If you are typesetting Srila Prabhupada's books, then I suggest you use the

BBT programs HJ and PP (or BOOK).

 

> Nearest I can come up with is to centre the first line and inset

> the 2nd by 5mm towards the right; align the 3rd with the 1st; and

> have the 4th the same as the 2nd. But what a trip.

 

You could also insert an Em Space (or 4 normal spaces) in the beginning of

the 2nd and 4th line, left adjust the verse and then indent the whole verse.

(The PP or BOOK program does this indentation automatically with an error of

less that 1 mm).
