Latex: reducing vertical margins in quotes and poetry

In latex, using begin{verse}

and end{verse}

, there is a one-line space between the verse and the surrounding text (top and bottom). How do you change the space here?

This is probably not the best way to do it, but it works.

In the preamble, define a new medium called "tight" that moves the text up the line height before and after the medium of the verse.



\newenvironment{tightverse}
{\vspace{-1ex}\begin{verse}}
{\vspace{-1ex}\end{verse}}

Then, in your document, enter the text in the \ begin {tightverse} and \ end {tightverse} as usual.
