The Collar of Torment, studded with spikes!

Apparently used domestically in the case of the Wayward Wife......hmmm there's a thought. wink

Quote:
‘Eleventh, is an ill favoured old instrument, called the collar of torment, which we are told was formerly put about the necks of such women as either proved false to their husbands beds, or took too great a freedom with their tongues. But long this collar has aside been cast. Sure! They are now less noisy, and more chaste
