{{Tr|Agnes D. Kingston}}. This translation begins: "Speaking of the great American Andes, the mineralogist Haüy uses a grand expression when he calls them "The incommensurable parts of Creation." These proud words may justly be applied to the Himalayan chain, whose heights no man can measure with any mathematical precision."
