The new paragraph chunk returns empty when the string being chunked does not contain the end of paragraph mark.

In the message box

put "The cat sat on the mat. The mat was on the floor." & return & "my second paragraph" into tText
put "***" & the first paragraph of tText & "***"

Result

******

Line still works as expected

put "The cat sat on the mat. The mat was on the floor." & return & "my second paragraph" into tText
put "***" & the first line of tText & "***"

Result

***The cat sat on the mat. The mat was on the floor.***

I have filed bug number 12527
