We lie still a little below Gravesend.
At night Mr. Sheply returned from London, and told us of several elections for the next Parliament. That the King's effigies was new making to be set up in the Exchange again.
This evening was a great whispering of some of the Vice-Admiral's captains that they were dissatisfied, and did intend to fight themselves, to oppose the General. But it was soon hushed, and the Vice-Admiral did wholly deny any such thing, and protested to stand by the General.
At night Mr. Sheply, W. Howe, and I supped in my cabin. So up to the Master's cabin, where we sat talking, and then to bed.

we lie a little at night
turn old

effigies whispering
of some fight

soon hushed
in the soup


Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Thursday 29 March 1660.
