This is a manuscript of prayers to be recited on the evening of Hoshana Rabba, which is the seventh day of Sukkot. The manuscript is a selection of Psalms, out of order, complimenting the themes of the day and the piyutim. the theme of the day is often penitential and therefore some of the liturgy contained in the manuscript is penitential (for example, the piyut "Raḥamana idkar lan," f. 4v).
