Mr. Cody, a native of Michigan,
The Haggadah, the ritual for
the home service held on the eve
of the first and second day of
Passover, closes with Chad Gadya,
the "Song of the Kid." It tells of
"one only kid, which my father
bought for two zuzim." Then the
cat ate the kid, the dog bit the
cat, the stick beat the dog, the
fire burnt the stick, the water
Quenched the fire, the ox drank
the water, the slaughterer killed
the ox, the Angel of Death slew
the slaughterer, and the Lord rid
the world of the Angel of Death.
It is generally assumed that this
song was borrowed from or fash-
ioned after some popular song or
ballad. But the late Dr. Israel
Abrahams had rightly remarked
that "the origin of the poem Is
of less import than the interpre-
tation put upon it by those who
admired and cherished it, and
converted it into a devotional
hymn."
