Actually on further review, my accent distinguishes more than these three.

     I        II         III         IV          V
    are      Lord       fault       not         what
            Mormon       all      prophecy      upon*
              for       upon*      father
                                  spotless

Upon falls in with III for the second syllable and V for the first.

Sorry, but I don't the appropriate IPA representations...
