Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'It is true, that about four yeares since (and in this very Recesse) I had blotted some paper upon the subject of Medals, but which (upon Mr Walker’s Booke, coming forth) I had quite lay’d-by; had not some who had seen the copy (and considered how much was printed publish’d in other countries, and the popular language, and how very little in ours) prevaild with me to bestow it upon one [Tooke] to whom I owed ... a kindnesse, that I would let \suffer/ it be printed: How it will Succeede in an Age so critical, knowing and polite, I have reason to apprehend.' (Chambers - Galbraith 2014, p. 10292, letter 711 (708); Burnett 2020b, p. 827 n. 69)
