Plenty of people (myself included in 2006) have wondered whether the first letter on a line of Voynichese might somehow affect or control the words on that line. (For example, I wondered whether it might be a transposition cipher working with one of the gallows.)
Has anyone tried looking for this kind of thing?
To be short: yes, I did, but the words that make it difficult for me here are "affect or control other words".
Without going into depth there, there is no correlation that I've found between the first letter and the line following that,
except that the gallows signal a paragraph section.
