- English text 'B' contains supplementary matter (probably amplifications by the translator) not in the French source.
Observations
Translator 'A'
- writes with British spelling
- is not a native speaker of English
- confused or misunderstood certain points that were understood and correctly translated by Translator 'B'
- adhered faithfully to the original French text
Translator 'B'
- writes with American spelling
- is an articulate near-native speaker of English (confused the transitive verb 'legitimize' as 'legitimate')
- missed and preserved certain typographical errors by Translator 'A'
- added certain amplifications to the original French text --some of which exceed the duty of faithful translation.
