 | | Peter Lombard: (c.1100-1160) As theologian and teacher, Peter Lombard, also called Peter the Lombard, was best known for his Book of Sentences. |
 | | Lombard required that there were words of the future, (betrothal) words of the present (saying "I do") and c onsummation, as opposed to Gratian's prerequisites of consent, affection, and consummation. |
 | | Because Lombard enjoined that words of the present, verba de praesenti, needed to be said, not just betrothal, to make a marriage valid, it was not as acceptable to casually have sex if one promised to marry one's partner. |
