The treatise of Lorenzo Valla on the Donation of Constantine

Note 463 — THE DISCOURSE OF LORENZO VALLA ON THE FORGERY OF THE ALLEGED DONATION OF CONSTANTINE

Christopher Bush Coleman translation

Valla’s argument in this paragraph is partly based on the defective text of the Donation which he used, cf. supra, p. 85, note 2. Zeumer’s text would be translated, “all the Roman people who are subject to the glory of our rule,” and Friedberg’s, “all the people subject to the glorious rule of Rome.”
