RE: VMs: Rene: Stat questions



	One other minor stat of note is that B-tokened pages have an abundance of
'l' characters as
first character in a line - while A-tokened pages don't.

I agree with this. I have been collecting statistics for each page based on
my own
analysis of the internal structure of the words and it seems to me that
there are,
so to speak, overlapping isoglosses in the manuscript. For instance, EVA s
as final
character in a word is uncommon in the nymphs section but quite common in
herbal
A and B (exact figures available on request, but the small size of the pages
makes them
difficult to treat as normalised samples).
