Has it been mentioned that the writer corrected (?) part of the right column?
Additionally, I think it must be noted that the writer omitted "j" from their alphabet. Apparently for English, "j" was added to the alphabet in the early 16th century. I assume that when Marci was writing, his own alphabet likely included the "j". If this is true, then it is clear that he considered the MS older, and that he was trying to solve it rather than invent his own cipher, because he took into account that it would be without "j".
