Punchy

Up, and to the office, where sat all the morning, and after noon to the office again till night, mighty busy getting Mr. Fist to come and help me, my own clerks all busy, and so in the evening to ease my eyes, and with my wife and Deb. and Betty Turner, by coach to Unthanke’s and back again, and then to supper and to bed.

noon fist
busy as a wit
my back up

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Thursday 9 July 1668
