Quadrantem Crispus tabulis, Faustine, supremis
non dedit uxori. “Cui dedit ergo?”, Sibi. Crispus, by his last will, Faustinus, did not give his wife a farthing. “To whom, then, did he give it?”. To himself. Nel testamento, o Faustino, non un soldo Crispo ha lasciato alla moglie. “A chi dunque ha lasciato?”. A se stesso. |
