Quod Deus Opt. Max. bene vertat: Ex decreto et authoritate amplissimi Iurisconsultorum Ordinis in inclyta & celeberrima Basiliensium Academia, pro insigniis & privilegiis Doctoralibus in U.I. consequendis, De Successionibus ab Intestato & cognationis gradibus, eorumque computatione, subsequentes Conclusiones

XXI.
Again, those adopted by a maternal or paternal grandfather cannot aspire to the succession of the natural father; but they are protected only by grandfatherly and great-grandfatherly reverence, just as if they were natural and legitimate together. But if they are emancipated after the father's death, what is the law? Accursius sometimes thinks that a fourth part should be left to them; at other times, that they lack every benefit and lose the succession of both the natural and adoptive father. But we shall attempt whether the contrary opinion can be saved.

XXII.
The arrogatus person adopted under the power of a paterfamilias has all the rights of the adoptive father intact and unblemished; nor is any distinction introduced between adoptive fathers.

XXIII.
In fiefs, adopted children, likewise those who have entered religion, and those born from a marriage contracted in a morganatic original: "morganaticam" (an unequal marriage where the wife and children do not inherit title) manner, do not succeed.

XXIV.
Moreover, one who is mute, deaf, blind, lame, or otherwise imperfect, to whom allodial goods original: "allodialia bona" (lands held in absolute ownership, not held of a lord) are rightly attributed, cannot retain a fief; but nonetheless, food must be provided for them according to the quality of the person, if it cannot be had from elsewhere.

XXV.
Natural children only, or those begotten from a lawful concubine, whom we commonly call Bastards original: "Bastardos", when the father dies without legitimate offspring and wife, and having disposed of no substance, receive two ounces original: "vncias" (twelfths of an inheritance) of the paternal substance, to be shared with the mother, so that the mother receives in proportion to one of the children, provided the deceased did not introduce other concubines to the former.

XXVI.
However, the grandfather or great-grandfather does not transmit two ounces to grandchildren and further descendants born legitimately from a natural son, just as he does not to a natural grandchild from a legitimately born son.

XXVII.
To the mother, however, even an illustrious one, and to all emanating from the maternal line, natural [children] only [succeed], not otherwise than those from a lawful marriage.
