Plain Chocolate

Have an earthen pot on range with a half pint cold water. Take six (if desired strong, four if desired not quite so strong) tablets of the prepared chocolate, break into powder and add to water, then stir with wooden spoon until thoroughly dissolved. Pour a quart boiling water over, briskly mix with wooden spoon and allow to gently simmer for ten minutes, frequently mixing meanwhile. Pour into a hot pitcher and send to table with six chocolate cups and fine sugar separately.
