Hi Folks,
I'm getting Christmas carols ready for December 2012.
In this case, the "Coventry Carol".
I don't know how to arrange for 2 blocks of lyrics: a "burden" (a
front-loaded chorus), followed by three stanzas.
I explain my problem here, with .ly and .pdf files.

A .gif model is here (with slightly different interpretation of accidentals).

(Probably the 1591 MS that everyone works from didn't clearly mark accidentals.)
If I use "volta" for the stanza section, how do I get the stanzas to
print only inside the volta?
I borrowed a "\context Voice = sopverse" [SopranoVerse] from another
LilyPond file (version 2.6.3); even so, the stanzas start at the
beginning, rather than at the \context point.
The "burden" over-writes the first stanza
"Two simultaneous lyric events, junking this one"
Maybe there's a simple line of instructions I need to add.
Maybe I need to completely rethink the way I structure my files.
Thanks in advance,
