Among the Persians the usual mode Of
punishment is the bastinado, from which
men of the highest rank are not exempt.
Ii is inflicted with very great severity,
frequently so as to render the sufferer
almost cripple for life. The victim is
thrown upon his face, each foot is passed
through loop of strong cord attached
TO pole, which is raised horizontally by
men, who, twisting it round, tighten the
ropes and render the feet immovablc.
Two eXecutioncrs then strike the sole al
ternately with switches of the pomegran-
lie tree we'll stepped i'll water to render
them supple. y store of these switches
is generally ready for use in the pond
which adjoins the courtyards of the
houses of the great. The punishment
frequently lasts for an hour or until the
unfortunate victim faints from pain
