Meaning of vispellio | Babel Free

Noun masculine CEFR B2
[wɪsˈpɛl.li.oː]

Definitions

a thief who specialises in stealing the clothes the dead are buried in

Late-Latin, declension-3

Examples

“c. 530, Digest 36.1.7”

It should be noted that, in a case of this kind, an account of the necessary travelling expenses must be required. For if the heir was appointed under the condition of paying ten aurei to Titius, he cannot be compelled to accept the estate unless the money is tendered to the person entitled to it. Moreover, the condition of health and the rank of the heir must be taken into consideration. But what if, while he was suffering from illness, he would be ordered to go to Alexandria, or take the name of the testator, a grave robber?
