from a review in the Wall Street Journal, 5/23/96:
"... the Statute of Treasons of 1351, under which anyone who violated the
wife of the heir to the throne was guilty of high treason. ... This law,
as it happens, is still on the books. This means that if the present
Princess of Wales were to take lovers, she and they could still, in
theory, be hanged."
