.fic/commentary: The Iohannes Cash Poem for cesperanza's "Written by the Victors"

First, so many thanks to everyone who responded to Se Narsaugir. I'm all verklempt! This has been so much fun for me, to get to be an academic and a fangirl all at once.

Many of you wanted to know about Iohannes Cash, and so by way of thank you for your wonderful replies, here is the manuscript, text, and commentary for the so-called Cash Poem in the Liant codex.

Once again, this couldn't have been done without cesperanza's Written by the Victors and the support she's given my odd little commentary-type ventures into her universe. sheafrotherdon has recorded the Skani translation of the poem (links to which are in the commentary), and huge, amazed hugs to her for that, as well as Y!M handholding and cheerleading.
