Extract

The extreme elegance of the sculpture of the royal seal, the impression of which you favoured me with a sight of, joined to the circumstance of its being as yet unpublished, has induced me to cause a drawing to be made of it, which, with the following description, you may probably think worth communicating to the Society of Antiquaries.
