Vach Nacht

The Chida writes:
"Harav Tzemach Tzarfati was sick for two years, suffering from immense pain. A great miracle occurred and Hashem sent an angel to heal him. He later related that Eliyahu Hanavi came to him and told him that if he accepts upon himself to learn Torah the night before the bris of every child in the city, he will be healed. He accepted the resolution upon himself and was instantly healed. From that day on, on the night preceding every bris in the city, he would to go the place where the milah was to be held and learn Torah there the entire night. This I heard from a Talmid Chacham who heard it from an elderly man who was in Rav Tzarfati's house at the very moment that he was healed."
