Explains the liability under the Lex Aquilia of a person who kills or wounds a slave owned in common, citing the opinion of Celsus.
[ULPIANUS libro octauo decimo ad edictum.]
[ULPIANUS, from the eighteenth book on the Edict.]
Sed si communem seruum occiderit quis, Aquilia1 teneri eum Celsus ait:2 idem est et si uulnerauerit:3
But if anyone kills a slave owned in common, Celsus says that he is liable under the Lex Aquilia; the same is true also if he wounds him.
- 9.2.19.prAquilia
The feminine ablative singular adjective is used alone with the noun lege omitted. It is an ablative of means or ground, meaning "under the Lex Aquilia".
- 9.2.19.prteneri eum Celsus ait
An accusative with infinitive (A.C.I.) construction introduced by the main verb ait. The accusative eum (the person who killed the common slave) functions as the subject of the passive infinitive teneri (to be held liable).
- 9.2.19.pridem est et si uulnerauerit
The conjunction et has the force of "also" or "even", modifying the si clause. The implied subject of uulnerauerit (future perfect indicative or perfect subjunctive active) is quis from the preceding clause.
