    In which I attend to various matters of state and family, observe the stirrings of public ceremonies and plays, and take frequent pleasure in companionship, music, and the conviviality of good wine. I find myself both amused and troubled by domestic quarrels, the lively follies of city life, and the splendour of the King’s coronation, seeking amusement and solace in journeys and social encounters amidst the bustling preparations and celebrations of the time.

  • The Diary of Samuel Pepys 1661 Section 3 - March
    2026/10/08
    In which I observe the busy stir of London life and my own anxious reckonings with affairs both public and private, amidst the preparations and the performances that give colour to these days; my thoughts often turn to business, to the theatre, and to the dealings and company of gentlemen, whilst I strive to secure means for my expenses and reflect upon the many small events that richly fill the measure of my time. In this March I note the comings and goings of the court, the humours of the town, the health and concerns of family and friends, and the steady chime of duty and pleasure well interwoven, all set against the rumour and reality of matters political and naval that whisper through the city’s streets.

    In which I find myself comfortably settled in one of the Navy Office houses, passing my days amidst family, friends, and the duties of office with a keen eye on the affairs of State and the stirring events of the city, including the recent tumult of the Fanatiques and the King's court in motion. The days are marked by visits to theatres now graced by women on the stage, lively dinners, visits to the fleet, and the sober observance of fasts and public sermons, all conducted with the mix of duty and pleasure that fills these still early months of the year.

    2026/09/26
    In which I take great delight in the company of friends and the pleasures of fine food, music, and new acquisitions, whilst managing the cares and business attendant upon my service to my Lord and the affairs of the sea; daily life is enlivened by courtly visits, the Queen’s presence, honest discourse, and the comfort of home amid occasional petty quarrels and considerations of fortune. Throughout these November days, I observe with keen eye the changes in fashion and spirit of the times, attend to family matters and official duties, and find joy in the small but significant advancements that mark my commerce and contentment.

    In which I diligently attend to my Lord’s affairs and household, balancing the import of court commissions, private wagers, and the care of my home amidst news of royal illness and departure; all the while I find pleasure and vexation in commerce, company, and the ordering of both men and masonry. The passing days are marked by solemn sermons, the throng of fairs, society’s intrigues, and the constant hum of London’s multifarious engagements, even as the shadow of mourning falls upon our city.
