"Tarsk!" "Do you think you could learn to serve paga?" I asked. |
4 |
| 15 | 42 |
"Should I put you in a public paga tavern," I said, "doubtless hundreds of these would crowd its doors, that they might be served by one once destined to be a Ubara in Cos". |
4 |
| 15 | 103 |
I rose to my feet and lifted my goblet of paga, acknowledging the cries of my retainers. |
4 |
| 15 | 109 |
I threw down more paga. |
4 |
| 15 | 243 |
Now, at my victory feast, I drank more paga. |
4 |
| 15 | 252 |
I thrust out the silver paga goblet, studded with rubies, and Telima, standing beside my thronelike chair, filled it. |
4 |
| 15 | 260 |
I sat back on the great chair, paga goblet in hand, surveying the room. |
4 |
| 15 | 267 |
Poor, scrawny, plain Luma, thought I, in her tunic of scribe's cloth, and collar! What a poor excuse for a paga slave she had been! Yet she had a brilliant mind for the accounts and business of a great house, and had much increased my fortunes. |
4 |

"More paga," said I, putting out the goblet. |
4 |
| 15 | 273 |

4 |
| 15 | 454 |
"I will serve you paga," said Sandra. |
4 |
| 15 | 455 |

4 |
| 15 | 465 |
"Paga?" I asked. |
4 |
| 15 | 474 |
I held out the paga goblet, and she refilled it. |
4 |

4 |
| 15 | 615 |

When the paga slaves saw them simply as what they would then be, new girls, helpless, frightened, intimidated, raw girls, fresh to the delights and degradations of slavery, they would no longer fear them, but scorn them, properly, as far inferior to themselves. |
4 |
| 7 | 103 |
And the new girls would beg the paga slaves to impart to them something of their skills, that they might be more pleasing to men. |
4 |
| 7 | 104 |
And then the paga slaves, as the mood struck them, might do so or not. |
4 |

They were doubtless the paga slaves from Laura. |
4 |

The paga slaves were there. |

In the pouring of paga, I knew, they would have heard much. |

He had been captured there, when the camp had fallen, and, according to the report of one of the paga slaves, had been taken into the forest. |
4 |

I had then returned to where I had left the four paga slaves, bound. |
4 |
| 14 | 133 |
Tana, the paga slave in Lydius, wore it. |
4 |
| 14 | 153 |
My girls, the four paga slaves, I had left behind me, more than a pasang from this place, tied, gagged, in a slave star. |
4 |
| 15 | 34 |
Though in the paga tavern she had been much used, and doubtless well, I could see that she had never, totally, yielded herself to a man. |
4 |
| 15 | 111 |
That night I hunted and felled a tabuk, which kill I brought back to my camp, that my prisoners and the paga slaves, now the keepers of my prisoners, might feed. |
4 |
| 15 | 113 |
I cut pieces of meat from the animal, and gave them to the paga slaves, to thrust into the mouths of the panther girls. |
4 |
| 15 | 124 |
I left my paga slaves, Ilene included, free. |
4 |
| 15 | 140 |
"They are slaves," I said to my paga girls. |
4 |
| 15 | 143 |
I gestured to two of the paga slaves, the first girl, dark-haired, and the second, the blond. |
4 |
| 15 | 147 |
I looked at the redhead, the paga slave. |
4 |
| 15 | 164 |
She was outraged to see a paga slave clad in the skins of panther girls. |
4 |
| 15 | 165 |
The dark-haired girl, the paga slave, in the skins of panther girls, leapt to her and seized her by the hair. |
4 |
| 15 | 171 |
If any of the prisoners had been insubordinate, or difficult in any way, the paga slaves had been instructed to use it on them. |
4 |
| 15 | 176 |
The paga slaves, with the exception of Ilene, who perhaps feared the switch might be used on her, laughed. |
4 |
| 15 | 177 |
I went to the three paga slaves clad in the skins of panther girls. |
4 |
| 15 | 193 |
"You two," I told the other two paga slaves, the dark-haired girl and the blond one, "come with me". |
4 |
| 15 | 211 |
I would locate them, individually, and then rendezvous with my two accompanying paga slaves. |
4 |
| 15 | 212 |
The paga slaves, in the skins of panther girls, in the darkness, would approach one of the guards. |
4 |
| 15 | 224 |
It was only that, in the darkness, they mistook paga slaves in the skins of panthers for their sisters of the forest, at last returning to the band. |
4 |
| 15 | 339 |
With the aid of the paga slaves, and Ilene, I sorted through, discarding here and saving there, the baggage abandoned at the campsite. |
4 |
| 15 | 354 |
When I had decided what we would and would not take, I, and Ilene, and the paga slaves divided up the burdens. |
4 |
| 15 | 357 |
It did not seem likely to me that it would have been poisoned, but, even if it were, I and the paga slaves would be in little danger from it. |
4 |
| 15 | 481 |
There the dark-haired girl and the blond girl, two of my paga slaves, stripped the new prisoners and I, with Harl rings, part of the freight carried by the panther girls, not speaking, fastened them in the slave chain. |
4 |
| 15 | 497 |
Later, when the moons were high, the paga slaves and I partook of it as well. |
4 |
| 15 | 505 |
I then, with the aid of the paga slaves, covered them with the tarpaulin and pegged it down. |
4 |
| 15 | 557 |
"I then served his customers in his paga tavern". |
4 |
| 15 | 610 |
She stood in brief, diaphanous yellow slave silk, that of the paga slave. |
4 |
| 15 | 788 |
She, though a former paga slave, pulled the skins of panther girls about her body. |
4 |
| 15 | 896 |
The red-haired girl, then, aided by the other two paga slaves, took the panther women to the nearby stream, that they might drink and get water to mix with their slave meal. |
4 |
| 16 | 105 |
Also, to her left and right, moving about, from time to time, were the other two paga slaves, those beside Vinca. |
4 |
| 16 | 137 |
Then Vinca gestured to the two other paga slaves, my girls, in the skins of panthers. |
4 |
| 16 | 215 |
Then the two paga slaves other than Vinca came forward, dragging the carcass of a tabuk. |
4 |
| 16 | 245 |
The bottles of wine, brought by one of the paga slaves, were slung, knotted, about her neck. |
4 |
| 16 | 307 |
Three furs I had brought back to Vinca and the other two paga slaves, that they might be comforted from the hard ground and protected from the cold forest nights. |
4 |
| 17 | 29 |
I saw two slaves dragging another girl by, under the supervision of the dark-haired paga slave. |
4 |
| 17 | 69 |
The paga slaves and Ilene brought their work slaves back to the coffle. |
4 |
| 18 | 41 |
And in the hold of the Tesephone were numbers of my men, captured at the camp on the Laurius River, due to the treachery of a tavern keeper of Laura, by name, Hesius, and four paga slaves. |
4 |
| 18 | 482 |
On the other hand, that night, one of the gods, curious, or perhaps careless, or perhaps driven from the hall and angry, threw down upon the ground his own great ax, and upon this ax he poured paga and his own blood, and the ax laughed and leaped up, and ran away. |
4 |
| 21 | 108 |
"Similarly," said Thurnock, "took she the key from the mate of the Rhoda and, when the ships were tied together, and the men of the Rhoda and Tesephone were drunk with her body and the vessels of paga she poured them, she brought it to us. |
4 |
| 21 | 113 |
Their heads, too, sore from the paga, will most likely cause them some displeasure". |
4 |
| 21 | 159 |
At that point she had, too, encountered Vinca, the two paga slaves, Ilene, and my own slave chain of panther women. |
4 |
| 21 | 161 |
