A29790And is all your mighty News, which you prefaced with so much show and Ceremonie, come to this sorry issue at last?
A29790And what does Interest, meer Interest only do all this?
A29790Any Court- 〈 … 〉 ● ● nen, and no back- biting; any litigious Attorney to 〈 ◊ 〉 And Arbitrations?
A29790Any of the Town Criticks to Modesty?
A29790Any thrice married Widow to impotence?
A29790As the Country Ladies when they come up to Town, enquire in the first place, Which is the newest Play or Lampoon?
A29790But are they all so inveterate?
A29790But may a Man be so happy as to hear you produce any Reasons for what you have said?
A29790But prithee wou''d not you have a man be careful to preserve his Character and Reputation in the World, and study to give as little scandal as may be?
A29790Come tell me now, have I hitupon the true reason or no?
A29790Come then, wert thou ever married, my honest friend?
A29790Conscience do you say?
A29790Crys the Master of the Porcupine, You Rascal, what do you intend by asking me what Sawce I''de have for him?
A29790Dear Sir, your Humble Servant; how have you done this many a fair day, and how long have you been in Town?
A29790Dost thou now comprehend my Meaning?
A29790Got his Reasons ready do you say?
A29790I wou''d desire to know how you make that out, Noble Sir?
A29790Is a 〈 … 〉 ● arlon turn''d a friend to Cleanliness?
A29790Is any noted S ● ● ● ● ian turn''d a Friend to Faith?
A29790Is there then no difference between tolerating and establishing?
A29790Nay the Lord knows, which is Mr. Bay''s Primitive Church; but prithee why dost thou trouble thy head about a Poet''s Religion?
A29790Not married say you?
A29790Of a few Conjugal Sollicitations do you say?
A29790Or any of the Modern Comprehension- men converted to a good Opinion of the poor suffering Ceremonies of the Church?
A29790Or any of the good people of Doctors- Commons to unlicenc ● d Marriges?
A29790Or have any of the topping Sons of Schism by the Bribe of a good Deanry or Bishoprick been converted to the Liturgy?
A29790Or lastly, any Alderman that was begotten on a Bulk, to Heraldry and Pedigrees?
A29790Prithee what story is that, for, to the best of my knowledg, I never heard of it before?
A29790Say you so Tim?
A29790Say you so sir?
A29790Sons of Schism?
A29790The Question is, whether what the Dr. has formerly preached or written, is the true Doctrin of the Church of England or no?
A29790They preserve the Protestant Religion?
A29790To conclude then: Is the Vicar near Charing- Cross convinced there''s not so much Bawdry in the Service of Matrimony as without it?
A29790To proceed then, is the Dr. brought to a better Opinion of the Abdication, or does he go altogether upon the merits of Forefaulture?
A29790VVHo''s that, my old Friend Mr. Freeman, e Comitatu Bucks?
A29790Well then, Granting all you have said to be true, what advantage do you intend to make of it?
A29790Well, and what of all this?
A29790What think you of this now?
A29790What, not one single man amongst the whole Herd, that congratulates the Government for the great Happiness of his Reduction?
A29790When the Fellow was got into his Room at the Inn, he knocks for the Landlord, and asks him whether he had got his Porcupine ready?
A29790Where, or how?
A29790Which is the Topping Mistress of the Court, or the most fashionable Suit of Ribbons at the Exchange?
A29790Who could ever expect that?
A29790Why, prithee Tim, what dost thou take me for, a Prophet, or a Conjurer?
A29790Why, what a Devil did he mean by that question?
A29790or in what Reign, that we may see it registred in our Almanacks?
A29790what a deal of insignificant flourish and preparation is here to usher in, it may be, but a foolish story at last?
A57489* Is it not a Man who is equally renown''d for his great Employments, and his profound Capacity?
A57489After that, what may not one say of you?
A57489And do you think now that forty Years( if a Man shou''d ever come to it) is as fumbling a doting Age in Love, as Dryden says, it is in Poetry?
A57489And does not a Masque give a more Christian- like chase, and conclude in more satisfaction than the Animal you wot of?
A57489And now( Madam) why was that a cruel Question, When will you come to Wales?
A57489And what is it that Orinda would not do or suffer, to obtain that sweet and desired Converse, she now begs of you?
A57489And what must be the thoughts of that great Man?
A57489But farther, whom do I succeed in the Place which you are pleas''d to afford me here?
A57489But why wou''d you feel all the Heat, yet want the Comforter Light?
A57489But why''s the Hair cut off?
A57489Can you dock any Years with it?
A57489Can your Age, your Face, your Eyes, and your Spirit bid defiance to that sweet Power?
A57489Consider how I love you; what would not renounce, or enterprize for you?
A57489For my part, I do n''t pity you at all; for why, the Devil should a Man run his Head against a Brick- wall, whe ● he may avoid it?
A57489For, where a Satyrick Poet paints, what other Man must not daub?
A57489Has not the Rose as good Accommodation as your Catherine- wheel Inn?
A57489I fancy, Madam, you now demand of me, where this strange Monster of Fidelity is to be found?
A57489I will appeal to the King and the Duke, If they had not done as much; nay, may Lord- Chancellor and the Archbishops both, when they were School- boys?
A57489If I might live, and be employ''d, can it be expected that I should serve a Government that seeks such detestable Ways of establishing itself?
A57489Is it a Pleasure to see all that I love in the World sold and destroy''d?
A57489Or are you the Reverse of Sampson, the stronger for shaving?
A57489Or what Man that has his Interest before his Eyes wou''d tell this dangerous Truth, That Priests of all Religions are the same?
A57489Shall I renounce all my old Principles, learn the vile Court- arts, and make my Peace by bribing some of them?
A57489Shall their Corruption and Vice be my Safety?
A57489What Harm have I, and a Thousand more of your Adorers done you, that you should so terribly revenge the supposed Infidelity of another upon them?
A57489What can be the reason then, which in my behalf has so happily influenc''d you upon this occasion?
A57489Who can think, that they, who imprison them, would employ me, or suffer me to live, when they are put to death?
A57489Who the Eyes that Swim in Love, Or the Lips that suck in Kisses?
A57489Who the Limbs that round him move, And constrain him to the Blisses?
A57489You know, Madam, there is nothing so various as Vulgar Opinion, nothing so untrue to itself: Who shall then please, since none can fix it?
A57489You''ll ask me, perhaps, why I chose this Party?
A57489or who, with Petronius Arbiter, would tell the Lawyers, Quid faciunt Leges ubi sola pecunia regnat?
A57489said you; Do you call that Guilt?
A57489who the Charms can speak, Who the thousand ways of toying, When she does the Lover make All a God in her enjoying?
A29768Alass, says she, if the bare Name of Dony gives you so much Affliction, what might we not fear from you, should we talk to you of your Dear Husband?
A29768And do you think, Sir, she''ll hate it to the end of the Chapter?
A29768And the Cure of a Clap at Padua?
A29768And whether the Name and Thing be not as disagreeable as Harp and Harrow?
A29768And yet it depends upon those that serve it: How Little it is?
A29768Apes at Tunis?
A29768But how would you have a Woman quit Scores with a Man, who has publish''d disadvantageous Stories of her?
A29768Ca n''t the Folks in this Country read it?
A29768Cutting a Throat at Naples?
A29768Do n''t you know, that Man was made for Business, and not to sit amusing himself like an Owl in an Ivy- Bush?

A29768How I pitty a Patient of good Sence that falls into their Hands?
A29768How then shall I order my Discourse?
A29768How would you have a poor Individuum Vagum live?
A29768I ask''d a Lady of the same Character t''other Day, how it came to pass that her Exhortations were half Godliness, and half Slander?
A29768I have a pressing Occasion for some Seeds of Sedition, Iacobite Rue, and Whig Herb of Grace, Can''st furnish me?
A29768I saw the Lady that solicits against me, and Lord what a Charming Creature she is?
A29768I suppose, reply''d I to the Indian, since the Peace he has Pawn''d his Sword to buy him Food; and for his being Naked, who regards it?
A29768If a Man had been so bold as to ask him when, and where?
A29768In the Name of Mischief what Country will first present it self to my Imagination?
A29768Is his Breath Contagious, or has he a Plague- Sore running upon him?
A29768Is it not a very Sorrowful Condition to be obliged to Counterfeit a perpetual Sorrow?
A29768Is it possible for a Woman to love any thing after she has lost her Husband?
A29768Is it true then that there is such an Embargo laid upon Invention, that no Man can produce any thing that is perfectly New, and intirely his own?
A29768Is there any hope of her being Cast away, says the Adventurer, for I have Insured more by a Thousand Pounds, than I have in her?
A29768LET''S enter into this Brave Country, and see —: But what is there to be seen here?
A29768Lord, what a difference there is?
A29768Money we have none, and without it there is no Living: Should we stay till it were brought, or come alone?
A29768Must she serve him in the same kind?
A29768Must you likewise Idolize the Rich, who will never do you a Farthings- worth of Kindness?
A29768My Spark push''d his Remonstrance further: Are not you ashamed, continued he, to Print Amusements?
A29768Now say I to my Indian, Is not all this Hodge- Podge a Pleasant Confusion, and a Perfect Amusement?
A29768Observe what a Modest Air she has?
A29768Pish, a Soldier Naked, is that such a Wonder?
A29768Pray tell me, Sir, says he, is this Portrait of them after Nature?
A29768Religion at Rome?
A29768See that Lady says he, was ever any thing so black as her Eye, and so clear as her Forehead?
A29768Stand ap there, you Blind Dog, Says a Carman, Will you have the Cart squeeze your Guts out?
A29768Suppose a Man falls from the Main- Yard, and lies all Bruised upon the Deck; Pray what is the First Intention in that Case?
A29768Tell us why should not Reason come as soon as Beauty, since one was made to defend the other?
A29768The Ambitious Rail at the Sluggards as a Company of Idle Fellows that take up a room in the World, and do nothing?
A29768The Publick is served by the greatest Noblemen: What Grandeur is there?
A29768Want you Old Cloaks, Plain Shooes, or Formal Gravity?

A29768What News from Scandaroon and Aleppo?
A29768What News of such a Ship?
A29768What Price bears Currants at Zant?
A29768What a Cursed Barbarity was this?
A29768What a Fantastical Jargon does this Heap of Contrarieties amount to?
A29768What a Tyranny is this in the Men, to monopolize Infidelity to themselves?
A29768What an excess of Barbarity crys our Man of Honour, is this?
A29768What can not you be content, says our Indian, can not you be content to Idolize Riches that are useful to you?
A29768What is it then to be Marry''d?
A29768What mean you by the Word?
A29768What need all this Toyl and Clutter about Original Authors and Translators?
A29768What signifies a Soldier in Time of Peace?

A29768What''s this Bottom?
A29768Where then shall we begin?
A29768Wherefore say I to my self, Do they shun him thus?
A29768Whores at Venice?
A29768Why then should you, whose Virtues equal your Fortune, conceal the Meanness of your Original, which raises the Lustre of your Merit?
A29768Why, says he, do n''t they put them into the Post- Boy?
A29768Why, says my Indian, is that a Soldier?
A29768With what Hurry and Swiftness is the Circulation of London perform''d?
A29768Would you buy any Naked Truth, or Light in a Dark- Lanthorn?
A29768Would you buy the Common Hunt, the Common Cryers, the Bridge- Master''s, or the Keeper of Newgate''s Places?
A29768Would you lay out your Indian Gold for a New Plantation?
A29779An Ode in Horace, Mr. Eugenius, that has any thing to do with Nunneries?
A29779And is not this a down right Calumny Mr. Eugenius?
A29779And is the World then so wickedly disposed as to question the sincerity of my Conversion?
A29779And was''t thou so little Bays?
A29779And what of all that Mr. Crites?
A29779And what of all that, Sir?
A29779Any more of''em?
A29779Aut Quae machina belli?
A29779Baron Tell- clock of the Night prithee how goes the time?
A29779But can you guess either of you which of all this jolly company of objections I intend to begin the assault with?
A29779But have you any thing else behind?
A29779But how can a man believe thee?
A29779But prithee Mr. Bays setting that business aside, let us know what you have to say to Ajax?
A29779But prithee tell me, dear Mr. Crites( for we have hitherto talked nothing to the purpose) what is your Opinion of the life of St. Xavier?
A29779But prithee why so severe always upon the Priesthood, Mr. Bays?
A29779But to be serious with you, Mr. Bays, where is this infallibility of your Church to be found at last?
A29779But what advantage has he done his cause by producing this Text?
A29779But what say you Gentlemen to the Life of St. Xavier which I Translated the last year out of Pere Bouhours?
A29779But why, Mr. Bays, should you think the worse of the Reformation for its want of Miracles?
A29779Cou''d not a poor Taper or so burn before his Image, but the very droppings of it must immediately cure all manner of Infirmities?
A29779Cou''d not he dye after the usual rate of mankind, but an Old Image at his Father''s Castle must out of pure pitty drip at the very same moment?
A29779Cou''d not the honest Father drop his Crucifix in the Sea, but a Crab must be presently employ''d to bring it ashore?
A29779Did you not?
A29779Do you think none of our Irish Refugees ever discourse of the Rebellion of 41. over their Tea, and Coffee?
A29779Do you think we have no Frenchmen about the Town that lost a Grandfather, or a Relation at the Paris Massacre?
A29779Good Life be now my task; my doubts are done, What more cou''d fright my faith, than three in one?
A29779How got he in?
A29779How now, Mr. Bays, what Gentleman have you brought into the Room?
A29779How, Mr. Bays, have you so soon forgot your Philosopher Socrates?
A29779How, Mr. Crites, do you attack me in the rear with a But, and a Notwithstanding too?
A29779I''le swear, Mr. Bays, thou art the pleasantest fellow in the Universe, I cou''d dye with laughing at these conceits; but have you any more of''em?
A29779Is it the same thing then to pretend, and to have?
A29779Must, Mr Eugenius?
A29779No I gad, Sir, I thank you heartily; I am not such a Bat neither as you take me for: What not understand the Fable without the Application?
A29779Not you I''faith?
A29779Now how do you think I ridicul''d em?
A29779Now what relief is there to be had in this critical affair, how shall the differences be made up between you?
A29779Or did the Christian Church require as long a time to arrive to the height of Spiritual perfection, as it had to ascend to its temporal greatness?
A29779Or how shall a man be satisfied which Party is in the right, and which in the wrong?
A29779Part with''em, Mr. Crites?
A29779Part with''em, Mr. Crites?
A29779Pious advice do you call it?
A29779Quae religio?
A29779Quid ve petunt?
A29779Quo molem hanc immanis equi Statuere?
A29779Shall he, Mr. Crites?
A29779Si secundum Carnem Vixeritis moriemini?
A29779So Sir, I find I am very much beholding to you; and have you any more of these Complements still behind?
A29779So now Mr. Bays, what Complements have you in store for this honest friend of yours?
A29779The Devil take your Tooth- drrwer for me, what have I to do with him?
A29779The Fable of the Bat and the Birds?
A29779The Panther''s Claws wouldst thou avoid Dissenter?
A29779Think you, this proffer''d liberty is free From Tricks, and Snares, and Papal Treachery?
A29779Think you,''t was meant according to the Letter?
A29779This is the summ and substance of the Book, is it not, Mr. Bays?
A29779Troth Mr Bays the sinful world, as you call it, is very much divided about the point, and who can help it?
A29779Very true Sir, but what have you to say to the Notwithstanding?
A29779Was it to get a pretty round sum of money, or so, from your friend T- ns- n?
A29779Was your Brother Hopkins so great an Eye- sore to you?
A29779Well Sir, this is but one Doctors judgment however; but what say you Mr. Crites?
A29779Well, Sir, have you made an an end of your rambling speech at last?
A29779Were their Appetites more ungovernable in the ten first Centuries, or did the succeeding Ages light upon more effectual restringents to subdue''em?
A29779What do you give the Must to a man of my Character and Gravity?
A29779What have they merited to pull down your indignation?
A29779What is his Name, and Business?
A29779What must give you a Reason, dear Mr. Eugenius?
A29779What need I say more?
A29779What think you Sir of the Iure Matris Impera Filio?
A29779What where he Lodges?
A29779What you are going to kick down the Milk you have given?
A29779Who could expect to see the difference made up between the Observator, and the late Occurrencer?
A29779Why did you never hear that I have been courted to be Secretary to the Congregation de propaganda Fide at Rome?
A29779Why do you father any such reproachful things on the writers of our Communion?
A29779Why then little Bays, I beg your pardon; however to the best of my knowledge I never heard this Gentleman comment t''il appellez vous?
A29779Why what wou''d you do with him, Mr. Bays?
A29779Why, surely the Devil''s in thee, Mr. Eugenius, wilt thou never have done?
A29779Why, what''s all this to the purpose?
A29779Why, who would have taken thee for such a Politician, Mr. Bays?
A29779Will you stay now, and hear the Application of the Fable?
A29779You dull Dissenters, what vain folly blinds Your senses thus, and captivates your minds?
A29779quis autor?
A29779shall he Sir?
A29779thus to desert thy Friends, And joyn the Common Foe for base ungen''rous ends, What punishment can suit so black a Crime?
A29779wou''d you draw upon him, and whip him decently through the Lungs?
A29779— Negavi Mille tibi nummes, millia quinque dabo?
A29779— Pray Gentlemen did you ever hear of a certain Noble Grecian call''d Ajax?
A29779— What upon thy Marrow- bones?
A65151''T is true, Madam, you have lost a Husband, but what of that?
A65151A Critick, did I say?
A65151A strange thing this?
A65151ANd is it true Sir, that you have lost your Understanding?
A65151After the Knowledge which I have bad of you, how can I form such an Image of you, as you are willing to give me?
A65151Almost all the Faults which he has discover''d are truly there; Yet who will read Mr. Rym —, or not read Shakespear?
A65151And do you think this Knowledge of it will excuse the Folly?
A65151And dost not thou think that they too have reason to expect the very same thing?
A65151And how happy is the Man who has a Friend so accomplish''d, that Errour in him is Virtue?
A65151And what of him?
A65151But can any thing in the World be so absurd as to surfeit our selves with Cordials when we have not the least Indisposition?
A65151But do you apprehend the Reason?
A65151But if it deceives us in all things abroad, what Disorders and Confusion does it raise at home?
A65151But since your very Suspicion is obliging, what influence must your Kindness have on our Souls?
A65151But tell me truly, Cousin, could you think that I should prove so easie a Creature as to believe all that you have said of me?
A65151But what would you have us do?
A65151But what?
A65151But why should I trouble you with these things, who know them so much better than my self?
A65151But, for God''s sake, what do you mean when you say a Quibble diverts you?
A65151Cou''d he think I cou''d ever prove such a supple Slave, as to sit up all Night to pore over a dull Statute- book?
A65151Dear Madam, CAN you be angry still with your poor Penitent?
A65151Dear Madam, MAy I presume to beg Pardon for the Fault I committed?
A65151Did he chuse to make me his Spouse only to deafen me with impertinent Stories of Executions, Answers, Ejectments, and impertinent Decrees?
A65151For how ridiculous would it be to Tax a Man for having Poetry and Wit, when they are almost always signs, that he has not a Farthing to pay?
A65151For why does he disguise himself?
A65151From whence, and whither am I fallen?
A65151Have I left all the World for you, and could you resolve to leave the World without me; Nay, without so much as giving me the least Notice of it?
A65151How can I Fancy you to be that little Creature you say you are?
A65151How could I comprehend that Heaven could place such mighty things in so small a space?
A65151How many Men have you made guilty of Perjury, and made them forsake their former Vows, to sacrifice''em to you?
A65151How many noble Engines has it invented?
A65151How often has my Reason been going upon it?
A65151How then could they think that People would be contented to be tax''d for their Nick- names?
A65151How will they be over- power''d then, when the whole Posse is got to Rome?
A65151I know not what this Author can mean by this: For, whom does he pretend to perswade by this fine Assertion?
A65151In fine, We arrived at Paris; and what I am now going to relate, is indeed prodigious: Cou''d you imagine it, my Lord?
A65151In that Retirement what should I not enjoy?
A65151Is any thing more common, than to have a pretended Comedy, stuff''d with such Grotesque Figures, and Farce- Fools?
A65151Johnson, and Shakespear wo nt go down with''em, without these Baubles to recommend''em, and nothing but Farce and Grimaces will go down?
A65151Madam, DId you ever see an Almanack in your Life?
A65151May I presume to beg pardon for a Fault which I can never forgive my self?
A65151On the other side, how absurd would it be to tax him for a bare Want of those Qualities?
A65151Or, why does he repose the last Confidence in Mosca?
A65151Rule may be said to be a Play; what Symmetry of Parts is known to be to a Face?
A65151Show at least some Tenderness to the Man, who never was conquer''d by any Beauty but yours?
A65151Since he has not Assets enough, as far as I can perceive, to discharge the Debt of Matrimony, why should he marry, I wonder, to inslame his Reckoning?
A65151Sometimes, one shall meet with those, who perhaps, innocently enough, but at the same time impertiently, will ask the Question, Why are you not merry?
A65151That this should be spoken at Will''s?
A65151The People gave me some little Applause before; but to whom, when they are in Humour, will they not give it?
A65151Then instead of answering, could I ask such one, Why are you not handsome?
A65151These Metaphors perhaps may seem too daring for Prose; but why may I not be indulg''d to speak in the Poetical Language to a Poet?
A65151To plague them, for what?
A65151To purchase that Pardon, what would I not endure?
A65151WAs there ever so extraordinary a Passion, as that which I have for you?
A65151What Invention of mine would there be in this?
A65151What can not a Day produce?
A65151What is it that he has taken so mortally ill of me?
A65151What makes it look worse in the Parsons than the Poets?
A65151What signifies it tho''she be barren, since her Acres are fruitful?
A65151What tho''she has lost all the Rofes in her Cheeks, she has enough in her Gardens?
A65151When my Friend found the Bargain was now as good as struck, he turn''d about to me; And what do you think now of my Skill in these Affairs?
A65151Where is the White and the Red, and where are the fine Dresses and Compliments that can be put into the Ballance with two compleat Years?
A65151Who knows but that yet I may please you, if you encourage me to mend my Fault?
A65151Who said a Word against them?
A65151Why are you not gay, pleasant, and cheerful?
A65151Why do not we rather hazard the other Extremity, than this which our Misfortune reduces us to?
A65151Why do you persecute me with your Sonnets, and sing under my Windows?
A65151Why does he cause it to be given out that he''s dead?
A65151Why have you given Credit to my Enemies, before you have heard me?
A65151Why have you not black Eyes, and a better Complexion?
A65151Why must you employ your Hands to shew the Passion of your Heart?
A65151Why shou''d Love, that tramples over all Distinctions of Rank and Quality, shew himself a Dastard only in respect to me?
A65151Why then do you give your self and me the unnecessary trouble of so many Serenades?
A65151Will you not pity one that dies every Moment for you?
A65151Yet at the same time you refuse to see me, you refuse to receive my Letters: And must I be condemn''d Unheard?
A65151You accuse me, they say, of some extraordinary Crime: A Crime against whom?
A65151You are in Love with my Husband, and''t is my unhappy Destiny,( But who can resist the God who commands all the rest?)
A65151You can not have the ill Nature, sure?
A65151You have made every thing else indifferent: And can I resolve never to see you more?
A65151You told me in your last, that you were no more Master of your self: Then how should I help Rejoycing at the Restoration of your Liberty?
A65151You, who are cry''d up for so great a Wit, tell me, without Envy, could you ever have thought upon that?
A65151and to whom, when they are Froward will they not refuse it?
A65151have not Thousands done so before you?
A65151or who would not see Virgil thorough me, only the same Trick play''d over again by a bungling Juggler?
A65151the Man that were able to make such a Present, to certain Ladies that shall be nameless, what Favours might he not expect from their Hand?
A65151— is no more?
A38569''T is English Cloth I suppose?
A38569''T is strange, but what was the reason?
A38569A Covent- garden Lady say you; pray what may her Name be?
A38569And are the others then such mighty Benefactors to the Publick?
A38569And are these the blessed Ingredients out of which Quality is Compounded?
A38569And are you not beloved by them?
A38569And did he find no harm, no inconvenience by it?
A38569And did it never come to downright Blows between you?
A38569And did not that vex the very Heart of you?
A38569And do you call this Curing it?
A38569And do your Husband and you live in perfect Amity?
A38569And don''t you think we were in a blessed taking then?
A38569And how come they by their Titles?
A38569And how is he respected by them?
A38569And let her Husband take it as he pleases, what a plague care I?
A38569And was not that enough in conscience for any reasonable Man?
A38569And were you not afraid that he''d be as good as his word?
A38569And what had they set before them to eat?
A38569And what in the Name of Lucifer was the reason that her Parents Married her to this walking Hospital?
A38569And when you find him in such a pickle, do n''t you scold at him to some purpose?
A38569And whither do you intend to steer your Course when you leave me?
A38569As how I pray?
A38569As how I pray?
A38569As how I pray?
A38569As how I wonder?
A38569But after all it wou''d be the gentler way to geld, or part them asunder: Ga. And what wou''d you have done to the Women, pray?
A38569But did none of the Family take pitty of your sad Condition?
A38569But did not this Physician put the Doctor upon you, as the saying is?
A38569But do you believe I shall succeed if I try?
A38569But do you think''t is possible for me to work a Miracle, and to a her the Nature of this insufferable Brute?
A38569But how I wonder came it about, that you ran the risque of starving in a City so Rich, and provided with every thing?
A38569But how came you a God''s Name to learn the Language so soon?
A38569But how comes your Man of Quality a Gods Name to have more Right to do this than your common ordinary Scoundrel?
A38569But how cou''d the Master of the House endure all this Filth and Nastiness?
A38569But how cou''d you humour a Man that is never at Home, but perpetually Sotting at the Tavern and Drunk?
A38569But how did the Servants fare after all?
A38569But how does your Husband bear it all this while?
A38569But how few are they that will honestly restore a thing committed to their Charge?
A38569But is this all you took notice of?
A38569But on Fish days what course did ye take I wonder to keep your self alive?
A38569But perhaps these were poor Dogs, and not able to pay you?
A38569But suppose a Tradesman should Greet his Creditor in this blunt manner; My Lord, or Sir John, why do you tell me these Lies?
A38569But tell me, Xantippe, did he never threaten to beat you after this?
A38569But then how many Thousands do we see in the World, who had rather have the name of learned and pious Men, than take pains to be really so?
A38569But to dismiss this point of Heraldry, pray what Iointure will this mighty Blusterer settle upon his Spouse?
A38569But was he really sick?
A38569But was it a Boy or a Girl?
A38569But what Woman pray now ever consulted her Ears in the Choice of a Husband?
A38569But what was this to Monsieur le Maigre?
A38569But what will you say now if both Tonsor and Gentleman agree to shut their Mouths?
A38569But why then shou''d you chuse to pass so many Months with him of all the Men in the World, when you knew his Character before hand?
A38569But why( dear Friend of mine) shou''d the bare mention of this set thee a weeping?
A38569But you had something else I suppose?
A38569By the by, let me ask you what sort of a Character do your Husband''s Companions give him?
A38569By what pretence I wonder?
A38569Ca n''t you tell say you?
A38569Do you think this Account he gave of himself was true?
A38569Does not he sufficiently declare the intentions of his Heart, with a murrain to him?
A38569Enough?
A38569Finding not the least motion towards Dinner, and my Guts very mutinous, hark you Friend, cry''d I, will you starve us here?
A38569From whence do you ask?
A38569From whom should a virtuous Wife receive any Presents, but from her Husband?
A38569G. What will you do then with Wales and Cumberland, and that most delicious Country beyond the Tweed, where they wash their Linnen but twice a Year?
A38569Ga. And do the Magistrates take no notice of this neither?
A38569Ga. And do you call that a legal Marriage which is built upon such horrid Villany and Treachery?
A38569Ga. How shall a Man behave himself in private Conversation?
A38569Ga. How should a Physician cure a Mad man, if he himself has a spice of the same Distemper?
A38569Ga. Well, and don''t you know his Daughter Katy too?
A38569Ga. Why shou''d I spend more time in describing this pretty young Creature, since I find you know her?
A38569Ga. Why wou''d you call that Physician a Tyrant that lopps off a Finger or two, or it may be burns part of the Body, to save the whole?
A38569Ga. Why?
A38569Ga. You know Squire Freeman of the Grange, do n''t you?
A38569Ga.''T is as you say, and do you know whom she is Married to?
A38569How I pitty the unfortunate Creature?
A38569How can that be, since you tell me he has spent all, and burnt out his Candle to the last inch?
A38569How cou''d that be I wonder?
A38569How did the rest employ themselves all this while, I pray?
A38569How long ago?
A38569How many Ills do you think are occasioned by nasty Wines of the Vintners dashing and brewing?
A38569How many were there of you that sat down to Table?
A38569How so I beseech you?
A38569I desire once more to know how they were served?
A38569I hope tho you''ll allow better Quarter to Misses of Quality?
A38569If a Nobleman has a mind to have a fine Pack of Hounds, do ye think he''d bring a mangy scoundril Cur to a well- bred Bitch?
A38569If they were resolved to use her so ill, why a God''s Name did they not tye her Neck and Heels in a Sack and so fling her into the Thames?
A38569In the last place I desire to be informed whether any of your Relations wish you Ill?
A38569In what part of the World I wonder?
A38569Is he Famous for any good Qualities?
A38569Know him?
A38569More mysterious still; and how cou''d that be?
A38569Nothing can be more stupid than this Fool- hardiness, more unreasonable than this Complaisance?
A38569Now for Paris dear Rogue, how goe Squares there?
A38569Now pray tell me how you wou''d dispose of him?
A38569Now tell me, was not this a considerable Profit?
A38569Now, Peter, put your Hand to your Heart and tell me fairly, Had you seen this lamentable sight, cou''d you have forbore Weeping?
A38569Oh in earnest, replied he, well then, continued I, what wou''d you have me do?
A38569Pardon my Curiosity, but was this your daily Fare?
A38569Pe ▪ What mighty work is carrying on there, I beseech ye?
A38569Perhaps worse than the Disease, but what was it?
A38569Pray in what respect?
A38569Pray then oblige me so far as to tell me by what Arts you made your Husband tractable?
A38569Prethee what might be the occasion of it?
A38569Prithee what Coat of Arms does the Brute give?
A38569Prithee what was it?
A38569Right, but pray will you hear the Moral of it?
A38569She told him she had; then he desired to know for what Reason she had sent all that rich Furniture thither?
A38569Suppose now you had Circe''s magical Secret, and cou''d turn your Husband from a Man into a Bear or a Hog; wou''d you do it?
A38569Take pitty, say you?
A38569That Rich old Fellow that has purchased so many Lordships, and had the fleecing of so many young Spendthrifts in his time?
A38569That course indeed will prevent Mistakes in numbering, but how will you provide against squabbling?
A38569That such a demure Sparrow- mouth''d Devil shou''d take up a Stone in her Ear so soon?
A38569The Devil a Barrel the better Herring; but how did the Servants bear this abominable Vsage?
A38569Then prethee what sort of a Wedding is it thou talk''st of?
A38569Thus too, if an Heiress happens to bestow herself upon a Parson, how many Iests and Proverbs does the Neighbourhood pelt her with?
A38569To come now to the Boxes, the Park, and public Entertainments, Good Lord, what a horrid Disorder and Confusion is there to be seen?
A38569WHence comes our Friend Gabriel I wonder, with so grave, so mortified a Phyz?
A38569Well but had you never any Flesh or Fish to keep your Stomachs in play?
A38569Well but old Friend of mine, how cou''d your Stomach brook to be post- poned so?
A38569Well then, and are you not convinced that Mankind has a greater regard to the name than to the thing?
A38569Well then, whence comes this sadness, this Cloud upon your Forehead?
A38569Well, and how does he relish this Treatment?
A38569Well, and what of that?
A38569Well, and what sort of a Voyage had you of it, old Friend?
A38569Well, but did old Pinch- gut devour all his Gray- pease by himself?
A38569Well, but how ended this Affair?
A38569Well, but how much more prudently did this Gentlewoman carry her self?
A38569Well, but now there was no danger of starving, which is a blessing you know?
A38569Well, but what Right, what Law have they to countenance this?
A38569Well, but what sort of Liquor did the old Huncks drink all this while?
A38569Well, but where can we furnish our selves with so necessary an Utensil as this Cestos was?
A38569Well, but you wo n''t deny these to be Men, will you?
A38569Well, my dear Xantippe, will you give me leave to talk a little freely to you?
A38569Well?
A38569What Advice wou''d you give her now?
A38569What Law say you?
A38569What Persons of Quality had you to Grace the Nuptials?
A38569What a Blessing it is to be a Philosopher?
A38569What a wretched Wealth was here?
A38569What came after?
A38569What can the meaning of that be?
A38569What did I say a Widow?
A38569What difference is there between a Fellow that breaks open your House, that Rifles your Chests, and one that will for swear a Pledge?
A38569What do you begin to jeer me already?
A38569What do you mean?
A38569What do you think wou''d become of me, if after such scurvy Dinners as we have here, I shou''d go Supperless to Bed?
A38569What makes you tell such an Old fashion''d Fable as this?
A38569What may those be?
A38569What signifies it a Farthing how the World miscalls them, so long as they are Registred for Thieves in the Annals of Heaven?
A38569What sort of Liquor is that prithee, for I never heard of it before?
A38569What the plague made them Marry so tender a Creature to such a boisterous young Whoreson?
A38569What was it then that recommended him to their Choice?
A38569What will you say to those industrious Gentlewomen, that get their Living by the sweat of their Brows?
A38569What''s this I hear?
A38569What''s this I hear?
A38569What, is your House until''d already, and is it come to a Rupture between you?
A38569What?
A38569When Death puts an end to the Parson''s Life, what becomes of the Parson''s Wife?
A38569Where do you intend to place the Widows?
A38569Who questions it?
A38569Why do ye ask me such a Question, when you see the very Recital of this Story has drawn Tears from me?
A38569Why must I look upon him to be my Husband, who uses me worse than a Kitchin- wench?
A38569Why prithee now is not this down- right bare- faced impudent Lying?
A38569Why so?
A38569Why then did you tell me it kept there three whole Months?
A38569Why, is it not enough that our Names tell the World we are so?
A38569Why, what the Plague was that to you, or any one else?
A38569Why, what was his Method?
A38569Why, what wou''d you have a Woman do?
A38569Why, what wou''d you have me do?
A38569Why, will barely discoursing beget Children?
A38569Why?
A38569Why?
A38569Why?
A38569Why?
A38569Wou''d you rather have your Husband a Hog than a Man?
A38569You must expect that after a War;''t is impossible to help it, but dear Companion of mine how stand Affairs in France?
A38569but what place do you design for the Wives of Priests and Monks?
A38569crys an other, what Death is bad enough for the Raskal that seduced her?
A38569from Burgess''s Meeting, or a Reprobation- Lecture at Pinners hall?
A38569interrupted again?
A38569it feels as soft as Silk, and the Colour is the most bewitching that can be: But who gave you this fine Present I wonder?
A38569says he, what means this putting Finger in Eye, and whimpering like a Child thus?
A38569that was wonderful pretty, and were there then so many fine Lords and Ladies to throw the Stocking?
A38569that your Landlord Monsieur le Maigre shou''d be such a sordid Wretch amidst so prodigious a Wealth?
A38569was the Ready all gone, and your Pockets quite founder''d?
A38569what an alteration is here?
A38569wou''d you have had us struck Sail to them?
A38569you ask where I am a going, Why?
A38569— But if I may be so bold as to ask you one Question, now you have scaped this enchanted Country, where are you steering your Course?
A59619A man needs but very little penetration, and extent of mind to make so obvious a discovery?
A59619After having thus established an Order between the evils of Nature, Is it not likewise possible to establish one between the evils of Opinion?
A59619After this manner, who eats really the Substance of this same Body?
A59619And can Death prejudice what is no more?
A59619And do you find that our Pontifical Habits are very different from those under the Jewish Oeconomy?
A59619And do you then complain, you that have only an ordinary Genius, a common Merit, or an indifferent Beauty, do you complain that you must dy?
A59619And has not our Mind its unsteadiness from the same disturbance?
A59619And have we not as much need of a remedy against the torment of Marriage, as we supposed we had against that of the Devils?
A59619And if it is more shameful to appear susceptible of Love, than capable of ingratitude?
A59619And if they are so unmindful of us, why should we be reduced to live only for them?
A59619And if they suffer the controul of some Superior Power, who can sway these fearful Machines but a supream Hand?
A59619And in truth what advantage is it to know what is Good, if we are too feeble to put it in practice?
A59619And indeed how can you expect a Man should live happy when he perpetually fears death?
A59619And is not a Miracle as necessary to your Opinion, as ours?
A59619And must all the parts be expos''d to thy Eyes to give thee the least Insight?
A59619And since we must learn to dye without repugnance, should we not learn to see others dye without despair?
A59619And that exquisite proportion that we may observe in it, could it ever proceed but from an eternal Wisdom?
A59619And this Acknowledgment, with which you were smitten so much heretofore, does it not oblige you to some manner of Return?
A59619And what does any one know what may happen from this Zeal?
A59619And what is this, but to require a disposition of Heart as well towards God as Man?
A59619And who has known them better than me?
A59619And who is he that has been able, hitherto, to stop the mouth of Envy?
A59619And would not your Masters employ all their Power to hinder you from depriving them of your presence?
A59619And you Mr. B. will you renounce the natural Beauty of the Mind, to render your self a slave to troublesome Precepts, and borrow''d Knowledge?
A59619And, what do I see my Father?
A59619Are not other people of less value to us, than our selves?
A59619Are not our Senses often interupted in their functions by the disorder of our Organs?
A59619Art thou hungry?
A59619Art thou thirsty?
A59619Ask you your self, Is there any Method more confus''d, than that of this Work?
A59619At present I will make bold to add; That instead of asking your self, Would Virgil have writ after this manner?
A59619Besides, Where''s the advantage of constraining your self?
A59619But I wou''d fain know what Art and Science in the World has the power to exclude good Sense?
A59619But even among those that intend strict Justice, how many are misguided by their tempers to reward or punish?
A59619But how unluckily did I succeed in my design?
A59619But if it is not possible for us to live without Grief, is it possible for us to have as much of it, and as long as we please?
A59619But in fine, is it decent to think no more of our friends, when they are interred?
A59619But to quit this Digression; If Authors of the most accomplisht exactness fall under these sort of Faults, what must Vulgar Authors do?
A59619But to what purpose?
A59619But what is this Opinion?
A59619But what occasion had you, Madam, to become a Sovereign?
A59619But what offence has Nature done them, that they should thus throw themselves into the party of her Adversary?
A59619But what, if she makes us die without our own consent, can we take it amiss that she destroys others without our permission?
A59619But what, must there be no lamenting for the death of our friends?
A59619But who can regulate what proceeds from so disorderly a Cause?
A59619But why should I seek Reasons to encourage your affliction?
A59619But, My Lord, when they meet in the same Person, What Greatness do they not show, what Justice, what Charms, and what Reason?
A59619But, replyed the Wife, doth this knowledge make us e''re the less unhappy?
A59619Can Nothing do an injury to what is not?
A59619Can a Work be said to be perfect, when''t is only compos''d of choice words?
A59619Can it be possible, said I to my self, that the Motions of the Spheres, so just and regular, should not have an Intelligent Being for their Author?
A59619Can one deceive the sense of a Man Tormented with the Cholick?
A59619Can one even propose to render him attentive to such a Discourse?
A59619Can that be done in the evils of Nature?
A59619Can you imagine any person to be more Virtuous?
A59619Did Malherb sing his excellent Odes in such a tone?
A59619Did he by those means reform the Abuses of the Age?
A59619Did he not seem to believe that he singly was obliged to be Wise?
A59619Did not Dioclesian quit the Empire, and Sylla the Dictatorial power?
A59619Do n''t we diminish the idea of their misfortunes in order to diminish their Grief?
A59619Do n''t you know that I am also a Warrior?
A59619Do n''t you observe, that Heaven has not design''d to unite your destinies?
A59619Do not you know, Sir, that God took the pains himself, to ordain even the Fringe of the Habit of the High Priest?
A59619Do ordinary Friends contributed towards our Ransom?
A59619Do they undertake great journeys for our Deliverance?
A59619Do you imagine that they parted out of this World with so much Indifference?
A59619Do you think it is she that excites us to Pleasures?
A59619Do''s he not paint out a very wretched Person when he says?
A59619Do''s not your Beauty make you reign wherever you go?
A59619Does it proceed from the difference in Opinion about the Doctrine of Grace?
A59619Every thing that is made for the pleasure of sight, Doth it not belong to me, so long as it is exposed before mine?
A59619Father Canaye finding himself without an Horse, desir''d one to carry him to the Camp: And what Horse will you have, Father?
A59619For empty shadows why should Tears be shed?
A59619For if one should ask him, Who is it that produced this Fear?
A59619For to what other cause can you assign their illustrious Actions?
A59619For what sweets are there in the World which are not mixt with bitter?
A59619From whence then proceeds this extraordinary difference?
A59619Have not we seen that great and formidable King of Sweden despise the acclamations of the People?
A59619He that has been always us''d to Submission and Obedience, shall not he raise his desires to the glory of Command?
A59619How do you know but it will give you even more?
A59619How is it, Madam, that one comforts the Afflicted?
A59619How many Undertakings which are not proper to all sorts of People?
A59619How should it abandon you to an indisposition of Body?
A59619How should it give you over to Servitude?
A59619How then can these Soveraigns that make this present War dispence with these Obligations, or Punishments?
A59619How then can you pretend we are obliged to fall from pleasure into pain, just as we fall from enjoyment into privation?
A59619I askt him what opinion he had of Monsieur d''Hocquincourt?
A59619I leave it to you to judge, whether it is better to be accused of a Vice, or of a Passion?
A59619I would — Oh how many I would?
A59619If these wonderful Globes know and govern themselves, are they not the Gods who command the World as they please?
A59619If we are reduced to Poverty, who shares his Fortune with us, but those dear persons?
A59619If we become Slaves, by whom are we redeemed, but by persons that are dear to us?
A59619If we happen to be sick, by whom are we relieved but by Persons that are dear to us?
A59619In effect, chuse the firmest Soul upon Earth; can she digest without regret the knowledge of what we are, and of what we shall one day be?
A59619In effect, shew me the Man who has at anytime had merit and good fortune sufficient to acquire an esteem truly general?
A59619In effect, what Country is there which Hortensia has not seen?
A59619In fine, how should it reduce you to poverty?
A59619In the mean time, what can my design be here?
A59619In truth, this is Divine for them that have any tast of Heavenly Things: No Reason, what an extraordinary Grace, my Lord, has God bestow''d upon you?
A59619Infants have yet their Innocence, and why?
A59619Is grief so cruel, or your rage so blind, That to your self you must be thus unkind?
A59619Is it not always an Infinite Wisdom?
A59619Is it not certain that there is no medium between enjoyment and privation; but that there is one between pleasure and pain, which is indolence?
A59619Is it not true, that those who are comforted are in a state of Privation, as well as those who are Afflicted?
A59619Is it possible that ye should have Devils in reality?
A59619Is it possible to make him believe that his Gripings are but illusions?
A59619Is there any Design less ingenious?
A59619Is there any Imitation more low and servile than that of this Book?
A59619Must we to Grief this slavish homage pay, As sigh our best, our dearest Hours away?
A59619No, Madam, I know that the publick Voice has right to impose Names; But have not we also a right to interpret the names which it imposes?
A59619Now, now, quick Shootings all my Sinews tear, What Racks, what Torments can with this compare?
A59619Or to improve the pressures of our doom, Must we bewail the past, and fear the Ills to come?
A59619Or, if you please, Is it thus that Corneille, or Moliere drew to their Theatres, both the Court and the whole Kingdom?
A59619Shall we then give the Lie to Mankind, or shall we force it to change its Language?
A59619She loves you as much as ever any lov''d: Ought not her Love then to take place of Beauty?
A59619Tell me now freely, is it not a shame for Hecuba to see her Children more couragious than herself?
A59619Tell me now whether with these qualities I may presume to set up for your Lover, or whether I am still to continue your Friend?
A59619Tell me whether it looks well for her to shed so many Tears, when Astianax and Polyxena die without shedding any?
A59619Tell me whether you do n''t think these two Persons infinitely happy in comparison of this miserable Creature?
A59619Tell me, ye Gods, where I my steps must bend?
A59619That the joy of seeing God, would make up the essence of our Eternal felicity?
A59619That they drew dangerous Enemies upon their Heads, and did not at the same time think that what they did was either for their Profit or Pleasure?
A59619That they rejected the possession of Gold?
A59619The Expressions, could they ever be more imperfect?
A59619The Heavens, the Sun, the Stars, the Elements, have not they Beauties enough to satisfy the mind that contemplates them?
A59619The King has given me the Direction of the Hospital of his Army in Flanders: Is not this enough to be a Warrier?
A59619The Musick of Birds, is that ever wanting in our Groves?
A59619The day and the moment wherein I shall die, will it not resemble that which I spend to day?
A59619The difficulty of comprehending the Mistery, is it less great on your side?
A59619The divertisement of the Theatre, whither we see so many people flock dayly, Has it created any true delights in its most profest Followers?
A59619The extent of Plains, the course of Rivers, the Meadows, the Flowers, the Rivolets, have not they sufficient Charms to enchant the sight?
A59619The faithless Court, the pensive Change, What solid Pleasures can they give?
A59619The needy, shall not they establish their happiness in abundance, tho''they have been opprest with want?
A59619There is no such Divertisement in''t, Father: Do you know for what design I lov''d her?
A59619These ill, these unlawful Remedies do n''t they often turn to Poyson?
A59619This glorious Sun, continu''d I, which shines equally upon all Men, could it ever give us its light by chance?
A59619This weakness of mind has it not led abundance of People to those Extremities that are a disgrace and scandal to humane Nature?
A59619Those that are embarrass''d with a Crowd will they not with for the quiet of the Private?
A59619To conclude, where can you find me any extraordinary Man, who was not a Man of Letters, and exquisite knowledge?
A59619To give Wisdom leave to speak, but not to permit her to act?
A59619To what far distant Region shall I run The wild disorders of my Soul to shun?
A59619To what purpose is it to see a Precipice, if we suffer our selves to tumble down it?
A59619To whom do you talk of head- strong Spirits, says the Mareschal?
A59619What Condition can you propose more excellent, or more desirable than this?
A59619What Horse have they given you?
A59619What Judgment to reconcile''em as he do''s, and draw from''em Consequences so advantagious to the true Religion?
A59619What Misfortune was it that decry''d you amongst Men?
A59619What Mountains, what Forests, what Rivers had she not to pass?
A59619What Nation has seen her that has not at the same time admir''d her?
A59619What Place can give me refuge or relief?
A59619What Service then do you propose to your self by persevering in a Grief, which he is not obliged to you for?
A59619What a capacity of mind must he have in one Scheme to comprehend so great a variety of Events, so far disjoyn''d both in time and place?
A59619What advantage will you gain by losing your best days, for which he will make you no compensation?
A59619What am I good for nothing in the World, but to be the Confident of your Melancholy thoughts and studied sorrows?
A59619What an extraordinary Grace, my Lord, has Heaven bestow''d upon you?
A59619What are the cares of our Physitians, and our Chirurgions?
A59619What are they the better for all this?
A59619What can be greater?
A59619What can we desire more?
A59619What cou''d the greatest of her Enemies do more?
A59619What did she not suffer from the wind, the snow, and the rains?
A59619What good did it do Heraclitus to sigh and grieve?
A59619What is it, in your oppinion, that has prescribed to us the duty of preserving fidelity to the Dead, but the weakness and tyranny of the Living?
A59619What is not daily said about Affairs of State, when''t is the Prince only that knows the Mystery?
A59619What likelihood then is there that Opinion would engage us so far, if it was nothing but an undetermined Iudgment?
A59619What other courage but that of Hortensia would have undertaken so long, so difficult, and so dangerous a Voyage?
A59619What shall I say of the interest which so often divides Families?
A59619What shall we say of those Expressions used by the Prophets, who say that God will o''rewhelm us with a torrent of pleasure?
A59619What share can the Heart enjoy herein, but the interest of some pleasure?
A59619What then can be the meaning of living according to Nature?
A59619What will you advance by this Conduct?
A59619What would Acknowledgment and Friendship demand of you?
A59619What, says the Mareschal, would you have me love like a Sot?
A59619Whence comes, continu''d I, the great Animosities between the Iansenists and your Fathers?
A59619Where is Father Suarez''s Nag that you askt so earnestly for?
A59619Where is the Father who does not inspire the Zeal of his Party, as well as his Religion, into his Children?
A59619Which is easily justified by the example of Monsieur* Despreaux; For do we read any of the Ancients with greater satisfaction?
A59619Who can move these Huge Bodies but an unaccountable Force?
A59619Who can reconcile their various Motions but an Infinite Wisdom?
A59619Who is he that was ever powerful enough to suppress the calumnies of all his Enemies?
A59619Who is it that drew upon you the aversion of so many virtuous Persons that knew you not?
A59619Who will a poor despairing Queen befriend?
A59619Who would ever have believ''d that Father Canaye should ever have become a Soldier?
A59619Whose part do you take?
A59619Why do we sigh, or why complain?
A59619Why then, say you, are we told that it is becoming to be Afflicted; and why did the Romans appoint a time for Women to Mourn?
A59619Will not you maintain against him, That they are not evils, since they represent no Idea of pain?
A59619With these prospects, Is there any Man whose Reformation one ought to doubt of?
A59619Wou''d we incur so many Hazards for real Benefits?
A59619Would not he have been obliged to Answer, That it is the natural Idea which Men conceive of a Divinity?
A59619Would they encourage you to follow him?
A59619Would you not easily attract the veneration of your Masters?
A59619Would you now know whether Nero took pleasure in all these things, and whether he parted from the Banquet satisfied and content?
A59619You may demand of me here why Virtue opposes Pleasure, if Pleasure is the good of Nature?
A59619and can this Interest beget a truly perfect Friendship?
A59619and reject the Panegyricks of Orators?
A59619and what we have sometimes chose to extinguish our sorrow, has it not made it burn with greater Fury and Vehemence?
A59619and who obliges me to wish that your Grief may be free and violent, instead of being moderate and constrained?
A59619and why do n''t we rather follow the opinion of the wise?
A59619how ill did it answer their desires?
A59619if it will produce Crimes or Vertues?
A59619must we abstain from those things she has made us Masters of?
A59619to what purpose is all this troublesome industry?
A59619what Crimes have those fair Tresses done?
A59619whether it will proceed to Fury or Piety?
A62309''T is not your Envy that I fear, answer''d I, — What other Motive, return''d she, can there be to make me oppose your Felicity?
A62309Am I a stranger to you Signior Andrada, and don''t you know, that I am Brother to Don Sancho?
A62309And are your Horses, I said to him, retaken?
A62309And couldst thou serve a Lady according to the nicest Rules, said she?
A62309And did not you bring me hither on my Entreaty, where you have offered a Rudeness impious both to my Honour and Youth?
A62309And did you ever yet condemn a Person to be hang''d that deserv''d it more than your self?
A62309And do they practise those Duties which they pretend he neglects?
A62309And do you remember, cries Don Lewis, what happen''d to you to day at his House?
A62309And how came that about?
A62309And how can I be Faithful, if I love you?
A62309And how can you refuse to pardon a Crime, with which you can not reproach me long?
A62309And how do they do in Colleges, said Ragotin, where they fight pitch''d Battels?
A62309And lastly, What made him to have his Hands tied behind him?
A62309And perhaps he had accomplish''d his ends, for what will not a covetous Wretch do to preserve his Pelf?
A62309And the Crime they accuse him of, does it not proceed from their bad Example?
A62309And to what purpose is he courting Glory and Fame in Flanders, whilst I Disgrace him in Spain?
A62309And were I not that Villain, and that Traytor, if I should leave for you, a Person who has reason to think I love her?
A62309And what do you owe to your self, says the King, which you do not owe to my Love?
A62309And what is the matter?
A62309And what will they say in all Spain?
A62309And when with his resistless Dart The little God has pierc''d the Heart, What Mortal can conceal the smart?
A62309And whether their Women were handsom?
A62309And whither he design''d to have carried her?
A62309And who, in Lucifer''s Name, wou''d not be so under my Circumstances?
A62309And why so, reply''d Don Rodrigo?
A62309And why so?
A62309And you, quoth Verville, When do you design to Marry?
A62309Answer me precisely, Sir, continu''d Dorothea, to what I shall now demand of you, which is this?
A62309Are the Bona Roba''s kind, and will they venture a Broad- side with one?
A62309Are they conceal''d in the Earth?
A62309Are they mounted up to Heaven?
A62309As first, Why he had told Madam Star that he was Wounded?
A62309As for the Coaches, added he, Will it not be a Novelty in a Play?
A62309As soon as she had perus''d this Letter, Cave ask''d her, if she knew that Hand?
A62309At last she askt how he could pretend to appear in the Valley of Iosaphat, and in what pickle he would rise from the Dead?
A62309At length the Father took Courage, and demanded of him Who he was?
A62309At the end of the Ally we met with the young pair of Lovers: Verville ask''d me aloud, whether I had entertain''d Mistress Maudlin as she deserv''d?
A62309At the first approach of our Adventurer Don Manuel cry''d out, Who goes there?
A62309Being much disturb''d in his righteous spirit, he ask''d her why she was not in her Armour?
A62309Besides how can a Fool love you, that has not sense enough to know your merit?
A62309But Madam, can you not change me this kind of Death?
A62309But Madam, who can you behold, Made of Nature''s richest Mould, A Nymph so Charming who can see, And not with Love transported be?
A62309But after all, is not this Miracle of Beauty purely fram''d in your own Imagination?
A62309But are you sure of what you say?
A62309But cry''d the Vice- Roy, with a stern Countenance, What is become of this Woman and your Page?
A62309But do n''t I make you blush?
A62309But how came she at the entrance of a Wood, continued he, when Ragotin left her yesterday at Mans?
A62309But how will you do to go, quoth Rancour to him, since your Horse has been lately prick''d in Shooing, and is lame?
A62309But if I be handsom, said she, what then?
A62309But is it not their fault?
A62309But is it possible for a Man to Write well, when he has not a Farthing to bless him?
A62309But is it possible that the Great Conde should know I am still in the World?
A62309But what do you now meditate, pursued she?
A62309But what may not a man save in the compass of many years, who steals all that he can from himself and other people?
A62309But which of em?
A62309But whom did you intend it for?
A62309But why should I disguise my self any longer?
A62309But, added she, Have you ever yet heard that among all the crowd of her Admirers she ever favour''d one more than another?
A62309But, my Lord, since I have hapned to make mention of my Writings and all that, has my Fable of Hero and Leander had the Happiness to please you?
A62309By whose order he had the Horse?
A62309Can a young, base, cheating Pretender, be Discreet?
A62309Could he have chang''d his Name, if he had meant to keep his flattering Promises?
A62309Could you have procured your Pardon think you, and don''t you yet know that the King never passes by Crimes of that nature?
A62309Daughter, said she to me, have I not said enough to let you understand that I am the most wretched Woman in the World?
A62309Destiny ask''d him why he went from him without giving him Warning?
A62309Destiny interrupted him, to ask him where they could get so many Gentlemen and Ladies?
A62309Did not I see you engag''d with my Brother?
A62309Did not a Gentleman come to your Assistance?
A62309Do you know a certain Gentleman called Verville, quoth Garouffiere, and is he one of your Friends?
A62309Do you know, continu''d Don Pedro, how marry''d people ought to live?
A62309Do you take me either for an Astrologer or a Magician?
A62309Don Pedro dissembling his vexation, ask''d her who he was?
A62309Elvira could not forbear asking, whether that Lucretia were a greater Beauty?
A62309Elvira spying the Letters in her Governant''s Hands, ask''d what it was?
A62309Explain these Riddles, reply''d I, and learn me who you are, that I may know of what Sex I have you for my Enemy?
A62309From whence he came?
A62309Have I thus long been so ● ● liscreet and Reserv''d, to commit at last a most Irreparable Fault?
A62309Have you now done with your rash Suspicions, said the Invisible Lady?
A62309He asked them what the matter was?
A62309He then proceeded to demand of him What the Devil made him to thrust himself while naked, and his Hands tied, among his Stocks of Bees?
A62309He threw himself at my Feet, and taking me by the Hand, which he all bathed with his Tears, Sophy, said he to me, What must I loose you then?
A62309He was just going to attack another of the Packs when the Pedler entred the Chamber, who hearing him walk about demanded Who was there?
A62309Her Mother ask''d me why I was so great a Stranger, and why they had not seen me as frequently as they were wo nt?
A62309Here she stopt, being almost suffocated with Sighs and Sobs: I ask''d her once again, What ail''d her?
A62309His Brother, Saint Far, answer''d,''T is I, What the Devil do you do here in the Dark at this time of Night?
A62309His first Question was, Where, where are the thieving Gypsies?
A62309How came you hither?
A62309How came you to know that, said Star, for I do n''t remember I ever told it you?
A62309How dare you report your self to be Nobly born, when you are one of the very worst of Men?
A62309How do you mean your share, answer''d la Garouffiere with a serious Countenance, Does it become a Iudge as you are to talk after that rate?
A62309How great is his Hate like to prove, if ever he should repent his Loving me?
A62309How he came to be Naked?
A62309How much does it delight me, replies Isidora, to hear Signior Don Marcos talk after this manner?
A62309How then would you have me to repair your loss, quoth the Hostess, get you about your business for a Company of Impudent Rogues?
A62309I ask''d her likewise, what was the meaning of so many Tears?
A62309I ask''d him whence he came, and who he was?
A62309I may be ask''d, What makes me concern 〈 ◊ 〉 self about it?
A62309I perceiv''d then, return''d the Counsellor, that Don Quixot is very little in your Favour?
A62309I took up the Box and began to rattle it, whereupon du Lys ask''d me who I would be at?
A62309I was amaz''d to hear a Chamber- Maid talk at that extraordinary Rate; and so I ask''d her, by what Authority she took upon her to Exorcise me?
A62309If then, continued he, he could gain so far upon these Rusticks what will he be able to do when he comes to speak before Men of Sense?
A62309If they had good Cloaths?
A62309In like manner: Can a Man praise his Friends without tiring them, or expose their Defects without offending them?
A62309Infamous Slaves, cry''d he aloud is it thus that ye convey away your selves from your Maste ● Service?
A62309Infidel, said she to him, How could you have the baseness both to betray me, and to bring this Lady to the deplorable Condition you see her in?
A62309Interrupted the Vice- Roy, with Concern in his Countenance) do you pretend to adore her?
A62309Is it possible she shou''d have so little conscience with her?
A62309Is it thus Traitor Amet that you perform your Promise, to rid me of a Rival, and leave me with my Love?
A62309Is it, added she, that he never yet thought any of them worth his trouble?
A62309Is not this downright Conjuration?
A62309Is there none among us, added he, that knows what he would have?
A62309Is this, added she weeping, that passionate Love you profess''d to my Sister?
A62309La Rappiniere ask''d Rancour when this Mischance befell him?
A62309La Rappiniere ask''t Destiny, why he Disguis''d his Face with a Patch?
A62309La Rappiniere with Trouble in his Face, ask''d him what his silly Servant had to say to him?
A62309Muley at his first arrival 〈 ◊ 〉 manded of the assaulted Woman What made her to 〈 … 〉 And of the others What they were going to do?
A62309Must a Stranger who has scarce the Honour to be known to you, be notwithstanding prefer''d to me?
A62309My Lord, DOn''t I take too much freedom upon me to persecute you with my Letters?
A62309No Man was ever so much out of Countenance, as la Rappiniere: His Wife who presently suspected the truth of the Matter, ask''d him if he was Mad?
A62309Nothing more certain, said he; Why then will you return to her Brother''s to endanger your self afresh?
A62309One of them said with a terrible Voice to William?
A62309Or can I hope after all this, he will not Reveal his easie Conquest over me?
A62309Or whether are they gone?
A62309Or, How could you have the Heart to make me Guilty of Treachery to the Man I lov''d so dearly?
A62309Others, Knock them down, and lastly, some more Conscientious, Who are ye?
A62309Others, Who are you for?
A62309Our silly Innocent no sooner saw her, but she askt her why the ● entleman did not come, and whether he was still sick?
A62309Prethee consider a little Monsieur Ragotin, proceeded he, Do n''t you know me?
A62309R ● ncour, who had an accostin Behaviour, first begg''d his Pardon for their interrupting his Repose, and then ask''d him from whence he came?
A62309Raillery apart, What is the reason I never see you?
A62309Rancour ask''d him, What he would have?
A62309Rancour ask''t him, What he thought of their Women?
A62309Rancour got up and dress''d himself before Ragotin wak''d; and then ask''d him, Whether;''t was to do Pennance that he left his Bed to sleep on Straw?
A62309Shall he possess you Sophy, and will you consent to it?
A62309Shall your Father pretend to dispose of you, when he has already given you me?
A62309She ask''d him how his wounds fared?
A62309She reply''d, How much will you throw at?
A62309She was ask''d if she knew that Man?
A62309Some Persons may object why is not the City Romance here?
A62309T''other day you gave me Voiture''s Works, and am I not an Impudent Fellow to ask you a thing of greater Importance?
A62309Tell me then I beseech you dear Doctor; continu''d he, will this little charming, shining Star suffer me to share any of her Influence?
A62309Tell me, Bully Rock, art thou still strong and Iusty?
A62309Tell me, my charming Tormenter, are you a Christian?
A62309The Brother of the Deceased ask''d him, Why he carried his Brothers Body into his Room?
A62309The Fellow feeling himself struck, turn''d about of a sudden and cry''d, What little T — 〈 ◊ 〉 this?
A62309The Host hearing this, went into the Strollers Chamber, and demanded of them and the Pedlers, whether any of them had been in their Neighbours Room?
A62309The charming Widow first broke the silence, and weeping at such a rate as if it were to be her last, she ask''d the Black how he found himself?
A62309The other Ladies immediately ask''d what was the meaning of my so cold Deportment, which they scarce took to be Civil?
A62309The poor Choristers reply''d, they knew not what the Devil he would have them sing?
A62309Thinkst thou that thy honour is safe, because thou hast a vertuous Wife?
A62309This was a cruel blow to poor Ragotin whom Rancour whisper''d in the Ear, Did not I tell you what this would come to?
A62309To whom for God sake do you think you are talking, added he, and what the Devil makes you talk to me of Schemes, and the Influences of Stars?
A62309Verville cry''d our, Who goes there?
A62309Verville perceiving me in a Quandary; What''s the Matter, says he?
A62309Villain, cry''d Muley, to him, turning 〈 ◊ 〉 Horses Head, How durst you Assaidt the Prince of Fez?
A62309Villain, said I, you have betray''d me, and what could induce you to so base an Action after you had been so well used both by me and Don Carlos?
A62309Virginia came boldly into the Chamber, and ask''d him aloud, Whither he was going in such haste?
A62309Was it not, continued he, for the fair Lady that set so many honest Dogs together by the Ears?
A62309Well, reply''d the Hostess, but did ye find any of your Packs slit or torn, or the Cords unloos''d?
A62309Well, said Cave, what think you now of your Companion, and your Brother''s Servant?
A62309What Scale a City?
A62309What advantage wilt thou get by killing thy self, but assuring the possession of Carlos the firmer to thy Rival?
A62309What can I say more?
A62309What didst thou ever do like this?
A62309What is it I say thou art looking for abroad?
A62309What is it thou art looking for elsewhere?
A62309What say you?
A62309What think you of that Girl, I had bred up with so much Care; and that young Fellow, whose Wit and Discretion we so often admired?
A62309What will not my Brother be provok''d to do against me, by what I have done against my self?
A62309What will they say at Toledo?
A62309What''s matter for that, said she, so she lov''d you?
A62309What''s that you tell me?
A62309What, have you got another Husband?
A62309What,( added she) if he should deceive the Curate in order to deceive me?
A62309What?
A62309Whence he came?
A62309Where shall I begin?
A62309Whether there was any good Actors among them?
A62309Which among all your Ladies it is, that would be soonest able to keep you in Seville were it her request?
A62309Who could this now be but Ragotin?
A62309Who else?
A62309Who then, Scoundrel?
A62309Who told you we were here?
A62309Whom neither Love nor Friendships sway, Will you not pity my Despair, Rather than Innocence betray?
A62309Why did I let him know I lov''d him, before I was assur''d of the sincerity of his Heart?
A62309Why he carried her away from Mans?
A62309Why is he from me, the Man that I love?
A62309Why should my barb''rous Stars delight On me to shed their restless Spight?
A62309Why should you not think your self as deserving as another?
A62309Why so?
A62309Will you for ever cruel prove, And must I think your Heart of Stone; Will you not yet consent to Love, But suffer me to be undone?
A62309Will you give me leave to speak a grea ● truth to you?
A62309Will you not let me die in quiet?
A62309With whom could she come else, reply''d he?
A62309Wou''d you have me cite you other Examples to convince you, that my Unhappiness is Contagious?
A62309You are certainly wrong in your notious, replies the Dutchess; but what do you mean by being well educated?
A62309You may perhaps have heard, continued she, that a certain Cavalier Loves me, but did you ever hear that I return''d his Love?
A62309You whom I have loved so dearly, and who have always endeavoured to make me believe that you loved me likewise?
A62309and I consent to it, What Woman in the World can be more Miserable than my self, when his Fancy is over?
A62309and Who he was?
A62309and cou''d you pass so disadvantageous a judgment of a person, who had given you so many proofs of her affection?
A62309can she be there still, and in my Chamber too, reply''d I?
A62309can you find no better Employment than to kill and murder poor People?
A62309do they give Serenades with Organs in th ● Country, said Destiny?
A62309do they use to perform Divine Service here in the Street?
A62309perceiving my Astonishment; Do you feel a Remorse of Conscience for your base Action?
A62309quoth Rancour, Do People use to make their Epitaphs before they are Dead?
A62309quoth he, whether art thou going in such haste?
A62309said Angelica, interrupting him, is then Madam Star that Leonora?
A62309said she, are you not Verville?
A62309that can not live without you?
A62309you were too well beloved, answer''d he, and since I lov''d Don Carlos likewise, what ill have I done in endeavouring to ● i d my self of a Rival?
A62309you, will you come along with us?
