The "grabbing the text" part is the difficulty, especially if it's
dynamic. I know of no way to "address" plain text (files) with simple
javascript (from another source). What I've done in the past is put my
text, which is static, in a .js file and call it from a regular html
page. The text itself had to be loaded into variables inside the .js
file so it could be manipulated from within the html page. You might
say it was a "poor man's include".
This doesn't sound like what you want but you should be able to accept
that if you've ever been married.

Contrary to popular belief, it is believable.
