10 |
| 11 | 212 |

10 |
| 11 | 221 |
"Do not move," commanded the leather worker. |
10 |
| 11 | 227 |

10 |
| 11 | 244 |

10 |
| 11 | 1159 |
He had, over his left eye, a strip of leather, which was wound about his head. |
10 |
| 11 | 1292 |
I put my head back and the leather worker again reached toward my face. |
10 |
| 11 | 1435 |
How pleased I was to be free! And then suddenly I turned and, behind me, some eight or ten feet away, standing, not speaking, tall in the blue and yellow robes of the slaver, still partially hooded, the band of leather across his left eye, was Soron of Ar. |
10 |
| 11 | 1449 |
I now saw, in his hand, coiled, several slender loops of braided leather. |
10 |
| 11 | 1451 |
The leather loop suddenly dropped about me and jerked tight, pinning my arms to my sides. |
10 |
| 12 | 22 |
By a long, leather strap, some ten feet in length, I was fastened by the neck to Ute. |
10 |

10 |
| 12 | 279 |
We now heard the snap of whips again, but this time the leather blades fell upon the naked backs of girls. |
10 |
| 12 | 281 |
A huntsman came now, holding in his hand five long leather straps, dragging behind him five panther girls. |
10 |
| 12 | 669 |
"I can't!" Ute pushed me away and began to chew at the leather strap, desperately, holding it with her hands. |
10 |
| 12 | 718 |
Others, flying low and to the side, roped the girls as they ran, using their slender ropes of braided leather, familiar to all tarnsmen. |
10 |
| 12 | 731 |
The wide, swiftly closing loop of braided leather fell about her running body. |
10 |
| 13 | 80 |
Ute was of the leather workers. |
10 |
| 13 | 86 |
At the age of twelve, Ute had been purchased by a leather worker, who dwelt on the exchange island, administered by the Merchants, of Teletus. |
10 |
| 13 | 88 |
They had adopted her as their daughter, and had seen that she was trained well in the work of the leather workers, that caste which, under any circumstances, had been hers by right of birth. |
10 |
| 13 | 89 |
On her nineteenth birthday, members of the Caste of Initiates had appeared at the door of the leather-worker's hut. |
10 |
| 13 | 94 |
"Do you wish the piece of gold?" asked the chief of the delegation of Initiates, of the leather worker and his companion. |
10 |
| 13 | 99 |
Ute knew that the leather worker, and his companion, could well use this piece of gold. |
10 |
| 13 | 108 |
The leather worker and his companion, reluctantly, yielding to her entreaties, accepted the piece of gold. |
10 |
| 13 | 117 |
It was there that she had been purchased by Barus, who, as she had once been, was of the leather workers. |
10 |
| 13 | 329 |
They were clad in leather, and armed. |
10 |
| 13 | 586 |
The leather loop dropped about my body. |
10 |
| 13 | 601 |
I felt my body dragged against the side of the bird, and then I felt my shoulder rub against the metal and leather of the saddle, and a man's leg. |
10 |
| 13 | 617 |
I felt against my body his leather, the buckle of his tarn belt. |
10 |
| 13 | 683 |
She was different, higher, better, a woman of Earth! She was refined, educated, sensitive! She was too special, too delicate, to be beaten! Could he not see that? She was not a common slave! She should not be beaten! Could he not see that? But I felt the leather of the saddle beneath my arched back,... |
10 |
| 13 | 761 |
He thrust the horn nozzle of a leather bota of water between my teeth. |
10 |
| 13 | 773 |
He wore scarlet leather. |
10 |
| 13 | 775 |
Neither his leather nor his helmet were distinguished by insignia. |
10 |
| 13 | 1031 |
Even when I had thought myself most free, after the escape from Targo, after betraying Ute, and escaping in the Ka-la-na thicket, this beast, with his laugh, his leather rope, and his slave collar, had been upon my trail. |
10 |
| 13 | 1065 |
He fastened his helmet to the side of the saddle and, from his saddle pack, withdrew a roll of leather. |
10 |
| 13 | 1067 |
I remembered then, the tall figure in the blue and yellow silk, with the leather covering one eye. |
10 |
| 13 | 1069 |
He smiled, removing the leather, replacing it in the saddle pack. |
10 |
| 14 | 123 |
There were many warriors about, perhaps a hundred or more, the men of Rask of Treve, and perhaps some twenty girls, lovely ones, in brief work tunics, busying themselves with their tasks, cooking, cleaning leather, polishing shields. |
10 |
| 14 | 182 |
They made us work! Why did they not do their own cooking, and polish their own leather, and go to the stream or the washing shed and wash their own clothes? They did not do so because they did not wish to do so. |
10 |
| 14 | 368 |
How beautiful I thought would have been Ena, in the straps, arched, supine, bound over the dark, oiled leather of a saddle, a tarnsman's prize, so tethered, so bared, so constrained, so helpless, so subdued. |
10 |
| 14 | 425 |
The roving tarnsman, with his leather loops at the side of his saddle, thinking of trying "chain luck," the scrutinizing slaver, with his capture loops and notebooks, engaged in the commerce of women, may surely better assess a half-naked quarry. |
10 |
| 14 | 508 |
In the alcove, he draws shut and ties the leather curtains. |
10 |
| 14 | 683 |
We faced one another, not speaking, he with his blade, and in his leather, I with nothing, stripped at his command. |
10 |
| 15 | 24 |
My wrists were still bound, fastened by the leather knots of the tarnsman, Rask of Treve. |
10 |
| 15 | 194 |
Many of the girls ran to individual warriors, their eyes shining, leaping up and seizing the stirrups, pulling themselves up and putting their cheeks against their soft leather boots. |
10 |
| 15 | 479 |
The musician fastened leather cuffs, mounted each with three rows of bells, on her wrists and ankles. |
10 |
| 15 | 551 |
A guard was with us, and we were charged with filling our leather buckets with ram-berries, a small, reddish fruit with edible seeds, not unlike tiny plums, save for the many small seeds. |
10 |
| 15 | 561 |
It was glorious to be outside the stockade, even though fastened by a leather neck strap to another girl. |
10 |
| 15 | 784 |
There had been the terrible sound of the leather, and then the pain. |
10 |
| 15 | 794 |
Again the leather fell and I gasped and twisted, hanging burning from the pole. |
10 |
| 15 | 819 |
