Let us retain the hypotheses and notations of proposition 8. Let G be a discrete topological group. Suppose that E is a principal covering of group G. If the coverings EtE_t of B and Et×TE_t\times T of B×TB\times T are endowed with the structures of principal coverings of group G deduced from that of E (I, p. 92, examples 1 and 4), then the coverings E and Et×TE_t\times T are isomorphic principal coverings. Let in fact h:Et×T→Eh: E_t\times T\rightarrow E be the unique (B×T)(B\times T)-morphism such that h(x,t)=xh(x, t) =x for every x∈Etx\in E_t. For every element gg of G, the mapping (x,u)↦h(x⋅g,u)⋅g−1(x, u)\mapsto h(x\cdot g, u)\cdot g^{-1} is a (B×T)(B\times T)-morphism which maps (x,t)(x, t) to xx for every x∈Etx\in E_t, hence is equal to hh. This proves that hh is a (B×T)(B\times T)-morphism of principal coverings.

In particular, under the preceding hypotheses, the principal coverings EtE_t and Et′E_{t'} are isomorphic, for t′∈Tt'\in T. One proves analogously that if, in corollary 2, E and E′E' are principal coverings of group G and if kk is a B-isomorphism of principal coverings of group G,k~,\widetilde{k} is a (B×T)(B\times T)-isomorphism of principal coverings.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
