  <dc:title>The Fifth Clause</dc:title>
  <dc:description>A man confronts his servant.  Both stand in profile, with their hands on their hips.  The master, standing on the right and wearing a bob wig and top boots, addresses the servant:
"And now Mr Old, and faithful servant - if I was to kick you out of the house dont you think I shoud [sic] be doing justice to myself and the country at large."
The servant, on the right, is wearing a broad-brimmed hat and buckled shoes.  He replies:
"You should recollect what is due to an old and faithful servant.  You say I have made free with your beer - I own I have frequently lent my neighbour Giles the key of your cellar and have often drunk ale with him, but as he had ale of his own at the time, I cannot positively say whether I drank your ale or not - and as to that charge of robbing the Hen roost - I dont choose to make any reply to that, as by the fifth clause I am not bound to incriminate myself."
