Easy
People will say that I have the virtue of a jackass—and so be it!— when they hear that after four unsuccessful attempts, I finally succeeded on the fifth and sixth in cooking a capon in a bladder. The first four were sacrificed to Comus, the god of the table: I had not taken all the necessary precautions, and the bladders burst in the boiling water. But it is a dish worth the trouble, since capon, in itself an excellent dish, becomes delicious when cooked in this manner.
