Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

18 Oct. 1597 (from Rome): “Florentiae Ioannem Stradanum et Ioannem de Boulogne conveni. Dies ibi V moratus Sienae Romam veni, ubi post tridum, cum nempe Macarium et F. Ursinum convenissem, ad iter Neapolitanum me accinxi. Locutus illic Domino Ioanni Baptistae, et Ioanni Vincentio, Portis, fratribus, ille de circuli quadratura nescio uid sub praelo habeat, hic doctior habitus, quaedam in judiciariam Ptolemaei astrologiam edere parat, at nihil adhuc unquam publico commisit. Rarissimum aerorum numismatum Impp. seriem mihi ostendit, teque etiam atque etiam salutat. Dixit mihi de Barrii Calabria, quam tamen non amplius exstare ajebat: at mihi me videor eam apud te vidisse. Coll. Antonium Stiglionem et ibi allocutus sum, qui conquestus omnes regni neapolitani tabulas quas magno et sumptu et labore concinnaverat, omnes etiam in chartulis notas, sibi vi ademptas, insuper inhibitum ne posthac iis rescariendis operam navaret, omnem itaque spem abjecisse, tibi aliisve hoc opere gratificandi. […] Fulvius Ursinus, Galleum rogatum voluit ut progredi non cesset, in exsculpendis antiquorum philosophorum iconibus. Certe horum in lapillis gemmisque egregiam habet suppellectilem. Jussit at Neapoli redux ad illum redirem, parebo. Nunicaboque D. Vincentium Portam, marmoreum Ciceronis caput, ex huius villa Puteolis effossum, nactum esse. Romam etiam commoratum venit Neapoli, Vincentius (Wensel vulgo) Coberger, Belga pictor: qui numismatibus satis instructus aliquid instar Goltzii de iis edere promittit, sed sero, vereor. Quibus iam intentus Stiglio. Est musaeum D. Ferdinando Imperato (si bene nomen memini) Neapolitano pharmacopeo, optime instructum, excussis siccisque, plantis, mineralibus, volucribus, quadrupedibus, reptilibus etc. (vidi), haec omnia describere et publica facere pollicetur ingenti volumine pharmacopeus, sed operae if Stiglionis fieri nemo nescit. […] Familias tuas Romanas, tribus quatuorve argenteis nummulis augebo. Posthumus cum Hercule Magusano frustra quaero, incassum etima nummos cum locorum nominibus. Ostendit mihi unum Ursinus, quod ad suam sententiam facere dicebat, de Lanuviae dictione, cujus tu in Thesauro mentionem facis.” (Austin, Harry Ransom Center, HRHRC Collection, HRC 55; Hessels 1887, no. 309, p. 726-728 ; Scheller 1978, p. 65, note 107).
