Est autem jus publicum et privatum, quod ex naturalibus praeceptis aut gentium, aut civilibus est collectum; et quod in jure scripto jus appellatur id in lege angliae rectum esse dicitur

Public and private law is that which is collected from natural precepts or from nations or from citizens; and that which in the written law is called jus, in the English law is said to be right.
