18252There are some old slabs in the chancel to the Bellenden family, and one on the nave floor bearing an inscription to one Thomas de Leukenor(?).
18252There were also stations at Cheshunt( Ceaster), at Braughing( ad Fines), at Berkhampstead( Durocobrivis?
18252Three important battles were fought in Hertfordshire, during the Wars of the Roses:( 1) At St. Albans on 23rd(?)
17998And what could I do without it, situated as I am between the Russians and the French?
17998But suppose England had not entered the Entente, what then?
17998But the French are your allies-- are they not?
17998Did it contain anything about a place called Limehouse?
17998How were these to have been got?
17998The peace was to be preserved; I give that school full credit for this desire; but preserved on what terms?
17998Why?
10479Does this mean the Jews?
10479Factories arn''t doing much now, are they?
10479For?
10479Things are flat there as well as here are n''t they-- eh?
10479What are they used for?
10479What''s the reason there are so few people here?
10479When shall we three meet again?
10479Where will you sit?
10479Who are the Presbyterians?
10479Who erected the building?
10479Why?
10479Why?
10479At the end somebody said,"Now, will some of the women pray?"
10479Did you ever, gentle reader, see the"Book of Mormon?"
10479He has a perfect right to venerate Mr. Tindall, and if he is a little fashionable, what of that?--isn''t it fashionable to be fashionable?
10479He is rather too impervious and too oracular; but then who would not be if they had the chance?
10479He said one Sunday"None of you are ower much to be trusted-- none of us are ower good, are we?
10479How many people do you think there were in them?
10479How would it be if the manuscript could not be found?
10479It would be wrong to say that lucre is at the bottom of every parsonic change; but it is at the foundation of the great majority-- eh?
10479Pews may be owned, seats may be taken, few sittings may be to let, but where are the worshippers?
10479Standing in a narrow pulpit for a length of time must necessarily be fatiguing to him; but why ca n''t things be made easy?
10479The thin woman then looked forward at the red- haired youth and in a clear voice said"Bin round there yet-- eh?"
10479We could n''t help admiring the preacher''s eloquence; and a man who sat near us, and at the finish said,"Who is that fellow?"
10479What could be more particular than Particular Baptism?
10479What more could you desire?
10479Who bids?
10479Why ca n''t a few shrubs and flowers be planted in it?
10479Why is not the ground trimmed up and made decent?
14742Not afford it?
14742After which there was much contention, and the whole city rose and would have torn the Archbishop into small pieces, shouting,"Where is this ruffian?
14742And how have we treated the buildings which his genius devised for us?
14742And what became of the contents of these churches?
14742And why was this relic of the town''s former greatness to be pulled down?
14742Are these treasures safe?
14742As Mr. Allan Fea says:"When an old landmark disappears, who does not feel a pang of regret at parting with something which linked us with the past?
14742Boniface lost his temper, struck the sub- prior, saying,"Indeed, doth it become you English traitors so to answer me?"
14742But did they at cross- roads in any way serve the purpose of the modern sign- post?
14742But what effect had the sight of the infliction of cruel punishments upon those who took part in them or witnessed them?
14742Did they act as deterrents to vice?
14742Do we not see there the identical room in which good Queen Bess is said to have reposed on the occasion of her visit to the city in 1578?
14742Gough says that a certain Rose( Dunston?)
14742How did it come to be there?
14742How does the sea work this?
14742How many have failed to obtain their rights and just claims through the gross neglect of the keepers or custodians of parochial documents?
14742How were these strong walls ever taken in the days before gunpowder was extensively used or cannon discharged their devastating shells?
14742Is this a unique example?
14742It is true that Sir William was born ten years after the last of the crusades had ended; but what does that matter?
14742Or are they the work of the Carmelite, or White, Friars?
14742Or was it a niche containing a Calvary, or some figure?
14742This story reminds one of a certain road in Berks and Bucks, the milestones along which record the distance between Hatfield and Bath?
14742Were these planted by the White Cross Knights( the Knights of Malta, or of S. John of Jerusalem)?
14742What did the early restorers do?
14742What happened?
14742What prospects from the watch- tower high Gleam gradual on the warder''s eye?
14742What was its use?
14742What were the origin and use of these wayside crosses?
14742When an old building is hopelessly dilapidated, what methods can be devised for its restoration and preservation?
14742Who has not sung in praise of inns?
14742Who would have thought that this decayed harbour ranked fourth among the ports of the kingdom?
14742Why Hatfield?
14742With what result?
14742[ 50] Act of Parliament, 1405. Who were the culprits who thus suffered?
14742and what purpose did it serve?
14742and why were so many of them, especially at cross- roads, known as''The White Cross''?
15469Absence, to us, is equally painful: but, if I had either stayed at home, or neglected my duty abroad, would not my Emma have blushed for me?
15469Are these people mad; or, do they take me for quite a fool?
15469But, what comfort could I have had, for two whole days, at Deal?
15469Could even the oldest diplomatic character be drier?
15469Did the Duke, or any of them, give him a house_ then_?
15469Do n''t they feel his coming?
15469Do you ever see Castelcicala?
15469Does he care for me?
15469Has Mrs. Cadogan got my Peer''s robe?
15469Have we a nice church at Merton?
15469Have you not Merton?
15469I know but one; for, who can be like my Emma?
15469I know, he likes to be with you: but, shall he have that felicity, and_ he_ deprive me of it?
15469In short, she adores you; but, who does not?
15469Is it so very uncommon for such near relations to have some similitude?
15469Is my brother tired of Canterbury?
15469Is your head man a good person, and true to our interest?
15469Pray, have you got any picture from Mrs. Head''s?
15469What can I say more?
15469What can Reverend Sir want to be made a Doctor for?
15469What can be the use of keeping me here?
15469What do you think?
15469What has she to do with your love?
15469What, have your picture, and not hang it up?
15469What, leave my dearest friends, to dine with a minister?
15469Why did not the Duke assist Sir William, when he wanted his assistance?
15469Why not have the pictures from Davison''s, and those from Dodd''s; especially, my father''s, and Davison''s?
15469Why should he not be like him?
15469Why should he?
15469Why should it?
15469You ask me, Do you do right to give Charlotte things?
15469You ask me, my dear friend, if I am going on more expeditions?
15469You ask me, what Troubridge wrote me?
15469You have not lost the directions for unfolding them; nor the measure, that I may have frames made for them?
15469You say, my Dearest Friend, why do n''t I put my Chief forward?
15469but, what shall I do with him?
15469what can be the matter with him?
13968*****_ From the same, 29th[ 7th?]
13968--Has it, my Lords?
13968And how did it break out?
13968But are they less criminal, less rebellious against the Divine Majesty?
13968But do we not know how seals are obtained in that country?
13968But what do you think they did?
13968But when the old man, frightened out of his wits, asked,"What is it he has bid for me?"
13968Do we not know how those princes are imposed upon?
13968Do we not know the subjection and thraldom in which they are held, and that they are obliged to return thanks for the sufferings which they have felt?
13968For what else does a magistrate exist?
13968How, then, is it possible for me to exist?
13968I have no means; for I have not a subsistence.--How long shall I dwell upon my misfortunes?"
13968I said unto myself,''What fidelity have they observed to their liege lord?
13968It was in the year 1774[ 1773?]
13968That, upon his recall of the said Middleton, he, in his instructions to the Resident Bristow, dated 23d of October, 1781[ 1782?
13968What more can I say?
13968What more can I say?"
13968Who can complain, or dares to accuse?
13968Why?
13968Will he fly to the Mahomedan law?
13968Will he fly to the Sophis, to the laws of Persia, or to the practice of those monarchs?
13968Will he fly to the high magistracy of Asia to defend taking of presents?
13968Will your Lordships submit to hear the corrupt practices of mankind made the principles of government?
13968are they less hateful to man, whose opinions they ought to cultivate as far as they are just?
13968what fidelity will they show unto me?''
13157And what are you learning there?
1315731 Killing and maiming cattle 83 It may be asked, why did not the Ulster members call the attention of Parliament to this state of things?
13157And even granting for the sake of argument that this is wrong, is it fair to call it bribery?
13157And if they do-- what then?
13157And would a Roman Catholic Parliament and nation care to remain subject to a King of England whose title depended on his being a Protestant?
13157But the question is, was Wolfe Tone right when he said that these were the only two possibilities; or is there a third one, and if so, what?
13157But what was the result?
13157Can Irish Protestants be accused of bigotry when they contend that these writers mean what they say?
13157Can it be wondered that Elizabeth conceived the idea of imitating her sister''s policy and forming a"plantation"in the North?
13157If other countries acted in a similar manner, how could the grievances of bygone centuries ever be forgotten?
13157If that is so, what right has one man to a large farm when there are hundreds of others in a neighbouring town who have no land at all?
13157In fact, how can a law be a law unless it is enforced?
13157It may be asked, why did the Irish Parliament do nothing to stay this national ruin?
13157Might not the mass of the people, whose native customs had been well nigh crushed out by civil wars, be persuaded to_ adopt_ the law of England?
13157Now, if compensation is bribery, who was bribed?
13157Proofreaders IS ULSTER RIGHT?
13157The simple answer is, How could they do so?
13157What influence for good could such a church have had upon the mass of the people?
13157What is the use of having new land laws?
13157What those means were, was explained by Gladstone himself:--"What is meant by boycotting?
13157What would be said in England if a Tory landlord evicted a cottager for working for a Radical farmer?
11917St. Peter, you say, holds the keys of heaven and hell?
11917Well, how do you feel about Home Rule now that it seems to be really coming?
11917Who,he cries with a burst of enthusiasm,"first penetrated into the heart of the enemy''s country?
11917A beginning, it may be asked, of what?
11917After one such resounding success, why, it was asked, not extend so evident a blessing to the rest of Ireland?
11917Against whom are the shafts of malice chiefly directed?
11917And Ireland?
11917And afterwards?
11917And now, it will perhaps be asked, what is one in sober seriousness to say to all this?
11917Columba?"
11917Could man or monarch do more?
11917Even Edmund Burke-- the life- long and passionate friend of Ireland-- cried out in alarm"Will no one speak to that madman?
11917Had it been intentionally or accidentally excluded?
11917How much more then to the English Protestants of that day?
11917How was it affected by this change of rulers?
11917Practically, however?
11917Was James to remain in Ireland and to be an Irish king?
11917What Irishman does not feel proud that he lived in the days of Grattan?
11917What follows?
11917What is its future destined to be?
11917Who did not remember him in the days of its burnings, wastings, and murders?"
11917Who has not turned to him for comfort from the false friends and open enemies of Ireland?
11917Who have kept it in submission?
11917Who struck most terror into the enemy?
11917Why was a harbinger of peace sent if only to be immediately recalled?
11917Will it vanish away, will it pass into new phases, or will some form of it eventually receive the sanction of the nation?
11917Will no one stop that madman Grattan?"
11917Yet as regards Ireland itself what was the result?
11917Yet which of these, with the doubtful exception of the last, can be said to have yet received anything like a fair meed of appreciation?
11917exclaims Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, indignantly, can more unworthy statement be conceived?
11917or was he merely to use Ireland as a stepping- stone to England?
17929How would you like,he said to one of his officers,"to see Roman Catholic chaplains on board our ships of war?"
17929What friend?
17929And do we not even outnumber them at every one of the ports we have blockaded?
17929Are we not able to cope anywhere with any force the enemy dares to send out against us?
17929But he who goes forth to fight the battles of another State, what honour can victory itself afford to him?
17929But when some of the ringleaders declared with oaths that they_ would_ have a boat, and would take one, he quietly said,"You will, will you?"
17929Do you know that you may be answerable for every enemy you kill?
17929Have we not all the enemy''s ports blockaded from Toulon to Flushing?
17929He replied,"I do not think it necessary; she will do very well, and what would become of the convoy if we meet an enemy?"
17929The_ Queen Charlotte_ immediately telegraphed to the fleet,"Are you ready?"
17929Will you not allow me a few days-- a little time, to make my peace with God?"
17929do not you know me?"
17929gentlemen,"he exclaimed,"hang me directly?
17929or how shall he be excused, if he attack the allies of his own country, whom, as such, he is bound on his allegiance to respect?
17778And General French?
17778Are you Mrs. Despard, General French''s sister?
17778Can you tell me where the General is?
17778General French? 17778 How, I ask, can the Cavalry perform its rôle in war until the enemy''s Cavalry is defeated and paralysed?
17778Who is this General French?
17778But do they appeal to the private?
17778But suppose anything happened to Carleton?
17778For what did it mean?
17778Had he not seen it thirty years ago on an Egyptian desert, and practised its every form time and again on the African veldt?
17778How does he manage to be the idol of his men?
17778How is the mounted infantryman, lacking the_ elan_ and spirit of the cavalryman, to meet the situation?
17778How often did one read"General French expressed himself as''fairly''well pleased with what he saw"?
17778How then does he regard war?
17778Or suppose that the main action was lost?
17778Pointing to French, he asked his Colonel,"Of what value is that man?"
17778Quite early in the campaign this inscription was found on the wall of a Boer farm house:"Why are we bound to win?
17778What wonder if men called him"French the lucky?"
17778Who so fit to materialise reforms as the man who had conceived them?
17778Who was to carry out all these drastic alterations?
17778Who was to write it?
12961Am I convicted on the evidence of Corydon, who swears that I belonged to the Fenian Brotherhood in 1863?
12961Am I to understand that I have not liberty to address the court as to why sentence should not be pronounced upon me?
12961And who would now fill his place for them, even as bread- winner?
12961But what were they to do?
12961But why could I not live here?
12961COSTELLO-- Would you allow me to state they enticed me from my allegiance to England; therefore she( America) is guilty of high treason?
12961Can I speak for the sake of having an audience here to listen to me?
12961Can every man in this court house lay his hand on his heart and say the same?
12961Could it be a dream, or was this a reality?
12961Do I speak for the satisfaction of hearing my own feeble voice?
12961Do I understand you to refuse me that privilege?
12961Does it do me any good to make these statements?
12961Does that prove that I belonged to it in 1867?
12961Every generation of our countrymen has suffered; and where is the Irish heart could stand by unmoved?
12961For why?
12961HALPIN-- Am I entitled to get the letter to have it destroyed, or is Price to have it, to do with it as he pleases?
12961Had men lived to see the day when such a deed could be done?
12961Have I not a right to complain that I should be consigned to a dungeon for life in consequence of a trumped- up case?
12961I ask you, gentlemen, us reasonable men, if there be a shadow of a case against me?
12961In God''s name-- if I may mention His holy name without sufficient reasons-- what affection should I have for England?
12961Is there one single overt act proved against me; or have I violated any law for the violation of which I can be made amenable in this court?
12961PRISONER-- What can I speak on?
12961PRISONER-- What position do I stand in now, my lord?
12961The blood of Tone, Fitzgerald, Emmett, and others has been shed-- how much good has it done the tyrant and the robber?
12961Think you, my lords, that I would injure a living being-- that I would, of my own free accord, willingly touch a hair upon the head of any man?
12961To what can I speak, if not to something connected with my case?
12961Was it only_ reporters_ whose judgment could set aside the verdict of sworn jurors, endorsed by ermined judges?
12961Was it to be admitted that newspaper reporters could be right in a case so awful, where twelve sworn jurors and two judges were wrong?
12961Was not our Saviour sold for money, and His life sworn away by false witnesses?
12961What a frightful imputation would public admission of that fact cast upon the twelve sworn jurors-- upon the two judges?
12961What is the principle of that?
12961What position do I stand in now?
12961What was most needed to give force and power to the insurrectionary uprising in Ireland?
12961What was the government to do?
12961What was to be done?
12961When the question was put, what was their answer?
12961Where were the men who have stood in the dock-- Burke, Emmett, and others, who have stood in the dock in defence of their country?
12961Why do I make these assertions?
12961Why should I fear to die, innocent as I am of the charge which a prejudiced jury, assisted by perjured witnesses, found me guilty of?
10693And what should be done if the Queen only may be with child?
10693And what would be the situation of the country if the King should die, leaving a minor Queen?
10693Asked the use of it?
10693Asks if another march to Paris would be possible?
10693But is there any hope that the French Government will venture to give us her_ appui_?
10693Can any country be tranquil in which resident gentlemen can do such things?
10693Could we, as mediators, propose to Turkey to cede Attica, Negropont, and other possessions she now holds?
10693Do not you mean to recall Lord William?''
10693Had I talked with the Chairs about it?
10693He asked what I meant to do with Elphinstone?
10693He asked whether they were distinctly to understand that the Cabinet had decided upon the termination of the monopoly?
10693He asked whom we proposed sending in his place?
10693He can afford to pay something to the State, and why should he not?
10693He said,''Well, what is your business?''
10693He says the question is,''Shall we permit the ruin of the Turkish Empire?''
10693How in the event of the birth of a child the_ de facto_ Sovereign is to be put aside?
10693I doubt it, and if we pass a law to which the colonies are adverse, which they will regard as being_ no law_, how are we to execute it?
10693I mentioned Salisbury''s motion for a Committee which is to be made on Monday next, and Lord Bathurst said''Shall we be alive then?''
10693I think it is clear that the invasion of India could not be attempted till the third year; but when should we begin to take precautions?
10693Peel asked whether he presumed to call him a parasite?
10693Sir A. asked if we would see Knighton?
10693Soon afterwards, Sir W. Waller only being in the room, he suddenly put his hand to his breast, and said,''Good God, what is the matter?
10693The Chief Justices will be asked whether, supposing the Queen to be pregnant at the death of the King, the next living heir would succeed?
10693The Duke asked Hardinge what he thought as to taking Huskisson and Palmerston back again?
10693The Governor of Bombay ought to be an Indian, but who is there?
10693The King asked what sort of a man Lord Grey was?
10693The King desired me to sit down, and asked me whether I had any expectation of the division of last night?
10693The King said,''You heard what I said to the East India Company yesterday?''
10693The question is, Shall the masters resist?
10693The question was what could be done with him?
10693This is death?''
10693We asked whether the permanent occupation of Constantinople by Russia was to be submitted to?
10693Where would they put me?
10693Who could we get to replace him?
10693Why adhere to him?''
10693_ July 7._ At quarter to six a messenger arrived from the Duke, to whom I sent yesterday my letter to Lord W. asking if I should send it?
10693and would we willingly bring the frontiers of the Greek state into contact with our Ionian Islands?
19115BARRACKS(?
19115Barracks?
19115Does not a form Deorwenta occur( though Mr. Walker has missed it) to show that the two names interacted?
19115Latrines?
19115Stabling(?))]
19115The question is, to what date do they refer?
19115What fort?
19115What part of the ritual and what rites of Diana?
19115Within it were five various rows of rooms mostly 15 feet square, with drains; some complicated masonry(?
19115Work- rooms?
1949* Why will ye still inquire, adding iniquity?
1949Britain has rulers, and she has watchmen: why dost thou incline thyself thus uselessly to prate?"
1949But why should I say more?
13109Sir,--Will you be good enough to inform me whether the statement I give below is correct? 13109 Well, have not rents in England and Scotland been reduced quite as much, nay, more, than Irish rents since 1881?
13109Again an important extract:--"This is Mr. Parnell''s language at Nottingham, but would he venture to use the same arguments in this country?
13109And I know, too, that even a blackberry wine industry will not be quite safe till we have Home Rule; but is not that coming fast?"
13109And has not the importation of dead meat from America, Australia, or New Zealand had something to do with it?
13109And how could a couple of delicate ladies, say, till the ground with their own hands?
13109And what power over the fortunes of others can be given to men who boycott a railway for political spite?
13109Are our sympathies to be confined wholly to one class, and are the sorrows and the wrongs done to another not to count?
13109Are these the minds to govern a great and honest country?]
13109Besides, who would venture to take the vacant land?
13109Can he give counter figures to those quoted above?
13109Do the leaders of any movement whatsoever give a thought to the individual lives sacrificed to the success of the cause?
13109Does that( if true) get over the dishonesty of selling for £ 600 a year what was really worth only 500?
13109Furthermore, whose hands among the prominent leaders are free from the reflected stain of blood- money?
13109How long is this farce to continue?
13109Is this according to the law of elemental justice?
13109These assertions are facts to which names and amounts can be given; and that question,_ Cui bono_?
13109Who knows?
13109Why should not some practical native, go over from home and see how it is all done?
13109Will anybody deny that the Irish landlords are open to this great accusation and indictment?
13109With such a formidable organisation as this, what individual would have the courage to stand out for abstract justice to a landlord?
15074After this, who will trust the gratitude of a Common- wealth?
15074And amongst them all, what will become of those fine Speculative Wits, who drew the Plan of this new Government, and who overthrew the old?
15074And if he must justifie his own proceedings to their whole Body, how can he do it but by blaming their Representatives?
15074And was not his fortune necessitous enough at all times, to catch at an impunity, which was baited with Rewards to bribe him?
15074And where are then the principles of Vertue, Honour and Religion, which they would persuade the World, have animated their endeavours for the publick?
15074But I would ask him in the first place, if an Appeal be to be made, to whom can the King Appeal, but to his People?
15074But since there have been, how could the King complain more modestly, or in terms more expressing Grief, than Indignation?
15074But what if he thinks not their Party fit to be intrusted, least they should employ it against his Person?
15074But who shall Judge when it shall be proper to put an end to such a Parliament?
15074Did his Majesty stifle the Plot when he offered them, or did they refuse to sound the depth of it, when they would not touch upon them?
15074Had he not the benefit of so many Proclamations, to have come in before, if he then knew any thing worth discovery?
15074How comes it to pass that our Author shuffles the two French Dutchesses together?
15074Is he grown so purblind, that he can not distinguish Friends from Foes?
15074Is she so quickly become an old acquaintance, that none of the politick assignations at her Lodgings are remembred?
15074Now whose will be the fault in common reason, if the Allyances be not supported, and_ Tangier_ not relieved?
15074Or why, after the execution of the Lord_ Stafford_, did the House of Commons stop at the other Lords, and not proceed to try them in their turns?
15074T. Hanmer''s(?)
15074What then would become of our ancient Privilege to be tryed_ per pares_?
15074What were they before they were thus Angry?
15074and incroaching into Soveraignty and Arbitrary Power themselves, while they seem''d to fear it from the King?
15074and that the Exclusion must first pass?
15074of which the one is an_ Italian_, the other a_ French_ Woman, and an_ English_ Dutchess?
15074or more truly was it ever intended to be urged?
15074or that his House of Commons should Fetter him beyond any of his Predecessors?
15074or what way is left him to obviate the causes of such complaints for the future, but this gentle admonishment for what is past?
15074or what would they be, could they make so firm an Interest in Court, that they might venture themselves in that bottom?
15074or who counsel''d the dissolution of the Tripple League?
15074who gave the rise to the present greatness of the_ French_?
15830Ca n''t I do what I please with my own barn door? 15830 Do you hear that?
15830How did you find out my name and address,asked Mr. Green?
15830Is she a delegate: are all the children delegates?
15830Is this not one of the boats to take over the delegates?
15830What did Mr. Green say when he found that I had fled?
15830What is that lady going to do with all these children?
15830What street is this?
15830Yes, but I saw her go in, and you shut the door behind her, and if she was not in the barn, what did you nail the door for?
15830''However much I may resemble your sister, you are aware that I am not her, and why take so much interest in one whom you never saw before?''
15830''Why should you wish to set_ me_ free?''
15830''Would you rather remain with your present mistress, than be free?''
15830An English gentleman near me said to his friend,"I ca n''t understand a word of what he says, but is it not good?"
15830And who is more capable of understanding the human heart than the poet?
15830Are you married?"
15830As soon as Mr. Green had so far recovered as to be able to speak, he said,"Where am I, and what does this mean?"
15830Bank[** typo?
15830Brown?"
15830But how is it with the American Slave?
15830But you will ask, what has Thomas Carlyle to do with a visit to the Crystal Palace?
15830How resolve to do so?
15830Is this the right train?"
15830Long after I had quitted the presence of the poet, the following lines of his were ringing in my ears:--"Wanderer, whither dost thou roam?
15830May be typo?
15830The lady by my side, and who had called my attention to the group, asked if I could tell what country this odd- looking gentleman was from?
15830Thou and thy friend must be somewhat fatigued by this time, wo nt thou go in and take a little dinner with me?"
15830To what region far away?
15830Wanderer, whither would''st thou roam?
15830What can present a more picturesque view, than two vessels at sea on a moonlight night, and within a few rods of each other?
15830Where is my husband?
15830Where is my luggage?
15830Where on earth is a man without money more destitute?
15830Who ever had a sounder taste, a more exact intellect than Dante?
15830Who that thinks of these amazing changes can doubt of the progress that has been made?
15830Who''s got my boy?
15830[** Erratum: Whittier?]
15830are these your pranks, To murder men and give God thanks?
15830or who has ever tuned his harp more in favour of Freedom, than our own Whittier?
14342''Has the Church,''asks Father Shinnors,''increased her membership in the ratio that the population of the United States has increased?
14342( 414):--"But it wo n''t weaken it, or you would not be here?"
14342( 415):--"Is there any sense in which it wo n''t?"
14342( 416):--"But it is in the hope that it will strengthen your own Church that you propose it?"
14342Are they, I would ask, satisfied with that character?
14342But it may not be irrelevant to note that M. Desmolins, who, in his remarkable book,_ A quoi tient la superiorità © des Anglo- saxons_?
14342But what do they represent?
14342Can it be that to the Irish mind politics are, what Bulwer Lytton declared love to be,"the business of the idle, and the idleness of the busy"?
14342Could we not learn something from a study of what our people were doing abroad?
14342Could we not-- Unionists and Nationalists alike-- do something towards material progress without abandoning our ideals?
14342Had they business capacity?
14342Had they commercial experience or business education?
14342Had we not better look around and see how other countries with more or less analogous conditions fared?
14342How could they trust the Committee they were asked to elect from amongst themselves to expend their money and conduct their business?
14342If business, why was it not self- supporting?
14342Influences of Religion in Ireland What is Toleration?
14342It was naturally asked-- did Irish farmers possess the qualities out of which co- operators are made?
14342Now, of what do the forces opposed to Home Rule consist?
14342Protestantism in Irish Life Roman Catholicism and Economics Power of the Roman Catholic Clergy Has it been Abused?
14342Ruthlessly deprived of education, are they to be blamed if they did not use the newly acquired facilities to the best advantage?
14342The Irish had the man, what mattered the principles?
14342The North has prospered under the Act of Union-- why should it be ready to enter upon a new''variety of untried being''?
14342The promoters-- they were not putting anything into the scheme-- how much did they intend to take out?
14342What are your qualifications as a cook any way?''
14342What shall I do?''
14342Why did you give up riding and take to cooking?
14342Why would n''t I?"
14342Why would n''t she?
14342[ 8] Hence the evergreen query,''What shall we do with our boys?''
14342he replied,''why, do n''t you know I''ve got varicose veins?''
19434Was there ever such an unmitigated mistake in any Cabinet as that man? 19434 Bruce?
19434Do you ever see his name even so much as mentioned in Parliamentary debates?
19434Has the Central Working Men''s Club lost its cunning?
19434What great measures has he succeeded in passing?
19434What would Mr. Strahan or Mr. Macmillan not give to have the command of such a host?
19434When has he ever made any brilliant speeches?
19434Who would ever dream of finding a foundry on the Isis, or a factory on the Cam?
19434Why has the experiment not been repeated?
1972What is your name?
1972Who,said the boy,"instructed you to do this?"
1972Cair gurcoc( Anglesey?).
1972For what wise man will resist the wholesome counsel of God?
1972The boy, going on with his questions, asked the wise men what was in it?
1972Then St. Germanus, addressing him, said"Dost thou believe in the Holy Trinity?"
1972Then the boy said to the king,"Why have your servants brought me hither?"
1972Upon this, the messengers diligently inquired of the mother and the other boys, whether he had had a father?
1972Vortigern inquired of his wise men the cause of this opposition to his undertaking, and of so much useless expense of labour?
1972asked the king;"I am called Ambrose( in British Embresguletic),"returned the boy; and in answer to the king''s question,"What is your origin?"
17300For a moment,writes B.-P.,"the thought crosses one''s mind, shall we stop to fire or go for them?
17300May it not be that our toys are the various media adapted to individual tastes through which men may know their God? 17300 What on earth made you go and get drunk?"
17300And what of his enthusiasm?
17300And, more important question, how can men with such an officer ever grow enthusiastic about soldiering, or even content with their lot?
17300Asked,"Do you know why so- and- so, and so- and- so?"
17300But did they waver or turn back?
17300But how few of the people we love to read about in the airy realm of fiction, or the still airier realm of history, really possess our hearts?
17300Could a Briton do more?
17300Granted the excitement of a fast burst over a grass country, and that you are well carried by your horse, the end-- what is it?
17300Has he a chance, bar his cunning, of baffling his pursuers?
17300How could a man feel unhappy with the whole of his wardrobe packed away in one wallet of the saddle, and his larder in the other?
17300If there is interest in Baden- Powell''s score as a schoolboy- marksman, how much greater interest should there be in Baden- Powell''s hit as orator?
17300If, then, it was the prospect of thus pleasing you that sustained me in my task, to whom else can I more fittingly inscribe the fruits of my labour?
17300Now, how can an officer who soldiers in this dull, stupid fashion ever gain the affection of his men?
17300One dog killed"?
17300Remember him?
17300Stories about him?
17300Then where the----_ am_ I to smoke?"
17300To the question,"How long can you hold out?"
17300Touching B.-P. upon the shoulder with his white cotton glove, the constable demanded, in a deep voice,"Arnd, whaät''s the matter wi''you, eh?"
17300What was it that struck his attention most about the tempting work of searching Prempeh''s palace for treasure?
17300When men opened their newspapers in the railway carriage it was with the remark,"How''s old B.-P. getting along?"
17300Who but a general favourite could have played the following part?
17300Will you believe it, that the commonest way of spending the afternoon in cavalry regiments is by going to bed?
17300at what time do rats run about?"
17300exclaimed the volunteer soldier,"not smoke on sentry?

20967Gentlemen,( says he,) what are ye doing?
1913051 WHAT WAS STONEHENGE?
19130And whence came this powerful dominant race?
19130But what have Saracens to do with Wiltshire?
19130How came they in their present position?
19130Is there anything else to see?
19130Raising the Foreign Stones 49 WHEN WAS STONEHENGE ERECTED?
19130THE BUILDING OF STONEHENGE The question is often asked,"How did they build Stonehenge?"
19130The foremost question will surely be"How shall I get to Stonehenge?"
19130The question naturally arises how were they worked?
19130There are many millstones and gateposts in Wiltshire, but where is there one which corresponds in any way to the upright Foreign Stones at Stonehenge?
19130WHAT WAS STONEHENGE?
19130WHEN WAS STONEHENGE ERECTED?
19130Were they tall or short, dark or fair?
19130What are these objects?
19130What manner of man was it who went armed with the bronze dagger and wore the ornaments above described?
19130Where have the stones come from?
19130_ Glanconitic Sandstone_( possibly Upper Greensand?
19130whence the so- called foreign stones were obtained?
15306Does that make you feel safe?
15306Even with the new rifle?
15306How came it, man of straw, that in Armageddon there was none greater than you?
15306Let''s see,he asked;"Presbyterian?--how do you spell it?"
15306What does it matter,he exclaimed impatiently,"what we pay those boys as long as we win the war?"
15306After a victory so tremendous, was there any demand on the generosity of men''s souls which would not gladly have been granted?
15306And why were Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. Winston Churchill silent?
15306And yet who does not feel the greatness of Napoleon?--and who does not suspect the shallowness of Mr. Lloyd George?
15306But how is it that this politician has attained even to such super- prominence?
15306But what happens?
15306Did he not strike a death blow at Germany when he secured, with a suddenness which ruined his rivals in the field, the wool- clip of the world?
15306Does it matter if they shoot you, or hang you, or send you to the Tower, so long as England is saved?"
15306Has he not been an honest man at the head of a department where dishonesty had its chief opportunity?
15306How many men who entered the House of Commons with no ideas at all have been taken to the friendly bosom of that assembly?
15306How was it that his greatness, that is to say his greatness of personality, made so pitiable an end?
15306I should say that he has only one question to ask of fate before he strips for a fight-- is this thing going to be Success or Failure?
15306If he had had his way with the War Office could Germany have been stopped from reaching Paris and seizing the Channel ports?
15306If men would ask themselves, before they rush out to seek her, What is Pleasure?
15306Is it too late for him to acquire strength of character?
15306Is there not a danger that we may fall into the American position, and have our great men in commerce and our second- rate men in politics?
15306Is there one man in these islands who thought for a moment that the overplus of stores would fetch a sum of £ 800,000,000?
15306Let each man ask himself, Is my direction worthy of man''s past and hopeful for his future?
15306Moreover, if he had had his way, could he himself have hoped to escape hanging on a lamp- post?
15306Now, do you feel safe?"
15306Suppose war did not come after all, how were those millions to be met?
15306Then, in 1896 he said to himself,"Why should n''t steam be used in the coasting trade?"
15306Was there ever a greater opportunity in statesmanship?
15306What can become of such a movement save eventual corruption?
15306What did he do?
15306What did it matter what the war cost so long as victory was won?
15306What has been Lord Inverforth''s reward from the public?
15306What power in the world is greater, controlled by moral principle?
15306What power so dangerous, when moral earnestness ceases to inspire the feelings?
15306What was lacking that this indubitable greatness should have been so easily brayed in the mortar of politics?
15306What''s the good of something you ca n''t see?"
15306Whenever he was in conflict with Socialists he would say to them,"Why do n''t you buy me out and run the mines yourselves?
15306Where was the new world, then?
15306While others are crying,"How shall we save ourselves?"
15306Why did he not speak when the hounds were in full cry?
15306Why was Mr. Asquith silent?
15306Why was Sir Edward Grey silent?
15306Why was he silent?
15306With a twinkle in his eyes, and in a soft inquiring voice,"Have you ever tried to buy glycerine from him?"
15306exclaimed Mr. H.,"good heavens, I was n''t joking; how do I know that to- morrow he will not be the editor of the_ Daily Mail_?"
15306he exclaimed;"but is n''t he the man who is being attacked by the newspapers?"
18254Will you give me your hands upon it as men of honour?
18254Will you two,then asked the King,"say you have still attachment to me?"
18254And though I had gone away with some more than ordinary, who can blame me when designs of murdering me was made appear?
18254And, if any of them did me the favour to come along with me, must that be called being in arms?
18254Borrowing the words of Samuel,"What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?"
18254But are the offences which can be fairly laid to Claverhouse''s account of such a kind?
18254But is this unswerving standard possible as a gauge of human actions?
18254Hæcne mihi meriti persolvis præmia tanti?
18254The Bishops?
18254Was this strong Samson, men asked, to fall a prey at last to a Whiggish Delilah?
18254We were ordered to see how such commissions had been[ drawn?]
18254What, he asked, did Lochiel advise?
18254When they had got there the King asked them, how came they still to be with him when all the world had forsaken him for the Prince of Orange?
18254Who then shall be safe?
18821Do n''t you wish you may get it?
18821Why not?
18821All in a moment the thought arose--"Why not borrow the park and give a pic- nic for the hospital?"
18821And who, think ye, gentle readers, is now Editor of_ The Journal_?
18821He came to me after the cloth was cleared, and said,"Did n''t I see you at Vince''s Chapel last night?"
18821I ask the landlord-- for such the man is-- if there are any relics of Cobbett remaining in the house?
18821In an instant came the crushing retort from Edmonds,"Ho, you ham, his you?"
18821In some confusion, Edmonds turned round, and, his mind being somewhat uncollected, he asked,"What say you, Mr. Foreman, are you guilty or not guilty?"
18821Is there really anything antithetic or antagonistic in poverty and honesty?
18821Jones?"
18821M.?"
18821Pay?
18821Smith?"
18821Still Gillott persevered, and at length startled the artist by asking,"What''ll you take for the lot in this room?"
18821The King dead?
18821This seemed to amuse him, and he asked,"Well, what is it?"
18821Why should not the Muntzes become a family of equal position in England?
18821Will you call again in an hour?"
18821_ Quid rides?_"Bond Street, July 2, 1823."
14443Ah, but--interrupted the incautious Wolmer--"could they not send envoys who were unpaid?"
14443Ah, but,said Mr. Morley,"did you not"--meaning Mr. Goschen--"did you not yourself attack Lord Salisbury for that very speech?"
14443Who is the third- rate politician?
14443And first, why is it that so few members of the House of Commons can pronounce that word correctly?
14443And now the moment of Nemesis and triumph has come, and is he going to fall below the level of the great hour?
14443And what support had Lord Spencer against all these foes-- before him, around him-- on all sides of him?
14443And yet who can not listen to him for ten minutes without a sense of a great mind-- and what to me is better, a fine character behind it all?
14443But still, if there be a majority, what is it going to be?--disastrously near defeat, or near enough to moral strength as to mean nothing?
14443But when he sits down, is there any human being that feels a bit the wiser or the better for what he has said?
14443Can he stand the strain?--will he break down from sheer physical fatigue and the exhaustion of long waiting?
14443Do you suppose that every member of the Liberal party loves Mr. Asquith, and is delighted when he displays his great talents?
14443For instance, he puts the question to Lord Wolmer, if he seriously means that the Irish Legislature is not to have the right to petition?
14443How was Mr. Gladstone going to make a speech which would fulfil those extremely diverse purposes?
14443I suppose I shall be considered very fantastic-- but do you know what I thought of at that very moment?
14443In favour of 103 members?
14443Mr. Russell declared that he heard the phrase across the floor,"What the devil are you saying?"
14443Or was it that he had had to sit for several hours the day before at a Cabinet Council?
14443The currency-- who cares about the currency now?
14443Then there was the United States; what was there to prevent the Irish Executive from sending an envoy to the United States?
14443They might be repentant sinners, but who so great a prodigal as the member for Birmingham?
14443This was all clear enough; but what about the position of all the other parties in the House?
14443Was Jimmy put down?
14443What constitutes the greatest of all Parliamentary triumphs?
14443What have the Government to fear in this matter?
14443What will it say?
14443Where be now the hysterics about private members and simple issues and small questions?
14443Who but he could fail to have noticed the contrast, and noticing, who but he could remain so loftily unobservant and unimpressed?
14443Why were all these lips dumb?
14443Why were not all the sophistries brushed away, by which the conspirators against the Government were hiding the real effect and purpose of the votes?
14443Why were these scattered and young and inexperienced troops not told, by their leaders, of the vast issues involved in this coming vote?
14443Why?
14443Would it not be possible for the Government, asked Sir Charles, to adopt the proposal with regard to their measures?
14443[ Sidenote: Which is the buffoon?]
14443[ Sidenote: Who said"Rats"?]
14443[ Sidenote: Why no signal?]
14443away from the real fighting?
14443friend,"asked Mr. Gladstone, with scorn in every tone,"willing to submit himself to the same process of examination?
14443with which they rent the general air-- their hoarse cries of"Shame, shame"--their open and foul taunts in the face of the G.O.M.?
19329A trunk,answered Pat,"an''for what, yerra?"
19329And meself go naked, is it? 19329 For how could river, lake, and sea In softer sister hues agree?
19329Pat,said the merchant,"you''re going to travel; will you buy a trunk?"
19329Why do you dare chase my stag?
19329And when will summer kiss awake Lovelier flowers by lawn or brake?
19329And where is the beauty that once was thine?
19329He was ushered into the presence of a courteous official, who was a little astonished to be authoritatively asked,"Who are you?"
19329Or brighter berries blush between Foliage of a fresher green?"
19329Or hills of passionate purple glow Far and near more proudly flow?
19329Then the Roundhead general said, Fingering his sword-- Art thou coming to be we d, Like a heathen lord?
19329When your lover whispered low--"Shall I stay or shall I go, Kathaleen?"
19329Who could do aught but mar the true expression Where all is change?
19329where Kincora is Brian the Great?
19329where are the princes and nobles that sate At the feast in thy halls, and drank the red wine?
19329your hair is white as snow, Kathaleen, Your heart is sad and full of woe-- Do you repent you bade him go, Kathaleen?
18682Are not the_ Hanse_ townes ashamed to maintaine and pretend a priuiledge, that is to say, a priuate lawe against a publike and soueraigne lawe?
18682But what?
18682Did he not openly pronounce that course of theirs altogether vnlawfull?
18682Did he then chastise those his ministers being returned into Spaine, as transgressers of his pleasures?
18682Did hee detaine from them all rewards and preferments, as hauing ill deserued them?
18682May hee be taken for a man of a good spirit,& of no poysoned minde against her Maiestie?
18682hath he blamed the auctours of such facts, and excused himself to the Queene?
18682whither should the long and sacred quiet of the Romane Empire haue gone to hide it selfe?
18682will the inhabitants of the Hanse Townes pretend that they knewe not the Queene of Englands pleasure?
18682would you suffer the cloke of popish religion and obedience, to exempt such traytors from the seueritie of Iustice?
18682woulde you suffer them to liue, that woulde you should not liue?
16559Do you recognise it?
16559HOW IS OLD IRELAND AND HOW DOES SHE STAND?
16559O''Donnell Abooas our national anthem?
16559Presbyterian Government,was there a call for this at Ballinahinch?
16559Well, Mr. Denvir, what can I do for you?
16559What do you complain of?
16559After they had heard him patiently, an old man, the spokesman, said:"Tell me-- do you have Prodestans in this Society of yours?"
16559And a Rebel?
16559And why not?
16559Are you not going to stay for the banquet?"
16559At last he had it--"Oh"he said,"You would be a son of Margaret O''Loughlin?"
16559Charles Russell was too wary, and, perhaps, too far- seeing, who can tell?
16559Commins?"
16559Fenianism.--What did it do for Ireland?
16559He asked Mr. Thomas Gregson, his private secretary, a friend of mine: Who had written this review?
16559Hearing of Father Mathew''s visit, he asked how many of the boys would go to Crown Street to"take the pledge"--their parents being willing?
16559Hogan''s counsel produced a similar revolver, and asked the witness if he could identify it as his manufacture?
16559How is it that the sons of the men of 1782 and of Grattan''s Parliament, and of 1798 were not as good Irishmen as their fathers?
16559How, he asked, could he or any man put bounds to the progress of a nation?
16559It may be asked, after all, what did Fenianism do for Ireland?
16559John Barry once told me that a friend of his asked one of these how they could live in such places?
16559K. Kehoe, Inspector Lawrence.--Did he shut his eyes in my case?
16559Parnell, noticing, I suppose, that I seemed uneasy about something, asked,"What''s amiss with you, Denvir?"
16559Second, is it practicable?
16559Shall we go to Denvir?"
16559The prosecuting counsel asked:--"How do you know it is yours?"
16559Then, as they came in sight of the famous plain itself, a man struck up:-- Where will they have their camp?
16559Was this a premonition that his end was near?
16559What, however, are the reflections which bring encouragement?
16559Where could he see them?
16559Why was the bitter feud over the leadership of the Irish Party so long kept up?
16559Why was the happy reconciliation so long delayed?
16559With the active personal help and the prayers of a saintly man like Father McGrath how could we lose?
16559You will ask what became of him?
16559and I have heard her exclaiming, I at the time believing it most implicitly:"Sin, is it?
16559and"What''s my Thought Like?"
16559when he asked, as he took my hand,"Where are you going, Denvir?
21411There was for many years in the centre of the Square an obelisk with the inscription,"Obtusum Obtusioris Ingenii Monumentum Quid me respicis viator?
16913Have I?
16913Is this, too, mine?
16913Our commander, our master, our father, our friend, our companion, is no more, and when shall we behold his equal? 16913 Will you, my dear Hardy?"
16913Are these things to be tolerated?
16913But, what shall I say, if Prince Luzzi has authorized this man to enter La Vilette, and to communicate with the enemy?
16913Can any thing compensate, to his family, the loss of such a brother?

16913Captain Troubridge then asked this plain question--"If Lord Nelson breaks the armistice, will your eminence assist him in the attack of the castles?"

16913If the Foudroyant is not ready, or in a state to fetch your lordship, what are your wishes?
16913Is it for the interest, is it for the honour, of the country, that they should not as speedily as possible be redressed?

16913Soon afterwards, his lordship asked--"Think you, that the British fleet has quitted Bornholm?
16913Then, as if asking the question, he repeated--"Doctor, I have not been a great sinner?"
16913What are your ideas of the king''s going into the Bay of Naples, without foreign troops?
16913What will his lordship say, when he reads the passports?
16913When shall we once more see our dear children?"
16913Who, then, shall say, on a just consideration of these indisputable facts, that this great man was amply rewarded by his country?
16913Why did he not take possession of them?
16913Why will your highness be thus led astray by evil counsellors; who can have no other object in view, but your ruin?
16913Would they have delivered them up to the then overpowered besiegers?
16913Would you dare to disturb him?"

20897What did they believe of their fathers?
20897What forced her into it?
20897What would the guttersnipe have learnt as a graduate, except to embrace a Saxon because he was the other half of an Anglo- Saxon?

18209Was it so?
18209Was it wrong of Hamlet to finger the packet of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and rewrite his uncle''s despatch?
18209Was there that wide disposition to welcome an invading army in so large a majority of the nation?
18209What else was he going out for?
18209Where and how did these mariners learn their trade?
18209Where did these ships come from?

13112On this melancholy case the comment of the editor of the_ United Irishman_ was as follows:--"Now what became of poor Boland''s twenty acres of crop?
13112Or rather, why insult justice, in demanding of me why sentence of death should not be pronounced against me?
13112The poet Dante consigned traitors to, I believe, the ninth circle of hell; but what kind of traitors?
13112Was it a change of masters?
13112Was not the time for hustings orations, and parliamentary agitation over now?
13112Was this the object of my ambition?
13112What had become of James Stephens?
13112What is death?
13112What of that charge?
13112Where now should they find the Moses to lead them from the land of captivity?
13112Why did your lordships insult me?
13112Why should I feel regret?
13112Why then, I say, should I feel regret?
13112Why?
13112and for what end?
13112and for what?

1468And what ailed the old blockhead then,cried Jeffreys,"that he did not take it?"
1468Does your Lordship think,said Baxter,"that any jury will convict a man on such a trial as this?"
1468For which King?
1468For whom are you?
1468I am at peace with God,answered Rumbold, calmly;"how then can I be confounded?"
1468Is there then no hope?
1468Shall I bring a priest?
1468Sir,said one of the Bishops,"do you not pray for the King with us?"
1468Was there ever,exclaimed the judge, with an oath,"was there ever such a villain on the face of the earth?
1468Was there ever,he cried,"such an impudent rascal?
1468Will she take the abjuration?
1468Above all, was he to be suffered to retain a fortune raised out of the substance of the ruined defenders of the throne?
1468Again Baxter essayed to speak, and again Jeffreys bellowed"Richard, Richard, dost thou think we will let thee poison the court?
1468And was there not good reason to believe that this refusal was prompted by laudable feelings?
1468And what interest had the King in gorging his old enemies with prey torn from his old friends?
1468And what was it to him who ruled after him?
1468And, if so, would the nation compel him to do what he thought criminal and disgraceful?
1468Balfour said Do you question the King''s election?
1468But did not David kill a bear?
1468But how will you look in that day when you shall be judged by what is written in this book?"
1468But was there indeed a Parliament?
1468But what army commanded by a debating club ever escaped discomfiture and disgrace?
1468But what reason could be given for setting up Monmouth?
1468But why not forty as well as one?
1468But, impatient as he was of constitutional restraints, how was he to emancipate himself from them?
1468Did not another lord of ours kill five bears?
1468Did not the Lord Deputy Ireton kill a bear?
1468Does the divine and immutable law of primogeniture admit females, or exclude them?
1468Dost thou believe that there is a God?
1468Had Halifax got the better of Rochester?
1468Had Monmouth really been summoned from the Hague?
1468Had not constituent bodies been remodelled, in defiance of royal charters and of immemorial prescription?
1468Had not returning officers been everywhere the unscrupulous agents of the Court?
1468Having shared the distress of their prince, were they not to share his triumph?
1468His ordinary form of indignant denial was"Do you take me for an Englishman?"
1468How can one help abhorring both these men and their religion?
1468Pray sir, han''t I seen your face at Will''s coffeehouse?
1468To whom, then, was their first application made?
1468Was he to be ranked with men who had no need of the royal clemency, with men who had, in every part of their lives, merited the royal gratitude?
1468Was it George or William, an agent of the lowest or of the highest class?
1468Was it wise, men asked, at such a time, to make any addition to the strength of a monarchy already too formidable?
1468Was the Duke of York really going to Scotland?
1468Was there to be a Parliament?
1468What selfish motive could faction itself impute to the royal mind?
1468What, he often said, could be more unjust, than to visit speculations with penalties which ought to be reserved for acts?
1468Which of them, then, was the more likely to be employed in the matter to which Sunderland''s letter related?

1879Are you not,said she,"ashamed to give any credit to the visions of a jealous fellow, who brought nothing else with him from Italy?
1879Can you blame him, my liege,said Humphrey, who loved a jest,"that he goes heavily, having the weight of three kingdoms on his back?"
1879Do you think,he asked,"this moderation of yours will repair the wrong your family has committed by its elevation?
1879If so, sir,replied the great poet and staunch republican,"what must we think of his majesty''s execution upon a scaffold?"
1879Rosemary and sweet briar; who''ll buy my lavender?
1879So,said this frail daughter of Eve, greedily swallowing his flattery,"you are sure to disappoint a woman who has favoured you for one who has not?"
1879Then,said his brother- physician,"you are certainly a stranger in this house; do n''t you know what was done last night?
1879Well,replied her grace, well pleased at this beginning,"what if I am there?"
1879Why, what have you there?
1879Why,said the man, who but an hour before had been his best friend,"you will not hurt me in coming out, will you?"
1879''Not I?''
1879''Why so?''
1879Accordingly, when one of the physicians came to him next morning, the High Protector said,"Why do you look sad?"
1879And as the hostler was helping me to feed the horses,''Sure, sir,''says he,''I know your face?''
1879He called out sturdily,''Who goes there?''
1879He then asked his majesty if he were sorry for the iniquities of his life?
1879He who held the axe in his hand hesitated a second, and then said in a low and troubled voice,"Do you forgive me, sir?"
1879If she be a lady of such quality, why does she demean herself to be a courtesan?
1879Madame Buviere says he never gave the queen a good word; and when she spoke to him he used to say,"Que me veut cette femme?"
1879Marvelling at this, some of those standing apart said to each other,"Are they quarrelling, that they talk so high?"
1879Since he has made you his confidant, why did not he boast of breaking in pieces my poor harmless guitar?
1879Then another thought flashing across his mind, he said,"But will not this expose you to much danger?"
1879What business brought you here?"
1879Why should not history repeat itself in this respect?
1879Will your ladyship be at the play to- night?"
1879are you mad?

22387Does not their island lie more exposed to the great Atlantic; and does not the west wind blow three- fourths of a year?
22387If there was another island yet more westward, would not the climate of Ireland be improved?
22387May we not recognise in this the hand of bounteous Providence, which has given perhaps the most stony soil in Europe to the moistest climate in it?
22387Ought not people of fashion to blush at a practice which will very soon be the distinction only of the most contemptible of the people?
22387Take the island, however, as it is, with its few imperfections, and where are we to find such another?

14754How long will it take only to extirpate these traditions from the recollections of the natives?
14754How, indeed, could they die more gloriously than in the service of their country?

23642By what laws,asked Bacon,"shall this Britain be governed?"
23642We now enjoy God and Jesus Christ,he wrote to those at home,"and is not that enough?
23642Bacon''s shrewd question,"Under which laws is this Britain to be governed?"
23642Then he called out,"Is Mr. Pym here?"
23642she exclaimed;"is_ must_ a word to be addressed to princes?

18314How would you like,said he to an officer who shared Pitt''s liberal tendencies,"to see Roman Catholic chaplains on board our ships?"
18314Then,shouted he,"d----n you, why do n''t you fire?"
18314To say how much we wanted Lord Hood( the last commander- in- chief), wrote Nelson,"is to ask,''Will you have all the French fleet or no battle?''"
18314What do they mean by invariably sending the mutinous ships to me? 18314 What do you mean?
18314What is that to you, sir?
18314Who,he wrote,"would trust himself in chief command with such a set of scoundrels as are now in office?"
18314Why,another was heard to reply,"where should he learn manners, seeing as how he was never at sea before?"
18314You ask me,wrote the future admiral to his brother,"by what interest did I get a ship?
18314Are they determined to undo their country?
18314Do they think that I will be hangman to the fleet?"
18314How the---- did he get there?''
18314Some one must suffer for this remissness, and who more naturally than the commander of a distant station, who confessed himself"no politician"?
18314The flag- ship queried,"Are you ready?"
18314The next year, an army officer of rank, putting questions to him and receiving no answer, said,"Mr. Howe, do n''t you hear me?
18314The question may naturally be asked,--Why, among types of naval officers, is there no mention, other than casual, of the name of Nelson?
18314The reply was,"If we make peace with every one, what is the Dey to do with his ships?"
18314Then, looking the unlucky officer in the face, he continued,"Pray, Mr.----, how does a man_ feel_ when he is frightened?
18314Well, sir, what mean you to do now?''
18314What Rodney may have said to others may be uncertain; to his wife, soon after reaching his station, he wrote,"What are the ministers about?

19849Shall we fight or shall we fly? 19849 What,"he exclaimed,"would the Kaiser say, if the King wrote a letter like that to Tirpitz?"
19849Who are you?
19849Why,they asked,"should the British have so much white man''s country while we have so little?"
19849An officer awaiting his turn on deck asked,"What are all those men lying down for?"

19849And leaders and followers alike, when faithful unto death, are they not among the noblest martyrs ever known?
19849Anton, however, was a very brave man, and he stoutly replied,"Strike sail?
19849But the great question was, who is to have the key?
19849But when, at the end of the week, Sidonia asked Oquendo,"What are we to do now?
19849But who would have thought that even the Germans would sink every merchantman without the least care for the lives of the crew?
19849For some were sunk and many were shatter''d, and so could fight us no more-- God of battles, was ever a battle like this in the world before?
19849He then ran below to see Nelson, who at once asked,"Well, Hardy, how goes the battle?"

19849If they had the finest navy in the world, why did n''t it wipe the Grand Fleet off the North Sea altogether?

14193Is it because Hillsborough, the stupidest of your brother peers, paid you such fine compliments on your speech?
14193Shall I tell you what Lady Jersey is like?
14193The hand of Godit was, no doubt, which struck the fatal blow-- it always must be; but was there no other agency, and that a human one?
14193What are pedigrees worth?
14193What is it worth?
14193What must I do, then?
14193What o''clock is it?
14193What should I do?
14193What''s that?
14193What, to a fine gentleman? 14193 Yes, fellow,"rejoined her Grace,"do n''t you see my arms upon my carriage?"
14193You refuse to sign?
14193''What odds?''
14193A few days later when the King met Lady Sarah, he asked:"Has your friend given you my message?"
14193And was it not strange that this late arrival should appear to be several months older than his more robust brother, as the purchased child was?
14193And what of the child who drew from her mother royal and ducal strains, and from her father the blood of stablemen and peasants?
14193And what was the fate of Mary King, the cause, however innocent, of all this tragedy?
14193Breaking away from her guardian the pretty little madcap ran up to the King and exclaimed in French:"How do you do, Mr King?
14193But I did n''t show it, did I?"
14193But was he not her hero, one of"Nature''s gentlemen,"and as such the equal of any man in the land?
14193But was he to blame?
14193But what could have been Lady Jean''s motive; and does the sequel furnish a clue to it?
14193By- and- bye the watch came up to them, and when the watch came they said,"Gentlemen, why do you walk with your swords drawn?"
14193Can one wonder that the proud spirit of the girl rebelled against such ignominy?
14193Could it not be the hand of a brother?
14193Could that exquisite flower of young womanhood be the ugly, awkward girl he had married so strangely as a boy?
14193Do I not daily boast how I betrayed The tender widow and the virtuous maid?"

14193How had this tragedy happened?
14193How would you like, my dear Sally, to be its mistress?"
14193If she be a lady of such quality, why does she demean herself to be what she is?
14193In about two hours Lord Ferrers appeared at the garret window, and called out:''How is Johnson?''
14193Ireland, my lords, is armed; and what is her language?
14193Pray now, where is the wretch who would not be happy?"
14193Tell her so from me, will you?"
14193The lass loves him dearly; and has he not house and land, too, and plenty of money to keep her?"
14193Then, with a toss of her proud head, she turned to Rogers and laughingly said,"I did that well, did n''t I?"
14193Was ever lover more abject, or ever maid so hard of heart, at least in seeming?
14193Was ever maid placed, on the threshold of life, in so dangerous a predicament?
14193Was ever wayward woman so unjust?
14193Was ever woman so hard to woo or to understand, or lover so patient under so much provocation?
14193Was ever wooing and winning so strange, so inexplicable?
14193Was it at all likely that such a man would drop dead during a quiet and unexciting stroll across country?
14193Was it innocence or artfulness, this assumption of childish prudery?
14193Was it suicide or a brutal murder?
14193Was there ever so tantalising and inscrutable a maid?
14193Was there ever such a man?
14193What could the poor merchant do in such a predicament, when his Sovereign stooped to beg as a favour what his lonely heart yearned to grant?
14193What do you think of it?"
14193What more direct encouragement could an ardent lover want?
14193What was the cause of his mysterious death?
14193What would you do?"
14193Whatever may be the truth, none could prove it then; and who shall succeed now?
14193Where did he go, and how did he get his gold?
14193Would not indeed,"the genial old chatterbox adds,"one wonder how they could get anybody, either above or below that rank, to dine with them at all?
14193Yes or no?"
14193You have a beautiful house here,_ n''est- ce pas_?"
14193and had Dudley any hand in it?
10700But are there not,he pursued,"some among you who think otherwise?"
10700Tell me,said he to Sterry, one of his chaplains,"Is it possible to fall from grace?"
10700At these words the lord- general abruptly exclaimed,"What, if a man should take upon him to be king?"
10700But at what part of the action?
10700But even in that hypothesis, how could the house, constituted as it then was, claim to be the representative of the people?
10700But had they then done nothing?
10700But how could that be, when the storm began on the 11th, and the army marched from Drogheda on the 15th?
10700But how could these bloody proceedings be reconciled with the terms of capitulation which had been already granted?
10700But in what style was Louis to address the usurper by letter?
10700But was not the necessity of his creation?
10700But what right had they exclusively to constitute a house of parliament?
10700But where was he to seek an asylum?
10700But where was he to seek an asylum?
10700But where, he asked, were the Lords?
10700But who sees not the crass hypocrisy of this whole transaction, and the sandy and rotten foundation of all the resolutions flowing hereupon?"
10700But, after all, what right could this handful of men have to impose a new constitution on the kingdom?
10700By delivering him to his enemies, they had sullied the fair fame of the nation-- would they confirm this disgrace by tamely acquiescing in his death?
10700By what right could it pretend to summon a parliament?
10700Can we be surprised, if, under such circumstances, he sought to escape?
10700Could he be sincere?
10700Could he not then have ordered his men to keep within the castle, or have recalled them when they forced an entrance into the town?
10700Could they confer on others a jurisdiction which they did not possess themselves?
10700Did then the fanatic believe that perfidy and cruelty were gifts of God?
10700Fleetwood, from Dublin, asks Thurloe,"How cam it to passe, that this last teste was not at the first sitting of the house?"
10700Had he dissembled, or had he changed his mind?
10700Have you any written commission from Sir Thomas Fairfax?
10700Have you any written commission?
10700How could he justify such oaths in his own mind?
10700How did Cromwell obtain possession of Drogheda?
10700How, it was asked, could Richard hope to control such an assembly, when the genius and authority of Oliver had proved unequal to the attempt?
10700If the power were the same under a protector, where, he asked, could be the use of a king?
10700Joyce, I desire to ask you, what authority you have to take charge of my person and convey me away?
10700Lastly, what right had the Commons to admit a negative voice, either in another house or in a single person?
10700On what account?
10700Ought not the House of Lords, the peers who had been excluded in 1649, to concur?
10700Ought they not, in consistency with their own principles, to have ascertained the sense of the nation by calling a new parliament?
10700Recovering himself, he said,"Good woman, can you be faithful to a distressed Cavalier?"
10700That Pantaleon and his friends were armed, can not be denied: was it for revenge?
10700Was it on the fallacious ground that what he in reality sought was the office of king, not of protector?]
10700Was it solely for defence?
10700We could well spare them, and they would be of use to you; and who knows but it may be a means to make them Englishmen, I mean rather Christians?"
10700Were the Commons the whole legislature?
10700Were the minutes of this conversation committed to paper immediately, or after the Restoration?
10700Were they a court of judicature?
10700Were they free?

14992What were Freeman''s qualifications for delivering an authoritative judgment on the work of Froude?
14992What were the lessons which after such a life he chiefly desired to teach young Englishmen who were studying the past?

16915And will Erskine be justified in sending men before his entirely uncertain arrival?
16915As it is, Ball can hardly keep the inhabitants in hope of relief; what then will it be if the Portuguese withdraw?

17520Can such an affection be delightful to a virtuous mind?
17520Can they exchange more dear and affectionate pledges?
17520Can we conceive a higher felicity, than the blending of their interests and lives in such an union?

17520Of what"use is grandeur to those who are already happy?
17520Or what if I turned the whole into the style of English poetry, to see how it would look?
17520SHOULD I make her despicable, who appears amiable in my eyes?
17520Should I reward her tenderness, by making her abhorred by her family, by rendering her children indifferent to her, and her husband detestible( sic)?

10590But what?
10590Can anything be more uncharitable than damning eternally so many millions for not believing what they never heard?

10590Henry Seymour Conway:"Did I tell you Lady Mary Wortley is here?
10590How can you be so careless?--is it because you do n''t love writing?
10590I really pity Lady Bute; what will the progress be of such a commencement?"
10590I was at the assembly of the Countess of----, and the young Count of---- led me down stairs, and he asked me how long I intended to stay here?

12853Lawmade us outcasts-- scourged us, trampled us, plundered us-- do you marvel that, amongst the Irish people, law has been held in"disesteem?"
12853And now, what is the charge against my fellow- traversers and myself?
12853Are we to have a succession of these"scenes in court?"
12853But do you wonder greatly that law of that complexion failed to secure popular sympathy and respect?
12853But do you, then, marvel that the laws imposed on us by the power that perpetrated that deed are not revered, loved, and respected?
12853But even within the Pale, how did it recommend itself to popular reverence and affection?
12853But how and in what spirit was Emancipation granted?
12853But how were they received?
12853But what is the fact?
12853But what took place?
12853But who is it that challenges me?
12853But, gentlemen of the jury, what is that Irish nation to which my allegiance turns?
12853Can this be called trial by jury?
12853Did the magistrates sign it?
12853Do I mean only those who think and feel as I do on public questions?
12853Do I thereby mean a party, or a class, or creed?
12853Do you believe that that want of respect arises from the"seditions"of men like my fellow- traversers and myself?
12853Do you marvel that they held in"disesteem"the law and government that acted thus?
12853Do you think this feeling arises from"sympathy with assassination or murder?"
12853Does a man, by protesting, ever so vehemently, against an act of a not infallible tribunal, incur the charge of attempting its overthrow?
12853For what, then, were those chains put on untried prisoners?
12853Had the brightness of that era been prolonged-- picture it, think of it-- what a country would ours be now?
12853Has not all the Queen''s subjects the right to say altogether if they can without disturbance of the Queen''s peace?

12853How was he met by the government?
12853How were their expectations met?
12853I believe, Sir, you( to Mr. Murphy) are the crown?
12853I have been summoned myself-- Mr. Dix-- Who are you?
12853I have heard it asked by a lawyer addressing this court as a question that must be answered in the negative-- can you indict a whole nation?
12853If you poison a stream at its source, will you marvel if down through all its courses the deadly element is present?
12853Is it not pertinent, therefore, gentlemen, for me to say to you this is an unwise proceeding which my prosecutors bid you to sanction by a verdict?
12853Is it wonderful to see estrangement between a people and laws imposed on them by the over- ruling influence of another nation?
12853Mr. Dix-- And he has done so?
12853Mr. Dix-- Does anyone appear for Mr. Scanlan?
12853Mr. Sullivan-- And can the crown order a juror to stand by without a cause assigned?
12853Mr. Sullivan-- My lord, have I any right to challenge?
12853Odious it may be, but in the eyes of whom?
12853Oh, who will say in that brief hour at least the Irish nation was not reconciled to the throne and laws?
12853Surely not of any loyal subject?
12853That was the seed-- that was the plant-- do you wonder if the tree is not now esteemed and loved?
12853The scaffold streamed with the blood of those whom the people loved and revered-- how could they love and revere the scaffold?
12853The scenes of yesterday in the Dublin police- court will cause an astonished public to put the question, is the government insane?
12853Think you it was"sympathy for murder"called us forth, or caused the priests of the Catholic Church to drape their churches?
12853Was it done because the ministers discovered that the terror of suspended habeas corpus had not in this matter stifled public opinion?
12853Was that a just verdict?
12853Waters or Mr. Scanlan?
12853We saw all this-- we saw all this; and think you it did not sink into our hearts?
12853We so declared when we imagined that they would be at least rationally conducted; but what is to be said now?
12853What a unanimity of feeling, or rather what a naturalness of sentiment does not this wonderful demonstration exhibit?
12853What did he seek?
12853What is the meaning of that phrase,"the police?"
12853What was the course adopted by the crown in the first instance against me?
12853What was the object?
12853What was the result?
12853What was to be done?

12853When he had concluded, and was about calling evidence, the following singular episode took place:-- Mr. Dix-- You only proceed against two parties?
12853When millions of the Queen''s subjects think that such wrong has been done, is it sedition for them to say so peaceably and publicly?
12853Who is it that calls out to me,"Oh, ingrate son, where is the filial affection, the respect, the obedience, the support, that is my due?
12853Who is it that demands my loyalty?
12853Who was this person thus called the"police?"
12853Who, then?
12853Who, unless in times of governmental panic, need apprehend unwarranted arrest?
20947Do you think,he exclaimed, on the man''s expressing some sympathy with his approaching fate,"I am afraid of an axe?
20947Do?
20947My Lord,he exclaimed,"we are undone; my army is routed: what will become of poor Scotland?"
20947My Lord,said the man,"what I do, is to serve the nation; do you forgive me?"

22588But I can not refrain from asking in this connection: Who would not be proud of being a Millbrooker?
22588But some may ask, Had the desire to become a preacher diminished?
22588But surely they were tinged with this reflection: Would she ever see me again?
22588Did I like my school- days at Millbrook?
22588Did she?
22588Did the schoolmaster become acquainted with this breach of discipline?
22588Did this seaman accidentally fall from the rigging, or lose his grasp in any manner?
22588Do you mean that you only stayed a week?
22588He was asked one day where his messmate Jack Frost was?
22588How can I doubt Providence in the light of this incident?
22588How do I account for the contrast?
22588How fared it with him?
22588How we, as schoolboys, delighted to roll in this mud( for what is dirty to a school- boy?)
22588In the evening when father came home he asked the question as was his wo nt:"How has Henry been to- day?"
22588Is it I?
22588My messmates were forehead awaiting the result, and as I approached them a dozen voices shouted--"How goes it?"
22588Oh, I thought, was ever any disappointment so vexatious as mine?
22588On another occasion a civilian at Halifax asked him,"What do you sailors get to eat at sea?"
22588The building yard being in close proximity to the''Impregnable'', I could hear the brass band every morning, and what is so enticing as music?
22588The last ship to pass her was the''Canada,''the band playing--"Where have you been all the day?"
22588The mess deck in the morning was usually strewn with boots and shoes, and the general cry was--"Where are my shoes?"
22588Was there another sorrow in store for me?
22588What about my companion?
22588What about the dangerous ruins-- should they be left standing?
22588What is the great truth which my career teaches me?
22588What thoughts were passing through her mind that Sunday afternoon?
22588What wonder, then, that we were anxious to behold her?
22588Who could grumble when living upon such dainties?
22588a naval policeman) approached me and asked,"Had I any money or jewellery?"
21352Whether Hope or Fear be the most powerful incentive to Action?
21352Whether Old Bachelors ought to be most pitied, envied or blamed?
21352But query, ought I to have been so particular as to the letter of the law?
21352But what would a town be without its Town Hall as the heart and centre of its official life?
21352Had even the respectable journeyman carpenter cut his finger?
21352Have nations, like individuals, an intuitive sense or presentiment of something to come?
21352Have we degenerated since the period of this stiff and vigorous debating of our great grandfathers?
21352Here are the first two questions debated:--"Whether a General Enclosure will be beneficial or prejudicial to the Nation?"
21352If he did find such a nuisance he had{ 46} instructions"to make presentment to the Quarter Sessions if need be?"
21352If the early coaches on the main roads were in such a sorry plight, what was to be expected of traffic on the parish roads?
21352The Lord Chief Justice rose, and, leaning over the Bench, said, in a half whisper--"Brother, were you ever in the stocks?"
21352The question discussed was--''Is private affection inconsistent with universal benevolence?''"
21352Then, the Overseer provided the needed article.--Had widow Jones broken her spinning wheel or her patten ring?
21352Were Joe Thompson''s children ailing?
21352What number of Daily Schools?
21352What number of schools confined nominally or virtually to any other Religious Denominations?
21352What number of schools confined nominally or virtually to the Established Church?
21352When, and O when, does this little Boney come?
21352Why do you come to torment me before my time?
21352but if you meet with an accident when riding by train-- where are you?"
21352officials to do?
28283Was it for this,she said,"that I made so many sacrifices, and endured so many trials on his account in his early years?
28283Was this all true, or was the pretense only a desperate measure of Bothwell''s to induce Morton to join him?
28283Would it be prudent to intercept Mary upon her passage?
26419Do you not regret the Arsenal and its delights?
26419Do you see that?"
26419From whom does all this money come?
26419Have the Wangs seen the Futai?"
26419How would you meet him if you came too?"
26419On the way Major Gordon said to his companion,''Are you ready to mount?''
26419Turning to the woman, he said, with a twinkle in his eye,"You wanted it, I suppose?"
26419What is it?"
26419Will you take the command?"
26419Would you consider the fish a dainty?"
26419eh?"
14374Are we to go on for ever upon this path? 14374 Finally, what would be the effect of a breakdown at the front?
14374Is it that he wanted to be cheered? 14374 Is that the proposal?
14374Shall we not be denounced for making them?
14374What about the Army? 14374 What is it that stands in the way of Ireland taking her place as a self- governing part of this Empire?
14374What will be the certain effect of a breakdown? 14374 What will be the effect in America?
14374Which regiment?
14374Why does the right honourable gentleman opposite not meet us half way? 14374 Why should they shoot the people in Dublin when they let the Ulstermen do what they like?"
14374Will you promise,said Parnell,"that you will write out what you are going to say, and show it to me, and say that and no more?"
14374''What is it?
14374Are we never to be allowed to have peace in our country?"
14374Are we to go back into the region of perpetual and violent agitation in order to get the reforms we need?
14374Are you still determined to stand out?"
14374But as one of our rank and file said in my ear,"If we had not given the vote we did, where would be all this talk of harmony?
14374But how does that help us?
14374But if there is no settlement, do you imagine the Treasury will do anything to help us?
14374But the Ulster Unionists-- what sacrifice had they made?
14374But was there everywhere a desire to do justice to what Ireland could give-- and was willing to give?
14374Colloquy began:"Is n''t it a hard thing that you would n''t let us speak?"
14374Could he by waiting his time have made a better bargain?
14374Could we hope to win the war if America dropped out?
14374Did the agreement mean that none of the six excluded counties could be brought under a Dublin Parliament without an Act of Parliament?
14374Do the counties of Down and Antrim and Londonderry, for instance, ask to be excepted from the scope of this Bill?
14374Do they ask for a parliament of their own, or do they wish to remain here?
14374Do you think I ought to?"
14374Does anyone suppose that Sir Edward Carson had no voice in the staffing of the Ulster Division?
14374Efficient for what?
14374How are we to get back?
14374How could he hope for an Ulster united to Ireland, if Ulster were divided from Ireland on the war?
14374How could they accomplish this?
14374How shall we write his own?
14374How was the Irish recruiting problem to be dealt with?
14374How, men asked, even if a bargain could be made with Constitutional Nationalists, should that covenant be carried into effect?
14374I agree with every word he said, but what is the difficulty?
14374I ask him whether the circumstances of the time do not warrant that such an attempt should be made?
14374I ask, do they claim separate treatment for themselves?
14374If you do, what will be the disastrous consequences not only to Ulster, but to this country and the Empire?
14374In a speech delivered in Belfast, at the opening of a new drill hall, he asked and answered the question,"Why are we drilling?"
14374In other words, was the exclusion permanent until Parliament should otherwise determine?
14374Is it worthy of Ulster''s Imperial loyalty?
14374Is that the demand?"
14374Is there a man in this room who can contemplate without horror the immediate future of Ireland if this Convention fails?
14374Is there an Englishman representing any party who does not yearn for a better future between Ireland and Great Britain?
14374May I say something more than that?
14374On the other hand, what sacrifices had been made by the Southern Unionists?
14374She found her cook up in arms:"Is it me boil the kettle for Englishmen coming in to shoot down Irishmen?"
14374Sir Edward Carson shot the question at him:"Will you agree to it?"
14374The Ulsterman turned:"Not let you speak?
14374The listeners would applaud, but after the meeting one and another would come up privately and say:"Are you sure now they are n''t fooling us again?"
14374There was passionate resentment against the Government, and the question was asked, For what were their men dying?
14374Was Ireland only to be let drift?
14374Was the Army to be used against all movements except those under the patronage of the Tory party?
14374What did Mr. Barrie say in his formal document?
14374What is safety for the Empire?
14374What is safety for us?
14374What remained then, if Ulster would not accept the offer?
14374What would be the effect throughout the Empire?
14374Where''s John Redmond?"
14374Who can say that is an exaggeration?
14374Who could suppose that the formation of combatant forces would remain a monopoly of any party?
14374Who should have authority over Volunteers in a State?
14374Who were the enemy, and what the weapon?
14374Why can not there be a settlement?
14374Why can not we do it?
14374Why must it be that, when British soldiers and Irish soldiers are suffering and dying side by side, this eternal old quarrel should go on?....
14374Why relieve him of one- third of his task?"
14374With this disposition in England itself, what was likely to be the feeling in Ireland?
14374Would he attempt to change the whole direction of a nation''s feeling?
14374Yes, but how was it attained?
14374Yet, what use are might- have- beens?
15450And even if we suppose the Irish Legislature and Executive to confine themselves within the letter of the Act, are the checks of any real value?
15450And if raised in driblets, on what will it be spent?
15450And if they could, what sort of a residuum of a United Kingdom government would be left over?
15450Are electors not responsible to Him for the use they make of their votes?
15450Are the forces to be controlled from England, and what is this but a counter revolution?
15450Are we deliberately to take a step which will almost certainly involve us in a similar dilemma?
15450Are we prepared to see four( or, if Wales be added, five) legislatures, and four( or five) executives, in these islands?
15450Are you now going to place a legislative weapon in her hand whereby she will be able to dominate Protestants also?
15450At what rate could an Irish government raise the money?
15450But Ulstermen ask, What is industrial prosperity without freedom?
15450But how would Protestants fare?
15450But if the civil power in Ireland does not call in the military force, how can the latter be used to enforce the law?
15450But what layman takes the slightest interest in these paper supremacies?
15450But what of the Church of Ireland under Home Rule?
15450But would she be secure under Home Rule?
15450But, could an Irish Government Guaranteed Railway Stock be issued at 4 per cent.?
15450Can Great Britain divest herself of a religious responsibility in dealing with Home Rule?
15450Can it be expected that this attempt, even if it succeeds, will produce better results for land purchase than the pitiable failure of the Act of 1909?
15450Can this be done with impunity?
15450Could the Irish Government borrow £50,000,000, and at what rate?
15450Does any one suppose that a million of the most earnest Protestants in the world are going to submit to such an arrangement?
15450Does not the balance of credit when the comparison is made with the Nationalists come on the side of Ulster?
15450Does this fact suggest nothing?
15450For what are the main constitutional dangers of creating rival Parliaments in the same State?
15450Has she ever said that she would practise toleration towards Protestants when she was in power?
15450Hedged in by British bayonets the Lord Lieutenant may exercise his veto, but upon whose advice will he do it?
15450How has he been met?
15450How is it that the line of demarcation in Irish politics almost exactly coincides with the line of demarcation in religion?
15450If they sow to the wind, must they not reap the whirlwind?
15450If this is not progression-- and progression under the Legislative Union-- to what can the predicate be more truthfully applied?
15450In what sense are any of these conditions likely to be true of, let us say, an Irish landlord under this Home Rule Bill?
15450Is federation consistent with the predominance of one state, England, in wealth and population?
15450Is it conceivable that all this can he accomplished if the Union between the countries is rent asunder?
15450Is it extravagant to suppose that the complainant would not gain much by his appeal to CÃ ¦ sar?
15450Is it not certain that less money will be raised in England, for Ireland, after Home Rule?
15450Is the Admiralty prepared to discharge this office in the event of war?
15450Is there not a God in Heaven who will take note of such national procedure?
15450Is this Bill likely to be so framed that its provisions can be adapted unchanged to Scotland, Wales, or England?
15450Must not each unit in a Federation be put as regards financial matters upon a like footing; and, if so, can Ireland bear her share?
15450Neither Englishmen nor Scotsmen would be willing themselves to enter under such a yoke, and why should they ask Irishmen to do so?
15450Once again, it is not unreasonable to ask-- How will a Dublin Parliament be able to provide the necessary funds?
15450Should Ireland under Home Rule be represented at Westminster by its members and representative peers?
15450The Union has been no obstacle to their development: why should it have been the barrier to the rest of Ireland?
15450They say, What has religion got to do with Home Rule?
15450What are the prospects of Irish agriculture under Home Rule?
15450What could she do, except, after a futile struggle, to give way?
15450What fiscal resources, and under what conditions are they obtainable?
15450What has been done in the domain of Irish Education, and what still remains to be done?
15450What has been the Irish Nationalist attitude?
15450What indissoluble relationship is there between the two that the expenditure upon the one should be made dependent upon the requirements of the other?
15450What is it?"
15450What then is the_ primâ facie_ case which has induced many Englishmen and Scotchmen to think that it ought to be seriously debated?
15450What will be the effect upon Ireland?
15450What will it avail, when that time comes, that in 1912 the Irish leaders declared themselves content with a subordinate legislature?
15450What, in the name of common sense, has land purchase to do with education?
15450What, then, is the secret of this determination?
15450What, then, would England do?
15450Whenever have they been treated in this manner before by the Government in their schemes of legislation?
15450Where in these instances is our"bigotry"or our hostility to Irish progress?
15450Where is the money to come from?
15450Who is going to be the_ de facto_ ruler of Ireland?"
15450Who is going to exercise supremacy?
15450Why can not similar safeguards be introduced into the Intermediate system?
15450Why should the opposition of aristocratic Tory landlords be thought worthy of respect?
15450Why should we then hesitate to apply to Irish discontent the"freedom"which has proved so sovereign a remedy elsewhere?
15450Why should"bigots"be conciliated; or"deadheads"receive so much consideration?
15450Will a Nationalist Parliament be prepared to find it, and if so, from what source?
15450Will an Irish elected authority agree to pay for these boons, and will they be able to pay?
15450Would independence have been granted to the Transvaal or Orange Free State had their use of it been foreseen?
15450gold_ rentes_ stand at 92, or of the Argentine, which has to borrow at nearly 5 per cent.?
26031After this admission, is it not surprising that the controversy should be mainly founded on the time at which the Hannibal struck her colours?
26031Did the boats come_ before_ or_ after_ the colours were hoisted union downwards, to render her assistance?
26031Saumarez, where are you going?''
26031The sufferer never uttered a moan, but as soon as it was over, quietly said--"Have I not borne it well?"
26031To what prison were you taken?
26031Were the colours hoisted union down by the enemy; or, at any time, by Captain Ferris''s orders?
26031What French officer took possession of the Hannibal?
26031What boats were taken; and what boats escaped?
26031When am I to hear from you?
26031While passing through the narrowest part of the channel, Sir James asked the pilot if he was sure he could see the marks for running through?
26031and when shall I be assured you have not suffered from the relation of these events?
26031ca n''t you put up with the fractious disposition of an old man?"
26031you want to get rid of me, do ye?"
28529but how dreadfully were they disappointed?
20948Are you,cried Charles,"Mr. Macdonald of Kingsburgh?"
20948Are you,he said, again addressing Donald,"afraid to go with me?
20948But if it were not on the shoulders?
20948Do you know,said the General,"what money was upon the gentleman''s head?
20948Had, then, the Highlanders combined to push forward,observes this able writer,"must not the increasing terror have palsied all power of resistance?
20948How often,he writes,"have I gone into houses on our marches to drive the men out of them, and drubbed them heartily?"
20948My Lord,inquired Mr. Foster,"I hope you do not think you have any injustice shown you?"
20948Sir,he observed,"I believe that is the English fashion,""What fashion do you mean?"
20948We can die but once,answered Kingsburgh;"could we die in a better cause?
20948What then,said Donald,"what could I have gotten by it?
20948At last Donald Roy said,"What do you think, Kingsburgh, if the Prince should run the risk of making his way over to Portree by land?"
20948Charles inquired,"How?"
20948If you ca n''t come, I beg to know if you have any men now in garrison at your house, and how many?
20948In after years,( what extreme of odium could be greater?)
20948She awoke in a surprise at some little bustle in the boat, and asked hastily"What was the matter?"
20948She inquired in some agitation"if it was the Prince?"
20948The General asked him"if he had been along with the Pretender?"
20948This was sufficient: the ill- fated prisoner immediately inquired,"whether the warrant for his execution was come down?"
20948What could he do with four thousand four hundred men, suppose he got to London, whatever were the dispositions of the Army and the City?
20948What else could sustain him in the agonies of that moment?
20948Will you ever write to me in my garret at Herenhausen?
20948Would not the little army at Finchley, with so convenient a place for dispersing as the capital behind it, have melted away at their approach?"
20948[ 281] Repeatedly, before the meeting, had O''Neil asked Flora whether she would like to see the Prince?
20948and have patience till another day?"
20948can not ye let alone talking o''your worldly affairs on the sabbath?
20948have I lived to see this?"
20948says he to Keppoch,''a Macdonald turn his back?''
27027''Who are you?''
27027Hen._ What treasure, uncle?
27027The Taverner took mee by the sleve; Sir, sayth he, wyll you our wyne assay?
27027The king, who found himself very disagreeably situated, turning to him, asked''To whom shall I surrender myself; to whom?
27027Then came the Taverner, and toke me by the sleve, And seyd Ser, a pint of wyn would yow assay?
27027Where is my cousin the Prince of Wales?
27027Wherfore, seide the kyng, have ye sclayne me?
27027_ Wot ye right well,& c._ Oure kyng seyde, Felas, what tyme of day?
27027dede y yow ever ony harme?
21324Dear me, Mrs, B., how can you say so? 21324 Well, then, what do you think of Miss O''Neil?"
21324Well, then,continued Mr. St. A---,"who do you call a good actor?"
21324''Wedding day,''exclaimed some of the fellows,''Who have you married?''
21324''Why, where''s your wife?''
21324An hundred years hence?--and what then?
21324And must not such teaching have had effect in after life?
21324But what did it all come to?
21324Darting to the footlights, as well as his little fat figure would let him, he roared out,"What''s all this here row about?"
21324Did they ever know of such an unreasonable request?"
21324Finding himself tied to the stake, as it were, the gentleman inquired under what terms he could be released?
21324How?
21324Mr. Grayson''s servant ran into the field, and met Mr. Sparling and Captain Colquitt hurrying up the foot- road, the former asked him"what he wanted?"
21324Templeton?"
21324Templeton?"
21324Templeton?"
21324Templeton?"
21324The big farmer hereupon bawled in my ear the question,"who was I, and where had I come from?"
21324The lady accosted Mr. Clarke with a winning air, and seeing that she was not recognised, said,"So you do n''t recollect me?"
21324Under which of these two fates will Liverpool find its lot some centuries hence?--which of these two pictures will it then present?
21324What could we expect but the results we have witnessed?
21324What was to be done?
21324When?
21324Whether true or false who can tell?
21324Which should remain?
21324Who could do so?
21324Who did it?
21324Who have we on the stage now?
21324Why,"she continued,"do you not recollect who played_ Little Pickle_ at Swansea and Bristol in 18--?"
21324Williamson noticed this, and inquired the reason?
20982Who are you? 20982 But if the attempt should be unsuccessful( and who shall say it will be otherwise? 20982 But if they should again prorogue the Parliament, and wish me to stay, supposing the point not decided, what shall I do? 20982 But in all modes of turning it, how is it possible to reconcile a heap of contradictions? 20982 Can I really have to think that you are serious in considering me as having struck at your honour and your life by any vote that I have given? 20982 Can you tell me where I can find any of my father''s papers upon it? 20982 Do you offer one to the_ Nolo Privy Councillari_, or do you draw the line of none but Privy Councillors? 20982 Does Lafayette join your consultation dinners with Franklin, as some of our Roupell intelligence sets forth? 20982 He asked whether I meant external as well as internal? 20982 How can this be done in Ireland without a Parliament? 20982 How, then, are you disgraced, because a single instance of this nature occurs within what are understood to be the limits of your patronage? 20982 I am waiting with the most anxious expectation the decision of the great question-- peace or war? 20982 I take it for granted the French Ministers will think it a point of spirit to seem rather less desirous of peace since your defeat in the West? 20982 I then stated your impatience, what you must feel, and asked how you could go on? 20982 I will take particular care of what you mention about Fitzherbert; was he desirous of the riband? 20982 If, because the Duke of Portland gave much, are you to give something? 20982 Is the jewellery-- I mean collars and badges-- to be done in Ireland? 20982 One may get a beat[ bet?] 20982 Query, whether he is by this means to be in the Cabinet with Twitcher? 20982 Should not you write him an ostensible letter on the subject? 20982 Though I have not written before, have not my punctuality and remembrance appeared conspicuous in the newspapers you receive? 20982 To the Duke of Portland''s people?--to the old Court and Lord Shannon?--to Hood and his set? 20982 To this I answered, that this was exactly my idea, but in the meantime, was it not fit you should know on what ground you stood? 20982 What answer will you give about your stopping the English recruiting parties_ car l''on est un peu choquà © là  -dessus_? 20982 What do you suppose is in contemplation about your Chancellor? 20982 What should you think of an arrangement to be settled now, and to take place at the opening of the session of 1788? 20982 What then is Pitt to do? 20982 Would this object be answered, if the Bill be passed without the express concurrence and consent of that Government which now exists? 20982 You know my_ principal_ object: should I press to have it opened for me now? 20982 about the King''s speech? 20982 and who are you, who give yourself these airs?
12000But how am I to know the gentleman?
12000Do you ne''er think what wondrous beings these? 12000 What thou art we know not; What is most like thee?
12000A New Englander, favorably impressed with the process, would be likely to answer these questions by another, and ask, will_ drainage_ pay?
12000But does it augment the yearly production of the farm by this amount?
12000But the dahlia itself-- what was that in its first estate, in the country in which it was first found in its aboriginal structure and complexion?
12000But who built this sixty- columned temple, and bent these lofty arches?
12000But why not do the other thing, too?
12000Can you make an angle of a single degree''s subtension in the hereditary conditions of these generations, or a dozen beyond?
12000Can you see among all the hopeful possibilities of Time''s tomorrows, any such change for the better?
12000Cowper lived and wrote in this, for instance; but who lived in it a century before he was born?
12000Did ever a reaper in the Old World or New cut and bind a sheaf of grain, who did not wield one of thy famous sickles?
12000Did not the water stand in the track of the horse''s hoof in such rich clay until evaporated by the sun?
12000Did patriotism ever fight bloodier battles to prevent such a union, or cling to local sovereignty with a more desperate hold?
12000Did they stand for things, qualities, or persons?
12000Did your fancy, in its wildest fictions, ever pass such an image across the speculum of your mental vision?
12000Do you ne''er think who made them, and who taught The dialect they speak, whose melodies Alone are the interpreters of thought?
12000Does a Scot of to- day love his native land less than the Campbell clansman or clan- chief in Bruce''s time?
12000How can you give it cohesion and harmony?
12000How is a man to feel and act in these new conditions?
12000How is he to regulate his hates and loves, his passions and appetites, to comply properly with these extended and complicated relationships?

20805IV THE DAREDEVIL STATESMAN What was the underlying motive in Lloyd George during those years of feverish combat?
20805In the course of one of his speeches he exclaimed,"What do my opponents really want?"
20805In the course of the discussion some one made the suggestion:"Why not offer a reward of 100 pounds for the discovery of evidence on the matter?"

20805Is it to be wondered at that he alternately bewilders, attracts, and dominates high- browed intellectuals?
20805Is there not a strange similarity between this battle, which we are fighting here in Europe, and that which Lincoln fought?

20805Once he stopped at the desk of a junior sub- editor, whom he had not seen before, and said,"How long have you been with me?"
20805True, he was but one of the lesser appointments-- namely, that of president of the Board of Trade-- but was he capable of even that responsibility?
20805Was he to make a half- and- half defense of the Cabinet war policy?
20805Was he to try to explain why he had not resigned?

27580He then asked me, whether that were my resolution?

14518Again, how are we to get a strong centralized administration in the face of a powerful and hostile parliamentary representation?
14518Are the conditions of the connection between England and Ireland, as laid down in the Act of Union, incapable of improvement?
14518Are there any reasons to suppose that the condition of Ireland is such as to render the example of the Colonies applicable?
14518BY CANON MACCOLL Is it not time that the opponents of Home Rule for Ireland should define their position?
14518But how deep does Irish dislike go?
14518But who supports things as they are?
14518But why are the Irish disloyal?
14518But why is that to be flung aside under the odd name of sentimentalism, while pessimist prophesying is to be taken for gospel?
14518But will it persevere?
14518But, it is said, Scotch national sentiment is as strong as Irish, why should not a legislative union be as acceptable to Ireland as to Scotland?
14518Can any impartial man be surprised that such a measure, carried in such a manner, should have proved unsuccessful?
14518Changes are ever taking place in the growth, so to speak, of the several British possessions, but what is the result?
14518Could even Yorkshire or Lancashire be governed permanently in that way?
14518Could the two English parties, differing so profoundly from one another, combine against the third party?
14518Do they mean to go back or forward?
14518Here, again, why should we expect success in the future from a principle that has so failed in the past?
14518How has it affected the current politics of England?
14518How is Ireland to be governed on Parliamentary principles if the voice of her representatives is to be forcibly silenced or disregarded?

14518If it is"absolutely certain that his policy worked gross wrong,"what is the explanation and the defence?
14518Is all authority of course lost when it is not pushed to the extreme?
14518Is it a certain maxim that the fewer causes of discontentment are left by Government the more the subject will be inclined to resist and rebel?"
14518Is it directed against Englishmen, or against an English official system?
14518Is it not time to try some new treatment-- one which has been tried in similar cases, and always with success?
14518Is it true that no case can exist in which it is proper for the Sovereign to accede to the desires of his discontented subjects?
14518Is there anything peculiar in this case to make it a rule for itself?
14518Now I do not myself believe these things, but what else can any advocate of Home Rule say in answer to them?
14518Now, how did the Southern whites deal with this state of things?

14518Now, what was the course he took?
14518Our only guide to the probabilities of the future is our experience of the past And what has that been in Ireland?
14518Such efforts have hitherto met with no response; is it too much to hope that it will be otherwise in the year now opening?
14518The Irish members wanted it: what business had an English member to interfere to defeat their wishes, and thwart the Executive?
14518They have now been in office for eighteen months, and what do we behold?
14518Under those circumstances, what was the course taken by the thirteen States?
14518Undoubtedly it is the feeling of nationality; and what is nationality?
14518Was it a tightening of the bonds between Austria and Hungary?
14518What about the Conservative party?
14518What administration ever carried either honesty or centralization to a higher pitch than the Irish administration of Mr. Forster?
14518What are the prospects of its settlement?
14518What could be less successful?
14518What did England do?
14518What did become of them?
14518What did we do?
14518What hope is there of this?
14518What is the position which it now occupies?
14518What justification can be made for this change of front?
14518What then?
14518What was the malign power which made the boons we had conferred shrivel up,"like fairy gifts fading away"?
14518What were the considerations presented to them as supreme supervisors and guardians of the British Empire?
14518What will quiet these panic fears which we entertain of the hostile effect of a conciliatory conduct?
14518What, then, are the conclusions intended to be drawn from the foregoing premises?
14518What, then, was the position of Mr. Gladstone''s Government at the close of the election of 1885?
14518When such a scheme is proposed, can Ireland be left out of it?
14518When the Bill was introduced the question at once arose-- Should Ireland be included?
14518Where is their Bill?
14518Where was it to stop?
14518Why do we find it in a Parliament of which the constitution and the environment were alike intolerable?
14518Why should the future be different?
14518Why, it may be asked, should Lord Salisbury''s Government burn its fingers over Ireland, as so many governments have burnt their fingers before?
14518Will the operation do more harm to his constitution than the slow corrosions of a disorder grown inveterate?
14518Will the reasons and forces described above bring us to Home Rule?
14518Yet what has been the result?
14518[ 67] The question arises, What is the magnetic influence which induces communities of men to combine together in federal unions?
14518and if so, when, how, and why?
14518when will this speculating against fact and reason end?
29777Fear of what?
29777For who is Garnet that he should be called hither, or we should trouble ourselves in this Court with him?
29107In advancing their conflicting claims to the English crown, was it Elizabeth or Mary that was in the right?
29107Was it a bigoted, or only a firm and proper, attachment to her own faith, which forbade her joining in the national commemoration?
29107Why did he not send it?
29107Why would he not do it?

26067Where is Cochrane? 26067 Will you accept the appointment?
26067But shall we blame him for this?
26067Can any property be more entitled to protection than that of the owners of the soil or of the dwellings they inhabit?
26067I understand M. Koering has some in store; would your lordship be kind enough to allow me to take a hundred piques?
26067It may be asked, how is this to be effected?
26067Lord Cochrane, not yet initiated in all the depths of Greek treachery, turned in horror to General Gordon and said,"Do you hear what he says?"
26067MY LORD, May I beg leave to present to you my very particular friend, Mr. Nicolo Kalergy?
26067May I beg of you also to add a private signal by which I may know all Greek vessels at a tolerable distance by day-- also a night private signal?
26067Might I suggest the advantage that would result from using the same projectile from almost every ship?

20300Had they not permanently or temporarily deprived of power nearly half their kings who had reigned since William the Conqueror?
20300He continued,''Is he as stout?''
20300He had enjoyed an unequalled opportunity of effecting these reforms, but what were the results of his administration?
20300Henry''s sister Margaret, and both the husbands of his other sister, Mary, had procured divorces from Popes, and why not Henry himself?
20300Heresy in itself was abominable, but if heretics would maintain the royal against the papal supremacy, might not their sins be forgiven?
20300Hertford or Norfolk?
20300I said he was not; and he then inquired,''What sort of legs has he?''
20300If Ferdinand was"Catholic,"and Louis"Most Christian,"might not some title be found for a genuine friend?
20300Is conscience a luxury which only a king may enjoy in peace?
20300Is recourse necessary to a theory of supernatural agency, or is there another and adequate solution?
20300It was all very well to dispense with canons and divine laws, but to annul papal dispensations-- was that not to cheapen his own wares?
20300Should they cleave to the old, or should they embrace the new?
20300The King of France, is he as tall as I am?''
20300The party of reform or that of reaction?
20300The rest were lawyers and priests.... How came you to think that there were more noble men in our Privy Council then than now?"
20300Was Henry''s individual will of such miraculous force that he could ride roughshod in insolent pride over public opinion at home and abroad?
20300Was Mary''s legitimacy beyond question?
20300Was her succession to the English throne, a prospect Henry dangled before the Frenchman''s eyes, so secure?
20300Was the dispensation for Henry''s own marriage beyond cavil?
20300What manner of man was this, and wherein lay the secret of his( p. 004) strength?
20300What then was the meaning and use of acts of attainder?
20300What was the poor Duke to do, between his promise to Henry and the pleading of Mary?
20300What would be the effect of this terrific anathema?
20300Where shall we place the limits of conscience, and where those of the national will?
20300Who, he asked, should be Protector, in case the King died, but his father?
20300Why should he not come forward himself?
20300Why should he wish to see Henry in Guienne?
20300Why, wrote Henry to Clement, could he not dispense with human laws, if he was able to dispense with divine at pleasure?
20300Yet if these were not Wolsey''s aims, what were his motives?
20300[ 1035] If the canonised bones of martyrs could be treated thus, who would, for the future, pay respect to the Church or tribute at its shrines?
20300[ 1126] Had not James V., moreover, refused to meet him at York to discuss the questions at issue between them?
20300[ 279] But did not his services merit some more signal mark of favour?
20300[ 335] Could the most constitutional monarch have been more dutiful?
20300[ 516] If the Princess Mary succeeded, was she to marry?
20300[ 670] But what was it?
20300[ 824] But would the Pope be so accommodating as to expedite the bulls, suspecting, as he must have done, the object for which they were wanted?
20300[ 830] Was he not, moreover, withholding his assent from the Act of Annates, which would deprive the Pope of large revenues?
20300[ 834] In the face of such evidence, what motive was there for prelates and others to reject the demands which Henry was pressing upon them?

14510The fashion?
14510The flood?
14510The time of year, sorr?
14510Then he is certainly a man of substance?
14510Then you do not encourage emigration?
14510This was in connection,I asked,"with the''Plan of Campaign''and your contest here?"
14510Was he a squire of this country?
14510What are the facts?
14510What did any Parliament in Dublin ever do to gratify the one real passion of the Irish peasant-- his hunger for a bit of land? 14510 What has this Inquisitor done to you?"
14510What interest have you in my identity?
14510What regiment is that?
14510What was done with it, then?
14510What, then, causes the distress for which the name of Gweedore is a synonym?
14510When a man finds he is taking in ten shillings a day, and laying out three pounds ten, what can he do but pull up pretty short?
14510When we came to a place, and the people were all out crying and cheering, he would whisper to me,''Now what is the name of this confounded hole?'' 14510 Where is this old woman?"
14510Why did the League do this?
14510Why is this?
14510Why not manure the land?
14510Why not photograph this''hale and hearty woman of fifty,''with her son of fifty- three?
14510Why not? 14510 Why should they?"
14510Why? 14510 Would a processional funeral be allowed for him?"
14510Would it be possible for me to see her?
14510Would n''t you like Dublin as well?
14510A peasant looking him carefully over at Cork whispered to a neighbour,"And is he really of the ould blood of the Irish kings now, indeed?"
14510A sergeant of police walked up as the train was about to start, and asked--"Are you not Father M''Fadden of Gweedore?"
14510And can it for a moment be believed that Mr. Parnell, or any one of his Parliamentary associates, would do this?
14510And what was the upshot of it?
14510And why?
14510But did you ever know her?
14510But is n''t the question, Whether the tenants have earned this sum, such as it is, out of the land let to them by Captain Hill?"
14510But what''s the use?
14510Did n''t Parnell vote at first against religion and in favour of Bradlaugh?
14510Did we not think it very pretty?
14510Do you suppose they will like to see the lawyers and the politicians organising a labour agitation against the''strong farmers''?
14510Have you heard of the champagne?"
14510He took it to better himself, and"how did he injure Carroll by taking it?"
14510His eyes glowed as he exclaimed,"Can you imagine that they refused me bail, when bail had been allowed to such a felon as Arthur Orton?
14510I asked him what he specially objected to in the recent action of Parliament as respects Ireland?
14510I asked, with some natural astonishment;"the flood?
14510I asked;"is it because of the time of the year they select?"
14510I, asked,"even although the people can not earn their living from the soil?"
14510If this be true of Great Britain and Ireland, where no allodial tenure exists, how much more true must it be of New York?
14510Is Bunbeg''boycotted''?"
14510Is it possible to doubt which of the two is the government of Liberty, as well as the government of Law?
14510Is this a case of the sons of the soil expropriated by an alien and confiscating Government to enrich a ruthless invader?
14510Out of what funds?"
14510Parnell?"
14510Parnell?"
14510Suppose they earn the rent in Scotland, or England, or Tyrone, or wherever you like, the question is, What do they get for it from Captain Hill?
14510The Colonel judiciously handed the man a dollar, and then asked,"Pray, how do you feel when you feel confoundedly patriotic?"
14510Was he a rent- warner?
14510Was he in favour, then, of Mr. Davitt''s plan of Land Nationalisation?
14510Was it the skull of a patriot or of a policeman?
14510Was the Archbishop wrong, therefore, in his estimate of the situation in 1868?
14510What flood?"
14510When I observed that Dublin must have a short memory to forget so soon the face of a Chief Secretary, he replied:"Forget his face?
14510When were these things made, and by what people?
14510Why should I have been locked up over two Sundays, for ten days, when I offered to pledge my honour to appear?"
14510Why should the Italian Revolutionists of 1848 be judged by one standard and the Irish Revolutionists of 1888 by another?
14510Would not''martial law,''if applied to that particular spot, suffice to stamp out, these- insensate pests of society?"
14510Would she like to go to America?
14510Would they get that from a Parliament in Dublin?
14510Yet the North would not suffer the South to do this-- and what would become of India if England turned it over in fragments to the native races?
14510You may ask, How will that be done?
14510You will mind the water that comes down behind the chapel?
14510and did n''t he do this to force the bargain for the clerical franchise at the Parliamentary conventions?"
14510and what for would there be?
14510and what is her connection with the cases of boycotting last week tried?"
14510of a"White- boy"or of a"landlord"?
30205Well,said Mr. Bradlaugh, keeping quite cool,"what do you say to the Archbishop of Canterbury?"
30205What is that to your life?
30205How many survivors are there of the friends who filled that dingy old court at Westminster where he argued before a full bench of judges in 1869?
30205I could release him from danger with half a dozen words, and why should I hesitate to say them or he to exact them?
30205Lord Coleridge did not say, but he_ looked_--"Have you no sense of decency?"
30205Lord Coleridge replied in a low, suggestive tone,"Do you think it necessary?"
30205On his right was the door communicating with his bedroom facing him the door opening on the passage, and on his right(?
30205While we were waiting for the jury''s verdict he referred to the article, and guessing my need he said,"Shall I give you the guinea now?"
30167And you will?
30167Are you ill, Hubert?
30167Have you the heart?
30167How so?
30167Is my son in danger of his life?
30167So you are to put out my eyes with hot irons?
30167We have beaten the Danes,they said,"and everyone is asking where is King Alfred?
30167Is it my fault that I was Geoffrey''s son?
30167O when shall Englishmen With such acts fill a pen, Or England breed again Such a King Harry?
30167Will you put out my eyes-- those eyes that never did, nor never shall, so much as frown on you?"
28742But do the words imply more than the obvious contrast between being indoors and in the open air, as regards noise?
28742But where is our"lynn"?
28742Can it be commemorated in the name of the Guildhall which then fronted Aldermanbury?
28742Did we give these lands to you?''
28742Had the white linen coif worn by sergeants the same symbolical meaning as the Templars''white mantle?
28742Is this compatible with the survival of a Roman constitution?
28742THE ARMS OF THE CITY AND SEE OF LONDON BY J. TAVENOR- PERRY"Is this a dagger that I see before me?"
28742Was it, as some say, the survival of a linen headdress brought back by the Templars from the East?

13351The question for the House to consider is,''Do these charges, if admitted, contain criminal matter for the consideration of the House?'' 13351 And did they not under that pretence avoid proceeding to adjudication? 13351 And if, after all, they are brought to trial, are not their judges composed of the natives of a nation with whom they are at war? 13351 And in effect, were not these successive pretences calculated to operate as invitations to invasions? 13351 Are not our manufactures in the most distressed state?
13351Are not sailors starving?
13351Are not vessels seen everywhere with brooms at their mastheads?
13351But ask, what native of this country can help wishing that such a man were again amongst us?
13351But with whom, I put it to your excellency, has good faith been kept?
13351Can any one imagine a more gallant action than the cutting out of the_ Esmeralda_ from Callao?
13351Can anything be more contrary to justice, to good faith, to common sense, or to sound policy?
13351Can it be denied that the treatment to which the officers are exposed is in the highest degree cruel and unjust?
13351Can it be denied that war was regularly declared between the two nations?
13351Can your excellency perceive either justice or decency in these decrees?
13351Could it be pretended that it was peace which had occasioned the fall in the value of all agricultural produce?
13351Does the country know of this injustice?
13351Has a corps of marine artillery been formed and taught their duty?
13351Has any remuneration been offered to the navy for these sacrifices, of which ministers were duly informed by my official despatches?
13351Have not the consequences been a wanton and shameful waste of property by decay and plunder?
13351Have the laws been revised to adapt them to the better government of the service?
13351Have they not in many instances been confined in a fortress or prison- ship without being told who is their accuser or what is the accusation?
13351Have young gentlemen intended for officers been sent on board to learn their profession?
13351Have young men been enlisted and sent on board to be bred up as seamen?
13351Is it possible that English, or other foreign officers in the service, can be satisfied with such a system?
13351Is not agriculture languishing?
13351Is this justice?
13351Is this the treatment which the officers of the navy deserve at the hands of those who call themselves his Majesty''s Government?

13351The question was, then, ought their resolutions to go forth to the public with a falsehood upon the face of them?
13351Was it either honest to the squadron or faithful to the country?
13351Was it founded in common sense, or on any rational precedent, or indeed any precedent whatever?
13351Was it not calculated to prevent the squadron from ever again assailing an invading enemy, or again expelling him from the shores of the empire?
13351Was not this pretence a false one, or is it one of those well- founded causes of difficulty to which your excellency alludes?
13351Was such a course fair towards those illustrious individuals?
13351Were they prepared to make up this enormous deficiency?
13351What would they say, were the Protector to refuse to pay the expense of that expedition which placed him in his present elevated situation?
13351Why, for instance, is there that indifference in regard to the clothing of the men?

20430Does the law of kindness touch us in our municipal work?

20430Have we such a perpetual spring within us, ready and accessible for use in our home lives?
20430How are we, then-- that comes to be the last question-- how are we to attain this wonderful gift, the secret of a strong character?
20430How can we help him, that poor wounded man brought across our path?

20430What are we to say to anyone we see who is under that most terrible trial?
20430What are we to say to ourselves if such a misfortune and trial comes to us?
20430What can we say to light up in any degree so vast a problem?

13926How much are our best laid schemes defective?
13926I asked a gentleman of knowledge, if there was a probability of the delphs failing?
13926If a man sells me an article cheaper than I can purchase it elsewhere, whether it is of consequence to me what are his profits?
13926If a smile in the house of religion, or of mourning, be absurd, is there any reason to expel it from those places where it is not?

13926If we discharge the poor, who shall act the laborious part?
13926If we keep the disorderly till they have reimbursed the parish, whether we do not acquire an inheritance for life?
13926If you ask, what fortune Baskerville ought to have been rewarded with?
13926If you farther ask, what he possessed?

13926Is merit, like a flower of the field, too common to attract notice?
13926Is there not as much reason to punish my neighbour for differing in opinion from me, as to punish me, because I differ from him?
13926It is easy to describe his fears before publication, but who can tell his feelings after judgment is passed upon his works?
13926It is no disgrace to a man that he died on the scaffold; the question is-- What brought him there?
13926It will be asked,"What portion may be allowed?"
13926Or, is there any to punish either?
13926Or, whether a man, as well as a spider, may not create a_ place_, and, like that--_fill it with himself_?
13926Pray, are you acquainted with another Roman road which crosses it?
13926Shall we esteem it the higher, because it was written at the age of thirteen?
13926Struck with the novelty, I inquired,"Whether the ladies in this country shod horses?"

13926We occupy the power to reform, without the will; why else do we suffer enormities to grow, which will have taken deep root in another age?
13926We should naturally enquire, Why Sir Harry quitted a place so delightfully situated?
13926What must be his state of mind, who is in continual apprehensions of a disgraceful discovery?
13926What must then be the feelings of a mind, susceptible of impression by nature, but weakly calloused over by art?
13926What should we think of the constable who seizes every person he meets with, for fear of missing the thief?
13926Whence is it, that we so seldom find affection subsisting between master and scholar?
13926Where then could be found the servant?
13926Whether one able canal is not preferable to two lame ones?
13926Whether provisions abound more or less?
13926Whether the grand shop at Birmingham- heath, or at any heath, will train girls for service, preferable to others?

13926Whether the trades of the town, by a considerable manufacture established at the workhouse, will not be deprived of their most useful hands?

22553I suppose,observed Ward,"you mean to present Lady---- at Brandenburg House?
22553A very intelligent field- officer the other day said very truly, in speaking of the subscribers,"what are all these_ brown_ coats about?
22553All this, you will say, may be very true, but is no excuse to you; but again I must say, what could you have done?
22553But how can it be possible for that boat, as at present manned, I will not say to weather any breeze, but to swim through the smoothest water?
22553But, again, when will it ever come to the Commons?
22553Can you fancy such folly and such profligacy?
22553Could not you get Lord Torrington''s proxy?
22553Could you not write to Sir W. Knighton, and recommend to his attention your course of regimen,& c.?
22553Did you ever hear of anything half so absurd as the conduct of the Speaker?
22553Does Lord Buckingham remain in the country?
22553Does he think that that period would be sufficient for Opposition to pass the Catholic question?
22553Ever affectionately yours, C. W. W. What will my worthy colleagues in the Empire of the East do about this_ fracas_ at Canton?
22553Ever most affectionately yours, T. G. Miss Poyntz has just refused Lord Apsley; who the deuce will she marry?
22553Ever yours, C. W. W. Have you heard that a match is declared between Lord Dartmouth and Lady Frances Talbot?
22553Have you any ground for mentioning Harrowby as a decided opponent of C----''s admission?
22553How can all this end?
22553I begged to understand from the Duke whether any partial change-- such as the introduction of Mr. Canning or Mr. Peel-- would be considered change?
22553I said,"Do you think the present supporters of Government, and the members of the Cabinet whom you may remove, would or could oppose the new Cabinet?"
22553In short, there is nothing she does not say against him-- and what do you think for?
22553Is Wellesley a man likely to submit, like some of his predecessors, to be made a cypher in his Government?
22553Is the Chancellor submissive?
22553Is there a prospect of his being able to form with us an administration strong enough to carry on the public business advantageously and creditably?
22553Must they not shut up shop?
22553Perhaps they were subsequently inserted; but why, then, was"Cognoscunt mei me,"taken out and the tablet left blank?
22553Query, whether Lady C---- will oppose or promote a match?
22553Secondly, in which part of his administration did any power of Europe take out a licence for shooting from him?
22553Shall we see you on Monday?
22553The query then is, whether we should explain our vote?
22553What can it mean?
22553What could make the Government employ Lord H----, who seems to have committed himself and employers most lamentably?
22553What do you find in the language of Government since the division?
22553What hopes, then, could a third party entertain of doing this in opposition to both?
22553What is to result from this disheartening folly?
22553When do you expect your patent will be ready?
22553Who is there that can sufficiently adopt the thoughts and feelings and taste of another, to decide for him what is best for his own happiness?
22553Who is there to conduct the House of Lords?
22553Why, then, what would be the result?
22553Will it not be advisable that you should communicate Nugent''s letter and your answer to it to be written to Liverpool?
22553Will not this make a good novel for some future Walter Scott?
22553Would it not be as well to recommend Sir E. C. to Lord Liverpool for a Treasury seat as[ well as] Phillimore?
22553and does he still cling to the Purse, or will he surrender it?
22553and if we do, what should be the nature of that explanation?
32842But how is the grass itself London grass?
2173All are agreed that parliaments should not be perpetual; the only question is, what is the most convenient time for their duration?
2173And then the question is, By the Constitution of this country, what degree of submission is due to the authoritative acts of a limited power?
2173Are they not convertible terms?
2173But has it in reality answered this purpose?
2173But, after all, is it fit that this dishonourable contention between the court and juries should subsist any longer?
2173Can we conceive a more discouraging post of duty than this?
2173Give them all they ask, and your grant is still a cheat; for how comes only a third to be their younger children''s fortune in this settlement?
2173Is Government strengthened?
2173Is Wiltshire the pampered favourite, whilst Yorkshire, like the child of the bondwoman, is turned out to the desert?
2173Is a committee of Cornwall,& c., thronged, and the others deserted?
2173Is he more rich, or more splendid, or more powerful, or more at his ease, by so many labours and contrivances?
2173Now, what does this go to, but to lead directly to anarchy?
2173On what principle is it that a jury refuses to be directed by the court as to his competence?
2173The question is, then, What is the standard of that extreme?
2173Then what has the Crown or the King profited by all this fine- wrought scheme?
2173Then what is the standard of expedience?
2173Warwick has members; is Warwick or Stafford more opulent, happy, or free, than Newcastle or than Birmingham?
2173What bounds shall be set to the freedom of that choice?
2173What does a juror say to a judge when he refuses his opinion upon a question of judicature?
2173What is the cause of this parsimony of the liberty which you dole out to the people?
2173What one symptom do we find of this inequality?
2173What sort of treaty of partition is this for those who have no inherent right to the whole?
2173Where?
2173Why all this limitation in giving blessings and benefits to mankind?
2173Why not ask another wife, other children, another body, another mind?
2173Will they change their wine for ale, because they are to get more ale three years hence?
2173Will they make fewer demands for the advantages of patronage in favours and offices, because their member is brought more under their power?
2173Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate?
2173one- third only of the legislature, of the government no share at all?
2173those which the law had prescribed?
32139And one other, entituled, An Answer to a Question that nobody thinks of, viz., What if the Queen should die?
32139But what hand had I in all this?
32139Can they justify the injury done to that person, or to any person concerned?
32139I waited on my lord the day he was displaced, and humbly asked his lordship''s direction what course I should take?
32139I would recommend it to those who would be called honest men, to consider but one thing, viz., what if it should not be true?
32139My answer is plain in my misery,"Lord, that I may receive my sight?"
32139Next to this, and with the same sincere design, I wrote two pamphlets, one entituled, What if the Pretender should come?
32139One other, entituled, And what if the Pretender should come?
32139The message was by word of mouth thus:--"Pray, ask that gentleman what I can do for him?"
32139What prince but would have submitted to have educated a successor of his race in the protestant religion for the sake of such a crown?
20016How will you do that?
20016If Ireland can prosper so well without Home Rule,so runs this line of reasoning,"why give her Home Rule at all?"
20016Were there no black centuries before 1800? 20016 You talk about the tendency to unity,"he would say,"but have we not here a clear instance of division?"
20016***** What has produced this great change in the situation since 1893?
20016***** What, then, emerges from this survey?
20016But what about her home trade?
20016But what about their remuneration?
20016But what could be more dangerous to a city like Belfast than a no- rent campaign under the guidance of English lawyers?
20016But what of Rome itself?
20016But who can doubt that it would also introduce a new element of civil power into the schools of Ireland?
20016Can any sensible man believe that there is no favour here?"
20016Could any reasonable man call that a final solution of the problem of government in a country where four- fifths of the people were Catholics?
20016Could there be a more extravagant way of governing a country?
20016Do those who reason thus ever reflect how it is that the English Catholics are often among the most formidable opponents of the Home Rule cause?
20016Does he really contend that Ireland is incapable of receiving the same liberties as we are granting to India?
20016For can we doubt that the alchemy of liberty will here, too, even in this sordid realm of finance, repeat its ancient power?
20016For instance, should the vote for Irish Constabulary be regarded as a local or Imperial charge?
20016For what would he discover?
20016HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES 77 Rome Rule_ or_ Home Rule?
20016HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES ROME RULE_ or_ HOME RULE?
20016HOME RULE IN HISTORY What is the fact of Irish history vital to our present cause?
20016Had Ireland no grievances?
20016Have we not there in this latest achievement a specimen of State authorities over- ruled by a central power?"
20016How could she get on without England?
20016How did Marlborough and Clive, Chatham and Walpole, do their great world- work with an Irish Parliament behind them?
20016How did she get her Mutiny Bill-- a limited Parliament-- a repeal of Poynings''Law-- a Constitution?
20016How has that miracle been achieved after the terrible internecine struggles of the mid- nineteenth century?
20016How has this system worked?
20016How is it that Hungary has forgotten the hangings and the butcheries of the sixties, and still works within the Austrian Empire?
20016IN OR OUT?
20016If Home Rule is so certain to be ruinous to Empire, how, we may well ask, did these rulers build up the British Empire?
20016Is it impossible that even there the binding and unifying principle of Irish life may begin to work?
20016Is it likely that Rome is so beset with anxiety to drive them across the Channel?
20016Is it not likely that it is Home Rule that will save her in the future?
20016Is it not quite obvious that these are arguments after judgment?
20016Is it possible, in short, that in Ireland alone, of all countries, freedom should mean persecution?
20016Is it, indeed, so certain that"Home Rule"would increase the power of Rome in Ireland?
20016Is not that an instance of unionism as against Home Rule?
20016Is there, indeed, a single instance in human history when the grant of civil liberty has led to the forging of religious chains?
20016It is that record that has driven Ireland into the arms of Rome, and who can wonder?
20016May we not be sure that Home Rule, instead of strengthening this evil tendency, will weaken it?
20016Might he not even, if he were a shrewd man, suspect that that was the very object and aim which his informants had in view?
20016Might not Belfast, in that case, be able not merely to enrich her merchants but to raise the social conditions of her own people?
20016Now, what does this amount to?
20016Or Irish judges, or even Irish poverty?
20016ROME AND HOME RULE What is the moral of all this?
20016That the people who use them are merely seeking excuses for refusing Home Rule altogether and at all seasons?
20016Thus:--_ Quebec_-- Catholics 1,429,000 Protestants 189,000_ Ontario_-- Protestants 1,626,000 Catholics 390,000 How is this problem solved?
20016What about the five of Home Rule?
20016What are the general outlines of this great measure?
20016What did Ireland ever ask that was granted?
20016What did she ever demand that was not refused?
20016What do they show?
20016What do they signify?
20016What does this new prosperity amount to?
20016What evidence could you have more convincing, what witnesses more eloquent?
20016What is the present position in regard to Irish finance?
20016What is to happen if the two Irish Chambers differ?
20016What of the''curse of Cromwell,''the broken''Treaty of Limerick,''and the penal laws?"
20016What then is it?
20016What would happen in that case?
20016What, then, are the lines that should be followed if we are to go forward to that goal?
20016What, then, is the present Parliamentary relationship between Irish Home Rule and the Federal idea?
20016Where is the evidence of the Orangemen in their strongholds meting out similar measure to the Catholics?
20016Why are the English Catholics so often opposed to Home Rule?
20016Why is it that these laws proved intolerable in Ireland, and have yet survived up to the present moment in England?
20016Will the clouds return, or is this improvement to be sure and lasting?
20016Will you give £20,000,000 to the Irish?"
20016[ 11] Are we to say that trust and tolerance are German virtues, unknown to the British people?
20016[ 32] For the governing clauses of that Act see Appendix E.[ 33] May not the Insurance Act do the same?
20016[ 44] What follows from all this?
20016[ 71] The powers of these Legislative Councils are still very limited; but who can doubt that they will increase?
20016[ 74] Why is this?
27553Is it true, Lord John, that you hold that a subject is justified, under certain circumstances, in disobeying his Sovereign''s will?
27553''Every creature one meets asks,"What is said now?
27553''Then Lord John said that of course he should try to help Lord Aberdeen: but how?
27553''Tom Baring said to me last night,''Greville remarks,''"Ca n''t you make room for Disraeli in this Coalition Government?"
27553''Why do you call him poor?''
27553''[ 23][ Sidenote: UNDER WHICH FLAG?]
27553Can the Liberal policy of Lord John square with the restrictive policy of Lord Aberdeen?
27553Easy travelling, books in plenty, living cheap and tolerably good-- what can a man wish for but a little grace and good taste in dress amongst women?
27553He asked, how was it possible to resist the attack on the Irish Church and the Irish Union after the surrender of the Corn Laws?
27553He then said,"You can have no objection to consult Lord John Russell?"
27553How can we attack a line thus linked and supported?''
27553How will it go?
27553I said:"Why, will you give him to us?"
27553Is it possible that this arrangement should prosper?
27553Right through the length and breadth of the kingdom his words were caught up, and from hundreds of platforms came the question,''Reform: Aye or No?''
27553Shall we advise the suspension of that law for a limited period?
27553Shall we resolve to maintain the existing Corn Law?
27553Shall we undertake without suspension to modify the existing Corn Law?
27553That is, perhaps, open to dispute, but the question remains: Was he mistaken in principle?
27553Twelve months before, the cry in the country had been,''What will the Lords do?''
27553Was it decent, asked Cowper in his famous''Expostulation,''thus-- To make the symbols of atoning grace An office- key, a pick- lock to a place?
27553What do you think?"
27553What is the last news?
27553Who can say where its course should stop?
27553but now an altogether different question was on men''s lips,''What must be done with the Lords?''
27553who can stay its speed?
28433Am I your servant,he demanded,"or am I your king?
28433And what do they want?
28433From whom?
28433How can we,said the French counselors,"give a Princess of France in marriage to our worst and bitterest enemy?"
28433How is this?
28433Is he unhorsed or wounded?
28433Is my son killed?
28433Lord Douglas?
28433What business is it of yours, villainous knave, whether we laugh at him or not?
28433What business is that of yours?
28433What have you to do with it?
28433What is it to us?
28433What right have you to intermeddle? 28433 Where is the captain of this garrison?"
28433Where is the prince?
28433Who comes here?
28433A moment afterward he turned to one of the chief officers present and addressed him, saying,"My lord, what is my age at the present time?"
28433And that which is permitted by law to every other person, of however mean degree, why is it denied to me?"
28433And what do you intend to do with me?"
28433And what right had his father to do these things?
28433And what right have they to hold us in this miserable bondage?
28433Are we not all descended from the same parents, Adam and Eve?
28433How comes it that you dare to deck yourself out in this way in your master''s armor?
28433The king was much pleased to hear the sound of his own language, and he called out,"To whom shall I surrender?
28433What is it to you?"
28433What right had the first man to assume this power, and how did he get possession of it?
28433What right have one set of men to make another set their slaves?
28433What right have they to compel us to toil all our lives to earn money, that they may live at ease and spend it?
28433Who are you?"
28433You here?"
28433said the mayor,"how dare you utter such threats as those?"
18020I wonder your Majesty,says she,"can have the patience to sit so long a- dressing?"
18020''And what do you give her?''
18020''Are you mad?''
18020''But how is it,''she asked,''that you do not even keep a footman, and that one of the common runners in the street lights you home with a link?''
18020''Chevalier de Grammont,''they said,''have you forgotten nothing in London?''
18020''Come hither, young man,''said the Benchers, coolly:''Whereunto this deficit?''
18020''Could you recommend a tailor?''
18020''Do n''t you know, Count, you_ can not_ win?''
18020''Does he indeed?
18020''What is the matter?''
18020''Why?''
18020''You hope to see me hanged first, do you?''
18020And now, before we proceed, let us ask who worthy Samuel Pepys was, that he should pass such stringent comments on men and manners?
18020Are you not ashamed, Amalie, to laugh?
18020Boswell:''Did you find, sir, his conversation to be of a superior sort?''
18020But could we be pardoned for putting these works into the hands of''sweet seventeen,''or making Christmas presents of them to our boys?
18020But how could a person of that persuasion be so strict, so strait- laced?
18020But who comes here?
18020Can any one explain it?
18020Could anything have taken away the expression of his half- sleepy, half- merry eyes?
18020Did you mark the airs with which he came into my drawing- room in the morning?
18020Do people read Theodore Hook much nowadays?
18020Do the students of Mr. Rudyard Kipling know anything of"Gilbert Gurney?"
18020Do those who have laughed over"The Wrong Box,"ever laugh over Jack Brag?
18020Gibson,''writes Lord Arran,''asked him if he had made a will, or if he would declare who was to be his heir?
18020Had he not broken a hundred hearts already?
18020He could expect little else, for had he not actually taken up arms against his sovereign?
18020How soon would you have them placed at school?
18020I often succeeded: but why?
18020Is a beau a fool?
18020Is a sharper a fool?
18020Is it some new species of bird, thus covered with feathers and down?
18020Nash in masquerade?''
18020Now, will any kind reader oblige me with a derivation of the word''Club?''
18020One day being asked at dinner if he would take some beef, he is reported to have answered,''Beef?
18020Paris, therefore, Versailles, Fontainbleau, and St. Germains were closed against this gay Chevalier; and how could he live elsewhere?
18020Purcel, my angel, shall I not have a little breakfast?
18020Purcel._ What would your Majesty please to have?
18020Seulement pour un sot voyage avec ce petit mousse, eh bien?
18020Shall parts so various aim at nothing new?
18020Supposing he takes it into his head that he is being cheated?
18020That antechamber was crowded with persons who, as the prelate left the chamber of death, crowded around, eagerly asking,''Has the queen received?''
18020Then Boswell asked,''what is a friend?''
18020Thus on one occasion an Irish toady invited him to dinner: the duke talked of his wardrobe, then sadly defective; what suit should he wear?
18020Was Bonaparte a fool?
18020Was Brummell a whit more contemptible than''Wales?''
18020Was it, as the world believed, either''that she had reasoned herself into a very low and cold assent to Christianity?''
18020What could a well- disposed, handsome youth do to keep body and, not soul, but clothes together?
18020What could he do?
18020What is the meaning of these roars of laughter that greet the last mask who runs into the market- place?
18020What is this thing?
18020What right, then, has your beau to a place among wits?
18020What was he fit for?

14415to which John promptly replied"Golgotha,"and"Who founded University College?"
14415where are they?"

18253_ Whether she knew Iohan a Style?_] His Lordship''s introduction of this apocryphal legal personage on such an occasion is very amusing.
18253And how she knew them to be such as she named?
18253Are Mr. Robinsons dogges turn''d tykes with a wanion?
18253Art mine or no?
18253Being demaunded further by his Lordship, Whether she knew_ Iohan a Style_?
18253Come, where''s the sacrifice?
18253Hast thou made any contract with that fiend, The enemy of mankind?
18253How she knew them?
18253In the end being examined by my Lord,[P2_a_1] Whether she knew them that were there by their faces, if she saw them?
18253May the thing call''d Familiar be purchased?
18253My soul and body?
18253Oh-- Resolve me, how far doth that contract stretch?
18253Prithee, Robin, Lay me to myself open; what art thou, Or this new transform''d creature?
18253Prithee, tell me,( For now I can believe) art thou a witch?
18253Prithee, woman, Art thou a witch?
18253The devil is no liar to such as he loves-- Didst ever know or hear the devil a liar To such as he affects?
18253This was his pet delusion-- almost the only one he cared not to discard-- like the dying miser''s last reserve:------"My manor, sir?
18253To whom this Examinate said, What are they doing?
18253What can be more atrocious than the whole story, which is yet but the common story of witch confessions?
18253What can exceed the force and graphic truth, the searching wit and sarcasm, of the picture he sketches in 1605?
18253What is the name?
18253What is there, indeed, unlike truth in that wonderful fiction?]
18253What makest thou upon my ground?
18253What were the names of any of them?
18253What, or where am I, To be thus lost in wonder?
18253Whereunto the said Spirit said, They are making three pictures: whereupon shee asked, whose pictures they were?
18253Wherevpon this Examinat demaunded his name?
18253Which of you that dwelleth neare them in Crauen but can and will witnesse it?
18253Who did not condemne these Women vpon this euidence, and hold them guiltie of this so foule and horrible murder?
18253Who so fit to have the book dedicated to him as one who had acted so conspicuous a part on the memorable occasion at Westminster?
18253Why wilt not kill him?
18253With respect to this old story of the magical use made of the corpses of infants, Ben Jonson, in a note on"I had a dagger: what did I with that?
18253_ Banks._ Say''st thou me so, hag?
18253_ Bell._ Canst thou show us to any house where we may have Shelter and Lodging to night?
18253_ Bell._ My Mistresses Father, Luck if it be thy will, have at my_ Isabella_, Canst thou guide us thither?

18253_ Boy._ But Gammer what do you meane to do with me Now you have me?
18253_ Boy._ But it was in a quarrelsome way; Whereupon I was as stout, and ask''d him who made him an examiner?

18253_ Saw._ May I believe thee?
18253_ Saw._ Then I am thine; at least so much of me As I can call mine own--_ Dog._ Equivocations?

18253to whom this Examinate said, What canst thou do at him?
18253what art thou?
18253where, and by what art learn''d, What spells, what charms or invocations?
18253whereunto the said Spirit said; they are making three Pictures: whereupon she asked whose pictures they were?
18253why should the envious world Throw all their scandalous malice upon me?
29787For what king?
29787For whom are you?
29787Hang him? 29787 Is_ must_ a word to be addressed to princes?
29787What should I do with him?
29787--''Well, then,''quod Maister More,''how say you in this matter?
29787And shall Trelawney die?
29787And why ye gods should two and two make four?''
29787From the dry soil who bade the waters flow?...
29787Is any sick?
29787Is there a variance?
29787Norwich also contains an enormous brewery, but in this the city is not singular, for what is a Briton without his beer?
29787Oh say what sums that generous hand supply, What mines to swell that boundless charity?
29787The earl asked,"When would you have me go?"
29787The earl replied,"What do you mean?
29787The memory of the great architect is marked by a marble slab, with the inscription,"Reader, do you ask his monument?
29787Then said Smith,"Doth your lordship know any friend or servant that would do the thing your lordship knows of?
29787What think ye to be the cause of these shelfs and flattes that stop up Sandwich Haven?''
29787Who has not heard of the charming rocks and hanging woods of Cliefden, with the Duke of Westminster''s mansion standing on their pinnacle?
29787Who taught that heaven- directed spire to rise?
29787Whose causeway parts the vale with shady rows?
29787Whose seats the weary traveller repose?
29787is this Gloucester new bridge?''
29787to cut off my head?"
34108Do they contain an occasion for the humiliation of Carthage?
34108Of all succeeding events he asks but one thing; will they or will they not hurt England?
34108What is one amongst so many, it may be asked?
33042And what remains?
33042Of course it has a story: what similar romantic spot has not?
33042What are their foolish concert- rooms, if they come, as they would fain be thought to do, to listen to the music of the waves?
33042Where are thy river, harbour, and the docks In which the navy of Old England lay?
33042Why is it there is such an attraction about Rye?
33042Why should the very mention of the name conjure up such haunting memories of the past?
33042Why will men and women travel half across the world to see these crooked streets once more?
30082Did you catch any trout?
30082He is, is he?
30082Him? 30082 How can one catch''em?
30082My, ai n''t they glad about themselves.... And is n''t he the one fine scout?
30082What did he say to us? 30082 Who else would it be?"
30082Why Hungry Hill?
30082After ten minutes of this an automobile driver strolled over from a car and asked"what was doing now?"
30082An onlooker pointed to the blackboard, and cried:"What about that?
30082And had n''t I found the East a strange place, inhabited by people not easy to get on with, and removed from the British tradition-- and so on...?
30082And in the West?
30082And the agriculturist is to come from where?
30082Does n''t he want to be friends?
30082I stood on the station with a man old but still active, and he said to me:"Do you see that block of buildings over there?
30082I wonder whether there was ever an inside of a day so crowded?
30082Immediately there were yells,"What is he, Bull or Bear?"
30082Lumbermen in calf- high boots grinned"How do, Prince?"
30082Need I say the Prince did_ not_ appear?
30082Oh, we were all foolish then, how could we tell that Winnipeg was going to grow?
30082The American on his side is baffled by the British habit of keeping things back, and he, too, perhaps wonders why this fellow is going slow with me?
30082The best description of Mr. Beatty lies in the first question one wants to ask him, which is,"Are you any relation to the Admiral?"
30082Was Canada speaking in the accents of revolt?
30082What is his game?
30082What part will it play tomorrow?
30082What''s it all about, anyhow?
30082What''s the use of this funny old business?"
30082Who-- you ca n''t mean the Prince?
30082Yes, we teach it in French, but what does that matter?
32286How chearfully would they exert all their remaining Strength, in hopes of being speedily supplied with all the Necessaries their Distresses required?
32286In these Circumstances, what Transports of Pleasure would the Sight of a_ British_ Fleet inspire?
32286Reflect, my Lord,( for your Country can never forget) what a long Succescession of dreadful Consequences this Loss must extend to Futurity?
32286What Danger could there be in attempting to land?
32286What Fleets of Convoys must be engaged for our Defence, which might otherwise be employed to the Annoyance of the Enemy?
32286What Hesitation could there be about the Expediency of it?
32286What Losses did he receive, but that of a Timber- head?
32286What Motives of an opposite Nature could sway with such weighty Considerations?
32286What Profit can attend that Commerce, which must always be liable to irretrievable Losses?
32286What Sums can insure the Return of our Ships, exposed, as they must constantly be, to the Capture of our Enemies?
32286What additional Expences must the Protection of our Trade require, when thus deprived of its Guardian?
32286What can make us a Recompence for what we have lost?
32286What noble Efforts must they make, when they saw a fresh Reinforcement of Men flying as swift as possible to their Assistance?
32286Where was the Spirit of Resolution and Enterprize worthy of a_ British_ Commander?
32286Who could have objected to you the Disobedience of Orders then, if they acquit you now?
32286could deliberate a Moment, whether they should help their Friends, or abandon them to Destruction?
30390''He do n''t shy, does he?'' 30390 They come and ask what such a room is called... write it down; admire a cabbage or a lobster in a market piece( picture?
30390You know it?
30390And to what have these old- world splendours given place?
30390Bouverie Street( is this, by the way, a corruption or a variant of the Dutch word_ Bouerie_ which New Yorkers know so well?
30390But the party for the night following?
30390Canning, in imitation of Southey, recounts it thus in verse:"... Dost thou ask her crime?
30390Directory?
30390How do the poor live who rise in the morning without a penny in their pockets?
30390How do they manage to sell their labour before they can earn the means of appeasing hunger?
30390Is''t nine o''clock?__ Then fetch a pint of port.
30390On the other hand, where would one find in reality such names as Quilp, Cheeryble, Twist, Swiveller, Heep, Tulkinghorn, or Snodgrass?
30390Or to bring it directly home to Dickens, the following quotation will serve:"''You do n''t mean to say he was"burked,"Sam?''
30390Poor antique architecture-- what is it doing in such a climate?"
30390Was not Taylor--"the water poet"--the Prince of Thames Watermen?"
30390What are the contrivances on which they hit to carry on their humble traffic?
30390What can they possibly do in these catacombs?
30390What wonder then that the fascination of riverside London fell early upon the writer of novels?
30390When Mrs. Gamp relieved Betsy in the sick- room, the following dialogue occurred:"''Anything to tell afore you goes, my dear?''
30390Which gladsome(?)
30390Why not, as a writer of the day expressed it, measure from the G. P. O.?
30390You will ask Mac, and why not his sister?
30390_ Cowper._"What is London?"
30390who''s to drive?
1265Certainly,said the Regent;"Georgina?"
1265Do, ma''am? 1265 Do, ma''am?
1265Has Mr. Childers ascertained anything on the subject of the beards?
1265Has your Majesty been riding today?
1265Has your Majesty got a nice horse?
1265I should like to know,she exclaimed in triumphant scorn,"if they mean to give the Ladies seats in Parliament?"
1265Is Sir Robert so weak,she asked,"that even the Ladies must be of his opinion?"
1265Or Elizabeth?
1265The Mistress of the Robes and the Ladies of the Bedchamber?
1265What am I to do if Lord Melbourne comes up to me?
1265What is your favourite tune? 1265 What''s that you''re drinking, sir?"
1265Who is there?
1265Who is there?
1265Who the devil is to take out the maid of honour?
1265Why did n''t she send for the butler?
1265Why do n''t you drink wine? 1265 Your sister, Lady Frances Egerton, rides, I think, does n''t she?"
1265A second Gloriana, did he call her?
1265After all, what else could she do?
1265Albert threw up his hands in shocked amazement: what could one do with such a man?
1265Albert was of course delighted, and his merriment at the family gathering was more pronounced than ever: and yet... what was there that was wrong?
1265An anonymous pamphlet entitled"What does she do with it?"
1265And was he going to allow himself, his wife, his family, his whole existence, to be governed by Baroness Lehzen?
1265And why should they not last?
1265And yet-- why was it-- all was not well with him?
1265And, if the gentle virtue of an inward excellence availed so little, could he expect more from the hard ways of skill and force?
1265But had the Baron no misgivings?
1265But how could he choose the right person?
1265But the English Government appeared to adopt a neutral attitude; it was too bad; not to be for him was to be against him, could they not see that?
1265But then-- supposing Palmerston refused to go?
1265But what could she do?
1265But what did Lord Palmerston care?
1265But why should it have been?
1265But would all go well??
1265But would all go well??
1265But, indeed, why should there be any question of resisting?
1265But, though the Prince might be dead, had he not left a vicegerent behind him?
1265Could he believe, in his blind arrogance, that even his ignominious dismissal from office was something that could be brushed aside?
1265Did Lord Palmerston forget that she was Queen of England?
1265Did he never wonder whether, perhaps, he might have accomplished not too little but too much?
1265Did he possess the magic bridle which would curb that fiery steed?
1265Did he smile as he wrote the words?
1265Did she not understand that the consort of a constitutional sovereign must not be frivolous?
1265Did she wonder in her heart of hearts how the Deity could have dared?
1265Greville?"
1265Had he not asked Albert to succeed him as commander- in- chief?
1265Had he not been a supporter of good Sir Robert?
1265Had he, possibly, gone too far?
1265Had not Sir James Clark assured her that all would be well?
1265Had she really once loved London and late hours and dissipation?
1265Had she won?
1265Had the Prince forgotten the noble aims to which his life was to be devoted?
1265He had run through everything, and yet-- if Peel went out, he might be sent for-- why not?
1265His colleagues observed another symptom-- was it of his irresponsibility or his wisdom?
1265How could she ever have dreamt of setting up her will against his wisdom, her ignorance against his knowledge, her fancies against his perfect taste?
1265How could she tolerate a state of affairs in which despatches written in her name were sent abroad without her approval or even her knowledge?
1265How could they have guessed that he had spent the night before diligently getting up the details of their case?
1265How much does the bucket understand the well?
1265Humanity and fallibility are infectious things; was it possible that Lehzen''s prim pupil had caught them?
1265IV Words and books may be ambiguous memorials; but who can misinterpret the visible solidity of bronze and stone?
1265No doubt; but was that all?
1265Of a boy with such a record, what else could be supposed?
1265She was Queen of England, and was not that enough?
1265Six years before, what would she have said, if a prophet had told her that the day would come when she would be horrified by the triumph of the Whigs?
1265Some absolute, some ineffable sympathy?
1265Some extraordinary, some sublime success?
1265That she was beginning to listen to siren voices?
1265That the secret impulses of self- expression, of self- indulgence even, were mastering her life?
1265The Prince was interested in foreign affairs?
1265The excuse was worse than the fault: was he the wife and she the husband?
1265The factory children?
1265The purest intentions and the justest desires?
1265There were very good reasons for keeping the Irish in their places; but what had that to do with it?
1265They could hardly believe it; was it possible that they had made a mistake, and that Albert was a good fellow after all?
1265Those functions and powers had become, in effect, his; and what sort of use was he making of them?
1265To bully the Queen, to order her about, to reprimand her-- who could dream of venturing upon such audacities?
1265Was England herself at his feet?
1265Was a statue or an institution to be preferred?
1265Was it possible, then, that all was over?
1265Was it possible?
1265Was not such a course of conduct, far from being a temptation, simply"selon les regles?"
1265Was she, indeed, about to see Lord M. for the last time?
1265Was there not a foreigner in the highest of high places, a foreigner whose hostility to their own adored champion was unrelenting and unconcealed?
1265Well, she would make an effort..."But what am I to do if Victoria asks me to shake hands with Lehzen?"
1265What benefits, it was asked, did the nation reap to counterbalance the enormous sums which were expended upon the Sovereign?
1265What did Lord M. think?
1265What did Palmerston know of economics, of science, of history?
1265What did he care for morality and education?
1265What did the jury mean, she asked, by saying that Maclean was not guilty?
1265What had she to do with empty shows and vain enjoyments?
1265What had she to look forward to in England?
1265What indeed?
1265What is the distinction between happiness that is real and happiness that is felt?
1265What nobler end could a man scheme for?
1265What possible place could there be for enjoyment in the existence of a Prince of Wales?
1265What shall we say if Canada, Malta, etc., begin to trouble us?
1265What was it?
1265What was to be done?
1265What were royal marriages for, if they did not enable sovereigns, in spite of the hindrances of constitutions, to control foreign politics?
1265Where was all this to end?
1265Where was this to end?
1265Who COULD appreciate him in England?
1265Who could keep such a communication secret?
1265Who was there who appreciated him, really and truly?
1265Who would they be?
1265Why had she embarked on this hazardous experiment?
1265Why had she not been contented with Lord M.?
1265Why should he?
1265Why should not the Duke of Kent look forward to an equal sum?
1265Why should she remain in a foreign country, among strangers, whose language she could not speak, whose customs she could not understand?
1265Why should she?
1265Why?
1265Would the world never understand?
1265You did n''t expect that, did you?"
1265for ME and others, this is changed, and I KNOW WHAT REAL HAPPINESS IS-- V. R."How did she know?
1265he exclaimed to Mr. Creevey,"d''ye know what his sisters call him?
1265in this our life what are the certainties?
1265said Sir Robert,"does your Majesty mean to retain them all?"
27704But do they see and feel this, and are any pains taken to impress them with it?
27704But if it is, what officer have we to oppose to the domestic and external enemies whom we should in such case have to meet?
27704But who shall regulate this classing?
27704But why are these exertions to be reserved for any other situation of things?
27704Can he cypher?
27704Did you ever promote one Alexander Gammach, tide- waiter at Belfast?
27704Do you advertize the meeting in the London papers?
27704Do you think it is possible to get them from the Militia?
27704Does he understand German,& c.?
27704For what satisfaction or honour could he receive from it?
27704Have you a copy?
27704Have you got Wiebeking''s map of Holland and Utrecht?
27704Have you seen my Prince?
27704He is asked what hopes he entertains of the King''s recovery?
27704He is asked with respect to his own experience,& c.?
27704Hobart has asked me whether Fitzgibbon''s coming over would not be of use to him?
27704How long it will be before the_ dà © nouement_, and what that_ dà © nouement_ will be, and what the piece, who shall say?
27704I have a clerkship vacant in my office: can it be made useful to any object of yours?
27704Is it not wonderful that such great talents should be conducted with so little judgment?
27704Possibly, if we have peace, that may leave us more at liberty to act in that quarter; but even then, what force have we?
27704Shall I attend it or not?
27704The next is whether it is possible for him to undertake the Government without insisting on the removal of Fitzgibbon?
27704What course should be taken in the event of such an Address being carried?
27704What do you conjecture may be the probable duration of his complaint?
27704What do you think of Robespierre''s death?
27704What have you done about our meeting?
27704What hopes do you entertain of his recovery?
27704What think of Sir John Aubrey, rat?
27704When are we likely to meet?
27704When will they have Berlin?
27704Whether the King is now incapable of attending to business?
27704and how conciliate the jarring interests of great men?
27704and how?
27704and why are we to pay them a million and a half, rather than put them to the full extent of all their own exertions and resources?
34867True to the dream of fancy, Ocean has His darker tints; but where''s the element That chequers not its usefulness to man With casual terror?
34867_ Gloster._--Dost thou know Dover? 16519 But was Vaughan ever in political life?"
16519Did this,he used to ask,"portend that I should grow up a philosopher or a_ gourmand_?
16519Do n''t you remember me?
16519How long did he sit?
16519Is his name Aulif?
16519Surely we''ve had a vote for ever so long? 16519 The Reform Bill?
16519The Speaker''s Conference? 16519 What have those two fellows in common?"
16519What vote?
16519Why could n''t that old windbag have stuck to Greenwich?
16519And here the reader has a right to ask, What manner of man is he whose career you have been trying to record?
16519And to what are we to attribute it?
16519And what of the Pacificists?
16519And, finally, what of home?
16519Are the perpetrators of those actions to go unpunished?
16519Are they to retain their honours and emoluments, the confidence of their Sovereign, and the approbation of his Ministers?
16519Are we to abjure the doctrine which wrought this change, and give heed to the blind guides who would lure us straight back to barbarism?
16519But how are these and similar boons to be attained?
16519But how could he urge others to join the Army while he, a young man not disqualified for military service, remained at home in safety?
16519But is there not a remnant?
16519But what about the tyranny of capital?
16519Can nothing be done to supplement their elementary knowledge, to stimulate and discipline their mental powers?
16519Can we not trace something of this dread in Lord Lansdowne''s much- canvassed letter?
16519Could he be a Jesuit in disguise?
16519Did they laudably decline the responsibility of opposing a Government which is conducting a great war?
16519Did we practise rifle- shooting?
16519Did we run races?
16519Do you comprehend what she meant?
16519Do you know anything about him?"
16519Does the same system make men patriotic and cruel, loyal and arrogant, obedient and deceitful, courageous and cunning, dutiful and beastly?
16519Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
16519Doubtless the citizens of the place also have their corps?"

26735Why, child,said Lord Clare,"what do you want of the Blarney Stone?"
26735Why, daughter Fanny, what have you there?
26735Why, no,she answered,"what should I be afraid of?"
26735Why, what is the matter, boys?
26735Yes, and will yer honor kindly point out the stone to me? 26735 ''What have you there, good woman?'' 26735 And now, may I not hope that all the dear young readers who have gone with me thus far, in my wanderings, will wish to bear me company yet further? 26735 And the Spanish Dons and Donnas, what did they do, robbed of their splendid apparel? 26735 Are you brave enough to venture?
26735As Lady Evremond gazed on the marble image of her dead boy, she murmured:"Have I not been true to thy trust, my son?"
26735At the further end she saw some one coming, she could not see who it was, by the dim starlight, so she asked:"Roger, is that you?"
26735But she spoke very civilly, and said--"Good morning, sir; and what brings you to visit my fine family so early, before they''ve had their breakfast?"
26735But who was St. Winifred?
26735Do n''t you see them?
26735Hark, do n''t you hear the fairy music?
26735Have ye ever come yet to sleeping in a stable in Bethlehem, among cows and sheep and asses?
26735One of them was in the act of killing the queen, but a son of Graham prevented it, by exclaiming,"What would you do with the queen?
26735Reader, do you seek his monument?
26735The next moment, Fanny was at her side, smiling and whispering joyfully,"Did n''t I tell you my papa was almost as good as a fairy?"
26735Well, Norah, how came this brother of yours to enlist?"
26735When Mabel was told that she must go to England, almost the first words which she sobbed out were,"May I take Bobby?"
26735Will you tell me, plase, where I can find it?"
26735and was our Kathleen amongst them?"
26735and where am I to get the heart to spake up to the lord- lieutenant for poor Phin?"
26735and you brought some_ blarney_ in the other pocket,"said the mother eagle;"for do n''t I know you came to steal my children-- the darlings?"
26735exclaimed Philip,"what''ll we do?"
26735that would be a miracle; but how am I to get at the stone?"
26735they would make an ilegant match, by raison of his height an''her shortness,--an''thin, have n''t they hair of the same lively shade of red?"
26735what have you done?"
26735wo n''t you take Norah home with us, to be my little maid?"
35086''How do you feel on the sudden change in the political world?
35086But I dislike writing when the spirits are below par, and how could they be otherwise with the afflicting event which has befallen the country?
35086Could anything be so extraordinary as the conduct of the Bishop of Worcester?
35086Do n''t you like independence?
35086On their going in he said:"Where is Miss Clitherow?
35086her of Colonel or Mrs. Clitherow would say,''How is_ your_ Princess Augusta?''
35182Why has she so eagerly, within these few hours, bidden her gossips not to despair?
34900Is not the very essence of your imperial policy to prevent the interest of Ireland clashing and interfering with the interest of England?... 34900 Your father Columba,""of rustic simplicity"said the English leader, had"that Columba of yours,"like Peter, the keeping of the keys of heaven?
34900A famous bard Raftery, playing at a dance heard one ask,"Who is the musician?"
34900How far, in fact, did the Irish civilisation invite and lend itself to this destruction?
34900In return does she cost you one farthing( except the linen monopoly)?
34900Was this triumph due to the weakness of tribal government and the superior value of the feudal land tenure?
32188And must I be opposed with force, because they have not reason whereby to convince me?
32188But who can unfold the riddle of some mens justice?
32188For, was it through ignorance, that I suffered innocent bloud to be shed by a false pretended way of Justice?
32188How oft have I entreated for Peace?
32188Is there no way left to make Me a glorious KING, but by my sufferings?
32188Is this the reward and thanks that I am to receive for those many acts of Grace I have lately passed, and for those many Indignities I have endured?
32188What dissolutions of all Order and Government in the Church?
32188What good man had not rather want any thing he most desired, for the publick good, then obtain it by such unlawfull and irreligious means?
32188Whom did I by power protect against the Justice of Parliament?
32188Whose innocent bloud, during my Reign, have I shed, to satisfie my lust, anger, or covetousness?
32188how long shall they love vanity, and seek after lies?__ Thou hast heard the reproaches of wicked men on every side.
32188what Widows or Orphans tears can witnesse against me; the just cry of which must now be avenged with my Own bloud?
32188what contempt and oppressions of the Clergie?
32188what novelties of Schism, and corrupt opinions?
32188what sacrilegious Invasions upon the Rights and Revenues of the Church?
32188what undecencies and confusions in sacred Administrations?
31677How am I to make anything of these meagre entries of marches and battles which are the only materials for the history of whole centuries? 31677 What are they?"
31677What was there in it so to stir you?
31677And how, being so unlike the Englishmen among whom his lot was cast, did he so fascinate and rule them?
31677But was this altogether a misfortune?
31677By what gifts or arts did he win such a success?
31677Did Lowe''s?
31677Did he hold any principles, or was he merely playing with them as counters?
31677How can one conceive and describe them?
31677I love her old renown, her ancient fame: What better proof than that I loathe her shame?
31677I said;"and how have you found time to think of them?"
31677Is Semitic genius specially rich in this mocking vein?
31677Was he too fond of power?
31677Was there really a mystery beneath the wizard''s robe which he delighted to wrap around him?
31677What was the true character of the man who had sustained such a part?
31677What will posterity think of him, and by what will he be remembered?
31677What, then, was the secret of his great and long- sustained reputation and influence?
31677Why should I abuse them?
31677Why should I call them hard names?
31677Would opposite views regarding his aims, his ideas, the sources of his power, still divide the learned, and perplex the ordinary reader?
31677Would the riddle be easier then than it was for us, from among whom the man had even now departed?
31677Yet how shall one know what to neglect without at least a glance of inspection?
31677how have any comprehension of what England was like in the districts the Northmen took and ruled?"
26049And why the devil does he want to come just at the end of the quarter when I''m busy with my accounts?
26049Beggin''your pardon, sir; but seein''as''ow you''re a doctor, I wonder if you''appens to know our bloke in the_ Jackass_?
26049But tell me?
26049But what on earth made him streak off like that?
26049Can you not buy your chickens, or my chickens, rather, all one colour? 26049 D''you see that?"
26049Did the first lieutenant and doctor make it up all right?
26049Did you have any difficulty in seeing the next ahead?
26049Do either of you men bear any grudge against the other?
26049Do you mean to tell me they still have these archaic methods in the Navy?
26049Does he, indeed?
26049Ever kept officer of the watch at sea?
26049Have you ever been in a destroyer before?
26049He hit you in the eye?
26049In what way?
26049Is it not possible for you to buy fowls of all the same colour?
26049It do look a bit like''ay, do n''t it? 26049 Pulling his leg?"
26049So soon? 26049 Suppose a man is tall, thin, and bearded, sir?"
26049The First Lieutenant meant BUOYS and the doctor the ship''s BOYS, what?
26049Well, Sub?
26049Well,I asked, merely to start a conversation,"how d''you like the Navy?"
26049Well,''Sub,''how goes it?
26049What about the Book of Proverbs?
26049What about the bleeding?
26049What d''you mean?
26049What d''you think of station keeping at night?
26049What have you to say?
26049What is the matter?
26049What is your name, my man?
26049What sort of a chap did you say he was, Number One?
26049What the devil''s the matter with him?
26049What''s up, Number One?
26049What, in case the ship is torpedoed or sunk by a mine?
26049Who do they belong to?
26049Who is your sailor friend?
26049Who, your doctor?
26049Why on earth do n''t you look where you''re going?
26049Why the deuce ca n''t he leave us in peace a bit longer?
26049You no likee black piecee hen, sah?
26049You will doubtless have heard that I like to keep my ship''s companies happy and contented, eh?
26049You''ai nt got a fill o''''bacca abart you, I suppose, sir?
26049Young lady, sir?
26049Zebra, Charlie, Fanny-- Ethel, Donkey, Tommy-- Ginger, Percy, Lizzie---- Got that, Bill?
26049''''Ow in''ell d''you make that art?''
26049''In the sick bay, sir?''
26049''Wot the devil''s the meanin''o''this?''
26049''You knows them buoys we was usin''yesterday?''
26049''You means them wot we''ad fur that there boat racin''yesterday?''
26049''You means, doc., that I''ve no right to order the boys to be bled, wot?''
26049Besides, bleeding is hopelessly...""Is it me wot''s spinnin''this''ere yarn or is it you, sir?"
26049But what did he do?
26049D''you realise that?"
26049Did you see the way he skipped?"
26049Do you want any more cigarettes?
26049Falland?"
26049Falland?"
26049Have I got time to do''em before he comes?"
26049I take it we go to sea at the usual time this evening, sir?"
26049I will have them in the proper dress of the day like the ship''s company, do you understand?"
26049It is a good idea, is it not?"
26049It was a hateful business to have to fire at her at all, but what else could we do as she would not surrender?
26049Pardoe?"
26049Should he rouse the skipper or should he not?
26049What corpse?"
26049What''s a chief buffer?"
26049What''s that?"
26049Why, d''you mean to tell me you do n''t know wot bleedin''a buoy is?"
26049Wot did you say your corpse wus?"
26049he arsks.--''You did indeed, Sawbones,''Number One tells''im.--''But surely that''s my bizness?''
16928Where are you going?
16928Why do n''t you come to us?
16928''A thousand years, eh?''
16928''Alas, yes,''sobbed Tawhiao;''what can be done?''
16928''Assuredly,''Sir George remarked,''the mission was not without danger, as what venture can be in war?
16928''By whom?''
16928''Can nothing,''he reflected with himself,''be done for this canker, this wretchedness?
16928''Did n''t I tell you that there is a man in the bath?''
16928''Did n''t he know the water was for me?''
16928''For instance,''he innocently pleaded,''is it necessary that so much should be expended on the jewellery and ornaments of the women?
16928''Give the people of New Zealand my love,''it ran,''and may God have you in His keeping?
16928''Good God,''the officer in the bunk exclaimed, sitting up with a jerk, as if the last trumpet had sounded:''D''Eth, where?''
16928''How can I tell?''
16928''If a man brought about the death of several other men, what would you say?''
16928''If that is your view, Tawhiao, what words would you have for a man who destroyed the happiness of a whole nation, and that his own?''
16928''If you had yourself,''somebody put it to him,''invested in a few of these sites, you would be rich instead of poor?''
16928''Well, when he had accomplished a good part of the journey he asked himself,"Can I do it after all?"
16928''What do you mean?''
16928''What sort of South Africa did I find?
16928''What was I to do indeed?
16928''What was I to do?
16928''What would have been the outcome of an attack on Wellington?
16928''Where did I get my inspiration?
16928''Who could be so cruel?
16928''Who is the fellow?''
16928''Why,''argued the old Maori,''could you not at once have hanged the natives who were arrested?
16928''Why,''declared one of his men, helping him towards the camp,''should you worry yourself over having shot that black fellow?
16928''Will you answer me a question?''
16928A cry of sorrow and repentance by Lamech, at some ill- starred act, which filled him with remorse?
16928A quite large Cabinet being created, the Prime Minister suggested,"Gentlemen, had we not better sit round the table?"
16928A title to one''s name, a red ribbon, or something else, what are they but baubles, unless there is more?
16928And he said:''But who are you?
16928And his master asked him,''Who broke it?''
16928And of his venture, which never came off, he meditated,''Might it not do good?
16928And the orange stall?
16928And what was the reward of all this labour?
16928At last he caught hold of a hand and cried out,''Hullo, who''s this?''
16928At last the slave went again to Tutanekai, who said to him,''Where is the water for me?''
16928At that he smiled,''And who, do you fancy, would thank you for them?''
16928Before my friend Mr. Reitz accepted its Presidency, he wrote and asked me would I be willing to consider the offer, provided it were made to me?
16928But was India merely face to face with a disturbance which she could manage herself, or was it a widespread mutiny?
16928But why not?
16928But would it be wisdom?
16928By what means were they communicated?
16928Can such in very truth be the case?
16928Did ever a boy at his lessons occupy a seat of such influence?
16928Did it rest its control of the nations, successively adopted into it, upon their fears, upon a compelled obedience?
16928Did they really care?
16928Did you ever?''
16928England?
16928For what was their message?
16928Go back to the England of Elizabeth, and what did we find?
16928Ha, ha, are you there?"
16928He had always his commission in the army, but was that his definite signpost?
16928He named it, and the lad followed up,''Where did it come from?
16928He returned triumphant with the news,''Would you believe it?
16928He struck an inner note of nature which is surely equally valid the other way?
16928He turned to the chiefs:"Did you hear the Governor''s word?
16928Hearing of this, I ran to him, and he asked me would he die of the wound or not?
16928Here was a struggle between mind and body, each determined to conquer-- a study in the inner sanctuary; but how began the fight?
16928His heart was full, and perhaps also his mind with the idea,''Is it ours to impale the soul as well as the body of a fellow- creature?
16928How could he?
16928How did Napoleon Bonaparte make his army?
16928How many men, being tendered the highest post that their country could confer, would have turned to another, asking,"Will you accept it?"''
16928How to rear a nation?
16928How was that?
16928How, to help this girdling of the whole world with beneficent influences, through the medium of the Anglo- Saxon?
16928However, she merely exclaimed,"Well if you''re not''Magic,''who are you?"
16928I addressed the chief,"How could you be so foolish?
16928If the babe leaves the womb, to come into such a beautiful world as ours, how beautiful a world may we not pass into?
16928If the leader had cheering and example, what were these set against this final ordeal: a blistering thirst of three days and two nights?
16928If you had n''t, where should we all have been?
16928It was no business of mine to do more than I had done; let them now propose?
16928Lyell walked in on him, in London, with a spear- head and the curiosity,''How old do you judge that would be?''
16928Moreover, need a man, estimating wealth on its merits, care to be rich?
16928Nay, it appeared to be in my own bedroom, searching for my face and challenging me,"Are you there?
16928Next,''Who killed it?''
16928Now recur my conversations with him, which included the question,"Is it not rather bad that you should all be living here with these native women?"
16928Now, was n''t that a nice thing for a boy to do?
16928Set against any of the others, all in the primitive state, the Kaffirs might have prevailed, though who could say?
16928Sir George would marvel at the splendour of that creation, asking himself,''Might it, if fully revealed, not be all too dazzling for human eyes?''
16928Sir George''s ministers asked him:''What are you going to do after this outrage and challenge?''
16928Still, why should there not be acres rich and worthy, behind those dull grey rocks?
16928Surely it has the secret of sweeter, freer homes; surely in those new countries lie better possibilities?
16928That was right well, for how many had made such a contribution to the history and dominion of the reign?
16928That was why it appeared to me unnecessary to ask a number of leading men: Did they approve what I was doing?
16928That would depend on the elements of the gathering, whether local or casual, and who can determine the point in a city like London?
16928The Queen of England?
16928The blacks assailed no more; instead, the birds sang in the sun, and he asked himself,''Is it all a dream?''
16928The maiden, who was frightened, called out to him in a gruff voice like that of a man:''Whom is that water for?
16928The native stayed no longer to consider''Is this a sorcerer?''
16928The servant then went back, and Tutanekai said to him,''Where is the water I told you to bring me?''
16928The sleeper turned himself lazily, half asleep, wishful only to be left to sleep on, and asked,''Who''s there?''
16928Then the servant asked her,''What business had you to break the calabash of Tutanekai?''
16928They noticed Sir George, and a delegate approached him with the request,''Please, sir, can you tell us the name of this creature?''
16928This was how he gravely met Mr. Mundella''s gentle overture,''Now, wo n''t you withdraw from the contest?''
16928To a problem which the youngest child carries lightly, Sir George had given much thought, namely,''Of what does human life consist?
16928To them it was religion; whence did they get it?
16928Towards afternoon, everybody being in despair, I proposed,"Why not have some cock- fighting?"
16928Was I to delay until actually attacked?
16928Was it right to tax posterity?
16928Was there ever such a noble band?
16928What better evidence of the innate chivalry of a race, than to find them instinctively expect it in a stranger?
16928What could be more pathetic than the cramping of aspirations, such as had been seen in the case of Ireland?
16928What happened?
16928What judgment would England pass upon King Tawhiao if, while a visitor there, he gave way to drink?
16928What more?
16928What nation, they demanded, had the right so to treat a section of its people, who had done nothing to disqualify themselves from citizenship?
16928What should I do but write of Sir George Grey as I beheld him, of his career as one captured by it?
16928What should he do?
16928What think''st thou of our Empire now, though earn''d With travail difficult?
16928What was the matter?
16928What was to be done?
16928What wonder, he reasoned as he sailed, that a sailor should be superstitious?
16928When I had spoken he took my hand and said,"Have I done my duty to- day?
16928Where did that family come from?
16928Which would it be?
16928Who among them could have imagined the glorious reign hers was to be?
16928Who could answer that?
16928Who had the right, to tell another man, of the same blood, that he was no longer a Briton, because he lived many sea miles distant?
16928Who was to hold the arena?
16928Who''s I?''
16928Why?
16928Would it be a moral victory, won by a simple advance on the rock, or would it be necessary to strike?
16928Would there be enough rain?
16928Would they not really look more handsome, without all those gew- gaws of brass and metal, which they wear round their arms and ankles?''
16928is it so ill?''
16928quoth the policeman;"that''s your game, is it?
16928what are its elements?''
23470Is this right?
23470Why not?
23470''Is it possible?''
23470Any hour might bring the news that the King was drowned; and who could tell what might not happen in England then?
23470Are we any the better for having it?
23470But then comes the question, Is the censorship of any use?
23470But would there be anything very unfair or unreasonable in that?
23470Cope might be here to- morrow, the day after to- morrow, to- day, who knows?
23470Did not the theatres flourish, never better, during the Reign of Terror?
23470Does it follow that if Walpole did know all about it, he was wrong in adhering to his policy of non- intervention?
23470For what did it amount to?
23470Had not the English dogs fortified their settlement without his permission?
23470Had they not afforded shelter to some victim flying from his omnivorous rapacity?
23470He seemed to recover a kind of alertness at the sound, and shaking himself from his deadly stupor, asked,"Who run?"
23470Her flag had been trampled on; her seamen had been imprisoned, mutilated, tortured; and all this by whom?
23470How was it possible for the attacking force to make its way unseen by the French up the precipitous cliffs to the Heights of Abraham?
23470If he had never had the chance of administering the affairs of Ireland, how should we ever have known that he had a genius for governing men?
23470If it did come to pass, could not such a minister promise himself more success in a septennial than he{ 13} could in a triennial Parliament?
23470Is it likely, is it credible, that Walpole had never heard of the existence of a compact which was known to the Duke of Newcastle?
23470Is not this enough to fire the coldest?
23470Is not this enough to rouse all the vengeance of a national resentment?
23470Let the flag of England be torn down and trailed in the dust-- what then?
23470Now the whispered question was,"Has the Queen taken-- will the Queen take-- the sacrament?"
23470Now then you have got so far as the preventing of plays from being printed, what happens next?
23470Pulteney?
23470Shall we sit here debating about words and forms while the sufferings of our countrymen call out loudly for redress?"
23470Should we not get on just as well without it?
23470The King presently went into{ 123} the Queen''s room, and then the princess started up and asked,"Is he gone?"
23470The claim to power had still to be earned for them by the success of their administration; and what was there for them to do?
23470The great question was would Cope come in time?
23470The question is still asked, Why should the people of these countries submit to a censorship of the press?
23470Then came the troubling question, who is to be Prime- minister?
23470To his own ruin?
23470Up to this time they kept asking,"Has the Queen no one to pray with her?"
23470We can imagine the momentary trepidation in that gallant heart: could it be his outnumbered followers?
23470Were not the Romans in the theatre when the Goths came over the hills?
23470Were there not other ways, it was asked, by which Englishmen might have lost an ear as well as by the fury of the hateful Spaniards?
23470What can he know of grandeur of soul, of national honor, of constitutional rights, of political liberty?
23470What could it have mattered to the English people whether George the Second or his eldest son was{ 73} on the throne?
23470What do we hear of him?
23470What had occurred?
23470What ought England to do?
23470What sympathy could such a man as he have with the Celtic and Catholic Irishman?
23470What was Spain doing?
23470What was it all about?
23470What will come of this?
23470What wonder, they asked, in patriotic passion, if Spain or any other foreign state should believe such things?
23470What would have happened if the bloated King had been tossed ashore a corpse on the coast of England or the coast of Holland?
23470When this happened last, what followed?
23470Where is the brave man,"he demanded,"who in a just cause will submissively lie down under insults?
23470Who can tell into whose hands the King will fall, or who will have the management of him?"
23470Who cares for his old storm?
23470Who does not remember Wolfe''s famous saying that he would rather have written the Elegy than take Quebec?
23470Why did Spain venture on such acts?
23470Why should he care to be popular with such a population?
23470Why then not have a censorship of the press as well as of the theatre, or why have the one if you will not have the other?
23470[ Sidenote: 1737--Unpopularity of George the Second]"How is the wind now for the King?"
23470[ Sidenote: 1742--The combined four] Then Pulteney''s career as a great Prime- minister is not beginning?
23470[ Sidenote: 1745--The state of Ireland] What did Chesterfield find in Ireland when he came to undertake the task of government in Dublin Castle?
23470poor Caroline asked; was not Lady Suffolk, a former mistress of the King, in the Queen''s employment?

16450Somebody asked me:--''If Ireland were to get Home Rule, what would become of the agitator?''

29687And my wife said,"What should be the cause?"

29687Can we suppose that he designed to dupe Henry into submission by a promise which he had predetermined to break?
29687Extraordinary as it must seem, the pope certainly bound himself by this engagement: and who can tell with what intention?
29687For what hadst thou, if thy father had not done so?
29687Had the meaning of that awful figure hanging on the torturing cross suddenly revealed itself?

29687Or the Duke of Norfolk, the veteran who had won his spurs at Flodden?
29687Or the Duke of Suffolk and Sir William Fitzwilliam, the Wellington and the Nelson of the sixteenth century?

35105But who can be content that poor Letitia Landon should sleep beneath the pavement of a barrack, with soldiers trampling over her dust?
35105Does Brackenbury still kneel in the cold, lonely, vacant chapel of St. John; or the sad ghost of Monmouth hover in the chancel of St. Peter''s?
35105How looks, to- night, the interior of the chapel of the Foundling hospital?
35105Into what dangers will the great ship plunge?
35105Stay, passenger, why goest thov by so fast?
35105Through what mysterious waste of waters will she make her viewless path?
35105Yet-- what woman ever had greater love than was lavished on her?
10610Oh, when shall I be with you?
10610''Have you read the latter part of Lord J. Russell''s speech?''
10610***** What is to be done?
10610--At Sea, April 9th._--Will this letter be delivered to you by the post or by the writer in person?
10610... Shall I really eat my Christmas dinner with you?
10610Am I likely to find fifty young military officers who would be competent to advise the Ryots on points of so much delicacy?
10610And Frederick-- what will he think of my coming out?
10610And again, was it not equally certain that undeserved aspersions were cast upon the planters?
10610And if we do, what will be its character?
10610And is this really so incontestable a truth that it is a duty not only to hold but to proclaim it?
10610And what is the result?
10610And what will the sum of those experiences be?
10610And wherefore this foreboding?
10610And who are the Americans?
10610And why is it otherwise in India?
10610And with what issues?
10610And, after all, may I not with all submission ask, Is not the question at issue a most momentous one?
10610Are we to stand by and laugh at our dupe, telling him that though our advice got him into the scrape, he must find his own way out of it?
10610Bight or wrong you had better book up, for we are bound to keep the peace, and we shall certainly be down upon you if you kick up a row''?
10610But by whom is this charge to be borne?
10610But how does the case stand with us?
10610But if so, what are the conditions which will entitle railway enterprises of this class to the countenance and encouragement of the Government?
10610But is it indeed so light a matter, even as our constitution now works?
10610But is it the right way?
10610But is it true?
10610But suppose them to be successful, what would be the result?
10610But what does this resolution in favour of an uniform gauge imply?
10610But what is to be done?
10610But wherefore then this anticipation-- if foreboding be not the correct term?
10610Can I do anything to prevent England from calling down on herself God''s curse for brutalities committed on another feeble Oriental race?
10610Could I leave this, the really noblest part of my task, to be worked out by others?
10610Did I ever mention it in my letters?
10610Do not anniversaries stir this great fountain of sadness?
10610Have you returned to your desolate home?
10610How can it be justifiable to adopt the former of these expedients, and sacrilegious to act upon the latter?
10610How has she sought to solve this problem-- to overcome this difficulty?
10610How long can such a state of things be expected to endure?
10610How many since we parted?
10610How, then, does it come to pass, that the labours of their descendants here have been rewarded by a return so much more immediate and abundant?
10610I am waiting for Parkes and the General before I decide as to landing,& c. Is it not strange to be here?
10610If firing had begun, who could tell when it would end?
10610If the rising generation, however, are not educated, what is to become of this island?
10610If this goes on one fortnight after we have captured the town, when is it to stop?...
10610Is education necessary to qualify the peasantry to carry on the rude field operations of slavery?
10610Is it a light matter that the Crown should have the power of dissolving Parliament; in other words, of deposing the tyrant at will?
10610Is it indeed true( he wrote to Lady Elgin)?
10610Is it not lawful to be sad?
10610Is it one which has any claim to a special remedy?
10610Is it so or am I to meet some great disappointment when I reach China?
10610Is it the Canadas?
10610Is it to be all undone?
10610Is there not, however, some fallacy in this?
10610It can always be said:"What does Lord Elgin know of India?
10610Let me ask you, who is the worse off for this display of good feeling and fraternal intercourse?
10610May I hope that it is so?
10610May not some persons even entertain the apprehension, that it will indispose them to such pursuits?
10610Now, gentlemen, what is the inference that I would draw from all this?
10610Now, how was this change effected?
10610Or if I had gone home, and left the winding- up of these affairs in the hands of others?...
10610Shall we find any Chinese news there?
10610Shall we meet any vessels at the rendezvous?
10610The first consideration which offers itself in connection with this subject is this,''Why does Canada require to be defended, and against whom?''
10610There will remain the questions: Is there a grievance at all?
10610This line of argument very naturally raises the question, wherefore then is the maintenance of so large a European army necessary?
10610Twenty years hence, what will be the contrast?
10610Was it not attested even in Parliament, that estates, which used to produce thousands annually, were sinking money year after year?
10610Was it not shown on the face of unquestioned official returns, that the exports of the island had dwindled to one- third of their former amount?
10610Was the result of his hard- won victory only to empty himself of all but the mere outward show of power and authority?
10610Well, then, how has Upper Canada addressed herself to the execution of this great work?
10610Were they not held responsible for results over which they could exercise no manner of control?
10610What ground of consolation or hope does he discover there?
10610What have we now done to put an end to this?
10610What hope was there that a body so constituted would wield such powers with discretion?
10610What in point of fact_ can_ the other suffering interests, of which the_ Times_ writes, do?
10610What is the moral I would endeavour to impress upon you?
10610What reasons can you assign for the refusal, except such as are founded on selfishness, and are, therefore, morally worthless?
10610What then was the scope and extent of application which Canning in action was prepared to give to this policy?
10610What will he do?
10610What will the result be?
10610What will this day bring forth?
10610Whence then are these funds derived?
10610Where are you now?...
10610Who will attend to it now?
10610Who would have supposed a few days ago that poor Ritchie would have been the first summoned?
10610Why was there so much violence on the part of the opposition here last summer, particularly against the Governor- General?
10610Why, then, blame us for discussing the subject?''
10610Will it be a great disappointment, or will its interest equal the expectations it raises?
10610Will you think me mad?
10610Would he back me?...
10610Would it have been better for me if I had had more engrossing positive work?
10610Would it have happened if I had given way to those who wished me to carry fire and sword through all the country villages?
10610Would this have been wise or humane for a little bravado, or that the country might not be alarmed for a day or two?''
10610_ At Sea, Gulf of Pecheli.--July 5th_.--At last I am actually off-- on my way home?
10610_ Ceylon, March 2nd._--I found here your letters to January 10th, and am relieved... Where is our meeting to be?...
10610_ Chi sa?_... You will like to have a complete record of my experiences during my long absence.
10610_ July 10th_.--What will the House of Commons say when the bill which has to be paid for this war is presented?
10610_ May 22nd._--Have you read Russell''s book on the Indian Mutiny?
10610_ Nan- tsai- tsun.--September 12th._--Where will this letter be sent from?
10610_ Yamun, Tientsin.--May 30th._--Only look at my date, does it not astonish you?
10610and against whom?
10610and if we undertake the latter task, how far will it lead us?
10610and was it not natural that, having been thus calumniated, they should be somewhat impatient of advice?
10610or are we to set to work to check his opponents?
10610or what will your view of my proceedings be?...
10610than his neighbours?''
10610the mystery, shall we say, of God''s universe or of man''s destiny?)
10610the ryot?
10610what resemblance will the facts bear to these anticipations?
18511''Welcome, my lorde,''sayd his lady;''Syr, lost is all your good?'' 18511 And by what names call you these pilgrims?"
18511And what will he give to my friend, the king of Norway?
18511And who are you?
18511But what of that? 18511 But who is your companion?"
18511Can you not borrow the sum?
18511Can you swim?
18511Do they fancy that I am fool enough to give up my plans because a monk dreams or an old woman sneezes? 18511 Do they take me for an Englishman, with their dreams?"
18511Do you agree to surrender the castle and all within it at the end of that time?
18511Do you bring a message from General Elphinstone,--from the army?
18511Do? 18511 Edward''s army?
18511From what country do these young men come?
18511Has he sent you hither to carry shadows? 18511 Hast thou brought my pay?"
18511Have any of the English, that joined hands with the Scots, been taken?
18511How and whither?
18511I am your king and lord, good people,he boldly addressed them;"what will ye?"
18511Is it not time we should dine?
18511Is it so little, then?
18511Is your pain great?
18511It is thick enough to hide us, you think?
18511King Richard,said Wat,"dost thou see all my men there?"
18511My good woman,he said,"can you be faithful to a distressed cavalier?"
18511Now, then, go on with thy work; what art thou looking about for?
18511Part?
18511Rumor, then, has lied, and she is but an every- day woman, after all?
18511There; do you see?
18511To whom shall I yield?
18511Very well,answered Buckingham;"but how is it to be done?"
18511Well, Hardy, how goes the day with us?
18511What boat is that? 18511 What brings you so late?"
18511What cheer?
18511What has put such nonsense into your pate?
18511What have you seen that should turn you?
18511What is amiss?
18511What kind of man was he you call the king?
18511What means all this, good sirs?
18511What more will you give the knight for a full release?
18511What motive had you?
18511What need ye, my masters?
18511What news have you?
18511What shall be done with this bauble?
18511What shall we do?
18511What shall we do?
18511What will Harold give me if I make peace with him?
18511What would he say?
18511Where are the last year''s leaves of your trees?
18511Where are your friends?
18511Where is my cousin, the prince of Wales?
18511Where is the prince?
18511Where is your general?
18511Wherefore?
18511Who are the six? 18511 Who are they that have sent thee to ask a free passage of me?"
18511Who are you, friend and comrade?
18511Who can they be?
18511Who is that?
18511Who is the man that fell?
18511Whom have you here, Gunter?
18511Why do you quarrel?
18511Why?
18511Will no one bring Hardy to me?
18511Will not Admiral Collingwood take charge of the fleet?
18511You have seen and noted her, Athelwold,said Edgar, on giving him audience;"what have you to say?
18511You know them, then?
18511You the army? 18511 Your master-- who is he?"
18511A few moments of silence passed; then he said in the same low tone,--"What would become of my poor Lady Hamilton if she knew my situation?"
18511Amity between the two nations; a century of peace and friendship?
18511And what have they done that they should be beyond mercy?"
18511And what is the name of their king?"
18511And you?"
18511Before he could be rescued he must be found, and how should this be done?
18511But were not those the days of chivalry?
18511But what was faith, what an oath, when a crown was the prize?
18511By what right are they whom we call lords greater folk than we?
18511Did his coming in this sad plight portend some dark disaster?
18511Did it mean repulse or victory?
18511For centuries the meetings of French and English kings had been hostile; could they now be trusted to be peaceful?
18511From what country come they?"
18511Has report spoken truly?
18511His father, his grandfather, and his great- grandfather all went into foreign countries to fetch home their wives,--why not the prince, my son?"
18511How came he in such a condition?
18511How did they hope to escape?
18511How were the other two to gain their liberty?
18511In conclusion, the question may be asked, Who was Perkin Warbeck?
18511Is she indeed the marvellous beauty that rumor tells, or has fame, the liar, played us one of his old tricks?"
18511Is there anything convenient to drink?
18511Mainwaring had been wrong,--was the ferryman right?--was a duel the purpose of this flight in disguise?
18511Meanwhile, what had become of the disconsolate Lady Arabella?
18511Might not the sword of the past be hidden in the olive- branch of the present?
18511On what grounds have they deserved it?
18511Shall we not add a livery to his purse?"
18511Shall we tell the tale of this show of mimic war?
18511She was nobly born, the heiress to an earldom, the very rose of English maidens,--what better consort for the throne could be found?
18511Should they enter the woods?
18511So spoke his hearers in the popular rhyme of the day:"When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman?"
18511Such was the scene: what were the ceremonies?
18511The ancient ferryman looked at them with some suspicion as they entered his boat, asking himself,"What lark is afoot with these young bloods?
18511The cook looked at him scornfully, and broke out in angry tones,--"What countrymen are you, that you know not how to wind up a jack?"
18511The flour- sprinkled fellow heard their footsteps in the darkness, and called out,--"Who goes there?"
18511Then, under command of the king, one of his noble followers rode up to the opposing line and called out,--"Is Tostig, the son of Godwin, here?"
18511Well, well, what mad frolic is afoot?
18511Were the Londoners mad?
18511Were these her humbled citizens of London?
18511Were they pushing the bill through the House in defiance of the army?
18511What brings you here then, sirrah, if you fetch no money?"
18511What did it mean?
18511What had become of them?
18511What had he to tell of the army in the field?
18511What if, in another look, this fellow should get a nearer glimpse at the truth?
18511What time have we to make merry here and still reach England with the rest?"
18511What was its result?
18511What was to be done for the safety of the other two?
18511Who should it be?
18511Who was he?
18511Who was he?
18511Who was this eager errant knight?
18511Whom have you on board?"
18511Why do they hold us in serfage?
18511You will scarcely stop the lord admiral, going in disguise to Dover to make a secret inspection of the fleet?"
18511_ ROBIN HOOD AND THE KNIGHT OF THE RUEFUL COUNTENANCE._"Where will the old duke live?"
18511cried Richard,"what have I done to you that you should take my life?"
18511was not Edward famed for his chivalrous spirit?
36193''What?''
36193Why should she not marry the couple?
36193exclaimed Lord Lyndhurst,''do tailors bother themselves about such measures?''
36193{ 220}''Who is that magnificent- looking officer?''

26493Can anyone doubt but that, if the Chinese Government had the power, they would stop importation to- morrow? 26493 It may be asked-- How can the present state of things be altered?
26493Then in came Cherif Pasha( the Premier), and said,''Are you agreed?'' 26493 What could our Government do_ in re_ opium?
26493What should be done? 26493 What then, you ask, should be done?
26493_ Query_--Would it be advisable to add chiefs and missionaries after sub- residents? 26493 ''What are those ruins?'' 26493 And for what? 26493 Are they not to be considered? 26493 Are they to be sacrificed? 26493 As to the Premier''s remark that I would not fight against Masupha, is it likely I could fight against a man with whom I am life and soul? 26493 Could this possibly be the great attack on Khartoum? 26493 Did it not occur to anyone how greatly, at the worst stage of the siege, Gordon had thus weakened himself to assist the relieving expedition? 26493 Did not our Government once allow slave- trading? 26493 Did you ever read the letters of the Ambassador before Marquis Tsêng? 26493 Do these Governments want to be free of this religious fanatic? 26493 Do you insist on rescinding the same?
26493Do you know that cargoes of slaves came into Bristol Harbour in the time of our fathers?
26493Does H.M.''s Government or Egyptian Government desire a settled state of affairs in Soudan after the evacuation?
26493Had the planters no rights?
26493Have they no rights?
26493Have_ we_ been the friend of Turkey?
26493He says in it:''If I had been guilty, would I not have escaped to Herat, whereas I put myself in your hands?''
26493How many years have elapsed between the Crimean war and the Russo- Turkish war?
26493How will you move your 6000 men from Khartoum-- to say nothing of other places-- and all the Europeans in that city through the desert to Wady Halfa?
26493I painted this picture to the Chinese of 1900:''Who are those people hanging about with jinrickshas?''
26493I said that might be, but what was the use of talking about it?
26493I said,''Well, will you commission me to do so, from you, with any remarks I like to make as to the futility of your words?''
26493I said,''Why do you not tell him so?''
26493In these days, in common justice, if we endow a Protestant University, why should we not endow a Catholic University in a Catholic country?
26493Is it not as difficult to get a £ 5 note from a Protestant as from a Catholic or Jew?
26493Let him say at once, Will he act without the Commissioners of Debt or not?
26493Should I regret the eternal camel- riding, the heat, the misery I am forced to witness, the discomforts of everything around my domestic life?
26493Sir Henry asked"When?"
26493Supposing that temptation did not exist, what other inducement could Russia offer for this alliance?
26493The Controllers are charged with the finances and the welfare of the country, but to whom are they responsible?
26493The substance of that statement is as follows:--"So you would abandon the Soudan?
26493They said''When?''
26493They said,''Had I seen Wolseley, and did I understand their ideas?''
26493They were crystallised in the phrase,"Why pay a man more at Simla than at Hongkong?"
26493They were pleased, and said''That was their idea; would I go?''
26493Was that their function?
26493Was the conduct of Cavagnari and his people discreet in a fanatical city?
26493We have trouble enough with the fanatics of India; why should we go out of our way to add to their numbers?
26493Were not those who forced Cavagnari on Yacoob against his protest equally responsible with him?
26493What are you going to do with them?
26493What did we do to press Turkey to carry out reforms( as promised by the Treaty of 1856) in those years?
26493What had happened in that brief interval of a few days to make him precipitate matters?
26493What more could Gordon say?
26493What more striking testimony to his thoughtfulness for others could be given than in the following anecdote?

26493Where are these letters or proof of this intention?
26493Where are you going to get the camels to take them away?
26493Who fired first shot from the Residency?
26493Who would dare to oppose the European colony in Egypt or China, and remain in those countries?"
26493Why should officers in India have more than officers in Hongkong?"

36339How many people have suffered on this account, in all classes of religious opinions, in different nations?
22546And is your having known him in the Tower,she cried,"a reason that you should think him a fitting husband for me?
22546And oh,he said,"how many things, how great things, may the church our mother, the bride of Christ, promise herself from these her children?
22546And tell me, have men given us our life? 22546 Are all those harnessed men there for me?"
22546Are you come?
22546Belike you will to others?
22546Do you want our captains?
22546Have you more, for my brother?
22546Is it even so?
22546Is it joy which now withholds Mary, or is it fear? 22546 Shall I say the_ Miserere_ psalm?"
22546Shamest thou not to do thine office,he said,"having a wife, as thou hast?
22546Tell me, I pray you, Mr. Walpole,he said,"if the council may rack me, or put me to torment, after the time I am condemned, or no?"
22546The noblemen,he was told,"bare him good- will; he was still strong, and might live many years, why should he cut them short?"
22546Well, Sir Nicholas, what news?
22546Well,Mary bitterly answered,"you persevere in your truth stiffly; belike you will not confess that you have been wrongly punished?"
22546What, my friend,he said to a warder who was an old acquaintance there,"how do you?
22546Who can save that will be lost? 22546 Who can stay him that willingly runneth into perdition?"
22546You pretend that you have used no instruments but reason to lead men after you; what instrument did the devil use to seduce our parents in Paradise? 22546 And how does she now shine out in loveliness? 22546 And what could that crime be? 22546 And what marvel was it? 22546 And, thinkest thou not, Gilbert, this world is now come? 22546 As they were leaving the church Hooper was heard to say,Come, brother Rogers, must we two take this matter first in hand and fry these faggots?"
22546But how be they used afterwards?
22546But what will ye more?
22546Can it be Mary that is so slow to open?
22546Could he expound Scripture, that he read it thus to himself?
22546Doth the queen think the king will remain in England with giving him the realm?
22546I have offended both heaven and earth more than my tongue can express; whither then may I go, or whither should I flee for succour?
22546If he led the army in person, whom could he leave in charge of London, the Tower, and Lady Jane?
22546If not with Pole, with whom did the guilt rest?
22546It is not so strange as the sudden conversion of the late duke; for who could have thought, said she, he would have so done?
22546May you not be glad of that, mother?"
22546Quis non ingemuit et arsit dolore?
22546Shall I despair?
22546Shall I go or stay?
22546Shall the earth bring forth in a day, or shall a nation of men be born together?
22546She tied a kerchief about her eyes; then, feeling for the block, she said, What shall I do; where is it?
22546Should I, who am young and in my few years, forsake my faith for the love of life?
22546The choice of a pope, however, would signify little, if only the child could be born; but where was the child?
22546Then she kneeled down, saying, Will you take it off before I lay me down?
22546To what purpose do we fear them?
22546To whom but to himself could he trust the army which must meet Mary in the field?
22546What do the lords mean, she said, that they suffer me thus to be led into captivity?
22546What shall I do?
22546What then?
22546What would the queen''s highness think?"
22546When{ p.120} they asked,"What is the mass?"
22546Who can judge that he should hope for pardon whose life was odious to all men?
22546Who ever yet hath seen it, who has heard of the similitude of it?
22546Who was more earnest then in defence of the real presence of Christ''s body and blood in the sacrament of the altar than ye were?
22546Why does it leave him escaped from Herod''s prison, knocking?
22546Why does not that nation make haste now to do Peter reverence?
22546Why had he not written?

22546Why is it closed to Peter?
22546Why, it may well be asked, did not the lords and gentlemen of England rise and trample down the perpetrators of these devilish enormities?
22546Why, then, has her memory been covered through centuries with scorn and obloquy?
22546Yet why should Mary fear now when Herod is dead?
22546[ 289] Which of you, then, said Gardiner, with dexterous ingenuity, will be responsible for the safe keeping of her person?

2614They object to tacking; do they? 2614 What could lead your Lordship to entertain such a suspicion?"
2614What is to become of the country, plundered by land, plundered by sea? 2614 Why this reserve?"
2614And is he to be suffered to use that sword to destroy us?"
2614And what assistance was she likely to have from abroad?
2614And what reason could be given for making such a distinction?
2614And what right had strangers to interfere?
2614And what right had the Old Company to more than strict justice?
2614And what were the advantages which could be set off against such evils?
2614And why should this be?
2614And, as to what is said about his birthplace, is there not already ill humour enough in Scotland?
2614And, if any part, what part?
2614And, if he landed, what would he find?
2614But was it of France alone that a nation so enlightened as the English must be jealous?
2614But were the Commons of England to stand in awe of great men?
2614Does it lie in the mouth of a son of that house to blame the judicious munificence of a wise and good King?
2614Has not the failure of that unhappy expedition to Darien raised a sufficiently bitter feeling against us throughout that kingdom?
2614How was it that so many of the kingdoms of modern Europe had been transformed from limited into absolute monarchies?
2614How would they like to have bills of supply with bills of attainder tacked to them?"
2614How, it was asked on the other side, can the fundamental laws of a monarchy be annulled by any authority but that of the supreme legislature?
2614Might not the two great rivals be induced to make to a third party concessions such as neither could reasonably be expected to make to the other?
2614The Emperor might have complained and threatened; but he must have submitted; for what could he do?
2614The States General of France, the Cortes of Castile, the Grand Justiciary of Arragon, what had been fatal to them all?
2614The great question was instantly raised; What provision should be made for the defence of the realm?
2614The question was whether a soldier was to be permitted to insult English gentlemen, and, if they murmured, to cut their throats?
2614The time drew near at which the Houses must reassemble; and how were the Commons to be managed?
2614These petitioners who implored the legislature to deal indulgently with them in their adversity, how had they used their boundless prosperity?
2614Was any part of this great force to be retained in the service of the State?
2614Was it certain that the united force of all her neighbours would be sufficient to compel her to relinquish her prey?
2614Was it forgotten that the House of Austria had once aspired to universal dominion?
2614Was it not certain that the contest would be long and terrible?
2614Was it possible that the dispute might be compromised?
2614Were our countrymen naturally inferior to men of other races in any of the qualities which, under proper training, make excellent soldiers?
2614Were the English of the seventeenth century so degenerate that they could not be trusted to play the men for their own homesteads and parish churches?

2614What had turned the Italian republics of the middle ages into lordships and duchies?
2614What means had the Company of waging such a war, and what chance of achieving such a triumph?
2614What was that mighty array which Elizabeth reviewed at Tilbury?

2614Would not they have the spirit to censure corruption and oppression in the highest places?

21624He may live without lore-- what is knowledge but grieving? 21624 It was shortly after the publication of_ Essays and Reviews_ that Jowett, meeting Coxe, enquired:--"Have you read my essay?"
21624Not be at Lord''s, my boy? 21624 Not really?
21624Plenty of the animal about, I hope?
21624Shall we continue this conversation in the drawing- room?
21624What wine do you drink?
21624What''s the matter?
21624Who is that?
21624Who would lead our armies into Edom?
21624You know that the Radical Candidate arrived drunk at one of his meetings? 21624 You left two at each of the houses on your list?"
21624You see that? 21624 _ For what we have received_,"& c."Do you know you''ve been talking at the top of your voice all the time grace was going on?"
21624_ One look back_--What was London like in those distant days, which lie, say, between 1876 and 1886?
21624_ Placetne igitur vobis huic nomini assentire?_being the form in which the question was proposed.
21624''And why?''
21624''But why should you like to mess with them, if they do n''t eat any dinner?''
21624''Do you see those four fellows seated opposite to us?
21624''E''s nimble, ai n''t he?"
21624''There''s plenty, is n''t there?''
21624***** Still on her spire the pigeons hover; Still by her gateway haunts the gown; Ah, but her secret?
21624--_From a Memorial Sermon by B. Jowett._ V OXONIANA"Mind''st thou the bells?
21624A friend of mine once asked the Queen this plain question:"When a Prime Minister goes out, does he recommend a successor?"
21624And who is to preside over these changes?"
21624Another, quite unmoved by the pectoral cross and crimson soutane, asked artlessly,"What was your college?"
21624Are we listening to St. John the Baptist or St. John the Evangelist?
21624As the ladies in_ Cranford_ said--"What can it matter what we wear here, where everyone knows who we are?"
21624Bill Juffs, as used to go birds- nesting with you"; or,"You remember my old dad, my lord?
21624But I turn to the Revised Version, and what do I read?
21624But can you wonder?
21624But where is the man that can live without dining?"
21624Can you tell me what he means?"
21624Do you know him?
21624For, after all, what are the Clubs of London?
21624Frederick Locker, a minor poet of Society, asked in some pensive stanzas on Rotten Row:"But where is now the courtly troop That once rode laughing by?
21624He may live without hope-- what is hope but deceiving?
21624He may live without love-- what is passion but pining?
21624Hers of the Book, the tripled Crown?
21624If such a thing had been proposed, what would have happened?
21624Is it to be favourite or brilliant members of a society which keeps want and misery at a distance?
21624Is it to continue, with fewer restrictions, the amusements which have engrossed you here?
21624Is that Dr. Pusey?
21624Is this your idea of life?
21624My Doctor says,"Do you feel as if you could manage a chop?
21624Need I say that I allude to the vexed question of the Athanasian Creed?"
21624No?
21624Non tibi Natus Quem jam signavit Diva Loquela suum?
21624Perhaps the venue was laid in a fox- hunting country, and then the air was full of such voices as these:"Were you out with the Squire to- day?"
21624Requies data nulla loquelæ Quæ miseras aures his et ubique premit?
21624Shocking, is n''t it?
21624The Dean smiled, with the graceful pleasure of an old man honoured by a younger one, and said,"Yes?
21624Then"the courtly manners of the old school"--when did they go out?
21624Then, again, as a mere matter of style, when did Doctors abandon the majestic"We,"which formerly they shared with Kings and Editors?
21624Then, again, when was it first recognized as possible to take a pulse without the assistance of a gold chronometer?
21624This petulant ejaculation drew from Dr. Butler the following remonstrance: Semper ego auditor?
21624To one rather bumptious youth he said:--"And what are you going to do with your life?"
21624What is your ambition?
21624What was the influence which tamed him?
21624What was the next step to be?
21624What was the text?"
21624What would he have felt if he had lived to see the Reform Bills of 1867 and 1885?
21624What''s this?
21624When I came in to dress, this dialogue ensued:"Have you left all those cards?"
21624When did doctors abandon black cloth, and betake themselves( like Newman, when he seceded to the Church of Rome) to grey trousers?
21624Where can we see such beautiful women, such gallant cavaliers, such fine horses, such brilliant equipages?
21624Where did you get it from?"
21624Which is it?
21624Why did not Lord Beaconsfield dissolve Parliament in July, 1878, when he returned in a blaze of triumph from the Congress of Berlin?
21624Why?"
21624Will you come across the Thames, and lend us a hand?"
21624Will you come?"
21624Would this content you?
21624You know he''s an atheist?
21624You, young lover, Drumming her old ones forth from town, Know you the secret none discover?

32813How can I choose a wife by deputy?
32813How does your Grace like the Queen?
32813How like you the look of the city, sweetheart?
32813Must I needs against my will put my neck into the yoke?
32813Sire,said Cromwell to the King,"the Pope refuses you a divorce... why wait for his consent?
32813Why are you sorry for her?
32813Why, darling,said the King,"how happeneth it you are not merrier?
32813But how?
32813Every Englishman is master in his own house, and why should not you be so in England?
32813Had not his new French brother- in- law done the like years ago?
32813Had not the Pope given his dispensation?
32813My health is metely good; and I trust in God, he that sent me the last( illness?)
32813Now, I think I have satisfied you.... What else do you want to know?
32813One said she excelled the Duchess( of Milan?)
32813Other kings had obtained divorces easily enough from Rome: why not he?
32813Ought a foreign prelate to share your power with you?
32813The Admiral of France, already in no very amiable mood, frowned angrily, and, turning to her, said,"Are you laughing at me, madam, or what?"
32813The King is also said to fancy a daughter of Mistress Albart(?)
32813Turning to Russell, he asked,"Do you think this woman so fair or of such beauty as report has made her?"
32813What did Ayala advise?
32813What more could wife or stateswoman ask?
32813Where was he?
32813Why lose so much time?
32813Why should she write to him before he wrote to her?
32813Would the lady, he asked, make a formal protestation before notaries that she was free from all contracts?
32813Your kingdom is a two- headed monster: will you bear such an anomaly any longer?
32813[ 186]"And how about Milan?"
32813continued the King,"whom should men trust?
32813doth it to the best and will shortly turn it(_ i.e._ like?)
32813he asked; and did not the peace of England and Spain depend upon the marriage?
32813he said,"is it not as I told you?
32813is not the Queen abed yet?"
32813is there no other remedy?"
32813when he had political objects to serve?
36967Why did he do it? 36967 Why did he do it? 36967 Why did he?
36967remarked to him,"I believe you are of the family of the Duke of Somerset?"
10797In wax, madam?
10797Sir?
10797The young prince, sir?
10797WHO''S YOUR FAT FRIEND?
10797Yes, in wax, I suppose?
10797''Ah,''cried the Beau,''how d''ye do, Byng?
10797''And does that thought affect thee too, The thought of Sylvio''s death, That he who only breath''d for you, Must yield that faithful breath?
10797''And pray, sir, who is that fine looking person?''
10797''And the carriage?''
10797''And who caught the huge salmon so neatly?''
10797''And, I say, William, you''ll see Lizzy goes to schule reg''lar?''
10797''And, I say, William, you''ll see Tommy''s breeches is mended against he goes to schule again?''
10797''And, I say, William, you''ll see the old sow do n''t kill her young uns?''
10797''Are not the devils escaped out of the swine, and overrunning the earth headlong?''
10797''Ask''st thou how long my love will stay, When all that''s new is past?
10797''Because the wise men came from the East,''''So, then, sa- ar-- you think me a fool?''
10797''Bless me, is it Queen Street?''
10797''Certainly, sir; would you like any more?--fifty or a hundred?''
10797''Did you ever,''he once asked,''dine out in the country?
10797''Do you not think Denman handsome?''
10797''Does he canter well?''
10797''Have you not received our letter?''
10797''How does he know we will_ permit_ him?
10797''It ca n''t be Charles Street?''
10797''It must be Oxford Street?''
10797''King Street?''
10797''My mother, when I learn''d that thou wast dead, Say, wast thou conscious of the tears I shed?
10797''Nay, my good fellow,''was the answer to this peroration,''travelling from the East?
10797''No?
10797''Now, Madam,''writes his friend,''is not this true inspiration as well as true wit?
10797''Pay your bills, sir?
10797''Perhaps, sir, you mean John Street?''
10797''She asked my father,''Horace Walpole relates,''what the alteration might possibly cost?''
10797''Then who was it killed the wild duck at that distance?''
10797''Two or three?''
10797''Was it your setter who behaved so well?''
10797''Well, do you return to dinner?''
10797''What better foundation for friendship,''he asks,''than similarity of tastes?''
10797''What could I do, my dear_ fellar_,''he lisped,''when I actually saw Lady Mary eat cabbage?''
10797''What have you done, Madame,''said a foreigner to her,''with the poor man I used to see here, who never spoke a word?''
10797''Who''s your friend, Brummell?''
10797''Who?''
10797''Whom?

10797''Why, what?''
10797''You know Gunter?''
10797--''And, I say, William, you''ll see I''m laid proper in the yard?''
10797--''Are you?''
10797--''Well, what is my Lord Holland to me?''
10797Again:''Dear George, were not the playing- fields at Eton food for all manner of flights?
10797And for what?
10797Appeal to whom?
10797Are you?''
10797At Brookes''one evening the Beau and the Brewer were playing at the same table,''Come,_ Mash- tub_'', cried the''gentleman,''''what do you set?''
10797Boswell.--''Did not he think of exhibiting you, sir?''
10797But where are those Anakim of the bottle, who_ could_ floor their two of port and one of Madeira, though the said two and one floored them in turn?
10797Could anything be more gross or more ill- bred?
10797Could she have picked out a fitter person to be gracious to?
10797Could she have talked so pleasantly to Selwyn?''
10797Did he storm?
10797Do you mind showing me his paces?''
10797Do you wonder I say better things than anybody?''
10797For whom, for what should he dress and polish his boots at such a quiet place as Caen?
10797God forgive us, we are all sinners; and if we weep not for this man''s deficiency, how shall we ask tears when our day comes?
10797God grant that they may be so; or who of us would escape?
10797Had any one asked him in which of the four quarters of the world Guinea is situated, could he have told?''
10797He said,"In wax, I suppose?"
10797Hovered thy spirit o''er thy sorrowing son?
10797How could it be otherwise?
10797How long, ah Delia, can I say How long my life will last?
10797How, indeed, could he?
10797In 1762 the Doctor, hearing they had given Sheridan a pension of two hundred a year, exclaimed,''What have they given_ him_ a pension?
10797In the midst of his difficulties he never ceased to entertain his friends, and''why should he not do so, since he had not to pay?''
10797Is there no_ court_ in England but the king''s?
10797It is because they are cleverer?
10797My_ dear_ sir, what an unfortunate blunder; wrong house-- what must you think of such an intrusion?
10797People as good as the Walpoles lived in their gable- ended, moderate- sized mansions; and who was Sir Robert, to set them at so immense a distance?
10797Sheridan was not naturally mean, though he descended to meanness when hard pressed-- what man of his stamp does not?
10797Suddenly, nudging Sir James, he whispered,''Is that the great Sir Sydney Smith?''
10797The age that patronises a''Punch''every Saturday?
10797The''Wales, ring the bell,''was sufficient proof of his impudence, but''Who''s your fat friend?''
10797Then he had some £ 25,000 as capital and how could he best invest it?
10797There is the_ Court_ of Chancery, the_ Court_ of Exchequer, the_ Court_ of King''s Bench,& c."Do n''t you love her?

10797Walpole?''
10797Was it worth the pomp of the splendid funeral and the grand hypocrisy of grief with which it was borne to Westminster Abbey?
10797Was not rather the wretched old man, while he yet struggled on in life, worth this outlay, worth this show of sympathy?
10797Well might George II., seeing him go to court say:''I see Dodington here sometimes, what does he come for?''

10797What do you think my Lady intends?''
10797What great authors have not experienced the same disappointments?
10797What have wits and beaux and men of society to do with poets and beggars?
10797What is it that disarms us when we review thy life, and wrings from us a tear when we should utter a reproach?
10797What is it?
10797What prayer can wild, unrestrained, unheeding Genius utter with more fervency?
10797What publisher will consent to undertake a work because some lord or lady recommended it to his notice?
10797What recked the dead of the four noble pall- bearers-- the Duke of Bedford, the Earl of Lauderdale, Earl Mulgrave, and the Bishop of London?
10797What writer cares for individual opinion, except as it tends to sweep up the gross amount of public blame or censure?
10797When Craggs got into a coach with him, he exclaimed,''Why, Arthur, I am always getting up behind, are not you?''
10797When asked by some one, as he sauntered out of the house--''Is the House up?''
10797When seeing him beneath, she put her head out, and called out to him,''Good evening, Mr. Brummell, wo n''t you come up and take tea?''
10797When the bishops entered in full episcopal costume, she applied to Hook to know who were''those gentlemen?''

10797Who can say the same of a successful barrister, or of a popular orator?
10797Who cares whether his hopes of political preferment were or were not gratified?
10797Who minds whether the time- serving Bubb Dodington went over to Lord Bute or not?
10797Who now cares much for the court intrigues which severed Sir Robert Walpole and Bubb Dodington?
10797Who would be so naïve as to sneer at the author of''The Art of Dining?''
10797Who would live the life of revelry that Sheridan lived to have such an end?
10797Why did he not live quietly?
10797Why, forsooth?
10797[ 8: Another version is that Tom replied:''You do n''t happen to have it about you, sir, do you?'']
10797and his son, during which each party devoutly wished the other dead?
10797did he hold her to her engagement?
10797did he shackle himself with a young wife, who would only learn to hate him for his persinacity?
10797do n''t I grow old?''
10797gambler, spendthrift, debtor, as thou wert, what is it that shakes from our hand the stone we would fling at thee?
10797how could you do that?''
10797how do you know?''
10797just so; Piccadilly, of course?''
10797was it worth £ 500--diseased, rotting as it was, and about to be given for nothing to mother earth?
10797why not, like Fox, marry the unhappy woman whom he had made the mother of his children, and content himself with trimming vines and rearing tulips?
28268Does M. Fabre not feel himself turning French again?
28268Does Monsieur write comedies or tragedies?
28268_ Uom, sei tu grande o vile? 28268 After every sentence almost he would ask, in Italian,''Do you understand?'' 28268 And as to harm to the institutions of society, what were those institutions, and what was their value, that they should be respected? 28268 And what were these scruples? 28268 As to him, why should he condescend to think about state receptions, galas, pensions, kings and queens, and similar low things? 28268 But who can tell what there may have been before beneath the surface? 28268 But who should mould that matter? 28268 Did Alfieri enjoy receiving letters such as these? 28268 Did it never occur to Alfieri that his own character, whose faults during youth he so keenly appreciated, was not improving with years? 28268 Give up Louise d''Albany, forget her; and bid her, who lived only in him, whom a few years must free, forget him at the price of breaking her heart? 28268 I am a useless creature in it; and why should I suffer when it is of no use to anyone? 28268 I do nothing in this world; I am useless in it; and where is the use of suffering for nothing? 28268 I feel a disgust for life which is so reasoned out that I say to myself sometimes,''Why do I live? 28268 If she will take no interest, will not Fabre? 28268 Mori, il saprai._("Man, art thou noble or base?

28268To please society?
28268To please whom should they marry, pray?
28268Was it because her husband had called himself King of England, or because her lover was the author of the play about to be performed?
28268We were separated, and who could tell how long our separation might not last?
28268What are the French?
28268What consideration need any man or any woman waste upon a husband?
28268What could he do?
28268What do I do in this world?
28268What good do I do?''
28268What if Cardinal York should take part with his brother?
28268What if the Tuscan Court should listen to the Count of Albany''s entreaties?
28268What injury could their living together now do to Charles Edward, who had relinquished all his husband''s rights?
28268What possible disgrace could come to a woman in having a lover?
28268What was it to her which got the upper hand?
28268When shall I see the end of my woes?
28268Who knows whether I shall ever see it?
28268Whom?"
28268Why should they get married?
28268Would he not appreciate its usefulness and uniqueness sufficiently to see that it did not turn to a mere useless and demoralising love affair?
28268d''Albany came home in her Court toilette, and told him of all these fine doings?
28268was this the realisation of ideal love?
37000What have I to fear?
13674''And from whence come you, sir?''
13674''And where is he?''
13674''Nay,''said the squire,''that will I not do: wherefore should I give it thee?''
13674''Sir,''said he,''I hight John of Hellenes; but what is your name?''
13674''Well, sir,''quoth Redman,''what will you now that I shall do?
13674''What,''said Tyler,''art thou there?
13674''Who be you?''
13674''Who be you?''
13674''Whom have ye taken?''
13674''Why so, sir?''
13674''Yea truly,''said the king,''wherefore sayest thou?''
13674''Yes truly,''quoth the mayor,''thou false stinking knave, shalt thou speak thus in the presence of the king my natural lord?
13674Ah, Percivale, said she, would ye fight with him?
13674Ah, fair nephew, said she, when heard ye tidings of your mother?
13674Ah, fair sir, said Bors, know ye me not?
13674Ah, said he, are ye Galahad?
13674All this Sir Launcelot saw and beheld, for he slept not verily; and he heard him say: O sweet Lord, when shall this sorrow leave me?
13674And he answered and saluted him again, and asked him: What is your name?
13674And men asked him how men might know them that should best do and to achieve the Sangreal?
13674And now, being revived, where are any better to be found?
13674And so rode he into a forest, and there he met with a gentlewoman riding upon a white palfrey, and then she asked him: Sir knight, whither ride ye?
13674And then he alit off his horse, and said: Fair sweet brother, when came ye hither?
13674And then he asked Sir Percivale: How hast thou done sith I departed?
13674And then he said to the man: Canst thou tell me unto some chapel where that I may bury this body?
13674And then he said: Ah, Melias, who hath wounded you?
13674And then they said all: O my lord Sir Launcelot, be that ye?
13674And then this dead man hermit said unto them: Ween you to burn me?
13674And when the French king saw these four knights return again, he tarried till they came to him and said:''Sirs, what tidings?''
13674And while the king said so, Tyler said to the mayor:''A God''s name what have I said to displease thee?''
13674And wotest thou wherefore?
13674But how am I fallen from the market into the ale- house?
13674But how far have I waded in this point, or how far may I sail in such a large sea?
13674But then she said: Sir Percivale, wot ye what I am?
13674But what do I spend my time in the rehearsal of these filthinesses?
13674But what do I talk of these things, or desire the suppression of bodgers, being a minister?
13674But what for that?
13674But what have I to do with this matter, or rather so great a quantity, wherewith I am not acquainted?
13674But what is that in all the world which avarice and negligence will not corrupt and impair?
13674But what stand I upon this impertinent discourse?
13674But whither am I digressed?
13674But whither am I slipped?
13674But who dare find fault with them, when they have once a licence?
13674Damosel, said Sir Percivale, who hath disherited you?
13674Damosel, why say you so?
13674Fair lords, said he, what adventure brought you hither?
13674For, beside the injury received of their superiors, how was King John dealt withal by the vile Cistertians at Lincoln in the second of his reign?
13674How may that be?
13674Howbeit, what care our great encroachers?
13674If I would not refuse you?
13674Is that sooth?
13674It shall be done, said Galahad, but where is he that hath wounded you?
13674Knew ye not the maid?
13674Madam, said he, what would ye that I did?
13674Now tell me, said Sir Bors, what is that Pridam le Noire?
13674Now who taught you my name?
13674Now wotest thou what I am?
13674Now, fair aunt, tell me what is the knight?
13674Now, said Galahad, is she here for whom this castle was lost?
13674Now, said Galahad, where shall we find the gentlewoman that shall make new girdles to the sword?
13674Now, said King Evelake, where shall I put this shield, that this worthy knight may have it?
13674Now, said the fellowship, what is the name of the sword, and what shall we call it?
13674Of what folks shall it be?
13674Say me, said Sir Bors, canst thou tell me of any adventure?
13674Shall I go any further?
13674Sir, said Bors, be ye a priest?
13674Sir, said Galahad, by this shield be many marvels fallen?
13674Sir, said Galahad, why shall not these other fellows go with us?
13674Sir, said Gawaine, can thou teach us to any hermit?
13674Sir, said Sir Bors unto Sir Launcelot, what adventure hath brought you hither, for we weened tomorn to have found you at Camelot?
13674Sir, said Sir Percivale, what signifieth my dream that I dreamed this night?
13674Sir, said he, be ye of King Arthur''s court and of the fellowship of the Round Table?
13674Sir, said she, why would ye wit?
13674Sir, said the good man, be ye not Sir Launcelot du Lake?
13674Sir, said the old man, of whence be ye?
13674Sir, said the squire, what is your name?
13674Sir, what penance shall I do?
13674Sirs, said Sir Galahad, what adventure brought you hither?
13674So a lady that stood by the queen said: Madam, for God''s sake ought he of right to be so good a knight?
13674So when he was unarmed, then said the damosel: Madam, shall we abide here all this day?
13674Their fardingals, and diversely coloured nether stocks of silk, jerdsey, and such like, whereby their bodies are rather deformed than commended?
13674Then Sir Galahad was a little ashamed and said: Madam, sith ye know in certain, wherefore do ye ask it me?
13674Then Sir Launcelot said: Father, what shall I do?
13674Then asked he him: Hast thou heard the tokens o£ thy dream the which I have told to you?
13674Then came Bors to the maid and said: How seemeth it you?
13674Then came the queen unto Launcelot, and said: Will ye leave us at this high feast?
13674Then first spake Gawaine and said: Ector, have ye heard these words?
13674Then he overtook a man clothed in a religious clothing, and rode on a strong black horse blacker than a bear, and said: Sir knight, what seek you?
13674Then said Sir Launcelot: Cometh this desire of himself?
13674Then said he to Galahad: Son, wotest thou what I hold betwixt my hands?
13674Then said he: Ye be welcome, but of whence be ye?
13674Then said she: Who shall let me blood?
13674Then said the gentlewoman: Percivale, wot ye what I am?
13674Then said the good man unto Launcelot: Of whence be ye?
13674Then said the good man: Were ye confessed sith ye entered into the quest of the Sangreal?
13674Then she made sorrow and said: Ah, Lord God, wherefore granted ye to hold my land, whereof I should now be disherited without reason and right?
13674Then the king answered quickly and said:''Wherefore?
13674Then the king said:''Is my son dead or hurt or on the earth felled?''
13674Then the lord Clermont said:''Chandos, how long have ye taken on you to bear my device?''
13674Then the lords said among themselves:''What shall we do?
13674Then will ye make me a knight?
13674There were many within the city of their accord, and so they drew together and said:''Why do we not let these good people enter into the city?
13674Thus, said she, was not King Pelles, your grandsire, maimed for his hardiness?
13674Well, said Sir Percivale, what wouldst thou that I did?
13674Well, said they, will ye die?
13674What are ye, said Sir Percivale, that proffered me thus great kindness?
13674What are ye?
13674What are ye?
13674What be they?
13674What have we deserved, or why should we be kept thus in servage?
13674What have ye seen?
13674What knight was he that had you in the forest?
13674What seek ye in this country?
13674What shall I give you?
13674What should I say of their doublets with pendant codpieces on the breast full of jags and cuts, and sleeves of sundry colours?
13674What should I speak of the Cheviot Hills, which reach twenty miles in length?
13674What thing have ye seen?
13674What will ye that I shall do?
13674What will ye with me?
13674When the people of Paris saw their king depart, they came to him and kneeled down and said:''Ah, sir and noble king, what will ye do?
13674Where any greater commodity to be raised by them?
13674Where is my cousin the prince of Wales?
13674Whereto should I write long process?
13674Why should I not pass the water?
13674Why, said Colgrevance, is this sooth that ye will slay him?
13674Why, said Galahad; will ye all have ado with me at once?
13674Why, said Lionel, will ye let me?
13674Why?
13674Will ye ensure me this as ye be a true knight?
13674With whom, said Sir Percivale, shall I fight?
13674Yea, sir forsooth, said he; why, sir, ask ye me that?
13674and when shall the holy vessel come by me, wherethrough I shall be blessed?
13674leave thus this noble city of Paris?''
13674of the Black Mountains in Wales, which go from([ 1]) to([ 1]) miles at the least in length?
13674of the Clee Hills in Shropshire, which come within four miles of Ludlow, and are divided from some part of Worcester by the Leme?
13674what have we to do with such Arabian and Grecian stuff as is daily brought from those parties which lie in another clime?
13674what will ye say?''
34477Is there not wars?
34477And, after all, what could, or would, the dissentients do about it?
34477Are we going to allow their sacrifices to be as naught?
34477But what about Ireland?
34477Did they mean the right to Home Rule, or to the constitution of 1782 or to an Irish Republic?
34477How could they accomplish this?
34477If men had died for Ireland( men asked) facing the old enemy, what lesser sacrifice could be called too great?
34477If officers refused to act against Ulster why should a private be required to fire upon strikers?
34477If officers were to have the option of obeying orders or not at their will why should a like latitude be denied the common soldier?
34477Ireland one and Ireland free-- is not this the definition of Ireland a Nation?
34477It was followed by"Shall Ireland be Divided?"
34477Or are we going to follow in their footsteps at the Rising of the Moon?"
34477Sinn Fein was involved in the general feeling; if it had not fomented the Rising, what had it done to discourage it?
34477The official statement was pitilessly analysed in a pamphlet published by_ New Ireland_ entitled"The Plot: German or English?"
34477They regarded ignorance as barbarous and disgraceful; and what was ignorance if it was not inability to write, read, and speak the English tongue?
34477They underrated( as who then did not?)
34477They were, besides, likely to give rise to the question which_ Irish Opinion_( the Irish Labour weekly) put"Is the object political or economic?"
34477Two books written by James K. Maguire and printed by the Wolfe Tone Publishing Co. of New York,"What Could Germany do for Ireland?"
34477Was it not the stimulus which had spurred more daring spirits into action?
34477Was the freedom of Ireland then not a matter of right but the result of a bargain-- the equivalent of how many fighting men?
34477What is the use of bilingualism to a dead man?"
34477Who draws first blood for Ireland?
34477Who imputes blame to them for this?
34477Who strikes the first blow for Ireland?
34477Who wins a wreath that will be green for ever?"
34477Why not unite and get rid of the English?
34477Would the two Irish parties sink their differences in the same way in the interest of the Empire?

25804Then he said:''Sweetheart, you will forget this?''
25804Then my master strokes me down, and says:"Jenny, old girl, I''m sorry to fluster you so, but we must make a bit for the bairns at home, eh, old girl?"
25804Very disgusting, was n''t it?
25804What about the pavements?
25804What are you laughing at?
25804What can he want?
25804What could she do?
25804What do you think they do with it then?
25804What is he doing?
25804What must it be to see them in their own native forests flying about among the green trees?
25804What were others doing to stop the spread of the infection?
25804What were they to do?
25804What''s that you''re giving me?
25804When did the people begin gathering up in the streets to see the King on his way to be crowned?
25804When the sentinel who keeps watch hears them, he calls out,''Who goes there?''
25804When will it stop?
25804Where does all the meat come from, and the fruit and the flowers and vegetables, and all the things that must be kept fresh?
25804Where does the shopman buy them?
25804Which of the three gaping yellow mouths will get the delicious morsel?
25804Why did they not come?
25804Why, yes, do n''t laugh; I could not walk up a chicken- ladder, could I?
25804Will you give me something?''
25804Yes, they can, of course, but where do the shopmen get their stuff from?
25804You have heard of bank- notes, perhaps?
25804You remember the story of the giant who used to be quiet so long as the people brought him enough to eat?
25804You''ve never caught a seal in your life?
25804how could you?''
25804married her because she was the sister of Edward V., and so the York and Lancaster sides were joined in one?
25804the Indian elephant answers,''is there anything like it, that plunge after a long, hot, sleepy day, when one has stood about under the trees?
37216But how did this Saint come to be connected with Scotland?
37216Do you not think that is a mistake?
37216How many helpings?
37216Is it not curious to think, children, how races and religions have come to be linked together by small things?
37216PANCAKE TUESDAY Pancake Tuesday is quite a nice name is it not?
37216That is a little odd is it not?
17411( 38) Who informed Margaret, that she might inform Perkin, of what passed in sanctuary?
17411And had such weak step been taken, could the murder itself have remained a problem?
17411And if guilty, how came she to stop the career of her intrigues?
17411And in favour of whom?
17411And who can believe his pretended confession afterwards?
17411And who can tell whether the suddenness of the execution was not the effect of necessity?
17411Are there outward and visible signs of a bloody nature?
17411As to the heads of the Yorkists;(47) how does it appear they concurred in the projected match?
17411Ay; and who told her what passed in the Tower?
17411But being unlikely, was it not more natural for him to think, that it never was urged by Richard?
17411But can this accusation be allowed gravely?
17411But how could lord Bacon stop there?
17411But why was no enquiry made after Greene and the page?
17411Can it be doubted now but that Richard meant to have it thought that his assumption of the crown was only temporary?
17411Could Richard be guilty, and the archbishops be blameless?
17411Could Sir Thomas More be ignorant of this fact?
17411Could a Yorkist have drawn a less disgusting representation?
17411Could both be ignorant what was become of the young princes, when both had negotiated with the queen dowager?
17411Could not the whole court, the whole kingdom of England, so cross- examine this Flemish youth, as to catch him in one lie?
17411Did Grafton hear it pronounced?
17411Did Henry stand in his way, deposed, imprisoned, and now childless?
17411Did Perkin or did he not correspond in his narrative with Tirrel and Dighton?
17411Did he publish his narrative to obscure or elucidate the transaction?
17411Did he try to leave it so?
17411Did king James bestow his kinswoman on Perkin, on the strength of such a fable?
17411Did not they to the end endeavour to defeat and overturn it?
17411Did that look like poison?
17411Does a lie become venerable from its age?
17411Does antiquity consecrate darkness?
17411Does it require more time to ripen a foetus, that is, to prove a destroyer, than it takes to form an Aristides?
17411Does uncertainty of where a man has been, prove his non- identity when he appears again?
17411Had so politic a man any interest to leave the matter doubtful?
17411Had they trumpeted about the story of their own guilt and infamy, till Henry, after Perkin''s appearance, found it necessary to publish it?
17411Has not this the appearance of some curiosity in the king on the subject of the princes, of whose fate he was uncertain?
17411Has this the air of a forced and precipitate election?
17411How came she to know accurately and authentically a tale which no mortal else knew?
17411How did it import Richard in what manner the young prince was put to death?
17411How many general persecutions does the church record, of which there is not the smallest trace?
17411If he did how was it possible for him to know it?
17411If he did not know it, what was so obvious as his detection?
17411If he did not, is it morally credible that Henry would not have made those variations public?
17411If she was fully assured of their deaths, could Henry, after he came to the crown and had married her daughter, be uncertain of it?
17411If they were illegitimate, so was their sister; and if she was, what title had she conveyed to her son Henry the Eighth?
17411If they were not destroyed in his days, in whose days were they murdered?
17411If this fine story of Buckingham and Percival is not true, what becomes of Sir Thomas More''s credit, on which the whole fabric leans?
17411If those views did not, as is probable, take root in his heart till long afterwards, what interest had Richard to murder an unhappy young prince?
17411In short, what did Henry ever muffle and disguise but the truth?
17411Indeed who were the heads of that party?
17411Is it credible that Richard would have made use of this woman''s name again, if he had employed it heretofore to blacken Hastings?
17411Is it credible that Richard, if the murderer, would have exhibited this unnecessary mummery, only to revive the memory of his own guilt?
17411Is it not rather a base way of insinuating a slander, of which no proof could be given?
17411Is it not, that Hastings really was plotting to defeat the new settlement contrary to the intention of the three estates?
17411Is it possible to renew the charge, and not recollect this acquittal?
17411Is it probable that the Earl of Lincoln gave out, that the elder had been murdered?
17411Is it therefore probable, that he acted so silly a farce as to make his brother''s mistress do penance?
17411Is this evidence?
17411Is this full?
17411Is this your brother?
17411Margaret, duchess of Burgundy, Elizabeth duchess of Suffolk, and her children; did they ever concur in that match?
17411Necessity rather than law justified her proceedings, but what excuse can be made for her faction having recourse to arms?
17411Of the issue of Clarence, whom she had contributed to have put to death, or in favour of an impostor?
17411Of what importance is it to any man living whether or not he was as bad as he is represented?
17411On such occasions do arbitrary princes want tools?
17411Or does it not indicate a voluntary concurrence of the nobility?
17411Or, what prince ever spoke of such a scandal, and what is stronger, of such contempt of his authority, with so much lenity and temper?
17411Richard had married her daughter; but what claim had Henry to her inheritance?
17411Still farther: why was Perkin never confronted with the queen dowager, with Henry''s own queen, and with the princesses, her sisters?
17411The mistress of Edward she notoriously was; but what if, in Richard''s pursuit of the crown, no question at all was made of this Elizabeth Lucy?
17411This man, Clifford, was bribed back to Henry''s service; and what was the consequence?
17411This was indeed essential to Henry to know; but what did it proclaim to the nation?
17411Thus far we may credit him-- but what man of common sense can believe, that Richard went so far as publicly to asperse the honor of his own mother?
17411Was Edward''s court so virtuous or so humane, that it could furnish no assassin but the first prince of the blood?
17411Was he not conducted to Paul''s cross, and openly examined by the nobility?
17411Was it ever pretended that Perkin failed in his part?
17411Was it his interest to save Edward''s character at the expence of his own?
17411Was it his matter to muffle any point that he could clear up, especially when it behoved him to have it cleared?
17411Was not Lambert himself taken into Henry''s service, and kept in his court for the same purpose?
17411Was not it consonant to all Henry''s policy of involving every thing in obscure and general terms?
17411Was not she singularly capable of describing to Perkin, her nephew, whom she had never seen?
17411Was this sufficient specification of the murder of a king?
17411Were the duchess(15) and her daughters silent on so scandalous an insinuation?
17411What became of it?
17411What can be said against king James of Scotland, who bestowed a lady of his own blood in marriage on Perkin?
17411What could stagger the allegiance of such trust and such connexions, but the firm persuation that Perkin was the true duke of York?
17411What feature in this portrait gives any idea of a monster?
17411What has he left a mystery?
17411What interest had Henry to manage a widow of Burgundy?
17411What is there in this account that looks like poison; Does it not prove that Richard would not hasten the death of his queen?
17411What now becomes of Sir Thomas More''s informers, and of their narrative, which he thought hard but must be true?
17411What then is the presumption?
17411What truth indeed could be expected, when even the identity of person is uncertain?
17411When the house of commons undertook to colour the king''s resentment, was every member of it too scrupulous to lend his hand to the deed?
17411Who can believe if Richard meditated the murder, that he took no care to sift Brakenbury before he left London?
17411Who can believe that he would trust so atrocious a commission to a letter?
17411Who had heard of her guilt?
17411Who knows that they were not applied to?
17411Who was handsomer than Alexander, Augustus, or Louis the Fourteenth?
17411Who were rendered uncapable to inherit but Edward the Fifth, his brother and sisters?
17411Who would not vindicate Henry the Eighth or Charles the Second, if found to be falsely traduced?
17411Why did he not conjecture that there was no proof of that tale?
17411Why did he not convict Perkin out of his own mouth?
17411Why then not Richard the Third?
17411Why was it whimsical in Carte to exercise the same spirit of criticism?
17411Why were they never asked, is this your son?
17411Would he have loitered at York at such a crisis, if he had intended to step into the throne?
17411Would not the act have specified the daughters of Edward the Fourth if the sons had been dead?
17411Yet how did Richard the Third treat his nephew and competitor, the young Warwick?
17411Yet what was the behaviour of the archbishop?
17411and what did he try to muffle?
17411and why was his whole conduct so different in the cases of Lambert and Perkin, if their cases were not totally different?
17411or, if ignorant, where is his competence as an historian?
17411whom shall a man trust?
36184And do you mean to disobey the king as well as your father?
36184Can our mother hear this and live?
36184Do ye hear the children weeping, O my brothers, Ere the sorrow comes with years? 36184 He is worth loving, is he not?"
36184How did he die?
36184How fares it with the king and my Edward?
36184Is it true,he cried,"that John, the child of my heart, the best beloved of all my sons, has forsaken me?"
36184Oh, where is my dear sister?
36184What is his name?
36184What shall I do with it?
36184Why was she not hunting in the park?
36184Lord Russell asked for pen, ink, paper, and the use of any papers he had, adding,"May I have somebody to write for me?"
36184Passing through the park he saw that the members of the household were hunting, but where was the Lady Jane?
36184Then, when she reaches the place, she stops, stoops down, and what does she find?
36184Why should not her son reign when his father, grandfather, and great- grandfather had reigned before him?
36184and returning to the room he inquired tenderly,"And how are you to- day my poor child?"
36184cried the mother, clasping her little golden- haired Margaret to her bosom,"Where is Renà ©, my lord?
36184what, mean ye to weep, and break my heart?"
37519Having surveyed the structure with great astonishment, the earl asked him"how he liked it?"
37519He was a thief-- a thief?
37519Twice twenty mounted Moors he overthrew, Singly on foot, some wounded, some he slew, Dispersed the rest-- what more could Sampson do?
33755And the Briton himself-- what became of him?
33755But how is one to describe the confused play of forces in a cyclone which has centres within centres?
33755But it could not be much, he thought, as he had all the nobles, and how could there be a rising{ 262} without nobles?
33755Could anything else have been expected?
33755Dismayed at the swiftness of the movement, England hesitated; but how could she{ 235} deny her colony the right of self- defence?
33755Had this people the right, or had they not the right to plant a State bearing a foreign flag, which should effectually bar the path to the north?
33755If engines could be made to plough through the water, why might they not also be made to walk the earth?
33755If such was the condition of the honest{ 153} working poor, what was that of the criminal?
33755Is England richer or poorer for this outpouring of blood and treasure?
33755Is it a wonder that there was always disorder and violence from a chronic tithe- war in Ireland, which it is said has cost a million of lives?
33755Is it strange that Sydney Smith said no abuse as great could be found in Timbuctoo?
33755Is it strange that the plantation in Massachusetts had fresh recruits?
33755Is not every type of English manhood explained by such an inheritance?
33755Or did the splendid heroism of Wallace, and the spirit it evoked in the people, awaken a slumbering patriotism in his own romantic soul?
33755Should the English Government allow a people fiercely antagonistic to itself to build up an unfriendly State on its border?
33755Then Banquo said,''How is it ye gaif to my companyeon not onlie landis and gret rentis, bot Kingdomes, and gevis me nocht?''
33755Was it not from their impious hands, that this new knowledge of the physical universe had been received?
33755Was it through a complicated struggle of forces, in which ambition played the greatest part?
33755Was it worth seven{ 271} years of such struggle to emancipate the land from a foreign tyranny, only to have it fall into a degrading domestic one?
33755Was the man mad?
33755Was there a man dismay''d?
33755What are we to conclude?
33755What did death matter, in form however terrible, to one who was to be so remembered nearly five centuries later by Scotland''s greatest bard?
33755What sort of a race were they?
33755What would be the need of a Parliament, if he did not require money?
33755Whether it was premeditated, or in the heat of passion, who could say?
33755Who was the Lady Cæsair, who fled with her household to Ireland from the coming deluge after being refused shelter by Noah?
33755With king so false, and with justice so polluted at its fountain, what hope was there for the people but in Revolution?
33755and who Nemehd, the next colonist from the East, who heads the royal procession of one hundred and eighteen kings?
35884But then, he knows a lot about most things, do n''t he, sir?
35884Do you know what he called the Communion?
35884Do you not agree with me?
35884For the latter subject I could no doubt"mug up,"as Arthur Pendennis did for his articles in the_ Pall Mall Gazette_; but_ cui bono_?
35884His reply was,"But why should I hurry over what is my chief pleasure?
35884How can I tell in what a state this may find you at Rome?
35884I know the Roman ones are often made of spun silk, but you can have them of other stuff, too, can you not?
35884I suppose she is not a Garibaldian, by the way?
35884Query: If some philosophers are right in thinking that space, as well as time, is purely subjective, may not this have something to do with it?
35884What other throne So meet for him who called those hearts his own?
35884Will you not leave Rome and all its troubles, and pay a good long visit to Sneyd and me in a country where the Church is in a missionary character?
35884Would they be likely in this state to do themselves justice in an examination held a few hours later?
35884_ Whereabouts is it_?
35884indeed?"
35884you surely do n''t mean_ Rome_?"
36383''Do you know what a Proctor is, Sir?''
36383''From Canada?''
36383''I do n''t like tandems, do you?''
36383''Wete ye not wher stondeth a litel toun, Which that ycleped is Bob up- and- doun, Under the blee in Canterbury way?''
36383''Where is the shrine?''
36383But presently she said,''Are you going back soon?''
36383Did I want to be driven into Canterbury, indeed?
36383Did we like tandems?
36383Do you like tandems?
36383Do you like tandems?''
36383Every now and then he would dart from our side to ask each one in turn, in a gentle whisper,''You''re an American, are you not?''
36383How better could this be done than by riding over the ground made sacred by them on our tricycle?
36383If ours had no beginning, would it be a genuine pilgrimage?
36383This was to have been our starting- point; but how, it suddenly occurred to us for the first time, could we start from nothing?
36383Were we already in danger of forgetting the aim of our pilgrimage?
36383Would we sacrifice our great end for what we had intended to be but a means to it?
36383[ Illustration]''Are you the lady and gentleman that came on the tandem?''
36383and another,''How are you there, up in the second story?''
36383the priest exclaimed; and, without more ado, walked up to him and boldly addressed him thus:''Ahem!--I say now-- who are you, any way?''
37489Is it not of the Lord that the people shall labour in the very fire, and weary themselves for vanity? 37489 Fear you not some plague? 37489 Mr. Reeves''s sermon, preached 1655, are the following queries:--Can sin and the city''s safety, can impenitency and impunity stand long together?
37489No, with wringing hands you may ask, where are those sweet places where we traded, feasted, slept?
37489Should not my countenance be sad, when the city, the place of my father''s sepulchre, lieth waste, and the gates thereof are consumed with fire?
37489The great talk at that time was, who were the burners of the city?
37489where we lived like masters, and shone like morning stars?
34965Who fears to speak of''98?
34965After all, how has the earth been peopled, how have all the nations been formed but by migration?
34965But how could a hierarch of the State Church of Ireland fail to don its spirit with his mitre?
34965But how could there be a federation of two states, one of them enormously superior in power to the other?
34965But nominated by whom?
34965But what availed the workings of his own mind if all the time he was carrying on the policy of repression, misleading the nation thereby?
34965Can Sarsfield have thought that they did?
34965Could he fail to be an inveterate enemy of the law?
34965Had it not been made fearfully clear that the two races and religions could not dwell together in peace?
34965Had the French landed, would the potatoes have been still more hospitably shared?
34965How then was the policy of Ireland to be kept from breaking away from that of Great Britain?
34965How would its form be settled?
34965If Ireland were detached from Great Britain, into what hands would she fall?
34965Is Ireland generally capable of being turned with advantage into an arable country?
34965Is it vain to hope that for the settlement of a question so vital party may for one short hour suspend its war?
34965Is the shipping trade, for which the Irishman has had little opportunity of showing a turn, likely to increase?
34965Is the water- power of Ireland, now that electricity has been developed, likely to do what has been done for England by coal?
34965Suppose Ireland had remained the land of the Septs, would her lot certainly have been more happy?
34965Suppose Ireland severed from Great Britain, what would be her lot?
34965Was it anything in Irish blood or air, or was it the absence of the commercial element with its sobering influence?
34965Was this loyalty or fear?
34965Were remorse and regret ever breathed by Alva, Parma, or Tilly?
34965What can have produced such characters?
34965What did the soldiery of those Catholic commanders do when it stormed a Protestant town?
34965What sort of deliberative assembly would the federal council be?
34965What was now the state of things?
34965What would be the political constitution of an independent Ireland?
34965Will the Irish tenant be then able to discharge his liability to the State and have sufficient margin for living?
34965Would Catholic emancipation pacify Ireland?
34965Would a series of tribal wars among the clans themselves have been less horrible?
28773But,said Gordon,"are you not sorry?"
28773How is your mother?
28773Praise now humbles me, it does not elate me; did the world praise Jesus? 28773 Shall I see you there, Colonel?"
28773The Khedive said, after some circumlocution,''Was I not too friendly with Johannis?'' 28773 What pensions,"he asks,"have the widows and orphans whom Zebehr has made by the thousand?
28773Who could bear to have this disguise quite rent off, and the evil exposed to the eyes of the world? 28773 ''By whose authority teachest thou these things?'' 28773 ''Had I naught to do with it?'' 28773 ''Have not I done this or that?'' 28773 ''Who art thou to be afraid of man?'' 28773 And for what? 28773 Are there no thorns that compass it about? 28773 Before he had heard the news he had written:--Why am I not in the_ Gazette_?
28773Can I do or say anything to either to do good?
28773Did I not tell you at Haifa that if you could give me some work to do for the Lord, that would set my mind at rest?
28773Did K. send them by accident or on purpose?"
28773Do you think I sought this place?
28773Do you think that if I were to come to Jaffa, you could give me any work to do?"
28773Does your vast system of ceremonies, meetings, and services tend to lessen sin in the world?
28773During these three months, how are you to feed Khartoum?
28773For what is death to a believer?
28773From whom does all the money come?
28773Had he a heart to sympathise with the sufferings of his fellow- creatures, and to help them to wage war with sin and temptation?
28773How can it be otherwise?
28773How would the world receive me, if they knew what I really was, and what God knows that I am at this minute?
28773I say to the chief and people, How can Basutoland belong to Basutos?
28773If the old lady was too large to be perfectly well all over at the same time, may it not be said that in this respect China resembled her in 1860?
28773Is it credible that so_ many_ would wish it to be otherwise, and fight you about it?
28773Is it my present temperament, or is it truly the case that things go untowardly more in this land than anywhere else?
28773Is it not because ye speak to the flesh which is at enmity to all that is spiritual and must die( joy is only from the spirit)?...
28773Is it not comfortable?
28773Is it not what_ they_ would do elsewhere, if they could?"
28773May I ask you, during how many years your dear heroic Brother had it with him?
28773Might not the poet have added that truth embodied in a life shall be even more efficacious in obtaining an entrance?
28773Need we wonder that the"dear little fellows,"as he used to call them, responded by loving him in return?
28773Nor any stones that thou wilt deign to trust My hand to gather out?"
28773Now comes the question, Could I sacrifice my life and remain in Kordofan and Darfour?
28773Of course you can go back now, but what was the use of your coming?
28773The reply was,"They may be as good, but they are not so good for me;"and when the lady asked him"Why not?"
28773The time- server does not ask, What is right?
28773The way he pats you on the shoulder when he says,''Look here, dear fellow, now what would you advise?''
28773Then, as if he was afraid of being misunderstood, he said,"It was a strange prayer, was it not?
28773Was he a true man, or was he merely a professional hireling?
28773Was there ever a man more strongly actuated by the spirit of altruism?
28773What are you going to do?
28773What can I do?
28773What can they mean by sending a native of that country to such a place?"
28773What did I come to Jaffa for?
28773What is it if you know the sound truths and do not act up to them?
28773What is my duty?
28773What recompense has been made to those whose bleached bones mark the track of his trade over many and many a league of ground?"
28773What was the life of one man compared with the thousands of women and children who were suffering through the horrors of that war?
28773What will public opinion think?
28773What, also, would have become of the province?"
28773Where would you find more hardness to a fallen one than you would in a congregation of worshippers of the Church of this day?
28773Which do Basutos think Dutch like best-- Basutos or land?
28773Who can study his life without being convinced that he had a power with God, in later life, that he did not possess earlier?
28773Who was to know whether or not they were taken in battle?
28773Why should these countries be so full of annoyances to man?

36451How could they have saved themselves by flight when Tewkesbury was occupied, and the abbey surrounded by Edward''s army?

36451Who were these children, if not the King''s nephews?
36451Why should he commit this wholly useless act of perjury?
36451Why then is it not''too monstrous to be believed''that the mother should have been eager to obtain the hand of her son''s murderer for her daughter?
36451Why was not King Richard accused of murdering his nephews in the Act of Attainder?
36451Why was not this done?
36451Why was such extraordinary anxiety shown to conceal its contents, and violence threatened against anyone who preserved a record of them?
36451Why were absurd, improbable,{ 280} and contradictory tales invented, in substitution of the statements made in Richard''s Act?
36451Why were not Tyrrel, Dighton, Green, and Black Will arrested, tried, and hanged?

20023I hope, dear Uncle, you received my last letter( quite a packet) for Albert, on the 5th or 6th?
20023I own I was not a little surprised to find that you are probably the godmother; or is the little boy only to be named after you?
20023I replied,"Who told you this?"
20023I should like to know what harm the Coburg family has done to England?
20023I should wish to stay with you, and what would poor Ernest[9] say if I were to leave him so long?
20023I suppose I_ may_ send for Aunt Charlotte''s bust, for which I am most grateful-- and say I have your authority to do so?
20023I think that_ great_ violence and striving such a pity, on both sides, do n''t you, dear Uncle?
20023If therefore, dearest Uncle, it suits you and Aunt Louise, would you come about the end of August, and stay with me as long as you can?
20023Indeed, how is business to go on at all if such vexatious opposition prevails?
20023Is it by instigation from him personally, or does he only know of it without being a party to it?

20023They are: 1st, What you think of the Queen Christina of Spain, what opinion_ you_ have of her, as one can not believe_ reports_?
20023They say,"They did so to us; why should we not do so to them?"

20023You will kindly let our good old Grandmother[63] come there to see her dear Albert_ once again_ before she dies, would n''t you?
20023Your speech interested me very much; it is very fine indeed; you wrote it yourself, did you not?
20023[ 18] Might I ask what is the very pretty seal with which the letter I got from you yesterday was closed?

37817In another instance, none but those who have heard the man, would for a moment believe that his cry of"Do you want a brick or brick dust?"
37817The King asked him''why he inserted that?''
37817This idea was scouted by one of their wiseheads, who asked who was to tye the bell round the cat''s neck?
37817could have been possibly mistaken for"Do you want a lick on the head?"
37817what lacke you, countriman?
35532On perceiving my doctor silent, instead of offering with his usual kindness to post the letter, I enquired wherefore? 35532 Who is he that saith and it cometh to pass when THE_ Lord_ commandeth it not?"
35532_ Friday, September 26^th, 1846._ O my God, Wherefore hast Thou thought proper to let Satan try and distress me in this unanticipated manner? 35532 And why thus hesitatingly? 35532 But I hope to be able to go to see[_ sic_] on Saturday at three o''clock if you should not at that time have left town for the Seaside? 35532 I beg you to let me know what sum it is you wish, at what time or times to be paid? 35532 I then asked,''Is he engaged?'' 35532 I then inquired,''Who delivers parcels into His Grace''s hands?'' 35532 I think that I answered in a former letter all the queries which you had stated in yours? 35532 If I am mistaken with regard to this being a_ general habit_, I am_ justified_ in asking-- Why such an unwarrantable liberty was taken with me? 35532 If Payable at a Banker usually employed by you, will you be so kind as to let me know his Name? 35532 On her return to Buckingham House, Normanby, who had been at the chapel, said to her,Did not your Majesty find it very hot?"
35532The first is; Why I am to receive a change of style in the appearance of your letters with regard to the Seal thereof?
35532This made me still more anxious, eagerly asking, if he were ill?
35532WHO is he that saith_ and it cometh to pass_, when THE LORD_ commandeth it_ NOT?
35532What can I say to such things but this,--''Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?''
35532What would be said, if I, a man of seventy years of age, nearly, were to take in marriage a lady young enough to be my Granddaughter?"
35532Whether an order at a Banker would suit you?

21500But why do I thus coldly plain As if it were my cause alone?
21500Dear Mall, how shall I speak what I have seen or what I have felt?
21500Have I given cause, ask you, and take scandal when I have done?
21500He answered at first jestingly, but, on recollection, asked her with great earnestness, whether she did not intend that the matter should go forward?
21500Her majesty inquired who she was?
21500How can you do more cruel spite Than proffer wrong and promise right?
21500Is an earthly power or authority infinite?
21500Is it impiety not to do it?
21500Nay more, when the vilest of all indignities are done unto me, doth religion enforce me to sue?
21500No sooner was the decline of his favor perceived, and what so quickly perceived at courts?
21500Of whom I will say, as the prophet David speaketh of God,"Hath queen Elizabeth forgotten to be gracious?
21500On seeing a number of warders and other attendants drawn out in order, she asked,"What meaneth this?"
21500Or shall the army stand when all the volunteers leave it?
21500Or will any voluntaries stay when those that have will and cause to follow are thus handled?
21500Or will no kind of punishment be fit for him, but that which punisheth, not him, but me, this army, and this poor country of Ireland?
21500Quoth the Judge;''What need such eloquent terms in this place?''
21500Rich then demanded, why he refused to acknowledge a head of the church so appointed?
21500Shall I keep the country when the army breaks?
21500Shall ambassage be sent to foreign princes laden with instructions of your rash- advised charge?...
21500She asked how I came there?
21500She asked if she played well?
21500She asked me, which of them became her best?
21500She asked,"what needed such haste?"
21500She enquired whether my queen or she played best?
21500She enquired, which of them was of highest stature?
21500The courtiers quickly penetrated the secret of her heart;--for what vice, what weakness, can long lurk unsuspected in a royal bosom?
21500The full moon in heaven,"Quid sine te coelum"( What is heaven without thee)?
21500The gentleman replied,''Doth your lordship mislike the term(_ violent_)?
21500The queen had soon found him out, and with a kind of an affected frown asked the lady carver who he was?
21500The sun reflecting his rays from the bearer,"Quousque avertes"( How long wilt thou avert thy face)?
21500Then came Thomas Cobham, whom sir Thomas Poins took in, and said;''Alas, master Cobham, what wind headed you to work such treason?''
21500Then she asked, what exercises she used?
21500Then she spake to me in Dutch, which was not good; and would know what kind of books I most delighted in, whether theology, history, or love matters?
21500Then she turned, asking at me how I liked him?
21500Then,"to enforce the matter,"they brought forth sir James Croft, and Gardiner demanded what she had to say to that man?
21500This delay of ripe time for marriage, besides the loss of the realm( for without posterity of her highness what hope is left unto us?)
21500What did I advantage?
21500What should she do?
21500What therefore remaineth for me?
21500What, can not princes err?
21500When he came into the queen''s presence, she fell into a kind of reviling, demanding how he durst go over without her leave?
21500Which being over, she enquired of me whether she or my queen danced best?
21500Why should the earl of Essex interfere with an order of things so natural?
21500With such fancies and favorites what is to be hoped for?
21500[ 77]"Was the queen here making the apology of her own compliances under the reign of her sister, or was she generously furnishing a salvo for others?
21500can not subjects receive wrong?
21500or doth God require it?
21500or that he will contain himself within the limits of your conditions?"
21500that he doth so for sorrow or for gladness?''
21500that in the defence of obstinate refusal there never groweth victory but by compassion, they are come:--what need I say more?
21500what hast thou and thy company wrought?''
17618''How are monsieur''s pigs? 17618 And who posted them, did you do so yourself?"
17618Did you ever do any smuggling?
17618Did you not say that the pretty damsel of Herm had a father?
17618Do you mind my leaving you a few minutes,said he,"while I fire the big gun for assistance?"
17618Ellen, do you remember posting a letter to me, about a month ago, that Miss Grant gave you?
17618Had we not better take up the flooring and see if we have come simply upon a grave or what else is beneath us?
17618How do you feel?
17618How much is a metre?
17618Is that all, Harry?
17618Is the case indeed so hopeless?
17618Let''s see, which one shall I give you? 17618 Poor dog, are you hungry then?"
17618Puit?
17618Then what,I asked myself,"is the meaning of the letters at certain angles round the square both inside and out?"
17618Well, Nilford, what is your decision? 17618 Well,"said he,"that''s rather personal, is it not?
17618What are they? 17618 What did his cat do?"
17618What do you say to a glass of ale at the tavern you put up at in Braye for those eleven days, eh, Alec?
17618What is to be done?
17618What is window, Alec?
17618What say you to a sail this evening, Crusoe?
17618What, dig down ten feet, and be buried alive in this crumbling grave? 17618 Where to, noble Crusoe?"
17618Who would be stifled up in a town with wealth and its attending cares, in preference to this life of liberty I was leading?
17618''Why not give them one of those which are languishing so for want of water?''
17618( Why do we never hear anything of the father o''pearl?)
17618Are they well?
17618Are they yours?"
17618Are they_ really_ real?
17618Are_ all_ the bags full?"
17618At length he laid the paper down, and informed me that he could read it well enough, but what did it all refer to?
17618Beside which, had not M. Ducas gone straight away and given notice to the proper authorities?
17618But I broke in,"Where was the water?"
17618But as Hugo created his hero, why should he not be allowed to destroy him as he likes?
17618But how could_ she_ know of my danger?
17618But tell me what has happened?
17618But then I suppose when you see them by the_ ton_, day after day, you take no notice of them?"
17618But what does Priscilla say to his protestations of love; surely she does not give him countenance?"
17618But what of the dog''s warning?
17618But where are we?
17618Could I find a means of climbing up the perpendicular sides of my prison, if only a few feet?
17618Could not Alec decipher that for me?
17618Did I do wrong?"
17618Did I ever do any smuggling?
17618Do n''t you think it''s all moonshine, or rather( wiping the perspiration from his brow) sunshine and shadow?"
17618Do you give them much green food?''
17618Do you want to throw your life away in such madness?
17618Does darkness affect the nerves of a blind man as it does that of one with his full visual powers?
17618Had we seen them or what were they?
17618Have they thought of the Channel Islands?
17618How should I form the bows?
17618How should I get home was the next question?
17618How was I going to secure my victim before giving the_ coup de grace_?
17618However did you get home?"
17618I believe she is as true a girl as ever lived; but why did you not answer her letters?
17618I quietly took it from my trunk, and handed it to him carelessly, with the remark,"Can you read that for me, Alec?"
17618I suppose we shall not know a turnip from an apple next?"
17618I was fain to confess that it did seem like it, but asked,"Will you help me dig to a depth of ten feet from the surface?
17618I would keep my secret; but what of the paper I had discovered in the niche in the wall?
17618If cod liver oil is good for consumptives, why not porpoise cutlets?
17618Is_ she_ well, and is she still_ mine_?
17618Its head appears never to be still, but constantly bobbing and turning from side to side, as if saying,"Did you ever catch a cormorant asleep?"
17618Might I not die any one of a hundred deaths without the fact being known for weeks, perhaps months?
17618Monday looked about and quickly said,"La porte, the door, porche, the porch; how will they do?"
17618My father noticed my agitation as I asked,"Father, is anything amiss with her?
17618My friends would never hear of me again, and my animals on the island would starve till-- yes, why not try?
17618My good old dad stood by, looking very grave, and gave a very emphatic shake of his head, so I said:"What do you think of it all?"
17618My life was saved, but by what?
17618Next, where was it most likely a man would hide anything of value, beneath the sea or upon dry land?
17618Now do you not remember any little adventure of your own you could tell me?"
17618Now what are we standing near that commences in French with the letter P?"
17618Now, friend Alec, and what would you like to take away with you?"
17618On this particular night my mind was filled with the question,"How can I keep my fish pond always replenished with sea water?"
17618Or do the gentle tradesmen, to discourage smuggling, manufacture their own_ Havannas_?
17618Oysters lie in deep waters where they are inaccessible to these birds, so whence is their name derived?
17618Shall I ever forget them?
17618Should I tell Alec?
17618Should I tell him of that?
17618Should he not be offered up on a stool?
17618Suppose someone put in at night and cut my throat for the sake of plunder?
17618Surely nothing was wrong with her; was she ill?
17618The turning point of the case was, did we pick up separate logs of timber and construct the raft, or did we find the raft_ already made_?
17618Then my dear old mother, what of her?
17618Then said I,"What is the French for walnut tree?"
17618Then said Monday,"What say you now of your quest, Crusoe?
17618Then why does darkness bring a certain awe to ordinary mortals?
17618These remarks aroused my curiosity, so I asked,"Were you ever caught at the game?"
17618To which I replied by asking him a question,"Whatever is the matter, Alec, am I hurt?"
17618Was it a spirit voice or some night bird that in my abstraction I fancied pronounced my name?
17618Was mother ailing?
17618Was my father dead?
17618We now appeared to have cleared the place, but what of the"petite fà © es"?
17618Well, say the skull represented the treasure spot, what did the square surrounding it mean?
17618What a rumpus he would have caused?
17618What did the skull portend, and what did the letters and figures refer to?
17618What did this idiotic idea of mine amount to after all?
17618What do you say to a drag with the trawl?"
17618What do you say, would you rather go or stay?"
17618What do you say?"
17618What had I to turn into a plough?
17618What if I met with an accident?
17618What if I were taken ill?
17618What is the interpretation of this?
17618What more_ could_ I do?
17618What of Priscilla?
17618What security could I give him for further food?
17618What shall we do next?"
17618What was to be done?
17618Whence comes the spell of dread that night brings beneath its black wing?
17618Whenever I looked round his dear old brown eyes were upon me, as if he would say,"How are you getting on, master?"
17618Where did you write them?"
17618Where was I?
17618Where was the pleasure?
17618Where_ did_ you get them from?
17618Who would help me?
17618Who would know of my position?
17618Why are we so much more in fear of unseen things at night than during the day?
17618Why could I not throw my doubled silk sash over it, and haul myself up?
17618Why do you look so grave?
17618Why not lengthen and strengthen her at once?
17618Why not make a plough?
17618Why not utilize these?
17618Why not?
17618Why not?
17618Why there are several ways that I can think of,"said Alec, after a pause;"but first and foremost, why not go home in the''Anglo- Franc?''"
17618Why, Alec will bear me out that they have been indigenous to the island for scores of years, wo n''t you, Alec?"
17618Will you kindly accompany us over your premises?''
17618Would it be among the rocks or where the ground was softer?
17618Would it not be better to be home in dear old Barton with my skiff and pretty Priscilla?
17618Would they join us at table?
17618Would you like them to come over and take charge?
17618Yes he was, and by the bye, why should I not try something?
17618Yes?
17618_ Have you a spade?_''"It was all up.
17618_ What of the dead man lying on the beach?_ I shuddered at the mere idea of going near the poor fellow.
17618and a dozen other questions were put to me in as many seconds, but I only laughed and said:"Now do you believe me?"
17618those two days, would they never pass?
17618what letters do you refer to?"
17618what shall we do now?"
17618what''s this, Ducas?
17618where are you?
17618whistled Alec;"where''s the salt box?
36993Always doing or undoing something 37 Habitual fitfulness 38 Self- importance 40 Henry and Wolsey: Which led?
36993But what were the steps, and what especially was Elizabeth''s step?
36993Can he enlarge this chamber or contract that?
36993Can he, later, close a door here or open a window there?
36993Choice spirits are more numerous-- but are the spirits quite as choice?
36993Do we not indeed know too well the fate of those whose thought and will ran counter to his?
36993For, indeed, what is the use of being active, capable, confident and important in a closet?
36993If a brother is attached to his brother and does not quarrel with him, is he therefore poor- spirited?
36993If a parliament and a king see eye to eye, is it just to label the parliament throughout history as an abject parliament?
36993If by rare chance a servant sees, possibly on good grounds, a hero in his master, is he therefore a poltroon?
36993It might be asked, in passing, seeing that six wives is the sign of a perfect"monster"if three wives make a semi- monster?
36993Should we have loved, trusted, and reverenced a''monster of lust''?
36993What then might he have been had he been a statesman only, or a diplomatist or an ecclesiastic or a soldier only?
36993What was its meaning?
36993Why may we not combine all thankfulness for the early More and the early Savonarola, and all compassion for the later More and later Savonarola?
36993Yet how many of us are there who, if admitting to the full their greatness, do not belittle their follies?
36993or, if freely admitting their follies, do not belittle their greatness?
36993what its object?
37625And is it possible, after all, that there may be a flaw in the title- deeds?
37625As for the remainder,--the hundred pale abortions to be counted against one rosy- cheeked boy,--what shall we say or do?
37625For, if they are to have no immortality, what superior claim can I assert for mine?
37625I remembered Dean Swift''s retort to Sergeant Bettesworth on a similar announcement,--"Of what regiment, pray, sir?"
37625Or, let me speak it more boldly, what other long- enduring fame can exist?
37625What other fame is worth aspiring for?
37625Would fire burn it, I wonder?
37625[ 11] Shall I attempt a picture of this exhalation of modern ingenuity, or what else shall I try to paint?
37625but,"Why is he here?"
14412Am I to cry peace, peace, where there is no peace? 14412 And where did they all live-- I see no houses where they could have lived?"
14412Are you,he concluded,"desirous of putting an end to these murders?
14412But there would be employment for them in reclaiming the waste?
14412Can you form any judgment what proportion of the population, which is thus added at present, bears to the ordinary population of the City of Cork?
14412Do you see all that country, sir?
14412Had not,he asked,"the policy of the State always been to become a great money lender?
14412How does it,he is further asked,"prevent them from going upon the land?"
14412Is not,said O''Connell,"the state of things I have described a blot upon Christianity?
14412Is the land with you termed waste, capable of being made productive?
14412Is there sufficient employment for the people in the cultivation of the arable land?
14412Were there more people in Bridgetown and Skibbereen at that time than now?
14412What did the wealthy non- resident landlords give?
14412What did the wealthy resident landlords give_?
14412What other relief was given during the Government works by private charity, committees, etc.?
14412Whence can this proceed?
14412With every disposition,writes W.G.,"to make allowances for the difficulties of their position, let me ask, Sir, how have the gentry acted?
14412[ 286]_ Question_ 1819:How do you propose that the priests should be paid?"
14412''What mutton and blanket?''
14412Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword?
14412Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword?
14412Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword?
14412Again, if small holdings were the bane of Ireland, was the midst of an unparalleled famine the proper time to remove the bane?
14412An inspector asks this question:"Is a man who owns a horse, or a cow, or such things, destitute?"
14412And what is the picture, he asks?
14412And what, I further asked, were the feelings of the landlords with regard to their tenants dying of starvation?
14412And when you have brought over your corn, who who will be the buyers?
14412And why should they not?
14412Besides,"under the operation of the Act"is itself a doubtful phrase: How long were they under it?
14412But this old Obelisk itself, what is it?--What brought it here?
14412But what did I find in the islands?
14412But why all this concern of the poor?
14412But, Sir, seven years have elapsed, and what has been the result?
14412Can the Government, then, vote public money for the sustenance of the people and maintain existing restrictions on the free importation of grain?
14412Did he intend to turn from pleasantries to solemn warning, or fierce denunciation?
14412Did not the guardians of the poor in this country make purchases upon the spot?
14412Did the Act, to the full extent, supply the place of the public works, where it had come into operation?
14412Did the landlords, I enquired, come forward liberally to save the lives of the people?
14412England unanimously repudiates the first theory; but is the other much less disgraceful to us?
14412Even if it were desirable to continue employing the people upon those public works, where were they to be always found?
14412Had the English proprietors, he would ask, who had large estates in Ireland, done their duty?
14412Had they more power over the public than the members of their own House?
14412Has not the Irish Celt, he asks, achieved distinguished success in every country of Europe but his own?
14412He asks,"is the Corn Law in all its provisions adapted to this unforeseen and very special case?"
14412He said''That is quite true, but do you remember having received monthly remittances during the severe pressure of the Famine in Skibbereen?''
14412How can a man dying of starvation have patience?
14412How far was their machinery complete and efficient?
14412How had it acted when the duty was confided to it of finding employment?
14412How is it replaced?
14412How often have I heard all the boast of the superior tranquillity of the North?
14412How was this vast scheme to be carried to a successful issue?
14412If, he asks, the Corn Laws are suspended, is it to be done by an act of prerogative, or by legislation at the instance of the Government?
14412In such districts, where are hills and roads to be found upon which the people may, this year, be employed?
14412In view of the amount of the loan sought for, and the mileage of the railways to be constructed, how many men, said Lord George, can we employ?
14412Is it, he asks, to be spent on productive or unproductive labour?
14412Is not the quarter of an acre clause test for relief your creation?
14412Is not the_ ex- officio_ clause in the Poor- law Bill your bantling, or that of your leader, Lord Stanley?
14412Is that your belief?
14412It was not O''Connell''s habit to write his speeches; where then could the means of publishing this one come from, except from the reporters?
14412It would give far less trouble to the Government than the system which it is proposed to substitute for it; but what would the end of it be?
14412May we not well ask, Why were not the permanent measures, now proposed, thought of long before, and passed into laws?
14412Mr. Hall, on putting his head inside the hole which answered for a door, said:"Well, Phillis, how is your mother to- day?"
14412Mr. Wakley addressing himself to that observation, said"he would ask, was not England open to the same or similar effects?
14412Now, he wanted to know in what the remainder was spent?
14412Now, how have we seen in the first part of this work, that He has repeatedly punished?
14412Now, suppose it is admitted that small holdings were the bane of Ireland, who, we may be permitted to ask, created them?
14412O''Brien?"
14412Of what use was money, if food were not procurable with it?
14412Ought not such a bane be the subject of legislation, when society was in its normal state?
14412Phillis answered,"O Sir, is it you?
14412President Folk''s message to Congress-- America burthened with surplus corn-- could supply the world-- Was it a money question or a food question?
14412Shall we advise the suspension of that law for a limited period?
14412Shall we resolve to maintain the existing Corn Law?
14412Shall we undertake without suspension to modify the existing Corn Law?
14412She would not awake them, but she must know the truth-- are they alive or dead?
14412Should I be authorized in issuing a proclamation prohibiting distillation from grain?
14412Statesmen appear to have understood them well enough: why then did it require a famine to have them brought officially before Parliament?
14412The House, he said, could send the public to Committees, why not a member?
14412The Irish nation-- the sister kingdom, your fellow- subjects, living at your very threshold-- as near to you as York or Devon?
14412The day''s proceedings might be fairly supposed to have ended here-- but no-- what about the prisoners?
14412The following is an extract from his letter:--"In sober earnestness, gentlemen, why send your circular to a Catholic bishop?
14412The question raised at that private conference was, what was the state of each man''s constituency?
14412The simple question:"Was it better to employ the labour of the country on productive rather than on non- productive works during the Famine?"
14412Then where was the generosity?
14412Then why( the noble Lord continued, with much vehemence) do n''t he give us the information, if he do n''t shrink from it?
14412Was ever such an ascent open to him before?
14412Was he about to make an adversary ridiculous by an anecdote or a witticism?
14412Was it a money question or a food question?
14412Was the townsland boundary system, which he had just condemned, half so demoralizing to the labourer as this?
14412Was this, he asked, to be considered as a local calamity, or was it to be considered as a national calamity?
14412What became of the remainder of the money?
14412What do we see with regard to Indian meal?
14412What else, he asks, can they be?
14412What good could we expect from such a Nazareth?
14412What grave mysterious reasons of State, then, have prevented the Irish wastes from being reclaimed?
14412What landowner could afford the double outlay of paying unlimited taxation, and at the same time of making improvements on his property?
14412What position did we then occupy as a class of people of the United Kingdom?
14412What was to be done?
14412What will Lord John Russell say to this?
14412What, then, must their lives have been during the Famine?
14412When may we expect to resume the works?"
14412Where was the real, the culpable, the unpardonable apathy?
14412Where were Lord John''s wonderful free trade principles then?
14412Where were the retailers then, who were to have sprung into existence under the political economy wand of Lord John Russell and Mr. Labouchere?
14412Where were the virtuous and conscientious men in whom the constituencies of Ireland had reposed confidence?
14412Whether the refusal to serve on the Committee in question can be construed into a contempt of the authority of the house?
14412Whether there is any and what prescriptive power or privilege in said House to imprison its members for such contempt?
14412Whether there is any, and what inherent power or privilege in the House of Commons to imprison its members for constructive contempt of its authority?
14412Whether, assuming the commitment or detainer to have been unlawful, Mr. Smith O''Brien has any and what legal remedy, and against whom?
14412Who but Mr. D''Israeli can perceive any abnegation of O''Connell''s principles in these sentiments?
14412Who could have put such nonsense into your head?''
14412Who was the retiring but generous donor?
14412Why did not the Government buy it, instead of sending to America and Malta for Indian corn and bad wheat?
14412Why did they not attend in numbers sufficient to prevent Mr. Poulett Scrope''s laudable effort on behalf of Ireland from being burked?
14412Why did they not keep the Irish corn crop for May and June, or use it for immediate need and import Indian meal for May and June?
14412Why have the bare- faced impudence to ask me to consent to the expatriation of millions of my co- religionists and fellow- countrymen?
14412Will you yourself describe what you have seen and known?"
14412Would their cultivation give remunerative interest on the capital expended?
14412[ 134]"Under such circumstances,"he asks,"how can the country be exposed to danger or suffering from an infliction such as now threatens?

12544King Charles, and who''ll do him right now? 12544 ''Tis strange that you tell me of my Lords Shandoys[ Chandos] and Arundel; but what becomes of young Compton''s estate? 12544 All this considered, what have I to say for myself when people shall ask, what''tis I expect? 12544 Am not I beholding to him, think you? 12544 And if it be, what is become of the £ 2500 lady? 12544 And let me ask you whether it be possible that Mr. Grey makes love, they say he does, to my Lady Jane Seymour? 12544 And, besides, there was a time when we ourselves were indifferent to one another;--did I do so then, or have I learned it since? 12544 Are a thousand women, or ten thousand worlds, worth it? 12544 Are mine so to you? 12544 Are you not in some fear what will become on me? 12544 But are you not afraid of giving me a strong vanity with telling me I write better than the most extraordinary person in the world? 12544 But by your own rules, then, may I not expect the same from you? 12544 But did not you tell me you should not stay above a day or two? 12544 But did you drink them immediately from the well? 12544 But did you not say in your last that you took something very ill from me? 12544 But do you think it was altogether without design she spoke it to you? 12544 But for God''s sake whither is it that you go? 12544 But had you reason to be displeased that I said a change in you would be much more pardonable than in him? 12544 But the truth is, I had been inquiring for some( as''tis a commodity scarce enough in this country), and he hearing it, told the baily[ bailiff?] 12544 But what should she do with beauty now? 12544 But while I remember it, let me ask you if you did not send my letter and_ Cléopâtre_ where I directed you for my lady? 12544 But, Lord, when shall I see you? 12544 But, bless me, what will become of us all now? 12544 By the way( this puts me in mind on''t), have you read the story of China written by a Portuguese, Fernando Mendez Pinto, I think his name is? 12544 Can I discern that it has made the trouble of your life, and cast a cloud upon mine, that will help to cover me in my grave? 12544 Can there be a romancer story than ours would make if the conclusion prove happy? 12544 Can there be anything vainer than such a hope upon such grounds? 12544 Can you believe that I do willingly defer my journey? 12544 Can you believe that you are dearer to me than the whole world beside, and yet neglect yourself? 12544 Can you doubt that anything can make your letters cheap? 12544 Can you imagine that he that demands £ 5000 besides the reversion of an estate will like bare £ 4000? 12544 Can you tell where that is? 12544 Can you think it necessary to me, or believe that your letters can be so long as to make them unpleasing to me? 12544 Chambers, as to remember me with kindness? 12544 Could George Eliot herself have done more for us in like space? 12544 Could you not stay till they are all gone to Roehampton? 12544 Did ever anybody forget themselves to that degree that was not melancholy in extremity? 12544 Did not you say once you knew where good French tweezers were to be had? 12544 Did you not intend to write to me when you writ to Jane? 12544 Did you send the last part of_ Cyrus_ to Mr. Hollingsworth? 12544 Do you know him? 12544 Do you know his son, my cousin Harry? 12544 Do you remember Arme and the little house there? 12544 Do you think, in earnest, I could be satisfied the world should think me a dissembler, full of avarice or ambition? 12544 Does not my cousin at Moor Park mistrust us a little? 12544 Does she not answer this question for us when she writes that he wasthe greatest nobleman in England"?
12544Does she not need all her faith in her lover, in herself, ay, and in God, to uphold her in this new affliction?
12544Farewell; can you endure that word?
12544For to what purpose should I have strived against it?
12544From what hid stock does thy strange nature spring?
12544Has she been recently reading this passage?
12544Have I done anything since that deserves he should alter his intentions towards us?

12544Have we not here some local squires hit off to the life?
12544Have you deserved to be otherwise; that is, am I no more in yours?
12544Have you read_ Cléopâtre_?
12544He does not preach so always, sure?
12544He is so famed that I expected rare things of him, and seriously I listened to him as if he had been St. Paul; and what do you think he told us?
12544How could you hear me talk so senselessly, though''twere but in your sleep, and not be ready to beat me?
12544How do you after your journey; are you not weary; do you not repent that you took it to so little purpose?
12544How do you like that?
12544I am sorry my new carrier makes you rise so early,''tis not good for your cold; how might we do that you might lie a- bed and yet I have your letter?
12544I do not doubt but I shall be better able to resist his importunity than his tutor was; but what do you think it is that gives him his encouragement?
12544I have made a general confession to you; will you give me absolution?
12544I have missed a letter this Monday: What is the reason?
12544If her niece has so much wit, will you not be persuaded to like her; or say she has not quite so much, may not her fortune make it up?
12544If it were expected that one should give a reason for their passions, what could he say for himself?
12544If you are come back from Epsom, I may ask you how you like drinking water?
12544If you stay there you will write back by him, will you not, a long letter?
12544Is it in earnest that you say your being there keeps me from the town?
12544Is it not my good Lord of Monmouth, or some such honourable personage, that presents her to the English ladies?
12544Is it possible that all I have said can not oblige you to a care of yourself?
12544Is it possible that he saw me?
12544Is it possible that she can be indifferent to anybody?
12544Is it possible you came so near me as Bedford and would not see me?
12544Is it true that Algernon Sydney was so unwilling to leave the House, that the General was fain to take the pains to turn him out himself?
12544Is it true that my Lord Whitlocke goes Ambassador where my Lord Lisle should have gone?
12544Is it true?
12544Is it true?
12544Is not this a great deal of news for me that never stir abroad?
12544Is not this a strange turn?
12544Is not this very comfortable?
12544Is there any such thing towards?
12544Is there anything thought so indiscreet, or that makes one more contemptible?
12544Is this not very like preaching?
12544Is your father returned yet, and do you think of coming over immediately?
12544King Charles, and who''s ripe for fight now?
12544Leave them behind you?
12544May not I ask it?
12544My dearest, will you pardon me that I am forced to leave you so soon?
12544No, I long to be rid of you, am afraid you will not go soon enough: do not you believe this?
12544No, you are mistaken certainly; what should she do amongst all that company, unless she be towards a wedding?
12544Now what think you, shall I ever hear of him more?
12544Now, in very good earnest, do you think''tis time for me to come or no?
12544One can picture Dorothy reading and musing over lines like these with sympathy and admiration: What art thou, love, thou great mysterious thing?
12544Or has any accident lessened his power?
12544Or shall I send him to you to know?
12544Pray what is meant by_ wellness_ and_ unwellness_; and why is_ to some extreme_ better than_ to some extremity_?
12544Pray, tell me how you like her, and what fault you find in my Lady Carlisle''s letter?
12544Pray, where is your lodging?
12544SIR,--They say you gave order for this waste- paper; how do you think I could ever fill it, or with what?
12544SIR,--Who would be kind to one that reproaches one so cruelly?
12544SIR,--Why are you so sullen, and why am I the cause?
12544See how kind I grow at parting; who would not go into Ireland to have such another?
12544Shall I speak a good word for you?
12544Shall we go thither?
12544Sure this will at least defer your journey?
12544Sure you took somebody else for my cousin Peters?
12544Tell me what I must think on''t; whether it be better or worse, or whether you are at all concern''d in''t?
12544Tell me, my dearest, am I?
12544That vile wench lets you see all my scribbles, I believe; how do you know I took care your hair should not be spoiled?
12544The shepherd that bragged to the traveller, who asked him,"What weather it was like to be?"
12544Therefore, if I forgive you this, you may justly forgive me t''other; and upon these terms we are friends again, are we not?
12544Think on''t, and let me know what you resolve?
12544This was written when I expected a letter from you, how came I to miss it?
12544To the joy or sorrow of the neighbourhood,--who knows now?
12544Was Dorothy in London to purchase her_ trousseau_?
12544Was this the spark that loneliness and absence fanned into flame?
12544Well, who can help these things?
12544Were you at Althorp when you saw my Lady Sunderland and Mr. Smith, or are they in town?
12544What a dismal story this is you sent me; but who could expect better from a love begun upon such grounds?
12544What can excuse me if I should entertain any person that is known to pretend to me, when I can have no hope of ever marrying him?
12544What do you mean to be so melancholy?
12544What do you mean to do with all my letters?
12544What does my Lord Lisle?
12544What has it brought my poor Lady Anne Blunt to?
12544What is it that has kept you longer?
12544What is it your father ails, and how long has he been ill?
12544What say you?
12544What shall I tell him?
12544What think you, have I not done fair for once, would you wish a longer letter?
12544What think you, might not I preach with Mr. Marshall for a wager?
12544What think you, were it not a good way of preferment as the times are?
12544What would I give I could avoid it when people speak of you?
12544What would you give that I had but the wit to know when to make an end of my letters?
12544What( besides your consideration) could oblige me to live and lose all the rest of my friends thus one after another?
12544When do you think of coming back again?
12544Where did she and Jane spend their days, if that was the case, when Regent Street was green fields?
12544Where were my eyes that I did not see him, for I believe I should have guessed at least that''twas he if I had?
12544Who knows what a year may produce?
12544Who told you I go to bed late?
12544Who was that, Mr. Dr. told you I should marry?
12544Why did you get such a cold?
12544Why did you not send me that news and a garland?
12544Why do I enter into this wrangling discourse?
12544Why do you dissemble so abominably; you can not think these things?
12544Why do you say I failed you?
12544Why should not you be as just to me?
12544Why should you be less kind?
12544Why should you give yourself over so unreasonably to it?
12544Why should you make an impossibility where there is none?
12544Why should you think me so careless of anything that you were concerned in, as to doubt that I had writ?
12544Why would not your own resolution work as much upon you as necessity and time does infallibly upon people?
12544Why, then, did the accomplished Lady Anne Clifford unite herself to so worthless a person?
12544Why, then, should my absence now be less supportable to you than heretofore?
12544Will it be ever thus?
12544Will it not stay your father''s journey too?
12544Will my cousin F. come, think you?
12544Will the kindness of this letter excuse the shortness on''t?
12544Will you be so good- natured?
12544Will you pardon this strange scribbled letter, and the disorderliness on''t?
12544Would he look on me, think you, that had pretty Mrs. Fretcheville?
12544Would you be very glad to see me there, and could you do it in less disorder, and with less surprise, than you did at Chicksands?
12544Would you believe that I had the grace to go hear a sermon upon a week day?
12544Would you think it, that I have an ambassador from the Emperor Justinian, that comes to renew the treaty?
12544Would you think that upon examination it is found that you are not an indifferent person to me?
12544Yet I could beat you for writing this last strange letter; was there ever anything said like?
12544You are a very pretty gentleman and a modest; were there ever such stories as these you tell?
12544You have no such ladies in Ireland?
12544You hear the noise my Lady Anne Blunt has made with her marrying?
12544You little think I have been with Lilly, and, in earnest, I was, the day before I came out of town; and what do you think I went for?
12544You would see me, you say?
12544_ Letter 37._ SIR,--You say I abuse you; and Jane says you abuse me when you say you are not melancholy: which is to be believed?
12544_ Letter 48._ SIR,--''Tis but an hour since you went, and I am writing to you already; is not this kind?
12544how can you talk of defying fortune; nobody lives without it, and therefore why should you imagine you could?
12544how do those that live with them always?
12544how you are altered; and what is it that has done it?
12544now I am speaking of religion, let me ask you is not his name Bagshawe that you say rails on love and women?
12544poor Dorothy, who will now forbear to pity you?
12544shall we ever be so happy, think you?
12544whilst I think on''t, let me ask you one question seriously, and pray resolve me truly;--do I look so stately as people apprehend?
12544who knows not what mischances and how great changes have often happened in a little time?
12544who shall now say what are the inmost thoughts of our Dorothy?
12544who would have been other?
38191But where did you get it?
38191But was ever work so often broken in upon?
38191But was it not his most direct road to fortune?
38191Did he perhaps see dimly even then that he was to be the man who should throw out the old- fashioned hand- wheel?
38191He scooped turnips hollow, and lighted up the insides with candles-- but what boy has not experimented in the same way?
38191His fine eyes and beautiful forehead interested me, and I said,''What book is that?''
38191Sarnia, do you get what I say?"
38191So it flashed into his brain-- why not print a paper on the train?
38191This sharp lesson humbled my conceit, and I determined to redouble my exertions...."May he perhaps have over- estimated his own skill?
38191Was it this made him say with Napoleon,"Nothing is impossible"?
38191Was there ever so idle a dog?
38191Was this time prophetic of those later years when he would hold men and women fascinated by the charm of his conversation?
38191We have plenty of stories of the sea,_ but what could be better than this true tale_?"
38191When food had been got for the little mouths, what was left for clothes and schooling?
38191Who would risk thousands on such a vague and shadowy thing?
38191Would he disappoint his little son, or deceive him?
33113Am I not a man,the King said sharply,"am I not a man like others?
33113Could nothing be done,he asked,"to prevent England from breaking with the Papacy?
33113Did he not acquit me of the infamy he has laid on me?
33113What harm could there be,Casalis inquired,"in showing the decretal, under oath, to a few of the Privy Council?"
33113Which Pope do you mean?
33113Why do you talk of the King of England?
33113[ 239]Who was this Cromwell that had grown to such importance?"
33113Am I not a man?"
33113Brewer thinks it proves, a record of it would have been preserved among the official State Papers?
33113But would the opportunity ever come?
33113Did the Pope mean, then, Casalis asked, that the commission should not proceed?
33113Fisher was asked who wrote these letters:"Who was E. R.?
33113Had she or had she not accepted it?
33113He had once been willing-- why should he now refuse?
33113How can he allow a suit so scandalous to remain so long undecided?
33113How could he do that?
33113How could the Emperor submit to the reproach of having consented to the death of his cousin, and sold her for the sake of a peace?
33113How did Chapuys know that this was the cause of the divorce of Anne?
33113How if England supported the King?
33113How was it that he was able to compel them to be the voluntary instruments of his cruelty?
33113If heresies arise, is it my fault?
33113If the cause was tried at Rome, was it to be tried before the Cardinals in consistory or before the court of the Rota?
33113If trifles, why the secrecy, and from whom were they to be concealed?
33113Is it conceivable that he would have composed a document so fatal and have drawn the Pope''s pointed attention to it?
33113Is it credible that so invigorating a stream flowed from a polluted fountain?
33113Is it possible to believe that qualities so opposite as the popular theory requires existed in the same persons?
33113Might not a personal interview be brought about between the King and the Emperor?
33113Might not the Cardinal of Liège be trusted, and the Bishop of Tarbes?
33113Must I accept them now?
33113Should Charles then give up the point for which he was contending?
33113Should the Emperor insist on a promise that it should be submitted to a General Council?
33113The Emperor had done his duty in supporting his aunt; might he not now yield a little to avoid worse?"
33113The Nuncio rushed to the council chamber; he saw the Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk; he asked passionately what was meant?
33113The world might mutter, but why should it be resented by the Emperor?
33113They might be right, but how if they were not right?
33113To what else, it is asked, can such extraordinary expressions refer unless to some disgraceful personal_ liaison_?
33113Was Chapuys right or was the King?
33113Was it not demanded for that purpose?
33113Was not the Papacy itself degenerate, and unfit to exercise any longer the authority which it had been allowed to assume?
33113Were others to be sworn, and were the two ladies chiefly concerned to be exempted?
33113What force had the King?
33113What if Calais could be offered them as a bait?
33113What reason can be given save that it was a legend which grew out of the temper of the time?
33113What those things were which no mortal was to know?
33113What was he to do?
33113What was to be done?
33113What were the letters which had been received from the Bishop himself to be sent oversea?
33113Who was the Prince?"
33113Why could they not stand up in the House of Lords and refuse to sanction the measures which they disapproved?
33113Why did not the Emperor make war upon the Lutherans?
33113Why had not the Emperor let him know distinctly whether he would treat with him or not?
33113Why had the Pope changed his mind?
33113Why not then, said Clement, begin with the Swiss, who were not so strong?
33113Why should not the Pope, then, allow the decretal to be put in execution?
33113Why, Chapuys asked, might not the King consent also to refer the case to the Council?
33113Why, said he, in quiet irony, to the Emperor''s Minister, does not your master proceed on the Brief_ de Attentatis_?
33113[ 226] Why could they not dare?
33113[ 73] What was a miserable pope to do?
33113what English privileges had he violated?
33113what was the Pope accused of?
33113whether the marriage had not been wrong from the beginning?
33113why had he not been warned beforehand?
38905Should we wonder,he writes,"if carpenters were to remonstrate that since the Peace there is no demand for wooden legs?"
38905What have you?
38905What will you do with her?
38905Accordingly, on Sunday, when everybody has roast meat for dinner, all the cooks were to be seen in the streets,''Pray have you seen our Chloe?''
38905Are these customs observed at the present day?
38905He called upon me in the course of a cause, and becoming familiar with him, I asked him''how he came to employ me?''
38905Here are his words:-- SECOND CLOWN: But is this law?
38905Oh, dare I look back?
38905Who treads on my track?
38905Would Jackson''s clock then be of no use to men who had few such in their villages?
14511Against the evicted tenants, or against the local agents of the League?
14511Against whom are all these precautions necessary?
14511All that lumber there by the station?
14511And do you get work here from the farmers as the labourers do in my country?
14511And if we come back would we be protected?
14511And if we made it half the costs?
14511And nothing else?
14511And so there is but what''s the good of it? 14511 And the cattle, sir?
14511And these wages are the highest?
14511And what do they do with them?
14511And what has he for his board?
14511And what of it, sir?
14511And what would they be, the costs?
14511And where are they?
14511And who is Mr. Gilhooly, now? 14511 And who made the Committee?"
14511And why should I be? 14511 Are the labourers,"I asked,"Nationalists?"
14511Are you not a Catholic, then?
14511But I am told you want to leave it?
14511But I thought it was the landlords and the rents?
14511But does n''t it cost them a good deal to go and come?
14511But if you come to terms now with Mr. Tener here, will you get that money back again?
14511But the English put all their prisoners in those cells, do n''t they?
14511But what would you do there?
14511But why do n''t you make up your minds to be men, and''discover''on yourselves, and defy these fellows?
14511Did you ever read it? 14511 Did you pay over all your rent into the hands of the trustees of the League?"
14511Do the farmers build houses for the labourers?
14511Do you hear from them regularly?
14511Do you know Mr. Lynch, the magistrate?
14511Do?
14511Does he live in Portumna?
14511Get a war? 14511 Had this priest given in his adhesion to the Plan of Campaign?"
14511Has n''t he enough, sure, to mind in Rome? 14511 Have you any objection to show us that letter?"
14511His name? 14511 How did that spoil him?"
14511How did this happen, the tenants being good men as you say?
14511How is it with the Plan of Campaign and the Boycotting?
14511Is it not worth three hundred pounds to you now?
14511Is it what made me go?
14511Is it what they do with them? 14511 Is that what your member tells you?"
14511It''s a deal of money, ten pounds, sorr, and you would n''t have a poor man throw away ten pounds?
14511It''s out of respect, then, for the Pope that you would n''t mind the Decree?
14511Not if I am the bearer of a telegram for the lawyer?
14511Not if Mr. O''Brien told them they must?
14511Now what use have the labourers got for the Plan of Campaign? 14511 Now, do you see,"said Mr. Tener,"what it is you ask me to do?
14511Oh, now then, sir, who''d be wanting to put down the hunting here in Galway?--and Ballinasloe? 14511 Oh, the new agent?
14511On whom,I asked,"does the burden fall of these levies and extravagances?"
14511Pray, how is that?
14511Sir Thomas is to marry an heiress, sir, is n''t he, in America?
14511That did n''t clear him,I said,"of the cloth, did it?"
14511The best? 14511 The member, sorr?
14511Then, in a case like that of Griffin''s, evicted at Glenbehy, with arrears going back to 1883, who would pay the rates?
14511This country here? 14511 To the Castle, is it?"
14511Was it ever put down here, the hunting?
14511Was the country quiet now?
14511Was there any ill- feeling towards the Marquis among the tenants?
14511Was your holding worth anything to you?
14511Were there many went out to America from about Loughrea?
14511What am I to do in such a case, my lord?
14511What can any one do to help such a man?
14511What could you reply to that?
14511What do they do with the wheat lands now?
14511What does a farm- hand get,I asked,"if he is hired for a long time?"
14511What has become of the road?
14511What made you go?
14511What wages do they get there?
14511Where did you live there?
14511Who would n''t let you?
14511Whose house is that?
14511Why not?
14511Why not?
14511Why?
14511Will the Papal Decree put a stop to what there is of it?
14511Work from the farmers, sir?
14511Would I get one then for ten pounds?
14511Would you seek a remedy, then,I asked,"in emigration?"
14511Yes,I said,"I am going to see Mr. Tener, the agent, who lives there, does n''t he?"
14511Yes,I said,"but did you pay over all the amount of the rent, or how much of it?"
14511You did n''t like America?
14511You do n''t expect to be''boycotted''for going to the Castle, do you?
14511You would, then, turn the great cattle farms of Meath,I said,"into peasant holdings?"
14511[ 24]Was the land so bad, then?"
14511''What do you want?''
14511After the train moved off, Mr. Gladstone said,"Was not that gentleman who so kindly vacated his place for us a clergyman?"
14511And he was drunk, or who''d ever have known he had it?"
14511And what is to be the end of it all?
14511Are these statements correct?
14511But I came back; and it was*** father that was the good man to me and to mine, else where would I be?"
14511But are not the farmers here, or the Guardians, obliged to build houses for the labourers?
14511But how is that possible?
14511But only the other day I went to a priest in the trouble we are in, and what do you think he said to me?
14511But this being thus, on what grounds are the rest of mankind invited to regard this excellent man as a"victim"worthy of sympathy and of material aid?
14511But what rule can possibly be too stern to crush out the terrorism which makes such things possible?
14511But what would he know about America?
14511But why did n''t you stay in North Brookfield?"
14511But why do you want protection?
14511Could it be the banshee?
14511DEAR SIR,--May I ask you to read the following circular for the people at each of the Masses on Sunday, 19th April?
14511Did Canon Keller ever see this address, may I ask, Mr. Ponsonby?
14511Did you know him?
14511Gilhooly?"
14511He demurred to this, and after a parley said,"Would a certificate do?"
14511He did it all; and now, what were they doing to him?
14511He said,''Why did n''t you do as you were bid?
14511How could he help it?
14511How did they come to be in the road?
14511How had he come to be in arrears of a year in August 1886?
14511How is this?
14511How was it with Mr. Egan?
14511I asked her,"said**"what reason they had for imagining that after all these years I would try to do them an injury?
14511I asked if there were no regular farm- labourers hired at fixed rates by the year?
14511I thought there was an Act of Parliament about that?"
14511I wonder whether this proceeding would make the landlord a"land- grabber,"and expose him to the pains and penalties of"boycotting"?
14511If this was not a fair free hand, what would be?
14511Is it a question of principle, or a question of price?"
14511Is it not a shame for men like you to lie down and let those fellows walk over you, and drive you out of your livelihood and your homes?"
14511Is that it?"
14511Is the farmers that way in America?"
14511It was n''t as good a country, was it, as old Ireland?
14511It''s a magistrate he is that lives there; and why?
14511Kilbride?"
14511Men are fools enough of themselves, do n''t you think, without needing to listen to women?"
14511Of course I had a small capital to start with: but where did I get that?
14511Of course with a benevolent neutral like myself, the question always recurs, Who trained them to submit to this sort of thing?
14511On this the priest testily and tartly broke in,"Do you mean the man without hands or feet?"
14511Pray tell me then, where I shall find the story of the Luggacurren property most fully and fairly set forth in print?"
14511Shall we make use of Home Rule to take it for ourselves?
14511The chairman looked up, and said,''Surely that is not your name you are reading, is it?''
14511Then, what was the finding on this inquisition, which should have been substantially as perfect as an indictment?
14511Two girls, too, called out at the eviction,''You''ve bad pluck; why did n''t you tell us you were coming down the day?''
14511Upon what charge could the woman have been implicated on that vague finding?
14511Was it for the constituted authorities or for the next- of- kin?
14511Were you ever at Ballinasloe?
14511Were you ever in Australia, sorr?"
14511Were**** dispossessed or driven out of Ireland, all this outlay would come to an end, and with what result to these working- men?
14511What am I to do?
14511What are the facts about Mr. Flavin?
14511What do they care for the labourers?
14511What do you want a war for?"
14511What for would n''t they ride over it?"
14511What in these circumstances would have been the position of this landlord had he not possessed ample means not invested in this particular estate?
14511What is his name?"
14511What was the result before the Chief Commissioner?
14511What were your personal relations with the tenants when you were at Inchiquin?
14511When so much is known of the methods and the men, why is it that so many crimes are committed with virtual impunity?
14511Where does the hardship appear in all this to Mr. Dunne or Mr. Kilbride?
14511Who can wonder that it should have been regarded by Protestants in that diocese as a direct stirring up of bitter religious animosities against them?
14511Who foots the bills?
14511Who shall sit in judgment on that wretched mother and her son?
14511Who were they?"
14511Whom does such a member of Parliament represent-- the constituents who nominally elect him, or the leader who cracks the whip over him so sharply?
14511Whom has all this advantaged?
14511Why do n''t he naturalise them in America?
14511Why not, if the plan was"legal"?
14511Why were they evicted?
14511Will you take a deposit- receipt of the bank for ten pounds and give me the pound change?
14511Will you take the half- year?"
14511Would you think that right, sir, in your country?"
14511Would your people make a State of it?"
14511[ 29] Where would that poor woman be now were there no"Coercion"in Ireland to protect her against"Crowner''s quest law"thus administered?
14511exclaimed Denis,"what on earth are ye giving me all this money for?"
14511exclaimed the confessor, angrily rubbing at his sleeve,"why did n''t ye tell me that before instead of letting me spoil my best cassock?"
14511my son,"he cried at last,"what had all these men done to you that you tried to send them all into eternity?
14511sure you would n''t have us to pay the costs?"
14511which member?"
14511who ever heard of such a thing?
14511with whom?
14511would we get protection for the cattle?
3798Do n''t you think a leg of mutton enough for any man?
3798What is it worth?
3798What then-- what then?
3798But how shall I describe his death?
3798Hunyady was not wise enough( what gamblers are?)
3798I said,"What the deuce shall I do with my horse?"
3798If you met him in society, or at the clubs, he was never known to salute you but with the invariable phrase,"What news have you?"
3798In appearance he was one of that sort of persons whom you could not pass in the streets without exclaiming,"Who can that be?"
3798One day a youthful beau approached Brummell and said,"Permit me to ask you where you get your blacking?"
3798Prince Metternich turned at last to his guest, and said,"Et vous, my Lord, que pensez vous de Napoleon?"
3798The noble Lord kept his word, and the first thing he heard from Mr. Taylor was,"Well, my lord, what news?
3798Then he continued, in a wild and eccentric manner:"Gronow, do you remember the beautiful Martha, the Hebe of Spiers''s?
3798What was one partner among so many?
3798When this story was told at the clubs, one of those listeners, who always want something more, called out,"Well, and what did Waters say?"
3798Why are you not with your battalion in London?
3798assented to Lord Grey''s Proposition to pass the Reform Bill coute qui coute,"Who is Silly Billy now?"
3798repeated the Duke;"have you sent for a doctor?"
3798what had you for dinner?"
3798why do n''t they come and pitch into those French fellows?"
12074Have you read the''New Bath Guide''? 12074 Indeed?"
12074Sire, j''ai appris à penser--"Des chevaux?
12074[ 1] Has Lord Cholmondeley delivered my pacquet? 12074 --Could I see his letters?"
12074--How can one want to know one does not know what?
1207445, will that wretched Scot furnish matter?
12074Am not I here at peace, unconnected with Courts and Ministries, and indifferent who is Minister?
12074And who but runs that risk who is an author after seventy?
12074And you, dear Sir, will you now chide my apostasy?
12074Are those who have landed estates the poor?
12074At least, could you not tell me you had changed your mind?
12074At that instant, who do you think presented himself as Lord Bute''s guardian angel?
12074Before his madness he was indisposed towards Pitt; will he be better pleased with him for his new dictatorial presumption?
12074Besides, I shall not go to Paris for pharaoh-- if I play all night, how shall I see everything all day?
12074But I seem to choose to read futurity, because I am not likely to see it: indeed I am most rational when I say to myself, What is all this to me?
12074But no wonder-- how should the morals of the people be purified, when such frantic dissipation reigns above them?
12074But tell me, ye divines, which is the most virtuous man, he who begets twenty bastards, or he who sacrifices a hundred thousand lives?
12074But what became of his poor play?
12074But what care you, Madam, about our Parliament?
12074But what do I talk of?
12074But what have I to do to look into futurity?
12074Can I ever stoop to the regimen of old age?
12074Can not you, now and then, sleep at the Adelphi on a visit to poor Vesey and your friends, and let one know if you do?
12074Can one fear anything in the dregs of life as at the beginning?
12074Can we wonder mankind is wretched, when men are such beings?
12074Did I tell you that Mrs. Anne Pitt is returned, and acts great grief for her brother?
12074Did not you say you should return to London long before this time?
12074Do n''t you recollect very similar passages in the time of Mr. Pelham, the Duke of Newcastle, Lord Granville, and Mr. Fox?
12074Do you believe me, my good Sir, when I tell you all these strange tales?
12074Do you imagine people are struck with the death of a man, who were not struck with the sudden appearance of his death?
12074Do you never hear them to Paris?
12074Do you think I am indifferent, or not curious about what you write?
12074Do you think I have no conscience?
12074Do you think Rousseau was in the right, when he said that he could tell what would be the manners of any capital city from certain given lights?
12074Do you think me distracted, or that your country is so?
12074Does he wait to strike some great stroke, when everything is demolished?
12074Does not Mr. Henshaw come to London?
12074Does not she_ now_ show that it was?
12074Does not the wretched woman owe her fame to you, as well as her affluence?
12074Does not this letter seem an olio composed of ingredients picked out of the history of Charles I., of Clodius and Sesostris, and the"Arabian Nights"?
12074Gray_ advertised: I called directly at Dodsley''s to know if this was to be more than a new edition?
12074Has Madame de Cambis sung to you"_ Sans dépit, sans légèreté_?
12074Have I not cleared myself to your eyes?
12074Have not I done with that world?
12074Have the poor landed estates?
12074Have you anything you wish printed?
12074Have you never a wish this way?
12074He is a good King that preserves his people; and if temporising answers that end, is it not justifiable?
12074How can one regret such a general_ Boute- feu_?
12074How do I know but I am superannuated?
12074How we should laugh at anybody being banished to Soho Square and Hammersmith?
12074How will he digest that discovery of his treasure, which will not diffuse great compassion when he shall next ask a payment of his pretended debts?
12074I declare I will ask no more questions-- what is it to me, whether she is admired or not?
12074I do n''t know when I shall see you, but therefore must not I write to you?
12074I do n''t love to transgress my monthly regularity; yet, as you must prefer facts to words, why should I write when I have nothing to tell you?
12074I feel the season advancing, when mine will be piteous short; for what can I tell you from Twickenham in the next three or four months?
12074I hope it will not be long before you remove to Hampton.--Yet why should I wish that?
12074I know she would assist only them: but were it not better to connive at her assisting them, without attacking us, than her doing both?
12074I look about for a Sir Robert Walpole; but where is he to be found?
12074I mean, not morally, but has Europe left itself any other honour?
12074I neither flatter myself on one hand, nor am impatient on the other-- for will either do one any good?
12074I remember, at Rheims, they believed that English ladies went to Calais to drink champagne-- is this the suite of that belief?
12074I should be glad to know what is the property of the poor?
12074If the Monarch prevails, he becomes absolute as a Czar; if he is forced to bend, will the Parliament stop there?
12074If you question my sincerity, can you doubt my admiring you, when you have gratified_ my_ self- love so amply in your"Bas Bleu"?
12074In truth, what do our contemporaries of all other countries think of us?
12074Is a brickmaker on a level with Mr. Essex?
12074Is anything more hyperbolic than his preferences of Rowley to Homer, Shakspeare, and Milton?
12074Is he a professor, or only a lover of engraving?
12074Is it not amazing that the most sensible people in France can never help being domineered by sounds and general ideas?
12074Is not Garrick reckoned a tolerable actor?
12074Is not he yet arrived at Florence?
12074Is not it clear that Will Wimble was a gentleman, though he always lived at a distance from good company?
12074Is not it too great a compliment to me to be abused, too?
12074Is not policy the honour of nations?
12074Is this one of those that you object to?
12074It is said Shakespeare was a bad actor; why do not his divine plays make our wise judges conclude that he was a good one?
12074It may not be more sincere( and why should it?)
12074Lady Holland asked her how she liked Strawberry Hill?
12074Most people ask,"Is there any news?"
12074O, ye fathers of your people, do you thus dispose of your children?
12074One fellow cried out,"Are you for Wilkes?"
12074P.S.--Is there any china left in the Great Duke''s collection, made by Duke Francis the First himself?
12074Pray, can you distinguish between his_ cock_ and_ hen_ Heghes, and between all Yasouses and Ozoros?
12074Pray, is there any picture of Camilla Martelli, Cosmo''s last wife?
12074Scandal from Richmond and Hampton Court, or robberies at my own door?
12074Shall I send away this short scroll, or reserve it to the end of the session?
12074She has suffered us to undo ourselves: will she allow us time to recover?
12074She has, I fear, been_ infinitamente_ indiscreet; but what is that to you or me?
12074Should one almost wonder if carpenters were to remonstrate, that since the peace their trade decays, and that there is no demand for wooden legs?
12074That is mortifying; but what signifies who has the undoing it?
12074The first question I shall ask when I go to town will be, how my Lord Chatham does?
12074Their pleasures are no more entertaining to others, than delightful to themselves; one is tired of asking every day, who has won or lost?
12074Their taste in it is worst of all: could one believe that when they read our authors, Richardson and Mr. Hume should be their favourites?
12074They have not a proof of the contrary, as they have in Garrick''s works-- but what is it to you or me what he is?
12074They talk of the waste of money; are silent on the thousands of lives that have been sacrificed-- but when are human lives counted by any side?
12074Though the words are used by moderns, would_ major_ convey to Cicero the idea of a_ mayor_?

12074What a vulgar employment for a fine woman''s eyes after she is risen from her toilet?
12074What can I say more?
12074What can invite him to this country?
12074What do you Italians think of Harlequin Potesta?
12074What do you think of a winter Ranelagh[1] erecting in Oxford Road, at the expense of sixty thousand pounds?
12074What do you think of an idea of mine of offering France a neutrality?
12074What does it avail to give a Latin tail to a Guildhall?
12074What happened to the greatest author of this age, and who certainly retained a very considerable portion of his abilities for ten years after my age?
12074What has become of all your reading?
12074What has he and the world''s concerns to do with one another?
12074What has one to do when turned fifty, but really think of_ finishing_?

12074my dear sir, do you think a capital as enormous as London has its nerves affected by what happens beyond the Atlantic?
12074now, how will this new change of scene operate?

37058Think ye,asked Mary,"that subjects having the power may resist their princes?"
37058Whereunto the King made answer, and said,''What then? 37058 [ 148] Was there any love existing at this time between Mary and her minister?
37058[ 149] Was Mary in love with Bothwell at this date? 37058 And what may I say more? 37058 Are the detected fabrications of the one, entitled to any better consideration than the gratuitous suppositions of the other? 37058 Beaton asked,--Who is there?"
37058Elizabeth herself seems to have been quite contented with its hue, for she very complacently asked Sir James, whether she or Mary had the finer hair?
37058Elizabeth next asked which of them was of highest stature?
37058Had they, on the other hand, any sufficient grounds for proceeding to further extremities against her?
37058Having achieved all their more immediate objects, the only remaining question was-- what were they to do with the Queen?
37058Is it surprising then, that she found it difficult to steer her course between the rocks of Scylla and the whirlpools of Charybdis?

37058what should he else do?
15254After the Roman Catholic Question was settled, what ought the government to have done?
15254And even if such were the case, what are we to do with our own corn?
15254And how did that one then stand?
15254And to what, I would ask, is this owing?
15254And what did he do?
15254And what has been the object of these individuals in the course which they have pursued?
15254And what is the sort of political tranquillity existing in Ireland?
15254And what was the meaning of the publications in the government newspapers, libelling and maligning all those who opposed the Bill?
15254Are the people ruined who require and can pay for these new houses?
15254Are we on this account to throw aside every guard for the maintenance of Christianity in the country?
15254At whose expense?
15254But I want to know whether this was, as the noble viscount insinuates, an unprecedented act?
15254But I would appeal to your Lordships, whether your own experience, in matters of this description, confirms the correctness of this statement?
15254But are there no corn laws in those countries?
15254But how comes the question now before your Lordships?
15254But how had that concession been received by the people of Ireland?
15254But is that the state of things in Lower Canada?
15254But it is not the property of the Church alone-- what do you say of the lay impropriator?
15254But then, my Lords, the noble Lord asks,"how would you secure to them their dividends?"
15254But then, was there not a very good reason for this?
15254But what else have I to do?
15254But what happened at Lyons-- were the disturbances there so easily quelled?
15254But why did I not object to those powers being given to the Earl of Durham?
15254But, instead of such a course being pursued, what has been done in the present instance?
15254But, my Lords, is it exactly true, that taking foreign corn would have the effect of enabling other countries to purchase them?
15254But, my lords, I beg to know whether poverty can be relieved by this description of agitation for the repeal of the union?
15254Can any body say, that the Government is now left in the situation in which it ought to be left with respect to finances?
15254Did any man ever before hear of taxes being imposed, for any purpose whatever, excepting to supply the necessities of the State?
15254Did that arise from the people of Ireland having a less clear idea of national independence than other people?
15254Did we ever hear of corn coming in from abroad, and being brought to market at a cheaper rate than it was selling for in this country?
15254Do you suppose that men of their description do not calculate on the events which are likely to happen?
15254Do you suppose that they do not read the history of past times?
15254Do your lordships suppose that the Protestants of Ireland are not aware of that fact?
15254For, after all, what are these Chartists, that are found marching about the country, and engaged in the disturbances that prevail?
15254Has sufficient time been given to those measures to ascertain their effect?
15254Has the noble earl heard of no laws prohibiting all exportation of corn to other countries?
15254How are these troops situated?
15254How can the noble Lord suppose, that the Church of England can be protected, or even the Union itself preserved in a Reformed Parliament?
15254How can we control the subjects of foreign powers?
15254How could he be in office under a minister whom he must oppose on, at least, one vital question of domestic policy?
15254How could he give the right honourable gentleman that fair support which one member of a cabinet had a right to expect from another?
15254How is any Government to meet that question?
15254I ask, is there any security in that?
15254I ask, then, whether such a system can be more effectual in this country, than that under which we have so long prospered?
15254I ask, what case has been made out to shew a necessity for passing this measure?
15254I beg leave, my Lords, to ask, what want is there of any additional circulation, when the circulation is at present greater than it ever was?
15254I beg to know from that noble and learned Lord how long the system of agitation existed in Ireland both before and after the year 1825?
15254I put legislation out of the question; but can the King from that Throne give to his subjects the necessary protection for their rights and property?
15254I say then my Lords, is any property held so sacred by our laws as tithes?
15254I want to hear how Government is to carry any measure, on the appointment of a new Parliament?
15254I want to know this-- has he, in any one case, carried into execution the provisions of the Tithe Act?
15254I want to know why the magistrates at Carlow and at Cork did not obtain the same support when pursuing a similar course?
15254If I had all the eloquence of all the tongues ever attuned to speak, what else could I do?
15254If this democratic assembly should once be established in England, does any one believe that we should continue to enjoy these vast advantages?
15254In point of fact the army was withdrawn; and even if it had not been withdrawn, what was its force?
15254Is a man to be robbed and ruined, because he possesses property in tithe?
15254Is it believed that Louis Philippe has lost his senses?
15254Is it intended that we are to subsidise France?
15254Is it necessary to have a more extended circulation, to afford the means of procuring loans of money to those who have no capital and no credit?
15254Is it, then, to be suffered, that the Pope, and his Majesty, or his Majesty''s secretary of state acting for him, should make law for this country?
15254Is not that circumstance alone, I ask your Lordships, a proof of the increasing prosperity of the country?
15254Is poverty relieved by marches of twenty- five and thirty Irish miles a- day, during the period of spring and summer, to hear seditious speeches?
15254Is poverty relieved by subscriptions of thousands of pounds to the repeal rent, and the O''Connell rent, and other funds of that description?
15254Is there a single instance of any tithe having been collected by Government under that Act?
15254Is there any doubt as to the religious sentiments of this prince?
15254Is this House to be destroyed?
15254It was said, that his asking in reply to Mr. Canning''s first letter,"who was to be at the head of the new government?"
15254It was the state that was in danger; and from what?
15254Most certainly they ought to have done everything in their power to conciliate-- whom?
15254My Lords, is all to be lost, because the noble Lords opposite have taken this course?
15254My lords, I wish to know with what object they were continued?
15254No my Lords; and why do we hear none of this?
15254Now, I want to know, whether Portugal will not be as important to us during the agitation of that question as it has been previously?
15254Now, my Lords, before I go further, let me beg you to consider what is the nature of that proposition?
15254Now, my Lords, what is the ordinary course for a minister, under such circumstances, to pursue?
15254Now, of whom does this class of electors consist?
15254Now, what does this mean?
15254Or is it to lend its aid to destroy the constitution, because Ministers persevere in this course?
15254Such is the present state of this question, but how would it have stood had not that other to which he alluded been carried two years ago?
15254Supposing that the growth of the sugar should, from the causes I have mentioned, fail in the West Indies, where are we to get sugar?
15254The next act we have is the act of Union with Scotland; and what does that act say?
15254The question is, what security does the existing system of laws, as they now stand, afford the church establishment?
15254Then, again, has the noble lord not heard of the high duties imposed on the exportation of corn from those countries during the late wars?
15254Then, my lords, what happened?
15254Then, why is it not so stated?
15254Was it with a view to address parliament to repeal the union?
15254Was that the case with the Jews?
15254Well then, my Lords, what follows?
15254Well, my Lords, what happened in the very next session?
15254Well, then, what must be inferred from the notoriety of that fact?
15254Well, you may let him out, if you please; but, surely, you would not call upon the plaintiffs to pay the costs incurred by_ his_ conduct?
15254Were tests any security for the heathen religion against the vital spirit of the heaven- descended energy of Christianity?
15254Were tests any security to the Roman Catholic religion, against the growing light and energy of the Protestant faith?
15254Were tests any security to these very universities themselves?
15254Were the Jews ever in the enjoyment of the blessings of the English constitution?
15254What advantages, then, can accrue to the people of Malta from the establishment of a free press?
15254What are we to expect, when the whole will be of the same description?
15254What brought me through many difficulties in the war, and the negociations for peace?
15254What but that the repeal of the union, so far as a vote of parliament is concerned, is hopeless?
15254What is Malta?
15254What is the consequence?
15254What is the object of the arrangement?
15254What must we expect when these lower classes will preponderate everywhere?
15254What security, then, I ask, my Lords, is to be found in the existing system?
15254What then became our duty?
15254What then, I would ask your Lordships, is to be expected hereafter, should the system laid down in this Bill be established in this country?
15254What was the consequence?
15254What was the course then adopted by Parliament?
15254What was the meaning, I ask, of the friends of government taking the course they have taken out of doors, with reference to the Reform Bill?
15254What was the next step of which the Protestants of Ireland complained?
15254Whence has the money come?
15254Who led them there?
15254Who pays the increased rents for them?
15254Who pays the money for re- building these houses?
15254Who, then, is it for?
15254Why, I ask, by its delay after the year 1825?
15254Why, I ask-- for what reason-- is all this to be done?
15254Why?
15254Why?
15254Will any man venture to say, that Catholic power does not exist at present, either here or in Ireland?
15254Will not our reception in the Tagus, and friendly occupation of it, be as important to England now, as it has been heretofore?
15254With the exception of one or two questions of high constitutional principle, the"_ cui bono?_"is the view his mind naturally takes.
15254Would the manufacturer find any advantage in it, when the diminished value of their wages was forcing the labourers to raise the market upon him?
15254Would the manufacturing labourer benefit by this?
15254Would the merchant exporter gain anything by the change?

33613Do you remember how he treated the monks of the Charter House?
33613Do you remember how many good things he did for England?
33613Do you remember that he and his Parliament broke the links which bound together the Churches of Rome and England?
33613Do you remember that the monks said Sebert, King of the East Saxons, rebuilt St. Peter''s Abbey?
33613Do you remember what happened in 1588?
33613Do you see that the old tomb is covered with purple velvet?
33613Do you wonder that he forgot all about his fishing?
33613Do you wonder that the Queen wanted to see the ship which had made such a voyage?
33613Do you wonder they lost heart and came back to England?
33613First of all, he was Lord Mayor three times, or, rather, may we not say three and a half times?
33613Had he another hope, I wonder, hidden away in his heart, of which he did not speak-- that he might also search for and find his Golden City?
33613Has any city, I wonder, ever suffered so great a loss?

33613Were the English rising against them?
33613Were the Londoners sad and miserable when they looked at the ruins?
33613Were the monks missed?
33613What could he do about this?
33613What could the shouts mean?
33613What did they find to do?
33613What do we see?
33613What has it to do with London?
33613What help did London give?
33613What would happen to them?
33613Where are they now?

38513when they haue not their Generall an eye witnesse of their performance?
38513when they want his sight, his encouragement, his example to enflame them to valour?
38513with what heart should the Souldiers fight, when they haue not his presence for whom they fight?
15702Admitting, then, the enormity of this unnatural rebellion in favor of the independence of Ireland, will it follow that it must be avenged forever?
15702And was there no civil society at all in these kingdoms before the Reformation?
15702And who was this representative?
15702Are these the questions that raise a flame in the minds of men at this day?
15702Are they mistaken?
15702Are they not the very same ruffians, thieves, assassins, and regicides that they were from the beginning?
15702Are we to govern this mixed body as if it were composed of the most simple elements, comprehending the whole in one system of benevolent legislation?
15702At what period did they not give this assurance?
15702But did the administration in that reign avail themselves of any one of those opportunities?
15702But in what light must we see it?
15702But is it permitted to ask what security it affords to the liberty of the subject, that the prince is pacific or frugal?
15702But is this enough, and has the parent purchased his repose by such a surrender?
15702But who gave Robespierre the power of being a tyrant?
15702But who will answer for the temper of a House of Commons elected under these circumstances?
15702Can Spain keep herself internally where she is, with this connection?
15702Can they now declare more fully their respect for property than they did at that time?
15702Did they not declare that no property should be confiscated from the children for the crime of the parent?
15702Did they not give it; when they fabricated their first Constitution?
15702Disappointed in their expectation at[ of?]
15702Do you think that our friend Mrs. Vesey will suffer her husband to vote for a tax that is to destroy the evenings at Bolton Row?
15702Do you think us children?
15702Does he dream that Spain, unchristian, or even uncatholic, can exist as a monarchy?
15702Does he feel nothing for the condition of Portugal under this new coalition?
15702Does he mean that we are to avoid such wars as that of the Grand Alliance, made on a speculation of danger to the independence of Europe?
15702Does it mean the direct contrary to the terms,_ an unlimited period_?
15702For what else do they disfranchise the people?
15702For what purpose are the Irish and Plantation laws sent hither, but as means of preserving this sovereign constitution?
15702For which of her vices did they put to death the mildest of all human creatures, the Duchess of Biron?
15702For which of his vices did that great magistrate, D''Espréménil, lose his fortune and his head?
15702For which of the vices of that pattern of benevolence, of piety, and of all the virtues, did they put her to death?
15702For why should I prefer your opinion of to- day to your persuasion of yesterday?
15702For, if they should grow to be frequent, in what would they differ from an abrogation of the rule itself?
15702France was losing her preponderance?
15702From what funds is it to be drawn?
15702Has she lost her preponderance over Spain by her influence in Spain?
15702Has this author had in his view the transactions between the Regicide Republic and the yet nominally subsisting monarchy of Spain?
15702Have men no self- interest, no avarice, no repugnance to public imposts?
15702Have they diversified the scene by the least variety, or produced the face of a single new villany?
15702Have they ever once proposed to treat?
15702Have they made any single step towards it?
15702Have they no sturdy and restive minds, no undisciplined habits?
15702Have they told anything of the reformation and of the returning loyalty of the Jacobins of England?
15702Have they told us of_ their_ gradual softening towards royalty?
15702Have we anything to apprehend from Jacobin communication, or have we not?
15702He ought to have followed the good advice of his motto:"_ Que faire encore dans une telle nuit?
15702How is he to escape this_ ricochet_ cross- firing of so many opposite batteries of police and regulation?
15702If it is a limited period, what limitation does he fix as a ground for his opinion?
15702If the execution already ordered can not be postponed, might I venture to recommend that it should extend to one only?
15702If this principle be denied or evaded, what ground have we left to reason on?
15702In any overtures for peace, did he ever declare that he would make no sacrifices to promote it?
15702In this state of matters, what, think you, have they done?
15702Is it by another treaty of commerce?
15702Is it for this benefit we open"the usual relations of peace and amity"?
15702Is it for this our youth of both sexes are to form themselves by travel?
15702Is it for this state of things he recommends our junction in that common alliance as a remedy?
15702Is it for this that with expense and pains we form their lisping infant accents to the language of France?
15702Is it from the King of Prussia, and his steady good affections, and his powerful navy, that we are to look for the guaranty of our security?
15702Is it from the powerful states of Holland we are to reclaim our guaranty?
15702Is it only an oppressive nightmare with which we have been loaded?
15702Is it the_ navis Hispanæ magister_?
15702Is it to be furnished by the Prince of Peace?
15702Is it, then, all a frightful dream, and are there no regicides in the world?
15702Is not the direct contrary the fact?
15702Is the fate of the Queen of France to produce this softening of character?
15702Is this a lesson of_ moderation_ to a descendant of Maria Theresa, drawn from the fate of the daughter of that incomparable woman and sovereign?
15702Is this our style of talk, when"all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death"?
15702Is this, or anything like this, asked in favor of any human creature in Ireland?
15702Is, then, no improvement to be brought into society?
15702Little also[ else?]
15702Look on Sweden and on Denmark: is her preponderance less visible there?
15702On the contrary, you have, all of you, as principals or auxiliaries, a much better[ hotter?]
15702Other inconveniences, too, will result to particular parts: and why?
15702So far as to the French communication here:--what will be the effect of our communication there?
15702Tell me, my friend, do its terrors appall you into an abject submission, or rouse you to a vigorous defence?
15702The rest of the malefactors ought to be either condemned, for larger[ longer?]
15702They paid their compliment to Washington solely: and on what ground?
15702They will be_ able_ to do so, without question; but are they willing to do so?
15702To this our new humiliating overture( such, at whatever hazard, I must call it) what did the Regicide Directory answer?
15702To what are we reserved?
15702To- day the question is this: Are we to make the best of this situation, which we can not alter?
15702Under what robes did they cover the disgrace and degradation of the whole college of kings?
15702Was she a person so very ferocious and cruel, as, by the example of her death, to frighten us into common humanity?
15702What do the Irish statutes?
15702What ferocity of character drew on the fate of Elizabeth, the sister of King Louis the Sixteenth?
15702What government of Europe, either in its origin or its continuance, has thought it necessary to declare itself in favor of property?
15702What hinders this monster from being sent as ambassador to convey to his Majesty the first compliments of his brethren, the Regicide Directory?
15702What in the end can come of all this?
15702What is Jacobinism?
15702What is meant by a_ limited period of time_?
15702What is taxing the resort to and residence in any place, but declaring that your connection with that place is a grievance?
15702What is the comment upon this law by the great jurist who recommends us to the tribunal which issued the decree?
15702What lesson does the iniquity of prevalent factions read to us?
15702What lesson of moderation does it teach the Pope?
15702What need had they to make this declaration, if they did not know that by their doctrines and practices they had totally subverted all property?
15702What other name can be given to a country which contains so many hundred thousands of human creatures reduced to a state of the most abject servitude?
15702What party purpose did my conduct answer at that time?
15702What say you to the Regicide empire of to- day?
15702What shall I say in excuse for this long letter, which frightens me when I look back upon it?
15702What shall we say to this case?
15702What signifies the cutting and shuffling of cards, while the pack still remains the same?
15702What warehouses of masks and dominoes furnished a cover to the nakedness of their shame?
15702What, gracious sovereign, is the empire of America to us, or the empire of the world, if we lose our own liberties?
15702What, then, are all these lessons about the_ softening_ the character of sovereigns by this Regicide peace?
15702Whence is their amendment?
15702Who does not see the utter insufficiency of such a remedy, if such a remedy could be at all adopted?
15702Who is to be the_ dedecorum pretiosus emptor_?
15702Who is to furnish it?
15702Who will answer for the courage of a House of Commons to arm the crown with the extraordinary powers that it may demand?
15702Why, what had I to say?
15702Will any one presume, against both authority and opinion, to hold up this unfashionable, antiquated, exploded Constitution?
15702Will he point out the other sovereigns who are to be reformed by this peace?
15702Will he say whether the King of Sardinia''s horrible tyranny was the cause of the loss of Savoy and of Nice?
15702Will you have the goodness to excuse the length of this letter?
15702Will you send out with one breath and recall with another?
15702and who were the instruments of his tyranny?
15702are we not to believe them?
15702or are we not rather to provide for the several parts according to the various and diversified necessities of the heterogeneous nature of the mass?
15702would his country have lost nothing in the cultivated taste with which he has adorned it in so many ways?
15702would his friends have lost nothing in the companion?

36842And we?
36842Are we alone among the nations created to be slaves and helots?

36842But how are we going to get our freedom?
36842Can we forget in reviewing the state of Ireland what happened in 1782?"

36842Do we alone among the ancient Nations of Europe desire to remain slaves?
36842Do we mean the use of physical force?
36842Does the difficulty lie in our poverty?
36842How did that come?
36842How have we striven to oust this big profiteer who sweats and coerces us?
36842How?
36842If Holland and Poland and all the other little lands, why not Ireland?
36842If the Act of Union is a criminal fraud, can we accept and acknowledge it, by going to Westminster?
36842If the English occupation of Ireland is immoral and tyrannical, can we swear loyalty to it?

36842Is it the sole mission of Irish men and women to send beef and butter to John Bull?
36842Is our population too small-- though it was once double?

36842Were n''t we"represented"at Westminster?
36842What did we ever get in the past by trying to conciliate them?

28649How much Militia has been and will be embodied?
28649How much serviceable ammunition is there both of Artillery and small arms in the country?
28649I asked,"But can you stop it?"
28649I suppose you have read Monsieur About''s book about Rome[63]?
28649I trust, dearest Uncle, you are quite well now-- and that affairs will not prevent you from coming to see us next month?
28649Is M. de Persigny or the Emperor Napoleon''s opinion to be the guide, as they just now proposed to us?
28649Is the Memorandum for the Queen to keep?
28649Likewise does Lord Aberdeen think that a morning visit to the Duchess of Aumale to enquire after her health would be imprudent?
28649Lord Palmerston started up and asked:"Does that mean Reform?"
28649Mais dans quel but allons- nous demander à nos deux pays de nouveaux sacrifices d''hommes et d''argent?

28649May I therefore beg them to be sent?
28649Now the Congress is then postponed, but what is to be done with Italy?
28649Now what is it that Lord Palmerston has approved?
28649On the other hand, would the position of a Secretary of State be compatible with his being President of a Council?
28649Or would you prefer coming in October, when we return from Scotland?
28649Perhaps Lord Palmerston would circulate this letter amongst the members of the Committee who agreed upon the proposed scheme?
28649Perhaps a pension should be awarded to him?

38627It is of this marvellous tribute, and how it was won, that we should think,--not of this or that foible or shortcoming, for who is without them?
38627She admired it greatly, and asked,"Who is this Edward?"

37921Does from Forest Gate on the east, to Richmond on the west, span its limits in one direction?

37921Fyfield( how many dozens of Fyfields are there in England?)
37921Has Brentford risen to the occasion?
37921He instantly recognized my voice, so said,''Charley, what are you doing on my road?''
37921If they went protected as I do, what occasion would there be to fear any man, even Hawkes himself?"
37921It is a curious literary puzzle-- How did the title of the"Pickwick Papers"originate?
37921Says he,''Madam, pray what mean ye?
37921Shall I weary you by recounting more of these highway crimes?
37921Then, when the Princess Amelia, daughter of George the Third, begged him to allow another dance after eleven o''clock, what did this potentate reply?
37921They may in this year of grace, but where will the boundary of continuous brick and mortar be set ten years hence?

37921What says Pope?
37921What would happen, I often speculated, if both those heroes were away?
37921What, then, more natural, we are asked, than for one accosted by a mendicant to recall this topographical notoriety, and bid the rogue"go to Bath"?
37921Where are the"Bear,"the"George,"the"Crown"?
37921Whither should fowl flock in a hard frost but to the barn- door?
37921Who shall decide where antiquaries disagree?
37921Who that knows Kew Bridge has not an affection for that hump- backed old structure, although it presents many difficulties to the rider?
37921Why was this?
37921Will you please to walk out of the Coach and let me have the Honour to dance one Currant with her upon the Heath?''
37921Would, one take a glass, in that case, with Friar Tuck or Maid Marian?
37921You see the humour of it?
37921and from Wood Green on the northern heights, to Croydon on the south, encompass it on the other?
37921and where will then be the pleasant resorts of the present- day wheelman?
37921said Mr. Pickwick;''are n''t the names down on the way- bill?''
36656And to what intent and purpose was all this zeal, if you will sink under the ruin of the very fabric ye have pulled down?
36656And when your liberties are gone, how long will your religion remain?
36656And whither are you going?
36656And why was that union so vigorously opposed by all those that adhered to the jacobite interest?
36656Are they not the friends of France and Rome?
36656But if that is not sufficient, what do they say to you as to his love of the liberty of his country?
36656But what has all this been for?
36656Can he have any notion of government there but what is cruel, oppressive, absolute, and despotic?
36656Do not all the papists join with them?
36656Do not all those who hated the revolution, and who long to restore arbitrary government, join with them?
36656For God''s sake, Britons, what are you doing?
36656Has he been bred up in a tyrannical absolute court for nothing?
36656Have they not been twenty years trying your strength, till they find it impossible for them to master you?
36656How shall the Church of England stand, when in subjection to the Church of Rome?
36656If he can be ungrateful to the king of France, who has done so much for him, what must he be to you, who have done so much against him?
36656Is he not tied by the laws of friendship and gratitude to be so?
36656Is this acting like Britons; like protestants, like lovers of liberty?
36656Nay, is it acting like men of reasonable souls, and men who have the light of common sense to act by?
36656To what dreadful precipices are ye hurrying yourselves?
36656To what purpose was the revolution?
36656What principles of government will he come over with?
36656When set upon the British throne, who are his allies and confederates?
36656When this was done, why did ye mock God with a thanksgiving,[9] and banter the world with your pretended praises to heaven for your deliverance?
36656Wherefore thy nation exhausted; thy trade sunk and interrupted; thy veins opened?
36656Who can save them that will destroy themselves?
36656Why all the money expended?
36656Why all this blood spilt?
36656Why did you cry in your oppressions to God and the Prince of Orange to deliver you?
36656Why did you mock yourselves at so vast an expense?
36656Why did you rise as one man against King James and his popish adherents?
36656Why in so many acts of parliament[12] is he called the great deliverer of the nation?
36656Why is he in so many addresses[11] styled the rescuer of this nation from popery and slavery?
36656Why the names of every person that should succeed, so expressly and particularly mentioned and set down?
36656Why was King James and his popish posterity entirely excluded for ever from enjoying the imperial crown of these realms?
36656Why was the settlement of the succession in a protestant line made the principal reason of uniting the two kingdoms together?
36656Why, if he will abjure the Romish errors and turn protestant, why, I say, do the papists speak in his favour?
36656Will he be so ungrateful as not to be always at the devotion and command of the French king?
36656Will he not always be in his interest, nay, ought he not to be so?
36656Will you be ruined by a people whom you ought to despise?
36656[ 13] Why so many acts of parliament[14] to secure that entail, and punish with death those who should reject or oppose it?
36656that persuade you to these things?
36656what ailest thee now?
36656who can stand by you then?

38735Could we have passed through this ornate doorway while the cloisters were still in use, what should we have met with in this"haunt of ancient peace"?

38735Was ever known The witless shepherd who persists to drive A flock that thirsts not to a pool disliked?
38735Was it likely that a mere youth should have solved this gigantic problem?
38735What must it have been to the rude implements of the ancients?
38735When asked, for example,"Why does the hull of a ship disappear below the horizon while the masts remain visible?"
38735Whence came about this curious delimitation?

40192Do you not know me?
40192Do you not see,said the Englishman,"that the Republic is lost?"
40192O friend,he said gently,"I have harm enough: what needed that?"
40192What shall we do with this bauble?
40192Did ever a good churchman question the dispensing power before?
40192Have not some of you preached for it and written for it?
40192He therefore looked Burnet in the face, replying only by another question:"Well, doctor, what do you think of predestination now?"
40192His father, he thought, had left the crown by will in the case of the failure of his own heirs( see p. 411), and why should not he?

30591''And do you mean that you believe there is any danger of that, and that the movement( the progress of improvement) ever can stand still?''
30591''Austin?
30591''Aye, but is he enough of a man of the world?
30591''Deputy- Governor?''
30591''Do they?
30591''Do you?''
30591''Oh no,''he said, laughing and chuckling, and shaking his great belly,''you do n''t really think I meant to allude to Brougham?''
30591''Order, my Lords?''
30591''Well, and what do they say now?''
30591''Well, but what is your opinion?''
30591''Well,''he said,''will it do?
30591''What can you expect''( as I forget who said)''from a man with a head like a pineapple?''
30591''What do you mean to do?''
30591''What do you think of Peel?''
30591''What is to happen?''
30591''What next?''
30591''What, by making Peers for life, as you suggest in your pamphlet?''
30591''What, then, would be the result?''
30591''What_ did_ you answer?''
30591''Why, you do n''t think he will abdicate?''
30591''Will Lord Grey propose such measures as you think indispensable?''
30591After speaking to Melbourne about it, Melbourne came over to him( Wharncliffe) and said,''Now tell me, have we been very bad in our appointments?''
30591August 25th, 1835[ Page Head: WHAT IS HAPPINESS?]
30591But who can wonder at these people, when we see the great Whig Lords smiling complacently at their brutal violence and senseless rage?
30591Can anything be more absurd or anomalous than such relations as these?
30591Did you ever read his book on"Jurisprudence"?''
30591Do we not see how lightly people treat their fortunes when they are under the passion of gaming?
30591Everybody asks, How long will Brougham be permitted to go on playing these ape''s tricks and scattering his flummery and his lies?
30591He and Stanley met at Madame de Lieven''s ball, and Peel said to him,''Why did you let that appointment take place?''
30591He owned there was truth in this,''but what could you do?
30591He said, talking of degrees,''Pray, Mr. Bickersteth, what is to prevent the London University granting degrees_ now_?''
30591He then said,''Why do n''t you take my resignation?''
30591He therefore resolved, and his brethren likewise, to give no advice at all; and when she turned to him, and said,''What do you think I ought to do?''
30591I asked him what Perceval seemed to be driving at, what was his definite object?
30591I asked,''Then is there anything you think worse than advancing the movement?''
30591I asked,''Why, if he wished they should stay in, he desired that they should be discredited?''
30591I do not mean that peace will be by these means restored to Ireland, or rather be bestowed on her, for when was she ever at peace?
30591I have stood against 300 of the House of Commons, and do you think I will give way to_ you_?''
30591I said,''Are they ready to place themselves in your hands, and agree to whatever you may think it necessary to do?''
30591I said,''What can he do?
30591I said,''Would Melbourne resign?''
30591It is too ludicrous, too melancholy, to think of the finances of this country being_ managed_ by such a man: what will not people endure?
30591It is very seldom that I indulge in moralising in this Journal of mine; if anybody ever reads it, what will they care for my feelings and regrets?

30591It was to him that O''Connell made the memorable but somewhat profane retort,''Paul, Paul, why persecutest thou me?'']
30591Lyndhurst said to somebody,''I shall attend no more, what''s the use of it?
30591Melbourne was there in roaring spirits; met me very cordially, and after dinner said,''Well, how are you?

30591On the other hand, if Peel resigns, the Opposition, should they return to power, must dissolve; for what can they do against 300 Tories?
30591One day at dinner Leopold called for water, when the King asked,''What''s that you are drinking, sir?''
30591People talk of their not going on; how can any others go on better?

30591Solicitor, what is your opinion?''
30591The Tories in the House of Commons are lukewarm, angry, frightened: they say, Why should we come and support a Government that wo n''t support itself?
30591The first question that arose was, What was to be done about the prorogation?
30591The man in a mask was Jack Ketch( whatever his name was); who can doubt it?
30591The question is, what Ministers will do-- go on with the Bill, or throw it up, resign, make Peers, or what?
30591There is no reason to believe that other constituencies materially differ from this; what therefore is the result?
30591They all ask the same question,''Do you make a long stay here?''
30591What can they do?
30591What is it, then, which menaces the existence of the constitution we live under?
30591What then?
30591What was the loud and eternal cry of the Lords, and of all the Conservatives, when the Reform Bill was in agitation?
30591What would a dissolution do for them?
30591When somebody cried,''Question,''he burst out,''Do you think to put me down?
30591Where was the man, Roundhead or Puritan, who as an amateur would have mounted the scaffold to perform this office?
30591Who could ever have thought of him in such a station?
30591Who laughs now?''
30591Who would have dared to say that this Government could have gone on without either Stanley in one House or Lord Grey in the other?
30591Who( to see him and hear him thus) would take him for the greatest orator and statesman of the day?
30591With respect to Lord John himself the question is, Can he continue in office and let the Bill pass without the clause?
30591burst out Chatham,''Order?
30591come, let''s have done our tea, that we may n''t miss him, eh?''
30591does he know enough of what is going on in the world?''
30591is it possible?''
30591rejoined the other King;''why do n''t you drink wine?
30591said he;''is he a fit man for the purpose?''
30591said the King,''Deputy- Governor of what?
30591what do you think?''
34713Can it be argued,he asked,"that any country shall be obliged to accept what a foreign State thinks proper to consider as happiness?
34713In what does the tolerance consist?
34713Is it in permitting the Dissenting children to be instructed in those schools in which the Church doctrines alone are taught? 34713 Is it sufficient to call a man a barbarian in order to discharge oneself of all obligations to treat him with common fairness and consideration?...
34713What use can the State make of this man?
34713What were the relations between the House of Commons and the constituencies? 34713 What,"he asked,"had of late years been the drift of their Irish legislation?
34713What{ 24} use can this man make of himself?
34713And are you not, then, laying the foundation of a system hostile to the real interests of freedom, and destructive of the peace of the world?...
34713And if these, why not others?
34713And what was that spirit?
34713And why?
34713Are we to release dangerous criminals because they refuse food?
34713Bentham asked,"How does it work?"
34713Brougham replied in the language of pure Liberalism:"Assuming that no practical grievance exists, is the stigma nothing?
34713Burke and Coleridge asked,"How has it grown?"
34713But they did nothing to solve what Mr. John Morley told them was the immediate problem of the hour,"How are you to govern Ireland?
34713But what does all this come to, gentlemen?
34713But what is the difference between these"real"rights of Burke and the"natural"rights of Paine?
34713But what other term is to be applied to this action, of which I am informed on the best possible authority?
34713But what was that unity worth, which was employed for the shameful purpose of destroying the local independence which it existed only to maintain?
34713But why not?
34713Can nothing cure these step- by- step Reformists of their insanity?
34713Cartwright and Paine asked,"How does it conform to reason?"
34713Could the House dictate to the constituencies whom they should elect?
34713Did the Colonies exist for the benefit of the Mother Country or for their own?
34713Does it not follow that if they could control their own circumstances they would cease to be wretched?
34713Had it also the moral right?
34713Had it not been, as far as they could, to assimilate the laws of that country to those of Britain?
34713Had or had not one section of the Anglo- Saxon race the right to compel another section?
34713Had the Irish Parliament the right to surrender its powers to a Parliament of the United Kingdom without receiving the approval of its own electors?
34713He asked,"How has it grown?"
34713How are these rights created and maintained, but by public opinion and current ideas of morality?
34713How can a Liberal man dictate to a woman how she shall exert herself in society?
34713How can we with any propriety speak of the rights of Robinson Crusoe before the arrival of Friday?
34713How is the State to know what conduces to the welfare of the community?
34713If Government taxes the raw material of his industry, is not his right to the fruits of it being impaired?
34713If all are corrupt, does it matter very much whether all or only a few have power?
34713If it could, did it not follow that members were neither representatives nor delegates, but an absolute oligarchy?"
34713If the domination of one class of men over another class of men had led to abuse, did not the domination of one sex over another also lead to abuse?
34713If we do not,"What are we to offer to Canada in the way of a material interest strong enough to make her foreign policy identical with ours?
34713Is it nothing even that the honourable baronet should say, as he has said this night,''We will allow you to do so and so''?
34713Is it nothing that a Dissenter, wherever he goes, is looked on and treated as an inferior person to a Churchman?...
34713Prior to that date juries had been confined in libel cases to answering two questions: was the document published?
34713Was England to remain passive while they were reduced once more into subjection?
34713Was a homogeneous society two thousand miles away to be governed by an English Government in a way of which it disapproved?
34713Was or was not a Dissenter to count for as much in the State as a Churchman?
34713What is it that gives the honourable baronet the title to use this language... but that the law encourages him to use it?
34713What is the State?
34713What is the community to do with him?
34713What is to be the remedy?
34713What is to be the result?
34713When the medical profession is opened, how can any other logically be kept closed?
34713Who are the community?
34713Why should it be presumed that a woman was naturally incapable of managing her own affairs?
34713Why should it be presumed that dependence and feebleness of mind were natural to women?
34713Why should it be presumed that it was natural that men should regulate even the private lives of women?
34713Why should we persist in maintaining the same system for women?
34713Why?
34713Will they call forth their thoughts, their feelings, their actions?
34713Will they lift them above the brutes?
34713Will they make man more manly?
34713Will they make them more moral beings?
34713Will they raise men and women in the scale of creation?
34713and what did its words mean?
34713as earnestly as"How does it work?"
34713{ 208} Were their affairs to be managed by Canadians or Englishmen?

36589The man, at the first, as commonly it fareth with men disturbed in their rest, demanded, somewhat roughly,''who was there?''
36589We have to ask ourselves,"Could a child of two years and a little over one month, understand and talk like that?"
36589What county hath this isle that can compare with thee?
36589Where are those orchards, woods, and gardens now?
36589Where is Winchester House, the grand palace of the Bishops of Winchester, that looked upon the river?
36589Where its neighbour, Rochester House?
36589Where the"Tabard,"the"King''s Head,"the"Catherine Wheel,"the"Boar''s Head,"the"Old Pick my Toe,"or the"Three Widows"?
36589Where, also, the"George,"which at the time of Waterloo kept forty pairs of post- horses?
36589Where, too, is Suffolk House, the princely residence of the Dukes of Suffolk?
36589Why?
36589Yet yov doe all By the Spirits call As yov pretend: bvt pray What Spirit is''t?
36589and where the"Red Lion"?
36589are they?"
36589he shouted to Erasmus,"Do these asses expect us to kiss the shoes of all good men that have ever lived?
36589how d''you make that out?"
36589replied the King,"whom shall men-- to say nothing of kings-- trust?
36589says Harry Bailly, the Host,"that''s all very well, you know, but how is it that this wonderful master of yours wears such a threadbare coat?"
36589what''s that, mister?"
36589you guess it, do you not?
39685Any other of the cottagers got any old chairs, or china?
39685Anything old inside?
39685Are we all taken in, mister?
39685But why not find a tenant?
39685Is it the dressmakers ye mean?
39685May I look round inside?
39685And do not the empty brackets over many an ancient tomb tell a tale?
39685Are the warriors''hearts therein, or the bones of the five bambinoes?
39685But how about the older part of the inhabitants?
39685Does not this open up a question worth consideration?
39685Had the good farmer flown in consequence, and sought an abode that had not become a literary landmark?
39685Had the lines existed then, would the poor queen have derived comfort when the news reached her of her son''s death on the battlefield?
39685How is it these appurtenances of domestic comfort have entirely died out like the now extinct warming- pan?
39685Is it yet too much to hope that pity may be taken upon what is undoubtedly one of the finest Elizabethan houses in England?
39685It is a novel experience to arrive there in the dusk and walk(?)
39685Sir Amias had the custody of Mary Queen of Scots during the latter part of her long imprisonment, and to him the"Good Queen"(?)
39685Strange that this county, so proud of the Lord Protector( for has it not recently set up a gorgeous statue at St. Ives to his memory?
39685The paint may be in excellent taste, and like it was originally; but when the original paint has gone, is it not best to leave the woodwork plain?
39685Therefore why not take some measures to tone down the staring stone or obtrusive red- brick before the masonry is constructed?
39685Truly the high box- pews are not loved by antiquarians, but is it not better to leave them than replace them with something modern and uncomfortable?
39685Was not Broadway dying a natural death when Jonathan, who invariably tells us what treasures we possess, stepped in and made it popular?
39685What have become of the helmets of the ancient lords of the manors?
39685it has vanished-- where?
40584Are we then to murmur?--to feel as if robbed?
40584But is the tide everything?
40584Nowhere do we see a better illustration than is supplied in Liverpool of the primitive Judean market- places,"Why stand ye here all the day idle?"
40584The first phrase heard in a Lancashire crowd is,"Where are you thrutching?"
36628And how shall they stand together twenty or thirty years, think ye, if the queen should live so long?
36628And if so, what is the protestant religion to us?
36628And if they can not be in a posture to defend and maintain him when they have him, how shall he be encouraged to venture himself among them?
36628And what a noise about who shall or shall not be king, the Lord knows when?
36628And why the contrary to this was not made appear, according to the promises which, they say, though falsely, were made by the late King William?
36628Are not any of these considerations enough to make any of us averse to the protestant succession?
36628Besides, are not your breaches come up to that height already as to let any impartial bystander see that popery must be the consequences?
36628But here comes an objection in our way, which, however weighty, we must endeavour to get over, and this is, what becomes of the abjuration?
36628Had we not much better be papists than traitors?
36628Had we not much better deny our God, our baptism, our religion, and our lives, than deny our lawful prince, our next male in a right line?
36628How will it come in?
36628If it should be asked how have these any such reference?
36628If the physicians prescribe a vomit for the cure of any particular distemper, will the patient complain of being made sick?
36628Is it agreeable to the true interest of the nation?
36628Is it not a strange thing we can not be quiet with the queen we have, but we must all fall into confusion and combustions about who shall come after?
36628Is this rational?
36628May not popery be very good in its kind?
36628Nay, one, two, three, or four times?
36628Nay, when even in their hearts they have all the while resolved to be for the pretender?
36628Now, what say the people, must we think of living twenty or thirty years in this wrangling condition we are now in?
36628Popery came in, as they feared, and all went to ruin; and what came of the protestant successor?
36628The first thing it seems to be made clear to the common people is, whether the pretender was the lawful son of King James, yea, or no?
36628The son of King James, or the son of a cinder- woman?
36628Well, well, and what hurt will this be to you?
36628Well, what followed, I pray?
36628What can be a more lively representation of our case now before us?
36628What if this popery, like the vomit made of poison, be the only physic that can cure you?
36628What is all this but telling us plainly that the whole nation is running into popery and the pretender?
36628What must become of trade, of religion, of society, of relation, of families, of people?
36628What should he resolve on?
36628What, then, is the signification to the people of Britain whether the person called the pretender be legitimate, or no?
36628Why should we think it strange, then, that protestants now in this age, and Church of England protestants too, should be for a popish pretender?
36628Why, pray folks, how old is the queen, and when is she to die?
36628You call such a man the pretender, but is he not the son of our king?
36628[_ Price 6d._] REASONS AGAINST THE SUCCESSION,& c. What strife is here among you all?

36628why, do all these people say we are perjured already?
36628would you bring over the family of Hanover to have them murdered?
40212But how?
40212For what do they receive so many thousands of the public money?
40212For what have we universities and colleges, and so many thousand priests who have to boast of collegiate education?
40212For what?
40212Have their institutions softened the savage ferocity of man?
40212Have they developed a clear system of principles, either moral, scientific, or philosophical?
40212Have you no priests in your Society?
40212I will pledge myself to sell it with the other, Is there not a Bishop amongst you that can again attempt to do what Watson has vainly attempted?
40212Is your answer-- yes?
40212Moses, Zoroaster, Jesus, and Mahomet, are names celebrated in history; but what are they celebrated for?
40212What is that chimerical faith in which you pretend to centre your future hopes, if you fear the result of your fellow mortal''s enquiry into it?
40212What is the religion that you profess, that you are so much alarmed at every attempt to investigate its merits?
40212Why do you not set them to write a volume of the same size to refute the arguments and assertions of Paine?
28980I suppose you to mean that if He could, I ought to be able to give you what you ask?
28980''Can a man of your age,''he asks,''have the accumulated capital of knowledge necessary to stand such a periodical expenditure?''
28980''Did you ever know your father do a thing because it was pleasant?''
28980''Gurney, what''s the difference between justification and sanctification?''
28980''How can we sow the seed and refuse to recognise the crop?''
28980''I said at last,''he proceeds,''"If Jesus Christ were here, could He say no more than you do?"
28980''Stephen major,''he once said to my brother,''if you do not take more pains, how can you ever expect to write good longs and shorts?
28980''Was not that,''says Fitzjames,''a truly British comment?''
28980''What difference can it make,''he asks,''whether millions of years ago our ancestors were semi- rational baboons?''
28980''Why are you,''asked one of his friends, who was a thorough partisan,''such a devil in politics?''
28980''You have done your work and got your fee, and what more do you want?''
28980''[ 154] This, therefore, leads to the ultimate question: What, in the utilitarian phrase, is the''sanction''of morality?
28980And even if there be none, why should you not live like a man, Enjoying whatever you have as much and as long as you can?
28980And here, too, in 1891 he published two little volumes of verse:''Lapsus Calami''and''Quo Musa Tendis?''
28980And what is the end of the law?
28980And why should we maintain morality?
28980Are we bound to treat semi- barbarous nations on the same terms as we consider to govern our relations with France or Germany?
28980Because Christianity is true and all other religions false?
28980Briefly, the utilitarian asks, What is the sanction of morality?
28980But if so, what becomes of the morality?
28980But if the facts are insufficient to a lawyer''s eye, what is to happen?
28980But is such morality satisfactory?
28980But what then?
28980But what was the message which could reach a hard- headed young''lawyer by nature''with a turn for Benthamism?
28980But what was to be said for the Church of England since the Reformation?
28980By what law?
28980Can it, for example, give sufficient reasons for self- sacrifice-- that is, neglect of my own happiness?
28980Can it, then, be indifferent in regard to religions?
28980Consider men as a multitude of independent units, and the problem occurs, How can they be bound into wholes?
28980Could he have been asked by Providence at any time, Where shall I place you?
28980Could he then lean to Rome?
28980Could the two sounds, separated by an interval, be one sound?
28980Did human memory run to the year 1190, when Richard I. set out on the third crusade, or to 1194, when he returned?
28980Do they not mean this or that, he would ask, which is quite different to what they had been made to mean?
28980Do we, then, disbelieve in our own creed, or are we engaged in a solemn mockery?
28980Does that imply that Scotland was then subject to force, and that now force has disappeared?
28980Have I any right to talk of streets running with blood?
28980He looked at the dark, grave man and wondered,''Is he now reading my character at a glance?''
28980He then reduced the sentence to nine months, saying,''Does that satisfy you?''
28980How are we to deal with that great inheritance bequeathed to us by the courage of heroes and the wisdom of statesmen?
28980How are we to know what is right and wrong, and what are our motives for approving and disapproving the good and the bad?
28980How does this apply to the case of sex?
28980How many actions even, which would be gladly remembered, are constantly forgotten?
28980How were they to be combined with his earlier prepossessions?
28980How, again, is a European to appreciate the value of an oath made upon a cow''s tail or a tiger''s skin?
28980How, then, was Newman to answer an inquirer?
28980However reluctant they may be, they will have to answer the question, Is this religion true or not?
28980I have often wondered over the problem, What constitutes the identity of a newspaper?
28980If I may remove one stone from the building, am I not at liberty to remove any stone which proves to be superfluous?
28980If you are not a man of taste, how can you ever hope to be of use in the world?''
28980If you do not write good longs and shorts, how can you ever be a man of taste?
28980If you help the Brahmos alone, what will you say to the''radical league,''which repudiates all religious belief?
28980Is he not undertaking too much?
28980Is it not more likely that, at a pinch, I might myself run in quite a different direction?
28980Is it possible_ ridentem dicere verum_?
28980Is it, then, a treatise upon Greek or Latin grammar, or on the grammatical construction of classical authors?
28980Is the end good, and are the means adequate and not excessively costly?
28980Is the mob triumphant in Paris?
28980Is there,''he asks,''anything illogical or inconsistent in this view?''
28980Lord Lytton, some time after this, wrote to him about his book, and he replies to the question,''What is a good man?''
28980Might not his ambition have to struggle with similar obstacles at the bar or in the pulpit?
28980Now the oppressed had the scourge in their own hands; how would they apply it?
28980One point may just be mentioned: If a man steals a cow, and sells it to an innocent purchaser, who is to suffer the loss when the theft is discovered?
28980Or are we morally entitled to take into account the fact that they are semi- barbarous?
28980Or to the Romanising party in the Church?
28980Shall we endeavour to govern on native principles and by native agency?
28980Sometimes they descended to mere commonplaces-- Is a little knowledge a dangerous thing?
28980That, I understand, is like asking a lawyer, What is a_ Habeas Corpus_?
28980The one question is what is to be the supreme authority?
28980The only question is which?
28980The question for the lawyer is, did the prisoner mean to kill?--not, what were his motives for killing?
28980The''Quo Musa Tendis?''
28980Then the question occurs: Is this a logical argument, or an appeal from argument to feeling?
28980To maintain the law?
28980To parody a famous phrase of Hume''s, Cambridge virtually said to its pupils,''Is this a treatise upon geometry or algebra?
28980Was there, he asked, any real hardship in that?
28980We had enforced peace between rival sects; allowed conversion; set up schools teaching sciences inconsistent with Hindoo( and with Christian?)
28980Were they all hypocritical?
28980What are to be the relations between democracy and intellectual culture?
28980What did you mean, it would be asked, by your former profession that you would enforce religious equality?
28980What does it matter?
28980What is the corresponding element in the moral law?
28980What is the good of government in general?
28980What must be the principle of cohesion?
28980What must we do?
28980What of the acts passed to secure the immunity of all converts from legal penalties?
28980What, then, are the cases?
28980What, then, is morality?
28980What, then, is the value of an_ Ã   priori_ argument that it must exist?
28980When they ask to have their marriages legalised, will you reply,''You are a small body, and therefore we will do you an injustice''?
28980Which of those was to be the school of the future, and which represented the true utilitarian tradition?
28980Why could not the examiners?
28980Why is not a similar liberty to be granted to others who have abandoned their religion?
28980Why not in religious matters?
28980Why not?
28980Why should he not show a similar trust in Providence?
28980Why should not a''moral text- book''for Indian schools be issued in the Queen''s name?
28980Why should we neglect any source from which light may be obtained?
28980Would they not be far more humiliating for English legislation?
28980Would they not use the same machinery in order to crush the rich and the exalted, and take in the next place to crushing each other?
28980[ 139] Has, then, a man who believes in God and a future life a moral right to deter others from attacking those doctrines by showing disapproval?
28980but What is meant by the editorial''We''?
28057About how much time did you give to it?
28057If_ he_ can say that, what must_ I_ be not to echo it? 28057 What is the reason,"Lamb writes to Wordsworth in 1810,"we have no good epitaphs after all?"
28057When?
28057Why, Fanny, what are you about, and where are you? 28057 A gentleman present next said''who would pay £12 to be a Life Member of a bankrupt Club?'' 28057 And can it be of any use to expend money in this sort of way upon poor creatures that have not half a bellyful of food? 28057 Are blackcock extinct in Surrey? 28057 As much frightened as you were before?
28057But did Aubrey ever see the full vision?
28057But how to go on?
28057But if he had grown to greater stature?
28057But is the result attained the result aimed at?
28057But might I not just look round, having come a long way to see the church?
28057But shall I live in hope?
28057But the old, the oldest Surrey side?
28057But the yew of the Surrey churchyard-- is there no better way of honouring a tree than the Crowhurst way?
28057But was it always, then, the greatest tree for miles round?
28057But what could be better than the luxury of it all?
28057But what does that mean?
28057Can anybody do it to- day?
28057Carshalton is hardly a village, but is it less pretty than it used to be?
28057Could none of the foresters of the weald have helped a great tree better in its old age?
28057Could there be a deeper contrast?
28057Did he decide on the particular direction in which he should throw a leg?
28057Did he, or did the sculptor suggest the plump cherubs which stand on each side, rolling stony tears from upturned eyes?
28057Eight hundred years ago, may there not have stood another tree near where it stands to- day, as large or even larger?
28057Giggs Hill cricket has not always been of the most scientific kind, but who shall say it was less enjoyed for that?
28057Had the sculptor no other sizes in cherubs?
28057Has it a single dominating feature, or is its air of distinction merely compact of the grace and old- worldliness of its shops and houses?
28057Has it ever been noticed that the Alfold, Dunsfold, and Hambledon yews stand almost in a mathematically straight line?
28057Has the crowd on the hill changed much since the forties?
28057He managed Queen Elizabeth admirably, and"by justifiable sacred insinuations, such as St. Paul to Agrippa--''Agrippa, believest thou?

28057If the tower might stand, why not the nave?
28057Is it not possible that Crowhurst Place may be rescued as Tangley Manor was?
28057Is it the sense of change from roaring streets to quiet lawns, noble trees, spaces and scents of grass and flowers?
28057Is that the secret?
28057Is the monument, after all so appalling?
28057It has a strong taste of iron; would that be good for the eyes?
28057It was a mile or so from Barnes Bridge, in a field near Barn Elms( but who could guess where?)
28057May he not be on the wrong road?
28057May it not have been the seven- streamed Wey by Pyrford which gave him his stanzas for_ The Bait_, his parody of Marlowe?
28057May it not have led through Albury Park past the south porch of the ruined church, and so come in a natural way to Shere church by the old inn?
28057Might not an English gentleman keep armour in his country house if he pleased to do so?
28057Might not one who wished to write about the church enter while she was cleaning the reredos?

39426What horrid crime have I committed, or what brand of cowardice lies upon me and my men that we are not thought worthy of a subsistence? 39426 What is the matter if a man be drunk, so, when he comes to fight, he do his work?
39426What matters this or that reason?
39426What should His Excellency the Lord General Cromwell expect from the Cardinal but a parcel of fair promises?
39426What will the Prince say?

34684Can we imagine a pleasure party of any kind without the presence of women?
34684Did he go to war with America?
34684Do n''t you know that soap is indispensable to an Englishman or an American; and that only a Frenchman can do without it?"

34684Enemies?
34684Even down to the manner of holding a fork or an umbrella, the two nations seem to be saying to each other:"You do it that way?

34684I must lean my head on your shoulder; you do n''t mind, do you?"
34684If, from our childhood, woman were the companion of our daily games and walks, should we not look upon her with different eyes?
34684Is a country less dear to her sons because of her prejudices?
34684Is it not always clothed in mystery?
34684Is it not strange that music- hall jingoism and_ chauvinisme_ should not only be expressed in the same manner, but by the very same words?
34684Is it possible that we Frenchmen, the most home- abiding men in the world, can be attacked by this ridiculous mania for change?
34684Is not the object of man''s worship always something unknown, extraordinary, ideal?
34684Jacques Bonhomme scarcely knew what a Plebiscite was; but he went to see his parish priest, who said to him:"Are you married, Jacques?"
34684Now, could Mr. George Augustus Sala, with his knowledge of London dairy produce, pay my book a more witty and graceful compliment?
34684Poor Marquis de Boissy, what would you have said, if you had lived long enough to receive invitations to_ five o''clocquer_?
34684The men who have suffered for country, religion, science, liberty; are these Carlyle''s fools?
34684The virtuous Germans that vanquished us, were they, after all, so clever at geography and French?
34684Then why are we not content with France as she is?
34684Then, seeing the table garnished with good things, he cries:"My friends, why must we eat?
34684Try how many followers you will get for a standard of revolt raised with the cry:"The people are being syringed?"
34684Was it apologies he wanted?
34684What can it possibly be made of, this nauseating decoction?
34684What happened?
34684What has become of all the fine promises of the ministry?"
34684What meant those jeremiads?
34684What shall I do?
34684What was I to do?
34684What will the French schoolboys do?
34684When he marries, woman is not exactly an enigma to him; but do you think he is any the worse husband for that?
34684When shall we cease to become inventors and be men of business?
34684When shall we, in France, cease to strive after the extraordinary and the universal?
34684When you left she was still alive?
34684Where is the nation that can boast such another?
34684Who among us has not admired and blessed them?
34684Who does not drag him in the mud?
34684Who does not take upon himself to judge him without appeal?
34684Why are we obliged to make use of this word to designate a child of the feminine sex?
34684Why be always wanting to change her?
34684Why is Roman Catholicism perfectly powerless in England, politically speaking?
34684Why not_ English Philosophy_?
34684Will you ever forget the bloodcurdling ghost stories that you listened to so breathlessly in the twilight, as you roasted chestnuts in the embers?
34684Will you have a few rather diverting illustrations, taken right and left?
34684Would_ Monsieur_ like to see my English stock?"
34684Yet what happened?
34684You want to carry a red flag about the streets?
34684_ DÃ © jeuner_ is, therefore, irrational; but is this any excuse for making ourselves grotesque?
34684_ Nous lunchons!_ What a barbarous mouthful, is it not?

11665Who is able to abide his frost?"
11665Who said this?
11665Who, in a word, are our best talkers?
11665Why do I never meet him at the club or in society?
11665Why is my namesake picked out for knighthood, while I remain hidden in my native obscurity?
11665Why is my rival made a C.B., while I"go forth Companionless"to meet the chances and the vexations of another year?
11665Will any one stake his literary reputation on the assertion that these lines are not really Tennyson''s?
11665Will any one tell me that the new version is as good as the old one in this passage?"
11665Would he attempt it again if I contradicted him in conversation, or confuted him in argument, or capped his best story with a better?
11665Would he talk as pleasantly as he wrote?
11665[ 21] Some of the trumpeters, with a laudable intention to be civil, cried,"Is it possible that he can be so old?"
11665and is she honest, good- tempered, sober, willing, and cleanly?
11665and who has not seen him-- velvet curtains, dining- table, scroll, and all-- on the most conspicuous wall of the Royal Academy?

11665milady Blessington, restez- vous longtemps à Paris?"
11665till all his friends, when they saw him from afar, used to exclaim,"Why was Tompkins created?
11665très bien: la raison est bonne en effet, mais au moins avez- vous dit à la duchesse de Sutherland la raison de votre changement de place?"

38611''Can you see nothing?'' 38611 ''Hast thou not beckoned me hither, and am I not come?''
38611''Is it he?'' 38611 ''It is,''replied Lady Rookwood;''I have followed him hither, and I will follow him whithersoever he leads me, were it to----''"''What doth he now?''
38611''No matter who or what I am,''returned Alan;''I ask you what you behold?'' 38611 ''Ow does the vibration agree w''the old six yer''ad last night?"
38611''The figure points to that sarcophagus,''returned Lady Rookwood--''can you raise up the lid?'' 38611 ''What does it contain?''
38611''What doth Lady Rookwood in the abode of the dead?'' 38611 ''Where?''
38611''You knew Sir Piers Rookwood?'' 38611 Ai n''t this bloomin''fun, sir?"
38611But I mean, do n''t they whiff?

38611What if Luke should_ not_ return?
38611What if he were slain, as it might chance, in the enterprise?
38611What indeed?
38611What would Whitgift himself do?
38611What, however, has become of the series so liberally provided in 1743 by the"inhabitants of Croydon"?
38611Where is he who can, offhand, describe the first milestone on the Brighton Road, and tell where it stands?
38611Where, indeed, was it not in those times?

38611Who first broke the land of Gatton to the plough?

4158And to that; to have it said, what hath been done by our late fleetes?
4141Do you not think that he hath a great beauty to his wife? 4141 My Lord replied thus:Sir John, what do you think of your neighbour''s wife?"
4141Who should we see come upon the stage but Gosnell, my wife''s maid?
4141and 9d., which was the greatest husbandry to the King?
4141why do you kiss the gentlewoman so?"
4151Why, what, pox,says Sir Charles Sydly,"would he have him have more, or what is there more to be had of a woman than the possessing her?"
4159But, damn me,said Sir Philip,"will you so and so?"
4125--standing at the door, took him by the arm, and cried,"Thou man, will thy beast carry thee no longer?
4125Coming in the morning to my office, I met with Mr. Fage and took him to the Swan?
4125His text was,"And is there any evil in the city and the Lord hath not done it?"
4125Must he not keep a Dog?
4125The next morning, on coming to unlock the door, and espying her face, he cried out,''In the name of God, Joan, what makes you here?
4125Where is my Lord Lambert?''
4161How he should go off then?
4163''How could the Duke of York make my mother a Papist?'' 15043 If black and white blend, soften, and unite A thousand ways, are there no black and white?"
15043O Tite, si quid ego adjuvero curamve levasso, Quæ nunc te coquit, et versat sub pectore fixa, Ecquid erit pretii?
15043[ 88] Now to what can this ignorance be owing? 15043 [ 90] Was ever such a method of reasoning heard of?
15043Afterwards, who can blame them, if they do not satisfy the public desires?
15043And after all, how are the partisans of proportional beauty agreed amongst themselves about the proportions of the human body?
15043And in what manner did this philosopher comfort him for the loss of such a man, and heal his conscience, flagrant with the smart of such a crime?
15043And yet need I suggest to your lordship, that those who find the means, and those who arrive at the end, are not at all the same persons?
15043Are they among the party of those( no small body) who adhere to the system of 1766?
15043Are they in the present administration?
15043Are they the persons who acted with his great friend, since the change in 1762, to his removal in 1765?
15043Are we judges of our own property?
15043But I demand of this politician, how such arts came to be necessary?
15043But a worse and more perplexing difficulty arises, how to be defended against the governors?
15043But are these proportions exactly the same in all handsome men?
15043But has it in reality answered this purpose?
15043But how and in what proportion?
15043But how did the virtuous and able men of our author labor for this great end?
15043But how does that turn out?
15043But is this so in fact?
15043But shall we therefore say, that the removal of pain or its diminution is always simply painful?
15043But what are the principles of this extraordinary composition?
15043But what did his council?
15043But what is the real fact?
15043But what relation has the calf of the leg to the neck; or either of these parts to the wrist?
15043But where are his_ men_ of virtue and ability to be found?
15043But why take credit for so extremely reduced a deficiency at all?
15043But will no other succeed to it?
15043But_ cui bono_ all this detail of our debt?
15043Can not I say, as truly at least, of human laws, that where mystery begins, justice ends?
15043Can we conceive a more discouraging post of duty than this?
15043Can we ever flatter ourselves that we shall wage a more successful war?
15043Did the export trade revive by these regulations in 1765, during which year they continued in their full force?
15043Do not the laws absolutely confine the colonies to buy from us, whether foreign nations sell cheaper or not?
15043Do they imagine they shall increase our piety, and our reliance on God, by exploding his providence, and insisting that he is neither just nor good?
15043Do they pretend to exalt the mind of man, by proving him no better than a beast?
15043Do we not read the authentic histories of scenes of this nature with as much pleasure as romances or poems, where the incidents are fictitious?
15043Does he call the price of wheat at this day, between 32 and 40 shillings per quarter in London dear?
15043Does he not know that wine, brandy, soap, candles, leather, saltpetre, gunpowder, are taxed in France?
15043Does the author mean to make our kings as immortal in their personal as in their politic character?
15043Does the author then seriously mean to propose in Parliament a land- tax, or any tax for 100,000_l._ a year upon Ireland?
15043For has not this leviathan of civil power overflowed the earth with a deluge of blood, as if he were made to disport and play therein?
15043For instance, what does he mean by talking of an adherence to the old navigation laws?
15043For what else do we learn from this note?
15043For what purpose, in any cause, shall we hereafter contend with France?
15043For why should he be shocked at a shipwreck on the coast of Bohemia, who does not know but that Bohemia may be an island in the Atlantic ocean?
15043Has he well considered what an immense operation any change in our constitution is?
15043Has the author given a single light towards any material reduction of it?
15043Have we taxes of such weight, or anything at all of the compulsion, in the article of_ salt_?
15043Having undertaken the commonwealth, what remained for them to do?
15043Here is a very noble picture; and in what does this poetical picture consist?
15043How can our author have the heart to describe this as any sort of parallel to our situation?
15043How can these provinces be represented at Westminster?
15043How does the slender stalk of the rose agree with the bulky head under which it bends?
15043How much happier are they?
15043If this system can not be rigorously adhered to in practice,( and what system can be so?)
15043If you would inspire this compatriot of ours with pity or regard for one of these, would you not hide that distinction?
15043In a lawsuit the question is, who has a right to a certain house or farm?
15043In these scandalous lives, was there anything more scandalous than the mode of punishing_ one culpable individual_?
15043Is government strengthened?
15043Is he more rich, or more splendid, or more powerful, or more at his ease, by so many labors and contrivances?
15043Is it that this strength will be subservient to you, to your ease, to your pleasure, to your interest in any sense?
15043Is not the reader a little astonished at the proposal of an American representation from that quarter?
15043Is not the same reason available in theology and in politics?
15043Is this_ export_ the true idea of the Newfoundland trade in the light of a beneficial branch of commerce?
15043Look at a man, or any other animal of prodigious strength, and what is your idea before reflection?
15043Looking now upon the effects of some of those fancies, may we not with equal reason call it likewise the Newgate and the Bridewell of the universe?
15043On the other hand, when we recover our health, when we escape an imminent danger, is it with joy that we are affected?
15043On this idea how stands the account?
15043On what other idea are all our prohibitions, regulations, guards, penalties, and forfeitures, framed?
15043Or has the cruelty of that series of sanguine tyrants, the Cæsars, ever presented such a piece of flagrant and extensive wickedness?
15043Or suppose the spectator placed where he may take a direct view of such a building, what will be the consequence?
15043The delay of the law is, your lordship will tell me, a trite topic, and which of its abuses have not been too severely felt not to be complained of?
15043The swan, confessedly a beautiful bird, has a neck longer than the rest of his body, and but a very short tail: is this a beautiful proportion?
15043Then what does he get by this method on the side of acquiescence?
15043Then what has the crown or the king profited by all this fine- wrought scheme?
15043Then what tax is it he will impose?
15043This is the only proof of the value of revenues; what would an interested man rate them at?
15043Well, and what then?
15043Were over the honors and emoluments of the state more lavishly squandered upon persons scandalous in their lives than during that period?
15043What advantage do we derive from such writings?
15043What did our ministers?
15043What do I gain by this, but the dissatisfaction to find that I had been imposed upon?
15043What do all these fine observations signify?
15043What does he therefore infer from it, favorable to the enforcement of that law?
15043What does he think of re- election?
15043What does he think of the commerce of the city of Glasgow, and of the manufactures of Paisley and all the adjacent country?
15043What has the author said on the reduction of any head of this deficiency upon the land- tax?
15043What idea do you derive from so excellent a picture?
15043What idea of use is it that flowers excite, the most beautiful part of the vegetable world?
15043What if all he says of the state of this balance were true?
15043What is it that can satisfy the furious and perturbed mind of this man?
15043What light do we borrow from these boasted proportions, when we study ornamental design?
15043What merchants?
15043What other reason can he have for suggesting, that we are not happy enough to enjoy a sufficient number of voters in England?
15043What proportion do we discover between the stalks and the leaves of flowers, or between the leaves and the pistils?
15043What shall I do?
15043What sort of a protection is this of the general right, that is maintained by infringing the rights of particulars?
15043What sort of justice is this, which is enforced by breaches of its own laws?
15043What strength of that kind did they acquire?
15043When Sully came to those of France, in what order was any part of the financial system?
15043Who ever doubted the truth, or the insignificance, of these propositions?
15043Who ever said we_ ought_ to love a fine woman, or even any of these beautiful animals which please us?
15043Why, what signifies a dispute about trifles?
15043Will the author pledge himself, previously to his proposal of such a tax, to carry this enlargement of the Irish trade?
15043Will this author say, that, in a war with Spain, such an assistance would not be of absolute necessity?
15043Will you follow truth but to a certain point?
15043Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate?
15043[ 66] that they pay in France the_ Taille_, an arbitrary imposition on presumed property?
15043_ Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?_ In vain they change from a single person to a few.
15043_ Who hath loosed_( says he)_ the bands of the wild ass?
15043and after all, what reflection is this on the natural good taste of the person here supposed?
15043and that in France a heavy_ capitation- tax_ is also paid, from the highest to the very poorest sort of people?
15043but will any one therefore call the elephant, the wolf, and the lion, beautiful animals?
15043canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow?
15043did not the same objections always lie to custom- house entries?
15043do they defalcate more from the entries of 1766 than from those of 1754?
15043do we pay any_ taillage_, any_ faculty- tax_, any_ industry- tax?_ do we pay any_ capitation- tax_ whatsoever?
15043do we pay any_ taillage_, any_ faculty- tax_, any_ industry- tax?_ do we pay any_ capitation- tax_ whatsoever?
15043does he choose to flatter his readers that no such will ever return?
15043how many discussions, parties, and passions, it will necessarily excite; and when you open it to inquiry in one part, where the inquiry will stop?
15043if that too should fail us, what will become of this poor undone nation?
15043is it from the course of exchange that it is unknown, which all the world knows to be greatly and perpetually against the colonies?
15043is it from the doubtful nature of the trade we carry on with the colonies?
15043is the American member the only one who is not to take a place, or the only one to be exempted from the ceremony of re- election?
15043must it not go to the general service of the year, in some way or other, let the finances be in whose hands they will?
15043or affirm that the cessation or the lessening of pleasure is always attended itself with a pleasure?
15043or are the American representatives to be perpetual, and to feel neither demises of the crown, nor dissolutions of Parliament?
15043or are they at all the proportions found in beautiful women?
15043or does he in good earnest declare, that let the reason, or necessity, be what they will, he is resolved not to provide for such services?
15043or does he show how they may be induced to submit to it quietly?
15043or is the fit of the colic a pleasure or a pain just as we are pleased to consider it?
15043or what system was there at all?
15043or whilst he bountifully adds to their life, will he take from them their prerogative of dissolving Parliaments, in favor of the American union?
15043that a great part of their foreign balance is and must be remitted to London?
15043that a tax is laid in fact and name, on the same arbitrary standard, upon the acquisitions of their_ industry_?
15043that it would not be the most gross of all follies to refuse it?
15043those which the law had prescribed?
15043to piece their conduct upon the broken chain of former measures?
15043to take off a revenue so necessary to our being, before anything whatsoever was acquired in the place of it?
15043were the navigation laws made, that this balance should be unknown?
15043what do they prove?
15043what does the author say?
15043will he make a covenant with thee?
15043will it not be the case under any administration?
15043wilt thou take him for a servant forever?
15043wilt thou trust him because his strength is great?--Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook?
4168The Duke of Albemarle answered the king( August 14th?
4174And the Duke of York said further,"What said Marshal Turenne, when some in vanity said that the enemies were afraid, for they entrenched themselves?
4169And what was that, but that our dirty Besse( meaning his Duchesse) should come to be Duchesse of Albemarle?
4165But then I cried, what is become of my lobsters?
4165should he not fight them?
4172Is not this a high reason?
41783And how is the ground all caved in about the castle?
4167But why,say they,"would you say that without our leave, it being not true?"
4167But the first he can not do, and the other as little, or says,"when we can get any, or what shall we do for it?"
4167what can I do?
4175says the Duchess,"what should he go for, if he were well, for there are no ships for him to command?
39026And havna ye a letter for us?
39026And it''s a good house my sister keeps whatever,she said; and then she wanted to know,"Had the wee laddie, Donald, ferried us over?
39026And what''s yon bonny glen, my laddie?
39026And will you accept a glass from me?
39026And will you accept a glass from me?
39026But why not let us discover unknown Holland?
39026Can you go up by the hill?
39026Canna ye stand on your head?
39026How do you get there?
39026Is n''t it bonny country?
39026They are all landlords in the House of Commons: what will they do for us?
39026What station?
39026Where is the railway- station?
39026Which is better?
39026Which is shorter?
39026Why canna ye put salt on their tails?
39026Woo''s''e?
39026--shaking his fist at them--"can''t any of you favor me with a shillin''?
39026And then to Iona?"
39026And then what does he do?
39026And we had come from Salen, and were we going to Bunessan?
39026And what do you think he answered?
39026And what was his answer?
39026And what were the Dhu Harteach men saying now?
39026And with those who stayed at home, how fared it?
39026At what hotel did you stay in Oban?
39026But had we ever heard of Captain Shonstone, the hairbor- maister?
39026But what is to be hoped for from Parliament?
39026But what will grow there now?
39026But who knows the injustice that has been done in Scotland in order to lay waste broad tracts of good ground?
39026But who would exchange them for the well- polished granite obelisks of the modern stone- cutter which rise at their side?
39026Did you come by Loch Maree?
39026Free- trade is good for the bulk of the people, and what would protection do for the farmer?
39026Here we were, safe in Iona, he said; why should we brave the dangers of the wild coast?
39026How long have you been in Skye?
39026If there had not been injustice before, is it probable that there would now be such wholesale reductions and cancellings?
39026If they have food to eat, why complain of its quality?
39026If they were happy, however, if moors and hills were green with their crops, would it still seem so dismal?
39026Is Tartarin''s_ Chasse de Casquettes_ really so much funnier than what is called sport in England?
39026Is this your first visit?
39026It is their land; why should they not do with it as they think best?
39026Not a bad beginning, is it?
39026Pennell?"
39026Some people said the country needed protection;"but, sir, what have we got to protect?"
39026There were many hard things in this world, but grass was soft; why, then, should I choose the hard things?
39026To a beggar by the way- side they gave witticisms with their pennies:"Canna ye sing a Gaelic song?"
39026Was the gentleman we spoke of a farmer?
39026What did it profit the crofters that Macleod became for their sake a bankrupt?
39026Who will call them lazy or indifferent who has considered what the life of the Islander has been for generations?
39026You do n''t want''em, gen''lemen?
39026You''ll have one?
40681''Do n''t you remember?''
40681''What,''I asked,''did the Cabinet at home say?''
40681But who can tell whether this is not a pretence and a deceit, and whether he may not all the time have a secret understanding with the''Times''?
40681Où commence- t- elle?
40681Raglan said,''But you forget the French: would you have us abandon them to their fate?''
40681The Emperor knows this, and knows what is thought of his ministers, but he says''What am I to do?
40681The Government, he said, would not give way, and he was himself opposed to their doing so; but what was to be done?
40681The Queen talked to Clarendon of the publication in the''Times''with much indignation, and said,''Whom am I to trust?
40681What business had he to make such a mistake?
40681Who would ever have thought that tidings of peace would produce a general sentiment of disappointment and dissatisfaction in this nation?
40681Who would have thought a few weeks ago that the Queen''s Speech would announce the preliminaries of peace?
40681Will his fortune be more prosperous than that of the other Royal and Imperial heirs to the throne whom similar salvoes have proclaimed?
40681and should you be very much surprised if a year or two hence you should see us fighting against you again?''
40681and where can I find better men who will enter my service?''
40681où finit- elle?
40681à quels signes visibles se distingue- t- elle des autres éléments de la société?
4153Why, what, pox,says Sir Charles Sydly,"would he have him have more, or what is there more to be had of a woman than the possessing her?"
4153He in distracted manner answered me--"Why, whither should I go?
4153So to the office, where a great conflict with Wood and Castle about their New England masts?
4155But strange to see how they held up their hands crying,"What shall we do?"
4155How have you done all this week?"
4155Says my Lord Treasurer,"Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys?
4155This is true, you say; but what would you have me to do?
4155Why do our prizes come to nothing, that yielded so much heretofore?"
4155Why will not people lend their money?
4155Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver?
39104How could this be?
39104Indeed,rejoined the Queen,"have any of the staff officers of my Life Guards got the consumption?
39104What,asks the Colonel,"_ is_ a radical?
39104Where was Arthur, Duke of Wellington, when those words were uttered? 39104 And how has the benefactor of a great and powerful nation been treated by the British Government? 39104 And must Ireland draw the sword, or submit? 39104 And shall we be told, as a requital, that we are estranged from the noble country for whose salvation our life- blood was poured out?
39104And what did England gain by her armies and fleets, her intrigues in foreign cabinets and subsidies of men and money?
39104And what is England''s remedial process for this disease in one of her members?
39104Are you really prepared to determine, but not to hear, the mighty cause upon which a nation''s hopes and fears hang?

2647When shall you be in London?
2647Where have you put him?"
2647Who calls Macaulay?
2647Who ever composed with greater spirit and elegance because he could define an oxymoron or an aposiopesis?
2647Who ever reasoned better for having been taught the difference between a syllogism and an enthymeme?
2647Who hath not dreamed that even the skylark''s throat Hails that sweet morning with a gentler note?
2647Who have raised Leeds into the situation to return members to Parliament?
2647Who shall say?
2647Who would compare the fame of Charles Townshend to that of Hume, that of Lord North to that of Gibbon, that of Lord Chatham to that of Johnson?
2647Whom do you think?
2647Whom have I on earth but thee?
2647Why begin to build without counting the cost of finishing?
2647Why can not P-- be apprenticed to some hatter or tailor?
2647Why did not Price speak?
2647Why did they not think of all this earlier?
2647Why do you not send me longer letters?
2647Why not keep a journal, and minute down in it all that you see and hear?
2647Why put their hand to the plough, and look back?
2647Why raise the public appetite, and then baulk it?
2647Why was it that, when neighbouring capitals were perishing in the flames, our own was illuminated only for triumphs?
2647Why, Sir, if he was not the Beast, who was?"
2647Will our merchants consent to have the trade with China, which has just been offered to them, snatched away?
2647Will the negroes, after receiving the Resolutions of the House of Commons promising them liberty, submit to the cart- whip?
2647Would they have us wait till the whole tragicomedy of 1827 has been acted over again?
2647Would they have us wait, merely that we may show to all the world how little we have profited by our own recent experience?
2647Would they have us wait, that we may once again hit the exact point where we can neither refuse with authority, nor concede with grace?
2647Would you think it?
2647Yesterday, as he was sitting in the Athenaeum, a gentleman called out:''Waiter, is there a copy of the Pilgrim''s Progress in the library?''
2647and what do you think of"Laurie Todd"?
2647for Canterbury; and Rich, the author of"What will the Lords do?"
2647said young Hopeful,"are you going yet?"
4188''How long,''quoth Sir Anthonie,''hast thou kept this mill?''
4188Ever have done his maister better service than to hang for him?
2439Am I not worthy to be believed? 2439 And if he were to go away?"
2439But how,said he,"can a Parliament be free when an enemy is in the kingdom, and can return near a hundred votes?"
2439But where,said he,"is the paper that you were to bring me?"
2439Do you call that nothing?
2439Do you find the defendants, or any of them, guilty of the misdemeanour whereof they are impeached, or not guilty?
2439Do you not know that I am above the law?
2439Do you think,said Powis,"that you are at liberty to ask our witnesses any impertinent question that comes into your heads?"
2439Est- il- possible?
2439Have I deserved this?
2439I hope that your Grace will not do so ill a thing as to deny your own hand? 2439 Is it possible?"
2439Is this your Church of England loyalty? 2439 Ought it not,"said Halifax,"to be conveyed by one of your Highness''s officers?"
2439Sir,said Middleton,"have not you a troop of horse in His Majesty''s service?"
2439Stand,cried Campbell:"for whom are you?"
2439What have I done?
2439What is it that you want?
2439What is that to the purpose?
2439Who is this man? 2439 Whom,"said William,"shall we send with it?"
2439Why,said judge Holloway to the Attorney,"when you had such evidence, did you not produce it at first, without all this waste of time?"
2439Will you deliver up the key of your lodgings?
2439Will you submit, said the Bishop,"to our visitation?"
2439Would you nickname His Majesty?
2439A bystander cried out,"Do you know who blessed you?"
2439A nobleman named Misopapas says,--"can you guess, my Lord, How dreadful guilt and fear has represented Your army in the court?
2439All over the county the peasants chanted a ballad of which the burden is still remembered:"And shall Trelawney die, and shall Trelawney die?
2439And again"They talk of his hectoring and proud carriage; what could be more humble than for a man in his great post to cry and sob?"
2439And how can your Majesty place any dependence on the answer of a culprit whose life is at stake?
2439And how long was the anomalous government planned by the genius of Sancroft to last?
2439And if he had, what was that to the Prince or to the States?
2439And what had become of the party which had, during seven and forty years, been the bulwark of monarchy?
2439And what hope would there be for Holland, drained of her troops and abandoned by her Stadtholder?
2439And when the ill tidings came from Warminster, he again ejaculated,"Est- il- possible?"
2439And who would undertake to draw the line between extreme cases and ordinary cases?
2439And yet, when he set up his standard, what eminent Whig had joined it?
2439But could the navy, could the army, be trusted?
2439But could the resistance of Englishmen to such a prince as James be properly called rebellion?
2439But he might perhaps be excused if he asked, What was the constitution to him?
2439But how was this delivery to be proved?
2439But if, as the Tories themselves now seemed to confess, that theory was unsound, why treat with the King?
2439But was the paper thus published a false, malicious, and seditious libel?
2439But what guarantee was there for the sincerity of the Court?
2439But where could the King henceforth expect to find those sentiments in which consists the strength of states and of armies?
2439But who could be trusted to manage the escape?
2439But, had he consented, what guarantee could he give that he would adhere to his bargain?
2439But, tyrannical and malignant as the mandate was, would the Anglican priesthood refuse to obey?
2439Could Anne or Sancroft possibly have foreseen that the Queen''s calculations would turn out to be erroneous by a whole month?
2439Could he yield to subjects whom he had menaced with raised voice and furious gestures?
2439Could it then be doubted that, if the Churchmen would even now comply with his wishes, he would willingly sacrifice the Puritans?
2439Could people be blamed for submitting to the invader when they saw their sovereign run away at the head of his army?
2439Did ever a good Churchman question the dispensing power before?
2439Did the whole duty of a good subject consist in using the word King?
2439For what satisfactory guarantee could he give?
2439Had he been acting against light and against the convictions of his conscience then?
2439Had he not broken down every bridge by which he could, in case of a disaster, effect his retreat?
2439Had he not given hostages to the royal cause?
2439Had he not given the last proof of fidelity by renouncing his religion, and publicly joining a Church which the nation detested?
2439Have not some of you preached for it and written for it?
2439His first words were,"Well, and what do our friends at home say now?"
2439How should you like that, gentlemen?"
2439How then could the Princess of Orange be his heir?
2439How was he to give to Caesar all that was Caesar''s, and yet to withhold from God no part of what was God''s?
2439If any part of the royal forces resolutely withstood the invaders, would not that part soon have on its side the patriotic sympathy of millions?
2439If any suitor ventured to ask any favour directly from the King, the answer was,"Have you spoken to my Lord President?"
2439If he should resume his regal office, could they, on their principles, refuse to pay him obedience?
2439If neither law nor honour could bind him, could he safely be permitted to return?
2439Is my word not to be taken?"
2439It was his habit, when any news was told him, to exclaim in French,"possible?"
2439Or had he rescued her from one enemy only that she might be exposed to another?
2439Or was he uttering a deliberate falsehood now?
2439Or was it a disqualification that he was unalterably attached to the Church of England?
2439Sharp?"
2439Solicitor?"
2439That beloved Church, too, for whose sake he had, after a painful struggle, broken through his allegiance to the throne, was she really in safety?
2439To pass a resolution acknowledging him as King was therefore an act of election; and how could there be an election without a vacancy?
2439To trust him would thenceforth be impossible; and, if his people could not trust him, what member of his Church could they trust?
2439Was ever King so used?
2439Was he a child, or an idiot, that others must think for him?
2439Was he a petty prince, a Cardinal Furstemburg, who must fall if not upheld by a powerful patron?
2439Was he to be degraded in the estimation of all Europe, by an ostentatious patronage which he had never asked?
2439Was it fair to him to leave him in the dark till within thirty- six hours of the time fixed for the reading of the Declaration?
2439Was it not mockery to call on a man thus plundered and oppressed to suffer martyrdom for the property and liberty of his plunderers and oppressors?
2439Was it possible that nobody at Whitehall was aware of what was passing in England and on the Continent?
2439Was it rebellion to defend those laws and that religion which every King of England bound himself by oath to maintain?
2439Was the King bewitched?
2439Was the boy likely to learn, under such tuition and in such a situation, respect for the institutions of his native land?
2439Was there anything unreasonable in the apprehension that this force might be employed to do what the French dragoons had done?
2439Was there then no remedy?
2439Were his ministers blind?
2439Were they his masters?
2439Were they to sit in judgment on the conduct of foreign sovereigns?
2439What Christian really gave his cloak to the thieves who had taken his coat away?
2439What Christian really turned the left cheek to the ruffian who had smitten the right?
2439What can you do to pleasure him as to that matter?"
2439What casuist, what lawyer, has ever been able nicely to mark the limits of the right of selfdefence?
2439What chance that he would even be able to escape condign punishment?
2439What commission has he to be impudent here?
2439What conceivable motive had Sunderland to wish for a revolution?
2439What do you do here?
2439What does he do without a keeper?
2439What error have I committed?"
2439What had he not to dread?
2439What had he to hope from a change?
2439What have apprehension and jealousy to do here?
2439What is it made like?"
2439What reason was there, then, to doubt that James waited only for an opportunity to follow the example?
2439What security then could his word afford to sects divided from him by the recollection of a thousand inexpiable wounds inflicted and endured?
2439What step was he next to take?
2439What then was his conduct likely to be, if his subjects consented to free him, by a legislative act, from even the shadow of restraint?
2439What was the value of privileges which must be held by a tenure at once so ignominious and so insecure?
2439What, then, was the inevitable inference?
2439Where were now those gallant gentlemen who had ever been ready to shed their blood for the crown?
2439Where were those priests and prelates who had, from ten thousand pulpits, proclaimed the duty of obeying the anointed delegate of God?
2439Where, he asked, was he to look for protection?
2439While that war was raging in the British Isles, what might not Lewis attempt on the Continent?
2439Who could say what effect such severity as Clarendon recommended might produce on the public mind of England?
2439Who, then, was the next heir?
2439Why could he not sit still as his betters, Sawyer, Pemberton, and Pollexfen had done?
2439Why did you not obey the King?"
2439Why not try the event of a battle?
2439Why retreat from Salisbury?
2439Why should not the purgation be common also?
2439Why was no prelate of the Established Church in attendance?
2439Why was not the Dutch Ambassador summoned?
2439Why, in short, was there, in the long list of assistants, not a single name which commanded public confidence and respect?
2439Would not the trainbands flock by thousands to the standard of the deliverer?
2439Yet who could answer for the effect which the appearance of such an army might produce?
2439Yet who would, on that account, interdict all selfdefence?
2439[ 207] Who indeed could hope to stand where the Hydes had fallen?
2439[ 345] But how was this plan to be carried into effect?
2439[ 380] Was it a disqualification that he was the near kinsman of the Princesses of Orange and Denmark?
2439said James,"is Est- il- possible gone too?
2439said the dexterous diplomatist;"do you wish to get the King into your power?"
2439where is he?
4194Up, called up by drums and trumpets; these things and boxes[??]
4194Up, called up by drums and trumpets; these things and boxes[??]
4178Why,says H. Bellasses,"you will not hurt me coming out, will you?"
4178It was pleasantly said by a man in this City, a stranger, to one that told him that the peace was concluded,"Well,"says he,"and have you a peace?"
4178So out he went, and both drew: and H. Bellasses having drawn and flung away his scabbard, Tom Porter asked him whether he was ready?
4178Tom Killigrew, being by, answered,"Sir,"says he,"pray which is the best for a man, to be a Tom Otter to his wife or to his mistress?"
4178are they quarrelling, that they talk so high?"
4178says he:"I would have you know that I never quarrel, but I strike; and take that as a rule of mine!"--"How?"
35933''Tis a miserable house,she answered,"damp and low; but what can we do?
35933But where bide they, the sisters twain? 35933 Come to see what you can pick up, eh?"
35933Did you do it for pleasure?
35933For good people after all, what is a waterfall? 35933 How many sheep do you consider fair stock to the acre?"
35933Mr. White, if you had wanted a wife, do you think you could choose one out of Swaledale?
35933Pretty outlandish talk that, is n''t it?
35933So, you do believe at last,I rejoined,"that scenery is worth looking at, as well as a horse?"
35933There''s a vast of''em coom t''feast, is n''t there?
35933What did he say to ye?
35933What do they addle?
35933What is Bradford famous for?
35933What''s ta do?
35933What''s the matter, Massey?
35933Whence come ye, daughters? 35933 ''Wot''s ta do?'' 35933 A man who sat reading at his door near the farther end of the village looked up as I passed, and asked,Will ye have a drink o''porter?"
35933And ever since he had been repeating to himself,"What do they addle?"
35933And if ye come again will it be another guinea?"
35933Are they edifying?
35933Are they harmless?
35933But whither?
35933Can they who find satisfaction therein be led up to something better?
35933Did not his tomb sweat blood on that famous day of Agincourt, and the rumour thereof bring Henry V. and his lovely Kate hither on a pilgrimage?
35933Did the decrepit old shambles, roofed with paving- flags, still encumber the spacious market- place at Thirsk?
35933Did their forefathers ever roar when Paulinus preached to them from a mossy rock, or under the shadow of a spreading oak?
35933Do they supply a real want?
35933For why?
35933From what part of the country were they drifted to their present position?
35933Hath God forgotten then the mean and small?
35933Have the holy sisters fled?
35933How shall one who has not spent years among them essay to reproduce the sounds?
35933Is it that Quakerism has accomplished its work?
35933Is not the southern landing place of the steam- ferry named New Holland?
35933Much has been said and written concerning the high cost of travelling in England as compared with the Continent, but is it really so?
35933Must I confess it?
35933My ear caught at the sharp twang of the_ ar_--a Yorkshire man would have said Nunthurp-- and turning to the speaker I said,"Surely that''s Berkshire?"
35933Seeing a factory on the outskirts of the town, he asked a girl,"What do they make in that factory?"
35933Sheffield raised a regiment to march against the Sepoys; why not raise a company to put down its own pestiferous blacks?
35933That''s where we live, is it-- down there, under all that smoke?
35933The Island will continue to increase in extent and value as long as the same causes continue to operate; and who shall set limits to them?
35933The old meeting- house, the school- room, and dwelling- house, remained; why should they not be restored to their original uses?
35933The other, entitled_ Daniel the Prophet_, begins with:"Where are now the Hebrew children?
35933There the base Cartismandua, betrayer of Caractacus, held her court?
35933Thou hadst( and who had doubted thee?)
35933Was York still famous for muffins, or Northallerton for quoits, cricket, and spell- and- nurr?
35933Was it here, I wonder, that the Yorkshire boy lived who had a bull pup, in the training of which he took great delight?
35933Was it not to St. John of Beverley that Athelstan owed the victory at Brunanburgh, which made him sole monarch of Northumbria?
35933Was it not"about Wensleydale"that George Fox saw"a great people in white raiment by a river- side?"
35933Were they inhabited when the Brigantes first mustered to repel the Romans?
35933What d''ye come poakin yer noase thro''here for?"
35933What is it to them that the mistress has to buckle- to, and be her own servant for a while, and see to the washing, and make the bread?
35933What is it to them?
35933What should they know about it?
35933What would the Plantagenets say, could they come back to life, and see trade inhabiting palaces far more stately than those of kings?
35933What would the devout monks say could they hear it?
35933What''s the Bible?
35933Where are now the Hebrew children?
35933Where are now the Hebrew children?
35933Where is now the patriarch Wesley?
35933Where is now the patriarch Wesley?
35933Where was there anything like religion now- a- days, except among the Roman Catholics?
35933Whither went they?
35933Would the sea be satisfied with that one mouthful?
35933Yet might there not be caverns still more wonderful beyond?
35933exclaimed one of the Yorkshiremen,"who''d ha''thought to see anything like this?
35933is ye boun into Swawldawl?"
35933or that it has been stifled by the assiduous painstaking to make itself very comfortable?
35933packman, d''ye carry beuks?"
35933that''s Maum Cove, is it?"
35933where was I going?
35933why should I sweat for nothin''?
4162But, damn me,said Sir Philip,"will you so and so?"
4162And to that; to have it said, what hath been done by our late fleetes?
4162But strange to see how they held up their hands crying,"What shall we do?"
4162How have you done all this week?"
4162How he should go off then?
4162Says my Lord Treasurer,"Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys?
4162This is true, you say; but what would you have me to do?
4162Why do our prizes come to nothing, that yielded so much heretofore?"
4162Why will not people lend their money?
4162Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver?
42139Well, John, what''s the news?
42139BASSENTHWAITE AND DERWENTWATER What was the great Parnassus''self to thee Mount Skiddaw?
4185--"So,"says he,"if a rhodomontado will do any good, why do you not say 100 ships?"
4185What is the matter if he be drunk, so when he comes to fight he do his work?
4185Will all things be set right in the nation?"
37374And then Mr. Speaker, pursuant to the said order, asked Mr. O''Connell whether he would take the said Oath of Supremacy? 37374 And do you attach in your mind no different meaning to the wordswear"than you would to the word"affirm?"
37374And then Mr. Speaker, pursuant to the said order, asked Mr. O''Connell whether he would take the said Oath of Supremacy?
37374Are members, whose conduct may be obnoxious, to vote my exclusion because to them my opinions are obnoxious?
37374Are views on politics urged as a reason why a member should not sit here?
37374Are you going to declare the seat vacant?
37374Bradlaugh?"
37374But does the House mean it is a party now?
37374But is that a reason, that, because I stand alone the House are to do against me what they would not do if I had 100,000 men at my back?
37374But it is said, why not have taken the oath quietly?
37374But was the House a party when John Stuart Mill sat in this House?
37374Did the House join in it?
37374Did you believe these things, Sir, when they were stated and loudly cheered by those who sit around you on your side of the House?
37374Do they mean to you:"May God desert and forsake me as I deserted and forsook the Queen''s supremacy, to which I so solemnly swore allegiance"?
37374Do you do either?
37374Do you mean that I am to go back to Northampton as to a court, to appeal against you?
37374Do you mean that I can injure the dignity of this House?
37374Do you tell me I am unfit to sit amongst you?
37374Does the House mean that it is a party to each oath taken?
37374Have you any objection to tell the Committee what those three words were?--The question put by Mr. Justice Brett was,"Why?"
37374Have you any such fear?
37374Have you no personal shame that you have broken your oath?
37374How do you understand them of your broken oath?
37374How is the dignity of this House to be hurt?
37374How lately is it that you have claimed a right to affirm in a court of law?--In a superior court or in an inferior court?
37374If I am not dangerous, why not let me speak there?
37374If I did aught before that rendered me unworthy to sit here, why did the House let me sit here from the 2nd of July to the 29th of March?
37374If it were true that I was kicked downstairs I would ask members of the House of Commons on whom the shame, on whom the disgrace, on whom the stigma?
37374If opinions, why not conduct?
37374If the House did not join in it, why did you cheer so that the words of the oath were drowned?
37374If there is no danger, why disobey the law?
37374If there is no danger, why strain the law?
37374If what I did entitles the House not to receive me, why has not the House had the courage of its opinions and vacated the seat?
37374Is it for a disqualification or ineligibility of like legal character arising since my election?
37374Is it the oath alone which stirs you?
37374Is it the oath and not the man?
37374Is that not some proof that I have honor and conscience?
37374Is there not some proof to the contrary in the fact that I did not go through the form, believing that there was another right open to me?
37374It is not pretended that there has been a single circumstance of illegality connected with the election, the sole point being, Am I qualified to sit?
37374My theology?
37374None either in the rash taking or the wilful breaking?
37374On the report of the committee as it stands, on the evidence before the House, what is the objection to either my affirming or taking the oath?
37374Or do the pride and pomp of your ecclesiastical position outbribe your conscience?
37374Politics?
37374Possibly; but if it be so, is it against me rightly or wrongly?
37374So help me, God?"
37374Some gentlemen say"No,"but where is the challenge to stop?
37374The question is, has my return on the 9th of April, 1881, anything whatever to impeach it?
37374Then how?
37374Then why not let me in?
37374This House supreme among the assemblies of the world?
37374This House which has stood unrivalled for centuries?
37374This House, which represents the traditions of liberty?
37374Was it a party the Session before last?
37374Was it a party when Mr. Hall walked up to that table, cheered by members on the other side who knew his seat was won by deliberate bribery?
37374Was the Archdeacon of Chichester ambitious of the Cardinal''s hat that he became so readily forsworn?
37374Was the Rector of Lavington and Graffham covetous of an archbishopric that he broke his oath?
37374Well, will this House repeat its vote of 9th May?
37374What are you to do then?
37374What do you send me back to Northampton to say?
37374What has been alleged against me?
37374What kind of a conflict is provoked here if this resolution be enforced?
37374What then?
37374What will you inquire into?
37374Why not examine into members''conduct when they come to the table, and see if there be no members in whose way you can put a barrier?
37374Will it have the courage of its opinions, and vacate my seat?
37374Will it substitute force for law?
37374Will you inquire into my conduct, or is it only my opinions you will try here?
37374Will you send me back from here?
37374or have you been personally conveniently absolved from the"eternal"consequences of your perjury?
37374that I am to ask the constituency to array themselves against this House?
41448But how often do we see the phrase:"The ridge was stormed, under heavy fire, by an English regiment?"
41448Ca n''t you_ see that_?"
41448Candid friends say, quite simply:"If you English ca n''t run Ireland yourselves, why not let the Irish have a try?"
41448Did you ever know an American who had n''t got his pedigree worked out to three places of decimals?
41448For goodness sake what more do you want?"
41448In practice, what is he?
41448Now why?
41448So why advertise the fact unnecessarily?
41448What is the attitude of Canada, Australasia, and South Africa to the mother country?
41448Why make a cantata about it?"
41448Yet how often is this fact so much as admitted by soulful exploiters of Erin''s wrongs in America or the Dominions?
41074And what do you give me, O my father?

21210Is not a full indulgence of its natural tendencies essential to a_ people''s_ greatness?
21210Is not this an epitome of the Protestant patriot attempts, from the Revolution to the Dungannon Convention?
21210Is not this the soul of''82?
21210Is not this the whole argument of Molyneux, the hope of Swift and Lucas, the attempt of Flood, the achievement of Grattan and the Volunteers?
21210Is there any parish wherein there are no Repeal Wardens active every week in collecting money, distributing cards, tracts, and newspapers?
21210Is there any town or district which has not a Temperance Band and Reading- room?
21210Is there some prolific virtue in the blood of a landlord that the fields of the South will yield a richer crop where it has flowed?
21210Is what we have said_ clear_ to_ you_, reader!--whether you are a shopkeeper or a lawyer, a farmer or a doctor?
21210It had nothing to sell; why tax its trade?
21210It is the cause of our unanimity; for where else has a party, so large as the Irish Repealers, worked without internal squabbles?
21210It undoubtedly has some men of great ability and attainments, and some who have neither; but what can be done without funds, statues, or pictures?
21210Meantime, how much have the Irish people gained and done?
21210Or on the wild heath, Where the wilder breath Of the storm doth blow?
21210Send the cry throughout the land,"Who''s for our own again?"
21210Shall my ashes career on the world- seeing wind?
21210Shall they bury me in the Palace Tombs, Or under the shade of Cathedral domes?
21210Shall they bury me in the deep, Where wind- forgetting waters sleep?
21210Shall they dig a grave for me, Under the green- wood tree?
21210Shall they fling my corpse in the battle mound, Where coffinless thousands lie under the ground?
21210Shall we get such a history?
21210Summon all men to our band,-- Why not our own again?
21210Sweet''twere to lie on Italy''s shore; Yet not there-- nor in Greece, though I love it more, In the wolf or the vulture my grave shall I find?
21210The brawling squires may heed him not, The dainty stranger sneer-- But who will dare to hurt our cot When Myles O''Hea is here?
21210The cry of''What can we do?
21210The people of Munster are in want-- will murder feed them?
21210The rebellion of 1641--a mystery and a lie-- is it not time to let every man look it in the face?
21210The rifle brown and sabre bright Can freely speak and nobly write-- What prophets preached the truth so well As HOFER, BRIAN, BRUCE, and TELL?
21210They_ can not all be worthless_; yet, except the few volumes given us by the Archà ¦ ological Society, which of their works have any of us read?
21210Those of Moore have reached the drawing rooms; but what do the People know even of his?
21210Through broad Fingall, where hasten all those long and ordered lines?
21210Well, what did these two houses do?
21210What business has a Russian for the rippling language of Italy or India?
21210What business have we with the Norman- Sassenagh?
21210What chance has the guilty of success?--what right to commit so deadly a sin?
21210What could Repeal take from Irish Protestants that they are not gradually losing''_ in due course_''?
21210What do these mobs mean?
21210What had not the defenders of Derry and Limerick, the heroes of Athlone, Inniskillen, and Aughrim done, had they cordially joined against the alien?
21210What matter that at different shrines We pray unto one God?
21210What matter that at different times Your fathers won this sod?
21210What other country pays four and a half million taxes to a foreign treasury, and has its offices removed or filled with foreigners?
21210What single tax did you take off, except when it had been raised so high, or the country had declined so low, that it ceased to be productive?
21210What wonder that we had resented the attempt to cure us of so sweet a frenzy?
21210What would it stead me to put properties of land in order, while I am at variance with myself?
21210Whence is the difference?
21210Where are we led by our fears?
21210Where else are the People told they are free and represented, yet only one in two hundred of them have the franchise?
21210Where else are the tenants ever pulling, the owners ever driving, and both full of anger?
21210Where else are the towns ruined, trade banished, the till, and the workshop, and the stomach of the artisan empty?
21210Where else in Europe is the peasant ragged, fed on roots, in a wigwam, without education?
21210Where else is there an exportation of over one- third of the rents, and an absenteeism of the chief landlords?
21210Where else on_ earth_ does a similar injury and dishonour exist?
21210Where, beside, do the majority support the Clergy of the minority?
21210Where, in distracted or quiet times, since, has a parliament of landlords in England or Ireland acted with equal liberality?
21210Wherefore do they stand apart now, when she is again erect, and righteous, and daring?
21210Wherein does she now differ from Prussia?
21210Wherein, we ask again, does Ireland now differ from Prussia?
21210Who but Fergus O''Farrell, the fiery and gay, The darling and pride of the Flower of Finae?
21210Who had dared to propose the adoption of Persian or Egyptian in Greece-- how had Pericles thundered at the barbarian?
21210Why can Prussia wave her flag among the proudest in Europe, while Ireland is a farm?
21210Why did you die?
21210Why did you die?
21210Why is it maintained?
21210Why is it, with these means of amassing and guarding wealth, that we are so poor and paltry?
21210Why is there not a decent collection of casts anywhere but in Cork, and why are they in a garret there?
21210Why need we repeat the tale of present wretchedness?
21210Why should not nations be judged thus?
21210Why should_ it_ be taxed?
21210Why was it not at Brugh that the kings( of the race of Cobhthach down to Crimthann) were interred?
21210Why, then, are we a poor province?
21210Why, too, should Munster lead in guilt?
21210Will they not be hopeless?--must they not be desperately wicked?
21210Will they suffer this hell- blight to come upon them?
21210Will they wait till violence and suspicion are the only principles retaining power among them?
21210Will ye do nothing for pity-- nothing for love?
21210Will you abate your taxes, or spend them among us?
21210Will you employ our artisans?
21210Will you equalise the franchise, and admit us, in proportion to our numbers, into your Senate, and let us try there for redress?
21210Will you interfere in property to save him, as you interfered to oppress him?
21210Will you redress these things?
21210Will you tax our absentees?
21210With frown and curse, behind the hearse, dark men go tramping on-- Has a tyrant died, that they can not hide their wrath till the rites are done?
21210With tear and sigh they''re passing by-- the matron and the maid-- Has a hero died-- is a nation''s pride in that cold coffin laid?
21210Wo n''t they come and talk to us about these horrid deeds?
21210Wo n''t they meet us( as brothers to consider disorders in their family) and do something-- do all to stop them?
21210Would it injure Protestantism?
21210Would it weaken the empire to abolish this?
21210Yet how mountaineer without ballads any more than without a shillelagh?
21210Yet what was Emancipation compared to Repeal?
21210Your troubles are all over, you''re at rest with God on high, But we''re slaves, and we''re orphans, Eoghan!--why didst thou die?"

21210for wheat, the Protestant religion is safe on its rock?
21210has God given you the soul and perseverance to create this marvel?

21210what riches to reward these inestimable services?

38214Whom did he coerce?

38749How can I be sure,she said to me,"that, though my mother was a cook, my father might not have been a_ préfet_, or even a prince?"
38749Look''ere,said the policeman,"where do you live any''ow?"
38749Provençale?
38749Seen a cat? 38749 Well, and have you ever seen one come down again?"
38749What would you have?
38749What, mum?
38749Why not apply to the''New York Herald''office here?
38749Wot sort o''cat?
38749You have been amused?
38749A younger woman, golden- haired, in big hat and feathers, whom the others called Duchess, demanded"Who are you anyhow?"
38749And how can I help it if, when I am there, I see many things besides the beauty that lured us to the Quarter and keeps us in it?
38749And now what had she to say?
38749And now?
38749And then?
38749Auguste?
38749But could we see her go?
38749But he might have been the burglar for all Trimmer knew, and-- what then?
38749But if Louise had not asked for our marriage certificate, could we insist upon her producing hers?
38749But what could I do?
38749But why make it sad for all the world because she was in pain?
38749Could I blame her?
38749Could he go?
38749Did M. Auguste''s fate overtake him when they crossed the Channel?
38749Did she ever leave London?
38749Did she use the money to go back to Marseilles?
38749Had he gone?
38749Had she not said_ Madame_ was kind?
38749He was a man like us, was n''t He?
38749Her head was no better, and what was the hospital good for if they could n''t cure her?
38749How could I see blood on the hands of the man who presided so joyously over my pots and pans?
38749How could she forget us?
38749How could we forget her?
38749I complimented her on her fore- thought; but"What could I do?"
38749I could not believe that she really did not know, and at last I asked her:--"I suppose you have heard, Trimmer, what has been going on these days?"
38749I remember Harold Frederic seeing her once and, with the intuition of the novelist, placing her:"Who is your old Queen Victoria?"
38749Nor would there be a penny over for the family mourning,--could I allow them, the chief mourners, to mourn without crape?
38749On one of these occasions, a policeman materializing suddenly from nowhere and turning a bull''s- eye on him,--"Have you seen a cat about?"
38749She giggled:"Would_ Madame_ look at her feet in_ Madame''s_ shoes?
38749She had but arrived in London, she had never gone as_ bonne_ anywhere; how, then, could she give references?
38749She had never done any harm to any one: why should she have to suffer?
38749She needed the work and was willing to do it: was not that sufficient?
38749Then he added:"You have seen dozens of children go up to the Dramatist''s room, have n''t you?"
38749We have told her many stories,--_et des histoires un tout petit peu salées, n''est- ce pas?
38749Were the Soho lodgings the scene of some tremendous_ crime passionel_?
38749What Trimmer did, when she came home ten minutes later and I told her,"There''s a burglar in the box- room,"was to say,"Oh, is there, mum?
38749What became of her, who can say?
38749What could be simpler?
38749What could she do but go and look after them when he asked her?
38749What did we know about him, anyway?
38749What happened?
38749What if the murder is only technical, Mr. Square''s arrest a matter of form, his discharge immediate?
38749What would you?
38749When Augustine warned her that her idleness was preparing for her a bed on the Embankment and daily food in a soup- kitchen,"_ Eh bien?_ why not?"

38749When did I propose to pay back the money Trimmer had spent on the doctor in Camden Town?
38749Who could help loving her?
38749Why did n''t I think of it before?
38749Why, indeed?
38749Why, she moaned, should this sorrow come to her?
38749With so stupendous a spectacle arranged for my benefit, is it any marvel that much of my time is spent at my windows?

33107Aloof from party, unknown to the public, writing for neither fame nor favor, what is the meaning of this literary adventurer?
33107And who shall decide at this late day on forgeries?
33107And why?
33107Are there any certain limits, in fact or theory, to inform you at what point you must stop-- at what point the mortification ends?
33107Are your wife and children destitute of a bed to lie on, or bread to live on?
33107But could Francis have forged the hand of Junius?
33107But how shall it be obtained?
33107But if you say you can still pass the violations over, then I ask, hath your house been burnt?
33107But in order not to be too hasty we ought to ask: Is there not_ one_ fact in the whole life and character of Mr. Paine incompatible with Junius?
33107But what will all their efforts avail?
33107But where is John Adams, who said that Jefferson had stolen his ideas from him to put into the Declaration of Independence?
33107But where is the man who has on hand the_ business of a world_?
33107But who shall now take it to France, and in person represent the situation and demand assistance, as set forth in this letter?
33107But why this subterfuge, if Mr. Paine was not Junius, and he had not yet a work to perform in England?
33107Can the great life to come rest on nothing?
33107Can ye give to prostitution its former innocence?
33107Did Junius write falsely when he said:"This edition contains_ all_ the letters of Junius?"
33107Did Mr. Jefferson study this production of Thomas Paine''s so closely as to get the_ exact order_, without transposing an article?
33107Do you ask how I know this?
33107Does he go there to satisfy his taste for learning, or to get rich?
33107Hath your property been destroyed before your face?
33107Have they firmness enough to meet the fury of a venal House of Commons?
33107Have they fortitude enough not to shrink at imprisonment?
33107Have they spirit enough to hazard their_ lives and fortunes_ in a_ contest_, if it should be necessary, with a prostituted legislature?
33107Have you lost a parent or a child by their hands, and yourself the ruined and wretched survivor?
33107How many more may have to go the same way?
33107How, then, was the exact order followed, in writing the Declaration, which Mr. Paine laid down in Common Sense?
33107I am now prepared to ask: What, then, was the object of Junius?
33107I do not ask whether this is Christianity or morality, I ask whether it is decency?
33107I therefore ask: Who was Junius?
33107If not Junius, what is the meaning of it?
33107If the majority can disfranchise ten boroughs, why not twenty-- why not the whole kingdom?
33107In short, Jefferson was peculiarly attached to the Scotch, and why?
33107Is there no child of America among all the sons of Freedom equal to the task?
33107Is there no merit in dedicating my life to the information of my fellow- subjects?
33107Is this the law of Parliament, or is it not?
33107May there not be many more such cases?
33107More than once my pen has refused to set about this work, but I now ask: Who wrote the original Declaration of Independence?
33107Mr. Paine asked, in the last sentence quoted above in the parallel column:"Why is the constitution of England sickly?"
33107Now, is the positive evidence of the_ genuine_ Letters to be set aside by this fugitive note and letter of_ Scotus_?
33107Paine exclaims:"Why is man afraid to think?"
33107Query: Can a person forget about something which never was?
33107Query: Did not the experts depend largely on the manuscript of this spurious Scotch epistle to make out a case of identity in handwriting?
33107The President inquired of him,"Did you write this piece?"
33107They both declare_ Law to be king_:_ Paine._"But where, say some, is the king of America?
33107Thus also Junius:"Is there no merit in dedicating my life to the information of my fellow- subjects?
33107To bring the matter to one point, is the power who is jealous of our prosperity a proper power to govern us?
33107To this end I subjoin Lord Macaulay''s five reasons why Sir Philip Francis was Junius:"Was he the author of the Letters of Junius?
33107To what_ Cause_ has he"_ dedicated his life_"?
33107Was he a man of fortune or of humble means?
33107Was he a peer, or the leader of a party or faction, or was he one of the common people?
33107Was he too_ modest_ to affirm it till he had got into his dotage?
33107We acknowledge the piety of St. James'', but what has become of its morality?"
33107We are already greater than the king wishes us to be, and will he not hereafter endeavor to make us less?
33107Were he a member of this House, what might not be expected from his knowledge, his firmness, and integrity?
33107What could be more like Junius than this?
33107What does he mean by"The_ Cause_ and the_ People_"?
33107What must be the result of this religion?
33107What public question have I declined?
33107What shall now be done?
33107What though he riots in the plunder of the army, and has only determined to be a patriot when he could not be a peer?
33107What villain have I spared?
33107What was the position of Junius in society?
33107What, then, was he?
33107When all others fail, both in council and in war, who shall be able to cheer the heart and lift up the head of the nation?
33107When will the humility of this country end?
33107When you propose to cut away the rotten parts,_ can you tell us what parts are perfectly sound_?
33107Whence came that mighty pen, which has often been acknowledged to have done more for human freedom than the sword of Washington?
33107Where are the committeemen who took the Declaration of Independence into Congress?
33107Where art thou thyself?
33107Where is the chief representative from New England, this"Colossus"of debate, this chief of the war committee?
33107Where is the god of battle, that he has deserted America?
33107Where now are the hopes of America?
33107Why did he say it?
33107Why may there not be a scientific criticism?
33107Why should not they make their own seats in parliament for life?
33107Why this dumb silence of history?
33107Why this great zeal and disinterested benevolence?
33107Why was he thus explicit if he had been writing continually over other signatures?
33107Will they go up with remonstrances to the king?
33107With what color of truth, then, can he pretend''that I am nowhere to be encountered but in a newspaper?''
33107[ A] How comes this JUNIUS to have broke through the cobwebs of the law, and to range uncontrolled, unpunished, through the land?
33107_ Where is John Adams_ in this darkest hour of his country''s trial?
33107and this?"
33107and which, if he should desert, would be the"_ vilest prostitution_?"

33107what is he?
33107whether it is proper language for a nation to use?

40371Rufus was angry,"What good would come of this matter for you?"
40371The Archbishop begged the King not to rob the Abbeys and the King answered,"What are the abbeys to you?
40371The wise men begged Harold to burn the land, that the enemy might starve, but Harold would not, for he said,"How can I do harm to my own people?"
40371Then Henry turned sorrowfully to his father,"And what, my father, do you give to me?"
40371Then said Henry,"What shall I do with this money, having no corner of the earth I can call my own?"
40371Then they threatened to burn and slay, and the citizens in their fear said,"Why do we not let these good people enter into the city?
40371They were to ask of the lord and of the freemen in the villages and of the monks in the monasteries these questions: How much land have you?
40371What can you discover about the Normans from the pictures of the Bayeux Tapestry?

40371What saw thou there?
40371What services do you owe the King for it?
40371What shall I do?"
40371What shall I say of the cities and towns which he restored, and of the others which he built, where before there had never been any?
40371What will ye say?"
40371Who gave you that land?

40371Why do they not ask me for the Kingdom at once?

2643And why do n''t you?
2643Art thou,quoth he,"turned bubble in thy old age, from being a sharper in thy youth?
2643Before I begin,quoth John,"I hope your honour wo n''t be offended if I ask you whether you intend to alter your will?
2643Then who the devil wilt thou have? 2643 This, gentlemen, is the rope that hanged Jack; what must be done with it?"
2643What signifies life,quoth he,"in this languishing condition?
2643What think you of my sister Peg,says he,"that faints at the sound of an organ, and yet will dance and frisk at the noise of a bagpipe?"
2643What''s that to you?
2643Why do n''t you?
2643Why, Betty,quoth John,"thou art not run mad, art thou?
2643Will nothing less than hanging serve?
2643Wilt thou, then, have Esquire South to be Lord Strutt?
2643Wo n''t my enemies take bail for my good behaviour? 2643 ''Tis true I have possession, and the tenants own me for master; but has not Esquire South the equity of redemption? 2643 ''Will nothing cure thee of thy pranks, Nic.?'' 2643 * Is it not strange, when my husband disbursed great sums every term, Frog should be purchasing some new farm or manor? 2643 *Lord,"quoth I,"what makes you so jealous of a poor, old, innocent gentlewoman, that minds only her prayers and her Practice of Piety?
2643*"What is the matter with the old gentlewoman?"
2643ANDREW.--But will you make it sure?
2643ANDREW.--No, sir; I only desire to know what you would do if you were dead?
2643And what return, think you, does this fine gentleman make us?
2643Another was thus expressed:"Friend Lewis, has thy sense quite forsaken thee to make Bull such offers?
2643Are Cethegus and Catiline turned so tame, that there will be no opportunity to cry about the streets,"A Dangerous Plot?"
2643Are not these words plain?
2643As for his personal reflections, I would gladly know who are those''wanton wives''he speaks of?
2643Ask but any indifferent gentleman, Who ought to bear his charges at law?
2643At last one physician asked if the lady had ever been used to take laudanum?
2643BULL.--And were you surprised at this?
2643BULL.--I hope you examined a little into this matter?
2643BULL.--No clause of redemption, say you?
2643BULL.--What could you answer to this?
2643BULL.--What said Lord Strutt to all this?
2643But how camest thou to hear all this, John?
2643But who the devil are those two majors that consume all my money?
2643But why should I stand surety for his contracts?
2643But, after all, canst thou gather grapes from thorns?
2643Can any man manage thy cause better for thee?
2643D''ye see where I am, Nic.?
2643D. DIEGO-- Why in such a passion, cousin?
2643DIEGO.--And would you lose the honour of so noble and generous an undertaking?
2643DIEGO.--For God''s sake, madam, why so choleric?
2643DIEGO.--Pray tell me how you came to employ this Sir Roger in your affairs, and not think of your old friend Diego?
2643DON DIEGO.--Consider, then, who is your best friend: he that would have brought him to condign punishment, or he that has saved him?
2643Did you like Frog''s countenance better than mine?
2643Do n''t you hear how Lord Strutt has bespoke his liveries at Lewis Baboon''s shop?
2643Do you consider she keeps you out of a good jointure?
2643Does not thy own hand and seal oblige thee to purchase for me till I say it is enough?
2643Does this become the generosity of the noble and rich John Bull?
2643Dost think that John Bull will be tried by piepowders?
2643Dost thou think thy friend Nicholas Frog made a child''s bargain?
2643FRIEND JOHN,--What schellum is it that makes thee jealous of thy old friend Nicholas?
2643FROG.--And you are really so silly as to believe the old cheating rogue will give it you?
2643FROG.--But do you consider the unwholesomeness of the air and soil, the expenses of reparations and servants?
2643FROG.--What dost talk of us?
2643FROG.--Why all this higgling with thy friend about such a paltry sum?
2643Frog was us?
2643Frog, Lord of Claypool?
2643Frog, and the rest of the tradesmen?
2643Frog.--"How d''ye do, Nic.?
2643HAB.--Dost take me for a common liar?
2643HAB.--Is there no end of thy how s and thy why s?
2643HAB.--Why so mistrustful?
2643HOCUS.--What makes you so shy of late, my good friend?
2643Had not Lord Strutt reason to be angry?
2643Has old Lewis given thee a rap over thy fingers''ends?
2643Hast thou forgot how some years ago he took thee out of the sponging- house?
2643Have I not clad your whole family?
2643Have I not presented you nobly?
2643Have you not had a hundred yards at a time of the finest cloth in my shop?
2643Have you provided a very sharp knife, in case of the worst?
2643He is a fit match for a tailor''s or a shoemaker''s daughter, but not for you that are a gentlewoman?"
2643Her brother would now and then ask her,"What dost thou see in that pragmatical coxcomb to make thee so in love with him?
2643How comest thou to go with thy arm tied up?
2643How did my guardians mistake my genius in placing me, like a mean slave, behind a counter?
2643How didst thou describe their intrepid march up Holborn Hill?
2643How didst thou move our terror and our pity with thy passionate scenes between Jack Catch and the heroes of the Old Bailey?
2643How do I lament thy downfall?
2643How do you mean, says John, by personal reflections?
2643How goes affairs, Andrew?
2643How is it possible for a man of business to keep his affairs even in the world at this rate?
2643How will the noble arts of John Overton''s** painting and sculpture now languish?
2643I call them necessary means, for in many cases what other means are left?
2643I came into the room with a good deal of concern, and asked them what they thought of my mother?
2643I have purchased with my own money, my children''s and my grandchildren''s money-- is not that enough?
2643I hope in God, wife, he did not reflect upon you?
2643If he behaves himself so when he depends on us for his daily bread, can any man say what he will do when he is got above the world?
2643If one asked her,"Are not you related to John Bull?"
2643If one asked them how Mrs. Bull did?
2643If they use thee thus when they want thee, what will they do when thou wantest them?
2643Is he not just upon my borders?
2643Is he well, is he well?
2643Is it not evident to all the world that I am still hemmed in by Lewis Baboon?
2643Is it possible that good man, Sir Roger, can have so much pity upon an unfortunate scoundrel that has persecuted him so many years?
2643Is that thy conscience, John?
2643Is there never an old pope or pretender to hang up in my stead?
2643JACK.--Are you sure he is in the next room?
2643JACK.--But what if Sir Roger should not come; will my friends be there to succour me?
2643JACK.--How d''ye mean, make as if I hanged myself?
2643JACK.--May I presume to ask who it is that is entrusted with so important an office?
2643JACK.--Mayn''t I quilt my rope?
2643JACK.--That''s true; but what if I should do it in effigies?
2643JOHN BULL.--"If thou wilt not let me have them, wilt thou take them thyself?"
2643JOHN BULL.--"Shall I leave all this matter to thy management, Nic., and go about my business?"
2643JOHN BULL.--"Shall I serve Philip Baboon with broadcloth, and accept of the composition that he offers, with the liberty of his parks and fishponds?"
2643JOHN BULL.--And this is your sorites, you say?
2643JOHN BULL.--Are you glad to see your master in Ecclesdown Castle?
2643JOHN BULL.--B''ye, b''ye, Nic,; not one poor smile at parting?
2643JOHN BULL.--But tell me, old boy, hast thou laid aside all thy equivocals and mentals in this case?
2643JOHN BULL.--During this general cessation of talk, what if you and I, Nic., should inquire how money matters stand between us?
2643JOHN BULL.--Every single stone of Ecclesdown Castle, to my own self, speedily?
2643JOHN BULL.--Every wall, gate, room, and inch of Ecclesdown Castle, you say?
2643JOHN BULL.--Extremely glad?
2643JOHN BULL.--I shall have it to my own self?
2643JOHN BULL.--What then?
2643JOHN BULL.--What''s the matter now?
2643JOHN BULL.--Who could help it?
2643JOHN BULL.--Who told you that Sir Roger has done so?
2643JOHN BULL.--Wilt thou purchase it, Nic.?
2643LEWIS BABOON.--How could Monsieur Bull be so grossly abused by downright nonsense?
2643LEWIS BABOON.--When you please; what needs more words?
2643Let me ask thee one question more; what hast thou to do to meddle with the affairs of my family?
2643More money for more law was plain to a demonstration, for who can go to law without money?
2643Nic., who wouldst thou have to be Lord Strutt?
2643One tells me that I must carry on my suit, because Lewis is poor; another, because he is still too rich: whom shall I believe?
2643SIR ROGER.--Who''s hanged?
2643The only question, then, that remains to be decided is: who shall stand the expenses of the suit?
2643The third was as evident as the other two; for what composition could be made with a rogue that never kept a word he said?
2643Then Jack''s friends began to hunch and push one another:"Why do n''t you go and cut the poor fellow down?"
2643Then he broke out into a violent passion:"What, I not fit for a lawyer?
2643To which the answer is as plain: who but he that is to have the advantage of the sentence?
2643Was not I your old friend and relation?
2643Well, tota pecunia let it be, for at present I have none at all; he would not have me purchase with other people''s money, sure?
2643What art thou asking of them after all?
2643What have I to do with such fellows?
2643What houndsfoot is it that puts these whims in thy head?
2643What if I should be cut down, as my friends tell me?
2643What if we should have a match at football?
2643What in the name of wonder, are you going about, jumping over my master''s hedges, and running your lines cross his grounds?
2643What is the meaning of all this?
2643What is twenty- two poor years towards the finishing a lawsuit?
2643What occasion hast thou to give up Ecclesdown Castle to John Bull?
2643What shall become of those poor creatures?
2643What shouldst thou think to find old Lewis turned out of his paternal estates and mansion- house of Claypool?
2643What signifies this hundred pounds?
2643What will you give me for this beast?
2643What''s your cause to me when I am hanged?
2643When Esquire South has got possession of his title and honour is not John Bull to be his clothier?
2643When dost thou intend to go to Claypool, Nic.?
2643Where d''ye think they found him at last?
2643Where''s Dick the butler?"
2643Where''s my son John?
2643Who, then, but John ought to put in possession?
2643Why hast thou changed thy attorney?
2643Why must the burden be taken off Frog''s back and laid upon my shoulders?
2643Why wouldst thou not take it when it was offered thee some years ago?
2643Will peace bring such plenty that no gentleman will have occasion to go upon the highway, or break into a house?
2643Will there be never a dying speech of a traitor?
2643Will they accept of a fine, or be satisfied with the pillory and imprisonment, a good round whipping, or burning in the cheek?"
2643Wilt thou buy there some high heads of the newest cut for my daughters?
2643Would you have been contented to have been so used yourself?
2643Would you rather accept this scandalous composition, and trust that old rogue, Lewis Baboon?
2643Wouldst thou have Philip Baboon?"
2643covered in my presence?
2643did I ever imagine I should become thy votary, in so pregnant an instance?
2643had not given them some intoxicating potion, or if old Mother Jenisa was still alive?
2643hast thou ever found us false to thee?
2643they that advised you to refuse, must have believed I intended to give, else why would they not make the experiment?
2643to dispose of my estate, old boy?
2643what a devil''s the meaning of all these trangrams and gimcracks, gentlemen?
2643what am I come to, to be affronted so by my tradesmen?
2643what are thou come to at last?
2643what''s here?
2643where art thou?

30549Can it ever, in the long run, be bad politics to champion any cause which is great and good?
30549Do you want it?"
30549Does America suppose that she also did not learn her lesson?
30549Does a brother not love his sister because he says rude things about her little failings?
30549For the rest, what is there in the country which the living American has not made himself, or which his fathers did not make?
30549How is it possible that the American should think of England as the Englishman thinks of the United States?
30549How is it tempered that she remains all pure womanly at the last?
30549How many New Yorkers have helped to organise a new mining town?"
30549How much less"at a loss"does he anticipate that he would find them?
30549How should they have been otherwise when separated from that world by three thousand miles of ocean?
30549How then, in 1895, could they have had any fear of the United States?
30549However strong Southern_ sentiment_ may still be, what is there of the Southern_ spirit_ even in Richmond or in Louisville?
30549I am well aware that many American readers will say:"What is the man talking of?
30549If Americans were given the option to- day to take more Philippines, would they take them?
30549In Africa?
30549In America?
30549In Asia?
30549In Australia?
30549Is it ambition?
30549Is it anything other than moral cowardice if they do?
30549Is it not reasonable to suppose that he will be no less earnest in the study of Botticelli?
30549Is it ten per cent.--or five per cent.--or two per cent.?
30549Is it to be wondered at that he thinks of Englishmen otherwise than as Englishmen think of him?
30549Is the American people as well educated or as well informed or as well cultivated as the English?
30549It goes farther back than the"Who ever reads an American book?"
30549Just go ahead will you and see to it?"
30549Mary, who painted that picture over there-- the big tree and the blue sky?"
30549Moreover, have not many visitors, though finding much to criticise, complimented them always on their rapidity of thought and action?
30549Mr. Wells, by his own account, went about the country confronting all comers with the questions,"What are you going to make of your future?"
30549Nonsense?
30549Or will the same tendencies persist, so that the currents will cross and again diverge, occupying inverse positions?
30549S----y B----l. And when the Englishman thinks of the possibility of war with the United States, with whom is it that he pictures himself as fighting?
30549The American thinks in round numbers:"What will the whole thing come to?"
30549The two currents, once divergent, now so closely confluent, will meet; but will they continue to flow on in one stream?
30549The words"Can we hold him?"
30549Was he not an Honourable and the son of a Baron and the"real thing"in every way?
30549Was she referring to the fact that we were on a special train composed of private cars, or what?
30549What are the party leaders to do in such a case?
30549What did she mean?
30549What have you got to do?"
30549What then can there be in the fighting strength of the United States, for all the figures that she has to show, to breed in him a suggestion of fear?
30549What would be the result if suddenly the limits of the British Isles were to be miraculously expanded?
30549When, moreover, the cheaper magazines became a possibility, how came it that such publications as_ McClure''s_ and_ The Cosmopolitan_ arose?
30549Where is it that spheres of influence are not delimited?
30549Which is ridiculous, is it not, English reader?
30549Why can not the educated American keep his speech silver and gold for educated ears?
30549Why not then go out and enjoy ourselves?
30549Will America ever oust Great Britain from the position which she holds as the Mother of Sports and the athletic centre of the world?
30549Will not Americans understand with what utter reluctance she has been compelled again and again to take more?
30549Will, who is the portrait of your grandfather by-- the one over there in his robes?"
30549With whom?
30549Would she not be bluntly refused to- day?
30549Would the United States accept the plea?
30549[ 169:1] Are they really the qualities most desirable even in an Englishman to- day?
30549or( what is infinitely worse)"Can he hold us?"
30549said the manufacturer,"but you say that''s what they want out there?
28546''How,''it was said,''did the King wish to raise taxes that had never been voted?
28546''I nourish,''she exclaims,''the viper that poisons me;--to save her they would have taken my life: am I to offer myself as a prey to every villain?
28546''Quid putas-- per talia machinamenta quaeri?
28546And besides, was not the Pope able to do away with the obligation of which he disapproved?
28546And could the policy of James ever have prevailed?
28546And how could Somerset''s plans and enterprises fail to meet with resistance in England itself?
28546And how if the Queen of Scots, when recognised as heir to England, afterwards gave her hand to a Catholic prince hostile to Elizabeth?
28546And how would it be, if a son sprung from the marriage, to inherit both the French and the English throne?
28546And must not satisfaction be given to the Association which was pledged to pursue a new attempt against the Queen''s life even to death?
28546And that too at a moment when the opposition of factions was constantly becoming more active?
28546And was she not a Queen, raised above the law?
28546And yet how can we help recognising manifold coincidences with that conflict of opinions and tendencies in which we are involved at the present day?
28546But had she not herself uttered the decisive word?
28546But how could such comprehensive concessions be expected from the proud Queen?
28546But how then if the same fate befell him?
28546But in all this did King James fall in with the spirit of the English constitution?
28546But must not some means be also thought of, to prevent similar acts of violence for the future?
28546But now how if this were dissolved?
28546But on the other side, was he to return without fulfilling his purpose, and to burden himself with the reproach of not having told the truth?
28546But on whose side would Spain then be found?
28546But to whom could they apply for it if not to their neighbour, just now rising in power, Elizabeth Queen of England?
28546But was it possible for the Roman court to yield in this and to revoke a dispensation, which involved the very substance of its spiritual omnipotence?
28546But was not this a proof of his irresistible authority?
28546But was the man a traitor, who had recommended a policy to which they had been forced to have recourse after such repeated efforts?
28546But were they quietly to acquiesce in their fate?
28546But what a contradiction was involved in the ascendancy which these ideas obtained?
28546But what means did he possess of bestowing help either on the former or on the latter?
28546But what was his decision to be?
28546But what would then have become of the grant of money, which was every day more urgently needed?
28546But where were they to effect a junction with each other and with the Spaniards?
28546But who could advise her to begin her government with a civil war?
28546But would he ever have proceeded to action?
28546But would he, a boy of eleven, be able to take the helm of the proud ship?
28546But, it may be said, was not the Queen in collusion with him?
28546Can the date be right?
28546Could it be the mission of the English to help in consolidating it in his hands?
28546Could men feel astonished that the Danish war was not carried on with the energy which the cause seemed to demand?
28546Could she fail to remark the agitation as to her successor, which occupied all men''s minds, while the reins were slipping from her hands?
28546Did he not know, she asked, that the religion of the rebels was only a cloak for treason?
28546Did he not rather at this point intrude into it the sharpness of his Scottish prejudices?
28546Did he then really, as was imputed to him, try to gain a party among the clergy, and move the Pope to pronounce excommunication against the King?
28546Even among the dependents of the royal house many almost gave up the Prince as lost; for who, they said, could trust the word of the Spaniards?
28546For how could anything else be expected but that the judicial proceedings prepared several years before would now be put in force?
28546For how could he delude himself with the hope that a transitory alliance would prevail over a dynastic antipathy?
28546For how could they let the King of England share in Juana''s immense claims of inheritance?
28546For what could follow from it but open war between the King of England and the Emperor?
28546For why should he be refused what had been secured to his predecessors during a century and a half?
28546Had he deserved his fate at her hands?
28546Had the Pope the right to dispense with the laws of Scripture or had he not?
28546How could her counsellors, who always preferred direct negociation with Spain, have accepted them?
28546How could men have helped thinking that King James would resolutely take the inheritance of his grandsons under his protection?
28546How could the rise of popular elements fail to call forth a kindred effort also among the lower classes?
28546How could they ever become fused into one nation if the one was always plotting the destruction of the other?
28546How could they fail, with some effort, in occupying the Isthmus of Panama?
28546How could they make laws who were themselves beyond the pale of law?
28546How should one power really seek the permanent advantage of another?
28546How were they to accept its resolutions?
28546If he accepted the petition of the Commons, did he surrender for ever the right of ordering imprisonment without assigning a cause?
28546It may be that her grief was lightened by a secret satisfaction: who would absolutely deny it?
28546It was reported that Innocent IV was heard to say,''Is not the King of England my vassal, my servant?
28546Might he not annul unjust sentences of excommunication?
28546Might not the King, as a religious and pious magistrate, have the power of summoning General Assemblies?
28546On the contrary he had additional revenues from Scotland; for what reason did he require extraordinary subsidies?
28546Or could any one, they asked, grant what he did not possess?
28546So it stands written in her letters: it is undeniable: but was that really her last and well- considered word?
28546The Queen inquires for instance, What is friendship?
28546The answer of the Spaniards was evasive: how could it have been otherwise?
28546They argued that their government did not allow this even to all its own subjects; how then could foreigners be admitted to a share in it?
28546This time too Elizabeth dismissed the hostile ambassador; but how could she flatter herself with having thus exorcised the threatening elements?
28546To the peaceful Provincials, if they could indeed gird on the sword, or to the old companions in arms of the Romans?
28546Was Elizabeth to join Mary in combating them?
28546Was he to accept the proposal of the Commons, and to content himself with a general reservation of his prerogative?
28546Was he to allow it to be again endangered by the ceaseless ebb and flow of popular opinion?
28546Was it from weakness and connivance, or was it from policy?
28546Was it not in its own nature already a failure?
28546Was it not to be expected that demands should call forth counter- demands?
28546Was it to be dropped in England alone?
28546Was not her legitimacy dependent on the invalidity of her father''s marriage with his brother''s widow?
28546Was not this altogether contrary to the form of government of the country?
28546Was there really any foundation for what men then said, that the King thought it better that his foe should be in the country rather than out of it?
28546Was what had been always held for heresy no longer to merit this name because it was avowed by the ruling powers?
28546Were the Catholic- Spanish tendencies of Elizabeth''s predecessor, Queen Mary Tudor, so completely reproduced in her?
28546Were the men equal to the emergency, or were not circumstances stronger than they?
28546Were they now to submit themselves to a King who like her was a schismatic?
28546Were they, like the laity, virtually to recognise him as their Head?
28546What could the Emperor do with an English minister who was not in a condition to support warlike enterprises properly?
28546What importance could be attached to such an insignificant sum in prospect of so tremendous an undertaking as a war against Spain?
28546What might have come of it, if a prince of this house should now obtain rule over a part of the island itself?
28546What was likely to happen if they opposed the forces which Ralegh landed to search for the gold mines which he had formerly seen there?
28546What was the reason of this?
28546What would happen if France lent her aid in such an enterprise?
28546What would there have been at all to fear at other times from a princess under strong custody and cut off from all the world?
28546When now the Roman rule over the island and the surrounding seas came to an end, to whom could it pass?
28546While preparing to attack the Emperor and the League did he intend to do anything more than make a demonstration against Spain?
28546Who could avoid seeing its decisive significance for the age?
28546Who could cleanse them from the stain that clove to them?
28546Who could have said, so long as things remained in the path thus once entered upon, whither this would lead?
28546Who does not know the sonnets and the love- intoxicated letters she is believed to have addressed to him?
28546Who does not, in reading this, feel himself in a sphere of wild romance?
28546Who will hold women of this character strictly to what stands in their letters?
28546Who would not have been sensible of this?
28546Who would not have felt himself distressed and threatened?
28546Who would take it on himself to attack her?
28546Why should it not be possible for something similar to happen in England also?
28546Would he trust men who had so often betrayed him?
28546Would not the Queen''s chapel, they asked, now serve to unite the Catholics of England; or would they be forbidden to hear mass there?
28546Would not the nobles, some from reverence for the supreme Pontiff''s authority, others from a sense of religious obligation, yield to this alliance?
28546Would that power pledge itself to fight to the end against every one, even against the Emperor, in behalf of the treaty when concluded?
28546[ 157] And if the affair had been undertaken in this manner, who could say that it might not have succeeded?
28546[ 192] How then if a defeat was sustained in the open field?
28546[ 430] And how was even as much as this to be obtained from the court of Vienna?
28546[ 478] His opponents thought that he was at the root of all previous misfortunes; and what might they not still expect from him?
28546[ 485] And who shall say that success would have been impossible?
28546[ 494] But must it not have been irritating to Parliament that the very men were promoted about whom it had complained?
28546was England to be ruled by a viceroy?
28546what could the English do with an ally who appropriated to himself exclusively the advantages of the victory they had won?
4195''How long,''quoth Sir Anthonie,''hast thou kept this mill?''

40290A woman put out her head and all above her middle, and she said,''What business hast thou to be troubling this tulman in which I make my dwelling?''
40290And her parting injunction was to be sure and have the maidens"weel cöst about"(?
40290Are they simply a poetical transfiguration of finny forms of the flood?
40290At another place[222] the dialogue goes thus:--"''Where hast thou come from, Cael?''

40290It is thus described by a local gillie:--"Coming up the Ulnach, sir, you saw a corrie away to the left?

40290Or, on the contrary, although raised for tombs, were they afterwards used as habitations?...
40290Ought"Fairies,"then, to be identified with the"Feens"and"Pechts"of history and tradition?
40290The question to be decided is, How far is tradition to be trusted?
40290Then Einar said:''What is that I see upon the Isle of Ronaldsha?

21091 Did they intend to hold and to act together? 21091 Did they systematically communicate? 21091 Do great things become to great men from the force of habit, what their ordinary cares are to ordinary persons?'' 21091 Do n''t you think the time has come when you might deign to be magnanimous?

21091 He added,''I think Sidney said more last night than he intended, did he not?'' 21091 He asked: How could he bring himself to fight for the Turks? 21091 He asks,''What is the answer to this? 21091 He quoted his sonnet on the contested election[ what sonnet is this? 21091 He should try me in opposition to Lord Stanley, and did Lord Stanley complain? 21091 His illustrious leader Peel, he said, did indeed look for his revenge; but for what revenge did he look? 21091 How are we to seek an answer to the same question in the history of Mr. Gladstone? 21091 How can I most surely floor him?'' 21091 How could I, under these circumstances, say, I will have nothing to do with you, and be the one remaining Ishmael in the House of Commons? 21091 How could the country go on with a democratic civil service by the side of an aristocratic legislature? 21091 How do you do? 21091 How much were the bills of the chancellor whom this figure shocks? 21091 How then could Aberdeen expect that Mr. Gladstone should abandon the set and avowed purpose with which he had come flaming and resolved to England? 21091 How was Lady Glynne''s jointure( £2500) to be paid? 21091 How was Sir Stephen to be supported? 21091 I answered,''You mean as to one particular expression or sentence?'' 21091 I do not think that you would be very sorrowful? 21091 I have been growing, that is certain; in good or evil? 21091 I inquired( 1) whether Derby mentioned Graham? 21091 I said to him,''Is that possible? 21091 I said,''Are you not building houses of cards? 21091 I simply made my acknowledgments in terms of the common kind, upon which he went on to ask me what in my view was to happen next? 21091 If he gave credit to Mr. Gladstone for being sincere in 1841, 1842, and 1846, why should not Mr. Gladstone give the same credit to him? 21091 In face of pleas so wretched for a prolongation of a war to which he had assented on other grounds, was he bound to silence? 21091 In what way can the first resignation be justified on grounds which do not require a second?'' 21091 Is he to impose his own conscience on the state? 21091 Is it morally just or politically expedient to keep down the industry and genius of the artisan, to blast his rising hopes, to quell his spirit? 21091 Is it necessary to consider now?'' 21091 Is the rule one and the same for individual and for state? 21091 Is this the scene, or were these the men, for the triumphs of the barren rhetorician and the sophist, whose words have no true relation to the facts? 21091 Jamne joci lususque sonant? 21091 Lord Stanley said to Peel,It is twelve, shall I follow him?
21091Lumen ut insolitâ triste tumescat aquâ?
21091MR. GLADSTONE AND HIS GROUP Connected with all this arose a geographical question-- in what quarter of the House were the Peelites to sit?
21091Mais pourquoi faire des lois pires que les moeurs?
21091May not this after all be found to be the case in the House of Commons as well as in many constituencies?...
21091May not this be another legitimate and measured step in the same direction?
21091Might I trust to your kindness to have some cards put in the place for us before prayers?''
21091Mr. Gladstone, being about to reply in debate, turned to his chief and said:''Shall I be short and concise?''
21091Now it struck me to inquire of myself, does the duke know the feelings I happen to entertain towards Mr. Canning?
21091On the former day he said,''Is there anyone else to invite?''
21091One man said to me,''What, vote for Lord Norreys?
21091Or can we accurately describe him as having in any department of life, thought, knowledge, feeling, been precocious?
21091Shall I ever dare to make out a counterpart?
21091Singula prà ¦ teriens det rapiatve dies?
21091Sir, do we not all know that the king at that time had neither friends nor wealth?...
21091So long the church will need parliamentary defence, but in what form?
21091The Peelite leaders therefore had no other choice than to take their seats below the gangway, but on which side?
21091The debater does not ask,''Is this true?''
21091The man looked hard at me and said these very words,''Damn all foreign countries, what has old England to do with foreign countries?''
21091The man who listening to his adversary asks of his contention,''Is this true?''
21091Then by what argument can they repel, by what pretence can they evade the duty?''
21091Then he said,''Well, I think our friend Peel went rather far last night about Cobden, did he not?''
21091Then it is asked, Is he honest?
21091This is a most serious event, and at once raises the question, Are we to go into it?
21091This was not enough to outnumber the phalanx of their various opponents combined, but was it possible that the phalanx should combine?
21091Upon looking back I am sorry to think how much I partook in the excitement that prevailed; but how could it be otherwise in so extraordinary a case?
21091Was I right?...
21091Was Mr. Gladstone right in his early notion of himself as a slow moving mind?
21091Was the Aberdeen cabinet without Lord Aberdeen one in which I could place confidence?
21091Was the church a purely human creation, changing with time and circumstance, like all the other creations of the heart and brain and will of man?
21091Was there no difference between a protector and a sovereign?
21091We may often ask for ourselves and others: How many of a man''s days does he really live?
21091Were they a party?
21091Were they not celebrating the obsequies of an obnoxious policy?
21091What is the church of England?
21091What matters it?
21091What was a protectorate, and what the rights of the protector?
21091What was the footing on which patron and member were to stand?
21091What was the nature of his relations with other members of the Peel government who had also been in the cabinet of Lord Aberdeen?
21091What would this atrocious ministry have said had the appeal to the voice of the people, which they now quote as their authority, been made in 1829?
21091What, they cried, did the treaty of 1815 mean by describing the Ionian state as free and independent?
21091Whatever your present intentions may be, can it be done?''
21091When shall I see his like?
21091When shall we learn wisdom?
21091Where could general mental strength be better tested?
21091Where was the official or appointed teacher all this time?
21091Who could deny that these were changes of magnitude settled in peaceful times by a parliament unreformed?
21091Who, I would ask, conducted the correspondence of the government office with reference to that important question?
21091Why did we go out?
21091Why do you return me to parliament?
21091Why not call things by their right names?
21091Why should he, then, refuse a position that Fox had accepted?
21091Why then, cried the_ Times_, does he omit all comment on the church which is the main and direct agent in this atrocious instruction?
21091Why was it more of a usurpation for the pope to make a new Archbishop of Westminster, than to administer London by the old form of vicars apostolic?
21091Will he ever be the bearer of evil thoughts to any mind?
21091Will you forgive me if I write to you on this matter?
21091Will you unite yourself with what must be, from the beginning, an inevitable failure?
21091Would it be true to say that, compared with Pitt, for instance, he ripened slowly?
21091Would not this tend to abridge the member''s independence?
21091Would the success of Russian designs at that day mean anything better than the transfer of the miserable Christian races to the yoke of a new master?
21091[ 269]''Lord John Russell came and said to me,''says Mr. Gladstone,''"What will you do?"
21091[ 345] H. M. seeming to agree in my main position, as did the Prince, asked me: But when will parliament return to that state?

44594_ Query, what was Lady Lambert''s name?
42975( Surely this is more suggestive of Eve than of the serpent?)
42975Again, what was that contract?
42975But allowing that it occurred on the rolls, was it a genuine transaction or was it a facetious invention of the manor clerk?
42975John Enot, archdeacon of Buckingham in the fifteenth century, complained tearfully that one Thomas Coneloye( was he a lawless Irish Connelly?)
42975The first question is, is this a genuine extract from the rolls?
43470And what for should I give it away when we''ll be wanting it ourselves maybe?
43470Does it pain you?
43470Well, my man; where are you hurt?
43470What regiment?
43470Does it not make one creep to think of it?
43470Dr. W. stopped and said to his companion:"Did you see that?
43470No man has complained, no man has asked"Why?"
43470People began to ask anxiously what next?
43470yes; why not?"
40871Do you know,said he to Mr. Ferguson,"what is shown on board the commander- in- chief?
40871I hope,said Nelson,"none of our ships have struck?"
40871My old friend, Colonel Benbow,said he,"what do you here?"
40871Should we both fall, Josiah,said he,"what would become of your poor mother?
40871Then marched they toward the road, whereinto they entered softly, where were five warders, whom one of them asked, saying, who was there? 40871 Well, Hardy,"said Nelson,"how goes the day with us?"
40871What,said he in his answer,"has poor Horatio, who is so weak, done, that he above all the rest should be sent to rough it out at sea?
40871Who is that?
40871''What''s that to you, sir?''
40871But their astonishment may be imagined, when, on coming along side, they were hailed in good English with--"Won''t you heave us a rope now?"
40871But who can be presumptuously sure of his own judgment?
40871He brought an inquiry from the prince, What was the object of Nelson''s note?
40871He had scarcely landed before the officers of the revenue inquired of his servant what he had in his sack?
40871How can it be avoided?
40871In answer to the question,"Who are you?"
40871Shall we give them battle?"
40871The admiral commanded the French captain on board him, and asked him if he was willing to lay down his sword?
40871Then said Sonnings angrily,"What have you to do with any matters of mine?
40871Then, shrugging up his shoulders, he repeated the words--"Leave off action?
40871Think ye my attendance in these seas to be in vain, or my person to no purpose?
40871What man can devise to save it?
40871What satisfaction can I receive from the liberty to crawl a few years longer on the earth with the infamous load of a pardon at my back?
40871Where are your bills of lading, your letters, passports, and the chief of your men?
40871Who could stand the force of such general congratulations?
40871Why stand ye aloof off?

43701But should he be forgotten?
43701He looked at me for a few moments in evident surprise, and said,"Is it to be larger than New York?"
43701He replied,"So I have; where will it come?"
43701He replied,"What is that?
43701Her Majesty noticed it at once, and exclaimed,"Where is the cushion?"
43701How comes it that this multitude of peoples, these descendants of martial races, live together in peace and amity?
43701I rang the bell and the hall porter came in; I said,"What is that?"
43701What would you do if you had to make a canal to Manchester?"
30710; but the question answered, satisfactorily or unsatisfactorily, was,Is there a remedy?"
30710Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? 30710 --is this a mockery? 30710 A mockery? 30710 And if the question were asked-- When does monarchical or constitutional England first distinctively pass into Imperial Britain? 30710 And in their effect upon the national consciousness of Britain have these incidents followed any law traceable in other nations or empires? 30710 And in what cause have we died?
30710And knowledge-- of what avail is knowledge?--or to scan the abysses of space and search the depths of time?
30710And that army of ours which day by day advances not less irresistibly across the veldt of Africa, what does that army portend?
30710And that steed, is it not nearing England now?
30710And the campaigns of Napoleon, republican, consular, imperial?
30710And those moments of serenest peace, when the desire of the heart is one with the desire of the world- soul, are not these attained by conflict?
30710And to the Netherlands what does that army bring?
30710And what is its place in the life- history of a State considered as an entity, an organic unity, distinct from the unities which compose it?
30710And what is the faith of Algernon Sidney?
30710And who shall affirm from what branch of the stock the architects of the sky- searching cathedrals sprang?
30710Both ponder the question,"How could the disaster have been averted?
30710But another aspect of the question concerns us here-- What is War in itself and by itself?
30710But of England and the Teutonic race what shall one say?
30710But to arraign the fountain and the end of the high action because of this baser alloy?
30710CONTENTS PART I THE TESTIMONY OF THE PAST LECTURE I SECTION WHAT IS IMPERIALISM?
30710Consider in contrast with these empires the question-- What is the distinction in this phase of human life of the Empire of Britain, of its history?
30710Does not this vault then, arching above us, appear but as a vast amphitheatre?
30710Doubt, contrition of soul, and the other modes of spiritual_ agonia_, are not these equivalent with the life, not death, of the soul?
30710Even a partial solution of this problem requires a consideration of the question"What is War?"
30710Fixed in her resolve, the will of God behind her, whither is her immediate course?
30710For the sake of such emotional excitement or parade as are now by smokeless powder, maxims, long- range rifles, and machine guns abolished?
30710For what does the fall of Rome mean, and what are its relations to this Empire of Britain?
30710From what causes and by the operation of what laws has the great disillusion fallen upon the heart of Europe?
30710Given that death is nothing, and the decline of empires but a change of form, will this empire of Imperial Britain also decline and fall?
30710Has Count Tolstoi a campaign to narrate, or a battle, say the Borodino, to describe?
30710Has all the blood from Lodi and Arcola to Austerlitz and the Borodino been shed in vain?
30710Has he the enigma of modern times to solve, Napoleon I?
30710Has not the present war given a harvest of instances?
30710How could the decline of Rome have been stayed?"
30710How is it related to the Divine?
30710How is this ideal of the Imperialistic State related to that from which all States originally derive?
30710How many Franks, one asks, followed the red banner of the Bastard to Senlac, or, leaning on their shields, watched the coronation at Westminster?
30710How shall England, conqueror of those monarchs at Creçy and on other fields, reverence Rome, the dependent of a defeated antagonist?
30710How shall it cease?
30710How shall its bounds be made secure against encroachment, its own shores from coalesced foes?
30710How shall the Eternal come or the Infinite be far off?
30710How shall the justice of God be reconciled with the destiny He assigns to the souls of men?
30710How then does Tolstoi regard War?
30710I now spoke with myself thus--''O my soul, how long wilt thou continue to take pleasure in sin?
30710If our forefathers found in this the true path, why should we seek another?
30710In religion itself have we not similar variety of expression?
30710In that final solitude what are pomp and circumstance to the heart?
30710Is it not the procession of the gladiators and the amphitheatre of Rome?
30710Is it possible to trace the process by which it has emerged?
30710Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new?
30710Is there in human history a document more blasting to the reputation for political wisdom or foresight of him who penned it?
30710It is the star of the future and the memory of Vergniaud''s phrase,"Posterity?

30710THE PLACE OF WAR IN WORLD- HISTORY The question"What is War?"
30710THE UNCONSCIOUS AND THE CONSCIOUS IN HISTORY What is the nature of this Consciousness?
30710The Girondinist queen climbing the scaffold, not less a lover of love and of life than Marie Antoinette-- what nerves her?
30710The narrow space of the path in front of her that is discernible even dimly-- whither does it tend or appear to tend?
30710The question asked was,"Is there a law regulating the fall of empires?
30710The question resolves itself into two parts-- in what does the youth of a race or of an empire consist?
30710The question,"What is History?"
30710The second drama is named_ Ignatius Loyola_; the theme is not less absorbing--"Art thou then so sure of the truth and of thy sincerity, O my brother?"
30710These are the forces contending against each other on the sterile veldt; this is the first act of the drama whose_ dénouement_--who dare foretell?
30710Thus if the question were asked, With what period in the history of Rome does the present age correspond?
30710To impeach on this account all the valour, all the wisdom long approved?
30710To the brooding soul of the hermit, as to that of the warrior of Jehovah, what is earth, what are the shapes of time?
30710WHAT IS MEANT BY THE"FALL OF AN EMPIRE"?
30710WHAT IS MEANT BY THE"FALL OF AN EMPIRE"?
30710War may change its shape, the struggle here intensifying, there abating; it may be uplifted by ever loftier purposes and nobler causes-- but cease?
30710Was machst du an der Welt?
30710Was there then no"zone of death"between the armies at Eyiau or at Gravelotte?
30710We are in the thick of the deed-- how are we to judge it?
30710Well might men ask themselves: Has then Voltaire lived in vain, and the Girondins died in vain?
30710What characteristic, then, common to the whole Teutonic race, does this Empire of Britain represent?
30710What distant generation shall behold_ that_ curtain?
30710What have we to do with posterity?
30710What is its historical basis?
30710What is its historical significance compared with the wars of the past, what is the presage of this great war-- if it be a great war-- for the future?
30710What is the ideal powerful enough to make the hazard of a nation''s death preferable to the abandonment of that ideal?
30710What to me are Mondays and Tuesdays?
30710What tragedy of a lost leader equals this of Napoleon?
30710What were the armies of Napoleon and the ruin of Europe''s dream to Háfiz and Sádi, and to the calm of the trackless centuries far behind?
30710What, then, are the principles at issue in the present war?
30710Where in the history of England, in the life of England as a State, does this energy, exalted by the hour of tragic vision, manifest itself?
30710Which of the multifarious kingdoms and duchies could form the centre of a new union, federal or imperial?
30710Whither are vanished the glorious hopes with which the century opened?
30710Whither is this impulse to be directed?
30710Whither then shall we turn for an explanation of his arraignment of war?
30710Who are the founders of England, of Imperial Britain?
30710Who can confront this unappalled?
30710Who founded the Roman State?
30710Who that has read the historian of Alva can forget the march of his army through the summer months some three hundred and thirty years ago?
30710Why shapest thou the world?
30710Will War then never cease?
30710Will the form it now enshrines pass away, as the forms of Persia, Rome, the Empire of Akbar, have passed away?
30710Will universal peace be for ever but a dream?
30710Wondrous indeed is man''s course across the earth, and with what shall the works of his soul be compared?
30710Would one discover the secret at the close of the century of the alliance of Russia and France, freedom''s forlorn hope when the century began?
30710Would you see the end of Rome as in a figure darkly?
30710Yet what is Carlyle''s judgment upon war?
30710[ 2] Was machst du an der Welt?
30710[ 5] Napoleon was fighting for a dead ideal with the strength of the men who had overthrown that ideal-- how should he prosper?

39612Can it be that some immense bribe was given, or promised, to Guy Fawkes for the excessively dangerous part which he was to play in the drama?
39612Catesby answered,''Why were we commanded before to keep out one that was not a Catholic, and now may not exclude him?''
39612Catesby himself had certainly lost money, and a great deal of money; but how?
39612Could he call himself a man if he trembled at the very thought of bloodshed?
39612Could he have induced Manners to come to his rooms by no other attraction than a game of cards, which he had no intention of playing?
39612Did he hesitate to go to Coughton through fear of Catesby, or was he afraid to trust himself in the presence of his wife?
39612Does any such excuse exist for the Gunpowder Plot?
39612Does... know him?"
39612Had not Watson given King''s evidence?
39612Had not foreign invasion been implored by Catholics?
39612Had they not intended"the Lady Arabella"as a substitute for his own Royal Majesty upon the throne?
39612Has he not played cards with my husband, and played well too, which is impossible for those not accustomed to the game?
39612If he were really going to join the army in the Low Countries, why these long delays?
39612If there be any matter in hand, doth Mr Walley know of it?"
39612Let us hope that the game of cards diverted such thoughts; yet who could blame him if, with such matters on his mind, he forgot to follow suit?
39612Need he have put himself to the trouble of apologising to Father Gerard for revealing that he was a Catholic?
39612Or was the finding of a priest so difficult a thing just then as to make a wish to attempt it absurd?
39612Was he alone, among the most zealous Catholic laymen of England, to show the white feather in a time of peril?
39612Was it a violent attempt made on the spur of the moment, or was it the result of lengthy, deliberate, and anxious forethought?
39612Was it necessary on his arrival there to ask him to await that of guests who were not coming, and had never been invited?
39612Was it not sufficient consolation to him to reflect upon his good fortune in this respect?
39612Was there not something biblical and appropriate, again, in destroying the enemies of the Lord with fire?
39612Were the Catholics to rise and invade the houses of parliament with drawn sabres?
39612What became of it?

40465Did I know the states of Indiana?"
40465Does it obtain in Holland?"
40465Has your pulse ever quickened at sight of an egg you could call your own?
40465He suspects her, and what good woman will stand being suspected by her husband without resentment?
40465He told us we could and then he said,"Were ye thinkin''of hirin''a car, sir?"
40465How''s it goin''?"
40465I felt that it must be exceptional, and said to the waiter at lunch,"I suppose it''s unusual to have such weather as this?"
40465I said to Massenger,"How about tipping?
40465If one has visions why not see them?
40465Irishmen?
40465Is n''t the pope the head of the church?"
40465Is two shillin''s apiece right?"
40465No chops, and fried ham and buckwheat cakes and oranges and grapefruit and hot rolls?
40465The thought came into my head, What a model for"An Irish Beauty,"just as one of the others, who had no claim to beauty, said,"Take me picture?"
40465Then to me,"Would you like to walk in the garden?"
40465There''s arl kinds of good people----""Is Mr. W---- a Protestant?"
40465To Lafayette( with as French an accent as you''d wish) and was I ever there?
40465What eyes have ye?
40465What good had the tramp''s blessing done me?
40465What have you with pictures of women?"
40465What more do you want?
40465What sort of a hotel is this for an American?
40465When I show my views to visitors they will say,"And did n''t you go to the Giant''s Causeway?"
40465Who is she?"
40465Why shudden''t there be a tax on bachelors?
40465Why tell him that the woods were full of incubators in America?
40465Will the W. C. T. U. kindly make a note of this?
40465Would Edward Everett Hale view a race from a picket fence?
40465Would our traveler''s togs worthily represent our country?
40465You do n''t hand a man a glass of wine or even an innocuous apple in silence: you say,"Here''s looking at you,"or,"Have an apple?"
40465no steak?
40522And so,said Sir Thomas,"you would really like to escape from this life of slavery?"
40522And what of my lord? 40522 And what of the King and the brave Queen Margaret?"
40522And who are you, my brave fellow?
40522And you would not fear the Pope''s excommunication, which would assuredly follow?
40522Are the tidings good or evil?
40522But if anyone were to put the means of escape in your hands, would you be sufficiently daring to make the attempt?
40522Do you know him?
40522Do you often walk in this direction?
40522Has the Mayor seen it?
40522Have you had any further tidings, sir,inquired the younger Clifford,"of the movements of Richard of York?"
40522How shall I know the King, for I shall wish to pay due respect to him?
40522May I be allowed to ask who you may be,continued Sir William,"who are hunting in the King''s chase?"
40522Now then, Mother Laycock,shouted Heber,"when is this ale coming?"
40522Now, Mistress Laycock, you know I am a good customer, and always pay in the long run; is this ale forthcoming?
40522Now, do you recognise the king?
40522Pray, Sir John, by what authority do you act thus disloyally?
40522Sir William Ingleby?
40522The King, whom Heaven preserve, then is present in the chase?
40522The caitiff,exclaimed Lady Wake,"what does he want down here?
40522What do the stars reveal?
40522What mean you by''not in the engagement''? 40522 What part of Anglia come they from?"
40522What sport have you had this morning, husband mine?
40522What want you, good people?
40522What, are you afraid of encountering an army led by a woman? 40522 What, then, will be the effect upon the adherents of the House of Lancaster?
40522Whence comest thou, Sir Knight, and what are thy tidings?
40522Who but you advised the King that not a penny should be abated?
40522Who is he?
40522Why not escape, then, and fling off the chains that gall you?
40522_ Clifford._--What seest thou in me, York? 40522 ; or, Boston in the Colonial Times; by Elias Nason, M.A.,who, in the preface, says--"Who was Sir C. H. Frankland?
40522Are you assured that this fate is inevitable?"
40522At first they thought of flight; but where to go?
40522Do you care to commune with Nature?
40522Fled he too?
40522I suppose executions, attainders, and confiscations?"
40522I suppose there is no hope of retrieval on the part of Queen Margaret?"
40522In 1350, or thereabouts, Sir Thomas de Ingilby, Justice of the Common Pleas, married Catherine of Luerne, daughter and heiress of Bernard(?)
40522Peter?"
40522Surely he, of all men, would not stand aloof on such an occasion?"
40522The executioners replied,"Who are you, and what madness prompts you that you have the audacity to impede the execution of the King''s justice?"
40522To- day is ours; what do we fear?
40522Was he indeed buried under the ruins of Lisbon at the time of the great earthquake?
40522Was he rescued therefrom by the efforts of a poor girl, named Agnes Surriage, and did he afterwards make her his wife?"
40522Was there ever such a collector of the port of Boston?
40522Who is their King?"
40522Why dost thou pause?
40522can you be fit to wear the crown of England, who shut yourself up in a castle against a woman?"
40522is he dead?
40522or why was he absent?"
40522said the Abbot, as he entered the room soon after,"how fares it with my daughter?"
44909True it is, my lady, and full well I know it, but what can I do? 44909 And if he did none of these things, why does that forge pay a yearly fine to the Crown to this day for compounding a felony? 44909 If the Board School system is turning out a failure for our little peasants, what can we say for it when it claims the gipsy? 44909 Where does it lie? 44909 Why should he not be? 41250 And what age would you take_ me_ for?"
41250And what are you doing up here yourself, Shan?
41250And what''s that?
41250And would you answer me this, gaffer?
41250Him, is it?
41250Is it near dark?
41250Is there water near it?
41250Oh,said he,"is it so much as that?
41250So it''s you, Shan?
41250Stuff a what?
41250What time is that?
41250What time o''day is it?
41250When was that, Shan?
41250Who was that?
41250Who''s that old fellow?
41250Why is it when a man''s soul is in his body, and he lusty and well, you think nothing of kicking him about as you would an old cast shoe? 41250 You do n''t seem to be popular with the dogs?"
41250You have the Irish?
41250_ Cad a- chlog é anois?_I ask one of the boys.
41250A ROANY BUSH"Do you see that bush over there?"
41250And do you be in Donegal often?"
41250And skipping- stones?
41250Another woman comes out of a shop with a crying child in her arms, and shouts at him:"Will you go away, then?
41250As I approached the village I met an old woman-- I knew she was old by her voice-- who said to me:"Is n''t it a fine evening, that?"
41250Can we live every day with these aspiring things, and not love beauty?
41250Did I say one ceases to trouble about time?
41250Did you ever hear that?"
41250Do many people go mad here?
41250I ask him in English"where he comes from,""who is his father,""who is his mother,""where he lives?"
41250I asked him had he ever read"The Colloquy of the Two Sages(1)"?
41250Is not a man and his passions as divine and turbulent as anything under the sun?
41250Is not the comparison apter than one thinks?
41250Looking for the dew- snail?
41250One of them turns back and shouts after me:"Would you happen to have a match on you, gaffer?"
41250PÚCA- PILES"What are these?"
41250THE DARKNESS AND THE TIDE"What time o''day is it?"
41250THE QUEST Where am I going?
41250Then with a quaint grimace:"What are_ you_ doing up here?"
41250WATER AND SLÁN- LUS What is more beautiful than water falling, or a spray of_ slán- lus_ with its flowers?
41250Was he coughing at you?
41250We were talking for some time when he said:"You''re a young man, by the looks of you?"
41250Would you answer me that, gaffer?"
42201And are you content that I should allot you a position in the wall?
42201And yet,said the mason,"you declare you will not be satisfied to remain under constraint?
42201Did you ever hear of the adage,''a rolling stone gathers no moss?''
42201Is that your final decision?
42201Pray, what do you take yourself to be?
42201That you can not do, my friend,returned the mason:"do n''t you see that the corner- stones are already in their places?"
42201''How the d---- could I get past your infernal dogs?''
42201''It''s Mr M----; do n''t ye know his voice?
42201''Who''s there?''
42201Could the same air be always used for breathing?
42201Do you think that I can stoop to fill the office of a mere wedge?"
42201How can you be so blind as not to see that we are all stones alike, and all therefore equal?"
42201How do fishes manage living in water in place of air?
42201How much is there of it?
42201I roared out,''what are you at?
42201I was stunned by the report, and remained standing, until roused by one of the men asking me''was I shot?''
42201So, my good friend, you wish to have room to roll about in-- eh?"
42201When the Welshman had played some tunes before the colonel, which he did very well, the nobleman asked him, had he ever heard so sweet a finger?
42201Who are you?''
42201Who''s there?''
42201Will you be condescending enough to define your prerogatives?
42201Will you go into the wall, or shall I deposit you again on the ground?"
33883''Are you quite sure?'' 33883 ''Is your father worse?''
33883Are ye growin''a moustache on the top o''your heid?
33883But do n''t you know, my dear fellow,they exclaimed,"that it is only by means of a pickaxe that you can get a joke into the skull of a Scotchman?"
33883But your wood is damp,she exclaimed;"how can ye expect it to burn?
33883But, minister, have you not often told us that we ought to love our enemies?
33883But,I added,"do you never use your violin?"
33883Can I assist you, my dear?
33883Could n''t you suggest me something to say?
33883Do n''t you hear anything?
33883Do you mean to say you have a Literary Society here?
33883Do you take your porridge after your meat?
33883Have you anything on your mind, Donald? 33883 His name, what is his name?"
33883How shall I know the stone? 33883 Is it because there are no Jews in Aberdeen?"
33883Is this your first visit to Scotland?
33883It is a manufacturing town, I suppose?
33883It may be, I dinna say no; but wha''ll gie me back my Janet?
33883Janet,he says,"it must be verra sad to lie on your death bed and hae no ane to houd your han''in your last moments?"
33883Janet,says Jamie, without accompanying his words with the slightest chalorous movement,"wad ye be that woman I was speakin''of?"
33883May I assist you to a slice of ham?
33883Nonsense,said my host kissing his old nurse,"who told you that?
33883Oh, my poor Janet,he lamented,"why have ye left me?
33883Really?
33883Shall I dance?
33883Shall I preach?
33883Shall I sing?
33883Well then?
33883Well,I said,"what have you been up to in this country?
33883Were you ever wounded, yourself?
33883What do you think of the illiterate parvenus that are for ever rattling their money bags? 33883 What do you want the evening for?"
33883What is it?
33883What is the number of your room, sir?
33883What mysterious stone?
33883What would I do? 33883 What would I do?"
33883What, noo, at once?
33883Which do you like best, England or Scotland?
33883Who could hope to compete with them?
33883Who is the lady?
33883Why are you going?
33883Why dinna ye ask her, Jamie?

33883A Scotchman, who looked ill at ease, whispered in my friend''s ear:"What must I do?"
33883After all, what had I done to draw down such thunders?
33883Again, why do you find in almost all the factories of Great Britain that the foreman is Scotch?
33883And for dinner?
33883And for supper?
33883And true enough,"tak''awa''Aberdeen, and twal''miles round, and faar are ye?"
33883And, indeed, what is there to be done in Glasgow but work?
33883As who should say:"Enough of that; you are a man, are you not?
33883But how can one speak of Scotland without devoting a few words to Robert Burns?
33883But what did Wellington do for Scotland?
33883But what is this in comparison with that which still goes on in Ireland in our day?
33883But whom do we find there?
33883But why destroy the edifice?
33883Can he mean it?
33883Could not you use this one and worship God in it after our own manner?"
33883D''ye think I might take one, my bonnie lass?"
33883Did I exaggerate when I told you the Scotch expect to find places specially reserved for them in Heaven?
33883Did he say this to pass on to a neighbour that which seemed to him a disgrace to his own country?

33883He has a way of giving you your change which seems to say,"Is it the full change you expect?"
33883Here is a specimen of Scotch conversation, given by Dr. Ramsay: A Scot, feeling the warp of a plaid hanging at a tailor''s door, enquires:"Oo?"
33883How can they know if they are really good sailors before they have encountered a storm?
33883How can two affianced people know each other, even if for years they try ever so hard?
33883How hope to give a description of the Scotch Sabbath?
33883How is that?"
33883I am quite willing to admit that Wellington did exist, and that he rendered his country service; but is that a reason for turning him into a bore?
33883I like the idea of thanking Heaven for its favours, but why the frown?
33883I wad like to ken whether there''ll be whisky in heaven?"
33883If a man struck you on the right cheek, now what would you do?"
33883In a country so Christian, so philanthropic, can it be that childhood is abandoned thus?
33883Is it the climate that so stirs the Scotch up to action?
33883Is there any question you would like to ask me?"
33883Is this due to chance?
33883It seems impossible to beat that; but what do you think of the following, which at all events runs it close?
33883Let me trace you out a programme?"
33883Modest, is it not?
33883My host arms himself with his carving knife and fork and, without relaxing a muscle of his face, says to me:"Can I assist you to a little beef?"
33883Now, to come at once to the sense of the matter, will you allow me for once-- for once only-- to pay myself a compliment that I think I well deserve?
33883Pointing with his finger to one of the graves, this lover says:"My folk lie there, Mary; wad ye like to lie there?"
33883The syllable?
33883These are two who will not have much to fear on the Day of Judgment-- eh?"

40211How can we reason, but from what we know?
40211And what but the spirit of silence will conciliate the Quakers?
40211And would such be a Church of Christ?
40211Are not the ministers of that Church afraid of every new discovery in science?
40211But what is God?
40211Can any man reasonably say, that we have yet passed the superstitious state?
40211Can it be a Church of Christ?
40211Do we know what a Church of Christ is in reality?
40211First.--What is now the Church?
40211How can you furnish spirit and noise enough for the Unknown Tongues of the Irvingites?
40211I know you well enough to know, that you will not like its propounder; but who else has been ripe and bold enough to do it?
40211If I can sink the past in oblivion for common good, who should say he can not?
40211If Mr. Faraday had played you_ hocus pocus_ or legerdemain tricks, as a pretence of chemistry, would you have been satisfied?
40211If not, and I say-- No, to what good purpose does this expensive establishment exist?
40211In the Church now existing, is there aught but mystery that can be called its religion?
40211In what class of ages do we place the dark ages of man''s history?
40211Is it not so in Ireland?
40211Is it not your greatest trouble in this island?
40211Is it now so built?
40211Is not this the grand_ desideratum?_ Can it be accomplished?--I think it can, and so proceed to unfold the two- fold consideration.
40211It is a fair question to put to you and your party, if you know the first principles of the Institutions of this country?
40211Know you not, Sir, that knowledge is power?
40211Now what do we see?
40211On what rock, then, must the Church of Christ be built, so that the gates of hell, or of evil design, or of dissent, may not prevail against it?
40211On what, but KNOWLEDGE?
40211Or a beautifully reflected picture of the heavens and its explanation lessen true devotion?
40211Or what should it seek to be, other than a moral power?
40211Or, may it not be put to a better purpose?
40211The first consideration is-- What is now the Church?
40211The second consideration will be-- What ought the Church to be, so as to leave no ground and reason of dissent?
40211There would then be some ground for a bishop''s or overseer''s examination and confirmation; but what does confirmation now mean?
40211Those who dissent by knowledge, or those by ignorance?
40211To the Pagan, Jew, Mahometan, Infidel, or whose?
40211To which will you yield, or whom will you join?
40211To whose account are they placed?
40211Was not everything demonstrated, so that the words were verified by the acts of the Lecturer?
40211What are its defects?
40211What are its defects?

40211What is to be done with the Swedenborgians, the Muggletonians, and Southcotians?
40211What kind of a school?
40211What seeks your Church to be?
40211What the cause of that dissent which has made a revision necessary?
40211What the cause of that dissent, which has made a revision necessary?
40211What, then, is the revelation of the mystery of Christ?
40211What, then, ought the Church to be, so as to have no ground and reason of dissent?
40211When Peter, in the Gospel, is called upon to feed the lambs of Christ, what was meant?--to feed them with grass?
40211When there, were you asked to believe anything?
40211Who else deserves the honour of being its propounder; but I, its honest martyr and zealous student, through a ten years''imprisonment?
40211Will their pride let them learn of me?
40211Will you now grant that commission?
40211Would moral; science profane the pulpit or injure the congregation?
40211Would the experimental lectures of a Faraday, desecrate the building?
40211You may ask, how is this to be done?
40211You must have read that celebrated axiom of Bacon''s; but have you considered it, have you reflected, have you repented and proved that axiom?
40211and if it may, why not?
38850And why so?

41129Among all the mistakes which had been made by the Allies, can the keenest critic discover anything to compare with this?
41129And if Germany can not find gold to pay for the wheat she so sorely needs from Rumania, what are her prospects of finding it for other countries?
41129And if Verdun falls, will the victory be worth the price?
41129And if this is true of England, can we blame the neutral nations and our Allies if they are no more scrupulous?
41129And will anyone contend that, in bringing the German design to hopeless ruin, Britain has not played a worthy part?
41129And, with France helpless and Britain neutral, what would have been Russia''s chance of escaping disaster?
41129But are we quite so sure that, failure though it was, it was all lost effort, or even, as things were, that it was not worth the price we paid?
41129But what are the facts of the situation?
41129But will it be pretended that we have caught them all?

41129Can we say that in this direction, more than in others, the German plans have gone well?
41129Can we, with all these advantages, break decisively the German lines in the West, which the enemy professes to regard as impregnable?
41129Could we defeat her through our undisputed command of the sea?
41129Do we owe any consideration to such a nation?
41129Have we been as prudent?
41129How can we show our appreciation of what Belgium, the greatest martyr of all, has done for the sacred cause of liberty?
41129How have we taken up the task of creating forces which might be regarded as commensurate to meet the menace by which civilisation found itself faced?
41129How should we have met the menace with the sea bases largely in German hands?
41129Is it, indeed, the Invisible Hand which to- day refuses to allow some of our Government Departments to be cleansed of the Teuton taint?

41129When the above facts are considered, what Australian is there can continue to cherish any doubt as to Germany''s designs upon the Commonwealth?
41129Whereas what do we see to- day?
41129Will Germany be in anything like so favourable a position?
41129Will anyone venture to express a doubt that, but for the assistance of Britain, France must have been crushed?

40513And why?
40513And,said Henry, stepping forward and speaking with energy,"what, then, will you give me, my father?"
40513Are they?
40513But what can I do?
40513But,asked the boy- king, with a sneer,"who will take care of your duchy while you are grasping at a crown?"
40513But,said Henry,"what can I do with this money if I have neither house nor land?"

38569How can dealers remain honest with such inducements to"profiteering"?
38569How is it that this lady has remained unmarried till her hair is growing grey?

38569I said to him:"You know, Mr. Chamberlain, I am a Free Trader?"
38569I ventured to suggest that he had written various books which I had read with pleasure-- why did he write them if such was his opinion?

38569Then he said,"If I go, will you come out and stay with me?"
38569Thereupon the astonished family at the Abbey exclaimed,"Oh, Cousin Charles, are you a Puseyite?"

38569When the Saint saw them looking so bad he asked,"What''s the matter?"
38569Whence these judgments so malign?

38569Whereupon Mrs. Kemble demanded, with a tragical air worthy of her aunt Mrs. Siddons,"And are you very happy, young lady?"
38569Whereupon said the ascetic, with evident emotion:"Why do n''t you come at once?
38569Why should this be a characteristic of English governesses-- supposing his experience( borne out by my own) to be typical?

41852Or that in three short years"France''s Poland"would have for ever freed herself from the Sun King?

41852Well, if she''s of such high station, why is she such an( unprintable)?

41852What were her prospects?
41852When he had finished she said meekly--"At what o''clock did Jesus Christ die?
41852Whereupon the King, redoubling his assurances of favour and threats of death, said--"''And my brother, did he know of it?''
41852Whom could we get that would sound well to put in the_ Gazette_?''
41852Will your ladyship be at the play to- night?"

41811If the sword of the King and the cross of the Archbishop were to come in conflict, which were the more fearful weapon?

41811Would it not be charity,said the king,"to give that fellow a cloak, and cover him from the cold?"

41811Did Becket decide against the Norman laws by the Anglo- Saxon?
41811Did Becket demand not merely the actual possessions of the see, but all to which he laid claim?

41194But why?
41194Does the Chief Secretary''s best friend claim that he is a cleverer man or a more profound statesman than Mr. Forster?

2613And what wonder is it?
2613And why not for Glenlyon who acted by order of Hamilton?
2613But was he sincere?
2613But was it quite certain what government he meant to set up?
2613But was this such a case?
2613But what can I do?
2613But what is that to me?
2613But what was to be done when the chances appeared to be almost exactly balanced?
2613But who had ever heard of a Bank of France or a Bank of Spain?
2613But would their Lordships amend a money bill?
2613Can we doubt that he who sells us to one another will, for a good price, sell us all to the common enemy?"
2613Can we doubt that, together with this home trade in charters, a profitable foreign trade in secrets is carried on?
2613Could he bring himself to recognise them?
2613Did the difference between war and assassination depend merely on the number of persons engaged?
2613Do they really believe that, if that evil day shall ever come, this just and necessary law will be the pattern which he will imitate?

2613Had he not been just as loud in professions of loyalty on the very eve of his crime?
2613Had not the battle of Worcester been as great a blow to the hopes of the House of Stuart as the battle of the Boyne?
2613Had not the chances of a Restoration seemed as small in 1657 as they could seem to any judicious man in 1691?
2613Had she abandoned her Royal Martyr in the prison or on the scaffold?
2613Had she enjoined her children to pay obedience to the Rump or to the Protector?
2613Had such indeed been her doctrine or her practice in evil days?
2613Have I not behaved like a man of honour?
2613Have not excellent bills been lost because we would not consent to insert in them clauses conferring new privileges on the nobility?
2613Have they ever made any sacrifice of their own interest, of their own dignity, to the general welfare?
2613How can we be safe while a man proved to be venal has access to the royal ear?
2613How could he, after the villanies which he had committed against the best of Kings, hope ever to be trusted again?
2613How in truth was it possible for them to doubt that James''s confidential agent correctly construed James''s expressions?
2613How stands the fact?
2613How, it is very sensibly asked, is the officer to know that there are books in the box till he has opened it?
2613If Robart''s testimony be, as they now say, indispensable, why did they not send for him and hear his story before they made up their minds?

2613If the address should be carried, what could William do?
2613If their Lordships were to send us the most judicious of all money bills, should we not kick it to the door?
2613In what single case has a guiltless head fallen by the verdict of this packed jury?
2613In what vicegerent could he place equal confidence?
2613Is it possible to doubt what the consequence will be?
2613Is the responsibility with the commanding officer, or with the rank and file whom he orders to make ready, present and fire?
2613Might he hope to have, in the royal handwriting, two lines containing a promise of pardon?
2613Might he not depose William without restoring James?
2613Might it not, in the absence of all information, be reasonably presumed that he had been disgraced without sufficient cause?
2613Nay, what had he done more than had been done by every body who bore arms against the Prince of Orange?
2613Nay, who could say that the bribe now offered was not a bait intended to lure the victim to the place where a terrible doom awaited him?
2613On what principle then was the expense of restoring the currency to be borne by a part of the community?
2613On what principle was the traitor to have chances of escape which were not allowed to the felon?
2613Or how can you, without sin, designate as King, in a solemn address to God, one whom you can not, without sin, promise to obey as King?
2613Or was Fenwick, like Monmouth, a pretender to the Crown and the idol of the common people?
2613Or will it be said that there was greater reason for placing confidence in his military than in his diplomatic skill?
2613Or would it be possible to bribe a juryman or two to starve out the rest?
2613Ought I not to be treated as such?
2613Perhaps it might be possible to save William without harming Porter?
2613Should he attack instantly, or wait till the next morning?
2613Should the House of Commons be permitted to sit again, or should there be an immediate dissolution?
2613The Lords justices broke out;"You are a rogue; You are a villain; You shall be hanged; Where is the Provost Marshal?"
2613They were not restrained, as a judge is restrained, by the sense of responsibility; for who was to punish a Parliament?
2613To what cause are we to ascribe so strange an antipathy?
2613To what vicegerent would the nation look up with equal respect?
2613Was Eglon''s a settled government when Ehud stabbed him?
2613Was Joram''s a settled government when Jehe shot him?
2613Was he then to escape?
2613Was he to commit a murder?
2613Was he to suffer a murder which he could prevent to be committed?
2613Was it five thousand, or a thousand, or a hundred?
2613Was it not enough, they asked, to desert the true and pure Church, in this her hour of sorrow and peril, without also slandering her?
2613Was it not monstrous, they asked, that a culprit should be denied a sight of his indictment?
2613Was it not possible that the weary and harassed nation might gladly acquiesce in such a settlement?
2613Was it not probable, then, that calumny might have deprived him of his master''s favour in January?
2613Was it proper that a man in his situation should be suffered to make the palace of his injured master his home?
2613Was it wished that he should bring them over in a body to the French camp?
2613Was that assassination?
2613Was there then absolutely no foundation for the story?
2613Were all the finest youths of three counties crowding to enlist under his banners?

2613Where was this eternal law before the reign of Edward the Sixth?
2613Where were now the brave old hangings of arras which had adorned the walls of lordly mansions in the days of Elizabeth?
2613Who could expect faithful and vigilant stewardship from stewards who had a direct interest in encouraging the waste which they were employed to check?
2613Who could have e''er believed, unless in spite Lewis le Grand would turn rank Williamite?
2613Who that remembers what I have done and suffered for His Majesty will believe that I would speak disrespectfully of him?"

2613Who was to supply it now?
2613Who, it was asked, would dare to blame the heroic pontiff who had restored the heir of David?
2613Why should not the Bank of London be as great and as durable as the Banks of Genoa and of Amsterdam?
2613Why then did he use expressions which to the great majority of his readers must have been unintelligible?
2613Will it be said that an error in diplomacy is likely to be more injurious to the country than an error in strategy?
2613Will you tell him what I suffer?
2613Would he discard all his dearest, his oldest, his most trusty friends?
2613Would he yield?
2613Would the Bank of England advance that sum?
2613Would the Commons usurp the most sacred prerogative of the Crown?
2613Would the Council of Regency consent to an abatement of three hundred thousand pounds?
2613Yet on what principle?
2613Yet was he to betray one who, however culpable, had loaded him with benefits?
2613Yet was not the government of Athaliah as firmly settled as that of the Prince of Orange?
2613Yet was the government of the Rump or of the Protector less entitled to be called a settled government than the government of William and Mary?

44695Can it be supposed, then, that a man may become patriotic after his thirty- first year?
44695Had he heard any news of what had become of Bruce?
44695How was Bruce occupied during this national crisis?
44695Now, at what date did Bruce pass from Dunaverty to Rathlin?
44695Turning to Bruce''s staff they inquired anxiously, Why was this?

44980Had He abandoned them to their enemies?
44980Had he, like many others, preferred the safer course, withdrawn into private life and abandoned his property and ambitions together?
44980Meanwhile what of our friend Blood amid all these great affairs?
44980Might not another restore the Covenant and give back to the afflicted saints their inheritance and the spoil of the Philistines?
44980Was He to look on unmoved?
44980Was it not their part as brave and righteous men to strike another blow for the faith that was in them and the heritage He had put in their hands?
44980Was this not rather a device of His to try their constancy and courage?

43250Is it not nearly tea- time? 43250 Is not he a beauty, Edith?"
43250Is not this a lovely old room, mamma?
43250It''s just like dolls keeping house; is n''t it lovely, mamma?

31253--"And then you touch golden fees, I suppose?"
31253--"And what has so frightened you?"

31253And is not the timber of many fruit- trees as useful as the timber of many of the lumber- trees which now encumber our soil?
31253Are ideas more numerous than musical sounds, and tones, and tunes?
31253Are not those graves, then, said I, the end of thousands of busy cares and ambitious projects?
31253Are there not desolate countries enough in which to grow trees for the mere purposes of timber?
31253Are there not soils and situations even in England, where none but timber- trees can grow?
31253Are these the genuine fruits of civilization?

31253Can the_ pulpit_ be expected to advocate political truth, while the patronage of the Church is in the hands of the Administration of the day?
31253Did it never occur, however, to the clergymen who superintend these depositories of mortality, that more respect is due to the feelings of survivors?
31253Did the early reformers detect the whole of them?

31253Do not the phenomena appear constantly to accompany the same bodies, and are they not therefore occasioned by the qualities of the bodies?
31253Do not the powers of musical characters and of the telegraph prove the facility and capacity of very simple combinations?
31253Do not these objects, and all exertions of reasoning, prove, that the climax of human wisdom is# HUMILITY#?
31253Do such circumstances indicate the ascendency of benevolence?
31253Do they help those who require help?
31253Do they increase the number of independent fire- sides?--Rather, do they not wantonly add to the means of monopolists?
31253Do they not abridge the scanty means of the poor in the free use of their bare- cropt commons?
31253Do they not add to the number of vassals, and diminish the number of freemen?
31253Do they not give where nothing is wanted, however much may be coveted?

31253Do they, by augmenting the supply, make provisions cheaper?

31253Does Claude ever revel in solitudes?
31253Does Poussin fascinate in exhibitions of mechanical nature?
31253Does not some malevolent influence then deprive us of the advantages of our ingenuity?

31253For what but for such purposes of equalizing happiness are governments constituted and maintained?
31253Granted,--but whence come his means?
31253Has education yet effected nothing for mankind,_ owing to its servility to power_?
31253Has nature provided abundance, and do we create insuperable bars to its enjoyment?
31253Have we conceived the utmost limits of its abstractions?
31253Have we examined the powers of all its terms with equal care?
31253How can a being, then, of such limited powers presume to examine nature beyond the mere surface?
31253How can he measure unseen powers, of which he has no perception, but in the phenomena visible to his senses?
31253How much more am I incapable of knowing, with my limited organs of sense, than I might know if their capacity or their number were enlarged?

31253In short, are the vices of gluttony, drunkenness, pugilism, and prodigality, any where more indulged?
31253In this we rejoice; but, from our past experience of the effects, I ask emphatically,# Why#?
31253Is it necessary for any evident purpose, that the gates should be locked at any time, or for more than a few hours in the night?
31253Is it necessary that the phenomena should be confined to particular bodies, if there are as many active fluids as phenomena?
31253Is it not to mistake the means for the end, to teach any language, except as the medium of superior philosophy?
31253Is it probable that two active powers could be co- existent?
31253Is not the sanguinary power of law suffered to devour its victims for_ first_ relapses from virtue, as unsparingly as for any number of repetitions?
31253Is not this puny structure a tribute of man to the Architect of the Universe?
31253Is our wisdom confined in so narrow a circle?
31253Is religion in the pulpit but a plausible means of palliating the crimes of statesmen,_ owing to the ambition of its professors_?
31253Is such the line of demarcation between the selfish ordinances of man, and the wise dispensations of Providence?
31253Is the press but a more effective engine for promulgating sophistry,_ owing to its ready corruption_?
31253Is the series capable of no further application, extension, or variation?
31253Is the system of the public schools, where our statesmen and legislators are educated, addressed to the# HEART# as well as the# HEAD#?
31253Is this, said I, the vaunted age of reason?
31253May not certain varieties of these involved series of atoms constitute the several media which produce the several phenomena of matter?
31253May not motion grow out of the vacuum between the atoms of that universal medium?
31253May not the different qualities of bodies be sufficient to explain the phenomena on the hypothesis of one active power?
31253May not the elasticity of a universal medium account for most of the intricate phenomena of bodies?
31253May not the events of a morning which slides away, and leaves no traces behind it, be correctly likened therefore to the entire course of human life?
31253May not the extinction of one species render the existence of others more unfit, by diminishing the number of final causes?
31253May there not be set within set, each necessary to the motion of the other, till we approximate a plenum?
31253Must we for ever be the dupes of superstition, or the slaves of upstart authority?
31253Ought not the ghosts of Shakespeare to be_ supposed_ merely as the effects of diseased vision, or a guilty imagination?
31253Pride, the bane of man-- I exclaimed, as I passed the gate-- what are its claims?
31253Was it not evidently pre- ordained, therefore, that I should walk along that street, at that time, for the purpose of relieving that family?"
31253Was not life the# MERE DREAM# of their now senseless tenants-- like the trackless path of a bird in the air, or of a fish in the waters?
31253Was the world made for the many, or the few?

31253What can be more strongly marked than the gipsy physiognomy?
31253What can now be learnt of anatomy which can not be found in books and models, or be taught in the dissection of murderers?

31253What is our real condition?
31253What medicine can allay the fever which is often exasperated by their clangor?
31253What then is the security against the intrusion of the vicious?
31253What then, I exclaimed, has been done with it?
31253Where is the monument to be found in the public buildings of London, to record thy virtues for the example of others?
31253Why have our poets failed to colour and finish it?
31253Why then appropriate so fine a piece of ground to so barren a purpose?
31253Why then sacrifice to the pride of custom that which in other dispositions might add so much to the sum of happiness?
31253Would it not be a worthy companion to the statues of Beckford and Chatham?
31253Would it now be possible to poison Socrates, banish Aristides, and crucify Jesus, for teaching truth and practising virtue?
31253Yet does reason afford no alternative?
31253Yet, if bridges remain private property,# FOR WHAT BENEFIT# has so much money been expended?

31253said I, when will the generation arrive that will not merit as much pity from succeeding generations as those poor monks?
31253thought I, I am sensible how little I know; yet how much is there which I do not, and can never, know?

41788Can not you close with him, or else occupy a defensible position which will obstruct his advance?
41788Did he draw his habit of concentration on the matter in hand, his painstaking attention to detail, from the inventor- engineer of Aberdeen?
41788Do you remember?"
41788Do you think it would be safe for you to advance your force or part of it to Stormberg, and hold that instead of Queenstown?
41788Doubt that Thy power can fill the heart that Thy power expands?
41788Gatacre complimented him highly, and said:"''Now, what can I do for you?
41788Have you got it out here?"
41788In a letter to Stephen, dated from Gatacre, July 20, 1860, we find the following passage:"Did you know that there was an Alderney bull come?
41788In the meantime, what had become of the other detachments?
41788It was very annoying, just at the finish, was n''t it?
41788Now, what does this mean?
41788On the 18th, after the first day''s performance, he writes:"What will you say to me, not writing to you yesterday?
41788One question that was asked was, What sort of disease was plague?
41788The thought of doing that journey again so soon was most distasteful, but the officer only asked:"What time do we start?"
41788Was this the guerdon for all the years of loving toil?
41788Was this"the reward of it all"?
41788What, have fear of change from Thee who art ever the same?
41788Where is the spring?"
41788Who shall say whence a man draws his reserves of strength?
41788Why should I stand in his way?
41788Why, oh why did they treat our General so hardly, so unfairly?
41788Writing to his mother in March 1857, he says:"Did you see in the papers that peace had been made with Persia?"
41788[ Sidenote: The broken arcs]***** Therefore to whom do I turn but to Thee, the ineffable Name?
41788which elicited the unexpected response:"Will you be my transport officer?"
23605''Ad a rough time in the box, Luba?

23605Ai n''t nobody bin asking for me?
23605And Clarence... Clarence was fairly all out that night-- what?
23605And how are you?"
23605And in reply to Victor''s inquiry:"I hope you''re well?"
23605And nearly flung bricks through the windows-- what?
23605And next morning-- when they met Jimmy coming down the steps of the Garrick Club--_what?_ To all of which Dusty replied:"Ah, yes, sir.
23605And now-- was this Paris or London or Tuan- tsen or Taiping?
23605And then,"Where you off to in such a hurry?"
23605And why, oh, why are these places run by white- faced men and elderly, hard women?
23605And ye''ll ha''a drink?"
23605Another woman''s voice wailed across the unhappy water in the mournful accent of Belfast:"Fr- r- rank, Fr- rank, where arrre ye?
23605Anything wrong?"

23605Can one imagine a modern Duchess with a modern poet as secretary?
23605Can you conceive a more bitter mind than that which calls a girl of the streets a Fallen Sister?
23605Come?"
23605Did Dusty remember the show at Willie''s about-- how many was it?--twenty years ago?
23605Did I know old Jumbo?
23605Did he remember how Phil May had squirted the syphon down poor old Pitcher''s neck?
23605Did we know the story-- story about a fellah-- fellah who had an aunt, you know?
23605Did you''ear what he called me?
23605Did you''ear?
23605Do n''t they, though?
23605Do you know those delightful London children, the tailors''collectors, who"fetch it and bring it home"?
23605Does a duck know the water?"
23605Does careful feeding and tending poison the roots of loveliness?
23605Does that terrifying process called Good Breeding kill all beauty?
23605Eh?
23605Ethel asks Lucy,"Shall we?"
23605Ever walked down it at the end of a day without a meal and without a penny?
23605FOLLOW_ Golden Roll_; and this, capped by a pint of hot tea, for sevenpence, when he burst into my words with--"The South London Road, laddie?
23605Feel all choky, like, do n''t you?
23605For she spoke and said--"Funny- looking little guy, ai n''t you?"
23605Getting copy?
23605Had I better not go?"
23605Has he read in you the riddle of our living?
23605Has he seen in you the world''s one yearning, All the season''s message, all the heaven''s play?
23605Have they not added incalculably to the store of human happiness, and helped many thousands over the waste patches of the week?
23605Have you ever smelt Irish stew after being sixteen hours without food?
23605He called me a-- a-- what was it he called me?"
23605He hailed me in Oxford Street, and cried:"Where now, laddie, where now?"
23605He knew a place, quite near, where some of the boys were sure to be; what about it?
23605He said he had n''t much money, so what about it?
23605He said,"Laddie, doing anything to- night?"
23605He said:"Like to help your old uncle?"
23605He said:"Well, what about it?"
23605He said:"What is it?"
23605He said:"Would you marry your aunt?
23605He went and wiped it out in beer--"Well, dammit, why should I stick here, By a dark house in a dark street?
23605How can you deal scientifically or religiously with that?
23605How shall I give you the sharp flavour of it, or catch the temper of its streets?
23605I am not a Jew myself, but how can I serve what you order?
23605I called to one of the boys--"What''s the joke?
23605I had heard other singers, English singers, the best of whom are seldom better than the third- rate Italians, but Caruso.... What is he?
23605I have watched the nuts and the girls, and what have I seen?
23605I said,"No; what''s on?"
23605I wonder what the moral is?
23605If not... m''I see you home?"
23605Imitations of Robey, Formby, Chirgwin-- what?"
23605It smelt-- how shall I give it to you?
23605Landlady said she was sorry; did n''t know it annoyed me; but you could n''t keep food from smelling, could you?
23605Let''s see-- how do they go?
23605Nah then-- what say to six- and- a- arf?"
23605One heard the creak of opening windows, and voices:"Why doncher separate''em?
23605One of the boys asked casually,"What''s up?"
23605Oo''s got a fag?"
23605Or is it that the ragtime kings have gone to the antiquities of the Orient for their melodies?
23605Or perhaps as a literary man you come here for Keats... Coleridge... and all that?"
23605Or where a panorama like those that sweep before you from Highgate Archway or the Islington Angel?
23605Or where shall you find a sweeter pastoral than that field of lights that thrills the midnight sojourner in lower Piccadilly?
23605Other people wanter have a see, do n''t they?"
23605Please, Mr. W. D. Howells, will you write it for us?
23605Put you through it, din''''e?"
23605See?

23605See?
23605See?"
23605Shakespeare-- what?
23605She given you notice?
23605She said to the anarchist:"Where''s mine?"
23605Some cried"Whassup?"
23605Some one came and shoved a fuzzy head through the door, asking lazily,"Whassup?"
23605Suppose we had just one more?
23605Tell me-- how can I do it?
23605The girl at the door spoke in a hoarse whisper:"''Ere-- you better go-- you first?"
23605The next moment she seemed to repent the nod, for she flared up and snapped:"Oh, shut up, for Christ''s sake, cancher?
23605Their cheeks were of velvet, their kisses were fire, I looked at them boldly and had my desire.__ Yellow man, yellow man, what do you know?
23605Then ev''body''ll get something they like, see?"
23605Then, at about ten o''clock, he said it was rather dull; and what about it?
23605There is a mass of the best work that is suitable for quartet or quintet, or has been adapted for small orchestra; why is it never heard?
23605There seemed to be trouble.... One heard a querulous voice:"I said TIME, din''I?"
23605They got a big handful of applause, and then Freddie asked:"Ready, sir?"
23605They look helpless; they have an air expressive of:"Well, what the devil shall we do_ now_?"
23605They say,"Is n''t it cold?"
23605They shamelessly broke into his periods with"_ Is n''t_ he IT?"
23605Those who were strangers approached deferentially, and said:"You got a friend, miss?
23605Up the Pacific, so glamorous and gay, Where night is of blue, and of silver the day.__ Yellow man, yellow man, what did you there?
23605Want to take something away with you?"
23605Was there ever a lovelier piece of colour than Cannon Street Station at night?
23605We got a fire going, and it''s sort of turning chilly out, eh?"
23605What I said was:"Ca n''t you keep that damn stink out of my room?"
23605What d''you fancy?
23605What d''you think''ll go best; you know''em better than I do?
23605What is that?
23605What is there to say about him?
23605What would you have done?
23605What''s best-- and damn the expense?"
23605What''s good and what do I get most of for tenpence?"
23605What?"
23605When I had smoothed my nose and dusted my trousers, I said:"Well, what about it?"
23605When a young man of that district has been bitten by the serpent of love, what does he do?
23605When was she tuned last?
23605Where are the empty seats?
23605Where are the entertainers of 1895?
23605Where are the snows of yesteryear?
23605Where is the hall packed to suffocation?
23605Where, too, are the song- writers?
23605Whither do they go?
23605Who composed"Hot Time in the Old Town to- night"--the song that led the Americans to victory in Cuba and the Philippines?
23605Who composed"Let''s all go down the Strand,"a song that surely should have been adopted as The Anthem of London?
23605Who composed"Tipperary"?
23605Who is there to replace that perilously piquant_ diseur_ Harry Fragson?
23605Who knows so well as Little Elsie the exact spending value of twopence- halfpenny?
23605Why ca n''t we have one place in London where one can get drinks, or coffee if desired, and listen to really good music?
23605Why cancher shut that plurry row?"
23605Why d''you go back on Billie, eh?"
23605Why do n''t I wanter fight?
23605Why do n''t some one do somethin''?"
23605Why do n''t they urge them not to uncover themselves?
23605Why do people overeat themselves on Sunday?
23605Why does the horse- faced lady, with nice clothes, go to church on Sunday?
23605Why does the submerged man get drunk on Sunday?
23605Why does the young clerk hang around the West End bars, and get into trouble with doubtful ladies?
23605Why may not the girls talk in certain rooms?
23605Why may they not read anything but the books provided?
23605Why may they not talk in bed?
23605Why must they fold their bed- clothes in such- and- such an exact way?
23605Why must they let the Superior read their letters?
23605Why must they not descend from the bed- room as and when they are dressed?
23605Why should a lighted window call with so subtle a message?
23605With a Models''Club, the Four Arts Club, the Mary Curzon Hotel, and the Lyceum Club, why on earth should they?
23605Wonder what it feels like to sing like that, eh?
23605Would myself and honourable companions smoke, after all?
23605Would n''t think they''d venture into a place the size of ours, perhaps?
23605You are all so-- what is the word?--matey, is n''t it?
23605You ask_ me_ if_ I_ know the South London Road?
23605You do n''t know?
23605You remember the siege of Sidney Street?
23605_ Do_ I know the South London Road?

4245And how long will such a force be under its control?
4245But in what manner will that house conduct itself?
4245Can it be said that this was a false fact, and that no such assurances were in truth given?
4245Did he assure the Prince of Orange that he would never do that which he was engaged to the Prince of Orange to do?
4245Did they enjoy in a greater degree her favour and confidence?
4245First, was it not in itself just and necessary?
4245How long before it follows the usual course of all armies, and ranges itself under a single master?
4245If he had such an accusation to make, why did he not make it?
4245If it should, will it not be obliged to support its claims by military force?
4245If such a master should arise, will he establish an hereditary or an elective government?
4245If the first, what will be gained but a change of dynasty?
4245In order to conceal from motives, whether honourable or otherwise, his connection with the prince?
4245Is the difference to be attributed to any superiority of genius in the prince whom they served in the latter period of their lives?
4245It is not in itself unlikely; and who is there that would not wish it true?
4245It is related by Ferguson that Monmouth said to Matthews,"What shall I do with Lord Grey?"
4245Or will he fail, and shall we have a restoration, usually the most dangerous and worst of all revolutions?
4245Secondly, was the example of it likely to be salutary or pernicious?
4245The first question that naturally presents itself must be, was this declaration true?
4245The question of what are to be the powers of the crown, is surely of superior importance to that of who shall wear it?
4245To what purpose was the falsehood?
4245What follows?
4245Why, then, did he continue silent, when he found James inexorable?
4245Would he not pray for the king, and send a dutiful message to his majesty to recommend the duchess and his children?
4245a fiction in one paragraph of the letter in order to conceal a fact, which in the next he declares his intention of revealing?
4184Why so?
4184Why,says H. Bellasses,"you will not hurt me coming out, will you?"
4184--"Not I?"
4184And all our prizes who did swallow?
4184And the Duke of York said further,"What said Marshal Turenne, when some in vanity said that the enemies were afraid, for they entrenched themselves?
4184And who the forts left unprepared?
4184I did then desire to know what was the great matter that grounded his desire of the Chancellor''s removal?
4184Impudent rascal, do you ask me for money?
4184Is not this a high reason?
4184It was pleasantly said by a man in this City, a stranger, to one that told him that the peace was concluded,"Well,"says he,"and have you a peace?"
4184My business the most of the afternoon is listening to every body that comes to the office, what news?
4184Old Woman to Young Master:''An''''ow is the missis to- day, door wretch?''
4184So out he went, and both drew: and H. Bellasses having drawn and flung away his scabbard, Tom Porter asked him whether he was ready?
4184Tom Killigrew, being by, answered,"Sir,"says he,"pray which is the best for a man, to be a Tom Otter to his wife or to his mistress?"
4184Who all commands sold through the Navy?
4184Who all our seamen cheated of their debt?
4184Who all our ships exposed in Chatham net?
4184Who did advise no navy out to set?
4184Who should it be but the fanatick Pett?
4184Who the Dutch fleet with storms disabled met, And, rifling prizes, them neglected?
4184Who to supply with powder did forget Languard, Sheerness, Gravesend, and Upnor?
4184Who treated out the time at Bergen?
4184Who with false news prevented the Gazette, The fleet divided, writ for Ruhert?
4184Who would not follow when the Dutch were beat?
4184Whose counsel first did this mad war beget?
4184Will you pay me, sir?
4184are they quarrelling, that they talk so high?"
4184says he:"I would have you know that I never quarrel, but I strike; and take that as a rule of mine!"--"How?"
4184says the Duchess,"what should he go for, if he were well, for there are no ships for him to command?
4184will it not make the pot boyle?"

43317According to him, the Army of Metz was in admirable condition and might perhaps break out, but even so, where was it to go?
43317But can decision and firmness be inspired, if they are not in the natural character, or the reputation for them, if once lost, be recovered?
43317But can it be honestly affirmed that the power and independence of Prussia are menaced from any quarter?
43317But what will Bismarck do at Paris?
43317But what will they have left to live upon?
43317But, supposing Paris to fall, will peace be made?
43317Can this state of things be regarded as a menace or a danger to Prussia?

18218[ 97] My Lords, is this a magistrate of the same description as the sovereign delineated by Mr. Hastings? 18218 --How dared you to appoint a man unfit for his office?"
18218--"Why did you destroy the official constitution that existed before?
18218--But I ask, How came they there?
18218--But who, my Lords, authorized him to become a patron?
18218--Who authorized him to make any augmentation of the tribute?
18218:"What impression the letting of the lands to Kelleram and Cullian Sing made on the minds of the inhabitants of that country"?
18218:"Whether more oppressions did actually exist under the new institution than under the old"?
18218A detachment of soldiers was sent to seize the forts[ fort?].
18218A great and powerful garrison?
18218Am I, in praising this Mahometan law, applauding the principle of elective sovereignty?
18218And from whom did he receive these proposals, my Lords?
18218And shall any man in the kingdom call him by any other name?
18218And what did he find in it?
18218And what is it he does?
18218And what is the signal by which you are to know when this authority is restored?
18218And what is this evidence?
18218And what, I again ask, was his behavior?
18218And what, my Lords, is opposed to all this?
18218And what, my Lords, was the condition upon which he was to obtain this promised indulgence?
18218And who was this man?
18218And why?
18218And why?
18218And why?
18218Any one of his confidants?
18218Are not these premises equally true in the case of a proceeding upon indictment?
18218Are there no signs of this man''s being a captain- general of iniquity, under whom all the spoilers of India were paid, disciplined, and supported?
18218Are these the proceedings of a British judge?
18218But admitting the Rajah to have been guilty of delay and unwillingness, what is the nature of the offence?
18218But are we to consider the contents of this paper as the defence of the prisoner or not?
18218But can any man justify an act, because ten or a dozen years after another man has done the same thing?
18218But had not Mr. Hastings himself just before encouraged the military to pillage the country?
18218But what did he do, when he got there?
18218But what say the Lords?
18218But what was the conveniency?
18218But what was this evidence?
18218But when this man was in possession of the country, how came he not to know and understand the condition of it better?
18218But, my Lords, what is this want of skill which Mr. Bristow has shown in negotiating his own affairs?
18218But, my Lords, why did he choose to have Mr. Middleton appointed Resident?
18218But, without doubt, they found abundance of effects after his death?
18218By his obedience to the Court of Directors?--by his attention to the laws of his country?--by his regard to the rights of the people?
18218Can any one believe that he wished either for the one or the other of these charges[ changes?
18218Could a man in gaol, dishonored and reprobated, take effectual means to recover the arrears which he was called upon to pay?
18218Could he, in such a situation, recover the money which was unpaid to him, in such an extensive district as Benares?
18218Did General Clavering, or Colonel Monson, whom he charges with this system, send them there?
18218Did Mr. Francis, whom I saw here a little while ago, send these people into that country?
18218Did Mr. Hastings endeavor to make his strength equal to the task imposed on him?
18218Did Mr. Hastings so inquire?
18218Did Mr. Markham make it?
18218Did he consult the laws?
18218Did he endeavor to meet these charges fairly, as he might have done?
18218Did he even then, I ask, produce any one charge against this man?
18218Did he ever give any notice to the Supreme Council of the charges which he says he had received against Cheyt Sing?
18218Did he ever state it to the Rajah, or did he call his vakeel before the Council to answer the charge?
18218Did he examine any one person, or particularize a single fact, in any manner whatever?
18218Did he inform his secret confidants, Mr. Anderson and Major Palmer, upon that subject?
18218Did he inform them of the amount of the gross collections of the country, from any properly authenticated accounts procured from any public office?
18218Did he insinuate in that letter that he was going up to Benares to suppress a rebellion of the Rajah Cheyt Sing or to punish him?
18218Did he look to the Hedaya, or to any of the approved authorities in this country?
18218Did he look to the Institutes of Timour, or to those of Genghis Khân?
18218Did he not make the people''s resistance, when the soldiers attempted to pillage them, one of the crimes of Cheyt Sing?
18218Did he require his counsel not"to let down the dignity of his defence"?
18218Did he then give up his authority?
18218Do I say it?
18218Do I say this from any confidence in myself?
18218Does Mr. Balfour come forward and tell him who his informant was?
18218Does he say,"He was an informant whom I dare not name, upon account of his great consequence, and the great confidence I had in him"?
18218From all such persons, I say, it was taken: and where, my Lords, was it deposited?
18218Has he pursued the complaint?
18218Have they lost their senses in their guilt?
18218He mentions his intention of levying a fine; but does he make any mention of having charged the Rajah with his offences?
18218He resolved to fine him in the enormous sum of 500,000_l._ Does he inform the Council of this determination?
18218How came it, then, that the Commons of Great Britain should be calumniated for the course which they have taken?
18218How comes it that he is not produced here to tell your Lordships who was his informer, and what he knows of the transaction?
18218How dared he to make these experiments?
18218I admit, that, if his will is the law, he may take[ make?]
18218I ask, How did they know this?
18218I have done with it, and have only to ask, In what country do we live, where such a scene can by any possibility be offered to the public eye?
18218If any one of the ravages[ charges?]
18218If you ask, Who is this Mr. Balfour?
18218In the distress[ in?]
18218In this tremendous scene, which he himself exposes, are there no signs of this captain- generalship which I have alluded to?
18218In what manner can he be justified for playing fast and loose with the dearest interests, and perhaps with the very existence, of a nation?
18218Is it your Lordships''pleasure that the Judges do now give their opinion on that question?"
18218Is there an article in that treaty that he might not as well have made at Calcutta?
18218Is there an article that he broke( for he broke them all) that he could not have broken at Calcutta?
18218Is this resistance, so excited, so provoked, a plea for irreconcilable vengeance?
18218Is this what they call British dominion?
18218Is this, my Lords, the proper way to adjudge a fine?
18218Mr. Hastings having thus rendered the Council blind and ignorant, and consequently fit for subserviency, what does he next do?
18218My Lords, what shall we say to this demeanor?
18218My Lords, what should we say of such brutish ignorance, and such shocking confusion of ideas?
18218Next think of the situation of the princes of the country, obliged to complain without matter of complaint, to approve without[ ground?]
18218Now what does he recommend to the board?
18218Now what was the conduct of Mr. Hastings as judge?
18218Now, my Lords, was there ever such a discovery made of the arcana of any public theatre?
18218Of the money thus obtained what account has been given?
18218On what data could the prisoner at your bar have formed this estimate?
18218Shall I not, then, call him their captain- general?
18218Shall not your Lordships call him so?
18218Suppose Lord Cornwallis to have done wrong; suppose him to have acted illegally; does that clear the prisoner at your bar?
18218The Court of Directors?
18218The plunder of the fort being thus given to the soldiers, what does Mr. Hastings next do?
18218The presumption of bias may be taken off by showing the witness has a[ as?]
18218The tribute had before been 250,000_l._, and he all at once raised it to 400,000_l._ Did he previously inform the Council of these intentions?
18218Therefore the only question is, Whether,_ upon principles of reason, justice, and convenience_, this witness be admissible?
18218This is what all the rest of the world would say: but what says Mr. Hastings?
18218Was it not an abominable thing in Mr. Hastings to withhold from the Council the means of ascertaining the real operation of his taxes?
18218Was the prisoner willing to examine him?
18218Was there in this case any palliative matter?
18218Was this the conduct of the Mogul conquerors of India?
18218We are not come here to compromise matters; we do not admit[ do admit?]
18218We find him pursuing his own visionary projects, without knowing anything of the nature or[ of?]
18218Well, if he did so, what precaution did Mr. Hastings take for his own safety?
18218What are the merits and services, or what the qualifications, which entitle him to such an uncommon distinction?
18218What are the professed objects of his appointment?
18218What did Mr. Hastings then say of this transaction?
18218What did he do in this case?
18218What did you do?
18218What do the Company know of him?
18218What is this authority to which he is restored?
18218What laws of his country justified him in forcing upon the Vizier the civil servants of the Company?
18218What reason was there to think that he should not be sent a third time, who had been sent twice before?
18218What share in the proceeding doth the High Steward, then, take?
18218What state could exist that allowed its inferior members to hold forts and garrisons independent of the superior administration?
18218What system of policy, except his own wicked, arbitrary system, authorized him to act thus?
18218What treaty authorized him to do it?
18218What was his answer?
18218What would be the inference from such an assumption?
18218What, then, are we to think of his persevering in this error?
18218What, then, did he do?
18218What, therefore, are the things due and belonging to the office in a case of this kind?
18218Whenever men are oppressed where they ought to be protected, we called[ call?]
18218Who made the servants of the Company the master of the servants of the Company?
18218Who says all this, my Lords?
18218Who was the instrument employed in all this double- dealing?
18218Who was the person chosen by Mr. Hastings to succeed Cheyt Sing?
18218Why did he not send an order from Calcutta for the payment of the money?
18218Why did they do so?
18218Why should it ever have been supposed that we are actuated by revenge?
18218Why, I again ask, did he destroy the constitution which he found established there, or suffer it to be destroyed?
18218Why, then, did he go to try experiments there in his own person?
18218Why, then, was his presence necessary?
18218Why, then, we ask, did he not send an army?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Why?
18218Will you sanction by your judicial authority transactions done in direct defiance of your legislative authority?
18218With respect to the three lacs of rupees, or 30,000_l._, which was to be given to these women, have we a scrap of paper to prove its payment?
18218Would you consider it possible, my Lords, that there could be an aggravation of such a case as you have heard?
18218and must this_ necessarily_ be the policy of their Christian successors?
18218fly from a Governor- General?
18218have they run mad?
18218in what country, and in what barbarous nation of Hottentots was this jargon picked up?
18218is there a single receipt or voucher to verify their having received one sixpence of it?
18218my Lords, what shall we say in this stage of the business?
18218my Lords, where was this language learned?
18218was there ever such a doctrine before heard?
18218what are the examples which he has chosen?
46439''Oh, where is the isle we''ve seen in dreams, Our destin''d home or grave?''
46002Ask you why Wharton broke through every rule? 46002 Has the fool done this folly?"
46002What can I do to the girl,he asked tartly,"if she is like to die?"
46002What is this forest call''d?
46002It is, no doubt, like all great commercial centres, of paramount interest to its inhabitants; but to the traveller what is it?
46002Who thinks of history when he goes to Hull?
2612And, Mr. Hampden, did not you afterwards send your wife to thank him for his kindness?
2612Are those brave fellows in Londonderry to be deserted? 2612 Are you,"he said,"for King James?"
2612But did Lord Halifax take any money?
2612Did you meet the new Secretary of State going out?
2612Do you wish,said William peevishly,"to see me dead?"
2612How goes the day?
2612How now?
2612If the Convention,--it was thus that he argued,--"was not a Parliament, how can we be a Parliament?
2612Is it not strange,asked Halifax,"that you should have requested the good offices of one whose arts had brought your head into peril?"
2612Is none of my lads so clever as to send this judge packing? 2612 Is this business over?"
2612Not at all,said Hampden;"to whom was I to apply except to the men who were in power?
2612Says God to the Hielandman,''Quhair wilt thou now?'' 2612 Then bespoke Mary, our most royal Queen,''My gracious king William, where are you going?''
2612What took him there?
2612What will you do for me?
2612What, my Lord?
2612What,he said,"dare you own me now?"
2612What,said he,"do you not know your friends?"
2612Where are you going, my Lord?
2612Where was your conscience,said Tutchin,"when you passed that sentence on me at Dorchester?"
2612Who is this woman? 2612 Will you thank the King,"they said,"for putting the sword into the hands of his most dangerous enemies?
2612Among the statesmen and warriors who bore the chief part in restoring Charles the Second, how many were there who had not repeatedly abjured him?
2612And are we to reward them by now permitting them to destroy it?
2612And how could the stream rise higher than the source?
2612And is an order thus favoured by the state to give no guarantee to the state?
2612And is it not probable that, by thus attempting to heal one schism, we may cause another?
2612And to whom could they look for a solution of this doubt?
2612And was it altogether deserved?
2612And was not the English government exposed to the dangers which, even if all its servants were true, might well excite serious apprehensions?
2612And what distinction was there between that case and the case which had now arisen?
2612And what effect was likely to be produced in England by the cry of thousands of innocent English families whom an English king had doomed to ruin?
2612And what had been done that was not in strict accordance with the law of Parliament?
2612And what theologian would assert that, in such cases, we ought, from abhorrence of the evil, to reject the good?
2612And where, it was said, is the danger of treating them with tenderness?
2612And why, if the clergyman really means to observe the laws, does he scruple to take the oaths?
2612And yet, if such a bill had been passed, what would it have effected beyond what was effected by the Toleration Act?
2612And, even if wrong had been done, how was it to be redressed?
2612Are our brethren to perish almost in sight of England, within a few hours''voyage of our shores?"
2612Are we therefore to forget that they had previously endangered it?
2612As soon as the King''s decision was known, the question was every where asked, What will the Archbishop do?
2612But if he proved to be a minister for evil, on what grounds was he to be considered as divinely commissioned?
2612But was one injustice to be redressed by committing another injustice more monstrous still?
2612But what chance was there of such a counterrevolution?
2612But what would be the effect of such laws at Westminster?
2612But will the new test, will any test, be more efficacious?
2612But would such a clause supply the place of a clause designating the successor by name?
2612By whom had Shales been recommended for so important a place as that of Commissary General?
2612Can we believe that his conscience will suffer him to do all this, and yet will not suffer him to promise that he will be a faithful subject to them?
2612Could any government be safe which was hated and betrayed by its own servants?
2612Could it be contended that crimes which had been grave enough to justify resistance had not been grave enough to deserve punishment?
2612Could nothing be done to remedy this evil?
2612Could the Convention now assembled be turned into a Parliament?
2612Had Bonner continued to be, to the end of his life, the only true Bishop of London?
2612Had Parker and Jewel been schismatics?
2612Had he made up his mind to take the part of Ireland against the universal sense of England?
2612Had he not some of the qualities of an excellent prince?
2612Had his successor been an usurper?
2612Had not the unhappy man been rather weak and rash than wicked?
2612Had that deprivation been null?
2612Hamilton insisted that the question, should be,"Approve or not approve the rabbling?"
2612He asks how it can be imagined that, while"they are maintained like gentlemen by the breach they will ever preach up healing doctrines?"
2612How could right spring out of wrong?
2612How else could it be that a market overt for plunder should be held within a short distance of the capital?
2612How then was it possible for such a divine to deny that obedience had been due to Cromwell, and yet to affirm that it was due to William?
2612How was power likely to be used by an uneducated and inexperienced man, agitated by strong desires and resentments which he mistook for sacred duties?
2612How, they asked, was it possible to defend this project of amnesty without condemning the Revolution?
2612If he left it, whither was he to go?
2612If he were at heart inclined to persecution, would he not have persecuted the Irish Protestants?
2612If so, to what could he look forward but another banishment and another deposition?
2612If we lose them will not all the world cry shame upon us?
2612In what state would the country then be left?
2612Is every person a Papist who is willing to concede to the Bishop of Rome a primacy among Christian prelates?
2612Is it meant that a person arraigned for high treason may tender evidence to prove that the Sovereign has married a Papist?
2612Mais s''il estoit si adroit et si zele, comment as- tu pu trouver le moyen de le faire exclure du nombre des deputez?"
2612Marforio asks:"Le Chancelier est donc mort dans la Tour?"
2612May she not, in ceasing to give scandal to a few sour precisians, cease also to influence the hearts of many who now delight in her ordinances?
2612Might not the most honest and the most intelligent men be in doubt whether they ought to regard him as their Sovereign?
2612Nay, is it not well known that some of those persons boastfully affirmed that, if they had not abjured him, they never could have restored him?
2612Or was the crown to be in abeyance till he came to an age at which he might be capable of choosing a religion?
2612Or would he, when he had recovered the greater kingdom, revoke the boors by which, in his distress, he had purchased the help of the smaller?
2612She would be in constant need of wise and upright counsel; and where was such counsel to be found?
2612Swift wrote on the margin of his copy of Clarendon, in one place,"How old was he( James) when he turned Papist and a coward?"
2612The doctrine of passive obedience being taken for granted, to whom was that obedience due?
2612The question was put according to the Scottish form,"Approve or not approve the article?"
2612The ranks were drawn up under arms; and the question was put,"Advance or Retreat?"
2612To whom would allegiance be due?
2612Was Christmas no longer to be a day of rejoicing?
2612Was Passion week no longer to be a season of humiliation?
2612Was he then to be proclaimed King?
2612Was it ever heard of in war that the person of an enemy, a combatant in arms, was to be held inviolable on account of his name and descent?
2612Was it not fit then that the Church of England should take warning?
2612Was no indulgence to be granted to them if they now refused to do what they conscientiously apprehended to be wrong?
2612Was not the order which Christ had established in his own house to be held equally sacred in all countries and through all ages?
2612Was public opinion, then, the test of right and wrong in religion?
2612Was the organ of Exeter to be silenced to please another?
2612Was there ever, these zealots exclaimed, such a halting between two opinions, such a compromise between the Lord and Baal?
2612Was this then the real sense of all those sublime phrases which had resounded during twenty- nine years from innumerable pulpits?
2612Were all the village bells to be mute because Tribulation Wholesome and Deacon Ananias thought them profane?
2612Were the laity no part of the Church of England?
2612Were the windows of King''s College Chapel to be broken at the demand of one set of fanatics?
2612Were they drunk?
2612Were they traitors?
2612What Amalekite had William smitten?
2612What again is the legal effect of the words which absolve the subject from his allegiance?
2612What at Oxford?
2612What did it matter whether the Sixty were called prelates or not, if they were to lord it with more than prelatical authority over God''s heritage?
2612What friends have you except the King and me?"
2612What if the English right wing should get into the rear of the army of James?
2612What if the Tower itself should be bombarded?
2612What if the dockyards of Chatham should again be destroyed?
2612What if the next heir should be a prince of the House of Savoy not three months old?
2612What if the vast wood of masts and yardarms below London Bridge should be in ablaze?
2612What if the victorious enemy should do what De Ruyter had done?
2612What indeed is the value of any oath in such a matter?
2612What is a Papist?

2612Who were entitled to be consulted?
2612Why had this creature of James been entrusted with the business of catering for the army of William?
2612Why have we not cut the boom in pieces?
2612Why is not the same argument urged in favour of the layman?
2612Why should his feelings, his prejudices, if prejudices they were, be less considered than the whims of schismatics?
2612Why was chivalrous courtesy to be shown to foes who thought no stratagem immoral, and who had never given quarter?
2612Why, it was asked, should not the cost of the Irish war be borne by the Irish insurgents?
2612Why, they asked, were none but members of the sacerdotal order to be intrusted with this duty?
2612Why, too, was nothing said of those Covenants which the nation had so generally subscribed and so generally violated?
2612With what consistency then could he recommend that such crimes should be covered by a general oblivion?
2612Would Mountjoy undertake this most honourable and important mission?
2612Would it be pretended by any Tory that the Convention of 1660 had a more respectable origin than the Convention of 1689?
2612Would thirty such men be easily found in the higher ranks of the clerical profession?
2612Yet what could be done?
2612Yet what other course would be left to him?
2612he said;"or will your horse make more fight?"
2612said one of the deputies;"Are we to sit still and let ourselves be butchered?"
43817And dost thou mean, then, that thy paltry tale shall serve as a full answer to my query?
43817And what said the judge?
43817And why, doctor,returned Macklin, with an indescribable sort of comic frown,"why did you give the rascal_ so erroneous a notion of your courage_?"
43817Is that the end of thy story?
43817Look before you leap,said he, giving her a smart shake;"did you never hear that adage, you stupid creature?"
43817Oh, very well,returned Macklin;"how will you answer this argument?"
43817Well,said the band- man,"and what if I am?"
43817And where shall be my rest?"
43817Asked, in the tones of one with whom Fear never yet had been a guest--"And when doth Fate achieve my doom?
43817Do you think that I sit here for the purpose of expounding riddles and reconciling contradictions?
43817Does each of you love only himself?
43817Dost thou mean to say that all religions are upon the same level in the sight of the God of Truth?"
43817Dost thou tell me that the faith of the Mooslemin is not acknowledged by all right- thinking persons to be the true one?"
43817Have I not been twelve times defeated by the enemy''s superior force?
43817How can I ask of you to abandon the prepossessions of your fathers before you, and in which, true or false, you have been nurtured?
43817How is this obstinacy of thine reconcilable with the wisdom and moderation for which the true believers give thee credit?"
43817In whom, then, I would ask, is it most natural for us to place our trust?
43817Is not that thy unhesitating persuasion?"
43817Is thy parable ended?"
43817Is your highness attentive?"
43817Look at the granite hills of Quincy?
43817Or do you, perhaps, expect that the true ring will by some miracle be compelled to bear oral testimony here in court to its own genuineness?
43817There are, it is true, many modes of worship on the earth: but has not Islamism always remained a distinct system of faith from the false creeds?
43817What sayest thou of these?"
43817What was to be done?
43817Where are the three hills which first met the view of the pilgrims as they sailed up its bay?
43817Which of you three, then, is the greatest object of love to the other two?
43817Your highness listens?"
43817Your highness now, I trust, thoroughly comprehends my reason for not answering your question in a direct manner?"
43817and_ when_?
43817cried the king,"thou knowest, then, Seer, What yon strange oracle reveals?"
43817demanded Sal- ad- Deen;"I presume the final decision of the question hung upon his arbitration?"
43817does this ring, which should awaken love in all, act with an inward influence only, not an outward?
43817he thought:--Life is a boon Given, and resumed-- but_ how_?
43817interrupted the sultan indignantly,"this to me?
46671For where should the Scots lerne policie and skill to defend themselues, if they had not their bringing vp and training in France?

46670The king herevpon demanded if his sonne were slaine, hurt, or felled to the earth?
44864But is he not your servant?
44864But suppose anything should break, or a linchpin should give way and let a wheel loose?
44864But who has effected all this improvement in your paving?
44864Guarded and lighted?
44864How is Paddy''s leg?
44864Just in time, your honour, here she comes-- them there grey horses; where''s your luggage?
44864Pray, sir,says he,"have you any_ slow_ coach down this road to- day?"
44864Then we shall have no more galloping-- no more springing them as you term it?
44864Very fast?
44864What coach, your honour?
44864What did that rascally waiter mean by telling me this was a slow coach? 44864 What do you charge per mile posting?"
44864What room in the Regulator?
44864What will you take, sir? 44864 [ 10]"That''s the coach for me; pray what do you call it?"
44864''"And pray, my good sir, what sort of horses may you have over the next stage?"
44864''However, he is now seated; and"What_ gentleman_ is going to drive us?"
44864But what does he see?
44864Death and destruction before his eyes?
44864Do you not mean the basket?
44864Have you no coach that does not carry luggage on the top?"
44864If among all these difficulties, then, he, by degrees, became a drunkard, who can wonder at his becoming so?
44864Mutton- chops, veal- cutlets, beef- steaks, or a fowl( to kill?)"
44864Pray, what''s that?
44864Recovering, however, a little from his surprise--"My dear sir,"said he,"you told me we were to change horses at Hounslow?

44864There was--''Now, ladies and gentlemen, what would you like to take?

41978Can I do it? 41978 Could we see it if we went there?"
41978Do you believe in fairies?
41978Do you mean four Irish miles?
41978Do you suppose it was really the work of giants, children?
41978How else could he have had the power to move every one by his words? 41978 Indade, whatever else could it be, sir?
41978Is n''t it grand to be travelling like that, Katie?
41978What is it, what is it?
41978What use would it be to spend much time on it?

41978Did ye ever hear tell of the famine?"
41978Did you ever hear of the Blarney Stone?
41978Do you know what a giant is?"
41978Do you know what peat is?
41978Do you see the joke?
41978Had he been asleep?
41978Had he really found a way of defeating the fairies?
41978How can I help my country?"
41978How could any father refuse when children begged like that?
41978Is it a true story?
41978Is it any wonder that the generous people whom she visited always had something to give and a kind word to speak to her?
41978Mollie says can I go with her for a day at Killarney?"
41978Sure, what else could the good news be?"
41978Then what?
41978What do you suppose the king replied?
41978What was the meaning of the fire?
41978What will the money buy yez now?
41978Who could have dared to disobey the king?
41978Who could tell?
41978Who would duck for the apples?
41978was it all a dream, like that of Norah''s?

46667The king asked of the maior what he thought of those articles?

46668And therefore being called afore the iustices about this matter, he appeared, and being asked"by what right he held his lands?"

45951What do you think of this agreement?
45951What, Mr. Price,said he,"will you then bring my neck to the block for the King, and ruin our whole design by engaging too rashly?"
45951At last the question was put,"That this House do approve the proceeding of Colonel Monk?"
45951Did he intend to be mayor of the palace to a_ roi fainéant_?
45951How could it then withstand the King?
45951The only question was, would the great man condescend to accept the appointment?
45951The whole question was, what Parliament did he mean to restore?
45951To whom was the duty of his place?
45951Was this the solution of Monk''s extraordinary conduct?
45951What did it mean?
45951What did the fleet mean to do?
45951What was to prevent him suddenly joining hands with the rebels and turning with the whole army upon the Parliament?
45951Who could tell he would stand staunch at that trying moment?
45951cried Monk angrily,"do you lay the blame on me?
43546All about lions and elephants?
43546And he will be here for''Hogmanay;''wo n''t we have the fun?
43546But if no one claims him I can keep him, ca n''t I?
43546Ca n''t you see a castle yonder?
43546Castles were always built on high hills, were they not?
43546Did you ever see a finer pup than that?
43546Do n''t you want to put your package in the luggage- rack?
43546Do you see a heart carved on that stone yonder?
43546Do you suppose, Sandy MacPherson, that I''d be carrying a rat around like this? 43546 Do you think that Uncle Clarke will get here in time?"
43546How do you know?
43546How would you like to see Holyrood Palace, where Queen Mary lived?
43546Indeed he did, and you would like to see his old home, would n''t you, Don?
43546Is n''t it strange what wee bits of rooms kings and queens lived in? 43546 Is n''t the piper splendid, father?"
43546Sandy says that he does not believe that''Rob Roy''was a real person; but he was, and lived right here, did n''t he, Uncle Alan?
43546Sandy, what on earth have you got in that bundle that you have been carrying so carefully ever since we left home?
43546Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? 43546 Was she a real person, father?"
43546Well, dearies, what do you think your mother would like?
43546What on earth is it,--a rat?
43546What''s the matter with the MacPhersons?
43546What''s up?
43546Where are those children?
43546Where are we going now, uncle?
43546Why did n''t he write to me, too?
43546You know that lane which leads to the widow Calden''s house? 43546 *****Is that Robert Burns''s house?"
43546Eh, lassies?"
43546Not much was said for a time but"Please pass that,"and"Please pass this,"and"Is n''t this good?"
43546Sandy, what do you think I have got here?"
43546So it was, and when Marjorie opened it what do you suppose gravely walked out?
43546The poor, wee bairn whined, and was so glad when I picked him up, I could not leave him there alone, could I?"
43546They all look alike, having been painted by some bold artist from imagination; which seems a strange thing to have done, does it not?
43546What was it all about?
43546When is he coming?
43546Whom do you think we shall have with us for the New Year?"
43546Would you not think he would be cold, with his knees bared to the cold east wind which blows over the castle high up on its rock?
43546and wo n''t we have a good time?"
43546but he''s a bonnie one; who gave him to you, Don?"
43546of England, but he is Edward I. of Scotland, because we never had another king by the name of Edward before him; is it not so, father?"
43546suddenly said Donald, with his mouth full of shortbread,"I can train him to be a sheep- dog, ca n''t I?
43546they are going to drill; ca n''t we stay and watch them awhile?"
43546what do you think?"
43546what is all this about?"

46106Afterwards the question may properly be asked: What value can we ascribe to the Parliament as an element in the life of the nation?
46106How did the clan- system of the tenth century pass, in the Lowlands, into the family- system of the twelfth?
46106How far by the three hundred years of alliance with France?
46106How far was constitutional development in Scotland affected by the short- lived union under Edward I?
46106The St. James''s Gazette_ says_:--"One of the commonest questions asked us by people is,''Can you tell us of a good English dictionary?''....
46106To what circumstances are we to attribute this development?
46106What was the precise nature of the threat implied in the warning that a man who neglected the king''s ordinances should lose his court for evermore?
46106What was the real signification of these charters themselves, and what privileges did they confer?
46106Who were the good men who formed the community of the kingdom, and on whose advice the kings granted charters and liberties?
45611And if he did it with ten thousand torments, who shall be so hardie as to expostulate and reason why he so dooth?
45611But what and he call it an horne, where am I then?
45611The fox that saw him run so fast, asked him whither he made all that hast?
45611Then said the king merilie to them; What sirs, be ye in bed so soone?
45611Was not his first enterprise to obteine the crowne begun and incepted by the murther of diuerse noble, valiant true, and vertuous, personages?
45611What mercie is in him that sleieth his trustie fréends as well as his extreame enimies?
45611What preuaileth a handfull to a whole realme?
45611What vertue is in him which was the confusion of his brother, and murtherer of his nephues?
45611What will you make of them?
45611Who can haue confidence in him which putteth diffidence in all men?

45611whom shall a man trust?
46742Where are the small country gentry?
46742But what of the Wiley, or Wylye?
46742thou wanderer thro''the woods, How often has my spirit turned to thee?
43061And what be they vur, then?
43061Had you, Father, hid away In your heart, some load to bury, That you chose so long to stay, World- forgot and solitary?
43061Have you got a''vizzyvizze''?
43061Tell, when all the boughs were bare, Did you dread each dreary waking? 43061 Warm, b''aint it?"
43061What be the use,said he,"of wasting the public money sending round men to talk about a dairy as do n''t know a cow from a elephant?
43061What be the use,said one,"of they Drainage Commissioners, what charges we two and eightpence poundage for keeping the water off of we?
43061... Might anything be kept that was picked up?

43061And the girls?
43061And when we risk our lives to save the cargo, who has a better right to a share of it than we?"
43061As day grew''twixt dawn and dark Did the shy birds learn to love you?
43061Did you mark the flashing white On the breast of earliest swallows, Or the wavering, yellow light On the cowslips in the hollows?
43061Did you sometimes, in the night, Rise and quit your quiet shieling, Climbing up the grassy height With a still, expectant feeling?
43061Do n''t you mind Lucy Passmore, as charmed your warts for you when you was a boy?"
43061Do they dream, these snails?
43061Do they in slumber enjoy again the midnight raid upon the marrow- bed, or cry havoc on the choicest lilies of the garden?
43061Do visions of plump cabbages and brilliant dahlias flit through their molluscous minds?
43061Hewing out your stony stair, Were you glad at thorn- buds breaking?
43061In days to be will she"... start from her slumber When gusts shake the door?"
43061Is it only fancy, or is there really a note of protest and impatience in their snatches of clear- cut speech?
43061Perhaps they were the arbitrators-- who knows?

43061Shall us get there by candle light?
43061Should we be so ungracious, he asks, as to return no thanks at all because a gift turned out to be smaller than we expected?
43061That small figure now, that dainty little golden- haired darling, for her what have the years in store?
43061Was he a surly recluse, fond of solitude and silence?
43061Was he the Father of the village, summoned from his cell to shrieve the dying, bless the dead?
43061Was there ever such a drowsy sound?
43061Were you ever tired-- or lazy?
43061What have the years in store for that young fisherman?
43061What is the sea without its sound?
43061What of the girls?
43061What would you?
43061When the burning noontide sun Made the gorge grow hot and hazy Did you wish your work were done?
43061When you sat beside your door In the dusk, you ancient man, you, Did the broad- leaved sycamore Wave and rustle low to fan you?
43061Where the wind went whispering by Underneath pale stars that glisten, From the open, upper sky Did God speak, and did you listen?"
43061Where will they be in twenty years?
43061Who could render the swift changes of colour that wind and sun are weaving with their magical loom over the wide expanse?
43061Who was he?
43061Will days that are coming see one more stone set up in memory of a sailor lost at sea?
43061Will his grave be here?
29517And did n''t I just say as much?
29517And did n''t that American, Pettitt, play here?
29517And see there where those branches touch the water,she soon continued;"might not that have been the very place where poor Ophelia lost her life?
29517And then,broke in Betty, her face literally radiant,"do n''t you know how Little John finally robbed them?

29517Are n''t we glad we came, and are n''t Mrs. Pitt and Barbara and Philip good to us?
29517Are you sorry you proposed coming here?
29517Are your vans any bigger?
29517But did n''t they have any services at all in St. Paul''s Cathedral?
29517But how----?
29517But, Mother, is that really the same bench, and did Anne truly live here?
29517Can we have some?
29517Did Shakespeare fall over that stile when he was trying to climb it with the deer, and did they catch him then?
29517Did n''t Dr. Johnson live near here, too, Mother?
29517Did n''t I? 29517 Did n''t she die propped up on the floor in all her State robes?"
29517Did n''t you say that this was where King Alfred had them write the''Anglo- Saxon Chronicle''?
29517Did that stool belong to anybody?
29517Do n''t these trains seem different from ours, Betty?
29517Do you children remember those quaint little verses about Bow Bells?
29517Do you see that the walls are entirely of cedar wood from floor to ceiling? 29517 Do you suppose that jewels were sewn into the dress where those round holes are?"
29517Do you think you will like London?
29517Does n''t that describe it exactly?
29517Have Kew Gardens any story or history to them, or are they just famous because of their flowers?
29517Have n''t we time to walk in the gardens a little longer?
29517Have you ever seen Faneuil Hall Market in Boston?
29517He did pay him back after all, did n''t he? 29517 He lived here, did he?
29517Here we are, Mother; did they come?
29517Honor bright, do n''t you have many fires over here?
29517How do they ever find names enough to go around?
29517How in the world could they see to cook in such a dark place?
29517Is Dorothy at home?
29517Is n''t the''Tumble- down Stile''near here, Mother?
29517Is n''t there a proverb,''A loyal heart may be landed at Traitor''s Gate''?
29517Is n''t there any of it remaining?
29517Is n''t there any upstairs?
29517It could n''t be, could it? 29517 It is n''t any wonder that she looked like that, is it?
29517It was here in Nottingham that Will Stutely had his narrow escape, was n''t it?
29517It''s like Leicester''s Hospital at Warwick, only this is really more quaint, is n''t it? 29517 Let''s see,--that would be twenty- five dollars, would n''t it?
29517Oh, do you see that little river flowing through the meadows?
29517Oh, is that the John Gilpin in Cowper''s poem?
29517Oh, what''s this place?
29517Shall I point out the different flowers?
29517The fellow who burnt the cakes?
29517The name is curious, is n''t it?
29517This one here pictures the Seven Ages of Man, which Shakespeare describes in''As You Like It,''Do you see? 29517 Was it because so many monks went up there?"
29517Was there a real palace in the Tower?
29517Well, what do you think of it all, John?
29517Well, what do you think of that?
29517What did they do to those three Normans?
29517What for? 29517 What in the world does she mean?"
29517What in the world''s that?
29517What is that iron bar for?
29517What others?
29517What should you like to see first, Betty?
29517What sticks? 29517 What was it?"
29517What was that you said?
29517What went on here?
29517What''s that, Mother? 29517 What''s the use?
29517Where are we going now?
29517Where can one see such a scene?
29517Where do you mean to go, Philip?
29517Where was King Alfred buried, Mother?
29517Who was it that the guide told us was imprisoned near the Round Tower, and who fell in love with a lady whom he saw walking in the gardens? 29517 Whose keys?"
29517Why do they always stand there?
29517Why, do n''t you believe it, John?
29517Why, we ca n''t all get in there, can we?
29517Why, what can it be?
29517Why, what do you mean?
29517Why, what in the world''s the matter?
29517Will they put King Edward here, too, when he dies?
29517Will you please tell us what that was? 29517 Winchester has a cathedral, has n''t it?"
29517Would n''t you just know to look at her that she had been in the family all her life?
29517Would you rather be a Horse Guard, or a bus- driver, John?
29517Yes,said Mrs. Pitt, understanding at once;"do n''t you remember that in Scott''s''Ivanhoe''?

29517Anne Hathaway''s cottage is even more picturesque than its neighbors, or does this only seem so because of the associations which it has for all?
29517Are n''t they attractive?"
29517Are n''t they interesting?
29517Are you getting plenty of history, Betty, my dear?"
29517Ca n''t we?"
29517Ca n''t you fix her?
29517Ca n''t you imagine the two sitting over at that table, with Boswell not far away, patiently listening, quill in hand?
29517Come, shall we go in?"
29517Did I tell you that Guy and his faithful wife were buried together in the cave?"
29517Did they make it that way on purpose, do you think?"
29517Did you look in some of the tiny windows as we passed through?
29517Did you see the busts of Wellington and Marlborough in one of the other rooms, Philip?
29517Do all the boats have names like that?
29517Do n''t you agree that this square has had about as varied a history as is very well possible?"
29517Do n''t you all approve that plan?"

29517Do you, Barbara?
29517Each time this conversation follows:--"Who goes there?"
29517Have you never read it, John?
29517Have you noticed those little oriel windows of the gatehouse?
29517Have you the guidebook, Philip?
29517He must have fine stories to tell, does n''t he, Philip?

29517In spite of this, she insisted that she was quite happy, for she had her"good feather bed,"--and what more could she need?

45065Should a morning at Keswick be unemployed, or if the question should arise in the interval of wider explorations:"What shall I do to- day?"
45065Then who shall say whether the view from Helvellyn, Skiddaw, or Scafell is the most marvellous in its beauty?

15198A war?
15198After all, what are the matters we dispute with so much warmth?
15198Am I not to avail myself of whatever good is to be found in the world, because of the mixture of evil that will always be in it?
15198And pray, Sir, what in the world is equal to it?
15198And why should it be rejected, or even coldly and suspiciously received?
15198Are not the people of America as much Englishmen as the Welsh?
15198Are the Americana not as numerous?
15198Are they yet restored to it?
15198Are you to build no houses, because desperate men may pull them down upon their own heads?
15198But are the leaders of their faction more lenient to those who submit?
15198But for what end was that bill to linger beyond the usual period of an unopposed measure?
15198But how are the principles of any of these subdivisions applicable in the case before us?
15198But how should I appear to the_ voters_ themselves?
15198But how stands the matter in the mere attempt?
15198But how?
15198But if you stopped your grants, what would be the consequence?
15198But is it altogether wise to have no other bounds to your impositions than the patience of those who are to bear them?
15198But is it really true that government is always to be strengthened with the instruments of war, but never furnished with the means of peace?
15198But of what service is this observation to the cause of those that make it?
15198But suppose the requisitions are not obeyed?
15198But the question is not, whether their spirit deserves praise or blame,--what, in the name of God, shall we do with it?
15198But there is another serious part( what is not so?)
15198But were the Americans, then, not touched and grieved by the taxes, in some measure, merely as taxes?
15198But what has been the real condition of the old office of Secretary of State?
15198But what skill can members of Parliament obtain in that low kind of province?
15198But what will you feel, when you know from history how this statute passed, and what were the motives, and what the mode of making it?
15198But what( says the financier) is peace to us without money?
15198But your legislative authority is perfect with regard to America: was it less perfect in Wales, Chester, and Durham?
15198But, after all, are we equally sure that they are adverse to our Constitution as that our statutes are hostile and destructive to them?
15198But, it will be said, is not this American trade an unnatural protuberance, that has drawn the juices from the rest of the body?
15198Can they do more, or can they do worse, if we yield this point?
15198Did any of the several East India bills which have been successively produced since 1767 originate there?
15198Did any one dream of referring them, or any part of them, thither?
15198Did he cite this culprit before his tribunal?
15198Did he make a charge?
15198Did he produce witnesses?
15198Did it not lie against the reappointment, in the year 1780, upon the very same terms?
15198Did they toss it over the table?
15198Do not gentlemen know that the crown has not at present the grant of a single office under the Company, civil or military, at home or abroad?
15198Do they answer any purpose to the king?
15198Do they find any equality in all this?
15198Do they not at this instant call the present war and all its horrors a lenient and merciful proceeding?
15198Do they think that the service is stinted for want of liberal supplies?
15198Do we in these resolutions_ bestow_ anything upon Ireland?
15198Do we not know for certain, that the Americans are going on as fast as possible, whilst we refuse to gratify them?
15198Do you forget that in the very last year you stood on the precipice of general bankruptcy?
15198Do you imagine, then, that it is the Land- Tax Act which raises your revenue?
15198Do you mean to tax America, and to draw a productive revenue from thence?
15198Do you remember our commission?
15198Do you, after this, wonder that you have no weight and no respect in the colonies?
15198Does any one who hears me approve this scheme of things, or think there is common justice, common sense, or common honesty in any part of it?
15198Does evil so react upon good, as not only to retard its motion, but to change its nature?
15198Does it arrogate too much to the supreme legislature?
15198Does it lean too much to the claims of the people?
15198Does the poor solitary tea- duty support the purposes of this preamble?
15198Does this sort of chicanery become us?
15198Else why all these changes, modifications, repeals, assurances, and resolutions?
15198Else why were the duties first reduced to one third in 1764, and afterwards to a third of that third in the year 1766?
15198Else, what is it more than to avow to them, and to the world, that you guard them from others only to make them a prey to yourself?
15198For on what grounds can you deliberate either before or after the proposition?
15198For on what principle does it stand?
15198For what can be discovered which is not to their disgrace?
15198For what end does Necker carry on this delusion?
15198For what is it but a scheme for taxing the colonies in the antechamber of the noble lord and his successors?
15198For what is it they would have?
15198Gentlemen, was I not to foresee, or foreseeing, was I not to endeavor to save you from all these multiplied mischiefs and disgraces?
15198Has it not hitherto been true in the colonies?
15198Has seven years''struggle been yet able to force them?
15198Has the Company ever troubled themselves to inquire whether their sales can bear the payment of that interest, and at that rate of exchange?
15198Has the disorder abated?
15198Has this been the law of our past, or is it to be the terms of our future connection?
15198Have their velvet bags and their red boxes been so full that nothing more could possibly be crammed into them?
15198Have these successes induced us to alter our mind, as thinking the season of victory not the time for treating with honor or advantage?
15198Have they ever attended to this principle?
15198Have we an example on record of a House of Commons punished for its servility?
15198Have you attempted to govern America by penal statutes?
15198He has said that the Americans are our children, and how can they revolt against their parent?
15198Here is a new species of crime invented, that of countenancing a belief,--but a belief of what?
15198How did that fact, of their paying nothing, stand, when the taxing system began?
15198How long it will continue in this state, or what may arise out of this unheard- of situation, how can the wisest of us conjecture?
15198How much have you lost by the participation of Scotland in all your commerce?
15198How, then, can I think it sufficient for those which are infinitely greater, and infinitely more remote?
15198If both were bad, why has this ministry incurred all the inconveniences of both and of all schemes?
15198If froward men should refuse this cure, can they vitiate anything but themselves?
15198If it be a crime, why is it delivered into private hands to pardon without discretion, or to punish without mercy and without measure?
15198If so, why were they almost all either wholly repealed or exceedingly reduced?
15198If that sovereignty and their freedom can not be reconciled, which will they take?
15198If the Board was not concerned in such things, in what particular was it thought fit that it should be concerned?
15198If the insolvency be no crime, why is it punished with arbitrary imprisonment?
15198If the principle of the repeal was not good, why are we not at war for a real, substantial, effective revenue?
15198If this be the case, ask yourselves this question: Will they be content in such a state of slavery?
15198If we repent of our good actions, what, I pray you, is left for our faults and follies?
15198If we should be able, by dexterity, or power, or intrigue, to disappoint the expectations of our constituents, what will it avail us?
15198In all the articles of American contraband trade, who ever heard of the smuggling of red lead and white lead?
15198In this perplexity, what shall we do, Sir, who are willing to submit to the law he gives us?
15198In what manner is the dignity of the nobility concerned in these principalities?
15198In what year of our Lord are the proportions of payments to be settled?
15198Is America in rebellion?
15198Is Ireland united to the crown of Great Britain for no other purpose than that we should counteract the bounty of Providence in her favor?
15198Is a politic act the worse for being a generous one?
15198Is all authority of course lost, when it is not pushed to the extreme?
15198Is it a certain maxim, that, the fewer causes of dissatisfaction are left by government, the more the subject will be inclined to resist and rebel?
15198Is it a way of soothing_ others_, to assure them that you will take good care of_ yourself_?
15198Is it for this that we are at war,--and in such a war?
15198Is it not the same virtue which does everything for us here in England?
15198Is it not true in Ireland?
15198Is it on that ground that our anger is to be kindled by their offered kindness?
15198Is it on that ground that they are to be subjected to penalties, because they are willing by actual merit to purge themselves from imputed crimes?
15198Is it quite fair to suppose that I have no other motive for yielding to them but a desire of acting_ against_ my constituents?
15198Is it the force of the kingdom they call for?
15198Is it to lower the estimation of the crown he serves, and to render his own administration contemptible?
15198Is it true that no case can exist in which it is proper for the sovereign to accede to the desires of his discontented subjects?
15198Is no concession proper, but that which is made from your want of right to keep what you grant?
15198Is not the supply there stated as effectually abandoned as if the tea- duty had perished in the general wreck?
15198Is the Company so much as a good commissary to their own armies?
15198Is there anything peculiar in this case, to make a rule for itself?
15198Is this collusion from its want of rigor and strictness and great regularity of form?
15198Is this description too hot or too cold, too strong or too weak?
15198Is this done?
15198Is this equality?
15198Is this equality?
15198Is this principle to be true in England and false everywhere else?
15198Is this true?
15198My sole question, on each clause of the bill, amounts to this:--Is the measure proposed required by the necessities of India?
15198Nay, for years have they not actually authorized in their servants a total indifference as to the prices they were to pay?
15198Now where is the revenue which is to do all these mighty things?
15198Now, Sir, what will the adversary say to both these acts?
15198Shall that reason not be given?
15198Should he name his adversaries?
15198Should he name those to execute his plans who are the declared enemies to the principles of his reform?
15198Should he name those whom he can not trust?
15198Spurn it as a derogation from the rights of legislature?
15198The colleagues whom he had assorted at the same boards stared at each other, and were obliged to ask,--"Sir, your name?"
15198The question now, on all this accumulated matter, is,--Whether you will choose to abide by a profitable experience or a mischievous theory?
15198They will ask, What conduct ends in neglect, disgrace, poverty, exile, prison, and gibbet?
15198They will ask, What is the road to power, credit, wealth, and honors?
15198To what do you attribute the strong part taken by the ministers, and, along with the ministers, by several of their most declared opponents?
15198To what end, Sir, does the office of_ removing wardrobe_ serve at all?
15198To what service is it applied?
15198To whom, then does the example of an execution in England for this American rebellion apply?
15198To whom, then, would I make the East India Company accountable?
15198Treat it as an affront to government?
15198Was I an Irishman on that day that I boldly withstood our pride?
15198Was anybody so ridiculous as even to think of it?
15198Was it to be adjourned until a fanatical force could be collected in London, sufficient to frighten us out of all our ideas of policy and justice?
15198Was it to be delayed until a rabble in Edinburgh should dictate to the Church of England what measure of persecution was fitting for her safety?
15198Were they instantly restored to trade?
15198Were they not named as commissioners for that express purpose?
15198Were they not touched and grieved by the Stamp Act?
15198Were they not touched and grieved even by the regulating duties of the sixth of George the Second?
15198What advances have we made towards our object, by the sending of a force, which, by land and sea, is no contemptible strength?
15198What advantage have we derived from the penal laws we have passed, and which, for the time, have been severe and numerous?
15198What did Parliament with this audacious address?--Reject it as a libel?
15198What does it signify to promote economy upon a measure, and to suffer it to be subverted in the principle?
15198What does it signify to turn abuses out of one door, if we are to let them in at another?
15198What does the gentleman say to it?
15198What equality?
15198What is it we have got by all our menaces, which have been many and ferocious?
15198What is the gross, what is the net produce?
15198What is to become of the Declaratory Act, asserting the entireness of British legislative authority, if we abandon the practice of taxation?
15198What more can you say of the obedience to any laws in any country?
15198What need I say more?
15198What obligation lay on me to be popular?
15198What partiality, what objects of the politics of the House of Lancaster, or of Cromwell, has his present Majesty, or his Majesty''s family?
15198What pleasure can they have in the execution of that kind of duty?
15198What power have they within any of these principalities, which they have not within their kingdom?
15198What rights have the subject there, which they have not at least equally in every other part of the nation?
15198What signify all those titles and all those arms?
15198What sort of article, think you, does he require this essential head of a solemn treaty of general pacification to be?
15198What then?
15198What then?
15198What was the consequence?
15198What was the consequence?
15198What will be thought, when you have fully before you the mode of accounting made use of in the Treasury of Bengal?
15198What will quiet these panic fears which we entertain of the hostile effect of a conciliatory conduct?
15198What will you do?
15198When they bear the burdens of unlimited monopoly, will you bring them to bear the burdens of unlimited revenue too?
15198Where could any man, conscious of his own inability to act alone, and willing to act as he ought to do, have arranged himself better?
15198Which of the innumerable regulations since made had their origin or their improvement in the Board of Trade?
15198Who are you, that should fret and rage, and bite the chains of Nature?
15198Who has ever heard of capitulation, and parole of honor, and exchange of prisoners in the late rebellions in this kingdom?
15198Who has presented, who can present, you with a clew to lead you out of it?
15198Who has said one word on this labyrinth of detail, which bewilders you more and more as you enter into it?
15198Whom should he name?
15198Why do not the commissioners restore them on the spot?
15198Why should I, when the things charged are among those upon which I found all my reputation?
15198Why should a_ jewel office_ exist for the sole purpose of taxing the king''s gifts of plate?
15198Why should an office of the_ robes_ exist, when that of_ groom, of the stole_ is a sinecure, and that this is a proper object of his department?
15198Why should you presume, that, in any country, a body duly constituted for any function will neglect to perform its duty, and abdicate its trust?
15198Why?
15198Why?
15198Why?
15198Will not this, Sir, very soon teach the provinces to make no distinctions on their part?
15198Will these gentlemen of the direction animadvert on the partners of their own guilt?
15198Will they tell us what they call indulgences?
15198Will you lay new and heavier taxes by Parliament on the disobedient?
15198Will you tax the tobacco of Virginia?
15198Would twenty shillings have ruined Mr. Hampden''s fortune?
15198You will force them?

15198does it not formally reject all future taxation on that principle?
15198does it not state the ministerial rejection of such principle of taxation, not as the occasional, but the constant opinion of the king''s servants?
15198does not this letter adopt and sanctify the American distinction of_ taxing for a revenue_?
15198does the electric force of virtual representation more easily pass over the Atlantic than pervade Wales, which lies in your neighborhood?

41146It''s very fine to say,''Subscribe To Andrews''--can''t you read? 41146 Well, then,"replied the duellist,"did_ you_ black- ball me?"
41146Well,said Douglas Jerrold,"how much does---- want this time?"
41146What noise is that?
41146What would you have me do?
41146Who, Sir?
41146[ 31] There is another version of the epigram on Tom Onslow:--Say, what can Tommy Onslow do?
41146''When_ will_ you dine at home, my dove?''
41146''_ He''ll be of us!_''growled he;''how does he know we will_ permit_ him?
41146--"Are you?"
41146--"My good Sir,"answered the Admiral,"how could you suppose such a thing?"
41146--"Why should you wish any such thing?"

41146Besides, what is a turbot?"
41146Brookes?"
41146But on what terms did Cibber live with this society?
41146But, it may be asked, how came the Society to associate so freely pleasure with graver pursuits?
41146Can Tommy Onslow do no more?
41146Can Tommy Onslow do no more?
41146Can anything be more paltry than that bay- window from which the members of White''s contemplate the cabstand and the Wellington Tavern?
41146Can little T. O. do no more?
41146Did you see that man who has just gone out?
41146Dryden, some twenty years after the above date, asks:"What right has any man to meet in factious Clubs to vilify the Government?"
41146Fitzgerald now went up to each individual member, and put the same question_ seriatim_,"Did you black- ball me, Sir?"
41146Fitzroy Stanhope, Colonel Spicer, Colonel Sibthorpe,_ cum multis aliis_, been thrown away upon persons who have looked up to them as protectors?
41146George Selwyn says,''What a horrid idea he will give us of the people in Newgate?''"
41146Have you ever been concerned with any of them?
41146He could not help continually asking questions about it-- what was going on there?--whether he was ever the subject of conversation?
41146Is it older than Gifford?"
41146Now, I wonder what I shall have.--What do you think they will give me, Sir Philip?"
41146The tax on_ malt_''s the cause I hear-- But what has_ malt_ to do with_ beer_?"
41146Thomas Kenyon, Sir Henry Parnell, and Mr. Maddox?
41146Was he dead or not?
41146Was it not admirable?
41146Was there a watchman took his hourly rounds Safe from their blows, or new- invented wounds?
41146We see the eyes and the nose moving with convulsive twitches; we see the heavy form rolling; we hear it puffing; and then comes the''Why, Sir?''
41146What a favourable idea people must have of White''s!--and what if White''s should not deserve a much better?"
41146What would the Devonshire road have been, but for the late Sir Charles Bamfylde, Sir John Rogers, Colonel Prouse, Sir Lawrence Palk, and others?
41146Who has not heard the Scourer''s midnight fame?
41146Who has not trembled at the Mohock''s name?
41146and the''What then, Sir?''
41146are the weak endeavours of a few to oppose the daily inroads of fricassees and soup- maigres?"
41146exclaimed Thrale, with surprise:"Mr. Garrick-- your friend, your companion-- black- ball him?"
41146what can thee withstand?
41146what is a turbot?"
46429Does it not contain,says the proud inhabitant,"nearly fifteen thousand souls?"
46429An obelisk, surmounted by a crown, and placed upon four stone balls, stands near the harbour entrance, and commemorates-- what?
46429Beyond this-- what?
46429But, reader, what would you?
46429For what is Youghal famous, say the untravelled?
46429How could it be?
46429In the House of Commons he asked:"Was it necessary to dread any dire political consequences from the spread of the Celtic renaissance?
46429Is this Irish humour, or is it an indication of Irish poverty?
46429Swift was born in Dublin at a house in Hoey''s Court, now(?)
46429The king''s coming?
46429Whether this be acceptable to the average reader or not, whether he remarks the similarity between certain of the Celtic(?)
46429Who does not know the famous Irish linen?
46429Without potatoes and tobacco, what might not have happened to the British race long before now?
45709Do I not know my Lord Marquis of Montrose? 45709 Why are we lingering here, my dear lord,"he said aloud,"when our friend Macdonald is driving the enemy before him on the right?
45709Why,sneered this brutal fellow,"is James Graham so careful of his locks?"
45709And what was to come of it?
45709But now that the bishops had gone, by whom was this influence to be exercised?
45709But what army commanded by a debating club ever escaped discomfiture and disgrace?"
45709But what was the danger, and from what quarter did it come?
45709But who would undertake to account for those who should be his friends?
45709Doth it not often happen to the righteous according to the way of the unrighteous?
45709Doth not sometimes a just man perish in his righteousness, and a wicked man prosper in his wickedness and malice?

45709Was the plan he had been urging for the last twelve months on unheeding ears still practicable?
45709What man among them would venture to call his sovereign an enemy?
45709What then?
45709Which side was a young man of his rank, position, and temper likely to take in the approaching conflict?
45709Would he be more successful now?
10352And how shall we regain our honour, or retrieve our wealth, by engaging in another war more dangerous but less necessary?
10352And if it be an act of generosity, why should this nation alone be obliged to sacrifice her own interest to that of others?
10352And if it shall appear to us that our thanks are merited, who shall restrain us from offering them in the most publick and solemn manner?
10352And may not he be left to suffer the consequences of his own confession?
10352And may not that suspicion deprive him of the benefit of the act?
10352And what then are we required to do more than has been always done by our ancestors, on a thousand occasions of far less importance?
10352And whether they are_ as much to be depended upon_?
10352And why may not the captain of the vessel procure necessaries for money, without the assistance of a commissioner?
10352And why we have suffered their privateers in the mean time to rove at large over the ocean, and insult us upon our own coasts?
10352And why we robbed our merchants of their crews by rigorous impresses, without employing them either to guard our trade, or subdue our enemies?
10352And will not life and death, liberty and imprisonment, be placed in the hands of a committee of the commons?
10352And will not this be an extortion of evidence equivalent to the methods practised in the most despotick governments, and the most barbarous nations?
10352Are not our ships to pass a single league beyond their limits, in the honour or preservation of their country?
10352Are they to lie unactive within the sound of the battle, and wait for their enemies on this side the cape?
10352Are we sure of one positive active ally in the world?
10352But for those what regard has hitherto been shown?
10352But how is our present conduct agreeable to these principles?
10352But how much greater means for such a purpose, would an alternative like this afford?
10352But how, my lords, shall that monarch distinguish the interest of his people, whom none shall dare to approach with information?
10352But of the present scheme, what effect can be expected but ignominy and shame, disgrace abroad, and beggary at home?
10352But what advantages can our ministers boast of having obtained in twenty years by the means of their intelligence?
10352But what securities, my lords, are provided against the same evil in the bill before us?
10352But when this law is repealed, and every street and alley has a shop licensed to distribute this delicious poison, what can we expect?
10352But when, my lords, did any two actions, however common, agree in every circumstance?
10352But, my lords, in order to discover whether this consequence be necessary, it must first be inquired why the present law is of no force?
10352But, my lords, let us at last inquire to what it is to be imputed, that the present law swells the statute book to no purpose?
10352Can duties be paid without consumption of the commodity on which they are laid?
10352Did they not even refuse to march?
10352Did they suffer the queen of Hungary to be oppressed, only to show their own power and affluence by relieving her?
10352Do you intend to support the Pragmatick sanction?
10352First, whether they are_ as cheap_ as any other forces we can hire?
10352For how can any one prove that he has a claim to the indemnity?
10352For how can it be conceived that the Spaniards could have formed any real design of besieging port Mahon?
10352For to what purpose will it be to require their presence at a time at which we know it is impossible for them to comply with our orders?
10352For what end auxiliaries are hired, and why our armies are transported into Flanders?
10352For what, my lords, encourages any man to a crime but security from punishment, or what tempts him to the commission of it but frequent opportunity?
10352For what, my lords, must be the consequence, if this motion should be complied with?
10352For when did any man hear, that a commodity was prohibited by licensing its sale?
10352Have we destroyed the fleets of our enemies, fired their towns, and laid their fortresses in ruins?
10352He may, indeed, make some discoveries, but whether he does not conceal something, who can determine?
10352How could you prevent an understanding of this kind between two courts?
10352How cruel must all impartial spectators of the publick transactions account a prosecution like this?
10352How have any of his assertions been invalidated, or any of his reasons eluded?
10352How shall their privileges be supported, if when they are infringed, no man will complain?
10352If it be asked, what is farther to be expected from these troops?
10352If the abundance of our riches be such as it has been represented, why are no measures formed for the payment of the publick debts?
10352If the consumption of distilled spirits is to be hindered, how is the distillery to remain uninjured?
10352If the intention of cruising ships is to annoy the enemies of the nation, ought they to be deprived of the liberty of pursuing them?
10352If the trade of distilling is not to be impaired, what shall hinder the consumption of spirits?
10352If these maxims were once generally understood, from how much perplexity would our councils be set free?
10352If they are innocent, and far be it from me to declare them guilty without examination, whom will this inquiry injure?
10352If we conquered at Ramillies, were we not in our turn beaten at Almanza?
10352If we destroyed the French ships, was it not always with some loss of our own?
10352If, therefore, our assistance be an act of honesty, and granted in consequence of treaties, why may it not equally be required of Hanover?
10352If, therefore, this bill be considered and amended,( for why else should it be considered?)
10352In the late war with France, of which the conduct has been so lavishly celebrated, did no designs miscarry?
10352In what terms would they have expressed their gratitude for victory, who are thus thankful for disappointments and disgrace?"
10352Is any lord in this assembly willing that this nation should assist the queen of Hungary at the annual expense of sixteen hundred thousand pounds?
10352Is any lord in this assembly willing to assist the queen of Hungary at the expense of sixteen hundred thousand a year?
10352Is it your intention to restore the house of Austria to the full enjoyment of its former greatness?
10352Is there a gentleman in this house, who is not convinced that this power has been warped, for some time past, towards the interest of France?
10352It has been asked also, how any man can ascertain his claim to the indemnity?
10352It has been asked, why the troops of Hanover were preferred to those of any other nation?
10352It has, with regard to these troops, been asked by the noble lord who spoke last, what is the intent of this motion but to disband them?
10352May not a man, from want of memory, or presence of mind, omit something at his examination which he may appear afterwards to have known?
10352May not such reserves be suspected, when his answers shall not satisfy the expectations of his interrogators?
10352May they not be easily satisfied with informations of one man, and incessantly press another to farther discoveries?
10352Nay, are not we morally certain that our nearest, most natural ally, disavows the proceeding, and refuses to cooperate with us?
10352Next to the consideration of our inward domestick strength, what foreign assistances have we to justify this measure?
10352Next, whether they are as properly_ situated_?
10352Or by whom have they, within that period, not been deceived by false appearances?
10352Or how shall we assist the queen of Hungary, by collecting forces which dare not act against the only enemy which she has now to fear?
10352Or whether they are not unconnected with the principal question, and therefore insidious and dangerous?
10352Or why should the elector of Hanover exert his liberality at the expense of Britain?
10352Or why should we imagine that this law will be executed with less opposition than the last?
10352Sir, is it not natural for every one of us to guard our vital parts, rather than our more remote members?
10352That our design against Carthagena was defeated, can not be denied; but what war has been one continued series of success?
10352The next question that occurs, is, in what degree we ought to do it, and whether we should do it with our whole force?
10352The provision against the crime of wilfully springing a mast, is at least useless; for when did any man admit that he sprung his mast by design?
10352The question being then put, Whether the bill should be committed?
10352Then, whether they are_ as good_?
10352They think an army useless which gains no victories, and ask to what purpose the sword is drawn, if the blood of their enemies is not to be shed?
10352This crowd of transactions, so different in their nature, so various in their consequences, who can venture to approve in the gross?
10352Was it necessary to form an army to do nothing?
10352Was it probable that they would have sent an army, in defenceless transports, into the jaws of the British fleet?
10352We come now to consider, whether the Hanoverian troops should be made part of that force?
10352What are our views in supporting the queen of Hungary?
10352What but to be the first that shall destroy the constitution of the government, and give up that liberty which our ancestors established?
10352What can be the opinion of the publick, when they see an address of this house, by which new expenses are recommended?
10352What consequence can such declarations of our designs produce, but that of informing our enemies what force they ought to provide against us?
10352What effect can be expected from this bill, but that of exposing them to temptations, by placing unlawful pleasures in their view?
10352What else, indeed, can be intended by it, and what intention can be more worthy of this august assembly?
10352What has the war produced in its whole course from one year to another, but defeats, losses, and ignominy?
10352What is it but to enact that the ships shall be stationed in time of war as the commissioners of the admiralty shall determine and direct?
10352What is this, my lords, but once more to vote ourselves useless?
10352What is this, my lords, but to continue to the admiralty the power which has been always executed?
10352What man can doubt, who knows the attention of his majesty to military discipline?
10352What method could be devised by such a minister himself, to do the job more excellent than this?
10352What then can we suppose was the reason, that neither indignation, nor integrity, nor resentment, ever before directed a motion like this?
10352What then, my lords, is to be done?
10352What, my lords, do we_ hold_, or what have we_ taken_?
10352When I hear it asked by the noble lords, what effects have been produced by our armaments and expenses?
10352When we hired these troops in the last instance, did they not deceive us?
10352Where, my lords, can it be expected that malice like this will find an end?
10352Why forces unacquainted with the use of arms were sent against them, under the command of leaders equally ignorant?
10352Why should we imagine, that they anticipated every contingency, and left nothing for succeeding ages?
10352Why we did not rescue our sailors from captivity, when opportunities of exchange were in our power?
10352Why were not our troops sent which have been so long maintained at home only for oppression and show?
10352Why, my lords, should less be bought now than formerly?
10352Will any lord say that they have marched?
10352Will not the bill give an apparent opportunity for partiality?
10352With this view, my lords, it has been asked, why the Hanoverians are preferred to all other nations?
10352Would gentlemen advise the hire of Prussian troops to serve us in this conjuncture?
10352Would not all the officers and mariners on board the ship see that such a thing was wilfully done?
10352Would not every man immediately discover, that the witnesses were bribed, and therefore they would deserve no credit?
10352Would not they cry out--"You are springing the mast,"and prevent it, or discover the crime, and demand punishment?
10352Would not this have been generally asserted, and generally believed?
10352Would she not leave Flanders to shift for itself, or still to be taken care of by the Dutch and Britain?
10352Would they act at their own expense, would they exert their own proper force?
10352Would they pay their own troops in aid of the common cause, when they found this nation ready to do it for them?
10352Yet what was the effect, my lords, of all this diligence and vigour?
10352[ The speaker then put the question in form,"Is it your lordships''pleasure, that the third reading of the bill be put off for five days?"
10352_ Shall we hire_ Danes?
10352_ Shall we then hire_ Saxons?
10352_ That they are as good_, what man can doubt, who knows the character of the German nation?
10352and how can they be known, or at least, how can they be remembered in the heats of drunkenness?
10352and is there any other use of spirituous liquors than that of drinking them?
10352and lastly, whether the Hanoverian troops should be made a part of that force?
10352and whether the means that have already been used, deserve our approbation?
10352and why this pernicious trade is carried on with confidence and security, in opposition to the law?
10352how many thousands of our fellow- subjects would be preserved from slaughter?
10352if you should unhappily fall into the fire, would you caution your servants not to pull you out but by degrees?
10352leisure, that at length they may securely set us at defiance, and plunder our merchants without fear of vengeance?
10352nay, farther, are they not in all appearance now upon the point of being employed in a quarrel of their own?
10352or can it be imagined, that pity has prevailed over policy or cowardice?
10352or that to offer and refuse is the same action?
10352or with what propriety can we assume the title of legislators, if we are to pass a bill like this without examination?
10352out of so vast a grant?
10352then, whether we ought to do it with our whole force?
10352to this expense what limits can be set?
10352what but the immediate ruin of the house of Austria, by which the French ambition has been so long restrained?
10352what but the total destruction of the whole system of power which has been so laboriously formed and so strongly compacted?
10352what might she not be able to do with a million more?
10352what, but an inclination to aggrandize and enrich a contemptible province, and to deck with the plunder of Britain the electorate of Hanover?
10352when is there to be an end of paying troops who are not to march against our enemies?
10352why should they endeavour to intercept their existence, or suffer them to exist only to be wretched?
10352why should they endeavour to torture their limbs with pains, and load their lives with the guilt of their parents?
10352why should they hinder that trade to which they must owe all the comforts which plenty affords?
10352why they have been selected from all other troops, to fight, against France, the cause of Europe?
37153''Certainly,''said the Regent;''Georgina?''
37153''Do, ma''am?
37153''Do, ma''am?
37153''Has Mr. Childers ascertained anything on the subject of the beards?''
37153''Has your Majesty been riding to- day?''
37153''Has your Majesty got a nice horse?''
37153''I should like to know,''she exclaimed in triumphant scorn,''if they mean to give the_ Ladies_ seats in Parliament?''
37153''Is Sir Robert so weak,''she asked,''that even the Ladies must be of his opinion?''
37153''Or Elizabeth?''
37153''The Mistress of the Robes and the Ladies of the Bedchamber?''
37153''What am I to do if Lord Melbourne comes up to me?''
37153''What is your favourite tune?
37153''What''s that you''re drinking, sir?''
37153''Who is there?''
37153''Who is there?''
37153''Who the devil is to take out the maid of honour?''
37153''Why did n''t she send for the butler?''
37153''Why do n''t you drink wine?
37153''Your sister, Lady Frances Egerton, rides, I think, does n''t she?''
37153''[ 12] But, though the Prince might be dead, had he not left a vicegerent behind him?
37153''[ 14] But what did Lord Palmerston care?
37153''[ 45] How did she know?
37153A second Gloriana, did he call her?
37153After all, what else could she do?
37153Albert threw up his hands in shocked amazement: what could one do with such a man?
37153An anonymous pamphlet entitled''What does she do with it?''
37153And was he going to allow himself, his wife, his family, his whole existence, to be governed by Baroness Lehzen?
37153And why should they not last?
37153And, if the gentle virtue of an inward excellence availed so little, could he expect more from the hard ways of skill and force?
37153But had the Baron no misgivings?
37153But how could he choose the right person?
37153But the English Government appeared to adopt a neutral attitude; it was too bad; not to be for him was to be against him-- could they not see that?
37153But then-- supposing Palmerston refused to go?
37153But what could she do?
37153But why should it have been?
37153But would all go well?
37153But, indeed, why should there be any question of resisting?
37153Could he believe, in his blind arrogance, that even his ignominious dismissal from office was something that could be brushed aside?
37153Did Lord Palmerston forget that she was Queen of England?
37153Did he never wonder whether, perhaps, he might have accomplished not too little but too much?
37153Did he possess the magic bridle which would curb that fiery steed?
37153Did he smile as he wrote the words?
37153Did she not understand that the consort of a constitutional sovereign must not be frivolous?
37153Did she wonder in her heart of hearts how the Deity could have dared?
37153Greville?''
37153Had he not asked Albert to succeed him as Commander- in- Chief?
37153Had he not been a supporter of good Sir Robert?
37153Had not Sir James Clark assured her that all would be well?
37153Had she really once loved London and late hours and dissipation?
37153Had she won?
37153Had the Prince forgotten the noble aims to which his life was to be devoted?
37153He had run through everything, and yet-- if Peel went out, he might be sent for-- why not?
37153His colleagues observed another symptom-- was it of his irresponsibility or his wisdom?
37153How could she ever have dreamt of setting up her will against his wisdom, her ignorance against his knowledge, her fancies against his perfect taste?
37153How could she tolerate a state of affairs in which despatches written in her name were sent abroad without her approval or even her knowledge?
37153How could they have guessed that he had spent the night before diligently getting up the details of their case?
37153How much does the bucket understand the well?
37153Humanity and fallibility are infectious things; was it possible that Lehzen''s prim pupil had caught them?
37153IV Words and books may be ambiguous memorials; but who can misinterpret the visible solidity of bronze and stone?
37153No doubt; but was that all?
37153Of a boy with such a record, what else could be supposed?
37153She was Queen of England, and was not that enough?
37153Six years before, what would she have said, if a prophet had told her that the day would come when she would be horrified by the triumph of the Whigs?
37153Some absolute, some ineffable sympathy?
37153Some extraordinary, some sublime success?
37153That she was beginning to listen to siren voices?
37153That the secret impulses of self- expression, of{ 93} self- indulgence even, were mastering her life?
37153The Prince was interested in foreign affairs?
37153The excuse was worse than the fault: was he the wife and she the husband?
37153The factory children?
37153The purest intentions and the justest desires?
37153There were very good reasons for keeping the Irish in their places; but what had that to do with it?
37153They could hardly believe it; was it possible that they had made a mistake, and that Albert was a{ 150} good fellow after all?
37153Those functions and powers had become, in effect, his; and{ 180} what sort of use was he making of them?
37153To bully the Queen, to order her about, to reprimand her-- who could dream of venturing upon such audacities?
37153Was a statue or an institution to be preferred?
37153Was it possible, then, that all was over?
37153Was it possible?
37153Was not such a course of conduct, far from being a temptation, simply_ selon les régles_?
37153Was she indeed about to see Lord M. for the last time?
37153Was there not a foreigner in the highest of high places, a foreigner whose hostility to their own adored champion was unrelenting and unconcealed?
37153Well, she would make an effort....''But what am I to do if Victoria asks me to shake hands with Lehzen?''
37153What benefits, it was asked, did the nation reap to counterbalance the enormous sums which were expended upon the Sovereign?
37153What did Lord M. think?
37153What did Palmerston know of economics, of science, of history?

46385Funds are accumulating for a restoration of this church; but, unless the people come back to the land, why expend so much good money?
46385He stood in front of what was then the the Chapel of St. Benedict, and calmly asked,"Reginald, why do you come into my church armed?"
46385How different this from Horace Walpole''s description of the place in 1755:"How shall I describe Netley to you?
46385How should it be?
46385Is there not something radically wrong with England when a farmer''s wife can make such a speech as that, and not think it strange?
46385Modern refinement subsequently euphemised the name into''East- street''; but''what''s in a name?''
46385Satire is writ large, in a fine bold Roman hand, over that description of the Military Canal, is it not?
46385Then, falling over a monk, came an oath, from FitzUrse, and the question,"Where is the Archbishop?"
46385There are, it is true, few places so interesting as Sheppey, but why, apart from its history?
46385To whom will you leave us?"
46385What do they find?
46385What is there of Ivychurch?
46385What says Ingoldsby of the canal?
46385What was that which wrought such enmity between such old- time friends?
46385What, then, do we know of Stonar?
46385What?
46385Where are the"York"or the"Ship"to- day?
46385Where is that harbour of which some vestiges remained to the time of Elizabeth?
46385Where, then, are the others of his household?
46385Who that ever has sojourned in the west, and has known lovely Devon, would for a moment give Kent that pride of place?
46385_ Can_ they be, indeed?
46385that haven which, according to Leland, was"strayt for passage owt of Boloyn?"
18192But I have paid myself by a bribe; I have taken another man''s money; and I call upon your justice-- to do what? 18192 But why not destroy them, or give them up to the Company, and say you were paid, which would have been the only truth in this transaction?
18192Did you deliver them so indorsed into the treasury?
18192Pray, Madam, where did you find it?
18192Receive a bribe? 18192 What are you?--stones?
18192Where did you lose this bodkin?
18192Where is it? 18192 Who is Gunga Govind Sing?"
18192Why, is there not a cabooleat?
18192And as to the man,--is Mr. Hastings a man against whom a charge of bribery is improbable?
18192And do you wonder, my Lords, that such guests and such hosts are difficult to be divided?
18192And how came he, two years after, when he does tell you that it was the Company''s and not his own, to alter the public accounts?
18192And how did it turn out in fact?
18192And how does he recommend him to be rewarded?
18192And how does he seek to relieve that want?
18192And how is it managed?
18192And now was this scandalous and ruinous traffic in bribes brought to light by the Court of Directors?
18192And of what was this to be a report?
18192And then the inferences which are to follow these implied facts are to follow them-- But how?
18192And what is his new arrangement?
18192And who do you think was the next public officer he appointed?
18192And who is the accountant whom he produces?
18192And why?
18192Another?
18192Any base purpose, any desertion of public duty?
18192Are these the accounts we should expect from such a man?
18192Are these things to pass as matters of course?
18192At the end of five years what do you think was the failure?
18192Before he left Calcutta, in July, 1784[ 1781?
18192Being thus driven to the wall, he says,"Why do you not form yourselves into a committee?
18192But do not your Lordships see that this is an entire mistake?
18192But does he adhere to his old pretence of freedom to the Nabob?
18192But how can they restore it?
18192But in what condition are we now?
18192But in what court can a suit be instituted, and against whom, for the recovery of this balance of 40,000_l._ out of 95,000_l._?
18192But reversing this, and taking their applause first, let us see on what does he ground his hope of their applause?
18192But some have so managed the affair, that, when you inquire who the farmer is,--Was such a one farmer?
18192But the principal question is this:--"On what account was the one lac and a half given to the Governor- General which you have laid to his account?
18192But was it an entertainment upon a visit?
18192But was it even then entered regularly upon the Company''s accounts?
18192But was there no application made to Mr. Hastings upon that occasion?
18192But were they then cancelled?
18192But what does he say to the Directors?
18192But what end could his being inaccurate answer?
18192But what is Mr. Hastings''s account of Rajah Debi Sing?
18192But what is an inaccurate_ accountant_ good for?
18192But what is his answer, when three years after he is desired to produce this account?
18192But what was the price of that concession?
18192But what was the real state of the case?
18192But what was to entitle him to their applause?
18192But who ever saw them?
18192But why did he not deliver them up entirely, when he was going upon that service?
18192But why had not you an order of the Governor- General and Council?
18192But, after all, do you find any clear discovery?
18192Can he make any laws to prevent it?
18192Can he open any inquiry?
18192Can the power that crushed and destroyed them?
18192Can your Lordships believe that this can be any other than a systematical, deliberate fraud, grossly conducted?
18192Cantoo Baboo?
18192Did Mr. Hastings obey that order?
18192Did Mr. Hastings pretend to say that he destroyed the Provincial Councils for their corruptness or insufficiency, when he dissolved them?
18192Did Mr. Hastings vest these offices in him?
18192Did he do so?
18192Did he improve the internal state of the government by great reforms?
18192Did he owe nothing to himself?
18192Did he owe nothing to the legislature,--did he owe nothing to your Lordships, and to the House of Commons, who had appointed him?
18192Did he owe nothing to the world, as to its opinion, to which every public man owes a reputation?
18192Did he so?
18192Did it answer in an increase of the revenue?
18192Did she keep any accounts?
18192Did they not want to pursue and to revive those dormant prosecutions?
18192Do I want any other presumption of his guilt, upon such an occasion, than such conduct as this?
18192Do we attempt to conceal them from your Lordships?
18192Do we want a cause, my Lords?
18192Do we want a tribunal?
18192Do you know anything about it?
18192Do you perceive anything in their local situation that should distinguish them from other provinces of Bengal?
18192Do you think that they were chosen as a little demesne for Mr. Hastings?
18192Do you want a criminal, my Lords?
18192Do you want more proof than this violent transgression of the Company''s orders upon that occasion that some corrupt motive must have influenced him?
18192Do you wonder that such visits, when so well paid for and well provided for, were naturally long?
18192Do your Lordships believe that it was conscious innocence that made him endure such reproaches, so recorded, from his own colleague?
18192Does he, my Lords?
18192For fear of what?
18192For what says Mr. Hastings?
18192For why did not Mr. Larkins get the whole of that paper read and translated?
18192Has he enlarged the boundary of our government?
18192Has there, at this moment, any light broken in upon you concerning this matter?
18192Hastings?--five, ten, twenty, forty per cent?
18192Have I not men to deal with?
18192He goes on to say( and the threat is indeed alarming) that by calling him to account they may provoke him-- to what?
18192He is asked,"How came you to take bonds for this money, if it was not your own?
18192He is hurt at it; he considers it as a cruel treatment of him; he says,"Have I deserved this treatment?"
18192Here there is no mention made of the name of the person who had the cabooleat: whom can they call upon?
18192Here we have more light; but does Mr. Larkins anywhere tell you anything about Nuddea?
18192How are we to account for this gross inaccuracy?
18192How came he, I say, to be so wicked a servant, that, out of sixty- eight divisions, he chose only three to supply the exigencies of the Company?
18192How was the truth of his conduct to be investigated by these?
18192How?
18192I am now sinking into the extremity of private want; do give me this-- what?
18192If it be asked, Where is the record of this?
18192If you look at Mr. Hastings''s merits, as he calls them, what are they?
18192If your Governor is discovered in taking a bribe, he will say,"What is that to you?
18192In such a manner as that he might be controlled by others?
18192In the first place, why did he take bonds at all from the Company for the money that was their own?
18192In what office is it entered?
18192In whose possession were the bonds?
18192Is he a man you can call to account for these particulars?
18192Is it in arrear?
18192Is it in the hands of Mr. Hastings''s wicked bribe- brokers, or in his own hands?
18192Is it that satisfaction and reparation may be awarded against the said Warren Hastings to the said Company for their own benefit?
18192Is it the Company''s?
18192Is it the man whose example they follow that is to bring them before a tribunal for their punishment?
18192Is it to be believed that men can long be ashamed of that which they see to be the road to honor?
18192Is not this tantamount to a denial?
18192Is there honor and justice in taking from a lady a gratuitous present made to her?
18192Is this language to be listened to?
18192Is this the way in which money is to be received and accounted for?
18192Is this true?
18192It might be expected that the Company would inquire of Mr. Hastings, and ask,"From whom did he get it?
18192It was his duty not merely[ not?]
18192Mr. Hastings knew this man to be bad; all the world knew him to be bad; and how did he employ him?
18192Mr. Hastings never trusted his colleagues in this proceeding; and what reason does he give?
18192Must not he recover of Mr. Hastings?
18192My Lords, is it a prosecutor you want?
18192My Lords, is it from a mistaken tenderness or a blind partiality to me, that, thus censured, they have sent me to this place?
18192My Lords, was that interest used properly and fairly?
18192My Lords, what evidence do we produce to your Lordships of the consequences of Mr. Hastings''s corrupt measures?
18192My Lords, what is it that we want here to a great act of national justice?
18192Need I say any more upon this subject?
18192Now did Mr. Hastings employ Gunga Govind Sing without a knowledge of his character?
18192Now do you want an instance of prevarication and trickery in an account?
18192Now in all that intermediate space where was it?
18192Now in what case was it that Mr. Hastings made this determination?
18192Now upon what pretence did he do all this?
18192Now was there ever an instance of a man so basely deserting a duty, and giving so base a reason for it?
18192Now was this the case with Mr. Hastings and Cantoo Baboo?
18192Now will your Lordships be so good as to let it rest in your memory what sort of an exchequer this is, even with regard to its receipts?
18192Now, if this money was not received for the Company, is it proper and right to take it from Mrs. Hastings?
18192Or by a wise and incorrupt administration of justice?
18192Shall I sit here to hear men collected from the dregs of the people give evidence, at his dictating, against my character and conduct?
18192The account he gives of the first is an anecdote; and what is his account of the second?
18192The few left on the pension- list, the poor remnants that had escaped, were they paid by his administratrix and deputy, Munny Begum?
18192The rent- free lands, the best and richest lands of the whole province, were sold,--sold for-- what do your Lordships think?
18192The second question is,--"In what manner was the application made to you, and by whom?"
18192Then what can withstand such hands?
18192Then, afterwards, why did he not enter it as the Company''s?
18192Then, if so, must not Mr. Hastings recover it again from the Company?
18192To meet his adversary and defy him?
18192Tools and instruments for what?
18192Was Mr. Hastings upon a visit?
18192Was he a person whose conduct was disapproved by their common superiors?
18192Was he a wretch, the basest of mankind, when opposed to Mr. Hastings?
18192Was he to be of use as a communication between Debi Sing and the Committee, and in no other way?
18192Was it in consequence of any requisition from him, or of any previous agreement, or of any established usage?"
18192Was it on his former conduct?
18192Was it only to receive such sums of money as Debi Sing might put into his hands, and which might have been easily sent to Calcutta?
18192Was it right to lay the whole weight of bribery, extortion, and oppression upon those three provinces, and neglect the rest?
18192Was it upon the confidence which he knew they had in him?
18192Was the accusation improbable, either on account of the subject- matter or the actor in it?
18192Was there ever, since the world began, any man who would dare to avow such sentiments, until driven to the wall?
18192Well, what is to be done in such circumstances?
18192Were the lower, the more industrious, spared?
18192Were they given up?
18192What are the date and circumstances of it?
18192What could they be?
18192What did he do?
18192What does he do?
18192What exhaustless fund of opulence could supply this destructive resource of wretchedness and misery?
18192What have they to fear?
18192What hinders him from renewing that visit?
18192What is he?
18192What is it that they will not pull down, when they are lifted to heaven against their oppressors?
18192What is that necessity?
18192What is the reason why Dinagepore, Patna, Nuddea, should have the post of honor assigned them?
18192What is the substance of Mr. Larkins''s explanation of it?
18192What is this man so eager about, what in such a rage about, that he can not endure the smallest delay of the post with common patience?
18192What led me into that error?
18192What must the thing to be moved be, when the machinery, when the necessary tools, for Gunga Govind Sing have cost 62,000_l._ a year to the Company?
18192What was the accusation?
18192What will you think of his being more than ordinarily cautious to avoid the suspicion of it?
18192What, my Lords, did he owe nothing to the Company that had appointed him?
18192What, no man at all?
18192What, then, could be his business there?
18192What, then, is become of it?
18192When I say to a servant,"Why have you not given me the account which I have so often asked for?"
18192When was there so much iniquity ever laid to the charge of any one?
18192Where are they to be met with, unless from him?
18192Where are we to look for accounts, but from an accountant- general?
18192Who has received it?
18192Who is to answer for it?"
18192Who is to give an account of it?
18192Who was he?
18192Who were the instruments of his concealment?
18192Who, under such discouragements, would give information or evidence against him?
18192Whom are you to apply to for information?
18192Why did he enter it at all?
18192Why did he not cancel these bonds?
18192Why did he, by an oath, bind his inferiors not to take these bribes?
18192Why did not Mr. Hastings order you to carry them to the public account?
18192Why did you not indorse them before?
18192Why does he consider it unlucky?
18192Why does not the running treasury account give an account of them?
18192Why is it a secret?
18192Why keep them at all?
18192Why make a false entry, to enter it as his own?
18192Why not enter truly the state of the account in the Company''s records?
18192Why not name October as well as November?
18192Why not, during the long period of so many years, cancel them?"
18192Why was this done?
18192Why was this done?
18192Why, then, did he take them himself?
18192Why?
18192Why?
18192Will flesh and blood refuse me?"
18192Will he stick to this?
18192You call upon me to lend you 34,000_l._, and propose bonds?
18192You see that from the 29th of December[ November?
18192You take it, then, for granted that he really concealed it from them?
18192a slight man, a man of mean situation, a man of mean talents, a man of mean character?
18192before what magistrate?
18192do you find any satisfactory answer to the Directors''letter?
18192does he once tell you from whom he received the money?
18192how can you think of the meanness of bonds?
18192is he to answer,"The reason I have not given it is because I thought you were railing at and abusing me"?
18192money of your own?
18192money?
18192no, this bribe; rob me the man who gave me this bribe; vote me-- what?
18192or did you deliver the account of your own free will, and unsolicited?"
18192that an Old Bailey acquittal is enough to establish a fitness for trust?
18192that there never was any custom of the East for it?
18192that they were the only provinces honored with his protection, so far as to take bribes from them?
18192that would be generous: money you owe me?
18192to avoid it?
18192to restore it to its owner?
18192to the country that bore him?
18192two hundred pounds to be given to a man for one day''s entertainment?
18192what account was there of it?
45010Admit he be,wrote Cromwell in reply,"shall that render him incapable to serve the public?...
45010For what,he added,"do the enemy say?
45010How long,jibed one of them,"halt ye between two opinions?
45010Is not this the likeliest way to bring them to their liberties?
45010My Lord,answered Cromwell,"if this be so why did we take up arms at first?
45010What,they asked,"were the Lords of England but William the Conqueror''s colonels, or the Barons but his majors, or the Knights but his captains?"
45010Who is it,asked Cromwell wrathfully in reply;"that created this common enemy?
45010Whoever yet,he wrote long afterwards to his daughter Bridget,"tasted that the Lord is gracious, without some sense of self, vanity and badness?"
45010You know, Mr. Story,he adds,"to withdraw the pay is to let fall the lecture, and who goeth to warfare at his own cost?"
45010Glancing at the mace he asked"What shall we do with this bauble?"
45010How was he to fight the enemy, unless he could choose his officers for their military efficiency, and not for their Presbyterian opinions?
45010How were they likely to recognise the deeply seated belief in the justice of his Church and cause which lay behind the slippery trickiness of Charles?
45010I asked him what that was?
45010Is God-- will God be with you?
45010Is not my assertion true?
45010Nay, what do many say that were friends at the beginning of the Parliament?
45010Or was it merely that they would not tolerate a Scottish conquest?
45010To Whitelocke''s constitutional objections he replied sharply:"What if a man should take upon him to be a King?"
45010To what other conclusion could these men possibly come?
45010Was it not better, they asked, to come to terms with Charles than to continue a struggle which promised to drag out for years?
45010Was it really in defence of''the change of government"that the people had sided with Cromwell?
45010Was this to be the result of all the blood and treasure that had been expended?
45010What could be the possible end of such demonstrations?
45010What then were Oliver''s Ambassadors doing when that treaty was negotiating?
45010What think you, by this time?
45010What was to be the assurance for the pay and maintenance of the troops going to Ireland?
45010What, then, was to be said of that ideal of elected Parliaments, which had sunk so deeply into the minds of that generation?
45010Where are your materials to preserve your shipping?
45010Where was it to end unless he sat in judgment to dispense equity to both?
45010Where will you be able to challenge any right by sea, or justify yourselves against a foreign invasion on your own soil?
45010Who could now doubt that-- under the thinnest of veils-- the army had taken the supreme control of the government into its hands?
45010Who ever tasted that graciousness of His, and could go less in desire-- less than pressing after full enjoyment?"
45010Who ever tasted that the Lord is gracious, without some sense of self, vanity, and badness?
45010Who is there that holdeth up his head to oppose this danger?
45010Who was to command in Ireland?
45010Why, he asked, had they not come to him to talk the matter over?
45010Would it be possible for Oliver to persist in this attitude to the end, in spite of the growing demands on the exchequer?
45010Would it be so easy to deal with Charles?
45010Would it not be confusion?...
45010Yet how was it possible to base authority on any new Parliament which should even approximate to such a representation?
45010and how, even if they had recognised it, could they have counted it to him for righteousness?
44143''Ah,''he said,''have you read all the others?''
44143''Do you hear anything of the sort?''
44143And how long will it be before it leads to something very like armed intervention of the French in support of him?
44143Are they directed against the new Administration?
44143But can we do so?
44143But has he?
44143But how will our relations be, if we previously break off with France?
44143Can you wonder that there is, to my eyes, a silver lining even to the great black cloud of a Franco- German War?
44143Could you give me some hints as to the particular points which should be decided before we begin?
44143Did the King of Greece understand Gambetta to say that France, with or without the co- operation of other Powers, would support Greece with troops?
44143Do you attach much importance to this?
44143Do you believe that the French have many tricks in hand for the Suez Canal Commission?
44143Do you gather any information about his objects?
44143Do you think that the House of Commons would allow us to take the whole debt upon ourselves, in order to save the bondholders?
44143Does he also act upon it as regards Russia?
44143Does it lie in their mouth, if we say that such encroachments, if persisted in, require special precautions?
44143Have you heard anything of the negotiations in question?
44143His Majesty might possibly acquiesce under strong pressure from all the Powers, but would all the Powers put such pressure on him?
44143I see little other prospect of averting mischief, and if it begins, where is it to end?
44143If therefore his policy or his passions incline him to do something striking to flatter the national vanity, how is he to find the means?
44143In the middle of April there appeared in the_ Berlin Post_ the celebrated article entitled:''Is War in Sight?''
44143Is he disposed to be an alarmist?
44143Is it helplessness, or bad faith?
44143Is it your impression-- as it is mine-- that the French are supremely anxious to push us into war?
44143Is there no hope of Russian interference to maintain peace?
44143It may be very easy to bully and to crush France, but will it be possible to do this without raising a storm in other quarters?
44143Of course the question is whether Boulanger is or is not to be in the new Cabinet?
44143Or has Bismarck established a personal hold over him?
44143So Germany keeps up an enormous army, and France strains every nerve to raise one; and what can diplomatists do?
44143The Reds having once tasted blood, may become ravenous for more, and who can say where they may look for the next victims?
44143The next question I want your advice upon is what, if anything, can other Powers, and particularly England, do to help to preserve peace?
44143Then, what will the Austrians want?
44143These things did not occur during the late Government?
44143Was there, perhaps, in this action some reminiscence of a possible past happiness lost by himself?
44143What does he think of Martino''s share in the recent Egyptian crisis?
44143What does it all mean?
44143What power did Wilson enjoy?
44143What then is our attitude to be?
44143What will be the best way of approaching the French Government when we have made up our own minds?
44143What would he think of it as applied to any other department of life-- Ambassadors, Bishops, or Ministers?
44143What, in your opinion, should they do?
44143Whereupon Mr. William Barrington( now Sir William Barrington) said drily:''Have you seen all the others?''
44143Who could imagine that pillow fight who only knew him as Ambassador in Paris?
44143Will he resist the temptation?
44143Would it be possible to fuse them into a board, giving them a native colleague to be chosen by themselves, and then decide by majority?
44143Would it, in either case, be safe to trust to the moral effect of its being sufficient, and to its not rendering further action imperative?
44143Would they acquiesce in the subsequent enforcement of the decision of the Commission?
44143You ask:_ Firstly_, What in my opinion should the French do to escape being attacked by Germany in their present defenceless state?
44143_ Secondly._ What can other Powers, and particularly England, do to help to preserve peace?
44143_ Thirdly._ Do I attach any importance to the Emperor of Russia''s pacific assurances?
44143and what can you suggest for the settlement of the financial difficulties of Egypt, if we obtain no sanction for a change of the Law of Liquidation?
52046Else, why should he, with wealth and honour blest, Refuse his age the needful hours of rest?
52046In the hall, one of his friends asked him how he came off?
52046Punish a body which he could not please, Bankrupt of life, yet prodigal of ease?
52046Sir Samuel Garrard, being a member of the House, was asked, whether the Sermon was printed at his desire or order?
52046Sir Samuel_ Astry_, Clerk of the Crown, being ask''d what was the Course of the Court?
52046To the King''s message he cried, like a fainting woman,"Lord, what can I do?
52046You may perhaps cry, how comes this sudden change?
3286All are agreed, that parliaments should not be perpetual; the only question is, what is the most convenient time for their duration?
3286Am I not to avail myself of whatever good is to be found in the world, because of the mixture of evil that will always be in it?
3286Am I to congratulate a highwayman and murderer, who has broken prison, upon the recovery of his natural rights?
3286And indeed how is it possible?
3286And shall we Englishmen revoke to such a suit?
3286Are all the taxes to be voted grievances, and the revenue reduced to a patriotic contribution, or patriotic presents?
3286Are silver shoe- buckles to be substituted in the place of the land- tax and the malt- tax, for the support of the naval strength of this kingdom?
3286Are the church lands to be sold to Jews and jobbers; or given to bribe new- invented municipal republics into a participation in sacrilege?
3286Are the citizens of London to be drawn from their allegiance by feeding them at the expense of their fellow- subjects?
3286Are the curates to be secluded from their bishops, by holding out to them the delusive hope of a dole out of the spoils of their own order?
3286Are the old assignats depreciated at market?
3286Are we to deny to a MAJORITY of the people the right of altering even the whole frame of their society, if such should be their pleasure?
3286But in what manner was this chaos brought into order?
3286But is it in destroying and pulling down that skill is displayed?
3286But is superstition the greatest of all possible vices?
3286But who are to judge what that profit and advantage ought to be?
3286But who gave Robespierre the power of being a tyrant?
3286But who will answer for the temper of a house of commons elected under these circumstances?
3286But why proscribe the other, and surely, in every point of view, the more laudable use of estates?
3286Can I now congratulate the same nation upon its freedom?
3286Do you imagine, then, that it is the land- tax which raises your revenue?
3286Does a design against the constitution of this country exist?
3286Does any one of you think that England, so wasted, would, under such a nursing attendance, so rapidly and cheaply recover?
3286Does evil so react upon good, as not only to retard its motion, but to change its nature?
3286Does he mean the Pay- office Act?
3286Does it not produce something ignoble and inglorious?
3286Does not something like this now appear in France?
3286For what have I entered into all this detail?
3286For which of her vices did they put to death the mildest of all human creatures, the duchess of Biron?
3286For which of his vices did that great magistrate, D''Espremenil, lose his fortune and his head?
3286For which of the vices of that pattern of benevolence, of piety, and of all the virtues, did they put her to death?
3286For, if you admit this interpretation, how does their idea of election differ from our idea of inheritance?
3286From passive submission was it to expect resolute defence?
3286Had you no way of turning the revenue to account but through the improvident resource of a spendthrift sale?
3286Had you no way of using the men but by converting monks into pensioners?
3286Has it not hitherto been true in the colonies?
3286Have we an example on record of a House of Commons punished for its servility?
3286I can not help asking, Why all this pains, to clear the British nation of ambition, perfidy, and the insatiate thirst of war?
3286If froward men should refuse this cure, can they vitiate anything but themselves?
3286If there be danger, must there be no precaution at all against it?
3286If these examples take root in the minds of men, what members hereafter will be bold enough not to be corrupt?
3286If we repent of our good actions, what, I pray you, is left for our faults and follies?
3286In the distractions which it produces, what room is there for the cultivation of letters, or the pursuits of any honourable art?
3286In what light is all this viewed in a great assembly?
3286Indeed, how should they?
3286Is a compulsory paper currency to be substituted in the place of the legal coin of this kingdom?
3286Is a politic act the worse for being a generous one?
3286Is episcopacy to be abolished?
3286Is every land- mark of the country to be done away in favour of a geometrical and arithmetical constitution?
3286Is his charge equal to the finding of the grand jury of Europe, and sufficient to put you upon your trial?
3286Is it him, who sees that chosen spot of plenty and delight converted into a Jacobin ferocious republic, dependent on the homicides of France?
3286Is it not the same virtue which does everything for us here in England?
3286Is it not true in Ireland?
3286Is it not true, that they were the first to declare war upon this kingdom?
3286Is it only an oppressive nightmare with which we have been loaded?
3286Is it only an unbookish jealousy, as Shakspeare calls it?
3286Is it that the people are changed, that the commonwealth can not be protected by its laws?
3286Is it then all a frightful dream, and are there no regicides in the world?
3286Is no concession proper, but that which is made from your want of right to keep what you grant?
3286Is our monarchy to be annihilated, with all the laws, all the tribunals, and all the ancient corporations of the kingdom?
3286Is the House of Lords to be voted useless?
3286Is the fate of the queen of France to produce this softening of character?
3286Is then fraud and falsehood become the distinctive character of Englishmen?
3286Is this a lesson of MODERATION to a descendant of Maria Theresa, drawn from the fate of the daughter of that incomparable woman and sovereign?
3286Is this a triumph to be consecrated at altars?
3286Is this principle to be true in England, and false everywhere else?

3286Quis inter haec, literis, aut ulli bonae arti, locus?
3286Rights which are absolutely repugnant to it?
3286Shall I not say to these men,"Arrangez- vous, canaille?"
3286Shall we be more tender of the tyrants of our own time, when we see them acting worse tragedies under our eyes?
3286Should we not obtest Heaven, and whatever justice there is yet on earth?
3286That the Convention should not contain one military man of name?
3286The only question is, what is it worth to the buyer?
3286They may, like him, begin by singing"Beatus ille"--but what will be the end?
3286To what purpose have I recalled your view to the end of the last century?
3286To whom then would I make the East- India Company accountable?
3286Was little done because a revolution was not made in the constitution?
3286Was she a person so very ferocious and cruel as, by the example of her death, to frighten us into common humanity?
3286What can be hoped for after this?
3286What ferocity of character drew on the fate of Elizabeth, the sister of King Louis the Sixteenth?
3286What have they thought of in France, under such a difficulty as almost puts the human faculties to a stand?
3286What hinders this monster from being sent as ambassador to convey to his majesty the first compliments of his brethren, the regicide Directory?
3286What is the remedy?
3286What is the use of discussing a man''s abstract right to food or medicine?
3286What is there to shock in this?
3286What lesson does the iniquity of prevalent factions read to us?
3286What must they think of that body of teachers, if they see it in no part above the establishment of their domestic servants?
3286What signify all those titles, and all those arms?
3286What then?
3286What was the event?
3286What would you call it?
3286What( says the financier) is peace to us without money?
3286When I say I have not received more than I deserve, is this the language I hold to majesty?
3286When a man can not live and maintain his family by the natural hire of his labour, ought it not to be raised by authority?
3286When was it that a king of England wanted wherewithal to make him respected, courted, or perhaps even feared, in every state of Europe?
3286Whence is their amendment?
3286Whence this alarming change?
3286Where shall we find recorded exertions of active benevolence at once so numerous, so varied, and so important, made by one man?
3286Who could have imagined that atheism could produce one of the most violently operative principles of fanaticism?
3286Who will accumulate, when he does not know the value of what he saves?
3286Who will answer for the courage of a house of commons to arm the crown with the extraordinary powers that it may demand?
3286Who will labour without knowing the amount of his pay?
3286Who will study to increase what none can estimate?
3286Why do I feel so differently from the Reverend Dr. Price, and those of his lay flock, who will choose to adopt the sentiments of his discourse?
3286Why should you presume, that, in any country, a body duly constituted for any function, will neglect to perform its duty, and abdicate its trust?
3286Why, through the violation of all property, through an outrage upon every principle of liberty, forcibly carry them from the better to the worse?
3286Why?
3286Why?
3286Will any one presume, against both authority and opinion, to hold up this unfashionable, antiquated, exploded constitution?
3286Will these gentlemen of the direction animadvert on the partners of their own guilt?
3286With you, in your purifying revolution, whom have you chosen to regulate the church?
3286Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate?
3286Would twenty shillings have ruined Mr. Hampden''s fortune?
3286You would not secure men from tyranny and sedition, by rooting out of the mind the principles to which these fraudulent pretexts apply?
3286a kind of meanness in all the prevalent policy?
3286a tendency in all that is done to lower along with individuals all the dignity and importance of the state?
3286and the slough of slavery, which we are not able to work off, to serve them for their freedom?
3286and who were the instruments of his tyranny?
3286are we to give them our weakness for their strength?
3286or that it is the Mutiny Bill, which inspires it with bravery and discipline?
3286our opprobrium for their glory?
3286shall we not use the same liberty that they do, when we can use it with the same safety?
3286that it is the annual vote in the committee of supply, which gives you your army?
3286to be commemorated with grateful thanksgiving?
3286when to speak honest truth only requires a contempt of the opinion of those whose actions we abhor?
50662Wessex?
50662What county is that? 50662 But how to get them? 50662 But when a big ship comes and wants to get up the river under the bridge, what is to be done? 50662 For whom? 50662 Has she gone down, carrying to the bottom the poor fellows who had raised the flare a short time back? 50662 Now how to get away? 50662 Soon the lifeboat is sweeping past the anchored lightship, and her men hail the lightship with a tremendous shout ofWhere away?"
50662The only question is, before which barge will it happen?
50662The question at once springs to our lips, Who raised these enormous blocks of stone, and set them up in so exact a fashion?
50662We know Essex and Sussex, but where is Wessex?"
50662Well, now, from the City which way shall we strike, east or west?
50662West and East of what?
50662What is it?
50662What prize do those stalwart fellows race to gain?
50662Where is the dividing- line?
50662Why did Shakespeare write these lines?
50662Why is this?
50662Why so lonely?
46309''Lead the House of Commons?''
46309''To whom would you have given it?''
46309''What more could they say or do than they had done?''
46309''What''s the matter?''
46309''Why did you?''
46309''Why?''
46309After dinner he took me aside and said,''Have you any means of speaking to_ these chaps_?''
46309And what has been his career before the world?
46309And what is the cause of this mighty change?
46309At last her natural impetuosity broke out, and she said to him,''Do you mean to marry Miss Berry or do you not?''
46309But then what is to come next?
46309But where are we to look for great men?
46309Do you think it is prudent in you to publish such a book?''
46309He asked her why Peel had resigned?
46309He may go great lengths, and at some of these meetings may expose himself to a prosecution, but when would you find an Irish jury to convict him?''
46309He read it, and then said,''What do you say to that?''
46309He said it was the particular_ time_ which made the great objection; would I delay it?
46309He said that Lord John was not tempted by this bait, and very properly said,''The question is, Do we agree with the Protectionists?''
46309He said,''It was very kind of Lord Melbourne, and I am much obliged to him; but do you mean that this refers to anything that has already occurred?''
46309I asked,''what have they done?''
46309I did not think it worth while to dispute with him; but just asked him what it was they had done or left undone?
46309I said if he felt that, with his superhuman memory and wonderful scope of knowledge, what must ordinary men feel?
46309I spoke to him about it and so did the others--''But what are we to do with Brougham?''
46309I suggested the possible case of this alteration accepted as a compromise by all the Protectionists in the House of Commons, and what then?
46309If Lord John came in, how was he to stay in?
46309If Peel resigns, everybody asks who is to come in, and how is the government to be carried on by the Whigs, if they return to power?
46309Jarnac said, with an affected_ naïveté_,''You mean if the Queen had been married to Prince Leopold?''
46309May I then contradict it on your authority?''
46309Of this I have no doubt, for who else can care for his_ past_ conduct being canvassed?
46309On est venu vers moi me prendre la main en me disant:"Mais, Monsieur le Ministre, que ferez- vous de cet homme- là?
46309Palmerston therefore said to Jarnac,''Why do n''t you at once take one of the Spanish princes, Don Francisco''s sons?
46309She said,''Oh no, why should you?''
46309The other day the Queen said to the Chancellor,''Why does Lord Brougham never come to Court?''
46309Thiers asked Guizot,''Are you determined to remain Minister?''
46309What can we do about O''Connell?
46309said Clarendon to him, when he told him,''how on earth did you contrive to get the Bishop of London to come to your house?''
42270Did n''t she take any notice at all?
42270Did she read it?
42270Did she say anything?
42270Do you see that lady in the white dress?
42270Oh, what did people do before there were tennis and croquet and golf?
42270Shall I ever see it again?
42270What''s the matter?
42270Why could n''t she have settled in some decent place?
42270You do n''t know me, ma''am?
42270You do n''t remember me? 42270 You do n''t say so?"
42270You remember me?
42270You wo n''t go into the Chamber of Horrors, I suppose?
42270_ Now,_said he intensely,"do you wonder at my wanting to come back to my old school?"
42270''What''s this on the ground?''
42270And did he ever?
42270And was it too late?
42270And why do n''t you write what you understand?"
42270And why have I never seen such cows as those splendid, big, red Devon cows elsewhere?
42270Are they the real Queen Anne?
42270As for the delicious lurid function, snapdragon, is it obsolete in England yet?
42270But again-- what is there to marvel at?
42270But apart altogether from consideration of such conditions as were of the times and not of her individual choice, did she not know her business well?
42270But suppose the rector of Malling( I know nothing of him) should be an Evangelical?
42270But what could evade the lynx- eyed vigilance of the duenna of old?
42270But why should I say alas?
42270Could anything be more appropriate to the character of the town?
42270Could anything in city planning be happier in effect than the position of the cathedral in its quiet oasis amid the streets?
42270Could even Devonshire have composed a lovelier picture to live with?
42270Dare I hope that I am loved in return?"
42270Did I know this and that and the other about the family?
42270Did I know where the portrait was?
42270Did he say?
42270Do n''t you remember?"
42270Do you mean to say those we had at lunch yesterday were that price?"
42270Does that seem an incongruous association of ideas?
42270For little girls do cotton to little boys, and vice versa, and why not?
42270For where would be the interest and inspiration of life without something to want that you can not get, but that it is open to you to try for?
42270From the old garden, out of the stupendous trees( are there trees in England to rival Norfolk trees?
42270Had I outlived my long, long hope?
42270How was that?"
42270How_ could_ she?
42270In the priest''s chapel, then?
42270Is it not possible that the despisers would give almost anything to be able to say the same?
42270It was too late now, I concluded, and so what was the use of fussing any more?
42270Might it possibly have been the same"something"that he divined?
42270No sooner were we disentangled than my aunt, almost as flustered as I was, sternly demanded of me:"Did you see that?"
42270Now, was not that a sensible idea?
42270One thing I wish I had asked the sweet- maker: Are they allowed to worship in the nuns''chapel?
42270Or the boy I ca n''t bear?
42270Or:"Oh, why did she flatter my boyish pride?
42270Sinking upon a bench in the grateful air I said to my niece:"My dear, do you happen to see amongst all these people anyone you know?"
42270The boy I like( though I may never have exchanged a word with him)?
42270The question:"Was I fit to be left?"
42270Then would we all come back and dine with him to- morrow?
42270Things that have been improved upon ought to go, but why abandon those that still remain desirable?
42270To their excited"Where?
42270Was it, reader?
42270What girl- child makes dolls''clothes-- proper dolls''clothes-- now?
42270What is there to take the place of clogs and pattens in usefulness to the class which once wore them?
42270What must Cockington be in spring?
42270What old man looks back on this experience otherwise than with the feeling that he has seen the Golden Age?
42270What shall I leave my godson?"
42270What, I wondered, did my schoolgirl idol and apostle of beauty, Ruskin, think of this ditch when it was a- making?
42270When I think again, I have to ask myself,"Why should I?"
42270Where is that pleasant- voiced, happy- faced daughter of the old inn now?
42270Where, I wondered, as I looked at the blank windows, where were they now?
42270Where, then, was the harm?
42270Where?"
42270Who asks me to be his?
42270Who can wonder?
42270Who lauds my beauty in such ardent verse?
42270Who sent that?
42270Who sent this?
42270Why was that?
42270You are Mrs C., are you not?"
42270You remember those dances of the fifties, dear reader who went to them?
42270he asked me before us both, and what could I say?"
42270obtruded itself into the settled policy: it logically resolved itself into the further question:"Was I fit to go?"
42270when will parsons learn common- sense?
45025''BUT above all, what is to be done with India''?
45025''Could Great Britain, with any regard to the safety of her national position, afford to give up South Africa''?
45025''What does it[ British Federation] offer us in exchange for our ideals and our aspirations, and our sympathies and our interests?
45025And looking at the facts of the situation, from a South African point of view, who can doubt that they are justified?
45025Are not these the questions which really dominate British national development?
45025Are there grounds to justify this opinion?
45025Are they expedients to accomplish a temporary purpose, or are they permanent policies?
45025Can community of interest and mutual dependence be more complete than this?
45025Can it be true that we have not the strength of brain or hand to wrest from nature the{ 141} success and prosperity which others have won?
45025Can the colonies be brought, and ought they to be brought, not merely into friendly relations, but into organic harmony with the national system?
45025Does this conflict of thought upon trade policy present an insuperable obstacle to national unity?
45025Has our capacity for political organization reached its utmost limit?
45025How is the big remainder, almost the whole, to be disposed of?
45025If a day should ever come when a bare majority of Canadians voted for annexation, would such a decision be accepted by the minority?
45025In a debate which followed one of the students asked:''What single thing have people in England better than we Australians have here?''
45025Is it desirable?
45025Is it for the advantage of the different communities that they should remain together?
45025Is it right or politic, he asks, that an important part of the Empire should be left to such a choice?
45025Is that retention to be permanent?
45025May it not rightly be the thought and prayer of every British citizen?
45025Shall it, then, be separation or closer union?
45025Shall we{ 175} then give up all large statesmanship, and adopt the parish steeple as the measure of our political ideas?
45025Spain had great colonies upon the American continent: where are these now?
45025To any combination thus planned to guard the very life of the nation, what just or reasonable objection can be made?
45025To any objection not just or reasonable{ 174} what answer must English people make?
45025We look for the grounds of this superior wisdom and we read as follows:''What lesson has the past to teach us upon this point?
45025What are the facts?
45025What shock has fooled her since that she should speak So feebly?''
45025Whence can these be obtained except from the portion of the continent outside of the United States?
45025Who shall question our right and duty to organize it for the great ends manifestly within our reach?
45025Why does the public attention require to be directed to facts so manifest?
45025Why not, one asks, for the British people as well as for those of the United States?
45025Why should it not be admitted among the ordinary considerations of political life as well?
45025Why, it may be asked, have not the inconsistency and the temporary character of the existing national system been all along obvious to every one?
45025Will they secure the most effective defence, the best return for the money they spend, within the{ 85} Empire or without?

12483A stranger is fishing by a burn- side one Monday morning, when the parish minister accosts him from the other side of the stream thus:--"Good sport?"
12483A young officer with much politeness came forward and picked her up, earnestly asking her at the same time,"I hope ma''am, you are no worse?"
12483A young wit, by way of playing him off on the race- course, asked him, in a contemptuous tone,"Is that the same horse you had last year, laird?"
12483A''ae oo?
12483A''oo?
12483After a pause, but still in the most courteous accents,"Madam, have I your ladyship''s permission to send you some fish?"
12483After a pause, he repeated with great emphasis,"Do ye venture?"
12483After all were seated, the Marquis addressed the lady,"Madam, may I have the honour and happiness of helping your ladyship to some fish?"
12483After looking about him he put the anxious question,"But, Captain, whaur''s Miss Ketty?"
12483An Englishman, offended at such assumption of national pre- eminence, asked indignantly,"What do you say to Shakspeare?"
12483And what if this failed?
12483And what is the difference?
12483Another lady was equally discomposed by the introduction of gas, asking, with much earnestness,"What''s to become o''the puir whales''?"
12483Are n''t you one of the''Scots wha hae?''
12483Are you aware that there is a modern church at Oxford in the pure Norman style?
12483Are you sure they said nothing?"
12483Being of a crusty temper, he rang the bell in fury, and summoned John, when the following colloquy took place:--"John, how is this?
12483Boy--"Do you ken gin ae Mr.----( giving the gentleman''s name) lives hereabout?"
12483But my doubt is here:--How am I to discover what are the_ essentia_ of any Louse, whether Egyptian or not?
12483But the tried servant of forty years, not dreaming of the possibility of_ his_ dismissal, innocently asked,"Ay, sir; whare ye gaun?
12483But then the painful questions arise, Are such beneficial changes_ general_ through the whole body of our countrymen?
12483But why Cupar?
12483Can hatred to meeting on earth be in any sense a right preliminary or preparation for desire to meet in Heaven?
12483Can it be that the finding a new plant put us in a state of ecstasy?
12483Changes, are they for the good of the whole community?
12483Clerk, do you spell water in Scotland with two t''s?"
12483Coming up to him in the High Street of Dumfries, they accosted him with much solemnity--"Maister Dunlop, dae ye hear the news?"
12483Could ye no step in by?"
12483Darkness, what is it?
12483Did ye think it wasna a guid road we was gaun?"
12483Do they still hold their place by the cottar''s fireside, or are they becoming only a reminiscence of what was_ once_ a national distinction?
12483Do ye venture?"
12483Do you know Mrs. Watkins is alive and clever, and that I constantly correspond with her?

12483Dr. Barber ingeniously remarks--"Is it possible the little boy''s mother had one of these old Bibles, or is it merely a coincidence?"
12483Fergusson?"
12483Finding that she did not yet comprehend him, he exclaimed,"Why, girl, did you never see a horse- fly?"
12483For example--"I see, James, that you tak a bit nap in the kirk,"said a minister to one of his people;"can ye no tak a mull with you?
12483Forbes?"
12483Hae ye ears, and hear not?
12483Hae ye eyes, and see not?
12483Have they ceased to exist, or are they removed from our sight to different scenes?
12483He asked him,"And wha are ye, mi''man, that tak sae muckle on ye?"
12483He led her to the churchyard, and pointing with his finger, got out,"My fowk lie there, Mary; wad ye like to lie there?"
12483He was asked,"Did you ever see the minister the worse of drink?"
12483He was informed that it was a fat Thamas Thamson, upon which the Aberdeen query naturally arose,"Ay, but fatten fat Thamas Thamson?"
12483He was preaching on these words--"Is Ephraim my dear son?
12483His Southron guest thought it incumbent to say,"Ah, minister, that''s wrong, is it not?
12483Honesty declared the best policy, why?
12483How was the intermediate period to be spent?"
12483How would this be as tersely translated into English?
12483If he was asked"How is Mrs. Balne to- day?"
12483If the spirit of God is in good men, as He certainly is, then who can doubt the value and the efficacy of the blessing which they bestow?
12483In English what is it?
12483In case I am able to come over this week to Edinburgh, should I find you at home, and at what hour?
12483Indeed naebody kenn''d how long, and why should his client now be deprived of the watter?"
12483Indeed, we may fairly ask, have they equals in this respect amongst English writers?
12483Irving?"
12483Is cathedral service more than a solemn concert?"
12483Is he a pleasant child?"
12483Is it not extraordinary to see this rain of Bishoprics upon_ my_ head?
12483Is it not plain that the temperance and moderation descended in the blood of the Burnetts?
12483Is it possible that this could ever have been contemplated by the canon?
12483Is the world a better world than that which we can remember?
12483It is a kindly mode of referring to an individual, as we would say to a stranger,"Honest man, would you tell me the way to----?"
12483It seems as if the wilful excluding of point was acceptable, otherwise how to explain the popularity of that book?
12483It was a vara imperfect discourse in ma opinion; ye did weel eneuch till ye took them through, but where did ye leave them?
12483It was as if"_ echo_ answered whaur?"
12483Laird says,''I am going to send the young laird abroad,''''What for?''
12483Many living persons can remember Angus old ladies who would say to their nieces and daughters,"Whatna hummeldoddie o''a mutch hae ye gotten?"
12483Might they not communicate personally what they communicate through the press?
12483Mr. M---- of Bathgate came up to a street- paviour one day, and addressed him,"Eh, John, what''s this you''re at?"
12483Mr. Macnee begins,"Donald, what brought you here?"
12483My correspondent very justly adds the remark,"What would be thought of indulgence in drinking habits now that could lead to such a result?"
12483On approaching him, one of them saluted him,"Well, Father Abraham, how are you to- day?"
12483On her marriage- day, the youth to whom she was about to be united said to her in a triumphant tone,"Weel, Jenny, have n''t I been unco ceevil?"
12483On the question, What was the"pestilence that walketh in darkness"?
12483One came in rather late, and seeing he had scarcely room at the end of the seat, addressed his countryman,"Neebour, wad ye sit a bit_ wast_?"
12483One of the sisters, in consternation, whispered to the other,"Esther, ye hae nae gotten the spune?"
12483Our traveller, at last coming up to an old man breaking stones, asked him if there was_ any_ traffic on this road-- was it at_ all_ frequented?
12483So David opened his criticism--"Thocht o''t, sir?
12483So and So?"
12483So as a test the preacher asked him,"What I had been saying last then?"
12483So he shouted out,"Minister, may a puir body like me noo gie a hoast[174]?"
12483So- and- so?"
12483Some time afterwards, when Mr. Shireff met John on the road, he said,"And so, John, I understand you have become an Independent?"
12483Thae''s fine claes ye hae gotten; whaur did ye get that coat?"
12483The answer of an old woman under examination by the minister to the question from the Shorter Catechism--"What are the_ decrees_ of God?"
12483The gentleman looked at it with longing eyes, and addressed the boy--"Where are you taking that salmon, my boy?"
12483The laird came riding past, and seeing Jamie sitting on the bridge, accosted him:--"Ay, Fleeman, are ye here already?"
12483The minister bluntly accosted him--"Ay, man, John, an''ye''ve left us; what micht be your reason for that?
12483The minister, too eager to be scrutinising, took a long, deep pinch, and then said,"Whaur did you get it?"
12483The other replied,"But canna the French say their prayers as weel?"
12483The question occurs, Is not this a necessary, or at least a natural tendency of High Churchism?"
12483The question was,"Why did the Israelites make a golden calf?"
12483The story is this:--At a prolonged drinking bout, one of the party remarked,"What gars the laird of Garskadden look sae gash[39]?"
12483The young minister demurred at this, and asked if he"might not introduce any other short prayer?"
12483Then a little quicker,"Is your Ladyship inclined to take fish?"
12483There is a delicious servantgirlism, often expressed in an answer given at the door to an inquirer:"Is your master at home, or mistress?"
12483There is no male society and no concerts, and what do I care for dinners?
12483There is this difference, however, in the local usage, that to say in Aberdeen, Will you take your haddock?
12483They urged,"What gars ye tak up your bit papers to the pu''pit?"
12483They were passing St. John''s, which had just been finished, and the countryman asked,"Whatna kirk was that?"
12483This the boy not understanding, the master put the same question Aberdonicà ©,"Jemmy, fat was the hinner end o''Pharaoh?"
12483Thus, with reference to human nature before the fall, a man was asked,"What kind of man was Adam?"
12483To the question,"Is the bride rich?"
12483To which he replied,"Sir, is it lawful at ony time to tell a lee?"
12483To which, as if merely coming over the complainant''s language again, the answer was a grave"Whaur[55]?"
12483Very quick, and rather peremptory,"Madam, do ye choice fish?"
12483W. of Kinneff''Mem, winna ye tak the clock wi''ye?''
12483Whae''ll buy neeps?"
12483What did he dee o''?
12483What mere_ English_ word could have expressed a distinction so well in such a case as the following?
12483What will be the spontaneous impression produced by looking back on bygone intercourses in life?

12483When do your boys come?
12483When he found the proposal was to build upon the tenure of 999 years, he quietly suggested,"Culd ye no mak it a_ thousand_?
12483When it was announced that Mr. Thomas Thomson was dead, an Aberdeen friend of the family asked,"Fatten Thamas Thamson?"
12483Where, O ye years that are past, have you gone?
12483Who can resist, for example, the epithet applied by Meg Merrilies to an unsuccessful probationer for admission to the ministry:--"a sticket stibbler"?
12483Who that has heard the Countess of Essex, when Miss Stephens, sing"Auld Robin Gray,"can ever lose the impression of her heart- touching notes?
12483Who would have thought it?
12483Why else did the blessed Jesus tabernacle here below-- a man of sorrows?
12483Why should not the beautiful astronomical discourses of Thomas Chalmers have been delivered in St. Paul''s or in St. John''s, Edinburgh?
12483Why should not the same rule be adopted towards brethren who differ from ourselves so little on points that are vital and eternal?
12483Why should we lose the many benefits favourable to the advancement of Christian unity amongst us?
12483Why should we, under proper arrangements, fail to realise so graceful an exercise of Christian charity?
12483Will any man presume to tell me that a Beetle is not a Beetle, and that a Louse is not a Louse?
12483Will past thought of me furnish the memory of those who survive me with recollections that will be fond and pleasing?"
12483With the Aberdonian"what"is always"fat"or"fatten;""music"is"meesic;""brutes"are"breets;""What are ye duin''?"
12483Writing in his journal some time afterwards, he says,"What was I to do?
12483Ye wadna come to the parish kirk, though it were to save your life, wad ye?

12483may not new faults have taken their place where older faults have been abandoned?
12483may not the vices and follies of one grade of society have found a refuge in those that are of a lower class?
12483of southern Scotch, in Aberdeen would be"Fat are ye deein''?"
12483rejoins the laird,"the upper or the lower?"
12483said Hairy;"wull ye hand my horse, sir?"
12483said his friend;"that was bold language; and what did they say to that?"
12483said the man, under a strong sense of his own importance,"I''m the corp''s brither[168]?"
12483she answered;"it was_ very wrong_; how can you expect to get better if you do not help yourself with the remedies which heaven provides for you?"

38822''Sdeath, my lord, can you not imagine that I speak of the wings of love? 38822 And is this Yarrow?
38822And why,said he,"should not a man be cheerful on the verge of heaven?"
38822And would you undertake to do this, my good friend?
38822And your wife, is she well?
38822Are you too a Cameronian?
38822But do n''t you think that it was rather cruel sport?
38822But you have a little pinch occasionally-- in the cold and stormy winter weather?
38822Can you make''the twa ends meet''at the close of the year?
38822Come ye here to hawk or hound, Or drink the wine that''s sae clear, O; Or come ye here to eat in your words, That you''re not the Rose o''Yarrow?
38822Did he belong to the established kirk?
38822Did you know any thing of Sir Walter Scott? 38822 Do you mean the rock, Francis?"
38822Even so,was the reply,"seven pounds; but how much then do they get with you?"
38822Have you a cow?
38822Have you any family, my friend?
38822Hold your tongue, my lady fair; For what needs a''this sorrow? 38822 How many pounds go to a dollar?"
38822I was then young, reckless, high- hearted: I was screwed up in that convent- like castle; my sweetheart was in the plain below--"Well, what then?"
38822Lang Syne!--ah, where are they who shared With us its pleasures bright and blithe? 38822 Mine is the religion of the breast;"and if it be not, what is it worth?
38822Sandy then got over his troubles, did he?
38822The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God--was Burns an atheist?
38822Weel, my lad,he would say, patting my head,"how d''ye do-- and how''s your faither, and how''s your mither?
38822Well, what have you for victuals?
38822What are you going to do with a Greek Testament?
38822What of that? 38822 What''s Yarrow but a river bare, That glides the dark hills under?
38822What''s the matter?
38822Why, grandfaither,says one of the younger lads,"do n''t you think the auld Covenanters were rather sour kind o''bodies?"
38822''Have you hope?''
38822( glad?)
38822--Whose daughter''s she that wears the aurora gown, With face so fair, and locks o''lovely brown?
38822A_ baron_ would be satisfied in Germany with such a revenue as that; and do you mean to say that there are schoolmasters who grumble at it?"
38822After standing a few moments, the one said to the other,"Did you ever hear such preaching as that?"
38822And a''the family, are they weel?
38822And is this-- Yarrow?--This the stream Of which my fancy cherished So faithfully a waking dream?
38822And mind ye o''the Saturdays,( The schule then skail''t[139] at noon,) When we ran aff to speel[140] the braes, The broomy braes o''June?
38822And shall we tread that holy ground, And breathe that fragrant air; And view the fields with glory crowned In cloudless beauty fair?
38822And these roses, the fairest that ever were seen?
38822And when the Lord of the Universe hath shown us the amazing wonders of his various frame, should we think it hard, when he thinketh time, to dislodge?
38822And whence this falling tear In sad remembrance of his merit just?
38822And why yon melancholious weeds, Hung on the bonny birks o''Yarrow?
38822Are we a piece of machinery, which like the à � olian harp, passive, takes the impression of the passing accident?
38822Come, who is your mistress now?"
38822Did he not accomplish a great and beneficial work of Reform; and, having done this, did he not die a sweet and triumphant death?
38822Does not Holy Writ declare,"_ Blessed_ are the dead that die in the Lord?"
38822Does not Scotland, however inferior, in some respects it may be deemed to other lands, possess a peculiar charm to all cultivated minds?
38822From vales that knew our lives devoid of stain?
38822Hae ye mark''d the dews o''morning, Glittering in the sunny ray, Quickly fa''when, without warning, Rough blasts came and shook the spray?
38822Hae ye seen the bird fast fleeing, Drap when pierced by death mair fleet?
38822Have I so found it full of pleasing charms?
38822Have you any land to cultivate?"
38822Have you thought of that?"
38822How can I busk a bonny, bonny bride, How can I busk a winsome marrow, How lue him on the banks o''Tweed That slew my love on the braes o''Yarrow?
38822How can I love to see thee shine So bright, whom I have bought so dear?
38822How far came ye the day?
38822How sparkling are her eyes?
38822How, then, could honored Thomas Carlyle bring himself to affirm,"that Burns had no religion?"
38822I know thy faithfulness, and need no more; Yet from the lab''rinth to lead out my mind, Say, to expose her, who was so unkind?
38822I marvel, Jeanie Morrison, Gin[148] I hae been to thee, As closely twined wi''earliest thochts, As ye hae been to me?
38822In them there is frequent, habitual recognition of the Creator; and who that finds joy and beauty in nature has not the same?
38822Is that blue light the moon''s or tomb- fire''s gleam?
38822Is that dull sound the hum of Teviot''s stream?
38822Is this your daughter Glaud?
38822It seems to us to utter the deep throbbings of the poet''s spirit:"Why am I loth to leave this earthly scene?
38822Just when her notes began with skill To sound beneath the southern hill, And twine around my bosom''s core, How could we part forevermore?
38822Kilmeny, Kilmeny, where have you been?
38822Kilmeny, Kilmeny, where have you been?
38822Knox, doubtless, had his faults; and what of that?
38822O mind ye, luve, how aft we left The deavin''[142] dinsome[143] toun, To wander by the green burnside, And hear its waters croon?
38822O mind[136] ye how we hung our heads, How cheeks brent red wi''shame, Whene''er the schule[137] weans laughin''said, We cleeked[138] thegither hame?
38822Or death''s unlovely, dreary, dark abode?
38822Or do these workings argue something within us above the trodden clod?
38822Or have a thought that ought intrude Save birds and humming bees?"
38822Or what of Scotland?
38822Out and spak her father dear, Says,"What needs a''this sorrow?
38822Pray, my good fellow, how would you propose to do that?"
38822Some drops of joy, with draughts of ill between; Some gleams of sunshine''mid renewing storms; Is it departing pangs my soul alarms?
38822Strange auld man, what art thou?
38822Tell me, my dear friend, to what can this be owing?
38822That bonny snook[173] o''the birk sae green?
38822The young men were awed, and listened with reverent attention to the close, when the one, turning to the other, said,"And what d''ye think of that?"
38822Then how should I for heavenly mercy pray; Who act so counter heavenly mercy''s plan, Who sin so oft have mourn''d, yet to temptation ran?
38822Then stay thee, fair, in Ravensheuch; Why cross the gloomy Firth to- day?"
38822They who forewent us did leave room for us; and should we grieve to do the same to those who should come after us?
38822This the stream, Of which my fancy cherished So faithfully a waking dream, An image that hath perished?"
38822Waking or asleep Thou of death must deem, Things more true and deep Than we mortals dream, Or how could thy note flow in such a crystal stream?
38822Was St. Kessog a true martyr?
38822Was he not a true man, and a true minister of God''s Word?
38822Wha can this new- comer be?''
38822Wha in neeboring town or farm?
38822Wha nursed her mother that now hauds my hand?
38822Wha was ance like Willie Gairlace?
38822Wha, worse than brutes, cou''d leave exposed to air Sae much o''innocence sae sweetly fair, Sae helpless young?
38822Whare gat ye that bonny, bonny bride?
38822Whare gat ye that winsome marrow?
38822What could they be, thought I, did thee forsake?
38822What d''ye mean?
38822What fields or waves or mountains?
38822What grand agency has accomplished all this?
38822What ignorance of pain?
38822What is most like thee?
38822What love of thine own kind?
38822What man in his senses ever lived without religion?
38822What objects are the fountains Of thy happy strain?
38822What shapes of sky or plain?
38822What think you of this world?
38822What time the daisy decks the green, Thy certain voice we hear; Hast thou a star to guide thy path, Or mark the rolling year?
38822What vanity has brought thee here?
38822What''s yonder floats on the rueful flude?
38822When he first saw Jeanie Miller, Wha wi''Jeanie could compare?
38822When the great winds through leafless forests rushing, Sad music make?
38822Whence then these sighs?
38822Where gat you that joup[172] o''the lily scheen?
38822Where in Italy or in Austria will you meet aught so beautiful or thrilling as the following?
38822Where now the triumph of his lofty powers of knowledge?

50791Now cheer up, sir Abbot, did you never hear yet, That a fool he may learn a wise man to wit? 50791 When,"exclaimed they,"will the first attack take place, by a man whom we have expected so long and anxiously?
50791A man, by far the first of kings, and the most skilled in war throughout Christendom?
50791After which, no one making answer, they repeated,"Where is the archbishop?"
50791But what did the rashness and timidity of the devoted profit them?
50791But what glory is there in fighting with a sick man?
50791But who could reckon the sum of money which the citizens lost?
50791But why need we say more?
50791How hast thou lost thy defender?
50791O why did he come so long a way and with so much toil, if he intended to return almost immediately?
50791Speak out at once; is it your wish to have Samson?"

50791_ Liveries.__ D._ What is that thou didst speak of as liveries of both kinds?
50791_ What the Exchequer is, and what is the reason of this name.__ Disciple._ What is the exchequer?
42359And did that vex thee?
42359And have they taken him, Kinmont Willie, Against the truce of Border tide? 42359 And have they taken him, Kinmont Willie, Withouten either dread or fear, And forgotten that the bold Buccleugh, Can back a steed and shake a spear?
42359And is there not,said he--"is there not some being like that for me; is there none on earth to whom I may speak of love?
42359And what,asked Charles,"are the requisite qualities of such a wife?"
42359But who is it, pray?
42359But will ye stay till the day gae down, Until the night come o''er the grund, And I''ll be a guide worth ony twa That may in Liddesdale be found? 42359 Does a livelier hue delight?
42359Fy on ye, woman, why ca''ye me man? 42359 Good morning, Tom,"said Sir Ferdinand,"what makes you laugh so this morning, Tom?"
42359How can I confess them,Hobbie says,"When I never saw them with my e''e?"
42359How hast thou managed thy revenge?
42359In love,he replied, with a feeble laugh,"not I indeed, what can have given thee such an idea?"
42359Now sound our trumpet,quoth Buccleugh, Let''s waken Lord Scrope, right merrilie; Then loud the Warder''s trumpet blew,"Wha daur meddle wi''me?"
42359O is my helmet a widow''s cap, Or my lance a wand of the willow tree? 42359 O sleep ye, wake ye, Kinmont Willie, Upon the morn that thou''s to die?"
42359Restored now, she op''d her radiant eyes, And looking gratitude ineffable,''Is it then you, Damoetas? 42359 Still is he my devoted knight?"
42359What happened to vex thee?
42359What is it,replied the undaunted Scot,"that a man dare not do?"
42359What''s getten them?
42359Wilt thou with us into England ride, And thy safe warrand we will be? 42359 All this was horror, but how faint the view To what too soon all real must ensue, Shall I relate how sunk each noble name? 42359 Am I, alone, of all my race doomed to drag on a long and weary life, a solitary, friendless creature? 42359 And forgotten that the bold Buccleugh Is keeper here on the Scottish side? 42359 And now, what is your will wi''me?
42359And that then is his grave!--Before his death You say that he saw many happy years?
42359And what is the simple maid to blame To be made of lust the prey?
42359And what the lowly village priest That they so oft do slay?
42359And when the doleful day of doom Shall call ye from the grave, From the crying blood of these innocents What tyrants shall ye save?
42359And you believe, then, that his mind was easy?
42359But this youth How did he die at last?
42359But what became of the betrothed lovers?
42359But what were his feelings as he approached the place of his nativity?
42359But where''s the knight in all the north, That dare the adventure follow forth, So perilous to knightly worth, In the valley of St. John?
42359By whom in that lone place espied?
42359Can the thrones and crowns of kings Yield a joy as sweet as this?
42359Can their splendour yield them bliss?
42359Every tongue was inquiring,"Wha is she?"
42359Full fain would I this hour delay, Thought weak the wish-- yet wilt thou stay?
42359He immediately said,"Pray, where is the executioner?
42359He touched; what followed who shall tell?
42359If here he stay, What can be done?
42359Is Triermain become your taunt, De Vaux your scorn?
42359Lo, yonder doth Earl Harold come, Did one at table say:''Tis well, reply''d the mettl''d Duke, How will he get away?
42359Nature all abounds in love, What is there but feels its power?
42359No-- let me seek some cavern drear, Where not a sound can meet my ear, But groans of death, and shrieks of fear, The music of despair?
42359Nor is there any one in sight All round, in hollow, or on height: Nor shout, nor whistle, strikes the ear; What is the creature doing here?
42359Now civil war has spent its savage rage, Say, shall we now for anarchy engage?
42359Now, when these merry tidings reach''d The Earl of Harold''s ears, And am I, quoth he, with an oath, Thus slighted by my peers?
42359Obeying custom, I intend Some little birthday gift to send-- But stay, what must it be?
42359Or my arm a lady''s lily hand, That an English Lord should lightly me?
42359See how they gallop down yon rock!-- What mortal eye can bear the shock?
42359Shall such a wretch as that presume to be my rival in the affections of the loveliest maid in Cumberland?
42359Then James is still left among you?

42359What hath the husbandman done wrong That he must spoil his grain?
42359What means the spectre?
42359What mortal force shall bide their brunt?
42359What the poor widow, and what the child, That they must all be slain?
42359What then, Damoetas, were the dire alarms That rent thy manly bosom?
42359What thought was Roland''s first when fell, In that deep wilderness, the knell Upon his startled ear?
42359What''s attraction, pray, but love?

42359Where is the Maiden of mortal strain, That may match with the Baron of Trierman?

45366''How is it that his coming pleaseth thee more than that of any other king?'' 45366 ''What meaneth all this noise?''
45366Doubtless,cried the opponents,"he is our lord; but is it not enough for us to pay him his dues?
45366Oh, king,exclaimed Godwin,"why is it that, on the slightest recollection of your brother, you always look so angrily on me?
45366What need I fear of thee? 45366 What, though those golden eagles of the sun Have gone for ever, and we are alone, Shall we sit here and mourn?
45366Who are these men advancing towards us?
45366And are all our pious endeavours now frustrated by the dissolute lives of the priests?
45366And what matters it whether or not we believe in all these mighty epochs?
45366And whither should I fly, after having wandered through so many provinces in Britain without finding a shelter?
45366Are not all such things so?
45366As to my sister, whom the duke claims, to marry her to one of his chiefs, she died this year:--would he have me send him her body?"
45366But what is the lot of a brave man but to die amongst the first?
45366Could his seneschal have deceived him, or could they be so disloyal as to refuse to furnish him with the aid he required?
45366Did I deny support and establishments to the clergy or the convents?
45366Had the gifted young prince offended Edburga by refusing her hand, and was this jealousy aroused by queen Drida and her daughter?
45366How can I escape my persecutor?"
45366How looked those British fathers and husbands when they again met the Saxon slayers in battle?
45366Now, if these gods had been of any real use, would they not have assisted me, instead of them?
45366Ought we not, then, to feel alarmed, who covet them so much, yet are everyway as transient?
45366Say what kings accompany thee?--how many have come with thee from the combat?''
45366Such fancies would naturally float over their benighted minds, for at what other conclusions could they arrive from what they now saw?
45366The next question he asked was whether the inhabitants were Christians or Pagans?
45366This is a grave charge; but where, with one or two exceptions, could he in his whole kingdom find a kindred mind to his own?
45366Thou must also give thy sister in marriage to one of my barons"( Did he mean queen Editha?)
45366Was my assistance ever wanting to the poor?
45366What had he gained by the eight hard- fought battles he shared in the year before his accession to the crown?
45366What matters it about the date when such things once were, or at what time or place they first appeared?
45366What should we have known of the earlier Britons but for Julius Cæsar?
45366What were the thoughts of Alfred while he looked full in the face of his enemy as he stood before him in his tent?
45366What would we not now give to know all that he had seen?
45366What would you have me do?
45366What, are you amazed?
45366When did you call for supplies which I refused you?
45366When that my care could not withhold thy riots, What wilt thou do, when riot is thy care?
45366Where is he that supported and feasted me?
45366Who more likely than they to oppose his wise plans-- to thwart him when he was anxiously labouring for the good of his subjects?
45366Who so blind, that he can not see the chain which now reached from Normandy to Rome-- the links, William, Lanfranc, and all the friends of the pope?
45366Who so grateful as duke William-- who so highly honoured as the monk, Lanfranc, the man who had more power over the pontiff than the duke himself?
45366Whom shall I praise, now Urien is no more?
45366and are we not ourselves like a river, that hurries headlong and heedlessly along to the dark and illimitable ocean of time?
45366exclaimed Braghi;''why are so many warriors in motion, and for whom are all these seats prepared?''
53473''What shall I do for my wife?''
53473''What,''he asked prophetically,''if the natives should rebel?
53473He admitted that Bishop Leslie of Raphoe was learned, but then was he not a suffragan of Armagh?
53473His work soon crumbled away, as the work of despots generally does, for who can secure a fitting successor?
53473If the case of the newly- made freeholder stood thus, what must have been the feelings of men who were made altogether landless?
53473Is it wonderful that the Scotch thirsted for his blood, or that he was believed, however untruly, to favour the religion of Rome?
53473Is nothing exempted from it?
53473Was there ever man such an Adonis, think you?''
53473What scandal of his Majesty''s service it might be in a time thus conditioned to employ a general and a whole army in a manner Roman Catholics?
53473What, the Irish annalists ask, might not the young in this distinguished company have achieved if they had been allowed to grow up in Ireland?
53473What,''he exclaimed,''if I had created 40 noblemen and 400 boroughs?
53526Have you not,he exclaimed,"a number of chaplains, to whom ye have departed very liberally with spiritual promotions?
53526''What is it of the clock?''
53526--"Yea,"said he,"what though?
53526A pamphlet published in 1536 says of him:"Who was less beloved in the north than my lord cardinal before he was amongst them?
53526If heresies arise, is it my fault?
53526Tried by this standard, who could hope to escape?
53526What was the profit to Henry of Wolsey''s intricate foreign policy if it did not allow him to get a divorce when he pleased?
53526Who better beloved after he had been there a while?
53526Why should he deal tenderly with the papal authority when it threw such obstacles in his way?
53526Why should he permit the slow transformation of the monasteries when with a little trouble their spoil would fall into his hands?
53526Why should he spare the Church when its bishops protested against him?
53526Wolsey angrily answered that Richard was a usurper and a murderer of his nephews; how could his acts be good?
10351And as the character of the British merchants exempts them from any suspicion of practices pernicious to the publick, why should they be restrained?
10351And do not the officers receive a reward which their service can not deserve?
10351And for what other purpose, my lords, should such a change of our style be proposed?
10351And how has any man been originally prejudiced against the present minister?
10351And if the arguments which arise from success are equal on both sides, ought not the necessity of saving the publick money to turn the balance?
10351And if we are thus obliged to form new schemes, must we not impute the defeat of the former to our own imprudent zeal, or unseasonable curiosity?
10351And is it not possible that by one interruption upon another, our measures may be delayed, till they shall be ineffectual?
10351And is it probable that the queen would have preferred money for troops, had she not been informed that it would be more easily obtained?
10351And is not the chief question at a trial the past conduct of the person at the bar?
10351And is not the owner''s fortune equally impaired, whether the ship is dashed upon a rock, or seized by a privateer?
10351And shall our sailors lose the reward of their hazards and their labours, only because they have been successful?
10351And that, therefore, it is prudent for every man, who can judge only upon the authority of others, to suspend his opinion?
10351And what answer, sir, can we return to such remonstrances, unless this motion be agreed to?
10351And what consequence but total ruin can arise from the prosecution of measures, by which we are already reduced to penury and contempt?
10351And what consequences have they produced?
10351And what is an army without discipline, subordination, and obedience?
10351And what reason, sir, can be assigned, why that which is criminal in one man, should be innocent in another?
10351And who will expect that those will defend their allies, who desert themselves?
10351And yet, my lords, it is inquired why the people assert that there is a_ sole_ minister?
10351Are the determinations of the judges set in opposition to the decrees of the senate?
10351Are they bargemen or watermen, who ply on rivers and transport provision or commodities from one inland town to another?
10351Are they to sit at ease only because they are idle, or to be distinguished with indulgence only for want of deserving it?
10351Are we to confess that we have now for two sessions voted in the dark, and approved what we were not suffered to examine and understand?
10351Are_ seafaring_ men those only who navigate in the_ sea_?
10351As our need of seamen, sir, is immediate, why should not a law for their encouragement immediately operate?
10351But if this objection could be surmounted by severity and vigilance, would not this expedient help to defeat the general intention of the bill?
10351But of this boundless usurpation, my lords, what proof has been laid before you?
10351But what are fleets unfurnished with men?
10351But what interest can be gratified by a man who is not master of his own actions, nor secure in the enjoyment of his acquisitions?
10351But what reason, sir, can be assigned for which it must be more difficult to supply the fleet now with sailors than at any other time?
10351But what, sir, have those urged in defence of their own opinions, who so freely animadvert upon the reasonings of others?
10351But which of your lordships will affirm, that this is now the state of Europe?
10351But, my lords, if any man may be condemned unheard, if judgment may precede evidence, what safety or what confidence can integrity afford?
10351But, sir, is not the spirit of our enemies the consequence rather of our cowardice than of their own strength?
10351Can this be termed a chimerical suspicion, which nothing can be produced to support?
10351Every seafaring man is to be seized, at pleasure, by the magistrate; but what definition is given of a seafaring man?
10351For how could those be refused in their age the comforts of ease and repose, who have served their country with their youth and vigour?
10351For how far may such a retrospect be extended?
10351For upon what are they founded, but upon the impossibility of executing such designs?
10351For what will be imagined by his majesty, by the nation, and by the whole world, but that we did not approve what we did not answer?
10351For who will bring up his son a waterman, who knows him exposed by that profession to be impressed for a seaman?
10351For who will support those from whom no mutual support can be expected?
10351For, my lords, what is the evidence of common fame, which has been so much exalted, and so confidently produced?
10351From a man who is condemned to labour and to danger, only that others may fatten with indolence, and slumber without anxiety?
10351From a man who is dragged to misery without reward, and hunted from his retreat, as the property of his master?
10351How can his true opinion be discovered?
10351How can power appear but by the exercise of it?
10351How can we approve measures, of which we discover no effect but the expense of the nation?
10351How has the conduct of his present majesty any resemblance with that of Charles the first?
10351How is all this to be effected without murmurs, mutinies, or discontent, but by the natural and easy method of offering rewards?
10351How long, then, my lords, and in what degree must it have been established, to obtain undoubted credit, and when does it commence infallible?
10351How or when have they forfeited the common privilege of human nature, or the general protection of the laws of their country?
10351How shall a law be executed, or a penalty inflicted, when the magistrate has no certain marks whereby he may distinguish a criminal?
10351How soon may the Dutch see their barrier attacked, and call upon us for the ten thousand men which we are obliged to send them?
10351How soon may the house of Austria be so distressed, as to require all our power for its preservation?
10351How then, my lords, can it be asserted by us, that the house of Austria has been vigilantly supported?
10351How will it be more reasonable to drag these men from their houses, than to seize any other gentleman upon his own estate?
10351How will they maintain the dominion of the sea, by lying unactive in our harbours?
10351I am asked, whether it is not the chief question at the bar of our courts of justice, what is the character of the prisoner?
10351If a man may be punished, sir, by a law made after the fact, how can any man conclude himself secure from the jail or the gibbet?
10351If any man shall refuse to pay his rates or his taxes, will not his goods be seized by force, and sold before his face?
10351If he did not intend a parallel between ship- money and the present bill, to what purpose was his observation?
10351If he is only endeavouring to gain what has been forcibly withheld from him, what right have we to obstruct his undertaking?
10351If it be inquired what necessity there is for our present forces?
10351If our danger, sir, be such as has been represented, to whom must we impute it?
10351If short voyages are not comprehended in this provision, what are we now controverting?
10351If the credulity of the people exposes them to so easy an admission of every report, why have the writers for the minister found so little credit?
10351If the sailor, sir, is exposed to greater dangers in time of war, is not the merchant''s trade carried on, likewise, at greater hazard?
10351If this sum is really intended to support the queen of Hungary, may we not inquire how it is to be employed for her service?
10351If we consult history, my lords, how seldom do we find an innocent minister overwhelmed with infamy?
10351In the mean time, sir, how much shall we embarrass our own commerce, and impair our natural strength-- the power of our fleets?
10351Inquire, says he, of the workmen in the docks, have they not double wages for double labour?
10351Is a man, who has once only lost sight of the shore, to be for ever hunted as a seaman?
10351Is a man, who has purchased an estate, and built a seat, to solicit the admiralty for a protection from the neighbouring constable?
10351Is a man, who, by traffick, has enriched a family, to be forced from his possessions by the authority of an impress?
10351Is a soldier to fatten on delicacies, and to revel in superfluities, for fourpence a- day?
10351Is any man injured in his property by an unlimited extension of the prerogative?
10351Is any money levied by order of the council?
10351Is any villain there convicted but by the influence of his character?
10351Is fame rather a settled opinion, prevailing by degrees, and for some time established?
10351Is he to change his fare, with all the capriciousness of luxury, and relieve, by variety, the squeamishness of excess?
10351Is it intended, by this motion, that the innkeepers shall judge what ought to be allowed the soldier for his money?
10351Is it not, therefore, evident, my lords, that by promising assistance to this unhappy princess, the ministry intended to deceive her?
10351Is it reasonable that any man should rate his labour according to the immediate necessities of those that employ him?
10351Is it to be sent her for the payment of her armies, and the support of her court?
10351Is not the freight, equally with the sailors, threatened at once by the ocean and the enemy?
10351Is there any apparent advantage to be gained by assuming a false character?
10351Is there any improbability in the nature of the fact, that should incline us to suspect his veracity?
10351It having been observed by some of the members, that it was printed in one of the daily papers, he was asked, who carried it thither?
10351It is first to be inquired, my lords, whether the reports of fame are necessarily or even probably true?
10351It is then right to vest some persons with the power of apprehending him, and in whom is that power to be lodged, but in the civil magistrate?
10351It was to little purpose that he laid down the petition, if he placed it within reach of his inspection?
10351May it not be lavished to support that power, to which our grants have too long contributed?
10351May not the sum demanded for the support of the queen of Hungary be employed to promote very different interests?
10351May they not justly, sir, require of their representatives some reason for such inexplicable conduct?
10351May we not all justly hope, that alacrity, unanimity, and prudence, may, in a much shorter time, reduce our enemies to beg for peace?
10351Might we not hope for success, if we have calculated the events of war, and made a suitable preparation?
10351Of this, my lords, can it be maintained that they have no proof?
10351Or by what characteristick is the magistrate to distinguish him?
10351Or can it be charged upon him that he enjoys more than his share of the felicities of life?
10351Or how shall we fix such fugitive reasonings, such variable rhetorick?
10351Or upon what motive can he act who will not become more happy by doing his duty?
10351Or what dangers are feared?
10351Or what passion or interest can any man gratify, by imagining or declaring his country on the verge of ruin?
10351Or why is not that proper to be advanced now, that will be proper in twenty days?
10351Or why should he repel the injuries which will make no addition to his misery, and will fall only on those to whom he is enslaved?
10351Or why should officers expose themselves to the hazard of censure without advantage?
10351Or with what propriety can it be mentioned in our debates, or produce an argument on either side?
10351Ought not some limits to be set to his expectations, and some restraints prescribed to his appetite?
10351Ought we not rather to animate them by our activity, instruct them by our example, and awaken them by our representations?
10351Ought we not to catch the alarm while it is possible to make preparation against the danger?
10351Ought we not to improve, with the utmost diligence, the important interval?
10351Perhaps the other powers say to themselves, and to one another, Why should we keep that treaty which Britain is violating?
10351That it involves a multitude of relations, and is diffused through a great variety of circumstances?
10351The debate upon this particular, will be at length reduced to a question, whether a law for this purpose is just and expedient?
10351The doorkeeper was called in, and, being shown the paper, was asked from whom he received it?
10351To these ravages and injuries what did we oppose?
10351To what purpose are rewards offered, if they are denied to those who come to claim them?
10351Upon whom are our weakness, our poverty, and our miseries to be charged?
10351Were our fleets manned in an instant?
10351What advantage can arise from delays?
10351What but humble intreaties, pacifick negotiations, and idle remonstrances?
10351What but poverty and distractions at home, and the contempt and insults of foreign powers?
10351What but the expedience of a law that will never be executed?
10351What can prove any degree of influence or authority, but universal submission and acknowledgment?
10351What could be expected from their councils and direction?
10351What expeditions are designed?
10351What greater calamity has that man to expect, who has been already deprived of his liberty, and reduced to a level with thieves and murderers?
10351What have the Spaniards suffered that can be opposed to the detriment which the commerce of this nation feels from the detention of our sailors?
10351What part of this transaction, my lords, can be supposed to fall under the cognizance of this assembly?
10351What proofs, sir, have they given of the superiority of their own abilities, of the depth of their researches, or the acuteness of their penetration?
10351What will be the event of these commotions who can discover?
10351What will this be less than making their bravery a crime or folly, and punishing them for not protracting the war by cowardice or treachery?
10351When two armies, modelled according to these different schemes, enter the field, what event can be expected?
10351Whence comes it, my lords, that falsehood is more successful than truth, and that the nation is inclined to complain rather than to triumph?
10351Who can assure us that this law will not be perverted, after the example of others?
10351Who is there by whom such negligence will not be resented?
10351Who is there, my lords, whose indignation is not raised at such ignominy?
10351Who would not have been terrified, my lords, at a treaty like this?
10351Why have no complaints been made by those that have been injured?
10351Why is his guilt supposed greater if his power is only equal?
10351Why must the sailors alone, sir, be marked out from all the other orders of men for ignominy and misery?
10351Why must they be ranked with the enemies of society, stopped like vagabonds, and pursued like the thief and the murderer by publick officers?
10351Why should he be solicitous to increase his property, who may be torn from the possession of it in a moment?
10351Why should not they be most diligent in the prosecution of an affair who have most to lose by its miscarriage?
10351Why should we believe that they will suffer without complaint, and be injured without resentment?
10351Why should we expose ourselves to danger, of which that mighty nation, so celebrated for courage, is afraid?
10351Why should we imagine that the race of men for whom those cruelties are preparing, have less sensibility than ourselves?
10351Why should we rush into war, in which our most powerful ally seems unwilling to support us?
10351Will it not be readily believed, that we propose to abandon those designs of which we can not be persuaded to declare our approbation?
10351Will the breach of faith in others excuse it in us?
10351With what spirit, sir, will he draw his sword upon his invaders, who has nothing to defend?
10351Would he not ask, why the general practice of mankind is charged as a crime upon him only?
10351Would not such measures animate our enemies, and invite an invasion?
10351Would not the sailors refuse to contract with them?
10351Would they not soon consider themselves as a separate community, whose interests were, no less than their laws, peculiar to themselves?
10351[ Several other lords spoke in the debate, and the president having put the previous question,"Whether the question should be then put?"
10351and how shall that majority be numbered?
10351and how the fleet may be manned with less detriment to commerce?
10351and that there will not be wretches found that may employ it to the extortion of money, or the gratification of revenge?
10351and whether they do not raise clamours against the government for their ill success, to avoid the suspicion of negligence or fraud?
10351did we surprise our enemies by our expedition, and make conquests before an invasion could be suspected?
10351how the nation may be secured without injury to individuals?
10351or any tribunal established superiour to the laws of the nation?
10351or at what time, after having intruded into the house, can any man presume to consider himself as exempt from the danger of imprisonment?
10351or desert them after a contract, upon the first prospect of more advantageous employment?
10351or how can he maintain forces without supplies?
10351or that he should raise his own fortune by the publick calamities?
10351or why should we make those laws which our affairs oblige us to enact, less agreeable to the people by partial representations?
10351that power by which ourselves have been awed, and the administration has tyrannised without control?
10351to raise with one hand and demolish with the other?
10351were our harbours immediately crowded with sailors?
10351whether they do not direct their courses where privateers may most securely cruise?
10351whether they do not surrender with less resistance than interest would excite?
10351whether they do not wilfully miss the security of convoys?
10351who will increase the influence that is to be exerted against him, or add strength to the blow that is levelled at himself?

44557DAY THE FOURTH Sunday, September 4th-- and we had started on September 1st; was it possible we had only been travelling four days?
44557Did you ever see such big blackberries?
44557Here it occurs to me, as it did this day to a practical youthful mind,"What in the world do people know about King Arthur?"
44557How in the world do the St. Aubyns manage when they go out to dinner?
44557How shall I ever get them now?
44557I put, smiling, the careless question,"Have you any little folks of your own?
44557If it would n''t trouble anybody very much, might n''t we go again to Whitesand Bay?"
44557Ives?"
44557Look here, ladies, what do you think this is?"
44557Looking up, one felt almost like a disembodied soul, free to cleave through infinite space and gain-- what?
44557Many of the sailors are said to come on board"half- seas over,"and could the skilfullest of pilots save a ship with a drunken crew?
44557Now, ladies, d''ye think you can jump ashore?"

44557Of course you know about launce- fishing?"
44557Of course you''ve heard of Mary Mundy?"

44557Shall we row there?

52094The Abbot inquired,"What news?"
52094The King replied:"Is my son dead, unhorsed, or so badly wounded that he can not support himself?"
52094The King, who found himself very disagreeably situated, turning to him, asked,"To whom shall I surrender myself; to whom?

56429Well,he continued,"if any one were to give you two shillings, what would you do?"
56429For what did those men live and labour?
56429He who was himself as a little child, in his innocence, goodness, and truth,--where else and how else could he so fitly rest?

49701Did he personate an insured person to oblige someone else?
49701Do you see a broad- shouldered, burly, kindly- looking man walking quietly along the street?

49701Who that sat near those two little boys as they cheered a boundary hit would have thought that they had that morning murdered their mother?
49701Why, then, has he bought twenty sets?
49701Why, under these circumstances, is there no home for him-- no position open to him in which at least he could earn the rent of a private lodging?

52740Then you''ve been here during the rising?
52740What''s your name?
52740When did you come to Dublin?
52740Who taught you to shoot like that?
52740Would poets, pedagogues, and dreamers dare to lead the Irish people against the imperial power that had dominated them for centuries? 52740 Could I have made a mistake? 52740 Could all the family be somewhere else? 52740 Did they scurry away to grow up into better British subjects? 52740 How else would we dare to revolt against the British Empire? 52740 Is it any wonder that the wordrent"has a fearful sound to the Irish?
52740It is sung to the tune of"Who Fears to Speak of''98?"
52740No man has complained, no man has asked"why?".
52740No man has complained, no man has asked''why?''.
52740Or are we content to remain as slaves and idly watch the final extermination of the Gael?
52740Presently news came from Dublin that James Connolly had written a play entitled,"Under which Flag?"
52740The man who sung it, called Brian na Banba, was deported by the English after the rising: HARP OR LION?
52740What could have happened?
52740What could it mean?
52740What if school- boys under a Gaelic name_ did_ play at soldiering?
52740What if some of the sagas, revived by archæologists,_ did_ picture Irish heroism?
52740What if the theme of play or poem_ was_ a free Ireland?
52740What was this British reasoning that determined who should go in company with his fellows and who should go alone?
52740What, then, could they be expected to do to a body of men who stood for law and order instead of opposing it as in Ulster?
52740Where was she?
52740Who dares its fate deplore?
52740Who would want to engage in business in a place where such high hopes had been blasted?
52740Why were these men not treated as prisoners of war?
52740Would that disturb him, I wondered?
52740and begins: Who fears to speak of Easter Week?
657How more rueful?
657Moreover, we might ask, if our whole dependence had been centered in Bede, what would have become of us after his death?
657This year Aethan, King of the Scots, fought against the Dalreods and against Ethelfrith, king of the North- humbrians, at Daegsanstane[ Dawston?
657To those who are unacquainted with this monument of our national antiquities, two questions appear requisite to be answered:--"What does it contain?"
657What shall I say?
657What then?
657Who could be angry after this?
657Who will not be penetrated with grief at such a season?
657and,"By whom was it written?"
657or who is so hardhearted as not to weep at such misfortune?
47990But surely,I said,"you must know these that are so common-- these little blue flowers, for instance, what do you call them?"
47990Do you mean that?
47990Do you not then see anything to admire in it?
47990He said it were a hundred years since he saw me-- now what did parson mean by that?
47990How far is it to Zennor?
47990I wonder,he wrote,"did you see much of the marvellous migration scene which took place here on Friday morning?
47990I wonder,said I,"what has become of the others?
47990What are those?
47990What does this mean?
47990What would you get,I asked them,"if one of the men caught you stoning the gulls?"
47990What, then, did you have them in your pockets for?
47990Why, Billy, whatever have you got there?
47990Ai n''t they pretty?"
47990And what do the landlords git?
47990And why had he not been warned?
47990Being on the land, what else could he be?
47990But what about the charge?
47990But what are the facts of the case as to the condition of Cornwall, with regard to drunkenness, before its conversion to Methodism?
47990But who was Mr. Ebblethwaite, and what was it he did about the gulls?
47990But who, beyond the line or two, has ever in verse or prose said anything in praise of the furze?
47990But you ca n''t have something for nothing, can you?
47990Did any of them town idlers, them that worked a day or two once a week or month-- did they knaw what the land gave?
47990Did they knaw what''tis to git up before dawn every day, Sundays as well, and work all day till after dark, all just for a bare living?
47990Here there are great blocks and slabs of granite which have been artificially hollowed into basins-- for what purpose, who shall say?
47990I wonder if it''s some very old pilchards they''ve found stowed away in some corner?"
47990Now can you tell me what bird was that?"
47990Shall they refuse to take any good thing he chooses to send them?
47990The others were silent for a little, and then one said,"Do you think it wise to say much about everlasting punishment at the present juncture?"
47990The question, Did the Cornish people have a sense of humour?
47990They may appear equally inconsistent-- the Somerset man and the Cornishman-- but can we say that one is morally worse than the other?
47990To live without work?
47990Was there a particle of truth in it?
47990What are they, these other islands, and what do we know of them?
47990What did they think they''d get?
47990What do they mean, then, by saying the land will pay?
47990What is the reason of this?
47990What will happen now?
47990What, then, did they expect?
47990Who''s to pay for it then?
47990Why are the Cornish more temperate than others?
47990Will it?
47990With regard to honesty it is one I always hear with surprise; for can it be said that we are as a people honest?
47990what are those fellows making such a to- do about-- down there on that chimney- pot?
6064''What are those?''
6064''Woman, what is your husband, and your name?''
6064But what earthly comfort is exempt from change?
6064But when the rebels went to give an account to Cromwell of their meritorious act, he immediately asked them where Mr. Fanshawe was?

55405He put himself at the head of the Enniskillen cavalry, saying,''What will you do for me?''
55405His whole career is a comment on Wellington''s question-- How is the King''s government to be carried on?
55405If otherwise, he concluded,''who am I?
55405Shall I throw it into the kennel?''
55405Were they, he asked, all to be cast out for one fault?
55405What shall we say unto these things?

52473''Oh, a boy?''
52473''Pray, sir, may I ask what department you belong to?''
52473''Slip off at three?''
52473''Stroll in,''said the minister, in surprise;''then I presume you do not leave until a late hour?''
52473''Two hundred mortars being expected from France and England, can the town be destroyed by this means and an assault obviated?''
52473''Was you ever engaged at the Surrey in London?''
52473''Who?''
52473But is this really essential?
52473Can it be taken?
52473During dinner he turned gravely to one of the old Indian officers and said,''Can you tell me, what is a dhobie?''
52473He asked him about his Victoria Cross, and then, seeing he had the Crimean medal and clasp for Inkerman, said:''Were you at that battle?''
52473He said:''Why all this pressing to send British officers, when you declare that you have no wish to interfere in the internal affairs of Afghanistan?
52473He went up to Sir Edward, and remarked:''You lost your leg in the Crimea?''
52473I asked, where and what to do, neither enemy nor guns being in sight?
52473It is related that on his arrival he inquired of Sir Alexander if he remembered the last occasion on which they had met?
52473Looking about the room, and seeing a general officer at some distance, he inquired:''Who is that great man in a red coat?''
52473On this being brought to his notice, it is said, and I believe truly, that he observed:"Not loyal to the English?
52473One, looking over the parapet, said to his comrade:"Alphonse, êtes- vous prêt?"
52473Presently he turned round to me and said,''You wo n''t be offended, will you?''
52473Subject considered:''A telegraphic despatch from England, Can the town be destroyed?
52473Subject:''Whether, in case the town should not fall before the winter, it may not be necessary to raise the siege?''
52473The officer at once remarked:''If one stove saves half the fuel, why do n''t you buy two of them, and save the whole of it?''
52473This seemed rather incomprehensible, so I added,''Where is his brother?''
52473What is it?''
52473What is your reason?''
52473What was a chew- patty?
52473What were their duties?
52473What will you do next?''
52473Who was the brave Jones?
48065I was asked my reasons for visiting the gaols? 48065 Was she a woman?"
48065_ Earnest._ And what should I do there, where men go out of curiosity and interest, not for the sake of religion? 48065 And how can you ever expect the blessing of God upon your undertakings, if you neglect and despise, and in effect destroy and abolish his service? 48065 And shall such a Church, that ought to be a pattern of regular devotion to others, be the first to set an example of irreligion? 48065 And whereunto shall I liken our past inadvertency, that it may abide as a memorial to us and to our children? 48065 And will you, Gentlemen, suffer so good a work, which hath been carried on so many years, to perish in your hands? 48065 Are not some disappointed in the success of a prescription from the most judicious hand? 48065 Are not the degrees of distempers and the constitutions of men various? 48065 Are the best physicians or most eminent surgeons ashamed of their prescriptions? 48065 Are they not all turned into warehouses? 48065 Are you a Christian? 48065 But if you can not or will not attend the prayers yourselves, yet why should you hinder others who would attend? 48065 But of all charges and expences why must this of the daily prayers be the first to be retrenched? 48065 But why have you not time? 48065 Can all people eat the most innocent food with equal advantage? 48065 Can he suppose it possible that, in describing the Manners of the Metropolis, the eccentricities of its inhabitants should be omitted? 48065 Do they abound in_ shameful lies_"( the gross words of the Reviewer)?
48065For what will avail all your care and attention, all your labour and pains, without the blessing of God to prosper them?
48065Good Sir, because_ you know_ how we_ all live at present_, are we not to inform those who succeed us how_ we have lived_?
48065Has the Reviewer read that indefatigable and accurate author Keysler?
48065Have we now any shops?
48065Have you read the Tatler to- day?''
48065How shall I number these signs, or the streets where they most abound?
48065How then am I( who had not received the breath of life in 1758) to draw a faithful picture of the manners of that period?
48065It was then asked me, if it was done at my own expence?
48065Now, what but blind and indiscriminating acrimony could dictate the above remarks?
48065Or, what_ novelty of information_ could arise from describing the domestic occurrences of families in general?
48065Shall any man''s misery prevail upon his credulity to make him more miserable?
48065Was ever any one thing infallible?
48065Was you at the Park last night, Madam?
48065Were they not periodical publications?
48065What are you doing better?
48065What does he say to the Spectator, the Tatler, the World, the Rambler, the Guardian, the Observator, the Female Tatler?
48065What sagacity was required to narrate facts as clear as noon- day?
48065Why is this pleasing custom neglected and forgotten?
48065and will they depend upon what has no known author, and who refers them to the advice of some able Surgeon after cheating them himself?
48065or are they not considered as faithful sketches of those customs which escape the notice of the Historian?
48065or what lady will purchase her bandeaus, her ribbands, gloves,& c.& c. from the hands of a young woman, when the same shop contains-- a young_ man_?
48065or will any Surgeon expose his patient?
48065or, have you only the name from education, as it is the professed Religion of your Country?
39790And what do you think of Scotland noo?
39790But do you ken Burns?
39790But what about a woman?
39790By the way, has Black ever written any other story quite so good as that? 39790 Call this a river?"
39790Do you really think you could go all the way to Inverness?
39790Does Herbert Spencer write so clearly and simply as that upon such subjects?
39790Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
39790Has she children?
39790Have you the revised edition here yet?
39790This is all very well, my friend, but where are the other five volumes?
39790Well, I do n''t believe it would do him any good to shoot him, do you, madam?
39790What do you think of Scotland noo?
39790What do you think of Scotland noo?
39790What is it then, Andrea?
39790What is that up there?
39790What is the matter? 39790 What is wrong?"
39790What on earth,I said to him,"has a small English hotel to do with a pea- sheller?
39790What would you do, Tom, if you should receive a message commanding you to offer up your son upon the altar?
39790Why have you done this?
39790You did not know I was George Eliot, but you were drawn to plain me all for my own self, a woman? 39790 ''Didna ye hear? 39790 ''Wilt thou dare?'' 39790 And now I remember Shakespeare has his say too about the lark-- what is it in England he has not his say about? 39790 And was there ever a band of Gypsies happier than we, or freer from care? 39790 Are you ill? 39790 Are you less a man? 39790 But if stern justice urge rebuke And warmth from memory borrow, When shall we chide, if chide we must? 39790 But is there not a little ambiguity in thetoo long should grow?"
39790But should she frown with face of care, And speak of coming sorrow, When shall we grieve, if grieve we must?
39790But what kind of fruit could be expected from the tree of privilege?
39790But where will imperialism get such another leader, after all?
39790Can any one picture a resting- place so full of peace and beauty as the old Izaak Walton Inn?
39790Can civilized man find nothing better to furnish needful recreation after useful toil?

39790Could he inform him?
39790Did any one take you, Thomas Carlyle, for a fine, symmetrical sycamore, or a graceful clinging vine?
39790Did you not give us a lively description the other evening of your riding after the hounds?
39790Didna ye hear?''
39790Do any people love their country as passionately as the Scotch?
39790Do you know any work so hard as this?
39790Do you know why the American worships the starry banner with a more intense passion than even the Briton does his flag?
39790Do you see rugged Ben Alder yonder, the highest of the group that looks down into the still waters of the lake?
39790Do you see that eminence a mile away yonder, on the north, whose sides slope down into the plain?

39790Happiness is known to be a great beautifier-- but is it not also a great doer of good to others?

39790He sang a beautiful Scotch song to- day,"Cowden Knowes,"and when he was done Andrew immediately asked:"Whaur did ye get that?
39790He then gave us the second verse:"If those who''ve wronged us own their faults And kindly pity pray, When shall we listen and forgive?
39790His eyes twinkled as he replied:"Where goee, eh?
39790How can people be got to live such terrible lives as they seem condemned to here?
39790How could we give such a woman children and look you in the face?
39790How shall I render the unanimous verdict of the company upon the life we had led?
39790I won the good man''s heart at once by saying that small though it was in size( and what has either he or I to boast of in that line, I wonder?)
39790I''ve read some of yer books; they''re vera amusin''; ye ken Scotch scenery well; but when are yer goin''to do some_ wark_, man?"
39790In due time came a return missive from the proud City of the River:"Will I go to Paradise for three months on a coach?
39790Is it not cheering to find poor women getting an advance?
39790Is it not strange that no one has ever imitated this man''s unique style?
39790Is it the opera?
39790Is n''t it glorious to make one''s friends so happy?
39790Is not that capital?
39790Is not that to the purpose?
39790It consists of 148 pages, mostly given up to notices of the titled people who visited the old town long ago; but who cares about them?
39790It runs thus:"Who lyeth heare?
39790Let other nations ask themselves where are_ our_ Lincolns and Garfields?
39790Many times to- day, in the exhilaration of the moment, one or another enthusiastic member called out,"What do ye think o''Scotland noo?"
39790Mr. Duncan, has in savings- banks?
39790O ye self- constituted rulers of men in Europe, know you not that the knell of dynasties and of rank is sounding?
39790Of what other human being could these two things be truly said?
39790Off for Keswick, only twelve miles distant; but who wants to hurry away from scenes like these?
39790Shall we go by Compton Verney( there is a pretty English name for you), Wellesbourn, and Hastings?
39790Shall we not take our ease in our inn?
39790The question came up to- day at luncheon, would one ever tire of this gypsy life?
39790There are whispering sounds in the glen:"Shades of the dead, have I not heard your voices Rise on the night- rolling breath of the gale?
39790To be sure, why not?
39790True, but what are kings and princes for?
39790Was it any wonder that we attracted attention during our progress northward?
39790Was it not Johnson''s idea of happiness to drive in a gig with a pretty woman?
39790Were we really at the opera, then?
39790What I do''ee?
39790What are the Charioteers, after all, in their happiest dream, but aristocratic gypsies?
39790What could you add that would not weaken that?
39790What did such people expect, I wonder?
39790What is the use of"argie bargieing"about it?
39790What matters it what she was?
39790What says Annie''s song?
39790What was to be done?
39790What worm gnaws at her heart and makes her life so petty?
39790When shall we look upon its like again?"
39790Where is another trio that could do that, think you?
39790Where met he the genius of tragedy, think you?
39790Who cares what the Reverend Mr. Froth preaches nowadays, when he ventures beyond the homilies?
39790Who ever learnt a Scotch song out of books?

39790Will a second coaching trip do it?
39790Will you lay"violent hands upon the Lord''s anointed?"
39790Would you, my gentle reader, like also to know it?

39790no; evolved?
39790or shall we take our way through Broughton Castle, Tadmarton, Scoalcliffe, Compton Wynyate, and Oxhill?
39790said the cynic,"is that it, Miss?
39790she said,''Put by our sacred books, dethrone our gods, Unpeople all the temples, shaking down That law which feeds the priests and props the realm?''
39790what''s that, and where?
39790why left I my hame?"
53005Where did they find transports?
53005Are we able to purchase at such a rate?
53005Are you not charmed with this speech?
53005Balmerino asked the bystanders, who this person was?
53005But who was the bishop then?
53005Can we force it now?
53005Do you think I will sell you a yard of tenpenny stuff for twenty of Mr. Wood''s halfpence?
53005Does it hinder anything else?
53005He was a knave indeed,--what then?
53005His enemies triumph, but who can envy the triumph of murder?
53005How did you leave our good friends the Dutch?
53005How long have you come from abroad?
53005If there is any good to be done by negociations, or other ways, does it hinder?
53005Perhaps some relation of yours?"
53005The Captain, on his Return, was examined at the Bar of the House of Commons; and being ask''d what his Sentiments were, when threaten''d with Death?
53005The king of Prussia do n''t think of another war, ah?
53005The question is, How can that be done?
53005What Flames will this kindle?
53005What Plunder and Rapine?
53005What burning of Towns, and ransacking of Cities?
53005You have agreed to a law for preventing its being acted, can you refuse your assent to a law forbidding its being printed and published?

53005_ Porteous''_ Apartment, call''d,_ Where is the Villain Porteous?_ who said I''m here, what is it you are to do with me?
53005and where must a Circumvallation or Communication Line of it be placed?
53005are you sure of that?"

53005or do we hope to purchase at a cheaper, when my Lord Marlborough and Prince Eugene are no more?...
53005will you allow an infamous libel to be printed and dispersed, only because it does not bear the title of a play?...
53005will you allow an infamous libel to be printed and dispersed, which you would not allow to be acted?
6659Do,said the king,"for God''s sake, do; but shall you not expose yourself to danger by it?"
6659How should you like to take some passengers?
6659My good woman,said he,"can you be faithful to a distressed Cavalier?"
6659Passengers?
6659Sire,said the duke to his dying brother,"you decline the sacraments of the Protestant Church, will you receive those of the Catholic?"
6659But how could this be done?
6659But how should they accomplish this end?
6659Hearing the footsteps, he called out,"Who goes there?"
6659Her aunt, however, did not believe her, and said,"Then why did you go to bed, if you knew what was going on?"
6659How was this to be done?
6659Will you take them?"
5410And what do they think of us?
5410And what is his opinion?
5410And why not?
5410Do n''t you see,said the officer,"they are some of our own people who are grazing their horses?"
5410He is dead then, I suppose?
5410How comes it?
5410Is it possible,said the other,"that the Chevalier de Grammont should forget La Motte, who had the honour to serve so long in his regiment?"
5410May I see them upon parole?
5410Must I tell you?
5410Nothing can be more civil,said Matta;"but wherefore would you not?"
5410Sir,said the Chevalier de Grammont,"may I take the liberty to inquire how I came to be known to you?"
5410Under what consulate?
5410Very well,said Matta,"and pray what does it signify to us from whence the Grammonts are descended?
5410Well, Monsieur le Chevalier, were they all very glad to see you?
5410Where have you heard that the Chevalier de Grammont had ever any occasion for sleep?
5410Wherein?
5410After all, what does it signify, whether cleanliness be owing to nature or to art?
5410Could it be otherwise?
5410Do not you know, sir, that it is better to know nothing at all, than to know too much?"
5410Has thy charmer e''er an aunt?
5410In what country will not a man succeed, possessing such advantages?
5410Well,"continued he,"what are they doing at Peronne?"
5410Will you now go to Monsieur de Turenne''s quarters, to acquaint him with it; or will you choose rather to repose yourself in mine?
5410for my part, I can not understand the foolish customs of this country; how comes it that they make me a prisoner upon my parole?"
5410how ridiculous it is, that you can never think for yourself?"
5410is it you, my good friend, La Motte?
5410replied the Marquis:"Under that of the League,"said Matta,"when the Guises brought the Lansquenets into France; but what the devil does that signify?"
5410said Matta:"ought they to have been blue, too, to match the cockade and sword- knots you made me wear the other day?
5410said Monsieur de Turenne;"the Prince, no doubt, received you with the greatest kindness, and asked a great number of questions?"
5411Do I say anything untrue?
5411Do not you wonder what strange creatures men are? 5411 Has not little Jermyn, notwithstanding his uncle''s great estate, and his own brilliant reputation, failed in his suit to her?
5411No,said she;"but why do you ask?"
5411Why God be thanked?
5411''A quicksand,''said I,''near Calais?''
5411''But where is it?''
5411''Yes, lost, perished, swallowed up: what can I say more?''
5411Are not we obliged to that same evil genius of yours, which rashly inspired you to intermeddle even in the gallantries of your prince?
5411But can there be any charms at an entertainment, at which you are not present?
5411But, to conclude, for the enumeration of your iniquities would be endless, give me leave to ask you, how you came here?
5411Do not all the places through which you have passed furnish me with a thousand examples?
5411Do you know that she has had the choice of the best matches in England?
5411How many spies did not you send out after d''Olonne?
5411Now, have you any thing to advance against this project?
5411Shall I mention your coup d''essai at Turin?
5411Shall you be at the masquerade to- morrow?
5411The king immediately took notice of it:"Chevalier,"said he,"Termes is not arrived then?"
5411What would have become of you, if your last misfortune had happened to you when your money had been at as low an ebb as I have known it?
5411he surely was not a priest?"
5411said the king;"has anything happened to him on the road?"
5411the trick you played at Fontainebleau, where you robbed the Princess Palatine''s courier upon the highway?
5411was the packet- boat cast away then?''
37570And what,said the queen,"am I to understand from such an unaccountable appeal to me and my family?"
37570And,hastily said her royal highness,"is this, Sir, a specimen of the character of the English royal family?
37570But I hope you will see Lord Hutchinson?
37570Is your majesty aware,said Mr. Pitt,"that at this time the prince is engrossed by a fair beauty?
37570Madam, if you insist upon it, it shall be done; and when will your majesty be pleased to receive it?
37570May not I bring Lord Hutchinson with me, please your majesty?
37570Then,said the queen,"can I wonder at any plan or plans they may invent to accomplish the wish of my husband?
37570To what do you allude?
37570Well, well,said the king,"I hope no bad news?"
37570What could I not add to this page of sorrow, this blot upon our land? 37570 What situation does the person occupy?"
37570What would be deemed a sufficient recompense for his attentions?
37570''Twill out,''twill out!--I hold my peace, sir?
37570''What was the object of it?''
37570''_ I hope you made no rash promise?_''said the king;''None, Sire.''
37570And amongst the courtiers, where is morality to be found?
37570And how was that inquiry then resisted?
37570And to whom ought an unhappy suffering people to have had recourse but to the throne, whose power sanctioned the means used to drain their purses?
37570And were these men to be called soldiers?
37570And what could be better to effect this object than alarming the country with the fear of an invasion?
37570And where was the Earl of Liverpool?
37570Are such_ careful_ proceedings ever adopted in the case of a poor man?
37570Are you, Sir,_ requested_ to represent this to me, or is it your private opinion?"
37570As to"_ blood being on the left cuff and on the side_,"what proof did he adduce of this, for_ he himself never saw the coat at all_?
37570But is it not beneath the dignity of the press to act in so cowardly a manner?
37570But is not this a violation of the most vital interests and solemn engagements to which humanity have subscribed?
37570But was not this a political_ ruse_?
37570But what can any ministers do against the wishes of a determined people?
37570But, O, what form of prayer Can serve my turn?
37570But_ Justice_ asks, why was not the opinion of six medical men,_ at least_, recorded on this very momentous head?
37570Can I believe my royal father_ so great and good_, when I have so long witnessed his unremitted unkindness to my neglected mother?
37570Can it, then, be believed,_ he_ was guilty of the attack upon his royal master?
37570Could Infamy and Blasphemy go any farther?
37570Could no other arm inflict the wound than he who, in happier moments, indulged me with the most apparent unfeigned friendship?
37570Did Strickland_ really_ feel_ surprised_, or was he_ anxious to say so_?
37570Did he interfere with political matters, and exert his energies to enslave the people?
37570Did he loll in gaudy carriages, and look down with supercilious contempt on his poorer brethren?
37570Did he not send down to parliament that message which denounced his queen a criminal?
37570Did he require_ theatres_ for his churches, or_ perfumed_ divines to preach his gospel?
37570Did he wear lawn sleeves and a mitre?
37570Did not this speak volumes as to her intended destruction?
37570Did they not, by such silence, contribute to the peril of females in the most trying moment of nature''s sorrow?
37570Do not the porter''s own words imply, that_ Sellis had been murdered_, and_ not_ that he had_ murdered himself_?
37570Does not nature revolt at this barbarity, this secret unfeeling conduct of the queen?
37570Does not this neglect of the poor afflicted king reflect disgrace upon her majesty?
37570Does the Princess of Wales imagine that I am to submit to_ her_ opinions upon my conduct, or to_ her_ abuse of any of my family?
37570From youth, have not even some of the late queen''s sons been immoral and profane?
37570Had his mistresses detained him too late in the morning?
37570Had she not an eye to her husband''s former alliance with the quakeress, and the Duke of York''s marriage in Italy?
37570Have you not always taught me to consider myself_ heir_ to the first sovereignty in the world?
37570He walked about the room for some time, and then said, abruptly,"I suppose you have read the letters?"
37570Her majesty, therefore, hastily said,"I trust you are convinced of the impropriety of your former opinions?"
37570Her royal highness has many times been heard to say,"Had I been suspicious, pray what should I not have feared?
37570Her royal highness returned to her former situation before the queen, and exclaimed,"What does your majesty mean?"
37570How could this witness know it belonged to Sellis, whom he probably never saw alive?
37570How does this strange and incomprehensible conduct appear to any unbiassed Englishman?
37570How was her royal highness to act in such a trying case?
37570I started, and exclaimed,''What, my dear sire?''
37570If a prince commit an act of injustice, ought he not to be equally amenable with the peasant to the laws of his country?
37570If all had been correct, why refuse inquiry, particularly when it was solicited by nine- tenths of the nation?
37570If our readers should here inquire,_ who_ was Colonel Fox?
37570If so, at whose suit was Mr. Parker to be examined?
37570If such unprecedented injustice be allowed in the case of her majesty, where must we look for an impartial administration of justice?
37570If the horse knew his own strength, would he submit to the dictation of his rider?
37570If this man thought that Sellis_ cut his own throat_, as stated by Mrs. Neale, what did he mean by saying,"he supposed_ SOMEBODY ELSE WAS MURDERED_?"
37570If this were not the case, would his proud heart have allowed him to be insulted by my Lord Bloomfield, or Sir W. Knighton?
37570Is it not contrary to all laws, both human and divine, to suppose"the king can do no wrong?"
37570Is it not monstrous, then, that men could be found so lost to honor as to record a verdict of_ felo de se_?
37570May not the life of her majesty be in the greatest jeopardy, and may not a few hours terminate her mortal existence?
37570Might not an earlier arrangement than this very probably have put the enemy to flight?
37570Might they not have been put there_ afterwards_?
37570Mr. Rolle again asked,"Do you, Sir, speak from DIRECT OR INDIRECT AUTHORITY?"
37570Nay, would not the insulting falsehoods and infamous assertions have been proved treasonable?
37570Nott?"
37570Of these, Lord Sidmouth alone remained; and where was Mr. Canning?
37570Oh, Infamy, art thou not now detected?
37570One of the princesses immediately said,"You do not mean to say that you MURDERED THE PRINCESS CHARLOTTE?"
37570She replied she had, and said,"Doctor, what have you done?"
37570Sir Richard quickly exclaimed,"You bid him not leave them?"
37570The body was said to be embalmed,(?)
37570The free exercise of this invaluable privilege should always be conceded to the HISTORIAN, or where will posterity look for_ impartial information_?
37570War might probably be considered by those in power a_ legal trade_; but was it not continued for the untenable purpose of avarice?
37570Was Mr. Canning''s secession from office a trick?
37570Was he permitted to examine the body?
37570Was his return to it a sacrifice,--a sacrifice of honour and principle,--to the miserable gratification of obtaining_ power_?
37570Was it not by his_ divine_ decree that his consort''s name was erased from the liturgy?
37570Was it not_ only_ for the aggrandizement of your spendthrift brother?
37570Was not such the case in that horrible affair which we have just related?
37570Was the promise that had been given only binding for_ three years_?
37570Was there ever a more artful and vindictive piece of business concocted?
37570Was this their way of showing their high courage and their honour by cutting down_ inoffensive females_?
37570Well, what of that?
37570Were they not concocted by the authority of the monarch, her husband?
37570What extraordinary benefits had he rendered to this oppressed nation to merit such an income?
37570What have I not endured since the moment I became your princess and wife?
37570What indignities has not the queen offered to my persecuted mother?
37570What is a defenceless woman, though a queen, opposed to a despotic and powerful king?
37570What traits of"matronly"goodness or natural affection did she exhibit for the Princess Charlotte, when advancing to the hour of her peril?
37570What unhappiness has not such an unnatural doctrine produced?
37570What will become of me now, wretched lady?
37570What would my ever dear and lamented father have thought of such principles and opinions?
37570Where Lord Castlereagh, and how did he go out of the world?
37570Where are the papers of appeal?
37570Where are the records?
37570Where is your CHARTER TO PRIVILEGE MURDER?"
37570Where shall we look for greater CARE or CONDESCENSION than this?
37570Who are these proud, yet base, tyrants,--who, after destroying the child, still continue their plans to destroy her mother also?
37570Who can be nearer to a wife than her husband?
37570Who is the plaintiff, and who the defendant?
37570Who was the prime minister of that day?
37570Who was the reigning prince of that day?--George the Fourth-- where was he?
37570Who were the principal officers of state of that day?
37570Whoever thought of requiring them to_ criminate themselves_?
37570Why does your royal highness refuse to answer my simple, but honest and honourable inquiry?
37570Why then, my lords, are we to assume to ourselves an executive power, with which even the executive power itself is not entrusted?
37570Why, after the refusal to receive this letter, should the princess be blamed for permitting its contents to be published?
37570Will not such a man, then, be regarded by posterity as a time- server and an apostate?
37570William Henry, were you prepared to prove this to be a speech in favour of your cousin and sister- in- law?
37570With her general air of confidence, the queen said,"I presume, Sir, you are the author of this letter?"
37570Ye sticklers for upholding the present impious system of church government, what say ye to this?
37570_ Why_ did Sir Everard Home omit to mention these important particulars in his attempt to explain away the"mystery of the murder of Sellis?"
37570and do you think it not very likely that she died unfairly?"
37570and how may we reasonably expect that violence will not be offered, if other means fail, to accomplish the intended mischief?
37570but, if I am, why should his majesty take so much interest in my case?"
37570can this be called an impartial administration of justice?
37570is it not disgraceful in the extreme?--are they not found debasing themselves in the most infamous and unnatural manner?
37570or had he been in his most privately- retired apartments,_ conversing with a few of the male favourites of his household in_ ITALIAN?
37570or had they played a_ designed part_ with him, to prove their superior domination?
37570said the princess,"is not the Prince of Wales satisfied with the former abuses he has poured upon me?
37570said the queen,"what have I to do with PARIS?"
37570said the young prince,"am I not the son of Mr.******?
37570where is thy blush?
37570where then will exist any risk of obtaining a ready concurrence from the House in my marriage?
37570who did do it?"
35529Ah, would n''t they?
35529Ah, your honour,she said,"would you not be giving me something for my poor sister here?
35529Ah-- so it is the big stones you would be after?
35529All right,I agreed; and then, as an afterthought,"How much will you charge?"
35529All the year round?
35529Am I trespassing?
35529And does that make me think any the less of you? 35529 And will ye have coffee or tay, miss?"
35529And would you be comin''all this way just to see the big stones?
35529Are n''t there many riots next day?
35529Are there really some?
35529Are you interested in the butter business?
35529Banshees is it? 35529 Black törn?"
35529Built by the government?
35529But does n''t it grow wild?
35529But how can they live on that?
35529But where do you get enough police?
35529But where hast thou left thy followers?
35529But why is it, then, Ulster is so frightened?
35529But why?
35529But you have seen cowboys?
35529But you were born in Ireland?
35529Ca n''t do it?
35529Can we get lunch?
35529Can you spell it?
35529Can you tell me how to get to the cromlechs?
35529Can you tell me, sir, if this is the train to Derry?
35529Did I understand you to say,he asked,"that the elections all over your country are held on the same day?"
35529Did the Saint let him go?
35529Did they come true?
35529Did you see the underground passages?
35529Do n''t know?
35529Do n''t you know where the hotel is?
35529Do n''t you remember the song about Willy Reilly and his dear cruiskeen lawn?
35529Do you ever see any ghosts?
35529Do you see them marks? 35529 Do you suppose I''d go away now, without kissing it?
35529Enough police?
35529From America?
35529Ghosts? 35529 Give for a king?"
35529Give up smoking?
35529Have you been away long?
35529Have you been to the abbey?
35529Have you ever been there?
35529Have you heard Timothy Sullivan''s''Song from the Backwoods''?
35529Have you people hereabouts?
35529How about this army of Ulster the papers are so full of?
35529How can you prove that?
35529How did you happen to stay in Ireland?
35529How did you know?
35529How do I start?
35529How do we get to it?
35529How do you like living in the old castle?
35529How far is it?
35529How far is it?
35529How is all this to be brought about?
35529How much land would it take to give grass to the cow?
35529How much will you charge an hour?
35529How, I''d like to know? 35529 I suppose ale is still to be obtained at the''Three Jolly Pigeons''?"
35529In what way?
35529Indians? 35529 Is it a car your honour would be wantin''?"
35529Is it ready?
35529Is it so? 35529 Is n''t the room all right?"
35529Is that the counsel of you all to me?
35529Is this it?
35529Is yon one your wife?
35529It is a fine day, is n''t it?
35529It''s up this way, is n''t it?
35529Kiss the Blarney stone?
35529Land purchase, is it?
35529Nor hear any banshees?
35529Nothing like it?
35529Of course you know''To the Dead of Ninety- eight''?
35529On the war- path?
35529Or in the condensed milk business??
35529Or in the condensed milk business??
35529Something to his discredit?
35529Sure, there''s nothing I can do, miss,said the jarvey, who had listened sympathetically;"I ca n''t make the car any longer, now can I?
35529Tell me, miss,he said, at last,"is them your own teeth you''ve got?"
35529That''s not far, is it?
35529That_ is_ Sackville Street, is n''t it?
35529The bogs are very wet this year, are they not?
35529The cromlechs? 35529 The stones are near here, are n''t they?"
35529Then it''s less than two miles?
35529There''s no work in winter, so how can one be payin''wages then?
35529They are, sir; and why should one bother washin''them when they get dirty again right away? 35529 They''re brave lads, are n''t they?"
35529Tricker?
35529Unprofitably gay?
35529Was there a man stopped you?
35529Well, what, for instance?
35529Well, why on earth did n''t you say so?
35529Well,he said, as I sat down mopping my face, for I had covered three miles in half an hour,"did you see the fort?"
35529What about?
35529What are you going to do?
35529What are you going to do?
35529What can we have?
35529What do the labourers do then?
35529What do you suppose is the matter?
35529What do you think of that, anyway, sir?
35529What does cruiskeen lawn mean?
35529What happened to the thief?
35529What is a senator?
35529What is it they''re saying?
35529What is it? 35529 What is that you have in your hand, sir?"
35529What is the fare?
35529What is the fare?
35529What name was it you gave this street, sir?
35529What wages does a labourer make?
35529What would you pay, now?
35529What''s the matter?
35529What,I said;"not married?"
35529Where be you going?
35529Where did you pick up all that patter?
35529Where is it you''d be wantin''to go, sir?
35529Where is the bed?
35529Where would they go? 35529 Where would you be from?"
35529Where_ is_ O''Connell Street?
35529Who the devil are you?
35529Why do n''t they go away?
35529Why do n''t you make three wishes yourself?
35529Why do n''t you take a leaf from Lloyd George''s book? 35529 Why do they stay here?"
35529Why not go up with me now?
35529Why should we Catholics interfere wid them?
35529Why, have you seen them?
35529Why?
35529Will you be wantin''a pilot, sir?
35529Would you be telling me,he gasped,"that your millionaires, your men of vast properties, have no more votes than the poor man?"
35529Would you mind doing it again, so that we can see just how it is done?
35529Would your honour be wantin''a car?
35529You are a Nationalist, I suppose?
35529You do n''t foresee a roseate future, then?
35529You would be from America? 35529 You''re not a native of these parts?"
35529A berry or a fruit?"
35529And where is the beauty that once was thine?
35529Are the Rules as to this book observed?
35529Are they all over seventy?
35529Besides, if everybody owned land, where would we be gettin''labour to work it?
35529But how does it come that any one lives in these hills, where life is such a constant and heartrending struggle?
35529But what can the farmers do?
35529By raisin''taxes?
35529Can not the clargy be Irishmen too?"
35529Can you tell me how to get to them?"
35529Did he give you the key?"
35529Do you know his''Ode to Ireland''?"
35529Do you know the poem?
35529Do you know where it is?"
35529Do you mean to say you have never seen the Sheela- na- gig, nor read that line about Wilo Wisp and Jack the Printer?"
35529Do you see that hill yonder?"
35529Drilling and arming?
35529Every evening Betty would have a colloquy with the maid, which ran something like this:"What will ye be wantin''for breakfast, miss?"
35529For how could such beauty be unprofitable?
35529For whom was it built?
35529From what ragged pocket had it fallen, we wondered?
35529Have you a car?"
35529Have you ever heard of"Silken Thomas,"tenth Earl of Kildare?
35529Have you examined the Religious Instruction Certificate Book?
35529Home Rule will make no difference-- how can it?
35529How do you manage it in America?"
35529How great a tragedy would its loss represent?
35529How many of them died, I wondered, and how had she herself managed to survive the awful years which followed?
35529How many of us, I wonder, would be too proud to beg if we could find no work to do, and our backs were bare and our stomachs empty?
35529How much farther is the hotel?"
35529Is n''t it the same in America?"
35529Is the school_ bona fide_ open to pupils of all denominations?
35529It is still so in Ireland, as Lesson Eight will show: Is it a dog?
35529It was Lady Morgan who celebrated Kate''s charms in the ingenuous verses beginning, Oh, did you not hear of Kate Kearney?
35529My principal objection to this is that it is nonsense: how, for example, if the dog was in the box, could it have been also in the mud?
35529Now how old am I?''
35529O, where are the princes and nobles that sate At the feast in thy halls, and drank the red wine?
35529Oh, wo n''t you come up, come all the way up, Come all the way up to Limerick?
35529Once the Bishop looked grave at your jest, Till this remark set him off wid the rest:"Is it lave gaiety All to the laity?
35529Ruins?
35529Seein''they''re no manner of use and cost a lot of money, who else could have built them?"
35529Sure, have n''t I seen them before this treatin''a small fight at the corner as though it was a revolution?
35529The bones do be workin''up to the surface all the time-- and how can that be helped, I should like to know?
35529The cause of this decay?
35529Was he sad or glad Who knew to carve in such a fashion?
35529Was the fox in a box?
35529We get along very well together, and why should n''t we?
35529We will need strong arms at the helm, and what do we care what their religion may be, if only they''re good men and true?
35529Well then, what is it the Ulster men are afraid of?
35529What did Catholic emancipation mean to me and thousands like me?
35529What do you think of that now?"
35529What do you think of that?"
35529What is a man to do against such ignorance as that?
35529What is man?"
35529What might that be?"
35529What''s that?"
35529What, then, are we to believe?
35529When you ask the man at the station,"Is this the train for So- and- so?"
35529Where, O, Kincora?
35529Wherefore sea- severed, long leagues apart?"
35529Who was he?
35529Why is the north energetic and prosperous, while the south is lazy and poverty- stricken?
35529Why should I spoil his dream?
35529Will you not come in and sit a spell?"
35529Would your honour be trying it, now, if I would get my blueing bag?"
35529You are from America, I''m thinking?"
35529You know Glengarriff?
35529You''re a Protestant, I take it, sir?"
35529centre of my longings, Country of my fathers, home of my heart, Overseas you call me,"Why an exile from me?
6727And how may we account for it?
6727But who was to follow Edward?
6727Was it merely a superb, an unparalleled piece of acting?
6727Was it the heroism of a martyr?
6727What if the death of all his male children had been a Divine Judgment on an unlawful union?
6727What then were the guiding considerations, whether of Ethics or of Expediency?
6727What, then, was the King''s attitude?
6727What, then, was the change which now took place?
6727Where in all history is a tragedy more piteous than that of Mary Tudor?
6727[ Sidenote: Piracy?]
6727[ Sidenote: Pope or King?]
6727[ Sidenote: Whose was the responsibility?]
37571!--such an outrage upon your audience-- how is that to be accounted for?
37571But you mean, of course, to restore them?
37571Could no one tell her majesty the real state of things?
37571How many long years,said Mr. Brougham,"had they not seen, when to be an Englishman on the Continent was a painful, if not a degrading, condition?
37571And did not universal execration COMPEL the commander- in- chief TO RESIGN, in defiance of that contemptible and loathed majority?
37571And what reason was assigned for so unjustifiable a proceeding?
37571And what was the object to be obtained by this war?
37571And whence, let us again inquire, arises this state of affairs?
37571And why is this man endowed with a valuable benefice?
37571Are no interested motives to be traced here?
37571As to the rest of Europe, how has it been ameliorated?--what solitary benefit have the"deliverers"conferred?
37571But had not every Englishman a direct interest in the affairs of government?
37571But how did he employ these rare opportunities?
37571But how did his lordship fulfil these promises?
37571But what return did England make for so much magnanimity?
37571But what will posterity think of a British minister''s violating a treaty for such paltry gratifications?
37571But what, it may be fairly asked, is in reality gained by this procedure?
37571By what right did the British government constitute itself a tribunal to judge and punish, in the last resort, delinquent monarchs?
37571Can the House of Hanover say as much for their succession to the throne of the STUARTS?
37571Could any thing tend more to criminate his lordship than the sudden punishment of the accuser, while in the act of preferring his complaint?
37571Could they, for a moment, have risen from their graves, what would have been their astonishment at such a perversion of the blessings of the press?
37571Could this fund have been better applied than for the use of him for whom it was voted?
37571Did he now, for the first time, utter this description of its character?
37571Did not JUNIUS expose the illegality of this power?
37571Did not the Tories, then, we ask, both create and feed the riots at Bristol, for the purpose of frightening the people from reform?
37571Did they suspect, that you were again willing to rebel or betray?
37571From what code of morality, or from what system of religion, did his lordship borrow such a principle?
37571From whence was this unusual non- attendance upon the monarch to be attributed?
37571Had Wellington been taken,( And there were chances on that day) Would Bonaparte have used his sway, And left him thus forsaken?"
37571How much longer will the people tolerate such"hereditary"privileges?
37571How was it constituted?
37571If money had been wanted to purchase toys for this baby prince, could it not have been supplied from some more creditable source?
37571In the name of an all- merciful Providence, of what materials are military officers composed that they can endure such disgusting spectacles?
37571Is it madness or meanness which clings to thee now?
37571Is not such our present political situation?
37571It has never been disputed(?)
37571It may be asked,"Why did the queen allow herself to be guided so much by this alderman?"
37571It may here be proper to inquire,"Who and what are they that have so long opposed the just rights of the people?"
37571It was, he rejoiced to say, a rare instance of so sacred a place being corrupted to such purposes(?).
37571May we not ask how far the English clergy are removed from Popery?
37571No loveliness in gratitude?
37571On what principle are they disposed of?
37571One of these advocates stated that Mr. O''Meara was discharged for disobeying orders; but of what nature were those orders?
37571Or will it not bind thee the fastest of all The slaves, who now hail their betrayer with hymns?
37571Or would his self- love satisfy the heavily- taxed people, who were compelled to administer to his extravagant demands for finery and baubles?
37571Upon what principle, then, did active hatred continue when both hostility and apprehension had ceased?
37571Was ever common sense so insulted?
37571Was it from motives of Christian charity that he traduced him before a public tribunal?
37571Was it impartial British justice, when the ministers of the king sat as judges, jurors, and accusers?
37571Was it not intended to add fresh insults to injuries already too deep?
37571Was justice ever so outraged?
37571Was not every honourable man in England convinced of their verity?
37571Was not the name of the noble- minded Caroline insultingly excluded from the Liturgy?
37571Was not the sense of duty powerful enough?
37571Was the refusing a list even of the names of the witnesses impartial justice?
37571Was the treating her majesty as guilty before her trial a fair specimen of the beauty of this court?
37571Was there no beauty in the common charities of our nature?
37571Was there no delight in filial affection?
37571We are here naturally led to inquire, who was the_ former_ Bishop of Osnaburgh?
37571Well, then, the Prince of Wales''name, at least, did figure in our Prayer Book, and was he"pure and undefiled?"
37571Were Henry the Eighth, Queen Mary, Charles the Second and his queen, James the Second and his queen, all pure and undefiled?
37571Were all Englishmen punished in the same manner for the offence of brawling and drunkenness, where would the flogging system terminate?
37571Were such people, then, calculated to administer justice?
37571Were the claims of veneration cold?--the warmth of regard frozen?
37571Were the proceedings of the court at all calculated to impress the man''s mind with the true spirit of Christianity?
37571Were they afraid of your partially redeeming your character by silence?
37571Were they resolved, that if you were yet not enough known, some decisive overt act should reduce you below the ministerial level?
37571Were your ministers then ignorant that the spectacle of a great man struggling with adversity is the sublimest of spectacles?
37571What better, in the name of heaven, are they than the rest of human creatures?
37571What claims have such state- pensioners on public confidence?
37571What judgment would a foreigner form of this matter, who might have heard the blessings of our happy administration of justice extolled to the skies?
37571What more brilliant proof could he give of his esteem and his confidence?
37571What proof did Mr. Denman[40: A] give of the mild and forgiving doctrines of Christianity in his severe sentence against this man?
37571What was meant by asking leave of"the rector, or the king''s ministers,"who were at some distance from the abode of sorrow?
37571What was the Duke of York to me, or to my family?
37571What was the tribunal before which her majesty was called?
37571What, also, will posterity think of Lord Castlereagh''s conduct on this occasion, who proposed the disgusting grant to parliament?
37571What, then, are we to think of a British minister, who could violate his most sacred pledges of protection to a man of this exalted description?
37571What, then, it may be asked, is the cause of the present unhappy state of England,--of its political struggles and divisions?
37571Whence, then, arose Lord Castlereagh''s right to treat him as an offender amenable to England?

44860His majesty retired to York, but soon began to ask himself--"What''s this dull town to me?"

44860Sampson, K.C., had nevertheless got as far as"Will your lordship allow us?"
44860The king then exclaimed,"Well, Doctor, is that all you have to say?"
44860There''s some mistake, is there not?

44860he whined,"dinna ye ken that there are times when you mun just throw your preencipal overboard?"
44860rejoined the Scot;"but ken ye not that ye might have bought half the powder, and put the rest of the siller in your pocket?"

53723But always Sir Kay would taunt him with these words spoken to others,"How like you my boy of the kitchen?"

37687And what say you, Corn- flower?
37687And where is your real father and mother?
37687Awful- looking old man,I say,"did ever you hear of the Battle of the Standard?"
37687Been at sea all your life, hain''t you?
37687But, John, you''ve heard of Grace Darling?
37687By everything that''s mysterious,I said,"why have you got your jaws tied up?
37687Can we do it?
37687Did ever you see such a glorious meadow in your life?
37687Did you ever see greener grass,he continued,"or more lovely white clover?
37687Did you never hear or read that a battle was fought near this spot?
37687Do ye mean to tell me,she said,"that you dropped out of the clouds in a thunderstorm with a tin- kettle in your hand?"
37687Gang back a wee yet?
37687Got anything to sell?
37687Got anything to_ give_ away, then?
37687Ha,I think,"from Yorkshire?
37687Hast never heard of Saint Cuthbert?
37687How old are you, my man?
37687How old are you?
37687Inverness?
37687Is he a Liberal?
37687Is he a Salvationist?
37687Is he a Tory?
37687Is it a large village?
37687John,I shout,"is n''t that heavenly music?
37687Let go?
37687Never do what?
37687Now,she said, after we had talked on a variety of topics,"come into the parlour and I shall play and sing to you?"
37687On the whole, John,I say, as I reseat myself among the rugs,"how do you like to be a gipsy?"
37687Shall we drop a tear to her memory, my gentle Jehu?
37687Stay?
37687Stop the''orses, ca n''t yer? 37687 That''s just where it is-- what would be the use of a war- cry if it were n''t startling?
37687The bath all ready? 37687 Then we can have a bucket or two of water, I suppose?"
37687Too much,do you say?
37687What are ye greetin''[ weeping] about, my wee laddie?
37687What does he do?
37687What does he keep?
37687What say you, Pea- blossom?
37687What''s a mosquito,''oman?
37687What?
37687What_ can_ have happened?
37687Where be goin''to sleep yourse''f?
37687Who lives here?
37687Why? 37687 Why?"
37687You have doubtless led a strictly abstemious life, have n''t you?
37687You have led a very temperate life, have n''t you?
37687You''ve got a nut on you?
37687_ Quien sabe_? 37687 ` What''s the krect thing to do, polly?''
37687A milestone?
37687A telegram?
37687About going where he likes, for instance?
37687About pigs?
37687Accommodation?
37687And what shall I say of gowan or mountain- daisy?
37687And who were they after all?
37687Are the good folks of Lyndhurst ghouls?
37687Are we back in the middle ages, I wonder?
37687Are you fond of history?
37687But have they not their rivals in the climbing honeysuckle and in the bright- eyed creeping convolvulus?
37687But is hope quite past, even for these?
37687But she must be very heavy?
37687But then you will think early rising the reverse of a hardship, for did you not turn in at ten o''clock?
37687But what dreadful calamity had happened to my home?
37687But what have we here?
37687But what must the horse himself have thought of those philosophers?
37687But what shall I say about the scenery''twixt Bankfoot and Dunkeld?
37687But which hen was to have it?
37687But would he own it?
37687By the way, who was Jack, I wonder, and what three kings are referred to?
37687Can that be had in a Wanderer caravan?
37687Can this be the ghost of Penn?
37687Can you tell wot the gemman means,''Arry?"
37687Clean?
37687Could the horses do it this time?
37687Did Wallingford not hold out against the Danes also?
37687Did it ever strike the reader that those same great velvety bees are republicans in their way of thinking?
37687Did not two of the greatest philosophers the world ever saw attempt to put their own nag in the shafts once?
37687Did we purchase these flowers?
37687Do n''t you like it, John?
37687Do you care for the picture, reader?
37687Do you long for society?
37687Do you take us for Cheap- Jacks?"
37687Does it smell at all?
37687Does n''t it stir your blood?"
37687Dost think I''d give thee water?
37687Eh, Dick?
37687Ettrick and Teviotdale, Why, my lads, dinna ye march forward in order?
37687Fed with good oats, oftentimes hurt by the whip?
37687Gallant, did I say?
37687Has Twyford the Great then, it may reasonably enough be asked, anything in particular to boast of?
37687Has my city reader noticed it in bloom in May?
37687Hath not a horse feet, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?
37687Have you never heard the legend that he sailed down the Tweed in a huge stone coffin?"
37687Have you seen the golden- tasselled broom waving in the soft spring wind?
37687Here again is my coachman being interviewed by some country bumpkins:--"Who be your master, matie?"
37687How did we come here?
37687I am often asked, Is it not very hot in summer?
37687I had never been to Mark- lane, and who is Hyde?
37687I never tried to pull_ your_ tail off, did I?
37687I said to Brad,"How much, my friend?"
37687I wonder if I am truly getting ill, or old, or something; and if a complete change would do me good?"
37687I wonder what pigs do dream about?
37687I wondered if the Wanderer really was an object of curiosity to the groups who gathered and walked and talked around us?
37687If a man be driving the trap that is meeting her, is it not his duty to give place to her?
37687If a man comes to the back door of your caravan and addresses you thus:"Chuck us a dollop o''stale tommy, guv''nor, will yer?"
37687If touched with the whip, she immediately nibbles round at Corn- flower''s head, as much as to say,"Come on, ca n''t you, you lazy stick?
37687Inland, are there not grand old hills and wild woodlands, lonely straths and glens, and splendid sheets of water?
37687Is He mocking at their calamity?
37687Is it not possible that the mountain firs of our Scottish Highlands would spread also had they room?
37687Is it not said that the wild anemone or wind- flower grew from the tears shed by Venus over the grave of Adonis?
37687Is it not, however, also said that the whole country north of Newcastle properly belongs to Caledonia?
37687Is it the tomb of a saint?
37687Is n''t that dreadful, my dear?
37687Is not,"I continued, parodying Shylock''s speech--"Is not a horse an animal?
37687Is that the remark you make, dear reader?
37687Is the bare idea not calculated to induce a more dreadful nightmare than even a lobster salad?"
37687Is there not, too, the finest tree scenery that exists anywhere in Scotland?
37687Knowest thou this song, John?"
37687Matilda was led away to the stable, the after- steps were let down, and the children said,"Is n''t it dinner- time, pa?"
37687Might not, I asked myself, any one or more of a thousand accidents befall her?
37687Must the Wanderer, indeed, climb that terrible hill?
37687Nay, more, have I not also my West Australian cockatoo to talk to me, to sing with me, and dance when I play?
37687Need I mention Floors Castle, Kelso Abbey, Melrose Abbey, or the abbeys of Jedburgh and romantic Dryburgh?
37687No poetry about a potato field?
37687Not quite liking the accommodation recommended to us by a villager, I called on Mr E--, and coyly-- shall I say"coyly?"
37687O fickle fortune, why this cruel sporting?
37687O, why thus perplex us poor sons of a day?
37687Or can I have been dreaming?
37687Or, later on in the season, the tall and stately foxgloves blooming red amidst the greenery of a fern bank?
37687She may not know her own side of the road, but what does that matter?
37687Sight- seeing?
37687Smeaton?
37687Subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is?"
37687The round- faced landlord was very polite, but when I asked for a photographer,--"A wot, sir?"
37687There is a sharp corner to turn, too, up yonder, and what is beyond?
37687This will make you laugh, and if one should overtake you and go swilling round your ankles, why, what matters it?
37687We must not grumble, must we, my dear?
37687Well, polly, as I were a sayin'', he comes to the stable, and he says to Garge,` Garge,''says he--"But would you believe it, dear dobbin?
37687Were we invited?
37687What are the old horse''s forefeet tied together for, pa?"
37687What beauty, it might be asked, could a lover of nature descry in an old stone fence?
37687What by early hours and moderate meals?
37687What care I that Oko Jumbo has departed, or that there has been a royal visit to Leeds?
37687What charmed me most in this Forest?
37687What does that matter?
37687What else could I do but wave my hat in return?
37687What is it, I wonder?
37687What must it have been one hundred years ago?
37687What though your table be small, the viands plain?
37687What young girl fresh from school can be found who can not drive?
37687What''s the odds so long as you''re happy?
37687When frozen one day last winter, I found her throwing the seeds on top of the ice, and saying,"Poor dear Polly?"
37687Whenever any one now says to me,"There is a terrible hill a few miles on,""Can a cat get up?"
37687Where am I?
37687Where are our tourists?
37687Where on earth, he asks, do these streams come from?
37687Where on earth_ has_ it gone to?"
37687Which of the wild flowers, I now wonder, did I love the best?
37687Who can tell?
37687Who should meet me in London, all unexpectedly as it were, but"mamma"?
37687Who would not be a gipsy?
37687Who, I wonder, drinks all the"fine old beer,"the"sparkling ales,"and the"London stout,"in this town of Porchester?
37687Who_ would_ be a dweller in dusty cities, I wonder, who can enjoy life like this?
37687Why called"Fenny,"I wonder?
37687Why could not the man have said"caravan"?
37687Why, he said in reply, did not I go straight to the Bristol Waggon Company?
37687Will that scale suit you to measure_ your_ health against?
37687Will they return with but a glimmer of light before it is for ever too late?
37687Will ye buy a basket, missus?
37687Would n''t you laugh too, if you had to live for a hundred years?
37687Would ye no obleege us with just one blink at ye?"
37687Would you not accept the latter almost as readily as the former?
37687Yes, all that time, and why not?
37687Yes, you would, especially if she said,--"Have a few flowers, sir?

37687` Do you imagine for a moment that a born lady like me is interested in your Dobbins, and your Garges, and your fat old farmer Frogues?

59423Supposing he made a show of trying to cut the two French ships off-- how would De Grasse take it?
59423The captain from the bridge, glass in hand, watching anxiously the aim of her gunners, would shout from time to time:"What was that, my men?"
59423The doctor, not immediately calling to mind that great day, inquired again,"_ What_ 12th of April?"

49263Do you persuade yourself that I respect you?
49263Is she a Lady or a Person?
49263And another equally sumptuous residence for the more honest Bill Brown, the poacher?
49263And what of the isolated young girl?
49263And, as for Robinson, does he not absent himself from service whenever he is beyond the espionage of the Little Muddleton Road clan?
49263Are these the visions of Utopianism?
49263Are we, then, to despair of a cure?
49263But is he wholly to blame for this?
49263But was she a lady?
49263But what shall be said of that multitude of our countrymen who live to amuse themselves in such primitive fashion?
49263But why should not Pugsley have his monument?
49263Can any wholesome influence come out of the frowsy atmosphere of a villa inhabited by Veneerings?
49263Can you by any human power be dragged out of the slime in which you love to wallow?
49263Could one devise a better way of advertising his Piquant Pickles?
49263Did I not indicate a method of prophylaxis, a scientific, humane, and gradual extinction of the taint?
49263Did not Mrs. Smith set the example in_ ton_, in Little Muddleton Road?
49263Do you mean to say that respectable men from home here would----?
49263Do you not know the unctuous provincial tradesfolk who never attend their local theatres for fear of the Puritans of Little Peddlington?
49263Does she not pay her sisters too high a compliment?
49263Does this hotchpotch of contradiction help you in determining the qualities of a gentleman?
49263Has he not been heard to declare in private that his regular attendance at chapel is a matter of business?
49263Have I not said that"were it not for the inherited virus,"the veneering girls"might have been decent and wholesome women?"
49263Have we not seen it?
49263Have you ever read or heard of a truly noble man or woman who was also respectable?
49263Have you not seen the crowd cower like frightened sheep at the sound of a self- important voice?
49263How can we inveigh against these tired workers for the drowsy occupation of their few leisure hours?
49263How could these women be respectable in such scanty drapery?
49263How do these dismal, over- crowded, smoke- blackened haunts of Respectability impress"the intelligent foreigner?"
49263How long, O Lord, how long?"
49263How many of Pugsley''s women have been forced to supplement their wretched earnings by prostitution?
49263How, then, can we lessen the chances of drawing the wrong card in the great lottery of marriage?
49263I said:"Where is the orderly?

49263Is he not a man and a brother?"
49263Is it a matter for wonder?
49263Is it moral to kill the social affections?
49263Is there no escape from a seemingly invincible fate that restricts the thought and energy of the million to the bare affairs of the shop?
49263Is there no room for Jeames in this mixed assemblage?
49263Is there the least need to dwell upon the contrast of decency that these Curumbas women present to the"respectable English ladies"of Calcutta?
49263Is this the kind of man who will sedulously guard against soiling his hands in dirty commercial enterprises?
49263Must hands be stained with men''s blood ere the rich will bestir themselves to render justice to the poor?
49263Must we wait for this?
49263Supposing it possible for an original mind to pursue the preposterous chimera of respectability, where would such a mind find itself ultimately?
49263The only thing to decide is, which sort?
49263The question is-- Can a man live the higher life, and_ succeed_ in the worldly meaning of prosperity?
49263These attempts to stamp out individuality of character promote social progress?
49263WHAT IS RESPECTABILITY?
49263WHAT IS RESPECTABILITY?
49263Was not Mr. Brown very respectable?
49263Was not Mrs. Robinson distantly related to a branch of the aristocracy?
49263Was the opposition entirely motived by a spirit of scientific scepticism and caution?
49263Was the pensive opium- eater thoroughly overawed or depressed by the Respectability of the classic city?
49263Were there not originally the germs of ideas, imagination, and emotion, in these unfortunate contented souls?
49263What does Villadom read, talk of, and think upon?
49263What happiness, what profit, come out of such masquerading?
49263What is its effect upon the morals and the weal of the order?
49263What were the peculiarities of these ancestors whose idiosyncracies have degenerated into actual brain disease?
49263What will Mrs. Robinson think?"
49263When the majority disagree as to the outward semblance and the inner attributes of"real gentlefolk,"how can we distinguish individuals of the order?
49263Why not?
49263Why not?
49263Why, in the name of reason, am I to flatter and applaud this commercial gamester?
49263Will the Respectables always crucify their social redeemers?
49263Will the prosperous business career of the future be alone compatible with a low standard of thought, and a corrupt canon of commercial morals?
49263Would it not be an act of sheer defamation of character to describe Ben Jonson, Shakspere, Dryden, Fielding, and Burns as"respectable men?"
49263Yet how far?
49263Yet need money- getting always degrade the people?
49263Yet, who to- day but the most degraded peasants of the wild hills believes in witches?
49263is there anything greater under the sun?
49263is there one man in ten in this great sheep- pen who would like to be seen blacking his own boots or sweeping the snow from the front of his house?
49263what did he in a company where externals count for all a man is worth?
49263who has it not cursed and perverted at some time in his life?
8556From which pope?
8556Why do they not go on and demand the kingdom itself?
8556If England was to be ruled by a foreign king, should not that king on historical grounds be a Dane rather than a Norman?
8556John had not remained in inactivity in England all this time, however, without some impatience?
8556Ought A to pay a certain tax?
8556Ought he not to be of the land that had already furnished kings to England?
8556Since when had England, recognized the right of the pope to confirm its sovereigns or to decide cases of disputed succession?
8556The question is usually to be settled by answering another: Have his ancestors before him paid it, or the land which he now holds?
8556Very probably at this time also he was made Earl of Hereford?
9973Hemingburgh concludes by saying that all that they could get from the culprits was the exclamation,''Quid potui ego?''

54884Are you not distressed to see me do this?
54884At least then,continued Mary,"my requests in favour of my servants will be granted?"
54884Did you remark, Bourgoing,said she,"what Lord Kent said in his interview with me?
54884Does this indicate that the minute was considered unnecessary and never presented?
54884How is it possible,returned the Queen gently,"to have such an image in one''s hands without the heart being profoundly touched by it?
54884I am very happy to go from this world; you should rejoice to see me die for such a good quarrel; are you not ashamed to cry? 54884 I do not blame you for this,"said Burleigh;"but if the Spanish army had entered the country, could you have answered for the life of the Queen?
54884If my enemies possess them,said she,"why do they not produce them?
54884Is Nau dead?
54884What favour can I look for when I shall have established my innocence?
54884Why,said she,"are not Nau and Curle examined in my presence?
54884Will you therefore,continued Burleigh rudely,"hear us or not?
54884Can I be responsible for the criminal projects of a few desperate men, which they planned without my knowledge or participation?"
54884Did I not well know that they desired to do as they have done?
54884Have not they now plainly shown their intention?
54884If Babington really confessed such things, why was he put to death without being confronted with me?
54884If I had any secret dealings with him, why did he not declare them in order to save his life?"
54884If Mary had sued for mercy, would Elizabeth have granted it?
54884Is it likely,"continued she,"that I should appeal for assistance to Lord Arundel, whom I knew to be in prison?
54884Is it not an unworthy act to submit to such conduct of such people, the title of a princess, one little accustomed to such procedures and formalities?
54884Is it not notorious that they have always feared that if I lived they would never be in safety regarding their religion?
54884Is that''protection''?"
54884Item, in another letter he advertised her how Sir Edward Stafford(?
54884May it not be also that letters similar to those now produced, may have come to their hands without, however, my seeing them?
54884My children,"continued Mary,"it is now no time to weep; that is useless; what do you now fear?
54884When she was left alone with her sorrowful attendants, the Queen, turning to them, said:"Well, Jane Kennedy, did I not tell you this would happen?
54884Would it not be better for me to risk personal danger than to take the life of a relation?
54884Would not the country have been in danger of falling into the hands of strangers?"
54884Would you wish me to return a jewel which you gave me to you with my last words, or would it please you to receive it sooner?
54884[ Footnote 189: Dingley?]
54884or to Lord Northumberland, who is so young, and whom I do not know?
54884why should this noble house of Howard have suffered so much for me?
51229How so, sweetheart?
51229Nay, Sir,quoth she,"besides all that, what things hath he wrought within this realm to your great slander and dishonour?
51229Why, then, I perceive,quoth the king,"ye are not the Cardinal''s friend?"
51229... Now what shall we say of these rich artisans of London?
51229And in those days what did they when they helped the scholars?
51229And now I would ask a strange question?
51229And will ye know who it is?
51229Are these the signs of fraternal love between you?
51229Are ye not abominable schoolmasters in that ye take so great wages, if ye will not teach?
51229Be these tokens of charity amongst you?
51229But how shall I speak well of them?
51229But now, me thinketh I hear one say unto me, wot you what you say?
51229Came Christ to make the world more blind?
51229For there is reigning in London as much pride, as much covetousness, as much cruelty, as much oppression, as much superstition, as was in Nebo?
51229For what shall I look for among thornes but pricking and scratching?
51229For what would you have them to do?
51229How can we( as Peter commandeth) give a reason for our hope, when we wot not what it is that God hath promised or what to hope?
51229How cometh it that God''s word pertaineth less unto us than unto them?
51229How then hath it happened that we have had so many hundred years so many unpreaching prelates, lording loiterers, and idle ministers?
51229I would fain know who controlleth the devil at home at his parish while he comptrolleth the mint?
51229I would here ask one question?
51229If the Apostles might not leave the office of preaching to be deacons, shall one leave it for minting?
51229If ye would teach, how could ye do it so well and with so great profit as when the lay people have the Scripture before them in their mother tongue?
51229Is it a labour?
51229Is it a work?
51229Is this a meet office for a prieste that hath the cure of Souls?
51229Is this his charge?
51229Is this their duty?
51229Is this their office?
51229Item, how many messes of meat shall be served for my Lord Cardinal and his chamber at the King''s charge; v or vi more or less?
51229Item, to know whether the King''s grace will have any of his sergeant officers to attend upon the emperor, or yeomen for his mouth daily or not?
51229Item, whether the emperor and his nobles shall be served with his own diaper,[12] or else with the king''s?
51229Item, whether there shall be any banquetting, and in what places?
51229No, no, I can not so do: alas, how can the poor souls live in concord when you preachers sow amongst them in your sermons debate and discord?
51229Once yet again Of you I would frayne,[25] Why come ye not to court?
51229Or if they look for light, and you bring them to darkness?
51229Shall I call them proud men of London, malicious men of London, merciless men of London?
51229Shall I now judge you charitable persons doing this?
51229Should we have ministers of the Church to be comptrollers of the mints?
51229To the King''s court?
51229To which court?
51229What among stones, but stumbling?
51229What shall I say of such as cry up and maintain the cheat of pardons and indulgences?
51229What shall I say of them?
51229What( I had almost said) among serpents, but stinging?
51229Wherefore serveth the curate but to teach them the right way?
51229Wherefore were the holidays made but that the people should come and learn?
51229Whether will your Holiness say, that you might do those things that you have done, or that you might not do them?
51229Who is the most diligent bishop and prelate in all England, that passeth all the rest in doing his office?
51229Yea, how cometh it that our Moseses forbid us and command us the contrary, and threat us if we do, and will not that we once speak of God''s word?
51229[ 13] Item, whether the Emperor shall be served with his own silver vessels, or else with the king''s?
51229[ Footnote 64:= ropes?]

9947''What was that?''
9947At the end, when the orb was put into her hand, she said,''What am I to do with it?''
9947Do you ever pray for her?''
9947He on his side could ask,''What am I, that such happiness should he mine?
9947She said,''Were you asleep, dear papa?''
9947Were he to ask me,"What is a man''s most priceless possession?"

57372And what was that, but that our dirty Besse( meaning his duchesse) should come to be Duchesse of Albemarle?"
57372And why not wear them?-- Did not a lady- knight, late chevalier, A brave smart soldier in your eyes appear?
57372Are there not as interesting varieties in such a life?
57372Baggages, do you call smothering a man taking close order?
57372But what was the employment that thus determined for so long a period his daily movements?
57372Did his gaiety extend farther than his own nation?''
57372Do n''t you want to ask me how I liked him?
57372Eh, my liege lord?
57372Have I not seen in one season that man act seven- and- twenty times, and rise each time in excellence, and shall I be silent?
57372Have you no idea who he is?''
57372I asked her the next day how she went through it?
57372Is it not possible that the Duke of Northumberland received Durham House in reward for his discovery there of the illegal mint?
57372Ladies, here''s oppression of the fair sex: for may n''t the most innocent of us smuggle a little, and never know it?
57372Madam; who is the worse for being talked of uncharitably?
57372Some the cause did maintain, That it should there remain, Or where can we go helter- skelter?
57372The chemist, in amazement, said:''And you really meant to offer pecuniary aid to that person, sir?
57372The latter, very agreeably surprised, exclaimed,''But what security am I to give you?''
57372Was ever poor married rogue in such a plight?"
57372What do you mean?
57372What is a friend?

48780In the cross- examination of the father by Mr. Dauncey, he was asked if he had always been a surgeon? 48780 Lord Ellenborough: Is the Appellant in Court?
48780Mr. Burrowes-- the Magistrate: Is it usual, Mr. Brookes, when you receive a subject, to have any conversation with the parties who deliver it? 48780 Nash draws designs; but, honest Master Nash, Tho''you may draw-- who answers with the cash?"
48780The public squares are almost all regularly built; their form is oblong, from whence they take their name(?). 48780 Then, said the Magistrate, what induced you to go to the Tower?
48780_ A._ The Widow Byrne-- who is she? 48780 _ First Gensdarme._ What is the news?"
48780_ Q._ By virtue of your oath, Sir, will you swear you have not been at fifteen? 48780 _ Q._ Did you not rob the poor woman of every article in the house; even her bed- clothes, and the clothes off her back?
48780_ Q._ Do you recollect robbing John Keogh, in the County of Wicklow, and taking every article in his house? 48780 _ Q._ Do you recollect robbing the Widow Byrne in the County of Wicklow?
48780_ Q._ Do you recollect stealing two flitches of bacon from Dovan, the Wexford Carman? 48780 _ Q._ How came you to snatch that article from the keeper?
48780_ Q._ Was it day or night? 48780 _ Q._ Who told you to do this, or who was it put that good thought into your head?
48780_ Q._ Would you swear that you have not been at twenty? 48780 ''And, will you protect me?'' 48780 ''How do you see St. Paul''s, the Tower, the Crown Jewels?'' 48780 ''How do you see Westminster Abbey?'' 48780 ''Pray, what was the matter?'' 48780 ''Well,''says the Doctor,''what would you offer them?'' 48780 ''_ Thirty_ guineas every morning? 48780 (_ Witness and the Auditory laughing immoderately._)_ Q._ Why, you''re a mighty good- humoured fellow?
48780--''Are we married yet?''
48780--''Can you tell me the name of that artery?''
48780--''Do you bleed from the vein, or from the artery?''
48780--''Do you understand the characters they use for ounces, scruples, and drachms?''
48780--''Then were they regular physicians?''
48780--''Then you can not make up their prescriptions from reading them?''
48780--''There is an artery somewhere about the temples; what is the name of that artery?''
48780--''What proportion does an ounce bear to a pound?''
48780--''With a fleam, or with a lancet?''
48780--Judge to witness:''Did you ever make up any medicine by the prescriptions of a physician?''
487801 is,"Are you all charged, Gentlemen?"
48780And what was the general state of the Country at this time?
48780And what was the man of the period like?
48780But a hum of applause, yes, his triumph is full, Yet this hum of applause has betrayed our John Bull,''What hum of applause?
48780But how did England reply to such an act of magnanimity?
48780But, again, we ask, why purchase such a place when there are so many palaces unoccupied?
48780But, since to them your anger reaches, Is it because''tis so well known,_ You_ always love_ to wear the breeches_?"
48780Come, now, tell us how many you have been at?
48780Dauncey:''Where did they take their degrees?''
48780Did I not build you a_ Bridge_?
48780Did I not give you a_ Fête_?
48780Did I not refuse your_ Address_?
48780Did I not sign the_ Corn Bill_?
48780Did I not treat you to a smell of all the nice things at my_ Feast_?
48780Finding it useless farther to intrude, I asked the waiter who and whence he was?
48780Have I not drunk whole Pipes of Wine, for fear it should be wasted?
48780Have I not spent all your Money, because you should not spend it yourself?
48780Have you not got the Income Tax to keep you sober?
48780He is reported to have made a very inflammatory speech, and"at the close he asked them if they would accompany him?
48780How do you go to the play?''
48780In order to decide a match, would it not be practicable to take example by the following?
48780Is_ this_ the_ new Go_--kick a man when he''s down?
48780May be it is big Nell you mean?
48780Mr. Dauncey asked,''Who did you learn it of?''
48780Mr. Leblanc: Your plea is that you are not Guilty, and that you are ready to defend the said plea with your body?
48780She then showed him the room she had prepared for the Grand Duke, and asked him if he thought it would do?
48780Sounds not this well?
48780Then who would think We stood on ruin''s very brink?
48780Tired of our trousers are ye grown?
48780What more striking proof could he give of his esteem and confidence?
48780What was England like at this time?
48780What would the modern_ Patres Conscripti_ of the City say if a Lord Mayor were to appear like unto this?
48780When the foe has_ knockt under_, to tread on him then?
48780Who is this Tom Brown?
48780[?
48780after I have done all I could to get rid of your Money, you still grumble?
48780changed to"''And, will you protect me?"
48780does not that read like a modern Irish Procession to the Reformer''s tree in Hyde Park?
48780my big hero, is this thy renown?
48780panting recline on another than me?"
48780the balm of her lips shall another man taste?
48780the girl of my heart by another embrac''d?
48780touch''d in the twirl by another man''s knee?
48780were they doctors in law, physic, or divinity?''
45454''All away?''
45454''All ready?''
45454''Good heavens, man, what are you doing on board?''
45454''Hallo, capt''n,''he shouted to me in fluent English,[3]''where are you coming from?''
45454''Have you got any more money?''
45454''How much?''
45454''I am the captain of this ship,''was the answer;''are you the captain of the_ Aud_?''
45454''Now then, where''s your captain?''
45454''Then, first of all, would you mind telling me who you are?''
45454''Time, please?''
45454''Well, Battermann,''I said to the signalman, who entered,''what is it?
45454''Well, what is it?''
45454''What about it?''
45454''What in the name of Heaven''s wrong now?''
45454''What, you want to get killed?''
45454''Where are you bound for?''
45454''Where are you bound for?''
45454''Where are you from?''
45454''Where are you from?''
45454''Where have you the money concealed?''
45454''Where is your captain?''
45454''Why?''
45454A SECOND''BARALONG?''
45454After a while I heard the English captain shout,''How am I to get up the side?''
45454Almost ahead, a little on the starboard bow, another English ship was coming up, and to starboard-- yes, what the devil was that?
45454Alter course?
45454As soon as I stopped the ship other signals followed:''What ship is that?''
45454But how and when did he get away?
45454But how to carry it out?
45454But if so, where the deuce were the men who had lit them?
45454But what is that?
45454But what was that?
45454But where was Casement all this time?
45454But where were the Irish?
45454But, which way?
45454But-- what was that to starboard?
45454CHAPTER XXIII A SECOND''BARALONG?''
45454CHAPTER XXIV LAWFUL COMBATANT OR PIRATE?
45454Ca n''t you answer?''
45454Ca n''t you smell anything?''
45454Could there be something behind it?
45454Could these be warnings intended for us?
45454Damn it all, is the fellow going to escort us in to the Faroes?
45454Did that mean rocks?
45454Did the English know about our coming?
45454Did they really not find anything curious in the idea that a ship of our type should be coming straight from the North Pole?
45454Did they want to lull us into a false security?
45454Did they want to lure us into a trap?
45454Did this mean that we were near the underground passage?
45454English?
45454Had I been lodged here by way of reprisal or as a protection against further attacks?
45454Had he really seen us yet, or not?
45454Had the chauffeur led me into a trap?
45454Had the revolution broken out already?
45454Had they noticed something?
45454He stared and stared between my legs at the locker, so I remarked quite casually,''Perhaps you would rather have a little whisky?''
45454If so, what was to happen?
45454In order to forestall him, I shouted,''Shall I let down a ladder for your prize crew?''
45454In order to put an end to the business I now signalled,''May I proceed?''
45454Is everything at once in league against us?
45454LAWFUL COMBATANT OR PIRATE?
45454Moreover, to ascertain what the_ Bluebell_ intended with us I now signalled,''Where are we to anchor?''
45454My plan for the next day was complete, and I could now turn to the further questions, how should I get away again, and what should I do afterwards?
45454Nevertheless, he had another try, shouting at me through the megaphone in a rasping tone,''Where are you from?
45454Nothing whatever to attract our interest-- Stay, what was that?
45454Now, what did this mean?
45454Or were they afraid that we, with our two miserable lifeboats, were trying to ram and sink their great cruiser?
45454Passenger liner or auxiliary cruiser?
45454Perhaps it was a new dodge of the English to lull us into security so that they should catch us the more easily?
45454Perhaps it was one of the men who had just been speaking to the sentry?
45454Shall we get through unobserved?
45454Shall we succeed?...
45454Spindler?''
45454Surely it must be the pilot cutter already on the look- out for us?
45454Surely not another of them?''
45454Their first question on getting in was:''Are you absentees?''
45454Then I held out the water- bottle and asked,''How much?''
45454There was quite a long pause before I heard him say to the mate,''Are all your Norwegian captains such bounders?''
45454Turn back?
45454Was he afraid that the ladder would not carry his weight, or did he think the descent would be too unpleasant?
45454Was he already in Ireland, and perhaps already arrested, or was he still on a submarine which had not yet arrived?
45454Was it an alarm signal?
45454Was it possible?
45454Was not there a man standing on the pier?
45454Was the Britisher keeping some big surprise up his sleeve, or did he really take us for what we pretended to be?
45454We followed the proceedings very attentively-- and what do you think the English fished out?
45454We heard von Spiegel say,''Did you ever see anything so silly?''
45454Well, but, if we stay, how long will they let us lie here?
45454Were these men devils incarnate?
45454Were we already?...
45454Were we being followed already?
45454Were we really to have such luck?
45454What better could I have wished?
45454What could be the explanation?
45454What could that be?
45454What have you to say to that?''
45454What if the Irish had struck their blow prematurely and now the west coast too had been placed under martial law?
45454What the devil do they want?''
45454What was I to do?
45454What were we to do?
45454What would happen, then, if an Englishman suddenly jumped out of the fog upon us?
45454What''s the meaning of this confounded drumming in the middle of the night?''
45454When I entered the cell my first thought was,''How am I to get out of this?''
45454When the usual questions,''Where was I from?''
45454Where are you from?''
45454Where did these rails lead to?
45454Where on earth could the flying- ground be?
45454Where on earth was Roger Casement then?
45454Who could have foreseen it?
45454Who could it be?
45454Who could tell but that one of these stones covered the entrance to the tunnel?
45454Who could tell but that they were posted there for our benefit?
45454Why did the English never ask us, as they were in duty bound to do, where we were from and where we were bound for?
45454Why did they snuff round us on all sides as one dog does to another?
45454Why should we not be gay?
45454You are Lieutenant Spindler, and your friend is Winkelmann from Donington Hall, are n''t you?''
45454and''Where was I bound for?''
45454or German?
45454what is one to make of such a series?
34812And he with it?
34812And how long is it since we met?
34812And practising? 34812 And which do you speak best, or like best?"
34812Apropos?
34812Are we to think that friction is the best result?
34812At last?
34812But in eating and drinking? 34812 But, M. le Général, the election?"
34812Can you drop the work and come with me?
34812D''ye call him great?
34812D''ye think I''d preach the Gospel for money? 34812 Dear, dear, who has done this thing?"
34812Did you ever have another Meredith day?
34812Do n''t you think it depressing to listen to Carnegie''s ca nt about his intention to die poor?
34812Do they say that of me? 34812 Do what?
34812Does not the greater include the less?
34812Hand on heart?
34812Has he been here?
34812Has poor old Ireland another grievance?
34812How are you? 34812 How can a man have an attitude toward a continent?
34812How can that be?
34812How do men get bored?
34812How do you get into personal touch with your college students?
34812How far can we transmit electricity for power and lighting purposes?
34812I am to wear them for that priest, eh?
34812I could n''t resist that, could I?
34812I say,said Whistler to me,"are you stewarding?
34812If they forbid him, why should they compel me?
34812Is he trying to elude me? 34812 Is this my meeting or yours?"
34812Madame,said he,"may I ask a question?"
34812Making yourself at home here, are n''t you?
34812Oh, are you a journalist?
34812Shall I put in this, or omit that? 34812 Shall we say the same thing of theology?
34812Some of these should be included, do n''t you think so? 34812 Suppose he should n''t defend himself?"
34812Suppose you work with a night shift? 34812 Surprising, is n''t it?"
34812Terms all right?
34812That was the discovery?
34812The defect of specialised training, eh?
34812Then why not talk of him?
34812Was he ever here? 34812 Well, what of it?
34812Well?
34812What else could he do? 34812 What have I done?"
34812What is the history of your Society?
34812What would you say of me?
34812What''s that?
34812What?
34812Where have you come from now?
34812Where''s our friend----? 34812 Where,"replied Whistler,"where should an honest Londoner go at this hour but home to dine?
34812Who is O''Shea?
34812Who''s gone?
34812Why America?
34812Why not, then, for Ireland?
34812Why''enemy''?
34812Will he come in his altar robes and stole?
34812Will it be all right if I stand here? 34812 Yes, but, Mr. Gladstone, if the opponent_ does n''t_ fight fairly?"
34812Yes, but-- will he do? 34812 Yes,"said he,"and you are the writer of that article?"
34812You do n''t agree with your old friend about that policy?
34812Your husband: does he share these views?
34812''After all,''said the prince,''why should you stay in London when the whole world is only too glad to make pilgrimages to Craig- y- Nos?''
34812''Where''d you get''em, Burns?''
34812A million a year pouring through the steerages?
34812Alarmed I asked,''What is the matter?''

34812And if he were so, why?
34812And if the Ulster problem presents such"vast difficulties", what becomes of the famous panacea-- Self- Determination?
34812And is the argument for majority rule, based, as it is usually, upon the majority in Ireland, more valid?
34812And then immediately, and with a seraph''s smile,"May I pass you a wing?"
34812And then it was: how does he escape from carrying his mannerisms into private life?
34812And then the welter of immigrations on top of these?
34812And who, in those days, would buy sculpture from an"artist unknown"?
34812And why should n''t they be?
34812And, being in London, why not write about London?
34812And, though the ideals of Ulster are not the ideals of the rest of Ireland, must Ulster be punished for her ideals?

34812At any rate he would have been the prince of_ chefs_ as he was"the prince of journalists", or was it the king the public called him?
34812Before adopting a policy he would ask himself,"Is this right?"

34812But I do n''t know what to do, do you?
34812But has the fashion changed in God?
34812But then, why had not Parnell sent word or left word, making another appointment?
34812But what can be done?
34812But what is your favourite, if you have a favourite among them?"

34812For how could Kelvin, who was always peering into the future, be afraid of new things?

34812Heavens!--How many years ago?

34812Is it so evanescent?
34812Is it strange then that we stayed for dinner, having already taken luncheon, tea, and a stroll with the magician of Box Hill?
34812Is that the way you keep the run of the news?"
34812Is there anything to eat?"
34812It flew there through the week of my visit, for was I not an ambassador from the American Public to the Queen of Song?
34812It''s all stew, is n''t it?
34812John Burns, are you under any delusions about popularity?
34812Journalism a''profession'', eh?

34812One day when, like Rosalind, he was in"a coming- on disposition", I asked,"What is your real attitude towards America?"
34812Or Kemble''s name?
34812Or are we believing, according to habit, merely what we have been told?
34812Or had they reversed the parts?
34812Rimmel''s perfumery warehouse stood where the Savoy is now, and that sordid adventurer Hobbs( or was it Jabez Balfour?)
34812Tell me-- without looking him up in a Book of Reference-- who was Plunket?
34812That anxiety vanished as the editor asked:"Are you at liberty to do any more work of that kind, or of any special kind, for us?"

34812What do you think of your discovery?
34812What has all this to do with Henry Irving?

34812What reason is there for assuming that Byron''s will live longer than that?
34812What was the outstanding achievement of his life, the thing, above all, by which posterity will remember him?
34812What was the spell he cast upon his hearers?
34812What''s that?"

34812When had those five words, or any five, unloosed{ 150} such clamour?
34812When since?
34812When the Prince and Princess of Wales learned that I was too ill to accept their gracious invitation, they-- well, what do you suppose they did next?"

34812Who were the leaders of the House of Commons?
34812Whoever went among''em before those days with any other purpose than to get the best of''em?"

34812Why had n''t he, I wondered, taken the outside stairs that led from Villiers Street into the station?
34812Why should n''t they be?
34812Why should we expect Britain to permit the secession of Ireland?
34812Will the gap ever be filled again?
34812Will ye ring the bell?
34812Wo n''t the panacea work in Ulster''s case?
34812Wo n''t you find out how he would receive a proposal, and advise us how best to make an approach?"
34812Would I advise?
34812Would I preach the splendid possibilities in man, to sink to the beasts which perish, or to rise to heaven itself?
34812Would M. le Général talk with me a little while the artist drew?
34812Would not anybody say that the Methodist mountain in Westminster is frozen pudding?
34812Would we smoke?
34812Would{ 53} any one of the three ever write of this scene in England''s history, I wondered?

34812{ 180}"You think so?"
34812{ 260} CHAPTER XVII"LE BRAV''GÉNÉRAL"Who_ was_ Boulanger?
6671Strange to see how they hold up their hands crying, What shall we do? 6671 To whom,"he asked again,"was the money to be paid?"
6671But Clarendon tells us that, strangely enough, the only question was, Who would give the highest price?
6671But do they leave us to seek for new grounds for Clarendon''s approaching fall?
6671But, beyond that, what shape was the Restoration to take in Scotland?
6671Can England point to one who at once filled a larger part in her history, and left a more enduring monument in the annals of her literature?
6671Had the Chancellor, asked the Duke, ever proposed to govern by an army?
6671How did matters really stand between Charles and his people?
6671How far was it possible, consistently with the claims of justice and the paramount supremacy of law?
6671How was it possible he could be such a sot?"
6671If Evelyn''s ghost still haunts the scene, what are its reflections now?]
6671Might not, at least, only parts of it be revived, to be mingled with more edifying forms of extempore prayer?
6671Nay, more, how could he trust that he would not be captured at the first attempt to escape?
6671Or was Presbytery to assume its former domination, and to dictate to the sovereign the terms on which he was to be permitted to reign?
6671Says my Lord Treasurer,''Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys?
6671The first answer of Clarendon in reply to this not very palatable speech was to ask whom the King proposed to make Treasurer in Southampton''s place?
6671The question was, To what did Charles''s Declaration at Breda pledge him?
6671This is all true, you say; but what would you have me to do?
6671Were all genuine Royalists to have a right to claim what was once their property?
6671Were the older cavaliers to be uppermost, and with them was Episcopacy to be restored?
6671What is become of that fool?
6671What was to be the texture of the restored Church, and how far could a compromise be reached between the Church and the Nonconformists?
6671Why will not people lend their money?
6671Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver?''"
6671Would Monk support them in this contest?
6469Did you kiss her hand?
6469Stay,she said abruptly, but not unkindly;"who are you?
6469Who is that?
6469''Well, what did you think of her?''
6469Ah, must it always be so?
6469Ah, why_ green_, O Queen?
6469Albemarle adds that he, boy- like, taunted her with her culinary failure, saying:"_ You_ would make a pretty Queen, would n''t you?"
6469But what does it matter to the dead, how many"deadly enemies"are made?
6469Does His Royal Highness ever propose such a tour in Ireland?
6469How is it, your Royal Highness?
6469I wonder if he continued to say that all his mutilated life?
6469I wonder if her Serene Highness kept fond motherly records of the babyhood and childhood of the Queen?
6469It is true, he did not come very heroically by his imperial crown-- but when crowns are lying about loose, who can blame a man for helping himself?
6469Magistrate:"Do you mean to say you have worn but one shirt all the time?"
6469Magistrate:"You are a sweep, are you?"
6469On the Queen saying to him,"I wonder if my good people of London are as glad to see me as I am to see them?"
6469On the next visit, he was introduced to the Prince of Wales, whom he addressed with a startling,"How are you, Prince?"
6469Poet?
6469Poor dear Puss wished much to go with us and often said,''Why am I not going to Germany?''

6469She approached the supposed workman and, said:"Pray can you tell me when the new carpet will be put down in the Privy Council Chamber?"
6469She shrank from the dreadful task, and with tears in her eyes, asked:"Have you nothing to say in behalf of this man?"
6469The incautious, but ever- curious Princess, turning her head, asked,"What''s slape?"
6469Trials we must have; but what are they if we are together?"
6469What were the perils of Waterloo to this daring, dizzying journey?
6469Where now, we sadly ask, is the Ireland of Tom Moore, Father Prout, Lover and Lever?
6469Why should the Queen not weep over such a"massacre of the innocents,"like any other good, sympathetic, motherly woman?
6469have any of the grown- up Royal Highnesses ever known the comfort and fun in their grand palaces that they had in the merry old Swiss cottage days?
47123Are all the women in England as beautiful as you are?
47123Bailiffs, eh? 47123 But was there ever such stuff as a great part of Shakespeare?"

47123During his progress through the streets with his guests the regent was incessantly hissed, and the mob called out,"Where''s your wife?"
47123He drew his sword and tried to defend himself, but what chance had one man against four well- armed ones?
47123He had only one question to ask about his son''s wife:"Is she good- humored?"
47123His pretty limping gait?"
47123How the King of England would boast?
47123I heard it, however, again, and the queen called out:''What is that?''
47123I said,''Sir, had you not better have a glass of water?''
47123I turned to Victoria, who was seated on my right, and asked her,''Did you hear that?''
47123Is he Regent of the sea?
47123Is he unwell?
47123Is it madness or meanness that clings to thee now?
47123Is there not sad stuff?
47123Moore?"
47123Name or title, what was he?
47123Now, if I desire{ 244}Mr.--------to take you into the stable again, do you think I may trust you?''

47123Once this pair of adventurers were very anxious to entertain the Hanoverian minister; but how could they do so when they had no money?

47123The king said to me,''Very well; then_ you_ will have to pay for the setting?''
47123The new administration was called the"Who?
47123The prince looked at him for a moment or two, and then said:''Tom, Tom, what have you been doing?
47123The princess was speaking on this subject, and then said: Was there ever anything so unaccountable as the temper of papa?
47123The question was, whether or no the war was to be continued, whether or no Lord Palmerston was to resign?
47123The regent will hear it?
47123The story got abroad, and the familiar name of the"Who?

47123What would she not have given to gaze upon her boy and press him to her heart?
47123What''s o''clock?"
47123What''s the matter?"
47123What, then, could have induced her to take the steps to which we have alluded,--that of entering the queen''s service?
47123What?
47123What?
47123When the officer of the stable appeared, his royal highness inquired,''Where is Tom Cross?

7948Hout man,replied the other,"are ye in the heart o''Glasgow, and speer the name of it?"
7948I suppose, then,said I,"you recollect something of Lord Byron, when he used to visit here?"
7948The third time, after a still longer pause, The shadow pass''d away-- but where? 7948 And did he see this? 7948 And have I not cause for gloomy reflections? 7948 And pray who is the Little White Lady?

45130My dear Mr Bradlaugh,Can you?
45130Outlaw or citizen?
45130Where did you walk during that time? 45130 Who will buy our bishopric?"

45130He asked,"But why?"
45130Hence, according to the usual procedure, Mr Digby Seymour began:"You are the proprietor of the_ National Reformer_, I think?"
45130How dared she ask such a question?"

45130Is the doctrine of Original Sin, as taught in the Bible, theoretically unjust and practically pernicious?
45130Is the doctrine of personal existence after death, and of eternal happiness or misery for mankind, fraught with error and injurious to humanity?"
45130It may be asked, but what was the outcome of all these meetings, what was their practical value?
45130It may well be asked, What has become of all this Republican fervour?
45130It was cruel and cowardly to kill the hostages, but was it for the Versailles troops to reproach the Commune with that?
45130It was originally intended to hold a set debate upon the subject"Has Man a Soul?"
45130J. H. Rutherford, and was held in Liverpool in October 1860; another upon"What does the Bible teach about God?"
45130Je lis quelque fois vos discours-- vous traversez une crise-- quel en sera le résultat?
45130May I ask if you think Christianity has a ludicrous aspect?
45130More Christian?
45130Mr Bradlaugh had scarcely commenced to speak when a Royton Police Sergeant called roughly to him to come down:-- ICONOCLAST:"Why?"
45130Mr Bradlaugh pointed out that the Temperance advocates used the Park; why should not he?
45130Mr Prentice:"Do you believe in a future state of rewards and punishments?"
45130Mr S.: At all events, under your eloquent handling, I believe Christianity has been made to assume ridiculous aspects?
45130Mr S.: Do you know a work called"The Ludicrous Aspects of Christianity"?
45130Mr S.: I think you hold strong opinions on political subjects as well as on religion?
45130Mr S.: Oh, you state that, do you?
45130Mr S.: Then you think that Christianity has a ludicrous aspect?
45130Mr Truelove, however, suggested that it should be called''Tyrannicide: is it Justifiable?''
45130Mr. S.: Without putting it unfairly, you hold extreme opinions?
45130My father asked,"What wages?"

45130The JUDGE: Do you believe in a state of future rewards and punishments?
45130The subject for the discussion, which was held in the Temperance Hall, was"Is the Bible a divine revelation?"
45130The subject for the evening address was,"Were Adam and Eve our first parents?"
45130The_ Standard_ on the 11th of March reprinted from it the article,"Who are the Leaguers?"
45130To many Mr Bradlaugh was known only by fame, and if a fresh person came into the hall the question,"Is that he?"
45130To seek a situation seemed useless: what was to be done?
45130To try the actual value of the argument,"he said,"it is not unfair to ask, Did a Theist ever steal?
45130To whom should he turn for help and sympathy if not to those for whose opinions he was now suffering?
45130WHICH AM I?
45130What am I to do?

62633Are you aware whether he had any connection with the Fenian conspiracy?

62633Did you hear Geary say anything about what was to be done to the commanders when the signal for a rising was given?
62633Did you make any communication to Sub- Inspector Hamilton as to how your being in the barracks could be proved?
62633Little was said, but occasionally one of the rescued men would ask"Captain, do you think we will float through the night?"
62633Might not the conspirators have failed in carrying out the land end of the plot?

62633_ The President._ Have you any application to make on behalf of the prisoner?
8090Am I then so changed?

46648But who_ is_ dead?

46648What old man? 46648 Whose piece of bread and butter is that?"
46648Why,said he,"what is all this about?
46648Will you believe it, sir? 46648 You have not the teeth now?"
46648You said something about knowing who it was whose grave you had disturbed?
46648You want an elderly man, my lord?
46648_ Sir Chas._ But you are not the forest, and why the devil do you groan for it? 46648 _ Sir Chas._ What day of the month was it yesterday, when I left town?

46648He sent his medicines, but how could he be sure that they were taken, or taken regularly?
46648How do they manage it?
46648How was it, and how were similar little properties acquired?
46648I hope you mean to stay on the spot for some time, Sir Charles?
46648I went back to Marianne and said,"Now, tell me why you will go on living in this ruin?"

46648Now, Warner, under these circumstances, how is it possible for me to reside upon my estate?
46648Now, what is this droll little article of furniture?
46648Once, indeed, an old minstrel did say to me,"Did y''ever hear, sir,''The Lament of the Poor Man?''"
46648One day the housemaid told the mistress, with a laugh,"Please, ma''am, what do you think?
46648One day the rector said to him:"I want to have my school treat next Thursday-- should rain fall, may I take the children into the old hall?"
46648Richard?"
46648Shall I do it, or run up to town, go to the opera, eat, drink, and enjoy myself, and spend the money on myself?"
46648Tell me, now, am I not right?"
46648The ordinary farmer is not a reader-- how can he be, when he is out of doors all day, and up in the morning before daybreak?
46648The seat lifted-- for what think you?
46648Then I added,"What in the name of Wonder makes you think so?"
46648Then the rector put his head through the window, and said,"Will you?
46648This was not very musical; but what else could be done, when the power to read print was not present in the congregation?

46648When he issued from the tower, I called to him:"Joe, who is dead?"
46648Where is the choir to be put?

46648Which makes the best man in the end?
46648Who among us who are getting old do not recall the peculiar curranty savour of the ancient dining- room?
46648Who does not remember old Isaac Walton and his merry ballad- singing dairymaid?
46648Who pays for the coals?
46648Who pays for the electric light?
46648Why did you not retain them?"
46648Why is this?
46648Why is this?
46648Why not have the stem telescopic?
46648Why should the ceiling alone be left in hideous baldness, in fact, absolutely plain?
46648Why then should the ceilings of our rooms be blank surfaces?
46648Wot do that mean but that he''s sent by the bishop to minister to us and do jist as us likes?"
46648Would not the same have been the case had our squires and parsons continued to frequent the village inn?
46648Would not their presence have acted as a check on over much drinking?
46648Would you care to go down and see it?

59754Did you excommunicate the King at the Torwood, or were you there at the time?
59754Do you know from whom it comes?
59754He served you rightly,said Cameron, in the same language;"why did you skirmish so far in front?"
59754How comes it, sir,said he, with severity,"that you did not deliver this letter to me sooner?"
59754How long since?
59754How so?
59754How used you to pray among them?
59754In God''s name, what is the matter Mor''ar?
59754Mr. Blackadder,said he,"of what family are you-- the House of Tulliallan?"
59754Sir,replied the duke,"do you know to whom you are speaking?"
59754Sire,urged Macdonald,"are you ignorant that a provisional government has been established?"
59754Think you,asked the Emperor,"it will join with me in a movement upon Paris?"
59754Well, Duke of Tarentum,said the former, before the marshal left Fontainebleau,"do you think a regency is the only thing possible?"
59754What,exclaimed the general,"did you also send_ me_ to hell, sir?"
59754Where?
59754As soon as he presented himself before Napoleon--"Well, marshal,"said he,"how do things go?"
59754Did She Love Him?
59754Do you wish the ninety- second to return your fire?"
59754Do you_ approve_ of it?"
59754Had they been her enemies, would their ambassador have been at this very time in her city of Vienna?
59754He raised the window of the room; but the wall of the tower was too high for escape, and he cried aloud--"Will none here assist me?
59754How is your division disposed?"
59754I replied,''_ Most decidedly a republic._''He asked again,''Are you sure?''
59754On the way Cameron asked if the enemy had been defeated?

2447''Is not this,''he concluded,''what the godly man, the true hero, himself would wish to be done?''
2447''Oh, is that all?

2447A desirable young man?
2447A few of the younger doctors struggled valiantly, but what could they do?
2447After all, what could he do?
2447After all, where was he?
2447After one of these occasions, on returning to the Oratory, Cardinal Newman said,''What do you think Cardinal Manning did to me?
2447An influence?
2447And did it not demand the same reverence from us as the Scriptures, and for exactly the same reason-- BECAUSE IT WAS HIS WORD?
2447And for what?
2447And if you are as now even to the end of life, will it suffice you?...
2447And in the hospital what did they find?
2447And indeed, was it not as a ministering angel, a gentle''lady with a lamp'', that she actually impressed the minds of her contemporaries?
2447And the proofs of revelation, and even of the existence of God?
2447And then, had he not been able to set afoot a Crusade of Prayer throughout Catholic Europe for the conversion of England?
2447And then, had not Father Newman''s orthodoxy been impugned?
2447And then-- what is to follow this life?
2447And was it not clear to all men that this pretender was not a tenth of that age?
2447And was that fair?
2447And when the fatal paragraph was read in Rome, might it not actually lead to the offer of the Cardinalate being finally withheld?
2447And who knows what was passing in the obscure depths of that terrifying spirit?
2447And why should not his dream come true?
2447And would not the logical result be a condition of universal doubt?
2447And yet-- why was it?
2447And, even in peace and at home, what was the sanitary condition of the Army?
2447And, if an English expedition went to the Sudan, was it conceivable that it would leave the Mahdi as it found him?
2447And, if not, what steps were they to take?
2447And, in either case, what becomes of Papal Infallibility?
2447And, with Khartoum once cut off from communication with Egypt, what might not happen?
2447Assuredly, she would not be behindhand in doing her duty; but unto what state of life HAD it pleased God to call her?
2447At his appearance, had the Euphrates dried up and revealed a hill of gold?
2447Being what I am, ought I not therefore to decline it--( 1) as humiliation;( 2) as revenge on myself for Lincoln''s Inn;( 3) as a testimony?
2447Brandy?
2447But how was he to achieve his end?
2447But man is more various than nature; was Mr. Gladstone, perhaps, a chimera of the spirit?
2447But nothing broke the immovability of that hard horizon; and, indeed, how was it possible that help should come to him now?
2447But the centre of the labyrinth?
2447But then, could he sit by and witness a horrible catastrophe, without lifting a hand?
2447But then, those vistas, where were they leading?
2447But then, what did that matter?
2447But was that in truth, his only motive?
2447But what else could he do?
2447But what was the position of the Unitarians?
2447But what were rumours?
2447But who could tell whether all these were not impostors?
2447But would an English general ever have the opportunity of asking him to dinner in Khartoum?
2447But, after all, what is illness, when there is a War Office to be reorganised?
2447But, if something came to him--?
2447But, when Sir Evelyn Baring actually arrived-- in whatever condition-- what would happen?
2447By bringing them into close and friendly contact with civilised men, and even, perhaps, with civilised women?
2447By introducing into the life of his school all that he could of the humane, enlightened, and progressive elements in the life of the community?
2447Can it be that he has, or has had, some great trouble in his life, and that he fights recklessly to forget it, or that Death has no terrors for him?''
2447Compared with such an object, what were the claims of personal affection and domestic peace?
2447Could Dr. Pusey see his way to releasing him from the vow?
2447Could I have said more in all the words of the world?''
2447Could a state of mind, in fact, be revealed with more absolute transparency?
2447Could he be of any use?
2447Could it be--?
2447Could it have been that the time allotted to it was insufficient?
2447Could it not then at least be said of him with certainty that his was a complex character?
2447Did he not wish in reality, by lingering in Khartoum, to force the hand of the Government?
2447Did his very essence lie in the confusion of incompatibles?
2447Did it not imply that he had lightly declined a proposal for which in reality he was deeply thankful?
2447Did not Sir Evelyn Baring, too, have the mystic feeling?
2447Did not the Fathers refer to the tradition of the Church as to something independent of the written word, and sufficient to refute heresy, even alone?
2447Did the words bear no meaning to the mystic of Gravesend?
2447Do you suppose that we should not look after you?''
2447Does she not care for the souls of all around her, steeped and stifled in Protestantism?
2447Eh what?
2447For this he was very properly chastised; but, of what use was chastisement?
2447Had a dominating character imposed itself upon a hostile environment?
2447Had any of it been worthwhile?
2447Had contradiction and difference ceased upon the earth?
2447Had he not a mysterious consolation which outweighed every grief?
2447Had he not been heard to express opinions of most doubtful propriety upon the question of the Temporal Power?
2447Had it, perhaps, a place in its heart for such as Manning-- a soft place, one might almost say?
2447Had not even she been an unprofitable servant?
2447He himself had said so, and who would disbelieve the holy man?
2447He made advances through a common friend; what had he done, he asked, to offend Dr. Newman?
2447He was a Christian hero, was n''t he?
2447His twenty- second strange thought was as follows:''How do I know where I may be two years hence?
2447His very essence?
2447How could an infant in arms be said to be in a state of faith and repentance?
2447How could he desert his people?
2447How could he go away?
2447How could he have forgotten that?
2447How could he have guessed that one day he would come to number that loss among''God''s special mercies?
2447How could she rest while these things were as they were, while, if the like necessity were to arise again, the like results would follow?
2447How had it happened that this piece of patchwork had become the receptacle for the august and infinite mysteries of the Christian Faith?
2447How had this come about?
2447How is he now?"''
2447How is it possible that anyone can have done this?''
2447How many who cared at all for the sick, or had done anything for their relief?
2447How much did he, as loyal a son of the Church and the Holy See as ever was, what did he suffer because Dr. Cullen was against him?
2447How soon might not the long- predestined hour strike, when the twelfth Imam, the guide, the Mahdi, would reveal himself to the world?''
2447How was it to be determined, for instance, which particular Papal decisions did in fact come within the scope of the definition?
2447How, then, are we to explain the Government''s action?
2447How, therefore, could its original sin be washed away by baptism?
2447If it was true-- and he believed it was true-- that General Gordon''s line of retreat was open, why did not General Gordon use it?
2447If it was, were not the Reformers of the sixteenth century renegades?
2447If that were to happen, how could the English Government avoid the necessity of sending an expedition to rescue him?
2447If the call were to come to him to take his talent out of the napkin, how could he refuse?
2447If the landscapes of Italy only served to remind him of it, how could he forget it among the boys at Rugby School?
2447If the text of Scripture was to be submitted to the searchings of human reason, how could the question of its inspiration escape the same tribunal?
2447If they were, did it not follow that the power of administering the Holy Eucharist was the attribute of a sacred order founded by Christ Himself?
2447In the face of such enormities what could Keble do?
2447In the ordinary course of things, how could such a paragraph have been inserted without his authority?
2447Is there indeed no radical and essential distinction between supremacy and infallibility?
2447It might be''a trial'', or again it might be a''leading''; how was he to judge?
2447It was only too true; what WERE the prospects of a supernumerary clerk in the Colonial Office?
2447It was very odd-- what could be the matter with dear Flo?
2447Let them look at her lying there pale and breathless on the couch; could it be said that she spared herself?
2447Let''s have a good breakfast-- a little b. and s. Do you feel up to it?''
2447Madness?
2447Men think giving dinners is conferring a favour on you... Why not give dinners to those who need them?''
2447Might it not be his plain duty to take?
2447Might it not be the will of God?
2447Might it not come as an offence, as a scandal even, to those unacquainted with the niceties of Catholic dogma?
2447Might not the twelfth Imam be still waiting, in mystical concealment, ready to emerge, at any moment, at the bidding of God?
2447Mr. Gladstone agreed with him; but there was One higher than Mr. Gladstone, and did He agree?
2447My dear father, how can you be so foolish?''
2447Now, supposing that General Gordon, in response to a popular agitation in the Press, were sent to Khartoum, what would follow?
2447Now, when her opportunity had come at last; now, when the iron was hot, and it was time to strike?
2447Only one question remained to be answered-- would anything, after all, be done?
2447Or precisely WHEN the Roman Pontiff was speaking ex cathedra?
2447Or was it a cause of that feeling, rather than an effect?
2447Or was it because he was not important enough?
2447Or was it his valiant disregard of common custom and those conventional reserves and poor punctilios which are wo nt to hem about the great?
2447Or was it something untameable in his glances and in his gestures?
2447Or was it, perhaps, the mysterious glamour lingering about him, of the antique organisation of Rome?
2447Or was the nineteenth century, after all, not so hostile?
2447Or were they not?
2447Or, on the other hand, was it he who had been supple and yielding?
2447Ought they to be so?''
2447Perhaps even he intended to go off one of these days, too?
2447Perhaps, even beyond those limits; why not?
2447Rum?
2447Send Zobeir?
2447She did well to be angry; she was deserted in her hour of need; and after all, could she be sure that even the male sex was so impeccable?
2447She had never been in the habit of resting; why should she begin now?
2447She looked about her-- what was left?
2447She was a little taken aback, and said,''What do you mean by"improving"?''
2447Should they appoint Zobeir, reinforce Sir Gerald Graham, and smash up the Mahdi?
2447Should they reverse that policy?
2447Supposing that the relief expedition arrived, what would be his position?
2447Swept him-- where to?
2447The great question is: Is God enough for you now?
2447The offer had been made; would it be accepted?
2447The position of the English in Egypt itself was still ambiguous; the future was obscure; how long, in reality, would an English army remain in Egypt?
2447The whole matter, no doubt, was Providential-- what other explanation could there be?
2447The whole system of the Army Medical Department, the education of the Medical Officer, the regulations of hospital procedure... REST?
2447There could hardly be any doubt that it WAS Renan; who else could it be?
2447There was a pause; and then,''Do you think you are improving?''
2447They could not understand it-- what had women to do with war?
2447They said:"Did Wolseley tell you your orders?"
2447Things were not as they had once been: Monsignor Talbot was at Passy, and Pio Nono was-- where?
2447This being, so, the only question remaining to be asked is:''What beings should we then conceive that God would create?''
2447To oblige them, whether they would or no, to send an army to smash up the Mahdi?
2447To stake his whole future upon General Gordon''s fate?
2447To subject the Bible to free inquiry, to exercise upon it the criticism of the individual judgment-- where might not such methods lead?
2447To threaten resignation?
2447To what remote corner or what enormous stage, to what self- sacrificing drudgeries or what resounding exploits, would the hand of God lead him now?
2447Unto what state of life had it pleased Him to call Charlotte Corday, or Elizabeth of Hungary?
2447WHAT IS to be done?''
2447Was THAT his duty?
2447Was he not also of the family of the prophet?
2447Was he to improve the character of his pupils by gradually spreading around them an atmosphere of cultivation and intelligence?
2447Was he to let them fall without a blow into the clutches of a sanguinary impostor?
2447Was he to pit his strength against Mr. Gladstone''s?
2447Was it because he was too important for the Holy See to care to interfere with him?
2447Was it conceivable that the strange and weary pilgrimage of so many years should end at length in quietude, if not in happiness, where it had begun?
2447Was it not her duty simply to tend the sick?
2447Was it not known that he might almost be said to have an independent mind?
2447Was it not possible that General Gordon might get into difficulties, that he might be surrounded and cut off from Egypt''?
2447Was it not, therefore, God''s unwritten word?
2447Was it possible that Dr. Newman did not understand that ideas in Rome were, to say the least of it, out of place?
2447Was it possible that all was well at last?
2447Was it possible that, at the last moment, the crowning wreath of victory was to be snatched from her grasp?
2447Was it so?
2447Was it the magnetic vigour of the dead man''s spirit that moved them?
2447Was not one thing, at least, obvious-- that if the English were to conquer and occupy the Sudan, their evacuation of Egypt would become impossible?
2447Was not that the explanation of it all?
2447Was not the Oxford Movement, with its flood of converts, a clear sign of the Divine will?
2447Was not the participation of the Body and Blood of Christ essential to the maintenance of Christian life and hope in each individual?
2447Was she asking of others more than she was giving herself?
2447Was she not in reality merely a nurse?
2447Was the Church of England, or was it not, a part of the Church Catholic?
2447Was the famous Syllabus Errorum, for example, issued ex cathedra or not?
2447Was the movement in the Press during that second week of January a genuine movement, expressing a spontaneous wave of popular feeling?
2447Was there even one?''
2447Were Timothy and Titus Bishops?
2447Were there five?
2447Were there no other Christian heroes in the world?
2447Were there ten?
2447Were they not rich, well- connected, and endowed with an infinite capacity for making speeches?
2447Were they to allow the Egyptians to become more and more deeply involved in a ruinous, perhaps ultimately a fatal, war with the Mahdi?
2447Were they, or were they not, members of the Church of Christ?
2447What did Pio Nono say?
2447What had happened?
2447What had he accomplished?
2447What had he to look back upon?
2447What had he to look forward to?
2447What human faculty was capable of deciding upon such enormous questions?
2447What is he sent to school for?...
2447What is to be done?
2447What is to become of me?''
2447What mysterious mixture of remorse, rage, and jealousy?
2447What other nation on the face of the earth could have produced Mr. Gladstone and Sir Evelyn Baring and Lord Hartington and General Gordon?
2447What possible objection could there be to such a scheme?
2447What shall I do?''
2447What should he do next?
2447What strange ironic prescience had led Prince Albert, in the simplicity of his heart, to choose that motto for the Crimean brooch?
2447What was Sir Evelyn Baring to do?
2447What was it?
2447What was it?
2447What was that secret voice in her ear, if it was not a call?
2447What was the Will of God?
2447What was there desirable in such a thing as that?
2447What was to be done?
2447What were they to do?
2447What would be the end of it all?
2447What, then, was the meaning of''rightly''?
2447What, then, was the truth?
2447When he received, for instance, a letter such as the following from an agitated lady, what was he to say?
2447When she spoke, they were obliged to listen; and, when they had once begun to do that-- what might not follow?
2447Where was Newman five years ago?''
2447Where were they to go?
2447Who could doubt it?
2447Who could face that?
2447Who could say that they would not end in Socinianism?--nay, in Atheism itself?
2447Who had bothered with such trifles in the Peninsula?
2447Who was he that he should dare to imagine that he could impose his will upon Mr. Gladstone?
2447Who was it that was ultimately responsible for sending General Gordon to Khartoum?
2447Who was to decide what was or was not a matter of faith or morals?
2447Why 318?
2447Why are they so?
2447Why did not the man come back?
2447Why does he not put all his guns on the river and stop the route?
2447Why had he ever known Miss Nightingale?
2447Why on earth does he not guard his roads better?
2447Why should not public prayers be offered up for General Gordon in every church in the kingdom?
2447Why should there be anything better in store for Manning?
2447Why was even her vision of heaven itself filled with suffering patients to whom she was being useful?
2447Why, then, should she spare others?
2447Why, therefore, should the Pope, within his sphere-- the sphere of the Catholic Church-- be denied a similar infallibility?
2447Why?
2447Will you go and do it?"
2447Would he, knowing what he did of her religious views, come to London and administer to her the Holy Sacrament?
2447Yet how was Newman himself to suggest this?
2447Yet it was not so before Dr. Arnold; will it always be so after him?
2447Yet, in spite of all, in spite of these exasperations of the flesh, these agitations of the spirit, what was there to regret?
2447You may say,"But do you mean that He will give us the very thing?"
2447he exclaimed, is the same chalice made use of by everyone?''
2447in which were propounded the questions"Are not ruins recognised and felt to be more beautiful than perfect structures?
5406And what,said I,"will your minister say to your going to worship in a cathedral?
5406Are you an Anglican?
5406Beyond this village I can not go to- night-- do you want me to go out and sleep under a hedge?
5406Branscomb-- are you going there? 5406 But who was he?"
5406Did you ever see a cowslip ball, Lizzie?
5406Do you call this a cottage?
5406Do you see them trees?
5406Have you never had anything stolen?
5406How long has the custom existed?
5406I suppose,he said, before getting on his bicycle,"there''s nothing beside the cathedral and Stonehenge to see in Wiltshire?"
5406Oh,she cried, and it was a cry of pain,"was I once as beautiful as that?"
5406What am I to do, then?
5406What are you shouting about?
5406Why?
5406A costlier work it would be hard to find; I wonder how many of us have seen it?
5406And I was going there-- would I, could I, be so heartless as to refuse to take him?
5406And at last the girl, to break the uncomfortable silence, said,"Where shall we hang it, mother?"
5406And what at last did I see with my physical eyes?
5406But of this story what corroboration is there, and what do the books say?
5406But the people who had possessed the land before these emigrants-- what of them?
5406But there was his family name to go by-- Dyson; did any one remember a farmer Dyson in the village?
5406But what and who was he, and what connection had he with Bath?
5406But what did he mean by my politics?
5406But what race?
5406But-- the weather was keeping very bad: was there ever known such a June as this of 1907?
5406Could it be that all that mental picture, with the details that seemed so true to life, was purely imaginary?
5406Did it go out like the glow- worm''s lamp, the life and sweetness of the flower?
5406For who does not make a little inward moan, an Eve''s Lamentation, an unworded,"Must I leave thee, Paradise?"
5406He would make no inquiries; he would find his home for himself; how could he fail to recognize it?
5406How big was it?
5406How did these same"few old stones"strike me on a first visit?
5406How did they do it?
5406I asked him; was it as big as an ostrich?
5406I like better the old Spanish poet who says,"What of Rome; its world- conquering power, and majesty and glory-- what has it come to?"
5406If not How can it be that she doth cast her lot Now there, now here, pursuing summer everywhere?
5406Is it alive to- day?
5406Is she very poor?"
5406Leaving all that, let us ask what remains to us of another generation of all she was and did?
5406Next day it was the same, and the next, and the day after that; then I inquired about it-- Was there a dog in that house or not?
5406On the other hand, who ever saw a carrion- crow with crimson eyes?
5406The swallow, swiftly flying here and there, Can it be true that dreary household care Doth goad her to incessant flight?
5406To be sure I labour most assiduously to destroy a system of distress and misery; but is that any reason why a Lord should dislike my politics?
5406Well, I had to sleep somewhere, I told her: could n''t she direct me to a cottage where I could get a bed?
5406What do judges of literature say of it now?
5406What was Branscombe to her, I returned with indifference; and what did it matter what any stranger thought of it?
5406Why could I not have been satisfied for once with a cup of coffee with my lunch?
5406Why then, I asked, not go back on another morning, when I would have the whole place to myself?
5406Why, I asked myself, am I not a poet, or verse- maker, so as to say my farewell in numbers?
5406Yet who would blame him?
5406You have probably heard of Lady Y--?"
5406You knew it then-- where was it?"
5406on quitting any such sweet restful spot, however brief his stay in it may have been?
5406or"Morning, Jack,"or"Where be going, Jack?"
5406why art thou so high, When the slight covering of her neck slips by, Then half revealing to the eager sight Her full, ripe bosom, exquisitely white?
6910But why do n''t you like me, my boy?
6910My prevailing feeling is, What am I that such happiness should be mine? 6910 Why do all the gentlemen take off their hats to me and not to my sister Feodora?"
6910''A cat may look at a king,''it is said; but how about looking at the Queen?
6910Above all, how would this royal girl, on whose conduct so much depended, demean herself on this crucial occasion?
6910After I had painted for some time, she said,"May I look?"
6910And the hand which he portrayed?
6910Did the pictures serve as illustrations to the history lessons?
6910George II., in his old age?
6910How the small dauntless applicant wiled his father''s master, great Louis''s rival, into playing at horses in the corridor?

6910Or are your bailies snorin''yet?
6910Or are your drums a- beatin''yet?
6910Or that sadder story of another less fortunate boy, poor heavy- headed William of Gloucester?
6910She had dwelt at Windsor before as a cherished guest; but what must it not have been to her to enter these gates as the Queen?
6910She then asked whence it came; and what do you think I said?
6910Should he be permitted to soil-- were it but in thought-- the lily of whose stainlessness the nation was so proud?
6910The Princess touched her and said,''No, Lehzen, twice, do n''t you remember?''
6910The favourite was"The wee, wee German Lairdie,"and began in this fashion:-- Wha the Diel hae we gotten for a King, But a wee, wee German Lairdie?
6910The sick girl cried, and asked if this act was not beautiful?
6910This a Christian land-- a land of freedom?"
6910What do you think?
6910What was there to hinder King Leopold from following out the comparison?
6910What were the police thinking of?
6910Who would not hurry to meet and greet her, to give her the warmest reception?
6910or William, worn out in his prime?
6910or it may be heavy, pacific George of Denmark, raised to the kingly rank by the courtesy of vague tradition?
6910what meaning can it have?
48522Ai n''t there enough in the kettle, master?
48522Any men- servants?
48522But where be Mistress Chowne?
48522But where be the wife?
48522But why did the packmen travel together, Caleb?
48522But why not, master?

48522Do''y ask it as a personal favour, my lord?

48522Is there a kitchen- maid kept?
48522Married or single?
48522Miss Wildbrough,said he,"are you ill?
48522No carts or waggons, then?
48522Not for asses, Caleb?
48522Of what does your family consist?
48522The full moon was shining, do you say?
48522Then hardly jolly times for packmen?
48522They could not stop you?
48522Well, young shaver,said Ralph,"what are you staying here for?"
48522What are you about? 48522 What wages?"
48522Where be you a- going to to- day?
48522Where''s Joe? 48522 Work is it you want?
48522You know me, do you?
48522You want a character, ma''am? 48522 & c. The landlords cry, What shall we do? 48522 A worthy old servant, who had been with my grandfather, then my father, then with me, and-- who knows? 48522 And Goldsmith''s Vicar of Wakefield-- was ever a purer, sweeter type of man delineated? 48522 And every branch so fair and clean? 48522 Are art, beauty, pleasure to the spectators to be left out of count altogether? 48522 At last she asked of this tree How came this freshness unto thee? 48522 But did not my keepers stop your coming up this way?
48522But then is a dance arranged simply to enable a young pair to clasp each other and whisper into each others ears?
48522But then-- is it not the prerogative of such tales to attach themselves to the last human notoriety?
48522But will you, to oblige me, give up the pack?"
48522Can you take them?"
48522Chowne turned his head over his shoulder and asked,"Mrs. Chowne, be you satisfied or be you not?
48522Do any of my readers know the cosiness of an oak- panelled or of a tapestried room?
48522Does the reader know Swift''s_ Rules and Directions for Servants_?
48522Does the reader remember the charming account of the servants in the household of Sir Roger de Coverly?
48522Does the reader remember the time when all such goods were brought by carriers?
48522Have they not bequeathed the latter to their successors, and carried away their merits with them into a better world?
48522How are we to account for this amazing extinction?
48522How can we sit in the beautiful halls and panelled boudoirs of the old people, and not be thankful to them for having made them so charming?
48522How can we walk in the avenues they planted, pick the flowering shrubs they grouped and bedded, and not be grateful to them?
48522How did she manage it without a kitchen range with hot plates?
48522How have you done these thousand years?
48522How is it now in a ball?
48522How was it that china, glass, mirrors, ever reached the country houses intact?
48522If they like it, why should not we?
48522Is it true?"
48522Is the old"good and faithful servant"a thing of the past?
48522Lady X--, one day coming over, said to him,"Will you come back in my carriage with me, and dine at the Park?
48522Look''y here,"--he put his white head near me and raised the hair,--"do''y see now how my head be a cut about?
48522No doubt that the results were good in one way-- but where is a good unmixed?
48522Now who would even think of a servant when such a question is asked?
48522Now-- is there in these ideas anything more than a fancy, a delusion, a superstition?
48522Pierre?"
48522Presently a man came along the side and halted, and called to the fellow in danger,"I say, be you a Peter Tavy or a Mary Tavy man?"
48522Should she go to Bath, and spend the remainder of her days at cards, amusing herself?
48522So I stood up to go, and then one chap, he said to me,''Got to the end o''your zongs, old man?''
48522Such conduct would be regarded as highly indecorous now; but was there harm in it?
48522Tell''y-- did''y ever hear Such a story, true but queer, How''twixt Christmas and New Year The flock had ate their Passon?"
48522There''s no butcher for miles and miles, and I ca n''t get a joint but once in a fortnight maybe; what should I do without rabbits and hares?
48522Was it not well that the parson should be associated with the merry- makings of his flock?
48522We make much fuss about parochial visiting now, but is there any visiting like that?
48522What ails you?"
48522What is the origin of our title for certain dances--"Country Dances"?
48522What was the result?
48522When I entered he said to me,"I suppose you met little Mary So- and- so and Janie What''s- her- name going out?
48522Where are the Dynhams, once holding many lordships in Devon?
48522Where are they now?
48522Which will''y now prefer, Joe or the porker?"
48522Who has got a calendar?"
48522Who is the painter?
48522Who that is over fifty does not remember them?
48522Who would not live the life of the jolly waggoner?
48522Why are you trespassing?"
48522Why should we imitate wild nature?
48522[ Illustration] I wonder whether the day will ever dawn on England when our country houses will be as deserted as are those in France and Germany?
48522[ Illustration] Why not?
48522_ Duke''s serv._ Well, Baronet, and where have you been?
48522or should she devote it to a country life, and to repairing the shattered fortunes of the family?
48522said he to the clerk,"however comes this about-- are there only boys born in this place?"
48522that he should lead and direct their music?
48522why should not the parson mount his cob and go after the hounds?

45131''Do n''t you think Bradlaugh was harshly treated?'' 45131 Did you see his boots, Hypatia?"
45131Do n''t you think it would be better to do so?
45131Does the House,he asked,"mean that it is a party to each oath taken?
45131Have you anything to say in mitigation?
45131Have you consulted any one about it?
45131Hunter will do it, you say?... 45131 One existence,"Mr Vaughan thought, must mean"supreme existence;"failing that, counsel asked was it"mere actual physical existence"?
45131Outlaw or citizen?
45131That was a detective, and those who instructed him evidently think that''Man, whence and how?'' 45131 What can I do for you?"
45131When?
45131You wish me to go away?
45131[ 81][ Footnote 81: Pamphlet,Is there a God?"
45131''Well, my good woman, what is it?''
45131( 2) Was he sitting to prepare notes for use in addressing Bradlaugh?
45131( 3) Had he resumed his seat to let Bradlaugh swear?
45131( 4) Was Bradlaugh then without belief in a Supreme Being?
45131( 5) Was he a person on whose conscience an oath,_ as an oath_, had no binding force?
45131( 6) Had the House full cognisance of these matters through Bradlaugh''s avowal?
45131( 7) Did he take the oath according to Parliamentary practice?
45131( 8) Generally, did he take and subscribe the oath?
45131A little later, in thinking it all over, he asked,"You think I can quite rely upon Hunter doing it?"
45131A series of serenely trenchant papers on the question"Are the Hebrew Scriptures Impregnable?"
45131AN UNIMPORTANT CHAPTER 30 Side lights--"Man, whence and how?"
45131All these phases are closed to them; and why?
45131Among other things he wrote a weighty little pamphlet:"The Channel Tunnel: Ought the Democracy to Oppose or Support it?"
45131And who pays the rest?
45131And why?
45131And, as my father further asked,"Why did Alderman Ellis direct the prosecution?"
45131Another reference to Bradlaugh''s conscience brought out the cry,"What is its value?"
45131Are members, whose conduct may be obnoxious, to vote my exclusion because to them my opinions are obnoxious?"
45131Are the people poor?
45131Are they aware that there are many in this House who regard these words as a blasphemous form?
45131Asked:"Do you draw any distinction between the binding effect upon your conscience of the assertory oath, as it is called, and the promissory oath?"
45131But does the House mean it is a party now?
45131But how is this feeling to be tested?
45131But how were they going to apply it?
45131But is that a reason-- that because I stand alone, the House are to do against me what they would not do if I had 100,000 men at my back?
45131But would they?
45131Did he ever sit among those who have promoted those relaxations?
45131Did the House join in it?
45131Do they mean to you:''May God desert and forsake me as I deserted and forsook the Queen''s supremacy, to which I so solemnly swore allegiance''?
45131Do you do either?
45131Do you suppose that in times past the Founder of Christianity has required an oath in this House to defend the religion which He founded?
45131Formally, there went to the jury eight questions, to this effect:( 1) Was the Speaker sitting when Bradlaugh took the oath on 11th February?
45131Have you any such fear?
45131Have you no personal shame that you have broken your oath?
45131He wrote a stirring article asking,"Why should the people of England pay £ 4,000,000 to the Viceroy of Egypt?"
45131His doctrine is that the universe and its total energy must be conceived as infinite and eternal; that in physics the question"Why?"
45131How do you understand them of your broken oath?
45131I asked if he was going to the House?
45131If opinions, why not conduct?
45131If so, why do the city authorities pay even £ 700 towards the costs?
45131If the House did not join in it, why did you cheer so that the words of the oath were drowned?
45131If, he asked, they set up the principle of a creed test, where were they going to end?
45131In the autumn of 1878 Mr Bradlaugh determined to take one of Professor Flint''s lectures,"Is belief in God reasonable?"
45131Is it the oath alone which stirs you?
45131Is that not some proof that I have honour and conscience?"
45131Is there not some proof to the contrary in the fact that I did not go through the form, believing that there was another right open to me?
45131It dealt with the question raised by Mr Chamberlain,"Is a National Party possible?"
45131Knowing how he ordinarily shrank from any outward display of his feelings, and especially how much he disliked mere form, I said,"Why, how is this?
45131Mr A. M. Sullivan, another Catholic, made a rabid speech, supporting the cause of religion with the plea,"Where was the class that was oppressed now?
45131Mr Hyndman chose to debate with him on the issue,"Will Socialism benefit the English People?"
45131None in the rash taking or the wilful breaking?
45131On the question of dignity, raised by Mr Clarke, he asked:"Do you mean that I can injure the dignity of this House?
45131Only when it is asked,"Can we evolve up to Socialism?"
45131Or do the pride and pomp of your ecclesiastical position outbribe your conscience?
45131That''s what my religion has done for me: what has your way of thinking done for you?''
45131The mean insult of a"Hear, hear"when he asked,"Do you tell me I am unfit to sit amongst you?"
45131The most direct thrust in the speech is perhaps the following:--"What will you inquire into?
45131The question discussed was,"Can miracles be proved possible?"
45131The subject agreed upon, and worded by Mr Westerby, was,"Has, or is, man a soul?"
45131The subject selected for discussion was,"Is it reasonable to worship God?"
45131They are:( 1) Socialism; For and Against: written debate with Mrs Besant, 1887;( 2) Will Socialism benefit the English People?
45131This seems to have astonished Bradlaugh, for he arose, and as he went out of the room, he said,''What the devil is to be done with that man?
45131Was it a party the session before last?
45131Was the Archdeacon of Chichester ambitious of the Cardinal''s hat that he became so readily forsworn?"
45131Was the House a party when John Stuart Mill sat in this House?"
45131Was the Rector of Lavington and Graffham covetous of an archbishopric that he broke his oath?
45131Was the State to undertake the emigration?
45131We have seen and heard enough of those falsely imputed: what was his real share of human infirmity?
45131Were the people to be sent away by force, and to what lands were they to go?
45131What do we mean by"why,"apart from matters of volition?
45131What is meant by a"complete philosophy of the human mind"?
45131What is"explanation"?
45131What then were his faults?
45131Where are our statesmen--_our clergy_?
45131Whom do you seek to admit?
45131Why have you pulled all the blinds down?"
45131Why not examine into members''conduct when they come to the table, and see if there be no members in whose way you can put a barrier?
45131Will you inquire into my conduct, or is it only my opinions you will try here?
45131Would it not be better to do away with the member''s oath altogether, and make the affirmation general?"
45131Would they next question members known to be unbelievers, though not publicly professed ones?

9822Can you not guess the writer?
9822Has he?
9822I hope that I shall not forfeit your good opinion,said he;"but--""But what, my lord?"
9822No,he replied;"pray who is she?"
9822Say, ye severest...... what would you have done?
9822Tom will die in a gaol; and what is to become of you?
9822What would you have me do? 9822 When with thee, what ills could harm me?

9822Who commands the upper story?

9822Do not our hearts sink?
9822Does not that recall the present policy?
9822Had I ever heard such a sigh from a husband''s bosom?
9822Had Pitt seen him?
9822How have I been treated?
9822How old is the girl you have chosen?"
9822How, then, can it be possible that we should resign, without a severe pang, the first of all human blessings, the friend we love?
9822Indeed, how could a young man, well educated,[18] subsist in such a metropolis without some provision?
9822Is it within its consecrated precincts that this heart shall shortly moulder?
9822Mr. Robinson having once more obtained his liberty, how were we to subsist honourably and above reproach?
9822One day, complaining to Dudley North that he was a prey to rheumatism,"Pray,"cried North,"did your Grace ever try a clean shirt?"
9822Robinson?"
9822Shall I offer him his liberty on condition that he allows you to separate yourself from him?
9822Shall I propose to Mr. Robinson to let you go?
9822Soon afterward a gentleman said to him,"Pray, my lord, do you know with whom you have been dancing?"
9822The owner, in his apron and sleeves, stoutly refused his vote, except on one condition,--"Would her Grace give him a kiss?"
9822What business have beggars to marry?"
9822What is to become of you in a prison?
9822Where was I to go?
9822Why does my pen seem suddenly arrested while I write the word?
9822Will those scenes, we thought, ever recur?
9822[ 37]"Well, my lord, and what does this mean?"
9822am I doomed to find Thou art a phantom of the mind?
9822and what do you want?"
9822said Mr. Harris,"and what do you mean to do with your child?"
9822so you have escaped from a prison, and now you are come here to do penance for your follies?
9822why to me Come unregarded, undelighting still This ever- mourning bosom?
35894But did not the United States crush the Confederates when secession was demanded?
35894But,some will answer,"is it right that we should be deluged with foreign paupers, who come upon our rates without paying a penny towards them?"
35894Good for the unemployedmay be replied, but who would have to pay for the additional labour?
35894What,it may be asked,"is local option, or county councils, or''three acres and a cow''to me?
35894Why ca n''t you let things alone?
35894_ Can_ the Church be disestablished?
3589425 V. WHY NOT HAVE A"NATIONAL"PARTY?
35894ARE LIBERALS AND RADICALS AGREED?
35894After this recital of Liberal deeds, it may fairly be asked,"What are Liberal principles?"
35894And as for the"profit- monger,"is not the workman who is better off than the poorest among his fellows deserving the name?
35894And has England ceased to be Christian because Baron de Worms is sitting on one side of the Speaker and Mr. Bradlaugh on the other?
35894And is the danger which lurks beneath it imaginary?
35894And then comes a question which many will deem of all- importance--"How is the Church to exist afterwards?"
35894And what would become of the poor, the weak, and the helpless if the State stood aside from all interference with the affairs of men?
35894And where would science be if we still swore by the skill of the alchemists?
35894And with what result?
35894And, further, if it were practicable, would it be just?
35894And, to put it on the most sordid ground, where would England and English trade have been had such a principle been acted upon by other countries?
35894Are our Government departments such models of efficiency and economy that such a belief can be entertained for a moment?
35894Are they all to be included in the eight hours''proposal?
35894As for rabble, who have nothing but personal property, what hold has the nation of them?
35894Because we no longer suffer from the Plague, the Sweating Sickness, and the Black Death, do the doctors sit with folded arms?
35894Because we travel faster than our fathers, do we frown upon all improvements in locomotion?
35894But are we, therefore, to do no more?
35894But as all questions covered by the phrase can not be put in the simple form"Shall we go to war?"
35894But does the illustration hold good whether applied to such a limited area as a county or to the country at large?
35894But has the suffrage really been extended to every householder?
35894But in what department of human affairs_ is_ perfection possible?
35894But is even that an unmixed evil?
35894But who is to define how far a reactionary may go without being considered"extreme,"and who in the English Parliament is"an anarchist"?
35894But why should not the process be carried further, and the affairs of the country be settled by day instead of by night?
35894But, it is sometimes asked, where are the old philosophical Radicals-- men of the stamp of Bentham, and Grote, and James Mill?
35894DO THE LAND LAWS NEED REFORM?
35894Did not Englishmen aid, both by men and money, in liberating Greece and uniting Italy?
35894Did they not even raise a fund to assist the slave- holding States when in rebellion?
35894Do we not all know the idle worthless son of good and hard- working parents, a curse to his own and to all with whom he comes in contact?
35894Does it not equally argue freedom from principle?
35894Does it not rather prove that those who adopted it, like mortal men everywhere and in all ages, were fallible?
35894For what is the first question that naturally arises?
35894Granting they form an extreme exception, how are we to deal with shopkeepers and all whom they employ?
35894HOW FAR SHOULD THE STATE INTERFERE?
35894HOW IS LOCAL OPTION TO BE EFFECTED?
35894HOW IS TAXATION TO BE REDUCED?
35894HOW IS THE LIBERAL PROGRAMME TO BE ATTAINED?
35894HOW OUGHT WE TO BE TAXED?
35894HOW OUGHT WE TO DEAL WITH SOCIALISM?
35894HOW SHOULD LOCAL SELF- GOVERNMENT BE EXTENDED?
35894HOW SHOULD WE DEAL WITH THE COLONIES?
35894HOW SHOULD WE GUIDE OUR FOREIGN POLICY?
35894Has not the same argument been used against religion; and is it not one of the poorest in the whole armoury of controversy?
35894He had already done much, but he wished to do more, and on being asked by his opponents,"Where will you stop?"
35894How are we taxed?
35894How could anything be gained in politics without agitation?
35894How ought we to be taxed?
35894I.--WHAT IS THE USE OF A VOTE?

35894III.--WHY NOT LET THINGS ALONE?

35894IV.--OUGHT ONE TO BE A PARTISAN?
35894IX.--WHAT ARE THE LIBERALS DOING?
35894If any such proposal is to be made, how is it to be carried out?
35894If every honest man abstained from politics, with what right could he complain that all politicians were rogues?
35894If he did that, there would be needed no further answer to the question,"How is the Liberal Programme to be attained?"
35894If the answer is"The working classes,"the further question is"How are these to be defined?"
35894If they have not, what further measure could be taken?
35894In none did we do so, and who to- day will argue that abstention was wrong?
35894Is any further proof required that, if Parliament chooses, the latter can at any moment be severed from the State?
35894Is he certain those reasons cover the whole case?
35894Is it altogether such an unfair thing that we should, as in the United States, tax all incomes according to their amount?...
35894Is it any wonder that Irish agitation should have become revolutionary when that is the only kind we have rewarded?
35894Is it any wonder, then, that the demand should be growing for a graduated Income Tax?
35894Is it in medicine?
35894Is it in religion?
35894Is it in science?
35894Is it not an admitted fact that it was by royal ordinance such an impost was first levied, and by force of law that it has since been maintained?
35894Is it true that the system of free imports has ruined agriculture and crippled manufactures?
35894Is not experience all the other way?
35894Is not that of Ireland in particular a striking testimony to the wisdom of substituting the voluntary system for State support?
35894Is not this a technical rather than a real argument?
35894Is that plot to be seized by the State without payment?
35894Is this man''s £1000 a year to be mulcted in the same amount with £1000 a year derived from a real property capital of £25,000?
35894It certainly shows that in certain instances men do not come up to their ideal, but does that prove the ideal to be wrong?
35894It is vague; it is high- sounding; but what does it mean?
35894It was dishonourable, unpatriotic, and pusillanimous; but Mr. Gladstone persevered, and with what result?
35894Many would be surprised if told that there remained serious deficiencies in our electoral system; and would ask,"How can that be?
35894My answer, therefore, to the question,"How is Local Option to be worked?"
35894Nominally that tax is four shillings in the pound on the full annual value, but actually what does it stand at?
35894OUGHT EDUCATION TO BE FREE?
35894OUGHT LEASEHOLDS TO BE ENFRANCHISED?
35894OUGHT ONE TO BE A PARTISAN?
35894OUGHT THE STATE TO FIND FOOD AND WORK FOR ALL?
35894Of a drastic change in the land or the game laws from a party propped up by landlords and game preservers?
35894Of a popular veto upon licensing from a party to which belong nine- tenths of the publicans?
35894Of an improved magistracy from a party deriving great influence from the country squires?
35894Of disestablishment in Scotland and Wales, to say nothing of England, from a party relying for much of its power upon the clergy?
35894Of, in fact, any great reform whatsoever from a party which places"vested interests"in the forefront to the frequent exclusion of justice?
35894Ought we to pass a law prohibiting every foreigner from landing?
35894Owners in other countries do so, and why not here?
35894SHOULD HOME RULE BE GRANTED TO IRELAND?
35894SHOULD THE CHURCH REMAIN ESTABLISHED?
35894SHOULD THE STATE INTERFERE WITH PROPERTY?
35894SHOULD THE STATE REGULATE LABOUR OR WAGES?
35894SHOULD THE STATE SOLVE SOCIAL PROBLEMS?
35894SHOULD WASTE LANDS BE TILLED AND THE GAME LAWS ABOLISHED?
35894So much for the theory: what of the fact?
35894Some may hide behind the question put and answered eighteen centuries ago; may ask, as was then asked,"Who is my neighbour?"
35894Supposing one asked,"Where is the Act establishing the monarchy?"
35894The question,"Would disendowment be just?"
35894The rent is raised because of the success his own faculties have secured, onerous conditions in the way of repairs are imposed, and what can he do?
35894The reply may be made,"But, granting that leases for lives often have cruel results, is not the remedy in the hands of those who want leases?
35894There are many persons, who, though possessing the suffrage, often put the question,"What is the use of a vote?"
35894There being no doubt that, if the people will, the Church can be disestablished, a further question remains,"Ought it to be so dealt with?"
35894There was a time, and that not far distant, when the question"Is the House of Commons perfect?"
35894This is legal, but is it commonly honest?
35894To what thanks are later generations entitled for simply restoring to the Irish the rights of which they had been robbed?
35894V.--WHY NOT HAVE A"NATIONAL"PARTY?

35894Was not the same thing said when Jews were admitted to Parliament and Atheists claimed admission?
35894We know such a man does not exist, and why should the conditions be changed if the graduation went further than at present?
35894What hope is there of a sound reform of the House of Lords from a party closely wedded to the aristocracy?
35894What of the political, what of the social, what of the moral benefits?
35894What person in his senses would erect a substantial factory or a large concern of any kind upon a comparatively short lease?
35894What reason is there to believe that the Irish would be less able to manage their own affairs than the people of Bulgaria?
35894What sane man would conduct a shop as it was conducted 500 years since?
35894What security for the payment of their taxes?
35894What then is the theory upon which so much may depend?
35894What will be said of war in the time to come?
35894What would this mean?
35894What, then, is it that is asked, and why is it demanded?
35894When it is done, one is entitled to ask what the phrase means?
35894When you require me to take an active part in promoting the measures here indicated, how, I want to know, am I concerned in any one of them?"
35894Where is the proof?
35894Who were Walpole, Pitt, Burke, Fox, Canning, Peel, Cobden, Gladstone, and Disraeli?
35894Why are we taxed?
35894Why do they take those for lives?"
35894Why not to the body of the machine as well as to its principle, why not to the pages of the book as well as to what they contain?
35894Why should brains exercised in one direction be handicapped in comparison with those exercised in another?
35894Why should he not be as fairly paid for his skill and foresight as if he had bought a house on a similar belief?
35894Why should not his power in this direction be limited?
35894Why should not the same principle be applied to income of every sort from land as to income of every sort from wages, profits, or invested capital?
35894Why this difference?
35894Why, then, should bullion be carefully protected and brains despoiled?
35894Why?
35894Would all these gains count as nothing to the Church, considered as a religious body?
35894Would it not be well to first ask what the Irish have had to be grateful for?
35894Would the number of Christians in this country be lessened by a single one if the Church were deprived of State support?

9900Mr. Gladstone retorted:"I want to know, to what Constitution does it give a mortal stab?

947What can this mean?
947What will Nelson think of us?
947Who is that?
947You ask me, my dear friend,he says to Lady Hamilton,"if I am going on more expeditions?
947--"I hope,"said Nelson,"none of our ships have struck?"
947And under what circumstances, and with what pointed aggravation?

947If not, why were the proceedings hurried on without it?

947The Austrian repeatedly asked, if there was not a risk of losing the squadron?

947Why did he not take possession of them?
947Why was a second trial refused, when the known animosity of the president of the court against the prisoner was considered?
947Why was the execution hastened, so as to preclude any appeal for mercy, and render the prerogative of mercy useless?

45712Be you on business or pleasure, I wonder?
45712Ca n''t you guess?
45712Could I see the house?
45712Did you record it in the Log?
45712Does any one know how that saying originated?
45712Does it not to- day?
45712Good gracious,exclaimed the squire,"do you think I am going to take a chair and sit out- of- doors and look at my house?
45712How are you going to catch the bat?
45712How is that?
45712However do you manage to remember people and their names?
45712I did not ask the way to the church,I responded;"why did you point it out?"
45712I was admiring it too,I said;"do you know anything about it and how it came there?"
45712In what line do you travel?
45712Surely you have made a mistake?
45712Talking of lightning,he went on,"do you know it is a fact that lightning never strikes a moving object?"
45712The next parson,I exclaimed in astonishment;"whatever do you mean?
45712What do you mean?
45712What pond? 45712 What pond?"
45712What reply did you make?
45712What''s in a name?
45712Where be you bound for?
45712Where is his tomb?
45712Which wood?
45712Would you care to come into the garden and see what a fine view I''ve from it?
45712A skeleton only, buried in cement in a coffin, not in a churchyard-- that is surely suggestive of mystery?
45712After all, may it not be that the term"gentle craft"came from the fact of the use of gentles as baits?
45712After this who shall say that old houses have not their romances, recorded or unrecorded?
45712All the servants and the guests were accounted for, and"If the figure were not a ghost, what could it have been?"
45712Are unsought- for"sollicitations to a 2nd marriage"likely to shorten life?
45712As the horseman drew near, what, think you, must have been her feelings when with bowed head he clattered onwards without a sign?
45712As the stone is not now there, has not been there, except in bits, for long years, why do they still mark it on the map?
45712Better this, surely, than to lead an aimless, lazy existence?
45712But another maid, who had overheard the conversation, graciously came up to me and explained:"We''re having an open- air bazaar; will you come to it?
45712But how could the poor porter tell that, if the man looked not the part?
45712But to return to the vestry of Tong church, said the clerk to me,"Have you heard of the Great Bell of Tong?"
45712Could I tell a lie?
45712Do I talk too much of inns?
45712Does not Alonzo of Aragon say that the recommendations of age are"old wood to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read"?
45712Does not even cosmopolitan Kipling pronounce his preference for"Sussex by the sea"over all the world?
45712Does the brass being dateless point to anything?
45712Grieved indeed am I that it should be so, for as a child I dearly loved the merry bickering windmill-- what child does not?
45712Had"The Sheffield Arms"a tale to tell?
45712How came it there, I wonder, and who presented it to that famous highwayman?
45712How came so modest an inn to possess such a beautiful specimen of ancient carving?
45712How came that figure seated there?
45712How did the abbey come by its name?
45712How is a man like that to be dealt with?
45712How many are there, I wonder?
45712How many churchyards boast of having the biggest and oldest yew- tree in the land?
45712How many of those who pass daily close by have discovered that charmed spot, I wonder?
45712How, then, came this big upon little?
45712I am inclined to favour the former view; but when learned antiquaries disagree, how shall a mere layman decide?
45712I could not account for it, unless all its inhabitants were away making holiday, but where were the dogs and the fowls?
45712I knew not their names, but what mattered that?
45712I should like to unearth the story of the"Feathers,"for it looks like an inn with a storied past, else why those stately chambers?
45712I was neither hungry nor thirsty, so what need had I of an inn?
45712I will wager that no one grew prematurely old from overwork in it: why should he?
45712I wonder how many extra pennies good folk were induced to part with for the glory of being in the latter category?
45712I wonder how the medieval carver got his inspiration?
45712I wonder if either one is true?
45712I wonder whether our descendants in the far future will ever look back longingly and lovingly to"the good old motoring days"?
45712I wonder who he could have been?
45712If an inn you rest at has only a pleasant garden to moon in, what matters the town?
45712If not, what was it?
45712If"the finest landscape is improved by a good hotel in the foreground,"how much the more so in comparison is a commonplace town?
45712Is it not recorded that Cromwell once exclaimed to his troopers whilst crossing a river,"Trust in God,"followed quickly by"but keep your powder dry"?
45712Is supper ready?...
45712Is there not an old saying that at"Stow- on- the- Wold, the wind always blows cold"?
45712It balances itself naturally enough, but what tossed it up?
45712Need more be said?
45712Not but that Pure water is the best of gifts That man to man can bring; But what am I that I should have The best of everything?
45712Now if a philosopher can act so, how is an ordinary mortal to be blamed for the same failing to be responsive?
45712Now what is ten minutes to twenty years''long study?"
45712Pleasant surroundings surely, to a certain extent, influence the temperament of man?
45712Quite a plausible explanation it seems to me; then wherefore seek for a more improbable one?
45712Small wonder that a little girl who had been reading similar eulogies asked her father,"Where are all the bad people buried?"
45712So I put myself under his guidance, for who should take a more intelligent interest in, or know more about, a church than its parson?
45712Some shouted to us,"Why do n''t you blow your horn?"
45712Still, what traveller would be so cruelly critical as to doubt every legend he hears?
45712Strange that watching the restless waters should have given me a feeling of rest, but so it did; and do not some people find rest by the restless sea?
45712Surely Coleridge''s muse was quaint enough-- who else but he could have composed_ The Ancient Mariner_?
45712Surely the Devil does not go to church?"
45712That describes our road in two short but sufficient lines, and what need is there of more?

699And the Bishop of Hereford, who was the most skilful of her friends, said, What was to be done now?
699And you?''
699As the morning was very cold, the Sheriff said, would he come down to a fire for a little space, and warm himself?
699At last, when one gruff old gentleman had said to Joan,''What language do your Voices speak?''
699But when they cried,''Where is the Archbishop?''
699But, the foreigners only laughed disdainfully, and said,''What are your English laws to us?''
699Did you ever hear of a king who was drowned?''
699Dost thou think King Richard is behind it?''
699He seemed a little troubled to find that it was so low, and asked,''if there were no place higher?''
699Here was an imbecile, indolent, miserable King upon the throne; would n''t it be better to take him off, and put his son there instead?
699Is it not so?''
699Next day, when Davison told her it was sealed, she angrily asked him why such haste was necessary?
699No one speaks, and then he asks the Speaker of the House where those five members are?
699One asked the other who he was?
699One of the bishops who performed the ceremony asked the Normans, in French, if they would have Duke William for their king?
699Says Jack to the Lord Mayor and judges:''Will you be so good as to make a tribunal in Guildhall, and try me this nobleman?''
699She begged the executioner to despatch her quickly, and she asked him,''Will you take my head off before I lay me down?''
699Some have supposed that when the King spoke those hasty words,''Have I no one here who will deliver me from this man?''
699That presently the Emir sent for one of them, and conjured him, by his faith in his religion, to say what kind of man the King of England truly was?
699The King required to know whether the clergy would obey the ancient customs of the country?
699The King said was she a large woman, because he must have a fat wife?
699The question now was, what to do with her?
699Then, said those noblemen, would they love and serve young Edward?
699They asked her once again that day, after she was speechless, whether she was still in the same mind?
699Thomas a Becket said, at length,''What do you want?''
699Was Canute to be King now?
699What is the name of that castle yonder?''
699What time is there to make merry here, and yet reach England with the rest?''
699When Bruce came out, pale and disturbed, the friends who were waiting for him asked what was the matter?
699When he was bent down ready for death, he said to the executioner, finding that he hesitated,''What dost thou fear?
699When the year was out, the King, turning suddenly to Gloucester, in the midst of a great council said,''Uncle, how old am I?''
699Where is it?''
699Where shall we get another, when he is gone?''
699Where were the Conqueror''s three sons, that they were not at their father''s burial?
699said the Duke of Gloucester;''do you talk to me of ifs?
699said the Jews upon the walls,''when, if we open the gate by so much as the width of a foot, the roaring crowd behind thee will press in and kill us?''

44021The difficulty is caused by the statement as to the oaths of the sheriff, the tenants- in- chief(_ barones_), and their foreign(?
44021The first point to be considered is this: What was the information which the tenants- in- chief were called upon to supply in these returns?
44021The question may very fairly be asked,''What check had the crown upon a tenant in the event of the latter omitting some of his"excess"fees?''
44021Then''wanting is-- what?''

44021This brings us to the interesting question, why was such a writ issued?
44021Was not this a later harbour( 1637), and the real original one out to the south?]
44021Was then the Danelaw the district within which the systems prevailed?
44021Was there time, moreover, to construct such a fortress, if''the battle followed almost immediately'', as we learn,''on the arrival of Harold''?
44021Was, then, our author a mere pedant, or was this the name that ignorance bestowed on knowledge?
44021We are indeed; for, if he was''an aged man''half a century before, what must he have been when he joined the rebels in 1101?
44021We must read:''and thereof is"gewered"[?
44021We there read as follows: Is it possible that in the case of Leicester, at least, no power was left either to follow or to resist?
44021What are the corollaries of this conclusion?

44021What is the meaning of it?
44021What security, it may be asked, could they obtain for the terms they seem to have exacted?

41023How many nights did you stay out?

41023How would I stop this? 41023 I said,''What have_ you_ done to get rid of him?''

41023What happened then?
41023What''s all this about, Crooks?

41023Why is she crying now?
41023Why make all this fuss?
41023Why on a doorstep?
41023Why should you think it would make any difference to us?
41023Why?
41023Will not trade union conditions be observed?
41023Will you? 41023 Wo n''t the missus let you?"
41023Would Mr. Crooks come at once?
41023Yes,I said,"but do n''t you know the new kind of comfort the Imperialists have found for you?
41023You can imagine the feeling when, after walking your boots off, a man says to you, as he jingles sovereigns in his pocket,''Why do n''t you work?'' 41023 You know Poplar?"
41023You want, then, to base out- relief, like an old- age pension, on the Living Wage principle?
41023''Do I get it for nothing?
41023''Do n''t yer know I has ter take it for me health?
41023''Ow would you like to get a ship, an''go out to sea an''fish for''addicks to sell for tuppence in foggy weather like this?"
41023''The missioner said,"Are you not a miserable sinner?"
41023''Why should I care about the woman''s rent?
41023A widow has lost her property-- will Mr. Crooks see her righted?
41023All well and good; but why is the question not put to other politicians and public men?
41023And how were the fourteen millions spent?
41023And looking up into my face, he asked,''Who is yer, guv''nor?''
41023Another time a man got up, and after reading out a list of parsons who had been sentenced asked me what I had to say to that?
41023Are n''t they?
41023At the close of the next week he was asked after pay- time--"Did the missus meet you last week?"
41023At the end of the third week a fellow- workman whispered:"What time are you going home, Will?"
41023But are you going to put dead birds before living men?
41023But he had often heard it asked when a poor man was standing:"Who is finding your money?"
41023But how could you pay three shillings a week out of that for the rent of our one room and then you and the wife live on the rest?''
41023But what did Crooks do?
41023Crooks?"
41023Crooks?"
41023Do all mothers have to cry before they can get bread for their children?"
41023Do you know the Ten Commandments?"
41023Do you know what I remember about you?
41023Do you know what that means?
41023Do you mean to say that I, a working man, am offered something for nothing?''
41023Do you think the working man gets a day off to see his sons play cricket in the public parks?
41023Do you think this system of constant starvation would be tolerated for a day if women had the vote?"
41023Does not that involve an obligation on the State to take temptation out of their way?"
41023Does the Government prefer grouse- shooting to finding work for honest men?
41023Does this mean you are going to leave Poplar?
41023Further, why not try a scheme of afforestation on some portion of these Crown lands, which, after all, were the lands of the people?
41023Have you ever lived in a family where the slices have to be counted, and where every child could eat twice as much as its allowance?
41023He said to me quite bluntly,''Are you not a miserable sinner?''
41023He writes his name, puts his hand in his pocket, and asks how much?
41023Here are some characteristic dialogues:--"Well, my boy, what are you here for?"
41023How are we going to train our men and women workers to take on the responsibilities of regulating their own lot in a better manner?
41023How came it that a working man like Crooks was able to give his whole time to public work?
41023How was it?"
41023How would the College fare now?
41023How?
41023I''ve known a man say,''Which way shall I go to- day?''
41023If it''s only cheapness you want, why do n''t you set up the lethal chamber for the old people?
41023If so, please give up Parliament, for who have we to look to for help if you go away?"
41023Is n''t it scandalous?
41023It ran:-- Dear Teacher,--Will you allow my little girls to come home at half- past three?
41023It was on the Terrace he overheard a Conservative Member ask a Liberal:--"Are you in favour of this Bill?"
41023It''s so filling, is n''t it, when you''re hungry?"
41023Meanwhile, what are our children to do for bread?''
41023Nothing to pay?''
41023One of the little girls came running up to me in the playground the other day, exclaiming:''Oh, Mr. Crooks, what do you think?
41023See that champagne glass on the piano?
41023See?
41023So he went up to him and said:"Well, mate, what''s amiss?"
41023Something of the kind has been done in Ireland; why not in England?
41023Talk about the fierce light that beats upon a throne, what is it to the fierce light turned upon a Labour representative?
41023That bright- faced lad of twelve-- why is he here?
41023The Committees found themselves asking, What was the use of organising work for the unemployed when there were no means of paying wages?
41023The Inspector:--You rely on Mr. Chaplin''s circular?
41023The coal- man crying coals in the street all in vain, one morning hails him in passing:--"Wot''s wrong with people this morning, Mr. Crooks?
41023The new- comer said to himself,"I wonder whether you would soon get over it if you had been taken from your mother and parted from a young brother?"
41023Those"luxuries for paupers"down at Poplar, about which the world was to hear so much, what were they?
41023Was it at the University?
41023Was it by taking a double first at Oxford or Cambridge that he would turn out a great law- maker, or was it by constant contact with humanity?
41023Was the Act, so hardly won, to fail on its first trial?
41023Was this Bill of theirs only introduced to kill time-- to wait until the birds were big enough to be shot?
41023What are you supposed to be here for?"
41023What did Bony do?
41023What do you expect them to become?
41023What do_ you_ think?
41023What else can we do but try to keep the bodies and souls of these poor people together in times of trade depression and cold weather?"
41023What good can you expect to do with such men?
41023What have you to say to facts like these?
41023What is the result?
41023What is there to giggle at?
41023What kind of food was it that Poplar dared to give to the poor?
41023What of them?
41023What sort of citizens of this great Empire City will they make?
41023What will you do?"
41023What_ did_ Dickens do?
41023When we asked"Why?"
41023Where can I earn a bob?"
41023Where shall I look for work to- day?
41023Who am I to deserve it?...
41023Who is he?
41023Who knows but what it is God''s will that we should do it again?
41023Why ca n''t she get bread?
41023Why can I always get the truth from the poor, who so often deceive you parsons?
41023Why could n''t we have had a gentleman for mayor like Morton?
41023Why did they not discover and report these matters years ago?
41023Why do I say pay pensions through the Poor Law?
41023Why should the authority that looks after workhouses for the old and infirm be entrusted with the task of training the young?
41023With what result?
41023Wot''s the use of talking to us about sacrifices when we ca n''t make both ends meet as it is?"
41023Would he come again?
41023Yes, but where?
41023Your missus been at you?"
41023_ A._--Tell me what you would do-- leave them to starve on the streets?
41023_ Q._--I ask you to show me any authority for a grant continuously of, say, ten shillings a week to these old people?
41023_ Q._--I suggest, is it not a dangerous doctrine for local authorities to exceed their statutory powers?
41023_ Q._--Is not that rather a dangerous doctrine?
41023_ Q._--To other places than Poplar?
41023gentleman please speak in English?"
41023he cried;"ai n''t I talked to him at the Causeway here many a time?"
41023the floor fallen in?
41023to their names?
61647Am I a prisoner?
61647And I?
61647And what shall I do with this silver if I have neither house nor land?
61647But could you tell me the way to my countrymen''s ships, on the sea coast?
61647But how shall we know if he is from God?
61647Did I not warn you that I knew William?
61647Did you ever hear of a king being drowned?
61647Do they take me for an Englishman,said he,"with their dreams?
61647Do you leave me nothing?
61647Do you think that I have nothing else to do but to conquer kingdoms for you?
61647Do you think they will fight?
61647Do you wish then to be more than a saint?
61647Dost thou remember?
61647For whom are you?
61647Have you not coffers of gold and silver filled with the bones of the dead?
61647How can men who possess such palaces make such efforts to conquer our miserable hovels?
61647How old do you suppose I am, uncle?
61647If he asked thee only to follow his counsels, wouldst thou obey?
61647Indeed, sir king,said the earl,"and could I not send you the heads of the destroyers?"
61647Is any quarter given?
61647Is my son dead or overthrown, or so wounded that he can not help himself?
61647It is not from the king, then, that you obtain everything?
61647King,cried Godwin,"how comes it that at the slightest remembrance of your brother, you always look so fiercely at me?
61647My lord,he said,"of what use is it to keep your news from us?
61647No doubt he is our lord,they said;"but is it not enough for him that we should pay his taxes?
61647Sir king,said Wat Tyler,"do you see those men yonder?"
61647The Lord who gave me my children, can give me others,rejoined Edward;"but who can give me back a father?"
61647To whom shall I surrender?
61647What ails you?
61647What are the English laws to us?
61647What do you, my friends?
61647What does such a brother deserve?
61647What has become of the king''s son?
61647What have you done?
61647What is that?
61647What is your name?
61647What matters that?
61647Where is Earl Tostig, son of Godwin?
61647Where is my cousin, the Prince of Wales? 61647 Where is the archbishop?"
61647Wherefore?
61647Who are you?
61647Who has done this?
61647Who is the warrior with such a proud tongue?
61647Why are you so bold with me, my lord, earl?
61647Why do you cause me to be thus guarded?
61647Why do you discuss together?
61647Why so?
61647Would you have me ruin my kingdom?
61647You are aware of your rights,he said to the young prince,"do you wish to become king?"
61647You think?
61647And what does he offer to my noble ally, King Harold, son of Sigurd?"
61647At the same instant Malise, earl of Strathern, was heard to exclaim,"What need have we of this stranger?
61647Do they think I am one of those idiots who abandon their course or their affairs because an old woman chances to dream or sneeze?
61647Do you not know how trade languished in this country?
61647Do you not see banners and pennants flying in the valley?"
61647Do you take me for a traitor?"
61647Does he wish me to send her body to him?"
61647Geoffrey,"cried the king,"what has your unhappy father done to you that you should thus make a target of him for your arrows?"
61647O king, why do you allow him to retire thus safe and sound?"
61647Remember that it is we who have placed these tribes in your hands, and thence arise?
61647Richard angrily exclaimed one day;"Am I your king or your prisoner?"
61647The king shifted the question:"Will you,"he asked the assembly of prelates,"swear to maintain the ancient customs of the realm?"
61647Was it an act of treachery, and did he himself cause King Edward to be informed of the bargain which he had concluded?
61647What are you here for?"
61647When Langton read aloud the claims of the barons, John angrily exclaimed,"And why do they not also ask for my crown?
61647Where should we go, if we should lose our country?"
61647Would you thus depart and leave the good city of Paris?
61647You are my children in God; can a son sit in judgment on his father?
61647You know how many burdens they have already borne for you?
61647after so many pardons and declarations by the Parliament?"
61647and what other brother should we have if we lost him?"
61647exclaimed the duke,"ought I to let our brother die of thirst?
61647he exclaimed,"do you bear in mind against whom you are going to fight?
61647inquired Fitzurse,"from the Pope or from the king?"
61647said Henry to Roger Bigod;"do you not know that I could order all your corn to be destroyed?"
61647said he to the archer,"what had I done to you that you should have attempted my life?"
61647sire and noble king, what would you do?
61647{ 167}"From whom do you hold your appointment as archbishop?"
61647{ 168} His cross- bearer alone had not fled"Where is the traitor?"
61647{ 264}"What have you done?"
46690''And they would have been taken from the burning river?'' 46690 ''And was there anything else worthy of notice?''
46690''Have n''t''ee heard it, yer honour? 46690 ''However cud''ee have said that, Tom?''
46690''Most remarkable,''said the gentleman;''and can you tell me what caused the darkness?'' 46690 ''Very well; then, tell me, did you see a great bird fly over London, so large as to hide the light of the sun with its wings?''
46690''You really mean it?'' 46690 A real, live badger?"
46690And are there piskies now?
46690And so say you all?
46690And the man?
46690And your verdict is that the cask of brandy, seized in the Queen''s name, is brackish?
46690But where is meadow- close?
46690But where?
46690Ded''ee ever hear tell ov a man up to Lunnon who slept with a badger?
46690Ded''ee ever hear th''story of Smiler''s cat? 46690 Did Brother John patent the process?"
46690Do you mean that a preacher of the Gospel over- drives his horse?
46690Do''ee miss her, Bill?
46690Dolly Pentreath? 46690 Going Church- town, art a?"
46690Had anybody got anything belonging to her?
46690Have it your own way,said Guy;"but would n''t some other place do just as well?"
46690How be gettin''on, Jim, without the ould woman?
46690How can all these things have happened if Old Artful never crossed the Tamar?
46690How do you account for this uncommon piety in a cat?
46690How far?
46690How is it that I''ve got all the scads?
46690I was asked by a woman on leaving the house of a patient the other day what the matter was? 46690 Is it nearly full?"
46690Is that story in print?
46690Is this genuine, or only make- up?
46690It''s there all the same, and the sea has voices and prophecies for them which we landsmen miss; and why not? 46690 Lonely, s''poase?"
46690May I give the order?
46690Never mind me: we can afford it, caan''t us, old''un?
46690Or two?
46690Say an hour?
46690So say you all?
46690Stranger?
46690Thank''ee kindly, but what be un vur?
46690The man treated me as an equal, and played the host, and how could I tip him?
46690Three of us?
46690Tithe pig, es et? 46690 Want to see Farmer?
46690Well, then, Tom Trebilcock? 46690 Well?"
46690What Act of Parliament is so effective as a feeling of reverence consecrated by centuries? 46690 What became of the notes?"
46690What do you want here, my little man?
46690What''s the matter, Missus?
46690What''s up?
46690Where to?
46690Where''s home?
46690Why not?
46690Why would you rather not?
46690Will you be long?
46690Yes, and which is the way?
46690You doan''t know our Passun, s''poase? 46690 You''d like to see what''s to be seen, s''poase?"
46690''And what did you hear?''
46690''Doan''t''ee knaw me?
46690''Who ar''ee?''
46690A youngster was posting a letter in Sydney, New South Wales, and a friend of the family asked,"Where''s that letter going, sonnie?"
46690After a time, we captured a few syllables, and the Bookworm wrote down phonetically a conversation with two voices only--"Say- yu, whatkoorarta?"
46690After that we dropped the''Softie,''and re- named him''Amen- who- shied- that- boot?''
46690All of''m?"
46690An ordinary conversation is like this--"Where are you going?"
46690And ded''m come?
46690And did you hear anything else?''
46690And do you mean to tell me that''bad laws,''forsooth, made you smuggle the books?
46690And if the Gulf Stream was n''t America, what was?
46690And then the under- feeding?
46690And what did the little man do?
46690And what was the Cornu- Breton link?"
46690And when the vision passed in the broad valley of the Teign, he asked simply--"Is there more of this?"
46690And why not?
46690And why not?
46690But do people believe in them?"
46690Did he ever tire of looking at the sea?
46690Did you ever catch one, Master Miller?"
46690Everybody asks his neighbour,"Have you bathed?"
46690Guy asked Mrs. Penaluna whether she thought that the women inside would come out alive?
46690Guy asked the Bookworm how long he thought it would take him to pick up the dialect?
46690Guy wanted to know why fishers are always called"poor,"and why sentimental tears were shed over their hard lot?
46690Had deponent ever seen a nuggie?
46690Have n''t''ee heard that London was as black as night at noon- day?''
46690He may get some, who knows?
46690He spoke slowly, and it came out like this--"Say you, what coor art thou?"
46690He was keen as ever on collecting relics of the late King, and inquired if the holy grail was yet on view at the castle?
46690I wonder how often she was before her betters for assault and battery, and using profane language in an unknown tongue?"
46690If it''s England where the British flag waves, then is n''t it America where American water runs?
46690If this was the legitimate play, what could the other have been?
46690Mr. Chamberlain could have done no better, could he?
46690No?
46690Now, what did the piskie do?
46690Said he:"We doan''t want to go coorting, do us?
46690Said she:"You knaw, s''poase, ef I do marry agen, boy Tom''ll have the property?"
46690Says the coastguard officer,"What is it, my men?"
46690Search?
46690So he slept and woke again, and asked,"Is it nearly full?"
46690St. Patrick had driven the snakes into the sea, and why not the saints drive the piskies out of Cornwall?
46690The common furze which blooms perpetually has, on that account, got mixed up with kissing; and when a girl is asked,"When is kissing out of season?"
46690The first question asked about a stranger is, what does he, or she, look like?
46690The question was, What shall we do with the saints?
46690The vish was in the zay, an''th''wind was in the clouds, and what else was there in this world worth looking at?
46690The woman was sweetly placid, and asked Guy if he was in a hurry?
46690Then he:"Why, es that so?
46690Then where were the Navy League, and the Coast Defence Committee, and Mr. Balfour''s great speech in the House of Commons?
46690Then, tell me, did you eat some whitepot at Smithfield Market?''
46690There were exploration societies in Italy and Greece, and why not in Cornwall, wherein there is a lost history and a lost language to recover?
46690They do say----""How do we get there?"
46690This was"Uncle Tom"and"Uncle Tom''s post,"and the men, in passing, would hail him,"How ar''ee to- day, Uncle Tom?"
46690Tin was known in the days of Moses, and where could it have come from but here?
46690Wad''ee, Tom?"
46690Was there anything we would like to see or hear about?
46690Was there ever such luck?
46690Well, that''s fact, edn''t et?
46690What could be more dramatic in a cottage with only a fireplace, a wash- tray, and a stool in it for accessories?
46690What did Murray say?
46690What do I caal''em?
46690What if his faith should fail now?
46690What is it, all of it, from the Tamar to the Land''s End?
46690What next, I wonder?
46690What was the good of guide- books to fellows on their rambles?
46690What were the popular stories with which you sent children sobbing to bed, about the Great Napoleon?"
46690When Arthur first opened his eyes upon this rock, what impression do you think he received?
46690Where on earth have we been living?"
46690Which shall us giv''m?"
46690White roses and orchids are consecrated to other illustrious persons, and why not blackberries to John Wesley?
46690Who cared how many yards he was from anywhere, or how many miles it was from one place to another?
46690Who had a better title to them?
46690Why not?
46690Why not?
46690Why should n''t his own mother''s father have been a deserter from the king''s ship, and been saved by Dolly Pentreath?
46690Why should they be?
46690Wonder if they did n''t; but why this high- falutin?"
46690Would Heaven fail him now?
46690Would they like to look into the crock, and see if a man was boiling there?
46690Would''ee like to see the badger?"
46690my man; which is the way to Church- town?"
46690why did they pitch upon this place?
6599And board himself?
6599And you are from America? 6599 Arrah, what would he be shot for?"
6599But there is a great deal of disturbance, is there not?
6599Come now, what did he do?
6599Do you,said Mr. Corscadden,"want your land at what it was 118 years ago?
6599Has he been shot at yet?
6599Have the laboring class any garden ground to their homes?
6599Have you a small farm?
6599Have you, sir, restored what you have robbed?
6599He let you gather sticks in his woods, then?
6599How can you pay it?
6599How long, Lord, are we to endure the cruelty of this man?
6599How much did he get for digging a grave?
6599How were wages going?
6599Is it Mr. Wynne, ma''am? 6599 Now,"said Mr. Corscadden to him,"what do you want?"
6599Some people now want a man to work for a shilling and board himself, but how could a man do that? 6599 Was there ever any help allowed to a man in building a new house?"
6599Well, that''s not much?
6599What have you left for yourself?
6599What made people dislike him so?
6599Where are the hapless people, doomed by John Adair''s decree? 6599 Where inside of the four seas of Ireland will you get his aiquil?
6599Why did they murder him?
6599Why did you not refuse to pay these increased rents when they were put upon you first? 6599 Why, what makes you think him such a good man?"
6599Without food of course?
6599Would his name appear?
6599''s cry at Fontenoy, will the enemy be able to countervail the Queen''s damage?
6599( Was Baal ever the same as Tommuz, the Adonis of Scripture?)
6599As I left the train at Tandragee she laid her faded glove on my arm and whispered,"It is their duty to be content in their own station, is it not?"
6599Asked my friend if the other side had not any tales of suffered atrocities to tell?
6599At one station where we stopped, one respectable- looking man asked of another,"Have you got anything to do yet, Robert?"
6599But where are the rest?
6599Did he think that increasing the hunger pain would make him more thoughtful, more orderly?
6599Did he, in his own consciousness, think he was doing right in his system of fines?
6599Does the Gospel mean brother to war against brother for the possession of his field?
6599For whom did they take me?
6599Forever the world is saying"Lord, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here?"
6599Had they any objection?
6599He then took up the case of one tenant, James Gilray, who waited on him to enquire,"What are you going to do with me?"
6599He was fined L12, and would my lady do anything?
6599How could they help themselves, I''d like to know?
6599How do you know the price?
6599How many deaths do these timid deer suffer?
6599How many more would leave the island that has no place for them, if they only had the means?
6599How much have you?"
6599How, then, could they possibly be able to pay back rent in March, 1881?
6599I am content with mine, why not they with theirs?
6599If he could not help fining the people until he fined off the most of their wages, were they to blame for refusing to work for him?
6599If they have not both, what business have they to set up for gentry?
6599Is not the land desolate without inhabitant, where then is the over- population?"
6599Is the soul of the beggar more dear to God as a dwelling place than these lofty temples?
6599Is there not something very wrong when such things can be?
6599It is delightfully sleepy, swarming with little shops with some little things to sell; but where are the buyers?
6599Looking for what-- for the slowly approaching time of peace, plenty and prosperity, of tardy justice and kindly appreciation?
6599Old lady--"Making money by it, do you mean?"
6599Old lady--"Why are Irish people so turbulent?"
6599Popular opinion thinks of them as Carleton''s hedge scholar expressed himself,"You a gentleman?
6599Still when the question was asked squarely,"Are there no reasons for wishing for reform of the land laws?"
6599The captain enquires,"Is that passenger no better yet?"
6599The great wonder to me is where the laborers who produce all this neatness and beauty live?
6599The landlord thinks he is doing no wrong, for, is he not actually charging less than Lord So- and- so, or Sir Somebody or other?
6599They might do this, or this, or this, and it would be profitable, but where are the means to take the first step?
6599Was it in any part of this building that the naughty lady watched for her lover?
6599Was the Government right in taking his part when it had neither eye nor ear for his people''s complaint?
6599What is the proposal now by the tenants and agitators?
6599What kind of a system is it that produces such scenes, and such feelings?
6599When he asked me pleasantly if I had come as a friend, I thought at once of the Bethlehem elders to Samuel,"Comest thou peaceably?"
6599Where are the small farmers on whom the high rent presses so heavily?
6599Where are they?
6599Where is the freedom of contract of which so much is said?
6599Who knows?
6599Why allow the system to be introduced into Tyrone?
6599Why do they paint all the steamers black in this green Erin of ours?
6599Why in the world should I remember him?
6599Why should they join the Land League?
6599Will another Father Mathew arise?
6599Will she miss the clansmen of Athol, Breadalbane and Mar?
6599Will the exterminating lords who must have hunting grounds at all hazards come to the front with squadrons of deer or battalions of rabbits?
6599Would he have done better if he had been suddenly brought to change places with his serf?
6599Would my lady send out their two daughters to America and place them in decent places?
6599Would they disturb her in possession?
6599the answer was,"We would not go quite so far as that?"
60415''The gentleman,''said the stranger,''that advertised in the_ Times_ newspaper?'' 60415 ''You hear what the officer says?''
60415Alderman Kelly: What can you do besides writing poetry? 60415 Coroner: Do you call them peaceable subjects?
60415M. Ude: Vell, my dear Sare Rojer, vat is all dis to me? 60415 Mr. Dyer asked what was meant by''the tiger?''
60415Sir D. Scott: Chained down? 60415 Sir D. Scott: How do you know he is here?
60415The Lord Mayor( to the prisoner): Did you acknowledge that you deserted? 60415 The Lord Mayor: And are you not weary of so harassing a life?
60415The Lord Mayor: And what have you been doing with yourself since you deserted? 60415 The Lord Mayor: And why did n''t you stay in Cornwall?
60415The Lord Mayor: And without sustaining any injury? 60415 The Lord Mayor: By how many Courts Martial have you been tried?
60415The Lord Mayor: Did I hear you rightly? 60415 The Lord Mayor: Is it possible that this mere girl, for she can not be more than sixteen or seventeen years of age, performed the duties of a seaman?
60415The Lord Mayor: Is the account of the romantic pursuit of the person she is said to be attached to correct? 60415 The Lord Mayor: Tell me, are you a sober man?
60415The Lord Mayor: Why did you desert from your regiment? 60415 The Lord Mayor: Why were you flogged?
60415The magistrate asked Mr. Papera if he kept these legs ready made in his establishment, and if in that state they were stolen by the prisoner? 60415 The magistrate inquired what sort of legs they were?
60415Who, he should like to know, were the maids who swept out the rooms of the British Museum? 60415 ''How long have you been in England?'' 60415 ''Is that all?'' 60415 ''Madam,''says the gallant monarch,''my glove for courtiers, but_ my cheek for ladies_; may I_ be permitted to touch yours_?'' 60415 ''Seven?'' 60415 ''Well,''said the King,''then, I will judge between you, like Solomon; here''( turning the Seal round and round),''now do you cry heads or tails?'' 60415 ''What do you expect to make by going down?'' 60415 ''What was that?'' 60415 --Landlord:''Did they eat of it twice?'' 60415 --Landlord:''Fried sole, 2_s._; shrimp sauce, 1_s._; 3_s._ Did they make any remark about that?'' 60415 --Landlord:''Mock turtle, 3_s._ Did they make any remark about it?'' 60415 --Landlord:''Mutton, 5_s._; potatoes, 1_s._; French beans, 5_s._; rather early for French beans, is n''t it?'' 60415 --Landlord:''Soup; very well; what sort was it?'' 60415 And Bobby said,''Do they serve the people for nought? 60415 Buy a broom? 60415 Buy a broom?

60415He also objected to this grant because there was £ 10,000 of it, and more, paid away in salaries, and to whom?
60415How came you to know so much about a theatre?
60415How de devil can I tell veder black game, or vite game, or red game go up to de dining- room?
60415How did the people amuse themselves?
60415I asked,''Could I not mind my work?''
60415If so, where are our Revenue cruisers, or, what are they doing?
60415In Berlin, Vienna, Moscow, or St. Petersburgh?
60415In Paris, Brussels, or Amsterdam?
60415In Rome, Naples, Madrid, or even Lisbon?
60415Is it true that she went to America after the captain who was said to be her sweetheart?
60415Is not this a bad job?
60415Is there nobody here Will bid any more?
60415It was well known that the ladies exercised an important influence in the State, and why should it not be properly exercised?
60415Members have some ulterior views?
60415Might not the champion of some old lady charge him with corrupt motives in excluding her?
60415On being told they had been removed,''By whose order?''
60415One, and one only, of the brooms is invariably held in the right hand, and this is elevated with the sharp cry of''Buy a Broom?''
60415Or is it, like the money thou dost take,_ Down on the nail_?"
60415Squeers, I believe, sir?''
60415Squeers?''
60415There was a day when the Reformers came to present themselves before the King and Bobby;[17] and Billy[18] said unto Bobby,''Whence comest thou?''
60415They have only one shrill twittering note,''Buy a broom?''
60415We should be glad to know who are the advisers of this misguided lady?
60415Were the people innocent who used the murderous weapons, stilettos, bludgeons, and lances, such as you have seen?
60415What was legitimate trade doing?
60415Why did you come to London?
60415Why how came you to know there was such a person in a theatre?
60415Why should the beneficial influence of a virtuous and enlightened mother( a laugh) not be exerted over her son who had a seat in Parliament?
60415Would anomalies so odious have happened in Dublin or Edinburgh?
60415and gallant member had said that he did not see any harm in the measure; but would the matter end here?

48055Do you remember being here with Tom Sutton on such a night? 48055 Do you take me for an Archæological Conference?
48055Have they no trade union?
48055How was that?
48055I asked her, my Queen, what was the price?

48055Oui, madame,says he,"what address?"
48055Price of what? 48055 That''s very kind,"said I;"will you take a chair, or a tumbler?"
48055They''ve trouble enough to keep theirsels in work; who''d keep them if they went on strike?
48055Two dinners? 48055 Well,"answered the Spirit, carelessly sticking his sword into my nose and sitting on it,"what has age to do with genius?
48055Well,continued the Spirit,"do you think that a man who could scarcely write his own name could write_ Hamlet_?"
48055Well,said Roderick,"and who said that Shakespeare wrote nothing?
48055Well?
48055What is that?
48055What time do they kick off?
48055What was it you said about a kiss?
48055What we call_ triste, hein_?
48055What''s the matter, old chap? 48055 What?"

48055William of Hawthornden?
48055Work?
48055Would madame deign to give the address to which I must send them? 48055 Yes, and pay the price I''m asked; if I paid twice as much, would the fishermen get the money?"
48055You would not care to do it yourself, I presume?
48055A chance for the wailing women and the weeping bairns?
48055A chance then for life?
48055Again I ask you, Who was the man?"
48055And again:--_ My life hath in this line some interest._ What if the true cryptogram were concealed in this strangely emphasised and deeply noted line?
48055And furthermore, who told you that Drummond was born in''85?"
48055And in the next:-- What can mine own praise to mine own self bring?
48055And what is''t but mine own when I praise_ thee_?
48055And what pay sends willing men to face these risks?"
48055And who but a Scotsman, I would like you to tell me, could have furnished the local colour and the Scottish character to the tragedy of_ Macbeth_?"
48055And,"You heard how Jones''s two boys went down in the pleasure yacht?
48055Are n''t all these South of England watering- places slow as compared with Blackpool?"
48055Ay, I had noted his gushing praise of Burns and Walter Scott; and, by the way, what was it he said about Shakespeare''s visit to Edinburgh?
48055Beneath this turban what anxieties?
48055Beneath yon burnoose what heartaches and desires?
48055Bread and milk?
48055But the picture of the rescue, is not that glorious?
48055But-- what was this?
48055Can not you guess it even now?"
48055Cloud?
48055Contango?
48055Could n''t they get him to reserve his funeral service for his own graveyard?
48055Did_ she_ intercede to have them preserved?
48055Do n''t you feel well?"
48055Do they enjoy the painted and sculptured masterpieces presented to their admiration?
48055Do they really amuse themselves?
48055Do you never give thanks?
48055For what country has such work- houses, such gin- palaces, such company promoters, such Sunday clothes, and such respectability?"
48055God sends youth and health and beauty; what devil brings sickness, grief, and decay?
48055Had he been to Edinburgh too?
48055Has not another poet said,''He was not of an age, but for all time''?
48055How do they touch the common people?
48055How do you spell it?"
48055How is it that in the years that were earlier, I saw only fêtes and picnics?
48055How many of the Slum- scum come?
48055How to get at the hearts of them?
48055How?"
48055I had decided to speak to him no more, but an undefined hope to get the better of his sauciness prompted me to ask,"What age may that be?"
48055I knew only two or three English phrases then, such as"I am pretty and vell; how vos you?"

48055The public museums and picture- galleries are very fine institutions, but how much do they affect or brighten the lives of the mass?
48055Under all this sartorial medley of frock- coats, jackets, mantles, capes, cloth, silk, satins, rags, what truth?
48055WAS SHAKESPEARE A SCOTSMAN?
48055Was I brave enough to join the venture and risk the after- part?
48055Was mine host, then, of a literary turn?
48055We have paid homage to the celebrated dead: what about those that have done their duty and have received neither fame nor monument?
48055We would prefer to take a walk until your cornerman is through: at what time will the Nautch Girls appear?"
48055What could these lines mean?
48055What do we know of Life, we that seek it in the perfumed mire and corruption of the West End?
48055What do we know of work and trade, we that scramble for gold dust in London?
48055What if it were left to me to solve the mystery?
48055What is this Life at all, and what its purport?
48055Where are sweeter woods than those of Epping or Hadley?
48055Where such glades as at Bushey or Windsor?
48055Where when"she"is finished?
48055Where will"she"be a hundred years hence?
48055Who knows?
48055Why do they stand it?"
48055Zola?"
48055and how often?
48055and smelt so?
48055and"What then, sir?"
48055asked my elder brother John in French--"_c''est tres quoi?_""Respectable,"repeated my father.
48055asked the gentleman who had looked interested;"have n''t they a pier at Blackpool?"
48055cried the Spirit,"never heard of''Little Jack Horner''?
48055eh?
48055gentlemen of the Spiers& Pond and money- making world, is n''t it a brave picture to think of?
48055he said,"or workmen''s dwellings?"
48055how can their women and children live?"
48055how to blot out their passions, spites, and rancours, and get at their human kinship and brotherhood?
48055how to evolve the best of them?

48055replied the heavy policeman,"daunce a''Sundays?
48055was driven nearly to distraction by the loss of a mistress whom he loved more dearly than life?
48055went abroad to seek solace, and, returning after many years, married another lady?
48055what meaning?
48055what purport?
48055who knows?
7415And what was your trouble?
7415Be you feeling bad-- what be the matter?
7415Be you saying that Tory''s old Tom''s son? 7415 But if you have always lived here you must know what is said on this stone?"
7415But what could your little brother, a child of seven, do in such a place?
7415Did they fall ill at the same time?
7415He wo n''t hurt''ee; he''s starving-- don''t you see his bones sticking out? 7415 How can I go on?
7415How do you think these swedes came here?
7415How many bells have you got on your sheep-- it sounds as if you had a great many?
7415How would it have been if you had said,''Catch him, Bob,''or whatever his name was?
7415Is it true?
7415The girl brought them for me to mend, and I said,''Leave them and I''ll do them when I''ve time''--how did I know he wanted them in a hurry? 7415 Two hunderd ewes,"he said,"and a hunderd more to come-- what d''you think of that?"
7415Well, what did you do it for-- what was your object in running here?
7415Well, will you come a little way on the road with us?
7415Well?
7415What are you doing here, shepherd?
7415What are you doing here?
7415What are you here for-- what''s wrong with''ee?
7415What be his name?
7415What be looking at?
7415What be saying?
7415What be this?
7415What be wrong with master to- day?
7415What be you talking about?
7415What be you wanting, Watch-- a drink or a swim?
7415What did you want?
7415What dost mean, keeper, by a year or so?
7415What has he got in his mouth?
7415What sort of a dog do you call that?
7415What would father say?
7415What''s that you say?
7415What, did n''t he tell you about the dog?
7415Where''s Monk then?
7415Who put a stone over them-- their children?
7415Why do you ask me that?
7415Why do you tell me to do a thing for which I shall be thrashed?
7415Why, what''s wrong about it?
7415Will that dog bite, missus?
7415Yes? 7415 You knew them, I suppose?"
7415And now what could he do to save one of the two from hateful imprisonment?
7415And what be you going to do with the lambs?"
7415But apart from the fiddlededee, is the thing he states believable?
7415But how is he to know it unless he witnesses its outward beautiful signs every day and every hour on every countenance he looks upon?
7415But-- to pass to another subject-- what does the shepherd himself think or feel about it; and why does he have bells on his sheep?
7415Can you read me another?"
7415Did they imagine, she asked, that any great lady in the world with all her gold could tempt her to leave her own darling to nurse another woman''s?
7415For what use would it be to him?
7415How would he get that flock of hungry lambs out of the rape without a dog?
7415How''s he dead?"
7415Is that a right way to speak of such a thing as that?
7415Is that true?"
7415Mother, ai n''t you coming down for a bit of bread and cheese before you go to bed?''
7415Mother, where are you?''
7415Now what do you say about it?"
7415She agreed that it was, but what could she do?
7415She would tell it and would not be silenced by him: they were all dead and gone-- why should I not be told if I wanted to hear it?
7415Then one of them said,"Be you Shepherd Caleb Bawcombe?"
7415Then when the talk did seem all over, Bawcombe, ignorant of the forms, got up and said,"I beg your lordship''s pardon, but may I speak?"
7415What ailed him-- what killed him?
7415What am I to do?"
7415What be you thinking of?
7415What did the shepherd want?
7415What did they mean?
7415What had been Liddy''s after- life?
7415What secret trouble had he-- was it that his affairs were in a bad way, or was he quarrelling with his wife?
7415What was she to do in her condition, no longer to be concealed, alone and friendless in the world?
7415What, then, does it matter how they regard this common orange- coloured flower with a strong smell?
7415Whatever be I thinking of?
7415Where are they all?
7415Where be going so fast, man-- don''t''ee see we ca n''t keep up with''ee?"
7415Where be going then?--to a new place?"
7415Wherein, then, does the"Wylye bourne"differ from these others, and what is its special attraction?
7415Who be these women out so late?
7415Who were the men?
7415Who, I asked, was Mrs. Taylor?
7415Who, then, was Martha''s husband?
7415put them in the rape and no dog to help''ee?"
7415you''d hear him call,''Mother, be you upstairs?
8685And can it be possible,I asked,"that justice will not in the end be done to this unfortunate gentleman?"
8685And has he not ordered any thing to be done to my leg; no fomentation or any other thing?
8685But,said my mother,"because some of the clergy bear the character that you say they do, is that any reason that Henry should follow their example?
8685Then pray, Sir,said I,"why will you not allow me a little recreation?
8685Well, Rodney,said I to him,"what is all this dispute about, between your master and you?"
8685Well, neighbour Barnes, what did you do, did you accept his offer, or did you shew him how to do it without the wager?
8685What has he done, neighbour Barnes?
8685What is the matter, friend Barnes? 8685 Are you sure that nothing will prevent you?
8685But what shall I do, Douse?
8685But who should we get?
8685Have you any well- grounded hopes of my recovery?
8685He came in, and having sternly surveyed us, after a short pause, he said,"Pray gentlemen, what wind brought you here?"
8685He then cast his eyes towards the troop, as much as to say, will you not protect me?
8685Her answer always was, having first quoted some amiable Christian precept,"would you leave them to starve, and thus drive them to despair?
8685I begged then to know if he had any thing to urge against her father?
8685I could not help sighing, and looking doubtfully, and as he took my hand, I said,"are you sure that you will come?
8685I demanded how they could injure me?
8685I demanded if he knew any thing in the slightest degree affecting the character of the young lady?
8685I demanded, why so?
8685I obeyed;"Pray, Sir,"said he,"what were you laughing at?"
8685I then demanded, whether, if she were, fit to be held up by him as a pattern for his daughters, she were likely to degrade his son as his wife?
8685I think I hear some of my more sceptical or prejudiced readers ask, could these be really the feelings of this man?
8685If you should resign, why not stay at home with your wife, and attend to your business?
8685Is this the man who only two short months before proposed to suckle his child with his setter?
8685It may be said, if you are really so, why not rest satisfied with the pleasure of knowing it?
8685It will be asked by some, how comes it that_ all_ the public press has been induced to represent you as a monster of this description?
8685It will be asked by some, how did the labourers relish this extra toil and double work?
8685Mrs. Tinker asked whether I and Mr. Waddington had joined in this toast?
8685My eldest sister used sometimes to reply, rather petulantly,"Why do you not invite this lady to come and see us?
8685Perhaps you will see him, madam?"
8685Strip him of his estates and his riches, what would he be fit for?
8685Tell me honestly whether, if he were left to provide for himself, you do not think he would be upon the parish books in a fortnight?"
8685Upon which I said to the man,"Did you not make a complaint to the magistrates?
8685Was Mr. Hunt not justified in selling his corn for the best price that he could obtain for it?
8685Was there ever such paltering, ever such base and stupid attempts to delude rational beings?
8685Was this really the case, Mr._ Justice Best_?
8685Well,"added he,"what says Mr. Grant, will he come?"
8685What can you expect if you go into another troop?
8685What excuse shall I make?"
8685What say you to this?"
8685What says Bob Clare?"
8685Whether no means could have been devised to settle the point in dispute, without resorting to arms, and sacrificing the best blood of both countries?
8685Why do you sound your own trumpet, and endeavour to blazon it forth to the world?
8685Would you like to see him the tutor to the son of some nobleman?
8685and what then?
8685this small indulgence?"
8685what enchanted castle are we come to at last?"
8685what is it that has ruffed your temper so?"
8685what is the cause of this dereliction?
8685will you not assist to get me out of this dilemma?
50508''Ave I got to begin again?

50508Can nothing be done?

50508Did he hit anything?
50508Did he hit anything?
50508Did n''t I tell ye?
50508Did you see him shoot before the accident?
50508Did you see him shoot_ after_ the accident?

50508How dare you come to me and tell me that I looked like your wife? 50508 How much do you charge for a plateful?"
50508How much do you want?
50508I suppose you run straight now and keep clear of liquor?
50508Knew''i m? 50508 Lord Charles,"he said,"have you any influence with General Stewart?
50508Man, man,said my friend, with his picked elocution,"do you know what you are doing?

50508Me? 50508 No?
50508Or that I have never in my life asked a man for a vote?
50508Sent back?
50508So grub is food, is it? 50508 Sure, how would I know that?
50508Tell me,I said,"how many teeth you have left?
50508The secretary, sir? 50508 Then,"I said,"have you not observed that every Chinese dynasty has been founded by a successful general?"
50508What are you going to do with it?
50508What do you mean, sir?
50508What do you mean?
50508What do you want boiler- plates for?

60895He said he was desired to hand him that paper, at the same time handing him the copy, when the following conversation ensued: Parnell:"What is it?"
60895He walked by his side and, addressing him,{ 300} said,"Mr. Parnell, I believe?"
60895He was so careful in this regard that one day I said:"What is it you shut up in that room, Mr. Gladstone, when I come to see you?"
60895How did Wifie find out I had grown a beard?
60895How does Queenie intend letting her husband know how she is?
60895How is your dear aunt?
60895How would those labourers and cottier tenants vote?
60895I answered,"Dear me, who was this charming lady?
60895I burst out passionately,"Why does it matter more now?
60895I can not at present give you the exact hour, but would it be too much to ask you to remain at home after three o''clock?
60895I had told him that anyhow I would go up; but, as my lover said, what would be the use of it?
60895I in my English ignorance used to say:"Why did they not go into the workhouse or to neighbours?"
60895I remember my brother- in- law saying casually to my sister Emma, who was giving a dinner party that evening:"Who is Katie to go in with, milady?"
60895If you think I had best not wait, will you telegraph?
60895In what way do we make you weaker?
60895In what way shall we be stronger to injure you?
60895Is it dangerous?
60895Is it true that Captain O''Shea is in Paris, and, if so, when do you expect his return?
60895Is n''t it alive?"
60895Is that so?
60895Is there any address you could get nearer home, so that you would not have to go so far?
60895May I leave them at Eltham?
60895Morley said to me:''The people must be made to wake up a bit; ca n''t you{ 203} do anything to stir them up?''"
60895O''Shea?"
60895O''Shea?"
60895O''Shea?"
60895Parnell used to say to me as we walked away to the golden harbour,"Is it really like this, my Queen, or as we see it at noon?"
60895Parnell would then say reproachfully,"Oh, Queenie, how can you deceive the poor dogs like that?"
60895Parnell?"
60895Queenie, my wife, you do not really think I am ill, do you?"
60895Should I remain in London or go down to you?
60895Should I urge him to come abroad with me?
60895What am I to say to her?
60895What armed policemen shall we have?
60895What cannons shall we have?
60895What do you intend to call her?
60895What do you think I had best say to it?
60895What single means shall we have, beyond the constitution, that we have not now, to work you injury?
60895What soldiers shall we have?
60895What''s the matter?
60895What''s the use?
60895When I said to Parnell,"Why not see Gladstone yourself privately, and get what you can from him, in return for the Irish vote?"
60895When she was gone, my aunt, who was breathing with difficulty, whispered as I bent down to kiss her hand,"You do believe, do you not, my Swan?"
60895Who will take your place?"
60895Why did n''t you send Mr. Parnell round?"
60895Why should I be supposed to have no other interests than Willie and my children?
60895Why should I now?"
60895Why should I?"
60895Will not your physical capacity be the same as it is now?
60895Will she mind asking for my number?
60895Will you not give her papa''s best love and innumerable kisses?
60895Will you not still have all the power of the Empire?
60895Will you not still have your troops in the country?
60895Willie or me?"
60895Would Sophie make a nice second name?
60895Would Tariff Reform ever have been a Tory election cry?
60895Would n''t you hide your head with shame if your King were so stupid as that, my Queen?"
60895Would the Tories not have enjoyed that long term of office which for years kept the question of Home Rule in abeyance?
60895Would there have been no Boer War?
60895Would you mind letting me see the''letter of warning''?"
60895and he answered:"It was an omen, I think, darling, but for whom?
60895exclaimed my husband in a horrified voice,"what do you mean?
60895what shall we do?
60895{ 106}"My dear Mrs. O''Shea,"wrote Parnell from London on the 7th of January,"will you kindly ask Captain O''Shea where he left my luggage?
60895{ 113} Did she get my three letters?
60895{ 41} CHAPTER VI CAPTAIN O''SHEA ENTERS POLITICAL LIFE"_ D''un coeur qui t''aime, Mon Dieu, qui peut troubler la tranquille paix?
8461Can you rely upon your friend, Sir,said the speaker,"as our communication will place our lives in your power?"
8461Well, how did you manage to divide these things?
8461Although they have been called your leading men, did they ever assemble you in county meeting?
8461And can you, then, believe them sincere?
8461And do you really believe, are you so besotted as to flatter yourselves, that you will escape?
8461And is this all?
8461And what has been the cause of all their hostility to me?
8461And who are these men that have been the foremost to accuse me?
8461And, ought the people to want any committee, to tell them their duty?
8461But,_ how came it to be so?_ Who_ began_ the violences?
8461But,_ how came it to be so?_ Who_ began_ the violences?
8461Can you believe, that they have any other view than merely that of securing_ a seat for the party_ in Bristol?
8461Davis?"
8461Did they give you any reason to believe that they wish to have your opinion again?
8461Did they promise you any such thing?
8461Do you believe, Gentlemen, that they will ever call you together and tell you_ now_ is the time for Reform?
8461Do you really believe, that"Where vice and cruelty go before, vengeance will not follow after?"
8461Does your conviction go no farther than this?
8461He inquired as follows--"_Pray, Sir, what day shall we have the pleasure of seeing you back again?_"I replied that it would be in about a week.
8461How did you give your vote upon that occasion?"
8461I ask,"What is there that one honest, courageous, and persevering man could not do in the House of Commons?"
8461I asked Fisher what was the amount of the bill?
8461I have heard the latter say,"d--- it, Sir, why do you not ride and head the hounds?"
8461I may be asked by some,"what has this to do with your Memoirs, or with the political history of the times"?
8461I next addressed the multitude, to inquire which of them was prepared to propose Sir John Jarvis, and which to second the proposition?
8461In a broad north country accent, he exclaimed,"Sir, are you come here to teach us our duty?"
8461In the first instance my country was in danger; she was threatened by the invasion of a foreign foe-- that was enough; what was my conduct?
8461Is he a freeman or a freeholder of the county?
8461Is there no honourable and independent man to be found in the county of Wilts, capable of sustaining such a charge?
8461It will be asked, what said the husband of the lady?
8461Mr. Trevillian, and Justice Goodford, likely men to bring about a Parliamentary Reform?
8461Pray, who are the proper men to effect it?
8461Silence being restored, the Sheriff demanded, in a very respectful tone, if I was either a freeman or a freeholder?
8461The address to the King, which Mr. Cobbett moved, was seconded by the_ Reverend Mr. Baker_,( quere, is this the Parson Baker of Botley?)
8461The amiable judge next inquired, whether I had any affidavits in answer to those filed against me on the part of the plaintiff?
8461The colonies are to France only a secondary object; and does not your Majesty already possess more than you know how to preserve?
8461The cry was, who is he?
8461The reader will observe, that the great point is, WHO BEGAN THE FIGHT?
8461Their argument was,"what have you to do with Cobbett''s quarrels-- is he not capable of defending himself?"
8461Then how could there be any damage?
8461To destroy our finances?
8461To form a coalition with some powers of the Continent?
8461To renew intestine troubles?
8461To take from France her colonies?
8461Upon his being asked by me, whether there was any boundary between Simpkins''s down and mine?
8461Was it doing nothing to compel them to expose their union to the people?
8461Was it doing nothing to get all the people together?
8461Was it doing nothing to make them exhibit themselves thus, and to knock up for ever all the humbug of party in the county?"
8461We asked if we could see the house?
8461Well then, said I, will you get a piece of plate voted to me, by a few of our friends, whom you can easily call together at a private meeting?
8461Well, and what then?
8461Well, then, do these friends allow, that the parliament are the real representatives of the people, and that they speak the people''s voice?
8461What business have_ lawyers_ with elections?
8461What does he want more than a good cause and the support of the people?
8461What is his name?
8461What was to be done?
8461What will even the impudence of the most prostituted knaves of hired writers find to say in cases like these?
8461When he came to the turnpike, at the entrance of the town, he inquired if he should drive to the Bear?
8461Why all this?
8461Why, did not the shepherd swear there wa''n''t a mite of grass for a sheep to gnaw?
8461Will they ever do it?
8461Your nation is at the highest point of prosperity; what can it hope from war?
8461what will be your feelings when you read this?
8461will you go into the Court of King''s Bench, to argue a point of law with the four Judges, against their own decision?
37848Are you Christians,said the holy man,"or heathens?"
37848But if any one knoweth not how to rule over his own house, how shall he employ his care over the church of God?
37848Have not I left all things to your disposal?
37848My father,said she,"is there any daughter that can love her father more than duty requires?
37848What is your name?
37848Who,said the boy,"instructed you to do this?"
37848Ye are,saith he,"the salt of the earth; if that the salt vanisheth away, wherein shall it be salted?
37848--"Who can advise you in this matter,"said Ulfin,"when no force will enable us to have access to her in the town of Tintagel?
37848A sword of fire is sent out against you, and who is he that shall restrain it?
37848After seven years, Ceawlin and Cutha fought against the Britons, at a place called Fethanleage[ Frethern?
37848And a little after,"Why hast thou looked upon mine incense, and upon my sacrifice, with a dishonest eye?
37848And a little after:"What is the matter that my beloved hath in my houses committed many offences?
37848And after a few words:"Who shall have pity on thee Jerusalem, or who shall be sorrowful for thee, or who shall pray for thy peace?
37848And after some few speeches,"Whoso falleth doth he not arise again, and whoso is turned away, shall he not return again?
37848And afterwards,"And the angel asked me, what dost thou see?
37848And afterwards,"Why will ye contend with me in judgment?
37848And again,"Behold our Lord of hosts will come, and who can conceive the day of his coming, and who shall endure to stand to behold him?
37848And choirs of virgins celebrate thy praise?
37848And how do ye fulfil that which followeth:"Behold I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves?"
37848And indeed, should you refuse him, what right could you plead to the crown of Britain against him?
37848And now what one of the aforesaid sort hath indeed been void of all these?
37848And shall we Christians be worse than the Jews, in refusing them mercy?
37848And therefore what holy man is there, who, moved with the narration of such a history, would not presently break out into weeping and lamentations?
37848And thus complaining, he begins his prophecy:"How long, O Lord, shall I call, and thou wilt not hear?
37848And what did he commit, whether it were adultery or murder, like to the offences of the present time?
37848And what shall adorn the city?
37848And what shall then become of you, who, as the prophet hath said, believe God only with your lips, and do not adhere to him with your hearts?
37848And which of ye hath willingly fulfilled that which next ensueth?
37848And who hath known us?
37848And who would not prefer the possession of a lesser country with liberty, to all the riches of that island in servitude?
37848And,"If the just indeed be hardly saved, where shall the wicked and sinner appear?"
37848Are not men in the course of human generation often the reverse of one another?
37848Are there not also at this time many countries and cities bearing the same names as they did two or three thousand years ago?
37848As for what you complain of,--that you were banished your country by him,--if you duly consider the result, in strictness can it be called injustice?
37848Because you were only the common people at the time when we had soldiers of our own, do you therefore think that manhood has quite forsaken you?
37848Berin- byrig, Banbury?
37848Britain has rulers, and she has watchmen: why dost thou incline thyself thus uselessly to prate?"
37848But how shall it be, where neither the father, nor the son, depraved by the example of his evil parent, is found to be chaste?
37848But let us pass over to that which followeth to this effect:"What shall we therefore say, shall we continue still in sin that grace may abound?
37848But tell me now, what is there under the foundation?
37848But what can he do, if he can not save himself or escape thence?
37848But why do we dwell in examples of the Old Testament as if there were none in the New?
37848But why doth our meanness intermeddle in this so manifest a determination?
37848But why should I say more?
37848Cair gurcoc(_ Anglesey?_) 4.
37848Can not those same poisonous cups of offences yet satisfy thy stomach?
37848Cittanford( Ottanford?)
37848Conan made answer:"Why is he then attended with so great a multitude?
37848Dic certam sedem qua te venerabor in ævum, Qua tibi virgineis templa dicabo choris?"
37848Do I with my will voluntarily wish the death of the unrighteous, saith our Lord, rather than that he should return from his evil way and live?
37848Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
37848Do not such narratives exhibit proofs of Divine Providence?
37848Do not you, therefore, think that we ought to demand tribute of the Romans?
37848Does he desire to be reconciled and make his submission to Cæsar, of whom Cæsar himself had before desired peace?
37848Does my lord then condescend to entreat me now, whom before he took upon him to command?
37848Does not the same diversity happen in a mechanic and a soldier?
37848Doth God, therefore, not behold the works of the wicked?
37848Doth the virgin forget her ornament, or the spouse her gorget?
37848For what does the scripture afterwards declare of his son?
37848For what prince is to be compared with the king of Britain, either for brave and gallant soldiers, or for large treasures?
37848For what room could there be for suspicion, when Gorlois himself seemed to be there present?
37848For what wise man will resist the wholesome counsel of God?
37848For who can doubt that they who, as conquerors of the world, were at liberty to choose, did not select places fitted for their purposes?
37848For who less than he could have released from their chains the banished Trojans, when reduced under slavery to so many great princes?
37848For who was present in the counsel of our Lord, and hath seen and heard his speech, who hath considered of his word, and hearkened thereunto?
37848For why shall their countrymen conceal what foreign nations round about now not only know, but also continually are casting in their teeth?
37848God forbid, for we who are dead to sin, how shall we again live in the same?"
37848God will threaten all, and who will not be terrified?
37848Have these base exiles made a camp also in my kingdom?
37848Hear likewise what he speaketh unto the Ephesians; and consider if ye find not your consciences attainted as culpable of this that followeth?
37848How art thou therefore converted into naughtiness?
37848How shall the old leaven, which is sin, be purged away, that from day to day with your uttermost endeavours is increased?
37848If I shall but live to see that day, how sweet will be the wounds which I shall then either receive or give?
37848If ye set and apply what is lame or languishing, is it not evil?
37848In the dispute, Dabutius said to Merlin:"You fool, do you presume to quarrel with me?
37848In the eighth year there was a great slaughter on both sides, at a place called Wodnesbyrg[ Wemborow?
37848Is not a ploughman often the father of a soldier, and a soldier of a ploughman?
37848Is then every honest gratification forbidden?
37848Is there any equality in our birth?
37848Is this a fit reward for my services?
37848Know ye not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole mass?
37848Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
37848Must your hopes, therefore, always depend upon foreign assistance?
37848Of the daily embassies sent to him by foreign nations, from the Tyrrhenian sea to the farthest end of Ireland?
37848Of what service are these things, but to delude the world with unmeaning trifles?
37848On whom truly shall I cast mine eye, but on the humble poor man, and the contrite in spirit, and him that dreadeth my speeches?
37848Or how have ye observed this that followeth?
37848Or who hath respected this that followeth?
37848Revolve in your minds which of these ye have performed?
37848Shall I cry out unto thee, to what end hast thou given me labours and griefs, to behold misery and impiety?"
37848Shall I ever again see the day when I may be able to reward those according to their deserts who have forsaken me in my distress?
37848Shall I receive the same at your hands, saith our Lord?
37848Shall not fire?
37848Shall there fail from the rock of the field, the snow of Libanus?
37848Some persons have written concerning these Hebudes, that during winter darkness continues for the space of thirty days?
37848Stemrugam, Stonehenge?
37848The boy, going on with his questions, asked the wise men what was in it?
37848The priests have not said, Where is our Lord?
37848The same, four years afterwards, fought with Ceawlin against the Britons, near a place called Berin- byrig[ Banbury?]
37848Then St. Germanus, addressing him, said,"Dost thou believe in the Holy Trinity?"
37848Then the boy said to the king,"Why have your servants brought me hither?"
37848Then the holy man, lifting up his eyes, replied,"What man, when there are stones at hand, lays a foundation with reeds?"
37848There is none who repenteth of his sin, saying, What have I done?
37848This question may be answered by another: Where are now the Assyrians, Parthians, Sarmatians, Celtiberians?
37848Thus therefore saith our Lord, Ask the Gentiles, who hath heard such horrible matters, which the virgin Israel hath too often committed?
37848To whom shall I speak and make protestation that he may hear me?
37848Upon his urging me to make haste and write it quickly, I said to him,"Are you willing that I should write that quotation on some leaf apart?
37848Upon this, the messengers diligently inquired of the mother and the other boys, whether he had had a father?
37848Vortigern inquired of his wise men the cause of this opposition to his undertaking, and of so much useless expense of labour?
37848Was ever the like folly heard of?
37848What are the stones of Ireland better than those of Britain, that our kingdom must be put to this disturbance for them?
37848What are you doing?"
37848What dost thou also, thou lion''s whelp( as the prophet saith), Aurelius Conanus?
37848What faith ought we to keep with them?
37848What further service do I owe you?
37848What happened to David for numbering his people, when the prophet Gad spake unto him in this sort?
37848What has he then done, but raised you from a vassal to be a king?
37848What is this house that ye will erect unto me, and what place shall be found for my resting- place?
37848What more is there to be done than that he make his submission and pay tribute to the Roman state?"
37848What need many words?
37848What one of you( I pray you) doth not seek the field of the reward of iniquity?
37848What shall I say of his repeated expeditions against the pagans, his wars, and incessant occupations of government?
37848What shall I say of the cities and towns which he restored, and of others which he built, where none had been before?
37848What therefore shall be done in her last and final ends?
37848What, hath not one God created us?
37848What, is there not one Father of us all?
37848Where shall we next thy lasting temples raise?
37848Which of you, like James the brother of John, has by the unjust prince been beheaded?
37848Which one of you, I pray, hath with his whole mind so pursued sanctity, that he hath earnestly hastened, as much as in him lay, to fulfil the same?
37848Who else could have encouraged them to make head against the Greeks?
37848Who is he that like Joseph, hath rooted out of his heart the remembrance of an offered injury?
37848Who is so fit to succeed as he?
37848Who shall give water unto my head, and to mine eyes a fountain of tears, and I will day and night bewail the slaughtered of my people?
37848Why do not we kill him, that Vortigern may enjoy his crown?
37848Why do ye break in pieces my people, and grind the faces of the poor?
37848Why do you behold these things with the sleepy eyes of your souls?
37848Why do you delay to restore us to our native country?
37848Why dost thou wilfully heap like a mountain, upon thy kingly shoulders, such a load of sins?
37848Why dost thou wilfully kindle against thyself the eternal fires of hell?
37848Why dost thou, in place of enemies, desperately stab thyself with thine own sword, with thine own javelin?
37848Why standest thou astonished, O thou butcher of thine own soul?
37848Why therefore doth every one despise his brother?"
37848Why therefore is not the wound of the daughter of my people healed?
37848Will you suffer these effeminate wretches to escape?
37848Woe be unto you that are profound in heart, to conceal counsel from our Lord, whose works are in darkness, and they say, who seeth us?
37848[ 238] Why will ye still inquire, adding iniquity?
37848[ 628]"Where,"asks he,"are the vestiges of those cities and names which you commemorate?
37848and fire will pass forth from out of his wrath, and who shall extinguish it?
37848and hast honoured thy children more than me, that thou mightest bless them from the beginning in all sacrifices in my presence?
37848and the house of the wicked hoarding up unjust treasures, and with injury unrighteousness?
37848and thou who killest, shalt not thyself be killed?
37848asked the king;"I am called Ambrose( in British Embresguletic),"returned the boy; and in answer to the king''s question,"What is your origin?"
37848do so many thousands of you fly one man?
37848expect from such belly beasts?
37848in offering on mine altar polluted bread: and ye have said, Wherein have we polluted it?
37848it shall brandishing shine, and who will not fear it?
37848it shall thunder, and who will not shake with dread?
37848of the royal halls and chambers, wonderfully erected by his command, with stone and wood?
37848of the royal vills constructed of stone, removed from their old site, and handsomely rebuilt by the king''s command in more fitting places?
37848or by what art can he remain there and improve his cause?
37848or can the waters be drawn dry that gush out cold and flowing?
37848or how dost thou say to thy brother, suffer me to cast the mote out of thine eye, and behold the beam remaineth still in thine own eye?"
37848or shall any one quench out the fire when the straw is burning?
37848or shall not my soul be revenged upon such a nation?"
37848or with so small a body of men vanquished so numerous and powerful an army, and taken their king prisoner in the engagement?
37848our Lord God will send out evils, and who is he that shall repress them?
37848shall I not visit these men, saith our Lord?
37848shall any man repulse a lion that hungereth in the wood?
37848shall the holy flesh take away thy maliciousness from thee, wherein thou hast glorified?
37848unfold our fate, And say what region is our destined seat?
37848when shall it be lawful for my carcass to enjoy them?
37848when shall they be let loose at me?
37848when shall those beasts come the workers of my salvation, which are for me prepared?
37848whither fly ye, base wretches?
37848who shall live( as a certain one before us hath said) when such things are done by our countrymen, if perchance they may be any where accomplished?
37848who will grant me in the wilderness the inn of passengers?
37848why did you ever advance me to an unstable felicity, since the punishment of lost happiness is greater than the sense of present misery?
37848why do you hearken unto them with the deaf ears of your senses?
37848why therefore hath my people said, we have departed, we will come no more unto thee?
37848why therefore is this people in Jerusalem, with a contentious aversion alienated?
37848will our Lord have burnt offerings or oblations, and not rather that the voice of our Lord should be obeyed?
39875And do n''t they ever object, or make a commotion in the shop?
39875And what are those Venetian- like balconies, all hung with greenery and flowers?
39875And what,continues the crushed tourist,"is that turreted, buttressed, red- brick edifice?
39875Did y''ever see sich fine plants?
39875Have you some nice, new,_ good_ novels?
39875Here, where the pulses of London beat, Someone strives with the Presence Grey-- Ah, is it victory or defeat? 39875 How long have these rooms been vacant?"
39875I met a preacher there I knew, and said:''Ill and o''erwork''d, how fare you in this scene?'' 39875 Is any one,"asks a recent writer,"ever young in the Borough?
39875Oranges and Lemons, Say the bells of St. Clement''s; You owe me ten shillings, Say the bells of St. Helen''s; When will you pay me? 39875 Poor Greek architecture,"he adds compassionately,"what is it doing in such a climate?"

39875What have you got, dearie?
39875What in the world, Turner, are you going to do with it?
39875What sort of things do they generally take?
39875What,he or she may ask,"is that imposing structure with Nuremberg- like green roofs, towering over the trees of the Embankment Gardens?"
39875What,he said,"it will be questioned"( of me)"when the sun rises, do you not see a round disc of fire somewhat like a guinea?

39875Why do you live so far away?
39875Will Regent''s Park, I say, tolerate this? 39875 Will they''talk of mad Shallow yet''in Clement''s Inn?

39875--_Spenser._ Among the by- ways that open suddenly out of the highways of London, are there any more attractive than the Inns of Court?
39875A grimy archway, piercing the buildings of Clifford''s Inn, and adorned(?)
39875A little boy-- one"of the streets streety,"once held poor pussy while the quietus-- of prussic acid-- was administered:"Wo n''t I jest?"

39875And do you sit here all day, and never see the green woods and the trees and flowers and the charming country?''
39875And do you think that he''s always quite_ safe_?"
39875And does not M. Taine pour the vials of his wrath on to the great river Palace of Somerset House, with its"blackened porticoes filled with soot"?
39875And he drew my attention to the quaint white- washed walls of the inn, made hideous by Japanese fans and cheap paper rosettes,& c."You are English?"
39875And how many people, in the whirl and rush of London, even_ look_ at the surrounding buildings at all?
39875And the charming, curly- haired boys-- the pretty and pathetic Savoyard, with his beloved monkey in a red coat-- who does not know them?
39875And was that a barge being towed up stream, or was it not, rather, a boat crossing to the nearer shore, with its unknown, saintly passenger?
39875And what a strange and indecipherable"crypto- porticus"would the"Twopenny Tube"prove to some future Middleton of the ages?
39875And what is left, one may ask, of our National Valhalla, for the great names of a future age?
39875And what would the bright particular spirits of the present day now think of such irreverent, such high- handed proceedings?
39875And who could work among the London poor without, at least, something of the feeling so beautifully expressed in Matthew Arnold''s well- known lines?
39875And why, some may ask, is London what it is?
39875And yet, looking at the matter calmly and without prejudice,--are London stones, indeed, so unworthy, so poor, so inglorious?
39875Are not the vicissitudes, too, of theatres as striking and as dramatic in their way as those of other historic houses?
39875Are picture- galleries, museums, and such- like treasures of the metropolis, to be described as London''s Highways, or as its Byways?

39875CHAPTER V THE TOWER_ Prince Edward_:"Did Julius Caesar build that place, my lord?"
39875Can such things be, you wonder, in the London of our day?
39875Chelsea and Kensington in the past have had many glories; who can say what splendid fortune may yet be theirs?
39875Chemists may tell you that it is merely carbon, a product of the soot, but what does that matter?
39875Could one imagine a greater contrast than these two Cheyne Row households?
39875Could these exquisitely pondered buildings have been, indeed, works of the nineteenth century?
39875Do I let them do it?...
39875Do not the more or less prosaic Government buildings appear to be the"cloud- capt towers and gorgeous palaces"of some dream of Oriental splendour?
39875Do people stay here in the summer?
39875Do they not haunt the city gardens that lie behind Queen Square, and coo sweetly all through the London spring and summer?
39875Does Regent''s Park wish to sit tamely under insult?
39875Does he desire to see pictures?
39875Does not even the plain inscription,"Poeta Inglese, Shelly,"(_ sic_) lend an added glamour to the Lung''Arno of Pisa?
39875Does not the children''s rhyme( there is ever deep reason in childish rhymes) run thus?
39875Does not"Little Britain"differ widely from its neighbouring Clerkenwell?
39875Does your mind require stimulating by the study of Greek art?
39875Else why is it that so many beautiful things are produced there?
39875Even a rainy day of London greyness-- what does the poet''s eye see in it?
39875Even grass will grow in shut- in, walled Bloomsbury gardens; it may, indeed, sometimes require treating as an"annual"; but what of that?
39875For twenty years it has found its voice, ay, and its pence, too, here.... Is it to continue to find them, or not?
39875From the West to the East is a wide difference; yet, between the two, how many minor differences?
39875From"nudging"he proceeded to"squeezing"; and, finally, could it be fancy, or was it an arm that began ominously to encircle her waist?
39875Generals and statesmen went by, and a glittering cavalcade of English and Continental princes, and the whole procession was a preparation-- for what?
39875Had they books, journals, writing materials?
39875Has it not been a"silent witness"of the pageants of the magnificent Pharaohs of the Eighteenth Dynasty?
39875Has never any one come here with a love of cleanliness for its own sake, or with a yearning for clean windows, to these Inns?
39875Has not his touching description of a childhood spent here almost the dignity of a classic?
39875Have not Dickens and other novelists adopted him as their hero?
39875Have you ever thought, as you looked on those golden letters, how interesting they may prove to some future antiquary?
39875Here, as told in Shakespeare, King Henry IVth died:_ King Henry_:"Doth any name particular belong Unto the lodging where I first did swoon?"

39875I went away sadly; yet what could I have done?
39875If Jane were fond of Young Dowgate, why did she die and leave the book here?
39875If some of these could, indeed, know all that was in store for them, would they so gaily have embraced the theatrical career?
39875If they had dug this sort of place out of old Pompeii, what would the antiquaries have called it?

39875Is not carking care their birthright?"
39875Is she the aged pensioner of some departed inhabitant, and does she, perchance, hope to steal, unperceived, some scrap from that unsavoury basket?
39875Is there anything, I wondered at a first glance, more dismal in all London?
39875It is not to be denied that the visitor is often sadly in need of some guide:"Are all these pictures hand- painted?"
39875It may be partly fancy; yet, is not this often the effect produced by the"Surrey side"?
39875It takes an oldish man to remember the comet of 1811. Who remembers Paul Veronese, nine generations since?
39875M. Taine, we know, did not hold this view; is it, indeed, to be expected from any one but a true, a born Londoner?
39875Mr. Gladstone''s Life, for instance?
39875No other arrangement, no doubt, is possible; yet, who could penetrate to the soul of the Abbey under such conditions as these?

39875Oxford Circus is only distant ten minutes from the Russell Hotel, yet"where is Russell Square?"
39875Perhaps, in the happy future, who knows?

39875Queen Charlotte, apparently rather resenting the ugliness of the representation, said to the sculptor,"Why did you make so frightful a figure?"
39875Soho as widely from its adjacent Bloomsbury?

39875The great writer has caught the spirit of the place; where in London, indeed, has he not done so?
39875The place?
39875Then, in tones of remonstrance, he demanded:''Are you contented with such a life?''
39875Then, it''s,''Would you mind if I take a photograph?''
39875These treasure- houses of London,--what wealth do they not represent,--what unimagined riches do they not contain?
39875They belonged, in 1754, to the Dowgate family; and who were they?
39875To beautify the dull and often ugly lives of the London poor,--what society could have a much worthier aim?
39875Was it agony of mind that guided the stroke, or did they find it some solace in their anguish?
39875Was it perhaps, on these sunset- skies that Christina Rossetti gazed when she wrote her most inspired poems?
39875We can not go out of doors without being asked a hundred times, in varying type, such silly questions as"Why does a Woman Look Old Sooner than a Man?"
39875Were these people merely human and not royal, would not such afflictions win our sympathy?
39875Were these places dirtier in Dickens''s time?
39875Were they not the subtlest creations of the age in which Gothic art was spontaneous?
39875What approach such as this can Paris offer?
39875What are the special qualities that constitute"a good shopper"?
39875What can be more dully monotonous, more unromantic, than the row of brick and stucco house- fronts that face the average large square or street?
39875What chance has Italian cupola, Doric portico, Gothic gable, so crowded and overpowered in the busy mart of men and of things?
39875What chance, among such, have the poor wandering ghosts of a famous past?
39875What is being read now?"
39875What king may deem him more than man, What priest says Faith can Time resist While_ this_ endures to mark their span-- This monument in London mist?"
39875What place?
39875What street in London is, indeed, not"historic"in a sense?
39875What were the beginnings of this great business?
39875What, by- the- way, is the derivation of the term"Cockney"?
39875What, then, is the prevailing architecture of London?
39875When are y''going to arst me in to tea?"
39875Where are the tastes of"the people"with regard to plays?
39875Where be the sentries who used to salute as the Royal chariots drove in and out?
39875Where can they all come from?
39875Who now recalls the merits of the forgotten magnates of past ages?
39875Who prates of stream and sea?
39875Who was it who first said that no real woman could ever pass a hat- shop?
39875Who would imagine the curious"Soane Museum"in the quiet house in Lincoln''s Inn Fields?
39875Who would paint you, when no one would even look at you?"
39875Who, for instance, will maintain that the blackness of St. Paul''s itself does not immeasurably add to the grandeur of its effect?
39875Whose is the great mind who set these fashions, before whom every householder bows?
39875Why are the window panes, apparently, never, never, cleaned?
39875Why is the Jewish quarter so invariably concerned with old clothes?
39875Why should we, the travellers of the world, who so admire other cities, so persistently pour obloquy on our own?
39875Why was not Winchester-- so important in Roman times, and, later, the capital of Wessex-- preferred?
39875Why was this spot specially chosen as the capital?
39875Why were not Southampton or Bristol-- apparently equally well placed for trade-- favoured?
39875Why, indeed, should our artists all flock to Venice to paint?
39875Why, one reflects, is there a kind of tradition in such things?
39875Why, who_ would_ pay house rent, especially in London, if he or she could help it?
39875Would not either of these be noticed, if"planted out"in an Italian valley?
39875Yet, their dirt and desolation notwithstanding, can we not almost find it in our hearts to regret these London byways of a past age?
39875_ Gloucester_:"Why, what should you fear?"
39875_ Tantæne animis cælestibus iræ?_ Among the works of the Lombard School is a picture by Parmigiano,_ The Vision of St. Jerome_( No.
39875and how many millions will follow it in the future, when these of to- day shall have finished their course?
39875and the immaculate Mayfair from the more doubtful Bayswater?
39875and what were their beginnings?
39875can ye keep Your eyes from teares, and see the marble weep?
39875even as regards the eternal cats and the equally eternal"laundresses"?
39875he went on, with a pleased smile:"ah, then, you know my place in London, Scott''s?"
39875many galleries of priceless works of art are within a stone''s throw, free, ready, waiting only to be seen; does he prefer realism and life?
39875or the Eastern magnificence and opulence of some of the Park Lane mansions?
39875or"Where did you get that''at?"
39875or''Have I your leave to sit in the yard and sketch?''
39875or, indeed, from outsiders?
39875the dignified Georgian spaciousness in the old mansions of Bedford Square?
39875the galleries of the British Museum are open to you; or"Dost thou love pictures?
39875the gorgeous interior of the sombre houses of Bruton Street?
39875the immense library of the British Museum offers him all its treasures; does he merely wish to perambulate vaguely?
39875the picture- galleries of Piccadilly and Mayfair?
39875the quiet nooks of the Temple invite him; is it solitary study that his soul craves?
39875to bend its back to the tyrant?"
39875to lie down to be crushed?
39875who would grudge you that harmless and unfailing consolation?
39875who would not be with thee in May?
39875why, the Mint, sir, the Mint, sir, is known for it; you''ve''erd on it your ways, ai n''t you?"
10990''Shall I lay perjury upon my soul?''
10990''What are the French doing before Rome, and what will they be doing after they have gained possession of it?''
10990''What is a treaty?''
10990''What, not mentioned?
10990After such unqualified praise upon Russia, and after her defection, is not such language, I ask, inconsistent, absurd, and preposterous?
10990Again he must ask, what was the object of our pursuit in conjunction with the other Powers against France?
10990Again he must ask, what was the object of the war?
10990Again:''England might act in this manner: being able, ought she so to act?
10990Aggrandizement?
10990All at once the gentleman said,''Did you notice anything particular about the bread at breakfast?''
10990And can you suppose, that if peace were made, he has not power to make it be observed by the people of France?
10990And how?
10990And is it in such a quarrel that we would mix ourselves?
10990And now, I ask, what are the consequences of the just influence of England in the councils of Europe being lowered?
10990And on a war thus originating, can it be doubted, by an English House of Commons, whether the aggression was on the part of this country or of France?
10990And what defence have we?
10990And what happened?
10990And what is the answer of Lord Bloomfield?
10990And what is the conduct of the Government?
10990And what is the obligation of this alliance?
10990And what security had Denmark?
10990And what was the sort of language used by them in order to bring about that result?
10990And what were the explanations they offered on these different grounds of offence?
10990And why should they not?
10990And why?
10990Are not all her violent invectives against regular governments come into disesteem?
10990Are not my family committed irrevocably to the fortunes of this country?
10990Are there weighty inconveniences which enjoin discretion, which show the necessity of secrecy?
10990Are they not founded upon reason?
10990Are we talking of a stranger of whom we have heard nothing?
10990Are you distracted in your brain to talk of our going to Turin?
10990Are you mad?
10990As against France alone, her task might not be more difficult than before; but is it only with France that she would now have to contend?
10990Aye, but what was his position then?
10990Britain?
10990But did the House remember the pathetic appeal of the Solicitor- General?
10990But he made out his case in this way:''Take the island of Cyprus?
10990But how did Her Majesty''s Government act towards Denmark in similar circumstances?
10990But how?
10990But if this security is effected by maiming France, does the right honourable gentleman think that the people of France would submit to it?
10990But if we were disposed at once to act upon the guarantee contained in that treaty, what state of circumstances does it contemplate?
10990But in what manner was this chaos brought into order?
10990But in what, then, lies the difference between the two treaties?
10990But is that all the ground for the proceeding?
10990But is the absence of inducement and incitement all?
10990But is this the actual state of the present question?
10990But it may be asked, did nobody gain?
10990But let us see what is this Batoum of which you have heard so much?
10990But no such thing; not one drop could be spilt, and why?
10990But on what conditions did the German Powers accept it?
10990But the question was, whether it was just or politic to make this a ground of war?
10990But was it an object of sound policy to bring a war upon our hands, of which it was clear that we must bear all the burden?
10990But was there anything in the general conduct of Great Britain at Verona, which lowered, as has been asserted, the character of England?
10990But was this all?
10990But what Empire has not?
10990But what did the two words''Liberty''and''Empire''mean in a Roman mouth?
10990But what do they do?
10990But what does all this come to, gentlemen?
10990But what has happened?
10990But what is Rome now?
10990But what signifies to France the loss of such renown as victory bestows?
10990But where is the testimony in favour of the effect which this intimation produced?
10990But who are the Jacobins?
10990But who is the person that applies for this subsidy?
10990But why did the Ministers press a vote, when they were unable to give the House satisfaction upon these points?
10990But why did we make them say it?
10990But, at the same time, what was the conduct of the Secretary of State?
10990By what means?
10990Can any verbal distinctions, any evasions whatever, possibly explain away this public infamy?
10990Can it be accident that produced them?
10990Can you name a country in the world that would have stood that?
10990Can you name a single country in the world for the freedom of which the modern Prussian has ever sacrificed a single life?
10990Can you suppose that Persia, in that state of things, would have been ready to march against Russia for the sake of assisting Poland?
10990Could such despots love the free constitution of this country?
10990Could we prove our caution more than by withholding that assurance, which would at once have set France at ease?
10990Did his conduct and connexions here afford no such ground?
10990Did she challenge Germany?
10990Did she send an ultimatum to Germany?
10990Did that reservation still exist?
10990Did you forget the services which he had rendered to Spain, or did you imagine that Spain had forgotten them?
10990Do I not come of the same English stock?
10990Do we not know what constructions have been put in this country, on the coronation oath, as to its operation on what is called the Catholic Question?
10990Do you not think he feels it?
10990Do you see in the management of those affairs that capacity, and especially that kind of capacity that is adequate to the occasion?
10990Do you want the Russians to get Constantinople instead of Adrianople?
10990Does it not read like madness that men, thirty years ago, were frantic at the idea of the people of Birmingham having a £10 franchise?
10990Does my honourable and learned friend believe that the policy of Elizabeth would in that case have been the same?
10990Fighting in Spanish ranks, should we not have to point our bayonets against Spanish bosoms?
10990First, was the object of Ministers a right object?
10990For what would be the consequence?
10990Had she ever inflicted any wrongs upon Germany which the Kaiser was bound to redress?
10990Had the ratifications of the treaties of 1831 been accompanied by any reserve?
10990Has not France renounced and reprobated those Jacobin principles, which created her so many enemies?
10990Have I not already accounted for that suggestion?
10990Have they estimated the burdens of a Peninsular War?
10990Have we so soon forgotten the course and progress of the last war?
10990Have you any of those neat little Treasury £1 notes?
10990Have you any £5 notes about you?
10990Have you read the Kaiser''s speeches?
10990Having asserted that principle to the world, what did we do?
10990He asked whether the measures which Ministers were pursuing were likely to preserve the peace of Europe?
10990How could he revoke it?
10990How dare you criticize a Customs official?
10990How did Servia behave?
10990How did they know the peace of Europe would be preserved?
10990How should we have received that intimation?
10990How was that revolution procured?
10990How, indeed, can I, any more than any of you, be un- English and anti- national?
10990How, then, can we define these principles, when persons who would now disavow them fall by some fatality into an unavoidable acknowledgement of them?
10990I have given you a narrative of the manner in which our affairs have been conducted, and now I ask you what is your opinion?
10990If Europe is no better, and the people of England have been so much worse, who has benefited by the new system of foreign policy?
10990If ever a criticism is made on his ambiguous conduct the noble lord asks me,''What is your policy?''
10990If he is opposed at any time in his career, what is his appeal?
10990If so, ought this important point to be concealed?
10990If so, was it consistent with our policy?
10990If this, then, be the case, what danger can be apprehended?
10990If we say nothing at this moment, what is France to do with her fleet in the Mediterranean?
10990In the first place, can any man doubt that they could have taken Rome long ago if they had not been averse to the effusion of blood?
10990Is he connected with the soil, or with the habits, the affections, or the prejudices of the country?
10990Is it not his interest to make peace with us?
10990Is it not plain, then, that we have been guilty of no violation of duty towards the weaker party?
10990Is it that we will in no case treat with Buonaparte?
10990Is it then necessary to examine what were the terms of that ultimatum, with which we refused to comply?
10990Is it, then, sufficient to say, let monarchy be restored, and let peace be given to all Europe?
10990Is it, then, to be endured, that the Minister shall come down and ask for a subsidy under such circumstances?
10990Is not that a fine thing?
10990Is not whatever property I may have depending as much as yours is depending upon the good government of our common fatherland?
10990Is that an expense to be incurred again, without some peremptory and unavoidable call of duty, of honour, or of interest?
10990Is there anything in his conduct and character to incline us to listen to him?
10990Is, then, military despotism that which we are accustomed to consider as a stable form of government?
10990It may be said,''Will you allow these German Powers to act as they please?
10990King James, we all remember, asked Bishop Neale if he might not take his subjects''money without the authority of Parliament?
10990Little nations?
10990Lord Charles Beresford: What is the date of that?
10990May I tell you, in a simple parable, what I think this war is doing for us?
10990Might not any advice, however unpalatable, have been offered by such a benefactor, without liability to offence or misconstruction?
10990Now is that a question for which England would be justified in going to war with Russia?
10990Now, gentlemen, I go back to the foreign policy of the Liberal party, and I ask, what has that done?
10990Now, what had happened to Persia?
10990Of what consequence was it to any man, whether he was plundered by a man with a white feather in his hat, or by one with a nightcap on his head?
10990On the other hand, would it have been advisable for us to precipitate Portugal into the war?
10990On what was such conduct founded, but on Jacobinical principles?
10990One is-- Would our interference bring this war to a conclusion?
10990Secondly, did they pursue it in a right way?
10990Shall Caesar send a lie?''
10990Sir Edward Goschen proceeded to put a very pertinent question: I questioned his Excellency about the French colonies-- What are the French colonies?
10990Such a specimen of sinking in policy?
10990That is at the bottom of all their demands when they ask,''What is your policy?''
10990That power is Russia; and how can you blame these people, if in such circumstances, they are disposed to say, Russia is our friend?
10990The Earl of Derby: May I ask the noble Earl if that decision was to be taken during the occupation of the province by the German troops?
10990The Russian Slav?
10990The burning and massacring, the shooting down of harmless people-- why?
10990The declaration of that war was the seizure of Savoy, by an invading army; and on what ground?
10990The first question, then, was, Had Belgium and Holland signed the treaty on which the execution of the other depends?
10990The question has been repeatedly asked, was this money to be ultimately paid or not?
10990Then the question came to this-- Was England to undertake the conquest of Portugal for Donna Maria or not?
10990Then what was to be done?
10990Then why the new condition in the second convention?
10990To what are gentlemen reduced in support of it?
10990To whom would we disguise it?
10990Treaties?
10990Was I not born upon the same soil?
10990Was ever there a more wretched shift, a more hollow pretence, than this?
10990Was it so, when Russia ratified with a reservation?
10990Was it the policy of England to prevent the dismemberment of the Portuguese Empire?
10990Was it to be tolerated that a Power not at war with us should see a force collected in England sufficient to excite apprehensions?
10990Was it to make a partition of France, as they did of Poland?
10990Was it to restore the ancient tyranny and despotism of that nation?
10990Was not that a terrible proposition?
10990Was she preparing to make war on Germany?
10990Was that an occasion of a_ casus belli_?
10990Was there ever an instance in which Parliament had been called upon to vote public money, arising out of negotiations, whilst they were yet pending?
10990Was this to be tolerated?
10990Was this truckling to France?
10990We are in the presence of a European conflagration; can anybody set limits to the consequences that may arise out of it?
10990We asked who was to be the Sovereign of these two Duchies which were to be thus governed?
10990We have been asked in the course of this debate, do you think you can impose monarchy upon France, against the will of the nation?
10990Well, Sir, I ask again whether there are two interpretations to be put upon such observations as these?
10990Well, my Lords, but the question comes as to what, at the end of the Conference, is our position, and what will be our course?
10990Well, what did Her Majesty''s Government do?
10990Well, why?
10990Were the French to have a constitution, such as the right honourable gentleman( Mr. Burke) was likely to applaud?
10990Were there no warnings against danger?
10990Were we to forget that the King of Prussia encouraged the Brabanters to revolt, and then left them to their fate?
10990Were we to forget the recent conduct with respect to Poland?
10990Were we to forget the taking of Dantzic and Thorn?
10990Were we to take the form of it from that exercised by the Emperor, or that of the King of Prussia?
10990What about England?
10990What ails you?
10990What answer did the Russian Slav give?
10990What are her excuses?
10990What are its characters?
10990What are they made of?
10990What are they worth?
10990What are we to get in return?
10990What business had German soldiers there at all?
10990What can diplomatic intervention do now?
10990What conditions could be made when we are in ignorance of our real state?
10990What could be done to bring about an amicable understanding?
10990What course had the Government pursued with respect to Greece?
10990What did it mean as regards Belgium?
10990What did that proposal amount to?
10990What did they do in 1870?
10990What did they do?
10990What do we know as to what may be going on in Downing Street at this moment?
10990What does that amount to?
10990What from that moment was the situation of M. Chauvelin?
10990What had Captain Codrington to do with the going out or coming in of the Ministry?
10990What had she done?
10990What has been the fate of those who were enthroned at the Revolution, and whose supremacy has been for so long a period undisputed among us?
10990What has been the general result, what is the grand total, what is the profit, what is the upshot, what is the balance at the end?
10990What has my honourable friend said?
10990What has occurred since?
10990What has she done?
10990What history in the category of nations is unblotted?
10990What interpretation could M. Hall place on that interview?
10990What is her other excuse?
10990What is it we are fighting for?
10990What is left?
10990What is our interest in maintaining the neutrality of Belgium?
10990What is that country?
10990What is the immediate moral effect of those exaggerated statements of the separate interest of England?
10990What is the result?
10990What is the state of Europe at this moment?
10990What is the state of Europe produced by this management of our affairs?
10990What is their crime?
10990What is their defence?
10990What is their demand?
10990What more could you expect?
10990What other policy is there before the House?
10990What remains?
10990What reply should we have given to that Belgian appeal?
10990What shall I say, then, on the case of Portugal?
10990What then was the meaning of the answer to that proposition,--that,''_ come what might_, His Majesty would be no party to such a project''?
10990What to her is the forgoing of one sprig of laurel more in addition to the accumulated honours of her victorious career?
10990What was his false pretence?
10990What was it doing there?
10990What was our own attitude?
10990What was that?
10990What was that?
10990What was the answer given by Bismarck?
10990What was the course of Her Majesty''s Government at this critical conjuncture?
10990What was the motive power behind them?
10990What was the opinion of Spain?
10990What was the state of Turkey then?
10990What was to prevent Russia and France from making a similar use of our ports?
10990What were the Austrian demands?
10990What were the dangers which threatened the peace of Europe?
10990What were we to do under those circumstances?
10990What will be our position then?
10990What would have been the position of Great Britain to- day in the face of that spectacle if we had assented to this infamous proposal?
10990What, gentlemen, was Rome?
10990What, then, is the inference I draw from all that I have now stated?
10990What, then, was the nature of this system?
10990Where, then, was the justification of the assertion that the two treaties were founded upon the same consideration?
10990While Lord Wodehouse was repairing to his post, did the Secretary of State in the least falter in his tone?
10990Who but your commanders and envoys are to blame for the necessity under which they placed the King''s troops of fighting a battle on the 6th of April?
10990Who can doubt the valour of Servia, when she undertook to tackle her newspaper editors?
10990Who does not know that, in diplomatic correspondence, under that suavity of expression is implied an''or'', which imports another alternative?
10990Who listened to the cry?
10990Why did they not perform the obligation?
10990Why did you neglect so happy an opportunity, and leave unemployed so fit an agent?
10990Why did you not employ the Duke of Wellington for this purpose?
10990Why is our honour as a country involved in this war?
10990Why not give notice openly of our intentions?
10990Why not make the instructions public?
10990Why then does she not notify to Spain what has been done, and what it is proposed to do_ in that mediatory sense( en aquel sentido__ mediador_)?
10990Why was she so cold, and ultimately in the painful position of declining to act with us?
10990Why, gentlemen, what had been done by the Liberal Government, which, forsooth, attended to nothing but pounds, shillings, and pence?
10990Why, then, force the House now to express an opinion?
10990Why, what had Sir W. Parker to do with that?
10990Why?
10990Will nothing satisfy you?
10990With respect to Verona, then, what remains of accusation against the Government?
10990With this assumption, I proceed to examine, whether the papers on the table show that the best means were employed for attaining the given object?
10990With whom have they been at war since the period of this declaration?
10990Without giving military aid could you recover Schleswig and Holstein, and even Jutland from the Austrian and Prussian forces?
10990Would she have resisted more fiercely in September?
10990Yes, and what are we to get in return for the betrayal of our friends and the dishonour of our obligations?
10990and if she ought, has she acted so?
10990friends that the money might be due from England; but to whom ought it to be paid?
10990gentleman had asked what right we had to stop them on the high seas?
10990member asks: What if both these Powers with whom we are making this treaty should combine against the independence of Belgium?

10990member think would be the effect of a marriage with one of the daughters of the King of the French?
10990member, ought England to make the payment of her portion of the loan?
10990no chastisements for extravagance?
10990no doubts-- no complaints-- no charges of rashness and impolicy?
10990not a word about the new institutions?''
10990offering the surrender of all that it had acquired, in order to obtain-- what?
10990or that Ministers of the new King would renounce them?
10990or was it to be formed by the lady who so mildly conducted the affairs of Russia?
10990or were they all to lay their heads together, and by the assistance of the Pope, dictate a form of government to France?
10990or whether the manifest aggression on the part of France was the result of anything but the principles which characterize the French revolution?
56157?--Professor Blackie''s Poem on Glencoe, 33 CHAPTER VII. 56157 ?--Professor Blackie''s Poem on Glencoe.
56157Albert, old fellow,we remarked,"the boat, you see, is adrift; what''s to be done?"
56157And is''Speach''good, then, Donald?
56157But what is your present work, Willie?
56157But what,we inquired,"do they make of them in Glasgow?"
56157But, mother, the witch that lives down i''the glen?
56157Is it a common opinion that such is the case, and do you believe it yourself?
56157The man is dead and buried; what watching should he have to do?
56157To put down what?
56157Well, Nether Lochaber, my boy,he seemed inclined to say,"how are you?
56157Well, Willie,we exclaimed, as we came up with him,"what in the world are you doing in the glen to- day, and where''s your pack?
56157What can be cleaner, fresher, fragranter for bedding, whether for horse or cow, than these nice green ferns? 56157 What do you call him?"
56157What is the value of your dog?
56157What particular object has the spirit in watching?
56157What''s his name, Donald?
56157Why so?
56157Will you allow me, sir, to put down some worms in your place?
56157''N so dh''èirich a phiaid gu grad,''S thubhairt i''s i''s tailceadh a bonn,''An tusa sin a''d mheall air stop Nuair a bhi''s do cheod- cheann trom?
56157), published ten or a dozen years before Grays ode, occurs this line--"Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat?"
56157Among other things he could say,''Well, who are you?''
56157And how fares it with our feathered favourites, the wild birds, in these hard times?
56157And suppose one wanted a"Lochaber axe,"where would he most naturally look for it but in Lochaber?
56157And talking of birds, what does the reader think the Prussians are up to now?
56157And what after all, the reader may ask, brought the black- backed gull circling and screaming over your heads?
56157And while on such subjects, let us ask the reader by the way if he has noticed that cocks do n''t crow now- a- days as they used to do?
56157Are glanders incurable?
56157B.--"Did you indeed?
56157But have you ever seen the merlin or merlin falcon( Falco æsalon), perform the same feat?
56157But how at mid- winter stands the fact?
56157But what has all this, it may be asked, to do with Mr. Frank Buckland and his proverb that"Dog will not eat dog"?
56157But what matters it?
56157Co sid air an làr?
56157Could it be owing to any cyclical meteorological changes, or to anything anomalous in the order of the seasons?
56157Did n''t he sleep every night at our own bedroom door?
56157Did n''t these circles, it was argued, appear in the course of a single night?
56157Did such a planet really exist, and if it did, could this daring Frenchman find it?
56157Did you ever, by the way, good reader, look at an apple tree in full blossom on a calm, dewy night by candle- light?
56157Did you ever, reader, crack a nut?
56157Does he abuse his salmon?
56157Does the fieldfare breed in Scotland?
56157Fish in the pool?
56157His usual pace of a good eight miles an hour is now hardly over five, and what in such a case shall you do?
56157How came it there?
56157How do you know, the reader may ask, for it was calm and quiet enough during your visit on Friday?
56157How many thousands and thousands of years ago lived that flint- working race, who, in view of the extreme slowness of geological changes, can say?
56157How were the eggs broken?
56157How, then, about your Arctic sea- birds?
56157How, then, do we account for it?
56157I warrant it is my poor brother, Wat; who knows what these wild Irishes may have done to him?"
56157I wish to have a look at your bundle of ballads?"
56157If so, has fresh water alone this effect, or is it necessary that the animal should be some time immersed in salt water?
56157Is it curable?
56157Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat?
56157Is the specimen in Mr. M''Leay''s possession male or female?
56157Is thine alone the seed that strews the plain?
56157It was all in Gaelic, of course, but we give the substance in English:--"You were at the funeral on the island the other day, sir?"
56157More good?
56157Nor was the superstition unknown to Shakspeare; was there anything unknown to him?
56157Not liking to be thus watched and followed, the raven turned rapidly round and sternly exclaimed,''Well, who are you?''
56157Now, does the reader know what an inch of rain means?
56157O, Thomson, void of sense as well as reason; Why in our ears such arrant nonsense drum?
56157Peadair agus Pàl, Co air a bhith''s an aire''nochd?
56157Publicly and privately has this query been put to us-- Is it unusual to hear a pigeon cooing at midnight, and the owl hooting in bright noonday?
56157Query-- Granted that the hedgehog does not eat eggs, then what was he doing in possession of these three different nests?
56157Say, what may this portend?''
56157Shall the intrepid explorer be restored to us?
56157Shrug''st thou, malice?
56157Snails?
56157The mother was horrified; the father in a rage asked what the deuce she meant by spitting in his son''s face?
56157Thine the full harvest of the golden year?
56157This nonsense apart, however, the question remains, What business had a Spanish dollar in the bottom of the Sound of Mull?
56157Upon whom shall this night''s vigil rest?
56157Was n''t he regularly and well fed?
56157We have called the merlin an evil- doer: are we entitled so to call him?
56157We thought, as we sat alone in the midst of that magnificent storm, of him( was it John Foster?)
56157We wonder if such a thing as a"Jeddart staff"could be had to- day in its proper locality?
56157What animal killed the chickens, if it was not the hedgehog?
56157What brought them there?
56157What could the perturbations of Uranus mean?
56157What could they now be after?
56157What could this swell and surge, troubling a loch otherwise calm as a mill- pond, mean?
56157What is the colour of its plumage-- pure white, or slightly barred and mottled with brown?
56157What says the reader?
56157What were his rushes for then?
56157Where''s the need, we ask ourselves, for so much hurry and bustle?
56157Who for thy table feeds the wanton fawn, For him as kindly spread the flowery lawn; Is it for thee the lark ascends and sings?
56157Who is that that I see on the floor?
56157Why should n''t everybody sow in February or early March as we do, and have their ingathering in August, generally our best and driest month?
56157You probably glued its keel to a piece of wood or something of that kind?"
56157and which the way?
56157beetles?
56157blazing on his shield, and who shall dare to stop his fierce career against the perpetrators of the foulest deed on record?
56157for how can this bird give us any true information concerning our march, which could not foresee how to save himself?
56157how?"
56157the reader exclaims interrogatively, how can a shower do good, how can it be otherwise than harmful in harvest time?
56157we exclaimed,"how did you manage to fix it properly?
56157we inquired,"what are you so industriously picking up along the road and transferring to your wallet?
56157what?"
56157worked solely for thy good, Thy joy, thy pastime, thy attire, thy food?
46090''Is it deep neet?'' 46090 ''Mine is breet enough,''said Chirrup, showing a pewter platter, and continued,''What hast thou?''
46090''Well, Georgy, and so yo''re leaving th''owd house at last?'' 46090 Am aw lyin''thinks ta?"
46090And dun you really think, then,said I,"that this place has been haunted by a boggart?"

46090It''s nought else, aw believe,said Mary;"does ta think he''ll co''?"
46090Mary,said he, rising, and calling to his wife, who was in another room;"Mary, wheer''s that old watch?"
46090Nay, I do n''t know as I hev, Billy; what is it? 46090 Papa, are angels poorly sometimes, like we are here?
46090Papa, are people lame in heaven?

46090An sed,"Wheer arto beawn?"
46090An''wheer dun yo come fro, sen yo?"
46090And must my trembling spirit fly Into a world unknown?
46090And what is death, after all; but the stopping of life''s watch; to be wound up again by the Maker?
46090And who was he, that jovial fellow, With his strong ale so old and mellow?
46090Any man, with an unsophisticated mind, looking upon the two, might be allowed to say,"Why not do enough of_ this_ to cure_ that_?"
46090Are there any remains of the old chantry left?"
46090Arto findin''things eawt?
46090Arto leet gi''n?
46090As to the pride of"ancient descent,"what does it mean, apart from the renown of noble deeds?

46090He replied,"Well; aw have yerd it said so, aw think-- but my memory houds nought neaw.... Tim Bobbin, say''n yo?

46090I could not but lift my eyes now and then towards that solemn face, inwardly moved by a feeling which reverently said,"Will it do?"
46090I had no sooner sat down, than he looked at my waistcoat pocket again, and said,"I say, old boy, why do n''t you carry a watch?
46090I well remember that the following were among their favourites:--"O, Nanny, wilt thou gang wi''me?"
46090In a minute or so, a voice from the cottage called out,"Does he belung to th''owd body, thinken yo?"
46090Is he to become a kind of nomadic outcast?
46090Is he to take up his works and walk, from one locality to another, every time an inconsiderate complaint happens to be made against him?
46090Is n''t it, Sarah?"
46090It runs thus:--_ Thrum._ Maister, dun yo want a nice bull- an- tarrier?
46090It troubled me so much, indeed, that, even at church, when I heard the words,"Which of you, by taking thought, can add one cubit unto his stature?"
46090It''s nearly th''heighest point i''t country; is n''t it, uncle?"
46090Knocking the ashes out of my pipe, I rose up and said,"Have you got a time- table?"
46090Let''s see, who''s lad are yo, sen yo?
46090Let''s see, wi''n yo have hard brade?
46090Let''s see; did''n yo gi''mo th''hawp''ny?...
46090Oh thou who dost these pointers see, That show the passing hour; Say,--do I tell the time to thee, And tell thee nothing more?
46090Scratching his head, and looking thoughtfully round among the houses, he said,"Scwofil?
46090She stopt me and said,"Meastur, hea fur han yo com''d?"
46090She was a good while in returning; so he shouted up the stairs,"Have n''t you found it yet, Mary?"
46090Sing heigho,"cried he;"Does my wife''s first husband remember me?"
46090Soon after this, Mary said to Jone,"Hasto gan thy horse aught, Jone?"
46090Th''new un hardly comes up to''t, i''my e''en-- as fine as it is.... An''are yo beawn back this gate, then?"
46090The first word spoken was--''What hast thou?''
46090The old woman, who had been listening behind us, with her hands clasped under her apron, now stepped up, and said,"Heaw lung sin?

46090They were singing one of Leech''s finest minor tunes, to Wesley''s hymn:-- And am I born to die, To lay this body down?

6018''A good scholar, sir?''
6018''Are you of that opinion as to the portraits of ancestors, whom one has never seen?''
6018''Ay, and what we''( looking to me)?
6018''Ay, sir,''he replied;''but how much worse would it have been, if we had been neglected?''
6018''But consider, sir; what is the House of Commons?
6018''But is not the case now, that, instead of flattering one person, we flatter the age?''
6018''But is there not reason to fear that the common people may be oppressed?''
6018''But what do you say, sir, to the ancient and continued tradition of the Church upon this point?''
6018''But what motive could he have to make himself a Laplander?''
6018''But, sir, if they have leases, is there not some danger that they may grow insolent?
6018''But,''said I,''if the duke invites us to dine with him to- morrow, shall we accept?''
6018''But,''said she,''is it not enough if we keep it?
6018''Do n''t you know that I can hang you, if I please?''
6018''Do you think, sir, that Burke has read Cicero much?''
6018''From whence, then, does all this money come?''
6018''Have you the Idler?''
6018''How can there,''said he,''be a physical effect without a physical cause?''
6018''If it were so, why has it ceased?
6018''Is he an oculist?''
6018''Nor no woman, sir?''
6018''Pray,''said he,''can they pronounce any LONG words?''
6018''Sir, do n''t you perceive that you are defaming the countess?
6018''Then Hume is not the worse for Seattle''s attack?''
6018''Upon what terms have you it?''
6018''Very rich mines?''
6018''What do you say to the Bishop of Meaux?''
6018''What if we had him here?''
6018''What is Pekin?
6018''What is to become of society, if a friendship of twenty years is to be broken off for such a cause?''
6018''What, sir?
6018''Why is not the original deposited in some publick library, instead of exhibiting attestations of its existence?
6018''Why, John,''said I,''did you think the king should be controuled by a parliament?''
6018''Why, sir, if moral evil be consistent with the government of the Deity, why may not physical evil be also consistent with it?
6018''Why,''said Sir Allan,''are they not all my people?''
6018A young lady of quality, who was present, very handsomely said,''Might not the son have justified the faults?''
6018About one he came into my room, and accosted me,''What, drunk yet?''
6018After saluting him, Malcolm, pointing to the sea, said,''What, John, if the prince should be prisoner on board one of those tenders?''
6018And had he not also a perpetual feast of fame?
6018And should not we tire, in looking perpetually on this rock?
6018And what was this book?
6018Are we not to believe a man, when he says he has a great desire to see another?
6018Are you baptized?''
6018Are you not rather too late in the year for fine weather, which is the life and soul of seeing places?
6018As I was going away, the duke said,''Mr Boswell, wo n''t you have some tea?''
6018At breakfast, I asked,''What is the reason that we are angry at a trader''s having opulence?''
6018Being told that Dr Johnson did not hear well, Lochbuy bawled out to him,''Are you of the Johnstons of Glencro, or of Ardnamurchan?''
6018But may it not be answered, that a man may be altered by it FOR THE BETTER; that his spirits may be exhilarated, without his reason being affected?
6018But what could he do?
6018But, as a learned friend has observed to me,''What trials did he undergo, to prove the perfection of his virtue?
6018Can you name one book of any value, on a religious subject, written by them?''
6018Consider, sir; what is the purpose of courts of justice?
6018Did he envy us the birth- place of the king?]
6018Did he ever experience any great instance of adversity?''
6018Do n''t you believe that I was very impatient for your coming to Scotland?''
6018Do n''t you know that, if I order you to go and cut a man''s throat, you are to do it?''
6018Do you think, sir, they ought to have such an influence?''
6018Dr Johnson again solemnly repeated''"How far is''t called to Fores?
6018Dr Johnson asked, what made the difference?
6018Dr Johnson said,''A wind, or not a wind?
6018Dr Johnson said,''How THE DEVIL can you do it?''
6018Finding that there was now a discovery, Malcolm asked,''What''s to be done?''
6018For, when I asked him,''Would not you, sir, start as Mr Garrick does, if you saw a ghost?''
6018From whom can it be, in this commerce, that I desire to hide any thing?
6018Garrick was asked,''Sir, have you a free benefit?''
6018He asked, how did the women do?
6018He asked,''Is this Mr Boswell?''
6018He had told me, that one day in London, when Dr Adam Smith was boasting of it, he turned to him and said,''Pray, sir, have you ever seen Brentford?''
6018He laughed heartily at his lordship''s saying he was an ENTHUSIASTICAL farmer;''for,''said he,''what can he do in farming by his ENTHUSIASM?''
6018He looked at me, as if I had talked of going to the North Pole, and said,''You do not insist on my accompanying you?''
6018He spoke of Prince Charles being here, and asked Mrs Macdonald,''WHO was with him?
6018How can you talk so?
6018I am desiring to become charitable myself; and why may I not plainly say so?
6018I asked if this was not unlucky: would not they hurt one another?
6018I put him in mind of it to- day, while he expressed his admiration of the elegant buildings, and whispered him,''Do n''t you feel some remorse?''
6018I said,''Would not the same objection hold against the Trinity as against transubstantiation?''
6018If this be the case, why are not these distinctly ascertained?
6018Is not a great part of it chosen by peers?
6018Is there shame in it, or impiety?
6018It was striking to hear all of them drinking?
6018Let Dr Smith consider: Was not Mr Hume blest with good health, good spirits, good friends, a competent and increasing fortune?
6018Let us consider; can there be more wanting to complete the Meditation on a Pudding?
6018M''Leod asked, what is the particular excellence of Burke''s eloquence?
6018Must we never have more convenience than Rorie More had?
6018Now, how low should a price be?
6018Of such ancestry who would not be proud?
6018Or is it, perhaps, better to be brought about by indirect means, and in this artful manner?
6018Pray, what do you know about his motions?
6018Quo vagor ulterius?
6018Sir, he would reason thus:"What will it cost me to be there once in two or three summers?
6018The contest now is, What HAS he?''
6018The landlady said to me,''Is not this the great Doctor that is going about through the country?''
6018The serjeant asked,''Who is this fellow?''
6018The wish is laudable: why should I form designs to hide it?
6018Tuesday, 14th September Dr Johnson said in the morning,''Is not this a fine lady?''
6018Was it upon that occasion that he expressed no curiosity to see the room at Dumfermline, where Charles I was born?
6018What can the M''Craas tell about themselves a thousand years ago?
6018What have your clergy done, since you sunk into presbyterianism?
6018What is it then that I am doing?
6018What is it to live and not to love?''
6018What made you buy such a book at Inverness?''
6018What part of Bayle do you mean?
6018What principle is there, why a loadstone attracts iron?
6018When Dr Johnson came in, she called to him,''Do you choose any cold sheep''s- head, sir?''
6018Which of all these dishes is unwholsome?''
6018Who CAN like the Highlands?
6018Why a tree grows upwards, when the natural tendency of all things is downwards?
6018Why an egg produces a chicken by heat?
6018Why do n''t we see men thus produced around us now?
6018Why does he not tell how to fill it?''
6018Why is not the form of the petition brought nearer to the meaning?
6018Why not as well be Rorie More all over, as live upon his rock?
6018Why, at least, does it not keep pace, in some measure, with the progress of time?
6018Your old preceptor repeated, with much solemnity, the speech How far is''t called to Fores?
6018but instantly corrected himself,''How can you do it?''
6018is this the case?''
6018or what degree of confidence should there be to make a bargain be set aside?
6018said Dr Johnson,''you must have a very great trade?''
6018sir, what can a nation that has not letters tell of its original?
6018who is it that I would impose on?
8540... My family?
8540Am I not a fortunate invalid,he said,"to have the most beautiful view in the world to look at?"
8540Any chance of seeing you-- without moving, for I''m suffering from weak heart, after two winter- contested elections in one year? 8540 How are we to make that''would- be''practical Assembly tell the Government to induce Portugal to put an end to so enormous a cultivation?"
8540Is there anything else?
8540What, then,he asked in 1902,"have the Tories done with the free hand that has been given them?
8540Why does not someone''discover''France?
8540Would you,I said,"admire the style if the matter were ill considered?"
8540''"Was there ever such a situation?
8540''"Will the letter which Sir George Chesney has do as a base, or would it be better to write a shorter and a fresh letter?
8540''At the same time I received a letter from Chamberlain in which he said:''"Have I turned round?
8540''Chamberlain and I were now intending to visit Ireland, but Manning declined to give us letters, and wrote on June 25th:"What am I to do?
8540''Chamberlain said that Randolph Churchill on the previous night had asked him,"Shall I come over?"
8540''On May 7th the Cardinal wrote:"How can the_ Standard_ have got the Irish scheme?
8540''On the 14th Lord Granville telegraphed to Baring:"Can you give further information as to prospects of retreat from(?
8540''The question now raised was-- at the end of what number of years?
8540A happy inspiration struck me, and I at once answered"Walsh"--a lucky guess which completely puzzled him, for he said,"Who told you?"
8540And after noting this will you return it to me, that I may send it to Sir George Chesney and then to Arnold- Forster?
8540And what intimate''s affection and respect for Sir Charles, and confidence in him, did not grow greater with every year?
8540And why does he snub the Caucus when he has made up his mind to do exactly what they want?
8540Are all these millions wasted?
8540Before Prince Edward wants an allowance who knows what may happen?
8540But I do not know that he was more successful, and I fear that his first question,"Has Russia any vulnerable points?"
8540But how can we join another Government without any settled policy about Egypt?
8540But-- what if it is not made?
8540Can anything more be done?"
8540Can nothing more be done?
8540Chamberlain wrote to me:"Why does Hartington think_ aloud_ when he thinks one thing and is going to do the other?
8540Discipline, nevertheless, seems perfect, but are the officers as good as the non- commissioned officers and the men?
8540Do you not think you would do well to reserve elbow- room for a case like this?
8540Do you see, as a consequence, Austria allying herself with Rumania and Turkey against Russia?
8540Had they fetched £50,000?
8540Harcourt''s alternative is impossible; then what is there?
8540Have you any suggestion to make?
8540He called everybody to bathe at 7 a.m., and where was ever better fresh- water bathing- place than the floating raft below the boat- house at Dockett?
8540He said,"Both sides are very cross, and each side asks,''What is to become of the other?''"
8540How can I be godfather to Hengist and Horsa?"
8540How can you share them if you are never shown they''re there?
8540How long can such a state of things last?
8540How many more will he get?
8540How was this demand to be met?
8540I do not think there would be any advantage in having any others, unless Rosebery?
8540I know that two days''delay was caused by the necessity of sending to Osborne and to the Prime Minister, but why seven days?"
8540I quite agree in your general view, but how can the bondholder be got to make sacrifices without his consent?'']
8540If so, to whom should he go?''
8540If the latter, will you try your hand at it, if you approve?
8540Is it desirable to say anything?
8540Is that to make no difference?
8540Is there any reason why at this moment they should part?
8540Is this view some invention of my own imagination?
8540Lord Granville had written to me:"Will you forgive my intruding two words of advice?
8540On January 10th Lord Granville had telegraphed to Baring, without my knowledge,"Would Gordon or Wilson be of use?"
8540Removal of Noosances?
8540Savez- vous qui est notre cuisinier?
8540Secretary to the Local Government Board:''_ Us_ to blame?
8540Shall we be listened to when war is over?
8540Should Sir Charles go into the witness- box, deny on oath the unsworn charges made against him, and submit himself to cross- examination?
8540Sir Frederick Roberts himself afterwards tried his hand at proposals of his own in a Memorandum entitled,"What are Russia''s vulnerable points?"
8540The first thing of all is to know_ what will the Government do?_ I know they have been in communication with Parnellites, and I hope with Parnell.
8540Under these circumstances what had I better do?''
8540W. D.''I_ hope_ it is true that Stansfeld is back?''
8540Were these words wise when used without the smallest preparation for war having been made?
8540Were we to insist, as we had done previously, on keeping the Germans off the north coast of the long eastern peninsula?
8540What are we to do?
8540What had been the main objection to the past management of the army in this country?
8540What have we gained by it?"
8540What more can I ask for or expect?''
8540What then?
8540What will be the end of it all?
8540Where do you put Dilke with them?"
8540Who, he asked, were the military authorities on whose advice the Government relied?
8540Whose congratulations do you think were the first that I received?"
8540Why do n''t you deal with the Chancellor( Lord Herschell), instead of with Labouchere, O''Shea, and so forth?
8540Why the d---- could he not wait till Parnell had quarrelled with the Tories?
8540Why will the papers invent differences between you and me?
8540Will he have the majority of the Liberals, following the party leader like sheep?
8540Will he have the majority of the Radicals?
8540Will not that be the time to part, if part we must, which I do not believe?
8540With Sir Charles Dilke''s life clear before us, if the question be put,"Was he happy?"
8540Would it not at least be best that we should call that conference on the first opportunity rather than have it thrust down our throats?
8540Would not the same influence prevail in the matter of education?
8540Would you ask money from one who has done so much for Greece?''
8540Would you kindly send this on to Granville?
8540Yet was his"the failure"?
8540because of my views upon this very point?"
8540for) army and residents at Khartoum, and measures taken?
7975''Come, come,''replied Mr. Hope- Scott,''do n''t you think it is time_ you_ should be looking into your accounts?''
7975''Do n''t you think,''replied Mr. Hope- Scott,''that the work in committee gives a man sufficient exercise?
7975''How could you leave me like that?''
7975''Oh, very well; I fall back on my old classics-- don''t you do the same?''
7975''Quid foditis vobis cisternas dissipatas?''
7975''Well,''said Mr. Hope- Scott,''but how about those_ past_ pages-- eh?''
7975''Why do n''t you go out?''
7975... Are we really to be beaten in this election[ for the Poetry Professorship]?
7975All_ lawful_ commands would involve a question-- what are lawful commands?
7975And my future-- how shall I secure it better than you can yours?
7975And who is there amongst you, my dear brethren, who does not, in some respect, owe him much?
7975And why have I done this?
7975Before this happened, meeting another friend in the street, who had wisely retreated in time, Mr. Hope- Scott asked him how he got on?
7975But how to assign to each his share in the mighty structure?
7975But may not caution obviate the latter?
7975But now, secondly, by way of contrast, what came of them?
7975But then I reflect, if I, who did not know him as he might be known, suffer as I do, what must be their suffering who knew him so well?
7975But who is there who knew the dear departed, who does not feel an irresistible impulse to turn from the dead to the living?
7975But who was watching this great design of Providence in its small beginning?
7975But you praise_ justly_ the''moderation and wisdom''of the R. C. clergy on the question of the hour-- why do you not imitate them?
7975Can a majority determine the doctrine of the Church?
7975Could we wish him back whom we have lost?
7975Could you burden yourself with the same resolution?
7975Could you let me into the guest- chamber at Littlemore?''
7975Dare I for you to blame The God who gave and took again, As though my joy was sent but to increase my pain?
7975Do you observe in the papers that Sir R. P. is designing_ great_ things for the Church?
7975Do, I entreat you, take_ rest_ at once-- and by rest I understand, and I suspect from Dr. Murray(?
7975Does it teach us to rely On the world, or pass it by?
7975Have they baptised Godfathers in Prussia?
7975Have you yet found gold on your estate?
7975He said to me, half playfully( for the article took some hold upon his sympathies),''What, Gladstone, never, never, never?''
7975How can I be the interpreter of their knowledge or their feelings?
7975How can it be otherwise, considering how many years of training in one posture we both of us underwent?
7975How was it his medical men did not know better?
7975I honour you even in what I think your error; why, then, should my feelings to you alter in anything else?
7975I must therefore ask, what is your general view as to Rome?
7975I suspect ye''discipline''to be one of ye safest, and with internal humiliation the best.... Cd you procure and send me one by B.?
7975I wonder whether Badeley is with you?
7975I wonder whether there will ever be a crisis and correction of the evil?
7975If all were now made clear to reason, where would be the exercise of faith?
7975If they have not, how can they be confirmed according to the Liturgy of the U. C. of E. and I.?
7975Is He not wiser and more loving than we are?
7975Is he to be ever marking passages?
7975Is it hope, or is it fear That attends our new- born year?
7975Is it not possible to_ commence_ by lives which will not at once bring the whole set into popular disrepute?
7975Is it then hopeless?
7975Is not this an intelligible ground?
7975Is rest in that department really favourable to religious inquiry?
7975Is that a sound rule of political action?
7975Is this contrary to your usage?
7975Is union with it immediately_ necessary_?
7975It is very easy to say, Give facts without comment; but in the first place, what can be so dry as mere facts?
7975It was the corporation of Liverpool.... Where was representation and taxation then, sir?...
7975Mastin is now tolerably effective?
7975Mr. X. stopped them, exclaiming,''Well, you two black Papists, how are you?''
7975Must its deep bays, once emptied of their sea, For ever waste, for ever silent be?
7975My babes, why were you born, Since in life''s early morn Death overtook you, and, before I could half love you, you were mine no more?
7975My dear Sir,--Permit me to ask you whether you can receive and answer a case of ecclesiastical law?
7975New Year''s Day returns again, Does it bring us joy or pain?
7975None, did I say?
7975Pray, does a_ majority_ bind in such a council?
7975Rather, who would not wish to have lived his life, and to have died his death?
7975Seldom, perhaps, can it be otherwise; but what would happen if all charity were measured by the deserts of the recipient?
7975Shall I do so?
7975Shall we trust the future more Than the time we''ve spent before?
7975Since you have had a specimen of the book( dose?
7975That, sir, will suit her purpose, but will it suit yours?...
7975The Church in which our lot has been cast has come to the birth, and the question is, will she have strength to bring forth?
7975The infant Christ, who lay On Mary''s breast to- day, Was He not born for you to die, And you to bear your Saviour company?
7975This is what may be said, and it is scarcely more than a truism to say it; for, undoubtedly, who will deny it?
7975Thus the old year taught thee: say, Thinkest thou that New Year''s Day Will these lessons sweep away?
7975Usual_ where_?
7975Was it for this you came?
7975Was it to make forlorn A father who had happier been If your sweet infant smiles he ne''er had seen?
7975Well, as she can not equal Liverpool, what is the next thing?

6625Call you these scholars?
6625Children?
6625Consider for a moment-- Who are we, and what do we mean by_ Ourselves_?
6625Could you not, for instance, let the world know something about monks and monasteries some day?
6625Did he learn nothing but lying and swearing and thieving when he was a child?
6625Did his father turn him out of doors?
6625Did his mother drink?
6625Did n''t he?
6625Did not the voice mean that?
6625Did she go away to some other home?
6625Did she proceed to wear the manly attire that she might be dagger- proof for the next encounter?
6625Did she retire from the world, and find refuge in a nunnery?
6625Did the orthodox party resort to prophecy, which is seldom very complimentary or cheerful in its utterances?
6625Did they all betake themselves to their several parishes and brave the peril and set themselves to the grim work before them?
6625Did you want to wrangle about the aspect of the fact, the evidence, the what not?
6625Die?
6625Do men whimperingly complain that there is no longer a career for genius?
6625Do you ask was he afraid?
6625Do you wish to understand the buildings?
6625Each man was lusting for all that was not his own; but free alms, where were they?
6625From what class or classes in society were the monks for the most part taken?
6625Had John Bonington lost_ his_ wife; and was he meditating a life of usefulness and penitence and prayer?
6625Had n''t he a son, Andronicus, who died of it?
6625Had not that audacious Bishop Walpole dared to speak plainly to his Grace the week before?
6625Had the plague broken out with any severity in East Anglia?
6625Has the world grown worse as it has grown older?
6625Has there been no progress, but only decline?
6625How about the_ moral fibre?_ Are we never to have stouter hearts or more"bowels and mercies?"
6625How about the_ moral fibre?_ Are we never to have stouter hearts or more"bowels and mercies?"
6625How could it be otherwise?
6625How could such evangelists fail to win their way?
6625How did it come to pass that Gibbon did not so much as allude to it?
6625How did it strike men down?
6625How did the clergy behave during the tremendous ordeal through which they had to pass?
6625How did the great bulk of the people comport themselves under the pressure of this unparalleled calamity?
6625How did their faith stand the strain that was put upon it?
6625How did their moral instincts support them?
6625How did they all get a livelihood?
6625How did they live, these young scholars in the early days?
6625How else are we to explain Archbishop Stratford''s stringent order in 1342 for the repression of the dandyism that prevailed among the young scholars?
6625How long would it take to write; or rather, when it was written, how long would it take to read?
6625How many poor nuns were taken who can guess?
6625How was it to be managed?
6625If it had not been for the monks how could all the village churches have been built?
6625If the latter, then who was to be the leader, who would make the first move?
6625In June no court was held-- was there a panic?
6625In the face of the same circumstances, will men for ever show themselves the same?
6625Is not that phrase"making allowances for,"a comparatively modern phrase?
6625It spared him and his old wife, it seems; but for his sons and daughters, the hope of his eld and the pride of his manhood, where were they?
6625It was a critical moment-- would they enter into rivalry or spiritual partnership?
6625Kinsfolk?
6625Let men but believe, to their shame, that The glories of our birth and state Are shadows, not substantial things, and what becomes of patriotism?
6625Must England wait too?
6625Must they recur again?
6625Pleasure?
6625Preach?
6625Riches?
6625Sentiment?
6625Seven years after the great Alfred had closed his eyes in death, and left to others the work which he had showed them how to do?
6625Some, peradventure, think of Rome and of Rienzi, and how it was about that time that he was potent, or was he in hiding there among the Fraticelli?
6625The assumption being granted, it may naturally be asked, How is such ignorance to be accounted for?
6625The elder men, and they who had consciences and hearts, shook their heads, and asked what could be done?
6625The next question usually asked is, Where did the new plague come from?
6625The question for them was, Could they do without him?
6625The tithe sheaf too-- how was it garnered in the barn?
6625Then, who was his heir?
6625They claimed to be prophets, but their mission, What was it?
6625Through what whimsical vagaries have the fashions changed?
6625To him it seemed that the Decalogue contained one wholly superfluous enactment; why should men covet?
6625Was Thomas Porter at Little Cornard somewhat past his prime when the plague came?
6625Was he missing?
6625Was he the clerk who, up to this time, had kept the Rolls so neatly, and who could not be easily replaced after he fell a victim to the plague?
6625Was his grandfather hanged for some crime, or was his great- grandfather a ruffian killed in a fight?"
6625Was there any confusion and despair?
6625Were the former times better than these?
6625Were they happy?
6625Were they, therefore, the worst of the new parsons?
6625What but their vast possessions, bringing with them luxury and the paralysis of devotion and of all lofty endeavour?
6625What could a year mean in the divine economy but the_ lunar_ year of 360 days?
6625What could you expect of people with such dreary surroundings?--what but that which we know actually was the condition of affairs?
6625What could"a time, times, and half a time"mean, but three years and a half?
6625What did they eat and drink?
6625What effects-- social, political, economical-- followed from a catastrophe so terrible?
6625What form will the new life assume in the time that is coming?
6625What glimpses do we get of the horrors or the sorrows of that time-- of the romantic, of the pathetic side of life?
6625What had corrupted the monks, whose lives should be so pure and exemplary?
6625What have we to do with thee, thou daughter of yesterday?
6625What is history but the science which teaches us to see the throbbing life of the present in the throbbing life of the past?
6625What purpose could they serve?
6625What record?
6625What remained but to obey?
6625What right had Thomas Porter to adopt the child?
6625What was to be done next?
6625What were kings and bishops and Lords and Commons to him?
6625What were the rabble to him?
6625What were they charged to proclaim?
6625What were those 1,260 days but the sum of the days of three years and a half?
6625What would we not give to know the history, say during only twenty years, of the labours of the Preaching Friars in England?
6625What_ they?_"Whose love knows no distinction but of gender, And ridicules the very name of choice!"
6625When and where would they appear?
6625When did it exist?
6625Where had the old strictness and the old fervour gone?
6625Who can adequately realize the horrors of that awful summer?
6625Who cared?
6625Who is this?
6625Who knows?
6625Who pities him?
6625Who reaped the harvest?
6625Who shall estimate the immeasurable harm that must be wrought to a nation that has lost touch with the past?
6625Why not again?
6625Why not try a thirteenth- century monastery next?"
6625Why should an inspired prophet argue?
6625Why should he burn a rushlight when there was nothing to look at?
6625Why should not there be a_ collegium_ of scholars?
6625Why should students and men of learning be expected to be holier than other people?
6625Why, where were you born?
6625Wife?
6625Will the Cambridge of six centuries hence be able to produce such a record of her past as that which she can boast of now?
6625_ Allowable?_ Yes!

55732And Charley, for whom I lost all, where is he?
55732And are these women calculated, by their manner, dress or appearance, to shock or warn people by their degradation?

55732He did not seem inclined to tell at first, but said sullenly,"you do n''t want her do you?
55732He faintly said in a childish voice:"What can I do for you, Sir?
55732Here a couple of men entered with kegs, and one of them, stepping up to me, asks:"Would you like to handle a large sum of money, Sir?"
55732I am with you this hevening, for what purpose, I hask?
55732I answered,"He says he feels pretty well?"
55732I asked a bystander what it was, and he answered with proper British pride:"Why, do n''t you know?
55732I asked myself"who has been the most popular and best loved American in England?"
55732I stepped back to the towing path and spoke to Mr. Wilkes, who asked of me"Who is that?
55732I suppose you want to see St. Giles?
55732If yer''ai nt got a h''apenny I thinks yer as well on the one side of the bridge as the other?

55732THE QUESTION THIS WEDNESDAY EVENING WILL BE"THE POPE''S MODEL LETTER,"WHERE ARE WE NOW?
55732The Lord High Steward puts the question to each peer in his seat, after the evidence has been heard;"Is the prisoner at the Bar Guilty or Not Guilty?"
55732The detective introduces me to this famous, or rather infamous, Messalina, and her first question is,"Will you stand some''Sham?''"
55732The executioner said:"Shall I assist you to disrobe, Lady Jane?"
55732The question, therefore, remains to be solved, is he an adulterer or not?
55732Then Lady Jane felt for the block, her eyes being bandaged, and groping, she said:"Where is it?
55732Then she knelt, and turning to Father Feckenham, the Queen''s chaplain, asked him:"Shall I say this psalm?"
55732To- morrow and Saturday I shall be hunting in Nottinghamshire, but if you are still in town, may I come to see you about five on Sunday afternoon?

55732What can be the matter with the man?"
55732What do I live for?
55732What more delicate flattery could be administered to a King than this?
55732What would such an expanse of land be in any other country but England, which is, in itself, a huge landscape garden?
55732When he got into the House, he asked some of the boys, who had been sphakin''?

55732Who was this lone, wretched girl, and why came she here at this hour?

46571And what do you do with the light ones?
46571And where have you been all the evening? 46571 Are you aware,"says the latter,"that your remarks have been very offensive to our French friend?
46571But do you know whom Macready caricatures or imitates? 46571 Did I call them beautiful?
46571Did you see that gas- lit rivulet at Vauxhall?
46571Do n''t you know that those pantomimes, for the most part, are nothing but a tissue of stale jokes taken at random from the last volume of_ Punch_?
46571Does it indeed prove all that? 46571 Have I not told your husband again and again"----"Are you again harping at the old theme?"
46571How did you say a- mu- sing? 46571 How do you like it?"
46571How does he speak?
46571How many copies?
46571Is it an invitation to Paris? 46571 Is not your loin of beef cut from Jütish ox, that was fattened on the Holstein marshes?
46571Just so, M. Gueronnay; an opinion after your own heart, is n''t it? 46571 May I ask,"said Sir John, after a short pause,"what can have shocked you in England within two hours after your arrival?"
46571Monsieur_ Enfin_,said Sir John, as he accompanied the Doctor to the door,"has been bothering you, but, dear me; what can you expect of a Frenchman?

46571What,asked I,"do you say to the romantic style of decoration which prevails in England?"
46571Whom? 46571 Why is her most gracious Majesty like a notorious pick- pocket?"
46571Why not? 46571 You allude to the sun of the mind?"

46571A foreign war?
46571A good deal of humbug about it, is n''t there?"
46571A letter is only one penny; and what is a penny?
46571A voice from the gallery:--"At your uncle''s, eh?"
46571Again, and again, do they inquire,"what he will give?"
46571Ah, my dear sir, where will you find it?"
46571Am I indeed in an assembly of English gentlemen, most revered and respectable Sir John?"
46571Am I not right?
46571Am I right, madam?"
46571Am I to understand that you did n''t like the piece?"
46571An accident perhaps?
46571An impertinent monkey alone shaded his eyes with his hands, and asked the sun where it came from, and whether there was not some mistake somewhere?
46571And can you believe that Providence could allow such a state of things to exist?
46571And did they ever make concessions to the crown at the expense of the people''s rights?
46571And how was it done, and when, and where?
46571And how, in the name of all that is charitable, are the London pickpockets to live if people will never stand still on any account?
46571And now what has been the result for_ the Beautiful_ and_ the Great_?"
46571And was there any one bitten by him?

46571And why waste even a thought on the reform of such trifles, so long as reform is needed in matters of greater importance?
46571Apprehensions, eh?
46571Are revolutions to be stamped out of the soil?
46571Are the British Nature''s favourites?
46571Are they over- due?--run a- ground?--wrecked?--lost?
46571Are they perhaps more disinterested, and our German literary men more selfish?
46571Are we to remain here and pursue our studies of the natural history of advertising vans?
46571Are you fond of philosophy and religion?
46571Are you my old friend Baxter?
46571Are you still of opinion, that the people of England are without dramatic affinities and theatrical instincts?"
46571Besides, how can you bridge the river so low down as this?

46571But for whom?
46571But how does Mr. H. employ his time after his half- hour''s turn in the gallery?
46571But how has this interesting little water- course fared under the hands of the illuminator?
46571But is there no legal scale of fares?
46571But is this all?
46571But power?
46571But what German, of our days, is not a refugee, or likely to be one?
46571But what Londoner can condescend to establish his household arrangements on the decimal system, or on the theory of miracles?
46571But what business-- so will German readers ask-- can detain an editor until late at night?
46571But what did a British Government do in those days of passion and terror?
46571But what do you say to this sort of thing?
46571But what if Russia were to send your own ships against you?
46571But what''s a vessel?
46571But when?
46571But who can tell how many miles he has gone in a cab?
46571But why did we go away?"
46571Can they not go to Paris; and do not Grisi, Mario, and Lablache also sing in Paris?
46571Can they thrive without sunlight and rain, without provocation from the higher regions?
46571Can this be Westminster Abbey, or is it a mere optical delusion?
46571Can you, in the face of this villanous cigar, muster the courage to talk to me of your government and your constitution?
46571Comfortable, is n''t it?
46571Did any one here ask for it?
46571Did malice go hand in hand with the administration of justice?
46571Did she do the deed?
46571Did she make a confession?
46571Did they fetter the press?
46571Did they invade and search the houses of the citizens?
46571Did they proclaim the state of siege?
46571Did they send you to the Guildhall for a_ carte de sureté_?
46571Did you see how at the slightest touch they separated?
46571Did''nt he bark with a loud voice, to the terror of the whole neighbourhood?
46571Do n''t you agree with me?
46571Do n''t you think one publication a week is more than enough?
46571Do the leading- article writers of the_ Times_ rather care for the effect which is produced by their anonymity?
46571Do the rights of mankind dwindle away as century follows century?
46571Do they rather care for the cause which they advocate than for their own celebrity?
46571Do you know what this beauty, with all the slenderness of her waist, and all the fulness of her shoulders, can never attain?
46571Do you want religion?
46571Does it perform the functions of a gate?
46571Does not the whole of the civilised world wear the cast- off clothes of Paris?
46571For what does the code of family morals enact and prescribe?
46571Go to Smithfield, and ask the sellers where they got that Homeric beef, to which the British owe their strength, humour, and political superiority?"
46571Has England gone back in education and refinement?
46571Has he not an aristocratic hand?
46571Have the police expelled you from London?
46571Have they resigned the smallest and least significant of their own prerogatives?
46571Have you left off your vests, etc.?
46571He asks where we have been; and when we tell him, he leans his head back, purses up his mouth, shuts his eyes, and says"Well?"
46571He could not deny the truth of the learned Doctor''s sally; yet if he admitted it, what-- ay, what was to become of the roast beef of Old England?
46571How are these two little volumes ever to give the Germans a proper idea of what London really is?
46571How can he dare to pinch my cheek as if I were but a child?"
46571How dare you scratch your head, and hold your pipe in your hand?
46571How dare you stand there you dolt?
46571How do you like it, Sir John?
46571How do you like the sketch?
46571How else could he manage to pay the interest on the national debt, and the army and navy estimates, and all the sundries?
46571How far different is this reading- room from anything we see at home?
46571How is it possible for a theatre to prosper?
46571How''s the_ Globe_?
46571I hope you have n''t seen a shark?
46571I mean the tunnel, what did it cost?"
46571I see many a country fellow in my time as funky as can be, and sweating, cause why?
46571I would say, from his Majesty the Emperor himself?"
46571If armed opposition is treasonable, was it less treasonable in days gone by?
46571Is it a challenge?
46571Is it a triumphal- arch?
46571Is it not chivalrous?
46571Is it not full of the most touching disinterestedness?
46571Is it their hypochondriacal climate?
46571Is n''t it practical?
46571Is not his chin round, his forehead white, and his toilet irreproachable?
46571Is not their vote the full and firm expression of popular opinion?
46571Is obesity a title to honours?
46571Is she innocent?
46571Is the greater moral excellence to be found here or on the other side of the channel?
46571Is their climate more genial; their soil more fertile than those of the countries we and others live in?
46571Is this prejudice or political wisdom?
46571Is this self- denial created by the mere desire of making money?
46571Is''nt a good honest bridge ten times cheaper and handsomer?
46571Just order me to play the dancing- master, eh?
46571Kick''s it into the middle of next week, eh?
46571Look you at flags, Silly, to find colours your own black, red, gold?
46571My dear Doctor, I put it to you; if those places and matters are not mentioned at all, how are the foreigners ever to understand what London is?
46571Need I add, that all these are strictly separate?
46571No altering the poop, no taking out boilers, no cutting in halves, eh?
46571No?
46571Nothing-- unless it be that they eat turtle soup, and_ patés de foie gras_?
46571Now tell me, most respectable Sir John, how do they teach history in your schools?
46571Now tell me, what is her behaviour?
46571Of course they can; but do you know what these carefully- trimmed fingers can not do?
46571On which side is the greater good-- and on which the worse evil?
46571Or has the great nation of England so small a mind that it can not distinguish between the merits of a cause and its success?
46571Or is it Church and State?
46571Resignation of ministers?
46571Shall I show you how we do it?"
46571Surely you can not have been out all night without some slight illness which will justify me in opening my medicine chest?"
46571That at the present day utilitarian tendencies are predominant, even in literature, who can deny?
46571That look means,"Have you caught a cold, you or any of you?
46571The question,"How do you like your room?"
46571Then another cup of tea for me?"
46571They are just starting-- whither?
46571They have not anything extra in those countries, have they?"
46571Wagner was at my service, cheap as any stale mackerel; but could I insult you by producing her?
46571Was it not the case of the German Titans, when a mere chance, an earthquake, flung the keys of the house within their reach?
46571Was such a thing ever heard of in a public office?
46571We cross a small court- yard, and mount a few steps( why should''nt we?)
46571We have had more of them than England, Germany, and Italy-- in fact, what is there that Paris has not?
46571We just saw workshops without men; why should there not be a library without books?
46571We looked at the Duke of Wellington riding over the field of Waterloo; and I said:''Could n''t you find a place for our Blücher?''
46571Well turned in the waist, eh?''"
46571Were Englishmen tried by courts- martial?
46571Were punishments inflicted for political opinions and thoughts?
46571What English author ever made a revolution?"
46571What Englishman but knows that curl which Doyle has so often caricatured in Punch?
46571What are these two gentlemen doing?
46571What can the parcel contain?
46571What did you do with your friend?"
46571What do the Aldermen?
46571What do they make this illumination for?
46571What do you say to it?"
46571What does a bachelor care for a three- legged chair, a broken window, a ricketty table, and a couple or so of sportive currents?
46571What does it all matter?
46571What does the Lord Mayor?
46571What is an excursion on the Thames without the mystic fog of Romanticism?
46571What is it you allude to?"
46571What is the matter?
46571What right has the City to such honours, now that London has long since engulphed it?
46571What then are the effects of the London winters, of the gloomy foggy days, the cold rainy nights, and of the changeable English weather?
46571What was his English prejudice?"
46571What would those poor nations come to, plagued and hunted down as they are, if deprived of the comforting amenities of a kindly sociability?
46571What''s the good of that wigged fellow reading when no one listens to him?
46571What, in the name of all that is liberal, can be the use of that tunnel, I should like to know?
46571Where are the merits of the City?
46571Where in all the world can such fogs and such a pestilential atmosphere be found, except in London?
46571Where, out of England, can you find such beautiful green meadows, and so mild an air, in November?
46571Which is it to be?
46571Which of these lamps shall I select for the lighting of my cigar?"
46571Who and what is that man?
46571Who are they?
46571Who has not heard of that famous article of furniture?
46571Who is this"manager,"and what are his functions?
46571Who would gainsay it?
46571Who, in the name of all that is prudent, can the people be who make such a shocking waste of gas?
46571Why all those corners on the eastern side, and why those small narrow shops?
46571Why should English editors be at their post until three or four o''clock in the morning?
46571Why should I express my gratitude to the hand that is held out to me in getting in?
46571Why should he?
46571Why should he?
46571Why should there be a begging of pardon when every one is convinced that the kick was accidental, unintentional, and that no offence was meant?
46571Why should they go to your Italian Opera House?
46571Why should you rest in this town?
46571and how does it happen that the period of the Garricks, Kembles, and Siddons did not create and lead you to a better taste?
46571cried he at last;''do you think they can order a fleet as they would a cargo of cheese?
46571le Docteur, are your adventures so very important that they depend on the minute?"
46571or the offer of a pension?"
46571said I;"then he''s a dandy?"
46571the public- house or a lot of oysters?
46676''Will I, yer honour? 46676 Afraid of holy spirits?"
46676And Susie?
46676And after that?
46676And after that?
46676And how did folks in the years gone by prevent frosts, and blights?
46676And the maids would reply--''Will you marry one of my daughters, one of my daughters?''
46676And the maids,I said,"did they have no part in the merry- making?"
46676And then, Bess?
46676And what happened afterwards?
46676And what saved''em?
46676Are you ready?
46676But how about the apples? 46676 But in old days, if I had wanted a housemaid or a scullery- maid, what should I have done?"
46676But supposing Mouse objected?
46676But supposing that you are not rich, that you have n''t money in your purse, or a cheque- book from the bank like papa?
46676But surely your brother does n''t believe that_ now_?
46676But what had that to do with cock- fighting?
46676But what has happened to your brother?
46676But why, Thady, have they sent you?
46676But you wo n''t like to hurt butterflies, Bess?
46676But, mum, may I take some pins from your pincushion? 46676 But, my dear,"I began,"if it was all play, how would you ever learn to read or to write?
46676But,I asked,"how about Tramp and Tartar?
46676Can you repeat to me any of the rhymes?
46676Cock- fightin''?
46676Could it have been a poisoned rose?
46676Did I mind?
46676Did n''t I work here fifty years agone, in the old days? 46676 Did they put spurs on them?"
46676Did you enjoy yourself at Hals''birthday?
46676Did you ever see a bull baited?
46676Did you mind very much?
46676Do n''t you want the blankets, mama?
46676Do yer take me for a loseller, marm?
46676Do yer think that I have nought to do, but to stump through wood and field, pulling blows for a May folly?
46676Do you feel better now?
46676Everything?
46676For whom,cries the grief- stricken old man,"did I reserve the discovery of that singular affection that I had for him in my soul?"
46676Has Benjamin been able to work all these years?
46676Have you anything pretty to show us?
46676Have you done?
46676Have you ever been there?
46676Have you ever seen much of that?
46676Have you no water at home, my child, that you come here?
46676He is most fascinating,I answered, watching my new pet;"but how can I catch him flies?"
46676How about doing disagreeable things, Bess? 46676 How about heaven, then, being quite a perfect place?"
46676How did it happen?
46676How much? 46676 How much?"
46676How was that?
46676How, little one, will you do that?
46676I fear you suffer?
46676Is it a good thing to get a blessing?
46676Is n''t it pretty?
46676Is n''t she greedy?
46676Is that you, Hals?
46676Is the world better, Timothy,I asked,"for the abolition of the stocks, and pillory?
46676Is there nowhere,pursued my little girl,"where one can buy a brother?
46676Leave the eggs, and what for will her leddyship do that?
46676Madame se porte mieux?
46676Mama,she said reprovingly,"where have you been?
46676May n''t I come in?
46676Me?
46676Miss Bess is all right?
46676Mum, Mum, you''re not dead?
46676Mum, Mum,answered Bess, impatiently,"you must leave the poor Lord a few rats, or what would his poor dogs do?"
46676Mum,replied Bess, dreamily,"I am thinking and thinking----""Yes, dear?"
46676Mum,said Bess, as I lifted her off Jill''s back,"could you spare me one of the snowdrops to keep in my own nursery?"
46676Must one really do that,asked Bess sadly,"before one can give anything?"
46676No damage done by the snow?
46676No, no, mum; but what if the pug was to catch cold?
46676Nothing wrong in the garden?
46676Nothing wrong, nurse?
46676Overlooked?
46676Perhaps cursed and swore and scratched; but, even then, had she no father or mother to forgive her?
46676Shall I have this sent to the Abbey?
46676Sugar and sunshine, what more can a bee desire?
46676Suppose he did n''t come by this train, what would you do then?
46676The cock''nope,''as you call him, is so beautiful,I urged,"that surely he may have a few buds in spring, and later on get a little fruit?
46676The old squire, when he seed the lad ride like that, said at the finish--''Will you come back and whip in for me, for yer be the right sort?''
46676Then I said,''Why do you like''em like that? 46676 Then the lasses used to answer,"she told us,"and cry out--"''And what is your intent, sirs, intent, sirs?
46676Then the second lot,as Nana called the lasses,"answer back, and shout--"''Who have ye come to gather away?''
46676Was n''t that rather hard?
46676Was the sale effected?
46676Was there not a belief that a cock hatched in an owl or magpie''s nest was sure to have luck in the ring?
46676Was your brother better?
46676Well, Thady, how did it happen?
46676Well, Thady,I said,"what has brought you here?
46676Well, what happened?
46676Well,I pursued,"but what are you going to do?"
46676Well,I said,"what is it?"
46676Were there any penances in your time, Timothy?
46676Were they good games?
46676What did they do?
46676What did you do at the Wakes, and how long did they last?
46676What did you do?
46676What did you say?
46676What does I want it for?
46676What dost thee stand there for, loselling?
46676What else have you got?
46676What is it for?
46676What is it?
46676What is it?
46676What is it?
46676What is it?
46676What is that?
46676What is the use of London?
46676What ones?
46676What was the name of his horse?
46676What ways?
46676What will Miss Weldon do?
46676What would you do?
46676What''s the matter, little girl?
46676What, dear?
46676When I got in, Nell, her comed up to me and her says,''What ails thee, Betty?'' 46676 When did old Tom die at last?"
46676Where does he live?
46676Where is the nest?
46676Which is?
46676Who was sweet Maude, and who was Corney Rodgers?
46676Why are n''t you glad to go-- glad as I am, mamsie?
46676Why can not governesses smoke?
46676Why do n''t beautiful things happen much oftener? 46676 Why do n''t you beat me, why do n''t you shake me, or do something?"
46676Why does she behave like that?
46676Why not?
46676Why should poor children?
46676Why should she mind?
46676Why should they all be jolly because the poor gentleman died?
46676Why?
46676Why?
46676Will there be cake-- my favourite cake?
46676Will you bring one down?
46676Wo n''t you have a cup of tea?
46676Worse,asked Bess,"than taking horrible, nasty, filthy medicines, worse than going to have teeth taken out by the dentist?"
46676Yes, Bess,I inquired;"but what did you do?"
46676Yes, Burbidge, but how about your brother?
46676Yes?
46676You are not cold, child?
46676You here, Susie?
46676Your brother, Burbidge?
46676_ Why, their own tongue._"What is it like?
46676''And who will you send to fetch her away?''
46676''What be yer lookin''round here for?''
46676And if Hals did n''t find some one to meet him, what would he say?"
46676And in answer to my inquiry,"What swans?"
46676And them,"alluding to the rooks,"them only spoils old things, does them, mamsie?"
46676And then will you say that nobody-- nobody is to go near us?"
46676And when I asked why for?
46676And when you grew up and got quite big, you would n''t like to be quite ignorant and to know nothing, would you?"
46676Are they still growing?
46676As we drove home, Bess suddenly turned round and said--"Mamsie, why ca n''t they buy blankets?"
46676Bell- horses, bell- horses what time of day?
46676Besides,"I asserted,"I must introduce them carefully; what if our old friend should be jealous or''unsympathetic''like another old friend?"
46676Bess listened open- mouthed, and at the end exclaimed--"Why has God given me so much, and to poor children, then, so little?"
46676But oh, mama, could it-- could it really be?"
46676But what sort of apple was it?"
46676But why choose, for are not both God''s feathered choristers, and their songs our earliest melodies of childhood?
46676But why should papa only have dogs as a matter of course?
46676Can you love me really and truly when you know what I''ve done-- really love me again?"
46676Could greater praise be given?''
46676Could it be a real robber?"
46676Did yer ever hear, marm, the story of how Seth Yates sold his wife?"
46676Did"holy Mr. Herbert"ever pace that old pleasure- house, I have often asked myself, as a little lad?
46676Do we love flowers less?
46676Every one war feared of Nanny,"added old Betty,"for they felt before her as innocent as a child, and what war there as she could n''t do to them?
46676Hals and Bess followed, panting and crying out eagerly,"Where, where?"
46676Have we forgotten how to laugh and sing in village and hamlet, and is merry England steeped in grey mists?
46676How did you know it?"
46676I asked her what was the matter?
46676I carried my flowers reverently, for were they not the first promise of spring, the smile, as it were, of the scarce known year?
46676I could not refrain from asking;"what happened to her?"
46676I have often asked myself; or have they perished like the Stuart line and cause?
46676I opened my lattice window and inquired what they were about to do?
46676I opened the conversation by asking him from where he came?
46676I remembered at the end of my first visit my kind host asking me amongst his rare and beautiful flowers, what I had most admired?
46676I said before starting,"Is there nothing I ought to take to her?"
46676I was puzzled for a moment, but at last I stammered out,"Where?
46676In what English household would it be possible to get the same amount of trouble taken?
46676Is there anything better than a day out in the heart of the country?
46676It was an easy matter to put Bess into a fresh dry frock and into a clean white pinafore, but what could be done with Harry?
46676Just as Constance was leaving, Bess rushed in and seized my friend''s hand, and called out impetuously,"Have you told mamsie?
46676May I come-- I want to, I want to?"
46676May I?
46676May I?"
46676No?"
46676Now, why ca n''t we always have carnations and roses?
46676O, if thou have Hid them in some flowery cave Tell me where?
46676Old Shropshire folks still repeat to their grandchildren, when they see a carrion crow--"Dead''orse, dead''orse, Where?
46676Strong light often dazzles, and, after all, are we not all children groping in the dark?
46676Then I stood up and answered bold,''Is it the big hawk that your honours want, or the fern owl, the sheriff- man, or any other fowl?''
46676Then, after a while, she suddenly fell into a reflective mood, and asked what are the best ways of forgetting that you are waiting?
46676Was it a better world, I have often asked myself, when women loved their spinning- wheels and tambour- frames?
46676Was it of such a man that the great essayist wrote,"A man having such a friend hath two lives in his desires"?
46676Was the world, when it sang at its work, a happier or jollier world?
46676We know that God ca n''t have ugly boys in His garden, or what would the poor girl angels do?
46676What can it be?"
46676What could so young a child have done to merit death?"
46676What did the young men do in the orchards?"
46676What does her mean,"asked the old man, in a tone of righteous wrath,"by finding it dull in her native town?
46676What happened to fair Alice, I have often asked myself, in the time of trouble that was soon to come?
46676What papers, I wondered, have lain there?
46676What would she not have agreed to, to gain her point?
46676When I came to this part of the register, she broke out indignantly with--"Why could n''t they leave_ our_ abbot alone?
46676When yer go to her leddyship''s sports it must be clad as the best of''em,''and where were my boots to begin with?"
46676Where are the gardens of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries?
46676Where were the gardens of"the Hesperides?"
46676Where?
46676Where?"
46676Who knows?
46676Why does one not get up every morning?
46676Why is the society of old servants so delightful to children?
46676Why miss daily the enchantments of morning?
46676Why should poor children be taken to London?
46676Would parson mind?
46676[ Sidenote: BOURTON BOY''S REQUEST]"Why do n''t you give him lettuce, too?
46676[ Sidenote: HALS ARRIVES]"Fräulein is not here?"
46676[ Sidenote: HOW COULD I BE SO NAUGHTY?]
46676[ Sidenote: OLD MAY DAYS] Is the world less merry, I asked myself, since old Timothy''s grandam danced beneath the May- pole?
46676[ Sidenote: THE COMPANY OF SAINTS]"Are you not afraid to sit by yourself?"
46676[ Sidenote: WHERE ARE THE GARDENS OF THE PAST?]
46676[ Sidenote:"I WANT TO BE HAPPY"] As we drew up before the door, Bess exclaimed, regretfully--"Oh, mama, why has it all stopped?
46676_ From an Engraving after a Drawing by Paul Sandby, R.A._]"Was that possible?"
46676he answered--"Did n''t yer hear, mam, about the great birds?
46676inquired Bess,"the one that Hals likes best of all, with apricot jam and chocolate on the top?"
46676where be Tom?''

47386''Can I get thee owt?'' 47386 ''How dost a''know?''
47386''How much is it?'' 47386 ''Is owd Greenwood''s son, Jim, going to confirmation class too?''
47386''No more can I,''said I;''but I''d like to know?'' 47386 ''Well, then,''said she,''may Miss H----n stop with you?''

47386''Win''t thee look out o''chamber window and see if there''s a leet i''t''school?'' 47386 And who''s Will o''th''Jumps?"
47386And your butter- milk too?
47386Are you ready?
47386Can you let me have shelter for a little while, and then a guide to Arncliffe?
47386Did you ever hear such a woman?
47386Did you reach the bottom?
47386Did you think to find London streets paved with gold?
47386Do you drink your water warm, Job?
47386Do you wear these?
47386Dost a''mean that I''m to take thee as a lodger?
47386Farmer,said I, after a pause,"have you plenty of rope about your house?"
47386Good evening, friend,said I;"I''m a stranger lost on the moor: can you direct me towards Arncliffe?"
47386Had he any clothes on, and, if so, what were they like?
47386Have I, Doctor?
47386Have n''t I, my lady?
47386He inquired of the aforenamed persons,we are told in his Autobiography,"whether they heard anything?
47386How can you say so,he replied,"when I have your own receipt showing that I paid you for it?"
47386How does it look on the neck?
47386How far to Arncliffe?
47386I reckon thou''st not been stopping this time at Moor House?
47386I suppose Mrs.---- is expecting me?
47386I suppose you are Mr.----, from Thirsk?
47386Is she not enough to drive a man mad? 47386 Is that intended as a personal remark?"
47386It''s rare good now, is n''t it?
47386Jemmy,asked Captain Bolton,"did you think you were drowning in the wash- tub?
47386My friend, are you really blind?
47386Nay,answered Jemmy,"dost see any green in my eye?
47386Now tell me, gaffer, can one see as far as America, do you think?
47386One can see a deel furder,answered John"You do n''t mean to say so?"
47386Please, sir,said Jemmy, affecting simplicity,"was there a thorn in the seat?
47386Shall we have a bit of moon, think you, presently?
47386Shall you have time to assist me?
47386So you think the wretched man perished in one of the pots?
47386T''parish paid one burying: who was to pay me for digging her up and putting her in ageean, if she died once maire? 47386 Then Tom opens his eyes and looks at un and ses,''Owt fresh?''
47386Then how comes it filled?
47386Then how should it be?
47386Thou''rt none boune to Arncliffe to- neet?
47386We can gi''thee a bed if thou likes: it''s no but a poor one, but it''s none so bad-- eh, lass?
47386What do you mean by deserting me like this?
47386What do you mean? 47386 What do you mean?"
47386What do you mean?
47386What hast a''been thinking on then, Job? 47386 What is for dinner to- day?"
47386What is the matter?
47386What?
47386When will he shave off his beard?
47386Where was the cellarer?
47386Who are the Boggart and Peggy?
47386Why, Peter,said his loving spouse,"whativer is t''matter wi''thee?
47386You care nothing about a goose, do you?
47386You dug her up at once, of course, man?
47386You have had some liquor this morning, I suppose?
47386''And who do you think is going to pay a shilling a- piece to go by the packet?
47386''Are you going home to- night?''
47386''Do you think that I will go to Selby in a waggon, or Miss H----n either?
47386''Dost a''like it?''
47386''Now, then,''thinks I,''how am I ever to sup my te- a?
47386''What dost a''mean by having a standing- up shadow and solid too?''
47386''What''s that, Peter?''
47386''Who do you mean will go?''
47386''Who is they?''
47386''Will ye hev some more?''
47386--"What do you mean?"
47386--"Why, my good sir, what makes you think so?"
47386--"Will you believe your own eyes?"
47386--''Weel, James,''ses she,''what''s ta doing wi''thysen noo?''
47386----?"
47386A friend, when he heard that I was collecting such material, exclaimed,"What are you about?
47386A person coming up, asked,"What road are you for?"
47386And also he said to Mr. Stainthorpe,"Am I advertised in the Newcastle papers?"
47386And what dost a''think he seed?
47386And when she gave it to him she added,"Now, Johnny, honey, you''ll get these deeds made the same as the others?"
47386Are ye married?"
47386Are you in earnest?"
47386Are you the person who wrote to me?"
47386As I stood gazing thereon a man advanced towards me, and said,''Where shall we find bread for so great a multitude?''
47386At length Metcalf said,"Did not you hear something speak in the church?"
47386But how are we to go?''
47386But what women ai n''t got''em?
47386But who is this that has caused them to err?
47386Charges of the most gross immorality have been brought against James Naylor, whether truly or falsely who can now decide?
47386Could this not have been his wife, impatient at him leaving his bed and rambling about so early?
47386Did the Catholics build that too?"
47386Did you say your prayers in it?"
47386Dost thou see how it''s pouring?
47386For why should priests be always grave?
47386Hast a''come to steal my apples and pears?"
47386Hast a''made_ thy_ will, Tommy?"
47386He exclaimed, seemingly pleased,"Have I?"
47386He said,"Have you heard that Old Sammy''s murdered?"
47386He says ageean,''What does this mean, Peter?''
47386He smoked for ten minutes more, and then said:"And what brought thee this road?"
47386He then told me that he had taken the old man by the neck, and was afraid he had killed him; and I said,''Surely thou hast not hurt the old man?''
47386He went up to the room in which his brother lay, and began--"Weel, Tommy, an''hoo art a''?"
47386His supplication, as I afterwards heard, would have melted any heart, crying,''What will become of me?
47386How was money to be raised?
47386I inquired of him,''How wast thou before thy sight was restored?''
47386I mean who made the clock strike?''
47386I said, in a contemptuous manner,''I have also been informed that thou hast been visited with visions or trances; what hast thou seen?''
47386I went up to him and said,''Come, Mr. Nicholson, wo n''t you go home?
47386I''d kenned her afore, a piece back; soa shoo comes oop to me, an''shoo ses,''Why, James, lad, is that thee?''
47386If I''d dug her up and she lived ever seah( so) long, what would ha''t''rate- payers''a said teah( to) me?"
47386Is it so sad to be a parson?
47386It''s like I should come down to get a whipping, is n''t it?"
47386Jemmy heard every word that had been said, and he sat chuckling to himself, and muttered,"So thou''lt come again to- morrow night, wilt thou?
47386Just as it disappeared my friend said,''Did you see that?''
47386Metcalf, however, pressing the reward upon him, was asked,"Can you see very well?"
47386Mrs. Nicholson at length said,''Come, lasses, ca n''t you raise a song?
47386Nicholson?"
47386Noo, Tommy, hoo wast a''thinking o''leaving thy money?"
47386Noo, who wast a''thinking o''making thy heir, James?"
47386On hearing two of them cock their pieces, he asked,"What do you want with him?"
47386Once in particular, hearing a cough, they said one to another,"What is that?"
47386Or did the Bishop( not the Earl) of Rochester''s poems on the man- like properties of a lady''s fan ever impeach his orthodoxy in the least?''
47386Phoebe and I were sitting by t''fire, when all at once I ses to my old woman,''Phoebe, lass, where''s Rachel Anne?
47386Shall I fling him in again, my lord?
47386So he thowt,''What am I to do next?
47386Soa I taks a cup i''my hand; and then says he,''Weant ye hev sum sugar and cre- am?''
47386Soa t''fellow says to me,''Is there owt partickler ye''d like?''
47386Soa then there comes a smart chap wi''a tray full of cups o''tea, and he says to me,''Will ye hev sum?''
47386Such occurrences as the following frequently happened:--''Well, Snowden, how do you do?''
47386THE CLERK OF INDICTMENTS.--"Are you guilty or not guilty?"
47386The common question of the whole neighbourhood was,''What had I been doing?''
47386The first question he asked Mr. Stainthorpe was,"Do you belong to York?"
47386Then John Wroe took the prophetic rod, and thrusting it towards Lindsay, thundered forth,"Dost thou come to defy Israel?
47386They asked me, if I had found the pistol, would I really have shot the Bishop?
47386They both rose on his entrance, and he, accosting Martin, asked,"Is not your name Jonathan Martin?"
47386To this he refused to accede, and ultimately succeeded in persuading the Indian( African?)
47386To which, of course, I answered,''Yes; did you?''
47386Tozer got up and said,"Friends, what must be my feelings at this time?
47386Was it by this woman who tossed him about?
47386What art a''doing i''yond water- pit?

47386When Brother Jucundus accordingly appeared in the cloisters, no monk turned to look at him, or asked him"how the saints he had come there?"
47386When his horse was freed, he asked,"Is there no other road?"
47386When the train drew near to York, the ticket- collector came round, and exclaimed at this half- ticket,"Where''s the child?"
47386Where was he?
47386Where were they next to be conveyed to, so as to be readily removed?
47386Which wilt a''have-- a pair o''my list breeches and rabbit- skin coat, or my old housekeeper''s petticoats and gown?"
47386Who cared whether the old goodies in the hospital were ministered to or not?

47386Why should not thou and me make it agreeable to live together?"
47386Why, Beaumont, where did you pick up that ridiculous object?

47386You can be up by that time?''

46223But are these, even were they not subject, as unfortunately too often happens, to the most scandalous abuses, the right means to the end?

46223But is it possible that you can find room for fears that these two years of absence can have changed me towards you?
46223But is not the true unmixed friendship of a charming woman something very sweet?

46223But what was the result?
46223But where is my Judy?
46223But wherefore do I urge this?
46223Can I be blind at such repeated proofs of special interposition in my favour?
46223Can anybody wonder that such institutions have frequently goaded the unhappy people to despair and rebellion?
46223Can not I string common- places as well as another upon occasion?
46223Canning was but a transient vision; and how are his successors employed?
46223Confess it now,--you are a Jew, ar''n''t you?"
46223Dearest Julia, will you drive with me to Plâs Newydd, Lord Anglesea''s park in Anglesea?
46223Did not my life hang upon a hair?
46223Did you ever hear of such mad visions as haunt me here?
46223Do I then want phrases?
46223Do not these on this very account wear the appearance of the bitterest irony?
46223Do you remember Clementi Brentano?
46223Do you remember the young parson at Bray?
46223Does this mean that William wanted no rein to ride John Bull?
46223Even happiness, supposing it to be attained, always brings with it the bitter thought, How long will it last?
46223For what is enjoyment without security?
46223Had this spiritual individual whom I call_ myself_, any previous existence connected with another form?
46223Has he distinguished himself in a revolution, or a counter- revolution?
46223Has it not ever been the many who have proscribed and persecuted them?
46223Have I described him to you?
46223Have they whiskey there?"
46223Have you not enough of this yet, dear Julia?
46223He asked me if I had yet seen many of the curiosities of Ireland?
46223He robbed the public of an inestimable treasure; but who can blame him?
46223He was asked"how much a cubic foot of wood weighed?"
46223How many men have called, and do call, themselves after his name; and how many are_ true_ Christians?
46223How then was it possible for a nearly barbarous people to erect such masses, or to transport them thirty miles, the distance of the_ nearest_ quarry?
46223I gave him leave, and asked, laughing, what adventure he had in hand?
46223I have met with few descriptions that have amused me more: and my translation,--extremely good, is it not?
46223I hug myself amazingly on this discovery;--who knows if it will not throw some light on Chinese mythology?
46223I must ask one more question;--why ruins have so much stronger an effect on the mind than the highest perfect specimen of architectural beauty?
46223I must inquire into it immediately,--a secret of state perhaps,--who knows?
46223I rang for him, recapitulated the above facts, and asked, looking earnestly at him, if he had found nothing?
46223I therefore asked,"Will Fortune be more favourable to me in more serious projects?"
46223I turned and saw-- nothing:--But how?
46223I understand you,"said he laughing; and called to the chief of his eunuchs,"Musa, how many daughters have I?"
46223I wonder whether Providence also will bestow an Order on me?
46223If a minister or a general is a great man,--who can deny that the best of cooks, the loveliest of opera- dancers, has great merit?
46223If we can scarcely conceive that_ all_ will become new, how can we so suddenly conceive a new_ All_?
46223Invocations, prayers, promises, were in vain:--Was it a smuggler allured to this coast by the ample facilities it offers?
46223Is he a warrior or a statesman?
46223Is it not by her most magnificent and sublime spectacles that she awakens our hearts to emotions of piety?
46223Is it not obvious that he jests at Providence and its omnipotence?
46223Is not enjoyment and well- being manifestly throughout the world the positive natural state of animated beings?
46223Is not suffering, evil, organic imperfection or distortion, the negative shadow in this general brightness?
46223Is not this-- to say nothing of the immorality-- in the highest degree low and undignified?
46223Is this selfishness?
46223Madame de Rothschild was the first: she asked, whether her wishes would be fulfilled?
46223Many clergymen still ask,"Do you believe in the Devil?"

46223Now, dear Julia,''est- ce moi ou le diable qui écrira le reste?''
46223O''Connell''s?"
46223On the other side, Length of days was denied him: What were his works and his deeds?
46223Passages of this sort ought certainly to be differently understood: for how could they be reconciled with the indispensable laws of our station?
46223Perhaps you send your pious commands from afar?
46223Pity he did not answer,"How much does a gold coin weigh?"
46223Pointing to a good crop, he cried out with enthusiasm,"Is not that a magnificent sight?"
46223Shall I send you a specimen?
46223Shall I then prepare for myself such an innocent festival, and fly across the sea to you?
46223She cried out eagerly, while she slapped my arm impatiently with her little velvet hand,"Come, are you afraid?
46223She frightened him by suddenly calling out in her sleep,"Will the Premier stand or fall?"
46223Should not I have been a perfect fool, now, to distress myself without a cause?
46223Some may ask,''A quoi bon tout cela?''
46223Stinging enough, is it not, Julia?
46223The answers had always some double meaning; for instance,''Shall we have a good bed?''
46223The breadth, power, truth and life of the old masters, their technical knowledge of colouring,--where are they now to be found?
46223The conversation fell upon her works, and she asked me how I liked her Salvator Rosa?
46223The road branched off into two divisions, and I asked her which I must take to reach Derrinane Abbey?
46223This great man has anything but the face of a man of genius,--and who knows whether posterity will think his deeds betray more than his face?
46223Thus captivating, and easily captivated, was it a wonder if he stole the palm even out of the hand of Edward Lynch?
46223Walking quickly up to the ominous chair, she asked the chamberlain on duty, with lips quivering with passion,''Where was her seat?''
46223Was this a Dutch woman?
46223Was truth on the side of the fanatical herd who gave the poison- cup to Socrates?

46223What is a gentleman?
46223What is a''Monkey?''
46223What is conscience?
46223What is good or evil fortune?
46223What is the modern_ Trilliliren_ compared with the sublimity of that old church music?
46223What is unhappy man in conflict with physical evil,--and where, then, is the freedom of his will?
46223What may the old boy have been?--perhaps myself in another garment?
46223What revolution was it that threw this tract of sand here?
46223What will be the consequences of his death?
46223What would an illiberal one have done?
46223What would our_ Regiérungs Räthe_( Government counsellors) say to such a scheme?
46223What would the haughty Duke have said, if he could have known how his remains would be treated by such ignoble hands?
46223What, you wo n''t get up?
46223Whence comes it, thought I, that a heart so loving is not social?
46223Who can blame them, therefore, under circumstances, for preferring the chambers of princes, especially if they can lord it there?
46223Who can look intently on the sublime and holy beauty of those glittering worlds, and not be penetrated by the deepest and the sweetest emotions?
46223Who can withstand entreaties so humorously moving?
46223Who could then have predicted that he would so soon be ignominiously beaten by a mob, and shot as a criminal?
46223Who ought to bear the blame?
46223Who would not, without a moment''s hesitation, give everything in the world to enjoy the blessedness of being perfectly good?
46223Whose mouth does not water when he sees Dalgetty, the soldier of fortune, display at the table a prowess even greater than in the fight?
46223Why did you not put on your uniform to come to see me?
46223Why is not this sublime instrument oftener introduced into church music?
46223Why not employ every art in its highest perfection, in order to consecrate to God the noblest, the finest works that the human faculties can produce?
46223Why should we not devote all our best powers to the honour of him who gave them?
46223Why was it so long on the road?--''Quien sabbe?''

46223Young shot- up things are laughing by stealth behind our backs: flying out and in; and when one of them asks"What are the old people about?"
46223[ 114] To add a word in earnest: I would ask, who does not honour the humane motives which gave rise to the Bible and Missionary societies?
46223[ 129]"And where do you come from?"

46223and why she was wandering alone in such weather?
46223by the painting of her sunsets, by the music of the rolling deep, by the forms of her mountains and her rocks?

46223has not Parry, with his_ object_, been obliged to sail three times to the north pole, and at last return without attaining it?
46223here a new fearful doubt besets me: Will all the inhabitants of the earth ever_ be called_ Christians?
46223is reserved for great and weighty things?
46223is that on the sea?
46223or a superstitious peasant who took my unhappy person for a ghost?
46223or did ever a witch burnt for sorcery produce its equal?
46223or do you bring me tidings from my far distant home?
46223or of that which burnt Huss?
46223or of that which crucified Jesus?
46223or,"How much brains does a dolt''s head contain?"
46223others, what right have we to meddle in other people''s affairs?
46223que cherchez- vous ici?"
46223said I;"what makes you think I must be a Jew?"
46223why do you ask food of me, when the great storehouse is before you?"
46223would not, perhaps, the stagnant and motionless air have been yet more destructive to them?
8463But, what is the act which has awakened all those filthy curs, and put them in motion? 8463 I suppose it is illuminated for the return of Napoleon?"
8463Now, when your laughing fit is over, let me ask you, whether you ever heard of a_ Plot_ and_ Insurrection_ like this before? 8463 Was it any_ fault_ in an Englishman, living in the country, to come to London to take part at a_ Meeting of Englishmen in distress_?
8463What is that?
8463What must the people_ in the country_ think of all this? 8463 What,"said I, raising my voice still higher,"back one of your notes for a thousand pounds?
8463What,said he, in a loud voice,"what, refuse to sign your name?"
8463Where, then, is the ground of all this infamous abuse? 8463 ''The Profit of the Earth is for all;''Yet how deplorably destitute are the great Mass of the People? 8463 --Instead of calling a meeting like this, why not call a public county meeting, and meet the question manfully and openly? 8463 ?--Only seven years. 8463 After some time I obtained a hearing, and I began by inquiring who and what Mr. Hobhouse was? 8463 And in what a state are the people who are so much within their power?
8463And this is the age of our_ glory_, is it?
8463And, if this be_ not true,_ why does not some one of the numerous tax- eating tribe attempt to prove it to be false?
8463And, is he never to open his lips at any time, or at any place?
8463And, was he never to answer in any way?
8463And, what then?
8463Are they not content with this superiority?
8463As, however, I passed up the street, Mr. Tynte, the present Member for that town, accosted me, saying,"Well, Mr. Hunt, what are_ you_ come here?
8463At length I said aloud to the Sheriff,"Sir, as your constables have refused to obey your orders, will you authorise_ me_ to bring Watson before you?"
8463Baronet and the worthy Squire were two of the VISITING MAGISTRATES?
8463Before, however, I could put the question to Mr. Castles, he inquired where I was going?
8463But I take leave to ask, what is become of Mr. More?
8463But, I have heard it asked:"would you, then, in_ no case_, have soldiers called in during an election?
8463But, how often have we heard of_ resistance_ being recommended?
8463But, what say the Correspondents of the Board of Agriculture?
8463But, where was the_ harm?_ Where was the justification for all this vile, this atrocious abuse?
8463But, where was the_ harm?_ Where was the justification for all this vile, this atrocious abuse?
8463But, whose fault was this?
8463But, why should a city be_ burnt down_, unless protected by_ soldiers_?
8463Can any one doubt that the Ministers ordered their tools to send me here, that their underlings might exert their petty tyranny, in order to annoy me?
8463Can you be made to believe that they are sincere when they tell you that they wish for a reform of any sort?
8463Could he write and publish this from_ rebellious,_ from_ treasonable_ motives?
8463Could not the settled reputation of being the most consummate of_ knaves_ content them?
8463Do not freemasons and others parade about with flags?
8463Gentlemen, can you want any further proof of the political hypocrisy of such men as Mr. Charles Elton, and Mr. Mills, and Mr. Castle?
8463Have not they their full share of the press at their command?
8463He asked what was the matter?
8463How came these newspaper writers to_ know_ the contents of your letter?
8463How do you know that_ he_ is not going to propose himself?"
8463How was the peace_ kept then_?
8463How were riots suppressed in those times?
8463Hunt?"
8463I ask them, then, Was it_ unavoidable_ to keep up an army at the expense, including the Ordnance, of 26,736,067 pounds?
8463I asked if it was not a good note?
8463I asked them if they did not expect the attendance of any other of the public characters to whom they had written?
8463I called at Cobbett''s lodgings, in Catherine- street, and asked the young ones, rather sarcastically, if they meant to attend the meeting?
8463I then inquired what was the nature of the memorial or address which they meant to submit to the Prince Regent?
8463I therefore demanded if the surveyor was present to answer for himself?
8463If I were to say this to him, would he not be fully justified in asking me, why_ I did not myself_ act upon the principle of my own advice?
8463If Sir Samuel Romilly were for reform, why should he be so loath to make the declaration?
8463If the man elected can take the public money, is not the temptation too great for most men?
8463Is a man bound to endure this in_ silence_?
8463Is it to be imagined, that they did not foresee, and, indeed, that they had not frequently seen, that elections produced fierce and bloody battles?
8463Is not this a pretty stretch of calumny?
8463Is this nothing?
8463Is this_ manly_, is this_ fairness_, is this_ discussion_, is this_ liberty of the press_?
8463It has often been asked, what can_ one man_ do in the House?
8463It may be asked, why then is he not rich, like other men in his profession?
8463Mr. Buxton must have long_ known_ the facts which he so eloquently and so affectingly described; and why did he not then describe them_ sooner_?
8463Mr. Sheriff, turning to Sir Samuel, said,"there you hear, Sir, what the constables say, what can I do more than I have done?"
8463Nay, do you think that they would hesitate one single half moment to be guilty, for such a purpose, of the blackest perjury themselves?
8463No, no; but"the_ rabble_, the_ mob_;"and_ what_ were they?
8463Now, I will candidly appeal to my readers, and ask if ever they heard of a challenge to fight a duel having been delivered in such a way before?
8463On my stepping forward to address that Livery, the Lord Mayor, Scholey, jumped up out of his chair, and exclaimed,"is he a liveryman?"
8463Or were they men and women?
8463SHERIFF--"I hope you feel deep contrition for the deed?"
8463The commencement of their attack was,"Hunt, where''s your wife?"
8463The gentleman inquired in what notes I should like to have the change?
8463The passengers in the first coach also inquired of the coachman whose house it was, and what was the cause of this splendid display?
8463Those who are of the same opinion with my prudent friend will ask, why did you do so?
8463Upon what_ ground_, then, is this outrageous abuse founded?
8463Was ever the like of this performed before in England, or any other country?
8463Was he to endure the calumnies, the unprovoked calumnies, of that paper_ for years_, and never reply a word?
8463Was it necessary, in order to satisfy their ambition, to stand unrivalled through the world for folly as well as for knavery?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ for as to pay in the same year, on account of the_ deficiencies_ of the Civil List 584,713 pounds?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ that the Civil List for Scotland should amount to 126,613 pounds?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ that the expense of the Civil List should, in last year, amount to 1,928,000 pounds?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ that the other additional allowances to the Royal Family, in that year, should amount to 366,660 pounds?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ to expend in that year( including) an arrear of the former year, in SECRET SERVICE Money, the sum of 153,446 pounds?
8463Was it_ unavoidable_ to pay_ last year_, out of the taxes for the relief of the_ Poor_ Clergy of the Church of England, the sum of 100,000 pounds?
8463Was there ever violence_ like this_ heard of in this world before?
8463Was this any_ fault_?
8463Was this hundred guineas the price of that slaughter?
8463Were they a species of monsters, unknown to our ancient laws and to the Act of George the Second?
8463What check is there?
8463What did they say of his not having the letter ready to produce?
8463What has he done for the people, or for the cause of Liberty, since he has been elected?
8463What have you had from them but talk?
8463What he says is certainly true; and is he not to say it, because the saying it may be disagreeable to those who live upon the taxes thus collected?
8463What stand have they made?
8463What think you of this, John Gull?
8463What, then, is a calumniated man to do?
8463What_ can_ the people at large make out of such a strange medley?
8463Whatever company you went into, the first question was,"Well, what do you think of the Emperor Alexander?
8463Whence have_ they_ derived this privilege of assaulting him with impunity?
8463Why break silence after so long a period?
8463Why do you not stay and answer the questions?"
8463Why name me at all?
8463Why not laugh at me and my trash?
8463Why should I despair of this, after what I have seen?
8463Why suppose any such case?
8463Why was this meeting not to have a flag, if it chose it?
8463Why, that it was a proof of his being a_ liar, and a scoundrel._ Of what_ was_ it a proof?
8463Why, then, are they in a passion?
8463Why, then, have we not peace?
8463Will any man say that the Regent would have done this, had it not been for the great public meetings held in Spafields and other places?
8463Would it tend to enable the Landlords and Farmers to pay the interest of the Debt?
8463Would it tend to lessen the mass of misery that is now in existence?
8463Would it tend to make the world believe that the Government is good, and is beloved by the people?
8463Would they say this?
8463Would you fling his prescriptions into the kennel?
8463Would you rather see a city_ burnt down_?"
8463_ Quere_, has it been lowered again, now that the price of provisions is fallen?
8463_ Who_ was it that_ authorized them_ to publish this account of your letter?
8463_ who_ were to burn the city?
8463a year,) what will be the fate of those who are left behind, without the means of flying from the evil?]
8463and do the advocates of corruption suppose, that our law- makers had not this in their view?
8463and was this nothing?
8463do you support the ballot too?"
8463have you not seen Blucher with his whiskers?
8463have you not seen the King?
8463is this_ rebellious_ on the part of Mr. Preston?
8463not seen the Emperor, and not seen Marshal Blucher''s whiskers?"
8463said he,"would you besiege the man in his own house?"
8463surely you have seen the Don Cossack?
8463tell me whose house this is?"
8463what do you think of Blucher?
8463what is_ not_ inflammatory now- a- days?
34238And,said I,"do you think that all those who made that heap there are gone to the devil?"
34238Aye,said I,"but how am I, who was never here before, to know_ what is_ right, my boy?"
34238Do people_ go_ it?
34238Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail: saying, When will the new moon be gone that we may sell corn? 34238 I do n''t recollect, indeed; but what are you all pursuing him for?"
34238The_ dog_,said I, in a very mild tone,"why, Ewing, there is the spot; and could we not see it, upon this smooth green surface, if it were there?"
34238This place sends Members to Parliament, do n''t it?
34238Well, then,said I,"is it not better for them to pay you for working_ on their land_?"
34238Well,said I,"but_ how comes Beresford to live here now_, if the living be given to another man?"
34238What do you deal in?
34238What has he been stealing?
34238What is_ carrying_?
34238What_ times_,said I;"was there ever a finer summer, a finer harvest, and is there not an_ old_ wheat- rick in every farm- yard?"
34238Where then,said I,"is Thursley?"
34238Where?
34238Who are Members_ now_?
34238Whose beautiful place is that?
34238Why?
34238_ Peasants!_ you dirty- necked devil, and where got you that word? 34238 _ Right on_,"said I,"what over_ that bank_ into the wheat?"
34238_ They?_said I,"who is_ they_?"
34238_ They?_said I,"who is_ they_?"
34238--"Nor at Andover?"
34238--"Nor at Marlborough?"
34238--Suck_ what_ in, Mr. Hitchins?
34238--The other day a gentleman( and a man of general good sense too) said to me:"What a deal of wet we have: what do you think of the weather_ now_?"
34238--This is very true; and what can be better?
34238A correspondent asks me what is meant by the statements which he sees in the_ Register_, relative to the_ hop- duty_?
34238A young man in the room( I having come to a pause) said:"But, Sir, were there no poor in Catholic times?"
34238A_ right_?
34238After all, what is the reflection now called for?
34238After we came out of the cathedral, Richard said,"Why, Papa, nobody can build such places_ now_, can they?"
34238And Sunday- tolls?
34238And again I say,_ who_ is all this venison and game_ for_?
34238And are not these_ improvements_, and are they not a proof of an addition to the national capital?"
34238And are we to get rid of our people in the South, and supply the places of them by horses and machines?
34238And as to the_ time_ thus spent, hunting is inseparable from_ early rising_: and with habits of early rising, who ever wanted time for any business?
34238And besides, where did the hands come from?
34238And can it be of any use to expend money in this sort of way upon poor creatures that have not half a bellyful of food?
34238And could they be made at all without a great abundance of hands?
34238And does any one affect to say that this is wrong?
34238And does it yield_ anything to the public_, to whom it belongs?
34238And does this House, then,"work well?"
34238And how do the conjurers at Whitehall know this?
34238And how is my Lord Howick, born and bred up in Northumberland, to know how to judge of a population suitable to Suffolk?
34238And if there really be an enemy anywhere there about, would it not be a wise way to leave the worthless country to him, to use it after his own way?
34238And is it wrong that one man should possess so much?
34238And is there never to be an_ end_ of these things?
34238And is this"prosperity?"
34238And shall he never see an end to this state of things?
34238And that is the life, is it, of an_ English farmer_?
34238And the House did not listen to him, surely?
34238And then, again, why this farm?
34238And these rows of new houses, added to the Wen, are proofs of growing prosperity, are they?
34238And this is"_ prosperity_,"is it?
34238And tread- mills, then?
34238And upon what ground is this?
34238And what could any body ask for more?
34238And what did he have all this money_ for_?
34238And what have they done?
34238And what have you got then?
34238And what is meaned by"fear of the Lord,"but the fear of doing wrong, or of persevering in doing wrong?
34238And what is the bargain, I want to know,_ with yearly servants_?
34238And what says recent experience?
34238And when they can, even in the Parliament, be received with cheering?
34238And whence is this fear to arise?
34238And where did the money come from?
34238And where, indeed, is the foundation of the Law, to take from any man, be he who he may, the right of catching and using these animals?
34238And who can possibly object to this, except those, who, amongst them, now divide the possession or benefit of this property?
34238And why a barrack?
34238And why does this curse continue?
34238And why is two shillings a bushel kept on?
34238And why should reason not be listened to?
34238And why?
34238And will the Government pretend that"Providence"did it?
34238And will the_ Edinburgh Reviewers_ again find fault with me for cutting at this bawling, canting crew?
34238And, can this operation, then, add to the"national wealth"?
34238And, have you not, since about April, 1819, had absolute prohibition?
34238And, in short, do they ever taste, or even hear of, any game, or any venison, from the New Forest?
34238And, what are the_ hares_ kept_ for_ here?
34238And, yet, are we to be banished for life, if we endeavour to show, that this House does not"work well?"
34238And_ when_ did he give it up?
34238And_ why_?
34238Are not these trees worth a pound apiece?
34238Are these things nothing?
34238Are these things_ always_ to be carried on in this way?
34238Are they for the Royal Family?
34238As to the mercantile and manufacturing people, what is the land to expect from them?
34238As to the_ nature_ of this"adjustment,"is it not most distinctly described in the Norfolk Petition?
34238At Farnham the park and palace remain in the hands of a Bishop of Winchester, as they have done for about eight hundred years: but why is this?
34238Aye, and to find house- rent, clothing, bedding and fuel out of it?
34238But can this_ benefit_ the farmer and landlord?
34238But does the reader remember James''s project for"making Ireland as happy as England"?
34238But had the Government done its part; had it saved us from disgrace?
34238But how is this Wen to be_ dispersed_?
34238But how much better to give the men higher wages, and let them do more work?
34238But how was I to harangue?
34238But if reason were consulted, she would ask what pretensions these have to a preference?
34238But is it_ nothing_ to keep a team of four horses, for five months in the year, on the produce of two acres of land?
34238But is the_ sort_ the same?
34238But the labourer, was I to have no feeling for him?
34238But what are the_ women_ to do?
34238But what did he mean by my_ politics_?
34238But what do people mean?
34238But what has the formation of the New Forest to do with this?
34238But what is_ your Church_?
34238But where is now the goodly audit ale?
34238But, Gentlemen, is it right for the nation to keep on paying for life crowds of young fellows such as make up the greater part of this_ dead weight_?
34238But, at any rate, what has all this to do with the necessity of emigration?
34238But, besides that Mr. Drummond is very worthy of his estate, what chance should I have of getting it if it came to a_ scramble_?
34238But, indeed, what estates might he not purchase?
34238But_ who_ built them?
34238But_ why_ should men, why should_ any_ men, work_ hard_?
34238Can any man tell why we should still be paying five, or six, or seven shillings a bushel for salt, instead of one?
34238Can any system of husbandry equal this?
34238Can beggarly stuff, like larches and firs, ever be profitable to this extent?
34238Can not each acre yield ten trees a year?
34238Can such a thing_ go on_?
34238Can that half acre cost more than a tenth part as much as the thirty acres?
34238Can they show a group so wretched, so miserable, so truly enslaved as this, in all Spain?
34238Colonel Wodehouse and a man of the name of Hoseason( whence came he?)
34238Could he be_ heaven- born_ that invented such a system?
34238Could he have_ worked_, and worked in the wet, too, with such food?
34238Could not he, or somebody else, give us a portrait of the_ military_ and of the_ naval parson_?
34238Did Jesus Christ and Saint Paul talk about fine houses?
34238Did he, when he was ordained, talk anything about a fine house to live in?
34238Did you want me to stop till the_ twentieth_ century?
34238Do they come out of_ trade_ and_ commerce_?
34238Do you know this from_ experience_?
34238Do you mean to call upon our big gentlemen at Whitehall for them to compel the French to pay tithes?
34238Do you pretend that the nation is_ richer_, because the means of making this barrack have been drawn away from the people in taxes?
34238Does Monsieur de Snip call those improvements, then?
34238Does he insist, that those houses form"an addition to the national capital?"
34238Does it prove that we want no change?
34238Does not this one fact sufficiently characterize the system under which we live?
34238Does not this prove that a change, a great change, is wanted?
34238Does the law say so?
34238Does the reader know what is the price of this load of timber?
34238Does the reader observe that there were three hundred and fifteen thousand, four hundred and seventy- seven_ loads_?
34238Does there want any_ other cause_ to produce crimes?
34238Does this thing"work well,"Mr. Canning?
34238For as to an_ enemy_, where was he to come from?
34238For what were all these country patriots born?
34238For what, I wonder?
34238From such vehicles what are farmers to learn?
34238Good sporting country, except for coursing, and too many flints for that.--What becomes of all the_ water_?
34238Has hell a torment surpassing the wickedness of thy inventor?
34238Has the blessed Jesus_ told you so_?"
34238Has this plan cost so little as two millions of pounds?
34238Have I said that there was any invitation at all?
34238Have they any exports?
34238Have thirty- eight years corrected my taste, or made me a hypercritic in these matters?
34238Have we ever received any evidence, or anything whereon to build a belief, that the interest on these bonds will be paid?
34238He was to be damned unless born again, and how was he to be born again unless he came to the regeneration- shop and gave the fellows money?
34238How are they to pay rent?
34238How are you to expect that they will seek to acquire fortune and fame by study or by application of any kind?
34238How came this that was at Reigate, for instance?
34238How came this writer to know that it was a_ mistaken notion_?
34238How can Peel''s Bill work in a more delightful manner?
34238How can there be ground lost if the crop be larger?
34238How could such hills have bubbled up from beneath?
34238How could waters rolling about have formed such hills?
34238How do we know how skilful, how learned_ they_ were?
34238How is it to be otherwise?
34238How long will fire- engines, steel traps, and spring guns be, in such a state of things, a protection to property?
34238How long will these people starve in the midst of plenty?
34238How should either of them know anything about the eastern, southern, or western counties?
34238How should he?
34238How should he?
34238How should we get on without pensions, sinecures, tithes, and the other"glorious institutions"of this"mighty_ empire_"?
34238How, then,_ came_ this big upon little?
34238How_ dare_ the honourable gentlemen to suppose me capable of such a thought?
34238However, what cares he?
34238I asked a man how I should get to Thursley?
34238I asked two men, who were threshing in a barn, how long it was since their public- house was put down, or dropped?
34238I asked where this Shepperd was NOW?
34238I know that such a man does not lose his estate at once; but, without rents, what is the estate?
34238I pulled up my horse, and said,"Can you tell me my fortune, my dear?"
34238I suppose you will not deny the facts?
34238I will, I think, call upon him( if I can find him out) when I get back, and ask how he does now?
34238I wonder whether Alfred had a thought of anything like this when he was clearing England from her oppressors?
34238If married, how are their miserable families to live on 4_s._ 6_d._ a week?
34238If such be the profit of planting ash, what would be the profit of planting locust, even for poles or stakes?
34238If the law give him ample compensation for every damage that he sustains, in consequence of a trespass on his lands, what right has he to complain?
34238In parting with him, I said,"You do get some_ bacon_ then?"
34238In short, is the honourable and learned Gentleman for putting an end to"_ public credit_"?
34238In such a state of things how are you to expect young men to enter on a course of patient industry?
34238Is a nation made_ rich_ by taking the food and clothing from those who create them, and giving them to those who do nothing of any use?
34238Is it any wonder that a country should be miserable when such notions prevail?
34238Is it any wonder that_ paupers increase_?
34238Is it possible to conceive a viler calling than that of an agent for the carrying on of gambling?
34238Is it that I now look at them with the solemnness of a"professional man,"and not with the enthusiasm and eagerness of an"amateur?"
34238Is it, in short, surprising, if he resort to_ theft_ and_ robbery_?
34238Is not that enough to convince any one of the hellishness of this system?
34238Is not that memorable petition now in the Journals of the House of Commons?
34238Is not the estate worth three or four hundred thousand pounds a year?
34238Is not this a monstrous shame?
34238Is there a man in Parliament that will call for it?
34238Is there a man who will say that this is right?
34238Is there nobody to inquire what becomes of the income of the Crown lands?
34238Is this Mr. Canning''s"_ Sun of Prosperity_?"
34238Is this a cause of"national wealth"?
34238Is this a sign of wise legislation and of good government?
34238Is this the country that laughed at the French for their submissions?
34238Is this the land of"manly hearts?"
34238Is this the way to increase or preserve a nation''s wealth?
34238Is this the"prosperity of the war?"
34238Is this"a church"?
34238Is this"law"?
34238Is this, then, is this"church"a thing to remain untouched?
34238Is this_ worth nothing_?
34238It balances itself naturally enough; but what tossed it up?
34238Let me see: where was I?
34238Like_ protecting_ the Spanish Bonds, I suppose?
34238Money was the measure of value; but if this measure was liable to be three times as large at one time as at another, who could know what to do?
34238Mr. Canning will say,"will you not allow that the owners of these new enclosures and these houses know their own interests?
34238Never since the time of Charles had such disgrace been brought upon the country; and why was this?
34238No?
34238Now, do I wish to insinuate that Mr. B---- asked too much for his farms last year, and that he wished to squeeze the last shilling out of his farmers?
34238Now, if this be the case, ought not Parson Malthus, Lawyer Scarlett, and the rest of that tribe, to turn their attention to the nut- trees?
34238Now, is there a man in his senses who believes that this THING can go on in the present way?
34238Now, then, what did Mr. Canning say?
34238Now, upon the face of the transaction, what_ harm_ could this do the community?
34238Now, what can the South American State show in this way?
34238Now, what ill- natured devil could bring Old Nic Grimshaw into my head in company with these innocent sheep?
34238Now_ why is all this_?
34238Oh, no?
34238On sert Dieu bien à   son aise ici?_"That is:"Egad!
34238Or, at least, have they any that any man can speak of with certainty?
34238Persuade them, I suppose, that it is for_ their good_ that English goods should be admitted into France and into St. Domingo with little or no duty?
34238Putting this question to him, would it not check his exultation, and would it not make even Wilmot begin to reflect?
34238Respecting the movements of_ whom_ is wanted this_ alarm- system_?
34238Shall he never have the due reward of his labour?
34238Shall not the land tremble for this; and every one mourn that dwelleth therein?
34238The South West winds have cut them off; and, indeed, how should it be otherwise, if these winds happen to prevail in May, or early in June?
34238The bank lends money I suppose when it chooses; and is not it to be the judge when it shall lend and when it shall not?
34238The distress of agriculture was considerable in magnitude then; but what is it now?
34238The doubling rental?
34238The farm which never yet was left on hand?
34238The impatient hope of the expiring lease?
34238The marsh reclaim''d to most improving land?
34238The miscreants who bribe them?
34238The monster called, by the silly coxcombs of the press,"the metropolis of the empire"?
34238The poor forger is hanged; but where is the prosecutor of the monopolizing farmer, though the_ law_ is as clear in the one case as in the other?
34238The purse- proud tenant, never known to fail?
34238The question, therefore, is, did these men attack, or were they the attacked?
34238The soldier, the commissary, the barrack- master, all the whole tribe, no matter under what_ name_; what keeps them?
34238The village of Kingston was smothered in the town of Portsea; and why?
34238Then would it not be better for the honourable and learned Gentleman to_ hold his tongue_?
34238There was no harm in them that I know of, beyond that of living upon the public; but where were their merits?
34238These make part of the increased capital of the country, do they?
34238They have backs as straight and shoulders as square as heroes of Waterloo; and who can blame them?
34238This gentleman is now a great advocate for_ national faith_; but may not Mr. B---- ask him whether there be no faith to be kept with the landlord?
34238This grass will fat any ox, or sheep; and would not Mr. Palmer like to have ten acres of land that would fat a score of oxen?
34238This is a matter of great public importance; and yet, how, in the present state of things, is an_ investigation_ to be obtained?
34238This was the only reason in the world for their wanting corn to sell at a high price?
34238To be sure, I labour most assiduously to destroy a system of distress and misery; but is that any reason why a_ Lord_ should dislike my politics?
34238True, that these deserve the halter( and some of them may have it yet); but are not the takers of the bribes_ equally_ guilty?
34238Upon George asking me, whether I would not stop to breakfast?
34238Was it created by the union with Scotland; or was it begotten by Pitt and his crew?
34238Was it flattery?
34238Was it honey that dropped from my lips?
34238Was it hypocrisy; was it ostentation?
34238Was not he my_ countryman_ too?
34238Was not this_ always_ so?
34238Was such a thing as this ever before heard of in the world?
34238Was this done with regard to the loyalists of_ America_ in the reign of the good jubilee George III.?
34238Was this_ instinct_ in either dog or hares?
34238We hear loud outcries against the poor- rates; the_ enormous_ poor- rates; the_ all- devouring_ poor- rates; but what are the facts?
34238We may talk of sparkling eyes and snowy bosoms as long as we please; but what are these with a croaking, masculine voice?
34238Well,_ loyal gentlemen_, why do not you petition, then, to be relieved from tithes?
34238Well: and what then, Jerry?
34238Were such things as these ever before heard of in the world?
34238What are all his riches to me?
34238What are the farmers to do with them?
34238What are the shop and the shop- keeper for?
34238What are these deer_ for_?
34238What better reason can be given for a man''s going about the country and dining at fairs and markets?
34238What but fear of exposure prevents thousands upon thousands of offences, moral as well as legal?
34238What but fear of the law restrains many men from committing crimes?
34238What can be plainer than this?
34238What can be the cause of this perverseness?
34238What can be the_ end_ of it, but dreadful convulsion?
34238What can this be_ for_?
34238What comparison is there to be made between states of society so essentially different?
34238What could a revolution do for him_ more_ than this?
34238What could you find there to be snatched from everlasting oblivion, except for the purpose of being execrated?"
34238What do they arise from, then?
34238What do you mean else?
34238What do"my lords"care about this?
34238What do_ we_ want with armies and barracks and chaplains in those woods?
34238What do_ we_ want with these wildernesses?
34238What does anybody want with them; but_ we_, above all the rest of the world?
34238What education, what moral precepts, can quiet the gnawings and ragings of hunger?
34238What is it_ for_?
34238What is the_ end_?
34238What is to be the_ end_ of this?
34238What is to be_ gained_ by putting this man in the place of any of those who are in power now?
34238What is to become of that multitude of towns that has been stuck up around it?
34238What is to prevent this, if the interest of Exchequer Bills be raised, as the broad sheet tells us it is to be?
34238What lifted up the big?
34238What more is wanted than to act on the prayer of that very petition?
34238What nation could ever carry on its affairs, if it had to take into consideration the price of corn?
34238What other can be produced by a system, which allows the_ felon_ better food, better clothing, and better lodging than the_ honest labourer_?
34238What redress, then, have the people of the county?
34238What rule is there, with regard to population and poor- laws, which can apply to both cases?
34238What should_ he_ want high prices for?
34238What sort of_ breakfast_ would this man have had in a mess of_ cold potatoes_?
34238What the devil should they come to this hill for, then?
34238What the devil, some one would say, could have become of all this timber?
34238What then?
34238What then_ do_ the labourers get?
34238What was this, then?
34238What were these four churches_ built for_ within the distance of three miles?
34238What will Londonderry bet that, he is not the_ tenant of the public_ before this day five years?
34238What will the consequences be?
34238What would be said of the''Squire who should take a fox- hound out to find partridges for him to shoot at?
34238What would be their state, and that of their landlords, if the wheat were to come down again to 4, 5, or even 6 shillings a bushels?
34238What would he do with these cows, if he had not this crop?
34238What, I ask, for about the thousandth time I ask it; what were these twenty churches built for?
34238What, Mr. Tripp, is it a fine house that you have been appointed and ordained to live in?
34238What, in the way of Corn Bill, can you have, Gentlemen, beyond absolute prohibition?
34238What, short of such laws, can prevent_ starving men_ from coming to take away the dinners of those who have plenty?
34238What, then!--Ought not this church to be repealed?
34238What, then, is this debt of the United States?
34238What, then, is this"an improvement?"
34238What, then, is to be done with this_ over- produce_?
34238What, then, must be the life of these poor creatures?
34238What, then, should all these churches have been built_ for_?
34238What, with regard to the poor, is the great complaint now?
34238What_ right_ have these Commissioners to keep hares here, to eat up the trees?
34238When his servant said,"Here is Mr. Cobbett, Sir;"he said,"How do you do, Sir?
34238When were we again to see the labourer receiving his wages from the farmer instead of being sent on the road to break stones?
34238Where are his friends, the Edinburgh Reviewers?
34238Where are they_ now_?
34238Where did the hands come from to make it?
34238Where did the_ means_, where did the hands come from?
34238Where is Malthus?
34238Where is this check- population parson?
34238Where is this to_ end_?
34238Where, then, is their natural tendency to increase beyond the means of sustenance for them?
34238Who are to_ eat_ them?
34238Who can imagine that the persons employed about plantations and farms for the public, are employed because_ they are fit_ for the employment?
34238Who denies that?
34238Who does not know that?
34238Who does not see to what this tends?
34238Who is to have it?
34238Who the Devil thought he had?
34238Who thinks anything more of the name of_ Erskine_ than of that of_ Scott_?
34238Whose fault is it, then?
34238Why are not these premises let or sold?
34238Why are these expensive things put up all over the country?
34238Why do n''t they go to_ the parish_?"
34238Why do not farmers now_ feed_ and_ lodge_ their work- people, as they did formerly?
34238Why do you want not to forget that sink of corruption?
34238Why has this infamous press, which always pursues that which it thinks its own interest; why has it taken this strange turn?
34238Why is it egotism?
34238Why not do it from that motive?
34238Why not have the people in the fertile counties of the South, where their very existence causes their food and their raiment to come?
34238Why not plant six acres of the ground with timber and underwood?
34238Why not?
34238Why should she not be consulted in every such case?
34238Why should they not have some holidays?
34238Why should you suffer them to remain in a state of ignorance relative to the cause of their misery?
34238Why was it necessary to apprise him of it any more than the porter of the inn?
34238Why, Doctor?
34238Why, Gentlemen, what do we want more than this one fact?
34238Why, I ask, should they work incessantly, if working part of the days of the week be sufficient?
34238Why, he said that the reformers were a low degraded crew, and he called upon the House to make a stand against democratical encroachment?
34238Why, was it not an ordinary; and had I not as much right there as he?
34238Why?
34238Will no member ask this in Parliament?
34238Will the Chronicle be so good as to tell us the names of these"_ respectable_ persons"?
34238Will the landlords stand this?
34238Will this little, lively, but, at the same time, simple boy, ever become the terror of villains and hypocrites across the Atlantic?
34238Would a dissolution of Parliament mend the matter?
34238Would it not be more natural to propose to get this money back from the Church, than to squeeze so much out of the bones of the labourers?
34238Yet what do labourers''families get, compared to this?
34238Yet will he, when he again meets the Ministers, say a word about this monstrous evil?
34238Yet, what is Tring but a fair specimen of English towns and English people?
34238You know, said I, farmer, that when a girl has a sweet- heart, people call him her_ beau_?
34238_ Can_ it be good farming to plough and sow and hoe thirty acres to get what_ may_ be got upon half an acre?
34238_ What causes_ frogs to come in drops of rain, or those drops of rain to turn to frogs, the moment they are on the earth?
34238_ What causes_ horse- hair to become living things?
34238_ When_ will this be done?
34238_ Whence come_ the means of building these new houses and keeping the inhabitants?
34238_ Whence_ come fish in new made places where no fish have ever been put?
34238_ Whence_ come( in similar cases as to self- woods) the hurtleberries in some places, and the raspberries in others?
34238_ Who_ eats them?
34238and does he observe that a load is_ fifty- two cubic feet_?
34238are police- officers kept for this?
34238he might fairly reply,''What is that to you?''
34238how can it be necessary, then, to have a law to transport them for coming upon your land?
34238how was any one to know how to purchase wheat, if the bushel was to be altered at the pleasure of the Government to three times its present size?
34238is a country like this to be ruined by the folly of those who govern it?''
34238is it smoke, or is it a cloud?"
34238is there no spirit left in England except in the miserable sand- hills of Surrey?"
34238is this state of things to last?
34238said I,"you do n''t think you_ killed_, do you?
34238said he,"where are_ now_ those savages who, at Hull, threatened to kill me for raising my voice against this system?"
34238the reader will say,"should you want to recollect_ that_ place for?
34238they come from_ the land_; but if Daddy Coke like this, what has any one else to do with it?
34238was it not better for the consumers of the food to live near to the places where it was grown?
34238were there bayonets wanted already to keep the people in order?
34238what fools could not get the same, or the like, if they had as much_ money_ to get it with?
34238what in all the world should he think would take me to Thetford,_ except it being a time for holding the assizes_?
34238when shall we be allowed to enjoy God''s gifts, in freedom, as the people of France enjoy them?
34238will any man believe that these churches were built for such little knots of people?
34238would you never have people act from_ fear_?
7080''No, not the slightest,''he might answer,''but how is that to be done?''
7080''What Duke?''
7080''What sale?''
7080''Why,''he said,''do n''t you know that is the place where the great sale took place?''
7080( A Voice:''How about sugar?'')
7080After the experience of such State Churches, which have done so little good and so much evil, is this a time for establishing another Church?
7080Again, what do you say to the Mississippi River, as you see it upon the map, the''father of waters,''rolling its gigantic stream to the ocean?
7080Again, what war could be more popular than the French war?
7080Am I talking to sane men, that it is necessary to bring forward facts like these?
7080Am I, then, talking of trifles?
7080And if I have accurately described the state of Turkey, what is the position of Russia?
7080And if it be true, what conclusion are we to come to?
7080And if this Church has failed as a religious institution, how stands it as a political institution?
7080And if we part from the speakers and turn to the writers, what do we find there?
7080And once more I ask the noble Lord to tell us who did it?
7080And that means, further, How can we improve the condition and change the minds of the people of Ireland?
7080And what did the Ministers say then, and what did their organ, the_ Times_, say?
7080And what is it that is meant by these proprietary rights?
7080And what is that cost?
7080And what is the state of things now?
7080And what would you do with the City of Washington?
7080And when terrible calamities were coming upon your army, where was this Government?
7080And yet what has happened?
7080Another question suggests itself-- how has this great triumph been accomplished?
7080Are not William Lloyd Garrison and his fellow- labourers in that world''s work-- are they not''On Fame''s eternal bead- roll worthy to be filed?''
7080Are these things to be accounted nothing?
7080Are they willing in overthrowing that Government to avow the policy of this Proclamation for India?
7080Are they willing, above all, to take the responsibility which will attach to them if they avow the policy contained in this Proclamation?
7080Are you to say, as some people say in America and in Jamaica when speaking of the black man, that''Nothing can be made of the Irishman''?
7080Ask Victor Hugo, the poet of freedom,--the exponent, may I not call him, of the yearnings of all mankind for a better time?
7080Baronet buy land in Ireland?
7080Baronet the Secretary for War, say in reference to the proposition?
7080But I have been asked twenty, fifty times during the last twelve months,''Why do you not come out and say something?
7080But as to what is, or has been popular, I may ask, what was more popular than the American war?
7080But does the fact of this dinner point to reconciliation, and to a firm and liberal administration?
7080But how is it now?
7080But how is this Government, so occupied and so embarrassed, to be expected to put the police on a satisfactory footing?
7080But how long does England propose to govern India?
7080But how much is at stake?
7080But if all had been surrendered without a struggle, what then?
7080But if honest Protestantism has nothing to fear from the changes that I would recommend, what has the honest landowner to fear?
7080But if so, what security have you that one treaty will be more binding than another?
7080But if that is so important as to be worth a sanguinary war, why did you not go to war with France when she seized upon Algiers?
7080But if the North does not like England, does anybody believe the South does?
7080But if the South began the war, and created all the mischief, does it look reasonable that we should pat them on the back, and be their friends?
7080But if the tariff was onerous and grievous, was that any reason for this great insurrection?
7080But it was not settled, and why not?
7080But then we may be asked, What are our sources of supply, putting aside India?
7080But they will very likely say, as many of them tell me,''What could we do in the frenzy of the public mind?''
7080But what becomes of the Proclamation?
7080But what is intended with regard to the question of defence?
7080But what is it now under the protection of the noble Lord and his Colleagues?
7080But what is our position?
7080But what is said by the writers in this infamous Southern press in this country with regard to that meeting?
7080But what is said of Sir C. Trevelyan for instituting these reforms?
7080But what is the condition of that Empire at this moment?
7080But what is the meaning of revising the treaty of 1841?
7080But what was the reason that we did not get enough?
7080But why should there be this jealousy between these two nations?
7080But, are those two noble Lords men in whom the House and country ought to place implicit confidence?
7080But, now, is there a war party in the United States?
7080But, to come nearer, I would ask whether this meeting has any opinion upon it, and whether our sympathies have been stirred in relation to it?
7080Can anything be more destructive of the''integrity and independence''of Turkey than the policy of the noble Lord?
7080Can they obtain better terms?
7080Did he mean contending for empire, as England contends for it when making some fresh conquest in India?
7080Did you never hear of it?
7080Do not we feel in some sort a pricking of conscience, and are we not sensible that conscience tends to make us cowards at this particular juncture?
7080Do you forget the thousand- fold griefs and the countless agonies which belonged to the silent conflict of slavery before the war began?
7080Does anybody doubt it?
7080Does it arise because the priests of Maynooth are now insufficiently clad or fed?
7080For what did the noble Lord the Secretary for the Colonies say when he addressed the baillies and the enthusiastic citizens of Greenock?
7080Friend has asked me,''Is there nobody to tell the House of Commons the truth on this matter?''
7080Gentleman has brought before us-- a question which he has put in such ambiguous terms?
7080Gentleman knows, What was the condition of the Mahometan?
7080Gentleman the Member for Oxford?
7080Gentleman, who had given the House to suppose that a great deal had been done in respect to improvements in India?
7080Gentlemen think it not necessary?
7080Gentlemen what are the taxes of a whole village, and what they mean?
7080Had that people not been docile, the most governable race in the world, how could you have maintained your power for 100 years?
7080Has England any opinion with regard to this American question?
7080Has England any sympathy, on one side or the other, with either party in this great struggle?
7080Have these men gained anything in popularity with the country, or even with the Members of this House, by the course they have taken?
7080Have you ever fully considered the effect which this state of things in Ireland has upon the condition of certain districts in England?
7080Have you read the Reports of your own Commissioners to the New York Exhibition?
7080Having thus described what appears to me briefly the literal truth of this matter, what is the course that England would be expected to pursue?
7080How are the interests of England involved in this question?
7080How came it that this despatch was never published for the information of the people of this country?
7080How has it increased since then?
7080I ask if this grand passage of the inspired writer may not be applied to that heroic band who have made America the perpetual home of freedom?
7080I ask them-- I ask you-- have you any special interest in this contest?
7080I asked him whether he was going out?
7080I asked how it was he had so good a house?
7080I recollect a question asked of a child at school, in one of those lessons called''object lessons,''''What is the basis of a batter pudding?''
7080I said to him,''If all the farmers of Ireland had the same security for the capital they laid out on their farms, what would be the result?''
7080I said,''Sir James, tell me candidly, did you not deserve it?''
7080I say an odious offence has been committed against the House, and against the truth; and what we want to know is, who did it?
7080I should like to ask any lawyer in what light we stand as regards that Proclamation?
7080I should like to ask him whether this Irish question is above the stature of himself and of his Colleagues?
7080I should like to ask whence comes the anxiety, which undoubtedly to some extent prevails?
7080I think him very unwise in not propounding to himself the momentous question,''What shall be done for Ireland?''
7080I want to know why they can do it in Ireland?
7080I will ask the House in this state of things whether they are disposed to place implicit confidence in her Majesty''s Ministers?
7080I will say even, is there a man with a more honest wish to do good to the country in which he occupies so conspicuous a place?
7080I wish to ask why such a Bill is not ready before this?
7080I would like to ask, what can be much worse than this?
7080If Turkey has been in danger from the side of Russia heretofore, will she not be in far greater danger when the war is over?
7080If an American be in this room to- night, will he feel that he likes my honourable Friend?
7080If every man outside the walls of this House who has the interest of the whole Empire at heart were to speak here, what would he say to this House?
7080If so, what is the end to which we must come?
7080If that is true of Parliament, what shall we say of the Throne itself after all these changes?
7080If the House accept the advice of the majority sitting on this side, what will be done?
7080If the laws of entail and primogeniture are sound and just, why not apply them to personal property as well as to freehold?
7080If the supply of cotton wool were limited to the hands of the Browns and the Barings, what would be the condition of the Lancashire manufactories?
7080If they are thus misled and bewildered, is it not the duty of this House to speak with the voice of authority in this hour of peril?
7080If they have destroyed cotton, or withheld it, shall we therefore take them to our bosoms?
7080If we are to spend two hundred thousand pounds at Quebec, is Canada to spend four hundred thousand pounds at Montreal?
7080If you pursue your vengeance until you have rooted out and destroyed every one of those soldiers who have revolted, when will your labour cease?
7080Is everything to be done for the province?
7080Is it intended to garrison its fortresses by English troops?
7080Is it not possible that the Northern Government may be baffled in their military operations?
7080Is it not possible that, by their own incapacity, they may be humiliated before their own people?
7080Is it that the law which rules in Ireland is bad, but the people good; or that the law is good, but the people bad?
7080Is not this a fit question for statesmanship?
7080Is not your legislation all at fault in what it has hitherto done for that country?
7080Is she not an incessant trouble to your Legislature, and the source of increased expense to your people, already over- taxed?
7080Is she not the very symbol and token of your disgrace and humiliation to the whole world?
7080Is there a better test in the long run of the condition of a people and the merits of a Government than the state of the finances?
7080Is there anybody in this House in favour of such a war?
7080Is there in Europe a more disinterested and generous friend of freedom than Garibaldi?
7080Is there in any legislative assembly in the world a man, as the world judges, of more transcendent capacity?
7080Is there no hope, no possibility, of infusing a little fresh blood from some purer source into these bodies?
7080Is there not a consciousness in our heart of hearts that we have not during the last five years behaved generously to our neighbours?
7080Is this hypocrisy?
7080Is this nothing?
7080Is war the only thing a nation enters upon in which the cost is never to be reckoned?
7080It is said,--that very paper has said over and over again,--''Why this war?
7080It put this question to the King,''How comes it to pass that the King was never the richer for Ireland?''
7080It was an absurd thing altogether; but what was done then?
7080It was said, How would you like to have a Commission come down into Lancashire and insist on buying your factories?
7080Member for Sheffield( Mr. Hadfield)?
7080Member for South Lancashire?
7080Member:''How much is the labour worth?'']
7080Member:''Run away?'']
7080Members are ready, I know, to say,''Whose fault is that?''
7080Members of this House might have read it?
7080Mr. Ashworth has said, and said very truly,''Are they not our own people?''
7080Next, will the States attack Canada-- I am keeping out of view England altogether?
7080Now let us ask, Is the United States for war?
7080Now we come to the question, which of the propositions would be most secure?
7080Now what has the noble Lord at the head of the Government done towards grappling with all these questions?
7080Now what was done in Stockport?
7080Now, I would ask the House this question-- are we prepared to sanction the policy of that despatch?
7080Now, are there no good men in Ireland of those who are generally opposed to us in politics-- are there none who can rise above the level of party?
7080Now, can this be remedied under slavery?
7080Now, has anybody been able to show that, as a religious institution, it has not been a deplorable failure?
7080Now, if it were possible, would it not be worth while to change the sentiments and improve the condition of the Irish cultivators of the soil?
7080Now, suppose these Straits, instead of being one mile wide, had been ten miles wide, what difference would it make to Turkey?
7080Now, what I should like to ask the House is this-- first of all, will Canada attack the States?
7080Now, what has it cost to obtain all this?
7080Now, what is international law?
7080Now, what was the proposition of this third article?
7080Now, why do you offer anything?
7080On which side shall we stand?
7080Sir, if this Proclamation be not a Proclamation of unheard- of severity, how comes it that so many persons have protested against it?
7080Suppose the Government were to say to this farmer,''You would not have any objection to become possessed of this farm?''
7080That the Habeas Corpus Act should not be suspended?
7080The answer suggests itself in another question-- How is it that any great thing is accomplished?
7080The lady started with astonishment-- she had an eye to the vast funds of the State, and she asked,''What can 1,000 crowns be to the King?''
7080The other day I asked a gentleman holding an office in the Government, and who had lived some years in Ceylon, what was the state of the Council?
7080The proposal was, that Russia should have eight ships; but what was the proposition with regard to her present antagonists?
7080The question now is, however, how is that preponderance to cease?
7080The question to them will be, What is the opinion of the Parliament of England as to the policy announced to India in the Proclamation?
7080Then he said,''If we look for a remedy, who can give us an intelligible answer?
7080Then if Canada is not for war, if England is not for war, and if the United States are not for war, whence is the war to come?
7080Then, what would you do with all those States, and with what we may call the loyal portion of the people of those States?
7080There can not be a meaner motive than this I am speaking of, in forming a judgment on this question,--that it is''better for us''--for whom?
7080They say, further, Why should a man in Ireland keep his estate, and not a man in England who has an estate in Ireland?
7080This being the case, in what manner are the Irish people to subsist in future?
7080Was Wilberforce, was Clarkson, was Buxton,--I might run over the whole list,--were these men hypocrites, and had they nothing about them but ca nt?
7080Was that becoming a matter of this grave nature?
7080Was there any construction put upon it, which was different from the recommendation here made and the argument used by the French Government?
7080Well, now, what have we seen during the last week?
7080Well, now, what is the real obstacle in our path?
7080Well, then, if they succeed, what sort of a Government shall we have?
7080Well, why should you be afraid?
7080What can a Governor- General do with such a Council, and with servants who are ever changing in all the departments?
7080What did he say?
7080What did one of the noble Lord''s present colleagues say of the Government of our ally?
7080What did our rulers do then?
7080What do people say of it?
7080What do you propose to do?
7080What do your own officers say?
7080What had these worse than savages to do with the Powers of Europe, but to spread war, destruction, and pestilence among them?
7080What has been the course of events in relation to that case?
7080What has it done amongst the Nonconformists of England?
7080What has it done amongst the population of Wales?
7080What has passed in this House since the opening of the present session?
7080What has the voluntary system done in Scotland?
7080What have we been doing all the Session?
7080What is Ireland worth to you at all?
7080What is it that is offered upon this matter by the Government?
7080What is it that the Member for Oxford says?
7080What is it that the people of India, if they spoke by my mouth, have to complain of?
7080What is it the Government propose to do?
7080What is it we have to complain of in India?
7080What is our ecclesiastical establishment in India?
7080What is that in Ireland worth to you now?
7080What is the condition of Ireland at this moment with which you have to deal?
7080What is the condition of Ireland?
7080What is the first remedy which you would propose?
7080What is the meaning of confiscating the proprietary rights in the soil?
7080What is the obvious remedy which for this state of things has been found to be sufficient in every other country?
7080What is the proportion which Canada is to bear?
7080What more did I see?
7080What of late could be more remarkable than the caprices of the noble Lord the Member for London?
7080What shall we say, then, with regard to it?
7080What was done last night?
7080What was done with this note?
7080What was it that we heard during the Indian mutiny; what was the cause of all the letters that appeared in the newspapers?
7080What was the condition of our greatest manufacturing industry before the war, and before secession had been practically attempted?
7080What was the result?
7080What would be the state of things here if such a regulation were adopted?
7080What would the writers in this newspaper and other newspapers have said?
7080What would you think of eight Birminghams being transplanted from this country and set down in the United States?
7080What, I should like to know, would have been done if India had been conquered by the troops of the Crown?
7080What, then, are we about to do?
7080What, then, do you propose to do?
7080What, then, is the change which is proposed, and which ought to be made?
7080What, then, is the remedy that is now offered?
7080What, then, is your hope?
7080When I gave him an answer which did not agree with his opinion, he said,''I think you have never been in America, have you?''
7080When the time comes for the''inquisition for blood,''who shall answer for these things?
7080Whence, then, could the planters of the South receive their increasing labour?
7080Where is now the popularity of that disastrous and disgraceful war, and who is the man to defend it?
7080Where is the surplus now?
7080Where is this to end?
7080Where was there a bad Government whose finances were in good order?
7080Where was there a really good Government whose finances were in bad order?
7080Who is there that does not recollect his frank, amiable, and manly countenance?
7080Who is to gainsay it?
7080Who objects to this?
7080Who or what is the instrument-- the Cabinet, the Government, or the person-- by whom this evil policy is carried on?
7080Who was there?
7080Why can you not tell us something in this time of our great need?''
7080Why did the noble Lord think it necessary to speak for three hours and twenty minutes on the subject?
7080Why is it not so in Ireland?
7080Why is it that the noble Lord has tonight come forward as the defender of the Greeks?
7080Why is it that we can have nothing like this in the Councils of Madras or Bombay?
7080Why is it that we should not do for Madras what has been done for the Island of Ceylon?
7080Why is it that you require all this army?
7080Why is it we are discussing this question?
7080Why is it, now, that there should be any kind of schism between the Liberal people of Ireland and the Liberal people of Great Britain?
7080Why not separate peaceably?
7080Why should not we act a similar part in India?
7080Why should we fear a great nation on the American continent?
7080Why should we not disregard the small- minded ambition that struggles for place?
7080Why should we not fully measure our responsibility?
7080Why should we tolerate in Ireland the law of primogeniture?
7080Why should we tolerate the system of entails?
7080Why this fratricidal strife?''
7080Why was it that the originals were so consistently withheld?
7080Why, let me ask, should land be tied up any more than any other raw material?
7080Why, then, should that course be followed with regard to land?
7080Will any one say that England, compared with Austria, is now three times as powerful as she was thirty or forty years ago?
7080Will the House accept that proposition?
7080Will the House allow me to say why I am so?
7080Will you make a treaty with Russia, and force conditions upon her?
7080With her finances hopelessly exhausted, will she ever again be able to raise an army of 200,000 men?
7080Would any other Legislative Assembly in the whole world, except this, tolerate such a state of things?
7080Would it not be better at once to ascertain whether the principles and policy on which we have hitherto proceeded have not been faulty?
7080You speak of interference with property; but I ask what becomes of the property of the poor man, which consists of his labour?
7080a- year, would he get 10,000,000_l_.?
7080and how is Turkey to be secured?
7080and may we not add that the freedom which now overspreads his noble nation first sprang into life amongst our own ancestors?
7080and what has it done amongst the Catholic population of your own Ireland?
7080but is it a fact, or is it not?
7080will not be beyond the mark-- has already been expended?
7080would it be under the same circumstances, and at the same price, that he would buy an estate in Yorkshire or Staffordshire?
4773Did you like that Winnington?
4773Iris, d''ye hear? 4773 Is there any more to be had of equal beauty, or at all approaching to it?
4773Is there any thing known of the author or authors, and of what antiquity are they supposed to be? 4773 Lord, Madam,"said I,"do n''t you know it is the fashion?
4773Lord, child,cried my Lady Temple,"what is the matter?"
4773Sir,said I,"did you see that strange agitation of the waters?"
4773Sire, j''ai appris` a Penser--"Des chevaux?"
4773Well, Mr. Bartlemy,said his lordship, snuffling,"what have you to say?"
4773Well, but Mr. Pitt''s language?
4773What can I do for you?
4773What shall I say to you about the ministry?
4773What,said he,"Oysters?"
4773When, Sir? 4773 Why,"said I,"Madam, you walked at the last?"
4773''Good morning, Thompson,''said Wilkes to him:''how does Mrs. Thompson do?
4773( 1079) Come; would the apparition of my Lord Chatham satisfy you?
4773( 164) If you can not trust yourself from Greatworth for a whole fortnight, how will you do in Ireland for six months?
4773( 275) I lament that you made so little of that voyage, but is this the season of unrewarded merit?
4773( 631) Now are you disappointed?
4773( 764)--When you read of the Picture quitting its panel,(765) did not you recollect the portrait of Lord Falkland, all in white, in my gallery?
4773( 930) Would not you expect this old man to be very agreeable?
4773( 982 Thus playfully imitated by Lord Byron, in December, 1816;"What are you doing now, oh Thomas Moore?
4773( 983) The Earl chaffered for the Bedfords, and who so willing as they?
4773( page 152) Pray, sir, how does virtue sell in Ireland now?
4773( page 266) It is an age, I own, since I wrote to you; but except politics, what was there to send you?
4773( page 30) How do you do?
4773( page 326) To be sure, you have heard the event of''this last week?
4773( page 481) I do n''t know when I shall see you, but therefore must not I write to you?
4773( page 485) Do n''t you think a complete year enough for any administration to last?
4773( page 499) Pray what are you doing?
4773( page 517) Well, dear Sir, does your new habitation improve as the spring advances?
4773( page 546) When you have been so constantly good to me, my dear lord, without changing, do you wonder that our friendship has lasted so long?
4773( page 68) Who the deuce was thinking of Quebec?
4773--"Shan''t you?"
4773A few days ago, on the cannon firing for the King going to the House, some body asked what it was?
4773A serious invective against a pickpocket, or written by a pickpocket, who has so little to do as to read?
4773After gratitude, you know, always comes a little self- interest; for who would be at the trouble of being grateful, if he had no further expectations?
4773All this is very well; but now for the consequences; what was I to do next?
4773Am I indifferent to hearing you?
4773And last night, Mr. Dauncey, asking George Selwyn if Princess Amelia would have a guard?
4773And thought you, Cupid and his mother Would unrevenged their anger smother?
4773And who are the ladies in the double half- lengths?
4773Apropos to babes: have you read Rousseau on Education?
4773Apropos, you did not tell me why he comes; is it to sell his uncle''s collection?
4773Are all your sons to be like those of the Amalekites?
4773Are not you ashamed, Madam, never to have put in your claim?
4773Are not you frozen, perished?
4773Are these my native accents?
4773Are we never to have the history of that cathedral?
4773Are you not struck with the great similarity there is between the first years of Charles the First and the present times?
4773Are you reconciled to your new habitation?
4773Are your cousins Cortez and Pizarro heartily mortified that they are not to roast and plunder the Americans?
4773As that man''s writings will be preserved by his name, who will believe that he was a tolerable actor?
4773As to the Pretender, his life or death makes no impression here when a real King is so soon forgot, how should an imaginary one be remembered?
4773Ask yourself-- is there a man in England with whom you would change character?
4773At his return the King asked him what he had been doing in England?
4773At least, could you not tell me you had changed your mind?
4773Besides, I shall not go to Paris for pharaoh-- if I play all night, how shall I see every thing all day?
4773Billing or cooing now?

4773Burton?"
4773Burton?"
4773But have you read Tom Hervey''s letter to the late King?
4773But how can I help it?
4773But how can you be surprised at his printing a thing that he sent you so long ago?
4773But is the government to be dictated to by one town?
4773But suppose they are not-what is the consequence?
4773But what do I talk of?
4773But why me?
4773Can I be so insensible to the honour or pleasure of your acquaintance When the advantage lies much on my side, am I likely to alter the first?
4773Can I hesitate a moment to show that there is at least one man who knows how to value you?
4773Can I send you a more welcome affirmative or negative?
4773Can I write to you joyfully, and fear?
4773Can greater honour be paid to it?
4773Can he shift for himself, especially without the language?
4773Can one believe the French negotiators are sincere, when their marshals are so false?
4773Can one but pity him?
4773Can you be angry with me, for can I be in fault to you?
4773Can you devise what happened next?
4773Can you really suppose that I think it any trouble to frank a few covers for you?
4773Come, has she saved two- pence by her charms?
4773Come, madam, you like what I like of them?
4773Common Sense, sit down: I have been thinking so and so; is not it absurd?"
4773Consider that the physicians recommended wine, and then can you doubt of its being poison?
4773Could I expect they would give me so absurd an account of Mr. Grenville''s conduct, and give it to me in writing?
4773Could I have believed that the Hague would so easily compensate for England?
4773Could I hear oratory beyond my Lord Chatham''s?
4773Could I let a Duke of York visit me, and never go to thank him?
4773Could you tell the world the reason?

29710And if such a thing be done in the green tree what will be done in the dry?
29710And if the premonitory symptoms be thus severe, how shall we doctor the disease itself?
29710And once an Irish Parliament is granted, how will he resist the demand for Irish independence, for the Irish Republic affiliated with America?

29710Are Englishmen acquainted with the history of Papal Rome?
29710Are Englishmen unacquainted with the traditional hatred of the Irish malcontents?
29710Are Englishmen willing to be longer fooled by a Government of nincompoops?

29710Are we such dastards as to give up that for which they shed their blood?
29710Are we to put our necks under the heels of a Parliament worked by Bishop Walsh of Dublin?
29710Are we to stand quietly aside and see the destinies of decent people entrusted to the leaders of a movement which owes its success to such supporters?
29710Are you any nearer success now than ever you were?
29710Are you going to put into the hands of your enemies the power to ruin you merely by biding their time?"

29710But is n''t that nonsense, says I?
29710But is their teaching designed or calculated to suit England?
29710But it may be objected-- If Irishmen have no respect for their members, why did they elect them?

29710But would you have Ireland alone to reckon with?

29710Can we ate it, can we dhrink it, can we shmoke it?
29710Can you depend on the loyalty of the Catholic priesthood?

29710He remonstrates, and they say,''What business have you here?
29710He said:--"Have Englishmen forgotten the previous history of the men she is now on the point of entrusting with her future?

29710Is n''t that true?
29710Is not England for the Irish, America, Australia, New Zealand?
29710Is not soap an enemy to the faith?
29710Is not the goodwill of the foinest pisintry in the wuruld more to be desired than much fine gold?
29710Is not the time for soft speaking nearly over?
29710Is not the whole system of Popery based on intolerance, on infallibility, on strict exclusiveness?
29710Is not this big print enough?
29710Is that new to you?
29710Is that thrue, now?
29710Is the Sisyphean stone of Home Rule, so laboriously rolled uphill, to again roll down, crushing in its fall the faithful rollers?
29710Is the as- you- were assertion an argument?
29710Is the hope that the ignorant peasantry of Ireland will return"the better class of men,"who"do not believe in Home Rule"an argument?
29710Is their want of energy due to breed, to religion, or to both?
29710Is there any class or trading interest which would be by working men entrusted with such enormous power?
29710Is there no antidote to this poison?
29710Is there no means of enlightenment available?
29710Is this opinion not well worth consideration?
29710Is this the class of men you wish to set over us as governors?"
29710It is?
29710Look at Gladstone, have ye anybody to come up to him?
29710Loyalty to England?
29710Loyalty?
29710More distress?
29710Morley?"
29710Mr. Gladstone?
29710No difference there, their object is one and the same, and when the priests and the farmers unite, who can compel them to pay up?
29710No doubt Lord Houghton''s first impulse would be to exclaim,"Then why on earth do n''t you use your advantages?
29710No?
29710Now, how is that?
29710Now, were not the Irish loyal when the English people disloyally favoured their Oliver Cromwell and their William the Third?"
29710On the other hand, does not appetite grow with what it feeds on?
29710Or be hung in a blaze with a hook in your backs, Till you all melt away like a cake of bees''-wax?
29710Otherwise, why ask for a Parliament?
29710Ought not the Irish people to be masters of Ireland?
29710Ought such people to have the franchise?
29710Patriots are they?
29710Perhaps ye have Gladstonian life- assurance offices in England?
29710Presently you will see the bearing of all this on your question-- Why do not the best Catholics come forward and speak against Home Rule?
29710Query-- if a given number of murders were required to bring about Home Rule, how many murders will be required to effect complete separation?
29710RENTS, the Ponsonby, 50; rack renting, 100; quite low enough, 143; what rack rent means, 190; land must be worth something, 228; to whom is rent due?
29710REPUBLIC, An Irish, 162; could we reconquer?
29710Saith not the wisest of men that a good report maketh the bones fat?
29710See that hill there?
29710Shall the sons be unworthy of the sires?
29710Shall we bow down to Popery?
29710Shall we truckle to Rome, shall we become slaves to Popish knaves, shall we become subservient to priestcraft and lying and roguery and trickery?
29710Since the bill became public and has been the subject of popular discussion, I brought out the Ballinrobe and Claremorris Railway-- with what result?
29710Sind_ me_ to Parlimint, till I get within whisperin''distance of Misther Gladstone-- within whisperin''distance, d''ye mind me?
29710So I got to know this, an''iver afther, whin they would be sayin''to me,"''Which is the best hotel in Ennis?''
29710Suppose we want £ 500 for some improvement, who will lend us the money?
29710Suppose you gave Ireland Home Rule, and the Church turned rusty?
29710Supposed they groaned under conscription like France and Germany, what then?
29710Sure''tis the English Government, an''what would it be else?
29710Sure, how would we do as we liked, wid an army of them fellows agin us?
29710Sure, the counthry wo n''t be able to do widout loans, an''who''ll lind ye money wid an Irish Parlimint?"
29710Surely the Gladstonian English admit that?
29710TOLERATION, would Catholics show?
29710That''s the inscription, and what does it mean?
29710The British Grenadiers would then come in, and where would be the Union of Hearts?
29710The Chairman wanted to know why the Yankees did not call the ugly brutes after Lord Salisbury and Colonel Saunderson?
29710The English Parliament, hoping to win over the farmers, who are the strength of Ireland, has made one concession after another, with what result?
29710The brutal Saxon with his ding- dong persistency may be making money, but how about his future interests?
29710The colleagues whom he had assorted at the same boards, stared at each other, and were obliged to ask,''Sir, your name?''
29710The helmsman is under their orders-- will he be heaved overboard before he has done his work?
29710The injustice of an Irish rent largely depends on the question, To whom is it due?
29710The most commonplace observation evokes a"D''ye see that, now?"
29710The murtherin'', sweatin''landlords that''ll grind the very soul out of ye-- who are they?
29710The only question was, would they clear out peaceably, or would it be necessary to call in the aid of the Irish Army of Independence?
29710The pledges of Dillon and Davitt-- what are they worth?
29710The small farmers thinks they''ll have the land for nothin'', but what about the labourers?
29710The_ Independent_ says,''When Ireland next fights England she will not fight alone?''
29710Their politics?
29710Then looking at the gambler''s black and polished feet, he said:--"Tell me, now, honey, is it Day an''Martin''s ye use?"
29710Then what hope is there of friendship in a Home Rule Bill which will infinitely increase the number of points of dispute?
29710Then why are the Limerick Catholics loyal?
29710Then why not take their advice?
29710Then why send them to Parliament, say you?
29710Then, whatever debts Ireland might incur England would have to pay, should Ireland repudiate them?
29710Then, why rouse more enmity?
29710There was iron at Ballyshannon, but what was the good?
29710These fellows ca n''t agree for five minutes together, and their principal subject of quarrel is-- Who shall be master?
29710They asked what would they do else, and what did he take them for?
29710They bate his servants next, an''said Will ye join?
29710They fought the thing out; but where was the good?
29710They have sent out lecturers and instructors, they have planted patches and grown the stuff, and shown the pecuniary results, and with what effect?
29710They never had no meetin''s; why?
29710They sent him terrible letthers wid skulls an''guns, an''coffins, an''they said Will ye join?
29710They smashed ivery pane o''glass in his house, an''they said Will ye join?
29710They talk about Home Rule, but what good will that do us?
29710They threw explosives into the house, an''said Will ye join?
29710They turn round angrily and say,''Was n''t it good enough for my father, an''was n''t he a betther man than ayther me or you?''
29710They will leave the land, I suppose?
29710This promises well for the success of the Home Rule Bill; but why is the thing"impossible"?
29710To how many of them would Gladstone lend a sovereign?
29710To shoot sparrows?
29710Turning to me, the bearded man said,"Did ye ever hear the pome about Saint Patrick''s birthday?"
29710Vote against him?
29710Was n''t I born among yez?
29710Was n''t I rared among yez?
29710Was n''t that hard lines?
29710Was not the disestablishment of the Church to remove all cause of discontent?
29710Was there ever a free and prosperous country where the Roman Catholic religion was predominant?"
29710We may have iron, but what''s the good when we have no coal to smelt it?
29710Well,''he says,''who was he?''
29710What Englishman would have done as much for his grandmother?
29710What are Englishmen going to do?
29710What are they to- day?
29710What are ye standin''there for?
29710What business have the English here at all domineering over us?
29710What can do a man good who tries to get his dinner by standing about and saying how hungry he is?
29710What can the poor folks do?
29710What can you say for them after that?"

29710What d''ye take me for?
29710What did Parnell say?

29710What do you think?"
29710What does O''Connor mean by the 100,000 Irish arms?
29710What does it mane at all, at all?

29710What more natural?

29710What right, moral or legal, have these Colquhouns, these Galbraiths, these Andersons, to Irish soil?
29710What shall I do if Home Rule becomes law?
29710What stops them?
29710What then?

29710What''s the use of listening to argument when you must in the end vote as Father Pat orders?
29710What''s the use of thinking about anything when Father Pat does it for them?
29710What''s this he called it?
29710What''s to hinder it?
29710When I saw the curiously- selected years, I said, why 1861, 1877, and 1891?
29710When the Archbishop produces no effect, what''s the good of a plain layman''s cursing?
29710When the big farms is all done away who''ll employ the labourers?
29710When the great Bill impends, why flee the festive scene?
29710When the last trump shall sound and the dead shall be raised, where will be the workers on saints''days?

29710Why do heretics flourish where the faithful starve?
29710Why do n''t they send them now?

29710Why does n''t England kick it out of the way?
29710Why does not Bull put his foot on it at once?
29710Why does not the Unionist party bring about this exposure?
29710Why give them the temptation?
29710Why is the gulf not only profound but also"impassible"?

29710With good quays, piers, storehouses, and a broad deep river, opening on the Atlantic, why do n''t you do some business?"
29710With matters in the hands of an Irish Parliament, who would have the pull in weight of influence, John Bull or the priests?
29710With your Home Rule Bills, your Irish Church Bills, your successive Land Bills, how much have you done?
29710Wo n''t the owner be a landlord?
29710Would English navvies work for that?
29710Would Englishmen have exposed themselves to the ridicule of a story which is curiously remindful of Robinson Crusoe and his big canoe?
29710Would Englishmen let such men govern their country?
29710Would n''t you like to be a landlord under such conditions?
29710Would such a thing be permitted on the Continent?

29710Yes, they have rifles now, and what for?
29710Yes, we''ll take the bill; what else will we do?
29710You are going down the line?
29710You ca n''t guess?
29710You do n''t drink the Rea at Birmingham, I think?"
29710You do?
29710You have told them?
29710You see my point?
29710You think so?
29710You think that the people may be fairly expected to return the same class of men?
29710You want to know what''s the reason?
29710_ Now_ d''ye ondhershtand who''s masther, ye idle, skulkin'', schamin'', disrespictable baste?"
29710_ Thigum thu_, brutal and heretic Saxon?
29710_ You_ are the children of the soil, but who has the farms?''
29710a"D''ye tell me so, thin?"
29710says the Grand Old Man, Whin will ye come back?
29710well, they are blind tools of the priests: what else can be said?
29710why should you bleed, To swell the tide of English glory?
29710you wo n''t?
4919( 145) Has Lord Cholmondeley delivered my pacquet? 4919 ( 841) Was not that sentence the sublime of innocence?
4919As Richard declared his nephew the Earl of Warwick his successor, would he have done so, if he had forged an act of attainder of Warwick''s father? 4919 Ay, seen; or who, what is the woman that has been here?"
4919Did neither Sir T. More nor Lord Bacon ever hear of that forgery? 4919 Does it?"
4919Is it impossible,said I to the Doctor,"but they might correspond with the King even by Anne''s own consent?
4919Who is Sir Robert Walpole?
4919if it is supposed he forged the act, when he set aside Warwick, could he pretend that act was not known when he declared him his heir? 4919 why, Sir, have you read the note?"
4919( 370) Had not we one before in ancient days?
4919( 459) Would not one think that our newspapers were penned by boys just come from school for the information of their sisters and cousins?
4919( 541) How should I?
4919( 634) or do you agree with me, that there is no occasion to rebuild it?
4919( 695) In a letter written in this month to Walpole, Miss More asks,"Where and how are the Berrys?
4919( 71) Shall I keep them for you or send them, and how?
4919( page 402) Wo n''t you repent of having opened the correspondence, my dear Madam, when you find my letters come so thick upon you?
4919( page 78) What shall I say?
4919A man charged with every state crime almost, for twenty years, was proved to have done-- what?
4919Am I abused or well- spoken of in print?
4919And how has either House shown that it has any talent for war?
4919And if it had the power, how could it be divested of that power again?
4919And if it were not, how long would it retain its virtues?
4919And that your lessons may win their way more easily, even though her heart be good, will you add a guinea or two, as you see proper?
4919And what are princes and princesses without velvet and ermine?
4919And what does he think of the poor man executed at Birmingham, who declared at his death, he had been provoked by the infamous handbill?
4919And what was the consequence?
4919And when every set of men have acted every part, to whom shall the well- meaning look up?
4919And when one can afford to pay for every relief, comfort, or assistance that can be procured at fourscore, dares one complain?
4919And which of us begins the search a tabula rasa?
4919And who but runs that risk who is an author after severity?
4919And who do you think propagated it?
4919And who has fewer?
4919And who has more cause to be thankful to Providence for his lot?
4919And who have been the perpetrators of, or advocates for, such universal devastation?
4919And why can one care about nothing but what one does not know?
4919And why is every event worth hearing, only because one has not heard it?
4919And why should One litter the world at that age?
4919And will you be so good as to tell me whither I shall send them, or how direct and convey them to you at Bristol?
4919And you, dear Sir, will you now chide my apostacy?
4919Another, to the same purpose, was devised at Cawoode,--was not that an episcopal palace?
4919Apropos-- and not much-- pray tell me whether the Cardinal of York calls himself King; and whether James the Eighth, Charles the Fourth, or what?
4919Are not YOU in despair about the summer?
4919Are not nations as liable to intoxication as individuals?
4919Are not predictions founded on calculation oftener rejected than the prophecies of dreamers?
4919Are not the devils escaped out of the swine, and overrunning the earth headlong?
4919Are not the ministers and the Parliament the same thing?
4919Are the poor that will suffer by the tax, the wretched labourers who are dragged from their famishing families to work on the roads?
4919Are the writers as uneasy as they used to be about my vanity?
4919Are there not calamities enough in store for us, but must destruction be our amusement and pursuit?
4919Are those who have landed estates the poor?
4919Are we not revelling on the brink of the precipice?
4919As I returned full of this scene, whom should I find sauntering by my own door but Charles?
4919Besides, every word was the truth of my heart; and why should not you see what is or was in it?
4919Blunder, I see, people will, and talk of what they do not understand@ and what care I?

4919What shall I say to you, dear Sir, about Dr. Prescot?
4919What shall I tell you else?
4919What shall I tell you more?
4919What signifies anticipating what we can not prevent?
4919What signifies raising the dead so often, when they die the next minute?
4919What writings has he left?
4919When a little emmet, standing on its ant- hill, could get a peep into infinity, how could he think he saw a corner in it?-a retired corner?
4919When did England see two whole armies lay down their arms and surrender themselves prisoners?
4919When do all men concur in the Same sentence?
4919When one King breaks one parliament, and another, what can the result be but despotism?
4919When will you blue- stocking yourself and come amongst us?
4919When will you come and accept my thanks?
4919When will you sit down on the quiet banks of the Thames?
4919When, till now, could one make such a reflection without horror to one''s self?
4919Whence is any good to come?
4919Where did you find a spoonful of Latin about you?
4919Where is he?
4919Where is not it thought heresy by the majority, to insinuate that the felicity of one man ought not to be preferred to that Of Millions?
4919Where is that prodigy to be found?
4919Whether Rowley or Chatterton was the author, are the poems in any degree comparable to those authors?
4919Who are his executors?
4919Who is that true professor of physic?
4919Who is the author, E. B. G. of a version of Mr. Gray''s Latin Odes into English,(237) and of an Elegy on my wolf- devoured dog, poor Tory?
4919Who knows but my Lord Admiral bought them?
4919Who would have thought we were so reasonable?
4919Why make commonplace reflections?
4919Why should I presume that, at sixty- four, I am too wise to marry?
4919Why should it not be with you and Mr. Essex, whom I shall be very glad to see-- but what do you talk of a single day?
4919Why should not you add to your claustral virtues that of a peregrination to Strawberry?
4919Why should one remember people that forget themselves?
4919Why should you be stunned with that alarum?
4919Why then does he stay?
4919Why, if I did send a letter after you, could not you keep it three months without an answer, as you did last year?
4919Will Wilkes, and Parson Horne, and Junius( for they will name the members) give us more virtuous representations than ministers have done?
4919Will it advance the war?
4919Will it make peace?
4919Will not Lady Strafford think that I abuse your patience?
4919Will the East be more propitious to him than the West?
4919Will the French you converse with be civil and keep their countenances?
4919Will you allow me to mention two instances?
4919Will you and Lady Ailesbury come to Strawberry before, or after Goodwood?
4919Will you not think me too difficult and squeamish, when I find the language of"The Law of Lombardy"too rich?
4919Will you say a civil thing for me to his widow, if she is living, and you think it not improper?
4919Will you trouble yourself to look?
4919Would he be persuaded?
4919Would it be presumption, even if one were single, to think that we must have the worst in such a contest?
4919Would it not be dreadful to be commended by an age that had not taste enough to admire his Odes?
4919Would it not too be more natural for Bireno to incense the king against Paladore than to endeavour to make the latter jealous of Sophia?
4919Would not it be prudent to look upon the encomium as a funeral oration, and consider Myself as dead?
4919Would not it be sufficient to build an after- room on the whole emplacement, to which people might resort from all assemblies?
4919Would so warm a patriot then, though so obedient a courtier now, have suppressed the charge to this hour?
4919Yet how does this agree with Franc`es''s(27) eager protestations that Choiseul''s fate depended on preserving the peace?
4919Yet who could ever pass a tranquil moment, if such future speculations vexed him?
4919Yet why should I not ask you to come and see me?
4919Yet why?
4919You and I have lived too long for our comfort-- shall we close our eyes in peace?
4919You ask how you have deserved such attentions?
4919You say you hear no news, yet you quote Mr. Topham;(615) therefore why should I tell you that the King is going to Cheltenham?
4919You say,"Is it probable that this instrument was framed by Richard Duke of Gloucester?"
4919You see by the papers, that the flame has burst out at Florence: can Pisa then be secure?
4919You tell me nothing of Lady Harriet; have you no tongue, or the French no eyes?
4919You will naturally ask what place I have gotten, or what bribe I have taken?
4919and as I must fetch some of the books from Strawberry Hill, will you wait till I can send them all together?
4919and can such letters be worth showing?
4919and could it think these rewards inadequate?
4919and have not two such volumes sometimes set you a''yawning?
4919and how could your healths mend in bad inns, and till you can repose somewhere?
4919and how should it have the power, if it had all the rest?
4919and if one of the apostles was in the wrong, who may not be mistaken?
4919and shall leave it without regret!--Can we be proud when all Europe scorns us?
4919and that I am not aware of them?
4919and that our still more natural friend, Holland,(411) would be driven into the league against us?
4919and was not the ambassador so to allow it?
4919and was you, who know so many of my weaknesses, in the wrong to suspect me of one more?
4919and when it arrives, shall I not be somewhere else?
4919and which the antiquaries, who know a man by his crown better than by his face, have rejected likewise?
4919and who could draw Falstaffe, but the writer of Falstaffe?
4919and will it not vex you to hear the translation taken for the original, and to find vulgarisms that you could not have committed yourself?
4919and yet, is it possible?
4919and, above all, lies enough?
4919and, being only a most zealous friend, do you think I will hear of it?
4919and, what would be still worse, exposed to receive all visits?
4919asked, if that might not mean Gibraltar?
4919bankruptcies and robberies enough?
4919but can we or they tell how, except when it is by the most expeditious of all means, gaming?
4919comment reparer un meurtre?
4919cried an old woman in the crowd,"why should not he like a collation?"

4919is not a ridiculous author an object of ridicule?

4919nay, what can be Our expectation?
4919never have reproached him with so absurd a forgery?
4919or England, were ungrateful in not rewarding his services?
4919or are her eyes employed in nothing but seeing?
4919or can I have any spirit when so old, and reduced to dictate?
4919or can I retain my sentiments, without varying the object?
4919or is Catiline to save us, butt so as by fire?
4919or is he forming Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, and Sark, into the united provinces in the compass of a silver penny?
4919or its dispensations?
4919or of what else is it a proof?
4919or what I say to him?
4919or what avails it to store a memory that must lose faster than it acquires?
4919said the clerk,"would you receive the contents immediately?"
4919that Lord Hawkesbury is added to the cabinet- council-- que vous importe?
4919that we would reject the disposition of Russia to support us?
4919themes for letters?
4919v. p. 227.-E.( 192) Madame du Deffand, writing of General Conway to Walpole, had said--"Savez- vous combien il connait d`ej`a de personnes dans Paris?

4919what are all our opinions else?
4919what have you seen?"
4919when shall we have peace and tranquility?
4919where is my Postscript?
4919which Mr. Gray thought worth transcribing, and which were so valuable, would one offer more pearls?

43617''And sal I be de only exception?'' 43617 ''And what then?''
43617''How much?'' 43617 ''Pleasure?''
43617''Vat then? 43617 ''Vot den for Got, devil he send me here to learn agriculture?''
43617''Vot is next?'' 43617 ''Vy, lord,''answered Smith,''vat but the vinds and the vaves could bring me here, hey?
43617''What distance is Lyme Regis from this village?'' 43617 ''What might that be pray?''
43617''What then,''I inquired, in astonishment,''are you sorry he was not impudent to you?'' 43617 ''Who the devil are you?''
43617''Why?'' 43617 ''With whom pray do you console yourself?''
43617''You will not trust yourself with me then?'' 43617 ''_ Mais où est, donc, ce petit coquin de docteur?_''said William, in a conciliatory tone.
43617Already?
43617Alvanly, shall I have the pleasure of drinking wine with you?
43617Am I forgiven?
43617Am I not to be introduced to your friend?
43617And Cotton?
43617And Lady Fanny''s age?
43617And Miss, do you expect me to find you in stamps too?
43617And Sophia?
43617And another thing is what you wish for?
43617And did I not promise Mistress Kitty, the mother of him, that I would stick by her darling till the breath was clane out of his body? 43617 And did he send you the two hundred pounds?"
43617And did not you then begin to hate me?
43617And did they not take you too?
43617And his name?
43617And how came it to become him so well?
43617And how does Sophia like him?
43617And how might your talent be applied, Ma''am?
43617And how will your particular friend Frederick Lamb like that?
43617And if I fall in love with him?
43617And if it should happen so?
43617And is that absolutely necessary?
43617And look at that tie?
43617And may I pay you a visit?
43617And may be you would not approve nather, of their nate, compact little fashion of breaking a head, perhaps?
43617And my kisses? 43617 And now pray, Mr. Shuffle, if I may be so bold, what might have brought you up to London?
43617And of what service was that to me, think you? 43617 And pray are not these the tickets of this box?"
43617And pray, Pat, what takes you over to Oxford?
43617And pray, sir,said the eldest lady bridling,"do we look like people who would bemean ourselves by going into the pit?"
43617And pray,continued Hodson,"where''s the perpetual motion you were wriggling after so long?
43617And so you really are at last caught, my lord,said I,"fairly caught in love''s trap?
43617And suppose I loved you?
43617And suppose I should grow wicked on the road?
43617And the Duke,inquired I, with something like a sickness of the heart,"is he as tender and as loving as ever?"
43617And therefore,I remarked,"you suffered him to continue his visits as usual?"
43617And vat sal I do vid dis clean voman vat you talk to me about?
43617And was it you who----?
43617And what answer did you make?
43617And what becomes of you?
43617And what for me?
43617And what is to become of her poor children?
43617And what says Colonel Quintin?
43617And what then?
43617And what think you of Wellesley?
43617And what,I continued,"have you done with Palmella?"
43617And where are you to sleep?
43617And where did you ever see a stupid, prosing poet, who did feel his own inferiority?
43617And where is that poor dear little man now?
43617And where''s my son Fred?
43617And who is to protect Mildmay''s child?
43617And who shall be the father to give me away, and be a witness to prove my marriage?
43617And whom does he love?
43617And why not?
43617And why, pray?
43617And yet you come here every day?
43617And you are not jealous?
43617And you desire and permit me to walk about the country with him?
43617And you will be glad to see me on my return then?
43617And you''d have me chated and diddled out on the fare as well as the service? 43617 And you,"said I to Argyle,"suppose you were to break your appointment to- night?"
43617And you?
43617And your amiable daughters? 43617 And, since there is nothing to be said against him, what excuse can you make for using him so ill?"
43617And, when he is gone, there will be no man you care about left in England?
43617Any answer for Lord Fife, ma''am?
43617Any answer for the servant?
43617Apropos to marriage, duke, how do you like it?
43617Apropos to what?
43617Apropos to what?
43617Apropos,he added,"you told Frederick that I walked about the turnpike looking for you, and that, no doubt, to make him laugh at me?"
43617Are there no constables here?
43617Are you a girl of the town?
43617Are you acquainted with her, then?
43617Are you alone?
43617Are you certain of this?
43617Are you ever taken with either a fit of reading, or a fit of romance, Berkely?
43617Are you fond of looking at jewellery?
43617Are you going to tell me that you were tipsy, when you last did me the favour to mistake my house for an inn, or something worse?
43617Are you hungry?
43617Are you not going home, pretty?
43617Are you old?
43617Are you quick, good- tempered, honest, handy,& c.& c, when one can as well answer all these questions in their name, oneself, with a single yes?
43617Are you quite certain that it is the Duke himself you want to see, and not the young marquis?
43617Are you quite sure?
43617Are you sure you have not mistaken me for the sun?
43617As to you,said Fred,"you are a beautiful creature, and I come to try to reform you, or else what will become of you when you grow old?"
43617Beautiful Amy, how do you do?
43617Because what?
43617Because what?
43617But Julia?
43617But answer me,said Baron Tuille, addressing himself to me,"does the Duke of Leinster go to the continent this year?"
43617But do you believe,interrupted Julia,"that I should have asked you to dine with me, if I had not been particularly struck and pleased with you?
43617But r- e- a- l- l- y, r- e- a- l- l- y, ca- ca- cannot Tom She- She- She- Sheridan assist you, marquis?
43617But suppose he insists, William?
43617But the German prince?
43617But then after the mouse is gone to bed,said I,"how does her ladyship amuse herself?"
43617But were you not also afraid of being called a coward?
43617But what in the name of the devil is your ass of a coachman keeping us here for?
43617But what reason have you for making the journey?
43617But why is he called a lady- killer?
43617But why?
43617But, Fanny, you will make a point of cutting this grocer, I hope?
43617But,said I,"why did you suffer his lordship to be eternally at your house?"
43617Can I forward you a bundle of pens, or anything?
43617Can I, or my cook, do anything in the world to be useful to her?
43617Can this be a mere masquerade- attitude for effect, practised in an empty room?
43617Can we really be admitted in riding habits?
43617Could you have believed it, madam?
43617Could you have thought it?
43617Dear little Harry, have I frightened you?
43617Dear me, Sir William, how could she be so foolish as to run away? 43617 Did I not desire you to mention, Monsieur le Clerc, when you took my place, that the basket was to go inside?"
43617Did Sydenham say your returning the two hundred pounds would be too great a sacrifice also?
43617Did he not what?
43617Did not I tell you he would soon join us?
43617Did not you drive here in it?
43617Did you all three come up by steam, or how?
43617Did you believe that young creature was so depraved?
43617Did you bring this note, pray?
43617Did you ever hear of General Mackenzie?
43617Did you ever know any good of one of them?
43617Did you ever see such an impudent rascal, my dear Sophia?
43617Did you ever speak to him?
43617Did you see me play the methodist parson, in a tub, at Mrs. Beaumont''s masquerade last Thursday?
43617Did you send the letter I wrote for you?
43617Do n''t you know Fisher, the lady- killer of these parts?
43617Do n''t you know,said thickhead,"do n''t you know,_ Belle Harriette_, that I am blind as well as deaf, and a little absent too?"
43617Do n''t you understand French?
43617Do not you really know what place this is? 43617 Do you allude to an innocent girl, prince?"
43617Do you believe in God?
43617Do you call my love of God pride?
43617Do you come from the''enemy''?
43617Do you doubt it still?
43617Do you fancy me then so humble and so void of taste as to buy with my money the reluctant embraces of any woman breathing? 43617 Do you hear?"
43617Do you keep a valet, sir?
43617Do you know Lord Ponsonby?
43617Do you know a Mr. George Brummell?
43617Do you know anything about this funeral, or that poor young female who has just followed it?
43617Do you know that Lord Worcester is expected to bring home the next despatches?
43617Do you know what the Duke of York says of you Fred?
43617Do you know,said I to him one day,"do you know the world talk about hanging you?"
43617Do you know,said he,"that this is a very clever work?"
43617Do you mean to remain all your life in town?
43617Do you not breathe with rather less pain?
43617Do you presume to judge of Inglish''s Aperient, who have swallowed but one?
43617Do you propose dining with her?
43617Do you really believe Fisher wanted to intrigue with you?
43617Do you really mean to say that Fisher ever hinted anything like a wish to be favoured by you?
43617Do you return to Grosvenor Square first?
43617Do you think I believe all this incredible, romantic nonsense? 43617 Do you think that fine boy, her brother, would like to go to sea?"
43617Do you think they would feel happier if they were in possession of your promises of marriage?
43617Do you wish to leave me now, then?
43617Do, my pretty little Meyler, tell me what you would be at?
43617Does anybody mean to go to Elliston''s masquerade?
43617Does not that satisfy you?
43617Does this young man love me?
43617Does your lordship always attend the French Opera?
43617Duke,said I, interrupting him,"was it not your first and most anxious wish that Worcester should go abroad?"
43617Eh?
43617Eliza,said I,"why do you weep?
43617Fanny, my dear Fanny,said I,"can you make yourself so completely wretched for a man who acts without common humanity towards you?"
43617Fever? 43617 For what, I pray?"
43617From what?
43617General who?
43617Good gracious Mr. Meyler, is it you?
43617Green tea is the best, is it not, Miss?
43617Had we not better try another inn?
43617Have not I just given you a specimen, in the shape of a handsome quotation?
43617Have you applied to his lordship on that subject?
43617Have you everything that you require, at this end of the table?
43617Have you forgotten the promise you made to your father?
43617He was Fred Lamb''s General in Yorkshire?
43617He was very much in love with her then?
43617He will write, of course?
43617How am I to inquire the character of your sweetheart, for God''s sake?
43617How am I to know all your ragamuffins?
43617How came Lord Proby''s black small- clothes here?
43617How came he to be so shy?
43617How can it be avoided till I am of age?
43617How can that young man stand by and see two women so shockingly insulted, and not come forward to offer his protection?
43617How can you all encourage this cold- blooded heartless creature? 43617 How can you fancy I would marry a d----d old Italian, old enough to be my mother?
43617How can you strive to make fools of people?
43617How can you wait in this dress in the middle of the streets?
43617How could I be so stupid,said he:"but you will allow me to set you down in a hackney- coach?"
43617How could it possibly be settled then?
43617How did Ebrington like being_ congédié?_he inquired.
43617How did you get home last night?
43617How did you like Lady Caroline Lamb?
43617How did your Grace''s party on the river go off this morning?
43617How do you do, Harriette?
43617How do you do? 43617 How do you do?
43617How do you do? 43617 How do you find yourself this evening, my very excellent neighbour?"
43617How do you know I ever did?
43617How do you know?
43617How do you like Oxford?
43617How do you mean favoured?
43617How do you mean impossible,I asked?
43617How do you mean, madam?
43617How is it possible to be so? 43617 How is it possible,"I replied,"even if I wished it, since Meyler will not absent himself an hour from me, unless it is to accompany you somewhere?
43617How is one to obtain a sight of your beauty?
43617How is that?
43617How is this?
43617How is your poetical doctor?
43617How pray?
43617How should I know?
43617How so?
43617How so?
43617How so?
43617How, pray?
43617I asked Argyle,Tom Sheridan proceeded,"how he had addressed his last letters to you?
43617I beg I may hear of no such thing,said I, hastily--"else, where would he go to, I wonder, without his small- clothes?"
43617I believe, sir,addressing the beau smirkingly,"I fancy, sir, I have had the pleasure of meeting you before?
43617I may not call on you then?
43617I may now, then,said Samuel,"conclude this unpleasant business is amicably settled?"
43617I say?
43617I want to know where you live?
43617I was in hopes there would be act the fourth,retorted I;"but, seriously, what do you understand by a scene?"
43617I was in love enough once,I rejoined,"God knows, and what good did it do me?"
43617I wish to inquire of his lordship respectfully, if he has objections to tell me whether or not he has ever threatened to put me under arrest? 43617 I wonder,"said Miss Eliza Higgins, as she assisted at my toilette,"I wonder if the Earl of Fife will be at Vauxhall?
43617If Fred Bentinck meets a woman of my loose morals in this dress,_ il croira que c''est la belle Madeleine!_"But where is your bonnet?
43617If I do really believe in a God, and a hereafter, would you have me affect to be a disbeliever? 43617 If he does, will you do it?"
43617If this is really my character, and you imagine I should act thus for ever towards every man, how can you be so very weak as to like me?
43617If what?
43617If you were to die, who would stand my friend when the world tramples on me? 43617 In a year, then,"said Meyler,"if Worcester does not return?"
43617In what way, pray?
43617In what way?
43617Is Amy at home to- night?
43617Is Meyler really gone without me, then?
43617Is Mr. Meyler in the house?
43617Is anybody here who can lend me two shillings to pay my hackney- coach?
43617Is he handsome?
43617Is he not an odious little monster of ill- nature, take him altogether?
43617Is his lordship punctual generally speaking, pray, ma''am?
43617Is it her beauty then which has won your heart?
43617Is it in good spirits then, you reckon me? 43617 Is it not charming weather?"
43617Is it possible that you seriously wish to avoid all this impertinence?
43617Is it possible, think you,I inquired of his lordship,"is it possible to pass one''s life with a man of bad temper?"
43617Is it to be a state party?
43617Is it what rasin had I? 43617 Is not Beckendorff a general in the service of the Emperor?"
43617Is not the boy they call Frank supposed to be a son of the duke?
43617Is that Berkeley Paget peeping out of Amy''s box? 43617 Is that Mr. Frederick Lamb''s ghost?"
43617Is that a boy, or a girl, think you?
43617Is that all? 43617 Is that an Irish wig you have got on your head, Pat?"
43617Is that meant for a joke, or a matter of fact?
43617Is the duke there?
43617Is there any sort of comparison to be made between you and that mad woman?
43617Is there nothing in the tone of my voice or in my manner which seems familiar to you?
43617It is from your husband then?
43617Lady Abdy was musical then?
43617Leinster is coming to take you to your carriage, I know,said he,"and I wish----""What do you wish?"
43617Lord bless us, how can you ask such stupid questions, Lord Petersham?
43617Lord help the woman,said Julia,"what can have put it into her head to appear this beautiful weather in such a costume?"
43617MY DEAR MISS WILSON,--Will you be so condescending as to allow me to pass this evening alone with you after Lord Lansdowne''s party? 43617 Madeira?"
43617Mais ou est donc madame la Comtesse?
43617May I presume to inquire after the_ petite santé_ of Miss Eliza Higgins?
43617May I see you constantly till I go?
43617May I speak plainly?
43617May I,said Lord Worcester eagerly, as though he dreaded an interruption,"may I, on my return to town, venture to pay my respects?"
43617Might he write to me?
43617Must you go home, already?
43617My God,said Meyler, one day, striking his head violently with his hand,"what am I to do?
43617My dear Fanny, what is the matter?
43617My dear Fanny,said I,"what am I to do with your boy George?
43617My dear Fanny,said I,"what is the matter?
43617My dear, dear Harriette,continued Argyle, in great alarm,"for God''s sake, tell me what on earth I have done to offend you?"
43617My dear, dear young lady,said Mrs. Butler, looking at me with much compassion,"what has happened to that sweet, merry, blooming face of yours?"
43617My dear,continued Fanny,"why do you take such pains to convince me of what you know I have never had cause to doubt?
43617My good man, where can I procure a safe guide and protector, to walk with me to the Crown Inn?
43617My lord,said one,"have you spoken to the manager about bringing my young friend out at the opera house this season?"
43617My love, what is to be done?
43617No, nothing is asked, but whether Harriette Wilson approves of this or that? 43617 No; I would be more or less: anything rather than myself; but what is all this to you?
43617Not if I continue separated from Worcester?
43617Not much?
43617Not surely, if I were secret as the grave itself?
43617Not the Duke of Leinster?
43617Nothing more?
43617Now I hope you are quite convinced that your being left in my hall was contrary to my knowledge, and gives me real concern?
43617Now can anything come up to your vanity in writing to Lorne, that you are the most beautiful creature on earth?
43617Now what would you say if I had discovered a fairy, witch, or magician, who would this very night do all I have named for us?
43617Now you have discovered it,said Ponsonby, laughing;"I am going to die!--Would you regret me?"
43617Nugent is not dead, I hope?
43617Of course, Worcester, I may trust to this assurance made in your presence?
43617Oh dear, ma''am, what would you advise me to wear? 43617 Oh dear,"said Julia,"what shall I do?"
43617Oh,said Paragon,"do you hear the screams of that infant?"
43617Oh,_ mon Dieu_?
43617Oppression? 43617 P.S.--How do Amy and her schoolmaster of Athens go on?"
43617Pray William,said his mother,"why do you come to the Hoppera in that hodious round''at, after giving such a price for a three- cornered one?"
43617Pray does Lord Wellesley make his love too, as well as his reputation, by proxy?
43617Pray how comed you to be so rich, hey? 43617 Pray what do you Irish know about wig- making?"
43617Pray who made that lovely shoe to fit that pretty foot so charmingly?
43617Pray, Sir, must one come here in a bob- wig?
43617Pray, sir,said the fat gentleman, speaking louder,"may I be bold to ask which of they two foreigners might be the Russian Emperor?"
43617Shall I find you there?
43617Shall I make you a cup of tea, Sir William?
43617Shall I speak frankly?
43617Shall I tell Lorne,said poor Tom, with an effort to recover his usual gaiety,"that you will write to him, or will you come to the Tennis- court?"
43617Shall I write to your uncle, Lord Carysfort?
43617Shall the waistcoat be made with pockets and flaps, pray?
43617Shall we go to the nursery?
43617Shall you want to run away from me?
43617She came then?
43617She has bespoken a boy then?
43617She is not a flirt, I believe?
43617Sir?
43617Smith,said I,"those bills were paid to- day, I hope?"
43617So you have cut poor Argyle, and are in love again with a man of my acquaintance?
43617Suppose we make a party, and hire a house for you and Julia and me?
43617Suppose we turn our horses''heads towards Paris again?
43617Suppose you had paid the whole?
43617Surely you are not putting off the Earl of Fife?
43617Swear, sir? 43617 Tell me, dear Harriette, should you be sorry?"
43617Tell me; did you several times receive money sent to you in a blank envelope by the post?
43617Thank God, Ebrington is off for Italy,said he;"and, knowing you were alone, how could I resist paying you a visit?"
43617The ambassador?
43617The earl may yet arrive then?
43617The leg is a boy''s, the finest I ever saw,said one;"but then that foot, where shall we find a boy with such delicate feet and hands?"
43617Then perhaps you are only out of health,said I,"instead of out of spirits?
43617Then why did you not call at the oilshop?
43617Then you can declare, at all events, that you never made his acquaintance?
43617Then, I suppose, Berkeley, you would have no objection to part with that coat?
43617Those leaders are not bad: who made them?
43617Three in a curricle?
43617To Argyle House, I suppose?
43617To be sure not, who the devil waits for men?
43617To be sure not,said Alvanly,"who the devil would wait for you?"
43617Upon red and grey hair, I presume?
43617Upon your honour and word, you do not like me?
43617Upon your honour does the Duke really wish to take from me the means of existence, even if I effectually and for ever separate myself from his son?
43617Vot you tink vos in this man''s garten? 43617 Vy do you set there?"
43617Was that the Marquis of Worcester who ran out of your home in such a hurry, as I was getting out of my carriage?
43617Was the Earl of Fife in the gardens?
43617Was this honourable?
43617Well Miss Sophia, so you''ve made a new conquest?
43617Well sir; what have you to say?
43617Well then, let me hear you speak in your own language?
43617Well then, since it is natural to break your head, which fact I do not in the least dispute, may it not be as natural to adorn it occasionally? 43617 Well then,"said Miss Higgins,"I confess that I once----""Once what?"
43617Well, Soph, my love, are you glad to see me?
43617Well, but having lost your place, why trouble yourself to go down when it is too late?
43617Well, my lord,continued the sergeant, looking sheepish,"you see, if you would just mention it to Colonel Quintin?"
43617Well, what can you do for us?
43617Well?
43617Well?
43617Well?
43617Were it not wiser to advise me not to walk about with him?
43617Were you ever seriously in love, my lord?
43617Were you quite sober?
43617What again at your hundred and fourth psalm?
43617What am I to do, Lord Worcester?
43617What are you afraid of?
43617What are you going to do this evening?
43617What are you thinking about?
43617What are you writing?
43617What business had that man to stick himself up there?
43617What can be the matter with Sophia?
43617What can be the matter with you, Harriette?
43617What can he be going to do to me?
43617What can she be?
43617What can you be laughing at so violently?
43617What could induce you to be so very rude?
43617What do you ask for this pretty, black- eyed girl?
43617What do you call a slip? 43617 What do you call bad?"
43617What do you know about living on a bone?
43617What do you laugh at, you tiresome creature?
43617What do you mean by a woman like me?
43617What do you mean by depraved?
43617What do you mean, pray?
43617What do you mean? 43617 What do you mean?"
43617What do you mean?
43617What do you think Meyler would say, if he found you in his house?
43617What do you think of Colonel Cotton?
43617What do you think of him?
43617What do you think of his lordship?
43617What do you think of this, Samuel?
43617What does Sydenham do for the Marquis of Wellesley?
43617What else can be done?
43617What flirtation is going on there, pray, between you two?
43617What for?
43617What for?
43617What for?
43617What has become of Amy and Argyle?
43617What has become of Lord Deerhurst''s valuable jewels?
43617What has become of him?
43617What has happened to you pray?
43617What has he done?
43617What have I,continued Lord William,"to recommend myself to your notice?
43617What intimacy ever existed between you and me, pray, beyond that of common acquaintance?
43617What is Lord Molyneux doing with Mrs. Fitzroy Stanhope?
43617What is all this to me? 43617 What is he like?"
43617What is his name?
43617What is his name?
43617What is his name?
43617What is his name?
43617What is incredibly astonishing?
43617What is it you dislike about me, then?
43617What is that like?
43617What is that to me? 43617 What is that to you, you little fool?"
43617What is that to you?
43617What is that, pray, Miss?
43617What is the matter between you and Livius? 43617 What is the matter with you, young gentleman?"
43617What is the matter, Meyler? 43617 What is the matter, my sweet young lady?"
43617What is the matter?
43617What is the matter?
43617What is the matter?
43617What is the play?
43617What manner of man have you seen?
43617What necessity can there possibly be for disfiguring yourself so?
43617What o''clock is it?
43617What reason did he give?
43617What shall I say to his grace?
43617What shall we do there?
43617What signifies having credit, in such a vulgar place as that?
43617What sort of a man is Mr. Fisher, the attorney of Lyme Regis?
43617What sort of a man is an opulent- looking man?
43617What sort of animals were they?
43617What the deuce can all this mean?
43617What the devil has that to do with it?
43617What the devil is that to me?
43617What the devil is the matter?
43617What the devil is the matter?
43617What then is to become of me?
43617What then, do you all live together?
43617What then, you have forgotten the Earl of Fife already?
43617What then?
43617What were you doing before that, pray, ma''am?
43617What will become of me?
43617What will you say to your uncle?
43617What wo n''t do?
43617What would you give to be as clever as Carlo?
43617What, alone?
43617What, are you out of employment then?
43617What, are you the bawd?
43617What, in those dirty boots?
43617What, returned already?
43617What,cried out the many- mouthed mob,"you are another lord, I suppose?
43617What,said Armstrong,"does she never have anything but black pudding?"
43617When are you to see him again?
43617When did you come to town?
43617When do you mean to come and pass a month at Lewes?
43617When do you mean to leave off talking nonsense?
43617When we know each other better?
43617When you come and speak to me of what is right and virtuous shall I not love virtue for your sake? 43617 When you first beheld the deceased did you, from your own observation, conceive him to be in a dying state?"
43617When, how, where?
43617When,he wrote,"beautiful Harriette, will you admit me into your house?
43617When?
43617Where are you going then?
43617Where are you going to?
43617Where are you staying?
43617Where are your gloves?
43617Where did he direct his coachman to drive to?
43617Where did you see him?
43617Where do you expect to go to, Harriette?
43617Where do you mean?
43617Where is Craven?
43617Where is Livius?
43617Where is there a village?
43617Where on earth are you taking us to?
43617Where shall I see you, then?
43617Where shall I take you to?
43617Where the devil is Argyle? 43617 Where''s Townsend, or any of the constables?"
43617Where''s that, in Gods name?
43617Where''s the treaty of peace?
43617Where? 43617 Which of these questions do you desire to have answered first, Wellington?"
43617Which of us two must leave the room?
43617Who are the Smiths?
43617Who are your men?
43617Who can they be?
43617Who can you be?
43617Who could steal your watch, think you?
43617Who do you think would have entrusted me with their secrets fifteen years ago? 43617 Who has laid such an appalling embargo on you?"
43617Who is he?
43617Who is he?
43617Who is it pray?
43617Who is she to marry, pray?
43617Who is she?
43617Who is that?
43617Who is to ride that one which is without a saddle?
43617Who is your friend?
43617Who on earth could dislike you? 43617 Who on earth,"said Luttrell, with his usual earnestness--"who on earth would think of Lady Castlereagh when they might be here?"
43617Who shall console us for acute bodily anguish?
43617Who the devil are you, sir?
43617Who then, in this land of plenty,said I,"is so very hard up?"
43617Who waits?
43617Who will recommend you, pray, madam?
43617Who would have thought it?
43617Who would write for the stage?
43617Who?
43617Whom are you bowing to?
43617Whom did you ride with to- day, Fanny?
43617Whom do you include in your all?
43617Whom do you think I met at Cowes? 43617 Why be a slave to any unamiable woman?"
43617Why can not we take these things as the Frenchwomen do? 43617 Why could not you love me?
43617Why defend those nasty fellows then?
43617Why did she run away from you?
43617Why do n''t William stay with the girls?
43617Why do n''t she come?
43617Why do n''t you make your servants deny you?
43617Why do n''t you ride and tye regularly with your two muttons,said I,"when you want to be economical?
43617Why do not you article yourself then to a baker of it,I observed,"and so pay some of your debts?"
43617Why do not you bring his name?
43617Why do not you play harlequin?
43617Why do not you point out the man to us?
43617Why do you not make the men more civil?
43617Why is this unusual pressure of company?
43617Why make yourself out worse than you are?
43617Why not act with common sense?
43617Why not let Worcester fight his own battles?
43617Why not make up our minds that we know nothing, and then, while we quietly follow the dictates of our own consciences, hope the best?
43617Why not show yourself to the admiring world, after the trouble of making yourself so very fine?
43617Why not with the right?
43617Why not, at least, have carried on the thing quietly?
43617Why not? 43617 Why not?"
43617Why not?
43617Why not?
43617Why not?
43617Why say such cruel unfeeling things to me? 43617 Why should I fret about this senseless, heartless being?"
43617Why should poor Parker marry a woman with a ready- made family?
43617Why so?
43617Why so?
43617Why the devil did not your servant tell me that all these people were here?
43617Why the devil do n''t you manage better?
43617Why then, was he so awfully dumb?
43617Why vulgar?
43617Why will you agitate yourself for nothing?
43617Why, General--, but you will be secret?
43617Why, Meyler, will you force me from you, if you really have the smallest attachment for me?
43617Why, did not everybody think so?
43617Why, do you not know that Sydenham and I are become man and wife? 43617 Why, pray?"
43617Why, the other day you wrote to ask a lady of rank if you might visit her,_ à cheval?_ What does that mean pray?
43617Why, the other day you wrote to ask a lady of rank if you might visit her,_ à cheval?_ What does that mean pray?
43617Why, what can you have done to the poor child?
43617Why, what is the matter with it, Sir John? 43617 Why, you are not going to trust yourself in that rake''s carriage alone?"
43617Why,said Brummell to several of these half- and- half sort of gentry,"have not I called you Dick, Tom, and John, you rogues?
43617Why-- why, in short,continued Frederick--"in short, shall I drive you down to Greenwich to dinner?"
43617Why-- why-- the fact is, it would seem----"What would it seem?
43617Why? 43617 Will once do?"
43617Will you be offended if I venture to introduce a young lady to you?
43617Will you come in? 43617 Will you like to step up and see her?"
43617Will you oblige me by undertaking it, madam?
43617Will you present me?
43617Will you promise?
43617Will you ride, Harriette?
43617Will your Grace shake hands with me?
43617With all my heart; but how does Lady Fanny Ponsonby pass her time?
43617With whom, pray?
43617Would you believe it? 43617 Would you like Richmond?"
43617Would you like to be acquainted with him?
43617Would you like to dance?
43617Would you regret it?
43617You admire Lord Ponsonby then?
43617You allude to the gentleman I was riding with in the park?
43617You are come to scold me for sending my old nurse to console the general?
43617You are not serious?
43617You do n''t say so?
43617You do n''t say so?
43617You do n''t say so?
43617You do n''t seriously and really mean to say you are going to travel that figure, and in the broad face of day too?
43617You do not mistake this for summer, do you? 43617 You here alone?"
43617You know I have a very warm and feeling heart, and taste enough to admire and like you; but why is this to be our last meeting?
43617You must go now,I added;"I never break my word, and Leinster will be here directly; but, when he goes to Spain,----""Does he go?"
43617You promise not to be offended?
43617You refuse then?
43617You return to Oxford to- night, I believe?
43617You sup with Amy, I hope?
43617You surely must be in love with his large property?
43617You will be surprised to see me here, general?
43617You will forward any letters that may arrive from the Earl of Fife?
43617You will not accompany me to Scotland then?
43617You wo n''t tell me your name then?
43617You wo nt?
43617Your Grace still believes me desirous of the honour I might obtain by forcing myself on you as your despised relative?
43617Your intrigues then are so frequent, that you forget with whom they occur it should seem?
43617Your lordship, if I remember, was formerly in the Guards, I think? 43617 Yourself, perhaps?"
43617_ Au reste,_ my dear Worcester, what is there in a ceremony and what do I care for a title? 43617 _ D''où venez vous?_"She informed me that she had been living with Lady Caroline Lamb.
43617_ En attendant_, will you walk again with me to- morrow?
43617_ En voilà assez,_said I,"_ de votre belle sauvage._ Perhaps you will show him to me some day, not on Ludgate Hill, but at the Opera?"
43617_ Est- il possible?_ Did nothing more happen?
43617_ Est- il possible?_ Did nothing more happen?
43617_ Et puis?_said Fanny.
43617_ Et vous, Madame?_said George Lamb.
43617_ Mais, ne sais- tu pas que je l''ai perdu?_I inquired.
43617_ Plait- t''il?_said Carlo, raising his large languid eyes to George''s face from the pencil he was cutting.
43617_ Quelle bizarre idée vous passe par la tête?_said I.
43617_ Veux- tu jouer avec le petit Anglais, mon enfant?_inquired Rosabella.
43617''Have you any recommendations?''
43617''What is the matter my poor fellow?''
43617''What vision, pray?''
43617''Who can the cruel fair one be?''
43617''Why, where are you going?''
43617''Why?''
43617''tis love,''tis love,''tis love._""Livius,"then said George Lamb,"I want to ask you whether you have places to spare for your night?"
43617A hatred of idleness, Mr. Zimmerman, is a love of industry; but how is this love and this hatred to be acquired?
43617After a long pause, he suddenly, and with abruptness, said,"Who makes your shoes?"
43617And all these ere beautiful nice, plump, dear lasses about?
43617And if they have, why do you not address them with firm, manly civility, to request an explanation or apology?"
43617And my blue stockings?
43617And pray, madam, the reader may ask; how came you to be thus early acquainted with George Brummell''s inmost soul?
43617And sell the mighty share of our large honours, For so much trash, as may be grasped thus?
43617And was I not the object of his first, his most ardent wishes, on his arrival from Spain?
43617And was not that worth all the money to you?
43617And what catchpenny ballad writer could not write a parody on them as you have done?
43617And you too have forgotten me,_ n''est ce pas?_ If you have not, I hope you will tell me so by return of post.
43617And, being this, as well as young and beautiful, why condescend to resent our sins against you?
43617And, if I would, would you not yourself scruple, as a married man, to be the cause of misery to a poor young creature?"
43617Answer:"Will ten o''clock this evening suit you?
43617Any of them married yet?
43617Any of them thinking of it, hey?"
43617Are there no writing- masters at Ravenna?
43617Are you a Frenchwoman?"
43617Are you stage- struck as usual, or struck mad by mere accident?"
43617At a word then, shall I try the experiment?"
43617Besides, why do n''t my old friends keep me among them?
43617But are there not also fastidious, angry, querulential readers?
43617But then what is death?
43617But what chance can you have?
43617But what is an extravagant fellow to do, with high rank and little or no money?
43617But what of that?
43617By the bye,"inquired his lordship,"how is this?
43617CHAPTER XXIII Now what am I next to amuse my readers with?
43617Can little Tommy do no more?
43617Can not you write straight at least?
43617Can one conceive anything so absurd?"
43617Can you look quite serious and declare to him you never heard of such a person?"
43617Colonel Berkeley looked at his lordship in utter astonishment, exclaiming,"My good fellow, what the devil is the matter?"
43617Cough?
43617Could I be mistaken?
43617Could I respect the husband who would deceive his parents?
43617Could I wonder at it?
43617Could he not, at least, have declined the honour I wanted to confer on him, civilly?
43617Could you have imagined she would ever have asked me for money?"
43617Crazy Jane?"
43617Dear Lorne, forgive me?"
43617Did he ever look at me?
43617Did he not kneel?
43617Did you get a letter from our dear mother yesterday?
43617Dites, donc, mon cher, en parlant du bas_, who do you make love to now?
43617Do n''t you know vat a tower is?''
43617Do n''t you know you are on your oath?
43617Do n''t you recollect the other night, besides calling you a fool, he accused you of being an old clothesman?"
43617Do not I require fortitude?"
43617Do not you know that you are in the lobby?"
43617Do not you see those two men at the corner of the street are tipsy?
43617Do you know man, that you are by no means an ugly fellow?"
43617Do you know that Brummell is cut amongst us, and who do you think sets the fashions there now?"
43617Do you know,"continued Fanny,"I, who used to abhor solitude even for a single morning, am now become very fond of it?
43617Do you recollect I told you so?
43617Do you remember what I said to you at our last meeting, and will you do me the justice to believe I did not deceive you?
43617Do you still ask me to break my oath?"
43617Do you think there are any ghosts in this part of the world?"
43617Dobbins?"
43617Elliston now seated himself by my side, and said, in a whisper,"Do n''t you want tea?"
43617Have I ever wished to disobey you?
43617Have you a mind to give Lorne an agreeable surprise?"
43617Have you any objection to tell me candidly whether they are really your originals?"
43617Have you made any money by it?"
43617Hay?
43617Hay?
43617Hay?
43617Hay?
43617He bowed first, then said:"How do you do?"
43617He had also professed to love Julia once, and how had he requited her?
43617He told me that I was going on in a very bad way, and asked me whither I expected to go?
43617Her first question was''Is your man handsome?''
43617His lordship now asked me, in a voice trembling more with agitation than age, or rage, what I meant?
43617How came those stinking butchers''candles in your room?"
43617How could I address myself to such a booby?
43617How could I be so deficient in good taste?
43617How could I be so ridiculous and negligent?
43617How could we help fancying it was the right way out?
43617How do you do, pray?"
43617How do you do?"
43617How do you do?"
43617How do you know that it is severe?"
43617How do you think I manage it at Melton?"
43617How does Lord Berwick go on?"
43617How far are you going?"
43617How happened that?"
43617How happens this?
43617How indeed could I do otherwise, when the Honourable Frederick Lamb was my constant visitor, and talked to me of nothing else?
43617How long have you been in Paris?
43617How much money do you want?"
43617How then can I remain constant to your inconstant charms?
43617How voud it be in possibility to flock such fine fellow as dat?
43617I asked a friend of Lord Ponsonby one day why he did not adore his beautiful wife?
43617I asked how long he had been married?
43617I asked,"and why did he not approach me?"
43617I asked,"has Berkeley been induced, by fear, to render me that justice, which he has denied to my earnest entreaty?"
43617I asked;"who on earth ever tried you that way?"
43617I ca n''t say as you treat me exactly like a lady, and-- now do n''t laugh-- oh, you sly, pretty rogue!--Hay?
43617I called Lord Hertford aside, and addressed him:"Tell me, I earnestly implore you, most candidly and truly, do you think Fanny will recover?"
43617I exclaimed,"is this what you Opposition gentlemen call spirit, growling at a man between your teeth for an imagined insult?
43617I had fancied----""What?"
43617I hope you believe that I felt very much shocked that you should have waited in my hall?
43617I inquired whether my situation, previous to my having been under the protection of Lord Worcester, made any difference?
43617I knew you were here, and how could I fail to discover you?
43617I meant to ask what I should try to amuse them with?
43617I often wished to be more interesting, and less remarkable;_ mais quoi faire?_"I can not conceive why these men stare at you in this manner?"
43617I often wished to be more interesting, and less remarkable;_ mais quoi faire?_"I can not conceive why these men stare at you in this manner?"
43617I then asked if he married her for love or money?
43617I want you to meet me to- morrow morning in Hyde Park at six; and, do you hear?
43617I was already beginning to prefer his lordship, and was it to be wondered at, all the circumstances considered?
43617I was angry and disgusted with him for speaking of you in this manner, and I asked him if he did not think you had used me very ill?"
43617I will not call it love or affection, else why does he with his twenty thousand a year suffer her to be so shockingly distressed?
43617I wonder, thought I, what sort of a nightcap the Prince of Wales wears?
43617I----""Did I ever tell you I was in love with you?"
43617If I draw you up two more, now, will you really give me your word they shall be paid?"
43617If Vice is a monster, of such hideous mien, That, to be hated, needs but to be seen, when has vice ever been so unsparingly exposed?
43617If the mere climate made a Venetian of Shylock, why does Shakespeare point at him as an usurer?
43617In about another week, I wrote to him again as follows:"Why do n''t you come, Mountebank?
43617In the meantime will you trust yourself to come and dine with me to- day?"
43617In the meantime will you write to me?
43617Is it not absurd to suppose that a woman, who was not quite a fool, could believe in such ridiculous, heartless nonsense?
43617Is it not very decently covered by this smart, coloured handkerchief?"
43617Is it really you?
43617Is our dress a pit- dress or a gallery- dress ma''am?"
43617Is that a proper sight to attract a young''s lady''s attention?"
43617Is that fair, or rather are not you a terrible coxcomb, master Argyle?
43617It was as follows;"I have long been very desirous to make your acquaintance: will you let me?
43617Julia asked him if he really meant to say he had not forgotten you all this time?
43617Lambton?"
43617Let us inquire what my sister Fanny is doing?
43617Lorne looked, not sulky, nor cross, as Fred Lamb would have done; but smiled beautifully, and said:"At three, then, may I go to you?"
43617Luttrell inquired,"that you are eternally driving up that long stupid Bois de Boulogne?"
43617Might he not be watching his dog?
43617Mildmay inquired,"and will you give me a kiss?
43617Miss Harriette, is it really you?"
43617Mr. Shuffle, how do you do?
43617Must I not strive to live by my wits?
43617My inquiry,"_ Si Monsieur Brummell était visible_?"
43617Napier?"
43617Now about those here bills?
43617Now what would this excellent author say to Mr. Jack Ketch''s hand being laid on one, and that not quite in the way of kindness either?
43617Of course the Beauforts have received news from Lord Worcester long ago?
43617Of course, you all know_ The Cock_ at Sutton?
43617Once for all madam, will you go to Vauxhall on Monday night?
43617Only tell me what I can do for you and Leinster and my sister Fanny?
43617Or was he but a mere upstart man, of extraordinary genius, without strength of mind to know what he would be at?
43617Or, do you mean to forget me?
43617Perhaps the reader will allow me to cut the subject where it stands?
43617Ponsonby remarked,"What is odd?"
43617Pray Miss, how is your time spent?"
43617Pray where is she?"
43617Quoi faire?_ and how can one write pathetically on such trifling subjects?
43617Quoi faire?_ and how can one write pathetically on such trifling subjects?
43617Readers with full stomachs, who complain of being surfeited and overloaded with the story- telling trash of our circulating libraries?
43617Readers, can you conceive anything half so monstrous, half so ruinous to black- pudding men, so destructive to the rising generation?
43617Shall I be netting a purse, or will it have a better effect to put on my gloves and be doing nothing?"
43617Shall I continue to suffer thus for what his footmen, tradesmen and valet, enjoy freely every day?
43617Shall I get you a glass of water?"
43617Shall you, my dear?"
43617Smith?''
43617Something like the man, who boasted of having been addressed by the Emperor Bonaparte:"What did he say to you?"
43617Stanhope?"
43617Suppose you show us your half- crown?"
43617The Duke''s answer was brought to me by his groom, as soon as he had received my letter; it ran thus:"Are you really serious?
43617The scene was indeed disgraceful to humanity and I was very much affected by it; but how could I help it?
43617Then I went on to wonder whether the Prince of Wales would think me as beautiful as Frederick Lamb did?
43617Then you really could not return my passion?"
43617There, do n''t speak, can you swallow a saline draught?
43617Therefore,"continued Tom Sheridan, smiling,"you''ll make it up with Lorne, wo n''t you?"
43617Think you that you felt them to- night for the very first time in your life?"
43617This was his answer,--"If you are but half as lovely as you think yourself, you must be well worth knowing; but how is that to be managed?
43617To my inquiry,"What was the matter?"
43617To this Tommy we may apply the epigram written on another Tommy: What can little Tommy do?
43617Tu ne sera pas si cruelle?_"Argyle is the best Frenchman I have met with in England, and poor Tom Sheridan was the second best.
43617Vare is de most fine pictures?
43617Vot do dey show to me fore all dis money?...
43617Vot for should any man vont fore to see great many muskets, all put straight togeter fore to do noting?
43617Was he really so superior, and would he crush the poor worms which dared not aspire to his perfections?
43617Was it never a little more decent?
43617Was it one of my weaknesses you wanted to humour, by appearing to guess me something out of the common way?"
43617We were now interrupted by the Prince Esterhazy, who entered all over mud, saying,"_ Comment ça va?_"without taking off his hat.
43617Were you sorry I left you?
43617What am I?
43617What antics might you be up to, hey?
43617What are you afraid of?
43617What character in the name of wonder did Amy choose?
43617What could I ever be to him?
43617What could I not have been, what could I not have undertaken for the friend, the companion, the husband of my choice?
43617What could the easy tempered Leinster do less than declare his happiness to see him?
43617What do you think of my cap?
43617What does Argyle say to all this?"
43617What else could it mean?"
43617What great crime would there be if your little piece happened not to be to their taste?"
43617What happiness, think you, could we enjoy, at the expense of making your parents miserable?
43617What has become of Lord Ponsonby?"
43617What has he done?
43617What have I done so very wicked, that I may not ever again behold him?
43617What is an author, or anybody else the better for having a parcel of bad debts on his ledger?
43617What is to be done?
43617What knowledge will be likely to make me most agreeable to him?
43617What makes you think so?"
43617What matters that?
43617What may be your serious thoughts of it?"
43617What sort of an old woman do you allude to?"
43617What steadiness could I expect from such an ass as Worcester?
43617What the devil can you possibly have to say against my son Fred?"
43617What think you of our getting it up the same evening?"
43617What trash, my dear Wellington?
43617What was I, that Lord Ponsonby should think about me?
43617What was anything on earth to love?
43617What was to be done?
43617What was to be done?
43617What was to be done?
43617What was to be done?
43617What was to be done?
43617What were parents, what were friends to her?
43617What would ladies be at?
43617What''s upon your word to do with it?
43617What, in the name of wonder can have brought you to Cowes?''
43617What-- was-- your-- own-- opinion, as to the man''s state of health?"
43617When I have done this, I do not think you will swear at me, or frighten me, or ill- use me, will you?"
43617When does Colonel Parker set off?"
43617When may I come?
43617Where can one get a sight of Meyler?"
43617Where do you live?
43617Where is the author who can be indifferent to the genuine unhackneyed praise bestowed on his own composition?
43617Wherefore should one ask them,"Can you dress hair?"
43617While the rain was trickling down his nose, his voice, trembling with rage and impatience, cried out,"You old idiot, do you know me now?"
43617Who and what are you, who appear to me a being too bright and too severe to dwell among us?"
43617Who calls?"
43617Who knows what may turn up?"
43617Who on earth could steal your watch?"
43617Who the d--- l dines at six?
43617Who the devil was that old woman last Friday?"
43617Who would a thort of our meeting you, in the coach?"
43617Who would have thought to find you here?
43617Who would not cut the very best swaggering Stanhope for a Molyneux?"
43617Why am I to be a slave to Charles Somerset?
43617Why am I to sleep alone?''
43617Why be afraid of that great black- eyed sister of mine, as if she were of so much consequence?"
43617Why blame one for what really can not be helped?"
43617Why did not you come upstairs?"
43617Why did you affect not to know me?
43617Why did you leave that regiment?"
43617Why did you make believe to be English?"
43617Why do n''t you take to intriguing with women of fashion?
43617Why do not you go to her to inquire?"
43617Why do not you make him pay your debts?
43617Why growl or be sulky if nobody has offered you any insult?
43617Why is he not an Adonis?"
43617Why not have told me at once that you did not mean to receive me?"
43617Why should I?"
43617Why so obstinately refuse my visits?
43617Will Haught, who was in a terrible bustle on this occasion, asked,"Where is Miss Wilson to wait during parade, my lord?"
43617Will it ever be believed?
43617Will it not occur to them that accident has had much to do with their being Christians, or Jews, or Turks?
43617Will that suit you?"
43617Will you be so good, Miss, as to mention that I wants to show her how my great coat sets behind?"
43617Will you come down with me in a hackney coach as far as the House?"
43617Will you present me to her?
43617Will you procure us some safe conveyance?
43617Wo n''t you take a glass of wine?"
43617Worcester called him a d----d liar, and throwing his card at him, at the same time, asked him who he was, and where he came from?
43617Would not you have laughed at such poetical stuff?"
43617Would she be so vulgar?"
43617Would you believe, reader, this eloquent epistle obtained me no answer during three long days?
43617Yet what editor ever took to task a lady whose friends were on the spot?
43617Yet who was it to affect?
43617You bought that satin of me I think?
43617You used my name, of course, at the watch- house?"
43617You will not mind running to South Audley- street for a pound of black pudding?
43617You would not like a horsepond:_ n''est- ce pas?_""Keep them to it, keep up the war between them; it is so amusing.
43617You''ll increase your fever, my charming young lady; and then what will your friend Fred Bentinck say?
43617You''ll stay then with me?"
43617Young Edward Fitzgerald, who is a cousin of the Duke of Leinster, on one occasion galloped after us, and addressed Worcester:"What do you think?
43617_ Alors je pend la tête!_ Is it thus he would immortalise me?
43617_ N''est- ce pas?_ The man who lays his hand on a woman, save in the way of kindness, is a monster, whom it were gross flattery to call coward.
43617_ Nous lui demandâmes si elle faisait, encore, lit à part?__ Elle répondit que non._"And what sort of a man is Lord Berwick?"
43617_ Nous lui demandâmes si elle faisait, encore, lit à part?__ Elle répondit que non._"And what sort of a man is Lord Berwick?"
43617_ Qu''en pensez vous?_"H.W."
43617_ Qu''en pensez- vous actuellement?_""Pray,"said Meyler, trembling from head to foot,"put me out of suspense."
43617_ Que voulez- vous?_ But I wish to explain the Duke of Beaufort''s conduct, certainly."
43617_ Que voulez- vous?_ It is the nature of the animal.
43617a pig- tail?
43617and did not the proprietor of this same coach promise me the first vacant sate?"
43617and is it under it you''d have me wear it?"
43617and may it not be her nature to intrigue with Fred Beauclerc?
43617and that I have changed my name and my home for his?"
43617and then your rage for the stage, what''s become of that?
43617and why is that frightful cap stuck up before you?"
43617answered Fanny,"shall I ring for your maid?
43617asked Shuffle,"and what business have you to crack jokes?"
43617bawled out George Lamb,"why the deuce do n''t you come and finish your supper?
43617beating in their hearts, could think of Frederick Lamb?
43617burst forth the exasperated lady;"are females always to be imposed upon in this manner?"
43617business, do n''t you, miss?"
43617could he have left me?
43617d''où viens tu?_"but without answering him or perhaps understanding what he said.
43617dear, Miss Wilson, what do you mean?"
43617do you think that I have nothing better to do than to make speeches to please ladies?"
43617ejaculated I;"and what can his lordship do better than attend so sweet a creature?
43617for what, pray?"
43617hay?
43617hey?
43617how came you alone this miserable night?"
43617how comed you then dear, to let go o''this and never miss it?
43617how could you ever degrade yourself thus?
43617how do you do?"
43617inquired Elliston,"and completing it in two days?"
43617inquired your sister Amy?
43617or what right would any duke have to cut a private gentleman?
43617or would you have had me force myself into a family which despised me?"
43617roared out Elliston;"why is the road blocked up in this manner?"
43617said Berkeley, laughing heartily,"did he really give you eggs and bacon for dinner?"
43617said I, looking at him with much curiosity,"and why do you lay such a stress on trifles light as air?"
43617said I, out of all patience at his stupidity;"what come you here for, duke?"
43617said I,"after all the promises you have made to become less righteous?"
43617said I,"what am I to say to him this time?"
43617said I,"what is to be done?
43617said I,"where did he spring from?"
43617said I,''Fitz, you are not going to wait?''
43617said Sir William, grasping my arm with both his hands,"you do not say so?
43617said Smith, much offended;"but, good Lord, who have we got here?
43617said Wellington, very seriously,"what paper do you read?"
43617said he,"and what can I do for you?"
43617said he,"what detains your man?
43617said the Duc de Guiche;"I wish I knew whether he would like to sell it and what he would ask for it?"
43617said the duke, returning a few steps after we had taken leave:--"_Mais tu viendras, mon ange?
43617said the son, as soon as he had looked it over,"think of it, sir?"
43617said the stranger, in evident surprise,"and why, if you dislike me, were you so very desirous to speak to me?"
43617shall I order candles?"
43617since, without one, who could follow the stranger?
43617tant pour les Misses New Times, que pour moi!_"But who on earth are the Miss New Times''s?
43617then,"exclaimed Amy,"you admit the master is dirty?"
43617they are greater conquerors than ever Wellington shall be; but, to be serious, I understood you came here to try to make yourself agreeable?"
43617thought I, half wild with the delightful idea,"and shall we not meet again?
43617uttered Wellington,"where is Lorne?"
43617what are you doing?"
43617what do you hint at?
43617what do you mean by wicked?"
43617what do you mean?
43617what do you say?
43617what do you think?
43617what do you want?"
43617what have you been about?"
43617what shall we do?"
43617what was I, that Ponsonby should devote his precious life to me?
43617what''s to be done?"
43617where is it to be?"
43617where''s His Grace?
43617where''s the Duke of Leinster?''"
43617where?"
43617who could travel with Ward?
43617who was that elegant- looking man with you?"
43617why do nt you do your duty?''"
43617wo n''t you have any more?"
43617would not you like to go to Margate?"
43617you a lord?
43617you do n''t say so?
43617you do not say so?"
43617you ere a bachelor too, and ask vat then?
43617you will take your draught to- night?"
