Inwardly I moaned, for in the past months I had come to respect and feel an affection for the shrewd, gusty, brawny Tuchuk. |
10 |
| 11 | 131 |
I had rather come to admire her. |
10 |
| 11 | 141 |
"Come along," she said, kindly. |
10 |
| 11 | 163 |
"Please," said Elizabeth, "come away". |
10 |
| 12 | 12 |
Yet I was hesitant to make the strike of a thief at the wagon of Kutaituchik—for the Tuchuks, in their bluff way, had made me welcome, and I had come to care for some of them, particularly the gruff, chuckling, wily Kamchak, whose wagon I shared. |
10 |
| 12 | 133 |
"Here come the slaves," said Kamchak. |
10 |
| 12 | 175 |
"Come here, Little Aphris," said Kamchak. |
10 |
| 12 | 189 |
"Come here," commanded Kamchak, and Aphris ran lightly to him, timidly. |
10 |
| 12 | 201 |
"No," said Elizabeth, "I have decided to come". |
10 |
| 12 | 205 |
"Come along". |

Among Gorean musicians, incidentally, czehar players have the most prestige; there was only one in this group, I noted, and he was their leader; next follow the flutists and then the players of the kalika; the players of the drums come next; and the farthest fellow down the list is the man who keeps... |
10 |
| 13 | 114 |
"Come along," he said. |
10 |
| 13 | 129 |
After seeing Kutaituchik and the others, Kamchak stopped by an Iron Master's wagon, and, to my irritation, arranged for the fellow to come by the wagon that very night. |
10 |
| 14 | 29 |
In no more than a few Gorean Ihn we had come to the interior edge of the herds. |
10 |

"Why else," asked he, "would you have come to the Wagon Peoples?" I did not respond. |
10 |
| 15 | 42 |
Was it not for this purpose that I had come to the Wagon Peoples? I cursed the fact that I had waited so long—even to the time of the Omen Taking—for thereby had I lost the opportunity to try for the sphere myself in the wagon of Kutaituchik. |
10 |
| 15 | 77 |
But the Iron Master did not come that night, or the next, or the next. |
10 |
| 15 | 80 |
"They will not run away—let them wait like she-sleen in their cage—not knowing on which day the iron will come". |
10 |

I told myself it might be better, even, to come to the House of Saphrar late, rather than possibly before the twentieth hour. |

On this platform, nestled in the folds of the purple, I saw the object of my quest—what I had come so far to find—that for which I had risked and, apparently, lost my life—the golden sphere. |
10 |
| 16 | 264 |
"But he has come so far and risked so much," said Saphrar kindly. |
10 |
| 16 | 311 |
It would not then have required great intelligence to suspect that I might have come to fetch the egg or eggs of Priest-Kings. |
10 |
| 17 | 70 |
"But do not be impatient—for your turn will come". |
10 |
| 18 | 32 |
Your turn will come!" I stood as still as I could. |
10 |
| 18 | 113 |
"Come back!" I cried. |
10 |
| 19 | 22 |
Undoubtedly tarnsmen, mounted, would come from time to time during the night to the House of Saphrar. |
10 |

"Oh, come now," said Harold. |
10 |
| 20 | 26 |
"Come along," he said, flinging Hereena across his shoulders like a thigh of bosk meat, and starting along the wall. |
10 |
| 20 | 86 |
"That is all well and good," responded Harold, "but can you not impart certain important information relating to the matter in a briefer span?" "Come to the roof!" I cried. |
10 |

"Come here!" cried Harold. |

It was a common name in Ar, whence many of the mercenaries had come. |

I had not returned to the wagon I had shared with him, but had come immediately to the wagon of Kutaituchik, where I had been informed he was to be found. |
10 |

In a few minutes the great pole of the standard had been mounted on the wagon and was descending the hill, leaving on the summit the burned wood and the black ashes that had been the wagon of Kutaituchik, surrendering them now to the wind and the rain, to time and the snows to come, and to the green... |
10 |

"But," said she, "even had I the money to reopen the shop—it would mean only that the men of Saphrar would come again". |
10 |
| 21 | 169 |
I lived in constant fear that the gray man—he with eyes like glass—would come to Turia on tarnback and acquire, before I could act, the golden sphere—for which so much had been risked, for which apparently more than one man had died. |
10 |
| 23 | 8 |
I had little hope that either of these peoples would come to the aid of Tuchuks. |
10 |

But then we could see, forming on the crest of a hill, thousands of Paravaci warriors, apparently held in readiness in case reinforcements should come. |
10 |

Already the bosk were growing uneasy at the smell of death and already the grass about the camp was rustling with the movements of the tiny brown prairie urts, scavengers, come to feed. |
10 |
| 24 | 13 |
I did ask Kamchak why, considering the probabilities that the Kataii and the Kassars would not have come to the aid of the Tuchuks, he had not abandoned Turia and returned with his main forces to the wagons. |
10 |
| 25 | 29 |
"As yet, never," said she, "but he is in the city—and may this very night come to the wagon!" "I do not fear him," I said. |
10 |
| 25 | 186 |
"It certainly took you a long time to come by the wagon". |
10 |
| 25 | 190 |
"Why did you come to the wagon tonight?" she asked. |
10 |

"Why did you come to the wagon tonight?" she asked. |

To almost anyone who would come upon her she might seem but a beautiful barbarian, fit presumably by birth and blood only for the collar of a master. |
10 |
| 26 | 216 |
"If you approach I shall destroy this!" "No harm must come to it," I begged Kamchak. |
10 |
| 26 | 248 |
"We knew that in time someone would come from the Sardar. |
10 |
| 26 | 275 |
"No harm must come to the golden sphere!" I cried. |

He turned in the direction from which the scream had come. |

"The one that the two men who brought the sphere told me might come one day to claim it". |
10 |

"When did they come to the wagons?" I asked. |
10 |
| 26 | 445 |
"But are you not he who is to come from Priest-Kings to claim the egg?" inquired Kamchak. |
10 |
| 26 | 448 |
"I have no way to prove that I come from Priest-Kings," I said. |
10 |
| 26 | 449 |
"Why would you believe me?" "Because," said Kamchak, "I have come to know you". |
10 |
| 26 | 455 |
That taught me that it was indeed probable that you were he chosen by Priest-Kings to come for the egg". |
10 |
| 26 | 465 |
"When you wept," he said, "I knew then that you cared for it, and for Priest-Kings—that you had truly come for the egg and that you wanted it for them—and not for yourself". |
10 |
| 27 | 114 |
"But where," I asked, "did you come by the notion that you are beautiful?" "My master told me," she sniffed, "and my master does not lie—does he?" "Not often," I said, "and particularly not about matters of such importance". |
10 |
| 27 | 140 |
"You gambled," I said, "when you did not surrender Turia—to return to defend the bosk and wagons of the Tuchuks—that the others, the Kataii and Kassars, would come to your aid". |

Some four months ago I, in my swiftest ram-ship, accompanied by my two other ram-ships, and escorted, as well, by five ram-ships of the arsenal, heavy class, had come to the vast, wall-encircled harbors of Telnus, which is the capital city of the Ubarate of Cos. |
10 |
| 13 | 222 |
I recall seeing, crouched against the wall of a building near the postern gate of the palace of Lurius, a coarse-robed figure, foolishly come too early to sell his vegetables, suls and tur-pah, near the palace. |
10 |
| 13 | 469 |
They come with us. |
10 |
| 13 | 496 |
"And when we have come to Port Kar, what then?" asked Tab. |
10 |
| 14 | 105 |
For all they knew I might be astonished at the force on which I had come. |
10 |
| 14 | 131 |
The Dorna had now come about and, at half beat, was moving southeast, directly away from the pursuing ships. |
10 |
| 14 | 172 |
"Come about," I said, "and maximum beat". |
10 |
| 14 | 189 |
We saw the ship ahead of us trying to come about, but, before she could make four points of the Gorean compass, our ram struck the corner of her stern, skidding through and freeing itself, the ships, the Dorna's port oars inboard, grating together, and then the Dorna was clear, free, and we were dri... |
10 |
| 14 | 191 |
It, too, began to come about, and we caught her amidships, the ram thrusting through the heavy planking like kindling, then stopped by the shield, like a spread tarn's crest, and we chopped our way back and free, and then knifed past her stern toward the next two ships. |
10 |
| 14 | 206 |
In another four or five Ehn I expected he would regard his lead as sufficient to permit him the time to safely come about and engage. |
10 |
| 14 | 210 |
When I saw the tarn ship ahead, its captain doubtless confident of his speeds and distances, lift her oars, preparing to come about, I called to the oar-master, "Now!" Without the loss of a stroke he, at the center of the rowing frame, began to call maximum beat, "Stroke! Stroke! Stroke!" The Dorna,... |
10 |
| 14 | 243 |
After a quarter of an Ahn, in the distance, I could see her, at last, come about. |
10 |
| 14 | 425 |
Indeed, at a word, they must come to one's arms, must press their body to yours. |
10 |
| 14 | 476 |
Seventeen soon began to move around the fleet, or come about, to face the approaching twelve vessels. |
10 |
| 14 | 477 |
Men sat ready at the oars of the Dorna, should I come aboard her. |
10 |
| 14 | 484 |
"Do you wager," I asked him, "that they come within two pasangs?" "They will fight!" he said. |
10 |

I was Bosk, a simple, but shrewd man, who had come from the marshes to startle Port Kar and dazzle and shake the cities of Gor with my cunning and my blade, and now my power and my wealth. |
10 |

"Come along, Girl," said he to her. |
10 |
| 15 | 211 |
"The slave boy, Fish," I said to the kitchen master, "has come unbidden into my presence and he has not, in my opinion, shown sufficient respect for the master of my kitchen". |
10 |
| 15 | 539 |
"Come here!" I called. |
10 |
| 15 | 709 |
"Have you come to scrub the tiles?" I asked, sternly. |
10 |
| 15 | 740 |
"Why have you come here at this time?" I asked. |
10 |
| 15 | 795 |
"Come here," I said. |
10 |
| 15 | 821 |
"You have come to torment me in my grief," I told her. |
10 |
| 15 | 852 |
And then the words that I spoke did not seem to come from me but from something within me that was deeper than the self I knew. |
10 |
| 15 | 853 |
Not since I had knelt bound before Ho-Hak on the rence island had such words come from me, so unbidden, so tortured. |
10 |

I wondered again how she had come by an armlet of gold. |
10 |
| 16 | 238 |
The alarm had come in the night, and, at night, in a Gorean household, it is common for the slaves to be confined; certainly in my house, as a wise precaution, I kept my slaves well secured; even Midice, when she had snuggled against me in the love furs, when I had finished with her, was always chai... |
10 |
| 16 | 383 |
"They have come to kill us!" he cried. |
10 |
| 17 | 41 |
Each of my fifty sets of attacking tarn ships would be followed, by some half of an Ahn, by another pair of my tarn ships, which, hopefully, would be able to take a number of these come-about ships of Cos and Tyros from the rear. |
10 |
| 17 | 84 |
I hoped that Chenbar might assume that many of the ships which had fled from Port Kar might have come about and decided to join the battle, or he might infer that he had, before he could ascertain the ships involved in the flanking attacks, seriously misjudged our numbers. |
10 |
| 17 | 177 |
Following the fourth wave, its own attack timed to occur half an Ahn after that of the fourth wave, would come the fifth wave, the two small fleets of tarn ships, of forty ships apiece, masts down, who would initiate their pincers attack from the north and the south. |
10 |
| 17 | 179 |
With the reserves would come ten more round ships, wide-beamed lumber ships from the arsenal. |
10 |
| 17 | 197 |
And then I had seen fleet ships, in their fifties, come about to move against what they had taken to be a new wave of round ships, only to be taken off-guard by the rams and shearing blades of ships as swift and terrible as their own. |
10 |
| 18 | 47 |
And those who had fought here would be, in years to come, as comrades and brothers. |
10 |

I supposed that in time to come men might, on this holiday, show their wounds to slaves and wondering children, saying to them, "These I had in Se'Kara". |
10 |

"Why would you come to my holding?" I asked. |
10 |

He had come to me much more swiftly than I had expected. |
10 |
| 18 | 119 |
"You may not come with me," I told him. |
10 |
| 18 | 162 |
Then we had come to my holding and now we stood, together, side by side, in the apparently deserted, almost darkened great hall of my holding. |
10 |
| 18 | 165 |
We had encountered no one in the passageways, or the rooms into which we had come, making our way to the great hall. |
10 |
| 18 | 228 |
His men backed away, fighting, and we, and those others who had come to help us, pressed them back even as they retreated through the great door to the high-roofed hall. |
10 |
| 18 | 289 |
"Why have you come to defend my keep, and my holding?" I asked Samos. |
10 |
| 18 | 297 |
We could, from the ramparts, look out over the marsh, stretching far beyond, that vast, beautiful delta of the great Vosk, through which I had come, so long ago. |
10 |
| 18 | 313 |
Why had he come to defend my holding? Was he so irrational, so mad, so contemptuous of the value of his life? He did not belong here. |
10 |
| 18 | 323 |
I had come back. |
10 |

"When they come," she asked, "they will not kill Sandra, will they?" "I do not think so," I said. |
10 |
| 18 | 463 |
"You know," I said, "the keep will be overrun and most of us, the men, at least, will be slain?" "The fleet will come," she said. |
10 |
| 18 | 472 |
"The men will come with weapons," I said. |
10 |
| 18 | 552 |
Samos survived, and I, and the boy, Fish, and the three girls, and, beyond these, other than the dancer, Sandra, who had remained below, only five men, three who had come to my holding with Samos, and two of my own, one a simple mercenary, one who had once been a slave. |
10 |

"When they come again," I said, "hide below. |
