No, this is about the stars or 'recipes' section,
ff. 102 - 113 or thereabouts (this is from memory).
First I thought there are two dialects, but one
main difference between about half the pages and
the other half is the occurrence of the 'word'
qokeey which is either very frequent or non-existent.
Again, on f.58 (which has also got stars in the 
margin) on one side the word appears 6 times and
on the other not at all.

It's just got to mean something :-)

Cheers, Rene
