Talk:Abraham Hyacinthe Anquetil-Duperron

Different translation of quote in article
Soon, new foreigners reached your shores; inconvenient guests, everything they touched belonged to them …; it was not enough that they should invade your commerce, make the price of foodstuffs and goods triple, alter their quality; your factories almost wiped out, the workers taking refuge in the mountains, a dying son asking his father what harm he did those foreigners who have taken the bread out of his mouth — nothing touches or softens their hearts: “Your gold,” the Peruvians and Mexicans were told; here, the revenue of Industan is what we demand, even if for that streams of blood have to flow. At least, unfortunate Indians, you will perhaps learn that in the space of two hundred years, one European who saw you and lived among you! has dared to plead your cause and present to the Court of the Universe your wounded rights, those of mankind blackened by a vile interest.
