Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'Tuckney had, rather unfortunately and surely not intending any criticism, compared D’Ewes’s gift of 500 bronze coins, in return for the previous loan to him of a gilded copy of the Bible, to the Homeric exchange of gold and bronze armour between Diomedes and Glaucus, as a sign of true friendship.' (summary from Burnett 2020b, p. 382)
