Alphabet on Page 1?

[nihon.no.yume]

Hello nihon.no.yume, welcome to the forum.

Whether it is the beginning of an alphabet or not is hard to say, but I agree that it most likely belongs to the original text and was not written afterwards.

Thank you for the welcome and the reply ^_^

It's very strange right? I actually just noticed (I got a little overly focused on the top as I've been trying to analyze the pages one by one deeply) more sequential letters on the bottom of the page: 


there seems to be "o p q" and then "u" further down as some of the image has rubbed off. 

I just think it's genuinely interesting because I feel this may signify that the text is in fact translatable some how lol
