In a large bowl, combine water, yeast, sugar and salt. Stir until dissolved. Stir in flour. Turn the dough out onto a floured plate. Clean the bowl and grease with butter. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a damp towel. Let rise in warm place 45 minutes or until double in bulk. Grease a baking sheet and sprinkle it with cornmeal. Flour your hands and divide dough into 2 parts, shaping each into an oblong loaf but DO NOT KNEAD. Place both loaves on the prepared baking sheet. Let the loaves rise another 45 minutes until almost doubled in size. Preheat oven to 425. Brush the tops of loaves with melted butter and bake 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to 375 and bake 20 minutes more. While the loaves are still hot, brush with more butter and serve.
