3 in 1660 and 1669. Pepys writes about the much important news stories of
4 the time, like the Great Plague, the enemy navy sailing up the River
5 Thames, and the Great Fire of London. He writes also about himself too,
6 even about his faults– he often slept during the sermon in the church or
7 looked at the pretty girls who they were there. He describes his home life
8 – he writes about an argument with his wife, and how they became
9 friends again, and his worry about her illness. He loved to reading and
10 was always buying books for his very large library. As well as books, he
11 liked the music, the theatre, card games , and parties with good food and
12 a lots of fun. But although he enjoyed life, there was a serious side to

14 was been a Member of Parliament and the President of the Royal
15 Society. He is also remembered for his work for the British Navy.
