Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Men of Carrara ... [have] ignorantly planted beards upon those chins wch never wore any; but partly by ancient statues, and partly by old Medalls, I have given Directions for the making others suitable to the Persons they represent.' (Kew, National Archives, SP 98/10, f.41; Burnett 2020b, pp. 598-9)
