Notes
- §17.1.23.prualetudinis aduersae uel capitalium inimicitiarum — These phrases are in the genitive case, functioning as modifiers of a noun indicating cause or reason (such as "causa", meaning "by reason of") which would follow, or as genitives of cause. Although this fragment is cut short, it originally formed the beginning of a sentence continuing "[if renunciation was made] on account of adverse health or deadly enmities [or other just cause...]."
