Hi Andrew,
please always provide a minimum working example (MWE) possibly together with a sketchup of what you wish to achieve.
Here is how I understood your problem:
%-- snip --
\version "2.19.59"
music = \repeat unfold 20 { c' }
verseI = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "1"
"[ qua ]" te ro go, "[a" ni -- "mæ]" in coe -- li "[culmi" -- "ne,]" da
}
verseIb = \lyricmode {
"[queis]" \skip 8 \skip 8 \skip 8 "[ a" ni -- "mis]" \skip 8 \skip 8 \skip 8 "[ gaudi" -- "is,]"
}
verseII = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "2"
re -- cre a bit, san gui nic "[e" -- i -- "dem]" guttu -- lam, si
}
verseIIb = \lyricmode {
\repeat unfold 7 { \skip 8 } "[e" -- is -- "dem]"
}
\music
\addlyrics { \verseI }
\addlyrics { \verseIb }
\addlyrics { \verseII }
\addlyrics { \verseIIb }

My Latin is nonexistent, so I don't know why this would be, but here's an example (transcribed as best I can) of what it looks like:1 [ qua ] te ro go, [a ni - mæ] in coe - li [culmi - ne,] da[queis] [ a ni - mis] [ gaudi - is,]2 re - cre a bit, san gui nic [e -i-dem] guttu- lam, si[e-is-dem]So, I need to be able to have two separate verses (I can do that per NR2.1.2), but how do I include the alternate words *within* each verse? Is there some voodoo I could do that would make such a thing possible?Thanks for the help,A
