Does something like

\version "2.16.0"

\paper {
  footnote-auto-number = ##f
}

lorem = \markup { \justify { Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna
aliqua.  Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris
nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. } }

\book {
  \lorem
    \markup { Lorem ipsum \footnote "*" \justify { * Lorem ipsum dolor sit
amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore
et dolore magna aliqua.  Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation
ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. } dolor... }
  \score {
    \relative c' {
      a'1
    }
  }
  \pageBreak
    \markup { Lorem ipsum \footnote "*" \put-adjacent #X #LEFT \lorem "* "
dolor... }
  \score {
    \relative c' {
      a'1
    }
  }
}

give you ideas?

Many thanks! It works like a charm.

I was really upset by the quoted string as being the way to introduce the annotation and did not come to such a simple workaround. And I wanted to avoid the use of another variable in my project just for this particular case.

Thanks also for teaching me how to use \put-adjacent:
I can even type
Lorem ipsum \footnote "*" \put-adjacent #X #LEFT \justify {the long text} "* "

Nice way to put whatever plus text in the annotation.

Cheers,
Jean-Charles
