Regular Expressions - Multiline option

I thought I understood this topic rather well until I ran the following procedure

Private Sub Tes
Dim oMatch As Matc
Dim oMC As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches("abc" & vbCrLf & "abc", "abc$", RegexOptions.Multiline
For Each oMatch In oM
Console.WriteLine(oMatch.ToString
Nex
oMC = Regex.Matches("def" & vbCrLf & "def", "^def", RegexOptions.Multiline
For Each oMatch In oM
Console.WriteLine(oMatch.ToString
Nex
End Su

Based upon my understanding, I should get two matches for each loop. Instead the first loop finds one match and the second loop finds two matches. Either I misunderstand something or I would expect the first loop to find two matches. Where am I wrong?
