1 Make sure you have lynx (a text based browser) installed
2 Open a terminal and type

lynx -dump http://www.tricksterbook.com/ArticlesOnline/Dowsing.htm > /tmp/dowsing.txt

3 You can then print/view the file /tmp/dowsing.txt

The neat thing is that lynx puts references to the images and the hyperlinks in the text in case you want to refer to them.
