Repeating words across line boundaries
#1
Examining the structure of the lines raised the question of whether word repetitions occur across line boundaries. I mean the following structure (one letter for a word):

Line 1:     a b c
Line 2:     c d e
Line 3:     e f g
...

I have examined 5 folios for the sample; f 46r, f56r, f78r, f84r, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
There were only two hits, both on folio You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. ("qokeedy" and "dar"). In total, all reviewed pages together have 1249 words. For 37043 words in the manuscript 59 hits can be expected according to the pattern described above. These are not many, but my expectation that such a recurrence never occurs has been refuted.
