midmost

The midmost stood somewhat forward from the others and sundered from them, an island in the waters, about which the flowing River flung pale shimmering arms.

North of it, in the outskirts rose three low hills, the midmost crowned with a tower, the eastern-most casting a shadow almost to the distant river; and from these, eastward and southward, the city sloped.

Of the three booths into which the interior was divided, the midmost was reserved for the returning officer and his staff.

Here they stood, Old Saturn midmost, like a central peak Among the lesser hills that guard its base.

As the more important figures naturally occupy the midmost place in a pediment, their greater size comes in conveniently.
