Updated: you could try the following variants

let font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 48)
var body: some View {
    ZStack {
        ForEach(locations) { run in
            Text(verbatim: run.string)
                .font(Font(self.font))
                .border(Color.green)
                .offset(x: 0, y: -self.font.lineHeight / 2.0)
                .rotationEffect(.radians(run.angle))
                .position(run.point)

            Circle()  // Added to show where `position` is
                .frame(maxWidth: 5)
                .foregroundColor(.red)
                .position(run.point)
        }
    }
}

there is also next interesting variant, use ascender instead of above lineHeight

.offset(x: 0, y: -self.font.ascender / 2.0)
