No, I provided the paragraphs immediately preceding and following the one tiny paragraph you want to pretend is all the man wrote. It's called context, cully.
A while back I tried a similar exercise. I gave the whole of that chapter minus the TF, then invited people to work out purely from the flow of the text - no preconceptions - where the TF passage ought to fit. I don't recall anyone taking up that gauntlet.
