2 6 There was a tapestry to the right, a well-woven depiction of some hunting scene, I took it, but fancifully done, the spear-carrying hunters mounted on birds of a sort and attacking an ugly animal that reminded me of a boar, except that it appeared to be too large, out of proportion to the hunters.

10
6 15 Like most Gor compasses, mine contained a chronometer, and I took the compass, turned it over, and pressed the tab that would snap open the back and reveal the dial.
Details
10
6 39 I cursed as an arrow creased my shoulder, as the tarn's great wings smote the air and the monster took to flight.
Details
10
6 104 The next remark took my breath away.
Details
10
6 219 After a few minutes, his beak and talons wet with blood and feathers, your tarn took flight.
Details
10
7 78 I was speechless for a moment, but then, remembering that harsh Gorean custom required me either to accept the submission or slay the captive, I took her wrists in my hands and said, "I accept your submission".
Details
10
7 150 I took her arm, but she drew back.
Details
10
7 222 He placed it in his own belt and took from a pouch at his side a pair of manacles, which he snapped on my wrists.

10

10
8 82 "Let me," said Talena, and took the key and opened the lock.
Details
10
8 108 At last she took a relatively unsoiled undergarment, something blue and silk, bare at the shoulders, and drew it on, belting it with a strip of what had been her veil.
Details
10
8 198 I cursed her, for she took unfair advantage of the Warrior Codes of Gor.
Details
10
9 70 "Here," she said, "I have it!" She took a lead chain from my pouch, wrapped it several times about her slim ankle and snapped it shut, placing the key in my hand.
Details
10
10 90 "I have a spare ankle ring," he said, and took Talena by the arm, thrusting her inside the wagon.
Details
10
11 42 That night I took Talena into the City of Tents, and by the light of torches set on lances we walked arm in arm through the crowded streets, among the colorful tents and market stalls.
Details
10
11 48 Reluctantly I took Talena to the great tent of blue and yellow silk, and we pressed in among the hot, smelling bodies of the buyers, forcing our way toward the front.
Details
10
11 63 I took Talena by the elbow and, though she protested, moved her gently through the crowd and out into the air.
Details
10
12 120 After a few minutes of my ministrations the tarn, satisfied, spread his wings and took flight, to continue the search for food which had been interrupted.
Details
10
12 155 I then took the binding fiber and extra bowstrings from the pack.

Details

15 83 I took my hand from his mouth.
Details
10
15 96 With affection I took him by the shoulders and shook him.
Details
10
16 13 Occasionally I would climb halfway up one of the siege towers under construction and observe the city of Ar and the skirmishes that took place between it and the first ditch.
Details
10
18 63 I took the tarn into the air again.
Details
10
18 123 As I pondered, the fragments of a plan took form in my mind.
Details
10
18 127 I took my tarn-goad and dismounted.
Details
10
18 168 Much of what took place then is jumbled in my memory, like the fragments of some bizarre, incomprehensible dream.
Details
10
19 216 Trembling, she stood beside me, and we took one another in our arms, the blood from my wound staining her robe.

10
4 90 Then, as sleen hunters do, for luck, and because I was hungry, I took my sword and cut through the fur of the animal and ate the heart.
Details
10
9 94 I took a coin from the leather sack and threw it to the proprietor.
Details
10
9 109 I took a long, burning swig of the brew and though, on another occasion, I might have thought it foul, tonight it sang through my body like the bubbling fire it was, a sizzling, brutal irritant that tasted so bad and yet charmed me so much I had to laugh.
Details
10
9 118 I took another long swig of Kal-da and shook my head to throw the swirling fire from eyes and brain.

12 85 "A handful of bread for a song," was a common Gorean invitation extended to members of the caste, and it might occur on the lips of a peasant or a Ubar, and the poet took great pride that he would sing the same song in both the hut of the peasant and the halls of the Ubar, though it won for him only...

12 113 "Yet," she said, "though I had worn the silver mask, and counted myself a woman of Tharna, when he took me in his arms, I did not find the sensation unpleasant".
Details
10
14 134 It did not take long for them to understand that the tarn, for whatever strange reason, was not going to attack me, and, whatever they considered my chances, it took only a moment longer to determine that it was my intention to free the bird.
Details
10
15 261 I took it from my neck.

16 125 He hauled on the one-strap and the monster took flight.

10
18 103 I took the lamp and went, some of my fellow prisoners perforce accompanying me, and held it to the circular shaft, about two feet in diameter, down which the water would hurtle.
Details
10
18 132 I and his fellow took him and thrust him bodily through the opening.
Details
10
20 19 I decided I could use the scabbard, and took it from the wall.
Details
10
20 85 I took the tarn closer.
Details
10
20 90 I took the tarn as high as I could, until his wings beat frantically against the thin air, but could see nothing in the Sardar Mountains that might be the habitation of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
21 17 I thrust my sword back in the scabbard and took off my helmet.
Details
10
21 67 Then, with a shrug in my direction, as if to ask my pardon, he went to the girl and took a handful of her long hair.
Details
10
22 111 He scattered my council and defeated my armies and took me and stripped me and bound me naked across the saddle of his bird and then, with a great cry, he carried me to his city, and there I, once proud Tatrix of Tharna, wore his brand and collar".

22 116 And when I could dance no more he took me in his arms and like a beast forced me to serve his pleasure".
Details
10
22 235 And so it was that I took the cords from her hand, and in the same night Lara who had once been the proud Tatrix of Tharna became according to the ancient rites of her city my slave girl—and a free woman.
Details
10
23 170 To his wonder, Lara took his hand in hers.
Details
10
24 59 Their look said to her why are you not clad as we are, why do you not wear a collar and serve as we serve? To my surprise Lara removed her cloak and took the pot of Kal-da from one of the girls and began to serve the men.
Details
10
24 222 Yet another man took from his head the blue helmet.
Details
10
24 225 "You could not," said the man, "for I am a mercenary of Ar who took service in Tharna only within the time of the revolt".

10
24 238 Andreas had brought with him the shield and spear which I had put down in token of truce, and I took these weapons from him.

17 53 I stayed a long time in the washing-booth and when I came out and donned my plastic tunic it took quite some time to make the Mul-Fungus Porridge of just the consistency at which I preferred it, and then, since I had finally managed to make it the way in which it was least unpalatable, I took some t...

10
27 18 There I took a few minutes to replenish my energies from the containers of Mul-Fungus and I took a long welcome draught of water from the inverted jar in my case.

10
2 2 It took not much time to purchase a small bundle of supplies to take into the Sardar, nor was it difficult to find a scribe to whom I might entrust the history of the events at Tharna.
Details
10
4 73 I took the weapon and tossed it toward the foot of the dais.

10
5 34 She rinsed the bowl and refilled it, and then took another towel of soft linen from a carved chest against the wall.
Details
10
5 36 I took it and first drank from it and then set it on the stone platform before me, and washed.
Details
10
5 53 I, still remaining cross-legged on the platform, reached forward and took her head in my hands, drawing it to mine.
Details
10
5 153 "Here in the Sardar," she said, turning to face me, trembling, "they took me into the tunnels and locked over my head a hideous metal globe with lights and wires and when they freed me they showed me a metal plate and told me that the patterns of my brain, of my oldest and most primitive memories, w...

5 280 I took a step toward her and she turned stumbling with a cry and ran to the corner of the room.

8 32 No wonder the Priest-Kings hid behind their palisade in the Sardar and let the myths of the Initiates build a wall of human terror about them, no wonder they let their nature and ends be secret, no wonder they took such pains to conceal and obscure their plans and purposes, their devices, their inst...

8 231 Vika took another step and then it seemed her legs would fail her and she might swoon.

10
11 82 I took a step toward Sarm.
Details
10
12 106 I had intended my remark to be rather vicious but Sarm took no offense.
Details
10
12 245 It took my hand and awkwardly held it, not knowing how to shake hands apparently.
Details
10
12 248 I took the hand and turned it and shook it.

10
14 30 It took only two or three minutes for the pellet to do its work and it is not with pleasure that I recall those minutes.

14 58 I leaned back against the portal of the Hall of Processing, my eyes closed, and took several slow, deep breaths.

10
16 129 "The letter itself was destroyed, and nearly took me with it," I said.
Details
10
17 54 If these tactics were calculated to have some effect on Sarm, I think they most miserably failed of that effect, for during the entire time I took, which was considerable, he stood motionless in the room, save for an occasional movement of his antennae, frozen in that maddening, immobile but alert p...

10
17 70 At my request Sarm took me to the Scanning Room, whence the surface of Gor is kept under selective surveillance by the Priest-Kings.
Details
10
17 130 The man from the Caste of Builders then sat cross-legged on the ground and took from the pouch slung at his waist a tiny, cylindrical Gorean fire-maker, a small silverish tube commonly used for igniting cooking fires.

10
21 25 I took the torch and went around to the edges of the room.
Details
10
22 23 I took the Mul-Torch out of my mouth and spit out some particles of carbon.
Details
10
23 70 I then took my sword and wiped the oil from one side of the blade and set the shining steel against the lips of the girl from Treve.
Details
10
24 34 As I touched the girl the Beetle took another step forward.
Details
10
25 87 I took off my sword belt and, rebuckling it, made a loop which I managed to hook over the closest ring in the shaft.
Details
10
26 25 Vika was still crying a bit, but I took her hair and wiped her face and told her to stop her noise.
Details
10
26 46 I then took the handful of rags she had worn and discarded them in a nearby waste container, a convenience with which the Nest was, to my mind, excessively provided.
Details
10
26 63 I took her briefly in my arms.
Details
10
26 117 "Once," said the Attendant, "and it took several months, but there is no danger because we feed and water them from the outside".
Details
10
27 42 It took a moment for me to understand the Priest-King's consternation.
Details
10
27 97 He took no more than a taste and the bowl, though the Feast of Tola was well advanced, was still almost brimming.
Details
10
27 107 Considering the number of Priest-Kings and the time it took for each to give Gur to the Mother, I conjectured that the ceremony must have begun hours ago.
Details
10
27 348 The old antennae stretched forward, inching themselves toward me and I took them gently in my hands and held them.
Details
10
27 350 Amazed, I stepped away from her and went to the great golden bowl on its heavy tripod and took out a few drops of the precious liquid in the palm of my hand and returned to her.
Details
10
28 8 Thinking to overcome us with little difficulty, the forces of Sarm, mounted on transportation disks, swept through the tunnels and plazas, but the Priest-Kings of Misk, hidden in rooms, concealed behind portals, firing from the ramps and the roofs of buildings in the open complexes, soon took fierce...
Details
10
28 69 I took the metal key from the loop around my neck and turned the heavy mechanism of the case lock.
Details
10
29 21 I took a long run and with a great bound cleared the ditch by perhaps two feet and was soon speeding on my way to Misk's workshop.
Details
10
29 27 Vika took the cloth from his wound and, ripping it and using a small steel bar from the sheared wall, quickly fashioned a tourniquet, wrapping it securely about the remains of the man's arm.
Details
10
29 45 I took the lead ship into my sights and dropped toward it, narrowing the range to increase the effectiveness of the silver tube.
Details
10
29 85 I took my ship up over the craft and tried another burst, which was even weaker than the last.
Details
10
29 101 I realized there was little I could do so I took the ship up and under the attacker.
Details
10
30 42 Out of the room he took a small leather box from his pouch, removed a tiny sharp blade from it and scratched my arm.
Details
10
30 190 But not long after this took place other Priest-Kings, startled by the decision of Kusk, began to speak of ending the War, and some others too began to cross the lines.
Details
10
31 30 It took Sarm but an instant to realize he had been tricked and he hurled the box from him and it shattered on the tiles of the plaza.
Details
10
31 39 I took the blade.
Details
10
32 6 "It took time to cut through to you," said Misk.
Details
10
32 165 Kusk took a step toward the Beetle.
Details
10
32 316 "My daughter," he said, and took the girl gently in his arms.
Details
10
33 22 I took another leap, this time putting some effort into it, and cleared the top of the crevice by some ten feet to land between it and the gate.
Details
10
34 16 My father took me by the shoulders.
Details
10
34 68 I took the small stone in my hands and kissed it, for it was the Home Stone of the city to which I had pledged my sword, where I had ridden my first tarn, where I had met my father after an interval of more than twenty years, where I had found new friends, and to which I had taken Talena, my love, t...

6 161 He took the skin of wine from the boy and bit out the horn plug; he then, with the wineskin on his shoulder, held back the head of Elizabeth Cardwell with one hand and with the other shoved the bone nozzle of the skin between her teeth; he tipped the skin and the girl, half choking, swallowed wine; ...
Details
10
7 67 The interrogation of Elizabeth Cardwell took hours.
Details
10
7 157 Kamchak handed the paper to Kutaituchik and he took it but looked at it, I thought, blankly.
Details
10
7 162 I smiled and took the piece of rence paper.
Details
10
7 259 He took the meat in his hand and gave it to Kamchak, who bit into it, a bit of juice running at the side of his mouth; Kamchak then held the meat to the girl.
Details
10
7 261 Elizabeth Cardwell took the meat in her two hands, confined before her by slave bracelets and the chain of the Sirik, and, bending her head, the hair falling forward, ate it.
Details
10
8 67 Kamchak then rode, and he, like Conrad of the Kassars, deftly took the fruit from the wand; indeed, his lance entering the fruit perhaps a fraction of an inch less than had Conrad's.
Details
10
8 103 Kamchak said nothing, but then he got up and from a chest in the wagon he took forth a goblet and filled it with an amber fluid, into which he shook a dark, bluish powder.
Details
10
8 104 He then took Elizabeth Cardwell in his left arm and with his right hand gave her the drink.
Details
10
8 148 Kamchak took one look and, with a quiva, shortened it considerably, indeed, until it hung even more briefly than had the quite short, delightful yellow shift in which she had been captured.
Details
10
8 472 I took the binding thong from my belt and put it in my teeth.
Details
10
8 485 I would release the bola in another beat as she took her second sprint to the left.
Details
10
8 499 He took his hand from the side of the standing kaiila.
Details
10
8 522 I then took Dina of Turia in my arms and, at some length, and with a certain admitted satisfaction, collected my winnings.
Details
10
8 560 Elizabeth Cardwell took her position, standing sideways, the tospit held delicately between her teeth.
Details
10
8 621 Then for no reason I understood, I took binding fiber and bound her wrists before her body, and, as Kamchak had done with the other girls, put a thong on her neck and tied it to the pommel of my saddle.
Details
10
9 10 I took a large swallow of fierce paga, washing it down as rapidly as possible.

10
9 255 She took one or two of these small bottles and held them under her nose, and then sprinkled them about the table and cushions.
Details
10
9 304 Then he took his goblet of paga and drained it, watching the girls swaying to the caress of Turian melodies.
Details
10
10 11 Beside him, but as Ubars, rode three other men, whom I took to be chief among the Kassars, the Kataii, the Paravaci.
Details
10
10 255 He took them angrily and, to the laughter of many of the Tuchuks present, withdrew with the animal.
Details
10
10 443 Two men, from Ar, I took it, came forward with rakes and began to smooth the circle of sand between the stakes, for it had been somewhat disturbed in the inspection of the girls.

10
11 30 He took from a silken pouch lying before him on the palanquin a small glass, with glass-petal edges like a flower, mounted on a silver stem about which curled silver leaves.
Details
10
11 99 In short order then Kamchak took the key over the head of Aphris of Turia and sprang open the retaining rings.
Details
10
11 307 Kamchak then took a bit of meat that was left over from the fresh-roasted meat that Miss Cardwell had prepared.
Details
10
11 338 He then got up and walked rather heavily over to one wall of the wagon and took a slave whip from the wall.
Details
10
12 131 I took out some coins from my pouch and handed them to Kamchak who slipped them in a fold of his sash.
Details
10
12 169 He took it and whipped it out.
Details
10
12 190 "I will show you how to wear a camisk," said Kamchak, taking the cord and adjusting it with two or three pulls and jerks that just about took the wind out of the Turian girl.
Details
10
12 251 I smiled rather grimly to myself and took a significant swallow of paga.
Details
10
12 274 I reached around and took her right wrist, drawing it behind her body.
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
12 520 He took about half of it and then wiped his mouth and handed it back.
Details
10
13 68 Then he took her braceleted hands and with one hand raised her hands over her head.
Details
10
13 222 I took back the paga bottle and threw down another swallow.

14 17 Kamchak took her roughly by the arm and shoved her stumbling toward the sleen cage where, holding the bars, frightened, knelt Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
15 71 Roughly Kamchak took her by the arm and thrust her into the sleen cage beside the miserable Elizabeth Cardwell.

16 319 The attempt on my life took place one night and the raid on Kutaituchik's wagon the next.

17 87 I took it that this was an optical illusion of some sort.
Details
10
17 96 I took a few more steps out into the pool.
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.

18 66 Upside down, locked in the gelling fluid, I took the quiva from my mouth and, with both hands, pressed down with the blade against that twitching, jerking, withdrawing membrane.

20 98 "Who are you?" "Do not ask questions," snapped Harold, "here is the girl—take her!" The guard shrugged and as he took Hereena from Harold I winced as the young man felled him with a blow that might have broken the skull of a bosk.

10
20 155 I took one long turn, seeing the torches and lights in the House of Saphrar below, and then guided my bird out over the prairie in the direction of the wagons of the Tuchuks.

10
21 65 It took him only a few moments to discover the value of the stones and, when he did, with a cry of disgust, he hurled them away from the gate into the dust, and the two warriors, while I pretended fright and pain, belabored me with the hilts of their weapons.

23 43 I drew on the one-strap and took the tarn into the air, striking out across the prairie skies to intercept my Thousand on its way to the wagons of the Tuchuks.

10
23 48 It took only a moment for him to give the tarn into the keeping of some five warriors and leap on the back of his kaiila.

10
23 59 Harold took his Thousand into the Wagons, engaging the Paravaci wherever he could find them.
Details
10
23 95 We set pickets and took what rest we could, in the open, the kaiila saddled and tethered at hand.
Details
10
23 102 As soon as our men were through the barricade they leaped from their kaiila, bow and quiver in hand, and took up prearranged positions under the wagons, between them, on them, and behind the wagon box planking, taking advantage of the arrow ports therein.

25 49 The engraving on the Turian collar consisted of the sign of the four bosk horns and the sign of the city of Ko-ro-ba, which I took it, Kamchak had used for my sign.

25 213 She took a sip, absently.

10
26 127 Again and again we encountered guards within the house but each time, when Saphrar took refuge behind them, Kamchak would throw gold to them and they would dissipate and Saphrar, panting, puffing, still clutching the large, purple-wrapped object in his arms, would on his short legs hurry off again.
Details
10
26 148 Harold tossed a pebble into the opening and it took about ten Ihn before we heard it strike water far below.
Details
10
26 348 Saphrar took a step deeper into the pool and the pool permitted this, and he now stood with the fluids level with his chest.

10
26 373 Kamchak took the torch and with his right hand, in a long arc, flung it to the center of the pool.
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...

10
28 45 I then took binding fiber and looped it several times about Miss Cardwell's waist and then several times about the pommel of the saddle, then tying it.

10
28 64 I recalled what I took to be the skepticism of Kamchak and Kutaituchik long ago when they had questioned myself and Elizabeth Cardwell of such matters.

5 131 With a flourish I unrolled the furs, spilling Elizabeth out, who shrieked and began to crawl away, but my hand caught at the loop on the left shoulder of her garment and she turned suddenly, trying to sit up, her feet tangled in the garment and I kicked it away and took her in my arms.

13 297 Mip, scarcely seeming to touch the one-strap with his finger, almost a tap, took the old bird from the perch and in a whiplike flurry of its wings it struck the outside perch and stood there, its old head moving alertly, the wicked black eyes gleaming.
Details
10
13 305 Mip took his tarn streaking among the cylinders and I, on my tarn, followed him.

13 307 With a tap on the two-strap I took the bird in a sudden breathtaking sweep to the high right and in an instant had joined Mip in flight.

17 13 One of them looked at me and from his eyes I judged he may have seen at least three of me and offered me a swig of the bota, which I took.

17 456 Yet again he might wait, and perhaps I could learn of her whereabouts in the city before she took flight, and see her once more.

17 537 I then moved into the center of the gambling men and, not speaking, as they looked up, angry at the intrusion, I took the metal goblet containing the knucklebones from the man who held it.

22 453 Accordingly, though it ran against the grain of my instincts, though I found it actually painful to me, the next time I felt that my strike should be the upper right I took the tarn to the lower left.

22 534 Menicius of Port Kar was now far in the advance but my tarn, silent, save for the crack of his great wings, eyes bright, blood on its beak and steel-shod talons, again took up the pursuit.

10 1 The Council of Captains I took my seat in the Council of the Captains of Port Kar.
Details
10
10 87 I took the green bars to symbolize the rence of the marshes, and the flag, thus, became that of Bosk, a Captain, who had come from the marshes.
Details
10
10 313 I took the note from the boy who appeared suddenly beside my chair.
Details
10
11 376 He took his sword from its sheath and plunged it through the scribe's papers, pinning them to the table.
Details
10
12 54 There, in the heat of a watch fire, I stripped away my clothes and took a cloak from Thurnock.
Details
10
12 64 I took another swig of paga.
Details
10
13 8 I took a longboat ashore, and sent the boat back to my galley.
Details
10
13 76 The girl, enraged, took again her seat on the dais.
Details
10
13 271 He then picked up his trident in his right hand and, not looking back, took his way from the slaves' wharf.
Details
10
13 392 We took up this beat, and again the Rena moved.
Details
10
14 72 Doubtless, from hold to hold, over the months, the word has spread that Bosk not only would not sink a round ship, but that, when he took one, he freed her slaves.
Details
10
14 196 As the beat dropped, I took out the glass of the builders and scanned the horizon.
Details
10
14 211 We took the fourth ship amidships, as we had the third.
Details
10
14 255 His oars took up maximum beat and his heavy ship, the crest of the ram dividing the water before the concave bow, the tarn's beak just below the water line, plunged toward us.
Details
10
14 317 I snapped shut the glass of the builders and, by means of a slender rope ladder fastened at the masthead and anchored to a cleat near the mast well below, took my way down to the deck.
Details
10
15 40 The wild crowds screamed and shouted, and threw flowers, and the flagship, oars dipping in stately fashion, took her regal path, ram's crest dividing flowers in the water, between the buildings lining the great canal.
Details
10
15 77 I took two talenders which had fallen on my shoulder and fastened them in the ropes at her neck.
Details
10
15 405 At last, bit by bit, as her fear and terror mounted, the men, fist by fist, took up the slack in the thongs that tethered her, until suddenly, they swiftly bound her hand and foot and lifted her over their heads, captured female slave, displaying her bound arched body to the tables.
Details
10
15 420 And I took her by the hair and held back her head, pouring the wine down her throat, some of it running down her face and body, under the slave collar and its bells.
Details
10
15 581 He took her by the collar and turned it slightly upward in his large hands, forcing her head up to face his.
Details
10
15 646 Enraged I took the bag of gold, what was left of it, and hurled it out into the hall, spilling a rain of golden tarn disks before it struck the tiles.
Details
10
15 797 I put out my hands and took her head in my hands.
Details
10
16 248 I took the rock.
Details
10
16 277 I took a silken cloth from the table.
Details
10
16 302 Then I took my seat in the longboat.
Details
10
16 359 I took my chair.
Details
10
17 123 In the basket I wrapped the admiral's cloak about me, began to chew on a piece of tarsk meat, as much against the cold as the hunger, and took out the glass of the builders.
Details
10
17 127 I uncorked the gourd and took some of the water.
Details
10
17 218 The other ships took their places in four lines behind the command ship of the reserves.
Details
10
17 255 I took the glass of the builders, and its strap, from my shoulder.
Details
10
17 261 The oar-master took the longboat's tiller.
Details
10
17 380 As one set of birds hovered over the deck and their men dropped to its planks, the birds darted away, and another set took their place.
Details
10
17 437 "Fight!" I drew on the one-strap and the tarn, against the wind, took flight and Chenbar of Kasra, Ubar of Tyros, the Sea Sleen, in the manacles of a common slave, swung free below us, helpless and pendant in the furies of the wind and the sleeting rain, the captive of Bosk, a captain of Port Kar, a...
Details
10
18 39 "Stroke! Stroke!" The beating of the copper drum of the keleustes took up maximum beat.
Details
10
18 57 I took off my admiral's cloak and threw it over the shivering bird.
Details
10
18 148 We took the shuddering bird down among the trees.
Details
10
18 249 He took her in his arms.
Details
10
18 254 He took her by the shoulders, turned her about and started her stumbling down the kitchen passageway.
Details
10
18 261 I took a step toward her.
Details
10
18 264 I took another step toward her.
Details
10
18 268 I took another step toward her and, wildly, she wheeled and, barefoot, fled stumbling down the passageway.
Details
10
18 443 "I took it," she said.
Details
10
18 467 "Where is the collar I took from your throat on the night of the victory feast?" I asked.
