This is the proof of what I say:

In this astronomical table of a medieval book we see two small inclined lines above the letters that represent degrees (G) and minutes (M). Now we use the marks (º) for degrees, (') minutes and ('') seconds, but in thee Middle Ages two ('') were used for all angular measurements. It was just a symbolic way of representing marks of the sphere.
In the example that I have put, you can see how a tail rises in some of the second inclined lines. Can be seen on other pages of the codex. Is a symbol of the arc of the sphere.
On this page where there is also a column for arc seconds you can see the tail very clearly

In Eva-r of the VM script the tail of the inclined line starts from above, perhaps signifying a different position in the sphere than the one marked by Eva-n
