THE LAW OF THE WESTGOTHS.
71
1. Someone wishes to plow up a fallow, then shall he, who wishes to take
up, make a fence, then seek himself free from it perfect and not imperfect.
Plows someone a separate field, he shall himself fence aronnd it.
2. Someone wishes to enclose his pasture, then he shall make fence
between the pastures. He is not allowed to take in another’s cattle, without
becoming liable to a fine of three sixteenörtugs. And that village is called
grass sparer, which so does.
3. Flows water between two estates, fence each about his allodium, and
may they meet in the center of the stream.
18.
Owns a man an only share in another village, they have right to prove
who live in that village, how large it shall be. That is called land with no
right to prove, if it is not defined by grass strips and land marks. One cannot
nevertheless lawfully testily away the whole field from the owner.
19.
If anyone wishes to move the landmarks, claim that they lie in the wrong
place, then shall a seventh-night-thing be set for this, a call to the thing be
sent out, and a oneday be appointed. Dares he, who disputes with him, defend
himself with two twelfths, that this landmark lies in the right place and not
in the wrong, l)
1. Whosoever breaks up grassrim or landmark, he is by other men called
an out-of-earth-digger. He is liable to a fine of three sixteenörtugs.
20.
Someone mows another man’s meadow, comes he there, who owns it, he
shall take a willowtwig, bite off the bast and so push it into the ground.
That is legal prohibition. He cannot remove it, without becoming liable to a
fine of three sixteenörtugs. There he shall lay the hay in a heap on the
meadow, until they are agreed.
1) This sentence is evidently incomplete, but the rest is missing both here
and in Y. G. L. II.
