Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I have a long time been under a difficulty of safely sending five Medals to you, two of which were of the twelve Cesars, and the rest of those Emperors who succeeded near them: because I know your Lordship hath a Curiosity in this polite part of Knowledge. They were found in a very old Churchyard of this City, and as it belongs to me in some Manner, the Minister of the Church being my Chancellor, (Doctor Delany) they were sent to me, gratis, although I expect fifteen pence for them. However on account of your Poverty, I will take only a Shilling ... You will find, that we in Dublin had Roman Medals as well as You.'

(Williams 1963, vol. 5, pp. 103-4; Burnett 2020b, pp. 1628-9)
