```ts
import { Chart } from '@antv/g2';

const words =
  `This Is Just To Say\nWilliam Carlos Williams, 1934\n\nI have eaten\nthe plums\nthat were in\nthe icebox\n\nand which\nyou were probably\nsaving\nfor breakfast\n\nForgive me\nthey were delicious\nso sweet\nand so cold`
    .split('\n')
    .map((d) => ({ text: d }));

const chart = new Chart({
  container: 'container',
  autoFit: true,
});

chart.options({
  type: 'text',
  data: words,
  encode: {
    x: 0.5,
    y: (_, idx) => idx,
    text: 'text',
    color: (_, idx) => idx,
    opacity: (_, idx) => idx,
  },
  scale: { y: { type: 'point' }, color: { offset: (t) => 1 - t } },
  style: { textAlign: 'center', textBaseline: 'middle', fontSize: 16 },
  axis: false,
  legend: false,
});

chart.render();
```
