(2) that either party was of unsound mind, unless that party, after coming to reason, freely cohabited with the other as husband and wife;
(3) that the consent of either party was obtained by fraud, unless that party afterwards, with full knowledge of the facts constituting the fraud, freely cohabited with the other as husband and wife;
(4) that the consent of either party was obtained by force, unless that party afterwards freely cohabited with the other as husband and wife;
