I think I understand but I'm not sure how to translate that to my problem.

Here is a sample of the text:

  <div class="field field--name-field-collection-artist 
field--type-entity-reference field--label-inline">
  <div class="field--label">Artist</div>
        <div class="field--item"><a 
href="../../collection-artist/alfred-leslie.html" hreflang="en">Alfred 
Leslie</a></div>
      </div>

  <div class="field field--name-field-artist-dob field--type-string 
field--label-inline">
  <div class="field--label">Date of Birth</div>
        <div class="field--item">(b. 1927)</div>
      </div>

  <div class="field field--name-field-item-date field--type-string 
field--label-inline">
  <div class="field--label">Date</div>
        <div class="field--item">1976</div>
      </div>


The three grep patterns are:

(?<=Artist</div>
        <div class="field--item">)(.*)(?=</a></div>)

(?<=Date of Birth</div>
        <div class="field--item">)(.*)(?=</div>)

(?<=Date</div>
        <div class="field--item">)(.*)(?=</div>)

The current results are working well independently (the text in blue) - but I'd 
like them to be returned in sequence (together) with a tilda separating them:

result A ~ result B ~ result C
