MULIER. A woman, a wife; sometimes it is used to designate a marriageable
virgin, and in other cases the word mulier is employed in opposition to
virgo. Poth. Pand. tom. 22, h.t. In its most proper signification, it means
a wife.
2. A son or a daughter, born of a lawful wife, is called filius
mulieratus or filia mulierata, a son mulier, or a daughter mulier. The term
is used always in contradistinction to a bastard; mulier being always
legitimate. Co. Litt. 243.
3. When a man has a bastard son, and afterwards marries the mother, and
has by her another son, the latter is called the mulier puisne. 2 Bl. Com.
