It was some time ago that the lord did me the honour to come to this place because of the fact that I am his neighbour and servant where to find me the means to make this canal, because he had heard that I had done a particular study of it, I told him that I knew him and promised to visit him at Castres on my return from Perpignan, and to guide him around the area to make him see the possibility. I did this and said in the company of the Lord Bishop of Saint-Papoul and several other persons of substance who visited, all of which was found as I had said, the Lord Archbishop was responsible for drawing up a letter and sending it to you, it is included here but in poor order, because, understanding neither Greek nor Latin, and barely able to speak French, it is not possible for me to explain without stuttering, so what I set out to do is by order and for obedience not of my own volition. </p><p>However, my Lord, please take the trouble to read my mail, so that you may truly judge that this canal is feasible, it is truly difficult because of the cost but it can be seen that the good that will come outweighs the consideration of expense.

Also, I believe that these difficulties have always caused distaste which has postponed the execution of the work, but today, my lord, there are easy routes and there are rivers that can be easily diverted from their ancient beds and conducted in this new canal by natural and proper inclination, all difficulties cease, except that of finding the funds to be used for the cost of the work. </p><p> You have for that a thousand means, my Lord, and I present to you again two of my memoires attached to help you to consider more that the ease and assurance of this new navigation will make the <a href="/wiki/Straits_of_Gibraltar" class="mw-redirect" title="Straits of Gibraltar">Straits of Gibraltar</a> cease to be an absolutely necessary passage, that the income of the king of Spain in Cadiz will be reduced and those of our King will rise especially on farms inputs and outputs of goods in this kingdom, in addition the rights received from the said canal will rise to immense sums, and that His Majesty's subjects in general will benefit from a thousand new businesses and will greatly benefit from this navigation, that if I learn that this plan should please you, I will send to you with the number of locks that need to be done and an exact calculation of <a href="/wiki/Toise" title="Toise">toises</a> of the said canal, both in length and width.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Study_of_the_project">Study of the project</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Canal_du_Midi&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Study of the project"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Plan_canal_Midi.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Plan_canal_Midi.jpg/400px-Plan_canal_Midi.jpg" decoding="async" width="400" height="133" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Plan_canal_Midi.jpg/600px-Plan_canal_Midi.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Plan_canal_Midi.jpg/800px-Plan_canal_Midi.jpg 2x" data-file-width="12000" data-file-height="4000" /></a><figcaption>Plan of the Project</figcaption></figure> <p>Compared to canals, managing rivers is difficult but only one canal is required between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.

This chapter refers only to the actual aqueducts carrying the canal itself, and not the secondary hydraulic structures.</span> </li> </ol></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Citations">Citations</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Canal_du_Midi&action=edit&section=39" title="Edit section: Citations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap mw-references-columns"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.french-waterways.com/waterways/south/canal-midi/">"Canal du Midi | Detailed Navigation Guide and Maps"</a>. <i>French Waterways</i><span class="reference-accessdate">.

C'est sur celle du dessein d'un canal qui pourroit se faire dans cette province du Languedoc pour la communication des deux mers Océane et Méditerranée, vous vous estonnerés Monseigneur que j'entreprenne de vous parler d'une chose qu'apparemment je ne cognois pas et qu'un homme de gabelle se mesle de nivellage ... </p><p>Mais vous excuserez mon entreprise lors que vous saurés que c'est de l'ordre de monseigneur l'archevesque de Tolose que je vous écris. Il y a quelque temps que ledit seigneur me fit l'honneur de venir en ce lieu, soit à cause que je luy suis voisin et omager ou pour savoir de moi les moyens de fere ce canal, car il avoit ouy dire que j'en avoit faict une estude particulière, je luy dis ce que j'en savois et luy promis de l'aller voir à Castres à mon retour de Perpinian, et de le mener sur les lieux pour lui en fere voir la possibilité. Je l'ay fait, et ledit seigneur en compagnie de Monsieur l'évesque de Saint-papoul et de plusieurs autres personnes de condition a esté visiter toutes choses qui s'estant trouvées comme je les avois dites, ledit seigneur archevesque m'a chargé d'en dresser une rellation et de vous l'envoyer, elle est icy incluse mais en assez mauvais ordre, car, n'entendant ni grec ni latin et à peyne sachant parler françois, il ne m'est possible que je m'explique sans bégayer ; aussi ce que j'entreprens est par ordre et pour obéyr et non-pas de mon mouvement propre. Touttesfoix Monseigneur s'il vous plaic de vous donner la peine de lire ma rellation vous jugerés qu'il est vray que ce canal est faisable, qu'il est à la vérité difficille à cauze du coust mais que regardant le bien qui doibt en arriver l'on doibt fere peu de concidération de la despence. Le feu roy henry quatriesme ayeul de notre Monarque désira passionnement de fere cet ouvrage, feu Monsieur le Cardinal de Joyeuse avoit commansé d'y fere travailler et feu Monsieur le Cardinal de Richelieu en souhaitoit l'achèvement, l'histoire de France, le recueil des œuvres dudit Cardinal de Joyeuse et plusieurs autres éscrits justiffient cette vérité ; mais jusques à ce jour l'on n'avoit pas pansé aux rivières propres à servir ni sceu trouver de routtes aizées pour ce canal, car celles qu'on s'estoit alors imaginées estoient avec des obstacles insurmontables de rétrogradation de rivières et de machines pour élever les eaux. Aussi je crois que ces difficultés ont tousjours cauzés le dégoût et recullé l'exécution de l'ouvrage mais aujourd'huy Monseigneur, qu'on trouve de routtes aizées et de rivières quy peuvent estre facillement destournées de leur anciens lits et conduites dans ce nouveau canal par pente naturelle et de leur propre inclination, touttes difficultés cesent, excepté celle de trouver un fond pour servir aux frais du travail. </p><p> Vous avez pour cela mille moyens Monseigneur, et je vous en présente encore deux dans un mien memoire cy-joint afin de vous porter plus de considérer que la facilité et l'assurance de cette nouvelle navigation fera que les destroits de Gilbratar cessera d'estre un passage absolument nécessaire, que les revenus du Roy d'Espaigne à Cadix en seroit diminués et que ceux de notre Roy augmanteront d'aultant sur les fermes des entrées et sorties des marchandises en ce royaume, oultre les droicts qui se prendront sur ledit canal qui monteront à des sommes immenses, et que les subjects de sa Majesté en general proffiteront de mille nouveaux commerces et tireront de grands avantages de cette navigation, que sy j'aprans que ce dessein vous doibve plaire je vous l'envoyeré avec le nombre des ecluses qu’il conviendra fere et un calcul exact des toises dudit canal, soit en longueur soit en largeur.</p></blockquote></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-19"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-19">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Michel Cotte, <i>Canal du Midi, marvel of Europe</i>, Paris: Belin, 2003, 191 pages, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8" title="Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8">2-7011-2933-8</a>, p. 13. <span class="languageicon">(in French)</span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-20"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-20">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Michel Cotte, <i>Canal du Midi, marvel of Europe</i>, Paris:Belin, 2003, 191 pages, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8" title="Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8">2-7011-2933-8</a>, pp. 24 & 27 citing the source: <i>Brouillon du mémoire</i> accompanying the <i>Letter to Colbert</i>, 28 November 1662, Archives of the Canal du Midi, VNF Toulouse, 1-7. <span class="languageicon">(in French)</span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-21"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-21">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">René Gast, <i>The Canal du Midi and the navigable waterways from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean</i>, p. 15. <span class="languageicon">(in French)</span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-22"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-22">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Michel Cotte, <i>Canal du Midi, marvel of Europe</i>, Paris: Belin, 2003, 191 pages, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8" title="Special:BookSources/2-7011-2933-8">2-7011-2933-8</a>, p. 24, how to recover a large quantity of water?
