     [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

     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

     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].]
