stretch across

I mean, it seems to stretch right across the country.

A focus for power that stretched across the entire world.

He had already stretched a net across the river ahead of them!

Not far ahead I saw something that stretched clear across the river, which worried me for a moment.

He lay down on a wide bank that stretched across the end of the room.

The seat stretched all the way across the back of the bus.

Inside, the lobby stretches across the front of the building.

I stared down at him stretched across the bed, eyes watching me.

He looked around and saw that his shadow stretched long across the ground.

Its Gate is a line of fire that stretches across the river.
