Reading edition
Richter, op. cit., 43 ff., cites several cases as evidence. On the other hand, the Wittenberg decisions analyzed by Mejer, Zum Kirchenrechte, 196 ff.; and those published by Schleusner, "Zu den Anfängen prot. Eherechts," ZKG., XIII, 130 ff., 142 ff., follow mainly the conservative direction. In this connection read the "Antwort auff etliche Fragen und Gegenwurff" in Sarcerius, Vom heil. Ehestande, 204 ff.; or in idem, Corpus juris mat., 248 ff.
