The King’s Library; being under some new regulations & alterations, is intirely shut up. His Closet of Medalls, &c., cannot be seen without an Order from himself. Indeed, at Versailes, in the Gardens, are several antique figures, which Mr. Calvert took some pains to examine. There are 3 senatorial figures, att y e feet of each a sort of Capsa, or Coffer. But yet which seems most valuable, as best executed, is one of Titus, the Roman Emperour, in the Military habit, resting one hand on a shield; on his Brest is represented two Angels, as it were supporting a Candlestick with seven Branches. This Mr. Calvert takes to be his triumph after the taking of Jerusalem.
