But in the torturing-chamber the senate of Nordlingen got out of the frying-pan into the fire. For when the thumb- screws were applied Jorg Muckenhuber persisted in piping his old song, and when the effect was heightened by forcing him into the Spanish boots, he proceeded at once to add to his original offence by confessing a list of robberies, each of which alone would have brought him to the gallows. The inquisitor had also a ride upon the sharp-edged ass upon his programme, but fearing lest ...the invincible Jorg should add two or three cases of arson into the bargain he did not press the point, and the triumphant rogue was conducted back into his dungeon, while the senate was writhing in an agony of impotent rage. To the more sagacious it became more and m-ore evident that Jorg Muckenhuber was making game of the town authorities, but at the same time a joke of such ghastly grimness was unprecedented. Then too, no one could hit upon a possible motive why the churlish fellow should sub- ject his neck to the rope and his limbs to the rack with an amount of courage and power of will that was worthy of a better cause.
