In order to assign more than one syllable to a single note with
spaces between the syllables, you can surround the phrase with
quotes or use a @code{_} character. Alternatively, you can use
-code the tilde symbol (@code{~}) to get a lyric tie. The lyric
-tie is implemented with the Unicode character U+203F, so be
-sure to use a font for this glyph which actually contains it.
-Freely available fonts with a lyric tie are, for example,
-`FreeSerif' (a Times clone), `DejaVuSans' (but not
-`DejaVuSerif'), or `TeXGyreSchola' (a Century Schoolbook
-clone).

When a melisma occurs on a syllable other that the last one in a

hyphenated line. This is indicated by placing a double hyphen,
