[b-hebrew] Special Glyphs at the End of Some Lines in the Manuscript of the Lengingrad Codex

At the suggestion of Christopher Kimball, I am rephrasing my question.

In the manuscript of the LC, some of the lines have odd glyphs at the end.
Here is an example from from folio 2v, column 2, lines 4-13:

As you can see they occur when the last word of a line quite doesn't 
make it to the edge of the column.
I assume their purpose is insure that one doesn't think that its a 
paragraph break.

But there are different glyphs used, and I am wondering what the meaning 
of these glyphs are.
