Or you could loop over the varlist defined by the phrase, as in the
following example (this has to be run all at once) :

clear
set obs 1000
gen y=uniform()
forvalues i=1(1)50 {
	gen phrase`i'=uniform()
	gen x`i'=uniform()
}
local i=1
foreach x of varlist phrase* {
	constraint define `i' [`x']=1
	local i=`i'+1
}
local j=`i'-1
cnsreg y phrase* x*, constraints(1/`j')

Hope this helps,
