He is certainly the nimblest man in Europe at that sort of learning, and indeed admirably well skill’d in all other kinds of knowledge. Four or five hours were too few for our running over a treasure as this, and I promis’d myself the having another opportunity of looking into the numerous remains of unseen wealth. ... Mr. Stonestreet’s shells are wondrous fine. So are his fossils; and his coins are (many of ’em) very good. But the man himself is what best pleas’d me. I do not know that I ever met with a more agreable mixture of excellent learning, modesty, good nature and religious disposition, in any one person.'
