Notes

  1. §47.2.2.prmanifestum et nec manifestum — Although the subject "genera" is neuter plural, these adjectives are in the neuter singular. This is because they agree with the implied noun "furtum" (neuter singular), referring to each individual type of theft ("furtum manifestum" and "furtum nec manifestum").
