Schandflöte [de]
für schlechte Musikanten. In den Ring kam
der Hals. Die Finger wurden unter das
Eisen gesteckt, anschiließend wurde zuge-
dreht. Es sah dann so aus, als ob der Musi-
kant Flöte spielen würde.

Shame Flute [en]
This was used for shaming bad musicians.
The neck of the musician was forded through
the upper round hole and the fingers were
placed under the iron, which shows the
many finger holes. This gave the impression
that the musician was playing the flute.
汚名の笛 [ja]
下手くそな楽手用。首に輪をかけられ
指は鉄筒の下部に置いて閉じ込められた。
一見まるで楽手が楽しく笛をふいているか
の様にみえた。
