- quando plus fit quam fieri debet, videtur etiam illud fieri quod faciendum est
- /kwondow plas fit kwaem fayaray debat, vadiytar esh(iy)am ilad fayaray kwod faeshiyendam est/ When more is done than ought to be done, that at least shall be considered as performed which should have been performed [as, if a man, having a power to make a lease for ten years, make one for twenty years, it shall be void only for the surplus].
