To bread-crumbs and flour, three ounces of each, Add three eggs and six ounces of suet. Chopped fine, and one-sixth of a nutmeg, or i»ore, So long as you don't over do it. A good pinch of mace, and of cinnamon ground, Or in other words carefully grated; Half a pint of new milk, a spoonful of salt, A teaspoon I ought to have stated. To this add some raisins (Malaga) well stoned, And Borne currents washed clean and washed nicely; Of each half ft pound, or aa some people cay, .'•■■'■ Of either eight ounces precisely. Then of citron and lemon an ounce and a half, Half the former, and one of the latter ; Four ounces of sugar—the moist kind will do, Which will form an exceeding rich batter Or mixture. The eggs to » cream should be beat, With the spices, and then, by degrees, The milk may be added according to taste, And the other ingredients to please. Now, taking for granted the pudding is made, And thq water ie boiling like fon ; Tie it up in a cloth, pop it into the pot, And boil, sever, hours, till done.
