What is not a property will be a
difference: it is, for instance, one thing to be a slave,
and another to be in a state of servitude; hence the
distinction raised in connexion with persons assigned
to their creditors for debt: A slave, if he is manumitted becomes a freedman, but this is not the case with
one who is assigned. There are also other points of
difference which are dealt with elsewhere.1
