Pepy's Diary. 22 Aug 1667. Returning to the office, did ask whether we might visit Commissioner Pett (age 57), to which, I confess, I have no great mind; and it was answered that he was close prisoner, and we could not; but the Lieutenant of the Tower would send for him to his lodgings, if we would: so we put it off to another time. Returned to the office, where we sat all the morning, and at noon to Captain Cocke's (age 50) to dinner; where Lord Bruncker (age 47) and his Lady, Matt. Wren (age 38), and Bulteale, and Sir Allen Apsly (age 51); the last of whom did make good sport, he being already fallen under the retrenchments of the new Committee, as he is Master Falconer1 which makes him mad, and swears that we are doing that the Parliament would have done-that is, that we are now endeavouring to destroy one another. But it was well observed by some at the table, that they do not think this retrenching of the King's charge will be so acceptable to the Parliament, they having given the King (age 37) a revenue of so many £100,000's a-year more than his predecessors had, that he might live in pomp, like a king.

Note 1. The post of Master Falconer was afterwards granted to Charles's son by Nell Gwyn (age 17), and it is still held by the Duke of St. Albans, as an hereditary office. B.
