The maid shall entertain the high lords by pretending to be a “birdie”. She is closed up in a cage and must sing and chirp, then they stick up a plumage on her and degrade her to be a hen. After varied penalizations she is put in the pillory and shall there lay three eggs and hatch them out. A strong castigation helps, and so the fragile hen tries to please her authority.
