@ Pestrasti: I agree with you. I sometimes wonder if this can really be a proper text, but then I come across texts like this:
Extremely monotonous, very repetitive, and if you then encrypt it, you basically have Voynich...
"Dare nach neme man haberen gedrosgenan unde ungedrosgenan. unde adech. unde ebah. unde
uarn. unde emeizun. unde uueremüdun. unde heidernezzelun. unde
mache ein bahd unde bade in demo drie daga. unde nemo danne
gingibern. uuin. unde honak. unde dero uuiȥun uuidun loub. unde
kirseboumes loub. unde phirsihboumes loub. unde salbeiun. unde
rutun. unde storchessnabel. unde berehtram. unde mideuuirz.⁴
iegeliches einero unzun geuuiht. unde mache ein drank. unde drinke
daz in demo uuarmen bade. so uuirð es imo büz."
Thats a short excerpt from:
Die kleineren althochdeutschen Sprachdenkmäler (The smaller Old High German linguistic monuments)
Gegen Gicht "Against Gout".

Translated from modern normal German with deepl:
Then take oats, threshed and unthreshed, and adech, and ebah, and uarn, and emeizun, and wormwood, and heath nettles, and make a bath and bathe in it for three days. Then take ginger, wine, and honey, and white willow leaves, and cherry tree leaves, and peach tree leaves, and sage, and rue, and cranesbill, and bertram, and midewurz: one ounce of each. Make a potion and drink it in the warm bath; this will make him better.
