From The Complete Family Piece.

‘Boil your Spinage well and green, and squeeze it dry, and chop it fine; then put in some good Gravy and melted Butter, with a little Cream, Pepper, Salt, and Nutmeg; then poach 6 Eggs and lay over your Spinage, fry some Sippets in Butter, and stick all round the Sides; squeeze one Orange so serve it hot.’
