Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
6	127	"There is a carnivorous tharlarion, a wild tharlarion, in the vicinity," he said.	10
9	94	He rode the species of tharlarion called the high tharlarion, which ran on its two back feet in great bounding strides.	10
10	112	In those days I learned to master the high tharlarion, one of which had been assigned to me by the caravan's tharlarion master.	10
3	269	The tarn is one of the two most common mounts of a Gorean warrior; the other is the high tharlarion, a species of saddle-lizard, used mostly by clans who have never mastered tarns.	10
6	130	About two or three minutes later I heard the hunger grunt of a wild tharlarion and a moment afterward the piercing scream of a terrified girl.	10
6	134	Scarcely had she broken into the clearing, splashing through the shallow greenish waters near us, than the fearsome head of a wild tharlarion poked through the reeds, its round, shining eyes gleaming with excitement, its vast arc of a mouth swung open.	10
6	139	In an instant I had splashed into the marsh at the foot of the tree and raced toward the tharlarion, my sword raised.	10
6	141	A shattering squeal of pain rent the heavy air of the swamp forest, and the tharlarion actually reared on its hind legs and spun about in pain, sucking the brown stump of its tongue back into its mouth with an ugly popping noise.	10
6	149	The tharlarion sunk a bit lower in the marsh, half closing its eyes.	10
6	158	After all, what did I expect? That she would thank me for saving her life? She had undoubtedly left me to the tharlarion, rejoicing in the luck of a Ubar's daughter, that her enemies might destroy one another while she escaped with her life.	10
6	159	I wondered how far she would get in the swamps before another tharlarion caught her scent.	10
6	162	Idly, with repulsion, I watched the body of the tharlarion in the swamp.	10
6	181	Few warriors will risk their lives to capture a woman who may be as ugly as a tharlarion.	10
7	15	Her robes still bore the wide lateral stain where the tongue of the tharlarion had wrapped itself.	10
7	165	In spite of my hold on her wrist, which must have been tight and painful, the daughter of Marlenus straightened herself before me and said arrogantly, "You tharlarion! Do you think that the daughter of the Ubar of all Gor would submit to such as you?" Cruelly I forced her to her knees before me, the...	10
7	197	I felt ashamed and resolved that I would do no harm to this girl, though she was as wicked and faithless as a tharlarion.	10
9	44	Even so, the surface of the highway had been worn smooth, and the ruts of tharlarion carts were clearly visible, ruts worn deep by centuries of caravans.	10
9	58	Weeds were growing between cracks in the stone flooring of the highway, and the ruts of the tharlarion carts had all but disappeared.	10
9	86	I listened carefully, hearing the distant clank of a shod tharlarion on the road.	10
9	91	The ringing of the tharlarion's shod claws on the road grew louder.	10
9	92	In a minute the rider appeared in view—a fine, bearded warrior with a golden helmet and a tharlarion lance.	10
9	115	There is a camp there such as you have never seen—a city of tents, pasangs of tharlarion corrals; the wings of the tarns sound like thunder overhead.	10
9	137	I have heard she has the temper of a tharlarion and a face to match!" Talena stiffened, her pride offended.	10
9	141	"Yield her or I will have my tharlarion trample you," he snapped, "or would you prefer to be spitted on my lance?" "You know the codes," I said evenly.	10
9	145	"Done!" he cried, fastening his lance in its saddle sheath and slipping from the back of the tharlarion.	10
10	70	"Great Mintar," I spoke up, "forgive this she-tharlarion.	10
10	104	"Let the Priest-Kings blast me if she didn't do it," said Kazrak with admiration, "A true she-tharlarion".	10
10	120	When the high tharlarion moves slowly, its stride is best described as a proud, stalking movement, each great clawed foot striking the earth with a measured rhythm.	10
10	121	When urged to speed, however, the high tharlarion bounds, in great leaping movements that carry it twenty paces at a time.	10
10	122	The tharlarion saddle, unlike the tarn saddle, is constructed to absorb shock.	10
10	126	In addition, the mounted warriors inevitably wear a high, soft pair of boots called tharlarion boots.	10
10	128	When a tharlarion runs, its hide could tear the unprotected flesh from a man's bones.	10
10	162	"By the Priest-Kings," laughed Kazrak, "I believe you care for the she-tharlarion".	10
10	210	Talena blushed and lowered her face, rubbing vigorously on the leather of my tharlarion boots.	10
11	5	Talena ran to the foot of my tharlarion, and with my lance I hoisted her to the saddle so that she could see.	10
11	27	The venture might be risky, particularly if I had to steal the tarn and elude pursuit, but, all things considered, an escape on tarnback seemed to me far safer than trying to cross the Vosk and make our way on foot or tharlarion through the hills and wilderness to the distant cylinders of Ko-ro-ba.	10
11	114	She clenched her body against mine, the buckles of the wide tharlarion belt cutting into her belly.	10
12	92	Had we done so, I might have seen the war horde of Pa-Kur on its way to Ar, with its marching columns, its lines of tharlarion riders, its foraging cavalries of tarnsmen, its supply wagons and pack animals.	10
14	15	At the entrance of the cave two of his men had set a tharlarion lance, of the sort carried by Kazrak and his men, in a crevice obviously prepared to receive it.	10
14	74	Two others removed the tharlarion lance from its crevice and brought it forward.	10
15	2	Its splendid, defiant shimmering cylinders loomed proudly behind the snowy marble ramparts, its double walls—the first three hundred feet high; the second, separated from the first by twenty yards, four hundred feet high—walls wide enough to drive six tharlarion wagons abreast on their...	10
15	27	Over these bridges the siege towers would be rolled to the walls of Ar; over them his tharlarion cavalry would march; over them his horde would flow.	10
15	56	At last I reached the section of the tharlarion corrals.	10
15	60	I had carefully determined that the corral into which I dropped did not contain the saddle lizards, the high tharlarions, those ridden by Kazrak and his tharlarion lancers.	10
15	68	I was searching for Kazrak's tent, which lay in the outer ring near the tharlarion corrals.	10
15	77	He lit the small hanging tent lamp, a wick set in a copper bowl of tharlarion oil, and in its flickering light turned to the sleeping mat.	10
16	19	The human resources on which Pa-Kur could draw seemed inexhaustible, and, as important, he had at his command a considerable force of tharlarion cavalry, an arm almost lacking to the men of Ar.	10
16	94	"Goodbye, Sword Brother," he said, and turned and left the tent, as if he might have been merely going to the tharlarion corrals or to take his post for guard duty, as in our caravan days.	10
17	64	Pa-Kur himself rode a black tharlarion, one of the few I had seen.	10
17	68	The palanquin was set down beside the tharlarion of Pa-Kur.	10
17	76	A chain of gold was slung to Pa-Kur, who fastened it to the saddle of his tharlarion.	10
17	78	The procession resumed to the beat of the tarn drums and Talena, bound in chains of gold, walked, slowly, with dignity, beside the tharlarion of her captor, Pa-Kur, the Assassin.	10
17	79	My wonder and horror must have been written large on my face, because a tharlarion lancer standing beside me regarded me with amusement.	10
18	66	I could see the tharlarion on which he rode, the figure of the Assassin, and the slip of a girl, in her white robe, who, beside the animal, walked like a Ubara, though barefoot and chained to its saddle.	10

Book 2. (20 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
9	59	The two giant beams that barred it were in place, beams that could only be moved by a team of broad tharlarion, draft lizards of Gor, or by a hundred slaves.	10
9	65	On each side of the door, in a small niche sheltered from the drizzle, there sputtered the yellow flame of a small tharlarion-oil lamp.	10
9	149	The Kal-da flowed free that night and thrice the oil in the hanging tharlarion lamps needed to be renewed by the sweating, joyful proprietor of the Kal-da shop.	10
9	152	The lights in the tharlarion lamps had finally flickered and gone out, and the chill light of dawn at last bleakly illuminated the room.	10
10	34	It was a far cry from the broad-portaled central cylinders of many of the Gorean cities, through which a brace of golden-harnessed tharlarion might be driven with ease.	10
11	10	The halls were lit occasionally by tharlarion oil lamps set in iron fixtures mounted in the walls.	10
12	4	The place was lit by a small, foul tharlarion-oil lamp set in the wall near the ceiling.	10
12	36	The shadows of the tiny tharlarion-oil lamp far above flickered on the walls, on the face of the girl.	10
13	64	"She will have you all boiled alive in tharlarion oil," he said, laughing.	10
17	2	A small, foul tharlarion-oil lamp burned at each end.	10
17	48	In the half light, from the small tharlarion-oil lamps set in each end of the room, I saw the heavy, squat figure beside Ost loop his wrist chain silently about the creature's thin throat.	10
17	78	Light is supplied by tiny lamps, no more than small cups of tharlarion oil with fiber wicks.	10
20	17	In the frenetic melee in the darkness, or in the light of the tharlarion-oil lamp, perhaps the slaves had not noticed the scabbard, or wanted it.	10
21	6	Through the trees I could see tent canvas, a tharlarion wagon, the strap-masters unharnessing a brace of low tharlarions, the huge, herbivorous draft lizards of Gor.	10
21	15	I saw that the cover of the tharlarion wagon, which had been rolled back, was of blue and yellow silk.	10
21	73	"Sorry, Sweet Wench," said the grizzled man, giving the girl's head a friendly shake, "but we don't want Targo coming over here with his whip and beating the tharlarion oil out of us both, do we?" Sobbing silently the girl's head fell down again on her breast.	10
21	78	Had I attempted to free her, it would have been as much an act of theft as if I had driven off the tharlarion wagon.	10
21	198	"Quiet, She-Tharlarion!" he said.	10
22	4	The light was furnished by a brass tharlarion-oil lamp which swung on three chains.	10
23	117	There were no tharlarion wagons or lines of woodsmen or peddlers making their way to or from the city.	10

Book 4. (43 results) Nomads of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
10	223	As soon as the hundreds of ponderous tharlarion had been marshaled into an order, a lance, carrying a fluttering pennon, dipped and there was a sudden signal on the tharlarion drums.	10
17	27	It would probably be a sea-tharlarion, or perhaps several such; sometimes the smaller sea-tharlarion, seemingly not much more than teeth and tail, fluttering in packs beneath the waves, are even more to be feared than their larger brethren, some of whom in whose jaws an entire galley can be raised f...	10
1	33	These barges, constructed of layered timbers of Ka-la-na wood, are towed by teams of river tharlarion, domesticated, vast, herbivorous, web-footed lizards raised and driven by the Cartius bargemen, fathers and sons, interrelated clans, claiming the status of a caste for themselves.	10
1	34	Even with the harnessed might of several huge tharlarion drawing toward the opposite shore the crossing took us several pasangs downriver.	10
2	38	And if I should manage to seize it, how could I carry it away? I had no tarn, one of Gor's fierce saddlebirds; I had not even the monstrous high tharlarion, used as the mounts of shock cavalry by the warriors of some cities.	10
2	103	The kaiila is extremely agile, and can easily outmaneuver the slower, more ponderous high tharlarion.	10
5	68	The interiors of the wagons, lashed shut, protected from the dust of the march, are often rich, marvelously carpeted and hung, filled with chests and silks, and booty from looted caravans, lit by hanging tharlarion-oil lamps, the golden light of which falls on the silken cushions, the ankle-deep, in...	10
7	74	Although there were risks involved I tried to translate as exactly as I could, letting Miss Cardwell speak as she would, though her words must often have sounded fantastic to the Tuchuks, for it was largely of a world alien to them that she spoke—a world not of autonomous cities but of huge n...	10
8	37	From these raids the Wagon Peoples obtain a miscellany of goods which they are willing to barter to the Turians, jewels, precious metals, spices, colored table salts, harnesses and saddles for the ponderous tharlarion, furs of small river animals, tools for the field, scholarly scrolls, inks and pap...	10
8	434	"Very well, he-tharlarion," said the girl, "your bola—against a kiss".	10
10	83	When I had lifted her to her feet I noted, in the distance, a bit of dust moving from one of the gates of the city towards us, probably two or three warriors mounted on high tharlarion.	10
10	99	I laughed and wheeled the kaiila and raced from the place, leaving the riders of the ponderous tharlarion far behind.	10
10	215	On long lines of tharlarion I could see warriors of Turia approaching in procession the Plains of a Thousand Stakes.	10
10	216	The morning sun flashed from their helmets, their long tharlarion lances, the metal embossments on their oval shields, unlike the rounded shields of most Gorean cities.	10
10	217	I could hear, like the throbbing of a heart, the beating of the two tharlarion drums that set the cadence of the march.	10
10	218	Beside the tharlarion walked other men-at-arms, and even citizens of Turia, and more vendors and musicians, come to see the games.	10
10	224	Immediately the lances of the lines lowered and the hundreds of tharlarion, hissing and grunting, their riders shouting, the drums beating, began to bound rapidly towards us.	10
10	226	There was nothing living on Gor I knew that could take the impact of a tharlarion charge.	10
10	230	I wheeled the kaiila, looking for Elizabeth Cardwell, who, afoot, would be slain almost before the tharlarion had crossed the lines of the stakes.	10
10	231	She was standing facing the charging tharlarion, as though rooted to the earth, her hands before her face.	10
10	234	I straightened up and saw that the lines of the tharlarion lancers had, with much pounding and trampling of the earth, with shouting, with the hissing of the great beasts, stopped short, abruptly, some fifteen yards or so behind their line of stakes.	10
10	258	"Hah!" said Kamchak, seeing now the lines of tharlarion part for a space of perhaps forty yards, through which could be seen the screened palanquins of Turian damsels, some on the shoulders of chained slaves, among them undoubtedly men of the Wagon Peoples.	10
10	363	"It's vague," muttered Kamchak, wavering, "I had in mind I think the face of a slave—there was, as I recall, a collar—" "You tharlarion," she said.	10
10	450	The warrior of the Wagon Peoples does not use the short sword, probably because such a weapon could not be optimally used from the saddle of the kaiila; the saber, incidentally, which would be somewhat more effective from kaiilaback, is almost unknown on Gor; its role, I gather, is more than fulfill...	10
10	454	The saber, incidentally, is not only unpopular among the Wagon Peoples but among the warriors of Gor generally; it is regarded as being too long and clumsy a weapon for the close, sharp combat so dear to the heart of the warrior of the cities; further it is not of much use from the saddle of a tarn ...	10
11	55	"Surely you are aware," said Saphrar, "that a slave cannot own property—any more than a kaiila, a tharlarion or sleen".	10
14	36	In the light of the Gorean moons we saw slaughtered bosk, some hundreds of them, and, some two hundred yards away, withdrawing, perhaps a thousand warriors mounted on tharlarion.	10
15	7	Four times masses of tharlarion cavalry had charged forth from the city but each time the Hundreds withdrew before them until the charge had been enveloped in the swirling kaiila, and then its riders were brought down swiftly by the flashing arrows of the Tuchuks, riding in closely, almost to lance ...	10
15	8	Several times also, hosts of tharlarion had attempted to protect caravans leaving the city, or advanced to meet scheduled caravans approaching Turia, but each time in spite of this support, the swift, harrying, determined riders of the Tuchuks had forced the caravans to turn back, or man by man, bea...	10
15	11	The archery of tarnsmen, of course, is most effective against massed infantry or clusters of the ponderous tharlarion.	10
17	30	Yet, if it had been a tharlarion or a Vosk turtle, it might well have broken the surface for air.	10
17	33	These two, even before the tharlarion or the turtle, would by now, presumably, have surfaced to breathe.	10
19	83	The light in the room was furnished by a single tharlarion-oil lamp which hung from the ceiling.	10
21	45	I was hardly questioned by guards at the gates of Turia, for the city is a commercial oasis in the plains and during a year hundreds of caravans, not to mention thousands of small merchants, on foot or with a single tharlarion wagon, enter her gates.	10
21	191	It was drawn not by the draft tharlarion like most merchant wagons but, like some, by four brown bosk.	10
21	201	"Even could I steal a kaiila or tharlarion," I said, "there are tarnsmen—" "Yes," she said, "that is true".	10
21	343	Somewhere, off on the other side of the wagon, I heard the heavy grunting of a tharlarion and the squealing of a kaiila, the meeting of lances and shields.	10
22	24	I could smell tharlarion oil on the walls, waiting to be fired and poured on those who might attempt to dig at the walls or mount ladders against them.	10
25	2	Within, a girl, across the wagon, beyond the tiny fire bowl in the center of its floor, standing on the thick rug, near a hanging tharlarion-oil lamp, turned suddenly to face me.	10
25	632	She laughed happily and turned, and standing on her tiptoes, lowered the tharlarion oil lamps.	10
26	144	The passage was on the whole dark, but where it branched there was often set a small, burning tharlarion-oil lamp.	10
26	326	From it, wet, wrinkled, rotted, dead for perhaps months or years, he drew forth the body of an unborn tharlarion.	10
26	488	"It was for such a reason," he said, "that we Tuchuks dyed the egg of a tharlarion and placed it in the wagon of Kutaituchik, letting its position be known".	10

21	298	Yet, in the day of the tharlarion and tarn, one still finds, among infantries, the Torian Square; the phalanx, though its impact could be exceeded only by the tharlarion wedge or line, is now unknown, except for a defensive relic known as the Wall, in which massed infantry remains stationary, heroic...	10
2	16	Kuurus pointed to a fruit on a flat-topped wagon with wooden wheels, drawn by a small four-legged, horned tharlarion.	10
2	51	From where she knelt she could see the low-hanging tharlarion oil lamps of the main portion of the paga tavern, the men, the girls in silk who, in a moment, belled, would move among them, replenishing the paga.	10
2	147	The first Warrior lunged toward the Assassin but in the darkness of the side of the room, in the dim light of the tharlarion lamps, it was difficult to tell what happened.	10
2	185	He was further in danger by virtue of his controlling measures restricting certain monopolies important to certain factions among the Merchants, in particular those having to do with the manufacture of bricks, and the distribution of salt and tharlarion oil.	10
3	22	The man who called out wore a robe of checkered red and yellow squares, and the game board, of similar squares, with ten ranks and ten files, giving a hundred squares, hung over his back; slung over his left shoulder, as a warrior wears a sword, was a leather bag containing the pieces, twenty to a s...	10
3	38	The odds are usually one to forty, one copper tarn disk against a forty-piece, sometimes against an eighty-piece, and sometimes the amateur who would play the master insists on further limitations, such as the option to three consecutive moves at a point in the game of his choice, or that the master...	10
3	180	"Ubar's Rider of the High Tharlarion," said the Player, "to Ubar's Physician Eight".	10
3	184	Was this man not a Player? Relentlessly the Vintner forced through again with his Second Spearman, this time capturing the Player's Ubara's Rider of the High Tharlarion.	10
3	210	The crowd and I cried out with delight, marveling on it, the now-apparent simplicity of it, the attack which had been not so much mounted as revealed by the apparently meaningless moves, intended only to clear the board for the vital attack, coming from the improbable Ubara's Scribe, one of the leas...	10
4	247	I hoped she would not be too successful in her exhibition or I might end up bubbling in a vat of boiling tharlarion oil.	10
5	15	In a girl's collar lock there would be either six pins or six disks, one each, it is said, for each letter in the Gorean word for female slave, Kajira; the male slave, or Kajirus, seldom has a locked collar; normally a band of iron is simply hammered about his neck; often he works in chains, usually...	10
5	29	Another form of lock difficult to guard against is the pit lock, because of the natural crevices in Gorean tiling commonly found in corridors of cylinders; when tampered with a trap falls away beneath the individual, dropping him to a pit below, usually containing knives fixed in stone, but upon occ...	10
5	617	I had decided to wait until the Fourth Passage Hand, that following En'Var, and then take tarn for Ar, where I would pose as a mercenary tarnsman seeking employment in the House of Cernus, but when the Warrior from Thentis, who resembled me, was slain early in En'Var, I decided to go to Ar in the gu...	10
7	48	Some, for example, are little more than flat cradles for carrying planking and such; others are long and cylindrical, lined with verrskin, for transporting beverages and such; most heavy hauling, of course, is done by tharlarion wagon; a common sort of tarn basket, of the sort in which I found mysel...	10
11	4	Other rows of cells were rather more ornate, with heavy intricate grillwork taking the place of bars, hung with red silks, floored with furs and perhaps lit by a small tharlarion-oil lamp set in a barred recess.	10
12	12	The other bird was apparently only stunned, and it was being rolled to the edge of the net where it would be dropped into a large wheeled frame, drawn by two horned tharlarion, onto a suspended canvas, where it was immediately secured by broad canvas straps.	10
12	90	Eight tarns were flying in this race, and, hooded, they were brought forth on low, sideless wheeled platforms, drawn by horned tharlarion.	10

15	102	Upon occasion, and it had happened early in Se'Kara this year, the arena is flooded and a sea fight is staged, the waters for the occasion being filled with a variety of unpleasant sea life, water tharlarion, Vosk turtles, and the nine-gilled Gorean shark, the latter brought in tanks on river barges...	10
16	5	This was hailed as generosity on his part by those of Ar, who were familiar with and had experienced to their sorrow, particularly since the deposition of Kazrak, the effect of a number of monopolies, in particular those in salt and tharlarion oil.	10
16	231	Throughout the stands, startling those multitudes, unsettling the other birds being drawn by the horned tharlarion on the low carts, there was heard the sudden shrill, ringing challenge scream of a tarn, unhooded, a giant tarn, black, a wild mountain cry of one of Gor's fiercest, most beautiful pred...	10
17	165	"He has sponsored many games," said a Tharlarion Keeper.	10
18	327	I could see the bread ovens in one wall; the long fire pit over which could be put cooking racks, the mountings for spits and kettle hooks; the fire pit was mostly black now, but, here and there, I could see a few broken sticks of glowing charcoal; aside from this, the light in the room came from on...	10
18	364	They were dark, save that each, at intervals of some thirty yards, was lit with a small tharlarion-oil lamp.	10
19	11	Hooded, a chain on my throat, my wrists in steel behind my back, I stumbled after a tharlarion wagon, to the back of which my throat chain had been bolted, through the streets of Ar.	10
19	14	On the seat of the wagon, which was drawn by a horned tharlarion, sat the driver and the Scribe whom I had known as Caprus, whose real name, as I had been informed, was Philemon of Tyros, an island some hundreds of pasangs west of Port Kar.	10
21	297	The invention and perfecting of the Torian Squares and the consequent attempts to refine and improve the phalanx, failures, were developments which had preceded the use of tharlarion and tarn cavalries, which radically changed the face of Gorean warfare.	10

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
1	7	Immediately following I saw the water seem to glitter for a moment, a rain of yellowish streaks beneath the surface, in the wake of the water tharlarion, doubtless its swarm of scavengers, tiny water tharlarion, about six inches long, little more than teeth and tail.	10
6	221	My leg was out of the water, but now the water seemed yellow with the flashing bodies of tiny tharlarion, and, beyond them, I heard the hoarse grunting of the great marsh tharlarion, some of which grow to be more than thirty feet in length, weighing more than half a hundred men.	10
1	6	To my right, some two or three feet under the water, I saw the sudden, rolling yellowish flash of the slatted belly of a water tharlarion, turning as it made its swift strike, probably a Vosk carp or marsh turtle.	10
1	10	Only one creature in the marshes dares to outline itself against the sky, the predatory Ul, the winged tharlarion.	10
1	71	Man has not surrendered it entirely to the tharlarion, the Ul and the salt leech.	10
1	79	Rence paper is made by slicing the stem into thin, narrow strips; those near the center of the plant are particularly favored; one layer of strips is placed longitudinally, and then a shorter layer is placed latitudinally across the first layer; these two surfaces are then soaked under water, which ...	10
1	103	Not only must they fear the marsh sharks and the carnivorous eels which frequent the lower delta, not to mention the various species of aggressive water tharlarion and the winged, monstrous, hissing, predatory Ul, but they must fear, perhaps most of all, men, and of these, most of all, the men of Po...	10
2	33	This was a paraphrase of a saying common on Gor, given by passing strangers to those through whose territories they would travel: Only the span of the wings of my tarn, only the girth of my tharlarion, only the width of my body, and no more, and that but for the time it takes to pass.	10
3	6	It is dangerous to enter the water to make a tether fast because of the predators that frequent the swamp, but several men do so at a time, one man making fast the tether and the others, with him beneath the surface, protecting him with marsh spears, or pounding on metal pieces or wooden rods to dri...	10
3	176	"We could kill tharlarion," said Ho-Hak, "and obtain leather.	10

3	233	"That rightless he should serve the Growers of Rence as a beast of burden?" "Let us rather throw him to tharlarion," said the man with the headband of the pearls of the Vosk sorp.	10

3	263	"The teeth of the tharlarion," said he, "are swift, Warrior".	10
3	290	"Perhaps now," said Ho-Hak, "we shall throw you to tharlarion".	10
3	293	To me, at that moment, it seemed I cared not whether they chose to throw me to tharlarion or not.	10
3	298	It was true that they might now throw me to tharlarion.	10
4	66	"If you do not obey me in all things, and swiftly," had said the girl, "I will have the men bind you and throw you to tharlarion.	10
4	74	It would not be hard for the men of the rence islands, in their hundreds, to cut off escape, to find me, if the tharlarion did not manage to do so first.	10
4	173	The bit of stem took the fire and with it she lit a tiny lamp, also sitting in a shallow copper bowl, which burned tharlarion oil.	10
5	223	In this tiny flame I thrust a bit of rence stem, from a bundle of such, and, with it, lit the tiny tharlarion-oil lamp set in its copper bowl.	10
5	225	The tharlarion-oil lamp, now lit, flickering, illuminated the interior of the hut with a yellowish light.	10
6	88	"Tharlarion!" he shouted at the men of Port Kar.	10
6	97	We saw one rencer screaming in the water, caught in the jaws of a marsh tharlarion.	10
6	181	I lifted him over my head and threw him screaming into the jaws of tharlarion churning the marsh at the edge of the island.	10
6	195	On one side there was the marsh, with its marsh sharks and its tharlarion.	10
6	220	My leg slipped from the island into the water and suddenly a tiny tharlarion struck it, seizing his bit of flesh and backing, tail whipping, away.	10
7	44	I saw an Ul, the winged tharlarion, high overhead, beating its lonely way eastward over the marsh.	10
7	117	Still, the escape of a slave girl, or of a male slave, must indeed be rare from canaled Port Kar, protected as it is on one side by the Tamber Gulf and gleaming Thassa, and on the other by the interminable marshes, with their sharks and tharlarion.	10
7	177	Under the water I saw a tharlarion move toward it.	10
8	62	I heard a thrashing in the water on the other side of the barge, the hoarse grunting of a suddenly emerged marsh tharlarion.	10
8	65	The girl bound to the prow, however, startled, hysterical, seeing the tumult of tharlarion below her, each tearing for a part of the unexpected prize, began to scream uncontrollably.	10
8	66	The slaves in the punt, too, striking down with their glaves, shoving away tharlarion, began to cry out.	10
8	90	Sometimes merely the movement of a tharlarion or the flutter of a marsh gant, something completely unrelated to us, would summon a great falling and hissing of bolts into the marsh.	10
8	116	With the noose of marsh vine I dragged him over the side of the hull, lowering him into the marsh, holding him until I felt the tharlarion take him from me, drawing him away.	10

8	464	"Do you not fear that I will throw you bound to tharlarion?" I asked.	10

8	588	A huge tharlarion, seeing the image on the water, half rose from the marsh, jaws clashing, and then dropped back into the water.	10
8	589	Two or three more tharlarion then churned there beneath her.	10
8	698	"If not," she said, "I expect you will have the barges sunk in the marsh, that we may all be fed to tharlarion".	10
9	62	I had learned that beneath the hide of men burned the hearts of sleen and tharlarion, and that their moralities and ideals were so many cloaks to conceal the claw and the tooth.	10
9	137	That left the delta, with its interminable marshes, and the thirst, and the tharlarion.	10
10	256	It is called the wingfish because it can, on its stiff pectoral fins, for short distances, glide through the air, usually in an attempt to flee small sea tharlarion, who are immune to the poison of the spines.	10
11	190	The fires were now substantially out in the properties of Eteocles, Nigel and Sullius Maximus, though a warehouse of the latter, in which was stored tharlarion oil, still blazed.	10
11	410	Other studies, the results of which would be kept similarly private to the council, dealt with the city defenses, and her stores of wood, grain, salt, stone and tharlarion oil.	10
13	32	"Tharlarion!" he cried.	10
13	33	"Tharlarion of Port Kar!" "I gather," I said, smiling, "that our terms of peace are rejected".	10

15	311	And, as the torches burned lower in the wall racks, the singer continued to sing, and sang of gray Pa-Kur, Master of the Assassins, leader of the hordes that fell on Ar after the theft of her Home Stone; and he sang, too, of banners and black helmets, of upraised standards, of the sun flashing on th...	10
16	286	Outside the holding, on the broad promenade before the holding, bordering on the lakelike courtyard, with the canal gate beyond, I ordered a swift, tharlarion-prowed longboat made ready.	10
16	298	The tharlarion head of the craft turned toward the canal gate.	10
16	315	He looked at me, wonderingly, and then the tharlarion-prowed longboat glided past him in the canal, leaving him behind.	10
16	319	The canals we traversed were crowded, mostly with small tharlarion boats, loaded with goods, moving this way and that.	10
16	342	Even before the man in the bow had tied the tharlarion-prowed longboat to a mooring post at the piazza, I had leaped up to the tiles and was striding, robes swirling, across the squares of the broad piazza toward the great door of the hall of the Council of Captains.	10
17	361	These flasks, I knew, were filled with tharlarion oil, and the rags that corked them had been soaked in the same substance.	10
17	381	And then, their fighters disembarked, the birds with their riders swept away, up into the black, vicious sleeting sky, to light the oily rags, one by one, in the clay flasks of tharlarion oil and hurl them, from the heights of the sky, down onto the decks of ships of Cos and Tyros.	10

24	259	With a tiny, almost imperceptible movement, the tiniest motion of their short legs, the four tharlarion, almost ringing the girl, seemed to drift again toward her, like half-submerged, meaningless logs, save for the methodicality of their convergence.	10
24	263	At the same time, sensing the sudden movement of the prey, the four tharlarion, lashing the water with their tails, cut toward her.	10
24	268	The canoe began to tip backward as another tharlarion clambered, half out of the water, onto its stern.	10
24	273	With the splintered handle of the paddle Kisu jabbed at the tharlarion.	10
24	276	Another tharlarion struck at the side of the canoe with its snout.	10
24	279	Another tharlarion slipped beneath the canoe.	10
24	281	"Do not let them under it!" I thrust at the water with the paddle, and then, as the tharlarion began to surface under the slender vessel, pushed down at it.	10
24	284	The tharlarion were quick to follow, snapping and bellowing.	10
24	288	He hurled more fish to another tharlarion, which, with a snapping, popping noise, clamped shut its jaws on the salty provender.	10
24	300	Ayari then threw bits of fish into the water, where the tharlarion must swim to them, to obtain them.	10
24	302	Then he scattered several scraps of fish at one time, in an arc behind the tharlarion.	10
24	304	The tharlarion, distracted and feeding, did not follow.	10
26	27	There we saw a tharlarion, sunning itself on a bar.	10
28	8	At night we would pull the canoe ashore, camouflage it, and make our camp about a half pasang inland, to minimize any danger from possible tharlarion, which tend to remain near the water.	10
29	162	"Your slavery will be of little use to men," I said, "if you, through your ignorance, must be soon thrown alive to sleen or tharlarion".	10
29	224	Sometimes they even sun themselves on the backs of resting or napping tharlarion.	10
29	225	Should the tharlarion submerge the tiny fish often submerges with it, staying close to it, but away from its jaws.	10
29	226	Its proximity to the tharlarion affords it, interestingly, an effective protection against most of its natural predators, in particular the black eel, which will not approach the sinuous reptiles.	10
29	227	Similarly the tiny fish can thrive on the scraps from the ravaging jaws of the feeding tharlarion.	10
29	228	They will even drive one another away from their local tharlarion, fighting in contests of intraspecific aggression, over the plated territory of the monster's back.	10
32	722	In the pool, clambering over one another, lifting their jaws upward were crocodiles, beasts like river tharlarion but differently hided and plated".	10
32	726	The marsh and river tharlarion, accordingly, if descended from such beasts, brought long ago to Gor on Voyages of Acquisition by Priest-Kings, would presumably resemble them more closely.	10
32	820	"Remember," she said, "that I was forced to do this, that I not be hurled to the waiting jaws of crocodiles, beasts much like river tharlarion.	10
43	7	It was similar to the tiny lung fish I had seen earlier on the river, those little creatures clinging to the half-submerged roots of shore trees, and, as often as not, sunning themselves on the backs of tharlarion, those tiny fish called gints.	10
43	106	"Too," I said, "had she been at the post overnight is it not likely that tharlarion would have discovered her and eaten her from the chains?" "Yes, Master," said Janice.	10
44	4	There seemed no tharlarion or danger about, but it would not hurt to maintain a vigilance in such a respect.	10
44	202	The word 'Mamba' in most of the river dialects does not refer to a venomous reptile as might be expected, given its meaning in English, but, interestingly, is applied rather generally to most types of predatory river tharlarion.	10
44	203	The Mamba people were, so to speak, the Tharlarion people.	10
44	205	So, too, does the tharlarion.	10
50	14	On ridgework near the water turtles and tharlarion sunned themselves.	10
50	37	A tharlarion splashed from the landing into the water.	10

18	166	These are usually larger and more agile beasts than common saddle tharlarion and are smaller, of course, than either draft tharlarion or war tharlarion, the latter used almost exclusively in the tharlarion cavalries of Gor, huge, upright beasts, several tons in weight, guided by voice commands and t...	10
13	176	I led the tharlarion into a small, sanded, sunny area near the shop of Philebus, looping its reins twice about a tharlarion ring there.	10
18	164	We did not, in the great stables, raise saddle tharlarion, though in the house stables, here in the mistress' villa, some forty pasangs south and west of Vonda, there were several saddle tharlarion.	10
12	85	"Many of you own tharlarion," said the Lady Tendite, calling merrily to the crowd.	10
13	8	I held the reins of her tharlarion.	10
13	62	It is noted for its baths and its tharlarion races.	10
13	120	I proceeded down the street in the direction indicated, leading the tharlarion by its reins.	10
13	121	Small saddle tharlarion are generally managed by snout reins.	10
13	122	The huge war tharlarion are commonly guided by voice signals and the blows of spears on the face and neck.	10
13	123	Draft tharlarion are harnessed, and can be managed either by men, or usually boys, who walk beside them, or by reins and whips, controlled by drivers, men mounted in drawn wagons.	10
13	137	* * * * "You will tether the tharlarion, Jason," said the Lady Florence.	10
13	150	If she wished this I would fetch her the chain, when I had tethered the tharlarion.	10
13	178	These tharlarion rings are quite similar to slave rings.	10
13	179	Indeed, the only real difference between them is their function, the one being used to tether tharlarion and the other slaves.	10
13	181	I looked at the tharlarion.	10
13	185	The Lady Florence owned many tharlarion.	10
13	204	Some light, two-wheeled carriages passed, drawn by tharlarion.	10
13	309	When departing from main roads such troops can be followed by bosk wagons or tharlarion wagons, bearing supplies.	10
13	874	"Bring the tharlarion, Jason," said the Lady Florence.	10
13	876	In a few moments I had freed and fetched the tharlarion.	10
13	883	I lifted her sandaled foot upward, and she took her place in the leather seat at the side of the tharlarion's back.	10
13	896	I lifted the reins of the tharlarion to the Lady Florence.	10
13	911	The Lady Florence guided her tharlarion out into the street.	10
13	927	Then she looked away, again guiding the tharlarion.	10
14	6	We were within her house in the resort city of Venna, noted for its baths and tharlarion races.	10
16	193	Turbus Veminius and one of his fellows had merely spent those times engaged in conversation, pertaining to the tharlarion races.	10
16	336	About fifty yards down the alley was a high-sided tharlarion wagon.	10
17	4	When the tharlarion wagon had arrived at a house in Venna, I had been removed from the slave cage and slave sack.	10
17	135	"I am assured of certain winners in the tharlarion races," she said.	10
18	11	The mistress, with a long, tharlarion quirt, had begun her inspection.	10
18	50	"When we return to your villa near Vonda," he asked, "is the slave to be returned to the house or is it your intention that he serve there, as well as here, in the stables, not your private stables but the great stables?" The Lady Florence owned more than a thousand tharlarion.	10
18	51	She bred and raised tharlarion, and her stables were among the finest in the vicinity of Vonda.	10
18	163	I rather liked the odors of the stables and barns, such complex mixed odors, ranging from straw, and hay and leather, to the organic wastes of our huge charges, some four species of draft tharlarion.	10
18	165	The mistress did not breed and raise racing tharlarion, incidentally.	10
18	167	The Lady Melpomene of Vonda, incidentally, I had heard, for such stories reach even the stables, had fared badly in the tharlarion races in Venna.	10
18	170	As the story went, and my own knowledge, as far as it went, corroborated the story, she had wagered what were, in effect, her last serious financial resources, the proceeds garnered from the sale of her house in Venna, on the outcomes of certain tharlarion races.	10
18	206	Kenneth did not wish me to be torn to pieces between tharlarion, driven in opposite directions.	10
19	166	* * * * "Greetings, Kenneth," said Borto, the driver of the low-bedded tharlarion wagon.	10
19	286	Miles of Vonda, for example, raised hurt as well as tharlarion.	10
19	351	"I must be on my way soon," said Borto, who was the driver of the tharlarion wagon.	10
19	360	In a few moments Borto had climbed to the wagon box and, with a crack of his whip, had urged the two tharlarion whose reins he controlled into motion.	10
20	199	"I trust you take as good care of my tharlarion as you do of your fighters," said the Lady Florence.	10
21	141	These serve to keep the ponderous tharlarion which graze in the meadow confined.	10
21	175	"Away!" cried Barus, waving his cloak at a tharlarion, browsing near the posts.	10
21	177	Later in the morning, on the dusty road outside the posts, a two-wheeled cart passed, drawn by a small tharlarion, driven by a single driver.	10
21	192	He, however, stopped the tharlarion wagon and looked around.	10
21	403	Then, suddenly, the horny snout of a tharlarion thrust up from the hot sand.	10
23	131	Then I knelt across her body and, with the tharlarion snout strap I had had coiled to one side, knotted her hands behind her back.	10
25	31	He was one of the main tharlarion ranchers in the area.	10
25	68	"When Krondar is through with him," laughed a man in the tiers, "a she-tharlarion would not have him for a silk slave!" There was laughter at this.	10
25	282	He may have been a peasant or a tharlarion rancher, or perhaps even a patrolling guardsman.	10
25	302	It was a converted tharlarion wagon and, with bars and extra planking, was unusually stout, probably because its purpose was to transport fighting slaves.	10
25	379	I saw the tharlarion which had drawn the wagon, cut loose and stampeded, lumbering away.	10
26	293	I took two snout straps, those of the sort used to secure the jaws of newly hatched tharlarion.	10
26	300	I hurried to the trapdoor in the floor, that through which newly hatched tharlarion, through the shelter of the tunnels, are brought from the incubation shed to the nursery.	10
27	33	Then I hurled a tharlarion blanket over her.	10
27	34	Then I kicked and dug into the sand near her and, as the trapdoor splintered up, drew the tharlarion blanket over my head.	10
27	229	"Even the tharlarion were turned loose and scattered".	10
28	84	The tharlarion had been released.	10
