Going into her rooms, she looked at her tear-stained face in the glass and powdered it, then she sat down to supper. The monks knew that she liked pickled sturgeon, little mushrooms, Malaga and plain honey-cakes that left a taste of cypress in the mouth, and every time she came they gave her all these dishes.
'Oh! she said aloud, 'he's quiet, but his wits is gone. It an't no matter wot you say. 'Anythin' to tell afore you goes, my dear? asked Mrs Gamp, setting her bundle down inside the door, and looking affectionately at her partner. 'The pickled salmon, Mrs Prig replied, 'is quite delicious. I can partlck'ler recommend it. Don't have nothink to say to the cold meat, for it tastes of the stable.

Having skimmed the gravy, mix some thin melted butter with it. If convenient, you may in making the stuffing, use a large proportion of chopped mushrooms that have been preserved in sweet oil, or of chopped pickled oysters. Cold ham shred fine will improve it.
