... or, if you want to have the illusion of being able to talk to LilyPond in English, equivalently:

Perfect!  Thank you, all!

I got as close as the Span_bar_engraver in Internals but figured ChoirStaff had to suppress it.  Now it looks obvious.

BTW, the source was "Still, Still, Still" in the book "Alte deutsche Volkslieder" by Hans Müller published in 1916 by Germanistische Presse, New York.  All 99 songs in the book follow this convention.
