Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I was told of a good collection of old Coins in ye hands of ye Principal of ye College; but he being unhappily gone abroad when I went to wait on him, I miss'd the satisfaction of seeing them. I have endeavoured to procure an acct of [them...] I am dayly in expectance of it. And, as soon as it comes, you or Mr Fountain shall know what helps may be had for ye Saxon Tables fro' these parts of [the] World.' (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Rawlinson D 377, ff.25-6; Burnett 2020b, p. 810)
