Scald a codlin before it be ripe, or any other sharp apple, and pulp it through a sieve. Beat the whites of two eggs with sugar, and a spoonful of orange flower water; mix in the pulp by degrees, and beat all together till it produces a large quantity of froth.
There were, of course, exceptions as regards the latter, but I soon learned that a good deal of what was being said and done was more or less theatrical. Sincerity was to a great extent at a discount, and later years of experience in politics confirmed my impressions that the whole was a game to induce the people to think that their friend was Codlin, and not Short.
'O, nowhere in particular, replied Codlin, a little put out as it seemed by the question; 'I'm only anxious that you should think me so, and do me justice. You can't think what an interest I have in you. Why didn't you tell me your little history that about you and the poor old gentleman? I'm the best adviser that ever was, and so interested in you so much more interested than Short.
"A portrait of Notre Dame de Bon Lecours, I shouldn't wonder," said Jack; "but what had that to do with hot codlins: a codlin is a fish, is it not?" "I will explain that another time," said Willis, the shadow of a smile passing over his pale features. "The short and the long of the story is, that Sam once saw a ghost." "Well, tell us all about it, Willis."
'Depend upon that. I tell you what it's plain that the old man an't in his right mind 'If you haven't got anything newer than that to say, growled Mr Codlin, glancing at the clock, 'you'd better let us fix our minds upon the supper, and not disturb us. 'Here me out, won't you? retorted his friend. 'It's very plain to me, besides, that they're not used to this way of life.
With this remonstrance, the melancholy man, who was no other than Mr Thomas Codlin, pushed past his friend and brother in the craft, Mr Harris, otherwise Short or Trotters, and hurried before him to the single gentleman's apartment. 'Now, my men, said the single gentleman; 'you have done very well. What will you take? Tell that little man behind, to shut the door.
'I wish somebody would give you your supper, returned Short, 'for there'll be no peace till you've got it. Have you seen how anxious the old man is to get on always wanting to be furder away furder away. Have you seen that? 'Ah! what then? muttered Thomas Codlin. 'This, then, said Short.

A firm of solicitors, with a snake of a style Banghurst, Brown, Flapp, Codlin, Brown, Tedder, and Snoxton, they called themselves, and appeared invariably in the form of a small rufous cunning-looking gentleman with a pointed nose said vague things about damages, and there was a polished personage, her ladyship's agent, who came in suddenly upon Redwood one day and asked, "Well, Sir, and what do you propose to do?"
Codlin; no better, and fairer Fruit in the World; yet the Tree suffers the same Distemper, as the Pearmains, or rather worse; the Trees always dying before they come to their Growth. The Redstreak thrives very well. Long-stalk is a large Apple, with a long Stalk, and makes good Summer Cider.
Codlin, with the air of a discontented philosopher; "I know better now; p'r'aps I'm sorry for it. Look here, here's all this Judy's clothes falling to pieces again." The child, seeing they were at a loss for a needle and thread, timidly proposed to mend it for them, and even Mr. Codlin had nothing to urge against a proposal so reasonable.
