--    The use of 
line 0 of fld "textLines"
--    is the same as
before line 1 of fld "textLines"
--    or 
before fld "textLines"

thus

put "preamble" into line 0 of fld "textLines"
put cr into line 0 of fld "textLines"
put "this is a separate line now" before fld "textLines"
put "NOTE:" before line 1 of fld "textLines"
