+Sometimes it is appropriate to have one stanza set
+to the music, and the rest added in verse form at
+the end of the piece. This can be accomplished by adding
+the extra verses into a @code{\markup} section outside
+of the main score block. Notice that there are two
+different ways to force linebreaks when using
+@code{\markup}.
+
+@lilypond[raggedright,verbatim,quote]
+melody = \relative c' {
+e d c d | e e e e |
+d d e d | c1 |
+}
+
+text = \lyricmode {
+\set stanza = "1." Ma- ry had a lit- tle lamb,
+it's fleece was white as snow.
+}
+
+\score{ <<
+ \context Voice = one { \melody }
+ \lyricsto "one" \new Lyrics \text
+ >>
+ \layout { }
+}
+\markup { \column{
+ \line{ Verse 2. }
+ \line{ All the children laughed and played }
+ \line{ To see a lamb at school. }
+ }
+}
+\markup{
+ \wordwrap-string #"
+ Verse 3.
+
+ Mary took it home again,
+
+ It was against the rule."

@c TODO - this isn't such a great place for this note, but I can't
@c find a better place without rearranging a lot of lyric stuff.
@c It's yet another thing to look at post-3.0.
