Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'Edward Leigh (p. 56 of Three Diatribes or Discourses, in the second Of Money or Coyns) laments Sr Simonds D'Ewes's having published nothing about coins or medals. 'It's pitty (says he) that Sr Simonds D'Eus, my great friend, had not published something this way, he having spent so much time in this study and having purchased so many several coyns of all sorts.'
Quaere, whether the medals and coins, as well as the MSS, were purchased by the late Earl of Oxford. Also, whether there be any MS tract about them of Sr Simond's [sic] compiling. I believe there is not.' (Hearne 1885, vol. 10, p. 172; Burnett 2020b, p. 545 n. 230)
