This lavish menu for a judges' dinner at an assize strains the mind as it tempts the palate. Among many other foods, it includes salads, stewed oysters, roast turkey, mince pies, boiled pigeons, roast tongue, fresh salmon, soused pig or veal, unspecified hors d'oeuvres, Westphalian bacon, fruit jelly, and custard—all followed by a second course and washed down with a choice of wine.
