This problem is much better suited for an XML parser, and it makes your code
more readable as well.  Code snippet:

$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->loadHTML($txt);

$items = $dom->getElementsByTagName('p');

foreach ($items as $paragraph) {
    echo $paragraph->nodeValue;
    // You can also manipulate and update the nodeValue within this loop as
well
}
