A quick definition of corsnaed:

Term: CORSNAED

Definition: Corsnaed is a type of ordeal that was used in the past to determine if someone was guilty or innocent of a crime. The accused person would be given a piece of bread or cheese that a priest had blessed and charged to stick in the throat of the guilty. If the person choked, they were declared guilty, but if they didn't, they were declared innocent. This was believed to be a divine revelation of the person's guilt or innocence. Corsnaed was a primitive form of trial that was commonly used in Europe until the 13th century, but only sporadically after 1215, when the Fourth Lateran Council forbade the clergy from participating in ordeals.

A more thorough explanation:

Corsnaed is a type of ordeal that was used in the past as a primitive form of trial. It involved giving the accused person a piece of bread or cheese that a priest had charged to stick in the throat of the guilty. If the person choked, they were declared guilty, and if they did not, they were declared innocent. This type of ordeal was also known as the ordeal of the morsel.

An example of corsnaed would be if someone was accused of stealing, and they were given a piece of bread or cheese to eat. If they choked on it, they would be considered guilty of the crime. If they did not choke, they would be considered innocent.

This type of ordeal was used in the past to determine guilt or innocence, and it was believed that God would reveal the truth through the outcome of the ordeal. Corsnaed was just one of many types of ordeals that were used, including ordeals by fire, water, and hot iron.

Overall, corsnaed was a dangerous and painful way to determine guilt or innocence, and it was eventually replaced by other forms of trial, such as the criminal trial jury.
