10 397 The woman's name was Sumomo, and Tajima, I would later learn, was interested in her contract, which he could not afford.
Details
10
10 715 "The whip will teach her, and quickly," said Tajima, with, oddly, a glance at Sumomo, the contract woman who was on the right, as one would look to the dais.
Details
10
14 140 "To be sure," I said, "perhaps you are merely sneaking off for a secret rendezvous with the lovely Sumomo".
Details
10
14 158 "And would not Sumomo," I asked, "look pretty as such a slave beast?" "Perhaps," he said.
Details
10
14 220 "Sumomo?" he asked.
Details
10
18 75 "Are you interested in Sumomo?" I asked.
Details
10
18 76 "Who is Sumomo?" he asked.
Details
10
18 90 "I would see if Sumomo is alive," said Tajima.
Details
10
18 189 To be sure, neither of the contract women of Lord Nishida, one of whom was Sumomo, who was apparently of interest to Tajima, and the other of whom was Hana, as I later discovered, I was pleased to note, had adopted this practice.
Details
10
18 231 I took them to be Sumomo and Hana.
Details
10
18 239 He approached Sumomo.
Details
10
18 243 He then remained standing, where he was, where he had been rebuffed, looking after Sumomo, who was now with Hana, facing away from him, several feet from him, not far from the smoldering embers of Lord Nishida's collapsed, blackened pavilion.
Details
10
18 278 What man, after all, does not, in his deepest heart, want to own a woman? What could begin to compare with such a property? Perhaps, I thought, he has dreamed of another woman, a different slave, his, helpless at his feet? Would he have the courage, the will, the determination, the kindness, the com...

10
18 286 "I do not think Sumomo understands that," said Pertinax.
Details
10
18 303 Sumomo, I noted, perhaps alerted by Hana, had turned about, to watch Tajima withdraw.
Details
10
18 308 He had been genuinely concerned with the safety and welfare of the contract woman, Sumomo.
Details
10
18 314 To be sure, there was little prospect of this, as Sumomo's contract was held by Lord Nishida.
Details
10
18 315 And doubtless the proud Sumomo was only too well aware of this fact.
Details
10
18 322 "Sumomo belongs in a collar," I said.
Details
10
18 329 I suspected, but did not remark it, that Sumomo's treatment of Tajima might have obscure motivations, motivations more subtle and deeper than a mere scorn for one she might despise as having been extracted from an alien world.
Details
10
18 530 I supposed Tajima had been interested in whether or not Sumomo might serve at such a feast.
Details
10
20 64 I did not think he would have viewed the matter in the same light had the girl been, say, Sumomo.
Details
10
20 65 To be sure, Sumomo was of the Pani, and had the status of a contract woman.
Details
10
20 126 "Suppose it had been Sumomo," I said.
Details
10
24 34 On each side of the table, somewhat behind the table, were two contract women, demurely and tastefully kneeling, in their kimonos, Hana and Sumomo.
Details
10
25 256 I would seek out Tajima, who had not attended the feast, perhaps because of the absence of Sumomo, and other contract women, or perhaps because of the presence of female slaves.
Details
10
25 271 I wondered if he ever thought of the delicate, arrogant Sumomo so.
Details
10
27 23 In one of the wagons trundling past were several contract women, among them Sumomo and Hana, both of whom were under contract, as I understood it, to Lord Nishida.
Details
10
27 28 I speculated that Tajima would not have minded having the lovely, haughty Sumomo at his feet, not as a contract woman, of course, but as something far less, and far more desirable.
Details
10
29 6 I saw Sumomo and Hana, shading their eyes, emerge from the portal on their closed wagon and, standing on its small porch, strain to see what might be the cause of the ebullition.
Details
10
29 59 "How is Sumomo?" asked Tajima.
Details
10
38 514 With him were his guard, several officers, and two contract women, who were doubtless Sumomo and Hana.
Details
10
38 541 Certainly Sumomo and Hana, even though warmly wrapped, seemed miserable, in the background.
Details
10
38 556 Certainly Sumomo and Hana hurried aboard.

16 66 Two contract women, as they are called, Sumomo and Hana, knelt nearby.
Details
10
16 72 The woman, Hana, looked at Sumomo, frightened.
Details
10
16 73 "Lord Nishida," said Sumomo, "was in meditation".
Details
10
16 75 "Lord Nishida was in meditation," said Sumomo.
Details
10
17 76 Lord Nishida had two contract women, as the expression is, at his disposal, Sumomo and Hana.

29 262 "I am Sumomo," she said, "daughter of Yamada, Shogun of the Islands!" "You are no longer Sumomo," I informed her.

10
42 109 Would it not be a triumph for him, a delightful vengeance on Lord Yamada, and a lovely sop to his vanity, to organize similar suppers, even feasts, for his daimyos, officers, and retainers, feasts served by lovely but lowly barbarian slaves, indeed the very same who served the supper of Lord Yamada,...
Details
10
4 134 "—How fares Sumomo?" he asked.
Details
10
4 137 Sumomo was one of the two contract women whose contracts were held by Lord Nishida.
Details
10
4 139 I knew that Tajima was much interested in buying the contract of Sumomo, but it was not within his means.
Details
10
4 140 Sumomo, like Hana, who was somewhat older, was quite beautiful.
Details
10
4 147 That he should be taken with the haughty Sumomo, contract woman of a daimyo, who seemingly despised him, and surely treated him with contempt, seemed anomalous.
Details
10
4 148 I had never seen Sumomo other than in her decorous robes but I suspected that, properly exhibited, she would fetch a good price in a typical market on the continent, say, in Brundisium, Port Kar, Ko-ro-ba, Ar, or such.
Details
10
6 56 I did know Sumomo and Hana, contract women of Lord Nishida, largely from my relationship to Lord Nishida, to whom I usually reported.
Details
10
7 141 "Would you care for tea?" Lady Sumomo, the younger of his two contract women, was nearby, and ready to pour.
Details
10
7 251 "I see Sumomo is about," I said.
Details
10
7 390 Sumomo was kneeling at the low, oval table, with its surface of inlaid woods, on which reposed the service for tea.
Details
10
7 394 Sumomo then, her head down, demurely hurried away, with short steps.
Details
10
8 65 "Tajima, I fear," I said, "has an eye for Sumomo".
Details
10
11 51 "Have you detected him casting sidelong glances at Sumomo?" "Of course not," he said.
Details
10
11 347 "Sumomo," he said.
Details
10
11 371 "We now know that Sumomo is at least involved in these matters".
Details
10
12 39 Her garmenture was not unlike that of the contract women I had seen in Tarncamp, in Shipcamp, in the holding, and elsewhere, such as Hana, Sumomo, Hisui, and others.
Details
10
12 149 Daichi, dour and gaunt, the reader of bones and shells, was in the room, sitting to the left of Lord Temmu, and, surprisingly, behind the shogun and a bit to the left, as well, was a contract woman, standing, Sumomo.
Details
10
12 150 I recalled that Tajima, in his vigil on the outer parapet, had noted Sumomo's presence there, and had witnessed her casting something over the parapet, presumably to be retrieved by some confederate below.
Details
10
12 151 He had surmised, plausibly enough, that Sumomo had acted on behalf of Lord Nishida, whose presence on the parapet, if not indiscreet, would have been likely to attract attention.
Details
10
12 152 I knew little of Sumomo other than the fact that she was the younger, and more beautiful, of two beautiful women whose contracts were held by Lord Nishida.
Details
10
12 164 Sumomo, as nearly as I could tell, was well aware of the distress and torment which she wrought in the breast of the young warrior and this recognition, rather than bringing about its diminishment or abatement, seemed to have spurred her to its augmentation.
Details
10
12 241 What are the babblings of an entranced sibyl, moaning and swaying on her tripod, drunk with fumes, without the enlightening interpretations of astute priests? I then understood better why Sumomo was present.
Details
10
12 281 But Sumomo had already drawn to the side, where three small cups resided on a flat lacquered tray.
Details
10
12 287 Sumomo politely, her head shyly down, held the tray first to Lord Temmu and then to Daichi.
Details
10
12 294 Sumomo, of course, was not a slave, at least per se, but a contract woman.
Details
10
12 301 Too, I had paid careful attention to the small, lovely hands of Sumomo.
Details
10
12 327 "Perhaps Sumomo could light a lamp," I said.
Details
10
12 367 I heard Sumomo laugh, merrily.
Details
10
13 180 And Sumomo's role, I anticipated, was largely that of communicating Daichi's information, available from Lord Temmu, to the enemy, by so simple a contrivance as casting missives over the parapet, to be retrieved below.
Details
10
14 153 Her name is Sumomo.
Details
10
16 55 I recalled that neither Lord Nishida nor Lord Okimoto had been at the meeting with Lord Temmu, that also attended by Daichi and, to my surprise at the time, Sumomo.
Details
10
16 56 I did not now know Sumomo's whereabouts, but had gathered that Lord Yamada, displeased with her, would arrange, by means of the contrived readings of Daichi, that she be brought somewhere into his regions, perhaps to the palace, to be dealt with as a failed spy.
Details
10
17 182 He is returning with my daughter, Sumomo".
Details
10
17 194 "Sumomo has disappointed me," he said.
Details
10
17 204 "Too, Sumomo is light".
Details
10
17 212 Tyrtaios had his back to me as he was graciously assisting the delicate, richly-clad Sumomo from the saddle ladder to the ground.
Details
10
20 11 Sumomo, in beautiful silks, a daughter of the shogun, knelt between Tajima and Pertinax.
Details
10
20 12 I had been startled to see Sumomo at the table.
Details
10
20 20 He had determined to destroy Sumomo as a failed agent.
Details
10
20 22 Sumomo herself seemed utterly unaware that she might be in danger.
Details
10
20 40 I did not doubt but what this was because a free woman was to be present, Sumomo.
Details
10
20 48 "Slaves are despicable," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 50 "Their tunics are scarcely covering," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 52 "You can see so much of their bodies," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 54 "Disgusting," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 66 "So have I," said Tajima, regarding Sumomo.
Details
10
20 67 "It is not necessary, the collars," said Sumomo, uneasily, the fingers of her right hand lightly, thoughtlessly, at her own throat.
Details
10
20 70 "By their skin color," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 73 "I see no marks," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 80 "Accordingly, there is no mistaking a collar slut," said Tajima, pleasantly, regarding Sumomo.
Details
10
20 85 "Many slaves are not collared," said Tajima, looking at Sumomo.
Details
10
20 88 "Still!" protested Sumomo.
Details
10
20 90 Sumomo was silent.
Details
10
20 92 "I see," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 103 "Sumomo," I said, "as you now realize, is a daughter of Lord Yamada.
Details
10
20 118 "What are you talking about?" asked Sumomo, testily.
Details
10
20 121 Lord Yamada is now well aware of the disclosure of Sumomo's secret commission, the detection of her action on the parapet, that the nature of her role in the holding of Lord Temmu has been brought to light, as she apparently is not.
Details
10
20 125 It is his intention to have Sumomo put to death, I gather most unpleasantly".
Details
10
20 134 "Stop babbling in some barbarous tongue," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 141 "I thought," said Tajima, turning to Sumomo, on his right, "you were a contract woman".
Details
10
20 180 Sumomo glanced to the serving slaves, as, head down and deferentially, they attended to the wants of the diners.
Details
10
20 191 "Slave!" snapped Sumomo, to Cecily, who, startled, apprehensive, looked to the guests' table, from where she now knelt, near the serving table.
Details
10
20 192 "Approach," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 193 Uneasily the slave, once Miss Virginia Cecily Jean Pym, approached Sumomo, and knelt before her, her head down.
Details
10
20 197 "Kneel up," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 207 "How are you here?" inquired Sumomo.
Details
10
20 209 "Why?" asked Sumomo.
Details
10
20 211 "I see," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 213 "Have you stolen any food?" inquired Sumomo.
Details
10
20 215 "Have you been fed?" asked Sumomo.
Details
10
20 219 "Perhaps," said Sumomo, "the men will throw you some food later, or feed you".
Details
10
20 221 "Doubtless such as you hope to please your masters," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 223 "Are you a slut?" asked Sumomo.
Details
10
20 226 "Are you a sex-tarsk?" asked Sumomo.
Details
10
20 228 "You are a pretty little sex-tarsk," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 230 I did not think that Sumomo was any larger than Cecily.
Details
10
20 231 "You are not your own," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 240 "What!" cried Sumomo.
Details
10
20 242 "She-tarsk, worthless she-tarsk!" cried Sumomo, leaping to her feet.
Details
10
20 244 "You should be whipped, and whipped!" cried Sumomo.
Details
10
20 253 "You are dismissed," said Sumomo, angrily, returning to her place, kneeling.
Details
10
20 272 "Sumomo," said Lord Yamada.
Details
10
20 281 "Yes," said Sumomo, suddenly, "of course".
Details
10
20 287 I recalled that he had been willing to place Sumomo, in the guise of a contract woman, in the very holding of his mortal enemy, Lord Temmu.
Details
10
20 289 "Please, noble warrior," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 293 "Let us enter the garden, noble warrior," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 297 Indeed, Sumomo, in Tarncamp, in Shipcamp, on the great ship, and in the holding of Lord Temmu, though supposedly only a contract woman, had treated him with derision and contempt, rather as might have the daughter of a shogun mocked and scorned the attentions of a lowly armsman.
Details
10
20 302 "Please," said Sumomo, looking over her shoulder at Tajima, and smiling.
Details
10
20 305 He then followed Sumomo down the three steps into the beckoning, moonlit garden.
Details
10
20 306 I did not know if this had been well done, or not, but, at least, Tajima was now in a position to inform the lovely Sumomo of her jeopardy.
Details
10
20 329 I think very little time had passed when Sumomo, holding her kimono about herself, her face dark with anger, ascended the three steps, went behind the table, and resumed her position, kneeling.
Details
10
20 354 Sumomo smiled.
Details
10
20 356 "Of course," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 361 A small, angry noise escaped Sumomo.
Details
10
20 430 "Sumomo is Pani," said Tajima.
Details
10
20 431 "What are you talking about?" asked Sumomo.
Details
10
20 479 Sumomo gasped.
Details
10
20 496 "She should be whipped," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 499 "Of course," said Sumomo.
Details
10
20 510 Who knows who will stray by the brook, and at what time? "Perhaps you, too, should withdraw," said Tajima to Sumomo.
Details
10
20 600 "Where is Sumomo?" asked Lord Akio.
Details
10
21 109 It may be recalled that Lord Yamada had been displeased with the foiled espionage of his daughter, Sumomo, who had been placed as a supposed contract woman in the quarters of Lord Nishida, a daimyo of Lord Temmu.
Details
10
21 119 I had little doubt that Pertinax had claimed his Jane; on the other hand, there was much stir in the palace the next morning, for Tajima, I would suppose at great risk, had sought out Sumomo in her quarters, subdued her, and apparently carried her, bound and gagged, and wrapped in the blanket, from ...
Details
10
21 121 Whereas I had little love for the vain, smug, supercilious Sumomo I certainly would have had no wish for her to be put to some prolonged, horrid death, of the sort which might be contrived by Lord Yamada's torturers and executioners.
Details
10
21 122 I was thus rather pleased at Tajima's boldness, and hoped that he would get Sumomo into a collar as soon as possible.
Details
10
21 124 I had little doubt that Lord Yamada seethed with rage at the abduction of Sumomo.
Details
10
21 130 By now I supposed a stripped and collared Sumomo was learning to crawl to a man, bringing him his whip, held between her small, fine teeth.
Details
10
21 132 "Greetings, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Sumomo.
Details
10
21 133 "Lady Sumomo!" I said.
Details
10
21 136 Sumomo was in an exquisite kimono, with a lovely obi.
Details
10
21 158 "I am Sumomo," she said, "daughter of Lord Yamada, Shogun of the Islands".
Details
10
21 172 Too, it did not seem that Tajima, no matter his will or fortitude, his agility and supple strength, could meet the rendezvous on time, bearing Sumomo, despite her lightness and small frame.
Details
10
21 220 It alarmed me that Sumomo was here, in the garden.
Details
10
21 250 Still the projected schedule might have been satisfied, save for Tajima's concern to protect Sumomo from a fate of which she had no inkling, a concern apparently agreeable to, and accepted by, Pertinax.
Details
10
21 253 "Some twenty Ehn later," said Sumomo, "their fears of the departure of their fellow, to my relief, were confirmed, for the point of rendezvous had apparently been reached, a sheltered glade more than a hundred paces from the road.
Details
10
21 368 'I am Sumomo, daughter of the shogun!' I cried.
Details
10
21 376 Certainly I had waited long enough for this intelligence, which I supposed Sumomo had relished withholding from me, until the last moment.
Details
10
21 377 "Unfortunately," said Sumomo.
Details
10
21 484 "Lady Sumomo," said the first Ashigaru, politely, "we have come for you".
Details
10
21 486 "I have been waiting," said Sumomo, unpleasantly.
Details
10
21 490 Lord Yamada, who was thoughtful and sensitive, must have been aware of my likely concern in that regard, particularly if I might discover the return of Sumomo.
Details
10
21 494 "What are you doing?" exclaimed Sumomo.
Details
10
21 497 A leash then, by the third Ashigaru, was snapped about the neck of Sumomo.
Details
10
21 498 "Release me!" cried Sumomo.
Details
10
21 499 "This is madness! This is unconscionable! Do you fools not know who I am?" "You are Lady Sumomo, daughter of Lord Yamada, Shogun of the Islands".
Details
10
22 1 What Occurred During Tea with the Shogun "Great lord," I said to Lord Yamada, "I am come to beg the life of your daughter, Sumomo".
Details
10
22 11 "I ask only," I said, "that you spare the life of your daughter, Sumomo".
Details
10
22 82 "I beg for the life of your daughter, Sumomo," I said.
Details
10
23 177 "Sumomo," I said, "is high born".
Details
10
23 182 "You have heard of the projected fate of Sumomo," I said.
Details
10
23 298 "You might also," said Haruki, "inform the house of Temmu of the projected fate of the beauteous Lady Sumomo.
Details
10
23 307 "I shall convey the projected fate of the Lady Sumomo to the House of Temmu," I said.
Details
10
24 65 "Still," said Lord Akio, thoughtfully, "the punishment of the Lady Sumomo seems light, compared to the gravity of the offense".
Details
10
24 66 "I thought," said the shogun, "you aspired to the hand of the Lady Sumomo".
Details
10
24 136 "The wicked Sumomo!" cried a man.
Details
10
24 182 "The Lady Sumomo!".
Details
10
25 18 Sumomo, bound, an Ashigaru holding to each arm, ascended the three wide steps encircling the pool.
Details
10
25 22 Sumomo turned toward her father, sobbing, crying out for mercy.
Details
10
25 54 Sumomo's bound, unconscious body was held between the two Ashigaru, these abreast, ascending the steps, each with a bound arm in his keeping.
Details
10
25 69 The two Ashigaru, bearing the bound, unconscious Sumomo between them, were nearly to the summit of the platform.
Details
10
25 81 The Ashigaru had now reached the summit of the platform, and had placed the inert body of Sumomo on its surface.
Details
10
25 91 "Sumomo is revived," said Lord Akio.
Details
10
25 92 I could see that Sumomo, supported by the two Ashigaru, had been brought to the forward edge of the platform, where she might look down to the pool below.
Details
10
25 109 Sumomo stood, unsteadily, at the height of the platform.
Details
10
25 121 There were two of the masked Ashigaru on the platform with Sumomo.
Details
10
25 145 Sumomo had moved a bit out, onto the board.
Details
10
25 154 Sumomo wavered on the board.
Details
10
25 162 Sumomo cried out, piteously, as a glaive thrust at her back, and she staggered another foot or two out on the board, her head turning, looking wildly, blindly, about.
Details
10
25 167 Frightened, uncertainly, Sumomo moved a bit further on the board.
Details
10
25 175 Sumomo moved but half a step further on the board, which now bent slightly under her.
Details
10
25 198 Sumomo was then twice jabbed in the back, to urge her forward.
Details
10
25 208 Sumomo, half bent over, with great care, bound, blindfolded, barefoot, hort by hort, feeling ahead of her with each step, bit by bit, moved toward the end of the board.
Details
10
25 221 I could almost sense Sumomo trembling, and trying to breathe, teetering on the narrow, unstable support which held her from the pool far below, that bending, narrow, unsteady bridge lacking a farther shore.
Details
10
25 240 Move! Move!" Sumomo was now at the end of the board.
Details
10
25 257 "Do not move!" I cried to Sumomo.
Details
10
25 258 "Do not move!" "Move!" cried one of the Ashigaru on the platform to Sumomo.
Details
10
25 275 Surely he knew she was not a slave! Crying out in confusion, and misery, Sumomo, obedient, bound and blindfolded, leaped from the board's edge into nothing, and plummeted downward, the skirt of her sheetlike garment torn high about her thighs, and was caught in the arms of Tajima, who threw her on h...
Details
10
25 285 Sumomo, I now realized, though I was not surprised, had lovely legs.
Details
10
25 289 Yes, I thought, Sumomo might bring a good price off a slave block.
Details
10
25 304 "Sumomo," he said, "is a free woman".
Details
10
25 310 I considered the bared legs of Sumomo.
Details
10
25 318 If a free woman had been as much exposed as Sumomo, she might, in her humiliation, repudiate her compromised, outraged freedom, and seek the collar, regarding herself as now worthy of no more.
Details
10
25 339 The masked Ashigaru, Lord Yamada's secret death squad, the ten who had been waiting at the foot of the platform, and the two who had taken Sumomo to its perilous height, had now departed the stadium.
Details
10
26 37 "Perhaps then, too," he said, "we might add the tarnsman and Sumomo to the festivities".
Details

34 60 "And what if the field slave is Sumomo?" asked Kazumitsu.

36 2 By now, perhaps the eighth Ahn, we supposed that Yasushi would have visited Lord Akio, and Lord Akio would have had an opportunity to make his determination with respect to Nezumi, who was not with us, discovering her to be the former Sumomo.
