The following text is the text from the cipher key that is most consequential and that I am having the most difficult reading and identifying the person.
Their title appears to be "dominus", but who exactly they were I don't yet know. The same person occurs 3 times in the text. Once in the title of the cipher key indicating who the correspondent was. Once in the last line of the cipher key. And once in the nomenclature.
Obviously the first word of the last line is "zifra" meaning "cipher".
I wonder if I read the following words:
"davidis" or "danielis"
"oviglia"(Oviglio is a town in Piedmont???)
"dgoralo"/"dgorali/"dgoralus" (However, the first letter of this word is most mysterious. It looks like a "d", but maybe it is an "ol" or "os" or "oz" or "x" or something else.)
I wonder if we have the word "cum" in the title and last line.
Then in the last line we have something like "torpnhai".(Taurinorum was the name for Turin???)
