Examples
“quis furor est, quae nocte latent, in luce fateri, et quae clam facias facta referre palam? ignoto meretrix corpus iunctura Quiriti opposita populum summovet ante sera; tu tua prostitues famae peccata sinistrae commissi perages indiciumque tui? Translation by Christopher Marlowe What madnesse ist to tell night prankes by day, And hidden secrets openlie to bewray? The strumpet with the stranger will not do,”
Will you make shipwracke of your honest name, And let the world be witnesse of the same?
“Dig. XVII.I.5.4 Paulus libro trigensimo secundo ad edictum Servo quoque dominus si praeceperit certa summa rem vendere, ille minoris vendiderit, similiter vindicare eam dominus potest nec ulla exceptione summoveri, nisi indemnitas ei praestetur.”
And when an owner bids his slave to sell a thing for a certain price, but the latter sells it for less, the owner can demand it back likewise and neither can he be cast off by any exception, if he is not indemnified.
