You need to give it more opportunity to find breaks.  A quick fix, since you 
are not actually using bars, would be to change your time from 5/4 to 1/4.  
Alternatively, for more control, you could sprinkle '\bar""' at lots of 
sensible break points (every _divisio_, for a start); to reduce the clutter, 
you could do this by defining 'pipeSymbol = \bar""', and then inserting '|'.

(Personally, I would prefer Lilypond to treat _divisiones_ as barlines anyway.  
From a performance point of view they may have a different meaning, but from a 
music formatting point of view they are largely equivalent, including their 
implications for such things as note spacing, the possibility or desirability 
of line breaks and the termination of the effect of accidentals.)

Best wishes,
Matthew
