The verse environment is in fact the list environment, i.e. it adds
positive \topsep and \parsep. I would put the following definition to
the preamble (outside the \dn group):

\newcommand\mysetup{\topsep 0mm \parsep 0mm \relax}

Then I will start the environment with:

\begin{verse}\mysetup

I do not fully understand what exactly you want to achieve.

I suspect that use some editor with word wrap set so that you see a
nice paragraph which is in fact not a paragraph but a very long line.
The preprocessor reads the text line by line, contains a buffer of a
limited size and if the size is exceeded, the program crashes. Please
set word wrap off and cut your paragraphs to lines of reasonable
length by pressing ENTER, or, use another text processor that will
break the lines by ionserting CRLF automatically. This is important in
the TeX world generally. Remember that the percent sign is used as a
beginning of a comment that extends to the end of a line. If your
editor breaks line at its own will for display only, TeX will not see
the same text as you. Thus parts of your text may fall into comments
or part of your comments may be typeset. Thus be sure that the editor
shows you the text as it is. If you type an extremely long line, it
must be displayed as such, not as a nice paragraph.
