ETYMOLOGY
from Latin uxorius (from uxor (wife))
EXAMPLE
“…And gripe their wast within a narrow span:
Fond Caenis that would’dst wish to be a man;
Whose mannish Hus-wiues like their refuse state,
And make a drudge of their vxorius mate,
Who like a Cot-queene freezeth at the rocke,
Whiles his breach’t dame doth man the forren stock…”
From: Virgidemiarum. The three last bookes
By Joseph Hall, 1598
