I am typesetting Biblical quotations in paragraphs following the convention of the French Segond 21: where there is a verse break inside a paragraph, there is a light gray vertical bar, with the verse numbers at the end of the quotation (if it was an actually Bible, they would be at the margins).
Now, I am using double spacing between sentences, and it becomes ugly because the double spacing ends up preceding the vertical bar.
Is there a way of turning off the double spacing in a specific paragraph or even sentence break?
