A woman pregnant by a previous husband and a woman nursing her child by a previous husband neither drink nor receive [payment for] their marriage contract; these are the word of R’ Meir. [But] the Sages say: He can separate from her and take her back after a period of time. A sterile woman, or an old woman, or a woman who cannot bear children, neither drink nor receive [payment for] their marriage contract. R’ Eliezer says: He can marry another woman and be fruitful and multiply from her. All other women either drink or [they] do not receive [payment for] their marriage contract.

The wife of a Kohen may drink, and she is [then] permitted [to return] to her husband. The wife of a sterile man may drink. A warning can be issued [even] in respect to all those forbidden in marriage by reason of kinship, with the exception of a minor and one that is not human.
