- Hybrid prayer book and manuscript score for solo cantor, with the printed material excised from a Siddur (Ashkenaz-German rite; register text "Letteris, Tephilath Jescharim, 9. Aufl. Ausg. f. Deutschl.", and with the blessing of the monarch identifying William I, German Emperor (1797-1888; f. 73r-v)) mostly created to use as a cantor's book. The Anim Zemirot in this liturgy was recited on Friday evening (f. 25v-27v, romanized in this manuscript) followed by an additional Lekha Dodi for the Sefirah (end of the month of Nisan, until Shavuot). A manuscript prayer for Kaiser Wilhelm II (William II, German Emporer, 1859-1941; f. 142r-v: "Herrn Vater! Vor sonst hin obrigkeit ruhig..") is followed by the liturgy for the blessing of the new moon (f. 142v: "Neumondsweihe") and the procession of the returning the Torah scroll to the Ark (-f. 143r).
