20 53 In my hand I held the ring of red metal, the ring that bore the crest of Cabot, the gift of my father.

10
1 123 An object fell from the envelope, a ring of red metal bearing the simple crest "C".
Details
10
1 145 Carry on your person the ring of red metal, and bring me, if you would, a handful of our green earth.
Details
10
1 163 Bending down, I retrieved the ring.
Details
10
1 184 The thought came to me that the ring, which I had dropped in my pocket, might similarly burst into flame, but, unaccountably perhaps, I doubted it.
Details
10
1 185 There might be a point in someone's destroying the letter, but presumably there would be little point or no point in destroying the ring.
Details
10
1 186 Why should it have been sent if not to have been kept? Besides, I had been warned about the letter—a warning I had foolishly neglected—but had been asked to carry the ring.
Details
10
2 45 I saw that the ring of red metal, with the crest of a "C," had been placed on the second finger of my right hand.

4 15 The tarn is guided by virtue of a throat strap, to which are attached, normally, six leather streamers, or reins, which are fixed in a metal ring on the forward portion of the saddle.
Details
10
4 16 The reins are of different colors, but one learns them by ring position and not color.
Details
10
4 17 Each of the reins attaches to a small ring on the throat strap, and the rings are spaced evenly.
Details
10
4 19 One draws on the streamer, or rein, which is attached to the ring most nearly approximating the direction in which one wishes to go.
Details
10
4 20 For example, to land or lose altitude, one uses the four-strap which exerts pressure on the four-ring, which is located beneath the throat of the tarn.
Details
10
4 21 To rise into flight, or gain altitude, one draws on the one-strap, which exerts pressure on the one-ring, which is located on the back of the tarn's neck.
Details
10
4 22 The throat-strap rings, corresponding to the position of the reins on the main saddle-ring, are numbered in a clockwise fashion.
Details
10
4 30 I couldn't breathe for a minute, but clung, frightened and thrilled, to the saddle-ring, my hand wrapped in the one-strap.
Details
10
4 40 I released the reins, letting them hang on the saddle-ring, which is the signal for a constant and straight flight, no pressure on the throat strap.
Details
10
6 36 I leaped upward and seized the saddle-ring, inadvertently dislodging the mounting ladder.
Details
10
6 51 Even after I had drawn her to the saddle before me and belted her securely to the saddle-ring, I had to force her fingers from the rung of the mounting ladder.
Details
10
8 146 "The ring," she said, pointing to the red metal band that encircled the second finger of my right hand.
Details
10
10 20 After all, what if there was no such city? Mintar looked at the ring of mounted spearmen encircling me.

10 90 "I have a spare ankle ring," he said, and took Talena by the arm, thrusting her inside the wagon.

15 66 Whereas the military camp is usually laid out in a set of concentric squares, reflecting the fourfold principle of military organization customary on Gor, the merchant camp is laid out in concentric circles, the guards' tents occupying the outermost ring, the craftsmen's, strap-masters', attendants'...
Details
10
15 68 I was searching for Kazrak's tent, which lay in the outer ring near the tharlarion corrals.
Details
10
15 70 I dropped the ring that I wore, with the crest of Cabot, to his sleeping mat.
Details
10
15 78 No sooner had he done so than he fell to his knees on the mat and grasped the ring.
Details
10
15 113 Before I left Kazrak's tent, I placed the ring of red metal, with the crest of Cabot, in my pouch.
Details
10
15 114 Hitherto I had worn the ring almost arrogantly, but now it seemed to me that discretion, to alter a saying, was the better part of pride.
Details
10
18 150 I heard someone shout, a weird, terrified cry, "Tarns!" An alarm bar, a hollow metal tube struck by hammers, began to ring in frenzy.
Details
10
20 54 I cut my hand with the ring, to make myself bleed, and I laughed with joy as I felt the pain and saw the blood.
Details
10
20 55 The ring was real, and I was awake, and there was a Counter-Earth, and the girl, Talena.

13 71 Soon the stands themselves seemed to ring with the cry.

10
14 48 I wanted to see the ankle ring the bird wore.

14 161 These pass from the throat strap to the main saddle ring, which is fixed on the saddle.

10
16 106 I was chained to the ankle ring of one of the tarns.

16 124 The uninjured warrior had now climbed to the saddle of the tarn, to whose ankle ring I lay helplessly chained.

22 216 I wondered on how many nights free women, bound captives, had been thrown to his feet to be assessed and purchased, how many free women had in his camp exchanged their rich garments for a camisk and an ankle ring on his chain.

25 10 His sword too was free of its sheath and we rushed on one another like larls in the Voltai, our weapons meeting with a sharp, free clash of sound, the trembling brilliant ring of well-tempered blades, each tone ringing in the clear, glittering music of swordplay.
Details
10
25 66 The reins of the tarn were fixed to a ring in the front of the basket.
Details
10

6 96 A heavy slave ring was set in the bottom of the couch to which I might have, had I pleased, chained her.
Details
10
7 58 I wondered how many men had fallen at her feet, how many men she had forced to sleep at the foot of the great stone couch, in the shadow of the slave ring, while she herself reclined on the pelts and silks of the master.
Details
10
8 150 Thus if one tower failed to report when expected the alarm bars of Ko-ro-ba would soon ring and her tarnsmen would saddle and be aflight.
Details
10
9 3 If she has not pleased her master of late, she may be, of course, as a disciplinary measure, simply chained nude to the slave ring in the bottom of the couch, sans both blanket and mat.
Details
10
9 6 According to the Gorean way of looking at things a taste of the slave ring is thought to be occasionally beneficial to all women, even the exalted Free Companions.
Details
10
9 7 Thus when she has been irritable or otherwise troublesome even a Free Companion may find herself at the foot of the couch looking forward to a pleasant night on the stones, stripped, with neither mat nor blanket, chained to a slave ring precisely as though she were a lowly slave girl.
Details
10
9 9 Should she be tempted to forget this basic fact of Gorean life the slave ring set in the bottom of each Gorean couch is there to refresh her memory.
Details
10
9 15 Yet with all due respect and regard for the most astounding and marvelous sex, I suspect that, perhaps partly because of my Gorean training, it is true that a touch of the slave ring is occasionally beneficial.

10
9 204 Vika crouched terrified on the slave mat at the foot of the couch, in the very shadow of the slave ring.

25 59 The second chain, that which I had first seen, fastened the Sirik itself, of course, to the slave ring, and, indeed, by the left ankle ring, as I had supposed.
Details
10
5 6 These women were unscarred, but like the bosk themselves, each wore a nose ring.
Details
10
5 25 The Turian collar lies loosely on the girl, a round ring; it fits so loosely that, when grasped in a man's fist, the girl can turn within it; the common Gorean collar, on the other hand, is a flat, snugly fitting steel band.
Details
10
5 77 Like the other women of the Wagons she wore no veil and, like them, fixed in her nose was the tiny, fine ring that proclaimed her people.
Details
10
8 87 Kamchak, that night, chained Elizabeth Cardwell in his wagon, rather than beneath it to the wheel, running a short length of chain from a slave ring set in the floor of the wagon box to the collar of her Sirik.
Details
10
8 141 Moreover, he did not brand her, nor fix in her nose the tiny golden ring of the Tuchuk women, nor did he even, incomprehensibly, put her in the Turian collar.
Details
10
8 144 She did not sew well and it amused me to hear her cursing at the side of the wagon, bound now only by a collar and chain to the slave ring, time after time sticking the bone needle into her fingers as it emerged through the hide, or fouling the leather-threaded stitches, which would either be too ti...
Details
10
8 224 She was a very exciting, vital, proud girl and the tiny golden nose ring, against her brownish skin, with her flashing dark eyes, did not detract from her considerable but rather insolent beauty.
Details
10
8 270 Elizabeth Cardwell, at least until now, had escaped, as Tuka had not, the brand, the nose ring and collar.
Details
10
8 305 On the other hand, I knew, in this sport no time would be taken for such matters; in a few heartbeats of the kaiila the girl's wrists and ankles would be lashed together and she would be, without ceremony, slung over the pommel of the saddle, it the stake, her body the ring.
Details
10
8 410 Then, to my surprise, she looked at me boldly, though wearing the Turian collar; though she wore the nose ring; though she were only a branded slave clad Kajir.
Details
10
8 423 "But if so?" "Then," said she, "I will give you a golden ring and a silver cup".
Details
10
8 428 "I do not want your golden ring and silver cup," I said.

9 93 Among the Wagons, clad in a brief bit of cord and leather, branded, wearing nose ring and Turian collar, could be found many of the beauties of Turia.

10
9 353 Like Hereena, of course, she wore the tiny golden nose ring.
Details
10
9 415 But it was a round metal ring, a Turian collar, the collar of a slave.
Details
10
10 117 I think it was then, perhaps the first time since her first coming to the Wagon Peoples, that she fully understood her plight—for Kamchak had, on the whole, been kind to her—he had not put the Tuchuk ring in her nose, nor had he clothed her Kajir, nor put the brand of the bosk horns on...
Details
10
10 553 Kamras then began to chase Kamchak about the ring of sand.
Details
10
10 566 For more than a minute, while I scarcely dared to breathe and there was silence all about save for the ring of steel, I watched Kamchak stand there, heavy in his boots, his head seeming almost to sit on his shoulders, his body hardly moving save for the swiftness of a wrist and the turn of a hand.
Details
10
11 148 "You will see," said Kamchak, "that she wears the pelt of a larl—that she is not collared, that she does not wear the nose ring, that she does not wear the brand".
Details
10
11 151 "Do you wonder, Little Aphris," asked Kamchak, "why the barbarian—though slave—is not clad Kajir, why she does not wear ring, brand and collar?" "Why?" asked Aphris, frightened.
Details
10
12 247 The girl had neither been branded nor had the Tuchuk nose ring been affixed.
Details
10
12 275 I locked the wrist ring about her wrist.
Details
10
12 276 Then I took her left ankle in my hand and lifted it a bit, slipping the open ankle ring under it.
Details
10
12 277 Then I pressed the ring shut.

13 186 He bent to his tools, taking up a tiny, open golden ring, a heated metal awl, a pair of pliers.

10
17 105 Some of them, mostly whitish, luminescent ones, had seemed to float nearer, and hovered slightly beneath the surface, in a ring about me, some ten feet away.
Details
10
17 106 I took a step towards the ring and the spheres, doubtless moved by the fluids displaced in my step, seemed to slowly disperse and move away.
Details
10
19 73 About her neck was a thick metal collar to which a heavy iron chain had been fastened; the chain itself was attached to a large iron ring placed in the floor.
Details
10
19 99 Then, startled, as she moved her head a bit, restlessly on the rug, I saw that in her nose was the tiny golden ring of a Tuchuk girl.
Details
10
20 137 As swiftly as I could I then explained to him the guidance apparatus, the main saddle ring and its six straps.
Details
10
21 56 I came to the ring of flat, cleared ground, some hundred feet or so wide, which separates the walled compound of buildings which constitutes the House of Saphrar of Turia from all the surrounding structures.
Details
10
24 232 I supposed the little wench Hereena would be waiting for him, probably collared and chained to the slave ring.
Details
10
25 8 I could see a chain running across the rug from the slave ring to the sheet, beneath which it disappeared.
Details
10
25 43 I gathered the girl was in Sirik, the chain on the floor attached to the slave ring doubtless running to one of the twin ankle rings, probably to that on her left ankle.
Details
10
25 86 In her nose, as I had suspected, there glinted the tiny, fine golden ring of the Tuchuk woman.
Details
10
25 88 I held her lovely head with its soft dark hair in my hands, gazing on her face, her forehead, her dark, soft eyes, with tears, the marvelous, trembling mouth, and set in her fine nose, delicate and lovely, the tiny golden ring.
Details
10
25 121 Elizabeth looked up, the tiny ring glinting in the light of the fire bowl.
Details
10
25 130 "The ring may be removed," I said.
Details
10
25 133 "I do not suppose it would do to tell you," I remarked, "but actually the ring is rather attractive".
Details
10
25 162 About her throat was the Turian collar with its chain, attached to slave bracelets and ankle rings, one of the latter attached to the chain running to the slave ring.
Details
10
25 167 Lock by lock, fumbling a bit, I removed her chains, and threw the Sirik and ankle chain to the side of the wagon, under the slave ring.
Details
10
25 266 My eye glanced at the slave chains under the slave ring.
Details
10
25 321 I wondered why it was that Kamchak had put the ring on this girl, had had her branded and collared and clad Kajir—was it truly because she had angered him, running from the wagon that one time—or for another reason—and why had he subjected her, cruelly perhaps, in my presence to...
Details
10
25 330 She was seeing how the nose ring might be displayed to most advantage.
Details
10
25 617 How every bit of her seemed alive with challenge! Her eyes, her stance, the sound of her voice! I saw the tiny nose ring, barbaric, glinting in the light of the fire bowl.
Details
10
25 619 I saw on her lovely throat the harsh ring of Turian steel, gleaming and locked, so contrasting with, so barbarically accentuating the incredible softness of her beauty, the tormenting vulnerability of it.
Details
10
25 698 I took the nose ring between my thumb and forefinger and gave it a little pull.
Details
10
25 754 But I only kissed her, holding her, my lips moving to the back of her leg, low where it joins the foot, where an ankle ring would be locked.
Details
10
25 876 I took her nose ring between my thumb and forefinger.
Details
10
25 878 I lifted her head from the rug by the ring and her eyes smarted.
Details
10
25 880 I tweaked the nose ring, and tears sprang into her eyes.
Details
10
25 889 "Oh!" she cried, as I gave the ring a playful tug.
Details
10
26 560 Again we laughed and, suddenly, we urged the kaiila forward in great bounding strides, eager to reach the wagons, each of us, for waiting in these wagons were three girls, desirable, marvelous, ours, Hereena, she who had been of the First Wagon, the slave of Harold, her master; Aphris of Turia, almo...

28 16 Elizabeth then tied a thong in Tuka's nose ring and dragged her to the creek, where she might find a switch.
Details
10
28 17 When she found a suitable implement, of proper length and flexibility, of appropriate diameter and suppleness, she then secured Tuka by nose ring and thong to the exposed root of a small but sturdy bush, and thrashed her soundly.
Details
10
28 18 Following this, she untied the thong from the root and permitted the girl, thong still streaming from her nose ring, wrists still bound behind her, to run for her master's wagon, but pursued her each foot of the way like a hunting sleen, administering innumerable stinging incitements to greater and ...

12 4 The other bird, which had buffeted it against the edge of the ring, spun awkwardly through, turned in the air, and under the savage command of its control straps, and responding to a yellow flash of the tarn goad, regained its control and sped toward the next ring.

12 34 The rider was wheeling the bird, trying to bring it under control, and returning to the ring.

12 86 I heard the judge's bar ring three times and I could now see the tarns coming forth.

13 325 Suddenly with a snap of its wings I could hear more than two hundred yards away the tarn exploded from the perch, Mip low on its back, and streaked toward the first "ring," the first of three huge metal rectangles, before the round "rings" mounted at the corners and at the end of the dividing wall.

18 316 Some startled slaves leaped up, each chained by one ankle to her ring; but most slept, drunk; one or two, too drunk to notice me, were sitting against the wall, their left ankles chained to their slave rings, a bottle of Ka-la-na in their grasp, their hair falling forward.

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...

22 130 This time, on the center side ring, a nonfaction tarn was forced into the padded bar by a sudden swerve of Menicius of Port Kar, riding for the Yellows.
Details
10
22 132 I noted that Mip had been following Menicius, and when Menicius had swerved Mip had taken advantage of the opening thus presented and, like a knife, had plunged for the heart of the ring.

22 133 The bird that had struck the ring was tumbling stunned into the net.

22 432 The bird, beautiful, fierce, talons lifted, wings beating, hanging almost motionless before the ring, faced us.

22 433 My tarn struck him like a screaming saber of black lightning flashing through the ring.

10
22 443 I heard a scream of horror from behind us as one rider, pressing another, forced him against the side of the edged ring.
Details
10
22 444 The wind racing against me, I shuddered, for striking such a ring edge, at the speed of the racing tarn, might well cut a man or bird in two.

10
22 454 To my chagrin he met the move and again I passed through a ring following him.

10
22 490 Then, to my horror, I saw that both the rider for the Reds and he for the Greens had wheeled their tarns and stood ready at the left center ring to block my passage.

22 495 My tarn struck the other two and in a moment, tarn goads flashing, talons clutching, birds screaming and biting, we found ourselves as in a clenched, winged fist of fury, beating and turning before the left center ring.

22 502 My tarn was locked, talon to talon, with a nonfaction bird; each was tearing at the other; the tarn goad of the rider struck me, almost blinding me with pain; for an instant my consciousness seemed nothing but a blinding shower of yellow, fiery needles; his tarn struck for me and I beat its beak awa...

22 510 "On!" Ubar of the Skies, like black fire, burned past one ring and another.

10
22 561 "Faster! Har-ta! Faster! Faster!" Then, approaching the last of the left side rings, Ubar of the Skies, striking for the heart of the ring, burst between the startled Red and Menicius, who led him by perhaps four yards.

22 565 With a curse he jerked savagely at the control straps of Quarrel and that fine bird instantaneously responded and together Quarrel and Ubar of the Skies passed through the final ring; with a snap of his great wings Ubar of the Skies struck the winner's perch, seized it in his steel-shod talons and t...
