A translation of Glanville

Note 372 — Book X.

John Beames translation

The Terms mutui, venditionis, commodato, locato, deposito, are evidently borrowed from the Civil Law. But we are not from hence to conclude, as Bishop Nicholson hastily did, that Glanville apes, as he expresses it, the Roman Code. (Scotch Historical Library, 255.) This, of all faults, is the least imputable to the venerable Glanville.—On the term mutuum see Note 1. p. 204. Infra.
