- Note
- "Actual meaning of "Right of the Lord:" first night or first three nights of a new marriage are consecrated to God. Interpretation of this custom, especially during Middle Ages, went into the direction of letting the young bride sleep her first night of marriage with her husband's friends or even with the clergyman. There are those who claim that this custom is strictly an invention of modern times, and never did exist anywhere, nor in any form."--English title page.
