11th. In the afternoon to White Hall; and there walked an houre
or two in the Parke, where I saw the King now out of mourning, in
a suit laced with gold and silver, which it is said was out of
fashion. Thence to the Wardrobe; and there consulted with the
ladies about going to Hampton Court to-morrow.
12th. Mr. Townsend called us up by four o'clock; and by five the
three ladies, my wife and I, and Mr. Townsend, his son and
daughter, were got to the barge and set out. We walked from
Mortlake to Richmond, and so to boat again. And from Teddington
to Hampton Court Mr. Townsend and I walked again. And then met
the ladies, and were showed the whole house by Mr. Marriott;
which is indeed nobly furnished, particularly the Queene's bed,
given her by the States of Holland; a looking-glasse sent by the
Queene-mother from France, hanging in the Queene's chamber, and
many brave pictures. And so to barge again; and got home about
eight at night very well.
14th. Dined at the Wardrobe; and after dinner, sat talking an
hour or two alone with my Lady.
