8	252	I was not much concerned with how those of Port Kar had determined who would be passenger on that fugitive vessel.	10
8	345	As I, in the chair of the oar-master, faced the bow of the vessel, he, as slave at the benches, faced its stern, and the chair of the oar-master, that which now served me as Ubar's throne, in this small wooden country lost in the marshes of the Vosk's delta.	10

30	23	The "port side," or left side of the vessel, facing forward, at least on Gor, and perhaps on Earth, may have received its name from keeping harbor buoys to one's left as the port is entered.	10

30	48	Such blades are designed to shear away a galley's oars, thus crippling her, and preparing her for a ramming, usually amidships, which is a blow of considerable force, easily sufficient to rupture and flood the prey vessel, and occasionally sufficient to snap her in two.	10

2	190	How absurd to have fired flaming javelins at such a vessel.	10
2	260	A hand was outstretched, over the vessel's side, it rocking, toward me.	10
3	34	And would they not view me as their enemy, for did our ship not fire upon their mountain of wood when it trod, however unwittingly, upon our vessel? I had heard the harsh crackings, marking the launching of sets of javelins, doubtless ignited.	10
3	67	This suggested to me, but did not prove, that this mysterious, monstrous vessel in which I found myself encelled, despite its size, was not a round ship, or, better, not a round ship as one usually thinks of such ships.	10

8	464	She retrieved the vessel, wrapped in its cloths.	10
8	466	"Hurry," I said, "run, run!" She turned about, in misery, and, holding the vessel in its cloths, hurried away.	10
10	90	Surely, any moment now the great vessel would settle, water pouring in through broken timbers.	10
11	5	And how might one expect to see a sail this far at sea, for we had come farther than any vessel had formerly come, at least to our knowledge.	10
12	181	The would-be assassin, perhaps discovering that she must keep both hands on, or, more likely, unwilling to keep both hands on, say, a vessel is reluctant, hesitant, or disconcerted.	10
13	3	We had clambered aboard the vessel, from a small ship's boat, cutting through the masses of snarled, ropelike, blossomed vines which encircled it, covering it, almost obscuring it.	10
13	13	It was a round ship, of sorts, a vessel not made for war.	10

16	19	By the time the great ship drew near the drifting vessel, my watch was done, but I remained on deck.	10
16	102	The enemy, I gathered, had not expected a vessel the size of the ship of Tersites, and many stood confused below, crying out, and shaking their weapons.	10
19	40	Perhaps at first she might be terrified, or dismayed, to discover herself become so helpless, the victim and prisoner of needs so fierce and commanding, so uncompromising and uncontrollable, but later, though helpless in their throes, she, as her sisters, would rejoice in the thrashing ecstasies of ...	10

8	521	I had had some interaction, in a tavern, with the fellow who seemed to be the high officer of the armsmen on the second vessel.	10

9	118	"Approach," we were told, and, gratefully, we then stood on the beach, beside the disembarked cargo of the small vessel.	10
9	287	"But," said the newcomer, examining us, recently, rudely disembarked from the vessel, examining us as a Gorean examines slaves, "I do not find your own cargo inferior".	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	3	I had some sense of the cargo of the first ship, tools, supplies, slaves, and such, but our vessel was clearly a transport for armsmen.	10
10	42	"Prepare to disembark," called Tyrtaios to the more than a hundred men on the vessel.	10
15	465	Would not a variety of galleys be more practical? For what is so large a vessel required? It is much larger, many times larger, I am told, than even the largest of common round ships, or cargo vessels, which, too, are apparently very different from the long, low, knifelike vessels of war.	10
15	476	Why would tarns be needed? What purpose might they serve? Too, even though the vessel was large, it would carry hundreds of times the men required to manage it.	10

21	341	"There is very little in the vessel," said Tyrtaios.	10
21	356	I feared the two beasts were to pounce upon him, given the regard in which they seemed to hold the small vessel, but they stopped suddenly, angrily, apprehensively, for, having broken the seal and removed the bottle's stopper, Tyrtaios held it, as though to spill its contents on the ground.	10
21	469	Tyrtaios, who was not a timid man, had been unwilling to keep even the wallet in which the vessel, closed as it was, had been carried.	10
23	105	How strange I thought that such a vessel would be built here, in this wilderness, in this remote place, so far from the sea.	10
23	147	It seemed less a ship than a fortress, or castle, which might for some mad reason have chosen to disguise itself as a vessel.	10
23	158	I would never be put on that ship as a slave, another coffled beast, a shapely article on an inventory! How terrified had been several of my chain sisters even to think of being embarked on such a vessel.	10
