constant repetition was an excellent way for monks to learn and pass on the words of Buddha

Yes, I understand now…thanks Aloka-D. It seems very foreign to us nowadays I suppose to read text which is written down in this fashion, but I can see how the constant repetition would aid fixing it in the memory now you come to mention it - never really thought about the reason for it before . I’ll try and read some of them a bit later on. Which ones are best to start off with?
