replacing(ReplacingArgs e) mail merge happening for first tag only in the run, not for other occurrences in the same run

Hi i am trying do insert mail merge for some tags and below is the scenario that i am facing the issue i have a Run node with multiple occurrences of same tag for example : here i have “<<Sample>>” tag in three places in the same run

One day in May- << Sample >> swam about in a pond - << Sample >> asked every animal he met the same question << Sample >>.

Aspose works fine and mail merge happened for first occurrence only. once after the mailmerge call. not for other two fields below is how it shows :

One day in May- << Bob >> swam about in a pond - << Sample >> asked every animal he met the same question << Sample >>.

can you please help , below is my code

doc.getRange().replace(Pattern.compile("<<(.*?)>>"), “”, opts);
doc.getMailMerge().setFieldMergingCallback(new HandleMergeFieldInsertHtml());

public class ReplaceEvaluatorFindAndInsertMergefield implements IReplacingCallback {

Node currentNode = e.getMatchNode();
     if (e.getMatchOffset() > 0)
    currentNode = splitRun((Run) currentNode, e.getMatchOffset());
     ArrayList runs = new ArrayList();
    int remainingLength = e.getMatch().group().length();
        while ((remainingLength > 0) && (currentNode != null) &&
	 (currentNode.getText().length() <= remainingLength)) {
	 runs.add(currentNode);
	 remainingLength = remainingLength - currentNode.getText().length();
         do {
	 currentNode = currentNode.getNextSibling();
	 } while ((currentNode != null) && (currentNode.getNodeType() !=
	 NodeType.RUN));
	 }
           if ((currentNode != null) && (remainingLength > 0)) {
	 splitRun((Run) currentNode, remainingLength);
	 runs.add(currentNode);
	 }
            DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder((Document)
	 e.getMatchNode().getDocument());
	 System.out.println("builder : " + (Document)
	 e.getMatchNode().getDocument());
	 builder.moveTo((Run) runs.get(runs.size() - 1));
	 builder.insertField("MERGEFIELD \"" + e.getMatch().group(1) + "\"");
              for (Run run : (Iterable<Run>) runs)
	 run.remove();
             return ReplaceAction.SKIP;
}

    private Run splitRun(Run run, int position) throws Exception {
	if(run.getText().length() < position)
		position = run.getText().length();
	Run afterRun = (Run) run.deepClone(true);
	afterRun.setText(run.getText().substring(position));
	run.setText(run.getText().substring((0), (0) + (position)));
	run.getParentNode().insertAfter(afterRun, run);
	return afterRun;
}
