Question: How do I find higher eigenvalues for an ODE BVP

Question:How do I find higher eigenvalues for an ODE BVP

My Maple worksheet is attached below - where I am solving two quantum mechanics problems, trying to find the eigenvalues for certain potentials.  Using a previous post in Mapleprime (https://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/221629-Can-Maple-Find-Solution-To-Eigenvalue),  I saw how to get the lowest eigenvalue.  My question is how using numeric solutions, I can get the higher eigenvalues and corresponding solutions.  Is there a way to specify that e (the eigenvalue) has to be in a certain range.  I tried to specify assumptions (e>0.6), but that didn't work.  I know that for the second problem (using the shooting method) that the 4 lowest eigenvalues are 0.184358, 0.70747, 1.2065, 1.5625.  Thank you very much for you consideration.
