116v

[ReneZ]

Fortunately, a recent publication finally solves the mystery of the text on f116v.
(Nobody will ever guess which publication I mean )

Anyway:

With informed judgement, the words may read: mériton o’pasaban + mapeós (thanks is given to God for
the mappings: French, Galician, Latin, Spanish). The Greek sign of the holy cross ‘+’ is
commonly used as a Latin text symbol to represent faith in God, Christ, Christianity. The
circumflex accent ‘^’ beneath the final letter ‘o’ translates into a modern accented ‘ó’ making
the word ‘mapeós’ a preterite indicative verb form: i.e. associated with a past event.

Disclaimer:
Any resemblance with the clearly forbidden style form of sarcasm is purely coincidental
