Supplication
Eugenia Sokolinski
General description
A short prayer for (the souls) of individuals. It is not necessarily in the explicit of the text, but is sometimes written as an addition, in the margins or elsewhere. In most cases, it refers to the donor or owner of the book and his/her family members, but frequently it is difficult to understand who is meant.
Examples are:
-
