Then to the office again, where all the afternoonclose, and at night home to supper and to bed. It comes in my mind thisnight to set down how a house was the other day in Bishopsgate Streetblowed up with powder; a house that was untenanted, and between a flaxshop and a-----------, both bad for fire; but, thanks be to God, it did nomore hurt; and all do conclude it a plot. I would also remember to myshame how I was pleased yesterday, to find the righteous maid of MagisterGriffin sweeping of 'nos...tra' office, 'elle con the Roman nariz and bonne'body which I did heretofore like, and do still refresh me to think 'queelle' is come to us, that I may 'voir her aliquando'. This afternoon I amtold again that the town do talk of my Lord Arlington's being to be LordTreasurer, and Sir W. Coventry to be Secretary of State; and that forcertain the match is concluded between the Duke of Richmond and Mrs. Stewart, which I am well enough pleased with; and it is pretty to considerhow his quality will allay people's talk; whereas, had a meaner personmarried her, he would for certain have been reckoned a cuckold atfirst-dash.
