All which, I did assure my Lord, was most properly false,
and nothing like it true; and told my Lord the whole passage. My
Lord do seem most nearly affected with him; partly, I believe,
for me, and partly for himself. So he advised me to wait
presently upon my Lord, and clear myself in the most perfect
manner I could, with all submission and assurance that I am his
creature both in this and all other things: and that I do own
that all I have, is derived through my Lord Sandwich from his
Lordship. So, full of horror I went, and found him busy in
trials of law in his great room; and it being Sitting-day, durst
not stay, but went to my Lord and told him so: whereupon he
directed me to take him after dinner: and so away I home,
leaving my Lord mightily concerned for me. So I to my Lord
Chancellor's; and there coming out after dinner I accosted him,
telling him that I was the unhappy Pepys that had fallen into his
high displeasure, and come to desire him to give me leave to make
myself better understood to his Lordship, assuring him of my duty
and service.
