50.15b.

se in fidem permittere = put themselves under the protection ("good faith"), etc., more commonly with dat. — se suaque omnia, themselves and all their [possessions] ("their all"): object of permittere. The subj. acc. is regularly expressed in the indir. disc.; but here it is omitted, to prevent the awkward repetition se (subject) se (object). In the next clause se is expressed.
