Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'You will find me, if alive, entertaining myself very busily with drawings, sketches, prints, medals, and antiques, which as well as pictures and other virtuoso-implements are brought often to my chamber and bedside; ... If you could bring with you a good book or two relating to medals, I should be very glad. I can get none here but the Italian ; none either in Latin or French.' (Rand 1900, pp. 493-4; Paknadel 1974, p. 295; Burnett 2020b, p. 1047)
