PMX is written in creaky old FORTRAN.  It's possible but not easy to use
dynamic dimensioning, so I didn't do it.  Therefore, for many types of data,
including literal TeX strings, there are limits to the number of data items
per input block, per page, or for the whole score.  There is a table of many
of these limits on page 21 of the manual.  In addition to saving programming
labor by using static dimensioning, I saved more labor by not putting
explicit checks in most cases where a dimension could be exceeded.  (That's
a job for my programming assistant, who is on a long vacation).

As you may have guessed by now, you exceeded the maximum dimension for the
number of literal TeX strings per input block: 52.  AFAIK you are the first
person in the history of PMX to have done so.  I'll make a note to increase
this dimension in the next release, but meanwhile you can solve the problem
simply by breaking the offending input block in two.
