Paulus states that a dispensation may be obtained from the emperor allowing a woman to marry within the mourning period, and that being betrothed during this time does not cause any legal detriment.
[IDEM libro octauo ad edictum.]
[THE SAME, in his Eighth Book on the Edict.]
Solet a principe impetrari, ut intra legitimum tempus mulieri nubere liceat.1
It is customary to obtain from the emperor a dispensation allowing a woman to marry within the legal period of mourning.
Quae uirum eluget,2 intra id tempus sponsam fuisse non nocet.
For a woman who must mourn her husband, it is not detrimental to have been betrothed within that period.
- 3.2.10.primpetrari, ut ... liceat
The ut clause ("that it be allowed...") functions as the logical subject of the passive infinitive impetrari ("to be obtained"), which depends on the verb solet used impersonally.
- 3.2.10.1Quae uirum eluget
eluget is the present indicative, third person singular, of elugeo (to mourn, to complete the mourning). It forms a relative clause with the relative pronoun Quae (nominative feminine singular) as subject: "a woman who is mourning her husband" (manuscripts P and V read elugit).
