Subject: Framed text and page breaks

Colleagues
I've been struggling today with trying to change paragraph width of
selected paragraphs within the body text of a novel I'm typesetting. I
thought that the way to do this would be by framing the text that I
would like to reduce the paragraph width off. However the framed text
doesn't seem to honour page breaks and just seems to disappear off the
page bottom. Also the framed text starts on a new page which I do not
want to happen.
Any suggestions on how I may go about solving this problem?
Best Wishes

Here is an example tex file which shows these effects:
\definepapersize[book][width=5.06in,height=7.81in]
\setuppapersize [book][]
\setuplayout
[width=middle,backspace=12.5mm,cutspace=12.5mm,height=middle,topspace=12.7mm,bottomspace=12.7mm]
\starttext
\dorecurse{2}{\input ward \blank}
\midaligned
\framed[frame=off,width=5cm,align={width,nothyphenated,verytolerant,stretch},before=\blank]{\dorecurse{4}{\input
ward \blank}}
\dorecurse{2}{\input ward \blank}
\stoptext
