To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Minnes and Mr. Evelyn such a spirit of mirth that in all my life I never met with so merry a two hours as our company this night was. Among other humours, Mr. Evelyn's repeating of some verses made up of nothing but the various acceptations of may and can, and doing it so aptly upon occasion of something of that nature, and so fast, did make us all die almost with laughing, and did so stop the mouth of Sir J. Minnes in the middle of all his mirth, that I never saw any man so out- done in all my... life; and Sir J. Minnes' mirth, too, to see himself outdone, was the crown of all our mirth. In this humour we sat till about ten at night, and so my lord and his mistress home, and we to bed." We may well leave the diarist amidst such wholesome society and simple pleasantries, A SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY SUNDAY 169 or better still amidst the cheerful and inno- cent conditions of his own home life, when — reading and meditation and singing done — he gathers his household around him to in- voke the Divine blessing through the hours of the coming night, and to give thanks for God's g^eat gift of another day of Rest and Worship.
