est quisquam, cum a1 malo dari beneficium non
possit ? " Ea scilicet ratione, quia ipsum, quod
accepit, beneficium non erat, sed vocabatur ; qui2
accipiet ab illo aliquid ex his, quae apud imperitos
sunt, quorum et malis copia est, ipse quoque in simili
materia gratus esse debebit et illa, qualiacumque
sunt, cum pro bonis acceperit, pro bonis reddere.
