Formerly say that the King was a bastard and his mother a whore
     Hand i’ the cap
     Hired her to procure this poor soul for him
     I fear is not so good as she should be
     I was angry with her, which I was troubled for
     I was exceeding free in dallying with her, and she not unfree
     Ill all this day by reason of the last night’s debauch
     King do tire all his people that are about him with early rising
     Kissed them myself very often with a great deal of mirth
     My luck to meet with a sort of drolling workmen on all occasions
     Show many the strangest emotions to shift off his drink
     Upon the leads gazing upon Diana

2nd.  With Sir Wm. Pen by water to Whitehall, being this morning visited before I went out by my brother Tom, who told me that for his lying out of doors a day and a night my father had forbade him to come any more into his house, at which I was troubled, and did soundly chide him for doing so, and upon confessing his fault I told him I would speak to my father.  At Whitehall I met with Captain Clerk, and took him to the Leg in King Street, and did give him a dish
