I apologize for my ignorance, I'm still confused with this one (see
attachments)...

\def\doCountLines#1\par{%
       \begingroup
       \setbox\scratchbox\vbox{#1\par}%
       \getnoflines{\htdp\scratchbox}%
       \global\parlines=\number\numexpr\noflines
%       (step 2: P\space\the\parnumber, \the\parlines\space L)
       \ifnum \parlines = 1
               (step 3: P\space \the\parnumber, \the\parlines\space L)%
       \fi
       \endgroup#1\par}
\def\CountLines{%
       \global\parnumber=0
       \EveryPar{%
               \advance\parnumber by 1
%               (step 1: P\space\the\parnumber, \the\parlines\space L)
               \ifnum \parnumber = 1
                       \expandafter\doCountLines
               \fi}}
