Having thus named the sort of things used for the two courses, the reader will
think of many others. For removes of Soup and Fish one or two joints of Meat or
Fowl are served; and for one small course, the articles suited to the second
must make a part. Where Vegetables and Fowls, are twice dressed, they add to
the appearance of the table the first time; three sweet things may form the
second appearaace without greater expense.
