I'd guess that the text was generated from a grammar, rather than by a
dissociated-press type algorithm.  Two examples of "generate text from a
grammar" are the dada engine[1] with its famous grammar, the pomo
generator[2] and my own Novelwriting[3] for Python, which gave me 15
minutes^Wseconds of fame with "rottenflesh"[4]. (grammar at [5])
