Then lay a clean fine cloth into another
mould of the same cise, and turn it into it, and then turn the skirts of
the cloth over it, and lay upon that a thin board, and upon that as much
weight, as with the board may make two pound or thereabouts. And about an
hour after, lay another clean cloth into the other mould, and turn the
Cheese into that; then lay upon the board so much, as will make it six or
seven pound weight; and thus continue turning of it till night: then take
away the weight, and lay it no more on it; then take a very small quantity
of Salt finely beaten, and sprinkle the Cheese all over with it as lightly
as can be imagined. Next morning turn it into another dry cloth, and let it
lye out of the mould upon a plain board, and change it as often as it wets
the cloth, which must be three or four times a day: when it is so dry, that
it wets the cloth no more, lay it upon a bed of green-rushes, and lay a row
upon it; but be sure to pick the bents clean off, and lay them even all one
way: if you cannot get good rushes, take nettles or grass.
