3307. About a woman who desired promiscuous sex

There was a woman who, not knowing what the marriage debt is, i.e., that only one wife and one husband make a marriage, was examined, and found to be the kind to desire promiscuous sex. Because she was at the same time deceitful, she was chastised by means of a long snake that entered, and then-because she was unwilling to stop defending [the practice]-by the snake taking away her tongue, after which she was sent to Gehenna. 1748, 24 Sept.
