kin with a clean grater; take eight eggs, (leave out two
of the whites) half a pound of loaf sugar, beat it very fine, put it to
your eggs, and beat them for an hour, put to them half a pound of
clarified butter, and four ounces of almonds blanch'd, and heat them
with a little rose-water; put in the juice of the oranges, but mind you

fine flour, a little milk, about a quarter of a pound of sugar, a

slices about the thickness of a shilling; (you may take out the core

stew-pan, or any other deep pan; then take your apple every slice
