Eighteenth-century transcription of the diary of Lady Anne Clifford , entries relating to 6 Jan. and 19 Jan. 1617. (The seventeenth-century original does not survive.)


[unfoliated]

Upon the 6th being Twelfth Day I went about 4 o'clock to the Court with my Lord. I went up with my Lady Arundel and eat a scrambling Supper with her & my Lady Pembroke at my Lord Duke's Lodgings - we stood to see the Mask in ⎡the box with⎤ my Lady Ruthven.

[19 Jan.]
This night the Mask was danced at the Court but I would not stay to see it because I had seen it already.
