[IDEM libro sexto decimo epistularum. ] §50.16.246.prApud Labeonem pithanon ita scriptum est: exhibet, qui praestat eius de quo agitur praesentiam. nam etiam qui sistit, praestat eius de quo agitur praesentiam, nec tamen eum exhibet: et qui mutum aut furiosum aut infantem exhibet, non potest uideri eius praestare praesentiam: nemo enim ex eo genere praesens satis apte appellari potest. §50.16.246.1Restituit non tantum, qui solum corpus, sed etiam qui omnem rem condicionemque reddita causa praestet: et tota restitutio iuris est interpretatio.
[From the same author's sixteenth book of Letters.] In Labeo's "Plausibilities", it is written as follows: "He exhibits who provides the presence of the person in question." For he also who produces a person provides the presence of the person in question, and yet he does not exhibit him; and he who exhibits a mute person, a lunatic, or an infant cannot be deemed to provide their presence; for no one of that class can be properly called "present." He restores who provides not only the physical object itself, but also every accessory and condition, with the cause returned; and the whole of restoration is an interpretation of law.
