The Voynich Manuscript

The Voynich Manuscript has baffled scholars ever since its discovery in 1912. But I've been reading it all this week and I might have made some breakthroughs, I think. If we look at this page (page 10, in the manuscript) it appears to say And I said to mother that she need not cry but she could not stop her tears because of what she had seen. "Bryan of The Crossing Sea! His face will haunt me until I die" she cried. And then she died. I laid her body between the lilies and watched her sink beneath the waters of the lake. I vowed revenge I have no idea what it could mean though. And look at this later page, about 50 pages later (page 70) I'm pretty sure this says: At the moment of climax in our unnatural congress Bryan screamed. My seed was within him, and it was potent, and soon the flowers that were my sons and daughters burst forth from his throat like so many thirsty members eager for air and sunlight. They choked his screams to silence, and I had had my revenge. I was just glad Mother was not here to see it The only other page I could see anything in was page 100. Her ubb was held aloft by my slender fingers, and I exulted to god and all who else would listen. The rest of the room fell silent, and I slowly became aware of an atmosphere of embarrassment and awkwardness. I let her ubb fall from my fingers, and left the stage. I wonder if this is the first recorded useage of the word "ubb". All in all, I think this could be quite an important discovery, really. David N Guy, Phd (Inversions and Dimensions)
