Well, all right. There is enough there to
allow one to encrypt any message. The
test is: take a text in some language,
encrypt it, see if the resulting cipher
text exhibits properties similar to those
of Voynichese. I imagine that, in this
case the initial 1, 2, 3, 9 of two-digit
codes will be encrypted as gallows. Or
should it be a 10-symbol alphabet? 

Whichever the choice is, the test is
simple. Shall I apply it my plaintext?

Actually... this is very tempting.
