Treated under the broader heading Irregularities — McHugh–Callan, Moral Theology · Bucceroni, Institutions of Moral Theology · Bucceroni, Moral Enchiridion (4th ed., 1905) · Vermeersch, Theologia Moralis · Slater, Cases II · The Casuist · 1917 Code of Canon Law — these works do not divide the matter as finely as we do here, so their treatment stands one heading up (ed.)
