5	12	The other two oarsmen, oars outboard, and the helmsman, his hand on the tiller, nursed the boat, keeping it, as it was turned, muchly parallel to the shore.	10
5	313	Sullius Maximus then turned about, and hurried toward the shore.	10
5	348	She would not be sure, too, of what consequences might accrue to her, from her employers, should they learn of her disclosures at the shore.	10
5	407	She had swung parallel to the shore, her bow south.	10
5	409	Some boxes, too, perhaps supplies, of one sort or another, were cast overboard, and these were being guided by wading men to the shore, where they were drawn up on the beach.	10
5	411	These items then, some immersed, now and again, others trying desperately to hold their heads above the water, were dragged through the surf to the shore, and then, barefoot, stumbling, shuddering, were knelt on the wave-washed pebbled sand, water, coming and going, swirling about their knees and th...	10
5	444	After a time, a hundred yards or so from shore, she dropped her sail.	10
24	202	"I would be curious to see a far shore," I said.	10
25	193	Yet I was curious to see a far shore, if it might be reached.	10
25	196	Another theory held that the world did, indeed, end at some horizon, for in a finite world there could be no infinite number of horizons, but maintained that at the final horizon, or final shore, as in a lake, Thassa would find her final limit.	10
25	213	Is a far shore not always tempting? Who does not wish to cross a new river, to venture upon untrodden grass, to see a new sky, to glimpse a hitherto undetected horizon? And are there not an infinite number of horizons, after all.	10
28	132	Then fit and rig your vessels; then roll your dragons to the shore.	10
29	83	Some from the shore, and the structures there, were climbing to meet them.	10
29	93	"Quarters have been prepared for you, near the shore, near the cots," said Tajima.	10
29	96	"What is that large building, that structure near the shore?" I asked.	10
30	1	I Speak with Aëtius I felt small, standing on the shore, beside that towering, mighty body, that massive structure, held in its building frame, sloping down to the water.	10
30	140	I supposed the galleys had come from the south, and had been brought upstream, under oars, or towed, perhaps by tharlarion on shore, where the current might be difficult.	10
33	22	"It has to do with a far shore?" I said.	10
33	42	We were pushed to the shore.	10
33	45	"A straight-eyed, raving man, a barbarian, such as yourself, was washed upon our shore, while we awaited our doom.	10
33	52	How, I wondered, might the mad, half-blind shipwright, Tersites, have found himself on a remote shore.	10
35	155	"You are going back, to the 'far shore'?" I asked.	10
37	12	Ice had crusted about the cold shore.	10
37	60	In the vicinity of the camp, as she was under construction, the river had been deepened, to accommodate her keel near shore.	10
37	74	The helm, too, will be tied, to lead her back to shore, should she be tempted to stray".	10
38	357	We could see a longboat putting away from the shore, on the opposite bank.	10
38	361	"The boat departs from the southern shore".	10
38	532	"You are curious, you wish to accompany the cavalry, you find it difficult to resist the unknown, you are unwilling to step aside from the path to adventure, a trait with which we of the Pani are not unfamiliar, and you are interested in a far shore".	10
38	576	At various points along the wharf there were steps leading to its surface from the shore.	10
39	16	Some may have been in the forest, along the shore, but, on foot, in our passage downriver, in its steadiness, we would have been likely to have outdistanced them.	10
39	37	"They are like the sands of the shore," said Tajima.	10
39	42	"Are there galleys off shore?" I inquired.	10
40	11	There would be no boarding, no escaping of hundreds of men from a grounded, caught, foundering, sinking, burning ship, men to be cut down as they tried to elude the small boats and clamber to shore.	10
40	22	The attentions of our tarnsmen had been divided between the artillery, the ballistae, the mangonels, the catapults, the springals, on the shore, armed with their missiles and fire, and several galleys offshore.	10
40	30	There was shouting from the shore, as we passed, of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of men, and a drumming, rhythmic, that carried over the cold, green waters of gleaming Thassa.	10
40	43	Might not any captain discern such signs, and be wary? We looked back, at the shore, some two hundred yards astern.	10
40	136	We were now some four hundred yards from shore.	10
41	34	But we were now far from shore.	10

Would it not have been...	10
3	12	For example, in this fashion, the great ship could use them as concealed, surprise weapons, releasing them on a side not visible to an enemy, or, say, applying them at night; similarly, such ships might facilitate reconnoitering, facilitate communication with the shore, provide vessels for obtaining...	10

9	460	Then, by the will of whatever gods there be, by whatever names be theirs, we found ourselves, and gold, on a far shore.	10
13	35	So there was no reason to believe that we were near shore.	10
21	24	"It may not be safe to seek the shore.	10
21	133	"Have Aëtius instruct the helmsman to bring the ship closer to shore, a half pasang".	10
21	163	That we were closer to shore, whatever might be its advantages or disadvantages, did increase the tension on board, and various crew members, acting as spokesmen for one group or another, from one deck or another, urged minor officers to petition for a landing.	10
21	228	"Lord Temmu holds the shore," said Lord Okimoto, his glass of the Builders trained on the streaming smoke.	10
21	251	It signifies that we hold the shore, that Lord Temmu has retaken ground.	10
21	257	If we hold the shore, it is safe, and the green column is unnecessary".	10
21	265	"If we hold the shore," said Lord Nishida, thoughtfully, "it would seem quite likely that the castle of Lord Temmu would still stand".	10
21	414	When Tyrtaios glanced at him, for Tyrtaios often apprised himself of his surroundings, Seremides looked away, as though concerned to watch the small boats, now about the galley, approach the shore.	10
22	11	There seemed madness on the beach, men crowded together toward the shore, trying to board small boats.	10
22	19	I saw Tyrtaios, with others, on the ratlines, peering toward the shore.	10
22	52	In a quarter of an Ahn three galleys had been lowered and, half manned, were about the ship, and moving amongst small boats, toward the shore.	10
22	80	Several yards from the torchlit, screaming, raucous shore, the clash of metal, the cries of enraged men, of frightened men, of dying men, Cabot turned the galley.	10
22	81	"Back oars!" he commanded, and the stern of the galley, backing, pushed its way through small boats and wading men, and, a moment later, he cried "Hold!" and we lifted the oars, and we felt the keel of the galley grate on sloping, submerged sand, at the foot of the shore.	10
22	84	Shortly thereafter the galleys of Pertinax and Turgus, turned as well, lay to, at the shore, and were similarly subjected to clambering men.	10
22	85	I saw several of the small boats returning to the shore from the ship.	10
22	106	Then Cabot, I following him, leaped into the water amongst men trying to board the galley, and, water to our waist, we waded to shore.	10
22	110	"Oars," called Pertinax, taken aback, his voice cracking with misery, "Stroke!" The galley now captained by Philoctetes had already moved from shore, outside the light of the torches.	10
22	156	The great ship lay some half pasang from shore, in the darkness.	10
22	273	Boats were at the shore.	10
23	50	Some of our casualties, of course, had not taken place in the defile, or on the beach, but in the water, presumably at the side of the boats, or in an attempt to swim to the ship from shore.	10
23	54	Obviously he could not have so swum from shore, and would not have been transported in such a condition.	10
24	23	Treasure in hand, from the Vine Sea, what more was to be gained on a dangerous shore, at the World's End? The orientation of the great ship, bow to sea, would allow it, should the fleet of Lord Yamada be sighted, to slip its moorings and escape the cove, to the security of the open sea.	10
24	108	Thus they were reassured, at least to some extent, that the girls had been brought to shore.	10
26	103	To reach them from the sea, from the north or west, one would have to put into shore, on the other side of the island, negotiate a difficult terrain, and thread one's way through guarded, easily defended passes.	10

39	42	He then gestured toward the shore, as he had before, and this time she, head down, frightened, obedient, waded to the shore.	10
50	354	Some small boats were tied up on the shore, rather as they had been on the opposite shore.	10
9	51	We were brought to the deck, and then, when the ship had the beach abeam, and was a few yards from shore, we were plunged over the rail, and found ourselves awash in the surf.	10
9	57	We were waded to the shore and knelt there, in the surf, it washing up about our knees and calves.	10
9	66	"Position," called a fellow, himself descending from the ship, splashing, and wading to shore.	10
9	70	Much of the material cargo was being put to shore.	10
9	72	Some of the larger boxes were cast overboard, and, thrust, were floated to shore.	10
9	76	He had come up behind me, from having brought a small barrel to shore.	10
9	91	The newcomer seemed particularly interested in the two large boxes which had been lowered carefully on ropes over the ship's side, and then carried to shore.	10
9	152	It was now more than a hundred yards from shore.	10
9	184	There must have been a signal from the forest, a particular signal, I thought, to bring us to shore here.	10
9	185	It then occurred to me that there might have been another signal, a different signal, possibly, to bring the second ship to the shore, or would be such a signal.	10
10	2	Indeed, our vessel did not even beach at this point, but turned about, and rocked in place, parallel to the shore, some yards from the beach.	10
10	127	Men poured over the rail after him, and about him, making their way to the shore.	10
11	55	Doubtless some of those with us, who had been at the shore, were guides, and familiar with such things.	10

33	38	We were each given a pitcher, and we then went down to the shore, on our rope, filled our vessels, and returned to the camp.	10
33	47	The best wood would be gathered on the shore of the Alexandra, which was quite close, where debris was exposed to the sun.	10
33	48	Mila and I, bending over, roped together by the neck, filled our arms at the shore.	10
39	20	Emerald was now in the river, in the water to her waist, facing back toward the shore, facing her pursuer, so close to her.	10
39	31	He then released her, and indicated that she should precede him to the shore.	10
41	14	Several of the men had come down to the shore, to watch.	10
41	66	How I hated him! I wondered if he were watching, from the shore, if he saw me, as I was now.	10
41	71	Was he watching? Let him suffer! Now I would follow Tula and Mila to the shore, and don my freshened, still-damp tunic.	10
41	75	I wished that he whom I hated might be on shore, watching me, not that it made any difference to me.	10
41	508	I then accompanied Tula to the shore of the Alexandra, where Mila was waiting for us.	10
42	130	Afterwards I stood for a little time on the shore, thinking of running.	10
42	137	I knew little of the south shore of the Alexandra.	10
43	1115	"Take what you want of their weapons and goods, and cast the rest at the river's shore".	10
43	1119	A few javelins, and blades, harnessing, goods, and such, apparently of little interest, were removed from the camp, and, following Axel's instructions, left by the shore of the river, in the mud, some one hundred paces away.	10
43	1149	Some weapons, and goods, are at the river shore.	10
43	1186	"You may free your men," said Axel, "but keep them from the shore until we are clear of the camp".	10
43	1190	He sprang up, and glanced to the shore.	10
43	1215	Rorton had run no more than five steps before the weight of Tiomines struck against him and sent him rolling down the slope toward the shore.	10
43	1220	In its eagerness, by the shore, its fur was covered by mud.	10
43	1242	The sounds of the sleen's growling, and feeding, though at the shore, carried to the camp.	10
43	1251	I could see Tiomines, by the shore, lift his head, and look about.	10
43	1288	"Tiomines," he called, slapping his thigh, and the brute shook its fur, still wet and muddy from the shore, and padded softly to his side.	10
47	14	I had even traversed the shore of the Alexandra, for a pasang or more, both east and west, given the possibility that she might have waded, before returning to the land.	10
48	7	There were no signs of patrols from Shipcamp along the shore nor of the small sounding boats which might be testing the river or preceding the slow, stately journey of the great ship to the sea.	10
50	269	At the shore I looked across the broad Alexandra.	10
50	275	Standing at the edge of the shore, I could see, across the river, some of the buildings, and the mysterious stockade, which had excited my curiosity in the past.	10
50	285	At the edge of the shore, there were several small boats tied in place, to stakes anchored in the beach, some, long boats, propelled by several oars, and others, smaller boats, propelled by a pair of oars.	10
50	313	As he was rowing he was facing me, naturally, and the closer shore.	10
50	315	I, on the other hand, as I was situated, might I struggle to a sitting position, could see around him to the opposite shore.	10
50	345	In a few more Ehn, I felt the bottom of the boat grate against the shore.	10
50	348	I did realize we were now on the southern shore of the river.	10
50	353	This was the first time I had been in a position to see the southern shore this closely.	10
50	418	But what then could be the real reason for the isolation of these slaves? The two guards who had been stationed at the head of the stairway, leading upward from the shore, withdrew, presumably returning to their post.	10
52	12	I had been punished, lashed, near the shore of the Alexandra by my captor.	10
52	248	"My accouterments," said my captor, "are in the far boat, there, along the shore".	10

1	30	There had been three signals, trails of ascending smoke, red, yellow, and green, red betokening that the shore was held, land having been retaken, yellow that the holding of Lord Temmu still stood, and green that all was safe, and, accordingly, a landing might be effected.	10
6	14	Eventually the primary remnants of the land forces of Lord Temmu, those separated from the holding, to which portions had retreated, cut off and undersupplied, had been driven to the very shore of Thassa.	10
6	17	But when the soldiers of Lord Yamada, with the first light, with fixed banners and brandished glaives, crying out, swarmed to the shore, they found the beach empty.	10
20	369	Too, consider the gifts of the sea and shore, from four of my fishing villages, clams, oysters, grunt, bag fish, song fish, shark, eels, octopus, wing fish, parsit, squid".	10
21	74	These Pani, as I had determined, were as unclear as to the nature of their arrival on a foreign shore, as were those amongst whom they had found themselves.	10
25	221	I could almost sense Sumomo trembling, and trying to breathe, teetering on the narrow, unstable support which held her from the pool far below, that bending, narrow, unsteady bridge lacking a farther shore.	10

61	962	Unknown to herself, aside from her brief role in meeting a tarnsman on the shore of Thassa, at the edge of the forest, and seeing that he was brought to Tarncamp, she had been preselected, in virtue of a standing order, for a Gorean collar, and would be delivering herself, as well, to Tarncamp.	10

8	15	I could see the shore to our right.	10
8	65	Not in the vicinity of a free person I rose to my feet, and went to the rail, to look out, and saw the shore in the distance.	10
8	94	I supposed she hoped to swim to the shore, perhaps a pasang or so off to the right.	10
8	105	Were they not going to lower the longboat, and pursue the fugitive? The swiftly rowed longboat could overtake her in a short time, long before she could reach the shore.	10
8	106	And should she manage to reach the shore, I had little doubt but what her pursuers, young, long-striding men, would easily outrun her and bring her back to the beach on a rope.	10
8	108	This beast, of which I had heard, given the scent of her blanket, might then lead her pursuers to her, or, depending on the command, herd her back to the shore, where her pursuers, perhaps encamped, would be waiting.	10
8	162	I recalled something I had heard, from long ago, that sharks, even far from shore, may follow a ship for days, to feed on garbage thrown overboard.	10

8	683	"Surely you note that the corsair has positioned itself between us and the shore," said the keeper.	10
8	684	"And, even if we were willing to risk villages of rapacious peasants, armed with the great bow, we could not reach the shore".	10
8	701	"Note," said the keeper, "the helmsmen have turned us toward the shore, but briefly.	10
8	703	We have realized we could not beat the corsair to the shore, so we have no choice but to risk all on flight".	10
8	709	"And he, too, then, is farther from the shore".	10
8	847	"We have drawn them far from shore," he said.	10
8	875	The corsair began to turn toward the shore.	10
8	959	Within an Ahn or two I supposed we should have the shore again in sight, a situation wont to be favored by Gorean mariners, and then we would return to our original course.	10
8	981	"That is when I leapt from the ship, in a desperate and forlorn hope of attaining the shore".	10

16	31	Interestingly, when the Tesephone had touched the shore, one sensed, that the shore had drawn back a little, almost imperceptibly, as though reacting to the pressure of the Tesephone's hull.	10

16	42	I noted some of the men in pairs, carrying heavy, drilled stones to the shore.	10
16	45	Others from the shore, fastened to the stones, were cast over the rail of the Tesephone, which were then secured on board.	10
16	47	But I had already vaulted over the rail and, catching my balance, unsteady for a moment, stood upright on the shore.	10

37	25	Their mooring ropes, fastened to shore cleats at stem and stern, with their conical or disklike urt guards, would, as they lifted and tightened, shed water in a rain of sunlit droplets, and then, again, relaxing, would loop downward, settling again into the water.	10
