Question: How can this pencil of conics be coded in Maple?

The worksheet below is a failed attempt to produce the display of a pencil of conics tangent to four lines. The worksheet contains an image of the display.

Comments within the worksheet describe the details of the attempt and the solve command which fails.

dhaar provided an answer to a similar question which I posed on November 12 (its web address is in the worksheet) and I hope s(he) will reply to this one as well.
