116v

[Gavin Güldenpfennig]

Guys, I´m not sure, but I think I have a complete translation for the folio 116v.

If I´m right with that, we can say, that somebody found the book on the banks of a small river (in a cave). He describes the book as that, what it is ... 

- made of vellum, seemingly powerful and he found it wet. 


As far as I interpreted the last (maybe unfinished) sentence "o nim gas mich (...)", he died when he wrote the sentences on 116v. But here I could be wrong.

He even tells us, where exactly he found it, but unluckily it does not help us with the exact language of the rest of the manuscript. 

The key for that place is "olabidas". 

No, not "oladabas". And the one of you, who wrote, that "ola" means "wave" was very close to the word´s (maybe) true meaning as I would say.

Furthermore, the writer of these lines seems to have German and maybe French ancestors, because he used 5 German and maybe one French word (but that is not as clear as it should be, even if it´s meaning is discovered). But they did not give us a hint, who he was. The rest of the text consists of a spoken Latin and the name of the River.
