Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

Sir - I should not take the liberty of throwing Myself at your Maj:^tys feet in this proxy manner, did I not presume it to be less troublesome than asking your Maj:^ty leave to do so in person that I might plead my pardon for presenting these old Scrapes of Papers to your Majesty which I have found among Various ones, and which may be useful as I find them relative to your Maj:^ts Medals, as also some few other Medals that were found in an old Box of my great Uncle, & which I suppose have never since that time been seen. (Fortescue 1928, vol. III, pp. 204-5, letter 1643; Burnett 2024, p. 5)
