Yes, but there is more to it than just the first word and the last word. 
 The first word is straightforward enough, except that sometimes it 
might consist of more than just one word.  But the last word does not 
refer to the actual last word on the page, but the last "headword" of a 
dictionary entry which also might sometimes consist of more than one 
word.  But it's moot since there are no such fields available.
