'Me invisit Vestmorlandiae Comes mane, ut quaedam eius lustrarem Numismata quod et feci. ... Sera vespera me Comes invisit Lyndeseius ut Numismata inspiceret quod et ex parte fecit.' ['the Earl of Westmorland visited me early, so that I should examine some of his coins and I did. ... In the late evening the Earl of Lindsey visited me to look at coins, which he partly did.'] (BL, Harley MS 484, f.138r; Burnett 2020b, p. 363-4)
