How do you create lyrics for brief alternative notes, existing in repeated
sections (when there are not enough notes to justify duplicating the entire
section)? Here is a demonstration picture of what I am trying to do:

The red is what I can't figure, either with or without a second-verse of
lyrics. I cannot seem to add anything else without causing a problem. Below is
the lilypond code for the above image.Thank you for any advice.
(I am new to LilyPond, but I'm a programmer and have an excellent first
impression--and I was going to spend 90 bucks, when this is free??!!)
