It is to be observed, however, that even where gifts have been completely executed we have by ourconstitution under certain circumstances enabled donors to revoke them, but only on proof of ingratitude on the part of the recipient of thebounty; the aim of this reservation being to protect persons, who havegiven their property to others, from suffering at the hands of thelatter injury or loss in any of the modes detailed in our constitution.
3 There is another specific kind of gift between the l...iving, with whichthe earlier jurists were quite unacquainted, and which owed itslater introduction to more recent emperors. It was called gift beforemarriage, and was subject to the implied condition that it should notbe binding until the marriage had taken place; its name being due to thefact that it was always made before the union of the parties, and couldnever take place after the marriage had once been celebrated. The firstchange in this matter was made by our imperial father Justin, who, asit had been allowed to increase dowries even after marriage, issued aconstitution authorizing the increase of gifts before marriage duringthe continuance of the marriage tie in cases where an increase had beenmade to the dowry.
