Howard=, $Pr. Rupert=, the $E. of Dorset=, & another greater person than any of these, who fell into their snares, to the reproch of their noble families, & ruine both of body & Soule: I was invited to see this Tragedie, exceedingly well writ, by my <i>Lord Chamberlain</i>, though in my mind, I did not approve of any such passe time, in a season of such Judgements & Calamitie. <i>Pepys, Diary</i>: Here my $Lord Bruncker= proffered to carry me and my wife into a play <i>at court</i> to-night, and to lend me his coach home, which tempted me much; but I shall not do it.
