c10.s2.5
"The Emperor himself moderates in all matters of consequence which happen near his Court, for the most part judging *secundum allegata and probata*. Trials are quick and so the executions. The governors in cities and provinces proceed in like form of justice. I could never hear of law written among them : the king and his substitutes' will is Law." (*Ibid*, ix. 47.)
