III. SALIVARY INCONTINENCE

Salivary incontinence is of two types, sinful and non-consummated sinful.

A. Sins of Expectoration.

Offenses against salivary continence are condemned under the act of expectoration (vulg. "to spit"). This act is known to consist in evacuating upon the ground, or into a receptacle designed with malice to that end, the salivary liquid accumulated in the mouth, by means of deliberate stimulation of the labial and lingual musculature.
