Strophe endings denoted by a sof pasuḳ.

Nearly three strophes (ו-ד-ה) from יום עמדו לריב לפני עם סגולה (Davidson, TMHP 1877י) a poetic debate between wine and water by Judah ben Elijah, in which each strophe upholds an alternating side of a debate.

Each strophe has eight lines, seven rhyme and the last ends הו-; sporadically vocalized; a complete version is found in a bifolium, Cambridge 8 K15 9: the acrostic signature reads יהודה בן אליהו חזק.
