Ex spectabilis domini decani, et amplissimi iurisconsultorum, in inclyta Basiliensium Academia, ordinis, consensu & decreto, subsequentes theses, ex L. unica §. & cum lex C. de rei ux. actio. &c. cum contingat de iureiurando

Large ornamental initial P at the beginning of the first paragraph.

The Julian Law prohibits the alienation of dowried property—whether it be urban or rustic, in whole or in part—whenever an action for the recovery of the dowry belongs or shall belong to the wife.

As much in a marriage begun as in one consummated; as much in a putative marriage as in a true one.

For it is in the interest of the Republic that the dowries of wives be preserved in every way.

These things proceed to such a degree that, from an agreement of such alienation, no obligation arises with respect to the wife, nor is ownership transferred, even if delivery intervenes.

Even if the wife consents to the alienation.

For since women, by their frailty and weakness, can be led into a sudden lack of their own resources, their consent regarding the alienation of dotal land carries little weight.

Therefore, a surety given by the wife for this cause shall not be bound.
