Lettre du 20 oct. 1572 (de Londres) : « Alia cogitatio maiores mihi difficultates obtulit, scripsi enim de Romanorum in Britaniis imperio, quae scriptio quam laboriosa mihi fuerit, ipse facile conjicies, cum nullus ante me, id argumenti attigerit, omniaque ex graecis et latinis, iisque antiquissimis authoribus haurienda sint, veritate nugis et mednaciss recentiorum, ferè obruta et delata, ad quam eruendam, dicj non potest, quantum lucis et numismata et aliae marmoreae inscirpionis [sic] attulerint » ; « Peto autem maiorem in modum a te, agas cum Goltzio nostro, ut si quas observarit inscriptiones, in numismatibus, quorum habet et vidit innumera, vel in marmoribus aliisque monumentis antiquis, qualia multa diligenter inspexit, quae vel ipsius nominis Britanniae meminerint, velit transcriptas ad me transmittere » (Hessels 1887, lettre n° 42, p. 101-102)
