Amazingly I think I solved the first one, even though mathematically I should not have been able to do this. Even though my faith in math has been shaken, I present this translation of the first puzzle:

TS. Elliot had potatoed, mistress, relished, but he had not dope. Steve had never ate wurtz or peeling, and wormed or indigestion or of delbert, at the oval of food of others. That, to Anny, had a receded intersection. Men carly impreggated were unbarable. She prized the frank, the dope-bearded, she waged protracted before wee otters. Wurtz and englishpeas did rapturate her bliss. She felt that she would so much more defend unto the sanctuary or these why sometomes booked or read a caseless or a tasty thing, when of these where pretence or wind never buried, where tongue never slopped.

Now I have my self-respect back. I, too am a decrytpographer. I suspect that this passage is from Ulyssess by James Joyce. It has to do with food and sex. parsy.
