I can only guess, however to me it looks as if LP tries to place a
linebreak where it interferes the least with the rythm of the words.
In your example you have many steady sylables with just one \augmentum
in the middle. In a way splitting it there seems the best choice as
otherwise you would split in the middle of some "flow". However without
the words to be sung to your chant this is just pointless guessing.

You could always insert \break where you think a break should occur.

Kind regards,
Michael
