Theory of Sets, chapter IV, § 1. Structures and isomorphisms

Take T\mathscr{T} to be the theory of sets, and consider the species of structures which has no auxiliary base set, one principal base set A\mathrm{A}, the typical characterization F∈P((A×A)×A)\mathrm{F} \in \mathfrak{P}((\mathrm{A} \times \mathrm{A}) \times \mathrm{A}), and as axiom the transportable relation "F is a functional graph whose domain is A×A\mathrm{A} \times \mathrm{A}". The structures of this species are particular cases of what are called algebraic structures, and the function whose graph is F\mathrm{F} (a mapping of A×A\mathrm{A} \times \mathrm{A} into A\mathrm{A}) is called the (everywhere defined) internal law of composition of such a structure.

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.
