"Is she whom you believed to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, she whom you identified as the Tatrix in Corcyrus itself, before the very throne of Corcyrus, in this room?" "Yes," said Drusus Rencius. |
10 |
| 33 | 679 |
How, except for such power, could a barbarian woman, such as Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus, come to power in a city such as Corcyrus? I suspect, also, that the true motivation of the attack on the mines of Argentum was not to fill the coffers of Corcyrus, already a prosperous city, but to su... |
10 |
| 4 | 369 |
Was I the Tatrix of Corcyrus? Susan, I was sure, believed me to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |

"In suit for the favor of Corcyrus, in deference and tribute to Corcyrus, Claudius, Ubar of Argentum," said Miles of Argentum, "sends this!" He flung open the great chest, and turned it to its side. |
10 |
| 6 | 31 |
The appearance of a player of the stature of Centius of Cos at the matches in a city such as Corcyrus, I gathered, had to do with the alliances between Cos and Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 9 | 40 |
"They call for the blood of the Tatrix of Corcyrus," she said, "whom they call tyranness and villainess of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 13 | 23 |
"It is Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "It is she!" "It is Sheila!" "It is Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus!" I moaned. |
10 |
| 14 | 39 |
"Villainess of Corcyrus! Tyranness of Corcyrus!" the people had cried. |
10 |
| 16 | 293 |
What sport then, I thought, must Drusus Rencius have had of me in Corcyrus! What a clever joke he had played upon me, the beast! Was that not a pleasant vengeance to take upon she who had so frequently discomfited him, she whom he then believed to be proud Sheila, the arrogant tatrix of Corcyrus? I ... |
10 |
| 33 | 130 |
"She is not the true Tatrix of Corcyrus! But the true Tatrix of Corcyrus is here, somewhere! I am sure of it!" "How do you know?" asked Claudius. |
10 |
| 33 | 331 |
"I believe that while you were in Corcyrus," said Miles, "one of your duties was to act as the personal bodyguard of Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 342 |
"Is the woman whom you believed to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and whom you testified in Corcyrus was the Tatrix, before the very throne itself, in this room?" Drusus Rencius was silent. |
10 |
| 33 | 441 |
When I was in Corcyrus and I received from Menicius, her Administrator, clothing which had been worn by the Tatrix, I divided it into two bundles and had each sealed with the seal of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 454 |
"I, too, have clothing from Corcyrus," said Ligurious, "but it is authentic clothing, clothing actually once worn by the true Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 804 |
By means of the wealth of beasts and the influence of Ligurious, the first minister of Corcyrus, I was brought to power in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 3 | 1 |
Corcyrus It was warm in the room. |
10 |
| 3 | 113 |
"In the city of Corcyrus," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 118 |
"In the country of Corcyrus," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 120 |
"You are then in the dominions of Corcyrus, Mistress," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 121 |
"Where is Corcyrus?" I asked. |
10 |
| 3 | 123 |
"Where is Corcyrus?" I asked. |
10 |
| 3 | 125 |
"We are in Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 127 |
"Corcyrus," said the girl, "is south of the Vosk. |
10 |
| 3 | 170 |
"Such bars are not unusual in the rooms of women in Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 305 |
"There are few chairs in Corcyrus," said the girl. |
10 |
| 3 | 399 |
"I am the slave of Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 531 |
"My Master is Ligurious, of the city of Corcyrus," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 554 |
Her master was Ligurious, of this city, said to be Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 3 | 739 |
"Who is she? Where am I? What am I doing here? What do you want of me?" "I am Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 3 | 745 |
"You need know little more of me than that I am the first minister of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 3 | 750 |
"In Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 3 | 751 |
"But where is Corcyrus?" I begged. |
10 |
| 3 | 821 |
Then I looked into the eyes of Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 3 | 1030 |
"Your quarters, even, are in the palace of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 1090 |
Lessons in the details of the governance of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 1104 |
"From this moment on," said the girl, "accustom yourself to thinking of yourself as Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 1105 |
"Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus?" I said. |
10 |
| 3 | 1110 |
"It is a great honor for me," said the girl, "to serve the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 3 | 1116 |
"Tatrix of Corcyrus?" "Yes," she said. |
10 |
| 3 | 1118 |
Who are you?" "I am Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," I whispered. |
10 |
| 4 | 1 |
A Night in Corcyrus I awakened, sometime late at night. |
10 |
| 4 | 2 |
I had been dreaming in Gorean, the language spoken in Corcyrus, and, I had learned, in much of this world. |
10 |
| 4 | 8 |
Supposedly I was Sheila, the Tatrix of this city, Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 14 |
In the past few days, gradually, I had been entered into the public life of Corcyrus, primarily in small things such as granting audiences, usually with foreigners, and making brief public appearances. |
10 |
| 4 | 19 |
Then let him be marched naked, before the spears of guards, through the great gate of Corcyrus, not to be permitted to return before the second passage hand!" This was the one case which I remembered the most clearly. |
10 |
| 4 | 30 |
Too, documents were found recording the purchase of quantities of slave hair, at suitable prices, some even within the city of Corcyrus itself. |
10 |
| 4 | 50 |
This omission seemed puzzling to me, from what I had learned of Gor, particularly in the case of a free woman of so lofty a station as a Tatrix, but I saw no real reason for objecting, particularly in the warm weather of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 58 |
At any rate, there was little doubt that the features of their Tatrix had now become well known in Corcyrus, at least to many of her citizens. |
10 |
| 4 | 59 |
Indeed, only this morning I, unveiled, in a large, open, silken palanquin, borne by slaves, Ligurious at my side, had been carried through the streets of Corcyrus, behind trumpets and drums, flanked by guards, through cheering crowds. |
10 |
| 4 | 115 |
There are several such in Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 4 | 134 |
"Hail Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" I heard. |
10 |
| 4 | 159 |
On what sort of world was this that I found myself! I had not known a woman could be so aroused! Again I looked at Drusus Rencius, and the others, guardsmen of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 167 |
I hoped that my condition was not evident to the stern, practical Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 178 |
"Down with Sheila, not Tatrix but Tyranness of Corcyrus!" cried the man, looking angrily upward. |
10 |
| 4 | 181 |
"Not forever will the citizens of Corcyrus brook the outrages of the palace!" "Treason!" cried Ligurious. |
10 |
| 4 | 191 |
"One who protests the crimes and injustice of Sheila, Tyranness of Corcyrus!" he said, boldly. |
10 |
| 4 | 195 |
"Are you of Corcyrus?" I asked. |
10 |
| 4 | 208 |
"That the truth might be spoken in Corcyrus," he said, "that the misery and anger of the people might be declared!" "Prepare his neck," said Ligurious. |
10 |
| 4 | 229 |
"What better evidence could we have of the falsity of the lunatic's accusations?" "Hail Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" cried the man who had snatched up the coin. |
10 |
| 4 | 231 |
"Hail Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" In a moment the retinue resumed its journey back to the palace. |
10 |
| 4 | 233 |
"Is there unrest in Corcyrus? Is there some discontentment among our citizens?" "You have surely received the reports of our officers," said Ligurious. |
10 |
| 4 | 237 |
Such reports, I recalled, unequivocally attested to the hardiness and health of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 248 |
"Hail Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "You see?" he asked. |
10 |
| 4 | 250 |
My heart, then, was flooded with elation, and with affection for the people of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 263 |
"But I am Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 4 | 269 |
"The name seems not to be of Corcyrus," I said. |
10 |
| 4 | 296 |
It bore the insignia of Corcyrus and of his standing in the guards, that of the third rank, the first rank to which authority is delegated. |
10 |
| 4 | 297 |
In the infantry of Corcyrus the fifth rank is commonly occupied for at least a year. |
10 |
| 4 | 349 |
"I am the Tatrix of Corcyrus," I had said to Ligurious, in the palanquin. |
10 |
| 4 | 351 |
How can I be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, I asked myself. |
10 |
| 4 | 356 |
I wondered if I were truly the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 367 |
"It is fitting that the proprieties of Corcyrus be respected by her Tatrix, even when they might appear arbitrary," had said Ligurious. |
10 |
| 4 | 372 |
By all, it seemed, I was accepted as the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 374 |
And had I wished further confirmation of my condition and status surely I had received it earlier today, from the very citizens of Corcyrus itself. |
10 |
| 4 | 375 |
"Hail Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" they had cried. |
10 |
| 4 | 376 |
"I am the Tatrix of Corcyrus," I had told Ligurious. |
10 |
| 4 | 378 |
Inexplicable and strange though it might seem, I decided that I was, truly, the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 434 |
"Do you think I do not see that you, in stripping her, would be, in effect, and to your lust and amusement, stripping me, and before my very eyes?" "Forgive me," smiled Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 4 | 448 |
Surely it seemed more believable that such a woman might hold power in a city such as Corcyrus than I. |
10 |
| 4 | 480 |
I then drew back and, my hands on the bars, looked out, across the rooftops of Corcyrus, to the walls of the city, and to the fields beyond. |
10 |
| 4 | 512 |
"I am the Tatrix of Corcyrus!" I said. |
10 |
| 5 | 14 |
I knew matters were tense between Corcyrus and Argentum. |
10 |
| 5 | 19 |
I straightened myself on the great throne of Corcyrus, on the high dais, in the great hall of the palace. |
10 |
| 5 | 23 |
About the throne, here and there, spilled on the steps of the dais, in the manner of Corcyrus and some other cities, was a tasteful display of riches, rich cloths, golden coins and some chained female slaves. |
10 |
| 5 | 28 |
"The throne of Corcyrus," said Ligurious, "greets the ambassador from Argentum, Miles, general of Argentum". |
10 |
| 5 | 29 |
"On behalf of Claudius, Ubar of Argentum," said Miles, "I accept the greetings of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 5 | 31 |
"Had I my will," he said, "I would have come to the walls of Corcyrus not with the scrolls of protest but the engines of war". |
10 |
| 5 | 32 |
"Beware the quickness of your tongue," said Ligurious, "for you rant now not in one of Argentum's taverns but in Corcyrus, and before the throne of her Tatrix". |
10 |
| 5 | 59 |
These mines were said to be almost as rich as those of Tharna, far to the north and east of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 5 | 64 |
"It is fortunate for Corcyrus, and for peace," said Ligurious, "that he with whom we truly have to deal is not Miles, general of Argentum, but with Claudius, her Ubar. |
10 |
| 5 | 68 |
"Corcyrus is not feared by Argentum," said Miles. |
10 |
| 5 | 78 |
"It is well known," said Miles, "that the Tatrix of Corcyrus is not interested in men, but only in gold and power". |
10 |
| 5 | 88 |
"How is it," inquired Miles, "that the Tatrix of Corcyrus goes unveiled?" "It is custom," said Ligurious. |
10 |
| 5 | 99 |
Let us see what gifts he proffers to Corcyrus, petitioning for our mercy and favor". |
10 |
| 5 | 107 |
"Surely Corcyrus needs no more riches," said Miles. |
10 |
| 5 | 111 |
"I see that there is gold in Corcyrus," he said, indicating the coins in their plenitudes, seemingly casually spilled about the steps. |
10 |
| 5 | 112 |
"I see, too," he said, "that there are beautiful slaves in Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 5 | 160 |
"There is nothing in them!" "And that," said Miles of Argentum, "is what Claudius, Ubar of Argentum, sends to Corcyrus!" "Insolence!" cried Ligurious. |
10 |
| 5 | 165 |
"I now leave Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 5 | 171 |
"Here," said Miles, reaching into a pocket on his belt, "if you of Corcyrus are so eager for the silver of Argentum, I will give you some". |
10 |
| 6 | 1 |
The Sirik "There are places you have not taken me in Corcyrus," I said to Drusus Rencius. |
10 |
| 6 | 2 |
We stood on the height of the walls of Corcyrus, on a stone riser behind the parapet, which permitted us to look out over the parapet, rather than through its apertures, on the surrounding fields. |
10 |
| 6 | 3 |
"Not all places in Corcyrus," he said, "are safe, particularly at night, and not all are suitable for the sensibilities of a free woman". |
10 |
| 6 | 137 |
I had seen much of Corcyrus in the past few days. |
10 |
| 6 | 276 |
"I could find it easy to despise you," he said, "and, at one time, from all that I had heard of the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and know of her governance of the city, I would have thought it would also be easy to hate you, but now, now that I have met you, I could not honestly say that I hate you". |
10 |
| 6 | 349 |
Aside from the markets and bazaars, and the theaters in the evening, I had seen much else of Corcyrus as well. |
10 |
| 6 | 584 |
I then turned about, to look back from the wall over the city of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 6 | 588 |
I looked over the roofs of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 6 | 602 |
I was a Tatrix! I looked down from the wall, over the many roofs of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 6 | 605 |
I surveyed Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 6 | 624 |
"How many slave girls do you suppose there are in Corcyrus?" I asked, as though idly. |
10 |
| 6 | 640 |
How I hated him! "There are places you have not taken me in Corcyrus," I reminded him. |
10 |
| 6 | 688 |
"If Lady Sheila is dissatisfied with my services," he said, "she need only call this to the attention of Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 6 | 691 |
I shall decide if, or when, you are relieved of your duties, or even if you are to be discharged entirely from the service of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 6 | 694 |
I am Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 6 | 797 |
"Here I would be alone with the Tatrix of Corcyrus, near saddled tarns," he said. |
10 |
| 7 | 51 |
"Indeed, I had not supposed that the Tatrix of Corcyrus would prove to be such a beauty". |
10 |
| 7 | 61 |
"The Tatrix of Corcyrus does not often remove cloaks for gentlemen," I informed him. |
10 |
| 7 | 65 |
"Few men," I said, "have looked upon the Tatrix of Corcyrus clad in this fashion". |
10 |
| 7 | 101 |
"No one will know, even high members of the staff, will they," I asked, "that I am actually the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 7 | 144 |
"You would have the Tatrix of Corcyrus drink unsweetened slave wine?" I asked. |
10 |
| 7 | 238 |
It was locked on me, and well, but I was the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 8 | 31 |
"This is one of the better, and more respectable of the slave houses in Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 8 | 627 |
"Corcyrus," he said, "has seized the mines of Argentum. |
10 |
| 9 | 48 |
"Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus," announced a voice, that of a guard. |
10 |
| 9 | 90 |
You are loved in Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 9 | 91 |
"Each of our victories," I said, "seems to occur closer to Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 9 | 100 |
I, as earlier, apparently in accord with the public customs of Corcyrus, had been unveiled. |
10 |
| 9 | 113 |
"They lie within a hundred pasangs of Corcyrus," I said. |
10 |
| 10 | 1 |
I Have Taken Cognizance in Corcyrus; We are Returning to the Palace Through the darkened street, along the crooked way, Drusus Rencius and I were making our way back to the palace. |
10 |
| 10 | 13 |
They discounted and belittled rumors of discontentment or unrest in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 10 | 14 |
Things in Corcyrus, it seemed, were much as Ligurious had assured me. |
10 |
| 10 | 164 |
"Such are the answers to be given to such questions in Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 10 | 216 |
"The enemy is already within twenty pasangs of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 11 | 33 |
"Ligurious, first minister of Corcyrus," announced a guard, from the other side of the door. |
10 |
| 11 | 106 |
"Perhaps she should be Tatrix of Corcyrus, and not I," I said, angrily. |
10 |
| 11 | 109 |
"I am the Tatrix of Corcyrus, am I not?" I asked. |
10 |
| 11 | 114 |
"Then I am truly the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 11 | 200 |
In the slippers, interestingly, I felt again the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 11 | 210 |
"You are still being trained in the governance of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 11 | 213 |
"The enemy," I said, suddenly, almost faltering, "is within twenty pasangs of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 11 | 240 |
Was the enemy so bitter, so determined? What had driven them to these passions of war? What was it that they desired in Corcyrus? "Sue for peace!" I said. |
10 |
| 11 | 245 |
"Am I not the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" I demanded. |
10 |
| 11 | 247 |
"Do I not rule in Corcyrus?" I asked. |
10 |
| 11 | 249 |
"I rule in Corcyrus," I said. |
10 |
| 11 | 261 |
I wondered what it was that they wanted, so keenly, so determinedly, in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 12 | 59 |
Ligurious turned me, so that I faced the door to the great hall, where, on the lofty dais, reposed the throne of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 12 | 109 |
"It is a ram," said he, "doubtless slung from a cradle, drawn by ropes, doubtless with a will by citizens of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 12 | 112 |
"The citizens of Corcyrus love me," I said. |
10 |
| 12 | 124 |
"Farewell, Lady Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 13 | 15 |
"Miles, General of Argentum, Victor over Corcyrus!" announced a soldier. |
10 |
| 13 | 20 |
"Greetings, Sheila," he said, "Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 13 | 22 |
"My name is Tiffany Collins!" "She is Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" cried men in the crowd. |
10 |
| 13 | 33 |
On the other hand, Corcyrus had now fallen. |
10 |
| 13 | 38 |
"Greetings, Lady Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 13 | 53 |
"You are Susan, are you not," inquired Miles of Argentum, "who was as personal serving slave to Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" "Yes, Master," she said. |
10 |
| 13 | 62 |
"She is she who was to me as Mistress," said Susan, sobbing, "she whom I served, Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 13 | 88 |
Twice, I knew, suddenly realizing it now, he could have stolen me from Corcyrus, delivering me to Argentum, once when we were on the walls near the tarn perches and once, later, when, my whereabouts unknown to Ligurious and others, I had been in the house of Kliomenes, braceleted, half naked and hel... |
10 |
| 13 | 90 |
It seemed rather he had, for whatever reason or reasons, preferred, as he had once remarked on the walls of Corcyrus, to let the game take its course. |
10 |
| 13 | 105 |
"She is Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius. |
10 |
| 13 | 132 |
"Behold the Tatrix of Corcyrus," called Miles of Argentum, indicating me with a sweeping gesture, "helpless, and in chains!" There was a wild cheer from the crowd, almost a shriek, as though for blood. |
10 |
| 13 | 170 |
"In this cage, Lady Sheila," said Miles of Argentum, "you will be paraded through the streets of Corcyrus, exhibited in our triumph. |
10 |
| 14 | 10 |
I had been dreaming that I was again being carried in the cage through the streets of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 14 | 16 |
The people of Corcyrus, it was clear, had welcomed the men of Argentum, and their allies from Ar, as liberators. |
10 |
| 14 | 24 |
I had dreamed I was being again carried through the streets of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 14 | 34 |
We were one day out of Corcyrus, on the march to Argentum. |
10 |
| 14 | 66 |
What if they were men of Corcyrus who wished to return me to the city, there to subject me to secret and horrifying tortures which might shame the agonies of an impaling spear on the walls of Argentum? I did not know whether to cry out or not. |
10 |
| 14 | 121 |
Too, of course, she might be a girl even from Corcyrus, or another community, perhaps a paga girl. |
10 |
| 14 | 189 |
"Farewell," said he, "Lady Sheila, villainess and tyranness of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 15 | 12 |
This was perhaps because it was still within the range of Corcyrus, and perhaps, too, because of a special captive, a Tatrix, thought to be chained in a suspended cage. |
10 |
| 16 | 16 |
I decided to risk a third day in the basket, to put even more hundreds of pasangs between me and Argentum and Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 16 | 195 |
I did not want to identify myself with Corcyrus, of course, or any cities or towns in that area, even Argentum. |
10 |
| 16 | 282 |
I remembered this name from the time that Drusus Rencius had taken me to the house of Kliomenes in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 16 | 283 |
It was the name he had chosen for me there, Lady Lita, of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 17 | 27 |
I feared for a moment he might recognize me as Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 17 | 31 |
How far I was from the department store, from my apartment, from my world! And how far, too, I found myself from the luxury, the display, the ceremony and glory, the spectacle, of mysterious Corcyrus; how far from the corridors of a guarded palace, from the resplendent, cumbersome pomp of state robe... |
10 |
| 17 | 35 |
I was chained as though I might be a slave! I trusted that no one would recognize in this pathetic, slim, exposed, shackled woman, so utterly helpless, the notorious and avidly sought fugitive tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 17 | 41 |
And in Corcyrus, and the camp of Miles of Argentum, thousands must have seen me! Muchly did I bemoan my fate. |
10 |
| 17 | 63 |
I trusted no one would recognize in me the fugitive Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 17 | 299 |
Then let him be marched naked, before the spears of guards, through the great gate of Corcyrus, not to be permitted to return before the second passage hand!" But I could not run now. |
10 |
| 18 | 30 |
"You are Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "No," I whispered. |
10 |
| 18 | 39 |
"It is pleasant for one such as I to be called 'Sir' by the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 18 | 71 |
"It will be delicious," he said, "having the Tatrix of Corcyrus, a free woman, serve me as though she might be a mere slave, and with the full offices and services of the slave". |
10 |
| 18 | 144 |
After all, I was a free woman, and the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 18 | 190 |
"I, Speusippus," he said, whispering intimately to me, "have the Tatrix of Corcyrus naked and on a slave leash". |
10 |
| 18 | 232 |
"The lofty Tatrix of Corcyrus now better, I think, understands her relationship to me. |
10 |
| 19 | 23 |
I had not had clothing since shortly after my capture in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 19 | 38 |
"Now say, 'I, Lady Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, kneel naked, my knees open, before Speusippus of Turia. |
10 |
| 19 | 39 |
'" "I, Lady Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," I said, "kneel naked, my knees open, before Speusippus of Turia". |
10 |
| 19 | 41 |
"Do you remember sentencing me, in Corcyrus?" "Yes, Master," I said. |
10 |
| 19 | 62 |
"Enslave me! Give me no choice! Do not make me do this of my own will!" "Say," he said, "'I, Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus, naked and on my belly, of my own free will, beg to please Speusippus of Turia. |
10 |
| 19 | 63 |
'" "I, Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," I said, "naked and on my belly, of my own free will, beg to please Speusippus of Turia". |
10 |
| 19 | 153 |
For most practical purposes, as he had treated me, even though technically I might be the Tatrix of Corcyrus, I was a half-starved slave. |
10 |
| 19 | 154 |
"I never thought to have the Tatrix of Corcyrus naked and in my trunk," he said. |
10 |
| 19 | 175 |
"Sleep tight in your kennel, Lady Sheila, lofty Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 19 | 228 |
I wondered if, as Publius, of the house of Kliomenes in Corcyrus, had thought, I might be a natural slave. |
10 |
| 19 | 270 |
I was not a slave! I was a free woman! Yet I must serve him as a slave! How rich, how glorious, was his vengeance on the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 19 | 288 |
Now it was my turn, that of the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 19 | 292 |
Here I, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, doubtless to the amusement of Speusippus, would squirm, and sweat and stink no differently from a slave. |
10 |
| 19 | 302 |
I was the Tatrix of Corcyrus! And yet I had been worked like a slave, and used like a slave, and had served as a slave! I had been degraded and humiliated. |
10 |
| 20 | 10 |
It amused him putting me, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, to work in this fashion. |
10 |
| 20 | 29 |
"Remember that you are the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and not a slave," he had later said to me, when I was humbly serving him his supper. |
10 |
| 20 | 37 |
It must have amused him to see the Tatrix of Corcyrus so zealous to please him, so much in his power. |
10 |
| 20 | 152 |
"Remember that you are the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and not a slave," he had said. |
10 |
| 20 | 182 |
Would it not be a splendid jest, now, to take Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, to the shop of a metal worker, to see her writhe and scream under the iron, to have her fitted with a collar and then lock it on her throat, to make her an actual slave? But he did not seem to have any intention of doing s... |
10 |
| 20 | 195 |
"You have heard about the escape of the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" she asked. |
10 |
| 21 | 47 |
Besides, who would believe that he had ever had the Tatrix of Corcyrus in his keeping? They would surely think him mad. |
10 |
| 23 | 161 |
I recalled kneeling at the foot of the couch in Corcyrus and lifting and kissing, tenderly, the slave ring bolted into its massive, sturdy frame. |
10 |
| 23 | 285 |
I did not think anyone would think of looking in a mill for the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and certainly not one in Ar. |
10 |
| 29 | 121 |
"Sheila," said Hassan, "the former Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 29 | 144 |
Too, I fear for poor Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 29 | 173 |
"Have you ever seen the Tatrix of Corcyrus, Master?" I asked, beginning to twist under his hands. |
10 |
| 29 | 216 |
"In Corcyrus," he said, "I was furnished with clothing which she had worn. |
10 |
| 29 | 227 |
"She must be in Cos, or Tyros, places allied to Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 29 | 260 |
"Your resemblance to the Tatrix of Corcyrus is interesting," he said. |
10 |
| 29 | 302 |
I had been in the very arms of the man who sought Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, and he had not recognized me. |
10 |
| 29 | 304 |
Perhaps even little Susan would not recognize the lofty Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, in the collared, branded, trained, lascivious pleasure slut, Tiffany, a girl of Feast Slaves, of the Enterprises of Aemilianus, the Plaza of Tarns. |
10 |
| 30 | 1 |
Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus "Why are you fearful?" asked Claudia. |
10 |
| 30 | 526 |
He had had clothing, from the Tatrix, furnished to him from Corcyrus, presumably from her very chambers. |
10 |
| 30 | 532 |
I had been told that I was Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, that this, here, on Gor, was to be my identity. |
10 |
| 30 | 534 |
The experience which I had originally taken to be a dream, when I had been drugged, early in my stay in Corcyrus, I now understood had probably not been a dream at all, but my recollection of being inspected, in my half-conscious, drugged state, by Ligurious and Sheila. |
10 |
| 30 | 541 |
These were times when the real Sheila was abroad in the palace, and doubtless attending to the governance of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 30 | 543 |
It was not, really, that I was not ready for such things, but, rather, that it would be absurd that I, not being the true Tatrix of Corcyrus, should concern myself with them. |
10 |
| 30 | 553 |
What I had not realized until now was that she must also have been the true Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 30 | 559 |
If things should go badly in Corcyrus for Ligurious and the Tatrix, if the people should rise, if the projected war for the mines of Argentum, which must have been truly theirs, turned out badly, they might escape, leaving behind them a pretty little proxy, a naive surrogate, on which enraged multit... |
10 |
| 30 | 561 |
They had brought me to believe, even, that I actually was Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, that that, on Gor, at least, was my identity. |
10 |
| 30 | 563 |
How well they had planned! My features, even, had been frequently and publicly exposed in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 30 | 568 |
Thus, instead of the matter of Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, supposedly being concluded with an impalement on the walls of Argentum, following which Ligurious and the real Sheila, under new identities, and doubtless with salvaged riches, might proceed almost wherever they might please, an intensiv... |
10 |
| 30 | 602 |
"To Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Miles. |
10 |
| 30 | 611 |
"Is this Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" asked Miles. |
10 |
| 30 | 628 |
"Is it Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" asked Miles of Argentum. |
10 |
| 30 | 642 |
"I think," he said to Drusus Rencius, "this may be Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 30 | 643 |
"Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius, "has been captured". |
10 |
| 31 | 132 |
"You startled me! I am not Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus! I am Tiffany, only a slave, Tiffany, only of Feast Slaves, of the Enterprises of Aemilianus!" "Of course," he smiled. |
10 |
| 31 | 134 |
I saw he believed me to be Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 31 | 140 |
"If you are not Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said, "you have nothing to fear". |
10 |
| 31 | 151 |
"I wonder if Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, has been trained," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 156 |
"Do you know where the Tatrix of Corcyrus is?" he asked. |
10 |
| 31 | 166 |
"I wonder whatever became of Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 180 |
"We are going to pretend that you are Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he smiled. |
10 |
| 31 | 194 |
"Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 31 | 221 |
"I am Sheila," I said, "the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 31 | 266 |
"Sheila," I said, "Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "I know," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 338 |
"It is pleasant to have the Tatrix of Corcyrus naked and on my leash," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 346 |
"Does Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, beg to perform on her leash for Miles, general of Argentum?" he inquired. |
10 |
| 31 | 382 |
"I greet you, Lady Sheila, Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 445 |
Please!" "Does Lady Sheila, the lofty and proud Tatrix of Corcyrus, desire to yield to me as a slave?" he asked. |
10 |
| 31 | 456 |
"It is pleasant to enjoy the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 464 |
"It is pleasant to have had the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 31 | 514 |
Though he had not spoken to me, save to summon me imperiously to him, I had little doubt that he was still thinking of me in terms of Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 31 | 547 |
He seemed to think of me not as the helpless and lowly slave I was, a mere girl rented for his pleasure for an evening, but as though I were a high lady and free captive, Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus, who was then, perhaps in his vengeance on her for her escape from his camp, to be humiliated and ... |
10 |
| 31 | 559 |
It was not my fault if I bore some remote resemblance to Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 31 | 718 |
What a tribute to their attractiveness, and their skills as a slave! How they must compete with one another, I thought, to become the favorite! But how much better, I thought, to be the single slave of one's master, and to learn him, and serve him, with heat and devotion, regularly, day in and day o... |
10 |
| 31 | 744 |
"It is not my fault if I bear a resemblance to Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," I said. |
10 |
| 31 | 761 |
These seem suitable tasks for the former Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 52 |
"It is I, Ligurious, once first minister of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 32 | 73 |
In return for immunity I have volunteered to give evidence for the state of Argentum in the identification of the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 76 |
There is some dispute, you see, as to who is the true Tatrix of Corcyrus, she who is even now suspended in the golden sack near the ceiling in this very room, or yourself, helpless now before me on the tiles. |
10 |
| 32 | 81 |
Similarly I have had clothing smuggled out of Corcyrus, clothing which you wore. |
10 |
| 32 | 82 |
This will be presented to Claudius, the Ubar, and the high council, as the clothing of the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 153 |
It was the first time I had well looked on the former Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 232 |
Behind him, naked, bound hand and foot, gagged, kneeling, was Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 242 |
"I am not the Tatrix of Corcyrus," I said. |
10 |
| 32 | 246 |
"He is with his cronies from Corcyrus, those pretending to be envoys from Turia," he said. |
10 |
| 32 | 294 |
I knew that I loved him, and had loved him, even from so long ago as the corridors, the chambers, the stadiums, the theaters, the high, broad walls, of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 32 | 321 |
"It is a long time since Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 32 | 330 |
"Perhaps you are the Tatrix of Corcyrus," he mused. |
10 |
| 32 | 340 |
"I was not the Tatrix of Corcyrus!" I said. |
10 |
| 33 | 8 |
Interestingly enough, Aemilianus of Ar, who had once been my master, was there, and Publius, who had been the house master in the house of Kliomenes, in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 22 |
Months ago the unprovoked aggression of Corcyrus, seeking the silver of Argentum, was repelled. |
10 |
| 33 | 23 |
Further, to ensure our security, and to prevent a repetition of this form of aggression, we fought our way to, and through, the gate of Corcyrus itself. |
10 |
| 33 | 24 |
There, abetted by the people of that city, we defeated the forces of the Tatrix of Corcyrus and overthrew her tyrannous regime". |
10 |
| 33 | 27 |
"The ties of Corcyrus with Cos have now been severed," said Claudius. |
10 |
| 33 | 40 |
"The villainess in this matter, the culprit, the instigator of these hostilities, was Sheila, the cruel and wicked Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 42 |
"She was captured in Corcyrus but, en route to Argentum, escaped. |
10 |
| 33 | 54 |
"It is now time," said Claudius, "to have Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus, presented before her conquerors, to await their pleasure!" There was applause. |
10 |
| 33 | 57 |
"Many of you know me," said Ligurious, "if only by reputation, as the former first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 58 |
What many of you may not know is that I was also the secret leader of the resistance in Corcyrus to the rule of Sheila, the Tatrix. |
10 |
| 33 | 84 |
"Yes," he said, "that is she! That is the infamous Tatrix of Corcyrus!" She uttered wild, tiny, desperate, muted sounds, shaking her head wildly. |
10 |
| 33 | 125 |
"Do you believe her to be the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" asked Claudius. |
10 |
| 33 | 126 |
"I believe that she was the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Hassan, "yes". |
10 |
| 33 | 135 |
"My Ubar," said Miles of Argentum, rising to his feet, "reluctant as I am to agree with the former first minister of Corcyrus, and doubtless one of the finest liars on Gor, I think it not impossible that he may have seen Sheila about in the palace, perhaps on her hands and knees scrubbing tiles in a... |
10 |
| 33 | 146 |
"There," cried Ligurious in triumph, "that is the true Sheila, the true Tatrix of Corcyrus!" "Do you not think you should examine her somewhat more closely?" asked Drusus Rencius. |
10 |
| 33 | 171 |
"I submit, my Ubar," said Miles of Argentum, "that the woman on your left, she with the shorter hair, is she before whom I appeared in Corcyrus, when I brought, at your request, the scrolls of protest to that city". |
10 |
| 33 | 175 |
She is Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 179 |
She is Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 194 |
"That is the woman whom I saw in Corcyrus when I carried there the scrolls of Argentum," said Miles, pointing to me. |
10 |
| 33 | 200 |
"I do not dispute that you saw her in Corcyrus, that you later captured her, that you had her placed in a golden cage, and such things. |
10 |
| 33 | 201 |
What I dispute is that she was the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 214 |
"Is that the woman whom you served in Corcyrus?" Miles asked her, pointing to me. |
10 |
| 33 | 240 |
"From what you know of her," he asked, "do you think she could be guilty of the enormities and crimes commonly charged against the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" "No, Master," she said, happily. |
10 |
| 33 | 246 |
What I am suggesting is that you do not really know that she was the true Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 250 |
"Do you regard it as likely, Susan," asked Miles of Argentum, "that that woman was the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" "Yes, Master," she said. |
10 |
| 33 | 269 |
"You were, several months ago, were you not, found guilty of certain alleged commercial irregularities in the city of Corcyrus, and banished for a time from the city?" "Yes," said Speusippus. |
10 |
| 33 | 272 |
"Who found you guilty, and pronounced this sentence?" "Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Speusippus. |
10 |
| 33 | 273 |
"Is she who was the Tatrix of Corcyrus in this room?" asked Miles of Argentum. |
10 |
| 33 | 311 |
"Let it be noted," said Miles of Argentum, "that the witness unhesitantly identified her as Sheila, the former Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 314 |
"I call now my fourth witness," said Miles of Argentum, "Ligurious, former first minister of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 315 |
He, if no one else, should know the true Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 320 |
"That is Sheila, who was the true Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 329 |
"The same who was on detached service to Argentum, and was engaged in espionage within the walls of Corcyrus?" asked Miles. |
10 |
| 33 | 332 |
"I was assigned the post of guarding one whom I at that time thought was Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus," said Drusus Rencius. |
10 |
| 33 | 334 |
I think that I, and many others, including yourself, were confused and misled by the brilliance of Ligurious, Corcyrus's first minister. |
10 |
| 33 | 343 |
"As you may have noted," said Miles, "Publius, the house master of the house of Kliomenes, of Corcyrus, is in the room. |
10 |
| 33 | 351 |
The descriptions tallied, of course, with those available of the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 357 |
You can still deny that she who is here chained is she whom you then took to the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 375 |
What sort of evidence would you wish? How do we know, for example, that you are really Drusus Rencius, a captain from Ar? Or that I am Miles, a general from Argentum? Or that he is Ligurious, who was the first minister in Corcyrus? How do we know anyone in this room is who we think? Perhaps we are a... |
10 |
| 33 | 376 |
And it is clear beyond a doubt, clear to the point of rational certainty, that that was the Tatrix of Corcyrus!" There was applause in the room. |
10 |
| 33 | 379 |
"In your opinion, Susan," he asked, "did the shorter-haired slave, she kneeling there in chains, she whom you served, regard herself as Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 383 |
I had regarded myself as Sheila, the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 385 |
I supposed that, in a sense, I was a Sheila, who had been a Tatrix in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 389 |
"She herself," said Miles of Argentum, "regarded herself as the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 391 |
"Why do you think she was not the Tatrix of Corcyrus?" asked Miles. |
10 |
| 33 | 395 |
"I have known her from Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 396 |
She is petty, and belongs in a collar, and under the whip, but she is not the sort of woman who could have committed the enormities and outrages of the Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 407 |
"Behold she who was the Tatrix of Corcyrus!" There was much applause in the room. |
10 |
| 33 | 438 |
Much of what Ligurious, the former first minister of Corcyrus, has told you is true, for example, about sleen, and their limitations and utilities. |
10 |
| 33 | 442 |
A letter to this effect, signed by Menicius, and bearing, too, the seal of Corcyrus, I also obtained. |
10 |
| 33 | 443 |
One of these bundles I broke open in Ar, and used it to locate and capture the former Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 446 |
"Do you still have the second bundle, unopened, and the letter from Menicius, Administrator of Corcyrus, in your possession?" asked Claudius of Hassan. |
10 |
| 33 | 451 |
He, whoever he might be, was now apparently Administrator in Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 499 |
I have here, however, and I now break the seal, clothing which is actually that of the former Tatrix of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 501 |
She knows that by this clothing she will be exactly and incontrovertibly identified as the former true Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 507 |
I also saw there garments which looked like those I had worn to the song drama with Drusus Rencius, and had worn later with him on the walls of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 517 |
The last garment, for example, was undoubtedly really that which had been taken from me in the throne room of Corcyrus, before the very throne itself, before I had been taken naked and in chains outside, into the courtyard, to be placed in a golden cage. |
10 |
| 33 | 518 |
These garments, Ligurious had informed me in the throne room of Argentum, before placing me in the golden sack, from which I had been rescued by Drusus Rencius, had been smuggled out of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 551 |
I was not a warrior! I was a girl, and a slave! "Thus, you see," said Ligurious, "who was the true Tatrix of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 554 |
"See which bears the true seal of Corcyrus!" The broken seals were brought to Claudius. |
10 |
| 33 | 557 |
"The seal broken from the package of Ligurious," he said, "is the seal of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 564 |
That letter bears the signature of Menicius and is marked with the true seal of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 567 |
"It is the seal of Corcyrus," said Claudius. |
10 |
| 33 | 578 |
"Some of you were present at my investiture as Administrator of Corcyrus". |
10 |
| 33 | 581 |
"My dear Ligurious," said Menicius, "your confederate in Corcyrus is now in custody. |
10 |
| 33 | 587 |
He was the man whose life I had spared, when he had spoken out so forcibly against the Tatrix, on that day, so long ago, when I had been in the palanquin with Ligurious, that day in which, in the glory of a state procession, we had been carried through the streets of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 599 |
They are imprints of the new seal of Corcyrus. |
10 |
| 33 | 600 |
It was discovered, after the institution of the new regime in Corcyrus, that the old seal was missing. |
10 |
| 33 | 603 |
For this reason, and also to commemorate the rise of a new order in Corcyrus, it was changed". |
10 |
| 33 | 625 |
"These are further garments from Corcyrus," he said. |
10 |
| 33 | 626 |
"They were taken from among the belongings of the Tatrix of Corcyrus, found in her suite of rooms in the palace". |
10 |
| 33 | 646 |
"The Tatrix of Corcyrus, on the other hand, though a barbarian, was apparently permitted to keep this clothing. |
10 |
| 33 | 686 |
Outside of Corcyrus, in a great field, have been found burned grass and three large, deep, geometrically spaced depressions, as though something of great heat and weight, perhaps some giant, heated steel insect or fiery mechanical bird, had alighted there. |
