We study the processes e{sup +}e{sup -}{yields}2({pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}){pi}{sup 0}{gamma}, 2({pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}){eta}{gamma}, K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma} and K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{eta}{gamma} with the hard photon radiated from the initial state. About 20 000, 4300, 5500, and 375 fully reconstructed events, respectively, are selected from 232 fb{sup -1} of BABAR data. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective e{sup +}e{sup -} center-of-mass energy, so that the obtained cross sections from the threshold to about 5 GeV can be compared with corresponding direct e{sup +}e{sup -} measurements, currently available only for the {eta}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} and {omega}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} submodes of the e{sup +}e{sup -}{yields}2({pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}){pi}{sup 0} channel. Studying the structure of these events, we find contributions from a number of intermediate states, and we extract their cross sections where possible. In particular, we isolate the contribution from e{sup +}e{sup -}{yields}{omega}(782){pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} and study the {omega}(1420) and {omega}(1650) resonances. In the charmonium region, we observe the J/{psi} in all these final states and several intermediate states, as well as the {psi}(2S) in some modes, and we measure the corresponding branching fractions.
