11	408	* * * * None, it seemed, at Red Rock had either seen, or heard, of so strange an architectural oddity as a tower of steel in the desert.	10
11	413	I had little doubt, nor did Hassan, that it was within the dune country that lay the steel tower, if there was indeed such an unusual edifice.	10

24	714	I had paid a visit to the north tower, which commanded the north gate.	10
24	720	At the north gate, in the gate room, at the foot of the tower, ten guards struggled, come recently again to consciousness, finding themselves bound and gagged.	10
24	721	Above the gate, in the tower itself, lay another ten.	10
24	752	The north tower was theirs.	10
25	58	* * * * It was on the height of the highest tower of the kasbah of Tarna that Hassan, I close behind him, cornered Ibn Saran.	10
25	75	Then his face went white, and he turned, and staggered to the parapet of the tower.	10

29	215	The tower on the right, as I faced the gate, housed the windlass which lifted and lowered the gate.	10
29	216	It was turned by prisoners and slaves, chained to its bars, but these men, without the assistance of the gigantic counterweights, also within the tower, could not have moved it.	10

9	277	"That is the position of a tower slave," I said.	10
9	279	The position of the tower slave, in most cities, is very similar to that of the pleasure slave.	10
9	280	The major difference is that the tower slave, whose duties are commonly, primarily, domestic, kneels with her knees in a closed position, whereas the pleasure slave, in a symbolic recognition of the fuller nature of her bondage, and its most significant aspects, kneels with them in an open position.	10
9	281	The tower slave, of course, like any other slave, is fully at the disposal of the master, in any and every way.	10

16	50	If the wall is a land wall, it can, with luck, topple a siege tower.	10
16	60	It is better, I think, for the individual attacker, particularly if the walls are high, over twenty feet, say, to try to enter over the bridge of a siege tower or, even better, through a breached wall or gate.	10

17	38	The second catapult cast its load, its boulder, into the midst of startled men and had it not been for their smitten bodies, dashed back, cushioning the blow would have torn its way free through the back of the tall, shedlike tower.	10

17	65	At both bridges, following the success of the devices of the fishermen and huntsmen, the temporary consternation of hesitant successors permitted defenders to take their place, too, on the shaking bridge, where, in moments, they had pressed their way back even to the edge of the flooring, that of th...	10

13	302	They were not like the six-legged creatures I had seen before, that on the ledge, that on the surface of the tower.	10
13	555	These bridges were not such as the earlier "bridge," that which had led toward the surface of the turret, or tower, which had been little more than a flat rail.	10

16	56	Outside it I could see lights in some of the tower buildings of the city.	10
16	550	I wondered where the slave, Dorna, was, whom I had met on the surface of the tower.	10
24	446	She had been taken from the top of the tower before I had been entered into the concealed shoot which had sped me far below the city, to the net suspended over the pool, that to which the giant urts had access.	10
24	464	It was the only one I knew, other than that unenviable one which lay at the top of the tower.	10
24	604	I had seen him in robes on the height of a tower, on a great chair, as might have been some ruler, some dispenser of justice, and I had seen him in the softness of lounging robes, in his own compartments.	10
24	708	On the height of the tower she had been reeling, sick with fear, at the very suggestion that she might be returned to him.	10

18	140	Most inhabitants of the tower, free and slave, would leave the tower at various levels, utilizing the bridges amongst them, those stretching from tower to tower, or using them to descend to the street.	10
13	62	To reduce such a city, with primitive weaponry, tower by tower, might well require an army, and, conceivably, an investment of years of effort and expense.	10
