133rd PSALM IN COURT.
TAKE THAT TO HEART,” SAYS MAGISTRATE.
A number of Jews who had quarrelled and wore concerned in summonses for assault were before Air Cairns at North London Police Court. After hearing the evidence his worship addressed the parties as follows: “Tou are all Jews, and I commend to you the 133rd Psalm, which reads as follows:
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the board, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to, the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountain of Zion; for there the Lord commanded the blessing; even life for evermore.
“Take that to heart,” added Mr Cairns. “Go away, and don’t quarrel any more.”
