THE ESPOUSAL.
Ancient Ceremony Of the Mutual
Promise of MARRIAGE.

Ancient Ceremony Of the Mutual
l Promise Of Marriage.
The first part of the matrimonial Of
fee was anciently termed the espousal,
which took place some time prior to
the actual celebration Of marriage.
These espousals consisted in mutual
promise of marriage, which was made
by the man and woman before the
bishop or presbyter and several wit
nesses.
After them the articles Of agreement
of marriage. called tabuloe matrimo-
males, which are mentioned by Angus
tine, were signed by both persons. Aft
er this the man delivered to the wom-
an the ring and other gifts, an action
which was termed subarrhation. In
the latter ages the espousals have al
ways been performed at the same time
as the office Of matrimony in all the
churches abroad, and it has long been
customary for the ring to be delivered
to the woman after the contract has
been made, which has always been in
the actual Office Of matrimony.
The ring is special token Of spous-
age. In some of the old manuals for
the use of foreign cathedrals before
the minister proceeds to the marriage
he Is directed to ask the woman's
dowry-viz. the tokens Of spousage-
and by these tokens Of spousage are
to be understood rings or money or
some other things to be given to the
woman by the man, which giving is
called wedding or covenanting, espe-
cially when it is done by the giving Of
q ring.-New York Tribune.
