The How 2 June to ET SALONE ! At ths , word up starts the music of Strauss , and the daughter of Herodias , naked - limbed , writhes and pos . tures before us . Her flesh gleams with dusky light under her gleaming jewels . The eyes of her pulsing breasts scorch us , her hot red bursting lips suck out our soul .

Wilder and wilder --the flesh quivers , clutches , and burns . th God ! we reach out to touch , to hold , to crush it And the music falters and sinks light fades , the scene changes , we are looking at a motionless , shadowy figure holding tightly before it a ghastly , dripping head .
