observe a singular custom in praying. While the frog
recites the Psalms of David. or the prayers extract' voicee
them, the congregation frequently imitated by the"' for
or gestures the meaning of some remarkable paligarspraise
example, when the Rabbi pronounces the words,

rible tempest" occurs, they puff and blow to repribsteous
storm ; or, should he mention " the caps of the jig it OS

infrequently happens that while some are stall b°vi
