First you need to break each line into words. You'll need to decide on your rules for doing that. A simple approach would be to just break on whitespace. This assumes there are no hyphenated words at the end of a line. You'll also want to strip out punctuation.
Once you've got a word (or an array of them, if you used String.split), then just iterate over it and call HashSet.add for each one. There might even be a helper function in java.util.Arrays or java.util.Collections or in HashSet to add everything from an array.
