Excerpt from Bôrô-Boudour dans l'Ile de Java
Les matériaux d'où aurait pu sortir un travail de ce genre ne man quaient pas; mais où les chercher et comment les réunir? N'étaient-ils pas épars çà et là., le plus souvent cachés on ne savait où? Il y en avait parmi ces matériaux qui étaient connus et auxquels il semblait bien qu'on pourrait se fier; mais ceux-là étaient presque toujours incomplets ou ne reproduisaient que quelques fragments de l'ensemble. On ne possé dait là guère autre chose que des échantillons, qui pouvaient faire deviner la réalité, mais qui, bien loin de satisfaire le désir des antiquaires, ne ser vaiont qu a augmenter leur impatience.
