Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'He [Sir Andrew Fountaine] has fallen out with me, because I can not prevail with a Fellow here to part with three Saxon Coins, which the Owner values as I did My Alexander Seal, and with equall Judgment.'

(Williams 1963, vol. 1, pp. 140-1; Burnett 2020b, p. 1612)
