¶Of Rapt.
¶Of Rapte.
This word Rapt in Hebrew is called Cheteph, the Grecians say [Greek or Hebrew], the Latins Rapere, which is to take away by violence, not all manner of ways, but as it were by a certain fury and great violence.1 Wherefore Rapt differeth from theft: because theft may be committed secretly, & without violence. Wherefore in the digestes de Jureiurando, in the law duobus reis it is had: Though a man swear that he hath not rapt any thing away, yet is he not straight way quit of theft. For although that which is done be not rapt, yet it may be theft. So the civil law separateth theft from rapt. But to what things rapt pertaineth,2 it is had in the Digestes De condictione triticearia in the law .1. Things immovable as houses, lands and Farms, are invaded, but things moveable, as things not having life, beasts and men are rapt. But we here entreat of the rapt of things moveable, & yet not of allthings, but of humane bodies, which are by violence taken away for lusts sake.
THys woorde Rapte in Hebrue is called Cheteph, the Grecians saye 〈non-Latin alphabet〉, the Latines Rapere, whych is to take away by violence, not al maner of wayes, but as it were by a certayne fury and great violence.1 Wherefore Rapte differeth from theft: bycause theft may be commited secretely, & wythout violence. Wherfore in the digestes de Iureiurando, in the law duobus reis it is had: Though a man sweare that he hath not rapte any thing away, yet is he not straight way quit of theft. For although that which is done be not rapte, yet it may be theft. So the ciuil law seperateth theft from rapte. But to what thynges rapte pertayneth,
