A previously developed extension of the quasistatic approximation which allows for the broadening of hydrogen lines by low-frequency fields is applied to the first four Lyman lines of hydrogen, ionized helium, CVI, and ArXVIII. It is demonstrated numerically that the low-frequency Stark broadening is Gaussian in the case of relatively small dynamical corrections.
