Cognitor autem certis uerbis in litem coram aduersario substituitur. nam actor ita cognitorem dat: QVOD EGO A TE uerbi gratia FVNDVM PETO, IN EAM REM LVCIVM TITIVM TIBI COGNITOREM DO; aduersarius ita: QVIA TV A ME FVNDVM PETIS, IN EAM REM TIBI PVBLIVM MEVIVM COGNITOREM DO. potest, ut actor ita dicat: QVOD EGO TECVM AGERE VOLO, IN EAM REM COGNITOREM DO; aduersarius ita: QVIA TV MECVM AGERE VIS, IN EAM REM COGNITOREM DO; nec interest, praesens an absens cognitor detur. sed si absens datus fuerit, cognitor ita erit, si cognouerit et susceperit officium cognitoris.
