There is a crib on page f68r3: the name for the Pleiades (doary, BEEPed as doaro). Unfortunately it is not mentioned in the text. Which is not unexpected, as it probably was irrelevant for whatever astrology is discussed in the book.

Not quite.
Even if someone assumes that this labels the handful of stars here, it not necessarily means "Pleiades"; it could also mean "seven", "the seven sisters", "the bright ones" or anything else.
As long as we have no idea about the source language or accent and it's specific naming for this "obvious" star constellation, that cannot work as a crib.
Bad luck again.
