Tomas has returned to college from the summer holidays, he is two hours late because the bus was delayed, but to the master this is not a reasonable excuse. For the first hour of lateness it corresponds to a first punitive session with Tom receiving a vigorous and painful spanking, first with a wooden bath brush and then by hand. Then for the second hour of lateness it corresponds to a second punitive session with Tom first receiving the wooden bath brush while over the master's knee, followed at the turn of a card by a good hand spanking.
