|  Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends. | | As happy a man as any in the world, for the whole world seems to smile upon me! | | Strange, to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition, every man and wife gazing and smiling at them. | | Music and woman I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is. | | I went out to Charing Cross to see Major General Harrison hanged, drawn, and quartered; which was done there, he looking as cheerful as any man could in that condition. | | Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody. | | Thanks be to God. Since my leaving the drinking of wine, I do find myself much better, and do mind my business better, and do spend less money, and less time lost in idle company. | | Saw a wedding in the church. It was strange to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition. |
