NOW THE FIRST ALLOCATION WHICH SHOULD BE
FOR THE GATE
The whole sixty should be hung in the larder. Then according
to that method whereby the cellarer distributes from month to
month in thirties, so the porter should make his distribution by
ones through each several week. And just as the cellarer does not
move the leftovers from place to place, neither should the porter
do it; but he should carry to the gate whatever should be
needed, and what is left over he should leave there. And we have
arranged to add eight swine above the number of weeks in a
year, which are fifty-two, so that, as need arises, he can draw
upon the extra ones and not touch those allotted to future weeks.
