grana

The farm or grange was so called a grana gerendo—the overseer whereof was called the prior of the grange.

Grana costs five or six cruzados per codo at Goa, and even seven and eight.

Compare Statutes of the Realm, i. 206: Tria grana ordei sicca et rotunda faciunt pollicem.

In general the consuming trade does not discriminate between Parmesan, Grana and closely related forms.

It should be remembered that many of Beckwourths statements are to be taken cum grana salis.
