Montefiore visited Russia in 1872 and was received by Czar Alexander II. This special prayer to be said in Sephardic synagogues was composed for the occasion. There was a parallel prayer composed for the Ashkenazic synagogues in London.
The title page is also in English: "Prayer offered up in the Spanish and Portuguese Jews’ Synagogues of England, on Sabbath, July 13th, 5632 for the success of Sir Moses Montefiore’s journey to Russia."
