          and corresponding text:
        
        ste e --  lei --  son
        
        I get the attached screenshot.
    
    How have you attached the lyrics?  I think you are not using contexts 
properly, but I need to see what you are doing to help you with it.

I think you need ste __ __ e -- lei -- son in your lyrics to have the melismata 
put all three notes to the ste syllable.
