快刀
明末濟屬多盜，邑各置兵，捕得輒殺之。章丘盜尤多。有一兵佩刀甚利，殺輒導窾。一日捕盜十餘名，押赴市曹。内一盜識兵，逡巡告曰：“聞君刀最快，斬首無二割。求殺我！”兵曰：“諾。其謹依我，無離也。”盜從之刑處，出刀揮之，豁然頭落。數步之外猶圓轉，而大讚曰：“好快刀！”

Topics
In a corpus of ca. 3100 stories from the strange tales collections Zibuyu, Xu Zibuyu, Yuewei caotangbiji, Liaozhai zhiyi, Yetan suilu, Ershilu and Xieduo an LDA-based topic modeling algorithm was asked to identify exactly 50 topics. The algorithm calculated the probability of each of the 50 topics to appeaer in each of the stories. Below are given the Top 5 topics in decending order of their probabilities for the story above.
