Combine, cook until smooth and clear:

1 1/2 c. water
1/4 c. lemon juice and grated rind

Beat 3 egg yolks and 1 1/2 T. butter. Cool and beat. Take the egg whites and beat a little; then add 1/4 t. cream of tartar. Beat again and add 4 T. sugar (one at a time). Beat until stiff and pour over cooked filling in baked crust.
