If one had encountered him in the eighteenth century, one might have taken him for a jolly, snuff-sniffing, roisterous country squire, knowing himself the salt of the earth, not above twitting the parson nor pinching the serving girls; in the nineteenth century he would have owned an old book shop a... |

"I am sorry, Lady Aphris," said he, "but under the circumstances—" She looked about, and then it seemed she saw Kamchak. |

"Please, if you wish, Lady Aphris, join us," wheezed Saphrar. |
10 |

"All right," said Saphrar, his eyes cast down, as though making a decision against his better judgment, "I will permit my ward, the Lady Aphris of Turia, to stand at the stake in Love War". |

The auctioneer, as though desperately, tried to do his best for the girl, but soon jeers were forthcoming from the crowd, hissings and shoutings; when her blanket was removed from her, gracefully by the auctioneer, as though removing an expensive wrap from a lady of pearls and sophistication, she sl... |

"May I present," asked Chenbar, indicating the veiled, robed girl sitting to one side, "the Lady Vivina?" "I do not wish to be presented to a tarsk of Port Kar," hissed the girl. |
10 |
| 13 | 61 |
"May I present, Captain," said Chenbar, "the Lady Vivina?" She dropped her head, and then lifted it. |
10 |
| 13 | 65 |
When she had regained her seat, I said, "Your extraordinary beauty, High Lady, which, forgive me, your veil but scarcely conceals, is indeed worthy of a Ubar of Cos—" Lurius grinned. |
10 |

"I will be Ubara!" "I wish you happiness, High Lady," I said, dropping my head. |

"Many a fine lady," I said, "under the whip of the kitchen master, has found herself completely mistaken in such a conjecture". |

"Surely you have wondered, lovely lady," I said, "what it would be to be a slave, to be owned, to kneel naked before a man, in chains, a brand on your thigh, a collar on your neck, knowing you are his, and must obey him completely and perfectly—and in all things, all things, completely and pe... |

He, as I, had little doubt that there was a slave in the young, lovely Lady Vivina, her deepest self, which required only its liberation. |
10 |

"The Lady Vivina, as you doubtless know, is promised to Lurius, Ubar of Cos," said Chenbar. |
10 |
| 13 | 182 |
The girl, Lady Vivina, threw back her head and laughed merrily. |
10 |
| 13 | 193 |
"Have you not forgotten," he asked, "to bid the Lady Vivina farewell?" I looked at Chenbar. |
10 |
| 13 | 204 |
"When," I asked, "High Lady, will you drink the wine of the Free Companionship with Lurius, noble Ubar of Cos?" "I shall return first to Tyros," she said, "where I shall be made ready. |
10 |
| 13 | 206 |
"May I wish you, Lady," said I, "a safe and pleasant voyage, and much future happiness". |
10 |

"Farewell, Lady," said I. |
10 |

But in all this time I had not forgotten the treasure fleet which was due to sail from Tyros to Cos, bearing precious metals and jewels for her coffers, and a lovely lady, Vivina, to grace the couch of her Ubar. |
10 |
| 14 | 364 |
"The Lady Vivina," said he, "asks to be presented to you". |
10 |
| 14 | 369 |
When I lifted my head again I discovered that the Lady Vivina was, and had been, standing before me. |
10 |
| 14 | 376 |
Then she caught herself and presented herself before me, as a high-born lady. |
10 |
| 14 | 403 |
"The Lady Vivina," I said to him, "will of course grace the prow of this ship, the flagship of the treasure fleet". |
10 |
| 14 | 409 |
Men laid hands on the two girls behind the Lady Vivina, and they cried out with fear. |
10 |
| 14 | 411 |
"Captain!" said the Lady Vivina. |
10 |
| 14 | 433 |
She, the proud Lady Vivina, then stood before me, held, helpless, face-stripped. |
10 |
| 14 | 444 |
I looked down into the face of the Lady Vivina, who was beautiful. |
10 |
| 14 | 450 |
The Lady Vivina, to one side, was being readied for the prow. |
10 |
| 14 | 485 |
The Lady Vivina, prepared for the prow, stood nearby, a sailor's hand on her arm, she, too, watching the approaching ships. |
10 |
| 14 | 486 |
Then the admiral cried out with rage and the Lady Vivina, her hand at her breast, eyes horrified, cried out, "No, No!" The twelve ships had put about, taking their course now for Cos. |
10 |
| 14 | 489 |
I looked on the Lady Vivina. |
10 |
| 15 | 20 |
Near me, chief among my prizes, exposed to the crowds, their hootings and jeerings, bound on the prow, ankles and wrists, neck and belly, like a common slave girl, was the Lady Vivina, who was to have been the Ubara of Cos. |
10 |
| 15 | 62 |
"Take this lady," said I to them, "in a long boat to the largest of the round ships, one rowed by captured officers of the treasure fleet, and chain her there, with other treasures, in the rowing hold". |
10 |
| 15 | 67 |
"You may conduct the Lady Vivina to her quarters," I told the seaman responsible for her. |
10 |
| 15 | 469 |
There was a rustle of chain and the Lady Vivina, to the pleasure of the tables, was conducted before me. |
10 |
| 15 | 475 |
I looked upon the Lady Vivina. |
10 |
| 15 | 484 |
"Greetings, Lady Vivina," said I to her. |
10 |
| 15 | 514 |
But now my attention was on the girl Vina, once the Lady Vivina, once to have been the Ubara of Cos, now only female slave in the house of Bosk, he of Port Kar. |
10 |
| 15 | 532 |
The Lady Vivina stood before me clad in the garment of a Kettle Slave. |
10 |
| 15 | 535 |
Enraged, red with shame, her fists clenched, in the brief garment of the Kettle Slave, the Lady Vivina stood before us. |
10 |
| 15 | 546 |
The Lady Vivina looked on me with fury. |
10 |
| 15 | 583 |
"I am the Lady Vivina of Kasra!" she cried. |
10 |

At the entryway to that passage leading to the kitchens he stopped, and then, as she laughed and kissed him, he, holding her close to him, in his arms, swept her, once the Lady Vivina, who was to have been the Ubara of Cos, now only a young, collared slave girl, in a brief, miserable garment, throug... |
10 |

And I do not doubt that the Lady Vivina would have found the couch of the Ubar of Cos less joyful than did the slave girl Vina the blanket and the mat of the kitchen boy, Fish, in the house of Bosk, a captain of Port Kar. |

"The Lady Rena of Lydius," said Targo, "of the Builders". |

His new girl, the Lady Rena of Lydius, would net him fifty-five gold pieces if she could be delivered in Ar to her captain from Tyros. |
10 |
| 8 | 850 |
This time, when I fed the new girl, the former Lady Rena of Lydius, I permitted her to eat at her own pace, and gave her the water bag more than once. |
10 |
| 11 | 37 |
The Lady Rena of Lydius flung herself naked, on her knees, before Targo. |
10 |
| 11 | 42 |
"No!" A guard dragged the distraught Lady Rena of Lydius, a slave girl, back to her place in the line. |
10 |
| 11 | 72 |
The Lady Rena of Lydius now left the platform, the rods fixed in her ear wounds. |
10 |
| 11 | 79 |
I had no impulse to comfort the Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |
| 11 | 120 |
Ute was kneeling beside the Lady Rena of Lydius, who seemed uncontrollable. |
10 |
| 11 | 126 |
"I hate Turians," screamed the Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |
| 11 | 129 |
The Lady Rena put down her head, weeping. |
10 |
| 11 | 138 |
"I hate Turians!" screamed the Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |
| 11 | 142 |
"Do not cry so, Lady Rena," said Ute to the girl. |
10 |
| 11 | 296 |
"What of me?" asked the Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |
| 11 | 608 |
It also interested me, even astonished me, to see the fervor and skill brought to her training by the refined Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |
| 11 | 1376 |
And when I had attempted to steal that of the Lady Rena of Lydius, unseen by Rena, Ute's hand had closed on my wrist. |
10 |
| 12 | 135 |
"I, too," said the Lady Rena, excited. |
10 |
| 12 | 138 |
The Lady Rena of Lydius, like the rest of us, was only a naked girl, a slave, chained in a wagon, destined for the touch of a master. |
10 |

"I will bring a higher price if I am sold white silk!" "You mistake me, Lady," said he, courteously, "if you think that I am interested only in gold". |

Among the new slave girls brought to the camp were Inge and the Lady Rena of Lydius! Lana had not been captured. |
10 |

"Yes," said the Lady Rena of Lydius. |
10 |

"I was of high caste!" cried the Lady Rena of Lydius. |

"You, too," said I to the Lady Rena of Lydius. |

She had been even the Lady Rena of Lydius! Now they seemed to be naught but female slaves. |

Sometimes I would be a new girl, frightened, young, much fearing him, as Techne might have been; sometimes I would be as though of the scribes, much as Inge might have been, refined, dismayed at her fate; sometimes as a fine lady, of wealth and position, of high caste, as Rena had been, who now must... |

"Ah," said he, "greetings, my fine young lady of Kassau". |
10 |

"I belong to free men!" Then, with the brazenness of a bondmaid, she, Thyri, who had been the fine young lady of Kassau, threw her kirtle up over her hips and, leaning forward, spit furiously at the thrall. |
10 |
| 7 | 200 |
"I await your discipline, my Jarl," she cried, and then turned again, and fled, that fine young lady of Kassau, barefoot and collared, now only a bondmaid, to the hall, to the furs, to await her discipline. |

"Yes, Lady," I assured her, bowing before her, lisping in the accents of Ar. |

"I had not realized, Lady," said I, "that perception such as yours existed in the north". |

"I might have you fried in the grease of tarsk," she said, "boiled in the oil of tharlarion!" "Will you not take pity, great Lady," I whined, "on those who did not suspect the civilization, the refinements, of the north?" "Perhaps," said she. |

"It is nothing, lady," I whined, "though among the highest born and most beautiful of the women of the Physicians it is much favored". |

"Who," I asked myself, "is Hilda, the daughter of a barbarian, of a rude, uncouth northern pirate, living in a high wooden fortress, overlooking the sea, to so demean the perfumes of Ar?" One might have thought she was a great lady, and not the insolent, though curvaceous, brat of a boorish sea rove... |
10 |

"Oh, great lady," I whined, "the finest of Ar's, perfumes may be too thin, too frail, too gross, for one of your discernment and taste". |

I am now no longer patient!" "Have pity, great lady!" I wept. |
10 |

"Please, no, great lady!" I begged. |

"Oh, no, great lady," I wept. |

"Must I, lady?" asked I. |

With a laugh, she crying out with pleasure, I took again the young lady of Kassau, the bondmaid, Thyri, in my arms. |

Then she said, "You have won talmits, have you not, Thorgeir of Ax Glacier?" "Six," said he, "Lady". |
10 |

We had not been much pleased at the insolence of the bondmaid with respect to the young thrall; once, we recalled, her taunting of him had almost cost him his life; I had intervened, and he had only been whipped instead; I had little doubt that Wulfstan of Kassau, the thrall, Tarsk, had many scores ... |

The Lady Sabina, I learned from Eta, was pledged by her father, Kleomenes, a pretentious, but powerful, upstart merchant of Fortress of Saphronicus, to Thandar of Ti, of the Warriors, youngest of the five sons of Ebullius Gaius Cassius, of the Warriors, Administrator of Ti, this done in a Companion ... |

I was only a slave, but I did not think myself much less free than the Lady Sabina, whose beauty was being bartered for commercial and political power. |

Yet I did not wish the Lady Sabina unhappiness. |
10 |
| 5 | 208 |
It was my hope that the Lady Sabina would be happy. |
10 |
| 5 | 215 |
I did not think she saw that, behind her, from the pavilionlike tent, the veiled Lady Sabina had emerged and followed her, with two of the other slave maids behind her, one with a switch. |
10 |
| 5 | 228 |
"So, Shameless Slave!" cried the Lady Sabina, who had followed the girl, perhaps suspicious of her. |
10 |
| 5 | 230 |
"Shameless slave slut!" cried the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 5 | 235 |
"Behold," cried the Lady Sabina, indicating the kneeling girl, "a lascivious slave girl!" The soldier, the leader of the camp, I gathered, was not pleased at having his work or rest interrupted, but was concerned to be deferential. |
10 |
| 5 | 236 |
"I followed her," said the Lady Sabina, "and found her here, shameless in the arms of a soldier, touching, kissing!" "Pity, Mistress," wept the girl. |
10 |
| 5 | 237 |
"Have I not, Lehna," inquired the Lady Sabina, sternly, "taught you proper deportment? Have I not instructed you in dignity? Is this how you betray my trust?" "Forgive me, Mistress," wept the girl. |
10 |
| 5 | 238 |
"You are not a paga slut," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 5 | 241 |
"Have I not set you always a model of elegance, an example of nobility and self-respect?" asked the Lady Sabina. |
10 |

You were trained diligently as a lady's maid". |
10 |

"And yet," said the Lady Sabina, sadly, "how have I been repaid?" The girl dared not answer, but kept her head down, trembling. |
10 |
| 5 | 254 |
"I have been repaid with ingratitude," said the Lady Sabina. |

"Lehna is grateful! Lehna is grateful to Mistress!" "Have I not been kind to you?" demanded the Lady Sabina. |

"Have I often whipped you?" demanded the Lady Sabina. |

"No!" "Do you think me weak?" inquired the Lady Sabina. |

"Kind, but not weak!" "Beg," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 5 | 269 |
"You are worthless," said the Lady Sabina to the bound slave. |
10 |

The Lady Sabina extended her hand to one of the two slave girls who were with her. |
10 |

"Have I not always set you an example of nobility, dignity and self-respect?" asked the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 5 | 281 |
"Naughty, naughty, salacious slave!" cried the Lady Sabina, striking her. |
10 |
| 5 | 283 |
I was startled at the fury with which the Lady Sabina struck the bound, collared girl. |
10 |

Then, wearied, furious, the Lady Sabina cast aside the switch, turned, and went back to her tent. |
10 |
| 5 | 289 |
When the Lady Sabina had finished her work and returned to her tent, followed by the two gowned slave girls, the leader of the camp, or captain, angrily, returned, too, to his tent, and the men, who had gathered around, returned to their duties, their rest or recreations. |
10 |
| 5 | 312 |
"Is it the Lady Sabina?" I heard cry. |
10 |
| 5 | 324 |
"Lady Sabina!" I heard. |
10 |
| 5 | 325 |
"Stop! Stop!" As I ran I realized that the probabilities of there being a free woman, robed, in the vicinity of the camp, who was not the Lady Sabina, were extremely low. |
10 |
| 5 | 327 |
There must have been men in the camp who, almost immediately, would have verified that the Lady Sabina was still within the camp, but many, having only moments to act, would be unable to make that verification. |
10 |
| 5 | 328 |
If the running woman was the Lady Sabina she must be caught for her loss would mean the failure of the alliances pending between the Salerian Confederation and Fortress of Saphronicus. |
10 |

And, if the woman were not the Lady Sabina she should, anyway, be brought in. |

10 |

"You are not the Lady Sabina," he said. |
10 |
| 5 | 437 |
"Perhaps now, dear Lady," said the captain, "you will choose to speak, choose to reveal your name and city, and your business in this vicinity so late in the night?" I dared not speak. |
10 |
| 5 | 450 |
"Consider yourself my prisoner, Lady," said the man. |
10 |
| 5 | 465 |
"The Lady Sabina," he cried, "she is gone! She has been taken!" With a cry of rage the leader, or captain, ran toward the tents, his men racing behind him, I struggling and gasping, jerked and dragged by the thong which held me. |
10 |
| 5 | 466 |
Straight to the pavilion of the Lady Sabina sped the captain. |
10 |
| 5 | 472 |
The maids of the Lady Sabina, who had been with her in the tent, stood terrified to one side. |
10 |

He placed the girl who had been whipped by the Lady Sabina first in the coffle line. |
10 |

In it, I suspected, lay the dowry riches of the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus. |
10 |

The location of the lady herself I did not know, but I had little doubt she was in a safe place, probably blindfolded, gagged and chained to a tree somewhere. |

It had been five weeks since the strike on the camp of the Lady Sabina. |

My master, with his men, in a bold coup, had several weeks ago stolen the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus from among her retainers, on her journey to be joined in companionship to Thandar of Ti, of Ti, of the Four Cities of Saleria, those comprising the Salerian Confederation. |
10 |
| 7 | 61 |
It had been his charge, I supposed, doubtless placed upon him by Marlenus of Ar, Ubar of that city, to prevent or disrupt the imminent alliance forming between Fortress of Saphronicus and the Confederation of Saleria, an alliance to be confirmed and sealed in the companionship of Thandar of Ti, youn... |

They safely removed by their own action from the environs of their camp, my master had then returned to the camp, to seize as well the dowry and beauteous maids of the Lady Sabina, Lehna, Donna, Chanda and Marla. |
10 |

We had been coffled by the left wrist and hurried into the night, on the track of the two wagons in which the Lady Sabina's dowry, divided, had been placed. |
10 |
| 7 | 68 |
The Lady Sabina, in her robes of concealment, stood with her belly to this tree, her wrists fastened about it, locked in the steel of slave bracelets. |
10 |
| 7 | 77 |
A guard was with the Lady Sabina, to protect her in the event of the arrival of prowling sleen. |
10 |

Beneath it, of course, the Lady Sabina had been face-stripped. |

"I am the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus," she said. |
10 |

"I am the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus," she said. |

The Lady Sabina, I supposed, was more beautiful than I, but I did not think she was more beautiful than her maids. |

"The Lady Sabina is generous," said my master. |
10 |

"I ask only," said the Lady Sabina, "that you not let me fall into the hands of those of Ar". |
10 |

"Ah, Lady," said my master, "there, you see, lies your true value". |
10 |

The Lady Sabina, I noted, had lovely legs. |

Do you not agree, Lady Sabina?" "My clothing," she said, "return it to me". |

"May I introduce myself, Lady Sabina?" inquired my master. |
10 |
| 7 | 202 |
"There are many captains in Ar, Lady Sabina," smiled my master. |
10 |
| 7 | 206 |
How marvelous to be the girl of such a man! My master snapped shut the wrist ring about the left wrist of the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 217 |
I recalled that the Lady Sabina was valuable indeed. |
10 |
| 7 | 220 |
The Lady Sabina and Thandar of Ti, according to Eta, had never seen one another, the companionship being arranged by their parents and the councils of their respective cities. |
10 |
| 7 | 221 |
In such a companionship the Lady Sabina would have raised caste, and become one of the high ladies of Ti, and of the Confederation. |
10 |
| 7 | 224 |
The Lady Sabina, at the head of the coffle, moaned. |
10 |
| 7 | 231 |
You and your men, if you return me to the Confederation, will become rich beyond your wildest dreams!" "Do you ask me, Lady," inquired my master, "to betray Ar?" She suddenly sank to her knees in terror before him. |
10 |
| 7 | 236 |
"Behind you, Lady Sabina," said my master, "you will note a slave girl, Lehna". |
10 |
| 7 | 239 |
"Yes, Master," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 243 |
"Lehna," said my master, "should the Lady Sabina dally or in any way attempt to delay the coffle, it will be your charge to hasten her". |
10 |
| 7 | 245 |
I did not envy the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 246 |
"I am sorry I switched you, Lehna," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 247 |
Lehna struck her savagely across the back with the switch, and the Lady Sabina, whose thin undergarment shielded her from the blow scarcely at all, cried out with misery. |
10 |
| 7 | 254 |
"Please, do not strike me, Mistress!" wept the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 258 |
"On your feet, Lady Sabina!" cried Lehna. |
10 |
| 7 | 259 |
The Lady Sabina leapt to her feet, with a rustle of chain. |
10 |
| 7 | 263 |
"Yes, Mistress," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 264 |
"Are you ready, noble, lofty Lady Sabina?" inquired Lehna. |
10 |
| 7 | 265 |
"I am sorry I switched you, Mistress," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 268 |
"Please, Mistress!" cried the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 270 |
"No, Mistress," moaned the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 272 |
"Do you think me weak, Lady Sabina?" inquired Lehna. |
10 |
| 7 | 273 |
"No, no!" wept the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 277 |
The Lady Sabina wept. |
10 |
| 7 | 279 |
"Straighter!" She poked the Lady Sabina with the switch. |
10 |
| 7 | 280 |
The Lady Sabina then, choking back her tears, stood straight in the coffle, the posture accentuating the lovely lines of her chained beauty. |
10 |
| 7 | 284 |
"Yes, Mistress," said the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 286 |
With a cry of misery the Lady Sabina, moving first on her left foot, stumbled forward. |
10 |
| 7 | 288 |
"Yes, Mistress!" cried the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 7 | 470 |
After the capture of the Lady Sabina we had returned to the secret cache camp, to which my master had originally brought me, his barbarian girl. |
10 |
| 7 | 471 |
At the cache camp, the first night of our arrival, the Lady Sabina had been stripped and thrown on her back, head down, on the inclining, white-barked tree trunk, to which she had then been, as I had been before her, helplessly roped. |
10 |
| 7 | 552 |
"Let us hope that, in the future, your masters and mistresses will be kinder to you than was the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus to her slaves". |
10 |
| 7 | 635 |
But Donna, though she had been adjudged fit for men and branded, was sold from the block in Ko-ro-ba to a visiting merchant, Kleomenes of Fortress of Saphronicus, who took her with him and gave her to his spoiled daughter, the Lady Sabina, as a woman's slave. |
10 |
| 8 | 326 |
How pleased they would have been to have seen me—on Gor! In the vicinity of Thurnus's hut, at the side of one of the wagons taken in the raid on the camp of the Lady Sabina, being loaded with supplies and gear, was Clitus Vitellius. |
10 |
| 9 | 42 |
Slave Beads was no longer the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 9 | 73 |
Clitus Vitellius still had the wagons stolen from the camp of the Lady Sabina and so his girls did not have to carry the burdens of his camp. |
10 |
| 9 | 103 |
The men were now hitching the bosk to the wagons taken from the camp of the Lady Sabina. |
10 |
| 9 | 1880 |
"Greetings, Lady," said Tup Ladletender. |
10 |
| 13 | 131 |
"Are you comfortable now, dear lady?" he asked. |
10 |
| 14 | 216 |
At one time a girl, the Lady Sabina, the daughter of a merchant, Kleomenes of Fortress of Saphronicus, high merchant of that city, had been pledged in Companion Contract to this Thandar of Ti. |
10 |
| 14 | 217 |
Raiders had struck the companion caravan, acquiring its riches and carrying off the Lady Sabina, and others. |
10 |
| 14 | 218 |
To guarantee the frustration of the Companion Contract and to prevent the alliance of Fortress of Saphronicus with the Salerian Confederation, the Lady Sabina had been reduced to slavery. |
10 |
| 14 | 223 |
Never had Thandar of Ti and the Lady Sabina of Fortress of Saphronicus, as far as I knew, looked upon one another. |
10 |
| 14 | 239 |
In looking upon one of us, upon one of two lowly, exquisite slaves, he had been looking upon she who had once been the Lady Sabina, of Fortress of Saphronicus, once intended to sit regally at his side, gloriously robed, his free companion. |
10 |
| 15 | 114 |
"You will address me," she said, "as Lady Elicia, my mistress, or, as you have done, simply as Mistress, that sort of thing". |
10 |
| 15 | 115 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 15 | 120 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I whispered. |
10 |

Return me to the Lady Elicia of Six Towers. |
10 |
| 15 | 165 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I whispered. |
10 |
| 15 | 200 |
The Lady Elicia indicated me to them. |
10 |
| 15 | 205 |
"Can there be more?" asked the Lady Elicia, amazed. |
10 |
| 15 | 225 |
Gone now was the thought of the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 229 |
"Little whore!" sneered the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 234 |
"You are lower than a whore," said the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 237 |
"Finish with her," said the Lady Elicia, rising, angrily, from the curule chair. |
10 |
| 15 | 239 |
"Yes, Lady," said Tellius. |
10 |
| 15 | 240 |
The Lady Elicia left the room. |
10 |
| 15 | 246 |
* * * * "Kneel," said the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 250 |
"Do you have any doubt," asked the Lady Elicia, "that you are a slave?" "No, Mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 15 | 258 |
The Lady Elicia would tell me once, I knew. |
10 |
| 15 | 263 |
"Your bath is ready, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I said, kneeling before her. |
10 |
| 15 | 275 |
"You, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 15 | 277 |
"Yes," I said, head down, "Lady Elicia, my mistress". |
10 |
| 15 | 290 |
"Slave girl!" cried the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 292 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 15 | 300 |
"No," said the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 366 |
"Any piece of suitable slave flesh," said the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 15 | 395 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 16 | 168 |
I had been taken by Tellius, the henchman of the Lady Elicia of Ar, by tarn, to Schendi. |
10 |
| 17 | 79 |
I knew what the sentence said, for my mistress, the Lady Elicia of Ar, had told me. |
10 |
| 17 | 90 |
The chemical brand, marking me for the agents with whom the Lady Elicia, my mistress, was associated, was gone. |
10 |
| 19 | 28 |
I was very frightened, for I knew these must be the men associated with the Mistress, Lady Elicia of Ar. |
10 |
| 19 | 153 |
"Besides," said he, "the Lady Elicia wants the pretty little thing for a serving slave". |
10 |
| 19 | 154 |
"The Lady Elicia," said one of the men, "would, I wager, look well naked and in a collar". |
10 |
| 21 | 53 |
The tag, I had been told, read: "Send me to the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers". |
10 |
| 22 | 19 |
It read, "Send me to the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers". |
10 |
| 22 | 24 |
Further, I knew she would wish me to be a demure girl, a fitting serving slave for a lady of wealth and rank, one whose status and image requires that her girls be paragons of shy, perfect obedience, humility and modesty, that they reflect not the least dishonor upon her. |
10 |
| 22 | 270 |
"The ship is secure, Lady," had said the captain. |
10 |
| 22 | 278 |
"I will remain no longer in the hold," said the lady to the captain. |
10 |
| 22 | 679 |
He read it aloud, "Send me to the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers". |
10 |
| 22 | 681 |
"You, a lady's serving slave," he grinned. |
10 |
| 24 | 252 |
"I was being sent to the Lady Elicia of Ar," I said, "my mistress". |
10 |

I Return to Ar; What was Done to Elicia Nevins, My Mistress "Your bath is ready, Mistress," I said, kneeling, head down, in brief white slave tunic, before the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers. |
10 |
| 26 | 7 |
The Lady Elicia enjoyed having me so before her. |
10 |
| 26 | 10 |
The Lady Elicia had no intention of letting the former Judy Thornton, her formal rival at the college, lose sight of the fact that she was now a slave. |
10 |
| 26 | 27 |
"Thank you, Lady Elicia, my Mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 26 | 45 |
The Lady Elicia, as I soon discovered, and had earlier suspected, despised and hated men. |
10 |
| 26 | 70 |
"Yes, terrible!" said the Lady Elicia of Ar, my mistress, of Six Towers. |
10 |
| 26 | 105 |
"Are you the lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers?" he asked. |
10 |
| 26 | 120 |
"You are quite alone, Lady Elicia," he said. |
10 |
| 26 | 128 |
I looked at the Lady Elicia. |
10 |
| 26 | 133 |
"Yes, Lady Elicia, my Mistress," I said. |
10 |
| 26 | 136 |
"Leave me! You intrude in a lady's compartments!" "Emerge from your bath," said he, "to accept the bonds of a slave". |
10 |
| 26 | 204 |
Secondly, though you speak of yourself as the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers, you are, in actuality, Miss Elicia Nevins of the planet Earth. |
10 |

Return me to the Lady Elicia of Ar, of Six Towers". |

When Clitus Vitellius had come to the compartments of the former Lady Elicia of Six Towers to fetch a slave she, bound hand and foot, had been in white. |

"Yes," I said, "it is the collar for you, Lady Constance". |

Numbly the Lady Constance knelt. |

She glanced at the Lady Tina. |

"Do not look at me, Slave!" hissed the Lady Tina. |

I saw her make a tiny face at the Lady Tina. |

"Oh!" cried the Lady Tina, in fury, squirming in the leather. |
10 |

I, in the light of the subsiding fire, watched the Lady Tina fight weeping with her bonds. |
10 |

The free woman, the Lady Tina of Lydius, too, slept, lying on her side, exhausted from her struggles of the night. |

Suddenly Lady Tina went white. |

"Mistress," said she who had been the former Lady Tina of Lydius, frightened, to Constance. |

I saw that she, too, as had the Lady Tina of Lydius, knew too little of men to fear them. |

"I have come to fetch the Lady Rosa," he said. |
10 |

I saw that a branch of the recessed chain track, above, entered the apartment, doubtless so that the Lady Rosa could be served by appropriately secured female slaves. |

"You are the Lady Rosa?" I asked. |

"I lift my cup," said the Lady Florence, "to the beautiful Lady Melpomene of Vonda, who is beautiful enough, I am sure, even to wear the collar of a slave!" There was laughter at this bold toast, and the Lady Melpomene, reddening, smiling, put down her head. |

The Lady Florence; I Encounter a Slave Girl, Whom I Learn is Owned by Oneander of Ar "How pretty he is at your stirrup, Lady Florence," said the veiled woman, reclining in the palanquin, its draft slaves now halted. |

"A lengthening of his hair, a white ribbon binding it back, a silken tunic make quite a difference, Lady Melpomene," responded the Lady Florence. |
10 |

"We proceeded from my villa to my house in Venna," continued the Lady Florence, speaking lightly with the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |

The Lady Melpomene; The Vengeance of the Lady Melpomene "Ah, Jason," said the woman. |
10 |
| 17 | 203 |
"Thus," she laughed, "I, the Lady Melpomene of Vonda, take the silk slave of my enemy, the despicable Lady Florence of Vonda!" I looked up at her, shuddering. |
10 |
| 18 | 179 |
The Lady Florence, though she must have been aware of these things, never, it was said, at home or abroad, mentioned the name of the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 18 | 281 |
"And is he, upon occasion," asked the Lady Florence, "rewarded with things of another sort?" "Of course, Lady Florence," said Kenneth. |
10 |
| 20 | 138 |
"May I present, Kenneth," said the Lady Florence of Vonda, "my dear friend, the Lady Melpomene of Vonda". |
10 |
| 20 | 140 |
"Jason," said the Lady Florence, "perhaps you remember my good friend, the Lady Melpomene of Vonda, my city". |
10 |
| 20 | 144 |
"Lady Melpomene will be staying with us for two or three days," said the Lady Florence. |
10 |
| 20 | 153 |
"Oh, Kenneth," asked the Lady Florence, "is the new girl working out?" "Yes, Lady Florence," he said. |
10 |
| 20 | 237 |
Then he turned about, to thrust me ahead of him down the corridor, I looked back, seeing again, at the gate, the Lady Florence and, beside her, the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 3 |
"How I regret our former differences," said the Lady Melpomene, clasping in her two hands those of the Lady Florence. |
10 |
| 22 | 11 |
There were four men and two women at these tables, other than the Lady Florence, the hostess, and her guest of the past several days, the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 22 |
"I lift my wine to the Lady Florence of Vonda!" said the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 45 |
I looked about, through the curtain, at the guests of the Lady Florence, other than the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 66 |
"What is the entertainment you have planned for us, Lady Florence?" inquired the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 69 |
"You are so secretive, Florence," laughed the Lady Leta, as though chiding the Lady Florence. |
10 |
| 22 | 80 |
"And, thanks to my friend, the Lady Florence, she of Vonda," said the Lady Melpomene, "you shall have your payments, and now. |
10 |
| 22 | 84 |
"I herewith publicly sign," said the Lady Melpomene, "this loan note, made out to the Lady Florence of Vonda, for the full sum of one thousand, four hundred and twenty tarns of gold". |
10 |
| 22 | 96 |
"You are now my full and only creditor, Lady Florence," said the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 104 |
The Lady Florence reached to the tiny cup of wine, and seized it up, and hurled its contents against the Lady Melpomene. |
10 |
| 22 | 134 |
The two men, each one holding an arm, held the Lady Melpomene so that she must face the Lady Florence. |
10 |
| 22 | 145 |
The Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene laughed. |
10 |
| 22 | 156 |
There was again laughter from the Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene. |
10 |
| 22 | 163 |
"Come back, Lady Melpomene," called the Lady Florence, "and hurry, lest we become displeased". |
10 |
| 22 | 164 |
The Lady Melpomene hurried back to the tables, sobbing, and fell on her knees at the low table of the Lady Florence. |
10 |
| 22 | 166 |
She tried to touch the Lady Florence but the Lady Florence drew back. |
10 |

"Can you pay?" "You have lured me here," cried out the Lady Melpomene to the Lady Florence, "away from Vonda, beyond the shelter of her walls!" "The walls of Vonda," said the prefect sternly, "would no longer afford you protection, for your debt, in its plenitude, is now owed to one who is a citizen... |
10 |
| 22 | 213 |
The Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene, too, clapped their hands and laughed with pleasure. |

Brandon, though a prefect in Vonda, rose to his feet and carried papers to the Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene. |

"Tenalion, my dear," said the Lady Florence, "would you please relieve our lovely Melpomene of the impediment of her chain?" "Certainly, Lady Florence," said Tenalion. |
10 |

"Now you shall dance," she said, "before a male slave!" "Oh, no, Mistress," begged Melpomene, "please, please do not so shame me!" The two women, the Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene, clapped their hands with pleasure. |
10 |
| 22 | 465 |
I heard the women, the Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene, draw in their breath. |

The Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene laughed. |

The Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene drew in their breath with pleasure. |
10 |

The Lady Leta and the Lady Perimene cried out with pleasure. |
10 |

But sometimes the Lady Leta or the Lady Perimene would pause to observe the helpless passion of the slave girl and laugh at her, or insult her, for her weakness. |
10 |
| 22 | 768 |
The eyes of the Lady Leta and of the Lady Perimene shone above their veils. |
10 |
| 22 | 782 |
"Your vengeance on your enemy, Lady Florence," said the Lady Leta, looking down at Melpomene, "is surely now complete and perfect". |
10 |
| 22 | 784 |
"Yes," said the Lady Florence, "surely now my vengeance is complete and perfect, but if this is so, then why do I feel somehow dissatisfied?" "I can explain that to you, Lady Florence," said Tenalion, "if you wish to listen". |

The Lady Gina turned her right hand, back down, to the floor, and lifted it slightly. |

If Lady Publia heard these tiny noises, and associated them with Lady Claudia, presumably she thought that Lady Claudia was accompanying the executioner to the wall, doubtless as she herself would have. |

I supposed it would not do to tell Lady Claudia, as she was still a free woman, but she was actually, at this time, at any rate, far more beautiful than Lady Publia. |

Lady Publia regarded Lady Claudia scornfully. |
10 |
