REV. SYDNEY SMITH S SALAD.
To make this condiment your poet begs The pounded yellow of two hard-boiled eggs :
Two boiled potatoes, press’d through kitchen sieve, Smoothness and softness to the salad give.
Let onion atoms lurk within the bowl And, half suspected, animate the whole.
Of Mordant Mustard add a single spoon Distrust the condiment that bites so soon :
But deem it not, thou man of herbs, a fault,
To add a double quantity of salt ;
I our times the spoon with oil lucca brown And twice with vinegar procured from town And, lastly, o’er the flavour’d compound toss A magic soupcon of Anchovy Sauce.
Oh ! green and glorious ! Oh, herbaceous treat !
It would tempt the dying anchorite to eat :
Back to the world he’d turn his fleeting soul,
And plunge his fingers in the salad bowl :
Serenely full, the epicure would say,
Fate cannot harm me, I have dined to-day.
Lady Aberdeen.
