Regarding “umen”
You really have to decide: either the “u” in “umen” is a “u” or the ‘u’ in “putrifer” (red border)
And the “e” in “umen” maybe isn’t an “e”—you just have to compare it to the “e” in “fer.”
For all the “e”s in the entire marginal note, the right downward movement in the top of the “e” is inside the lower loop; only for this “e” is it clearly to the right of the very small loop....
