( Columbia Broadcasting System, 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."
