[ULPIANUS libro quinto decimo ad Sabinum. ] §30.1.19.prLegata inutiliter data Papi-nianus putat libro quaestionum confirmari per repetitionem, id est per hanc scripturam postea forte in codicillis factam: 'hoc amplius ei heres meus dato', et diuersum esse in illa scriptura: 'quas pecunias legaui, quibus dies adpositus non est, annua bima trima die 'heres meus dare damnas esto': non enim hoc egisse testatorem, ut confirmaret quae inutilia sunt, sed ut diem utilibus prorogaret.
[ULPIANUS, Book 15 of Commentary on Sabinus.] Papinian, in his Book of Questions, thinks that legacies invalidly given are confirmed by repetition, that is, by this writing subsequently made perhaps in a codicil: 'my heir shall give him this much more', and that it is different in that writing: 'what money I have bequeathed, for which no day has been appointed, my heir shall be damnable to give on a term of one, two, or three years'; for the testator did not intend this, to confirm what is invalid, but to extend the term for what is valid.
§30.1.19.1Idem eodem loco et in substituto impuberis scribsit, ut, si fuerit ab impubere inutiliter legatum, substitutus hoc debeat, si 'hoc amplius' legatum ab eo sit relictum aliquid nec ille patri heres exstiterit et decesserit.
The same author, in the same place, also wrote regarding the substitute of an impuber: that, if a legacy has been invalidly given by the impuber, the substitute owes this, if any legacy of 'this much more' has been left by him, and that youth did not become heir to his father and died.
§30.1.19.2In legato pluribus relicto si partes adiectae non sunt, aeque seruantur.
In a legacy left to several persons, if the shares are not added, they are preserved equally.
