Excerpt from Relations Inédites des Missions de la Compagnie de Jésus: A Constantinople Et dans le Levant au Xviie Siècle
L'orient l'emporte donc sur les autres contrées de l'univers; mais, comme nous le disions, toute sa poésie est bien mêlée de prose, et même de la plus triste. Son histoire est le récit non interrompu de toutes les misères, de toutes les folies, de toutes les turpitudes hu maines; et si Dieu semble avoir maudit ces régions, autrefois si privilégiées on admire encore, malgré la grandeur de ses châtiments, combien il a été patient et miséricordieux.
