OFFICIA ET MUNERA: see n. on 29. NE SINT: 'grant that age has no strength'. This formula of concession for argument's sake is frequent in Cicero, who often attaches to it sane. A. 266, d; G. 610; H. 515, III. SENECTUTE = senibus: see n. on 26. LEGIBUS ET INSTITUTIS: 'by statute and precedent'. MUNERIBUS EIS etc.: chiefly military service.

'De Legibus'; a discussion on Law in the abstract, and on national systems of legislation 3. 'De Jure Civili'; of which last only a few fragments exist. His historical works have all perished.
