The passage discusses whether a right of way granted over a very narrow piece of land is determined to be a right of footway or a right of driving, depending on whether vehicles or beasts can pass.
[POMPONIUS libro quarto decimo ad Quintum Mucium.]
[POMPONIUS in the fourteenth book on Quintus Mucius.]
Si tam angusti loci demonstratione facta1 uia concessa fuerit, ut neque uehiculum neque iumentum ea2 inire possit, iter magis quam uia aut actus adquisitus3 uidebitur: sed si iumentum ea duci poterit, non etiam uehiculum, actus uidebitur adquisitus.
If a way has been granted after a designation of so narrow a place that neither a vehicle nor a beast of burden can enter it, it will seem that a right of footway rather than a way or a right of driving has been acquired; but if a beast of burden can be driven through it, though not also a vehicle, a right of driving will seem to have been acquired.
- 8.1.13.prdemonstratione facta
Ablative absolute construction. The genitive phrase "tam angusti loci" modifies "demonstratione", setting up the condition: "a designation of so narrow a place having been made."
- 8.1.13.prea
The feminine singular ablative of the demonstrative pronoun "is", used adverbially to indicate route or direction: "by that way" or "through it."
- 8.1.13.pradquisitus
Although the grammatical subject is the neuter noun "iter", the predicate participle "adquisitus" is masculine singular due to attraction to the nearby masculine noun "actus" which is also part of the subject disjunction.
