A hundred Pani must have leapt into the galley, which rocked and almost capsized. - (Mariners of Gor, Chapter 16, Sentence #101)

The boarding party below had been armed, of course, but on the great ship itself, on deck, few were armed, only the officers, some guards, and the deck watch.

A hundred Pani must have leapt into the galley, which rocked and almost capsized. The enemy, I gathered, had not expected a vessel the size of the ship of Tersites, and many stood confused below, crying out, and shaking their weapons. This was no ascent of a few feet, to the deck of a common round ship, or that of the batten-sailed ships of the sort with which we had familiarized ourselves in the Vine Sea. Some grapnels, on knotted rope, were slung upward from the galley, but fell short. - (Mariners of Gor)
