Note 474 — Book XIII.
John Beames translation
The words inserted in this parenthesis have been thought to be an interpolation of a later date. (1. Reeves’ Hist. Eng. Law. 189.) Yet this suggestion may very reasonably be questioned—as the passage seems merely assertive of what must necessarily be the fact. It was a consequence of fixing the time of limitation to the coronation of the king, his Journey into Normandy, or any other event, that the time itself must be altering daily. (Vide 2 Inst. 94.)
