So to Sir W. Pen's to visit him, and finding him alone, sent for my wife, who is in her riding-suit, to see him, which she hath not done these many months I think. By and by in comes Sir J.

"Oh, ho!" said he, "I believe it is both tender and sublime; she's a divine creature! and so doats upon me! Let me see what shall I do with this money, when I have once got it into my hands? In the first place, I shall do for you.
