“I forbid you ever to enter Churches, or to go into a market, or a mill, or a bakehouse, or into any assemblies of people.
Also I forbid you ever to wash your hands or even any of your belongings in spring or stream of water of any kind; and if you are thirsty you must drink water from your cup or some other vessel.
Also I forbid you ever henceforth to go out without your leper’s dress, that you may be recognized by others; and you must not go outside your house unshod.
Also I forbid you, wherever you may be, to touch anything which you wish to buy, otherwise than with a rod or staff to show what you want.
Also I forbid you ever henceforth to enter taverns or other houses if you wish to buy wine; and take care even that what they give you they put into your cup.
Also I forbid you to have intercourse with any woman except your own wife.
Also I command you when you are on a journey not to return an answer to any one who questions you, till you have gone off the road to leeward, so that he may take no harm from you; and that you never go through a narrow lane lest you should meet some one.
Also I charge you if need require you to pass over some toll-way (pedagium) through (?) rough ground (super apra), or elsewhere, that you touch no posts or things (instrumenta) whereby you cross, till you have first put on your gloves.
Also I forbid you to touch infants or young folk, whosoever they may be, or to give to them or to others any of your possessions. p276
Also I forbid you henceforth to eat or drink in any company except that of lepers. And know that when you die you will be buried in your own house, unless it be, by favour obtained beforehand, in the Church.”
