			==Translation==
			(very tentative and incomplete) Take parsley and grynde with cow's milk, medle it with eggs and lard ydyced. Take milk after that you have 'to done' and mix with it. And make from that diverse colours. If you will have yellow, add saffron instead of parsley. If you will have it white, use neither parsley nor saffron, but add thereto amydoun. ....
			Set it on the fire in as many vessels as you have colours and seethe it well and lay thes colours in a cloth first on, and sithen annother upon him.....

=== Notes ===
* ''Lete Lardes''. ''Lards'' in form of Dice are noticed in the process. See Lel. Coll. VI. p. 5. ''Lete'' is the Fr. ''Lait'', milk. V. No. 81. or Brit. ''Llaeth''. Hence, perhaps, ''Lethe Cpyrus'' and ''Lethe Rube''. Lel. Coll. IV. p. 227. But VI. p. 5, it is ''Leche''.
* ''to done'', i. e. done.
* ''myng''. mix.
* ''pownas''. Qu.
* ''turnesole''. Not the flower ''Heliotrope'', but a drug. Northumb. Book, p. 3. 19. I suppose it to be ''Turmeric''. V. Brooke's Nat. Hist. of Vegetables, p. 9. where it is used both in victuals and for dying.
