Lemon Sponge.

Put into a pint of cold water onehalf ounce of leaf gelatin, the thinly pared rind of two lemons and one-half pound of loaf sugar; set over the fire till the sugar is dissolved, then let simmer without cooking for ten minutes, or a little more; strain into a basin and add the juice of the lemons; leave It to cool and as It begins to set whisk in the whites of three eggs, previously whipped to a very stiff froth; whisk all together lightly till spongy, then turn on to a glass dish and serve or mold first and then* unmold and serve.
