One of the instruments was an eight-stringed czehar, rather like a large flat oblong box; it is held across the lap when sitting cross-legged and is played with a horn pick; the other was the kalika, a six-stringed instrument; it, like the czehar, is flat-bridged and its strings are adjusted by mean... |
10 |

"Never, Tuchuk sleen, never!" Kamchak turned to certain of the warriors with him. |
10 |

Never had it fallen. |

Ta-Sardar-Var is a direction which appears on all Gorean maps; Ta-Sardar-Ki-Var, of course, never appears on a map, since it would be any direction which is not Ta-Sardar-Var. |
10 |

They conferred again for a moment and then the warrior of the Kataii approached, a lithe, strong proud man, one in whose eyes I could read that he had never lost his saddle, nor turned from a foe. |
10 |
| 4 | 44 |
I had never encountered such a weapon and I had little notion as to how it might be met. |
10 |
| 6 | 28 |
Kamchak, too, seemed surprised at the sight of the girl, for never had he seen one so peculiarly attired. |
10 |
| 6 | 131 |
"I have never heard of it," said Kamchak. |
10 |
| 6 | 186 |
"I myself," I said, "have never seen such a collar". |
10 |
| 8 | 174 |
Elizabeth Cardwell never again brought a half-filled dung sack to the wagon of Kamchak of the Tuchuks. |
10 |
| 8 | 254 |
I supposed that the young man would never be likely to wear the scar, without which, among the stern, cruel Tuchuks, he would be the continuous object of scorn, ridicule and contempt. |
10 |
| 8 | 279 |
That night, one of the hooded members of the Clan of Torturers would have come to her wagon and fetched her away, never to be seen again. |
10 |
| 8 | 362 |
She had misjudged the heartbeat or had not understood the swiftness of the kaiila, never having before observed it from the unenviable point of view of a quarry, because when she turned to see if her hunter had left the vicinity of the circle, he was upon her and as she cried out the bola struck her... |
10 |
| 8 | 388 |
Albrecht was a fine rider and skilled in this sport and, of course, this time, his quarry had been only an untrained barbarian slave, indeed, a girl who had never before run from the bola. |
10 |
| 8 | 406 |
"This wench," he said, "has never been snared in less than thirty-two beats". |
10 |
| 8 | 440 |
"I will run as I have never run before," she cried. |
10 |
| 8 | 442 |
I recalled Albrecht had said that the girl had never been snared in less than thirty-two beats. |
10 |
| 8 | 474 |
To my amazement, as I swung the bola in ever faster circles, never taking my eyes off her, she broke the straight running pattern only about fifty yards from the whip circle, and began to dodge, moving always, however, toward the lance. |
10 |
| 8 | 484 |
I wondered how it could be that such a girl had never been taken in less than thirty-two beats, that she had reached the lance forty times. |
10 |
| 8 | 486 |
Then I remembered the intelligence of her eyes, her confidence, that never had she been taken in less than thirty-two beats, that she had reached the lance forty times. |
10 |
| 9 | 80 |
I smelled perfumes that I had never smelled before. |
10 |

The city had never fallen, and had not been under siege in more than a century. |
10 |

His hand drew back but the blow never fell, for with a cry of pain he reeled away, the hilt of a quiva pressed against the inside of his forearm, the balance of the blade emerging on the other side. |
10 |
| 9 | 467 |
"Never!" cried Aphris. |
10 |
| 9 | 475 |
"It is true you have never lost," wavered Saphrar. |
10 |
| 9 | 478 |
"Unless you permit it," said Kamras sternly, "I may never have an opportunity to cross steel with this barbaric sleen". |
10 |

"Turian girls are never freed," she said. |
10 |
| 10 | 60 |
"Never". |
10 |
| 11 | 159 |
"Never!" cried the girl. |
10 |
| 11 | 278 |
"No," cried Aphris, "I never learned!" "Kaiila feed!" cried Kamchak. |
10 |
| 11 | 279 |
"I'm sorry," said Aphris, now a bit irritated, "I just never planned on becoming a slave". |
10 |
| 11 | 288 |
"She is only a barbarian," said Aphris, "—all knees and elbows—she could never learn". |
10 |
| 11 | 385 |
"Never," said Aphris of Turia. |
10 |
| 11 | 386 |
"I note," said Kamchak, "that you have never called me Master". |
10 |
| 12 | 220 |
Lastly it might be mentioned, thinking it is of some interest, musicians on Gor are never enslaved; they may, of course, be exiled, tortured, slain and such; it is said, perhaps truly, that he who makes music must, like the tarn and the Vosk gull, be free. |
10 |

At times he would permit her to draw back again, but never to the full length of the chain, and each time he permitted her to withdraw, it was less than the last. |

"I never knew a woman," said Elizabeth, her eyes blazing, showing few signs of the paga, "could be so beautiful!" "She was marvelous," I said. |
10 |

Never before had I seen him so pleased. |
10 |
| 12 | 502 |
Moreover, not every man wants to own an untrained barbarian slave, for such, even if given to them, must be fed—and, this spring, as I could tell from walking about the camp, there was no shortage of girls, freshly collared and branded perhaps, untrained perhaps, but yet, and most importantly... |
10 |
| 13 | 107 |
He would do no more to Elizabeth Cardwell than was commonly done to female slaves among the wagons, even those who had never dared to speak back or disobey in the least particular. |
10 |
| 13 | 200 |
Kamchak had never been able to pronounce her name, which he regarded as of barbarian length and complexity. |
10 |
| 13 | 202 |
He could never, like most native speakers of Gorean, properly handle the "w" sound, for it is extremely rare in Gorean, existing only in certain unusual words of obviously barbarian origin. |
10 |
| 15 | 93 |
Never did she do so again when I was nearby. |
10 |
| 15 | 97 |
"You will like your collar! Wait until you feel the iron, Slave—like Tuka!" Kamchak never reproved Tuka, but I would silence her when I was present. |
10 |
| 16 | 13 |
"Perhaps," he said, "I never saw them—during the day I and the other male slaves were chained in a darkened chamber that we might sleep and preserve our strength for the work of the night". |
10 |
| 16 | 97 |
"I was never a customer," he said, "and I often wondered—like yourself apparently—if the bath girls of Turia are as lovely as it is said". |
10 |
| 16 | 206 |
I immediately recalled Elizabeth's description of the man who had examined her for fitness to bear the message collar—on Earth! "I have never seen that man," said Ha-Keel. |
10 |
| 16 | 242 |
"How was it," I asked, "that you, who had never seen me, knew me and spoke my name at the banquet?" "You had been well described to me by the gray fellow," said Saphrar. |
10 |

"It will never occur to them to search the Pleasure Gardens," he said. |

I would rather have expected Kamchak to have stood before the walls of Turia, his kaiila saddled, his arrows at hand, until the winds and snows had at last driven him, the Tuchuks, the wagons and the bosk away from the gates of the beleaguered city, the nine-gated, high-walled stronghold of Turia, i... |
10 |
| 24 | 37 |
"Without an enemy," said Kamchak, "they will never stand together—and if they fail to stand together, someday they will fall". |
10 |
| 24 | 171 |
"Without me," he said, "you will never find your wagon—and I for one will dawdle here no longer". |
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 |

"You never wanted me". |
10 |

Kamchak had never permitted her to cut her hair. |

"I have never known a woman who was a Free Companion," said Elizabeth. |

I recalled that never before had Turia fallen, not since the founding of the city, perhaps thousands of years ago. |

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, ... |

In a girl's collar lock there would be either six pins or six disks, one each, it is said, for each letter in the Gorean word for female slave, Kajira; the male slave, or Kajirus, seldom has a locked collar; normally a band of iron is simply hammered about his neck; often he works in chains, usually... |

The small bow, interestingly, has never been used among tarnsmen; perhaps this is because the kaiila is almost unknown above the equator, and the lesson of kaiilaback fighting has not been much available to them; perhaps it is because of tradition, which weighs heavily in Gorean life, and even in mi... |
10 |
| 22 | 398 |
I suspect, however, that the truest reason is that tarnsmen, never having learned respect for the small bow, tend to despise such a weapon, regarding it as unworthy a Warrior's hand, as being too puny and ineffective to win the approval of a true Gorean fighting man. |

Some of the riders of the Steels, I recalled, seeing it among the belongings of Gladius of Cos, had jested with me about it, asking if it were a toy, or perhaps a training bow for a child; these men, of course, had never, on kaiilaback, and it is just as well for them, met Tuchuks. |
