They had different standards in them there days. Two young maids, who work for the squire, are caught stealing and eating apples in the Beadle’s garden by the squire. He sends them dwelling-place immediately but it is too late, The Beadle has spotted them. Soon after, the plump beadle arrives at the squire’s mansion demanding to birch the babes. The squire supplies him with a birch, and the Beadle waddles up to their rooms to give them a wonderful birching. When he is gone, the squire is furious, having been harshly embarrassed by the activity of his maids. He produces a cane and calls them down one by one for a thorough caning, not being overly impressed by the birching that the Beadle has handed out.
