I have a couple that look pretty good now. Then I tried one, which
differs from the others in having a repeated A section, and it insists
on taking a whole line for the incipit. I have played games with
nobreak, and it just moves the terrible spacing to farther down in the
file. This is true on both 1.3.129 and 1.3.136.
Here's the one that looks terrible:
\header {
composer = "John Dowland";
crossRefNumber = "1";
footnotes = "\\\\Original clef C on third line\\\\(2) original is d quarter
note";
tagline = "Lily was here 1.3.129 -- automatically converted from ABC";
title = "XVII. A shepheard in a shade\\\\Tenor";
}
wordsdefaultV0 = \lyrics {
_ _ A _ shep- herd in a shade, his play- ning made of love and lo- vers worng,
un- to the fai- rest lasse,
un- to the fair - est lasse that _ _ trode on grasse, and thus be _ _ gan
his song.
Re- store re- store my heart a-
gaine, which love by thy sweet sweet lookes hath slaine, least that in- forst, in-
forst by your dis - daine, by your dis- daine
I sing fie fie on love, fie fie fie on love it is a fo- lish thing.
}
wordsdefaultV1 = \lyrics {
_ _ Since _ love and for- tune wil, I ho- nour still, your faier and love- ly
eye, what con- quest will it be,
what con- quest will _ it be, sweet _ _ Nimphe for thee, if I for _ _ sor-
row dye.

In contrast, here's the one that looks roughly the way I want it to:
\header {
composer = "John Dowland";
crossRefNumber = "1";
footnotes = "\\\\Original clef C on first line";
origin = "From The Second Booke of songs or Ayres of 2/ 4/ amd 5/parts: with
Tableture for the Lute or orpherian, with the Violl de Gamba.";
tagline = "Lily was here 1.3.129 -- automatically converted from ABC";
title = "V. Mourne, mourne,\\\\Canto";
}
wordsdefaultV0 = \lyrics {
_ _ Mourne, mourne, day is with dark- nesse fled, what heaven then go- vernes earth,
oh none, but _ hell in hea- vens stead, choaks with his mistes our mirth. Mourne
mourne, looke now for no more day nor night, but that from hell, Then all must as they
may in _ darke- nesse _ learne to dwell. But yet this change, must _ needes
change our de- light, that
thus the sunne, that thus the Sunne, the Sun should _ har- bour with the night.

Can anyone tell me how to get the first one to look like the second
one, except for having the repeat bar?
