Set text content for all <p> elements:
The text() method sets or returns the text content of the selected elements.
When this method is used to return content, it returns the text content of all matched elements (HTML markup will be removed).
When this method is used to set content, it overwrites the content of ALL matched elements.
Tip: To set or return the innerHTML (text + HTML markup) of the selected elements, use the html() method.
