species. It has also been used synonymously with sterility.
2. Impotence may be considered as incurable, curable, accidental or
temporary. Absolute or incurable impotence, is that for which there is no
known relief, principally originating in some malformation or defect of the
genital organs. Where this defect existed at the time of the marriage, and
was incurable, by the ecclesiastical law and the law of several of the
American states, the marriage may be declared void ab initio. Com. Dig.
Baron and Feme, C 3; Bac. Ab. Marriage, &c., E 3; 1 Bl. Com. 440; Beck's
Med. Jur. 67; Code, lib. 5, t. 17, l. 10; Poyn. on Marr. and Div. ch. 8; 5
Paige, 554; Merl. Rep. mot Impuissance. But it seems the party naturally
impotent cannot allege that fact for the purpose of obtaining a divorce. 3
