Staid two hours with her kissing her, but nothing more

Statute against selling of offices

Staying out late, and painting in the absence of her husband

Strange things he has been found guilty of, not fit to name

Strange the folly of men to lay and lose so much money

Strange how civil and tractable he was to me

Street ordered to be continued, forty feet broad, from Paul's

Subject to be put into a disarray upon very small occasions

Such open flattery is beastly

Suffered her humour to spend, till we begun to be very quiet

Supper and to bed without one word one to another

Suspect the badness of the peace we shall make

Swear they will not go to be killed and have no pay

Take pins out of her pocket to prick me if I should touch her

Talk very highly of liberty of conscience

Taught my wife some part of subtraction

Tax the same man in three or four several capacities

Tear all that I found either boyish or not to be worth keeping

Tell me that I speak in my dreams

That I might not seem to be afeared

That I may have nothing by me but what is worth keeping

That I may look as a man minding business

The unlawfull use of lawfull things

The devil being too cunning to discourage a gamester

The most ingenious men may sometimes be mistaken

"The Alchymist,"--[Comedy by Ben Jonson]

The barber came to trim me and wash me

The present Irish pronunciation of English
