Pepys' Version Of the Origin OF the

The saying, "1'cll 1t to the marines"

goes, "that his light hearted majesty,
with an exceedingly bored expression
on his swarthy face. was strolling IN

Mr.. Pepys. with the captain Of the
Defryance. who hath lately returned
from the Indies and who told me the
two most wonderful things that ever

the stories told were Of fish flying In
