VMs: Lettering and handwriting



with regards to similiar handwriting between the VMS script and this one that i have found
 
The manuscript seems to have been written in the 13th century and the 14th, (i have seen dates relating to 1281 and 138something) and is a combination of peoples works... each author has a section with their name on... however i cannot make out the name for the author of this particular section..
 
the 'sh' (EVA) seems to be stroked/penned in a very similar way on both the VMS and this script.
 
although i think http://image.ox.ac.uk/list?collection=bodleian (the manuscript is msdigby76, and page 42) should get you to the whole manuscript
 
the whole manuscript is written by several people including roger bacon, and possibly edited by Dee
however the page i have described is NOT written by bacon...
 
if people could take the time and have a look and give me some feedback that would be great...
 
i also have small gif images of the character comparisons in question if anyone would like me to email them to save time searching the text!
 
Thanks
 
Colin
