In a concordance, to blank out the search-words with asterisks, just press the spacebar (or choose View | Blanked out). Press it again to restore them.

The point of it…

A blanked-out concordance is useful when you want to create an exercise. This one has give and put mingled:

... could not ********** me the time ...

... Rosemary, ********** me another ...

... would not ********** much for that ...

... could not ********** up with him ...

... so you'll ********** him a present ...

... will soon ********** up smoking ...

... he should ********** it over here ...

Concord will give equal space to the blanks so that the size of the blank doesn't give the game away.
