Text Input:

Sweet Moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams;
I thank thee, Moon, for shining now so bright;
For by thy gracious, golden, glittering gleams,
I trust to take of truest Thisbe sight.
But stay! O spite!
But mark, poor knight,
What dreadful dole is here!
Eyes, do you see?
How can it be?
O dainty duck! O dear!
Thy mantle good,
What, stain’d with blood?
Approach, ye Furies fell!
O Fates, come, come,
Cut thread and thrum,
Quail, crush, conclude, and quell!

Output:

Sweet Moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams;
I thank thee, Moon, for shining now so bright;
For by thy gracious, golden, glittering gleams,
I trust to take of truest Thisbe 1/3
sight.
But stay! O spite!
But mark, poor knight,
What dreadful dole is here!
Eyes, do you see?
How can it be?
O dainty duck! O dear!
Thy mantle good,
What, stain’d with 2/3
blood?
Approach, ye Furies fell!
O Fates, come, come,
Cut thread and thrum,
Quail, crush, conclude, and quell! 3/3

Fine tuning

Let's add a couple “hard breaks” (two blank lines) before “I trust to take” and also “Thy mantle good”.

This prevents an orphan word in slices 2/3 and 3/3.

Sweet Moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams;
I thank thee, Moon, for shining now so bright;
For by thy gracious, golden, glittering gleams,


I trust to take of truest Thisbe sight.
But stay! O spite!
But mark, poor knight,

Eyes, do you see?

Mastodon allows long URLs to only be consider 23 characters long—this option takes advantage of that.

URLs will be recognized as such if it begins with https:// and is followed by a space or new line.

Avoid:

Something (https://example.com/something)

by adding a space before the close parenthesis.

Something ( https://example.com/something )
