    STUPRUM, INCESTUM, ADULTERIUM

    Stuprum in virgine, incestum in parente vel vidua, adulterium in nupta.

    13. Inter Adulterium et fornicationem. Quod adulterium est alienam uxorem appetere, fornicatio vero non est adulteratio matrimonii foederis, sed cum aliis solutis moechari.

    263. Inter Fornicationem et adulterium. Adulterium [col. 37B] est conjugalis tori inquinamentum, fornicatio vero amor legitimo conjugio solutus, et vagus, explendae libidinis consectando licentiam. Scripturae autem solent fornicationem vocare omnem illicitam corruptionem, sicut est idololatria, et avaritia, ex quibus fit transgressio legis, propter [ Al., per] illicitam concupiscentiam. Fornicatio autem sumpsit nomen a quibusdam aedificiis arcuatis quos fornices antiqui vocabant, 35 in quibus meretrices constitutae prostituebantur. Meretrices autem dicuntur a merendo, id est, promerendo stipendia libidinis. Unde et milites, cum stipendia accipiunt, mereri dicuntur.
