Tertullian, on Rom 2:14

“For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these having not the law are a law to themselves:”

“Demanding then a law of God, you have that common one prevailing all over the world, engraven on the natural tables to which the apostle too is wont to appeal, as when in respect of the woman's veil he says, "Does not even Nature teach you? " -as when to the Romans, affirming that the heathen do by nature those things which the law requires, he suggests both natural law and a law-revealing nature.”
