Tikun Chatzot – Venice, 1784 / Kinot – Reggio, 1822 / Manuscript of Prayers
* Tikun Chatzot "For associates who listen and mention G-d…". Venice, [1744]. Printed pamphlet [18 leaves]. On the title page is the year the association began Tikun Chatzot (for which the pamphlet was printed), 1780. This date does not coincide with the date the booklet was printed.
* Bound at the end of "Tikun Chatzot" are handwritten leaves (square Italian script with vowels), containing an Italian translation of the last piyut of the printed pamphlet; prayers upon visiting a cemetery, and the prayer "Please G-d, we have sinned… and denied your G-dliness and have denied David your king…" [Prayer sent from Jerusalem to Busseto and first printed by Rabbi Aharon Berachya of Modena, see attached material]. [10] pages.
* Following the handwritten leaves, is a printed pamphlet [7 leaves], with two kinot for Tisha B'Av: "B'Mar Evke" by R' Shimshon Chaim Nachmani; "Oya Etzak" by the printer R' Chananya Elchanan Chai Cohen Margio. [See Bibliography CD Listing 0303687. The pamphlet is listed as an appendix to a copy of Tikun Chatzot printed in Reggio in 1822].
