Quotes from the Books
At his entrance Susan put the palms of her hands on the
floor and lowered her head to the tiles, assuming a position of slave
obeisance common with her in the presence of her master. I wondered if
Ligurious's slave master required this position of all of his women. I
supposed so.

"Kajira of Gor" (page 157)
Swiftly we assumed a common form of slave obeisance,
kneeling, the palms of our hands on the ground, our heads to the ground.
Many masters, though it tends to be rather associated usually with given
cities, require this position of their girls, usually when they first
enter his presence or find themselves, as in a room which he has entered,
in his presence. She is then, usually, when given permission, permitted to
lift her head, but is to remain kneeling before him, beautifully, in a
standard position, her knees closed if she is a house or tower slave, her
knees open if she was the sort of slave I was, whatever sort of slave that
was supposed to be.
"Dancer of Gor" (page 115)
"You may do obeisance, my dear," said
Kliomenes.
The girl rose to her feet and went to Kliomenes. She knelt before him, on
the dais, and put her head down. Gently, softly, she licked and kissed his
feet. She then rose again to her feet, backed away, and then, on the
tiles, again knelt. She put the palms of her hands upon the tiles, and
lowered her head to the tiles. Then she straightened up, her back
straight, assuming the position of a pleasure slave, though keeping her
head bowed, deferentially.
"Rogue of Gor" (page 299)
"There are many ways to perform obeisance. "I
said.
"I am a free woman," she said, " I know none of them."
"I shall instruct you briefly in three," I said. " First
kneel before me , back on your heels, yes, with your knees wide, wider,
your hands on your thighs, your back straight, your breasts out, good,
your belly in, good, and now lower your head in deference, in
submission."
"Now that," I said, " may not be exactly a form of
obeisance, for authorities do not all agree, but for our purposes we shall
count it as one. It is, at any rate, a beautiful position, and it is,
certainly, a common position of slave submission."
"Now" I said, " and this is clearly a form of obeisance,
bend forward and put your head to the mat, the palms of your hands on the
mat. Good. Now lift your head little and come forward, substantially
keeping the position. Forward a little more."
"But then my face will be at your feet," she said, "My lips
will be over them!"
"Yes," I said, "Good, now, put your head down and lick and
kiss my feet."
"I am a free Woman!" she said.
"You are a woman," I said," now softly lingeringly, and
lovingly, Good."
"I am not a slave," she said.
"All women are slaves, "I said " Imagine what this would be
like if you were truly a collared slave."
She gasped.
"Now" I said, "for a third form of obeisance. You may belly
to me."
"I do not understand," she whispered.
"There are various forms of bellying, " I said, and bellying may
be suitably and pleasingly combined with other forms of floor movements,
approaching the Master on all fours, turning to your sides and back,
writhing before him, and so on. We will take a very simple variation,
suitable for an ignorant free female who has not yet even begun to
discover the depths of her sexuality."
She looked up at me.
"On your belly," I said. She backed off a bit , and went to her
belly. her hair was before her face, as she now on her belly before me
looked up at me.
"Now inch forward," I said, " remaining low on your belly,
and when you reach my feet, once again, as before, lifting your head a
little, tenderly and humbly, and beautifully, as though you were a slave,
lick and kiss them. Good. Good.
Now take my foot and place it gently on your head. Very good. Now place it
again on the Mat, and kiss it again. Good. You may now belly back a
little, humbly. I have not yet given you permission to rise of
course."
