Answer 1

(Updated to include @Socowi's execellent speed improvement)

With any $SHELL that supports it (dash/zsh/bash...):

find . -name "*.txt" -exec $SHELL -c '
    for i in "$@" ; do
        echo "$i"
    done
' {} +

Done.

Original answer (shorter, but slower):

find . -name "*.txt" -exec $SHELL -c '
    echo "$0"
' {} \;
