3 jan. 1583 (from London): “Salutem in Christo plurimum. Petiisti a me in litteris tuis per Demetrium nostrum, quod exigua facultas mea suppeditare non potest. Nam in numismatibus meis antiquioribus nullius arbitror provinciae, fluminis aut montis tupon reperiri, quem in elegantissimo antiquitatum tuarum thesauro non habeas.
