Register or Login to view.About consistency in glyph shapes: has it been mentioned that both the -e- and the -n in valden look different than those in ubren? The -n could possibly be explained by an end-line flourish. I can't find an explanation for the -e-shape in walden though.
You're right: in contemporary German manuscripts (like the Cod. Sang. 754 in the year 1466), both types of -en (with and without flourish) are written, but I wasn't sure about the -e in valden either:
Also, the "an" in the sentence "so mag man mer essen und trinken" may be the reason why Helmut Winckler said that the first word of the spell is "anchiton" and not "michiton." Overall, a large number of letters (l,g,d,b,n,m) and ligatures ("an", "ch") appear to be the same in this German manuscript and f116v.
