She by and by followed me up, and to very bad words from her to me, calling me perfidious and man of no conscience, whatever I pretend to, and I know not what, which troubled me mightily.
@samuelpepys Well Sam, you are kind of the perfidious poster boy.
I mean I looked up perfidious in the dictionary, and they had your picture there. I visited perfidious.com and it redirects to your web site. You've got perfidy down to a 'T'.
But I tempered myself very well, so as that though we went to bed with discontent she yielded to me and began to be fond, so that being willing myself to peace, we did before we sleep become very good friends, and so with good hearts and joy to rest.
@samuelpepys Is that a metaphor for sex?
@samuelpepys NEVER a good idea to tell your wife you believe a servant over her. You'd think you'd been married long enough to know that.
