The arrows lay before me, loose in the leather wrapper opened before me on the reeds of the rence craft. - (Raiders of Gor, Chapter 8, Sentence #16)

I had told Telima to make the rence craft sturdy, wider than usual, stabler. I was not a rencer and, when possible, when using the bow, I intended to stand; indeed, it is difficult to draw the bow cleanly in any but a standing position; it is not the small, straight bow used in hunting light game, tabuk, slaves, and such. I was pleased with the craft, and, not more than an Ahn after we had returned to the island from our concealment in the marsh, Telima poled us away from its shore, setting our course in the wake of the narrow, high-prowed marsh barges of the slavers of Port Kar. The arrows lay before me, loose in the leather wrapper opened before me on the reeds of the rence craft. In my hand was the great bow. I had not yet strung it. * * * * The oar-master of the sixth barge was doubtless angry. - (Raiders of Gor)
