Lemon Sponge

Mrs. Lambkin.

Two ounces of gelatine; pour over one pint of cold water; let it stand fifteen minutes; add half a pint of boiling water, three-quarters of a pound of white sugar, and the juice of four lemons. When the gelatine is cold, before it begins to get firm, add the well-beaten whites of three eggs; beat the whole fifteen minutes, until the mixture is quite white, and begin to thicken; then put in a mould first wet in cold water.
