Taking a quick look at the underlying XML it doesn't look like there is an attribute on the paragraph element that will tell you which page it will appear on. The best suggestion I can give you is to have some placeholder text at the top and bottom of each page. Then search for the a certain instance of the placeholder text based on which page the user specifies. Once you have a starting point you could retrieve all paragraphs between the two placeholder paragraph elements.
For example, if a user enters in page two, you would search for the third instance of a paragraph that contains this placeholder text and then retrieve all paragraphs until you reach the next instance of the placeholder text. I know this isn't ideal, but its one workaround I could think of that might be feasible.
