Notes
- The use of this verb, formed from the Latin word legatum in the sense of 'bequest', is confined almost exclusively to late legal texts dealing with issues of inheritance. Repeated under lambda 403. For the glossing verb see alpha 3453.
Adler cites as a source for this entry the unedited Lexicon codicis Barocciani 50. For other entries of this sort see comments at epsilon 832.
