In þe brode shelle putt youre stuff / but furst haue a sight

þat it be clene from skyñ / & senow / or ye begyñ to dight.

And what[167] ye haue piked / þe stuff owt of euery shelle

with þe poynt of youre knyff, loke ye temper hit welle,

put vinegre / þerto, verdjus, or ayselle,[168]

Cast þer-oñ powdur, the bettur it wille smelle.

Send þe Crabbe to þe kychyñ / þere for to hete,

agayñ hit facche to þy souerayne sittynge at mete;

breke þe clawes of þe crabbe / þe smalle & þe grete,

In a disch þem̅ ye lay / if hit like your souerayne to ete.
