Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Sometimes pictures, statues and medals are to be had at reasonable rates in Florence and Rome, which was why he desired them to give Sir John Finch credit, that he might not lose a good occasion. If he be provided before he returns into England, it will be time enough.' (Summary from Lomas 1913, p.407)
