Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

Un Refugié Francois nommé Gaillard m'est venu parler l'autre jour icy a Kinsington desirant de faire connoissance. C'est un homme qu'on dit avoir une fort belle collection de medailles, de belles pieces antiques, et toute sorte de raretés. Il me dit qu'entr'autres choses il a cette Urne (ou quoy que ce puisse estre) de cuivre, dont la figure en estampe se trouve dans un petit livre in octavo de Spon. Il y a trois figures moitjé femmes moitjé poisson a l'entour du creux du Vase, et une figure entiere sur le haut, toutes merveilleuses. J'aurois desja esté voir ce Virtuoso, si j'avois sceu son logis dans la ville, lequel il ne voulut pas m'enseigner par compliment, pretendant de me venir voir le premier.
