Excerpt from Discours sur les Richesses
Assez embarrassé sur l'ordre que je devais suivre en transcri vant ces fragments j'avais d'abord pensé a les classer comme les chapitres du Coran, en commençant par le plus étendu et en finis sant par le plus court j'ai vu pourtant qu'il était possible de les ranger d'une manière un peu plus rationnelle; et sans essayer, toutefois, de retrouver l'ordre exact dans lequel l'auteur les au rait disposés, j'ai rapproché les sujets qui ont entre eux quelque analogie.
