A manumission expression addressed to a wife may, depending on circumstances, plausibly refer to divorce or to release from an obligation such as personal service.
Where multiple legally intelligible interpretations remain, the text does not treat every occurrence as automatically terminating a marriage. Intention or another indicator is needed to select the intended result.
Contrast this with transfer wording addressed to a free person in an otherwise identifiable marriage setting, where literal ownership is excluded and the context may identify one operative figurative meaning.
