Baked Pears

Peel, cut in halves, and core twelve large pears, put them into a pan with two dozen cloves, one pound of sugar, and nearly enough water to cover them. Bake them in a moderate oven till tender, keeping the pan covered; then place them over a slow fire and let them stew gently. Grate a little lemon peel over them and add more sugar if required.
