the contents of the remembered registers is restricted to 50 lines. If
you want to store more, you can

:set viminfo='20,<1000,s10,h

in your ~/.vimrc. This will allow you to store 1000 lines per registers.

Or you can use the clipboard to store the yanked lines between
subsequent invocations of Vim.

Jürgen
