20th. Commissioner Pett at last came to our lodging and caused
the boats to go off; so some in one boat and some in another we
all bid adieu to the shore. But through the badness of weather
we were in great danger, and a great while before we could get to
the ship. This hath not been known four days together such
weather this time of year, a great while. Indeed our fleet was
thought to be in great danger, but we found all well.
21st. The weather foul all this day also. After dinner, about
writing one thing or other all day, and setting my papers in
order, hearing by letters that came hither in my absence, that
the Parliament had ordered all persons to be secured, in order to
a trial, that did sit as judges in the late King's death, and all
the officers attending the Court. Sir John Lenthall moving in
the House, that all that had borne arms against the King should
be exempted from pardon, he was called to the bar of the House,
and after a severe reproof he was degraded his knighthood.
