cover them with clarified butter.

a quarter of an ounce of beaten mace, the same of nut-
meg, pepper and salt to your taste; the crumb of two
penny loaves and two large handfuls of parsley shred
small ; then cover it with thin slices of fat bacon, and
roll vour beef up very tight, and bind it well with pack- },
thread ; boil it four hours ; when it is cold lard it all
over, one row with the lean of ham, a second with cu-
cumbers, a third with fat bacon ; cut them in pieces ?
about the thickness of a pipe shank, and lard it so that
it may appear red, green, and white; send it to the table
with pickles and scraped horse-radish round it; keep it
in salt and water, and a little vinegar.—You may keep ? :
it four or five days without pickle.
