Chapter II. On Contracts in Particular

¶46.

Preliminary Note. It would be excessively long to treat all contracts, which especially in our times have increased to a very great number. But this is not even necessary, because the confessor does not need to know all those contracts. Hence we shall treat only the more principal ones, and indeed: 1. gratuitous contracts; 2. onerous commutative contracts; 3. aleatory contracts.
