(LITURGY). - Seder Tephiloth KeMinhag Ashkenaz VePolin. Edited by David b. Menachem HaKohen. ff. 10. Hanau, 1628.       *Bound with: Eleazer Ben Judah of Worms. Sepher Haroke’ach [ethics, rabbinic law and custom]. ff. 113. Hanau, 1630.. Two works bound in one volume. Each with elaborate historiated title-page. Printed in two columns without Nekudoth. Previous owner’s signature on first title, browned, few light stains, lower corner of few leaves expertly repaired. Modern calf. 8vo. Vinograd, Hanau 50 and 58. Hans Jakob Henah, Hanau: v.d. Only one other copy recorded of these Hanua prayers, found in the Bodleian Library (see Steinschneider no. 2130).      According to the poetic title page, the publisher previously issued a pocket Shulchan Aruch (Hanau, 1627) for travelers to study from. He now wishes to perform another public service for the benefit of travelers, providing them with an easily portable pocket prayer-book. Indeed the first prayer that appears after the morning Berachoth is Tephilath HaDerech (the wayfarers prayer). It was apparently published without Nekudoth in order to save space.
