<GRATIANUS> Set quod sit
inter eos sit coniugium sic probatur.
Coniugium uel matrimonium est uiri et mulieris coniunctio indiuiduam uite
consuetudinem continens. Item consensus utriusque matrimonium facit. Quoniam ergo ab hoc
coniuncti sunt ut indiuiduam uite consuetudinem conseruarent, quia uterque
in alterum consensit, coniuges sunt appellandi. (That
there was a valid marriage is thus proven:
Marriage is the union of a man and woman
keeping the custom of an undivided way of life [Instit.
1.9.1.].
The consent of both
makes a marriage. Those, therefore, who join in order to keep an undivided
way of life, each consenting in the other, must be called married).

consuetudinem vitae continens.
