Punishments

for ever, or undergoing such an inflammation
as can not be reduced without suppurating. And of
this let it be the business of the Surgeon to take care.

This is the punishment for those who
take advantage of the calamity of fire to commit
theft, or robbery, or criminal devastation.

Punishment for
Subornation of
Perjury

The ignominious punishment for Subornation
of Perjury shall be as follows.
1. The offender shall stand handcuffed: with his
hands behind him, and tied to the Pillar of
Disgrace
2. About his neck shall be a rope with
which he shall be tied closely to the Perjurer
as if whispering in his ear.
3. If the Perjurer can not be punished at
the same time, or if the offence consisted in
an uneffectual endeavour to suborn, the
assignee of a man undergoing the punishment
of Perjury shall be substituted.

Cap of ignominy

Every offender who for any first or second-rate
crime suffers ignominious punishment
shall during for so long as all the time that he is undergoing
the said punishment, wear the cap of ignominy.
The cap of ignominy is a four-sided cap
made of pasteboard, in the manner of a tower
with a hollow as it were in the floor of the
tower
