It turns out that you irregular spacing has nothing to do with the
breathe signs.
The problem was that your setting of
\override Lyrics.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0 . 0)
in \ScoreSettings only applied to the first line of lyrics (I was
actually a bit
surprised that it applied to any of the Lyrics contexts at all).
Please read in the manual on how to do settings that apply to all Lyrics
contexts
in a score, for example. Then, you will rather come up with something like
\layout {
\context {
\Score
skipBars = ##t
}
\context {
\Lyrics
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0 . 0)
}
}
as a replacement for your current \ScoreSettings. Then, you will see
that the only
thing that affects the vertical distance between the lyric lines, is the
comma signs
that extend slightly below the base line of the font.

Okay, .ly and .pdf file attached. I want all lyrics line to have the same
small line spacing as the first two stanzas have.
Cheers,

Hi,
A while ago, I posted to this list about how to include a breathing sing
into the lyrics (not into the staff), and Mats gave me the solution:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-11/msg00532.html
However, I'm still fighting with the issue (in lilypond 2.8.7), because
that solution causes a rather large margin below that one lyrics line (it
seems that for the calculation of line spacing the \raise is simply
ignored).
Is there any solution to this?
Thanks a lot,
Reinhold
PS: Sorry that I can't attach the test file to this posting, as the gmane
webinterface does not allow you to attach files...
