Rh What, Benjamin! Open the door to death! We all sball die at sunset! Menachem! Come forth! Come forthI Manasseh 1 Daniel! Esra Jes oppear at the windows.

Neighbors, what wild alarm is this?

Descend! Descend! Come with us to the house of prayer. Save himself whoao can I we all ahall burn.

Beseeah you brethren, calmly. Tell ns all! Mine aged father lies at point of death Gasping within. Ye 'll threat him in his grave With boisterou clamor.

Blessed is the man Whom the Lord calls nnto Himself in peace! Susskind von Orb and Rabbi Jacob come From the tribunal where the vote is- Death To all our race.
