Nice! Thanks

Works, exactly what I asked. However there is another question

I want some particular multline to be arranged like

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
                                   bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
                                   cccccccccccc

So some combi of multline and align. What is the best way to achieve this?
