Remove the rind of two lemons, and cut the lemons in small pieces; add two cups of sugar, one pint of boiling water, three tablespoons of corn starch; mix with a little milk; put them all together, and boil slowly for five minutes. Cut into small bits four oranges; put in a deep dish, ready for the table, and sprinkle over them a little fine sugar; pour the lemon compound over them. When cold, whip whites of two eggs; add a very little sugar. Flavor with lemon extract. Put in ice box to cool.
