In Ancient Rome, a lowly Roman footslave washes his pretty mistress's feet, under the watchful eye of her husband!
 |
| This is a slave under pressure... |
 |
| ...the pressure of doing a good job in gently washing his pretty mistress's feet in front of her husband! |
 |
| The slave knows only too well the master-sir shan't hesitate to beat him if he fails to please his pretty wife! |
 |
| And the master-sir himself has very high standards (as the slave knows from having to wash his master's own feet on many occasions!) |
 |
| Gingerly, and respectfully, the slave soaps his mistress's soft, bare feet in the water |
 |
| Note the blood stains on his tunic - a reminder to him of previous beatings, should he need any reminding! |
 |
| It was, presumably, the master-sir who administered those beatings? |
 |
| I mean, he looks like a man who doesn't suffer slaves gladly! |
 |
| Whereas the pretty mistress-madam looks so sweet and innocent! |
 |
| I'll wager she has never wielded a whip across a slave's back? |
 |
| Then again, you should never judge a book by its cover! |
 |
| Whoever administers the punishment beatings, this slave would do well to be pleasing to his masters! |
