(1811: 185–86) within the Traité de l. a. Volonté, he specified: … because it is bound that our actual and ethical schools are by myself our unique riches, the employment of these colleges, labour of a few sort, is our basically unique treasure, and that it really is continually from this employment, that each one these issues are created which we name riches [ … ].
