Vivum Excoriari

Set on display for the public to see so they will

Know the fate of those who would do wrong relieved

From the torture the wretched body encaged and hung

Alive in chains lack of food and water enhancing the

Weakened state forced to stand by a neck shackle or

Suffocate blistered and burnt from the sun infected

Weeping wound insects have found and feed upon

The unprotected body disease has filled to weak to stand

Slowly suffocates, body remains displayed while birds

Begin removing the flesh bones become brittle from the

Hrash elements tar soaked clothing remains on the body

Still swaying encaged for one thousand days then removed

And given to the family, the cage prepared for the next guest

Hoisted up awaiting a slow death crowds gather to witness

The severely beaten and unwilling participant
