Stir together, till very white, a pound of sugar, half a pound of
butter--then add eight eggs, beaten to a froth, (the whites and yelks
should be beaten separately,) the grated rind of two lemons, and the
juice of half a lemon. Stir in gradually a pound of sifted flour. Line a
couple of cake pans with white buttered paper, turn the cake into them,
and bake it in a quick oven.
