Broiled Larks

Truss and prepare the required quantity of larks; brush over with beaten eggs, sprinkle with plenty of breadcrumbs, place them on a gridiron, and broil over a very clear fire. Lay some slices of bread on a hot dish, dress the larks on them, pour a little rich brown gravy around, and serve.
