15 107 And now, in this very afternoon, my glories had been climaxed in the chamber of the Council of Captains, in which had taken place the formal presentations and accountings of the victory and its plunder, in which had taken place the commendation of the Council for my deeds and the awarding of its mos...

17 197 And then I had seen fleet ships, in their fifties, come about to move against what they had taken to be a new wave of round ships, only to be taken off-guard by the rams and shearing blades of ships as swift and terrible as their own.

1 102 The rence growers, in spite of the value of their product, and the value of articles taken in exchange for it, and the protection of the marshes, and the rence and fish which give them ample sustenance, do not have an easy life.

10
4 24 At noon, in the marshes, with the sun burning at meridian, she had taken another handful of rence paste from a wallet worn at her waist and thrust it in my mouth, again not permitting me the dignity of feeding myself.
Details
10
4 43 Then she had taken a length of marsh vine from a packet on her rence craft.
Details
10
6 142 I ran in the direction that Telima had taken.
Details
10
7 11 I gathered that much rence paper had been taken from the four islands, before they had been set afire.
Details
10
7 18 I supposed that had Telima been taken, that place might have been hers.
Details
10
7 36 One by one they were being taken from the net, the net being tightened again by slaves, and stripped and bound, hand and foot.
Details
10
7 75 I had taken some of the reeds which had been heaped on the raft and, bundling them, had used them, paddling, to move the raft back to the island.
Details
10
7 191 I looked westward, the direction that had been taken by the heavily laden barges of the slavers of Port Kar.
Details
10
8 6 I had even, folded and stained from the salt of the marsh, the warrior's tunic, which had been taken from me even in the marsh, before I had been brought bound before Ho-Hak on the island.
Details
10
8 246 And so I, with my shield and sword, helmeted, followed by Telima, a rence girl, carrying the great bow, with its arrows, many of them now bloodied, taken from the bodies of those of Port Kar, moved from barge to barge.
Details
10
8 422 It was she who had done this to me, who had cost me myself, teaching me my ignobility and my cowardice, who had broken the image, casting it into the mud of the marsh, that I had for so many years, so foolishly, taken as the substance and truth of my own person.

10
8 529 I would have exchanged it all for Tarl Cabot, the myth, and the dream, that had been taken from me.

9 280 I had given her a brief tunic of silk, briefer even than had been the rence tunic she had worn when she had taunted me at the pole, and when she had danced before me, which had been taken from her by the slaver after she had been netted on the island.
Details
10
9 363 I had taken much pleasure from Midice, and put her, as well, for she was slave, at the disposal of the others.
Details
10
9 365 Shortly after we had taken our quarters, Midice had knelt before me, of her own accord, and put her hands upon my thighs, and looked up at me, and whispered, "Please let me pleasure you," and then she had added, "and in a thousand ways a thousand times—Master".
Details
10
9 486 But, with the ankle rings, taken from her following the dance, I secured her.

10
11 419 I had taken the note which I had received the preceding afternoon from my wallet, that which had purported to be from Samos, which he had denied sending.
Details
10
11 471 "And," I asked, "do we abide by their acceptance? Would there then be truly peace between Port Kar, and Cos and Tyros?" "That," smiled Samos, "may always be taken under consideration at a future meeting of the council".
Details
10
11 509 I myself was taken aback.
Details
10
11 595 There were risks, of course, but I had taken them into account.
Details
10
12 102 And I added, "And since you are a slave, you will be marked and collared, and taken to my holding".
Details
10
13 218 When, early the next morning, chained and under guard, I was taken from the palace of Lurius of Jad, Ubar of Cos, the streets were mostly deserted.
Details
10
13 515 Even so I found myself pressed and, to ease the difficulties of wharfage and mooring rights, I sold many a round ship taken, and some of the inferior long ships.
Details
10
14 76 The slaves, eager for the capture of the vessel by one of my ships, could scarcely be expected to row with their full strength, and the masters, knowing full well the ship might be taken, feared, under the conditions obtaining, to seriously abuse or slay the chained oarsmen.
Details
10
14 90 Although I had had the masts, with their yards, taken down and lashed to the decks, and the sails stored below, I had the flutists and drummers, not uncommon on the ram-ships of Thassa, strike up a martial air.
Details
10
14 248 Since the principal weapons of the ram-ship are the ram and shearing blades, she is most dangerous taken head on.
Details
10
14 294 Five of these search ships I sent in a net formation toward Cos, supposing this the most likely, if not the most wise, course that would soon be taken by the majority of the escaping round ships.
Details
10
14 360 I had, by agreement with the council, reserved to myself twelve shares of thirty divisions, as well as all slaves taken.
Details
10
14 448 The other two girls were taken from my presence.
Details
10
14 456 The treasure from the ship, of course, will be placed aboard other ships, taken to Port Kar as prizes.
Details
10
15 50 In the five days it had taken to reach Port Kar from the scene of the engagement with the treasure fleet, due to the slowness of the round ships, I had not kept Vivina, and her maidens, of course, at the prows of the ships.
Details
10
15 102 In this very afternoon the formal presentations and accountings of the victory and its plunder had taken place in the chamber of the Council of Captains.
Details
10
15 106 The treasures taken were rich beyond our wildest expectations, beyond the most remote calculations of our most avaricious scribes.
Details
10
15 122 A similar consolidation and unification had taken place, of course, in the realm of inspections and taxations, penalties and enforcements, codes and courts.

10
15 125 This fortress, it seems, might be taken by storm, but the effort would be costly.

15 199 I knew that Thurnock and Clitus, and others, had taken a liking to the boy.
Details
10
15 257 I recalled how they had taken a fancy to the boy, Fish, and had helped him with his work in weapons.
Details
10
15 716 I saw that, about her left arm, she wore again the armlet of gold, which I remembered from so long ago, that which I had taken from her to give to Midice.
Details
10
16 50 "Yes," she taunted, "Slave!" I cast about for the slave collar I had taken from her throat.

16 200 We had been taken totally unprepared.

16 340 And I heard men behind him cry, "There is a Home Stone in Port Kar! There is a Home Stone in Port Kar!" This cry was taken up by thousands, and everywhere I saw men pause in their flight, and boats put about, and men pour from the entryways of their buildings onto the walks lining the canals.
Details
10
17 61 Only slaves whose origin was of Cos or Tyros, or their allies, had been taken from the ships and left behind, chained in the warehouses of Port Kar.
Details
10
17 77 Coming on the heels of the round ships, with their masts high, these, I assumed, might well be taken for more round ships, for the mast of a tarn ship is always lowered before battle.
Details
10
17 86 Hopefully, the terror of being taken in the flank might cause many captains, or even Chenbar himself, to have the fleet put about, and, if so, this would make their ships the most vulnerable to our own.
Details
10
17 176 In the turmoil of the battle I had little doubt that they would be taken, at first, and perhaps until it was too late, as a second wave of round ships.
