The treaty and conventions (as were most treaties of the day) was written in French. Most of these English translations are from British and Foreign State Papers, Volume 3 (1815–1816), published by the Great Britain Foreign and Commonwealth Office, 1838. Any conventions and documents not published in English by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office are taken from the translations laid before Parliament (Hansard The Parliamentary Debates from the Year 1803 to the Present Time ..., Volume 32. 1 February to 6 March 1816)
