which one may enforce if he chooses.

[1913 Webster]

Note: The term was applied to a woman, in the same sense as
outlaw to a man. A woman could not be outlawed, in the
proper sense of the word, because, according to
Bracton, she was never in law, that is, in a
frankpledge or decennary; but she might be waived, and
held as abandoned. --Burrill.
