Statements
At Portici we saw such parts of the museum as we had not time to visit the preceding day; but many days and months would be requisite to study this amazing collection. [...] The rolled manuscripts have been often described, as well as the contrivance for unfolding them; but the operation goes on very slowly, nor have the discoveries hitherto repaid the necessary pains.
