Prosciutto-orange Popovers

Eternity is a sea without bottom and banks. After millions of years, there is not one minute in eternity wasted; and the damned must be ever burning, but never consuming, always dying, but never dead. The fire of hell is such, as multitudes of tears will not quench it, length of time will not finish it; the vial of God’s wrath will always be dropping upon a sinner. As long as God is eternal, He lives to be avenged upon the wicked. Oh eternity! Eternity! Who can fathom it? Mariners have their plummets to measure the depths of the sea; but what line or plummet shall we use to fathom the depth of eternity? The breath of the Lord kindles the infernal lake (Isa 30:33), and where shall we have engines or buckets to quench that fire? O eternity! If all the body of the earth and sea were turned to sand, and all the air up to the starry heaven were nothing but sand, and a little bird should come every thousand years, and fetch away in her bill but the tenth part of a grain of all that heap of sand, what numberless years would be spent before that vast heap of sand would be fetched away! Yet, if at the end of all that time, the sinner might come out of hell, there would be some hope; but that word “Forever” breaks the heart. “The smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever.” What a terror is this to the wicked, enough to put them into a cold sweat, to think, as long as God is eternal, He lives forever to be avenged upon them!

23:25:42 GMT Measure all of your ingredients.  Generously grease 6 cups
of a popover pan. Put the pan in the oven and  preheat to 450 degrees.
Remove the pan from the oven as soon as it  is hot.  Stir together the
flour and salt. Whisk in the milk, eggs and melted  margarine until the
mixture is smooth. Do not overbeat. Stir in the  prosciutto and orange
peel. (The batter can be prepared an hour in  advance.)  Ladle the
batter into the hot pan and bake in the preheated oven 15  minutes.
Turn the heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake 15-20  minutes, until
puffed and browned. Never open the oven door during  the baking time as
the popovers will deflate.  Remove from the oven and run a knife around
each popover. Remove from  the pan and pierce each with a knife.  Makes
