I think authors of the MS spoke that language (some crazy form of Latin) and they didn't need to translate anything form regular Latin.
Then process of encoding therefore is pretty straightforward, for example (different sample from f14r):
falescōruī consulō, mensifōrus(?) illus, compōtōrūra illī
All sounds are clear here, only c in first word is pronounced as [ts], I think.
Removing all unnecessary vowels, leaving obligatory ones (endings) we have:
flscruī consulō, mnsfrs ls comptrur lī
Encoded with glyphs (first and third s are encoded with y rather than f because they are near tall letter; escape o before t):

farmerjohn,
my question to you is one I would also ask to all other proposed solutions.
The problem is that your method cannot have been used to 'encode' real Latin, or at least so it seems.
To encode the phrase: "falescōruī consulō, mensifōrus illus, compōtōrūra illī"
is not very interesting to me, because it means nothing.
It did not exist before you just wrote it down.
To convert the Voynich MS to meaningless text is very easy, and there are an infinite number of
ways of doing it.
