How these papers have been placed in sequence will be made manifest in the reading of them.
这些文件是如何按顺序排列的,在阅读过程中将会一目了然。
All needless matters have been eliminated, so that a history almost at variance with the possibilities of later-day belief may stand forth as simple fact.
所有无关紧要的内容均已删除,以便这段几乎与后世信念所能接受之可能性相悖的历史,能够以简单的事实呈现出来。
There is throughout no statement of past things wherein memory may err, for all the records chosen are exactly contemporary, given from the standpoints and within the range of knowledge of those who made them.
其中自始至终没有任何关于往事的陈述会因记忆有误而失真,因为所有选用的记录均为当时所作,出自记录者本人的立场,且在其知识范围之内。
