Paulus explains that a person who has granted a right of way to someone can still grant the same right to other persons, drawing an analogy to establishing a servitude on a building for multiple neighbors.
[PAULUS libro primo epitomarum Alfeni digestorum.]
[PAULUS, book 1 of the Epitome of Alfenus’ Digest]
Qui per certum locum iter aut actum alicui cessisset, eum1 pluribus per eundem locum uel iter uel actum cedere posse uerum est: quemadmodum si quis uicino suas aedes seruas2 fecisset, nihilo minus aliis quot uellet multis eas aedes seruas facere potest.
It is true that a person who has granted to someone a right of way on foot or a right of way for driving through a certain place, can grant either a right of way on foot or a right of way for driving through the same place to several other persons; just as, if anyone has made his house subject to a servitude to a neighbor, he can nevertheless make that house subject to a servitude to as many other persons as he wishes.
- 8.4.15.preum
This pronoun serves both as the antecedent of the preceding relative clause (Qui... cessisset) and as the subject accusative of the infinitive clause (eum ... posse) which depends on the main predicate uerum est.
- 8.4.15.prseruas
This is the feminine accusative plural of the adjective seruus, modifying the noun aedes. It functions as a predicate accusative (object complement) with fecisset and facere, meaning "to make the building subject to a servitude."
