2	170	His supposition seemed plausible to me, for from the very beginning I had understood that in something or someone existed a force and clarity of understanding beside which the customary habits of rationality as I knew them were little more than the tropisms of the unicellular animal.	10
2	261	"But why would this evidence not be understood?" I asked.	10
3	234	The Older Tarl was leaving, and I understood that I was to follow him.	10
5	107	"Why?" What could I tell her? That I had come from another world, that I was determined that all the ways of Gor should not be mine, or that I had cared for her, somehow, so helpless in her condition—that she had moved me to regard her not as an instrumentality of mine or of the Council, but ...	10

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
18	31	"The tarn carried her off like a tabuk!" His laughter, which spread to the other slaves in the room, those chained to me, was uproarious, and I understood better than I had understood before the affection with which the Tatrix of Tharna was held in the mines.	10
6	68	Something of the nature of the institution of capture, and the Gorean's attitude toward it, becomes clear when it is understood that one of a young tarnsman's first missions is often the capture of a slave for his personal quarters.	10
10	103	I understood I was to go through the opening.	10
13	145	As I stood there in the center of the arena, alone, silent, aloof, not seeming to hear them, those hundreds, rather thousands, who wore the silver masks understood that their will had been spurned, that this creature alone on the sand beneath them had thwarted their pleasure.	10
14	152	"The bird is chained! Attack! Kill them both!" In that instant the bolt gave, and the nut spun from the shaft! The tarn, as if it understood it was free, shook the hated metal from its leg and lifted its beak to the skies and uttered such a cry as must have been heard by all in Tharna, a cry seldom ...	10
17	111	He had understood me, and he knew that his life was in danger.	10
18	175	We worked on them, bending over them in the darkness, I and three men from Port Kar, who understood what must be done.	10
22	172	Thus it was, gradually and unnoticed, that the gynocracy of Tharna came to be established, and honored with the full weight of tradition and custom, those invisible bonds heavier than chains because they are not understood to exist.	10
26	26	Most of the silver masks however, when it was understood their battle had been lost and the laws of Tharna were irrevocably shattered, came of their own free will into the streets and submitted themselves in the traditional fashion of the captive Gorean female, kneeling, lowering the head, and lifti...	10

2	5	He could not read the manuscript, as it was written in English, a language as foreign to him as Gorean would be to most of you, but yet he would treasure the manuscript and guard it as though it were a most precious possession, for he was a scribe and it is the way of scribes to love the written wor...	10
2	77	I then understood that the larl I had heard must be a larl of Priest-Kings, for no animal and no man enters or exists in the Sardar without the consent of Priest-Kings, and if it was fed it must be at the hand of Priest-Kings or their servants.	10
2	94	The most significant reason, however, becomes clear when the role of the last man on the file, who is spoken of as Last Spear, is understood.	10
4	78	I now understood the purpose of the tiled circle which surrounded the throne.	10
5	108	I now understood the meaning of the numeral on the girl's collar.	10
5	177	I now understood why she so feared to leave the room.	10
6	151	And then came the third and final stroke of that distant gong and at the same instant the energy bulbs in the room dimmed and I understood that now somewhere in the long corridors of that vast edifice there walked the Priest-Kings of Gor.	10

9	200	Now it seemed to me that I understood but they had come too soon! She had not had a chance to do her work.	10

21	61	I assumed that the exudate or whatever it might be that had been taken from the Priest-Kings was Gur, and that I now understood what it was to retain Gur.	10

27	110	But I now understood as I observed the slight, almost enraptured tremor of their antennae responding to the scent-music of the musicians that this was not a simple demonstration of their patience but a time of exaltation for them, of gathering, of bringing the Nest together, of reminding them of the...	10
28	90	I no longer wished her to be confined here now that I better understood how matters stood in the Nest.	10
28	105	On the other hand I have never truly objected to the title because I had not been long on Gor before I understood, for some reason that is not yet altogether clear to me, that the word "Master" can indescribably thrill a girl when she finds it on her lips, now those of a slave girl, and knows that i...	10
30	16	Though I felt no pain nor any of the discomfort I would have expected, I now understood that these creatures had infused into the very tissues of my brain one of the golden control webs that could be operated from the Scanning Chamber of the Priest-Kings.	10
30	65	There were new ships flying in the Nest, I understood, ships that had been built by Misk's men and disks that had now been armored by those of Sarm.	10

2	37	Who knew with which people the object might have been placed? Perhaps it had been hidden away and forgotten? Perhaps it was now a sacred object, little understood, but revered—and it would be sacrilege to think of it, blasphemy to speak its name, a cruel and slow death even to cast one's eyes...	10
2	84	When I speak of Year Keepers and Singers it must be understood that these are not, for the Wagon Peoples, castes, but more like roles, subsidiary to their main functions, which are those of war, herding and the hunt.	10
2	88	The omens, I understood, had not been favorable in more than a hundred years.	10
5	33	In his simple statement I then understood the meaning of her condition.	10
5	100	It was thus I first learned the name of the man whom I understood to be Ubar of this fierce people.	10
6	35	It was clear she could not believe her eyes, that she understood nothing, that she did not comprehend her surroundings, that she thought herself mad.	10
6	61	Had the girl been brought to this world by Priest-Kings? Was she the recent victim of one of the Voyages of Acquisition? But I understood them to have been curtailed in the recent subterranean War of Priest-Kings.	10
7	181	I understood then that both men could read, though perhaps many of the Tuchuks could not.	10
7	188	Now I understood, as I had only suspected before, why an English-speaking girl was necessary to bear the collar, that she might be the device whereby I would be singled out from the hundreds and thousands among the wagons, and so be marked for death.	10
8	362	She had misjudged the heartbeat or had not understood the swiftness of the kaiila, never having before observed it from the unenviable point of view of a quarry, because when she turned to see if her hunter had left the vicinity of the circle, he was upon her and as she cried out the bola struck her...	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.	10
9	144	Elizabeth Cardwell's being permitted the pelt of the red larl was, as you have doubtless understood, unusual amongst the wagons.	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...	10
10	265	It might also be mentioned that the Turian warrior, in his opinion, too seldom encounters the warrior of the Wagon Peoples, who tends to be a frustrating, swift and elusive foe, striking with great rapidity and withdrawing with goods and captives almost before it is understood what has occurred.	10
10	354	This aspect of the games was extremely humiliating for the Turian girls, but they understood its necessity; few men, especially barbarian warriors, care to fight for a woman on whose face they have not even looked.	10
13	142	Among the animals I saw many verr; some domestic tarsks, their tusks sheathed; cages of flapping vulos, some sleen, some kaiila, even some bosk; by the Paravaci haruspexes I saw manacled male slaves, if such were to be permitted; commonly, I understood from Kamchak, the Tuchuks, Kassars and Kataii r...	10
16	325	On the other hand they may well not have understood its true value.	10
24	29	I asked him about this, for Tuchuk warfare, as I understood it, was complete, leaving no living thing in its wake, killing even domestic animals and poisoning wells.	10
25	339	Suddenly I thought I understood Kamchak! He had indeed been fond of the girl! "Elizabeth," I said.	10

4	124	"Also," said Cernus, "it is understood by me that you picked up one of my girls on the street".	10
5	66	She, of Earth, had never heard of this trick, and yet, from the barest of hints, she had understood what could be done.	10
6	49	Following the meal, I understood, in the House of Cernus, is a time for the pleasure and recreation of the men.	10
7	94	Indeed, I suspected that other than Cernus there were none who truly understood the nature of the ship and its mission, and perhaps he only incompletely.	10
9	118	I then understood why only women had been seen in these rooms.	10

17	530	I had not understood until then that the beautiful, proud Sura would, in order of the gambling, serve each of the men in that room.	10
19	187	Then I understood what was going on, perhaps belatedly, for I knew the girl, Red Silk before the black ships, was extremely responsive, and had even been used in the hall of Cernus for the amusement of his Warriors and guards; she had known the caress would be given; she had been ready; she had perh...	10
19	471	It was then she understood herself sold.	10
20	193	I then understood that Cernus would appoint my champion.	10

15	399	Then, as though in terror and fury, as though she now first understood herself in the snares of a slave, she leaped to her feet, fighting, to the music, the thongs.	10
17	148	I knew Chenbar to be a brilliant Ubar and captain, but even he, the brilliant Chenbar, could not well have understood our plans, our dispositions and our ventures, for we ourselves, until hours before, had not known with what we might work and how it might be used.	10

7	414	I suddenly understood, as I had not before, how on Earth my position and my wealth had created an aura about me, that made lesser people respect me and move aside when I wished to pass, that made them deferential to me, eager to please me, fearful should they fail to do so.	10
8	530	I understood the meaning of binding leather, for a woman such as I, and I rejoiced in it.	10
8	575	Not until I had become a slave girl, and understood that men might own me, did I become so devastatingly, thrillingly, aware of them, the rude beauty and strength of their bodies, and their power.	10
8	1065	Then, too, to my dismay, I saw another look, which I, even white silk, understood.	10

2	1124	Further, I wanted to please him not simply from fear but also, incredibly perhaps to your mind, out of an inexplicable gratitude for his dominance, which, for no reason I understood, and in spite of my Earth conditioning, I found glorious.	10
3	179	Yet, even then, had I been told how it is that girls of a certain sort, of a sort which I was soon to find myself to be, could sometimes in their need scream and writhe in the grass, could sometimes dance wildly beneath the moons, clawing at them, could sometimes tear their fingernails bloody scratc...	10

6	52	Yet, apparently, for no reason I clearly understood, I was becoming more provocative and stimulating to men.	10
7	143	But return to me now my veils, and my sandals, too, for my ransom surely will be less if it be understood my modesty has been so grievously compromised.	10

7	361	No woman who failed to meet these understood, publicized and well-known terms would be acceptable.	10

9	234	Then I had been brought to Gor, and had discovered that I was beautiful, truly beautiful, and that such as I might well belong to glorious, male beasts who would relish and treasure us, and master us!

12	694	I had heard another girl crying out earlier, as she had been tagged, although at the time I had not understood what had been done to her.	10
12	807	I think I understood then in yet another dimension what I was, what it was to be such as I, a slave.	10
13	274	Is that clearly understood?" "Yes, Master," I whispered.	10
13	428	To make matters worse the women in the tiers, because of the bidding, now saw me, and understood me, as a girl destined for the taverns, hot, spiced meat, delicious to men, a delectable accompaniment, like the music, to the tawny fire of paga.	10
13	446	He thrust me behind the last girl on the chain; she was kneeling, braceleted to the chain, facing away from me; her head was down; I wondered if she had been sold before; I did not speak to speak to her, of course; nor did I want to speak to her; what was there to say; and I was miserable; and, too,...	10
14	40	That could be read, I understood, on the close-fitting steel collar I wore, a ten-hort collar.	10
14	214	I now well understood the agitation of Bina.	10
17	75	I understood then they were not concerned with the pox, which had vanished in the vicinity of Bazi over two years ago.	10
19	72	Rather I understood now that in some way the dream had recalled to me, or touched upon, a ritual in which I had been rehearsed.	10
19	148	"And even if its meaning could be understood, it would be too late for the enemy to act.	10
20	78	I was pleased to see that he understood my words not as a statement of the obvious, but, rather, as an "advertising girl's" expected hawking of wares, if not as a more personal invitation.	10
22	16	I understood then how it could be that men might love the sea.	10
22	91	A reference to the "rudder side" or "steering-board," or "steering-oar," side would be readily understood, at least by sailors, if applied to such a ship.	10
