Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'the readynesse you have always shewn in paying civilities to my Lord Archbp, and particularly in the agreeable entertainment you gave him in your study, I must needs call it such, because I have heard his Grace so often since mention the antiquities there as exceeding curious and valuable. And when I spake of his having been reported by some then present to have disesteemed them, he said it was the richnesse of your collection of coines that shewed him the poverty of his own.' (Thoresby 1912, pp. 49-50; Burnett 2020b, pp. 866 n. 139, 893 n. 88)
