Now that I've done the whole tenor part, it comes back to me why nobody
uses \cadenzaOn as a way to get unbarred music. It doesn't by default
do any linebreaking. So you can put in "\set Score.barAlways = ##t",
but when I did that in this particular piece, it broke a dotted rhythm.
They actually did print that way in the sixteenth century, but nobody I
know in the twentyfirst century wants to read something printed that
way. So you're only going to do this in situations where you don't mind
doing the line breaking manually.
I posted the result of this on my blog as Lilypond vs. Petrucci, round

The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who
make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the
mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the
spirit and to confine man in the bonds of Hell.
