It's good that this slave's face is buried in the couch. That's because Delilah really isn't in the mood to listen to his screams. No, all she really wants to do is start her day off with a whipping. It's almost therapeutic sometimes, the act of whipping a man, where his suffering has a calming effect on her. Much better, now with the slave's pain out of the way she can go enjoy her morning coffee.
