Potted Pigeons
Stuff your pigeons and brown them in butter
then put them into a sauce pan with the livers,
and some pepper, salt, & a few cloves, all pounded.
An onion chopped fine, and water enough to
cover them. When they begin to stew put in a
very small piece of butter, a little thickening of
flour & water and a glass of claret wine - stew them
until tender.

Stewed Pigeons
Cut them open on the back and season them
well with pepper and salt; put a layer of
pigeons round the pot, then a layer of salted
pork, in thin sliced that have been fried, then
a layer of crackers soaked in water, and so on
in succession: Cover them with water, and let
them simmer or boil gently.

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
