���� [Adultery] [(adulterium)] [pro[[‑]] perly spoken of marryed per[[‑]] sons; but if onely
���� one of two persons by whom this sin is committed, be marryed, it makes
���� [Adultery]. [Adulterium] seems to have taken that name, as it were [ad alterius
���� thorum], [i.] to [anothers] bed, which the Adulterer always ayms at. [Minsheu.]]

���� [Alimonte] [(alimonia)] [nou[[‑]] rishment: But in a modern legal sense it signifies,
���� that portion or allowance, which a marryed woman sues for, upon any occasional

���� lopement] or [Adultery].]

���� ives, as many did; The woman so divor[[‑]] ced was to have of her Hus[[‑]] band a
���� writing (as [[St.] Hierom] and [Joseph], witness in [l. de ant. [DI] 4. c. 8.]) to this
���� effect, I promise that hereafter I will lay no claim to thee, and this writing was called
���� a [Bill of D ivorce]. But with Christians this custom is abrogated, saving onely in case
���� of Adultery. The anci[[‑]] ent Romans also had a custom of Divorce, among whom
���� it was as lawful for the Wife to put away her Husband, as for the Husband to dismiss
���� his Wife; But among the [Israelites] this prerogative was onely permitted to the
���� Husband. [Bull.] [See Repudiate]. In our Common Law, D i[[‑]] vorce is accounted
���� that sepa[[‑]] ration between two [de facto] married together, which is [`a] vinculo
���� Matrimonii,

���� To Trepan, or rather trap[[‑]] [TR] pan (from the Ital. Trappare or trappolare [i.] to
���� entrap, en[[‑]] snare, or catch in a gin) [in the modern acception of the word, it
���� signifies to cheat, or entrap in this manner; a whore admits a man to be naught with
���� her, and in the very instant, rings a Bell or gives a watch word, and in comes a
���� Pander who pretends to be her husband, and with vapouring and threats, upon the
���� act of adultery, forces |money or bond from the de[[‑]] luded third person. Some
���� take this word to be derived from a [Pander] that does [en[[‑]] trap], or a [trapping
���� pan[[‑]] der].]
