[POMPONIUS libro trigensimo tertio ad Sabinum. ] §39.5.9.prIn aedibus alienis habitare gratis donatio uidetur: id enim ipsum capere uidetur qui habitat, quod mercedem pro habitatione non soluit.
[POMPONIUS in the thirty-third book on Sabinus.]\n\nTo dwell in another's house free of charge is seen as a donation; for he who dwells there is seen to receive this very thing, that he does not pay rent for the dwelling.
potest enim et citra corporis donationem ualere donatio, ueluti si donationis causa cum debitore meo paciscar, ne ante certum tempus ab eo petam. §39.5.9.1Ex rebus donatis fructus perceptus in rationem donationis non computatur: si uero non fundum, sed fructus perceptionem tibi donem, fructus percepti uenient in computationem donationis. §39.5.9.2Quod filius familias patris iussu aut uoluntate donauit, perinde est, ac si pater ipse donauerit aut si mea uoluntate rem meam tu nomine tuo Titio dones. §39.5.9.3Donari non potest, nisi quod eius fit, cui donatur.
For a donation can be valid even without the transfer of a physical thing, as for example if, for the sake of making a donation, I agree with my debtor not to demand payment from him before a certain time.\n\nThe fruit gathered from donated things is not calculated into the account of the donation; but if I donate to you not the land, but the gathering of fruits, the gathered fruits will come into the calculation of the donation.\n\nWhat a filius familias has donated by the order or will of his father is just as if the father himself had donated it, or as if you, by my will, should donate my property in your own name to Titius.\n\nNothing can be donated, unless it becomes the property of him to whom it is donated.
