Why and how the text could be Bavarian
Example: 

To show what I mean, here is a real sentence from one of my MHG
comparison texts (a uroscopy / medical text):
 
  "Wer den harm recht schawen wil, der nem ein weiss glas vas,
  das lautter sey, vnd oben enger den vnden."
 
  (Translation: Whoever wants to examine the urine properly should take a
  white glass vessel that is clear, and narrower at the top
  than at the bottom.)

I am now assuming that all consonants are also represented as bigrams. However, this is practically nonsensical and would not work. Individual consonants are not bigrams. So this is still the simplified form, only now expanded to include consonants as bigrams. In other words, a token = V CC CC V
(Sch / ch are treated as a single bigram)

Wer         CC VV CC
den         CC VV CC
harm       CC VV CC CC
recht       CC VV CC CC
schawen  CC VV CC VV CC
wil          CC VV CC
der         CC VV CC
nem        CC VV CC
ein          VV CC
weiss      CC VV CC
glas        CC CC VV CC
vas         CC VV CC
das         CC VV CC
lautter     CC VV CC VV
sey          CC VV
v(u)nd     VV CC CC
oben        VV CC VV CC
enger       VV CC VV
den          CC VV CC
v(u)nden  VV CC CC VV CC

Stream:
CC VV CC  CC VV CC CC VV CC CC CC VV CC CC CC VV CC VV CC CC VV CC CC VV CC
 CC VV CC VV CC CC VV CC CC CC VV CC CC VV CC CC VV CC CC VV CC VV CC VV VV CC CC VV CC VV CC VV CC VV CC VV CC VV CC CC VV CC
