Crack four eggs in a bowl, add six tablespoons flour and one saltspoon salt. Sharply beat up with a whisk for five minutes, then gradually add one and a half gills cold milk, continually mixing for five minutes more. Lightly butter two large frying pans and thoroughly heat them on the fire. Divide the batter, spreading it all over the bottom and sides of the pans. Cook on the fire for one minute, then place in the oven for five minutes. Remove to the oven door, sprinkle a little powdered sugar over them, return to the oven for three minutes more. Remove, glide them on two different dishes, and serve with six "quarters" of sound lemon and powdered sugar separately.
