But most importantly the men of the arsenal regard themselves as just that, the men of the arsenal, and would be unhappy apart from their work. |
10 |

I recall men shouting, "Many men could not all sit through the stroke of an oar! Would you have them stand?" "So great an oar could not even be held by the hands of a man!"

10 |

They made us work! Why did they not do their own cooking, and polish their own leather, and go to the stream or the washing shed and wash their own clothes? They did not do so because they did not wish to do so. |

Ena was high girl in the camp, but I suspected that Ute might be first among the work slaves. |

10 |

They were applying themselves to the work of the tarnsmen of Treve, attack, plunder and enslavement. |
10 |

A girl would cry, "They return!" and we, eager in our work tunics, would run to the center of the camp to greet the returning warriors. |
10 |
| 15 | 202 |
And so I, my work tunic removed, would be locked in the shed at night. |
10 |
| 15 | 211 |
How they laughed and talked to one another! How vital they seemed! We had to work the next day! Why did they not go to sleep? One would sing or hum to herself. |

"I am first girl among the work slaves. |
10 |

"El-in-or," said Ute, "take these new slaves and get them work tunics, and then return them to me, and I shall assign them their duties for the day". |
10 |
| 15 | 262 |
Inge and Rena, and the other new girls, followed me, and I took them to the chest at the side of the shed, where I could find them their simple, brief garments of brown rep-cloth, which raiment would constitute their sole work garment in the camp of Rask of Treve. |
10 |
| 15 | 273 |
Then angrily Inge and Rena stood before me, clad in the brief, simple garments of female work slaves. |
10 |
| 15 | 274 |
"You make a pretty work slave," I said to Inge. |
10 |
| 15 | 280 |
The other girls, too, donned their tunics, and then I led them all, the new slaves, clad for work, back to Ute, who would instruct them in their duties for the day. |
10 |
| 15 | 281 |
* * * * Four days after Inge and Rena, and other new girls, had been brought to the secret war camp of Rask of Treve, the tarnsman, and his fierce men, again returned from the work of warriors. |
10 |
| 15 | 284 |
"Finish your work," said Ute. |
10 |
| 15 | 286 |
"Finish your work," she said. |
10 |
| 15 | 288 |
To one side there was a large pile of laundered work tunics, which I had washed in the early morning. |
10 |
| 15 | 295 |
Angrily I pressed one of the hot irons down on a work tunic, smoothing it. |
10 |
| 15 | 340 |
"I know little of such work," said Verna, "but are you not in danger of scorching the garment which you are ironing?" I hastily drew away the iron, placing it on the fire-heated plate. |
10 |
| 15 | 344 |
"Continue with your work, Slave," she said. |
10 |
| 15 | 350 |
Ena came from the tent and I, only a work girl, knelt before her, putting my forehead to the ground. |
10 |
| 15 | 365 |
Inge and Rena were fetching in their work tunics. |
10 |
| 15 | 430 |
She tended to ignore me, as one would a female work slave. |
10 |
| 15 | 602 |
Why should I work as hard as she? Also, when they were not looking, I placed berries in my mouth, taking care that the juices not stain my lips, revealing that I had eaten them. |
10 |
| 15 | 616 |
Two or three guards stood about, and some of my fellow female work slaves. |
10 |
| 15 | 876 |
On the following day I was returned to work. |
10 |
| 15 | 878 |
After I had done this, naked, and had washed my body and hair thoroughly, I was again given the tunic of a work slave. |
10 |
| 15 | 892 |
Similarly, one day was much as another for Elinor Brinton, the female work slave in the camp of Rask of Treve. |
10 |
| 15 | 893 |
She rose at dawn and, until dusk, with her work companions, performed her repetitive, servile tasks. |
10 |
| 15 | 898 |
It could perhaps be mentioned that such work, cooking, cleaning and laundering, and such, is commonly regarded as being beneath even free women, particularly those of high caste. |
10 |
| 15 | 901 |
Free women often treat such girls with great cruelty, and the mere word of a free woman, that she is displeased with the girl's work, is enough to have the girl beaten. |
10 |
| 15 | 902 |
The girls strive zealously in their work to please the free women. |
10 |
| 15 | 907 |
The Gorean free woman, often, does only what work she chooses. |
10 |
| 15 | 911 |
I recognized further that there was something farcical in the thought of the Gorean male lending his hand to such small, unimportant work. |
10 |
| 15 | 919 |
Thus, who is to do such work? The answer seems obvious, that it will be done by the slaves. |
10 |
| 15 | 921 |
Why should free persons do such tasks? They have slaves for such work. |
10 |
| 15 | 924 |
How else could it have been? "Hurry, Slave! Hurry in your work!" cried Ute. |
10 |
| 15 | 926 |
I did my work quietly, and seldom spoke to the other girls, nor did they much speak to me. |
10 |
| 15 | 928 |
When they sang at their work, or enjoyed laughter and sport, I did not sing, nor did I laugh, nor join them in their pleasures. |
10 |
| 15 | 931 |
Sometimes, when I would finish my work, I would help the other girls with theirs. |
10 |
| 15 | 935 |
I no longer had an interest in lying or cheating, or shirking my work. |
10 |
| 15 | 954 |
Sometimes the other girls would trip me when I was carrying burdens, or dirty the work which I had done, that I must do it over. |
10 |
| 15 | 960 |
I wanted only my work, and to be left alone. |
10 |
| 15 | 972 |
I wanted only my work, and the silence and darkness of the shed, with its padlocked door. |
10 |
| 15 | 982 |
I began to do my work with great efficiency and promptness, better than the other girls. |
10 |
| 15 | 1010 |
I would need rest, for I must work tomorrow. |
10 |
| 15 | 1022 |
In the work shed, of course, we are not permitted our tunics, for they might be soiled. |
10 |
| 15 | 1034 |
"Now, fetch a work tunic, and report back to me". |
10 |
| 15 | 1035 |
I hurried to the box of work tunics and donned one, and then returned to kneel before Ute. |
10 |
| 15 | 1041 |
"You are now in a work tunic," said Ute. |
10 |
| 15 | 1074 |
I felt far more naked now than I had been when I had emerged from the work shed. |
10 |
| 15 | 1088 |
"No!" The other girls looked up from their work, and laughed. |
10 |
| 15 | 1114 |
In a few minutes, Ute, who retained her work tunic, and would not serve, reviewed us, commenting here and there, and recommending small changes upon occasion. |
10 |
| 16 | 15 |
How furious I was! After my work for the day had been finished, I had hoped, breathlessly, vulnerably, that I might be again summoned to the tent of Rask of Treve. |
10 |
| 16 | 16 |
I had done my work well, and when I had finished early I had helped the other girls. |
10 |
| 16 | 17 |
I recalled that I had sung much during the day, and had been happy in my work. |
10 |
| 16 | 24 |
"Hurry to your work, Slave," she had said. |
10 |
| 16 | 26 |
I sprang to my feet and ran to my work, overcome with affection for her. |
10 |
| 16 | 45 |
At dawn he had sent me from his tent, to the shed for female work slaves. |
10 |
| 16 | 139 |
I would then be gagged, and have my wrists taken behind me, and bound there, together, behind the post, to the tying ring, that I might not even be able to rise to my feet, that I might be well held in place, on my knees, until it might please masters to free me, perhaps to work, perhaps to be beate... |
10 |
| 16 | 205 |
She had been put in a common work tunic. |
10 |
| 16 | 206 |
She might have been no more than a work slave. |
10 |
| 16 | 207 |
To be sure, she would have been an uncommonly beautiful work slave. |
10 |
| 16 | 210 |
Doubtless she was much pleased to put the daughter of her enemy, Marlenus of Ar, he who had captured her in the northern forests, and had caged her, and exhibited her, in a simple rep-cloth work tunic. |
10 |
| 16 | 212 |
The work tunic would conceal the identity of her new acquisition, generously bestowed on her from the bounty of Rask of Treve. |
10 |
| 16 | 291 |
Many is the free woman of Earth who languishes in a sexual wilderness, who is bored, who finds her life, her work, her marriage, a drab, repetitious routine of tediums. |
10 |
| 16 | 297 |
I had little doubt but what the magnificent Verna, leader of the panther girls, would bring her comely prize, apparently only another common slave, in a work tunic, successfully to the northern forests. |
10 |
| 16 | 429 |
"It is time for you to be about your work, Slave," he said. |
10 |
| 16 | 433 |
"Go to the shed," he said, "and get a work tunic". |
10 |
| 16 | 456 |
"To your work!" he laughed. |
10 |
| 16 | 464 |
When I leaped up, laughing, shaking my head and hair, he again offered to place his cloak about my shoulders, that my body might be covered when I went to the shed for the work slaves. |
10 |
| 16 | 474 |
"Yes," I laughed, "and one with pierced ears!" I turned about and sped down the hill to the shed for female work slaves. |
10 |
| 16 | 477 |
I loved her! She would also, however, have a full roster of work for me to perform this day. |
10 |
| 16 | 486 |
I turned again, and ran toward the work shed. |
10 |
| 16 | 495 |
"You have much work to do today". |
10 |
| 17 | 145 |
Surely then he could see that she was no different from others, the girls locked in the work shed, the girls in the tents, squirming on their chains, all eager to be called to his tent. |
10 |
| 17 | 283 |
I suspect he seldom had the opportunity to chain trained pleasure slaves to the wall of his kitchen after the completion of the evening's work. |
10 |

I was not badly treated, though I was forced to do my work perfectly. |

When I had spoken Bosk had said to me, "Go to the kitchen, for there is work for you there". |

Numbly I had returned to the kitchen, where Tellius, himself astonished, gave me my work. |
10 |

"Go to the kitchen," he said, "there is work for you there". |
10 |

I sang at my work, for I knew that Rask of Treve lived. |
10 |

"You have work in the kitchen," had said Bosk of Port Kar. |
