It is argued that just as the food expenses for a slave subject to a usufruct fall on the usufructuary, so too must the medical and health expenses.
[GAIUS libro septimo ad edictum prouinciale.]
[GAIUS, in the seventh book on the Provincial Edict.]
Sicut inpendia cibariorum in seruum, cuius usus fructus ad aliquem pertinet, ita et ualetudinis impendia ad eum respicere1 natura manifestum est.
Just as the expenses for the food of a slave whose usufruct belongs to someone, so also it is naturally manifest that the expenses for his health concern that person.
- 7.1.45.prad eum respicere
The verb respicere with the preposition ad means "to concern" or "to fall upon (as a responsibility)". It governs the accusative subject inpendia to form an accusative-and-infinitive construction, which functions as the subject clause of the impersonal expression natura manifestum est. The pronoun eum refers back to aliquem (the usufructuary) in the relative clause. This same predicate is understood as omitted in the preceding sicut clause.
