Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
7	83	I held the daughter of the Ubar tightly as the insect righted himself, floating in the muck for a second, and then managing to free himself with his eight scrambling legs.	10
17	38	In surrender, on the other hand, the shield straps and the shaft of the spear are broken, indicating that the vanquished has disarmed himself and places himself at the mercy of the conqueror.	10
19	78	The Supreme Initiate of Ar himself stood forth, separating himself disdainfully from the cowering knot of white-robed figures that cringed behind him.	10
2	131	"Where a man sets his Home Stone, he claims, by law, that land for himself.	10
2	197	I found it difficult to conceive of one of those theoretical saints rousing himself from contemplation to hurl the scraps of interlopers to the plains below.	10
2	268	Most keenly perhaps, I missed that he had not spoken to me of himself, for I wanted to know him, that kindly, remote stranger whose bones were in my body, whose blood flowed in mine—my father.	10
3	25	In his way, he linked me, this moment, and himself with generations of men who had pondered on the world and its meaning.	10
3	256	Whereas large Earth birds, such as the eagle, must, when taking flight from the ground, begin with a running start, the tarn, with its incredible musculature, aided undoubtedly by the somewhat lighter gravity of Gor, can with a spring and a sudden flurry of its giant wings lift both himself and his ...	10
3	272	He fastened himself in the saddle with a broad purple strap.	10
4	6	The effect was startling: there was the sudden bright flash of yellow glittering light, the splash of sparks, and a scream of pain and rage from the tarn as he immediately beat his wings, lifting himself out of my reach in a rush of air that nearly forced me over the edge of the roof.	10
4	11	If he had not been simply a winged beast, I would have believed him to be struggling with himself, a creature locked inwardly in mental torture.	10
4	90	There was a rush of wings outside the window of my apartment, and the Older Tarl flung himself across the room and dragged me to the floor.	10
12	21	He himself showed no impatience.	10
12	177	I breathed a sigh of relief as the black monster lifted himself in flight.	10
13	116	The man, who seemed to leap into gigantic stature as he lifted himself into full height, took from under his yellow robes a tarn whistle and blew a long, shrill note.	10
14	95	As I found a moment's respite, I spun to face him, hoping to have it out with the Ubar himself, but as I did so, the shackles that I had worn struck me forcibly in the face and throat, thrown like a bolo by Marlenus.	10
14	115	Marlenus himself knelt in the darkness to check the knots in the binding fiber, tightening them carefully.	10
14	146	The first guess would be that my body had torn in two, and the darkness would conceal the truth for a moment, until the tarnsman himself would try the ropes, to test the weight of their burden.	10
15	109	Without looking around the tent, the man addressed himself directly to Kazrak.	10
15	128	He touched it, committing himself to moving it.	10
15	218	He will proclaim himself their liberator, their deliverer from the despotism of the Initiates, the restorer of the old order, the glory of the empire".	10
16	56	Indeed, it was probable that Pa-Kur had no intention of returning the Home Stones at all but was determined to follow in the imperial footsteps of Marlenus himself.	10
17	34	The Supreme Initiate, as he called himself, raised a shield and then set it at his feet.	10
17	64	Pa-Kur himself rode a black tharlarion, one of the few I had seen.	10
19	87	Pa-Kur himself seemed awed.	10
19	128	Pa-Kur feinted, not exposing himself, his eyes seeming to watch my shoulder, noting how I parried the blow.	10
20	19	Oddly enough, the body of Pa-Kur himself was never recovered from the foot of the Cylinder of Justice.	10
20	21	Marlenus, in spite of his heroic role in the victory, submitted himself to the judgment of Ar's Council of High Castes.	10
20	36	I was honored that the little scribe had separated himself from his beloved scrolls long enough to share my happiness, only that of a warrior.	10

Book 2. (25 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
21	271	That name which he has had from birth, by which he has called himself and knows himself, that name which is so much a part of his own conception of himself, of his own true and most intimate identity, is suddenly gone.	10
1	2	He was an instructor in English history and I, intending to work for some three years to save money toward law school, had accepted an appointment as an instructor in physical education, a field which, to my annoyance, Cabot never convinced himself belonged in the curriculum of an educational instit...	10
1	62	I felt that the time would come when Cabot would speak to me of the mountains but that he himself would have to choose that time.	10
1	128	Cabot, still half-drunk, looked about himself, at the brutal electric geometry of that great city, at the dark, lonely shapes that moved through the light snow, at the pale glimmering headlights of the cars.	10
3	84	Indeed, frequent enough were the stories where even a warrior was overcome by an angry peasant into whose hut he had intruded himself, for in the vicinity of their Home Stones men fight with all the courage, savagery and resourcefulness of the mountain larl.	10
3	88	He would speak little himself, being unskilled in speech, and being too proud to form sentences which he knew would most likely be stumbling and ungrammatical, but would sit by the fire until dawn refusing to let me sleep, wanting me to talk to him, to tell him stories, to recount adventures, to giv...	10
3	136	He struggled with himself, his simple wide face twisted in agony, his eyes tortured.	10
5	72	It was pity, the forbidden emotion, and yet he could not restrain himself.	10
5	75	He seemed to be struggling with himself, as though he wanted to speak his own words and not those of the Priest-Kings.	10
7	34	It was obvious that Thorn, unlike my old enemy Pa-Kur, who presumably had perished at the siege of Ar, was not a man above sensual vices, not a man who could with fanatical purity and single-minded devotion sacrifice himself and entire peoples to the ends of his ambition and power.	10
8	109	Since the siege of Ar, when Pa-Kur, Master Assassin, had violated the limits of his caste and had presumed, in contradiction to the traditions of Gor, to lead a horde upon the city, intending to make himself Ubar, the Caste of Assassins had lived as hated, hunted men, no longer esteemed mercenaries ...	10
11	155	Ost looked about himself as well as he could, his eyes bulging with terror.	10
11	192	"Ost knew himself to be suspected of plotting against the throne".	10
11	203	Ost himself snickered.	10
12	140	"He will go away, and find himself another woman, one more lovely than a girl of Tharna".	10
13	33	Linna, in the dungeon, had told Andreas and me that a man of Tharna must attend the Amusements of Tharna at least four times a year, and that, failing that, he must take part in them himself.	10
14	171	I wondered sometimes if that bird, my Ubar of the Skies, that tarn of tarns, of a race of birds spoken of by Goreans as Brothers of the Wind, might have considered himself as above the goad, resented its shocks and sparks, resented that that puny human device would pretend to teach him, he, a tarn o...	10
15	40	The man of Tharna, taught from birth to regard himself as an unworthy, ignoble and inferior creature, at best a dull-witted beast of burden, did not, on the whole, make a good tarnsman.	10
17	38	He hated me, blaming me somehow for the fact that he found himself in this dire predicament.	10
17	57	With a rattle of chain and a roll of his great shoulders, Kron stretched himself out as well as he could in the cramped quarters.	10
20	12	It was the Administrator of the Mines himself.	10
20	46	I wondered too at her treachery, her strange hatred of me, for somehow it seemed not to fit well with the lonely girl on the ledge, who had stood quietly gazing at the field of talenders while a warrior had gorged himself on the kill of his tarn.	10
20	108	Then mercifully I called "Four-strap!" I feared the courageous beast would kill himself before surrendering to the unseen force that blocked his path.	10
21	222	'" Targo threw a violent look at the grizzled man, who, smiling to himself, knelt to supervise the irons in the brazier.	10
25	1	The Roof of the Palace The war cries of Tharna and Ko-ro-ba mingled as Thorn hurled himself down the stairs toward me and I raced toward him.	10

Book 3. (57 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
14	114	He himself, of course, did not use a washing-booth but groomed and cleaned himself in the age-old fashions of Priest-Kings, with his cleaning hooks and mouth.	10
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
16	60	I mused that man had not proved himself worthy of such a technology even to himself.	10
33	125	I had intended to make use of that moment myself, pretending to have come with a message from Priest-Kings, to encourage man to live as I wished him to live, to respect himself and others, to be kind and to be worthy of the heritage of a rational animal, and yet of what worth would these things be i...	10
1	20	Perhaps he thinks of them not so much as books as personal records or histories, written perhaps as much for himself as for others.	10
1	33	Beyond this of course we have only the accounts of Cabot himself, brought to my attention by Smith, which we may or may not accept.	10
1	51	If I should meet him I knew he would thrust himself upon me and insist on being taken into the Sardar, though he would know it would mean his death, and I would have to bundle him in his blue robes, hurl him into a rain barrel and make my escape.	10
2	92	As soon as he casts his weapon he throws himself to the ground and covers his body with his shield, as does each man successively behind him.	10
2	95	Once Last Spear casts his weapon he may not throw himself to the ground.	10
2	99	He does not hurl himself to the ground in order that he will remain conspicuously in the larl's field of vision and thus be the object of its wounded, maddened onslaught.	10
3	13	Only an instant later did I understand what was happening, for, suddenly turning, he threw himself on his side and, his head facing in the other direction, hurled his hind legs at me.	10
3	59	If one had encountered him in the eighteenth century, one might have taken him for a jolly, snuff-sniffing, roisterous country squire, knowing himself the salt of the earth, not above twitting the parson nor pinching the serving girls; in the nineteenth century he would have owned an old book shop a...	10
3	91	I shivered, but to my surprise the man who called himself Parp clutched his pipe in a white hand and seemed to give a start of terror.	10
4	1	The Hall of Priest-Kings As I followed the man who called himself Parp down the stone passage, the portal behind me closed.	10
4	27	His sandaled feet did not reach to the floor, and he made a slight grimace as he settled himself on the throne.	10
4	125	He glanced about himself with ill-concealed terror.	10
5	168	"But there is only one Priest-King," I said, "who calls himself Parp".	10
9	62	"But in the end," said Vika, "fearing he would slay himself she consented to become his Free Companion".	10
12	191	Now the man was on his knees, gasping, supporting himself on the palm of his right hand.	10
14	156	I would learn later, however, that this simple fact was indeed almost incomprehensible to Priest-Kings, and that Misk, though he readily accepted it as a fact in his mind, could not bring himself, so to speak, in the furthest reaches of his heart to acknowledge it as true, for were not both he and S...	10
16	59	Man had not proved himself worthy of a superior technology to the Priest-Kings.	10
17	17	Sarm looked about himself.	10
17	103	He himself is now unconscious, for the control net is activated.	10
17	104	Later we will allow him to rest, and he will see and hear and think again for himself".	10
17	127	He looked furtively about himself as though he feared he might be observed.	10
18	98	Sarm stopped on the narrow iron railing circling the huge, glassy blue dome and straightened himself and turned to face me.	10
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.	10
18	114	I then realized that he had touched himself at the points of entry taken by the wires which had been infixed in the young Priest-King's body on the stone table in the secret compartment below Misk's chamber.	10
18	142	"Precisely," said Sarm, "and yet there is one among us—himself incredibly enough a Priest-King—who could betray his own kind, who would be willing to see this glory vanish".	10
19	52	I was pleased to note that it was only with genuine effort that Sarm managed to control himself.	10
20	204	Also of course a Free Companionship might be refused, in all Gorean right, by the girl, and thus a warrior can hardly be blamed, after risking his life, for not wanting to risk losing the precious prize which he has just, at great peril to himself, succeeded in winning.	10
22	91	Misk drew himself up to his proud, almost eighteen feet of height, save that he inclined slightly forward from the vertical, and fixed on us with his antennae what I had come to recognize in the last few weeks as a look of rather patient, gentle reproach.	10
26	261	As I thought of our primeval ancestor standing in the mouth of his cave one hand gripping a chipped stone and perhaps the other a torch, his mate behind him and his young hidden in the mosses at the back of the cave I wondered at the genetic gifts that would ensure the survival of man in so hostile ...	10
27	167	Once again Sarm leaped in, his bladed projection lifted to strike, but this time Misk suddenly straightened himself promptly on the leg which had seemed to fail him and whipped his antennae back behind his head an instant before the stroke of Sarm's blade and when Sarm struck he found his appendage ...	10
27	182	My interest was more with Sarm, whom I saw lift himself with delicate menace to his four posterior appendages.	10
27	186	Sarm had drawn himself up again to his full height and like a golden blade he stood behind Misk and before the Mother.	10
27	190	But Sarm looked about himself to the golden rows of immobile Priest-Kings who watched him and then, satisfied, he opened those great, laterally moving jaws and advanced slowly on Misk.	10
28	5	I think with one such weapon a man might have made himself Ubar of all Gor.	10
28	238	To be sure, a smaller dome would make the craft more maneuverable in the tunnels, but I think Misk did not trust himself to do battle with his former brethren.	10
29	49	I hoped Sarm himself might have been in that flagship.	10
29	136	His abdomen now dragged on the ground but he pushed himself toward me, jaws snapping, by means of the two forward supporting appendages and the remains of his posterior appendages.	10
29	144	Did it wish me to comb the antennae? Was it conscious? Was it mad with pain? I stood not understanding and then the Priest-King did what he wished: with a toss of his great golden head he hurled his antennae against my blade, cutting them from his head, and then, after a moment, having closed himsel...	10
30	186	The most remarkable event was a delegation of Sarm's Priest-Kings, led by Kusk himself, who surrendered to Misk, pledging themselves to his cause.	10
31	5	Misk would surrender himself to Sarm and I, theoretically, would then be allowed to go free.	10
31	104	Dusty, covered with whitish powder, he looked about himself disbelievingly at the ruins.	10
31	153	He had been watching me approach and now his antennae focused on me and he drew himself up to his full golden height.	10
31	194	I thought he might be telling himself to be done with me, but somehow I knew this could not be.	10
31	231	One last time he looked about himself, his antennae surveying the grandeur of the Nest, and then tumbled from the walkway and fell to the surface of the globe and slid until he fell to the rubble below.	10
32	93	I smiled to myself, for Misk seemed now to busy himself with his cleaning hooks.	10
32	176	Misk seemed to straighten himself, his antennae waved about wildly, every fiber of his body seemed to shiver.	10
32	238	In a bound, almost like a small balloon, he floated up, and twisting about, reseated himself in the throne.	10
32	301	He threw the switch again and the portal began to roll down but one of the larls with a wild roar threw himself towards it and got half his body and one long, raking clawed paw under it.	10
32	332	"Good," said Parp, not flinching, "follow me!" Vika screamed and I cried out for him to stop, but Parp dashed forward and threw himself into the jaws of the startled larl and it lifted him in its jaws and began to shake him savagely, and I was at its feet and thrust my sword between its ribs, plungi...	10
33	146	"To believe in himself," said Om, incredibly.	10
34	15	"We do not know," said the Older Tarl, for my father could not bring himself to say the words.	10
35	54	I truly believe it never occurred to Misk that I meant that he himself, Misk, was the greatest of the Priest-Kings.	10
35	114	Misk looked about himself, and lifted his antennae toward the moons and the wind-swept grass.	10

Book 4. (48 results) Nomads of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
2	118	The third rider placed himself, reining in suddenly, pulling the mount to its hind legs, and it reared snarling against the bit, and then stood still, its neck straining toward me.	10
2	134	Actually I was later to learn that the jeweled belt is worn to incite envy and accrue enemies; its purpose is to encourage attack, that the owner may try the skill of his weapons, that he need not tire himself seeking for foes.	10
3	23	At last the Tuchuk detached himself from the other three warriors and pranced his kaiila to within a dozen yards of me.	10
4	52	To the head came the flashing bola moving in its hideous, swift revolution almost invisible in the air and I, instead of lowering my head or throwing myself to the ground, met instead the flying weighted leather with the blade of a Koroban short sword, with the edge that would divide silk dropped up...	10
5	12	By one fire I could see a squat Tuchuk, hands on hips, dancing and stamping about by himself, drunk on fermented milk curds, dancing, according to Kamchak, to please the sky.	10
7	36	He then shook himself and regarded Kamchak.	10
7	254	How she had challenged him, how she had walked, how insolent she had been! Perhaps in that moment she thought how amused the man might be could he see her now, that proud girl, now in the Sirik, her head to the pelt of a larl, kneeling to barbarians, begging to be a slave girl; and if she thought of...	10
8	243	The problem of the young man, and perhaps the reason that he had not yet won even the Courage Scar of the Tuchuks, was that he had fallen into the hands of Turian raiders in his youth and had spent several years in the city; in his adolescence he had, at great risk to himself, escaped from the city ...	10
8	249	He had armed himself with castoff weapons, with which he practiced in solitude.	10
9	65	This would be impractical, naturally, save for the detestable device of the golden bowl and tufted banquet stick, dipped in scented oils, by means of which the diner may, when he wishes, refresh himself and return with eagerness to the feast.	10
9	464	It was something he would not buy with the golden sphere from Saphrar the merchant; it was something he was clearly capable of arranging, with Tuchuk cunning, by himself.	10
10	18	It was one of the highest prices ever paid among the wagons for a slave and I judged that Albrecht had sorely missed his little Tenchika; the high price he was forced to pay for the girl was made even more intolerable by Kamchak's amusement at his expense, roaring with laughter and slapping his knee...	10
10	164	"Any man who permits himself to care for a slave girl," said Kamchak, "is a fool".	10
10	168	At this Kamchak lost all control over himself and he leaned over backward slapping his thighs with the palms of his hands, laughing as though he were demented.	10
10	170	I would not have much minded if he had asphyxiated himself on the spot.	10
12	18	I wondered if Saphrar himself might be the key to the mysteries that confronted me.	10
12	218	These various things, from time to time, would be used not only by himself but by others in the group, probably the second kaska player and the third flutist.	10
13	2	Kamchak was beside himself with fury.	10
13	13	He hoisted himself to the saddle of his kaiila, a prancing and trembling hunting sleen on each side of the animal, the chains running to the pommel of the saddle.	10
14	88	Kamchak looked about himself, and picked up one of the arrows and snapped it.	10
14	105	The Tuchuk then looked around himself, sadly, and then again gazed on the sitting, bent-over figure of Kutaituchik.	10
15	10	In the field the Tuchuks would counter the tarnsmen by breaking open the Hundreds into scattered Tens and presenting only erratic, swiftly moving targets; it is difficult to strike a rider or beast at a distance from tarnback when he is well aware of you and ready to evade your missile; and, of cour...	10
15	90	Once he pounded the rug on the polished floor in front of him and cried out angrily, as though to remind himself of some significant and inalterable fact, "She is Turian! Turian!" The work of the wagon was done by Tuka and another girl, whom Kamchak hired for the purpose.	10
16	64	If so, I might have nominated the young man hoisting himself up the rope above me as a candidate for the distinction.	10
16	216	Though raised in Tyros and successful in Turia, Saphrar the merchant thought of himself as one of Port Kar.	10
16	326	Kamchak himself had told me the golden sphere was worthless—poor Tuchuk! But now, I said to myself, poor Cabot! However it came about—and I could not be sure—Others than Priest-Kings had now entered the games of Gor—and these Others knew of the egg and wanted it—an...	10
18	25	"Tarl Cabot," I said, "does not slay himself".	10
18	87	Harold, wrists still bound behind his back, hurled himself against two men and, screaming, they pitched backward into the Yellow Pool of Turia.	10
19	86	Harold looked the girls over and then he went to the low table and poured himself a drink, Ka-la-na wine by the smell of it.	10
21	40	I had seen many things in the man's wagon and I had gathered, correctly it seems, that he was himself a peddler of sorts.	10
21	139	In answer to her questions I told her the reason for which I had entered the city—to steal an object of value from Saphrar of Turia, which he himself had stolen from the Tuchuks.	10
21	220	Then the officer of the guard, nearly beside himself with rage, ordered several of his amused men to put their shoulders to the wagon as well.	10
21	298	Also he was of the Caste of Warriors and would not permit himself to be seen on his funeral pyre in the robes of so low a caste as that of the Bakers.	10
22	110	I saw among them Kamras, Champion of Turia, and another, on Kamchak's right hand, a heavy, swollen, despondent man, who could only have been Phanius Turmus himself.	10
23	50	He had apparently, in the past several days since our escape from Saphrar's keep, been familiarizing himself with the saddle straps and the bird's habits and responses.	10
24	11	I reminded myself, beyond this, that if his house should actually be forced, and himself threatened, he could always flee, with relative safety, at the last moment, abandoning his men, his servants and slaves to the mercies of ravaging Tuchuks.	10
25	304	What then would be her fate? Moreover, I reminded myself of my work, and that a warrior cannot well encumber himself with a woman, particularly not a free woman.	10
25	936	Also, he reminded himself, it is only a fool who frees a slave girl.	10
26	53	"He is coming to bargain with Saphrar, but I can better whatever terms he is offered—for I have all the gold and women of Turia, and by nightfall I will have the private hordes of Saphrar himself".	10
26	111	Astride his kaiila Kamchak announced himself.	10
26	128	He would lock doors behind himself but they were forced open.	10
26	132	We passed through kitchens and galleries, even through the private compartments of Saphrar himself, where we saw the multitudinous robes and sandals of the merchant, each worked predominantly in white and gold, though often mixed with hundreds of other colors.	10
26	170	The young man did not move from his place, but set himself to take the charge of the Tuchuks.	10
26	402	"Pa-Kur," I said, "defeated in personal combat on the high roof of the Cylinder of Justice in Ar, turned and to avoid capture threw himself over the ledge.	10
26	528	Well did I recall how Kamchak had made Albrecht of the Kassars pay dearly for the return of his little darling, Tenchika, and how he had roared with laughter because the Kassar had paid such a price, obviously having allowed himself to care for a mere slave girl, and she a Turian at that! "I would g...	10
27	4	The Turian Ubar himself, with Kamras, former Champion of Turia, both clad in the Kes, were chained at the door, to wash the feet of those who would enter.	10
27	9	Kamchak, as a Tuchuk, could not bring himself to be quite as generous with the city's women, and the five thousand most beautiful girls of Turia were branded and given to the commanders of Hundreds, that they might be distributed to the bravest and fiercest of their warriors; the others were permitt...	10
27	76	Albrecht himself was busy elsewhere, talking with Conrad, Ubar of the Kassars.	10

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
18	410	Each of his limbs, and his throat, was separately confined, each chained individually to the wall, each chain running to a separate ring bolted in the stone; any one of the chains would have been sufficient to hold a man; I gathered that this prisoner must be unusual indeed; I observed, further, tha...	10
19	113	Each of these, in his way, prepared himself for the evening, sketching out melodies or sound patterns, lost with himself.	10
19	309	Angrily he motioned back the whip slave, who stood behind the girl, and then he himself threw her hands cruelly behind her back and snapped shut the slave bracelets, thus himself confining her.	10
1	58	Kuurus smiled bitterly to himself.	10
1	60	Their tunic, said Kuurus to himself, is as black as mine.	10
1	63	Kuurus smiled to himself.	10
1	75	It pleases them to speak of justice, he said to himself.	10
1	78	There is no such thing as justice, said Kuurus, to himself.	10
2	8	Tarl of Bristol himself on the windy height of Ar's Cylinder of Justice had defeated Pa-Kur, Master of the Assassins.	10
2	13	Kuurus stepped between the great gates and looked about himself.	10
2	116	At last, bleeding and scarcely able to whine, Hup curled himself into a small, trembling ball, his head between his legs, his hands holding his ankles.	10
2	263	"Where does this house obtain riches such that they may so easily outbid all other factions in Ar?" "It is a rich house," said Portus, looking about himself.	10
3	49	Many of the Players dreamed of the day they might be nominated for intercity competitions at the Fairs of the Sardar, for a victor in the Sardar Fairs earns enough to keep himself, and well, for years, which he then would devote to the deeper study of the game.	10
3	124	It seemed reasonably clear to me, at that point, that the Player had made a presumably weaker move in order to prejudice the game against himself, a move which could be defended, however, on the grounds that certain authorities favored it.	10
3	206	Then the Vintner began to howl with pleasure and slap his knees so pleased he was at the wonder of it, though he himself was the victim.	10
3	208	And then the Vintner himself, as proud as though it had been his own, announced the Player's next move.	10
3	238	He pressed the piece of gold into my hand and turned away, stumbling from me, reaching out with his right hand to guide himself along the wall.	10
4	107	The Administrator of Ar himself, and the High Initiate, are partisans of the green".	10
5	30	Lastly it might be mentioned that it is a capital offense for a locksmith, normally a member of the Metal Workers, to make an unauthorized copy of a key, either to keep for himself or for another.	10
5	164	Bracing himself against the wind, the antennae struggling to retain their focus on me, he took one delicate step toward me across the metal surface of the disk.	10
5	174	For an instant it seemed as though the great creature could not stand, as though he might fall; then, as though by an act of will, moving inch by inch through his body, he straightened himself.	10
5	491	Then Misk straightened himself.	10
5	602	There Al-Ka would release Elizabeth from the rain canvas and busy himself with the wagon.	10
6	18	Without being asked I had taken a position at the table of Cernus himself.	10
7	95	I myself, from my conversations with Misk, probably suspected more of its role and purposes than any other on that shelf, with the exception of Cernus himself.	10
7	106	Cernus then himself climbed into the basket.	10
10	13	"Sometimes," he added, "Cernus amuses himself with the women kept in this room, leading them to believe that if they serve him well they will be well treated".	10
13	6	Saphronicus, Captain of the Taurentians, was reportedly, and understandably, beside himself with frustration and rage.	10
13	8	The Administrator himself, with his consort, and many others of the high family, had locked themselves in their quarters, secluding themselves in their outrage and sorrow.	10
13	354	"This afternoon," I said, "at the races, I saw a rider cut the safety straps and free himself from a falling bird".	10
14	107	I was angry and frustrated that Caprus would not surrender the results of his labors before their completion, but I could understand his reasoning, his fears; and, on the other hand, the fact that he had himself located the documents we wished and was copying them gave me great satisfaction, for it ...	10
15	11	I reminded myself, again and again, as the month clock rotated, that Caprus was a trusted agent of Priest-Kings, that Misk himself had spoken in the highest terms of him.	10
15	113	For one thing he never slew an opponent, though the man often could never fight again; the afternoon I had seen him the crowd cried for the death of his defeated opponent, lying bloodied in the sand, pleading for mercy between his legs, and Murmillius had lifted his sword as though to slay the man, ...	10
15	126	It would be better, of course, if her master, bound to be ignorant of the intrigue, would undertake this business himself.	10
15	386	Elizabeth, Virginia and Phyllis had been shown its rudiments, as well as something about the lyre, but they had not been expected to become proficient, nor were they given the time to become so; if their master, at a later date, after their sale, wished his girls to possess these particular attribut...	10
15	397	"Caste sanctuary!" cried Portus, shaking himself free of the guards and stumbling forward and falling on his knees before the wooden dais on which sat the table of Cernus.	10
15	411	Surely to come to this place, the house of his enemy, must have been a last recourse in some fearful set of events, to throw himself on the mercies of Cernus, claiming Caste Sanctuary.	10
16	36	But he had assured me that just recently Cernus had received a large batch of new documents and maps, which were perhaps crucial, and that the Priest-Kings would surely be angry if he did not obtain copies of them as well; moreover, he reminded me, he would refuse to let any documents leave the hous...	10
17	141	But, as this lawlessness grew, and it became such that men would not walk the bridges without arms, the frenzy over the races and the games grew more rabid; it became rare on the streets and bridges to pass a person who would not, either for himself or for someone he knew, wear a faction patch, even...	10
17	203	The first sword of the military forces of Ar, Maximus Hegesius Quintilius, second in authority only to Minus Tentius Hinrabius himself, was relieved of his post.	10
17	261	* * * * Cernus, upon occasion, though Ubar of Ar, would return to sit table in his own house, where, as he had invariably done before, he would play with Caprus, losing himself in the movements of the red and yellow pieces on the large board of red and yellow squares.	10
17	333	The man who had been dancing the ship dance had now left the pit of sand and, over against one wall, in the shadows of the torchlight, largely unnoted, danced alone, danced for himself the memories of gleaming Thassa and the swift black ships, the Tarns of the Sea, as the galleys of Port Kar are kno...	10
18	255	Flaminius laughed and poured himself another drink.	10
18	310	He himself had arranged for an agent of Priest-Kings to purchase the girls.	10
18	438	I had no wish that he kill himself on the paga.	10
18	443	He then indicated behind himself, on the wall, a large number of tiny, regularly formed scratches in the stone, perhaps cut there by a pebble or the edge of the tin drinking dish.	10
18	461	He reached under himself to hold forth for my inspection a shred of damp, rotted blue cloth, the remains of what had once been his robes.	10
18	491	"It was for that purpose he thought himself sent to Ko-ro-ba.	10
18	492	Actually he was sent there to die himself by the knife of a killer.	10
19	85	This was surprising because the hour was still early; I supposed the crowd this night would be unusually large, even for the fourth night of the Love Feast; none of the citizens had paid much attention to my being brought under guard to the box of Cernus; he was Ubar; it is not unusual on Gor for a ...	10
19	104	Cernus laughed to himself and turned his attention to his right, where stood Philemon, and conversed with the Scribe.	10
19	146	Slave girls who escape masters or some free women, who will not accept the matches arranged by their parents, or reject the culture of Gor, occasionally flee to these forests and live together in bands, building shelters, hunting their food, and hating men; there are occasional clashes between these...	10
19	181	The auctioneer, apparently losing his temper, responded angrily to some critics in the first tiers, and was himself hooted and decried.	10
19	185	The auctioneer seemed beside himself.	10
19	312	So saying, he himself stripped her to the waist before the crowd.	10
20	281	He was grinning and cooing to himself while chewing on the peel.	10
20	315	He looked about himself, and saw Qualius, the blind Player.	10
20	328	I will not play!" Hup began to croon to himself in the corner, now rocking back and forth on his haunches.	10
20	366	My champion was Hup, a Fool, that of Cernus was the brilliant, fiery, competitive Scormus of Ar, the young, phenomenal Scormus, who played first board of the city of Ar and held the highest bridge in the city as the province of his game, the master not only of the Players of Ar but doubtless of Gor ...	10
20	418	Cernus himself had not recognized them; perhaps none in the room had; the lame foot was perhaps the legacy of his misshapen father; but the boy was fine, and he was brilliant; he was the marvelous Scormus, youthful master Player of Ar.	10
20	427	"It is impossible," said Scormus, more to himself than another.	10
20	543	Hup, as though puzzled, was waddling about the room scratching his nose, singing a silly little ditty to himself.	10
21	231	He then stood back, stunned, and withdrew a step, and put himself at the ready.	10
21	245	With a cry of rage he threw himself at me and the cry died in his throat, he sprawling in his astonishment, his death and his blood, crosswise in the sand.	10
21	267	They did not relish being witness to the private joke of some high person, doubtless the Ubar himself.	10
21	277	He looked about himself and dropped the iron and fled.	10
21	281	It allows a great deal of mobility and, on the level of squad tactics, has its affinity to the Torian Squares; the space allows the swordsmen, of course, room in which to handle their weapons, room in which to properly attack or defend themselves; in this case I expected the center man to engage me,...	10
21	289	Another Taurentian, by instinct, but not trained instinct, hurled himself forward, and so died.	10
21	348	Ho-Tu drew his blade and acquitted himself sturdily.	10
22	204	Suddenly Green Ubar, in the flash of the wings and the cries of the riders passing him, righted himself and with a cry of rage and pain burst toward the rings, Mip sagging in the saddle.	10
22	217	The bird stood there on the perch, and Mip straightened himself painfully in the saddle.	10
22	529	Ubar of the Skies suddenly uttered a scream that terrified even me, raising the hair on my neck and arms; it was not simply the challenge scream of his kind; it was a scream of pleasure, of horrifying eagerness, of the tarn's lust for blood and war; steel-shod talons grasping, screaming, beak tearin...	10
22	564	I heard a frightful crack and my left arm broke open bloody in two lines; my sword leaped up and the next time the whip knife struck I severed it; Menicius, with a curse, threw the coil of whip at me and it passed overhead; we shot through the first of the final rings, the end rings; his tarn knife ...	10
22	569	Menicius, fumbling, unstrapped himself from the tarn saddle and leaped to the sand, running toward the box of the Ubar, his hands outstretched.	10
23	142	Once Cernus, moving backward, defending himself, fell over the dais, and my sword was at his throat.	10
23	167	He set himself as though to receive my attack.	10
24	62	"In the guise of Murmillius," I said, "Marlenus of Ar, as things went from bad to worse in the city, in the midst of corruption and crime, gathered about himself a following".	10
24	94	Yesterday evening, a guard had presented himself in my room.	10
24	418	Why had this been done to me? Was this the reward for my services? And what of Elizabeth? Was it that Marlenus had looked upon her and so pleasing did he find her that he had decreed that she be reserved for the very Pleasure Gardens of the Ubar of Ar himself, to serve him as a silken wench, one of ...	10

6	82	There, under the light of marsh torches, I saw Ho-Hak, crying with rage, shouting, with an oar pole laying about himself wildly.	10
6	85	He could not have been more enclosed had he found himself in the jaws of the long-bodied, nine-gilled marsh shark.	10
8	59	The man himself did not cry out but the girl, bound near him, screamed.	10
8	386	He struck himself on the chest.	10
8	487	He had not demeaned himself.	10
8	488	He had shown himself a dozen times more man than me.	10
8	490	Ho-Hak had been bred a slave, a degraded and distorted exotic, and had served even in the darkness of the stinking rowing holds of the cargo vessels of Port Kar, and yet, before me, he had shown himself a dozen times more man than me.	10
8	539	I was such that might make a place for himself in a city such as Port Kar.	10
9	618	None of the men had arisen from the tables, though many were of the crew of Surbus himself.	10
11	76	"Sevarius is proclaiming himself Ubar," said the first captain.	10
11	284	"You are the one who calls himself Bosk, are you not?" "I am he," I told him.	10
11	293	Then Samos addressed himself to the Scribe near the rack.	10
11	342	Lysias looked about himself.	10
11	348	Lysias, looking about himself, his cloak swirling, followed the boy from the room.	10
11	538	I wondered if Samos himself might be tired.	10
11	540	"And," Samos went on, "it should preferably be one who is not well known to Cos and Tyros, one who has not angered them, nor proven himself to them a blood enemy upon gleaming Thassa".	10
13	47	Lurius settled himself, breathing heavily, again in his throne.	10
13	145	"What of Henrius Sevarius himself?" I asked.	10
15	130	One of those therein imprisoned, of course, in the opinion of the Council, was Henrius Sevarius, the boy, himself, the Ubar.	10
15	205	Only three in my holding, other than himself, knew his true identity.	10
15	207	The boy himself, of course, did not know that we knew who he was.	10
15	286	Sullius Maximus, who himself dabbled in poetry, and poisons, was a man of high culture, and his opinions in such matters were greatly respected.	10
17	86	Hopefully, the terror of being taken in the flank might cause many captains, or even Chenbar himself, to have the fleet put about, and, if so, this would make their ships the most vulnerable to our own.	10
17	338	He stood on the deck of the round ship, opening and closing his wings, looking about himself, and then threw back his head and screamed.	10
17	343	He looked about himself.	10
17	373	Startled, Chenbar himself, Ubar of Tyros, the Sea Sleen, drew his blade.	10
18	92	"And," said he, defiantly, "a man does not concern himself for a mere female slave".	10
18	198	Lysias himself, however, did not engage me.	10
18	321	If he served the Ubars, or Claudius, regent of Henrius Sevarius, or the Ubarates of Cos and Tyros, or the Others, or Priest-Kings, or himself, I no longer cared.	10
18	422	"Did Samos himself use you?" I asked.	10
18	670	Lysias, seeing me, flung himself at me.	10
18	862	He contains within himself, in his ferments, much that is base and much that is worthy.	10
18	915	"Do you think," asked Samos of Telima, "that this man has been destroyed? That he has lost himself?" "No," said the girl, "my Ubar has not been destroyed.	10
18	916	He has not lost himself".	10

17	87	Rask of Treve was struggling with himself, castigating himself, denouncing himself, I think, fighting not to care for me, a mere slave.	10
6	277	Targo himself had now grown more and more irritable.	10
7	20	Further, in offering as much as two gold pieces in Laura, Targo assured himself the first pick of Haakon's choicest captures.	10
8	420	The physician was busying himself with fluids and a syringe before a shelf in another part of the room, laden with vials.	10
10	570	Shortly after I had come into his keeping, Targo himself, as my master, had, to my horror, delicately, made that determination.	10
10	672	Surely the man, who knew more than I of such matters, was almost beside himself with terror.	10
11	350	As a warrior applies himself to the arts of his weapons, so I applied myself to the arts of the female slave, which I was.	10
12	153	What then did she expect, as a slave? It was no wonder that he had ridded himself of her, that she had been sold.	10
12	316	Then, I supposed, she would be publicly enslaved, and perhaps by the hand of Marlenus himself.	10
17	68	And, too, in various nights, he had spoken to me of himself, and of the death of his parents, and of his training as a boy in Treve, and his learning of the ways of tarns and of the steel of weapons.	10
17	80	I think, rather, he feared himself, and unusual emotions, strange, unaccustomed emotions, frightening him, which might have begun to well within him.	10
17	86	Often I could read his expressions and see there, in his eyes, in the sternness of a visage, the curl of a lip, that he would fight within himself so despicable a weakness.	10
17	88	But I fear, despite himself, he had begun to care, and perhaps more than care, for his El-in-or.	10
17	160	Could he, so mighty a warrior, the master of many women, permit himself to care for me, a slave? I was not even of Gor.	10
17	279	Samos himself was abroad upon Thassa, in ventures of piracy and enslavement, and it was through a subordinate that I was purchased.	10
17	386	Numbly I had returned to the kitchen, where Tellius, himself astonished, gave me my work.	10
17	479	He is said himself to be a master swordsman, much feared, and his house is strong, and there are men here, some hundreds, who pledge their lives and their blades to him.	10

9	174	"Anticipating such a desire," laughed Verna, "we had written confirmation of the enactment, signed with the seal of Marlenus himself.	10
11	389	Marlenus looked about himself.	10
11	498	Then, to her astonishment, and that of all those watching, saving the Ubar himself, Marlenus took the key to her collar from his pouch.	10
11	521	He can, though it requires strength, and it is awkward and painful, drag himself about by the hands.	10
12	127	He hunted and amused himself while I and my men, his guests, partook of his hospitality at his camp, dining on his largesse.	10
14	238	He struggled, but he could not, of course, free himself.	10
14	299	In their dance they danced among the staked-out bodies of the men of Marlenus, and about the great Ubar himself.	10
16	269	"If any man of Tyros falls," he cried, "ten slaves will die!" Scarcely had his words been uttered when he, himself, fell, an arrow from the great bow lost in the yellow of his tunic.	10
16	278	Sarus slew the man himself, with his sword, but he, Sarus, did not then move to strike the slaves.	10
16	282	Once more the men from Ar, led by Marlenus himself, their Ubar, took up their song.	10
17	128	Sarus himself, yesterday morning, had slain one.	10
18	19	He had himself advanced, alone, before his men.	10
18	573	"Who is he?" inquired the leader, himself in the yellow of Tyros.	10
19	337	Sarus had been willing to surrender them for the safety of himself, his men and those slaves he regarded as important.	10
22	126	About his throat was a tangle of leather and claws, taken from panther women, with which he had adorned himself.	10
22	306	He stood still for a moment, and then straightened himself.	10

2	169	In battle, of course, such shields are not hung on the side of the ship; they would obstruct the thole ports; but, even if oars were not used, they would be within the hull, at hand; why should a crewman expose himself to missile fire to retrieve a shield so fastened? Also, of course, when the ship ...	10
2	357	I suddenly saw the large man of Torvaldsland, he of incredible stature, seem to come alive, eyes wild, screaming, veins prominent on his forehead, mouth slobbering, striking about himself almost blindly with a great ax.	10
4	112	He, standing on this ring, fastens himself by the waist to the mast by looping and buckling a heavy belt about it, and through his master belt.	10
5	136	I could detect its captain, doubtless the great Thorgard himself, on its stern deck, above the helmsman, with a glass of the builders.	10
5	167	The helmet of Thorgard himself, however, covered his neck and the sides of his face.	10
5	194	For a quarter of an Ahn the Forkbeard himself held the helm of his ship.	10
6	67	The Forkbeard himself now, from a wooden keg, poured a great tankard of ale, which must have been of the measure of five gallons.	10
6	73	Then the Forkbeard himself drained the remains of the tankard, threw it to the foot of the mast, and then, to my astonishment, leapt from the ship, onto the moving oars.	10
6	75	The Forkbeard then, to the delight of those on the bank, who cheered him, as the serpent edged into the dock, addressed himself delightedly to the oar-dance of the rover of Torvaldsland.	10
6	132	And he, too, clasped many of them to himself, and shook the heads of many in his great hands.	10
6	343	With his belt knife, thrusting Pudding and Gunnhild back, Ivar Forkbeard addressed himself to the cutting of the meat.	10
6	459	"Thorgard of Scagnar," I said, "has power comparable to that of the Blue Tooth himself".	10
6	491	Though the hall of Ivar Forkbeard was built only of turf and stone, and though he himself was outlaw, he had met me at its door, after I had been bidden wait outside, in his finest garments of scarlet and gold, and carrying a bowl of water and a towel.	10
6	493	I had washed my hands and face in the bowl, held by the master of the house himself, and dried myself on the towel.	10

10	50	He had done less well in the singing contest, though he much prided himself on his singing voice; he thought, in that one, the judges had been against him; he did not score highly either in the composition of poetry contest nor in the rhyming games; "I am not a skald," he explained to me later; he d...	10

12	49	"He who calls himself Thorgeir of Ax Glacier," proclaimed Svein Blue Tooth, "let him approach!" Ivar Forkbeard eagerly bounded up the stairs toward the dais.	10
12	50	There was not one of his men who did not tense, and reach to his weapons, reassuring himself as to their readiness.	10
12	60	It was obviously the intent of Svein Blue Tooth, himself, to honor this great winner, to bind on his forehead, with his own hands, the talmits.	10
13	49	"Seize him!" screamed the Blue Tooth, and had himself clearly intended to lay rude hands on the innocent Forkbeard, but his men had, forcibly, restrained him, they glaring at Ivar Forkbeard with ill-disguised disapproval.	10
13	54	The high rune-priest of the Thing interposed himself between the violent Blue Tooth and the Forkbeard, who was, innocently, regarding cloud formations.	10

13	217	Before the fellow in the fire could free himself he had been much burned.	10
13	392	It had been done by the hand of Ivar Forkbeard himself, before dawn, some days ago, shortly before his ship had left for the Thing.	10
13	415	Then he drew himself up to a not inconsiderable full height.	10
14	175	I saw Ivar Forkbeard, with a spear, set himself against the charge of an unarmed Kur.	10
15	126	He looked about himself, at the ruins of his camp.	10
15	213	I had not suspected, however, that the Forkbeard was taking advantage of a previously wrought path, and one which, in part at least, he had made for himself in years past.	10
16	171	Torvald, I conjectured, doubtless as cunning and wise as the legends had made him out, had not elected to have himself interred in his own tomb.	10
17	34	Wulfstan had handed the Forkbeard the ax, disarming himself, and had then knelt before him, putting his head to his feet.	10

18	158	The Blue Tooth himself now stood with Rollo, his own hand on the signal spear.	10
