Pepys, Samuel, 1633-1703

"The Diary of Samuel Pepys"

But I
cannot believe that the King can fling her off so, he loving her
too well: and so I writ this night to my Lady to be my opinion;
she calling her my lady, and the lady I admire. Here I find that
my Lord hath lost the garden to his lodgings, and that it is
turning into a tennis-court.
27th. I to walk in the Parke, which is now every day more and
more pleasant, by the new works upon it.
28th. Walked to the water-side, and there took boat for the
Tower; hearing that the Queene-Mother is come this morning
already as high as Woolwich: and that my Lord Sandwich was with
her; at which my heart was glad.
30th. By water to White Hall, and there waited upon my Lord
Sandwich; and joyed him, at his lodgings, of his safe coming home
after all his danger, which he confesses to be very great. And
his people do tell me how bravely my Lord did carry himself,
while my Lord Crofts [William Crofts, created Baron Crofts of
Saxham in Suffolk 1658 and died s.p. 1677.] did cry; and I
perceive all the town talk how poorly he carried himself.
