Test text for connecting script?

I'm currently in the early stages of working with a calligrapher to digitize a connected script. I'd like to give her some good sample words or phases in order to start producing helpful sample texts.
Does anyone have dummy text that they use for this kind of project (something that gives good coverage over common and unique pairs)?

Not dummy text, but useful to test all possible connections.

Cool, that seems helpful when I get a bit farther along.
Since my first post was kind of ambiguous, I'm looking for text that has covers as (potential) unique joining pairs.0 -
I thought about such a text to start a handwritten font. The problem is that necessary connections differ from scribe and used language.0
