[Sca-cooks] Natural Magick as a Culinary source?

[Jeff Gedney]

In Europe, "Corn" is a "generic" term for Grain.
(Just as "Pulse" is a "generic" term for peas and beans)

So read this as 
"In the ancient days they made Bread of diverse kinds of grain and 
beans."

There are SO damn many more things I want to try in

It's killing me!!!

Upon the hempen tackle ship-boys climbing;
Hear the shrill whistle which doth order give
To sounds confused; behold the threaden sails,
Borne with the invisible and creeping wind,
Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea,
Breasting the lofty surge: O, do but think
You stand upon the ravage and behold
A city on the inconstant billows dancing;
For so appears this fleet majestical,
Holding due course to Harfleur. 
  - Shakespeare - Henry V, Act III, Prologue
