Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'[requests an account or sketch] of your Carausius Neptunus which I understood from Dr Kennedy you had, and which you are lately enriched with, or it escaped my observation when I had the indulgence of viewing your cabinet.
What think you of Genebrier’s performance? Dr. Kennedy lent it me for an hour; he disapproves great part of it; but I remember Mr Kemp was a designer and medallist, but not a master of languages, much less much versed in history, or the laws, usages, habits, characters, or even the lapidary language, or medallic style, of the Greeks and Romans, with which I am not intimate, but ever pleased with information.'

(Nichols 1781-1790, pp. 75-7; Burnett 2020b, pp. 1661)
