But meanwhile, the reader might well enquire, what of Swift Nick, what has happened to the Dandy Highwayman? We'd last seen him imprisoned and awaiting his day of judgement in court. Well, it can now be revealed that, following his trial, with his wrists shackled behind him, he was roughly hauled by two court-attendants from his holding cell, and taken in for a private audience with the presiding magistrate, Squire Fleshpole. Fleshpole sits behind a polished desk upon which the legal-papers are spread, busying himself with documents, deliberately ignoring the intrusion. Nick nervously stands to attention before him, unsure what to expect, noting the black cap casually resting on the desk, signifying execution. Surely it won't come to that? The men stand, lit by the flickering light of a blazing log-fire, until the magistrate finally glances up. 'Please remove the inappropriate prison garb, I find its crudity offensive' he says with an irritable gesture of his pen.
The attendants rip Nick's jerkin away brusquely, then pull the coarse baggy pants down and off in one swift move, so that he's left standing there naked. His forceful disrobing leaving his large cock swaying.
'Ha! Not so cocky now are you Mr Highwayman, without the mask and pistols that are the tools of your unlawful trade' demands the gloating Squire.
'You see before you the only weaponry I need, Sir' retorts Nick, 'and I can be as cocky as circumstances dictate.'
Thoughtfully Squire Fleshpole pushes his chair back with a harsh grating sound, and slouches to his feet. He crabs awkwardly around the desk with swaggering deliberation, stroking his chin contemplatively, to face the naked Highwayman. There's a strange moment of silence. Then he reaches down and seizes Swift Nick by the balls, squeezing them until they stand out redly straining in his fist. 'You were found guilty of heinous crimes against the State and the people. Yet I have the power, by the authority invested in my office, to offer you a choice. You can be despatched to the penal colony where hard labour and the abuse no doubt to be inflicted by the sexual lusts of the other prisoners will most certainly soon take its toll upon this fine young body. How does that prospect appeal to you...?' he squeezes the sensitive testicles to emphasise his point. Nick's buttocks clench in pained response, his muscles cording uselessly against the chafing restriction of his shackles. 'Or I can sentence you to a corrective incarceration with the good Friars of the St Phallus Monastery for the rehabilitation of your soul. I trust you would choose the latter fate?'
Yes, the monks. He's heard of them. Everyone has. In fact there's a bottle of the highly-esteemed St Phallus wine, half drained, on the magistrates desk. Despite the discomfort caused by the magistrates grip, unable to believe his luck, Swift Nick forces a smile at the unexpected twist of fate. 'Yes sir, I would make such a choice, if such a choice were offered to me. I pray my poor sinner's soul is not beyond redemption, and that thanks to the monk's ministrations I can be returned to society as a useful and law-abiding citizen.'
'And naturally you'd feel the need to express your gratitude for my leniency?'
'In whatever way I could, kind Sir.' His keen incisive face is partially flushed, but there's still the devilish raffishness there.
Fleshpole releases Nick's aching scrotum and steps back, leaning up against the desk while unbuttoning his flies with slow one-by-one deliberation. Pushing his trousers down to his knees revealing a large gnarled penis. Slight pressure on Nick's shoulders from the two attendants forces him down onto his knees, facing the stirring monster. He can sense its foul aroma.
