About 4 I rose and got to the Abbey, where I followed Sir J. Denham, the Surveyor, with some company that he was leading in. And with muchado, by the favour of Mr. Cooper, his m...an, did get up into a greatscaffold across the North end of the Abbey, where with a great deal ofpatience I sat from past 4 till 11 before the King came in. And a greatpleasure it was to see the Abbey raised in the middle, all covered withred, and a throne (that is a chair) and footstool on the top of it; andall the officers of all kinds, so much as the very fidlers, in red vests. At last comes in the Dean and Prebends of Westminster, with the Bishops(many of them in cloth of gold copes), and after them the Nobility, all intheir Parliament robes, which was a most magnificent sight.
