That this
is so, you will see clearly, when you have heard the law read.Take it please.“Law Regarding AdulteryWhen he has caught the adulterer, it shall not be lawful for the one who
has caught him to continue living with his wife, and if he does so, he shall
lose his civic rights and it shall not be lawful for the woman who is taken
in adultery to attend public sacrifices; and if she does attend them, she
may be made to suffer any punishment whatsoever, short of death, and that
with impunity.”
