Diocletian's Marriage Edict

by Diocletian, Arthur James Mason

Overview

This document is found in the Codex Gregorianus, column 31*
of Hand’s edition. It is here given as a specimen of the Emperors moral
feeling, and of the strong practical turn which his religion took: and also of
the state of public morals at the time. The translation cannot aspire to much
grace of literary style: but nothing can be heavier than the edict-Latin of the
period.
