legist

Andrea Dandolo is remembered as a Venetian historian and an accomplished legist, a lover of the arts, and a great humanist.

Covarruvias, a Spanish legist, already quoted, agrees with Arnault Ferton.

Where human statute is beginning to prize the general weal, the legist is of high account, and the priest paramount.

It was a requirement of prudence and safety which commends itself to every logician and legist.

Then as an administrator he reformed the government, as a legist he reissued and revised the laws.
