Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Tuckney’s next letter of thanks is dated 18 May, but its flowery language gives little clue as to the identity of the ‘multi nummi’, ‘Sum’o laboris temporisque impendio undique conquisitos’, which the ‘pijssimus filius’ had decided to give to his alma mater.' (summary from Burnett 2020b, p. 382)
