I don't have a the combo character sound for "s" understood, so I have "th" as substitute. I also have willow bark as, sallow bark, it has a dot along with the other unsure words.
Again, I don't understand that image you posted.
This is what Google Translate gives me for that sentence:
Tea of willow bark is good for stomach and liver ailments. Take one cup daily for ten days. Willow grows in open fields and river banks.

Tá tae coirt saileach go maith le haghaidh tinnis bholg agus ae. Glac cupán amháin gach lá ar feadh deich lá. Fásann saileach i bpáirceanna oscailte agus ar bhruacha abhann.
Is this a correct translation?
Is this close enough to the "Irish" that you believe the Author used?
You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. gave me the following phonetic transcription of the above Irish sentence using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA):
tɑ: te: kɪrʲtʲ salʲæx ɡɔ mahʲ lʲɛ haɣaj tʲɪnʲɪʃ wɔlɡ aɡʊs e: ɡlak kʊpɑ:n awɑ:nʲ ɡax lɑ: ar fʲæɣ dʲɛ:ç lɑ: fɑ: san salʲæx ɪ bɑ:rʲcæna ɔskalʲtʲɛ aɡʊs ar wrʊəxa awan
Is this how you would pronounce the above Irish sentence?
How would you transcribe that Irish sentence phonetically using the VMS alphabet? (You may use EVA or the Voynichese font, whatever is more convenient.)
Thank you, and all the best --stolfi
