“ To þe womman þat suffreþ flux of blood þow shalt not goo, ne opne þe stynkyngnes of hir. Wiþ þe wijf of þi neiȝbore þow shalt not goo togidir, ne wiþ mengyng togidere of seede þow shalt be defoulid. Of þi seede þow shalt not ȝyue, þat it be sacryd to þe mawmet of Moloch, ne þow shalt defowle þe name of þi God; Y a Lord. Wiþ a maal þow shalt not be mengid, bi maner of goyng to gidere wiþ womman, for abhomynacioun it is. Wiþ alle beestis þow shalt not goo to gidere, ne þow shalt be defoulid wiþ it. A womman shal not vnder ligge to a beeste, ne shal be mengid to it, for hidows synne it is. ”
