There are many repeated phrases in the VMS (of 4, 5 and 6 
words), but the author(s) has taken steps to obscure them. 

Spaces have been moved and individual symbols added (either
systemically or arbitrarily) to hide the repeated 
information. 

I read somewhere that the arbitrary addition of symbols to 
the beginning or ending of words was a technique used in 
Etruscan to make it harder for the uninitiated to read.
