proejudicium

Updated: May 13, 2025

With others, the old and fair proejudicium against the claims of Rome, which had always asserted itself even against the stringent logic of Mr. Ward and the deep and subtle ideas of Mr. Newman, became, when closed with, and tested face to face in the light of fact and history, the settled conviction of life.

R. W. (Richard William) Church - The Oxford Movement: Twelve Years, 1833-1845

"You are accused before us, primo, of nocturnal disturbance; secundo, of a dishonorable act of violence upon the person of a foolish woman, in proejudicium meretricis; tertio, of rebellion and disloyalty towards the archers of the police of our lord, the king. Explain yourself upon all these points. -Clerk, have you written down what the prisoner has said thus far?"

Victor Hugo - Notre-Dame De Paris
