Yes, I titled this post “the solution”. I am that confident that this is the meaning behind 116v.
I’ll even give you the whole thing upfront without making you read the whole post:
Roughly, it says:
poxleber un[d] ? pu tpfen
anrichten olla sebum un[d] oleum te tuo
coquere por tam n six mal iq
movieren wichs habiat magna usque ad articulorum
coccus wolsh u[nd] brey so nim galamich
goat's liver and for tropfen
prepare tallow and oil in your pot with (tea / herbs / or pitch?)
cook or boil it, only so much, pay attention (or leave overnight?)
six times the same as (not sure about this part, but I think x just means abbreviated in this word and mov)
stir in the binding agent, you should have a large amount for the joints rendered
[use] wool cloth [with this] paste, then take calamine.
I have an ending 8 as "m" in three of the words, but an interior 8 as "s" in one. I also have an ending 9 as the suffix -us.
I also solved two of the voynichese words as 'articulorum', abbreviated, meaning "for the joints" and coctus / coccus, meaning "cooked / rendered". The last word is not goat's milk, is gal'mich / galamich for calamine, but I believe the goat image is a reference to the tallow.

Actually, I’m going to go ahead and share this with the Voynich Ninja forum before I write the rest of this blog post. Even though I haven’t had much - if any - of a response to my posts there, I’m too excited to get this into the world (and I have to go pick up my kids soon). Have at it! More soon!
