15 51 I then heard them, and the rest, leave the side of the moored vessel, moving down the wharf toward the concourse.

24 25 Did not the great ship, in its way, seductive and beckoning, constitute a temptation? I lingered on the wharf, past the fourth and fifth contingents.

24 67 Once on the wharf, the first girl of one ten was fastened to the last girl of the preceding ten, and so on, until there was a single line of slaves, some two hundred, all joined by the left wrist.

24 82 Having reached the wharf in the second contingent, disembarked, I, and some others, of both the first and third contingents, had waited about.

24 90 The slaves, being aligned on the wharf, each ten being fastened to the next ten, looked fearfully up the heights, at the rearing, surmounting castle far above.
Details

25 45 One of these ships, to my great interest, had put in at the wharf a week ago, for water and supplies, and then, a day later, set out to sea again.
Details
10
25 54 I myself suspected that Tersites had at last given eyes to the ship because he was terrified for her, and hoped that she might now, moored at the wharf, be able to see her danger, danger more from men than the sea.
Details
10
26 140 Even the slaves who brought the water and other supplies were not permitted near the baskets and nets, but must kneel on the boards of the wharf, until dismissed, to climb, roped together by the neck, the narrow walled-in path to the castle grounds.
Details
10
26 142 The gate to the wharf area, leading to the walled-in trail, was open, and the coffle, weary and footsore, neck-roped, their burdens delivered, were being herded within, by their young herdsmen.
Details
10
26 148 The burdens they had borne, while not heavy for a man, would have been heavy for a woman, and the climb back to the castle from the wharf, given its twistings and its tortuous steepness, would be time consuming and difficult for either a man or woman.

29 100 "There will be terrible bloodshed on the wharf," I said to Lord Nishida.
Details
10
30 31 It will be recalled that the trail to the wharf was walled-in.
Details
10
30 35 When they reached the foot of the trail they found it barricaded, before the wharf, a barricade manned by several Pani, drawn from the ship, a barricade, given the narrowness of the passage, easily defended by a few against many.
Details
10
30 39 At best, from the trail, they might see the wharf, and the great ship moored there, on a dozen lines, the ship they were unable to reach.

10
31 37 "They will not act," said Seremides, "until the ship's garrison is withdrawn, to the wharf, or trail".
Details
10
31 39 "The trail, the wharf, will be guarded," he said.
Details
10
32 8 Already the Pani with their vessels of oil, and their torches, had begun the descent of the wharf trail.
Details
10
32 16 The trail, with its tortuous twisting, taking advantage of the side of the mountain, was better than a pasang in length, but, it seemed in a moment, I saw the wharf.
Details
10
32 46 The ship moved a bit from the wharf at the bow, moving to port, but there was a jerk and a vibration of line, and the ship was stopped, pulling against the line.
