ksh: How to store each output line into a different variable?

Example output:

/tmp/generatelines.sh
line1
line2
line3
line4

I want each output line assigned to its own variable, ie:

"line1" --> $a
"line2" --> $b
"line3" --> $c
"line4" --> $d

Is this possible without writing to a temporary file?

Thanks
