match.match(original_text, ["when", "the", "world", "is", "mud-luscious", 
"the", "little", "lame", "balloonman", "whistles", "far", "and", "wee"])

This produces incorrect results, failing to match all the way to the end of "wee" (let alone "whistles"):

[(25, 92, 'when the world is mud-\nluscious the little\nlame balloonman\n\nwhistle')]
