The circle of chain tightened, and Ost scratched helplessly at it with his fingers, his eyes bulging. |
9 |
| 17 | 92 |
The slaves tensed, their eyes fixed on the trough. |
9 |
| 17 | 95 |
There was pleasure in the eyes of the Whip Slave as he enjoyed the tormenting moment of suspense which his uplifted whip inflicted on the ragged, hungry slaves. |
9 |
| 17 | 101 |
But most managed to stand upright, catching their balance, and, almost as one man, that wretched degraded huddle of slaves turned its frightened, empty eyes upon me. |
9 |
| 17 | 125 |
In fury, his eyes darting back and forth like those of an urt, he bit into the bread and gulped it down. |
9 |
| 18 | 29 |
His eyes were wet with amusement and he slapped his thigh. |
9 |
| 18 | 164 |
As soon as I had caught my breath, I shook the sopping hair from my eyes. |
9 |
| 19 | 8 |
Those blue eyes like steel looked about the unyielding faces of the chained slaves. |
9 |
| 19 | 105 |
I saw that those eyes, usually like blue steel, seemed softer than I remembered them. |
9 |
| 19 | 135 |
Andreas of the Caste of Poets stood in torment before me, agony in his eyes. |
9 |
| 20 | 94 |
The bird's eyes, perhaps for the first time in his life, were filled with terror, blind uncomprehending terror. |
9 |
| 20 | 105 |
But each time we attained a certain altitude, the eyes of the tarn would seem to lose their focus, and the unerring balance and coordination of the sable monster would be disrupted. |
9 |
| 20 | 111 |
I thought those great eyes looked at me reproachfully. |
9 |
| 21 | 23 |
Her eyes were blue. |
9 |
| 21 | 52 |
I wondered why those piteous eyes looked upon me with such fear. |
9 |
| 21 | 112 |
There was terror in her blue eyes. |
9 |
| 21 | 122 |
She closed her eyes and tensed herself for the sudden, inevitable, searing flash of pain. |
9 |
| 21 | 125 |
The terror-filled eyes of the girl opened, regarded me questioningly. |
9 |
| 21 | 158 |
"Ah!" said Targo, and his tiny eyes gleamed. |
9 |
| 21 | 177 |
Targo's eyes darted to the scabbard and moved from one emerald to the other. |
9 |
| 21 | 186 |
He hurled the bucket of cold water, from the melted snow in the Sardar, on the chained girl, who, sputtering and shivering, opened her eyes. |
9 |
| 21 | 196 |
The girl fixed her eyes on Targo. |
9 |
| 21 | 226 |
As I passed each she boldly raised her eyes to mine and said, "Buy Me, Master". |
9 |
| 21 | 231 |
And as I paused before each beauty in that chain and met her eyes and heard her words, "Buy Me, Master," I asked myself why I should not buy her, why I should not free her instead of the other girl. |
9 |
| 21 | 247 |
Then, strangely, the girl's head lifted and she looked into my eyes. |
9 |
| 21 | 252 |
I looked upon her, and saw that she was indeed beautiful, but mostly I saw that her eyes pleaded with mine. |
9 |
| 22 | 20 |
"I who was Tatrix of Tharna," she said, her eyes downcast, "did not wish to live as a slave". |
9 |
| 22 | 29 |
"Surely you wish to exact your vengeance? Have you forgotten it was I who put you in a yoke, who whipped you, who condemned you to the Amusements, who would have given you to the tarn? That it was I who betrayed you and sent you to the Mines of Tharna?" "No," I said, my eyes hard. |
9 |
| 22 | 53 |
Her blue eyes seemed filled with wonder, and then they glistened with tears. |
9 |
| 22 | 61 |
She stood within my arms, her tear-filled eyes lifted to mine. |
9 |
| 22 | 88 |
Her eyes were filled with tears, but angry. |
9 |
| 22 | 108 |
Her eyes sought me out. |
9 |
| 22 | 113 |
"And in his city," said the girl, her eyes bright, "he put bells upon my ankles and dressed me in dancing silk. |
9 |
| 22 | 163 |
When she rose from the rug to follow him, she was, in his eyes and hers, a slave. |
9 |
| 22 | 227 |
Humbly she held the cords up for me to accept, her eyes bright, entreating, raised to mine. |
9 |
| 23 | 47 |
She pulled away from me, her eyes clouding with tears. |
9 |
| 23 | 49 |
She looked up at me, her eyes wet with tears. |
9 |
| 23 | 64 |
Holding her head in my hands I looked into her eyes. |
9 |
| 23 | 66 |
I wiped the tears from her eyes. |
9 |
| 23 | 84 |
Those round blazing eyes regarded me, those great wings lifted and shook, his beak was lifted to the sky and he screamed the shrill cry of the tarn. |
9 |
| 23 | 106 |
It was said the rebellion in the city was led by a short, powerful man with blue eyes and short-cropped hair, formerly of the Caste of Metal Workers. |
9 |
| 23 | 134 |
As he felt the wind on the walls reach his head he opened his grayish blue eyes. |
9 |
| 23 | 143 |
His eyes looked from one of us to the other. |
9 |
| 23 | 155 |
The eyes of the warrior widened as they regarded us. |
9 |
| 23 | 158 |
The guardsman struggled in my arms, and then fell back, shutting his eyes with pain. |
9 |
| 23 | 161 |
The grayish blue eyes slowly opened and gazed at my face for a long time, and gradually recognition transformed the features of the young guardsman. |
9 |
| 23 | 167 |
His grayish blue eyes filled with tears. |
9 |
| 23 | 173 |
The boy closed his eyes and his body relaxed in my arms. |
9 |
| 23 | 174 |
Lara looked at me, her eyes frightened. |
9 |
| 23 | 198 |
On occasion terrified eyes scrutinized us fearfully from behind the shutters of windows. |
9 |
| 23 | 205 |
We could read the sullen defiance, the resolve, the capacity to kill in those eyes, bloodshot with loss of sleep, the desperate carriage of those gray-clad bodies, hungry and vicious with the strain of street fighting. |
9 |
| 23 | 231 |
His great hammer was slung from his belt and his blue eyes glistened with happiness. |
9 |
| 24 | 25 |
Her eyes were stunned but, like a child's, were wide with curiosity. |
9 |
| 24 | 53 |
Lara's eyes dropped. |
9 |
| 24 | 89 |
Then regarding me evenly with those steel-blue eyes he said, "We are always of the same chain". |
9 |
| 24 | 123 |
The sudden noise attracted the attention of the entire room and all eyes turned toward us. |
9 |
| 24 | 158 |
Thorn's eyes were clearer now than I remembered them, and the large body which had been tending to corpulence had, in the stress of the fighting, hardened into muscular vigor. |
9 |
| 24 | 161 |
The now clear, oblique eyes regarded me. |
9 |
| 25 | 62 |
I emerged onto the roof, my eyes half shut against the intense light. |
9 |
| 25 | 88 |
It now had its eyes fixed on the man with the sword, he who had struck this new blow. |
9 |
| 25 | 91 |
I shook the sight from my eyes and turned to the others on the roof. |
9 |
| 25 | 93 |
The impassive silver mask was fastened on me and I sensed that the dark eyes behind it blazed with indescribable hatred. |
9 |
| 26 | 97 |
She looked at me, her eyes filled with tears, yet smiling. |

When she looked again my eyes fixed on hers and we looked into one another's eyes for a long time until her lip trembled and her eyes fell before mine. |

The second girl was tall, fragile and willowy, with slender ankles and large, hurt eyes; she had dark, curling hair that fell about her shoulders and stood out against the white of her garment; she may have been of High Caste; without speaking to her it would be hard to tell; even then it might be d... |

Vika's eyes were a sullen, smoldering, taunting blue; the blue of Lara's eyes had been brighter, as clear and, when not impassioned, as soft as the summer sky over Ko-ro-ba; when impassioned they had burned as fiercely, as beautifully, as helplessly as the walls of a raped city. |
10 |
| 21 | 50 |
Most strange perhaps was the shape and width of the eyes, for they were very large, perhaps three inches in width, and were round and dark and shining, much like the eyes of a nocturnal animal. |
10 |
| 25 | 68 |
I shut my eyes but to no avail against the burning universes that seemed to float and explode before my eyes. |
10 |
| 2 | 11 |
At the gate I was met by one of the Caste of Initiates, a dour, thin-lipped, drawn man with deep sunken eyes, clad in the pure white robes of his caste. |
9 |
| 2 | 30 |
Their blind eyes were fixed on nothing. |
9 |
| 2 | 67 |
The larl's head is broad, sometimes more than two feet across, and shaped roughly like a triangle, giving its skull something of the cast of a viper's save that of course it is furred and the pupils of the eyes like the cat's and unlike the viper's, can range from knifelike slits in the broad daylig... |
9 |
| 3 | 51 |
Small bright eyes twinkled under heavy white eyebrows. |
9 |
| 3 | 60 |
The small eyes regarded me, twinkling. |
9 |
| 3 | 61 |
With a start I noted that the pupils of his eyes were red. |
9 |
| 3 | 68 |
I forgot about his eyes, for it did not seem important at the time, for some reason. |
9 |
| 4 | 59 |
I began to feel all the hatred of all the years that I had nursed against the Priest-Kings now uncontrollably, slowly, violently growing in my body, wild, fierce, those foliating scarlet vines of my fury that now seemed to encircle me, to enfold me, to engulf me, swelling, steaming, now writhing afl... |
9 |
| 4 | 60 |
I lifted the spear and my eyes which must have been terrible in the apertures of my helmet were fixed on the heart of the man who sat upon the throne. |
9 |
| 4 | 75 |
I shook my head to drive out the scarlet stars that seemed to race before my eyes. |
9 |
| 4 | 129 |
"Yes," snapped Parp, darting his eyes from right to left, "—at least until it is time for you to be destroyed". |
9 |
| 4 | 132 |
Then it seemed in the impending darkness in the Hall of Priest-Kings as he looked down on me that the pupils of his eyes for an instant glowed briefly, fiercely, like two tiny fiery disks of molten copper. |
9 |
| 4 | 134 |
His eyes were unlike mine, or those of a human being. |
9 |
| 5 | 17 |
Her eyes were blue, and sullen. |
9 |
| 5 | 48 |
In her eyes there seemed to burn an irritable fury of helpless rage. |
9 |
| 5 | 52 |
A look of angry defiance flashed in her eyes, but she rose to her feet and slowly approached me, and knelt beside the stone platform. |
9 |
| 5 | 58 |
Her eyes seemed to cloud with angry tears. |
9 |
| 5 | 129 |
She looked up into my eyes and shivered. |
9 |
| 5 | 160 |
"That plate," she said, "is kept in the tunnels of the Priest-Kings, but these—" and she shivered and indicated the rounded domes, which were undoubtedly sensors of some type, "are its eyes". |
9 |
| 5 | 164 |
"They showed me," she said, her eyes filled with horror, "by sending a girl between them who had not done her duty as they thought she should". |
9 |
| 5 | 205 |
Her eyes regarded me, rather boldly I thought, as though inviting me to exercise my authority over her, to address to her any command I might see fit, a command which she of course would have no choice but to obey. |
9 |
| 5 | 209 |
I was well aware of the taunt of her flesh, the obvious challenge of her eyes and carriage. |
9 |
| 5 | 215 |
Her eyes sparkled with anger. |
9 |
| 5 | 218 |
Her eyes clouded with bewilderment. |
9 |
| 5 | 222 |
Rebellious fire flared in her eyes, and then she smiled. |
9 |
| 5 | 275 |
She looked up at me, her eyes blazing. |
9 |
| 5 | 288 |
My eyes met hers. |
9 |
| 6 | 84 |
Her eyes briefly clouded with tears. |
9 |
| 6 | 116 |
"Then for me," she said, not raising her eyes. |
9 |
| 6 | 121 |
She looked up at me and I could not read the expression in her troubled eyes. |
9 |
| 6 | 129 |
She looked away, avoiding my eyes. |
9 |
| 6 | 135 |
Fear crept into her eyes. |
9 |
| 6 | 138 |
Her eyes were wide with fear. |
9 |
| 7 | 21 |
Vika of course had worn a scarf and these girls did not, but now Vika no longer wore her scarf; now her collar, steel and gleaming, locked, encircling her fair throat, was as evident and beautiful as theirs, proclaiming her to the eyes of all, like them, only a slave girl. |
9 |
| 7 | 24 |
She had risen from her mat at the foot of the couch unbelievingly, blinking and rubbing her heavy-lidded, ovoid eyes. |
9 |
| 8 | 8 |
I strode to her and held her head in my hands, looking at her eyes. |
9 |
| 8 | 70 |
Her eyes regarded me strangely. |
9 |
| 8 | 90 |
Her eyes looked to the portal and its shattered sensors. |
9 |
| 8 | 91 |
Then she looked at me, something of wonder and fear in her eyes. |
9 |
| 8 | 202 |
Her eyes regarded me with fury. |
9 |
| 8 | 204 |
She raised her head and her taunting blue eyes regarded me boldly. |
9 |
| 8 | 210 |
I looked into those blue eyes and they looked into mine, and I wondered how many men had been burned, and had died, in that smoldering, sullen fire. |
9 |
| 8 | 228 |
She looked again at the sensors, which stared out of the wall like black, gutted metal eyes. |
9 |
| 8 | 233 |
Her eyes were wide with fear. |
9 |
| 9 | 23 |
Her eyes opened. |
9 |
| 9 | 64 |
Her eyes met mine very directly. |
9 |
| 9 | 168 |
I regarded the woman who stood before me, the sullen eyes, the pouting lips, the collar, the brand. |
9 |
| 9 | 197 |
"Very well," she cried, her eyes flashing. |
9 |
| 9 | 218 |
She looked up at me, tears welling in her eyes. |
9 |
| 9 | 229 |
I watched Vika and suddenly she seemed too to know and her head lifted and her eyes widened with horror and she crept to her knees, her hands before her face as though to shield herself and she shuddered and suddenly uttered a wild, long, terrible scream of abject fear. |
9 |
| 9 | 234 |
It had six legs and a great head like a globe of gold with eyes like vast luminous disks. |
9 |
| 9 | 239 |
These two appendages, like eyes, swept the room once and then seemed to focus on me. |
9 |
| 10 | 4 |
The Priest-Kings have eyes, which are compound and many-faceted, but they do not much rely on these organs. |
9 |
| 10 | 6 |
Accordingly the two golden-haired, jointed appendages protruding from their globelike heads, above the rounded, disklike eyes, are their primary sensory organs. |
9 |
| 10 | 70 |
At that moment to my horror a large, perhaps eight feet long and a yard high, multilegged, segmented arthropod scuttled near, its eyes weaving on stalks. |
9 |
| 10 | 72 |
The arthropod stopped and the eyes leaned toward us and then its pincers clicked twice. |
9 |
| 10 | 121 |
My eyes still did not leave the dominion which lay below me. |
9 |
| 12 | 150 |
Neither Priest-King however seemed in the least disturbed by this oath which might have brought tears to the eyes of a member of the Caste of Initiates. |
9 |
| 12 | 158 |
A look of puzzlement seemed to appear in the eyes of the two slaves. |
9 |
| 12 | 201 |
His eyes were filled with tears. |
9 |
| 12 | 215 |
My eyes were fixed however on Sarm and Misk. |
9 |
| 13 | 41 |
She had brown eyes and, I thought, in spite of her shaved head, was attractive. |
9 |
| 14 | 47 |
"The only fibrous body growths permitted Muls are the lashes of the eyes". |
9 |
| 14 | 48 |
This, I supposed, would have to do with protecting the eyes from particles. |
9 |
| 14 | 58 |
I leaned back against the portal of the Hall of Processing, my eyes closed, and took several slow, deep breaths. |
9 |
| 14 | 60 |
I opened my eyes. |
9 |
| 14 | 66 |
I closed my eyes again and shook my head. |
9 |
| 15 | 82 |
"It is well for us to die," said Misk, "for otherwise the Nest would be eternal and the Nest must not be eternal, for how could we love it if it were so?" I could not follow all of what Misk was saying, and I found it hard to take my eyes from the inert figure of the young male Priest-King which lay... |
9 |
| 16 | 1 |
The Plot of Misk I took my eyes from the young Priest-King and looked up at Misk. |
9 |
| 16 | 2 |
I could see the disklike eyes in that golden head above me and see the flicker of the blue torch on their myriad surfaces. |
9 |
| 16 | 12 |
Tears burned in my eyes and my body trembled. |
9 |
| 16 | 85 |
The lenses of their eyes are altered in such a way that what they see is registered by means of transducers on scent-screens in the scanning room. |
9 |
| 16 | 87 |
"The eyes look different?" I asked. |
9 |
| 16 | 89 |
"Was the creature Parp so implanted?" I asked, remembering his eyes. |
9 |
| 16 | 117 |
My eyes smarted, I suppose from some heat or fume of the Mul-Torch. |
9 |
| 16 | 121 |
I shook my head and wiped my eyes. |
9 |
| 16 | 123 |
Inwardly I cursed the Mul-Torch that had brought tears to the eyes of a Warrior of Ko-ro-ba. |
9 |
| 16 | 200 |
I puzzled on the many things which Misk had told me, and then I looked up at him, lifting my torch that I might better see that great head with its rich, disklike, luminous eyes. |
9 |
| 17 | 4 |
In fevered sleep it seemed I saw Sarm's great head with its powerful, laterally moving jaws hovering over me, that I heard the cry of larls and saw the burning pupils of Parp's eyes and his reaching toward me with instruments and a golden net, and I found myself chained to the foot of Vika's couch a... |
9 |
| 17 | 6 |
I rubbed my eyes and stood up, and through the transparent plastic of the case I saw a Priest-King. |
9 |
| 17 | 99 |
"You are seeing through the eyes of an Implanted One," said Sarm. |
9 |
| 17 | 102 |
"Yes," he said, "the pupils of his eyes have been replaced with lenses and a control net and transmitting device have been fused with his brain tissue. |
9 |
| 17 | 107 |
I wondered of the man through whose eyes I was now seeing, who he was, what he had been, that unknown Implanted One who now walked some lonely road somewhere on Gor, a device of Priest-Kings. |
9 |
| 17 | 111 |
Once again I looked into the observation cube, and wondered about that unknown man, or what had been a man, through whose eyes I now looked. |
9 |
| 17 | 141 |
Before my horrified eyes in the observation cube the man seemed suddenly to vaporize in a sudden blasting flash of blue fire. |
9 |
| 18 | 10 |
The visual mark was plain to human eyes but it would not be likely to be noticed by Priest-Kings, any more than a small, insignificant sound is likely to be noticed by a human who is not listening for it and is attending to other things. |
9 |
| 18 | 26 |
"But," said Mul-Al-Ka, "should you wish to do something which Sarm will not know of, simply let us know and we will avert our eyes". |
9 |
| 18 | 112 |
He moved his forelegs in a strange parallel pattern, touching himself with each leg at three places on the thorax and one behind the eyes. |
9 |
| 19 | 61 |
For all practical purposes it now seemed that Priest-Kings would be invulnerable to my blade, though I supposed I might have injured them severely if I sliced at the sensory hairs on the legs, at the trunk joining thorax and abdomen, at the eyes and antennae if I could reach them. |
9 |
| 20 | 63 |
Her terrified eyes fell on Mul-Al-Ka, Mul-Ba-Ta and myself. |
9 |
| 20 | 94 |
I noted that her hair was brown and fine, her eyes dark and longly lashed. |
9 |
| 20 | 123 |
She shook her head, her eyes bursting with tears. |
9 |
| 21 | 11 |
My eyes drifted upward and I froze for an instant and then, scarcely moving, touched Mul-Ba-Ta's arm. |
9 |
| 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. |
9 |
| 22 | 138 |
"Even to those who carried Gur?" asked Mul-Ba-Ta, shivering at the thought of those small round bodies and the strange arms and legs, and eyes. |
9 |
| 22 | 176 |
"And," he said, peering down at me, his luminous eyes intent, "it would be a great crime to kill one". |
9 |
| 23 | 17 |
She was unmoving and her eyes seemed fixed on me with all the horror of the last moment in which the jaws of the Golden Beetle must have closed upon her. |
9 |
| 23 | 40 |
I wiped the back of my forearm across my eyes. |
9 |
| 23 | 46 |
I returned and held the torch and her body was the same as before, the eyes fixed with the same expression of frozen horror, so I left the chamber. |
9 |
| 23 | 63 |
From her flesh at one point I could see the gleaming eyes of a small organism, golden and about the size of a child's turtle, scrambling, trying to pull itself from the leathery shell. |
9 |
| 24 | 1 |
The Golden Beetle At that instant I heard a slight noise and looked up to see peering at me from the darkness of one of the tunnels leading from the cavern, two flaming, luminous eyes. |
9 |
| 24 | 3 |
It was about the size of a rhinoceros and the first thing I noticed after the glowing eyes were two multiply hooked, tubular, hollow, pincerlike extensions that met at the tips perhaps a yard beyond its body. |
9 |
| 24 | 9 |
The creature's head was even now withdrawn beneath the shell but its eyes were clearly visible and of course the extensions of its jaws. |
9 |
| 24 | 16 |
It lifted its hooked, tubular jaws before its eyes as though to shield them from the light. |
9 |
| 24 | 31 |
I slipped my sword into its sheath and knelt beside Vika's body, not taking my eyes off the creature who stood about four yards distant. |
9 |
| 24 | 32 |
By feeling I closed the lids of her eyes in order that they might no longer stare blindly out with that look of frozen horror. |
9 |
| 24 | 72 |
Surely there would be time, if not to sleep, to close my eyes for a moment. |
9 |
| 24 | 76 |
I saw the peering eyes. |
9 |
| 25 | 14 |
My eyes fell on Vika of Treve. |
9 |
| 25 | 132 |
Her eyes fell on me and opened wide in disbelief. |
9 |
| 25 | 135 |
She looked up and her eyes were wide and her words were scarcely a whisper. |
9 |
| 25 | 141 |
As she gazed upon me her eyes held a strange light which I did not understand. |
9 |
| 25 | 159 |
I extended my hands to her and her eyes met mine, blue and beautiful and calm, and she lifted her bound wrists and placed them in my hands and kneeling before me lowered her head between her arms and said softly, very clearly, "I the girl Vika of Treve submit myself—completely—to the m... |
9 |
| 25 | 165 |
To my amazement her eyes as they looked up into mine were tender, moist, submissive, yielding. |
9 |
| 25 | 182 |
Her eyes were moist. |
9 |
| 25 | 187 |
"It means, Tarl Cabot," she said, her eyes wet with tears, "that I love you". |
9 |
| 26 | 26 |
She bit her lip and choked back a sob and stopped crying, though her eyes still brimmed with tears. |
9 |
| 26 | 62 |
She moaned and leaned against the side of the case, her eyes closed. |
9 |
| 26 | 68 |
Rather I looked rather sternly down into her eyes and said simply, "What I wished". |
9 |
| 26 | 70 |
But then she looked up at me and there was no bitterness in her eyes, no reproach, only a question. |
9 |
| 26 | 75 |
"Earlier," she said, "I thought—" but she did not finish her sentence and her eyes clouded briefly with tears. |
9 |
| 26 | 92 |
Her eyes met mine. |
9 |
| 26 | 94 |
Suddenly she fell on her knees, her eyes filled with tears, and extended her hands to me. |
9 |
| 26 | 99 |
Her eyes were fixed on the key that dangled from the leather loop in my hand. |
9 |
| 26 | 125 |
Vika had now regained her feet and was wiping her eyes with her arm in one corner of the case. |
9 |
| 26 | 143 |
"Oh Cabot," she cried with relief, reproachfully, "how frightened I was!" She stepped to my side and lifted her eyes to mine and gently placed her hand on my arm. |
9 |
| 26 | 172 |
I stepped to the door and Vika, holding my arm, smiling and looking up into my eyes, accompanied me. |
