Here is <law'> in canon, exclusive of law'/puS constructions. This does not
yet include the new material from KGT (I still haven't found the time to add
all the references from KGT page by page into my AKD).

[It] has been emblazoned upon the hulls of countless Klingon starships. SP1
- HoS law'qu' luch law'qu' je lo' Duj nuH pat Hub pat je
A huge amount of the ship's power and technology is devoted to its
weapons grid and
defensive systems. SP3
- chIch vay' 'oy'moHmeH 'oy'naQ 'ul law' tlhuD 'oH
Painstiks... emit a highly-charged shock for the express purpose of
inflicting pain. S32
- HoS law'qu' natlhmo' So'wI'
Due to the tremendous energy drain of a cloaking device... S33
