Pepys, Samuel, 1633-1703

"The Diary of Samuel Pepys"

He mighty kind
to me; and so parted.
6th. To the King's playhouse, and there in an upper box (where
come in Colonell Poynton and Moll Stacey, who is very fine, and
by her wedding-ring I suppose he hath married her at last,) did
see "The Moor of Venice:" but ill acted in most parts, Moone
(which did a little surprise me) not acting Iago's part by much
so well as Clun used to do: nor another Hart's, which was
Cassio's; nor indeed Burt doing the Moor's so well as I once
thought he did. Thence home; and just at Holborne-conduit the
bolt broke that holds the fore-wheels to the perch, and so the
horses went away with them and left the coachman and us: but
being near our coach-maker's, and we staying in a little
ironmonger's shop, we were presently supplied with another.
8th. To visit my Lord Sandwich; and there, while my Lord was
dressing himself, did see a young Spaniard that he hath brought
over with him dance, which he is admired for as the best dancer
in Spain, and indeed he do with mighty mastery; but I do not like
his dancing as well as the English, though my Lord commends it
mightily.
