[Sca-cooks] A 16th century cook image

[wheezul at canby.com]

It's a moralistic treatise on death, as in Mr. Death has you on his dance
card no matter who you are.

The gist of the poem that accompanies this, Death calls the cook fat, and
I think tells him that he will be the roasted venison for worms.  The cook
of course is frightened and says he'll give up making food taste good.
