Notes
She removes her own clothes and sets them aside, folded. Given by an owner, and by a physician or a buyer with his leave.
By long tradition it is also the first command given to a newly claimed slave, before anything else and before any explanation. That is custom rather than the meaning of the word. It is not principally about the body. It establishes that the person now has no possessions, including what they are wearing, and that instructions are followed rather than discussed. It is also where the thing stops being an idea. A person who chose this has agreed to it in a registry, politely, with paperwork, and none of that is the experience of it.
