        Right.  But my stuff is so small that it will easily fit on
        one page.

BELOW:  I should note(pun intended) that I used Eluze's suggestion
      \markup \vspace #12        (actually #1, for me)
Using
      \markup { \vspace #12 }    (with braces)

causes my version 2.14.2  to spit out a bunch of error messages and
quit in disgust<g>.
