privity

A divine mystery; something known only to God, or revealed only in holy scriptures.

But yet there is a place that men clepe the school of God, where he was wont to teach his disciples, and told them the privities of heaven.

Privacy, secrecy.

Him oft and oft I askt in priuitie, / Of what loines and what lignage I did spring[…].

A private matter, a secret.

The genitals.

Having ended the delights of nature, they were wont to wipe their privities [translating catze] with perfumed wooll.

A relationship between parties seen as being a result of their mutual interest or participation in a given transaction, e.g. contract, estate, etc.

There is no privity, (as the lawyers say),—that is, no mutual recognition, consent and agreement—between those who take these oaths, and any other persons.
