There is a thread somewhwere, I am sorry to say I don't have my notes at hand, but it is easily explained. The Vms text is a sequene of Latin abbr., in fact a shorthand.The MA did not develop its own sh., but used the common abbr. system.The best example we know are Luther's Tischgespräche, where the scribes turned Luther's German into abbr. Latin.
You have to dissolve the abbr. and start guessing what the scribe meant.
I have very few complete text passages at present that I an satisfied with, that is why I don't give anything out and there are lots of things I don't understand. As far as I can see, there is nothing very interesting, a fact which does not drive me on.The Herbal texts for example seem to be more or less quotaions of the current handbooks. Some parrts seem to be preparatorry work for quaestiones literaure
