Thank you!

Hi, I want to to write a bit of code that randomly changes the the color of each character in a block of text to a different color from a preselected pallet of colors. I've figured out the code to randomly select a color from a predefined pallet, and I figured out how to split all the characters in a raw txt document into a list of individual characters, but I'm at a loss as to how to apply the two principles together to color each character in a block of text individually. Any help or suggestions are much welcomed.
Heres the code I have so far:

w=1000
h=1000
newPage(w,h)

colors=[(.349,.306,.251),(.576,.612,.255),(.961,.753,.031),(.851,.302,.196),(0,.702,.788)]

import random

fileName = 'toBeOrNot.txt'
textFile = open(fileName,"r")
wordText = textFile.read()
textFile.close()

box = (350,300,400,400)
myFont = 'Skia-Regular'
pointSize = 20

lst=[x for x in wordText]
print(lst)

r,g,b= random.choice(colors)
fill(r,g,b)
font(myFont, pointSize)
textBox(wordText,box,align="left")

Thanks in advance!
