[Thomas] [Southland] : Love a la mode

'So home to dinner alone. And then to read a little and so to church again, where the Scott made an ordinary sermon; and so home to my office and there read over my vowes, and encreased them by a vow against all strong drink till November next, of any sort of Quantity... Then I fell to read over a silly play, writ by a person of Honour (which is, I find, as much to say a coxcombe) called "Love a la mode".'

Century: 1600-1699     Reader/Listener/Group: Samuel Pepys      Print: Book
