48884But, cruel Mask, incomprehensible Mask, what then_ do_ you want? 48884 Ca n''t you read all you need to know in my eyes?"
48884Did one ever hear of such inconceivable caprice? 48884 Have I found you again?
48884In what regiment?
48884Is it a dream?
48884Is it your mother, or sister? 48884 Is that she?"
48884Léon de Préval, that''s your name, is n''t it,she said dreamily,"captain of the Sixth Horse?
48884May I not at least cherish the hope that you will be sorry for my sufferings?
48884Nobody, really? 48884 Pray, why should you suppose that I am to be pitied?
48884Then,she said timidly,"you love her still?"
48884They are bewitching, but suppose a sweet smile went with them?
48884Toward men? 48884 Well, madame,"he said coldly,"what is it you want of me?
48884What are you doing here, Elinor?
48884What can that matter to you, cruel one, since you do not mean to see me ever again?
48884What do I see?
48884What, already a widow? 48884 What, does constancy--?
48884What, so soon?
48884Where does that beautiful baby come from?
48884Where is this mysterious hiding place? 48884 Who can she be,"he said to himself,"so attractive and so odd?
48884Why, what harm has she done to him?
48884Will she come? 48884 You are not married?"
48884You are on furlough, perhaps? 48884 You call that an avowal?
48884You will forget her, Léon?
48884Your plans?
48884''s who told us that strange story?
48884And how?
48884And why all these sacrifices?
48884And why should she alternately encourage and repel me?
48884And, perhaps, a husband?"
48884Are all husbands so kind?
48884Are all men so tender?
48884Are you still hiding your face from me?
48884Are you sure it still exists for you?
48884As long as she he loves is free, can he cease to be so too?
48884But pray, how and on whom?
48884But when?
48884But where is she to be found?
48884But why wake me so soon?"
48884But would you care to see your daughter?"
48884By what inconceivable miracle--""Is it really so astonishing?
48884Can they refuse to let me see my child when I am dying?
48884Can you find any pleasure in this new way of tormenting him?"
48884Could I ever forget her?"
48884Could she have done it only to sever it immediately?
48884Did one ever see anything to equal the presumption of these men?"
48884Do you expect to stay long in the city?"
48884Does your family live in this city?"
48884Drawing her hood down over her eyes, and disguising her voice more carefully than ever, she said sadly:"No, why take me home?
48884Even supposing time should at length wear out the deep impression made on him by his transient happiness, can he be said to belong to himself now?
48884Have you really been thinking about me?
48884He turned and saw before him-- Who was it?
48884How can he owe his life to those who have spoiled it for him?
48884How could he make this appointment agree with the air of lofty distinction and reserve of the stranger?
48884How was he to reconcile the elaborate precautions of this strange compact with the enlightenment that was promised?
48884I am, on the contrary, so determined to see you again that--""_ Mon Dieu_, my dear, what ever has become of you?"
48884I must have time to make up my mind, to find out exactly what I want, and then, perhaps--""Then, perhaps, what?
48884IV But who shall describe his anxiety and distress as the days went by, then a week, a second and a third, with still no news from the stranger?
48884Indeed, could any woman match Elinor in his eyes?
48884Is it not your own?
48884Is it you I am looking at, is it you I hold?
48884Is such happiness possible?
48884Is there, on the contrary, one who deserves to be regretted?"
48884Is this the tender, gentle, attentive Léon, who in this very room so fervently vowed to be wholly constant and submissive?"
48884May I not know who is the fascinating creature that takes a pleasure in teasing me?
48884Might not his unknown mistress have had a hand in the matter?
48884O my beloved lady why hide from my love?
48884Of what use to know a woman you can no longer love?
48884Oh, what have you done, Elinor?
48884Only, having received so many marks of your indifference, could I expect to find you vulnerable?"
48884The memory of the moments we spent together entirely absorbs me; is it possible they have no power over you?"
48884Then what are you waiting for?
48884Then, once more opening them,"Where am I?"
48884Was I to foster an insane passion for an invisible woman who had forsaken me?
48884What can she want?
48884What do I see on the sofa?
48884What fresh scheme are you devising?
48884What is to prevent him from marrying?"
48884What makes you suppose me unchanged?
48884What more can I say?
48884What must one do to obtain at least your pity?"
48884What new caprice prompts you now to claim it?
48884What new way of taking me in?"
48884When are you going to begin to think about his happiness?
48884Where?
48884Why lift me to a pinnacle of bliss only to dash me to earth again directly after?
48884Why not reveal yourself, and end this folly that has lasted already far too long?
48884Why remove my mask?
48884Why should I not in my turn reject a chain once hateful to yourself?
48884Why should not I too now cherish my independence?
48884Why tease me with alternate kindness and coldness?
48884Why was I such a fool as to accept her artful conditions?"
48884Will you not leave me a little hope?"
48884You are in the service, no doubt?"
48884You still want to run away?
48884You want to leave me already?
48884de Gernancé,"was it he?
48884he said,"is it possible that my loyalty and honor were invoked merely to satisfy the passing caprice of an unprincipled and immoral woman?
6403''Are you not fit for society?'' 6403 ''Are you quite sure of that?''
6403Adolphe,she says,"do you want to do me a favor?"
6403Ah, it''s your husband?
6403Ah, sir, you take an interest in me, do you not?
6403Alas, what can I do?
6403And is he keeping you waiting?
6403But does it not require courage to appear to be what one really is?
6403But why have you come back?
6403But, my dear child, what does this trifling inconvenience amount to, if your husband is kind and possesses a good disposition?
6403Caroline?
6403Come, go on, what is it?
6403Do n''t you recognize them?
6403Do n''t you think she speaks to you rather impertinently?
6403Do you suppose I would notice a maid? 6403 Frederick the Great?
6403Have you forgotten our agreement?
6403How can I remember while admiring your Raphaelistic head?
6403If her husband does n''t come,said Justine to the cook,"what will become of us?
6403If your request is reasonable, I am willing--"Ah, already-- that''s a true husband''s word-- if--"Come, what is it?
6403Is that a reason? 6403 Is there a feuilleton this morning?"
6403Jealous of whom? 6403 My dear Caroline,"says Adolphe one day to his wife,"are you satisfied with Justine?"
6403Now do you see the depth of the fold which I mentioned? 6403 Now, is it a possible thing, Caroline?"
6403Oh, sir, only be a man--"Are you aware of the full bearing of that request, fair creature?
6403Recognize what?
6403So, your Adolphe is jealous?
6403Then you know--?
6403Very good,she says,"did he explain to you how to cook them?"
6403Well, Adolphe?
6403Well, Caroline?
6403Well, Stephanie?
6403Well, dear, how is it with you?
6403Well, what does that prove? 6403 Well,"said I to the notary''s clerk,"do you know what was the nature of this letter to the late Bourgarel?"
6403Well?
6403Well?
6403Well?
6403Well?
6403What are you going to do?
6403What are you thinking of, Justine? 6403 What came of it?"
6403What do you mean, sir?
6403What do you say?
6403What for, pray?
6403What is Benoit''s opinion?
6403What kind is it you like, then?
6403What of the mother?
6403Where did you get that idea, my sweet? 6403 Where is my husband going?
6403Where were we, sir?
6403Where?
6403Who could it be, except Ferdinand?
6403Who do you mean?
6403Who knows?
6403Whom are you expecting?
6403Why do you ask, my little man?
6403Why have n''t you been to see me, then?
6403Why, this affair--"Chaumontel''s affair?
6403Wo n''t you refuse?
6403Your mushrooms_ a l''Italienne_?
6403''Does n''t he know you?''
6403''So you are reconciled, you and Madame de Lustrac,''some one said to him in the lobby of the Emperor''s theatre,''you have pardoned her, have you?
6403A child belonging to the genus Terrible, exclaims in the presence of everybody:"Mamma, would you let Justine hit me?"
6403Anything new?
6403Are you not next to nothing here in your chimney- corner?
6403But when?
6403Ca n''t I go with Madame de Fischtaminel?
6403Can I control my anger at the thought that Adolphe is dining in the city without me?
6403Do n''t you remember how tiresome she was when she visited the Deschars?
6403Do n''t you remember that the happier was to write first and to console her who remained in the country?
6403Do you like that better than being adored?
6403Do you suppose that this opinion that husbands have of their wives, the parts they give them, is not a singular vexation for us?
6403Do you think so?
6403Do you?
6403Does n''t he, Ferdinand?
6403For instance--"The author( may we say the ingenious author?)
6403Has anything been discovered?"
6403Have you any children?
6403Have you put yourself in her place?
6403How does she ever open it?
6403How much?
6403Hypocrite, do you want to make me believe that you have forgotten your son so soon, M''lle Suzanne Beauminet''s son?"
6403I wo n''t see her again, her style of conduct exposes your reputation--""What can people say-- what have they said?"
6403If he sees me with a book, he comes and says a dozen times an hour--''Nina, dear, have n''t you finished yet?''
6403Is it not enough to make the bravest tremble?
6403Is it not this fact which makes a treasure out of a letter where one gives one''s self over to one''s thoughts?
6403Is n''t he, Ferdinand?
6403Madame Deschars is too prudish, Madame Foullepointe too absolute in her household, and she knows it; indeed, what does n''t she know?
6403Now everybody has rich relations of whom they say''Will he leave anything like it?''
6403Now, can I keep from thinking this way?
6403Or this:"Yesterday, love, you made me wait for you: what will it be to- morrow?"
6403Or this:"You traitorous Chodoreille, what were you doing yesterday on the boulevard with a woman hanging on your arm?
6403Shall I ever come to that?
6403The King of Prussia?"
6403Then his monotonous remarks:"''What o''clock is it, love?
6403Then, what is the matter with him?
6403There would then be a struggle, a comedy: but how could the aconite of jealousy have taken root in his soul?
6403Well, shall I deceive the marrying class of the population, and scratch the passage out?
6403What are you doing now?
6403What are you thinking of?
6403What are you?
6403What do you mean to do?
6403What does he want?
6403What is my husband doing?
6403What is the good of all this?
6403What was I saying?"
6403What''s the matter, mamma?
6403What''s the matter?
6403Where have you come from?"
6403Where shall we go this evening?
6403Who and what is there that does not pass off, or become passe?
6403Who has not heard an Italian opera in the course of his life?
6403Who knows but we may get him elected deputy for Viviers, in the course of time?
6403Why did he not take me with him?"
6403Why did n''t you tell me about Frederick?"
6403Why has he left me?
6403Why should we fill them with vexation?
6403Would you believe that it is during the night, when we are the most closely united, that I am the most alone?
6403You do n''t know your own happiness: come, what is it?"
6403says Justine to herself,"monsieur wants to send me away, does he?
5899And did the viscountess perceive your distress during these three days? 5899 Are you not going on Thursday to a ball of Madame de B-----?"
5899But what policy is it that demands this course of action? 5899 Do you happen,"he said in a low voice,"to have a thousand crowns to lend me?
5899Do you take me for a child?
5899Do you think that I would allow madame to go anywhere on foot unaccompanied by a lackey in livery? 5899 He allowed himself to be easily convinced?"
5899How can you thus run the risk of causing the death of two worthy people? 5899 I would never have believed that my uncle was such a dashing blade?"
5899Is not woman endowed with a soul? 5899 Ought we not to feel more interest in the improvement of the human race than in that of horses?
5899So after all, madame, you have your cross?
5899Very well, my lord; but would you have the goodness to throw over my horse also?
5899Why do you leave us?
5899Why should we change the subject of debate? 5899 Would you like to be my widow?"
5899You do it by opposing her?
5899''How is it that the servants have not warmed our beds?''
5899''Madame de----- told me that one evening at a ball you had been found nearly fainting in her card- room?''
5899''Was my appearance to your taste this evening?''
5899( as he goes to bed)--What do you think, my darling?
5899( sitting next to Husband B, speaking at the same time)--What is that you are saying, my friend?
5899( smiling)--Don''t they overwhelm you all the time with their superiority?
5899( vivaciously)--But why should you go alone?
5899( with vivacity)--Who told you so?
5899And does he not know all the comings and goings of these Parisian gondolas?
5899And finally, have you influence, powerful friends, an important post?
5899And really, does not desire constitute of itself a sort of intuitive possession?
5899Are we not two companions united in making the same journey?
5899At what age, in what day, does this terrible revolution occur?
5899But in what mood should you enter?
5899But where do you find such love genuine and constant?
5899But why should it not have been a philosopher who dreaded the disenchantment which a woman would experience at the sight of a man asleep?
5899But with regard to money, what interest can you expect your wife to take in a machine in which she is looked upon as a mere bookkeeper?
5899By what reasonings has man arrived at that point in which he brought in vogue a practice so fatal to happiness, to health, even to_ amour- propre_?
5899Can it be said that during the journey the one must never hold out his hand to the other to raise up a comrade or to prevent a comrade''s fall?
5899Can you forget that a suit for infidelity could never be won by a husband excepting through this conjugal noise?
5899Can you keep your eye on every opening in the fence of the park?
5899Do n''t you know that the noise of which you complain seems more terrible to the wife uncertain of her crime, than the trumpet of the Last Judgment?
5899Do you know, my dear, that you are right in what you say?
5899Do you want any proof of this?
5899Does he love me still?
5899For what do women read?
5899Has she not feelings as we have?
5899He could not restrain a laugh and said:"Wo n''t my wife be astonished at the Last Judgment?"
5899Her imagination was aroused; it was no longer taken up with her lover; had she not better, first of all, probe her husband''s secret?
5899If love is extinguished between a married couple, can not friendship and confidence still survive?
5899If your wife is a woman of profound dissimulation, the question is, what signs will indicate to her the motives of your long mystification?
5899In a rage then?
5899In any case artists speak of things about which every one is enthusiastic, for who is there who does not believe in good taste?
5899In short, how can the most bold of the distinguished women who are the subject of this work show herself under these circumstances in public?
5899Is it for the purpose of insinuating the imbecility of slumber that the Romans decorated the heads of their beds with the head of an ass?
5899Is it not certain that cooling applications, douches, baths, etc., produce great changes in more or less acute affections of the brain?
5899Is it not then time to display that intellectual power with which we armed you in our Meditation entitled_ Of the Custom House_?
5899Is it not to fasten it up in a pretty cage, from which it can not get out without permission?
5899Is it possible my wife is in love with Dr. M-----?
5899Is not that the best style?
5899Is not their home flanked on either side by other houses?
5899Is there a man in the world who knows how he appears to others, and what he does when he is asleep?
5899Is there not here a much wider question than that of mere cabinet- making to decide?
5899Is there such a policy?"
5899May not all intrigues in love be confined in these words--entering and leaving?
5899Must not the policy of husbands be very nearly the same as the policy of kings?
5899Now have you ever considered the results which follow these poetical readings?
5899Now what can we add that would not be a tedious paraphrase of the lessons suggested by this conversation?
5899Now what the deuce would you expect a woman to answer?
5899Or, is it based on the lost tradition of a former life?
5899Should wise husbands adopt these beds on castors?
5899Should your wife take a hack, what have you to fear?
5899THE WIFE.--What is it all about, Adolph?
5899The first word of the husband, who spoke without thinking, and for the sake of talking, was the question:"Has any one been here to- day?"
5899The flame is brilliant and quickly vanishes, but is not the imagination at hand to act as your ally?
5899The only thing she feels is that your want of confidence was useless; if she wished to betray, who could hinder her?
5899This energetic apprehension of things, does it not call into being an internal emotion more powerful than that of the external action?
5899Was Napoleon, during his campaign in Russia, a prey to the most horrible pangs of dysuria, or was he not?
5899Well, my poor child[ you must not call her_ my poor child_ excepting when the crime has not been committed]--why deceive ourselves?
5899What advantage is it that we have made the whole universe subserve our existence, our delusions, the poesy of our life?
5899What do you propose doing?
5899What does a husband proclaim?
5899What happy or what fatal influence can not the porter exercise upon their lot?
5899What human faces, what monuments of the dead are not made more beautiful than actual nature in the artistic representation?
5899What is it that produces this wonderful characteristic of humanity?
5899What is the first course of a young girl after having purchased a parrot?
5899What must that life have been, if this slight residuum of memory offers us such volumes of delight?
5899What result can possibly follow on exertions so ill- proportioned to the resources of the delicate sex?
5899What risks will not a passionate woman run when she becomes aware that her husband is a heavy sleeper?
5899Who has not seen on reading the_ Confessions_ of Jean- Jacques, that Madame de Warens is described as much prettier than she ever was in actual life?
5899Why did I marry?
5899Why do n''t you enumerate to the viscountess the astonishing precautions manifest in the Oriental luxury of the Roman dames?
5899Why do n''t you speak, my pet?
5899Why do you not answer me?
5899Would you have the power to send your wife''s lover off by securing his promotion, or his change of residence by an exchange, if he is a military man?
5899Would you like to be murdered by me?"
5899_ The Touch and Go Mouse- Trap._ THE WIFE.--Why did you go away so early this evening?
5899cried a gentleman from the West, impatiently rising to his feet,"are we here to dilate upon the advancement of music?
5899no ear- rings?"
5899sir,"continued the husband, who was warming to his subject,"can I not find also admirable pretexts in my solicitude for her heath?
2551''And what did you see?'' 2551 ''Whence comes you?''
2551A compromise is then agreeable with justice?
2551And did not you deceive me?
2551And how old are you?
2551And how will you manage the affair?
2551And what does this mean?
2551And what is your name?
2551And you do n''t know the service that monks sing without saying a word?
2551And you have never thought of gaining another country in company of a lover on horseback on a fleet courser?
2551And your mother?
2551Are you in your proper senses, cousin? 2551 Are you then, acquainted with no French or Sicilian gentlemen at Palermo?"
2551Are you unwell, Sylvia, that you burn so?
2551But justice?
2551But,said Bertha,"between us, would it be a sin?"
2551Can he hear?
2551Can he see?
2551Cousin, does love blossom in the married state?
2551Cousin, does love then, commence in the eyes?
2551Did I not see the Abbot of Turpenay here just now?
2551Did you take pleasure in the affair?
2551Do you like music? 2551 Do you possess any relic with which your fortune is wound up?"
2551Do you think you are in safety?
2551Fine sir,said the abbot,"know you what this maid is worth?"
2551Have you are among your women one in whom you have perfect confidence?
2551He who has robbed you, is he well off?
2551If she works like that in cold water, what will she do in warm?
2551Is a cuckold made in the image of God?
2551Is he slain?
2551Is there enough for her?
2551Love is a child then?
2551My son,replied the abbot"have you lost your senses?
2551Should I be happier if everybody wanted me?
2551Sire de Monsoreau,said the queen, turning towards him with an angry look,"are you so bold as to oppose our will and pleasure?"
2551Tell me, why not?
2551Then you are not certain of being received?
2551This is dishonour then? 2551 Well,"said she,"am I nicer?"
2551What do you call otherwise?
2551What do you mean by those words?
2551What do you require, Father Amador?
2551What do you want here?
2551What does this mean?
2551What is the matter?
2551What is your father?
2551What message?
2551What shall we do, dear cousin?
2551What should I do to keep him alive?
2551What was, then, this great coquedouille?
2551What''s that?
2551What''s the matter, my darling? 2551 What?"
2551Where?
2551Which is she?
2551Which of the two is Adam?
2551Who brought him?
2551Who?
2551Why are there so many men pilgrims and so few women pilgrims?
2551Why so?
2551Will you die?
2551Would you like a little milk?
2551Would you like to have another?
2551You love your cow, then, more than the salvation of your soul?
2551You saw her?
2551You, with your own eyes, saw this woman, cursed cuckold, and you did not kill your rival?
2551Am I a holy shrine?
2551Am I not to your taste?
2551Am I so cold as to freeze the sun?
2551Am I too hallowed for you to touch?
2551And when the volume is done and finished, all smiles, she exclaims,"Oh, master, are there any more to come?"
2551Are not all the joys bestowed upon her due to you?
2551Are you not afraid of being cast into prison?"
2551Are you ready?"
2551Are you sufficiently well furnished with crowns to become the founder of a noble line?"
2551But the king''s eye was already at the cursed hole, Leufroid saw-- what?
2551But these opinionated critics, do they know what it is to love?
2551Can you derive a like proof in any other typographically blackened portfolios?
2551Can you find in all Christendom a more virtuous provost?
2551Certain evil- disposed people will still cry out at this; but can you find a man perfectly contented on this lump of mud?
2551Did I ever refuse to obey you even during Lent, and on fast days?
2551Did you ever meet a scribe so complacent and so fond of the ladies as I am?
2551Do charming wenches know more than ladies?
2551Do not the townspeople pursue, and torment you with love?"
2551Do you know that it is a living flower, which should be fondled thus, and not used like a trombone, or as if it were a catapult of war?
2551Do you mean to say, you quadrupeds, that the word is wrong?
2551Do you thoroughly understand?
2551Do you understand, my good reapers of horns?
2551Eh?
2551Have not many of them killed themselves through this petticoat tyranny?
2551How are you?
2551How could he make his hands pleasant like mine?
2551How many were there in the town as careful of their hearts and mouths?
2551If you search history, has France ever breathed a word when she was joyous mounted, bravely mounted, passionately mounted, mounted and out of breath?
2551Is it not a knavish trick to put justice in motion against me?
2551Is it not a shame?
2551Is it not abomination?
2551Is it not so?
2551Is she going to deprive the world of love?"
2551Now, can I have confidence in you?
2551Oh, sir, what are you going to do?
2551One day I asked, to see if he was well instructed at school in religious matters,''What is hope?''
2551So that people ran about the streets of Rome crying out,"Where is Madame Imperia?
2551The Venetian took the French knight on his saddle behind him, and said--"Do you know with whom you are?"
2551The king, who was very partial to the viscount, also made a remark to him which stung him to the quick, when he said,"You have no children?"
2551The old hunchback exclaimed, as she entered the chamber,"Now then, my children, what is the matter?"
2551Was he not a splendid specimen of a man?
2551Was it not a strange freak on the part of God, who plays sometimes jokes on us, to have granted so many perfections to a man so badly apparelled?
2551Was there need of a papal brief to kiss me?
2551What do you say?
2551What do you want?"
2551What does she desire?
2551What does woman like best?
2551What is it?
2551Where are thy golden aiglets and bells, thy filigree flowers of fantastic design?
2551Where hast thou left thy crimson head- dress, ornamented with precious gewgaws that cost a minot of pearls?
2551Who is it?"
2551Who is_ Eva_, if not all women in one?
2551Wo n''t the thread go nicely into this iron gate, which makes good use of the thread, for it comes out very much out of order?"
2551Yes?
2551You are not acquainted with the monks?"
2551by St. Mark you have, then, a mystery concealed in your hauberk?"
2551have you had so much of me that you are tired?
2551my lord knight, can one trust you?"
2551said the Touranian;"has no gallant been tempted by your bright eyes to buy your liberty, as I bought mine from the king?"
2551said the Venetian,"by making a sage of your years walk, and giving a noble knight the appearance of a vagabond?
2551what did you do then all day long?"
2551where are the books that make children?
5958And Madame de T-----?
5958And so you are going to be married?
5958But must this bank be always ominous? 5958 But should we not out of decency begin with the husband?"
5958But why do you so rarely visit Madame de V-----? 5958 But why should you have come so soon?"
5958Can not I reproach you with the same thing?
5958Can you show me five men in any nation who have sacrificed anything for a woman? 5958 Did I speak?"
5958Did you know that I was here?
5958Do you think so? 5958 Do you think so?
5958Even a kiss?
5958Has everything been very pleasant? 5958 Have you any plans for this evening?"
5958Have you ever heard him?
5958How has it all gone off?
5958How is this, monsieur?
5958I fear it has left a little cloud on your mind?
5958I have come to the philosophic situation, which you appear to have reached, but I confess that I--"You are searching for ideas?
5958I, sir? 5958 I?
5958I?
5958If I have not visited Madame de V-----, whose fault is it?
5958In the pleasantest place in the world, but ca n''t you guess? 5958 Is he there?"
5958Is n''t this fine?
5958Is this resignation or infatuation?
5958It certainly is, but what am I going to do there? 5958 She is faithful?"
5958She must be endowed with very rare qualities, I suppose? 5958 She sews well?"
5958Well, and have not you in your life caused the unhappiness of more than one person?
5958Well, is your work finished?
5958What is the matter, my darling?
5958What must I do then to convince you of my love?
5958What must I do to reassure you?
5958What, a duel?
5958What,she said,"already here?
5958Where?
5958Whom do you mean?
5958Why are you come so early?
5958Why, is this out of consideration for me? 5958 You astonish me, my dear; she is then your foster- sister?"
5958You did not expect to see me so early, did you?
5958You find it so?
5958You have counted, then, upon that chance, it seems to me?
5958You have succeeded--?
5958Absolutely all?"
5958And really what do you want with an axiom in the present matter?
5958And since the words of Napoleon served to start this book, why should it not end as it began?
5958And whose will be the victory when each of you is caught in a similar snare?
5958Are n''t you ashamed of yourself for not adoring a little wife who is so interesting?
5958Are you very happy with my friend?
5958At Ecouen she was always reading--""And you, what used you to do?"
5958At last he musters all his courage and utters a protest against her pretended malady, in the bold phrase:"And have you really a headache?"
5958But M. Villeplaine has answered for you with his life, and his eminence the Cardinal de----- of whom he is the--""M. de Villeplaine?"
5958But has not Madame de T----- taken you into her secret?
5958But how could I pick one with her?
5958But how shall we treat those compensations which are most pleasing to husbands?
5958But in what point and in what manner does this fatal war break out?
5958But of what use were ancient principles of military art in presence of the impetuous genius of Napoleon?
5958But really, is she not charming?"
5958But tell me, did he really take you for her lover?"
5958But yet, is this true happiness?"
5958But, my dear victim of the Minotaur, is not happiness the object which all societies should set before them?
5958Can any one imagine three human beings as astonished as we were to find ourselves gathered together?
5958Can it be possible that lovers have never sung thy praises, personified thee, or raised thee to the skies?
5958Can you guess who it was?
5958Could she have broken with him?
5958Did not the husband think your visit ridiculous?
5958Do you know him?"
5958Do you love her because she is intellectual?
5958Do you not hear within you a voice which cries,"And what if she is actually suffering?"
5958Does a husband, irritated beyond all measure, at last express his wishes to them?
5958Does it lie in the beauty of the beloved?
5958Had she taken me to be his successor, or only to punish him?
5958Have I a family who will some day give me shelter?"
5958Have you a scent- bottle with you?
5958Have you played your part well?
5958How could I regain my apartment, not knowing where it was?
5958How could he resist doing so?
5958How is it possible to get at the truth when each of you conceals it under the same lie, each setting the same trap for the other?
5958How shall we give a name to this miracle, perhaps the only one wrought upon a patient during his absence?
5958I asked her:"Where have you been, Jeanne?"
5958I fear the contrary--""Why, madame, should everything that the public amuses itself by saying claim our belief?"
5958I replied,"what object can I have with regard to you?
5958If I had not dined yesterday with the veritable-- I should take you--""By the way, has he been good?"
5958If these two children were always faithfully produced, what would become of nations?
5958In what would you say the pleasure of love consists?
5958Is it anything but a social chimera, as Diderot supposed, reminding us that this sentiment always gives way before sickness and before misery?
5958Is it anything in a woman but well understood coquetry?
5958Is it for me-- for me only--?"
5958Is it not this axiom that makes these wretched kings give themselves so much trouble about their people?
5958Is there a regret?
5958Is there--?"
5958Is this a sentiment which is easy for me to repress?
5958Is this fidelity or merely a want of something to do?
5958Is this the vision offered by some gastronomic mirage?
5958M. de Boufflers was asked what he would do if on returning after a long absence he found his wife with child?
5958Might it not be the sanctuary of love?
5958My reflections?
5958Now what man is there so inconsiderate as to dare to speak to a suffering woman about desires which, in him, prove the most perfect health?
5958She perhaps dresses you well?"
5958Was he put out?
5958What can be the matter with me?
5958What can you say in reply?
5958What good will I be in this reconciliation?"
5958What husband is stoical enough to resist such fires, such frosts?
5958What instructions can we give for contending with such adversaries as these?
5958What is our debt to the perpetuation of the race?
5958What man has a mind supple enough to lay aside brute force and strength and follow his wife through such mazes as these?
5958What should be the conduct of a husband, when he recognizes a last symptom which leaves no doubt as to the infidelity of his wife?
5958When a woman utters the name of a man but twice a day, there is perhaps some uncertainty about her feelings toward him-- but if thrice?
5958When are you going to take leave?
5958Will you grant that a lover must put on more clean shirts than are worn by either a husband, or a celibate unattached?
5958Wo n''t you come to me?"
5958Would it be taking a liberty to ask what science it treats of?"
5958Would you like to come with me?
5958Would you like to go in?"
5958Would you love a women because she is well dressed, elegant, rich, keeps a carriage, has commercial credit?
5958You are married, and do you deliberately set about making love to some one else?
5958You do not believe that your wife will call out regiments and sound the trumpet, do you?
5958cried Madame B-----, opening the door of the closet where the baron was frozen with cold, for this incident took place in winter;"how is this?
5958cried the husband,"if you would save your life, answer me--Where is the traitor?"
5958my dear, can not you guess?
5958or better than that, what artifices will she resort to to arm them against you?
5958she said to me,"who can enjoy it more than we and with less cause of fear?
5958would you deny the existence of love on the day after that of marriage?"
1943Again, how can we recognize as divine the principle within us which can be overthrown by a few glasses of rum? 1943 And are there not in our inner nature phenomena of weight and motion comparable to those of physical nature?
1943And do you understand Him?
1943And it will always be so, will it not, my beloved? 1943 And what is to become of me?"
1943And with what word can I conclude when I cease writing to you, and yet do not part from you? 1943 Are you my future?
1943But do you write down the things he says?
1943But from what cause? 1943 But is it not so with every root word?
1943Can life be long when it is thus consumed hour by hour? 1943 Do you ever feel,"said he to me one day,"as though imagined suffering affected you in spite of yourself?
1943Do you pray to God?
1943How could so well organized a brain go astray?
1943How is it that men have hitherto given so little thought to the phenomena of sleep, which seem to prove that man has a double life? 1943 Indeed, monsieur,"said I,"was it not perhaps the result of its being so highly organized?
1943Is it to this time- honored spirit that we owe the mysteries lying buried in every human word? 1943 Is not my position a dreadful one?
1943Is so perfect an attachment happiness? 1943 Is the world eternal?
1943Shall I ever seen you again?
1943Then you have not heard his story?
1943What would Madame la Baronne de Stael say if she could know that you make such nonsense of a word that means noble family, of patrician rank?
1943When I am away from you in the darkness of absence, am I not reduced to use human words, too feeble to express heavenly feelings? 1943 When I come back half dead with fatigue from my long excursions through the fields of thought, on whose heart can I rest?
1943Whence did He derive the essence of creation? 1943 Where do you find''heart''in_ nobilis_?"
1943Who will sit next to him?
1943Why are there so few straight lines in nature? 1943 Why did I come here?
1943Why do you insist that our happiness, which has no resemblance to that of other people, should conform to the laws of the world? 1943 Why in great joy do we always want to quit the earth?
1943Why is green a color so largely diffused throughout creation?
1943Why should I?
1943Why, then, yesterday, did I fail to read your soul? 1943 Why?
1943And are not the supernatural beings before whom the people tremble the personification of their feelings and their magnified desires?
1943And could not I, for you, Pauline, imitate the exquisite reserve of a woman?
1943And is your love endless, like mine?
1943And who better than he could inspire or feel love?
1943And will you fill all my days as you now fill my heart?
1943Are modern monuments as fine as those of the ancients?
1943Are not most words colored by the idea they represent?
1943Are there not certain men who by a discharge of Volition can sublimate the essence of the feelings of the masses?
1943Armed with that thought, ought not a man to sweep everything before him?
1943But is death a farewell?
1943But is not this purpose, in some cases, the result of a vocation?
1943But why then have I such vast faculties without being suffered to use them?
1943Can an idea cause physical pain?--What do you say to that, eh?"
1943Chance or Providence?
1943Could it so early follow the flight of the Holy Spirit across the worlds?
1943Could that childish imagination understand the mystical depths of the Scriptures?
1943Did not I know, at once, that your carriage had been overthrown and you were bruised?
1943Did you not enchant me by the words,''Now and for ever?''
1943Did you wish to hide the cause of your grief?
1943Do not some of them endeavor to concentrate their powers by long silence, so as to emerge fully capable of governing the world by word or by deed?
1943Do you remember it, dear life?
1943Does it not prove some inscrutable locomotive faculty in the spirit with effects resembling those of locomotion in the body?
1943Does my soul foresee evil in the future?
1943Does not the compact brevity of its sound suggest a vague image of chaste nudity and the simplicity of Truth in all things?
1943Has not one celestial glance given us assurance of always understanding each other?
1943Have I not met on this earth with an angel who had made me know all its happiness, as a reward, perhaps, for having endured all its torments?
1943Have you not bestowed on me every gladness man can desire in that chaste-- lavish-- timid glance?
1943He who struggles and endures, while marching on to a glorious end, presents a noble spectacle; but who can have the strength to fight here?
1943How conceive of immaterial faculties which matter can conquer, and whose exercise is suspended by a grain of opium?
1943How could He have failed to foresee all the results?
1943How could He have subsisted through an eternity, not knowing that He would presently want to create the world?
1943How else can we account for a scheme devoid of method or any notion of the future?
1943How imagine that we shall be able to feel when we are bereft of the vehicles of sensation?
1943I alone was allowed really to know that sublime-- why should I not say divine?--soul, for what is nearer to God than genius in the heart of a child?
1943I love you too selfishly perhaps?
1943If I should ever cease to think of you, to love you whether in happiness or in woe, should I not deserve my punishment?"
1943If I was here while I was asleep in my cubicle, does not that constitute a complete severance of my body and my inner being?
1943If evil does not exist, what do you make of social life and its laws?
1943If he is the end- all of the explained transmutations that lead up to him, must he not be also the link between the visible and invisible creations?
1943If it be so, must we not shudder for ourselves, we who are superhumanly happy?
1943If it takes great intelligence to create a word, how old may human speech be?
1943If man is bound up with everything, is there not something above him with which he again is bound up?
1943If man is not free, what becomes of the scaffolding of his moral sense?
1943If nature sells us everything at its true value, into what pit are we not fated to fall?
1943If the common law of school entitled them to thrash us, did it not require them to keep silence as to our misdeeds?
1943If we reflect on man, is not that to consider mankind?
1943If, then, the world proceeds from God, how can you account for evil?
1943In the word_ True_ do we not discern a certain imaginary rectitude?
1943Is earthly fame a guerdon to those who believe that they will mount to a higher sphere?
1943Is he not wholly mine?
1943Is it not during the youth of a nation that its dogmas and idols are conceived?
1943Is not the motion given to the worlds enough to prove God''s existence, without our plunging into absurd speculations suggested by pride?
1943Is not this a need of the age?
1943Is the vitality of matter in its innumerable manifestations-- the effect of its instincts-- at all more explicable than the effects of the mind?
1943Lambert owed the favor and patronage of this celebrated lady to chance, or shall we not say to Providence, who can smooth the path of forlorn genius?
1943Like some beings who dwell in the grosser world, might not he die of inanition for want of feeding abnormal and disappointed cravings?
1943May there not be a new science lying beneath them?"
1943Merely to live, was he not compelled to be perpetually casting nutriment into the gulf he had opened in himself?
1943Merely to regard it in the abstract, apart from its functions, its effects, and its influence, is enough to cast one into an ocean of meditations?
1943Might we not speak of it as a lover who finds on his mistress''lips as much love as he gives?
1943Must this new science destroy them?
1943Must we not attain to the conviction that man is the end of all earthly means before we ask whether he too is not the means to some end?
1943Must we not reverse philosophical science?
1943Or, if he can control his destiny, if by his own freewill he can interfere with the execution of the general plan, what becomes of God?
1943Otherwise, of what value would the sacred words be of this letter, my first and perhaps my last entreaty?
1943Shall we not die in a first embrace?
1943She would have been obliged to do so if he had been her husband, she said, and could she do less for him as her lover?
1943Something most extraordinary must have happened?"
1943Then, after speaking a few words in an undertone to the class- master, he said:"Where can he sit?"
1943Then, to whose genius are they due?
1943This pitiless demon mows down every flower, and mocks at the sweetest feelings, saying:''Well-- and then?''
1943Was not this a sort of debauchery of the intellect which might lead to spontaneous combustion, like that of bodies saturated with alcohol?
1943Was the world created?
1943We gave the accusers a glance of stern reproach: had they not delivered us over to the common enemy?
1943We hurried up to crowd round the superintendent and pester him with questions:"Where was he coming from?
1943Well, then, if my spirit and my body can be severed during sleep, why should I not insist on their separating in the same way while I am awake?
1943Were you sad or suffering?
1943What can_ farewell_ mean, unless in death?
1943What indeed was that time when I knew you not?
1943What is to become of me?
1943What scholar has not many a time found pleasure in seeking the probable meaning of some unknown word?
1943What was his name?
1943Whence came my distress?
1943Which class would he be in?"
1943Which of us all but remembers with delight, notwithstanding the bitterness of learning, the eccentric pleasures of that cloistered life?
1943Which of us all can recollect ever having had a sou left to spend on the Sunday following?
1943Who is it that drives me away?
1943Why did I not know it?
1943Why is it that he alone, of all creatures, has a sense of straightness?"
1943Why is it that man, in his structures, rarely introduces curves?
1943Why must God perish if matter can be proved to think?
1943Why speak of this anguish when my visions are to become realities?
1943Why such differences, due to the more or less ample diffusion of light to men?
1943Why then do we rebel?
1943Would not my spirit be then more closely one with yours?
1943tell me if I can in any way have displeased you yesterday?
1943whence comes the longing to rise which every creature has known or will know?
5704Can you tell me her name or point her out to me?
5704Has the devil again turned up in a mob cap?
5704Have you noticed, dear, that women in general bestow their love only upon a fool?
5704How did you manage it? 5704 Is our work completed?"
5704Tell me,asked the author,"is the disaster which threatens the husband in France quite inevitable?"
5704What do you mean by that, duchess? 5704 What do you mean?
5704What, is this you?
5704Why do n''t they get married?
5704Would n''t it be better,it said,"to let things be as they are?
5704Yes, dear boy; it looks like me, does n''t it?
5704After all, what is the question before us?
5704And how can you make your remark fit in with the fact that they have an aversion for their husbands?"
5704And how many brokers whose real capital does not amount to more than a thousand, two thousand, four thousand, five thousand francs?
5704And is it not, after all the sweetest sacrifice that a loving heart can make, that love should so accommodate itself as to adjust the inequality?
5704And now what do you think about that?
5704And who is deceived on this point?
5704And, moreover, is it necessary for a girl to be any the less under the watchful eye of her mother, because she is mistress of her own actions?
5704Are they not all blooming creatures, fascinating the world by their beauty, their youth, their life and their love?
5704Are they not the supreme flower of the country?
5704Are they too indulgent?
5704Are things so bad?
5704Are women then really slaves?
5704Are you in good health?
5704Are you not a king surrounded by flatterers?
5704Are you then astonished at the famous verse of Boileau?
5704At what number shall we reckon those of the governmental leeches, who are merely quill- drivers with a salary of six hundred francs a year?
5704But do you see in this a fresh idea?
5704But in good faith, would the emancipation of girls set free such a host of dangers?
5704But to what conclusion does our calculation lead us?
5704But what father of good sense would wish his son to be married at twenty years of age?
5704But would you learn the truth?
5704Ca n''t you imagine those three relations seated in silence through that winter midnight beside her bed?
5704Can a man always desire his wife?
5704Can a man ever learn woman and know how to decipher this wondrous strain of music, by remaining through life like a seminarian in his cell?
5704Can it possibly be right to confine women?
5704Can not these men, the religious women will always ask, abide in continence like the priests?
5704Do men submit to it from a want of energy?
5704Do they sin on the score of bad principles?
5704Do we feel more pleasure in kissing the glove of a grisette than in draining the five minutes of pleasure which all women offer to us?
5704Do you reveal new principles?
5704Does she eat?
5704Does the government intend to institute a professional chair of love, just as it has instituted a chair of law?"
5704FIRST EPOCH.--Is it possible that I shall ever have white hair?
5704For in order to be happy, is it not necessary to control the impetuous desires of your senses?
5704For what do you think we are stipulating?
5704For what remains to him of his wife?
5704Gallows birds are ye all-- now in the devil''s name will you not begone?
5704Has she the needs of other species?
5704Have all marriages their honeymoon?
5704Have they pronounced without appeal that it is as impossible to write a book on marriage as to make new again a broken pot?
5704Have we lost all sense of the eloquence of fact?
5704Have we not proved that moral nature, like physical nature, has its laws?
5704Have you no scheme which can preserve marriage from the miseries of excessive cold and excessive heat?
5704How are we to explain this magic spell which rules all the affairs of life?
5704How can it last long between two beings who are united for their whole life, unless they know each other perfectly?
5704How can it set, when once it has risen?
5704How can the honeymoon rise upon two beings who can not possibly love each other?
5704How could the consistency, which was wanting in a political system, be expected in the general manners of the nation?
5704How many merchants who have nothing but a fictitious capital shall we admit?
5704In our case--wouldn''t you like to have the same chance, my respected friend?"
5704Is it default of memory?
5704Is it right to be heir of the man who we slay?"
5704Is it the conversation of a shop- girl which makes you expect boundless delights?
5704Is it the governments or the governed?
5704Is not a snare set in everything which surrounds you on the outside and influences you within?
5704Is not the danger of these precocious unions apparent at all?
5704Is not the world, moreover, full of young women who drag along pale and weak, sickly and suffering?
5704Is not this a question of marito- national importance?
5704Is not this the comedy of comedies?
5704Is not your object to prove that marriage unites for life two beings who do not know each other?
5704Is she any better because she has never had any voice in the secret councils of grown- up girls?
5704Is society afraid to probe its wound or has it recognized the fact that evil is irremediable and things must be allowed to run their course?
5704Is there any comparison between the danger of giving liberty to girls and that of allowing it to wives?
5704Is this all?"
5704Lover or husband, have you smiled, or have you trembled at this evil?
5704Nor is this all; if your mother- in- law sent her daughter to a boarding school, do you believe that this was out of solicitude for her daughter?
5704Now how many answers have not the sauntering artists heard to the categorical question which is always with us?
5704Now what mother of a family is there who would expose her daughter to the risk of this fermentation when it has not yet taken place?
5704On the other hand, what need is there to justify a fact under whose domination all societies exist?
5704Perhaps you hope to find no difficulty in preventing your wife from seeing her school friends?
5704Physiology, for the third and last time I ask you-- What is your meaning?
5704Physiology, what must I consider your meaning?
5704Physiology, what must I consider your meaning?
5704Physiology, what must I take you to mean?
5704Shall we not find these tender tints in the gloomy pictures of loves which violate the marriage law?
5704Should there be a little Hagar in each marriage establishment?
5704Should we make the conjecture that certain honest women act in dividing up the celibates, as the lion in the fable did?
5704THIRD EPOCH.--Why not wear a well- made wig which people would not notice?
5704That adultery does more harm than marriage does good?
5704That an investigation if it could be undertaken would prove that in the transmission of patrimonial property there was more risk than security?
5704That divorce, this admirable release from the misfortunes of marriage, should with one voice be reinstated?
5704That fidelity is impossible, at least to the man?
5704That infidelity in a woman may be traced back to the earliest ages of society, and that marriage still survives this perpetuation of treachery?
5704That it furnishes invaluable pledges for the security of government?
5704That life consists in passion, and that no passion survives marriage?
5704That marriage is an institution necessary for the preservation of society, but that it is contrary to the laws of nature?
5704That marriage is filled with crimes and that the known murders are not the worst?
5704That the laws of love so strongly link together two human beings that no human law can put them asunder?
5704That the wife is treated as a slave?
5704That there has never been a marriage entirely happy?
5704That there is something ridiculous in the wish that one and the same thoughts should control two wills?
5704That there is something touching in the association of two human beings for the purpose of supporting the pains of life?
5704That, in spite of all its inconveniences, marriage is the foundation on which property is based?
5704The men of the microscope who see nothing but a speck, the census- mongers-- have they reviewed the whole matter?
5704They sell their time for money, how can they give it away for happiness?
5704Well, then, O goddess of modern taste, do not these expressions seem to you characterized by a transparency chaste enough for anybody?"
5704Well, then, where are your means of defence?-- Where, indeed?
5704Were the ancients then our masters in political institutions as in morality?
5704What did you tell your husband?"
5704What hope is there for the unfaithful wife?
5704What is held to be more shameful in France than impotence, than coldness, than the absence of all passion, than simplicity?
5704What is the good of blowing the trumpet before victory?"
5704What is the result which these reflections on the feminine virtue lead to?
5704What man has ever heard the moral reflections and the corrupting confidences of these young girls?
5704What then is meant by an honest woman?
5704When the heroic and exceptional young victim leaves the drawing- room, what a deluge of jokes bursts upon his innocent head?
5704Where are you?
5704Where do you wish that our mass of celibates should sow their wild oats?
5704Where is the powerful barrier to restrain her, raised by the light hand of a woman whom you wish to please, because you do not possess?
5704Where must we seek for the causes of this law?
5704Who would not at the present moment wish to retain the persuasion that wives are virtuous?
5704Would it be right to marry young women without providing a dowry and yet exclude them from the right of succeeding to property?
5704Would you hesitate?
5704Would you pretend that it is the right thing that woman should be made common?
5704madame,"I said,"will you ever requite me for all the hatreds which that work will array against me?"
5704she answered, laughing,"if the thing is the same, what does it matter whether it be expressed in two syllables or in a hundred?"
5704what is more ugly than a wig?
6033Ah, so you are working those slippers for your dear Adolphe?
6033Am I then so very wrong, Adolphe, to have sought to spare you numerous cares?
6033And why should n''t he be hungry? 6033 Annoys me?
6033Are you sick?
6033Can you ask, ungrateful man?
6033Caroline, did n''t you give the necessary orders?
6033Charles? 6033 Come, Adolphe, what have I done?"
6033Come, Caroline, my own Carola, what do you mean to do?
6033Did I tell you that I have a vertigo?
6033Did you find everybody in?
6033Did you take many cabs?
6033Do n''t you feel a heat there, a slight perspiration?
6033Do n''t you find your night- cap moist on your forehead, when you wake up?
6033Do you feel a sensation of heaviness in your knees?
6033Do you feel sick?
6033Do you know her upholsterer?
6033Do you think so? 6033 Does he really want to please his little girly?"
6033Have n''t you been to Madame de Fischtaminel''s?
6033Have you concluded anything?
6033Have you done, dear?
6033Have you patients there?
6033How can I, when I''m asleep?
6033How could he, who is certainly a man of sense, choose--?
6033How do you like it?
6033How is it with you, my dear madame?
6033I, thank heaven, have passed the period; and you?
6033In the evening?
6033In what sense did you understand the word, my dear?
6033Is it for what I said about your stomach, your shape and your digestion? 6033 Is it very dangerous?"
6033It is probable that I wrote them at Paris--"What business was it, Adolphe?
6033No, nothing,"How many persons have you seen?
6033She got into debt, I suppose?
6033So a country house would please you very much, would it, darling?
6033So the nose is an organ, is it?
6033So you are really in love with Madame de Fischtaminel?
6033So you met the upholsterer?
6033Suppose you take the management of the house back again?
6033Take the key of the money- box back,--but do you know what will happen? 6033 Then you confess that a boy ca n''t be sent to school before he is seven years old?"
6033There now, tell me, what will you do?
6033Well, madame,says the great physician,"how happens it that so pretty a woman allows herself to be sick?"
6033Well, what will you do?
6033What attentions?
6033What could I have done? 6033 What do you do with it?"
6033What do you feel?
6033What do you mean?
6033What do you need?
6033What do you think of me, sir?
6033What does it mean?
6033What for?
6033What has the stomach got to do with the nose?
6033What is it, now?
6033What is the matter?
6033What is the spring bed stuffed with?
6033What is there so seductive in the mind or the manners of the spider?
6033What is this venture, madame?
6033What trouble is this?
6033What''s the matter? 6033 What''s the matter?"
6033What''s the matter?
6033What''s the use of replying with reasons that have n''t got an ounce of common- sense?
6033What, are you pouting?
6033What, in that dress?
6033What, not dressed yet, Caroline?
6033What, will you be such a love as to buy me one? 6033 When did you make appointments with them?
6033Where do you feel bad?
6033Where do you put it?
6033Who is it?
6033Why did you not tell me?
6033Why give me pain?
6033Why pout? 6033 Why should I have been there?"
6033Why should hacks be interdicted?
6033Why, what''s the matter, children?
6033Will you have a glass of sugar and water?
6033With too much vermilion?
6033Would you rather ruin the horse?
6033You want me to amuse you by telling you about business?
6033Adolphe often hears Caroline say to Madame Deschars:"How do you manage?"
6033Adolphe reddens; he ca n''t very well beat his wife, and Madame de Fischtaminel looks at him as much as to say,"What does this mean?"
6033Adolphe, very much alarmed, says to himself:"The doctor''s right, she may get to be morbidly exacting, and then what will become of me?
6033After a year of absolute monarchy, Caroline says very mildly one morning:"How much have you spent this year, dear?"
6033Ah, dear me, why did I get married?
6033Am I as pretty as she?"
6033And a good many of them say to themselves, as did Caroline,"How will he manage?"
6033And can the danger be avoided?"
6033And is it really over?
6033Are you in earnest, Adolphe?"
6033But how can I resist the downy creases of my bed?
6033But no, idiot, stupid and indifferent that you are, you ask her,"What is the matter?"
6033But we are answerable for our children, are we not?
6033Can not I have another wife?
6033Can there be another woman like her?
6033Caroline has often said to you,"Adolphe, what is the matter?
6033Did you do your business in a hack?"
6033Do I ever tell you that you are growing fat, that you are getting the color of a stone- cutter, and that I prefer thin and pale men?"
6033Do n''t you see that I was only paying you back for your vermilion?
6033Do we ever know what electric current precipitates the avalanche or decides a revolution?
6033Do you suppose it''s money that I want?
6033Do you understand?
6033Fire?"
6033For you have lost the thread of the discourse, and you fidget nervously with your feet, thinking to yourself,"What is she telling her about me?"
6033Fruit?
6033Have n''t I though?"
6033Have you been in the house a good deal lately?"
6033Here, I see, you stop me to ask,"How are we to find the longitude in this sea?
6033Here, you talk for ten minutes without interruption, and you close with an appealing"Well?"
6033How comes it that I think of nothing but death?
6033How do you lie at night?"
6033How many mattresses are there on your bed?"
6033I got everything ready last night; now you must, my dear; do you want to miss him?
6033I should be delighted to learn how she manages to make her husband love her so much: have they been married long?"
6033If there are yellow rays of light, why should there not be whole days of this extremely matrimonial color?
6033If, on passing your wife, an admirer were gently to press her, accidentally or purposely, would you have the slightest desire to discover his motives?
6033In a quarter of an hour, the main question is blocked by a side discussion on this point:"Has Charles had chilblains or not?"
6033In reply to the sacramental words pronounced by the officer of the customs,"Have you anything to declare?"
6033Is it a disease?
6033Is it a petty or a profound trouble?
6033Is it advantageous for a man not to know what will please his wife after their marriage?
6033Is it proper for a young woman to be left alone, so?
6033Is it still for your sake, or only for herself, or is it for somebody else?
6033Is not the king of Rome the son of the Emperor?
6033Is there a spring bed?"
6033Is this what you want?
6033Is your son more forward than theirs?
6033Made a little counterfeit money, run into debt, or embroidered a sampler?"
6033Make me suffer again, will you?"
6033Must I prepare for death?"
6033Now?
6033On which side?"
6033One day she says to you,"Is there really an affair?"
6033Perhaps you would like a drop of brandy in your sugar and water?
6033Shall I run over the list?
6033She does not know what a Jesuit is: what is a Jesuit?
6033She says,"What is the matter?"
6033Suppose I were to go to- morrow to see Madame de Fischtaminel, do you know what she would say?"
6033The next day she asks you, with a charming air of interest,"How are you coming on with Madame de Fischtaminel?"
6033Then what?
6033Was Madame Schontz anxious about babies, about her bonnet, the lace of which was torn to pieces in the bushes?
6033Well, I declare, you accuse the Empress, do you?
6033What are you thinking of?
6033What do you do with it?
6033What do you mean by"Jesuit?"
6033What do you want?"
6033What do you wear on your head at night?"
6033What have you done with it?"
6033What is a_ Villa Adolphini_ where you get nauseated if you go six times round the lawn?
6033What is life, I should like to know?"
6033What starts the quarrel?
6033What will you do?"
6033When can a husband be sure he has attained this nautical point?
6033Where do you put it?
6033Who perverted them?"
6033Why do n''t you take Monsieur Deschars for a model?"
6033Why?
6033Will it be likely to live?
6033Women hypocritically ask her if she is indisposed and"Why do n''t you dance?"
6033You ask the group collectively,"How do you like it?"
6033You talk for ten minutes more without the slightest interruption, and then you ejaculate another"Well?"
6033You took it by the hour, I suppose?
6033returns Caroline,"what is life to me?"
6033then you_ have_ been there?"
6033where they''ve planted chair- legs and broom- sticks on the pretext of producing shade?
51820''See,''said Pierre,''did your piece have this cross which the sardine- dealer who paid it to me had made on ours?'' 51820 ''What were your feelings there?''
51820''What? 51820 ''Where''s Jacques?''
51820''Will you swear it by your everlasting life?'' 51820 ''You did n''t take your mother''s?''
51820A secret?
51820Am I not sharing your crime?
51820And for the crab?
51820And you come from----?
51820Because he was lively?
51820Brigitte?
51820But how can two people live on twelve sous a day?
51820But what will happen when she is hungry?
51820But why, my dear master?
51820But will anything happen to us if we pass by there?
51820Can you see anything?
51820Did they live happily together?
51820Did you see him?
51820Do you earn a living?
51820Do you ever drink wine?
51820Do you mean to have our heads cut off, you miserable aristocrat?
51820Do you mean to say that you think that beasts are entirely devoid of passions?
51820Do you see that house? 51820 Do you think,"inquired the thunderstruck stranger,"that indirect participation will be punished?
51820Does this little knave belong to you?
51820Doubtless some sentimental reason brings you to Carentan, citizen conscript?
51820Duvivier,asked Monsieur de Merret,"did n''t you buy some crucifixes from the Spaniards who passed through here?"
51820Give it up?
51820Have you ever been away from here?
51820Have you learned anything distressing, or are you ill?
51820Have you no revelations to make to me?
51820How much will you get for the lobster?
51820How old are you?
51820How so?
51820I conceived the idea, and I love you,he said with a sort of contrition;"but am I for that reason a villain?"
51820In his eyes,retorted Gillette, looking earnestly at Poussin and Porbus,"in his eyes am I nothing more than a woman?"
51820Is he a thief, an assassin?
51820Is that a sure sign?
51820Is that all?
51820My dear Madame Lepas,I added, as I concluded,"you evidently know more, eh?
51820No,said one of the old women;"what are our lives compared with that of a priest?"
51820Oh? 51820 Rosalie?"
51820So there is a mystery?
51820Suppose he should be a spy? 51820 Then you do not mean to go with us?"
51820To whom have I the honour of speaking, monsieur?
51820Well, master,said Porbus,"was the ultramarine, that you went to Bruges for, very bad?
51820Well, monsieur,she said,"no doubt Monsieur Regnault has given you his story of La Grande Bretèche?"
51820Well, my poor fellow, how is it that you do n''t try to earn more by carrying salt to the harbour, or by working in the salt marshes?
51820Well, take one day with another, what do you earn?
51820What did he tell you?
51820What fire from heaven has passed this way? 51820 What have you done?"
51820What is it, Brigitte?
51820What is it, monsieur?
51820What is it?
51820What is the matter, my angel?
51820What is there new, pray?
51820What is your name?
51820What mistress?
51820What''s the matter with you, citizeness?
51820What''s the matter?
51820Where are you going to sell your fish?
51820Where have you put--------?
51820Who is Monsieur Regnault?
51820Who is he, pray?
51820Who is that man?
51820Why despair of God, my sisters?
51820Why have I come here, pray?
51820Why so much difference between the lobster and the crab?
51820Why so?
51820Will you go with us?
51820Will you let us have both for a hundred sous?
51820Would it be indiscreet, monsieur,I asked him,"to ask you the reason of this extraordinary state of affairs?"
51820Would you prefer to see me painting another woman?
51820You are not married?
51820You have a wife or a sweetheart?
51820You have been imprudent,said the merchant;"why did you lay in provisions?"
51820You think it is well done, do you?
51820Your comrades must be far behind?
51820Your name?
51820''Are n''t you afraid of him?''
51820''How can you prove it?''
51820''Well, then, what does he do to you?''
51820An excellent office, of which you may have heard?
51820And suppose she should wake?
51820And that hair, does not the light fairly inundate it?
51820And what do you suppose the best paid dressmaker earns?
51820And when somebody else said:''Pierre Cambremer, do you know that your boy put out the little Pougaud girl''s eye?''
51820And you?"
51820But did you never try to question Rosalie?"
51820But do you need this public testimony in order to be assured of the author''s affection?
51820But had those eyes wept?
51820But tell me, Rosalie, why did you go to work in an inn when you left Madame de Merret''s?
51820But what has happened?
51820But would you believe it?
51820But, in that case, what would become of Pauline?
51820Could one hope ever to come to an understanding with that extraordinary passion?
51820Did n''t she leave you some money?"
51820Do not two pure sentiments, which blend, resemble two beautiful voices singing?
51820Do we possess Raphael''s model, Ariosto''s Angelica, or Dante''s Beatrice?
51820Do you expect me now to subject my idol to the insensible glances and absurd criticisms of fools?
51820Do you expect me suddenly to cease to be father, lover, and God?
51820Do you expect me suddenly to lay aside a joy that has lasted ten years, as one lays aside a cloak?
51820Do you hear nothing, Brigitte?
51820Do you know what brought him here?
51820Do you understand?"
51820Does it not seem to you that you could pass your hand over that back?
51820Does she not smile at every stroke of the brush which I give her?
51820Engrossed by all these thoughts, Porbus said to the old man:"But is it not woman for woman?
51820Go back to the house; I shall be happier perhaps than if you----""Do I belong to myself when you speak to me thus?
51820Had that statuelike hand struck its fellow man?
51820Has France been betrayed?"
51820Has God been insulted here?
51820Have I not obtained to perfection the colour, the sharpness of the line which seems to bound the body?
51820Have n''t you been able to grind our new white?
51820Have you been eating up some Arab?
51820Have you been to Merret, monsieur?
51820He did n''t ask him:''What have you been doing?''
51820How can one paint with such things?"
51820I am your friend; tell me, have I spoiled my picture?"
51820If not, why should you have come up here?"
51820Is it not a most simple and natural thing to obey your whims?
51820Is it not the same phenomenon presented by objects in the atmosphere, as well as by fishes in the water?
51820Is not that the way in which the sun, that divine painter of the universe, proceeds?
51820Is the soldier guilty who is ordered to join the shooting- squad?"
51820Is your oil poor, or are your brushes unmanageable?"
51820Monsieur does n''t know Monsieur Regnault?
51820No?
51820No?"
51820Porbus laid his hand on the old man''s shoulder and said, turning to Poussin:"Do you know that we have before us a very great painter?"
51820Shall I dare say, to English readers, that by this fact he belongs to the family of Shakespeare?
51820Suppose it was a conspiracy?
51820Tear away the veil with which I have modestly covered my happiness?
51820Then why did you come up here?--My dear Porbus,"he continued, turning towards the painter;"is it possible that you too would mock at me?
51820To go thither and assume the first place in society-- was it not equivalent to defying the scaffold every day?
51820Was Frenhofer sane or mad?
51820Was it a crocodile?
51820Was it a lion?
51820Was it a tiger?
51820Was it grief, was it repentance, was it insanity, was it a crime, was it----?"
51820Was it not more than a mere ruin?
51820Was she not guarding her son''s treasures at the peril of her life?
51820Well, do you think that that effect did not cost me unheard- of trouble?
51820What do you want with me?"
51820What does it lack?
51820What sort of a man was he?"
51820What tribunal has ordered salt to be strewn upon this dwelling?
51820When Pierre Cambremer came home and found his house furnished with things people had lent his wife, he said:"''What does all this mean?''
51820When she saw me, she said to me:"What is the matter?"
51820Where did he sit?
51820Where is art?
51820Where is the husband, the lover, base enough to lend his wife to dishonour?
51820Where was the granite?
51820Where was the man?
51820Who knows?
51820Why did I think?
51820Why does evil happen?
51820Why the granite in that man?
51820Why was that man among the granite?
51820Will not Poussin abandon his mistress to your eyes?"
51820Will you swear?''
51820You do?''
51820he asked, interrupting himself,"that undiscoverable Venus of the ancients, so often sought, of whom we find only a few scattered charms?
51820he cried at last, in a heartrending voice,"show my creation, my spouse?
51820is she not above all the masterpieces on earth?"
51820mademoiselle-- for you are a good girl, are n''t you?
51820perhaps madame was chilled by her walk?
51820said Porbus,"could n''t you send for a little of your fine Rhine wine for me?"
51820said her husband in a low voice;"do you want to kill madame?"
51820said the old man,"well done?
51820who has ever surprised thee in thy flights?
51820who would not adore her on his knees?
51820who would not have swum into the future?
51820you do love me then?"
51820you want something of me, do you?"
1925Ah, Monseigneur,replied the woman,"who told you that?"
1925Alas, my reverend father,said he, quite unmoved,"will fifteen years be enough to acquit me of so much pleasure?
1925Am I not good at jokes?
1925Am I not worth 20,000 crowns to- night? 1925 And do you often see,"said Blanche,"young women with such old husbands as my lord?"
1925And how?
1925And the fief of Ville Parisis?
1925And the others whose companions are not so old?
1925And the woods?
1925And this little chorus singer is here to offer that?
1925And what is a mystery?
1925And what was it?
1925And when do you play upon this gentle flute?
1925And when should I be in a state of harvest?
1925And why did he kill you, my cousin?
1925And why, my darling? 1925 Are you in your sound senses?
1925Are you not married?
1925Are you sleep?
1925But did you see at the stable the beautiful white mare so much spoken of in Touraine?
1925But have those obtained offspring?
1925But how?
1925But how?
1925But is it to her that you give the contract and the money?
1925But my little paradise, my sweet one,said the other, laughing,"do n''t you see the trick?
1925But shall we find them in flagrante delicto?
1925But,replied she,"this mysterious operation-- cannot it be performed immediately?"
1925By my faith;cried the mother, letting fall her distaff,"do you mean what you say?"
1925By my halidame, what is the matter with me? 1925 By the blood of Christ and the charms of your daughter am I not a gentleman?
1925Did you while coming here see the meadows?
1925Do you hear, Mister Canon?
1925Do you not think the Virgin beautiful?
1925Do you wish it my darling?
1925Eh? 1925 Eh?
1925God preserve you, Madame; what can you have to seek of one so near death, you so young?
1925Has anyone deceived you?
1925He wept?
1925How did you do it?
1925How do you know that?
1925How?
1925I?
1925If it is not yours, it is mine; and the other night did you not tell me you loved everything that came from me?
1925In what language?
1925Is it dirty?
1925Is it not your business to die?
1925Is it so?
1925Is it then very bad?
1925Is it true, my lord, the you have a hungry and relentless creditor?
1925Is your friend coming?
1925It is it not in the breviary, and an evangelical regulation, that you should be equal with God in the valley of Jehoshaphat?
1925Madame,asked the man of quick execution,"this child, is he the fruit of my loins, or those of Savoisy, your lover?"
1925My dear,replied the dear man,"you shall have them without being troubled with me;"and turning her round,"Your client has not told you who I am, eh?
1925Not at all?
1925Of whom were you thinking this morning?
1925Oh, my lord, what could I cook at such a good fire?
1925Oh, oh, do you not know the canons? 1925 So you treat me with disrespect?"
1925Then you are my guardian?
1925Then you are no longer disposed to obey me?
1925Then, my dear, why not have told me so?
1925Then,replied the old hag,"where shall I put it?"
1925Thou dost not tremble, Chiquon, to deny the devil?
1925Was it not a most prudent thing?
1925Was it not necessary to confide you to some defender of your virtue? 1925 Well then,"said she,"can not I perform a mystery?"
1925Well, my darling are we not two?
1925Well, then, what will you give my daughter?
1925Well, there is a paradise for the good; is it not necessary to have a hell for the wicked?
1925What can I do this evening to please you?
1925What chest?
1925What do you mean?
1925What do you please to wish?
1925What do you think of Chiquon?
1925What does this mean?
1925What have you done?
1925What is it ails you?
1925What is it necessary to do for this?
1925What is it?
1925What is it?
1925What is she doing?
1925What is the matter my little one?
1925What is the matter with you, Monsieur le Cardinal?
1925What is the matter?
1925What is the matter?
1925What then affronts you?
1925What want_ you_, little one?
1925What''s the matter?
1925What, have you killed him?
1925What, is it done then?
1925What, my dear, you wish to be a mother?
1925What,said the canon,"are you not a Christian?"
1925What?
1925Whence comes your sadness, sweetheart?
1925Where does he comes from?
1925Where from?
1925Where?
1925Which one?
1925Which?
1925Who is he?
1925Who is it?
1925Who is there?
1925Who then manages the bargain? 1925 Who''s there?"
1925Who?
1925Why then, if he is so ticklish in this manner, has he placed you here?
1925Why? 1925 Why?"
1925Wilt thou have a dispensation in articulo mortis? 1925 Would you have believed me in the bestial passion you were in?"
1925Yes, but will not the count recognise the wretch?
1925Yes,said the advocate,"the cause is heard-- now shall it be the thread or the iron?"
1925You can see from here,replied the lord,"the house of La Tourbelliere, where lived my poor huntsmen Pillegrain, who was ripped up by a boar?"
1925Ah, you sing out now, do you?
1925Ah, you want your money now, do you?
1925Am I a woman to keep chests full of friends?
1925And the reason?
1925And what is a high toby?
1925And what then was a castle without a chatelaine?
1925Are you come home mad to mix up your friends with your chests?
1925Are you comfortable?"
1925Are you getting dim- sighted?
1925Are you?"
1925But how can I blame them for their essays, changes, and contradictory aims?
1925Denys?"
1925Do the meal times suit you?
1925Do you hear the varlets and the serving maids?"
1925Do you know if ice is really cold?
1925Do you mean it?"
1925Do you not recognise my voice?
1925Do you understand now?
1925Do you understand?
1925Does he wish to die?
1925Dost thou know page of darkness, that for this thou wilt burn through all eternity?
1925Eh?
1925For a simple numskull of a shepherd are so many words necessary?
1925Have you not transgressed the ordinances of the Church?"
1925He stuffed them with green peas, returning to the hotch- potch, praising the plums, commending the fish, saying to one,"Why do you not eat?"
1925How long have friends been kept in chests?
1925How many words does it require to burst open the lid of your understanding?
1925How?"
1925If this folly bites and pricks me, and slays my virtue, will God, who has placed this great love in my body, condemn me to perdition?"
1925If you had here a wicked man who turned everything upside down; would you not kick him out of doors?"
1925Is it night?"
1925Is it not silly thus to seal this science from maidens?
1925Is it she also?"
1925Is it wrong?"
1925Is not my word good enough?"
1925Is one a lady without progeny?
1925Is that overpaid with a castle in Brie?"
1925Is the usual to put friends in chests?
1925Madame: why tell him?
1925No?
1925Now if you asked me in what consists, or where comes in, the moral of this tale?
1925Now, do you understand?
1925Now, what will the abbot say?
1925Observing which, the Sire de Lannoy said to him, with courtly innocence--"If you are her husband, is that any reason you should stop her passage?"
1925One must love well to love like that, eh?
1925Shall I accompany thee?
1925So many men die in war for nothing, can not this one die for something?
1925Sometimes she would reply to the gentle request of her master,"When you have taken it from me will you give it me back again?"
1925The cardinal asked which was the most precious thing to a lady; the first or the last kiss?
1925The constable scratched his ear and replied--"But how came Savoisy with the key of the postern?"
1925The poor Tourainian, more dead than alive, and expecting the devil was about to interfere seriously with his arrangements, rose and said,"What is it?"
1925The poor little Tourainian in despair murmured,"May I come back when your passion is over?"
1925Then he got close to the door, and heard a little voice--"Are you there?"
1925Then the cardinal smiled, believing it was all to his advantage: was not he a cunning fellow?
1925Then the hunchback said aloud--"How do you mean, it is not I?
1925Then why was he a Huguenot before the others?
1925Then, seeing their uncle laughing, they said to him--"If you will make a will, to whom will you leave the house?
1925There, now do you say that I am a blockhead, an animal?"
1925Thereupon Blanche scratched her ear, and having thought to herself for a little while, she said to the priest,"How then did the Virgin Mary?"
1925This bold endeavour brought Madame to her feet and drawing the king''s dagger,"What would you with me?"
1925Was n''t it necessary to be get rid of that old bullock of Coire?"
1925Well, what is that?
1925What did she mean, that fool of a Bruyette?
1925What is that?
1925What is that?"
1925What was La Beaupertuys about to ask such a case of diarrhoea here?"
1925What will become of your name and your fiefs and your seigniories?
1925What will my lord say?
1925When they were gone, and Nicole said boldly to the king,"Sire will you let me try?"
1925Where am I?
1925Where do you see a chest?
1925Who does not love the warm attack of life when it flows thus round the heart and engulfs everything?
1925Who was astonished?
1925Will you sup?"
1925Wilt thou have my fortune-- or better still, a bit of the veritable true Cross?--Wilt thou?"
1925Wilt thou not be a lovely widow?
1925Wilt thou take charge of my wife, defend her against all, be her guide, keep her in check and answer to me for the integrity of my head?
1925Wouldst thou kill the father of thy children?"
1925Your pleasure will be my death, and then you''ll canonise me perhaps?
1925and dost thou know what it is to lose forever the heaven above for a perishable and changeful moment here below?
1925and why?"
1925and"Curses am I not her husband?"
1925are you all right?"
1925asked Dunois,"to keep a grave face before six thousand crowns?"
1925but the Protestants?"
1925is it then a king that we are going to settle?
1925little one,"cried the good man,"why did you make so much fuss that we only came to an understanding close to Azay?"
1925meaning to say,"Why did not death take me in his place?"
1925my fair one, am I not worthy to be Pope, and better than that, thy lover this evening?"
1925my father, is it then the will of God that I should die, or that from wise and sound comprehension my brain should be turned?
1925replied Lavalliere,"my hurt is curable; but into what a predicament have you fallen?
1925replied he in great fear;"are you not a wife?"
1925said Chiquon, whom the Mau- cinge had just recognised,"is that all?
1925said Chiquon,"my dear Uncle, are you out of your senses?
1925said La Beaupertuys,"you will not have him hanged again?
1925said he,"am I a simple clerk?"
1925said madame,"what has happened?
1925said she, with an air of disdain,"do you not know, you who knows everything, that that which is plucked dies and discolours?"
1925said she,"there is more certainty then with one like the seneschal?"
1925said she,"to be a perfect countess, and have in my loins a little count, must I play the great lady?
1925what do you say to them?
1925you will not kill me?"
8079( Aloud) Nevertheless, monsieur, you must sometimes need the services of others?
8079( Aloud) Sir, is there any hope of saving our poor M. Jules?
8079( Aloud) What are you thinking about?
8079( Aloud) Who are they?
8079( Aloud) You are very much interested in my client, monsieur?
8079( Aside) Poor boy, will his life be saved?
8079( Then turning to Jules) Will you make her happy?
8079( To Jules) Do you know where M. de Verby is?
8079( To Justine) Give me something to drink, will you?
8079--Doubtless you are acquainted with the evidence in this case?
8079--What would you answer?
8079Ah!--That is the secret of your coldness, and he is-- The sheriff( to the officer of the police) This does not seem to be the man?
8079All Does she consent?
8079All Whatever can be the matter?
8079All three What has happened?
8079And do you think I am going to let Pamela, whom I have loved and have wished to make my wife, say all that?
8079And now what are you waiting for?
8079And that I would embrace you?
8079Antoine Is there any other way?
8079But am I not to get something out of all this?
8079But do you see that window there?
8079But one-- Pamela Well, what of it?
8079But what compensation do you offer her if she restores your son to you at the sacrifice of her honor?
8079Can one feel any obligation towards them?
8079Can this be you, on whom we have placed all our hopes?
8079De Verby And what do you think of the affair?
8079De Verby And what of patriotism, monsieur?
8079De Verby But you are sometimes sick?
8079De Verby Do you ever take up a case without charging anything?
8079De Verby I suppose I may rely upon you for assistance?
8079De Verby I understand that you are rich?
8079De Verby I?
8079De Verby Is that your advice?
8079De Verby It is then from conviction, I suppose, that you have undertaken the defence of young Rousseau?
8079De Verby Tell me, how much do you ask for the sacrifice required of you?
8079De Verby What do you mean, sir?
8079De Verby What is to be done?
8079De Verby What then is to be done?
8079De Verby( anxiously) I presume there is no other way of escape for him?
8079De Verby( aside) How is it possible to influence such a man?
8079De Verby( in a troubled voice) But-- can''t we find some other method?
8079De Verby( interrupting him) But suppose that we wish her to be guilty?
8079De Verby( somewhat discouraged) And so you take Jules Rousseau for a young enthusiast?
8079De Verby( to Giraud and his wife) Yes, suppose it were necessary to testify against your daughter, by alleging this?
8079De Verby( to Rousseau and the women) If it should be necessary to appeal the case( pointing to Pamela), could we count upon her?
8079De Verby( to Rousseau) Have you good news?
8079Did I not tell you so?
8079Do n''t you hear him?
8079Do you know the proverb--"A lawyer who talks to himself is like a pastry cook who eats his own wares,"--eh, sir?
8079Do you really wish to add to the debt?
8079Do you think if it were otherwise that we would stay near you?
8079Do you think that while he is here, your presence can be anything but disagreeable to us?
8079Do you wish to have a lawsuit about it?
8079Does that astonish you?
8079Dupre And he gave you twenty thousand francs?
8079Dupre And on what condition?
8079Dupre And the other?
8079Dupre And you, sir, I thought you were at Brussels?
8079Dupre Are you crazy?
8079Dupre Are you satisfied with me?
8079Dupre Dear child, does your heart feel no bitterness against them?
8079Dupre Did you hear them talk politics?
8079Dupre Do n''t attempt to deceive me, but tell me how you managed to gain this bad influence over him?
8079Dupre Do you ask such a question of me?
8079Dupre How is this?
8079Dupre How is this?
8079Dupre I perceive that you are very fond of your young master?
8079Dupre I understand you to say that Pamela is in love with M. Jules?
8079Dupre If you are caught in contradicting yourself and convicted of perjury, do you know what you run the risk of?
8079Dupre Is she pretty?
8079Dupre Pamela?
8079Dupre Refused what?
8079Dupre They used frequently to meet I suppose?
8079Dupre Well, what is it?
8079Dupre What connection has Pamela Giraud with Jules Rousseau?
8079Dupre What do you expect to do?
8079Dupre What do you want?
8079Dupre What is the matter?
8079Dupre What is your object in speaking to me in this way?
8079Dupre What would you do to save him?
8079Dupre Who were with him?
8079Dupre Why should you wonder at this?
8079Dupre Without doubt some powerful motive brought you here?
8079Dupre Would you have behaved any better?
8079Dupre You are in love with this fine young man, this Joseph?
8079Dupre You have been able to effect his ruin, and can you not bring about his release?
8079Dupre You have never loved any one before?
8079Dupre You would prefer to serve him without compromising yourself?
8079Dupre( looking at the card with great surprise) How is this?
8079Dupre( looking at them) What sum of money must I offer to the daughter, to the father and to the mother?
8079Dupre( quickly) Whom?
8079Dupre( restraining Pamela) You are not in love with this Binet, are you?
8079Dupre( stopping, addresses Giraud) Did you take your usual precautions in coming here this morning?
8079Dupre( to Rousseau) And what decision have you made, sir?
8079Dupre( turning towards Pamela, after the departure of Jules) Must he come back again?
8079Giraud And you, sir, who are you?
8079Giraud At once?
8079Giraud But why not tell us?
8079Giraud Can it be possible?
8079Giraud Could any one help loving you?
8079Giraud Sir, what right have you to enter an occupied dwelling-- the domicile of a peaceable young girl?
8079Giraud There is nobody here, is there, my love?
8079Giraud What did I tell you on the stairs, Madame Giraud?
8079Giraud( leading Giraud up to Pamela) Did you hear that?
8079Giraud( with vehemence) How was that, madame?
8079Giraud?
8079Has she not well deserved it?
8079Have such men any honor?
8079Have you any regard for the safety of your neck?
8079Have you anything to do with it, mademoiselle?
8079He came to see me for love, I received him from friendship, and I resisted him from a sense of duty-- Dupre And at last?
8079How dare you to affront my dignity in this way?
8079How much-- I ask-- for saving Jules?
8079I have heard everything-- and do you believe that I am going to put up with that?
8079I have spent my life as an honest man, and will finish it as such; will you be my wife?
8079I thought you would be coming here, and I waited for you-- Dupre What do you want with me?
8079I used to say to myself: shall I ever be like that?
8079If I did otherwise, I should be destitute of self- respect, I should prove myself a soulless coward.--After that, is there any hope for me?
8079If necessary, to forfeit everything for her, and under God''s protection to say to her,"Pamela, will you be mine?"
8079Is it not so, my child, you would not deceive your father?
8079Is it not so?
8079Is it possible that I, whose conduct and principles have won the esteem of all, should be involved in all this trouble?
8079Is n''t it a pity that we servants can not learn, excepting through the papers, what is going on in the trial of M. Jules?
8079Is she at liberty?
8079Is she safe?
8079Joseph Alone, with a man''s voice?
8079Joseph And did n''t I do well?
8079Joseph And if I go away-- Will you love me a little?
8079Joseph And if I never came back?
8079Joseph And not hear what you say about me?
8079Joseph And what must my feelings have been?
8079Joseph Are you a--?
8079Joseph But what has happened to you in the last eight or ten days, my dear little pet of a Pamela?
8079Joseph But what is it they want?
8079Joseph Is it necessary to become an emperor, or something like that, in order to marry a flower- maker?
8079Joseph My object?
8079Joseph The son of the rich M. Rousseau, whose house we are furnishing?
8079Joseph What can I do for you?
8079Joseph What can he have done?
8079Joseph What did you say?
8079Joseph What sacrifice?
8079Joseph What''s the matter?
8079Joseph Yes, what right have you--?
8079Joseph You do not wish, then, that I should express how much I love you?
8079Joseph( returning) Are you alone, mademoiselle?
8079Joseph( to Pamela) Well, and what of you?
8079Jules But you promise me?
8079Jules Can it be possible?
8079Jules He is coming back-- Where can I hide?
8079Jules Mother, do you answer them, and show yourself on my side?
8079Jules We will never part again?
8079Jules What are my plans?
8079Jules You shall see-- Pamela Are you in your right senses, M. Adolph?
8079Jules( in great astonishment) You?
8079Justine Well, Antoine, have you read the papers?
8079May I know the object of this visit?
8079My daughter is our sole treasure, the glory of our old age, and you ask us to dishonor her?
8079Pamela Bit what are you looking for?
8079Pamela But what can we do about it, sir?
8079Pamela Do you mean it?
8079Pamela Giraud, who are you that you should be so high and mighty?
8079Pamela Giraud?
8079Pamela I suppose you do n''t believe me?
8079Pamela M. Adolph, are you innocent?
8079Pamela M. Binet, what are you doing here?
8079Pamela No; for are not you here?
8079Pamela Then what is the meaning of all these reproaches?
8079Pamela Well?
8079Pamela What do you mean, sir?
8079Pamela What do you mean?
8079Pamela What shall we do?
8079Pamela You, madame?
8079Pamela( anxiously) At last?
8079Pamela( in consternation) What do you mean?
8079Pamela( much moved) I, sir?
8079Pamela, where did you get them?
8079Put the question to your own heart-- and answer yes or no-- Will you be my wife?
8079Really?
8079Rich as you are, rich as your son will be, what fairer task have you to perform than that of satisfying your conscience?
8079Rousseau And he( pointing to Binet), did he carry out the threat he made to us?
8079Rousseau And how is Jules?
8079Rousseau But what do you fear?
8079Rousseau But with regard to this good girl, this admirable Pamela-- what must we do for her?
8079Rousseau Do you question the extent of my gratitude?
8079Rousseau Has anything happened?
8079Rousseau Has my poor Jules made any admissions?
8079Rousseau In my power?
8079Rousseau Is he acquitted?
8079Rousseau On her?
8079Rousseau Sister, will you go with me?
8079Rousseau Tell me, you who have shown yourself so good, so generous,--if we should still have need of your unselfish aid, would you be ready?
8079Rousseau Well, Justine, do you see anything?
8079Rousseau What did he say?
8079Rousseau What do you mean?
8079Rousseau What do you think?
8079Rousseau What must we do?
8079Rousseau( with excitement) Well, why not?
8079Since her arrest as a perjurer, how do things go on?
8079Tell me?
8079Then the presiding judge asks you"How long have you known the prisoner, Rousseau?"
8079Then this gentleman must be his father?
8079To Joseph) To arrest you?
8079We are quite alone here?
8079Were you pursued by any one?
8079What are you doing in this place?
8079What are your plans?
8079What can I do?
8079What did the jury say?
8079What do you take me for?
8079What do you take us for?
8079What do you want?
8079What has become of Pamela?
8079What has become of that girl?
8079What is going to happen?
8079What is the matter?
8079What is the meaning of this mysterious preamble?
8079What?
8079Why do you want to take me to England?
8079Why should I, senior apprentice with M. Morel, instead of aiming at setting up business for myself, fall in love with this young lady?
8079Will we, mother?
8079Would that be sufficient to save him?
8079Would you advise your client to betray--?
8079Would you be satisfied if he was merely transported?
8079You are General Vicomte de Verby, I presume?
8079You are not afraid, are you?
8079You here?
8079You love him, Pamela; I understand what it would cost you to-- Pamela To avow my love for him?
8079Your brother?
8079du Brocard And so this harrowing affair has broken out afresh?
8079du Brocard And you, good people, are her father and mother?
8079du Brocard Are they poor?
8079du Brocard How can that be?
8079du Brocard One moment; you said, whom he pleased?
8079du Brocard What do you ask?
8079du Brocard What do you mean by that?
8079du Brocard You have then made up your mind?
8079du Brocard tries to restrain her) Ah, sir, but what of her honor?
8079du Brocard( peering cautiously) It is my brother- in- law Rousseau-- What is he up to now?
8079du Brocard( to Rousseau) How has all this come about?
8079du Brocard) Tell me now, was n''t something promised to me?
8079du Brocard) What has she promised?
8079she has a father and mother living then?
8079sir, what can you mean?
8079what is this?
8079you wo n''t send me away now, will you?
14246( Aloud) And so it seems I am to be murdered by my best friend?
14246( Aloud) Come, now, young man, what are you going to do?
14246( Aloud) Have you any debts?
14246( Aloud) We hope that you and your friend M. de la Brive will do us the pleasure of accepting our invitation to dine without ceremony?
14246( In a low voice) Come, tell me-- can you hold out much longer?
14246( Looking at the notes) What is all this about?
14246( To Minard) You desire her for your wife?
14246( in a low voice to him) I suppose in drafts?
14246Am I no longer Julie to you?
14246Am I not superior to my creditors?
14246And I myself-- Mercadet Were you thinking about having me arrested?
14246And are the forty- seven thousand francs of these vouchers actually worth forty- seven thousand francs?
14246And do n''t you recollect our party at Rambouillet, where I fought an officer of the Guard on your account?
14246And shall we have a fine dinner, Virginie?
14246And what of the ideal, and your love for my daughter?
14246And with whom, pray?
14246And you are going to lock me up?
14246And your marshes, sir?
14246Are those gentlemen in yellow gloves, with fine flowered waistcoats, going to marry mademoiselle?
14246Are you going to work for four, instead of working for only two?
14246But in politics, my dear fellow, a man wins everything and attains to everything by means of a single phrase-- Mericourt What is that?
14246But what do you wish?
14246But what purpose would you apply them to?
14246But who will make a living for us, her father and mother?
14246By the bye, on what vessel did our friend Godeau say he arrived?
14246Can I believe it?
14246Can it be you who speak to me in this strain?
14246Can you find any relation who is as anxious as they are to see me wealthy and rich?
14246Can you possibly conclude matters to- day?
14246De la Brive Am I not the landed proprietor of La Brive?
14246De la Brive And you have had them since this morning?
14246De la Brive Are they signed to the order of Pierquin?
14246De la Brive By what entrance?
14246De la Brive How is that?
14246De la Brive How is this?
14246De la Brive How much time?
14246De la Brive I am not required to be anything but be-- very clever?
14246De la Brive In the use of the pistol or the sword?
14246De la Brive In what particular?
14246De la Brive Madame?
14246De la Brive Mademoiselle--( offers her his arm) Julie( aside) He is handsome, he is rich-- why does he choose me?
14246De la Brive May I be permitted to hope, mademoiselle, that you will look favorably upon me?
14246De la Brive On what conditions?
14246De la Brive Prove my salvation?
14246De la Brive Really?
14246De la Brive Ten thousand francs?
14246De la Brive What are the terms of our copartnership?
14246De la Brive What is it you propose?
14246De la Brive Who?
14246De la Brive Whose health-- Mercadet( trembling) Is-- is-- delicate?
14246De la Brive You must not take it in bad part, sir, if I, on my part, ask you-- Mercadet The amount of my daughter''s fortune?
14246De la Brive You wish to speak with me, my dear father- in- law?
14246Did I not say that I had debts?
14246Did you expect, madame, to find a M. Minard reigning in the heart of your daughter?
14246Do n''t you recollect the good old time when we swore to be friends always through thick and thin?
14246Do you know her name?
14246Do you know why the dramas that have criminals for their heroes are so popular?
14246Do you wish to slay a whole family?
14246Eh?
14246Every one of them?
14246Goulard And what is your friend''s name?
14246Goulard Can it be true?
14246Goulard Eh?
14246Goulard Gentlemen, we have quite made up our minds, have we not?
14246Goulard Have any stockholders sold out?
14246Goulard Mercadet!--Are you talking about the Basse- Indre mines?
14246Goulard Ruin?
14246Goulard( anxiously) How?--You-- that of course is possible-- but-- but-- me?
14246Goulard( in a low voice to the others) Unless this is some fresh trick to gain time and ridicule us-- Pierquin( aloud) Do you think it might be?
14246Goulard( in a tone of self- reproach) Mercadet!--my dear Mercadet!--But is it actually true?
14246Goulard( mechanically taking his pen) Write-- write what?
14246Goulard( rising to his feet) He has returned?
14246Goulard( sitting down) All my Basse- Indre?
14246Goulard( turning back) Me?--To save me-- from what?
14246Happy children!--You are absolutely in love?
14246Have you mentioned the thousand crowns?
14246Have you thought about that?
14246He is away?"
14246He worships my daughter; but what could I do?
14246How can she marry?
14246How did you get on, Therese, with the milliners and dressmakers?
14246How is it that you are going to see a man like Bredif?
14246How long are you going to put me off?
14246How much are you going to pay the young man?
14246How-- how have you been paid?
14246I beg your pardon, M. Minard, but what brings you here?
14246I see that you do n''t know what has happened?
14246I understand perfectly-- I suppose it is about fifty thousand you owe?
14246In spite of our love, in spite of all you have confided to me?
14246Is it not so?
14246Is it true then that I am little thought of on''Change?
14246Is not this M. Minard that under clerk of mine?
14246Is this the way in which you are going to act with the hope of bending my father?
14246Is your estate mortgaged?
14246It is on their account that I make this request to you, sir; can I count on you?
14246It is you, is it, Verdelin-- and you are come to dinner?
14246Julie How can you say such sad words to me?
14246Julie M. Minard has then spoken to you, father?
14246Julie Must I remain here, father?
14246Julie What have you got to say, Adolphe?
14246Julie What is the matter, father?
14246Julie Who can be more flattered than I am, sir, to find that I have attracted your attention?
14246Julie( answering him) What would you wish me to say to a dandy whom I have just seen for the first time, and whom you destine for my husband?
14246Justin Did you call, sir?
14246Justin These-- these people?-- Therese and Virginie These people?
14246Justin( entering) M. Goulard wishes to know if it is true that you desire to see him?
14246Justin( from the back of the stage) Sir-- Mercadet What is it-- what do you want, Justin?
14246May I ask your political leaning?
14246Mercadet Already?
14246Mercadet And do you mean to tell me that you gentlemen are come to force me into bankruptcy?
14246Mercadet And he refused to give them to you?
14246Mercadet And it is situated?
14246Mercadet And it is worth?
14246Mercadet And of what does it consist?
14246Mercadet And the tradespeople?
14246Mercadet And what have you told him?
14246Mercadet And what of Pierquin?
14246Mercadet And would you marry the daughter of a bankrupt?
14246Mercadet And you had the skill to effect that?
14246Mercadet But will Cupid shoot you bank coupons at the end of his arrows?
14246Mercadet By what vessel?
14246Mercadet Collateral?
14246Mercadet Despair?
14246Mercadet Do about it?
14246Mercadet Do n''t they now belong to the family?
14246Mercadet Do n''t you believe it?
14246Mercadet Do you feel that you have the genius to maintain yourself in style at the height to which you aspire?
14246Mercadet Do you love him?
14246Mercadet Do you mean to contradict me again, sir?
14246Mercadet Do you think so?
14246Mercadet Does he love you?
14246Mercadet From the Indies?
14246Mercadet His name?
14246Mercadet How can you count on your creditors for that?
14246Mercadet How can you order them when you do n''t pay them?
14246Mercadet How do you do that?
14246Mercadet How is this, my dear?
14246Mercadet I suppose that your friend Adolphe thinks that we are rich?
14246Mercadet I?
14246Mercadet In bank- notes?
14246Mercadet In spite of all obstacles?
14246Mercadet In the same way?
14246Mercadet Is n''t there need of it for the dresses which they are sending to you, and for the trousseau which I am giving?
14246Mercadet Is that the cause of your despair?
14246Mercadet Is that the letter you sent by Justin?
14246Mercadet Is there any doubt about it?
14246Mercadet Is there any truth in what you just now said?
14246Mercadet Justin, have you executed the commissions I gave you?
14246Mercadet M. Verdelin, listen to us-- Verdelin( to Julie) You do n''t know what he is asking, do you?
14246Mercadet M. de Mericourt, will you come and see the picture which we are going to raffle off for the benefit of the poor orphans?
14246Mercadet My dear, suppose he loves her?
14246Mercadet Of the law?
14246Mercadet Paid?
14246Mercadet Paid?
14246Mercadet Passionately?
14246Mercadet Put you off?
14246Mercadet Sir, are you in love with my daughter?
14246Mercadet Sir, my future son- in- law, M. de la Brive, is a young man-- Pierquin So that there is a real young man in the case?
14246Mercadet The man I allude to, who buys in secret for fear of causing a rise, wants to get three hundred shares; do you happen to have three hundred?
14246Mercadet Well, M. Minard, and what brings you here?
14246Mercadet Well, what do you think of five years in debtors''prison?
14246Mercadet What Godeau?
14246Mercadet What about this note to Delannoy?
14246Mercadet What can he want with me?
14246Mercadet What did my friend Verdelin say?
14246Mercadet What have we got to do with tradespeople that wo n''t take our trade?
14246Mercadet What is this?
14246Mercadet What on earth is the matter with you, my dear?
14246Mercadet What, then, do you mean?
14246Mercadet Where does Michonnin live?
14246Mercadet Who told you that?
14246Mercadet Who?
14246Mercadet Without a break?
14246Mercadet You are well acquainted with M. de la Brive, are you not?
14246Mercadet You have actually ordered them to be admitted?
14246Mercadet You have vineyards, then?
14246Mercadet You mean to tell me that you still wish to marry her?
14246Mercadet( aside) How can I tell her?
14246Mercadet( aside) Is he going to hatch some plot against his creditors?
14246Mercadet( despairingly) And you have written that to Pierquin?
14246Mercadet( haughtily) Will that satisfy you, M. Pierquin?
14246Mercadet( leading Pierquin to the front of the stage without perceiving Verdelin) Is it all right?
14246Mercadet( low) Pierquin?
14246Mercadet( on the sofa) Are you seriously in love with my daughter?
14246Mercadet( pricking up his ears) An-- old aunt--?
14246Mercadet( rising from his seat) Is it true?
14246Mercadet( somewhat abashed) What does he mean?
14246Mercadet( standing before the fireplace) Do you think that I possess the plates for striking off Bank of France notes?
14246Mercadet( supporting himself half- dazed against the table) What do you think?
14246Mercadet( taking a seat) What is the matter with you?
14246Mercadet( to Virginie) Has madame given you any orders?
14246Mercadet( trembling) And you-- have brought me-- a few-- bank- notes?
14246Mercadet?
14246Mercadet?
14246Mericourt But you are not going to lose the dandy''s self- possession?
14246Mericourt Did I not tell you as much?
14246Mericourt Mercadet is an astute man; he will question you about your fortune; are you prepared?
14246Mericourt So you have quite made up your mind?
14246Mericourt What difference does it make?
14246Mericourt What of the gaming table?
14246Mericourt Without reckoning my account, what is the amount of your debts?
14246Mericourt( to De la Brive) Are you satisfied?
14246Minard A few bank- notes?
14246Minard Can it be possible?
14246Minard Did not I say, M. Godeau?
14246Minard Did you say that M. Mercadet wished to speak with me?
14246Minard Sir-- I-- Julie Father-- it is-- Mercadet Are you come to ask again for my daughter?
14246Minard What do you mean?
14246Minard What does that mean?
14246Minard What has taken place?
14246Minard What is this, sir?
14246Minard You have n''t yet paid anything?
14246Minard You have never been in love, I suppose?
14246Minard( in a low voice to Mercadet) Is this sufficient, sir?
14246Minard( in great distress) But what do you ask me to do?
14246Moreover, I may deny everything-- What proofs have you?
14246Must I confess it to you?
14246Not be my wife?
14246Now, look here, you have n''t got a single sou, and you know it; what is going to become of you a week after your marriage?
14246Perhaps sooner-- All How is that?
14246Pierquin Do you want to issue a writ?
14246Pierquin Have you spoken to him?
14246Pierquin Returned from where?
14246Pierquin To- morrow?
14246Pierquin What can I do for you?
14246Pierquin What does he mean?
14246So I may count upon you for dinner, and you give me your word of honor that you will send me-- Verdelin The plate?
14246Therese Is it possible that they could pretend to conceal from us the condition of their affairs?
14246Therese and Virginie Who is the man he thinks of?
14246Three hundred thousand-- where did you get them?
14246To dominate men of mind by the power of capital and superiority of intellect?
14246Verdelin And this gentleman is your son- in- law?
14246Verdelin But tell me what you want with me?
14246Verdelin But where are your troops?
14246Verdelin Do you mean to say that you did n''t know it after all?
14246Verdelin Have you seen him?
14246Verdelin Hush, Mercadet, can this be true?
14246Verdelin I''m only repeating what you said yesterday-- Mercadet What I said?
14246Verdelin What is he talking about?
14246Verdelin What is the matter with you?
14246Verdelin( after a short silence) But-- Have you really found a son- in- law?
14246Verdelin( rising from his seat) And you expect that he will bring thirty thousand francs?
14246Violette And the balance, the other twelve thousand-- Verdelin Yes-- the balance?
14246Violette But say-- why could n''t I--?
14246Violette Mercadet, you are expecting Godeau, are n''t you?
14246Violette Pavement?
14246Violette Really?
14246Violette What have I been saying?
14246Violette What was?
14246Violette Who has returned?
14246Violette You mean that you have no offer to make?
14246Virginie And how shall I pay those that I am giving up?
14246Virginie Who are middle- class people?
14246Virginie( her basket on her arm) Honestly, do you think that?
14246Virginie, and you, M. Justin, why did n''t you come in?
14246We shall doubtless be in need of your discretion-- for we can depend upon you, can we not?
14246What answer have you given him?
14246What are you going to do when a certain definite knowledge becomes necessary?
14246What are you saying?
14246What do you want with me?
14246What is doing now?
14246What is the amount of your land?
14246What is the matter?
14246What man is there who does not owe his father his existence?
14246What proof have you that he loves you?
14246When disorder is well arranged it can be relieved and controlled-- What can a debtor say when he sees his debt entered up under his number?
14246When does he return?"
14246Which Godeau?
14246Who is he?
14246Who?
14246Why did you not tell me?
14246Why do you wish to recover this paper?
14246Why should I not love mademoiselle?
14246Wo n''t you take them into the drawing- room?
14246Would you let the companion of your daughter pine away with despair?
14246Yet who can reproach me?
14246You have settled everything with my father, have you not?
14246You refuse it?
14246You said, Michonnin, of Ermont, in the neighborhood of Bordeaux?
14246You say?
14246You''ve all made up your mind, I suppose?
14246You, Mercadet, whom I have known so rich?
14246sir, how can you stoop to such a thing as this?
14246when shall I be so rich and powerful that I may make him repent of a favor done so grudgingly?
7950/I do not love you/?
7950Am I red, Josette?
7950And do I not play my man''s part well?
7950And have I not a passport in due form?
7950And how have you done so much for me, monsieur? 7950 And the evidence is still to be taken, and the Court had not given its decision?"
7950And what are they?
7950And whose should they be?
7950And yet, as nothing prevents me from marrying to- morrow if I choose, His will can be destroyed by mine?
7950Are you all out of your minds here?
7950Are you happy?
7950Are you married?
7950Are you putting them in order, my dear boy? 7950 Besides, it may be one of those lies which the Church permits as necessary--""Can she be as Suzanne says she is?"
7950But Penelope?
7950But has not M. le President just said something prejudicing a case which depends on the examination of the prisoner?
7950But if the Church is right, and all the world were good Catholics, would n''t the human race come to an end, uncle?
7950But what if there is?
7950But whom can one trust?
7950But why is du Croisier proceeding against him if the amount was paid in beforehand?
7950But why should I say more? 7950 But, Suzanne, are you sure?"
7950Can my false front be crooked?
7950Can not they slander you in whispers, and procure your dismissal?
7950Can you suppose that the Court of First Instance will be influenced by considerations which have nothing to do with justice?
7950Can you think of it? 7950 Come here and help me to soften your dear husband, madame?"
7950Could you doubt it?
7950Did I not tell you, dear, that they would play you some ugly trick? 7950 Do n''t you understand me?"
7950Do you really expect to live in the fifteenth century when the rest of the world has reached the nineteenth? 7950 Do you suppose du Bousquier would marry her?"
7950Do you think so?
7950Does Mademoiselle Cormon know of it?
7950Does n''t mademoiselle know history?
7950Du Bousquier?
7950Has he been indulging in some new escapade?
7950Has the gentleman arrived?
7950Have any steps been taken since the warrant of arrest was issued?
7950Have you been at your old tricks, Chesnel?
7950Have you made the charge?
7950He sits up late, and for what? 7950 He will not be compromised, will he?"
7950How could it be otherwise? 7950 How do you know this when I do not?"
7950How is it that you did not guess it, so clever as you are? 7950 How much did he win?"
7950How much more reality do you want?
7950How so?
7950I have come to tell you something which may perhaps give you as much pleasure as pain?
7950Idiot that I am,thought Chesnel,"why did I shrink from a lie to such a man?"
7950If he is left without resources, what will he do?
7950If the Comtesse d''Esgrignon were one du Croisier''s niece, for instance, would you receive her?
7950In spite of my harshness?
7950Is he in close custody?
7950Is he rich?
7950Is he safe?
7950Is it anything about Cesarine?
7950Is it not a sacred mission to open the people''s eyes?
7950Is that all?
7950Is the house on fire, Brigitte?
7950Is there any hope of getting him away from that woman, that Duchess? 7950 It will be a lie, will it not?"
7950Kill myself?
7950Madame,he stammered out,"what deposition is this that you made before the magistrate?
7950Mademoiselle Cormon? 7950 Mariette, did you steep them in gravy instead of soup- stock?
7950Mariette, what provisions have you in the house?
7950Monsieur l''abbe? 7950 Monsieur le vicomte has come, I am told, to settle in Alencon?"
7950More? 7950 My good Chesnel,"said the Count, when they began to talk of business,"what are your hundred thousand francs in such a position as mine?
7950Of your old household servant? 7950 Oh, the gentleman is a horticulturist, is he?"
7950Oh, where is the chevalier to explain it to me? 7950 Ought you not,"he continued,"to use the influence you have over his mother and over himself by saving him from perdition?
7950Perhaps I might get into Chesnel''s house without being seen if we timed ourselves to arrive in the middle of the night?
7950Perhaps,replied the Duchess;"but the King, beyond all doubt, would be very glad to see her.--So you do not know what is going on in the world?"
7950Quesaco, my charmer?
7950So this is what you have been brooding?
7950Suzanne, what the devil must I do? 7950 That you will take upon yourself to--""What?"
7950That young d''Esgrignon will go far, will he not?
7950The bishop''s room? 7950 Then am I going to see a man called Camusot?"
7950Then if I remain unmarried,--supposing that I do,--God wills it?
7950Then we must have no secrets from her?
7950Then why did you say nothing to me about it?
7950Then you do not know the Duchess''position?
7950Then, have you got hold of the boy?
7950True; and do n''t you know there are three hundred and sixty- five days a year? 7950 Very well,"said Chesnel,"will you be guided entirely by his advice in this affair?"
7950Well, Athanase, will you promise me?
7950Well, Chesnel, is it something new?
7950Well, then, mademoiselle, why not arrange a bed in your boudoir? 7950 Well, then, where is the forgery?"
7950Well, well; what are we to do if our boys are wild, or turn out scapegraces? 7950 Well, what is it, M. le Comte?
7950Well, why do you blame him?
7950What are you thinking of, cousin?
7950What can Josette be thinking of?
7950What can be going forward at the d''Esgrignons''?
7950What can have happened, Josette? 7950 What can have taken M. le President away from home?"
7950What can that word mean?
7950What can they do? 7950 What do you mean?"
7950What do you want? 7950 What does all that mean?"
7950What does he want of me, ungrateful that he is?
7950What does it signify----?
7950What does that signify? 7950 What else can be done with a young man?
7950What have the Princes done for the du Guenics, or the Fontaines, or the Bauvans, who never submitted?
7950What have you been saying to Mademoiselle Cormon?
7950What have you come for, my dear little jewel of mischief?
7950What is it, monsieur?
7950What is it?
7950What is it?
7950What is the matter with you?
7950What is the matter with you?
7950What is to be done?
7950What will become of him now?
7950What will become of him? 7950 What will become of me in a house where naked women are painted on the walls?"
7950What would you do?
7950What would your uncle, that sainted man who hears us, say to this?
7950What, mademoiselle?
7950What, monsieur?
7950What? 7950 When was it made?"
7950Where is he now?
7950Where shall I find other lindens beneath which to read my breviary?
7950Where''s my uncle?
7950While I was away?
7950Why do you ask?
7950Why not play a game of piquet together?
7950Why, Monsieur le chevalier, ought I to wait until my mother beats me and Madame Lardot turns me off? 7950 Why, monsieur, when a young man is full of life and spirits, and leads an idle life in a town like this, what else can you expect?"
7950Will you put him in the green chamber?
7950Will you really go to Paris, then?
7950Will you swear that to me on your salvation?
7950With Mademoiselle Armande or Mademoiselle Cormon, who have both refused you? 7950 With whom will he take up to- night?"
7950Would you not forgive? 7950 Yes, but honor?--and his career?
7950You persist in making a magistrate of him?
7950You will not go without telling me; without warning me? 7950 A day seldom passed but he asked himself,Where is/he/?
7950A touch of rouge carefully applied destroyed the hopes of the Chevalier de Valois; could that nobleman perish in any other way?
7950After reading this missive could there be a question of the demands of Prebaudet?
7950And a charge brought against the heir of a great house by one of the most dangerous enemies of the Throne and Altar, what is it but an odious slander?
7950And if the heart counts for nothing in this affair--""But, cousin, what do people love with if not their hearts?"
7950And if the one man, who is in duty bound to believe in feminine fibs, is deceived by them, is not that enough?
7950And was not her answer the worthy crown of eleven years of her noble life?
7950And what sort of figure can a man make on two thousand livres?
7950And where are the hundred thousand crowns which( so M. Camusot tells me) are here in my house?"
7950And will not you, whose naive kindliness can only be compared with that of our own La Fontaine, be glad to know of this?
7950And,"Why should we go?"
7950Are you coming to me first?
7950Are you not one of the most important representatives of conscientious, studious Germany?
7950Armande weeping yonder?
7950Armande, for she would not survive the dishonor of the house for a week?
7950Besides, if there be stupidity, why not concern ourselves with the sorrows of stupidity as well as with the sorrows of genius?
7950Between private individuals the essence of a forgery is the intent to defraud; where is it in this case?
7950But is n''t it better that I should go to Paris?
7950But the faubourg Saint- Germain of Alencon accepted them proudly: it even said,"That poor chevalier, what else could he do?"
7950But where is he off to?
7950But you will confess it, will you not?
7950But, in the first place, what nobler destiny can you offer to a virtuous woman than to purify, like charcoal, the muddy waters of vice?
7950But, my friend, how shall we find the money for this journey?
7950Ca n''t I give him a glass of wine?"
7950Camusot a good- looking woman?"
7950Camusot looked at her spouse, as who should say,"Was I not right?"
7950Camusot, meanwhile, bidden to reveal the notary''s confidences, was at once assailed with,"Was I not right, dear?"
7950Camusot?"
7950Can you fail to see in that case that this charge is a piece of spite and party feeling?
7950Could we soften du Croisier, I wonder, or buy him over?
7950Could worse luck befall a political party than this-- to be represented by old men at a time when its ideas are already stigmatized as old- fashioned?
7950Did he regret that he had made no preparation for launching his heir into that brilliant world of court?
7950Did you notice that he slept?
7950Do n''t you understand me?"
7950Do they, by any chance, mean to force our hand?"
7950Do you really mean to go?"
7950Do you trouble yourself about that sort of thing?"
7950Do you understand, M. le Comte?
7950Do you wish to be the death of poor Chesnel, your old notary?
7950Does it not show the necessity for a new species of education?
7950Feeling that he was about to betray himself, he said hastily,--"Do n''t you think it is very cold to- day?
7950Fly, you say?
7950Grandt without compromising his position?
7950Had de Croisier sounded poor Victurnien''s nature so well, that he foresaw how easily the young Count would lend himself to his schemes of revenge?
7950Had he not just that moment wronged the most angelic creature on earth?
7950Had she not outlived her creed, and the beliefs that had been destroyed?
7950Has any one ever reflected on the service a dead sentiment can do to society; how love may become both social and useful?
7950Have n''t you said so yourself?
7950Have n''t you taken linen there for the last six or eight months?
7950He asked what was meant by it, and whether he was supposed to be the defendant and M. le Comte d''Esgrignon the plaintiff?
7950How can you keep the best people in the town from finding out faults in their neighbors?
7950How could she look so ethereal while her eyes drooped so murderously?
7950How had she solved in such short space the Jesuitical problem how to display a bosom whiter than her soul by hiding it in gauze?
7950How happens it she does n''t marry?"
7950How if Camusot or the second counsel for the prosecution should send word to Paris?
7950How should Victurnien speak of sordid details after that?
7950I have managed to save some of their property; but what is it, after all, in comparison with the wealth that they have lost?
7950If any one could carry off Victurnien, was it not the woman whose motherly heart yearned over him?
7950If we had to give him breakfast, where should we be with nothing in the house?"
7950If your dear Athanase loses his place, where can he find other employment?
7950In what times are we living, gentlemen?
7950Is Penelope the mistress of this house?"
7950Is he a bachelor?"
7950Is he or is he not guilty?"
7950Is it to the interest of the kingdom, or of the country, that historic houses should fall?
7950Is n''t it rather a piece of luck, which will pay you well?
7950Is that clear?"
7950Is there a woman in the world for whom such a thing has been done?
7950Is there no locking them up in these days?"
7950It almost recalls Daedalus''address to Icarus; for where, save in old mythology, can you look for comparisons worthy of this man of antique mould?
7950It is so extraordinary-- I, who thought-- The fact is that-- No, no, it ca n''t be--""What?
7950Madame Granson, as she stood on that fatal spot, saw a woman approach it, who exclaimed,--"Was it here?"
7950Madame du Bousquier still lives; is not that as much as to say she still suffers?
7950Now, answer me; are you going to allow dishonor to fall on the shade of your dead uncle, on the d''Esgrignons, on poor Chesnel?
7950Now, what can they have done to get round his deputy?
7950Or again, should she fascinate a du Tillet or a Nucingen, and gamble on the stock exchange to pay her creditors?
7950Or could it have been President du Ronceret''s son, then finishing his law studies in Paris?
7950Or should she go to the King and declare her debts to him?
7950Or was he merely profiting by an opportunity for which he had been on the watch for years?
7950Our lands, our castle?
7950Poor work- girl that I am, must I go to the hospital?
7950Poverty had kept him in the depths of his province; how should he have appeared at court?
7950She was drinking in the letter at long draughts; how should it have been otherwise?
7950Should she take refuge in a foreign country?
7950So the whispers went round from ear to ear:--"You have heard?"
7950So-- between ourselves, be it said--/is/ what has happened a misfortune?
7950Suppose I were to speak to her this evening?"
7950Suppose that he should drown himself?"
7950Suppose these antiquities should cast a reflected light of old age upon herself?
7950The higher they spring, the lower they fall; and how can it be that ties and bonds should not be broken by such a fall?
7950This last news, however, resolved itself into a single question,"What is happening at the Cormons?"
7950To employ the jargon of the day, is there not a singular drama in the situation of these four personages?
7950Was he doubtful of the reception awaiting the young Count?
7950Was he pained by the discovery that his son''s future must depend upon his sometime land steward?
7950Was it merely the joy of opening the concert?
7950Was it possible?
7950Was it the Kellers?
7950Was the bourgeoisie to cut out the noblesse?
7950Well, mademoiselle, what is it?"
7950What business ought to require a young man to write at night?"
7950What can these new doctrines be if they have spoiled/you/?"
7950What can we have done that the dear Vidame is punishing us by keeping his word to the infanta?
7950What could he make of her?--his wife?
7950What could the younger son of a judge, a public prosecutor during the Revolution, have been doing there?
7950What course should he take?
7950What else should he do in the provinces with an allowance of a miserable hundred louis?
7950What had the Chevalier de Valois been about all this time?
7950What has happened?"
7950What is/he/ doing?"
7950What more?"
7950What o''clock is it?"
7950What resolution should he make?
7950What time is it?
7950What was to be done?
7950What will become of him?
7950What will come of it?
7950What would he not have done to save the Count?
7950What/is/ her name, do you know?
7950When so many persons are forced to pay annuities to others, what more natural than to pay one to his own best friend?
7950Where do you come from?
7950Where is the draft?
7950Where is the general who has not trembled on the eve of a battle?
7950Where was the man that did not burn to discover a Caron, or a Berton, or a revolt of some sort?
7950Who and what are you working for now?"
7950Who does not already feel that life must have been calm and monotonously regular in this old edifice?
7950Who knows what it costs to relinquish the delights of power?
7950Who was it that gave du Croisier warning of the moment?
7950Who will really understand Athanase Granson''s love for Mademoiselle Cormon?
7950Who would think that you had passed that way?"
7950Why did you not forge/my/ signature?
7950Why do you look at me?''
7950Why lead those people to suspect that you will have no part in their schemes?
7950Will not your approval win for me the approval of others, and protect this attempt of mine?
7950You want to tear up the social compact, the Charter in which our rights are set forth---""And so?"
7950You would rather I lived than died?"
7950and a"What DID you do?"
7950and this girl Suzanne, how am I to know history?"
7950cried the grisette, wrapping her virtue round her,"what do you take me for?
7950exclaimed the maid- servant, left with Chesnel in the dining- room,"Would not any one think that a thunderbolt had dropped in among us?
7950for what crime dost thou punish me thus?"
7950if it had not been for that little failing, would he not have been more perfect than it is permitted to mortal man to be?
7950if they were n''t, why should he worry himself?"
7950is it you, Suzanne?"
7950is n''t virtue which drives out intellect vice?
7950monsieur, can you hesitate?
7950must I beg my bread?
7950so you are married?"
7950taxes are high, are they?"
7950that fearful picture of a deliberate effort to shut out the thought of debts and duels, deceit and evil luck?
7950what can we do to reward you?"
7950what have I done?
7950where are you going?"
7950why should not Victurnien have debts?
7950you ca n''t marry me?"
1941And what right have you to this privilege?
1941Are you very fond of children?
1941Baronne de Macumer?
1941But how?
1941But what have you done to yourself?
1941But why despair? 1941 But why?
1941But,I said,"is that because you refuse to accept any help, or because the thing itself is impossible?"
1941But,I said,"you wo n''t interfere with my living in my own fashion and enjoying life if I leave you my fortune?"
1941But,said my mother,"Henarez must have met the Spanish ambassador on the steps?"
1941Come, come,I cried,"what has become of my excellent judgment?"
1941Do you mean equality in the amount of feeling on either side, or equality in rank?
1941Gaston,I said,"if love in absence had been possible for me, do you suppose I should ever have left the convent?"
1941How then,I said to myself,"about the deeper feelings?"
1941If debarred from love, why not seek for happiness?
1941In one word,I said,"are you a nobleman or not?"
1941In very truth?
1941May I ask how much I have?
1941May I keep it?
1941Shall I tell you, my child, which is the most destructive of all the consequences entailed by the Revolution? 1941 Strange, is n''t it, for a fallen minister?"
1941To Paris?
1941Was it for this you tortured me?
1941Was not the mistake excusable? 1941 What could he do but die?"
1941What do you mean?
1941What is it, little flirt?
1941What makes you think so?
1941What of that?
1941What will become of him, for he is condemned to death?
1941What would you have with me?
1941When will they be reconciled?
1941Where is yours?
1941Who in the world has put Fedelta in such a state?
1941Why these fine words, these grand resolutions?
1941Will mademoiselle allow me,he said in Spanish, in a voice full of agitation,"to keep this writing in memory of her?
1941You know him then?
1941A score of times it has been on my lips, when we rise in the morning, to say,"Then you love me better than the lady of the Rue de la Ville l''Eveque?"
1941A touching story, is it not?
1941A voice cries to me_ what?_ in my sleep.
1941Am I not always, in the presence of others, the wife who respects in him the authority of the family?
1941Am I not mistress for all time of this lion whose roar dies out in plaintive and adoring sighs?
1941Am I the kind of woman, do you suppose, to shirk such cares?
1941And Nais?
1941And finally, is not the Comte de l''Estorade a peer of this July semi- republic?
1941And for what purpose?
1941And is it not your own wish which has confined within the compass of a lover''s feeling so many varying forms of devotion?
1941And what of the monkey godson?
1941And what of you?
1941And where would you find a sailor bolder, more adventurous, more astute than my Rene will be a few years hence?
1941And will it never be mine to watch the unfolding of a precious life-- another Felipe, only more dear?
1941And yet, can you fancy me torn in two between you and the infant?
1941And you, my sweetheart( whom I dare no longer call my loved one), may you not cry,"I am losing a sister?"
1941Are there no aged peers?"
1941Are there to be no wheelmarks of a little carriage on the gravel, no broken toys littered about the courtyard?
1941Are these the promises we made each other?
1941Are you really and truly certain it is a child?"
1941Are you still in love with Felipe?
1941Are you sure that, after all, the price you ask for your toilets is not too high?
1941But did n''t you tell me you were going to make a genius of him?
1941But have you forgotten your former criticism on young men?
1941But if so, what?
1941But what is there to prevent me from launching on that boundless sea our familiar craft?
1941But what then of the heart?
1941But what was to be done?
1941But why?
1941By the way, why always"first?"
1941Can Heaven be jealous of our passions?
1941Can Hell have a worse torture?
1941Can joy be made lasting?
1941Can the man in whom we inspire love inspire it in us?
1941Can the two passions ever co- exist?
1941Can you be ignorant how you are loved?
1941Can you not read in this, my friend, a soul of noble temper?
1941Can you suppose that the incidents of your married life are without interest for me?
1941Could it be that my father, instead of spending this money in arranging a marriage for me, would have left me to die in the convent?
1941Dear Philip the Second in petticoats, are you comfortable in my barouche?
1941Dear friend, was not this a trial passing the strength of woman?
1941Did I ever feel my life thus bound up in the noble Spaniard, who adored me, as I adore this heartless boy?
1941Did he know her before our marriage?
1941Did n''t I tell you once that in Paris one must be as the Parisians?
1941Do I need any proof of your cleverness?
1941Do n''t you see, Renee, what they want with you?
1941Do you enter into each other''s thoughts?
1941Do you fancy you will convert me to matrimony by your programme of subterranean labors?
1941Do you know that many women would be highly flattered at having roused this passing pang in you?
1941Do you know what inspires a woman with all this arithmetic?
1941Do you know what that means?
1941Do you know, dear, that it is more than three months since I have written to you or heard from you?
1941Do you perceive the ultimate motive of my change of investment?
1941Do you see now how it is that my winter evenings never drag?
1941Do you see those velvet eyes, humble, yet so eloquent, and glorying in their servitude, which flash on me as some one goes by?
1941Do you suppose he could have written like this before?
1941Do you suppose that your Louis, who comes to see me almost every alternate day, makes up for you?
1941Does Louis continue his policy of madrigals?
1941Does everything prosper as you wish?
1941Does he still worship?
1941Does it soothe, or does it excite?
1941Does no one of the thousand prayers that I speed to you reach home?
1941Does not this show how little, unless by his impatient wishes, the father counts for in this matter?
1941Does she not carry you?"
1941Does this mean that you are at last happy?
1941For himself, why should he hesitate to draw from my purse?
1941For how make a confidant of him?
1941For what does a woman mean by it but perversion of feeling through calculation?
1941For what is holier and more precious than jealousy?
1941For whom, if not for her, are the luxury and wealth, the position and distinction, the comfort and the gaiety of the home?
1941Had n''t he taken me for a fool?
1941Had she been deserted by some rich man, whose mistress she was, and thus thrown back upon Gaston''s hands?
1941Has he a thought, a single thought, that is not of me?
1941Has my sweet lady professor taken offence?
1941Have I ever yet proved false to my promise in gesture or look?
1941Have I not known in turn two men, each the very pattern of nobility-- one in mind, the other in outward form?
1941Have we not both perhaps exaggerated feeling by giving to imagination too free a rein?
1941Have you lost the"complete independence"which you were so proud of, and which to- night has so nearly played me false?
1941Have you never, in the silence of the night, or through the roar of the town, heard the whisper of a voice in your sweet, dainty ear?
1941Have you no news to give of our mulberry trees, our last winter''s plantations?
1941Having sacrificed your first husband in the course of a fashionable career, would you now fly to the desert to consume a second?
1941He drew near, put his arm again round me, and said:"Why fear it?
1941He might have broken his neck; how many of our young men would do the like?
1941Here Gaston found me, apparently pale and fluttered, for he immediately exclaimed,"What is wrong?"
1941Hope than fruition?
1941How can I give him my orders to write every evening the particulars of the day just gone?
1941How can I have qualms with a friend at Court, a great financier, head of the Audit Department?
1941How can one order the destiny of a girl?
1941How comes it that Armande- Louise- Marie de Chaulieu must be like some peasant girl, who sleeps in her mother''s bed the very morrow of her death?
1941How could I not be sick-- sick unto death?
1941How could I tolerate my happiness if I knew you to be a wanderer, deprived of the comforts which wealth everywhere commands?
1941How could any woman defraud her children of such a possession?
1941How could she, who has made a paradise for herself within the two acres of her convent, understand my revolt against life?
1941How could the heart be kept out of the work?
1941How did it come about that this virgin heart has been left for me?
1941How far could I go in this direction?
1941How indeed should the victim proclaim them without injury to herself?
1941How is it possible to fall in love with legs and pirouettes?
1941How to be sure?
1941How will life be possible without that heavenly music, when one''s heart is full of love?
1941I am deserted-- for whom?
1941I am tempted to cry out to him as he passes,"Fool, if you love me so much as a picture, what will it be when you know the real me?"
1941I am the more guilty of the two, for I did not reply to your last, but you do n''t stand on punctilio surely?
1941I am very nearly happy now, but should I be so without a friendly heart in which to pour the confession?
1941I asked him point- blank,"Do I bore you?"
1941I burn to suffer for you"?
1941I die adored-- what more could I wish for?
1941I felt quite small and dazed as I said to myself,"What shall I do?"
1941I thought he would have paid me back in kind; had I not been magnanimous?
1941I watched Louis out of the corner of my eye, and put it to myself,"Has suffering had a softening or a hardening effect on him?"
1941If it is painful to see a man whom nature has made a nonentity, how much worse is the spectacle of a man of parts brought to that position?
1941If love be not the cage, what power on earth can hold back the man who wants to be free?
1941If love be the life of the world, why do austere philosophers count it for nothing in marriage?
1941If this be designed as chastisement, what can be the sweetness of your rewards?
1941In what proportion should love mingle tears with pleasures?
1941In what terms would a man like that express his love?
1941Is existence worthy the name, when a man can no longer die for his country or live for a woman?
1941Is he ashamed of taking money from me?
1941Is he not one of those pillars of royalty offered by the"people"to the King of the French?
1941Is he still pretty and a credit to me?
1941Is he, in very truth, the devoted slave he painted himself?
1941Is it a thing out of nature?
1941Is it not at once a passion, a natural craving, a feeling, a duty, a necessity, a joy?
1941Is it not ever the monarch of the forest which is eaten away by the fatal brown grub, greedy as death?
1941Is it not practically avowing that the senses count for three parts out of four in a passion which ought to be super- sensual?
1941Is it not she who reaps the benefit of all his care?
1941Is it not simple prudence to make provision beforehand against the calamities incident to change of feeling?"
1941Is it only a marriage of reason, such as yours, which is blessed with a family?
1941Is it possible that the name of duty has been given to the delicious frenzy of the heart, to the overwhelming rush of passion?
1941Is it some peculiar process in the brain?
1941Is it some youthful escapade for which he still blushes?
1941Is it still so after the heights of happiness are reached?
1941Is it teething?
1941Is it the rich who in very truth are the poor?
1941Is it thus with all our pleasures?
1941Is my ideal portrait, then, forgotten?
1941Is not such a man an enemy, whom I ought to trample under foot?
1941Is not the spirit of Sacrifice a power mightier than any of its results?
1941Is not your love strong enough to deceive me?
1941Is she alone with her independence?
1941Is she happy?
1941Is suspense always better than enjoyment?
1941Is there any trouble which you are hiding from me?
1941Is there something wrong with the nervous system of children who are subject to convulsions?
1941Is there, I wonder, a second love?
1941Is there, then, a law for the inner fruits of the heart, as there is for the visible fruits of nature?
1941Is this only a whim of my dear whimsical friend?
1941It is named Louise''s seat-- a proof, is it not, that even in solitude I am not alone here?
1941Let us go back to Paris, wo n''t you?"
1941Love makes my Louis happy, but marriage has made me a mother, and who shall say I am not happy also?
1941Love may be the fairest gem which Society has filched from Nature; but what is motherhood save Nature in her most gladsome mood?
1941May I not justly pride myself on this assured possession, rather than on a popularity necessarily unstable?
1941May I not swallow up the book itself?
1941May not Gaston come to loathe this too perfect bliss?
1941My father, mother, and Alphonse all burst out laughing, and Alphonse said:"Where in the world has she sprung from?"
1941My father?
1941My husband is a young man, prematurely old; why do n''t you marry some young- hearted graybeard in the Chamber of Peers?
1941My love, do you know I am seized sometimes with a horrible craving to know what goes on between my mother and that young man?
1941My mother, have you not a caress for your Felipe now that he has yielded to your favorite even the girl whom you regretfully thrust into his arms?
1941My mother?
1941No, dear, however sweet the memory of that half- hour beneath the trees, it is nothing like the excitement of the old time with its:"Shall I go?
1941Now, Louise, can you realize the torture to me of knowing that I had displeased you, while entirely ignorant of the cause?
1941Now, can you understand the meaning of my sudden journeys, my mysterious comings and goings?
1941Now, do you know whither those beautiful things, which the world supposes to be sold, have flown?
1941Now, for my part, I have resolved never to pardon a serious misdemeanor, and in love, pray, what is not serious?
1941Now, happiness in marriage depends largely on the first days--""Days only?"
1941Of what crime have I been guilty before my birth that I can inspire no love?
1941One calculation or a thousand, what matter, if the decision no longer rests with the heart?
1941Or could it be my brother?
1941Or is it the uncle''s legacy?
1941Our position will not be without its dangers; in a country life, such as ours will be, ought we not to bear in mind the evanescent nature of passion?
1941Perhaps you were afraid you would be less to your children in Paris?
1941Pray, do you spend your life writing him letters of advice?
1941RENEE TO LOUISE You complain of my silence; have you forgotten, then, those two little brown heads, at once my subjects and my tyrants?
1941Renee, how is it possible to fathom the heart of man?
1941Renee, tell me, do you think we could be betrayed by a man?
1941Renee, where are you?"
1941Renee, you burn my letters, do n''t you?
1941Shall I accept this last descendant of the Moors?
1941Shall I do less for the children who are all the world to me?
1941Shall I never hear baby lips shout"Mamma,"and have my dress pulled by a teasing despot whom my heart adores?
1941Shall I never visit the toy- shops, as mothers do, to buy swords, and dolls, and baby- houses?
1941Shall I not go?
1941Shall I not write?"
1941Shall I tell you why?
1941Shall I tremble then, as he does now?
1941Shall I write to him?
1941Shall we ever again let years pass without writing?
1941So you know all that lies before you; you have nothing left to hope, or fear, or suffer?
1941Supposing the nation went bankrupt?
1941Tell me, are you afraid that the political wisdom of the house of l''Estorade should seem to centre in you?
1941Tell me, dear be- furbelowed professor, how can one reconcile the two goals of a woman''s existence?
1941Tell me, did you not droop and sicken with your darling?
1941Tell me, to what point is calculation a virtue, or virtue calculation?
1941That proves, does it not, that the pain of losing you equals my love for Gaston?
1941The father?
1941The question is, Can you rise to the height of friendship such as I understand it?
1941The thought is enough to make one shudder; for if this being is found too late, what then?
1941Then a thought stayed me,"What can he have to say that he writes so secretly?"
1941To fasten him to our heart, need the nails be driven into the very quick?
1941To see a child leave its play and run to hug one, out of the fulness of its heart, what could be sweeter?
1941To whose hand and eyes, but one''s own, intrust the task of feeding, dressing, and putting to bed?
1941To you, who have known us both so well, what more need I say?
1941Was I not mother enough before?
1941Was it not a covert taunt at my wealth and his own nothingness in the house?
1941Was it not a duty to live on our salary and prudently allow the income of the estate to accumulate?
1941Was it so indeed?
1941Was she married?
1941Was she not, moreover, one of those mysterious beings who can hold converse with Heaven and bring back thence a vision of the future?
1941We are not certain of never quarreling with ourselves, how much less so when there are two?
1941We or the world?
1941Well, I would ask you, have you ever heard me contradict him?
1941What are his thoughts at this moment?
1941What can be awaiting me in this world for which I have so hungered?
1941What can be the cause of this terrible disease with children?
1941What can he be concealing?
1941What could I say?
1941What do you think the hairdresser proposed?
1941What does it all mean?
1941What does this mean?
1941What else is there in the world to care about?
1941What happy chance has given me such a destiny?
1941What has come to you, my dear?
1941What has passed within this enigmatic being?
1941What is a man, a Spaniard, and a teacher of languages to me?
1941What is he about?
1941What is he doing?
1941What is he thinking of?
1941What is she about?
1941What is there to say against such a situation for a woman who wishes to remain absolute mistress of herself?"
1941What is this but another name for a dozen crimes, a dozen misfortunes?
1941What joy the world can give would compare with such a moment?
1941What mighty edifice of fortune has he not overthrown?
1941What more gracious way of saying to a young girl that she fills your life?
1941What need have I for finessing?
1941What pleasure has roots so deep as one which is not personal but creative?
1941What restrains me?
1941What sense of duty can force from her these flowers of the heart, the roses of life, the passionate poetry of her nature, apart from love?
1941What soil produces these radiant flowers of the soul?
1941What will they do with the thinking being that is Armand?
1941What would you have?
1941What would you have?
1941What, pray, is yours?
1941What?
1941When choose the cambric for the baby- clothes?
1941When shall I embroider little caps and sew lace edgings to encircle a tiny head?
1941When they are reached, what then?
1941Where is the change, pray-- in them or in you?
1941Where should I be but for my breastplate-- the love I bear Felipe?
1941Which is wrong?
1941Who can say that she will not love a scoundrel or some man who is indifferent to her?
1941Who shall say which of us is right, which is wrong?
1941Who, then, has had bowels of mercy?
1941Why are our destinies so unequal?
1941Why did life animate this carcass, and when will it depart?
1941Why did you not take this opportunity of seeing Paris?
1941Why have you forced me by your rash act to commit another, and one which may lower me in your eyes?"
1941Why should I be false in the future?"
1941Why should I write?
1941Why should the loyalty of a Catholic be less supreme?
1941Why these horrors, these ghastly scenes, for a mother who already idolized her child?
1941Will he find out there are two?
1941Will not the sovereign master of this earth, Calamity, take umbrage if no place be left for him at your feast?
1941Will that satisfy you?
1941Will the day ever come when Felipe is my master?
1941Will you not come soon and soothe me with such promises?
1941With a crying baby and a soaked child, what mind has a mother left for herself?
1941Worn out with suspicions, which were fed by Gaston''s guilty silence( for, if he had helped a friend, why keep it a secret from me?
1941Would you believe it?
1941Would you give the name of vice to the prudence of the wife who guards her family from destruction through its own acts?
1941You prate of duty, and make it your rule and measure; but surely to take necessity as the spring of action is the moral theory of atheism?
1941You smile?
1941You think you know me?
1941You will come to Paris-- there, is n''t that enough?
1941You wo n''t say?
1941but is it possible?..."
1941de Maufrigneuse said to me:"Dear child, who can compete with you?"
1941de Stael?"
1941dear, what is going on now at La Crampade?
1941have I not been a mere will- o''-the- wisp, whose twinkling spark was fated to perish before it reached a flame?
1941he is young?"
1941is it fitting a Christian so to love mortal man?
1941may I never again speak of the natural pleasure I feel in the exercise of dancing?
1941must nature and society alike be in bondage to your caprice?
1941my dear friend, what can I say in answer except the cruel_"It is too late"_ of that fool Lafayette to his royal master?
1941my dear old preacher, do my love affairs amuse you as much as your dismal philosophy gives me the creeps?
1941my sweet, why do we speak a different tongue?
1941or has her independence gone the way of other dead and castoff independences?"
1941tell me, I implore you, what is happiness?
1941then Spain is the country of tombs as well as castles?"
1941what chance have I with the best of arguments against a fallacy which makes you happy?
1941what had he to say to me?
1941what torture of the damned can exceed the misery in that word?
1941what was he coming for?
1941will he suppose I left the window open on purpose?
7417( Aloud) And you refuse to tell us what it is?
7417( Aloud) I have spoken to you in the language of genuine philosophy-- Mathieu Magis( to Monipodio) Can you tell me who this remarkably learned man is?
7417( Aloud) What do you want?
7417( Aloud) Why are you not as great as your creative thought?
7417( Aloud) Will you consent, on condition I obey you, to give Fontanares all that is necessary for the success of his undertaking?
7417( Aside) Where is Quinola?
7417( Aside) Why is it they do not arrive?
7417( He laughs) But what is my master thinking about?
7417( He looks round) Tell me, where is the Duke of Olmedo?
7417( He points out the parts of the machine) All this is meaningless; for philosophers, the great thing-- Don Ramon The great thing?
7417( He turns to the friar) Sir Beggar?
7417( He unseals the letter, smells it, folds it up again, and gives it to him) Are you satisfied?
7417( To Don Ramon) Are you satisfied with him?
7417( To Don Ramon) Will you come here?
7417( To Fontanares) What do you ask of me?
7417( To Marie) But tell me who brought you here?
7417( To Monipodio) How do you find things?
7417( To Quinola) Come my good fellow, have you any idea of what is meant by wealth?
7417( To Quinola) Who are you, my friend?
7417( To a lord) Duke of Lerma, is there anything new in Valladolid?
7417( To his daughter) How is it that you, Marie, heiress of ten thousand sequins a year, should speak to-- do my eyes deceive me?
7417( To the Captain of the Guards) How ought the king to be spoken to?
7417( to the Captain of the Guards) Has our man arrived?
7417( to the Grand Inquisitor) Father( the Grand Inquisitor approaches), what can you tell us of a certain Alfonso Fontanares?
7417( to the duke) Where is your prisoner?
7417--why should I say poor?
7417A rival?
7417Already?
7417Am I all of life to you?
7417Am I not on my way to the harbor to choose a fine galleon?
7417And how?
7417And on the other hand, if Fontanares should die, why should not I save his invention for the good of humanity?
7417And on whom has she bestowed herself?
7417And should I be here, as you see me, if I were dead?
7417And to pass from hell to heaven in an instant?
7417And what are you doing?
7417And what of my daughter''s diamonds, which the great man''s servant put into the machine?
7417And you, Count Sarpi?
7417And your daughter too?
7417Are genius and crime the same thing in Thy sight?
7417Are we dogs?
7417Are you dreaming?
7417Are you sufficiently in your right mind to take a bit of advice?
7417Are you unaware that the magistrates of Barcelona look upon you as an accomplice of the thief who robbed Lothundiaz?
7417Avaloros But what is your ultimate object?
7417Avaloros Have I not here in my pocket enough to pay for six men of genius?
7417Avaloros Is the queen of our lives really ill?
7417Avaloros Is thought, then, a malady?
7417Avaloros Say, such a sum as two thousand golden doubloons?
7417Avaloros We shall be friends?
7417Avaloros What do you want to get out of the deal?
7417Because the judge was deaf, must the king be blind?
7417But does a person ever change from contempt to love?
7417But here-- do not laugh-- you must promise-- I wish-- The Marchioness You wish?
7417But is my whole fortune worth one word from you?
7417But suppose that Don Ramon could insure your success?
7417But what obstacle do you see between success and me?
7417By impudence?
7417By trickery?
7417By what means is it propelled?
7417Coppolus( to Carpano) Shall we have it sold?
7417Count Lothundiaz, will you advance two thousand doubloons in gold to your son- in- law that he may fulfill his promises to the King of Spain?
7417Did she divine the person and presence of her rival?
7417Did that child have skill to protect you?
7417Did you not tell me that your grandfather went, some fifty years ago, with Cortez, to Mexico; has he ever been heard of?
7417Do I understand you aright?
7417Do you doubt now my constancy?
7417Do you know Latin?
7417Do you know it is for this purpose that I am passing myself off as his grandfather?
7417Do you know who that man is?
7417Do you not see what is here at stake, even the realization of that universal dominion long- sought for by my glorious father?
7417Do you now understand how I adore her?
7417Do you really make my grief your own?
7417Do you take me for an imbecile?
7417Do you think that a man can pluck from his heart a love like mine, as easily as he draws the sword from his scabbard?
7417Does the soul know the body?
7417Don Fregose Alone with him?
7417Don Fregose And what of your own marriage?
7417Don Fregose But how can we do so?
7417Don Fregose Is she the only woman in the world you love?
7417Don Fregose Senora, will you not come and take luncheon at the villa of Avaloros?
7417Don Fregose What has he done to you?
7417Don Fregose What is that the people are calling out?
7417Don Fregose What will the king say?
7417Don Fregose( to Fontanares) Of what house are you?
7417Don Ramon Do you think, senor, that you can afford to slight Don Ramon, the great scientific authority?
7417Don Ramon Immense, why immense?
7417Don Ramon Let him alone; do n''t you see that he is crazy?
7417Don Ramon Senor, you are perfectly right, the clouds, that is, the water-- Quinola Water, senor?
7417Don Ramon You acknowledge then my claim?
7417Dona Lopez What is it you desire?
7417Esteban Can any of you tell me where a person named Fontanares is hiding himself?
7417Esteban Can we pay the baker with this confidence in you?
7417Faustine And is not my love, Alfonso, worth a world?
7417Faustine And with whom is he in love now?
7417Faustine And would I have let them give that to you, if I thought you would ever receive it?
7417Faustine Are you a Jew?
7417Faustine As I am not yet the Marchioness of Fregose, how dare you give your orders in my house?
7417Faustine But do n''t you know that I am rather fond of chimeras?
7417Faustine But what if he could raise himself as high as to a Brancadori?
7417Faustine Can a woman ever lose her habit of seduction?
7417Faustine Can there be any punishment which a woman who loves can feel?
7417Faustine Did you not tell me he was despondent?
7417Faustine Do you think it is too noble for a Brancadori?
7417Faustine Do you think that he has noticed me?
7417Faustine Have you made the necessary preparations, cousin, for your immediate marriage with Marie Lothundiaz?
7417Faustine I?
7417Faustine Pray tell me, who are you?
7417Faustine Simply because-- You understand?
7417Faustine Staked his life?
7417Faustine That gold you speak of-- is it already in your possession?
7417Faustine Was Monipodio, through whom you learn everything that goes on in Barcelona, under my windows last night, or was he not?
7417Faustine What devils have you called in to assist you?
7417Faustine What difference does it make?
7417Faustine What of that, provided it were your hand that did it?
7417Faustine Whose?
7417Faustine You lend money?
7417Faustine( on the balcony) Tell me what is going on, my lord, between that young man and your secretary?
7417Faustine( to Sarpi, the viceroy and Avaloros) Can we not conquer him, in spite of all?
7417Faustine( to the viceroy) What are you talking about?
7417Fontanares A charlatan, my lord?
7417Fontanares A convent?
7417Fontanares After listening to such words as these, what martyr would not receive new courage at the stake?
7417Fontanares Am I to be the victim of fresh persecutions, my lord?
7417Fontanares And is this the reason why you try to bring upon me all sorts of bad luck?
7417Fontanares And what care I for glory, for fortune, for life itself, without you?
7417Fontanares And what do you want now?
7417Fontanares And what of Marie?
7417Fontanares And why?
7417Fontanares But does the viceroy consent to this arrangement?
7417Fontanares But without hope that there will be any return-- need I say of what?
7417Fontanares By what means?
7417Fontanares Can you find any money by staying here?
7417Fontanares Did the devil reveal this method of navigation to the first sailor?
7417Fontanares Do you wish me to abase myself?
7417Fontanares Do you wish to ruin me?
7417Fontanares Don Ramon?
7417Fontanares Eight months gone already?
7417Fontanares Father, what do you wish me to say?
7417Fontanares Free?
7417Fontanares Have you ever seen a ship on the sea?
7417Fontanares How is it that you, usually so brave and merry, begin now to speak to me in such a dolorous tone?
7417Fontanares I am seeking for-- Faustine Is it anything I can find for you?
7417Fontanares I care not for fortune excepting for one reason; shall I be enabled to we d Marie Lothundiaz?
7417Fontanares I would like to know who it is has set you on me in this way?
7417Fontanares Is this meant for a joke?
7417Fontanares Marie, how can I live without you?
7417Fontanares Shall I live long enough to testify my gratitude to you?
7417Fontanares Tell me, pray, what was it troubled you?
7417Fontanares We?
7417Fontanares Well?
7417Fontanares What devil is blinding you?
7417Fontanares What do you mean?
7417Fontanares What friend embraces you so closely as a creditor?
7417Fontanares What is it?
7417Fontanares What kind of a man is this Don Ramon?
7417Fontanares What of that?
7417Fontanares What will be the result of this imposture?
7417Fontanares Where shall I obtain money?
7417Fontanares Who told you I needed one?
7417Fontanares Who would not envy such a one?
7417Fontanares Will you accept for your son- in- law the Duke of Neptunado, grandee of Spain, and favorite of the king?
7417Fontanares You must at least tell me, how are you going to effect this?
7417Fontanares You save me?
7417Fontanares You?
7417Fontanares( aside to Quinola) What is all this about?
7417Fontanares( to Fregose) My lord, what strange delusion has fallen upon the people and burgesses of Barcelona?
7417Fontanares( to Monipodio) Who is this person?
7417Fregose His death?
7417Fregose How can I be otherwise than vexed when you compromise yourself thus, you, whom I wish to be my wife?
7417Fregose Indeed, and how then shall I imitate this cursed Petrarch?
7417Fregose Tell me, what is your reason for this?
7417Fregose What is this?
7417Girone Set us on?
7417Going, going-- no further bid?
7417Halberdier From what state?
7417Has he allowed himself to be beaten off?
7417Have I not done well, in always obtaining a duplicate of that which he required?
7417He employs the turnspit then?
7417How are you, senor; are you come to put my constancy to a fresh test?
7417How can the mind, engaged in such quests, have time for distrusting men, fighting them, and combining others against them?
7417How could such ignorance as this have been anticipated?
7417How could you accomplish it?
7417How much do you need?
7417I am the only one who would not rob you either of your glory, or of your fortune, for what would this be, but to rob myself?
7417I do n''t like water, do you?
7417I hale him to justice-- you understand!--That is not treachery is it?
7417I suppose that now you will pay me the two thousand sequins which you borrowed from my father?
7417If you wish to lend your name to promote an important business undertaking-- Mathieu Magis Is it smuggling?
7417Is Lothundiaz still alive?
7417Is Marie here?
7417Is he blind?
7417Is it nothing to have a chance of bearing one of the noblest of names?
7417Is it possible that there are virtues which it is for our advantage to discard?
7417Is it possible that you can put into proper condition in one night the vessel which otherwise will be forfeited to you?
7417Is it possible they are raising up a rival to me?
7417Is it the law of God that you should persecute and put to shame that which eventually you will be compelled to adore?
7417Is that the way they would separate us?
7417Is there but one woman in the world?
7417Is there such a sum?
7417Is yon sound an omen of success?
7417Is your heart so very small that it can not harbor two affections?
7417Lothundiaz And are not the thieves in the hand of justice?
7417Lothundiaz And you are Pablo Fontanaresi?
7417Lothundiaz And you are rich?
7417Lothundiaz Did you get nothing, Master Coppolus?
7417Lothundiaz His grandfather?
7417Lothundiaz Is it not disgraceful for a man in your position thus to undertake to insult a philosopher whose reputation is established?
7417Lothundiaz Who told you that?
7417Lothundiaz You, whom I have known since you were two foot high, whose father used to sell cloth-- do you take me for a fool?
7417Lothundiaz( to Don Ramon) So you do not think much of him?
7417Lothundiaz( to Don Ramon) What do you think of that?
7417Love me?
7417Magis, my dear friend, assist me in this matter, be my protector, and give me a few days more?
7417Marie Am I in time?
7417Marie And is not your honor also mine?
7417Marie And never see him again?
7417Marie And yet, you refuse my help?
7417Marie Did you not make a solemn promise to the King of Spain, yes, to all the world?
7417Marie Do you not know me yet?
7417Marie Do you think then that I could change?
7417Marie His life?
7417Marie How could you live in the hands of your executioner?
7417Marie If he should become a duke, grandee of Spain, and wealthy?
7417Marie Is it possible, father, that a lover could prove false to a love which has spurred him on to work such wonders?
7417Marie Is it really you?
7417Marie Rather than glory?
7417Marie So soon?
7417Marie What does that matter, if I love him?
7417Marie What must I do?
7417Marie What say you, father?
7417Mathieu Magis In what sense do you mean?
7417Mathieu Magis What do you mean, senor?
7417Mathieu Magis Why so?
7417Monipodio And do you dare to show yourself here?
7417Monipodio And have you seen the king?
7417Monipodio And what could we look for?
7417Monipodio Be careful, first of all, when you approach on that subject; suppose that he were a Mussulman?
7417Monipodio But how is it possible for us to gain a fortune honestly?
7417Monipodio Coming of its own accord?
7417Monipodio Could not I enter his service?
7417Monipodio From protests?
7417Monipodio I suppose you stole your pardon?
7417Monipodio Payment?
7417Monipodio The brothers of our order have received tidings of your dear Lopez-- Dona Lopez That he was living?
7417Monipodio Who is it dares to tread on my shoes?
7417Monipodio You bring back a master with you?
7417Must I pay for my triumph in advance?
7417My dear duke, lend me a hundred ducats?
7417Poor?
7417Pray what are we to do about the sheriff?
7417Quinola Am I in it with you?
7417Quinola Are you not still in touch with the coiners of false money, and the skeleton key- makers?
7417Quinola But does any one believe him?
7417Quinola But what of the hundred ducats?
7417Quinola Did n''t I tell you that there was a treasure coming?
7417Quinola Do I see here, my son, that famous invention about which Venice is so excited?
7417Quinola Do you mean it?
7417Quinola Do you not plainly see, senor, that I must rid you of this philosopher?
7417Quinola Do you understand me?
7417Quinola Do you wish to see me go to prison and your machine to the devil?
7417Quinola For what place?
7417Quinola Glory?
7417Quinola How goes it?
7417Quinola How is that, sir?
7417Quinola Immense-- in that it is natural, since man-- pay particular attention to this-- does not create force-- Don Ramon Very good, then how--?
7417Quinola In Latin?
7417Quinola Is he envious?
7417Quinola Is that a threat or a warning?
7417Quinola Obey, without understanding why?
7417Quinola Permit me then to bring about the return of this grandfather?
7417Quinola Senor knows mechanics, ballistics, mathematics, dioptrics, catoptrics, statistics?
7417Quinola Senor?
7417Quinola Should I be in rags?
7417Quinola To whom are you speaking?
7417Quinola What is this, senor, Landlord of the Golden Sun?
7417Quinola What is this?
7417Quinola What now?
7417Quinola What?
7417Quinola Who are these people?
7417Quinola Who said fool?
7417Quinola Why?
7417Quinola Yes, but where is Monipodio?
7417Quinola or Lavradi?
7417Quinola( aside) Where is Monipodio?
7417Quinola( noticing that the Duke of Olmedo is fainting) How are you?
7417Quinola( passing in) From what state?
7417Quinola( taking him aside) Are not you the cousin of the Marchioness of Mondejar?
7417Quinola( to Fontanares) Are you making a good beginning here?
7417Quinola( to Monipodio) Do n''t you think that my master has pre- eminently the gift of drawing down the lightning on his own head?
7417Quinola( to Monipodio) Who can that be?
7417Quinola( to the landlord) Rascal of a landlord, is this the dwelling- place of my grandson?
7417Rise up and speak to me; what is this force miraculous which shall give to Spain the empire of the world?
7417Sarpi A right?
7417Sarpi And how do you explain the resurrection of your grandfather, the pretended director of the Venetian arsenal?
7417Sarpi And how do you stand with him now?
7417Sarpi And is it possible that you who cling so persistently to the actual have any faith in him?
7417Sarpi But how would you manage the matter?
7417Sarpi Has your master got his ship?
7417Sarpi( to Lothundiaz) You here, Senor Lothundiaz?
7417Sarpi( to Quinola) Will you enter my service?
7417Sarpi( to the viceroy) Are you quite sure that such is the king''s wish?
7417Say now, whether it was Don Ramon or I who originated the new power which the sea has felt to- day?
7417Senora?
7417Sheriff''s Office Do I hear more?
7417The Captain And suppose that some ambitious woman has paid for your life, that she give it in exchange for another''s?
7417The Captain Let us end this, and tell me what proof of your errand you can give?
7417The Captain Now, how can a man of such base condition as he is throw you into such terror?
7417The Captain What if I am?
7417The Captain( alone at the front of the stage) What secret has this miserable creature discovered?
7417The Duke of Lerma You were not wounded then?
7417The Duke of Olmedo Who said I was?
7417The Duke of Olmedo( falling on one knee) Will the king deign to pardon a delay-- unpardonable?
7417The Grand Inquisitor Chance?
7417The Grand Inquisitor Do you know who he was?
7417The Grand Inquisitor Surely, the king will not expose himself to such peril?
7417The Grand Inquisitor Well, my son, how are you?
7417The Marchioness And you want me to repeat this nonsense to the king?
7417The Marchioness But what are you going to ask him?
7417The Marchioness But what is the project about?
7417The Marchioness Has that man come back?
7417The Marchioness Indeed?
7417The Marchioness Were you not my enemy?
7417The Marchioness( pointing out Quinola) Is this our man?
7417The Queen And what if the duke fails to come?
7417The Queen You do not seem to be astonished, sire?
7417The court is an odd place, I should like to succeed there; how is it to be done?
7417The famous Don Ramon, who has expounded the causes of so many natural phenomena, which hitherto had been thought to happen without cause?
7417The question is, what would guarantee your absolute silence?
7417To eat ortolans?
7417To enter my service?
7417We three will stand together; we will go-- Faustine Where?
7417What can they be doing in the square at this hour?
7417What can you accomplish without gold?
7417What could I do against the authority of my father?
7417What do I see?
7417What do I see?
7417What do you desire?
7417What do you mean?
7417What does Quinola desire?
7417What have I done to suffer such defeats, such insults and such outrages?
7417What have I ever asked of you?
7417What is it?
7417What is the age of the viceroy?
7417What would you?
7417Where are the proofs of this?
7417Where do you come from?
7417Where is the plan, the elevation, the section, the working drawings of the machine?
7417Where would I be if I had given you my daughter?
7417Which of us two has lost his head?
7417Who are you?
7417Who are you?
7417Who has given him leave thus boldly to forsake the duties of his office?
7417Will you arrange with my grandson''s servant for the sale of this jewel?
7417Will you assist me?
7417Will you get out?
7417Would the favorite of the king ruin me?
7417Would you give him up if that were for his interest?
7417Would you oppose the perfidy of a useful love with the loyalty of a love that is blind?
7417You do n''t appear to be hungry, senor?
7417You do n''t seem to have much confidence in the star of my grandson?
7417You here?
7417You know the reason why clouds mount upwards?
7417refer to circumstances under which they were originally granted?
7417senora, what will become of you if you love him in this way?
7417senora-- Faustine Could you take it back again?
7417what would have become of me without you?
7417you love me in spite of all, do n''t you?
7417you scoundrel, what do you propose to do?
15878( Aloud) And so you are quite resigned to this?
15878( Aloud) But what was it all about?
15878( Aloud) Did you say pledges of my sincerity?
15878( Aloud) Do you know that I would rather die than live without him?
15878( Aloud) Father, I did n''t mean what I said, but suppose I felt a love of that kind and it was so violent that I was likely to die of it?
15878( Aloud) How is it, Pauline, you did not put any sugar in your father''s coffee?
15878( Aloud) How is this?
15878( Aloud) Mademoiselle, will you at least permit me to feel that I am not in disgrace and that I may stay here a few days?
15878( Aloud) Sir, why should poor young girls-- Godard Poor?
15878( Aloud) We differ in our views on this subject, but do you know why I prefer your adorable Pauline?
15878( Aloud) What is the matter with you, my pet?
15878( Aloud) What were you saying to each other?
15878( Aloud) Whom are you complaining of now, Marguerite?
15878( Aside) Married?
15878( Aside) What shall I say?
15878( He takes her on his knee) Now, do you really think, my pet, that an old trooper like me does n''t understand your resolution to remain single?
15878( To Ferdinand) May I tell this to my daughter?
15878( To Godard) Why do n''t you ask her if such is the case?
15878( To Pauline) Ah, M. Ferdinand is not then, after all the man who-- whom you have distinguished by your favor?
15878( To Vernon) Doctor, can you have been an accomplice?
15878( To Vernon) Is Pauline still alive?
15878( To the General) Would not that be nice, dear?
15878( To the General) You are tired, it seems, of twelve years of happiness?
15878( To the doctor) Doctor, you will take yours as usual, I suppose?
15878( Whispers to the General) Is this keeping your promise to me?
15878Am I actually accused of it?
15878Am I asleep or awake?
15878Am I losing my senses?
15878Am I not, have I ceased for one moment to be a good father?
15878And in what way?
15878And listen to me-- Some one must have taken my key,--can you not understand?
15878And now with regard to the marriage settlement?
15878And so you are sick?
15878And that reminds me-- that angel of your dreams, that Gertrude of yours, whatever has become of her?
15878And what of my father?
15878And what, pray, is the matter with you?
15878And you, come now, do you not always act as I wish?
15878Are you going to kill me also?
15878But are you quite sure, Vernon?
15878But come, tell me?
15878But do you know the reason why?
15878But do you know where Ferdinand is?
15878But how is it that he is more successful than I am, who have an income of forty thousand?
15878But may I ask what has brought you here?
15878But tell me, mademoiselle, am I not to you a humble and devoted mother?
15878But tell me, will your friend know the place where you are hiding?
15878But the question is, does he love her?
15878But what reason have you for distrusting Gertrude?
15878But where can they have met?
15878But where did you carry it?
15878But where will you conceal them?
15878But which do you place first,--this hatred for traitors, or your own honor?
15878But who would hinder you from marrying him?
15878By what right do you-- you, the parasite of the house, pretend to have an explanation with the Comtesse de Grandchamp?
15878Can there be any fire?
15878Can this be her last sigh?
15878Come, tell me, is there not some misunderstanding here?
15878Could you suppose that I was the accomplice of an evil action wrought against you, whom I love as if you were my daughter?
15878De Grandchamp likes my conversation no better than my person?
15878Did you say for the last eighteen months?
15878Do you believe me capable of a crime like this?
15878Do you dare to accuse me?
15878Do you do it from necessity?
15878Do you feel so?
15878Do you know one?
15878Do you know what it is that makes me seek an alliance with you above all others?
15878Do you love Pauline?
15878Do you not know that Madame de Grandchamp put me to sleep with opium?
15878Do you see I must provide for him and his mother?
15878Do you think I am afraid of anything?
15878Do you think that I would have made an attack upon her life?
15878Do you think that our happiness can escape envy?
15878Do you understand?
15878Do you understand?
15878Do you want me also to forego your society which is so pleasant, so agreeable to us?
15878Do you wish to be the death of your father?
15878Doctor, can we remain here a few moments without danger to the sick lady?
15878Doctor, what will become of him?
15878Does his good fortune consist in the fact that he is my father''s clerk?
15878Does n''t she live near Saint- Melo?
15878Even our doctor-- The General Do you mean Vernon?
15878Felix Is there anything I can do for you, sir?
15878Felix Madame, shall I bring in the coffee?
15878Felix The General?
15878Felix What can be her scheme?
15878Felix( aside) What is this old woman grumbling about?
15878Felix( looking inquiringly at Pauline) M. Godard asks if you will see him?
15878Ferdinand Against my will?
15878Ferdinand And what brings you to our quiet factory?
15878Ferdinand And what has she been doing?
15878Ferdinand But how came it about that Gertrude has ended by loving me so sincerely?
15878Ferdinand Confessed what?
15878Ferdinand Do you think I would have asked your advice if the only difficulty lay in the attainment of this trite and easy solution of the problem?
15878Ferdinand Do you think if I were, I should have remained in this house?
15878Ferdinand General, can this be true?
15878Ferdinand How is it, mademoiselle, when your stepmother, and your father agree?
15878Ferdinand Kill you?
15878Ferdinand My position?
15878Ferdinand Who could have told you such a foolish thing?
15878Ferdinand Would you fight, General, with the dead?
15878Ferdinand( to Gertrude) Madame, wo n''t you take my place in the game?
15878For you know the whole affair, do n''t you?
15878Gentlemen, can I offer you a cup of coffee?
15878Gentlemen, tell me what has taken place since yesterday evening, when I left Pauline slightly indisposed?
15878Gertrude After the few words which we have exchanged this evening, why should we now indulge in the language of hypocrisy?
15878Gertrude Am I the victim of one of Godard''s jokes?
15878Gertrude An accomplice in what?
15878Gertrude And do you really mean that?
15878Gertrude And now, Pauline, how do you feel?
15878Gertrude And what means do you possess formidable enough to compel me to do so?
15878Gertrude And who told you?
15878Gertrude But if her father should marry her to some one else?
15878Gertrude Can it be true?
15878Gertrude Death!--And I?
15878Gertrude Do not you men die for your outraged honor, for a word, for a gesture?
15878Gertrude Do you accuse me then of something further?
15878Gertrude Do you know what Godard will say?
15878Gertrude Do you like much or little sugar?
15878Gertrude Do you really believe it?
15878Gertrude Doctor, have you seen the papers?
15878Gertrude Doctor, would you like another cup of tea?
15878Gertrude Does he ever go to bed later than that?
15878Gertrude Does n''t she look beautiful?
15878Gertrude How are you now, my child?
15878Gertrude How has it turned out, M. Godard?
15878Gertrude I can take your place here, doctor, if that is so, ca n''t I?
15878Gertrude I?
15878Gertrude In your room?
15878Gertrude Is there any merit in loving an excellent husband and a daughter such as these?
15878Gertrude It is very naughty of you to act in that way; how did you come to think of such a trick?
15878Gertrude M. de Rimonville?
15878Gertrude M. de Rimonville?
15878Gertrude Madame Charny?
15878Gertrude May I ask you why?
15878Gertrude Not much cream, I suppose?
15878Gertrude Now that we are alone, do you know why I have summoned your father?
15878Gertrude Ought I to keep silence?--Ought I to speak?
15878Gertrude Pauline, will you go instead?
15878Gertrude She, headstrong?
15878Gertrude So you are going to start without telling me, Ferdinand?
15878Gertrude The war, then, is to continue?
15878Gertrude There was a joke between us and we were indulging in a laugh; were n''t we, Pauline?
15878Gertrude Was it necessary to tell me that?
15878Gertrude Was the vase of flowers in your room last night?
15878Gertrude What do you mean by speaking to me in this tone?
15878Gertrude What is that you said?
15878Gertrude What is the matter with you, Pauline?
15878Gertrude What were we discussing?
15878Gertrude Where will you seek them?
15878Gertrude Whom do you mean by some one?
15878Gertrude Will you give him up?
15878Gertrude Yes, sir-- But by whom?
15878Gertrude You have not been false to me?
15878Gertrude You have not read them all?
15878Gertrude You have the cup?
15878Gertrude You said you would leave your father, would flee from France; you would give your life, your honor, your salvation for Ferdinand?
15878Gertrude( aside) She must have them about her,--but how can I be sure of that?
15878Gertrude( coming forward to Godard) Well, how are things going?
15878Gertrude( kneeling before Pauline) What have I done to you?
15878Gertrude( pointing to Pauline) Poor child, you see she is sleeping?
15878Gertrude( to Godard) Her heart occupied?
15878Gertrude( to Godard, as she offers him some coffee) Are you aware, sir, that you would make a very indifferent preceptor?
15878Gertrude( to Vernon) Doctor, how is it that you, who are so good, try to infuse doubts into the heart of Grandchamp?
15878Gertrude( to the General) Did you find it there last night?
15878Gertrude( to the General) You seem to be indisposed?
15878Gertrude( to the General, who seems as if he were bewildered by the last words of Vernon) What is the matter with you?
15878Godard And did you agree with her, even in the slightest way?
15878Godard Do n''t you understand me?
15878Godard How can that be when one is in love?
15878Godard How could I ask her anything?
15878Godard Mademoiselle-- Pauline Sir?
15878Godard More?
15878Godard Pitiful?
15878Godard What do you mean?
15878Godard What is this talk that you are alluding to?
15878Godard Why do you wish me to do this?
15878Godard Why not?
15878Godard You mean the young Duke of Reichstadt?
15878Godard( aside) And why does she say that?
15878Godard( aside) Is it possible I have a rival?
15878Godard( at the front of the stage) Let me see, what fine and dainty speech can I make to her?
15878Godard( to Pauline) Did you say,"poor fellow,"mademoiselle?
15878Godard( who has taken Napoleon aside) Would you like to play a nice trick on somebody?
15878Has not Madame de Grandchamp said anything to you about the subject nearest my heart?
15878Have you added to its glory?
15878Have you come to take your revenge, doctor?
15878Have you never thought of this fine young fellow?
15878Have you not forced me to deny, both to my father and to Ferdinand, my love, my glory, my life?
15878Have you saved your country?
15878He is married?
15878He went to bed very late, did he not?
15878Here is this child, of whom I was so fond, murdered, poisoned-- and by whom?
15878Holy Virgin, what vows shall I make to thee?
15878How is it you''ve thrust yourself into such a hornets''nest?
15878I am at once accuser, tribunal, sentence and executioner-- Come, madame, tell us what you have to say?
15878I hope you are come to spend the day with us?
15878I, the mother of a child, before whom I would not wish to be disgraced?
15878I?
15878I?
15878If you love me, will you punish yourself-- will you punish me-- because your love has been submitted to a test?
15878Is he here now?
15878Is he likely to lose his reason?
15878Is it because I am in love with you, and every genuine and pure love is by nature exclusive?
15878Is it because he praised M. Ferdinand?
15878Is it in an affair of your heart that she wishes to do you harm?
15878Is it possible that mademoiselle should have concealed from me that her real love was being opposed?
15878Is that plain enough?
15878Is this sufficient humiliation for me?
15878It is because she sees her lot in life decided-- Vernon( to the General) Her lot decided?
15878Kill him?
15878Let me see, have I done everything?
15878Madame de Grandchamp has pleaded my cause?
15878Marguerite But why is this?
15878Marguerite Does mademoiselle feel well again?
15878Marguerite Ruined!--But, mademoiselle, what is come over you?
15878Marguerite You are sure that your reasons for starting away are very urgent?
15878Marguerite( running in) What is it, sir?
15878Married?
15878My Ferdinand married?
15878Napoleon Do people die?
15878Napoleon Have I been good?
15878Napoleon Papa, papa, did n''t you say I could ride Coco?
15878Napoleon Papa, what is justice?
15878Napoleon Why, of course, it was because she was too scared; did n''t you hear her say"oh!"?
15878Napoleon( entering) Papa, I have won the school medal-- Good- day, mamma-- and where is Pauline?
15878Napoleon( to Felix) Do you hear that?
15878Napoleon( to Pauline) And how is it you do not kiss me?
15878Pauline And have not you accomplished the murder of my happiness?
15878Pauline And she is still in love with you?
15878Pauline And the letters?
15878Pauline And this is what you call being good humored?
15878Pauline And why?
15878Pauline And would you start at once?
15878Pauline And you think that I will quietly let you marry Ferdinand?
15878Pauline And you, madame?
15878Pauline Are we not carrying on a warfare of savages?
15878Pauline Are you aware that my sleep just now was not a natural one?
15878Pauline Are you married?
15878Pauline Can you keep a secret?
15878Pauline Do you still continue in this strain?
15878Pauline Do you wish to see me die?
15878Pauline Go to him yourself, madame, and tell him; and then come here with my father, and-- Gertrude And what?
15878Pauline How can I do that?
15878Pauline How do you know that?
15878Pauline Lucky?
15878Pauline Madame, what are you going to do?
15878Pauline May I not be permitted, if I choose, to remain single?
15878Pauline Oh, why did your father betray the Emperor?
15878Pauline Really?--Would you leave France for me?
15878Pauline She is in love with you; but you, are you in love with her?
15878Pauline Sir, have I ever given you the right, by a single look, or by a single word, to utter my name in this way?
15878Pauline Tell me what it is?
15878Pauline To my father?
15878Pauline War, madame?
15878Pauline Well, then, innocent young persons-- be so very fastidious about the character of the man who presents himself as their lord and master?
15878Pauline Why should weak young girls-- Godard Weak?
15878Pauline Would you prefer some coffee?
15878Pauline You ask me why?
15878Pauline( to Gertrude) Do you know why I came to draw you from the abyss which had engulfed you?
15878Pauline( to Godard) And what did they say?
15878Pauline, what is death made of?
15878Pauline?
15878Ramel And are the remains of the poison contained in this cup so discernible, and present in such a quantity, as to furnish legal proof?
15878Ramel And what are you doing here?
15878Ramel And why?
15878Ramel Did you make any use of the arsenic, madame?
15878Ramel Has M. Baudrillon seen the accused?
15878Ramel Have you anything more to tell me?
15878Ramel Have you anything to say in your defence which would lead us to cancel this terrible sentence?
15878Ramel He is twelve years old?
15878Ramel How is it that your father, who had command of the Royal Guard, a most brilliant position, died without leaving you anything, not even a patron?
15878Ramel How is this?
15878Ramel Is it anything criminal?
15878Ramel Is this the General''s child?
15878Ramel M. Baudrillon, do you identify this man as the person who bought arsenic from you two days ago?
15878Ramel What is it that you will forgive her?
15878Ramel You believe so, do you?
15878Ramel( to Vernon) Where did Madame de Grandchamp send you?
15878SCENE FIFTEENTH Gertrude( alone, leaning against the closet in which the cup is locked up) Where can he have hidden that cup?
15878SCENE THIRTEENTH Vernon( alone) What can have set by the ears two women who have hitherto lived in peace?
15878She has taken away the keys from me-- from me who always had the confidence of the former mistress; do you know why she did so?
15878She is sleeping?
15878She must be asleep-- she went to bed so late!--would it be possible to lock her in her room?
15878She?
15878Suppose I were in love with the son of one of those whom you detest?
15878Suppose you write a word to him?
15878Tell me what ails you?
15878Tell me what has she been doing?
15878Tell me who he is?
15878Tell me why you so distinctly refused Godard yesterday, and yet, accept him to- day?
15878Tell me, Ferdinand, of course your family is an honorable one?
15878Tell me, can nothing save you?
15878Tell me, do you know what it is to have to invent new lies, on the spur of the moment, every day,--to live with a dagger at your heart?
15878Tell me, my little Pauline, is your engagement with Godard to be quite voluntary?
15878Tell me, who has filled the head of such an innocent girl as you are with ideas like these?
15878That is the way you look at the world, is it?
15878The General A story?
15878The General Am I to understand, then, my daughter, that you are not in love with him?
15878The General And so my little girl has not much confidence in the father who loves her so?
15878The General And what are your reasons, my daughter?
15878The General And why not, mademoiselle?
15878The General And why should there not be something between them?
15878The General Are you alarmed about Pauline?
15878The General Are you in love with anybody else?
15878The General Are you trying to torture your father?
15878The General But how could you be brought here by the crime of Champagne, an old soldier for whom I would stand security?
15878The General But tell me all about it?
15878The General But unhappy child, wherefore must you die?
15878The General But, sir, to what circumstance am I to attribute your presence here?
15878The General But-- Gertrude( to Pauline) Tell me, how do you feel now, my sweet angel?
15878The General Dear child, do tell us?
15878The General Did n''t you hear us knocking?
15878The General Did you speak?
15878The General Ferdinand then is your friend?
15878The General Francis?
15878The General Gentle, did you say?
15878The General Godard, my wife wants to know if you would like some coffee?
15878The General Godard?
15878The General Granted; but does not the heart count for a good deal in this?
15878The General Have you won any battles?
15878The General How is this?
15878The General I?
15878The General In what way?
15878The General It seems to me that there are a great many people here-- What must be done?
15878The General Mine?
15878The General My wife mixed up in such an affair?
15878The General Really?
15878The General Remorse?
15878The General The law?
15878The General The state''s attorney at my house?
15878The General Vernon, what in the name of everything are you doing?
15878The General Well, how are you?
15878The General What are you saying?
15878The General What do you mean then?
15878The General Will you be pleased to take a seat?
15878The General You?
15878The General( aside) Can it be possible that these two are at variance?
15878The General( aside) What is this?
15878The General( aside) Why should my wife and my daughter deceive me?
15878The General( stammering like a man who has lost his speech) I-- I-- I-- Vernon General, what is it?
15878The General( to Ramel) Sir, what brings you here?
15878The General( to Ramel) You are a friend of Ferdinand''s, I believe?
15878The General( to Vernon) What are you muttering about?
15878The General( to his wife) What ails you, dearest?
15878The General( who has risen from his seat) What is the matter with you, my dear child?
15878The General( who sees Ramel and Gertrude talking together) Is my wife to be called to this investigation?
15878The Magistrate Did you send him away to attend a workman at Pre- l''Eveque?
15878The Magistrate Do you hear him, madame?
15878The Magistrate Have you ever made any use of that arsenic?
15878The Magistrate Is this the truth, mademoiselle?
15878The Magistrate( to the doctor) Have you made your examination yet, sir?
15878The fact of it is, I see rather too much and my presence is not desired-- The General( in a rage) What are you talking about?
15878The factory?
15878This M. Ferdinand, whom you think you know, is an exceedingly crafty fellow-- Pauline( aside) Can he possibly know his real name?
15878This night we must find some refuge or other-- But where?
15878To whom do you refer?
15878Vernon Am I certain?
15878Vernon And you believe this?
15878Vernon Are you going to fly into a passion again?
15878Vernon How is this?
15878Vernon How?
15878Vernon I see, my child, that between you and your stepmother, there are secrets of life and death?
15878Vernon I, a parasite?
15878Vernon Is there a closet anywhere here in which I can lock up something?
15878Vernon Madame?
15878Vernon Madame?
15878Vernon That I have obtained a confession from you?
15878Vernon You admit, then, that you put opium in her tea?
15878Vernon( aside) Am I dreaming?
15878Vernon( aside) What possible motive can there be for a young child to keep silence, when she is the victim of such an act of treachery as this?
15878Vernon( going to her) My child?
15878Vernon( outside) May I come in, Pauline?
15878Vernon, you had better go and see him-- Vernon Does n''t he live at Pre- l''Eveque?
15878We are going to act in harmony, are we not?
15878What can be happening?
15878What can have delayed M. de Grandchamp?
15878What did you say about the flowers for my daughter''s hair?
15878What do you demand?
15878What do you want with me?
15878What do you want?
15878What has happened to me?
15878What is going on here?
15878What is it?
15878What is justice like?
15878What is justice made of?
15878What is love made of?
15878What is she doing?
15878What paper is that?
15878What reason have I for not giving you my confidence?
15878What shall I do?
15878What shall the waking be?
15878What were you discussing?
15878What were you going to say?
15878What would you do if the barrier which separates you from Pauline were never broken down?
15878What, is there another trial going on here?
15878When he came to this house, was he not aware that I was here?
15878Where am I?
15878Where are the letters?
15878Who has been telling you this story?
15878Why did Madame de Grandchamp wish to drug her stepdaughter?
15878Why did you call out, Pauline?
15878Why is he lucky?
15878Why then does he make a secret of it?
15878Will you dare tell me, now, mademoiselle, that you do not love him?
15878Will you force me to call for some one?
15878Would it not be better to disobey him?
15878Would n''t I have told you?
15878Would not I have been your wife to- day, if I had not set your happiness above the satisfaction of my love?
15878You did your duty yesterday in preserving the cup as evidence; but why did you not go further?
15878You do not want to kill me?
15878You find yours good?
15878You have never seen me, have you?
15878You must know that M. Ferdinand is-- Pauline Is--?
15878You were laughing, my pet?
15878de Grandchamp, whom we saw two days ago full of health, and even of happiness, is the result of a crime?
15878de Grandchamp?
15878de Grandchamp?
15878sir?
15878what is this?
6861( Aloud) And do you wish me to shadow my master?
6861( Aloud) Raoul, my son, what ails you?
6861( Aloud) So you were there also?
6861( Aloud) What shall I tell the baron brings you here?
6861( Aloud) Whose room is this?
6861( Aloud) Will you examine the documents?
6861( Aside) Have I not said too much to him?
6861( Enter Lafouraille) And who are you?
6861( He turns to Mademoiselle de Vaudrey) She can not have told you everything, dear aunt?
6861( Lafouraille makes a sign) A new one coming?
6861( To Joseph) Any spicy stories at meal- times?
6861( To Lafouraille) And what of the youngster?
6861( To Raoul) A duel?
6861( To Saint- Charles) And what do you say about all this?
6861( To Saint- Charles) And what were you going to do at the house of Monsieur de Frescas?
6861( To Saint- Charles) Where is Raoul?
6861( To the duchess) He paid me back well, did he not?
6861( To the duchess) The child will forget me; will the mother also?
6861( To the duke) The king could at your grace''s intercession grant me a pardon, but who then would take my hand in his?
6861( aside) Why should my wife have concealed a letter of such slight importance?
6861A duel?
6861A footman( as he enters) Will her grace the duchess see Monsieur de Frescas?
6861A steward beat you at play; do you recollect?
6861All( surrounding Vautrin) Would you abandon us, Vautrin?
6861And do you think the warm reception given by her to his son''s rival could escape the duke''s notice?
6861And have you not been abandoned since your childhood?
6861And have you still your fair Italian?
6861And may I not inquire of madame whether the Frescas of Aragon are extinct or not?
6861And no one has been taken?
6861And ought not the duke to give us assurance of silence and release?
6861And that I myself feel, what I would only say to you father, whom I love, that I have little love for her?
6861And the duke?
6861And was Philosopher also absent- minded?
6861And what business was the steward then engaged in?
6861And what shall I say to his lordship the baron?
6861And who would refuse to do anything for Vautrin?
6861And you, Lafouraille, you can become Count of Saint Helena; and what would you like to be, Buteux?
6861Are the principals of equal rank?
6861Are you surprised that my blood boils at the sight of this strange woman''s child occupying the place of the lawful heir?
6861As for the other, who could help it?
6861But are you willing to do for me in Montsorel''s house, what Montsorel sent you to do here?
6861But beautiful, with curly hair-- The Duchess It was thus you saw him?
6861But is this really the cause of your gloom?
6861But what is the matter with you?
6861But what is to be the main object of my investigations?
6861But you went into society yesterday; did you do anything?
6861Buteux And where will you find them?
6861Buteux Do you take this young man for a god?
6861Can a fellow forget that?
6861Can not I be alone one moment?
6861Can she have forgotten it?
6861Child, can you not realize that in this world there are pitiless necessities?
6861Could I live without you?
6861Did I call?
6861Did I not give you an Arabian horse, to drive mad with envy the foreign and native dandies of the Bois de Boulogne?
6861Did I not suffer sufficiently yesterday?
6861Did he not, by imposing silence upon me towards his wife, betray his suspicion that I was dangerous to him?
6861Did not you, Jacques-- Vautrin What do you mean?
6861Do we ever receive any one without first learning what his family is?
6861Do you dare give your orders in my house?
6861Do you know that I have long felt, and now at last admit to myself, that my mother hates me?
6861Do you mean monsieur the marquis?
6861Do you see what I mean?
6861Do you want to snatch up everything here?
6861Do you wish me to restore the opera- glass?
6861Do you wish me to suffer any further insults?
6861Do you wish to know the contents of the letter?
6861Does he play?
6861Does he think he knows nothing about them?
6861Does she think she can dissemble under the eyes of women?
6861Felicite What is it, your grace?
6861Felicite( alone) A young man for her?
6861Felicite( looking for the letter in the book) Now, where is that letter of madame''s?
6861Fil- de- Soie Is it some one burning with curiosity?
6861Fil- de- Soie What is he going to bring us to?
6861Fil- de- Soie When are we all to be capitalists?
6861Has she been waiting for the present opportunity to speak?
6861Has this young man any vices?
6861Have I become an usurer of this kind?
6861Have I ever compromised it?
6861Have n''t I paid dearly for the assurance that his days were not to be shortened?
6861Have we any right to judge him?
6861Have you anything else to do?
6861Have you been long in this place?
6861Have you forgotten how seriously the dead interfere with the peace of the living?
6861He, Raoul de Frescas!--why then his persistent silence?
6861How can you be descended from the house of De Frescas, which is extinct?
6861How could it be otherwise?
6861How did you manage to eat up a fortune so cleverly won?
6861I showed him the world and mankind under their true light-- Yet now he is about to renounce me-- The Duchess My son ungrateful?
6861I suppose then that you enjoy peace of mind in this house?
6861If I meet with ingratitude from you, to whom can I venture hereafter to do a service?
6861In the name of mercy, where is my son?
6861In whom shall I henceforth find an interest?
6861Inez And my father?
6861Inez Did you not mention Frescas among other names?
6861Inez General, if the matter concerns my father, you will allow me to remain here?
6861Inez Has my father received our letters, general?
6861Inez Has not my confidence in you been boundless?
6861Inez Is that the great piece of news in which you have been absorbed?
6861Inez To thank you, sir?
6861Inez Unreasonable?
6861Inez here?
6861Inez( to the marquis) A nobody sir?
6861Is it concerning Raoul?
6861Is it not I who have fostered your sense of honor?
6861Is it possible?
6861Is it true you desire Inez de Christoval?
6861Is the furniture suggestive of anything?
6861Is the house on fire?
6861Is the reckless fellow favored by her?
6861Is this gentleman, like you, the only son of a noble house?
6861It was colossal; how did you lose it?
6861Joseph And what do you come to do at this hour?
6861Joseph And what of mine?
6861Joseph At this hour?
6861Joseph But if he comes home, wo n''t you be afraid?
6861Joseph But where are you going?
6861Joseph Here?
6861Joseph In everything?
6861Joseph What do you require of me?
6861Joseph Where?
6861Joseph Your men are well concealed, but you doubtless intend to leave the house?
6861Joseph( to the Duchesse de Montsorel) As Mademoiselle de Vaudrey is not in, and Monsieur de Frescas is here, will your grace see him?
6861Lafouraille A steward?
6861Lafouraille Are you letting him go?
6861Lafouraille But afterwards, will you spare his life?
6861Lafouraille Can I go now?
6861Lafouraille Can he be waiting here?
6861Lafouraille Did not you, Monsieur Vautrin, require thirty thousand francs that this young man might live in princely style?
6861Lafouraille Now, now, surely people can have a little fun?
6861Lafouraille On one occasion?
6861Lafouraille Sir?
6861Lafouraille Well, are you satisfied?
6861Lafouraille( alone) Would my late excellent father, who advised me to frequent none but the best society, have been satisfied with me yesterday?
6861Lafouraille( to Buteux) Can not you keep silence?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey After twenty- two years of mourning, what possible occurrence can give you ground for hope?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Already here?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey And shall her sufferings during those twenty years count for nothing?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey And was the duke present?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey But are not honor and a husband''s vengeance dearer to him than his faith as a gentleman?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey But has it never occurred to you, my dear sir, that Louise is innocent?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Can a stranger have usurped the place, the name, the title, the property of the real child?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Has my niece given you no orders for the morning?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Have you come upon any traces of your lost son?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Inez, who is engaged to your son, the marquis?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Louise, would you resort to such means as this?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey What do you propose doing?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey What is the matter, Louise?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey Yet you could never show yourself a bad mother, could you?
6861Mademoiselle de Vaudrey You sometimes come here to see Monsieur de Montsorel, according to what Joseph tells us?
6861Magic and hell will not intimidate you?
6861Must he complain of the injunction which delayed the presentation of his play?
6861Must he proceed to prove that_ Vautrin_ is as innocent a work as a drama of Berquin''s?
6861Must the author explain his work?
6861Often while reading the letters you sign as if-- Raoul Then you know all--?
6861Ought he not to be preferred before all?
6861Permit me also to ask how can you dare to interfere with the family of Montsorel in their pursuit of an heiress?
6861Philosopher And did n''t I sell our custom to four different coach- builders--5,000 francs each clip-- and the man who got the order lost all?
6861Philosopher Is there such a class?
6861Philosopher Tell me, is he one of our kind?
6861Philosopher Yes, and yet you fly into a rage-- Fil- de- Soie How are you going to keep house now?
6861Philosopher You want nothing more of us?
6861Putting aside my love for Inez, could I do better?
6861Raoul Am I in the hands of a demon, or of an angel?
6861Raoul And do you think that I will consent to such villainies?
6861Raoul And who are they?
6861Raoul And-- are you still to have a place in my life?
6861Raoul Are we separated forever?
6861Raoul But have I any right to ask this?
6861Raoul But have I the power?
6861Raoul Do I see before me a genie, a spirit materialized from the Arabian Nights?
6861Raoul Have I not been humbled sufficiently?
6861Raoul If people distrust those whom they do not know, are n''t they sometimes likely, at very short notice, to know rather too much about them?
6861Raoul If you love me, why do you mock me thus in the hour of my despair?
6861Raoul Is this a sermon?
6861Raoul My brother?
6861Raoul Nothing?
6861Raoul What horrible mockery is this, Vautrin?
6861Raoul What is that?
6861Raoul Without seconds?
6861Raoul Your congratulations?
6861Raoul here?
6861Raoul( bowing to the Duchesse de Christoval and her daughter, aside) How is this?
6861Saint- Charles And did she find out?
6861Saint- Charles And not Jacques Collin?
6861Saint- Charles Did you know her?
6861Saint- Charles Does he cheat?
6861Saint- Charles Does your grace belong to the opposition?
6861Saint- Charles From either party?
6861Saint- Charles Has not your grace told me that he is a young man?
6861Saint- Charles He is a baron?
6861Saint- Charles I accept the offer; but what are the profits?
6861Saint- Charles Is Madame de Montsorel then interested in this young man?
6861Saint- Charles May I venture to inform you of facts which ordinarily would be kept from a mother?
6861Saint- Charles Tell me the truth, you are expecting some one?
6861Saint- Charles What are your commands?
6861Saint- Charles What next?
6861Saint- Charles Why not, your grace?
6861Saint- Charles You are very much interested, madame, in their being proved forgeries, I presume?
6861Saint- Charles( aside) Ah-- We shall see?
6861Saint- Charles( aside) Indeed?
6861Saint- Charles( aside) Whose side shall I take, husband''s or wife''s?
6861Saint- Charles( giving him a letter, aside) Does he know my antecedents, or will he simply recognize me as Saint- Charles?
6861Saint- Charles( to the duke) Does your grace hear them?
6861Shall I be strong enough, even with the backing of the king, to overcome this complication of circumstances?
6861Shall he attack the newspapers?
6861Shall we air in public courts past occurrences which will show that I am not free from reproach, while you are infamous?
6861Tell me, what is the source of your wealth, is it an honorable one?
6861That you are the Chevalier de Saint- Charles?
6861The Duchess A bad mother?
6861The Duchess And have you taken care of my son?
6861The Duchess And he loves you?
6861The Duchess And is it not much more honorable to violate such an oath, than to remain faithful to all others?
6861The Duchess And what has become of Monsieur de Christoval?
6861The Duchess And what proof have you of this?
6861The Duchess And who, pray, is this Amoagos, the arbiter, as you say, of Mexico''s destiny?
6861The Duchess And who, pray, may you be, sir?
6861The Duchess And you brought him up?
6861The Duchess And-- without stain?
6861The Duchess At this moment?
6861The Duchess Bare- foot, it may be?
6861The Duchess But could he feel affection for you, you a criminal whom one could at any moment give up-- Vautrin To justice do you mean?
6861The Duchess But has that wretch spoken the truth in revealing what you are and whence you come?
6861The Duchess But, dear aunt, do you know at what price he has granted me the life of Fernand?
6861The Duchess Can a compact dictated by terror be looked upon as an avowal of guilt?
6861The Duchess Could I give a thought to my husband?
6861The Duchess Did you still harbor the horrible thought of refusing him to his mother?
6861The Duchess Do n''t you see, silly child, that your happiness is identical with mine?
6861The Duchess Excuses?
6861The Duchess Have you any news which my daughter should not hear?
6861The Duchess Have you weighed well the consequences of this threat?
6861The Duchess Have you, up to the present day, respected yours?
6861The Duchess He the murderer?
6861The Duchess How has Monsieur de Christoval disposed of his daughter''s hand?
6861The Duchess I?
6861The Duchess Is he not the man of your choice?
6861The Duchess Is not a revelation such as that more than sufficient warrant for the rapture of a mother''s heart?
6861The Duchess No, but a child-- Saint- Charles You mean your child, do n''t you?
6861The Duchess Raoul is undoubtedly my son then?
6861The Duchess Since when have you ventured to enter my apartment without previously sending me word and asking my leave?
6861The Duchess Sir, any sum you may ask shall be yours, if you can prove to me that Monsieur Raoul de Frescas-- Saint- Charles Is a criminal?
6861The Duchess Tell us at once about my husband, general; where is he now?
6861The Duchess Those two men then are your agents?
6861The Duchess What has happened to Monsieur de Christoval?
6861The Duchess You, general?
6861The Duchess( approaching Vautrin) What is it?
6861The Duchess( fixing her eyes on Saint- Charles) And who has had the impertinence to send you to address me?
6861The Duchesse de Christoval Is Raoul here?
6861The Duchesse de Christoval The interest which yesterday you manifested in Monsieur de Frescas has, I see, changed to indifference?
6861The Duchesse de Christoval Well, my dear?
6861The Duchesse de Christoval What are you talking about, Inez?
6861The Duchesse de Christoval Will you come, madame?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel Dear husband, is it not in your power to obtain his pardon?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel Monsieur de Frescas, then, was born in Mexico?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel Then Raoul has a family?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel You know?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( alone) Where can I hide the certificate of my son''s birth?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( aside) Is he to be insulted in my house?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( scrutinizing Vautrin) Is it through this gentleman that all your doubts have been satisfied?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( to Inez) Have you read my letter?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( to Vautrin) Doubtless you have known the family of Monsieur de Frescas for some time?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( to the Duchesse de Christoval) And are you also ignorant of the place where he was born?
6861The Duchesse de Montsorel( to the Duchesse de Christoval) I am told that you mean to give a series of brilliant entertainments?
6861The Duke According to you that would be very easy, would n''t it?
6861The Duke Albert, how can this news of yours interest us?
6861The Duke And what if you had abused it?
6861The Duke And where does he come from?
6861The Duke Are n''t you looking for a letter?
6861The Duke Are not you?
6861The Duke But how did you learn all these facts?
6861The Duke But what are the misfortunes that plunged you into so dark an abyss?
6861The Duke Do you intend to give that certificate of birth?
6861The Duke He has a father, then?
6861The Duke How is it that men endowed with such faculties are found employing them in so lowly a sphere?
6861The Duke If you have asked Monsieur de Frescas to come why do you begin by treating so great a personage with discourtesy?
6861The Duke Is n''t this it?
6861The Duke Is there nothing I can tell you that you do not know?
6861The Duke Say no more, Albert; did you not hear that Monsieur de Frescas is a highly accomplished young man?
6861The Duke There may be some justice in all this, but I do not suppose you expect to change the opinion of the world, or even mine?
6861The Duke What are you driving at?
6861The Duke What do you mean?
6861The Duke What, Raoul de Frescas?
6861The Duke Why do you send him off?
6861The Duke With your brother?
6861The Duke( aside) Has her resignation up to this time been nothing but a pretence?
6861The Duke( aside) How can he have learned so promptly the secret of my morning interview?
6861The Duke( to the Duchesse de Christoval, whom he leads to a seat) I hope we see in this informal visit the beginning of a family intimacy?
6861The Marquis Ah, mother dear, and are you come to witness my defeat?
6861The Marquis And you also are interested in this fellow Raoul?
6861The Marquis And you leave us the right to interpret it?
6861The Marquis Do you realize that both of us can not exist in the same world?
6861The Marquis Does Monsieur de Frescas speak Spanish?
6861The Marquis How have I offended you?
6861The Marquis If you are in danger, father, do you think I can remain quiet?
6861The Marquis Is he not rather a nobody disguised as a prince?
6861The Marquis Is mine then ill- timed?
6861The Marquis Surely you are aware, mademoiselle, that your cousins, the house of Medina- Coeli, have succeeded to it?
6861The Marquis What then is to be done?
6861The Marquis Will Monsieur Raoul de Frescas, then, accept my congratulations?
6861The Marquis Will those on your side stop the duel?
6861The Marquis Will you agree to a meeting without seconds-- a fight to the death?
6861The Marquis You are seriously afraid, madame, I perceive, of encouraging my hopes?
6861The Marquis( looking at Vautrin) May I know the name of your friend?
6861The duchess and her daughter went off in high dudgeon-- The Duke What could have brought them here in the very midst of our discussion?
6861This wretch?
6861Vautrin A young man of refinement, elegance and wit, and twenty- three years of age?
6861Vautrin And I, have I not been for ten years his father?
6861Vautrin And do you quite approve of honesty?
6861Vautrin And it is the same man?
6861Vautrin And mademoiselle?
6861Vautrin And so you have been a politician, have you?
6861Vautrin And what brought you to the house of your rival?
6861Vautrin And what has this to do with the Duc de Montsorel?
6861Vautrin And what is the cause of your despair?
6861Vautrin And why was your predecessor dismissed?
6861Vautrin And you refuse to pledge me in a glass?
6861Vautrin By whom have I to honor to be referred to?
6861Vautrin Can any one explain misfortune?
6861Vautrin Did you give him a commission?
6861Vautrin Did you give him up?
6861Vautrin Did you not say that God and the devil hobnobbed to cast me?
6861Vautrin Did you not say,"By any possible means"?
6861Vautrin Did you rob him?
6861Vautrin Did your remorse prove a good investment?
6861Vautrin Do you again repulse me?
6861Vautrin Do you expect to do things of this kind for long?
6861Vautrin Do you think the boy wishes for a fight to the death?
6861Vautrin Do you wish to obtain Inez?
6861Vautrin Does he call himself also Raoul?
6861Vautrin Does it need an old soldier to interpret the heart of a young man?
6861Vautrin Had you not on one occasion sold your master to him?
6861Vautrin Have you finished?
6861Vautrin I and those two men upstairs-- are we not all liable to prosecution?
6861Vautrin I angling for a dowry?
6861Vautrin I know all.--Are you not touched to the heart?
6861Vautrin If I feared anything, would I be master of you all?
6861Vautrin In what place?
6861Vautrin Is he not known here?
6861Vautrin Is it indeed her grace, the Duchesse de Christoval that I have the honor to address?
6861Vautrin My dear fellow, was n''t she, though?
6861Vautrin Nothing?
6861Vautrin Philosopher is below, as what?
6861Vautrin To Inez?
6861Vautrin Unless he considers himself at liberty, what can we hope to learn from him?
6861Vautrin We can safely laugh now, for I suppose you left her there?
6861Vautrin Well?
6861Vautrin What about?
6861Vautrin What are you saying there?
6861Vautrin What did Raoul say?
6861Vautrin What did you do with the dozen of gold spoons that went with the glass of Madeira?
6861Vautrin What is it, chevalier?
6861Vautrin What is it?
6861Vautrin What is the matter?
6861Vautrin What is thought of them in the servants''hall?
6861Vautrin What new blunder have you committed?
6861Vautrin What reason have you ever had for doubting my word?
6861Vautrin What would you have had me do?
6861Vautrin What?
6861Vautrin Where are you going?
6861Vautrin Where?
6861Vautrin Who could fail to respond with a glow of sympathy to this burst of youthful generosity?
6861Vautrin Why do you want him to forget you?
6861Vautrin Yet I saw you nibbling at the sideboard; what did you take?
6861Vautrin You mean_ you_ would have been down in your luck; you take pretty good care not to be caught again, do n''t you?
6861Vautrin You will shrink from nothing?
6861Vautrin Your son, our son-- yes-- have you not perceived that he is as pure as an angel?
6861Vautrin Yours?
6861Vautrin( aside) Am I to act this part long?
6861Vautrin( to Fil- de- Soie) You?
6861Vautrin( to Joseph) What happened upstairs?
6861Vautrin( to Raoul) What right?
6861Vautrin( to the Duchesse de Christoval) Do you suspect the motive that brings madame here?
6861Vautrin( to the Duchesse de Montsorel) What shall I say to you?
6861Was not his behavior yesterday noble in the extreme?
6861What are you going to do now?
6861What can he have to say to me?
6861What do you know about them?
6861What does she want?
6861What have I done?
6861What have I said?
6861What have you made of my poor child?
6861What is his fortune?
6861What is the character and what the powers of this man?
6861What noise is that?
6861What was this pretty thing?
6861What will be said, when it is known that I am here?
6861What will they think?
6861When Inez is once yours, does it matter what I have done, or who I am?
6861When?
6861Where are they?
6861Where is he?
6861Who gave you boots, you who once went barefoot?
6861Who has proved false to you?
6861Who has wounded you?
6861Who is he?
6861Who is her confessor?
6861Who knows whether it be so or not?
6861Who made provision for your excesses?
6861Who paid your gambling debts?
6861Whom shall I be able to love?
6861Why did you bring us here?
6861Why do you bow me down under a load of falsehoods?
6861Why do you forbid me to confess to you the sufferings of my childhood?
6861Why do you prevent me from searching out my father and mother?
6861Why have you given me the name of the village where you found me?
6861Why should you?
6861Will your grace kindly send every one out of the room?
6861Would that annoy you, father?
6861Would you follow me?
6861Would you have the goodness to tell me whether this young man is sincerely attached to Mademoiselle de Christoval?
6861Would you imprison me to prevent my fighting a duel?
6861Would your father Don Inigo Juan Varago de los Amoagos de Cardaval las Frescas y Peral, allow you to do it, Raoul?
6861Yes, I could acquire a fortune, but who will give me the opportunity?
6861You abuse the right you have to ill- treat a friend-- What are you thinking about?
6861You ask who Raoul de Frescas is?
6861You here, chevalier, and with the duchess?
6861You surely did not see what happened yesterday at the Spanish ambassador''s?
6861You will no longer answer for my son''s safety?
6861You wish, I suppose, to descend from robbery to swindling?
6861Your mother is not dead, is she?
6861mother, do you hear that?
7927After what happened this morning do you suppose I can believe a word you say? 7927 All?
7927Am I not the friend of the family, and do n''t I know much more about you than they do?
7927Am I to turn Protestant before I can visit you?
7927And did you intend,said Flore to the old man,"to give a hundred and fifty thousand francs to your nephew?"
7927And have you only just answered the letter, mademoiselle?
7927And nothing for my comrade and me?
7927And pray, mere Bridau,he cried, in his little cracked voice,"how long are you going to be duped by your cursed brigand of a son?
7927And who is to pay for it?
7927Are you an honest girl?
7927Are you not ashamed to torture a poor child in that way?
7927Are you quite sure he has not made any other will since the one in which he left the property to you?
7927Are you sure,Max said to him, after listening to his grievance,"that you brought your cart to this place?
7927Are you sure?
7927Are you the master here?
7927Are you worthy of love? 7927 As if you did n''t know?
7927At what hour?
7927Besides, after all,added Captain Renard,"the girl is a worthless piece, and if Max does live with her where''s the harm?"
7927But I mean an unmarried woman, like Mademoiselle Rogron, for instance?
7927But I promise to find you some young and agreeable woman with a hundred and fifty thousand francs? 7927 But how about a woman over forty?"
7927But how can you survive it?
7927But if I_ wish_ you to marry Pierrette? 7927 But my furniture?"
7927But what did you say to old Mouilleron?
7927But what has the dear little thing done?
7927But what have I done?
7927But what was Monsieur Gilet doing in the streets at four in the morning?
7927But what''s the matter with her?
7927But when?
7927But why was it?
7927But you have seen the thing?
7927But, Flore,said the poor sheep,"this is the first time I have heard of this wish of yours; how do you know whether I will agree to it or not?"
7927But, cousin,said Pierrette, raising her eyes with angelic sweetness to the cold, sour face of her cousin,"What is a lover?"
7927But, monsieur, do n''t you see the door was locked? 7927 By painting?"
7927Ca n''t I save my money, too?
7927Ca n''t you do without it?
7927Can those who have no teeth crack nuts? 7927 Catacombs?"
7927Certain?
7927Come now, frankly,said the soldier, laughing,"on your honor, what should you say those pictures were worth?
7927Come,he said, with visible warmth,"would n''t it be better than returning to the fields?"
7927Come; are you the same as you were when your uncle brought you here barefooted?
7927Could we beat back with our sabres a crowd of people who are pushed from behind by an angry populace that knows nothing of the forms of justice?
7927Dear me, is there no ante- chamber?
7927Did he seem excited?
7927Did n''t I tell you she put it all on to annoy us?
7927Did you know, monsieur,said Flore to Rouget,"what_ your_ pictures were worth?
7927Did you prick yourself, little girl?
7927Do n''t you feel the sarcasm of that answer?)
7927Do n''t you hear me tell you so?
7927Do n''t you know how to do anything, little girl?
7927Do n''t you see the misery of it?
7927Do n''t you see, my dear friend,said Madame de Listomere,"that the Abbe Troubert wants your apartment?"
7927Do n''t you suppose the old doctor was wicked enough to provide a ruler for his son?
7927Do n''t you think my skin is getting_ tabid_?
7927Do those Parisians fancy we are all idiots,cried one,"and think they have only got to hold their hats and catch legacies?"
7927Do we take off our coats?
7927Do you call those ovolos?
7927Do you know the tenor of it?
7927Do you love any of them?
7927Do you suppose I want to kill them,--poison them? 7927 Do you think I''ve not kept my ears open, and reflected about how we stand?
7927Do you think it is pleasant for people to see such a neck as yours, which is redder and more wrinkled than a turkey''s?
7927Do you think it will deceive old Magus?
7927Do you think, madame,answered Hochon, in a mild voice,"that, at my age, I do n''t know the forms of decent civility?"
7927Do you understand Latin?
7927Do you want something to eat?
7927Do you want to come with me? 7927 Do you wish to be called a coward?
7927Do you wish to send me back?
7927Does Philippe know I am ill?
7927Doing? 7927 Every year?"
7927Find him?
7927Flore,said Jean- Jacques, in a trembling voice,"you feel at home in this house?"
7927For what?
7927Good- evening, my dear; how are you?
7927Gossip, what do you mean?
7927Has anybody thoughtlessly put a cart in his pocket?
7927Has your uncle got permission to hunt crabs?
7927Have I but one son?
7927Have n''t you read your deed?
7927Have you been to see the tower of Issoudun?
7927Have you heard the news?
7927Have you heard what Vinet says? 7927 Have you thought well how you are pledged to be True to your spouse, And love him like yourself?
7927Hein? 7927 Her grandfather and grandmother Lorrain wrote to us-- when was that, my dear?"
7927Here is Monsieur Hochon; how does he seem to you?
7927His portrait as a captain of dragoons on horseback?
7927How about Monsieur Tiphaine?
7927How are you, mademoiselle?
7927How can I earn my living here?
7927How could your brother take up such an incongruous idea? 7927 How did you get proof of such a monstrous thing?"
7927How did you sleep?
7927How do you do, mere Descoings?
7927How is Mariette?
7927How is it that no old country gentleman has married that dear girl, who is cut out for a lady of the manor?
7927How is this?
7927How long have you been standing there?
7927How much do they pay you for that?
7927How much do you earn?
7927How much do you pocket in a year?
7927How much do you really own?
7927How much money must a man have to marry a demoiselle de Grandlieu?
7927How shall I ever get it down?
7927How so?
7927How''s that?
7927How?
7927I am dying,said Pierrette, falling on her knees,"oh, who will save me?"
7927I am her guardian, d''ye see?
7927I kill her?
7927I should like to know how long it would take you to paint my portrait?
7927I took them; is there any objection?
7927I''ll take my oath--"Are you, truly?
7927I''ve stopped the mouths of people who have dared to meddle with you, my dear Francois,he said;"and this is the way you pay your debts?
7927If it were not for you, my handsome Max, what would become of me now?
7927Is it any of our business what takes place among the old man''s heirs?
7927Is it likely I should refuse him?
7927Is it possible?
7927Is it really you, Brigaut?
7927Is n''t she beautiful?
7927Is n''t she old enough to go to school?
7927Is n''t she, Rogron?
7927Is she dumb?
7927Is that all?
7927Is that it?
7927Is that plain enough, uncle?
7927Is that really your advice?
7927Is that remark meant for me, my dear colonel?
7927Is that your paper? 7927 Is there law?
7927Is your wife happy?
7927Joseph is accused--"Of what?
7927Kill Max--?
7927Let my hard- saved money go to a scapegrace like you? 7927 Look here, Philippe, what is the matter?
7927Madame,he replied,"my avocations prevent my going much into society; but for you, what will not a man do?"
7927Mademoiselle,said Mademoiselle Borain,"am I to back- stitch this?"
7927Monsieur Tiphaine? 7927 My good woman,"said the judge to Gritte, when she appeared,"they say you saw Monsieur Joseph Bridau leave the house this morning?"
7927My wife?
7927No? 7927 Not concern him?"
7927Not loved me? 7927 Nothing?"
7927Now do you suppose,said Joseph to his mother,"that my brother is such a fool as to spend his money on Mariette?
7927Oh, here you are,_ peakling_? 7927 Out of my ten sous I have to pay for a lodging--""What''s the matter with the lady you are nursing?"
7927Philippe?
7927Pierrette,she said,"are you ill?"
7927Poor Birotteau?
7927Sha''n''t I warm her bed?
7927Shall we paint the corridor?
7927Shall you pay for the_ misere_?
7927Since yesterday Madame has had the whole house cleaned up, which she left--"Whom do you mean by Madame?
7927So you come from them, do you? 7927 So you think a creature who is depriving you of your property handsome?"
7927So you think that an unmarried woman ought not to marry after forty?
7927So you want to be an artist, at your age?
7927So,resumed Agathe,"you would not be willing to paint his portrait?"
7927Suppose we take advantage of his being here, and have our portraits painted?
7927Taken what?
7927Tell me at once what you want?
7927Tell me, mademoiselle,he said,"is it a fact that my uncle is not free to take a walk with me?"
7927The whole truth about-- my father?
7927Then there is some truth in it?
7927Then why,cried the baroness,"did you not warn us?"
7927Then you do n''t love Pierrette?
7927Then you know nothing about your cousin''s position or means?
7927Then you really love the colonel?
7927They say you estimated them to Monsieur Hochon at one hundred and fifty thousand francs,said Flore;"is that true?"
7927To me?
7927Vedie, what is the matter with Madame this morning?
7927Wages?
7927Was Provins ever a capital?
7927Was he in the Guard?
7927Was it daylight?
7927Was your cart light?
7927Well, Flore,said the heir, taking her hand,"as my father was nothing to you--""What did you suppose he was to me?"
7927Well, Gritte, the fruit?
7927Well, are you not going to say anything? 7927 Well, but--?"
7927Well, have n''t you shaved yet?
7927Well, my good girl,she said, returning to Agathe,"you see they are unanimous; why are you still crying?"
7927Well, my pretty,said the vicar,"are you waiting for your coffee?"
7927Well, so you have n''t got any money?
7927Well, what is it you want to know? 7927 Well, what of that?"
7927Well, yes, what would people say of me?
7927Well,said Madame Hochon to Monsieur Goddet,"how is Monsieur Gilet?"
7927Well,said Max when he was alone with Flore,"is n''t this better than making faces at them?
7927Well; wo n''t you kiss me?
7927Were you up to some mischief last night?
7927What are they complaining of?
7927What are we going to do?
7927What are you about, Flore?
7927What brought you here?
7927What can it matter to him whether Louis the Eighteenth''s bugs or Napoleon''s cuckoos are on the flag, if it is the flag of his country? 7927 What did he leave it for?"
7927What did you do in Brittany?
7927What do you know?
7927What do you mean by that?
7927What do you mean to do?
7927What do you mean?
7927What do you suppose that old gorilla wants at his age with a little girl only fifteen years old?
7927What do you think of all this, Monsieur Hochon?
7927What does he mean?
7927What does it mean?
7927What does that portend?
7927What has she done wrong?
7927What has she done?
7927What have you done?
7927What is a lover, cousin?
7927What is an acre of vineyard worth in your parts?
7927What is it, cousin?
7927What is it, mother?
7927What is it, my little darling?
7927What is it?
7927What is it?
7927What is it?
7927What is that for?
7927What is that?
7927What is the matter with her?
7927What is the matter with you?
7927What is the matter, Madame Bridau?
7927What is the matter, mademoiselle?
7927What is the matter?
7927What is the matter?
7927What is the matter?
7927What is the matter?
7927What is the salon like?
7927What is your name?
7927What may that be?
7927What more?
7927What must we do now?
7927What papers do you take then?
7927What reason is there for such happiness?
7927What the devil do you want me to do there?
7927What will come of all this?
7927What would it cost you to seem to love that poor woman for a few hours?
7927What would people say of me?
7927What you are about, you urchins?
7927What''s all that?
7927What''s that to me?
7927What''s that?
7927What''s that?
7927What''s the matter with you two?
7927What''s the matter with you, Potel?
7927What''s to be done?
7927When did you leave Nantes?
7927When he has spent all the money in my purse, who will give him any?
7927When shall I see you again?
7927Where can I put my things?
7927Where do you belong? 7927 Where do you come from, little girl?
7927Where is Agathe?
7927Where is Flore? 7927 Where is he?"
7927Where is she?
7927Where is the little girl now?
7927Where is the pain, my little friend?
7927Where is your guest?
7927Where shall you go?
7927Where were you going? 7927 Where''s that cursed Parisian?
7927Where''s the bill?
7927Where''s the little one to sleep?
7927Who has dared to destroy that paper?
7927Who is there in Issoudun who had any object in killing Gilet?
7927Who is your mamma?
7927Who knows who may live and who may die?
7927Who would ever have believed that Monsieur Maxence Gilet had inspired so much affection in this town?
7927Who?
7927Who?
7927Whose child is he?
7927Why did n''t he ask me, if he wanted it?
7927Why did you let me ring three times in such weather?
7927Why do the devil to you mention the police to Colonel Bridau?
7927Why do you ask me that?
7927Why do you force him to say what he does not think?
7927Why do you suppose that he will not succeed by honest means?
7927Why does n''t he get some place, or business?
7927Why have you come here from Vatan?
7927Why is her hand bloody?
7927Why is your candle burning at this time of night? 7927 Why need you trouble yourself about those who do n''t know you?"
7927Why not send them to the galleys at once?
7927Why not? 7927 Why?
7927Why?
7927Why?
7927Why?
7927Why?
7927Will he go away now, or will he stay?
7927Will it protect me from a sabre- thrust?
7927Will you accept my carriage?
7927Will you allow me to take them to him?
7927Will you keep a promise made to a dying woman?
7927Will you let me speak to him?
7927With whom?
7927Would n''t you prefer to see him guillotined?
7927Would you like to go to Vatan to- night?
7927Yes, but will you come back?
7927You are a Liberal?
7927You are about twelve years old?
7927You are going?
7927You are not going to dispute it?
7927You are still fond of the Emperor?
7927You do n''t say anything about the Parisians?
7927You do n''t want to go back and live in the fields, do you?
7927You know that to lie is a mortal sin?
7927You know what''s happened?
7927You like your life here?
7927You make fun of it, do you? 7927 You mean Poirel?"
7927You need n''t get angry, Max,said young Goddet;"did n''t we agree to talk freely to each other at Mere Cognette''s?
7927You will be comfortable here, my little girl?
7927You will tell no one, no matter who?
7927You wo n''t tell me?
7927You!--are you going to fight a duel?
7927You? 7927 After such a life as Rouget and Lousteau led from 1770 to 1787, is it likely that either of them would have children at sixty- five years of age? 7927 All these seven years have you not taken care of me and done everything for me? 7927 Am I and my brother the worse for it?
7927And perhaps you did n''t talk to your lover, either?"
7927Are not you big enough to dress your own self?"
7927Are you coming, uncle?"
7927Are you not the gentle and indulgent companion of my miserable life?
7927As for beauty, what is it?
7927As for your will, I''ll tear it in quarters under your nose, and to your very beard-- do you hear?
7927At breakfast Sylvie said to her:--"Was it you, little one, who was trotting over my head by daybreak, and making that racket on the stairs?
7927Besides, if the Bridaus succeed, and Flore has nothing but what she stands in, I should be satisfied; do you understand that?
7927Besides, it may be asked, how could the government send new administrators and able magistrates?
7927Besides, would he be left in peace and comfort even if he did give up his lodging to Troubert?
7927Besides, would n''t they have to marry her?
7927But Philippe?
7927But how should your mother, with her ignorance of the world, her disinterestedness, and her religious ideas, know how to manage such an affair?
7927But you alone can--""What can I do?"
7927But,"he said aloud,"what else can you do with her?
7927By what magic wand had the present transformation taken place?
7927Can I be guilty of wrong when I know not what it is?
7927Can that be the abyss of which mythology warns us under the fable of the Danaides and their cask?
7927Can there be anything more dreadful than the matutinal apparition of an ugly old maid at her window?
7927Could they send the girl away if they did not like her?
7927Did n''t Hugo say:''She loved a ball, and died of it''?
7927Did n''t she take twenty thousand francs from you?
7927Did n''t you, little one?"
7927Do I not see you every day,--hear your voice?
7927Do n''t be a fool; how can you and I afford to quarrel?
7927Do n''t you know that your worthy leader killed a poor young woman, in 1806?
7927Do n''t you remember Max''s treachery to the poor lad?"
7927Do n''t you understand?"
7927Do you call that a crime?
7927Do you know what you ought to say?
7927Do you know, my dear boy, you make me play a pretty shabby part in that picture of yours?"
7927Do you mean to come to a bad end?"
7927Do you suppose I am going to drink coffee with ashes in it?
7927Do you want to know what you are?
7927Do you, monsieur?"
7927For seven years have we not lived alone together?
7927Glory for an artist precedes fortune; is not that to say that Joseph, though he may bring honor to the family, will still be poor?
7927Gold chains here, and watches there,--what do n''t they offer me?
7927Has my nephew, Etienne, who writes in the newspapers and is intimate, they tell me, with your son Philippe, been to pay his respects to you?
7927Have I not loved Him with all my soul?
7927Have I the time to repair it?"
7927Have I wandered from the path of grace?
7927Have you ceased to love your son?"
7927Have you forgotten what you did yesterday?
7927Have you no other?"
7927Have you pleased some of the men who visit here?"
7927He was quite happy if some shopkeeper standing on the threshold of his door would stop him and say,"Well, pere Rogron, how goes it with_ you_?"
7927He''s forced to sit on a stool all day in the mayor''s office to earn-- what?
7927His uncle came out before the Chamber rose, and said to him at once as they drove away:"Why the devil have you meddled in a priest''s quarrel?
7927How is this sensitiveness stupidly spent on nothings to be accounted for?
7927How much did you say, Monsieur Joseph?"
7927How will you decide?"
7927I always answer,''a poor innocent like that?
7927I came near being stoned--""Do you wish your friend''s house to be taken by assault and pillaged?"
7927I''ve fed them, and I do n''t ask anything from them,--I call that quits, hey, neighbor?
7927If I can not pay my rent to- morrow I shall be put out-- and then, where can I go?
7927If he were to part from Flore( the mere thought confused him) where could he find another woman?
7927If you like a game of cards in the evening, why do n''t you have it at home; why not play your boston here, in your own house?
7927If, to get rid of these Parisians I need the help of the Order, will you lend me a hand?
7927In the delirium which preceded death, the words,"Whom does Philippe take after?"
7927Is it impossible to fill the places of those idiots, the Julliards and all the rest of them?
7927Is it that sort of sister who can take my place?
7927Is n''t that true?"
7927Is n''t there but one disease in life?"
7927Is there no one to marry but that old Sylvie?
7927Is your mother pretty?
7927It would take my whole year''s pension to pay for the clothes; besides I have mortgaged it for three years--""What for?"
7927Jacques, is that so?
7927Joseph looked at the two young men as much as to say:"Is it to such high living as this that you owe your healthy faces?"
7927Julliard raised his eyes to the ceiling, as if to say,"Good heavens?
7927My Pierrette, what has become of her?
7927My furniture is rubbed and kept so bright that I do n''t know when I have seen any dust--did you ever see a speck of it in my rooms?
7927My poor Jacques, what do you suppose I could do with your money?
7927No one had risen to inquire what they meant, but every one said the next day,"Did you hear those screams about one in the morning?"
7927Once there, how should you like it if your grandmother Descoings were to turn up?
7927Pere Lousteau loved Madame Rouget; is n''t it better to love a housekeeper who is not yoked?"
7927Perhaps you have seen some one again?"
7927Persecution had taught Pierrette the wariness of slaves; so she answered bravely:--"I do n''t know what you mean,--""Who means?--your dog?"
7927Philippe, her favorite child, was he not the great man of the family at last?
7927Pierrette was ill; she was not happy; she pined for Brittany-- what was the matter with her?
7927Pray why should we put on our best velvet gowns to please you?"
7927Rogron, who did not understand his sister''s anger, said to Pierrette:"What is all this about?
7927Scores of times in his walks he would stop and say,--often to the same person on the same day,--"Well, what''s the news?"
7927Shall we paint the corridor?"
7927She is perversity itself,--perversity, I say; and you need n''t expect any good of her; do you hear me, Jerome?"
7927She let Pierrette go, saying to the company:"What do you think now of her illness?
7927Should he marry?
7927Should n''t we all be mortal enemies if we remembered outside what is said, or thought, or done here?
7927Surely these things belonged to Birotteau?
7927Sylvie avoided answering, and said:--"Do you dare to tell me, mademoiselle, that a man did not come under your window and talk to you of marriage?"
7927The Girondist minister, who was then contending against Robespierre, said to his secretary,"Why do you meddle in the matter?"
7927The few words uttered by Max had roused the suspicions of Monsieur Goddet, and he called to the woman,--"Gritte, is Monsieur Joseph Bridau in bed?"
7927The next day, more than one inhabitant must have said to his neighbor:"Did you hear those frightful cries last night, about one o''clock?
7927The upshot of the conversations was the same on all sides,--"What will happen at the banquet between Max and Colonel Bridau?"
7927Those two want to strip him of his fortune and leave him in the lurch-- you know to whom I refer?
7927Was it not practically giving the whole management of the property into the hands of a stranger, some unknown girl?
7927We have just been told of a little treasure at Bourges,--what did they call it?
7927Well, what''s the matter?
7927Were n''t you clean in Brittany?
7927What country do you come from?"
7927What did you do to grandpa Rouget, to your father, that he should drive you away and disinherit you?
7927What did you do to your father,--you who are a good woman?
7927What do these Listomeres expect to get by crouching in this way?")
7927What do you mean by everywhere?
7927What do you suppose an old soldier of the Empire like me does with himself?
7927What does it all mean?"
7927What for?"
7927What harm have I done?
7927What have you done with your wife?"
7927What is my sin?
7927What is she after?"
7927What should she do?
7927What social power can to- day, for the sum of five sous, give us five days''happiness and launch us ideally into all the joys of civilization?
7927What the devil is the good of money kept in wool?
7927What would become of them?
7927What would people say in Issoudun?
7927What''s that got to do with it?
7927When Fanchette asked Flore, after the funeral,"Well, what is to become of you, now that monsieur is dead?"
7927When her cousin asked,"Where?"
7927Where are they?
7927Where does one find such luck?"
7927Where was he?
7927Who was the chief authority in the party?
7927Who was to be deputy?
7927Who, of such men, is willing to bury himself in the arrondissements, where the good to be done is without glory?
7927Whom did the liberals all consult?
7927Why do n''t you both marry?"
7927Why do you squabble so?
7927Why do you stay with them?
7927Why is she angry with me?
7927Why is your hand like this?
7927Why should n''t Pierrette take care of the house and cook?
7927Why should she worry?"
7927Will this moral cosmopolitanism, the hope of Christian Rome, prove to be only a sublime error?
7927Would n''t it be far better for her to be Madame Rouget than the servant- mistress of an old bachelor?
7927Would n''t it commit them to some obligations towards her?
7927Would you ever have believed that a boy with such heavenly blue eyes and the look of Bayard could turn out such a scoundrel?"
7927Would you give her an arm in the Tuileries, and present her to the noble family you were trying to enter?
7927Would you want that worthy woman, who looked like a Madame Saint- Leon, to be hanging on to you?
7927You are mistaken; he kept carnival in New York just as he does here--""But if he is suffering at this moment, near to us, would it not be horrible?"
7927You do love him, then, poor persecuted fellow?
7927You have heard of Mademoiselle Ganivet?
7927You have some reason--""Yes, I want to know--""What?"
7927You know our old friend Lousteau?
7927You never got a farthing of the national subscription, did you?
7927You will love me always, wo n''t you?
7927and all others to whom the worthy Bridau appealed made the same atrocious reply:"Why do you meddle?"
7927and have it said you are running away from Bridau?
7927and what do they stipulate?"
7927are not we all under a Republic that is one and indivisible?"
7927are you going away again?"
7927are you going to play the melodrama of''The Banished Son''?
7927are you here, Godeschal?"
7927are you mad, Joseph?"
7927are you out of your mind, my dear Sylvie?"
7927can that be a man only fifty- seven years old?"
7927can you pardon me, my child?"
7927cried Birotteau;"my books, my beautiful book- shelves, and pictures, my red furniture, and all my treasures?"
7927cried Madame de Listomere, turning to Birotteau,"which do you prefer, to be made a canon, or continue to live with Mademoiselle Gamard?"
7927cried Max softly, now appearing on the scene,"why are you star- gazing?
7927cried the baron;"is n''t he enjoying the use of the Abbe Birotteau''s household property?
7927did he say that of me?"
7927did he tell you that nonsense?"
7927did n''t we see them, in 1830, dusting the jackets of the tax- gatherers?
7927do n''t you know why?"
7927do you believe that?
7927do you mean that you wo n''t be there the day after to- morrow?"
7927does he love Bathilde?"
7927had the walls settled, the panels cracked?
7927had they really a plan?"
7927how can we find out where she is?"
7927how is she, the poor, dear woman?"
7927if I leave her my fortune--eh, colonel?"
7927is it his fault?
7927is it possible?"
7927is that how you take things?
7927is there justice?"
7927is this my son?"
7927it was you who ruined Fario, was it?
7927my dear friends, do you want to know what vice is?
7927neighbor; what wo n''t they say at Issoudun?"
7927said Joseph, out of patience;"do you want me to tell you in artist language what I think of your visit?
7927said the old man,"what has he to do with the poor child?
7927she said, interrupting him,"is it possible that your things have not been left at Madame de Listomere''s?"
7927that''s how it is, is it?"
7927then it is I who tell lies, is it?"
7927well?"
7927what are you doing here, you who charged with poor Colonel Chabert at Eylau?
7927what are you thinking about?
7927what do I care for Philippe?"
7927what fever?
7927what have I done to displease her?"
7927what is he doing?"
7927what is the object of it?
7927what of that?"
7927what would become of him?
7927what would he do if reduced to live on the five hundred francs of an officer of the Legion of honor?
7927whence have they come?
7927where are you going without any money?"
7927where do they go?"
7927where do you come from?"
7927where do you come from?"
7927where does she keep her money?
7927where is Max?"
7927where is she?
7927who ever heard of any one suffering everywhere?"
7927who?"
7927why do they keep you?
7927you understand?"
7927you want to be an artist?"
7927you were taken in by that affair of the Champ d''Asile, were you?
7927you will not?"
16206''Are you not fit for society?'' 16206 ''Are you quite sure of that?''
16206Adolphe,she says,"do you want to do me a favor?"
16206Ah, it''s your husband?
16206Ah, sir, you take an interest in me, do you not?
16206Ah, so you are working those slippers for your dear Adolphe?
16206Alas, what can I do?
16206Am I then so very wrong, Adolphe, to have sought to spare you numerous cares?
16206And Madame de T-----?
16206And did the viscountess perceive your distress during these three days? 16206 And is he keeping you waiting?"
16206And so you are going to be married?
16206And why should n''t he be hungry? 16206 Annoys me?
16206Are you not going on Thursday to a ball of Madame de B-----?
16206Are you sick?
16206But does it not require courage to appear to be what one really is?
16206But must this bank be always ominous? 16206 But should we not out of decency begin with the husband?"
16206But what policy is it that demands this course of action? 16206 But why do you so rarely visit Madame de V-----?
16206But why have you come back?
16206But why should you have come so soon?
16206But, my dear child, what does this trifling inconvenience amount to, if your husband is kind and possesses a good disposition?
16206Can not I reproach you with the same thing?
16206Can you ask, ungrateful man?
16206Can you show me five men in any nation who have sacrificed anything for a woman? 16206 Can you tell me her name or point her out to me?"
16206Caroline, did n''t you give the necessary orders?
16206Caroline?
16206Charles? 16206 Come, Adolphe, what have I done?"
16206Come, Caroline, my own Carola, what do you mean to do?
16206Come, go on, what is it?
16206Did I speak?
16206Did I tell you that I have a vertigo?
16206Did you find everybody in?
16206Did you know that I was here?
16206Did you take many cabs?
16206Do n''t you feel a heat there, a slight perspiration?
16206Do n''t you find your night- cap moist on your forehead, when you wake up?
16206Do n''t you recognize them?
16206Do n''t you think she speaks to you rather impertinently?
16206Do you feel a sensation of heaviness in your knees?
16206Do you feel sick?
16206Do you happen,he said in a low voice,"to have a thousand crowns to lend me?
16206Do you know her upholsterer?
16206Do you suppose I would notice a maid? 16206 Do you take me for a child?"
16206Do you think so? 16206 Do you think so?
16206Do you think so? 16206 Do you think that I would allow madame to go anywhere on foot unaccompanied by a lackey in livery?
16206Does he really want to please his little girly?
16206Even a kiss?
16206Frederick the Great? 16206 Has everything been very pleasant?
16206Has the devil again turned up in a mob cap?
16206Have n''t you been to Madame de Fischtaminel''s?
16206Have you any plans for this evening?
16206Have you concluded anything?
16206Have you done, dear?
16206Have you ever heard him?
16206Have you forgotten our agreement?
16206Have you noticed, dear, that women in general bestow their love only upon a fool?
16206Have you patients there?
16206He allowed himself to be easily convinced?
16206How can I remember while admiring your Raphaelistic head?
16206How can I, when I''m asleep?
16206How can you thus run the risk of causing the death of two worthy people? 16206 How could he, who is certainly a man of sense, choose--?"
16206How did you manage it? 16206 How do you like it?"
16206How has it all gone off?
16206How is it with you, my dear madame?
16206How is this, monsieur?
16206I fear it has left a little cloud on your mind?
16206I have come to the philosophic situation, which you appear to have reached, but I confess that I--"You are searching for ideas?
16206I would never have believed that my uncle was such a dashing blade?
16206I, sir? 16206 I, thank heaven, have passed the period; and you?"
16206I? 16206 I?"
16206If I have not visited Madame de V-----, whose fault is it?
16206If her husband does n''t come,said Justine to the cook,"what will become of us?
16206If your request is reasonable, I am willing--"Ah, already-- that''s a true husband''s word-- if--"Come, what is it?
16206In the evening?
16206In the pleasantest place in the world, but ca n''t you guess? 16206 In what sense did you understand the word, my dear?"
16206Is he there?
16206Is it for what I said about your stomach, your shape and your digestion? 16206 Is it very dangerous?"
16206Is n''t this fine?
16206Is not woman endowed with a soul? 16206 Is our work completed?"
16206Is that a reason? 16206 Is there a feuilleton this morning?"
16206Is this resignation or infatuation?
16206It certainly is, but what am I going to do there? 16206 It is probable that I wrote them at Paris--""What business was it, Adolphe?"
16206Jealous of whom? 16206 My dear Caroline,"says Adolphe one day to his wife,"are you satisfied with Justine?"
16206No, nothing,"How many persons have you seen?
16206Now do you see the depth of the fold which I mentioned? 16206 Now, is it a possible thing, Caroline?"
16206Oh, sir, only be a man--"Are you aware of the full bearing of that request, fair creature?
16206Ought we not to feel more interest in the improvement of the human race than in that of horses? 16206 Recognize what?"
16206She got into debt, I suppose?
16206She is faithful?
16206She must be endowed with very rare qualities, I suppose? 16206 She sews well?"
16206So a country house would please you very much, would it, darling?
16206So after all, madame, you have your cross?
16206So the nose is an organ, is it?
16206So you are really in love with Madame de Fischtaminel?
16206So you met the upholsterer?
16206So, your Adolphe is jealous?
16206Suppose you take the management of the house back again?
16206Take the key of the money- box back,--but do you know what will happen? 16206 Tell me,"asked the author,"is the disaster which threatens the husband in France quite inevitable?"
16206Then you confess that a boy ca n''t be sent to school before he is seven years old?
16206Then you know--?
16206There now, tell me, what will you do?
16206Very good,she says,"did he explain to you how to cook them?"
16206Very well, my lord; but would you have the goodness to throw over my horse also?
16206Well, Adolphe?
16206Well, Caroline?
16206Well, Stephanie?
16206Well, and have not you in your life caused the unhappiness of more than one person?
16206Well, dear, how is it with you?
16206Well, is your work finished?
16206Well, madame,says the great physician,"how happens it that so pretty a woman allows herself to be sick?"
16206Well, what does that prove? 16206 Well, what will you do?"
16206Well,said I to the notary''s clerk,"do you know what was the nature of this letter to the late Bourgarel?"
16206Well?
16206Well?
16206Well?
16206Well?
16206What are you going to do?
16206What are you thinking of, Justine? 16206 What attentions?"
16206What came of it?
16206What could I have done? 16206 What do you do with it?"
16206What do you feel?
16206What do you mean by that, duchess? 16206 What do you mean, sir?"
16206What do you mean? 16206 What do you mean?"
16206What do you need?
16206What do you say?
16206What do you think of me, sir?
16206What does it mean?
16206What for, pray?
16206What for?
16206What has the stomach got to do with the nose?
16206What is Benoit''s opinion?
16206What is it, now?
16206What is the matter, my darling?
16206What is the matter?
16206What is the spring bed stuffed with?
16206What is there so seductive in the mind or the manners of the spider?
16206What is this venture, madame?
16206What kind is it you like, then?
16206What must I do then to convince you of my love?
16206What must I do to reassure you?
16206What of the mother?
16206What trouble is this?
16206What''s the matter? 16206 What''s the matter?"
16206What''s the matter?
16206What''s the use of replying with reasons that have n''t got an ounce of common- sense?
16206What, a duel?
16206What, are you pouting?
16206What, in that dress?
16206What, is this you?
16206What, not dressed yet, Caroline?
16206What, will you be such a love as to buy me one? 16206 What,"she said,"already here?
16206When did you make appointments with them? 16206 Where did you get that idea, my sweet?
16206Where do you feel bad?
16206Where do you put it?
16206Where is my husband going? 16206 Where were we, sir?"
16206Where?
16206Where?
16206Who could it be, except Ferdinand?
16206Who do you mean?
16206Who is it?
16206Who knows?
16206Whom are you expecting?
16206Whom do you mean?
16206Why are you come so early?
16206Why did you not tell me?
16206Why do n''t they get married?
16206Why do you ask, my little man?
16206Why do you leave us?
16206Why give me pain?
16206Why have n''t you been to see me, then?
16206Why pout? 16206 Why should I have been there?"
16206Why should hacks be interdicted?
16206Why should we change the subject of debate? 16206 Why, is this out of consideration for me?
16206Why, this affair--"Chaumontel''s affair?
16206Why, what''s the matter, children?
16206Will you have a glass of sugar and water?
16206With too much vermilion?
16206Wo n''t you refuse?
16206Would n''t it be better,it said,"to let things be as they are?
16206Would you like to be my widow?
16206Would you rather ruin the horse?
16206Yes, dear boy; it looks like me, does n''t it?
16206You astonish me, my dear; she is then your foster- sister?
16206You did not expect to see me so early, did you?
16206You do it by opposing her?
16206You find it so?
16206You have counted, then, upon that chance, it seems to me?
16206You have succeeded--?
16206You want me to amuse you by telling you about business?
16206Your mushrooms_ a l''Italienne_?
16206''Does n''t he know you?''
16206''How is it that the servants have not warmed our beds?''
16206''Madame de----- told me that one evening at a ball you had been found nearly fainting in her card- room?''
16206''So you are reconciled, you and Madame de Lustrac,''some one said to him in the lobby of the Emperor''s theatre,''you have pardoned her, have you?
16206''Was my appearance to your taste this evening?''
16206( as he goes to bed)--What do you think, my darling?
16206( sitting next to Husband B, speaking at the same time)--What is that you are saying, my friend?
16206( smiling)--Don''t they overwhelm you all the time with their superiority?
16206( vivaciously)--But why should you go alone?
16206( with vivacity)--Who told you so?
16206A child belonging to the genus Terrible, exclaims in the presence of everybody:"Mamma, would you let Justine hit me?"
16206Absolutely all?"
16206Adolphe often hears Caroline say to Madame Deschars:"How do you manage?"
16206Adolphe reddens; he ca n''t very well beat his wife, and Madame de Fischtaminel looks at him as much as to say,"What does this mean?"
16206Adolphe, very much alarmed, says to himself:"The doctor''s right, she may get to be morbidly exacting, and then what will become of me?
16206After a year of absolute monarchy, Caroline says very mildly one morning:"How much have you spent this year, dear?"
16206After all, what is the question before us?
16206Ah, dear me, why did I get married?
16206Am I as pretty as she?"
16206And a good many of them say to themselves, as did Caroline,"How will he manage?"
16206And can the danger be avoided?"
16206And does he not know all the comings and goings of these Parisian gondolas?
16206And finally, have you influence, powerful friends, an important post?
16206And how can you make your remark fit in with the fact that they have an aversion for their husbands?"
16206And how many brokers whose real capital does not amount to more than a thousand, two thousand, four thousand, five thousand francs?
16206And is it not, after all the sweetest sacrifice that a loving heart can make, that love should so accommodate itself as to adjust the inequality?
16206And is it really over?
16206And now what do you think about that?
16206And really what do you want with an axiom in the present matter?
16206And really, does not desire constitute of itself a sort of intuitive possession?
16206And since the words of Napoleon served to start this book, why should it not end as it began?
16206And who is deceived on this point?
16206And whose will be the victory when each of you is caught in a similar snare?
16206And, moreover, is it necessary for a girl to be any the less under the watchful eye of her mother, because she is mistress of her own actions?
16206Anything new?
16206Are n''t you ashamed of yourself for not adoring a little wife who is so interesting?
16206Are they not all blooming creatures, fascinating the world by their beauty, their youth, their life and their love?
16206Are they not the supreme flower of the country?
16206Are they too indulgent?
16206Are things so bad?
16206Are we not two companions united in making the same journey?
16206Are women then really slaves?
16206Are you in earnest, Adolphe?"
16206Are you in good health?
16206Are you not a king surrounded by flatterers?
16206Are you not next to nothing here in your chimney- corner?
16206Are you then astonished at the famous verse of Boileau?
16206Are you very happy with my friend?
16206At Ecouen she was always reading--""And you, what used you to do?"
16206At last he musters all his courage and utters a protest against her pretended malady, in the bold phrase:"And have you really a headache?"
16206At what age, in what day, does this terrible revolution occur?
16206At what number shall we reckon those of the governmental leeches, who are merely quill- drivers with a salary of six hundred francs a year?
16206But M. Villeplaine has answered for you with his life, and his eminence the Cardinal de----- of whom he is the--""M. de Villeplaine?"
16206But do you see in this a fresh idea?
16206But has not Madame de T----- taken you into her secret?
16206But how can I resist the downy creases of my bed?
16206But how could I pick one with her?
16206But how shall we treat those compensations which are most pleasing to husbands?
16206But in good faith, would the emancipation of girls set free such a host of dangers?
16206But in what mood should you enter?
16206But in what point and in what manner does this fatal war break out?
16206But no, idiot, stupid and indifferent that you are, you ask her,"What is the matter?"
16206But of what use were ancient principles of military art in presence of the impetuous genius of Napoleon?
16206But really, is she not charming?"
16206But tell me, did he really take you for her lover?"
16206But to what conclusion does our calculation lead us?
16206But we are answerable for our children, are we not?
16206But what father of good sense would wish his son to be married at twenty years of age?
16206But when?
16206But where do you find such love genuine and constant?
16206But why should it not have been a philosopher who dreaded the disenchantment which a woman would experience at the sight of a man asleep?
16206But with regard to money, what interest can you expect your wife to take in a machine in which she is looked upon as a mere bookkeeper?
16206But would you learn the truth?
16206But yet, is this true happiness?"
16206But, my dear victim of the Minotaur, is not happiness the object which all societies should set before them?
16206By what reasonings has man arrived at that point in which he brought in vogue a practice so fatal to happiness, to health, even to_ amour- propre_?
16206Ca n''t I go with Madame de Fischtaminel?
16206Ca n''t you imagine those three relations seated in silence through that winter midnight beside her bed?
16206Can I control my anger at the thought that Adolphe is dining in the city without me?
16206Can a man always desire his wife?
16206Can a man ever learn woman and know how to decipher this wondrous strain of music, by remaining through life like a seminarian in his cell?
16206Can any one imagine three human beings as astonished as we were to find ourselves gathered together?
16206Can it be possible that lovers have never sung thy praises, personified thee, or raised thee to the skies?
16206Can it be said that during the journey the one must never hold out his hand to the other to raise up a comrade or to prevent a comrade''s fall?
16206Can it possibly be right to confine women?
16206Can not I have another wife?
16206Can not these men, the religious women will always ask, abide in continence like the priests?
16206Can there be another woman like her?
16206Can you forget that a suit for infidelity could never be won by a husband excepting through this conjugal noise?
16206Can you guess who it was?
16206Can you keep your eye on every opening in the fence of the park?
16206Caroline has often said to you,"Adolphe, what is the matter?
16206Could she have broken with him?
16206Did not the husband think your visit ridiculous?
16206Did you do your business in a hack?"
16206Do I ever tell you that you are growing fat, that you are getting the color of a stone- cutter, and that I prefer thin and pale men?"
16206Do men submit to it from a want of energy?
16206Do n''t you know that the noise of which you complain seems more terrible to the wife uncertain of her crime, than the trumpet of the Last Judgment?
16206Do n''t you remember how tiresome she was when she visited the Deschars?
16206Do n''t you remember that the happier was to write first and to console her who remained in the country?
16206Do n''t you see that I was only paying you back for your vermilion?
16206Do they sin on the score of bad principles?
16206Do we ever know what electric current precipitates the avalanche or decides a revolution?
16206Do we feel more pleasure in kissing the glove of a grisette than in draining the five minutes of pleasure which all women offer to us?
16206Do you know him?"
16206Do you know, my dear, that you are right in what you say?
16206Do you like that better than being adored?
16206Do you love her because she is intellectual?
16206Do you not hear within you a voice which cries,"And what if she is actually suffering?"
16206Do you reveal new principles?
16206Do you suppose it''s money that I want?
16206Do you suppose that this opinion that husbands have of their wives, the parts they give them, is not a singular vexation for us?
16206Do you think so?
16206Do you understand?
16206Do you want any proof of this?
16206Do you?
16206Does a husband, irritated beyond all measure, at last express his wishes to them?
16206Does he love me still?
16206Does it lie in the beauty of the beloved?
16206Does n''t he, Ferdinand?
16206Does she eat?
16206Does the government intend to institute a professional chair of love, just as it has instituted a chair of law?"
16206FIRST EPOCH.--Is it possible that I shall ever have white hair?
16206Fire?"
16206For in order to be happy, is it not necessary to control the impetuous desires of your senses?
16206For instance--"The author( may we say the ingenious author?)
16206For what do women read?
16206For what do you think we are stipulating?
16206For what remains to him of his wife?
16206For you have lost the thread of the discourse, and you fidget nervously with your feet, thinking to yourself,"What is she telling her about me?"
16206Fruit?
16206Gallows birds are ye all-- now in the devil''s name will you not begone?
16206Had she taken me to be his successor, or only to punish him?
16206Has anything been discovered?"
16206Has she not feelings as we have?
16206Has she the needs of other species?
16206Have I a family who will some day give me shelter?"
16206Have all marriages their honeymoon?
16206Have n''t I though?"
16206Have they pronounced without appeal that it is as impossible to write a book on marriage as to make new again a broken pot?
16206Have we lost all sense of the eloquence of fact?
16206Have we not proved that moral nature, like physical nature, has its laws?
16206Have you a scent- bottle with you?
16206Have you any children?
16206Have you been in the house a good deal lately?"
16206Have you no scheme which can preserve marriage from the miseries of excessive cold and excessive heat?
16206Have you played your part well?
16206Have you put yourself in her place?
16206He could not restrain a laugh and said:"Wo n''t my wife be astonished at the Last Judgment?"
16206Her imagination was aroused; it was no longer taken up with her lover; had she not better, first of all, probe her husband''s secret?
16206Here, I see, you stop me to ask,"How are we to find the longitude in this sea?
16206Here, you talk for ten minutes without interruption, and you close with an appealing"Well?"
16206How are we to explain this magic spell which rules all the affairs of life?
16206How can it last long between two beings who are united for their whole life, unless they know each other perfectly?
16206How can it set, when once it has risen?
16206How can the honeymoon rise upon two beings who can not possibly love each other?
16206How comes it that I think of nothing but death?
16206How could I regain my apartment, not knowing where it was?
16206How could he resist doing so?
16206How could the consistency, which was wanting in a political system, be expected in the general manners of the nation?
16206How do you lie at night?"
16206How does she ever open it?
16206How is it possible to get at the truth when each of you conceals it under the same lie, each setting the same trap for the other?
16206How many mattresses are there on your bed?"
16206How many merchants who have nothing but a fictitious capital shall we admit?
16206How much?
16206How shall we give a name to this miracle, perhaps the only one wrought upon a patient during his absence?
16206Hypocrite, do you want to make me believe that you have forgotten your son so soon, M''lle Suzanne Beauminet''s son?"
16206I asked her:"Where have you been, Jeanne?"
16206I fear the contrary--""Why, madame, should everything that the public amuses itself by saying claim our belief?"
16206I got everything ready last night; now you must, my dear; do you want to miss him?
16206I replied,"what object can I have with regard to you?
16206I should be delighted to learn how she manages to make her husband love her so much: have they been married long?"
16206I wo n''t see her again, her style of conduct exposes your reputation--""What can people say-- what have they said?"
16206If I had not dined yesterday with the veritable-- I should take you--""By the way, has he been good?"
16206If he sees me with a book, he comes and says a dozen times an hour--''Nina, dear, have n''t you finished yet?''
16206If love is extinguished between a married couple, can not friendship and confidence still survive?
16206If there are yellow rays of light, why should there not be whole days of this extremely matrimonial color?
16206If these two children were always faithfully produced, what would become of nations?
16206If your wife is a woman of profound dissimulation, the question is, what signs will indicate to her the motives of your long mystification?
16206If, on passing your wife, an admirer were gently to press her, accidentally or purposely, would you have the slightest desire to discover his motives?
16206In a quarter of an hour, the main question is blocked by a side discussion on this point:"Has Charles had chilblains or not?"
16206In a rage then?
16206In any case artists speak of things about which every one is enthusiastic, for who is there who does not believe in good taste?
16206In our case--wouldn''t you like to have the same chance, my respected friend?"
16206In reply to the sacramental words pronounced by the officer of the customs,"Have you anything to declare?"
16206In short, how can the most bold of the distinguished women who are the subject of this work show herself under these circumstances in public?
16206In what would you say the pleasure of love consists?
16206Is it a disease?
16206Is it a petty or a profound trouble?
16206Is it advantageous for a man not to know what will please his wife after their marriage?
16206Is it anything but a social chimera, as Diderot supposed, reminding us that this sentiment always gives way before sickness and before misery?
16206Is it anything in a woman but well understood coquetry?
16206Is it default of memory?
16206Is it for me-- for me only--?"
16206Is it for the purpose of insinuating the imbecility of slumber that the Romans decorated the heads of their beds with the head of an ass?
16206Is it not certain that cooling applications, douches, baths, etc., produce great changes in more or less acute affections of the brain?
16206Is it not enough to make the bravest tremble?
16206Is it not then time to display that intellectual power with which we armed you in our Meditation entitled_ Of the Custom House_?
16206Is it not this axiom that makes these wretched kings give themselves so much trouble about their people?
16206Is it not this fact which makes a treasure out of a letter where one gives one''s self over to one''s thoughts?
16206Is it not to fasten it up in a pretty cage, from which it can not get out without permission?
16206Is it possible my wife is in love with Dr. M-----?
16206Is it proper for a young woman to be left alone, so?
16206Is it right to be heir of the man who we slay?"
16206Is it still for your sake, or only for herself, or is it for somebody else?
16206Is it the conversation of a shop- girl which makes you expect boundless delights?
16206Is it the governments or the governed?
16206Is n''t he, Ferdinand?
16206Is not a snare set in everything which surrounds you on the outside and influences you within?
16206Is not that the best style?
16206Is not the danger of these precocious unions apparent at all?
16206Is not the king of Rome the son of the Emperor?
16206Is not the world, moreover, full of young women who drag along pale and weak, sickly and suffering?
16206Is not their home flanked on either side by other houses?
16206Is not this a question of marito- national importance?
16206Is not this the comedy of comedies?
16206Is not your object to prove that marriage unites for life two beings who do not know each other?
16206Is she any better because she has never had any voice in the secret councils of grown- up girls?
16206Is society afraid to probe its wound or has it recognized the fact that evil is irremediable and things must be allowed to run their course?
16206Is there a man in the world who knows how he appears to others, and what he does when he is asleep?
16206Is there a regret?
16206Is there a spring bed?"
16206Is there any comparison between the danger of giving liberty to girls and that of allowing it to wives?
16206Is there not here a much wider question than that of mere cabinet- making to decide?
16206Is there such a policy?"
16206Is there--?"
16206Is this a sentiment which is easy for me to repress?
16206Is this all?"
16206Is this fidelity or merely a want of something to do?
16206Is this the vision offered by some gastronomic mirage?
16206Is this what you want?
16206Is your son more forward than theirs?
16206Lover or husband, have you smiled, or have you trembled at this evil?
16206M. de Boufflers was asked what he would do if on returning after a long absence he found his wife with child?
16206Madame Deschars is too prudish, Madame Foullepointe too absolute in her household, and she knows it; indeed, what does n''t she know?
16206Made a little counterfeit money, run into debt, or embroidered a sampler?"
16206Make me suffer again, will you?"
16206May not all intrigues in love be confined in these words--entering and leaving?
16206Might it not be the sanctuary of love?
16206Must I prepare for death?"
16206Must not the policy of husbands be very nearly the same as the policy of kings?
16206My reflections?
16206Nor is this all; if your mother- in- law sent her daughter to a boarding school, do you believe that this was out of solicitude for her daughter?
16206Now everybody has rich relations of whom they say''Will he leave anything like it?''
16206Now have you ever considered the results which follow these poetical readings?
16206Now how many answers have not the sauntering artists heard to the categorical question which is always with us?
16206Now what can we add that would not be a tedious paraphrase of the lessons suggested by this conversation?
16206Now what man is there so inconsiderate as to dare to speak to a suffering woman about desires which, in him, prove the most perfect health?
16206Now what mother of a family is there who would expose her daughter to the risk of this fermentation when it has not yet taken place?
16206Now what the deuce would you expect a woman to answer?
16206Now, can I keep from thinking this way?
16206Now?
16206On the other hand, what need is there to justify a fact under whose domination all societies exist?
16206On which side?"
16206One day she says to you,"Is there really an affair?"
16206Or this:"Yesterday, love, you made me wait for you: what will it be to- morrow?"
16206Or this:"You traitorous Chodoreille, what were you doing yesterday on the boulevard with a woman hanging on your arm?
16206Or, is it based on the lost tradition of a former life?
16206Perhaps you hope to find no difficulty in preventing your wife from seeing her school friends?
16206Perhaps you would like a drop of brandy in your sugar and water?
16206Physiology, for the third and last time I ask you-- What is your meaning?
16206Physiology, what must I consider your meaning?
16206Physiology, what must I consider your meaning?
16206Physiology, what must I take you to mean?
16206Shall I ever come to that?
16206Shall I run over the list?
16206Shall we not find these tender tints in the gloomy pictures of loves which violate the marriage law?
16206She does not know what a Jesuit is: what is a Jesuit?
16206She perhaps dresses you well?"
16206She says,"What is the matter?"
16206Should there be a little Hagar in each marriage establishment?
16206Should we make the conjecture that certain honest women act in dividing up the celibates, as the lion in the fable did?
16206Should wise husbands adopt these beds on castors?
16206Should your wife take a hack, what have you to fear?
16206Suppose I were to go to- morrow to see Madame de Fischtaminel, do you know what she would say?"
16206THE WIFE.--What is it all about, Adolph?
16206THIRD EPOCH.--Why not wear a well- made wig which people would not notice?
16206That adultery does more harm than marriage does good?
16206That an investigation if it could be undertaken would prove that in the transmission of patrimonial property there was more risk than security?
16206That divorce, this admirable release from the misfortunes of marriage, should with one voice be reinstated?
16206That fidelity is impossible, at least to the man?
16206That infidelity in a woman may be traced back to the earliest ages of society, and that marriage still survives this perpetuation of treachery?
16206That it furnishes invaluable pledges for the security of government?
16206That life consists in passion, and that no passion survives marriage?
16206That marriage is an institution necessary for the preservation of society, but that it is contrary to the laws of nature?
16206That marriage is filled with crimes and that the known murders are not the worst?
16206That the laws of love so strongly link together two human beings that no human law can put them asunder?
16206That the wife is treated as a slave?
16206That there has never been a marriage entirely happy?
16206That there is something ridiculous in the wish that one and the same thoughts should control two wills?
16206That there is something touching in the association of two human beings for the purpose of supporting the pains of life?
16206That, in spite of all its inconveniences, marriage is the foundation on which property is based?
16206The King of Prussia?"
16206The first word of the husband, who spoke without thinking, and for the sake of talking, was the question:"Has any one been here to- day?"
16206The flame is brilliant and quickly vanishes, but is not the imagination at hand to act as your ally?
16206The men of the microscope who see nothing but a speck, the census- mongers-- have they reviewed the whole matter?
16206The next day she asks you, with a charming air of interest,"How are you coming on with Madame de Fischtaminel?"
16206The only thing she feels is that your want of confidence was useless; if she wished to betray, who could hinder her?
16206Then his monotonous remarks:"''What o''clock is it, love?
16206Then what?
16206Then, what is the matter with him?
16206There would then be a struggle, a comedy: but how could the aconite of jealousy have taken root in his soul?
16206They sell their time for money, how can they give it away for happiness?
16206This energetic apprehension of things, does it not call into being an internal emotion more powerful than that of the external action?
16206Was Madame Schontz anxious about babies, about her bonnet, the lace of which was torn to pieces in the bushes?
16206Was Napoleon, during his campaign in Russia, a prey to the most horrible pangs of dysuria, or was he not?
16206Was he put out?
16206Well, I declare, you accuse the Empress, do you?
16206Well, my poor child[ you must not call her_ my poor child_ excepting when the crime has not been committed]--why deceive ourselves?
16206Well, shall I deceive the marrying class of the population, and scratch the passage out?
16206Well, then, O goddess of modern taste, do not these expressions seem to you characterized by a transparency chaste enough for anybody?"
16206Well, then, where are your means of defence?-- Where, indeed?
16206Were the ancients then our masters in political institutions as in morality?
16206What advantage is it that we have made the whole universe subserve our existence, our delusions, the poesy of our life?
16206What are you doing now?
16206What are you thinking of?
16206What are you thinking of?
16206What are you?
16206What can be the matter with me?
16206What can you say in reply?
16206What did you tell your husband?"
16206What do you do with it?
16206What do you mean by"Jesuit?"
16206What do you mean to do?
16206What do you propose doing?
16206What do you want?"
16206What do you wear on your head at night?"
16206What does a husband proclaim?
16206What does he want?
16206What good will I be in this reconciliation?"
16206What happy or what fatal influence can not the porter exercise upon their lot?
16206What have you done with it?"
16206What hope is there for the unfaithful wife?
16206What human faces, what monuments of the dead are not made more beautiful than actual nature in the artistic representation?
16206What husband is stoical enough to resist such fires, such frosts?
16206What instructions can we give for contending with such adversaries as these?
16206What is a_ Villa Adolphini_ where you get nauseated if you go six times round the lawn?
16206What is held to be more shameful in France than impotence, than coldness, than the absence of all passion, than simplicity?
16206What is it that produces this wonderful characteristic of humanity?
16206What is life, I should like to know?"
16206What is my husband doing?
16206What is our debt to the perpetuation of the race?
16206What is the first course of a young girl after having purchased a parrot?
16206What is the good of all this?
16206What is the good of blowing the trumpet before victory?"
16206What is the result which these reflections on the feminine virtue lead to?
16206What man has a mind supple enough to lay aside brute force and strength and follow his wife through such mazes as these?
16206What man has ever heard the moral reflections and the corrupting confidences of these young girls?
16206What must that life have been, if this slight residuum of memory offers us such volumes of delight?
16206What result can possibly follow on exertions so ill- proportioned to the resources of the delicate sex?
16206What risks will not a passionate woman run when she becomes aware that her husband is a heavy sleeper?
16206What should be the conduct of a husband, when he recognizes a last symptom which leaves no doubt as to the infidelity of his wife?
16206What starts the quarrel?
16206What then is meant by an honest woman?
16206What was I saying?"
16206What will you do?"
16206What''s the matter, mamma?
16206What''s the matter?
16206When a woman utters the name of a man but twice a day, there is perhaps some uncertainty about her feelings toward him-- but if thrice?
16206When are you going to take leave?
16206When can a husband be sure he has attained this nautical point?
16206When the heroic and exceptional young victim leaves the drawing- room, what a deluge of jokes bursts upon his innocent head?
16206Where are you?
16206Where do you put it?
16206Where do you wish that our mass of celibates should sow their wild oats?
16206Where have you come from?"
16206Where is the powerful barrier to restrain her, raised by the light hand of a woman whom you wish to please, because you do not possess?
16206Where must we seek for the causes of this law?
16206Where shall we go this evening?
16206Who and what is there that does not pass off, or become passe?
16206Who has not heard an Italian opera in the course of his life?
16206Who has not seen on reading the_ Confessions_ of Jean- Jacques, that Madame de Warens is described as much prettier than she ever was in actual life?
16206Who knows but we may get him elected deputy for Viviers, in the course of time?
16206Who perverted them?"
16206Who would not at the present moment wish to retain the persuasion that wives are virtuous?
16206Why did I marry?
16206Why did he not take me with him?"
16206Why did n''t you tell me about Frederick?"
16206Why do n''t you enumerate to the viscountess the astonishing precautions manifest in the Oriental luxury of the Roman dames?
16206Why do n''t you speak, my pet?
16206Why do n''t you take Monsieur Deschars for a model?"
16206Why do you not answer me?
16206Why has he left me?
16206Why should we fill them with vexation?
16206Why?
16206Will it be likely to live?
16206Will you grant that a lover must put on more clean shirts than are worn by either a husband, or a celibate unattached?
16206Wo n''t you come to me?"
16206Women hypocritically ask her if she is indisposed and"Why do n''t you dance?"
16206Would it be right to marry young women without providing a dowry and yet exclude them from the right of succeeding to property?
16206Would it be taking a liberty to ask what science it treats of?"
16206Would you believe that it is during the night, when we are the most closely united, that I am the most alone?
16206Would you have the power to send your wife''s lover off by securing his promotion, or his change of residence by an exchange, if he is a military man?
16206Would you hesitate?
16206Would you like to be murdered by me?"
16206Would you like to come with me?
16206Would you like to go in?"
16206Would you love a women because she is well dressed, elegant, rich, keeps a carriage, has commercial credit?
16206Would you pretend that it is the right thing that woman should be made common?
16206You are married, and do you deliberately set about making love to some one else?
16206You ask the group collectively,"How do you like it?"
16206You do n''t know your own happiness: come, what is it?"
16206You do not believe that your wife will call out regiments and sound the trumpet, do you?
16206You talk for ten minutes more without the slightest interruption, and then you ejaculate another"Well?"
16206You took it by the hour, I suppose?
16206_ The Touch and Go Mouse- Trap._ THE WIFE.--Why did you go away so early this evening?
16206cried Madame B-----, opening the door of the closet where the baron was frozen with cold, for this incident took place in winter;"how is this?
16206cried a gentleman from the West, impatiently rising to his feet,"are we here to dilate upon the advancement of music?
16206cried the husband,"if you would save your life, answer me--Where is the traitor?"
16206madame,"I said,"will you ever requite me for all the hatreds which that work will array against me?"
16206my dear, can not you guess?
16206no ear- rings?"
16206or better than that, what artifices will she resort to to arm them against you?
16206returns Caroline,"what is life to me?"
16206says Justine to herself,"monsieur wants to send me away, does he?
16206she answered, laughing,"if the thing is the same, what does it matter whether it be expressed in two syllables or in a hundred?"
16206she said to me,"who can enjoy it more than we and with less cause of fear?
16206sir,"continued the husband, who was warming to his subject,"can I not find also admirable pretexts in my solicitude for her heath?
16206then you_ have_ been there?"
16206what is more ugly than a wig?
16206where they''ve planted chair- legs and broom- sticks on the pretext of producing shade?
16206would you deny the existence of love on the day after that of marriage?"
13159''Chantage''seems to mean your money or your life?
13159A German? 13159 A complaint, I expect?"
13159A divine prompting to fulfil my mission here on earth by consoling you.--What great trouble can you have at your age?
13159A good shot?
13159A man of your stamp will not be surprised by the question which I am about to ask?
13159A play- actor, is he?
13159A subscription dating from October?
13159After all, if I have a rough time of it, so had the old man; besides, I shall be working for myself, shall I not?
13159After all, what did I see?
13159Ah, by the by, how do you mean to set about it? 13159 Ah, by the by, there is not a place in the house, is there?"
13159Ah?
13159Aha?
13159And are you going to drag that excellent creature into such a business?
13159And are you not satisfied yet?
13159And as for you, child,said Finot, turning to a pretty girl in a peasant''s costume,"where did you steal these diamond ear- drops?
13159And betray such an angel? 13159 And do you live by looking at his wife?"
13159And fame?
13159And how about me? 13159 And how about our sonnets,"said Michel Chrestien;"is that the way they will win us the fame of a second Petrarch?"
13159And how are you going to prove to me that you can make good paper that costs nothing out of nothing, eh?
13159And how, pray, do I come to owe you seven hundred francs?
13159And if she would not leave the stage?
13159And the horses? 13159 And what are you going to create for us?"
13159And what do you do?
13159And what has my brother done that we should not make much of him?
13159And what sort of a friendship is it which recoils from complicity?
13159And what was this Chardon?
13159And what would become of European federation?
13159And where shall we find the money to meet bills for three thousand francs?
13159And whose should they be?
13159And why is he not here?
13159And why not? 13159 And why?"
13159And why?
13159Are you a good swordsman?
13159Are you a''Classic''or a''Romantic''?
13159Are you bringing news of my son?
13159Are you going to allow us to make attacks on our_ betes noires_?
13159Are you going to take any partners?
13159Are you just getting up, Coralie?
13159Are you living with Coralie until you can do better?
13159Are you mad, sir? 13159 Are you not happy?
13159Are you pretty middling? 13159 Are you resolved to kill yourself to escape dishonor, or do you despair of life?
13159Are you satisfied?
13159Are you satisfied?
13159Are you so fond of that young Rubempre?
13159Are you sure of payment?
13159Are you sure of yourself?
13159Are you sure of_ your_ part of the business?
13159Are you sure, dear, of that little rogue Cerizet?
13159Are you writing the dramatic criticism, monsieur?
13159Are your debts so heavy?
13159As if one_ asked_ for such a thing as that? 13159 At midday?"
13159Besides, my boy, what grudge had you against the theatre? 13159 Bills at nine months?"
13159Brought the money with you?
13159But do you grudge me such a very natural feeling?
13159But have you yourself a copy of the paper? 13159 But how about your reviews?"
13159But how did you know my address?
13159But how?
13159But in a year''s time shall we have placed a hundred copies of_ Leonide_?
13159But suppose that he had taken that view, what would you do?
13159But what am I to say?
13159But what am I to say?
13159But what can we do to escape them?
13159But what is he doing now, at this moment? 13159 But what will Nathan say?"
13159But who is going to be there?
13159But who was his father?
13159But you would be with me, would you not?
13159But you write political articles, do n''t you?
13159But, madame,he objected, for her words aroused a lively curiosity,"is not the Heron under your protection?"
13159But, monsieur,objected Eve,"how should we live while the experiments were being made?
13159But,asked Lucien,"how are you going to write your reviews?"
13159By the by, darlings, you will take care of me to- morrow, wo n''t you?
13159Can I do anything for you?
13159Can he feel suspicious of my attentions?
13159Can he have been putting money by?
13159Can men and women who write ever fall in love with each other? 13159 Can not see anybody yet?"
13159Can you call Bonaparte''s fortune luck, eh? 13159 Can you do as you like?"
13159Can you tell us of a bill- broker that will look at us?
13159Come, you have something to tell me, have you not? 13159 Could n''t you get Dauriat''s cashier to discount this bit of a bill for a hundred francs?"
13159Could you let me have that book?
13159Credit your account?
13159Dear Eve, have you known that I loved you since the first day I saw you?
13159Did the porter see us? 13159 Did you ask him to supper here the day after to- morrow?"
13159Did you bring an amulet with you from the provinces?
13159Did you fetch me over to hear this?
13159Did you make the rules of the game of ambition? 13159 Distraction?
13159Do I owe to you, madame, the pleasure of an invitation to dine at the Prefecture the day after to- morrow?
13159Do n''t you hear?
13159Do n''t you see that this Chardon takes the civility of a woman of the world for an advance? 13159 Do tell me, dear, why you took the trouble to put your father in the House of Peers?"
13159Do the Cointets want six thousand francs of you?
13159Do you dare to come here, sir? 13159 Do you find this very amusing, Fifine?"
13159Do you know d''Arthez?
13159Do you know how I make a living?
13159Do you know what Nathan said by way of comforting himself after your criticism?
13159Do you know what Vignon puts me in mind of?
13159Do you kow vot you do ven you trink ein pottle of vine? 13159 Do you mind losing a couple of thousand francs, Lucien?"
13159Do you not know me?
13159Do you not see the first beginnings of the vision of the poem, like the flame of dawn, in his eyes?
13159Do you read the riddle?
13159Do you really mean to accept the invitation?
13159Do you really stick to your written opinions?
13159Do you see now what journalism is, Lucien? 13159 Do you suppose that Dauriat has read your sonnets or sent them to any one else?"
13159Do you think du Bruel''s piece will pay?
13159Do you think me a base poltroon? 13159 Do you think so?
13159Do you think that I am counting on my father''s death?
13159Do you think that I am noodle enough to tell you that? 13159 Do you want the truth?"
13159Do you work quickly?
13159Do_ you_ intend to patronize a young man''s bootmaker? 13159 Does Victoire know anything?"
13159Does that suit you?
13159Florine, child,said this personage,"are you sure of your part, eh?
13159For what day?
13159For what do you take me?
13159Four francs four sous?
13159From what date do you wish your subscription to commence, sir?
13159Gabusson, my friend,he said,"from this day forward, when anybody begins to talk of works in manuscript here-- Do you hear that, all of you?"
13159Has he ability?
13159Has my brother gone out?
13159Have I the pleasure of addressing M. Lucien Chardon?
13159Have n''t I been in Paris for three years?
13159Have you a vested interest in him? 13159 Have you anything else?"
13159Have you breakfasted, Lousteau?
13159Have you breakfasted, monsieur; will you keep us company?
13159Have you breakfasted? 13159 Have you had enough?"
13159Have you killed a man? 13159 Have you pistols?"
13159Have you read Voltaire?
13159Have you renewed the acquaintance?
13159Have you some incurable disease?
13159He has doubts of us; has it come to this?
13159He is right,said Eve;"you yourself were saying, were you not, that he ought to go to Paris at once?"
13159Her husband is dead now; died, as he was bound to die, of an indigestion; could you doubt that she would be free sooner or later? 13159 Here am I doing five francs''worth of composing for two francs a day, and do n''t you think that that is enough?
13159How about your conscience?
13159How can I stay in Angouleme after such a disgrace? 13159 How can such an article fail to sell an edition?"
13159How can we do it?
13159How can we find a way of communicating with Basine if none of us can go to her?
13159How can you think that, if you know me?
13159How could that article have been written unless the attack had preceded it?
13159How do you know that, my pet?
13159How if I should come to behave as he does?
13159How if we invented one or two cases of refusal of burial with aggravating circumstances?
13159How is that?
13159How long do you want? 13159 How many copies of Ducange did you place last journey?"
13159How much is still owing of the purchase- money of the Verberie?
13159How much shall I get?
13159How much?
13159How should I be writing prose otherwise, eh?
13159How should I know?
13159How so; what have you done that you must die? 13159 How?"
13159How?
13159How?
13159I am an orphan, I shall be drawn for the army next year, and if I get a bad number who is there to pay some one else to take my place?
13159I am in my own house, am I not?
13159I love you----"As much as you love Lucien?
13159I say, my little Florville, are you cured already of your fancy? 13159 I?
13159If I were to announce such conceptions, I should give myself out for a man of genius, should I not?
13159If he wishes to drop his patronymic and to bear his mother''s name, he should at any rate be on the right side, should he not?
13159If it were not, how could you make it tell against Nathan''s book?
13159If that is the case,said Eve,"why should we not wait awhile before binding ourselves to the Cointets?"
13159If you loved us as we love you, would you have been in such a hurry to return the money which we had such pleasure in lending? 13159 If you make yourself useful,"said the well- to- do printer,"why should not somebody advance the money?"
13159Is M. Braulard in?
13159Is he coming, Lousteau?
13159Is he dead?
13159Is he going to pay well?
13159Is it a nickname?
13159Is it an offer?
13159Is it really true?
13159Is it severe?
13159Is it worth while to make a fuss about a trifle? 13159 Is monsieur content?"
13159Is monsieur dining with madame?
13159Is my agreement with Lousteau made out in duplicate and ready to sign?
13159Is n''t d''Arthez their visible head?
13159Is n''t it a love of a press?
13159Is n''t it better to have somebody who knows the workshop?
13159Is n''t it nice?
13159Is n''t she charming?
13159Is not such happiness as this enough?
13159Is that a good thing?
13159Is that why your lordship is thinking of marriage?
13159Is that your_ ultimatum_?
13159Is there a letter for me?
13159Is there any sufficiently serious personage to go down to speak to him?
13159Is there no way of offering another head to the spirit of evil? 13159 Is your business likely to keep you long, Dauriat?"
13159It is time that life was made smooth for him, is it not?
13159It would be a droll thing if the sonnets were no good after all,said Vernou.--"What do you yourself think of your sonnets, Lucien?"
13159Look here, though, M. Chaboisseau, the bills are either all of them good, or all bad alike; why do n''t you take the rest?
13159Look there,he continued,"at that young man sitting beside Coralie--what is his name?
13159Look, madame,she said,"I have had twelve francs out of your father- in- law, and here they are----""How did you do it?"
13159Lord, he is not a prince, nor a lord, nor a member of parliament, nor a bishop; why are his hands as white as if he did nothing?
13159Lousteau, dear boy, who is the handsome young man that you have brought with you?
13159Love, you were saying just now that he would want two thousand francs?
13159Lucien surely has written you a line since he came back, has he not?
13159Lucien,said David,"do you know what I have just received from Paris?"
13159Lucky?
13159M. Chardon, do you know why the ladies left you at the Opera that evening?
13159M. de Rubempre,said the Marquise with flattering graciousness,"this is your first visit to the Opera, is it not?
13159M. de Senonches, would you have recognized M. de Rubempre?
13159M. le Cure, what brings you here, eh?
13159Madame la Comtesse is thinking of all that our poet''s triumph entails?
13159May I not know the secret?
13159May I try him?
13159Money? 13159 Must I leave desolation behind me?"
13159My beautiful Louise, do you mean in very truth to be my Beatrice, a Beatrice who condescends to be loved?
13159My boy, do you see that dull- brained fellow?
13159My dear boy, what country can you come from? 13159 My dear child, what are you thinking about?
13159My good man, do you suppose that when you have paid some ten thousand francs for your son, that there is an end of it? 13159 My plan is extremely simple, David; but how could I tell you about it while Eve was there?
13159Nais is treating us very badly,said Fifine;"what can she be doing?"
13159Nais, dear,she said,"do you know what everybody is talking about in Angouleme?
13159Nobody knows your secret?
13159Not exactly; but he must be in jail for some time----"And what is the object?
13159Nothing?
13159Now, would not anybody think that he was Rousseau and Voltaire rolled in one?
13159Of Lucien?
13159Oh, indeed, are you turning thief in your old age? 13159 Oh, why did you not give us notice, madame?
13159Or is he scheming out, at this moment, some way of not paying me?
13159Ought I to make a scene and leave Coralie?
13159Sabots?
13159She is a druggist''s widow, is she not? 13159 Since when have you begun to recognize the Emperor''s barons?"
13159So he is one of us?
13159So that is your opinion of the honors shown me by my fellow- townsmen, is it?
13159So this is how a newspaper is written?
13159So what must you put in that comely head of yours? 13159 So you have hooked your journalist, have you?"
13159So you want my thanks and esteem into the bargain, do you?
13159Sold it to Braulard?
13159Something seems to have annoyed you, monsieur?
13159Still you came here for something, did n''t you?
13159Stop a bit,said the miller,"that printer is the son of the old skinflint who farms his own land at Marsac, is n''t he?"
13159Suppose it should be dangerous to take him in?
13159Suppose that some Minister fancies that he has you fast by the halter of your apostasy, and turns the cold shoulder on you? 13159 Suppose that they play you false, what will you do?"
13159Suppose that we take the virtuous representatives of the Right?
13159Suppose that you were to go back to your own country, how are you to get there?
13159The French language does not lend itself very readily to poetry, does it?
13159The newspaper?
13159The volume?
13159The_ Marguerites_ are not published yet; how can they compliment him on a future success?
13159Then are you sure that Florine can bring her druggist to make the bargain?
13159Then did you really think as you wrote?
13159Then do you imagine, my dear girl, that I sent for all this with the silly idea of shining in Angouleme? 13159 Then do you yourself expect these ordeals?"
13159Then how can you lay hold of Matifat?
13159Then is everything ready here?
13159Then it will do?
13159Then the_ Marguerites_ are mine,continued Dauriat;"but you will undertake not to attack my publications, wo n''t you?"
13159Then we can knock him over?
13159Then what are you investigating?
13159Then why do you amuse yourself by turning my article inside out?
13159Then why was she silent?
13159Then you do not care enough for me?
13159Then you mean to ruin Sechard?
13159Then, do you know the Rastignacs?
13159Then, is the leader of the_ claque_''Monsieur''?
13159Then, just now I am not so beautiful?
13159Then, what were these schemes which have turned to chimeras, madame?
13159Then, why does he call himself M. de Rubempre?
13159Und how should you and mein master meet? 13159 Vere shall we go?"
13159Very well, gentlemen; it is understood that we push Coralie, eh? 13159 Very well, then; can you not tell me about your troubles?
13159Very well; how are your presses doing? 13159 Very well?"
13159Was it really I who inspired those lines?
13159Was that your promise to me, Lucien?
13159Well, David dear, what do you mean to do?
13159Well, Lucien,she said,"have you heard the news?
13159Well, and if I did, what then? 13159 Well, and is there any harm in it?"
13159Well, are you satisfied with young Gannerac?
13159Well, have you thought over our friend''s proposal?
13159Well, monsieur,he said, looking at Chatelet with an important air,"is there anything fresh?
13159Well, shall I tell you? 13159 Well, sir?"
13159Well, so you are a journalist, are you?
13159Well, uncle,said Leonie,"what has brought you to Angouleme, since you will not take anything, and no sooner come in than you talk of going?"
13159Well, who else can have altered my article?
13159Well, will you not interest yourself in him?
13159Well,cried the haughty Negrepelisse,"and what has your sister''s marriage to do with the progress of our love?
13159Well,said Lousteau,"shall we go on with our business?"
13159Well?
13159Well?
13159Well?
13159What are they doing just now?
13159What are you doing?
13159What better could I have done?
13159What brings you here?
13159What but a nature that is noble only in its own region, its own sphere, its heaven? 13159 What call is there for him to show his face in fine society?
13159What can Petit- Claud have promised to do that you should be so friendly with him, my Lucien?
13159What can be happening at the Chardons''?
13159What can come of it Lucien? 13159 What can he be?"
13159What did I tell you?
13159What did she do? 13159 What did you do to the Matifat to make the thousand crowns?"
13159What do you mean by nothing?
13159What do you mean?
13159What do you mean?
13159What do you mean?
13159What do you say to that?
13159What do you think of doing?
13159What do you think of my poor sonnets?
13159What do you think of our poet and his poetry?
13159What do you yourself think?
13159What does he owe?
13159What does that bring them in at?
13159What does that matter?
13159What does the lady want to know?
13159What ground have you for these charges?
13159What has Lucien to do with the great people of Angouleme? 13159 What has come to him?"
13159What has happened?
13159What has happened?
13159What have yonder folk done to you, uncle, that you should mix yourself up in their affairs?
13159What have you done to Finot, Lucien, that he should make a special arrangement with you? 13159 What have you done with your''polls?''"
13159What have you there?
13159What have_ you_ written?
13159What is a first loss, if only your work was good?
13159What is going on in L''Houmeau?
13159What is he doing?
13159What is he going to do to get it?
13159What is it about?
13159What is it made of?
13159What is it, Kolb?
13159What is it?
13159What is it?
13159What is on foot?
13159What is that?
13159What is the law in France against the spirit in which it is received, the most subtle of all solvents?
13159What is the matter with you?
13159What is the matter?
13159What is the reason of that?
13159What is there extraordinary in that, my dear?
13159What is this after all?
13159What is to be done, do you ask, my friend? 13159 What is to be done?"
13159What is your family to me when you are an exception? 13159 What is your offer?"
13159What is your offer?
13159What is your own idea?
13159What is''chantage''?
13159What jokes have you made?
13159What kind of men can journalists be? 13159 What made you come out?"
13159What makes you think that, little man?
13159What object should I have in telling lies?
13159What prophecy?
13159What queer business are you up to?
13159What shall I do?
13159What shall I say?
13159What the devil can old Sechard and the tall Cointet have to say to each other?
13159What was to become of the connection if David gave up the paper? 13159 What were the stories?"
13159What will come of the prefect''s dinner?
13159What will she do now?
13159What will they say about me?
13159What? 13159 When can I come back?"
13159When does she ring?
13159When is your book coming out?
13159When you enlisted in the Sambre- et- Meuse, did they talk about danger?
13159Where are your twenty francs?
13159Where can he be going this time?
13159Where did he learn this pride? 13159 Where do you live?
13159Where does she come from?
13159Where does the young man come from?
13159Where has work brought you?
13159Where is the English press that could go at that pace?
13159Where is the newspaper put together?
13159Where is the use of my being a good foreman?
13159Where is the woman who does not feel that she is loved?
13159Where shall I put you down?
13159Where shall we get cash for these things?
13159Where will he be going? 13159 Which is the winning side?"
13159Which of the sonnets was it that you particularly liked?
13159Which of you has imported the Apollo Belvedere from Florence? 13159 Who are they?"
13159Who are''they''?
13159Who came just now?
13159Who can be so fond of Lucien that he could rouse the town for him?
13159Who goes there?
13159Who is here?
13159Who is that gentleman?
13159Who is the gentleman?
13159Who may she be? 13159 Who put that into your mouth?"
13159Who will love me now?
13159Who? 13159 Why are the Cointets persecuting him?"
13159Why can not I turn journalist to sell my volume of poetry and the novel, and then give up at once?
13159Why did you turn your back on society when you would have been so well received?
13159Why do n''t you have a carriage?
13159Why do you choose to suffer? 13159 Why do you take an interest in me?
13159Why do you take parts in which you have to say such things?
13159Why not the people out there in the street?
13159Why, darling, why are you crying?
13159Why, do you suppose that your son is fool enough to let his business slip away from him without thinking of something else?
13159Why, had I not to live?
13159Why, how did you make these sample bits?
13159Why, is it you, my boy? 13159 Why, really, my dear fellow, are you a child?"
13159Why, what is the matter with you?
13159Will it really be lawfully ours?
13159Will she always look like that?
13159Will you honor me by giving me your arm?
13159Will you leave it with me to correct? 13159 Will you look at mine and give me your opinion?"
13159Will you oblige me with an estimate?
13159Will you take a third at forty thousand francs?
13159Will you take five hundred copies of me? 13159 With_ him_?"
13159Would this have happened if you had married me?
13159Would you have thought the old fogy capable of acting like this?
13159Would you like us to go away?
13159Yes, my friend; do you think I should have come here in such a hurry but for that? 13159 Yes, what do you think of them?"
13159Yes; but when my son is at liberty, would he take me as his partner?
13159You are a schoolfellow of David Sechard''s, are you not?
13159You are an attorney, are you not, monsieur?
13159You are expecting some money to come in; but are you sure of it?
13159You are right, my dear friend,she said at length;"but what am I to do?"
13159You call M. Gille''s italics, running- hand and round- hand,''nail- heads,''do you? 13159 You child,"said the Spaniard, taking Lucien by the arm,"have you ever thought over Otway''s_ Venice Preserved_?
13159You do not believe in God?
13159You do not mean to make an enemy of Nathan, do you?
13159You have not told any one what you mean to do-- the Cointets, for example?
13159You seldom leave the city, monsieur?
13159You want something more of me?
13159You would be more comfortable here, would n''t you, than in a garret?--You wo n''t let her do anything rash?
13159Your mother''s fortune?
13159_ Canards_?
13159_ I_,cried the old toper, raising his hand to the lines of cord across the ceiling,"I who gave you life?
13159_ I_?
13159_ Monsieur_?
13159_ We_?
13159_ Why_?
13159''Does not France,''you will say,''sway the whole intellectual world?
13159''How did you spend it?''
13159--"Is Florine in her dressing- room, my pet?"
13159--Very well, then, we shall do that----""And live meanwhile?"
13159A fine engraving, eh?
13159A little sooner or a little later I shall be obliged in any case to do as I am doing to- day, should I not?
13159A sardonic expression accompanied the greeting,"How does_ he_ come here?"
13159After all, they are very good fellows----""Your invention?"
13159Allow twenty thousand francs for loss, for he can not always place all his tickets----""Why not?"
13159Am I not your Beatrice?
13159Am I to have no theatres at all?"
13159An angel must not be tempted-- what is that?"
13159And Camusot?
13159And Finot is in such a hurry to buy back his sixth----""Why?"
13159And besides, will not you and your mother need some one to lean upon then?
13159And by the by, did not the great Napoleon, who missed a voyage to the Indies for want of boots, say that,''If a thing is easy, it is never done?''
13159And can you suppose that she would like to be Madame Chardon?
13159And cry with a glow of fine enthusiasm,''Here are errors and misleading statements in abundance in our contemporary''s work, and to what end?
13159And did mother say,''Lucien is thinking of us,''and David answer,''He is fighting his way in the world?''
13159And do you ask why you must do these things?
13159And do you know what the nation will conclude from the debate?
13159And how, moreover, could they hope to escape the invisible spies who henceforth would dog every least movement of a man, unluckily so absent- minded?
13159And if I am?
13159And shall I ever find a better opportunity than this?
13159And so long as we can adore, is there not happiness enough in life?
13159And the Bank?
13159And under the circumstances, did not Marion show an exquisite delicacy of feeling by belittling, as it were, her kindness in this way?
13159And what do they think of me at home?"
13159And what is all this, after all, but the poetry of the senses?
13159And what was it but abdication to receive David?
13159And when I come out of prison, what will become of us?
13159And where and how am I to gain my bread meanwhile?
13159And where are they, the fools?
13159And who is the victim, if one may ask?"
13159And who will look after our poor printing office and the business that is growing up?"
13159And why should Comedy,_ qui castigat ridendo mores_, make an exception in favor of one power, when the Parisian press spares none?
13159And why?
13159And yet, what could be the motive of a mover in the intrigues of kings?
13159And you do not even care to play a return match?
13159And, after all, suppose that you should give me a pang now and again, who knows that I shall not still be your debtor all my life long?"
13159Another thought shaped itself in his mind-- Was Etienne Lousteau sorry that he had opened the gate of the temple to a newcomer?
13159Are n''t they just lucky?"
13159Are there certain tastes that should be regarded as verging on insanity?
13159Are they plotting something against him?"
13159Are you going to do better?
13159Are you jealous of fine ladies?"
13159Are you purchasers, yes or no?"
13159Are you still a novice?
13159Are you to sit down at a table and be witty to order?"
13159Are you willing to discount them for us?"
13159As Charlet says,''Quarrel with my own bread and butter?
13159As Minette says in the Vaudeville( do you remember?
13159Berenice left the room with the inquiry,"What time to- morrow morning?"
13159Besides, had not David been earning money, thanks to an education paid for by the sweat of his old father''s brow?
13159Besides, it would be money thrown clean away, for what would it bring in?
13159Braulard?"
13159But for that tyrannous longing, would Satan have found companions?
13159But has he quite interested us in her love for David?
13159But have you attempted to bring the full force of your will and every action of your life to bear upon your one idea?"
13159But how has something worse than our poor David''s arrest happened since yesterday evening?"
13159But to how many illusions had she not bade farewell?
13159But what does he want here?
13159But what is a literary life but a periodical recurrence of the impossible?
13159But what shall we say of Eve?
13159But who will guarantee that it will be the same with a batch of five hundred reams, and that your plan will succeed in bulk?"
13159But will a thousand francs be enough for you?"
13159But would one man in a thousand combine such intellectual gifts with such wonderful aptitude for taking the tone of society?
13159But you are mine, are you not?
13159But you will not play me any tricks, eh?"
13159But, meanwhile, would a thousand crowns ruin you?
13159Can it be that your love is influenced by the clamor of the senses, when it is the noblest privilege of the beloved to silence them?
13159Can you imagine that your old rival the prefect would be generous enough to sing your praises?
13159Can you not see that if you sow the seeds of reasoning among the working- classes, you will reap revolt, and be the first to fall victims?
13159Can you recollect yourself as you were then?
13159Cerizet saw that his fair employer distrusted him; in his own conscience he posed as the accuser, and said to himself,"You suspect me, do you?
13159Chardon?"
13159Clerget''s girls, do you understand?"
13159Credit the management of the Gymnase with tack and discernment; will it do to say intelligence?"
13159David asked indignantly,"and books to buy besides?"
13159David, my dear, my dear; what is this that you have said unthinkingly?
13159Did I not tell you, Lucien, that at the last you should have Coralie''s dead body for a stepping stone?"
13159Did a coal pop out of the fire?
13159Did the manager leave you out in the cold?"
13159Did you hear singing in your ears?
13159Did you notice an old soldier of the Empire in the den at the office?
13159Did you see sparks in the candle?
13159Do not all of us say more or less,"_ L''Etat, c''est moi!_"with Louis Quatorze?
13159Do the Liberals and the Opposition give places and rewards, and make the fortunes of men of letters?
13159Do you know that the sheet of advertisements alone, at fivepence a line, brought in five hundred francs last month?
13159Do you know the reason of the grudge?
13159Do you know why I am giving you this little history lesson?
13159Do you see that good- looking young man?
13159Do you see that mark?"
13159Do you see that theatre?"
13159Do you want me to do anything?"
13159Do you want to gain time?"
13159Do you wish for revenge?"
13159Do you wish to be where you are now after ten years of litigation?
13159Does anybody here care to take a serious article on Nathan for my new paper?"
13159Does not my success entirely depend upon my entrance on life in Paris through the Marquise d''Espard''s salon?"
13159Does that suit you?"
13159Does the phenomenon come within the province of the science of magnetism?
13159Doguereau?"
13159Even if she had scorned you, you had your way to make, had you not?--your name to win back?
13159Finot is coming.--Lousteau, old man, you will not refuse me, will you?"
13159Finot?"
13159Firmiani''s party to- night, are you not, and to the Duchesse de Grandlieu''s rout to- morrow?"
13159Florine, to pay thirty thousand francs for one- half a share, when Finot gave no more for the whole of it?
13159For what do you take Finot?
13159For what do you take us?"
13159For whom do you take me?
13159Great poets know this; Paul and Virginie die before youth is over; can we think of Paul and Virginie estranged?
13159Had he not a volume of poems and a magnificent romance entitled_ The Archer of Charles IX._ in manuscript?
13159Had he, Lucien, in his ambition, flung himself headlong back into the depths of L''Houmeau?
13159Haf I not peen in der army, and know my orders?"
13159Haf montame thought of hiding the master anywheres?"
13159Has he even persuaded us that the love existed in a form deserving the name?
13159Have I a greater interest than my Lucien in the world?
13159Have I not a destiny to fulfil?
13159Have I not abused your goodness already?
13159Have n''t you a poem that you thought a good deal of once, Lousteau?"
13159Have they no money?"
13159Have we not seen four dramas in a score of years-- the Revolution, the Directory, the Empire, and the Restoration?''
13159Have you any wish to marry after this?
13159Have you brought some charming poet for us?"
13159Have you forgotten that the Cointets are suing us under Metivier''s name?
13159Have you hooked an Indian prince?"
13159Have you never drawn your own conclusions from that fact?
13159Have you seen Rigaudin in Picard''s_ La Maison en Loterie_?
13159Have you seen the paper?
13159Have you seen your article in print?"
13159He began to debate within his own mind; was it not ridiculous to allow want to find him a second time defenceless?
13159He had succeeded at Angouleme, why should he not succeed in Paris?
13159He rose to his feet and took M. de Bargeton aside, saying,"Do you wish to speak to Stanislas?"
13159Here is the letter:--"MY FRIEND,--Why should I refuse to your brother in science the help that I have lent you?
13159His brother''s purse will be like his own, will it not?
13159His father''s house it was; but, after all, was he not working for himself?
13159His son owed him arrears of rent; how could he come by this rent in the scrimmage in which his son was engaged?
13159How am I to prove my claim to this sudden elevation?
13159How came you to make such a mistake?"
13159How came you to take him up?"
13159How can he maintain himself in the society to which his tastes incline him?
13159How can you afford to wait until the day when your creation shall rise again, raised from the dead-- how?
13159How can you allow such a silly scruple to turn the scale, when your future is in the balance?"
13159How can you express unless you first have felt?
13159How come you to be out on the road at this time of day?
13159How could it have been otherwise?
13159How do you explain it?"
13159How far have things gone with your romance?"
13159How far is the picture true?
13159How had she obtained those papers from Camusot?
13159How if you have made a mistake?
13159How should David and his wife, with Kolb and Marion to help them, escape the toils of a Boniface Cointet?
13159How should the drop fall unless the cup were full to the brim?
13159How was it possible in these rooms to see the life that Coralie led in its true colors?
13159How was it possible to draw up a deed of partnership unless they knew David''s secret?
13159How would you support your children?"
13159How, asked they, could any one employ a man whose father had been a Septembrist, a Bonapartist, and a drunkard to boot?
13159How, besides, was he to live while he was writing another romance?
13159I admit that you may be a great poet, but will you be a prolific writer?
13159I am listening to you, am I not?
13159I have been taken in----""She looks a lady- like girl,"returned Cointet,"and besides, if she were a beauty, would they give her to you?
13159I have more influence over Louise----""Who is Louise?"
13159I let Cachan talk to gain time for you; I am sure of gaining the day at Poitiers----""But how much will it cost to win the day?"
13159I was right, was n''t I, sir?
13159I wrote that article in the paper----""What?
13159If he wished to tell her about it, she could wait; if he did not, how could she ask him to tell her?
13159If you are resolved, as you say, to return to nothingness, everything on earth is indifferent to you, is it not?"
13159In a few hours David will be put in prison; will you allow him to go?"
13159In short, you dissemble, do you not?
13159Is it inherent strength in the vice, or inherent weakness in human nature?
13159Is it that affection finds out the ways of the heart, and we love to fall into them again?
13159Is it true that she left the provinces on your account?"
13159Is not my whole heart yours?
13159Is not the pain equally great for either?
13159Is the scaffold waiting for you?
13159Is there business in it?
13159Is there enough originality in the idea of obtaining for him by friendship all that hatred has done for you to tempt you to make the experiment?"
13159Is there not something ludicrous in the idea of submitting a square yard of soil and an estate of thousands of acres to the same legal formalities?
13159Is there really somebody behind Lucien?
13159It is fine; shall we take a walk along the Charente?
13159It is no fault of mine if you have not gained your end; are you going to keep your promise?"
13159It would be a terribly gloomy poem, would it not, a fanciful subject?
13159M. Milaud is going to Nevers, it is said----""But a man is usually second deputy and then first deputy, is he not?"
13159My cousin apparently sacrificed you to the Heron, but how could she dispense with his influence for you?
13159Nay, has he not done worse already?
13159No more following of a lass With the palsy in your legs?
13159Not three weeks ago I chanced upon the most charming raft that can ferry a man sick and tired of this life into the other world----""The other world?
13159Now you understand?
13159Now, I put it to you-- what is this but taking your neighbor''s money?
13159Now, after that, do you understand that I must have a black coat?
13159Now, let us divide Alexander''s empire.--Frederic, will you take the Francais and the Odeon?"
13159Now, sift this account thoroughly, and what do you find?
13159Now, what have we for to- morrow?"
13159Or had she taken it into her head to raise up a rival to Lucien in the portrait?
13159Or is it reason that tells us that we must either forgive or never see each other again?
13159Or, very likely--"I am just about to ring for a glass of_ eau sucree_; will you have some at the same time?"
13159Papa Camusot, I do n''t like men who drink, I tell you at once----""You will give that young man a present, I suppose?"
13159Papa Sechard, what are you doing there?"
13159Perhaps the world and its pleasures tempt you?
13159Perhaps you will be wanting an advance?"
13159Publishers should no sooner read the opening pages of_ An Archer of Charles IX._ than they should open their cash- boxes with"How much do you want?"
13159Quality, quality, what is quality to me?
13159Shall I not be with you in spirit, in spite of the distance between us?
13159Shall we not be united in thought?
13159She can be anything that she chooses; she is born to achieve all possibilities; can more be said of a boulevard actress?
13159She rose and went over to the Bishop and said:"What is being said, my lord, that you smile so often?"
13159Shut me up somewhere on the premises, so that nobody can come in and see me at work, and----""What?
13159So at the words,"Would you rather not go?"
13159So long as Lucien is young, people will like him; but where will he be as a man of thirty?
13159So you wo n''t spoil my business without warning me beforehand, so that I am prepared, will you?"
13159Some little affair of the heart has taken a bad turn, no doubt?"
13159Something like three or four months?"
13159Suppose that my father were to marry his cook, would that trouble you much?
13159Suppose that you and I had not a penny in the world, what should either of us do for a living?
13159Suppose that you sit down to a game of_ bouillotte_, do you begin to argue over the rules of the game?
13159Surely she will give you leave to come back in a fortnight, if only you go with her now?
13159Surely the lawyers of France and Navarre, nay, even of Normandy herself, will not refuse Petit- Claud his meed of admiration and respect?
13159Surely, she would spare you to us for a week, Lucien, when we brought you up for her?
13159Surely, too, kind hearts will give Marion and Kolb a tear of sympathy?
13159That was what you were thinking,_ hein_?
13159The Cointets certainly will make money by my discovery; but, after all, what am I compared with our country?
13159The fascination of the under world of Paris was upon him; how should he rise and leave this brilliant gathering?
13159The man or the disease?
13159The miller came up, gave Lucien a look over, and took his pipe out of his mouth to remark,"Three francs for a weeks board?
13159The most formidable men are her friends, and why?
13159The one day will be enough for our preparations; to- morrow night I shall set out, and you are coming with me, are you not?
13159The sins of the press?
13159Then Lucien fallen into the clutches of poverty would not have the force of character to resist evil?
13159Then can you arrange a definite engagement for Florine?"
13159Then is this person the lion of Angouleme?"
13159There is only Martainville''s paper left him in which to defend himself and Coralie; what can a single paper do against so many?"
13159They had more work than they could undertake, their presses could not keep pace with the work, would M. Sechard print for them?
13159They sat down on the sofa, and Chatelet began in an undertone--"You know what Angouleme is talking about, of course?"
13159This was a trap set for him by that lawyer; perhaps they wanted to work upon his paternal feelings, to get money out of him?
13159This young fellow is neither your son nor your lover, I suppose?"
13159This young man is a poet,"he added laying a hand on Lucien''s head;"do you not see the sign of Fate set on that high forehead of his?"
13159To be the sole possessor of a heart, to speak freely at all times, with the certainty of being understood, is not this happiness?"
13159Turning westward his old asthmatic pug- dog countenance, he gazed at you with big, lustreless eyes, in a way that said,"You were saying?"
13159Was he to be henceforth a stranger to the brotherhood?
13159Was it lucky or unlucky?
13159Was it not enough already, and more than enough, that the ruthless hunters were on the track of the quarry?
13159Was it not heroism in a wife who expected ere long to be a mother?
13159Was not this a beginning of an understanding?
13159Was she experimenting with herself?
13159Was she trying a first unfaithfulness to the memory of the dead?
13159Was the great lady angry with him?
13159Was there anyone else about?"
13159Well, do you care to know the inscription which a politician can read, written at large over your nineteenth century?
13159Well, how much has she?"
13159Well, now, young man, what would you have done?"
13159Well, what was I telling you, eh?"
13159Well, young man, do you believe in the last demi- god of France, in Napoleon?
13159What are they but birds in the forest?
13159What did I do myself, eh?
13159What did Richardson himself think?
13159What difference could it make?
13159What do they smash in Paris when a riot begins?"
13159What do we want but good manuscripts?"
13159What do you mean to be?"
13159What do you want with Dauriat?
13159What does he mean?"
13159What is Art, monsieur, but Nature concentrated?"
13159What is it but death to an eager pleasure- loving nature?
13159What is it but your duty to hasten to take your place in the succession of pleiades that rise from generation to generation?
13159What is it?"
13159What is the good of book- learning except to muddle your wits?
13159What is the good of our high thinking, David, if it does not enable us to disregard the petty ceremonial in which the law entangles our affections?
13159What is this but the command,''Strive to be rich?''
13159What is this but the mother''s anxious care of my dear poet, which I am in duty bound to take?
13159What is to become of a man with such a wife and that pair of abominable brats?
13159What is your share?"
13159What kind of victual does she eat?"
13159What more must you have?
13159What price do you set on my obedience?
13159What promise had she given?
13159What student could deny himself the pleasure of seeing Talma in one of his famous roles?
13159What was Voltaire''s apotheosis at the Theatre- Francais but the triumph of eighteenth century philosophy?
13159What was he in this world of contending ambitions?
13159What will it be to- morrow?"
13159What woman could guess that a handsome foot was hidden by the clumsy boots which he had brought from Angouleme?
13159What would Henriette say in a court of law?
13159What would become of me?
13159What would you have?
13159What would you think of a player so generous as to proclaim that he held a hand full of trumps?
13159What young man could envy him his graceful figure, disguised by the shapeless blue sack which hitherto he had mistakenly believed to be a coat?
13159What''s that?
13159What''s that?"
13159When an eagle falls, who can tell how far he may sink before he drops to the bottom of some precipice?
13159When shall I have an answer?"
13159Where are you living?"
13159Where did you pick him up?
13159Where is the thief?
13159Where shall we go?"
13159Where will a Coralie take you?
13159Where will you find a sister in Paris who will get up your linen in one day as you want it?
13159Which is the stronger?
13159Which of the two represented his own opinion?
13159Which of us could give judgement for Clarissa or Lovelace, Hector or Achilles?
13159Which of you now cares to write a pamphlet in favor of the system of primogeniture, and raise a cry against the secret designs of the Court?
13159Which side do you take?"
13159Whiter are we going?
13159Who could be hidden behind her petticoats?
13159Who has condemned you to die?"
13159Who has not heard his neighbor''s half- smothered oath on the entrance of some man in the forefront of the battle on the opposing side?
13159Who knows?
13159Who was Homer''s hero?
13159Who was responsible for it?
13159Who will give way?
13159Who, moreover, would not have found excuse in Lucien''s more than human beauty?
13159Why am I happier than you?"
13159Why break with her?
13159Why did you come out?
13159Why did you envy us the poor little almanac speculation, especially as we have always brought it out?"
13159Why disturb his harmless vanity?
13159Why had he not done as Marion had said, and earned money enough to pursue his investigations at leisure?
13159Why should he not do nobly that which journalists did ignobly and without principle?
13159Why should you give me everything?
13159Why torment yourself?"
13159Why, David, what do you suppose the license is worth?
13159Why, have you so much as studied the means by which simple merchants like the Medicis became Grand Dukes of Tuscany?"
13159Why, where is the harm?"
13159Will publishers come here to seek my_ Archer of Charles IX._ and the_ Marguerites_?
13159Will they upset the Government?
13159Will you build a second floor to your house, and some rooms above the shed?"
13159Will you do me the honor and the pleasure of dining with me to- morrow?
13159Will you hatch sonnets regularly?
13159Will you permit me to act as your harbinger?
13159Will you run into ten volumes?
13159Will you take something?
13159Will you think the worse of me if I attach a condition to my consent?
13159Women will worship that angel face of yours; wo n''t they, Eve?"
13159Would she receive David?
13159Would you give me twelve thousand francs?"
13159Yes, I shall always be a mark for envy-- did you not see that last night?
13159You are a thousand times cleverer than he; but do you belong to a great family, have you a name?
13159You are told that such a person as Jeanne Darc once existed; where is the use of that?
13159You do not mean to say that you have no mind to be even with those who drove you from Paris?"
13159You have a pretty face; I am very fond of you; you are a careful, hard- working woman; but that son of mine!--Do you know what David is?
13159You have my secret, do not breathe a syllable of it, and prepare to follow me.--Would you rather not go?"
13159You have nothing, you say?
13159You have your_ Archer of Charles IX._ to sell, have you not?
13159You have?
13159You may be at liberty by then, who knows?--Now do you understand how it was that I wanted clothes from Paris?
13159You mean to rule the world, do you not?
13159You mean to write, and yet you know nothing of current deceit?
13159You still mean to go on, do you not?
13159You will be glad to set on a few dogs to snap at his legs, will you not?
13159You will not give a refusal to a charming woman?
13159Your question?"
13159Zephirine turned to speak to the Marquise de Pimentel--"Do you not see a strong likeness between M. Chardon and M. de Cante- Croix, madame?"
13159_ your_ boots?"
13159am I to write the notice of your play and smile on your heroine as well?"
13159and by whom?
13159and that they are trying to turn David''s discovery to their own advantage?
13159and the coachman?
13159and the footman?"
13159and what of criticism, the critic''s sacred office?"
13159anything that people are talking about?"
13159are you coming, my boy?"
13159asked Dauriat, scowling at the author of the_ Marguerites_.--"To whom have I the honor of speaking?"
13159asked old Sechard,"or what is more to the purpose-- money?"
13159asks she,"that you can not meet your bill?"
13159child, do you not see that we are traveling on at the rate of four leagues an hour?
13159continued the priest;"do you practise openness, that fairest of virtues?
13159cried Fulgence, his voice rising a note each time;"we are capitulating, are we?"
13159cried Lousteau,"where do you come from?
13159cried old Sechard,"_ Sabots_?
13159cried poor Eve, cut to the heart;"what can have happened now?"
13159de Bargeton and M. de Rubempre in an equivocal position?"
13159de Bargeton give your brother in return for so many days spent at her feet?
13159de Bargeton left him with wounded susceptibilities, how often she forgave him or added one more condemnation to the rest?
13159de Bargeton''s heart?
13159de Bargeton''s husband by this time; but what can you expect?
13159de Bargeton) by desisting from his attacks on terms which a woman loves to grant-- do you take me?
13159de Bargeton, put up her fan, and said,"My dear, tell me if your protege''s name is really M. de Rubempre?"
13159de Bargeton?"
13159de Montcornet''s house?
13159de Rastignac manage to keep their son in Paris, when, as we know, their income is under a thousand crowns?"
13159de Serizy who has had so many adventures and yet goes everywhere?"
13159de Serizy''s acquaintance already?"
13159des Touches have taken a fancy for him?
13159did you write it?"
13159do you cry out against your foster- mother for a matter of fifteen francs?
13159do you love me?"
13159du Val- Noble; you meet great people at their house-- dukes and dandies and millionaires; did n''t they ask you and Coralie to dine with them?"
13159from the august height of a counting- house she flings an observation, full of commonsense, at the debtor,"How is it?"
13159have not all of you sacrificed yourselves to me?
13159have you heard about it?
13159how could I do otherwise?
13159how could you doubt the woman who made such sacrifices for you?
13159is he on the paper?"
13159it is I who am the atheist, is it?"
13159la Comtesse wish that the great man of her making should be received in Angouleme?
13159la Marquise says that all the wrong is on my side,"said Lucien;"so surely it rests with her cousin, does it not, to decide whether she will meet me?"
13159la Prefete and of the Government?"
13159my masters, so you have a mind to floor me, have you?"
13159or have made so much of it?"
13159protested poor Eve, turning to Petit- Claud,"have you vowed to ruin us?
13159repeated Lucien, looking from the prelate to the lady;"then, is one of us in fault?"
13159repeated Lucien,"and why?"
13159so that is the way he came back from Paris, is it?"
13159that is what you want to get out of me, is it?"
13159thought he, and seeing Lucien come in, he called out to him--"What is the matter, sonny?
13159was not the world created from nothing?
13159well, then she is very rich, is she, my boy?"
13159what am I doing here?
13159what can have happened?"
13159what does that matter to me?"
13159what does that matter, so long as you turn an honest penny?"
13159what have I done?
13159what is it?"
13159when?
13159who the devil are you angry with?
13159why did you not come yesterday evening to tell me this?
13159why do you think so much for me?"
13159will you venture to take it upon yourself to decide?
13159you bought books, did you?
13159you get up early of a morning to come and ask me to build you a place that would ruin a king, do you?
13159you love a woman and let her paddle about in the mud at the risk of breaking her legs?
13159you wanted Stanhopes, did you?
13159you will not let me see you at your work then?"
13159your cleverness leads you to imagine that I am going to reward this fine sentiment by building palaces for you, does it?
12900''Would you like an old gentleman of seventy- two?'' 12900 A feast in honor of the return of the prodigal father?"
12900A girl well known to you?
12900A green monkey?
12900A home off your own?
12900A lawyer?
12900A service of plate?
12900A sheet will be wanted to lay him out.--Where is there a sheet?
12900Ah, my dear Pons, how comes it that we never see you now? 12900 All sorts of horrors?"
12900Am I not worthy of respect then, heh?
12900Am I trembling?
12900Am I your legal adviser or am I not, I say? 12900 Amusing?
12900And I hear she has come round my Crevel, and little Steinbock, and a gorgeous Brazilian?
12900And I played my part very badly, did I not?
12900And Lisbeth?
12900And a sculptor?
12900And about my lover?
12900And are you very fond of Monsieur Vyder?
12900And can you read and write?
12900And did she say anything else?
12900And do you suppose, you great baby of a Machiavelli, that I will cast off Henri? 12900 And do you think that she loves him?"
12900And ears?
12900And for my part, I give you back the promise you made me when you gave me the hand of my dear Celestine--"What promise?
12900And for whom are you so magnanimous?
12900And has Heaven kept its word?
12900And have I not always told you,said Lisbeth,"that women like a burly profligate like you?"
12900And he came to Paris when the rebellion was quelled?
12900And he is in love with you?
12900And his Christian name-- is it a pretty name?
12900And how about my business?
12900And how can you tell that this is by Wat-- what do you call him?
12900And how could you do it?
12900And how do you know the Frankenthal ware when you see it?
12900And how have I cheated you?
12900And how is M. Pons going on, good man?
12900And how may that be?
12900And how much does he want for it?
12900And how? 12900 And how?"
12900And if he is to have the twelve hundred francs, what am I to get? 12900 And if you who had the honor of being intimate with Camille Maupin can pronounce such a verdict,"replied Stidmann,"what are we to think?"
12900And if your brother were to die, who would maintain your wife and daughter? 12900 And is it you?"
12900And is that desire the reason why you no longer visit Madame Hulot?
12900And is there a good dinner to- day?
12900And is this the way you take yourself off?
12900And is your lady pretty at any rate?
12900And it will go on----?
12900And meantime what is the justice of the peace doing here with his wax candles and his bits of tape?
12900And monstrously droll? 12900 And now for the next thing.--What about Coquet''s place?"
12900And on what, in such a place, could you spend so much?
12900And small hands?
12900And so he counts on that of Mademoiselle Hortense Hulot?
12900And so, thanks to you, mademoiselle, the Baron has wanted nothing?
12900And that is?
12900And the cause of such a disease?
12900And the disease is inevitably fatal?
12900And the flowers fresh?
12900And the furniture?
12900And the police agents, and the judges, and the assizes, and all the set- out?
12900And the tea?
12900And to whom?
12900And upon what grounds?
12900And was_ I_ in charge of the pictures?
12900And what am I to do in Algiers?
12900And what are you to get for such a job?
12900And what did Wenceslas think of her?
12900And what do you think of sculpture?
12900And what do you want to do?
12900And what does he live on?
12900And what is Wenceslas doing now?
12900And what is the cause of this deep- seated evil?
12900And what is the use of talking?
12900And what is wrong with her?
12900And where did you get all this splendor?
12900And where did you get this gangrene?
12900And where is he now?
12900And who slandered me so?
12900And why did n''t she marry him when she owed her fortune to him?
12900And why did you hide it?
12900And why has she deserted us for that stupid creature?
12900And why not?
12900And why, madame?
12900And why?
12900And why?
12900And would you have said as much, monsieur,asked Madame Hulot, looking Crevel steadily in the face,"if I had been false to my duty?"
12900And yesterday?
12900And yet you say you love me?
12900And you are going just as you are to M. Pons''funeral? 12900 And you have few pleasures?"
12900And you have walked from the Rue des Tournelles?
12900And you will keep my secret?
12900And you?
12900And your name?
12900And_ her_ cousin?
12900Are the rooms done?
12900Are you alone? 12900 Are you his heir?"
12900Are you on the lookout to better yourself somewhere else?
12900Are you rich?
12900Are you speaking of Valerie?
12900Are you talking Greek?
12900Are you then truly in love?
12900Are you tired?
12900Are you villing to take me for ein poarder? 12900 Be honest, my Wenceslas; Stidmann was there, Claude Vignon, Vernisset.--Who else?
12900Bet?
12900Bless me, do you think it is all a fable? 12900 But Josepha?"
12900But as to throwing two hundred thousand francs into a holy- water shell, or lending them to a bigot-- cast off by her husband, and who knows why? 12900 But did you not know that it was very wicked to run away from your father and mother to go to live with an old man?"
12900But do you know what Monsieur le Maire''s answer was?
12900But he is not a Pole; he comes from Liva-- Litha----"Lithuania?
12900But he sees her every day; will he try to find her a husband among his good- for- nothing sluts?
12900But how about the great fortune that you spoke of?
12900But how did you steal away my lover?
12900But how?
12900But if I die before I am rich?
12900But if a great artist could find a demand?
12900But if you have a lover, why do n''t you marry him, Lisbeth?
12900But if you knew about the affair, why did you let me chatter away like a magpie?
12900But if you should lose your place?
12900But is it possible, Ma''am Fontaine?
12900But is it the last?
12900But mit vat kann you rebroach him?
12900But she would still be cheating us; for, my burly friend, what do you say to this Brazilian?
12900But to give you a gem which cost him six months of work, he must be under some great obligations to you?
12900But what about my_ rentes_, what am I to do to get them, and--"And feel no remorse?
12900But what ails you? 12900 But what are Lisbeth''s two thousand francs?
12900But what has that unhappy Hulot done?
12900But what is his name?
12900But what is there about the man-- that old bulldog of a Baron?
12900But when?
12900But where is the use of the seals if M. Schmucke is in his own house and everything belongs to him?
12900But who is die prite?
12900But who is he? 12900 But why did you go?"
12900But why should you? 12900 But why, if you love me, do you not leave everything for my sake?"
12900But you must eat-- and who is to cook for you now?
12900But you will marry, all the same?
12900But you will tell me, old wretch?
12900But your wife loves you, I imagine? 12900 But, after all, Roger, what is it that is wrong?
12900But, cousin, has anything happened since the last time that I had the pleasure of dining here? 12900 But, mein friend, your Montame Dobinard is ver''nice; you shall marry her, is it not so?
12900But, my good man, how come you to be out in the street without a roof over your head or a penny in your pocket, when you are the sole heir? 12900 By your life eternal?"
12900Can a man with a nose like that,she went on,"have any secrets from his_ Vava-- lele-- ririe_?"
12900Can a mother sit still and see her child pine away before her eyes? 12900 Can despair possess virtue?"
12900Can the application be withdrawn?
12900Can they be seen?
12900Can we be alone?
12900Can you doubt it, mademoiselle?
12900Can you forgive, my dearly- beloved Adeline?
12900Can you hinder the marriage?
12900Come, now, my old friend, what is it? 12900 Come, what is it, Adeline?"
12900Could you send for the girl to come here?
12900Cousin Betty, I will be as mute!----"As a fish?
12900Cousin Betty,he said in her ear,"have you heard the news?
12900Dat used to komm to see du blav und sit peside you in der orghestra?
12900Dey summoned us to der court--"_ Summoned?_. 12900 Diamonds?"
12900Did I not hear you talking to Lisbeth of that Brazilian, Baron Montes?
12900Did Madame Marneffe ever speak to you of this cousin of hers?
12900Did n''t I tell you so?
12900Did no one ever tell you what was right or wrong?
12900Did you mention that it was the day when we all dine together here?
12900Did you not come here, sir, to ask for my granddaughter?
12900Did you see him go?
12900Did your parents ever take you to church? 12900 Do I know him?"
12900Do n''t you know that God has Paradise in store for those who obey the injunctions of His Church?
12900Do you feel equal to undertaking a statue nine feet high?
12900Do you feel sure that M. Leboeuf will give M. de Marville and M. le Comte Popinot a good account of you?
12900Do you find a positive drawback in an immense advantage? 12900 Do you know English?"
12900Do you know Monsieur Samanon?
12900Do you know that you are turning the universal legatee out of doors, and as yet his right has not been called in question?
12900Do you know the persons concerned?
12900Do you know the purpose of my visit?
12900Do you know what the collection is worth?
12900Do you know what the_ grand jeu_ means?
12900Do you know, madame, how Master Hulot and I first made acquaintance? 12900 Do you not know about our adventure with that Brunner, who had the audacity to aspire to marry Cecile?
12900Do you not know what it is to love a woman that will do anything for her lover? 12900 Do you really believe that?"
12900Do you really think that these things that we have just seen are worth a great deal of money?
12900Do you see that little wretch?
12900Do you suppose I could buy such a thing, or order it? 12900 Do you think he will get over it?"
12900Do you think so? 12900 Do you think that a daughter''s duty is less binding than a doctor''s?"
12900Do you think that you will frighten me with your sour looks and your frosty airs? 12900 Do you understand?"
12900Do you want to be flirting? 12900 Do you want to rid me of him?"
12900Does a man ever pull up on the road he has taken? 12900 Does heat disagree with you?"
12900Does that face look as if it belonged to a happy man? 12900 Does your conscience tell you nothing?"
12900Fifty, did I shay? 12900 Fine eyes is the truth,"said the Baron;"you have as fine eyes as I have ever seen----""Come, what are you here for?
12900Fond of him?
12900For his pleasure what would he not do?
12900For how much?
12900For what jeweler?
12900For whom are you making this pretty thing?
12900For you have swallowed not a few bitter pills!--in these three years-- hey, my beauty?
12900Go at once, and take comfort to your family.--By the way,added the Prince, as he shook hands with Victorin,"your father has disappeared?"
12900Go on, go on,said Schmucke;"I shall pe allowed to die in beace, I bresume?"
12900Gone? 12900 Good- day, cousin; so now you are to be called Thorec, I suppose?
12900Had you some violent shock a couple of days ago?
12900Has Josepha thrown him over, packed him off, turned him out neck and crop? 12900 Has M. Schmucke ordered something?
12900Has he a moustache?
12900Has nobody been to speak to you about M. Pons and his gimcracks?
12900Have I dipped my hands into a cash box intrusted to my care?
12900Have you Vitel''s resignation?
12900Have you any message, madame, for M. Leboeuf? 12900 Have you been speaking, my dear?"
12900Have you come to dinner?
12900Have you done anything?
12900Have you forgotten me?
12900Have you not had a good genius to keep an eye on you?
12900Have you nothing on your conscience but the fact that you were concerned for both parties?
12900Have you the papers that prove your identity?
12900He famous?
12900He has delicate health?
12900He is a sort of Pole-- a refugee----"A conspirator?
12900He is going to make a statue, my dear, did you say?
12900He must be uncommonly fond of the woman?
12900He robbed the State, he will rob private persons, commit murder-- who knows?
12900Hector knew it?
12900Heir? 12900 Here is the portress of the house where the gentleman lives; she does for him, and I have arranged with her--""Who is the owner?"
12900His name?
12900How about her walk in the Tuileries?
12900How are you getting on?
12900How are you, my good fellow?
12900How can we make them love us?
12900How can you expect God to protect you if you trample every law, human and divine, under foot?
12900How can you load a poor girl, a pretty, innocent creature, with such a weight of enmity? 12900 How could one find out how much the things yonder in my gentlemen''s rooms are worth?"
12900How did he come to your house?
12900How do these women do it?
12900How do they manage it? 12900 How do you know all this when I have heard nothing about it?"
12900How does the gentleman wish''it''to be made? 12900 How far have they got?"
12900How is she any better than I am?
12900How long will it take you?
12900How much have you had?
12900How much to I owe you for this little trifle?
12900How much to you want of me?
12900How shall we get them?
12900How should I not love you?
12900How the devil do you manage it? 12900 How?"
12900I am going to be married--"How?
12900I am in your way, my dears?
12900I am quite disposed, Madame-- Madame----?
12900I am very willing,said the bewildered Baron,"but can I take the girl?"
12900I do n''t love you, Valerie?
12900I know Gerard and David and Gros and Griodet, and M. de Forbin and M. Turpin de Crisse--"You ought--"Ought what, sir?
12900I know all those sharpers,continued Pons,"so I asked him,''Anything fresh to- day, Daddy Monistrol?''
12900I say, Marneffe, what would you say to being a second time a father?
12900I say, Valerie-- is it the fact?
12900I shall only worry him more.--I will wait.--Are you going to be at home this evening?
12900I told the fellow Vauvinet to call on me to- morrow,replied Victorin,"but will he be satisfied by my guarantee on a mortgage?
12900I was a pretty fool not to listen to Lisbeth--"What did she say?
12900I will now pay a debt of gratitude that I owe you for my appointment to the mairie--"We go shares?
12900I will tell you everything----"What, is there more to come?
12900I, monsieur?
12900I? 12900 I?"
12900If he were of noble birth?
12900Impossible, my dear Hector?
12900In short, one can trust him, child, eh?
12900In what way?
12900In what?
12900Indeed, monsieur?
12900Indeed; how?
12900Instead of thinking over your ideas you must work.--Now, what have you done while I was out?
12900Is M. Pons really seriously ill, sir?
12900Is Marneffe, the head- clerk, out there?
12900Is Wenceslas gone out already?
12900Is Wenceslas in the studio?
12900Is he a foreigner?
12900Is he a prince?
12900Is it possible that M. Pons has such a fortune, living as he does? 12900 Is it possible?
12900Is my brother coming to dinner?
12900Is n''t she clever?
12900Is n''t this really fine?
12900Is she alone?
12900Is she bad to you, then?
12900Is that a face to bring in to your little Duchess? 12900 Is that what you have to say?"
12900Is the matter to take its course? 12900 Is the will sealed?"
12900Is there any hereditary lunacy in the family?
12900Is there anything that I can do for them?
12900Is this creature obstinate, I ask you? 12900 Is this gentleman the son, brother, or father of the deceased?"
12900Is this the way you receive me when I come like a Pope with my hands full of Indulgences? 12900 Is true love to be found in Paris?"
12900Is your lover in it too?
12900It is a criminal offence if you carry off a will and suppress it, but it is only a misdemeanor to look at it; and anyhow, what does it amount to? 12900 It is beautiful, is n''t it, mamma?"
12900It is dry then on the boulevards and the Place de la Concorde and the Rue de Bourgogne? 12900 Josepha?"
12900Kann you pe chealous of him?
12900Lisbeth is not in a fit state to admit you.--Are you afraid of catching cold in the street? 12900 Lisbeth,"said he,"they will not tell me what state my wife is in; you have just seen her-- how is she?"
12900Lisbeth?
12900Listen, dear little father; would you forbid my marrying a great artist?
12900Listen,said Hulot;"can you put me up for a few days in a servant''s room under the roof?
12900Living in the Rue Barbet- de- Jouy?
12900Livonia?
12900Look at madame; she is legally married--"Will it make it more amusing?
12900Look here, vat tid de toctor say?
12900Look here; can you stand six hundred thousand francs which this house and furniture cost? 12900 M. Poulain,"she began,"how can you refuse to say a word or two to save me from want, when you helped me in the affair of my accident?"
12900Madame Olivier?
12900Madame is not at home?
12900Madame, papa wanted to make me do something of the kind you speak of, but mamma would not have it--"Your mother?
12900Madame,said he,"we intend to try a powerful remedy which may save you--""And if you save my life,"said she,"shall I be as good- looking as ever?"
12900Mademoiselle Fischer living with a young man?
12900Mariette, my child,said Lisbeth to the woman who opened the door,"how is my dear Adeline to- day?"
12900Marneffe, like all dying wretches, who always take up some last whim, has a revived passion for me----"That cur?
12900Men have not even time to make a fortune; how can they give themselves over to true love, which swamps a man as water melts sugar? 12900 Mennseir,"Schmucke began diplomatically,"mine friend Bons is chust recofering from an illness; you haf no doubt fail to rekognize him?"
12900Mine goot Bons?
12900Mitouflet, how is the Prince?
12900Monsieur Crevel? 12900 Monsieur le Comte, do you love my daughter as well as I loved her mother?"
12900Monsieur,said Victorin to Bianchon,"have you any hope of saving Monsieur and Madame Crevel?"
12900Murder?
12900Must I place her in a convent?
12900My brother?
12900My dear child,said she, for they called each my dear,"why have you never introduced your lover to me?
12900My dearest Valerie,said he,"do you not see how miserable I am?
12900My good M. Schmucke, let us suppose that you pay me nothing; you will want three thousand francs, and where are they to come from? 12900 My name is Grasset, sir, successor to Louchard, sheriff''s officer----""What then?"
12900No, I am ein boor man, dot lof his friend and vould gif his life to save him--"But the money?
12900No, by your happiness in this world?
12900No, my child; but why do you ask?
12900Not so many words, my good woman,said Hulot,"but deeds----""What can I do, sir?"
12900Now then,said the Baroness to her daughter,"what does all this mean?"
12900Now, can anything be more absurd than explanations?
12900Now, do you understand my claim? 12900 Now, my dear little Cousin Betty,"said Madame Marneffe, in an insinuating voice,"are you capable of devoted friendship, put to any test?
12900Of what?
12900Oh, I say, are_ you_ going to worry me?
12900Oh, Monsieur Crevel, if you would indeed be my friend and give up your ridiculous notions----"Ridiculous? 12900 Oh, come, what is the matter now?"
12900Oh, do you think so?
12900Oh, happy? 12900 Oh, he gives lessons?"
12900Oh, what can I do for you? 12900 Old folk are sensitive,"replied the worthy musician;"they make the mistake of being a century behind the times, but how can it be helped?
12900On the contrary, sir, it is because I have the honor to remember you that I ask you, Where are you going?
12900One word, my little duck?
12900Onkel?
12900Or had some one to back him?
12900Ought any great artist to marry? 12900 Ought the beautiful Madame Hulot to be living amid such squalor?"
12900Pons is a bachelor,said they;"he is at a loss to know what to do with his time; he is only too glad to trot about for us.--What else would he do?"
12900Poor little man?
12900Pray, why?
12900Really and truly?
12900Really and truly?
12900Really, eh?
12900Really?
12900Really?
12900Seventy- two?
12900Several? 12900 Shall he speak to me?"
12900She has been so every minute of every day for six- and- twenty years; but I am not like her, it is not my nature.--How can I help it? 12900 She ought not to be ungrateful, for she owes her beauty to you,"replied Josepha;"but why did she not come to see me?
12900Shpout?
12900So I have been telling you very dreadful things, have I?
12900So it amuses you?
12900So my next- of- kin have sent you to me, have they?
12900So that is how you take it? 12900 So that,"said she, standing face to face with the Baron, and pointing to Cydalise--"that is the other side of your fidelity?
12900So this was your secret?
12900So you have no mind to be cashier at the theatre? 12900 So you have thought things over?"
12900So, my copper- colored Baron, it is our Valerie that you love; and you are not disgusted?
12900So-- it was at-- at Madame Marneffe''s that you dined-- and not-- not with Chanor?
12900Speak low.--What is it?
12900Suppose that she does not care for you?
12900Tell me, madame, is a man of fifty- two likely to find such another jewel? 12900 Tell me, my little Betty, do you not despise me?"
12900That needs some consideration.--Cydalise, child, are you fond of the blacks?
12900That will be enough, I suppose, to take you to Africa?
12900The day when I was robbed of Josepha I was like a tigress robbed of her cubs; in short, as you see me now.--Your daughter? 12900 The responsibility rests with you,"the Presidente answered solemnly,"so you ought to have full powers.--But is M. Pons very ill?"
12900The unexpressed factor is part of my revenge; what can I do? 12900 Then Cousin Pons is learned?"
12900Then I am to forgive you?
12900Then I am to sacrifice myself for you?
12900Then I will take this girl and carry her away--"Where?
12900Then between two old daddies, such friends as-- as we were, what more natural than that we should think of our children marrying each other? 12900 Then did you live with him?"
12900Then he means to make his will in favor of this Schmucke?
12900Then he ought to be chief mourner,said the master of the ceremonies.--"Have you a black coat?"
12900Then it was Monsieur le Prefet--?
12900Then it was she who told you about the candle in the window?
12900Then it will not be easy to marry her?
12900Then the banns are cried?
12900Then the people of whom you buy things of this kind are very stupid, are they?
12900Then what do you call happiness?
12900Then what is the matter with my poor Cibot?
12900Then you have four hundred thousand francs?
12900Then you mean that you really have a lover?
12900Then you never saw a church? 12900 Then you see no obstacle?"
12900Then you will not oppose my marrying your brother?
12900Then you will stay, will you not? 12900 Then, do you tell me, that if I leave you to act, and put my interests in your hands, I shall get something without fear?"
12900Then, sir, you meant to lend that old horror the two hundred thousand francs due for my hotel? 12900 Then, what did he say?"
12900Then, where did you find this?
12900Then, where-- where is----?
12900There is a husband he has pushed----"Where did he push him?
12900There, there, old lady,said Fraisier, with odious familiarity,"you will go a very long way!--""You take me for a thief, I suppose?"
12900These gentlemen must draw up their report as eyewitnesses to the fact; without that, the chief evidence in my case, where should I be? 12900 They have raised the price of the house?"
12900This, perhaps, is the first money your works have brought you?
12900To be exact, thirteen hundred; you will lend me the odd hundred?
12900To be sure, what is he doing?
12900To chustify it?
12900To see what a man can be like who can love the Nanny Goat?
12900To what account shall I post this item?
12900Too shtrong?
12900Torments?
12900Twelve hundred francs?
12900Two hundred thousand francs? 12900 Und how vill you dat I go?"
12900Und vy?
12900Valerie, do you love me?
12900Valerie, where are you off to?
12900Vat ees it now?
12900Vat is de matter mit you, mein goot friend?
12900Vat is it, mine boor friend?
12900Vere?
12900Very well, my sonny--"Zonny?
12900Very well; and you?
12900Vice under arms to meet virtue!--Poor woman, what can she want of me? 12900 Was n''t it a shame that she did not marry him after he had gained two thousand francs a year for her?"
12900Water out of the pools, I suppose?
12900We have not had the pleasure of seeing you at dinner lately; how is it?
12900We will leave Paris and go----"Where?
12900Well and good, you will let me alone, wo n''t you?
12900Well, and how is the dear fellow?
12900Well, and what did the young people say about me?
12900Well, and what then?
12900Well, but then you were really in love with this young man?
12900Well, child, am I to go to your house? 12900 Well, child, what can bring you here so early of a morning?"
12900Well, child,she said, in a totally different voice,"are you satisfied?"
12900Well, could we hoodwink you, you, one of the shining lights of the law?
12900Well, cousin, and how is the Inferno of the Rue Barbet going on?
12900Well, dear M. Schmucke, and how is our dear, adored patient?
12900Well, is that her writing?
12900Well, madame, where are these gentlemen?
12900Well, my child,said he, kissing her forehead,"so there are troubles at home, and you have been hasty and headstrong?
12900Well, my dear M. Fraisier, what is to be done?
12900Well, my dear lady,said he,"how are we getting on?"
12900Well, my dear monsieur,asked she,"how are you feeling?"
12900Well, neighbor, and how are things going on upstairs?
12900Well, old boy, so we are not very well? 12900 Well, shall I find a pigeon- hole for you?
12900Well, sir, did M. Pons remember me?
12900Well, suppose then I go up to Lisbeth''s rooms?
12900Well, then, my child, why should not Daddy Vyder be your husband?
12900Well, then, you promise me?
12900Well, then,said Madame Marneffe, with a breath of relief,"if you only love him in that way, you will be very happy-- for you wish him to be happy?"
12900Well, what is the matter?
12900Well, what the deuce are you doing here?
12900Well, why do you stop?
12900Well, you do not cry off the expenses?
12900Well,he said,"are things going as you wish?"
12900Well,said Lisbeth to the Pole, as she beheld him fascinated,"what do you think of Valerie?"
12900Well?
12900Well?
12900Well?
12900Well?
12900Well?
12900What are you about?
12900What are you going to do with her?
12900What are you talking about?
12900What are you talking about?
12900What are you thinking of, my darling?
12900What can I do for you, missus?
12900What can I do to become a Madame Marneffe?
12900What can I say, my darling? 12900 What can one do?
12900What did I tell her when she behaved so badly to him, and he as mild as milk, poor old fellow? 12900 What did he die of?"
12900What did the old thing do to move you to compassion? 12900 What did your pretty cousin say?"
12900What do I want with other folk?
12900What do you know about it?
12900What do you say to Africa?
12900What do you say to my scheme for sending this note to the studio at a time when our dear Hortense is there by herself?
12900What do you say to this programme for your friend Brunner?
12900What do you think of it all, my darling?
12900What do you want for her?
12900What do you want of me, my dear fellow?
12900What do you want with him?
12900What do you want, Remonencq?
12900What does he want so much money for?
12900What does your friend think of_ my_ cousin''s condition?
12900What for?
12900What good would that do?
12900What had you to say to me?
12900What has become of all the ladies and gentlemen?
12900What has happened to you?
12900What has happened?
12900What has happened?
12900What has he left to me?
12900What has that got to do with it?
12900What have I said? 12900 What have you to say against your brother?
12900What interest can you have in hindering my cousin''s marriage? 12900 What is Frankenthal ware?"
12900What is his name?
12900What is it all about?
12900What is it, Louise?
12900What is it, Victorin?
12900What is it?
12900What is my duty? 12900 What is that that you are mumbling in German?"
12900What is that? 12900 What is that?"
12900What is that?
12900What is that?
12900What is the matter, my dear Victorin?
12900What is the matter, my dear?
12900What is the matter? 12900 What is the matter?"
12900What is the meaning of all this?
12900What is there in Paradise? 12900 What is this?
12900What is to be done?
12900What is to be done?
12900What is to be said? 12900 What is to become of me?"
12900What is to become of us?
12900What is your business, madame?
12900What is your name, my dear?
12900What luck for you!--Has he had any adventures?
12900What maggot is that in your brain?
12900What men? 12900 What message did she send me?"
12900What oath can a Jew swear?
12900What of him?
12900What philtre do those baggages give you to rob you of your wits?
12900What proof have you of such a conspiracy?
12900What respectable life can ever procure so much in so short a time, or so easily?
12900What shall we come to?
12900What shall we do without her?
12900What the devil brought you here this morning?
12900What the devil can that worthy Baronne Hulot want of me?
12900What then?
12900What then?
12900What way is that?
12900What were you saying about sitting?
12900What will you do, left alone with your dead friend?
12900What would he give for it?
12900What, buy my daughter''s fortune at the cost of----? 12900 What, do not I love you, Josepha?"
12900What, is my father your patient?
12900What, killing?
12900What, the famous singer?
12900What, then, can I do?
12900What, you have had the money for the statue and the bas- reliefs for Marshal Montcornet''s monument, and you have not paid them yet?
12900What-- here?
12900What? 12900 What?"
12900What?
12900When I said to you,''You shall be mine,''what object had I in view? 12900 When did you hear that?"
12900Where are the relatives, the friends?
12900Where are the witnesses?
12900Where are you going, sir?
12900Where can that be turned into money?
12900Where is Valerie?
12900Where is he?
12900Where is it? 12900 Where is it?"
12900Where the devil has she been so early?
12900Where will he find the money?
12900Which Faubourg did you live in?
12900Which shall I be when the time comes-- Madame Crevel, or Madame Montes?
12900Which?
12900Who brought the master''s note?
12900Who but a Pole would wish to make a wife of a devoted mistress?
12900Who carved this?
12900Who else? 12900 Who has endowed you with this strength of ingratitude-- you who are a man of papier- mache?
12900Who is amusing you? 12900 Who is he?"
12900Who is the man you always stand at attention to salute?
12900Who is the man?
12900Who is the young man in whom you take so much interest?
12900Who is this gentleman?
12900Who is your gentleman, child?
12900Who on earth told you--?
12900Who put that into your head?
12900Who told you she was pretty?
12900Who told you so?
12900Who was the queer customer that took the fourth corner?
12900Whom do you call''One Steinbock''? 12900 Whom do you want, sir?"
12900Whom have I the honor of addressing?
12900Whose family?
12900Why I went?
12900Why are you here?
12900Why do you apply to me for two hundred thousand francs? 12900 Why do you keep him in hiding?"
12900Why does n''t the old man marry her?
12900Why give yourself so much bother, my dear old veteran?
12900Why have you come here, Pere Chardin?
12900Why not?
12900Why should you send me to Clichy? 12900 Why, if you had your own way, you would be man and wife within the legal period-- in eleven days----""Must we wait so long?"
12900Why, what is the matter, dear?
12900Why, what is this that your porter has been telling me? 12900 Why, you ask my advice?
12900Why,said Hulot, talking to himself--"why is it that out of ten pretty women at least seven are false?"
12900Why?
12900Will you be good to her? 12900 Will you come home to us?"
12900Will you do whatever I bid you?
12900Will you pay fifty thousand francs?
12900Will you still stand me out?
12900Will you write? 12900 Will you, sir, abandon me?"
12900Worthy Madame Florent--"You said the Rocher de Cancale.--Were you at the Florents''?
12900Would they take them themselves at that price?
12900Would you believe it, my cherub?
12900Would you give your daughter such a mother- in- law? 12900 Would you like me to disclose any more hideous mysteries that are kept from you?"
12900Would you like me to go for him?
12900Would you undertake a bronze statue?
12900Would you wish to be present, sir, when the seals are affixed in the next room?
12900Yes, Crevel, and, do you know? 12900 Yes, but which?"
12900Yes, madame, with old Monsieur Thoul, but he is very old and broken--"But what have you done with him? 12900 Yes; letters which prove that you are the father of the child my wife expects to give birth to.--You understand?
12900Yesterday, yesterday, he could dine with that woman, after having read my letter?--Are other men made so? 12900 You answer for the result?"
12900You are Monsieur Wenceslas, Count Steinbock?
12900You are Monsieur de Paron Hulot?
12900You are as limp as a rag--"Vat dos it matter vere von dies?
12900You are coming to us to- morrow, I hope, Mademoiselle Fischer?
12900You are employed at a theatre, and your name is--?
12900You are hearty?
12900You are laughing at me.--The Baron has already found consolation?
12900You are not laughing at me, Remonencq, are you?
12900You are very sweet on the little lady, Monsieur le Baron?
12900You can not go without sleep much longer, and who will take your place? 12900 You did not take a coach to come home?"
12900You do n''t seem best pleased at it?
12900You fancy that you are not the father of our little Crevel?
12900You had an amusing dinner last night?
12900You have no company?
12900You hope so-- why? 12900 You look as if you only half believed it,"added Lisbeth, turning to the Baron,"and that would be a shame----""Why?"
12900You love me, really? 12900 You loved him then?"
12900You never ask about him now?
12900You old profligate,cried Lisbeth,"you have not even asked me how your children are?
12900You owe all this to me, you old villain; now what will you do for me?
12900You truly love him?
12900You want Baron Hulot to be told that you have robbed him of his mistress, to pay him out for having robbed you of Josepha? 12900 You want me to so something for you?"
12900You were so good- looking?
12900You will be thinking of ordering the funeral service at the church, sir, no doubt?
12900You will come back in time to make tea for us, my Betty?
12900You will love your kind old Cibot like a mother, will you not? 12900 You wish to know how you may come to the guillotine?"
12900Your own self?
12900_ Combed your hair?_"He gave me a scolding for meddling in your affairs. 12900 _ I?_ Ein fein vordune?"
12900_ I?_ Ein fein vordune?
12900_ I_, cousin? 12900 _ It_, what?"
12900_ What?_.
12900_ Will_ you listen to me? 12900 _ You_ sold them?"
12900''Very clean and neat, and who does not take snuff, who is as sound as a bell, and as good as a young man?
12900''Was it very expensive, madame?''
12900''We shall see?''"
12900--"A cup of tea?"
12900--"Whom can Cecile be going to marry?"
12900--"Will you have some tea?"
12900--Baron Hulot was in love with Valerie?"
12900--However, he is ageing; his face shows it.--He has taken up with some little milliner?"
12900--I disgust you no doubt, and what I am saying is horribly immoral, you think?
12900--Now, come; am I to go without a hope?"
12900--The doctor, to feel my pulse, as it were, and see if sickness had subdued me--''You saw Monsieur l''Abbe?''
12900--What can I say?
12900--What does he live on?
12900--What was my aim?
12900--You perhaps will not believe me, but if I had my pocket- book about me, it would have been yours.--Come, do you really want such a sum?"
12900.?"
12900A lover?
12900A man is not a traveler in perfumery for nothing; I had blamed myself.--If I should lose her, what would become of me?
12900All of a sudden the sick man''s voice rang through the room; the tones vibrated like the strokes of a bell:"Who is there?"
12900Aloud he said,"How much do you want?
12900Am I deficient in intelligence?
12900Am I not a little mad already?"
12900Am I not a prisoner here out of gratitude?"
12900Am I not wrinkled?"
12900Am I to give account of myself to you?
12900Am I your bond- slave?
12900And Schmucke?
12900And besides, Cecile is tired of waiting, poor child, she suffers--""In what way?"
12900And besides--she is in debt.--How much do you owe?"
12900And do not these gentlemen tell us"--and she looked at the priest--"that God is revenged, and that His vengeance lasts through all eternity?"
12900And even now if I liked-- Look here, sir, you know that little scrubby marine store- dealer downstairs?
12900And how old is he?"
12900And is it by chance the object of your affections who is fretting you?
12900And my gentleman tells me that in a few months now he will be famous and rich----""Then you often see him?"
12900And now, how much for your board-- three francs a day?"
12900And on what pretext?"
12900And what the devil put the notion of going to the theatre into your head?"
12900And what was ten thousand francs for the furniture of the young folks''apartment, considering the demands of modern luxury?
12900And who does not know an idiot at once by an impression the exact opposite of the sensation of the presence of genius?
12900And who would make me such a present?
12900And why do you fly into a passion?
12900And why?"
12900And will not you and mamma accept him as my husband when you see that he is a man of genius?
12900And would you leave your property to_ them_?
12900And, after all, at our time of life what do we want of these swindling hussies, who, to be honest, can not help playing us false?
12900Are not you much handsomer than I am?"
12900Are the hatreds and jealousies of democracy incomprehensible after this?
12900Are there playhouses?"
12900Are two admirers of the fair sex to quarrel for ever over a petticoat?
12900Are you going to give the thousand crowns per annum?"
12900Are you going to talk about the guillotine again?
12900Are you listening?"
12900Are you so short of cash?
12900Are you still here, monster of ingratitude?"
12900Are you, like all these men,"and she indicated the guests,"madly in love with that creature?
12900As for music, it was his profession, and where will you find the man who is in love with his means of earning a livelihood?
12900As it happens, for the last six months, Bijou, who works for me-- his-- what shall I say--?"
12900As to the young man himself, my dear cousin, you remember what you told me?
12900At what would you value a copy of a Raphael?
12900Be calm; do not cry, Adeline--it is only for a month--""Where will you go?
12900Bless me, could they not sit by a man without doing wrong?
12900Brisetout a fine courtesy, and heard Gaudissart remark to his mistress:"Can Garangeot do the dance- music for the_ Mohicans_ in twelve days?
12900But as to helping you, as to using the Police as an instrument of private feelings, and interests, how is it possible?
12900But between ourselves, madame, when one has a right to expect seven or eight hundred thousand francs-- or a million, it may be( how should I know?)
12900But do you know that your monster of a husband took Jenny Cadine in hand at the age of thirteen?"
12900But do you know what your brother is?"
12900But how do you expect to make a tiger drop his piece of beef?
12900But in the matter of wills, there are wills so drafted that they can not be upset--""In what way?"
12900But that is not all.--Monsieur Crevel?"
12900But the doctor has given him up----""What is the matter with him?"
12900But then you will be mine alone henceforth?"
12900But we had to part!--Was it wicked?"
12900But what can a doctor do, no matter how clever he is, with such complications?"
12900But what can a poor relation do against a rich family?
12900But what is a man that can not put two ideas together in French?
12900But where can he get the money from?
12900But you, no doubt, set great store by a certain letter written by that woman with regard to the child?"
12900Camusot''s position will not do the same?
12900Camusot,"deprive him of one of his dinners?"
12900Can I still be desirable?
12900Can it be that the fortitude which upholds a great criminal is the same as that which a Champcenetz so proudly walks to the scaffold?
12900Can not that dreadful woman be content with having my father, and with all your tears?
12900Can not they see you?"
12900Can we be more wretched than we are already?"
12900Can you discover no more?"
12900Can you do all this by yourself?
12900Can you do it by patting his back and saying,''Poor Puss''?
12900Cantinet left the unhappy man in peace; but an hour later she came back to say:"Have you any money, sir, to pay for the things?"
12900Cecile to change her habits and ideas?
12900Cecile''s petulant gesture replied,"So are you-- who could help liking you?"
12900Celestine and her husband, as a hint to their father, glanced at the old maid, who audaciously asked, in reply to Crevel:"Indeed-- whose?"
12900Cibot, I believe?"
12900Cibot, why should you worry yourself like that?
12900Cibot,"cried Pons,"for what do you take me?
12900Cibot;"then I do not love you, I suppose?"
12900Cibot?"
12900Cibot?"
12900Cibot?"
12900Cibot?"
12900Could so depraved a creature as La Cibot exist?
12900Could such a woman as I am be what I am if she revealed her ways and means?
12900Could we live at all but for that?
12900Could you lend me a few hundred francs?
12900Could you not tell me in confidence?
12900Cousin Betty had on several occasions answered in the same tone--"And who says I have not a lover?"
12900Deal, plain oak, or oak lead- lined?
12900Did I do wrong?
12900Did Madame Marneffe''s cousin never go to see her when she was living in the Rue du Doyenne?"
12900Did not those few words deny all merit to the pains taken for her by the cousin whose one offence lay in the fact that he was a poor relation?
12900Did she show you--what?--her-- her religion?"
12900Did you never think of going into one?"
12900Do any of us know how such a timid creature is cast down by an unjust judgment?
12900Do they cover your eyes with walnut- shells?
12900Do you ask how I came to look for fans in the Rue de Lappe, among an Auvergnat''s stock of brass and iron and ormolu furniture?
12900Do you ask to what Parisian tribe this manner of man belongs?
12900Do you ask why?
12900Do you know him?"
12900Do you know that I have made nearly a hundred thousand francs in ten years?
12900Do you know that by one single phrase that woman has endangered my mother''s life and reason?
12900Do you know that within a short time he has become famous?"
12900Do you know the law- courts?
12900Do you know what you are?
12900Do you know your Catechism?"
12900Do you mean a young Livonian who was a pupil of mine?"
12900Do you really see nothing?
12900Do you recognize him?"
12900Do you remember those little frames full of enameled copper on crimson velvet, hanging among the portraits?
12900Do you see that young man in the box yonder?
12900Do you see?
12900Do you suppose that I have no soul, no beliefs, no religion?
12900Do you suppose that it is for two sous''worth of polish on your boots that I love you?
12900Do you think that we are made of iron?
12900Do you understand?"
12900Do you want a hundred thousand francs?
12900Do you want to drive us raging mad?
12900Do you want to go trotting after petticoats?
12900Do you want to have a hand in the master''s affairs, and swindle him, eh?"
12900Does it not rather result from the tyranny of a woman whom, as you told me, you can no longer love?
12900Does not Society imitate God?
12900Exactly as the question might have been put to the Chamber,"Will the estimates pass or not pass?"
12900Finally, she displaced the Attorney- General, M. de Granville--""That lived in the Rue Vieille- du- Temple, at the corner of the Rue Saint- Francois?"
12900Florimond the haberdasher in the Rue Vieille- du- Temple out of a fix in that matter of her friend''s legacy?"
12900For the last ten days I have thought of nothing but these cases-- for there are two, a husband and wife.--Are they not connections of yours?
12900For we, neither of us, will have anything more to say to Madame Marneffe?"
12900For you, madame, are surely Monsieur Crevel''s daughter?"
12900For your india- rubber belt, your strait- waistcoat, and your false hair?
12900Fraisier?"
12900Get this well into your head.--You want two hundred thousand francs?
12900Give me some proof.--Have you a key, as I have, to let yourself in?"
12900Good Heavens!--Why do you not answer me?"
12900Had we better tell my mother?"
12900Has God taken pity on our family?"
12900Has he taken the hook?"
12900Have n''t you nothing to reproach yourself with?
12900Have you a hobby?
12900Have you any?
12900Have you been to your first Communion?
12900Have you ceased to trust me-- your good genius?
12900Have you come to sleeping with Adeline to drink her tears while she is asleep?"
12900Have you ever heard me say a word I ought not on such a subject?"
12900He brings me bonbons and burnt almonds, and chocolate almonds.--Aren''t they good?
12900He has queer ideas, has the worthy man.--Well, what do you say to it?"
12900He is hiding, and I wish he could be free--""Why?"
12900He is ten years younger than the Baron, to be sure, and was only a tradesman; but how can it end?
12900He might have actually heard the conference between Fraisier and the portress:"Did I not guess exactly how it would be?"
12900He was paying his court to a little person--""Whom?"
12900His discretion was well known; indeed, was he not bound over to silence when a single imprudent word would have shut the door of ten houses upon him?
12900His early fame, his important position, the delusive eulogies that the world sheds on artists as lightly as we say,"How d''ye do?"
12900Home is the grave of glory.--Consider now, are you the Wenceslas of the Rue du Doyenne?
12900Homo duplex, said the great Buffon: why not add Res duplex?
12900How are you to write music in the state that you are in?
12900How are you, my dear Hector?"
12900How can I excuse myself?"
12900How can any woman throw you over who is so happy as to be loved by you?"
12900How can you suppose I should ever break that rule of conduct?
12900How could a woman so clever as Valerie fail to ask herself to what end these two representatives of the Church remained with her?
12900How could he forget me when he used to give us as much as three or four thousand- franc notes at once, from time to time?"
12900How could it have occurred to me?"
12900How could she have forgotten him?
12900How could you, so clear- sighted as you are, dream of competing with millions?"
12900How did you get on without me?"
12900How did you send us der bonus?"
12900How do, my jewel!--And the brat?
12900How is he to know?"
12900How is it that you have never made anything in wax for me?
12900How long is it since I-- Lieutenant Cottin-- had a mistress?"
12900How much did the eight pictures fetch?"
12900How much do you want to be comfortable?
12900How much do you want?"
12900How should a man not worship a beautiful and intellectual creature whose soul can soar to such manifestations?
12900How was he now to remember the scene of the morning when his weeping children had knelt at his feet?
12900How would you like to be Madame la Presidente?
12900I am ignorant enough, as you know, of--""_ You!_ One of Servin''s best pupils, and you do n''t know Watteau?"
12900I am killing you, am I?
12900I am murdering you, am I?"
12900I do n''t know why, but I was always being quarreled over by my father and mother--""Did you ever hear of God?"
12900I may do some good, but I must act with caution.--Who is the old man?"
12900I might die; where would you be without me?
12900I only want a hundred francs--""Cibot,--going to die?"
12900I say, Topinard, have you independent means?"
12900I shall say to her,''Look here, little one, would you like to have a friend of--''How old are you?"
12900I shall stay till the last.--I can, I suppose?"
12900I think I have found the man, the possible husband, answering to mamma''s prospectus----""There?--in the Place du Carrousel?--and in one morning?"
12900I will kill her as I would smash a fly--""And how about the gendarmes, my son?"
12900I will run round to- day to all your pupils and tell them that you are ill; is it not so?
12900I would crush that woman like a viper if I could!--What, does she attack my mother''s life, my mother''s honor?"
12900I?
12900Idamore was one of the sort who are bound to find their way into the police courts, and from that to Melun-- and the-- who knows--?"
12900If I can get two thousand francs per annum for you, are you willing?
12900If I had abandoned myself to fury like you, what would have happened?
12900If I were to die to- morrow, what would they find?
12900If any social event can prove the influence of environment, is it not this?
12900If my children were ruining themselves for their own benefit, I would help them out of the scrape; but as for backing your husband, madame?
12900If nobody comes to the funeral, who is to fill the corners?
12900If the Emperor had been here, things would have been very different, would n''t they, sir?
12900If you delay too long, if you give any one a hold against you, I can answer for nothing.--Now, am I to go?"
12900If you mean to be revenged, you must eat the leek, seem to be in despair, and allow her to bully you.--Do you see?"
12900If you work harder, the merchant will pay you more in proportion; but what does the State do for its crowd of obscure and devoted toilers?
12900In short, it was good fun?"
12900In that shop, my child?"
12900In what other country is such help to be found, and generous hearts even in such a garret as this?
12900Is Lisbeth likely to die?
12900Is a little bit of a porter the man to make a woman rich-- a fine woman like you?
12900Is he a Frenchman?"
12900Is he a creditor?"
12900Is he better?"
12900Is he spoiled, too?"
12900Is he well?"
12900Is he with you?
12900Is it always to be like this?"
12900Is it not odd that we should never have known that till to- day, and now find it out by chance?"
12900Is it paid for?"
12900Is it possible?
12900Is it so difficult to design a pin, a little box-- what not, as a keepsake?"
12900Is it this lady?
12900Is not our attachment to life based on its alternations of good and evil?
12900Is not the soldier in time of war brought face to face with spectacles even more dreadful than those we see?
12900Is she better fun than I am?"
12900Is that all you know of life and of business, my beauty?
12900Is that being good to me?"
12900Is that nothing?"
12900Is that the conduct of a weak woman?
12900Is the furniture worth so much?
12900Is this possible?"
12900Is this scorn?
12900Is this your wish?"
12900Is your man a heavy sleeper?"
12900It is a duel, eye to eye; and who has such eyes as a Jew or an Auvergnat?"
12900It is a grind.--Do you know what it is to--?"
12900It is a holograph will, and consequently very easy to upset.--Do you know where our man has put it?"
12900It is not doing good, sir, is it?
12900It was a heartless speech, was it not?
12900Just ask his name-- is it a man or a gentleman?
12900Let us see now, has one of them come here to see you in twenty years?
12900Let us see now-- how is he?"
12900Let us see, now; what have you done that this simple German should be hiding in the room?"
12900Look here, do you want me to tell you what all this comes to?
12900Look here, the family have never settled an allowance on you?"
12900M. Schmucke will send for you, sir, is not that so?
12900Madame Marneffe, Crevel''s woman?
12900Madame Marneffe, of course, was aware of what that pocketbook contained?"
12900Many old men take up with a Josepha, a Jenny Cadine, why should not one be found who is ready to make a fool of himself under legal formalities?
12900Monsieur Grenouville consented to marry her, on condition of her giving us all up, and we agreed--""For a handsome consideration?"
12900No, upon my word, the world is turned upside down; what is the use of making a Revolution?
12900Now that the principal agent is dead, will it not be better to smother up the affair and sentence the storekeeper in default?
12900Now you understand, my good man?"
12900Now, you that are in business, my dear sir, do you advise me to got to a lawyer?"
12900Nucingen would simply laugh at me!--Vauvinet?
12900Oh, great God!--Why did I not take the veil rather than marry?
12900Old Fischer?
12900Old and ugly and poor-- is not this to be thrice old?
12900On my honor, you are horribly ugly, my dear Marneffe----""Do you know that you are very uncivil?"
12900One picture or another, what difference does it make?"
12900Papa Schmucke, do you call that tobacco?
12900Pons exclaimed indignantly,"and sent the best judge and expert in all Paris with you to show you the way?
12900Poor man, he would give his life for you, and do you want to be the death of him?
12900Poulain?"
12900Poulain?"
12900Sabatier, a woman of thirty- six that used to sell slippers at the Palais Royal-- you remember the Galerie at the Palais that they pulled down?"
12900Say, now, has it come to seek out your sublime virtue, priced at two hundred thousand francs?"
12900Schmucke?"
12900Shall I say no more?"
12900Shall we henceforth be sisters?
12900She at once said to herself,"Can it be that Hortense wants my lover?"
12900She looked at herself closely and sadly, wondering to herself:"Am I still handsome?
12900She was so genuinely innocent, that she could say to her mother:"What do they mean, mamma, by calling me a beautiful girl when I am with you?
12900So let us understand each other, Brazil!--I like Brazil, it is a hot country.--What is to become of my niece?"
12900So what is there to fear?"
12900So you are going to marry Cecile?"
12900So--""Are you talking of Mouchieu Ponsh?"
12900Somebody ought to take him away for a change--""How is he to go?"
12900Take a drink and be good--""Then was there no one in the room just now, when I waked?
12900Tell a lie?"
12900The Baron, who was reading the news, held out a Republican paper to his wife, pointing to an article, and saying:"Is there time?"
12900The Prince went up to his old comrade, looked him in the face, and shouted in his ear as he grasped his hand:"Are you a man?"
12900The fat tradesman--""A Crevel?"
12900The man may make money then?"
12900The widow of a Marshal gets at least six thousand francs pension, does n''t she?
12900Then you knew that you were in Monsieur le Maire''s private snuggery?"
12900There were--""Were there no ladies?"
12900This Fraisier can not take large views.--What debt is this, my good man?
12900This perfect union of all her family made Madame Hulot say to herself,"This, after all, is the best kind of happiness, and who can deprive us of it?"
12900To be unfaithful to me?
12900To belong wholly to my husband.--He is a dying man, and what am I doing?
12900To have to work at my age?
12900Two thousand five hundred francs in gold!--a sum with which she had intended to purchase an annuity; and what was there to show for it?
12900Und you are not to pe ein zuper any more--you are to pe de cashier at de teatre--""_ I_?--instead of old Baudrand?"
12900Upon my word, do you know what I should do in your place?
12900Valerie went up to Hulot, and he whispered in her ear:"There is nothing left for us but to fly, but how can we correspond?
12900Vat must I do for dat?"
12900Very well, next Sunday?
12900Vill you not oonderstand that I lof nopody but Bons?"
12900Was it her cousin?"
12900We have our own little tricks, we savages!--Cydalise,"said he, looking at the country girl,"is the animal I need.--How much does she owe?"
12900We saw you at the first performance of_ The Devil''s Betrothed_, and our anxiety became curiosity?"
12900We shall have to dine at home now.--Let us see,"she added, seeing that the"dear puss"wore a piteous face;"must we get rid of him for good?"
12900Well, and are we very good children, I wonder?
12900Well, how are we getting on?"
12900Well, then, how much have you saved?"
12900Well, there is one up there that will die soon, eh?
12900Well, there is something about her quite inexplicable----""What?"
12900Well, why do n''t you float a company?
12900What are you going to do for Adeline?
12900What are your yearly expenses?
12900What can I do?
12900What can I say?
12900What can you mean, sir?
12900What could I do?
12900What could I try to do?
12900What could the world have to say?
12900What do you expect, Crevel?

12900Why, how long since--?"
12900Why, what had I?

12900Within a week, as we say at the courts?"
12900Would it be better to make no profit out of M. Pons''dinner and keep him here at home?
12900Would you like to see me go there?"
12900You are giving forty- six thousand francs for four pictures, are you not?"
12900You are his daughter?"
12900You do not want to blight my later years with bitterness and regret?"
12900You have made me what I am; you have often been stern, you have made me very unhappy----""I?"
12900You here?"
12900You knew him, no doubt?"
12900You know your Moliere?
12900You old bachelors are not all like that--""_ I!_"cried Schmucke, springing to his feet,"vy!--""Come, then, you have none to come after you either, eh?
12900You say you love a woman, you treat her like a duchess, and then you want to degrade her?
12900You see my tears; they are dropping on the paper and soaking it; can you read what I write, dear Hector?
12900You shall have the nomination this morning, and your man shall get his promotion in the Legion of Honor.--How old are you now?"
12900You want to be head- clerk of your room and officer of the Legion of Honor?"
12900You were like my own child to me; did anybody ever see a child revolt against its mother?
12900You will hark back?"
12900You would not believe he could look so different, would you?"
12900Your Valerie, whom you believe to be a saint, is the cause of this miserable separation; can I remain with such a woman?
12900Your needle- woman, madame, is settled in life; she is married--""More or less?"
12900Your son is a pleader; has he never found himself compromised by the client for whom he held a brief?"
12900a thousand crowns for a bronze group?"
12900an annuity of a thousand francs, is that too much, I ask you?
12900an honest woman-- never to mention my name or to say that it was I who betrayed the secret?"
12900and as she met the Brazilian, she whispered:"You are my relation-- or all is at an end between us!--And so you were not wrecked, Henri?"
12900and to my divine friend Schmucke?
12900and why?
12900and yet have you such vices as this?"
12900are you going to move?"
12900are you learning German?"
12900asked Gaudissart,"are you really_ La Belle Ecaillere_ of whom my father used to talk?"
12900asked she,"if I get him to sell them to you, what will you give me?"
12900but vat did der doctor say?"
12900but wicked?
12900by the by, why is he never to be seen nowadays?"
12900can it be true?"
12900de Marville does not altogether answer the description--""And why not?"
12900did anybody ever see the like?
12900did n''t she just give it him hot?--Olympe was perverted, madame?"
12900do you not see that it is his work?"
12900especially when I come to beg for peace, admitting that all the wrong has been on our side?
12900exclaimed Remonencq;"why, what things can be more important?"
12900have you put them in pawn?
12900here he comes; on my honor, he is beginning to be like me!--Good- day, Hulot-- quite well?
12900how could I put him out of the door?"
12900how haf I offended against Hefn?"
12900how simple he is?
12900if my life were to be your life, what would I not do?
12900interrupted the doctor;"what are you thinking about?
12900is this your mother, sir?
12900it is his fault and not mine; why does he delay coming so long?
12900la Presidente, but is not the reward that I expect for my complete devotion a pledge of my success?"
12900now, you would not abuse a woman at your age, great blackguard--""Placard?
12900old Chardin?
12900or shall I not?"
12900perhaps you know something?"
12900said Hulot to himself as he finished this letter,"tears which have blotted out her name.--How is she?"
12900said Lisbeth in an undertone to Hortense,"what can you do?"
12900said Lisbeth,"or merely a farce?"
12900said Madeleine,"a little sooner or a little later-- what difference does it make?
12900said Pons,"what would have become of me if it had not been for you and Schmucke?"
12900said Valerie.--"Come, tell me, my big puss, have_ Rives Gauches_ gone down?"
12900said one,"the musician, you know--""Who can the pall- bearers be?"
12900said she, turning suddenly, like a woman who has just come to some vehement decision,"you are Monsieur le Baron Hulot, I believe?"
12900said the Baroness to herself,"what monster can have had the heart to betray such perfect, such holy innocence?
12900say yourself whether some hindrance has not come in the way every day; some obstacle or business?"
12900she asked of Schmucke,"has this cherub of ours had plenty to drink?
12900she said,"are you come back to us?
12900some poor little bit of a fault or other?"
12900still?"
12900that I look upon you with horror?
12900the Marechale Hulot, the Comtesse de Frozheim?"
12900the man went on,"that she is deceiving you?"
12900then you were courting my fair cousin?"
12900thought Gaudissart, foreseeing the probable end of the unequal contest.--"Listen,"he began,"do you know what you ought to do in this business?"
12900was there not a gentleman here just now, saying that my relatives had sent him?"
12900what do you think of that?"
12900what fault of mine is this, Adeline?"
12900where art thou?"
12900who can have vexed him?
12900who is that gentleman?"
12900who?"
12900why should I deprive you of your illusions?"
12900why--?"
12900with the story of the two hundred thousand francs and his mamma?"
12900you are without most things.--Are you also_ sans culotte_?"
12900you haf a lodging someveres, eh?"
12900you here?
