Bath Buns

(England.) Mix 1 pound flour, a tablespoonful of yeast, and 1 cup of milk; let it rise overnight, or for several hours, near the fire; add 6 ounces of melted butter and 4 eggs, well beaten. Knead all, and let it rise again for about an hour. Make into balls as large as a peach, press the tops, and lay in some currants and candied peel. Dust with sugar, and let rise for 10 minutes; bake in moderate oven 3/4 hour.
