7	32	His eyes, like those of an urt, one of the small horned rodents of Gor, were set obliquely in his skull.
8	18	Whereas there is status in the capture of a free woman, there is less risk in the capture of a slave; the pursuit is never pressed as determinedly in their cases, and one does not have to imperil one's life for a girl who might, once the Robes of Concealment have been cast off, turn out to have the ...

16	196	"The little urt was trying to pick my pouch!" "You were not always a merchant, then?" I asked Saphrar.
17	32	This reasoning also led me to suppose that it would not be likely to be anything like a water sleen or a giant urt from the canals of Port Kar.
18	29	"You fat, filthy urt!" cried Harold, struggling in his bonds with the two men-at-arms who held him.

2	9	What is this object? One might speak of it as many things, the subject of secret, violent intrigues; the source of vast strifes beneath the Sardar, strifes unknown to the men of Gor; the concealed, precious, hidden hope of an incredible and ancient race; a simple germ; a bit of living tissue; the do...
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 c...

8	244	His parents and people had been slain in the Turian raid in which he had been captured, so he had no kin.
9	84	Many people scarcely glanced at us, in spite of the fact that we were theoretically blood foes.
9	468	"I will stand, I tell you! I will! I will!" "No," said Saphrar, "I cannot permit it—it is better that the people laugh at Aphris of Turia—and perhaps, in some years, they may forget".
10	51	"Take this," I said, "and go to Turia—find your people and be free".
10	262	The games of Love War, in themselves, do not constitute a gathering of the Wagon peoples, for normally the herds and the free women of the peoples do not approach one another at these times; only certain delegations of warriors, usually about two hundred from a peop...
10	289	I had also been informed by Kamchak that this places the girl farther from her own people.
10	297	The selection of the girls, incidentally, is determined by judges in their city, or of their own people, in Turia by members of the Caste of Physicians who have served in the great slave houses of Ar; among the wagons by the masters of the public slave wagons, who buy, sell and rent gi...

17	242	The fewer people who knew of the plan the better.
19	303	The Tuchuks, one of the distant Wagon peoples, tend to be, to those of northern Gor, a people of mystery and intrigue; to those of the southern plains, of course, they tend to be little more than efficient, fierce and dreaded foes.
21	387	"The people rise!" cried Ho-Sorl.
24	106	At times we walked up swirling gradients, at times stairs, swirling and broad, leading higher and higher into the cylinder; sometimes we walked through marble-floored passageways, in which, through narrow windows, designed to be too small for a body to pass, but large enough for use as crossbow port...

3	90	At such times there is drinking of rence beer, steeped, boiled and fermented from crushed seeds and the whitish pith of the plant; singing; games; contests and courtship, for the young people of the rence islands too seldom meet those of the other communities.
4	151	"We Rencers," she said, "are independent people.
5	170	Young people seldom see one another, saving those from the same tiny community.
5	180	The bantering of the young people in the morning, and the display of the girls in the evening, for in effect in the movements of the dance every woman is nude, have both, I expect, institutional roles to play in the life of the rence growers, significant roles analogous to the roles of...

13	229	The evening of my second day in this captivity, which was the fourth following my capture, the representative of the urt people had been thrust in with me.
13	236	If I had thought there would have been, I would have posted the representative of the urt people near the bars and, presumably warned by him in time of any approach on the part of a jailer, replaced the table carefully in its original position.
13	250	The representative of the urt people regarded me, narrowly, furtively, fearfully.
13	253	The representative of the urt people then scurried to his food and, by one edge of the tray, with a scraping noise of metal on stone, dragged it quickly over to his straw.

14	305	In this fashion I supposed the urt people might speak with one another.
14	370	How, I wondered, did the first of the urt people gain admittance to their packs.
14	374	This secret, in the successive generations, might have been lost to the urt people, or, perhaps, it had been deliberately allowed to vanish in time by the discoverers of the secret, that others could not reveal it, or take advantage of it, to their detriment.

18	162	An urt hurried down the stairs and darted along the side of the wall and through a crack in the wall.
1	316	Further, though there was much talk in the city of resistance, of the traditions of Ar, of her Home Stone, and such, I did not think that the people of Ar, stunned and confused by the apparently inexplicable succession of recent disasters, had the will to resist the Cosia...
1	317	Perhaps if there had been a Marlenus of Ar in the city, a Ubar, one to raise the people and lead them, there might have been hope.
1	334	The people in the street hurried to press against the walls.
1	340	It surprised me that the people were kneeling, for, commonly, free Goreans do not kneel, even in the temples of the Initiates.
1	431	"The people of Ar are frightened," said Marcus.
2	77	Too, of course, these days, in the vicinity of Ar, given the movements of Cos on the continent, and the consequent displacements and flights of people, there were medleys of accents in and about Ar.
2	106	The purpose of this display was to permit the people of Ar, and elsewhere, if they wished, to vent their displeasure upon the stone, insulting it, spitting upon it, and such.
6	35	What does it say?" "'Greetings from Lurius of Jad, Ubar of Cos, to the people of Glorious Ar,'" read a man, rather slowly, pointing to letters with his fingers, which led me to believe that his literacy was not likely to be much advanced over that of the other.

9	471	"Enemy of Ar, enemy of the people of Ar, enemy of the Home Stone of Ar, Claudia Tentia Hinrabia," said Talena, "you are to be embonded, and before nightfall".
9	594	The free, native population of Ar, though there are no certain figures on the matter even in the best of times, and, given the flight of many from the city, conjectures have become even more hazardous, is commonly estimated at between two and three million people.

15	4	Sometimes an urt, a small rodent, not like the large urts in the pool, scurried past.
18	266	"I am sorry that I had you whipped!" That had occurred in my first day in the depths, when she was still the occupant of a dangling slave cage, suspended over a pool to which large aquatic rodents, one variety of urt, had access.
19	896	"Is this your petty vengeance on a free woman," she asked, angrily, "you illiterate, stupid, sleek, embonded, collared little she-urt?" "I do not think I am smaller than you," I said.
19	898	"I, you illiterate, collared she-urt?" "You were brought here hooded," I said.

37	395	The woman was screaming, from within, over the urt pool.
37	404	From within, over the urt pool, we could still hear the screaming of the woman.
37	405	"It is a dead urt!" said a man, suddenly.
37	412	The urts now dragged the body of the dead urt, now half eaten, its bones about, to the wall, where they continued their feeding.
37	416	"How did the urt die?" asked a man.
37	424	"There is a quarrel in the urt!" said a man, suddenly, the beasts, in their feeding, moving about.

37	467	The prisoner had apparently lifted the panels to the urt nest, permitting them access to the walkway, the gate having been raised to permit them, or some at least, into the passageway, the gate then being lowered.
37	468	It is terribly dangerous, of course, to trap an urt against a barrier, as it will then fight with terrible ferocity.
37	473	By the time it had been determined that the victim was another urt the men would have been within range.
37	507	This new arrangement, that of five groups, made possible a more diversified deployment of the men, presumably an advantage on the walkway about the urt pool.
37	580	An urt, on the walkway, at their approach, had scrambled over the railing, and dived into the pool.
37	583	And I saw the wet, glistening head of an urt, just at the surface.
37	586	This was not the urt which had just entered the pool.
37	593	"urt!" cried Tira, pointing.
