Crack the Code!


The following patristocrat-style cryptogram was sent to a guy named John. Therefore, it probably begins with "Dear John." You don't know anything more than that, except his romantic relationship has not been going well recently. Please try to recover the plaintext. The ciphertext has the letters grouped into sets of five, for ease of transmission.

Good luck!
