9 Take any tender Plummes, and put them in an earthen Pot, and put your Pot into a Pot of seething wa∣ter, and when they are dissolved, straine all the thin wa∣ter from them through a faire Cloth, and set the Liquor by to make Quiddnie of; then straine the pulpe through a piece of Canvasse; then take as much Sugar as the pulpe doth weigh, put to it as much water as will melt it, and boile it to a Candy height: Then boile the pulp of the Plummes very well upon the Coales, and put it, and the Sugar hot together, so boile them with stirring; then lay them upon a Pie plate, and fashion it, and dry it as before; put some pulpe of Apples amongst the the pulpe of Plummes, else it will be tough.
