RE: VMs: Language on 1006106

["Larry Roux" <LRoux@xxxxxxx>]

as for the 'oladabas' lines:  It seems to me that the words are not necessary separated (maybe half spaces, if that):

an chiton ola sabath ??ltoth te tia teve portath .... 
six ? aug[?] mo?? vi[?] ahia ma ma
[voy: oror she?y] palthe? abren o nim gas mich o

I still see 'pax lebet roman notairer'  for the first line

Yes, the scripts do look very similar. I've traced out the writing as best I
can, and put the results at:
http://www.geocities.com/jgroveuk/voynich/oladabas.jpg 

Several of the characters from the 'oladabas' script are also present in the
'malhau' text.

Regarding the 'oladabas' text, I find the words which are usually
transcribed as 'marix', 'morix', 'maria', 'six', 'vix' to be interesting,
since they remind me of the near-repetitive nature of normal Voynichese.
(E.g. qotedy qokedy qokeol chedy shedy). 

The 'ri' part of 'marix' looks to me like a somewhat disconnected 'm' with
the central stroke shorter than the other two, and is possibly the same
character as seen near the end of the first line of text on the page.

But what does it all mean? :)
