Primary text

Retribution for a partial severance of the male organ is assessed based on measured parts, not surface area. For example, one half is taken for half, and one quarter for a quarter, with proportionality for any variation, following the principles established for the nose and ear. This is generally agreed upon based on textual evidence and logical reasoning.
