Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'...I should be glad to hear of your neu additions to [your] collection of meddails, that is already soe much advanced, with your advice what quhat books are best to beginn with on that noble science. I have met with nothing considerable since my last. Receive inclosed a piece of one of the James quhich I latly gote. I should be glade if you gave me its age and reading. I have the prospect of some latly dugg up in Galloway, of David, as is said. Quhen they come to my hands you shall have an accompte of them.
...
I should be glad of any doubles you have to spare, Roman, or especially Scots...'
