border-width and border-left-width

If border-left-width is non-zero, the border is only applied to the left side. Otherwise, if border-width is non-zero, the border is drawn around the whole block.

font-family

The verse block doesn’t use a fixed-width font by default, which can affect the layout if the content relies on columns. You can change verse blocks to use a fixed-width font (not necessarily a monospaced font) using this setting.

verse-cite

The keys in the verse-cite category control the arrangement and style of the citation in verse blocks.
