Book 1. (7 results) Tarnsman of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
2	4	I seemed to be lying on some hard, flat object, perhaps a table, in a circular room with a low ceiling some seven feet high.	10
2	17	Aside from these things and two stone blocks, perhaps chairs, and a mat on one side, the room was bare; the walls and ceiling and floor were smooth as marble, and a classic white.	10
4	130	It was in the widest of cylinders, and the ceiling was at least six times the height of the normal living level.	10
4	131	The ceiling was lit as if by stars, and the walls were of five colors, applied laterally, beginning from the bottom—white, blue, yellow, green, and red, caste colors.	10
18	108	The first time I hauled on the one-strap, the bird would not move; the second time he lifted into flight, almost immediately scraping the ceiling of the tunnel with his wings, protesting shrilly.	10
18	109	My helmet protected me as my head was roughly dragged against the granite of the ceiling.	10
18	110	Then, to my pleasure, instead of alighting, the tarn dropped a few feet down from the ceiling and began to streak through the tunnel, the energy bulbs flashing past me to form in my wake a gleaming chain of light.	10

1	173	I found myself in the bleak white hallway outside his apartment, blinking at the exposed bulb in the ceiling.	10
10	93	In certain of the walls chains were fixed, and here and there, other chains dangled from the ceiling.	10
12	4	The place was lit by a small, foul tharlarion-oil lamp set in the wall near the ceiling.	10
17	8	There were pools of water here and there on the floor; the walls were damp; water in certain places dripped from the ceiling.	10
17	85	I found myself gazing at the large circular hole in the ceiling of the narrow cell.	10
18	147	The water was perhaps two feet high in the cell, pressing upward toward the low ceiling, when I followed Andreas into the tunnel.	10

Book 3. (41 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
15	15	Looking up I saw Misk, disdaining the rope, bend himself backwards through the aperture in the ceiling and, step by dainty step, walk across the ceiling upside down and then back himself nimbly down the side of the wall.	10
21	56	While the creatures remaining on the floor continued their mournful paean, their fellow creatures on the walls and ceiling, still carrying their torches, and scattering wild shadows of their own bodies and those of swollen Priest-Kings against the ceiling, began to fill their golden vessels from the...	10
22	5	When I reached the ceiling I saw, to my relief, that further bars projected downwards from the ceiling and that the bottom of each was bent outwards in a flat, horizontal projection that would afford me a place to put my feet.	10
29	50	The second craft shot wildly toward the ceiling of the complex and shattered on the stone ceiling, falling back to the ground in a shower of wreckage.	10
8	41	Then my eye saw, directly in the center of the ceiling, another energy bulb, like those in the walls, only the bulb was not lit.	10
9	78	I looked about the room, at the chests against the wall dim in the reduced light of the energy bulbs, at the walls, at the shattered device in the ceiling, at the broken sensors, at the great, empty portal that led into the passageway beyond.	10
14	94	Actually the walls, ceiling and floor were covered with what, to a Priest-King, were excruciatingly beautiful scent-patterns.	10
15	2	From a ring on the underside of the floor, the ceiling of the chamber, there dangled a knotted rope.	10
20	48	The only object in the room other than ourselves was a heavy, globelike contrivance, high over our heads, attached to a set of jointed extensions fastened in the ceiling of the chamber.	10
20	50	Numerous wires extended from the globe along the metal extensions and into a panel in the ceiling.	10
20	59	They placed the disk directly under the globelike object in the ceiling.	10
20	119	The attendant at the wall panel then pressed a button and the entire apparatus raised on its extension arms to the ceiling.	10
21	14	Clinging to the ceiling of the chamber were numerous dark, distended shapes, apparently Priest-Kings but with abdomens swollen grotesquely.	10
21	19	There was a rustling among the dark, distended shapes that clung to the ceiling.	10
21	53	I could now see the Priest-Kings clearly where they clung upside down to the ceiling, their great swollen abdomens almost dwarfing their thoraxes and heads.	10
21	54	Then to my amazement, one by one, the strange creatures, disdaining the bars near the door began simply to pad up the almost vertical walls to the Priest-Kings and then, astonishingly, began to walk upside down on the ceiling.	10
21	59	The strange procession to and fro up the walls and across the ceiling to Priest-Kings and back down to the floor continued for more than an hour, during which time the Muls who stood below, some of them having returned with a full vessel, never ceased to chant their mournful paean.	10
21	64	When not actively engaged in gathering Gur their round dark eyes were lifted like dark curves to the Priest-Kings who clung to the ceiling far over their heads.	10
21	65	At last I saw one Priest-King move from the ceiling and climb backwards down the wall.	10
21	70	In the light of the last torches which left the chamber I could see that there remained one Priest-King who, though emptied of Gur, still clung to the ceiling.	10
21	71	A heavy chain, fastened to a ring in the ceiling, led to a thick metal band which was locked about his narrow trunk between the thorax and the abdomen.	10
22	8	Suddenly one of the extensions, the fourth I believe, slipped with a grating sound from the ceiling and I leaped wildly for the next bar, just managing to catch it in my fall.	10
22	12	Then the bar to which I clung moved an inch from the ceiling.	10
22	16	I swung forward and back on the bar and felt it loosen almost entirely in the ceiling but on the next forward swing I released it and seized the next bar.	10
22	80	Then, clutching me securely, he scampered away across the ceiling and backed down the wall.	10
25	53	In the vicinity of the portal itself I remembered, when I had had the Mul-Torch, seeing a ventilation shaft some twenty or thirty yards inside the passage and fixed in the ceiling of the passage some nine feet from the floor.	10
25	65	Then I could no longer release the grille had I wanted to and I hung there agonized, a prisoner of the charges flashing through my body and the bolts wrenched loose from the ceiling, and I fell again to the floor, the grille clattering beside me, my fingers still hooked in its mesh.	10
27	67	Its ceiling was only perhaps a hundred feet high but its length and width were considerable and it was filled with golden Priest-Kings, garlanded in green and wearing about their necks that shining, jangling circle of tiny, silverish tools.	10
27	363	And from a thousand translators rang the message she cried out over those golden heads to the blank stone ceiling and walls of her chamber and I shall never forget it as it was in all the sorrow and the joy of her trembling dying magnificence; I and all could read it in the attitude of her body, the...	10
28	18	And as I waited on the still disk in the darkness, my weapon ready, I suddenly saw far down the tunnel the sudden blue flash of an opened Mul-Torch and then its steady blaze, and then I saw another flash and blaze and another and to my amazement it seemed that these fires hung from the very ceiling ...	10
28	19	It was the carriers of Gur but far from the Gur Chamber and I watched with something of awe as the long procession of humanoid creatures, two abreast, marched along the ceiling of the tunnel until they stopped above me.	10
28	78	And her fears were not lessened as she looked beyond me to see the creatures, undoubtedly hideous to her eyes, who clung spiderlike to the ceiling of the Vivarium chamber with their glowing Mul-Torches.	10
29	62	The ceiling of the complex leapt away from above me and I found myself in the very center of the six ships, surrounded on the four sides, and above and below.	10
29	125	The ship was now on its back and I was standing inside on its ceiling and then the ship righted itself and I found the silver tube again.	10
29	150	Feeling what seemed to be a blank area of the ceiling of the control area I fired a blast upward, using the simple expedient of the tube to open a hole in the craft through which light might enter.	10
30	43	It seemed the ceiling began to rotate.	10
31	164	More stones fell from the ceiling of the chamber now, clattering and bouncing off the surface of the blue, scarred seething dome.	10
32	41	A great opening, from the sides of which stones still fell, had appeared in the ceiling of the Nest complex, opening the thick, numerous strata above it until at last through that rupture could be seen the beautiful calm sky of the world above.	10
32	76	I saw that the last ship was preparing to take flight through the hole torn above in the ceiling of the complex.	10
32	90	Some more tons of stone fell from the hole torn in the ceiling, raining down on the buildings beneath, breaking through the roofs, shattering to the streets.	10
32	197	With uncanny speed it seemed we almost floated to a tunnel entrance and I looked behind us and saw the ceiling descending with incredible softness, almost like a snowfall of stones.	10

17	3	The pool is indoors—in a spacious chamber in the House of Saphrar—with a domed ceiling of some eighty feet in height.	10
17	8	The light in the room came, interestingly, from behind a translucent blue ceiling, probably being furnished by energy bulbs.	10
17	10	Around the edge of the pool there were eight large columns, fashioned and painted as though the trunks of trees, one standing at each of the eight cardinal points of the Gorean compass; from these, stretching often across the pool, were vines, so many that the ceiling could be seen only as a patchwo...	10
18	74	Standing now on the high, humped dried thing—lofty on that protective coating—I leaped easily up and seized one of the low hanging vines and climbed rapidly toward the blue ceiling of the chamber.	10
18	104	Together we ran about the perimeter of the pool until we came to a tangle of vines depending from the ceiling, up which we climbed, broke through the blue substance, and cast wildly about for an avenue of escape.	10
18	105	There would be such, for the ceiling had been unbroken by a door or panel, and there must surely be some provision for the rearrangement and replacement of energy bulbs.	10
19	83	The light in the room was furnished by a single tharlarion-oil lamp which hung from the ceiling.	10
24	68	After I had finished the bosk meat I lay back on the floor, a cushion beneath my head, and stared at the ceiling.	10

4	13	It was a large room, some seventy feet square and with a ceiling of some fifty feet in height.	10
9	69	Beyond the glass I looked into what seemed to be a Pleasure Garden, lit by energy bulbs radiant in its lofty ceiling.	10
11	41	They reached to the ceiling of the room.	10
11	44	Hanging from the ceiling, worked from a windlass, dangled a chain, attached to which was a pair of slave bracelets.	10
13	122	I kissed her, and looked again to the ceiling.	10
14	141	But this time, in that room rich with hangings, with lamps set behind ornate mesh in the ceiling, there was a prisoner.	10
14	152	The girl spun about and threw her head back, staring wildly at the ceiling, throwing the chain back over her head.	10
17	542	But then my sword was out of the sheath and delicately, turning each bone with the tip of the blade, I placed the side marked with the highest number on each of the bones facing the ceiling.	10
18	327	I could see the bread ovens in one wall; the long fire pit over which could be put cooking racks, the mountings for spits and kettle hooks; the fire pit was mostly black now, but, here and there, I could see a few broken sticks of glowing charcoal; aside from this, the light in the room came from on...	10
19	115	Slaves on catwalks opened metal, shuttered vents in the ceiling, which is domed, and in the curved walls; I caught a breath of the cool air; outside I could see stars in the black Gorean sky; I could not see any of her moons.	10

2	99	It touched the ceiling.	10
2	100	I had not realized the ceiling was that low.	10
