Notes

  1. 42.5.20.pruel surdo muto — Datives standing in apposition to or parallel with the dative phrase `quasi debilibus uel prodigis` (as to those who are disabled or prodigal) in the preceding text of Ulpian (§42.5.19.1). This fragment from Paulus was excerpted and placed here by the compilers of the Digest to continue and supplement Ulpian's text.
