Actually working, honest
Here are some word clouds germane to my thesis, based on use of helig (holy, adj), heleklich (holy, adv), and selig (blessed) in the Mechthild von Magdeburg.
Nouns modified by helig (plus the verbal phrase helig sin, to be holy):

The same, minus the nomina sacra:
Adverbial use of heleklich
Helig and heleklich combined, minus Nomina Sacra:
Collocations with selig
