2nd (lord's day). some of our mayds sitting up late last night to get things ready against our feast to-day, jane called us up about three in the morning, to tell us of a great fire they saw in the city. so i rose and slipped on my night-gowne, and went to her window, and thought it to be on the back-side of marke-lane at the farthest; but, being unused to such fires as followed, i thought it far enough off; and so went to bed again to sleep.

about seven rose again to dress myself, and there looked out at the window and saw the fire not so much as it was and further off. so to my closett to set things to rights after yesterday's cleaning. by and by jane comes and tells me that she hears that above 300 houses have been burned down to-night by the fire we saw, and that it is now burning down all fish-street, by london bridge. so i made myself ready presently, and walked to the tower, and there got up upon one of the high places, sir j. robinson's little son going up with me; and there i did see the houses at the end of the bridge all on fire, and an infinite great fire on this and the other side the end of the bridge; which, among other people, did trouble me for poor little michell and our sarah on the bridge. so down, with my heart full of trouble, to the lieutenant of the tower, who tells me that it begun this morning in the king's baker's house in pudding-lane, and that it hath burned st. magnus's church and most part of fish-street already.

so i down to the water-side, and there got a boat and through bridge, and there saw a lamentable fire. poor michell's house, as far as the old swan, already burned that way, and the fire running further, that in a very little time it got as afar as the steele-yard, while i was there. everybody endeavouring to remove their goods, and flinging into the river or bringing them into lighters that lay off; poor people staying in their houses as long as till the very fire touched them, and then running into boats, or clambering from one pair of stairs by the water-side to another. .

having seen as much as i could now, i away to white hall by appointment, and there walked to st. james's parke, and there met my wife and creed and wood and his wife, and walked to my boat; and there upon the water again, and to the fire up and down, it still encreasing, and the wind great. so near the fire as we could for smoke; and all over the thames, with one's face in the wind, you were almost burned with a shower of fire-drops. this is very true; so as houses were burned by these drops and flakes of fire, three or four, nay, five or six houses, one from another. when we could endure no more upon the water, we to a little ale-house on the bankside, over against the three cranes, and there staid till it was dark almost, and saw the fire grow; and, as it grew darker, appeared more and more, and in corners and upon steeples, and between churches and houses, as far as we could see up the hill of the city, in the most horrid malicious bloody flame, not like the fine flame of an ordinary fire.
