      “If someone be so bold and pay no heed to what is in the law, let him be bound to the pillory (kyphōn) next to the town hall for 20 days, doused in honey, naked, and in milk, so that he may be dinner for bees and flies. And when the time has passed, that he be pushed off a cliff, wrapping him in a woman’s robe.”
