Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'My wife (who sends you a thousand thanks for your kind accounts of my younger one) wrote you word in her sister's, how I was now taken up and diverted by antiquities, medals, and chiefly drawings, and pictures brought to me every day to see, my acquaintance in these matters beginning now to enlarge, and my discoveries proving more successful.' (Rand 1900, pp. 468-70; Burnett 2020b, p. 1047 n. 340)
