Notating Plainchant/Free Verse

I would like to insert plainchant/free verse into a section of choral work I have. It's TTBB and there are only about two bars where I want plainchant. I am unsure of what sort of notation to use so until I figure it out, I just have two minum noteheads (Without stems) stretched apart from eachother to fit the text below.

Any suggestions would be appreciated :w00t:

A while back, I had to create a service book for our Schola Cantorum at church to simplify the singing of Compline, the bedtime service of worship in monastic communities, and formerly in most Catholic Churches. This involved transliterating quite a bit of Gregorian chant out of the old neumes or "square notation."

If your method works for you, it is perfectly acceptable. I found that difficult in longer recitations.

What I did was rather than use the minim notehead, I used quaver noteheads instead, one for each syllable, similarly to how it is often done in square note notation, making each measure as many beats as it needed to be to accommodate the contents and hiding the time signature. I also have done that in my Proper Mass for the First Sunday of Advent: the chant incipits for the cantors are a notehead for each syllable, and the thorough composed sections are as normal.

Thankyou, i'll just keep what i've got then. Thanks
