Is there a built-in function in Transcript that can be applied to a lump of
text, to extract a particular item by number from each.  In other words, is
there a built-in function that does a faster edition of this?

    function oneColumn t, n --> c
        put empty into c
        for each line row in t
            put (item n of row) & return after c
        end for
        return c
    end oneColumn

TIA,
