Put on a couch, then a second cloth, the fold on the outer edge; a third, the fold on the inner edge.
Cover your cupboard, put a towel round your neck, one side lying on your left arm; on that, 7 loaves of eating bread and 4 trencher loaves.
In your left hand a saltcellar, in your right the towel.
Set the saltcellar on your lord’s right, and trenchers on the left of it.
Lay knives, bread, spoons, napkins, and cover ’em up.
To wrap your Lord’s bread stately.
Square the loaves; take a Reynes towel 2½ yards long by the ends; put it on the table, pinch up a handful of one end, and lay it between 2 towels, and on it lay your 6 or 7 loaves bottom to bottom.
Put salt, cups, &c., on the other tables.
See that your Ewery is properly supplied, and your ale-pots kept clean.
