GENERAL LAW HAVING REFERENCE TO THE VIEW OF THE SEA, ADDRESSED TO DOMINICK, MOST GLORIOUS PRAETORIAN PREFECT.

( S. P. Scott, The Civil Law, XVII, Cincinnati, 1932 ).

Our mother has taught Us, etc. The view of the sea, ordinarily limited to a hundred feet, shall not be intercepted by any new work, either in the direct line or transversely; and this the present law, while confirming the Constitution of the Emperor Zeno, adds, by way of interpretation, to a Novel previously promulgated.
