[PAULUS, in the single book on the Speech of the Divine Severus.] which, however, private individuals are permitted to possess:
Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §27.9.4.pr
Pupil's Mines and Quarries Permitted in Private Ownership
Summary
It adds a qualification regarding the mines or quarries owned by a pupil, specifying that they must be things which private individuals are permitted to possess.
Notes
- §27.9.4.prquod tamen priuatis licet possidere — The relative pronoun quod (neuter singular) refers back across the fragment boundary to the phrase quid aliud huic simile or the preceding list of mines in the previous fragment (27.9.3.6). The impersonal verb licet takes the dative priuatis and the infinitive possidere, introducing a qualification: 'which, however, private individuals are permitted to possess'.
