Description:
In the second episode (following on from panel 16), the man has hidden
all his money, including what he borrowed from the Jew, in a hollow staff.
When summoned to repay the loan, he asks the Jew to hold his staff for
a moment, while he swears a solemn oath to the court that he has returned
the money, plus much more besides. He then departs with his staff, leaving
the Jew empty handed (continued in
panel 19)
