Here is an interesting bit of flourishing of Hebrew letters from a 250+- year old Torah Scroll form Vilna, Lithuania. The word is “round thing”. The round thing was the bread from Heaven which was given to the children of Israel to eat from Egypt to the Promise land.
Exodus 16:14 And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small “round thing”, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
“round thing”
