Matrimonial disturbance or disturbance of conjugal
rights is where a person without lawful cause (A) is concerned (B) in
hindring (C) a husband (D) from enjoying the privileges (E) of his condition.

Exposition

[(A) Lawful Cause] See Justifications infra
[(B) Concerned] See Tit. [Co-Offenders]
Hindrance- no matter by what means. [(C) Hindering] 1. It matters not by what means: whether by
carrying away or detaining or harbouring the wife with or against
her own consent, so it be against the will of her husband: or whether
it be by doing her any personal injury. See the several sorts of
Personal Injuries.
2. If it be by doing any injury to the Wife the Offender will
of course be punished according to the nature of the injury: the Offence
is considered here only upon the footing of an injury to the
husband.
[(D) A Husband] The same Offence with relation to a Wife is
not punished at the suit of the Wife, on account of the subordination
of her condition and the modesty of her Sex.
[(E) Privileges] To wit Conversation and carnal Knowledge.
