Rigid VI
Rigid the Sixth was a devoted husband and father, and was also very fond of animals, in marked contrast to his predecessors who had spent most of their spare time shooting arrows into the wild boars who roamed the palace corridors. Rigid was also something of an eccentric; he invariably spoke English to his subjects but tolerantly allowed them to reply in their native Strine tongue. This democratic monarch's sense of justice was so fastidious that he treated even the royal alphabet with scrupulous fairness, and whenever he spoke he always allowed each letter to make at least on brief appearance

Egg
Egg One of the most comprehensive symbols, equally suggestive in a spiritual, physiological, and cosmological sense. Among other things, it stands for primordial chaos, the universal matrix, the great Deep, the Virgin Mother, and also for the kosmos or world egg produced from it. As chaos or space, it is the virgin egg, unproduced; this is fructified by the spiritual ray, and from it then issues the Third Logos. "The Virgin-egg being in one sense abstract Egg-ness, or the power of becoming developed through fecundation, is eternal and for ever the same. And just as the fecundation of an egg takes place before it is dropped; so the non-eternal periodical germ which becomes later in symbolism the mundane egg, contains in itself, when it emerges from the said symbol, 'the promise and potency' of all the Universe . . . The simile of an egg also expresses the fact . . . that the primordial form of everything manifested, from atom to globe, from man to angel, is spheroidal, the sphere having been with all nations the emblem of eternity and infinity" (SD 1:64-5).
As the symbol of generation, birth, and rebirth, it is "the most familiar form of that in which is deposited and developed the germ of every living being" (IU 1:157), used not only on account of the mystery of apparent self-generation, but from its spheroidal shape, the sphere and circle both being symbols of encompassing space.

Egg
(Heb. beytsah, "whiteness"). Eggs deserted (Isa. 10:14), of a bird (Deut. 22:6), an ostrich (Job 39:14), the cockatrice (Isa. 59:5). In Luke 11:12, an egg is contrasted with a scorpion, which is said to be very like an egg in its appearance, so much so as to be with difficulty at times distinguished from it. In Job 6:6 ("the white of an egg") the word for egg (hallamuth') occurs nowhere else. It has been translated "purslain" (R.V. marg.), and the whole phrase "purslain-broth", i.e., broth made of that herb, proverbial for its insipidity; and hence an insipid discourse. Job applies this expression to the speech of Eliphaz as being insipid and dull. But the common rendering, "the white of an egg", may be satisfactorily maintained.

n. QIm

EGG--FRESHNESS
Although freshness does not affect the nutrient quality
of an egg, it does influence the cooking quality. Very
fresh eggs are desirable for poaching and frying because
they hold their shape better and look more attractive. On
the other hand, hard cooked eggs don't peel as easily when
they are very fresh.

EGGS--BLOOD SPOTS
"Blood" and "meat" spots are caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk surface during formation of the egg or by a similar accident in the wall of the oviduct. Many factors contribute to the spots: breed, feed, condition of the hens, etc. Both chemically and nutritionally these eggs are fit to eat. They are food safe if the egg has been properly stored in the refrigerator.
If desired, use the tip of a knife to remove the spot.

EGGS--FERTILE VS NON-FERTILE
Fertile eggs are not any better for you than non-
fertile eggs. The nutrients attainable from any egg are
determined by the feed the chicken laying the eggs has
consumed. Both types of eggs start with the same nutrients
but fertile eggs will also contain a small amount of the
male hormone.

EGGS--SHELL COLOR
Some people prefer brown eggs to white, or vice versa.
Actually, the only difference is in the breed of the hen.
If hens have the same type of ration, the eggs will be nutritionally equivalent, regardless of shell color. They will also have the same flavor, keeping quality, and whipping and cooking characteristics.
Sometimes a large batch of scrambled eggs may turn green. Although not pretty, the color change is harmless and due to a chemical change brought on by heat. Using very fresh eggs, stainless steel equipment and serving the eggs as soon as possible after cooking will help to prevent this.
