Vent is Decorated

The vent hole of the coffin  is being decorated with pastry that gives it the appearance of a crown.  The receipt (recipe), To bake Sturgeon Pies to be eaten hot, describes the pie being bak’d fill it up with in winter butter, verjuyce and sugar.  This decorated hole would be the portage for the mixture.
