Monsieur Gassendi, which has since proved so advantageous to me. I am so much obliged to him for this favour that I cannot but love and remember him wherever my lot may be cast. I also feel myself under much obligation to you, and am bound to honour you all my life, not only on account of the partiality you have manifested toward me, but also for the valuable advice contained in your frequent letters, by which you have aided me during my journeys, and for your goodness in having sent me so disinterestedly and gratuitously a collection of books to the extremity of the world, whither my curiosity had led me; while those of whom I requested them, who might have been paid with money which I had left at Marseilles, and who in common politeness should have sent them, deserted me and laughed at my letters, looking on me as a lost man whom they were never more to see. - [Previous: 6.9.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.bernier~en-constable.6.9.6) - [Next: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.bernier~en-constable.7) - [Up: 6.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.bernier~en-constable.6.9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.bernier~en-constable.6.9.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.bernier~en-constable.6.9.7) · Pramāṇa
