***HARNESSED BUCKS***

Being an episode within which a richly anticipated scene -- that of the
hero's public and thorough whipping in calculated detail -- is slowly and
tediously worked towards, and the reader may be justifiably enraged at the
poorly planned anti-climax.

PART THE SIXTH

The drinking and merry-making men with the stamina to remain awake until
the dawn did have some fun with me, and it is my duty to report that I did
seem to give them their fun.  Harnessed from my neck to my balls in a
man-leash and placed atop a pair of women's very high heels, with my hair
trimmed and braided expertly and affixed with tingling, shining bells, and
with my pubic hairs similarly decorated, and with rings pierced through my
ears and nipples and also grievously through my poor cock-head, I did
prance about at their bidding.  My own stamina was sorely tested, for I had
no choice but to hop and skip, for the man-leash is a thing designed to
give the restrained male-buck no latitude for movement excepting those
movements whereby his captor may dictate.  Also, I had been given no choice
in the shameful, feminine decorations I had been made to wear, and these
things have been described in the previous chapter.

The accursed Corsair louts had not sought to release my wrists from the
fixtures at the rear of my neck-collar, and this accursed collar and its
attaching leash which went from the accursed shackle about the base of my
testicles -- to the collar -- and then to the accursed hands of a
slobbering Corsair retard did become the thing I most hated in the world as
I strutted and paraded for their amusement.  The retarded nitwit did jerk
the leash this way -- and I was forced to flounce and frolic this way also
-- and he yanked the leash that way -- and I did subsequently follow that
way with a wiggle and a little dance, and I was compelled to make these
movements in order to safeguard my accursedly shackled nuts, and I was
otherwise buck-naked, and all who saw me were firstly surprised and then
engrossed in observing me as I bopped and boogied in high-heels on the
accursed leash with my elbows upheld and my hands behind my neck.

My ass did pivot and turn with quick movements as I ran, in order that my
loin follow diligently the jerks and tugs of the man-shackle about my nuts,
and these things have been described in previous chapters but nevertheless,
the author of this parchment is intent upon conveying to the reader the
fact of the man-harness being no more tolerable to the tethered buck
through continued use.

I did become most angry, and my grunts and curses did attempt to transmit
to the assembled group of moronic fuck-tards and onlookers the extent of my
annoyance, and I did begin to kick and strain against the leash, and the
pulling at my balls which resulted did make me yowl louder in my passion.
The leash was gripped more firmly and the imbeciles who held it did shout
excitedly that the bucking younker did fight against his harness.  It was
wound around a tavern veranda-pole and pulled taught, and my high-heels did
dig and scrape in the dust and a slick sheen of sweat did rise on my naked
body.

"THE MORE YOU KICK, MY BIG BUCK-STUD, THE MORE YOU WILL BE EFFECTIVELY
BROKEN!"  A good-natured oaf did cry as he slapped me hard on my
butt-cheek.

As these machinations were in progress, I did fail to notice the arrival of
a troop of Corsair soldiers on horseback, but these soldiers did announce
their disconcertion at the sight beheld before them and after I became
aware of their presence, it did take me but a few moments to discern they
were most angry also.  They seized the leash from the rustic simpletons and
wasted no time in hauling off their prisoner.

Thusly, I was relieved from the hands of the drunken yobs, but
unfortunately, my gratitude was something I saw fit to suppress.  I ran to
the movements of the jerking man-leash, and my pace was set very fast, and
the riding soldiers did allow for no measure of slowness due to the
high-heels buckled at my ankles, and I did scuttle with much hurry, my
knees riding high as never before.  I did clippety-clop close to the arse
of a shitting mare and did receive a generous spray of manure, and I did
puff and strain to keep up with no more breath for anger, for I did
naturally understand that the soldiers would not tolerate any negligence on
the part of their man-harnessed, running buck -- high-heels or not.

Toward the garrison I did run in a desperate, woman's lope, and I did owe
my division instructors some measure of thanks for the fitness they had
imbued in me and for the numerous pack-drills I had endured.

As we entered the gates of the garrison I did see a row of new prisoners
making an exit, and some of these men I did recognise from my division, and
they did express much surprise at the sight of me, and I did hear them
remark with much incredulity upon my naked, running form, for these men
were still clothed and were formed into orderly ranks without the need for
man-leashes, and they did comment on my swinging braids of hair and the
tinkling bells I did wear, and upon my ringed nips and especially upon the
heavy piercing through my cock-head, which they could see, and I did come
to realise that these prisoners had already been ransomed for freedom.  The
situation of these happy men did stand in contrast to my own condition --
too pretty and lithesome and svelte about the waist to be sold off except
for a price higher than my division commanders were willing to pay.  And I
had no doubt that my high-heels did serve to accentuate my attractiveness
and that these other prisoners did understand these facts also.

I was drawn immediately to a special room so that a particular Corsair
commander may see me, and other important ranks also, and soldiers did bark
at me angrily to stand still in my heels upon a small wooden crate where I
may be observed by the row of officers as they sat behind a long table
laden with important papers and writing-quills and bottles of ink, and the
soldiers did make no hesitation in informing these officers of my crimes.

"The prisoner has gone naked to a beer-house and has been observed
cavorting and fraternising with the citizenry of the town!" the row of
officers was informed, and at this information the officers did assume
grave expressions upon their faces.

"Sirs, observe!  The prisoner is wearing the footwear of a person prepared
for gallivanting in the perversions of a man dressed as a woman!" the
officers were told.  "And this is further evidence that the prisoner has
been swilling and brothel-carousing in a manner which is no good!"

The gold-uniformed commander did blow and huff and grow red, and the other
officers did mutter amongst themselves in an agitated manner.

"The Sirs will further scrutinize the manner of the prisoner's hair, and
its braidings and lacings, which is proof that the prisoner has been
whoring and punking in the manner of a bordello-harlot or twink-for-rent!
And it is an unsavoury duty to draw the Sirs' attention to the hairs about
the prisoner's exposed man-organ and teste-sack, which have also been
braided and decorated in an outrage to Corsair civility!"

At this, many of these officers did appear to expel steam from their ears,
and the commander did thump the table in consternation.  The accusations
against me continued.

"The prisoner is affixed with a variety of twinkly, chiming gee-gaws and
gimcracks which pierce his skin and offer disagreeable enticement to the
base, degenerative urges of the lower orders of society!  Observe the
prisoner's ear-lobes -- pierced with dangling bits like a woman's -- and
the prisoner's protruding nips, which pout and swell with newly ensconced
jewellery -- and especially the prisoner's penis-head, which is purple and
blood-flamed with a rude ornament which pushes back the foreskin and
dangles with much vulgarity!"

At this juncture, I did begin to utter some words in my defence, for whilst
these accusations may be seen clearly and visibly to be true, presented to
the court as they were, I did wish to heartily explain their circumstances
and context.  But immediately I opened my mouth, every person in the room
did become suddenly and explosively excited and angry, and a hard rubber
ball was shoved into my gob to silence me, and was tightened in place by a
strap about my head, and my jaw was forced wide open and my tongue
depressed and my voice constricted utterly, and this did make me breath
through my nose only and make my mouth open and bulge in a silent scream.
Still, my accusers did seek to condemn me further.

"The Sirs will study the shamefully nude condition of the prisoner and his
slender stance, and the prisoner will demonstrate a girlish walk and strut
for the Sirs in this very room, wilfully gyrating and rebelliously mincing
in complete disrespect for the ranks of the good Sirs!"

My cock leash was taken in hand, and unable to protest, I did indeed strut
and mince.  My high-heels did click and clack up and down before the long
table.  My bare ass did revolve and turn before the outraged gentlemen.  My
leash was gripped and twisted extra-specially, so that I may reveal my
guilt diligently, and my loins and hips did seek to circulate in finely
calculated movements, and the tight man-shackle about my nuts did assist me
most assiduously in demonstrating the required enthusiasm in my mincing,
and there was a tuneful accompaniment to my display provided by the many
little silver bells attached to me, and this whole presentation before the
enraged officers did not require any vocal supplement on my part, for the
ball-gag did block my throat and keep me silent.

It did seem to me that the prisoner had done quite enough in proving his
guilt, but in case any doubt remained, the sashaying, naked buck did
continue to prance and mince, and my widened eyes did catch the look of
every officer in turn as they remained seated at the table, and I did
fathom their looks upon my gracefully moving butt and my swinging
meat-schlong as it swayed like a heaving rope with its metal ring.

These officers did discuss amongst themselves the evidence which had been
presented before them, and they did presently announce that a punishment
would be carried out that mid-afternoon, and the smoothly rippling and
undulating bare buttocks of the prisoner did eventually retreat from them,
through the door to the outside compound, where I found more stern
soldiers.

At the beginning of this chapter I did seek to describe to the reader how I
did run and hop in both man-leash and high-heels, and I did employ many
adjectives and descriptive words to do so, and this is in spite of the fact
I had also previously made these descriptions in preceding chapters.  As
the reader wearies of these repetitive explanations -- of the cock-shackled
young buck in collar and harness, tripping and hopping on his way,
stretching to the movements of the leash -- the reader may consider my own
weariness at the continuation of these extensions as I ran again -- bopping
and boogieing and hopping and skipping, and making use of any dance step
which may occur to me and which I may employ to ease my way in the horrid
harness.  If the leash was jerked thus, I did tango.  And if it was pulled
in a slightly different way, I did salsa.  And if the soldier who held it
did move his hand to wipe his nose, I did change my step to a foxtrot.  And
if he did slap at a passing insect, I did instantly perform a rumba.  And
so I did waltz and swing and frisk and gambol and perform my jitterbug in a
most unmanly fashion.  And the buck did jive and bop and bump and grind on
his leash, and did strive not for clumsy hoofing, but for fine movements as
his balls were pulled along, for the man-leash is a very cleverly designed
device and the man must exert himself hard to continue its distinctive
choreography.  And if the leash be tweaked neatly and delicately in a
certain fashion, I did find that I must execute the finest ballet steps,
and indeed, how I did wish that I had excluded the soldiering profession
from my options when visited by the career-advice officer at my
high-school, and instead chosen to join the ballet academy and performed
for an appreciative crowd rather than the laughing Corsairs who now leered
at me as I wriggled and ran, naked, cock swinging and butt shaking.

I was brought to a central part of the town, the same open square where the
bucks had previously been cock-yoked, and the same raised platform did
exist here where the populace may view a display of some form or another.
The soldiers did waste no time in affixing me in a certain manner.

My ankles were tied to pulleys and hoists, and I was drawn up-side-down
into the air, my legs parted widely between two poles -- so widely, in
fact, that I did nearly split in two, and I did dangle with my head near
the floor of the platform.  Thusly, I was exhibited publicly, hoisted to
the frame.  In front of me, the public may view the suspended buck-youth
with his penis hanging up-side-down to his belly, and the ring pierced
through it clearly shown.  Behind me, although I could not see, the buck's
well-muscled backside did bare itself in the morning sun and his smooth
hams did glow and gleam as if I were a slab of meat on display.  And
indeed, early shoppers did visit the butcher's shop, and this I could see
in my inverted visage, and they did buy sausages and bacon and whole sides
of beef after weighing and testing and inspecting, and I did also see the
shoppers finalise their purchase and then come out to view the hanging buck
on the platform as if he too were a prize piece of meat for sale.  And my
shining flesh did make sweat and did oil itself, presenting a premier
example of well-toned young beef.  And my restrained arms did expose my
greasy pits so that discerning shoppers may see the best ribs of beef and
flanks of muscle.

As the market-day did mature, more people did arrive, and all these people
did seem interested to see the naked buck strung out for punishment and
they did view me with some level of intensity.  A tribe of emo-kids did
appear, and they did seem bored and disinterested in every thing except for
the music-iBoxes stuck in their ears, and they did sniff and flounce with
much indifference at everything about them, except that I did discern that
some of them did view the naked buck on display with some interest.  A
black-clothed emo-boy did catch my eye as I saw him shuffling across the
dusty square, and I saw him pretending to his girl-friend that he was
completely uninterested in the young buck hanging by his heels, but I did
see that this boy did want to look at my testicles and my cock with its
silver ring, and his eyes did dart and flutter at my appearance, and I
could do naught but look back at him, as my arms were fixed behind my neck
and my legs were wide-spread between the wooden poles.

Then, some skater-kids did come, and they did shuffle about with their
skate-boards and their trendy t-shirts in the market square.  And a
uniformed security guard did draw their attention to the naked buck
swinging by his feet and did tell them that any misbehaviour on their part
might see one of them similarly strung-up.  But these skater-kids could
tell that the uniformed security guard was of very low intelligence -- as
are most of that profession -- and did posses the brain-power of a zombie,
and the most important thing is his life was his uniform which so
designated him, and they did spurn and laugh at him without him realising
such, and while he did think to boss them around, they did so make him an
object of fun, and one pretty skater-boy with long, blonde hair did wink
and smile at me in a conspiratorial manner, and for one moment I did feel
that I had a valuable ally, and my cock did stiffen.

I swung in the air by my heels for some hours, and the pretty skater-boy
with long, blonde hair did return to see me, and to my surprise, we did
have a conversation.

For the pretty skater-boy to talk openly with the suspended enemy soldier
did seem a somewhat unorthodox and courageous thing, and I did surmise that
this boy did harbour a rebellious nature, for he was easily able to
converse with his young friends instead, including his pretty girl-friend,
but chose instead to talk with me.

"Why are you suspended by your heels in the public square, your legs spread
so widely?" said the pretty skater-boy.

"Because I am a captured soldier and must bear the punishments contained
herein for the entertainment of the Corsair populace and for the reader of
this parchment," I replied to him.

"Then why are you completely naked except for the leather restraint buckled
about your neck and your man-parts?" asked the curious, blonde-headed boy.

"Because your Corsair army must restrain its prisoner thusly, and make him
hobble and run to its will," replied I.

"In that case," the talkative boy continued.  "Why are you wearing a pair
of woman's shoes, silver and high-heeled and furnished with little bells
and now pointing toward the sky on your inverted feet, where myself and my
skater-friends are most careful about what we wear and how we appear, and
would sooner stay home than go out in such shoes?  Even my girl-friend."

"Because," I answered.  "Your Corsair people have seen fit to shod me thus,
and I assure you that this foot-ware is not worn by my choice, and I would
much rather go about the town square in British Knight high-tops, as you
do, with a skateboard under my arm and a superior air of nonchalance."

"Why then," asked the pretty boy.  "Is your hair most carefully braided and
combed in a manner most unsoldierly, with more bells and little ribbons, so
that you may appear as a girl and not a proper prisoner of war?"

"Because," I said.  "So that I may appear amusing to persons such as
yourself and others.  And I take great care in pointing out to a person,
such as yourself, that I am not a girl at all, and that I am a fit young
man-buck, and this should be obvious to a person such as yourself, who sees
me displayed naked in public, with my balls hanging and my schlong
exposed!"

"Why," the pretty young skater persisted.  "Are your ears pierced with
large gold rings?  And your nips also?  My friends did call attention to
this detail, and wonder if you did like to go about with these decorations
as a poofter."

"May I assure you," I said.  "That this jewellery, whilst fairy-like and
most un-manly, was applied to me by certain unsavoury persons who did seek
not to enquire whether such things are to my taste, and did pierce my flesh
with little sympathy!"

"Your cock is pierced also," the boy observed.  "Right through the head,
and the silver ring pushes back your uncut foreskin so that all may see
your purple meat, and this makes me think that such a thing would hurt."

"This thing does hurt," I replied.  "How would you like a sharp bodkin run
through your cock?"

The inquisitive skater-boy did continue his enquiries, such is the nature
of a young mind presented with new, interesting facts, and the sweating,
naked slab of beef suspended on the platform did seem to represent much
that was intriguing to the boy.

"You are naked," he cleverly observed.  "How is it that you may show
yourself in public in such a shameful manner?  Do you wish to show-off your
lean muscularity to any lady who may come to the square?  I'm not gay, but
I do understand that ladies like to look at the firm backside of a buck,
such as yours that is exposed, and I will now walk around behind you to see
this tightly-muscled piece, for my girl-friend did exclaim upon it, and I
may ask you how you did come to posses such well-conditioned cheeks."

"You may view my bum," I said.  "For it is bared up-side-down in public
with little regard for my modesty, but if you want to posses a neat,
efficient rump such as this one, then I would recommend you run thirty
miles fully packed every day, and I can see that your own youthful backside
is small and well-proportioned and suited to such work so that it may
become attractive to ladies, even though it is clothed with trendy jeans
right now which are slung down low, exposing the waistband of your briefs,
and I would say that you should ditch the skateboard and take up a more
worthy pastime, such as cycling or surf-life-saving."

"Surf-life-savers are gay," said the boy.  "And I don't want to be one,
because they display themselves almost naked, such as you are now, and I am
at a self-conscious age whereby image and skateboards are of upmost
importance, and I am unlikely to follow your advice as to improving my
rump, as my girl-friend likes it already and I do not want to attract gay
surf-life-savers who would seek to fuck it."

Here, the reader may pause and wonder how on earth the harnessed buck came
to be talking of gay surf-life-savers with a petulant skater-kid, whilst
suspended naked from his heels in the public square, and in this, the
reader may be quite justified in wondering what on earth happened to the
scene of a good tawse-whipping, promised for the buck at the end of the
previous chapter, but it is necessary to inform the reader that these
conversations are not the fruit of an idly distracted author with
frivolously scribing pen and ink -- but rather a completely true account of
what did happen, and the reader is reminded that a good, traditional
tawse-whipping will follow, even if the word-count goes over.  As for the
skater-kid; will the reader please imagine this kid paddling the suspended,
up-side-down buck on his backside -- with the flat end of his skateboard?
And, further, perhaps the reader will imagine -- if he can -- that this
action is carried out for the favourment of the buck and not as an intended
hurt.  The reader may well be confused.  But the reader is encouraged to
read on!

"You're going to be tawse-whipped," the boy said to me.  "And you will find
this to be a most regretful thing, for I have seen captured bucks in
similar situations upon this platform, and heard them howl in dismay, and
every cut of the tawse brings forth more howls from the buck and cheers
from the crowd."

"Because you are a most pretty thing," the skater-boy continued.  "With
your braids and your rings, and because I find you a likeable lad, I will
deliver to you a useful lecture."

"When the cuts of the tawse are landed, you must shout out the number, for
the tawse-master -- or whatever you call him -- will strike your ass with
the whip, and he will forget each cut that you do not call out.  Thusly,
you must shout `Sir, One Sir,' after the first cut, and then `Sir, Two,
Sir,' at the second, and so on, for the fellow is an expert at landing the
leather on your bum, but a very forgetful rake, and his maths does not
add-up, and no one will remind him of the number of cuts except yourself,
and you will beg him to know the total number."

I found this skater-boy to be a friendly person and I had no doubt that the
information he gave to me was very valuable, and I did consider this
information most carefully as I hung up-side-down and naked before him.
Next, he told me an unexpected, but nevertheless, helpful thing.

He consulted with his skater-mates, both girls and boys, and they did laugh
and titter amongst themselves in the familiar manner of teen-agers, and
they did look at me and laugh again, and they did hold their hands to their
mouths to stifle their mirth, and I did wonder whether they laughed at the
ring through my cock -- which would seem to be a highly amusing thing to
immature minds -- or whether they laughed at my hair-braids and how they
made me look like a girl, but then I decided that the naked, swinging buck
was a funny thing altogether in its visage and these teen-agers were
naturally amused, and it may be familiar to the mature reader how giggling
teen-agers can be most annoying, and they do continue to giggle even after
the joke is worn out, and they do exhibit this behaviour as if they
themselves make a worn-out joke funnier and funnier, and as this goes on,
the grown-up bystander becomes more annoyed, and that bystander begins to
wonder if the teen-agers are indeed laughing at him, and he wonders whether
perhaps his shoes are on backwards, for something, somewhere, seems to be
so fucking funny that he nearly throws his briefcase at the laughing
teen-agers.

That grown-up who reads the preceding paragraph with some measure of
understanding, may now consider my position.  For at eighteen years of age,
I was a teen-ager myself, but legally an adult, and I was legally suspended
naked, spread to the poles, in a public square, and if any sight was to
bring about mirth in teen-agers, it was the sight of the up-side-down buck
with his dangling penis and balls, and the skater-kids did fall about
themselves, so funny this was.

Nevertheless, the pretty skater-boy did seem intent on improving my
situation -- without subtracting from the entertainment of his mates -- and
he did tell me the following things.

Before the tawse-whip be applied, it be a most beneficial thing for my ass
to be paddled in a lesser way, so that the blood rise and my ass be
prepared in some way for the whip, and this I knew to be so, for whippings
in my division had made this fact evident.  There, the wrong-doing cadet is
tied naked around a post and his comrades fallen-in to watch, and some of
his mates apply birch-branches to his ass to prepare it for the rod, and he
is thankful for this, for the sergeant applies the rod in a vigorous manner
and the cadet does howl stridently when this is done.

The skater-kid did tell me that I would be tawsed late that afternoon and
that he would prepare my backside in some way, and while he told me this,
his little friends did continue to giggle, and I did wonder whether the
well-being of the buck's ass was foremost on their minds, or whether they
were pre-occupied instead with their own amusement.

The square became more crowded and the assembled people did anticipate a
splendid show, for spread out before them was a naked youth, up-side-down
and sweating with nervousness.  People did make excited exclamations to me,
indicating their opinion that there was going to be an enjoyable spectacle.
They did crush against each other and sometimes stumble and argue, for a
tawse-whipping did seem to be a fine thing to behold.  There was much noise
and celebration, and wine-corks were popped, and I saw at the back some
groups ensconce picnic blankets and lay out bread and cheese, and I did
remember the rotten cabbages I had eaten and how hungry I was, for as
everybody knows, a fit lad can eat much.

The enterprising skater-kid was hoisted to the platform and he did perform
the service he had promised.  First, though, I must beg for it.

If a tawse-whipping in a Corsair town-centre be anything like a flogging in
my division, then it is best that the felon's ass be soundly prepared, and
I have even heard that paid bondage mistresses will prepare their male
clients' backsides with a wooden-spoon before applying the riding-crop --
but this is what I have heard said, and is certainly not something with
which I have had personal experience, and I would, in reality, know nothing
of the whereabouts or the conditions of a bondage mistress's parlour and I
would certainly not have searched the yellow-pages for such a service, nor
made contact with one, or paid ten gold pieces to be paddled with a rubber
strop by Mistress Kitty who wears stockings and suspenders and says
"naughty boy" to her client, who was definitely not me, as I was not tied
to a faux wooden cross-piece and not threatened with such a paddling,
because I never went there, nor did I cry out; "Oh, please Mistress Kitty!
Paddle me harder, for I have been a naughty boy and spilled the ink in
Mistress's fake school-room and I must be punished!."  Indeed, I have never
even considered applying myself of such a facility and if one of my fellows
were to suggest to me that I might go along to a bondage-mistress's parlour
then I would spurn such a suggestion, saying that I would never do such a
thing, and this is certainly true.

Anyway, I had been tied to my division whipping-post once or twice, and I
knew from this that I should be thankful for some preparatory paddling on
my ass, and so I did yell above the din of the crowd for some willow or
birch, and this is why the young skater did perform his lusty service.

He smacked my ass with his skate-board, hard and with both hands, and I did
feel the sting of it, and the crowd did cheer him on.  The reader will
consider this surprising scene.  The fine young buck is suspended
up-side-down, naked, by his heels.  He is wearing high-heeled shoes.  A
large crowd is present, consisting of young and old -- the emo-tribe, the
skater-kids, mum and dad, the intently curious old-man, the road-workers on
a break, the lawyer, the school-teacher, a slobbering drunk here and there
-- and yes -- there too was the widely grinning Thamus with his friends,
and lo!  Here were my fellows!  Triss, Riace, Willard, Luk, and Bron!  And
they were tethered in a line with their man-harnesses, and were forced to
see me.

In this scene, the reader is invited to enjoy the spectacle of the
skater-kid whacking the buck's ass with his skate-board, and listen as the
buck ouches and hoots, for the surface of a skate-board is no soft thing,
and this kid had surfaced it with stick-on grip.  In truth, I was thankful,
for despite my cries to the contrary, I knew that the better my rump was
prepared, the better it would receive the tawse-whip when it came.  Each
slap with the skate-board made a sharp sound and did also arouse enthusiasm
in the audience, who hollered its appreciation, and so ripe and fleshed
were the smacking sounds as the board landed on my quivering cheeks, that I
did begin to wonder if the kid did perform this service not as an act of
charity to myself, but for the amusement of himself and his friends, for
there was much laughter from that quarter.

The reader may consider the vision of me at that moment, the inverted
buck-younker being whacked across his bum with a skate-board while observed
by a rowdy throng, and it is my duty to report that when the Corsair
soldiers came along, they did put an end to the comedy show.  The crowd
hushed somewhat, and the skater-lad was thrown off the stage.  My
hair-braids were cut away with a knife and my nipple-rings were torn out.
My high-heeled shoes were stripped from my feet and thrown away, and these
things were done to me whilst I hung up-side-down.  My silver cock-ring was
tied roughly to my pubic pony-tail, which had been fashioned some hours
earlier by the hair-dresser-boy, and my man-sausage did now fold itself
over, ringed and secured, and I knew that I would never be able to gain an
erection while my meat was thusly tied, and it did hurt, due to the
recentness of the piercing, sideways through my flesh-head.

The whipping man was big and strong and had a hairy, bare chest, and his
hands were as big and as meaty as sides of ham.  The crowd welcomed him
with some measure of enthusiasm, and he did hold the tawse with a
two-handed grip, swinging it about his head.  The leather tail was very,
very long -- and it was oily and black, and I did feel a most unpleasant
sensation in my belly when I saw it.  It whistled in the air, thrice about
the handler's head, and he did test it with an ear-splitting *CRACK* and
the crowd was moved to cheer, and I did flinch and look into the assembled
throng and I saw my friend the hair-dresser-boy, and my other friend the

The author of this parchment has a disappointing confession to make, for
this narrative chapter has already gone on too long, and despite the
promises of a tawse-whipping made near the beginning, that whipping may
well have to wait for the next episode -- and this is a thing regrettable
to the suspended buck as well as to the reader, for punishment is a thing
best gotten over with, and the waiting for it to happen can be a period of
much worry.

Nevertheless, the author has erred in dallying too long talking about
high-heeled shoes and emo-tribes and relating the conversations connected
with such, and now there is no further room to include the main attraction,
and for this, the reader may feel justifiably annoyed, for to come thus far
with the naked buck as he hip-hopped upon his heels and hung naked by his
widely spread ankles making improbable discussions -- and then be deprived
of seeing him soundly whipped -- must surely be a thing most irritating.

What then, if, in the following episode, we see the buck doubly punished
for this transgression?  No number of whip strokes has yet been specified,
and the poor buck waits in terrible anticipation.  Shall it be twelve?
Many spectators would like to see that number doubled, and may make
suggestions regarding this.  Know, though, that the tawse-whip is wide and
long, and *one* stroke of it across your backside is enough to banish the
thought of any more crime.  The burly whip-handler twists the long-tailed
instrument expertly through the air, awaiting these suggestions called from
the crowd.

Discussion in this quarter was also meant to focus briefly upon the whipped
cadet, punished by his sergeant in his division, and this punishment would
serve as a useful comparison.  The stripped cadet is wrapped about the
division flogging post in front of his fellows, and his bare rump is
harshly rodded with much sound, and while the cadet may howl and holler,
this is a punishment for boys, and the leather tawse-whip is an entirely
different thing, and the reader may be interested to know that this oily
black whip is coiled in the massive hand of the master-of-ceremonies and
held in the face of the up-side-down buck, in order that he may sniff it,
and the buck breathes in on the sharp rawhide, and then he is told the
following.

"Every time you sniff some leather in future, boy, you'll remember this day
and the tawsing I'm about to give you!"

Thusly, I did breath upon the raw odour of the thick leather hide as it
coiled and flexed in my face, and I did certainly learn to become
acquainted with its lubricated span.
