Thanks Be To God, Since My Leaving

Before I Went To Bed, I Sat Up Till 2 A-clock In My Chamber, Reading Of Mr. Hooke's Microscopical Observations, The Most Ingenious Book That I Ever Read In My Life.

I Find My Wife Hath Something In Her Gizzard, That Only Waits An Opportunity Of Being Provoked To Bring Up; But I Will Not, For My Content-sake, Give It.

The Truth Is, I Do Indulge Myself A Little The More In Pleasure, Knowing That This Is The Proper Age Of My Life To Do It; And, Out Of My Observation That Most Men That Do Thrive In The World Do Forget To Take Pleasure During The Time That They Are Getting Their Estate, But Reserve That Till They Have Got One, And Then It Is Too Late For Them To Enjoy It.

But It Is Pretty To See What Money Will Do.

But Lord! To See The Absurd Nature Of Englishmen That Cannot Forbear Laughing And Jeering At Everything That Looks Strange.
