33	328	"You are Drusus Rencius, a captain from Ar, are you not?" "Yes," said Drusus Rencius, angrily.	10

4	146	Among these guards, though he did not have a spear, was Drusus Rencius.	10
4	155	From time to time, too, I stole a glance at Drusus Rencius.	10
4	159	On what sort of world was this that I found myself! I had not known a woman could be so aroused! Again I looked at Drusus Rencius, and the others, guardsmen of Corcyrus.	10
4	173	Drusus Rencius caught him there and flung him back.	10
4	177	"He is unarmed," said Drusus Rencius.	10
4	199	"He was unarmed," said Drusus Rencius.	10
4	268	"May I present to you Drusus Rencius, Lady Sheila, my sovereign, he who is first sword among our guards?" Ligurious had inquired several days ago.	10
4	272	"From what city does Drusus Rencius derive?" I inquired.	10
4	275	"Drusus Rencius is a renegade, Lady," said Ligurious.	10
4	278	I inclined my head to Drusus Rencius.	10
4	301	That Drusus Rencius was first sword among the guards, then, in this case, as his insignia made clear, was not a reference to his rank but a recognition of his skill with the blade.	10
4	304	The command of Drusus Rencius, for example, if he had had one, would presumably be relinquished when he took over his duties as a personal guard.	10
4	312	"See to it," said he to Drusus Rencius.	10
4	313	"As you wish," responded Drusus Rencius.	10
4	315	Drusus Rencius looked down at me.	10
4	370	So, too, I was confident, did my bodyguard, Drusus Rencius, once of Ar.	10
4	400	Drusus Rencius, standing, was towering over me.	10
4	569	He was of the third rank, like Drusus Rencius.	10
4	607	"If you wish," said the guard, "I can call Drusus Rencius".	10
5	1	Miles of Argentum; Drusus Rencius Speculates on What I Might Bring as a Slave; I Have Obtained Greater Freedoms "The arrogant knave now approaching the throne," said Ligurious, whispering in my ear, "is Miles, an ambassador, and general, from Argentum".	10
5	22	My own guard, Drusus Rencius, now in resplendent regalia, fitting for the guard of a Tatrix, was nearby.	10
5	179	I saw Drusus Rencius restrain one man from rushing upon Miles of Argentum.	10
5	219	Drusus Rencius will see you to your quarters".	10
5	229	"Does Lady Sheila wish to return to her quarters now?" inquired Drusus Rencius.	10
5	232	I then began to precede Drusus Rencius to my quarters.	10
5	246	"And what do you think I would go for?" "Lady Sheila must remember," said Drusus Rencius, "that even if she might prove to be quite lovely, she is still untrained".	10
5	267	It pleased me to have received this compliment from Drusus Rencius.	10
5	296	The only restriction was that I must be accompanied by my guard, Drusus Rencius.	10
5	298	Best perhaps, I was allowed to leave the palace whenever I might please, provided I did so incognito and in the company of Drusus Rencius.	10
6	1	The Sirik "There are places you have not taken me in Corcyrus," I said to Drusus Rencius.	10
6	8	"You should adjust your hood," said Drusus Rencius.	10
6	12	Drusus Rencius was so protective! He looked about, nervously.	10
6	20	"I can still see your hair," said Drusus Rencius.	10
6	63	Drusus Rencius wore a nondescript tunic and a swirling maroon cape.	10
6	69	I thought I heard a small noise, as of metal, from within the cloak of Drusus Rencius.	10
6	77	Drusus Rencius looked back from the tarns.	10
6	100	The chorus, according to Drusus Rencius, in its various sections and roles, was the original cast of the drama.	10
6	102	Some purists, according to Drusus Rencius, still criticize this innovation.	10
6	112	"What did you think of the drama?" Drusus Rencius had asked me last night.	10
6	117	"Perhaps," had said Drusus Rencius, dryly.	10
6	121	"I did enjoy the drama," I insisted to Drusus Rencius, standing on the riser, looking over the parapet, "really".	10
6	126	Who, in these days, in a real world, could take anything like honor seriously? "Perhaps," granted Drusus Rencius.	10
6	138	Drusus Rencius, for the most part, had been an attentive and accommodating escort.	10
6	140	Drusus Rencius had even permitted me, with coins, helping me, to bargain.	10
6	163	"You seem interested in the iron belt," had said Drusus Rencius.	10
6	226	"They are afraid of you," Drusus Rencius had explained.	10
6	291	I wanted to please Drusus Rencius.	10
6	341	"He is regarded as one of the finest czehar players on all Gor," said Drusus Rencius, dryly.	10
6	344	It seemed I could do nothing right with Drusus Rencius.	10
6	346	"Is Lady Sheila all right?" inquired Drusus Rencius.	10
6	361	Drusus Rencius, to my surprise, whenever I was in doubt, could supply me with the name.	10
6	366	I was also surprised to find that Drusus Rencius seemed genuinely fond of flowers.	10
6	368	At one secluded point in one of the gardens I had paused and, pretending to adjust my veil, had stood quite close to Drusus Rencius, but he had stepped back, and looked away.	10
6	375	I had enjoyed these days with Drusus Rencius but, at night, returned to my quarters, I would often be restless and lonely.	10
6	381	Drusus Rencius occasionally took me to see various portions of local games.	10
6	404	"Do you wish to leave now?" Drusus Rencius had asked once, during an interval between passages.	10
6	436	I was much aroused and was almost trembling as Drusus Rencius, who seemed unaware of my condition, conducted me back to the palace.	10
6	438	I would give Drusus Rencius another chance to kiss me.	10
6	440	I then stood quite close to Drusus Rencius.	10
6	456	I had been rejected by Drusus Rencius.	10
6	460	Was it because I was a Tatrix? But I did not think that that thought, momentous though it might be, would have deterred a man such as Drusus Rencius.	10
6	491	I wondered if Drusus Rencius would have refused to kiss me if I had not been a free woman, but a slave.	10
6	565	"That is stupid, stupid! She is wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong!" Only later had I been able to wash and compose myself, and prepare to accompany Drusus Rencius to the height of the walls, to enjoy the view, as we had planned.	10
6	567	"I am a larger woman than Susan," I informed Drusus Rencius, on the wall, acidly.	10
6	610	"There is the palace," said Drusus Rencius, pointing.	10
6	614	But why, I asked myself, irritatedly, should a civilization be congenial to nature? Is it not far better, I asked myself, for a civilization to contradict and frustrate nature; is it not far better for it to deny and subvert nature; is it not far better for it to blur natural distinctions and confus...	10
6	623	"There, where you see the trees," said Drusus Rencius, "is the garden of Antisthenes".	10
6	629	"As they are only slaves," said Drusus Rencius, "their feelings and happiness are unimportant".	10
6	631	Men are such brutes! How helpless are the slaves! "There, where you see the trees," said Drusus Rencius, again, "is the garden of Antisthenes".	10
6	634	It was there, on our second visit, that I had first tried to entice Drusus Rencius to kiss me.	10
6	639	I rejected an impulse to kneel before Drusus Rencius.	10
6	780	What was there here, other than the tarns, which need not be closely approached, to be nervous about? "You seem strange today, Drusus Rencius," I said.	10
6	811	Drusus Rencius stood close behind me.	10
6	833	"Let us descend from the wall," said Drusus Rencius.	10
7	116	I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
7	117	How could a free woman, I thought, ever compete with a slave? "Drink this," said Drusus Rencius.	10
7	135	Too, as Drusus Rencius had mentioned, its effects, at least for most practical purposes, lasted indefinitely.	10
7	136	"Have no fear," said Drusus Rencius.	10
7	147	I was a bit irritated with Drusus Rencius.	10
7	217	I, like the other women before me, perhaps women who were mere slaves, wore the steel of Drusus Rencius.	10
7	232	How could it be that I had called Drusus Rencius "Master"? How inadvertently, how naturally, it had slipped out.	10
7	239	I could order Drusus Rencius to remove it from me at any moment I wished, and he would.	10
8	1	I Have Been in the House of Kliomenes; The Room in the Inn of Lysias; War "Perhaps now," said Drusus Rencius, "you have a better idea of the nature of the pens".	10
8	9	I hoped that Drusus Rencius could not smell my arousal.	10
8	10	"Leading position," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	12	"Tal, Citizen," said Drusus Rencius to the fellow passing us in the alley.	10
8	14	It was in this fashion, my head down, his hand in my hair, my head turned to the side, hair, too, about my face and features, obscuring them, that Drusus Rencius had chosen to convey me past strangers in the alleys, coming and going to the house of Kliomenes.	10
8	26	Had Drusus Rencius so much as snapped his fingers I think I might have thrown myself to my back in the alley, begging for his touch.	10
8	27	* * * * "This is the house of Kliomenes," had said Drusus Rencius, climbing the stairs to the narrow, heavy iron portal, recessed some feet back, at the end of a narrow tunnel, in the wall.	10
8	30	I followed Drusus Rencius carefully, that I might not fall.	10
8	53	I saw eyes looking at me, and then, beyond me, at Drusus Rencius.	10
8	56	I could not do so, of course, because of the walls of the tunnel, and Drusus Rencius behind me.	10
8	57	"They are expecting us," said Drusus Rencius, sensing my sudden terror.	10
8	67	"Turn your back to him, and lift your wrists," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	74	"No," said Drusus Rencius, deterring the guard, "there is nothing taped to her instep, nor is there anything else of the sort for which you might be searching concealed about or in her body or hair.	10
8	81	It then swung open and we, the young man, Drusus Rencius and myself, were admitted to the corridor beyond.	10
8	84	I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
8	88	"Here is your pass," said the young man, handing a small disk to Drusus Rencius.	10
8	92	"And here," said the young man, taking the form from the guard and handing it to Drusus Rencius, confirming my speculations, "is your license for the female".	10
8	99	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius, putting the pass and license in his pouch.	10
8	101	"Do you find it surprising?" asked Drusus Rencius.	10
8	110	I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
8	111	"Publius," said Drusus Rencius, "is the house master.	10
8	114	"I shall be delighted," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	117	"Yes," averred Drusus Rencius.	10
8	120	"From what I have heard of her," said Drusus Rencius, smiling, "she is the sort of a woman who has her price".	10
8	123	"He understands, does he not," asked Drusus Rencius, "that the woman is free and, accordingly, certain things are not to be seen".	10
8	132	Drusus Rencius and the newcomer inclined their heads to one another.	10
8	139	* * * * "Leading position," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	149	* * * * "Buy me, Master," begged the girl, kneeling before Drusus Rencius.	10
8	152	The next girl hurried forward and knelt before Drusus Rencius, kissing his feet, and then lifting her head, piteously, to him.	10
8	161	How furious I was that these women were being sent to the feet of Drusus Rencius.	10
8	166	"To his feet! Beg for love!" This girl hurried forward and knelt before Drusus Rencius.	10
8	170	She knelt before Drusus Rencius, her palms on the floor, her head to the very tiles.	10
8	176	"Leave Drusus Rencius alone!" And how offensive that a woman should beg for love! Surely her intimate, desperate needs for attention, for affection and love were better concealed even from herself, if possible, and certainly, at least, from others! And if they must beg, the helpless sluts, did they ...	10
8	247	Drusus Rencius looked sharply at me.	10
8	251	I did not meet Drusus Rencius's eyes.	10
8	256	Indeed, on these premises, I knew that Drusus Rencius even held a license on me.	10
8	294	The hand of Drusus Rencius on my arm drew me, bodily, from the room.	10
8	300	"I will be pleasing! I will be pleasing!" I then turned away from her, following Hermidorus and Drusus Rencius.	10
8	312	Drusus Rencius had pried open the fingers and thrust the hand away.	10
8	345	The accouterments on it he handed to Drusus Rencius.	10
8	359	"Perhaps you should precede us a few paces down the hall," said Drusus Rencius to me.	10
8	370	"I am sorry for the interruption," Hermidorus apologized to Drusus Rencius.	10
8	390	Too, of course, Drusus Rencius did not interfere.	10
8	412	"Splendid," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	428	"Surely she must be a very tiny woman," I said, horrified, to Drusus Rencius.	10
8	433	"It is supposed to be small," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	446	"I see," he smiled, surveying the scrap of paper given to him by Drusus Rencius, "the Lady Lita".	10
8	452	"It is not her true name, of course," said Publius to Drusus Rencius.	10
8	453	"Of course not," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	464	"I think so," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	477	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	504	"This woman is not a slave," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	506	"How are things in Ar?" asked Drusus Rencius.	10
8	518	Something in me seemed to say, "You lose your tarsk, Drusus Rencius.	10
8	529	There I would be alone with Drusus Rencius, a Gorean male, in the room.	10
8	553	Why had Drusus Rencius not freed me from the bracelets! We were not now in the house of Kliomenes! "I will release you in the room," he had said.	10
8	556	I hurried along in the alley behind Drusus Rencius.	10
8	568	"Leading position," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	574	Drusus Rencius released my hair, and I straightened up, continuing to follow him.	10
8	576	I had been rejected! How furious I was at the girl who had so helplessly kissed at the leg of Drusus Rencius.	10
8	579	"Kneel here," said Drusus Rencius, indicating a place near the back entrance, near some garbage cans.	10
8	608	Drusus Rencius looked at me.	10
8	626	Drusus Rencius went to the window, listening.	10
8	630	"War," said Drusus Rencius.	10
8	636	Drusus Rencius returned the slave bracelets to his pouch.	10
9	247	"Before you report to your temporary masters," I said, "inform Drusus Rencius that I wish to see him.	10
9	259	I would now await the arrival of Drusus Rencius.	10
10	1	I Have Taken Cognizance in Corcyrus; We are Returning to the Palace Through the darkened street, along the crooked way, Drusus Rencius and I were making our way back to the palace.	10
10	5	"I would prefer," said Drusus Rencius, "that we had kept to the main thoroughfares".	10
10	9	"Times are troubled," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	17	"Many merchants have left the city," said Drusus Rencius, "taking their goods with them".	10
10	23	"Private citizens, too, many of them," said Drusus Rencius, "their goods on their back, have taken their leave of the city".	10
10	25	"Why can they not be brave like the others?" "Wait!" said Drusus Rencius, stopping.	10
10	31	The sword of Drusus Rencius left its sheath.	10
10	38	"Tal," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	45	"Do not approach," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	49	"No," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	50	I suddenly cried out, seized from the side, and I saw Drusus Rencius, the torch flung to the side, lunge toward the man who had been in the center of the first two.	10
10	67	"They are gone," I heard Drusus Rencius say.	10
10	71	"There you are," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	73	Then, feeling about my head, Drusus Rencius undid the strap that held my gag and hood in place.	10
10	89	"They are gone now," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	173	"I can name seven," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	178	"I think it will be safer to move silently in the darkness," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	180	"Please follow me, a bit behind," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	195	How did I know how Drusus Rencius would carry a woman, particularly a woman such as I sensed I might be.	10
10	197	"It would be better for you to walk," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	200	"Most of the guardsmen," said Drusus Rencius, "have been sent to the west, to the front".	10
10	202	"The forces of Ar will be difficult to hold," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	204	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
10	212	I did know that Drusus Rencius had once been of that city.	10
10	215	"Our forces will be victorious," I assured Drusus Rencius.	10
11	18	"Because I did not inform Ligurious that you had had Drusus Rencius summoned tonight to your quarters".	10
11	22	It had been I, I recalled, in the prosecution of my own plans, and in my desire for secrecy, who had suggested to Susan that the summoning of Drusus Rencius to my quarters need not be made known to Ligurious.	10
11	30	He, with guardsmen, with lanterns, had met Drusus Rencius and I at the small postern gate in the east wall of the palace grounds, that through which we had returned.	10
11	31	Drusus Rencius had been detained there, and I had been hurried to my quarters.	10
11	47	Had he not, with guards, met Drusus Rencius and I at the postern gate in the east wall? "It can be dangerous in the city," he said, "especially in these times, and at night".	10
11	65	"I will call Drusus Rencius!" I cried.	10
13	84	"Drusus Rencius, Captain of Ar, on detached service to the forces of Argentum," said Miles of Argentum.	10
13	92	Drusus Rencius handed his helmet to a soldier and climbed then to the height of the throne.	10
13	101	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
13	103	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
13	105	"She is Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius.	10
13	107	Drusus Rencius released me, and turned about, and, descending from the dais and making his way through the crowd, left.	10
13	143	The uniforms the men had worn were not unlike that in which I had just seen Drusus Rencius, and not unlike those of certain others about the dais, soldiers.	10
16	282	I remembered this name from the time that Drusus Rencius had taken me to the house of Kliomenes in Corcyrus.	10
16	285	Too, I recalled that both Publius and Drusus Rencius had thought that it would be a good name for me.	10
16	293	What sport then, I thought, must Drusus Rencius have had of me in Corcyrus! What a clever joke he had played upon me, the beast! Was that not a pleasant vengeance to take upon she who had so frequently discomfited him, she whom he then believed to be proud Sheila, the arrogant tatrix of Corcyrus? I ...	10
18	52	The name was originally given to me, I recalled, by Drusus Rencius, put upon me as a part of my disguise, and for the purposes of my licensing, in the house of Kliomenes.	10
24	102	I recalled that Drusus Rencius had thought I might go for something between fifteen and twenty tarsks.	10
26	409	This had been in the house of Kliomenes, when I had been taken on a tour there long ago by Drusus Rencius.	10
26	436	A silver tarsk! I wished Drusus Rencius had heard that! He had thought I would only bring fifteen or twenty copper tarsks! And I was not even trained! "You did very well, Tiffany," said Aemilianus.	10
29	303	Even Drusus Rencius, perhaps, or Miles of Argentum, too, men who had actually seen me, I thought, might not recognize me now.	10
30	562	Surely Susan had believed it, and Drusus Rencius, and many others.	10
30	590	"A slave," said Drusus Rencius, dryly, shrugging.	10
30	591	I suspected then that Drusus Rencius had seen me in the crowd but had not drawn me to the attention of Miles of Argentum.	10
30	605	I was confident now that Drusus Rencius recognized me.	10
30	614	I now realized that whatever might be the feelings of Drusus Rencius toward me I was now a slave to him.	10
30	615	Once I had boasted to Drusus Rencius that I knew well how to torture a man.	10
30	629	"No," said Drusus Rencius.	10
30	642	"I think," he said to Drusus Rencius, "this may be Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus".	10
30	643	"Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius, "has been captured".	10
30	645	Drusus Rencius was silent.	10
32	78	Drusus Rencius, for example, has come here from Ar.	10
32	93	He will identify you as the true Tatrix, for he knows you as such, with the same conviction as Drusus Rencius, and others.	10
32	231	I was drawn from the sack by Drusus Rencius.	10
32	233	Drusus Rencius removed my bonds and, lastly, my gag.	10
32	238	I reached out, timidly, to touch Drusus Rencius.	10
32	255	"Hassan, I am sure," said Drusus Rencius, "can take care of himself".	10
32	259	"I believe this is yours," said Drusus Rencius, lifting the skimpy tunic which, doubtless but shortly before, he had removed from Sheila, probably binding and gagging her.	10
32	293	When I was exhibited before him in this fashion it was my hope that Drusus Rencius would like what he saw.	10
32	303	I wanted then, yes, to be claimed by the whip of Drusus Rencius, to gladly accept the pain, in tears, and to rejoice, bound or chained, that I had been found attractive enough to be so clearly and absolutely claimed.	10
32	309	"What is wrong?" asked Drusus Rencius.	10
32	311	I loved Drusus Rencius.	10
32	313	I am your slave, Drusus Rencius, I thought.	10
32	315	Want me, want me, Drusus Rencius, I begged in my heart.	10
32	316	How I resolved to present whatever bit of beauty I might have shamelessly to the perusal of Drusus Rencius at the banquet.	10
33	7	Miles of Argentum was there, and Drusus Rencius, and Ligurious.	10
33	20	At this table, too, sat Ligurious, Miles of Argentum and Drusus Rencius.	10
33	64	Drusus Rencius was smiling.	10
33	146	"There," cried Ligurious in triumph, "that is the true Sheila, the true Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "Do you not think you should examine her somewhat more closely?" asked Drusus Rencius.	10
33	180	"How do you know?" asked Drusus Rencius, rising to his feet.	10
33	185	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	191	"My thanks, Ubar," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	193	"That is no friendship, beloved Miles," said Drusus Rencius, "which can be jeopardized by truth".	10
33	197	That is she whom I had locked in the golden cage!" "I do not dispute that," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	199	"No," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	205	Drusus Rencius clenched his fists.	10
33	223	"As this girl is the property of Miles of Argentum," said Claudius to Drusus Rencius, "you may move that her testimony be discounted or be retaken, under torture".	10
33	225	Drusus Rencius looked across the room to Miles of Argentum.	10
33	230	"Well done, Drusus Rencius," said a man, admiringly.	10
33	234	"I do not ask that her testimony be discounted or withdrawn," said Drusus Rencius, "only that it be clearly understood".	10
33	236	"Susan," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	243	"And," said Drusus Rencius, "that a man who is a wrathful master to one woman may be little better than the obsequious pet of another".	10
33	245	"You know that this is the woman whom you served, Susan," said Drusus Rencius, indicating me, "for you are familiar with her, and have no difficulty in recognizing her.	10
33	308	"Slave!" snarled Drusus Rencius, looking angrily at me.	10
33	313	"He, too," said Drusus Rencius, "could have been mistaken in this matter!" There was some laughter from some of the members of the high council, and from some of the others about the tables.	10
33	324	"Drusus Rencius," said Miles.	10
33	325	"I?" cried Drusus Rencius.	10
33	330	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	332	"I was assigned the post of guarding one whom I at that time thought was Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	342	"Is the woman whom you believed to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and whom you testified in Corcyrus was the Tatrix, before the very throne itself, in this room?" Drusus Rencius was silent.	10
33	345	"How did you know of this?" asked Drusus Rencius.	10
33	353	As Miles of Argentum knows, I am the friend of Drusus Rencius.	10
33	355	"You can deny, of course," said Miles of Argentum to Drusus Rencius, "that she whom you took to the house of Kliomenes was the same woman you were guarding as the putative Tatrix.	10
33	358	Drusus Rencius was silent.	10
33	360	"We do not require the testimony of Drusus Rencius in this matter," said Claudius.	10
33	361	"I do not refuse to testify," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	364	"Is she whom you believed to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, she whom you identified as the Tatrix in Corcyrus itself, before the very throne of Corcyrus, in this room?" "Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	366	Drusus Rencius pointed to me.	10
33	370	"In making this identification," said Drusus Rencius, "I do no more than acknowledge that I was once the dupe of Ligurious.	10
33	372	"By the love I bear you, and by the love you bear me," said Drusus Rencius to Miles, "hear me out.	10
33	375	What sort of evidence would you wish? How do we know, for example, that you are really Drusus Rencius, a captain from Ar? Or that I am Miles, a general from Argentum? Or that he is Ligurious, who was the first minister in Corcyrus? How do we know anyone in this room is who we think? Perhaps we are a...	10
33	390	She accepted herself as that! She did not deny it or dispute it! Why not? Because that is who she was!" "No!" cried Drusus Rencius.	10
33	392	"I do not know," cried Drusus Rencius.	10
33	394	"I know her," said Drusus Rencius, angrily.	10
33	397	Such things are not in her!" "Has the good captain from Ar," inquired Miles, "permitted the glances, the smiles, the curvaceous interests of a woman to sway his judgment?" "No," said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	399	"No!" said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	401	"No!" said Drusus Rencius.	10
33	402	I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
33	408	Drusus Rencius turned angrily away.	10
33	411	Drusus Rencius spun about.	10
33	507	I also saw there garments which looked like those I had worn to the song drama with Drusus Rencius, and had worn later with him on the walls of Corcyrus.	10
33	518	These garments, Ligurious had informed me in the throne room of Argentum, before placing me in the golden sack, from which I had been rescued by Drusus Rencius, had been smuggled out of Corcyrus.	10
33	549	I saw Drusus Rencius looking at me with scorn.	10
33	588	Doubtless Drusus Rencius, who had prevented him from reaching the palanquin, remembered him well, for his courage and his opposition to the rule of the Tatrix.	10
33	660	But this, of course, I told myself, fearfully, must be concealed from Drusus Rencius! I must never let him learn that I was in my heart no more than a master's slave! How he would despise me if he knew me as no more than a slave, a girl suitable for collars and auction blocks, one appropriately to b...	10
33	1011	"And there were two of you! There was another, as well, one who must have had influence, one who must have been trusted, one who must have been more highly placed!" I saw Drusus Rencius looking at me.	10
33	1038	"Nothing," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	4	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	10	"I had thought, then, at least, that she was different," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	18	"You are right," had said Drusus Rencius to Publius.	10
35	27	"You see," said Publius, "is it not as I told you?" "Yes," granted Drusus Rencius, good-naturedly.	10
35	29	How unworthy I was of Drusus Rencius! "May I withdraw, Masters?" I asked.	10
35	34	This matter went back to the time when I was a free woman, and had been taken for a tour to the house of Kliomenes by Drusus Rencius.	10
35	36	Drusus Rencius had accepted it.	10
35	38	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	40	Drusus Rencius and Publius did not have slaves of their own in Argentum.	10
35	46	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	60	I had little doubt that Drusus Rencius, of Ar, and Publius, at least once of Ar, would prefer those of their own city.	10
35	61	Susan, I suspected, knowing my feelings for Drusus Rencius, was trying to be kind, giving me the liqueur that he was almost certain to choose.	10
35	89	"Yes," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	92	"Those of Turia are the best," he said to Drusus Rencius, smiling, almost apologetically.	10
35	93	"Perhaps," smiled Drusus Rencius, "but I prefer those of Ar".	10
35	95	"I have never confused objectivity with municipal pride," responded Drusus Rencius.	10
35	98	"That is true," laughed Drusus Rencius.	10
35	104	He had won it from Drusus Rencius.	10
35	105	"Look at me, Slave," said Drusus Rencius.	10
35	132	Drusus Rencius had made a wager.	10
36	1	In the Quarters of my Master I was thrust, laughing and stumbling, down the hall before Drusus Rencius.	10
36	55	The voice was that of Drusus Rencius.	10
36	109	"I did see him last night," said Drusus Rencius.	10
36	114	Last night, after I had served Publius and Drusus Rencius, I had been ordered to the couch of Miles of Argentum.	10
36	119	Apparently it had been later the same night, perhaps in the neighborhood of the Twentieth Ahn, when Drusus Rencius had seen him.	10
36	122	Drusus Rencius had probably been informed that he might find me here.	10
36	123	"You seem bitter," said Drusus Rencius.	10
36	129	"Neither," said Drusus Rencius, "or, perhaps, in a sense, both, and that of other slaveries, as well".	10
36	136	I feared for Drusus Rencius.	10
36	146	* * * * I lay now naked, save for my collar, on the tiles of the quarters of Drusus Rencius, in the palace at Argentum.	10
36	150	I scrambled to my knees and looked up at my master, Drusus Rencius, of Ar.	10
36	153	I had then preceded him to his quarters, moving swiftly, but scarcely swiftly enough, it seemed, from the point of view of Drusus Rencius, striding fiercely behind me, like some impatient, grumbling larl.	10
36	236	I had seen to it, many times, that passions would flash and flame in Drusus Rencius, which I would then, haughtily, refuse to satisfy.	10
36	237	"But those days are gone, aren't they?" said Drusus Rencius.	10
36	381	I loved Drusus Rencius.	10
36	390	"Oh," I said, "I forgot! I am no longer Sheila, am I? My collar has been changed!" I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
36	492	In the morning I kissed his feet in gratitude!" "Slave, slave!" snarled Drusus Rencius.	10
36	592	I feared now that perhaps Drusus Rencius had bought me primarily for the purposes of vengeance.	10
36	665	The presence in the room of a curule chair designated the room, in effect, as one to be appropriately occupied by an individual of some importance, or official standing, which assuredly was Drusus Rencius, my master.	10
36	671	How unworthy I was to wear a collar of Gor, to have my limbs locked in her weighty, obdurate shackles! Yet, to my joy, I had learned that I was one who might not be found unfitting for the slave markets of this world! Had I not seen this in the eyes of masters? Had I not learned it in my helplessnes...	10
36	720	"It was done to me by Drusus Rencius, of Ar, my master".	10
36	802	I looked at Drusus Rencius.	10
36	981	"Turn, Tatrix," said Drusus Rencius.	10
36	990	This pleased Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1010	I then faced Drusus Rencius, face-stripped.	10
36	1014	Drusus Rencius nodded.	10
36	1095	Drusus Rencius then drew on the strap and my bound wrists were drawn up, above my head.	10
36	1125	Drusus Rencius did not much vary the locus of the impact nor the timing.	10
36	1193	I tried to feel resentment toward Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1296	Who but a slave might bear such a name? Was it not exciting? Did it not hint of the steel of slave bracelets, the smell of thongs, held against the face, the clash of bangles, the rustle of silk? What a delightful joke had Drusus Rencius played upon me, the beast, when he had thought me to be the Ta...	10
36	1302	It almost turned me inside out with love for Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1306	In his hand Drusus Rencius held the goblet of wine.	10
36	1430	It was hard for me to keep my hands off Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1605	"It says, 'I belong to Drusus Rencius, of Ar.	10
36	1612	* * * * I lay on one elbow, regarding Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1628	Only my face had been unveiled! Had he seen me naked he might have raised his estimate! Too, suppose he had seen me in a posture of submission or had had me writhe at his feet in slave chains! Suppose he had put me through detailed and methodical slave paces, or had had me bring him the whip in my t...	10
36	1640	He might then be tempted to pay at least a little more, might he not, to obtain her?" "I suppose so," said Drusus Rencius, irritatedly.	10
36	1647	"What an idiot," said Drusus Rencius, darkly.	10
36	1650	"I paid more than fifteen silver tarsks for you," said Drusus Rencius.	10
36	1653	The face of Drusus Rencius was black with rage.	10
