Subject: formating paragraph question

Hi,
for formating a limerick I'm using the code:
\startnarrower
\startlines
\switchtobodyfont[ant,9pt]
The Swiss kicked him out on his ass.
M. Papon will no longer pass
\hskip1.3em For a free man. Long due,
\hskip1.3em Will a sentence come through?
We hope so. It should be a gas.
\vskip1.5ex
\hskip2em David Franks
\stoplines
\stopnarrower
I was trying to define paragraph like:
\defineparagraphs[limeryk]
[n=1,before={\startnarrower\startlines},after={\stopnarrower\stoplines}]
\setupparagraphs[limeryk]
[style={\switchtobodyfont[ant,9pt]}]
but when compile, become a warning (error?):
! Extra }, or forgotten \endgroup.
\stopsmaller ->\par \egroup
\@@allimerykna ->\stopnarrower
\stoplines
\stoplimeryk ->\getvalue {limeryk}
\egroup
l.69 \stoplimeryk
Through, the resulting pdf looks good.
And the second question:
is there a way to format automatically these 5 (optionally, with author name, 6)
limerick lines, that is add (in macro) \hskip for 3-th and 4th line?
1 The Swiss kicked him out on his ass.
2 M. Papon will no longer pass
3 \hskip1.3em For a free man. Long due,
4 \hskip1.3em Will a sentence come through?
5 We hope so. It should be a gas.
\vskip1.5ex
6 \hskip2em David Franks
Greetings,
Grzesiek
