(The following example will not make much sense unless viewed in
a "monospace" typeface such as Courier.)

When I used KWIC the output looked like this:

a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve

PAST EVE AND ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE     A LAST A LOVED A LONG THE RIVERRUN,
ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A LAST A LOVED   A LONG THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE AND
EVE AND ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A LAST   A LOVED A LONG THE RIVERRUN, PAST
A LONG THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE AND    ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A LAST A LOVED
LOVED A LONG THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE  AND ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A LAST A
LOVED A LONG THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE  AND ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A LAST A
THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE AND ADAM'S,   FROM SWERVE A LAST A LOVED A LONG
PAST EVE AND ADAM'S, FROM SWERVE A   LAST A LOVED A LONG THE RIVERRUN,

FROM SWERVE A LAST A LOVED A LONG    THE RIVERRUN, PAST EVE AND ADAM'S,

It was all caps, of course, (we're talking IBM punch cards here!) and
the text was wrapped so that the context showed on *both* sides of the
alphabetized key words.  I do not remember whether articles,
prepositions, etc. were omitted.
