Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I shall write to Sir Hans Sloane, who has a most noble Collection; which I recommended to the View of Bishop Nicolson, who in return writes, he was surprized with it; And that it exceeded those of most of the Foreign Princes in Germany, tho’ so much celebrated by Travellers.' (Smith 1729, p. 78; Burnett 2020b, p. 1129)
