From the diary of Samuel Pepys (1663-1703)

But I drank so much wine that I was not fit for business; and
therefore, at noon I went and walked in Westminster hall a
while; and thence to Salsbury Court playhouse, where was acted
the first time _Tis pitty shee's a Whore_---a simple play and
ill acted; only, it was my fortune to sit by a most pretty and
most ingenious lady, which pleased me much.
