Having looked at the stats on your site I come to a very interesting
conclusion. Either the method to hide or encipher the text was easily
modified or that these markers indicate a change in language. What I will
try to do now is to break down the table I produced by section to see which
links change. This will give some sort of clue but may take me a while. When
I get the results I will put then in the george boole site.

BTW One could assume that maybe the first 3 pages were say in Italian and
the next few in Latin. Maybe the other way round? Just a guess.
