I don't think the "i" in "mich" could ever have been "l". It has a serif, the same as the other "i" letters on the folio. In fact, this long leading serif (also called an "approach stroke") on "i" is one of the distinctive characteristics of this person's handwriting style.

Here are some examples of the letter "i" with a long approach stroke:



The letter "l" (ell) would not have a tickmark that was so prominent on the left and not at all visible on the right.


There are scrapes in the parchment running through the long-ess in "so" but I don't see any scrapes around the "i" in "mich".
