Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter V, § 1. Hyperplanes, chambers and facets

Every hyperplane HH belonging to H\mathfrak{H} is the wall of at least one chamber.

By Prop. 7, (iii), there exists a point aa of HH that does not belong to any hyperplane H′≠HH' \neq H of H\mathfrak{H}; by Prop. 6, there exists a chamber CC such that a∈C‾a \in \overline{C}; Prop. 4 then shows that HH is a wall of CC.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
