Adding image before the "contains" using javascript

All we need is an easy explanation of the problem, so here it is.

Need help on this code below. I don’t want to replace the text on which I called in my "a:contains". The problem is where do I need to put the ::before on the script below.

Link: https://jsfiddle.net/onw7aqem/

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("a:contains(This is the text)").css("content", "url('https://i.picsum.photos/id/237/200/300.jpg?hmac=TmmQSbShHz9CdQm0NkEjx1Dyh_Y984R9LpNrpvH2D_U')");
});

<a href="#" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">This is the text</a>

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

How to solve :

I know you bored from this bug, So we are here to help you! Take a deep breath and look at the explanation of your problem. We have many solutions to this problem, But we recommend you to use the first method because it is tested & true method that will 100% work for you.

Method 1

Consider the following.

$(function() {
  $("<div>").css("content", "url('https://i.picsum.photos/id/237/200/300.jpg?hmac=TmmQSbShHz9CdQm0NkEjx1Dyh_Y984R9LpNrpvH2D_U')").appendTo($("a:contains(This is the text)"));
});

<a href="#" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">This is the text</a>

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

This creates a <div> element and appends it to the <a> element.

Note: Use and implement method 1 because this method fully tested our system.
