[Knox Mix <knoxmix@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Addendum to the first post.

Modifications to the Majority Vote Transcription -- Herbal only

Removed labels, marginalia, place holders for missing pages, and descriptors
Replaced commas with periods
Replaced exclamation marks with periods
Removed excess periods and spaces
Removed "&252" and "&253" (the Big Reds)
Removed all of 57v
Deleted this line: <66r.W.1>       otcheo.daiin.chty.yk**s.che.g.
Changed the first token on the fourth line of f1r from o'.oiin. to doiin
Changed the second line on f15v from
&****.chor.or.oro.r.aiin.cthy.*.ain.dar.
to
 *chor.or.oro.raiin.cthy.*ain.dar.
Changed each of the 416 remaining asterisks to "J"
Deleted two words with many J's from Quire Eight
Changed one uppercase S to "s" and one uppercase K to "k"

Among other alterations, I have tried replacing ch, sh, ckh, cth, cph, & 
cfh with single characters.

Comparing (visually) the two sets of data for the range 40-80 words for 
approach to binomial distribution, these "look" "about equal" to each 
other and compare well with a curve generated with ten times the data at 
zara (one trial only). A previous use of the full EVA transcription on 
the entire manuscript produced a vWLD curve that(visually)was not very 
different from one that was based on the same consolidations as above.
