The Diary Of Samuel Pepys Ma F R S Vol 1 PDF Download

Excerpt from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, M. A., F. R. S.; Clerk of the Acts and Secretary to the Admiralty, Vol. 1: Transcribed by the Late Rev. Mynors Bright, M. A. From the Shorthand Manuscript in the Pepysian Library, Magdalene College, Cambridge Although the Diary of Samuel Pepys has been in the hands of the public for nearly seventy years, it has not hitherto appeared in its entirety. In 'the original edition of 1825 scarcely half of the manuscript was printed. Lord Braybrooke added some passages as the various editions were published, but in the preface to his last edition he wrote there appeared indeed no necessity to amplify or in any way to alter the text of the Diary beyond the correction of a few verbal errors and corrupt passages hitherto overlooked.
