unsettling divisi lyrics

[dadadharma @dslextreme.com]

I have been unsuccessful in ending the dashed slur for divisi lyrics.

This is the melody for "Silent Night".
The English translation of the third stanza is ametrical and so the
dashes slur is needed,
but this is followed by two melismatic phrases at the end that need solid slurs.

TIA,

David Olson
