His Father being one of the +ablest <i>Cooks</i> in his time, and his first Tutor in the knowledge +and practice of Cookery; under whom having attained to some perfection +in this Art, the old Lady <i>Dormer</i> sent him over into +<i>France</i>, where he continued five years, being in the Family of a +noble Peer, and first President of <i>Paris</i>; where he gained not +only the <i>French</i> Tongue but also bettered his Knowledge in his +<i>Cookery</i>, and returning again into <i>England</i>, was bound an +Apprentice in <i>London</i> to Mr. <i>Arthur Hollinsworth</i> in +<i>Newgate Market</i>, one of the ablest Work-men in <i>London</i>, Cook +to the <i>Grocers Hall and Star Chamber</i>. His Apprentiship being out, +the Lady <i>Dormer</i> sent for him to be her Cook under +<span class="folionum added">A6v</span> +<!-- png009 --> +Father (who then served that Honourable Lady) where were four Cooks +more, such Noble Houses were then kept, the glory of that, and the shame +of this present Age; then were those Golden Days wherein were practised +the <i>Triumphs and Trophies of Cookery</i>; then was Hospitality +esteemed, Neighbourhood preserved, the Poor cherished, and God honoured; +then was Religion less talkt on, and more practised; then was Atheism +& Schism less in fashion: then did men strive to be good, rather +then to seem so. Here he continued till the Lady <i>Dormer</i> died, and +then went again to <i>London</i>, and served the Lord +<i>Castlehaven</i>, after that the Lord <i>Lumley</i>, that great lover +and knower of Art, who wanted no knowledge in the discerning this +mystery; next the Lord <i>Montague</i> in <i>Sussex</i>; and at the +beginning of these wars, the Countess of <i>Kent</i>, then Mr. +<i>Nevel</i> of <i>Crissen Temple</i> in <i>Essex</i>, whose Ancestors +the <i>Smiths</i> (of whom he is descended) were the greatest +maintainers of Hospitality in all those parts; nor doth the present +M. <i>Nevel</i> degenerate from their laudable examples. Divers +other Persons of like esteem and quality hath he served; as the Lord +<i>Rivers</i>, Mr. <i>John Ashburnam</i> of the Bed-Chambers, Dr. +<i>Steed</i> in <i> Kent</i>, Sir <i>Thomas Stiles</i> of <i>Drury +Lane</i> in <i>London</i>, Sir <i>Marmaduke Constable</i> in +<i>York-shire</i>, Sir <i>Charles Lucas</i>; and lastly the Right +Honourable the Lady <i>Englefield</i>, where he now liveth.</p> + +<p>Thus have I given you a breif account of his Life, I shall next +tell you in what high esteem this noble Art was with the Ancient Romans: +<i>Plutarch</i> reports, that <i>Lucullus</i> his ordinary diet was fine +dainty dishes, with works of pastry, banketting dishes, and fruit +curiously wrought and prepared; that, his Table might be furnished with +choice of varieties, (as the noble Lord <i>Lumley</i> did) that he kept +and nourished all manner +<span class="folionum added">A7</span> +<!-- png010 --> +of Fowl all the year long. To this purpose he telleth us a story how +<i>Pompey</i> being sick, the Physitians willed him to eat a Thrush, and +it being said there was none to be had; because it was then Summer; it +was answered they might have them at <i>Lucullus</i>’s house who kept +both Thrushes and all manner of Fowl, all the year long. This +<i>Lucullus</i> was for his Hospitality so esteemed in <i>Rome</i>, that +there was no talk, but of his Noble House-keeping. The said +<i>Plutarch</i> reports how <i>Cicero</i> and <i>Pompey</i> inviting +themselves to sup with him<ins class="punct" title=". for ,">, </ins>they would not let him speak with his men to provide any +thing more then ordinary; but he telling them he would sup in +<i>Apollo</i>, (a Chamber so named, and every Chamber proportioned +their expences) he by this wile beguil’d them, and a supper was made +ready estimated at fifty thousand pence, every <i>Roman</i> penny being +seven pence half penny <i>English</i> money; a vast sum for that +Age, before the <i>Indies</i> had overflowed <i>Europe</i>. But I have +too far digressed from the Author of whom I might speak much more as in +relation to his Person and abilities, but who will cry out the Sun +shines? this already said is enough to satisfie any but the malicious, +who are the greatest enemies to all honest endeavours. <i>Homer</i> had +his <i>Zoilus</i>, and <i>Virgil</i> his <i>Bavius</i>; the best Wits +have had their detractors, and the greatest Artists have been maligned; +the best on’t is, such Works as these outlive their <i>Authors</i> with +an honurable respect of Posterity, whilst envious Criticks never survive +their own happiness, their Lives going out like the snuff of a +Candle.</p> + +<p class="right"><i>W.

+<p>The printed book combined two systems of page numbering. Throughout +the book, the first four recto (odd, right-hand) pages of each 16-page +signature are labeled as A, A2, A3... These are shown in the right +margin. The left margin shows continuous page numbers, beginning with +signature C (p. 1) and continuing through the end of the +recipes (p. 461). In signature T, all page numbers were offset +by 4 (261-276 for 257-272). The printed number is shown in +(parentheses) followed by the corrected number in <i>italics</i>. Where +there are no page numbers, folio numbers added by the transcriber are +shown in [brackets].</p> + +<h4><a name="spelling" id="spelling">Spelling</a></h4> + +<p>Many compound words occur in up to three forms: with hyphen; as two +separate words; and as a single unhyphenated word. Hyphens at line +break were retained unless the word was consistently hyphenless +elsewhere. Missing spaces between words were supplied when +unambiguous.</p> + +<p><b>beatten</b>; <b>Dear</b> (for Deer); <b>galon</b>; <b>oatmel</b>; +<b>somtimes</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +These spellings are rare but each occurs at least once.</p> + +<p><b>Boyled</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +The spelling with “y” occurs <i>only</i> in the header for Section I. +Both “boil’d” and “boiled” are used in the body text.</p> + +<p><b>lay a lay of ...</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +The word “layer” also occurs, but “lay” is more common.</p> + +<p><b>Rabit</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +Note that the word is consistently spelled with one “b” <i>except</i> in +the Index.</p> + +<p><b>Snite</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +Probably a variant of “Snipe”, but in some books it is understood as a +different bird.</p> + +<p><b>roast, toast</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +Both words can be applied to meats.</p> + +<p><b>give it a walm</b></p> +<p class="inset"> +The word “walm” is always used in this construction. It appears to mean +“bring to a boil”.
