13666Why is he coming, and what will he see?
23344Any more reasons to ask for?
23344Have you no money at all, Papa?
23344I suppose you know the reason,_ now_, why my god- Daughter here,kissing the Princess again,"did not apply to the fish- bone sooner?"
23344I thought you had lost it?
23344I thought you had lost it?
23344I thought you had lost it?
23344Is that all?
23344Is there no way left of getting any, Papa?
23344King Watkins the First, I believe?
23344Or forgotten it?
23344Or forgotten it?
23344Or forgotten it?
23344Papa, if I am not mistaken, of the beautiful Princess Alicia?
23344Papa,said she,"when we have tried very hard, and tried all ways, we must have done our very very best?"

23344What old lady?
23344Where is the magic fish- bone, Alicia?
23344Where is the magic fish- bone?
23344_ Will_ you be good, sir?
23344But on the morning when the Queen fainted away, where was the magic fish- bone?
23344It instantly flashed upon the King that she must be a Fairy, or how could she know that?
23344The King was beginning,"Might I ask the reason--?"
23344The Princess Alicia embraced her, and then Grandmarina turned to the King, and said rather sharply:--"Are you good?"
23344[ Illustration:"Alicia, my dear... how do you do?"]
23344[ Illustration:"What is the matter, Papa?"]
27754Ah,cried Adrian,"how can I hesitate?
27754And what, my sweet young lady,addressing Amaranthé,"can beauty do for you?
27754How can that be?
27754Rash boy,answered Felicia,"how can you pretend to judge of what your feelings and conduct will be in a situation so wholly new to you?
27754We are, indeed, bereaved of every thing else, and shall we forsake each other? 27754 After some hesitation, she, trembling as she spoke, said,Pray, cousin, have you lately looked at your hyacinth?"
27754And did either of you practise the good precepts she gave you with them?
27754And which of these, my gentle Claribel,( turning to her,) shall I present to you?"
27754Are you willing to trust yourselves with me?"
27754Did you not obstinately persist in choosing the gifts she warned you against?
27754Do not you remember my children, that I once nearly betrayed the secret of her existence to you?
27754How fondly you once loved me-- and is it at an end?
27754If they had so much cause to dread the censure of Felicia, what had they to hope from the severe Benigna?
27754Is it possible, said he, there can be so many unfortunate creatures in want?
27754Pure and genuine feelings of uncorrupted nature, why are ye ever subdued?
27754Remember, destitute orphans as we are, we have nothing left in this world but each other, and if we are not united, what is to become of us?"
27754Say, were you very happy in the possession of your lily?"
27754Were the smiles and attention that had so captivated him to be equally shared by them?
27754What evil can attend being handsome?
27754Will you love me no more?"
27754answered Benigna, with a frown,"what right have you or your sister to call Felicia treacherous?
27754had she no more regard for him than for any of these senseless coxcombs?
33051What have you there hanging at your belt?"
20366Can we not plant more and more until it spreads across the world in spite of all neglect?
20366How can I show my gratitude?
20366How can I teach my little son to please his people better than his father did?
20366How come these pictures here?
20366How shall I get such a mirror?
20366Is it a holiday?
20366Is that all?
20366What can I do to make you glad?
20366What can I do?
20366What can we do? 20366 What do you know?"
20366What is it?
20366What should I do?
20366Where is she? 20366 Who is Wonderwings?"
20366Why is everybody getting up so early?
20366You come to work?
20366How can I dance and sing?"
20366How can I get such a mirror for my son?"
20366How now shall I get a magic mirror for my son?"
20366How then can you?"
20366Is there no way to make war cease?
20366Strange rustlings sounded round the rocks, strange forms loomed close beside her, strange voices asked her:"What are you?
20366Tell me so that I may teach my young son how to hold his throne?"
20366What can I do?"
20366What can we do?"
20366What is the matter?"
20366What, then, can fairies do?
20366Why come you to our haunts?"
20366Why did I not know of her before?
23735But where is it?
23735Dear me, dear me, what shall I do?
23735Did you see how it shone, grandmother? 23735 Do you not remember the fairy dell and the little fay to whom you gave a feather for his cap?"
23735Good neighbors,he cried,"why travel you so fast?
23735Is this not my little playmate, Pease- Blossom, who likes so well to ride on the grasses and rock in the flowers?
23735Shall we start to town as soon as the new day comes?
23735What can this be?
23735What is the matter?
23735What is the matter?
23735What is the matter?
23735What is the matter?
23735What should I like for a Christmas present?
23735Who comes here?
23735Why have you not brought it with you? 23735 And did you hear how the little bells rang?
23735As they went they talked of the lions in the way and the one said to the other:"Think you it is true, or but an idle tale?"
23735But who can tell?
23735Do you not know a fairy when you see one?"
23735Have we not the king''s own word for it?"
23735He sat down on the seashore and cried-- the tears rolled down his cheeks I do assure you-- for he said to himself:"Who can do a task like this?
23735Is a house afire or a friend ill; or does a feast wait till you come?
23735It is easy to get rosemary then, is it not?"
23735No one could aid him, and he was ready to drop from weariness and sorrow when the moon came over the hill and called:"Whither away, Pease- Blossom?
23735THE QUEST FOR THE NIGHTINGALE[6] Oh, who would go to fairyland?
23735Then said the moon:"Many a nightingale there is in the wide world, both free and caged, and how may I know yours from any other?
23735What is that?"
23735Whither away?"
23735Who will put us into the nest again?"
23735Would n''t you?"
26018Can you tell me which way that doublet went?
26018Did you never go there?
26018Did you never see a man coming down from a back window before?
26018Fair lady,said Civil,"tell me what means this quietness, and where are all the merry company?"
26018Good gentlemen,said the cuckoo,"what season is this?"
26018How is that?
26018I hope you will drink that toast, and may we never have a worse fire on Christmas-- but what is that?
26018Say you so?
26018What is the matter, friend?
26018What is the news in your part of the forest?
26018What is the news in your part of the forest?
26018What is the news in your part of the forest?
26018Where did you get a grandmother?
26018Where is the good in it?
26018Who are you,she said,"that sit so late beside my well?"
26018But he rubbed his eyes, gazed up at his brother and said:"Spare, is that really you?
26018Childe Charity slept soundly, but every morning the servants would say to her:"What great light and fine talking was that in your back garret?"
26018How could one eat barley bread on the way to a palace?
26018How did you like the Court, and have you made your fortune?"
26018How was he to get home to his mother?
26018Sometimes the old woman said:"Child, why do n''t you make this bed softer?
26018Spare said to his brother:"Shall we sit here cold on Christmas Day while the great root lies yonder?

26018What business has a common little girl with anything so amusing?"

26018What will your Highness please that we do next?"
26018What would they say to our golden ones?
26018Whence come you so late?
26018and what would the old dame think when the dark night came without bringing him home?
26018and why are your blankets so thin?"
26018cried the mother,"what have you done to- day to help our living?"
18872''Ah,''he cried,''what is this, and what are you, that the mere touch of you burns my finger?''
18872''But where else can I go to?''
18872''Do you think we are going to believe that?''
18872''Does she live?''
18872''Here?
18872''Here?''
18872''How is this,''he said to the first man he met,''that you have corn here in the middle of winter?''
18872''Is there any place left for me?''
18872''O Rose,''he said,''O sweet Rose, what end is there of thy sweetness?
18872''O my moonbeam, my miracle,''whispered Noodle,''wilt thou not come to the one that feeds thee?''
18872''O my moonbeam,''he thought,''is it here I shall find you at last?''
18872''Tell me, said Noodle,''who is this sleeper who stands enchanted and rooted like a flower to earth?
18872''What is the bargain?''

18872''What is your master?''
18872''What, you here too, Tulip?''
18872''Whatever have you there?''
18872''Where and what is it?''
18872''Where is the king''s son, then?''
18872''Where shall I go?''
18872''Where shall I go?''
18872''You here too, Tulip?''
18872Again he asked, with his eyes intent upon the blue wrimpling of the water in the well''s depth,''What is the bargain?''
18872And who are you, and these others who work and cry at cross purposes?''
18872Art thou master of all the other things as well?''
18872Do you think I could do it now?''
18872Go your ways in peace; but first tell me, who are you?''
18872Hast thou forgotten whose hand feeds thee, whose corn it is thou lovest, whose heart''s care also cherishes thee?''
18872How long have you been here?''
18872Now, here we have the Galloping Plough with no man who can guide it, and what aid can it be?
18872Of what use is it to break one, if the other enchantments can not be broken?''
18872Oh, how?
18872Only, why do you always bring them round again to that silly lover''s ending?''
18872She is not dead; when will she wake?
18872Tell me of the Burning Rose and the Camphor- Worm; what and where are they?
18872The king''s son, stumbling along through the forest under the bare boughs, thought,''Even here where shall I hide?
18872Then the king''s son stopped and said,''Little brother, do you so much wish to be king?''
18872They offered him the sea- life: why should he be drowned and die?
18872They replied,''We are the Fire- eaters: far from our own land, and strangers, you have done us this service; what, now, can we do to serve you?''
18872asked Noodle;''is she asleep?
18872inquired Noodle,''and in what bondage does he bind man?''
22184But tell me some more about your work?
22184But the question is, to whom do I pay it?
22184Can you direct me as to the best way out of this pond?
22184Do_ you_ do any work?
22184Have you ever seen a Moon Maiden?
22184Is it a bar- gain?
22184Is that some dead white bird lying yonder?
22184Is that you, Jack?
22184May I not come and serve you, too?
22184Now I wonder what you two were talking about so nicely when I came in?
22184Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, what did you there?
22184Spoon, my love,began the Dish once more,"shall we ask the Cat and Fiddle to sing and play for us, while we dance?"
22184The water?
22184What have you done?
22184What is that cat doing here?
22184What is your will, your Majesty?
22184What is your will, your Majesty?
22184What''s that you said?
22184Where are you going?
22184Where did you get it from?
22184Who told you all that rubbish about Mother Goose? 22184 Will it_ never_ be a garden?"
22184Wo n''t you come in?
22184Would it be asking too much for you to tell us the story too?
22184Would you like that too, my pretty dear?
22184Yes, have you brought us any water?
22184MARY, MARY, QUITE CONTRARY"_ Such as the gardener is-- so is the garden_"Mary, Mary, quite contrary, How does your garden grow?
22184PUSSY CAT, PUSSY CAT"_ The man who loses his opportunity loses himself_""Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, where have you been?"
22184Then the gentle voice said:"Have you paid your fine, oh, bold stranger?"
22184To fair maids blossoming and curtseying in the flower- beds, fair maids so beautiful that the Knight would fain have stopped with them all day?
22184To fountains plashing and showing a thousand different colours?
22184To fruit of gold and silver hanging from the branches of the fruit trees, and to birds of every plumage singing the sweetest songs imaginable?
22184To hedges of every flowering shrub imaginable?
22184To lillies trickling oozy scent into gold bowls laid ready to receive it?
22184To lofty trees whose leaves whispered soft invitations to the passers- by to come and sleep beneath their soothing shade?
22184To roses flowering everywhere?
22184To whole bowers of honeysuckle, and whole beds of lavender?
22184What had happened to the village?
22184What should you say to bells of real silver, glowing and shining?
22184When he saw Sir Hunny Bee he said:"Have you brought her?"
22184When he saw Sir Richard Byrde approaching he called out:"Have you brought her?"
22184Where''s the water gone?"
22184she said, coming out again,"is n''t there any milk?"
18752''"Where is our child, our little one?"
18752''Are you so pleased to hear your foster- father talk of my return to the city?''
18752''Are you willing that he should we d the maiden?''
18752''Do you know, Sir Knight, why your good horse shivers thus?''
18752''Father,''she cried,''where is he, the stranger guest?''
18752''Is not the stranger he who spoke to you in the city, the Master of the fountain?''
18752''Nay, tell me first who are you who ask?''
18752''Was Bertalda asleep,''he wondered,''or did she lie there unconscious, perchance even dead?''
18752''Was it Kühleborn who spoke to you by the fountain?''
18752''Well,''said the fisherman to himself,''I have ever passed through the forest unharmed, why should I fear that evil will befall me here?''
18752''Why did you not hasten to tell me she was found, Sir Knight?''
18752''Why do you laugh, Undine?''
18752''Why do you weep so bitterly?''
18752''Why should we leave this quiet spot to- day?''
18752''Will you not enter, holy Father?''
18752''You are beautiful, Sir Knight,''she said,''but how did you come to this little cottage?
18752After a while she looked at the priest and asked in a timid whisper,''What is this thing which you call a soul, holy Father?''
18752As for your horse, can it have a better stable than this tree- shaded meadow, or more delicious fodder than this green grass?''
18752But was it a vision?
18752Could it all have been but a dream?
18752Could it be a horseman who made haste to escape from some terrible foe?
18752Could these poor working folk be indeed the parents of the maiden who stood before them, so cold, so full of pride?
18752Do you not know a spell against his power?''
18752From whence had she come?
18752Had he found Bertalda at last?
18752Had she not a secret to tell them, which, when they knew it, would make them even happier than before?
18752Had the cottage, the fisherman and his wife been as unreal as the figures that had followed him in the haunted forest?
18752Have you had to pass through the terrible forest ere you could reach us, Sir Knight?''
18752Have you looked for us long before you could find us?
18752Have you not a soul?
18752He answered her crossly,''Why should I have to stay shut up at home?
18752How came so fair a maiden to be dwelling in so lonely a home?
18752It startled all within, for who was there could have crossed the stream that now separated them from the mainland?
18752Know you not that it was I who brought him in safety to the little island to be ready for your wedding- day?''
18752Over the little kitchen a hush fell as the holy man answered,''How can I tell you what this strange thing which we call our soul really is?
18752Was she only a magic child come to mock us in our loneliness, or was she a real, a living child?
18752Was she some lovely elf or sprite who had come but to vex them with her pranks?
18752Was the beautiful maiden only another of the wonderful beings who had bewildered him in the forest?
18752Were the grim figures there, peering at him through the window- pane?
18752Who is the child of whom Undine sings?
18752Who was she?
18752Why should he not marry the beautiful maiden without delay?
18752Why should she stay when the wind whispered to her and the waters brought her messages from the depths of the sea?
18752Would you not rather stay by my side?''
18752why have you sent me hence?''
17208Am I come hither,said the proud, ill- bred girl,"to serve you with water, pray?
17208And how will you do that?
17208Are they my brothers?
17208Does she live far off?
17208God grant it,replied the Queen;"but is there no way to make the eldest, who is so pretty, have any sense?"
17208How can that be?
17208How is it,said he,"that the key of my closet is not among the rest?"
17208I am coming,answered his wife; and then she cried,"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou not see any one coming?"
17208One moment longer, if you please,said his wife; and then she cried out very softly,"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see anybody coming?"
17208One moment longer,said his wife, and then she cried out,"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see nobody coming?"
17208Well, mother?
17208What are you doing there, my good woman?
17208What is it I see there?
17208Who''s there?
17208Who''s there?
17208Will you not come down?
17208Are you dissatisfied with my birth, my wit, my humor, or my manners?"
17208As she was doing this, they said to her:--"Cinderella, would you not be glad to go to the ball?"
17208At this Cinderella, smiling, replied:--"Was she then so very beautiful?
17208Blue Beard, having examined it, said to his wife:--"How comes this stain upon the key?"
17208Can you pretend this, you who have so great a share, and desired so earnestly to have it?
17208Could I not see her?
17208Do you know that this house belongs to a cruel Ogre who eats little children?"
17208He had already taken hold of one of them when his wife said to him:--"What need you do it now?
17208Her godmother, who was a fairy, said to her,"You wish you could go to the ball; is it not so?"
17208How happens this, my child?"
17208I suppose this silver tankard was brought purely for your ladyship, was it?
17208Is it reasonable that persons of wit and sense should be in a worse condition than those who have none?
17208Putting aside my ugliness and deformity, is there anything in me which displeased you?
17208So soon as her mother saw her coming, she cried out:--"Well, daughter?"
17208The fairy then said to Cinderella,"Well, you see here a carriage fit to go to the ball in; are you not pleased with it?"
17208What are they now doing in the forest?
17208Will you not have time enough to- morrow?"
17208Would you not be glad, my dear, to have the same gift?
17208You wished to go into the cabinet?
17208cried out his wife,"could you really take the children and lose them?"
17208cried the mother,"what is it I see?
17208dear madam,"answered Little Thumb( who, with his brothers, was trembling in every limb),"what shall we do?
17208my Lord Marquis,"cried the King,"and does this castle also belong to you?
17208poor babies, where do you come from?
17208said he,"my merry lads, are you there?
17208said the Princess,"this is very pretty; how do you do it?
17208she cried;"but must I go as I am in these rags?"
17208what have I done?"
17208where are my children now, my poor children?"
17208where are our poor children now?
26944And now,cried the wicked King,"where is your third guest?"
26944But how shall I catch the bird?
26944But what good will that exquisite poem do?
26944Certainly,answered the king,"but where is the water to come from?"
26944Did you ever blow soap bubbles?
26944Do you eat stones?
26944Do you, too, wish to lose your ears?
26944Does n''t it tire you to be chopping away all alone there at that old tree?
26944Does n''t it tire you to be digging alone here, hollowing away at that old rock?
26944Does n''t it tire you to be gushing away all alone by yourself in your little corner?
26944Good, is it?
26944Have I not met you before?
26944Have you never read the story of Puss in Boots?
26944How are we ever to get him in the bubble, either as a tree or as a giant?
26944How can I ever repay you?
26944How can you expect these Ladies- in- Waiting to fulfill their Queen''s commands if you stand there blocking the royal exit?
26944How could a cat kill a giant? 26944 How did we get inside, or how did the bubble get around us?"
26944How do you make them grow so large?
26944Is the well deep enough, your Majesty?
26944Is there no magic charm which will remove them?
26944Is there no pity for a little orphan princess?
26944Pretty good, eh?
26944Shall I toss him over the moon?
26944What am I ever going to do?
26944What favor would you ask for the poor peasant children?
26944What is it?
26944What is it?
26944What is that white stuff?
26944What would you have me do?
26944What''s the good of that?
26944What''s the matter?
26944Where are we going?
26944Who are you?
26944Who has locked the doors?
26944Who lives in yonder castle?
26944And where was Ned''s little friend, the bluebird herself, all this time?
26944But what if he did not come back?
26944But what sort of an ostrich''s stomach have you got, Kiddo?
26944But where am I to find that Magic Axe?"
26944For else why should he ask for him?
26944For had not Ned a moment before seen his picture in the big book he had been reading?
26944Had she deserted her friends, the little princess asked herself?
26944How do I know but that they are enemies?"
26944How is she to enter if you block up her entrance?"
26944Ned waited a few moments and then asked:"Well, what are we going to do?"
26944The giant said nothing, for what could he say?
26944Though great was his delight, he did not forget his manners, and, turning to the little fairy, said:"How may I ever repay you for your great kindness?
26944What are you afraid of?"
26944Who the mischief are you?"
26944Will you come?"
26944Would you read about gnomes and then be so cowardly that you would fear to associate with them?"
26944[ Illustration]"Ca n''t you see a fellow is sleepy after reading so long a time?
26944called out Ned''s friend,"is not the goblin cake ready?"
26944he cried,"have I not had the pleasure of meeting you before, my fine friend?"
26944is that thunder?"
26944she exclaimed,"where has it gone?"
21678Are n''t they a good crop?
21678How can I obtain this wonderful water?
21678How can we let our father know that it was our little brother who succeeded in this quest? 21678 How can you succeed when your two older brothers have failed?
21678How could she ever have endured the rude hut in the depths of the forest?
21678How did such a lovely fairy ever happen to find our dirty, disorderly palace?
21678How will you ever swim past this terrible fish?
21678O dear little mother, what evil has befallen you during my absence?
21678O, holy_ padre_,he said to the priest,"have you seen anything of a little man, accompanied by a handsome young woman, passing this way?"
21678So you are the fisherman who says that my daughter is not the most beautiful princess in the world?
21678So you think that this is your house, do you?
21678What evil, has befallen our dear little sister?
21678What has happened to my beautiful princess who saved my life?
21678What has happened to our dear little sister that she has not cleaned them away?
21678What is the matter?
21678What is the special advantage of owning this butterfly?
21678What is the special advantage of this beetle?
21678What is the special advantage of this singing bird?
21678What kind fairy could have done all this work while we were away?
21678What lovely fairy is this?
21678What of the guard who stands on top of the wall with his head reaching up to the clouds?
21678What riddle are you going to ask the princess?
21678Where are we going?
21678Where are you going, my lad?
21678Who are you and what are you doing in my house?
21678Who could have slain our little sister whom we loved so much?
21678Who made these dirty marks?
21678Who will keep house for us now that our dear little sister is dead?
21678Why are these things so valuable that you should quarrel over them?
21678Will he not spy us?
21678You thought you''d catch my little hare, did you? 21678 _ Quem sabe?_"they say in Brazil.
21678Can you tell me anything about where she is and how I can find her?"
21678Each night she asked the image- maker,"Who is more beautiful, your wife or your child?"
21678Has n''t your majesty something which you could lend him to wear at the wedding?"
21678He then ate his dinner, and when he had nearly finished the meal his wife said to him,"If you should see my brother here what would you do to him?"
21678O, why did I ever listen to the story the little old woman told me about the water of the fountain of Giantland?"
21678One said to the other,"Do you observe the beautiful woman in the balcony?"
21678She called to the sands of the sea,"O sands of the sea, have you seen my darling mother?"
21678She called to the shells of the shore,"O shells of the shore, have you seen my precious mother?"
21678She ran outside the palace and called to the fishes of the river,"O fishes of the river, have you seen my own dear mother?"
21678Then his father said to him,"O my son, if a wandering princess had come this way on purpose to ask you a question, what would you do to her?"
21678Two soldiers passed by and one said to the other:"Do you observe those two beautiful women in the balcony?
21678When the giant saw D. Joaõ he called out,"O, little man, what are you doing down there?"
21678Where are you?
21678Where have you hidden yourself?"
21678Who is sending me such wonderful presents?"
21678Who knows?
21678Will you not be so kind as to lend it to me a little while?"
21678You think your father was always rich, do you?
21678[ Illustration: The next day the cat dug up pieces of gold and carried them to the king]"Where do you get these rich gifts?
21678[ Illustration: There in the hall stood the most enormous giant she had ever seen]"Who are you and what are you doing in my house?"
33673Bless me, what''s that?
33673Ca n''t you give me a little bit?
33673Good morning, brother,said Hans;"have you any message for the King of the Golden River?"
33673Ha, ha,laughed Schwartz,"are you there?
33673How did he get in?
33673I''m very, very hungry, sir; could n''t you spare me a bit of bread before I go?
33673Pray, sir,said Gluck, rather hesitatingly,"were you my mug?"
33673Want?
33673What did you keep us waiting in the rain for?
33673What''s that?
33673What''s your business?
33673Who are you, sir?
33673Who''s that?
33673Why do n''t you sell your feather?
33673Would n''t it, sir?
33673Your cap, sir?
33673_ Will_ you pour me out?
33673How long may I stay?"
33673What do you want, sir?"
33673[ Illustration]"Suppose we turn goldsmiths?"
33673do you suppose I carried it all the way up here for_ you_?"
33673said Gluck again,"what_ is_ that?"
33673said Gluck,"have you really been so cruel?"
33673said Schwartz;"do you suppose we''ve nothing to do with our bread, but to give it to such red- nosed fellows as you?"
33673said the dwarf,"they poured unholy water into my stream: do you suppose I''m going to allow that?"
33673what for, indeed, you little vagabond?"
30120''And how have you been all the winter?'' 30120 ''But could we not ask little Hans up here?''
30120''Buy back your wheelbarrow? 30120 ''Dear little Hans,''said the Miller,''would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?''
30120''Do you really think I shall?'' 30120 ''Do you think it would be unfriendly of me if I said I was busy?''
30120''Quite full?'' 30120 ''What do you want, little Hans?''
30120''Who is there?'' 30120 And how do you like the Water- rat?"
30120And what would you do in return?
30120And what, pray, is your idea of the duties of a devoted friend?
30120BAD Rocket? 30120 But what became of the Miller?"
30120But where is your little companion?
30120Do you mean to say that the story has a moral?
30120For a red rose?
30120Have you any commissions for Egypt?
30120How do you know?
30120I tell you what, you are very rude; and, after all, who are you? 30120 I was saying,"continued the Rocket,"I was saying---- What was I saying?"
30120Is that the end of the story?
30120Is the story about me?
30120Pray, what are you laughing at?
30120Shall I love you?
30120Shall I take him another ruby?
30120She has form,he said to himself, as he walked away through the grove--"that can not be denied to her; but has she got feeling?
30120Swallow, Swallow, little Swallow,said the Prince,"will you not stay with me for one night, and be my messenger?
30120Swallow, Swallow, little Swallow,said the Prince,"will you not stay with me one night longer?"
30120Swallow, Swallow, little Swallow,said the Prince,"will you not stay with me one night longer?"
30120The what?
30120Was he very distinguished?
30120Well, really,exclaimed a small Fire- balloon,"why not?
30120Well?
30120What are fireworks like?
30120What are you doing here?
30120What is a sensitive person?
30120What is the use of a statue if it can not keep the rain off?
30120What right have you to be happy? 30120 Where shall I put up?"
30120Who are you?
30120Who art thou?
30120Who hath dared to wound thee?
30120Why are you weeping then?
30120Why ca n''t you be like the Happy Prince?
30120Why is he weeping?
30120Why, indeed?
30120Why, indeed?
30120Will you come away with me?
30120And when he came quite close his face grew red with anger, and he said,"Who hath dared to wound thee?"
30120BAD Rocket?"
30120But what is the good of friendship if one can not say exactly what one means?
30120Death is the brother of Sleep, is he not?"
30120Do you know that I always work better after hearing the birds sing?''
30120Do you think it will be a wet afternoon?
30120Is there no way by which I can get it?"
30120May I ask were you born like that, or is it the result of an accident?"
30120Swallow, Swallow, little Swallow, will you not bring her the ruby out of my sword- hilt?
30120What did he see?
30120Yet Love is better than Life, and what is the heart of a bird compared to the heart of a man?"
30120You do n''t mean to say you have sold it?
30120[ Illustration: HANS IN HIS GARDEN]"''Have you mended the hole in the roof yet, little Hans?''
30120he murmured,"will you let me kiss your hand?"
30120is he not solid gold?"
30120what did he see?
29021Am I come hither,said the proud, saucy slut,"to serve you with water, pray?
29021And how will you do that?
29021Are they my brothers?
29021Does she live far off?
29021God grant it,replied the Queen;"but is there no way to make the eldest, who is so pretty, have some little wit?"
29021How can that be?
29021I am coming,answered his wife; and then she cried:"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see any one coming?"
29021Impossible?
29021It is true,he said to himself,"that there is none so great as a King, but what of the Queen that must share his dignity?
29021O yes,cried she,"but must I go thither as I am, in these poison nasty rags?"
29021One moment longer, if you please,said his wife, and then she cried out very softly:"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see any body coming?"
29021One moment longer,said his wife, and then she cried out:"Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see nobody coming?"
29021Well, mother?
29021What are you doing there, Goody?
29021What are you doing, my child?
29021What is this I see?
29021What,said he,"is not the key of my closet among the rest?"
29021Who knows that you will?
29021Who''s there?
29021Who''s there?
29021Will you not come down?
29021You do not know,replied Blue Beard;"I very well know, you were resolved to go into the closet, were you not?
29021Are you dissatisfied with my birth, my wit, humour, or manners?"
29021As she was doing this, they said to her:"Cinderilla, would you not be glad to go to the ball?"
29021Blue Beard, having very attentively considered it, said to his wife:"How comes this blood upon the key?"
29021Can you pretend this; you who have so great a share, and desired so earnestly to have it?
29021Cinderilla, who saw all this, and knew her slipper, said to them laughing:"Let me see if it will not fit me?"
29021Do ye know that this house belongs to a cruel Ogre, who eats up little children?"
29021He had already taken hold of one of them, when his wife said to him:"What need you do it now?
29021How happens this, child?"
29021I suppose the silver tankard was brought purely for your ladyship, was it?
29021Is it reasonable that persons of wit and sense should be in a worse condition than those who have none?
29021It is time enough to- morrow?"
29021SAID HER MOTHER"28"''AM I COME HITHER TO SERVE YOU WITH WATER, PRAY?''"
29021Sad and confounded, he said,"Is it you who lodge at the bottom of that dark alley in the third yard of the farm?"
29021Setting aside my ugliness and deformity, is there any thing in me which displeases you?
29021So soon as her mother saw her coming, she cried out:"Well, daughter?"
29021The Fairy then said to Cinderilla:"Well, you see here an equipage fit to go to the ball with; are you not pleased with it?"
29021This godmother of hers, who was a Fairy, said to her:"Thou wishest thou couldest go to the ball, is it not so?"
29021What was the Princess to do?

29021With what grace would she sit beside me on the throne with a yard of black pudding for a nose?"
29021Would''st not thou be glad, my dear, to have the same gift given to thee?

29021cried Miss Charlotte,"lend my cloaths to such a dirty Cinder- breech as thou art; who''s the fool then?"
29021cried out his wife,"and can''st thou thyself have the heart to take thy children out along with thee on purpose to lose them?"
29021cried the King,"and does this castle also belong to you?
29021dear Madam,"answered Little Thumb( who trembled every joint of him, as well as his brothers)"what shall we do?
29021how happy have you been; could not I see her?
29021my lord Marquis?"
29021poor babies, whither are ye come?
29021said he,"my merry lads, are you there?
29021said the Princess,"this is very pretty; how do you do it?
29021what have I done?"
29021where are now my children, my poor children?"
29021where are now our poor children?
20850All right, old fellow,says Alphonso;"but have you any luncheon with you?
20850And where is Benson?
20850Any soup, my dear?
20850Come for-- by whom?
20850Dear Molly,said the prince, who liked her,"how have I been so unfortunate as to offend you?"
20850Did your lordship ring for coffee?
20850Does he?
20850Does your royal highness not know,he asked,"that you are in considerable danger?"
20850First,he said,"where is the Firedrake?"
20850Honour bright?
20850How often must I tell you that there are_ no_ fairies? 20850 How_ can_ you be so_ absurd_?"
20850May I remind your royal highness that Falkenstein is three hundred miles away? 20850 Still?"
20850The family gibbet, I presume, is in good working order?
20850Then how does your royal highness mean to treat the proclamations?
20850Well, where was I? 20850 Well,"grunted the Firedrake,"what''s the matter?
20850What do you want?
20850What on earth am I to do with the young man?
20850Which of them will you have, my dear?
20850Who''s there?
20850Will you go back to your hole and swear, on your honour as a Firedrake, to listen quietly?
20850William,said his lordship,"where have you put his royal highness''s parcel and his carpet?"
20850You have asked all the right people, my dear?
20850You have not forgotten any of our aunts?
20850''Yes,''said I;''how did you manage it?''
20850''You did n''t believe there_ were_ any Firedrakes?''
20850''You have not generally found it so?''
20850And all the courtiers cried:"Yes, you did;"but some added, to themselves,"_ He always says_,''Did n''t I say so?''"
20850And all the time he never once said,"Have you read_ this_?"
20850And now, what_ am_ I to do?"
20850And was he then-- tired-- of_ me_?"
20850And what would you have done?
20850But as we left home before dinner, and as_ yours_ is over, may I request your lordship to believe that I should be delighted to take something cold?"
20850But were the king''s_ intentions_ to go for nothing?
20850But, even if the prince had been born clever( as may have happened to you), was he to be blamed for that?
20850But, if I do come back alive-- why, I can not be more the true heir than I am at present; now_ can_ I?
20850Can not the whole proclamation be annulled, and will you consider the bargain void if I tear up this flimsy scroll?"
20850Can you imagine anything more cruel and_ unjust_ than this conduct?
20850Did n''t I say so?"
20850Do n''t you like opening parcels?
20850Do n''t you remember that this is your wedding- day?
20850Gluckstein is a hundred leagues from here, and how sayest thou that thou slewest the monster, and camest hither in a few hours''space?''
20850How is Molinda?"
20850How was he to get Prigio out of the way, and make Enrico or Alphonso his successor?
20850I always said you would come back after a little trip-- didn''t I, Prigio?"
20850I think I''ve told you that his name was Prigio-- did I not?
20850I''ll!--"Do you know what he meant to do, if he could not find his brothers?
20850Now, could n''t you take the wishing cap, and wish to be no cleverer than other people?
20850Perhaps this has not been explained to you by your governess?
20850Probably you will be grilled, thank goodness; but who will give me back Enrico and Alphonso?"
20850So he went into the drawing- room, took his carpet, and wished to be-- now, where do you suppose?
20850The young ladies of the Court disliked dancing with him, in spite of his good looks, because he was always asking,"Have you read this?"
20850Then he waited a little, and remarked:"The fairies, of course, you have invited?
20850Then there came a whisper, like the breath of the bitter east wind on a winter day:"Where are you, and how can I come to you?"
20850Then, turning to the king, the prince said:"Sir, is there no way but by death or marriage?
20850Was Mr. Benson equally ready?
20850What do you want?"
20850When a subject only_ meant_ well, of course he had to suffer; but when a king said one thing, was he not to be supposed to have meant another?
20850Where have you been hiding?
20850Who was glad to see the prince, if it was not Lady Rosalind?
20850Why ca n''t you give a civil answer to a civil question?"
20850_ What is there he does n''t know_?
20850and is Molinda so terrible a person that you prefer_ those_ arms,"and she pointed to the gibbet,"to_ these_?"
20850and"Have you read that?"
20850cried he;"are you come after the monster too?
20850or"Have you read_ that_?"
20850said his majesty,"where were you off to?
20850what do you know about it?"
20850what do you say, you sneak?
20850you never heard of Alexander the Great?"
20850{ The King and Queen: p99.jpg}"You want to know all about it, I suppose?"
20850{ The Remora: p60.jpg} What was he to do, indeed?
20850{ The family executioner: p119.jpg}"Is life, then, so worthless?
22168And I asked you who is yourself?
22168And have you never a kiss for me?
22168And how can I get that?
22168And how did we grow so tall in one night?
22168And what are they, and where are they?
22168And what are you good for?
22168And whatever it cost you,said the fairy,"will you pay the price?"
22168And when shall we hear them?
22168And where is that island?
22168And where is that?
22168And where is the crystal hall of the fairy?
22168And where was the little mother all that time?
22168And who are you, then?
22168And who is he and where is he?
22168And who would n''t give welcome on a night like this?
22168And will you leave me to myself until then?
22168Are you ready to pay the price? 22168 Are you ready to pay the price?"
22168Are you ready to pay the price?
22168Are you willing, Congal?
22168Are you, Ailinn?
22168But how can I break the spell?
22168Did you ever hear the''Foggy Dew''?
22168Do n''t you know me?
22168For the third and last time, are you ready to pay the price?
22168For whom?
22168Have you brought the three balls?
22168How am I to get to it?
22168I can dive like a fish,said Enda;"but how can I walk beneath the waters?"
22168Is it true I must die to- morrow?
22168Is that all?
22168More, you little----what''s your name?
22168Oh, you are a prince, are you?
22168Oh, you have, have you?
22168On your honor as a giant?
22168Shall I ever see you again?
22168Since you know so much,said the dwarf,"can you tell me who I am, and where I came from?"
22168Then what do you mean?
22168Then, what am I to do?
22168Unless what?
22168Well,said the giantess, when she came in,"is there anything you wish?"
22168What brought you here?
22168What can this mean?
22168What is it to me,said Fergus,"who is to win her since I can not?"
22168What is it to you what way I shouted?
22168What is the price?
22168What is the price?
22168What sort of a champion is he?
22168What were you shouting for?
22168Whatever it will cost you?
22168When will the giant come back?
22168Where do you come from, and what do you want?
22168Where do you come from, and what is your name?
22168Who are you at all, at all?
22168Who are you, my little man?
22168Who is yourself?
22168Will you stay with me until then?
22168Yes, if it cost me my life,said the dwarf;"but tell me, how can the spell be broken?"
22168Yes,said Connla,"but where is the little house under the hill?"
22168You asked me who I am?
22168You know very well who she is,said the prince,"if you knew what I was thinking of; but do you know where she is?"
22168[ 3]And where shall I find them?"
22168And now tell me, truly, do you love the princess, and what would you give to free her from the spell of enchantment that is over her?"
22168But are you really willing to try and break the spell of enchantment and free the princess?"
22168But say who is the champion who has brought you hither, and who has slain the wild boar we have hunted so many years in vain?"
22168What is the price?"
22168When the giant heard the sound he cried out:"Who comes to challenge me on my wedding- day?"
22168When the horse galloped on to the strand the little man doffed his hat, and said to the children:"Would you like to follow the nine little pipers?"
22168asked the princess,"and who is the man?"
22168did you ever hear a song so sweet as this?"
29311And I asked you who is yourself?
29311And how can I get that?
29311And how did we grow so tall in one night?
29311And what are they, and where are they?

29311Is that all?
29311More, you little----what''s your name?
29311No matter where I come from or what''s my name,said the cat,"I am a friend of yours, and I come to help you?"
29311Oh, you are a prince, are you?
29311Oh, you have, have you?
29311On your honour as a giant?
29311Shall I ever see you again?

29311asked the princess,"and who is the man?"
29311did you ever hear a song so sweet as this?"
20836Amphibious like?
20836And what are you going to do now?
20836And what will you do when you get there?
20836Are you hurt?
20836Are you sure you can hold me?
20836But are you sure you did not take anything that disagreed with you while you were away?
20836But what is that?
20836By the way, how would you like a real good grasshopper?
20836Ca n''t you find out?
20836Did you come with him?
20836Did you not have a good time?
20836Have you that one,asked Ting- a- ling,"that I used to take out last summer?"
20836How do you do?
20836How many did you eat, my dear?
20836How old is she?
20836How so?
20836How''s that?
20836I have chased away her servants,said he;"how will she ever find her way anywhere?"
20836Is it all over?
20836Is it far?
20836Is n''t he horrid?
20836Is that a well?
20836Is that you? 20836 Is this the way you treat a stranger?"
20836Is your master within?
20836It is a hot day, is n''t it?
20836My friend,said Alcahazar,"do n''t you think that is rather a careless way of using a sword?
20836O you good giant,she cried,"are you there?
20836Shall I fetch you?
20836The distance by the sea is much the shortest; would you be willing to go in that way?
20836This, then,said he, rising,"is where the King hardens his cheeses, is it?
20836Were you told to go down there to meet anybody? 20836 What are you doing there?"
20836What does this mean? 20836 What makes you look so, my dear?"
20836What shall I ever do? 20836 What''s all this noise about?"
20836What''s the good of his seeing all around him?
20836What''s up?
20836Whom have you here, base slave?
20836Why, do n''t you know? 20836 Why, where did you come from?"
20836Will you take some rest and refreshment? 20836 Yes indeed,"said the chuckling dwarf;"can you play at it?"
20836Yes,said the little wretch, chuckling;"can you play at it?"
20836But what have you done with my slaves?"
20836Did n''t I tell you that breakfast was to be all ready when I came down?
20836Do you know where she is?"
20836Does your Majesty recognize them?"
20836Dwarf, is that your game?"
20836Glancing at the bed, and seeing the yellow boots sticking out, the old fellow muttered:"Gone to bed with his clothes on, eh?
20836Have you a fast butterfly that you can let me have right away?"
20836How came you to be so late?"
20836O what shall I do?"
20836O, what shall we do?
20836She asked the Prince,"Do you play?"
20836What do you mean, you lazy rascals?
20836What does this mean?
20836What have you been doing, Giant?"
20836What_ was_ the Kyrofatalapynx?
20836Where is her cave?
20836Where is that Prince you were talking about?"
20836Where''s my boots?
20836Why wait so long outside?
20836Will you come?"
20836Would we soil them with the dust of travel, ere we entered the halls of my lord the dwarf?"
20836[ Illustration]"A mermaid, I suppose?"
20836cried she, with a hideous grin,"you are able to get along by yourself, are you, my dear?
20836cried the Prince,"where is it?
20836cried the slave,"why did you not tell me that before?"
20836cried they,"is that your game?"
20836my vigorous Prince,"cried she,"why do you stop?
20836said the King;"and what can I do for such a mite as you, my fine little fellow?"
20836walk?"
20836what do they know?
15659Alas,she cried,"why should I always have to stay in the kitchen while my sisters dress in silks and satins?"
15659Are you sure that you no longer wish the golden touch?
15659Are you sure?
15659But how am I to go in these clothes?
15659Did you hear that noise?
15659Do you not know? 15659 Do you still think that gold is the greatest thing in the world?"
15659Does no one of our soldiers dare to meet him?
15659Henry?
15659How could you hold the reins?
15659If I should grant you one wish,said the fairy,"would you ask for more gold?"
15659Is it not time to pull out the fish?
15659Is not God on the side of our people?
15659Is that you, little Goody?
15659Is your name Cowribs, or Sheepshanks, or Bandy legs?
15659Well, Alice,said Two Shoes,"have you learned your lesson?"
15659What do I see?

15659Who is that man?
15659Who is there?
15659Whose horse is this?
15659Why are you making so much noise?
15659Why are you panting, my friend?
15659Why are you sad?
15659Why do you bark at little Two Shoes? 15659 Why do you let the rats do this?"
15659Will you sell me that cat?
15659All the children were safe, but what had become of Margery''s dear books and letters and other things?
15659And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day?
15659And would n''t it be better far To treat it as a joke, And say you''re glad''twas Dolly''s, And not your head that broke?
15659And would n''t it be nicer For you to smile than pout, And so make sunshine in the house When there is none without?
15659And would n''t it be wiser Than waiting like a dunce, To go to work in earnest, And learn the thing at once?
15659Can you see Margery with her basket of letters in this picture?
15659Can you see Tommy in the picture wearing his new clothes?
15659Did you ever read lines like these in your school reader?
15659Did you ever see a dog with such bright eyes?
15659Did you notice how short his tail was?
15659Do you think she deserved to be very happy?
15659He took off his pointed cap and said to the miller''s daughter,"What will you give me if I help you again, and spin this straw into gold?"
15659How did you catch them?"

15659Taking off his pointed cap, he said to the girl,"What will you give me if I will again spin this straw for you?"
15659Tell me, little raindrops, Is that the way you play?
15659The little raindrops can not speak, But"pitter- patter- pat"Means,"We can play on this side, Why ca n''t you play on that?"

15659leaving your mother, you foolish young pig?
22756''What have you lost, my dear?
22756''But how am I to get back so quickly?'' 22756 ''But how am I to ride him?''
22756''But the Wonderful Plant, where is it? 22756 ''But what if Bowser will not carry the basket?''
22756''First, may I ask,''I said,''does Bowser bite?'' 22756 ''How are you to- day, my daughter?''
22756''Oh, dear, how much longer must I wait to get out of this horrid shape? 22756 ''What is it made of?''
22756''When?'' 22756 ''Who told you anything about it?''
22756And what has happened to the furniture, and all the plate and china, my dear?
22756And where is Princess Bethel now?
22756And where may that be?
22756And your brother Tasmir,asked Daimur,"do you still believe him to be alive?"
22756But how did you get here?
22756But what do you suppose became of the ring?
22756But when will he return?
22756But, Daimur,said Redmond,"how can that be, they are only ordinary laurel leaves?"
22756Ca n''t you think of anything that would induce them to weep?
22756Can I not help you?
22756Can it be that my faithful subjects have sent you to seek me, sir?
22756Can you not call the Queen and the Princess,asked Daimur,"so that they may share some of this food?"
22756Did you see them?
22756Do you think he could have found it after all?
22756Do you think,he continued as he looked about him,"that if we were to make a fire in the cave the Magician could see the smoke?"
22756Does anybody drink its waters?
22756For mercy''s sake, have you any guns?
22756Have you any coal- oil?
22756Have you ever seen the Magician?
22756How can you see so far?
22756How could I escape? 22756 I am afraid I am,"answered Daimur sadly, as he gazed at the beautiful lady,"but tell me, do you know whether Queen Amy is here?
22756Is it dry enough yet?
22756Is it you, dear Redmond?
22756Is there no other way of escape but by this door?
22756It looks and smells like tar,said the Captain,"and now how in the world are we to get out of it?
22756My dear,said the Duchess,"how can you expect us to believe such a story?
22756Oh, tell us, good fairy, is our father still alive?
22756Suddenly I heard a woman''s voice say,''Bowser, Bowser, what have you there? 22756 Tasmir,"he murmured in a low tone,"where are you?"
22756Tell me what has happened, my poor old friend,he cried,"who has done this?"
22756What can I do to save you?
22756What can it be?
22756What did I tell you?
22756What happened next?
22756What happened?
22756What have you found?
22756What is it?
22756What is it?
22756What is the meaning of this commotion?
22756What is the meaning of this commotion?
22756What shall we do?
22756What''s the matter with everybody?
22756Where does that river flow?
22756Where is he?
22756Where is the source of this river?
22756Where shall we look now?
22756Who are you and what are you doing here? 22756 Why not make each man peel a peck of good strong onions?"
22756''Did you find the magic tablets yet, mother?''
22756''Do n''t I tell you I flew over the ship yesterday and saw it on his hand?''
22756''Do you suppose there is somebody in our stronghold, Mary?
22756''Kill him and throw him overboard?''
22756''What do you mean prying into my affairs?
22756And where was Queen Amy, her court and her servants?
22756Are there any other people about?"
22756Good Bowser, where is the tramp?
22756I asked,''or am I to meet with some misfortune for having dared to enter upon this oasis?''
22756Is it money?"
22756May I see it?''
22756Oh, what shall I do?"
22756The other guard was even worse, for all he could say was,"Who goes there?"
22756The woman''s voice said:"''Are you sure he had it on his finger when he left port?''
22756What could it mean?
22756What do you say, will you accept my offer?"
22756Will you not stay in this beautiful house and tend my Wonderful Plant?
22756Would it really fit?
163Ah,cried the shivering Elf,"where can I find shelter?
163And are you really, then, a little Elf, such as I read of in my fairy books? 163 And shall I see her, Violet, as she journeys over the earth?"
163Are they not worthy of your love, dear Queen? 163 Can this be naughty Thistle?"
163Dear Spring, will you listen, and help a poor little Spirit, who seeks far and wide for the Fire- Spirits''home?
163Dear Thistle, what mean these fair things, and why are we in this lovely place?
163Do you not know that Spring is coming? 163 Do you suffer much, dear Gauzy- Wing?"
163Harebell, if a silkworm spin one yard of Fairy cloth in an hour, how many will it spin in a day?
163Have you a tale for us too, dear Violet- Eye?
163Heed,said the mother rose,"daughter mine, Why shouldst thou seek for beauty not thine?
163How beautiful they are,whispered Eva,"but, dear Rose- Leaf, why do you keep them here, and why call you this your fairest sight?"
163How shall I find the Spirits in this great sea, with none to help or guide me? 163 I am here, what would you with me, little Spirit?"
163Now, Star- Twinkle, what have you to teach?
163Now, little Sunbeam, what have you to tell us?
163Primrose, where lies Violet Island?
163Rosebud, if a Cowslip opens three leaves in one day and four the next, how many rosy leaves will there be when the whole flower has bloomed?
163Thistle, dear Thistle, where are you?
163Twinkle, if there lay nine seeds within a flower- cup and the wind bore five away, how many would the blossom have?
163What do they here?
163What do you seek with me, fair little Spirit, that you come so bravely here amid my ice and snow? 163 What shall we do to you, naughty Elf?"
163Where have you brought me, and what mean these lovely sounds?
163Who are you, lovely little thing?
163Why are you all so gay, dear birds?
163Why are you so slow in blooming, little one? 163 And can I, heedless of their beauty, doom them to pain and grief, that I might save my own dear blossoms from the cruel foes to which I leave them? 163 But shall I never see YOU more? 163 But while I eat, tell me, dear Violet, why are you all so sad? 163 But, dear sisters, see you not how high the sun is getting? 163 Do you ride on butterflies, sleep in flower- cups, and live among the clouds?
163Do you see yonder lovely spirit singing with my sister Moonlight?
163Have they not won their lovely home?
163Here he lay weeping bitterly, till a voice beside him said,"Poor little Elf, what has befallen you?
163How could you harm the little helpless one, that never did aught to injure you?"
163How then may we keep our frail blossoms from his cruel spirits?
163I have scarce seen a happy face since my return from Rose Land; dear friend, what means it?"
163May I not go in?"
163My four are here, and this also; what think you of it?"
163Now will you stay with us, and learn what even mortals seek to know, that labor brings true happiness?"
163Now, Eglantine, what have you to tell us of your rosy namesakes on the earth?"
163Order, patience, industry, who can teach so well as they who are the emblems of these virtues?
163Ought we then to leave them to die uncared for and alone?
163The earth is broad, and we can find them in any land, then why should you care what happens to their kindred if your own are safe?
163Then shouldst thou not be grateful for all this kindly care, And strive to keep thyself most innocent and fair?
163Then why dost thou take with such discontent The loving gift which he to thee hath sent?
163Then, when he sees them fading on his breast, will he not sigh that there is no warmth there to keep them fresh and lovely?
163They give to us their all; ought we not to toil unceasingly, that they may bloom in peace within their quiet homes?
163Where can this fine egg have come from?
163Who will be our messenger for the last time?
163Who will give us counsel?
163Will you be King of Flower- Land, and own my gentle kindred for your loving friends?
163Will you do this?"
163Will you give it me for what I offer, little Spirit?"
163Will you possess unfading peace and joy, and the grateful love of all the green earth''s fragrant children?
163answered Violet sadly,"do you not know that beneath the flowers''bright leaves there beats a little heart that loves and sorrows like our own?
163good little Fairy, will you teach me how?"
163is it another and a lovelier dream, or is the earth in truth so beautiful as this?"
163she asked, as their cheerful voices sounded far and near;"is there a festival over the earth, that all is so beautiful and bright?"
163sighed the weary little Spirit,"shall I never see the light again, or feel the warm winds on my cheek?
12313''You wish to have your puppets animated; you would have them become real actors and actresses,''said he,''and yourself be the manager? 12313 And can I procure you peace in the grave?"
12313And how?
12313And who are you, then?
12313Anno--yes, what then?
12313Are there any travellers here?
12313Arrogance,said the dead;"dost thou see him?"
12313But why descend at all?
12313What ails me?
12313What ails you?
12313What did you wish for?
12313Where does it exist?
12313Who is that dead man?
12313Why will men do these things?
12313''Are you happy?''
12313***** It is a delightful spring: the birds warble, but you do not understand their song?
12313***** Reader, do you know what giddiness is?
12313***** The painter Callot-- who does not know the name, at least from Hoffmann''s"in Callot''s manner?"
12313***** Who did we meet at Trollhätta?
12313And here is a nettle: what does its leaf say?
12313And how then should our Lord permit it?
12313And what is the Streamparterre?
12313And where were the second one''s thoughts?
12313And who are you?"
12313And who rested here?
12313And whose were they?
12313But why none of the worthier figures-- the candid, the honest, and the beautiful?
12313Can it be possible, thought I, that we human beings can find out such things?
12313Did it go quicker downwards, or was it going up again?
12313Do you hear the monotonous rumble?
12313Do you know why?
12313Do you see how the gables grow?
12313Dost thou not know it?
12313Dost thou not know it?
12313How many hands that bound these flowers are now withered in the grave?
12313Is it not as if he stepped forth from amongst the dead, and announced that such afflicted creatures were to be where St. Bridget once ruled?
12313Jag tycker jag kan icke skifta mig for n genann an Menniska, jungfru Maria, St. Birgitta och himmelens Härskaror skalla kanske straffe mig hårfar?
12313Not a bird is heard to twitter, not a pine- tree moves: of what does the Southern summer dream here in the North, amongst pines and fragrant birches?
12313Patience?
12313Shall we lay it to heart?
12313Son of time, choose, who shall be thy companion?
12313The howling of the wolf and the bear, dos''t thou know it?
12313The spirit comes over it, but whence does it come from?
12313There stands his bust; but the remembrance of himself, his home, his own little garden-- where is it most vivid?
12313This of itself is enough to awaken an interest for a little town; but what is its appearance?
12313Was it an intoxicated or a mad man that was to be let in?
12313What can my prayer change, where everything is law, from eternity to eternity?
12313What did he think on plucking it-- on preserving it?
12313What does one feel?
12313What fairy tales can not the world unfold under the microscope, if we transfer our human world thereto?
12313What is it that so frightens these numberless flocks?
12313What life''s dream have ye dead played here in silent Sala?
12313Where are the birds that sang?
12313Where does he now live?
12313Where is now the cloister''s might?
12313Where is the district''s"Old Mortality,"who weeds the grass, and explains the ancient memorials?
12313Whither wilt thou conduct us first, thou our guide with the white- and- black student''s cap?
12313Who are these?
12313Who had been here during the night?
12313Who is that dead opposite neighbour in the chapel, across there in the other side- aisle of the church?
12313Who was she who once dwelt in this cell?
12313Who was she?
12313Whose heart throbbed loudest at that kiss?
12313Why does Grandmother look thus on the withered flower in the old book?
12313Will he return joyful and unharmed-- return to Sweden''s peaceful, well- constituted, happy land?
12313You cut out so well, Sir, should you not be able to cut me out some new fashions?"
12313or shall we go to the church- yard where the nettles grow over Geier''s and Törnro''s graves?
12313shall I ever get there?"
12313what was to be done?
12313you then think that you would be perfectly happy?''
18604A letter for you,asked Rudy,"and to whom?"
18604But should we not all, here on earth, give the best part of us to others? 18604 But what was said?"
18604But why did you not break your neck?
18604Do you know the latest news at the mill?
18604Do you know the latest news in the mill?
18604Do you not wish to go after the black spot in the moon? 18604 Have you any milk?
18604Have you become mad? 18604 How now, is that the way you look when older?"
18604I expect something fearfully grand,said the rose- tree,"may I ask when it will take place?"
18604I shall take my time,said the snail,"you are in too great a hurry, and when this is the case, how can one''s expectations be fulfilled?"
18604I wonder if Rudy will become an agile chamois hunter in a few years? 18604 My engagement ring?"
18604Said? 18604 What I have given?
18604What do you mean?
18604What has occurred?
18604Where do you come from?
18604Who can the artist be?
18604Who can the strange hunter be?
18604Who is that?
18604Why torment one''s self? 18604 Your flock, where do they pasture?
18604''Shall I follow you?''
18604And how it comes to pass?
18604Are you happy now?
18604At that moment a heavy hand struck him on the shoulder, and a gruff voice addressed him in the French tongue:"You are from Canton Valais?"
18604At the dawn of day he started up.--What was this?
18604Before the stone cross which was placed in the wall?
18604Can you answer this?
18604Can you tell me why you blossom?
18604Can you understand what I say?"
18604Could he confess everything to Babette?
18604Could she confess to him?
18604Did he come in order to have Babette entertain and wait upon him?
18604Did my dream foretell my future life?
18604Does the crater know that it throws forth burning lava?
18604Every thought, which in the hour of temptation might have become a reality?
18604For had he not cast away the vanity of the world, was he not a son of the church?
18604He desired to give expression to the feelings which agitated his heart; but how and in what shape?
18604He sat tearless on his hard couch, desolate, kneeling-- before whom?
18604How did you get him?"
18604How?
18604If all here consists of beautiful thoughts and but resemble those which beguiled me in the world?
18604Is all this misery for my salvation?
18604Now who must one believe, the rats or the lovers?"
18604Offer what we can!--It is true, that I have only given roses-- but you?
18604See, something living moved in the sunshine in the two eye sockets; what was that?
18604Shall we read the story of the past again?
18604Should she see him at her wedding?
18604Tell me, shall I obtain this one or that one?
18604The flowers appeared in their most beautiful dresses, but of what avail was this?
18604Was he perhaps in Montreux?
18604Was he raised on high, or did he sink into the deep, murderous ice- pit, deeper and ever deeper?
18604Was it a childlike feeling, or the levity of youth, that had induced him to give himself up to grace, and which made him feel elevated above so many?
18604Was it a dream?
18604Was it the power of the Evil One, that caused these wild thoughts to rage constantly within him?
18604Was that the sinful seed in my heart?
18604We can live very well for one another, but to marry?
18604Were these the inhabitants of the new home?
18604Were those faces, or was all a feverish dream?
18604What I give?
18604What could he say?
18604What could he tell?
18604What did the Englishman want here?
18604What do you give her?"
18604What flames were these, that at times glowed through him?
18604What have I to do with the world?
18604What have you won and found after all?
18604What would you do?"
18604Which one?
18604Who is the best shot in Canton Valais?
18604Who were the distinguished visitors?
18604Why?"
18604Yes, but which did he like?
18604You who have received so much, what have you given to the world?
18604away!--Must it be buried like yon Psyche, the light of my life?
18604said Rudy;"Do you know no better way, and yet wish to be a guide?"
2325Ah, my daughter, whom have you here?
2325And now, what can I do for you?
2325Are you one of Neptune''s horses?
2325Are you very tired?
2325Bless my big hob- nailed club,said Mr. Merry Laugh, for this was the giant''s name,"how did you come to do that?"
2325But what about my finger?
2325But what am I to do with my torn sleeve?
2325But what can that do for me?
2325But where are we going?
2325Did you have a good sleep?
2325Do you know that coat is a magic one?
2325Do you think you will be able to do all this?
2325Do you?
2325Have you a pair of red top boots?
2325Have you been swimming?
2325Hello,cried Mary Louise,"do n''t you want me to help you?"
2325How may I reach the Gardens of the West?
2325How would you like to visit the Court of the Mer King?
2325I wonder what it was that caused such a tremendous crash?
2325In the ice- chest or in the ice- box?
2325Is it really for me? 2325 Is n''t it awful hard work dressing in a berth?"
2325Is the road again in operation?
2325May I go with Mary Louise?
2325Oh dear me,she sighed again,"now what shall I do?"
2325Oh, dear me,she sighed,"where is Dapple Gray?"
2325Oh, oh,yawned Mary Louise,"am I really here?"
2325Well,exclaimed King Seaphus, after a brief silence,"you honor us by your presence, but, what do you want?"
2325What are you looking for?
2325What can I do for you, Your Highness?
2325What can I do for you, little Mistress?
2325What can I do for you, pretty maiden?
2325What can I do for you?
2325What can it do?
2325What do you suppose is the matter?
2325What do you want?
2325What do you wish?
2325What is the news, dearie?
2325What is your majesty''s command?
2325What kind of seeds are these?
2325Where are we going?
2325Where are we going?
2325Where are we?
2325Where did you learn all this?
2325Where would you like to go?
2325Where''s my waist?
2325Who are you?
2325Why, are you a princess?
2325Why, what''s the matter?
2325Will they object if I travel through it?
2325Will you give me two that I may plant them on each side of our front door?
2325You do know geography, do n''t you? 2325 You want what?"
2325And what are those pretty green islands, with their clusters of trees and grassy slopes, but the summits of hills lifted out of the water?"
2325And would you believe it?
2325And, would you believe it?
2325Are you fond of maple sugar candy?"
2325But I thought you were looking for the Wishing Stone?"
2325But, if the Iceberg Express is wrecked, how am I to continue my journey?"
2325Do you like tails better than feet?"
2325Is it pretty, away down there under the waves?"
2325Is it really?"
2325Is n''t that a strange title?
2325The Enchanted Prince"Would you like to land on the island?"
2325Therefore, little Mary Louise, if I call all my people together, will you open this box and deliver us from the spell of the Great Enchanter?"
2325Was n''t that nice of him?
2325Was n''t that strange?
2325Well was n''t that the luckiest thing that could have happened?
2325Well, well, have we come to the end of the story, you and I, little reader?
2325What are we going to do now?"
2325What is that little rocky ledge over yonder, where the white lighthouse stands, but the stony top of a hill rising from the bottom of the sea?
2325What right had you to tear it?"
2325Who was down there under the blue water, with the hoarse, hollow voice, urging and pushing them across the beach to her feet?
2325Why, the first train was only an ordinary iceberg, do n''t you remember?"
2325exclaimed the King,"what is that?"
18859And besides, how was he to escape at last? 18859 Are we?"
18859Are you a fairy?
18859Are you not the shadows of chairs and tables, and pokers and tongs, just as well?
18859But did it not deceive him?
18859But does he drink less? 18859 But what is one to do-- I mean two to do-- when they ca n''t help it?"
18859But what was the good of that?
18859Can that be true that loves the night?
18859Can that be true which mocks at forms?
18859Can you hear me?
18859Did the fashionable mother confess too?
18859Do they always go to church before they go to work?
18859Have you a knife, Richard?
18859Have you no hearts?
18859How can I go and see it, when, as you know very well, I am ill in bed? 18859 How can you tell that, Richard, when all is as black as pitch?"
18859How could that make him tell?
18859How did you come here, young Richard?
18859How did you make him confess?
18859How far am I from home?
18859How will you do it?
18859How? 18859 How?"
18859How?
18859In old books?
18859In still green places in the country?
18859Is n''t he handsome?
18859Is this dreamland, then?
18859On your honour, as a respectable old owl?
18859Please your majesty, may we present our petition?
18859Well?
18859What Shadows?
18859What are those other Shadows that move through the crowd?
18859What are you?
18859What did everybody know then?
18859What do you want?
18859What is to be done now, Richard?
18859What is?
18859What was it? 18859 Where are we?"
18859Where is the church?
18859Where is your fairy?
18859Where is your goblin?
18859Will you come to the next tree, Alice?
18859Will you please to sit on the other side of the tree? 18859 Will you take another cup of tea, dear?"
18859And what do you think the owl was saying?
18859But how were they to be brought?
18859Did you not hear the child scream?
18859Have you done him any good?"
18859He used to study his sermons-- where do you think?"
18859How else could these mad, grotesque hippopotamus- calves make their ugly appearance in Ralph Rinkelmann''s bed- room?
18859How?
18859How?"
18859Is n''t it your Kissy- Day too, ganpa?''
18859Is not your majesty afraid of them too?"
18859Now who can do that?
18859Shall we change?"
18859What are you?"
18859What was it?"
18859What was to be done?
18859Where else should it be?"
18859Who would be a man and weep?
18859Why did you come this way?"
18859Will you go with me to the sunset?"
18859Would your majesty like to see it?"
18859You call them ghosts, do n''t you?"
18859brethren, who would be a man and remember?
18859bring the dead to life?"
18859retorted he;"and with you?
18859said the king;"or are they as black as your faces?
18859what''s that?"
18859which is the way out?"
18859you goomy?
18859your majesty?"
33570Have you,said he,"the audacity to doubt the word of my aunt Martha?
33570To which crab do you refer?
33570Where is she?
33570Why should you, who are maybe blessed with young of your own, rob a poor widowed oyster of her only consolation since the death of her husband? 33570 ''Now what is all this about?"
33570''And now, fourthly and lastly,''said the Mayor,''What do you do with all useless things?''
33570''Anything wrong, old chirpy?''
33570''Are you all fit?''
33570''But which two?''
33570''But who is she?''
33570''Come now,''continued the King, in a cheerful voice,''does any one of you feel at all like a duchess?''
33570''Have you,''said he, addressing the first triplet,''any idea as to which of the three of you you really are?''
33570''His wealth and importance did not deter me from aspiring to the hand of his fascinating daughter; and why should they have done so?
33570''How can any of them feel unjustly treated if she does n''t know whether she''s the guilty one or not?''
33570''Now, thought I, is this not providential?
33570''Secondly, What is the good of a gate with a useless lock that wo n''t unlock?''
33570''Then who of you is Mellinid, and who Edil?''
33570''Thirdly, What is the use of a town if you ca n''t get into it?''
33570''Which of you,''asked Bill,''is the Duchess?''
33570''Who are you?''
33570And if we do n''t fulfil our obligations, where do we stand?
33570And that respectful mute, the Minister of Education, does he dream that I forget his winsome pranks and jokes?
33570And what of my old friend the Secretary of State?
33570As soon as he caught sight of her he roared in his wrath,"Is this what you call keeping your bargain?"
33570Before I had time to greet him he accosted me with"Well, old kneebones, what''s the trouble?"
33570Come now, which of you is she?''
33570Firstly, What is the good of a locked lock without a key?''
33570Is it for this gross insult that I allowed her to resume her wretched existence?
33570Moreover, was not I the pride of the empire and the envy of all the other kings and princes who had ever seen or heard of me?
33570Shall we have him to- night, or keep him for next Tuesday, my birthday you know, dear?"
33570This is how you waste your time, is it?
33570Was not I in the very promising position of owning the largest corn- chandler''s store, from Wapping Old Stairs even as far down as Barking Creek?
15145And what are you carrying under your apron?
15145And where does your grandmother live?
15145But where are you?
15145But where have you seen her?
15145Do n''t you know it''s a sin to steal?
15145Do n''t you see that a wretch of a fish is pulling me in?
15145Except for my ugliness,said Riquet,"have you anything against me?
15145Hansel, why do you stop and look about?
15145How dare you steal my roses? 15145 How shall we get out of the wood?"
15145I will try and do what you both ask,he said,"and what shall I bring for my Beauty?"
15145I,cried the Prince,"Blanchette that I love: do you think I should be cruel enough to kill you?
15145Just look at the beautiful flowers which grow near you; why do you not look about you? 15145 Now, child,"said he to his own daughter,"what will you have?"
15145Sister Anne, Sister Anne, look once again, can you see no one coming?
15145Sister Anne, Sister Anne, tell me is no one coming?
15145Surely you will not jump into the water?
15145This is not the true bride,said he to the father;"have you no other daughters?"
15145What are you gazing at?
15145What does the good- for- nothing thing want in the parlour?
15145What is this?
15145What noise was that?
15145What right has that eagle to persecute the raven? 15145 What shall it be?"
15145What were you doing, little fellow?
15145What''s that to me?
15145Where are you going so early, Little Red Riding Hood?
15145Where are you going?
15145Where do you like to sit?
15145Where''s that?
15145Where, then, are you going, dear bear?
15145Who has been lying on my bed?
15145Who would go and get more people? 15145 Who''s that?"
15145Why, how now, good mother,said the princess,"what are you doing there?"
15145Why, where have you been?
15145Why?
15145Will you be quiet?
15145But Thumbling pretended not to understand them, and bawled out again,"How much will you have?
15145Ca n''t you come and try to help me?"
15145Ca n''t you think of something better?"
15145Can you see no one coming?"
15145Cinderella?"
15145Do you object to my birth, my character, or my manners?"
15145Do you think it is poisoned?
15145Eggs, do you like eggs hard or soft?"
15145Grethel perceived her wicked thoughts and said,"I do not know how to do it; how shall I get in?"
15145Grethel wept bitterly, and said to Hansel,"What will become of us?"
15145Have you ever seen such charming princes and lovely princesses, such dainty grace and delicate feeling?
15145He handed Beauty a chair, and when she had sat down said:"I bid you welcome; which do you take, tea or coffee?"
15145He stared at the children, with his red, fiery eyes, and called out,"Why are you standing there?
15145How can we feed our children, when we have no more than we can eat ourselves?"
15145In this sad plight, Avenant exclaimed one day,"How have I offended his Majesty?
15145Just as he was falling asleep he heard two men passing, and one said to the other,"How shall we manage to steal that rich parson''s silver and gold?"
15145Shall I throw it all out?"
15145Snow- White looked out of the window, and cried,"Good- day, good woman; what have you to sell?"
15145Tell me who?"
15145The father thought to himself,"Can it be Cinderella?"
15145The fifth,"Who has been handling my fork?"
15145The first said,"Who has been sitting on my stool?"
15145The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?"
15145The seventh,"Who has been drinking my wine?"
15145The sixth,"Who has been cutting with my knife?"
15145The third,"Who has been picking at my bread?"
15145Then a sweet voice called out in the room,"Tip- tap, tip- tap, who knocks at my door?"
15145Then the Prince came to himself, and cried,"By what charm have you made me forget what is so important?
15145Then the woodman laughed and said,"How can that be?
15145What would you do with such an insignificant little fellow?
15145What''s the use of being ruler of a great empire if I may not treat my dog as I will?"
15145When the dwarf noticed what they were about, he exclaimed, in a great rage,"Is this how you damage my beard?
15145Where shall I find the dog, and a horse swift enough for such a journey?"
15145Who is fairest?
15145Who would have thought that the most beautiful Princess in the world would be treated thus?
15145Why did you sleep so long in the wood?
15145Will they not be sweet?"
15145You laugh, do you?"
15145[ Illustration] Now she ran to Hansel, and, opening the door, called out,"Hansel we are saved; the old witch is dead?"
15145answered the other,"what are you afraid of?
15145are you here, you old rascal?
15145cried the dwarf, at the same time becoming red with rage;"and what are you standing there for, making ugly faces?"
15145said he,"how did I manage to tumble into the mill?"
15145said she;"you who have nothing to wear, no clothes at all, and who can not even dance-- you want to go to the ball?"
15145said the White Cat,"you have returned once more without your crown?"
15145said they,"what can you do for us?"
15145the fourth,"Who has been meddling with my spoon?"
15145what is this?"
15145what will become of me?"
20748A spinning- wheel-- what is that? 20748 And Beauty-- what would Beauty like?"
20748But, madam,replied Tom Thumb,"what shall we do?
20748Can you lay eggs?
20748Do you imagine this to be the whole of the world?
20748Do you think it is my brothers?
20748Hansel, why do you stop and look about?
20748Has the Sultan heard of our poverty and sent us these fine things from his own table?
20748How are you feeling today?
20748How could I have been so cruel and wicked and unkind? 20748 Is it not?"
20748Is that all?
20748One moment longer, I beseech you,replied she, and again called softly to her sister:"Sister Ann, do you see anyone coming?"
20748Pray who are you?
20748To whom are we indebted for this feast?
20748Well, and how are you getting on?
20748Well, what news, Cousin Jack?
20748What ails you?
20748What are you crying for?
20748What does it matter?
20748What would you do at the ball, with your rags and tatters and your dirty face? 20748 Where can Aladdin get such basins and jewels and slaves?"
20748Where does your grandmother live?
20748Who are you?
20748Who is there?
20748Who is there?
20748Who is there?
20748Why do n''t you go to work, my lad?
20748Why have you come into our cottage?
20748Why not?
20748Will you come down or not, madam?
20748You do not know?
20748And the Cat said,"Can you set up your back?
20748Are you all here?"
20748Are you not lodged in a warm room, and have you not the advantage of society from which you can learn something?
20748As he lay thinking in his bed one evening, rolling about for trouble, he sighed, and said to his wife,"What will become of us?
20748But no sooner had she begun to rub it than a hideous genie appeared before her, and said in a voice like thunder:"What wouldst thou have of me?
20748But what did he see in the water?
20748Can it be a young turkey- cock?
20748Can you purr?"
20748Did you hear or see anything to disturb you?"
20748Do you think she would take pleasure in swimming and in the waters closing over her head?"
20748Gretel saw what her thoughts were and said,"I do not know how to do it; how shall I get in?"
20748Gretel wept bitterly, and said to Hansel,"What will become of us?"
20748He looked at it attentively, and then said:"How came this blood upon the key?"
20748Her sister instantly did as she was desired, and the terrified lady every minute called out:"Sister Ann, do you see anyone coming?"
20748Here the cook, an ill- tempered woman, called out to poor Dick:"What business have you there, you lazy rogue?
20748How can we feed our children, when we have no more than we can eat ourselves?"
20748How can you bring your heart to leave my children all alone in the wood; for the wild beasts will soon come and tear them to pieces?"
20748How long will this last?
20748Is it you?
20748May I try to do it?"
20748One day she stepped before her mirror, and said:"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
20748Poor Aladdin rose to his feet with eyes full of tears, and said, reproachfully--"Uncle, what have I done that you should treat me so?"
20748Pray, how did you sleep last night?
20748She owned a wonderful mirror, and when she stepped before it and said:"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
20748Snow- White peeped out of the window and said,"Good day, my good woman; what have you to sell?"
20748So he only said:"Good- morning, Little Red Riding- Hood; where are you off to so early?"
20748So you think yourself wiser than the Cat and the old woman, not to speak of myself?
20748Soon after this, the false bride said to her betrothed,"Dearest, will you grant me a favor?"
20748The fifth,"Who has been meddling with my fork?"
20748The fourth,"Who has been at my porridge?"
20748The giant thanked Jack very much for saving him, and asked what he should give him as a reward?
20748The giant, with a voice like thunder, roared out:"Who is there?"
20748The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?"
20748The seventh said,"Who has been drinking out of my mug?"
20748The sixth grumbled out,"Who has been cutting with my knife?"
20748The third said,"Who has been nibbling at my bread?"
20748Then a sweet voice called out in the room,"Tip- tap, tip- tap, who raps at my door?"
20748Then she once more cried out:"Sister Ann, do you see anyone coming?"
20748Then the first, looking round, began again,"Who has been lying on my bed?"
20748Very soon she opened her eyes, and raising the lid of the glass case, she rose up and asked,"Where am I?"
20748When she reached home and consulted her mirror--"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
20748When the Queen now asked her mirror:"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
20748When they awoke it was quite dark, and Gretel began to cry,"How shall we get out of the wood?"
20748Why do n''t you leave them till the morning?
20748Will nothing serve you for breakfast but broiling poor Jack?"
20748Will they not be sweet?"
20748Will you come with us and be a bird of passage?
20748[ Illustration:_ The Ugly Duckling_"What is the Matter?"
20748[ Illustration] The first asked,"Who has been sitting on my chair?"
20748[ Illustration]"Alas,"said Cinderella,"how can I go to the ball?
20748[ Illustration]"What is that funny- looking thing?"
20748[ Illustration]"What is the matter?"
20748are you afraid of it?"
20748cried the Queen,"what comfort will that be to us?
20748do you see no one coming?"
20748said he;"so you thought to cheat me, did you?
20748we do not understand you?
20748where are our poor children?
20748why did you sleep so long in the wood?
27085A million what?
27085All six of you and your balloons, where you going?
27085And now will you answer the second question second-- why do you have two freckles on your chin?
27085And now,he asked his mittens,"shall I take you off or keep you on?
27085And the tin copper cup?
27085And the wooden mug?
27085And where do you go when you get back where you came from?
27085And why do you have a little thimble on the top button of your coat?
27085And will you tell me how they get back to the moon after they slide down the toboggan?
27085Are you going to blow loose the tin brass goat on my roof?
27085Are you going to blow loose the tin brass goose on my roof?
27085But what if you want a hat when you are frying with the frying pan?
27085Did I understand,he said, speaking to Mrs. Bimber, Blixie Bimber''s mother,"do I understand you sent for me to clean the cistern in your back yard?"
27085Do I sniff something or do I not?
27085Do n''t you never get tired?
27085Do n''t you never have no new style hats?
27085Do you know what we got here under our left elbow?
27085Has never the father or mother nor the uncle or aunt nor the kith and kin of Flim the Goose told him the what and the which of this?
27085How are you a millionaire?
27085How did it begin?
27085How do you do it?
27085How do you mean diamond rabbits?
27085How like mascots?
27085I asked them,''Whose place is this?'' 27085 Is there anything I can do?"
27085May I ask you again if you would kindly direct us to the union depot? 27085 One of his feet is bigger than the other-- how can you keep steady company with him?"
27085Sad?
27085So far? 27085 The aluminum dishpan and the galvanized iron washtub-- what are they doing by the side of you on both sides on the sidewalk?"
27085They all watch for me,he said to himself,"I am distinquished-- am I not?"
27085What do you do when the parasols are gone?
27085What do you do?
27085What for?
27085What was it-- what happened?
27085What was your dream of the white moon toboggan?
27085Where is the aluminum dishpan?
27085Where is the galvanized iron washtub?
27085Where you going?
27085Which is this, who are they and why do they come?
27085Who fixes it for the pigs to have bibs on?
27085Who is that away up there in the sky climbing like a bird in the morning?
27085Who told it to you?
27085Who wants fleems?
27085Who-- hoo- hoo? 27085 Why do you go with him for steady company?"
27085Why do you keep steady company with him? 27085 Why do you wear that frying pan on your head?"
27085Why is it so bitter cold weather?
27085Why so?
27085Why?
27085Why?
27085Will he ever come down again back to his own people?
27085After a while they began asking each other in the cool of the evening after they had eggs for breakfast in the morning,"Who''s who?
27085And he said to them,"Tell me why are balloons-- that is what I want you to tell me-- why are balloons?"
27085And they would answer,"Yes, and are the mountains standing yet way out yonder where you come from, Wind?"
27085And what''s the answer?"
27085And you must n''t be surprised if the ticket agent wipes sleep from his eyes and asks,"So far?
27085Early in the night the first baby blue fox said to the second,"Who are the snow ghosts the ghosts of?"
27085Have you ever stood in Illinois or Iowa and watched the late summer wind or the early fall wind running across a big cornfield?
27085How do I know?
27085How do I know?"
27085How much?
27085If we meet a corn fairy how will we know it?"
27085In the morning I said,''Good morning, zizzies, did you have a good sleep last night and pleasant dreams?''
27085It was no time for an honest ragman to be knocking on people''s back doors, saying,"Any rags?"
27085It_ was_ a grand procession, do n''t you think so?
27085On the spoons, what did they have?
27085One said,''I got pumpkins-- what did you get?''
27085So I ask you, will you take care of Poker Face the Baboon and Hot Dog the Tiger?"
27085So early?
27085So early?
27085So soon?"
27085So soon?"
27085The four uncles said to her,"Will you let us ask you two questions, first the first question and second the second question?"
27085Then the uncles asked her the first question first,"Where do you come from?"
27085Who marched in the procession?
27085Who-- who-- who?"
27085Young Leather said to Red Slippers,"What is the best secret we have come across this summer?"
27085[ Illustration: Away off where the sun was coming up, there were people and animals]"Do you ask me because you wish me to tell you?"
27085and the second question second,"Why do you have two freckles on your chin?"
27085any bones?
27085any bones?"
27085any bottles?
27085any bottles?
27085any copper, brass, old shoes all run down and no good to anybody to- day?
27085any old clothes, old coats, pants, vests?
27085any old iron?
27085or else saying"Any rags?
27085or else saying,"Any rags?
19207''What,''said I;''do you mean to say that nobody owns this fine castle?'' 19207 ''Whose castle is this?''
19207A lost half- hour?
19207A lost half- hour?
19207A wedding? 19207 Are there fairer jewels to be found in the whole wide world?"
19207Are we not fortunate in having so beautiful a night for our dinner?
19207Are you a queen, Aunt Jane?
19207Are you still seeking new fairy tales?
19207But how happens it that the Emerald of the Sea is not among them? 19207 Dear love, why do you weep?"
19207Did you discover anything?
19207Did you discover anything?
19207Do n''t you want to buy a dream, young man?
19207Do you think he can help me?
19207Do you think you could eat a little more of something?
19207Have you found the Emerald of the Sea?
19207Have you found the last of the sentence?
19207How comest thou, mortal, to invade my mountain?
19207How many with alarms?
19207How much does a dream cost?
19207How much does a dream cost?
19207If it is not asking too much from a guest, pray how did you happen to find the river of the underworld?
19207Is all well with you, O my people?
19207Is it the Master Mariner''s ship?
19207Not the great elm which towers above all the forest?
19207Oh, where is Phyllida?
19207Part forever? 19207 Poor little bird,"said Marianna, bending down and taking him up in her hands,"why criest thou so mournfully?
19207Pray, what is that little silver fish?
19207Shall we bind all these people and take them aboard?
19207Shall we send Bobo in search of the lost half- hour?
19207Such as draughts?
19207Talisman? 19207 Tell me, what is Phyllida doing?"
19207The Enchanter Dragondel-- who is he?
19207The Witch of the Sands? 19207 Welcome, little Poldo,"said the Giant; and his voice sounded like the wind in the treetops;"what seek you here?"
19207Well, have you found the Emerald of the Sea?
19207What are these?
19207What is the matter, my good woman?
19207What kind of dreams have you?
19207What sayest thou, Ear- o?
19207What sayest thou, Eye- o?
19207What shall we do, doctor?
19207What''s that?
19207What''s that?
19207What, off again?
19207Where are you going now?
19207Where is this emerald to be found?
19207Where''s my piece of strawberry- tart?
19207Will you write them down if I tell you some really new ones?
19207With what are these three charged?
19207You do n''t suppose this castle is enchanted, do you, Aunt Jane?
19207You intend to abandon these helpless creatures?
19207Alas, what are we to do?
19207And even if it were to come, what could it do to save us from these cruel people?"
19207And then Giles would say to Ear- o,"Tell me, what is Phyllida saying?"
19207Answer me, you silly, have you seen a lost temper anywhere?
19207At length she managed to ask in a weak voice,"Have you plenty of other pastries?"
19207But was not the pleasure worth it?
19207Can you not help me?"
19207Dear lady, what can you mean?"
19207Do you not hear the stir in the forest?
19207Do you not see that he is the younger brother of our husbands?
19207Had the fairies all gone away, or locked the doors of Fairyland?
19207Hardly had he done so, when an angry voice cried,"How dare you strike my pet?"
19207Have you ever thought of consulting my old master, the Giant of the North Pole?
19207Have you not seen that everything is fastened to the floor?
19207Lights?
19207Noticing that the youngest son touched no food, she said to him:--"Why do you refuse to taste of the wedding banquet?"
19207Shall I tell you the story?"
19207Suddenly, standing with his forepaws on the coverlet,"Why do you weep, dear master?"
19207The sum of money was enough to keep body and soul together for a few weeks, but what was Isabella to do when the little pittance was gone?
19207They have universally acclaimed it, and who can question the judgment of such a jury?
19207What are you crying about, you silly girl?"
19207What could be the matter?
19207What could he do?
19207What could they mean?
19207What do you mean?"
19207What punishment do you suggest?"
19207What talisman?"
19207What was he to do with Marianna, whose right to the throne was superior even to his nephew''s?
19207What was he to do?
19207What was to become of Phyllida and the people of the plain?
19207What will you have?"
19207Where, where, where were the new stories, and why, why, why did n''t people write them?
19207Who can tell but that he may lead them away from us?
19207Who hath done thee harm?"
19207Who is she and where can I find her?"
19207Would n''t it be wonderful to have a winged page?
19207Would you have me forget?"
19207Would you mind asking, as you go through the world, for news of my little daughter?"
19207Yet who, I ask you, would be housekeeper for a dragon?
19207You have n''t seen a lost reputation lying about here, have you?
19207You know of the emerald?"
21014''Can it be possible?'' 21014 ''How do you know that you can not?''
21014''I will,''answered the boy;''and what then shall I do?'' 21014 ''Then why do you keep looking at them, child?''
21014''What if I were to help you?'' 21014 After whom, my child?"
21014And where do they get gold?
21014And where might you be going to lodge to- night, good man, if I''m not too bold?
21014But if there was a famine all over the world,asked the prince,"what would they do then?"
21014But now there is?
21014But we are to choose what it shall be about?
21014Can I speak to the lady of this castle?
21014Can I then speak with the lord of the castle?
21014Do you expect one to come and look for you? 21014 Does she wish to go into the south?"
21014Good morning, mistress; how have you slept?
21014Good pedlar,said little Hulda,"could you not be so very kind as just to let me have a sight of them?"
21014How do you do, Grasshopper?
21014How so?
21014How so?
21014If the lady says falsely, ca n''t you face her and tell her so? 21014 Is it the precious fruit of some rare tree, or have they whereby they can draw it down from the sky at sunset?"
21014It is well,said the prince;"but in time of drought, if there is no bread in a city, can they make it of gold?"
21014Maybe the young lady would not mind parting with this?
21014Not the pedlar, surely? 21014 Oh, Will, I have had such a frightful dream,"said Kitty, and she began to cry;"we are not going to quarrel and hate each other, are we?"
21014Oh, what is it, sister? 21014 Pays, does he?"
21014She shall have a spinning- wheel,replied the Ouphe;"and is there nothing else, my good host?"
21014Speak, maiden, what reparation do you demand of this culprit, and what shall be his punishment?
21014Then why do n''t you write your diary?
21014Then you are not inclined to help me at all, Fairy? 21014 There is, then, still some hope,"said Hulda, in a happier voice;"but where, dear fairy, have you hidden yourself so long?"
21014Well, young lady,said the cunning pedlar,"how do you find these jewels?
21014What ails these people?
21014What are they?
21014What are you laughing at, Will?
21014What can he be going to do there?
21014What could that noise have been?
21014What do you wish for, my child?
21014What is the matter with you, cousin?
21014What is the matter, my sweet bird?
21014What is the matter?
21014What is thy demand, fine child of the daylight?
21014What shall we do with all this money?
21014What sort of a creature is this?
21014What words are those, my prince?
21014What, mistress, and why not?
21014What, you know my husband, then? 21014 Where am I most likely to see the gnome?"
21014Who did?
21014Who would not like to have a fairy friend? 21014 Why do n''t you look for a wife, then?"
21014Why do n''t you work, or paint, or read, Hatty?
21014Why not, dear child?
21014Why, Will, how could you say it? 21014 Why, then, do they, not break them asunder,"exclaimed the prince,"and fling them away?"
21014Why?
21014Will you buy something, then, of a poor man?
21014You really do want one? 21014 Are, you sure you never use them to fight with?
21014Besides, do n''t you know that he always pays where he lodges, and very handsomely, too?"
21014Did I boast too much of their beauty?"
21014Do I hear you say that you do n''t believe he ever existed?
21014He expected her to say some wonderful thing; but, when at length she did speak, she only said,''Child, are you happy?''
21014How is that quarrelsome Lark who found such a pretty brown mate the other day?"
21014Hulda said:"Yellow leaves, yellow leaves, Whither away?
21014If your spurs are not to fight with,"continued the unkind Fairy,"I should like to know what they_ are_ for?"
21014Is there really nothing that you wish, for you shall certainly have it if there is?"
21014May we both do it?"
21014Nevertheless, who would not be delighted to have such a fine jewel?
21014Oh, what shall I do, dear little bird?
21014Shall I leave it behind me in payment of bed and board?"
21014Shall we tell her, Harriet?
21014Then Hulda said again to the leaves:"Yellow leaves, yellow leaves, Faded and few, What will the spring flowers Matter to you?"
21014Then she said to the wand:"Art thou my own again, and wilt thou serve me?"
21014They had scarcely deposited it in my hand when they both exclaimed in a breath:"And what are we to do now?"
21014What child was ever proof against a story?
21014What had he got by it hitherto?
21014What, then, can I do?
21014Where is my knapsack?
21014Where''s the ring-- my mother''s ring-- which you stole on Midsummer''s day in the castle?"
21014Where''s the ring?
21014Who flings his red cap At the owlets that flap Their white wings in his face as he sits there alone?"
21014Who would have thought she would have wished to deck her green head with opals down there, where there are only a tribe of brown gnomes to see her?
21014Who would not like to work with a magic palette?
21014Why do n''t you drink out of one of our new tumblers, like a gentleman?"
21014cried the poor little mother, reviving;"do you think you can carry them away for me?"
21014exclaimed the little wife;"is the Wood Ouphe in our cottage?
21014perhaps you exclaim,"and pray what might that be?"
21014said Hulda,"did the pedlar steal my mother''s ring-- that old opal ring which I told him I could not let him have?"
21014you are not pretending, just to give us something to do?"
35654And thou--she whispered,"didst thou give thyself to this woman?"
35654And what of thee?
35654Have I grown like her-- in good sooth?
35654Nay,he said,"how should that have been, when I was so much more an- hungered to see quickly the face of my beloved?"
35654What hast thou learned of life in thy far countries?
35654And Flame spoke unto the Old Gray Woman of Shadows, saying,"Gray One, I pray thee, what wouldst thou?"
35654But Queen Ellaline said to him,"Nay, my lord, shall not thou and I return to the castle alone?
35654Dost thou not know?
35654Drawing her close within the shelter of his arms he said,"Thou believest that I love thee as my heart''s blood?"
35654Flame, looking upon the glory that was her face, fell at her feet, crying,"Thou wilt forgive?"
35654Straightway he went to her, saying,"Canst thou not forgive?"
35654Telwyn the King leaned him forward in eagerness, asking,"The Shining One?
35654Then because he was silent a space, as one thinking, she said,"What is it that thou wouldst say to me?"
35654Then did the face of Roseheart grow wistful- sweet, and she asked,"The woman of thy dream-- didst thou find her?"
35654Then spake Ellaline, the Queen, with quiet voice, saying,"What wouldst thou, Flame, son of Lokus?
35654Thou rememberest the Radiant One?"
35654Were it not well that they should walk apart in the forest in the cool of the evening, if that be their wish?"
35654What meanest thou?"
35654Where now is Wur, that thou hast the look of happiness?"
35654[ Sidenote:_ The Finding_] Remembering the pain and struggle of his quest, Flame cried out,"Wherefore did I go from thee?"
30955Am I to stay long, mamma?
30955And the children-- what am I to do for them?
30955And what can I do for you?
30955And what is that, dear Motherkin?
30955And what is the fairy''s name, mamma?
30955And you are willing to make some sacrifice, some unusual effort, to do this?
30955Are you not afraid of his mischievous tricks?
30955Are you sure you wish to befriend those children, Laura?
30955Are you? 30955 But am I to leave them alone to suffer again when that which I carry to them is gone?"
30955But the poor little children-- how can I be of service to them? 30955 But who are you?
30955Come, shall I help you dress? 30955 Do n''t you care for it?"
30955Do you think so, Laura? 30955 Do you think you can cut me a good stout staff for Lady Laura, without any injury to your lame ankle?"
30955How can I? 30955 How could you, dear Motherkin?
30955How did you know anything about my little Fritz?
30955How do I know anything, Miss Rudeness? 30955 How do you know?"
30955I am not keeping you, am I?
30955I have been walking a long way, and am very tired: can you let me rest here for the night?
30955I was in China once, and saw all the men with pigtails-- how do you think I would look with one?
30955I? 30955 If I planted ever so much catnip in its place, what do you call that?"
30955Is she cross? 30955 Lost it again, have you?
30955Now we can get along nicely; but shall we not have more fire and some tea before I tell you my story?
30955Oh, how could you be so wicked?
30955Shall I teach you how to do it?
30955So you are going home, are you?
30955So you call that wicked, do you?
30955They do n''t come off, then?
30955Well, what do you mean, dear Motherkin? 30955 What is it detains you, children?"
30955What is it, mamma?
30955What will you have, child?--brown bread and cheese, good sweet milk, curds, and cream?
30955Which way must I go?
30955Who am I? 30955 Who dresses you, dear?
30955Why are you not out of bed, my child?
30955Why not?--why can not I return with you?
30955Wo n''t you have some?
30955All I ask is for you to go alone: will you, or will you not?"
30955And does the little leg ache to- day?
30955And now suppose I tell you all about these wonderful herbs?"
30955Are you not well?"
30955But do you really want some honey?
30955But how should she explain her naughtiness, her make- believe sickness; and how, above all, should she find her way back?
30955But how will I get the knife now?"
30955But where is little Fritz?"
30955Do I not look well dressed?
30955Do you need assistance?"
30955Do you understand, my Laura?"
30955Even Polly on her perch screamed out,"What''s the matter?
30955How could I relieve her?
30955How could she go alone?
30955How could you let those mosquitoes torment us so?
30955How have you liked being my maid?"
30955I am sure Kathie would like some, and are you too busy to help me find my staff?"
30955I wonder what he wants?
30955Is Grim to go?"
30955Is it ladylike for me to have done so?"
30955Is not the honey so good as it was?"
30955Is she ugly?"
30955Kathie''s eyes also turned in the same direction, and she whispered to Laura,"Is that the Herb Elf, or is it only a rabbit?"
30955Laura looked at one, then at the other: what did it mean?
30955May I go speak to him?
30955Oh, then you must know my good friend Grim?"
30955So you wish you had some honey, do you?"
30955The elf frowned at this, and asked,"Why not?"
30955Think you I have not known how charmingly you have kept house for me?"
30955What could she do alone?
30955What difference is that to you?"
30955What do you want of your staff?
30955What wood shall it be?"
30955Where do you suppose he came from?"
30955Which do you prefer?"
30955Why had they let her come alone on this long journey?
30955Why not dress and get out of the window, underneath which was a shed, and so drop down into the garden?
30955Will you ever come to these woods again?"
30955and how can you ever forgive me for running off as I did?"
30955and where is Polly?
30955and who brushes your beautiful hair?
30955my dear Nannette, how are all the birds?
30955what was that?
30955what''s the matter?"
30955where did I put it?"
30955where is it?"
10463All ready?
10463And have you seen them yourself?
10463And speak without words?
10463And the Snow Witches? 10463 And why do n''t they wash their feet in the fountain?
10463Another world?
10463Are they really witches?
10463Are you cold?
10463But how can they_ help_ seeing it?
10463But why are they afraid of me?
10463But why do they stay?
10463But_ where_ are the sheep?
10463But_ why_ do I want to go on?
10463Come out and play, why do n''t you?
10463Could I play in it, and run and climb? 10463 Did they laugh at me?"
10463Did you find the key to that gate?
10463Did you have a good time with the witches?
10463Do n''t you know? 10463 Eric,--who are you?"
10463Faster?
10463Have you been playing with Blue Water Children?
10463How did you know I wanted to go?
10463I can not look any more,she said;"can you?
10463My poor, dear girl,she said,"how many times must I tell you it is only a dream, that house in the woods and the little girl and boy?
10463Now that we are settled at our work, and nothing to interrupt, what shall it be?
10463Oh, look,cried Ivra excitedly, almost tumbling over the edge in her endeavor to see better,"is n''t that the gray wall off there?"
10463Oh, will you bring her to us right away?
10463Shall we go to meet her?
10463Shall we plant the garden, Helma?
10463Shall we see it? 10463 She must have found the key,--or do you suppose she climbed the gray wall?"
10463To have me for a playmate?
10463Truly, truly? 10463 Truly, truly?"
10463What am I telling you,--one of the secrets of the forest, and you a stranger here? 10463 What are you waving at like that?"
10463What else would they be?
10463What is it like across the sea?
10463What is the matter, little comrade?
10463What is the matter?
10463What shall it be?
10463Where are the Blue Water Children?
10463Why did n''t you come, too?
10463Why did you stay, dear, for nine long years?
10463Why do n''t they sit down on the grass to eat?
10463Why do n''t you go and play with Wild Thyme? 10463 Why does n''t it hop about?"
10463Why_ dare n''t_ she?
10463Will I be a success, too?
10463Will you come then?
10463You do n''t really believe in it, do you?
10463You''ll play with us, wo n''t you?
10463_ How_ dare she?
10463After a while,"Did you notice how pale her face was when she was n''t laughing?"
10463And it fits into the room, do n''t you think?"
10463And were there really witches, and was she playing with them out there in the wild day?
10463And when I got there how could I get back?"
10463And why was n''t it safe for her to be seen in the village?
10463And you will listen, mother, to see that I get it all right?"
10463Are you all here for that?"
10463Are you sure she does n''t, Ivra?"
10463Are you sure?
10463At last he asked,"But how could I ever get across the sea?
10463But Eric said,"May I open the cage door and the window and see the bird flash away?
10463But how did she know about me to ask me too?
10463But if you came without telling, how could she mind?"
10463Can you imagine how it would feel if to- day you were to hear the first story of your life?
10463Come, what shall we play?"
10463Did she ask me?"
10463Did you expect them to do any thing else but bother?
10463Do n''t you feel it?
10463Do n''t_ you_ feel it?"
10463Do you suppose I can, mother Helma?
10463Do you think-- perhaps, to- night they saw our slide shining, and wondered so much about it they had to come down?
10463Had Ivra come into the Witch''s house, Ivra who was so afraid of the Witch?
10463Had they sent him, perhaps, to do a different kind of work that could only be done in the woods?
10463Helma''s gone into the village, has n''t she?
10463How could he ever sleep?
10463How could they play with her?
10463Is it time for it yet?"
10463It was this last one who said,"Hello, who are you?"
10463Oh, ca n''t you tell us where she is?"
10463Oh, what made Wild Star know so much?"
10463Shall we swim in it?
10463The dear Tree Mother undressed me?
10463Want to come, Ivra?
10463What did it mean, that Ivra was part fairy?
10463What fun would there be?"
10463What will become of them?"
10463What would you have done, Ivra?"
10463Who can stop at home in spring- time?
10463Why are the Forest People afraid?"
10463Why ca n''t I wear those, at least when I walk in the garden?"
10463Wild Star said,"Why, we never thought of that,--where_ are_ they?"
10463Would I be as free as in this little old brown smock?"
10463Would she come to him too-- or was he only a stranger?
10463Would you like me to make a pretty cage for you and put you into it?"
10463Would you like that?"
10463asked Eric,"and how can I count them with my eyes shut?"
35126And what would happen to him?
35126How are you?
35126The slaves were horrified and ran away on all sides; the guards stood stupified, but where was the Wood- bug?
35126What did it all mean?
35126What if Tom had made a mistake and Seven Spot had appeared only by chance and had not noticed his King?
35126What kind of a life have you among humans?
35126What was to happen to Chrysomela?
35126Where are you going now?
35126Who among us would then attend to the agricultural work?
35126Who had sent this messenger and who was thinking of him?
35126With them you can live in peace and happiness, and who knows if you might not find among them some one dear to your heart?
35126» Brother, « he said, » what are you doing here and how are you?
35126» Do you remember, « he inquired, » how you helped us build a crossing over the strip of glue on the rose- bush in the garden?
35126» When are we going to clear up? « he inquired.
35126» Where do you wish to sleep? « They tried to explain to him that they did not sleep during the winter.
35126» Why should I not know her?
35126» You are my neighbor and do not know it? « she asked incredulously.
30973And, pray, what''s the meaning of all this tomfoolery?
30973And, pray, what''s the meaning of all this?
30973Are you afraid?
30973Aye,said the man,"to tell the truth, I never thought of selling him; but if we could strike a bargain perhaps--""What do you want for him?"
30973BLAST YOU BOTH, WHAT DO YOU WANT?
30973But do you know how to settle him? 30973 But what errand can you have in coming hither?"
30973But what''s come over your mother?
30973Can you wash this shirt clean, lassie you?
30973Could n''t it be me, now?
30973Dear mother,said the lad,"may n''t I just go up to the top of this high crag while you rest, and try if I ca n''t see some sign of folk hereabouts?"
30973Do n''t you see we have got amongst_ Trolls_?
30973Do you feel any change?
30973Do you think I''ll do any such thing?
30973Do you think now you''re fit to show yourself before folk,said the skipper,"why, you''ve no clothes but those rags you stand in?"
30973Have you got it still?
30973Have you got your big cat with you still?
30973Have you made them yourself?
30973Heaven preserve both you and me, what do you want here?
30973How can you be so silly as to believe any such thing?
30973How did you come to know about him?
30973How now,said the king;"have you got the golden apple?
30973How shall I know your children?
30973I''m sure I ca n''t tell how to put this lad out of the way-- he is so awfully strong; ca n''t you think of some way?
30973If it''s not for sale for gold or money, what is it that you will sell it for? 30973 Is it true what you say, that you can make such checkers as my daughters want?"
30973Maybe it''s you who ought to have had the_ Prince_?
30973Might she see it?
30973My dear woman, how can you?
30973Nay, nay,called out the_ Princess_,"dare Christian folk come hither?
30973Now, do n''t you see? 30973 Now,"she cried,"what shall I do with such a wretch as you?
30973Oh yes; how can I help believing it, when you say it?
30973Oh?
30973So, so; it''s you, is it?
30973THOU MOON, THOU MOON,she screamed,"canst thou tell me the way to_ Soria Moria Castle_?"
30973Those gold checkers, which the_ Princesses_ had in the blue mountain,said the soldier;"but you''ll want something to eat first, I suppose?
30973WHO''S THAT tramping over my bridge?
30973WHO''S THAT tripping over my bridge?
30973Well, has it lain still?
30973What are they like?
30973What are you after now again?
30973What do you want for your gold apple, you lassie?
30973What do you want here?
30973What does our master want to- day?
30973What have you done?
30973What is the matter with you?
30973What shall we do now?
30973What thing is that?
30973What''s all this?
30973What''s the good?
30973What''s the name of this land?
30973Where are they?
30973Where are you going?
30973Where are you going?
30973Whither away?
30973Whither away?
30973Whither away?
30973Whither away?
30973Who is most worthy to have one of us,she said,"he that has set us free, or he that here sits by me as bridegroom?"
30973Who''s that tripping over my bridge?
30973Who? 30973 Why do you stand here fighting for ever and a day?
30973Why, where in all the world did you come from?
30973Will you come and serve me?
30973Will you give me your youngest daughter? 30973 --Ah, how can you?"
30973And the_ King_ came one day and said to him,"Will you give me your daughter to marry my son the_ Lindworm_?
30973But she was very woeful, and said to him:"Why did you not mind what I told you; and why did you not listen to what your father said?
30973Canst thou tell me the way to_ Soria Moria Castle_?
30973Do n''t you see that bright light?"
30973Do n''t you see that we are close to a house?
30973Have you got a knife?"
30973I?"
30973If one can not have peace when one is in bed, whoever would be an apprentice here?"
30973Is that what you''re thinking of?"
30973She said,"Why do you look so doleful, pretty lady?"
30973So when they asked him he said:"Know it?
30973So, when they had gone a bit of the way, the_ White Bear_ said:"Are you afraid?"
30973That''s she, is it?"
30973Then the Princesses asked him what he lacked, and if he did n''t like to live with them any longer?
30973WHAT DO YOU WANT?"
30973When he got home, his brothers laughed and asked how he had fared?
30973Who could it be but the_ Princess_?
30973asked the old hag;"but maybe you are the lassie who ought to have had him?"
30973but it is you after all,_ Halvor_?"
30973can you see anything now?"
30973can you see anything?"
30973said his brothers,"you would, would you?
30973said the lad to himself,"it''s you, is it, that comes here eating up our hay?
30973said the_ Snipe_,"why did you shoot my children after all?"
30973said the_ Snipe_;"do n''t you know that each one thinks his own children the prettiest in the world?"
30973said_ Boots_ to himself;"it''s you that gobbles up our hay, is it?
30973she called out,"dare Christian folk come hither?
30973thought the lad;"it''s you, is it, that eats up our hay?
30973what are Christian people doing here?"
30973what do you want?"
30973whence have you come?"
32226Am I no prince?
32226And shall I see you among the maidens of the Princess when I present myself before her?
32226And what has our Prince of Wanderers chosen?
32226And you, Sea- child, want some one to love you? 32226 Ay, why not?
32226But you will come again to the garden?
32226Do you not know that this is the garden of a Princess, who allows no one to visit it between dusk and the third hour after sunrise?
32226Gil, Gil, tell me how this can be?
32226Gil, what do you mean?
32226How now, must I return to the dungeon as a criminal?
32226How should one not be kind and love them dearly? 32226 How well does Joyeuse know the heart of Fleurette?"
32226How would you like a change?
32226Must all their practice be wasted?
32226O Wise Man, if a princess gave him these titles, is he indeed a prince?
32226Perhaps it was the Holy Child Himself, who knows? 32226 Say, may I not then hope to be the doctor of the Princess?"
32226Then I need not go back to that other home,said Jan,"that home where I am hated?"
32226Then shall I never see him again, wise Bird?
32226Then to- morrow you will come? 32226 Was he so happy, then, in his sea- home?
32226What dost thou hear, old dog?
32226What have you to say in reply to this Prince''s word?
32226What is a change?
32226What is a lesson?
32226What is it? 32226 What is the matter, little one?"
32226What was that?
32226Which one of them has her heart? 32226 Whom have we here, good Gardener?"
32226Why not? 32226 Why was it not a fair race, brother?"
32226Will you go home to your sea- mother, the beautiful Mermaid?
32226Would she be so very angry?
32226Would you make a good brother to him?
32226You are lonely, old fellow, are you not?
32226You are then of another country? 32226 You know where he is?
32226You, land- boy Gil,he said,"you want a little brother, do you not?"
32226And for that matter, pretty maiden, are not you, too, a trespasser at this early hour?
32226And when he had finished he said,--"Well, dear maiden, do you think I am worthy to be your lady''s minstrel?
32226And you first, Prince Fortemain-- how have you selected?
32226Are you often so kind to poor lost birds?"
32226Are you without there?"
32226But Gil soon decided to follow him and see what would happen, for who could tell what the Stork''s mysterious words might mean?
32226But how do you know, little Stranger?
32226But tell me now, how do you come here, dear boy?
32226But tell me, dear Stork, will he not be my own little Sea- child again?
32226But why would He not enter?
32226Did you love him and care for him very dearly?"
32226Did you set a sheaf of wheat for the birds on Christmas Eve?"
32226Does not that make me a prince indeed?"
32226For what was he bred a snow- dog upon the mountains if a storm like this be danger to him?
32226Gil, Gil, what could it have been?
32226Gil, could it have been a Mermaid who touched me and seemed to pull me down as if to keep me under the water forever?
32226Had she not thrice called him a Prince?
32226Have I not guessed aright?"
32226Have I the skill to make her happy?"
32226Have you found the flower of my heart?
32226Have you guessed my secret choice, and are you therefore to be my very ownest Prince?"
32226He would throw his arm about his brother''s shoulder, saying,--"What strange thing is it, brother, that the old sea does to me?
32226Her favorite flower-- was it not the morning- glory?
32226How came you here?"
32226How did you see?"
32226Meantime what had become of the Sea- baby''s forgotten mother?
32226My real home is not upon the shore?"
32226Oh, is he unhappy?"
32226Oh, what shall I do?
32226Promise that you will be here to- morrow morning early, to play with me for a little while?"
32226Tell me what you think it means?"
32226Tell me, dear Stork, is he not indeed my own?"
32226Tell me, is it not so?"
32226The Princess looked long at Joyeuse, and at last she said:"How do I know what manner of minstrel you are?
32226The church would be closed and the Curé gone home before Pierre could reach it; and then what should he do?
32226What did he care about anything now, since Gil hated him so much that he could tell that story?
32226What did she mean?"
32226What do you mean?"
32226What is the matter?"
32226What use to sigh for that which can not be?
32226What was the pretty Mermaid doing in her home under the waves?
32226What was to be done?
32226Where are all the Christmas candle- lights?
32226Who is there?"
32226Who knows but that Prince at home happily guarding Pierre''s snow- wet old shoes-- who knows but that Prince was dreaming the happiest dream of all?
32226Why are you not in that happy home this stormy night, once more making the Lord''s creatures happy?"
32226Why did you open the door, Bettine?"
32226Why had they never thought of this before?
32226Why, Josef?
32226Why-- has the little Stranger come once more?"
32226Will you be so good as to come with me?"
32226Would that please you, little flower?"
32226You are soon to go away?"
32226You are the same who tossed a bone to the limping dog and made him a bed in the stable?
32226You set the sheaf of wheat for the snowbirds, and they lighted upon your hands and shoulders and kissed your lips in gratitude?
32226You stroked the noses of the ox and the ass and said gentle things to them, because they were the first friends of the little Jesus?
32226You will bring him back to me?
32226[ Illustration: UNTIL HELP COMES]"Whither, oh, whither?"
32226[ Illustration: YOU WILL BRING HIM BACK TO ME?]
32226they said,"we shall have two little Blowers in the family,--perhaps a flute and a trombone; perhaps a cornet and a fife,--who knows?"
31431''Alas, dear friend,''said the queen,''who would not be so?
31431''And what must I do to soften your heart?''
31431''Beauty,''said the monster to her,''may I watch you have your supper?''
31431''Do you hear that?''
31431''Do you refuse to come down?''
31431''Do you think I have come here just to get you a drink?''
31431''Does she live far away?''
31431''How can I ever repay you, my gallant deliverer?''
31431''How can that be done?''
31431''How comes it,''he said to her,''that the key of the little room is not with the others?''
31431''How do you know that?''
31431''How will you manage that?''
31431''I suppose you think I brought a silver flagon here specially for that purpose-- it''s so likely, is n''t it?
31431''If the King of the Peacocks is himself a peacock,''said the king to his brother,''how can our sister dream of marrying him?
31431''Impossible?''
31431''Is it my brothers?''
31431''Is it you, dear prince?''
31431''Is our vessel doing a dance upon the water?''
31431''Is that all?''
31431''Is that all?''
31431''Is this castle also yours, marquis?
31431''My dear sister,''he said,''where do you suppose that we are to find the King of the Peacocks?''
31431''My sister is old enough now to marry, Sire,''he said;''shall we not soon be celebrating her wedding?''
31431''Oh, yes, but am I to go like this in my ugly clothes?''
31431''Shall we remain here long?''
31431''Well, mother?''
31431''Well,''said he;''did her brothers speak the truth?
31431''What are we to do, my child?''
31431''What are you doing, my good woman?''
31431''What do you seek to do to me?''
31431''What do you want to do it now for?''
31431''What is there worse that could happen to us?''
31431''What possessed me,''she cried,''to think that I could manage such wild and fiery steeds?
31431''What''s the matter with you all?''
31431''What''s this I have done?''
31431''What''s this?''
31431''What?''
31431''Why is there blood on this key?''
31431''Why should I lament my father''s death?
31431''Why should this chit be happier than we are?''
31431''You accept?''
31431''You are welcome,''he said;''what do you want of me?''
31431''You do not know at all?''
31431A little later she asked again:''Tell me, tell me, are we near it now?''
31431And at the same moment she cried in a whisper:''Anne, Sister Anne, do you see nothing coming?''
31431Are you dissatisfied with my breeding, my brains, my disposition, or my manners?''
31431Are you satisfied?''
31431Behold, then, the royal pair upon their travels, asking of all whom they met:''Do you know the King of the Peacocks?''
31431Bring me something to eat at once, do you hear?
31431But how is it that you are here, my friendly little Frog?''
31431But how was he to reach them?
31431But she nearly died of fright when he put this question to her:''Beauty, will you be my wife?''
31431But then, how do I know that you will not bestow on some one else the heartfelt love which once belonged to me?
31431Could I not manage to see her?
31431Have you not heard that this is the house of an ogre who eats little children?''
31431Her skin, though white and beautiful, had become a little tough, and what animal could he possibly find that would correspond to her?
31431Is it his fault that he is so ugly, and has so few wits?
31431Is it possible you can consent to such cruelty?
31431Is it reasonable that people who have sense should be treated worse than those who have none?
31431Is she more beautiful than her portrait?''
31431Once more she asked:''Tell me, tell me, are we near it now?''
31431Once more she cried:''Anne, Sister Anne, do you see nothing coming?''
31431Presently the nurse said to the boatman:''Tell me, tell me, are we near the Land of Peacocks?''
31431Said her godmother, who was a fairy:''You would like to go to the ball, would you not?''
31431Tell me, now, do you not consider me very ugly?''
31431The moment her mother caught sight of her coming back she cried out,''Well, daughter?''
31431Then she called:''Anne, Sister Anne, do you see nothing coming?''
31431To whom can I talk in this solitude?
31431To whom can I unburden my grief?
31431What are they doing now in that forest?
31431What does this mean, dear daughter?''
31431What has brought this unhappy fate upon us?''
31431What have I done that the king should exile me?
31431What would the king do if he knew of my great peril?
31431Where am I to find them?
31431While she was thus occupied they said:''Cinderella, would you not like to go to the ball?''
31431Why did I not wish to marry him?
31431Why give me help in that dismal place and refuse it to me here?
31431With the exception of my ugliness, is there anything about me which displeases you?
31431Would n''t you like to be able to do the same?
31431Would you maintain that for a moment-- you, who so markedly have sense, and desired so ardently to have it?
31431You must be joking to talk of hanging us-- of what have we robbed you?''
31431[ Illustration:''_ Puss became a personage of great importance_'']''What''s that?''
31431[ Illustration:_ The Friendly Frog_]''By what magic are you endowed with speech, little Frog?''
31431_ Toc Toc._''Who is there?''
31431_ Toc Toc._''Who is there?''
31431answered little Tom Thumb, trembling like all the rest of his brothers,''what shall we do?
31431cried her mother;''did I see pearls and diamonds dropping out of your mouth?
31431cried her mother;''what do I see?
31431cried the wood- cutter''s wife, bursting into tears,''where are now my children, my poor children?''
31431cried the wood- cutter''s wife,''do you mean to say you are capable of letting your own children be lost?''
31431each demanded of the other;''are we not much nicer than she is?''
31431he cried;''have those two dastardly prisoners the impudence to mock me thus, and propose that I should we d such a loathsome creature as that?
31431rejoined the princess;''how do you do it?
31431replied the queen;''and what people are they whom you see here?
31431said the queen;''but is there no means by which the elder, who is so beautiful, can be endowed with some intelligence?''
31431she asked;''what do you want of me?''
31431she cried,''what have I done that you should keep me here?
31431she cried;''a bird so beautiful as that to be killed and eaten?
31431she cried;''what are you doing here?
31431she demanded;''have you all gone to sleep?
31431she said;''will it not be time enough to- morrow?''
31431she would ask;''are we never to escape from misery?''
31431where are our poor children now?''
17860Why not indeed?
17860''Am I not dearer to you than any of them?''
17860''And you have done nothing else?''
17860''Are they not driven out?''
17860''Are we in the Garden of Paradise now?''
17860''Are you still cold?''
17860''But ca n''t you give little Gerda something to take which will give her power to conquer it all?''
17860''But if you take my voice,''said the little mermaid,''what have I left?''
17860''But the crow?''
17860''But what is the meaning of this?''
17860''Can I stay here always?''
17860''Can the Snow Queen come in here?''
17860''Do n''t the clothes fit well?''
17860''Do you have that knife by you while you are asleep?''
17860''Do you hear the drum?
17860''Do you remember that?''
17860''Do you see how cleverly they are made?''
17860''Do you think he is dead and gone?''
17860''Do you want to go into the bag?''
17860''Does he live with a Princess?''
17860''Have they a queen bee, too?''
17860''I say,''said the Prince,''just tell me who is this Princess, and where is the Garden of Paradise?''
17860''Ida and Ana Dorothea walked one on each side of him: Johanna turned round in the gateway, but what was the good of that?
17860''If men are not drowned,''asked the little mermaid,''do they live for ever?
17860''Is it Kay you mean?''
17860''Is it possible?''
17860''Is it true that you have taken my little playfellow?
17860''Is not this a beautiful piece of stuff?''
17860''Is that the little Zephyr?''
17860''It is you,''said the prince,''you who saved me when I lay almost lifeless on the beach?''
17860''It''s easy enough to talk,''said the crow;''but how are we to manage it?
17860''Oh, have you come from that quarter?''
17860''Shall I sing again to the emperor?''
17860''That I will,''said the Eastwind,''But why have you put my brother from the south into the bag?
17860''The fiery steeds in the stable, where were they?
17860''The nightingale?
17860''To whom am I coming?''
17860''What are you doing, Kay?''
17860''What are you saying up there?''
17860''What did you do there?''
17860''What does the convolvulus say?''
17860''What have I done?''
17860''What is this?''
17860''What, do you really think you have?''
17860''Where do you come from?''
17860''Where was the Snow Queen going?
17860''Who are your sons?''
17860''Why do you cry?''
17860''Why have we no immortal souls?''
17860''Would you like your liberty?''
17860''You are not frightened of the sea, I suppose, my dumb child?''
17860''You poor little child,''said the old woman,''how ever were you driven out on this big, strong river into the wide, wide world alone?''
17860Am I a fool?
17860Am I not fit for my post?
17860Am I not fit to be Emperor?
17860And what said the Tiger lilies?
17860And where have I been?''
17860But where was it to be found?
17860But with all his wisdom the shipbuilder was only a poor bird, and what business has a sparrow in a crane''s nest?
17860Do n''t you know where he is?''
17860Do n''t you see how both man and beast have to serve her?
17860Do n''t you see how great it is?
17860Do the flames of the heart die in the fire?''
17860Do these dancing maidens sleep, or are they dead?
17860Do they not die as we do down here in the sea?''
17860Do you hear the wind down there, howling in the open doorway like a watchman winding his horn?
17860Do you know anything about it?''
17860Do you know where Lapland is?''
17860Do you see how the wind chases the white fleecy clouds as if they were a flock of sheep?
17860Do you see that wall of rock and the great cavern where the wild vine hangs like a big curtain?
17860Do you see those four sacks hanging on the wall?
17860Do you understand?''
17860Her silken robes rustle softly as she bends over and says,''Will he never come?''''
17860How can I ever repay you?''
17860How did you get into the cave of the winds?''
17860How she has got on as well as she has on her bare feet?
17860Imagine my having to discover this from a book?''
17860Is there nothing I can do to gain an immortal soul?''
17860Is there such a bird in my kingdom, and in my own garden into the bargain, and I have never heard of it?
17860Oh, is little Kay really dead?
17860Oh, wo n''t you take me to the Palace?''
17860She said,''Oh heavens, the nightingale?
17860She saw Kay, and knew him at once; she flung her arms round his neck, held him fast, and cried,''Kay, little Kay, have I found you at last?''
17860The cattle, the land, the castle itself?
17860The emperor jumped out of bed and sent for his private physicians, but what good could they do?
17860The old gold and silver plate in cupboard and chest, where was that?
17860Was she thinking of his daughters?
17860Was she thinking of that song?
17860Were these palm trees or giant water plants growing here?
17860What did it say?
17860What happened to Waldemar Daa?
17860What happened to his daughters?
17860What said the little snowdrop?
17860What says the hyacinth?
17860What song could the buttercup sing?
17860What sort of a feeble creature are you?
17860What were they looking at there?
17860What would her noble husband look like?
17860Where could he be?
17860Where would Johanna''s portrait one day hang on these walls?
17860Why did Adam eat the forbidden fruit?
17860Why have I never been told anything about it?''
17860Wo n''t you give the little girl a drink, so that she may have the strength of twelve men to overcome the Snow Queen?''
17860You know all about them I suppose from your Bible stories?''
17860[ Illustration:_''Is it possible?''
17860asked Gerda;''when did he come?
17860do you not see the rosy streak in the sky?
17860have you lost courage?
17860said Gerda,''are there no roses here?''
17860said little Gerda, and then she went to the other flowers and looked into their cups and said,''Do you know where Kay is?''
17860said the Princess,''or would you prefer permanent posts about the court as court crows, with perquisites from the kitchen?''
17860was he amongst the crowd?''
17860where have you been for such a long time?

33931A Vilein captured a Folet( fairy or brownie?)
33931Ah, les voilà, dit- il nos gaillards?
33931And, if we may draw that conclusion, where is this particular moral most likely to have been invented, and enforced in an apologue?
33931Are the variations the result of literary caprice and choice?
33931Are the_ popular_ versions derived from literature, or from oral tradition?
33931But where was the novel first invented?
33931But''Anne, ma soeur Anne, ne vois- tu rien venir?''
33931Cendrillon sourit& leur dit, elle estoit donc bien belle?
33931Comme quoi, dirent- ils?
33931Comment cela se peut- il faire?
33931Demeure- t''elle bien loin, lui dit le Loup?
33931Did the various authors borrow little but the main conception-- the wasted wishes?

33931En les coëffant, elles luy disoient, Cendrillon, serois- tu bien aise d''aller au Bal?
33931Hors de propos?
33931How are we to account for this metamorphosis of the story in the_ Pantschatantra_?
33931How did the fairy tales get presented at Court, and thence win their way, thanks to Perrault, into the classical literature of France?
33931If a lady is only_ belle à la chandelle_, what has the Dawn to do with that?
33931If it was, did the change come in the Latin handling of it, or in the English?
33931Impossible?
33931Is the alteration a piece of Arabian humour?
33931Is the oldest literary version, that of the_ Pantschatantra_, more akin to the_ original_ version than some of the others which meet us later?
33931Is the sun the candle- light, and is the Prince also the sun?
33931Is there, indeed, any reason at all for supposing that so simple a notion was invented, once for all, in India?
33931La Barbe bleuë l''ayant considerée, dit à sa femme, pourquoy y a- t- il du sang sur cette clef?

33931May we conclude, then, that_ Puss in Boots_ was originally invented as a kind of parable by which this moral might be inculcated?

33931c''est pour mieux courir mon enfant: ma mere- grand que vous avez de grandes oreilles?
33931c''est pour mieux t''embrasser, ma fille: ma mere- grand que vous avez de grandes jambes?
33931mes pauvres enfans, où estes vous venus?
33931où sont maintenant mes enfans, mes pauvres enfans?
33931que cela est joli, reprit la Princesse, comment faites- vous?
33931s''écria la Bucheronne, pourrois- tu bien toy- même mener perdre tes enfans?
27467And how far is it to that kingdom?
27467And what,says he,"shall I now do for my poor mother?"
27467Are you all here?
27467But where shall I find the birds?
27467Did you do well?
27467Did you hear what was said here just now? 27467 Did you not see any travelers pass by, my venerable man?"
27467Did you sell her well, Jack?
27467Did you sell her well?
27467Does he want to mock me? 27467 Have you heard it?
27467Here I am,said Knight Invisible,"what do you wish me to do for you?
27467How can I be joyful?
27467How could the birds work for you while you stood there blowing that terrible whistle? 27467 How do you suppose my great- great- grandmother could lose her slumber- pin in the stables?
27467How much did you get for her?
27467How much did you get for her?
27467How much did you get for her?
27467Is it really so?
27467Is that hard to guess?
27467It is true you did recognize Princess Mary, but how did you guess it? 27467 Jack,"said he,"I am glad to see you; how would you like to have these animals?"
27467Jack,says he,"how would you like to be master of all these animals?"
27467Now,said the soldier,"do you see that large stone upon the mountain top?
27467Oh, what have I neglected to do?
27467Shall I steal your clothes and run away, as you tried to do to- day?
27467So, Prince Ivan, what are you going to do now?
27467Well, then,says the man,"how will you and me make a bargain about them?"
27467What am I to do then?
27467What are you afraid of, dear princess? 27467 What are you fighting for?"
27467What are you trying to do, Prince of Erin?
27467What can I do? 27467 What do you mean?"
27467What have you decided to do?
27467What have you done?
27467What heads are these?
27467What is the matter?
27467What will I have to do?
27467What will I have to do?
27467What will I have to do?
27467What will you give me for it?
27467What will you wager to- day?
27467Where do you suppose? 27467 Where,"he asked,"were you living when you saw it?"
27467Who are you?
27467Who are you?
27467Who are you?
27467Who saw it collapsing?
27467Who thatched that roof?
27467Who woke me up?
27467Why are you so sad again, my dear Prince Ivan?
27467Why can not you?
27467Why did you bring me to life again? 27467 Why do you sit whistling instead of working?"
27467Am I a shoemaker?
27467And now what happened?
27467And so he cried out:"What is this I feel inside me Knocking hard against my bones?
27467And the thought struck him:"If this earth should be destroyed, what would become of me?"
27467And there what did she see but her own mother''s long leather bag of gold and silver?
27467And there what did she see but her own mother''s long leather bag of gold and silver?
27467Are n''t you happy here?"
27467Are we not now bride and bridegroom?
27467But I suppose you heard what was said there?
27467Ca n''t you tell me how to find my beautiful princess?"
27467For as I was lying beneath the shade of a palm sapling at the foot of a vilva tree, methought,''If this earth should break up, where shall I go?''
27467Have you heard it?
27467He asked himself in surprise,"How did I come here?
27467He is immortal, but does this give him a right to treat me so badly?"
27467Now do this for me: give my regards to your father, King Longbeard, and ask him whether it is not time for him to pay his debt?
27467Said the hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
27467Said the hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
27467Said the hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
27467Said the lime- kiln:"Do you think I have nothing to do only watch your maids for you?
27467She thought,"Where could my husband have gone?
27467So the Bodhisatta asked,"Is it true, sir, that the earth is breaking up?"
27467Tell me, please, where to find my princess?"
27467The cloud was amazed at the sight, and cried in wonder:"Is the rock, then, mightier than I?
27467The cow said:"Do you think I have nothing to do only watch your maids for you?
27467The goat said:"Do you think I have nothing to do only watch your maids for you?
27467The horse said:"Do you think I have nothing to do only watch your maids for you?
27467The king thought,"What could that be that I have and do not know about?
27467The old fairy asked him angrily,"Where were you until now?
27467The other hare cried,"Pray, sir, what is it?"
27467The prince did not let her wait, but put the gown upon the grass and suddenly what did he see?
27467The prince looked around and what did he see?
27467The sheep said:"Do you think I have nothing to do only watch your maids for you?
27467The young prince asked,"Why so?"
27467Then he cried in his wrath:"Is a mere child of earth mightier than a rock?
27467What happened?
27467What is going to happen to him?
27467What should he do?
27467What was the matter?
27467What will you wager that you can beat me playing?"
27467Where, where?"
27467Which of the two keys should be kept, the old one or the new one?"
27467Who brought me hither?"
27467Why are you so sad?"
27467cried she, and said,"O you, my raging winds, you blow all over the world; have you seen anywhere the beautiful princess?"
27467says she,"what do you mean?"
27467says she,"what have you done?"
27467thought she,"can it be that my poor children that he devoured for his evening meal are still alive?"
31103And what didst thou then see?
31103Are those little duck children that are swimming there?
31103But_ what did_ you see? 31103 Did I not say so?"
31103Do n''t you know me? 31103 Do n''t you see that they are feathers, living stuff for clothing such as I wear, and such as you will wear also?
31103Do you demand nothing else?
31103Do you hear the cock crow, Tukey? 31103 Do you know who lived in our opposite neighbor''s house?"
31103Do you not think that I shall save him?
31103Do you see how she swallows the peas? 31103 Do you see the cropper pigeon?"
31103Do you seek my hand?
31103Hast thou not seen Death go past with my little child?
31103Have you got an appointment here in town?
31103Have you never thought of being betrothed?
31103How canst thou talk so?
31103How couldst thou come quicker than I?
31103How did it look in the furthest saloon?
31103How goes it?
31103How hast thou been able to find thy way hither?
31103How have you been able to find the way hither? 31103 If I be only not re- cast,"said the lamp;"or can you then assure me my memory?"
31103Is there no better-- is there no better?
31103May I take the liberty to inquire if you are of gold?
31103Nay, is it really thou?
31103Of what use are all my abilities when there is no wax candle?
31103Tell me if you still sing on Sundays? 31103 Was it there as in the fresh woods?
31103Were they, then, of noble birth?
31103What do you give?
31103What have you got there?
31103What is that?
31103What little brown creatures are those running about amongst us?
31103What of?
31103Where can our mother be? 31103 Where do you live?"
31103Where is the house?
31103Where shall I find Death, who took away my little child?
31103Where the nest? 31103 Which of them is Misfortune''s flower?
31103Whom have I the honor of speaking to?
31103Yes; but what do you think it is?
31103You are a merry fellow,said the old man;"what''s your name?"
31103You are, no doubt, a diamond?
31103You can not answer these questions?
31103------"What was that?"
31103Am I not right, then, in saying that you owe him your thanks?
31103And do you know, too, my little friends, that you are very excellent critics?
31103And the executioner said,"Thou dost not know who I am, I fancy?
31103And there is no one who participates in this delight more than-- whom do you think?
31103And who lived there?
31103As the daughter of a king, she needed not to stand upon trifles, so she said,"Your complaint is, that you can not cast a shadow?"
31103But have you not thought of it?--where shall we get a wife for him?
31103But what can that be?
31103Can you comprehend it?
31103Can you not understand that?"
31103Children''s hearts can also beat; go after yours, perhaps you may know your child''s; but what will you give me if I tell you what you shall do more?"
31103Did all the gods of the olden times pass through the large saloons?
31103Did sweet children play there, and relate their dreams?"
31103Did the old heroes combat there?
31103Do you not know your old shadow?
31103Do you not see that person who always goes with me?
31103Do you not think that there are some of our species at a great distance in the interior of the burdock forest?"
31103Has he not been creeping up that stalk these three days?
31103Have you heard the story about the old street lamp?
31103However,''tis a curious human nest that we have here; and what have they put up there?
31103I am in the most brilliant circumstances, but there came a sort of desire over me to see you once more before you die; you will die, I suppose?
31103I know you have got another shadow again; have I anything to pay to it or you?
31103Is it the last evening I shall meet you here?
31103It can not surely be a trick of hers by which she means to tell us that we are now to provide for ourselves?
31103May I not ask your name?"
31103Nay, how lonely the old man is!--do you think that he gets kisses?
31103Now the old lady was sick, and it was said she could not recover?
31103Shall I purchase my freedom from service?
31103She has left us the house as an inheritance; but to which of us is it exclusively to belong, when we ourselves have families''?"
31103The children''s names were Charles and Gustave( Augusta?)
31103The next day-- yes, the next day we will spring over: the next evening the lamp lay in the arm chair,--and where?
31103The other roses looked after their sister, and asked each other,"Whither is she going?"
31103Then the mother screamed with terror,"Which of them was my child?
31103There is more done for us than for all other creatures, sure enough; but can you not see that we are folks of quality in the world?
31103Was it there as in a holy church?
31103Were the saloons like the starlit firmament when we stand on the high mountains?"
31103What became of him?
31103What is that?"
31103What was the meaning of''the beautiful?''"
31103When she left home she had slippers on, it is true; but what was the good of that?
31103Where shall I find my little child?"
31103Where was the actual entrance?
31103Yes, and whither?
31103and which is that of Happiness?"
31103and who has helped you?"
31103art thou going?"
31103but looked with her mild eyes at the little boy, who directly asked the old man,"Where did you get her?"
31103exclaimed the herring''s head;"did not a star fall right down?
31103how comes this in the room of the mansion?
31103said Creep- and- Crawl,"Can one not get them to live in peace and quiet, and each mind his own business?"
31103said the learned man:"what is the meaning of all this?"
31103said the learned man;"what debt is there to talk about?
31103said the old folks;"has she a house?"
31103said the princess, as the shadow came into her chamber;"has anything happened?
31103said the princess;"but he is confined, is he not?"
31103what was that?
31103will you give this to the old man over the way from me?
31103will you go with me, as shadow?
1087Are you Baartock''s mother?
1087Are you all right, Baartock? 1087 Are you hurt?"
1087Are you lost? 1087 Are you ready to go to school, Baartock?"
1087Aw, Mr. Barnes, do I have to?
1087Baartock, did you give these to the cashier?
1087Baartock, just how far is your home?
1087Baartock, will you please show us the way to your home?
1087Baartock,said Mrs. Jackson,"why do n''t you show Mr. Fennis around?
1087Baartock? 1087 But how does it work?"
1087But if you never get sick,asked the nurse,"how do you know about being sick?"
1087Can I have a bite?
1087Can we look at the house first, Baartock?
1087Can we use the driveway instead, Baartock?
1087Could he live out here in the woods?
1087Do n''t you like it?
1087Do you need some help with the pencil sharpener?
1087Does this really work?
1087Go home now?
1087Go see Mississtog- Buchnersklass? 1087 Have you enrolled Baartock in school?"
1087How do you like school?
1087If you''re not going to eat it, can I have it?
1087Is it recess time already? 1087 Is there anything you''d like to see?"
1087Is today your first day?
1087Is your mother home now?
1087Making friends already, Baartock? 1087 Mr. Fennis, do you think he''s lost?"
1087Mrs. Stogbuchner, can I have Baartock now?
1087Mrs. Stogbuchner, can we get out the games?
1087My cubby?
1087Not go home now?
1087Not go outside?
1087Not safe?
1087Now, what can I do for you?
1087Ready to go home, Baartock?
1087This say my box?
1087Want to go to the playground?
1087We never have any trouble on this bus, do we?
1087Well then, what can I call you?
1087Well, Baartock,said Mrs. Jackson,"shall we go to school now?"
1087What are you eating?
1087What happen bridge?
1087What showandtell?
1087What you call this?
1087What''s dodge ball?
1087What''s money?
1087What''s the matter? 1087 What''s the matter?"
1087What''s the matter?
1087What''s this?
1087What''s your name?
1087What? 1087 What?"
1087Where bridge?
1087Where bridge?
1087Where bridge?
1087Where cubby?
1087Where fire?
1087Where she?
1087Where''s your lunch money, dear?
1087Which way do you live?
1087Who you?
1087Will you show the class how it works?
1087Will you tell me what you brought?
1087Yes, Baartock, what do you need?
1087Yes, Baartock?
1087You can build a new bridge?
1087You can drill through stone like that?
1087You do n''t like it? 1087 You give me?"
1087You mean he really did build it?
1087You show me bridge now?
1087You want to play checkers?
1087You want to talk?
1087You''re taking your pencil box home?
1087You''ve been waiting for a school bus all this time?
1087You''ve never played dodge ball?
1087Your dad knows about bridges?
1087After they were gone, Jason asked,"You really eat that?"
1087Are n''t they supposed to be mean?
1087Are n''t they supposed to eat people?"
1087Are n''t you getting hungry?"
1087Are those your folks?
1087Are you going to be on my bus?"
1087Are you new?"
1087Baartock started to ask Jason,"What''s bell?"
1087Baartock was just about to tell him, when Mrs. Jackson asked,"You want to see the bridge?"
1087Baartock, will your mother or father be home now?"
1087Before they could decide, Baartock''s father was in the living room saying,"What happen bridge?"
1087Can you really make it work?"
1087Could you get him down there?
1087Did n''t humans eat anything that he could eat?
1087Did you bring something for show- and- tell?"
1087Do you know how to get home?"
1087Do you know where the high school is?
1087Do your mother give you any other coins?"
1087Finally she asked,"Do you know how to use it?"
1087From right here?"
1087Go see Jason?"
1087Got ants in your pants?"
1087He asked,"No seat belt?"
1087How about to your school?"
1087How much further is it?"
1087I wonder if that''s just the way trolls are?"
1087Is that all you need?"
1087Jackson?"
1087Jason whispered to him,"Where do you live?"
1087May I keep these coins to give back to her?"
1087Mr. Fennis stood, leaning up against the tree, and thought of some things he could say, but"Should n''t we go back now?"
1087Mrs. Pangle, is he all right?
1087Mrs. Stogbuchner, can I move?"
1087Now, does anyone else have anything for show- and- tell?"
1087Stogbuchner?"
1087Then he asked"How old are you?"
1087Then she pulled the needle out and said,"That was n''t too bad, was it?"
1087Then will you lead the class out onto the playground?
1087This is his first day, is n''t it Baartock?"
1087What school?"
1087What''s that you''re eating?"
1087What''s wrong?"
1087When Mrs. Stogbuchner finished reading the story, Baartock asked,"Why boy not scare wolf?"
1087When he sat at the table across from Jason, the red- haired boy asked,"Why do you call that a fire drill?"
1087Which way is your home?"
1087Who''d want to go out in this anyway?"
1087Why do n''t you show me around?"
1087Would you get a new student kit for Baartock?
1087Would you like to look at it?"
1087You did n''t hurt yourself?"
1087You do n''t do that in your folks car, do you?"
33511And how do you know that?
33511And how would you do that?
33511Are you all asleep? 33511 Beauty,"said the monster to her,"will you allow me to look on while you are eating your supper?"
33511But, dear sister,said he,"where would you have us go to find the King of the Peacocks?"
33511By what wonderful power are you enabled to speak, little Frog?
33511Do you think I came here just to draw water for you?
33511Does she live far from here?
33511How can that be done?
33511How comes it,said he,"that the key of the closet is not with the others?"
33511How could I have imagined that I should be able to control such wild and fiery horses? 33511 How do you do it?
33511How, my Lord Marquis,exclaimed the King,"this castle belongs to you?
33511Is it my brothers?
33511Is our boat having a dance on the water?
33511Is that all?
33511Is that all?
33511Is there nothing you wish me to buy for you?
33511Shall we remain here long?
33511Well,he said,"have her brothers, I wonder, told me the truth?
33511What are you doing there?
33511What do I not owe you, valiant liberator?
33511What do you want of me?
33511What do you wish to do with me?
33511What is the meaning of this?
33511What must I do then,replied the Queen,"to soften your heart?"
33511What shall we do, my daughter?
33511Who is there?
33511Why could n''t she ask for wearing apparel as we did? 33511 Why should I cry about my father''s death?
33511Will you not come down?
33511You consent?
33511You would so like to go to the ball, is not that it?
33511Are we not more attractive than she is?"
33511Are you dissatisfied with my birth, my understanding, my temper, or my manners?"
33511At that moment, the enchantment being ended, the Princess awoke, and gazing at him for the first time with unexpected tenderness,"Is it you, Prince?"
33511Blue Beard having examined it, said to his wife,"Why is there blood on this key?"
33511But confess now, you think me very ugly, do you not?"
33511Can you assert this-- you who have so much, and who so earnestly desired to possess it?
33511Cinderella smiled, and said,"She was very lovely, then?
33511Could not I get a sight of her?
33511He had already seized one of them, when his wife said to him,"Why are you doing that at this hour of night?
33511He had ridden post- haste, and in great astonishment asked what was the meaning of this horrible spectacle?
33511He was ready to die with mingled joy and sorrow; he called to them with all his might, and they heard him, but how was he to reach them?
33511How is this, my daughter?"
33511Is it his fault that he is ugly and that he is not clever?
33511Is it reasonable that persons of intellect should be in a worse position than those that have none?
33511Is she more beautiful than her portrait?"
33511Know you not that this is the house of an ogre who eats little children?"
33511On hearing this, the Queen could no longer restrain her tears:"Alas, what have I done to you,"she cried,"that you should keep me here?
33511Once more she said,"Are we near, are we anywhere near it now?"
33511Setting aside my ugliness, is there anything in me that displeases you?
33511She had lost almost all her fear of the monster, but she almost died of fright, when he said,"Beauty, will you be my wife?"
33511So the two Princes started on their long journey, and they asked everyone whom they met,"Do you know the King of the Peacocks?"
33511The King and Queen, however, said to each other,"What worse thing could happen to us?
33511The King said to his brother"If the King of the Peacocks is a peacock himself, how can our sister marry him?
33511The fairy has ordered a bunch of the most beautiful flowers, and where am I to find them?
33511The fairy then said to Cinderella,"Well, there is something in which to go to the ball; are you not well pleased?"
33511Then at last, when she asked again,"Are we anywhere near it now?"
33511They said to one another,"Why should this wretched little thing be happier than we are?
33511To whom have I to talk in these solitudes?
33511Too late the poor Queen repented of her rashness:"What could I have been thinking of?"
33511What are they now doing in the forest?
33511What can have happened that we should be so ill- treated?"
33511What have I done to the King that he should banish me?
33511When she was fifteen years old, the big Prince said to the King,"Father, my sister is old enough to be married; shall we not soon have a wedding?"
33511When the wicked fairy found out that the Queen did not sleep on the ground, she sent for her:"What gods or men are they who protect you?"
33511Whilst she was busy with the hairdressing, they said to her,"Cinderella, should you be very glad to go to the ball?"
33511Why did I refuse to marry him?
33511Will it not be time enough to- morrow?"
33511With whom can I share my troubles?
33511Would you not be glad to receive a similar gift?
33511You must be joking to talk like this of hanging us; have we stolen anything from you?"
33511[ Illustration:''_ Grandma, what great ears you have!_''_ Little Red Riding- Hood_]"Who is there?"
33511[ Illustration:''_ The King''s son gave her his hand._''_ Cinderella._]"Yes, but am I to go in these dirty old clothes?"
33511can you possibly consent to such a cruel thing?
33511cried the mother,"what do I see?
33511do you not see anything coming?"
33511do you not see anything coming?"
33511do you not see anything coming?"
33511do you not see anything coming?"
33511exclaimed the woodcutter''s wife,"Can you find the heart to lose your own children?"
33511replied Little Thumbling, who trembled from head to foot, as indeed did all his brothers,"what shall we do?
33511responded the Queen,"and what kind of people do you see here?
33511she asked her;"is there to be no end to our misery?"
33511what have I done?"
33511what will become of me?
33511what would you ask of me?"
33511where are now my children, my poor children?"
33511where now are our poor children?
33511who would not be so, dear friend?
27321A pretty piece of folly it would be, would n''t it, dear, when you ca n''t read a word of writing?
27321Am I Robin Telfer, of the Valley of Yarrow, and yet canna shake aff my silly dreams?
27321And what have ye for supper?
27321And where is your garden, my child?
27321Are ye hungry, my laddie? 27321 Cruel, am I?"
27321D''ye think I''m not alive?
27321Dear little Cristobal,sobbed the broken- hearted Jasper,"how could you forgive such a wicked boy as I?"
27321Did he, indeed? 27321 Do n''t you know what the proverb says?
27321Do you know that those flowers, and those trees with fruit like''bonny beaten gold,''have been watered by your tears, Little One? 27321 Does she take me for an old man?"
27321Have you no love of country,cried they,"that you would willingly cast your lot among silly creatures who look down upon your race?"
27321How can that be?
27321How many?
27321How now, little ones? 27321 I am Fontana,"said she;"and is this Blanche?"
27321I have heard of thy good heart, my maiden: now what would please thee most?
27321I ken I''m talking in my sleep,said the lad;"but can ye tell me what dell is this, and how I chanced to be in it?"
27321I like''The Lost Sylphid''the best,said Prudy;"but_ was_ she a great butterfly, do you s''pose?
27321I saw them,said Despard;"but what good did that do?"
27321I suppose you never were beaten,said the old woman;"you were never pelted with whizzing stones?"
27321Is there any one else to love?
27321It is Hildegarde,said she dreamily;"where has she stayed so long?"
27321May I help you, fair Sylphid?
27321Not so fast: will you give me your castle as well?
27321Now, how many jewels shall I give her?
27321Now, ma,Grace went on,"I want to ask you where are those I- don''t- know- what- to- call-''ems?
27321O Despard, what have you done?
27321Only this, little brother: Are you ready for Christmas?
27321Poor little brother,said Goldilocks when they had gone farther on their journey,"you are as good as I; but how is it?
27321Prithee, little urchin,said one of the men,"can you tell us what has become of a young alder- tree, whose green leaves are lined with silver?"
27321Shall I give you ten golden words for a Christmas- gift? 27321 Shall I make him one of the great men of the earth, little Blanche?
27321There, now, what is it, Gracie? 27321 Was ever such a vision of loveliness?"
27321Was he brown, my son, with a long nose?
27321Weeping so soon?
27321Were they a king and queen?
27321What brings a body here at this time of night?
27321What frightens you?
27321What is your name, little girl?
27321What think you I care for them? 27321 What to do?"
27321What, in the frozen ground, under the snow?
27321When may she, Aunt''Ria?
27321Where is my golden gate?
27321Where is that?
27321Why do I fear that I shall not win the love of Prince Reginald? 27321 Why linger here?"
27321Why should you befriend a poor wretch who can not repay you?
27321Why sit you here, sighing like the north wind?
27321Why, brother,cried Goldilocks, in alarm,"are you possessed by the furies?
27321Will the sad boy come too?
27321Will you promise me that Hilda will never trouble me again?
27321You do indeed look sad, little brother: where is your pain?
27321You mean little Harvey? 27321 _ My tears_, little sister?"
27321After this, people looked at Blanche, and said,"How is it?
27321And may I copy them, Cassy and I, into a book, for a certain afflicted relative?"
27321And what wilt thou do with the rest of the gold?"
27321Are the inmates all safe?"
27321But Zora gave a mocking laugh, and said, pointing her finger at her,--"Who now is the heir of the throne?
27321But the kelpie came every day, repeating the question,"Will you go now?"
27321But, after all, what can be expected of creatures without souls?
27321But, if you do not know the way home, pray how can you tell which road to take?"
27321By the way, have you seen such a thing hereabouts as a green alder- tree?"
27321Do I not tire of stooping to pick them up?
27321Do n''t you s''pose I know what fairy stories mean?
27321Dreaming, no doubt; but what meant all these nimble little beings bustling hither and thither in hot haste?
27321He cried out again and again,"What right had that fierce Jasper to spring upon me so?
27321He held her hand, and whispered,--"Will you go with me and be my bride, beautiful Blanche?"
27321He walked in the procession that night, carrying a candle whose light he could not see; but what did it signify, since there was light in his soul?
27321Here, now, you have called up a bristling crop of thistles and brambles?
27321I will hasten home, pluck up the bush, and burn it: then who will be the wiser?"
27321Is it just, is it right, for the great man''s son to put out a peasant boy''s eyes, and be happy again?"
27321Is your ain father served with larger potatoes or creamier buttermilk?
27321It''s a downright shame, is n''t it, ma, to have little Prudy so imposed upon?
27321Let me hide my face; for what would Blanche say if she knew, that, because my heart is proud, I am shut out of my own castle?
27321Oh, will you indeed carry me there?"
27321One might have supposed him sleeping; for how should one imagine that his beautiful eyes were of no manner of use, except when they were closed?
27321Ought he not to suffer even as I have suffered?
27321Say, have your brithers softer beds than yours?
27321She did not intend to speak; but asked,"What noise was that?"
27321She longed for the true home she had left; but whither should she go to seek it?
27321So saying, the goblin made another circle three times, on the ground, and again muttered,--"How long is fair Hilda a snowy wee lamb?
27321Suppose I were to bring back Moneta and the child,--would you give me your chests of gold?"
27321Tell me, was he right to fly at me like a wild beast?
27321The kelpie said,"Will you go down?"
27321The sun has left it open: do you see it, beautiful lady?"
27321Then do n''t you care for my skeeter- bites?
27321Thus she sat for a long time, not knowing whither to go, till a young man chanced to come that way, who said,"What do you here?"
27321Was this Zora''s return for her cousin''s love?
27321What had those deep eyes to say?
27321What meant these pearl- bedecked caves, scarcely larger than swallows''nests?
27321When the morrow came, the husband and wife wept for joy at meeting once more; and Ivan said,--"Can you forgive me, dearest Moneta?"
27321Where was he?
27321Who could have dreamed that she was thinking of nothing but how to ruin the peace of her gentle cousin?
27321Who thought you could make flowers grow?
27321Whose mither sae kind as yours, ungrateful chiel?
27321Why did I open the door for you?"
27321Why was it so wistful?
27321Will they set the royal crown on a sheep''s head, think you?
27321Will you give me the castle and gold, and ten years of your life?"
27321Will you hide them in your heart, and be happy?"
27321You can surely ask no more?"
27321You did n''t feel afraid I''d believe''em, did you?
27321cried Prudy, entirely forgetting her troubles;"when may she write it, Aunt''Ria, she and Cassy?"
27321cried Zora, turning pale,"who ever heard of such a cruel request?"
27321do you understand?"
27321do you?
27321how should even a sister know him in the dim starlight, among the passing troops of elfish and mortal riders?
27321laughed Grace;"how happened that little thing to mistrust what I meant?"
27321said she:"and why do you weep?"
27321said the old crone, dropping her sticks, and looking up with surprise in every wrinkle:"you do n''t mean_ me_?
27321then said aloud,"Say, what harm has the princess done to my rosebud, my lily, my pride?"
27321then we should swim in herrings and oil; and who knows but, for once in my life, I might even get a taste of venison?"
27321then what shall I do?"
27321these green canopies, overgrown with moss?
27321what is it you do n''t want me to hear?"
27321what story has a moral for you, miss?
27321why do you weep?
15592Am I not under a curse?
15592And is this all that you can spare to the poor houseless strangers?
15592And what am I doing?
15592And where are you going, Pat, dear?
15592And who art thou that mockest my sorrow?
15592And whom is the youngest to marry?
15592And you want me to give you something extra for waiting a week?
15592But the strangers, good father?
15592But yet one word more-- what are these works of which thou speakest?
15592But-- man-_is yon Rory?_ I''d know his fiddle in a thousand.
15592Can you beg?
15592Can you lend us a saucepan, good Mother?
15592Can you spare us a blanket?
15592Did I ever learn manners?
15592Dinna miscall your betters, Brockburn: why will ye not credit our existence, man?
15592Do you see that old witch?
15592Does a magician live here?
15592Does a magician live here?
15592First,she continued, holding out the lock of hair,"will you keep this carefully, and never give it away?
15592Has the Prince of Gold no friend who can tell him that there is a loose stone above the archway that is tottering to fall?
15592Have you just come here?
15592Have you looked at the things you got last night?
15592How am I to catch them?
15592How have I been so deceived in you? 15592 I wo n''t,"he said,"I wo n''t; why should I?"
15592If it were not for the charity of good Christians, what would poor folk do for comfort on such an evening as this?
15592Is he to have one?
15592Is there not a cause?
15592Is there not good reason?
15592Is this where you''ve been all the time, and a better man than you as good as hanged for you? 15592 Is this your wush?"
15592May I bring my old father, madam?
15592May I not be excused?
15592My dear friend,said he,"what do I see?
15592Now can you plough, or sow, or feed cattle, or plant crops?
15592Now in the name of ill- luck, how came he to guess that?
15592Now,said she, when the lock was wound,"will you promise me three things?"
15592Of what avail is it that we have learned the language of men, if we do not help them to the utmost of our powers? 15592 Pray, what do you expect?"
15592Shall I be turned out of the house where I was born, because the country- folk are fools?
15592She''s got the dowry, and the farm, and the feather- bed,groaned the Ogre;"what more does she want?"
15592This was my left hand going to town, and how in the name of fortune could it be my left going back, considering that I''ve turned round? 15592 Thus to thee, but how to me?"
15592Was ever a poor woman plagued with such a careless hussy?
15592Was there ever such a brute?
15592What ails you, my little lass?
15592What book do you want?
15592What cruelty led you to bestow it upon me?
15592What does he want?
15592What is blacker than soot?
15592What is the matter, Godson?
15592What meddling busybody told him that the Baroness gave me a new blanket at Michaelmas?
15592What would not one give to possess her?
15592What, all this land below here, that joins on to your own?
15592Where is he?
15592Where is the lock of hair, my son?
15592Which of us told you?
15592Which of us told you?
15592Who calls me godson?
15592Who knows but they may accuse me of theft?
15592Who knows the virtue that''s in them?
15592Why do n''t you go on darning?
15592Why do n''t you go on darning?
15592Why do n''t you go on darning?
15592Will no one hang me also,he cried,"and rid the world of such a monster?"
15592Will you come to the funeral?
15592Will you help yourself, or take what''s given ye, Pat?
15592Will you help yourself, or take what''s given ye?
15592Will you make him over to me?
15592Wo n''t you take a turn with us, Pat?
15592Would any man of spirit hold his home at the whim of a landlord? 15592 Would you have me help myself before company?
15592You speak very wisely,said the Knave,"And what, for instance, can you do?"
15592You would rather have had me for your gossip?
15592After which, the two dissatisfied magicians withdrew together, saying,"Should we permit ourselves to be slighted for nothing?"
15592All is now full of hope and joy, and why should you look so sour?"
15592And the courtiers added,"If a prince may not have a hasty temper, who may, we should like to know?"
15592And the outlay so weighed upon his mind that he cleared his throat and began:"Not for seven days, did you say, sir?
15592And what became of the water sprite?
15592And who knows if they''re decent folk at all?
15592Are we not partners in good luck and ill?
15592Are you clever at carpentry, mason''s work, tailoring, or shoemaking?"
15592But the Ogre became angry, and cried;"What are you thinking of, man?
15592But the proverb failed him, for the Dwarf turned as before, shouting:"What''s yon?"
15592But the sound of its fall did not escape the ears of the Man of Peace, who cried as before:"What''s yon?"
15592But you, comrade, why is your face so cloudy?"
15592Can you paint, or play the fiddle?"
15592Could we not find a better trade yet?"
15592Do you brew at home?"
15592From how many waters have they not already banished us?
15592From three sides they hemmed him in, crying,"Which of us told you?"
15592Have you looked at the yellow flowers this morning?"
15592His beautiful face quivered with amusement, and he cried triumphantly,"D''ye see me?--d''ye see me noo, Brockburn?"
15592How could I have acted better?"
15592How do_ you_ cook them?"
15592How many fish did you catch?"
15592If you have not forgotten me, why have you withheld this benefit till it is too late for my happiness?
15592Is such cruelty possible?
15592Is this thy gratitude?
15592It was very hard on the Fool; but what can one expect if he keeps company with a Knave?
15592Just when the store was exhausted, the Knave came running to the Fool with an empty bag and a wry face, crying,"Dear friend, what shall we do?
15592Should one take the first on the top shelf, or the bottom shelf, to the left, or to the right?"
15592Then said the Jew,"My son, why have you chosen this jar, when there are others so much finer?"
15592Then the Neck turned to the maiden and said,"Dost thou hold to thy promise?"
15592Then the next day he returned as he had said, and the Neck was waiting impatiently on the lake, and he cried,"What news, my father?"
15592This is a sign of travelling, and am I to be debarred from fun because I live in a lake instead of a hill?"
15592Was there ae body that ye expected?"
15592What''s got ye the night, that_ you_ should lose your way in a bit mist?"
15592When the first stone fell, the Man of Peace looked sharply round, saying:"What''s yon?"
15592When the king returned home, he asked his courtiers,"Where are there seven roads lying near to each other, some broad, and some narrow?"
15592When wishes can not reach these, do you think it matters to me what I may command?"
15592Who is to hinder my carrying your lass off, without''with your leave''or''by your leave,''dowry or none?"
15592Why are you not dressed in your Sunday clothes, and wherefore do you heave such doleful sighs, whilst we ring merrily?
15592Why do you not come to church like others?
15592Why should n''t this one darn while the others boil?
15592Will you take service with me?"
15592Would ye gang stravaging about the country again the nicht?"
15592Wouldst thou murder me?"
15592cried the prince,"why is your kindness so tardy?
15592do n''t you see them lying there in a heap?"
15592roared the blacksmith, snatching at the quilt to drag it off,"are you mad?
15592they cried,"who is this that comes trimp tramp, with a face as long as a poplar- tree?
19860Ah, Morgiana,said Ali Baba,"what is it you show me?
19860And how was that?
19860And what stratagem is it you would employ?
19860And why not?
19860By what adventure,said she, fetching a deep sigh,"are you come hither?
19860Child,said she,"to whom are we obliged for this great plenty and liberality?
19860How comes this wound?
19860How will you defend yourself against invisible persons?
19860How, madam,he demanded,"what, then, am I to believe?
19860I have neither forgiveness nor mercy,replied the giant;"and is it not just that he who has inflicted death should suffer it?"
19860Is it possible,said he,"that you can give up your own child?"
19860Madam,demanded the caliph,"where is the bundle of hair?"
19860Mother,said he,"have I an uncle?"
19860My daughter,said he to the princess,"where are the musicians whom I hear?
19860My dear prince, what have you done?
19860My good mother,said the princess,"what is a roc, and where may one get an egg?"
19860Perhaps,said he,"the man who is with you can give you some information?"
19860Sister,said Prince Bahman,"what has become of all your mirth and gayety?
19860Tell me,replied he,"can you shoot with a bow?"
19860Those admirable characters, are they not written by the hands of a man?
19860Those negroes,replied they,"eat men; and by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?"
19860Well,continued the sultan,"what sayest thou to such a present?
19860Well,said the emperor,"have you spoken to your sister?
19860Were you born blind of the right eye?
19860What can be the meaning of this mark?
19860What do you say?
19860What is that, good mother?
19860What novelty is this?
19860What would he have?
19860What wouldst thou have?
19860Where,said she,"can he get so many large gold trays, and such precious stones to fill them?
19860Who is this strange man,said she,"who eats no salt with his meat?
19860Wretched man, do you not know it? 19860 Aladdin got up trembling, and, with tears in his eyes, said to the magician,What have I done, uncle, to be treated in this severe manner?"
19860Aladdin, amazed at all he saw and heard, forgot what was past, and rising said,"Well, uncle, what is to be done?
19860And has she consented to the pleasure I expect of seeing you?"
19860And ought I not to bestow her on one who values her at so great a price?"
19860And what have I done to deserve one so wretched?"
19860Another voice asked,"What need had the princess of the dervish''s prayers?"
19860Are they underground, or invisible in the air?
19860Are you not well?
19860Are you of any trade?"
19860As he approached, he began crying,"Who will exchange old lamps for new?"
19860At last, addressing himself to the princess, he said,"Whence is this wonderful water?
19860At last, when he had recovered himself, he said,"And what is become of the merchant?"
19860At that summons the genie appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
19860Before they gave the fatal stroke, one of the slaves said to Zobeide and her sisters,"Would it not be right to interrogate them first?"
19860But now I am speaking of the palace, pray how do you like it?
19860But the question was, who should first make the inquiry?
19860By what art is it made to play so high that nothing in the world can be compared to it?
19860Can anything be more wonderful?
19860Do I not seriously tell you, that if I were to yield to your foolish importunities, it would cost me my life?"
19860Do you ever push them with your horns?
19860Do you ever show your anger by stamping on the ground with your feet?
19860Fantastic, magnificent, extravagant, beautiful, gloriously colored, humorous-- was ever book of such infinite contrasts?
19860Has the sultan been made acquainted with our poverty, and had compassion on us?"
19860Have I not, then, reason to envy your lot?"
19860Have you not read the inscription over the gate?
19860He soon heard a voice, however, which said,"Do you know what honest man this is, to whom we have done this service?"
19860How came that vile genie to address himself to me, and not to you, to whom he had appeared before in the cave?"
19860I hastened to meet her; and as I was making a low obeisance she asked me,"Are you a man, or a genie?"
19860If thy own breast can not keep thy counsel, how canst thou expect the breast of another to be more faithful?''"
19860Immediately a genie of frightful aspect appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
19860Is it not reasonable that, after all this, I should enjoy a quiet and pleasant life?"
19860Is it not worthy of the princess my daughter?
19860Is not this your hatchet and are not these your cords?"
19860Or has some misfortune befallen you?
19860Remember, too, that he would eat no salt with you; and what would you have more to persuade you of his wicked design?
19860She was in as great amazement at what her son told her as at the appearance of the genie, and said to him,"But, son, what have we to do with genies?
19860Some one said,"Where is he going?"
19860The genie immediately appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
19860The merchant, alarmed by the horrible figure of this giant, as well as by the words he heard, replied in trembling accents:"How can I have slain him?
19860Then said Zobeide, accosting the other two,"Sisters, do you not see that this honest man is ready to sink under his burden?
19860This, O Lord Genie, is my history; does it not appear to you of a most extraordinary nature?
19860What business brings you here?"
19860What has he done to obtain from Thee a lot so agreeable?
19860What is your contest about?"
19860What name do you call it by?"
19860What say you, my lads?"
19860When they come to tie you to the manger, what resistance, pray, do you ever make?
19860Whence did you come?"
19860Whence has he all this wealth?"
19860Where its source?
19860Why do n''t you terrify them with your bellowing?
19860Why do you not ease him of it?"
19860Why should you now doubt of the truth of what the holy woman told you?
19860Will you allow me the consolation of giving her this last proof of my affection?"
19860child,"said she,"what are you thinking of?
19860cried the mother,"was your lamp then the occasion of that cursed genie''s addressing himself to me rather than to you?
19860exclaimed Ali Baba,"what have you done, to ruin me and my family?"
19860replied he,"how do you think I should obtain the favor you wish me?
19860replied he,"you would have me do something against my conscience, or against my honor?"
19860said she,"has Ali Baba gold so plentiful as to measure it?
19860said the person whom he addressed,"have you never seen or heard of her?
32357A human child?
32357A new kind of bird?
32357And how is it that a lonely child like you is so happy and good?
32357And what do you do to have such rosy cheeks?
32357And when you die, what happens?
32357And where did you get the fine tales you tell?
32357Are you a fairy?
32357Are you hungry?
32357Bud, if a rose opens three leaves one day, two the next, and seven the next, how many in all?
32357But how can we live? 32357 Ca n''t you love?
32357Can I stay here under this big leaf?
32357Can you cure them all?
32357Can you see through it?
32357Can you?
32357Daisy, if a silk- worm spins one yard of fairy cloth in an hour, how many can he spin in a day?
32357Dear Spring, will you help a poor little sprite, who is looking for the fire spirits''home?
32357Did n''t you think I was drowned? 32357 Do n''t we have good times?"
32357Do n''t you care about me at all, and do n''t you want me to stay with you a little while?
32357Do n''t you like it? 32357 Does the new toy please you, darling?"
32357How can I climb up?
32357How did you know?
32357How do you kiss?
32357How shall I find my way to Fairyland?
32357Is n''t it lovely?
32357Is this the way you live?
32357Must I stay here all alone? 32357 Never wilful and disobedient?"
32357No hearts?
32357O faithful Ripple, what can I do to thank you? 32357 Shall I ever get there?"
32357Shall I ever see the beautiful world again?
32357Shall I see her?
32357Shall we throw it out of the nest and make room for our babies?
32357Shall you keep her?
32357Sure you wo n''t want to be a bird, a fish, or a mermaid again?
32357Then it_ was_ a dream, and I have n''t been a mermaid?
32357Twinkle, if there were fifteen seeds on a dandelion, and the wind blew ten away, how many would be left?
32357We will,cried Plush;"but how can we get out of this high tower with no ladder?"
32357What can we do with them, and how can they bring us good luck?
32357What do they say?
32357What do you want with me, pretty thing? 32357 What does Polly say?
32357What does he say?
32357What have you brought me, old Leather- wing?--a pretty bride to cheer up the marsh, or an elf to dance at my ball to- night?
32357What is a mother?
32357What is heaven?
32357What is love?
32357What is the matter?
32357What must I do?
32357Where are the people?
32357Where are you?
32357Where do you come from?
32357Where is it; oh, where is it?
32357Who are they? 32357 Who are you?"
32357Who takes care of you, and where do you live? 32357 Who taught you to dance so wonderfully, child?"
32357Why are you all so gay?
32357Why are you so slow about blooming, baby rose? 32357 Why do they do this?"
32357Why, do n''t you know? 32357 Will you be contented now?"
32357Will you stay and work with us? 32357 Without any nurses to take care of them, or mothers to pet them?"
32357Would you like to hear them sing?
32357Yes; but can I get through the vines?
32357Yes; will you carry these seeds of mine to the great meadow over there? 32357 You do n''t seem to have a very large family, or have the others gone to a party somewhere?"
32357You never can teach her to fly, and what will you do when your own children are gone?
32357But Mamma is away, Nurse is tired, and I know all my books by heart; so what can I do, since I''m too tired to play with my dolls?"
32357But as the elves spoke, Eva looked very sad and said,--"How can I go?
32357But first, tell us who this pretty person is, if you please?"
32357But where are we going now?"
32357But who should reign in her place?
32357Can I do any errand for you?"
32357Can I go and tell her all I have learned, or must I stay till she comes?"
32357Can I go to it?"
32357Can you be happy here, and do all these things faithfully?"
32357Come now, do you see any meaning to that, my sons?"
32357Could it be a mermaid?"
32357Could you tell me?"
32357Dear sprite, have you no charm to make the little darling breathe again?
32357Do n''t you have fathers and mothers down there?"
32357Do n''t you know about souls and being good, and all that?"
32357Do you feel tired now, or lonely, or afraid?
32357Has the charm begun to work?"
32357Have n''t you any flowers or birds or animals here to play with?"
32357How can I ever learn?"
32357How long have I been away?"
32357How shall I do it?"
32357I am calling, I am calling, As I ripple, run, and sing; Who will listen, who will listen, To the story of the spring?"
32357I''m not afraid to speak the truth, am I, Betty?"
32357Is it real?
32357Is it sweet?"
32357May I come and play with you, and learn to be like you, dear Betty?"
32357Oh, why was I vain and silly?''
32357Shall I see her soon?
32357The King took her on one knee and set Betty on the other, saying gayly,--"Now what shall we do for this brave man who saved me?"
32357Then she remembered what the brook told her, and called out,--"Echo, are you here?"
32357We sing and swim and eat and sleep; is not that enough to make us happy?"
32357What can I do to thank you?"
32357What can we do, since we have no money or friends to help us?"
32357What is there at the cottage that we have not at the palace?"
32357Which will you be,--a fish, a bird, or a mermaid?"
32357Who lives there?
32357Who of us can say the same?"
32357Who''ll buy?
32357Who''ll buy?"
32357Why did n''t you rouse me sooner, dear?
32357Wo n''t the wind tear them to pieces and the storms wreck them?"
32357Would you like to do it, Brownie, and be a princess?"
32357[ Illustration: Golden- rod heard the soft sigh, and whispered,"What troubles you, sweet neighbor?"
32357and the King laughed as he asked in a surprised tone,--"But why not come and play with her here?
32357and what shall we do with her?"
32357and why do they care for those poor flowers?"
32357was n''t that a fine frolic?
32357what can she be?
32357what have we here?
38847But where shall I find this dancing- water?
38847You have three brothers; does not any one of them love you sufficiently to go and fetch some?
15164A- well, is that Methusalem?
15164And so you have had all this toil and labour on account of a foolish speech of mine? 15164 And the cow?"
15164And the gold?
15164And the horse?
15164And the pig?
15164And what is my bride doing?
15164Could a_ man_ have done that? 15164 Have you, young man,"asked the king,"another ruby like the one you sold me?"
15164How can you ask me?
15164I ask you, was that natural? 15164 I saw the Emperor,"he resumed,"standing by the bridge, motionless, not feeling the cold-- was that human?
15164I suppose you ca n''t be ready before you have commenced?
15164Is it true, now,said the lad,"what they say, that the Deil can make himself as small as he chooses, and thrust himself on through a pinhole?"
15164Is that Ned?
15164Is that Nicodemus?
15164Is that Sammle?
15164Is that Solomon?
15164Not none on''em?
15164Now, is there any man among you who will stand up here and declare to me that all that was human? 15164 Now, tell me how they knew that Napoleon had a pact with God?
15164Now, what''s my name?
15164The same to you; whither are you going so late?
15164Was that a human man? 15164 Well, I suppose it can not be helped, then; but how much would the young man give you for the cub?"
15164Well, is that Mark?
15164Well, is that Zebedee?
15164Well, you are a wonderful workman, to be sure,said the king;"but how much do you eat at a time, because I suppose you are hungry now?"
15164Wha''s that to yew?
15164What do you say, sir?
15164What is it?
15164What shall I do now?
15164What''s my name?
15164What, is that Bill?
15164What, prithee, shall we do? 15164 Where is the toll?
15164Where''s the flax?
15164Wherever in the world have you been?
15164Whither are you going?
15164Whither are you going?
15164Who are you,said the prince,"and what can you do?"
15164Who are you?
15164Who are you?
15164Why are you weeping thus?
15164Why do n''t you eat out of the barrel of oats?
15164Why do you hold your thumb there?
15164Why have you a bandage on your eyes?
15164Why should n''t I try my luck?
15164You have killed twelve men,said the king;"and you eat for many times twelve; but how many do you work for?"
15164You know your business well, but what''s the use of birds''nests to me, if you ca n''t conduct me out of this forest?
15164''What have you done with my children, the soldiers?''
15164--and, would you believe it?
15164After he announced himself, the emperor admitted him into his presence, and asked him:"Do you wish to keep sheep?"
15164And the old woman said,"Why do you come to tell me this?
15164As soon as he saw her, he made a reverence to her, and she stood on her feet and questioned him:"Whence are you, unknown young man?"
15164As soon as the ploughboy felt that he had intelligence in his head, he began to think:"Why must I follow the plough to the day of my death?
15164Before_ him_, did ever man recover an empire by showing his hat?
15164Besides-- to prove he was the child of God, and made to be the father of soldiers-- was he ever known to be lieutenant or captain?
15164But what a fine goose you have got; where did you buy it?"
15164But what have you got there?"
15164Do you see a bird''s nest in that pine yonder?
15164En w''at de matter wid Brer Rabbit dat he ai n''t j''inin''in?''
15164George said:"Why have you a foot on your shoulder?"
15164Hans stopped and looked at him, and at last he said,"You appear to have a good business, if I may judge by your merry song?"
15164He had not gone very far when he met Lion, and Lion said to him:"Well, brother Ananzi, where have you been?
15164He said,"It is all that fellow Ananzi who has tied me to the tree, but will you loose me?"
15164He said,"What?"
15164He said:"Why should I make room for you?
15164Hearing this, the prince was somewhat disturbed, and said to the old woman:"What shall we do now?
15164Here is one which is a little worn, certainly, and so I will not ask anything more for it than your goose; are you agreeable?"
15164His father said:"What ails you, Vanek?
15164How can the Son of Heaven, who is the father and mother of his people, turn dealer in ranks and honours?
15164How could I stand by and see life taken?
15164How shall we hand him over to you?"
15164Is not the story of the dog of Totoribé Yorodzu written in the Annals of Japan?
15164Is not this a disgrace?
15164Lion, what are you doing there?"
15164May it please your Majesty to order this malefactor to be executed with the sword?"
15164Perhaps you are an old acquaintance?"
15164See you there yon peasant''s son who''s ploughing in the field?
15164She questioned him again:"Who are you?
15164That looked up at her right kewrious, an''that said:"What are yew a- cryin''for?"
15164The Rider, overhearing Hans making these reflections, stopped and said,"Why, then, do you travel on foot, my fine fellow?"
15164The dog said nothing, but instead of the dog the princess replied:"To whom can she belong but to yourself?
15164The emperor inquired menacingly:"Why, villains, did ye hoard up corn, when there was such a famine that so many people died of hunger?
15164The impet that come at night along o''the five skeins, an''that said:"What, hain''t yew got my name yet?"
15164The old woman interrupted him:"How should I not?
15164The prince said to it:"Tell me now, where are my brothers?"
15164Then he said to her:"Dear old woman, do you know what?
15164Then the old man said,"What are you after now?"
15164Then the old woman began to coax it:"And why do you go so far?
15164Then the old woman inquired:"Where is it?"
15164Then the prince asked her:"Where, old woman, is my hare?"
15164Then the three sons went to their father, and asked him:"Daddy, what shall we do?
15164Then they went on eating, but Ananzi wanted to revenge himself, and he said to the Lion,"Which of us do you think is the stronger?"
15164W''at all dis?
15164WHAT DO YOU WANT?"
15164Was that natural, d''ye think?
15164What can I do to requite them?
15164What on earth are you going to keep the fox for?"
15164What princess ever puts only one ruby in her hair?
15164What was the hair?
15164What would come to pass?
15164What''s the good of the sculptor''s damsel without life?
15164What''s the good of the tailor''s dressing without speech?
15164When the dragon came in, the old woman began to question it:"Where in God''s name have you been?
15164Where have you got the soul?"
15164Where was he to get another ruby like it?
15164Whither do you go so far?
15164Why have you been so long without coming here?
15164Why have you come?"
15164Why, do you want another?
15164Would common soldiers have been capable of such wickedness?
15164Would you believe it?
15164demanded the prince,"and what can you do?"
15164get up, Sharpsight, do you know where the princess is?"
15164have you lost your wits?"
15164how shall I manage that?"
15164it is, is it?
15164said Hans, pulling his hair over his eyes,"who would have thought it?
15164the prince asked him,"and why are your eyes bandaged?
15164they were the civil and the military honour that must be kept pure; could their heads be lowered because of the cold?
15164thought Vanek;"who knows whether I may n''t succeed in bringing her to answer when I ask her a question?"
15164was that indeed your thought?
15164what are you doing with that fox?"
15164what''s this?
15164what''s this?"
15164will you tell me that_ that''s_ in the nature of a mere man?
15164would they have done that for a human man?
15164you ca n''t''speck a man fer ter slip en slide de whole blessid day, kin you?
32535And have n''t you found your daddy yet?
32535And have you found your father?
32535And have you lived alone ever since?
32535And what is yours?
32535Are we sure every one is aboard?
32535Are you going to make a cake with the flour the miller brought on board?
32535Are you going, too?
32535Are you sure you are not too sleepy?
32535But what''s your name?
32535But who rang the bell?
32535Did n''t you ever have a tooth pulled out that way? 32535 Did you call us?"
32535Did you ever eat a raisin cracker?
32535Did you expect him?
32535Did you get wet?
32535Did you hear what I said about waddling just now?
32535Did you hear what they say about me?
32535Do they eat cats?
32535Do they?
32535Do you hear what they say about me?
32535Does Snoozer attend to the ladder?
32535Friends or enemies?
32535Have n''t you?
32535Helloa, what are you talking about?
32535How are you, my little ducklets?
32535How did it run?
32535How did we get here?
32535How is Taffy?
32535I wonder if I have lost my cunning?
32535I wonder what will happen next?
32535Is Friday here?
32535Is n''t that fine?
32535Is that what you said?
32535May we see him?
32535Mine? 32535 Oh Captain Duck,"cried Puss, Junior,"we do n''t have to land, do we?"
32535Oh, is that so,said little Tom Thumb, although, of course, he was frightened almost to death, but what was the use to show fear?
32535Oh, yes,cried Tom Thumb,"where is Friday?"
32535Polly want a cracker?
32535Shall we accept the pretty boat''s offer?
32535So you think old Slipper- Slopper would have killed the goose and eaten it himself, do you?
32535Supposing someone should come across the ladder and make a call while you''re out?
32535Then you are powerless against these three men in a tub?
32535Was Bobby Shafto on board?
32535We sail to- morrow,said the sailor boy,"why do n''t you come aboard ship?
32535Well, as the wind is in the South, why do n''t you fish?
32535Well, what shall I tell and where shall I begin?
32535Well, you got here all right, did n''t you?
32535What are you doing?
32535What are you grumbling about?
32535What can I do with it, mother?
32535What did he look like?
32535What do we do when it rains?
32535What do you do when both of you go out?
32535What do you do when it rains?
32535What kind of a story do you like?
32535What''s going on, I wonder?
32535What''s the matter, my breezy little skipper?
32535What''s the matter?
32535What''s the matter?
32535When does your next balloon go up?
32535Where are you going?
32535Where did you get Snoozer and Caromel and Caroline?
32535Where did you hear that pretty song?
32535Where''s my gun?
32535Which way did the fox go?
32535Who has taken the black duck?
32535Who speaks to me?
32535Who''s that?
32535Why do n''t you have a race?
32535Why do n''t you take the basket car with you?
32535Why should they?
32535Why was n''t I more careful?
32535Why were n''t you more careful?
32535Why, I''ve been up to the moon,said Puss, Junior,"but never will I get excited over that?"
32535Why, do n''t you remember, John?
32535Why?
32535Will you, my dear Puss?
32535Wo n''t you come, too?
32535Wo n''t you give me some custard?
32535Wo n''t you try to do better?
32535Yes, that there has,said Taffy,"but how can I prove it?
32535You had better be careful,said the owner of the balloon,"how do I know we''ll reach the moon?"
32535You would n''t hit an old man like Neighbor Jones?
32535After giving three loud knocks, Mr. Beaver looked over and said:"What''s the matter?
32535And what did Taffy do?
32535And what do you think he did?
32535And why did n''t you tell me you were going up stream?"
32535Around her throat a string of pearls, And on her neck two little curls; Saw ye aught of my love a- coming from the Opera?
32535BEAVER DAM PUSS, JUNIOR, had gone but a short distance when he heard a sad voice say:"Oh dear, I''ve lost my brother, Where will I ever find another?
32535But where shall we stop?
32535But, would you believe it if I told you, he could n''t find the Dickory Dare Pig anywhere?
32535Do they imagine I come here to sing them to sleep?
32535Do you wonder how Crusoe could do so?"
32535Duck, of course it''s all right for you and your family, but should it rain, what would I do?
32535Duck,"why, what do you suppose a duck''s feathers are good for?
32535Is there a hotel near?"
32535MRS. MOUSEY"WHAT will you have?"
32535Mouse, are you within?
32535Mouse, will you give us some beer?"
32535Puss, Junior, jumped out of his hammock and little Tom Thumb yawned and asked in a sleepy voice,"Who''s ringing the door- bell?"
32535So Puss looked down from the tree and said,"Then would you rather I did n''t catch your parrot?"
32535So, rising from her nest, she said,"Now, children, look at me: A well bred duck should waddle so, From side to side-- d''ye see?"
32535THE RED BEARD BY and by Taffy stopped stroking Puss, Junior, and said in a kindly voice:"Well, my fine little cat, what can I do for you?"
32535Three men in a tub; And who do you think they be?
32535To stand under the coop window and sing a lullaby?
32535Turning to the chipmunk, he said,"What have you got?"
32535UP AND DOWN WHAT is the news of the day, Good neighbors, I pray?
32535Was n''t that lucky?
32535What do you want?
32535When you do, tell him he has a fine little son-- tell him that from me, wo n''t you?"
32535Where are you going?"
32535Where did you come from?
32535Who are you?
32535Who can tell?
32535Why does he blow his horn?
32535Wo n''t you step into the sitting room?"
32535You told me about your cousin, the Golden Goose, do n''t you remember?"
32535[ Illustration]"Please look after the baby,"said the little mother,"while I get the supper?"
32535[ Illustration]"What''s the matter now?"
32535cried Puss,"you do n''t mean to say you do n''t like crackers?"
32535he cried, as he came up to them,"Why do n''t you wait for a fellow?
32535laughed Mr. Fox,"what do they expect?
12067All this will take a good while, will it not?
12067Am I to believe,he said,"that you are the cause of this great evil that has come upon me?
12067And do you always do it?
12067And how did he poison his grandmother by proxy? 12067 And how do you know that the person will ever take it to the Chief Villager?"
12067And if he conquers me, you will marry him?
12067And this fine gentleman,said the Potentate, looking in at the Prince,"what did he do?"
12067And where are the other conspirators?
12067And where do you come from?
12067Are his statements correct?
12067Are you going inside?
12067At what time of the year,asked the oldest boy,"is that fruit just ripe enough to eat?"
12067But how are you going to do it?
12067But how soon can you return?
12067But,said the Bee- man,"you do n''t really think this is her child?"
12067Can we get any thing to eat by it?
12067Can you do any thing to help me?
12067Could it have been a giant, or a powerful prince, or some gorgeous being whom the magicians or the fairies wished to punish? 12067 Do n''t you know?"
12067Do you know,he said, when the Bee- man came out of his hut,"that you have been transformed?"
12067Do you know,said the monster, when he had finished,"that I have had, and still have, a great liking for you?"
12067Do you really wish me to go into my tree again?
12067Has he had much experience in war?
12067Have you any specialty?
12067Have you any thing to eat with you?
12067Have you heard how things are going on there now?
12067Have you visited my museum yet?
12067How can you expect to obtain that which will interest every one, when you do not know what it is in which every one takes an interest? 12067 How did the King get his sentiments mingled?"
12067How long have you been doing this?
12067How long have you been without food?
12067I wonder what I was transformed from?
12067If you will not consent to be paid, why do you pipe?
12067Is the Hermit very strict with you?
12067Is there not a man in your town who is brave enough to speak to me?
12067Is this Apple Island?
12067Is this the town,said the Griffin,"where there is a church with a likeness of myself over one of the doors?"
12067Look here,said that individual, regarding him with interest,"do you black and shine yourself every morning?"
12067Mother,he shouted;"did you hear what those children said?"
12067Oh,said the Absolute Fool,"you refuse me your confidence, do you?
12067Stranger,said the Queen, gazing upon him with admiration,"are you a king in disguise?"
12067Take a dose of this twice a day,said he,"and you will soon find--""A new medicine?"
12067Then I suppose,said the Princess,"you know how to cure the diseases?"
12067They ca n''t hear you?
12067Was his father of royal blood?
12067Well, then,said the Griffin,"will you take me to it?
12067What are you doing here, you vile beggar?
12067What are you going to do with that baby?
12067What are you going to do?
12067What are you thinking of?
12067What could I do?
12067What did you two people come here for?
12067What do you and this young man want?
12067What do you mean by that?
12067What do you mean by that?
12067What do you mean by that?
12067What do you mean? 12067 What do you want with that?"
12067What is that?
12067What is that?
12067What is the first thing to be done?
12067What is the matter with you all?
12067What is the meaning of this long line of people following you at regular distances?
12067What is this little girl in for?
12067What kind of a place is this?
12067What on earth can it mean?
12067What shall we find to hunt?
12067Where are you going?
12067Where is that Jolly- cum- pop?
12067Where is your school?
12067Where shall I go? 12067 Which will you do first,"said the man,"listen to my explanations, or eat?"
12067Who are you all?
12067Who are you?
12067Why do n''t they all live under one ruler?
12067Why do n''t you pick the fruit,asked Captain Covajos,"when it is in its best condition to eat?"
12067Why is it so called?
12067Why not?
12067Why, what''s the matter with the cattle?
12067Why, who can be blowing the pipes of Old Pipes?
12067Will there not be great danger in attacking the castle of a magician?
12067Yes, I have heard of these things,said the Bee- man;"but what have I been transformed from?"
12067You have surely heard of animals and human beings who have been magically transformed into different kinds of creatures?
12067***** THE LADY OR THE TIGER?
12067All I ask is, did you leave the tree standing?"
12067And has it not benefited you?
12067And now would you like to be changed back to your original form?"
12067And now, what do you intend to do about your government?"
12067And what are we to do without the money?"
12067And what does that old Bee- man want?"
12067And what is the meaning of this?
12067Are you willing to wait so long?"
12067But how shall we find out what the different people like?"
12067Course- marker, can you tell us the direction in which we should go?"
12067Did he get another woman to be poisoned in her stead?
12067Did he take the money?"
12067Did you give your parole also?"
12067Did you think of it yourself?"
12067Do you not feel happier?
12067Do you wish to be turned into crawling babies?
12067Have I a right to do that?"
12067Have you any advice to give me in regard to my journey?"
12067Have you any thing to eat that you can spare us?
12067How are we to find the way back to his house?
12067How is it done?"
12067If I go to some other town, shall I not take this trouble there?
12067In a short time, the day for his semi- annual meal would arrive, and then what would happen?
12067In what class of objects do the people of the city take the most interest?"
12067Is it true that I am to fight him?
12067Is n''t it a great thing to find a place like this?"
12067Is not this a good plan?"
12067Or did he employ some one to act in his place as the poisoner?"
12067Our windows must be all in a row, and you can climb up and ask some of them; and if any one tells you, will you get us all out?"
12067Shall you be ready?"
12067THE LADY OR THE TIGER?
12067The Absolute Fool stood for a moment in silent thought; then, addressing the King, he said:"Was Your Majesty''s father a king?"
12067What can I do for you, to show you how grateful I am?"
12067What did the Chief Villager say?
12067What have I ever done to you that you should have condemned me for years and years to echo back the notes of those wretched pipes?"
12067What is to be done?"
12067What possibly can have happened there?"
12067What should he want with me?"
12067Where is he?
12067Why is this?"
12067Will you not ask her to come out and meet me?"
12067Will you tell us why you are come?"
12067Will your Majesty graciously allow them to see it?"
12067You want to be invigorated, do n''t you?
12067and how did you get out of your tree?"
12067and that you are the wicked creature who has again started this old man upon his career of pipe- playing?
12067cried the dwarf,"what do you wish with her?"
12067exclaimed the Captain;"are you not positive about it?"
12067exclaimed the dwarf;"what are you doing here?
12067he cried,"is that you?
12067he cried,"what has happened to my pipes?
12067he said;"what do you mean by that?"
12067said the Princess to the Gryphoness,"and why do you question me?"
12067she exclaimed;"have you already come back?
12067that is it, is it?"
12067when will you be old enough to have ordinary common sense?"
11319Again? 11319 Ah you little rogue, what have you here?"
11319Ah, but as she is really and truly such a model of beauty, what do you think of offering to make a likeness of her, Mamma? 11319 And do you remember nothing about it?"
11319And why not? 11319 Are you hungry?"
11319Are you ill?
11319Are you so_ very_ ill?
11319Are you sorry your mother is so ill?
11319But why do n''t you do it as well?
11319Can you say your prayers?
11319Dear Ianthe, your Gift is Beauty?
11319Does he, Joachim? 11319 Have you had plenty to eat?"
11319How so?
11319How, Mamma?
11319I hope you are not envious of her beauty, Hermione? 11319 In the begging?
11319Is he your best singer?
11319Is that boy whom you have been imitating-- your Aunt says so cleverly-- the_ best_ walker of all the boys in your school?
11319Is that_ you_?
11319Keep what?
11319Mamma, what is the matter?
11319My dear Roderick,she would say sometimes,"if I send in some candles, will you go into the drawing room?"
11319Now, Nurse, I may dress, may I not?
11319Nurse,said Hermione,"your baby is always and always going to sleep; why does n''t he go, and then I could have a bit of fun?
11319Oh-- well, have you no_ good_ walkers at your school?
11319Reuben, what_ can_ you mean? 11319 The woman will say you are her child, and make you go back and beg for her if she gets better, will she not?"
11319The_ best_, Mother?
11319Then I am to beg?
11319Then do you really mean to say you think_ the Candles take care of you_?
11319Then why wo n''t you go into the room without; you know there is a fire? 11319 Upon my word this is a very serious matter, Hermione; who or what has put this into your head?"
11319Well, Mamma?
11319Well, but ca n''t you get ready_ before_ the time a little? 11319 Well, then, when you have begged Him--""What am I to say?"
11319What are we to do with that child?
11319What can you or any one do, for a dying woman and a half- starved child?
11319What is the matter, Hermione?
11319What is the matter, Reuben; what is the meaning of this? 11319 What of, Hermione?
11319What''s that?
11319What''s that?
11319What?
11319Who are you, then?
11319Why goodness me, Miss Hermione, where?
11319Why not?
11319Why, who taught you to do that, young Master?
11319***** What_ is_ the Philosopher''s Stone?
11319Ah, Ianthe, what more has life to give?
11319Ah, dear readers, would our Saviour if present have called_ this_ little child to him, and said,"Of_ such_ is the kingdom of Heaven?"
11319Am I awake, or do I dream?"
11319Am I loving one who does not love me in return?"
11319Ambrosia held back--"Your choice, dear Sister?"
11319And does it not teach us also, what a valuable thing constant practice is?
11319And is it not so?
11319Are you comfortable?"
11319Are you not that woman''s_ child_?"
11319As to his last assertion, how else could he make the child comprehend God at all?
11319At first certainly they had always to pick up his ball for him when it fell, and who was not glad to do it for poor brother Roderick?
11319But what do children in general know about the_ value_ of things and how much they cost?
11319Ca n''t you think of some way of saying what I have told you?
11319Can any of you, for example, see the creatures that float about and fight in a drop of water from the Serpentine River?
11319Can you ever forgive my old unkindness?"
11319Can you guess, dear readers, what a joyous evening it was, that day at the Sea Castle Home?
11319Could you sit and look at a pretty picture for an hour together?
11319Cousin Madeline, what do you think of my pretty light?"
11319Did it never strike you how strange it was that the strongest thing in the world should be_ invisible_?
11319Did you ever look at any interesting object first with your natural eyes, and then through a microscope or magnifying glass?
11319Do you know what that power is?"
11319For what are Giants but great men and great women?
11319Has my new frock come home?"
11319How does the Singing Master sing, Joachim?"
11319How was it?"
11319I_ can not love_ you?
11319In what does your cleverness consist?
11319Is not this wonderful?
11319Now dear little readers, what do_ you_ think about this very important affair?
11319Now, Roderick, wo nt even my Fairy light break through your darkness?"
11319Now, you may say, what had this Mother been about, not to have found out and corrected Joachim''s fault before?
11319Oh, Aurora, Aurora, with that dissatisfied face where is your beauty?
11319Shall I take him with me, Sir, and make him clean, while you dine?
11319So that you see, Mamma, being always in the dark, has quite cured me of being afraid of it: and is not this a very good thing indeed?"
11319Still, was Julia happy?
11319Surely I need say no more about this?
11319Tell me therefore, good little boy, what shall I do for you to show my gratitude?"
11319Theodore started--"What do you mean?
11319There was a clapping of tiny hands, and shouts of joy as they approached; and"What news?
11319To ask if you have guessed the Fairy gift?
11319To the question of"How are you, my darling?"
11319Turning over my books one day, she said,''You can never be either a poet or a painter, or a Mozart or a philosopher, Hermione?
11319What Nurse in England could be expected to enter into so philosophical an investigation of the habits of society?
11319What could I say?
11319What do you say to the Philosopher''s Stone?
11319What else but_ love_ for you has made me do what I have done?"
11319What is it, Hermione?"
11319What makes you cry?"
11319What used they to call you?"
11319Who are you?"
11319Why can not you draw the handsome boy?"
11319You can perhaps fancy it?
11319You learn Italian, I dare say?
11319You never heard about God?"
11319Your conduct has quite satisfied me: but tell me, before you go, why you so often look unhappy?
11319and a terrible suspicion flashed through her mind: and she pointed to her boy, and added, trembling with agony--"Is that_ your_ doing?"
11319and did n''t the Governess, when_ she_ was a little girl, wish very much she was a grown up woman?
11319and why not?"
11319cried he solemnly,"what means this echo from my own heart?
11319cried little Aglaia, floating forward,"from the smudgy old earth; Is it beauty, riches, or what?"
11319cried the bewildered Madeline,"why are you here?"
11319have you drawn him?
11319must I say it in the begging next time?"
11319of her face?"
11319what ever is that?"
11319what is the use of all your labour and poking?''
11319what news?"
11319where are you,"cried Roderick,"I have opened my eyes, and they do n''t hurt-- but it is quite dark:_ is n''t the night over_?..."
11319why ai n''t you going down to the ladies, and ca n''t you be brushing your hair and washing your face and getting ready?"
11319will you never leave off waking the baby?
11319with that discontented mind where is your happiness?
21994A bachelor giant; would that be quite proper?
21994And in what part of the globe is Ethiopia, Ricardo?
21994And what makes you bear arms against the Inca?
21994And why does the king want all these tailors and hatters so suddenly, telescope- makers and swordmakers and shoemakers, too?
21994And you really possess those talismans?
21994But if the English do n''t like Prince Charles when they get him?
21994But the glass might be lost or broken, or the Fairies might take it away, and then where are you?
21994But why do I bandy words with a miserable peasant?
21994But, I say, father,cried Ricardo,"was it not strange about the magic carpet?"
21994But, Jaqueline, about that mosquito?
21994But-- how to get to the moon? 21994 Can we get anything to eat here?"
21994Did n''t you say Prince Charles gave you his own sword?
21994Did n''t you see it, Dick? 21994 Fancy her yourself?"
21994For what reason did you leave the room without my permission?
21994Had it not been predicted?
21994Had we not better go to Jaqueline first, sir?
21994Have you seen anyone go out?
21994How can a girl help a man?
21994How did you get on in England, Dick?
21994I may give your message to my august mistress, the Czarina?
21994I say, though,he said,"what about my father?"
21994I say,said Dick, who was seldom at all up to the standard of royal conversation,"what''s that game you were playing?
21994I wonder what he''s doing?
21994I wonder who she is?
21994If you are anxious about him, why do n''t you look for him in the magic crystal?
21994In what can I help my people?
21994Like him? 21994 May I ask what_ you_ are doing here, and how you came?"
21994Observed what, my dear?
21994See what, sir?
21994The king need never be told anything about it,said Jaqueline,"need he?"
21994The thing is, of course,he said,"to destroy the Earthquaker before he wakens; but how?
21994Then wherefore would you slay them, when you must all perish?
21994They have not hurt the carpet?
21994Thou knowest; why should we instruct thee? 21994 True, there is no great harm done, and you have confessed frankly; but how am I to trust you any longer?"
21994Was she-- was she very pretty, Dick?
21994Well, Dick, but how do you mean to do it?
21994What am I to say to my mother?
21994What are you going to do with the sword?
21994What country was he in?
21994What does your Majesty mean?
21994What is all this, Carluccio?
21994What is it, dear?
21994What is it?
21994What is?
21994What means this, gentlemen?
21994What reply have you, sir, to make to his Royal Highness''s statements?
21994What, sir, to a dwarf? 21994 Where am I to put you till your friends come and pay your ransom?"
21994Where am I? 21994 Where does he live?"
21994Where on earth are they?
21994Where''s the good of it,he used to ask,"all that stamping, and posture- making, and ha- haing?
21994Who on earth can he be? 21994 Why do you bother a fellow so?"
21994Why, did n''t you notice it? 21994 Why, what happened?"
21994Why, what is it?
21994Why,said his Majesty, taking the silver cross out of his pocket,"did you not give this to Rosina?"
21994Yes, there it is; but what has that to do with it?
21994You see your way?
21994You, too, are plagued with an Elector?
21994_ An_ Elector? 21994 ''What do you know of Edwin and Morcar?'' 21994 ''_ Please do n''t eat me_,''did you say? 21994 And what am I to say to my mother when she asks why my arm is in a sling? 21994 And what are we to say to your mother?
21994And you know, of course, that the drops are not ordinary silver?
21994Are you an ambassador, maybe come to propose a match for me?
21994Are you the new singer?"
21994But what was the king to say in reply?
21994But where on earth can he be?
21994By the way, where_ is_ Jaqueline?"
21994Do n''t you think, Jaqueline, you might break it to him?
21994Does she know you''re out?"
21994Get the head stuffed, will you?
21994How am I to know whether he could make a good fight for it without all these fairy things?
21994I say, Rosalind, shall I shout to him through the magic horn, and tell him to bring her home here, on the magic carpet?"
21994I wonder if fathers and sons will ever understand each other, and get on well together?
21994I wonder if they shine in the dark?"
21994I wonder what the young rogue is about to- day?
21994If he dropped his Cap of Darkness in a fight with a giant, why who knows what might occur?"
21994Is it not predicted in the Cord of the Venerable Knots that I shall slay this monster?"
21994It consisted of seven drops of silver, set like this:{ The drops: p72.jpg}"May I look at it?"
21994May I ask you where you got this, Rosina?"
21994May I inquire the reason which offers me the pleasure of this unexpected interview?"
21994No bad feeling, I hope, on either side?"
21994Now, shall we toss for corners?"
21994Oh, Jaqueline, was it honourable, or fair to the astronomers and men of science, to say nothing about it?
21994Only one tradesman, bowing very deep and blushing very much, said:"Your Majesty, will you hear me for one moment?"
21994Prince Ricardo stepped up to this boy, took off his cap, and said:"I think I have the honour of addressing the Prince of Wales?"
21994She was certain Dick would get himself into a scrape; how was she to help him?
21994She was fastened to a mountain top, but_ where_?
21994Should he see Ricardo bleeding at the feet of the abominable dwarf?
21994The marriage presents came in afterwards, of course, and among them, what do you think?
21994There is no one here, I hope, but respects and will keep the secret of Herr Schmidt''s confession?"
21994W. Charles,''if these are his initials?
21994We are certain that there_ are_ Earthquakers, otherwise how can we account for earthquakes?
21994What are you doing here?
21994What can kill such a monster?
21994What could the girl do to save the life of two princes, the hopes of one nation, and of a respectable minority in another?
21994What does he care, off after every adventure he can hear about?
21994What have you done with Jaqueline?
21994What is the name of the doomed foe?"
21994What was poor Jaqueline to do?
21994What''s the matter?
21994Where are the Seven- league Boots?
21994Where have you been?
21994Where is the Sword of Sharpness?
21994Where''s Gaeta, Dick?"
21994Who can it be?
21994Who is it?"
21994Who shall describe the joy of the maidens, and how often Jaqueline and Ricardo kissed each other?
21994Why did n''t you use the Cap of Darkness?
21994Why, I have been told that you used to ask girls dreadful puzzling questions, like''Who was Caesar Borgia?''
21994Why, what do you take me for?
21994and what will my father say?
21994are you hurt?"
21994said the Dwarf,"what are you doing on my grounds?
21994what make you here?"
21994what''s all this?
21994who are you?"
21994who''s your hatter?"
21994why wert thou not born to a private station?
21994you''re for a fight, are you?"
21994your Royal Highness, what''s this on the floor?"
36052Are yours magic boots?
36052But how can I stop him?
36052But how can we cut the wire?
36052But what am I to do?
36052But what did you wish for?
36052Did you hear that?
36052Do you remember what happened to your brother when he tried to kill little Red Riding Hood?
36052Go to sleep, you naughty cub, What makes you wriggle so? 36052 Have you any green cheese?"
36052How are all the folks in Chicken City?
36052How can we ever repay you?
36052How could I hurt a big rabbit?
36052How did you get here all by yourself? 36052 How is she?"
36052How shall I ever repay you?
36052I''ve things for a penny and some for two, and others for three, now what will it be?
36052Now who else shall we invite?
36052Now who else?
36052Now will you be good?
36052Shall I let him go?
36052Shall we ask the Ragged Rabbit Giant?
36052Shall we go in?
36052What are you doing out here by my wood? 36052 What can I do for you two gentlemen bunnies?"
36052What do you want?
36052What have you got here?
36052What have you got in that paper bag tied up so nicely?
36052What kind of lanterns have you?
36052What shall we do?
36052What will you give me for it?
36052What''s the name of the little girl?
36052What''s the nice thing you mention?
36052Where are you going?
36052Where has that dog gone?
36052Where shall we go now?
36052Who are you?
36052Who are you?
36052Who can it be?
36052Who is singing?
36052Who told you I had a Wishing Egg?
36052Who''s eye is watching us?
36052Will you sell me the one you are making?
36052A watch or a ring or a diamond stud, Or a purple velvet vest?"
36052A.?"
36052And was n''t it wonderful?
36052And you do n''t suppose for a minute that Little Jack Rabbit answers"no"in the next story, do you?
36052Ant?"
36052But what are you going to do?
36052Do n''t you know that this is n''t the time of year for strawberries?"
36052He ran out of the house, down to the gate, and called out to that great big giant:"Have you a little boy at home?"
36052How dare you act like a couple of thieves And my little pet blue bird take?"
36052I''ve lost an ear What shall I ever do?
36052JACK SPRITE"Oh, dear me,"said Mrs. Daisy Duck, Uncle John Hare''s old lady housekeeper, you know,"why do n''t they get home?"
36052Oh, wo n''t you take me for a ride?
36052Stay fast to that tree all the rest of your life, or walk about like other people?"
36052Then the funny little old man pulled out his hand, and, would you believe it?
36052Then what do you suppose little Benjamin Meadow Mouse said?
36052Was n''t that a wonderful automobile to have?
36052What shall I do?"
36052What''s this house coming to?
36052Will you give me a ride in your Bunnymobile?
36052said Mrs. Daisy Duck,"What shall we do?"
31763''''Tis no bad thing to have when one wants it,''replied Dick;''and may be now the fishes have the understanding to bring up whatever you bid them?''
31763''A what?''
31763''And is it a fishy woman you''d marry?
31763''And pray, Mr. Pratt,''inquired another gentleman,''who_ is_ Teigue?''
31763''And were n''t you afraid?''
31763''And where''s my estates, plaze your holiness?''
31763''And wherefore?''
31763''And who''s your father, my duck?''
31763''And why, O Royal Bard?''
31763''And yourself, then, is a real king''s daughter?''
31763''And,''continued the little woman,''whoever wins the kemp wins a husband?''
31763''Arrah, be easy now, Paddy M''Dermid,''said the greyhound;''do n''t I know very well what you are looking for?''
31763''As much as you like,''says Owld Nick;''how much will you have?''
31763''Bad manners to you( and where''s the use of my wishing you what you have already?
31763''But will you promise me my choice of dyin''one partic''lar way?''
31763''But,''remarked a gentleman to young Mr. Pratt,''your father said he broke a plate; how did he get it without your seeing him?''
31763''But,''says he,''I would n''t like to go wid you alive, and sure it''s all the same to you, alive or dead?''
31763''Do you know who I am,''says the king,''that you make so free, good man?''
31763''Do you see all those heads that are stuck up there?
31763''Erra, what''s that you''re saying, you great gomeril?''
31763''For what, plaze your majesty?''
31763''Have you much money?''
31763''Have you no news on your travels?''
31763''Ho, ho, ho!--look at me-- look at me: do you see the wind, Colonel Pratt?
31763''How dar''you say dirty to the greatest hand in Ireland?''
31763''How does he know that you are watching?''
31763''I know I am, at least so the neighbours always tell me-- but what hurt?
31763''Is it stalin''my horse you are, honest man?''
31763''Is it the head- without- body that came again?''
31763''Is it thinking anybody would go make a_ muthaun_ of himself to give the like for that saucer?''
31763''Is n''t it?''
31763''Is that all?''
31763''Is this to be the fruit of that unhappy present?
31763''Lord, be good to me, what''s that?''
31763''Man,''said the Merrow,''what will you do with me if you wo n''t eat me?''
31763''Money,''repeated the Merrow,''what''s money?''
31763''Musha, Paddy M''Dermid,''said he,''what would you be looking after in that grave of a hole you''re diggin''there?''
31763''Now, colonel, have you courage to take the leap?
31763''O yes, to be sure, and why would n''t we?
31763''Oh ho,''said Paddy,''you are there, are you?
31763''Oh, Thady dear, and what''ll the children do then?''
31763''See these four pieces for a specimen,''showing him some he had taken from his own hiding hole:''what do you think of that for a story?''
31763''Setanta,''said he at length,''art thou yet sixteen years of age?''
31763''So that is the way with you, is it?''
31763''So you are here again, Paddy?''
31763''So,''said the strange woman,''there''s to be a great kemp in Shaun Buie M''Gaveran''s?''
31763''Sure, do n''t you see there,''says the king, pointin''at the shield,''that he killed three score and tin at one blow?
31763''That bates all I ever seen or heerd,''says the colonel, sthrivin''to rally and make another offer;''is there anything you_ ca n''t_ do?''
31763''To be sure I have,''says the king,_ moighty high_;''sure, ai n''t I the King o''Dublin?''
31763''To heaven,_ ershishin_?
31763''Was it dead or alive, the person you saw?''
31763''Well, Paddy M''Dermid,''said the hound,''since you will have money, you must; but say, how much will satisfy you?''
31763''Well, did you see Teigue?''
31763''Well, suppose I give you work?''
31763''Well, suppose they christened him twice as much,''says the wife;''sure, what''s that to uz?''
31763''Well,''says the divil, and he grinn''d and wagg''d his tail, all as one as a dog when he''s plaised;''what do you say now?''
31763''Were n''t you afraid?''
31763''Were you afraid at all?''
31763''What are the three most beautiful objects in the creation?''
31763''What is it you''re for selling, you say?''
31763''What''s her name?''
31763''What''s your name, my darling?''
31763''When will you undhertake the job, then?''
31763''Who is that?''
31763''Why then,''said the first man,''and what''s that to you, for a prying meddler?
31763''Why, thin, bad luck to your impidence,''says the waiver;''would no place sarve you but that?
31763''Why, you ongrateful little vagabone, was the like ever given to any man before?''
31763''You have?''
31763), have n''t I a right to ask the price of what''s in the fair?''
31763And each day he asked,''How fares it with my noble guests?''
31763And there''s Mr. Cole: did you ever see such a fellow?
31763And what brings you here?''
31763And when Guaire asked him again,''How fares my noble guest, and this great and excellent people?''
31763But what evil have I done, O Irusan, son of Arusan?
31763But when Seanchan saw her he asked:''Who sent thee hither, and why hast thou brought me food?''
31763Colonel Pratt, do you see Teigue now?
31763Do you think the Irish peasant would be so full of poetry if he had not his fairies?
31763Erra, let us see''em, maybe you would?''
31763Has Guaire''s hospitality ended in this?''
31763How could I touch thy food?''
31763How does he know about the spoons?
31763I do n''t know who you are, nor where you live; how then can I ever find out your name?''
31763Is it I eat you, my pet?
31763Is it not so?''
31763Is it strange, then, if her fairies have not the fantastic glories of the fairies you and I are wo nt to see in picture- books and read of in stories?
31763John Sheehan was confounded by this address from his invisible persecutor, but nevertheless he mustered courage enough to say,''Who are you?
31763Mr. Bell, here I am-- here''s Teigue-- why do n''t you catch him?
31763Mr. Pratt, will you starve poor Teigue?
31763Mr. Pratt, wo n''t you give poor Teigue some dinner?
31763Must I be dark for ever and ever?
31763Now look at Teigue-- why do n''t you look at him?
31763Owney bowed, and she put the questions as follows:''What is that which is the sweetest thing in the world?''
31763Paddy scratched his conlaan, and after a while said--''How much will your honour give me?''
31763Says one to the other,''Who''ll turn the spit?''
31763So when one of the men came after me and touched me on the shoulder with a''Michael Hart, can you tell a story now?''
31763There was a young man at the door who said to him--''How far are you going, or what are you in search of?''
31763What are the three most beautiful things in the creation?''
31763What was to be done?
31763What''s a few tinpennies to save a man from want?
31763When Lawrence got a hold of it, it began screeching, and at last it asked Lawrence--''Are you not afraid?''
31763Who is it at all?''
31763Wo n''t you sit an''rest you?''
31763You know the king of Munster''s daughter?''
31763[ Footnote 13: Does he say?]
31763a fine company you have there, and plenty of everything that''s good; sure you wo n''t forget poor Teigue?''
31763and am I never more to look upon that sweet countenance, that even in my blindness is not entirely shut out from me?''
31763and is it spyling my brekquest yiz are, you dirty bastes?''
31763and what in the wide world is a man without a wife?
31763colonel, is n''t he here?
31763do you hear him?
31763exclaimed the saint;''is that the Chief Bard of Erin on the back of a cat?
31763is it how I''d feel myself you''d want to know?''
31763may be you have not such things as beds down under the water?''
31763raal chaney-- who''ll be buying?''
31763said he,''will you never stop bawling?
31763said the Merrow,''did you never hear of my father?
31763says Owld Nick,''is that the way wid you?''
31763says he,''who''s there?''
31763says the cat that was making the speech,''what do you think we care for your Owney, or Owney- na- peak?''
31763that alters the case entirely,''replied the Priest;''why there''s some reason now in what you say: why did n''t you tell me this before?
31763there was no living soul could tell it to him but Tim Barrett, and he''s far enough off in the wilds of Botany Bay now, so how could he know it?
31763thinks Owney to himself,''did anybody ever hear the aiqual of this?''
31763what a fool you are; do you think Teigue is going to show himself to you in the field, there?
31763what do you want to know what it is he''s for selling?''
31763what is to become of me now?''
31763who are you, friend?''
18614And did you hear me call?
18614And does it only mean another way in which you do them good though they think you are doing them ill?
18614And drown everybody?
18614And drown the men and women in it? 18614 And now, what will you do with it?"
18614And now, will you sell me old Diamond?
18614Anything else?
18614Are you North Wind?
18614Are you ready, Diamond?
18614Are you the driver of this cab?
18614Are you the fairy that herds the bees?
18614As high up as that?
18614But how can you carry them there if you never saw the place? 18614 But how shall I get home again,"cried Diamond,"if you do n''t wait for me?"
18614But please, North Wind, where''s the use? 18614 But what for?
18614Can you read?
18614Did n''t I, North Wind? 18614 Did she hear, North Wind?"
18614Did she know we were trying to help her-- and will it help her?
18614Do n''t they always let you in?
18614Do they sing songs there?
18614Do you remember having to go through me to get into the country at my back?
18614Do you remember the song you made up here in this meadow to sing to the baby?
18614Do you see this young snip?
18614Do you think I care how big or how little I am? 18614 Does loving a thing make it yours?"
18614Have n''t we? 18614 Have you been sitting here ever since I went through you, dear North Wind?
18614Have you had enough of your old home already?
18614How could anything be too good to be true? 18614 How did you do that?"
18614How was that?
18614I did n''t know-- who are you, please?
18614Is it because its soul is gone? 18614 Is it like what''s in my book?"
18614Is n''t it? 18614 Is the storm over, North Wind?"
18614Nanny, do you know me?
18614Oh, please, North Wind,cried Diamond,"wo n''t you help that little girl?"
18614The dream-- if it_ is_ a dream-- is a pleasant one, is it not?
18614Then will you promise not to blow in my face if I open your window?
18614Was n''t it really North Wind?
18614Well, if I were to turn to an ugly shape again, would you still wish I were not a dream?
18614Well?
18614Were you the shooting star?
18614What can it mean?
18614What do you mean, little boy, by closing up my window?
18614What do you want them for?
18614What does it matter?
18614What is it about Nanny?
18614What is it, mother?
18614What is that?
18614What is the matter, mother?
18614What is up here?
18614What is your name, little boy?
18614What window?
18614Where is that, sir?
18614Where is the tiger?
18614Who are you, please?
18614Whom do you live with?
18614Why do you do like this? 18614 Why is that, do you think?"
18614Wife,said the cabman,"did you see that angel?"
18614Will you go with me now, little Diamond?
18614Will you take your head out of the bed- clothes?
18614Wo n''t you come out and see the cab, Diamond?
18614Would you be afraid to sleep alone, Diamond?
18614You ca n''t mean this little hole? 18614 You have not forgotten the lovely river as clear as glass that ran over and through the grass and flowers, have you?
18614You stupid Diamond, have you never seen me before?
18614You would like this room, then, Diamond?
18614And every six- pence is something, is n''t it?"
18614And how is it that you never saw it?"
18614And is n''t it better he should live a little hard himself and prove himself to be an honest man who does what he says he''ll do?
18614And somebody must first be good to you, do n''t you think, before you can learn how to be good to any body else?
18614And what can you do?"
18614And what did he find?
18614And what did he hear?
18614And when she went after them, she could not find the old sheep at all-- only some lambs-- twice as many new lambs?"
18614Besides, would you not have forgotten me wholly when you woke again?
18614But did I hurt you at all, dear boy?
18614But how did you come to us, you dear?
18614But the money is all gone and what are we to do?"
18614But what could he do?
18614But where was I in my dream?
18614But who do you think came to his rescue?
18614But,"he added,"how shall I get my clothes?
18614Ca n''t you read yet?"
18614Could it have been North Wind doing the reading in his mother''s voice?
18614Diamond overheard a doctor say to Mr. Raymond,"How do you suppose the little chap knew what to do about Nanny?"
18614Diamond was frightened when he heard her sobbing and said,"Is father worse?"
18614Did n''t you see me behind the leaves of the primrose?
18614Did n''t you see them blowing?
18614Did you sink the ship?"
18614Do n''t you see that it is morning now?
18614Do you see that man over there on the river in the boat who is just floating about?
18614Do you see that round thing on the deck like the top of a drum?
18614Do you think anything would make him believe that your master had used me right and as he promised he would?
18614He one day met a cabman who was a friend of his and this friend said to him,"Why do n''t you set up as a cabman yourself-- and buy a cab?"
18614Her husband was somehow very sorry now and ashamed of the misery he had caused-- was it the song of the river which Diamond had sung that caused it?
18614How am I to know that it is not a dream?"
18614How could I be able to love you as I do if you were not there at all, you know?
18614How could you know how to put on such a beautiful face if you did not love me and love all the rest too?
18614Is n''t that so?
18614It wo n''t take you long to get home from here, will it, North Wind?"
18614Love makes the only_ my- ness_, does n''t it, mother?"
18614Must you go and sink the ship?
18614Nor the soft sweet songs it was always singing?"
18614Now will you come?"
18614Now, can you?"
18614One of them was about his nest up in the beech tree and it ran like this: What would you see if I took you up To my little nest in the air?
18614Only will you always remember, if you should hear it, not to be the least afraid of it-- or of me?
18614Or if I did, I could not love a fancy of my own like that, could I?"
18614Should I be able to see out?"
18614The girl put the penny in her pocket and Diamond asked,"Is she as cruel as ever?"
18614The next morning, he sang to the baby more cheerily than ever and here is part of the song he sung: Where did you come from, Baby dear?
18614The question is what will she do when they send her out again?"
18614Was it the wind?
18614Was somebody talking to him?
18614What did I see?"
18614What do you see now?"
18614What horse was it that looked so familiar?
18614What would you do if I took you there, To my little nest in the tree?
18614What would you get in the top of the tree, For all your crying and grief?
18614What?
18614When she made him a courtesy, he looked at her again and said,"Where do you live, my child?"
18614When winter comes Will it die?
18614Where did you get this pearly ear?
18614Where did you get your eyes so blue?
18614Who knows?"
18614Why should I?
18614Will you promise, Diamond?"
18614Will you tell your father what I say and see if he wants to take charge of him?"
18614Would you be afraid of me if you had to go through me again?"
18614Yes, that must be it, is it not, North Wind?"
18614You are not just a dream, dear North Wind, are you?
18614You love me when you are not with me, do n''t you?"
18614You remember I was a wolf once-- don''t you?"
18614asked North Wind,"about Bo- peep''s sheep that ran away from her to follow after the sun?
18614asked North Wind,"after the long, long, long ride in the ship and the journey on the iceberg?"
35820''Are you a stranger in this place, that you ask such questions?'' 35820 ''Buy a fiddle, my young master?''
35820''Did you never go there?'' 35820 ''Fair lady,''said Civil,''tell me what means this quietness, and where are all the merry company?''
35820''Good father,''he said,''I pray you tell me what sport or pastime have the people of this valley?'' 35820 ''How is that?''
35820''Husband,''said Fairfeather,''you should n''t have such mean thoughts: how could one eat barley bread on the way to a palace? 35820 ''If my feet grow large,''said the boy to himself,''how shall I dance with them?''
35820''Say you so?'' 35820 ''That is bad news,''said Merrymind;''but since I am here, please to tell me why were such laws made, and what is the story of this valley?''
35820''What''s the matter, friend?'' 35820 ''Who are you?''
35820What ignorant country girl are you?
35820Where did you get a grandmother?
35820Where does it grow?
35820Why came it not, when o''er my life A cloud of darkness hung, When years were lost in fruitless strife, But still my heart was young? 35820 ''Can you tell me which way that doublet went?'' 35820 ''Did you never see a man coming down from a back window before?'' 35820 ''I hope you will drink that toast, and may we never have a worse fire on Christmas-- but what is that?'' 35820 ''Is that your kitchen- fire?'' 35820 ''What is the news in your neighbourhood?'' 35820 ''What is the news in your neighbourhood?'' 35820 ''What is the news in your neighbourhood?'' 35820 ''Where did you hear of the like? 35820 Childe Charity slept soundly, but every morning the servants would say to her--''What great light and fine talking was that in your back garret?''
35820How did you like the court, and have you made your fortune?''
35820How hath the shower forgot the spring, And fallen on Autumn''s withering?"
35820How in the world did he find the way?''
35820How was he to get home to his mother?
35820Let them go with the princess: who knows but our sorrow may be lessened?''
35820Much as the cobblers had been surprised, they were still more so when it said--"''Good gentlemen, what season is this?''
35820One day the king''s attention being drawn to it by the chief page, his majesty inquired why Spare did n''t give it to a beggar?
35820She, good woman, said if he laid out one penny ill, he might lay out the next better; and who knew but his fiddle would be of use some day?
35820Sometimes the old woman said,''Child, why do n''t you make this bed softer?
35820Tell me, are you not the children of mighty kings?
35820Were you not reared in palaces?''
35820What business has a common little girl with anything so amusing?"
35820What will your highness please that we do next?''
35820What will your highness please that we do next?''
35820What would they say to our golden ones?
35820Whence come ye so late?
35820Where will you sleep-- by my kitchen fire, or in that cold cottage?''
35820Which of you can shear best?''
35820and what would the old dame think when the dark night came without bringing him home?
35820and why are your blankets so thin?''
35820cried the mother,''what have ye done to- day to help our living?''
35820said the old woman;''where is the good in it?''
35820she said,''that sit so late beside my well?''
32964Ah, is that so?
32964And now,said Jenny Wren,"what about yourself, my Lord Cat?"
32964And so you were the little cat who was with him, were you?
32964And what brings you so far from there?
32964Are they wet inside?
32964Are you sure there is n''t?
32964Are you sure?
32964Are you the man who jumped into the bramble bush?
32964But how are you going to catch him? 32964 But who ever saw a red hill?"
32964But why did you tell tales on your brothers?
32964Can I help you, miss?
32964Can you direct me to the wise man who lives in yonder village?
32964Did n''t you see me catch him just before he reached the gate?
32964Did you ever hear the conundrum in rhyme about''Thirty white horses upon a red hill, Now they tramp, now they champ, Now they all stand still''?"
32964Did you ever see anything like children?
32964Did you forget to save some pie crust for the little mouse and her two children?
32964Did you happen to find it?
32964Did you not hear, my lord?
32964Did you see a runaway horse?
32964Did you see our mittens?
32964Do lords tend their own steeds? 32964 Do n''t you feel it?
32964Do n''t you see it''s only a little fairy?
32964Do n''t you want something to eat?
32964Do you imagine I wear boots on my front paws?
32964Do you know how to ride?
32964Do you know where the Willow Tree Inn is?
32964Do you want a penny very much?
32964Do you want that pretty blue one?
32964Does it?
32964Does your little Boy Blue go to sleep in a haystack?
32964Give us a ride?
32964Has the horrid old rat really gone?
32964Have you an automobile?
32964Have you looked in the barn?
32964Have you lost a necklace of pearls?
32964He has good legs, has he not?
32964How could you be such a bad old thing?
32964How did you guess?
32964How did you lose him?
32964How do I know my Good Gray Horse can fly with these wings?
32964How do you do, my dear Puss, Junior?
32964How do you know?
32964How long have you been looking for your father?
32964How long will it take to make one?
32964How shall I repay you?
32964I merely inquired,replied Puss, haughtily,"if you could direct me to the wise man in yonder town?"
32964Is n''t he a lovely cat?
32964Is n''t it lovely?
32964Is n''t this great?
32964May I put up my Good Gray Horse for the night?
32964My good woman,said Puss, Junior, politely raising his cap as he drew in his Good Gray Horse,"can you tell me where I may find a shoemaker?"
32964Now, my good Sir Cat, will you believe that fairies have power?
32964Now, where''s the shop with the silken gowns?
32964Oh, Puss, Junior, what shall I do?
32964Oh, is that so?
32964Oh, mother dear, do you not hear That we have washed our mittens?
32964Oh, what shall I do?
32964Oh, where is Boy Blue? 32964 Oh, you are, are you?"
32964Otherwise, how can I mend it?
32964Shall I take you up to the gate?
32964So my fine Sir Cat would have a pair of shoes?
32964So you like me better?
32964Well, what are you doing here?
32964Were you asleep?
32964What are you going to buy with it?
32964What are you going to do?
32964What are you looking for?
32964What are you trying to do?
32964What did you do with last month''s?
32964What did you say?
32964What do you think of my little husband?
32964What do you want?
32964What do you want?
32964What do you want?
32964What have you done?
32964What have you in your bag?
32964What other kind do you like?
32964What shall I do with my Good Gray Horse?
32964What shall I do?
32964What sort of a house is this?
32964What will you give?
32964What''s that to you?
32964What''s that?
32964Where are you going?
32964Where does he live?
32964Where is it?
32964Where shall I get another pair?
32964Where''s the candy shop?
32964Who could have taken it out?
32964Who''s afraid of three little kittens? 32964 Who''s there?"
32964Why do n''t you call me Kitty?
32964Why do n''t you take a nap?
32964Why, have you enough money?
32964Will you need two pair?
32964Will you?
32964Would you really?
32964You do n''t mean to tell me you made that wonderful shoe?
32964All of a sudden the door opened and a little old woman, bent and withered, asked, in a shrill voice:"How dare you come down to our Hollow Stump hall?
32964And shall I tell you why?
32964And when they saw him they said to one another,"This little dog has been up to mischief, for if not, why should he run so fast?"
32964And would he take out his sword and show it to her?
32964And, would you believe it?
32964But just then a big black crow, who was sitting on a fence post, called out:"Where are you going so fast, Sir Cat?
32964But where is the money to buy all that, Unless I may borrow from Sir Pussy Cat?"
32964Ca n''t you hear the gentleman cat addressing your master?"
32964Can you make your way?"
32964Could it have been the noble Puss in Boots?"
32964Do you think it belongs to the Queen of Hearts?"
32964Do you understand?"
32964Do you wish to shake me to bits?"
32964He was a jolly- looking bee, and presently he said to Puss,"Whither are you bound, my good Sir Cat?"
32964How will anyone believe that I am Puss in Boots, Junior, if I have no boots?"
32964Jump into the hollow stump and climb down?
32964Little Robin Redbreast jumped upon a wall, Pussy cat jumped after him, and almost got a fall; Little Robin chirped and sang, and what did pussy say?
32964Now, how much do you want for your horse?"
32964Otherwise, how would I have been able to return the bicycle to the innkeeper?"
32964See what I''m doing-- carrying you all so nicely on my big, broad back?"
32964THE COBBLER"CAN you make me a pair of boots?"
32964The Queen looked up at the King and said,"Is he not a dear little cat?"
32964The old woman smiled and said:"What shoemaker makes shoes without leather, With all the four elements put together?
32964Then what do you think he did?
32964Was n''t that a dainty dish To set before the king?
32964What shall I do?"
32964What shall we do?"
32964What''s all this noise?"
32964Where did I leave off in the last story?
32964Will wonders never cease until I have found my dear father, Puss in Boots?"
32964Would it be asking too much if I might sleep on your front porch?"
32964Would you like to ride with me?"
32964[ Illustration]"May I put my Good Gray Horse in your barn?"
32964[ Illustration]"Why do n''t you take off your mittens?"
39385Wouldst take my only crutch? 39385 ''Who''ll cheer us in our doldrums?'' 39385 ''Who''ll help us bear our troubles by making us forget them? 39385 And now, if thou hast lived through this one day, why not another? 39385 Art brave enough to lift the gauntlet that Despair flings down and wage this warfare to thy very grave?''
39385Canst think of any other?"
39385Did not the very stars foretell success?
39385How can I endure that sight day after day when my arms must remain for ever empty?
39385How can_ I_ play such a part?"
39385Now he stood and gazed upon the prostrate man who turned away his face and would not answer his low- spoken words:"What ails thee, brother?"
39385Was not he born for conquest?
39385What matter that the thought of Vesta stabbed him nigh to madness when he looked on hearth- fires that could never blaze for him?
39385Why not lie here and starve, and thus force Death to turn the key, and break the manacles which bind me to my misery?"
39385Why struggle any longer''gainst my lot?
32219A hundred thousand?
32219Am I Dutch Michael, who gives away riches and cold hearts? 32219 And is it not so?"
32219And is that all that you have to give me?
32219And so you have slain your wife?
32219And supposing I myself were that very man?
32219But how can one manage to avoid it? 32219 But if a man has no heart?"
32219But tell me, now you know what I mean, what will happen to our hearts?
32219But what do they carry in their breasts in place of these?
32219But,he asked,"by what awkward negligence can a man have lost his shadow?"
32219Can stone- hearts wish for anything?
32219Can you feel your heart? 32219 Can you settle or not?"
32219Did I make the bargain with you?
32219Did they want to strip the skin from your back in order to sell it for the benefit of your creditors? 32219 Do you speak of the natural shadow?"
32219For a person,said I,"who most unfortunately has lost his shadow, could you paint a false one?"
32219Give you my heart?
32219Have you had enough?
32219Have you your own heart again, or is the cold stone still in your breast?
32219How do you feel now?
32219I have nothing left to live for; I could never be happy again; besides what is there for me to do now that I am left alone in the world? 32219 Is not this behaving like an old woman?
32219My dear fellow, why worry about it?
32219Nothing else, Peter?
32219Nothing else?
32219Of what use to me is my factory and all my glass? 32219 So- ho?
32219So- ho?
32219Strike a bargain?
32219That man who looks like a piece of thread just escaped from a tailor''s needle?
32219Then they bury one''s heart with one?
32219This day?
32219What am I to do now with my horses and carts?
32219What can he get out of me? 32219 What can it signify?"
32219What do you mean by that? 32219 What do you want with me, Peter Munk?"
32219What ever is the matter with you?
32219What profit could it be to me to bring your mortal body to the gallows? 32219 What sort of person was he?"
32219What?
32219Where is he? 32219 Who are you?"
32219Why are you weeping, Charcoal- Peter?
32219_ A heart of marble?_ But, if it is as you say, Master Dutch Michael, such a thing must feel very cold inside one''s bosom.
32219All the blood left Peter''s face as he replied:"So, it is you, Master Guardian?
32219Am I, then, so far advanced into the vale of years?
32219And how should he answer Another, to Whom all belongs-- woods, seas, hills and the lives of human beings?
32219And that is the reason why one hears of so many shipwrecks; how otherwise could a fine, strong ship, as big as a church, sink in the open sea?
32219And what sort of answer would he give the old man, his father- in- law, if he should come and demand:"Where is my daughter, your wife?"
32219And why should a sensible fellow such as you be troubled with such things as misfortune or wounded pride?
32219And you, mother!--Ah, how can you ever pardon me?"
32219Are you not ashamed of yourself, you stupid Peter, to cheat yourself of so good a chance of happiness?
32219Are you trying to make a fool of me?
32219But one day Master Peter, who had been watching her, spoke to her roughly and angrily:"Why are you wasting my fortune on rascals and vagabonds?
32219But supposing he should happen to have none at all, for once?
32219But what happened?
32219But why detail to you the oft- repeated story which I have so often heard from yourself?
32219CHAPTER II Of what use were wings to a man fast bound in chains of iron?
32219Can not you put a little life into this stone heart?
32219Chamisso, what is the activity of man?
32219Come, rise up, and finish quickly what you were going to do; or perhaps you have changed your determination, and prefer to lie groaning there?"
32219Come, tell me, where did you feel most anguish?"
32219Did I ever seize you by the throat, to tear out of your body that valuable soul I so ardently wish to possess?
32219Did I ever set my servant to attack you, to get back my purse, or attempt to run off with it from you?"
32219Did I not tell you not to wish too hastily?
32219Did you bring anything with you into the house that you might give away?
32219Did you get a pain in your stomach when the bailiff appeared just now and turned you out of doors?
32219Do you know the extent of Mr. Rascal''s influence and wealth?
32219Do you know what it is to be afraid, or sorry, or remorseful?"
32219Do you not also feel an inward satisfaction in thus paying a pious tribute of gratitude and love to your old master and friend?"
32219Do you suggest that I have no heart?"
32219Do you suppose that here in Cologne they want all the timber which comes from the Black Forest for their own use?
32219Do you think I did not come across dozens of such conjuring tricks when on my travels?
32219Do you think it is possible to make such a thing as that out of wax?"
32219Do you think that I have not seen you begging of that pigmy yonder?"
32219Excuse the boldness of my proposal; but perhaps you would have no objection to sell me your shadow?"
32219Ezekiel looked at him in amazement, then glanced around to make sure nobody was within earshot, and spoke:"How do you know that?
32219For the love of Heaven tell me what you were singing?"
32219Had she recognised me?
32219Has fate dealt so harshly with you as to render you desirous of death?"
32219Have you no blood in your veins?"
32219He drew back a couple of steps, and coolly answered,"Count Peter, may I beg most respectfully that you will favour me with a sight of your shadow?
32219How will your money help you, which, according to your wish, is only for the tavern, and will only stay there like that of the wretched Dance- King?
32219I felt that I must adopt a softer tone, and replied,"But, Rascal, my good fellow, who can have put such strange ideas into your head?
32219I have a request to make,--would you most graciously be pleased to allow me--?"
32219I now resumed the conversation:--"But, sir-- excuse your humble servant-- I am at a loss to comprehend your meaning,--my shadow!--how can I?"
32219Imagine, my friend, what I then set about?
32219Is it not as cold as ice?
32219Is this your gratitude for all my kindness to you?
32219Must I serve him in some way; or what else will he require of me?"
32219My detested companion looked at me indignantly, and whispered,"Can you endure this?
32219Perhaps, your own heart beats no longer?"
32219Shall I own the truth?
32219Speak my child: will you not?"
32219Tell me: how many hundred thalers do you want to begin with?"
32219The mother now came out, and the following conversation took place:"What is Minna doing?"
32219The other day when they called you a cheat and a villain, was it in your head that you felt the disgrace?
32219Then I am to be blamed for your misfortunes?
32219They have showered blessings on your head, and wished you good health; but did you ever feel any better for that?
32219To which a deep voice replied:"Just come in, Peter?
32219What could I do?
32219What good will your dancing be to your mother or to yourself?
32219What have I to offer him?
32219What profit have those who are able to appear to be happy for a year or two, only at the cost of misery hereafter?
32219What was I to think of so extraordinary a proposal?
32219Why should one''s heart be warm?
32219[ Illustration: Peter Munk, what are you doing in the pine grove?]
32219[ Illustration:"Have you had enough?"
32219_ I_ like to spend it-- why should not he?
32219he answered;"do you not perceive who I am?
32219he cried,"what was it you made to rhyme with''grow''?
32219he exclaimed;"and why not?"
32219or, better still, give me back my old heart?
32219thought I,"art thou in search of thy master?
32219what are you doing in the Pine- grove?"
32219what good can that do?"
15664A crust, thou say''st? 15664 And are you a skillful huntsman now?"
15664And did you not rub your eyes with the red salve then?
15664And how can I free you from your enchantment?
15664And is he a practical huntsman?
15664And now may I marry Gretchen?
15664And what would you like to have, Claus?
15664Are you ready to go with me now, Jacob?
15664Are you warm enough in winter?
15664But what is it?
15664But when the speckled hen lays no more eggs, what shall we do then?
15664But when we have spent the money for them, what then?
15664But where is the wine?
15664Did''ee hear un, dame?
15664Do you want to take service, my friend?
15664Father Grimes,said he,"how shall I get rid of my boggart?"
15664Have you brought the apple?
15664Have you enough clothes to cover you?
15664Have you enough to drink?
15664Have you enough to eat?
15664How do you find yourself, Claus?
15664How do you find yourself, Hans?
15664How do you find yourself, Jacob?
15664How,said the Saint,"can one so good Go lacking of his daily food, Go lacking means to aid the poor, Yet weep to turn them from his door?
15664Is that all?
15664Is the King at home, my dear?
15664My dear little child, thou art wise, though so young now; how shall we get money to pay our rent?
15664See, Jacob,said she,"what makes you so down in the mouth?"
15664So Jacob wants to marry Gretchen, does he?
15664So, Georgie,said he,"you''re leavin''th''ould house at last?"
15664Then what will you take to let me out, Hans Hecklemann?
15664Then whom will you have?
15664Very well,said the Prince, for he always answered the King in seemly fashion;"and who shall it be?"
15664Well then, thou gert oaf, why do n''t''ee let un in?
15664Well,said he,"what is the condition?"
15664What are you going to do about it?
15664What didst thou get for thy eggs, my little duck?
15664What do you want, Jacob?
15664What do you want, Son Hans?
15664What do you want?
15664What do you want?
15664What do you want?
15664What have you brought this time?
15664What is it that you want?
15664What is your name?
15664What sarvice will''ee do me, then?
15664What will you do for me if I let you out?
15664What will you do for me if I will let you out now?
15664What will you give me if I teach you to be as clever a huntsman as that?
15664What will you have now?
15664What will you have, sir?
15664What will you have, sir?
15664What will you have, sir?
15664What will you take to teach me?
15664What''s thy name, boggart?
15664Where are you going Sir?
15664Where are you going, Jacob?
15664Where did you get all that money, Claus?
15664Where did you lose it, Son Hans?
15664Where is the gentleman, dearie?
15664Which eye do you see me with?
15664Who be''ee, little man?
15664Why not the Princess of the Blue Mountain?
15664Why not the Princess of the Red Mountain?
15664Why not the Princess of the White Mountain?
15664Why not, indeed?
15664Why not, indeed?
15664Why not, indeed?
15664Will you give me back my bottle?
15664Will you let me in out of the cold, Georgie Griggs?
15664Will you marry me?
15664Will you strike a bargain with me for your eggs?
15664Will you strike a bargain?
15664Yes, good; but what is that?
156644 Now, what do you think I''ve heard it said Was his boat, his oar, his sail?
15664A DISAPPOINTMENT_ He_"I prithee, tell me wh''re you live?
15664And now methinks I hear you say,"Was ere a man so foolish, pray, Since first the world began?"
15664And now might he marry Gretchen?
15664And the other raven said,"_ Poor_ Claus, did you say, brother?
15664And were they married?
15664Are you ready?
15664As for the Herr Mayor, he thought that it was a nice, pretty little purse; but could it do this and that as he had said?
15664But could he find the place again?
15664But could the steward see her?
15664But how did Georgie Griggs get rid of his boggart?
15664But how did the cap come to be hanging from the bush?
15664But suppose that Claus had a thaler in his hand,_ then_ could he find the place again?
15664But what was in the paper?
15664But what_ is_ it?"
15664Can you not see?
15664Cold?
15664Do you not see the witch- hazel lying on the ground beside him?"
15664Dost''ee not see that there''s no turnin''o''un out?
15664Had she brought the apple for the King?
15664Had the woman no other daughter than these two?
15664Have_ you_ ever chanced to see One beg for crust that sneered at crumb In bright prosperity?
15664How now?
15664It was a nice, pretty little cap; what would the little underground man give her for it?
15664Might he have some of the money that stood around the room in the sacks?
15664No?
15664Now the north winds blow Wherefore do you come here, In the ice and snow?"
15664Now, a tree called to the breeze,"Little breeze, Will you come and have a play?"
15664Now, could Jacob shoot a feather out of the tail of the magpie flying over the trees yonder?
15664So in came Tommy Lamb, a little, curly- headed fellow, not any older than you,"What is it you want, Tommy?"
15664That was all that there was about it; and now would Christine please give it to him?
15664The next morning the old King went to the false Princess, and said,"What should be done to one who would do thus and so?"
15664The one raven said,"Oh yes; I see that, but what good does it do him?"
15664The wise man at home had told him this and that; now to which one of her daughters did the apple- tree belong?
15664Then the Prince called to her,"What shall I do to set you free from this enchantment?"
15664There came a knock at the door,"Who is it?"
15664Was she hungry?
15664Was she thirsty?
15664Was the King at home?
15664What does it mean?
15664What else would he give for this nice, dear little cap?
15664What is the meaning of all this?
15664What was it she saw?
15664What would I do with them?
15664What would you like to have?"
15664Where was she?
15664Who cares for that?
15664Who would not give his dinner and the coat off his back for such a key?
15664Why are you sleeping, Life of my life?"
15664Why are you sleeping, Life of my life?"
15664Why did he not look through the ring of his magic key?
15664Will you be seated?
15664Will you trade with me?"
15664Would Lord Peter let them see the bottle?
15664Would you winnow a whole peck of chaff for only three good grains?
15664Wouldst come a- begging here?
15664Yes, Peter would strike a bargain; what would the little gentleman give him for his eggs?
15664Yes, that was what Claus wanted; why else should he stand in the market- place with a straw in his mouth?
15664Yes, the King was at home; would he come and sit in the parlor?
15664Yes, the King was at home; would he come into the parlor and sit down?
15664You want to marry the daughter of the Herr Mayor?
15664[ Illustration: THE MASTER IS ANGRY] And the hen said to the cock,"What is it that he is leaving?"
15664[ Illustration] FARMER GRIGG''S BOGGART Did you ever hear of a boggart?
15664_ He_"Then will you marry me?
15664_ Now_, will you give me my hat?"
15664are you back again?"
15664are you back again?"
15664bellowed he,"are you here again?"
15664bellowed he,"what are you doing here?"
15664can you see me then?"
15664cried Georgie Griggs,"art thou there, thou black imp?
15664cried Hans,"has that stupid Claus found so much money that he has to measure it in a quart- pot?
15664said Gretchen,"and is that all?
15664was the girl to climb the apple- tree before the King and all of the court?
15664why do you chuckle, old woman;"says I,"As you climb up the hill- side so steep and so high?"
15664why, my old woman,"says I,"do you weep, When you laughed, as you climbed up the hill- side so steep?"
32095Am I?
32095And do you still run the little shop?
32095And how''s my little pussy- cat?
32095And is your name''Naggetty Nogg''?
32095And where are you going?
32095And who will bring them?
32095And will you have him, Jenny, Your husband now to be?
32095And you have n''t found him yet?
32095Any old chairs to mend?
32095Are farmers always so happy?
32095Are n''t we great friends?
32095Are they?
32095Are you a fairy cat? 32095 Are you really?"
32095But where did you get it?
32095But where is Jack?
32095But who is your little friend?
32095Can_ you_ jump over a lighted candlestick?
32095Did he have a good night''s sleep?
32095Did you ever hear of Puss in Boots?
32095Did you ever see any nicer boots than these?
32095Did you never hear the rhyme about the Man in the Moon?
32095Do n''t you get tired?
32095Do n''t you remember the second verse in_ Mother Goose_?
32095Do n''t you see you are in the way?
32095Do n''t you want to join us?
32095Do they?
32095Do you mean to tell me he has climbed up this giant bean- stalk?
32095Do you suppose your master would object?
32095Do you think she will like this?
32095Do you want to ride him in,asked Puss,"or shall I?"
32095Does n''t anybody care for you?
32095Good morning,she exclaimed, as she neared our two friends, and, turning to the cat with the fiddle, she said:"Are you ready?
32095Has he not yet climbed down the bean- stalk?
32095Have n''t you ever heard the song about me? 32095 Have you seen anything of my son Jack?"
32095Hot or cold?
32095How can we?
32095How dare he break his word?
32095How do you do,said Jack, coming forward,"and what does mother want?"
32095How do you doodle- do, my noble Sir Chanticleer?
32095How do you know my name?
32095How do you like it?
32095How do you like my joke?
32095How do you like my piggety pig?
32095How long have you been seeking your father?
32095How shall I waken him without startling him?
32095How shall we get across?
32095I mean, in what country?
32095I''m so tired to- day,she replied,"wo n''t you let me off just for once?"
32095If people must talk, why do they want to rhyme it out? 32095 Is anybody at home?"
32095Is that possible? 32095 Is that possible?"
32095Most exciting,said the Queen;"and so that is how you landed on Cranberry Tart Island?"
32095Nonsense,answered Puss, Jr."Who ever heard of a person sailing about in a cheese?"
32095Oh, I understand,replied Puss, Jr."Is that your house?"
32095Oh, it''s you, is it?
32095Puss in Boots? 32095 Tell me,"Puss, Jr., said to her as the music stopped for a moment,"why is the moon out to- day?
32095Then why did you?
32095These are the words you bade me say For a pair of new gloves on Easter Day,Are n''t they, dear Puss, Junior?"
32095This must be a royal cat, for otherwise why should he have a royal cobbler?
32095We are great friends, are n''t we, mousie?
32095Well, what would you do?
32095Well,said the donkey, after a pause,"can I do anything else for you, Sir Cat?
32095Were my tales not of sufficient interest to keep you awake?
32095What are you going to buy with the money?
32095What are you trying to do?
32095What can I do?
32095What did you do?
32095What do you know about Gingerbread Bridge?
32095What have we here?
32095What is it, Punch?
32095What is your master''s name?
32095What is your name?
32095What little bunny''s tail did you cut off to make it with?
32095What''s the matter now?
32095When shall we give her the present?
32095Where are the gloves for Easter Day?
32095Where are you going?
32095Where shall I buy them?
32095Where to?
32095Where was the castle?
32095Where''s my horse?
32095Where''s the sixpence?
32095Where''s your horse?
32095Which is the shorter road across Mother Goose Land?
32095Who will bring them to me, and how am I to know that a gold comb will be becoming or that silver wings will suit my complexion?
32095Why did you fall asleep?
32095Why did you leave me?
32095Why do n''t you fall any other place but right in front of my horse?
32095Why, do n''t you know?
32095Why, is he not in the employ of my Lord of Carabas?
32095Will I ever find anybody who really knows where my father lives?
32095Will it be perfectly safe?
32095Will you have a bowl of broth?
32095Wo n''t you come in?
32095Wo n''t you join our circus?
32095Wo n''t you show me the way?
32095Yes, where''s your steed?
32095Yes,answered their owner,"I''m rather proud of them myself; but what are your little brothers and sisters afraid of?"
32095You did, eh?
32095You did?
32095You would, eh?
32095''Pray, Mr. Rat, will you go with me?''
32095And they always pat my nose and say:"''How is old Naggetty Nogg to- day?''
32095But as soon as the unicorn saw the plum- cake he said to the lion:"What''s the use of fighting, Leon?
32095Ca n''t you get me some milk?"
32095Ca n''t you tell me where he lives?"
32095Can you mend them all?"
32095Closing the front door, he whispered through the keyhole,"Are the children in their beds?"
32095Do n''t you see the pig is getting away from us?"
32095Do your wishes always come true?"
32095Grundy?"
32095He forgot to cry,"Anybody want some delicious, pink lemonade?"
32095He pulled up his good gray horse:"A pair of new gloves on Easter Day?
32095How do you think she will like my present?"
32095If I join your circus how am I to find my dear father?"
32095In a sleepy voice he asked,"And has the mother gone to the mill to get the meal for the cake?"
32095Is that what you want the most?"
32095Is this the way that you repay a useful friend like me?"
32095Just then Wee Willie Winkie ran down the stairs, crying:"Are the children in their beds?
32095Listen to Parson Rook:"And will you have her, Robin, To be your wedded wife?"
32095Little Robin Redbreast jumped upon a wall, Pussy- Cat jumped after him, and almost got a fall; Little Robin chirp''d and sang, and what did Pussy say?
32095Mouse,"and I think, now that we have seen all we have, we had better return, for who knows when he may awake?"
32095Mrs. Porker, for that was her name, turned and looked at him, as much as to say,"Where did you come from?"
32095Now wo n''t you bring me a pair for Easter Day?"
32095Puss evidently forgot for the moment that all_ Mother Goose_ animals are very intelligent, for otherwise how would they have been celebrated in rhyme?
32095Puss in Boots?"
32095Puss watched them out of sight, then he heard the parson begin again:"Oh, then,"says Parson Rook,"Who gives this maid away?"
32095So what do I do?
32095Taking the cigar out of his mouth, he answered,"How do you know my name?"
32095WHO IS A MAN''S MOST FAITHFUL FRIEND?
32095What can I do to reward you?"
32095While they were wondering what to do, a muskrat swam up to the bank and said:"Why do n''t you walk over Beaver Dam?
32095Who is there more loved, I would like to know, than Robin Redbreast and little Jenny Wren?"
32095Will you allow me not to break my habit of going to bed early?"
32095Would Puss, Jr., dare jump through it?
32095You do n''t think for a moment Old King Cole could stand any more noise, do you?"
32095You''re not bashful, are you?"
32095[ Illustration:"AREN''T WE GREAT FRIENDS?"
32095[ Illustration:"WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO BUY WITH THE MONEY?"
32095and when does that happen?"
32095cried Puss in Boots, Jr."How do you know your mother will want visitors for lunch?"
32095said Puss, Jr."But suppose one has neither, what should such an unlucky one do?"
32095says Rowley,''Kind Mrs. Mousey for to see?''"
32095she cried,"what are you doing?"
32095thought Puss, Jr."Is that your''hush- a- by baby upon the tree- top''?"
37708''Tells the cranes where our hiding- places are''"''Where are you going?'' 37708 And can not I have supper with you?"
37708Are you hungry?
37708But what shall I do?
37708But when shall we know the secret?
37708But would you not like to go and swim in the river?
37708Can not I bring my bed into your garden and sleep there?
37708Did the turtle drop from the sky as a warning to us?
37708Did you count them?
37708How can I do it?
37708How can I fight two demons?
37708If your bed carried you across seven jungles and over three ranges of hills, do n''t you think it can take you up into the sky?
37708Is Nala here, and do you talk to her?
37708Is there a pond in the Golden Cave?
37708Tell me where she is?
37708Then he is n''t really a fish?
37708We are four brothers; will you be the fifth?
37708What do you think of this?
37708What is the matter?
37708What shall we call him?
37708Where are the Four Brothers?
37708Where are you going?
37708Where can we go?
37708Where did you get this?
37708Where is your drum?
37708Why must I do this?
37708Will you be one of us?
37708_Half of it is surely true,"she said aloud, and suddenly, from behind her, the jackal asked,"Which half is true?"
37708And the old tree asked,"Why do you want to know?"
37708Are there no others like me; is there only one Nazim?"
37708As soon as he had thrown himself into his great chair his oldest daughter asked him,"Have you got husbands for us yet?"
37708I want you, and what will you do without me?"
37708So she said to him one day,"Are you quite happy here, Athon- Rajah?"
37708The fakir sat very still for a long time when he heard what the Prince wanted, and then he asked,"Why do you seek the Princess Lalun?"
37708This made the turtle so angry that he wanted to say,"You miserable woman, what is it to you?"
37708What can we do for you in return?"
37708where are you?"
37708who can get husbands for four daughters all at once?"
39755Are all the prisoners chained so that they ca n''t fly away?
39755Are you sure it was a bird?
39755But Peter, how old are you?
39755But Peter,continued Wendy,"if you do n''t live with the fairies, where do you live?"
39755Peter, will you teach John and Michael to fly as well?
39755Ran away-- why?
39755Shall I do it for you?
39755Shall I give you a kiss?
39755She flew this way, have n''t you seen her?
39755Tink, where are you?
39755What will you call_ me_ if I join?
39755What''s that?
39755What''s your name?
39755Where do you live?
39755Who are they?
39755Who''s there?
39755But, Peter, why did you come to our nursery window?"
39755In his schoolboy days he had always thought a pirate''s life very attractive, so stepping forward, he said:"Will you call me Red- handed Jack?"
39755She sat right up in bed, and, not at all frightened, said:"Little boy, why are you crying?"
39755What were the Lost Boys to do in this terrible plight, when their leader was far away?
39755What would they do if they were too late in coming back, and found other children in their beds, other children being bathed and dressed by Nana?
39755What''s yours?"
39755Who are you, Pan?"
39755he whispered, and as then the light shone on the jug he went on:"Tink, do you know where they have put it?"
25913Abul Hassan, do you also say this is the jar Ali Cogia left with you?
25913Abul Hassan, is that so?
25913Ali Cogia, when did you say you placed this jar in the warehouse?
25913All that I have I owe to you, and shall I in return do you such an injury?
25913And do you go about nursing sick people?
25913And do you not think it possible they may have been kept a year or so?
25913And how does that happen?
25913And in which direction did your brothers go when they left you?
25913And it is only with your right eye you see me?
25913And now art thou content?
25913And now tell me,said he,"exactly what is my royal sceptre worth?"
25913And what have you done with the Princess?
25913And what is that? 25913 And what is this object?"
25913And when shall we be married?
25913And which eye did you rub with the salve?
25913And why do you keep that crooked stick behind the door? 25913 And why do you tremble and look at me so strangely?"
25913And you, Ali Cogia; have you any witnesses to prove there was gold in the jar when you left it in Abul Hassan''s warehouse?
25913Are you Dame Pridgett?
25913Are you a fool or do you take me for one? 25913 Are you ill?"
25913But do you live here alone?
25913But what case shall we take?
25913But where are you going?
25913But why do you seek the kingdom of Koshchei the Deathless, that terrible man?
25913Did you forget something?
25913Did you meet the Rakshas?
25913Do you not guess what I have come to speak to you about?
25913Do you think it could course down the hare we are chasing?
25913Has the King set another task that I must do?
25913Has your mother never told you that your life is bound up in something outside of yourself?
25913Have I done something wrong?
25913Have I not treated you well in all these years? 25913 Have you found out the secret of your life?"
25913Have you seen my greyhound, a sleek and handsome dog?
25913How can I marry a frog,said he,"and have her rule with me as my Princess?"
25913How can you say that?
25913How can you think it?
25913How is that?
25913How is this?
25913How long,said he,"is it possible to keep olives good?"
25913How should I guess? 25913 I hear you have a daughter who is so clever that no one in the kingdom can equal her; and is that so?"
25913Is he so lazy?
25913Is it again for nothing, or has something happened to you?
25913Is not the kingdom to be yours?
25913Is she still asleep among her reeds and rushes, or is she too hoarse to come?
25913Is that true?
25913Is this the jar you left with Abul Hassan?
25913Is this the only way to save my people?
25913Is this thy ring?
25913May I spread a handkerchief between old Whitey''s mouth and mine before I do it?
25913My dearest dear one, why are you so late to- night?
25913My poor man,said he,"how can you expect boiled beans to grow?
25913Oh, my dear Lala, what did I tell you?
25913Or do you wish to speak to me upon some business?
25913So you can see me, can you?
25913Tell me now, which of these is your son?
25913Tell me, beautiful one, who are you? 25913 Tell me,"said he,"what sound can be heard the farthest throughout the world?"
25913Tell me,said the feigned Cadi,"how long is it possible to keep olives?"
25913Then why are you here?
25913They are three beauties, I can tell you,said he,"but of what use are they as long as they remain as citrons?"
25913Well, and did you get what you set out to search for?
25913Well, and what is it?
25913What a beauty I am; why did no one ever tell me so? 25913 What ails you, my dear husband,"said the frog,"that you hang your head and are so downcast?"
25913What ails you, my dear husband?
25913What ails you, my son?
25913What ails you, my steed, that you stand there so sorrowful when all around rejoice?
25913What are you doing there?
25913What are you thinking of?
25913What became of the falcon that was here?
25913What do we want with that old hood?
25913What do you mean?
25913What do you mean?
25913What does the King demand of me now?
25913What dost thou want, old man?
25913What had we better do now?
25913What has happened?
25913What have I not told you?
25913What have you done with my boat, and why are you standing here?
25913What have you found?
25913What is it that you know and I do not know?
25913What is it you wish me to decide?
25913What is it?
25913What is the matter with your finger?
25913What is the matter, my son?
25913What is the matter?
25913What is the matter?
25913What is the matter?
25913What is the news here in the city?
25913What is this you ask of me?
25913What is this?
25913What is your name?
25913What means this?
25913What misfortune?
25913What shall I do?
25913What was thy ring like?
25913What would you have of us?
25913Whence come you, and what is your name?
25913Where are you going, my child? 25913 Where do you live?"
25913Where is thy dear frog?
25913Whither do you journey with so sad a face?
25913Who are you, beautiful one?
25913Who are you? 25913 Who are you?
25913Who can be living here?
25913Who has been talking to you of your life?
25913Who is there?
25913Who wants the halter?
25913Why are you weeping, Jean? 25913 Why did you burn my frog- skin?
25913Why did you call me,said he,"and what do you want?"
25913Why did you call me?
25913Why did you cast the goblet on the floor?
25913Why do you ask me these questions, my son?
25913Why do you bring her here?
25913Why do you call me again?
25913Why do you cry out and change color?
25913Why do you push me away?
25913Why do you sit there so quietly instead of playing about?
25913Why does he not go home and get to work?
25913Why does this tree bear such fine and perfect fruit, and yet it has not a single leaf?
25913Why is it you do not like Mr. Bulbul? 25913 Why should I do that?"
25913Why should I want to go into the cellars?
25913Why should the Rajah come to my poor hut? 25913 Will you give me a bite to eat, for the love of charity?"
25913Will you give me a drink of water?
25913Will you take me home with you for a servant?
25913Yes,answered her father,"but where did you find it?"
25913You said that I should decide this matter for you, so why quarrel about it? 25913 And how come you here in the depths of the jungle?
25913And now how about the Princess?
25913And now, knowing this, do you still wish to eat the fruit?"
25913And what seek you here in the kingdom of Koshchei the Deathless?"
25913And why are you weeping so bitterly?"
25913At first he forbore to question her, but one day he followed her and finding her in tears, he said,"Tell me, why are you sad and downcast?
25913Before they sat down to the feast the young Ranee said to him,"Where is your wife Guzra Bai?
25913Did not you call''Oh''?
25913Do you hear the huntsmen winding their horns farther on in the open?"
25913Do you not know that that is impossible?"
25913Do you not see how your loud talking has gathered a crowd about my house?"
25913Does it smell of reeds and rushes?"
25913Has some one been unkind to you?"
25913Have I not shown my love in every way?"
25913Have you wearied of this garden, and are you lonely here; or is it that you no longer love me?"
25913How could he ever bring the frog to court and present her to the Tsar as though she were a beautiful Princess?
25913How fares it with you out there?"
25913No wonder I am sad, for where, in this swamp, can I find a carpet such as I require?"
25913Now will you go?
25913Now will you go?"
25913Now will you go?"
25913Now will you go?"
25913So that was the game, was it?
25913Tell me exactly where the tree was-- the tree where you lived-- and what kind it was?"
25913Tell me whence come they, and why you weep over them and talk to them as you do?"
25913The first thing he asked was,"Have you been down in any of the cellars again?"
25913The first thing the Master asked when he came home was,"Have you been down in the third cellar?"
25913The lad then asked,"Has Ali Cogia brought the jar of olives into court with him?"
25913The man stopped the lad and said to him,"Are you seeking work or shunning work?"
25913The next day the master came home, and the first thing he asked was,"Have you looked into any of the cellars?"
25913The nurse went to the old Ranee, and said,"Do you know, I believe those children are still alive?
25913Then he said,"Look behind you, for I hear a noise; is any one coming?"
25913Was not the Tsar pleased with the bread you carried to him?"
25913We had expected to see her here?"
25913What are you doing up there among the leaves?"
25913What opinion would he have of you if he returned and found you had helped yourself to his olives?"
25913What will you do then?"
25913Why do you break and torture us?"
25913Why do you stand there staring?"
25913Why has she not come with you?
25913Would the King keep his promise and give her to the herdsman for a wife?
25913Yes, the King was as much in need of a herdsman for his hares as ever, but was the lad willing to run the risk of having only a beating for his pains?
25913asked the King,"and how came I here?"
25913why do you break and torture us?"
43050''Are you most done?''
43050''Are you not a coming?''
43050''Villain'', said Blue Beard, drawing his scymater,''what dost thou here?''
43050do n''t you think there are sights in the Castle worth looking at?''
43050said Blue Beard, in a surlier voice than before;''yes directly,''said Fatima; when calling to her sister, she asked her if she saw nothing?
43050said Blue Beard;''yes,''cried Fatima; when calling again to Irene, she said,''sister, what do you see?''
43457Pray Madam,said he,"how came this blood to be here?"
43457,;:?
43457Fatima again renewed her inquiries to her sister;"Do you see any one coming yet?"
43457In breathless agitation, she cried,"Do you think it is my brothers?"
43457She again beseeched him to allow her only two minutes more, and then addressed her sister,"Dear Anne, do you see any one coming yet?"
43457She then called out for the last time,"Sister Anne, do you see no one coming yet?"
43457She was upon her knees bewailing her fate, when Blue Beard, in a tremendous voice, cried out,"Are you ready?
43457When the five minutes were elapsed, the voice of Blue Beard was heard bawling out,"Are you ready yet?"
3714And to pass from one thing to another, who may you be yourself?
3714Do you know then how long this commotion of the elements is to last?
3714Have you a soul? 3714 Have you no charm, against him, my friend?"
3714Ho, ho,laughed the stranger,"what is this immensely grand marriage you have made, that you do n''t know your own relations any longer?
3714I am no spectre,said Undine, smiling;"do I then look so ugly?
3714Is that all?
3714Is this a time for riddles?
3714Kuhleborn? 3714 Speak,"said the knight with a gloomy countenance,"what induced you to act so strangely?"
3714The flood is ever rising higher, and what does it matter to me to know who you are?
3714What do you mean?
3714What sort of a road is this? 3714 What will you give me,"she said,"to provide you with wine?"
3714What would be the good of it?
3714Where are the poor waiting parents?
3714Why, husband,said the wife, with a quiet smile,"what can you be thinking of?
3714Are they perhaps already here?
3714Are you then so perfectly certain, Knight Huldbrand, that your first wife is really dead?
3714But how can I help it?
3714But when one has n''t a soul at all, I beg you, what is there to attune then?
3714Can it be?"
3714Do you come out of that wild forest, my beautiful knight?"
3714For charity begins at home, and what do other people concern us?"
3714For have you for many years been further than the edge of the forest?
3714For what is to become of me, if you avoid and reject me?
3714Have you been obliged then to wander through the world for years, before you could find your way to us?
3714Have you forgotten your uncle Kuhleborn, who so faithfully bore you on his back through this region?"
3714Have you really a soul, Bertalda?"
3714He shall not?
3714He yet belongs to another; and do you not see grief for his lost wife still written on his pale cheek?
3714Huldbrand now felt certain on the point, but Bertalda asked:"And what did the master of the fountain want with you, dear Undine?"
3714I groaned,''where is our dear child?
3714I have too much of that trash myself, as I will show you at once?''"
3714I must say"Alas, that our sorrow should be of such short duration?"
3714I stopped, perplexed, and asked:''What do you mean by this screaming?
3714If I had not bitten you, who knows how much of Bertalda would have appeared in your story?"
3714Is it a blossom white as snow Fallen from heav''n here below?
3714Is it not so?"
3714Is n''t it so?"
3714Our guest belongs no doubt to Christian men, and how could it come into the head of the good young blood to drive old people from their chairs?
3714Shall we say it is well or ill, that our sorrow is of such short duration?
3714She learned therefore nothing further of either; and for what end was such knowledge necessary?
3714Tell me, holy sir, were it not better that we never shared such a gift?"
3714Undine whispered in his ear:"Would it not be better, my love, if we gave up this foolish journey, and returned to castle Ringstetten in peace?"
3714What glimmers there so shining The reedy growth entwining?
3714What is the good of reproving him?
3714What is the use of sending him angrily away?
3714What wonder then, that its storks and swallows inspired them also with a desire to travel?
3714Where would the tender Bertalda tarry through the stormy night, which was so fearful in the valley, should he fail to find her?
3714Why did you tell me you were the only people here on the island?
3714Yet she said with great composure:"My lord and husband does not reprove even a bondslave without a hearing, how much less then, his wedded wife?"
3714and have you seen any other human beings than Undine and myself?
3714cried the knight, recovering himself,"What do you concern me, you goblin?
3714for God''s sake, Undine, where are my parents?"
3714he kept saying to himself;"does it not always portend death?"
3714replied the figure,"will you then not look upon me once more?
3714was it Kuhleborn?"
3714whence, sweet stranger, art thou here?
3714will you for once leave off these childish tricks?
36668And what is the fare?
36668But how can you be my wife, little frog?
36668But what am I to do?
36668How are you, ferry- man?
36668How are you, prince?
36668How could I help it?
36668How could any human being come here? 36668 How did you come here?"
36668Must I go back without my poor brothers?
36668My father demands another proof of skill; and I am not so sure that we shall succeed so well as before; for how can you bake a cake?
36668Tell me, my son,said the king,"why you did not let me know what a fortunate choice you had made?"
36668Then you saw it?
36668Was it of your own free will, or by compulsion?
36668What are you crying for, you lovely maiden?
36668What are you grieving for, pretty dove?
36668What are you here for, old man?
36668What are you thinking of, prince?
36668What are your commands, princess?
36668What do you see?
36668What do you want?
36668What do you want?
36668What is the matter, prince?
36668What is the matter, prince?
36668What is the matter, prince?
36668What is the matter? 36668 What is the matter?
36668What mill is this?
36668What seest thou?
36668What''s this? 36668 Where are you going?"
36668Which of those carriages do you prefer?
36668Who are you? 36668 Why did you go against the wishes of your clever and sensible wife?"
36668Wonder Maiden--but is not"admired Miranda"the most obvious rendering?
36668A little further on he met an old man, grey- haired, but strong and vigorous- looking, who also said:"What have you got there?"
36668And does he now think of me?"
36668And does he now think of me?"
36668And does he now think of me?"
36668And does he now think of me?"
36668And does he now think of me?"
36668And the bear asked:"Are you alive?"
36668And what will the world say?"
36668But since you are so kind, will you not tell me how to rescue my brothers?"
36668But tell me, how can I marry you, or introduce you to my father?
36668But where did this knight come from?
36668But where is my betrothed, Princess Ladna, whom I rescued from the wizard dwarf, with the seven- foot beard?
36668But where is the Prince Hero, who shall deliver her?
36668Do you see that flax?
36668He put it up, and then said:"Whose mill is this?"
36668He stood still, and said in human tones:[ Illustration: THE HORSE APPEARS IN THE STORM]"What are your commands, Prince Dobrotek?"
36668Next day, at evening twilight, the bear came back, and asked:"Is the shirt ready?"
36668On the way the ferry- man met a youth, riding on a fine grey horse, who asked:"What have you got there, man?"
36668The bear began to throw stones and billets of wood, thick and fast from the stove, and every time he did so, he asked:"Are you alive?"
36668The old king welcomed him warmly, and asked him:"Where is your wife, my son?"
36668The prince looked over the sea, and saw the island in the grey distance, far, far away; but how was he to get there?
36668The twilight was falling, and she was just putting in the last stitch, when the door opened, and the bear came in, and asked:"Is the shirt ready?"
36668Then he asked the horse:"What is to be done next?"
36668Through what lands do his footsteps stray?
36668What are you doing there?"
36668What could the poor man do, but agree to this?
36668When they alighted, and he asked her:"Princess, what were those two delicious morsels you gave me last?
36668Where?
36668[ Illustration: THE TRUANT WIFE IS CAPTURED]"What are you thinking of, sister?"
36668and what are you fighting about?"
36668answered the Sun;"When the dragon from the deep abyss attacked me, and I had to fight him?
36668are you weary of the world, that you court speedy death?"
36668she said,"what brings you here?"
36668what are you here for?"
36668where do his footsteps stray?
36668where do his footsteps stray?
36668where do his footsteps stray?
36668where do his footsteps stray?
36668where is my loved one?
36668where is my loved one?
36668where is my loved one?
36668where is my loved one?
36668where is my loved one?
36668whom one of your knights treacherously stole from me?
36241Are you the animal of which the fairy woman of the Blue Hills has told me?
36241Do you think I am an owl and that I can see well enough in the darkness to heal your feet? 36241 Does the knife not hurt?"
36241He scents you here,said Rabbit,"will he not kill you if he finds you?
36241Hello,he said to the man,"why are you tying these heavy rocks to your ankles?"
36241Hello,said Great Heart as the sky- gazer rushed past him and almost knocked him over,"what are you looking at so intently?"
36241Hello,said Great Heart in a whisper,"what are you doing there with your ear to the ground?"
36241Hello,said Pierre,"why are you making willow whistles?"
36241Oh dear, oh dear, where shall I hide?
36241What are you doing here?
36241What are you doing here?
36241What are you doing, hiding in the bag?
36241What are you looking for so late at night in the forest?
36241What can I do for you?
36241What cheer for me to- night and what fortune?
36241What do you want?
36241What do you wish?
36241Where did you get all the fine fish?
36241Where have you come from?
36241Who are you in the bag?
36241Who are you?
36241Who are you?
36241Who are you?
36241Who are you?
36241Who has called me here?
36241Who is your choice of runners?
36241Who struck you?
36241Why are you so stingy with your light?
36241Why do n''t you eat some cheese?
36241Why do you cry?
36241Why do you look so sorrowful?
36241Why were you false to me?
36241Will the Hunter not want to kill you?
36241Yes, yes,said Fox,"but where shall I hide?"
36241And Deer answered, also in anger,"Who are you to doubt me or my faith?
36241And Duck with her feathers all ruffled with excitement said,"Yes, yes, where shall I hide?"
36241And Earth- Worm said,"Yes, yes, where shall I hide?"
36241And Rabbit asked as they went along,"How is it that you are alive after that cruel blow?"
36241And Rabbit said,"Will not old Duck who comes here want to eat you up?"
36241And Raven said,"How do I know he is your Chief''s child?
36241And as he went along he cried,"Oh, oh, oh, where is my wife?
36241And he made many inquiries, and he asked the Mountain Ash,"Where is Whirlwind?"
36241And he said to him in anger,"Why did you leave us behind, without warning, for the land of the Turtle?
36241And he said,"Why should I work for other people when nobody works for me?
36241And his sister said,"How can I make a basket when I can not see?
36241And she said,"Why are you crying?"
36241And the humped man with the light said,"Do you want it for your people?"
36241As he looked he came upon a musk- rat running along by the stream, and he said angrily,"Have you seen the person I am looking for?"
36241As they sat waiting for their dinner, Rabbit said,"Would you care to eat an Earth- Worm before your dinner?
36241But the boy poured his own share into the bag under his coat, and said,"Why ca n''t you eat hot food-- a big man like you?
36241But the man said,"How can I give you your Worm when my Duck has eaten it up?
36241Great Heart was much puzzled when Scarlet Runner did not appear, and as he saw the maiden''s runner coming nearer, he said,"What can have happened?
36241Have you not heard?
36241He kicked his younger brother, who was lying beside him, and said in great anger,"Why did you strike me?"
36241He met a Toad in the path, and said,"Little Toad, have you seen the youth I am looking for?
36241He met a rabbit in his path and he said,"Tell me where I shall find the Healing Spring?"
36241He said to Duck,"How do you get along in the world?
36241He was very angry, and he cried loudly to his son,"Where is the dog?
36241How can I gather dry pine when I can not see?
36241May I take him home?"
36241Raven asked,"Who will volunteer to steal the baby?"
36241She said,"Where is the eye I gave you?"
36241The Chief called all his warriors to a council, and he said,"Who can rid me of this pest?
36241The Chief said,"How can I give you back your drum when it is broken?
36241The boy said,"Who are you?"
36241The giant soon discovered him and asked,"Why are you crying?"
36241The messenger laughed and said,"Why did you not say so at first and save us all this trouble and anxiety?
36241The stranger said,"Where are you going?"
36241Then Rabbit said,"Would you like some bear meat for your children, and a good warm bear skin for your hearth?"
36241Then a voice came from the light, saying,"Why did you snare me?
36241Then he met Bee on the forest path and he said,"How do you make a living, you wandering bee?
36241Then he said,"Why can we not have a meal here?
36241Then the dragon- man saw a very large fish with his head above water, looking for flies, and he said,"Have you seen the boy I am looking for?"
36241Then the old man said,"You are very small children; what are you seeking so far away from people?"
36241They asked him,"Where do you want to dwell?"
36241They sat on the ground and rested, and said,"Oh dear, oh dear, what shall we do?
36241What could you do with daylight, you with your coat as black as night?"
36241What have you done to make yourself look so sleek and shiny?"
36241What matters it if I should die?"
36241When he brought it home in a box, his brothers said to their mother,"What did we tell you about Thick- head?
36241When she saw Rabbit in the dim light she said gruffly,"Who are you, standing there in the shadows?"
36241When the dragon- man saw the little fish, he cried,"Little fish of the red fins, have you seen the youth I am looking for?"
36241Where is Deer?
36241Where is my girl?
36241Where is the dog?"
36241Who can kill the giant?"
36241Who knows?
36241Why did you desert the Great Council?
36241Why did you not wait until all could come together?
36241Why do n''t you do as I do?
36241Why do n''t you lay eggs?
36241Why do you lie there drinking so much water?"
36241Why do you not use the thoughts I send you?
36241Why have you come?"
36241Will you give me food and let me rest here a while?"
36241Will you not have pity on a creature from earth and give him some of the power of which you too are possessed?"
36241Would you care to eat a fat Duck now?
36241[ Illustration: SUDDENLY A LARGE FLOCK OF BIRDS, LOOKING LIKE GREAT BLACK CLOUDS, CAME FLYING FROM THE BLUE HILLS]"Who are you?"
36241[ Illustration: THEN FOX UNTIED THE BAG AND LET RABBIT OUT AND GOT INTO THE BAG HIMSELF]"What are you eating?"
39274Art thou come to be my companion?
39274Can you not remain as I placed you?
39274Can you pay for a night''s lodging?
39274Miranda, my love,said the anxious mother,"how came we hither?"
39274Nay, nay, my dear doggie, I can not call you Fidunia,cried she, but, after a moment''s reflection,"would not''Fido''do as well?"
39274Canst thou unloose the links that bind, Or vanquish powerful foes combined?
39274Canst thou unloose the links that bind, Or vanquish powerful foes combined?
39274First, said the little maid,"What will you do for your mistress?"
39274Had she within those mystic precincts heard a warning voice which bade her pause ere she dashed the cup of earthly happiness from her lips?
39274He raised himself, confused and aching; he passed his hand across his brow-- Was the past a reality?
39274How and where had she obtained the crystal liquid that leapt and sparkled in its golden prison?
39274How could the small silver horn of the newborn moon cast such brilliant light on the dark ocean?
39274I fain would gain the boon I ask, Is mine the strength for such a task?
39274In a terrible voice he cried--"What have you done to our child, to my darling Miranda?"
39274Is mine the strength for such a task?
39274Suddenly, a loud, harsh voice exclaimed,"What business have you here?
39274Surely she had trodden these trim- kept walks before, and inhaled the strange rich odour of the blossoming orange that hung heavy on the air?
39274Was all a dream, like her forest fancies?
39274Were the words he had heard but the offspring of his own imagination?
39274What had happened?
39274What strange alteration had taken place in her beloved child?
39274Whence came the ineffable beauty that sat upon Fidunia''s brow, and cast a radiance over her shining hair?
39274Whence came these awful voices that sounded through the gloom of night?
39274Where is the wayfarer who can forget a calm autumn sunset seen from those barren heights?
39274Where was the gloomy Eudæmon, the dreaded Enchanter of the North?
39274Who was the Antiphates whose misfortune was known, as it seemed, to all the world save herself?
39274Why were words of the same import evermore repeated in her slumbers?
39274from the forest, sayest thou, and by thy voice a fair and gentle maiden?"
39274who can accurately define the thrilling tie that makes the one we love different from all the world beside?
39274who, when the frail chain of enchantment is once severed, can join again those mystic links?
26711And canst thou impart the wisdom of man and of the human world to others?
26711And canst thou weave a thread of sand?
26711And may not a shepherd be handsome?
26711And tell me how came you here with this carcass of an ox, so distant from the land, so high up as this tower in the sea?
26711And what lies beyond?
26711And what means this?
26711And what will happen at sunrise, if I refuse?
26711And whence comest thou? 26711 Are there no white, or yellow, or pink roses?"
26711Art thou a witch?
26711Art thou ill?
26711Art thou not satisfied with the destruction thou hast wrought?
26711Art thou, too, a beggar?
26711But art thou not a Jew?
26711But couldst thou not brush it away?
26711But was it yesterday?
26711Can I have slept so long? 26711 Can I have slept so long?"
26711Can not the river then be crossed?
26711Canst thou interpret dreams?
26711Canst thou make a fire for us?
26711Canst thou read this word?
26711Canst thou tell me, father,he said to an old man,"which is the house of Onias, the rabbi?"
26711Canst thou, husband of my heart''s choice, devise some means of escape?
26711Did I not fall asleep on a hill overlooking Jerusalem last night? 26711 Didst thou speak of Rabbi Onias?"
26711Do ye eat bread of gold?
26711Do you not see?
26711Do you think he could rise to be a bishop?
26711Do you think he will hit me if I smack his face?
26711Does thy master then think my demand so simple?
26711Dost thou no longer love me, and am I not beautiful now?
26711Dost thou wish to drown the world once more with thy big tears?
26711Had we not better explore the land?
26711Hast thou brought peace to the whole world that thou sayest thou art its conqueror?
26711Hast thou come to slay women?
26711Hast thou experienced hunger?
26711Hast thou forgotten our compact so soon? 26711 Hast thou never been blessed with offspring?"
26711Have I fulfilled my promise and earned my freedom?
26711Have ye come hither alone?
26711How am I to get back to the palace?
26711How can they be gods if they have no sense?
26711How did it happen?
26711I? 26711 Is it not a sin to make a living creature?"
26711Is it not painful?
26711Is naught left unto me?
26711Is not this proof that the vessel is bewitched?
26711Is this, in truth, the child of the stars?
26711It would be a great thing to give a bishop to the Church, would it not?
26711Know you to whom this red slipper belongs?
26711Know you where you are?
26711Knowest thou why thou hast been bidden to stand before the judges of the land?
26711May I not do so now that our labors are over?
26711May I take Pedro with me?
26711Must thou take the life of the last rose tree?
26711Or have ye been escorted by members of your families-- your sons?

26711Stay, stay-- what ails thee?
26711Tell me, how old art thou?
26711Tell me, my son, hast thou learned the greatest lesson of all? 26711 Tell me,"he demanded fiercely, stopping before a tree heavily laden with flowers,"why are you so red today?"
26711Tell me: who hath laid down a law that only royal personages may be fair to behold? 26711 Their names?"
26711Then why didst thou not inform me?
26711Then why do you pray to them and worship them?
26711Under their own king?
26711Was I not there with thee, my master? 26711 What ails you, my precious daughter?"
26711What art thou doing?
26711What did I tell you?
26711What do you here?
26711What does all this mean?

26711What is the price?
26711What is this-- food, or drink?
26711What is this? 26711 What is thy name?"
26711What manner of mortal is he?
26711What matters that?
26711What mean you by those words?
26711What mean you?

26711Why?
26711Wo n''t you make friends with Pussie?
26711Yes, yes,he replied, sadly,"and for you, too, my devoted wife, but"--and he pointed to his tattered garments--"how can I go out in these?
26711And how can they be respectful when their parents, who should have wisdom and faith, accept not our stories of the many adventures we have had?
26711And what were their thoughts?
26711And where is my camel?"
26711And whither goest thou, oh most hospitable friend?"
26711Art thou aware what land it is into which thou hast been cast?"
26711But what is this?"
26711Came he not from the river?
26711Can it ever rise again?
26711Canst thou do this?"
26711Did I not count every single whale myself?
26711Did any one reveal a gleam of wisdom, or common- sense?
26711Do you understand?
26711Do you wonder that Godfrey was unhappy, and that he thought every moment of the words of Rashi?
26711Dost thou feel humble in spirit?"
26711Dost thou know what it is to feel cold?"
26711Godfrey de Bouillon had gained his victory, but at what cost?
26711Goest thou, perchance, to thy pious home?"
26711Had they any pleasures?
26711Hanina and his wife thanked the frog and then the former said:"May we not know who thou art?"
26711Hast thou ever felt gratitude?"
26711Have I not, for years, been thy faithful guide on thy marvelous journeys?
26711He read these words:"For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?"
26711He rose tremblingly from his chair, gazed with piercing eyes into the face of the Pope and said huskily,"Where didst thou learn that move?
26711How comes it now that I am hemmed in by a thicket and am lying in the shade of this noble date palm?"
26711How did they earn money?
26711How know you that?"
26711I must be a god, and why not?"
26711If thou didst but wish to eat ordinary bread in this land, why didst thou desire to conquer it?
26711Is not this thy signature, and is not thy seal appended?"
26711Is that to be your message to history?"
26711Is there no more bread in your own land that thou shouldst brave the dangers of the dark mountains to eat it here?"
26711Is there not in this city some rich merchant or nobleman who needs the services of such talents as I possess?
26711Says not the law of the land,''The king can do no wrong''?"
26711Shall I not then pay homage to my guardian angel?"
26711Shall we be husband and wife?"
26711Sinbad of the Talmud"Rabba, Rabba, silly, silly Rabba, have you caught another whale to- day?"

26711Tell me, shall I succeed, or fail?"
26711Tell me, why is this?"
26711Were they not all just ridiculous fops?
26711What did the mysterious sentence mean?
26711What know these town fools, whose lives are no wider than the narrow streets in which they dwell, of the wonders of the vast world beyond the seas?
26711What sound is that?"

32389How shall we be able to get food for ourselves the rest of our journey?
32389I hope,said Jack,"you will not stay here long; but pray tell me what is the meaning of your being here at all?"

32389See,said they,"what happens from the pride of the little wretch; why did not she ask for such things as we did?
32389Sir,said she,"is it to take away my son entirely that the Commander of the Faithful has sent for him?"
32389That is a monstrous big duckling,she said;"none of the others looked like that; can he be a turkey chick?
32389Was she?
32389Well, how are you getting on?
32389Well, if we do n''t understand you, who should? 32389 Well,"said the giant,"what news, Cousin Jack?"
32389What are you crying for, my little maid?
32389What are you doing, good old woman?
32389What have I done, uncle?
32389What have you done?
32389What is the matter with you, little man?
32389What on earth possesses you?
32389What shall I do?
32389What sort of a creature are you?
32389What, in these clothes?
32389What, you?
32389Where are you going, dear Bear?
32389Where are you going?
32389Where is my palace and my daughter?
32389Which will you have, my dear?
32389Who is there?
32389Who is this man,she said,"who eats no salt with his meat?"
32389Why do you stand there gaping?
32389Why should the little wretch be better off than we?
32389You do n''t want to go into the water?
32389You wish to go to the ball; is n''t it so?
32389Your brothers can be delivered,she said;"but have you courage and endurance enough for it?
32389Aladdin''s mother, when she came to herself, said:"Whence comes this splendid feast?"
32389Ali Cogia,"said he, addressing the boy who acted this part,"have you brought the jar with you?"
32389And the cat said,"Can you arch your back, purr, or give off sparks?"
32389And when she asked the mirror at home,"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
32389And when the old woman sat in the doorway reading her Psalms the wind turned over the leaves and said to the book:"Who can be more pious than you?"
32389Are they not those which have lived most vividly in active minds?
32389As he was going along he met a butcher, who inquired why he was driving the cow from home?
32389Besides, do you suppose that, after so long a time, the olives can be good?
32389But tell me, Beauty, do you not think me very ugly?"
32389But what did he see reflected in the transparent water?
32389Ca n''t you come and render me some assistance?"
32389Ca n''t you think of anything better?"
32389Did I not give you the key of my wareroom?
32389Did you hear or see anything in the dead of the night?"
32389Did you not deposit it there yourself?
32389Did you tell me they were contained in the jar?
32389Do you see this stinging nettle I hold in my hand?
32389Do you suppose she has any desire to float on the water or to duck underneath it?"
32389Give me my life; for what do you want with a poor thin little fellow like me?
32389Have you courage to go with us?
32389Have you not lived in this warm room, and in such society that you might have learned something?
32389He knocked, Toc-- toc, and the grandmother said,"Who is there?"
32389He rubbed it, and the genie appeared, saying:"What is thy will?"
32389He stared at the girls with his fiery red eyes, and screamed out:"Why do you stand there?
32389He was thunderstruck, and turning to the Vizier said:"What sayest thou?
32389How is your appetite now?
32389How was she ever to get any farther?
32389How was she to get there?
32389I suppose you are all here now?"
32389Immediately an enormous and frightful genie rose out of the earth, saying:"What wouldst thou with me?
32389Is it not enough that you once cut my beard shorter?
32389It alarmed her, and what was she not already suffering in her heart because of her brothers?
32389Miss Javotte"--that was the elder sister''s name--"will you not let me go to- morrow, and lend me your yellow gown that you wear on Sundays?"
32389On going to the first jar and saying,"Are you asleep?"
32389Ought I not to bestow the Princess on one who values her at such a price?"
32389Pray how did you sleep last night?
32389Remember, he would eat no salt with you, and what more would you have?
32389Richly dressed, she stood before the mirror, and asked of it:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
32389She is the grandest of them all; she has Spanish blood in her veins and that accounts for her size, and, do you see?
32389So nothing was explained, and nobody presumed to ask any questions about her, for ought not a prince be able to marry whomsoever he pleases?
32389So once, when the queen asked of her mirror:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
32389The Sultan sent her mother to her, who said:"How comes it, child, that you will not speak to your father?
32389The biggest egg is still there; how long is it going to last?"
32389The cruel stepmother walked up to her mirror when she reached home, and said:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
32389The fifth,"Who has used my fork?"
32389The first said,"Who has been sitting on my stool?"
32389The fourth,"Who has touched my vegetables?"
32389The giant, with a voice like thunder, roared out,"Who is there?"
32389The lady answered him by a question,"Do you remember your father, young man?"
32389The queen placed herself before the mirror at home and said:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
32389The second,"Who has eaten off my plate?"
32389The seventh,"Who has drunk out of my little cup?"
32389The sixth,"Who has cut with my knife?"
32389The thief bade him good- day, saying:"Honest man, how can you possibly see to stitch at your age?"
32389The third,"Who has taken part of my loaf?"
32389Then the first dwarf looked about, and saw that there was a slight hollow in his bed, so he asked,"Who has been lying in my little bed?"
32389Was it by accident that one window was left unfinished?"
32389Was it you who yesterday passed sentence on the case of Ali Cogia and the merchant who robbed him of his gold?
32389What can I bring you, my child?"
32389What has happened?"
32389What have you to sell?"
32389When she came to the first jar the robber inside said softly:"Is it time?"
32389When the dwarf had recovered from his first fright, he called out, in his shrill voice:"Could not you deal rather more gently with me?
32389When the merchant was about to take his leave Ali Baba stopped him, saying:"Where are you going, sir, in such haste?
32389When the wind whistled through the rose- hedges outside the house, it whispered to the roses:"Who can be prettier than you are?"
32389Where is the lamp?"
32389While she was combing out the elder''s hair, this ill- natured girl said, sharply,"Cinderella, do you not wish you were going to the ball?"
32389Why will not I marry him?
32389Will it not be time enough to- morrow morning?"
32389Will nothing serve you for breakfast this cold morning but broiling poor Jack?"
32389Will you not stay and sup with me?"
32389[ Illustration:"Ca n''t you render me some assistance?"
32389and did you not find it in the same place where you put it, exactly in the same state, and covered in the same manner?
32389are you there?
32389cried Ali Baba and his son,"what have you done to ruin us?"
32389cried she,"where am I?"
32389he cried,"is it not enough that I have done everything for you but you must command me to bring my master and hang him up in the midst of this dome?
32389is it you?
32389madam,"replied Hop- o''-my- Thumb, who trembled from head to foot,"what shall we do?
32389madam,"said he,"you thought to cheat me, did you?
32389said Cinderella, indifferently;"and who might she be?"
32389said Jack, looking into the pit,"have you found your way so soon to the bottom?
32389said she, over and over again,"what is become of my dear children?"
32389said the giant,"what heavy news can come to me?
32389to disfigure one''s face so?
32389what have I done?"
32389where are our poor children?
37348And what is your name, my dear?
37348And what, pray, was the rhyme your Majesty bid them recall?
37348Are you warm? 37348 But how can I get free of this horrible trap?"
37348But we must not again venture into the precincts of the gnome''s garden, for who knows what might befall our lovely lady here? 37348 But what shall we serve my husband?"
37348But why, why did you not make friends with me at first?
37348Could I get the place?
37348Dear me, madam,she said,"surely you do n''t mean to cook this tough creature to- night?
37348Do n''t love him, hey? 37348 Do you still refuse to marry me, fair maiden?"
37348Have you, then, no father or mother, my child?
37348How can I walk?
37348How shall I get rid of this?
37348I wonder why? 37348 I?"
37348If we help you to find the cap, will you stop crying?
37348In the name of wonder, what have we here?
37348Is it a princess I have got to do my work, perchance?
37348Is n''t it keeping the ground warm, and sheltering our roots and seeds for the spring- time? 37348 Is n''t that part of your bargain with us, if we allow the trout to haunt your brook, and the hares to run into your traps?
37348Is that all?
37348May I crown your brow with my garland?
37348Then tell me what has caused Emma to forget all her life on earth?
37348Tut, tut,she said, angrily;"what were her parents thinking of to let them grow like this?"
37348Want to go to a party, hey? 37348 What did I tell you?"
37348What did I tell you?
37348What have you done, your Majesty?
37348What in the world are you roaring about?
37348What is taking place?
37348What is the baby''s name?
37348What shall I do next, dear steed?
37348What shall I do now, dear steed?
37348What shall I do, dear steed?
37348What trick have you been playing me, you scoundrel?
37348Where have_ you_ been, pray?
37348Where is that insolent whipper- snapper of a prince who has dared to kill my faithful serpent?
37348Where is the child?
37348Where shall we sleep to- night?
37348Who are the Chiasmodos?
37348Who are you, dear little one, and how came you here?
37348Who are you?
37348Who is there?
37348Whom do you seek, my good men?
37348Will you not play for me upon the piano, sister?
37348Will you take me into the grotto, if I give the harp to you?
37348And what could explain the silver penny often found in the shoe of a tidy housekeeper, when up she jumped at break of day to set her maids to work?
37348Are you comfortable?"
37348Besides, what hope have you of getting inside the iron closet?
37348But there is really no talking reason to a person hunched up on top of a chest of drawers with a pink apron over her head; is there, now?"
37348But you really make me creep all over, do n''t you see?"
37348By- and- by, sleep overpowered the traveller, and Mrs. Esquimaux laid a skin before the fire, offering her, for a pillow, what_ do_ you think?
37348Can it be so very delicious to the taste, or what?
37348Dear me, what is it we must say?
37348Do you know that if he should ever drop the single golden feather in his tail, he will become like the rest of us again, a slave and captive?
37348How can I find the entrance to the grotto?"
37348I dare say, now, you understand cooking a nice plump baby''s thigh to perfection, and how to prepare a dish of rosy cheeks smothered in cream, hey?
37348I remember a very little party your mamma had once, when she was a child----""Do you?
37348I''d just like to know when you propose to give us that chap in yonder, who must have eaten more than his weight in good food since he came here?"
37348In a few hours he might hope to reach the court of his king; but what, meantime, should he do with the body of the unfortunate princess?
37348In a voice that all recognized, Dimple cried:"Father, do n''t you know me?
37348Now, shall we not work together for our deliverance?"
37348Then, if we are bruised or our bones are broken on the rocks, we can make all right again----""Why should you forever be talking to yourself, cook?"
37348They stole past the giant''s chamber- door, but the creaking of a board aroused the tyrant, who sprang out of bed, roaring,"Who is there?
37348What else could account for the trouble some of the good wives had with their butter and their bees?
37348What would our benighted great- grandmothers have said to Miss Emmet''s charming illustrations?
37348What''s your name?"
37348Who are you that have cheeks so fair, and an old man''s locks?"
37348Who are you?
37348Who dares to say that he is not the image of his father?
37348Who knows what became of her late husband, the baron?
37348and why should we trust in you when every living thing in this foul spot is devoted to the service of the evil one?"
37348he cried,"art thou dead?
37348said Rosy,"did my mamma do that?
37348what shall I do?
37348why are you here?
37348why did n''t she kill me, outright?"
38252A nightingale, my dear?
38252And what are they for?
38252Are they all to be used in one storm?
38252Brother fairies,he said,"where can I find silver to make my cloud a lining as beautiful as yours?"
38252But if I were to keep the rosebud always, even when it was dead? 38252 But who will decide which are the best treasures?"
38252Dear Sunbeam,she said to Sunbeam the Third,"shall you be always in my heart?"
38252Do you really and truly wish to think of the sea for ever and ever?
38252Dull, did you say? 38252 Have I got to spend the rest of my life with pirates and savages?"
38252Have you seen my diamonds? 38252 How can I choose when they are all so beautiful?"
38252How can I fly with only one wing, and what is the use of a fairy that ca n''t fly? 38252 How can I keep you there?"
38252How?
38252Madame La France,said the butterfly,"may I introduce to you a cousin of your own?"
38252Oh dear,said Michael,"what am I to do?
38252Oh, Mermaid dear,cried Michael,"what have you done with my nice new horse?"
38252Oh, must it be my pearls?
38252Shall you always stay in my hair?
38252Unpleasant, did you say? 38252 Well?"
38252What am I to do?
38252What are they like?
38252What are we to do? 38252 What can I have been thinking of?
38252What do you think? 38252 What shall I do?"
38252What with?
38252Where does one find silver?
38252Where is it coming to? 38252 Why ca n''t she behave as we do?"
38252Wo n''t you come and live with me?
38252Would n''t anything else do instead?
38252Would nothing else do instead? 38252 And she was often so dull that she drummed with her fingers on the window and said--What on earth shall I do?"
38252At last she said--"Where is the little fairy with the kind face, who tried to save my home?"
38252But how could he carry it?
38252But what_ am_ I to wear in my hair?"
38252Ca n''t you come in this morning?"
38252Dangerous?
38252Do n''t you know that the nightingale is the Bird of Shadows, who sings by night and is very sad?"
38252Do you think you could possibly catch one for me?
38252Is it best to live on the sea or on the land?"
38252Other fairies have comfortable clouds over their heads, and why should we be always drenched?
38252So you''re a poet, are you?
38252Starblossom was silent for some time, but at last she asked--"What are they all for?"
38252Then Penelope asked Sunbeam the Second--"Shall you always stay in my eyes?"
38252They look very well there, do n''t they?
38252What shall I do?"
38252What shall we do now?"
38252Wo n''t you come a little closer?
38252Would n''t you like some of those?"
38252Would you stay then?"
38252what''s this?"
44558Looking upon his wretched victim,"Where,"said he,"was your promise, when you were fool enough to enter the closet?
44558She now renewed her frenzied enquiries to her sister;"Is no one coming?"
44558and where was the obedience you promised to pay me, when you suffered your curiosity to overcome your duty?
34956Are you convinced now that she is a sorceress?
34956Are you frightened?
34956Are you she whom the prince wished to marry?
34956But knowest thou not, that none can vanquish the giant, except only a knight who came into the world unborn?
34956But where shall I be able to find sufficient down for all the caps, and shirts, and cravats?
34956But why dost thou stare so fixedly?--why dreamily gaze before thee so?
34956Can you be the maiden whom he wished to marry?
34956Can you not then tell me the road that I may find you?
34956Foolish boy,murmured the old father;"thou be made king?
34956Hast thou good bread?
34956Hast thou, then, the sword of Sesostris?
34956Have you listened to your mother''s counsel?
34956How come you to know him?
34956How could you do that? 34956 If you will not part with it for gold nor for gain, what will you take for it?"
34956Pray, how long has it been in fashion for a king to keep a debtor- and- creditor ledger like a tailor? 34956 So, that''s your vanity, is it?"
34956So,rejoined Madam Grumble- do,"I am to be wedding coachman-- am I?"
34956Thou art welcome,replied Vladimir,"but how is it possible that thou hast escaped the giant Tugarin, who holds the road to Kiev in blockade?"
34956Thou art,spake he, as he bent low before him,"thou art our father and our lord, thou art the child of renown: wherefore sinks thy head?
34956Thou darest to intrude into my castle?
34956Well, why did you not?
34956Well,replied she,"what wages do you ask?"
34956What am I to do with your dogs?
34956What are you going to do?
34956What do you ask for your golden apple?
34956What do you want?
34956What have you done?
34956What is the purpose of this man?
34956What mad tricks are you playing?
34956What means this?
34956What old castle is that?
34956What''s the matter?
34956Where shall I find her?
34956Where shall I find this horse?
34956Where,said he,"is the unborn mortal who is destined, with the sword of Sesostris, to destroy the fell Tugarin?"
34956Who art thou, bold youth from a foreign land? 34956 Who art thou?"
34956Why did you make war upon her?
34956Why dost thou start as if some pain shot through thee? 34956 Why not?"
34956A king or a king''s son?
34956And what return do you make us, you stray vagabond?
34956Arrived there, he at once engaged the best apartments, and said to his host:"Well, how goes it in your city?
34956Art thou a Czar, or a Czarewitsch?
34956At this attack, the giant broke forth with mingled rage and scorn:--''What,''bellowed he,''does Trewul send troops against me?
34956But with all this how was he to comfort Milolika?
34956Do all these things then afford you no enjoyment?"
34956Does he suppose I picked him off the road for love of his paltry flaxen hair and his blue goggle eyes?
34956Even if it be a hostile knight who now appears before the capital, hast thou not enough brave heroes to confront any foe?
34956For, supposing that Bogoris were to fight with the Sylant, and fall, would not our misfortune be greater still?
34956Go and send heralds to demand who dares to come forth against Kiev, to challenge Vladimir to battle?"
34956Hast thou not seen her?"
34956I have defeated hosts, made myself master of fortified cities, and overthrown kings: how should I know fear?
34956Is my race, then, to be extinguished, and are my possessions to fall into the hands of strangers?
34956Is your little worship disposed to join the army?"
34956Must I then become his enemy?
34956Pray, what did they cost you?
34956Send forth thy heralds to demand who dares to defy the country of the Russians?"
34956She then turned to the king and queen:"Pray, what is the reason of your never having asked me to do anything for him yet?
34956She threw her full white arms round their necks, and said to them with endearing maternal tenderness,"What ails you, my beloved children?"
34956So I have caught you, have I, my little fox?
34956The butterfly, he has no tailor to pay, Yet he never feels cold,--and who dresses so gay?
34956The king''s son asked him,"What has taken place here?"
34956The youth is as giddy as a butterfly, and wherever he goes he will be telling everybody''I am a prince and my father is a king,''Is it not so, eh?"
34956Then the horse of Argilius turning back his head called out:"Why dost thou let those fiery spurs be stuck in thy side, brother?
34956They next went to the oil vendor:--"Have you good oil?"
34956To hear them squalling from morning till night, till you, as well as I, will be ready to jump out of our skins with the noise?
34956To which Siva answered:"Whence should I take a wife?
34956What business have you in the wood, pray?
34956What is the latest news here?"
34956What is thy name, and how stands thy report in thy father- land?
34956What''s the use of children?
34956What''s the use of my telling you ten times over all the stories I know about the black man and the grim wolf?
34956When they had gone a good way, the bear asked her:"Do you feel sad?"
34956Whither should they turn?
34956Who could have guessed, however, what the homely youth had secretly determined, and what a trick he had resolved to play on all the princely suitors?
34956Who found all the rest?
34956Why does the sound of the warrior''s horn make thy heart heavy?
34956Why on thy breast are thy small hands pressed?"
34956Why was I such a goose as not to let the child lie where I found him, kicking and screaming in the forest?"
34956Will you grant me this, my most gracious king?"
34956[ Illustration]"Why dost thou disturb me?"
34956cried Holofernes;"have you not had enough hay and oats, or have they not given you drink?"
34956cried he; and when she came, he asked her:--"Can you wash that shirt clean?"
34956dear brother- in- law,"said Argilius,"I am in search of my wife Kavadiska; know''st thou not where she is?
34956has Maszilo killed his brother?"
34956is it you, Prince Chaffinch,"exclaimed she,--"and you fly me?"
34956said Julius;"and thus you still are seeking now, the boy with the star upon his brow?"
34956said the musician;"and to whom did it belong?"
34956what do you want children for?
34956whither go you?"
34956you are come at last?
37464But why need I ask?
37464Buy it? 37464 Do you know what your reward is for letting me out of that glass bottle?"
37464Does this low fellow go with us?
37464Eh, what?
37464Gladly,the princess responded;"but have you anything to roast it in?
37464Go away? 37464 Have n''t you heard what has been proclaimed throughout all the countryside?"
37464He''s all fixed now,one said,"but who''s to take care of the fire while we''re away?"
37464I ca n''t half see, and what wonder is it if I missed the way to my own mouth and got the spoon in your mouth, instead?
37464Is it a story you want?
37464It is very hot in here, is n''t it?
37464Master,Tom said,"what do you say to playing a joke on that fellow?
37464No,the scholar answered without fear,"how should I?"
37464Of what use would you be?
37464See what I have just found? 37464 That''s good,"Blockhead Hans commented;"and will you let me roast a crow with them?"
37464Then why do you keep the house so dark?
37464What have you done?
37464What have you found now?
37464What is it?
37464Where do you-- um?
37464Whither are you going so sad, my little lady?
37464Why have you not brought me the key of the little room?
37464Will you please give me something to eat?
37464Would n''t you like to buy another calf?
37464You foolish lad,his brothers said,"what are you going to do with it?"
37464A huge whale came to the surface close at hand, looked at her, and asked,"What are you seeking, my pretty maiden?"
37464And when you find the Mother of Time, will you do me one favor?
37464Are you going to take that to the princess?"
37464But after all what is the use of one shoe without its neighbor?"
37464But after the clouds were gone, and a fresh breeze blew, and the sun shone, what did Mr. Turkey Buzzard do?
37464But how could such a giant as you are get into so small a space?
37464Do you hear?
37464Do you know what we will have to pay our neighbor to make good the loss of his ax?"
37464Does the ocean frighten you?
37464Had n''t everybody, near and far, said that Patrick had fallen overboard?
37464He thought,"Is it possible that the wicked alligator has come to hunt for me here in my own house and is waiting inside to catch me?"
37464How can I thank you?"
37464IV-- A SCHOLAR''S FORTUNE After parting from the goblin, the young man went back to his father, who asked:"Where have you been roaming so long?
37464Is there no one on the road?"
37464Mark my words, will you?"
37464No sooner did she finish the ascent than Fatima called from below,"Anne, Sister Anne, do you see any one coming?"
37464Or would you have me help you with your work?
37464Peach- boy observed this and said in a loud voice:"My vassals, why do you tremble?
37464So he called,"Where are you?"
37464So the butcher went off well satisfied, for he had had a good deal of fun for his trouble, had he not?
37464Some ants were busy close by, and one of them addressed Channa, saying,"Who are you and whither are you going?"
37464Then he called loudly:"What is the matter, house of mine?
37464Then he cried out:"What is the matter here?
37464Then he said:"Bird, do you wish to interrupt my journey?
37464Then she called,"Anne, Sister Anne, do you see any one coming?"
37464Then, what should they take out but Patrick Rooney?
37464There she met a mouse who said to her,"Where are you going all alone, my pretty maiden?"
37464They crossed many mountains and valleys, and one day a monkey sprang down from a tree in front of them and asked,"Where are you going so fast?"
37464What was there in it?
37464Where did you buy it?"
37464Where to?"
37464Would you like a wife?
37464Would you like riches?
37464he cried,"what shall I do now?
37464he said,"where are you off to?
37464his father cried,"do you think I can keep my hands in my pockets as you do?
37464his father exclaimed,"why do you want to run about?
37464how will you do that?"
37464the man exclaimed,"where did you get this money?"
37464the son exclaimed,"do you see how poor an ax you have given me?"
37464the youth stammered, and the reporters wrote down,"Where do you-- um?"
37464who was calling him, and not a soul in sight?
37464why did you pluck that accursed rosemary and bring such a calamity on us?
37547And the Huntsman?
37547And was n''t it one?
37547And what are Pixies like?
37547Are you hungry, child?
37547Blunt?
37547Do you mean that wherever I go I shall see the Fairies, just as I see you now?
37547No Fairies?
37547Since you are so fond of Fairy Folk,she said,"why not go to the valley, and see if you can meet a Fée?
37547Then surely you are thirsty, and will drink from my horn?
37547What did she do?
37547What do you do besides mischief?
37547What do you want with a mortal child?
37547Whence do you come, and what do you do this night?
37547Where do Fairies come from?
37547Who am I? 37547 Who was he?"
37547Why not take a header, and come and ride one of my fine sea horses? 37547 Why?
37547Wo n''t you come with me and play with my sheeny pearls?
37547''Ah, what shall I do?''
37547''Are you not afraid that we shall work you ill?''
37547''Art thou mine?''
37547''Dear Mother,''said Elsa tenderly,''who has a greater right than you to the last penny that Hans possesses?
37547''Did he not speak of rewarding you for your hospitality?''
37547''Dost despair so easily?''
37547''Father would n''t like it?''
37547''For ten-- in an eggshell?''
37547''How now?''
37547''Know you not,''he said,''that only cowards persecute those who are weaker than themselves?
37547''May I dance with you?''
37547''What are you doing, Mother?''
37547''What have you done?''
37547''What is wrong with you, friend, that you do not see where you are going?''
37547''While you are a cricket,''he said,''I will be one too, for so long as you are beside me-- what matters else?''
37547''Who could harm anything so small and sweet?''
37547''Who has been here?''
37547''Who has dared to injure so fair a thing?''
37547''You would like to know how?''
37547''You-- you--''he stammered;''you must mean Elsa?
37547''_ Madonnamia!_ Was ever an honest woman cursed with such a daughter?''
37547*****"Do you know any more stories?"
37547And Elsa, you say, Elsa cares for_ me_?
37547And then?
37547But where are the Urchins, my merry play- fellows?
37547Can not one sleep at your house without meeting with knaves and thieves?''
37547Hans went at once to the house by the mill, for had he not gazed at it time and again as the casket which held his treasure?
37547His mother sent away her maids, since she could not pay them their wages, and kept the house straight herself; where could you find a worthier pair?
37547I had taken the form of a slim, dark, serious looking lad, and laying a gentle hand upon her arm,''What ails you, Madame Marguerite?''
37547I waited to hear what else she would say, for I thought of the Kobold''s"_ Why?
37547Presently he, like Peric, grew tired of the monotonous chant, and shouted:''_ Ha Disadarn, ha Disul_''( And Saturday and Sunday)''What else?
37547Shall I tell you how I consoled the fair Marguerite when she wept?
37547Should she ask for another husband, then, since the one she had, had ceased to love her, and threw her but scornful looks?
37547So you wish you had not been born on Christmas Day?
37547What cared she then for Henzel''s anger, so long as it did not touch her child?
37547What could a man want more?
37547What do you think of this?"
37547Why did you call me, and what would you have?"
37547Why?
37547Why?
37547Why?"
37547Why?_"and did not like to ask her questions.
37547[ Illustration:"''How now?''
37547[ Illustration:"What ails you, Madame Marguerite?"]
37547[ Illustration]''How dare you disturb me?''
37547[ Illustration]''Is that all?''
37547cried the Dwarf"154"In the old man''s place sat a little Dwarf"167"A little white feather danced above their heads"189"''How now?''
37547what else?''
37547where are you?"
42366Are you sure it has?
42366Can you roar, old Lion?
42366Did you ever think how like a great big cozy lovely dog you are? 42366 Do you want to eat me?"
42366Does he take it with sugar and cream, your Royal Silver- cross- bell- ness?
42366Has your heart changed?
42366I suppose you have heard of_ me_?
42366Is that it?
42366May he go home and sleep with me, Mother?
42366May n''t I just give her a little lick-- just a little one?
42366Well,I snapped,"what else do you expect?"
42366What''s it for_ but_ to be eaten up?
42366When could it begin? 42366 Where shall I get it?
42366Who did you ever see a_ Lion_ try to give pleasure to?
42366Who invited you?
42366You do n''t want me to cut my mane and tail off, do you?
42366And what do you suppose_ I_ did?
42366Are you really lonely-- really-- really-- really so that it gives you a hollow feeling?"
42366Can you purr?"
42366Could he?"
42366Did you ever see a Lion turn pale?
42366How does one eat it?
42366I sat down on a flowering branch near him and shouted at him,"What''s the use of Society when you eat it up?"
42366Must I bite it?"
42366Now what_ do_ you suppose happened at that very minute?
42366Then I snuggled quite close up to his ear and said down it,"Did you ever think how_ nice_ a Lion would be if-- if he were much nicer?"
42366They had so much to do before they were ready that when they reached the Huge Green Hill the sun was going down and what do you think they heard?
42366What I want to ask you is this: has_ one_ of those villagers called on me since I came here-- even a tough one?"
42366When could it begin?"
42366Where are you?
42366Where?
42366Where?"
42366Who are you?"
42366Who did you ever see try to give pleasure to a Lion?"
37111A noun is the name of a person, place or thing, I believe?
37111A postman!--why?
37111A telegram, did you say? 37111 And somebody else will tell you they do not know what to do with their Time?"
37111And that is?
37111And what do bad habits become?
37111And why not?
37111Are they both good to eat?
37111Are they prosperous? 37111 Are you convinced now?
37111Are you really mad?
37111But Bad Resolutions? 37111 But suppose you want to write a story?"
37111But the Commentators and Editors do give a lot of applications and morals to the tales of my animals, do n''t they?
37111But what are they doing with those bellows?
37111But where is the Bletherwitch, and how do you know?
37111But,interrupted Maude,"how can you know nothing about anything?"
37111But-- but-- O what do you mean? 37111 Do you think it would be right to pay double?
37111Done? 37111 Have you got five minutes to spare?"
37111How can Nobody have a memory? 37111 How could they both be wrong then?
37111How do you mean?
37111I wonder what it means?
37111If you make a Good Resolution and do n''t carry it out-- doesn''t it become a Bad Resolution? 37111 In what way are they Magic Pens?"
37111Nonsense? 37111 Oh, Mr Zankiwank, what is this gentleman saying?"
37111Suppose I were to try to shoot Folly as it flies, and hit a Fool''s Cap and Bells instead, what would you say?
37111That certainly should induce her to come, do n''t you think so? 37111 They keep very good time, do n''t they?"
37111Un-- what?
37111What are we to do then?
37111What do you think of that?
37111What does her mother say?
37111What does it all mean?
37111What habit, please? 37111 What is Inspiration?"
37111What is nothing?
37111What is the use of saying things you do n''t mean?
37111What is to be done?
37111What use would that be?
37111What_ is_ the Nargalnannacus?
37111Where, Oh where was the Zankiwank?
37111Who, then, collects the Resolutions?
37111Why?
37111Will you? 37111 You often hear of somebody who has half an hour to spare, do n''t you?"
37111_ What_ is the matter with you, Mr Zankiwank?
37111An''did um have a fall?
37111And a buzzing in their ears took up the refrain:-- The Zankiwank, the Zankiwank, Oh where, Oh where is the Zankiwank?
37111And where she flaunts her head?
37111Are you really Mr Æsop, the Phrygian Philosopher?"
37111Besides, you ca n''t always prove a negative, can you?"
37111Blinky, winky eyes: Why are you so peepy Ere the twilight dies?
37111Blinky, winky eyes: Why are you so peepy Ere the twilight dies?
37111Blinky, winky eyes: Why are you so peepy When the twilight dies?
37111But they have to pay for it----""Pay for it?"
37111Can you?"
37111Could there be anything sad in Flower Land?
37111Did anybody ever hear of such queer notions?
37111Did you say nonsense?"
37111Do n''t you apprehend me?"
37111Do you forget what my name is?"
37111Do you know what a conundrum is though?
37111Had he and Maude been waiting there three weeks as well?
37111How can one buy a Good Resolution?"
37111How can you finish a sentence with a preposition?
37111How do you do?
37111How do you do?
37111How do you manage then?"
37111How is my blushing bride?
37111I meant that your house would first be facing the East, and then South, and then West, and then North, and what would be the use of that?"
37111If anything were true, nothing would be untrue, and then where should we be?"
37111Is not that feasible?"
37111It surely must be Welsh?"
37111Mix the Good and the Bad together?
37111No doubt the Zankiwank knew what he was talking about, but as the children did not-- what did it signify?
37111Nonsense?
37111Nothing is nothing; but what is better than nothing?"
37111Now, Mr Æsop, as you know so much, please tell us what a proverb is?"
37111Now, how could one even try to tell such an eccentric creature as the Zankiwank that he was all wrong and talking fables and fibs and tarra- diddles?
37111O would you know where Fancy dwells?
37111O would you know where Fancy dwells?
37111One was right?
37111Shall we kill Time?"
37111So round about the Sunset Tree Each boy and girl should go To play a game of-- What''s its name?
37111Then he turned to the two children and said mournfully--"Have you seen my new invention?
37111To me?
37111Was it a shadow?
37111Was that the music of the spheres they wondered?
37111What do you remember with it?"
37111What would they think at home?
37111What''s the use of an advantage, I should like to know?
37111Where is your logic?
37111Who has got any crackers?"
37111Why do not they become a Firm and mix the two together?"
37111Why do they give you so many morals?"
37111Why should we?
37111Will you walk into the garden?
37111[ Illustration] Surely they had been whisked back to Charing Cross again without knowing it?
37111[ Illustration]"How can you recommend your pens, when you declare that nobody will buy them?"
37111[ Illustration]"Oh, Mr Zankiwank, what is the matter with those children in short frocks and knickerbockers?
37111_ Wouldst know what tricks, by the pale moonlight, Are played by one, the merry little Sprite?
37111that young man?
36008''And where does Echo live?'' 36008 ''And who are you?''
36008''But how can I set you free?'' 36008 ''But how shall I find Unda Maris?''
36008''Did you hear anything in the night?'' 36008 ''How can I rescue you?''
36008''I suppose,''said Lieblich Gedacht,''we ought to go on with our journey?'' 36008 ''In whose name?''
36008''Is that you, Vox Angelica?'' 36008 ''Well, what do you want?''
36008''What must I do?'' 36008 ''Who are you,''it said,''who have made me visible and given me the power to speak?''
36008''Who are you?'' 36008 ''Yes, where_ are_ we going to?''
36008''Yes,''said Hautboy,''but where are we going to?'' 36008 Ah, Ivan- the- King''s- Son, why did you burn the frog''s skin?
36008And did Zauberflöte come?
36008And how shall I be able to lead the horse without a bridle?
36008And is it dear?
36008And what happened to Hautboy, Cornet, and Viol d''Amore?
36008And when I recognise you either in the speech or the look of a human being,said Rainbow,"what must I do then?"
36008Are the people of the other stops here too?
36008But what is the gift?
36008But who obliges them?
36008Croak, croak, Ivan- the- King''s- Son,said the frog,"why are you so sad?
36008Croak, croak,said the frog,"why are you so sad?
36008Did Doctor Sebastian have the gift?
36008Do you always live there?
36008Do you really wish to come with me?
36008Do you remember a vagabond telling us we should one day envy Heartsease her husband?
36008Do you think she would do anything you wished?
36008For how could I marry a man,she said,"who might turn into a monster if he happened to lose a ring?"
36008Good morrow, young man,said the old man;"what are you looking for and where are you going to?"
36008Has your father spoken an angry or an unkind word to you?
36008How can I not be sad? 36008 How can I not be sad?"
36008How can I not be sad?
36008I suppose she''s going to marry''Lieblich Gedacht''?
36008Is it dear?
36008Ivan- the- King''s- Son, why are you so sad?
36008Let us loose the hawk,they said, and they loosed him, but what did they see?
36008Oh; Rainbow, why could you not trust me? 36008 Old man,"they cried,"why have you come here to spoil our hunt?"
36008Shall I ever hear you again?
36008That is all very well,said the merchant,"but can you tell me where I can find the Golden Ring?
36008To Musicland?
36008What can I do for you?
36008What can I give you?
36008What does it matter?
36008What is a mirror?
36008What will you do then?
36008Where is he?
36008Who are you?
36008Who is Lizbeth?
36008Whose wedding?
36008Why are you taking off the jesses?
36008Why do you take off the collar and the chain?
36008Why should I not sell him? 36008 Why, old man,"he said,"are you so sad?"
36008Will you dance with me?
36008Will you sell your hawk?
36008After this people gave up the quest, for they said:"If all these great people fail, how should we succeed?"
36008And how can I show_ you_ to the people?"
36008And the King''s youngest son said to himself--"What does it matter to me whether I inherit the kingdom or not?
36008And the other bird said:"Will he be cured?"
36008And they took him to the palace, and the King said to him:"Why have you killed my brother?"
36008And where did you find such a beautiful lady?"
36008As soon as the huntsmen saw this, they came to the old man and said:"Old man, why are you spoiling our sport?"
36008At last he disembarked and sat down on the shore, and thought, saying to himself,"What spell has been put on my ship?
36008At last one day Sweetbriar could bear it no longer, and he said to Windflower:"What does it matter if you give your heart away to me?
36008But have n''t you ever looked at yourself in a mirror?"
36008But look, what is that egg lying on the grass next to my stem?''
36008But what is to be done when one has no money?
36008But what is your trade?"
36008But when he next saw Emerald she mocked him, and said:"What did I tell you?
36008But where have Vox Angelica and Lieblich Gedacht gone to for their honeymoon?"
36008Do n''t you know where you are?''
36008Has he accomplished the quest?"
36008Has he accomplished the quest?"
36008Has he accomplished the quest?"
36008Has he accomplished the quest?"
36008Has your father spoken a cruel or an unkind word to you?"
36008Have you heard from your father anything cruel or unpleasant?"
36008He knocked at this door, and he heard a hoarse voice saying:''Who is there?''
36008He sought the shopkeeper and said to him:"Have you got me the Blue Rose?
36008How can you give half your kingdom to a vagabond in rags and tatters?"
36008I am always glad to see people who come from a far country; but what do you want of me?"
36008In what way have I displeased the gods that they prevent me from going home?"
36008Is your daughter Daphne very beautiful?"
36008Ivan- the- King''s Son, have you come here of your own accord or because you were obliged to?"
36008Ivan- the- King''s- Son said:"How can I marry a frog?
36008My master will ask you,''Have you recognised your son?''
36008My master will ask,''Have you recognised your son?''
36008Now no sooner had he got home than his daughters asked him:"Father, have you brought us back the presents which you promised us?"
36008Now, when the King saw this, he was greatly pleased, and he said to the physician:"You have cured my son; what can I do for you in return?"
36008Presently Hautboy said--"''Why should we go anywhere?
36008The King of the Gnomes said:"What will you give me for it?"
36008The old man walked round the ponies and looked, and the wizard asked:"Now, old man, have you recognised your son?"
36008The peasant nodded and turned round, and then he said:"You see this road running in front of you into the distance?
36008Then Prince Apollo himself came from Italy with his fiddle, and he said:"If I do not know the Song of Spring, who can know it?
36008Then Rainbow wept bitterly, and said:"Do you mean you must leave me for ever, and that I shall never see you again?"
36008Then not finding it, she grew sad and said:"Oh, Ivan- the- King''s- Son, Ivan- the- King''s- Son, what have you done?
36008Then the King said to the vagabond:"You shall we d Heartsease and receive half my kingdom; but who are you, noble prince, and what is your name?"
36008They let it loose, and what did they see?
36008What can I do for you in return?"
36008What can we do for you in return?"
36008What could he do?
36008What have I done?
36008What place could be better than this island?''
36008What was the Blue Rose, and where was it to be found?
36008When the King heard that there was a physician there, he sent for him and said:"Can you cure my son?"
36008When the Prince had drawn the curtain from this picture he said to the merchant,"Is your daughter as beautiful as that?"
36008Why have you come here, Ivan- the- King''s- Son?"
36008[ Illustration: SHE WENT OUT ON TO THE STEP AND CALLED OUT IN A LOUD VOICE]"How can I not be sad?
36008he asked,''to resist the Moon Song?''
19713Afraid?
19713Afraid?
19713Alas, my dear one, what have you done?
19713Am I dreaming again?
19713And am I your master?
19713And do you notice the way the Golden Maiden always smiles on him?
19713And still you want to try your luck?
19713And your Youngest Brother,the Sultan asked,"where is he?"
19713Another one that wants service with the Old Woman, eh?
19713Are you one more quack?
19713Are you ready now to go home and settle down like a sensible young man?
19713Are you sure of that?
19713Are you sure you would?
19713But how else can I brush aside the glowing embers?
19713But how else can I get the Golden Apple- Tree?
19713But unless I give up the Golden Maiden,Janko asked,"how can I get the Golden Horse?"
19713But where is your head?
19713But you will come again, wo n''t you?
19713But you''ll come back, wo n''t you?
19713Ca n''t you make them leave just one apple for my father?
19713Can you cook? 19713 Can you give me a bite of supper and shelter for the night?"
19713Can you tell me what has become of the Old Woman''s mare and foal?
19713Can you tell me what has become of the Old Woman''s mare and foal?
19713Can you tell me,the Prince asked,"what has become of the Old Woman''s mare and foal?"
19713Danilo? 19713 Dear Princess,"the poor girl begged,"wo n''t you tell me the secret of beauty?"
19713Did the Pigeon really speak?
19713Did you hear what Stefan said? 19713 Do you live alone?"
19713Do you live here? 19713 Do you really want to be my shepherd?"
19713Do you think it likely,he asked somewhat pompously,"that any daughter of mine would fall in love with a man who was n''t a prince?"
19713Granny,Danilo asked,"can you tell me the way to Peerless Beauty?"
19713Granny,the Youngest Prince said,"would you like me to rescue you?"
19713Have you ever heard of a glorious Nightingale known as Gisar?
19713Have you gold?
19713How are we going to get rid of the Booby?
19713How can a man enter the chamber of the Flower o''the World?
19713How can you expect to be cured when you do n''t tell me the truth? 19713 How could I have fallen asleep at such a time?
19713How did that fool get back his sight?
19713How would she do that?
19713How, my loved one, can we escape? 19713 I ca n''t marry any of them, so why let them be presented?"
19713If I put you in charge of the sheep, where would you pasture them?
19713If I were to grant you one wish,the Angel said to the second brother,"what would you ask?"
19713Is n''t he here?
19713Is n''t it beautiful nonsense, father? 19713 Is n''t one of our sons good enough for her?
19713Is n''t there a lake beyond the city,the Prince asked,"where the grazing is good?"
19713Is that all?
19713Is that all?
19713Is that so?
19713Is that the way for a princess to talk? 19713 Is this my reward after all my years of loving service to your daughter?"
19713Magic pitcher?
19713Militza?
19713My poor boy, how can I tell you where that enchanted maiden lives when I know it would mean death to you if ever you saw her? 19713 My son,"the Angel said, addressing the oldest brother,"if I were to grant you one wish, what you ask?"
19713Nay, nay, my boy, why should you succeed where your older brothers have failed? 19713 Not even you?"
19713Now is n''t there something I can do for you in return?
19713Now that I''m here,cried the Sultan,"why does the bird not sing?"
19713Now, my son, are you satisfied?
19713Now,sneered the older one,"are you convinced?"
19713Oh, dear, what shall I do?
19713Please comb my hair for me, wo n''t you?
19713Sisters,they cried to each other,"have you heard?
19713So you''d kill your husband just to satisfy your curiosity, would you?
19713Tell me then,she said,"if it was you who stole my glorious Nightingale, where did you find him hanging in his golden cage?"
19713That? 19713 The Youngest?
19713The mosque is beautiful,he said,"and the fountain in its midst is beautiful, but where is the glorious Nightingale Gisar?
19713Then it was you,she said,"who really took from me my glorious Nightingale Gisar?"
19713Then what were you laughing at?
19713Then why are you dressed as a beggar?
19713Trying to steal my Golden Apple- Tree, is he?
19713What ails this Princess?
19713What are you doing wandering about in this wild country?
19713What are you doing? 19713 What are you laughing at?"
19713What can I do?
19713What can she mean?
19713What do you want for it?
19713What do you want with my Golden Apple- Tree, young man?
19713What do you want?
19713What if I am?
19713What magic secret did he discover that enabled him to heal the princess of leprosy? 19713 What shall I do now?"
19713What story could you tell the Princess?
19713What then?
19713What''s so wonderful about it?
19713What''s that lumpy thing in the bread trough, granny?
19713What''s that?
19713What''s the matter with your father''s eyes?
19713Where can he be?
19713Where do you live, granny?
19713Where do you live?
19713Where is the prince?
19713Where''s that girl who lives with you?
19713Who has stolen my golden apples?
19713Who is singing?
19713Who knows? 19713 Who''s afraid?"
19713Who''s afraid?
19713Why are you hiding from me?
19713Why ca n''t you marry any of them?
19713Why do n''t we just go and ask him?
19713Why do you carry such a monster?
19713Why do you say that the Nightingale Gisar will not sing unless he who found him comes to the mosque? 19713 Why not?"
19713Why should you hide from a handsome young man like the Prince?
19713Why such haste? 19713 Why, granny,"the Prince said,"what''s the matter with it?"
19713Wo n''t you let me live with you awhile, granny?
19713Would you rather I were still a pigeon?
19713You do n''t think either of you have time to follow them to the Beggar''s house?
19713You do, do you? 19713 You have come to rescue me, have n''t you?"
19713You know the conditions?
19713You poor little creature,Janko said,"are you hungry?"
19713Young man, what do you mean trying to steal my Magic Grape- Vine?
19713Your brothers? 19713 And do you know why? 19713 And from the water they heard an awful voice bellow back:Afraid?
19713And is n''t Stefan a dear lad?
19713And was there any prince in the world whose bride brought him greater riches than the Golden Apple- Tree, the Golden Horse, and Golden Cradle?
19713And what do you suppose the Tsar did with the hair?
19713And you''re surprised, too, are n''t you?)
19713Are they gone?"
19713Are you sure you want to be a shepherd?"
19713Are you willing that this should happen and you do nothing about it?"
19713As for you, you poor blind beggar, is there anything you would like me to do for you before I ride away?"
19713But how was I to get there?
19713But what man worthy the name will accept such a warning when the safety and happiness of his loved one is concerned?
19713Can I help you?"
19713Can I help you?"
19713Can I help you?"
19713Dear Little Fox, will you help me this one time more?
19713Do you agree?"
19713Do you agree?"
19713Do you hear me?
19713Do you mean Stefan, the Laughing Prince?
19713Do you suppose she ever was really beautiful or did we just imagine it?"
19713Do you wonder that my left eye weeps at the memory of this wonderful Vine?
19713Have I been asleep again?"
19713He asked every man whose head he shaved:"Do you know anything of the Nightingale Gisar?"
19713He did all the Tiger had told him to do and when the Lion''s wife asked him who he was, he said:''Do n''t you know me, old mother?
19713He was n''t afraid of the bull, so why be afraid of the Tsar?
19713His three sons came to him and said:"Father, is there not something we can do for you?"
19713How am I going to decide among them?"
19713I wonder, dear Little Fox, will you help me again?"
19713I''ve got fifty wives but do they bully me?
19713Instantly he heard a little bark and the fox''s voice said:"What is it, brother?
19713Is she waiting for the King of Persia to come as a suitor or what?
19713Little Singing Frog, will you be my bride and will you come to Court to- morrow bringing a flower?"
19713Now I ask you: With all your learning does n''t one of you know how to make a young girl laugh?"
19713Now that I have told you this are you going to spare my life?"
19713Now what shall we do?"
19713Now, Janko, do you understand?"
19713Shall we start after them now or wait till we''ve had our supper?"
19713She looks like a frog and that was certainly a cock she was riding, was n''t it?"
19713She turned around and what do you think she saw?
19713Should n''t you suppose that now with all his wealth lost he would get over his foolish infatuation?
19713So, will you send me a snow- white cock from your father''s barnyard?"
19713Tell me now, where does your strength lie-- in your own beautiful body or somewhere else?"
19713The Princess still scratching the dragon behind his ears, just where he loved it most, asked softly:"Why?"
19713The eleven laughed at him and said:"Poor fellow, your bride betrayed you, did n''t she?
19713Then she questioned him:"Are you the Sultan''s Third Son?"
19713Then the man would sigh, too, and say:"It would be pleasant to have a little daughter, would n''t it?"
19713Then where will we be?"
19713Then, Stefan, what did you do?
19713What can he mean?"
19713What can you want with them?"
19713What could Peerless Beauty do now?
19713What could the poor Tsar do?
19713What did people mean by saying such a thing?
19713What did you do?"
19713What do you mean-- funny old men and silly old women?"
19713What does our master wish?"
19713What else do you know?"
19713What is it, brother?
19713What prince, I''d like to know, had a lovelier bride?
19713What sensible girl would n''t?"
19713What shall I do?"
19713What was the Prince to do now?
19713What was the Tsar to do?
19713What was the old woman to say to that?
19713Whatever it was he got it under the fir tree for where else could he have got it?
19713When the Prince''s back was turned she called the serving man aside and whispered:"Will you do what I tell you if I pay you well?"
19713When the dragon got home and found that the Princess had fled again, he said to his horse:"Shall we follow her at once or shall we eat supper first?"
19713Where are they now?
19713Where are they?
19713Who are you and where are you going?"
19713Who has spied on us?"
19713Who is Danilo?"
19713Who is it?
19713Who is it?"
19713Who''s afraid?"
19713Why does he not sing when I and my two sons come to pray?"
19713Why not ask him if he will go to Flower o''the World in place of your Youngest Son?"
19713Why should he turn and run away as though he had done something wrong?
19713Will you kill me as a reward for my kindness?"
19713You will come, wo n''t you?"
19713You will do this, will you not, for your country''s sake?"
19713he asked himself,"or did I really understand them?
19713he cried, when he saw the snake that was still wound about the shepherd''s neck,"where have you been?
19713he cried,"how could I have fallen asleep just when the peafowl appeared?
19713she asked herself as she stood staring out the western window,"or have I been dreaming?"
19713the Princess cried,"did you hear that?
16731A glorious morning, is n''t it? 16731 A kind of-- PUPPY?"
16731A reflection?
16731A sort of_ dog_?
16731A-- kind of-- puppy?
16731Ai n''t you going to go after it and ketch it? 16731 And I agreed, did n''t I?"
16731And poetry?
16731And the mumps?
16731And then, when it''s all over,continued Avrillia,"I make waffles( are n''t they good, Sara?)
16731Are n''t they?
16731Are you interested in relations?
16731Are you sure you wo n''t faint from loss of air?
16731Avrillia? 16731 But how can you get along without your step?"
16731But how will they get back the lovely grass and flowers?
16731But she''s nice?
16731But the candles? 16731 But what is it?"
16731But-- but what shall I do?
16731Can you really, Schlorge?
16731Did it stick?
16731Did n''t you announce yesterday that you were older than the Snoodle?
16731Do n''t know how I happened to forget it,he said,"but I-- well, fact is, I''m-- where''s a stump?
16731Do n''t you know your own laugh when you see it?
16731Do n''t you remember that you dropped poems over the Verge all day?
16731Do n''t you remember, Sara?
16731Do you hear that?
16731Do you know where she lives?
16731Do you know who Schlorge is?
16731Do you mean you''re sick?
16731Do you throw your poems down there?
16731Do-- do you like them as well as dimples?
16731Does a little girl wear her dimples in The House?
16731Does she?
16731Even fairies?
16731Have a pleasant day?
16731Have you had the measles?
16731How are the children?
16731How many?
16731How old are they?
16731How''s the painting?
16731I forgot-- where''s a stump?
16731Is n''t it?
16731Is-- is that what is meant by step- relations?
16731Is-- isn''t he lovely?
16731Mad or sad?
16731Mad or sad?
16731May-- may I see them?
16731Might-- might I go in?
16731Need some repairs?
16731Now, Sara,she asked,"is there any other simple little thing you''d like to have?
16731Now,said Pirlaps,"how many hands for the bellows?
16731Oh, is she?
16731Oh, what is it?
16731Oh, what is it?
16731Snow?
16731Some fractured dimples, maybe?
16731Then it was n''t Sara this morning-- the strange child with the tears?
16731Was that Sara?
16731Well, Sara, should you like to see the cousins?
16731Well, Sara,said the pleasant fairy- gentleman, taking her hand,"how are you?
16731Well, and are you going to stand there all day staring?
16731Well, do you take me for a human? 16731 Wh- what?"
16731Wh- where?
16731What are rules for, my dear?
16731What are you going to do, Schlorge?
16731What did n''t?
16731What do I want with her old nettle? 16731 What in the world shall I do?"
16731What in the world?
16731What is it?
16731What is it?
16731What is it?
16731What''s down there?
16731What''s in your bag?
16731What''s that?
16731Where are the forceps? 16731 Where did you come from?"
16731Where is the suet?
16731Where''s a stump?
16731Where''s the Snimmy?
16731Where''s the rest?
16731Where''s the stump?
16731Where''s the stump?
16731Who are they?
16731Whose orders?
16731Whose palace is this?
16731Why in Zeelup?
16731Why will they persist in doing it? 16731 Why, did n''t you bring them with you?"
16731Why-- a--he began, and then, remembering, he cried excitedly,"Where''s the stump-- where''s the stump?
16731Will it ever be able to fly again?
16731Will that bring the grass and leaves back?
16731Will you come with us, dear Madame Plynck?
16731Will-- will she fly?
16731Would you like a marshmallow?
16731You like Avrillia?
16731You said it was a good morning, did n''t you?
16731You think so?
16731Your plump friend, here, sitting on''em?
16731--In Zeelup?"
16731After trying to start several times, she finally managed to ask of one of the pleasantest Smiles,"Do you-- do you sell them?"
16731And how was she to get anything to anybody without getting up?
16731And then what do you think happened?
16731And then, what do you think the Teacup saw?
16731And your Paw?"
16731And"anaesthetize"?
16731Any city was a wide- eyed place to Sara; so what of the wonder of a fairy city?
16731Are n''t they nice?"
16731Are you strong enough to wield a pair, Sara?"
16731Avrillia, have you plenty of rose- leaves?"
16731Besides, how could she ever get all that furniture home on the boat?
16731Besides, what time does a bird sing by?
16731But Sara cried out, clapping her hands again with impunity( try doing it that way, sometime-- it''s great fun),"Oh, are there children?"
16731But Sara echoed delightedly,"On rose- leaves?"
16731But before the Multiplicand could answer, his henchman, the Multiplier, called out,"And what do you know of art, Oaf?
16731But presently she could n''t stand not knowing any longer, so she whispered to Pirlaps,"Is-- is it a sort of birthday?"
16731But what can be keeping Avrillia?"
16731But what in the world shall I do about the onions?"
16731Come, what shall it be?"
16731Did n''t you blow as hard as any of''em?"
16731Did you come to see Avrillia?"
16731Do n''t I know Croton capita turn when I see it?
16731Do n''t you hear the Plynck breaking them?"
16731Do n''t you know that modern art is colored geometry?"
16731Do you suppose I''d be without, and him subject to such fits?"
16731Do you think I might?"
16731Has any mortal but Sara ever seen Avrillia?
16731Have you ever seen the quaint rose- jars some old- fashioned ladies have in their parlors?
16731How did it happen?"
16731How''s the poetry, Avrillia?"
16731I did n''t do any harm, did I?"
16731I have n''t any money with me,"she went on doubtfully,--"or any postage stamps,--or any ginger- snaps-- Do you-- do you like kisses?"
16731Is it all gone?
16731It''s never been done, has it?"
16731Now, however, she remembered Sara, and asked,"Would you like to look over?"
16731Ought she not to have told the Snimmy''s wife?
16731Presently the Snimmy, who had been sniffing about the fallen invaders, suggested,"What''s to be done with the remains, begging everybody''s pardon?"
16731Run for Schlorge-- won''t somebody please run for Schlorge?"
16731Shall I call?"
16731She just asked, eagerly,"Is he a-- a sort of-- dog?"
16731She slipped her hand into his as she would into her own father''s, and, looking up into his face, said, enthusiastically,"Oh, is n''t she lovely?"
16731She was almost ready to cry; and to keep from being quite ready, she suggested, tremulously,"Do you suppose I could go after the onions?"
16731She was just about to say, humbly,"Please, might I have a little bread?"
16731Sheep- bells?
16731So she asked the Koopf, quite respectfully,"What ought I to do with them, when I shut the doors and come in?"
16731So she ran up to him and touched his elbow and asked, almost crying,"What is it, Schlorge?
16731So that was the doleful noise she had been hearing, up in the little pine- trees?
16731So the Snimmy said, almost tearfully,"Why did n''t we think to bring some lunch?"
16731So, as she stood and gazed, she said, more in wonder than with any idea of correcting Avrillia,"And you said there were just seventy?"
16731That''s music, ai n''t it?"
16731The Snimmy''s, of course, was sad-- even heartrending; and he was sniffing before he had finished saying,"How do you do, Toast?"
16731The only question in my mind is, How shall we apply it?
16731Then she continued, still more patiently,"Is n''t it just as easy to imagine sides as a bottom?
16731Then, drawing a deep breath, he rubbed his hands and smiled at her, saying,"What''s the next thing you''d like to do?"
16731Then, with a start,"But the suet, Avrillia?"
16731They know nothing of poetry, music or art-- So why in Sam Hill should they think they''re so smart?"
16731Was it possible that she brought anything like this on her own dear, self- willed Mother every time she indulged in a few natural tears?
16731Was there ever such haste and excitement?
16731We have him, have n''t we?"
16731What had happened to her lovely Garden in the night?
16731What new affliction was this?
16731What was it her voice was like?
16731What were those?
16731What will they think of me?"
16731What would Father think when he told her his funniest story and she did not laugh?
16731What''ll your Maw say if you come home without your laugh?
16731Where are the tongs?
16731Where did you get the table?
16731Where shall we go?"
16731Where''s a stump?"
16731Who was Schlorge, for example?
16731Why did n''t I bring my step?"
16731Why should anybody be so dismal?
16731Wo n''t my dress catch?"
16731Wo n''t you learn, Sara?
16731Would it be too much trouble-- could you take me this way?
16731Would you like to go with us?
16731Would you like to see it?"
16731You would n''t think, yourself, that she''d want to sit there, day after day, if there wasn''t-- would you?"
16731You''ve never been there, have you?"
16731and the Plynck bowed( much more gracefully) and responded,"How do you do, Toast?"
16731asked Sara, softly, looking up into the tree; and"Do you think you could stand it?"
16731squeaked the Quotient, fiercely,"Do n''t poets have to count their feet to write poems?"
32217A black cloud? 32217 A gray cloud?
32217A red cloud? 32217 Ah, my poor dove,"the king said,"why are you so sad?
32217Ah, my poor motherless child,he cried,"what shall I do with you now?"
32217Alas,he thought,"what is going to happen to me now?
32217Alas,thought Raduz to himself,"did ever a man have such a task as this?
32217And do neither of your sons know me? 32217 And what can you do?"
32217And why do you keep your eyes bandaged? 32217 Are n''t you glad that I am?"
32217Are you angry with your bridegroom that you hide from him?
32217Are you really the king, Dobromil?
32217Are you sick, Betushka?
32217But what will my mother say to this?
32217But, Plavachek,the king gasped,"where did you get these beautiful horses and all these riches?"
32217But, Yanechek, how can we? 32217 Did you dream?"
32217Do n''t you remember what I told you?
32217Do you expect me to give you a basket for your daughter''s bones?
32217Do you see that blackish lump over yonder?
32217Dobrunka, who gave you all this money?
32217For heaven''s sake, Betushka, what kind of a spool did you bring home yesterday?
32217Forget you? 32217 Grandmother,"he said,"will you be godmother to my child?"
32217Have you drink ready for me? 32217 Have you food ready for me?"
32217Have you spun enough for your wedding shift?
32217Hermit,he said to Raduz,"have you seen two travelers go by here, a girl and a youth?"
32217Hi, there,the shepherd said,"what''s that you''re carrying?"
32217How are you?
32217How can I ever repay you?
32217How can all be well,wept poor Dobrunka,"when I have no eyes and no feet and no hands?
32217How can you be so foolish? 32217 How could I ever become a fine lady?"
32217How could I leave them when I did n''t even see them? 32217 How did you get here?
32217How did you sleep, Dobrunka?
32217Is he your own son?
32217Is it possible, my dear boy,he said,"that you do n''t know what''s the matter?
32217Is it right,she cried out,"that so lovely a creature as I should carry water for that old witch?"
32217Is n''t this a lovely rose? 32217 My business, old mother?
32217My business? 32217 My dear mother,"the queen answered,"why should it stain me with blood-- beautiful innocent creature that it is?"
32217Oh, that''s it, is it? 32217 Oh, what will my mother say?"
32217Star of the day, whom could I have here without your seeing him? 32217 Tell me, what will your father do with two feet?"
32217The Glass Hill? 32217 Two eyes?"
32217Two feet?
32217We''re not behind in our taxes, are we?
32217Well, little June bug, so you''ve been at my brother''s, eh?
32217Well, old wiseacre,said Yezibaba,"what brings you back so soon?"
32217Well, steward,said the king to Bayaya,"how have the affairs of the household gone in my absence?"
32217Well,shouted Yezibaba''s son,"why do n''t you eat?
32217What am I to do today?
32217What am I to do today?
32217What are you afraid of? 32217 What brings you here?"
32217What can you do?
32217What did you dream about, mother?
32217What do I want? 32217 What do I want?"
32217What do you mean by this?
32217What do you want for that spindle?
32217What do you want for the distaff?
32217What do you want?
32217What do_ you_ mean?
32217What does your godmother look like?
32217What has brought you here, Plavachek?
32217What have you heard about my sister?
32217What is it, mother?
32217What is it, mother?
32217What is it, sir, you want?
32217What is it?
32217What is the captive princess doing?
32217What is your name,the prince asked,"and what can you do?"
32217What scoundrel has thrown a log here?
32217What were you doing yesterday,she scolded,"that you did n''t spin your stint?"
32217What''s that thing you''ve got around your neck?
32217What''s the matter, Kubik?
32217What''s the matter?
32217Where could I ever have seen your lordship?
32217Where did I leave them?
32217Where do you live?
32217Where''s Katcha?
32217Who are you?
32217Who are you?
32217Who are you?
32217Who is it?
32217Who knows whether this money will be blessed to our use? 32217 Why are you so long dressing?"
32217Why do you ask me that?
32217Why must n''t you dance today?
32217Why not?
32217Why should it stain me with blood, the dear innocent thing?
32217Why should it stain me with blood?
32217Why so quickly?
32217Why wo n''t you let me sleep, mother?
32217Why, my dear father, do I need any such retinue as you suggest? 32217 Why?"
32217Wo n''t you sit down while I''m getting it?
32217Yi, yi, my boy, how did you get here? 32217 Yi, yi, my boy,"she cried to the prince,"how did you get here?
32217You do n''t know us, do you, Kubik?
32217''What evil spirit has spun that?''
32217After that what else shall I buy?
32217And did n''t you bring me back just one stalk of rye?
32217And is this his bride?
32217And now will you be so kind as to wash my face and give me a bite of supper?"
32217And now you want me to give you back as much as you gave me, eh?
32217Are you still asleep?"
32217As he kisses her and looks into her sweet gentle face he says:"Where were my eyes that I was deceived for an instant by your wicked sister?"
32217At these words the seer leaped out from under the bridge, drew his sword, and shouted:"How dare you insult me?
32217But tell me, reaper, have you seen anything of two young people passing this way?"
32217But what could she do?
32217But what have you ever done for my poor Dorla?
32217But why did you deceive me?"
32217But why do you stand there all day?
32217Can anything be done about it?"
32217Can you guess?"
32217Can you put me on the right road, mother?"
32217Could this youth go for me?"
32217Did you hear anything of it?"
32217Do n''t you know the bitter three days that are at hand for me?"
32217Do n''t you know the calamity that threatens us?
32217Do you see a bird''s nest in the top of that tall fir?
32217Do you suppose Ludmila has been helping him?
32217Does n''t the dumpling taste good?"
32217Has your mate also changed?"
32217Have you any one here, mother?"
32217Have you drink ready for me?
32217Have you drink ready for me?
32217Have you pretty clothes ready for me?"
32217Have you pretty clothes ready for me?"
32217Have you pretty clothes ready for me?"
32217He cut it open, and what do you suppose happened?
32217He looked at his sons with pride and joy and he said to the queen:"But which is the older and which is the younger?"
32217He rested that night and early next morning presented himself to the old witch and said:"What work am I to do today, mistress?"
32217He walked on and on until suddenly a little frog hopped up in front of him and said:"Where are you going, Kubik?"
32217How can I ever thank you for all you have done for me?"
32217How can I finish my task in so short a time?"
32217How could the king possibly think that there was any danger of Bayaya''s stealing the heart of one of the princesses?
32217I think these are your sons, are n''t they?"
32217I wonder what it means?
32217Is there anything to be done to make it flow again?"
32217My lords, do you all agree to this?"
32217Oh, what did I ever do to you, wicked mother, or to you, cruel sister, that you have done this to me?"
32217Out jumped a beautiful maiden fresh from the hand of God, who bowed low before him and exclaimed:"Have you food ready for me?
32217She bowed low and said:"Have you food ready for me?
32217Some goats that were penned in a shed near the house began bleating and the old man said:"You poor things, you want to go to pasture, do n''t you?
32217Suddenly Ludmila said:"I wonder why my left cheek burns?
32217Suddenly Ludmila said:"I wonder why my left cheek burns?
32217Tell me, what does it mean?"
32217That threw her into a fine rage and she called out to her husband:"Now, old man, what have you got to say?
32217The frog hopped into one of these and called out:"Kachenka, my child, where are you?
32217The maiden smiled at her and said in a sweet voice:"Betushka, do you like to dance?"
32217The old woman smiled and said:"Do you know who Grandfather Knowitall is?
32217Then he met an old woman who said to him:"Where are you going, Plavachek?"
32217Then she took him to a window and said:"What do you see out there?"
32217Then the handsome young lord said to the old man:"Do n''t you know me?"
32217Was the lovely lady only fooling her?
32217Well, what do you want?"
32217What can I do on that rocky hillside with a wooden hoe?
32217What do you want?"
32217What if I gave them to the boy?
32217What you did for me at that time was a loan, was it?
32217When a cry goes up and the gates open and I come dragging out the governor, do you step up to me and say:''What do you mean by this?
32217When they finished feasting, Dobromil asked her:"What have you been doing all this time, my dear Dobrunka?
32217When will he be relieved?"
32217When you come to think of it, who would n''t be unhappy at the prospect of being united for life to a frog?
32217Where are you going?"
32217Where are you going?"
32217Where are you going?"
32217Where did you leave them this time?"
32217Where have you been?
32217Where is he?"
32217Where is the princess?"
32217Who gave you so much money?
32217Who would know?
32217Why did n''t you bring me just one shingle from the roof of the chapel?
32217Why did n''t you tell me?
32217Why do n''t you ask some one else?
32217Why does n''t he thrust the oar into the hand of some one else and jump ashore himself?
32217Why have you picked me out?"
32217Will you smell it?"
32217Will you?"
32217Wo n''t you please wash my face?"
32217Wo n''t you spend the night here?
32217You know Katcha?
32217she said,"for all your loving kindness?
32217the farmer cried when at last he found his voice,"where did you get that ring?
32217the farmer cried when at last he was able to speak,"where did you get that kerchief?
11027Ah, wife, what have you done?
11027Ah,they said,"what does this great warrior here in time of peace?
11027And are you not wounded?
11027And what are you carrying in that basket?
11027And where does your grandmother live?
11027Are you asleep, Two- Eyes?
11027Are you awake or asleep, One- Eye? 11027 Are you called Hal?"
11027Are you called Rumpelstiltskin?
11027But how was it that the fox was given all the poor little hens?
11027But where are you?
11027Can you not protect me, then?
11027Do n''t you see that a wretch of a fish is pulling me in?
11027Do you know where to find it?
11027Foolish little one, do n''t you think your father would rather have you, than all the hens he ever had in his yard?
11027Give us some of that,exclaimed the Dwarfs; but she answered,"I have not got enough for myself, so how can I give any away?"
11027Hansel, why do you stop and look about?
11027Have you not shivered?
11027How can you ask me that? 11027 How can you dare,"said she with angry look,"to descend into my garden and steal my rampion like a thief?
11027How does that little performance please you, friend?
11027I never thought to see you alive again,said he;"have you learnt now what shivering means?"
11027Indeed you are a brave fellow,they said,"will you be our captain?"
11027Is that your gratitude?
11027Little dandyprat,replied the Prince,"what do you want to know for?"
11027My dresses, my pearls and jewels, or the golden crown which I wear?
11027My good woman,said he to her,"can you not show me the way out of the forest?"
11027My strength did not fail me,said the Tailor;"do you imagine that that was a hard task for one who has slain seven at one blow?
11027No,he answered;"how should I know?
11027No,replied the youth;"what is it?
11027Now, child,said he to his own daughter,"what will you have?"
11027Now, wife, what have you ready for me?
11027See, my cousin,he exclaimed,"have I not warmed you?"
11027Surely you will not jump into the water?
11027This is not the true bride,said he to the father;"have you no other daughters?"
11027What are you gazing at?
11027What can I give you in return, Two- Eyes?
11027What can I make of this?
11027What do these wicked tricks mean? 11027 What does the Frog want with you?"
11027What does the good- for- nothing thing want in the parlor?
11027What is it you are continually grumbling about?
11027What is it you have for dinner, dear mother?
11027What is that?
11027What is the matter?
11027What is this? 11027 What was that?"
11027What were you doing, little fellow?
11027What will happen?
11027What would you like, dear Frog?
11027What, then, is this condition?
11027Where are the butter and cheese?
11027Where are you going so early, Little Red- Cap?
11027Where are you going?
11027Where are you?
11027Where are your brothers?
11027Where do you want to sit?
11027Where have you been, then?
11027Where is it to be had?
11027Where, then, are you going, dear Bear?
11027Who is your father?
11027Who knows whence the wench comes?
11027Who would go and get more people? 11027 Who''s there?"
11027Who''s there?
11027Why are you knocking me about?
11027Why, how now, good mother,said the princess,"what are you doing there?"
11027Why?
11027Will you dare to contradict me?
11027Will you have better things than we?
11027You little imp, how will you help us?
11027You stupid dandyprat,replied the Prince proudly,"why should I tell you that?"
11027A wagoner walking behind overheard him, and asked,"Who are you?"
11027After he had ridden a long way he met a Dwarf on the road, who asked him,"Whither away so quickly?"
11027All at once the door opened, and in stepped a little Man, who said,"Good evening, fair maiden; why do you weep so sore?"
11027And as he gave no answer, the Duck said:"What are my guests a- doing?"
11027And she asked him:"How fares my child?"
11027And what do you think she found there?
11027And why must I go in that paper cloak?
11027Are you awake or asleep?"
11027Are you not strong enough to hold that twig?"
11027Are you sleeping, or are you waking?"
11027Are you willing to go with me?"
11027As soon as she came in he said to her,"Have you prayed in the church?"
11027But Catherine, stepping in front of the houses, called out,"Good people, what have you that we can steal?"
11027But in the night the kitchen- boy saw a Duck swimming through the brook, and the Duck asked:"King, King, what are you doing?
11027But she thought to herself,"What is the silly Frog chattering about?
11027But the King replied,"Be silent, and let him go; he is my very faithful John-- who knows the good he may have done?"
11027But the King, looking at her with a kindly glance, held out to her his hand, saying,"Will you go with me to my castle, and be my dear wife?"
11027But the old woman called out to her,"What are you afraid of, dear child?
11027But the young King replied,"Who knows what good he has done?
11027But what does that signify?
11027But what wilt thou give me if I succeed in fetching thy plaything up again?"
11027But who knows that?
11027By and by she looked up and saw a Woman standing by, who asked,"Why are you weeping, Two- Eyes?"
11027Ca n''t you come and try to help me?"
11027Ca n''t you think of something better?"
11027Cinderella?"
11027Do you see how your brother works?
11027Do you want to have everything that is here?"
11027Dost thou know that when I first saw the portrait of thy beauteous face I fell down in a swoon before it?"
11027First she said,"Are you called Conrade?"
11027For some time the Giant did not move, until, at last awaking, he pushed his companion, and said,"Why are you hitting me?"
11027Grethel perceived what her thoughts were, and said,"I do not know how to do it; how shall I get in?"
11027Grethel wept bitterly, and said to Hansel,"What will become of us?"
11027Hast thou forgotten Thy promises made At the fountain so clear''Neath the lime- tree''s shade?
11027He came down on the other side, however, unhurt, and the Giant said,"What does that mean?
11027He stared at the children with his red, fiery eyes, and called out,"Why are you standing there?
11027His brothers, however, were hard- hearted, and said,"What could we do with you?
11027How can we feed our children, when we have no more than we can eat ourselves?"
11027How can you bring your heart to leave my children all alone in the wood, for the wild beasts will soon come and tear them to pieces?"
11027Is that proper behavior?"
11027Of all the ladies in the land, Who is fairest?
11027Of all the ladies in the land, Who is fairest?
11027Of all the ladies in the land, Who is fairest?
11027One day, however, his father said to him,"Do you hear, you there in the corner?
11027Presently he came up again to Little Red- Cap, and said,"Just look at the beautiful flowers which grow around you; why do you not look about you?
11027Shall I also have that privilege?"
11027Snow- White looked out of the window, and said,"Good day, good woman; what have you to sell?"
11027So one called out--"Hullo, little man, will you come with us to the king''s treasury?
11027So the girl went home and told her father what the woman had said, and he replied,"What shall I do?
11027So they ate the dry bread together, and presently Fred said,"Catherine, did you make things fast at home before you came out?"
11027The Giant, after he had staggered a very short distance with his heavy load, could go no further, and called out,"Do you hear?
11027The King asked her,"Who art thou?
11027The Knight was bewildered at her great beauty, and said,"You, Two- Eyes, can surely break off a bough of this tree for me?"
11027The Miller''s daughter thought,"Who can tell if that will ever happen?"
11027The boy called out a second time,"What are you doing here?
11027The carriage stopped, and the King asked,"My child, who are you?
11027The fifth,"Who has been handling my fork?"
11027The first said,"Who has been sitting on my stool?"
11027The first words he spoke were,"Who does that beautiful picture represent?"
11027The fourth,"Who has been meddling with my spoon?"
11027The little Man asked,"What will you give me if I spin it for you?"
11027The man smiled and said,"How can that be done; you are far too small to lead the horse by the reins?"
11027The next morning the King came and inquired,"Now have you learnt to shiver?"
11027The next morning the man came, expecting to receive his fifty dollars, and asked,"Now do you know what shivering means?"
11027The second one asked,"Is there no escape?"
11027The second one stopped and looked at him from head to foot; but at last she said,"How can I take a husband who has not a bit of a human countenance?
11027The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?"
11027The seventh,"Who has been drinking my wine?"
11027The sixth,"Who has been cutting with my knife?"
11027The third,"Who has been picking at my bread?"
11027The wagoner asked again,"What do you here?"
11027The young King remarked, however, that the faithful John always passed by one door, so he asked,"Why do you not open that one?"
11027Their sister then asked them, with tears,"Can you not be restored again?"
11027Then Two- Eyes began to sing as before:"Are you awake, Three- Eyes?"
11027Then a sweet voice called out in the room,"Tip- tap, tip- tap, who raps at my door?"
11027Then her husband was alarmed, and asked,"What ails you, dear wife?"
11027Then she began to lament, and to cry more loudly and more loudly; and, as she cried, a voice called out,"Why weepest thou, O King''s daughter?
11027Then the King pitied her, and saw how beautiful she was, and said,"Will you go with me?"
11027Then the first began again, and exclaimed,"What matters that?
11027Then the first looked around and said,"Who has been lying on my bed?"
11027Then the third Crow asked,"Is there no escape?"
11027They asked,"What do you here in the forest, in the winter- time, in this thin cloak?"
11027They called to her and asked,"Who art thou?"
11027Thumbling, however, behaved as if he had not understood this, and cried again,"What do you want?
11027What dost thou upon that tree?"
11027What would you do with such an insignificant little fellow?
11027When milking time came, he shouted--"Drip, drap, drop, Will the milking soon stop?"
11027When shall I begin?
11027When she saw that they would not give her anything she went out at the door, and the three Dwarfs said to each other,"What shall we give her?
11027When she was come into the field she said to herself,"Shall I eat before I cut, or sleep first before I cut?"
11027When the dwarf noticed what they were about, he exclaimed in a great rage,"Is this how you damage my beard?
11027When the maiden was left alone, the Dwarf again appeared and asked, for the third time,"What will you give me to do this for you?"
11027When they awoke, it was quite dark, and Grethel began to cry,"How shall we get out of the wood?"
11027When they had warmed themselves for a little while they said,"Comrade, shall we have a game of cards?"
11027When, after a long sleep, Catherine awoke, she got up half- stripped, and said to herself,"Am I myself?
11027Who knows where our wheat may bloom?"
11027Will they not be sweet?"
11027You laugh, do you?"
11027and so went on singing:"Are you awake, Three- Eyes?"
11027and what do you here?"
11027answered the other,"what are you afraid of?
11027are you here, you old rascal?
11027but do you think I shall wait for you?
11027but, instead of continuing as she should have done,"Are you asleep, Three- Eyes?"
11027cried he,"how have I got into the fulling mill?"
11027cried the dwarf, at the same time becoming red with rage;"and what are you standing there for, making ugly faces?"
11027do you think it is poisoned?
11027he exclaimed,"what are you shrieking for?
11027how fares my fawn?
11027how fares my fawn?
11027how fares my fawn?
11027or am I not?
11027said she;"you who have nothing to wear, no clothes at all, and who can not even dance-- you want to go to the ball?"
11027she exclaimed;"what shall I do that Fred may not find this out?"
11027she said by mistake,"Are you asleep, Two- Eyes?"
11027tell me who?"
11027tell me who?"
11027tell me who?"
11027the misfortune has happened; what will come of it?"
11027what will become of me?"
11027who asked you?"
11027why did you sleep so long in the wood?
11027why not?
11027you old water- paddler,"said she,"was it you that spoke?
30109Ah, my good man,said Drushnevna,"where did you leave Bova Korolevich?
30109And how and by whom were you caged up thus?
30109Are you mad?
30109Ay,said the fool,"and you, who are you, then?"
30109But how can I see the horse, brother Ivashka?
30109But how did you get into the coffin?
30109But how do you know my name?
30109But who are you?
30109But why should I wrap myself up?
30109Do n''t you see it is now winter, and if you do n''t cut wood you will be frozen?
30109How can I help grieving?
30109How can I help it?
30109How is it possible to leap over this high white stone wall?
30109How is that possible?
30109How shall we do that?
30109How so?
30109How, my lord, shall a servant know better than his master to name such a horse?
30109It was their own fault,said the fool;"why did they not get out of the way?"
30109My most beloved friend and intimate, tell me, I pray you, will you never die?
30109Tell me, good youth, whither art thou travelling-- to what far country? 30109 Then,"said the Princess,"where is your death?
30109What brings you to such a desolate place, brothers?
30109What is your name, old brother?
30109What kind of art do you understand then?
30109Who art thou?
30109Why does he beat you so?
30109Why so?
30109Why, have you lost your wits, child?
30109After dinner Mistafor said to his daughter:"What say you now-- is not this Prince Dardavan?"
30109After some time his sisters- in- law said to him again:"Emelyan, why are you lazying there?
30109All this time the fool was fast asleep; when he awoke, and saw that it was quite dark, he said to himself:"Where am I?"
30109An unbelieving knight, with a head as big as a beer- barrel, eyebrows a span apart, and shoulders six feet broad, has entered it?
30109And Kartaus answered:"My good fellow how can we tell who was here?
30109And Prince Lasar answered:"My dear son, whence art thou come like a sunbeam to cheer me?
30109And Prodora answered:"Sir Yaroslav Lasarevich, how can you call me fair?
30109And Yaroslav said:"Whose armies lie here slain?"
30109And have you now the heart to slay me, a poor helpless cripple?
30109And how has God brought you here?"
30109And is this the return you make?"
30109And the Knight''s head said:"Yaroslav Lasarevich, whom seekest thou?"
30109And the Prince of Kiev said to Iliya,"Tell me, brave youth, what is your name, and whence do you come?"
30109And the Tsar said to him:"My friend, is what you have said to the doorkeeper true?"
30109And what is your true name?
30109Are you forsooth a match for me?
30109At last an old woman met him and said:"My good man, where are you going, and how are you going to find your way?
30109At length she arose, went into the wood, and cried aloud with all her strength:"Noble Prince Peter, whither are you gone?"
30109At this the idolator knight fell into a violent rage and exclaimed:"How dare you provoke me with such talk, you miserable cripple?
30109Bova did not feel the blow, but seized a brand, belaboured the cook, and said:"What mean you, scoundrel, to beat your betters?
30109But Bova, my dear boy, why did you not tell me of your mother''s treachery?"
30109But Emelyan said:"What to do?"
30109But Ivashka answered:"Never has man or animal passed this way, and thinkest thou to do so?
30109But Prince Lasar answered:"My son, how canst thou combat such a host, who hast never been in battle?
30109But Yaroslav replied:"Knowest thou me not?
30109But hardly had he approached the couch and attempted to kiss her than the Tsarevna suddenly seized him with both hands, and exclaimed:"Who art thou?
30109But his parents said to him:"Son, you are too young and can not undertake so long a journey; and how can we part with you, our only child left to us?
30109But tell me, Yaroslav, how far are you journeying?"
30109But the Tsar Kartaus answered:"Man, whence are thou, and what is thy name?"
30109But they all replied:"Wherefore, O Tsar, should he die?
30109But where is my beloved wife, your mother?"
30109Do you_ know_ why you must never go under a ladder?
30109Had we not better kill him at once?"
30109Have I grieved you by any ill conduct or cruel words, that you treat me in this way, or have wicked people spoken evil of me to you?"
30109Have you received an unkind word from the Tsar?"
30109He was lying on the stove, and answered:"What is it you want with me?"
30109His host, observing this, asked him:"Why do you never take a walk in the city and see the noble buildings and the old ruins?"
30109How can I help grieving?
30109How does Heaven protect you?"
30109How dost thou dare to come hither?"
30109How fares it with thee?
30109How goes it with you, my lord?
30109I will, in return, render you good service; whenever you are in any difficulty, and want me, only say:''Where is my Bulat, the Brave Companion?''
30109Iliya laughed and said:"What should I do with your treasures?
30109Immediately a man stood up and said:"My lord, Yaroslav Lasarevich, whom dost thou seek?"
30109In an instant Bulat stood before him, and asked:"What service do you require now?
30109In what kingdom dost thou dwell, and who are thy father and mother?"
30109Is it here?"
30109Is it not disgraceful for us to live with him?
30109Ivan came up, and the man said to him:"Why are you so sad, my good lad, Ivan Tsarevich?"
30109Know you not that a great calamity has befallen the famous city of Kiev?
30109Likely enough it has served us once and for all; and what good is it now if it gives us nothing more?
30109MY GRACIOUS MOTHER, WHY HAVE YOU PUT ME IN PRISON?"]
30109Mistafor, enraged against his daughter, exclaimed:"Look ye, did you not say that this was not Prince Dardavan, but the shoemaker Goria Krutshinin?
30109Now, at that time Yaroslav, his father, was in the camp; and when he heard the voice of a strange knight, he cried:"Who comes riding this way?
30109On reaching the place where the horse was, he stopped, and bethought him,"How shall I break through the twelve gates?"
30109Or are you the son of some brave knight, or of a merchant from a foreign land?
30109Page 238--cheeer amended to cheer--"... whence comest thou to warm and cheer us?"
30109Say, why are you sad?
30109So Yaroslav told him, and the Tsar said:"Which way hast thou come, by land or by water?"
30109Suddenly a stranger stood before him, and said:"Why are you in such a passion, my good lad?"
30109Tell me, now, which Wind it is that has blown away your meal?"
30109The Princess answered:"My little fellow Anhusei, how can you ride with Marcobrun''s nobles?
30109The Tsar now asked the sixth Simeon:"What art will you learn?"
30109The horse fell on his knees, and he seized him by his mane and said:"My trusty steed, who shall ride on you if not I your master?"
30109The man answered:"Brave knight, whence art thou come, and what is thy name?"
30109The shoemaker stood aghast on hearing this demand, and replied:"I am indeed only a poor shoemaker, and how can I possibly do such a thing?"
30109The stranger replied:"You are doubtless a foreigner?"
30109Then Bova asked:"Can it be the same Marcobrun who went to seek the hand of the daughter of King Sensibri?"
30109Then Kashtshei began to cry and roar aloud, and said to the Tsarevna Darisa:"Was it not out of love that I told you where my death was?
30109Then Lyubim Tsarevich replied:"Know you where my brothers are?"
30109Then Saltan took the letter, broke the seal, and after reading it exclaimed aloud:"Where are my valiant knights, my faithful servants and warriors?
30109Then Yaroslav Lasarevich exclaimed:"Whence comest thou, boy?
30109Then Yaroslav asked:"But who art thou?
30109Then Yaroslav rode round this army, and cried with a loud voice:"Is there not here one living man?"
30109Then he asked the fifth Simeon:"What trade or what art would you learn, Simeon?"
30109Then he asked the fourth Simeon:"Thou Simeon, what craft or what art will thou learn?"
30109Then he cried with a loud voice:"Is there here no man still alive?"
30109Then he said to Sila Tsarevich:"See you not the evil spirits which troubled your wife?
30109Then he said with a laugh:"Have you any reason for wishing to know?
30109Then little Yaroslav went to his mother and said:"Mother, tell me the truth-- have I a father or no?"
30109Then said Dalmat:"Man, whence comest thou, and what is thy name, and whose son art thou?"
30109Then said Mistafor:"My dear and honoured son- in- law, Prince Dardavan, how is it that you cut so much brown bread and no white?"
30109Then said he to Ivashka:"What name shall I give this horse?"
30109Then said the Tsar:"Why standest thou there, Yaroslav?"
30109Then she asked Prince Astrach:"Wherefore, good youngling, Prince Astrach, art thou come hither-- of thine own free will or not?
30109Then the Tsar Kartaus asked him:"Where hast thou been so long?"
30109Then the Tsar asked the second Simeon:"What craft or art would you learn, my friend?"
30109Then the beggar said:"Tell me, Ivanushka, how strong do you feel?"
30109Then the old man took him by the arm and said:"Poor knight, wilt thou live or die?"
30109Then the old woman said:"What think you?
30109Then the squire went and lay down to sleep, and Ivan cried with a loud voice:"Where is my Bulat, the Brave Companion?"
30109Then the stranger stood up and answered:"Ah, Sila Tsarevich, how can I thank you enough?
30109Thereupon he questioned the third Simeon:"What craft or what art will you learn?"
30109Thereupon the Tsar called his daughter Salikalla and said:"Tell me is this the same man who flew in through your window?"
30109This answer pleased the Tsar, and he said to the eldest Simeon:"Tell me, friend, what art or trade would you like to learn?
30109We are already in years, and to whom should we leave our crown?"
30109What death shall he die?"
30109What has brought you into this country, where rarely a bird flies, and rarely does a beast run?"
30109What is your need?
30109What shall I do with it?
30109What shall I do without my horse?"
30109When Bova was brought to the Court, the King called to him and said:"Tell me, young fellow, to what class do you belong, and what is your name?"
30109When Emelyan saw this he was amazed beyond measure, and he said to the pike:"But will it always be so?"
30109When he came into the room, he went up to the stove and said:"Emelyan, why are you lying there?"
30109When the Princess saw this, she was greatly rejoiced and said:"But, Emelyan, where shall we live?
30109When the Tsar heard of such a wicked art, he grew angry, and said to his boyars:"My Lords, how do you advise me to punish this thief Simeon?
30109When they rose from the table and retired, the fool said to the King:"Does your Majesty know who I am?"
30109Whence comest thou, what is thy name, and whose son art thou?"
30109Wherefore so sad, my lord?"
30109Who knows but that he may be a clever thief, and prove useful in case of need?"
30109Whose son art thou, and what is thy name?"
30109Why did I take the rings out of their place of safety?
30109Why have you brought back no flour?"
30109Why have you put me in prison and given me no food on purpose to let me die of hunger?
30109Why have you put your horse to feed on another''s corn, and lain down to sleep in another''s tent?
30109Why ride you so sorrowfully, my lord?
30109Yaroslav Lasarevich was greatly rejoiced, and said to his son:"Hast thou been to visit my brother- in- law, Prince Ivan the Russian Knight?"
30109Yaroslav looked at the road, and said to himself:"Who travels this road, a great army or a stout knight?"
30109Yaroslav stepped into the hut, bowed to the man, and said:"Old brother, what has happened to this kingdom?"
30109You are young, my child, and can not avenge your father''s death; indeed, who knows but that she may kill you likewise?
30109and dost thou go of thine own free will or no?"
30109and how comes it that you are in this desert spot?"
30109and you-- who are you?"
30109have I engaged you only to sleep?"
30109how long have we been sleeping here?"
30109inquired Ivashka;"what is thy name, and whence comest thou?"
30109is it not a shame for your Grace to contrive such wickedness?
30109my gracious mother, fair Queen Militrisa, why are you so enraged against me?
30109my gracious mother, why have you put me in prison?"
30109said Goria;"what nonsense are you talking?"
30109said the officer,"what do I want with you?
30109they exclaimed,"you are lazy?
30109why have you caught me?"
30109will you go away without asking an old woman like me how you can gain the Self- playing Harp?"
30109you are lazy?"
15482About the aunt?
15482Ah, Miss MacLean, may I speak with you a moment?
15482Aighe-- wull it do?
15482An''could we put up a sign furninst,''No Trusters Allowed''?
15482An''goin''away?
15482And I''ll not have to give them up?
15482And Toby?
15482And did the next bring love?
15482And does your back need it, too?
15482And have n''t I come to keep the promise?
15482And retain Margaret MacLean in charge?
15482And so you make believe that Trustee Day is n''t really bad?
15482And the next one brought happiness-- didn''t she?
15482And then-- then-- Oh, could n''t the one after her bring beauty? 15482 And we''ll all be happy together-- somewhere?"
15482And we''ll find the children there?
15482And who knows but the faeries may have come and stolen them all away?
15482And you wo n''t unless I do?
15482And you''ll have them, too?
15482Are the children very much broken up over it?
15482Are ye sure ye''re the queen?
15482Are you ill?
15482But I thought you told me last night we were all going together? 15482 But ca n''t you understand?"
15482But the new surgical ward-- and science?
15482But who ever heard of one in a hospital? 15482 Can any one tell me when Miss MacLean''s time expires?"
15482Could ye-- could ye get one for the price of a penny?
15482Could yer buy a dorg?
15482Did she decorate you?
15482Dinna ye ken the wee gray woman''at cam creepity round an''smiled?
15482Do I get a piece o''paper sayin''I paid the money on it?
15482Do n''t you know that no one must disturb a primrose ring? 15482 Do n''t you want to go back?"
15482Do ye think, Sandy, that ye could scrooch out o''bed an''hump yerself over to them? 15482 Do ye think, now, she might ha''been me aunt?"
15482Do you know what is going to happen some day? 15482 Do you mean to say you paid for them out of your own wages?"
15482Dreading it as much as usual?
15482Every one of those cases could get into, some of the other hospitals; but who would take the incurables? 15482 Guess yer could n''t guess what I dreamt last night, Miss Peggie?"
15482Have n''t you noticed how all mother''s little peculiarities are growing on her? 15482 Have you any shoes got?"
15482Have you forgotten so soon? 15482 Have you never looked into a glass, Thumbkin?"
15482Honest to goodness, Susan, do ye think the likes o''ye could belong to the likes o''that?
15482How did you know it? 15482 How do I know what I would do?
15482How do you do?
15482How do you know?
15482I wonder-- is your magic working all right to- day? 15482 Is it as bad as all that?"
15482Is the song ready, now?
15482Is there any one objectin''to payin''this down for a home?
15482Is there any way of buyin''a dog into a horspital?
15482Is there anything you want?
15482It would be rather a Balaam and his ass affair, but, as Miss MacLean suggests, why not try it?
15482Now how did you ever happen to think of bringing these-- to- day?
15482Now tell me, did they make you go, too?
15482Oh, Michael, do n''t you remember, the next time you were going to say''God bless you''?
15482Oh, my dear-- my dear--and the Superintendent''s voice had almost broken--"what shall we do without you?
15482Operation?
15482Pants?
15482Perhaps you would like to see the new pictures for the nurses''room?
15482Perhaps-- perhaps,she stammered, pitifully,"after what I have said you would rather I did not stay on-- in charge of Ward C?"
15482Phat are ye wantin''wi''''em?
15482Phat wull a do the noo?
15482Porridge?
15482Precautionary disinfecting?
15482Really, Sandy?
15482Shall I guess?
15482So-- you have likewise heard from the widow of the Richest Trustee?
15482Sure, an''silk dresses an''straw hats wi''ribbon on them, an--"Will shoes in the chest be?
15482Sure, was n''t I knowin'', an''could I be afther bringin''anythin''else? 15482 Take what?"
15482The incurable ward and Margaret MacLean have really been a terrible responsibility, have n''t they? 15482 The trustees"--she drew in a quick breath and put out a steadying hand on the banisters--"you mean-- they have given up the incurable ward?"
15482The what?
15482Then ye been''t the wee gray woman-- back yonder?
15482Well, do n''t ye ever say it ag''in-- do ye hear? 15482 Well, what are you going to do about it?"
15482Well,and Bridget put both arms akimbo and smiled a smile of complete satisfaction,"what was I a- tellin''ye, anyways?
15482Well,he found himself saying at last--"well, what is it?"
15482Well--"I thought you said I was n''t to move or speak, or the spell would be broken?
15482Well?
15482What do you mean, dear? 15482 What is it, dear?"
15482What is it, dearest? 15482 What kind of a home?"
15482What might it be?
15482What''s him?
15482What''s that for?
15482What''s that?
15482What''s that?
15482What''s that?
15482What-- what was it you expected?
15482What?
15482What?
15482Who der thunk it? 15482 Why not faeries?"
15482Why not? 15482 Why not?
15482Why, dearest?
15482Why, what''s happenin''to- day?
15482Will one do ye?
15482Will some one motion that we adopt the two measures we have suggested? 15482 Will they fit?"
15482Wobins?
15482Would it be big enough for nine childher-- an''one dog; an''would it be afther havin''all improvements like Miss Peggie an''the House Surgeon?
15482Would n''t to- morrow do?
15482Would n''t you like to come in and talk to the children? 15482 Would n''t you two like to go into the consulting- room and talk it over?
15482Would you go with him-- if he came?
15482Would you promise not to make any noise?
15482Ye have n''t by any chance forgotten somethin''ye''d like to be rememberin'', have ye?
15482Yes, would n''t you like to go in?
15482You remember, Thumbkin, about that sleep? 15482 ''Can ye improve it any?'' 15482 ''What''s that?'' 15482 Almost prophetic, was n''t it?
15482And Peter piped out,"Trusterday, ai n''t it, Miss Peggie?"
15482As for that head of yours, it bobs like a penny balloon among the clouds looking for--""Faeries?"
15482But when is it going to happen?"
15482Ca n''t you see her raising those lorgnettes of hers and saying,''My good boy, do you read your Bible?''
15482Ca n''t you see that yourself?
15482Can you hear anything?"
15482Can you hear something-- some one coming nearer and nearer and nearer?"
15482Could n''t we?"
15482Could not minds like theirs be taught to walk alone, after all?
15482Could ye be buyin''a home for childher an''dogs for the price of a penny?"
15482Did not their brains go in the end, too, and leave just a breathing husk behind?
15482Did you ever think what it could be like-- if the trustees would only make it something more than-- a matter of business?
15482Do n''t ye mind?
15482Do n''t you like them?"
15482Do n''t you think it sounds-- hopeful?"
15482Do n''t you understand?
15482Do you?"
15482Does any one ever get married in Saint Margaret''s?"
15482Faith, do n''t it beat all how things come thrue-- when ye think''em pleasant an''hard enough?"
15482Have I been dreaming?"
15482Have you noticed how much she naps in the evening, now?"
15482How could you have given her a penny?"
15482How did you know it?"
15482How many are there now?"
15482Instead of that I fear at times that you are-- shall I say-- flippant?"
15482Is n''t it?"
15482Is that not very foolish?
15482Is that not worth considering?"
15482Is there any knowledgeable one among ye that knows aught of a primrose ring?"
15482Is there any one more competent to take charge?"
15482Is there anything dearer to the pride of a child than boots-- new boots?
15482It was a man''s shadow, and the voice of the House Surgeon came over the threshold in a whisper:"What are you doing-- burying ghosts?"
15482It was n''t exactly fair to leave me behind, was it?"
15482May I pass?"
15482Now shall we go on with the story?"
15482Now why waste that room for no purpose?"
15482Now, all together,''We wish--''""Can we go''thout any clothes?"
15482Of course I know it is very much out of the accustomed order of things, but why not try it?
15482Only-- only why could n''t they have taken me with the children?
15482Sad, is n''t it, in so young a child?
15482Say, would n''t you hate to have charity stuffed down your throat that way?"
15482Shall we?"
15482She has written you?"
15482She reached out her hands and patted theirs in turn, asking,"Now what is your name, dearie?"
15482So I thought it would be nice to have something different-- once in a while; and then the old things would taste all the better-- don''t you see?
15482Somewhere-- somewhere-- he knew of hundreds of them-- or were there only a few?
15482That you wish to do the greatest possible good to the greatest number of children?
15482The arguments wax hot at times, and it is Bridget who generally has to put in the final silencing word:"Faith, she kept her promise, did n''t she?
15482The question came from the set lips of the nurse in charge of Ward C."How do we know anything in science?
15482Was it for self- sacrifice?"
15482Was she building up for them an ultimate discontent in trying to make life happy and full for them now?
15482Was this why they had searched him out?
15482Well, do you not see how continuing to keep a number of incurable cases for two or three years-- or as long as they live-- is hindering this?
15482Well, what more do ye want?"
15482Were n''t we afther givin''a penny to the wee one yondther for the home?"
15482Were n''t ye afther givin''us the promise of a home?"
15482What are pockets for, anyway?"
15482What are you doing?
15482What did people do who had to live with dead, paralyzed bodies, dependent upon others to execute the dictates of their brains?
15482What do ye think that C on the door means?"
15482What is going to happen to us?"
15482What would you do with the children in Ward C, now?"
15482What would you say to that?"
15482What''s ailin''?"
15482What''s the news?"
15482What''s the news?"
15482Who der thunk it?"
15482Who did ye ever hear say that?"
15482Who knows?"
15482Why not add your second surgical ward to Saint Margaret''s and do all the good work you can, as you had planned?
15482Why should n''t we ask them?
15482Why should the children ever have to do without her-- unless-- unless something came to them far better-- like Susan''s mythical aunt?
15482Will you come to see me as soon as you can and let us talk it over?"
15482Will you please signify by raising your hands if it is your wish that Miss MacLean''s resignation be accepted at once?"
15482Will you please tell me how you, of all people, ever evolved these-- ideas-- out of Saint Margaret''s?"
15482Would n''t you remember what life had been in that hospital crib, and would n''t you fight to make it happier for the children coming after you?
15482Would n''t you?"
15482Would you mind putting it into scientific American?"
15482Wull it nae mair coom back?"
15482Wull ye tak it frae me noo?"
15482You will only shake it off on the children, and it''s time enough for them to bear it when they wake up in the morning and find out--""Find out what?"
15482and everything come thrue, has n''t it?
15482answered back the administering nurse, and then she asked, solemnly,"How''s Toby?"
15482or,"What''s happened next?"
34431Are you my betrothed who has disappeared from her own land?
34431Are you quite sure these are the two royal babes we threw into the river?
34431Are you sure he said both of them?
34431Are you sure that it is not eighteen years which the fairy said, instead of twenty years?
34431Are you the daughter of the king of Naples?
34431At what time?
34431Did you ever see the Virgin?
34431Did you say both of them?
34431Do you happen to need a servant?
34431Do you know that the king of Naples has a daughter?
34431Do you live here in the forest all alone?
34431Do you recognize these?
34431Do you see this table? 34431 Do you think I would abandon this expedition now?"
34431Does my lady know with whom she is going away?
34431Faithless wretch that I am, what shall I say to my betrothed if good fortune and the sea permit me to stand once more at her side?
34431Have I been dreaming?
34431Have you seen my hunting dog?
34431He will keep his promise and send his messengers, do n''t you think so?
34431How are the flowers of my garden?
34431How can we spare our big sister?
34431How did I get here?
34431How did my prescription succeed, dear daughter?
34431How do you know?
34431How is it with you?
34431How much did the king pay you?
34431How shall I get across?
34431How shall we be able to approach this magic palace and rescue Perola?
34431How shall we be able to break her enchantment?
34431If the storytellers can not make the princess happy, who can?
34431Is my boy happy there and is he well?
34431Is my staff ready?
34431Is this my godchild?
34431Manoel Littlebean, what have you been doing?
34431May I ask who you are?
34431May I come some day to sell you pretty things?
34431May I go to the feast?
34431Oh, must I suffer more?
34431Oh, why did I allow another fair face to crowd out from my heart the image of my beloved?
34431Tell me, mother, who was outside my window a moment ago?
34431Tell me,she cried,"is there no way of getting him back?
34431Very well,said he,"if you wo n''t take my word for it, why does n''t Pinepuller stay in the kitchen and cook these hares?
34431We have perhaps a chance of getting our wishes, but what chance have you?
34431Well, little mother, what can I do for you to- day?
34431Well,said the king to the eldest girl,"do you want to marry the royal baker?"
34431Were you there?
34431What about the wolf?
34431What are you carrying in your basket?
34431What are you carrying in your basket?
34431What are you doing here, little penny chicken?
34431What can I do about it?
34431What can she do that I ca n''t do?
34431What children are these?
34431What country do you come from?
34431What do you mean by playing such a trick on me?
34431What do you mean,he thundered,"by telling such a story about Queen Honoria''s magic powers?"
34431What do you say to marrying the royal meatcook?
34431What do you suppose is cooking in this kettle?
34431What do you suppose that page is saying now?
34431What do you think it is?
34431What do you wish, good mother?
34431What does Queen Honoria do that is so clever?
34431What does that pretty little maid intend to do with that stone?
34431What does this mean?
34431What have we here?

34431Why are you crying, my boy?
34431Why did n''t we wish to be queens or at least princesses?
34431Why did she never come to me?
34431Why do n''t I get that sifter?
34431Why do n''t you go to the Wiseman of the Sea and tell him your troubles?
34431Why is it that I, the queen of this magnificent palace, can have no baby of my own?
34431Why is it that I, the ruler of this vast rich kingdom, can have no child to inherit my wealth and my domains?
34431Why is it that you have not kept your word? 34431 Why is she more clever than I am?"
34431Why should n''t she marry the king?
34431Why, my boy, do you do such a thing as this?
34431Why?
34431Will somebody please pass the pepper?
34431Will you be godfather to my baby daughter?
34431Will you go hunting with me to- morrow, father?
34431Would you break the vow which you solemnly made to the fairy in my presence?
34431Would you like to marry the listening king?
34431You do not have to fear Death now, grandfather, do you?
34431Can it be that you have failed to recognize them?"
34431Do you mind, mother dear, if I take this journey?"
34431Do you not know some means of breaking the power which this water- nymph has over him?"
34431Have they not often seen the fairy garments spread out upon the rocks in the bright sunshine?
34431Next time you come for me will you please be so kind as to send messengers in advance to give me a little warning?"
34431She selected a number of the wares and then she asked,"What is the price of these?"
34431The next day the young man said to his father:"Will you buy a saddle and bridle for me if I turn myself into a horse?"
34431Then he asked:"Does any one know whether or not the king of Naples has a daughter?"
34431Then he said to Death:"O Death, why is it that you have come in search of me so soon?
34431What will you sell him for?"
34431Where have you been?"
34431Where is father?"
34431Where is your mother now?"

39712What han yo''theere, men?
39712Where are you, Waldmann?
39712''"What han yo''got theere?"
39712''And thou no longer wilt refuse me the security?''
39712''Art thou prepared to behold the dead?''
39712''Art thou ready to sign?''
39712''But owd Jemmy dusn''t care, an''why should he?
39712''Dost thou, Mortal, bow to my power?''
39712''Han yo''bin awsin to raise th''devul, an''Kesmus- eve an''o''?''
39712''Hast thou at length recognised me, Jeremiah?''
39712''Is there no escape,''plaintively asked the victim in his extremity,''is there no escape?''
39712''See what?''
39712''Summat wrong at your fowk''s, happen?''
39712''Th''Gabriel Ratchets,''{33} he shouted,''what''s abaat to happen?''
39712''Then I did not simply dream that I had blessed the site?''
39712''Then ye slept, did ye?''
39712''What art thou, wherefore dost thou watch me at this hour, and what hast thou seen?''
39712''What he s ta done with th''milk to- neet?''

39712''Wheer is he?''
39712''Wodever con be up?
39712''Yo''miss your neet- mon?''
39712Am I, then, not to succeed until I try the charm of charms at the risk of life itself?
39712And yet,''said he, unconscious of the presence of the terrified listener,''what should I fear?
39712As she stood almost paralysed, again came the terrible whisper, and this time she heard the question--''Who for this time?''
39712At length, however, the saltatory fiend asked in a shrill and unpleasant voice,''Rash fool, what wantest thou with me?
39712Believe i''Fairies?
39712But if so, thought he, why did she continue to march in a line with him?
39712Couldst thou not wait until in the ultimate and proper course of things we had met?''
39712Darest thou first behold me?''
39712Doth this hovel resemble the abode of a possessor of great wealth?
39712Dust think it''s a warnin'', an''I''m abaat to dee?''
39712If he was able to charm away evil and sickness, could he not also bring sickness and evil?
39712In one of them?
39712Others had lighted the witches, and thereby secured a twelvemonth''s immunity from harm, and why should not he go and do likewise?
39712Thaart not Belsybub, are ta?''
39712That''s fair, is n''t it?''
39712The old man chuckled at this sally, and then said, slowly and drily:--''Speyk for thisen, Robin-- speyk for thisen; an''yet why should ta speyk at o?
39712This oftentimes being followed by a petition from the assembled relatives--''Will yo tell us if he wir one o''th''processioners?''
39712Upon which there was a shout of laughter, and a sturdy young fellow asked--''And I did not dream that I carted six loads from the quarry?''
39712Was a cow or a child ailing?
39712Was it some one who had no business to be out at that hour, and who did not wish to be recognised, he wondered?
39712Was the stranger a thief, or worse?
39712Was there but a poor field of wheat?
39712Who do you think was in one of them?
39712With such a gaping family to satisfy, what regard could the old lady retain for the Eighth Commandment?
39712was n''t that the dinner gong?''
39712when every minute there is a fresh expression upon its beautiful front?
26019Ah, would n''t you have liked to have been there?
26019And what is the richest?
26019And what''s this for?
26019But at any rate, there you have your trees cut down, what more do you want?
26019But is there no remedy for that?
26019But is there nothing to remedy that?
26019But what shall we do with the house?
26019But where are the horses?
26019Can you do that?
26019Did you know him in Paradise?
26019Do what?
26019Does he want for anything?
26019Have you not heard, sir,asked the landlady,"that the Dragon with the Seven Heads has been eating up a pure maiden every month?
26019How are you going to do it?
26019How can I find your sister?
26019How can that be?
26019How could that be?
26019How did you do it?
26019How did you manage to get him there?
26019How do you know that?
26019How do you know that?
26019How have you earnt so much money?
26019How shall we carry him?
26019Is n''t that just like a man?
26019Is that so?
26019Is there no place where you can hide yourself?
26019Is this all I''m to get to eat?
26019Know you not, sir,said the hostess,"that our princess marries to- morrow?"
26019Mortal,said the Beast,"who told thee thou mightest pluck my roses?"
26019My mother in the tread- mill?
26019No,she replied,"why should I?"
26019Now what is it?
26019Perhaps they wo n''t agree,said the man;"what are we to do then?
26019There are your eggs, what more do you want?
26019Well, Jack, what is it?
26019Well, Jack,said his father,"what have you learnt at school?"
26019Well, what about the money?
26019Well, why not take it now?
26019What do you mean by giving me this?
26019What do you want for it?
26019What is that to do with me?
26019What is that? 26019 What is that?"
26019What is that?
26019What other things?
26019What shall I do? 26019 What shall I get if I do?"
26019What shall I hand out first, the spoons or the ladles?
26019What shall we wear, mother; what shall we wear?
26019What was his name?
26019What''s that you are saying?
26019What''s the next thing?
26019What, the mare?
26019What, thou low- born mortal,cried the Queen;"how didst thou dare to we d my son?"
26019Who are you?
26019Who is she?
26019Who lives there?
26019Whom do you mean by your Master- Maid?
26019Why no,said Reynard,"how could that be?
26019Why, how could you fish for these? 26019 Why, what can you do?"
26019Why, what have you done?
26019Why, what-- when-- how?
26019Will you give me the first thing that meets you as you come to the palace gate?
26019You should n''t have done that without my telling you; but where''s the money?
26019You told me to clean them within and without and how could I clean them within without killing them?
26019You''ve been so good to me, shall I do you harm? 26019 After a time Grizzle began to cry and said,Where''s father?
26019After the king had heard all the music, the bird said:"What does your Majesty think of it?"
26019Ai n''t you got a horse or a donkey that I can take along with me to carry them?
26019And after a while the old witch said to her,"Grizzle, Grizzle, is the oven hot?"
26019And as they were resting by the roadside Jack said to his companions,"Who would have thought it?
26019And every morning she used to stand before her mirror and say:"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
26019And he called out to them:"Who is there here that knows where the Land is East o''the Sun and West o''the Moon?"
26019And he pointed to a tree that had fallen by the wayside and said:"Help me carry that, will you?"
26019And he went back to the princess and said to her:"Will you play me for this tablecloth?"
26019And how do we know that he''ll bring Dobbin back to- morrow?
26019And still a third time the giant called out:"Are you asleep?"
26019And the King said,"Who is she?"
26019And the Prince took her back to her mother''s house, and then he asked,"Have you no other daughter?"
26019And the man took the sow and followed it along the road till he came to another inn, and said to the landlady,"Have you room for me and my sow?"
26019And what do you think she did?
26019And when he did so the fox whispered,"What will you give me if I get you out of this?"
26019And when he had said that it was, he said,"Is she willing to stop here with me?"
26019And when the princess saw George with his horse and his sword and his dog she asked him,"Why come you here, sir?
26019And when they came around him he called out:"Which of you knows where is the Land East o''the Sun and West o''the Moon?"
26019Are you likely to go back?"
26019Are you perfectly happy?
26019As soon as he was gone the girl''s aunt opened the bag and said,"What has happened, my dear?"
26019But Anima cried out in fear and trembling:"But who art thou?
26019But Miss Puss, when she heard it, called out:"Had you not better throw me into the mill stream?"
26019But after Jack''s father had offered him the basin of water, and his mother the towel, Jack said to them,"Do you not know me, mother?
26019But do you know what is necessary to make you really happy?
26019But do you know what you want now?
26019But if you lose what do you lose?"
26019But just at that moment they looked back, and what do you think they saw?
26019But she cried out:"Oh, I must go back to my father and mother; how shall I go?
26019But the wolf said to him:"What''ll you do for me if I let you out?"
26019But the youngest said,"Why did you sigh so deeply when you gave me my rose?"
26019But when it came out of its cage and got near Androcles, what do you think it did?
26019But when it saw George it called out,"Can''st fight?"
26019But you must n''t tell anybody; you''ll promise, wo n''t you?"
26019Did you meet there my poor dear husband, Lord rest his soul?"
26019Did you use that comb I gave you yesterday?"
26019Do n''t you think so?
26019Do you not know me, father?"
26019Do you see him lying there?
26019He did not know how to get home, when suddenly a huge giant came out of the forest and said:"What would you give if I carried you across?"
26019He found the garden and the bird, which, as soon as it saw him, exclaimed:"What is the matter, noble sir; have you come for me?
26019He had n''t gone far when he met a giant, and went up to him and said:"Well, comrade, how goes it with you?"
26019How do we know that he is going to Paradise?
26019How shall I go?"
26019Mr. Batten, who made the pictures for your mummey''s book, has made some more for yours-- isn''t it good of him when he has never seen you?
26019Next morning the Queen went once more to the mirror on the wall, and called out:"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
26019Next morning the Queen went to the mirror on the wall and said to it:"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
26019Next morning the Queen went up as usual to her mirror, and called out:"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"
26019Now how do you think the cat used to help John to live?
26019Oh, wo n''t that be nice?
26019On his way he met a hermit, who asked him,"Where are you going, cavalier?"
26019P.S.--Do you hear me calling as I always do,"Peggy, Peggy"?
26019Shall we not?"
26019She cried and said:"Ah, why did you not do what I told you-- put all my bones together in their place?
26019She entered and said:"What is the matter, my daughter; how do you do?
26019She screamed out, and the master came running up and said:"What''s this, Jack, what''s this?"
26019Shortly afterwards her husband came home and said,"What''s become of Dobbin?
26019So Tom, who was working in the front room, came and asked Joan,"What''s all this?
26019So after waiting some time he called out again:"Are you asleep?"
26019So he rushed up the stream and met a neighbour who said,"Tom, Tom, what are you running for?"
26019So he went in and said,"Can you give me beds for me and my girl here?"
26019So one of them said to her:"But Anima, how marry a man without ever seeing him?
26019So the aunt took a big dog and put it in the sack; and when the man came the next morning he said,"Where''s my girl?"
26019So the men went up to the man and said:"Will you sell that lad?"
26019So when he got it he went to an inn by the roadside and said to the landlady,"Can you give me lodging for the night, me and my pea?"
26019So when he went up to the palace he offered to play a game with her, but she said to him:"What are your stakes?
26019So when the carriage came along the King called one of the men to the side of it and said,"Whose is this field?"
26019So when the matter came up for trial before the King he asked first the farmer''s neighbour,"What is the most beautiful thing?"
26019Soon after, the Bear and the man heard a noise like"Bow- wow, Bow- wow"; and the Bear came to the man and said,"What''s that?"
26019Suddenly there appeared before them the Beast who said to the merchant,"Is this thy youngest daughter?"
26019That giant rose up and said to his fellow giant,"What do you do that for?"
26019The King was rather startled but thought to himself:"Oh, how will the giant know who met me?
26019The Supernatural Birth, which is also treated by M. Saintyves(?)
26019The giant waited for some time after they had gone upstairs and then called out:"Are you asleep?"
26019The king was astonished at hearing the Speaking Bird, and answered:"What should I think?
26019Then Reynard called out from the wood,"What''s that black thing you''ve got there?"
26019Then Will rode up to the stable on the lord''s horse and said:"Am I not a Master Thief?"
26019Then he asked him,"What is the strongest thing?"
26019Then he asked him,"What is the strongest?"
26019Then he asked,"What is the richest thing?"
26019Then he asked:"Which of you knows where is the Land East o''the Sun and West o''the Moon?"
26019Then he said to her:[ Illustration: The Princess Finds Horns on her Head]"Now, will you marry me?"
26019Then he turned to the farmer and asked him,"What is the most beautiful thing?"
26019Then he went to his Queen in a towering rage and said to her,"How dare you interfere in my judgments?"
26019Then he woke up and saw her, and knew that she had broken her promise, and said:"Oh, Anima, oh, Anima, why hast thou done this?
26019Then the Princess looked in the mirror and said:"Have I not skin as white as snow, and cheeks as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony?
26019Then the Princess said,"What price?"
26019Then the fairy who had given them the deer came and said:"Now that you have grown up, how can you stay here any longer?"
26019Then the king asked the marshal,"Know you aught of this?"
26019Then up rose George and spoke to the king and said,"And pray, my lord, how does it happen that the dragon''s heads had no tongues?"
26019They called the nurse and said to her:"Nurse, what does this mean?
26019Was n''t that funny?
26019What do you think I am made of?"
26019What does that bird say just above our heads in the tree there?"
26019What has become of him?"
26019What have you been doing?"
26019What is happening?"
26019What is the most beautiful thing?
26019What is the strongest thing?
26019What is to be done?
26019What is to be done?"
26019What shall I do?"
26019What shall we do?
26019What shall we do?"
26019What were they to do?
26019What were they to do?
26019What''s the next thing I must do?"
26019What''s the use of waiting for the third?
26019When John the True saw his foster- brother pining away he went to him and said:"What ails thee, Oh sire?"
26019When he came there his father came to the carriage and bowed to him and asked him,"What is your pleasure, sir?"
26019When he woke up next morning he asked,"Where am I, and why are you still with me?"
26019When the farmer came up to him he got down from Juniper and said,"What are you doing there?"
26019When the giant came home, he asked the Prince:"Where is the birds''nest?"
26019When the morning came, the giant pointed to the tallest tree in the forest near them, and said:"Do you see that birds''nest in the top of that tree?
26019When the priest of the village saw these lights moving over the cemetery he came to the door and watched them and called out:"What is that?"
26019When they had seated themselves at the table, the king said:"Come, bird, you promised me you would speak; have you nothing to say?"
26019Where''s father?
26019Wherefore did''st thou do that, John?"
26019Which do you think is right?"
26019Which way did he go?"
26019While he was walking up and down an old woman, bent double, came up to him and said:"Please, sir, may I warm myself by your fire?"
26019Who art thou?
26019Who told you how to answer so cleverly?"
26019Who was that?"
26019Why did n''t you knock at the door and ask to have something, and I would gladly give it to you?"
26019Why do you not do the same?"
26019Will you not sell it to me?"
26019Wo n''t that be nice too?
26019Would you like to have a drink?"
26019Would you like to know the reason?
26019[ Illustration:"Had You not Better Throw me into the Millstream?"]
26019[ Illustration:"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of us all?"]
26019[ Illustration:"Will you Mind my Pea?"]
26019and one of the fairies said:"What present shall we make these children?"
26019and, What is the richest thing?
26019are our nephew and niece alive?"
26019how did he manage to get that water?"
26019you here, too?
26448After which?
26448Ah, my son, who can say? 26448 Am I getting a coward?"
26448And be thy quarry?
26448And everybody wants to get rid of him?
26448And go from Oyster- le- Main and the tithings?
26448And he''s robbing your father?
26448And is it so much as that?
26448And so thou''rt to be married?
26448And what may the legend be, my daughter?
26448And what would you with me?
26448And where else would you be on Christmas- day but in your own house?
26448And why do you think that such a peril upon your part would do away with this Dragon?
26448Are there no keys?
26448Art thou altogether unslakable? 26448 But how to get out of the pit?
26448But how will you prevent him, if he visit your cellar again?
26448But on Christmas Eve?
26448But this plan?
26448Can I steal the keys of the pit? 26448 Can not you jump from the little window at the back?"
26448Can-- can''t he do anything?
26448Did you expect me to clap him in a box- stall and feed him?
26448Do I see a light?
26448Do n''t you hear me? 26448 Do n''t you see?
26448Do n''t you think,he added, wistfully,"that another Crusade may come along soon?"
26448Do you mean when I met you?
26448Do you not see the Dragon of Wantley would have to carry a maiden away? 26448 Do you suppose a wicked, ravenous dragon with a heathen tail is going to care whether it is Christmas Eve or not?
26448Do you suppose that papa, with all his experience, could n''t tell it was an imitation dragon? 26448 Dost suppose,"he said,"that we should have abstained from any trick that''s known to the accumulated wisdom of man?
26448Elaine,he said,"my dear?"
26448For your sake? 26448 For your sake?"
26448Had n''t you better apprise his ludship of the facks?
26448Has she never loved any man?
26448Hast thou, my daughter,said Father Anselm,"thought better of thy rash intentions concerning this Dragon?"
26448Have you come for nothing, Geoffrey?
26448Heard it? 26448 How about that pretty young man?
26448How can there be a dragon if there is not a dragon?
26448How can you come in here, Elaine?
26448How do you know that I should be eaten up?
26448How for disrobing, brothers? 26448 How if Sir Dragon had found the maid chained instead of the ancient widow?"
26448How is this, my daughter?
26448How long am I to stay in this place?
26448How much more of this before they will awaken?
26448How now?
26448How shall he kill me here?
26448I am not going to-- does he suppose anybody that pleases can come carting their dragons through my premises? 26448 I suppose it is their museum,"he said;"do n''t you?"
26448If I dare?
26448Is it morning?
26448Is there no dragon to roast?
26448It waked me up- stairs, and I ran to get you in your room, and you----"It-- it? 26448 Keys?
26448Lady, who sent you here?
26448Malvoisie, thou oaf?
26448Matter? 26448 Meanwhile, till that event happen, the Dragon can rage unchecked?"
26448My house and my sustenance?
26448My respected grandsire be----"_ What?_said the Abbot.
26448Need of Father Anselm?
26448No,replied the freebooter;"what meaning would there be in that?
26448Not dry? 26448 Not fly up at one, for instance?"
26448Now? 26448 Quit thy roving; Shalt by loving----""Shall I open his throat, that he may sing the next verse in heaven?"
26448Says not the legend so?
26448So you''re acting for your father''s good?
26448St-- st-- stood by, your ludship?
26448Then where in the name of good saints are you going to be?
26448Thou hast been to the bear- pit, then?
26448Through what do I buy my choice?
26448Well, well; what''s the matter now?
26448Well? 26448 Well?"
26448What are all the vintages of this earth by the side of a loving daughter?
26448What care I for your knavish and perverted foreign legalities over the sea?
26448What contract?
26448What could I do shut up in the crocodile, and she with a sword, of course?
26448What did Sir Godfrey do upon that?
26448What did he mean?
26448What did papa mean?
26448What do you want with me?
26448What hour is it?
26448What is this, Elaine?
26448What need have we of them, sir?
26448What next?
26448What shall we do?
26448What sort of noise?
26448What the Jeofailes does the varlet mean by threatening an Englishman in his own house? 26448 What''s all this?"
26448What, and be locked up, and perhaps murdered to- night, and never see your face again?
26448What?
26448Where''s your promise?
26448Where?
26448Who are coming?
26448Who are you?
26448Who are you?
26448Who knows if his brother sots are not behind him to wake the house? 26448 Who told her?"
26448Who told you that?
26448Who?
26448Whom shall we ask to the wedding?
26448Why will he stay behind? 26448 Why, what ails thee?"
26448Why, what''s the matter, dear?
26448Why, what''s the matter, papa?
26448Why, where can he be?
26448Why-- do you not find this a pleasant plan?
26448Will some person inquire of this polite young man,he said,"what he wishes with us?"
26448Will there be another Crusade along pretty soon?
26448Will you break your word so soon?
26448Will you hear the law for what I say? 26448 With the Dragon?
26448Wouldst thou have slain a girl?
26448You agree with me upon that point?
26448You''ll stay for the wedding?
26448A-- did you hear me say anything particular?"
26448Alone?
26448Am I not back all safe from the sea?
26448And a moustache?
26448And how can there be a dragon to burn if thou art to be Father Anselm?
26448And how, pray, shall I get out of that cage?"
26448And is n''t the wine-- Zounds, no, the wine isn''t-- at least, certainly it is-- to be sure it''s what it ought to be--_what_ it ought to be?
26448And were n''t those pretty dresses he has carried back with him for his little girl?
26448And where were the monks of Oyster- le- Main?
26448And why does he look at you so, and deeply flush to the very rim of his curly hair?
26448And why so?
26448Are we not coming to him soon?
26448But what can possibly be in that huge silver rundlet into which they plunge their goblets so often?
26448But where is the Dragon in his den?
26448Ca n''t you understand?"
26448Can we say the Dragon escaped?"
26448Coming, is he?
26448Could he kiss her one last good- by if disaster was in store for them after all?
26448Darest thou go alone?"
26448Did not the Baron say that Father Anselm was to be present at the burning?
26448Did she go to sleep?
26448Do n''t I remember how trespass was brought against Ralph de Coventry, over in Warwickshire?
26448Do n''t you remember what the legend said?
26448Do n''t you think they might have one, papa?
26448Do you not see we should both be lost, were you to try any such wild plan?"
26448Do you think you''re going to make him care more about a lot of sheep and cows than he does about his only daughter?
26448Do you want to hear at once, without waiting any longer, what little Whelpdale is telling Sir Godfrey?
26448Does n''t he pay the people for everything the Dragon eats up?
26448Happy?
26448Has n''t your old father been away from you two whole months?
26448Hey?
26448Hey?
26448Holy Ragbag, what''s the matter?
26448How came you here?"
26448How can you be sure he would go away, just because that odious, vulgar legend says so?
26448How d''ye do, John Stiles?
26448How dare you leave your bed at such an hour?"
26448Hubert thought secretly, not moving at all,"how could he have seen that?"
26448Hucbald in the Baron''s ear,"that a little something serious should be said on such an occasion?
26448I should like to know who I am?"
26448I should like to know who lives here?
26448If she scolded him( which she always did if Sir Godfrey had been scolding her), do you suppose he dared to answer back?
26448Is everybody in my house going stark mad?"
26448Is n''t there?"
26448Is thy belly a lime- kiln?
26448Might they find shelter for the night?
26448Now where the deuce is my family seal?"
26448Oh why are you taking your bath at such a time?"
26448Oh, how can I think of everything all at once?"
26448Oh, what''s that?"
26448Shall the neighbours be called to have a sight of the Dragon?"
26448Shall we dare it?
26448The lady or the Dragon?"
26448Then why did you jump?
26448There was a short silence, and then Sir Godfrey said,"Am I to understand this thing hangs on the event of another Crusade?"
26448Uncle Mortmain, how d''ye do?
26448Was her father going to turn the key in her door, after all?
26448Was she going to cry, after all?
26448Was this to be the end?
26448Well?"
26448What are you come here for?
26448What are you so red about?
26448What business have either of you to come here?"
26448What could a girl do alone against a dragon in the middle of the night?"
26448What d''ye call the stuff?"
26448What do you say to that, sir?"
26448What do you want?
26448What if she had paid this room a visit?
26448What in this world is there so lifts one into complacency as the doing of a bold and cool- headed thing?
26448What pleasure was it to send out invitations to his own wedding that might never be coming off?
26448What should Elaine, daughter of Sir Godfrey Disseisin, care for the carcase of Geoffrey, son of Bertram of Poictiers?"
26448What villain told you of this, child?
26448What waked you?"
26448What''s it?
26448What''s that thing, do you suppose?"
26448What?
26448What?
26448What?"
26448What?"
26448When I said this morning that I would give my daughter to the man who brought me the Dragon alive or dead, did I say I would give him the Dragon too?
26448Where are we coming to?"
26448Where were firmness and dignity now?
26448Where''s Elaine?
26448Where''s my boy Roland?
26448Where''s the Dragon?"
26448Who but foggy drudglings doze While Rob Gilpin toasts thy witches, While the Ghost waylays thy breeches, Ingoldsby?
26448Who knows?"
26448Who would pay him for you, when you were eaten up?"
26448Who would rely on a dragon?
26448Who?"
26448Why does everything seem to swim and grow misty as his eye meets yours?
26448Why had he come there at all?
26448Why will they run away?"
26448Why, what''s this?"
26448Yes, yes, this is Geoffrey my girl''s to marry and all that.--What do I care about Father Anselm?"
26448You do n''t object, I suppose?
26448You hesitate between my daughter and a miserable reptile?
26448[ Illustration: GEOFFREY GOETH TO MEET THE DRAGON] Was there a sound away off somewhere out- of- doors?
26448[ Illustration: THE DRAGON MAKETH HIS LAST APPEARANCE] What did Geoffrey see?
26448and how could you stop it?
26448how''s thy head?"
26448was there ever such a state of things?"
26448what''s the loss of a woman compared with death?"
26448which shall it be?
37193And how goes it with you?
37193And is this the measure of your stupidity?
37193And tell me,he continued,"is Skalunda mountain still standing?"
37193And what did you dream, my girl?
37193And what did you get for the third?
37193And what may your great grief be?
37193And where may the keys be?
37193And who can imagine any such thing? 37193 Are you not frightened?"
37193Are you really afraid?
37193Are you, are you my son- in- law?
37193But what did I get for it?
37193Did I not have you strung up yesterday as a thief and a vagabond?
37193Did I not order you to tear down that castle and hang its builder?
37193Do you see that castle there?
37193Do you see the castle over yonder?
37193Do you see the castle there, on the other side of the forest?
37193Do you see the castle yonder?
37193Do you want to murder me?
37193Does father think that I would allow myself to be hanged so easily? 37193 For heaven''s sake, what is the trouble here?"
37193Have you any other abusive words of the same sort?
37193How could it last?
37193How does it come to have feathers?
37193Is it nothing more serious than that?
37193Knös, is that you?
37193Knös, is that you?
37193Knös, is that you?
37193Of you? 37193 What does my master command?"
37193What does my master command?
37193What does my master command?
37193What does my master command?
37193What does my master command?
37193What does my master command?
37193What does my master command?
37193What grieves you so?
37193What has become of it?
37193What is it?
37193What is it?
37193What is the condition?
37193What is your request?
37193What kind of a place do you want?
37193What troubles you?
37193What was that?
37193Whence do you hail?
37193Who has dared to build such a castle on my ground?
37193Who is there?
37193Who may you be, that step beneath my lowly roof and greet me in so winning a way?
37193Why do you weep over such a trifle?
37193Why does it stick so tight?
37193Why, of course,said the duke,"who else am I supposed to be?"
37193Yes, that may well be so, but I died on Holy Innocents''Day,said Kalle Kula,"so at least I may look in and see the innocent children?"
37193After a while the giant said:"I wonder why your dog stays away so long?
37193After some time had passed, the duke one evening heard the words:"Is my master content now?"
37193And has the princess no better clothes or jewels?"
37193And if I do not get the keys again, how can I be happy?"
37193And just as before came the answer:"What does my master command?"
37193And the old man replied:"Good- day to you, and whither away?"
37193Are you awake?"
37193Are you dressed just as the princess is?
37193At that a little toad hopped out from under the stone, and said:"Lovely maiden, why do you sit here and weep?"
37193But how do you look?
37193But how goes it with you?"
37193But the old man said:"Did you not promise to obey my every command?
37193But the queen''s daughter was much annoyed and said:"Is it not enough for me to be running around here in the wilderness with you?
37193But the wolf stopped, wagged his tail, and said:"Proud maiden, why do you sit here and weep so bitterly?"
37193But the youth answered:"What is there you can give me that will compensate for my brother''s life?"
37193Do you see anything down below?"
37193Do you see anything down below?"
37193Do you see anything down below?"
37193Do you see anything down below?"
37193Do you see anything happening at the castle?"
37193Do you see anything out yonder?"
37193He gave them a friendly greeting:"Good- day, little fellows, whence do you come and whither do you go?"
37193He said:"Who has broken my mountain door?"
37193He went in and-- O the poor king!--what did he see?
37193How could it be possible?
37193How dared you take the fire from under my kettle and put it under your own?"
37193How should any of them come to any such conclusion?
37193Lillwacker answered:"Your advice is good; but how am I to know whether or not you are doing well out in the world?"
37193May I ask you for a drink of water?"
37193No sooner had he spoken these words than something answered, close to his ear:"What does my master command?"
37193Now she was much frightened; for what else could she think but that the lion would tear her to pieces?
37193One morning Starkad climbed the Klefberg in Tuna, and called over to Bale:"Bale in Balbo, are you awake?"
37193Or is there any one present who dare suppose such a thing?"
37193She went up to him and said:"My lord king, where have you been so long?
37193So she asked:"Is there some one here?"
37193Suppose there were a few moldy crusts of bread in it?
37193The king''s daughter answered:"Are you the troll who is coming to carry me away?"
37193The king''s daughter answered:"Are you the troll who is coming to carry me away?"
37193The king''s daughter was much surprised and said:"Who are you that dare to venture into the giant''s hall?
37193The little fellow answered:"And how can I let you out?
37193Then the eagle dipped the youth in the ocean up to his ankles and asked:"Are you afraid?"
37193Then the eagle flew on a while, and again dipped the youth into the water, up to his knees and said:"Are you afraid?"
37193Then the king''s daughter was much surprised and said:"Who are you that dare to venture into the giant''s hall?
37193Then the king''s daughter was much surprised and said:"Who are you that dare to venture into the giant''s hall?
37193Then the sea- queen said:"Did you do that?"
37193What do you think?"
37193What might there be in the chest?
37193When he saw the gate standing open he grew furiously angry and shouted till the whole mountain shook:"Who has broken my mountain door?"
37193When the girl came back to the church Torre Jeppe asked eagerly:"What did she say?"
37193When the lion finally reached the princess he stopped, wagged his tail, and asked:"Beautiful maiden, why do you sit here and weep so bitterly?"
37193When the troll saw Silverwhite sitting with the king''s daughter, he fell into a rage and cried:"What are you doing with my princess?"
37193When the troll saw Silverwhite, he grew angry and said:"Why do you sit there beside my princess?"
37193Why do you sit here so sad and lonely?"
37193Will you not discharge me?"
37193XXIII THE EVIL ONE AND KITTA GRAU One day the devil met Kitta Grau:"Where have you been, old man?"
37193cried Stompe Pilt,"are you still not angry enough for us to come to blows?"
37193he said,"but then what is a fellow of your sort to do with his stupidity, if he does not put it to some use?"
37193said he,"and why do you sit here so lonely and full of sorrow?"
37193said the wild man,"And why do you sit here so lonely and full of sorrow?"
37193said the wild man,"and why do you sit here so lonely and full of sorrow?"
5590And shall I never see my mother and Wendelin again?
5590Has he fallen? 5590 The prince watched him turn very red then very pale and finally said inquiringly"Well, my Peregrinus?"
5590What if this lake should be salt, like the Dead Sea in the Holy Land?
5590George, the squire, saw this, sighed deeply, and wondered:"Why was my father only a miller?
5590His mother was safe, but his wife, his beloved, his all?
5590Is he dead?"
5590Nonna, is he safe?
5590The knight was no antiquary, but as he looked about him his curiosity was excited:"What can have happened here?"
5590When George walked along dejectedly, she thought:"Is that my heedless boy?"
5590Why was n''t it finished, and why must he go on climbing again and again that frightful scaffolding?
5590Yet what else could it be?
45021And who the deuce is this Mac Thundel, That I,Sir Jack replied,"should bundle?"
45021Are ye the traitor loon,he cried,"By wham my twa bauld brithers died?
45021Do n''t you wish you may get it?
45021He was sorry that Jack was benighted,he said,"Might he fenture to peg he''d accept of a ped?"
45021How feel ye now,cried Jack,"old chap?
45021How slept you?
45021Jack,said the Giant,"yes, you may, And let them be a keepsake, pray; They''re queer, and would n''t suit a''gent;''But what to use is ornament?
45021Bounds not the hero''s heart if he is worthy of the name?
45021Could it a Jack- a- lantern be?
45021Cried the Giant,"Who''s_ me?_"Pitching his voice in a treble key.
45021Did you ever behold such a horrid old brawny?
45021For a tit- bit wilt thou broil me now, An''I let thee out again?"
45021Hears he not a step approaching, Though he may n''t the comer see?
45021Hears he not a whisper say,"So there you are, old rascal, eh?"
45021I say, what means this tarnel row?"
45021I wonder how we''re to purchase''grub?''"
45021Now night came on, and Arthur''s son Asked"Where the dickens are we to lodge?"
45021Oh, why starts the monster in terror and fright?
45021Said the Giant,"what news, cousin Jack, to- day?"
45021Sir Giant,"said Jack, with a bow,"Of breakfast art thou fain?
45021So he took him up As ye mote a pup, Or an impudent varlet about to"pop"him:"Wake up, ye young baste; What''s this round your waist?
45021That floundering splash, That thundering crash?
45021Thought Jack as he listened with mind perplexed;--"I wonder what he''s up to next?"
45021Through the King''s gate he took his way( He had come by sea to Hampton town, Where he called, just"How d''ye do?"
45021Upon a night as dark as pitch A light was dancing on the sea;-- Marked it the track of the Water Witch?
45021What was to be done?
45021When this mountain bugaboo Had filled his belly, what would he do?
45021Whither was the hero bound, Napping by the Ogre caught?
45021Why gapes and why stares he when Jack meets his sight?
45021Why mutters he wildly, o''ercome with dismay,"How long have ghosts taken to walking by day?"
45021[ Illustration: 054]{ 029} Then he cocked his big eye with a playful wink, And roared out,"What''ll you take to drink?"
45021an''t I a Giant whose heads are three, And ca n''t I lick five hundred men?
45021come back-- I wonder where he''s gone?"
45021he shouted,"who''s afraid?"
45021quoth the hero,"yes, but how?
45021where, my upper story, Wilt thou be to- morrow night?
45021{ 013} V. Still was Jack in slumber sunk; Was he Mesmerised or drunk?
45021{ 037} At length he came to a forest vast, Through which his journey led; When shrieks arose upon the blast,--"Hallo,"said Jack,"who''s dead?"
34410A little courtesy does oil the creaking machinery of life, does n''t it?
34410And did you never search for the gold, daddy?
34410And may I take the Urchin with me?
34410And now will you please tell me where the Urchin is?
34410And so I frightened you?
34410And then what''ll we do?
34410And what better?
34410And who is the Urchin?
34410And who is the old hawker, daddy,she asked,"and what has he to do with it all?"
34410Any defence?
34410Any defence?
34410Any further submission?
34410Are those the princesses?
34410Bless your heart,said the bird,"and who do you suppose We are?
34410But are you really going to Fairyland? 34410 But how shall I know the main path?"
34410But what did I say?
34410But you have found a good many things already, apart from treasure, have n''t you, little daughter?
34410But, daddy, it would be so extraordinary, would n''t it?
34410Ca n''t I?
34410Ca n''t you come back with me if I go daddy?
34410Can you go on, Urchin?
34410Can you tell me how to begin then, daddy?
34410Could I see what you could not see?
34410Daddy,said Fiona,"did one of the Armada ships really go ashore here?"
34410Daddy,she said,"what does it all mean?
34410Daddy,she said,"you ca n''t know if that''s true or not, can you?"
34410Did we not hear talk of a treasure?
34410Do n''t philosophers get cross?
34410Do n''t you see that there are some things you_ ca n''t_ do, whatever anybody says? 34410 Do you know where he is?"
34410Do you think you will go back?
34410Do you want to come, Fiona?
34410Does Miss Fiona see the bird?
34410Fine, is n''t it?
34410Fiona,said the boy,"do you really think it''s cricket?"
34410Had far to come?
34410Have n''t you a memory?
34410Have you a hedgehog?
34410Have you anything to urge against it?
34410Have you come for your treasure, Fiona?
34410Have you found out what my treasure is, daddy?
34410Have you found out yet how to start?
34410Have you seen my spectacles?
34410How can I do anything else? 34410 How can I find the Urchin, then, please?"
34410How come you to be doorkeeper?
34410How did you come here? 34410 How is it then that I have seen you?"
34410How many buttons do you want?
34410How shall I know where to begin?
34410How would I know when you do not know?
34410I suppose you know lots of people with perfect memories; but you never knew one with a perfect forgetfulness, eh? 34410 Is it about my treasure?"
34410Is n''t it all beautiful? 34410 Is n''t that lucky, now?"
34410Is that all?
34410Is there another way?
34410It was to begin itself, was n''t it? 34410 Now, do n''t you see, Fiona?
34410O daddy,said the girl,"did he really?
34410O, do n''t you understand?
34410Oh, I say,he said,"why did n''t you say before, instead of employing these people and frightening an honest bird out of his senses?"
34410Oh, do you think you could?
34410Please, may we start?
34410Shall I catch him for Miss Fiona?
34410Then am I not to find anything at the end of it?
34410Then you knew yesterday, daddy?
34410Then you''ve never heard of Hegel and the unity of opposites? 34410 Things like that do n''t_ really_ happen, do they?
34410Urchin, are you afraid of ghosts?
34410Urchin,said Fiona,"when you and I have a row, what happens?"
34410Well?
34410What are we going to do?
34410What do you think, daddy?
34410What for?
34410What good do you and your inscriptions do, anyway?
34410What is it?
34410What is n''t cricket?
34410What sort of things?
34410What were they, then?
34410Where did he go?
34410Where do they try the prisoners?
34410Whereever were you educated? 34410 Who are you, you beautiful girl?"
34410Who''s they?
34410Whose would they be?
34410Why are there two?
34410Why did n''t Apollo find you?
34410Why do you want to bring him back?
34410Why, Artemis, Apollo, what''s the matter?
34410Why, daddy, have you been in Fairyland too?
34410Will Miss Fiona give me leave to try my own dog?
34410Will Miss Fiona take the bird now?
34410Will what run?
34410Will you die?
34410Will you make them fall down dead?
34410You know of course where he is?
34410You will stay and have some dinner, will you not?
34410You''ll interpret, wo n''t you?
34410Your tail? 34410 ? 34410 And if so could it be done in time? 34410 And now what are we to do for you?
34410And now what do you want, my dear?"
34410And now what is it you want with me?"
34410And then he will become a man, and what use is that?
34410And what happened?"
34410And when she had ended, he said,"So you never found your own treasure after all, Fiona?"
34410And why have you told me nothing?"
34410Any influence that boy?"
34410Are the prisoners provided with counsel?"
34410Are you going through with it, Fiona?"
34410But Jeconiah?
34410But do you know the danger?
34410But do you know what you have done to- day?
34410But why a hedgehog?"
34410By the way, who are you?"
34410CHAPTER VIII FIONA FINDS HER TREASURE And Fiona?
34410Ca n''t you see?"
34410Ca n''t you think where it could be, Fiona?
34410Can you guess why?"
34410Could it be done at all?
34410Did he not swim out to your boat?"
34410Did the Urchin fling himself on the grass at Fiona''s feet and thank her in broken accents for all she had done for him?
34410Do any of these please you?
34410Do you believe it?"
34410Do you think kings want to remember_ everything_?"
34410Dual personality?
34410Ever studied philosophy?"
34410Fiona, is this a dinner night?"
34410Had a shock, you tell me?
34410Have you an invitation?"
34410Have you been told about the wish?"
34410Have you come for your treasure, Fiona?"
34410Her answer was"Have you seen the Urchin?
34410How did you escape?"
34410How did you make them do that?
34410How long?
34410How many buttons do you want?"
34410How many grains of sand make a heap?"
34410How old do you think I am?"
34410I am old- fashioned; why should I take my neighbor by the throat and say,''Let me do good to you, or it shall be the worse for you and yours''?
34410I see that you are kind; can you help us?"
34410I suppose you came here to sell things?
34410I suppose you know where the door is?"
34410Is it true then?"
34410Is your dog a conjurer?"
34410It will all fade away again; but before it fades, will you kiss me?"
34410Kind of change in personality?
34410No one has ever crossed the South Arabian desert or explored the snow ranges of New Guinea, have they?
34410Oh, ca n''t you see?"
34410Or did the black terrier really wink?
34410She looked up at the King''s face, and read there, was it disappointment?
34410Tell me, why have you told me all this when I began by being rude?"
34410The water was quite shallow at the edge, and he was a good swimmer, was he not?
34410Then she said:"Will you please tell me where the Urchin can find his treasure?"
34410Urchin, would you like a deed?"
34410Was it a flicker of sunlight?
34410Was not what she saw, so dim through the mist, the figures of the shepherd who had helped her on Glenollisdal and his black collie?
34410Was this the prosperous financier, this wretched apology for a living being which the officer held out on the palm of his hand?
34410Well, a treasure- hunt and a boy- hunt are only different aspects of a hunt, are n''t they?
34410Well, for all anyone can say to the contrary, people may be carried off by fairies every day of the week in New Guinea or South Arabia, may n''t they?
34410What did that old man tell you?
34410What is it you have come to ask me?"
34410What is it you know?
34410What is it you want?"
34410What''s he done?"
34410When a stream is merely so many units of waterpower, how can a Naiad dwell there?
34410When a tree has become so many cubic feet of timber, how can it shelter a Dryad?
34410Where did you learn to do it?"
34410Which of us is the better off?"
34410Whoever heard of it?"
34410Why are you going?"
34410Why could n''t he have been beaten somewhere else?
34410Will he thank you for bringing him back?
34410Will it run to some tobacco?"
34410Will it run to some tobacco?"
34410Will you please put me down if you want to talk to me?
34410Will you take him?"
34410You are so beautiful; have n''t you any heart?"
34410You never saw a woodcock Our size before, did you?"
34410Your father has told you that?"
34410_ Were_ they the King and the Chancellor?
34410and why are you so strange and unconcerned?
34410was it regret?
1597''Do n''t you remember?
1597''” “ But Kay-- little Kay, ” said Gerda, “ when did he come?
1597''” “ Is it Kay that you mean? ” asked little Gerda.
1597''” “ Wo n''t there be a tap soon? ” asked the little boy.
1597A long time passed, and people said to each other--“I wonder if there is a church out in the wood?
1597Am I a simpleton, or am I unfit to be an Emperor?
1597Am I to do nothing whatever? ” for he was one of the company, and had done what he had to do.
1597And what did it say?
1597And where have I been? ” He looked round him.
1597And who has helped you? ” “ OUR LORD has helped me, ” said she.
1597And who lived there?
1597And why, I should like to know, are the police never to be wrong?
1597Art thou going? ” and then he nodded to the shadow, and the shadow nodded again.
1597But I will take good care to enjoy myself when I am brought out again. ” But when was that to be?
1597But have you not thought of it?
1597But how does the sea look in reality?
1597But now he has forgotten you for the Princess. ” “ Does he live with a Princess? ” asked Gerda.
1597But what is it, and where is it to be found?
1597But where were the hackney- coaches?
1597Ca n''t you tell any larder stories? ” “ No, ” said the Tree.
1597Can a dog, or a horse laugh?
1597Can it be, that I am unfit for my office?
1597Can the heart''s flame die in the flame of the funeral pile? ” “ I do n''t understand that at all, ” said little Gerda.
1597Coo! ” “ What is that you say up there? ” cried little Gerda.
1597Did all the gods of the olden times pass through the large saloons?
1597Did the old heroes combat there?
1597Do I instead of mounting only sink?
1597Do n''t you know one about bacon and tallow candles?
1597Do n''t you know where he is? ” she asked of the roses.
1597Do n''t you see how great it is?
1597Do n''t you see how men and animals are forced to serve her; how well she gets through the world barefooted?
1597Do n''t you see the farm- house yonder?
1597Do the dancing maidens sleep, or are they dead?
1597Do you know anything about it? ” “ She is no doubt gone to Lapland; for there is always snow and ice there.
1597Do you not know your old shadow?
1597Do you not see that person who always goes with me?
1597Do you think he gets mild eyes, or a Christmas tree?
1597Does she not show us-- she the queen in the land of enchantment-- her astounding dramatic talent in all our dreams?
1597Has he not been creeping up that stalk these three days?
1597Have I then found you at last? ” But he sat quite still, benumbed and cold.
1597Have I written the tragedy?
1597Have you never been there?
1597I am in the most brilliant circumstances, but there came a sort of desire over me to see you once more before you die; you will die, I suppose?
1597I can not come in, for I am forced to dance! ” And the executioner said, “ Thou dost not know who I am, I fancy?
1597I have been in the antechamber at the court of Poesy. ” “ But WHAT DID you see?
1597I know you have got another shadow again; have I anything to pay to it or you?
1597I shall make a tour this summer; will you go with me?
1597If so, you will oblige me by saying what it is. ” “ Nay, is it really thou? ” said the learned man.
1597In spring, when the swallows and the storks came, the Tree asked them, “ Do n''t you know where they have been taken?
1597Let me see if you have my flower still? ” And the old man opened his Prayer- Book.
1597May I not ask your name? ” “ That I shall not tell you! ” said the garter.
1597Nay, how lonely the old man is-- do you think that he gets kisses?
1597Of the Flower- Garden At the Old Woman''s Who Understood Witchcraft But what became of little Gerda when Kay did not return?
1597Oh, wo n''t you take me to the palace? ” “ That is very easily said, ” answered the Raven.
1597Shall I purchase my freedom from service?
1597So she stood still, looked at the long yellow flower, and asked, “ You perhaps know something? ” and she bent down to the Narcissus.
1597Something better, something still grander must follow-- but what?
1597There is more done for us than for all other creatures, sure enough; but can you not see that we are folks of quality in the world?
1597There was such a bawling and screaming-- the Fir Tree alone was silent, and he thought to himself, “ Am I not to bawl with the rest?
1597Was he among the number? ” “ Patience, patience; we are just come to him.
1597Was it that which people had heard?
1597Was it there as in a holy church?
1597Was n''t this a lady of real delicacy?
1597Well, what did the Tiger- Lily say?
1597Were the saloons like the starlit firmament when we stand on the high mountains? ” “ Everything was there! ” said the shadow.
1597What became of him?
1597What became of them?
1597What did the Convolvulus say?
1597What did the Snowdrops say?
1597What has taken possession of the Bishop? ” sighed the Councillor, shaking his head.
1597What is it like? ” “ That would take a long time to explain, ” said the Stork, and with these words off he went.
1597What shall I hear now, I wonder? ” And he leaned against the wall lost in reverie.
1597What song could the Ranunculus sing?
1597What was to happen?
1597When she left home she had slippers on, it is true; but what was the good of that?
1597Where could he be?
1597Where did I get all this rubbish?
1597Where did they go to?
1597Where have you been so long?
1597Where shall I find my little child? ” “ Nay, I know not, ” said the woman, “ and you can not see!
1597Where shall we get a wife for him?
1597Where the deuce can the house be?
1597Where was the actual entrance?
1597Whither are they taken? ” “ We know!
1597Will you be my shadow?
1597Will you go with me, as shadow?
1597Wonderful, very wonderful!--And this-- what have I here?
1597Yes, and whither?
1597Yes; then something better, something still grander, will surely follow, or wherefore should they thus ornament me?
1597You shall have my white hair instead, and that''s always something! ” “ Do you demand nothing else? ” said she.
1597Your reading in the ancients is, sine dubio, of vast extent? ” “ Oh yes, I''ve read something, to be sure, ” replied the Councillor.
1597is little Kay really dead?
1597it was thy child''s fate thou saw''st-- thy own child''s future life! ” Then the mother screamed with terror, “ Which of them was my child?
1597thy silence teaches nought, Thou leadest only to the near grave''s brink; Is broken now the ladder of my thoughts?
1597what was that?
1597will you give this to the old man over the way from me?
1597“ Am I to hear a fairy tale? ” asked the little boy.
1597“ And did Kay get the Princess? ” “ Were I not a Raven, I should have taken the Princess myself, although I am promised.
1597“ And then?
1597“ Are there no roses here? ” and she ran about amongst the flowerbeds, and looked, and looked, but there was not one to be found.
1597“ Are you still cold? ” asked she; and then she kissed his forehead.
1597“ But for that, it would be delightful here, old Fir, would n''t it? ” “ I am by no means old, ” said the Fir Tree.
1597“ But how are we to manage it?
1597“ But how did the child get his feet wet? ” “ That is the very thing that nobody can make out, ” said his mother.
1597“ But the Raven? ” asked little Gerda.
1597“ But what''s this? ” He turned round anew, firmly convinced that he was seriously ill.
1597“ Can I have employment at the palace? ” “ Why, yes, ” said the Emperor.
1597“ Can the Snow Queen come in? ” said the little girl.
1597“ DAME TIGBRITH, tragedy in five acts. ” “ What is that?
1597“ Do n''t you know me?
1597“ Do the white bees choose a queen? ” asked the little boy; for he knew that the honey- bees always have one.
1597“ Do you choose to be quiet? ” said the robber maiden.
1597“ Do you hear the cock crow, Tukey?
1597“ Do you intend to keep your knife while you sleep? ” asked Gerda; looking at it rather fearfully.
1597“ Do you know only one story? ” asked the Rats.
1597“ Do you know who lived in our opposite neighbor''s house? ” said the shadow.
1597“ Do you not think that I shall save him? ” said she.
1597“ Do you think he is dead and gone? ” “ Dead he certainly is not, ” said the Roses.
1597“ Does your honor want to cross the ferry to the Holme? ” asked they.
1597“ For I saw everything, and I know everything! ” “ How did it look in the furthest saloon? ” asked the learned man.
1597“ Has anything happened?
1597“ Has she a house? ” “ She has a palace! ” said the ant.
1597“ Hast thou not seen Death go past with my little child? ” said the mother.
1597“ Have I lain here in the street and dreamed?
1597“ Have you never thought of being betrothed? ” “ Yes, of course!
1597“ He is a wise man, ” said she to herself--“It is well; and he dances delightfully-- that is also good; but has he solid knowledge?
1597“ Hearest thou not the drum?
1597“ How couldst thou come quicker than I? ” “ I am a mother, ” said she.
1597“ How did I get up here-- and so buried in sleep, too?
1597“ How goes it? ” said the shadow.
1597“ How hast thou been able to find thy way hither? ” he asked.
1597“ How have you been able to find the way hither?
1597“ How is this? ” said the Emperor to himself.
1597“ Is it possible that I am a simpleton?
1597“ Is it true that you have taken my little playfellow?
1597“ Is not the work absolutely magnificent? ” said the two officers of the crown, already mentioned.
1597“ Is this the Daily News of this evening? ” he asked mechanically, as he saw the Hostess push aside a large sheet of paper.
1597“ Pray how did you come into possession of this rare print?
1597“ Shall we thrash him?
1597“ Shall we thrash him? ” said they.
1597“ Tell me if you still sing on Sundays?
1597“ There is the lieutenant, now, who might go quietly to bed if he chose, where no doubt he could stretch himself at his ease; but does he do it?
1597“ They are not taller than I; there was one indeed that was considerably shorter; and why do they retain all their branches?
1597“ Was it there as in the fresh woods?
1597“ What am I to do here?
1597“ What are they about? ” thought the Tree.
1597“ What are you crying for? ” asked he.
1597“ What are you muttering? ” asked the Princess.
1597“ What can be the meaning of this? ” thought the old man, opening his eyes very wide.
1597“ What debt is there to talk about?
1597“ What is that? ” said he, as he came out into the sunshine.
1597“ What is the meaning of all this? ” “ Something common, is it not, ” said the shadow.
1597“ What of? ” asked the neighbor''s wife.
1597“ What will you take for the kitchen- pot? ” said the lady.
1597“ What''s that woman''s name? ” asked the little boy.
1597“ What''s the hour, watchman? ” asked a passer- by.
1597“ What''s the meaning of this? ” thought the Tree.
1597“ What''s your name? ” “ My name is Cupid, ” answered the boy.
1597“ Where are they going to? ” asked the Fir.
1597“ Where did the Snow Queen go to?
1597“ Where do you live? ” asked the collar.
1597“ Where shall I find Death, who took away my little child? ” said she.
1597“ Which of them is Misfortune''s flower and which is that of Happiness? ” asked she.
1597“ Who is Humpy- Dumpy? ” asked the Mice.
1597“ Who should know better than I? ” said the animal; and his eyes rolled in his head.
1597“ Whom have I the honor of speaking? ” asked the learned man.
1597“ You can not answer these questions? ” said the princess.
1597“''Is he not yet come?
1597“''Yes, ca n''t you remember when we were very little,''said the old seaman,''and ran and played about?
35458Ah, Little Sweep,said he,"now who would think that fine new raiment and a face all clean and shining would make this wondrous change in you?
35458Ah,replied the Little Tree softly,"you would not wish to dwell forever in this forest, would you?
35458And did he reach the top of this steep slope?
35458And does my dancing please you, little one?
35458And found he what he sought?
35458And is it not as I said?
35458And now what treasure do you bring to win my hand, brave prince?
35458And what have I to do with gray wedding frocks, I should like to know?
35458And what of that?
35458And what powerful weapon or armed force do you bring against me that I should thus do your bidding, O Yvonne, Beggar Princess?
35458And who is there to care?
35458Are they not a blessing, Mother?
35458But Prince Godfrey; what of him?
35458But you''ll wait until you catch us before you punish us, wo n''t you, Antone?
35458But, Spirit, will you not come with us to the Westland Kingdom?
35458But, my lord, how can I believe you?
35458Come now, good dame, what do you say?
35458Dearest Goose Girl, wilt be mine?
35458Did I not hear you wish a moment since to fight beneath the banners of the Empress Yelva? 35458 Do you not know me, little Beppo?"
35458Do you not know that my husband makes slaves of all men? 35458 Do you not remember the Little Tree that could neither speak nor sing?
35458Do you remember this, then, little one?
35458Do you remember?
35458Even should I accomplish the second task, when it is done will you not set for me another and another, and so on until the end of time?
35458For I am such a little tree, how can the Stars hear me?
35458For yesterday I caught a golden smile from one who flung a copper; and who knows? 35458 Have you forgot that this is our wedding day?
35458Have you not heard of famous Punchinello of the circus?
35458Have you not heard the news?
35458Have you so soon forgot your wish?
35458How comes it that your pocket is so very dusty?
35458How comes this light of day to other lands? 35458 How dare you to come into my presence?
35458How so, my little friend?
35458How then shall we deny him for our daughter''s husband? 35458 How would the boys and girls ever skate if I did not blow in winter time?
35458If you be famous Punchinello of the circus,they would say,"why sing you then for coppers like a beggar, and where is the circus?
35458Is it thus you leave your work at midday? 35458 Is not my garret window just across from yours, and do I not throw you bread and buns each day?"
35458My daughter, Yvonne,said he, after she had refused five princes in as many days,"how do you know whom you love or whom you love not?
35458Now would you mind, my dear, if I should eat all the blackberry pie myself?
35458Now, Maiden Matanuska, what grave sorrow can this be?
35458Oh, Night Wind, do you tell me true?
35458Oh, tell me, ye wild Gulls, of the wild skies,she asked,"do you know aught of my brave Prince Kenai?
35458Oh, what shall I do? 35458 Tell me, Little Sweep,"cried the second little creature angrily,"have you seen my brother flying north or east or south or west?"
35458That makes no difference now,replied the haughty princess with spirit;"why did you beat me at all?"
35458Then King Ironheart is no more?
35458Then would you come to- night when it is dark and dance for me?
35458They do not seem to be wicked witches, do they, Antone?
35458Well, I speak to you now,replied Pumpkin,"and as for your vegetable patch, we''ll all make that up to you, wo n''t we, boys?"
35458What brings you hither, Sweep?
35458What have you there, O Peasant?
35458What manner of pen is this?
35458What say you, my loved one?
35458What shall we do without you to help us with our trials? 35458 What then were the apples-- silver, perhaps?"
35458Where are you off?
35458Where is thy husband now, and why do you weep?
35458Wherever did you get such a notion? 35458 Who can tell?"
35458Who ever before heard of a princess without gold?
35458Who is it that knows my secret thoughts thus?
35458Who is it that speaks to me thus gently?
35458Why come you here, O Peasant?
35458Why did you run away? 35458 Why will you not let the quill write a letter to me,--if only to see what will happen?"
35458Why, pray, do not your apples turn to gold?
35458Will the Princess Cendre be pleased to dine?
35458Will we wear goblin dresses or ghost dresses, Antone?
35458Will you kindly have patience for a little until I try my skill?
35458Wilt be our king, Prince Kenai?
35458With your black face, do you suppose that I would marry you? 35458 Would you, indeed?"
35458Yes, I have heard that you grant wishes to poor folk sometimes,replied Little Sweep;"is that true?"
35458You are Father Minette''s cabbages, are you not?
35458( Now could it have been that the Red Caps whispered of the magic change the well of her own tears had caused?)
35458( Perhaps they had eaten too much blackberry pie and ginger cake; what do you think about it?)
35458And what did you say to thank the Little Brown Man?"
35458Besides, how could I know you got tired of being in a bed?
35458But now, Little Tree, it grows late; will you not sing for me?"
35458But tell me, how is it that you thus appear before me now?"
35458But this the Fallen Tree could not believe, and so he answered sharply:"Now, Little Tree, how can that be?
35458Can you think what troubled her?
35458Could we not make him a mortal, so that he may meet her again in the world?"
35458Do I not expect a harvest of golden apples from it some day?
35458Do you not know I can not abide old age or ugliness?
35458Do you not know that I prize the Apple Tree above all else on earth?
35458Do you remember me?"
35458Do you think that you are nimble enough to try?"
35458For am I not the least of little trees?"
35458For if young and tender blossoms yielded bright new shining pennies, did it not follow that the ripened fruit would be of purest gold?
35458Freyo made his way to the Apple Tree, and she continued:"Do you see my two stoutest branches quite close to the ground?
35458He darted from the crowd and cried,"Oh, little Beppo, dost remember me?
35458He had not dreamed the lovely Empress Yelva would so much as deign to thank him; had not the haughty Princess Cendre scorned him?
35458How then should I we d you?
35458How will you make chests and clock- cases?"
35458I am sure I heard my own voice singing; but how could it be that noble lords and ladies within that palace hall would listen to me?
35458I suppose you took the bread out of the oven in time-- did you?"
35458If I fail, I fail, but what is my life to me unless you be set free, Godfrey?"
35458If she failed, Prince Godfrey would remain forever in his dungeon, and yet from one handful of corn how should she reap a harvest for a nation?
35458If young and tender blossoms yield bright, new shining pennies, does it not follow that the ripened fruit should be of purest gold?"
35458In my land so poor that even crows forsake it?"
35458Is n''t that true, boys?"
35458It is nothing to me; but what of Antone and Babette?
35458Mother has no time to make us goblin dresses, and if she did, she has no goods; besides, how should we find our way home through the forest?"
35458Now is that not a pleasant dream for one who can not even walk?"
35458Now tell me this: Is it your wish to walk always with a crutch?
35458Now tell me, has your pain been less to- day?"
35458Now wilt thou dance for me, dear Punchinello?"
35458Now, was that not a strange thing-- and he gone these many hours?"
35458Of noble lords and ladies and their ways I know nothing, for do they not shut me from their homes and hearths when I would enter and warm myself?
35458Shall I lead you thither, Godfrey, or will you journey to the Westland Kingdom alone?"
35458She knew that she had dwelled always in the forest, and how could she know the music of noble lords and ladies?
35458Then she added,"Did you feed my bird and give him water?"
35458Think you that my skill is fair or that my pictures would please aught beside myself, who carved them?"
35458What do you say to this plan?"
35458What does it matter that your singing voice came after all the other trees had grown too tall to hear you, or that you are such a very little tree?
35458What more than that could Punchinello ask?
35458What of him?"
35458What powerful weapon have you to use against this wicked Ironheart?"
35458What shall I do?"
35458What shall I do?"
35458What think you of it?"
35458When winter comes what will you do for shelter?
35458Where have you been to gather such wealth?"
35458Where have you been to learn of this nonsense that you call love?"
35458Who has taught you all your wisdom, and have you not been lonely all these years?"
35458Who is he?"
35458Who is to take them home?"
35458Who, save thee, would care to march and fight beside a black- faced sweep?"
35458Whom shall we choose?"
35458Why did you cut as much as a twig from the Apple Tree?"
35458Will you not sup with us?"
35458Will you promise?"
35458asked poor Punchinello, and showed the bluebird locket,"the only treasure you did own, and which you gave to me?"
35458asked the old woman scornfully,"and drink water and eat bread without butter all the rest of your life, I suppose?
35458cried he,"what can I do to serve you?"
35458cried the Little Brown Man in dismay,"how am I changed thus?
35458cried the Traveler,"did I not say the blazing logs helped one to see one''s blessings, and was I not right?"
35458is it indeed, Dame Grumble?"
35458laughed the North Wind,"who has thus cleverly covered the Apple Tree?"
35458said Queen Grumpy,"have you forgotten that we are no longer royal folk but simple cottagers instead?"
35458sighed these discouraged folk of Yelvaland,"of what avail against the savage troops will be this ragged rabble that approaches?"
41921A pot of gold?
41921Are they worth the price of a rose?
41921Are you a wizard, that you change a child''s tears into laughter, and turn an old half- witted woman back to a young girl? 41921 Are you weary of being a Queen?"
41921But what is this?
41921But where_ is_ our dream?
41921Did I not leave my treasure in exchange?
41921Do you really understand how great a hardship it is?
41921Do you remember what we said last night when we found the gold piece?
41921Do you wonder that I am out of temper? 41921 How many times?"
41921Share it with you?
41921Well, little one,he said, when the wheel stopped whirling,"did you like what I made out of that sad little tear?"
41921What can it all mean?
41921What do you see in the mirror,said the old man,"that you gaze so earnestly in it?"
41921What is it?
41921What shall we do?
41921What use are these to us now, without our dream?
41921Where can it have gone?
41921Where did you gather your water- lilies, child?
41921Who and what are you?
41921Who ever heard of such luck?
41921Who knows?
41921Why, what is this?
41921Will you share it with me?
41921Would you be so lonely then?
41921A little sleep-- it matters not how deep; A little falling feather from Thy wing: Merciful Lord-- is it so great a thing?
41921After all, what were worldly possessions compared with this natural boon of which he was about to rob the sleeping man?
41921Am I not rich?
41921And was he about to subject a fellow human being to the torture which he had endured to the verge of madness?
41921And what more dream do you want than gold and precious stones?"
41921But how could he cash a daisy or negotiate a lark?
41921But when he looked into the mirror, expecting to see his own ancient face-- what did he see?
41921Could he, a poet, exchange this celestial windfall for a meal and a new doublet?
41921Do you think that you are the only dream in the world?
41921Ferdinand is dead-- can you imagine anything more unreasonable of him?
41921Have you heard her play Your soul away On a harp with moonbeam strings?
41921In short, will you consent to be Archbishop of Bohemia?"
41921Need one say that the usurper least of all understood?
41921Of what use is a dream to any one?
41921Only, where was that rose for the bosom of his sweetheart-- where was it growing?
41921Or was it the long- threatened invasion of the King of France?
41921THE PINE LADY O have you seen the Pine Lady, Or heard her how she sings?
41921The circus proprietor looked at him a long time in contemptuous silence, and then, with an ugly sneer, said:"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
41921Was she weary of being a Queen?
41921Was there a sorrow in the world that no money could buy?
41921What other dream could I have but you?"
41921What-- what am I to do?"
41921Where and how was it to be bought?
41921Where can it be?"
41921Where on earth-- he was wondering-- was there another man who would be so put out at being made a king?
41921Will you look into it?"
41921Would all his castles be a fair exchange for that?
41921Would you seem so lonely then?
41921Yet his heart was filled with a high happiness, for, the vision once his, would it not be his again?
41921as it appears that I must consent to be Head of the World Temporal-- will you consent to be the Head of the World Spiritual?
37532Am not I the most beautiful woman in the world?
37532And how am I to get these iron shoon?
37532And how could that come about?
37532And how couldst thou find it in thy heart to leave the bairns and me alone?
37532And how long must I serve thee ere thou makest them for me?
37532And what is that?
37532And what is that?
37532And what was that?
37532And where mayest thou be going so early on this cold winter''s day?
37532And where mayest thou be going so early on this cold winter''s day?
37532And where mayest thou be going to, this cold winter''s day?
37532And who dost thou say is the most beautiful woman now?
37532And who is to know that thou hast a sheep''s head?
37532And who wants to make a pretty wench like thee into a nun? 37532 And who wants to make a pretty wench like thee into a nun?"
37532And who wilt thou give him for a bride?
37532And why are ye greeting, my bonnie maid?
37532Art thou mad, woman,she cried contemptuously,"that thou proposest such a thing?
37532Art thou not well- nigh frozen sitting there? 37532 Art thou ready to swear to it?"
37532Art thou sure of that, your Majesty?
37532But how am I to get there? 37532 But how shall I know what is happening to thee?"
37532But needst thou go?
37532But where is it? 37532 By the name of Thor, who would have looked to find gold here?"
37532Can ye tell me aught of my friends, or where my father''s cottage is?
37532Canst thou not send an excuse?
37532Couldst thou fashion me a pair, good man? 37532 Didst thou ever see this before?"
37532Do ye think that there will be any chance of meeting the Brownie?
37532Dost know anything of my friends, or where my father''s cottage is gone to?
37532Dost thou know aught of sickness?
37532Dost thou not hear me?
37532Doth ever thy hawk peck any?
37532Doth thy horse ever kick any?
37532Doth thy hound ever bite any?
37532For whom hast thou purchased that?
37532For,said she to herself,"though my feet are so little that they might go into the slipper, what would I do as the wife of a great Prince?
37532For,thought she,"what suitor will heed my daughter as long as her step- sister is by her side?"
37532Good morning, Robin Redbreast; and where mayest thou be going so early on this cold winter''s day?
37532Hast thou another sister, Madam?
37532Hast thou any work for me to do?
37532How should I ken?
37532In a''the world, what kind o''man are ye?
37532Is he in any way connected with the Black Bull of Norroway?
37532Is it possible that your father is alive?
37532Is she dead, or is she only sleeping?
37532Is there aught that I can do to help thee?
37532Is there no grown man who would fight that Monster, and kill him, and save the lassies alive? 37532 Is there no other way,"they cried,"no other way than this, to save the land?"
37532Is there nothing that I can do to bring a smile to thy face?
37532Master,he said,"we would fain ken who the sweet singer is who singeth through the night in thy chamber?"
37532Oh, dear Lady mine,pleaded the Goodwife,"if thou wilt not have the pig, wilt thou not spare my poor bairn and take me myself?"
37532Oh, what shall I do, what shall I do?
37532Oh, what shall I do, what shall I do?
37532Poussie, Poussie Baudrons, What did ye do wi''t?
37532Poussie, Poussie Baudrons, What got ye there?
37532Troutie, troutie,she whispered, leaning over the edge of the well,"am not I the most beautiful woman in the world?"
37532Troutie, troutie,she whispered,"am not I the most beautiful woman in the world?"
37532Well, how did they name the bairn?
37532Well,said the old Dame,"I do not like to see pretty girls weep; what if I were able to help thee, and spin the lint for thee?"
37532What bringeth thee here, Sir Earl?
37532What can I do to show you how thankful I am?
37532What hath befallen thee?
37532What is this that the birdie says?
37532What makes thee think that I have ceased to love thee?
37532What makes your eyes so big? 37532 What noise is that at the door?"
37532What shall I do? 37532 What should Curly- Locks''foot be doing in the soup?
37532What took ye to siccan a land as that?
37532What''s that fizzling?
37532What''s that, Tibby?
37532What''s that?
37532Whatever could this funny old woman mean by bringing a pretty child like thee to look at them? 37532 Where are the seals that you spoke of?"
37532Where hast thou been these long, long years?
37532Where''s Curly- Locks?
37532Who art thou, and from whence hast thou come?
37532Who is the most beautiful woman, then?
37532Who is the most beautiful woman, then?
37532Who knows how far the little beastie has travelled? 37532 Who said that I was afraid?"
37532Why didst thou not essay it then?
37532Why lift ye out the sword,he said softly,"when thy fighting days are done?
37532And the third,"Whether men or beasts were created first?"
37532And what have ye done to your feet?
37532And why?
37532But who was to go?
37532Dost thou think that I can see my only bairn devoured by a Monster, and not lift a finger to try and save her when no other man will?
37532Have they sent a cart for me?"
37532He stopped his horse, and said good- naturedly,"Good day, Madam; and may I ask why you sing such a strange song?"
37532I wonder where it came from?"
37532So what do you think the wicked woman did?
37532The first of these three questions was,"Whether Ireland or Scotland was first inhabited?"
37532The mantle white I washed for thee, And wilt thou no waken, and turn to me?"
37532The second,"How old was the world when Adam was made?"
37532What shall I do?"
37532What was she to do now?
37532Who in all the world would care to take a plain- looking, red- eyed, dowdy wife like thee with them?"
37532[ Illustration] POUSSIE BAUDRONS"Poussie, Poussie Baudrons, Where hae ye been?"
37532cried Earl St. Clair eagerly,"ere he taketh on him the Elfin shape?
37532he exclaimed, with a look of sorrow on his wrinkled face,"hast thou come, as thy companion came, to pay thy toll of years to the Elfin King?
17034Ah, gaffer,said the fellow,"can you run to market alone?
17034All right,said the girl; for, thought she,"what harm can a frog do me?"
17034And how much do_ you_ love me, my dearest?
17034And what good will that be to us?
17034And what hast thou for dowry in bag and bottle?
17034And what hast thou for dowry, fair damsel,said he,"in thy bag and bottle?"
17034And what news with my poor cousin Jack?
17034And what''s your name, young sir?
17034And where may you be going?
17034And who is Caporushes?
17034Art come, young man, to join us in this dreadful prison?
17034As much money as would buy a stick to beat you with?
17034Brothers, what shall we weird for this damsel who has been so gracious unto us? 17034 But what about the furniture?"
17034Buy sheep?
17034Could we?
17034Could you do that?
17034Did n''t you milk me and make me comfortable? 17034 Did she sleep well?
17034Did she?
17034Do you,says little piggy,"and where may that be?"
17034Does she live a very long way off?
17034Every whit of it?
17034Fair maid,he said,"who art thou, and whither goest thou through the forest thus alone?"
17034Father,said Jack, ever courteous,"can you lodge a benighted traveller?"
17034Good morrow, fair damsel,he said;"whither away so fast?"
17034Has any one fallen in?
17034Have you got it?
17034Have you got it?
17034How can you if they ai n''t come? 17034 Indeed,"says little piggy,"and what may that be?"
17034Is That Samuel?
17034Late?
17034Lawks- a- mercy- me,cried his mother,"where''s the child got to now?
17034May I come with you, Henny- penny, Cocky- locky, Ducky- daddles, and Goosey- poosey?
17034May I come with you?
17034May I come with you?
17034May I come with you?
17034May I go with you?
17034May I go with you?
17034May I go with you?
17034May I go with you?
17034May I go with you?
17034Money?
17034Not one o''them?
17034Now, father, may I marry my lass?
17034Now, neighbours,he said,"how much meal is there in my sack?"
17034Pay?
17034Ready?
17034Tell me, what am I to do?
17034Thank you with all my heart,says she;"but do n''t you think I had better put you back in the well before I go on?
17034That depends,quoth Jack:"but first tell me wherefore you are thus held imprisoned?"
17034Then no one will be able to open it, will they?
17034Then what do you want?
17034Well, my beauty,says That, giving her the five skeins all ready spun,"what''s my name?"
17034Well,said the courtier,"what will you give me if I find the twelfth man?"
17034Well-- is That Methuselah?
17034Well-- is That-- Zebedee?
17034What are ye a- feared of? 17034 What are you crying for?"
17034What are you doing?
17034What are you laughing at?
17034What do you think your cat will sell for?
17034What do you want, Master?
17034What have I done?
17034What is that you are singing, my good woman?
17034What is the matter, my friend?
17034What is the matter?
17034What is the matter?
17034What shall we do to him?
17034What time shall we start?
17034What will you take for your cow?
17034What''s that to you, old man?
17034What''s that to you?
17034What''s the matter, dearie?
17034What''s the use of standing staring like a stuck pig?
17034What''s yon?
17034What,said she,"shall I do with this little sixpence?
17034Whatever can that be?
17034Whatever is the matter?
17034Whatever''s that?
17034Whence dost come? 17034 Where are you going to, Henny- penny and Cocky- locky?"
17034Where are you going to, Henny- penny, Cocky- locky, and Ducky- daddles?
17034Where are you going, Henny- penny, Cocky- locky, Ducky- daddles, and Goosey- poosey?
17034Where are you going, Henny- penny?
17034Where are you going, Jack?
17034Where are you going, Jack?
17034Where are you going, Jack?
17034Where are you going, Jack?
17034Where are you going, Jack?
17034Where are you going?
17034Where''s my hen?
17034Wherever have you been? 17034 Whither away so fast?"
17034Who are you?
17034Who art thou, mannikin?
17034Who should bring them?
17034Who''s there?
17034Who''s there?
17034Who''s there?
17034Why, of course, certainly, without doubt, why not?
17034Will it please you to partake of either?
17034Will you?
17034Wilt thou not spare an old man something?
17034You must call her''white- faced simminy''And this now,showing the fire,"what would you call this?"
17034You must call it''hot cockalorum''; and what this?
17034Ai n''t they beautiful?"
17034And as for the five skeins?
17034And he said to the hen- wife,"Canst tell me where lies the Dark Tower of the King of Elfland?"
17034And she clasped him in her arms and cried:"Oh, hear you this, my youngest brother, Why did n''t you bide at home?
17034And then the third head asked:"The dead carrying the living?
17034And upon the pillow----?
17034And what do you call all this?"
17034And what do you call these?"
17034And what do you think I saw?
17034And what little child will climb its beanstalk into the sky?
17034And what will that child find?
17034And what would you call her?"
17034And what would you call this?"
17034And when they lifted up the door, what do you think they found?
17034And where dost live?"
17034And will no diet serve you but poor little Jack?
17034Are n''t you ready?"
17034Are the apples nice?"
17034But the third, the prettiest and the merriest, tossed her head and said, with a twinkle in her eye,"Why so proud?
17034But, to please you, I will cast her horoscope by the stars; so tell me, girl, what day you were born?"
17034Can I not fight five hundred men in armour?
17034Can I not make them fly like chaff before the wind?"
17034For she thought she would never be able to find the Well of the World''s End, and, if she did, how could she bring home a sieve full of water?
17034Have I not three heads?
17034Have you seen a missing Castle that stands upon twelve pillars of gold?"
17034Have you seen a naughty little maid With a willy willy wag and a great big bag, Who''s stolen my money-- all I had?"
17034Have you seen my naughty little maid With a willy willy wag and a great big bag, She''s stolen my money-- all I had?"
17034Have you seen my naughty little maid With a willy willy wag and a great big bag, Who stole my money-- all that I had?"
17034Have you seen my naughty little maid With a willy willy wag and a great big bag, Who''s stole my money-- all I had?"
17034Have you seen my naughty little maid?"
17034Have you seen my naughty little maid?"]
17034He said to her,"What will you call me?"
17034How do you manage yours?"
17034I bet you know how many beans make five?"
17034I hope the oven''s hot?"
17034I hope the oven''s hot?"
17034I wonder if it will ever grow?
17034I wonder if you_ could_ give me some breakfast?"
17034If he was always in fear of death why did n''t he die and have done with it?
17034If that drab of a girl with her mincing ways got so much, what may I not get?"
17034If you want to know what it sang about?
17034Jack was terribly flabbergasted, but he faltered out:"And if I do n''t do it?"
17034Mr. Thomas Thumb,"says he jeeringly,"so you were going to pinch my cherry- stones, were you?
17034Now one day he wanted to find out if they loved him in return, so he said to the eldest,"How much do you love me, my dear?"
17034Now she, for all she was so gatless and thoughtless, said, cautious like:"But what is your pay?"
17034Now there was a fine large walnut tree growing by the cottage, and the tree said to the form,"Form, why do you gallop round the house?"
17034Now there was an old form outside the house, and when the window creaked, the form said,"Window, why do you creak?"
17034Now who could have left it in the ditch?"
17034Now, if I had done as much ill to you as you have done to me, what would you do to me?"
17034O father, hast thou brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
17034O mother, hast thou brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
17034On this the giant roared from within in a voice like thunder:"Who''s there?"
17034One said to the other,"To- morrow is our pay- day, and what shall we find to send our money to our landlord?"
17034Say What d''ye make the time o''day?"
17034Say What d''ye make the time o''day?"
17034Say What d''ye make the time o''day?"
17034Since we have no money, how are we to get a night''s lodging?"
17034So Childe Rowland said to the horse- herd,"Canst tell me where lies the Dark Tower of the Elfland King?"
17034So Jack was quite disconsolate till the King said,"But where is the eagle?
17034So he said to the man with the stick,"What will you take for your stick?"
17034So he said very politely:"If you please, sir, could you give me that straw to build me a house?"
17034So he said, quite curt,"What''s your pay?"
17034So he stopped his horse, and asked:"What is that you are singing, my good woman?"
17034So he went up to the musician and said,"What will you take for your bagpipes?"
17034So says she-- for she had been reading her Bible:"Is That Nicodemus?"
17034So she upped and opened the door and what did she see?
17034So she went forward and put her eye to the chink-- and what do you think she saw?
17034So the first head asked:"A thing without an end; what''s that?"
17034So the first head asked:"What''s the thing without an end?"
17034Sweetheart, hast thou brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
17034Then Catskin''s husband drew a chair close up to him, and asked him,"Pray, sir, had you not once a young daughter whom you would never see or own?"
17034Then Mrs. Vinegar woke, rubbed her eyes, yawned, and said,"Where am I?"
17034Then That said,"And now, my beauty, what is That''s name?"
17034Then a broom in the corner of the room said,"Stool, why do you hop?"
17034Then he said to the cow- herd:"Canst tell me where lies the Dark Tower of the Elfland King?"
17034Then he said to the second girl,"How much do you love me, my dear?"
17034Then he said:"What are you three after, sitting there crying like babies, and letting good cider run over the floor?"
17034Then said the door,"Broom, why do you sweep?"
17034Then she asked him if he would rather take a small cake with her blessing to eat on his journey, or a large cake with her curse?
17034Then she bribed him with her own magic wand, thus giving him power over all things in that enchanted land, saying:"Surely now wilt thou remain here?"
17034Then she put down her lip, and says, tearful like,"Is-- is-- That-- Solomon?"
17034Then the first and the second heads frowned, but the third head asked:"When does the dead carry the living?
17034Then the first head frowned, but the second head asked:"The smaller the more dangerous; what''s that?"
17034Then the good hard- working mother threw her apron over her head and sobbed:"What shall we do?
17034Then the hangman said,"Hast thee done thy prayers?
17034Then the second head said:"The smaller the more dangerous; what''s that?"
17034Then the three- legged stool said,"Tatty, why do you weep?"
17034Then the window said,"Door, why do you jar?"
17034They looked at each other and said,"How shall we weird this rude girl for her bad manners?"
17034Up to the very sky?
17034Was there not nothing felt in the night?"
17034What did he mean by it?
17034What have you here to do?"
17034What shall we do?"
17034What was it?
17034When it came to parting time, the young lord said,"Pray tell me, fair maid, where you live?"
17034Where are you, you bad boy?"
17034Where?...
17034Why should he take four bites at one cherry?
17034Will that please you?"
17034Will you have me broiled or baked?
17034Will you marry me?"
17034Wo n''t that satisfy thee?"
17034You dirty, impudent slut,"said the cook,"you go among all the fine lords and ladies with your filthy catskin?
17034[ Illustration: As he spoke he drew out of his pocket five beans]"Did you say right into the very sky?"
17034[ Illustration: The country folk flying before him like chaff before the wind]"Is that so?"
17034[ Illustration:"What is that you are singing, my good woman?"]
17034cried her mother,"whatever is the matter?"
17034echoed the giant, with a grin,"what do you take me for?
17034he cried,"how about breakfast now, Sir Giant?
17034is it a bargain?"
17034is that you?
17034quoth Jack to himself, starting up at once,"So that is your Welsh trick, is it?
17034said the other;"and which way will you bring them home?"
17034says he,"but where''s it gone?"
17034says he,"whatever is the matter?"
17034shall it be a bargain?"
17034will you ever learn wisdom?
44447And your granny lives there?
44447Faster they Ought to play- Ca n''t they do it quicker? 44447 Is that all?"
44447Poor dear,said the wolf, with a pitying grin;"But how does she do about letting you in?"
44447Then where is my honey?
44447What is that?
44447What makes you expect any, granny? 44447 What''s to be done?
44447When I reach granny''s cottage I always take care To knock at the door till she calls out''Who''s there?'' 44447 Where are you going?"
44447Your estates are enormous-- Pray, Marquis, inform us, If I may inquire, Did they come from your sire? 44447 And some of them cried,Oh, where do you hide?"
44447And what for our brats Can we do, my love?
44447Any news?
44447Beside the door a sentry Stood like the Roman soldier in the entry Discovered in the ruins of Pompeii,( Or Herculaneum-- which was''t?
44447But can you now, please, with just as much ease Into smaller dimensions at once yourself squeeze?
44447But what does he care for song, bluebell, or pollard?-- There are the jockeys that have to be collared.
44447But what sort of shoes had the sweet Cinderella- Polished leather, white satin, French kid, or prunella?
44447Do you hear?
44447I suppose we are passing here through your estate?"
44447In return for these compliments what can I do?
44447Is it far?"
44447It''s a very queer case-- Where_ can_ he have got?
44447It''s long since we had any victuals to carve, But now we''ve no soup To spoon out for the group- What_ is_ to be done?
44447Let Me carry that cake or that very big jar:--let Me carry it, pray-- are you taking it far?
44447My good friend the cat up a tropical tree?"
44447Oh, where could they be?
44447Pray who are you?
44447Said Hop o''my Thumb,"Madam, pray how d''ye do?
44447Said the monarch one day,"Come, tell me, I pray, Whereabouts is the Marquis''s property, eh?
44447Said wolf,"Where''s the cake Mother promised to make?"
44447Say, turn from the elephant, big as the house,_ Sans_ any embarrassment, into a mouse?"
44447She wore-- can''t you guess?--now what_ do_ you suppose?-- She wore-- come, you know what she had_ pour ses souliers?_-- She wore-- as A.
44447She wore-- can''t you guess?--now what_ do_ you suppose?-- She wore-- come, you know what she had_ pour ses souliers?_-- She wore-- as A.
44447The palace, he sees,?
44447The steed that in the palace courtyard cropt-- The very bird upon the roof that hopt-- The cook who mincemeat for the banquet chopt--?
44447What excuse can she make For the honey and cake?
44447What is it I see?
44447What more?
44447What need to enlarge?--It appears woman''s duty To differ from us upon questions of beauty.
44447What was he to do?
44447What will grandmother say?
44447When she said,"Will you go?"
44447While bitter tears bedewed her eye?- His was the"hew,"but hers the"cry."
44447Who''d be false To such a waltz, If to spin he''s able?
44447Who''s there?"
44447Why, foolish butterfly, Will you skip, flutter, fly Close by the child?
44447Wo n''t granny be cross, To breakfast off nothing-- with honey for sauce?"
44447[ Illustration: 038] Was ever there found A sleeper so sound?
44447[ Illustration: 120] What did he hear?- He regarded with fear Being left in the forest so dismal and drear!
44447[ Illustration: 140]"Who are you, you queer little crew?"
44447said Spite,"does she really?
44447though he''s in doubt of it; And for why?
44447why waste time In spinning rhyme, When one can easily contrive To picture it with words just five?- The usual"English labourer''s cottage."
34423A lady gave you a dollar to hand this bundle to me?
34423A thousand dollars''worth of gold from a seven- dollar bub-- bale of straw?
34423Ah-- what shall I sit down on, madam?
34423An egg? 34423 And do you know why?"
34423And how would you go about it?
34423And if I do n''t agree?
34423And it is n''t bad to have seven dollars more than you need whenever you need it, is it, dearest?
34423And leave you? 34423 And may I ask what you are doing here in these squalid quarters?"
34423And meanwhile,said the old man, tremulously,"how can I show my own gratitude to you personally for all you have done for me?"
34423And when that is gone?
34423And who the dickens are you?
34423And why not, my dear,smiled Wilbraham, amiably,"when my next wish is to be for six spandy new wishes straight from the factory?"
34423And will your Grace breakfast?
34423And you-- you are sure Colonel Digby will not renew it?
34423And you?
34423Any favorite dish you''d like to add, Major?
34423Any relation to the feller that''s bought the Flatiron?
34423Any word from Rockernegie?
34423Are you sure it''s real?
34423Are you trying to shadow me?
34423Asterbilt?
34423Bad, Richard?
34423Bad? 34423 Beg pardon?"
34423Better what, my dear?
34423Bombs?
34423Book- agent?
34423Bungalow?
34423But how shall you be paid?
34423But suppose I do n''t own''em?
34423But the old man-- he''s got to have some profit some time or other, has n''t he?
34423But what if he comes back?
34423But,she cried,"what are we going to do?
34423Buy''em?
34423By- the- way, would you mind if I lit my after- breakfast cigarette?
34423Ca n''t you get rid of father''s note in the same way?
34423Ca n''t you make it a week?
34423Did it hit you?
34423Did you have any luck?
34423Do you mean add or affix?
34423Do you mean to tell me that in all this great city there is no work of any kind that a hale, hearty, hungry boy like you can get to do?
34423Do you think she''ll have me?
34423Do you think there''s enough eggs here to satisfy your hunger? 34423 Eleven hundred and seventy dollars and fuf- fifty-- fuf-- five cents?"
34423Father, dear, did you ever try to cut calves- foot jelly with a steel knife?
34423Give him to me for a Christmas present?
34423Hard or soft, sir?
34423Have I-- have I been dreaming?
34423Have any letters or telephone messages been received for me?
34423Have we come to such a pass as that, father?
34423How about it, Mr. Vanderpoel,persisted the old man;"can you put me wise?"
34423How are you?
34423How can I buy''em if the other man wo n''t sell?
34423How much what?
34423How would you feel if your little Aladdin had a job as a chauffeur on a night like this?
34423I do n''t know if this is a hotel,said Jack, politely,"but if it is, might I get a bite here?"
34423I go?
34423I suppose you would n''t part with that book?
34423I''ve already given her four million, have n''t I, Amandy?
34423I-- I suppose you are living here now?
34423In Heaven''s name what for, Gasmerilda-- hairpins?
34423Is it buy or build?
34423Is that you, Gasmerilda?
34423It certainly is n''t a tent, or a chicken- coop, or a tool- house, is it? 34423 It would be a terrible nuisance,"he muttered to himself, and then turning to Oberon he asked:"What is your proposition?"
34423It''s a pretty nice sort of an arrangement, that,said the ogre, very much interested,"but suppose you draw out your whole balance, what then?"
34423It-- it is n''t overdrawn, is it?
34423Moneypenny?
34423No,said puss,"but why in thunder should you not be?"
34423Now what does it come to?
34423Oh, it will, will it? 34423 Oh, it''s you, is it?"
34423On nothing?
34423On what basis will you sell out?
34423Or have we really had a visitor?
34423Real money?
34423Really?
34423Rockernegie, eh?
34423Sambo,said the lad, calmly, with a wink at the slave,"is dungeon number thirty- seven on the fifteenth tier below the Subway occupied to- night?"
34423She is safe?
34423Suppose we say seven?
34423Sure an''she ai n''t la''nched yet, is she?
34423That?
34423The old lady a fairy? 34423 Vanderpoel Building, eh?"
34423Wall Street, eh?
34423We''ll underwrite the whole thing in my office-- bonds, stock, both common and preferred-- for say-- ahem!--how much did you say?
34423Well, Worthless,she said, with an affectionate glance into his fine eyes,"where have you been all day?"
34423Well, daughter,said the miller, as he met her in the hallway,"how does the good work proceed?"
34423Well, what do you think of it, Jack?
34423Well, what is it now, Sambo?
34423Well,he snapped,"how much?"
34423What can you mean, father?
34423What do you think you are doing?
34423What do you want?
34423What have we to do with markets from this time on? 34423 What have you in the package?"
34423What if I did rub the lamp?
34423What if I were to corner the market?
34423What is the old man''s balance?
34423What would you have me do, Puss?
34423What would you say to me as a son- in- law, eh?
34423What would you say to$ 2,500,000?
34423What''s he going to do with it when he gets it?
34423What''s that got to do with you?
34423What''s the trouble now? 34423 What''s twenty millions to a man who controls the United Mints of North America?"
34423What?
34423What?
34423When do we start, Popper?
34423When does the mortgage fall due, Richard?
34423Who do you suppose can be calling at this hour? 34423 Who is this?"
34423Who''s there?
34423Why do n''t these bachelors get married and have this sort of thing done at home, I wonder? 34423 Why do n''t you go in and buy it yourself?"
34423Will a duck quack?
34423Will you eat it?
34423Yes, child, yes-- but what of that?
34423You are the Duc di Lumière?
34423You do n''t call this a bungalow, do you?
34423You have?
34423You have?
34423You mean to say you can beat this place of mine anywhere?
34423You rubbed the lamp, I believe?
34423You wish to give up control of your gift?
34423*****"Now what, Puss?"
34423213"WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?"
34423At what time shall we foregather?"
34423Can you supply janitors?
34423Can-- can anybody work that book?"
34423Do you know who I am?"
34423Do you mean to tell me that such an inexhaustible treasure as this really exists?"
34423Eh?"
34423Have J. W. Midas& Co. rung me up yet?"
34423Here, boy, what is it?"
34423How do you know that?"
34423How much did the miller think the gold would pan out?
34423How much?"
34423I understand, too, sir, that you are the proprietor of these ten city blocks in which I and about twenty thousand of my neighbors are housed?"
34423I''ve been a widower for so many years now that I have become set in my ways, and--""But there''s another way round, ai n''t there?"
34423In short, my dear-- er-- er-- what is your name, sweetheart?"
34423Is there anything else you can suggest wherein a man can use a few more millions for the benefit of humanity?"
34423It read: HENRY W. OBERON Secretary, The United States Fairy Co., 3007 Wall Street"Henry W. Oberon, United States Fairy Company, Wall Street, eh?"
34423Now, what will you take to keep your hands off the market altogether?
34423Orders from the landlord to stop my sleeping?"
34423Really?"
34423SAID SHE, SCORNFULLY 199"THIS IS A HALF- PORTION, SIR,"SAID SAMBO 207"YOU RUBBED THE LAMP, I BELIEVE?"
34423SUGGESTED MR. DOBBINS 107"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?"
34423SUGGESTED MR. DOBBINS]"Could n''t make it three million, could you?"
34423So what are your demands?"
34423THEY DEMANDED]"What the devil does this mean?"
34423The Diggville markets are--""Markets?"
34423The old man leaned forward and, addressing Jack, inquired:"Did you ever hear of this man Vanderpoel, young man?"
34423Then if you hand him over a full million the second year-- well--""Well what?"
34423Turning to the butler, the miller asked:"James, has a bale of straw arrived here to- day from Colonel Midas?"
34423Twenty millions?"
34423What could it be?
34423What has become of it?"
34423What is it you demand?"
34423What kind of a book is that, young man?"
34423What the dickens do you want?"
34423What would my poor but honest parents think about this?"
34423What would you say to a nice little luncheon, my dear?
34423What''s the next step-- Algiers or Venezuela?"
34423Where did you register from?"
34423Who''s going to pay for all this when the bill comes in?"
34423Why do n''t you get a bale of straw and have your daughter turn it over a few times?"
34423Why, then, should I sell out at twenty millions?"
34423Wilbraham?"
34423Will you join me?"
34423Wo n''t you sit down, sir?"
34423You are rich now, but who knows that before 1915 you wo n''t be in a federal jail somewhere without a nickel?"
34423You certainly do not wish me to lose my social position-- about the only thing I have left?"
34423You have Major Bilkins''s check- book with you?"
34423Your father has negotiated a loan on your remarkable gift of spinning straw into gold, has he not?"
34423[ Illustration:"A WEEK''S VACATION IN LITTLE OLD NEW YORK"]*****"How did you manage it, sweetheart?"
34423[ Illustration:"COULDN''T MAKE IT THREE MILLION, COULD YOU?"
34423[ Illustration:"TELL''EM TO TELL MR. BONDIFELLER THAT I AM TOO BUSY TO SEE HIM"]"Oh, is that all?"
34423[ Illustration:"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?"]
34423[ Illustration:"WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?"
34423[ Illustration:"YOU RUBBED THE LAMP, I BELIEVE?"]
32867A real boy, that wants no winding up?
32867Afraid of what?
32867And can this be my own world? 32867 And do n''t you?"
32867And how are the sweet fairies that my young master is taking to their home?
32867And so we are going to Fairyland?
32867And they said,''What is starve? 32867 And what then?"
32867And who is the apple- woman?
32867And you promise that you will be kind to me till I grow up,said Mopsa,"and love me, and teach me how to reign?"
32867Apple- woman,said Jack,"tell us what you think; shall Mopsa go to this country?"
32867Are the other people''s feet not real?
32867Are those young fairies awake yet?
32867Are you sure of that?
32867Are you sure you brought it with you all the way from your own country?
32867As sound asleep as ever,answered Jack;"but, Albatross, is not that the sea which lies under us?
32867Bury themselves?
32867But do they never pick out the marks?
32867But do you feel as if you could n''t go?
32867But how did they come there?
32867But is it true?
32867But where are we to dig?
32867But who is to tell us where to run?
32867But why?
32867But your pinafore?
32867Can I buy you with this?
32867Can you tell us anything of the land beyond the mountains?
32867Come along, will you? 32867 Did he never see a full moon?"
32867Do I?
32867Do I?
32867Do n''t you know what happened when the door closed? 32867 Do n''t you observe that it is covered with ships?"
32867Do n''t you think I am strong enough to- day to set off for the happy meadows?
32867Do you like them as well?
32867Do you want to make enemies of them all?
32867Eh?
32867Have you been ill used?
32867Have you seen the town?
32867Have you?
32867He says,''Is this Fairyland?''
32867How am I to find your master?
32867How are you, dear?
32867How big?
32867How can I?
32867How did you become fawns?
32867I asked if this was Fairyland?
32867I do n''t like to have a slave,answered Jack;"and as you are so clever, do n''t you think you can find out how to be free again?"
32867I hope they are safe in my young master''s pockets?
32867I think I heard my sister tell you to whistle?
32867I wonder, I do wonder, what you are?
32867If I go,said Mopsa,"shall Jack go too?"
32867If it''s our world,said Jack,"why are none of us in it, excepting me and the apple- woman?"
32867Indeed,said Jack;"and do you like that?"
32867Is it real money?
32867Is n''t it?
32867Is their money like this?
32867Is this the only country where you set things right?
32867It appears that your horses do n''t talk?
32867Jack,said Mopsa,"did you see anything particular as you came down with the shooting- stars?"
32867Jack,said the parrot,"do they ever eat handkerchiefs in your part of the country?"
32867Jack,she said, before it grew dusk,"will you give me your little purse that has the silver fourpence in it?"
32867Liest thou low, love? 32867 Look at that,"said he;"what is to be done now?
32867Master,quoth the auld hound,"Where will ye go?"
32867My shepherd lord, my shepherd love, What wilt thou, then, with me? 32867 Not like him?"
32867Now, then, where''s my tea? 32867 Pray, are you a boy?"
32867Really?
32867Shall I?
32867Shall she be my slave forever, and not yours,said Jack,"if I give you this?"
32867So you have sold that good- for- nothing slave of yours?
32867That''s a fine hearing, and a strange hearing,said the apple- woman;"and what did she mutter next?"
32867That''s well,answered the bird;"then, in the next place, are those fairies awake yet?"
32867The marks?
32867Then I had better take Mopsa there than down the river?
32867Then I shall be king there,said Jack;"shall I?"
32867Then are you wound up every evening, like watches?
32867Then how do I happen to be here?
32867Then, dear Jack,answered Mopsa,"will you give it to me?"
32867These are fairies,said Jack''s slave;"but what are you?"
32867These are fairies,said Jack''s slave;"but what are you?"
32867They are gentle now, and kind; but where is the prince? 32867 Was she not like the others, then?"
32867Well,answered Mopsa, at the other end of the boat( but he could hardly see her for the dust),"then why do you dream of them?"
32867Well,answered the young fairy,"then why do n''t you whistle?"
32867Well,said Faxa, rather sharply,"do you find any fault with the way I go?"
32867Well,said all the ravens at once,"did the young master never see a crescent moon in the men and women''s world?"
32867Well,she said to her,"do n''t you mean to speak to me?"
32867What craft is this that hangs out no light?
32867What did you give for her?
32867What do you make such a fuss for?
32867What do you mean by all this?
32867What do you mean?
32867What do you want? 32867 What does he say?"
32867What harm did I do?
32867What is that woman doing?
32867What is the message?
32867What is your name?
32867What shall I give you then?
32867What then?
32867What things?
32867Where are all the fairies gone to?
32867Where is Mopsa going? 32867 Where is the Queen?"
32867Who are you?
32867Why did you leave off so soon?
32867Why did you?
32867Why do n''t you?
32867Why do you like me?
32867Why not?
32867Why not?
32867Why not?
32867Why not?
32867Why not?
32867Why, what made you think of such a thing? 32867 Why?"
32867Will ye step aboard, my dearest? 32867 Would the slave be cheap at a penny?"
32867Would you give a penny for her, dear sir?
32867Would you like to wear these,said the woman,"instead of yours?"
32867Yes, sir,answered the woman;"but where is it now?"
32867You are a stranger here, no doubt?
32867You are not exactly fairies, I suppose?
32867You do n''t suppose, do you,she answered,"that our Queen will wind up strangers?"
32867You do n''t suppose, surely, that we can go forever?
32867You remember my name?
32867You wo n''t go yet, will you?
32867You''ve set your cage swinging with knocking yourself about; and what good does that do? 32867 ''May I have a satin gown and a coach?'' 32867 All his wish was to please her, and get close to her; so when she said, in a soft, wheedling voice,What will you please to buy, my pretty gentleman?"
32867And then she paused, and said,"Is it three o''clock?"
32867At last Jack said,"When is the breakfast coming?"
32867At last she said to Jack,"What was the name of the great bird that carried you two here?"
32867But still Mopsa walked on blindfold, and the wand pointed at the rock till it touched it, and she said,"Who is stopping me?"
32867But the boy,--I want to know why this boy turned into another ME?"
32867But when Jack took out the shilling, and said,"Shall I buy you with this, slave?"
32867But you are sure she said that Mopsa was short of her proper height?"
32867Can not you let things alone for this one day?"
32867Can you buy me, Jack, to be your slave?"
32867Do n''t you know that what it is first called that it will be?"
32867Do n''t you think we had better spend my shilling in buying you some new clothes?
32867Do you think it matters?"
32867Do you think you shall remember that?
32867Doth it read Therefore the worse?
32867Has nobody told you?"
32867How did the horse get here?"
32867How do you like it?"
32867I am a queen of alien birth, and did not I come against my will?"
32867I say, how does my shawl fit?"
32867I wonder what will be done to all your people for driving, and working, and beating so many beautiful creatures to death every year that comes?
32867I''m willing to gee, and I''m agreeable to wo; but what''s a fellow to do when you say them both together?"
32867Is it frightened?"
32867Is n''t it delightful?
32867Jack thought again, and was so long about it that at last the beautiful slave said to him,"Master, do you see those purple mountains?"
32867May n''t I even ask how big it is?"
32867Now I have one thing more to say to you, and that is, are you hungry?"
32867Oh, what shall I do?
32867Queen?"
32867So Mopsa, thinking she had explained everything, said again,--"And, dear Jack, will you give the silver fourpence to me?"
32867So he sprang ashore, and said to the boat,"Stay just where you are, will you?"
32867Then I busked mysel''wi''speed, And the neighbors cried"What need?
32867Then it spoke again to Mopsa:"What was it that you wished me to tell you?"
32867Then she began to gather up her lovely locks; and when she had dried her eyes with them, she said,"Master, do you know what you have done?
32867Then she glanced at Jack, who was still sitting in the boat, and said,"Can you strike?"
32867Then she spoke again to Jack:"Tell me, Jack, what can I do with a wand?"
32867Then the woman answered Jack,"Why not?
32867This is a very wholesome country for horses; is n''t it, Boney?"
32867Upon this, to Jack''s intense astonishment, the old horse stopped, and said, speaking through his nose,--"Now, then, which is it to be?
32867Wand, do you bend?
32867Was it you, my royal nephew, who spoke last?"
32867What do you want?
32867What is it that you wish to say?"
32867What said the new clock in her bower?
32867What said the old clock in the tower?
32867What were they?
32867What''s the world, my lass, my love!--what can it do?
32867When Clink saw the shilling he changed color, and said, very earnestly,"Where did you get that, dear sir?"
32867When Jack saw these he was vexed, and said,"What do you mean by being so silly?
32867When Jack''s slave saw this, she took the little creature on her knee, and said to her,"How comes it that you are not like your companions?"
32867When shall my loss be gain?
32867Who pipes upon the long green hill, Where meadow grass is deep?
32867Why do n''t you go with the others and have some breakfast?"
32867Why you do n''t think, surely, that she will ever be any different from what she is now?"
32867You will help me to take care of her, wo n''t you, tills she grows a little older?"
32867_ As you Like it._"Where is it now?"
32867and he ran after the old women, calling to them,--"Is there any law to prevent my coming into your country?"
32867and she lifted up her beautiful eyes, and murmured out,"What is to be done now?"
32867and why am I not to follow?"
32867are you sure they never pick out the marks?"
32867continued the raven, pretending to listen;"did this dear young gentleman say that the fairies were asleep?"
32867cried the last of the four,"how do you think you are ever to get out, if she does n''t take hold of your legs?"
32867cried the red- coated old woman, and the horse stopped, while the blue- coated woman repeated,"Any law?
32867inquired Jack; but the Queen blushed, and pretended not to hear the question, so he repeated,--"Queen, who is the apple- woman?"
32867low in the broom?
32867repeated the lady;"and pray what reason have you for not liking my royal nephew?"
32867said Jack;"can you go all the way back into the town again?
32867she replied; and the other, who had a blue satin cloak, answered,"Oh, does he?"
32867thought Jack to himself,"has he got a face like mine, and a name like mine too?"
32867what''ll you buy, sir?"
32867when I like you the best of anything in the world, and when I am come here to be queen?
32867where are the fairy knights and the fairy men?
32867who shall describe it?
32867why do n''t you wake?
32867why do you turn?"
26386Am I a criminal without knowing it? 26386 Am I asleep?"
26386Am I dreaming? 26386 And I,"said the Fairy of the Waters,"have I nothing to give you, my poor Graceful?"
26386And what became of them?
26386And where are these treasures, grandmamma?
26386And where is my fortune?
26386And who are you?
26386And why are they called so?
26386And why are you called Pazza?
26386Are you not satisfied?
26386Are you not satisfied?
26386Are you not satisfied?
26386Are you satisfied?
26386Are you the masters of this rich domain?
26386But if I show you the prince?
26386But, my son, have you never looked in the brook?
26386Can I find her?
26386Can I not season you, at least?
26386Did you have pity on me when I implored your aid, ungrateful wretch?
26386Did you have pity on me when I implored your aid, ungrateful wretch?
26386Do I look like one whose business it is to sweep the brooks? 26386 Do n''t you know but one song?"
26386Do n''t you know me?
26386Do n''t you know that you lack an eye, a leg, and a wing? 26386 Do you hear the cuckoo singing yonder?
26386Do you see that great rock yonder?
26386Do you see that?
26386Do you take me for a clerk? 26386 Do you think that I do, either?"
26386Do you think that she will recover?
26386Do you think,said she, with a pettish air,"that a good husband would leave that door wide open and not know that his wife was freezing with cold?"
26386Explain yourself, dear Finette; what farce are we playing now?
26386Finette,howled he,"why is n''t the table set?"
26386Fool, do I look like a man who has been dreaming? 26386 Have you always done your duty?"
26386Have you been to the bottomless pit to collect my rent?
26386Have you brought back the horse?
26386Have you cleaned the stable?
26386Have you hold of the knob?
26386Have you loved?
26386Have you never heard of the Castle of Life and the Fountain of Immortality?
26386Have you suffered for her whom you have loved?
26386Have you the tongs?
26386How came you in the Castle of Life?
26386How did he enter, and where has he fled?
26386How long have you been playing the cuckoo up there?
26386How much do you want?
26386How will you set to work to ride him?
26386I am your brother''s fortune?
26386Is he the countess''s nephew?
26386Is it one of the animals that you have in this country? 26386 Is the page dead?"
26386Is this house and furniture yours?
26386Master,said Pensive,"do you hear the roaring of the waters?
26386Master,said he,"what will become of us?
26386My dear child,said she in the morning,"what did you dream last night that you laughed so?"
26386My dear child,said she in the morning,"what did you dream last night?"
26386My dear child,she said the next morning,"what did you dream last night that you laughed aloud?"
26386My fair one,said the King of the Mines,"I am very sorry; but what can I offer you?
26386No, a little evil and much good; but what does it matter?
26386Not to please me?
26386Of what, my dear child?
26386Oh, sire, what have you done?
26386Sire, the little doctor who took the liberty of boxing Your Majesty''s ears--"Was it you that sent him?
26386Sire,murmured he, in a mysterious voice,"has Your Majesty seen it?"
26386Sire,said he,"will His Majesty permit the humblest of his servants to be the first to express to him the universal joy?
26386Sire,said the young fairy, taking the king''s hand,"Your Majesty surely will not refuse me a wedding gift?"
26386Ten cows?
26386Well, sire,the countess said,"what do you think of this child?"
26386What am I doing on this horse?
26386What are you looking for?
26386What are you looking for?
26386What can have happened?
26386What could I say to him?
26386What did I dream, mamma? 26386 What did I dream, mamma?
26386What do you say?
26386What do you see in all that?
26386What do you want?
26386What do you wish to do with them?
26386What does it matter?
26386What does she require of you?
26386What does that matter?
26386What does that matter?
26386What does this mean?
26386What does this mean?
26386What fool''s tale are you telling me?
26386What have you done?
26386What insolent fellow addresses his prince in this way?
26386What is etiquette?
26386What is myfinette?
26386What is the use of changing your climate and putting your life at the mercy of the sea, the weather, or a master? 26386 What is this?"
26386What is this?
26386What is your name, and what do you want here?
26386What is your name, vassal?
26386What is your name?
26386What matters it to me?
26386What matters it to you, old fool?
26386What means this enigma, sire?
26386What means this pony that I am leading? 26386 What must I do for this?"
26386What specter?
26386What, more?
26386What? 26386 What?"
26386Where are those ignorant fellows, those pedants, those ill- bred men that did not wait for me? 26386 Where are those knaves?"
26386Where are you going so late, friend Piper?
26386Where are you going?
26386Where are you going?
26386Where did you find these fine things?
26386Where did you find these things?
26386Where have you been so long?
26386Where is Destiny?
26386Where is Pensive?
26386Where is that infernal doctor?
26386Where is the cask?
26386Which way did the villain go that just insulted me?
26386Who are these two ladies?
26386Who are you, then,asked he,"that would have prevented my having these shoes?"
26386Who are you?
26386Who are you?
26386Who has put such a folly into your head? 26386 Who is talking of Wieduwillst?"
26386Who talks to you of silver? 26386 Why did you bring only two?
26386Why did you come here?
26386Why have you come here, my child?
26386Why have you come here? 26386 Why have you returned?"
26386Why should the fairies have deceived us? 26386 Why so?"
26386Why take this long journey?
26386Why this cruel silence?
26386Will you not? 26386 Will you take ten sheep for it?"
26386Would you like to earn something by your music?
26386Yes, and how will you set to work to sweep it?
26386You here again, my child?
26386You think much evil of him, then?
26386You will surely let me redeem my nose?
26386After seeing you here, how can I return to suffer alone?"
26386Am I going to abandon you?
26386Am I not here?
26386And what became of the fair- haired lady?
26386Are you dreaming?
26386Are you not satisfied?"
26386Are you wholly without heart?"
26386Atony--_asinis!_ Plethora--_asini!_ Nervousness--_asinorum!_ Drink the Clear Waters--_asininum!_ Do you know what is your disease?
26386But what was I to do?
26386But what was he to do, what means could he employ with a child that a worshiped wife had bequeathed to him in dying?
26386But where is she?
26386But where was the piper?
26386But, now I think of it, do you remember the rash vow that you made on the night of our marriage?
26386By what chance had these insane ordinances found their way into the official journal?
26386Can you find nothing better to say to me to- day?"
26386Charming was young; he still clung to life, and, moreover, how could he resist the tender solicitude of the good doctor?
26386Charming, are you mad?
26386Coranda, will you take my hand instead of my father''s nose?"
26386Could she be the Duchess of Normandy or the Queen of France?
26386Did I overturn this lamp?
26386Do you believe that Providence has saved us from the fangs of that monster to wreck us in port?"
26386Do you hear?"
26386Do you know to what danger and suffering the traveler exposes himself?
26386Do you know what proverbs are called?"
26386Do you not know that there is a crown to be gained there?"
26386Do you not think that at Rome itself you will regret the ease and plenty of such a life?"
26386Do you renounce immortality?"
26386Does he think that I will bear this new insult to my gray hairs?
26386Does he think that I will leave to mulatto children the empire of the Vermilion Towers, the glorious inheritance of my ancestors?
26386Does some danger threaten me?
26386Had he brought the bride the jewels of some queen?
26386Had he conquered a kingdom, a duchy, or a barony?
26386Had the fairies protected him?
26386Have I deserved your displeasure, that you threaten me with a dungeon?"
26386Have you lost your reason?
26386He ran after his enemy, but which way had she fled?
26386How many rivals had he overthrown?
26386Is it a new insult?
26386Is it a warning from heaven?
26386Is it almost ready?"
26386Is not my place in my father''s house at my sister''s wedding?
26386Is this the rose fresher than the morning dew, the miracle of beauty that has come from the rind of a citron?
26386Is this the spotless lily that he has been to the end of the world to seek?
26386Marriage or prison, which do you choose?"
26386Must I leave such an heir after me, and intrust the happiness of my people to a crowned fool?"
26386One day, however, as he was admiring his wheat, which was the most beautiful that ever was seen, a stranger passed by and asked,"Whose wheat is this?"
26386Shall I look about the house?
26386Since you know so much, tell me what is a wise man?"
26386The elder brother, who did everything, said to himself, one day,"Why should I work for this idler?
26386The taxes were doubled, but who could regret money so nobly employed?
26386Then he stretched his limbs, half opened one eye, and cried out:"Do you hear me?
26386Then he yawned, stretched his great limbs, and cried out, impatiently:"Is n''t it ready yet?"
26386Then, raising her voice, she called, in her sweetest tones,"What are you doing up there, lovely lady?"
26386They say that you dance beautifully; teach me to dance, will you?"
26386Was it ever known whence she came?"
26386Was it his fault if the ladies had been indiscreet or the prince had changed his mind?
26386What are you commonly called?"
26386What are you thinking of, Prince Charming?
26386What do you want?
26386What does this mean?
26386What is an ignorant man?"
26386What is this myfinette?
26386What other woman than Finette could be by the side of Yvon?
26386What portfolio is that?--the minister''s?
26386What shall I do meanwhile to amuse myself?
26386What shall I find in the fourth room, I wonder-- diamond soup?"
26386What sort of soup is this?
26386What was the king of the Vermilion Towers to do?
26386What were they to do?
26386When Finette had learned what was the task of the day,"Well,"said she,"how will you go to work to do it?"
26386When he had snored a full hour, the giant stretched his limbs, half opened one eye, and cried,"Is it ready?"
26386Where are you going?"
26386Where did he come from?
26386Where did you get these apples?"
26386Where had he been?
26386Where is the opinion?
26386Where was she?
26386Which way did she go?
26386Whither would you go, unhappy boy?
26386Who gave you to me?"
26386Who had sent them?
26386Who knows whether folly would not be more successful?
26386Why are you not among the eager and curious crowd that is pressing around the prince to dispute his smile and heart?
26386Why did not Wieduwillst make his appearance?
26386Why did you let her go?"
26386Why leave your home, where you have been born and bred?
26386Why should I quit the castle?"
26386Will you let yourself be dethroned and duped by a deceiver?
26386You are a coward-- do you hear?
26386are you my fortune?"
26386cried Graceful,"what shall become of me?
26386cried she, in a trembling voice,"what are you doing here?"
26386cried the farmer,"had you the heart to kill the innocent creature that was the joy of the house?"
26386did I tear these papers?"
26386exclaimed Charming,"is there anything more?"
26386is it you?"
26386rejoined Graceful;"industrious as you are, will you do like the grasshoppers and renounce your share in immortality?"
26386returned the farmer;"why should I not be satisfied?
26386said Graceful to the ants,"are you not going to the Castle of Life?
26386said he,"what new trick have you played me?"
26386said the mother,"what can the unhappy child be dreaming now?"
26386said the old lady, smiling;"do n''t you know that nobody lectures kings?"
26386where are you?"
43600And can the flowers in the botanic garden go out there? 43600 And didst thou do any thing else?"
43600And how so?
43600And may I always remain here?
43600Are my flowers now lying in Sophie''s bed?
43600Are they not driven out?
43600Are we now in the Garden of Paradise?
43600But how can I get through the little mouse- hole in the floor?
43600But how can one flower tell another? 43600 But is there nobody who gives the flowers any thing while they dance in the king''s castle?"
43600But shall we not have revenge on the naughty boys?
43600Can my flowers actually have been there?
43600Can no child go to the ball?
43600Can the professor understand pantomime?
43600Canst thou remember what thou hast to tell me?
43600Do you want to go in the bags?
43600Does it not smell delicious?
43600Dost thou know what?
43600Dost thou not know what ails them?
43600Have you a passport?
43600He shall have, next summer, a nice little sister, such a beautiful little sister as never was seen!--Will not that be a reward for him?
43600Is it the little zephyr?
43600Listen, and tell me,said the prince,"what sort of a princess is that of which thou hast said so much, and who lives in the Garden of Paradise?"
43600Now what shall we have to- night?
43600Now, then, can not we tell a story?
43600Shall I have any stories?
43600Shall not we fly down and peck their eyes out?
43600Shall the boys come and hang thee, and burn thee, and wring thy neck? 43600 Shall we be hanged and burned?"
43600Shall we stay in the country, or shall we travel into foreign parts?
43600Should we not have a merry evening?
43600The cold winter is just at hand,said the little swallow;"I am going far away to the warm countries, wilt thou go with me?
43600They call me Love,replied the boy;"dost thou not know me?
43600Thou art a merry lad,said the poet;"what is thy name?"
43600Thou art in the cave of the winds; my sons are the four winds of the earth; canst thou understand?
43600What didst thou do there?
43600What is that?
43600Where am I now come to?
43600Where are thy sons?
43600Where do the prettiest flowers dance?
43600Where dost thou come from?
43600Why do the flowers look so miserably to- day?
43600Will it freeze the naughty boys into bits?
43600Wilt thou be frozen to death here, when winter comes?
43600Wilt thou dance with me?
43600Yes, that you, who are a sensible man, may well say,said the fieldmouse;"what has the bird, with all its piping and singing, when winter comes?
43600Can they come such a long way?"
43600Do not you remember the good little boy who said, when the others sung,''that it was a sin to make fun of the storks?''
43600Dost thou see the winding field- path there, and the great cavern where the vine leaves hang like rich green curtains?
43600Had not we four years ago a summer which lasted five weeks, and it was so hot that people did not know how to bear it?
43600How can that be?"
43600Is it patriotic?
43600Is this a proper way to spend an evening?
43600Shall I go and call them?"
43600Some he set before him, and some he set behind; but his first question always was,"How does it stand in your character- book?"
43600Thou knowest him, dost thou not?
43600Were they palm trees or gigantic water plants which grew there?
43600What made thee come into the winds''cave?"
43600What sort of a little dandified chap art thou?
43600Where are they?
43600Why should I not do so?
43600Would it not be much better to put the house to rights?
43600said Yalmar;"will the young lady herself take the trouble?"
43600said little Ida, and clapped her hands;"but could not I see the flowers?"
43600said she,"and why has not anybody told me of it?"
43600said the eastwind;"but why hast thou put my brother from the south down in the bag?
43600said the turkey- cock;"what is the price by the yard?"
43600so thou comest from that corner, dost thou?"
43600why did Adam eat the forbidden fruit?
43600why did Eve gather of the tree of knowledge?
7074Beauty,( said the monster,) will you give me leave to see you sup?
7074What will you have, Beauty?
7074Is it his fault that he is so ugly, and has so little sense?
7074Why did I refuse to marry him?
57And what is that?
57Do you not know,was the answer,"that the son of the Grand Vizier is to marry the Sultan''s daughter tonight?"
57Forgive my ignorance,he asked,"what is the palace you speak of?"
57Have you not heard of Prince Aladdin''s palace,was the reply,"the greatest wonder in the world?
57Madam,replied the slave,"who can help laughing to see an old fool offering to exchange fine new lamps for old ones?"
57What have I done, uncle?
57What have you done?
57Where is your palace and my daughter?
57Aladdin''s mother, when she came to herself, said:"Whence comes this splendid feast?"
57He rubbed it and the genie appeared, saying:"What is thy will?"
57He was thunderstruck, and turning to the vizier, said:"What sayest thou?
57Immediately an enormous and frightful genie rose out of the earth, saying:"What wouldst thou with me?
57Ought I not to bestow the Princess on one who values her at such a price?"
57The Sultan sent her mother to her, who said:"How comes it, child, that you will not speak to your father?
57Was it by accident that one window was left unfinished?"
57What has happened?"
57Where is the lamp?"
57he cried,"is it not enough that I have done everything for you, but you must command me to bring my master and hang him up in the midst of this dome?
14241A match?
14241Ah, gaffer,said the fellow,"can you run to market alone?
14241And mend my clouts?
14241And now,he says,"I''m in a hurry to- night, but tell me quick, what''ll I do for thee?
14241And pray what might you be willing to pay me, if I rid you of every single rat in Franchville?
14241And scrub?
14241And what do they call ye?
14241And what''s yellow and shining but is n''t gold?
14241And will you tell me what you see in there? 14241 Ay, mother, where is it?"
14241Ay,said she, for she thought she''d like a fool for a husband,"when shall it be?"
14241Aye so?
14241But how am I to know the house?
14241But how did you get there, Tamlane?
14241But how shall I know you, Tamlane?
14241But how to save you, Tamlane?
14241But if I ca n''t?
14241But what will become of the dinner?
14241But,said the lassie,"where''s No Feet at all, and where''s the stair without steps?"
14241But,says he, scratching his head,"how can I do that?"
14241Buy sheep?
14241Can thee so?
14241Can''st cook?
14241Canst tell me what that is as has first no legs, and then two legs, and ends with four legs?
14241Coat o''muck,said she;"and what of that?"
14241Could thee do it?
14241Did you hear any snake biting you in my oldest brother''s bed?
14241Did you see my two brothers?
14241Do you call him your brother?
14241Do you?
14241Has n''t thou naught for supper, dame?
14241Have I got to kill thee, dost think, and take thy heart up to the wise woman for that pottle o''brains?
14241Have some breakfast with me?
14241Hi, missis; what sort of a coat''s that?
14241How d''ye do?
14241How did they look?
14241How will you get it out again?
14241How''s that for, missis?
14241How''s that?
14241I reckon thou''lt do then as well as anybody,says he;"but what''ll I do about this wise woman?"
14241If that be so,said Johnny Gloke, as he sprang, bold as a lion, from his hiding- place,"What do you say to Johnny Gloke with his old roosty sword?"
14241Is it so?
14241Is that all? 14241 Maybe,"says the wise woman,"but read me this, now, what''s yellow and shining but is n''t gold?"
14241Morning, fool,said she;"hast thou been ducked in the horse- pond?"
14241Nay, nay,said Tom,"my mother did not teach me such wit; who''d be a fool then?"
14241No, no,said the king,"can not one of the men do the errand?"
14241Now tinker where are you?
14241Now, how can I tell?
14241Now, neighbours,he said,"how much meal is there in my sack?"
14241Oh can you not be saved? 14241 Oh, what can I do for ye in return?"
14241See here, master,said he,"thou has n''t paid for thy score-- where''s thy money?"
14241So they all say,sighed the fool;"but where can I get the right sort of coat o''clay, then, missis?"
14241Tell me this then, what runs without feet?
14241That''s bad,says she;"and have n''t thee anybody to look after thee?"
14241That''s good hearing,says she,"and what then?"
14241Then if ye did it your own self,cried the elf- mother shrilly,"what''s the use o''making all this fash about it?"
14241Then what, I pray thee, dost thou want here, and what may thy business be?
14241Tibby,quoth he,"what''s that?"
14241Tree of mine, tree of mine, Have you seen a girl With a willy- willy wag, and a long- tailed bag, Who''s stole my money, all I had?
14241Welcome home, Lord Abbot,quoth the shepherd;"what news from good King John?"
14241Well, did you go to the castle?
14241Well, my young son, how are you this morning?
14241Well, then, question first-- where is the centre of the round earth?
14241Well,said the courtier,"what will you give me if I find the twelfth man?"
14241What ails thee, my son?
14241What art talking about?
14241What do you mean, wife?
14241What do you please to want?
14241What dost thou want with me now?
14241What shall we do to him?
14241What should I deliver?
14241What the dickens,said the squire,"do you mean by lying in the middle of the road like that?"
14241What''ll I do? 14241 What''s all this?"
14241What''s that the birdie sings?
14241What''s that to you?
14241What''s that?
14241What''s to be done now?
14241What''s up with thee, fool?
14241What,said Tom,"are you drunk with my strong beer already?"
14241Whence come you and whither are you going?
14241Where are you going?
14241Where be they?
14241Where come ye from, Tamlane, Tamlane?
14241Where did that come from?
14241Where was I? 14241 Who did it?"
14241Who gave you authority to come this way?
14241Who should bring them?
14241Why should it when I am but a fellow- servant?
14241Why, what''s the matter?
14241Will you?
14241Would you threaten us, you strolling vagabond?
14241''twixt ME and THEE, If I-- this Spirit that inspires me whence?
14241A tale in Henderson is English: why not a tale in Chambers, the majority of whose tales are to be found also south of the Tweed?
14241A voice came from the chimney speaking sharply:"Who''s there, and what''s wrong?"
14241About half an hour afterwards, she said,"Shepherd, do you think you could get me one more?"
14241And after a time the Bears came home, and when they got into the hall the big Bear went to his chair and said,"WHO''S BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR?"
14241And as they went to lay the foundation- stone, Gobborn Seer said to Jack,"Ca n''t you shorten the way for me?"
14241And did it come true, sayst thou?
14241And she got so angry that she pulled out the plug of the barrel, threw it at the dog, and said,"What dost look at me for?
14241And what do you think they were carrying?
14241And-- conclusive argument-- wilt thou, oh orthodox brother folk- lorist, still continue to use Grimm and Asbjörnsen?
14241Anyhow, I am the man; what have you to say to me?"
14241Are you not the king''s youngest son?
14241At last a thought came to him to send for his headsman, and inquire of him particularly, Did he behead his son, or was he alive?
14241At last she demands one of the sons to come before her; and the oldest comes, when she asks him,"Have you ever been at the Castle of Melvales?"
14241Burd Janet said;"and why have you been away so long?"
14241But does this find necessarily prove an original Celtic origin for Cinderella?
14241But he was surprised to find her there alive and safe, and he said:"How came you to be saved?"
14241But how will it do if I send my own son?"
14241But let that pass, and tell me question third and last, and that is-- What do I think?"
14241But see here; thou did n''t cut out thy mother''s heart, did thou?"
14241But they said:"What should the like of you do at church, nasty thing?
14241But who can have left it here?"
14241But wouldst o''me?
14241Ca n''t thee teach me a bit, so they''ll think me a clever fellow at home?"
14241Did you see the young lady?"
14241Do my friendly critics believe that even Campbell''s materials had not been modified by the various narrators before they reached the great J.F.?
14241Do you think you could tell her again?"
14241Finally, I have had Mr. Batten with me once again-- what should I or other English children do without him?
14241For the town money chest had been sadly emptied of late, and where was the fifty pounds to come from?
14241Have ye seen e''er a one?"
14241Have you any brains for to sell?"
14241Have you no wares to sell?"
14241Have you seen any?"
14241Have you seen any?"
14241How came he to die?
14241How do things go on at home?
14241How soon may I ride this round world about?"
14241How''s all in thy folk this year?"
14241I have changed the first query: What am I worth?
14241I should like to go to church, too,"but the three ugly sisters said:"What would you do at the church, you nasty thing?
14241If I-- the pumpkin why on YOU?
14241If THOU-- then what this sensual impotence?
14241If YOU-- then where am I, and WHO?
14241In a cowl, who will know me for what I am?"
14241It happened that his master heard him, and he asked,"Why do you blame Adam?
14241Jubal, did you ever hear such a thing in all your life, my brother?"
14241MR. G. After what?
14241MR. G. And why were they over- worked?
14241MR. G. Did he indeed?
14241MR. G. Heard of what?
14241MR. G. How came he to get so much horseflesh?
14241MR. G. My father gone too?
14241MR. G. My mother dead?
14241MR. G. To carry water, and what were they carrying water for?
14241MR. G. What?
14241Mark my words, will''ee?"
14241Now she says,"Have you not another son?"
14241Now, how could it have known that I was just_ terrible_ wanting something to hold my door open with?
14241O father, hast brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
14241O mother, hast brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
14241One day, Jan said to his wife,"Wife can you milk- y?"
14241One said to the other,"To- morrow is our pay- day, and what shall we find to send our money to our landlord?"
14241Or wilt have help wi''thy work?
14241Poison, I hear you say?
14241Puddock came to the Mousie''s inn,"Mistress Mousie, are you within?"
14241Rich?
14241Shall I marry thee, lass?"
14241She looked up and said:"If it may be no offence asking, what is it you feel so badly about?"
14241So I looked over the edge of the grave, and what do you think I saw?"
14241So he hummed and ha''ad and at last,"Come, my good man,"said he,"you see what poor folk we are; how can we manage to pay you fifty pounds?
14241So he went a- courting a fine maid, and he said to her:"Will you marry me?"
14241So poor Jack turned back, and when he came in his wife said,"Why, how''s this you''ve come alone?"
14241So they went on for a bit, and then, one day, Jan said to his wife,"Wife can you bake- y?"
14241So they went on for a bit, and then, one day, Jan said to his wife,"Wife can you brew- y?"
14241So they went on for a bit, and then, one day, Jan said to his wife,"Wife can you serve pigs?"
14241So when Jan came home, she up and said to him,"Jan, what is that bag of groats on the tester for?"
14241Steward, how are you, my old boy?
14241Sweetheart, hast brought my golden ball And come to set me free?"
14241Tell me if aught I can do will save you, Tamlane?"
14241Tell me the first""What runs without feet?"
14241The King went to meet him, and said to him,"How now, father Abbot?
14241The girl rose, went to the good dame, and gave her a friendly greeting, but could not help inquiring"What makes you so long lipped?"
14241The same tale told a few miles farther North, why should we refuse it the same qualification?
14241Then came in the old carl cat With a fiddle on his back:"Do ye any music lack?"
14241Then the hangman said,"Hast thee done thy prayers?
14241They cried out to him, Had he seen another young man in this wood?
14241They have all drawn out their pay, and yet they do n''t leave, and what can it be anyway?"
14241They waited and they waited, but still he did n''t come, till at last he came rushing in, calling out,"Who''s Tommy Tildrum?"
14241What a villain he was, was n''t he?
14241What to do?
14241Who can tell?
14241Who is it that sits next the bride But Lord Puddock with yellow side?
14241Who is it that sits next the wall But Lady Mousie both slim and small?
14241Why desert that form for one which the children can not so easily follow with"thous"and"werts"and all the artificialities of pseudo- Elizabethan?
14241Why did n''t the good people of the town have cats?
14241Why should n''t I just look at it?
14241Why, what did he get that he liked so well?
14241Will ye show me the way?"
14241Will you not take twenty?
14241Wilt be rich?
14241Wilt have a wife?
14241Would you like to hear it?
14241Yet I appeal to him, why make a difference between tales told on different sides of the Border?
14241[ Footnote 3: Who knows the Buck of Beverland nowadays?]
14241and how came it to be on fire?
14241and the middling Bear said,"WHO''S BEEN DRINKING MY MILK?"
14241and the middling Bear said,"WHO''S BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR?"
14241and the middling Bear said,"WHO''S BEEN SLEEPING IN MY BED?"
14241are they dead too?
14241exclaimed poor Jubal;"shall I go and get it down?"
14241laughed the squire,"whoever heard of a wise man lying in the middle of the highroad to be ridden over?
14241quoth Burd Janet,"amid so many knights I''ve ne''er seen before?"
14241said a voice by his side,"and what hast thou caught, that thou shouldst stain the Lord''s Day with such foul language?"
14241said he;"what do they call ye?"
14241said his mother,"_ that_ lass?
14241said his wife,"and why do you want to know who Tommy Tildrum is?"
14241said the landlord,"and help me along, wilt thee?
14241said the other,"and which way will you bring them home?"
14241said the wee, wee Mannie--"What''s a wee, wee mannie to do, Wi''such a big contrairy Coo?"
14241says he,"must I take mother''s heart to her?"
14241says he,"who''ll take care of me now?
14241what fire?
14241what torches?
14241what''ll I do to get that pottle o''brains, now I''m alone in the world?"
14241will you ever learn wisdom?
14241you dirty impudent slut,"said the cook,"you go among all the fine lords and ladies with your filthy catskin?
20916And how,said the emeer,"can we contrive to enter it, and divert ourselves with a view of its wonders?"
20916And how,said the king,"do they walk in the sea without being wetted?"
20916And what did Imama to Ateca?
20916And what is that?
20916And what may that reason be, sir,replied Ali Baba,"if I may be so bold as to ask you?"
20916And what stratagem is it you would employ?
20916And where,said the sheikh,"is the way to the City of Brass, and the place wherein are the bottles?
20916Are all my sons,demanded he,"in the tower?"
20916But they who will attack you are not to be seen,replied the dervish;"how will you defend yourself against invisible persons?"
20916But wherein have I offended you?
20916From whence come you?
20916Genie,said he,"will not you keep the oath you just now made?"
20916How comes it, child,said the sultaness,"that you do not return my caresses?
20916How many of these pieces,added he,"have you?
20916How, brother?
20916Is that your reward for the service I have rendered you?
20916Know''st thou not that lake?
20916Mother,replied he,"how do you know the sultan has been guilty of a breach of promise?"
20916Mother,said he,"have I an uncle?"
20916My daughter,said he to the princess,"where are the musicians whom I hear?
20916My dear lord,cried she,"do I not deceive myself; is it certain that I hear you, and that you speak to me?"
20916My good mother,replied the Princess Periezade,"what are those?
20916My lovely black,resumed the queen,"what do you mean by the root?"
20916O my son,cried the sultan,"is it possible that you are restored to me?
20916One of them said to the other,''Is not the queen wrong, not to love so amiable a prince?'' 20916 Princes,"cried he,"is it you whom I behold?
20916Sir,said Codadad,"give me leave to ask how you could know the adventure of the castle?
20916Sister,said Prince Bahman,"what is become of all your mirth and gaiety?
20916That is strange,said the fisherman,"are you resolved to reward good with evil?
20916Unhappy woman,said the sultan,"art thou worthy that I should answer thee?"
20916Vizier,replied the sultan,"why will you have it to be enchantment?
20916Well, Aladdin,replied the magician,"what business do you follow?
20916Well, brother,said she, with impatience,"what news do you bring me of my husband?
20916Well, daughter,said he,"are you in a better humour than yesterday?"
20916Well, giggler,said the princess,"will you tell me what you laugh at?"
20916Well, vizier,said he aloud,"who do you think it can be that has sent me so extraordinary a present?
20916Well,continued the sultan,"what sayest thou to such a present?
20916Well,said Baba Mustapha, which was his name, and who was a merry old fellow, looking at the gold,"this is good hansel: what must I do for it?
20916Well,said the emperor,"have you spoken to your sister, and has she consented to the pleasure I expect of seeing you?"
20916Well,said the enchantress,"to pacify you, I am ready to execute your commands; would you have me restore him?"
20916Well,said the sultan,"have you seen Aladdin''s palace?"
20916What calamity hath befallen you?
20916What can be the meaning of this mark?
20916What could you sew up a dead body for? 20916 What do I hear?"
20916What do you here, my dear brothers?
20916What motive can hinder you?
20916What novelty is this?
20916What wouldst thou have?
20916Where are you, my brave lads,cried he,"old companions of my watchings, inroads, and labour?
20916Where,said she,"can he get so many large gold trays, and such precious stones to fill them?
20916Who is this difficult man,said she,"who eats no salt with his meat?
20916''But tell me,''replied he,''can you shoot with a bow?''
20916''But, sir,''said I,''may I presume to ask your Majesty, if strangers be obliged to observe this law?''
20916''Captain,''said I,''was the merchant''s name, to whom those bales belonged, Sinbad?''
20916''Those negroes,''replied they,''eat men, and by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?''
20916''What do you mean, Sinbad?''
20916''You believe him, then, to be dead?''
20916After the proof we have had of his riches, can we think it strange that he should raise a palace in so short a time?
20916Aladdin got up trembling, and with tears in his eyes, said to the magician:"What have I done, uncle, to be treated in this severe manner?"
20916Aladdin''s mother asked the oil- merchant what was the meaning of all this preparation of public festivity?
20916Aladdin, who had never been so far before, began to find himself much tired, and said to the magician:"Where are we going, uncle?
20916And if I could, can I undertake it without exposing so much gold and treasure to him who hath already enriched himself out of it?
20916And ought I not to bestow her on one who values her at so great price?"
20916And the sheikh said:"Are there in this place any of the efreets confined in bottles of brass from the time of Solomon?"
20916And thereupon, Talib, the son of Sahl, said to the Emeer Moosa:"O Emeer, shall we leave this damsel with the things that are upon her?
20916And they replied:''O great King, can Solomon do aught unto thee, when thou art in the midst of this vast sea?
20916And what have I done to deserve one so wretched?"
20916Are they under ground, or invisible in the air?
20916Are you all here alive?
20916Are you allied by blood or love?''
20916Are you not well?
20916Are you of any trade?"
20916Are you resolved to let me die without affording me the comfort of hearing your voice?"
20916As he expected what had happened at Ali Baba''s might make a great noise, he asked his host what news there was in the city?
20916At that summons the genie appeared, and said:"What wouldst thou have?
20916But do you think it an easy matter absolutely to refuse the emperor what he seems so earnestly to desire?
20916But do you think you have merited the honour you would have me ask?
20916But the emeer replied:"Heardest thou not that which the damsel hath given as a charge, in the inscription upon this tablet?
20916But to come to what most particularly concerns me: tell me, I conjure you, how so wicked and perfidious a man treats you?"
20916But what presents have you to make?
20916But who,''added he, looking upon the sultan, my husband,''is that man?
20916Can I believe these are your brothers who have treated you so unmercifully, those brothers whom thy valour had saved?
20916Can not these inspire you with joy and make you forget the fancies of a dream?"
20916Codadad, my dear Codadad,"cried she,"is it you whom I behold just departing this life?
20916Did I not just now set you at liberty, and have you already forgotten my services?"
20916Do not you hear the trumpets of congratulation, and concerts of the finest music?
20916Do not you think, mother, that what I brought home with me the day on which I was delivered from death may be an acceptable present?
20916Do you know what she wants?"
20916Do you not know it?
20916Do you not think the first person I should speak to would take me for a mad woman, and chastise me as I should deserve?
20916Do you think him worthy of the Princess Badroulboudour, my daughter?"
20916Hast thou then a wish to accomplish the affair of the Prince of the Faithful?"
20916Have any of my brothers, repenting, owned it to you?"
20916Have you any other commands?"
20916Have you not been an eye- witness of what it has procured us?
20916He advanced toward the pan, and touching one of the fish with his staff, said, with a terrible voice:"Fish, are you in your duty?"
20916He could not check his anger:"Indiscreet stranger,"said he to Codadad,"why did you let my sons go without bearing them company?
20916He sent for the fisherman, and when he came, said to him:"Fisherman, the fish you have brought us make me very uneasy; where did you catch them?"
20916How came that vile genie to address himself to me, and not to you, to whom he had appeared before in the cave?"
20916How can I open my mouth to make the proposal to the sultan?
20916How could so extraordinary a thought come into your head, as that I should go to the sultan and ask him to give his daughter in marriage to you?
20916How then can she return the salutation?"
20916How then could my heart be happy to quit thee, and to depart from thee?
20916How then shall the affair be?"
20916In what province, country, or part of the world, shall I find that and my dear princess?
20916Is it from insensibility, or contempt?
20916Is it not reasonable that, after all this, I should enjoy a quiet and pleasant life?"
20916Is it not worthy of the princess, my daughter?
20916Is it possible that he does not perceive it?''
20916Is it possible that thou dost not believe me after the solemn oath I have taken?"
20916Madam,"added he, addressing himself to the princess of Deryabar,"do you also forgive me for having concealed my birth from you?
20916May I flatter myself that it is in my power to restore you to the sultan your father, who is inconsolable for the loss of you?
20916Must I spend my life in sloth, when all my brothers have the happiness to be fighting by his side?"
20916Must he go again to that subterranean abode and gather them off the trees?
20916Ought you to treat your mother after this manner?
20916Pray tell us your history, for it must be extraordinary; how did you venture yourself into this river, and whence did you come?''
20916Remember, too, that he would eat no salt with you; and what would you have more to persuade you of his wicked design?
20916She replied:"O my master, is the recompense of beneficence aught but beneficence?
20916She was in as great amazement at what her son told her, as at the appearance of the genie; and said to him:"But, son, what have we to do with genies?
20916So the Emeer Moosa said:"O Sheikh Abd- Es- Samad, what are these people?"
20916So the emeer said to him:"What hast thou seen, O Sheikh?"
20916So the king said to him:"What dost thou desire, O Saleh?"
20916Some said:"Where is that fool going?
20916Suppose I had the impudence to present myself before the sultan, to whom should I address myself to be introduced to his majesty?
20916The Vizier Talib, however, said:"And on account of these words wilt thou leave these riches and these jewels, when she is dead?
20916The apothecary inquired who was ill at her master''s?
20916The emeer said to him:"How long a period doth it require?"
20916The fisherman, when he heard these words of the genie, recovered his courage and said to him:"Thou proud spirit, what is it you say?
20916The genie helped him to dress, and when he had done, transported him back to his own chamber, where he asked him if he had any other commands?
20916The sultan, being much surprised, sent immediately for the fisherman, and said to him:"Friend, can not you bring me four more such fish?"
20916The sultan, growing impatient, demanded of him again:"Where is your palace, and what is become of my daughter?"
20916Then he said to his viziers:''What say ye respecting the affair of Solomon?
20916Then he said to them:"How will you carry away your goods?
20916Then the king of the blacks said to the emeer:"Are ye of mankind, or of the genies?"
20916There, possessed by his despair, he said to himself:"Where shall I seek my palace?
20916Unfortunate Codadad, why did you leave me?"
20916Was it a reason sufficient for him not to cast his eyes on you, because she was somewhat younger?
20916What can I do without you?
20916What could Cassim''s widow do better than accept of this proposal?
20916What craft can sail those perilous seas like the book that has been called a great three- decker to carry tired people to Islands of the Blest?
20916What distance is there between us and it?"
20916What has he done to obtain a lot so agreeable?
20916What have you done to claim such a favour, either for your prince or country?
20916What impudence is this?
20916What name do you call it by?"
20916What relation does he bear to you?
20916What say you, my lads?"
20916What then should she do with these things, which are the ornaments of the world, and the decoration of the living?
20916What would he have?
20916When he came to the door, he said:"Go in; you ought to know whereabouts your palace stood: look round and tell me what is become of it?"
20916When shall I enlist so gallant a troop again?
20916When they were gone, Codadad, directing his discourse to the lady, said:"What place, madam, do you desire to go to?
20916Where are they who enjoy quietly the happiness which they hold of her, and whose day is always clear and serene?"
20916Where has that poor wretch got all this wealth?"
20916Where is he going?
20916Who knows what dangers you and I may be exposed to, which neither of us can foresee, and from which it may deliver us?"
20916Who knows whether I shall ever see you again?
20916Why does he not call me to his assistance?
20916Why should you now doubt of the truth of what the holy woman told you?
20916Why, who are you, son,"continued she,"that you can have the assurance to think of your sultan''s daughter?
20916Will not this step be injurious to that friendship?"
20916You believed he was my uncle, as well as I; and what other thoughts could we entertain of a man who was so kind to me?
20916and what proportion could they bear to the favour you would ask?
20916and where will he get so many such slaves as the sultan requires?
20916child,"said she,"what are you thinking of?
20916cried the genie,"if you have a mind to be informed, open the vessel: do you think that I can be in a humour to relate stories in so strait a prison?
20916cried the mother,"was your lamp then the occasion of that cursed genie''s addressing himself rather to me than to you?
20916exclaimed Ali Baba,"what have you done to ruin me and my family?"
20916he exclaimed,''whom can we trust in these times?
20916my lord,"replied the young man,"how is it possible but I should grieve, and my eyes be inexhaustible fountains of tears?"
20916my son,"cried the African magician with a sigh,"how can I forbear?
20916or has some misfortune befallen you?
20916replied he,"you would have me do something against my conscience or against my honour?"
20916replied he,''how do you think I should obtain the favour you wish me?
20916replied the fisherman,"why should you kill me?
20916replied the prince;"and what difficulties do you find in so doing?"
20916replied the queen,"why do you reproach me thus?"
20916replied the sultan;"who can have that audacity?"
20916said Ali Baba,"what is it you show me?
20916said Codadad;"whence come these miserable lamentations, which pierce my ears?"
20916said he;"and with what design were these cucumbers stuffed thus with pearls, since pearls are not to be eaten?"
20916said she, addressing herself to the sultan, conceiving him to be the black,"My sun, my life, will you always be silent?
20916said she,"has Ali Baba gold so plentiful as to measure it?
20916said she,"what will become of me?
20916said the first,''how should he?
20916what are they, madam?''
20916which has condemned me to lead a life of calamities, if you will not permit me to have a consort, why did you permit me to find one?
20916why dost thou not swallow up that monster so revolting to human nature, or rather why dost thou not swallow up this pair of monsters?''
30129Am I delivered from this wicked fairy Detestable?
30129Am I in the hands of a fairy more powerful than herself?
30129Am I not tall and strong? 30129 And I, too,"said Violette,"can I not assist my good mother and Passerose?
30129And Violette and my son the prince, will you not extend your goodness to them also?
30129And can I not see it before my birthday?
30129And how will he ever find us, Passerose? 30129 And the dog, where is he?"
30129And the good white cow who brought me milk every day?
30129And what have these fairies said to you, my queen, to make you weep so piteously? 30129 And what is the name, may I ask, which has been concealed from you so long?"
30129And where could I possibly have found jewels as magnificent as hers? 30129 And why did you weep, my poor boy?"
30129And why, Madam Tortoise, should I seek to leave this forest? 30129 And you, dear Violette, have you been resting?"
30129Are you pleased, Rosette, to go to this festival?
30129Are you very certain of their death, Blondine?
30129But how do you know, Blondine, that this seeming neglect is not forced upon them? 30129 But how is it possible for me to leave the park?
30129But how shall I escape from the dreadful punishment which his majesty will inflict upon me?
30129But now I think of it,said Passerose,"tell me, Violette, how did you get to the bottom of that well without killing yourself?"
30129But what dress have you prepared for those three days?
30129But what is all this about?
30129But what is it that shines so brilliantly under the cloth?
30129But what said the fairy?
30129But why are you a prisoner? 30129 But why do you go there every day without permitting me to go with you?"
30129But why does she wish to hold me captive? 30129 But, father, what is there in the little garden- house?"
30129But, father, who and what then is this mouse, who causes you this terrible fear? 30129 But, madam, I thought that the palace of the prince was destroyed and he himself wounded sadly?"
30129But,said the nurse, shaking her head,"what dress will you wear, my poor child?"
30129Can I not see the queen my mother?
30129Can they have forgotten me?
30129Dear queen, what is the matter? 30129 Do I love him?
30129Do I love you, my cherished child? 30129 For the third and last time,"said the queen, frowning fearfully,"I ask if you will take the princess to the forest?
30129Give employment to a bear?
30129How could I sleep, dear Ourson, when I was the cause of all your sufferings?
30129How did this cream come to be upset on the floor?
30129How, if you have ever known me, could I have forgotten your name and features?
30129I am here, Beau- Minon; I am following you gladly,said Blondine;"but how can we pass through these bushy thickets?
30129I know of no charm and what interest have Bonne- Biche and Beau- Minon in keeping me a prisoner?
30129If this Rose is at a distance, will not my absence be perceived?
30129Is it done?
30129Is it not to their interest to enliven their solitude, Blondine? 30129 Is it so?
30129Madam,said she,"will you give me a place to sleep?
30129Mother,said Violette, in low voice,"do you love me still?"
30129Mother,said Violette,"do you not smell something?"
30129Of what are you thinking, dear queen?
30129Of what consequence is all this, nurse? 30129 Ought I not suffer even more than I do?"
30129Rosalie, do you not hear what I propose? 30129 Rosalie,"said Prudent, with a trembling voice,"I forgot the key of the little garden- house; have you found it?"
30129Shall I go and seek mamma, Violette?
30129Sir,said Ourson, drawing near,"have you any work to give me?"
30129That is true, my good Passerose; but what purpose would your package have served, if my mother and Violette had perished in the flames?
30129The cat? 30129 To punish me!--Do you dare to threaten me?"
30129Violette,repeated the little soft voice of the lark,"do you love Ourson?"
30129Well, my dear Blondine, did you notice the agitation of Bonne- Biche, when you mentioned the Rose? 30129 What are you seeking at the top of this mountain?"
30129What are you seeking in my kingdom?
30129What can be concealed there?
30129What can there be in this casket which is so brilliant?
30129What charm?
30129What do you mean? 30129 What do you want with this key, Rosalie?"
30129What do you wish, my child?
30129What has become of the gazelles who waited upon us so gracefully?
30129What is it, dear Violette? 30129 What is the evening to me or the morning?
30129What is the matter, father?
30129What is the matter?
30129What is the matter?
30129What is the name of your papa?
30129What shall I do now in order to arrive quickly at home? 30129 What shelter do I want?"
30129What sort of work, Ourson?
30129What then, my prince, is this tree which is so carefully concealed?
30129What will become of me, all alone in this vast forest? 30129 Where do you find her so beautiful?
30129Where do you live, my dear little Violette?
30129Where shall we lay her?
30129Who are you and from whence do you come?
30129Who are you and what do you want?
30129Who are you, then, wicked mouse?
30129Who will govern your people?
30129Whose portraits are these, madam?
30129Why did you send for this Rosette, who has such dazzling jewels and makes herself admired and sought after by all these foolish kings and princes? 30129 Why does my sweet and sensible Blondine weep like a bad little girl?"
30129Why has our Ourson the charge of this little girl? 30129 Why so, beautiful Parrot?
30129Why, then, did you summon a fairy to be the godmother of Rosette, when you gave to us only queens for our godmothers?
30129Will you be done talking, wicked bear? 30129 Will you?"
30129With whom have you been talking, Blondine?
30129Would you purchase his life at the price of your happiness?
30129You are going, then, to your father''s court, my dear Rosette?
30129You are willing, then, that I shall embrace you? 30129 You have then a great desire to arrive there, little boy?"
30129You have then a great desire to pass here, my boy? 30129 You know me then?"
30129You say nothing Are you ill, Gourmandinet?
30129You wish it, then, my daughter?
30129You, then, madam, also sent me the Tortoise?
30129Your wife, dear brother? 30129 A large Toad issued from a pile of stones, advanced before her, and said:--What are you seeking?
30129A prisoner?
30129After half an hour''s walk, he said to her:"Violette, you are no longer afraid of poor Ourson, are you?"
30129And Gourmandinet, how will he dare go back to the palace without me?
30129And how could I show my deformity in the midst of the festivals given on your return to your kingdom?
30129And then, what did those awful words of the wicked Parrot signify:"You have caused the destruction of your friends"?
30129Are we in the midst of the Carnival, that a workman ventures upon such a ridiculous masquerade?
30129Are you and your faithful Passerose ready for the journey?"
30129Are you not every day and every hour of the day the consolation and happiness of my life and of that of my excellent mother?"
30129At the last words of the fairy he turned towards Violette, and seeing that she was weeping, he said:--"Why do you weep, my Violette?
30129But if it was some wild animal, would I not hear it roar or howl or shake the house?
30129But what is the matter?
30129But who will take care of my poor mother during my absence?
30129But why does he go there himself every day?
30129By whom is my life threatened?"
30129Can I not have the happiness of hearing you once more?"
30129Do I not owe all my happiness to you?
30129Do you fear that I will blush for you-- that I will not dare to testify before my whole court the tenderness with which you inspire me?
30129Do you not know that I could tear you to pieces with one stroke of my claws?"
30129Does he still weep my absence?
30129Has not the good fairy interfered to prevent the misfortunes which the wicked fairy wished to bring about?"
30129Have you not committed some crime?"
30129Have you not made me gay and happy-- me who was so wretched and so miserable before?
30129Have you not occasioned the death of your friends by the basest ingratitude?
30129Have you saved the casket?"
30129He sprang forward to receive her, offered his arm and said with eagerness:--"Well, dear princess, what did the fairy say to you?
30129He will be scolded, perhaps beaten and all this is my fault because I would leave my carriage to gather lilacs?
30129Her heart prompted her to ask,"But when shall I see my father and sister?"
30129How can I ever testify my profound gratitude, my tender affection?"
30129How can you have changed so in a few days?"
30129How can you seat upon your throne a creature so repulsive as your poor Violette?
30129How is this?
30129How shall I ever pass this pit?"
30129How shall I ever repay him for all I owe him?
30129How shall I manage it?
30129How then can I gather one?"
30129How will you dare to brave the raillery of your subjects and of the neighboring kings?
30129How, if it had so much power, could you keep it so long a prisoner and why can you not put it in prison again?"
30129I have prepared it as you ordered and now will you assist me to pass this precipice?"
30129In fact, who would ever know it?
30129Is any one ever in danger when you are present?
30129Is he happy since he lost me?"
30129Is it possible I may be deceived?
30129Is not this the third time you have saved Violette''s life?"
30129Is this an illusion or have I indeed grown and developed thus during the night?"
30129Now, can you conduct me to my papa, who is certainly in despair because of my absence?"
30129Of what importance is the fate of Blondine to you?
30129Ourson was more and more surprised and asked:"Why are you alone in this forest?"
30129Say, dear Violette, shall it be so?"
30129She opened the window with alacrity and said:"Is it true, my beautiful Parrot, that you bring me news of my dear father?
30129Speak, Violette, do you desire to change your costume?"
30129Speak, madam, what must I do to escape this terrible fate?"
30129Tapping softly upon the door, she said:"Who are you, and what can I do for you?"
30129Tell me, madam, tell me if they yet live and if I may dare hope for the happiness of rejoining them?"
30129That I will conceal what you have done for me or forget the bonds which attach me to you for ever?
30129The Cat said to him:"What are you doing here?
30129The cat brought a vessel of milk to the middle of the room and upset it there?"
30129Was it not Passerose, after all, who got you out of that terrible hole?
30129Was it to humiliate us, my father, that you called us to the court at this time?"
30129What answer do you give me?"
30129What are you seeking beyond my wall?"
30129What can I do for you?"
30129What can it be?
30129What does this little house contain which frightens you so much?"
30129What is he doing and how is he?"
30129What kind of work----?"
30129What possible danger can I encounter in that lovely place and under her protection?"
30129What shall we do?"
30129What will King Ferocious, your husband, say if he should ever discover us?"
30129What will become of me now that I am alone and desolate in the world?"
30129What will become of us?"
30129What will my poor papa think when I do not return?
30129What would be her fate, if they should close their doors against her?
30129When his eye fell upon him he did not finish his phrase; his eyes flashed with rage and he stammered out:--"What foolery is this?
30129When may I demand your hand of the king your father?"
30129Where is Brunette?"
30129Where is the queen?
30129Who can have caused you this great grief?
30129Who, then, miss, has given you all these beautiful things?"
30129Why am I here?
30129Why are you so pale and thin?
30129Why do you seek us now?
30129Why have you not given to us your most superb jewels and your richest robes?
30129Will you make my whole life wretched by forcing me to accept this sacrifice?
30129Will you not be so kind as to allow me to enter and pass the night with you?"
30129Will you now keep your promise and pass me over to the other side?"
30129Wo n''t little cub give his hand to Violette?
30129Would she indeed learn the fate of her dear friends at the palace?
30129Would these kind friends ever receive her, ever pardon her?
30129[ Illustration:"_ What are you seeking little one?_"]"What are you seeking, little one?"
30129[ Illustration:"_ What are you seeking little one?_"]"What are you seeking, little one?"
30129and what has brought you here?"
30129by what fatality did I forget it?"
30129cried Blondine,"my poor friends, Bonne- Biche and Beau- Minon, why can I not atone by my death for the sufferings I have caused them?"
30129if it has indeed been in my power to render you some little service, have you not changed my whole existence?
30129said Blondine, in an agony of grief,"shall I never again see my father whom I love so tenderly?
30129said she,"why is my dear father alone?
30129said she,"why will not Bonne- Biche allow me to walk in this beautiful forest?
30129said the Doctor;"and how is it possible that you have gained this summit?"
30129she said to herself,"in order to punish me for all I have made my father and my cousin endure?
30129tell me, what can I do to prove my gratitude?"
30129what have you done?
30129what shall I do?"
30129when, my dear Rosette, will you permit me to ask your hand of your father?
30129who can ever love you well enough to deliver you from this horrible curse?
30129who is she?
30129why was she alone in the wood?
30129why will not the fairy permit me to make this exchange, which is allowed to another who may love you?
30129you are no longer afraid of me?"
29939Ah,said the ape,"is it so high that it outranks all other dignities?"
29939And have you come?
29939And how do you know this?
29939And what have you done during all those long years?
29939And where do you wish to go now?
29939And where is Molo?
29939And where is the heartless husband?
29939And who might he be?
29939And why should we not celebrate,answered his wife,"since we have now become emperor and empress?"
29939Are all the stars in their places?
29939Are you able to walk?
29939But she is up in Heaven,said the Herd Boy,"and how can I get there?"
29939But what are rain- sheep?
29939But what shall I do now?
29939But where is your daughter?
29939Can one gain eternal life by means of them?
29939Can one gain eternal life in this way?
29939Can one secure eternal life by means of it?
29939Could you present him to me some time?
29939Did all go well?
29939Did not grandmother tell us that we must save no black- headed human beings?
29939Did you kill any one?
29939Do you imagine,he told her,"that because your parents can visit human beings with misfortune, that a real man would be afraid of a frog?"
29939Do you wish to marry some one else, seeing that he has been missing so long?
29939Has she also invited me?
29939Have you enough?
29939Have you seen the girl in the red coat?
29939How could we claim such high descent?
29939How many are there of you brothers?
29939How many did you slay?
29939How so do our lines not make sense?
29939I am the man,answered Dung, alarmed,"how do you happen to know me?"
29939I am the third,he answered,"and you?"
29939May one sit down here?
29939Now just tell me what tricks you are up to? 29939 O youth, whence do you come, that you dare to take our clothes?"
29939Shall I teach you the sciences?
29939Then, if you are no blessed god, how comes it you sing that divine song?
29939Well, what are these evils?
29939Were any fields damaged?
29939What are the sciences?
29939What can be the matter with the horse?
29939What does that teach?
29939What is the way of repose?
29939What is to be done?
29939What rank has this office?
29939What sort of a god is he?
29939When is the great flood coming?
29939Where are you going?
29939Where is your home?
29939Who is Tsian Tang?
29939Why are you making such a noise?
29939Why are you so sad? 29939 Why did you not tell me at once?"
29939Why do you ask me how I am getting along?
29939Why do you not go along yourself and hunt up your father?
29939Will it give one eternal life?
29939Will you not rest a bit?
29939A leaden bullet is no bird, the stable- boy does his work outside, would you call him into the room?
29939After they had driven a good ways, they asked:"Will we soon get to grandmother''s house?"
29939And now, who are you?
29939And the emperor said:"What shall we do?"
29939And the father said:"Are those not my daughters''voices?"
29939And then I must ask you whether there is anything else you can do, aside from playing your tricks of transformation?"
29939And to his apes he said:"What should be done?"
29939And what are you doing before my door?"
29939And when he entered the hall, an old lady with white hair and bent back, leaning on a cane, came forward and asked:"What man is this?"
29939And when the fire had heated him thoroughly, he suddenly opened his mouth-- and can you imagine what came out of it?
29939And when they saw that the struggle had still not come to an end she said to Laotzse:"How would it be if we helped Yang Oerlang a little?
29939And who are you, tell me that, who instead of grieving for yourself, are grieving for others?
29939Are there gods who teach men to fear their wives?
29939Astonished, he inquired:"Who are you?
29939At once a warrior emerged from the waves of the sea, and asked:"Whence come you, honored guest?"
29939Before long one of the saint''s disciples came and opened the door and said:"What sort of a beast is it that is making such a noise?"
29939But his brother was jealous of him, and said to him, harshly:"Where did you manage to steal the money?"
29939But is your hat genuine?"
29939But since a ruler has already arisen to reign over it, what is there to keep me in this country?
29939But the ancient was already there, took him by the hand and said:"Are you back already to where you were?
29939But the sorcerer answered:"Did not my ship turn turtle at sea, and yet you try to deceive me?"
29939But what magic power have you at your disposal, that you were able to get here?"
29939Can you fly already?"
29939Can you prevent it?"
29939Do the gods slaughter cattle like men?"
29939Do you know of any one who might answer?"
29939Do you not want to tell your old slave about it?"
29939Dschou Bau asked him:"Who are you?"
29939Dung asked him:"Did anything out of the ordinary happen when Sir Wang died?"
29939Dung was agreeable and asked:"But what really brings you here?"
29939Full of joy he leaped up and said:"How is it you have come back to me?"
29939Have I no halo which makes you fear me, instead of going walking with me?"
29939Have you any other income aside from it?"
29939Have you come from the castle of the Lady in the Moon, or the Jade Spring of the Queen- Mother of the West?"
29939Have you heard anything regarding a hero who is supposed to be in this neighborhood?"
29939Have you no kinsfolk who will hasten to help you in your need, that you are compelled to turn to a mortal man?"
29939Have you still not forgotten your pain?"
29939He asked him:"Where is Old Dschang''s country house?"
29939He asked them:"How many trees in all are there in the garden?"
29939He belonged to the butterfly dancers, said he, and asked casually:"Are you sick because of Rose of Evening?"
29939He called Sun Wu Kung up to him and asked:"What progress have you made with your art?
29939He called out to his Master:"What does all this mean?"
29939He was angry and scolded them, saying:"Why did you disobey my command?"
29939Her father asked angrily:"Why did you throw the ball into the beggar''s hands?"
29939His foster- mother was frightened, and asked:"Where have you been all year long?"
29939His hand is not a foot long; how could I help but leap out of it?"
29939How are you?"
29939How can I honorably live again with such a man as you?"
29939How can it possess a god''s power?
29939How can you be of aid to him?
29939How can you expect to rule here as Lord of the Heavens?
29939How could the light have gone out?"
29939How could you arrange our marriage?"
29939How dare you claim that you have left my hand?
29939How did you happen to meet my sister?"
29939How does that happen?"
29939How is it that another one comes now?"
29939How is it with my merit?"
29939How is it you do not return to us until now?"
29939How many years would you have to pass before you could attain the dignity he has gained?
29939How would it be if we were to buy steel and iron and have those smiths weld weapons for us?"
29939How would it be possible to win into it?"
29939IV WHO WAS THE SINNER?
29939In she came, much excited, and began:"Have I ever omitted, as is right and proper, to visit you morning and evening?
29939In the morning the father was very angry with the children, and said:"Who wants to go along to grandmother?"
29939Is it possible for you to walk through the water?"
29939Is it possible that she may be up there?"
29939Is that not better than dying of hunger as a poor scholar?"
29939Liu I asked:"What is this place called?"
29939Liu I asked:"Why should the matter be kept from him?"
29939Liu I went on to ask:"Why is he interested in the sacred book of the fire?"
29939Ma asked:"Did not a man with two pails of water on his shoulder just go in?"
29939Mosu bowed with lowered head and said:"But what have I done?"
29939Moved to tears, he asked:"O my father, why are you here?"
29939Notscha, however, came to them and said:"Why do you weep?
29939On the way he met the Bare- Foot God and asked him:"Where are you going?"
29939Once he was asked:"About how old might this tortoise be?"
29939Round the Blue Pass snow towers high, And who will lead the horse aright?
29939Said Sun Wu Kung to him:"To whom do you belong, little one?
29939Said Sun Wu Kung:"What does magic teach one?"
29939Said the Great Saint:"And who are all those whom the Queen- Mother has invited?"
29939Said the wood- chopper:"I am only a workman; why do you call me divine master?"
29939Softly he said to his friend:"What are the three river- gods called?"
29939Suddenly an ancient man stood before him, leaning on a staff, who said:"What do you lack since you complain so?"
29939Suddenly he saw a creature rise out of the waves, on whose back sat an armed man who cried in a loud voice:"Who has slain my Triton?"
29939Sun Wu Kung answered:"If you do not know me then why did you send for me and have me dragged to this place?
29939Sun Wu Kung grew very angry and said:"What sort of a devil is this who dares be so impudent?"
29939Sun Wu Kung shouted at him:"Accursed devil, where are your eyes, that you can not see the venerable Sun?"
29939Sun Wu Kung snorted and said:"Who are you, who dare to speak to me?"
29939Surely that is enough to entitle me to be the Lord of the Heavens?"
29939Tell me, pray, whence you come?"
29939The Emperor said:"What do you know?"
29939The King of the Apes said:"Where do these three kinds of beings live?"
29939The Lord of the Heavens asked:"Then this hairy face with the pointed lips is Sun Wu Kung?"
29939The ancient man said:"How much money would you need in order to live in all comfort?"
29939The ancient seized his arm and said:"Where are you going?
29939The ape leaped out, and when he saw the powerful hero with the three- tined sword standing before him he asked:"And who may you be?"
29939The cow said:"Do you see that old willow- tree there on the shore?
29939The eight boys changed into old men again and said:"Do you wish to go to school to us, O King?
29939The eight old men smiled and said:"Oh, and are we too old to suit you?
29939The giant called out harshly:"Who are you?
29939The great king nodded, looked around and asked:"Are all the folk of the Wo- Me hills present?"
29939The inn- keeper received him with the words:"Are you Master Dung, and have you come from the bay of Kaiutschou?"
29939The king asked:"Are you not a living human being?
29939The latter cried out:"How are you?
29939The sea- dragon cried:"Who is disturbing me here in my own kingdom?"
29939The ten Princes of the Dead were frightened, bowed before him and asked:"Who are you?"
29939The wise man asked:"And have you still in your possession the stone which compels the dragons to do your will?"
29939The woman answered:"How could I use you as a stranger?
29939Then Sun Wu Kung was frightened and asked:"Is there any means of protection against these dangers?"
29939Then he asked them:"Whom have I really the honor of entertaining?
29939Then he looked at the merchant and asked:"Why is your necklace so short?"
29939Then he questioned them further:"Have you the dragon- brain vapor?"
29939Then he said in a deep voice:"Where are you?
29939Then he saw the merchant and asked:"From whence does he hail?"
29939Then some one asked:"If you have pears then why do you not eat your own?"
29939Then the Master asked:"Shall I teach you the way of magic?"
29939Then the apes opened their mouths and stuck out their tongues, and said:"Father, how is it possible for you to carry that heavy thing?"
29939Then the daughters asked:"Mother, what are you eating?"
29939Then the fox said:"How about it?
29939Then the girls within called out:"Who is knocking at our door?"
29939Then the soldier showed her the rope and said with a laugh:"Is this the thing you mean?
29939Then the woman asked:"And where did you pass on your way?"
29939Then there were doubts and questionings:"But the river- god lives a thousand miles away from here, how does he get to this place?"
29939They sat down beside each other and the stranger asked:"What have you to eat?"
29939They thanked him and began to flatter him:"With your power and wisdom, great king, why should you have to serve the Lord of the Heavens?
29939What are you doing here?"
29939What are you waiting to learn, then?"
29939What difference does it make?"
29939What do you mean by carrying on in such an unfitting manner?"
29939What do you wish me to change myself into?"
29939What has brought you here?"
29939What has the Lord of the Heavens accomplished that entitles him to remain eternally on his throne?
29939What is the punishment you wish to lay upon me?"
29939What is this one ear worth to you?
29939What need was there for him to lure me into his heaven to feed horses?
29939What need was there for the body to go along?
29939What shall I do with it?"
29939What should be done?"
29939What sort of a creature must I be?
29939What sort of a title is that?"
29939When Sky O''Dawn had died, the Emperor called the astrologer to him and asked:"Did you know Sky O''Dawn?"
29939When he reached his house he asked:"Who is weeping here so pitifully?"
29939When he reached land he saw a youth who asked him with astonishment:"Are you not from the Middle Kingdom?"
29939When the rice was nearly boiled his sister- in- law said:"Wo n''t your leg be injured?"
29939When they admitted that they had not, the wise man said:"How then will you compel the dragons to yield their treasure?"
29939Where are you?
29939Which way shall I teach you?"
29939While the daughters replied:"Is that not our father''s voice?"
29939While they were at table Sun Wu Kung asked accidentally:"Stablemaster?
29939Why are you not asleep?
29939Why did you have to marry her to such a wrinkled old gardener?
29939Why do you have to turn yourself into a pine- tree?
29939Why do you speak about my having been gone a year?"
29939Why is this?"
29939Why not let me go instead?
29939Why should I continue to live?"
29939Why should a gentleman''s beautiful daughter condescend to marry a poor old gardener like yourself?
29939Why should he withdraw from you the enjoyment of the incense?"
29939Why suddenly grow so angry about it?"
29939Will you not come home with me?"
29939Will you not speak one little word to save me?
29939With tears in his eyes Sun Wu Kung asked him:"But where shall I go?"
29939Wo n''t you say one little word to me?
29939Yet the Sea of Dungting is long and broad, and how am I to find him?"
34852Alas, alas,sorrowed the Queen,"dear daughter, is this all true to you?"
34852And what do you think of that?
34852And what is it to be moon- struck?
34852Are you not happy now?
34852At her birth I gave your daughter love for my gift; now it is hers, will you let her keep it?
34852But how can I?
34852But what are they for?
34852But where else can I go to?
34852But, dear little master and benefactor,cried the Cockatrice,"what did you wake me up for?"
34852Can not you be happy here with me?
34852Can you ever be happy again in the old way?
34852Can you tell me,said he,"if this be the way to the fairies?"
34852Celestiality, may I speak?
34852Did no one pass, just then?
34852Did you see what a big one it was?
34852Do it again?
34852Do you hear?
34852Do you see any green in my eye?
34852Do you think we are going to believe that?
34852Does the sea come in all the way under the castle?
34852For whom, then?
34852Have I seen all the bright world?
34852Here? 34852 Here?"
34852How came this?
34852How can he earn a human one?
34852How shall he pay me? 34852 I would like to get you out, of course-- but can I?"
34852Is he dead already?
34852Is it such a little place?
34852Is there any place left for me?
34852Mother,cried the Princess, clinging to her with entreaty,"is all the world blind but me?"
34852Must n''t do what?
34852Now are you happy?
34852O Wio- wani, dear master,he cried,"are you there?"
34852O silly little mother, how can I fall into a puddle that is not large enough for my two feet to stand in?
34852Oh, Wio- wani, were you there all the while?
34852Only by exchange,said she,"can he get back his human shape; and who is there so poor that he would willingly lose his own form to become a bird?
34852Shall you not want to run?
34852Sleep or wake,said she as she parted from him;"if truly you have no wish to kill the white doe, why should you wake?
34852Snow?
34852So you have lost your cap, neighbour? 34852 So,"said Little Sister,"you are there, are you, Brother?
34852Speak,replied Wio- wani;"what is it?"
34852The Emperor, was he not the very flower of fools not to follow when you told him?
34852They have carried you away?
34852They have spared him,she said to herself:"why should not I?"
34852Think?
34852Wait for what?
34852What did you do that for?
34852What do you think of that for a discovery?
34852What fine piece of burglary is this?
34852What goes on, then?
34852What have I done that he comes to the very door of our home and passes by, though the moon shines in and shows it him?
34852What have I done to myself?
34852What have you there?
34852What is the boy up to?
34852What is your will, master mortal?
34852What more can I do for you?
34852What would you have of me?
34852When must you die?
34852Where are you, Fair Brother? 34852 Where are you, my children?"
34852Where have you been?
34852Where is it?
34852Where is the king''s son, then?
34852Where may you be going to, fair sir?
34852Where shall I go?
34852Where shall I go?
34852Where to so fast?
34852Where were you,he asked,"last night?
34852Who dares to say''we''?
34852Why can not you send them down to the poultry yard to be hatched?
34852Why do you weep, my Beautiful?
34852Why have we not wings?
34852Why have you come here?
34852Why is Fair Brother lame? 34852 Why is his heart breaking?"
34852Why is that?
34852Why not?
34852Why,he wondered,"have they gone out together in the middle of the night?"
34852Will not God,he said,"who has given us no happiness in this life, save in each other''s help and companionship, allow us to end our days in peace?"
34852You have beautiful hair,said the woman;"will you let that go?"
34852You see this birch- tree, with its silver skin?
34852_ I_ do with_ you_?
34852( And the Prince said in his heart,"Where can I find that?")
34852("And what is sorrow?"
34852("And where,"said the Prince,"can I meet with that wonder?")
34852A little while after she said again,"What have you there, now, little daughter?"
34852A young girl looked out of the hut;"What do you want?"
34852Again in the darkness she heard the bird cry,"Why do you weep, Japonel?"
34852Ah, Fair Brother, Fair Brother, I have given you feet; why have you so used me?"
34852All the other birds do without them-- why should not we?"
34852And all the way he said to himself,"Shall I put fire under the Cockatrice once more, and make him shake the town into ruins?
34852And as he disappeared among the trees, she cried after him,"How will you know the way, since you were never here before?
34852And coming a little nearer,"Good dame,"called Japonel,"what is it you have found there, that you gaze at so hard?"
34852And what, and what will the Queen your mother say?"
34852And who is there so poor that he would willingly give up his human form to become a bird?"
34852And why do you never go and bring me flowers or sing me the song of the birds?"
34852As Toonie drew near, the other turned about and said to him,"Can you tell me, neighbour, if this be the way to the fairies?"
34852As he drew back, the Fish said:"Why should you kill me, who wish to live?"
34852At midnight she raised her head, saying,"Sisters, are you awake?"
34852At midnight the eight peahens lifted their heads, and said,"Sister, why did you fail last night?"
34852At that there was a look in his face that made her say,"You_ are_ happy, are you not?"
34852But her husband answered,"Good wife, why should it trouble you?
34852But her mother hung sobbing upon her neck,"O, my darling, my beautiful,"she wept,"does your heart belong for ever to this grey bird?"
34852Do you know that you are ruining my complexion?"
34852Do you think I could do it now?"
34852Does the world contain any grass?"
34852Every day her mother said,"Daughter of mine, are you happy?"
34852Fair Brother said,"Little Sister, what have you done with your hair in which you used to fetch home the wind?
34852Has he no feet?"
34852Have I not you to make me so?"
34852Have I saved my son''s life by taking away his heart?"
34852Have you our brother''s heart for us?"
34852His wife hung upon his hand,"Are we not happy enough,"she asked,"as it is?
34852How can I peck out your heart?"
34852How can I peck out your heart?"
34852How is it?"
34852How long does this city of yours mean to stay there?
34852How long have you been here?"
34852In the morning the Princess was gone, and the two children when they woke looked at each other and said:"Did we dream last night?"
34852Is he not goodly to look upon?
34852Is his heart ours?"
34852Is it not a spike with a green light at the end of it?"
34852Is it there that you dare to go trespassing; into a picture that I purchased for my own pleasure and profit, and not at all for yours?
34852Is this beast of a grub of a boy thinking to make himself a painter and cut me out of my reputation and prosperity?"
34852Must it be silk, or velvet, or satin; should it be enriched with brocade, or with gems, or sewn thick with pearls?
34852Nothing will they learn or do, but stand all day flapping their arms up and down, and saying,''Where are our wings, where are our wings?''
34852Once more he heard in dreams someone come tapping at his heart, and this time his heart said,"Who is there?"
34852See you where my love is gone?
34852So one day he said to the old faggot- maker,"How is it that one gets to see a fairy?"
34852Tell us your name?"
34852The Prince said to her,"What is that little key that you wear always hung round your neck?"
34852The king''s son, stumbling along through the forest under the bare boughs, thought,"Even here where shall I hide?
34852The woman said to her,"Why is it that you weep so?"
34852The young Jackdaw called:"Little wings, what have you lost?
34852Their lamentable cry touched the Prince''s heart;"Where,"he asked himself,"have I heard such sorrow before?"
34852Then Freedling said,"How shall I know that you will return: and what name shall I call you by?"
34852Then the Prince said,"Beautiful Green Bird, what have you brought me?"
34852Then the bird said,"Why have you not done as the birds do?
34852Then the king''s son stopped and said,"Little brother, do you so much wish to be king?"
34852Then thought Japonel,"How should I look now, who am fair and in the full bloom of my youth?
34852They offered him the sea- life: why should he be drowned and die?
34852They said to her,"Have you blood upon your beak?
34852To- day we are hungry; what can be more good for us than a meal which will give us strength for the morrow, which is the new year?"
34852Was it going to come true?
34852What are you going to do with me now?"
34852What can you do with it?"
34852What further happiness can we want?"
34852What harm can come if I do look once?
34852What is there in these quiet parts that can harm her?
34852What will you give me in exchange?"
34852When his wife was not by, the hunter took the two children upon his knee, and said,"Tell me, what was the white doe like?
34852Whence was it, then, that the roses so shook and sobbed?
34852Where have you lost yourself?"
34852Who is this traveller who comes once a year, like a thief in the night, and crosses without asking me to ferry him over?"
34852Who tells me he''s only a nightingale painted black?"
34852Who will go down and peck out his heart?
34852Why is it that you weep so,"they said again,"now when deliverance is so near?"
34852Why should he ever go home again?
34852Why should he go back at all?
34852Why should we return?"
34852Would not that be fine?"
34852[ Illustration]"What is it for?
34852and did you notice the bend of his neck, and the exceeding length of his legs, and the stretch of his grey wings as he flew?
34852and what way did she go?"
34852cried he,"is that where you get your training?
34852poor sisters,"he thought,"have I found you at last; and are all these sorrows brought upon you for me?"
34852said his wife,"whatever brought you back?"
34852said she; but whether they were speaking of their own hearts or of each other''s, who can tell?
34852they cried,"What have you done?"
34852thought he;"what serpent have I been harbouring in my bosom?
34852wailed the Cockatrice;"may n''t I?
34852what did she do?
34852which of us shall be first?"
34852which shall be first?"
128A man or a genius?
128Ali Cogia,he said,"when you brought me the vase of olives did I ever touch it?"
128Amina,I exclaimed in astonishment,"is that the way you eat rice at home?
128And how come you here?
128And suppose,answered the dervish,"that your enemies are invisible, how then?"
128And what can they be?
128And what is that?
128And where do you go now?
128And you,she asked, addressing another,"were you born blind of one eye?"
128Are you not a debtor of the King of the Ebony Island?
128Are you quite well now?
128As for her looking a little younger than we do, what does that matter? 128 As you are so kind,"I said,"tell me, I pray you, what are the virtues of this ointment?"
128But how do you know this, my daughter?
128But if he really is a stranger to me,she replied,"why should I tell a lie and cause his death?"
128But what have I done to you?
128But what is the matter with the princess that she needs the dervish''s prayers?
128But why not?
128But why,cried the king in a burst of fear and anger,"why did you not call him back when you saw him disappearing?"
128But, bird,objected the princess,"you know how dearly we love each other; will not all this spoil our friendship?"
128But, madam,inquired the Persian,"what harm is there in that?"
128But, my son,urged Fatima,"you surely do not wish to be the last of a race which has reigned so long and so gloriously over this kingdom?"
128But, your Majesty,said I,"dare I ask if this law applies to foreigners also?"
128But,said the merchant,"how can I have killed your son?
128But,thought he,"how shall I find my way back?
128By what accident do you come here?
128Ca n''t you see for yourself that it can belong to nobody but a Barmecide?
128Can you possibly understand what the Sultan saw in that little cat,said one to the other,"for him to be so fascinated by her?"
128Charming Maimoune,asked Danhasch,"may I inquire who and what is the prince of whom you speak?"
128Charming Persian,answered Noureddin,"how could I be guilty of such baseness?
128Do you call this a simple country house?
128Do you imagine that I should appropriate this treasure? 128 Do you know it is a whole year''s journey from here?
128Do you know this lake?
128Do you not know,was the answer,"that the son of the grand- vizir is to marry the Sultan''s daughter to- night?"
128Do you see that mountain?
128Do you think I can tell you while I am shut up in here?
128Do you wish him to regain his proper shape?
128Does he want to take my son from me?
128Forgive my ignorance,he asked,"what is this palace you speak of?"
128Good- day,he answered;"is it possible that you do not recognise me?"
128Have you lost your senses?
128Have you not heard of Prince Aladdin''s palace,was the reply,"the greatest wonder of the world?
128How can I be better,answered the Sultan, imitating the language of the Ethiopians,"when I can never sleep for the cries and groans of your husband?"
128How can I thank you for your goodness towards a stranger, and for what you have done? 128 How did this hatchet and those shoes get here?"
128How did you escape?
128How do you like this bread?
128How have you made up your mind,he asked,"to sacrifice your own daughter to me?"
128How long do you require?
128How should I, when I never saw her before?
128How should I?
128I gave you the key of my shop and you put it yourself where you liked, and did you not find it in exactly the same spot and in the same state? 128 I have just freed you; have you already forgotten that?"
128I think it was you who judged the case of Ali Cogia and the merchant last night? 128 I?
128Is it possible,he cried,"that while I am in Bagdad, a man like you should be starving?
128Is it true, gentlemen,asked Zobeida, drawing herself up,"that you have charged this man to put me that question?"
128Is it your pleasure to rise?
128Is there any other verdict possible?
128Is this,continued Zobeida, growing more angry every moment,"is this the return you make for the hospitality I have shown you?
128It would be an excellent thing to do,returned the grand- vizir,"but how do you propose to accomplish it?"
128Ladies,I replied,"what is the meaning of these strange words-- I pray you to tell me?"
128Madam,replied the slave,"who can help laughing to see an old fool offering to exchange fine new lamps for old ones?"
128Most likely,said the prince;"but now that you are here I am glad of the opportunity to ask you where is the lady who slept in this room last night?"
128My good man, where do you come from?
128Oh, madam,replied he,"how can you desire me to quit you in the state in which I am?
128Once again, my father,said Scheherazade,"will you grant me what I ask?"
128Since I must die,he said,"before I choose the manner of my death, I conjure you on your honour to tell me if you really were in that vase?"
128Sire,answered the princess,"do you see that cage hanging in one of the windows of the saloon?
128Sire,she said to her father,"what can you be thinking of to summon me like this into the presence of a man?"
128So, captain,said I,"the merchant who owned those bales was called Sindbad?"
128Tell me, madam, I pray you,he said at last,"how this marvellous tree came into your garden?
128Tell me,he cried,"where is this wicked woman, and where is the miserable object of her affection, whom she just manages to keep alive?"
128Tell me,he said,"how long can olives be kept so as to be pleasant eating?"
128Tell me,said he,"can you shoot with a bow?"
128Tell me,she cried,"where is the young man I love so dearly, and who slept near me last night?"
128That vase could not contain one of your feet even, and how could your whole body go in? 128 Well,"asked the Sultan,"can you tell me what must be done to disenchant the young prince?"
128Well,asked the king as soon as he appeared,"and how did you find my son?"
128What are you doing?
128What are you doing?
128What are you thinking of, sir,exclaimed some;"why expose yourself to certain death?
128What business is that of yours?
128What can he have done to deserve to be treated like this?
128What crimes have I committed, your majesty?
128What danger can there be?
128What did Imma do to Ateca?
128What do you mean?
128What do you mean?
128What does a dervish want with riches like that?
128What does it all mean?'' 128 What had the vizir done,"said the Greek king,"to merit the punishment?"
128What has put such a thing into your head? 128 What have I done, uncle?"
128What have you been doing?
128What have you done?
128What is it?
128What is the matter, my sister?
128What is this you are saying, great genius? 128 What news?"
128What would you have, Sindbad?
128What, are you still so obstinate?
128What, you are dying of hunger?
128When you arrived here did you not sit down on the ground?
128Where am I?
128Where have you hidden your musicians?
128Where is my palace and my daughter?
128Who are you, my lord?
128Who are you? 128 Who is this imbecile?"
128Why are you so drowsy?
128Why are you so resolved upon your own ruin?
128Why, bird, who ever heard of such a dish? 128 Why, what are you doing here?"
128Why,cried she,"was it you my father wished me to marry?
128Will your highness permit me to do as my sister asks?
128You condemn yourself by your refusal,said the genius; then turning to me, he added,"and you, do you not know her?"
128You suppose him to have perished then?
128You travelled,I said,"and what did you gain?"
128Aladdin''s mother, when she came to herself, said:"Whence comes this splendid feast?"
128Ali Cogia,"he added,"have you got the vase with you?"
128And did you do it because your appetite was so small, or did you wish to count the grains so that you might never eat more than a certain number?
128And other voices replied,"Where is he, mamma, that we may eat him at once, as we are very hungry?"
128And supposing that I had the strength, why should I put an innocent man to death?"
128Approaching my brother with an angry countenance he exclaimed,"What business have you here?"
128Are not the heads you see exposed on the town wall sufficient warning?
128Are you ill?
128As soon as my wife heard me speak this she at once cried out,"What are you doing, husband?
128But how can he or any one else know what takes place in this house?
128But how would it be if he were first to marry?
128But may I ask the purpose of your question?"
128But putting him aside she addressed the others a second time, saying,"Answer me; who are you?
128But what am I saying?
128But what dangers can there be in the adventure which courage and a good sword can not meet?"
128But when I have related it, will you grant me also the third part of the merchant''s punishment?"
128But, good brother, you, who are so kind and charitable, and know the secrets of such vast learning, have you nothing that will give me back my sight?"
128But, indeed, I have no inclination to change my state, for where could I find so happy a life amidst so many beautiful and delightful surroundings?
128Can you doubt any longer?"
128Did you ever say anything about them before?
128Did you not read the inscription over the door?
128Do n''t you remember now?"
128Do you not think it is a most marvellous one?
128Giving him one last embrace, I observed accidentally,"What are you going to do with that little box of ointment?
128Hagi Hassan, then closing the door upon her, began to offer her for sale-- calling out:"Who will bid 4,000 gold pieces for the Persian slave?"
128Has my husband not told you that you are destined for the king?"
128Have you ever heard of anyone who has suffered more, or had more narrow escapes than I have?
128Have you forgotten the one condition on which you were allowed to enter the house?
128He lay quite still, and in a moment he heard a voice saying,"Can you guess whom this man is that we have saved from death?"
128He rubbed it, and the genie appeared, saying:"What is thy will?"
128He was thunderstruck, and turning to the vizir said:"What sayest thou?
128He went up to her and, imitating the voice of a woman, he said,"Do you happen to have a pair of scales you could lend me?
128How am I to know that she will not be proud, passionate, contemptuous, and recklessly extravagant, or that her disposition will in any way suit mine?"
128How were you driven to commit such a terrible crime?"
128I cried,"what is happening?"
128I have a presentiment that Ali Cogia will return, and what will he think of you?
128I have come to ask whether you would do me the favour to keep this vase of olives for me till I come back?"
128If he wished to take my life, why did he cure me?
128Immediately an enormous and frightful genie rose out of the earth, saying:"What wouldst thou with me?
128Is it not just that I should now enjoy a life of ease and tranquillity?"
128Is it possible that you take me, my lord, for one of those miserable creatures who force their way into houses to beg for alms?
128Is not this hatchet yours, and these shoes?"
128Is this not a most marvellous tale?
128It is now for you to say if we deserve mercy or punishment; life or death?"
128Must I go up hill or down?
128My own?
128Now what do you say?"
128Of what use would my alms be if I treated you so ill?"
128Or has anything happened?"
128Ought I not to bestow the princess on one who values her at such a price?"
128Shall I cure the princess in her own presence, or shall I do it from here without seeing her?"
128She came near his couch and said,"Are you better to- day, my dear slave?
128She struck one of the fish with her rod,"Fish, fish,"said she,"are you doing your duty?"
128She then returned to the cage, and said:"Bird, there is still something else, where shall I find the Singing Tree?"
128Should he follow his father into the palace, and there give reins to his despair?
128Still, Amina, it seems to me that there be some among them as sweet to the taste as the flesh of a corpse?"
128Suddenly Zobeida turned round, and seeing their excitement she said,"What is the matter-- what are you all discussing so earnestly?"
128The Sultan sent her mother to her, who said:"How comes it, child, that you will not speak to your father?
128The lady who had led him hither stood watching him with amusement, till the porteress exclaimed,"Why do n''t you come in, my sister?
128The poor man was dumb with horror, then, lifting up his hands, he exclaimed,"Can my old friend really have committed such a crime?"
128The prince recognised her at once, and, embracing her with the utmost tenderness, cried,"Ah, how can I thank the king for this delightful surprise?"
128Then Maimoune turning to the genie said:"Well, are you satisfied that my prince surpasses your princess?
128Then a voice came from the vase which said to the fisherman,"Well, unbelieving fisherman, here I am in the vase; do you believe me now?"
128Then he said to my brother,"Why do n''t you wash your hands too?"
128Then, turning to his attendants who stood round, he said to them,"What reward shall I give to the man who has restored me my daughter?"
128Thus Sindbad ended the story of his seventh and last voyage, and turning to Hindbad he added:"Well, my friend, and what do you think now?
128Was it by accident that one window was left unfinished?"
128We have waited for your awakening; tell us now whence you come and where you were going by that dangerous way?"
128What do you think about it?"
128What do you want?"
128What has happened?"
128What has he done that you should give him this pleasant life-- what have I done to deserve so hard a fate?"
128What is its name?"
128What was he to do?
128What would you say if you could see the prince I have just been looking at and whose beauty is really transcendent?
128Whatever befalls me I can not forbear asking,` Why you daub your faces with black, and how it is you are all blind of one eye?''"
128Where did you get them from?"
128Where is the lamp?"
128Who are you?"
128Who knows what this remedy, with which he has cured you, may not in time have a bad effect on you?"
128Whose is this palace, and why is it thus empty?"
128Why not wait another year and then inform the Prince in the midst of the assembled council that the good of the state demands his marriage?
128Why should I not build a raft and trust myself to its swiftly flowing waters?
128Will you grant it to me?"
128Will you tell some of them to me?"
128You do not belong to the house?"
128and what is the world coming to?
128answered the king,"what is to hinder the horse from descending straight into the sea, or dashing him to pieces on the rocks?"
128asked Prince Bahman;"why are you so grave?
128asked the genius,"and did you not take some dates from your wallet, and whilst eating them did not you throw the stones about?"
128cried the genius,"is not this man your lover?"
128exclaimed the lady,"you ask me that, knowing that my son Noureddin has been alone with you?"
128he asked the princess;"are they up in the air, or under the earth?
128he cried,"do you know me?"
128he cried,"is it not enough that I have done everything for you, but you must command me to bring my master and hang him up in the midst of this dome?
128he cried,"you do not wake at the signs of Camaralzaman''s love?
128he exclaimed,"how would it be possible for any man, much less a woman, to enter this room at night without walking over your slave on the threshold?
128he exclaimed,"why did I not wait for the light?
128he exclaimed;"where is the spring, and how do you make the fountain rise so high?
128replied Maimoune,"what harm can you do me?
128said the king;"is that wretch still alive?
128she exclaimed,"what is the meaning of this?
128she said in a bewildered manner;"and how did I get here?"
128they asked,"and did the gardener come to tell you he had found a treasure?"
128what shall I say to the Sultan?
128why should you kill me?"
36977A lord?
36977Alas, good dame, how can I hope to succeed in this endeavour?
36977An ideal?
36977And do you?
36977And so you are going to be a nun, my child?
36977And so you do not like society?
36977And thou hast lived here all thy life?
36977And why should that knowledge distress thee?
36977And will you sit for my picture?
36977Are they ever different, fair sir?
36977But ere thou goest, tell me, wouldst thou be very unhappy if I never came to thee again?
36977But it makes you sad the thought of going?
36977But since thou hast asked my father for my hand, and he hath given his consent, I may tell thee all I feel, may I not?
36977But when the North Wind finds that thou hast parted with thy precious charge what will he do?
36977But why place it outside the casement, good my lord? 36977 Delighted to meet you, Lady Mercy; will you dance?"
36977Did n''t it make any impression? 36977 Did they say they would object?"
36977Do the stars exist, my good lord, or the sun or the roses?
36977Do you think you will be happy?
36977Does your sister sit?
36977Dost think thou canst be happy here?
36977Foolish girl, is not thy betrothal a great occasion? 36977 Genius?"
36977Good Ulric, hast never heard of Love? 36977 Good minstrel, who art thou?"
36977Good my lord, how long wilt thou be gone?
36977Good my lord, why doth this last shadow look so different from all the rest?
36977Hast ever seen the Wind?
36977Have you any longings that might be a shadow on your nun''s life, my child? 36977 In what way is he not true?"
36977Is he beautiful?
36977Is that the reason why the flowers are all white and scentless here?
36977It does exist, then?
36977Look, dearest, is n''t it lovely?
36977Mercy,she said,"why do you always write of''Terah''as you call him?
36977My child, have you lived in the great city and not learned that we can imagine no heaven so lovely as the joy of our hearts when we do a good action? 36977 No?
36977Not to heaven?
36977Our dear son is lonely; wilt thou befriend him? 36977 Prithee, tell me thy name, gracious lady?"
36977Tell me, before we part, good my lord, hast any proof that this''rose of friendship''exists?
36977Tell me, my dear lord, why is it that the sea washing the shores of the Garden of the Past is not salt, but fresh as a mountain spring?
36977The nuns wo n''t be angry with you for staying a little while with your brother; they will consent to receive you later, will they not?
36977The sisters would not wish you to take the veil if you or they doubted your vocation for such a surrender?
36977Then to- morrow, good sir,said the King,"or the week after?"
36977Then why leave me? 36977 Then you are going to leave us after all?"
36977Thou seekest the''deathless rose of friendship,''is it not so?
36977What do you do?
36977What dost thou here, son of a King?
36977What gift?
36977What is this Love for which the whole earth pines?
36977What spell is there in this''for ever''that mortals must always crave after it? 36977 What were you a- thinking of this mornin''in church when you was singin''the_ Ave Maria_?"
36977What, in the faice? 36977 What, in there?"
36977What?
36977Where art thou going, good dame?
36977Where does he live?
36977Whither are they going?
36977Whither?
36977Who is Prince, my boy?
36977Who is ter judge?
36977Why didst thou leave the Palace of Time, dear Beryl?
36977Why do you call him Prince?
36977Why no, when you mean yes?
36977Why, did n''t I sing it well?
36977Why, of course I do; you were poor Godfrey''s model?
36977Will you tell the coachman where to go?
36977Wilt thou not be afraid to entrust thyself to my arms?
36977Wilt thou not go too, good youth? 36977 You are sad, Marietta?"
36977You are then a Christian?
36977You do n''t like that?
36977You do not think your life here involves a sin? 36977 You have been happy here?"
36977Your mind is quite made up, nothing could change it?
36977Are stars visible in the daytime?
36977Art thou not my successor to these fair islands?
36977But what was this?
36977But, sir, you seem ill. Can I help you?"
36977By the way, our mutual friend, Lady R----, tells me that you are much distressed over the condition of the unemployed in our great city?"
36977Can a Pig Perch?
36977Could you build with your feet through your boots?
36977Could you lift heavy weights with no strength in your body and no hope in your soul?"
36977Do I not at length possess the white rose of friendship?"
36977Do you not know that the bitterest chapter in the book of life is that which is headed''Broken Ideals''?
36977Do you not think you could be content to stay a little?"
36977Had I tried golfing?
36977Had he only dreamed that the rose had changed to red in the youth''s hands?
36977Hast thou not, my daughter?"
36977Have I done aught that should forfeit me thy friendship?"
36977Have I not found solace in thy companionship?
36977Have you?
36977How much do you want for it?"
36977If she went thither, should she find them, and with them the playmates and the innocence of childhood?
36977Is it not so?"
36977Is not to- day somewhat soon?
36977Is that impossible in that wide world yonder?"
36977It is too good to be true, Beryl; besides, if it were not, how could I let thee depart upon such a quest?
36977Knowing the girl''s parentage as she did, how could she advise her to accept a mortal for her husband?
36977Must she remain alone in this weird place, and walk continually in this garden of colourless flowers?
36977Perhaps thou canst aid me in my search?"
36977Presently the youth addressed her, and his voice was the saddest of all the music that she had ever heard,--"Maiden, what wouldst thou with me?"
36977Shall our wedding be to- day?"
36977Tell me, what can a King do for thy comfort?"
36977Tell me, why art thou changed?
36977The Fairy Prince off the tree come to life?
36977What do you do then?"
36977What is a Goo?
36977What is it,"she cried aloud,"what is this Love, for which all Nature pines?"
36977What is the gift?"
36977What is the woman''s name?"
36977What should she know of love?
36977What was that?
36977What was this beautiful tiny creature enveloped in a haze of glory?
36977What would riches and greatness mean to him unless she were there to share in his good fortune?
36977What would you?
36977What would you?
36977Wherefore art thou sad?"
36977Who are you?"
36977Why do you bloom in this dreary garden while the snow yet covers the ground?"
36977Why had he come into the depths of the white country now?
36977Why have I lost my youth in seeking him to lose him now?"
36977Why should I suffer hunger and cold and disgrace and beggary?
36977Why should a man seek to flatter a woman; in short, to insult her?"
36977Why should he not search for the deathless rose, disguised, that none might seek his friendship falsely?
36977Why should my mother die of neglect, when others have all they need?
36977Why was n''t I a lord''s son instead of a waif of the streets?
36977Will you get into the carriage?"
36977Wilt thou go with me and give up thy wish, content to let the Village of Youth grow old, as is the fate of all things mortal?
36977Wilt thou prove to him that it is a reality and not a dream?"
36977Wilt thou teach him the solace of friendship?
36977Would it ever reach them?
36977Would not the world lie down and die from cold?
36977You are enjoying yourself, are you not?"
36977You know?
36977[ Illustration]"And art thou quite happy?"
36977[ Illustration]"Art thou quite happy now, my gracious lord?"
36977[ Illustration]"Is this the Garden of Innocence?"
36977[ Illustration]"Sweet flower,"he murmured,"have you forgotten that it is still winter?
36977what aileth thee?"
36977would they not perish?
701Bless me, what''s that?
701Ca n''t what?
701Ca n''t you give me a little bit?
701Good morning, brother,said Hans;"have you any message for the King of the Golden River?"
701How did he get in?
701I''m very, very hungry, sir; could n''t you spare me a bit of bread before I go?
701Pray, sir,said Gluck, rather hesitatingly,"were you my mug?"
701WILL you pour me out?
701Want?
701What did you keep us waiting in the rain for?
701What''s that?
701What''s your business?
701Who are you, sir?
701Who''s that?
701Why do n''t you sell your feather?
701Would n''t it, sir?
701Your cap, sir?
701Do you suppose I''m going to allow that?"
701How long may I stay?"
701What do you want, sir?"
701do you suppose I carried it all the way up here for you?"
701laughed Schwartz,"are you there?
701said Gluck again,"what is that?"
701said Gluck,"have you really been so cruel?"
701said Schwartz;"do you suppose we''ve nothing to do with our bread but to give it to such red- nosed fellows as you?"
701what for, indeed, you little vagabond?"
7841Does she live far?
7841Where are you going?
7841******* tapped thank dear arms hug called When Red Riding- Hood tapped on the door, the wolf called out,"Who is there?"
7841At last they said,"Who let the apples go?"
7841Freyja said,"Do you think I will be the Frost Giant''s wife?
7841He said,"What makes Freyja''s eyes shine so?"
7841Loki said,"Can you make me a gold crown that will grow like real hair?"
7841So he went to Freyja and said,"Will you let me have your falcon suit?
7841The cat said,"Can you growl?"
7841The grandma said,"Who is there?"
7841The hen said,"Can you lay eggs?"
7841Thor said,"Did you cut off Sif''s hair?"
7841Thor said,"Well, did you get the hammer?"
7841What did he see?
7841When he saw Loki, he said,"What do you want?"
7841[ Illustration: THE CAT SAID,"CAN YOU GROWL?"]
7841[ Illustration:"DID YOU CUT OFF SIF''S HAIR?"]
7841he called,"Where are you?"
14916Ah, Morgiana,said Ali Baba,"what is it you show me?
14916Am not I wicked,said she,"to behave so ill to a beast who has shown me so much kindness; why will I not marry him?
14916And is this splendid castle yours also, my lord marquis of Carabas? 14916 Art thou,"cried the giant,"the villain that killed my kinsmen?
14916Beauty,said he,"will you give me leave to see you sup?"
14916Beauty,said the merchant,"how comes it about that you ask for nothing; what can I bring you, my child?"
14916But how came you to our house?
14916But might you not try an apology?
14916But what good will that do your majesty? 14916 But what if she should marry?"
14916Can you bear this?
14916Can you lay eggs?
14916Child,said she,"to whom are we obliged for this great plenty and liberality?
14916D''ye think this is all the world?
14916Dear mother,he said,"why are you so sorrowful?"
14916Did he? 14916 Do n''t you like falling in, then?"
14916Do you grant it?
14916Do you think it is my brothers?
14916Does she live far off?
14916Good fathersaid Jack,"can you lodge a traveller who has lost his way?"
14916Hansel,said the woman,"what are you stopping for in that way?
14916Here, my child,said the godmother,"is a coach and horses too, as handsome as your sisters'', but what shall we do for a postillion?"
14916How do you do it? 14916 How do you feel, my child?"
14916How do you know I am a prince, princess?
14916How is it,said he,"that the key of the closet upon the ground floor is not here?"
14916I hope,said Jack,"you will not stay here long; but pray tell me what is the meaning of your being here at all?"
14916I mean, what do you feel like?
14916Is it not?
14916Is the fellow mad?
14916Is there no way to set them free?
14916Is there nothing you wish for?
14916Is this the gravity you used to make so much of?
14916May I try?
14916Mother,said he,"have I an uncle?"
14916Mother,she exclaimed,"whose shirts are these?
14916My dear prince, what have you done?
14916My good mother,said the princess,"what is a roc, and where may one get an egg?"
14916Now, queen,he said, turning to her Majesty,"what_ is_ to be done?"
14916One moment longer, I beseech you,replied she, and again called softly to her sister,"Sister Anne, do you see any one coming?"
14916Please, your Majesty, shall I take the baby?
14916Put you up where, you beauty?
14916Put you up where, you beauty?
14916Say you so my friend?
14916Say you so?
14916The longer the better, however,he resumed,"for can I not bargain that the princess shall be beside me all the time?
14916To my old sister, I suppose you mean?
14916We do n''t understand you? 14916 Well, how goes it?"
14916Well, what is your condition?
14916Well, what of that?
14916Well, what''s the matter with your child? 14916 Well, what''s to be done?"
14916Well,continued the sultan,"what sayest thou to such a present?
14916Well,said the giant,"what news, cousin Jack?"
14916Well?
14916What are you about, you bold- faced hussies, running after a young man in that way through the fields? 14916 What are you crying for, queen?"
14916What are you doing?
14916What are you thinking of?
14916What business had you to pull me down out of the water, and throw me to the bottom of the air? 14916 What can be the meaning of this mark?"
14916What do you mean?
14916What is all this about?
14916What is it, my darling?
14916What is it?
14916What is that, good mother?
14916What shall we do now?
14916What sort of a one are you?
14916What wouldst thou have?
14916What''s this?
14916Where are they? 14916 Where are you, Tommy, my dear Tommy?"
14916Where is she?
14916Where,said she,"can he get so many large gold trays, and such precious stones to fill them?
14916Who calls me?
14916Who calls me?
14916Who has been eating my vegetables?
14916Who is there?
14916Who is there?
14916Who is this strange man,said she,"who eats no salt with his meat?
14916Why ca n''t we go and have a swim?
14916Why did n''t you tell me before what your condition was? 14916 Why do n''t you have any daughters, at least?"
14916Why should the little wretch be better off than we?
14916Will you be in the lake to- morrow night?
14916Will you come down, madam?
14916Will you kiss me, princess?
14916Will you promise to let me have it?
14916Would you like a fall, princess?
14916Would you like to run and see your parents before you make your experiment?
14916Would you not like to be able to walk like other people?
14916Y- e- s,replied Cinderella with hesitation,"but must I go thither in these filthy rags?"
14916You do not know?
14916After some effort the princess panted out:"Is that what you call_ falling in_?"
14916Aladdin got up trembling, and with tears in his eyes said to the magician,"What have I done, uncle, to be treated in this severe manner?"
14916Aladdin, amazed at all he saw and heard, forgot what was past, and rising said,"Well, uncle, what is to be done?
14916And ought I not to bestow her on one who values her at so great a price?"
14916And the Cat said,"Can you curve your back, and purr, and give out sparks?"
14916Are they not beautiful?
14916Are you not delighted with it?"
14916Are you of any trade?"
14916Are you sure you do n''t mind it?"
14916As he approached, he began crying,"Who will exchange old lamps for new ones?"
14916As he was going along, he met a butcher, who inquired why he was driving the cow from home?
14916At last he said,"Who are you, and what do you want?"
14916At last he spoke to the sisters, and asked:"To whom does this beautiful tree belong?
14916At last his stepmother said,"Why do you keep staying behind and looking back so?"
14916At last, when he had recovered himself, he said,"And what is become of the merchant?"
14916At that moment, the enchantment being ended, the princess awoke, and, looking drowsily and tenderly at the young man, said:"Have you come, my prince?
14916At that summons the genie appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
14916But how was he to be put in?
14916But how was this to be brought about?
14916But now I am speaking of the palace, pray how do you like it?
14916But tell me, Beauty, do you not think me very ugly?"
14916But what was this that it saw in the clear water?
14916Can it really be a turkey chick?
14916Did you hear or see any thing in the dead of the night?"
14916Did you not get into a warm room, and have you not fallen into company from which you may learn something?
14916Do n''t you see it, queen?
14916Do you really suppose me such a fool?
14916Do you think she has any desire to swim, and to let the water close above her head?"
14916For what indeed could a prince do with a princess that had lost her gravity?
14916Has the sultan been made acquainted with our poverty, and had compassion on us?"
14916Hast thou firmness enough to remain dumb seven years, and not speak to anyone, or even laugh?
14916Have you forgotten that there is a christening to- day?"
14916He looked down at her as she stood by his horse, and said:"Little Two Eyes, what shall I give you for this?"
14916He looked hard at it, and then said:"How came this blood upon the key?"
14916How came that vile genie to address himself to me, and not to you, to whom he had appeared before in the cave?"
14916How could I have the heart to leave my children all alone in the wood, where the wild beasts would come quickly and devour them?"
14916How could it think of wishing to possess such loveliness as they had?
14916How dare you?"
14916How is your appetite now?
14916How long is that to last?
14916How''s the lake?"
14916II_ Wo n''t I, Just?_ The day drew near when the infant must be christened.
14916If they were near the golden bird, why should not she be there?
14916Immediately a genie of frightful aspect appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
14916In me he delighted, By him I was knighted, Did you never hear of Sir Thomas Thumb?"
14916Is it not worthy of the princess my daughter?
14916Is it you?
14916No Children?_ Once upon a time, so long ago that I have quite forgotten the date, there lived a king and queen who had no children.
14916Now, only look at the others; are they not the prettiest little ducks one could possibly see?
14916Once, in the midst of her sorrow she looked up, and saw a woman standing near her who said,"What are you weeping for, little Two Eyes?"
14916One day when he was almost quite spent, he said to himself, fetching a deep sigh,"Wherein can I have offended the king?
14916Poor little Grethel wept bitter tears as she listened, and said to her brother,"What is going to happen to us, Hansel?"
14916Pray, how did you sleep last night?
14916Presently a voice came out of the cottage:"Munching, crunching, munching, Who''s eating up my house?"
14916Presently the wise woman stood again before her, and said,"Little Two Eyes, why do you weep?"
14916Remember, too, that he would eat no salt with you; and what would you have more to persuade you of his wicked design?
14916She ca n''t help being dumb, but why does she never laugh?
14916She was in as great amazement at what her son told her, as at the appearance of the genie; and said to him,"But, son, what have we to do with genies?
14916She''s the grandest of all here; she''s of Spanish blood-- that''s why she''s so fat; and d''ye see?
14916So I shall see her once more, kiss her perhaps-- who knows?
14916So the proud woman went to her magic looking- glass, and asked:"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Am I most beautiful of all?"
14916Take a glass of wine?"
14916The apothecary inquired who was ill?
14916The brothers were angry, and said,"Shall we suffer death on account of a maiden?
14916The fairy then said to Cinderella:"Well, my dear, is not this such an equipage as you could wish for to take you to the ball?
14916The giant, with a voice like thunder, roared out:"Who is there?"
14916The godmother, who was a fairy, said to her,"You wish to go to the ball, Cinderella, is not this the truth?"
14916The instant they reached the surface--"How do you like falling in?"
14916The king accordingly passed a moment after, and inquired to whom the corn he saw belonged?
14916The king could not see into the garret she lived in, could he?
14916The king did not fail to ask the reapers to whom the meadow belonged?
14916The old woman shook her head at them, and said,"Ah, you dear children, who has brought you here?
14916The people flocked far and near to look at him; and the king, before whom he was carried, asked him who he was, whence he came, and where he lived?
14916The princess did not appear to understand him, for she retorted his question:"How do_ you_ like falling in?"
14916The second exclaimed,"Who has been eating from my little plate?"
14916The sixth cried,"And who has been cutting with my knife?"
14916Then he said,"Little Two Eyes, can you break off a branch of the tree for me?"
14916Then pray who is to understand you?
14916Then said the first,"Who has been sitting in my little chair?"
14916Then the envious mother cried out to poor little Two Eyes,"You wish to have better food than we, do you?
14916These enviers of Avenant''s prosperity immediately ran open mouthed to the king, saying,"Sir sir, what does your majesty think Avenant says?
14916They knocked at the door, and when their stepmother opened it, she exclaimed:"You naughty children, why have you been staying so long in the forest?
14916V_ What Is to Be Done?_ But above- stairs it was different.
14916What do you mean?"
14916What have you in your basket for me to buy?"
14916What is it?"
14916What say you, my lads?"
14916When they awoke it was dark night, and poor Grethel began to cry, and said,"Oh, how shall we get out of the wood?"
14916When will you begin?"
14916Whence has he all this wealth?"
14916While Cinderella was busily engaged in dressing her sisters, they said to her,"Should you not like, Cinderella, to go to the ball?"
14916While they sat at table, one of them said,"Well, Benjamin, have you any news?"
14916Who could tell what she might not lose next?
14916Why could n''t they leave me alone?
14916Why did not she ask for fine things as we did?
14916Why didst thou not leave those white flowers to grow on their stems?
14916Why do n''t they?
14916Will nothing serve you for breakfast this cold morning but broiling poor Jack?"
14916Will you go with us, and become a bird of passage?
14916XII_ Where Is the Prince_?
14916You see where that green light is burning?
14916are you there?
14916child,"said she,"what are you thinking of?
14916cried her sisters;"you, with your two eyes, what can you do?"
14916cried the mother,"was your lamp then the occasion of that cursed genie''s addressing himself rather to me than to you?
14916cried the woman,"are you afraid it is poisoned?
14916do you not know it?
14916do you see any one coming?"
14916do you see any one coming?"
14916do you see no one coming?"
14916exclaimed Ali Baba,"what have you done to ruin me and my family?"
14916is it?"
14916replied he,"you would have me do something against my conscience, or against my honour?"
14916said Jack, looking into the pit,"have you found your way so soon to the bottom?
14916said he,"does this youngster make a jest at my misfortune, and pretend to set himself above me?
14916said she,"has Ali Baba gold so plentiful as to measure it?
14916said the boy,"have I caught you at your bad tricks at last?
14916said the giant,"what heavy news can come to me?
14916said the person whom he addressed,"have you never seen or heard of her?
14916thought Jack;"are these your tricks upon travellers?
14916what shall we do with them, for they must not starve?"
14916where am I?"
33002A hundred bushels of what? 33002 Ah, a golden ring?
33002Ah, but what would Vitazko say to that?
33002Ah,he said, rubbing his eyes,"I''ve been asleep, have n''t I?"
33002And how did things go?
33002And what do you want?
33002And where will you sleep?
33002Are there any more?
33002Are you ready to give me back my tablecloth and rooster?
33002Are you sick?
33002But Marushka,Great January said,"why are you here again?
33002But how, dear Sharkan, shall I unchain you?
33002But if you saw the Devil, do n''t you think you''d be afraid of him?
33002But, my dear sister,Marushka gasped,"where can I find red apples in winter?"
33002But, you foolish frog,she said,"how can I be godmother to your babies?
33002Can you cure him?
33002Can you tell me, dear St. Nedyelka, where I can find the Water of Life and the Water of Death? 33002 Do you fear your own son?
33002Do you know him?
33002Do you need a laborer?
33002Do you suppose those beggars really have got some money?
33002Does she like those apples so much that she ca n''t leave them, or what is it? 33002 Fishing in a dusty road?
33002Godmother,Martin said, pointing to a candle that was burning low,"whose may that be?"
33002Good heavens, my dear sister,Marushka said,"where can I find strawberries this time of year?
33002How can I help it? 33002 How can a poor shepherd be a prince?"
33002How can you help it?
33002How did things go?
33002How much do you want for your soul?
33002How much shall I ask for it?
33002I should think my crop was big for have n''t I just eaten Grandmother, spinning- wheel and all, and Grandfather, stool and all? 33002 I suppose you want Prince Lucifer to give you something else, eh?"
33002I? 33002 Is that enough?"
33002Is that the best you can do? 33002 Listen, Budulinek,"she said:"if you open the door, do you know what I''ll do?
33002Manka,he said,"do you forget what I told you would happen if you went interfering in any of my cases?
33002Me?
33002Me?
33002Me?
33002My dear son, back again? 33002 Now can you feel?"
33002Now, Master,St. Peter said,"what am I to do?
33002Oh dear, oh dear, what can be keeping her?
33002Oh dear, what shall I do?
33002Or did you pick more and eat them yourself on the way home?
33002So your master desires the hand of my daughter, the Princess Zlatovlaska, eh? 33002 Strawberries?
33002Tell us, dear Godfather,they said,"what road do you take to go to hell?
33002The Princess Zlatovlaska?
33002The bird, Pelikan, my son? 33002 Then what will you give me?"
33002Three pennies? 33002 To me?"
33002Violets? 33002 Vitazko?"
33002Was there ever such a foolish woman in the world?
33002Well, Josef,she asked,"how are you getting on?"
33002Well, son, how did things go?
33002Well, son, how did things go?
33002Well, son, what is it now?
33002What are you laughing at, Yirik?
33002What are you looking for now?
33002What can I do in here? 33002 What can they be doing all this time?"
33002What can this mean?
33002What can you be thinking of? 33002 What chance has a poor devil with such a woman?"
33002What cruel creature has imprisoned them, I wonder? 33002 What do you mean,"he shouted,"not giving the gentleman his beer?
33002What do you want me to do?
33002What do you want now?
33002What do you want us to do?
33002What do you want, little brother- in- law?
33002What does this mean?
33002What has happened?
33002What have we ever done to you?
33002What is it now?
33002What is it now?
33002What is it, dear mother?
33002What is it?
33002What is the matter, husband?
33002What kind of a cook am I,he said to himself,"that I''m not to sample my own cooking?"
33002What shall I do? 33002 What shall I do?
33002What then can I give you?
33002What''s come over things today?
33002What''s this trick you''re playing on me?
33002Where are they gone? 33002 Where are you going with that hen?"
33002Where are you going, Vitazko?
33002Where are you going, Yirik?
33002Where did you get them?
33002Where did you get them?
33002Where did you get them?
33002Where shall I go?
33002Where''s Grandpa?
33002Who are you? 33002 Who are you?"
33002Who is she?
33002Who is this prince of yours,Peter asked the landlord,"and why does he want to see me?"
33002Why are you here again, Marushka?
33002Why are you here?
33002Why do you stand such treatment?
33002Why does it make you cry?
33002Why not? 33002 Why should I feed your family?
33002Will nothing save you?
33002Will you?
33002Wo n''t you sit down on this stool, dear lady, and rest you for a moment? 33002 You say you were in heaven?"
33002After that should n''t you suppose he would do what she told him?
33002All the other serpents on the ground were facing the golden table and with darting tongues were hissing:"Is it time?
33002And do you know what happened?
33002And how are all my dear godchildren?
33002And if he were to fall, how could he climb back?
33002And my wife-- what will she say?"
33002And safe and sound?
33002And what are you doing here?"
33002And what is this good fortune that has come to you?"
33002And what kind of stairs do you suppose they were?
33002And when people ask him:"Who''s Gentle Dora?"
33002And you want Prince Lucifer to take it back and give you something else, eh?
33002Are you agreed?"
33002Are you daft?"
33002Are you ready?"
33002Are you ready?"
33002Are you ready?"
33002Are you ready?"
33002Are you sure that''s as much as you''ll pay?"
33002As for the sweetest, did you ever taste honey any sweeter than ours?
33002As they were leaving, St. Peter plucked Lord Jesus by the sleeve and whispered:"Master, are n''t you going to reward this man?
33002But Vitazko said:"Nay, what use has an old man for gold?"
33002But tell me,"he said,"who put you up to this?
33002But what could he do?
33002But what could he say?
33002But would the Rooster listen to the little Hen?
33002But would the Rooster wait and cool off?
33002Dear, kind Nedyelka, tell me, what shall I do?"
33002Did Holena at last begin to feel sorry that she had been so wicked and cruel to Marushka?
33002Did she go undressed?
33002Did she walk to the burgomaster''s?
33002Do n''t you remember what I told you?"
33002Do n''t you think you ought to reward him?"
33002Do you hear me?
33002Do you hear?"
33002Do you hear?"
33002Do you know what I''ll do if you open the door?
33002Do you know where they are?"
33002Do you know?"
33002Do you see anything here that you''d like?"
33002Do you see the faint outlines of an island over yonder?
33002Do you think she gave Budulinek a ride on her tail?
33002Have I slept through the winter?
33002Have you seen him pass this way?"
33002He cleared his throat apologetically and stammered:"Dear Godfather, you-- you do n''t want your poor godchildren to go hungry, do you?
33002He had a daughter, a clever girl named Manka, who met him at the door of his cottage and asked:"What is it, father?
33002He struck it smartly and immediately two burly men jumped out and, bowing low before him, said:"What does the master of the castle desire?"
33002He went out to him and asked:"What are you doing?"
33002How do you feel, my son?"
33002How then could he find the ring?
33002How was he to find out?
33002I wonder will the rock open for me?"
33002In the evening when Granny came home she said:"Budulinek, did you open the door and let any one in?"
33002In the evening when Granny came home, she said:"Budulinek, did you open the door and let any one in?"
33002Is it time?"
33002Just then outside a hissing voice called out:"Where shall we go?
33002Later the burgomaster said to the shepherd:"Tell me, now, who gave you those answers?
33002Lishka, the sly old thing, came into the room and what do you think she did?
33002Marushka bowed politely and said:"Kind sirs, may I warm myself at your fire?
33002Marushka bowed politely and said:"Kind sirs, may I warm myself at your fire?
33002My good man, will you take him something from me?
33002Now I ask you: did she go dressed?
33002Now shall I begin?"
33002Now should n''t you suppose that after all this the Rooster would never again disobey the little Hen?
33002Now who shall it be?"
33002Of course not, for was n''t she covered with a fishnet?
33002Of course she did n''t ride for was n''t she walking on one foot?
33002Oh dear, oh dear, what shall I do?"
33002Oh, you-- you sheep''s tick, where have you been and what have you been doing?"
33002On sight of Vitazko he raised his head and bellowed out:"Ho, you murderer of dragons, what do you want here?"
33002Please, sir, wo n''t you tell me where I can find some?"
33002Please, sir, wo n''t you tell me where I can find some?"
33002Please, sir, wo n''t you tell me where I can find some?"
33002Presently a journeyman shoemaker came by and said to him:"Comrade, what ails you?"
33002Release Death?
33002So he said:"My good man, if I sat here and guarded your hat, would you be willing to mount my horse and follow that rascal?"
33002Tell me, kind Nedyelka, how can I get the bird, Pelikan?"
33002Tell me: where have you been all winter long?"
33002The Princess Linka as she clung to her young husband asked a little fearfully:"Peter, do you suppose we''ll have to see our brother- in- law often?"
33002The blacksmith stopped his singing to call out:"Who''s there?"
33002The farmer and the shepherd accepted this proposal and the burgomaster said:"Well then, here is my riddle: What is the swiftest thing in the world?
33002The farmer cleared his throat and with a pompous air began:"The swiftest thing in the world?
33002The prince was n''t prepared for this but he needed money so badly that he said:"H''m, which one of them?"
33002The question is, where has he been?
33002The richest?
33002The sweetest thing of all is sleep for when a man is tired and sad what can be sweeter?
33002The sweetest?
33002Then Lishka jumped into the room and do you know what she did?
33002Then did she ride?
33002Then every day they would pinch him and say to each other:"Sister, do you think he''s fat enough yet to roast?"
33002Then he asked:"What answers does the shepherd make?"
33002Then he paused and asked:"Shall I whistle some more?"
33002Then in a different tone he demanded:"What do you want?"
33002Then she stepped forward and said, politely:"Kind sirs, may I warm myself at your fire?
33002Vitazko listened but he could feel neither surprise nor grief nor anger nor anything, for how could he feel since he had no heart?
33002What are you doing here?"
33002What are you hunting now?"
33002What could Batcha do but obey?
33002What did the burgomaster say?"
33002What do you mean by making a fool of me this way?"
33002What do you want and why do you sit there gaping at me?"
33002What do you want here?"
33002What do you want us to do?"
33002What is the richest?
33002What is the sweetest thing?
33002What is your second wish?"
33002What shall I do?"
33002What shall I do?"
33002What shall I do?"
33002Whenever he hears of a woman who is a scold, he says:"Why, she''s a regular Gentle Dora, is n''t she?"
33002Where are my sheep?
33002Where shall we go?"
33002Which way did he go?"
33002Which will you do?"
33002Which will you have: that which grows above the ground, or that which grows below the ground?"
33002Whoever heard of strawberries growing under the snow?"
33002Whoever heard of violets growing under the snow in January?"
33002Why do n''t you leave your Gentle Dora and come along with me?
33002Why do n''t you take service with her?
33002Wife, where''s that old worn- out measure that we''re going to throw away?
33002Wo n''t you please give me a little piece of meat?
33002Yan looked at her and laughed and he asked:"How can I be a prince?"
33002You know that precious wife of yours, Gentle Dora?
33002You see that big town we''re coming to?
33002and he called out:"Who''s there?"
33002ha!--what does that amount to?"
33002the devil exclaimed,"Can you beat that?"
30834A witch''s offspring without a family pedigree,exclaimed his wife,"must I be mother to a witch''s brat?"
30834And are n''t you going to give me any time to get my trousseau?
30834And do you think that I am doing right in taking this money from you, Norah?
30834And how did you come to be among the dwarfs?
30834And what about the airship?
30834And will she not drop pitch on my head? 30834 And you Elfrida,"said Lenore, turning to her fairer sister,"will you come with us?"
30834Are n''t you going to give me_ any_?
30834Are there any more of you?
30834Are you Babette, the witch''s granddaughter?
30834Are you a fairy?
30834Are you frightened?
30834But are you sure they are not chocolate after all?
30834But did he send for me?
30834But everything was all right, was n''t it, mother, the potatoes were boiled and the supper ready?
30834But how shall I get its fur off?
30834But may we ask who you are?
30834But of what use are they?
30834But the bells are ringing, do n''t you hear them? 30834 But to whom does the looking- glass belong?"
30834But what are we to do now, Karl?
30834By the way,he went on--"do you happen to have a telephone here?
30834Can we go in at once?
30834Can you really_ see_ me?
30834Can you tell me anything about the fair young lady herself? 30834 Children,"said the wood- woman,"children, do you mean it?"
30834Dear little men,she said,"may I have the tree?
30834Did mother see him too?
30834Did n''t they teach you that at school either?
30834Did we dream it all?
30834Do I look like one?
30834Do you believe in fairies and tree men?
30834Do you follow me? 30834 Do you know what I think?"
30834Do you know where our hotel is?
30834Do you not see our glow- worms hanging in festoons on the walls?
30834Do you see that pretty bush with silver palm- buds on it over there?
30834Do you think so?
30834Do you wish to buy rings?
30834Doubtless you are a poet?
30834Hare and carrots and stewed plums, what can anyone want more?
30834Has the Easter Hare quite forgotten us this year?
30834Have you a gold ring for me?
30834Have you ever seen the trees dance?
30834How can we get there?
30834How did you know that trees were alive?
30834How much would it cost?
30834How shall we carry it?
30834How soon?
30834How_ do_ people get engaged?
30834However shall I get out again?
30834Hullo, who''s there?
30834I have often thought about it, but I never could imagine how they do it?
30834I should strongly advise you not to do so,her husband replied, and the children said,"Oh Mother, do let us keep them always, they are so beautiful?"
30834I was at work on the new tunnel----"You''ll not be telling me that you are a working man?
30834Is everything ready? 30834 Is he really the Easter Hare?"
30834Is it possible that you have not heard of him? 30834 Is it_ really_ for me?"
30834Is that something_ horrid_?
30834It''s going down on my side; O dear, what shall I do?
30834It''s true nevertheless; now would n''t it be fun to have a ride in it? 30834 Karl,"she said excitedly,"I do believe it is the dwarf men after all; who else could it be?"
30834Leave my cats alone, will you?
30834Mother, may we see your sketch?
30834Mother, mother, here lives a real tree man; we saw him-- didn''t you?
30834Mrs Herzchen here?
30834My stones must be there still,said Karl as they came to the little brook,"for who could have taken them away?"
30834No, come along, Barbara,said Gretel,"leave them alone, it would be horrid to get no Easter eggs would n''t it?"
30834Norah,said the dwarfs,"Norah, when are you coming again?"
30834Now, Mr Dwarf,said Karl, anxious to proceed to business,"what about our little agreement as to electric light, etc.?"
30834O can you tell me where to find Mother Holle, beautiful fairy?
30834O dear, O dear, whatever_ shall_ I do? 30834 O you dear, good Hugo,"she said,"have you come to fetch me home?
30834One must do something, you know; looks snug, does n''t it? 30834 Perhaps you can tell me what seven times seven makes?"
30834Please where is the coffee?
30834Poor thing,she interrupted,"did you bind it up properly?"
30834Shall we put it in the back yard or in the stable?
30834She''s here now-- would you like to see her?
30834Such a pretty oak table and beautifully carved chairs; where did you get them from?
30834That was rather rough on them, eh?
30834They belong to the most intelligent of all creatures; who can build a fortress like the mole?
30834We had a gorgeous ride on his back, mother dear; would you like to see him? 30834 We must secure the magic book first of all,"said Rudolf, holding the fir- branch firmly in his hand,"and would you kindly light this candle for me?"
30834Well I never, you do n''t expect me to believe such things, do you?
30834Well, I did n''t hurt anyone, did I, but how about your treatment of me? 30834 Well, I never, playing again, I suppose?
30834Well, children, enjoying yourselves on this fine night, I hope?
30834What do we need with you? 30834 What do you say to that?"
30834What do_ you_ want?
30834What has become of Hugo?
30834What have I done to you, that you should want to shoot me? 30834 What have I done to you, young sirs?"
30834What is he going to do? 30834 What is the good of learning To read and write and sew, To count and do addition If fairies you do n''t know?
30834What is your name, child?
30834What is your name? 30834 What terms?"
30834What would it matter, if the dinner were burnt sometimes,he thought,"if I could have such a pretty, fascinating little girl to marry me?"
30834What''s a telephone?
30834What''s that?
30834What''s that?
30834What''s the matter now, old chappie?
30834What''s the matter? 30834 What''s the use of getting so lively, Hansi?"
30834What_ was_ the matter with you last night, Käthe?
30834Whatever are you doing, Lottchen?
30834Where are the female dwarfs?
30834Where can I find Mother Holle?
30834Where''s Lottchen? 30834 Where''s that other little boy?"
30834Which do you like best, work or play?
30834Who are you? 30834 Who are you?"
30834Who is she?
30834Who is the Hare?
30834Whom do you mean, darling?
30834Why of course, did you think I was a human child like you? 30834 Why, little one, what ails you?"
30834Why, what dirty little thing have you picked up? 30834 Will you come home and have supper with me?
30834Will you come in and have some breakfast?
30834Would n''t it make our eyes blink?
30834Yes, do n''t you think it is original and attractive?
30834You are lucky children, why does not the Hare come to England?
30834You are not bewitched, Rudie dear?
30834You are pleased to see us, are you not?
30834You have heard of trains, have n''t you? 30834 Young person answering to the name of Hansi Herzchen here?"
30834Zeppelin, no!--is he the King of Germany?
30834_ Age and date of birth?_he demanded of Hansi.
30834_ Dear, dear_,said Mr Easter Hare,"you found them of course in your garden, or----?"
30834_ Do_ you know which is the right finger?
30834_ What next?_said the poor Countess, holding up her hands in horror!
30834''This is most tiresome to behold; What shall I do?''
30834("However_ could_ he have known that?"
30834--"whatever shall I do now?"
30834A fox?
30834After all birds fly, bats fly and fairies fly, why should not ships and trains fly?"
30834All of a sudden the earth trembled-- was it an earthquake?
30834And did Hansi give the cake to her dwarf friends as she had promised to do?
30834And did Walter become a great poet?
30834But where was the beautiful palace on the Altkönig?
30834But why are you so pale?"
30834Can I be still dreaming?"
30834Could she expect that the dignified Mr Query would condescend to become an object of general curiosity?
30834Did he not hear them himself on the Old King''s Mountain, when he attended the Midsummer fête of the fairies?
30834Did he really come back to visit her as a grown man?
30834Did his ghost haunt it still?
30834Did they marry and live happy ever after?
30834Do you cry much?
30834Do you, I wonder, little children, who read this story?
30834Gretel had heard of the magic flower Moly which screamed when it was pulled up by the roots; could there be screaming bushes as well?
30834Gustel,"she said,"you are a Catholic and believe in the saints; they saw very queer things too, sometimes, did n''t they?"
30834Had he green ears as a mortal?
30834Have you a ventilating shaft?"
30834Have you ever been in love?"
30834He had a great mass of brown curly hair tumbling about his head; green ears-- it seemed to her,_ could_ it be possible?
30834He looked thoughtful and answered:"Of course, mother, I know; but this time I want to slay a''really and truly''dragon, may I?
30834Hermann''s heart beat to bursting as he beheld them: where had he seen them before?
30834How could Hugo deliver her?
30834How could she make soup?
30834How do you know a fairy?
30834How fine you are, Mr Fox,"said the old woman,"I suppose you are going to the ball to- night?"
30834How many guests had they had since Hôtel Fancy had been opened?
30834How much have you got Karl?"
30834How should Walter reach this fairy palace?
30834I am sure_ he_ lives here; where are his little chairs and tables?
30834I beg your pardon I''m sure"--as they looked displeased again--"Now I am really curious to know-- have you heard of Zeppelin?"
30834I ca n''t remember if he had his red coat on, can you, Gretel?"
30834I could well believe it; for verily she has bewitched me; but who were her parents?
30834I do not think any one of us would have enjoyed it all alone at the dead of night, do you?
30834I suppose she wants to see it too?"
30834I think she richly deserved it-- don''t you?
30834I wonder where she lives?"
30834I would have liked to be present at their wedding, would n''t you?
30834Is it the wreathing smoke I see That forms itself so curiously?
30834Is n''t he a jolly old fellow?"
30834Is she really the granddaughter of a witch?
30834Is this the King Whom nations hail?
30834It seems as if we were meant to pull together, does n''t it?"
30834May we ask you for some more?"
30834Mrs Herzchen was very angry,"Why do n''t you mind your own business?"
30834Now was n''t that a queer thing, children, queerer than all the fairy stories you have read?
30834Now will you believe it they had never heard of the Zeppelin airship?"
30834Now, what_ can_ be the use of playing, I should like to know?"
30834O what are school and lessons, My little maiden, pray, If to the land of fairy They do not show the way?"
30834O, who will feed Lucky, and all the baby chickens; and my cats?"
30834On the third day of his visit, Ludwig said to the Emperor:"Would you care to see the walls?
30834Perhaps this was caused by the fairy candle, or perhaps it was Mother Holle''s doing-- who knows?
30834Shall I shoot the wizard?"
30834Should he go first to the Castle of Eppenhain and tell Babette''s foster- parents that he had found out where Babette was imprisoned?
30834So the children grew up happy and good, and what can you want to know more about them than that?
30834Stewed plums would do for pudding; but what about the soup and the joint?
30834Surely it was a bogey hole leading down to the bottomless pit?
30834Surely you have heard of me?"
30834THE DRAGON''S TAIL I wonder if the girls and boys who read these stories, have heard of the charming and romantic town of Eisenach?
30834The little maid was probably Elsa; but where was she?
30834The next day was his birthday, and what do you think he had as a present?
30834The nixy maidens readily complied: was not singing their most natural mode of expressing themselves?
30834The servants watched them with astonishment; they too said:"What next?"
30834Trudel continued,"You are surely not a tree?"
30834WHAT''S THE USE OF IT?
30834Walter could hear the tinkle tinkle of sheep bells below, or was it possible that he could already hear the bells of fairyland ringing?
30834Was it his father come to fetch him home?
30834What can be the use of it?"
30834What could that dreadful gap be in the wall of his room, blacker than the darkness?
30834What had they to live on?
30834What if she were as old and ugly as Fräulein Kunigunde of whom Heinrich von Kleist has written?
30834What is your name, brave youth?"
30834What''s the use of a Christmas tree?
30834What_ did_ they teach you at school?"
30834What_ did_ they teach you at school?"
30834Whatever would your aunts say?"
30834Where are you?"
30834Where could he be?
30834Where could he be?
30834Where is everybody?"
30834Where was the window?
30834Who are these beings in the air With gauzy robes and flowing hair?
30834Who can have given it to us?"
30834Who could it be in this lonely spot?
30834Who knows where the poor creature may have got to in these vast woods?"
30834Who was King Reinhold?
30834Whom do you mean?"
30834Why did you not come in during the shower?"
30834Why do you work for those little beggars?"
30834Why, what do you mean?"
30834Will you bring it home for me, and I will give you all my Christmas cake?
30834Will you let me go with the other boys, it would be such fun?"
30834Will you, O will you?
30834Wo n''t you give me another?"
30834Wood water, Wood wine, Wo n''t you drink it up?"
30834You are my fairy princess-- I love you with all my heart, and I want you to promise me to be my little wife-- will you?"
30834You would_ never_ cut me down, would you?"
30834You_ are_ fond of dreaming, are n''t you?"
30834_ Married or single?_ Here Hansi giggled, and he entered solemnly the word"_ spinster_."
30834_ Occupation?_"Please sir, I go to school and learn my lessons, but I play a good deal too."
30834_ Would_ you like some wood wine?"
30834and do n''t you think you can see just a glimmer of silver through the door?"
30834answered the children,"but where is your wife?
30834did_ you_ hear anything, mother?"
30834he said, making a horribly wry face,"what stuff, child, do you want to make me sick?"
30834how has she repaid me for all my kindness and for all the honours I have conferred on her?"
30834said Norah,"but why?"
30834said both the children,"may we help her dress the salad?"
30834the bells are ringing-- don''t you hear them across the snow?"
30834they said,"whatever shall we do now?"
30834what do you think of that?"
35036And if I do n''t want to tell you? 35036 And what is snow?"
35036And what will happen then?
35036Are you comfortable, Verotchka?
35036Are you my new friend? 35036 Aunty, has no one ever thrown you a bit of seed,"wondered the Canary,"not a single grain?"
35036Aunty, what are you doing?
35036Did n''t I say he died of fright?
35036Did n''t I see you eat a real live baby sparrow? 35036 Did n''t I tell you not to touch those seeds?"
35036Do n''t you know why Rooster screams?
35036Do you want to be a Queen, Little One?
35036Does winter never come here to you?
35036Father, are you here?
35036Heavens, ca n''t you understand? 35036 Hey, Uncle, what are you doing?"
35036How can I? 35036 How can mushrooms be foolish?"
35036How did you get here, Little One?
35036I say, what does this mean?
35036I wonder where these nasty flies come from?
35036If that''s the case, where do I come in?
35036Is n''t it? 35036 Is n''t there a saying,''As wise as a Turkey?''"
35036Is n''t your belly ever filled?
35036Is summer really gone?
35036Is that you, Verotchka? 35036 Like the pebbles in my river?"
35036Master Sparrow, what is all this about? 35036 Now tell me, is there anything more delicious than this treat after working busily all morning?"
35036Now, have you seen for yourself?
35036Oh, you Cock- Eye,called one,"do you mean to say you are n''t even afraid of a wolf?"
35036Tell me, who drank the milk?
35036Then you do respect me?
35036To eat the Last Fly means to wish me well, hey?
35036What about the Gander? 35036 What do you want with her?"
35036What do you want, Comrade?
35036What do you want, you good- for- nothing?
35036What does it look like?
35036What does it mean to be a Queen?
35036What if it does rain? 35036 What is going to happen to me?
35036What is n''t true?
35036What is winter?
35036What makes you think that?
35036What sort of Christmas tree is that, Grandfather? 35036 What sort of bird is this that is afraid of rain, wind and cold?"
35036What''s all this?
35036What''s happened? 35036 Where are you going?"
35036Where do you come from?
35036Which of those two is right?
35036Who are you?
35036Who are you?
35036Who does n''t know that the Queen of Flowers is a Rose-- delicate, fragrant, marvellous? 35036 Who does n''t know?
35036Who found the worm? 35036 Who is lying?"
35036Why do n''t you catch mice if you''re hungry? 35036 Why do n''t you fly along with the others?"
35036Why is she yellow?
35036Why?
35036Will we really fly across the sea?
35036Will you tell me why the foolish hens are better than I? 35036 You call this singing?"
35036Am I not right, ladies and gentlemen?"
35036Am I not right, ladies and gentlemen?"
35036Am I not right?
35036Am I not right?
35036Am I not right?"
35036Am I right?
35036Am I right?"
35036And then-- heavens!--what was that?
35036And what happens?
35036Are n''t you afraid of taking cold?"
35036Are you still alive?"
35036Bread, is n''t it?
35036But Dr. Carl Ivanovitch almost shouted:"Does that mean that the rest of us are monsters?
35036But first you must answer me-- what do you think of me?"
35036But he was up again, patting his bruised sides and saying:"Who is the winner?
35036But how about the sparrows?"
35036But it is n''t really the Gander, for, after all, can one be angry with a fool?
35036But no, how can they?
35036But what if I am hungry?"
35036But where is he, our Fearless One?"
35036But who ever visits your roof?"
35036Can you see why the foolish parrot is better than I?
35036Cook would rush in, wringing her hands, and crying:"Whatever shall I do now?
35036Could she have forgotten him?
35036Did you hear him scream at me the other day?
35036Do n''t I know that, too, is a fly- catcher?"
35036Do n''t you see I''m busy?
35036Do n''t you think so?"
35036Do you hear?"
35036Do you want to live with me?
35036Doctor, will you see if I am still alive?"
35036For instance, what do you think of this picture?
35036Have n''t I seen you tell stories to a roasted spring chicken stolen from the kitchen?
35036Have n''t you noticed how foolish he is?"
35036Have n''t you noticed that I''m nicer than other birds and much prettier, too?
35036Have you ever noticed the man they call Papa?"
35036He crept out of the hole, shook himself, squinted his eyes, and said:"And what did you think, you cowards?"
35036He was so kind, this old man; he picked her up in his arms and covered her with his fur coat, asking her again:"How did you come here, Little Girl?"
35036He woke up his wife and said:"Am I not the wisest of all?"
35036How are you?"
35036How can you know loneliness?
35036How do you expect to make a living?"
35036I am a little ashamed to talk about myself... but how can I help it?
35036I''m lying?
35036III How did it all happen?
35036If they fed anyone, why should it not have been a real bird like me?
35036Is it possible that you do not recognize Porcupine-- Porcupine Gray?
35036Is n''t it too warm to be out in the sun?
35036Is n''t she splendid?
35036Is n''t that simple?"
35036Is this just?
35036Is this not my birthday?
35036Just refuse to tell you?"
35036Ladies and gentlemen, have you heard him?"
35036Master Stickelback in his turn would wonder at Master Sparrow:"Do n''t you ever get tired of flying?
35036Matryona Ivanovna, tired of lying in a faint, opened one eye and asked:"Where am I?
35036Mosquito Long- Nose jumped out from under the leaf and called:"What happened?
35036Now are you satisfied?"
35036Of what use are they?
35036She came hopping along from under a bush and seeing Mishka in such difficulty, she said:"Why do you bother yourself needlessly, Master Mishka?
35036So you want to know what this is?"
35036The bear, Mishka, is sucking his paw, and the old sparrow flies up to the window, pecks the pane with his bill, and asks,"How soon, now?"
35036The drowsy cat, Vaska, sitting on a fence, almost fell off with fright at the noise and growled:"What is the matter with you, Blackhead?
35036They were perplexed and asked,"But what about Mishka?
35036This pretty little rascal, towards the very end of the dinner, whispered to Anya:"Anya, who do you think is the prettiest of all here?"
35036Well, you lie- on- your- side cat?
35036What are you doing here?"
35036What are you happy about?"
35036What can be clumsier and heavier than a human being?
35036What do you mean by lying to me?"
35036What do you mean, Yasha?
35036What does all this mean?"
35036What had happened?
35036What has happened?"
35036What is this?
35036What sort of beast are you?
35036What will you do when the real frost comes and the snow falls?"
35036When were you born?"
35036Where is he now?"
35036Where is justice?"
35036Where is the birthday child?
35036Wherefore?
35036Whither away?"
35036Who caught a mouse last week?
35036Who dares to get into my flower?
35036Who dares to sip my sweet nectar?
35036Who does not know that?
35036Who had a scratch the full length of his nose?
35036Who is right?
35036Who pulled out two of my finest tail feathers yesterday?
35036Who''s there?"
35036Why are they angry?
35036Why are you making all this noise?"
35036Why are you screaming?"
35036Why does he smoke that pipe?
35036Why does one of your eyes look as if someone had punched you?"
35036Why not have a little joke?
35036Why quarrel?
35036Why?
35036Will you tell me why there are pikes in the world?
35036Would someone like to try?"
35036You and the sparrows-- how much do you need?
35036You like sugar, do n''t you?"
35036You wish to burn the Last Fly, do you?
35036[ Illustration]"How was I to know you were sitting in the chimney?"
35036[ Illustration]"What were you doing in a cage?"
35036could any one take offense at it?
30400A Prince?
30400Ah,said King Grumbelo, nodding his royal head approvingly;"and is she very foolish as well?"
30400Ah,said her Majesty, smiling wisely,"does she seem happy at the back of the sun?"
30400Am I?
30400And how do you think you are going to get it?
30400And we wo n''t let that stupid magician spoil our real houses, will we?
30400And what is the wymps''gift?
30400And where,asked Molly,"is the royal palace?"
30400And why have I no idea in my head? 30400 And will you promise not to call me sulky when I do n''t feel inclined to talk?"
30400And will you promise not to mind when I do n''t want to play any more?
30400And you do n''t mind my going without you, do you, Honey dear?
30400And you, little lady?
30400Are there really such people as that in the world? 30400 Are they beautiful, too?"
30400Are you live dolls, or fairies, or just other children for me to play with?
30400Are you really a fairy godmother? 30400 Are you really wymps?"
30400Are you so beautiful, then?
30400Are you the magician who has given a castle in the air to a Princess in a gold and silver frock with a bright little crown on her head?
30400Are you there, little pine dwarfs?
30400Are you used to them?
30400Are_ you_ tired of living in yours, then?
30400Bent?
30400But how is it that my palace is so bright while Wympland is so dull?
30400Ca n''t you guess?
30400Ca n''t you keep still?
30400Can we do nothing to make you stop with us?
30400Can you tell me who lives here?
30400Curious? 30400 Dear, dear,"complained the dragon;"do you mean to say you''ve come back again?"
30400Did n''t I tell you she was n''t a Princess?
30400Did she tell you that I came and hid myself here on purpose, because I heard you were looking for a Princess and I wanted you to find me?
30400Do the people who live in your houses never build castles in the air?
30400Do they build houses in your country to be looked at? 30400 Do you always wish for what you want?"
30400Do you expect me to go on playing with the same toys for ever? 30400 Do you feel afraid?"
30400Do you know why I have come all this way to find you?
30400Do you know,continued the Prince,"that you have all the gifts of Fairyland?
30400Do you pretend you''ve never seen her, The dainty Lady Emmelina? 30400 Do you really mean it?"
30400Do you suppose I have n''t coaxed it out of my dragon long ago? 30400 Do you think any one else would have been so much trouble to catch?
30400Do you think so? 30400 Do you think that will make her come out from her house of rose leaves?"
30400Do you think you could make a little less noise?
30400Do?
30400Does a beautiful Princess, the most beautiful you have ever seen, live inside the house over there?
30400Does anybody live inside the house?
30400Does no one know where the Prime Minister''s son has gone?
30400Down there?
30400Feel all right?
30400Have n''t you got any more sons?
30400Have we been too rough with you, after all? 30400 Have you found your Prince?"
30400Have you lost your head, too, may I ask?
30400Have you seen my castle in the air?
30400How am I to get through that?
30400How can a man be a poet if his face is smooth and his hands are white? 30400 How can anything be beautiful that keeps out the sun and the air?
30400How dare you? 30400 How did you get here?"
30400How do the fairies interfere?
30400How do the shoemaker and his wife get on without her?
30400I told you she never spoke; why did n''t you listen to me? 30400 If I do,"said Martin,"will you promise not to be cross when I run faster than you do?"
30400If I were to give_ you_ a present, do you think you would know what to choose?
30400If you do find her,continued the grasshopper,"do you think the Princess will play with you again?"
30400If you feel unhappy you_ must_ cry, must n''t you?
30400Is it so beautiful, then, your castle in the air?
30400Is it the fairies''doing?
30400Is it?
30400Is not that enough?
30400Is there nothing else here that is beautiful?
30400It has ever so many rooms in it,--a large room to laugh in and a small room to cry in--"To cry in?
30400It''s all very well to tell any one to go straight on, but how am I to get across the sea?
30400Lady Whimsical,he said, very gently and humbly,"will it please you to smile on me once more?
30400Matter?
30400May I ask,said Bobolink, rolling his purple eyes about,"if you came all this way on purpose to make remarks about me?"
30400May I come and help you to build real houses, for a change?
30400May n''t I laugh?
30400May she do as she likes?
30400Must she really go, your Majesty?
30400Now that you have found her, why do you complain?
30400Oh, did n''t you? 30400 Shall I tell Molly what she is to do when she gets there, please your Majesty?"
30400She does not_ wish_ to be my Queen?
30400Supposing I were to prick my finger, what should I do if there was n''t a room to cry in? 30400 Supposing,"continued Queer,"that you were to tell us the kind of things that a real Queen would like us to do?"
30400Tell me,said King Grumbelo, eagerly,"are you the Wise Woman of the Wood?"
30400That?
30400Then why are you not building houses now?
30400Then why did you hide her in the first place?
30400Then why do you lose him?
30400Then why has she never spoken to me?
30400Then why should I be glad because I can see you?
30400Then, who are you?
30400This room?
30400To be serious? 30400 WILL YOU COME AND PLAY WITH ME, LITTLE WISDOM?"
30400We''ll go back, shall we?
30400Well, well,said the King, impatiently,"perhaps you can tell me to whom the house belongs?"
30400What are you laughing at?
30400What are you making such a noise for?
30400What are you saying?
30400What are you thinking about, eh? 30400 What are your real houses like?"
30400What does it all mean?
30400What else will you have in your castle?
30400What is an idea?
30400What is it like inside your castle?
30400What is it like?
30400What is she to do if she feels cross?
30400What is that noise? 30400 What is that?"
30400What is the good of waiting to tell me something I could have found out for myself?
30400What is the meaning of it all?
30400What is the use of feeling happy if you may n''t laugh?
30400What is the use of having a lot of things lying about that you do n''t want? 30400 What is the use of knowing just as much as everybody else?
30400What is the use of my being a Queen if I am not to be obeyed?
30400What is the use of telling us we are unhappy?
30400What is your profession?
30400What more can you want?
30400What sort of Prince?
30400What will become of the country,said his Majesty,"if the boy does not learn to be serious?"
30400What will the Professor of Practical Jokes say, when you come home without the Princess you went out to find?
30400What will you have?
30400What would be the use of that?
30400What?
30400Whatever is the matter?
30400When?
30400Where are all the other wymps?
30400Where does the Wise Woman of the Wood live?
30400Where has she gone?
30400Where is she?
30400Who are you, and what do you want?
30400Who are you, and what do you want?
30400Who are you, and what do you want?
30400Who are you, and what do you want?
30400Who are you, and what do you want?
30400Who are you, little boy, and where do you come from?
30400Who are you? 30400 Who are you?"
30400Who are you?
30400Who is Martin?
30400Who is she?
30400Why are all your stories so much alike, Honey?
30400Why ca n''t you both stay with me? 30400 Why did you bewitch the Princess Pansy?"
30400Why do n''t you say something?
30400Why do you congratulate me on being able to see you?
30400Why do you wish to have an idea in your head?
30400Why does the Prince always go out into the world to find a Princess? 30400 Why must I keep perfectly quiet and speak in a whisper?"
30400Why must I stop?
30400Why not?
30400Why not?
30400Why not?
30400Why should all the winds be playing with my castle in the air?
30400Will nothing induce you to speak just one word to me?
30400Will some one give place to the Poet?
30400Will they not be surprised?
30400Will you be kind enough to go?
30400Will you come and play with me, Little Wisdom?
30400Wo n''t you stop here always?
30400Would it do,asked the traveller in the dusty brown cloak,"if you were to have a Prince without a castle?"
30400Would you like it here, or will you have it a little nearer the sun? 30400 Would you like to have a piece of cake?"
30400You do n''t suppose I''ve been a crab and a gorse bush and an iceberg and a silver birch tree for nothing, do you?
30400You will not cry any more, now that you have the Lady Emmelina to play with, will you?
30400You wo n''t be long before you find it, will you, Martin?
30400Your ridiculous name is enough to make any one giddy without--"What did the Lady Whimsical say?
30400A nightmare, for instance, or a thunder- storm?"
30400And now that you have caught me, what can I do for you?"
30400And there is n''t a chocolate tree in the whole of the garden; did you ever know such a stupid garden?
30400And you wo n''t tell him, will you, Honey dear?"
30400Another?"
30400Are you sure there is nothing else you would like better?
30400Besides, what is there to be afraid of?"
30400Can no one invent a new toy for the Princess Petulant?"
30400Can you not do something for us?"
30400Can you not show me some ugliness for a change?
30400Come in, Poet; why do you stay so long outside?"
30400Did they tell you anything interesting?
30400Do n''t you know that, if you were to enter another person''s castle in the air, it would vanish away like a puff of smoke?"
30400Do n''t you think we are very amusing?"
30400Do n''t you think you can find me a new toy to play with, Martin?"
30400Do you know the King?
30400Do you like jam or cake best?
30400Do you mean to say my dragon did not tell you_ that_, too?"
30400Do you mind?"
30400Do you think it will make you angry?"
30400Do you think that was it?
30400Do you think you can bear to hear it?"
30400Do you think you can do this?"
30400Do you?"
30400Does she give parties?
30400Does she invite many people?
30400Does the Queen dress well?
30400Have you anything else to complain of?"
30400Have you been to court?
30400Have you got one in your head, father?"
30400He wo n''t know I am not a Princess, will he?
30400How did you get here?
30400How old are you?
30400I am quite satisfied with myself: is it possible that the country is not equally satisfied?"
30400I happened to look in as I was passing; and when I found she was gone I thought I''d just wait and tell you she was gone, do n''t you see?"
30400I really hope you have no objection?"
30400If we try to be less noisy, will you not stay with us a little longer?"
30400Is it a new game?"
30400Is n''t it fun?"
30400Is there anything beautiful here?"
30400Is there no other way of getting an idea?"
30400May I come in and see what it is like?"
30400Now, Capricious, what have they done to you?"
30400Strange, was n''t it?"
30400Surely the pine dwarfs do n''t live in a place like this?
30400Surely, you can want nothing so useless as that?"
30400That would be something like a Prince, would n''t it?"
30400Then, why did you invite me?"
30400What are you doing here?
30400What do you do all day if you do n''t play?"
30400What do you want?
30400What else is wrong with your castle?"
30400What have you come back for?"
30400What is it now?"
30400What is that other child doing, over there?"
30400What is that?
30400What is the use of an expensive government and a well- dressed court, if there are not enough toys for her to play with?
30400What is the use of children who do nothing but lose themselves?
30400What is your favourite sweet?
30400What is your mother like?
30400What is your name?
30400What must I do to get there?"
30400What name?"
30400What''s the matter with your health that you want every one to drink it up?
30400When I said,''a small room to cry in,''I did n''t really mean a room to_ cry_ in, did I?
30400Where are you going?
30400Where do you come from?
30400Who is your father?
30400Whom did you meet on the way?
30400Why are you in such a hurry to go, if you love me?"
30400Why ca n''t you be quiet?
30400Why do n''t you answer?
30400Why should n''t the Princess go and find the Prince, for a change?
30400Will you come home with me?"
30400Will you please show me how to get there, dear little wymps?"
30400Wo n''t you really stay and play with me?"
30400You do n''t feel cross now, do you?"
30400[ Illustration:"WILL YOU COME AND PLAY WITH ME, LITTLE WISDOM?"]
30400cried Princess Petulant, clapping her hands;"do you_ really_ know where Martin is?"
30400she ventured to say;"and will the wymps be free again to plague us with their tiresome wympish jokes?"
17521A hot iron? 17521 Abandon Everychild?"
17521Ah, who is not a hireling, when a king may have his way? 17521 Ah,"replied Cinderella''s mother,"I''ve done that this long while, I think-- but how was I to let her know?
17521Alas, what hope is there for me, now that I am blind? 17521 All that has been closest?"
17521Am I-- are we-- dreaming?
17521And I suppose you know where we''re going to get it?
17521And I suppose you''ll tell me you''ve been working hard all day?
17521And do you never frighten them?
17521And how would you take my life, dear Hubert?
17521And is she still waiting?
17521And shall I find them?
17521And shall we wait for you?
17521And so you have finished your nap, daughter?
17521And so you have n''t been able to think of the best thing of all?
17521And that?
17521And the one with the red nose?
17521And the others?
17521And then you got the little doves?
17521And then,asked Everychild,"were you not unhappy?"
17521And this dear little girl with you,asked Cinderella, who had been walking side by side with Everychild,"who is she?"
17521And we must part?
17521And what about the others?
17521And what do they do then?
17521And what else?
17521And when we find it,said Cinderella,"--then what shall we do?"
17521And-- and did n''t you hear any music, either?
17521And-- and will you go with me?
17521Are you all alone, Everychild?
17521At last, Everychild?
17521At least,he said,"you''ll scarcely contend that Everychild marries the Sleeping Beauty?"
17521Bid farewell to them?
17521Bored? 17521 But a sling- shot, at least-- of course you carry a fine sling- shot around with you?"
17521But how did you ever get anything to wear? 17521 But how does she manage about breakfast?"
17521But if they all hate you so,he said,"why do they all sit there now as if they did not care?"
17521But not-- not here?
17521But oh, dear lady,he cried,"could you not have helped me to know you in the beginning?"
17521But to wish for things, and never to get them?
17521But who wore your clothes before you got them?
17521But why?
17521But would n''t you find people out if they did that?
17521But,said Everychild,"she-- she does n''t look very-- she looks rather-- rather fearful, does n''t she?"
17521Can a king love any one better than he loves himself?
17521Child, what do you know of such things?
17521Could you?
17521Did n''t it seem to you to get much lighter?
17521Do n''t you remember?
17521Do they?
17521Do you live far away?
17521Do you mean,demanded Everychild,"that she whips all of you with her hand?"
17521Do you not wish to keep it?
17521Do you think so? 17521 Do you think so?"
17521Friends?
17521Have I no friend here?
17521Have I-- have I ever met you before?
17521He has spared me-- yet to what end?
17521Hirelings?
17521How often does this happen?
17521How shall I slay him?
17521I do n''t know, I''m sure,said Cinderella; and with perfect candor she added,"Are n''t_ you_ bored?
17521I suppose there are n''t so many of you at your house?
17521I suppose,he said after a thoughtful pause,"Blunderbore was a very wicked giant-- like the Giant Fear?"
17521I wonder why?
17521I?
17521Is he somebody who belongs to you?
17521Is it possible that there is anywhere a person who does not recognize Little Bo- Peep?
17521Is it?
17521Is n''t it a good road to walk on?
17521Is that the word?
17521It does make you feel that way, does n''t it?
17521It''s fine to hear the owl make a noise like that, is n''t it?
17521It''s rather a funny house, is n''t it?
17521Lighter? 17521 Lord bless the child, what''s coming over him?"
17521Maybe he''ll go away after awhile?
17521My fine clothes, mother?
17521Not happy?
17521Of what?
17521Oh, it''s you?
17521Say you so?
17521So many children?
17521So you''ve come, have you?
17521Some sort of limb?
17521Tell me-- what was it you wished to know?
17521The Masked Lady?
17521The best thing of all?
17521Then if they do n''t amount to a great deal, is there anything that does?
17521Trifles?
17521Was it truly?
17521Was she so beautiful, then?
17521Well, Cinderella?
17521Well?
17521What I started out to find?
17521What ails you?
17521What are you doing?
17521What did you wish for breakfast?
17521What do you suppose she is going to do to you?
17521What have you done to me?
17521What is it?
17521What is this strange place?
17521What statement?
17521What!--Shakespeare dead?
17521What''s been the matter?
17521Where are you going, little boy?
17521Where to?
17521Why not?
17521Why?
17521Will no one take my part?
17521Wo n''t_ you_ make a wish?
17521Yes, Everychild?
17521Yes, Everychild?
17521Yes, I know,she said,"but where----""How should_ you_ know?"
17521You do n''t know me, eh? 17521 You have found her house?"
17521You have n''t forgotten, have you?
17521You mean a snitch?
17521You will go with me?
17521You?
17521Your friends?
17521Your wit?
17521_ I_ give_ her_ anything?
17521_ I_ shall slay him?
17521?"
17521?"
17521A dutiful child?
17521A little lad like that?
17521A terrible bludgeon then, no doubt?"
17521And Everychild replied, with a little of that kindly condescension which a married man feels toward a youth,"Well, my boy?"
17521And I never see a beautiful lady without stopping to ask myself in a whisper,''Can it be she?''"
17521And I suppose you think it is quite right for Everychild to come tagging home after you, making work for other people?"
17521And I thought to myself,''How can any one walk bravely along a road like this?''"
17521And all she says is,''For goodness''sake, do n''t shout so;''or''_ Must_ you make that noise when you''re eating?''
17521And as for the trees-- what has the world produced that can match them?"
17521And bending tenderly above the form of Little Bo- Peep she asked,"And why do you weep so bitterly, Little Bo- Peep?"
17521And he added,"Is she here?"
17521And if so, why should they not hope to find her elsewhere?
17521And in such a case, how could one be happy?
17521And may I take it?"
17521And so you were getting ready to defy me-- hey?"
17521And the Sleeping Beauty?
17521And the prince replied indulgently,"With you, Everychild?
17521And then she said, in a voice which would have set the birds to singing, if there had been any near by--"Is it you, my prince?
17521And then the Old Woman cried out quite alarmingly,"Are you coming, or shall I have to fetch you?"
17521And then, falteringly,"Hubert-- when you were a boy, were you ever kept hidden away as if you meant ill to every one?"
17521And then, very politely( to Jack),"Wo n''t you sit down?"
17521And then-- then what happened?
17521And then-- what have we here?
17521And to the giant he added courteously,"Wo n''t you sit down and rest awhile, Will o''Dreams?"
17521And what do you think?
17521And what have we here?
17521And where are you going?"
17521But the king repeated, musingly and darkly--"Can a king love any one better than he loves himself?"
17521But they are worlds, are n''t they?"
17521But was this to be the last of her?
17521But whither are you going?"
17521But who ever heard of Old Father Hubbard?
17521Can you not flee and escape from the wrath and fear of your uncle the King?"
17521Cinderella said,"Your mothers?"
17521Come, Sire-- this boy who knew no father save you: if I give him back into your keeping can you promise to love him better than you love yourself?"
17521Come, mother and father of Hansel and Grettel: can you promise that hereafter you will love your children better than you love yourselves?"
17521Could I have one?"
17521Could such a strange wish be made successfully?
17521Dare you deny this?"
17521Did I not bid you be swift, that the very blood in my veins should not turn to water?
17521Did anything like it ever happen before?"
17521Did he ever tell you where his home is?"
17521Did n''t we?"
17521Did you never hear of my seven- league hoots?
17521Do n''t you know you''re not allowed to sit on the ground in your best dress?"
17521Do n''t you see that if we''re not going back we''ll have to make rules for ourselves from now on?
17521Do you hear?"
17521Do you suppose we are deceived by your make- believe friendliness?
17521Does she wear a mask?
17521During that meal which has become historic, where did she sit?
17521Everychild could not help asking,"What_ is_ a tuffet?"
17521Everychild inquired in amazement:"All of you?"
17521Everychild knew it was going to be something disagreeable, but he only said,"What is it?"
17521Everychild was charmed by the beauty of his voice; but he was startled when Jack cried out sternly,--"And what are you doing here?"
17521Everychild''s heart prompted him to say impulsively,"And you''ll go on with us?
17521Had she fallen?
17521Had she hidden behind a tree?
17521Hansel was heard to say,"Oh, yes, I get enough to eat now: but who knows how soon I shall be required to go without eating?"
17521Have n''t you been told how she whips us something terrible?"
17521Have they been trying to lose you too?"
17521He added in a tone of apology,"Just make the best of it, wo n''t you, if she''s ugly?
17521He added in a voice which faltered just enough to make his question seem in good taste,"Have you got your lamp?"
17521He gained the side of the giant; and then-- what is this?
17521He had refused to believe what Mr. Literal had said; yet what was the meaning of what the giant was now saying?
17521He had trouble finding the right words; but at length he began,"Your mother-- does she whip you?
17521He said nervously,"Had n''t we better go away and come back some other time?"
17521He said:"It was good of your parents, was n''t it, to put your best clothes on you when they meant to lose you?"
17521He seemed so troubled as he said this that Everychild asked him,"But you, Aladdin-- why are you making a journey on the Road of Troubled Children?"
17521He would have descended the stairs then, but some one brushed against him lightly and whispered,"Why do you waste your time in there?"
17521How could one go on speaking to a person who would not even look?
17521How could she know what all the other children had dreamed, since it did not appear that they had told her of their dreams?
17521How may I have them again to keep?
17521How shall I really escape?"
17521How should it cause a door to open?
17521How-- er-- how should you say he dies?"
17521I caught you asleep, did I?"
17521If there was no one ahead of you, how could they make anything over for you?"
17521In the same great voice he said,"You know me, I suppose?--the Giant Fear who always makes Everychild tremble?"
17521Is it not so?"
17521Is there no other way for me to go?"
17521It was always:''Why do n''t they go home for their meals?''
17521It was rather difficult for him to speak; but he managed to say:"Daddy, do you think you could fix it for me?"
17521Jack the Giant Killer replied smilingly to Hansel:"Lose me?
17521Need I tell you what had occurred to her?
17521Oh, do n''t you see anything at all?
17521Or was she speaking only of the present, without reference to the past?
17521She did not wait for a reply, but asked another question:"Is something wrong with your kite?"
17521She gasped an instant and then she cried out angrily,"Good- by?
17521She replied to him in a low voice:"And by what sign or token should you recognize her, if you were to encounter her again after all these years?"
17521Surely he had seen this boy before-- but where?
17521Tell me, why must I take my hand away?"
17521The band paused and Everychild asked,"Why are you weeping, Little Boy Blue?"
17521The first attendant found courage to say:"Bind him?
17521The giant had seen him at last, and he called out pleasantly,"You here too, Everychild?
17521The king was frowning mightily and saying to himself,"Can a king love any one better than he loves himself?
17521The way you ought to be able to handle a sword-- I suppose you carry a sword, of course?"
17521The wonder of what?"
17521Then Cinderella asked:"Why dare you not go home?"
17521Then facing him again she demanded,"Do you know what the truth is?
17521Then he asked,"But is n''t it all very-- very vulgar?"
17521They glanced at each other across Cinderella as if to say,"Shall we tell her?"
17521To this the Old Woman retorted:"Who does the whipping around here, I''d like to know?
17521Wagner, is n''t it?"
17521Was she afraid of him?
17521What did she mean by that?
17521What happened then?
17521What if there were a few good giants?--and what if a good giant should encounter Jack?
17521What is his name?"
17521What is your decision?
17521What was there I could have given her?
17521When he ate his Christmas pie, where was he sitting?
17521When he faltered she added,"But have you found what you started out to find?"
17521Who are you?"
17521Who can call his honor his own, when a crown is counted a more sacred thing than a man''s soul?"
17521Who can tell what is the best thing of all?
17521Who is forever disagreeing with you, and wanting things done in a different way?
17521Who winds up by tattling?
17521Whom could she be, that she should know so many things without having to be told?
17521With a great effort he asked--"And she-- will she befriend me when I have gone from my father and mother?"
17521With me and the giant and----""But where?"
17521You do n''t mean to argue really that Everychild is treated unkindly?"
17521You see?
17521You''ll not deny, I suppose, that you get ravenously hungry three times a day?"
17521You''ll not get tired and leave us on the way?"
17521You''ve heard about that, have n''t you?"
17521You''ve not told him, then, that your mother is Vice- President of the Mother Goose Auxiliary of the Amalgamated Associations of Notable Ladies?"
17521_ She sniffed as if there were a fire somewhere as she said to her son,"And who is this, pray?
17521_ What_?
17521_ what period should you say she belongs to_?"
17521and shall I never see them again?"
17521and why do they?"
17521did you ever try hiding her whip?"
17521did you suppose for an instant you could deceive me?"
17521do you know what would happen, if certain persons came into it while I was there?"
17521do you recall how, when your head once ached, I put my handkerchief about it to comfort you?
17521he asked;"I wonder why?"
17521he cried;"you will leave all that makes you happy here and go with me into possible perils?
17521he said;"does it help you to get what you want?
17521how shall I put it in your language?
17521is there no other way?"
17521or''Ca n''t you walk without shaking the floor like that?''
17521or''Why do n''t they fill their own curtains with tobacco smoke?''
17521or''Why do n''t they track dirt into their own houses?''
17521she echoed passionately,"trifles?"
17521she exclaimed incredulously,"How shall you do it?"
17521you know the kind of boy who is forever tagging along-- when you want to go anywhere, I mean?
45279And what do you think he did? 45279 Are you not glad to see your grandfather again?"
45279But can we find our way?
45279But how could he reach the sun?
45279But how could they get there?
45279But the owl?
45279But why is the Fisher spread out flat that way, in the sky, with an arrow sticking through his tail?
45279Did you forget about the Dormouse?
45279Do you know how to get to it?
45279Do you see something that I can not see?
45279Have you nothing better to do? 45279 How are you, Ka- bib- onokka?
45279Iagoo-- can you tell me--- were the mountains always here?
45279Is it really true, then,asked the boy,"that up beyond the sky is a pleasant warm land, where Winter only stays for a few moons?"
45279Is this also the work of Wabeno, the magician?
45279Like Eagle Feather and me?
45279Now,said O- jeeg, when they had finished smoking,"which of you can jump the highest?"
45279Tell me, my daughter,he said to her one day,"Is it your wish never to marry?
45279What are you laughing at?
45279What impudent, two- legged creature is this who dares to linger here long after the wild goose and the heron have winged their way to the south? 45279 What is it, Morning Glory?"
45279What is it, Osseo?
45279What is it?
45279What must I do?
45279When was that?
45279Why fatigue myself with running? 45279 Why should an Indian bother his head with planting corn, when he can draw his bow and kill a good fat deer?"
45279Will O- pee- chee, the robin, never come again?
45279Will he not cry out?
45279You mean the furry little animal, something like a fox? 45279 ''Is it true?'' 45279 And_ why_ did he always sit down with his left foot tucked up under him? 45279 But how would this enable him to brave the anger of the terrible North Wind? 45279 But where? 45279 Could he not beat them all when it came to playing ball or quoits, and were not the maidens all in love with his good looks? 45279 Could this be Osseo? 45279 Could you manage to climb up there and cut me some?
45279Did I ever tell you the story of the Big Rock-- how it rose and rose, and carried the little boy and girl up among the clouds?"
45279Did you ever hear of such impudence?
45279Do you know the name we give it?"
45279Do you suppose if he tried hard enough, he could get through the sky, and bring the Summer down to us?"
45279Do you think he can hurt us?"
45279Do you think you can change yourself into one of us?"
45279Do you think you can manage to climb over it?"
45279Does Man- a- bo- zho keep you sitting there because you are so handsome?
45279Had the spoiled little thing lost her mind?
45279How could he get a warm coat?
45279How did fire find its way into the wood, so that an Indian can get it out again by rubbing two sticks together?
45279How many fingers had he counted-- and how-- many-- stars--?
45279How shall I aid you, my Master?"
45279How should he know what lovers can do when they put their heads together?
45279If the birds flew back to Earth, and left him there, what would his grandfather say?
45279Is Marten another name for it?"
45279Is there nothing I can do to make them grow?"
45279O, Iagoo, would it not be dreadful?"
45279Or was it the Puk- Wudjies mocking her?
45279Shall I tell you about it?"
45279So who can tell but that I may help you?"
45279The only question worth asking is: How are we to get them down again?"
45279The parents wandered far and wide saying:"Antelope, have you seen our little boy and girl?
45279Then turning to the girls:"Are you not glad to see me safely back?"
45279Was he still on the wild beach, waiting for his brother?
45279Was it a sign?
45279Was it perhaps the fairies?
45279Was there a wedding to be celebrated, or some feast following a successful hunt-- then who but Grasshopper could so well supply the entertainment?
45279What could be keeping her so long?
45279What do you say to that?"
45279What do_ I_ care for old Ka- bib- on- okka?"
45279What is best to do?"
45279What was it that Neen- i- zu saw and heard, during these lonely walks in the secret places of the hills?
45279What was it that seemed to move along the edge of the mysterious woods?
45279What was it?
45279What''s wrong?''
45279Where did the robin get his red breast?
45279Where was this Happy Land-- this place without pain or care?
45279Which of all the animals will dare to cut the cord?''
45279Why is it?"
45279Why should he spend his strength on a weak little mouse?"
45279Why was Coyote, the prairie wolf, so much cleverer than the other animals; and why was he always looking behind him when he ran?
45279Why, indeed?
45279Will you help me?"
45279Would she, too, change into a bird, and be lost to him?
45279he asked,"and are you not pleased with my handsome young friend here?"
45279he asked,''that you and I are the only persons living on earth?
20552Alas, my darling, how can I help tearing my hair and making myself bald, when my little mouse is dead?
20552And do people see the person who calls them?
20552And what is that?
20552And you found Petru at the bottom of the well?
20552Are n''t you thirsty, Costan?
20552Are you afraid?
20552Are you from Satan''s kingdom, you scare- crow?
20552Are you telling the truth?
20552Brother Petru, this is a wicked world!--wouldn''t it be better for you to give us the water to carry? 20552 But how are you going to carry them home?"
20552But how will you carry the water to the house, then?
20552But suppose I do n''t know how, my darling?
20552But what shall I do with you?
20552But where shall I send him, wife? 20552 But your father, what is his name?"
20552By force? 20552 Can you make apples grow on wolf''s- bane?"
20552Can you make the bat sing in a sweet voice?
20552Can you prove,asked the emperor,"that you are the girl and no one else?"
20552Can you squeeze buttermilk out of the stone?
20552Children,said the griffin, angrily,"you have n''t eaten the little girl, what does this mean?"
20552Dear me,she said,"why do you trouble your head about it?
20552Did n''t I always say that there was something the matter with the accursed beast?
20552Did you bite me?
20552Did you drink the wine?
20552Did you drive me out of the country with scorn and mockery?
20552Did you eat the bread?
20552Did you empty my dishes of food?
20552Did you hear? 20552 Did you pour out my wine?"
20552Did you throw me among the knives?
20552Do all these flocks and herds belong to you?
20552Do n''t you hear how he is calling me? 20552 Do n''t you know what it was?
20552Do n''t you see that the moon is directly in my way?
20552Do you see this stone?
20552Do you understand?
20552Good morning; but how did you sleep last night?
20552H''m,said the dragon:"where did you come from, that you screech at me so?"
20552Has any foe crossed the frontiers of my country?
20552Have n''t I already told you once that it wo n''t stand so? 20552 How did Holy Friday break the jug?"
20552How did she become a poultry maid?
20552How have I wrested the empire from my brothers?
20552How is he coming? 20552 How is it that this sacred church can not be completed?"
20552How is that possible?
20552How ought I to have gone?
20552How shall we ride?
20552How? 20552 How?"
20552If it is n''t my business, whose affair should it be?
20552Is any body coming?
20552Is he prospering?
20552Is it hard for you, brother?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is it you, master?
20552Is n''t the cow a good one? 20552 Might not this boy be useful to us?"
20552Now strike the Welwa on the mouth with the bridle?
20552Oh, my dear bird, how can I help tearing my beard, when my little child has drowned itself in the pot of porridge and is dead?
20552Or did a handsomer, richer, and more sensible youth follow you?
20552Or do you want me to fling the club into the moon?
20552Remain what you are, but who are you? 20552 So you do n''t heed my advice?
20552Sorry? 20552 Tell me now, my dear Ileane,"he said,"did you throw me into the cellar?"
20552There it is,cried Jack in terror,"did n''t I say that would happen?"
20552To whom do these estates belong, my friend?
20552What ails me?
20552What ails you, master, that you stand there as if you were stupefied?
20552What am I to do?
20552What are you crying about, my son?
20552What are you doing there?
20552What are you doing?
20552What are you doing?
20552What business is it of yours?
20552What can be the use of telling you things that would make you sorrowful too?
20552What can this be?
20552What could have happened to the little girl? 20552 What do you command?"
20552What do you want?
20552What do you want?
20552What does this mean?
20552What else shall I give you?
20552What is eight?
20552What is five?
20552What is four?
20552What is going on out there?
20552What is it-- what is it? 20552 What is it?
20552What is it?
20552What is it?
20552What is nine?
20552What is one?
20552What is seven?
20552What is the village where you belong called?
20552What is three?
20552What is your name?
20552What news do you bring?
20552What shall I do to you if you break your promise?
20552What shall I do with the wreaths?
20552What shall I give you to eat? 20552 What should be the matter?
20552What troubles you, dear wife, that you sit there drooping like a frost- bitten bud in the sunlight?
20552What was that?
20552What was that?
20552What''s this?
20552Where did you come from?
20552Where did you leave your horse?
20552Where did you put the flower, and what have you done with the bird?
20552Where shall we go?
20552Who is annoying him?
20552Who is coming?
20552Who is fighting with the hounds? 20552 Who knows where it may be concealed?
20552Who told you to ask me that? 20552 Why are you standing there?"
20552Why are you standing there?
20552Why are you tying the trees together?
20552Why did you come here, youngster, with your Tellerchen, to drink my water and feed on my grass?
20552Why do n''t you keep quiet?
20552Why in the world do you want more grease?
20552Why should I do that?
20552Why should I fare badly?
20552Why should n''t I warm myself?
20552Why should n''t they see him?
20552Why should we fare badly?
20552Why should we fare badly?
20552Why, what ails you to- day, wife, that you wake me so early?
20552Why?
20552Will you carry me over the river?
20552With what sort of a Welwa?
20552You brought the wonderful bird?
20552You have boasted that you could bring the girl from the forest?
20552You have seen a wizard, a dragon, or a griffin?
20552You met the Wood Witch?
20552You might have slept soundly till the end of the world, if I had not come?
20552You probably think that you will conquer the dragons by mere will? 20552 _ I_ fight with you?"
20552''Who are you?''
20552After their work was done, they sat down to supper, and while they were eating the boy asked:"What is your name, father?"
20552An idea entered Stan''s head, and he said boldly,"What would you give me, if I released you from the greedy dragon?"
20552And you, wife?"
20552And, if they did not bloom, why was it?
20552Another voice asked:"What is six?"
20552Are not the fields fertile?"
20552Are not the fruit- trees and bee- hives full?
20552Are you at variance with any one?
20552Are you crazy?
20552Are you not my father?
20552But did my fearless hero restrain himself?
20552But how do you happen to come here, and what are you doing in this wilderness of a forest?"
20552But how was Wild- Rose to do such a thing?
20552But what could she do?
20552But what did the empress say when_ she_ saw it?
20552But what did the youth see?
20552But when she glanced into the nest what did she perceive?
20552Ca n''t you understand that?"
20552Can you make roses grow on burdocks?"
20552Cross?
20552Did you steal the water?"
20552Do n''t you know that the bear never dances willingly?"
20552Do n''t you see he is dumb?
20552Do you hear?
20552Do you suppose you have me as a son for nothing?"
20552Does the place no longer suit you, or have you been offered higher wages elsewhere, that you want to leave me?"
20552Early the next morning he began to play on his flute at the edge of the lake,--and what did he see?
20552Fifty years have passed since I was young, who knows where the bones of the horse I rode then are rotting?
20552Had nobody been at his post?
20552Had not Holy Friday said that she was a combination of hideous things?
20552Has my faith been put to any test, and have I ever deceived you?"
20552Has the angel of the Lord taken her?
20552Have the elves and wicked gnomes stolen her away?
20552Have you any parents, and how did you get here?"
20552Have you enough to support them?"
20552Have you often been tended by people like me?"
20552He pulled it out, and what did he see?
20552He went out of the palace, and what did he behold?
20552He went up to it, and when he grasped it by the tail, the animal turned its head, saying:"What do you command, my master?
20552How could he drive them home?
20552How could he help it?
20552How did he ride?
20552How do I know, Brother Siminok?"
20552How had any one been able to enter unperceived?
20552How should she manage to find out what he did and ate in the woods?
20552I am old; if you go too, who will help me in the cares of government; if I die, who is there to ascend the throne except you, my son?
20552Like longing?
20552Like the wind?
20552Like thought?
20552Men came running to the spot, what did they see?
20552On seeing him, he said:--"Tell me, my son, from what part of the country do you come?
20552Or did not Holy Thursday tell you that you must enter into conversation with no one?
20552Or do you no longer remember the tidings Holy Wednesday''s box brought you?
20552Or like a curse?"
20552Or was she the ugliest among the fair ones?
20552Or, have you, too, been asleep, been dreaming?"
20552Over or under the bridge?"
20552Petru, Petru, have you forgotten?
20552Such a thing, how can I describe it?
20552Swim over it?
20552The Welwa?
20552The giants, the dragons, the iron- shod lions, the fairies, the flowers, and the sun-- what had they all been doing?
20552The traveler, full of joy, asked:"But are there not immense crowds of people here, if none of you die?"
20552Then a terrible wailing arose, as if all the spirits of evil were abroad, and another voice said:"What is two?"
20552Then it waked the young birds and said:"Tell me quickly, my darlings, who has done me this great favor?"
20552Then the fisherman, looking at the royal maiden, said three times:"Will you say fisherman to me again?"
20552They fought with swords, who knows how long?
20552Was he counting the wrinkles in her face?
20552What did Holy Thursday say?
20552What did he see?
20552What did they do?
20552What do you seek here?"
20552What do you suppose he did?
20552What else could he do?
20552What had become of him?
20552What had happened?
20552What happened during the night?
20552What is wanted?"
20552What is wanted?"
20552What must the Fairy Aurora herself be?
20552What should happen?
20552What should he do, for he found no water?
20552What should he do?
20552What was Petru to do?
20552What was he to do?
20552What was the youth to do?
20552What was to be done then?
20552What''s that to you?"
20552When he awoke, what did his eyes behold?
20552When it was over, he raised his eyebrows and began:"My son, what do you seek from me in this dark, cheerless abode?
20552When she asks''Who is there?''
20552When she came to the pear tree it stood full of pears, but do you suppose the traveler could taste even one of them?
20552When she looked up, what did she behold?
20552When the emperor heard this he grew very sorrowful and answered:"Why, my son, how can I give you an impossible thing?
20552When the old man heard the rooster''s voice he ran out joyfully to meet the bird, but looking through the door what did he see?
20552When the rooster saw that its life was in such great danger, what was it to do?
20552When they met again the old woman asked:"Husband, what have you found?"
20552Whence came the countless multitude of all sorts of cattle?
20552Whence do you come, and what do you want?"
20552Where should he find time to gossip with old women?
20552Where was such a thing ever heard of, and how long have you been able to talk?"
20552Where were all the sharp- eyed guards?
20552While he was doing so, Siminok stopped and said:"What is the matter with your head, Brother Busujok?"
20552Who are these boys?"
20552Who could tell how far he still had to go to reach the Fairy Aurora?
20552Who gathered the flowers for it, who twined them into a coronal, and who brought the wreath here and laid it on my couch?"
20552Who is it?
20552Who knows?
20552Who seeks to enter my palace by force?
20552Who that has ever seen her can help talking about her?
20552Who told you to stop?
20552Why should it?
20552Why should she be?
20552Why should they?
20552Why should we delay in our words?
20552Why?"
20552Would it be a joke to have a person able to throw any thing into the moon?
20552Would n''t it be better for you to heed the bay''s counsel?
20552Would n''t it be better for you to remember what Holy Thursday said to you?
20552Yes, or no?"
20552Yet they ate the porridge with great relish until, when the old woman emptied the dish she found at the bottom-- what?
20552Yet when did the flowers bloom, if they had not yet had time to open?
20552a dragon came up to him and said:--"What will you give me, boy, if I put all these beasts back into the horn for you?"
20552how could he help it?
20552how could the Welwa now be a gold forest after having twice left it in disgrace?
20552said the bay angrily,"why could n''t you keep quiet?"
20552she asked, half awake, half- dreaming--"Who?"
38976A woman who is fairer than I?
38976Am I never to be left in peace? 38976 And how do you know, Queen, that your child will be so happy?
38976And is that true also?
38976And pray what sort of bread would it be, if you were in the oven, and helped to bake it?
38976And what is the charm?
38976And what will you pay me to do this?
38976And when will the serpent''s eggs be hatched?
38976And when will you get the thirteenth bead, and where will he come from?
38976And where are they gone?
38976And where is the other sweep?
38976And why are you so happy?
38976And why do you go?
38976And why should you be starved to death, my Prince?
38976Be he prince or knave what care I? 38976 But how long must I work?"
38976But if they do all this harm,said Chrysea,"why do not some of you go to the moor and drive them away?"
38976But tell me,said Chrysea,"what is it that makes you so sad and your village such a dreary place?
38976But where shall I look for it? 38976 Can not you find out what the spell really is and break it?"
38976Can this be the wretched bare road down which we walked together? 38976 Dead is it?"
38976Do n''t you know,said the woman,"that this place is spell- bound?"
38976Good day, my friends,cried he when he saw them;"And how are things going on at the palace?
38976Has she passed by here? 38976 Have you seen her?
38976Heyday, whom have we here?
38976How can you think such dreadful things? 38976 How dare you insult me in this way?
38976How is this, your Majesty?
38976How should physicians help me, my father,she said,"seeing that I know more than they?"
38976If I do so, what will you give me?
38976In an instant,answered the raven, and again whispered to the donkey,"Why ca n''t you pay me honestly?
38976Is it true, then, that you wish to be my suitor? 38976 Little dog,"she said;"poor little dog, are you so glad to see me?
38976My daughter,cried he, as Fiorimonde in all her bridal array entered the room where he sat alone,"what can we do?
38976Now what is all this uproar for?
38976Now, whom have we here?
38976Of what is the cord made?
38976So happy?
38976So you have seen Princess Joan; and do you still wish to marry her?
38976Spell- bound?
38976Tell me, I beg,he said,"is not your village much changed of late years?
38976Then what can we do?
38976There is an evil fate about the Princess Fiorimonde,quoth he;"many have gone to marry her, but where are they now?"
38976Was there ever such a village as this?
38976Well, prince,cried she as they began to play,"what do you think of me by morning light?
38976What are you making all this fuss about, Master Baker?
38976What do you mean?
38976What do you want?
38976What is that bead, and where did it come from?
38976What is that necklace, and where did you get it? 38976 What is the tune it sings?
38976What is this you are saying?
38976What is wrong, and for whom are you watching, good folk?
38976What on earth are you making that whistling for?
38976What shall we change her to?
38976What was it she said?
38976What will you give me for it?
38976What will you give me to bring her to you?
38976What would you do here?
38976What would you have?
38976Who are you who dares come and tell me of women more beautiful than I am?
38976Who are you, and what do you want with me?
38976Who can have come and grasped my chain unknown to me?
38976Who is she-- where is she?
38976Why am I so happy?
38976Why do you ask?
38976Why do you sing?
38976Why do you wear that cord?
38976Why do you wish for that?
38976Why have you led me here, cruel star,he asked sadly,"if you can not help me more?
38976Why not, and who are you to talk like this?
38976Why should it make them unhappy?
38976Why should you heed tales of other women fairer than you? 38976 Why, what sort of work can you do?"
38976Why,cried his wife in surprise,"what are you saying, husband?
38976Why; is it a fairy necklace? 38976 Why?"
38976Will you not teach me to smile like that?
38976Work?
38976Yolande,he whispered as loud as he dared,"Yolande where are you?"
38976You? 38976 And what has this man done that you are beating him without my orders?
38976And when you succeed ought you not to be glad?"
38976Are you not a doctor, and is it not your business to cure people?
38976Are you shining over my home and my Princess, and does she remember me?
38976Are you so silly or so vain as to be troubled because a Prince says idly what you know is not true?
38976Are you unhappy?"
38976At this the men looked surprised, and one of them said,"Why do you wish to buy a boat?
38976But if I succeed and rid the land of your wicked Princess, what will you promise me for a reward?"
38976But what care I?
38976But why should you mind?
38976Do you love your master?"
38976Do you think I could learn how to do it if you would teach me?"
38976Do you want to earn a little money?
38976Has she been here?
38976Have I not made you the most beautiful woman in the world, and can any others do more than I?
38976Have I not told you I wished to be left alone for thirteen nights; why do you disturb me?"
38976Have you thought well of what you would do, since so many princes who have seen me have fled for ever, rather than marry me?"
38976He would have passed her in silence, but she stopped him, and said,"Have you come with the new Prince?
38976How could I meet my husband if I did not come to the spot where we last were together?
38976How dares he say such a thing on such a wretched day as this, with such a blue sky and such a bright sun?"
38976I am here-- I who have worked for you for years, and brought home your stolen heart, and now will you we d King Lambert in spite of all?"
38976Is it really Prince Michael?"
38976Is not it enough to make me happy?"
38976Is that not enough to make me happy?"
38976May I go with you, and will you teach me your trade?"
38976Of what are you talking?
38976On hearing this the old nurse drew near the prison window, and looked at him, and said,"Who are you, and why are you here?
38976On the side of the hill they saw a little village, and at once turned towards it, but as they drew near Chrysea said,"What gloomy place is this?
38976Presently she turned and said,"How beautifully you play; I never heard music like it before, but what makes you look so sad?
38976Tell me why do you come out at sunrise to sing by yourself?"
38976The Princess jumped off, and muttered some words through the keyhole, when a croaking voice from within called,"Why do you come to- night?
38976Then Michael called out,"Do you not know me?
38976Then as he looked at her face and saw how beautiful she was his heart wavered, and he thought,"Can it be my Joan, and that I have truly won her?"
38976Twelve beads already-- but what is that twelfth?"
38976Was it here you parted from her?"
38976What book are you looking at?"
38976What could be worse than to have a husband who does not like being happy?
38976What does it do?
38976What gift would you wish me to give you on our wedding day?"
38976What has happened?
38976What have you heard of me?"
38976What is all this uproar about?
38976What is the matter here?"
38976What punishment do you wish us to prepare for our most guilty daughter?"
38976What will you give me for it?"
38976When he had done he would ask them,"Have you seen my wife Chrysea?
38976When she saw it, Chrysea turned to the woman of the house, who stood beside her, and said,"Why do n''t you let it go?
38976Where could she be?"
38976Where is this King who would dictate to us what we shall eat and drink?"
38976Whose help will you seek to get her all these fine things?"
38976Why are you so happy?"
38976Why are you so happy?"
38976Why do you sit here?
38976and the people in the crowd whispered to each other;"It is true,--what has he done?"
38976are you here?
38976are you there?"
38976cried Gervaise,"and why do you not tell the world, and prevent good men being lost like this?"
38976cried the baker, beginning to be frightened,"what have I done that I am to be taken before the Justice?"
38976he asked;"have I not bid you serve me till the serpent''s eggs are hatched, and then the sword shall be yours?"
38976why do you not know me?
2290Is this a fancy of mine? 2290 Where did you get these?"
2290Where would you go? 2290 Why should you make way with yourself?
2290A star- gazer and a chariot- maker work for other people, do they not?"
2290And Calamity seemed to be looking on, thinking:"Whom shall I embrace?"
2290And Cloud- banner said:"My son, I only want the kingdom for you, and if you give it up from benevolent motives, what good is it to me?
2290And Hero was amazed, and timidly asked her:"Who are you, and why do you weep?"
2290And King Shudraka saw all this and went back without being seen himself, and climbed to the roof, and called:"Who is there at the gate?"
2290And again the king thought to test his behaviour, and climbing to the roof he called out toward the palace gate:"Who is there?"
2290And as he walked along, the goblin on his shoulder said to him again:"O King, why do you take such pains for that wretched monk?
2290And as soon as the counsellor was refreshed, the king said:"Counsellor, why did you leave us?
2290And as to his knowledge of the speech of beasts and birds, of what practical use is it?
2290And he also thought: Why does this girl reject kings and fall in love with a thief like me?
2290And he asked her:"What does it mean, dearest?
2290And he ran between them and spoke again to the agitated bird:"O Garuda, what madness is this?
2290And he thought:"If I am born a prince, why am I so poor?
2290And he thought:"Who is this who laments so piteously, as if in deep despair?
2290And he wondered:"Oh, where has my wife gone?
2290And her mother and father were surprised and asked her:"Why did you come back so soon, and in this condition?"
2290And how can you blame either or both of the charitable people who gave food to a guest who arrived unexpectedly?
2290And if I am to be poor, why did God give me so many desires?
2290And if this is a usual occurrence at sea, why do not other goddesses arise?"
2290And she thought:"Who can he be in this forest?
2290And the concealed thief saw it all and thought:"What has the wicked woman done?
2290And the counsellor''s son said to the old woman:"Old woman, do you know anybody named Bite in this city?"
2290And the goblin on his shoulder saw that he was silent and said:"O King, why are you so obstinate?
2290And the goblin said reproachfully:"O King, why was not the general better?
2290And the goblin spoke to him again:"O King, why do you go to such pains in this cemetery at night?
2290And the hermit said:"My boy, what is this wailing we hear?
2290And the king fell in love with her and thought:"Who is she?
2290And the king respectfully asked her:"My good girl, what happy family does your friend adorn?
2290And the king said:"What can I say?
2290And the king said:"Why are you so sad, my dear?
2290And the king thought:"Ah, what does this mean?
2290And the loud shouts of angry gamblers seemed to suggest the question:"Who is there that would not be fleeced here, were he the god of wealth himself?"
2290And the prince mounted his father''s judgment throne, and when he had heard the cause of the quarrel, he asked the thrush:"How are men ungrateful?
2290And the princess trusted him and said after a little hesitation:"My dear girl, why should I not trust you?
2290And the spell appeared in bodily form, and said:"What shall I do?"
2290And then she spoke to Sandal with words punctuated by smiles:"My dear, why do you not show hospitality to the fairy prince?
2290And what child would give his body?"
2290And what did you fall into?"
2290And what good is a Brahman who neglects his own affairs and turns magician, despising real courage?
2290And what good is there except helping others?
2290And what is this hermit garb?
2290And when he saw that he had come there so suddenly, he thought:"Oh, what does it mean?
2290And when he saw that the culprit was dressed like a hermit, he asked him very gently:"Holy sir, where did you get this pearl necklace?
2290And when the king saw him following, he spoke lovingly:"My good man, do you perhaps know the way we came?"
2290And when the monk came the next day, he asked him:"Monk, why do you keep honouring me in such an expensive way?
2290And where are they now?
2290And where are you going?"
2290And where did you come?
2290And where did you stay?
2290And why should feet fit to saunter in a court, press this thorny ground?
2290Are men bad, or women?
2290Are the crows to blame when the geese eat up the rice?"
2290Are you not aware that I am a connoisseur in food?
2290At that moment a serving- maid came into the room and said to the king:"Your Majesty, why have you come into the jaws of death?
2290Besides, what nonsense are you talking?"
2290Besides, you have surely heard what the poet says: What fool would go into a house?
2290But Cloud- chariot said to his father:"Father, how can you take your weapons and fight?
2290But Fierce- lion said:"My son, what do you mean?
2290But after all, who can understand the strange workings of stern necessity?
2290But her father said:"What do you mean, my daughter?
2290But his parents immediately said:"Son, what are you saying?
2290But presently she rose, lamenting for the pair so unexpectantly dead, and thought:"What is my life good for now?"
2290But the goblin said:"How could it be the king''s fault?
2290But the goblin said:"Why not Hero, the like of whom as a servant is not to be found in the whole world?
2290But when the eldest said this, the two younger said:"Sir, if you feel disgust, why should n''t we?"
2290But while he reflected, Cloud- chariot said:"O king of birds, why do you stop?
2290Can women be so dreadful as this?
2290Did he weep or laugh?
2290Did he weep or laugh?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started.
2290Did you understand the signs I made, or was it the counsellor''s son?"
2290Do you not know that money is uncertain as an autumn cloud?
2290Do you not know this, you who know things above and things below?
2290Do you not see how gentle his appearance is?"
2290Do you not see that I have the hood and the forked tongue?
2290Do you not see the home of the ghosts, full of dreadful creatures, terrible in the night, wrapped in darkness as in smoke?
2290Do you not see the rock of sacrifice wet with the blood of serpents, the terrible plaything of Death?
2290Have you no sense about this fruitless task?
2290Have you the rheumatism?
2290He thought:"Is she the goddess of love, plucking the spring flowers in person?
2290He went himself to see Good, and asked him soothingly:"What does this mean?
2290How about generosity and that kind of thing?
2290How can I comfort it?
2290How can I do such a wicked thing?
2290How can I find her?
2290How can I partake of such a meal?"
2290How can I save him from the king?
2290How can I touch this loathsome thing?"
2290How can a good counsellor be happy when his master devotes himself to a vice?
2290How can he live then?
2290How can it bear the pangs of being eaten by Garuda?
2290How could I be mad enough to eat a future Buddha?
2290How could a man in my position overlook such a transgression?
2290How could a teacher with such powers promise falsely?
2290How could a warrior''s daughter be given to a working- man, a weaver?
2290How could he be so mean as to beg Garuda to destroy his own race?
2290How could this woman have a goaty smell?"
2290How could you bring yourself to do so harsh and loveless a thing?
2290How could you do this thoughtless thing?"
2290How did you come to this inaccessible under- world?
2290How much less in the case of others?
2290How shall I find another such master?
2290How shall I live without you?"
2290If I should transgress, who would be virtuous?
2290If not, why do you talk nonsense?
2290If the counsellor is lost, the fundamental principle is lost; how then can virtue be preserved?
2290If you know and do not tell, then remember the curse I spoke of before?"
2290Is it good manners to enter the heart of an innocent girl by force, steal her thoughts, and run away?
2290Is n''t it possible to prepare for heaven in your own house?"
2290Is she a goddess come to bathe in these waters?
2290Is she angry with me?
2290Is there no other kind of virtue except in pilgrimages?
2290Is this a dream, or an illusion?"
2290Is this hermit manners, to run away?"
2290Just then the thief came up and said to the king''s men:"Why do you kill this man without any good reason?
2290Or Gauri, separated from her husband Shiva, leading a hard life to win him again?
2290Or a dream?
2290Or an illusion?
2290Or are you possessed by a devil?
2290Or from sorrow because the king came back, and he could no longer act as king?
2290Or how can Garuda, the heavenly bird, do such a crime?
2290Or is she a forest goddess, come here to worship the spring- time?"
2290Or is she playing hide- and- seek with me, to see how I will take it?"
2290Or the favour of the goddess?"
2290Or the lovely moon, taking a human form, and trying to be attractive in the daytime?
2290Or to a farmer, either?
2290Or why at her age does she torture a body as delicate as a flower with a hermit''s life in a lonely wood?"
2290Or why is not the boy Trusty the most worthy, who showed such wonderful manhood when only a little boy?
2290Or why should not his wife receive the most praise, who did not waver when she saw her son killed like a beast before her eyes?
2290Otherwise, why did the fire seem cool to you?
2290Shall I go into the fire, or go home?
2290So Spotless went and saw how his son was acting, and said:"My son, why should you be downcast?
2290So at night he climbed to the palace roof and cried:"Who is there at the gate?"
2290So how can I touch it?"
2290So now I say: What good is life to me without my children?
2290So now why should I want to live alone?
2290So the eldest brother straightway plucked up heart, and said:"What virtue is it which we should acquire?"
2290So the king knew that a goblin lived in it, and said without fear:"What are you laughing about?
2290So what shall I do now?"
2290The brave man said:"If I had not killed the giant in the fight, who would have saved her in spite of all your pains?
2290The wise man said:"If I had not discovered her by my wisdom, how could you have found her hiding- place?
2290Then Cloud- chariot asked one of her friends:"My good girl, what is your friend''s sweet name?
2290Then a voice cried from heaven:"O Hero, who else is devoted to his master as you are?
2290Then she slowly spoke:"Who are you, sir?
2290Then the chief of police went and asked him:"Holy sir, how did this pearl necklace come into your pupil''s hand?"
2290Then the counsellor''s son said:"Did you not see all that she hinted with her signs?
2290Then the eldest said:"What?
2290Then the king broke silence and said:"Who did the murder?
2290Then the younger brothers said to him:"Sir, why is an intelligent man sad for lack of money?
2290There he saw great heaps of bones, and he asked Friend- wealth:"What creatures did these heaps of bones belong to?"
2290Therefore, as you are a wise man, tell us what you mean by embracing this dead body?"
2290To which should the girl be given?
2290To which should the girl be given?
2290To which should the girl be given?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started.
2290Was his wife his or the other man''s?
2290Was it from grief because he did not win the fairy himself?
2290Was not Rama forced to abandon his good wife by popular clamour?
2290Was the night jealous of your beauty; did she carry you away?
2290What advantage would it be to you if all the serpents were slain at once?"
2290What are the syllables of her name, which must be a delight to the ear?
2290What could she do, poor woman?
2290What do you mean by your hour for begging?
2290What does the question mean?
2290What family does she adorn?"
2290What fool would begin a thing and then stop?"
2290What good would life be to us otherwise?"
2290What happiness is there in a life of constant mourning for your children?
2290What high- minded man would want a kingdom after killing his relatives just for the sake of this wretched, perishable body?
2290What is it to them, or they to it?
2290What is the use of throwing him into a well now?
2290What madness is this?
2290What might she not do next?"
2290What need of more words?
2290What relation were their children?
2290What rights have you in my wife?
2290What shall I do?"
2290What will happen now, when he loves a fairy?
2290What will holy men not do out of regard to those who seek aid?
2290What would my father say if he saw me now, or any relative, or any friend?
2290When Hero heard this, he was frightened and said:"Goddess, is there any remedy for this, any way in which the king might be saved?"
2290When Lotus- lake saw that terrible fall, he cried:"Oh, what does it mean?"
2290When he had told this story, the goblin asked:"O King, which of them was the most delicate?"
2290When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, when the king was so happy, why should the counsellor''s heart break?
2290When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, who murdered the Brahman?
2290When so good a wife is gone, how could I think of another?"
2290When the counsellor was rested, the merchant asked him:"Who are you?
2290When the goblin had told this story on the road in the night, he said:"O King, which was the most foolish among those who died for love?
2290When the goblin had told this story, he asked King Triple- victory:"O King, which of all these was the most worthy?
2290When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, when they were mingled in this way, which should be her husband?
2290When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, which of these two deserves more credit for plunging into the sea?"
2290When the goblin had told this strange story, he asked the king:"O King, why did the boy laugh at the moment of death?
2290When the king saw this, he took it and asked the treasurer:"Where have you been keeping the fruits which the monk brought?
2290Whence do you come?
2290Where can I find such a sacrifice for the giant?
2290Where did you go?
2290Where has the great being been carried by my enemy?
2290Where is that heavenly garden?
2290Where is the great man?
2290Where shall I go now, naked and dusty as I am?
2290Where shall I see you again?
2290Which are worse, men or women?
2290Which are worse, men or women?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin.
2290Which combination of head and body is her husband?
2290Which is the cleverest?
2290Which is the more deserving?
2290Which is the more deserving?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started.
2290Which is the more self- sacrificing?
2290Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ So the king walked along with the goblin.
2290Which is the more worthy?
2290Which is the more worthy?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started.
2290Which is the most delicate?
2290Which is the most delicate?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder once more, and started toward the monk.
2290Which is to blame when he kills them all?
2290Which of the five deserves the most honour?
2290Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree and caught the goblin, who gave a horse- laugh.
2290Which of these are you?
2290Which of these are you?
2290Which was the more self- sacrificing, Cloud- chariot or Shell- crest?
2290Which was the most foolish?
2290Which was the most foolish?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, took the goblin on his shoulder, and set out in haste.
2290Who can she be?"
2290Who could expect a good result from creating a bad- tempered creature?
2290Who is to blame for his death?
2290Who is to blame for his death?_ Then the King went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started as before.
2290Who killed the Brahman?
2290Who will save my son?"
2290Who would break a promise that had been made solemnly?
2290Who would sacrifice his child for money?
2290Who would save a common stone at the cost of a pearl?
2290Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?
2290Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ There is a city called Benares where Shiva lives.
2290Whose wife is she?
2290Whose wife should she be?
2290Whose wife should she be?
2290Whose wife should she be?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin.
2290Why did he fail to win the magic spell?
2290Why did he laugh at the moment of death?
2290Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started in silence.
2290Why did he weep and dance?
2290Why did his counsellor''s heart break?
2290Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ Then the king went as before to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started back.
2290Why did the Creator and the serpent- king choose my only son from the broad serpent- world, and seize upon him?"
2290Why did they lose their magic, when everything had been done according to precept?"
2290Why did you not save me?"
2290Why do we keep such a wishing- tree for the sake of transient blessings?
2290Why do you not seize her?"
2290Why do you say that King Shudraka was the best among them?"
2290Why do you urge me to a sin which is pleasant for the moment, but causes great sorrow in the next world?
2290Why do you vainly try to comfort me?"
2290Why do you work so hard and grow weary for the sake of that monk?
2290Why does that magic goblin keep wasting my time?
2290Why does the fruit of the poison- tree of sin taste sweet?"
2290Why have you come into this lonely wood?
2290Why have you killed my husband and my brother at one fell swoop?
2290Why insist on more?
2290Why not trust a loving, innocent girl like me?
2290Why not?"
2290Why seek the pains of hell by suicide?''
2290Why should I deceive an honourable man, especially as your noble character has made me feel like a servant?
2290Why should I not please the goddess by sacrificing myself?"
2290Why should I not win her favour by sacrificing myself?"
2290Why spend your time in such an evil pursuit?"
2290Why then delay?
2290Why then do you uselessly kill the wild beasts?
2290Why torture me yet more?

37995But can we do nothing? 37995 But has nothing happened to you all night alone in the forest?"
37995But if we can not see it, of what use would our kingdom be to us?
37995But perhaps, sir,said Sampo timidly,"you would be so kind as to help me back again before the danger begins?"
37995But when you have pulled up my holly and junipers and broom- bushes, how shall I be able to make fires for the long winter evenings? 37995 Can we do nothing?"
37995Can you guess what I was thinking of as I came along?
37995Dearest father,she cried,"should you not rather endeavour to make use of this brave youth for our deliverance than put him to the torture?
37995Did you have mercy on the misfortunes of this unhappy boy? 37995 Do n''t you know that you are trespassing?
37995Do n''t you know_ that_?
37995Do you believe in fairies?
37995Do you give in so soon as this? 37995 Do you know how to fight?"
37995Do you know what that is?
37995Doubtless,said he,"you wonder who I am, and what is my errand in coming hither?
37995Far away yonder,so ran his thoughts at these times,"where the blue heaven bends down to touch the earth, should I not find happiness there?
37995Foolish child, know you not that the gold, silver, and copper come out of the earth? 37995 From whence all these riches?"
37995Have I not sent you a very pretty Dream? 37995 Have you money to buy my strawberries?"
37995Have you then done the King of Realities any harm?
37995Here is blue heaven above and beneath, surely I shall find happiness here?
37995How_ did_ you guess what I meant? 37995 Indeed I have,"he cried gladly;"perhaps you are the kindly fairy who befriended my mother?"
37995Is that the one?
37995Is the King bound by the same law?
37995Is yonder mist- enveloped island the kingdom of Diaphanosia?
37995It was more like my daughter''s, perhaps you will say?
37995May I ask what you find to laugh at in what my daughter has said?
37995No, no,said he;"why two victims?
37995Nobody ever taught you to use your fingers usefully?
37995Not to part us, father?
37995Now, what shall I do with the other little thing?
37995Off to work already?
37995Or what?
37995Then what is to be done?
37995To the castle, indeed-- what are you thinking of? 37995 We have given our hearts to each other,"said the young wife;"what do we want with gold rings after that?
37995What are you doing here?
37995What do you mean by the sun festival?
37995What do you want it for?
37995What have you done?
37995What have you learnt in foreign parts?
37995What is that rustling sound that I hear behind us?
37995What is that?
37995What is the matter?
37995What is this? 37995 What is your name?"
37995What is your name?
37995What will you give me for your eye?
37995What,asked he,"is that strange panting I hear behind us?"
37995Where am I?
37995Wherefore,he asked the cook,"this appearance of mourning?"
37995Wherefore?
37995Which should he have now, the boy or the girl?
37995Who are you?
37995Who are you?
37995Who is Hisü?
37995Who is that?
37995Who is there?
37995Why should I not take a drive?
37995Why should we quit this delicious spot so soon?
37995Will nothing else serve?
37995Zizi, will you be still, and will you stay on my lap instead of tumbling about in the road? 37995 _ What_ you were thinking of?
37995''How much?''
37995A moment later he raised his enormous foot for a kick, yelling:"Are you not ready yet?"
37995Again Sampo spoke:"Is it not thundering over there amongst the rocky mountains?"
37995All by himself?
37995And then I shall think about it----Now, then, are you going to be good, and say you are sorry?
37995And then they''ll say:''Yes, ma''am; will you have him with light hair or dark?''
37995Besides, do you think the disappearance of a whole caravan would pass unnoticed?
37995But how should he succeed?
37995But how was he to get there?
37995But this time also he took refuge among the branches of a tree, saying:"Why two victims?
37995But why did you bite me?"
37995But, Kalum Bek, what am I to say to you?
37995But, Yvette-- on that deserted road, what could she do?
37995Can I not go to the Caliph?
37995Can not you get me one, if it is only a small one?"
37995Could n''t you manage to give me equipments, and make my face so that no one would know me?"
37995Did I first read it in some old book laden with the dust of ages?
37995Did n''t he lie on the ground as if he had never used his legs?
37995Do you give in so soon as this?"
37995Do you know,"he continued, addressing George,"what this rogue does if I, once in a way, allow him to go down to the earth?
37995Do you not see how lovely it is now, and are you so presumptuous as to think you can do better for it than Nature has done already?"
37995Have you been very much afraid of me?"
37995Have you no maids or grooms?
37995Have you still your little whistle?"
37995Have you the money to keep up that style?"
37995How did you get to know of the plot?"
37995How did you know who I was?
37995How is it that you have got to do so much work and have to nurse your child at the same time?
37995How shall I reward you?"
37995Is that you, master?"
37995Katel, my love, have I not won you yet?"
37995No?
37995Of what use are these miserable, puny creatures?"
37995Perhaps you will say that it was_ I_ who uttered that insolent sound?"
37995Scholar, are you here?"
37995Shall I ever see him again?"
37995Shall his doom be to be shot, or to be hanged from the nearest tree?"
37995She piped out as loudly as she could:"If you please, your Majesty, have we not come here to worship the sun, and to watch for his coming?"
37995The clasps just met, and the pearls glistened like dewdrops on her bosom-- or were they tears?
37995The rest I am sure you will respect, for you are not greedy; will the others who come after you spare it, too?
37995Was a stranger to come to Bagdad and rob them of their honour?
37995Was it a ray of sunlight that stole through the open window and trembled upon the mouth, curving it into a smile?
37995What are you to do?
37995What did he see in her?
37995What do you think, George?"
37995What do you want, a shawl or a veil?"
37995What need to remain here longer?
37995What new instinct filled her warm, young heart, and made her speak?
37995What was done to Said?"
37995What was it that shimmered so blue through the trees?
37995What will become of me?"
37995What would their mother say when they returned home, their task unfulfilled?
37995Whatever could he be doing?
37995Where is your husband, then?"
37995Whilst he thus rested, she put on him a suit of bronze armour, and said:"How can we make it known that it is you who saved me?"
37995Who could have stolen their berries?
37995Who dared admit you without my leave?"
37995Who is dead?"
37995Why, that man is noted for his cruelty; and do you mean to tell me that he allowed the murderer of his son to go free-- and that, too, without ransom?
37995Will you believe it?
37995Will you state your business and leave me?"
37995With his pickaxe and spade?
37995With the speed of lightning it approached the castle, and a voice, as of a bassoon, sounded from out the cloud:"Where are my propitiatory sacrifices?"
37995Wolf, wolf, where are you?"
37995Would she go with him now, and approach the great Dragon, and soothe its savage watchfulness into the necessary repose?
37995Yes, it was all very well, but what should she play at?
37995You do n''t suppose, do you, that I believe the fable you made up for my benefit?
37995You wish to know how he taught him his art?
37995[ Illustration:"''WHAT DO YOU WANT HERE?''"
37995are you tired already?
37995exclaimed Rend, in disgust,"you wish that dirty, hideous little varlet to come near you?"
37995exclaimed the mother;"how dare you talk so?
37995naughty girl; you wo n''t go to sleep?
37995said Olga,"and what do you want in my private apartments?
37995she said to it, cuddling it up in her arms;"do you want to be my little girl?
37995so soon tired?"
37995you wo n''t?
43127A very, very long time? 43127 Alix,"he was saying,"do n''t you see where we are?"
43127And who can tell,she would say now and then,"how better things may come about for the poor creatures?
43127And who knows,he said to himself,"but that such love as mine may find out a way to release her from the spell?"
43127Are you going to be giants again?
43127Are you going to_ knit_ the story?
43127Are you sure of that?
43127Are you there? 43127 But,"began Alix, rather timidly,"please do n''t mind my interrupting you, but does n''t Mrs Caretaker look after you?
43127Ca n''t you remember any stories about them?
43127Can you not understand, you who are yourself a child of the north? 43127 Chloe, have you wished for anything without telling me?"
43127Chloe,she said,"did you hear that?"
43127Could it be for a hen- house?
43127Did you know our grandmother?
43127Did you send the wren?
43127Do you hear that bird, Alix? 43127 Do you love the sea?"
43127Do you mean you''ve got stories to tell us?
43127Do you remember, Rafe, the story of a white lady, up, up in a room at the very top of a castle somewhere, who was always spinning stories? 43127 Do you think, dear Mrs Caretaker, that_ perhaps_ we may see Chryssa some day when we are bathing?"
43127Do you wish to kill her?
43127Do you, Miss Meadows?
43127Have n''t we been here a great while? 43127 Have you broken any bones, do you think?"
43127Have you ever seen a fairy, nurse?
43127Have you got a story quite ready for us?
43127Have you?
43127How can it have come about?
43127How could I blame you?
43127I do n''t think there_ could_ be; do you, Miss Meadows?
43127I know,cried Alix;"Mrs Caretaker-- will that do?
43127It''s like something papa told us the other day about legends; do n''t you remember, Rafe?
43127May I ask you one or two things,he said,"before you begin telling us the stories?"
43127Oh, I say, Alix, would n''t you like to understand what they''re saying?
43127Perhaps it is too soon to settle about school feasts just yet, but have you no presents to get ready for any one?
43127Princess,he said,"can you not give me another answer?
43127Rafe,she cried,"there''s a sort of handle inside; shall I try to turn it?"
43127Rafe,she said,"do you think perhaps we should have waited for her at the ilex tree?
43127Robin,said Alix, clearly though softly,"robin, have you come to see us?
43127Shall we go on now?
43127Shall we go to church like last Christmas, Joyce?
43127Suppose,he said,"that we make stories for each other-- you for me, Alix, and I for you?"
43127That I can not tell you,he said, as he shook his head;"and what does it matter?
43127We''ve been so happy lately, Rafe; have n''t we? 43127 Well,"he said,"have you found out what the Queen means by a rose?
43127Were we very late of coming in last night?
43127What are they talking of? 43127 What can it be?"
43127What could we do in such a case?
43127What does it mean?
43127What is it? 43127 What is it?"
43127What is there we are equally in want of? 43127 What will become of her after we are dead and gone?"
43127What would he think if he heard us beginning to quarrel already? 43127 What?"
43127When do you think we had best come? 43127 Who will care for and protect our darling?
43127Whom did the old house belong to? 43127 Why did n''t they, nurse?"
43127Why do n''t you think of a better plan, then, if you do n''t like mine?
43127Why not?
43127Will you tell us one of them? 43127 ),but why do n''t you find something that_ will_ do?"
43127And if so, how is one to be procured?"
43127But how am I to get there?
43127But now she looked at Rafe-- he felt a little nervous; was she going to take offence at his speech?
43127But was she safe?
43127But what have you got in your basket?
43127Did you ever hear tell of mermaids?"
43127Do n''t you think it is, Miss Meadows?"
43127Do woodpeckers tap inside a wall?
43127Do you know about the white lady?"
43127Does n''t it seem funny, Rafe, to think there have_ always_ been children in the world?"
43127Had you, Miss Meadows, at your own home?"
43127Have you always lived here-- even when the old house was standing and there were people in it?"
43127Have you got a message for us from Mrs Caretaker, perhaps?"
43127Have you hurt yourself?"
43127Have you no trust?
43127How can I ever dare to face the King and Queen?
43127How can it have happened?"
43127How did you get the rose?"
43127How did you know we were coming?"
43127How should I have known that this year would be different from other years?
43127If the mere sight of a dwarf brought ill- luck, what might not they expect from the visit of one of the spell- bound race?
43127If there have never been any, what began all the fairy stories?
43127If you are so wonderfully wise, why did you not bring Strawberry indoors a month sooner than usual?
43127Is n''t it lovely?
43127It''s your dinner, is n''t it?
43127Let me see-- what were the dwarf''s exact words?"
43127Long before the old house was pulled down?
43127May n''t we call you something?"
43127Need we go, Miss Meadows?
43127See, what is that sack in the corner?
43127Was it morning, or evening, or night, or what?
43127Was it not already too late?
43127What can it be?"
43127What could it be?
43127What had she been saying?
43127What had she done?
43127What is the matter?
43127What is there about me different from others?
43127What is this thing she is longing for?--what is a rose?"
43127What shall we do, Chloe?
43127What shall we do?"
43127What should you say to strawberries and cream?"
43127What was the matter?
43127What was to be done?
43127What_ will_ nurse say?"
43127Where does it grow?
43127Who are you?"
43127Who is lying there?"
43127Who knows what might happen to one astray there?"
43127Who lived there?"
43127Who will help her to rule over our nation?
43127Why did I not think of her before?
43127Why should I so often hear of what others seem to understand, and not have it explained to me?
43127Would n''t you like to eat something while the story''s getting ready?"
43127and how should I find the flower if I were there?"
43127she said;"and may we come every day, and may we stay as long as we like, and will you sometimes invite us to tea, perhaps?
51275''Am I too late?
51275''And are you willing to let your father return and leave you here?''
51275''And what if he does?''
51275''And, after all, when you have once delivered me, why should we ever come back?
51275''But at least you will come again to- morrow and grant me many dances?''
51275''But how can I go, as I am, in these horrid clothes?''
51275''But what has become of the other one?''
51275''But what has happened?
51275''But what sort of linen,''said they,''would His Majesty have us spin without spindles?''
51275''Dear_ Beauty_,''he said,''why are you so cruel to me?
51275''Did I not say, all along, that to force a rose at this time of the year would cost you more than would have bought presents for all the rest of us?
51275''Do you happen to have any pumpkins in the garden?''
51275''Do you think you can be content here?''
51275''Eh?
51275''Friend?''
51275''Have you come here of your own free will?''
51275''Have you made a good supper?''
51275''How can I help it?''
51275''How do you do it?
51275''How is this?
51275''Indeed?
51275''Is it my brothers?''
51275''Is not your happiness worth more than the life of a monster?
51275''Is there to be another ball, then, to- morrow?''
51275''Spinning?
51275''Sure of what?''
51275''That you love me?''
51275''The question is, Have you such a thing as a mouse trap in the house?''
51275''Then you really think there_ is_ a change?''
51275''Was it not enough that I made you welcome in my palace and treated you kindly?
51275''Well, child?
51275''Well,_ Beauty_,''he said,''and what shall I bring home for you?
51275''What are you doing, goody?''
51275''What has gone wrong, dear_ Beauty_?''
51275''Who gave you leave to pluck my roses?''
51275''Why are you in this distress?...
51275''Why is not the key of my closet among the rest?''
51275''Will you not come down?''
51275''You wish to go home?
51275''You wish, dear, that you could go to the ball; is it not so?''
51275''_ Beauty_, will you marry me?''
51275And how have you fared?''
51275And she went away, you say, without telling her name?
51275And yet what do you suppose will happen to you after he has gone?''
51275Ask yourself if it be reasonable to suppose that our eyes are playing a trick on both of us?
51275But are you sure?''
51275But for what reason?
51275But he was hungry; where could he find some one to give him food?
51275But she smiled no longer when he put to her once again his blunt question:--''_ Beauty_, will you be my wife?''
51275But what does that matter?
51275But what is_ that_ you are clutching?''
51275But, for that matter,''she went on as a new thought struck her,''why should we be separated at all?
51275Even were I cruel enough to purchase my life at the cost of a child, on what excuse could I bring her?''
51275How can I set him free?...
51275How can you suppose we should allow you to touch a ribbon, or even come near us, with such hands?
51275I understood, my dears._ ANOTHER_ Further, the story would suggest a doubt__ That marriage_ may_ be happiest when deferr''d--__''Deferr''d?''
51275Is no one going to see her again?''
51275Might I not just see her?
51275Of what use is he in the world except to frighten folks out of their wits?''
51275Or is it because you hate me, that you wish to be gone?''
51275Pray where are your King''s manners, that I have not been invited?''
51275So one evening she asked him point- blank:''_ Beast_, are we alone in this palace, with nobody but ourselves?''
51275Surely you, too, wish for something?''
51275Their good master-- the lord of this splendid palace-- what was he to them?
51275What can I do to make you happy?''
51275What can it mean, child, but one thing?
51275What did this matter?
51275What is that?''
51275What is the matter?''
51275What matters ruling to either of us two, while we see your son and my daughter reigning together?''
51275What more can I do to make you happy?
51275What more, then, could they possibly want?
51275What was the poor man to do?
51275When she came it was odds that they met her with a storm of abuse, in this fashion:--''What do you mean, pray, by answering the bell in this state?
51275Whilst she was dressing them one asked her:''_ Cinderella_, would you not like to be going to the ball?''
51275Why could you not have asked for dresses and jewels as we did?
51275Will you not reward me by telling all about it?''
51275With such a nose how could he help roaring through it?
51275Would you desert a poor_ Beast_?
51275You like that sort of thing, do you?''
51275[ Illustration: The unhappy FATIMA cried up to her:--''Anne, Sister Anne, do you see any one coming?'']
51275_ Blue Beard_ examined it closely, and demanded--''How came this blood upon the key?''
51275answered back the_ Prince_, still with his dagger lifted;''and am I no more than that?''
51275where are my brothers_ Selim_ and_ Hassan_, who promised to come with you?''
34453''What is that?'' 34453 Ah,"said Rhiannon,"wherefore didst thou give that answer?"
34453And are ye going to sell cows that the Evil Eye has long been set on? 34453 And how will you get it?"
34453And what did you want with the sheet just now, to wipe his blood if he was only a man of straw?
34453And whence camest thou?
34453And why did you bring away my gold that I was gathering for five hundred years throughout the hills and hollows of the world?
34453And why?
34453And will a foal come out of it?
34453And would you give me up to that ugly black King of Moroco?
34453Are we under you now?
34453Are you here to- night again?
34453Arrant rogue?
34453But had n''t you better take the horse? 34453 But, Jack asthore, where did you get the fine clothes?"
34453By what means will that be?
34453Can ye move the chimney over beyant?
34453Could I have a night''s lodging here?
34453Dickens a notion have I;--how could I?
34453Did you see anything wonderful?
34453Do you know where the Sword of Light is, or who has it?
34453Do you know who owns them bastes, neighbours?
34453Faith, what is it like?
34453For how long is the spell to be upon you?
34453Go aisy, ca n''t ye? 34453 God between us and harm,"said he,"am I in my right senses?"
34453Has he not given it before the presence of these nobles?
34453Have they not reached you with Oifa?
34453Have you any notion how far you have to travel till you find the golden bird?
34453How am I to know them?
34453How at all,said he,"has this head come here?
34453How can I do that?
34453How could Smallhead, the creature, be outside all the time? 34453 How dost thou think that?"
34453How is the work going off?
34453How many tricks canst thou do?
34453I am after breaking my heart riding this ass of a horse; but will you give me the limping white garron for him?
34453I am as hungry as yourself,said the boy,"but how can I go to the well without a light?
34453I need give you no directions, my good woman,said Lusmore,"for this is Cappagh; and whom may you want here?"
34453I wo n''t let it go,said Owen;"sha n''t I be drowned?"
34453I''ll go with you, and welcome,said Paddy;"but what excuse will I make to my wife?"
34453I''m going to America, with a letter from the master; is this the right road?
34453Indade we will; what good is a house and garden, if we have to sit here all the rest of our lives?
34453Indeed, then it is,says she,"who else would it be?"
34453Is Fin at Home?
34453Is it the book you are thinking of, you fool, to take it and lose it as you did the sword? 34453 Is it you?"
34453Is n''t it all one to you where I got it?
34453Is that branch thy own?
34453Is there,said Fin,"no man to combat with him but yourself?"
34453It is; keep straight to the west; but how are you going to get over the water?
34453Lady,asked he,"whence comest thou, and whereunto dost thou journey?"
34453Lady,he said,"wilt thou tell me aught concerning thy purpose?"
34453Lady,said he,"art thou sleeping?"
34453Look you,said Rhiannon:"will not his own name become him better?"
34453Maybe you''re thirsty?
34453Musha, sir,says he,"would you spare a bit of that meat to a poor body that''s hungry?"
34453My lord,said his wife unto Teirnyon,"where is the colt which thou didst save on the night that thou didst find the boy?"
34453My lord,said she,"what adventure is this?"
34453My men,said Powel,"is there any among you who knows yonder lady?"
34453My soul,said Gwawl,"will thy bag be ever full?"
34453My soul,said Powel,"what is the boon thou askest?"
34453Of what blood art thou?
34453Oh, you may as well ask me where I got all that money?
34453Oh,asked my wife,"why are you always laughing?
34453Oh,said the king,"what was all your watching ever good for?
34453Oh,_ musha_, do n''t you know your own son?
34453Say,''Oh sweet- tongued singer, it is my own cock,''wilt thou not?
34453Suppose some person were to bring the Sword of Light, and that person a woman, would you marry her?
34453Tell me first in what place his hand was cut from him?
34453Uill, uill, puil, uil liu-- who is killing me?
34453Verily, lord,said she,"what sort of garments are there upon the boy?"
34453Well, then,said the fox,"wouldst thou rather have the root or the tip?
34453Well, what news?
34453What advantage has your tree over mine, on which there are three rods of magic mastery growing?
34453What are you doing here?
34453What are you doing here?
34453What can be done in the matter?
34453What do you want?
34453What have ye, Con?
34453What is it, beloved brothers?
34453What is it?
34453What is your name?
34453What little speck do I see there?
34453What makes thee mad, son of learning?
34453What man are you?
34453What may ye be doing here instead of earning yer salt, ye seven big sturks?
34453What name has he?
34453What poor news have you?
34453What reward would you give me if I shield you from the king from this hour to the same hour to- morrow?
34453What set you weeping for the black horse?
34453What tricks canst thou do?
34453What vows are they?
34453What work can you do?
34453What work can you do?
34453What would I do if tiredness should come on you before we got over?
34453What''s to hinder me?
34453What''s to hinder ye from getting up? 34453 What''s your news?"
34453Where are ye going to, this fine morning?
34453Where are you going this time of night?
34453Where are you, Owen?
34453Where did you get the money?
34453Where have you been? 34453 Where is it?"
34453Where is my mother?
34453Where is the sword?
34453Where''s the money?
34453Which wouldst thou like best, the root or the crop this year?
34453Who are you,said the chief,"and what''s your business?"
34453Who ironed this linen?
34453Who is that girl you have in the house, and where did you find her?
34453Who''ll bring that fat bullock here,says Jack,"and use no violence?"
34453Who''ll steal that wether,says Jack,"before it''s out of the wood, and no roughness used?"
34453Whose wife will my daughter be?
34453Why are you not praising the dinner like the others, you contemptible deer?
34453Why do you cry and lament so?
34453Why, nothing at all happened, thank God, since you rode out; where did you leave the horse?
34453Why,said Fin,"should he not?"
34453Why,said the King,"do you ask?"
34453Will I turn the spit, your honour, while they''re catching the_ hareyeen_?
34453Will any of you,says Jack,"undertake to steal that goat from the owner before he gets out of the wood, and that without the smallest violence?"
34453Will ye give me the house and garden?
34453Will ye sell it?
34453Will you give me what I ask?
34453Willest thou this, lord?
34453Would the mistress have anything for me when dinner is over, your honour?
34453Would you marry my second sister if you were to get the Black Book?
34453Would you take me for him?
34453Wouldst thou eat it with three others?
34453Wouldst thou sell it? 34453 Ye''re a fine man, Giblin, and ye did it without making a bit of dirt; what''ll I give ye for so fine a job?"
34453Ye''re in a sad plight, Shamus, roasting alive; what can I do for ye?
34453''Am I not the best warrior that ever sought you?''
34453''Do n''t you know at all?''
34453''Have you any token in proof of that?''
34453''What aileth thee?''
34453''What impertinent fellow are you that has dared to haul up your ship alongside of our ships?''
34453''Why?''
34453After a while, Fin asked him again,"What are the Big Men doing now?"
34453After they were gone says Jack to the wicked housekeeper,"Do these fellows ever make you a present?"
34453And Mac Howg came down to the brink of the shore and said to them:"Are ye the children of Lir?"
34453And as they came in, every one of Powel''s knights struck a blow upon the bag, and asked,"What is here?"
34453And when meat was ended, Powel said,"Where are the hosts that went yesterday and the day before to the top of the mound?"
34453And wilt thou tell me who thou art?"
34453Are we not better without it?"
34453Are you hurt?
34453As she took hold of each body she said,''Are you alive?''
34453At last after much parleying the cock said to the hen,"My dear, do you not see a couple of hounds coming across the field?"
34453But Master Rory said:"Is it a traitor I am, when all I have come to see you for is to tell you about a keg of butter I have found?"
34453But the children of Lir-- what is their lot?
34453Did n''t you fall down the stairs?
34453Do ye mind the time yer father spoke ugly to her down by the cross- roads?
34453Do you know what I am thinking of?''
34453Do you see yonder castle?''
34453Every one as he came in asked,"What game are you playing at thus?"
34453Fin called to Bran,"Are you going to let him kill me?"
34453Have you ever heard the way he gets rid of his fleas?
34453Have you never heard about that?
34453He spoke to Bran,"Are you going to allow him to kill me?"
34453He summoned Smallhead and asked:"Can you amuse the strangers?"
34453He then asked,"What was the reason for doing this?"
34453How could he refuse her, and his heart tied up in every curl of her hair?
34453How did ye find it out?
34453How should we know where she is?"
34453I asked,"Why are you crying?"
34453I said to her,''Is there no way of killing him?''
34453I said to the old woman,''Is there any way of destroying him?''
34453I then said to the King of the Red Shield,''What were you going to do?
34453I went down where he was, and said to him,''What impertinent fellow are you that has dared to haul up your ship alongside of our ships?''
34453I went to the door of the palace and knocked; and the doorkeeper called out,''Who is there?''
34453I wonder if you are anything to the young ladies who came the way this evening?"
34453If he asks me how you made your money, what''ll I say?"
34453Is he bigger than yourself?"
34453Is that bag with ten guineas in it that''s hung round the goat''s neck yours?"
34453Lir asked the messengers:"Wherefore are ye come?"
34453No one took notice of him when he went in, or said"Where have you been?"
34453Oh, my darling, my darling, is n''t this a trial?"
34453On the building of the Magic Castle, Campbell remarks:"Twashtri was the Carpenter of the Vedic gods: can this be his work?"
34453On the following morning she walked up to the King''s son and said:"I have the Sword of Light; now will you marry my sister?"
34453One day she saw him alone in the garden, went up to him, and said:"Why are you not getting married, it is high time for you?"
34453One of them said to another:"Why should you be comparing yourself with me, when there is not a king nor knight that does not come to look at my tree?"
34453Paddy made the dog loose his hold, and said:"Tell me who you are, or why did you kill my horse and my cows?"
34453Should we not go to look at the castle?
34453Smallhead was a very beautiful woman now, and why not?
34453That night Paddy went down to the cellar; the little man welcomed him and asked him did he wish to dance?
34453The Farmer asked of him what he meant?
34453The Farmer met him at the door, and asked him whither was he going, or what was he seeking?
34453The King of Erin said to him,"Do you intend to take away the cattle that I promised you?"
34453The hag asked me,"Why is he bellowing?"
34453The king came and saw the cradle coloured with the blood, and he cried out"where was the child gone?"
34453The rider of the black horse said to O''Cronicert, after they had set off,"Do you know who I am?"
34453Then the little man gave a leap down to the floor, and said to Paddy:"Do n''t you like music?"
34453There was no one but an old hag, tall and frightful, and she asked me,"What sort of person are you?"
34453Was the Russet Dog afraid?
34453What do you think was bobbing up and down at the window, and sossed down so heavy on the walk?
34453What dost thou ask from this day to the day when the crop will be gathered in?"
34453What happened at all?
34453What have you done?"
34453What will ye give me if I help you find yer feet?"
34453What would bring three hung men so near one another?
34453What''ll we do?"
34453When Shamus came back, Giblin led him to the chair, saying:"Now, is n''t that a great deal better?"
34453When all was over the rider of the black horse said,"Are you willing to return home now?"
34453When he arrived he went on his knees to the king; and the king said to him,"What is your news, O''Cronicert?"
34453Who are you, then, or what is your name?"
34453Why did you not wait for me?''
34453Will we run out and pin him?"
34453[ Illustration]"Well,"said the cock,"I could do three; how many canst thou do thyself?"
34453and what wouldst thou require for it?"
34453cried he,"do you want to knock us down?"
34453cried he,"what''ll Joan say to me now?
34453said O''Cronicert,"do you think that I can not keep that vow?
34453said he, when he could speak,"how''s this?
34453said the king,"I am sorry for you; what do you want?"
34453says she,"is n''t the poor fellow all cut and bruised?"
34453says the wife,"sure, you would n''t shoot the brave fellow?"
34453what''ll we do?
34453whatever kind of man it is that''s mocking you, is n''t that a fine condition you have got your father''s horse into?"
34453who spoiled our tune?"
8226Hae ye your pipes?
8226Hath a leaf fallen upon me from the tree?
8226If thou wert over here, and I yonder,said the Giant,"what wouldst thou do to follow me?"
8226Is it Conrade?
8226Then,said the Queen,"is it Rumpelstiltskin?"
8226Thou killedst my bald rough- skinned gillie?
8226Thou killedst my mother?
8226Thou killedst my three bald brown daughters?
8226Thou stolest my buck?
8226Thou stolest my glaive( sword) of light?
8226Thou stolest my golden comb, and my silver comb?
8226What do you mean?
8226What is that for?
8226What is the matter,said Skrimner,"hath an acorn fallen upon my head?"
8226What nonsense is this?
8226What, both?
8226When wilt thou come again?
8226Wife, did you sweep the court- yard?
8226Wilt thou let me in?
8226Wo n''t they come back?
8226And then the wicked Princess with the nose three ells long opened a window, and asked if she would sell the apple?
8226But the Blind Man, as he could n''t see, was very brave; and he went to the door and called out,"Who are you?
8226Do you know the story?
8226Does anybody know the way?
8226Next day the Giant gave the King''s son choice of his two eldest daughters; but the Prince said,"Give me this pretty little one?"
8226Out came a Troll and said,"What do you mean by ploughing up the roof of my house?"
8226Presently the Giant called out,"Are you asleep yet?"
8226She thanked the Moon, and took the egg; and then the North Wind came by; and she said to the North Wind:"Hast thou not seen a White Dove?
8226So she put it on, and went into the palace, and everybody admired the dress, and the Enchanted Princess asked if she would sell it?
8226So when morning came, he said he should like to see what his bride was fit for?
8226Suppose we take a glance at those famous Hindu demons, the Rakshas, who are the originals of all the ogres and giants of our nursery tales?
8226The fairies stole the other lamb, and Urvasi reproached her husband again, saying,"How can that be a land without heroes or men where I am?"
8226The lad went to look at the child, and the Child said to him in a sharp voice,"What are you going to do?"
8226Then a neighbour came up, and said,"So, Georgey, you''re leaving the old house?"
8226Then the Dwarf came again, and the Queen said to him,"Is your name Hans?"
8226Then, out of the vase there issued the voice of the Genie, saying,"Now, thou unbeliever, art thou convinced that I am in the vase?"
8226When evening came, she asked the Moon--"Hast thou seen a White Dove?
8226When he felt the birds calling in the morning, and knew that the day was, he said,''Art thou sleeping?
8226Where can they be?"
8226Where shall we begin our hasty journey into Wonderland?
8226Who could stand against us?
8226Wife, did you do this?"
8226and what do you mean by coming here and battering at the door in this way, and at this time of night?"
8226do I find you here, you old sinner?"
8226what are you about?
8226what is rest?"
8226you''re a Rakshas, are you?
51762''An''in the name of the Unknown Powers, what sort of a man is he Himself if his baby is that big?''
51762''An''will Finn''s teeth go through this?''
51762''And how''s your father?''
51762''Are they calling you Mollyvridey?''
51762''Are you going by the name of Mollyvoirrey?''
51762''Are you one of the Mollyruiy ones?''
51762''But is not your father the seventh son of Old Windy Cap, King of Norway?''
51762''Can thou?''
51762''Dost thou see my cloven foot?''
51762''Dost thou see my long arms?''
51762''Dost thou see my sharp claws?''
51762''Dost thou see this big body of mine?''
51762''Dost thou see this big head of mine?''
51762''Far before any of the carnivals I''ve seen before; an''how long will it last?''
51762''Hom,''said my lad,''can thou dance anything to that?''
51762''How''ll I get back at all, at all, an''in the dark, too?''
51762''I''ll warrant your name is Mollychreest?''
51762''In the name of Fortune where am I at all?
51762''Is he fat?
51762''Is it Mollyrea?''
51762''Is n''t it hot enough for thee?''
51762''Maybe your name is Mollyvartin?''
51762''What Buggane?''
51762''What are thou blowing on thee fingers for?''
51762''What are thou doing that for?''
51762''What are thou wanting here?''
51762''What do you think of this sight, boy?''
51762''What is it you are wantin''with him?''
51762''What sort have you given me at all, at all?''
51762''What was he singing?''
51762''Where are you going, bull?''
51762''Where are you going, cock?''
51762''Where are you going, gander?''
51762''Where are you going, goat?''
51762''Where are you going, speckled hen?''
51762''Where''s Himself?''
51762''Who art thou, young man?''
51762''Who have you got in the criddle?''
51762''Who said that to you, bull?''
51762''Who said that to you, bull?''
51762''Who said that to you, cock?''
51762''Who said that to you, cock?''
51762''Who said that to you, cock?''
51762''Who said that to you, cock?''
51762''Who said that to you, gander?''
51762''Who said that to you, gander?''
51762''Who said that to you, gander?''
51762''Who said that to you, goat?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, little chicken?''
51762''Who said that to you, speckled hen?''
51762''Who said that to you, speckled hen?''
51762''Who said that to you, speckled hen?''
51762''Who said that to you, speckled hen?''
51762''Who said that to you, speckled hen?''
51762''Why should n''t I be satisfied?''
51762''Would thou like to see me dance?''
51762A man came to him and asked:''How will I get rich, O Caillagh- ny- Faashagh?''
51762A seagull, standing near by, inquired:''Och, lil bat vogh, what''s there doin on thee that thou are all of a thriddle of thrimblin like this?''
51762An''do ye know what I''m seeing?''
51762And says he:''Now, what''s my name?''
51762And where was the straw and hay which made such a snug bed in the barn?
51762Are thou satisfied?''
51762Are thou?''
51762Are you coming?
51762Awhile after some of the women were asking him, how did he like it last night, and would he go again?
51762Black Thrush, are you coming, are you coming?
51762Boys, are we goin''to lose a shot for that bleb?
51762Did he think Mammy had gone an''left him then, the chree?
51762Did thou hear anything new?''
51762He answered, trembling,''Woman, my heart, who art thou?''
51762Is he fat?''
51762Kione jiarg, kione jiarg, Apyrn doo, Apyrn doo, Vel oo cheet?
51762LITTLE RED BIRD Little red bird of the black turf ground, Where did you sleep last night?
51762Lifting up his other foot, the Buggane, in a furious rage, yelled:''Dost thou see my rough arms, my bony fingers, my hard fists, my----?''
51762Little red bird of the black turf ground, Where did you sleep last night?
51762Little red bird of the black turf ground, Where did you sleep last night?
51762Little red bird of the black turf ground, Where did you sleep last night?
51762Nobody never seen the like of it on this bare breas''before-- else where am I at all, at all?''
51762Red head, red head, Black apron, black apron, Are you coming?
51762So he went, and when he got there he began to dig, and another man came to him and said:''What are you doing?''
51762So the poor Bird of the Waste was left in the mountains and any day you may hear him cry in a mournful voice:''Lhondoo, vel oo cheet, vel oo cheet?
51762THE RAVENS Two Ravens met once, and one asked the other in Bird language:''Is there nothing new at you?''
51762Then he rubbed his eyes a bit and whispered:''"What''s mother doin''now at all?"
51762Then said the king:''Are you one of us to- night, Tom?''
51762This is a dreadful big house,''he said to himself;''where did it come from, for all?
51762Thou''ll get nothin''done here, maybe thou would like to go?
51762Vel oo cheet?
51762What is it at all, at all, that''s doin''on the veen?
51762When Magnus saw them he shouted:''Is it thus you run, you coward?
51762When he found that the herring had been chosen, he twisted up his mouth on one side, and says he:''An''what am I goin''to be then?''
51762When the husband got home that evening he was late, and his wife said to him:''Where have you been so late?
697But might you not try an apology?
697But what good will that do your Majesty? 697 But what if she should marry?"
697Can you bear this?
697Did he? 697 Do n''t you like falling in then?"
697Do you grant it?
697How do you feel, my child?
697How do you know I am a prince, princess?
697I mean, what do you feel like?
697Is the fellow mad?
697Is there nothing you wish for?
697Is this the gravity you used to make so much of?
697Now, queen,he said, turning to her Majesty,"what IS to be done?"
697Please, your Majesty, shall I take the baby?
697Put you up where, you beauty?
697Put you up where, you beauty?
697The longer the better, however,he resumed:"for can I not bargain that the princess shall be beside me all the time?
697To my old sister, I suppose you mean?
697Well, what is your condition?
697Well, what of that?
697Well, what''s the matter with your child? 697 Well, what''s to be done?"
697Well?
697What are you crying for, queen?
697What business had you to pull me down out of the water, and throw me to the bottom of the air? 697 What do you mean?"
697What is all this about?
697What is it, my darling?
697Where is she?
697Why ca n''t we go and have a swim?
697Why did n''t you tell me before what your condition was? 697 Why do n''t you have any daughters, at least?"
697Will you be in the lake to- morrow night?
697Will you kiss me, princess?
697Will you promise to let me have it?
697Would you like a fall, princess?
697Would you like to run and see your parents before you make your experiment?
697Would you not like to be able to walk like other people?
697After some effort the princess panted out,--"Is that what you call FALLING IN?"
697And she squeezes water out of her cheeks?
697Are you sure you do n''t mind it?"
697But how was he to be put in?
697But how was this to be brought about?
697Do n''t you see it, queen?
697For what indeed could a prince do with a princess that had lost her gravity?
697How dare you?"
697How''s the lake?"
697No Children?
697No Children?
697Take a glass of wine?"
697The instant they reached the surface--"How do you like falling in?"
697The king could not see into the garret she lived in, could he?
697The princess did not appear to understand him, for she retorted his question:--"How do YOU like falling in?"
697They wo n''t trust me in the lake for a single night!--You see where that green light is burning?
697What Is to Be Done?
697What Is to Be Done?
697What do you mean?"
697What is it?"
697Where Is She?
697Where Is She?
697Where Is the Prince?
697Where Is the Prince?
697Who could tell what she might not lose next?
697Why could n''t they leave me alone?
697Why do n''t they?
697Wo n''t I, Just?
697Wo n''t I, Just?
697is it?"
7871Are they cold that they have to keep warm?
7871But which,asked some,"was the more glorious, her long tresses, floating down her back, or the shining crown above it?"
7871Have I killed them?
7871How can they swim with petticoats on?
7871Oh, Mynheer Eerlyk, you mean? 7871 They are very proud of their linen, these men are; but, without the spider to teach them, what could they have done?
7871What do you bring me?
7871What is it?
7871What now?
7871What of the third one?
7871What shall we name it?
7871When men say to you, on the street, to- morrow,''How do you sail?'' 7871 Where did you get those brats?
7871Where shall we go when our pool is destroyed? 7871 Who has been here?
7871Why not divide this wheat among the needy, if you are greatly disappointed? 7871 Why not?"
7871( How goes it with you, already?)
7871But when, instead of green grass, they saw a white landscape, they wondered, Was it winter?
7871But where was it,--the farm, with the house and fields?
7871But where was the giant?
7871Could it be?
7871Did not the ancient oak promise that the trees would be turned upside down for you?
7871Did they not say you could walk on top of them?"
7871Did you ever see him?
7871Do n''t you hear Karel''s Klok( the curfew) sounding?
7871Do n''t you know I belong to my Lord?"
7871For what reason did the wise birds emigrate to the cold country a thousand miles away?
7871Forgive even the Danes?
7871Had he made"goed koop"that day?
7871How could a saint lose his temper so?
7871How did he get his name?
7871How do you sail to- day?"
7871How was Santa Klaas dressed?
7871How will Spin Head reveal his secret?"
7871Indeed, she spoke to the spider as an old friend:"Well, playmate of my babyhood, what have you to tell me?"
7871Now when he first came to New Netherland in America, what did he find to take back to Holland?
7871Proud of her riches, with her voice in a high key, she shouted,"I ever want?
7871SANTA KLAAS AND BLACK PETE Who is Santa Klaas?
7871She had even to beg her bread on the streets; for who wanted to help the woman who wasted wheat?
7871That''s the way the Dutch talk-- not"how do you do,"but, in their watery country, it is this,"How do you sail?"
7871Then she said to herself:"Is there anything in this ugly stick?
7871Then what do you think he did?"
7871Was that all?
7871Were they like other fairies?
7871What became of the body of the Mermaid Queen?
7871What did the proverb mean?
7871What had, what would, become of our baby?
7871What is money?"
7871What was it all for?
7871What was the matter?
7871What was the matter?
7871Where does he live?
7871Where should he hide?
7871Whither had they gone?
7871Who ever saw a white penny?
7871Who would be a woman?
7871Who would n''t be a mermaid?"
7871Why should she?
7871Why were the pagan followers of the king so angry with the singer?
7871Would it be Wilhelm or Wilhelmina?
7871forgive an enemy?
7871or else,"Hoe gat het u al?"
36612And am I not one of his miners?
36612And how has my beloved king slept to- night?
36612And is there no hope for him? 36612 And now can you show me a way to the king''s chamber not through the servants''hall?"
36612And pray, pretty prophetess,he said, attempting to chuck her under the chin,"what have_ I_ got to repent of?"
36612And what was in thine, Curdie-- for thy first word was of battle?
36612And who would n''t drink when he had a chance? 36612 Are we all dirt?"
36612Are you aware, young man,said the doctor,"that it is not every wine can do his majesty the benefit I intend he should derive from my prescription?"
36612Are you willing to die for the king?
36612But how, dear Curdie?
36612But may not one sometimes make a mistake without being able to help it?
36612But then how can all the shapes speak the truth?
36612But what have you done with the crown, Curdie?
36612But what if the thief were to come, and she not to wake?
36612But what_ is_ to be done? 36612 But where am I to go, ma''am, and what am I to do?
36612But where_ is_ the crown?
36612But would she like it any better if it were true?
36612But, ma''am,said Curdie,"where is the good of knowing that there is such a difference, if you can never know where it is?"
36612Can you do as you are bid?
36612Can you lead a horse?
36612Can you tell_ me_, then, what I have to repent of?
36612Did I make a noise and vex you?
36612Did I not tell you the truth when I sat at my wheel?
36612Did it not startle the king dreadfully?
36612Did the_ messenger_ mention me in particular?
36612Did you feel it too then?
36612Did you never see moonlight before?
36612Did you not know? 36612 Do n''t you know then?"
36612Do n''t you see by my dress that I am in the king''s service?
36612Do you think you will know me again?
36612Do you want to be treated as you deserve, or will you speak, you hussy?
36612Does he always sleep better after having it?
36612Does it follow then that, as you are saying so much, you''re not thinking at all?
36612Does the king wander like this every night?
36612Even when it is with his own will?
36612Has your king- father been long ill?
36612How can I tell, ma''am?
36612How did you manage that?
36612How do you know I''m thinking of anything?
36612How has his Majesty slept?
36612How much?
36612How should it be, madam, that a grand lady like you should take notice of a poor man like me?
36612How_ can_ you be?
36612I hope you have not hurt yourself?
36612I suppose you mean when I told you yesterday you were a pretty girl when you did n''t pout? 36612 I suppose you mean, mother,"answered Curdie,"that I must do as the old lady told me?"
36612If you can trust, as well as speak the truth, I will trust you.--Can you trust me?
36612Is it not time to rise, Curdie?
36612Is the king dead, ma''am, that he has left it to you?
36612It''s easy enough to see what Curdie has got to make of it-- isn''t it, Peter?
36612Ma''am,said Curdie,"may I ask questions?"
36612May I kiss your hand, little princess?
36612Most likely; but will you give them the chance?
36612No?
36612Now what am I to make of it, mother? 36612 Now, Curdie, are you ready?"
36612One thing more,said Curdie:"have you courage as well as faith?"
36612Please, am I to go now?
36612Please, king papa,she said,"can I not have my white pony?"
36612Please, ma''am,--"what am I to call you?"
36612Shall I take her with me or leave her?
36612Shall I try her?
36612Tell me this,said Peter:"why do people talk about going down hill when they begin to get old?
36612That is what I mean: what else could it be? 36612 That''s you, is it, my fine fellow?
36612The good food!--how are we to get it, Curdie? 36612 The good food?
36612Then why_ do n''t_ you do as_ I_ tell you, and hold your tongue?
36612Then will you tell Curdie?
36612Then would you mind telling me now, ma''am, for I feel very confused about it-- are you the Lady of the Silver Moon?
36612They want my crown, darling; and I ca n''t give them my crown, can I? 36612 Was it your head or your feet that ought to bear the blame of your fall?"
36612Well, Curdie, what is it?
36612What are you thinking about? 36612 What do you break my window for, you rascal, with your pickaxe?"
36612What do you come here for, Curdie?
36612What have you got there?
36612What is it saying?
36612What is it singing?
36612What is it, ma''am?
36612What must we be doing to- day, Curdie?
36612What right has any one to bring an abomination like that into our city? 36612 What should I want with a stone?"
36612What sort of man is your doctor?
36612What wrong were you doing all day, Curdie? 36612 What''s that to me?
36612What''s that to my window?
36612When will the doctor be here?
36612Where do_ you_ come from, hussy?
36612Where is he?
36612Who are you to make game of the king''s baker?
36612Who is it?
36612Who wants your preachments? 36612 Why do n''t you come in, Curdie?"
36612Why not, Curdie?
36612Why should you doubt it, Curdie?
36612Why then, ma''am, should n''t she have it?
36612Will your majesty please sign your royal name here?
36612You say you did n''t mean any harm: did you mean any good, Curdie?
36612You want to know where the light comes from?
36612*****"What''s come to the wench?"
36612--Curdie, go and bind securely the six, that we lose not their guards.--Canst thou find us a horse, think''st thou, Sir Bronzebeard?
36612--Where then are our soldiers?"
36612Am I not right, Peter?"
36612And if she kept a great many pigeons-- and white ones, as Irene had told him, then whose pigeon could he have killed but the grand old princess''s?
36612And why, pray, should we be turned out?
36612And yet what did that signify, when there was the white globe shining, and here was the dead white bird in his hand?
36612At the same time there was his mother''s testimony: what was he to do with that?
36612But could he be awake, or was he not dreaming?
36612But his silence at last drew attention upon it, and one of them said,--"Come, young Curdie, what are you thinking of?"
36612But how can I tell what you may look like next?"
36612But love makes all safe-- doesn''t it, Curdie?"
36612But now it is over, and all is well.--Would you like to know why I made you put your hands in the fire?"
36612But the inside, who shall tell what lies there?
36612But what was that in the sky, straight in front of him?
36612Can nothing be done?
36612Can you call it stealing to take a thing from such a place as that?
36612Come, what is it you stole?
36612Could he have opened a wrong door?
36612Do n''t we, Lina?"
36612Do n''t you know that this is my house?"
36612Do you feel none?"
36612Do you think you are prepared for it?"
36612Far away-- it looked miles away-- shone one minute faint point of green light-- where, who could tell?
36612Gently he opened the door through which the sound came, and what did he see?
36612Have n''t you had enough of it?"
36612Have you seen yourself in the glass this morning, miss?"
36612Here I am, sent by your great- great- grandmother, to be your servant.--May I ask why you are up so late, princess?"
36612How can you tell?
36612How could she be there?
36612How would you like to be served like that because you were ugly?
36612If their best and wisest were treated with such contempt, what might not the rest of them look for?
36612Is it possible Kelman can be such a wretch?
36612Is not your beautiful father sleeping better since he had the wine?"
36612It was nothing but a pigeon, and why should he not kill a pigeon?
36612Kelman?"
36612Now I need n''t tell you, surely, Curdie, what you''ve got to do with this?"
36612Now that would not be the case-- would it, Curdie?"
36612Or how could I expect you should?
36612Or who would repent it, except that the drink was gone?
36612Shall I tell you again what I told my wheel, and my wheel told you, and you have just told me without knowing it?"
36612She''s not a bit fonder of her looks than you are-- only what can she do to change them?"
36612So it''s you that''s up to her tricks, is it?"
36612Tell true now:--wasn''t it the same that stole the loaf and the pie that sent you with the impudent message?"
36612The straits of isolation were soon found in the palace: its invalids were requiring stronger food, and what was to be done?
36612This was as he had hoped, for what could he have said if he had had to knock at it?
36612Thou shalt head thy beasts to- day.--Sir Bronzebeard, wilt thou die with me if need be?"
36612WHAT IS IN A NAME?
36612WHAT_ IS_ IN A NAME?
36612Was it?
36612Was the king''s chamber on fire?
36612Was the whole world going to cast him out?
36612Was the whole world going to make a work about a pigeon-- a white pigeon?
36612What could it mean?
36612What could it mean?
36612What do you go breaking the rock for-- the very rock upon which the city stands?"
36612What does it matter how many names if the person is one?"
36612What had he been sent into the world for?
36612What have I to repent of now, your holiness?"
36612What is it?"
36612What messenger?"
36612What other thing was in thy brave brain when thou didst don thine armour, friend?"
36612What sort of a place is that for a jewel?
36612Where were you, Curdie, that they could n''t find you?"
36612Where''s the other now?"
36612Which should he knock at?
36612Who then am I to trust?"
36612Why did she appear only now and then, and on such occasions?
36612Why did she go about at night?
36612Would he have to stand there for ever, not knowing what to do, with the dead pigeon in his hand?
36612Would he try to do as little as he could for his wages?
36612and what lord chancellor would, so attired in the street, proclaim his rank and office aloud?
36612but every one for himself, say I!--Pray, Miss Judgment, who gave you such an impertinent message to his majesty''s household?"
36612for if the butchers sent meat to the palace, was it not likely enough to be poisoned?
36612for what is a king without his crown?"
36612he returned,"seeing I do not know what it is, or what preparation it needs?
36612if it were n''t mine, what would become of it now?"
36612one word more: may I tell my father and mother all about it?"
36612she said;"it''s you, is it, young man?
36612thought Curdie to himself;"but what is to be done with the rest?"
36612what_ is_ the matter?"
36612will you go fooling it still?
7488''And thou, Ailne, and thou, Ardan, will ye not also return?
7488''And what sayest thou, O Wise Man?''
7488''Art thou indeed Deirdre the Star- eyed, and is it that King Concobar keepeth thee here like some caged bird?''
7488''By the morn after to- morrow we must be far hence, for ere the sun shall rise may not yonder chief be upon us with thrice the number of our men?''
7488''His name, Lavarcam, his name?''
7488''How might I heal thee?''
7488''Is it truly told me that you refused these birds to Queen Decca?''
7488''Oh, Lir, wherefore have thy children come not hither?''
7488''To- night may this island be tempest- swept, to- night may the host of Concobar be upon you, and then what shall befall this fair one?
7488''What aileth thee, my Queen?''
7488''What beast wouldst thou slay?''
7488''What sayest thou, O Felim the Harper?''
7488''What terror is it that hath hold of thee?''
7488''Whence comes he, and wherefrom he be found?''
7488''Where are thy thoughts, fair child?''
7488''Who art thou?''
7488''Yet wherefore should I heal thee who hast worked me nought but ill?''
7488Again Grania asked,''And who, I pray thee, sitteth by his side?''
7488Ah, could it be the hunting- horn of which Lavarcam had spoken in her tales of chase?
7488And Finn cried aloud,''Which of us, Dermat, is it that speaketh truth?
7488And had not the Wise Man foretold the sorrow that the daughter of Felim should bring upon the land?
7488And looking up he said,''Have I not, Dermat, spoken truth?''
7488And when King Concobar beheld the onslaught, he cried aloud,''Who hath done this thing?''
7488Are we not under a bond that we will stand each by each, even unto death?''
7488Art thou behind the fence?''
7488At length the maiden questioned,''Nathos, son of Usna, what wouldst thou?''
7488But Nathos feared not, for had not Fergus come to them with the bond of peace from the King?
7488But his brothers would not leave Nathos, for were they not under a bond that they would stand each by each, even unto death?
7488But when he ceased from his tales Grania asked,''Wherefore is it that Finn hath come hither to feast?''
7488But when the brothers heard, they were filled with fear, for had not the King Concobar vowed that this same fair maid should be his Queen?
7488Crouching by her side they asked,''What, dear sister, can be the strange, faint sound that steals across our island?''
7488For was not Decca the bride of Largnen, and the good Saint had he not come, and the chime of the Christ- bell was it not heard in the land?
7488From the sunny window of my chamber did I not watch thee on the day of the hurling- match?
7488If we let the babe live, then must thy people see thee in sore distress, for the word that the Wise Man speaketh, shall it not come to pass?''
7488In those days shall Erin''s chief glory perish, for if the House of the Red Branch fall, who shall stand?''
7488It is for thee I have watched long, for is not thy skin white as snow, thy cheek crimson as blood, and thy hair black as the raven''s wing?
7488LIST OF STORIES The Star- Eyed Deirdre The Four White Swans Dermat and Grania LIST OF PICTURES THE STAR- EYED DEIRDRE''Art thou indeed Deirdre?''
7488Lives he still, and Bove Derg, and our dear Dedannan friends?''
7488Say, therefore, which ye will do battle for first, my head or the quicken- berries?''
7488Should it be to crave protection of the King, or should it be to where their father''s castle had stood before it had been destroyed?
7488Silently and with great awe did all the company look at the wise old man, for those things that he had already foretold had they not come to pass?
7488Tell me, I pray thee, who sitteth yonder by Oisin''s side?''
7488Then great fear took hold of Grania, and she trembled, and again she said,''Let us flee, for how shall we withstand the wrath of Finn?''
7488Then spake one among them,''Right gladly we go, but who can bring to thee Nathos, if it be not his will?''
7488Then with one accord did the people cry,''Wilt thou indeed be guardian to this child, knowing the ill that the Wise Man hath foretold?''
7488Therefore Bove Derg asked,''Wherefore, O Eva, come not Finola and her brothers to the palace this day?''
7488To this man he said,''Who was it that slew thy father and thy brother?''
7488Was it not to warn him that your serving- man gave three shouts, and was it not to warn him that ye sent unto him my dog Bran?
7488What was that plaintive sound?
7488When would the chime of the Christ- bell peal over land and sea?
7488When would the good Saint come to Erin?
7488Wherefore then should he seek forgiveness of the King?''
7488Why mock us by asking if we are the fairest of Concobar''s nobles?
7488Yet, lest the King should follow me hither, and, finding me not, seek to slay you, were it not well that ye leave this place?''
7488[ Illustration:''Art thou indeed Deirdre?'']
18674A charm, eh? 18674 Ah,"he said, looking the great cat straight in the eye,"you have come to eat me, have you?
18674All right, father, I''ll do what you tell me; but suppose the foreign soldiers should come while you are gone? 18674 Am I not your master, you mad creature?"
18674Am I to be changed into a bird?
18674And I shall never again have to beg for crusts on the street?
18674And are you sure of this wondrous beauty you describe so prettily?
18674And has this gracious goddess brought sunshine into your life, my pretty one?
18674And is it far?
18674And there were only fourteen then?
18674And what did they do with the mule he was riding, his bed, and the money in his bag? 18674 And when, most august King, would you have me decide?"
18674And where are you going, Lu- san, now that you have left your father? 18674 And where do you live?"
18674And yet, nephew, you think this fellow is really peaceably inclined and is not coming among us as a spy?
18674Are n''t you afraid of Blackfoot?
18674Are n''t you even going to give him a scolding?
18674Are there not moments when you would prefer to be a man?
18674Are you mad from hunger, or have you caught another flea?
18674Are you quite sure there was not some friend of the miser''s spending the night with him?
18674Are you speaking of Su- nan?
18674But did n''t he live here, too?
18674But did n''t it kill me?
18674But did you count them again last night?
18674But how can_ I_ help to punish the Emperor?
18674But how shall you get the tablet off your back?
18674But what about you, my boy? 18674 But what am I to do?"
18674But when was it, little one, that they did this?
18674But, father,persisted the boy,"have n''t you forgotten?
18674But, mother, what has this brass bauble to do with the dumplings, these wonderful pork dumplings, the finest I ever ate?
18674But, woman, are you mad?
18674Ca n''t be found? 18674 Can a carpenter make shoes?"
18674Can you think of nothing else?
18674Ch''ang,he asked,"what was it you called your guest when you spoke of her a minute ago?"
18674Count you?
18674Did you not find the fruit we told you about?
18674Did you not know it? 18674 Did you not say it was a tiger that killed your son?
18674Do n''t want me to go, eh? 18674 Do n''t you see me swimming?
18674Do you indeed?
18674Do you not know me, father? 18674 Do you remember me?"
18674Does he have a fire in cold weather?
18674Doing about it, sir? 18674 First of all, are you willing to help me bring good fortune back to our family?"
18674First tell me what good fairy of a rich man has been filling our hands with silver?
18674Forgive me, kind sir, but what have you done to my master?
18674Going? 18674 Have you come here to laugh at our misfortunes?"
18674Have you suffered many a cruel pain since you were snatched away so suddenly? 18674 Help to devour myself, eh?"
18674How long?
18674How many have you?
18674I know you are telling the truth,wailed Wang,"but how, oh, how can I ever work with all these feathers sticking out of me?
18674I wonder if I dare?
18674I? 18674 If he asks even a peach, how can you refuse and at the same time save your face?"
18674Is he nothing but a cry- baby?
18674Is that true?
18674It takes me back to my boyhood,he cried,"why, oh why, is it not the fashion to swim?
18674Just a little business for the mandarin, is n''t it? 18674 Kwan- yin,"he continued,"do you wish to pass by the green spring of youth, to give up this mighty kingdom?
18674May I try it now?
18674Now what is the silly boy blubbering about?
18674Now, old woman, are you satisfied?
18674Now, what do you propose doing about it?
18674Oh, can you not, good fairy, will you not restore my parents and brothers, and give them another chance to be good and useful people?
18674Oh, that was it, hey? 18674 Oh, who has brought this woe upon us?"
18674So I am the tiger- forest, am I?
18674Then he is your husband?
18674Then, are you indeed contented with your lot?
18674Tiger,said he, turning toward the prisoner,"did you eat the woodman whom you are charged with killing?"
18674Well, that''s rather strange for a miser, do n''t you think?
18674Well, what''s your business, friend Wang? 18674 Well, you did n''t forget me, did you?"
18674What am I doing now?
18674What are they? 18674 What are you doing in my bedroom and who is this child who seems so frightened?"
18674What are you doing, Daddy?
18674What can those queer- looking papers be?
18674What do they care for a man when he is sick?
18674What do you know about success and failure? 18674 What do you mean, fellow?"
18674What do you mean?
18674What do you suggest?
18674What does this mean?
18674What have we to gain by deceit, we who have performed our miracles before the countless hosts of yonder Western Heaven?
18674What is a sin, Daddy?
18674What is it, father? 18674 What is the matter, old woman?
18674What killed you, foolish boy? 18674 What kind of bird is that yonder in the sky?"
18674What shall we command them to do?
18674What time do you suppose I have for Classics? 18674 What trick is this you have played on me, masters?
18674What use, what use? 18674 What will he say if he finds us here?"
18674What''s the matter? 18674 What, masters, a peach?"
18674What,shouted the other,"you say I am still young?"
18674Whatever is the matter with you?
18674When will it be finished?
18674Where am I?
18674Where are we?
18674Where are you going?
18674Where is the beginning of the world?
18674Who can be knocking in that fashion?
18674Who has done this great evil? 18674 Who knows a man by what he wears, By what he says or by his prayers?
18674Whom have you here, my lad?
18674Why did n''t you say something about it before?
18674Why did you laugh? 18674 Why do n''t you flee the country?"
18674Why do they have a turtle? 18674 Why is it that the gods have not given me a taste of duck during the past year?
18674Why not borrow Mrs. Wang''s charm for a few days until we can pick up a little flesh to keep our bones from clattering? 18674 Why not, boy?
18674Why, surely you ca n''t help me to earn a living?
18674Why, what''s the matter? 18674 Why, you old goose, do n''t you know what a fairy is?"
18674Will it be the largest in the world?
18674Yes, but in what a shape?
18674You remember the day Mr. and Mrs. Chu were here, and how Mrs. Chu returned in the afternoon after master and mistress had gone to the fair? 18674 You would, eh?"
18674You?
18674''What do I care for a spirit that lives on my father''s land?''
18674A duck''s a duck, is n''t it, and surely you would like to know how you lost it?"
18674After all, what was a hook to a fish when he was dying?
18674And Kwan- yu-- what of Kwan- yu, the frantic father?
18674And besides, would not all the other villagers be hungry, too?
18674And is not every lad in China taught to honour his ancestors?
18674And what could he do if he did find you?
18674And why not?
18674Are not the daughters of our nation often wedded long before they reach that age?
18674Are not the wise men always saying that study brings its own reward?
18674Are those big eyes of yours made of glass?"
18674Are you ill?"
18674Are you never coming to the hero of this tale?"
18674Are you not afraid to be alone here at night on the bank of this great river?"
18674Are you ready?"
18674As a cannon- maker you are successful, but who can say about the other task?
18674As she hobbled from the room, she cast sour glances at the judge, muttering over and over again,"Who ever heard of a tiger taking the place of a son?
18674As you have n''t a sign of a scale, how will people judge you?
18674As you look back through your wicked lives can you think of any reason why you deserved this rescue?
18674But surely you would not have a labourer do more than his employer requires?
18674But we must hurry on with our story, or some of our readers will be asking,"But where is Dr. Dog?
18674But what will become of the real me?
18674But, here we are, and that is enough, is n''t it, enough for any one?
18674Ca n''t you recognise your old friend?
18674Can it be that you do not know my rank?
18674Ch''ang was staring at her with wide- open frightened eyes that seemed to be asking,"What can it all mean?
18674Could he have heard correctly?
18674Could his eyes be deceiving him?
18674Could it be possible that they would soon be living in it?
18674Could it be that the turtle would carry him beyond the forest?
18674Could it really be that the old family property would be given back to his father?
18674Could the priest have told the truth?
18674Did his ears deceive him?
18674Did they try to restore them to his people?"
18674Did you not say that you came from the land of dreams?
18674Do n''t you know it is the custom now to put prisoners on their honour?
18674Do n''t you know this is not the proper place for you?"
18674Do n''t you know what the Classics say about such rudeness?"
18674Do n''t you wish it was yours?''
18674Do you know where she hides it?"
18674Do you not know that when she cries the gods themselves are weeping?''"
18674Do you remember now, my child?"
18674Do you think it possible that he could change me in some manner into a fish and accept me as a subject?"
18674Do you think it would be convenient if you had to flop yourself out on to the land every time you wanted a bite to eat?
18674Do you think them suitable to protect you from cold and sickness?
18674Do you wish to enter the doors of a convent where women say farewell to life and all its pleasures?
18674For what strange reason, however, did the gods write this beggar''s name on the stone?"
18674Had Wang discovered the absence of his employer?
18674Had he been dreaming?
18674Has old Black Heart been beating you?"
18674Has your life been filled with sorrow?"
18674Have you not been whipped and punished all your life?
18674Have you nothing new with which to regale my guests on this holiday?"
18674How can a tiger be brought to justice?
18674How can they afford such eating?"
18674How can you say so?
18674How could he say it was my fault?"
18674How then did you learn to look with love at those in tears?"
18674How to get something to eat?
18674Hurt a neighbour''s feelings just for a duck?
18674I will bring it to you in a jiffy, but how shall we exist when our charm is gone?
18674If they should come here, what must I do?"
18674Is it strange that they did not have hearts full of pity for you when you looked like a beggar?"
18674Is that the moon rising over yonder?
18674Is there not one little deed of goodness that was not selfish?
18674Is this an age when old men are good for nothing?"
18674May n''t we keep our sins a little longer?"
18674My darling daughter, where have you been all these years?"
18674No matter if the dragon does think he can fly faster, I beat him, did n''t I?
18674Of course, K''ang- p''u promised, for he was always obedient; and was not this little man who spoke so strangely, the spirit of his grandfather?
18674Oh, how can he cross over?"
18674See the point, eh?
18674Shall I have to be a fox and look like you?"
18674Should he sell his last outer garment for a few pennies and buy millet for her?
18674Surely you would n''t wish them to burn your father''s tablet?"
18674The greybeard bent over until his mouth was at Ying- lo''s ear:"Did you ever see me before?"
18674Then, as the fever began to rise again, he sprang up with a determined cry,"What am I waiting for?
18674There are talking birds and talking beasts for that matter; but talking fish, who ever heard of such a wonder?
18674To cure my daughter?"
18674True, he had been able to produce the magic peach which the mandarin had called for, but his son, where was his son?
18674Was that a servant calling?
18674Were all his hopes to be suddenly dashed by the failure of the metals to mix and harden properly?
18674Were the gods, in answer to his prayer, sending fire to burn the vessel?
18674Were your mistress''s ancestors followers of the sage?"
18674What are you doing inside the temple in the dirt?
18674What can you be talking about?
18674What could have taken place while he was sleeping?
18674What do you know about water?
18674What do you say to going with me then?
18674What do you think of that for honour, Sir Rat?
18674What does he care if I die of a raging fever?
18674What does he care if I pass away?
18674What have I done to be thus denied?"
18674What is the world coming to?"
18674What is to prevent my getting my freedom this very night?
18674What kind of food is your master eating now, that you should be so round and plump when I am thin and scrawny?"
18674What must I do to save my family?
18674What power is it that has saved you from his clutches?
18674What reason have you for wanting to see me weighed down here all the rest of my life with a mountain on my back?
18674What say you, will you accept my offer?"
18674What wonderful discovery have you made-- that every rat has one tail?"
18674What would you do if you really lived here always?"
18674What would you do to keep yourself from starving?
18674When heaven itself has commanded, what can even a princess do but listen to that power which rules the earth?"
18674When others work, why do you lie down and sleep your time away?
18674When would you find them away from home, now that they do n''t have to work any more?
18674Where did you learn so much?"
18674Where should you think I would want to go after my century in prison?
18674Where was he going, and what should he do?
18674Who knows but that they have sent this flock thinking I would have sense enough to grab one?
18674Who now will look after my grave when I am gone?"
18674Who will take care of me in my old age?
18674Why be a coward?
18674Why did you come to see me at all if you thought I did not know you were guilty?"
18674Why do n''t you get up and shake your lazy legs?
18674Why do you make a poor man like me run his legs off for nothing on a hot day?"
18674Why do you raise such an uproar in front of my yamen?
18674Why do you speak of it?"
18674Why have the gods treated me in this cruel way?"
18674Why is it that other people have all the luck?
18674Why is it that to- day you try to get out of your promise?
18674Why not a lion or an elephant?"
18674Why not order her father to bring her to the palace that you may we d her and place her in your royal dwelling?"
18674Why not tell him that old Sen stole his duck, and get him to give Sen a scolding?
18674Why, are you not eighteen?
18674Wo n''t they save you the trouble of wearing clothing?"
18674Would he sound the alarm, and would the whole place soon be alive with men searching for the fever- stricken patient?
18674Would his father come and find out what had happened?
18674Would that not be quite contrary to the teachings of our fathers?
18674Would those three minutes never pass?
18674You are a pretty fellow to be complaining, are n''t you?"
18674You are the same fellow that carried off the woodman last month, are n''t you?
18674You remember all our big dinners that came from the pot?
18674_ your_ father helped make the world?"
18674and all over your body?
18674but did n''t I do a great trick?
18674do n''t you count your old grand- daddy?
18674looking for you in the ashes?
18674losing a duck?
18674said the dog angrily,"what did I tell you?
18674said the small man, laughing,"so you thought you''d bury your old grandfather in feathers, did you?
18674shall you leave us?"
18674she cried,"of what use is it to live?
18674so it''s because I make you a good playmate, eh?
18674they laughed;"do you know what you have done?"
18674what ever shall we do?"
18674what honour has a rat?"
18674what''s that?"
18674what''s the matter, man?"
18674why do n''t you let me out?
18674why had he not asked the friendly nephew a few simple questions?
18674would you hesitate between love upon a throne and death?
18674would you lay your wicked hands on one who made the tears of Kwan- yin flow?
18674you think old Sen is a thief, do you, and that he has been stealing from me?"
32202''An''why so?'' 32202 ''And do you say no more nor that?''
32202''And what do you say to me,''says Saint Kavin,''for makin''her the like?'' 32202 ''Arrah, what is it, Jack?''
32202''Arrah, why, Harry-- why, avick?'' 32202 ''Arrah, why, Harry?
32202''Ay, but, Harry, what''s that rowled up in the tail of your cothamore( big coat)?'' 32202 ''Bad luck to ye,''says he,''my bones is bruck wid yer thricks; what the divil are ye doin''wid me?''
32202''Becase what?'' 32202 ''Blur- an- agers, how kem you to know about my goose?''
32202''But will you gi''me all the ground the goose flewn over?'' 32202 ''But you''ll keep your word thrue?''
32202''Could n''t you lave me cool and comfortable in the river where you snared me, and not disturb me in my duty?'' 32202 ''Did ye hear anything quare, Thady?''
32202''Good morrow to you, Daniel O''Rourke,''says he,''how do you do?'' 32202 ''I''ll give you whatever you ax,''says the King;''is n''t that fair?''
32202''If there was n''t Jack, what''d put Harry, that knows so much, in the state he''s in?'' 32202 ''In the name iv all the blessed saints in heaven,''says Thady,''who the divil are ye?''
32202''Is it a tinker you are?'' 32202 ''It''s jokin''you are,''says Terence, turnin''mighty pale;''how can an ould gandher be my father?''
32202''Jack Rafferty, what is it? 32202 ''Jack Rafferty,''says he, and, by the way, Jack was his tenant,''what the dickens does all this mane?''
32202''Katty,''says he,''what the dickens is in this pot on the fire?'' 32202 ''Oh, my lady,''says the sojer,''how could I have the heart to drownd a beautiful lady like you?''
32202''Then, what are you?'' 32202 ''Well, honest man,''says the King,''and how is it you make your money so aisy?''
32202''What the dickens is he carryin''in the skirts of his big coat?'' 32202 ''Where is it goin''?''
32202''Where the divil have ye put me into?'' 32202 ''Who''s that, that dar to call me nicknames?''
32202''You wo n''t go back o''your word?'' 32202 ''_ Arrah_, Dan,''says he,''do you think me a fool?
32202Am I right now?
32202An''how could a lady live on we''er poor diet?
32202An''what brought you home so soon, Finn?
32202An''who is it, avick?
32202And ca n''t you carry me over?
32202And could we do anything for your comfort, my poor fellow?
32202And is there no one missing from you at Emain?
32202Are there any linen sheets within?
32202Are you able to squeeze water out of that white stone?
32202Are you going to take up the box?
32202Are you mad, Jamie?
32202Are you strong?
32202Are you the fellow,says he,"that made them crowns?"
32202Ay, ay,says he,"is supper ready?"
32202Bless our eyes,cried they,"what does this mean?
32202But,said Finn,"how is it that thy young warriors, valiant and swift, do not repel him, or kill him?"
32202By what way can I leave Terrible Valley?
32202Can you lend us a saucepan, good mother?
32202Did you ever play ball?
32202Did you ever see Finn?
32202Do you know who I am,says the King,"that you make so free, good man?"
32202Do you not know me, Sullivan?
32202Faith,said Finn,"beautiful; and how are you, Oonagh-- and how did you sport your figure during my absence, my bilberry?"
32202For what, plaze your majesty?
32202God save you kindly-- won''t you be sitting?
32202Granua,said she,"are you at home?"
32202Hast thou brought anything from the battle- field?
32202Have n''t you heard that Ur, son of the King, is to marry to- night the woman that he took from the Green Knight of Terrible Valley?
32202How could I?
32202How dare you call me your father?
32202How is this? 32202 How so?"
32202I hae no money to hire a car for you,he answered;"an''how can you travel to Dublin on your foot?"
32202I have not,said Lawn Dyarrig;"as all are going to the wedding, I suppose I may go without offence?"
32202I think, prince,says he,"you''re getting a little tired of my castle?"
32202If I show you the house will you not be satisfied?
32202In what place here has the Green King his castle?
32202Is he to have one?
32202Is it stalin''my horse you are, honest man?
32202Is n''t that your pony?
32202Is there anyone like me in all the world? 32202 Is this where the great Finn M''Coul lives?"
32202Mother,she began, when the old lady came to the door,"do n''t_ you_ know your daughter?"
32202No notion? 32202 Now,"said Lawn Dyarrig to his brothers,"which would you rather be doing-- making a basket or twisting gads( withes)?"
32202Oh, and what can we do?
32202Oh, then, have n''t ye anything done but that?
32202Oh, what advantage has your tree over mine, on which there are three rods of magic and mastery growing?
32202Oh, what are we to do?
32202Oh,said Morraha,"is the woman your wife?"
32202Oh,said my wife,"why are you always laughing?
32202Oh,said the King,"what was all your watching ever?
32202Oh,said the man,"is it not you that have the story?"
32202Oonagh,said he,"can you do anything for me?
32202So,says Tom to the King,"will you let me have the other half of the princess if I bring you the flail?"
32202Surely,said I,"the Churches were not in King O''Toole''s time?"
32202To be sure I have,says the King, moighty high;"sure, ai n''t I the King o''Dublin?"
32202Ubbabow,says the smith,"are you in earnest?"
32202We maun dress her first; but what in the name o''fortune hae I fit for the likes of her to wear?
32202Well, as soon as the bird was gone, says Jer Garvan, says he:''Do you know what that old gandher_ is_, Terence Mooney?''
32202Well, daughter, will you marry the fellow that made these crowns?
32202Well, suppose I give you work?
32202Well, they accordianly went in, and put this question to him,''Harry, what''s wrong, ahagur? 32202 Well, what news?"
32202Well,says he to the smith,"you''re a married man, and what''s to be done?"
32202Well,says he,"what trouble is on you now?"
32202What are you able to do?
32202What beauteous country is that, O gentle daughter of the golden locks? 32202 What can you do?"
32202What do we dread, O blooming Queen? 32202 What do you see?"
32202What do you want?
32202What exceeding fine royal mansion, and also the best that eye hath seen, is this that we are travelling near to, or who is high chief of that place?
32202What father could he have but his own father, the King of Erin?
32202What good would there be in that?
32202What is thy name,said Murtough,"that it may not come upon my lips to utter it?"
32202What is wrong with our father?
32202What news do you bring back with you, Bricriu?
32202What shall be my reward if I kill this man and save Tara?
32202What shall we play for?
32202What sort of a sprisawn goat or sheep from Erin are you?
32202What would you do if you met him?
32202What would you like me to do for you this time?
32202What''ll we do to keep up a lady like thou?
32202What''ll you give me?
32202What''s the business you have there?
32202What''s the matter?
32202When will he be here?
32202When will you marry me?
32202When will you undhertake the job then?
32202Where are you going, Lawn Dyarrig?
32202Where did these thieves say they lived, and what names did they say they were called by?
32202Where is his head?
32202Which of my children is he, O blooming daughter, to whom thou hast given love, or yet affection? 32202 Who are yon two whom I see, O gentle princess?
32202Who are you yourself?
32202Who are you? 32202 Who are you?"
32202Who art thou, O brave youth?
32202Who but me?
32202Who is the King''s son?
32202Who is there?
32202Who will go but me?
32202Who will go in the basket now?
32202Who will go now?
32202Who''ll go and get the wheat ground?
32202Who''ll make the cake?
32202Whose son is Arthur?
32202Why are you so enraged, my boy?
32202Why does she welcome me?
32202Why is this?
32202Why would n''t I get her for a wee piece?
32202Why, thin, bad luck to your impidence,says the waiver;"would no place sarve you but that?
32202Would not it be better for me to do something else for you?
32202Would you know them again if you saw them?
32202Would you know your pony if you saw her?
32202Would you venture there-- you that''s the widow''s only son? 32202 You''re Mrs. M''Coul, I suppose?"
32202Your souls? 32202 ''Ah, then, sir,''said I,''will you drop me on the ship, if you please?'' 32202 ''And my lord, sir,''says I,''who in the world_ axed_ you to fly so far-- was it I? 32202 ''And now, may I make bowld to ax, how is your goose, King O''Toole?'' 32202 ''And where are you going all the way so fast?'' 32202 ''Bother you,''says I to myself, but I did not speak out, for where was the use? 32202 ''Good morrow to you,''says he,''Daniel O''Rourke; how are you in health this morning?'' 32202 ''How will you divide it?'' 32202 ''I am afraid,''says I,''your honour''s making game of me; for whoever heard of riding a- horseback on an eagle before?'' 32202 ''Indeed, sir,''says I,''''tis much against my will that I''m here at all; but how am I to go back?'' 32202 ''Is it out of the island you want to go, Dan?'' 32202 ''Is it sit down on the moon?'' 32202 ''Is n''t it cute the fairy docthor found him out?'' 32202 ''O Fionn,''asked the man of the door- post,''do you feel surprised at the appearance and arrangements of this house?'' 32202 ''Pray, sir,''says I,''may I ask how many you are in family that you would not give a poor traveller lodging? 32202 ''Thundher an''ounze, what''s over them at all?'' 32202 ''What brings you here, Dan?'' 32202 ''What brought you here, Dan?'' 32202 ''What would you say,''says he,''if I made your ould goose as good as new?'' 32202 ''Where in the world are you going, sir?'' 32202 ''Why, then,''said I to him-- thinking he did not know the right road home-- very civilly, because why? 32202 ''You ugly unnatural_ baste_, and is this the way you serve me at last? 32202 ( Eh, what is this?... 32202 All at once the dead man got up in his shroud, and stood before her, and said,All alone, fair maid?"
32202And he said,"Come into the house, Bricriu; why are you looking about you?"
32202And is it spyling my brekquest yiz are, you dirty bastes?"
32202And now where are you going, Arthur?"
32202And they said,"Tell us, maiden, why you brought him to his death, if so be that he was dear to thee?"
32202And what brings you here?"
32202And when it was done he put it an his head, and says she,"Is it puttin''a great heavy iron pot an your head you are by way iv a hat?"
32202And whom may you want here?"
32202Are we not better without it?"
32202Are you any good with hammer and tongs?
32202But at last he got up, and, says he,"All alone, fair maid?"
32202But what does this mane?
32202But, Jack, this bates Bannagher,''says he again, puttin''the spoonful of pudden into his mouth;''has there been drink here?''
32202Come, boys, where''s your pitchforks?''
32202Conn the Hundred- Fighter answered,"Our grief is not such as you suppose; and why should I not tell a cause of shame, which is known far and wide?
32202Did not I beg and pray and beseech you to stop half an hour ago?''
32202Do n''t you know I''m a Connachtman?"
32202Do n''t you see the smoke that''s out of it?''
32202Do you not catch the tiny clamour, Busy click of an elfin hammer, Voice of the Lepracaun singing shrill As he merrily plies his trade?
32202Finn, who was dressed for the occasion as much like a boy as possible, got up, and bringing Far Rua out,"Are you strong?"
32202Had he a brown patch in the arm of his coat?"
32202He asked her, too, did she believe in the God of the clerics, or was she herself some goddess of the older world?
32202How am I to fight this man- mountain-- this huge cross between an earthquake and a thunderbolt-- with a pancake in his pocket that was once----?"
32202How can a lady eat we''er( our) poor diet and live in we''er poor way?
32202How long since you left home?"
32202I asked,"Why are you crying?"
32202I know who''ll carry the whip hand, anyhow; but in the manetime let us ax Harry within what ails the sun?''
32202I myself asked then of them, did they hear if Fionn was alive, or did anyone else of the Fianna live, or what disaster had swept them away?
32202If you could see that sprisawn of a goat or sheep out of Erin taking meat and drink with her all day, what would you do?"
32202Is anything better, anything better?
32202Is he at home?"
32202Jamie told the story of the night''s adventure, ending by saying,"Surely you wouldna have allowed me to let her gang with them to be lost for ever?"
32202Katty, ahagur, will you tell us what it manes?''
32202Keep your toe in your pump, will you?
32202Little Cowboy, what have you heard, Up on the lonely rath''s green mound?
32202Look down in the next field, and do n''t you see two men and a gun?
32202Now, tell me, can thy God work the like?"
32202Of best aspect that the eye has seen; or is it the''Land of Youth''?"
32202On the evening of that day the old King came and asked,"Did you get my grandmother''s ring?"
32202One of them said to another:"Why should you be making comparison with me, when there is not a king nor knight that does not come to look at my tree?"
32202So he looked at me in the face, and says he to me,''Daniel O''Rourke,''says he,''how do you do?''
32202So she did, and when all was ready, says her mother to her,"Which will you have-- half of these with my blessing, or the whole with my curse?"
32202Suddenly she paused, and said aloud,"Where are the women; they delay too long?"
32202Surely, mother, you know me now?"
32202The King came, and saw the cradle coloured with the blood, and he cried out,"Where was the child gone?"
32202The King leaned past his son Art the Solitary, and said to a certain Druid who sat beside Art,"Is this the son of Midna come before his time?"
32202The King''s Son Who rideth through the driving rain At such a headlong speed?
32202The grey old man was sitting there under the bush, and said,"King''s son, will you have a game to- day?"
32202The hag asked me,"Why is he bellowing?"
32202The old man drew out a pack of cards and asked,"Can you play these?"
32202The second giant came running, and said,"What''s the meaning of throwing my wall and letting in your cattle on my estate?
32202The_ ould_ gander, who was their general, turning about his head, cried out to me,''Is that you, Dan?''
32202Then Murtough was glad, and he said,"Dost thou not know me, maiden?"
32202Then he said,"What would you like me to do for you, King''s son?"
32202Then said Culain,"Have all thy retinue come in, O Conchubar?"
32202Then she said to him,"Do you see that great house yonder?
32202Then the oldest monk came forward, in Irish tongue spake he:"Thou wearest the holy Augustine''s dress, and who hath given it to thee?"
32202There was no one but an old hag, tall and frightful, and she asked me,"What sort of person are you?"
32202They asked of her,"Who art thou, maiden, and wherefore art thou come to the house of mourning?
32202They''ll kill you, an''then what''ll come o''me?"
32202This feat nearly threw Oonagh herself off her guard; but what wo n''t a woman''s sagacity and presence of mind accomplish?
32202Well, prince and princess flew into one another''s arms, and says the little man, says he,"Why are n''t you eating?"
32202What about the washing and sweeping?"
32202What have they done on you?"
32202What is it now, for if anybody alive knows''tis yourself?''
32202What kind of bread is this you gave me?"
32202What place are you going to?"
32202What wizard by yon holy tree Mutters unto the sky Where Macha''s flame- tongued horses flee On hoofs of thunder by?
32202What would you do to him if you met him?"
32202What would you do?"
32202What''s to be done?"
32202When the old King went away Finnuala came and asked,"What have you to do to- day?"
32202Whence came you?
32202Where are they, and where are their tiny commodities?
32202Where are they, at all?
32202Where are you going?"
32202Where''s all your invention?
32202Who is it at all?"
32202Who is there?"
32202Who is this you have with you?"
32202Who knows what harm it might do?
32202Who spoiled our tune?"
32202Who was Ur''s father?"
32202Whose son is Arthur?"
32202Why do you ax?''
32202Why do you not praise me?"
32202Why should I renew her grief by reminding her of her loss?"
32202Why, avick?''
32202Will you come, too, Jamie Freel?"
32202Wirra, man alive, what''s to be done?''
32202You queer little drolls, Do you mean----?"
32202is that the way you treat us?"
32202might not I have ate him?''
32202of fairest form, beauty, and countenance?
32202said I;''is it upon that little round thing, then?
32202said the King,"and why do you so maltreat my nobles?"
32202says Ould Nick,"is that the way?
32202says she,"if the pooka does be cleaning up everything that way when we are asleep, what should we be slaving ourselves for doing his work?"
32202says she,''can you see anything?''
32202says the boy that was next to the car, turnin''as white as the top iv a mushroom;''did ye hear anything quare soundin''out iv the hamper?''
32202what should fly by close to my ear but a flock of wild geese, all the way from my own bog of Ballyasheenagh, else how should they know_ me_?
32202what''s this for?''
28314''And can you make such a ship?''
28314''And how can I do that?''
28314''And what besides?''
28314''Are you mad?''
28314''Are you warm, maiden?''
28314''Are you warm, maiden?''
28314''Bread?
28314''But how did you get those splendid cattle?''
28314''But how in the world,''he added,''am I to collect all the wolves of the kingdom on to that hill over there?''
28314''But what am I to give you, old Witch; for surely you are not going to do this for nothing?''
28314''But where is he to find the Witch- maiden?''
28314''But why did you come up to us again?''
28314''Ca n''t you see that my hands and feet are nearly frozen?''
28314''Can I get a place here as servant in the castle?''
28314''Can I survive my misfortunes?''
28314''Can he conjure up the Devil?''
28314''Could you not protect me?''
28314''Did n''t I kill him?
28314''Did you pay attention to everything?''
28314''Do n''t you hear?''
28314''Do n''t you think that a desperate errand?''
28314''Do you call that enough?''
28314''Do you hear?
28314''Do you mean to say there is no straw in the village?''
28314''Do you really believe that it was just for the pleasure of talking that I gave you the advice you have neglected so abominably?''
28314''Do you see that great tree there?''
28314''Do you think I should also get some cattle if I went to the bottom of the river?''
28314''Do you think we have money by the bushel?''
28314''Do you think,''the Prince Gnome was saying,''do you think that I would not break my chains if I could?
28314''Fellow, what are you puffing at up there?''
28314''Good woman,''he said to her,''can you not show me the way out of the wood?''
28314''Have n''t I drowned you?''
28314''Have you a passport?''
28314''Have you come to take me?''
28314''Have you got the tinder- box also?''
28314''Have you nothing to say about it?''
28314''Have you quite forgotten me?''
28314''How can one get to see her?''
28314''How comes this?''
28314''How do you like them?''
28314''I hope that this, at least, is not real?''
28314''I must fly away to warmer lands: will you come with me?
28314''Is anybody up there?''
28314''Is it not a beautiful piece of cloth?''
28314''Is that all?''
28314''Is that all?''
28314''Is that what vexes you?''
28314''Is the woman out of her mind?''
28314''May I be allowed to ask if you are gold?''
28314''No doubt you are a diamond?''
28314''Now what can he want with it?''
28314''Oh,''said he,''why is faithlessness so great in the world?''
28314''Shall I sing once more for the Emperor?''
28314''Stop,''cried Martin;''where are you dragging that poor cat?''
28314''Surely for a hundred florins you''ll sell it?''
28314''The Blue Mountains?''
28314''Then why in the world are you going?''
28314''Through the wood?''
28314''We know who is going to have soup and pancakes; we know who is going to have porridge and sausages-- isn''t it interesting?''
28314''Well, maiden,''he snapped out,''do you know who I am?
28314''Well, my good old dame, what can I do for you?''
28314''Well, now, where did you get all this money?''
28314''Well, there''s a whole lake in front of you; why do n''t you drink some of that?''
28314''Well, what does he say?''
28314''Were they of noble birth, then?''
28314''What are you in need of, or what has sent you here?''
28314''What are you thinking of, my son?''
28314''What can that commotion be by the pigsties?''
28314''What do you say?''
28314''What does he say now?''
28314''What does he say?''
28314''What does this mean?''
28314''What harm has the poor beast done?''
28314''What has a bird, in spite of all his singing, in the winter- time?
28314''What have you found now?''
28314''What is that?''
28314''What is that?''
28314''What is that?''
28314''What is that?''
28314''What is the condition?''
28314''What is there odd about it?''
28314''What shall I do down there?''
28314''What sort of a riddle is it?''
28314''What sort of wood is it, then?''
28314''What was the child''s name?''
28314''What will you take for the pot?''
28314''What would be the good of my taking a near shot?''
28314''What would become of a dolt like you?''
28314''What''s the meaning of this?''
28314''What''s this?''
28314''What''s this?''
28314''Where am I to look for them, then?''
28314''Where are you off to?
28314''Where are your brothers?''
28314''Where can I be coming now?''
28314''Where did you come from, my lad?''
28314''Where did you get so much money from?''
28314''Where else should I be going,''he said,''than through the wood?''
28314''Where have you come from, then?''
28314''Who can not escape you?''
28314''Who is it, and how did you get it?''
28314''Who knows who this girl is?''
28314''Who knows?''
28314''Who told you to do that?''
28314''Who''s there?''
28314''Whom do you take me for?''
28314''Why are you lying there?
28314''Why are you standing there looking so sad?''
28314''Why can not you marry someone in your own rank?
28314''Why not?''
28314''Why not?''
28314''Will the youth have the sense not to let himself be caught in her toils?''
28314''Will you help me to hold him?''
28314''With the crow?
28314''You will take care of the cattle, wo n''t you?''
28314211_ The Sun- hero guards the Apples of the Sun_ 214''_ Who''s there_?''
28314A voice came from within and asked her,''Where do you come from, and where do you want to go?''
28314Again, if there are really no fairies, why do people believe in them, all over the world?
28314All his colour had disappeared; whether this had happened on his travels or whether it was the result of trouble, who can say?
28314All round it were little bells, and when the pot boiled they jingled most beautifully and played the old tune--''Where is Augustus dear?
28314Am I not fit to be Emperor?
28314Am I stupid?
28314And going where this pathway goes, You too, at last, may find, who knows?
28314And he went into his kingdom and shut the door in her face, and she had to stay outside singing--''Where''s my Augustus dear?
28314And how had all this been done?
28314And immediately he knew her again, and said:''Do you remember how I told you that day that you would betray me?
28314And the witch returned to see how the children were getting on; and she crept up to the window, and whispered:''Are you weaving, my little dear?''
28314Are you come to visit our king?''
28314Are you going to send that, too, to the Princess?''
28314Are you still warm, little love?''
28314Are you warm, you beautiful girl?''
28314At last she said to the King that he ought to ask his daughter whether she would not like to have another husband instead of the Crab?
28314But she had only gone a few steps when the bells rang out so prettily--''Where is Augustus dear?
28314But the witch answered,''My dear husband, what do you mean?
28314But what shall I give you as a reward to begin with?''
28314But where was it to be found?
28314Can I be not fit for my office?
28314Can I be of any help to you, and thus repay your great kindness to me?''
28314Can I be of any help to you?
28314Can I not manage to see her somehow?
28314Do n''t you know what is known throughout all the country side?''
28314Do you think she will see that young man sitting under the tree?''
28314Do you think you can undertake this?''
28314For who can fetch them?
28314He awoke instantly, and the first word he said was,''Have you seen her?''
28314He collected a heap of gold, but at last he thought to himself,''What good is all my gold to me if I stay at home?
28314He opened the big gate leading into the courtyard, and was just going to walk in, when seven dragons rushed on him and asked him what he wanted?
28314He said to him,''Will you be my servant and travel with me?''
28314He stopped the Prince and asked him in a harsh voice:''Are you the man who has just fed my body- guard?''
28314He turned once more to the two brothers and said,''His diabolical magic has helped him again, but now what third task shall we set him to do?
28314How can I reward you?''
28314How shall we travel about together without being odious the one to the other?''
28314How was he ever to appear before her with this tale?
28314In a few minutes King Frost came past, and, looking at the girl, he said:[ Illustration:"Maiden are you Warm?"]
28314In a minute the grateful fish swam towards the bank on which Iwanich was standing, and said:''What do you command, my friend and benefactor?''
28314In a moment the bird swooped down beside him and asked:''What do you wish me to do?''
28314Is it in your family?''
28314Is it you?''
28314Is n''t that true?''
28314Is there such a bird in my empire, and so near as in my garden?
28314It kept coming nearer and growing bigger, and what was this after all but the Eagle?
28314Must I take this order to my poor son?''
28314No sooner had he done so than the wounded Giant limped up to him and whispered softly,''Herd- boy, where are you?''
28314Now it was certainly a little audacious of him to venture to say to the Emperor''s daughter,''Will you marry me?''
28314Now tell me, O King, plump and plain, will you give your daughter to my son as wife?''
28314Now the poor old woman was mortally afraid and, in a trembling voice she asked:''Is that really your royal will, O King?
28314Now, if_ you_ had been the Prince, would you not rather have stayed with the pretty witch- maiden?
28314One of them said to the others,''If we are caught, we shall be hanged on the gallows; how shall we set about it?''
28314Overcome with pity, Martin spoke to the butchers, saying:''Friends, why are you beating the poor dog so cruelly?''
28314People would like to have heard it again, but the Emperor thought that the living Nightingale should sing now-- but where was she?
28314Shall we go and see how it is she does it?''
28314Shall we not seek our own pleasures, and forget the little one?''
28314She asked him,''Why have you come here?''
28314So one day she went to an old Witch and said to her:''I should so much like to have a tiny, little child; can you tell me where I can get one?''
28314So they stroked her, and fed her with ham, and said to her:''Pussy, grey pussy, tell us how we are to get away from the witch?''
28314Suddenly a little old woman appeared before her, holding an apple in her hand, and said,''Why do you weep, my Queen, and what makes you so unhappy?''
28314The Dragon made a face, and growled again three times,''Hum, hum, hum,''and said to the third,''Do you know what your wineglass shall be?''
28314The Dragon was much annoyed, and hummed and hawed a good deal, and asked the second,''But what shall be your spoon?''
28314The King asked,''Who are you?
28314The Prince asked him,''Do you not know where the Dragon lives who keeps the daughter of the Flower Queen prisoner?''
28314The Prince then forced himself to ask,''What is your name?''
28314The Serpent glided over the clothes which were spread for him, came to the Lake, and asked it who had strewed those soft things on the path?
28314The first word he said to the lad was,''Have you seen her?''
28314The giants came up, and the first pushed him with his foot, and said,''What sort of an earthworm is that?''
28314The master said to him,''Hunter, what are you aiming at?''
28314The next morning, when the King awoke, what do you think he saw?
28314The one was saying to the other as the weary youth lay down,''Is there anything the least wonderful or remarkable about this neighbourhood?''
28314The other said,''Do you see that large cornfield there?
28314The witch asked,''Countryman, who are you, and what is your business?''
28314The wounded Giant remained behind to the last and called out,''Herd- boy, where are you?''
28314The youth pretended to have forgotten what to do, and asked what finger he must put the ring on so that no sharp weapon could hurt him?
28314Then her mother flew into a passion, gave her a box on the ear, and cried out,''Does not even that prince please you, you fool?''
28314Then she grew frightened, and thought,''What can a young lassie do with an iron stove?''
28314Then the little sister cried and said,''Can you not be freed?''
28314There were hundreds of princesses who would gladly have said''Yes,''but would she say the same?
28314They all say she is very pretty, but what''s the use of that if she has to sit for ever in the great copper castle with all the towers?
28314They called to her and said''Who are you?''
28314They said at last,''What use was it our deserting?
28314This only happens once in two years, so you will let me go out?''
28314Was the sleep he had last night not enough for him?
28314Waska, being very agile, climbed up by the outside to the grated window, and called in an anxious voice:''Are you alive, master?''
28314Waska, my faithful little cat, is that you?''
28314What are you doing up that tree?''
28314What are you thinking about all alone by yourself?
28314What can it mean?''
28314What do you intend to be?''
28314What does he look like?''
28314What punishment shall be dealt to her?''
28314What shall I do with them?''
28314What was to be done now?
28314What will become of me?
28314When Martin got home, his mother met him with the question:''Well, what have you bought?''
28314When he had eaten and drunk as much as he could he thought to himself,''Why should n''t I put a loaf of bread in my pocket?
28314When he handed his mother the comb that his aunt had given him, she was much amazed and asked him,''But how did you manage to get back so quickly?''
28314When he reached his home his mother greeted him with the question:''Well, what have you brought back?''
28314When she came home the Mouse asked,''What was this child called?''
28314Where are you carrying that straw to?''
28314Where do you live?''
28314Where have you been all these years?''
28314Where is my tinder- box?''
28314Where is the harm?
28314Whither are you going?''
28314Who knows if, after all, help may not be sent to you?''
28314Who knows that_ he_ is n''t in there still?''
28314Who knows where she may be, and what fairy may have her in his keeping?
28314Who will buy skins?''
28314Who will buy skins?''
28314Why did you not scratch their eyes out?''
28314Why has no one ever said anything to me about it?''
28314Will you not give her a glass of mead?
28314Will you stay here with me till that time is over?''
28314Would you like to have the most beautiful woman in the world for your wife?''
28314Would you not like to bathe in it, fair Queen?''
28314You can speak, can you, you ridiculous crab?''
28314You must get it away from her at whatever cost; do you hear?
28314You stole my most precious jewel from me, and do you expect to live happily as the King''s son- in- law?
28314[ Illustration: The Irishman Arives at the Blue Mountains]''Where are you going to?''
28314[ Illustration: The Soldier Fills his Knapsack with Money]''What do you want to do with the tinder- box?''
28314[ Illustration: The Young Man Gives the Donkeys to the Miller] The miller replied,''Why not?
28314[ Illustration: Who''s There?]
28314are those the great people?''
28314he called out,''what are you doing down there?''
28314he cried to him,''what are you seeking?''
28314he cried;''shall I never see my lovely Princess again?
28314he cried;''what am I to do now?
28314he exclaimed;''what is to be done?
28314he shouted to him,''what are you aiming at?
28314he shouted to him,''why are you carrying wood through a forest?''
28314he sighed;''what in the world shall I do?
28314how could you help me?
28314replied Blockhead- Hans;''then can I roast a crow with them?''
28314said his brothers,''what are you going to do with it?''
28314said the King,''seeing they are so dangerous, and no one has ever yet ventured to go against them?''
28314said the Princess;''but have you anything you can roast them in?
28314said the Princess;''but where shall we get the soup from?''
28314said the blower,''we are prisoners?
28314said the old man;''and what are they doing there?''
28314the rainy day was close at hand, for their meal was all consumed, and who is prepared to face starvation with two hundred florins at their disposal?
28314thought he,''can I be stupid?
28314what am I coming to?''
28314what are you doing, hopping on one leg?''
28314what have you got in your sack?''
28314what have you to do with it?
28314where are you going?''
47178And did you find out who it is that steals them?
47178And do you know to whom it belongs?
47178And he wishes the hand of my daughter?
47178And how did your mother like the price you got for old Whitey?
47178And how do you call him?
47178And how much did you get for it?
47178And how much do you think you''ll get for the white cow at the fair?
47178And how will that be?
47178And what is it you will choose?
47178And what is the message your master sends?
47178And what would you advise us to do for him?
47178And why are you weeping so bitterly?
47178And would it be possible for anyone to get that horse?
47178And you will take me back to- morrow to my brother?
47178Are you looking for that old skin?
47178Are you not my nursling?
47178Because you are so careless as to lose the ring, is that any reason your daughter should remain unmarried all her life?
47178Brother, how would it be if we proclaimed ourselves kings of the earth and sea, and made all of the other fish and animals our subjects?
47178But what have I to do with all that?
47178But will you not take me to see my little brother first?
47178Can it be that this is not a cake at all, but the beautiful Helen, who has taken this form?
47178Can you tell me where the black mare has gone?
47178Can you tell me where the gray woman''s black mare has gone?
47178Did you catch the same boy?
47178Did you get him this time?
47178Did you see the old woman? 47178 Do you not hear?"
47178Do you not know that this city belongs to a terrible snake with three heads, and that he eats every living thing? 47178 Do you not remember that if the dragon finds you here he will tear you to pieces?"
47178Has any misfortune happened to my dear daughter?
47178Has he many more jewels like this?
47178Have you brought home anything to eat?
47178Have you no children?
47178Have you nothing here for me to eat?
47178Have you thought of what my first task shall be?
47178How did I come here, and what has become of my master?
47178How far is it to Snoring now, you in the bag?
47178How far is it to Snoring?
47178How have you come here?
47178How is that, my master?
47178How is this?
47178How much money did you get for the cow?
47178I see you have a pitcher,said the fairy,"and as I am very thirsty, will you not draw some water in it for me to drink?"
47178IS IT YOU, FAIR ONE?]
47178Is he at home?
47178Is it not enough that I am rich and young and that I please you? 47178 Is it true,"he asked,"that you can bring dead trees to life and make them blossom, as I have heard?"
47178Is that what you sold the cow for? 47178 Is your little boy Buttercup at home to- day?"
47178Is your little boy Buttercup at home to- day?
47178May I come in and rest a bit?
47178May I come in and rest my bones a bit?
47178May I come in and rest my poor old bones for a minute?
47178Merchant,called Haamdaanee,"how much do you ask for your gazelles?"
47178Oh, my good Panigwun, you are not asleep, are you?
47178Tell me, my daughter, how has this happened? 47178 Tell me, old woman,"he cried,"have you seen a beautiful young girl anywhere in the forest?
47178Tell me, old woman,he cried,"was it you who put this ring in the cake?"
47178The Rabbit?
47178Then where are the flowers I gave you?
47178Then you will not take me to see my little brother to- day?
47178Very well,said the king;"and when will you try?"
47178Well, and what do you think of that?
47178Well, what were they talking about?
47178What are you doing in such a lonely place as this, my child?
47178What are you looking at?
47178What can I do to help you, brother?
47178What could my master do with a diamond like this? 47178 What do you want here?"
47178What do you wish to do with it?
47178What evil spell has been laid upon my precious beauty?
47178What has happened to you, friend Deer? 47178 What have you done, and where is Mishosha?"
47178What is it? 47178 What is that you say?"
47178What is the matter, Rabbit?
47178What is the matter, Rabbit?
47178What is the next task that I am to perform?
47178What is this I smell?
47178What is this animal, and where does it come from?
47178What means this golden collar? 47178 What sword is that?"
47178What will you sell him for?
47178What will you show them?
47178What would you have of me, brother?
47178Where did you get the cake?
47178Where-- where is he?
47178Who are you and whence come you, O Fair One?
47178Who are you, and how do you happen to be living in this jungle all alone?
47178Who brought it to you?
47178Who was that?
47178Why are you so sad, my master?
47178Why do you follow after these seven princesses?
47178Why do you kiss me?
47178Why have you returned?
47178Why not?
47178Will you come when I call you or will you not?
47178Will you not take me to see my little brother to- day?
47178You fool,she cried, and she was ready to beat it in her rage,"why did you not hide among the fishes as I bade you?"
47178A beautiful young girl dressed as a bride?"
47178And did she lay her spell upon you?
47178And who has wounded you in this way?"
47178As soon as the Evil One saw her he asked,"Have you opened the Red door?"
47178At length he said,"Are you looking for your other legging and moccasin?
47178Do you suppose there is another one like it in all the world?"
47178Do you think I am a pin cushion?"
47178Haamdaanee took the gazelle aside and said to it,"What are we to do now?
47178How do you expect us to fill our stomachs and pay the landlord with such nonsense as that?"
47178I wonder what it can be?"
47178Is the brindled cow for sale, too?"
47178Is this a trick you are playing upon me?
47178Is this true?"
47178One day the younger princess, whose name was Balna, said to her sister,"Why should we be so unhappy here?
47178The first thing he asked her was,"Where are the flowers I gave you to wear?"
47178The first thing the Evil One said was,"Did you open the Red door?"
47178Then he said to his horse,"Shall we follow after them now, or shall we eat and drink first?"
47178Then he took counsel with his coal- black horse, and asked it,"Shall we ride after them at once, or shall we eat and drink first?"
47178What has happened?"
47178Which shall I take?"
47178Whom did you meet while you were away?"
47178Why could n''t you have been satisfied with one like ourselves for a nurse?"
47178Will you not give me some water from your pitcher?"
47178Will you not give me some water?"
47178cried the Sun,"is it you, fair one?
47178cried the Sun,"is it you, fair one?"
47178there, you inside the sack, ca n''t you keep a little quieter?"
47178what will you do now?"
4357Am I not a great magician? 4357 Am I really different in some way from all the others?
4357Are there, then, no bandits in Chicago?
4357Are they armed?
4357Are you Jane Gladys Brown?
4357Are you happy now?
4357Are you sure you have made them strong enough?
4357Are you willing to pay for such accomplishments?
4357Are you?
4357But how did you get here?
4357But what are we to do now?
4357Ca n''t I marry a mother, instead?
4357Ca n''t you marry her yourself?
4357Cab, ma''am?
4357Can any of you read?
4357Could you give me something to cure my rheumatism?
4357Did he put the pump in the well?
4357Did n''t you burn the paper?
4357Did you call the police?
4357Do you give up?
4357Ever ben to school?
4357Have you changed two of them into pigs?
4357Have you, indeed?
4357How can a butterfly serve a man?
4357How could a wax dummy run away?
4357How did I happen to catch you?
4357How did you get in?
4357How do you know? 4357 How do you spell Gladys?"
4357How much am I offered for the coronet of the queen of Quok?
4357How shall I do that?
4357How will you do it?
4357How?
4357If I could change a child into a pig by touching it with the magic compound, what could I change a pig into, I wonder?
4357If it were the fashion to wear knooks perched upon women''s hats would you be contented to stay there? 4357 Is everybody going crazy at the same time?"
4357Is n''t it hard work?
4357Is that private fortune you mentioned large enough to repay her?
4357Mine, did you say?
4357No; what''s school?
4357Oh, you do? 4357 Pink is a pretty color,"said the wizard,"and it''s unusual for a dog, is n''t it?"
4357Then what shall I do?
4357Then what shall we do for a living?
4357Then who shall take his place?
4357Then you think the beetle stole the money?
4357They have guns and swords and pistols and axes and-- and--"And what?
4357What about it?
4357What amuses you?
4357What are they for?
4357What are you going to do?
4357What did you do before I gave you the money?
4357What do you suppose possessed the author to make you so hungry for girls? 4357 What do you use that scythe for?"
4357What do you want?
4357What does it mean to be killed?
4357What for?
4357What have we to do with fashions, anyway?
4357What shall we do now?
4357What sort of a dog?
4357What will happen if I give up?
4357What''re ye doin''hear, ye rascal?
4357What''s that?
4357What''s that?
4357What''s that?
4357What''s wrong with you?
4357What, then, shall we do?
4357What?
4357Where did you get the magic compound that cured me?
4357Where is the coronet?
4357Which of us are you going to attack first?
4357Who are you?
4357Why can not you blow me a dog out of glass?
4357Why did n''t he stop her?
4357Why did n''t you stay in the book, where you were put?
4357Why have you treated me so cruelly and set the glass dog on me?
4357Why is it that I''m able to move around while everyone else is-- is-- froze up?
4357Why should I?
4357Why?
4357Why?
4357Will one drop cure my rheumatism?
4357Will you return to me in a year and a day and become my captive, if I allow you to escape?
4357Wo n''t you let me go now?
4357Would you mind, miss, if I just crossed the alley to speak a word to Mrs. Carleton''s girl?
4357Yet you like to live, do you not?
4357You are my friends, are you not?
4357You did n''t expect anything of this sort, did you?
4357And why not?"
4357But I''m a frightful looking creature, nevertheless; am I not?"
4357But what is your errand?"
4357But, tell me, why do you come each day to the brook?"
4357Ca n''t you see what you''ve done?"
4357Can a dummy live?"
4357Can a dummy talk?
4357Can a dummy walk?
4357Can you tell us of a secret cave?"
4357Did you ever hear such superb music?"
4357Do n''t you know who I am?"
4357Do n''t you suppose Mr. Grizzly, you could manage to eat a clown, a donkey and a monkey after you finish the girl?"
4357Do you eat animals, also?"
4357Do you promise?"
4357For how are we to be bandits, let me ask, unless we are wicked?"
4357Have you ever been one yourself?"
4357He looked angry and annoyed, however, and growled out:"Well, when do you intend to release me?"
4357How am I going to live if the chief counselor returns to Mary Ann Brodjinski her millions?"
4357How would Nyana look after you have pulled her teeth of pearls, plucked out her amethyst eyes and shaved her golden head?"
4357I do n''t suppose you want to make an end of all business and pleasure, and war and love, and misery and ambition and everything else, do you?
4357If that artist did n''t know how to draw properly why did he try to make a donkey at all?"
4357Immediately thereafter he spoke to the butterfly in its own language, saying:"Why did you enter this room?"
4357Is her name really in the book?"
4357Is that all you want?"
4357Now, I called on him the other day and asked him to buy the''Complete Works of Peter Smith,''and what do you suppose he did?"
4357Now, then, what do you want?"
4357Now, then,"he added, crossly,"are you going to get that rope off?"
4357The robbers looked at one another with genuine alarm, and Lugui asked, tremblingly:"Are there many of them?"
4357The sister, knowing the shriek to be one of fear, leaped upon a chair and exclaimed:"What is it?
4357Then, recovering from her alarm, she again bent over the beetle, who answered her:"Why should n''t I talk, if I have anything to say?
4357Well-- what are you staring at?
4357What color of glass shall I use?"
4357What do you think of such treatment as that from the''best papa in the world,''eh?"
4357What is it?"
4357What is it?"
4357What law is there, among birds or knooks, that requires us to be the slaves of fashion?"
4357What shall I do?"
4357When the butterfly flew in at the door of the mandarin''s laundry he asked, eagerly:"Well, did you meet a child?"
4357Where are your wings?"
4357Where else could real money come from?"
4357Where is it?"
4357Who ever before heard of a feathered polar bear?"
4357Why, O Jolly One, did you fall into my hole?
4357Wot''ll ye''ave?"
4357You know children, do you not?--boys and girls?"
4357asked Gouie,"or do you still wish to fight?"
4357cried the butcher, angrily;"did n''t ye promise to put that beast inter Plympton''s pasture?
4357cried the glass- blower, throwing down the rope,"have you really such a thing?"
4357moaned the girl;"why did Uncle Walter ever send you here in this chest?"
4357what is it?"
4357what is the matter now?"
34339''What''s the good o''that, sir?'' 34339 ''Where''tis all a hill, sir, Never can be holes: Why should their shoes have soles, sir, When they''ve got no souls?''"
34339Ai n''t it yours, too, father?
34339Am I, mother? 34339 And I never knew it!--Then perhaps you can tell me why my grandmother has brought me here?
34339And do n''t you know for what purpose they do it?
34339And what happened after that?
34339And what more do you see?
34339And what will you do next, grandmother?
34339And when shall I see her?
34339And who makes the chicken broth for you?
34339And why is n''t it hers now?
34339And why should the goblins mind_ you_, pray?
34339And yet_ you_ wo n''t believe_ me_, Curdie?
34339And_ you_ wo n''t say I''m ugly, any more-- will you, princess?
34339Are those horrid creatures gone?
34339Are you a hundred?
34339But do n''t you hear my grandmother talking to me?
34339But how did you come to be in my house, and me not know it?
34339But how did you find your way to me?
34339But how do you get at the eggs? 34339 But how do you make it shine through the walls?"
34339But how ever did Lootie come to let you go into the mountain alone?
34339But somebody knows that you are in the house?
34339But what do you make of the grandmother? 34339 But what do you mean by the king and queen?"
34339But what shall we do when you are at the palace?
34339But what use can I make of it, if it lies in your cabinet?
34339But what will Lootie be thinking? 34339 But what?"
34339But why do n''t we wear shoes like them, father? 34339 But why do_ you_ think we shall be safe?"
34339But why should our poor creatures be deprived of so much nourishment? 34339 But you still think the lode does come through into our house?"
34339But, Curdie,said his mother,"why should n''t you go with the king?
34339By came a birdie:''Goblin, what do you do?'' 34339 Can you tell me what I am spinning?"
34339Did n''t I tell you the first was from upstairs?
34339Did n''t she speak as if she saw those other things herself, Curdie?
34339Did she die_ very_ soon? 34339 Did you expect me to believe you, princess?"
34339Do n''t you see the lovely fire of roses-- white ones amongst them this time?
34339Do you know, Curdie?
34339Do you live in this room always?
34339Do you mean to insinuate_ I''ve_ got toes, you unnatural wretch?
34339Do you think you would like to sleep with me?
34339Do you work all day and night too, great- great- great- great grandmother?
34339Does it, Lootie?
34339Had n''t we better be moving?
34339Have I done anything to vex you, grandmother?
34339Have you, indeed, my boy?
34339How can that be?
34339How could I help it? 34339 How did you get in?"
34339How do you get your dinner then?
34339How far on have you got?
34339How is it that I can then? 34339 How long will it take?"
34339How should I feed them, though?
34339I do n''t know what more.--What more is my name, Lootie?
34339I wonder, Lootie--that was her pet- name for her nurse--"what pigeons''eggs taste like?"
34339Is it because you have your crown on that you look so young?
34339Is it long since you came? 34339 Is it naughty of Lootie then?"
34339Is that what makes your hair so white?
34339Is this_ all_ your spinning, grandmother?
34339Might n''t I stay and sleep with you to- night, grandmother?
34339Nor the blue bed? 34339 Now,"insisted Irene,"you_ will_ come and see my grandmother-- won''t you?"
34339Nursie,said the princess,"why wo n''t you believe me?"
34339Please, Mrs. Housekeeper,said the princess,"will you take me to your room and keep me till my king- papa comes?
34339Please, am I to keep it?
34339Please, king- papa,she said,"will you tell me where I got this pretty ring?
34339Sha''n''t we, king- papa?
34339Shall I see if we can manage that?
34339That reminds me-- there is one thing that puzzles me,said the princess:"how are you to get the thread out of the mountain again?
34339Then how was it? 34339 Then if you do n''t know what I mean, what right have you to call it nonsense?"
34339Then what can be the matter with your finger? 34339 Then what_ do_ you see?"
34339Then why did n''t you come to me to wipe them for you?
34339Then you did n''t see the cobs?
34339Then you''ve come from my house, have you?
34339There!--don''t you see it shining on before us?
34339What am I to say when Lootie asks me where I got it?
34339What are you about here?
34339What are you laughing at, husband?
34339What are you thinking of, my love?
34339What can it be?
34339What can that noise be?
34339What did they want there? 34339 What did you have for breakfast this morning?"
34339What did you see?
34339What difference does that make?
34339What do they do to him?
34339What do you mean by that?
34339What does that matter?
34339What is that noise?
34339What is that, grandmother?
34339What is the stone called?
34339What made her die, then? 34339 What more?"
34339What shall he call me, then, Lootie?
34339What was that noise?
34339What were they?
34339What were you afraid of, nursie?
34339What''s all the haste, nursie?
34339What''s that horrible noise?
34339What''s that?
34339What''s the matter, Helfer?
34339What_ am_ I to do?
34339What_ do_ you mean?
34339What_ shall_ I do, grandmother?
34339When_ shall_ I wake?
34339Where are you going there?
34339Where do they get the feathers?
34339Where do you keep them?
34339Where is your crown then?
34339Where''s the princess?
34339Who do n''t like it?
34339Who gave me the ring, Lootie? 34339 Who is he that interrupts the Chancellor?"
34339Who''s Peter?
34339Who''s that laughing at me?
34339Why ca n''t you help it now?
34339Why did n''t you tell me then?
34339Why do n''t you put out your moon?
34339Why do they wear shoes up there?
34339Why do you call yourself old? 34339 Why do you think so?"
34339Why does n''t she want it now?
34339Why not?
34339Why were n''t you in your workroom, when we came up, grandmother?
34339Why, child?
34339Why, how ever did you come here, Irene?
34339Why, please?
34339Why, what do you mean?
34339Why, what else could he be?
34339Why, what have you been doing with your eyes, child?
34339Why, what''s the matter?
34339Why, who are you?
34339Will you be quiet then?
34339Will you give me an egg to eat? 34339 Without her shoes?"
34339Wo n''t you hold it to my frock and my hands and my face? 34339 Wo n''t you, Curdie?"
34339You are not coming, are you?
34339You confess, my boy,she said,"there is something about the whole affair you do not understand?"
34339You do n''t mean you''ve got the thread there?
34339You wo n''t be afraid then to go to bed with such an old woman?
34339You wo n''t come up and see my huge, great, beautiful grandmother, then, king- papa?
34339You''re not afraid of the rose-- are you?
34339You_ will_ let me take you to see my dear old great big grandmother, wo n''t you?
34339After the king had eaten and drunk, he turned to the princess and said, stroking her hair--"Now, my child, what shall we do next?"
34339And what am I to say to her when she asks me where I have been?"
34339And_ he_ was prowling about-- was he?
34339Are n''t you glad you have got him out?"
34339Are the eggs nice?"
34339Are you all smelling very sweet this morning?
34339Are you fifty?"
34339But how was she to find her way back?
34339But what could he do?
34339But why should I be there rather than in this beautiful room?"
34339CHAPTER IV WHAT THE NURSE THOUGHT OF IT"WHY, where can you have been, princess?"
34339Could his string have led him wrong?
34339Could it be that the thread was leading him home to his mother''s cottage?
34339Could it be the rain?
34339Could it be--?
34339Could it really be that an old lady lived up in the top of the house with pigeons and a spinning- wheel, and a lamp that never went out?
34339Could the princess be there?
34339Did n''t the air agree with her?"
34339Did you ever see a spindle or a spinning wheel?
34339Did you?
34339Do n''t you see that funny man peeping over the rock?"
34339Do you know the difference?
34339Do you see a slab laid up against the wall?"
34339Do you see that bath behind you?"
34339Does he, nursie?"
34339Does it not, Harelip?"
34339Finding no change on the other side--"Shall I ever get back?"
34339Had n''t you a handkerchief to wipe your eyes with?"
34339How much wiser will you be then?"
34339How was it?"
34339How_ could_ the king have fallen in love with her?"
34339I know I''ve had it a long time, but where did I get it?
34339I was sure my grandmother had been to see you.--Don''t you smell the roses?
34339Is this what you expected?"
34339It was your lamp I saw-- wasn''t it?"
34339It''s prettier than anything I ever saw, except those-- of all colors-- in your-- Please, is that your crown?"
34339Lootie, will you please to dress me?"
34339May n''t I call this my home?"
34339Nor the beautiful light, like the moon, hanging from the roof?"
34339Nor the rose- colored counterpane?
34339Now tell me where you have been?"
34339Or was it to- day, because it was so wet that I could n''t get out?"
34339Please will you take me back to her?"
34339Shall I carry your little Highness?"
34339Shall I go in first?"
34339Shall I take you in my arms?"
34339She did take you out, and she must have had something to guide her: why not a thread as well as a rope, or anything else?
34339Sir Walter, will you take charge of me?"
34339That is not much like an old lady-- is it?
34339That would n''t be comfortable-- would it?
34339The king looked grave, and said--"What does my little daughter mean?"
34339The king took her on his knee, and she said in his ear--"King- papa, do you hear that noise?"
34339The princess when he heard her voice almost close to his ear, whispering--"Are n''t you coming, Curdie?"
34339Then turning again to the lady--"What does it all mean, grandmother?"
34339Then turning to the miners, he said----"Will you do the best you can for my servants to- night?
34339Then what was it?
34339There was a good bunch of it on the distaff attached to the spinning- wheel, and in the moonlight it shone like-- what shall I say it was like?
34339They did n''t tease her to death, did they?"
34339Was it yesterday?
34339What am I to do with it, please?"
34339What am I to do with it?"
34339What are you doing?"
34339What can it be?"
34339What can you mean?"
34339What could it be?
34339What could it mean?
34339What could that light be?
34339What do you think she saw?
34339What has happened to you?
34339What have you found out?"
34339What more?"
34339What was then to be done?
34339What were they about?
34339What''s that?
34339What''s that?"
34339What''s the matter, my dear?"
34339What''s your name, please?"
34339What_ should_ she do if she lost her hold?
34339Where are their nests?"
34339Where could it come from?
34339Who are you?"
34339Who would turn you away?"
34339Why could n''t I find you before, great- great- grandmother?"
34339Why do we not destroy them entirely, and use their cattle and grazing lands at our pleasure?
34339Why should I tell one that every properly educated child knows already?
34339Why should I, when I know you will not believe me?"
34339Why should he marry an outlandish woman like that-- one of our natural enemies too?"
34339Why should she?
34339Will you all please to go away?
34339Will you malign your native realms and reduce them to a level with the country up- stairs?
34339Will your Majesty order that everybody leave the house as quickly as possible, and get up the mountain?"
34339Would n''t it be better to keep hens, and get bigger eggs?"
34339Would n''t you like to know who I am, child?"
34339Would you like to see my bedroom?"
34339Would you like to see them?"
34339You ca n''t get out, I suppose?"
34339You do believe me now, do n''t you?"
34339You know she''s here, do n''t you?"
34339You remember?"
34339You wo n''t mind sleeping with such a_ very_ young woman, grandmother?"
34339You''ll be sure to take care of yourself, wo n''t you?"
34339do you think I care more for my dress than for my little girl?
34339said her grandmother,"you wo n''t mind coming to me now?"
34339said, her grandmother,"what is the matter?"
34339she added, guiding Curdie''s hand to the thread,"you feel it yourself-- don''t you?"
34339she cried,"wo n''t you believe what I told you about my grandmother and her thread?"
34339where have you been?
34339why do you run so fast?
34339you do believe in my grandmother then?
36309About what?
36309Ai n''t I a pretty fellow now?
36309And do you see all those ashes, and slag, and cinders lying about?
36309And how got ye up there?
36309And now, my pretty little man,said Mother Carey,"you are sure you know the way to the Other- end- of- Nowhere?"
36309And of course Tom married Ellie?
36309And what good on earth will it do you if I did tell you?
36309And what is he to do, ma''am?
36309And what will become of your wife?
36309And where are they all now?
36309And where do they come from?
36309And where is the gate?
36309And who are you, you little darling?
36309And who are you?
36309And why are_ you_ so sick and sad?
36309And you have seen water- babies? 36309 And you will cuddle me again?"
36309Are you not ashamed of yourself, Thomas Grimes?
36309Blessings on your heart, and what makes you look so sad the morn?
36309But ca n''t I help you in any other way? 36309 But could you not have saved them from becoming apes?"
36309But how can I do that?
36309But surely if there were water- babies, somebody would have caught one at least?
36309But what am I to do, ma''am? 36309 But why are there not water- babies?"
36309But why do n''t you stop, and let them come up to you?
36309But why do n''t you turn round and tell them so?
36309But why do you run after all these poor people?
36309But, please, which is the way to Shiny Wall?
36309Children in the water, you strange little duck?
36309Come along,said Tom;"do n''t you see she is dead?"
36309Did she keep the school in Vendale?
36309Do n''t care?
36309Do you see that great peaked mountain there behind,said the fairy,"with smoke coming out of its top?"
36309Down to the sea?
36309Grimes?
36309Have I, ma''am? 36309 How does she do that?"
36309How was that, ma''am?
36309I ca n''t,said Tom, and he laid his head on his knees, and then asked--"Is it Sunday?"
36309I should be glad enough to go,said Tom,"but how am I to get up that great hole again, now the steam has stopped blowing?"
36309I suppose,said Tom,"she cuts up a great whale like you into a whole shoal of porpoises?"
36309Many a hundred years?
36309Never saw me? 36309 No gate?"
36309No, then; why should it be?
36309Not frightened? 36309 Now, then,"said the Powwow man to Tom,"would n''t you like to be frightened, my little dear?
36309Now,said the fairy to Tom,"will you be a good boy for my sake, and torment no more sea- beasts till I come back?"
36309Oh, Harthover, Harthover,says she,"ye were always a just man and a merciful; and ye''ll no harm the poor little lad if I give you tidings of him?"
36309Oh, why did you not warn them?
36309Over Harthover? 36309 She was very much diseased, I suppose?"
36309Shiny Wall? 36309 Shiny Wall?
36309So there are babies in the sea?
36309So you ca n''t feel frightened, my little dear-- eh? 36309 So you have seen things like me before?"
36309Then I shall have some one to play with there? 36309 Then why do n''t you get out through it?"
36309Then why have you a thong to your handle?
36309Then you will take away all these nasty prickles?
36309Thou come along,said Grimes;"what dost want with washing thyself?
36309Turn into a baby, eh? 36309 Want what?"
36309Water? 36309 Well, dame, and how are you?"
36309Well,he said, at last,"I am so miserable here, I''ll go; if only you will go with me?"
36309Were there no babies up this stream?
36309What am I to do, then?
36309What are bees?
36309What are men?
36309What are salmon?
36309What are you crying for?
36309What art thou, and what dost want?
36309What case is this?
36309What do you know about Vendale?
36309What do you see, my darling?
36309What do you want here,it cried quite peevishly,"getting in my way?"
36309What do you want here?
36309What do you want, my little man? 36309 What hail?"
36309What is honey?
36309What shall I help you at?
36309What, have you been naughty, and have they put you in the lock- up?
36309Where did you get in?
36309Where didst come from?
36309Where do you come from?
36309Where have you been?
36309Who are you, you jolly birds?
36309Who told you that?
36309Why did you get in?
36309Why do n''t you bring all the bad masters here and serve them out too? 36309 Why do n''t you come too?"
36309Why do you dislike the trout so?
36309Why do you want that?
36309Why do you want to split?
36309Why have you no policeman to carry you?
36309Why should I?
36309Why, did Ellie do that?
36309Why?
36309Will you obey me if I give you a chance?
36309You do?
36309You think so?
36309A water- baby?
36309Am I in earnest?
36309And Grimes listened, and said every now and then, under his voice,"You''ll mind that, you little beggar?"
36309And I was afraid of you, Tom, at first, because-- because----""Because I was all over prickles?
36309And Tom cried,"Oh, Ellie, where are you?"
36309And Tom?
36309And as for water, who can find that on the top of a limestone rock?
36309And do we not now know that there are hundreds of them found fossil up and down the world?
36309And he remembered that his ancestors had once been men, and tried to say,"Am I not a man and a brother?"
36309And he slapped his great hand upon his great thigh, and said--"Who will go down over Lewthwaite Crag, and see if that boy is alive?
36309And he thought of nothing but lollipops by day, and dreamt of nothing else by night-- and what happened then?
36309And if a water animal can continually change into a land animal, why should not a land animal sometimes change into a water animal?
36309And so it was; for, from the top of the mountain he could see-- what could he not see?
36309And the poor little dog?
36309And the sea- snails answered,"Whence we come we know not; and whither we are going, who can tell?
36309And then he thought,"And are all people like that when they are washed?"
36309And thou hast not been stealing, then?"
36309And what did he live on?
36309And what did the little girl teach Tom?
36309And what do you think he was doing?
36309And what story did she tell them?
36309And what was the song which she sang?
36309And where is the home of the water- babies?
36309And you actually do n''t run away, like all the rest?"
36309And, if you do n''t quite believe me, then just think-- What is more cheap and plentiful than sea- rock?
36309Are you never going to look at me again?"
36309Art sure thou art not lying?"
36309At last Tom said,"Oh, where have you been all this while?
36309But I am not prickly now, am I, Miss Ellie?"
36309But may not I help poor Mr. Grimes?
36309But what did the strange fairy do when she saw all her lollipops eaten?
36309But what was the beautiful place like, and where was it?
36309But why should the lady have such a sad picture as that in her room?
36309But why was it there?
36309Ca n''t I help you to get out of this chimney?"
36309Can you fly?"
36309Did I ask to be brought here into the prison?
36309Did I ask to be set to sweep your foul chimneys?
36309Did I ask to have lighted straw put under me to make me go up?
36309Did I ask to stick fast in the very first chimney of all, because it was so shamefully clogged up with soot?
36309Did she question him, hurry him, frighten him, threaten him, to make him confess?
36309Do n''t you know that no one ever marries in a fairy tale, under the rank of a prince or a princess?
36309Do n''t you know that this is a fairy tale, and all fun and pretence; and that you are not to believe one word of it, even if it is true?
36309Do not even you know that a green drake, and an alder- fly, and a dragon- fly, live under water till they change their skins, just as Tom changed his?
36309Do you want Shiny Wall?
36309For why?
36309For why?
36309For, if he wanted to go into a narrow crack ten yards off, what do you think he did?
36309Grimes?"
36309Had she hidden away?
36309Have you been there to see?
36309Have you seen any near here?"
36309How do you know that somebody has not?
36309How do you know that?
36309How should you like to have any one breaking your bedroom- door in, to see how you looked when you were in bed?
36309How was it you did not see us, or hear us when we sing and romp every evening before we go home?"
36309I say, can you fly?"
36309I suppose you have come here to laugh at me, you spiteful little atomy?"
36309It''s a very business- like suit, you think, do n''t you?"
36309May n''t I try and get some of these bricks away, that he may move his arms?"
36309My dear child, who can tell?
36309Now was not he a clever little fellow?
36309Now, was not that strange?
36309Now, was not that very odd?
36309Now, was not this a scandalous transaction?
36309She gave a little shriek and start; and then she said, quite quietly,"Babies in the sea?
36309So what shall it be?"
36309So why should he, when he became a water- baby?
36309Some people may say, But why did she not keep her cupboard locked?
36309Then have you lived before?
36309Then why should there not be sea- toffee as well?
36309There are land- babies-- then why not water- babies?
36309There must be fairies; for this is a fairy tale: and how can one have a fairy tale if there are no fairies?
36309They looked-- and both of them cried out at once,"Oh, who are you, after all?"
36309Tom came up to her very humbly, and made his bow; and the first thing she said was--"Have you wings?
36309Tom could hear, though, that it was about some poaching fight; and at last Grimes said surlily,"Hast thou anything against me?"
36309Tom thought him a very cool sort of personage; and still more so, when, in five minutes, he came back, and said--"Ah, you were tired waiting?
36309Well-- but-- what was I saying?
36309Were they not a foolish couple?
36309What can they want with flying, and raising themselves above their proper station in life?
36309What could Tom do now but go away and hide in a corner and cry?
36309What did such a little black ape want in that sweet young lady''s room?
36309What is gold?"
36309What was he to do?
36309What would Tom have said if he had seen, walking over the moor behind him, the very same Irishwoman who had taken his part upon the road?
36309Who ever heard the like, if God had n''t led him?
36309Who said to you, Those that will be foul, foul they will be?"
36309Who sent you here to worry us out of our lives?_"So Tom swam away.
36309Who should know better than I?
36309Who was frightened then but Tom?
36309Why dost not eat thy bread?"
36309Why not?
36309Why should he be?
36309Why should n''t one be jolly if one can?"
36309Why then did Solomon say that he would not depart from it?"
36309Will ye up, lass, and ride behind me?"
36309You do not know what that means?
36309You thought me very ugly just now, did you not?"
36309[ Illustration] Did not learned men, too, hold, till within the last twenty- five years, that a flying dragon was an impossible monster?
36309[ Illustration]"So you live under the water?
36309[ Illustration]"Was it long ago since they wound you up?"
36309[ Illustration][ Illustration] CHAPTER V BUT what became of little Tom?
36309and down Lewthwaite Crag?
36309and have you seen the water- babies?"
36309do n''t you wish that some one would go and convert those poor heathens, and teach them not to frighten their little children into fits?
36309where are you?"
36309who are you?
5676And it was you all the time?
5676And what did you do with the clothes you took off her? 5676 But where are the flowers?"
5676But where is the wise woman?
5676But which is the real you?
5676Can not you rise, and walk down the hill, and through the wood?
5676Can there be such a city in the world?
5676Could n''t you help me?
5676Did my pony hurt you?
5676Did you never see me before, Rosamond?
5676Has she more than two? 5676 Have n''t we given her every mortal thing she wanted?"
5676Have you got any in your lap? 5676 How can you tell that?"
5676How could you love such an ugly, ill- tempered, rude, hateful little wretch?
5676How did that ragged girl get in here? 5676 How is it that you make them grow?"
5676How should I know? 5676 I humbly beg your Majesty''s pardon,"said the soldier,"but what was I to do?
5676Is that something terrible?
5676Is there a picture of her anywhere in the palace?
5676MAY I try again?
5676Madam,said the shepherd,"may I not go with you now?"
5676My pet of pets?
5676Need I say any thing?
5676Or a thousand others?
5676Please your Majesty, what am I to do with her?
5676Surely,said the wise woman:"what else could have all but killed her?
5676Treated her badly?
5676WHAT princess?
5676Was that woman his mistress?
5676Was the lost princess so very beautiful?
5676What do you want?
5676What is the meaning of this?
5676What was she like?
5676Where are you hurt, child?
5676Where do you get them?
5676Where is Prince?
5676Where is my Ally?
5676Where''s your mother?
5676Who accuses me of crime?
5676Who can she be?
5676Why did n''t she take me with her?
5676Why did you not bring her at once to the palace,pursued the king,"whether you knew her to be a princess or not?
5676Why does she say her TWO arms?
5676Would you like to ride my pony?
5676You do n''t mind it, then?
5676You do n''t mind me having such a pony?
5676You know now the kind of thing you have to meet: are you ready to try again?
5676You will tell me what it is before it begins?
5676--there( would you believe it?)
5676And the little girl said,"Who are you?"
5676And what was Agnes doing all the time the wise woman was talking to her?
5676And who could tell but some of them might break from their covert and sweep like a shadow across the heath?
5676And yet( would you believe it?)
5676Are they not written in letters of gold upon the brazen gates of this palace?"
5676But the queen cried out,--"Get away, you great rude child!--Will nobody take her to the rack?"
5676Could any but a low creature be conceited of not being contemptible?
5676Did she not tell you the beasts would not touch you?"
5676Does Mistress Ogress fancy a princess will bear that?"
5676FREE was she, with that creature inside her?
5676For a moment she feared the old woman would be offended, but the next, there came a voice, saying,"Who is there?"
5676Have you forgotten how you kissed me this morning?"
5676He knew she was not one of his; but where could she come from, and where could she go to?
5676How could there be a universe in that case?
5676How did you become so sweet?"
5676If I had not loved you, do you think I would have carried you away in my cloak?"
5676Is there another?"
5676Is there treason in that?"
5676On the contrary, she thought she had a perfect right to be angry, for was she not most desperately ill used-- and a princess too?
5676Sell them?"
5676She might call and shout, But no one about Would ever call back,"Who''s there?"
5676She turned to the wise woman and said:"Will you forgive ALL my naughtiness, and ALL the trouble I have given you?"
5676Strange, was it not, that she should have been so long with the wise woman, and yet know NOTHING about that cottage?
5676The ugly creature whose presence had made her so miserable had indeed crept out of sight and mind too-- but where was she?
5676Then Agnes said,"Who are you?"
5676Then her mind collapsed to the thought-- had the pony grown too?
5676Then in her terror the princess grew angry, and saying to herself,"She must be somewhere in the place, else who was there to open the door to me?"
5676Then the princess knocked again, this time with her knuckles, and the voice came again, saying,"Who is there?"
5676Was he looking for her?
5676What could he be after?
5676What could it mean?
5676What could it mean?
5676What could the old woman have meant by telling her not to leave the cottage?
5676What else could there be?
5676What honest boy would pride himself on not picking pockets?
5676What is there to choose between a face distorted to hideousness by anger, and one distorted to silliness by self- complacency?
5676What is to be done?"
5676What would Prince think of her, if he knew?
5676Would you like a ride upon him?"
5676and again,-- She might call and shout, And no one about Would ever call back,"Who''s there?"
5676asked Rosamond;"this or that?"
5676cried the shepherdess,"how are we two to get home without you?"
5676have I a scullery- maid in my house born of such parents?
5676mind it?"
48469A race?
48469And are you afraid now?
48469And is not that light enough?
48469And that dark cloud?
48469Brother,he said,"can not you restore her to life?
48469But is there nothing you dread, here-- nothing that would hurt you if you took too much of it? 48469 But what shall we do with the body?"
48469Can you not,said Grasshopper, noticing that they waited for him to speak first,"turn me into a beaver?
48469Do you think you can overtake it?
48469Esa,he replied,"what will I do with a dirty dogskin?"
48469How can you think of eating at such a time?
48469How shall I answer to his friends for Wassamo?
48469How,the sister asked again,"could you have got it there?"
48469Manabozho,he said,"this is the only thing we eat; what else can we give you?"
48469Must I then go back without any blood upon my hands?
48469My friend,said Grasshopper in his most persuasive manner,"could you not oblige me by turning me into a beaver like yourself?
48469My friend,said Monedowa,"is this all your speed?"
48469No, no,retorted Manabozho,"why should I want to look at you?"
48469No,replied Manabozho;"what will I do with a dirty dog''s tooth?"
48469Now you will not tell any one, Manabozho, that the black stone is bad medicine for your father, will you?
48469Oh, where is my cousin?
48469Old Sand- Spirit, where are you? 48469 Stand off, will you?"
48469Strike you?
48469There,exerting their power,"are you big enough?"
48469Well,said he quietly, after he had got by,"how do you like my movement?"
48469Well,said the old wolf, by way of opening discourse,"who do you think is the fastest of the boys?
48469What aileth thee, sad bird?
48469What are you looking for?
48469What brings you here?
48469What can I give you?
48469What do you mean, you Owl?
48469What do you want?
48469What have you come for?
48469What is that?
48469What light is that yonder?
48469What shall I do?
48469What shall I do?
48469What shall I say to the monster?
48469Where are you now, little man?
48469Where are you now, little man?
48469Where did you get these,asked the Manito,"and who brought them?"
48469Where is your grandfather?
48469Where is your uncle?
48469Whither do you journey?
48469Who are you,said Grasshopper,"to treat me so?
48469Who is more worthy to rule than you?
48469Why, my son,he said,"you must play very hard every day; and what is it that you do, all alone, to throw the lodge in such confusion?"
48469Why,replied the Mudjee Monedo, trembling in every limb as he spoke,"do n''t you see how old I look, while you are young and full of life?
48469Why,said he, when he came to a little and was able to sit up,"why did you strike me so?"
48469Will the kettle now withdraw?
48469Yes, my son; and added, addressing the woman,"Have you anything to eat?"
48469You mean the two young women who lived in the flying lodge?
48469After regarding him with attention, he said:"Who are you, little man?
48469After some time, the woodpecker, who was a magician, said to his wife:"Have you nothing to give Manabozho?
48469Am not I your friend-- your guardian spirit?"
48469And now Jeekewis, hearing a wife spoken of, roused from his torpor and sprang to his feet, crying loudly:"Why, did you come just now?"
48469And tell me, was all this great broad earth and this huge big sky made for a little boy and girl like you and me?"
48469And when he came in she asked him,"Did you see anything?"
48469Are there no beings on this earth but myself?
48469As he passed the wolf he whispered in his ear:"My friend, is this the extent of your speed?"
48469As they went, he reflected in this manner:"What will become of me?
48469At the head?
48469Ca n''t you change my friend hack, Manabozho?"
48469Can you tell by the jumps they take?"
48469Could he not make it easier for us to get our food than by hunting animals and taking fish?
48469Do you eat nothing else with your raccoon?
48469Do you know whether any of it is left?"
48469Do you not know that we are to forgive our enemies?
48469Do you not wish to wrestle?"
48469Do you think we can so soon forget your brotherly care, which has equalled a father''s, and even a mother''s kindness?
48469Have we no right to a little lake of our own?
48469He could not help saying to himself:"What manner of boy is this who is ever escaping from my power?
48469He cried out:"Tyau, why do you strike me, you old dog?"
48469He jumped up, looked grimly at Maidwa, and said:"Who is he that he should take her for a few presents?
48469He thought to himself,"What shall I do to get these lads to accompany me?
48469He thought to himself:"How came I here?
48469I always admired your family; are you willing to change me into a wolf?"
48469In a moment a second face, just like the first, presented itself; and as he raised his bow, his sister said to him:"What is the use?
48469Is it not plain by this mark on the stalk that he was heavily bent in his hack?
48469Is that all you eat?
48469Is there nobody else living?
48469It seemed to say to him:"Great chief, why are you sorrowful?
48469Jeekewis, the second, was loud in disapproval of the scheme, saying:"What will you do with those you propose to get?
48469Maidwa, seeing that no preparation had been made to entertain the company, said,"Are we to have no supper?"
48469Manabozho jumped up and called out:"You dog, now that your stomach is full, do you think I am going to eat you to get at my dinner?
48469May I break my fast now, and at a more favorable time make a new fast?"
48469Must I deprive myself of the pleasure of mingling with my own kind?
48469Now tell me, my darling boy, is there not something that you do n''t like?"
48469One day he addressed his sister as follows:"My sister, are we always to live as if there were no other human beings in the world?
48469One of this very sort was in the lodge, and now this pretender jumped up in a passion and cried out:"Who is this stranger, that he should have her?
48469One spoke in a tone of command, saying:"Foolish ones, is this the way that you rove about at nights without our knowledge?
48469See you not signs that he crouched as he crept in the dark?
48469Shall not your aged father live to see you a star among the chieftains and the beloved of battle?"
48469Shall we grant their requests?
48469She at length said:"Manabozho, what is the matter with you?
48469She exclaimed,"Where could you have got it?
48469She was angry with them, and called out:"Why do you thus insult the pomatum of your brother?"
48469She went out of the lodge, saying to herself,"Was there ever so obstinate a boy?"
48469Strange thoughts came over the mind of the hunter; did his wife live again in this beautiful child?
48469The boy went, and the magician no sooner saw him with the fish in his hand, than he asked him,"What are you eating?
48469The boy- man said,"Why do you mind them?
48469The great fish said to the boy- man under water:"What is that floating?"
48469The son moaned, and the father added:"Will you bring shame upon your father when he is is falling in the west?"
48469The young wolves were in the act of running off, when Manabozho cried out:"My grandchildren, where are you going?
48469Then it added,"Have you no more dreams of another kind?"
48469Then,"Will_ that_ do?"
48469Turning his canoe as if about to go back, he suddenly cried out with a loud and terrified voice:"What is that behind you?"
48469What do you want?"
48469What more of earthly blessing was there for them to enjoy?
48469When Manabozho reached the spot, the tree addressed him:"Great chief,"said the tree,"will you give me my life again?
48469Whence have you come, oh, my cousin?"
48469Who brought it?"
48469Who do you think would come and trouble themselves about me?"
48469Who will shelter you from calamity?
48469Will you be mine?"
48469Will you not restore me to life?"
48469Will you then go and see if you can not recover my poor scalp?"
48469could you oblige me by making my tail just a little longer and more bushy, please?"
48469he cried out;"what would you come to get here?"
48469he cried,"is it indeed you?
48469is it time for me to come home?"
48469it is you, is it?
48469my cousin, wither are you gone?"
48469whither are you gone?"
48469who is there?"
48469who is there?"
52402''Tis the son of my old friend, Guy of Lamont, sayest thou?
52402Am I wise, little one?
52402And any special ones?
52402And are you not glad?
52402And what may that be?
52402And what must he be?
52402And what?
52402And whom can we trust to aid in the work?
52402Are you angry?
52402Are you hurt?
52402Are you quite sure that the beast is dead?
52402But what was it all about?
52402But who will take charge of this undertaking and plan me the work that it may avail?
52402Clementine,asked My Lord Rector, changing the subject,"shall you ever we d?"
52402Did that-- Beast do it?
52402Do n''t you understand?
52402Do you like to work?
52402Dost come before my throne with slanderous tales of one on whom I lean heavily and lovingly?
52402Dost know the trick, Blanche?
52402Dost love me?
52402Find out what, your Highness?
52402Hath he undertaken to sell his wares here?
52402Have I found favor in your eyes, O beloved of my heart?
52402How can I bear it?
52402How could I presume to tell?
52402How do I know? 52402 How long beloved?"
52402How?
52402I wonder,said the Knight meditatively,"if you brought away his head or a claw?"
52402Indeed?
52402Is danger therein?
52402Is it a man, or a lady, or a place?
52402Is it a thing that a young girl ought to know about?
52402Is it not a noble prince and a fair offer?
52402Is the pretty lady looking for the pretty knight that passed this way yestere''en?
52402It was in that direction that she went, did you say?
52402Its supplies of orphans?
52402Lovely lady,he said feebly,"do n''t you think you ought to wait until I am better?"
52402May I ask why I was not invited?
52402Nor my wanting to go on a quest, and do all those unfeminine things?
52402Nor the device on my shield?
52402Now, by what right?
52402Now, was this planned among you?
52402Now, why?
52402Shall you grieve for anything left behind?
52402Should not stripes be laid upon him for each cry he hath drawn forth? 52402 Tell me truly,"said the Princess,"do n''t you mind my climbing trees and doing all those things?"
52402The question is not,''Shall I take thy purse?''
52402Then why?
52402To comfort me for not being a boy?
52402Well, daughter,said the old merchant, as the two came in,"what saith the prophet to- day?"
52402Wh- what put this idea into your heads?
52402What bringest hither?
52402What do they mean by telling us about them all the time?
52402What do you mean?
52402What do you want to study for?
52402What does it do?
52402What does it look like?
52402What have I done?
52402What is it, my son?
52402What say you, my daughter?
52402What''s the Microbe?
52402When did you kill him?
52402When have you noticed that?
52402When were you hurt?
52402Where are you going?
52402Who eats the youths and the maidens, and the old men and the children?
52402Who else? 52402 Why blue jean for one man''s arm and velvet with pearls for another?"
52402Why did n''t you?
52402Why did you do that?
52402Why do you wear a workingman''s blouse and carve in stone?
52402Why does n''t somebody go and kill it?
52402Why hunger for that man, and for me surfeit?
52402Why was she made at all, if she were as naughty as people said? 52402 Why were the others so unjust?"
52402Why, when?
52402Why, why should you choose me?
52402Why,she asked his Majesty, her father, who also was afraid of her,"did he say that he loved his neighbor and yet make war?
52402Why,she asked, when she was very small,"did trees grow this way, instead of the other end up?
52402Why?
52402Wilt come with me to the market- place this afternoon?
52402Wilt have me?
52402Wo n''t you try to make me understand?
52402Your Majesty,she asked,"why are people who do not know anything called wise men and philosophers?"
52402*****"Why did you do it?"
52402Amas?_"but Clementine did not understand a word of Latin.
52402Did she catch the sound of swift retreat of a hundred thousand wounded legs?
52402Do you mind explaining how you came to be hurt in the back?"
52402Does that fact cause rejoicing?"
52402Dost see yonder great cathedral rising?"
52402Dost thou think thou couldst manage it?"
52402How do I know?"
52402I do not want the purse,"said the young man scornfully;"but how canst thou traffic in crime?"
52402Should he not lay down his life, if that were possible, for each life he hath taken?"
52402The crown waits.... What matter if the victor be sobbing and breathless, so that he be conqueror?"
52402The dull- paneled room was as the breaking of a rainbow; yet all he had said was,"Wilt not we d me, Blanche?"
52402The question is,''How shall I dispose of it to the best advantage?''"
52402Then, was it fancy, or did she hear a roar as of mortal pain?
52402Was it because he was wiser and better than other people?"
52402Was it not enough for him to have had a daughter whose useless thinking had embittered his reign?
52402What can one do when it is all so unfair?"
52402What is the question I must answer?"
52402Who was going to bury the last man?"
52402Why did people stand on their feet instead of on their heads?
52402Why did you like some people better than others, and why could n''t it be just as easy to like them all alike?"
52402Why should she?
52402Why was he king?
52402Why were you there?"
52402Why were you you, and I I?
52402Wilt lead us to him?"
52402Would he be Olivero Rinaldo Victor the Twenty- fourth, she wondered?
52402Would n''t it have been less trouble not to have made her, or to have made her good?
52402[ Illustration:"IT''S GOT TO BE KILLED,"SAID THE PRINCESS STURDILY]"But what is it?"
52402and the maiden''s laughter rang out like the touch of silver bells,"and of what?"
52402said the Knight, looking at it with sudden interest,"may I see your point?"
52402they cried out,"we go hungry for this man, but who shall deliver us from him?
45907''Am I awake?''
45907''Am I awake?''
45907''But even in the light, dear mother, you think it is changing-- just a little?''
45907''But-- but,''cried_ Cinderella_, who saw by now that she was bound for the ball,''how can I go like this?
45907''Could the like happen to us?''
45907''Dost thou desire these doves, O my master?
45907''Is it that I forgot your oath through pleasure at seeing you once more?
45907''Is this real?
45907''Knowest thou that my name is also_ Sindbad_?''
45907''My lord Putiphra,''he said, when he had refreshed himself,''pray tell me, who is that woman I saw looking from the window of the tower?
45907''Never have I. Hast thou, Ashtar?''
45907''O Prince of the Faithful,''said the slave- girl,''hast thou indeed dreamed that thou wert other than the Lord of all Creatures?
45907''O my lord, who art thou?''
45907''O my son,''said she, stroking his hair,''was it not always so?
45907''Or do I dream that I am awake?''
45907''Raised by galloping horses?''
45907''The dearest wish of my heart?''
45907''The key of the room at the end of the corridor,''he said grimly,''it is not here: where is it?''
45907''Then let us leave all, and fly to the wilderness--''''Now?''
45907''Then you think----''''Think?
45907''Then,''said she, her imploring eyes brimming with tears,''you will give me a little time to prepare?
45907''Well, child?''
45907''What ails thee, my son?''
45907''What does this mean?''
45907''What hast thou then suffered at my hands?''
45907''What have ye done?''
45907''What is your name?''
45907''What wouldst thou, then, Noufal?''
45907''Where are they?''
45907''Who art thou?''
45907''Why pumpkins?
45907''Wilt thou deign to rise?''
45907''Woe to me that I have spoken evil words concerning him; whither shall I go to escape from my sorrow?
45907''Would they come, thinkest thou, to_ thy_ hand?''
45907''Yea, O my adored mistress, but was he not liberated by Pharaoh?''
45907''_ Cinderella_,''said she,''would n''t you like to be going to the ball?''
45907''_ Jusef_, the prime ruler,''said Ashtar,''he will come here?
45907''_ They_ say, girl?
45907''_ Will_ you come down?''
45907Always?
45907Am I Abu Hasan dreaming I am the caliph, or am I in truth the caliph who heretofore dreamed he was Abu Hasan?''
45907And the caliph wondered concerning his host: what manner of man was he to entertain so royally?
45907And what have I done to deserve a life so wretched?''
45907And-- what is this?
45907But how comes it that he failed of his pilgrimage to Mecca, whither I was following to join him at the holy shrine?''
45907But how was it to be found?
45907But still, why not?''
45907But what was that in the distance of the desert?
45907But where is the other one?''
45907Can such things be?
45907Can you not spare something towards this work of mercy and healing among our most gallant Allies?
45907Could it be true?
45907Do n''t you remember, I brought them with me?
45907Do ye comprehend this?''
45907Do you see any one coming?''
45907Have you any pumpkins in the garden?''
45907How came this blood upon the key?''
45907How can I ever repay you?''
45907How dare you answer the bell with such hands?
45907If I sent a messenger, how would_ he_ be met?
45907If he was one day Abu Hasan and another day the caliph, who was he when he was at home?
45907Is it thou?
45907It has come to me, Ashtar; canst thou not see it?''
45907Now I do n''t suppose, by any chance, you''ve got a----''''A rat?''
45907Oh, must I freeze while thou art toasting?
45907Once she had given all for duty''s sake: should she take it back now, and in this way?
45907Others were sweet and loving as they murmured,''Do you remember?''

45907Press your thumbs on your eyes and what do you see?
45907Seamstress, what do I owe to you?
45907Shall not my suffering be consoled?
45907Should she go to the fountain where lovers meet beneath the moon?
45907Some were hideous as they hissed,''Do you remember?''
45907The Apothecary, he had some too,-- Seamstress, what do I owe to you?
45907Then to_ Anne_:''Sister_ Anne_, can you see anybody coming?''
45907There at the head is my father, and-- who is that beside him?
45907This_ Jusef_ is a mere man like other men; was he not the son of a shepherd?
45907Thou art poor: where is their friendship?
45907Thou hast my son in thy keeping?
45907Was he deprived of the power of speech?
45907Was he not a runaway?
45907Was he not cast by his master, and for some good reason, into a dungeon?''
45907Was he not sold as a slave?
45907Was it because he was, as the singers sang, as beautiful as a god and possessed the spirit of a god?
45907Were those the bodies of_ Blue Beard''s_ wives, who had disappeared, one after another, so mysteriously?
45907What hath he done to obtain from thee a lot so agreeable?
45907What is it to be?
45907What is it to be?
45907What is life to thee now?
45907What is this?
45907What prank was this that he should dream he was awake and in his own home?
45907What strange thing was this?
45907What was that, thrust forward from the desert?
45907What would it mean?
45907What wouldst thou?''
45907Where are you all?''
45907Where is it?''
45907Where was he who had stolen her dove and returned it with a message?
45907Where were his attendants?
45907Where-- where is she?
45907Whither has it flown?
45907Who but a fool would ever think such thoughts or speak such words?''
45907Who can have taken it?''
45907Who can have----?''
45907Who is this standing over her?
45907Who knows if it was but a moment or a thousand years?
45907Who say?''
45907Whose bodies were those hanging in the forbidden cupboard?
45907Why had this_ Jusef''s_ interpretation of dreams raised him to the king''s favour while that of the old Egyptian women had been unheeded?
45907Why have I not been informed of this marvel?''
45907Yes, I will come very often-- but-- but will you promise me one thing?''
45907[ Illustration: KNOWEST THOU MY NAME IS ALSO SINDBAD?
45907[ Illustration: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUNG ROUSSELLE?
45907exclaimed Abu Hasan, beating his breast,''what affair is this?
45907how should I be met?
45907say you, Ashtar, that this is the second to Pharaoh?''
45907sayest thou that she to whom I sent thee with the talisman is more perfect than any among mortals?''
45907she cried,''what shame has come upon me?
45907where are my brothers?
45907wilt thou punish me before I have recommended myself to Heaven?
40950Ah, but, Mother Zorka, tell me, will she ever look at me with eyes that see?
40950And now,asked the youth,"where art thou going?
40950And thy dream-- didst thou find thy dream?
40950But am I not taking thy daily bread from thee?
40950But tell me,cried the youth,"will I find at the end that for which I am seeking, which I am wandering after all the world over?"
40950But thou must tell me now what is that sunny country I saw beneath me when I was yonder, so near the skies? 40950 But was she happy?"
40950But was she happy?
40950But who is she?
40950Can one kill with a kiss?
40950Dear one that I love,answered sadly the old nomad,"for what hast thou climbed so high if thou now wilt not look up?
40950Dear young one,she said,"what can I do for thee?
40950For me what shall they be called, my father?
40950I shall think of thee when I am far; for didst thou not tend me with loving care? 40950 It seems to me,"he said,"that there are many faces on this earth; and why must thou journey so far looking for what is so easy to find?
40950Life, what is Life?
40950Mother Zorka, willst thou tend him and give him a bed? 40950 Oh, why has the marvellous woman a crown of thorns upon her head?
40950Tell me, O wise man,cried the youth,"what mountains are these, and why did I feel that I must try to ascend them?"
40950Tell me, hast thou really climbed over this barrier of mountains; and how is it thou didst not perish on the way?
40950Tell me,he continued,"why did she die?"
40950Was she an angel?
40950Well,asked the hermit,"what sayest thou to my sumptuous apartment?"
40950What is it? 40950 What is it?"
40950What is it?... 40950 Where?"
40950Who are they?
40950Why did she die?
40950Why was he left alone? 40950 Am I not here for all those who call at my door? 40950 And were their robes of snowy white? 40950 And what did they want of him? 40950 And wish all the mysteries to be revealed at once? 40950 And yet-- and yet-- can ever Fate be turned from the path upon which she glides? 40950 As if guessing his thoughts she spoke in a clear, soft voice, always keeping her eyes fixed on his,Thou wouldst know who I am, O lonely wanderer?
40950At the same time he almost dreaded to find the face of his dreams behind that white cloth which had become uncanny to him... and yet?...
40950But does death ever mercifully cover with his wings two living hearts at once?
40950But had he not always allowed Fate to shape events as she would?
40950But now he must escape-- but why was the moon so bright?
40950But what was that?
40950But what was this waking joy-- this tumultuous tide of intensest bliss?
40950But what was this?
40950But what were those white arms beckoning to him out of the morning mist?
40950But why had he so clearly felt his vision''s sweet presence?
40950But, my boy, wilt thou do as I bid, and create with thy hands the face thou lovest so well?"
40950Canst grasp that frightful truth?...
40950Canst thou not tell me whose they are?"
40950Certainly those were the features of the boy he had loved, but oh, what was it he had gone through to be so cruelly changed?
40950Didst thou not feed me when I was famished and tired?
40950Didst thou not save me when I knew I could move no farther?
40950Do the gods not love him?"
40950Does he not always leave the one in cold misery to carry his despair alone?
40950Eric had been accustomed to live in plenty; had he not been the favourite of a king?
40950Eric walked quickly; new hope had risen in his heart, his body felt rested, his spirit eager; he wondered if this would be the land of his dreams?
40950Had it really been given to him to be their salvation?
40950Had not the hermit believed in his courage?
40950Had really a miracle come to pass?
40950Had they found eternal peace and joy because he had not fallen on the way?
40950Had they lain in waiting till he had fought himself through that dangerous trial?
40950Had they trembled and feared that he was to be overthrown and their forlorn hope destroyed?
40950He loved the lonely wee maid, but a frightful apprehension was pressing at his heart-- would he be strong enough to save them both?
40950How can I bear such torture?"
40950How would they find their way out?
40950If I get thee brush and colour wilt thou try and create that face for a second time?
40950It soundeth sweet to the ear; dost thou think that thou shalt find it at the end of the way?"
40950It was Eric who spoke:"May I remain within thy palace, O King, to complete the work that once I began?
40950Must all hearts be killed?
40950Must not one and all drink from the cup which has been fashioned for each separate lip?
40950Oh what-- oh what does it mean?"
40950Oh, why-- oh, why had he been unable to save her treasured life?
40950On-- on... but was the child of lead?
40950Only one fact his mind refused to grasp: how could such a man be a sinner?
40950Or wilt thou remain with me?
40950Past-- past-- all past; but forgotten?
40950Should he turn back?
40950Should she tell the enamoured youth to go his way, not to waste his days running after something that could never be?
40950Suddenly little Oona was afraid, and drew back; what had come to her friend?
40950Tell me, I pray, didst thou verily come from the other side?"
40950Tell me, if thou canst, who are these silent ones that dog my steps, and make these mountains horrible to me?
40950The one who spoke first was Radu, and it was anxiously to ask:"Where hast thou left thy cloak?
40950Thou art quite wet; and thy sword, thy beautiful sword, where hast thou left thy sword?"
40950Thou who art so wise?"
40950To what regions have I come?
40950Was ever sleeper so still, was ever living face so pale, lips so blanched?
40950Was he dreaming?
40950Was he not like a hunted animal with this procession of ghosts so remorselessly tracking him?
40950Was he not to be of those who win?
40950Was it indeed a gift from the northern King?
40950Was it luring him on to life or to death?
40950Was it mocking him in his mortal distress?
40950Was sorrow everywhere?
40950Was this for ever the way of the weary earth?
40950Was this his spirit that had left his earthly body?
40950Were all victories so sad?
40950Were they apparitions out of some fantastic dream, some hallucination of his tired brain?
40950Were they indeed so fair?
40950Were those that blessed treated alike with those who poisoned heart and soul?
40950What can it be?
40950What had come to him?
40950What hast thou seen?"
40950What horrible nightmare was this?...
40950What is it?...
40950What is this dazzling splendour that rushes through my being like a leaping river of Life?
40950What is this dear face I see gazing into mine, what is this bounding joy that wants to burst the confines of my overstrained heart?
40950What is thy name?"
40950What secret terrors were hidden within that green solitude?
40950What should he do?
40950What should she do?
40950What was it that suddenly cowed their savage force?
40950What was it?
40950What was the meaning of it all?
40950What was the use of such a thing?
40950What was this old world teaching him?
40950What was to be done?
40950What were his silent pursuers doing around that bewitched mountain lake?
40950What were they awaiting?
40950What were those veils of transparent vapour waving to him from the rock above?
40950What would their lives now be without the glamour and mystery with which she had filled their wandering day?
40950Where had they been during that night of terror?
40950Who were they?
40950Why did a feeling of silent expectancy rise to where he stood?
40950Why did his head ache and throb?
40950Why did his throat feel dry with ill- contained sobs?
40950Why did his tongue cleave to the roof of his mouth, whilst fire seemed to course down his throat?
40950Why did she begin to shiver in the warm sunshine so that all around her lost light and colour?
40950Why didst thou leave the king''s palace?
40950Why had all his efforts been in vain?
40950Why had he a beating heart in each tingling nerve of his aching body?
40950Why had he come here?
40950Why had he not torn the bandage from her brow, and pressed his lips upon that tempting mouth, crushing it beneath his own?
40950Why had he not turned back when the old bell had so persistently warned him?
40950Why had he reached his goal only to be crushed by this bitter grief?
40950Why had his arms become so weak?
40950Why was he so changed?
40950Why was life so cruelly full of lights and shades?
40950Why was the full cup always dashed from the lips?
40950Why was this creature of light cut down in her sweetest prime?
40950Why were dark vapours floating before his eyes?...
40950Why, oh why did he paint the face of Love crowned with a wreath of thorns?"
40950Why, why was he alive while she was dead?
40950Would he ever reach the top of those lonely heights?
40950Would she suddenly close her mind again to his flaming love, now that he had at last aroused her sleeping soul?
40950XXV And thy first night of death Belongs to our first sorrow.... What knowledge now is thine?
40950Yet thou shalt also eat of many; but have a care, I pray thee, and grasp not those that were best left untouched; and yet?
40950Yet thus encumbered, how could he reach the final height?
40950and his silent followers had they not put all their trust in his strength?
40950and yet?
40950asked the astonished peasant,"where?"
40950but would he win?
40950cried the boy,"why didst thou go?"
40950deep, grey, unblinking, sad, and yearning?
40950did he rightly see?
40950did they come quite near to thee?
40950didst thou hear the sound of their voices?
40950had they crowns on their heads?
40950how can I leave her grave?"
40950or was he dreaming the same awful dream over again?...
40950were their wings all shining and bright?
40950why was this burning pain at his heart?
40950would he ever look down upon the other side?
9368And the next?
9368And who are those sitting around the table?
9368Are they all, everyone, asleep?
9368But what of his old wife?
9368Can it be Silly Doot?
9368Did you ever see such a tiny specimen?
9368Does anyone among you know who this lady is?
9368Fight? 9368 How many guesses am I allowed?"
9368Is that all?
9368Is that what Morgan is trying? 9368 Is there anything else that I can do for you, so that I may get the money?"
9368Mortal, do you wish to marry one of my daughters? 9368 Music?"
9368What are they?
9368What building is this?
9368What business is it of yours, where I cut my hazel stick?
9368What has that to do with sickness among my cows?
9368What is in the tent?
9368What made it so small, do you ask? 9368 What?"
9368When did they fall asleep?
9368Who are you, you impudent fellow? 9368 Who is this Giant Blubb?
9368Why do you weep?
9368Again came the sound:"To whit-- to who, to whit-- to who?"
9368Again, the lad put a question to the wise men:"What is in these vases?"
9368Amazed at this, the prince turned to the fair lady and asked:"Who are you?"
9368And if there were no cows, how could the babies or kitties live, or any grown- up persons get buttermilk?
9368And the blackbird opened its orange- colored bill, and answered proudly:"Do you see this flinty rock, on which I am sitting?
9368And where would they get seed for another year''s sowing?
9368Are you brave, and will you come in with me, if I open this door?"
9368Astonished at hearing her name, she cried out,"What mortal has betrayed me?
9368Besides, if all the oats were washed away, how could their wives make flummery, without which, no Cymric man is ever happy?
9368But how about that thing inside of him, which seemed to be a live creature gnawing away, and which only something to eat would quiet?
9368But what did they do at the fairy congress?
9368But what would the king say?
9368But where were the three travelers?
9368But why red?
9368Do you call that music?"
9368For, surely no fairy would tell on me?
9368Had some dragon swallowed everything up?
9368Has the day come?"
9368He inquired:"Who rang that bell?
9368He said to himself,"She is, I wonder, who?"
9368Hear the rhyme: Marvelous Merlin is wasted away By a wicked woman, who may she be?
9368How could it be, in either case?
9368Most impolitely, he interrupted his companion and cried out:"And who is that on the throne?"
9368Now what can we do for you?
9368Now, out of such trouble, how should the maiden, promised to two men, be delivered?
9368One called to his mate, or rival,"What''s in the bag?"
9368One remarked:"How would the Queen like to add another syllable to her name?
9368Or was it some new idea?
9368She asked,"Oh, why did you give him such an answer?"
9368Suppose that in talking to each other we call our Queen Mab- gar, what then?"
9368The King smiled and said to his visitor,"You will attend my son?"
9368The boy asked the king:"Why have your servants brought me to this place?"
9368Then Puck asked the question:"Oh, thou that carriest a jewel in thy head, are there any things alive that are older than thou art?"
9368Then the sovereign told him the reason, and the boy asked:"Who instructed you to do this?"
9368Then turning to the whole company of nobles, he appealed to them:"Did he not pledge his word, before you all, to give me what I asked?"
9368True, she must be brave also, for how could she know, but if hungry, the Afang might eat her up?
9368Turning to the wise men, the boy asked before all:"Now tell me, what is in the pool?"
9368Was it a fairy spell magic ointment, star- tipped wand, treasures of caves, or ocean depths?
9368Was it anything that dragons, giants, ogres, or even swords, spears, catapults, or whips and clubs, or elves or gnomes could do?
9368Were not these enough?
9368What do you wish to do with her?"
9368What secret sorrow clouds thy brow?
9368What was it that wrought this peaceful wonder of the sixteenth century?
9368What was the matter?
9368When the wise men appeared, the boy, in respectful manner, inquired of them thus:"How was the secret of my life revealed to you?
9368Where does he live?"
9368Why a fiery red color like that of Mars?
9368Why do you laugh?"
9368Why so gloomy?"
9368Will that bag never get full?"
9368Will you be my wife?"
9368With such a leader, no soldier was afraid, nor did a single person in the crowd draw back?
9368Would the sleeping host of men then rise up?
9368did you ask?"
9368said he,"did we not talk together, as always before?"
37381Pray, Mrs. Reynard, are you in? 37381 ''And how much is your treasure?'' 37381 ''And what might that one be?'' 37381 ''Are you afraid of poison?'' 37381 ''Are you the Knight who came to the feast every day in a different colour, and who caught the three golden apples?'' 37381 ''But you, Ashenputtel?'' 37381 ''Did n''t you learn to shudder?'' 37381 ''Do n''t you know what has become of my husband?'' 37381 ''Do you know where it is to be found?'' 37381 ''Good day, Granny,''said the Princess;''what are you doing?'' 37381 ''Have you no other daughter?'' 37381 ''How am I to do that?'' 37381 ''How did you get into our house?'' 37381 ''How do you want them treated?'' 37381 ''How much? 37381 ''Is that a Man?'' 37381 ''Is that a Man?'' 37381 ''Is that all?'' 37381 ''Is this stupid goose to sit with us in the parlour?'' 37381 ''Little Snippet, what does it matter to you?'' 37381 ''No,''he said;''how should I have learnt it? 37381 ''Stupid little fellow,''said the Prince, proudly;''what business is it of yours?'' 37381 ''Well, brother Wolf,''said the Fox,''and how did you get on with the Man?'' 37381 ''Well, what''s he like? 37381 ''What are you always mumbling in your beard?'' 37381 ''What can it be? 37381 ''What did Grettel give you?'' 37381 ''What did Grettel give you?'' 37381 ''What did she give you, Hans?'' 37381 ''What did she give you?'' 37381 ''What did she give you?'' 37381 ''What did she give you?'' 37381 ''What did you do with it?'' 37381 ''What did you do with the bacon, Hans?'' 37381 ''What did you do with the calf?'' 37381 ''What did you do with the kid?'' 37381 ''What did you give her?'' 37381 ''What did you give her?'' 37381 ''What did you give her?'' 37381 ''What did you take her?'' 37381 ''What did you take her?'' 37381 ''What did you take her?'' 37381 ''What do you mean?'' 37381 ''What do you shriek for? 37381 ''What do you want?'' 37381 ''What do you want?'' 37381 ''What do you wish me to do?'' 37381 ''What does a person deserve who deceives his master?'' 37381 ''What is Mrs. Reynard doing?'' 37381 ''What is it?'' 37381 ''What is that extraordinary object?'' 37381 ''What is the meaning of this inhuman prank? 37381 ''What is the thing that whirls round so merrily?'' 37381 ''What is your wish?'' 37381 ''What must I do?'' 37381 ''What will my Husband say to me?'' 37381 ''Where are the servants?'' 37381 ''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 ''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 ''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 ''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 ''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 ''Where did you leave Grettel?'' 37381 ''Where is the knife, Hans?'' 37381 ''Who dares to steal my lark?'' 37381 ''Who is there?'' 37381 ''Who is your Father?'' 37381 ''Who would ever think of sitting at the corner of the market with crockery?'' 37381 ''Why not?'' 37381 ''Why not?'' 37381 ''Why not?'' 37381 ''Why should I be sad?'' 37381 ''Why, what''s the matter, Grethel? 37381 ''Without any consideration?'' 37381 ''Would he nail up Falada''s head in this gateway, so that she might see him as she passed?'' 37381 ''Would n''t you like to be a Tailor?'' 37381 ''Would you believe that when I asked him how he was going to make his living, he said he would like to learn how to shudder?'' 37381 ''You blow among all the trees and leaves, have not you seen a White Dove?'' 37381 ''You shine all night,''she said,''over field and forest, have you seen a White Dove flying by?'' 37381 A Carter, walking behind him, heard this, and asked:''Who are you?'' 37381 After a time, when they had warmed themselves, they said:''Comrade, shall we have a game of cards?'' 37381 Am I not good enough for you?'' 37381 And he packed him in head first, tied it up, and slung up the Disciple of Wisdom, dangling him in the air, and said:''How are you, my dear fellow? 37381 And when she got home and asked the Looking- glass--''Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?'' 37381 Are n''t you ashamed to come into my presence? 37381 As soon as a few rings of smoke arose, the Little Man appeared with a little cudgel in his hand, and said:''What is my Master''s command?'' 37381 At last he said to himself:''If I sell it what shall I gain? 37381 At last he said:''Who calls?'' 37381 At the end of the year he came home again, and his father asked:''Now, my son, what have you learnt?'' 37381 But he only said,''Will you go, or will you not?'' 37381 But she, not knowing why she was to keep away, thought,''Why should I not be there, if they are there?'' 37381 But the Judge said:''Why should I deny him that short pleasure? 37381 But what was the good of that? 37381 But who could ever get them? 37381 Can I do anything to please you?'' 37381 Clever Hans''Where are you going, Hans?'' 37381 D''ye want to know what now I make? 37381 Did I deserve such treatment at your hands?'' 37381 Did my preserver never come?'' 37381 Do you call that proper behaviour?'' 37381 Hardly had he wished it than the Lord High Marshal said--''Your Majesty, we are all rejoicing here, how fares it with Her Majesty the Queen? 37381 Have you brought me anything nice?'' 37381 Have you learnt how to shudder now?'' 37381 He collected quite a heap of gold, and at last he thought:''What is the good of all my gold if I stay at home here? 37381 He struck her in the face, and said,''Did your preserver never come? 37381 How dare you ask me how I am getting on? 37381 How many arts are you master of?'' 37381 How, now, was she to set to work? 37381 I hate cold water, and I have already emptied a cask of wine; but what is a drop like that on a burning stone?'' 37381 I have helped you against the Dragon, and will you now quite forget me?'' 37381 In the evening Iron Hans came back, looked at the boy, and said,''What has happened to the well to- day?'' 37381 Is she still alive in the tower, or has she perished?'' 37381 Is there no mark on my body by which you may know me?'' 37381 Mrs. Reynard asked:''Does the gentleman wear red breeches, and has he a pointed muzzle?'' 37381 Next morning the King came again to look after him, and said:''Well, how did you get on this time?'' 37381 Next morning the Man led him to a spring, and said,''You see this golden well is bright and clear as crystal? 37381 Next morning, the Man, wanting to get his fifty thalers, came to him and said:''Now do you know what shuddering means?'' 37381 Now it so happened that as he was passing a thicket, that a little Mannikin came out and cried:''Whither away, my merry fellow? 37381 Now the wicked Queen, as soon as she got home, went to the Glass and asked--''Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?'' 37381 On his way up to the Princess, the Gardener met him, and said,''How can you take such poor flowers to the Princess? 37381 Once, when she asked her Glass,''Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?'' 37381 Perhaps it belongs to you, especially if you are a child of good luck?'' 37381 Reynard?'' 37381 Seeing the Huntsman look sad, the Prince said to him,''My good Huntsman, what is the matter with you?'' 37381 She said to herself,''Am I still in the power of the demon? 37381 She went and opened the door, and there stood a young Fox, who said--''What are ye doing, pray, Mistress Cat? 37381 Sleeping or waking? 37381 Snowdrop peeped out of the window and said,''Good- day, mother, what have you got to sell?'' 37381 So he set off, and when he had ridden some distance he came upon a Dwarf standing in the road, who cried,''Whither away so fast?'' 37381 So she climbed up to the Sun and said to it,''You shine upon all the valleys and mountain peaks, have you not seen a White Dove flying by?'' 37381 Tell me who is your father?'' 37381 The Father thought,''Can it be Ashenputtel?'' 37381 The Huntsman said:''Why are you so sad?'' 37381 The Judge said:''Was it a soldier who punished you so with his sword?'' 37381 The Lad cried for the second time:''What do you want here? 37381 The Maiden gave him the dish; but the Prince threw off the coverings, and said,''You old sinner, why did you want to kill me? 37381 The Merchant thought,''What could it be but my dog?'' 37381 The Prince did not want to go home without his brothers, and he said,''Good Dwarf, can you not tell me where my brothers are? 37381 The Serpent was really an enchanted maiden, who was delighted when she saw the youth, and said,''Have you come at last, my preserver? 37381 The Thief said:''What would have been the good of discovering her if I had not taken her from under the Dragon? 37381 The Wild Man appeared immediately, and said,''What do you want?'' 37381 The Witch said:''Who are you, countryman, and what do you want?'' 37381 The Wolf greeted her, and said--''Good- day, Miss Cat, of sprightly wit, How comes it that alone you sit? 37381 The Youth felt inclined to join them, and cried:''I say, can I play too?'' 37381 The fifth said,''Who has been using my fork?'' 37381 The first one, as he came along, stumbled against him, and said:''What kind of earthworm is this?'' 37381 The first said,''Who has been sitting in my chair?'' 37381 The fourth said,''Who has been eating my vegetables?'' 37381 The man was silent, but his son said,''What do you want?'' 37381 The old man thought,''Could it be Ashenputtel?'' 37381 The old scoundrel came in and said,''Where are the tongue and the heart of the boy?'' 37381 The second said,''Who has been eating off my plate?'' 37381 The seventh said,''Who has been drinking out of my cup?'' 37381 The sixth said,''Who has been cutting with my knife?'' 37381 The third said,''Who has been nibbling my bread?'' 37381 Then Mrs. Reynard asked:''Does the gentleman wear red breeches, and has he got a pointed muzzle?'' 37381 Then he climbed up, looked in, and cried,''Dearest mother, lady Queen, are you still alive?'' 37381 Then he cried--''What''s the rumbling and tumbling That sets my stomach grumbling? 37381 Then she said to herself,''Now, Grethel, do n''t be afraid, eat it all up: why should the good food be wasted? 37381 Then the Dwarfs said,''Will you look after our household, cook, make the beds, wash, sew and knit, and keep everything neat and clean? 37381 Then the Youth said:''There, you see, cousin mine, have I not warmed you?'' 37381 Then the father flew into a rage, and said:''Oh, you hopeless creature, have you been spending all this precious time and learnt nothing? 37381 Then the first looked and saw a slight impression on his bed, and said,''Who has been treading on my bed?'' 37381 Then the old King thought,''What if my son really was innocent?'' 37381 There he met a Fox, who said:''Why do you hang your head, and wander about in this solitary fashion?'' 37381 There, tapping with her five gold rings,Is Mrs. Reynard in?"
37381What are you making there, so good?''
37381What do you mean?''
37381What further orders have you, Master?''
37381What have you brought me?''
37381What have you brought me?''
37381What have you brought me?''
37381What have you brought me?''
37381What have you brought me?''
37381What have you got for me?''
37381What have you got for me?''
37381What have you got for me?''
37381What seed did it spring from?
37381What sort of education have you had?
37381When he came back his father asked him again:''My son, what have you learnt?''
37381When she got home the Queen stood before her Glass and said--''Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?''
37381When she had entered, she met a Dwarf, who said:''My child, what are you looking for?''
37381When the cloud of smoke he made cleared off a little, a tiny black Man appeared before him, and asked:''What orders, Master?''
37381When the little black Mannikin appeared, he said to the father,''Have you brought what you promised me?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Where have you been?''
37381Whither away so fast?
37381Who has been drinking out of my cup?
37381Who has been drinking out of my cup?''
37381Who has been drinking out of my cup?''}]
37381Why do you run after the lad like that?
37381Will your Lordship have a sup?''
37381[ Illustration: Does the gentleman wear red breeches, and has he a pointed muzzle?]
37381[ Illustration:''Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?'']
37381[ Illustration:{ Good Dwarf, can you not tell me where my brothers are?}]
37381cried his father,''is that all you have learnt?
37381dear Falada, there thou hangest 92 Blow, blow, little breeze, And Conrad''s hat seize 96 Good Dwarf, can you not tell me where my brothers are?
37381how are you and how do you get along in these hard times?''
37381it is so far off, and what should I do in a strange country where I know no one?''
37381or what are ye at?''
37381said he, quite pleased to see them,''has the wind wafted you back to me again?''
37381said he,''are those all the thanks I get?
37381said he,''what will you have?''
37381said the Man,''what are you talking about?
37381telling the whole story, and ending by asking,''What doom does he deserve?''
37381thought the Goat,''is it possible that my poor children whom he ate for his supper, should be still alive?''
37381what has come into your head?
37381what will become of me?''
37381what''s this house, so mean and small?
37381where am I?''

37381who is the Lord of this forest so fine?''
40502Am I handsome?
40502And then--?
40502And what about him?
40502And you''re sure you''ll never regret it?
40502Are the Brownies there too?
40502Are ve all here alretty?
40502Are you sure of this?
40502Are you using any measures to prevent it?
40502But are you mortal?
40502But how?
40502But how?
40502But is it not a clever one?
40502But where shall I go, good Gando?
40502Ca n''t you see which looks the knobbiest?
40502Can we, a race of big men and women, be governed by a pygmy king-- a hop- o''-my- thumb? 40502 Can you swim?"
40502Den vhy don''d you? 40502 Did n''t I tell you you were never going to see him again?"
40502Did you press a complaint?

40502Gone where?
40502Good mother,he said, with a winning smile,"may I trespass upon your hospitality?
40502Has anything happened to her?
40502Has n''t school been out a good many years?
40502Have you anything to propose?
40502Have you brought your knitting with you?
40502Have you ever tried to put them to a test?
40502Have you not heard of her?
40502Have you not heard of it?
40502Here at last, are you?
40502His mine?
40502How can I help you?
40502How can he? 40502 How could you join the band?
40502How do you keep your age?
40502How do you know?
40502How long are you going to keep us here?
40502How much do you owe me?
40502How now, you rogue?
40502How so?
40502How so?
40502How so?
40502I wonder what''s become of the band?
40502If I call upon you will you convulse the earth, and rouse to fury the slumbering volcano?
40502Is Vulcan at his forge?
40502Is not that Dragonfel''s palace over yonder?
40502Is not this a pretty disguise?
40502No authority?
40502Now what d''ye mean?
40502Of the Brownies?
40502Of whom is this creature speaking?
40502Officer,said King Stanislaus,"have you anything to report?"
40502Oh, sir,cried Dame Drusilda, very much distressed,"why have you brought us poor, defenseless girls here?"
40502Oh, sir,she implored,"can nothing move you?"
40502Or sing?
40502Our strange wedding- guests-- where are they?
40502Shall we admit them?
40502So rats will eat the wedding- cake, eh?
40502Spry, Flash, Nimble, Twist, and the rest of you-- where are you, I say? 40502 Those poor, weak creatures of the night?
40502Too late?

40502Well,His Majesty asked,"have you found out anything?"
40502Well,he gruffly said,"has anyone been here since I''ve been gone?"
40502What about the Brownies?
40502What are they doing here, I wonder?
40502What brings you here?
40502What did I tell you? 40502 What did I tell you?"
40502What did you discover?
40502What did you fall against?
40502What do you want me to do?
40502What harm can befall her?
40502What has happened?
40502What have they done?
40502What is it, officer?
40502What is it, officer?
40502What is it?
40502What is it?
40502What is yours?
40502What was it?
40502What was that?
40502What''s that?
40502What''s the matter with the night?
40502What''s wrong?
40502What, another?
40502Where am I?
40502Where are those lazy''prentices of mine?
40502Where have you been, and what has kept you? 40502 Where is Dame Drusilda?"
40502Where is it?
40502Where is your master?
40502Where''s the heart?
40502Which of us would you choose, Your Majesty?
40502Which one of his stomachs?
40502Which was the one who did it?
40502Whither would you go?
40502Who dares disturb me on my busy night?
40502Who else but the Brownies?
40502Who else could reign in his stead?
40502Who plew dot bum node?
40502Who told you this?
40502Who told you?
40502Who will prevent the marriage, kind master?
40502Whoever gave them an invitation?
40502Why did you do it?
40502Why do you oppose the marriage?
40502Why have you made me a prisoner, and carried me away from home in this way?
40502Why have you sought me out?
40502Why should n''t I be able to see you?
40502Why should we help him?
40502Why, who''s this fellow?
40502Will you permit me a word, kind master?
40502Would she have bestowed on him the gift of second sight and at the same time taken away his size? 40502 You rascal, why have you chosen this masquerade?"
40502You''ll need a rehearsal, wo n''t you?
40502You''re not trying to make a Brownie of him, are you?
40502Are you all retty?"
40502Are you retty?"
40502But it had failed him once-- would it fail him again?
40502But the lovely bride-- where is she?"
40502But what do you propose to do?"
40502But what have we here?"
40502But what was that?"
40502But who are you, and whence came you?
40502Can I rely upon your powerful aid should I need it?"
40502Did you find a clue?"
40502Do you dance?"
40502Do you not think we had better seek some other place where we can do good?"
40502Do you understand me?"
40502Dragonfel surveyed the work with great satisfaction, and asked Grouthead who was in general charge:"When were they fed last?"
40502Has my voice grown so weak, you rogues, that you can not hear me?
40502Have you a sweetheart?"
40502Have you come far?"
40502Her hearers all looked puzzled, and Dame Drusilda made bold to ask:"Who is Euphrosyne of whom you speak?"
40502How could he make them all his friends?
40502How do we know this is the truth?"
40502How does this concern me?"
40502How would he use it?
40502Idling your time away?
40502In what manner is it strange?"
40502Into what danger had their beloved Prince Florimel so recklessly plunged, and would they ever see his face again?
40502Iss i d a so- na- da?"
40502Now that they had succeeded in reaching Dragonfel''s country what steps should be taken in the effort to recover Queen Titania and her companions?
40502Of that we have abundant proof, have we not, husband?"
40502Soon Dragonfel would revive, and then what would happen?
40502Soon matters took on their usual routine, and, noticing that the Policeman limped, King Stanislaus asked:"Officer, what''s the matter?"
40502Tell me, must I stay here always?"
40502The banging continued with greater insistence, and, advancing close to the portcullis, Prince Florimel shouted:"Who are you, and what do you want?"
40502The point is, could he represent his kingdom with the proper dignity?"
40502The question is, where have they gone?"
40502Then noticing Florimel for the first time he asked:"But who is this?"
40502They embraced fondly, and Titania asked:"When will the Brownies take us away from here?"
40502They had saved their foe, but to what purpose?
40502Vat are you shtanding here for?"
40502Vere iss Heiny von Strauss?"
40502What could he do to gain the confidence and esteem of these little people whom already he was beginning to love?
40502What have you discovered?"
40502What have you ever done?"
40502What kind of a young lad was he?
40502What shall we do with them?"
40502Where has he gone?"
40502Where have you been, imps?
40502Who else can match you in your wondrous strength?"
40502Why have you not returned as you went?
40502Why not continue here, where we are all so happy?"
40502Would it not be better to intrust a delicate matter like this to Snoutpimple?"
40502You understand, do n''t you, that after this you''re to let the Brownies alone?"
40502[ Illustration]"Are you happy, Florimel?"
40502[ Illustration]"Are you sure the Brownies did it?"
40502[ Illustration]"Of whom are you both talking?"
40502[ Illustration]"The enchanter across the sea?"
40502[ Illustration]"Was he handsome?"
40502[ Illustration]"What is your wish?"
40502cried Violet, and"What did I tell you?"
19734Ah,she replied,"have I not cause?
19734Am I likely to do this? 19734 Am I?"
19734Am not I she?
19734Am not I wicked,said she,"to behave so ill to a beast who has shown me so much kindness?
19734And for what reason?
19734And if I were to give it to you, what then?
19734And these words--''She is better in my heart,''said the princess;"must we burn them too?"
19734Are then those cares despised,replied Papillette,"which I have so assiduously employed to amuse and gratify you by the display of my talents?"
19734Are these your tricks upon travellers? 19734 Are you not sometimes called Rumpelstilzchen?"
19734Are you satisfied to be no different from other people?
19734Are you, then, the son of a queen?
19734Art thou a goddess, or a simple mortal?
19734Art thou afraid of being poisoned?
19734Art thou,cried the giant,"the villain that killed my kinsmen?
19734Be content,answered the frog,"I daresay I can give you some good advice; but what will you give me if I bring back your plaything to you?"
19734Beauty,said he,"will you give me leave to see you sup?"
19734Beauty,said the merchant,"how comes it that you ask for nothing: what can I bring you, my child?"
19734But what shall I do for your coachman, Cinderella?
19734But where is my poor beast? 19734 But, madam, is there not another princess called Florina?"
19734But,continued the princess,"how shall I be sure my parrot is not a sorcerer?"
19734But,said Prince Cherry,"shall I not be disgraced if I harm a creature so perfectly innocent?"
19734But,said the enchanter,"can you remain five years in so undignified a position?
19734Can it be,thought she,"that my poor children whom he has swallowed for his supper are yet alive?"
19734Can not you protect me?
19734Dear hind,said she,"where shall we sleep?
19734Do I displease you?
19734Do you think me a fool?
19734Do you wish anything more, madam?
19734Does he so?
19734Does she love you then?
19734Good father,said Jack,"can you lodge a traveller who has lost his way?"
19734Have I rightly heard?
19734How dare you have the impertinence to address me? 19734 How have you found your way to our house?"
19734How is this?
19734How so?
19734How?
19734I am not such a fool as that,cried the dwarf,"Do n''t you see the detestable fish wants to pull me in?"
19734I am then to understand,replied the fairy,"that you wish to be cured of this unfortunate passion?"
19734I hope,said Jack,"you will not stay here long: but pray tell me what is the meaning of your being here at all?"
19734Is all this a dream?
19734Is it possible thou canst feel?
19734Is it possible,added she,"that you have not perceived his ears, of so unusual a size, and a deep red colour?"
19734Is it very far from hence?
19734Is that all?
19734Is there no exception, madam?
19734Is your name Carl?
19734It is impossible,said she,"that this should be a spirit; for can spirits sleep?
19734Madam, are these all yours?
19734May I inquire,said Longthorn,"who is in that litter?"
19734Mother,said the little daughter,"shall not brother have one too?"
19734My children,said the woodcutter,"are these things, then, necessary for happiness?
19734My good woman,said he to her,"can not you show me the way through the wood?"
19734My good woman,said she,"have you a room to let, for me and my pet here?"
19734My lovely hind,said he,"why did I wound you so cruelly?
19734My pretty maiden, what are you doing here all alone?
19734Nay, what is this?
19734Now then, what has gone wrong with you old Whiskers?
19734Now, my pretty pigeons,said she,"will you convey me to the palace of King Charming?"
19734Oh, madam,answered Abricotina,"is not his desire to see you violent enough already; would you augment it?"
19734Pray, sir, is it very heavy?
19734Previously, madam,said the woodcutter,"will you have the goodness to tell me, what is a fairy?
19734Prince, who has deceived you? 19734 Prince,"said she,"will you be kind enough to turn a little?
19734Princess,said he,"why are you afraid of me?
19734Say you so, my friend?
19734Say you so?
19734See,said they,"what happens from the pride of the little wretch; why did not she ask for such things as we did?
19734Shall I not cry?
19734Suppose sportsmen should shoot him, or eagles and kites attack him, and vultures devour him just as if he were a mere bird and not a great king? 19734 That is true,"returned the monarch;"but merely regarding him as a picture, how has he appeared to you?"
19734Ungrateful queen,said the crab,"have you forgotten the fairy of the fountain?
19734Was it not rather some lover? 19734 Was she?"
19734Well, Thomas,said he,"how can I recompense what you have done for me?
19734Well,said the giant,"what news, cousin Jack?"
19734What a funny nose?
19734What are you crying for, my little maid?
19734What are you doing, good old woman?
19734What do I hear?
19734What do I not owe you?
19734What do I see?
19734What do you see, Greybeard?
19734What does he want there? 19734 What has the old woman to do with my nose?"
19734What have I done to thee, that thou shouldst forget me and marry Troutina?
19734What have we done?
19734What have you done, Zelia?
19734What is all this about?
19734What is the condition?
19734What is the matter with you, father?
19734What is the matter with you, little man?
19734What is this?
19734What is wanting to my nose?
19734What metamorphosis is this?
19734What misfortune has happened?
19734What shall I do?
19734What shall we do?
19734What, in these clothes?
19734What, you?
19734What,said she to the ambassador,"your master does not find me handsome enough, or rich enough?"
19734Whence came all these ornaments?
19734Where are you going, dear Bear?
19734Where are you going?
19734Where are you, Tommy, my dear Tommy?'' 19734 Where are your brothers?"
19734Where is she?
19734Which will you have, my dear?
19734Who are you, charming bird?
19734Who are you?
19734Who can be merry when his neck is in danger?
19734Who is there?
19734Who knows how that may be, or how things may turn out between now and then?
19734Who speaks to me so gently?
19734Who told you, madam,answered Abricotina,"that he is frightful?
19734Why can I not return and govern it as before?
19734Why do you stand there gaping?
19734Why should the little wretch be better off than we?
19734Why, then, do you dress yourself so fine, and adorn your chamber with flowers?
19734With your two eyes, what can you do?
19734You crow loud enough to deafen one,said the donkey;"what is the matter with you?"
19734You wish to go to the ball; is n''t it so?
19734After that he began to eat, and said,"Margery, what are you crying for?
19734All at once the door opened, and a little man entered, and said,"Good evening, my pretty miller''s daughter why are you weeping so bitterly?"
19734All at once the wise woman stood near her again, and said,"Little Two Eyes, why do you cry?"
19734All night long he sat sighing to himself,"How can I ever find a ring which she dropped into the river a month ago?
19734Am I to die without ever giving the king an heir?"
19734And as she looked up once in her sorrow, a woman stood near her, who asked,"Little Two Eyes, why do you cry?"
19734And by what miracle could I come by it?
19734And when she asked the mirror at home,"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
19734Are you asleep, Little One Eye?"
19734Are you asleep, Little_ Two_ Eyes?"
19734As he was going along he met a butcher, who inquired why he was driving the cow from home?
19734As she came to the field she said to herself,"What shall I do?
19734As soon as the damsel was alone, the little man came the third time, and said,"What will you give me if I again spin all this straw for you?"
19734At length he gave his last penny to an old woman, and then turned to Jack,"How shall we be able to get food for ourselves the rest of our journey?"
19734At length she said:"Courtly invisible, why are you not the person I desire you should be?"
19734Avenant came, creeping feebly along, fell at the king''s knees, and kissed his feet:"O sire, what have I done that you should treat me so cruelly?"
19734But instead of singing then as she should,"Are you asleep, Little_ Three_ Eyes?"
19734But tell me, Beauty, do you not think me very ugly?"
19734But the king looked kindly at her, took her hand and said,"Wilt thou go with me to my castle, and be my dear wife?"
19734But, my dear Papillette, what can I do to console you?"
19734Ca n''t you come and render me some assistance?"
19734Ca n''t you think of anything better?"
19734Could he have really heard her, and been indifferent to her sorrow; or had he not heard her at all?
19734Could you imagine that I would ever we d a man who submitted to lose his ears?"
19734Could you love me enough to do that?"
19734Did I not cast her into prison, and intend to sell her as a slave?
19734Did you hear or see anything in the dead of the night?"
19734Do not you approve of this?"
19734Do you object to my birth, my temper, my manners?"
19734For what was the good of all their love when they were still in the power of the fairy Soussio?
19734Has this enemy to my peace carried away my dear Florina?"
19734He knocked, Toc-- toc, and the grandmother said,"Who is there?"
19734Here Leander interrupted her:"Permit me, madam,"said he,"to ask you what benefit it would be to me to be a spirit?"
19734His father, old James Dietrich, was made a nobleman, and his brothers and sisters gentlemen and ladies-- for what can not money do?
19734How can I marry an Iron Stove?"
19734How is my roe?
19734How is my roe?
19734How is my roe?
19734How is your appetite now?
19734I have managed to escape, but good advice is scarce; tell me where I shall go to?"
19734I, a poor princess, kept in captivity for two years, with you as my gaoler?"
19734I, madam?"
19734I, the master of a great empire, can not I kick my own dog?"
19734If we stay here the wild beasts will devour us; is there no little hut where we can hide?"
19734In me he delighted, By him I was knighted; Did you never hear of Sir Thomas Thumb?"
19734In the evening he came to the nursery, and there at midnight the dead queen appeared, and said--"How is my baby?
19734Is a giant standing outside the door to carry you off?"
19734Is it not enough that you once cut my beard shorter?
19734Is this a body composed of air and fire, without substance, as Abricotina told me?"
19734Knitting her brows, Troutina exclaimed,"What creature is that who dares approach so near my golden throne?"
19734Little Three Eyes, have you been asleep?
19734Little Two Eyes answered,"Have I not need to cry?
19734Miss Javotte"--that was the elder sister''s name--"will you not let me go to- morrow, and lend me your yellow gown that you wear on Sundays?"
19734Of what use is all your grandeur, pomp, magnificence, if nobody sees it?"
19734Of what use would riches, power, or beauty be to him if he were a bad man?"
19734Pray how did you sleep last night?
19734Richly dressed, she stood before the mirror, and asked of it:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
19734Shall I cut first, or eat first?
19734Should I be so bold as to conceal from your knowledge a thing that so nearly concerns you?
19734Snowdrop looked out of the window and cried,"Good morning, good woman: what have you to sell?"
19734So nothing was explained, and nobody presumed to ask any questions about her, for ought not a prince be able to marry whomsoever he pleases?
19734So once, when the queen asked of her mirror:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
19734Tell me candidly, is there anything in me, except my ugliness, which displeases you?
19734The cruel stepmother walked up to her mirror when she reached home, and said:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
19734The fifth,"Who has used my fork?"
19734The first said,"Who has been sitting on my stool?"
19734The fourth,"Who has touched my vegetables?"
19734The giant, with a voice like thunder, roared out,"Who is there?"
19734The king asked,"Who are you?
19734The king her father died, and the people, who knew she was his heir, began to inquire, with one accord, where was the Princess Florina?
19734The king saw that her heart was beating violently, and said,"How, my child, why are you afraid?
19734The king was so much pleased at what he heard, that he asked Hop- o''-my- thumb if there was any favour he could bestow upon her?
19734The lady answered him by a question,"Do you remember your father, young man?"
19734The little man said,"What will you give me if I do it for you?"
19734The little sister cried and said,"Can not you be released?"
19734The maid went down into the cellar, and found Alice sitting before the cask crying heartily, and she asked,"Alice, what are you weeping about?"
19734The nurse could not answer her; but when she had disappeared she went to the king, and told him all about it, upon which he cried,"What does it mean?
19734The people flocked far and near to look at him; and the king, before whom he was carried, asked him who he was, whence he came, and where he lived?
19734The princess presently asked Abricotina whether she had seen anything extraordinary during her short travels?
19734The queen placed herself before the mirror at home and said:"Little glass upon the wall, Who is fairest among us all?"
19734The second,"Who has eaten off my plate?"
19734The seventh,"Who has drunk out of my little cup?"
19734The sixth,"Who has cut with my knife?"
19734The third,"Who has taken part of my loaf?"
19734Then a voice came out of it, and said,"Whence do you come, and where do you want to go?"
19734Then she ate up the contents of her pot, and when it was finished, she thought to herself,"Now, shall I reap first or sleep first?
19734Then she was seized with terror, and thought,"Can I get rid of the blame of this?"
19734Then the envious mother cried out,"Shall she be better off than we are?"
19734Then the father said again,"Where is my son?"
19734Then the first dwarf looked about, and saw that there was a slight hollow in his bed, so he asked,"Who has been lying in my little bed?"
19734Then the knight said,"Little Two Eyes, what shall I give you for it?"
19734They asked--"Whence do you come?
19734They bewitch us only to poison our lives; I have known it by experience; and will you suffer the same?"
19734They called to her, and said,"Who are you?"
19734They had escaped their pursuers, but they were now exposed to dangers of another kind: whither should they turn?
19734They were in the habit of laughing at all small noses; but how dared they make fun of the nose of Princess Darling?
19734This quite frightened her, and she began to doubt whether she were really Clever Alice, and said to herself,"Am I she, or am I not?"
19734This time she said--"How is my baby?
19734What fairy is it that takes such care to pay me these agreeable civilities?"
19734What is the court etiquette there now?
19734What need now prevent me from exercising this trade?
19734What right has an eagle to eat up a raven?"
19734What shall I do?"
19734What should I do if I saw his poor feathers scattered on the ground, and knew that he was no more?"
19734What will he do?
19734When she came to the house- door it was shut; so she tapped at the window, and asked,"Hans, is Alice within?"
19734When she paused in her lamentations,"Adorable princess,"said he,"why do you mourn?
19734When some time had passed, the queen at last began to speak, and said--"How is my baby?
19734When the dwarf had recovered from his first fright, he called out, in his shrill voice:"Could not you deal rather more gently with me?
19734When the father came home, and sat down to dinner, he said,"Where is my son?"
19734When the little boy came in at the door, the Evil One made her say kindly,"My son, will you have an apple?"
19734Which wine do you prefer-- canary, hermitage, champagne?"
19734While she was combing out the elder''s hair, this ill- natured girl said sharply,"Cinderella, do you not wish you were going to the ball?"
19734While she was thus lamenting some one called to her:"What is the matter with you, king''s daughter?
19734Who knows how much more wickedness I might not have done to her and others, if heaven''s justice had not stopped me in time?"
19734Who should this be but Prince Riquet with the Tuft?
19734Who would obey a Blue Bird?"
19734Why should you anticipate afflictions which may never come to pass?"
19734Why will not I marry him?
19734Will it not be time enough to- morrow morning?"
19734Will nothing serve you for breakfast this cold morning but broiling poor Jack?"
19734Will you live eternally unknown in a corner of the world, concealed from the rest of human kind?
19734Wondering what it was the bells rang for, he said to his servant--"But where is the company?"
19734You may guess how joyful the queen was at hearing this; and when, soon after, the little man entered and said,"Queen, what is my name?"
19734am I betrayed?
19734and went on singing,"Are you awake, Little Three Eyes?
19734are you there?
19734asked Rose- red,"You do n''t want to go into the water?"
19734butterfly, what dost thou know of my Papillette?"
19734cried he, rudely seizing her arm;"where is the princess I married to- day?"
19734cried his majesty, very much surprised,"does the castle also belong to you?
19734cried she,"must your malignity then extend even to those whom I wish to benefit?
19734cried she,"where am I?"
19734cried the king;"arrived here in full daylight?"
19734did she see?
19734exclaimed the princess angrily;"and do you pretend to love, if your soul is insensible to such transporting sounds?"
19734for what do you want with a poor thin little fellow like me?
19734is it you?
19734kind Percinet, what do I not owe you?
19734madam,"replied Hop- o''-my- thumb, who trembled from head to foot,"what shall we do?
19734madam,"said Abricotina, interrupting her,"have you not troubles enough already?
19734madam,"said he,"you thought to cheat me, did you?
19734my little master,"cried he who seemed to be the ringleader of the rest,"who bade you inquire?"
19734said Cinderella indifferently;"and who might she be?"
19734said Fortunatus;"and pray, is the man living who made it?"
19734said Jack, looking into the pit,"have you found your way so soon to the bottom?
19734said he to his servant,"are there some of you too that wear white, like the servants?"
19734said he,"are you a lord?
19734said he,"have I caught you at your bad tricks at last?
19734said she, over and over again,"what is become of my dear children?"
19734said the barber,"since your royal highness means to sacrifice them to an unreasonable caprice, what signifies it whether they are inflamed or not?"
19734said the giant,"what heavy news can come to me?
19734shall my family become extinct, and my inheritance pass away into the hands of strangers?
19734she asked him mischievously,"Is your name Kunz?"
19734she cried,"what can have induced you to mutilate yourself so cruelly?
19734she inquired;"and when did his majesty take you into his service?"
19734she replied, drawing herself back:"Did I not see you passing through the air with a beautiful nymph?
19734she sang, through carelessness,"Are you asleep, Little_ Two_ Eyes?"
19734sighed the queen;"but are there no means of giving a little sense to the one who is so beautiful?"
19734thought he,"I am furious against these wicked men, who are carrying her away; and did I not do the same myself?
19734to disfigure one''s face so?
19734were you faithful then?"
19734what are you about?
19734what are you panting so for, worthy Seize''em?"
19734what could a poor little dog do to defend her?
19734what have I done?"
19734what were you doing up in the tree?"
19734where are our poor children?
19734where do you want to go?"
16981A goat?
16981A silver saucer?
16981About everything, grandfather?
16981About the sky, and the thunder, and the dogs, and the flies, and the birds, and the trees, and the milk?
16981All this time and not thought of a story? 16981 And did she ever come back again?"
16981And did that little drop of drink make me do all that?
16981And green grass?
16981And has Baba Yaga really got iron teeth?
16981And her hut?
16981And how did you feed it?
16981And is that so?
16981And little shining flowers?
16981And the little mouse?
16981And us?
16981And what about you, boasting one? 16981 And what did you ask for?
16981And what do they call you?
16981And what happened to Sadko?
16981And what happened to Vanoushka when he grew up?
16981And what is Ivan the Ninny doing with a princess?
16981And what is that?
16981And what is the name of your little river?
16981And what must I do?
16981And what will you do with it?
16981And what will you do with them?
16981And what''s that?
16981And where are you off to?
16981And where are you off to?
16981And whither shall you sail now?
16981And you can really make a flying ship?
16981Are there really any of them?
16981Are they ready to eat yet?
16981Are we at the top?
16981Are you blind? 16981 Are you happy, little sweet pigeon?"
16981Are you hungry, mouseykin?
16981Are you really?
16981Are you sure that the water is boiling?
16981Are you warm, maidens? 16981 Are you warm, maidens?"
16981Are you weaving, little niece?
16981Are you weaving, little niece?
16981Are you weaving, my pretty?
16981Are you weaving, my pretty?
16981But how did you get to the top of the dovecot when the door into the house was bolted and fast?
16981But how will you repay me?
16981But is that all, grandfather?
16981But listen,said he;"what do you think of this?
16981But what am I to do?
16981But what are you dawdling about? 16981 But what are you shooting at?
16981But what is that,says the peasant--"there, shining in the corner?"
16981Can you feel it?
16981Did n''t I tell you you are to go to- day to your dear little aunt to ask for a needle and thread to mend a shirt?
16981Did you do anything to my dinner?
16981Do you dare to answer the Tzaritza? 16981 Do you really want me to come too?"
16981Do you still wear sheepskin coats? 16981 Empty?"
16981Father,says the little Prince,"may I have the fastest horse in the stable?"
16981Feed it, my love?
16981Finely,says the second;"and how''s yourself?"
16981God be good to me,says the old fisherman;"but what shall I say to my wife, going home like this without the bread?"
16981Good health to you, uncle,says the Fool;"and where are you taking your straw?"
16981Grandfather,he asked,"when the frost went, which was water first-- the big river or the little river?"
16981Grandfather,one of them sings out from the other end of the table,"you just tell the tablecloth to turn inside out,""How?"
16981Grandmothers,said he,"is this the end of the world?
16981Have I ever told you the story of''The Silver Saucer and the Transparent Apple''?
16981Have you beaten the children for stealing my good turnips?
16981Have you beaten the children?
16981Have you given them a beating they''ll remember?
16981Have you got any more of it?
16981Have you seen the fox, Lisabeta Ivanovna, with her husband, the Head- forester?
16981Ho,says the old man,"so you are the thieves who have stolen the turnips from the top of the dovecot?"
16981How can I do that, brother? 16981 How can you pay for them?"
16981How could any one come here?
16981How dare you stand there and tell me that? 16981 How did you get on to the top of the dovecot when the door into the house was bolted and fast?"
16981How shall I find her?
16981I am Burrowing Mouse; who are you?
16981I am little, am I? 16981 I beg your pardon,"says the bear,"whom have you married, Lisabeta Ivanovna?"
16981I beg your pardon,says the old man,"but could you, just to oblige my wife, give us some sort of trough to put the bread in?"
16981I wonder what story it will be to- night?
16981I''ll be happy to help you,says the hunter,"but how?
16981Is Miss Heron at home?
16981Is he going to blow in it?
16981Is it forbidden to have a look at his Excellency?
16981Is n''t it lucky our blankets do n''t shrink like that?
16981Is n''t there?
16981Is that all?
16981Is that the end?
16981Is the green sprouting?
16981Is the master at home?
16981Is there a lot of it?
16981Little pigeons,says he,"what would you like me to bring you from the fair?"
16981Little sweet pigeon,says he,"will you be my Tzaritza, and a kind mother to Holy Russia?"
16981Master, why do you weep?
16981Master, why do you weep?
16981Master,says the horse of power,"why do you weep?"
16981May I see the sails?
16981My dear,says the Sun''s little sister,"why are your eyes so red?"
16981My dear,says the fine gentleman,"what is the matter with you?"
16981Now it''s my turn,says Misery;"but what''s the good?
16981Now little one,says her father,"what is it you want?
16981Now then, you squinting rascal,says the bear,"do you know where the fox lives, over there?"
16981O big bear,says the little snow girl,"how can I help crying?
16981O gray wolf,says the little snow girl,"how can I help crying?
16981O red fox,says the little snow girl,"how can I help crying?
16981Oh, what has become of our little snow girl?
16981Oh, where is our little white pigeon?
16981Please, great giant,says he,"is this the end of the world?
16981Please, great giant,says he,"is this the end of the world?
16981So it was you, Misery, who were helping me?
16981So when there are no stars?
16981Stolen away?
16981Stupid fellow,says his mother,"what''s the good of your going?
16981That white dust?
16981Then what are you going to do?
16981Then why do the dishes taste better?
16981Turned porter?
16981Well, and how are you, brother?
16981Well, little one,says the old merchant,"and do n''t you want your fairing too?
16981Well, little pigeons, little hawks, little bear cubs, what is it to be?
16981Well, what are you going to do to amuse me?
16981Well, what are you staring at?
16981Well,says the old woman in her sharp voice,"are they doing nicely?
16981Well?
16981Well?
16981Well?
16981Well?
16981What am I to do now?
16981What are you crying about, little daughter of the Snow?
16981What are you doing down there?
16981What are you doing here, little one?
16981What are you doing, thin black cat?
16981What are you looking for?
16981What are you tied up like that for?
16981What are your names?
16981What bygones?
16981What did I tell you?
16981What did they pay?
16981What did you do?
16981What did you put in the dishes to- day that you never put before?
16981What do you do when the warm weather comes?
16981What do you mean? 16981 What for?"
16981What had become of you, gossip?
16981What has come to the birds?
16981What have the children tricked you with this time?
16981What have you done to my children, my little red cherries, my little pigeons? 16981 What have you done with them?"
16981What if only one comes?
16981What if we were to marry, Cat Ivanovitch? 16981 What is it now?"
16981What is it then, grandfather?
16981What is it, Misery?
16981What is it, sisters?
16981What is it, then?
16981What is it?
16981What is it?
16981What is the gun for?
16981What is the matter with you, little pigeons?
16981What is this ringing of bells,says she,"and this noise of trumpets?
16981What is this?
16981What is your name,says the fine gentleman,"and why are you in trouble?
16981What of that?
16981What sort of a something?
16981What sort of drink is it that knows how to boast?
16981What was done in the kitchen to- day that has not been done there before?
16981What was that?
16981What will you have to take with you on the road?
16981What''s that?
16981What''s the good of that? 16981 What''s the matter now, old man?"
16981What''s the matter with you? 16981 What''s the matter with you?"
16981What,says he,"you want to have the lamb killed?
16981What? 16981 What?"
16981What?
16981What?
16981When is the christening?
16981Where have you been?
16981Where is the necklace?
16981Which of you washes the dishes?
16981Who are you?
16981Who is going to the christening?
16981Who is he?
16981Who is it then?
16981Who is that?
16981Who is that?
16981Who knows?
16981Who were they?
16981Whom have you married, Lisabeta Ivanovna?
16981Why are you hopping along on one foot?
16981Why are you taking wood to the forest?
16981Why did I ever take the golden feather that had fallen from the fire- bird''s burning breast? 16981 Why did n''t you beat her in the face, and not let her go by?"
16981Why did n''t you squeak when she opened you?
16981Why did n''t you tear her to pieces?
16981Why did n''t you tear the little girl''s eyes out?
16981Why does n''t the ship move when the sails are up?
16981Why so?
16981Why were you so long in getting the bath ready? 16981 Why, Princess,"says he,"will you not marry me, and forget your blue sea and your silver boat?"
16981Why, are they short of straw in your village?
16981Will you marry me?
16981Wo n''t you run about like the others, little white pigeon?
16981Would you like me to cure you?
16981Would you say that, grandfather?
16981Yes; but other people?
16981You have n''t forgotten the dress?
16981You think he''ll look at you?
16981You''d swallow the pike, I suppose?
16981You''ll sleep in the hut to- night, wo n''t you, my love,says the old woman,"after running about all day long?"
16981*****"Is that the end?"
16981A feast?
16981And as soon as he put his head inside the door the old woman began,--"Have you found the thieves, you old fool?"
16981And before they slept she kissed him very tenderly, and she said,--"O Sadko, you will not forget me?
16981And by what name am I to call your Excellency?"
16981And how is an old man like me to get hold of them, flying through the tops of the high trees and running up and down the branches?"
16981And may I live with you and be safe from my sister, who is a witch, and grows like a seed of corn, and has iron teeth?"
16981And may I live with you and be safe from my sister, who is a witch, and has iron teeth, and grows like a seed of corn?"
16981And my health is not so bad; and how is yours?"
16981And now, little pigeons, who is going to be first into bed?"
16981And once, when Vanya asked him why the sun was hot, and his sister Maroosia went on and on asking if the sun was a fire, who lit it?
16981And the Princess, who was very beautiful, said,"A little Russian ship?"
16981And the end of the story?
16981And the moment old Peter began the story both children would ask at once,"Which is the cross one?"
16981And what happened to him after that?"
16981And what is the axe for?
16981And when can I pay my respects to his Excellency?"
16981And when the King came to see them, as he was used to do, they asked him,--"Father, is it true that there is a garden in the world?"
16981And where, oh, where is the blue sea, and my little silver boat with its golden oars?"
16981And why do you think they were unhappy?
16981And will you see to these two?
16981Are we near the top?"
16981Are you warm, little paws?"
16981Are you warm, little pigeons?"
16981Are you warm, little red cheeks?
16981Are you warm, little red cheeks?
16981Are you warm, little red cheeks?"
16981Are you warm, my little red cheeks?"
16981Are you weaving, my pretty?"
16981As soon as he was gone Miss Heron thought,"Why did n''t I agree to marry Mr. Crane?
16981At last she said, shyly,--"Tell me, Cat Ivanovitch, are you married or single?"
16981Baba Yaga came to the window and asked,--"Are you weaving, little niece?
16981But the gudgeon looked at him with his great eyes, and asked,"Have you got good teeth?"
16981But to each other,"How can this be?"
16981But what could he do?
16981But what happened to Misery when he went floating away?
16981But what reason have you got for making a merry noise in the night?"
16981But who is it who was killed?"
16981But who knows?
16981But with you, brother?
16981Ca n''t you see that I''m a lady?
16981Did n''t you find the thieves yesterday?
16981Did the night pass well?"
16981Do you still roll up at night under the rugs?"
16981Do you think you''ll get the better of me again by a clumsy lie of that kind?
16981For as soon as I have picked up all these mountains and thrown them down again I shall die, and then where would you be?
16981For as soon as I have rooted up all these trees I shall die, and then where would you be?
16981For as soon as we have broken all our needles and used up all our thread we shall die, and then where would you be?
16981Frost climbed lower in the tree, and crackled louder than ever, and asked,--"Are you still warm, little maid?
16981Has n''t He given me two little pigeons, who nearly always are as merry as all little pigeons should be?
16981He called out cheerfully,--"What are you crying about, little daughter of the Snow?"
16981He climbed a little further, and the old woman screamed out,--"Are we at the top now?
16981He crackled in the top of the tree, and then called; down out of the topmost branches,--"Are you warm, little maid?"
16981He leant down, looking through the branches, and asked,--"Are you warm, maidens?
16981He stood under the tree and asked,--"What are you crying about, little daughter of the Snow?"
16981He stopped, and asked his wife,--"Is that you joining in my song with a little thin voice?"
16981How dare you kill my best sheep?"
16981How dare you play the master in my house?
16981How was it at home?"
16981I believe we are late already.--Good health to you, Fedor,"he said to an old peasant;"and has the baby gone in?"
16981I ran home, and the mistress, when she sees me, sings out,''What the devil are you doing here without your master?
16981In the winter the children in their little sheepskin coats...."Like ours?"
16981It was not I who shut you in under the stone....""Who was it, if it was not you?"
16981Let me see that you have at least a regiment of soldiers,''"Thinks he to himself,"How can a simple peasant raise a troop?
16981May I sit down here and rest a little while?"
16981Mushrooms?
16981Or had this long beard something to do with it?"
16981Says the little one,"Could I have a silver saucer and a transparent apple?
16981She jumped about in the sack, and screamed at the old man,--"Are we near the top now?
16981She ran to meet him, and shouted out,--"Where are the little ones?"
16981She says to her husband,"How on earth did you know all that?"
16981The little maid, who had heard the last words, began to cry,"Now, what are you whimpering about?"
16981The little man screamed out,--"What are you chuckling about?
16981The poor man stopped, and asked out loud,--"Who are you who are singing with me?"
16981The thin black cat gobbled them up, and said to the little girl,--"Little girl, do you want to get out of this?"
16981Then he asked,--"Are you still warm, little maid?
16981Then he turns to the little pretty one, and he says:"Little sweet pigeon, where is your silver saucer, and where is your transparent apple?"
16981Then one of them said to the old man,"Are you hungry, grandfather?"
16981WHO LIVED IN THE SKULL?
16981What are you jesting about?
16981What did they give you?
16981What do you want for it?"
16981What fortunate chance has brought you to this forest?
16981What sort of a housekeeper will you make?"
16981What visitor have you here?"
16981When shall we be married?"
16981Where have you been that you have not heard?
16981Who are you?"
16981Who are you?"
16981Who are you?"
16981Who are you?"
16981Who else could climb so high without using the stairs?
16981Who has invited us?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who lives in the little house?"
16981Who paid for the turnips?
16981Who stole the tablecloth?
16981Who will pay for the tablecloth?
16981Who will steal turnips again?
16981Why ca n''t you take a drink from that?"
16981Why did I not listen to the wise words of the horse of power?"
16981Why should anything happen?
16981Will your Excellency honour my humble house by visiting it as a guest?"
16981Would you like the tale of the little Snow Girl who was not loved so much as a hen?"
16981You will play to me sometimes, and sing?"
16981[ Illustration:"Head in air and tail in sea, Fish, fish, listen to me"] What was to be done?
16981and if it was burning, why did n''t it burn out?
16981says her father;"and why are you so out of breath?"
16981says his father,"have you got a voice at last?
16981says she;"I must not blow my own whistle- pipe?"
16981says she;"and why do you look at me with cruel eyes?
16981says the Fool;"have n''t you heard?
16981says the Tzar--"a transparent apple?
16981says the old fisherman;"and do you talk with a human voice?"
16981she screamed out;"you have n''t caught so much as one little fish for our supper?"
16981they asked;"and where is our dinner?"
16981who knows if I shall be happier?"
39167All I bind you to is this-- to tell no one of the magic gifts, to keep your possession of them a complete secret, until----"Till when?
39167All of yours had better be brought in here, I suppose, cousin?
39167And Giles?
39167And did he keep even that to himself?
39167And how can that be done?
39167And if-- supposing Hodge succeeds?
39167And it would have been difficult to get much to the market, so far off as it is, without a cart and pony, and how could we have bought these?
39167And what do you do to make them tell you the time?
39167Are you carrying a lamp-- a fairy lamp?
39167Are you in earnest, Mike,he asked,"about giving up your try?
39167Are you, yourself, Dirk?
39167Aria, sweetheart, Aria,the child exclaimed in a piteous voice,"you do n''t think, you ca n''t mean that we may have to part?
39167Bless me, what are you thinking of? 39167 But how should you know?
39167But she''s a young lady, I suppose?
39167But still-- where had I best keep them? 39167 But where are we-- or you-- to find the robin?"
39167But, tell me, is that very autocratic young woman, your cousin, good to you? 39167 But,"persisted poor Aria,"how do we know that the robin may not be deceiving us?
39167But-- if both failed, and Mike came to have his try at it?
39167Ca n''t you forgive it, and come back to the forest again?
39167Can I----?
39167Clodagh, you do n''t think possibly she''s a witch?
39167Could n''t you-- couldn''t your queen turn me into a fairy for good? 39167 Darling,"she said,"are you really safely back?
39167Did I? 39167 Did n''t I?"
39167Did you love your Irish home very dearly?
39167Did you never hear the proverb about not looking a gift horse in the mouth?
39167Did you speak?
39167Do n''t you know? 39167 Do you know the story of the forest?"
39167Does she expect me to kiss it?
39167Have I done it all in my sleep?
39167Have you ever heard of the Marristons?
39167Have you ever peeped up at the eaves above the little storm- window where you are so fond of sitting?
39167Have you really washed it and ironed it and all, already? 39167 Here,"she said, fumbling for her substantial purse,"a groat for two ounces of it, did you say?
39167How about the garret?
39167How are they?
39167How did she know?
39167How should I know?
39167How-- what do you mean?
39167I am afraid,she began timidly,"I am afraid that Paulina may be awake by now, and if she heard us and looked out----?"
39167I must not damp her hopefulness,she thought,"and after all-- who knows?"
39167I should have had to give it up-- it would not have been fair to Paulina, and then where could I have gone, for home in my own country I have none? 39167 If Paulina suspects anything?
39167Is it quite done?
39167Is it something very difficult that I have to do?
39167Is it--?
39167Is she so very old?
39167Is that a-- a waterfall?
39167Let me see-- what was I saying? 39167 Linde,"he said,"good Linde, you who have never been guilty of a cruel unkind deed, Linde, you who have been brave and obedient, what do you choose?"
39167Madam, lady, what shall I call you?
39167Merran, Merran,it said,"where are you, child?
39167Mother,he went on,"long ago there used to be an old- fashioned kind of weather- teller, up in the garret, do you remember?
39167No one ever interferes with you there-- they are used to your playing there by yourself, are n''t they?
39167Nor did I,said Clodagh,"only----""Only what?"
39167Oh may n''t I stay with you, dear kind fairy?
39167Oh, a broomstick, maybe, or has she a pet gander?
39167Oh, child,she said,"is it late?
39167Oh,_ can_ we have offended her?
39167Please,said the voice-- it was the boy''s, the elder of the two--"oh please can you tell me if Dame Martha Swann lives here or near here?"
39167Right across the sea, I take it?
39167Robin, have you tricked me? 39167 Thank you,"she said, adding timidly,"May Aria come with me?
39167That''s to say you do n''t suspect her of trying to supplant us in his favour, as to inheriting whatever he has to leave?
39167That''s why you mean to have the dame and her boy and girl every Sunday?
39167That''s your national greeting, is it not? 39167 The ladies''things have gone on in a cart, I suppose?"
39167Then are those the leaves we had in our jar? 39167 Then can you show us the road there?
39167Then you do think they are a message?
39167Then you''ve seen her?
39167Then,she went on, somewhat nervously,"perhaps you wo n''t wear your very best dresses there, or shall I take out everything?"
39167Unless what?
39167Was it what you heard this afternoon that''s made you think of him?
39167Well, dame,he began,"and how goes the world with you?"
39167Well, what do you say to this?
39167Well, what does it matter?
39167Well,asked her sister,"had you any adventures?"
39167Well,she said gently,"why should n''t you carry out your plan?"
39167What are you thinking of, child? 39167 What can you mean?"
39167What extravagance is this? 39167 What have I been thinking of?"
39167What is it?
39167What is to be this maiden''s reward for what she has done? 39167 What sort of one?"
39167What then?
39167What will the servants think when they see it?
39167What?
39167Whatever has to be done, and wherever,she said,"why can not we go together?
39167Whatever is the matter? 39167 Where am I to dig?"
39167Where shall I hide them?
39167Which of you''s going with father?
39167Who and what can she be?
39167Who are you?
39167Who can be the unknown friend?
39167Who is there?
39167Who knows what may happen before that?
39167Whom have we here?
39167Why should you give up your place to this person and her bundles? 39167 Would nobody mind-- would nobody miss you?"
39167Would you like to know how_ I_ travel? 39167 Would you like to know the time at the present moment?"
39167Yes, dear, what is it?
39167Yes, father?
39167You have a hand- bag?
39167You have been there, I make sure?
39167You have met before?
39167You just say''What o''clock is it?'' 39167 You will come again soon?"
39167You wo n''t forbid it, sister, will you?
39167_ She_ may have no thought of the kind-- why should she? 39167 --Was it the same as before?"
39167And how about your own?"
39167And she gave an odd though not disagreeable little laugh as she went on:"I hope you lost none of your goods and chattels on the way?
39167And you said it would be just a simple meal--''pot- luck''you called it, if I remember right?"
39167And you would gladly fill the old jar again, would you not?"
39167And-- if I can do it, will you let me gather some roses?"
39167And-- what do you want me to do?
39167Are you happy to be with her?"
39167Brothers, shall we let her choose her reward?"
39167But-- she rubbed her eyes-- was she dreaming?
39167But--"and then for the first time a new perplexity struck her,"if it really is it,"she asked,"how can I be in it?
39167Ca n''t you turn me into a fairy altogether?"
39167Can it be from these flowers?"
39167Did Lady Roseley send some one with you, then, to see you off?
39167Do you remember the old tale of the grateful gnome who taught his human benefactor how to make sure of a good dinner, by using a certain spell?"
39167For you live in the forest, do you not, or close by?"
39167For you see in my own room they might get knocked or brushed away, even without being seen?"
39167Giles chuckled as he whispered,"Some good honest bread and cheese, hey, Mike?"
39167Had it_ spoken_?
39167Had she shut her eyes for an instant?--what had happened to them?
39167Have I told you that their home was on the edge of a forest?
39167Have you grown big, or have I grown tiny?"
39167How about the old peasant who presumed to intrude upon you this morning?"
39167How am I to find my way here in the middle of the night when it is all dark?
39167How can I be littler even than you?
39167How can I say?
39167How can I thank you?"
39167How comes it that he can afford to give feasts?
39167How do you know so much about me and the garret and everything, dear Sunshine fairy?
39167I had no idea we were at Crossway Corner already?"
39167I must wait till I hear the fairy clock strike twelve, and then-- will the door open?
39167I say, Mike,"he went on,"maybe-- I should n''t be very surprised if that''s how you''ve hit the nail on the head-- eh, what do you think of that?"
39167I suppose you really could see me when you were the little toy woman in the rain- house?
39167I suppose, my dear Annot, the luggage- cart wo n''t be here in time?"
39167I thought it was a powder-- a fairy powder that the godmother bequeathed?"
39167I will come to fetch them in the middle of the night or whenever you like-- and,"she added, with a little smile,"_ might_ I have the fairy spade too?"
39167I wonder if Paulina ever feels about it in the least as I do?"
39167I wonder if father had?
39167If she notices, and thinks there is something strange about it all?"
39167If so, what''s to be done with this?"
39167Is that a new frock she''s on, eh, mother?"
39167It will make them much nicer to me, wo n''t it?"
39167Linde, are you that maiden?"
39167May I never come again?"
39167May n''t I come up here again and see you as you really are?"
39167May we not meet here again as usual while you are still with us?"
39167Maybe old Peter left him something after all-- unbeknown to any one?"
39167Maybe they are the descendants of our Dirk and his Merran?
39167Must I go home-- what shall I do?"
39167No, a half- groat only?
39167No?
39167Oh Robin, darling, may I gather the flowers and dry the leaves, ready for the market?
39167Oh!--"with an exclamation,"can it be you, Clodagh O''Beirne?
39167Or to shut her up in the tomb with the dead, or not dead robin?
39167Our ancestor, I should call him, for it was long ago, and our bird lives are very short-- so surely they should not be cut still shorter?"
39167Paulina rapidly explained, and"Need I come down?"
39167Shall I ask what time it is now?
39167Shall I show you?"
39167Suppose we get out our one?"
39167Surely you''ll get some hot potatoes at least, Mike?"
39167That''s what I want you for-- to use your intelligence; do n''t you understand?
39167This is for first- class passengers, and moreover our places have been engaged for some days ahead.--What are you thinking of, you silly child?"
39167Was it all a dream?
39167Was she dreaming?
39167We should have to be parted pretty certainly, and would not that be a thousand times more terrible than having to face the dark forest for once?
39167Well, and how wags the world with you?
39167Were these two of the"good people"in disguise, come to visit him for some mysterious reason?
39167Were they going to shoot_ her_, possibly?
39167What is that deep sigh about?"
39167What true Irish girl is not?
39167What was in store for the poor things?
39167What were they about to hear?
39167Where is she, and is she all right?"
39167Whether this was so or not, who can say?
39167Who can say?
39167Who can say?
39167Who could have dreamt of it?"
39167Who knows what may come of it?"
39167Why I could have held you in my hand when I was down in the garret, if I could have got you?
39167Why did n''t you remind me that you had to get ready too?"
39167Why would n''t the robin let Aria come too?
39167Will you allow me to go to our rooms now and arrange them, partly at least?
39167Will you go to see her to- morrow, Ysenda, and learn about it?"
39167Will you let me run for the doctor?"
39167You say you wish we need not go to the town to- morrow?
39167You stand here-- the clock strikes, at the twelfth stroke you tap the ground with the three feathers-- you have them safe?"
39167You were asking for old Dame Martha, my boy?"
39167You''d written for it, no doubt?"
39167You''ve all got your work cut out for you-- eh, boys?"
39167exclaimed Michael,"how could I risk it after the failure of the others?
39167exclaimed Paulina;"and how am I to change my dress?
39167she asked,"exactly the same old woman and all?"
39167she began,"are these the roses that our fairy powder came from?"
39167she exclaimed, as she caught sight of Clodagh,"are you at it still?
39167she exclaimed,"and you yourself, Clodagh?
19068And can not you defend me?
19068And the cow?
19068And the gold?
19068And the horse?
19068And the pig?
19068And what does the frog want?
19068And what have you brought with you from your travels?
19068And what name did you give the child?
19068And where have you been all this time?
19068Are you afraid of poison?
19068Are you called Harry?
19068But how shall I get it?
19068But what is he like?
19068But what is the good of the stick?
19068But what will you have, Aschenputtel?
19068But who knows whether that will happen?
19068Can I come too?
19068Can you tell me,said the bride,"if my bridegroom lives here?"
19068Give us some of that,cried the little men, but she answered,"I''ve not enough for myself; how can I give away any?"
19068Good day, mother,said the princess,"what are you doing?"
19068Good evening, my black fellow,said he,"how do you get on in this lonely spot?"
19068Halloa, cock,cried he,"where are you off to?"
19068Hansel, what are you stopping behind and staring for?
19068How can a silly beast give one any rational advice?
19068How can that be managed?
19068How can you ask?
19068How is this?
19068How shall I ever get there?
19068How shall I manage that?
19068How shall we get over?
19068How so, Grethel? 19068 Huntsman,"said the leader,"what are you aiming at?"
19068I should like to know who would be cheerful when his neck is in danger?
19068Is not this the golden bird that we bring?
19068Is the stupid creature to sit in the same room with us?
19068Look,said one of them,"how is this?
19068Look,said the wife,"is not that nice?"
19068Mother,said the little girl,"shall not my brother have one too?"
19068Mrs. Fox, are you there?
19068Mrs. Fox, are you there?
19068My good woman,said he,"can you show me the way out of the wood?"
19068Never mind, do not weep,answered the frog;"I can help you; but what will you give me if I fetch up your ball again?"
19068No,said the man;"what should I wish for?"
19068Now then, what does she want?
19068Now then, what does she want?
19068Now then, what is the matter with you, old shaver?
19068Now then, who asked you to come?
19068Now then,said the leader,"what are you doing up there?"
19068Now, Holdfast, what are you so out of breath about?
19068Now, look here,said the wife,"I am king, and you are only my husband, so will you go at once?
19068Now, my dear son, what have you learned?
19068Now, wife, what have you got for me?
19068Now, wife,said the man,"how can I ask him such a thing?
19068Now, wife,said the man,"what do you want to be emperor for?"
19068Now, wife,said the man,"what do you want to be king for?
19068Now, wife,said the man,"what should we be kings for?
19068Now,said his wife,"shall I not kill him?"
19068Now,said the old tailor,"has the goat had her proper food?"
19068Now,said the old tailor,"has the goat had her proper food?"
19068Now,said the old tailor,"has the goat had her proper food?"
19068O my dear wife,said the man,"the cottage is good enough; what do we want a castle for?"
19068Oh dear me,answered she,"how can I help crying?
19068Oh dear me,said Else,"how can we help crying?
19068Oh dear, what will become of me,cried she;"what will my husband say?"
19068Oh, is it you, old waddler?
19068Oh, poor child,answered the old woman,"do you know what has happened to you?
19068Oh,said the bridegroom,"how come you to have such dreadfully ugly relations?"
19068One day is like another,answered the charcoal- burner:"every evening I have potatoes; have you a mind to be my guest?"
19068Prisoners, say you?
19068Stupid goose,said the old woman,"the opening is big enough, do you see?
19068Thank you very much, Miss Cat,answered the wolf;"but is Mrs. Fox at home?"
19068That is a good trade,returned the father;"but what have you brought back with you from your travels?"
19068Then are you not wounded?
19068Then, did you wish for nothing?
19068There''s a suitor below, Shall I tell him to go?
19068There''s a suitor below, Shall I tell him to go?
19068This is not the right one,said he,"have you no other daughter?"
19068Well, husband,said the wife,"have you caught nothing to- day?"
19068Well, what do you see?
19068Well, what now?
19068Well, what now?
19068Well,said he,"what do you think of that?"
19068What are you afraid of, my dear child? 19068 What are you after, grasshopper?"
19068What are you carrying under your apron?
19068What are you crying for?
19068What are you talking about, husband?
19068What can that be?
19068What did Grethel give you, Hans?
19068What did Grethel give you, Hans?
19068What did Grethel give you, Hans?
19068What did Grethel give you, Hans?
19068What did Grethel give you, Hans?
19068What did Grethel give you?
19068What did you do with it, Hans?
19068What did you do with it, Hans?
19068What did you do with it, Hans?
19068What did you do with it, Hans?
19068What did you do with the calf, Hans?
19068What did you take her, Hans?
19068What did you take her, Hans?
19068What did you take her, Hans?
19068What did you take her?
19068What did you take her?
19068What did you take her?
19068What do I see?
19068What do you think of that, comrade?
19068What does he say?
19068What does it matter?
19068What does this mean?
19068What had we better do now?
19068What have you brought home from your travels?
19068What in the world can it be?
19068What is Mrs. Fox doing?
19068What is it now?
19068What is it?
19068What is the condition?
19068What is the good of him then?
19068What is this that I hear?
19068What misfortune has happened?
19068What servants?
19068What shall I do?
19068What shall I do?
19068What shall be done about it?
19068What should he go for?
19068What thing is that that twists round so briskly?
19068What trade have you taken up, my son?
19068What would you like?
19068Where are the servants?
19068Where are thy brothers?
19068Where are you going so early, Little Red- cap?
19068Where are you, then?
19068Where are you?
19068Where does your grandmother live, Little Red- cap?
19068Where have you left Grethel, Hans?
19068Where is it to be had?
19068Who is there?
19068Who is this immense fellow carrying on his shoulder a bundle of stuff as big as a house?
19068Who knows where the maid can have come from?
19068Who knows,said she,"whether they are coming or not?
19068Who would have thought it? 19068 Why not?"
19068Why not?
19068Why not?
19068Will you be quiet?
19068Will you join me?
19068You little elf,said they,"how can you help us?"
19068Your cries are enough to pierce bone and marrow,said the ass;"what is the matter?"
19068A bear met him, and seeing that he looked very disturbed, asked him,"What is the matter, brother fox, that you should look like that?"
19068After a while the miller noticed the skin lying on the ground with the raven wrapped up in it, and he said,"What have you got there?"
19068And Benjamin said,"Do n''t you know any?"
19068And Falada answered,"Princess, dost thou so meanly fare?
19068And a ton of gold was dragged in by sixteen strong men, but he put it all into the sack with one hand, saying,"Why do n''t you bring some more?
19068And after a little time he said,"Well, now, wife, what is there left to be, now you are pope?"
19068And after the baptism he said,"What does that person deserve who drags another out of bed and throws him in the water?"
19068And as they were sitting at table and eating, they asked,"What news?"
19068And he said to him,"Will you be my man, and come along with me?"
19068And in the midst of her weeping she heard a voice saying to her,"What ails thee, king''s daughter?
19068And so he cried out:"What is this I feel inside me Knocking hard against my bones?
19068And the goat answered,"How can I be full?
19068And the goat answered,"How can I be full?
19068And the head answered,"Princess, dost thou so meanly fare?
19068And the head answers,"Princess, dost thou so meanly fare?
19068And the miller asked"Can he tell my fortune?"
19068And the queen went home and stood before the looking- glass and said,"Looking- glass against the wall, Who is fairest of us all?"
19068And then he went up to the first spinster and said,"How is it that you have such a broad flat foot?"
19068And what is it you cook to- day?"
19068And when he dropped down again without any damage, the giant said to him,"How is this?
19068And when she came into the field she said to herself,"Shall I eat before I cut, or shall I sleep before I cut?
19068And when she got there, she said to herself,"Now, what shall I do?
19068And when she went home and asked the looking- glass,"Looking- glass against the wall, Who is fairest of us all?"
19068And when the wicked woman got home she went to her glass and said,"Looking- glass against the wall, Who is fairest of us all?"
19068And whose, I would know, may the wretched hole be?"
19068And why should I go in the paper frock?
19068As he lay in bed one night thinking of this, and turning and tossing, he sighed heavily, and said to his wife,"What will become of us?
19068As soon as the girl was left alone, the little man appeared for the third time and said,"What will you give me if I spin the straw for you this time?"
19068As they were eating the dry bread together, Fred said,"Kate, did you lock up the house before leaving?"
19068As they were wrangling, a duck came quacking,"You thieving vagabonds, who told you you might go to my mountain?
19068At once seven soldiers appeared before him, and the corporal said,"What does my lord and master please to want?"
19068But Grethel perceived her intention, and said,"I do n''t know how to do it: how shall I get in?"
19068But Kate walked in front of the houses calling out,"Good people, what have you for us to steal?"
19068But Mrs. Fox asked,"Has the gentleman red breeches and a sharp nose?"
19068But Tom Thumb made as if he did not hear them, and cried out again,"What would you like?
19068But how, you ask, could they let the fox devour all the poor chicks?
19068But she did not see why she should stay away, and thought,"If they do so, why should not I?"
19068But the King looked kindly on her, took her by the hand, and said,"Will you go with me to my castle, and be my dear wife?"
19068But the bride sat still, and said nothing, till at last the bridegroom said to her,"Now, sweetheart, do you know no story?
19068But the father, wishing to see for himself, went out to the stall, stroked his dear goat, and said,"My dear goat, are you full?"
19068But the goat actually cried,"How can I be full?
19068But the prudent youth answered,"Give you my cake and my wine?
19068But the tailor, not trusting his word, went to the goat and said,"My dear goat, are you really full?"
19068But the waggoner, muttering,"What harm can you do to me?"
19068But the young King said,"Who knows but that there may be a good reason for it?
19068But what avails that?
19068But what became of the goat, the unlucky cause of the tailor''s sons being driven out?
19068But what became of the poor fox?
19068But where did you buy that fine goose?"
19068But who knows that?
19068By the well water What promised you me?
19068Early next morning as she and Conrad drove their geese through the gate, she said as she went by,"O Falada, dost thou hang there?"
19068For a long time the giant was quite unaware of this, but at last he waked up and pushed his comrade, and said,"What are you hitting me for?"
19068Fox?"
19068How should any one buy gallows- meat?
19068I am on the way thither to seek my fortune: have you a fancy to go with me?"
19068In the evening, when he came to lead her home, he said,"Well, goat, are you full?"
19068In the evening, when he came to lead her home, he said,"Well, goat, have you had enough?"
19068In the evening, when it was time to go home, he said,"Well, goat, have you had enough?"
19068In the street he was met by a sparrow, who said,"Dog, my brother, why are you so sad?"
19068Is she sleeping, or waking, or what is she at?"
19068It asked again,"And my little baby, how does_ he_?"
19068Now he had saved a very pretty sum of money, and he changed it all to gold, and said to Kate,"Do you see these yellow counters?
19068On the way they came to a great wood, and she asked,"Oh, whose is this forest, so thick and so fine?"
19068Once when there was a great wash she saw among the clothes twelve shirts, and she asked her mother,"Whose are these twelve shirts?
19068PRUDENT HANS ONE day, Hans''s mother said,"Where are you going, Hans?"
19068She had a magic looking- glass, and she used to stand before it, and look in it, and say,"Looking- glass upon the wall, Who is fairest of us all?"
19068She went in and found a youth, who asked,"Whence do you come, and what do you want?"
19068Sleepest thou, or wak''st thou?"
19068Snow- white peeped out of the window and cried,"Good- day, good woman, what have you to sell?"
19068So one day when the queen went to her mirror and said,"Looking- glass upon the wall, Who is fairest of us all?"
19068So she ran up to the door of her house, but it was locked; then she knocked at the window, and cried,"Hans, is Else within?"
19068So the king''s son set off to find the golden horse, but he sighed, and was very sad, for how should it be accomplished?
19068So when they came to the parsonage- house, Tom Thumb crept into the room, but cried out with all his might,"Will you have all that is here?"
19068The King noticed how quickly her heart was beating, and said,"My child, what are you afraid of?
19068The cat answered,"Bread so white, and milk so sweet, Will it please you sit and eat?"
19068The coach stood still, and the King said,"My child, who art thou, and what art thou doing there?"
19068The farmers were astonished and cried,"Little Farmer, whence come you?
19068The fifth said,"Who has been using my little fork?"
19068The first said,"Who has been sitting in my little chair?"
19068The fourth said,"Who has been tasting my porridge?"
19068The horseman heard Hans say this, and called out to him,"Well Hans, what are you doing on foot?"
19068The king asked,"Who art thou?
19068The little girl said,"Where are my twelve brothers?
19068The maiden said, weeping,"Is there no means of setting them free?"
19068The malicious animal answered,"How can I be full?
19068The next morning, as they passed under the dark gate- way, the Princess said,"O Falada, dost thou hang there?"
19068The old woman went out, but she saw nobody at the steps, and cried again,"Where art thou?"
19068The old woman, however, nodded her head, and said,"Ah, my dear children, how come you here?
19068The plan was successfully carried out; and when the young man returned with the treasure, the fox said,"Now, what will you give me for my reward?"
19068The robbers gave him great praise, saying,"You are a most valiant hero; will you be our captain?"
19068The second raven asked,"Is there no remedy?"
19068The second said,"Who has been eating from my little plate?"
19068The seventh said,"Who has been drinking from my little cup?"
19068The sixth said,"Who has been cutting with my little knife?"
19068The straw began first, and said,"Dear friends, how do you come here?"
19068The tailor, not feeling satisfied, went out to the stall, and said,"My dear goat, are you really full?"
19068The third raven said,"Is there no remedy?"
19068The third said,"Who has been taking my little loaf?"
19068The wolf answered,"Wo n''t she take another spouse, To protect her and her house?"
19068The young King noticed how Faithful John always passed by this one door, and asked,"Why do you not undo this door?"
19068Their sister wept at hearing this, and said,"Can nothing be done to set you free?"
19068Then all at once the door opened, and in came a little man, who said,"Good evening, miller''s daughter; why are you crying?"
19068Then he asked the third,"How is it that you have such a broad thumb?"
19068Then he returned, and said,"Well, goat, are you full?"
19068Then he shook himself together, and opened his eyes and said,"Oh,--wife, what did you say?"
19068Then he went up to the second and said,"How is it that you have such a great hanging lip?"
19068Then it said,"What cheer my two guests keep they?"
19068Then said he,"Mother, what is the fare to- day?"
19068Then said one of the others,"Have you looked behind the great cask?"
19068Then said the beggar- man,"It does not please me to hear you always wishing for another husband; am I not good enough for you?"
19068Then said the farmers,"Are there any left?"
19068Then she ate her fill of stew, and when she could eat no more, she said to herself,"Now, what shall I do?
19068Then she cried again,"Where art thou?"
19068Then she cried out,"Where art thou?"
19068Then she grew frightened, and began to doubt whether she were really Clever Else or not, and said to herself,"Am I, or am I not?"
19068Then the King felt pity for her, and as he saw that she was very beautiful, he said,"Will you go with me?"
19068Then the father laughed, and said,"How will you manage that?
19068Then the father said again,"Where is my son?"
19068Then the first one spoke again,"What does that avail him?
19068Then the first one, looking round, saw a hollow in his bed, and cried,"Who has been lying on my bed?"
19068Then the flounder came swimming up, and said,"Now then, what does she want?"
19068Then the little boy came in at the door, and she said to him in a kind tone, but with evil looks,"My son, will you have an apple?"
19068Then the little man said,"What will you give me if I spin it for you?"
19068Then the man was uneasy, and asked,"What is the matter, dear wife?"
19068Then they heard a thin voice call out from inside,"Nibble, nibble, like a mouse, Who is nibbling at my house?"
19068Then they passed through a great town, and she asked,"Whose is this city, so great and so fine?"
19068Then they passed through a meadow, and she asked,"Oh, whose is this meadow, so green and so fine?"
19068Then when next time came,"Where to, Hans?"
19068They called out to her, saying,"Who art thou?"
19068They then said,"What are you doing here in the wood this winter time in your little thin frock?"
19068What good shall I be to you if you land me?
19068What have you brought me to- day?"
19068What have you brought me to- day?"
19068What have you brought me to- day?"
19068What have you brought me to- day?"
19068What have you brought me to- day?"
19068What have you brought me?"
19068What wert thou doing in the tree?"
19068When Fred came home and saw the new decorations, he said,"Kate, what have you been doing?"
19068When at last they woke it was night, and Grethel began to cry, and said,"How shall we ever get out of this wood?"
19068When next time came, Hans''s mother said,"Where are you going, Hans?"
19068When next time came, Hans''s mother said,"Where to, Hans?"
19068When next time came,"Where to, Hans?"
19068When next time came,"Where to, Hans?"
19068When she came in he said to her,"Hast thou prayed in church?"
19068When that was done the sparrow said,"Dog, my brother, are you satisfied yet?"
19068When the cow was being milked, he cried out,"Strip, strap, strull, Will the pail soon be full?"
19068When the dog had devoured a second piece the sparrow asked,"Dog, my brother, are you satisfied now?"
19068When the father came home and sat down to table, he said,"Where is my son?"
19068When the miller saw the Little Farmer lying in the straw, he said,"What fellow have you got there?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068Where have you been?"
19068With that he began to eat, saying,"Marjory, what are you crying for?
19068Would you like to know who they were?
19068[ Illustration: THE GOLDEN BIRD"THE FOX SAID, NOW WHAT WILL YOU GIVE ME FOR MY REWARD?"]
19068cried Fred,"what have you done?
19068cried he,"what are you casting at me?"
19068cried one,"you giant Goliath, will you come with us to the treasure- chamber?
19068cried the miller, and he went to look, and found the wine, and then asked,"What next?"
19068cried they,"what beautiful child is this?"
19068have n''t you strength enough to hold such a weak sprig as that?"
19068how did you get out of the water?"
19068if you will buy them off,"answered the people;"but why should you spend your money in redeeming such worthless men?"
19068is it common in your family?"
19068is there a giant standing at the door ready to carry you away?"
19068said he;"shall I take of the gold enough to last me my life, or shall I go farther?"
19068said her mother,"what have you done?
19068said the man,"what is it that you do n''t want?
19068said the waggoner,"what harm can you do me, I should like to know?"
19068said the wife,"is not this beautiful?"
19068said they,"why should this great lord come here in time of peace?
19068shall I reap first, or eat first?
19068shall I reap first, or sleep first?
19068she said at first,"Are you called Jack?"
19068the evil has come to pass; what will become of us?"
19068thought she,"can it be that my poor children that he devoured for his evening meal are still alive?"
19068what do you mean?"
19068what have you been about, letting the sausage be carried off, and the beer run out of the cask, and then to waste all our good meal into the bargain?"
19068what poor little house do I see?
19068whatever can it mean?"
19068where am I?"
19068whose portrait is it?"
19068why couldst thou not leave the twelve flowers standing?
19068why not?
19068will you have all that is here?"
44924A little happier, my lambkin?
44924A_ what_, your majesty?
44924And what may that word be?
44924Are we not shamed by the words of this innocent? 44924 But how did she get in?"
44924But surely this be a long walk for such as ye?
44924But who is this powerful friend?
44924Dearest Zac,she said,"if you do not hate me can not you love me a little?
44924Didst thou not admit thy crime yesterday? 44924 Do you think I would be so base as to save my life upon such terms?"
44924Do you think I would brand Belinda''s own sisters as the tellers of a falsehood?
44924Eh, Jane? 44924 Father, what''s that?"
44924Have you got no tongue in your head, sir?
44924How do you know?
44924Is this our queen?
44924It is then in your house and by your daughter that I am thus treated? 44924 Jam, dear, did you say?"
44924Lord chamberlain, what had I better do?
44924Might we ask to rest awhile in your cottage, good friend?
44924My darling boy,she said,"what is the matter?
44924Never learned to play?
44924Not_ what_, boy?
44924Philip, my boy, why do not you answer your mother?
44924Rats in the barn, did you say, Jane?
44924Tell? 44924 The queen that was to share our throne, and it was to be''us''who would govern, was it not?
44924Then,rejoined the other,"why did you not deny it before the king?"
44924Well, my dear boy,began his mother directly,"have you found your tongue yet?"
44924Well, then,rejoined the king,"by what death shall he die?
44924What are they going to do with the crones, father?
44924What bold hussey is this who comes to meet her sovereign in common everyday garments? 44924 What do you mean by your mannikin impudence?
44924What has become of it?
44924What has happened, Stephen lad? 44924 What then am I to do?"
44924What time shall I call you to- morrow morning, master Philip?
44924What witchcraft has been going on? 44924 What''s the matter, missis?"
44924What?
44924Where_ have_ you been? 44924 Who calls Canetto?"
44924Who calls Canetto?
44924Who dares to talk of any one reigning here while Famcram lives? 44924 Who expected you to tell?
44924Who is it?
44924Who is this?
44924Who talks of letting loose adders in_ my_ country?
44924Who talks of letting loose adders in_ my_ country?
44924Why do n''t you speak, boy?
44924Your daughter?
44924_ Your_ country?
44924_ Your_ country?
44924( since no''Ma''you have got), Or a lover appeared when you''d rather he''d_ not_?
44924And then, where could he fly to, and how escape from the tyrant''s spies?
44924And what my sister''s name?''
44924Are you hurt?
44924Are you ill, or unhappy, or is''t for a freak That your godmother''s presence you suddenly seek?"
44924Art thou not guilty of the charge brought against thee by our daughters?"
44924But pray, what have you got in that basket, my pretty Minnikin?"
44924But where was the kitten?
44924Did you hear her mention the word''prince''just now in speaking of Zac?
44924Did you speak?"
44924Do you hear now?"
44924Gentlemen,"he continued, turning to his council,"what say you to the honey torture, and giving the wasps and bees and flies a treat?"
44924Has your''Pa''been unkind?
44924Have matters gone wrong since you wanted me last?
44924Have you any pain anywhere?"
44924Having no son of his own, why should not the future husband of one of his daughters be as a son to him?
44924How can I break my word and her heart?
44924How can you be such a fool?"
44924How could either weasel or magpie obtain access to a man and woman, or in any shape exercise an influence over their conduct and actions?
44924How did all this begin?
44924How do the fairy- rings come, I should like to know?
44924How she happen to be in woods?
44924If I stood firm where I was, what could I hope to do against ten men?
44924If not-- what reply can I make to you?
44924If so, why did she not kill and scalp me whilst I lay senseless on the ground?
44924If so-- why and whence the torrent of water, which had evidently not been relished by the inhabitants of the knoll?
44924Is it only Fancy?
44924Is she far from her home?
44924Lands, vassals, money-- what would he more?
44924Of what house and lineage dost thou come?"
44924Only how could I tell so many different stories if nobody told them to me first?
44924Philip caressed him, and as he did so, remarked to himself half aloud:"Pincher, old boy, why should not you and I have a ramble in the wood?"
44924Presently the good lady called out angrily,"How dare you pinch my arm, Tom?"
44924Say, dear child, sweet artless maid, Dost thou love the woodland shade?
44924Say, then, maiden, would''st thou seek Knowledge which an elf may speak?
44924Should she awaken him?
44924So she looked round once again, and then said, in her most polite tones:"Are there_ really_ any fairies here?"
44924The question was, how to do it?
44924Then Famcram broke forth in fury--"What sorcery is here?"
44924There was neither jealousy nor rivalry between them; and, indeed, why should there have been such at any period of time?
44924Was it impossible that the same power which had helped her before might again befriend her?
44924Was she_ quite_ satisfied with her master?
44924Was the Gray Man in league with the enemy, and had he thus lured poor Steenie to his destruction?
44924Was this one free from the disease?
44924Well, do you think he could keep his bullocks in the road, after that?
44924Well, do you think this east wind is a common, ordinary, respectable wind?
44924What better proof could be afforded of the high estimation in which dogs were held by men?
44924What did it mean?
44924What do you mean, hussey, by this shameful impudence?"
44924What drab is this whom I see beside me assuming a place as if she were queen?
44924What keeper would trust a cat to do the office of a retriever, and to watch the young birds?
44924What malapert conduct have we here?"
44924What on earth did it all mean?
44924What say you, Lord Pompous?"
44924What shall we do with him?
44924When was a cat employed to tend sheep?
44924Whence comes the name of"the Fairy Well"--not uncommon by any means?
44924Where my sister come from?
44924Where was she?
44924Where''s Tom?
44924Where''s the silver gravy spoon?"
44924Whither, then, would they fly?
44924Who are these over- dressed peacocks on every side?
44924Who has done it?"
44924Who said fire?"
44924Who was it?
44924Why are there not any fairies here?"
44924Why do n''t you speak?
44924Why not?
44924Why should not I make this happen?
44924Will none of ye stand by your king?"
44924With the fate of the Prime Minister and the Lord Chamberlain before his eyes, how could he possibly hope to escape?
44924Would it not be well to ask him why she could not yet accompany herself as she wished to do?
44924Would''st thou have another''s heart Made thine own by magic art?
44924Would''st thou in the forest dwell, Ever haunt the Fairy dell, Ever leave thy former self, And remain a woodland elf?
44924Would''st thou wealth-- or, better still, Freedom from some mortal ill?
44924Would''st thou( such I scarce suppose) Fairy succour''gainst thy foes?
44924Yet what was to be done?
44924You do n''t think me ugly, do you?"
44924Your mother my cousin?
44924_ He_ will not run, he-- why then should_ we_ do so?
44924_ You_ ban''t afraid of no witches nor crones neither, be you?"
44924_ You_ wo n''t run, will you, lad?
44924and how does John Gower the labourer have kittens to give away, I should like to know?
44924and how?
44924and what do you fear That you''ve called your affectionate godmother here?
44924exclaimed Zac,"do you come here pretending to be a friend of mine, and advise me to be false to Belinda and break my plighted word?
44924he cried loudly,"who is this that interferes with the King''s sentence?
44924he cried out;"what the dickens was that?
44924he cried,"who is this brazen- faced daughter of a demon who dares to come thus into our presence?"
44924he cried;"have you passed the night bewailing your sins, and making ready for the death which certainly awaits you?"
44924he shouted, as he came in,"why ar''t not out with the rest of us after the crones?
44924in what sad plight you are; My darling; has aught gone amiss with the jar?"
44924replied the crone;"going up to Farmer Long''s for father, are ye, my chickens?
44924she said a second time;"whither away so fast this afternoon?"
44924why should she have a husband at all?
4018All you say is very reasonable,said the old man,"but what kind of men will you consent to see?
4018And after the bear?
4018And what is it you have to ask of me?
4018Are you going to take this bird with you also?
4018Are you indeed Hohodemi, the grandson of Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess?
4018Are you indeed Ryn Jin, the King of the Sea, of whom I have so often heard?
4018Are you indeed the daughters of Ryn Jin, the King of the Sea? 4018 Are you ready?"
4018But how am I to get the monkey here? 4018 But next to you then, who is the strongest?"
4018But why?
4018But,said Urashima,"how is it possible for me to ride on your small back?"
4018By the bye,said the jelly fish,"have you ever seen the Palace of the Dragon King of the Sea where I live?"
4018Can you not see that for yourself? 4018 Can you still lie?
4018Can you tell me,asked Sentaro,"where the hermits live who have the Elixir of Life?"
4018Dare you answer me thus? 4018 Do you find it so disagreeable,"he asked,"in my house, that you can stay no longer?"
4018Do you mean to tell me that you ca n''t get the medicine here?
4018Do you really wish to go to the Island of Devils and fight with me?
4018Does n''t it lie by the door in the morning when your mistress begins the work of the day? 4018 Has anything happened while I have been away?"
4018Have you left your liver behind you?
4018How can I play a trick on a monkey? 4018 How can any of my people capture a monkey?"
4018How could she,they asked each other,"inflict such a heavy punishment for such a trifling offense as that of eating some rice- paste by mistake?"
4018How could you be so cruel? 4018 I do not understand how you can meet the soul of your lost mother by looking in this mirror?"
4018I will take this,said Watanabe,"and put it on the Gate of Rashomon, so to- morrow morning will you all go and look at it?
4018If it is in my power to do so I will,answered Hidesato,"but first tell me who you are?"
4018If only you could capture one of these monkeys?
4018Is it so beautiful as all that?
4018Is that really so? 4018 It is not like you, big devil, to beg for mercy, is it?
4018Mr. Monkey, tell me, have you such a thing as a liver with you?
4018Now tell me who is the strongest of all?
4018Now what is the best thing he can leave with us as a pledge?
4018Oh, mother,said Kintaro,"do n''t you know that I am the strongest?
4018Oh, why,said the Princess in distress,"must I do this?
4018Shall I go and dance before these demons and let them see what a human being can do? 4018 Tell me what it is you want for the Queen?"
4018That is the most important thing of all,said the stupid jelly fish,"so as soon as I recollected it, I asked you if you had yours with you?"
4018Then do you disbelieve what I say, and think that I am telling you a falsehood?
4018Then what can I do?
4018Then why are you always alone in your room these days? 4018 Then will you come again to- morrow, old man?"
4018Then you-- are-- my-- enemy?
4018There,said Kintaro,"what do you think of my bridge?
4018Well, Mr. Tortoise,said Urashima,"was it you who called my name just now?"
4018What are these creatures doing?
4018What are you doing alone in such a place?
4018What awful den have I come to in my travels? 4018 What do I hear?
4018What do you know about it?
4018What do you mean?
4018What do you say? 4018 What is it like?
4018What is the matter? 4018 What is the matter?--what have you done?"
4018What then?
4018Where are you going?
4018Where have you been all this time?
4018Where is your proof?
4018Who are you?
4018Who are you?
4018Why do you ask such an unnecessary question? 4018 Why do you come back so late?"
4018Why do you mock me?
4018Why is my liver so important to you?
4018Why should I pause, thou villain?
4018Why should we? 4018 Wo n''t he be very heavy?"
4018Yes, indeed,answered the tortoise,"and do n''t you think we have come very quickly?"
4018You are Hohodemi, the Augustness, sometimes called the Happy Hunter, are you not?
4018You silly old man,said she,"Why did you not bring the large box?
4018''Crack, crack''?"
4018A very bewildered expression came over the face of the man, and, still gazing intently on Urashima''s face, he said:"What?
4018And do you think he will see me?"
4018And now will you add one more favor to the rest and tell me what these jewels are and what I am to do with them?"
4018And so you have kept it all this time?
4018And then turning to her younger sister, she said:"Do you not think so, Tamayori?"
4018And what did he find?
4018And what is that that you have hidden in your sleeve?"
4018Are you Urashima Taro?"
4018Are you afraid of the sea?
4018Are you indeed Momotaro?
4018Are you indeed on your way to invade the Island of Devils?
4018As you have never seen the Palace of the Dragon King, wo n''t you avail yourself of this splendid opportunity by coming with me?
4018But what is the strange fear that seizes Urashima as he stands and looks about him?
4018But where are we most likely to find a monkey?"
4018But which was the way?
4018But who are you?"
4018But who was to lead the men?
4018Did n''t you hear what I said?
4018Did they not know that by doing so they plunged the world and all its people into uttermost darkness both day and night?
4018Did you ever see so many crocodiles?"
4018Did you ever see such a large peach in all your life?"
4018Do you dare to stop me?"
4018Do you know how hard a hermit''s life is?
4018Do you know who I am?
4018Do you think that you would ever have the patience or the endurance to live a hermit''s life?"
4018Do you think you can grant it to me?"
4018Do you wish to leave your old father and mother and go away from your old home?"
4018Has he now some disciples?"
4018Have you forgotten what I told you, that although she is your step- mother you must be obedient and loyal to her?
4018He stopped and spoke to them:"Who are you, and why do you weep?"
4018He thought for a little while and then said:"Has n''t your master a baby?"
4018Her father noting her confusion, and her act of hiding something, said in a severe manner:"Daughter, what are you doing here?
4018Horrid little bird, why did it eat all my starch?"
4018How is your life in danger here?"
4018How were they to cross the water and get to the Island of Devils?
4018However long he lived here, life would always be the same, so was it not foolish and wearisome to stay on here forever?
4018In answer to the old man''s inquiry, the wicked neighbor answered haughtily:"Have you come to ask me for your mortar?
4018Is it possible that that kind old woman is really the cannibal goblin?
4018Is it really true, what every one says, that you cut off one of the ogre''s arms?
4018Is n''t it a lovely day?"
4018Is n''t there any one amongst you all who can dance better than this fellow?"
4018Is not this the story of a great hero?
4018Is there nothing to be done?"
4018May I ask you to be so kind as to inquire of all your subjects if any of them have seen a fishing hook lost in the sea?"
4018Momotaro only laughed scornfully:"What is that you are saying?
4018Momotaro soon saw that they were daunted by the sight of the sea, and to try them he spoke loudly and roughly:"Why do you hesitate?
4018Mr. Tortoise, can you tell what that place is we can now see?"
4018Now wo n''t you give me the tortoise?
4018Now, why do you spend so much of your time before this mirror?"
4018Of what use is a monkey like you in battle?
4018One of the older boys answered:"Who cares whether it lives or dies?
4018Or had it transformed itself into this man, and what did the whole thing mean?
4018Perhaps you are his spirit come to revisit your old home?"
4018Please tell me who you are?"
4018She pointed to the reflection seriously:"Do you doubt me still?"
4018Since no one knows, what is the use of shutting myself up and brooding over the matter?
4018So he called her and said anxiously:"Where is Suzume San( Miss Sparrow) today?"
4018So with a loud voice he called to the crocodile, and said:"Oh, Mr. Crocodile, is n''t it a lovely day?"
4018Surely you are more than mortal?"
4018Tell me, do you think the number of your company is greater than mine?"
4018The Skillful Fisher listened in silence to his brother, and for a moment was thoughtful, but at last he answered:"O yes, why not?
4018The badger, hearing the crackle of the burning grass, asked,"What is that?"
4018The brigand raised himself fearfully and said:"Tell me from whence you come, and whom I have the honor of addressing?
4018The name of Momotaro?
4018The old woman pretended not to know at first, and answered:"Your sparrow?
4018The rabbit called out:"Why are you not out on such a beautiful day?
4018The wife was very bewildered and asked her husband:"Why do you wish me to send for the butcher?"
4018Then Otohime Sama began to weep, and said softly and sadly:"Is it not well with you here, Urashima, that you wish to leave me so soon?
4018Then the old woman said:"Do you suspect me of being a spy sent by the ogre?"
4018Then the woodcutter laughed and said:"It does not matter who I am yet, but let us see who has the strongest arm-- this boy or myself?"
4018Was it possible for the monkey to bear the weight of the mortar falling on him from the top of the gate?
4018Was it you, Mr. Hare?
4018What can have happened to them all this time?
4018What do you advise me to do?
4018What do you all say to a wrestling match?"
4018What do you say to this?"
4018What evil spirit has taken possession of your heart that you should be so wicked?
4018What has made you so disobedient and unfaithful?"
4018What hidden thing could be in that room that she did not wish him to see?
4018What is it that you have given me?"
4018What more can you demand?"
4018When he got to the pine- tree he raised his voice and said:"How do you do, Mr. Monkey?
4018Where are they?
4018Where had the dragon gone in such a short space of time?
4018Where has she come from?"
4018Where have my parents gone whom I left here?"
4018Where have you been all the time?"
4018Where have you come from and what is your name?"
4018Where is the haste?
4018Where is the tongue- cut sparrow''s house?"
4018Where?
4018Where?"
4018Wherever did you buy it?"
4018While I am alive it is right for you to remain as you are if you wish to do so, but some day I shall cease to be and who will take care of you then?
4018While these thoughts passed through his mind he had come up to the man on the bridge and now addressed him:"Was it you that called me just now?"
4018Who can have treated you so cruelly?"
4018Who could resist the pleading of so wise and compassionate a judge?
4018Who has ever heard of such a marvelous place?
4018Who is there to tell that I am the murderer?
4018Whose son can he be?
4018Why are you so impatient?"
4018Why do you men want so many boats?
4018Why does he gaze so fixedly at the people that pass him by, and why do they in turn stand and look at him?
4018Why does n''t he come?"
4018Will you allow me to go with you?"
4018Will you be so kind as to take me to your father?
4018Will you give me one of the cakes you are carrying?"
4018Will you not help me and kill my enemy the centipede?"
4018Will you not honor us by telling us who you are?"
4018Will you please pardon my rudeness?
4018Will you refuse to do as I wish?"
4018Will you try hunting in the mountains and I will go and fish in the sea?"
4018Wo n''t that do for you, my boys?"
4018Wo n''t you let me do that for you?
4018Wo n''t you stop and play with me a little while?"
4018Would it not be wise for us to make a change?
4018You have never seen the Sea King''s Palace?
4018You know monkeys do n''t swim?"
4018are you ready?"
4018asked Momotaro; and pushing aside the dog, he spoke to the monkey:"Who are you?"
4018cried the Sea King,"why did you not come in answer to my summons today?"
4018how could you so cruel?"
4018stop, you wicked man, why did you look into the forbidden room?"
38070Ah, no, my little girl, is that really the truth? 38070 And how are you going to manage that?"
38070And how is that?
38070And must you, also, lose your life, because you can not digest gold?
38070And what have you bought?
38070And what is that, is it liquorice?
38070And what may that be?
38070And where are they, these maidens? 38070 And where are you going?"
38070And who are you now?
38070And who are you really and truly?
38070And who are you?
38070And who are you?
38070Are you afraid?
38070Are you back already, master?
38070Are you not happy, since you need not strike?
38070Are you really so stupid as to believe that?
38070Are you, perhaps, the maiden he wanted to marry?
38070At what time does the princess ride to her dearest to- night?
38070Brother Paul gets a crust of bread when he lends out his frying- pan; but what am I to do with this wretched cat?
38070But at least may I not put a silken handkerchief between?
38070But do you know the thought that came to me?
38070But how will you go about it?
38070But in heaven''s name, to whom do all these beautiful cattle belong?
38070But in the name of heaven, to whom do all these horses belong?
38070But is it certain that no one can overhear us?
38070But is it certain that there is no one here who can overhear us?
38070But tell me, what ought I to choose among all these magnificent things? 38070 But to whom do all these sheep belong?"
38070But what are you doing here? 38070 But what did he do?"
38070But where are the two others?
38070But where are you? 38070 But where is Kari Woodencoat?"
38070But why do you dance in our wheat- field?
38070But you are not alone?
38070Ca n''t you see that it is running over?
38070Can I not follow you there?
38070Can not I go up?
38070Cats?
38070Could I not be this Halvor?
38070Could the fish have swallowed the ring?
38070Did you fetch the horse?
38070Did you go to the devil for the tribute?
38070Did you meet them?
38070Did you not bind yourself in your contract always to keep my ship tight and dry?
38070Do I get your daughter?
38070Do you happen to be the maiden the prince wanted to marry?
38070Do you see anything?
38070Do you see something now?
38070Do you see something now?
38070Do you see those black spots? 38070 Do you think I want a towel that you have touched with your dirty fingers?"
38070Do you think I want the water you are bringing me?
38070Do you think so?
38070Do you think there is any one who would pay all that money for such an arrant sinner''s sake?
38070Do you think you are fit to appear before people?
38070Do you want to sell it?
38070For heaven''s sake, are you back again?
38070For whom do you herd these horses?
38070Good day to you, father,said Isaac,"and do you know me?"
38070Good day, mother,said Esben,"and why are you worrying yourself so with your nose, you poor thing?"
38070Good- day, cat, is that you?
38070Handsomer? 38070 Hark, Lucky Andrew, do you know there will be a storm to- night?"
38070Has he a handsomer castle than this?
38070Have you any more work for me?
38070Have you cleaned out the stable?
38070Have you come, my boy?
38070Have you come, my boy?
38070Have you eaten your food?
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?
38070Have you seen my snakes, Per Gynt?
38070Have you, perhaps, the thing of which I was thinking?
38070How can you ask me?
38070How could I forget you?
38070How do you come to know him?
38070How is it the folk here have no cats?
38070How much do you want?
38070I do not know about that,said the young fellow,"you have trampled down the field so very badly; perhaps-- if I might choose and have one of you?"
38070I suppose you want to stay here overnight?
38070I took it away from him again without his having noticed it; but what are we to do if he is a master of such arts?
38070I would like to know where you keep your heart, since you do not have it about you?
38070If I help you now, will you marry me?
38070In heaven''s name, what has happened here?
38070Is dinner not ready yet?
38070Is dinner ready yet?
38070Is it certain that no one is listening to us? 38070 Is it really so biting?"
38070Is that all you want?
38070Is that the only price at which you will sell?
38070Let''s see who you may be? 38070 Master Girl?
38070May I draw the bow across the strings?
38070Must I go up to the city again because of this four- shilling piece? 38070 No more than that?"
38070No, can it really be you, Halvor?
38070Now in heaven''s name, what are you doing here?
38070Now is that worth while doing?
38070Now may God help you, how did you get in here?
38070Now who in the world can be the owner of so many goats?
38070Or do you happen to have done away with them?
38070To whom do the goats belong?
38070To whom do the sheep belong?
38070We have no such expensive soup at home,said the king''s son,"but the main thing is, how does it taste?"
38070Well, I suppose you have seen all sorts of beautiful things?
38070Well, and what am I to buy for it?
38070Well, are you here?
38070Well, well, so this is the girl?
38070Well, what am I to do now?
38070Well, what do you want for it, if you will not sell it either for gold or for money?
38070Well, what do you want?
38070Well, what has happened to you, my dear fellow?
38070What are you talking about? 38070 What can there be in it?"
38070What could that be?
38070What did you buy to- day?
38070What do the apples give one?
38070What do you mean by such tomfoolery?
38070What do you want for your golden apple?
38070What do you want?
38070What do you want?
38070What does it all mean?
38070What does it cost?
38070What does it cost?
38070What does it mean?
38070What have you in your bag, granny?
38070What have you in your basket to- day?
38070What have you in your basket?
38070What have you in your basket?
38070What is this country called?
38070What is your name?
38070What manner of care did you take of the golden shears I gave you yesterday, my friend?
38070What shall I do now?
38070What would have happened to me had you been as strong? 38070 Where are they?"
38070Where are you going?
38070Where did you put it?
38070Where do you want to go?
38070Where do you want to go?
38070Where do you want to go?
38070Where is my sound- toll? 38070 Who has touched my forest?"
38070Who has touched my forest?
38070Who has touched my forest?
38070Who is knocking at my door, and disturbing my sleep?
38070Who is knocking there at my door?
38070Who is thumping at my door?
38070Who is thumping at my door?
38070Why do n''t you eat out of the barrel of oats?
38070Why do you do that?
38070Why do you do that?
38070Why do you stand there fighting till the end of time?
38070Why do you weep?
38070Why, you are a splendid workman,said the king,"but tell me, how much do you really eat at once,"he continued,"for I am sure you are hungry?"
38070Will you never make an end of your shoeing?
38070With your Master Girl?
38070Wo n''t she come back home to us?
38070Wo n''t you build me the pen now, the one I have so often, often asked you for?
38070Would you like to have some cake, little white cat?
38070Would you like to know?
38070Yes, but have you plenty of money?
38070Yes, but how are you going to manage it?
38070You are sitting here in all your glory, just like a bride?
38070You fool,said the woman,"do you think a stone can freeze?
38070You have picked up the stones in the field?
38070You kill twelve of my people, and you eat for twelve times twelve of them, but how many men''s work can you do?
38070You moon, you moon,she cried,"can you tell me the way to Soria- Moria Castle?"
38070After he had slept a couple of hours longer, he once more began to move about and stretch:"Is dinner still not ready?"
38070After they had gone a good way, the white bear asked:"Are you afraid?"
38070And then, as she ran up the stairs, her wooden coat clattered so loudly that the prince came out and asked:"And who are you?"
38070Are you a neighbor of mine?"
38070But do you see that white mare over yonder?"
38070But if he cooks gold here, I wonder what he cooks inside, there?"
38070But she was very sad, and said to him:"Why did you not follow my advice and listen to your father?
38070But the others laughed at her and cried;"What do you want to do there?
38070But what do you want of Trouble and Care?
38070But what do you want of Trouble and Care?
38070But what has become of the other troll?"
38070Ca n''t you see me?
38070Can you tell me the way to Soria- Moria Castle?
38070Do I get her now?"
38070Do I get your daughter now?"
38070Do n''t you want us to reef that last bit of sail this very minute?"
38070Do you know what powers it has?"
38070Do you think the prince will have anything to do with you, homely as you are?"
38070Do you think, dear friend, that he will be able to bring it to me?"
38070For surely that will be permitted me?"
38070Have you already had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you had anything to eat yet to- day?"
38070Have you lost your wits?"
38070Is this, perhaps, the princess who wanted to marry him?"
38070Is this, perhaps, the princess who wanted to marry him?"
38070Or would you like to change with me?
38070That very moment the wood was alive with dwarfs, all of them asking with one voice:"What are my lord''s commands?
38070That will not do, for what shall I ride on then?"
38070We have no wives?"
38070What am I doing with the horses and the coach?"
38070What am I to do with my cattle then?"
38070What are my lord''s commands?"
38070What could be more human and moving than the tragic"The Player on the Jew''s- Harp,"or more genuinely entertaining than"The King''s Hares"?
38070What is a Master Girl?"
38070When he came up into his room, and told what she had said and done, his comrade asked:"And have you still the ball of gold twine?"
38070Where are they, these maidens?
38070Where are they, where are they?"
38070Where did you speak to her?"
38070Where is the soul?"
38070he cried out of the window; and when the maiden came in he said:"Do you think you can wash this shirt clean for me?"
29672After my death you shall have everything, but I wo n''t give it you now, for who knows what may happen? 29672 But wherefore?"
29672But why off so soon?
29672Dear little lady, sweet little lady, what are thy commands?
29672Do n''t you know that I only am your father and tsar, and have the right to carry you away?
29672Dost think I only made the exchange for a single day? 29672 Dost thou recognize thy son?"
29672Dost thou see that accursed pig that leads the others? 29672 For such and such a reason,"said he;"dost thou not see that I am ruined?"
29672Have a lad and a lass passed by this way?
29672How can a man pass a tavern without going into it?
29672How can such a slut become the consort of the Tsar''s son?
29672How durst thou read such and such passages to me?
29672How shall we manage to live with so little?
29672I wonder what the princess has done to him?
29672Is it thou, O prince, who art feeding swine? 29672 Is that thy falcon?"
29672Is that thy greyhound?
29672Is the dinner ready?
29672Nay, but tell me, darling,quoth she,"wherein doth thy strength lie?"
29672Nay, my dear love,cried she,"wherefore dost thou burst into tears?
29672Now that I can not see the white world,said he,"how can I see a black book?
29672Now, did I not bid thee tell not thy wife the truth for seven years?
29672Or what wrong hath he done thee, that thou shouldst seek him out so doggedly?
29672Say,cried he,"what hast thou done with my brother?"
29672Shall we find him reading prayers, or shall we only find his bones?
29672There are lots of bushes, but where are the berries? 29672 Thou son of a dog,"he shouted, before the house,"why hast thou not brought me back my money?
29672Well, dost thou know thy son again?
29672Well,said the lady,"hast thou eaten thy fill?"
29672What am I to do now?
29672What dost thou ask for it?
29672What dost thou want here, Ivan?
29672What hast thou done, thou son of Satan?
29672What is he doing here?
29672What is the meaning of all this?
29672What is this fellow that thou hast taken to thyself? 29672 What is this wonder?"
29672What is this, little mother?
29672What would I make of them, dear father? 29672 When did he fly to thee?"
29672Where on earth has he been feeding them?
29672Where''s the ring?
29672Who are you?
29672Who art thou, prythee?
29672Whom have you been listening to?
29672Why do you do that?
29672Why dost thou call us, O Ivan Golik?
29672Why should I not call you? 29672 Why should I not weep, seeing the task that the serpent has given me is impossible?"
29672Why should we keep this fool for ever,said they,"and waste the Tsar''s bread upon him?"
29672Why, what is this, good man?
29672Why, what''s the meaning of this?
29672Will you let me pass the night here, good people?
29672Wilt thou be my bride?
29672--"''Tis a good dog; wilt sell it to us?"
29672--"A place for a hut, eh?
29672--"And what dost thou feel now?"
29672--"And what dost thou want, O man?"
29672--"But dost thou know how to play upon a fife?"
29672--"But what will this silly donkey do with his millstone?"
29672--"But who will stand surety for thee?"
29672--"But, dear little humble- bumble- bee, if a horse could n''t save us, how will you?"
29672--"But, my good man, when didst thou ever see them sell a horse without a halter?
29672--"Dost think I want to buy anything from thee?"
29672--"Hast thou sewn the shirts?"
29672--"How canst thou say that when thou didst call me?"
29672--"How hast thou found thy way hither?"
29672--"How is it possible for me to marry?"
29672--"How shall I carry thee?"
29672--"How so?"
29672--"I am going to seek the Wind,"said he;"what dost thou say to that?"
29672--"I have not,"said the man.--"Thou hast not?
29672--"Let me see, what have I got?"
29672--"Nay, but,"said the man,"what if some evil befall me?"
29672--"Nay, but,"said the simpleton,"what if she tear me to pieces too?
29672--"No matter,"said they;"where is she?"
29672--"That will I, gladly,"said Ivan.--"How much wages dost thou want by the year then?"
29672--"Then I have taught thee sense, eh?"
29672--"Then why didst thou not tell me before, my daughter?"
29672--"Thy own,"said the Jews;"what dost thou mean?"
29672--"Very good,"she replied;"invite him, but dost thou think he''ll come?"
29672--"Was it long ago?"
29672--"Well, and suppose I did lie?"
29672--"What do I mean?"
29672--"What do I want with your brandy?"
29672--"What do we want with_ thy_ halter?
29672--"What dost thou require?"
29672--"What dost thou want for it?"
29672--"What dost thou want with the Wind?"
29672--"What hast thou done?"
29672--"What is it, pray?"
29672--"What is that to thee, thou dog?"
29672--"What may thine errand be?"
29672--"What mischief has it done thee?"
29672--"What ram?
29672--"What sort is it, then?"
29672--"What task is that?"
29672--"What task is that?"
29672--"What tavern dost thou mean?"
29672--"What wrong hath he done me?"
29672--"What''s the matter with thee?"
29672--"What''s the use of giving thee anything?"
29672--"What''s to be done?"
29672--"Wherefore, my son?"
29672--"Whither doth God lead thee?"
29672--"Why didst thou not tear that old man and the wheat to pieces?"
29672--"Why didst thou not tear the black monk to pieces and pull down the monastery?
29672--"Why should I not weep?"
29672--"Why should I not weep?"
29672--"Why should I_ not_ weep,"she said,"when they want to kill thee?"
29672--"Why should n''t he?"
29672--"Why shouldst thou go?"
29672--"Why spread a cloth?"
29672--"Why, dost thou not know?"
29672--"Yes, but you changed them,"said the man.--"What dost thou mean by changed?"
29672--And he said,"How can I help weeping?
29672--And his eldest brother said to him,"I know not, and who does know?
29672--And the archer replied,"What_ can_ I give?"
29672--And the eagle''s father said to him,"What good will such a thing do thee?
29672--At that moment an old she- dragon came up to him and said,"What wilt thou give me, O man, if I chase this ox back again into the egg for thee?"
29672--At this the rich brother quite lost his temper, and cried to his wife and children,"Why do you stand staring like that?
29672--But she replied,"How can I be thy foe when we two live all alone together in a strange land?"
29672--But the wife cried,"Why dost thou bring that ram inside the hut, ca n''t it stay outside the walls?"
29672--The nobleman looked at him, and seeing that he was comely and stalwart,"Why not?
29672--Then Tremsin went out to his horse and fell a- weeping.--"Wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672--Then he kissed her once, and she wound herself round a branch of a tree and asked him,"What dost thou feel within thee?"
29672--Then the Devil cried to the gimlet,"Gimlet, gimlet, where has the Tsar hidden his children?"
29672--Then the girl replied,"Why didst thou not lay hold of her?
29672--Then the hen- dove said to him again,"And hast thou forgotten how we two went together in search of the golden hare?
29672--Then they asked him,"Hast thou seen our son?
29672--Then they asked,"Hast thou smelt out anything of our poor youngster?
29672--What was the poor man to do?
29672A moment afterward the son of the Mother of the Winds came flying up, and he smelt out the bride, and said,"What''s this, mother?
29672A tsardom, or great riches, or a good wife?
29672Again the eagle asked him,"How dost thou feel?"
29672And Tremsin entered the house of this nobleman and said,"Sir, may I not take service with thee as a labourer?"
29672And he asked him, saying,"Tell me, now, which is the best gift to ask of God: a tsardom, or great riches, or a good wife?"
29672And he asked them,"Do ye know by which way I can get to the capital?"
29672And he said to them,"Why do ye weep, and why are all your houses hung with black?"
29672And his sister said to him,"Tell me, why dost thou keep these big dogs?
29672And the Tsar asked her, saying,"Wherefore art thou so sorrowful?"
29672And the Tsar said to her,"Wilt thou be my son''s bride or not?"
29672And the Tsar said to him,"Wilt thou enter my service?"
29672And the bear said to him,"Tell me, daddy, what are you sharpening your knife for?"
29672And the eagle said to the archer,"Go to my house, and when they ask thee,''Hast thou not seen our poor child?''
29672And the girl asked him,"Why art thou weeping?"
29672And the horse said to him,"Did I not tell thee that grievous woe would come upon thee if thou didst pick up that feather?"
29672And the serpent came and said to her,"How didst thou manage to jump over the sea?"
29672And the wolf asked him,"Daddy, what are you sharpening your knife for?"
29672And the youth said to himself,"Why should I not pick up the feather when it shines so brightly even from afar?"
29672And they began to ask each other,"Dost_ thou_ know her?
29672And they feasted and fired guns, and what else did they not do?
29672And they proclaimed throughout the kingdom,"Who has lost a pair of golden slippers?"
29672And wouldst thou then read everything that is written?
29672Are there no barns outside where thou mayst put it up?"
29672At last he cried out to the stove,"Stove, stove, where has the Tsar hidden his children?"
29672At last the armless one said,"What is the use of our quarrelling?
29672But Ivan Golik saw that he was weeping, and said to him,"Why dost thou weep, O prince?"
29672But he said to her,"Be not angry, but tell me, now, wherefore art thou so yellow?"
29672But his sister burst into tears and said,"Why dost thou keep such monstrous dogs?
29672But his sister fell a- weeping, and said,"Why dost thou keep such monstrous dogs?"
29672But his sister ran out and said,"What art thou playing up there for?
29672But his wife caressed and wheedled him again, and said,"Nay, but tell me, wherein doth thy strength lie?"
29672But the father said,"Oh, fool, fool, wherefore shouldst thou go?
29672But the heifer came up to her and said,"Tell me, little maiden, wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672But the serpent said to the prince,"Well, which of my daughters dost thou think the loveliest?"
29672But there too he did not remain long, but ran away home again, so what was that poor father to do?
29672But what could they do?
29672But what was he to do?
29672Ca n''t you come and help me to pitch this insolent rogue out of the house?"
29672Canst thou not tell me then, dear father, how I may recover my son?"
29672Did I not bid thee,''Tell not thy wife the truth for seven years''?"
29672Did I not give thee a sack?
29672Did nothing come out then?"
29672Does any one know where this man comes from?
29672Dost hear?"
29672Dost thou not see the morning light?"
29672Dost thou want a tsardom, or great riches?
29672Dost_ thou_ know her?"
29672Fools are neither sown nor reaped, but grow of their own accord-- hast thou not been into a tavern?"
29672Furthermore the father said,"What shall we do now, my son?
29672Has any of thy servants perchance found this precious ring?"
29672Has thy plough broken, or thy oxen failed thee?
29672Hast thou forgotten me then altogether?"
29672Have I not brought it all home and threshed it for thee, and set everything in order?
29672He saluted them, and then went on to the daughters, and said, as he drew off the ring,"To which of you does this belong?"
29672His brothers heard the sound, came running up, were quite amazed to see a dead boar lying there, and said,"What will become of us now?"
29672His father and mother fretted sorely because of him, and said,"What are we to do with thee, O son?
29672How long he slept there, who can tell?
29672How then can one lead him off?"
29672I am poor and thou art poor: hast thou served these three years and earned nothing?"
29672I have come hither to invite thee to us, thee and thy wife."--"Wherefore?"
29672I''ll turn myself into standing wheat and thee into an old man guarding me, and if he ask thee,''Hast thou seen a lad and a lass pass by this way?''
29672Immediately afterward her son, the Sun, came flying up, and he said,"Why, what is this, little mother?
29672Is it perchance some princess or some queen?
29672Is it thy standing corn thou art grieved about?
29672It was no great terror to him to die for the faith, but what would become of his wife and children?
29672Ivan Golik perceived it, and said to him,"Wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672Maybe he had been a whole year in the whale without knowing it, and he thought to himself,"How shall I now manage to live in the wide, wide world?"
29672Moreover, from my youth upward I have never learnt my letters; how shall I begin to do so now?
29672Now one day he took his little son in his arms, and said,"Is there anything in the wide world that I like better than this child?"
29672Now what shall I do to repair my crazy hut?
29672On and on they tramped along the road, but the Unlucky Days clung on to the man behind, and said,"Why dost thou not take us with thee?
29672Or art thou so delighted that such children have been born unto thee that thou canst not find thy voice for tears of joy?"
29672Or, perchance, the desire of thy heart is a good wife?
29672Perchance thou hast watered them with foul water, so that their blood is stagnant, and their flesh inflamed?"
29672Shall I slay it, or shall I not slay it?"
29672Shall we never be able to destroy him?
29672Shortly after they came to examine him, and asked him,"Whence art thou?"
29672So Ivan returned without the overseer, and the nobleman said to him,"Where''s my overseer?"
29672So he went and lay outside the fence, and a wolf came up to him and said,"Doggy, why so down in the mouth?"
29672So he went home and greeted them all, and as he did so he thought to himself,"Why should I not greet my uncle''s daughter like the rest of them?
29672So he went up and said to the elder brother,"Tell me, uncle, what shall I ask of God?
29672So his father and mother grieved over him for many a long day, and at last his mother said to his father,"What is to be done with our son?
29672So now, too, he began to laugh at the young Tsarevich and say to him,"I know how to find out who this fine lady is."--"How?"
29672So she crept into the hole again and began to beat for game, and out came an old woman, who said to the youth,"What art thou poking about there for?"
29672So the General went and said to him,"Come, why do n''t you marry?
29672So the Tsarevko and the Tsarivna lived a long time together in happiness, but one day she asked him,"What of thy kindred and thy father''s house?"
29672So the man came to the Wind for the third time and said,"Wilt thou tell me, please, if thou art really the Wind or no?"
29672So they went and rested, and the old woman came out of the hut to them.--"Hast thou a daughter, little mother?"
29672So when he came thither and fell a- weeping, she asked him,"Wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672Soon afterward the dragon came flying past, and asked the monk,"Hast thou seen a lad and a lass pass by this way?"
29672Suddenly St Peter appeared to him and said,"What art thou doing, good man?"
29672Tell me, in God''s name, why such things be?
29672Tell me, which of the three is the best gift to ask for?"
29672The Jew who kept the tavern immediately said to him,"What dost thou want, good man?"
29672The Tsar went out to him and said,"What dost thou want, old man?"
29672The heifer came to her and said,"Tell me, dear little maiden, wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672The man did not want to sit on him, but what could he do?
29672The moment he saw Ivan Golik he sprang to his feet, and said,"Hast thou the ring?"
29672The next morning he awoke out of his drugged sleep, and said to himself,"Why, what is this?
29672The prince looked at the trees, and said to his eldest son,"My dear son, what wouldst thou make of those trees?"
29672The servant stood there in amazement, and he thought to himself,"However in God''s world shall I be able to drive all these cattle back again?"
29672Then I thought to myself,''Why should he do this?''
29672Then St Peter drew forth a little fife from his bosom and gave it to him, and took away the incense, and who can say where he went with it?
29672Then Tremsin went to his faithful steed and wept bitterly, and the horse said to him,"Wherefore dost thou weep?"
29672Then all the courtiers hailed him as the Tsar, but he said,"Where is that damsel who was here just now?"
29672Then an angel flew down to him, and said,"Oh, thou that hast offered this sweet- smelling sacrifice to God, what dost thou want for thine own self?
29672Then he again went to the fence and wept, and the maiden said to him,"Why dost thou weep?"
29672Then he asked her again,"Art thou ill?"
29672Then he asked him in the most friendly manner,"Whence hath God brought thee hither, good man?"
29672Then he asked his younger son,"And what wouldst thou make out of these oaks, my son?"
29672Then he bethought him, and said,"Was ever the like of this known?
29672Then he kissed the Serpent for the last time, and she said to him,"What dost thou feel now?"
29672Then she kissed him again, and at last he awoke and started up, and said,"Who''s that?"
29672Then still statelier dames stepped forth from the willow- tree,"Dear little lady, sweet little lady, what commands hast thou to give?"
29672Then the Tsar asked her,"Dost thou love this youth?"
29672Then the Wind asked,"Wherefore hast thou come hither, O man?
29672Then the father was very grieved for a time, but what could he do?
29672Then the man thought to himself,"What shall I do?
29672Then the mice assembled round them in their hosts:"Why dost thou whistle, and what dost thou want of us, O Ivan Golik?"
29672Then the people began to whisper,"Is there none here who knows her?
29672Then the prince said,"Did I not tell you?
29672Then the thrice- lovely Nastasia will appear and say,''What for thy wares?''
29672Then they said,"Tell us, little mother, where is thy other daughter?"
29672Then those servants were filled with envy, and said among themselves,"How can we remove this fellow from the world?
29672They had not had the sack and the ram very long when they grew very rich, and then the husband said to the wife,"I tell thee what, wife!"--"What?"
29672They went on and on, and his father said to him,"What use is this money to us after all?
29672They went on and on, until the foal said again,"Look behind, is Wednesday still pursuing?"
29672Was ever the like of it known before?"
29672What could he do?
29672What manner of beast was it?"
29672What more dost thou want?"
29672What sack?"
29672What was to be done?
29672What was to be done?
29672When the Muscovite saw her he said,"What sort of a little beast is this?
29672Where shall we get the money to find food for it?
29672Which of you will be kind to your old father-- for money?''"
29672While he was thus abusing St Michael, a young fellow about twenty years old came along that way, and said to him,"What art thou doing, my father?"
29672Who can tell whence it sprung?"
29672Who is he, and whence?
29672Who is it?
29672Why didst thou not listen to me when I told thee not to go into the tavern, eh?"
29672Why dost thou get so drunk that thou dost not know how to open a door?
29672Why should I not go?"
29672Why wilt thou lie?"
29672Wilt thou not take five hundred with the halter?"
29672[ 29] Who art thou?"
29672[ 4] A_ grivna_ is the tenth part of a rouble, about 2- 1/2 d.[ Illustration:"HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR THAT HORSE?"]
29672and was I to put myself to shame by touching a bow that one of my servants can draw?"
29672asked the Wind.--"I''ll tell thee what''s the matter,"said the man;"why hast thou laughed at and mocked me and made such a fool of me?"
29672asked the faithful steed.--"Wherefore should I not weep?"
29672asked the father.--"I am Oh, the Tsar of the Woods,"replied the old man;"why didst thou call me, I say?"
29672asked the little old man.--"Who art thou, then?"
29672asked the wife.--"Why?"
29672cried he, with a snort,"you''ve come to grief again, eh?
29672cried the man in a rage.--"Then for what hast thou come hither?"
29672did you not say you would bring out a_ horse_?
29672do n''t you see?
29672from behind the dark wood, from the back of the huge pines, a grey wolf came rushing out upon the ox and said,"Who are you?
29672has nothing come out?"
29672hast thou not caught them or met them on the road?"
29672hast thou not got the hare?
29672how can I do such a thing?"
29672little Tsar Novishny; art thou here by thy leave or against thy leave?"
29672no passport?
29672replied the man.--"Whither art thou going?"
29672replied the man;"what has it got to do with you?
29672replied the rich man,"why hast thou come hither?
29672said Protius.--"But what shall we do next?"
29672said he,"how can I cut down the fairest ornament of my garden?"
29672said he,"what''s the good of an ox of that sort?"
29672said he;"was there ever any one like him?
29672said she;"what shall we do?
29672said the bear,"stuffed with straw and trimmed with tar, are you?
29672said the wife,"what good can we get from that wretched ram?
29672said they.--"Yes, that I have,"said she.--"One or two?"
29672said they;"we have wares to sell, but what hast thou?"
29672said they;"who art thou?"
29672take a slattern like that?
29672that thou bringest that little ram into the room?
29672thou didst not call me when thou saidst''Oh''?"
29672thou dost presume to teach me?
29672thou that art so unlucky, why dost thou not go to the Tsar?
29672thundered the old father as he lay there on the floor and turned round on the other ear;"why didst thou not hold fast what I gave thee?
29672trimmed with tar, are you?
29672what dost thou want for that horse?"
29672what shall I do?
29672what was that?
29672whither dost thou go, and what dost thou seek?"
29672whose field is this, the rich man''s or the poor man''s?"
29672why should I not weep?
29672wilt enter my service?"
8653Almost as pretty as when the parson preaches in church, but can you stand on one leg and wink both your eyes at once? 8653 And are you so full of fun that you carry a fiddle about with you?"
8653And now, what strange thing was it you saw up yonder on the hillside?
8653And so you doubt it?
8653And what is it now?
8653And, pray what''s the meaning of all this foolishness?
8653And, pray, what is the meaning of all this? 8653 Are they?"
8653Are you afraid?
8653Art thou come into the pit at last, Reynard?
8653But where shall I ever get thistledown enough for so many shirts?
8653But whither was it that I rolled you that you got all this wealth?
8653But who can it be?
8653But, master, how can I?
8653Ca n''t you befool me now?
8653Ca n''t you go home and fetch them?
8653Can you wash the shirt clean, lassie?
8653Dear, what do you want with that? 8653 Do n''t you know,"said the clerk,"that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and he does it just nicely in a day?"
8653Good day,said the sheriff,"but when was I ever your master?"
8653Good- day, good sirs, and whither away so fast to- day?
8653Good- day, good sirs,said the cock,"whither are you going to- day, gentlemen?"
8653Good- day, good sirs,she said,"how far are you trotting to- day?"
8653Good- day,said the sheep,"do you know why it is you are so well off, and why it is they fatten you and take such pains with you?"
8653Have you got her with you?
8653Heigh, there, what do you want?
8653Here I sit, sure enough,said Peik;"where else should I sit?"
8653How can I help believing it, when you say it?
8653How can you be so silly as to believe any such thing?
8653How is that?
8653How, now,said the king;"have you the golden apple?
8653I have heard you crowing so nicely, but can you stand on one leg and crow, and wink your eyes?
8653Now, you think you''ll wear out my soul, do n''t you?
8653Oh yes,said Little Freddy,"do n''t you remember how I served you three years for three pence?"
8653Oh, what is the use of that? 8653 Oh,"said the cock,"what would you do without a cock?
8653So you lie here, and trickle and run down all alone?
8653So you stand here all alone and hew, do you?
8653So you stand here all alone, and dig and delve, do you?
8653Tell me first,said the king,"how far the east is from the west?"
8653Thank you, thank you, with all my heart,cried his wife,"what should I do with a sheep?
8653That''s good, I may bake my crow there, then?
8653Well, are you there?
8653Well, now,said Peter and Paul,"have you found out where the water comes from?
8653Well, well, what did you find this time?
8653Well, what do you want for it?
8653Well, what was it, so rare and strange,said Peter and Paul,"that you saw up there at the top of the rock?"
8653Well,said the owner of the house,"how did things go with you in town?"
8653What do you want for that pot?
8653What have you done?
8653What have you found now?
8653What is that you have there?
8653What is that you say?
8653What shall we have to live on when you have wasted everything?
8653What thing is that?
8653What will you take to roll me down the same way?
8653What wonder is it, pray, that a wood cutter should stand and hack up on a hillside?
8653What''s all this about?
8653Where did you get those?
8653Where is that Peik?
8653Where''s Peik?
8653Wherever in the world have you been?
8653Why not?
8653Will you give me your youngest daughter? 8653 Would n''t it boil?"
8653_ Who is that tripping over my bridge_?
8653_ Who''s that tramping on my bridge?_roared the Troll.
8653_ Who''s that tripping over my bridge?_roared the Troll.
8653And one day she said to her daughter,"Why are you so sorrowful, lassie mine?
8653Are you sitting there, Peik?"
8653Art thou, too, sitting in this room, thou horse killer?
8653But he did not care a bit for that; up he climbed, and when he got near the top, what do you think he saw?
8653But still the lassie had no peace of mind, for one thing she wished to know: Who it was who came in the night and slept in her room?
8653But the old lass cried out,"Canst thou not sit still, thou whirligig thief, and not go twisting and turning?
8653But what became of the light?
8653Can you do that?"
8653Can you kill folk and blow life into them again?
8653Do you see that magpie yonder, sitting in the spruce fir?
8653Have I won the hundred crowns?"
8653Have you never heard how water rises from a spring in the earth?"
8653I am always killing every one I come near; do n''t you know I have a terrible temper?"
8653Is there anything you want?
8653May I go with you?"
8653Now I think it over, what should I do with a pig?
8653On he went, up and up, and the brook got smaller and smaller, and at last, a little way farther on, what do you think he saw?
8653One day the White Bear came to her and said:"Lassie, why are you so sorrowful?
8653So when they had gone a bit of the way, the White Bear said,"Are you afraid?"
8653That''s she, is it?"
8653Then Gudbrand opened the door and said,--"Well, what do you say now?
8653Then she asked if she might n''t go with him?
8653Was it not true that he neither knew anything nor could do anything?
8653What could you do with them?"
8653What do we want with a goat?
8653What do we want with a horse?
8653What do you want with that?"
8653What do you want with that?"
8653What do you want?"
8653What is it now?"
8653What should we do with a goose?
8653What should we do with the cock?
8653What will you give me if I hit it as we stand here?"
8653What would you do with that?"
8653When Peik came to the King''s palace, there stood the King in the porch, and as soon as he set eyes on the lad he said,"Whither away, to- day, Peik?"
8653Where else should I sit?"
8653Who could it be but the Princess?
8653Wo n''t you stop?
8653You sitting here, you, Peik?"
8653and he turned to his brother and said,"But where in the world did you get all this wealth?"
8653is that you?
8653said Boots to himself;"it''s you that gobbles up our hay, is it?"
8653said Peik,"how could I get on at all if I could n''t?
8653said the king,"but tell me now what you think I am worth, as you see me stand here?"
8653said the king,"but, as you are so wise, perhaps you can tell me what I am thinking about now?"
8653said the lad to himself,"it''s you, is it, that comes here eating up our hay?
8653said the pig,"and what is there to be done about it?"
8653said the pig,"but how can you help us build a house?"
8653said the sheriff,"you have grown rich in a hurry, and pray, how was it that you got to be such a fine gentleman?"
8653she called out, and came running out with the ladle of porridge in her fist,"Give me leave to pet that pretty bird of yours''?"
8653thought she,"is that what they are up to?"
8653thought the lad;"it''s you, is it, that eats up our hay?"
8653whence have you come?"
33571''Am I not here?''
33571''And did you make any good bargain yourself?''
33571''And how am I to travel such a distance?''
33571''And what bargain did you drive there?''
33571''And what did you buy there?''
33571''And what do you mean to do?''
33571''And what have you made up your mind to do?''
33571''And what may you be wanting, Gossip?''
33571''And when will that be?''
33571''And why not?''
33571''And with whom do you accuse me of intriguing, Madam?''
33571''And you, Whitey?''
33571''Are you in earnest, or only joking?''
33571''But the instant breakfast was over they began again their cuckoo- cry of"What will you do?"
33571''But what can I have to eat?''
33571''But where can his eyes be,''said the Prince,''that your beauty makes no impression upon him?
33571''But where is the youngest?
33571''Coachman, what''s the meaning of all this grief?''
33571''Come, my good youth,''said the old dame, when he had finished his tale of woe,''is n''t the world wide enough?
33571''Dear Seagull, will you have me for a husband?''
33571''Dear me,''thought he,''what a stupid fool I must be-- can''t even crack a nut,''and he said to the tailor,''I say, crack my nuts for me, will you?''
33571''Did n''t I tell you what it would be?''
33571''Did n''t she know me?''
33571''Did not I tell you, my father, that salt was the best thing in life?
33571''Did the Princess come?''
33571''Did things go pretty cheap?''
33571''Did you see no one pass by on horseback, reverend father?''
33571''Did you wish nothing from him?''
33571''Do n''t you think we had better take a nap?
33571''Do you know,''asked the King,''what you have to promise?''
33571''Do you think I have nothing to do but to waste my time on such trifles?
33571''Does she really mean to marry me,''he thought to himself,''or is she only trying to deceive me again?''
33571''Go if you like, you idiot; but what good will it do you?''
33571''Has not your bride, Turritella, just visited me, wearing the royal mantle and the diamond crown you gave her?
33571''Have I not been your prisoner these two years, and who have I seen except the gaolers sent by you?''
33571''Have I not reason to cry?''
33571''Have you altered your mind, then?''
33571''Have you gone raving mad, Blackie?''
33571''Have you seen a stag and some deerhounds go by?''
33571''Her cruel stepmother may have married her to someone else before I am myself again, and then what good will life be to me?''
33571''How can I help being sad?
33571''How can I help being sad?
33571''How comes our enemy here?
33571''How did you get here?''
33571''How did you get the ring which was in the soup?''
33571''How much are they?''
33571''Husband,''said his wife,''have you caught nothing to- day?''
33571''Husband,''said she,''why are you standing there?
33571''I''m minding my pigs and donkeys; but what do you want?''
33571''If he did hear me,''she said,''could he remain so cruelly indifferent?
33571''If he loves me truly,''she used to say,''what use would life be to him then?''
33571''Is it possible that Prince Featherhead can have parted with it?''
33571''Is it possible that you really bought that beast for a mule?''
33571''Is that true?''
33571''My friends,''called out Simon to them,''what do you accuse me of?
33571''My portrait?''
33571''No,''said the man;''what should I have wished from him?''
33571''Oh, my poor friend,''cried the rascal,''do n''t you see that is a donkey and not a mule?
33571''See,''said the wife,''is n''t this nice?''
33571''That can not possibly be,''replied the King;''how do you mean to prove that?''
33571''That''s just where it is,''sighed the Caliph, whose wings drooped in a dejected manner;''how do you know she is young and lovely?
33571''The Porcelain Maiden and the Golden Blackbird know you too?''
33571''Then what am I to do?''
33571''Well, what does she want now?''
33571''Well, what does she want now?''
33571''Well, what is there to be done?
33571''What King?''
33571''What are you afraid of?''
33571''What are you crying for, my friend?''
33571''What can I do with them?''
33571''What can be the reason for keeping that lovely Princess a prisoner?''
33571''What do I see?''
33571''What do you mean?''
33571''What do you want?''
33571''What does she want now?''
33571''What does she want now?''
33571''What does she want now?''
33571''What dost thou want?''
33571''What have you done?''
33571''What is the use of our all crowding each other up in this poky little place?''
33571''What is this?''
33571''What is to be done next?''
33571''What is your name?''
33571''What must I do?''
33571''What shall we do?
33571''What will they add?''
33571''What_ do_ you know, if I may ask?''
33571''Where are you?
33571''Where have you been?''
33571''Which mule?''
33571''Who are you, I should like to know, that you dare to call me a scold?
33571''Who are you, and how dare you come near my high- mightiness, upon my golden throne?''
33571''Who are you, and what do you want?''
33571''Who are you, in the name of wonder?''
33571''Who are you?''
33571''Who are you?''
33571''Who can have betrayed us?''
33571''Who is speaking to me?''
33571''Who''s there?
33571''Why do you cry?''
33571''Why have you called me back to life?
33571''Why not?''
33571''Why should n''t we go now?''
33571''Why should you not?''
33571''Why, what was the matter?''
33571''Why?''
33571''Wife,''said the fisherman looking at her,''are you pope now?''
33571''Wo n''t you sit down?''
33571''You would like to have one like it, would n''t you?''
33571= Transcriber''s Notes:= Page 31,"Are you here?"
33571After a few hundred yards he met the second confederate, who addressed him,''Good day, dear sir, where are you coming from?''
33571After the first transports of joy were over the Queen said to Paridamie:''But my twelve lovely ones, are they lost to me for ever?
33571Ah, beautiful King''s daughter, what is going to befall you now?
33571And indeed who would not have been in his place?
33571And pray, why do you want to see the King, my little kitchen- maid?
33571And then she added in a low voice,''And have you married your Princess?''
33571And what do you suppose this favour turns out to be-- when I have been cajoled, into promising to grant it?
33571Are you here?''
33571Are you speaking seriously, or do you wish to make a fool of me?''
33571Are you sure you have not committed some little sin?
33571As he went his way he met a little hare, who stopped to look at him, and asked:''Where are you going, my friend?''
33571As soon as they reached the house Mr. Simon said to his housekeeper,''Well, Nina, have you done what I told the goat to tell you to do?''
33571But Ludovine repeated,''Wo n''t you tell me?''
33571But before he had gone far his friend the wolf stood before him and said,''Dear Prince, why are you so cast down?
33571But if he did not hear me, what can I do to get another chance?
33571But they only laughed at her, crying:''See the King?
33571But we can not stay here,''she added;''what are we to do?''
33571But what does a prince know of shoemaking?
33571But what is it that you do want?
33571But what is there so very precious about them?
33571But when she looked up once in her grief there stood a woman beside her who asked,''Little Two- eyes, what are you crying for?''
33571Ca n''t you see?
33571Could we not become the king of all this land?
33571Did you steal nothing from this soldier but his purse?''
33571Do n''t you know me?''
33571Do they give one wit, or will they increase one''s beauty?''
33571Fiordelisa, can you indeed be so lovely and so faithless?''
33571For could he not whisper soft speeches to Sweet, and laugh with Joy, while he looked at Beauty?
33571Had she come all this weary way only to find Turritella had succeeded in making King Charming forget her?
33571Have you followed me?
33571Have you got my scarf and my bouquet?''
33571Have you no respect for a Fairy?''
33571Have you not heard that my son feeds upon Christians?''
33571Have you really been foolish enough to believe that the daughter of the King of the Low Countries would ever marry the son of a boatman?''
33571He enquired:''And who is the bridegroom?''
33571He knocked at the door, which was opened by a little old woman who asked,''What do you want at this late hour in the midst of this great forest?''
33571He opened it, and the snuff- box said to him in the Spanish language,''What do you want?''
33571He put his pipe in his pocket and knocked gently, saying politely:''Would you give me a light?''
33571He quietly stood on his head, stuck his legs out at the carriage window and called out to the bear,''Do you see my stocks?
33571He said to her,''Why have you come back alone?
33571He said,''Have n''t you seen a stag about here?''
33571He spoke to her, and said,''Dear child, could I and my servant spend the night in this house?''
33571He thought he had not heard aright, and opened his eyes wide and said:''What did you say, wife?''
33571Her father said to her:''My dearest child, why are you so unhappy?
33571How could I ever go on living without her?''
33571How could she ever find a beautiful wife for me?
33571How could the lovely Princess Fiordelisa be a little kitchen- maid?
33571How would it be if we turned ourselves into storks?''
33571I suppose the creature must be christened, but I do n''t see how we are to ask anyone to be sponsor to him, and what are we to call him?''
33571If I keep you, will you give me your clothes and wear some that I will provide you with?
33571If I should lose you too, what would become of me?''
33571In a few minutes the toad stood in front of him and asked,''What''s the matter with you now, my dear Prince?''
33571In spite of his sadness, the youth smiled and replied,''What would I do with your dogs?
33571Lastly he said,''Well, Jack my Hedgehog, and what shall I bring you?''
33571Little Blue Bird, are you really the powerful King Charming?''
33571Little One- eye, are you asleep?''
33571Little Two- eyes answered,''Have I not reason to cry?
33571Little_ Two- eyes_, are you asleep?''
33571May I offer you a joint of lizard or a frog''s thigh?''
33571Meantime the Enchanter was stumping about in the hall, crying:''Where is this King?
33571Now, Browny, what sort of a house would you like to have?''
33571Of what colours are they?''
33571One day the man, whose name was Simon, said to his wife, whose name was Susan,''Why should we keep our old cat any longer?
33571One day, as he was lying half asleep in the mud, he heard a soft knock at his door, and a gentle voice said:''May I come in, Master Browny?
33571One evening the Lion said to the King:''So you think you have got twelve huntsmen, do you?''
33571Or is it true that you have been shipwrecked and taken captive, and that Rosimond has set you free?''
33571Pray what will you take for it?''
33571Pray, what may you have paid for these fine clothes?''
33571Rosimond wept at these words, and then asked:''What do you mean by giving him the ring as a punishment?
33571Shall I never see them again?''
33571She bowed her head in her hands and cried,''Is there no one under heaven who will take pity on me?''
33571She opened the lid, and the snuff- box said to her''What do you want?''
33571She stopped, and said to Fiordelisa:''What, my pretty child, are you all alone?''
33571She went on singing,''Little Three- eyes, are you awake?
33571She went on:''And yet killed twelve-- what is that?''
33571Shelter?
33571Should I be so sad if I could but find her?
33571So he called the elder Princess and said to her,''How much do you love me?''
33571So he took out the snuff- box and opened it, and again it asked''What do you want?''
33571Suddenly a misshapen toad crawled out of the swamp, and, sitting down opposite him, asked:''What''s the matter with you, my dear Prince?''
33571Suddenly the little old woman stood before him, and, tapping him on the shoulder, said,''So far good, my boy; but what do you mean to do now?''
33571Terrified to death, Helena looked up and saw a Fairy standing in front of her, who asked in the kindest way possible,''Why are you crying, my dear?''
33571The Caliph withdrew his pipe for a moment from his lips and asked,''Why do you look so anxious, Grand Vizier?''
33571The Fairy refused at first with a great show of firmness, but who could resist the tears and entreaties of anyone so pretty as Placida?
33571The King, filled with astonishment, turned to his real son and asked,''Was it not you, my son, who conquered my enemies and won such a glorious peace?
33571The Prince sent Mousta back to her, and he was welcomed with joy, for was he not her lover''s present?
33571The dog laid this to heart and said nothing; but when they approached the shore he could not help asking,''Have you got the watch?''
33571The farmer said,''What''s the use of making a fuss?
33571The fisher replied:''What good, pray, will a castle be to me if I have nothing to eat in it?''
33571The fisherman went up to her quietly and said:''Wife, are you emperor now?''
33571The simple- minded shepherd, who believed his story implicitly, asked him,''Do you think the king of the country would give his daughter to me?''
33571The two storks on the palace roof looked at each other, and Caliph Chasid said,''Can you guess now, Grand Vizier, why I have been enchanted?
33571Their father answered sadly,''How can I bear it if, when you are far away, I know nothing about you?''
33571Then Little Two- eyes came to her, and woke her and said,''Well, Little Three- eyes, have you been asleep?
33571Then again the wise woman stood before her, and said,''Little Two- eyes, what are you crying for?''
33571Then he asked her,''What do you do in my palace?''
33571Then he said,''Little Two- eyes, what shall I give you for this?''
33571Then he went on, away, away, away, and as he went he said to himself,''If it says to me again"What do you want?"
33571Then she added,''You look unhappy; is there anything the matter?
33571Then she asked:''One slew none-- what is that?''
33571Then the envious mother cried out,''Will you fare better than we do?
33571Then the flounder came swimming up and said,''Well, what does she want?''
33571There he found a little old woman who said to him''What are you doing here?
33571There he found a little old woman, who asked him,''What are you doing here?
33571To which he replied with a self- satisfied chuckle:''You want a narcissus, madam?
33571VII Who felt foolish but John, when he awoke, twenty- four hours after, and found himself without purse, without mantle, and without Princess?
33571Was there ever anything so strange?
33571What business have you to do it?
33571What do I want?
33571What do you say, madam?''
33571What do you take me for?
33571What do you think?
33571What good will it do you if you kill me-- I shall not taste nice?
33571What have I done?
33571What shall we do?''
33571When it asked him, as of yore,''What do you want?''
33571When they had finished the wife asked,''But husband, where do all these riches come from?''
33571Where is my chariot?
33571Where is your husband?''
33571Which will you choose?''
33571Who ever felt so astonished as the King?
33571Why are you so sad?''
33571Why did he cherish her portrait while he was so fatally indifferent to herself?
33571Why did you not condescend to consult me?
33571Why do n''t you set out and try your fortune somewhere else?''
33571Why does n''t my lovely Fiordelisa make haste and come back to me?''
33571Why, at your age one is always ready to eat; and now you have been walking, and I suppose you are ravenous?''
33571Why, we ca n''t even fly yet; what can we do but die of hunger?''
33571Will you be off at once?''
33571Will you go at once?
33571Will you go?''
33571With a smile she held out her hand to the Caliph, and asked:''Do you not recognise your screech owl?''
33571With whom did you talk at the little window, if it was not with me?''
33571Would you give me some lessons?''
33571You both remember the fountain I call my favourite?
33571[ Illustration: ¿ QUE PESEA USTED?]
33571[ Illustration]''"Who are you, little girl,"said she,"who dares to come where I allow no mortal to live, lest my birds should be disturbed?
33571[ Illustration]''A donkey?
33571[ Illustration]''And what kind of word did you give them?''
33571[ Illustration]''I will tell you with pleasure,''she answered,''but where is the hurry?
33571[ Illustration]''My good friend,''he said to Peter,''do you know what I promised the person who succeeded in making the Princess laugh?''
33571_ You!_ Why what do you suppose would be the good of you in this country, where everybody is wide- awake and busy?
33571all alone, and without any means of existence?''
33571are you king now?''
33571are you satisfied now?
33571but instead of singing as she ought to have done,''Little Three- eyes, are you asleep?''
33571changed to"Are you here?''"
33571could I not make the sun and man rise?''
33571cried Nina;''did n''t you see that they were only playing you a trick?
33571cried he,''does the lovely Princess Fiordelisa deign to think of me in this amiable and encouraging way?''
33571cried the King angrily,''have I been altogether deceived and deluded?
33571cried the Princess, recognising the voice of one of her favourites,''Philomel, my sweet one, who taught you that new song?''
33571cried the Princess,''do you think I am come to beg of you?''
33571cried their wives,''how could you ever believe for a moment that a goat would do the work of a servant- maid?
33571dear madam,''cried the King, throwing himself at her feet;''did I ever have time to get as far as your name?
33571do n''t you see that it is meant for me?''
33571exclaimed the Caliph,''say, when does he come, and where is the hall?''
33571exclaimed the fox to himself,''you think you will escape me that way, do you?
33571exclaimed the master;''how is it that he lets you touch him, when no one else can go near him?''
33571have I found you at last?''
33571he replied:''What do I want?
33571he said,''how could you betray me to our cruel enemies when I loved you so dearly?''
33571how can I tell you?''
33571how can this all have happened?
33571how could there be when her heart was far away on the Ice Mountains?
33571is that the way you answer me?''
33571or how could a little kitchen- maid have Fiordelisa''s own voice?
33571or,''What will please Sylvain?''
33571replied her husband,''why should we be king?
33571said the King,''and who are you?''
33571said the fisherman,''the cottage is quite good enough; why do we choose to live in a castle?''
33571said the man,''why should I go down there again?''
33571said the mother pig, looking quite distressed,''And you, Blacky?''
33571she said,''what have I ever done that you should forsake me and marry Turritella?
33571she sang, without thinking,''Little_ Two- eyes_, are you asleep?''
33571the little soldier asked himself,''or was she angry because I missed our meetings?''
33571turning to her youngest son,''what sort of a house shall I order for you?''
33571what are you telling me?''
33571what have I ever done to be imprisoned like this?
33571what have you done?''
33571what more can one wish for?''
33571what pleasure has a wretched captive in the sight of them?''
33571what_ is_ the matter?''
33571where am I?''
33571where is my Narcissus?''
33571wife,''said the fisherman,''what more do you want?
33571wife,''said the fisherman,''why do you want to be emperor?''
33571wife,''said the fisherman,''why do you want to be king?
33571you''ll kill my dog, will you?''
27000''But where do the babies come from, then?'' 27000 ''How_ we_ do it?''
27000''What are you looking at?'' 27000 A difference?"
27000A fowl? 27000 Ah, how is it prepared?
27000Ah, so he spoke to you, my child?
27000Ah, what is to become of the poor thing?
27000Am I not just as good as that big creature yonder, that is waited on, and brushed, and has meat and drink put before him? 27000 Am I really looking at my own image from beneath the deep waters?"
27000And how do you think men appreciate this poetry? 27000 And pray what do you want?"
27000And what did you receive?
27000And when will spring come?
27000And whom do you love?
27000And why did you leave her?
27000Are they the same kind of beings as you and I?
27000Are we to go much farther into the country?
27000But have you anything you can roast it in? 27000 But if she were to say she was sorry, and to beg pardon, and say she would never do so again?"
27000But the little blue flower by the water- side, where is that?
27000But the poor people!--And you saw all that with your own eyes?
27000But what are they?
27000But what shall we do for sauce?
27000But what was I saying? 27000 But what was the''something more,''of which you spoke?"
27000But what will the young ones say to it?
27000But when will spring come?
27000But where do you intend to hide them?
27000But will Ingé never come up here again?
27000But_ why_ is the horse to have golden shoes? 27000 Can I be of any service to you?"
27000Can not any one else do that?
27000Darest thou follow me?
27000Did you know me again directly, Ib?
27000Did you not hear him read aloud what I have written down?
27000Do n''t you see that I''m a prisoner?
27000Do you call_ this_ beautiful? 27000 Do you see the beauty of those flowers?
27000Do you see?
27000Do you take that so much to heart? 27000 Do you want to get in here too?"
27000Do you want to have golden shoes too?
27000Do you wish to see the golden fruit?
27000Does a stove look so beautiful?
27000Golden shoes? 27000 Has the Pope a large family?"
27000Have I had a bad dream? 27000 Have you been in the emperor''s stable?"
27000Hearest thou?
27000Heartily? 27000 How could the very best thing be contained in this little nut?
27000How could you quit such a comfortable place?
27000I mean, has he a wife and children?
27000I presume you have never heard of what is called''European necessity?''
27000In what manner did you leave the world?
27000Is he dead? 27000 Is it at all like me?"
27000Is it myself that I see reflected on the clear mirror?
27000Is it not beautiful here?
27000Is it true what they said: that she was good for nothing?
27000Is it true,he asked,"that you do n''t know what poetry means?"
27000Is there a carriage with a pair of horses in this nut?
27000Is there anything more to be seen?
27000Is there in this nut a pretty little neckerchief, like the one Christine wears round her neck?
27000It is I-- it is Helga-- dost thou not know me? 27000 Mother, you surely have not forgotten them?"
27000No? 27000 Now, what''s the meaning of this?"
27000Now, who do you think this poor woman was? 27000 Oh, those are the gentlemen, are they?"
27000Oh, you will enchant us with the little instrument, will you not?
27000Perhaps you come from some muck- heap?
27000Pray who are you, my good woman?
27000Sayest thou so?
27000Shall I ever get in there? 27000 Shall we exchange?"
27000Shall we not soon hear about the preparation?
27000Shall we wager?
27000She who came from the race of the fairies? 27000 So he says you have a mother who is good for nothing?
27000So they were drowned?
27000Surely you do not doubt the future life?
27000That thing up yonder is to teach me to run?
27000That was not at all bad,said the other Mouse;"but how does one prepare this soup?"
27000The splendid black horses in the stable-- what became of them? 27000 The vault of heaven is above me everywhere,"he says,"and what do I want more?"
27000Understand? 27000 Well, and what have you done?
27000Well, why do you lie in my way?
27000What are yonder white clouds that rise so high?
27000What do you think of_ that_ crowing?
27000What dost_ thou_ bring? 27000 What happens to man?"
27000What has a woman to do with rule?
27000What have I done? 27000 What have I done?"
27000What have you in that sack?
27000What is in it?
27000What is that?
27000What is this?
27000What should I become?
27000What will I give? 27000 What will you give me for the sackful?"
27000What''s the meaning of_ done_? 27000 What?--give me what?"
27000When God is hard towards me, how should men be better?
27000When will spring come?
27000When will spring come?
27000Where are you coming?
27000Where hast thou stolen that beauteous maiden?
27000Who is that old man yonder?
27000Who is that?
27000Who is the dead man?
27000Who is the man? 27000 Who were those two?"
27000Why are you angry with me?
27000Why, what have you found this time?
27000With the crow? 27000 Yes, it has been given to_ us_,"said the young wife,"but to how many thousands is not this life one scene of hard trial?
27000You are a performer?
27000You speak our language,he said;"what do you wish?
27000You will not take sea service again, Jürgen?
27000''Are they dead?''
27000''Are you happy?''
27000''Did you laugh at the duck too?''
27000''For whom was that star intended?''
27000''How is it,''she asked,''that when you have prayed for daily bread, you always add something I can not understand?
27000''How so?''
27000''I have not read it yet; what think_ you_ of the contents?''
27000''I wonder what they will do with it?''
27000''Mother,''she cried,''what will the little dogs think, when they see me in these splendid new things?''"
27000''Tramp, tramp''--somebody was coming upstairs: who might it be?
27000''What advantage,''I asked,''can accrue to our mouse king, and to our whole powerful state, from the fact of my having witnessed all this festivity?
27000''What are you about here?''
27000''What is it you say after_ our daily bread_?''
27000''Will you marry a girl who honours and respects, but who does not love you-- though that may come later?''
27000***** And how did Waldemar Daa and his daughters prosper?
27000*****"Are those the high mountains of which I heard tell?"
27000A little?
27000A rich life in present and future happiness was given and won; and what was yet to come?
27000Alfred the sculptor-- you know him?
27000And as she walked along by the margin of the sea, what was it she saw lying there?
27000And did that occupation seem more agreeable to him than watching the wax lights in the temple?
27000And here is a nettle-- what tale may its leaves have to tell?
27000And how did all this come about?
27000And pray what was he by profession and calling in civil society?
27000And she asked,''Wilt thou be buried on the rock, in the firm snow?
27000And the Lord our Creator is wise and full of loving- kindness-- who can doubt it?
27000And then, do you not think that the beast of burden, which suffers blows and hunger, and works itself to death, suffers from its heavy fate?
27000And thou, Ida?
27000And was the image, fashioned in God''s likeness, to have no better destination?
27000And what came of it all?
27000And what did he see?
27000And what is the bell telling?
27000And when is it to be undertaken?
27000And who was little Christine?
27000And who was my father?
27000And why was this?
27000And you will come to me soon-- will you not, dear mother?"
27000Are air balloons invented yet?"
27000Are there no neighbours or friends whom I could call to you?"
27000Are you_ done_, too?"
27000Beetle?"
27000Bishop Olaf, of Börglum, what dost thou purpose?
27000Both were conceited; but which of the two effected most?
27000But are you aware that every word we speak is being taken down, and will be published in the paper to- morrow?
27000But could she not stoop and break off a piece of the loaf on which she stood?
27000But he did not enjoy it; and, indeed, how could he enjoy himself when he was stove- sick?
27000But how can houses build a house?
27000But how comes it that one relation is always harder towards another than even strangers would be?
27000But how was the thing to be prepared according to the recipe?
27000But how were these represented in the world?
27000But in spite of his wise head, the architect remained but a poor bird; and, indeed, what business has a sparrow to take part in a dance of peacocks?
27000But is it not dangerous to the people round about?"
27000But men were said sometimes to have acted no better towards their own fellow men; for had not the knight, Sir Bugge, been murdered by wicked people?
27000But not an hour had passed when the knight stood before the captive pasha, and said to him:"What dost thou suppose awaiteth thee?"
27000But then the thought arose in her soul:"Doth God reckon by days and hours?"
27000But this other book-- I suppose the author expects me to purchase it?
27000But what amends did he get for having been imprisoned a whole year, and shut out from all communion with men?
27000But what became of the five brothers?
27000But what conveyance shall I choose?
27000But what might this_ something_ be?
27000But what use is my mother''s weeping now?"
27000But what will you have?
27000But where grew the flower that could restore him to health?
27000But which of our deeds is selected and given to us?
27000But which one did he like?
27000But whither did Ingé go?
27000Cold and cheerless was his abode-- and when would this state of things end?
27000Could not all those bricks and pieces be counted as a single brick in his favour?
27000Did I not tell the truth?"
27000Did he drive away to meet death, or hasten to the embraces of his beloved?
27000Did she think of him?
27000Do n''t I belong to the imperial stable?"
27000Do n''t you hear how hoarse I am?
27000Do n''t you know the announcement that has been made all through the country?"
27000Do n''t you understand that?"
27000Do you fancy you are the poet?
27000Do you hear how the wind howls down here through the open valley, like a watchman blowing his horn?
27000Do you know him?
27000Do you know them?"
27000Do you know what dwells in the glass?"
27000Do you notice the variegated splendour of the walls and windows?
27000Do you remember how we came as children to this land of the North?
27000Do you see how splendidly that tree has come on?
27000Do you see how the wind drives the clouds up yonder, like a frightened flock of sheep?
27000Do you see the winged lion on the pillar?
27000Do you see, mother-- do you see them all?
27000Do you understand me?
27000Does all the beauty of this world cease when you die?"
27000Dost thou know this city?
27000Everything was much more splendid than in the theatre at Copenhagen, but then Joanna had been there, and----could it be?
27000Had his thoughts ventured to fly with the ships of the barbarians, to their homes in far distant England?
27000Had she not been borne by miracle to greater and greater bliss?
27000Had she not still a mother in the world?
27000Had they not, even in their childhood, been called the betrothed pair?
27000Has not so much been given us in this state of existence, that we ought to be, that we_ must_ be, contented with it?"
27000Have you brought anything for me?"
27000Have you ever seen a maiden?
27000He has genius, certainly; do n''t you think so?''
27000He summoned the widow before a court; but what did he gain thereby?
27000He uttered some holy names, and made the sign of the cross; and when the form remained motionless at his side, he said,"Who art thou?
27000He wants it now; and is not this the very fountain of mercy?"
27000How brightly its history began, and what has it come to?
27000How can it be possible?"
27000How can so much happiness be imagined?
27000How does the city look when you come in by the gate?"
27000How had they come here, miles into the interior of the land, and as large and high as those on the coast?
27000How many have been thrown into this world, as if only to suffer poverty and shame and sickness and misfortune?
27000How much have you got in it?"
27000How would she fare out yonder, she, the poor blind child?
27000I blew about their ears, for what use would it be that they should listen?
27000I could not speak, but he seized her hand and said,"Our brother yonder loves you, and he is dear to you, is he not?
27000I fancy you hardly knew your sausage- peg again?''
27000I suppose you are to carry that thing to your mother that you have in your pocket?
27000I suppose your mother is rinsing clothes down yonder in the river?
27000I wonder if I have done anything wrong?''
27000I wonder if these were the first that had ever been there?
27000I wonder if those in there like it?''
27000Ida and Anna Dorothea wept bitterly; Joanna stood pale and proud, and bit her thumb till it bled-- but what could that avail?
27000In a year we shall see each other once more, and then you will be married, will you not?
27000Is it not my own lovely cherub lying there?"
27000Is it not quite immaterial?
27000Is not that written in the Koran?"
27000Is spring coming now?"
27000Is there never a muck- heap, here in the garden, where a person of rank, like myself, can feel himself at home, and take up his quarters?"
27000Joanna pressed his hand and said,"Have you ever been to the theatre?
27000Joanna turned round at the entrance-- why?
27000Loves me much?
27000Many thoughts, strong and weak, thronged through Jürgen''s brain; and he said to Else,"If Martin had a house like mine, whom would you rather have?"
27000May I not fly?
27000Might we ask you to step down into this rich mud?
27000My career has been very interesting; but what''s the use of that, if nobody knows it?
27000My little singing bird, do you wish me to prepare another bath for you?"
27000Not at all?"
27000Now and then, certainly, a door is seen; but it is locked, for what does the Chinaman care about the outer world?
27000Now, how does that happen?
27000Now, where might that have been washed overboard?
27000Occasionally she heard her name spoken by her former employers, and they were pleasant words when the woman said,"Shall I ever see thee again, Ingé?
27000One drop out of me is enough for half a page of paper; and what can not be contained in half a page?
27000Or did he wish to sit at the rich feast, wiping his mouth with silver paper between each course?
27000Or was his sin so great that, if he dared utter it, the Celestial Empire would punish it with death?
27000Or wouldst thou rather be buried in the sea?''
27000Painfully?
27000Pray, pray tell me, shall I get this one or that?
27000Self- sacrifice, patience-- everything in me belongs to him as to me?"
27000Shall I tell you?
27000Shall we exchange?
27000Shall we exchange?"
27000Shall we fly out there and wait?
27000She paused for a moment-- of what might she be thinking?
27000Should he not be able here upon earth to obtain a light by which everything should become clear to him that stood written in the Book of Truth?
27000Should you like to hear the order of the banquet?
27000That is a serious thought; I hope it is not disagreeable to you that I should have touched upon it?
27000That was how it went with Anne Lisbeth''s boy; and how could it go otherwise?
27000The Phoenix bird, dost thou not know him?
27000The Phoenix bird, dost thou not know him?
27000The dying woman gazed at him, and her eyes opened wider and wider-- did she recognize him?
27000The green band from the heart of the mother to the bird''s wings, where did it flutter now?
27000The spirit comes upon it; but whence does it come?
27000The world knew not which of the two was the true one; and, indeed, how should the world know?
27000Then her husband asked her,"From whence hast thou all at once derived this strength-- this feeling of consolation?"
27000Then the sparrows came again out of the town, and asked,"Who is that old man yonder?"
27000There was an old lady''s glove too: I wonder what that was thinking of?
27000There were merry doings at sundown and in the moonlight, but I took no part in them-- what has a little mouse to do with a May dance?
27000Therefore I went up to him, took his hand, and said,''Are you still of the same mind towards me?''
27000They saw that the bottle must have been thrown overboard, and that something about this was written on the paper, but what were the words?
27000Thither?"
27000To Sparta, to Mycene, to Delphi?
27000To eternal life, says the comforting voice of religion; but what is the transition?
27000Was he thinking, perchance, of his fair young wife?
27000Was he, perhaps, dreaming of working in the little flower garden behind the high street wall?
27000Was it a heavy sea coming suddenly down?
27000Was it a waterspout?
27000Was it in the house itself, or at a neighbour''s?
27000Was it the death- hymn he wrote there?
27000Was it the power of song and of prayer that worked in her, or was she shuddering at the cold morning twilight that was approaching?
27000Was it to be merely the sport of chance?
27000Was not that witty?
27000Was she thinking of this old song?
27000Was she to be left sitting there alone on the bough all night long?
27000We all three prayed silently; and then she said to us,"Will you be friends in life and in death?"
27000We sing you to sleep, we shake you to sleep, but it does you good in your old twigs, does it not?
27000Were these not the words of the serpent, the origin of falsehood?"
27000Were these the glad notes of joy?
27000What are yonder swans flapping their wings for?"
27000What had become of the pearls?
27000What is the despised plant that you especially pity?"
27000What is your reward for undergoing these hardships?
27000What may death be?
27000What might this mean?
27000What the bell tells?
27000What was it that raised him up again?
27000What was that by the stove?
27000What were her feelings?
27000What were his thoughts when he plucked it and kept it?
27000What were they looking at?
27000What were they talking of?
27000What will the next thing be?
27000What would it have led to now, when fortune has turned away from me?
27000Whence comes this name, and what is its meaning?
27000Whence this animal shape that thou bearest, while yet thou art full of gentle mercy?"
27000Where did they live?
27000Where is the bird who sang, where are the flowers upon the meadow, and the sweet berries of the wood?
27000Where was it?
27000Where was the tanner''s daughter?
27000Where were now the tears that he had wept?
27000Where were they?
27000Where would Joanna''s picture find its place on that wall some day?
27000Which of our deeds will Death take out of the savings bank, and give to us as provision?
27000Which will be my bride?
27000Whither?
27000Who can replace it?
27000Who has not, in reading this story, thought of his own strife, and of his own numerous"difficulties?"
27000Who might be able to loosen this charm that wicked sorcery had worked?
27000Who might be weeping for Ingé?
27000Who would fidget about such a trifle?
27000Whom did that represent?
27000Whose lambkins will they one day become?
27000Why do you appear here-- you, a strange woman?"
27000Why do you say that?"
27000Why not?
27000Why was this vouchsafed to her?
27000Will the king now be pleased to dip his tail in the boiling water, and to stir it round with the said tail?
27000Will you make haste and put that kettle upon the fire?
27000Would her husband and her daughter thus flit past?
27000Would it be better with Jürgen?
27000Yes, what is the soul?
27000Yes, where does he dwell?
27000Yes, where was the land, and which land might be nearest to her dwelling?
27000You know what a falling star is, do you not?
27000and how would_ he_ look, her noble lord and husband?
27000do you see their power?"
27000exclaimed Jack the Dullard,"for I suppose you''ll let me roast my crow at the same time?"
27000exclaimed the Portuguese duck,"would you compare me with the cat, that beast of prey?
27000exclaimed the brothers,"what are you going to do with that?"
27000repeated the wise man, and fixed his eyes upon the moon and the stars;"up yonder?"
27000said Jack the Dullard,"where are you going?
27000said the Oak;"and the purple bell- flower and the daisy?"
27000she asked of my golden crescent;''Are they dead?''
27000she said,"could he not bear even that?
27000she said,"what bird of ill omen art thou?"
27000the cold makes you shiver, does it not, you little ones?"
27000the wise man asked himself,"when the angel of death touches him?
27000they cried,"that is only an old wooden shoe, and the upper part is missing into the bargain; are you going to give that also to the princess?"
27000what became of the old gold and silver vessels in cupboards and chests, the cows in the fields, and the house and home itself?
27000what burst yonder?
27000what have you accomplished down there?"
27000what seized the boat?
27000what struck there?
27000what was lying yonder?
27000what was that?
27000when will spring come?
27000where does one live, and how?
27000where has the master gone?
27000whither doth it go?
27000whither had it been wafted?
9952A beggar- girl?
9952A princess?
9952Am I asking you to do much for your country?
9952Am I crazy, or are you?
9952And what have you to tell me, my Prince?
9952And what shall I do to hasten it?
9952And what will you have me do?
9952And what wilt thou do there?
9952And what wilt thou do, Princess?
9952And why didst thou say when thou didst lead me in to dinner, that thou wast sorry not for me, but for thyself?
9952And why do you smile who should look sad?
9952Are you a witch?
9952But how do I know whether you are really the Princess Myrtle? 9952 But no bird flies alone to bliss,( Princess, why?
9952But why do you wear coarse linen who should be clothed in satins?
9952Can you not rest by our hearth?
9952Could I harm you, soul of my soul?
9952Did she break her heart?
9952Did you expect to be really wise, and yet thought sane?
9952Did you obey your father because you are sorry for me?
9952Do n''t you think that the best thing you can do with a good dinner is to eat it?
9952Do you know what people say?
9952Heart''s dearest, why do you weep?
9952I pity the poor babes, but how can I bring up a baby?
9952I pray you tell me,said Prince Hugh,"how you, being a beggar- maid, walk as if possessed of wealth?"
9952May I tell you,said Prince Martin,"that your eyes are like stars?"
9952May I tell you,said Prince Tristan, holding out his rose,"that you are the most beautiful princess I have ever seen?"
9952Mother Huldah,he said as he drew a black paw knowingly over one ear,"do n''t you know that wherever a baby comes, help comes?
9952Mother Huldah,replied Tommie,"did you ever know a cat to do anything impulsive unless he saw a bird, or a mouse?"
9952Next?
9952O Wise Man,cried the Princess,"how shall we reward thee for thy wisdom?"
9952Of what materials is this wonderful wall to be built?
9952Of what will you be sure?
9952Prince Merlin,she said at last,"if this strange tale be true, what stone wilt thou place in the invisible wall?"
9952Rupert? 9952 Say,"said the tanner,"will my Uncle Jean leave me his farm?"
9952Sir Puss,he said,"shall I we d ever the Princess Yolande?"
9952Tell me, Prince Merlin,she said,"if you agree with these courtiers that to- night I am become a princess?"
9952Tell me, maid, why you wear the blue glove?
9952Tell me,she said,"why, then, didst thou sink thy ball?"
9952Thomas,questioned Mother Huldah solemnly,"where did you get this dinner?"
9952Those are your sons?
9952What am I to you?
9952What do they say?
9952What do you see?
9952What has all this to do with war?
9952What is he then?
9952What is your will, Sire?
9952What person gave you that glove in place of alms?
9952What then?
9952Where did she learn to smile?
9952Who else could I see?
9952Why did you put it in the water?
9952Why didst thou say''Clothes do not make a princess''?
9952Why do n''t you all stop and think, while the ladies make their vows?
9952Why do you cry, Beloved?
9952Why do you cry?
9952Why do you do that?
9952Why have you followed me?
9952Why, Thomas( she always called him Thomas in solemn moments),"what''s this?"
9952Will you meet me,she said,"on the edge of the wild forest in half an hour''s time?"
9952Will you sell your glove, beggar- maid?
9952Will you take this fellow for forgiveness''s sake?
9952Wilt thou continue thy search, Princess Myrtle?
9952With me?
9952Woman,he cried,"why do you dance when a princess weeps?"
9952You scorn to touch what a beggar- maid has handled?
9952After a while he said,"Listen, do n''t you hear something, Mother Huldah?"
9952And the Wizard called in a loud voice to them,"Men and women, is it your will that your good deeds be destroyed or remain in everlasting remembrance?
9952At which the crowd all looked at Tommie, who winked at them and said,"Does anybody here want to ask me any questions?
9952Can this mighty Wizard destroy what he has erected?"
9952Did not my dancing please you?"
9952Exchange those cool, dim places, flower- scented, for the glare and noise of a fair?"
9952If I give him his liberty will that help build up the wall?"
9952Is that to your liking?"
9952Next day came the Mistress of the Inn to set the room in order, and as she bustled about she said,"From what kingdom comes your husband, the Prince?"
9952Now I have n''t hurt your feelings, have I?"
9952Now that''s fair, is n''t it?"
9952Princess, where?)
9952Princess, why?)
9952See you not the crimson light?"
9952She held out her hand to him with the blue velvet glove upon it, and she said softly,"Will you look into my mirror, Prince Merlin?"
9952The King said to her,"What did my sons say and do to you?"
9952Then she laughed joyfully and asked,"Why didst thou say''I am not like my brothers''when I asked thee to dance?"
9952Then when he was silent she spoke thus to him:"Will you go with me and my ladies to the Tree in the Dark Wood this very night?
9952Those who knew that the tree glowed with life were in the fields quietly at work, for what had they to trouble them who had found the truth?
9952What have you to oppose to such strength?
9952What have you to tell me but your tales of the great winds?
9952What will you wear?
9952When they are hushed wilt thou return To bless the close of day?
9952Where is Richard who always wanted"a tale never told before,"and small Spencer with his dreaming eyes and baby mouth?
9952Where is quaint Matilda with her plaid dress and her straight black hair; where is Ruth?
9952Where was the beautiful green summer- tree hung with crimson fruit?
9952Where was the light like the sun''s rays through painted glass?
9952Which of my sons hast thou chosen?"
9952Will it please you?
9952Will you be pleased to look in my mirror?"
9952Wilt thou, for the love of heaven, take me up behind thee and convey me through the Dark Wood to my dwelling?
9952With whom will you dance?"
9952[ Illustration: MERLIN DROPS THE BALL INTO THE FOUNTAIN]"Why did you do that?"
9952cried the tailor who was the first to get the message,"A war?
9952have you kept that precious infant warm?"
9952said Mother Huldah,"you are not going to do anything impulsive?"
9952what Rupert?"
9952will you teach us?"
27826''"That is evil news indeed,"answered Jagdschi;"but can I do nothing to comfort you?"
27826''"What is it?
27826''"What is the matter, O Fair One?"
27826''Abeille,''said the king, when he had watched her for a moment, with a look of pain on his face,''is this the man that you wish to marry?''
27826''And did you see the Green Knight?''
27826''And do you know that part of the garden which is known as the Queen''s Bed?''
27826''And may I ask what important business takes you there?''
27826''And of course he told you his, in return?''
27826''And what am I to ask for it?''
27826''And what am I to do with them when I get there?''
27826''And what is that?''
27826''And what is the third question?''
27826''And what questions will you ask?''
27826''And what shall I do there?''
27826''And what wages do you ask?''
27826''And where does he live?''
27826''Are you a bird or a snake that you can enter here?''
27826''Are you mad?''
27826''Are you still determined to find out what I was laughing at the other day?''
27826''Are you surprised at seeing my eyes open?''
27826''Ay, so she says, though the old witch---- But what ails you?''
27826''Besides, that is the end; what do you say to it?''
27826''But how can I?''
27826''But how long have you been here?''
27826''But what am I to do, then?''
27826''But why do you follow me?''
27826''But you are so clever, and have seen so much of the world-- surely you can think of some plan?''
27826''But you, my sister,''added she, turning to the third girl,''to whom do you drink?''
27826''But, first, what is your name?''
27826''But,''she said,''what is this?
27826''But-- but, do you know what you are saying?''
27826''But-- well-- yes, doubtless; yes-- well-- one hundred and one camels-- and what did he do with them?''
27826''But_ where_?''
27826''Can I obtain the stone from the magician?''
27826''Can you keep a secret?''
27826''Can you possibly imagine that I should agree to anything so useless and painful?
27826''Can you remove the spell?''
27826''Come where?''
27826''Could it have been a dream?
27826''Did I laugh?''
27826''Did n''t I tell you so?''
27826''Did you see_ nothing_, really_ nothing_?''
27826''Do n''t you remember me?''
27826''Do n''t you understand?
27826''Do you take pleasure in the misfortunes of others, and in mine also?
27826''Do you think I am going to give to the dead the food of the living?''
27826''Do you want a girl to sweep, and to milk the cows?''
27826''Do you want a kitchen- maid?''
27826''Frightened?''
27826''Frightful,''murmured the queen;''but look, what is that glittering object that is lying out there?''
27826''Good evening, brother,''said one,''whence come you-- and what is the news?''
27826''Grandmother,''asked Zoulvisia, as soon as the door was safely shut,''where is the owner of this ring?''
27826''Has your lordship a piece of money for a poor man?''
27826''Have you met with fear?''
27826''How can I reach her soonest?''
27826''How can a man in prison know what is happening outside it?''
27826''How did you come here?''
27826''How did your illness first begin, my son?''
27826''How is it possible that I should not follow your directions when my life and happiness are at stake?''
27826''How much would you take for them?''
27826''How shall I turn these rubies into money?''
27826''How should there be a tiger inside the city?
27826''I?''
27826''If my master can succeed in killing the monster, what reward will you give him?''
27826''If you can make her speak she shall be your wife,''answered he;''but if not-- did you mark the skulls that strewed the mountain side?''
27826''Ill?''
27826''In whose hands should I leave them, if not in yours?''
27826''Is there anything else?''
27826''Is there nothing that can keep you here?''
27826''Is your bald- headed son here?''
27826''Lala- ji,''said the gentleman who had played the part of the relative attendant on the palanquin,''why do you dance?
27826''Mad?
27826''May I answer?''
27826''May I inquire,''he said,''who this is in the palanquin that deigns to favour my humble shop with a visit?
27826''May I say?''
27826''Most unreasonable of women,''cried the rajah,''where am I to get eight more such jewels as these?
27826''Must I indeed pretend to wish to marry that horrible Riquette?''
27826''My son,''said he,''what is the matter?''
27826''No caravan of armed men would dare to come here, even the very birds shun our camp, and who are you to venture in so boldly?''
27826''Not got any secrets?''
27826''Now,''said the nightingale,''to which of them did the maiden really belong?
27826''Oh, Toté,''asked the starling,''how do you think our princess looks now in these fine jewels?''
27826''Oh, is it you, is it_ really_ you, my deliverer?
27826''Oh, poor soul that weeps,''cried the farmer, standing a little way off,''who are you?''
27826''Oh,''cried the nanny goat,''why should you fall in?
27826''Remember you?''
27826''Shall I save you?''
27826''Some day a man is bound to break the spell, O sultan,''replied the youth boldly;''and why should not I be he as well as another?
27826''Suppose she should be there?''
27826''Tell me what is making you so unhappy?''
27826''Tell me, my prince,''said the nightingale, when he had finished his story,''which of the three men deserved to win the lady?
27826''The luck must change some time,''he said, at last;''and who would not risk his head for the hand of such a peerless princess?''
27826''Then whose is this?''
27826''They are beautiful shoes,''said Abeille rather doubtfully;''but do you think they will carry me all the way back to my mother?''
27826''Think?''
27826''Tiger?''
27826''To begin with: How long have you been here?''
27826''To whose health do you drink?''
27826''Very fine, no doubt,''grumbled the parrot;''but what is the use of dressing up like that for oneself only?
27826''WHAT?''
27826''Well, have you found fear?''
27826''Well, how have you sped?''
27826''Well,''said the rajah anxiously,''what have you to advise?''
27826''Well?''
27826''Well?''
27826''What ails you?''
27826''What am I to do now?''
27826''What can I do?''
27826''What do you know of him?''
27826''What do you mean?''
27826''What do you mean?''
27826''What do you want, little dog?''
27826''What do you want?''
27826''What does it feel like to be frightened?''
27826''What does it matter?''
27826''What evil fate brought you here?''
27826''What have you been doing all this time?''
27826''What is all this?
27826''What is it that shines on the roof?''
27826''What is it, my daughter?''
27826''What is that, godmother?''
27826''What is that?''
27826''What is the matter with you?''
27826''What is the matter?''
27826''What is the matter?''
27826''What is your name, pretty maiden?''
27826''What is your request?''
27826''What night was it that you slept in the peepul tree?''
27826''What said the rascal?''
27826''What shall I do without you?
27826''What shall we do with her?''
27826''What sort of creature is it?''
27826''What think you, O mortal,''said the giant,''of my fair and lovely wife?''
27826''What''s the use of that?''
27826''What, you?''
27826''What_ do_ you mean?''
27826''Where are we, my friend?''
27826''Where are you going, my masters?''
27826''Where are you going?''
27826''Where did it come from?''
27826''Where did you get that bracelet?''
27826''Where did you get them from?''
27826''Where does the Green Knight live?''
27826''Where does the meat and drink you have had here come from?''
27826''Where is Geirlaug?''
27826''Where?
27826''Who are you that lure men into your power and then poison them?
27826''Who are you, and why have you come here?''
27826''Who are you?''
27826''Who are you?''
27826''Who are you?''
27826''Who are you?''
27826''Who is Youri?''
27826''Who is the silent princess?
27826''Who will reign over us when you are dead?
27826''Whose beasts are those, my man?''
27826''Why are all these crowds gathered together?''
27826''Why are you so gloomy?''
27826''Why do you waste the few moments that are left you in this manner?''
27826''Will you lend me your ox, fair maiden?''
27826''Will you not come back to Arabia and marry me, now you have saved my life?''
27826''Will you treat me as badly as Grethari treated Geirlaug?''
27826''With all my heart,''replied the farmer;''but what shall we talk about?
27826''Yes,''said the bunniah impatiently,''what next?''
27826''You did that for me?''
27826''You doubt it?''
27826''You expect me to get you those leaves, do you?
27826''You have been crying-- are you not happy?''
27826''You look sad; are you_ really_ going to let that ugly mole marry you?''
27826''You must never come here again,''said he,''for, once having asked so much, how will you in future be content with smaller gifts?''
27826''Zoulvisia?
27826''_ Our_ sorrow is as great as yours,''answered the other duck,''but what can we do?
27826''_ Why_ should I be thirsty?''
27826''_ Will_ you?''
27826''_ Wo n''t_ you come with me, Maia?''
27826--stammered the princess--''I have summoned you?
27826Abeille gazed at it for a moment, and then she said:''Do you see?
27826And did you see that, at her first words, the veils that covered her began to rend?
27826And even if she were, what harm could she do to us?''
27826And even supposing that King Lino_ did_ fly that way, there were thousands of blue parrots in the forest, and how was she to know him, or he her?
27826And how am I to go so far for water twice when one journey wearies me?''
27826And how can I, or any other man, do that?''
27826And immediately his attendants went to seek the man, and brought him to the king, who asked:''What is this you want?''
27826And is it your subjects who hold as a captive Abeille whom I love?''
27826And now that is settled, where is Hermosa?''
27826And what had become of Cadichon?
27826And what may I do for her?''
27826And where was he?
27826And where were Petaldo''s children all this while?
27826And why should it be a punishment to fall in love with her?''
27826And with that he crossed the room behind the princess, and cried:''O fairest of candlesticks, how are you?''
27826And, besides, it is so far; how could we get there?''
27826Are any ill that need my medicine?''
27826Are you going far?''
27826As the doctors can not cure your master shall I try?''
27826At length he said:''Who may you be, fair sir, if you please?''
27826At that moment a hand was stretched from a grave, and a voice said:''Is that cake for me?''
27826But how shall I know that you are not jesting?''
27826But how to reach her in time?"
27826But how was she to get this ring?
27826But how were they to get food?
27826But tell me, I pray you, what it all means?''
27826But the nightingale would not agree; and they began to quarrel, till a third voice broke in:''How can you talk such nonsense?''
27826But to whose health do you drink?''
27826But what brought you to this place, and how can I reward you for what you have done for me?''
27826But what has brought him to your mind just now?''
27826But who could she be?
27826By- and- by, with a great effort, she recovered herself and said to the goose girl:''Would you like to have a fine silk dress to wear?''
27826Can you tell me where I am?''
27826Could she_ really_ care for her children so little and have forgotten them so soon?
27826Did you ever see anyone like him?''
27826Directly he had finished Dorani gazed at him, and said:''Is it true that you dreamt this, or were you really there?''
27826Do you really wish to leave me?''
27826Do you think you can open the hole for yourself?''
27826Does he still live, and will he never return to us?''
27826Had he found her after all?
27826He inquired of everyone he saw,''Do you know the Green Knight?''
27826He walked about the market for some time crying:''Has anyone patience to sell?
27826His heart beat violently, as if it would choke him; but he gasped out:''Is her name Zoulvisia?''
27826How could he have learnt in a dream all she had done or said?''
27826How did you manage to escape from them?''
27826How was he to snare all these birds?
27826How were they to be delivered from their doom?
27826However, the princess soon ended his perplexity by asking:''Have you any money?''
27826I have no one to help me in the world but you, and I have come to ask if you will take Youri my son, and let him be a brother to Abeille?''
27826I never saw or heard of you in my life before, so how could that be?''
27826I suppose you do n''t consider how in the world I am to reach them?
27826If he even looks as if he does not agree with her, she smiles at him and says:''Is it the tiger, then?
27826If it was something to eat, now, there''d be some sense in them; but what''s the good of_ such_ things?''
27826If there should come a day when you find that there is somebody whom you_ could_ love, will you tell me?''
27826Is there nothing I can do?''
27826It seemed quite impossible, and at length one of them spoke:''Oh, how can I find words to refuse?''
27826It was a strange hour for any one to be at work, and what was the hole for?
27826No one will notice your dirty boots; and you do n''t suppose that I am going to carry rice for all our kindred?''
27826One day, soon after this, Kooshy Ram came to him and said:''You remember the wall where I found you that night, near Beeka Mull''s shop?''
27826Or was she chief of a band of robbers?
27826Perhaps you can show it to me?''
27826Perhaps you would like me to show you where lies buried the treasure of dead kings?''
27826She ought to have a husband-- why does n''t she marry the man who got her all these splendid things?''
27826She was very frightened, but tried to control her fear, and called out:''Who are you, and what do you here?''
27826Surely she felt a faint movement against her cheek?
27826Surely you can get some more where these came from?''
27826Tell me how you have been all this long while?''
27826Tell me, who are you?''
27826The ducks felt wretched at the thought of abandoning their old comrade, yet, at the same time, how could they grant his prayer?
27826The king sat up, and opening his eyes he said:''Where is Zoulvisia?''
27826The merchant dances because he has recovered his fortune; Kooshy Ram dances because he is a madman and has tricked you; but why do_ you_ dance?''
27826The world''s curse?''
27826Then a thought struck him, and he turned to his mother:''Is this_ your_ doing?''
27826Then all the rustling, writhing crowd of snakes seemed to whisper to one another''Her husband?
27826Then the prince came close to her and said softly:''Are you not going to your house, Dorani?''
27826Then turning to Zoulvisia, she said:''I give you your choice-- will you come with me, or shall the serpents slay you also?''
27826Then, through the silent air came the sound of the youth''s voice:''Mother, can you tell me nothing about my father?
27826There the prince drew rein and said sadly:''Do you still insist that I should tell you my secret?''
27826Therefore, how could we walk with you over mountains and deserts, till we reached a land where the sun''s rays no longer burn?
27826To begin with, how could you break the chain I am bound with?''
27826True, the portrait was faithful enough, but how could that fair outside contain so rough and rude a soul?
27826Was she queen of all the queens?
27826Was there anything he could do to help her?
27826Was this the signal?''
27826We thought----''''Who taught you to think?''
27826Well, what did the poor thing do?''
27826What are you laughing at?''
27826What does he want with it?''
27826What is it?"
27826What is the matter with him?''
27826What is the matter?''
27826What is the reason of that, I wonder?
27826What should such a beautiful princess do in a cage?''
27826What_ can_ be the matter with me-- and why have n''t I reached the castle long ago?''
27826What_ could_ have caused this sudden change?
27826When is it to be done?''
27826When she had quite finished she put out her hand and smiled, and the old mouse said to her:''Can you tell stories?
27826When they heard this, the Jew and the boy looked at each other, and their eyes said:''Where are we to go to find the other one?''
27826Where am I to get a fresh pitcher instead of this one that you have broken with your foolish tricks?
27826Where are you?''
27826Where can she have come from?''
27826Where could he have come from?''
27826Where is he?
27826Why does n''t she wear two of them, instead of going about with one leg adorned and the other empty?''
27826Why not?''
27826Would you like to come, my good man?''

27826[ Illustration: THE BOY SECURES THE BRACELET]''No; was it there?''
27826[ Illustration: THE BUNNIAH''S STORY]''It was June,''said the farmer,''and you know how, in June, the air is full of dust- storms with rain at times?

27826_ JACKAL OR TIGER?_ One hot night, in Hindustan, a king and queen lay awake in the palace in the midst of the city.
27826_ Tu- whit!_''''But what has made him ill?''
27826a scullion cure the knight when the best physicians in the kingdom have failed?''
27826and have you not repented?''
27826asked he--''and what are you doing here-- are you ill?''
27826can no one save her?"
27826cried he,''yet how can we do what you ask?
27826cried the king,''have n''t we always longed for a son?
27826did I not say that if I told you my secret you would repent it?
27826did you see anything?''
27826good lady, can you not guess where he may be?
27826growled the other;''no, why should I?
27826he asked the girl;''was it you who made this soup that has cured me?''
27826he cried,''surely you remember me and the little box I gave you to take care of?
27826he said, dropping the oars from pain,''what can have scratched so?''
27826he said, when the old man had been brought before him,''what think you has been happening to me?''
27826her husband?''
27826how could she belong to any one but the student?
27826my brother, have I lost you?''
27826my son, how can I answer you?''
27826my son, shall I see you no more?''
27826or the jackal?''
27826patience to sell?''
27826replied the other,''where so many grey- beards have failed, how should a lad like that be of any use?''
27826said the princess;''can you tell me if this is the castle of the Green Knight?''
27826said the rani;''do you want me to die?
27826snapped Beeka Mull;''you''ve said your"good- day"twice, why do n''t you tell me your business?''
27826what do you mean?''
27826what is all this?''
27826where have you hidden yourself all this time?''
27826why do you look so sad-- is aught the matter?''
27826why must you choose an old woman like me to play your pranks upon?
8599''A young man, the best and most amiable,''said the princess''whom I could not awake; I ask you where he is?''
8599''Abdallah''( so was the old man named), said she to him,''tell me, I beseech thee, does that beautiful and charming slave belong to thee?
8599''Agreeable Maimoune,''replied Danhasch,''may I presume to ask you who is this prince you speak of?''
8599''And pray what have you brought?''
8599''But tell me,''replied he,''can you shoot with a bow?''
8599''But, captain,''said I,''was the merchant''s name to whom those goods belonged Sinbad?''
8599''But, sir,''said I,''may I presume to ask your majesty if strangers be obliged to observe this law?''
8599''But,''replied he,''how came you into my dominions, and from whence came you last?''
8599''By what adventure,''said she, fetching a deep sigh,''are you come hither?
8599''Cursed genie,''replied Maimoune,''what hurt canst thou do me?
8599''Daughter,''said she,''how could any man come to you?''
8599''Do you come to affront and contradict me,''said the prince in a great rage,''and to tell me to my face that what I have told you is a dream?''
8599''Father,''quoth she,''will you not oblige me so far as to make me a present of this young man?
8599''Good woman,''said he,''do you not perceive I have been bantering you all this while?
8599''I sent for you,''said the sultan,''to inform you that I have an intention of providing a proper marriage for you; what do you think of it?''
8599''If I do not know him,''said the princess,''would you have me tell a lie on purpose to ruin him?''
8599''Is not this she,''said he,''that the sultan my father would have had me marry?
8599''My lord,''replied the slave,''I swear I know of no such lady; and how should she come in without my knowledge, since I lay at the door?''
8599''Perfidious wretch,''said the genie to her; pointing at me,''who is this?''
8599''Princess,''cried I,''what means all this?''
8599''Sir,''cried his friends, the moment he joined them,''what is the matter?
8599''Sir,''said the old man, stopping him,''may I presume to ask from what part of the world you come?''
8599''Tell me,''said the princess,''what is become of the young man whom I love with all my soul?''
8599''The sorceress,''said some,''has got a new subject to exercise her wickedness upon: will Heaven never deliver the world from her tyranny?''
8599''Those admirable characters, are they not written by the hands of a man?''
8599''Those black men,''replied they,''are cannibals, and by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?''
8599''Well,''said the king,''in what condition did you find my son?''
8599''What can this mean?''
8599''What crime can he have committed,''said she to herself,''that a man of his high rank can deserve to be treated thus severely?''
8599''What do you mean, Sinbad?''
8599''What do you mean?''
8599''What do you say?''
8599''What mean you, sir,''said some that were nearest to him,''thus to expose a life of such promising expectation to certain death?
8599''What wouldst thou have me to do with him,''answered the citizen,''but roast and eat him?''
8599''What,''cried she,''is it you the king my father has designed me for a husband?
8599''What,''replied the prince,''could give my father alarm?
8599''What?''
8599''Whither away so fast?''
8599''Why should I not give so much?''
8599''Yield to me as a favour?
8599''You believe him then to be dead?''
8599After being shipwrecked five times, and escaping so many dangers, could I resolve again to try my fortune, and expose myself to new hardships?
8599And can it be supposed she will let it go unrevenged?
8599And who your nephew?
8599Art thou not now convinced how much thy princess is inferior to my prince?
8599As soon as they had sat down,''Well,''said Abdallah to the king,''how have you been, and how have you passed your time with that infidel sorceress?''
8599At first he thought the crier mad, and to make sure, went to a shop, and said to the merchant, who stood at the door,''Pray, sir, is not that man mad?
8599At the end of the year he took him aside, and said to him,''My son, have you thoroughly considered what I proposed to you last year about marrying?
8599At this answer the furious genie told her,''You are a false woman, and a liar: how came that axe and those cords there?''
8599But how could she get into this tower without my consent?
8599But the robbers most insolently replied,''For what reason would you have us show any respect to the sultan your master?
8599But where shall I find her, and how seek for her?
8599But, madam, may I, without being guilty of rudeness, presume to ask you how you know me?
8599But, madam,''continued he,''let us drop this, and since I have eaten your cake, would you do me the favour to taste mine?''
8599Can not the heads you see on all the gates of this city deter you from such an undertaking?
8599Can you think the son of your sister Gulnare worthy to come in competition with my daughter?
8599Could you conceive a thought only of aspiring in marriage to a princess, the daughter of so great and powerful a king as I am?
8599Do they think it will be so easy to surprise, seize, and secure their persons?
8599Do you mourn for your country, your friends, or your relations?
8599Do you not remember the promise you made to go and see him from time to time?
8599Dost thou think I am as perfidious an elf as thyself, and capable of breaking the solemn oath I have made?
8599He asked me who I was, and by what adventure I came into his dominions?
8599How came that lady hither, and who brought her?''
8599How can he suppose that I should get hold of a man so small, armed as he describes?
8599How could she get in here without my consent?
8599How dare I appear before my princess without her talisman?''
8599I think you told me you had left him behind you in the city of the idolaters: can you tell me what he is doing there?''
8599Instead of answering, the peasant asked the citizen what he would do with him in case he should buy him?
8599Is not this your hatchet, and are not these your cords?''
8599Is there anything you wish for?
8599Pray tell us your history, for it must be extraordinary; how did you venture into this river, and whence did you come?''
8599Prince,''cried he,''do you call so inestimable a present a small token of your gratitude?
8599Prince,''cried she,''do you think I jest with you?
8599Queen Gulnare did not at first comprehend what marriage he meant; but after a little considering, she said,''Of yours, you mean, son?
8599Shall I go down the hills and valleys which I passed over?
8599Shall I wander in darkness?
8599Some moments after, the fairy said to Prince Ahmed,''Prince, here comes my brother; do you see him?''
8599Tell me, I beseech you, how I shall reclaim a disposition so rebellious to my will?''
8599Tell me, I beseech you, where was your discretion, when you imagined to yourself so great an absurdity as you have just now proposed to me?
8599The King of Persia, in great astonishment, said''Madam, can it be possible that you are of royal blood?
8599The captain in his turn demanded of the prince whether he was not a debtor of the King of Ebony?
8599The sultan perceiving his constraint, said to him in a mild way,''Do you know, son, for what reason I have sent for you?''
8599The sultan, astonished at this discourse, turned towards me and asked no more by signs, but in plain words if it was true what his daughter said?
8599Upon this the sultan said again to his daughter,''How do you know that this prince has been transformed by enchantments into an ape?''
8599Upon which, turning to me,''And thou,''said he,''dost thou not know her?''
8599Was not his father a dog, and a son of a dog, like you?
8599We have often asked, Madam, do you want anything?
8599What arms could I make use of to reduce him to submission?''
8599What would she say of you and me?
8599What would you say, cursed genie, if you had seen the beautiful prince that I have just come from seeing?
8599When the captain heard me speak thus,''O heaven,''said he,''whom can we ever trust now- a- days?
8599When the magician had ended, she said,''What does your majesty think of these unheard- of riches of the fairy?
8599Who are you?
8599Who is your sister?
8599Who knows but fortune waits, upon my getting off this dangerous shelf, to compensate my shipwreck with interest?''
8599Who was your father?
8599Why did she come?
8599Why will you still keep to this obstinate silence, which chills me?
8599Will you still refuse me that pleasure I expect from your obedience, and suffer me to die without it?''
8599Would you have him send you away with the same confusion?''
8599Your majesty fears, with great reason, his youth may be corrupted in indolence, but to remedy that do not you think it would be proper to marry him?
8599and is it long that thou hast been in possession of him?''
8599and why you, who live in the same neighbourhood should be so little known by me?''
8599and will my strength bear me out?
8599answered King Beder,''how can I be tired of so many favours and graces as your majesty perpetually heaps upon me?
8599brother, are you then one of those that believe me mad?
8599continued he,''how do I know she is alive?''
8599cried he,''dare you talk to me after this manner, and so much as mention my daughter''s name in my presence?
8599have you the insolence to talk thus to your father and sultan?''
8599is not the King of Persia, who loves and adores you, capable of comforting, and making you amends for the loss of everything in the world?''
8599my queen,''replied Prince Ahmed,''do you say Schaibar is your brother?
8599princes, to what purpose have we undertaken long and fatiguing journeys?
8599replied Queen Gulnare,''is not the Princess Giauhara yet married?
8599replied he,''how do you think I should obtain that favour you wish me?
8599replied the gardener:''do you imagine I will take these riches as mine?
8599said the genie,''he is the cause of thy being in the condition thou art justly in, and yet darest thou say thou dost not know him?''
8599unfortunate wretch, shouldst thou not rather have stayed at home, and quietly enjoyed the fruits of thy labour?''
8599why?''
39560Am I still with thee?
39560And do they remember us still in the old Fatherland?
39560And do you remember, good Hans, what day to- morrow is?
39560And dost thou not remember my threat, and thy demand that I should punish thee if thou shouldst break thy faith?
39560And in the face of all this dread and certain future dost thou still dream of leaving me?
39560And is that all, Vreneli?
39560And may I stay here? 39560 And thou wilt be true to me, Gela, and wait patiently till I come back, and not give thy heart to another?"
39560And what hast thou for thyself, child, if thou givest away thine own share?
39560And who art thou, kind old man?
39560And wouldst thou like to see him now?
39560Are you quite sure that Nazerl is dead? 39560 But Anneli?"
39560But who gave you all this-- this delicious cake and this splendid pie? 39560 But you will be there,"answered Marietta;"and could I wish for any home but yours?"
39560But you will take me with you?
39560Can this sentence, this spell never be broken?
39560Canst thou not?
39560Come, Vreneli, wilt thou not tell me?
39560Did you mourn for me, lady?
39560Do not you remember me? 39560 Do you not know me, revered sir?"
39560Do you not know?
39560Do you promise it, my Helga?
39560Forget it?
39560Hans, dear Hans, where have you come from?
39560Have you any of God''s gifts to spare for a poor wanderer?
39560Helga, Helga,said he gravely,"is this how you have been faithful to your love and your promise?"
39560Helga, fair Helga, why are you so sad?
39560Here, here?
39560How can that be?
39560How can you talk so, Vreneli? 39560 How could I ever rob you of your claim to immortality?"
39560How did it happen? 39560 How do you know all this, Antonio?"
39560How do you know me, O stranger?
39560I thank you, my good child; but what do you fear? 39560 I wish for nothing better,"said the king;"and why should you not?"
39560Indeed,said the farmer angrily;"do you take my house for a beggar''s tavern?
39560Insolent man,he growled,"what hast thou done?
39560Is your master, rich Sämund, not well? 39560 Jesus lives, and I in Him: Where is thy victory, O grave?
39560Knowest thou what thou askest?
39560Look here, sir,said Helga''s father, pointing to the sky,"do you ever see anything like that in your native land?
39560Look into my eyes,she said;"do you think me so ungrateful?
39560Look,said he, as soon as he was able to control himself;"do you see this little red cap?
39560May she not, indeed, you beggar?
39560My child will soon perhaps be motherless, and if he should ever need protection, will you befriend him?
39560My child, you are still alive, you are still on earth?
39560Oh, Margaret, Margaret, why are you so long?
39560Oh, how shall I thank you,she said, grasping his hand,"for bringing me here and satisfying the longing of years?
39560Oh, sir,cried Hans with shining eyes,"will you tell me how things go at home, where you have been more lately than I?
39560One of your mother''s friends,answered the little man kindly;"dost thou not remember what she told thee about us?
39560Puck, dear Puck, can you not save him?
39560Rememberest thou not that summer evening when thou insistedst on coming with me, notwithstanding my warning?
39560Shall I tell you some things about yourself that will prove to you how long I have known you, and how well I am acquainted with your history? 39560 So you did not forget the poor herdsman in your splendid home?"
39560Splendid garments?
39560Then listen: Olaffson is good and brave, is he not?
39560Thinkest thou that thou canst forget thine earthly home here in my kingdom?
39560Thou askest a thing impossible, O Queen,he said at length;"knowest thou not the limits which debar spirits from the deeds of mortals?
39560Through the midst of the enemy?
39560Vanished?
39560Vreneli,said the voice at her side;"Vreneli, whither wilt thou go?"
39560Well, Seppi, what good news do you bring?
39560What am I to do, good Puck?
39560What brings you so late to the mountain?
39560What do I want but freedom, air, and light? 39560 What do you mean?"
39560What does that matter, Vreneli?
39560What dost thou want, Kuno?
39560What is my Helga thinking of?
39560What is wrong, gracious lady?
39560What is wrong, my darling?
39560What is wrong?
39560What is wrong?
39560What was that?
39560What will my father and mother say if I do not come home?
39560What will you do now, my son?
39560What''s the boy after?
39560What''s the matter, Hans? 39560 Whence comest thou?"
39560Whence comest thou?
39560Where are you going so briskly, fair maiden?
39560Where were you yesterday? 39560 Whither?"
39560Who are you?
39560Who art thou?
39560Who art thou?
39560Who does not know the Flower of Iceland?
39560Who dwells in that room with the blinded window?
39560Who knocks?
39560Why art thou so sad to- day, Vreneli?
39560Why didst thou not listen to the voice of thy heart? 39560 Why does fair Helga weep?"
39560Why not, Helga? 39560 Why, Lady Maude,"he cried in angry astonishment,"who is this that you have in your company?
39560Will you be my wife now, fair Helga?
39560Will you go up with me to the surface of the stream?
39560Wilt thou come with me, Vreneli?
39560Would you like to float up and down on my lily- raft?
39560You do n''t mean to say you are Puck, our castle goblin, who has played so many tricks on people that everybody is afraid of him?
39560You here, my dear father? 39560 And are not the white clouds above like eagles circling over their summits? 39560 And are you going away? 39560 And if she had been deceived-- what then? 39560 And now? 39560 And now? 39560 And she? 39560 Are you sure you are not making fun of me, Tony?
39560But before she had time to remonstrate, the little soul said,"Who knocks?"
39560But tell me how you read my heart and learned my love for Tony?
39560But were her tear- filled eyes deceiving her?
39560But what brings thee hither, O Queen?"
39560But what did she see?
39560But what do I ask?
39560But what is that yonder?"
39560But what was all this external beauty in comparison with the blooming world in their own hearts?
39560But where were now its builders?
39560But who art thou, wondrous being, who venturest to stay alone in this solitude, with none save the ocean and yon stern rocks to bear thee company?"
39560Can one then dream such things as those?"
39560Canst thou keep such faith as this with me, O Flower of Iceland?"
39560Canst thou think of the future of thy lover, and of us all, and yet act but for thine own happiness?"
39560Could it be that her husband had been so near, while she believed him far away?
39560Could it be the crystal castle which he thought he had left far behind?
39560Could one of these marble towers attempt to rival the jagged glacier peaks when they shone with the purple of the evening sky?
39560Could one of those musical sounds be compared with Anneli''s voice when she said,"I am so glad you have come, dear Hans"?
39560Could you find me a better son, or yourself a more loving husband?
39560Did I not give in to you about that boy over there?
39560Did I not hear the young man''s oath, and see how love and hope had driven sorrow from thy heart?
39560Did I not see thee on the mountain side beneath the cross?
39560Did Margaret give you all that?"
39560Did he step down on them, or did they, rising upwards, offer themselves to his foot?
39560Did the Flower of Iceland now regain its freshness and bloom?
39560Did the lotos flower think so?
39560Did they lie sleeping in the depths of the ocean?
39560Did you not see how pale and motionless he lay?"
39560Did you not tell me that you had never troubled your head about her, and that you had always wished to marry me?
39560Do I not love you better than any one in the whole world?
39560Do you not acknowledge Iceland to be the most beautiful country in the world?"
39560Do you think I could disappoint your hopes of immortality?"
39560Dost thou know the fate that now awaits thee, Helga?"
39560Dost thou still mistrust me, Vreneli?"
39560Dost thou think that thy care and watchfulness could have kept the dangers of the mountains far from thy roof and from thy herds?
39560Dost thou think thyself unknown to me?
39560Had a dream mocked him?
39560Had earth really such beauties, and was she permitted to gaze on them?
39560Had she descended to the music of her golden harp into the cold billows?
39560Has he not yet submitted to his fate?"
39560Have you anything against him?
39560Have you forgotten your oath beneath the lonely cross on the mountain?
39560How did this stranger, who seemed to come from some distant land-- how could he know her name?
39560How many had gone by?
39560Is anything wrong?"
39560Is he not brave and good?
39560Is he not young, handsome, and strong?
39560Is it any wonder then that he forgot his bleak, unmusical home-- that he never gave it one longing thought?
39560Is it not my duty to leave all these beautiful things here and return to him?"
39560Just think now; does n''t Margaret always threaten to call me when you wo n''t go to sleep at once at night?"
39560Only look how they nod their gleaming heads; does it not seem as if you could hear a mysterious rustling among their branches?
39560Seest thou how the cloud above the waterfall is gleaming rosy red?
39560Shall I tell you how often I have seen you sitting on your mother''s grave, and what images there passed before your mind?
39560Tell me, are you influenced in this matter by those foolish dreams, the wild images of your brain?
39560The Countess awoke, looked in amazement on the queer little figure, and asked at length,"Who are you, little man?"
39560Then a voice of wondrous sweetness sounded suddenly in her ear,"Why does fair Helga weep?"
39560Then my meeting with you was not a dream?
39560These eyes, this voice, could they have spoken to her only in a feverish dream?
39560Tony is good and truer than gold, and did he not swear to me beneath the cross?"
39560Was it that the shadows of the past, or visions of a bloody future, rose from the gleaming waves?
39560Was it these feathered songsters that made the sweet music which floated with the sunbeams and the soft spring air all through this lovely place?
39560Was it to call up more easily the old long- forgotten scenes, or to hide the hot tears which started to his eyes?
39560Was the azure Italian sky, of which she had so often dreamt, coming here to meet her?
39560Was the dream of his childhood now really fulfilled-- was he going to look through the magic mirror into the heart of the mountains?
39560Was the fairy king''s wife not happy?
39560Was there not some one sitting there now?
39560What could come of it but a father''s blessing, with its fruits of happiness and peace?"
39560What has all our prudence done for us?
39560What is that?"
39560What were these eyes like?
39560What''s the news in your mountains?"
39560Where will you go?"
39560Why did not Tony come, as he had said he would?
39560Why did the goat- herd refuse to take the daily bunch of violets, in return for which she might have hoped for some message from Tony?
39560Why may I not get out every day?"
39560Why was the old farmer so gloomy?
39560Why, then, did Haco still stand lost in thought?--why did he gaze down gloomily into the river depths?
39560Will you?"
39560Wilt thou come with me?"
39560Would you like that, Maude?"
39560Would you not be better in a warm bed?"
39560and shall I never be obliged to leave this splendour?"
39560answered the Countess sadly,"I am so ill myself, can I be of any use to another?"
39560answered the little one merrily;"do n''t you hear the music?"
39560asked the old man;"canst thou not confide in one who means well towards thee, and who has both the power and the desire to help thee?
39560cried the little prisoner;"mother, is it you?"
39560do you not hear anything?"
39560how camest thou hither, beloved flower?
39560or did she go to rule as queen in the kingdom of dwarfs?
39560said the child''s soul at length,"why can not I rise into the kingdom of light?
39560said the father sorrowfully;"into what hands have you fallen?"
39560she asked, in gentle astonishment;"and what seekest thou here on this world- forsaken shore?"
39560she exclaimed, turning in surprise to the noble lady;"how shall I thank you?"
39560she said at length;"and are there yet any halls remaining of Hrungnir''s castle?"
39560she said quietly,"whither?
39560where are you hiding?
39560where had he seen those features?
39560why must I linger far away from my heavenly home, and pine down below in that dark dungeon?"
47285And further, O my mother,he said,"I wish now that thou go thyself to the Sultan and put my request to him, for am I not thy child?
47285And that is?
47285And what price did he pay you?
47285Art thou a man?
47285Art thou mad, my son?
47285But, O my beloved,he replied,"art thou sure that the Lamp is in his bosom?"
47285But, O my son,answered she in dismay,"what can I say to him?
47285Can it be that my husband''s brother did not die after all, or that he has risen from the grave? 47285 Canst thou direct me to a khan for shelter?"
47285Canst thou not recognise thy mother?
47285Canst thou not use the bow?
47285Come, come,said Aladdin, smoothing her raven hair,"thou hast succeeded: wherefore weep?
47285Darest thou address the Prince of the Faithful so?
47285Did not Abu- l- Hasan come to me, plucking his beard and smiting his breast, and saying,''Nuzhet- el- Fuad is dead?'' 47285 Did you sell any of this kind to the Jew?"
47285Hast thou jewels enough?
47285Hast thou not heard that the Grand Vizier''s son is to take to himself this evening the beautiful Bedr- el- Budur? 47285 Hast thou still some further need?"
47285Hast thou then suffered at my hands?
47285Hath he accepted the jewels? 47285 Hath the Sultan considered thy request?"
47285How can an ape possess such skill in the writing and rounding of a verse?
47285How can he ask thee that,answered Aladdin,"when the jewels in the bowl are crying out my state and my condition?
47285How now, O my mother?
47285I am here, O my master; what is thy wish?
47285Impossible?
47285Is not his state already grievous enough that thou must invoke a worse fate upon him?
47285Is not this offence enough?
47285Is not this the tailor''s son?
47285Is there any gold?
47285Is thy bitterness of feeling gone? 47285 Know ye not that this is a desolate coast, and none has ever been seen upon it?"
47285Nay, O my mother,answered Bedr- el- Budur,"dost thou doubt me?
47285Nay, nay, O my mother,protested Aladdin;"it were wiser to keep them, for did not the Slave of the Ring deliver me from death?
47285O King of the Age,he said,"doth thy Felicity now believe that the palace and all Aladdin''s wealth were the work of sorcery?"
47285O King,he said,"thinkest thou that such a thing as this could be done save by the vilest of sorcery?
47285O Sindbad,he said,"this King must be exceedingly wealthy and powerful; what sayest thou?"
47285O brother mine,I replied,"I see here a melon, but where is the knife?"
47285O brother,he said to me,"wilt thou in thy kindness cut me up a water melon, and sprinkle it with sugar?"
47285O my Lord,he said, green with envy,"rich though these things be, thinkest thou they are worth one single curl of thy daughter''s head?
47285O my lord,I said,"and the stranger that sojourneth with thee: if his wife die, do ye treat him in like manner?"
47285O my mother,he said;"is this all the Sultan requireth?
47285O my son,cried the Sultan as Aladdin greeted him,"why didst thou not let my jewellers complete the niche in the kiosk?
47285O my son,she cried in despair,"wilt thou bring me into thy madness?
47285O my son,she exclaimed, weeping,"said I not to thee that the Grand Vizier was thine enemy?
47285O our Master and Prince,they said,"why hast thou tarried so long?
47285On the head and the eye?
47285Sayest thou so?
47285Shall we return, O my uncle?
47285Sire,said she,"why dost thou summon me thus into the presence of men?"
47285Tell me, how doth this accursed man treat thee?
47285Tell me, young man,he said,"what is thy name, that on a future occasion I may return thy hospitality?"
47285Tell me,I said,"what is the history of this mountain?"
47285Tell me,he asked again presently,"where doth this accursed keep the Lamp?"
47285Tell me,he said,"who am I, and where am I?"
47285Then,went on Abu- l- Hasan,"she will weep with thee, for have I not found favour in her eyes?
47285These,I said,"are mine, and forty priceless damsels are also mine: what Sultan can compare with me?"
47285Thou knowest me: what is thy desire?
47285Uncle,she said;"what is abroad in the city that the people close their shops and place candles and garlands in their windows?"
47285Well,said the Sultan,"where is thy palace?
47285What ails thee?
47285What is that bundle thou hast under thine arm?
47285What is thy plan?
47285What is thy suit?
47285What is thy thought on this, O Vizier?
47285What is thy will, O Prince of the Faithful?
47285What is thy wish, O my master?
47285What is thy wish, O my master?
47285What is thy wish? 47285 What now, O my son?"
47285What sayest thou, O Vizier?
47285What sayest thou?
47285What sayest thou?
47285What strange thing is this?
47285What?
47285Where hast thou been, my son?
47285Where is Aladdin?
47285Where is this tomb of which thou speakest?
47285Wherefore should I slay this woman, who hath done me no injury, and whom I have never seen before?
47285Wherefore this?
47285Wherefore, O my son?
47285Wherefore, O my uncle?
47285Who art thou, and what doest thou here?
47285Who art thou, miserable old woman?
47285Wilt thou not help me?
47285Wouldst thou like to be a merchant?
47285After some days he called me to him and said,"Art thou skilled in any art or trade?"
47285Am I not thine uncle, and have I not said it?
47285Am I now Abu- l- Hasan dreaming I am the Khalifeh, or was I, last night and heretofore for many nights, the Khalifeh dreaming he was Abu- l- Hasan?"
47285And are there such radiant maidens even in the Fragrant Paradise?"
47285And did I not cleave the hillside with my incantations?
47285And hath he risen to a high position through the Lamp and the Slave of the Lamp?"
47285And is it not thy duty to perform this office for me?"
47285And my daughter, where is she?
47285And the Sultan answered with a charming smile,"O my son, thou art too generous; but who could refuse thee anything?"
47285And, what is more to me, where is my daughter?"
47285And, whenever Aladdin thanked his uncle for his kindness, the Dervish replied,"Nay, boy; am I not thine uncle?
47285Art thou not the tailor''s son?"
47285Besides all this, O my son, how shall I even gain access to the Sultan''s presence for this purpose without bearing a rich gift to offer him?
47285But Aladdin''s face told him nothing; so he enquired,"What price do you ask, O my master?"
47285But how shalt thou approach the Sultan in thy merchant''s garments?
47285But is not thy promise worth most of all?
47285But what desert place had I come to by this daring misadventure?
47285But when he heard the name"Aladdin,"and the fame attached to it, he muttered to himself,"Can this be he?
47285Everything?
47285Give me, I pray thee, a little space of time-- two days; and when my eyes are dim with weeping for Aladdin--""Two days?
47285Had he gone mad?
47285Hast thou a plan which is not a trick?
47285Hast thou ever, from first to last, beheld a palace like this?"
47285Hast thou not an old lamp so that we might test him and see whether his cry be true or false?"
47285Hath he refused the jewels, and thy head still on thy shoulders?"
47285Having waited so long, surely thou canst wait another--""Day?
47285He appeared to take thought for a moment, and then he said:"Thou wilt swear that thou lovest not this man?"
47285How camest thou hither?"
47285How can I marry another when this very day I depart this life?"
47285How can my son do this?
47285How hast thou hid from me so long?"
47285How should he reach it?
47285I said,"Tell me why is this: that ye bury the living with the dead?"
47285I then took steps to separate them, but who can lock love out?
47285Immediately the Efrite stepped out of the unseen and stood before him, saying,"Thou hast invoked me: what is thy desire?
47285In a flash the Slave of the Ring appeared and standing before him, said,"O my master, what is thy desire?"
47285Is it clear to thee, my son?"
47285Is not thy heart with us?"
47285Is there aught else thou dost desire?"
47285Is there, perchance, one amongst them who is a skilled caligraphist?''
47285Knowest thou aught of her?"
47285Knowest thou not that the King of this city is thy father''s greatest enemy, having a blood- debt against him?
47285Knowest thou not that, to- day, they will bury my wife, and that they will bury me also in the same tomb with her?
47285Meanwhile, do you all agree to what I have proposed?"
47285Methinks I dream, or--"he went on, half to himself,--"Can it be?
47285My guest-- he bade me drink and-- what subtle enchantment is this?
47285Page 169]"What is my offence?"
47285Peradventure another bowl of jewels?"
47285Said I not to thee that the Grand Vizier was thine enemy?
47285Seeing this, he rallied me and said,"Art thou dumb?
47285Shall we admit them?"
47285She hastened home to Aladdin, who, when he saw her with the bowl of jewels just as when she departed, cried,"What is this, O my mother?
47285Tell me, O Vizier, have I in my treasury a single jewel that will compare with even the smallest of these?"
47285The Efrite saw her look, and cried,"Is it not enough?
47285The Executioner set forth running at full speed, and no sooner was he gone than the Khalifeh said to Zubeydeh,"Wilt thou make me a wager?"
47285Then she questioned him, saying,"O my son, was not this the same Efrite that appeared to thee when thou wast in the cavern?"
47285Then the being spoke:"Thou hast invoked me; what is thy wish?"
47285Then, O my mother, if I place in thy hands an offering richer than any King in the world can make to any other, wilt thou carry out my desire?"
47285Then, addressing the woman, he said:"Hast thou chosen?"
47285Then, gradually, arose a great cry of wonder and astonishment, which spread throughout the city: Had the King chosen an ape for his Grand Vizier?
47285Then, seeing that they were perplexed, I shouted in my excitement,"Do you not hear me?
47285Therefore, to preserve my honour in Zubeydeh''s eyes, is it not proper that_ thou_ be dead?"
47285Thou canst do this?"
47285What ails thee?
47285What dost thou desire me to do?"
47285What gift wilt thou send the wedded pair?
47285What hast thou done for thy country, or what are thy vast possessions that the Sultan should reward thee with his daughter?"
47285What is his condition and state of life?''"
47285What is it, O my mother?"
47285What is thy desire?"
47285What marvellous thing was this?
47285What say you, O my sisters?"
47285What sayest thou?
47285What sayest thou?"
47285What stranger could refuse?
47285What thinkest thou, my son?"
47285What was he not going to do for me?
47285When, presently, he regained his senses, he sat up and cried out,"What have I done, O my uncle, that thou shouldst strike me?"
47285Where hast thou been, and where is thine uncle?"
47285Where were the slave girls?
47285Which is easier: for the Khalifeh to play the merchant, or the merchant to play the Khalifeh?
47285Who will exchange old lamps for new?"
47285Who will exchange old lamps for new?"
47285Why had he not already won this as well as her love by means of the Lamp?
47285Will you grace it with your presence?"
47285Wilt thou not have the palace whole?"
47285Wilt thou still commit the crime of unfaithfulness with thine eye?"
47285Ye doubt me?
47285and has not the Slave of the Lamp brought us delicious food when we were hungry?"
47285he cried;"did we not swear never to cross one another''s path?"
47285he gasped;"have I attained to the fragrant Paradise, or do I dream?"
47285he was shouting;"am I not the Prince of the Faithful?"
47285my son, of a truth thou art favoured by fate; for how else could''st thou escape so great a peril?
47285said Nuzhat- el- Fuad, eagerly,"proceed-- what then?"
47285said the King,"this excellent work done by an ape?"
47285said the lady, regarding me intently,"or art thou an Efrite?"
47285whither shall I flee for safety?"
47285why dost thou laugh?"
37431A VOICE(_ outside._) Is this the cluster you wish, Miss Bennet?
37431A glass of wine?
37431A letter?
37431After a little he speaks in a voice of forced calmness._] And that is all the reply which I am to have the honour of expecting?
37431All out at once?
37431And can you likewise declare that there is no foundation for it?
37431And do we hold the same opinion of Colonel Fitzwilliam?
37431And in your list of weaknesses do you include such faults as vanity and pride, for instance?
37431And is Mr. Wickham still with the regiment?
37431And is not the power to be generous the highest reward that can be given to any accomplishment?
37431And never allow yourself to be blinded by prejudice?
37431And pray what sort of a guardian do you make?
37431And she is looking poorly?
37431And so you are a great reader and take no pleasure in anything else?
37431And then what is to become of us all?
37431And we shall be friends still?
37431And what am I to do on the occasion?
37431And what has been done, or attempted, to recover your sister?
37431And what is your success?
37431And where are they?
37431And will not you tell me what lady has the credit of inspiring such reflections?
37431And you know Colonel Fitzwilliam?
37431Any criticisms?
37431Are any of them out?
37431Are n''t you glad to see us?
37431Are the shades of Pemberley to be thus polluted?
37431Are they really married, papa?
37431Are you consulting your own feelings in the present case, or do you imagine that you are gratifying mine?
37431Are you quite ready to go, Mr. Collins?
37431Are you still there?
37431Are you, indeed?
37431As Mr. Wickham?
37431At once?
37431Books?
37431But how about your clothes?
37431But how could I have anticipated the arrival here of two very attentive young gentlemen?
37431But how could that be?
37431But how did it happen, Lizzy?
37431But how would you ever have explained things to Charlotte and Mr. Collins without his help?
37431But in this case who was the tempter?
37431But my uncle did not do it all?
37431But were they so violently in love?
37431But what can have induced Mr. Darcy to behave so cruelly?
37431But what is Mr. Collins here for, mamma?
37431But what is he doing here?
37431But where are they?
37431But, papa, how did you persuade them to marry?
37431Can I speak plainer?
37431Can not you let the poor man alone?
37431Can you deny that you have done this?
37431Can you see Sir William Lucas''place from the garden?
37431Care of him?
37431Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority of your connections?
37431Did I say that?
37431Did not I, Darcy?
37431Did she see much of the Bingleys in London?
37431Did you enjoy your walk?
37431Did you know that Netherfield Park is let at last?
37431Did_ you_, Sir William?
37431Do all the people hereabouts know that I am married?
37431Do n''t you think so?
37431Do not you enjoy the reel, Miss Bennet?
37431Do not you see that honour, decorum-- nay, interest, forbid you marrying my nephew?
37431Do not you think my dear Charlotte is most fortunately placed, Miss Elizabeth?
37431Do not you think so, Mr. Collins?
37431Do not you think so, Mr. Darcy?
37431Do we owe all this to Darcy?
37431Do you agree with your friend, Mr. Darcy?
37431Do you agree?
37431Do you know where he is?
37431Do you know where it is?
37431Do you not know that such a report is spread about?
37431Do you pay no regard to the wishes of his friends?
37431Do you realise the honour which is so soon to fall upon our humble home, and our gratefully humble selves?
37431Do you talk by rule then?
37431Do you then pretend to be ignorant of it?
37431Do you think it incredible that Mr. Collins should be able to procure_ any_ woman''s good opinion, because he was not so happy as to succeed with you?
37431Do you think that any man in his proper senses would marry Lydia on so slight a temptation as one hundred a year?
37431Do you wish me to do so?
37431Does your charge give you much trouble?
37431For me?
37431Has all gone as you could wish?
37431Has he-- has my nephew made you an offer of marriage?
37431Has your governess left you?
37431Have they already opened?
37431Have you anything else to propose for my domestic felicity?
37431Have you anything to suggest?
37431Have you refused Mr. Collins?
37431Have you seen him?
37431Have you told us all?
37431How are they ever to be discovered?
37431How can I help being excited?
37431How can it affect them?
37431How can you be so teasing?
37431How can you talk so?
37431How did she ever manage to persuade your father?
37431How do you do, Mrs. Bennet?
37431How is one- half such a sum to be repaid?
37431How is such a man to be worked on?
37431How long has Mr. Darcy been in Hertfordshire, Miss Elizabeth?
37431How long has she been such a favourite?
37431How so?
37431How_ dare_ she give you such distress?
37431I am sorry to hear that; but why did not you tell me so before?
37431I promised them as faithfully-- what will Wickham say?
37431I-- mamma?
37431If Miss King does not object to it, why should we?
37431In what imaginary act of friendship can you here defend yourself?
37431Is it not so, Mrs. Bennet?
37431Is my cap straight?
37431Is n''t that rather a dangerous trait, Miss Bennet?
37431Is not accomplishment its own reward?
37431Is not general incivility the very essence of love?
37431Is not it wonderful?
37431Is that his design in settling here?
37431Is there any message, sir, which I could take from you to my honoured patroness-- your aunt, or to your fair cousin-- Miss de Bourg?
37431Is there any new trouble?
37431Is this true?
37431Is what you have told me certain-- absolutely certain?
37431It is hard to ask you to shorten your visit, but we are in such distress that----"[_ Darting from her seat._] Oh where-- where is the express?
37431Jane, when is your next ball?
37431Lizzy, what is the meaning of all this?
37431Lizzy-- out walking with Mr. Collins?
37431Lizzy?
37431Lydia, my love, where is your sister?
37431Mamma, have you heard the news?
37431Marry your Charlotte?
37431May I ask to what these questions lead?
37431May I have the honour, Miss Bennet?
37431May I have the honour, Miss Elizabeth?
37431May I hope, Madam, for your interest with your fair daughter Jane, in the matter on which we were speaking yesterday?
37431May not I have_ one_, as my reward, Miss Bennet?
37431May not I read the letter, Lizzy?
37431Miss Bennet, do you know who I am?
37431Miss Bennet, will you grant me the happiness?
37431Miss Bingley, may I have the pleasure?
37431My dear Hill, have you heard the news?
37431My dear Madam, can it be possible that you are to be honoured by a visit from him?
37431My habiliments-- I would not be wanting in respect.--What shall I do?
37431Now what have you got to say?
37431Of Lydia?
37431Of marrying?
37431Of what are you talking?
37431Oh, Mr. Darcy-- would you be so good as to go to Charles?
37431Oh, he has a sister?
37431Oh, yes-- let me fetch you a cup of tea?
37431Pray what is your age, Miss Bennet?
37431Pray when am I to wish you joy?
37431Say nothing of that-- who should suffer but myself?
37431Shall I call her now?
37431Shall I call the maid, Miss Bennet?
37431Shall I get it for you?
37431So Charlotte has told you, has she?
37431Tell me once for all-- are you engaged to my nephew?
37431The country is a vast deal pleasanter than London, is not it, Mr. Bingley?
37431The present always occupies you in such scenes, does it?
37431Then who taught you?
37431Was not this some excuse for incivility, if I was uncivil?
37431Well, Mr. Collins, are we to congratulate each other?
37431Well, what is it, mamma?
37431Well, where is she?
37431What advantage can it be to you to offend Mr. Darcy?
37431What are they going to do?
37431What can be the matter?
37431What can you have to say on this subject?
37431What could your Ladyship propose by it?
37431What do you mean?
37431What has happened?
37431What has the size to do with it?
37431What have you done with Mr. Collins?
37431What is Mr. Darcy to me, pray, that I should be afraid of him?
37431What is it?
37431What is the matter?
37431What is the matter?
37431What is to become of us, mamma?
37431What news, mamma?
37431What right has my aunt to meddle in my affairs?
37431What should not you mind?
37431What were those French words he said to me as he went out, Lizzy?
37431What would you wish me to do?
37431What?
37431What_ has_ been going on, Sir William?
37431What_ have_ you been doing?
37431When did he come?
37431When will they be here?
37431Where are you going?
37431Where is Lizzy?
37431Where is he, Harris?
37431Where is my soothing draught?
37431Where will you match the wit and vivacity of Miss Elizabeth Bennet?
37431Who that knows what his misfortunes have been can help feeling an interest in him?
37431Why can you see no good in Mr. Darcy, Lizzy?
37431Why did n''t_ you_ go, Jane?
37431Why did not you seek legal redress?
37431Why do n''t you take the boxes in, Harris?
37431Why do you never come to Meryton, Miss Lydia?
37431Why does papa have a cousin like that?
37431Why should you be so surprised?
37431Why was your cousin to be the judge?
37431Why, who in the world is going to marry_ her_?
37431Why-- what?--Why do you suppose Miss Darcy is likely to give us any uneasiness, Miss Bennet?
37431Wickham, have you seen my pink- flowered bandbox?
37431Will not you come into the house, Madam?
37431Will you be so kind?
37431Will you be so kind?
37431Will you kindly step this way for a moment?
37431Will you present me?
37431Will your Ladyship not take some refreshment?
37431Would n''t it, Mr. Denny?
37431You are rather disposed to call his interference officious?
37431You are sure, Lizzy?
37431You are sure?
37431You are then resolved to have him?
37431You are very cautious, I suppose, as to its being created?
37431You have really called upon him?
37431You have sisters, have not you?
37431You know my nephew, Mr. Darcy?
37431You really wish to return home at once?
37431You see my nephews here often, Miss Bennet?
37431Your suspicions?
37431[_ After a pause._] Are you much acquainted with Mr. Darcy?
37431[_ After a slight pause and laying down her knitting._] My dear Mr. Bennet, did not you hear me?
37431[_ Angrily._] And do you expect_ me_ to rejoice in your proposal that I ally myself to the conceit and impertinence of_ yours_?
37431[_ Anxiously._] Are you sure it is true?
37431[_ Appearing in the garden._] What is the matter, Miss Bennet?
37431[_ Approaching from the ball- room._] Do not you feel a great inclination, Miss Bennet, to seize such an opportunity of dancing a reel?
37431[_ Archly._] Is_ that_ by your permission?
37431[_ Changing the subject._] And you say that Jane is not in her usual spirits?
37431[_ Coaxingly._] Mamma, might we not_ all_ go to Brighton?
37431[_ Coldly._] Common danger?
37431[_ Curiously, and with ill- concealed anxiety._] What is it you mean?
37431[_ Entering._] Miss Bennet?
37431[_ Enters at the door leading to the hall._] May I speak to you, Madam?
37431[_ Enters, flurried, and looks about her._] Well, have they gone?
37431[_ Fretfully._] How can I feel better?
37431[_ Greatly amused at all this excitement._] Are you going to make any change in your dress, Charlotte?
37431[_ Greatly moved._] What is it, my dear Miss Bennet?
37431[_ Holding out the basket._] And these radishes, my dear?
37431[_ Impatiently._] Do not you want to know who has taken it?
37431[_ In amazement._] Mr. Darcy?
37431[_ Looking about her._] Where is Lizzy?
37431[_ Looking at Elizabeth affectionately and wistfully._] And you will come to visit me sometimes?
37431[_ Pompously again._] Excuse me, Miss Elizabeth, on what subject did you ask my opinion?
37431[_ Quickly._] What do you mean?
37431[_ Relieved._] And will you promise me never to enter into such an engagement?
37431[_ Sharply._] Going on?
37431[_ Shyly._] Lizzy, have you heard that Mr. Bingley is back in Netherfield?
37431[_ Sinking upon the garden seat, overwhelmed._] Can it be possible?
37431[_ Slyly._] Who knows?
37431[_ Smiling mischievously._] Would not you also like to see the chimneys, Mr. Darcy?
37431[_ Smiling._] Do you often dance at St. James?
37431[_ Smiling._] Indeed?
37431[_ Smiling._] What think you of books?
37431[_ Starting from his absorption._] Eh?
37431[_ Suddenly she calls again._] Oh, Colonel Fitzwilliam, is that you?
37431[_ Surprised._] Indeed?
37431[_ Sympathetically._] Are they really going?
37431[_ The girls make low curtsies-- the gentlemen bow._] Will not you be seated, gentlemen?
37431[_ The men leave the room._] Well, Darcy, do you approve of the arrangements?
37431[_ To the young men._] Will not you be seated, gentlemen?
37431[_ Trying to speak calmly._] And what arts did he use to separate them?
37431[_ Trying to suppress her feeling._] Did Mr. Darcy give you his reasons for this interference?
37431[_ Walking up and down the room with quick steps._] And this is your opinion of me?
37431[_ Wildly._] Oh, Colonel Fitzwilliam-- the express-- or can you get me a carriage?
35862An''are you sorry for our agreement?
35862An''what are you doing with that box and dice I see in your hand?
35862An''where would I get em''but in the heads of your own sheep? 35862 And do you blame me, master?"
35862And do you say no more nor that?
35862And how did you know there were six, you poor innocent?
35862And how did you like the sport?
35862And where will I look for''em?
35862And who else should I mean? 35862 And who wo n''t you have, may I be so bold as to ask?"
35862And will you direct me to where she dwells? 35862 Are you doing any soothsaying?"
35862Are you making game of me, man; what else have I to stake?
35862Are you strong?
35862Are you wishful to hang me a third time?
35862Art thou shaved man?
35862Blood and fury,he shouted;"how is this?
35862Blur- an- agers, how came ye to know about my goose?
35862But will you gi''e me all the ground the goose flew over?
35862Call that a trick?
35862Dear me,said Tom,"but is n''t it surprising to hear the stone- chatters singing so late in the season?"
35862Devil a one of me knows,said Tom;"but of malt, I suppose, what else?"
35862Did you ever see Fin?
35862Do n''t you see her there away from you?
35862Do you see that black thing at the end of the field?
35862Have n''t you chariot and horses and hounds?
35862Have you any more to stake?
35862He''ll do well enough,said one;"but who''s to mind him whilst we''re away, who''ll turn the fire, who''ll see that he does n''t burn?"
35862Heardst thou ever the like?
35862How could I go?
35862How could I kill you,asked the king''s son,"after what you have done for me?"
35862How did you forget?
35862How do you know that?
35862I am King O''Toole,says he,"prince and plennypennytinchery of these parts,"says he;"but how came ye to know that?"
35862I know that you are a great rascal; and where did you get the eyes?
35862I suppose,said the Lepracaun, very civilly,"you have no further occasion for me?"
35862I''ll give you whatever you ask,says the king"is n''t that fair?"
35862I''m much obleeged to you: where is the baste and yourself going?
35862I''m sure I beg your pardon,said my grandfather,"but might I ask you a question?"
35862If thy father had that rod,says the giant,"what would he do with it?"
35862Indeed it is, honest man,replied Oonagh;"God save you kindly-- won''t you be sitting?"
35862Is it a story you want?
35862Is it a tinker you are?
35862Is it fearing I wo n''t pay you, you are?
35862Is it fighting you''ve been? 35862 Is it me myself, you mean?"
35862Is it you, Donald?
35862Is it you,said she,"that were there?"
35862Is that the way you''re leaving me?
35862Is there any other young woman in the house?
35862Is this the way you are mending the path, Jack?
35862Is thy daughter mine now?
35862It''s daybreak that''s the matter; do n''t you see light yonder?
35862Jack, you anointed scoundrel, what do you mean?
35862Jack, you vagabone, do you see what the cows are at?
35862Jewels, do you say? 35862 May your hand turn into a pig''s foot with you when you think of tying the rope; why should you speak of hanging me?"
35862Never welcome you in,cried the captain of the guard,"did n''t we hang you this minute, and what brings you here?"
35862Now, O Conall,said the king,"were you ever in a harder place than to be seeing your lot of sons hanged to- morrow?
35862Now,said he to the story- teller,"what kind of animal would you rather be, a deer, a fox, or a hare?
35862Now,said the lank, grey beggarman,"has any one a mind to run after the dog and on the course?"
35862Now,said the raven,"see you that house yonder?
35862Now,says he,"she''ll be without talk any more; now, Guleesh, what good will she be to you when she''ll be dumb?
35862O Guleesh, is n''t that a nice turn you did us, and we so kind to you? 35862 O musha, mother,"says Jack,"why do you ax me that question?
35862Oonagh,said he,"can you do nothing for me?
35862So the sea- maiden put up his head(_ Who do you mean? 35862 So,"says Tom to the king,"will you let me have the other half of the princess if I bring you the flail?"
35862Sure, I''m looking for the heifers, poor things?
35862Thank you ma''am,says he, sitting down;"you''re Mrs. M''Coul, I suppose?"
35862The host,they cried;"what do you want with the host?
35862There is gloom on your face, girl,said the youth;"what do you here?"
35862This is the third time, and who knows what luck you may have? 35862 To be sure, you lazy sluggard, I do?"
35862To whom art thou talking, my son?
35862Troutie, bonny little fellow,said she,"am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
35862Troutie, bonny little fellow,said she,"am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
35862Was n''t that a fine haul we made at the Lord of Dunlavin''s?
35862Well, honest man,says the king,"and how is it you make your money so aisy?"
35862Well, maybe you''d be civil enough to tell_ us_ what you''ve got in the pitcher there?
35862Well, well,cried them all, when he came within hearing,"any chance of our property?"
35862Well, what about_ them_?
35862Well, what of them?
35862What are you doing there, you rascal?
35862What are you doing, you contrary thief?
35862What canst thou do?
35862What colour do you want the mare to be?
35862What could I do with the twelve iron ones for myself or my master? 35862 What gift,"said his wife,"would you give me that I could make you laugh?"
35862What is the good of that? 35862 What is the reason of your journey?"
35862What like are these men when seen, if we were to see them?
35862What men are these you refer to?
35862What news have you to- day?
35862What news the day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What news to- day?
35862What piercing, shrill cry is that-- the most melodious my ear ever heard, and the shrillest that ever struck my heart of all the cries I ever heard?
35862What purse is that you are talking about?
35862What reason had you to strike the man who won my daughter?
35862What reward would you give me for sending plenty of fish to you?
35862What robe will you wear?
35862What scoundrel struck that blow?
35862What suitor is that?
35862What work can ye do?
35862What would bring them there?
35862What''ll you take for that hide?
35862What''s the matter, friends?
35862What''s the matter? 35862 What''s the matter?"
35862What''s the reward for putting it back in the bundle as it was before?
35862What''s the reward you would ask?
35862When he felt the birds calling in the morning, and knew that the day was, he said--''Art thou sleeping? 35862 When will he be here?"
35862Whence come you, and what is your craft?
35862Whence comest thou, maiden?
35862Where did I get it, is it? 35862 Where is the water, wife?"
35862Where will I look for them?
35862Where? 35862 Who are you, my good man?"
35862Who deluded you? 35862 Who else took the head off the beast but you?"
35862Who else?
35862Who has dared to interfere with my fighting pet?
35862Who is there?
35862Who is this beauty, and where is she to be seen, when she was not seen before till you saw her, if you did see her?
35862Who knows,they replied,"who committed the crime?"
35862Who should take the heads off the knot but the man that put the heads on?
35862Who then?
35862Who then?
35862Who then?
35862Why do n''t you come to breakfast, my dear?
35862Why should n''t I be satisfied?
35862Why,said Conall,"should not I do the pleasure of the king, though there should be no souls of my sons in dread at all?
35862Will you give a body a taste of your beer?
35862Will you give me the first son you have?
35862Will you not put out,said Silver- tree,"your little finger through the key- hole, so that your own mother may give a kiss to it?"
35862Will you play again?
35862Will you play again?
35862Will you take a gold piece?
35862Will you take me?
35862Would you tell a body,says the cock that was perched on the ass''s head,"who was it that opened the door for the robbers the other night?"
35862You home- spun shoe carle, do you think I am fit to be your thrall?
35862You wo n''t go back o''your word?
35862You would not cheat the poor man, would you?
35862You, you poor creature what good would you do?
35862''Hast thou boiled that youngster for me?''
35862''Play up with you, why should you be silent?
35862''Strike up with you,''said the head bard,''why should we be still?
35862A Legend of Knockmany What Irish man, woman, or child has not heard of our renowned Hibernian Hercules, the great and glorious Fin M''Coul?
35862A while after this he called again:"Are you asleep?"
35862After some more talk the king says,"What are you?"
35862After they had gone and were out of sight, the henwife came to the kitchen and said:"Well, my dear, are you for church to- day?"
35862After they had gone, the henwife came in and asked:"Will you go to church to- day?"
35862Ah, now, could n''t you take me with you?"
35862Ah, will any of you pull a bed of dry grass for me?
35862And again the mighty voice thundered:"Do you see this great chest of mine?"
35862And if she asks you,''Were you at the battle of the birds?''
35862And now tell me what dress will you have?"
35862And she said to me''What brought you here?''
35862And the giant asked him,"Where is thy father when he has that brave rod?"
35862And the voice said:"Do you see this great head of mine?"
35862And what do you think I made it of?"
35862And when its neck was shown, the thundering voice came again and said:"Do you see this great neck of mine?"
35862Are you in need of soothsaying?"
35862Are you satisfied, Guleesh, and will you do what we''re telling you?"
35862Are you sorry for hiring me, master?"
35862Are you sorry for it?"
35862Are you sorry for our agreement?"
35862At last they stood still, and a man of them said to Guleesh:"Guleesh, do you know where you are now?"
35862But about the time when he should drive the cattle homewards, who should he see coming but a great giant with a sword in his hand?
35862But does that hare come here still?"
35862But have you seen her, and are Deirdre''s hue and complexion as before?"
35862Connachar came out in haste and cried with wrath;"Who is there on the floor of fight, slaughtering my men?"
35862Deirdre heard the voice, and said to her foster- mother,"O foster- mother, what cry is that?"
35862Did I not hear you speaking to the king''s son in the palace to- night?
35862Did n''t you see the gold with your own two eyes?"
35862Did you never hear tell of the Danes?"
35862Do you blame me for what I have done?"
35862Do you blame me, sir?"
35862Do you think for all the money in Ireland I''d run the risk of seeing my lady tramp home on foot?"
35862Fin, who was dressed for the occasion as much like a boy as possible, got up, and bringing Cuhullin out,"Are you strong?"
35862For the comic relief of this volume I have therefore had to turn mainly to the Irish peasant of the Pale; and what richer source could I draw from?
35862Guleesh, my boy, are you here with us again?
35862Has n''t it kept me and mine for years?"
35862He called to speak to the master in the haggard and said he,"What are servants asked to do in this country after aten their supper?"
35862He came to the deer"What news to- day?"
35862He gave a cross look to the visitors, and says he to Jack,"What do you want here, my fine fellow?
35862He shouted,''Where art thou, ring?''
35862He sputtered it out, and cried,"Man o''the house, is n''t it a great shame for you to have any one in the room that would do such a nasty thing?"
35862Her husband forgot, and touched her rather roughly on the shoulder, saying,"Is this a time for laughter?"
35862Her husband tapped her on the shoulder, and asked her,"Why do you weep?"
35862Here I am, and what do you want with me?"
35862How are you getting on with your woman?
35862I thought to myself that I was near my foe and far from my friends, and I called to the woman,''What are you doing here?''
35862I went in, and I said to her,''What was the matter that you were putting the knife on the neck of the child?''
35862In comes the giant, and he said:"Hast thou cleaned the byre, king''s son?"
35862Is he at home?"
35862Just then we could be hearing the footsteps of the giant,''What shall I do?
35862Keep your toe in your pump, will you?
35862May I be so bold as to ask where yez are all going?"
35862May I make bold to ask how is your goose, King O''Toole?"
35862Maybe I wo n''t remember your kindness if ever I find you in hardship; and where in the world are you all going?"
35862Maybe you''re sorry for your bargain?"
35862My wings, are they not withered stumps?
35862Now, when they told Arthur how they had sped, Arthur said,"Which of these marvels will it be best for us to seek first?"
35862On a day of days, while he was fishing, there rose a sea- maiden at the side of his boat, and she asked him,"Are you getting much fish?"
35862Or has that devil made you really dumb, when he struck his nasty hand on your jaw?"
35862Out came the cobbler:"How much for your hides, my men?"
35862Out came the tanner:"How much for your hides, my good men?"
35862Said Gwrhyr,"Who is it that laments in this house of stone?"
35862Said Silver- tree,"Troutie, bonny little fellow, am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
35862Said Yspathaden Penkawr,"Is it thou that seekest my daughter?"
35862Said a man of them to him:"Are you coming with us to- night, Guleesh?"
35862Say, knowest thou aught of Mabon?"
35862Seeing her so vexed and so changed in the face, the old woman asked:"What''s the trouble that''s on you now?"
35862She asked the boy:"Did you tell the master what I told you to tell him?"
35862She cried:"Naois, son of Uisnech, will you leave me?"
35862She rose up before him, and said:"Did n''t I tell you not to leave a bone of my body without stepping on it?
35862So Conn of the Hundred Fights said to him,"Is it to thy mind what the woman says, my son?"
35862Suddenly she paused, and said aloud:"Where are the women?
35862Thackeray?)
35862That vagabond, bad luck to him----""You mean Donald O''Neary?"
35862The eldest sister came home alone, and the husband asked,"Where is your sister?"
35862The giant asked him--"If thy father had that rod what would he do with it?"
35862The giant awoke and called,"Are you asleep?"
35862The son asked his father one day,"Is any one troubling you?"
35862The very letters that have spread through all Europe except Russia, are to be traced to the script of these Irish monks; why not certain folk- tales?
35862The woman said:"Whose else should they be?"
35862The wren threshed( what did he thresh with?
35862Then he said,''Where art thou, ring?''
35862There was once a farmer who was seeking a servant, and the wren met him and said:"What are you seeking?"
35862Well, the long and the short of it was that Donald let the hide go, and, that very evening, who but he should walk up to Hudden''s door?
35862What dress would you like?"
35862What good have we now out of our journey to France?
35862What has happened to you, Gelban?
35862What kind of soothsaying do you want?"
35862What''s the matter?"
35862What''s the matter?"
35862When he said to me then,''Is the ring fitting thee?''
35862When she perceived that he was asleep, she set her mouth quietly to the hole that was in the lid, and she said to me''was I alive?''
35862When the giant came home, he said:"Hast thou thatched the byre, king''s son?"
35862When the sisters came home, the henwife asked:"Have you any news from the church?"
35862When the two sisters came home the henwife asked:"Have you any news to- day from the church?"
35862Where are you going?"
35862Where have you been so long?"
35862Where''s all your invention?
35862Which of the keys should I keep?"
35862Who is she, or how did you get her?"
35862Why did you play that trick on us?"
35862Why say so when you were at home every Sunday?"
35862Why should n''t I have them all to myself?"
35862Why what has a poor old man like you to play for?"
35862Will you begin, if you please, and put in the thatch again, just as if you were doing it for your mother''s cabin?"
35862Will you lend me your best pair of scales?"
35862Would n''t it be a fine thing for a farmer to be marrying a princess, all dressed in gold and jewels?"
35862Would you have me meddle with the bastes of any neighbour, who might put me in the Stone Jug for it?"
35862Would you not sooner stay with me than with them?"
35862You would n''t wish to keep the luck all to yourself?"
35862[ Illustration:]"''Why will you be silent?
35862[ Illustration:]"And what do you say to me,"says Saint Kavin,"for making her the like?"
35862an''who is it, avick?
35862and what would you be taking their feet off for?"
35862dost thou reproach Arthur?
35862or mayhap you met the police, ill luck to them?"
35862said Fin again;"are you able to squeeze water out of that white stone?"
35862said Tom, bursting out laughing;"sure you do n''t think me to be such a fool as to believe that?"
35862said he, suddenly, as he looked again at the young girl,"in the name of God, who have you here?
35862said he,''hast thou done this to me?
35862said he;"is this where the great Fin M''Coul lives?"
35862said the giant;"but were n''t you impudent to come to my land and trouble me in this way?
35862says Ould Nick;"is that the way?
35862then,"says the king,"who are you?"
35862to take a woman with him that never said as much to him as,''How do you do?''
35862what for?"
35862what made your sons go to spring on my sons till my big son was killed by your children?
35862what shall I do?''
35862where did you get it?"
35862where?"
35862who was calling him, and not a soul in sight?
41729Am I to hear human prattle around me, after all?
41729And now, shall I read to Your Majesty the story of which we spoke?
41729And now, what shall I pay you for this wonderful toy?
41729And what is to fill this marvelous pie?
41729Are these also Chronicles of Kisington?
41729Are you a man of charity, or will you turn away a poor old soul who has had nothing to eat for many hours?
41729But at least you will spare the east of Kisington, where the Wonder- Garden lay, and not fire gums or arrows in that direction?
41729But have you no relatives-- no one of noble kin in some palace, some castle?
41729But how shall I make a pie without viands of any sort?
41729But shall I be allowed in the procession, Mother?
41729But suppose he can not wait for to- morrow afternoon? 41729 But what of the Dragon?"
41729By what name shall you know them?
41729Can we not cause him to change his mind? 41729 Can you bring back the sun, Maiden?"
41729Dear Mermaid,said Cedric eagerly,"can you find out the cruel person who has destroyed Gerda''s garden?
41729Do you think one piece of pie hot is worth five pies cold, Your Majesty?
41729Do you wonder we have no time for war, Your Majesty?
41729Does the Wonder- Garden, then, still exist?
41729Dolls?
41729Have you a little girl?
41729Have you no one to take care of you?
41729Have you not a tree of red apples? 41729 How came you to be thus hurt, Your Majesty?"
41729How can I make a pie? 41729 How can a man live long enough to read them all, if he does nothing else all his days?"
41729How can that be, Brother?
41729How can those evil brothers of mine care so much to vex and trouble them?
41729How do you expect me to know all the legends of your precious country? 41729 How shall you know your people among the New Ones?"
41729How will you know where to find them?
41729I know that motto well; and what of a lion passant?
41729I suppose it is worth many golden crowns?
41729I wonder if she will ever dare to claim that beautiful shawl which she left behind her?
41729Indeed, that is one of the least important.--Did you ever hear of the Wonder- Garden, Your Majesty?
41729Is it a war message?
41729Is it the thought of your dainty little bride?
41729Is that to hold your pie, Brother?
41729Is this true?
41729It is my turn now to tell a story, is it? 41729 It would not be quite knightly, would it?
41729May we not go hunting in the Ancient Wood, of which I have heard?
41729More of them?
41729Now, what means Your Majesty by that?
41729Oh, if you have a dear little girl of your own, how can you make war on a city where other dear little girls live?
41729Oh, what is it? 41729 Oh, where is he going?"
41729Please tell me all about it, Your Majesty?
41729Pray, what do you mean by that?
41729Rubbish!--Can one purchase a lion- doll in your city?
41729Shall we go into this alcove where we shall be quite undisturbed and undisturbing?
41729So you intend to slay the Dragon of Hushby?
41729Suppose he came to our front door and asked my mother for them, like a gentleman? 41729 Suppose the man was an enemy, and too proud to ask a favor?
41729Tell me, what has happened, Gerda?
41729Tender capon? 41729 The Garden?"
41729The name? 41729 The name?"
41729Then why should you want to fight us?
41729Then you will come back with me?
41729Then, Your Majesty has not heard the tale of the Lion Passant?
41729Well, boy, have you brought the book?
41729Well, what is it now?
41729Well, who are you, and what do you want with me?
41729Well, why not?
41729What about this''Old One,''and this''Great Fear''?
41729What are they?
41729What are you looking for?
41729What can this be?
41729What can this mean?
41729What comes here?
41729What do you want of the King?
41729What does this mean? 41729 What does this mean?"
41729What have you there?
41729What is a mere library, forsooth, to have rules which I may not break?
41729What is it?
41729What is that?
41729What is the matter, Gerda?
41729What is this strange insect?
41729What is this?
41729What is your name?
41729What is your second demand, Harold?
41729What like is she, Harold?
41729What makes your face so pale, brave Arthur?
41729What message from the besieged?
41729What noble house?
41729What of the hunting in this Ancient Wood?
41729What part of the city is that?
41729When did you learn to read rather well?
41729Where are you going?
41729Where do you live, boy?
41729Where do you live?
41729Who could it be? 41729 Who is injuring my child?"
41729Who will go with the volume into the enemy''s camp?
41729Who wishes to see me?
41729Why did you not bring the other book with you?
41729Why do you seek to kill me?
41729Why do you stop, boy?
41729Why have you no garden, girl? 41729 Why may he not live where he will and yet cook the pies for us?"
41729Why may it not be, Your Majesty?
41729Why, and why, and why?
41729Will Your Majesty promise me one other thing, beside the truce, till my return?
41729With books in the city and woodcraft in the wild, who would be a soldier? 41729 Would you make out our King to be a cannibal?"
41729You are willing, my dear?
41729You have rules for your army, do you not?
41729You make dolls?
41729You owe much to the Elixir?
41729Your Majesty,said Arthur politely,"may I ask to see your daughter?
41729Your Majesty,said Arthur,"do you not remember how David was a little fellow, when with a stone he slew the giant Goliath?
41729Your Majesty,said Harold promptly,"will you also shake hands with Richard and Robert?
41729Your other name?
41729And can you restore the garden itself before to- morrow?
41729And every one said,"Was there ever seen a handsomer, finer couple?"
41729And how am I to sleep, with another restless creature living close by forever and ever?"
41729And how she crept into your unbolted cottage, do you?
41729And how she found the goodly row of pies sitting on the pantry shelf?
41729And how she went along your unguarded streets, do you?
41729And they said:"Now will you stay where we leave you, bad Little Bear?"
41729And who, think you, went with King Victor on that visit?
41729And why should we not make this arrangement permanent?
41729And yet, what could his mother be doing there at that time of night?
41729Besides, is there not the family tradition?
41729But for yourself, Harold?
41729But how can I amend this insult to your dignity?
41729But how did she find her way into our guarded city?
41729But surely, I need tell it to no others than yourself?"
41729But tell me, now; in what part of Kisington is the place where this Gerda had her Wonder- Garden?
41729But we do not often read it-- why should we?
41729But what reward shall you ask if you are successful?"
41729But what was this?
41729But what was this?
41729But when he moved away from her side the old bear wakened suddenly and called after him,--"Where are you going, friend Hans?
41729But where is my daughter, and why does she delay?"
41729But where was the strange old woman all this time?
41729Can we not at least gain time until our King Victor and his allies shall come to our aid?"
41729Can we not interest him in our books, enthrall him in the Chronicles of Kisington, so that he will cease to make war?
41729Come, boy; will you read me that tale to- morrow?"
41729Could this really be?
41729Do they think this is a child''s party?
41729Do you know what I did?
41729Do you not dream to win the prize which I offer?"
41729Do you not know better than to awaken a sleeping lion?"
41729Do you not see how beautiful he is, Mother, Father?"
41729Does that thought please you, girl?
41729Does this concern war?"
41729For, to tell you the truth-- but why tell the truth?
41729Girl, do you jest at the Lord Mayor?"
41729Grasshoppers or mice?"
41729Harold, will you read me this story, as you have read so many ere now?
41729Have you forgotten the stranger maiden who lives beside the sea, and how you bade her make a garden as the other maids were doing?
41729Have you no pride?
41729His aim was good,--for was he not Hans the Hunter?
41729How can pie be introduced into my grand pageant?
41729How did Your Majesty manage to do it?"
41729How shall we begin, Sir Librarian?"
41729How shall we pay you to go away and leave us in peace?"
41729How then was he to magic her and make her small, as he had hoped to do?
41729How was he to tame this terrible big girl and make her a nice little wife?
41729How, then, shall I make a garden to please Your Lordship?"
41729I knew one must lead to the pantry,--but which?
41729In the mean time what could be done to save Kisington?
41729Is it far from here?"
41729Is it not a pretty thought?"
41729Is it not fortunate, Your Majesty, that the library is still standing to entertain you?
41729Is it not so, my son?"
41729Is this part of the story?"
41729Is this to be the first and the last?
41729It was that tale which you punctuated by your noisy arrival in Kisington, do you remember?
41729May the school children have a vacation of a week, Sire?"
41729Must he marry her, after all?
41729Must he, then, marry the giant girl and be a slave to her cruel temper all his life?
41729Now what say you?
41729Now, if you would but go with me as a Living Testimonial?"
41729Of course you can guess what happened next?
41729Of what is it made, Rafe?
41729Or is it some Fairy who has made the house so neat and ready for me?
41729Peacocks?
41729Rabbits?
41729Say, Cousin Rex, shall it be?"
41729Shall we not be friends, Cousin?
41729She smiled at the two sisters, and turning to the young man said:--"Husband, do you know me?
41729Suppose Harold should invite Red Rex, under a flag of truce, to visit and inspect our Library?"
41729Suppose the man who stole those pies was starving and needed them for his comfort?"
41729Surely, you do not fight on Sundays, Your Majesty?"
41729Tell me, have you seen the sun?"
41729Then she said:--"Son, why do you not bake a pie for the King?"
41729There was a curious expression on the Prince''s face; it seemed drawn and twisted-- was he about to sneeze?
41729This wriggling little lizard, could he really be their famous Dragon?
41729Venison?
41729Was it possible that this vagrant was an offshoot of the noble family which he had been seeking?
41729Was that lion a red lion, Harold?"
41729Was that not wonderful enough?
41729Were not Richard and Robert at that moment clapping Harold on the shoulder and declaring that he was indeed a"Book- Wizard"?
41729What are you doing here, Monster?
41729What are you doing with my little cub that I have never seen?"
41729What could they do?
41729What did it mean?
41729What had become of the glass?
41729What has Kisington to do with pie?"
41729What have you done to our dear Little Bear?"
41729What if I should look with this glass upon the Dragon of Hushby?
41729What is suitable for a King?
41729What is to become of my solitude, of my hermitage?
41729What is your grief, Lord Mayor''s son?"
41729What may it be, my Lord?"
41729What means a''wonder- garden,''boy?"
41729What shall I do to help you?"
41729What shall it be?
41729What shall it be?"
41729What spiteful neighbor could have spied them through the pantry window and planned this midnight raid at our expense?"
41729What then?
41729What was to be done?
41729What will you do, forsooth, you little fellow, with your butterfly- net?"
41729When have I wasted hours like this, you wheedling boy?"
41729When shall we ever see such pies again?"
41729Where are you going?"
41729Where did the baby come from?
41729Where was the green grass?
41729Where were the lawns and hedges and beds of flowers?
41729Who has done this?"
41729Who was this stranger who dared to force a way into their cottage and eat up the hard- earned victuals which his mother had painfully prepared?
41729Why must I marry an ugly Little Bear?
41729Why must we be enemies?
41729Why not become the supporter of my inn?"
41729Why not cook a pie to tempt a hungry man?"
41729Will Your Majesty come with me now and visit the Town of Kisington under the flag of truce?"
41729Will Your Majesty permit that I begin?"
41729Will you accept my gift for your little daughter, Cousin?"
41729Will you come with me?"
41729Will you come?"
41729Will you go back with me, to my little daughter?
41729Will you have a bit of bread?"
41729Will you hesitate now?"
41729Will you risk your life for all these, Harold?"
41729Will you share it with me?"
41729Will you taste it, Sire?"
41729Will you work for me for a day or two?
41729Would he not shrink as the spider and the rat and the bird have done?
41729You want to hear how the old woman got into your careless town, do you?
41729You will not tell your City Fathers, Harold?
41729he cried,"what is going on?
41729they demanded,"or is this some wicked Gnome- trick which has bewitched our child?"
31795''"A rhyme to King Ormund, eh?"
31795''A conspiracy?''
31795''After all, what can it matter?''
31795''And Tom the Cat too?''
31795''And are we never coming back here any more?''
31795''And can you speak also?''
31795''And do I look like anyone besides her?''
31795''And do you mean to say she lives in the water?
31795''And how are we ever to get through all this crowd?''
31795''And if you think it is, why do you search for truth?''
31795''And now,''observed Ormund, rubbing his hands and glancing at Silvia,''since the coronation is over, what do you say to our having the wedding?''
31795''And pray what made you suppose that you would find the Diamond Waterdrop here?
31795''And shall we see you too?''
31795''And so you want to go to London?''
31795''And the robber?''
31795''And what are you waiting for, may I ask?''
31795''And what did you say to that?''
31795''And what do you wish me to do for you?''
31795''And what shall we see there?''
31795''And where are the Golden Ivy- seed and the Diamond Waterdrop to be found?''
31795''And who is he?''
31795''And who is his successor?''
31795''And who was it gave it to you, in the first place, I should like to know?''
31795''And, of course, if I prove that Theeda does not exist, you are to become my servant for the rest of your life?''
31795''Anyone else?''
31795''Are there goblins here?''
31795''Are they on our side?''
31795''Are we going to ride on a cloud, then?''
31795''Are you as handsome as you once were?''
31795''Are you one of the conspirators?''
31795''Are you?''
31795''Be guilty of treason?''
31795''Besides, how should he ever know anything about it?
31795''Besides, what harm if the fire does go out?
31795''But are you quite sure, dear Raymond, that you will be content to live here always?''
31795''But are you really so willing to part with your crown?
31795''But can a dream that I''ve been dreaming all my life fail to come true?
31795''But can you tell me how I got here?''
31795''But can you understand all I say to you?''
31795''But do n''t you care at all for Assimund?''
31795''But do n''t you think it is colder than it was yesterday?''
31795''But how are we to get up to the Air Spirits and down to the Gnomes?''
31795''But how did you get here?''
31795''But how shall we make the wind blow from the south every day in the week?''
31795''But if the sun feels warm, is not that as good as if it were really warm?''
31795''But if you think my book is not worth having, why do you want it?''
31795''But suppose he wo n''t be deposed?''
31795''But then could I not light a little lamp of my own, to see my way about?''
31795''But what can we do?''
31795''But what if it should go out while we are away?''
31795''But where is Tom the Cat?''
31795''But which way am I to go, and what am I to do?''
31795''But whom do the conspirators mean to put on the throne in your stead?
31795''But why should I go to London at all?''
31795''But why,''she asked at last,''should there be any hedge at all?''
31795''But wo n''t your Lordship come in?
31795''But you do n''t think that changes will come over us, or that we shall be separated, Raymond?''
31795''Can we ever get him back?''
31795''Can you tell me which star the Queen sits in?''
31795''Certainly; where else could it be?''
31795''Could n''t you give me a ride there?''
31795''Could not I put it out?''
31795''Did you come alone?''
31795''Do you mean me?''
31795''Do you mean this pretty little thing, set in precious stones?
31795''Do you mean to ask me to be your wife, Raymond?''
31795''Do you think so?
31795''Do you want anything?''
31795''Does she know all this?''
31795''Does this passage belong to them?''
31795''Draw lots from the donkey?''
31795''Had n''t we better move a little faster?''
31795''Has anything been done to prepare the people for this change?''
31795''Have a bone?''
31795''Have you the password?''
31795''He the son of King Ormund?''
31795''How are you going to depose him?''
31795''How can we make the wind blow one way or the other?''
31795''How did you get up here?
31795''How did you know me?''
31795''How do you do?
31795''How do you know there is a country over there?
31795''How do you like it?''
31795''How far have we still to go?''
31795''How much are you a pound, fish?''
31795''How much does this crown weigh?
31795''How shall we ever get it back again?''
31795''How should I know?''
31795''I hope you are thirsty?''
31795''I wonder what it''s made of?''
31795''I wonder what the grand transformation scene will be like?''
31795''I wonder why we must n''t touch it?''
31795''I-- what did you say?
31795''I?''
31795''If it had not been for that donkey where should we be now?''
31795''If you are cold, will not the sun warm you?''
31795''If you can do it, then why do n''t you?''
31795''If you please, sir,''he cried out,''who are you?''
31795''In what way did you commit it?''
31795''Is that all?''
31795''Is the creature here again?''
31795''Is there an Archbishop present?
31795''Is this for me?''
31795''Is this the place where kings are crowned?''
31795''It must be the same Seven Brethren of which the dwarf spoke,''thought Raymond; and he said aloud,''They meet to- night at five o''clock, I think?''
31795''It seems rather dark; do n''t you think so?''
31795''It will not be best, I suppose, to enter upon my duties at once?''
31795''It would be good fun to explore them, would n''t it?''
31795''Might your lover not have given it up for something that seemed to him more precious?''
31795''My Assimund, you mean?
31795''My left foot is a trifle wet; but what of that?
31795''Not care about it, Rosamund?''
31795''Now, my dear,''said Rumpty- Dudget to Princess Hilda,''will you step through first?
31795''Of what crime are you accused?''
31795''Oh, is it you?''
31795''Oh, that is the trouble, is it?''
31795''Oh, what shall we do?''
31795''Oh, where?''
31795''On which side of us is the alabaster wall?
31795''Please will you give me your yellow cap?''
31795''Pray, are you as fortunate in love as you seem to be in everything else?''
31795''Rosamund, I ask you this: if I become king will you sit beside me on the throne, and rule over Great Britain, France, and Ireland?''
31795''Shall we never be able to go with you, then?''
31795''Shall we take just one peep?''
31795''Silvia-- not Rosamund?''
31795''Silvia?
31795''So it''s to be a pantomime, is it?''
31795''So we have,''replied Callia;''and we will always stay together, wo n''t we?''
31795''Such as what?''
31795''Surely you could n''t have been him?''
31795''That fellow who owns the donkey the Prince of Sprats?''
31795''The discovery of the truth, Sire; and where would you and all of us be then?''
31795''The number, Yellow- cap?''
31795''The number?''
31795''The time?''
31795''Theeda?
31795''Then it all depends on me?''
31795''They have deserted me, then?''
31795''They jumped through the fiery eye----''''Through what, your Lordship?''
31795''To- morrow, then?''
31795''Too much so?''
31795''Well, Calladon, what do you think of yourself?''
31795''Well, for instance, how would you like to be a queen?''
31795''What am I to do then?''
31795''What are you crying for, my poor dear little boy?''
31795''What are you dreaming about?''
31795''What are you waiting for?
31795''What did he say would happen to us if we did do it?''
31795''What did you do to him?''
31795''What discovery?''
31795''What do you call great?''
31795''What do you say, boys?''
31795''What do you want of him?''
31795''What do you want of the Queen?''
31795''What does it all mean?''
31795''What good will that do?''
31795''What has become of the black spot on your forehead, Hilda?''
31795''What has become of them?''
31795''What have you done, Callia?''
31795''What have you to say for yourself, sirrah?''
31795''What if I can?''
31795''What is it that I must do?''
31795''What is that round your neck, Silvia?''
31795''What is that?
31795''What is the matter, Theeda?''
31795''What is the matter?''
31795''What is the matter?''
31795''What is this?''
31795''What is this?''
31795''What is your book?''
31795''What is your name?''
31795''What is your name?''
31795''What language does she talk?''
31795''What made you suppose, I should like to know, that there was any Golden Ivy- seed to be got here?
31795''What makes that noise?''
31795''What makes your hands so big?''
31795''What may that be?''
31795''What of that?
31795''What on earth are you made of?''
31795''What other harm do you want to do me?''
31795''What placards?''
31795''What sort of an audience should we get,''replied Gyp,''if the date of the performance was not advertised beforehand?
31795''What, in the name of wonder, is the meaning of it all?''
31795''Where are the other fellows?''
31795''Where are we going?''
31795''Where did the lamp come from?''
31795''Where did you come from?''
31795''Where else should they be?''
31795''Where has he gone to?''
31795''Where have I seen you before?''
31795''Where is she?''
31795''Where is the Chancellor of the Jingle?''
31795''Who are you, fellow?''
31795''Who are you?''
31795''Who are you?''
31795''Who but the usurper?''
31795''Who comes?''
31795''Who comes?''
31795''Who could have been so unkind as to tell you that?''
31795''Who else could you be?''
31795''Who is it?''
31795''Who is to find the rhyme to"King Ormund?"''
31795''Who would you like him to be?''
31795''Whom but Silvia, most puissant prince?''
31795''Whose wedding?''
31795''Why are you all dressed in white?''
31795''Why are you coming with us, Silvia?''
31795''Why do I wear spectacles?''
31795''Why do n''t you ask yourself where it is?''
31795''Why does he not come forward and give his judgment as umpire?
31795''Why is there no light here?''
31795''Why must I take my doublet off?''
31795''Why not?''
31795''Why not?''
31795''Why not?''
31795''Why should n''t we do it?''
31795''Why should you believe the mirror more than me?''
31795''Why?''
31795''Will you show me the place where the King ploughs?''
31795''Will your Lordship take my hand?''
31795''Would you commit suicide?''
31795''Would you exchange your lover at the same time?''
31795''Would you mind winking your left eye?''
31795''You are going to the Seven Brethren?''
31795''You do n''t know him?''
31795''You have heard of the cap of invisibility?''
31795''You''re not tired?''
31795After it was over he continued--''And now tell me, where on earth did you vanish to?
31795Am I the same as I was before?''
31795And I wonder why he wears spectacles?''
31795And after all, what could be more delightful than simply to be together?
31795And had he given up the idea of going back to Honeymead?
31795And what business have you to exist if you never had a father and mother?''
31795And where had Yellow- cap passed the night?
31795And why should not you be as much a queen in London as you are here?
31795And you will always be our mamma, and be with us now, wo n''t you?''
31795And, finally, why should Oscar trouble himself about how anything happened, as long as it did happen, and was agreeable?
31795Are not you the gallant prince whom I had the pleasure of meeting yesterday, and who vanished so strangely just when we were about to exchange hats?''
31795Are you Silvia?''
31795Are you hungry, pray, or thirsty?
31795Are you ready to start?
31795Are you ready?''
31795As you yourself say, what need is there for me to be a usurper, if I can be a successor?''
31795At last Hilda said,''Why, Hector, what has become of the black spot that used to be on your chin?
31795At last Hilda said:''I wonder where it came from?''
31795Before going to bed, Calladon said--''By the way, Callia, have you got a mirror round your neck?''
31795But are you quite certain that I look as well and handsome as when you first saw me?
31795But how shall we light it?''
31795But how?
31795But if so, what had so suddenly undeceived him?
31795But surely there are plenty more in the forest where those came from?''
31795But were you not a great deal taller then than now?''
31795But what is Honeymead compared with London?
31795But what is it that I ought not to do, dear Master?''
31795But who was the blind and dumb man with the onion?''
31795But why should I tell you about it, when you are going to see it all for yourselves this very day?
31795By- the- by, I shall be passing through Honeymead again this evening; shall I drop in at the Brindled Cow and tell Rosamund that you are all right?''
31795Calladon, is that you?
31795Can you remember that?''
31795Can you tell me where it is?''
31795Cap and knee-- who is he?"
31795Cap off-- who is he?
31795Cap off-- who is he?
31795Cap off-- who is he?
31795Did he care so much for this Kanker, with his flat face and his great red hands, as to betray the secret which his mother had confided to him?
31795Did he love her?
31795Did she love him?
31795Did you ever hear anything like this before?''
31795Did you ever touch it?''
31795Do n''t you think it would be a good thing if we were to smear ourselves all over with it, and then hang some of those lovely weeds round our necks?''
31795Do you agree?''
31795Do you believe now?''
31795Do you mean they are drowned?''
31795Do you understand?''
31795Does it fit you comfortably?''
31795For what can be better than what we like best?''
31795Had Raymond kissed one of the invisible goblins instead of Silvia?
31795Had he ever seen it before?
31795Had he fallen off and been drowned?
31795Had the King been making game of him all along?
31795Have another tankard of ale, Brother Yellow- cap?''
31795Have n''t you a lighter one?''
31795Have you ever touched her?''
31795Have you understood me?''
31795He could not come closer to them; and if they could not come closer to him, must not something be wrong?
31795He will come through the hole, and see the pretty things, wo n''t he?''
31795How dare you come into my kingdom walking upright?''
31795How many years has she waited for you?
31795I can put in your hands a power before which the whole world bows: will you take it or not?
31795I hope you''re thirsty?''
31795I recognise six of the portraits, but where is the seventh?
31795I wonder whether he believes in the sun and the stars?
31795I wonder whom they belong to?''
31795Is n''t it, your Worship?''
31795It is-- it isn''t-- can it be-- the cap?''
31795It was true that he had a talisman, but how was that to help him?
31795May I ask whether you are perfect in your part?''
31795Might not that half of the spade guinea give the dwarf some power over her?
31795Moreover, was not the shell beautiful enough as it was?
31795No-- and yet-- had he?
31795Now, Mr. Chancellor, what is your decision?''
31795Or was Silvia herself a goblin?
31795Perhaps you have seen him?''
31795Perhaps you''d like to take a chair and sit down?
31795Pray, how big is she?''
31795Shall I give it to you, dearest Calladon?''
31795Shall I go back to the Brindled Cow and Rosamund?
31795Shall we try it?''
31795She opened a pair of lovely blue eyes, and yawned, and said--''Where am I?
31795She used to tell them that she was well able to take care of herself, so what good would a husband be to her?
31795Should he go back there even now?
31795Silvia arranged the ribbon at her throat, looked coquettishly at King Yellow- cap, and murmured in his ear--''What says your Majesty?
31795Stop-- where is the Headsman?''
31795Such a word between you and me?
31795Suppose we make our home here?''
31795Suppose you try it on?''
31795That closet had seemed black enough, but what was it compared with this?
31795The King had noticed this transaction, and immediately asked--''What have you got there?''
31795Then poor Hilda felt as if her heart would break, and she sobbed out:''Oh, what shall I do to save my poor little brother?''
31795Then why do n''t you make it happen?''
31795Then you are one of the conspirators?''
31795There, does that feel better?''
31795They were all cap and knee to me one moment, and the next they were all shouting out"Who is he?
31795Was it really anything?
31795Was not Rosamund more precious than a kingdom, or than all the money in the Bank of England?
31795Well, will you let me have your book?''
31795Were n''t you thinking of me at the very moment you kissed her?
31795Were not you a great deal shorter?''
31795What books do you read?''
31795What did it all mean?
31795What did it mean?
31795What did this sudden change mean?
31795What do you keep that jar of sea- water for?''
31795What do you want of wealth?
31795What had he left to wish?
31795What if he were to assert that he was the true Raymond, showing the token in proof thereof?
31795What if some harm came to her in his absence?
31795What is the reason of that?''
31795What people are those in the cart?''
31795What shall it be?
31795What was it then?
31795What was that echo of a metallic chuckle in the air?
31795What wonder, then, if Raymond eyed its distant splendours with some regret, remembering that they were lost to him for ever?
31795When did you see her last yourself?''
31795Where are your father and mother?''
31795Where did they go to?''
31795Where is he, I say?
31795Where was the dwarf?
31795Who are you?''
31795Who else but you?''
31795Who has more right here than we?''
31795Who were the children, and how came they there?
31795Whom should I marry?''
31795Why did all salute him so profoundly, bowing to their saddles in silent homage?
31795Why do you want people to look up to you and obey you, I should like to know?
31795Why does n''t she put on airs?
31795Why else did my mother wash the King''s stocking; or the Appanage of Royalty promise me the cap?''
31795Why is it?
31795Why was every eye bent upon Raymond with an expression of respect and subservience?
31795Why was the laugh with which the other pages had begun to greet their companion''s mishap checked so suddenly?
31795Will you take me back?''
31795Would you let a few kisses and keepsakes stand in the way of your ambition?
31795Yellow- cap was going to ask,''Where?''
31795You''ve felt the same yourself?''
31795Your son?''
31795and if it were, why could he not understand it?
31795cried Oscar;''dearest Theeda, what has happened?''
31795did you?''
31795exclaimed Calladon cheerfully,''for will not my golden sash press against my heart whenever I go wrong, and remind me to turn back?''
31795have you so little confidence in your friends?
31795it is only a play, then?''
31795my good Raymond, is not unbounded wealth worth a headache?
31795what is Theeda?''
31795what monarch has not?
31795what shall I do to save my little brother?''
31795what should a cat know about a thing like this?''
31795what''s the matter?
5244And how cometh it,asked I,"that the Commander of the Faithful trusteth her to go out?"
5244And thou,asked she,"hast thou never been in love?"
5244And what is the cause of this?
5244And what is thy want?
5244And what,asked El Abbas,"hath Akil done with King Zuheir?"
5244And where is King El Aziz?
5244Forget him,quoth my censurers,"forget him; what is he?"
5244How call''st thou this thy dress?
5244How so?
5244How, then, shall we do with him?
5244I do not want this,answered she, and he rejoined,"What then is it that is called wood, other than this?"
5244O Saad,asked the king,"whence cometh this man?"
5244O elder,added she,"if Muslims and Jews and Nazarenes drink wine, who are we[ that we should abstain from it]?"
5244O nurse,rejoined the princess,"who is this that presumeth upon me with this letter?
5244Quoth she,Why wilt thou forbid me to drink thereof in thy house?"
5244Since when hath this befallen her?
5244What is the taste of love?
5244What is to be done?
5244What would the king with me?
5244Whence hast thou this servant?
5244Why, then, O my lord,asked the nurse,"didst thou conceal the secret of thy rank and lineage and passedst thyself off for a wayfarer?
5244[ FN#10] Then he accosted the young Damascene and saluting him, said to him,Why do I see my lord alone and forlorn?
5244whatever may betideor"will I, nill I"?
5244''And how earnest thou hither?''
5244''O my lord,''answered I,''my name is Sindbad the Sailor;''and he said,''And what countryman art thou?''
5244?"
5244All charms, indeed, thou dost comprise; so who shall vie with thee And who shall blame me if for love of such a fair I''m sped?
5244And I said,''By Allah, O youth, whence cometh thou?''
5244And Zuheir said,"Whence comest thou and whither wilt thou?"
5244And he said,"Art thou in my presence and bespeakest me with the like of these words?
5244And he said,"Didst thou not bid me bring thee wood?"
5244And he said,"With whom?"
5244And how Of all things in the world should I forget the love of thee?
5244And the slave- dealer said to him,"What is her name?"
5244And who can tell if ever house shall us together bring In union of life serene and undisturbed content?
5244Canst thou carry her another letter, and with God the Most High be thy requital?"
5244Doth it not suffice thee that thou hast orphaned his children[FN#94] and slain his men?
5244Doth it not suffice thee that thou hast quelled El Akil''s repute, but thou art minded to quell that of those who sojourn round about him?
5244Fawn of the palace, knowst thou not that I, to look on thee, The world have traversed, far and wide, o''er many a hill and plain?
5244Hast thou any want unto which thou availest not, so I may endeavour for thee therein and lavish my treasures in quest thereof?"
5244Hath there betided thee a pain from God the Most High or hath aught of vexation befallen thee?
5244His neighbour the Jew met him and said to him,"How comes it that I see thee confounded?"
5244How deemest thou, O King, of fetching El Abbas and drawing up the contract of marriage between Mariyeh and him?"
5244How long shall I anights distracted be for love Of thee?
5244How long shall I thus question my heart that''s drowned in woe?
5244How long shall I, in weariness, for this estrangement pine, What while the spies of severance[FN#106] do watch me all the night?
5244How long th''assaults of grief and woes abide?
5244How long will ye admonished be, without avail or heed?
5244How long, O Fate, wilt thou oppress and baffle me?
5244Is it of the sons of Adam or of the Jinn?"
5244Is there a man of you will come, that I may heal his paint With blows right profitful for him who''s sick for lust of fight?
5244Knowest thou not that he is of the lieutenants of Kundeh ben[ Hisham of the Benou] Sheiban, a man renowned for prowess?
5244Now Er Reshid was leaning back; but, when he heard this, he sat up and said to her,"By my life,[ is this thou sayest] true?"
5244O blamer of me for the love of him who denieth his grace, Which be the delightsome of things, but those which the people deny?
5244O thou my inclining to love him that blamest, Shall lovers be blamed for the errors of Fate?
5244One day my master said to me,''Knowest thou not some art or handicraft?''
5244Quoth El Aziz,"And knowest thou who she is?"
5244Quoth I,"Where is her abode?"
5244Quoth I,''What[ manner of men] are ye and what country is this?''
5244Quoth he,"O my lady, what is this love?"
5244Quoth he,"Saidst thou not to me,''I would fain drink''?"
5244Quoth he,"Thou knowest the stranger youth, who gave us the rubies?"
5244Quoth he,"What is to be done with her?"
5244Quoth he,"Where is this thing found and of whom shall I get it for thee?"
5244Quoth he,"Who gave the king news of me?"
5244Quoth he,''Knowest thou how to shoot with a bow and arrows?''
5244Quoth his friend to him,"Why do I see thee troubled?"
5244Quoth one of the merchants,"I,"and the dealer said to her,"O Sitt el Milah, shall I sell thee to this merchant?"
5244Quoth she,"And what shall letters profit thee, seeing she answereth on this wise?"
5244Quoth she,"So deem I. Hath not our Lord promised us wine in Paradise?"
5244Quoth she,"What is that?"
5244Quoth she,"Whence gottest thou them?"
5244Quoth she,''Is there none with thee?''
5244Quoth the eunuch,"Is there amongst you a brother of his or a son?"
5244Quoth the king to him,"Whence comest thou, O youth?"
5244Quoth the king,"Where is he?"
5244Quoth the king,"Whom wilt thou take with thee of attendants and[ what] of good?"
5244Quoth the prefect,"How shall we do?"
5244Quoth the princess,"And what is it?"
5244Sherik ben Amrou, what device avails the hand of death to stay?
5244So I kissed his hand and said,''O my lord, what is the lord''s occasion with the slave?''
5244So I said in myself,''Who will bury me in this place?''
5244So I said to him,''Knowest thou the art of painting?''
5244So I told him what had befallen me and he marvelled exceedingly and rejoiced, saying,''Knowst thou where this hill is?''
5244So he arose and brought her a gugglet of water; but she said to him,"Who bade thee fetch that?"
5244So he cried out, saying,"Is there a comer- forth[ to battle?]"
5244So he said to him,"O my lord, I conjure thee by God the Great, wilt thou not tell me whither thou intendest?"
5244So he smelt it and she said to him,"How deemest thou?"
5244So her lord went in to her and said to her,"O Sitt el Milah, how findest thou thyself?"
5244So she saluted her and said to her,"Whence hadst thou this dress, than which there is no goodlier?"
5244Tell me, are grapes and honey lawful or unlawful?"
5244The Khalif laughed at him and said to him,"O elder, thou hast done no offence; so[ why] fearest thou?"
5244The eunuchs cried out to us, whereupon we came with the boat, and they said to the boatman,"Who is this?"
5244The love of Mariyeh fled forth of his heart and he said to the nurse,"How much hadst thou of Mariyeh every month?"
5244The prefect bade carry him to his lodging; but one of those in attendance upon him, by name El Muradi, said to him,"What wilt thou do?
5244The slave- dealer arose, shaking the dust from his clothes and head, and said,"Who biddeth more?
5244Then he came to the damsel and said to her,"O Sitt el Milah, shall I sell thee to yonder young Damascene for sixteen hundred dinars?"
5244Then he repeated his speech and said,"Why do I not hear your Amir return me an answer?"
5244Then he went into the harem and gave the rubies to his wife Afifeh, who said to him,"What is the worth of these with thee and with[ other] the kings?"
5244Then said El Fezl to the gaoler,"Is there any prisoner left in the prison?"
5244Then said he to me,''O Sindbad, is this king, indeed, such as he avoucheth in this letter?''
5244Then said one of them to other,"Verily, the king is slain; so with whom do we wage war?
5244Then said she,"Where is the goal of thine intent, so we may know thy news and solace ourselves with thy report?"
5244Then said the king,"Hast thou a need we may accomplish unto thee?
5244Then said the prince,"Wilt thou play another game?"
5244Then she broke out again into song and chanted the following verses:"Forget him,"quoth my censurers,"forget him; what is he?"
5244Then she slept awhile and presently awaking, said,"O elder, hast thou what we may eat?"
5244Then they took him and carried him to[ their king] Zuheir ben Shebib; and when he came before him, he said to him,"Of which of the Arabs art thou?"
5244Therewithal Noureddin''s life was troubled; so he arose and donned his clothes, and his host said,"Whither away this night, O my lord?"
5244Therewithal the king''s chamberlains and officers accosted them and said to them,"What is behind you and what hath befallen you?"
5244They gave not over going till they came up to me, when the woman stopped and said to me,''Hast thou a draught of water?''
5244This pleased her and she said to him,"Whence hadst thou this?"
5244To lovers,"What see ye?"
5244To whom save thee shall I complain, of whom relief implore, Whose image came to visit me, what while in dreams I lay?
5244To whom shall I complain of what is in my soul, Now thou art gone and I my pillow must forswear?
5244What care I If thou have looked on me a look that caused thee languishment?
5244What hath befallen thee?"
5244What is the cause of this?"
5244What is there in the tents?
5244What leach such madness can assain or what medicament?
5244What shall be our excuse with the king?
5244What shall be our excuse with thee, and thou of the sons of the kings?"
5244When Er Reshid heard this, he was sore chagrined and waxed exceeding wroth and said,"Shall this happen in a city wherein I am?"
5244When he named Akil, those who were present were agitated; but Zuheir signed to them with his eyes and said to him,"What is thine errand with Akil?"
5244When he saw this, he was amazed and said to them,"What is to do?"
5244When she awoke, she said to the old man,"O elder, hast thou aught of food?"
5244When she saw the young man, she said to him,"Art thou here?"
5244When such a fever fills the heart, what leach can make it whole?
5244When the merchants saw him, they accosted him and said,"O youth, wilt thou not open thy shop?"
5244When the nurse heard his words, she said to him,"O my lord, and which of the kings is thy father?"
5244When the prince saw her in this plight, he was as a sleeper awakened and said to her,"What hath befallen thee?
5244Whenas he runs, his feet still show like wings,[FN#140] and for the wind When was a rider found, except King Solomon it were?
5244Who art thou of the folk?"
5244Who art thou, wretch, that thou shouldst hope to win me?
5244Who is desirous[ of buying?]"
5244Why art thou purposed to depart and leave me to despair?
5244Why to estrangement and despite inclin''st thou with the spy?
5244Wilt thou go with us in any event?
5244Wilt thou go with us?"
5244Wilt thou sell me yonder slave- girl for sixteen hundred dinars?"
5244With thy rhymes What wouldst of me?
5244gilded?
5244he saith, and to hearts of stone,"What love ye,"quoth he,"[ if to love me ye disdain?"]
5244in a throat voice?
5244in falsetto?
5244in falsetto?
5244one and all?
5244so we may not enter into transgression?"
36532_ Yours?_he answered, with a rude laugh.
36532''"And where can this bird be found?"
36532''After all, what does it matter?''
36532''And are you not a knave for robbing me?''
36532''And how am I to come down?''
36532''And how do you know it?''
36532''And how is the nightingale singing?
36532''And how long do you think it will take?''
36532''And is there no one else who can tell the poor boy where to find the bird, if he should ever manage to reach the tower?''
36532''And now, unbeliever, what have you to say?''
36532''And now, what would you have as a reward?''
36532''And was this not true?''
36532''And what can you do?''
36532''And what have you done to the youth?''
36532''And what is that?
36532''And what is that?''
36532''And where are you going?''
36532''And where do they live?''
36532''And where is this castle?''
36532''And who is it that sings-- he who draws the water, or he who empties it?''
36532''And you really think you can cure me?''
36532''Are not eight children enough,''she cried,''without bringing us two more?
36532''Are you Ian, the soldier''s son?''
36532''Are you Ian, the soldier''s son?''
36532''Are you ill?''
36532''Are you not a great knave?''
36532''Are you not a knave, Pinkel?''
36532''At least,''said they, after a moment''s pause,''we may expect them to fetch your wife to her new home?''
36532''Biz- z- z,''said the wasp,''would you not like to be as great a chief as Insáto?''
36532''But how are you going to put the rope over her head?''
36532''But if you are a fairy, how was it that you were so nearly slain by the crow?''
36532''But the cheeses may be all finished by now?''
36532''But where_ is_ the cheese?''
36532''But you, friend frog, you are not one of these wicked people, I am sure?''
36532''But, mother,''answered the girl,''how can I find the well in this darkness?
36532''Can a son of mine have committed murder in order to possess them?''
36532''Can you lay eggs?''
36532''Can you ruffle your fur when you are angry, or purr when you are pleased?''
36532''Certainly, father; how can you suppose I should do them wrong?''
36532''Could you give me some milk and fruit?''
36532''Could you make me a pair like them?''
36532''Dear mother, do you know who it is you have been talking with?''
36532''Did n''t I say that fish would be delicious?''
36532''Do n''t you know me, mother?''
36532''Do n''t you know that either?''
36532''Do you know that you are making the water quite muddy?''
36532''Do you know who I am?''
36532''Do you mean to tell me that a jump, which the weakest Lapp boy would make nothing of, is beyond your strength?''
36532''First tell me your name?''
36532''For how much?''
36532''For_ me_?''
36532''Give you our buffalo, the Rover of the Plain?
36532''Good morning,''he said;''may I ask what is the matter?
36532''Greater than who?''
36532''Greater than who?''
36532''Greeting,''shouted Makóma,''who are you?''
36532''Have I_ ever_ done that, that you put me such a question?''
36532''Have you brought me much game to- day?''
36532''Have you forgotten me?''
36532''Have you got it?''
36532''Have you no manners in your country?''
36532''Have you no pity for a poor mother?''
36532''Have you returned with empty hands?''
36532''Have you stolen my golden goat?''
36532''Have you taken my gold cloak?''
36532''Have you, my son; and what was he like?''
36532''How am I to fetch the ring from the bottom of this river when I do not know exactly where it was dropped, and can not even see it?''
36532''How am I to get that handkerchief?''
36532''How can I find the Princess Bella- Flor when I have never even seen her?''
36532''How can I get him home?''
36532''How can I help you?''
36532''How can I, when it weighs more than I do?''
36532''How can we find them?''
36532''How can we get rid of him?''
36532''How dare you say such things?
36532''How have you got that camel and those clothes?''
36532''How is it,''said Makóma, astonished,''that we find you thus bound and helpless?''
36532''How shall we divide them?''
36532''How would you like to have a husband like that?''
36532''I am Chi- éswa- mapíri, who makes the mountains,''answered the giant,''and who are you?''
36532''I am he that is called Makóma,''answered the hero;''and, before I slay thee, tell me also what is thy name and what thou doest in the river?''
36532''I hope you are rested?''
36532''I will have the large cake,''answered the youth;''for what good would my mother''s blessing do for me if I was dying of hunger?''
36532''Is it nicer than this?''
36532''Is it not hard to meet him in this shape,''wept she,''when we both love each other so much?''
36532''Is it really, I, Désirée?''
36532''Is it safe to go on, think you?''
36532''Is it thus?''
36532''Is it you, Manus, come back again?''
36532''Is that you, Pinkel?''
36532''Is that you, Pinkel?''
36532''Is that you, Pinkel?''
36532''Is the prince dead?''
36532''Is there any way in which I can help you?''
36532''Is there no hut or cave we could go into?''
36532''Is there_ no_ way in which I can touch your heart?''
36532''Is this the country of Sákatirína of five heads, whom I am seeking?''
36532''My dearest wife, what is the matter with you?''
36532''Now I am ready,''said he;''have you anything to propose?''
36532''Oh, is it you?''
36532''Oh, is that your game?''
36532''Oh, my dear husband,''wept she,''what will you think when you come to the castle to fetch me and find me gone?
36532''Oh, my lovely princess, why did we ever leave home?''
36532''Oh, nonsense, mother; what power could a creature like that have over me?
36532''Poor child,''answered the dove,''who has sent you on such a useless quest?''
36532''So I am to have that lean creature, which is nothing but horns, am I?''
36532''So this is why you have refused to marry all the kings and princes who have sought your hand?''
36532''Speak on, knave; has a bird of the air revealed to you the secret?''
36532''The cheese?''
36532''Then who are you in the leeward, or in the windward, or in the four brown boundaries of the sea, who are able to move my battle- chain?''
36532''Then who are you in the leeward, or the windward, or in the four brown boundaries of the sea, who are able to shake my battle chain?
36532''Then will you have any of the other children?
36532''This time I have to bring her in an hour a posy of the rarest flowers, and where am I to find them?
36532''We set out to travel through the world, and what does it matter if we go to the right or to the left?''
36532''Well, Peder, and have you sold the dog?''
36532''Well, but what_ is_ it?''
36532''Well, did you get the wreath?''
36532''Well, was I not right?
36532''Well, what have I got to do?''
36532''Well, where is the silver?''
36532''Were there no stones on the hillside that you should run back to get them, you senseless one?''
36532''What am I doing?
36532''What am I to do now?''
36532''What am I to do_ now_?''
36532''What are you crying for?''
36532''What are you doing here?''
36532''What are you doing in my house?''
36532''What are you doing that for?''
36532''What are you doing that for?''
36532''What are you doing?''
36532''What are you doing?''
36532''What are you doing?''
36532''What brought you here?''
36532''What brought you here?''
36532''What brought you here?''
36532''What can I give you?''
36532''What can it be?''
36532''What can these things mean?''
36532''What chain is that?''
36532''What cloth is that?''
36532''What do you want?''
36532''What gods or men are protecting you?''
36532''What in the world is the matter?''
36532''What is it you want now?''
36532''What is it?
36532''What is the matter with you?''
36532''What is the matter, dear father?''
36532''What is the matter, fair maiden?''
36532''What is the matter?''
36532''What is the matter?''
36532''What is the use of liking?''
36532''What king?''
36532''What of the Princess Bella- Flor?''
36532''What place is this?''
36532''What shall we do to revenge ourselves on her?''
36532''What sort of a frog can you be that knows the language of mortals?''
36532''What use is this old thing to me?''
36532''What were you going to do, comrade?''
36532''What wicked fairy can have treated me so; and shall I never, never take my own shape again?
36532''What will you wish me to do with her?''
36532''Where did you get that from?''
36532''Where is my iron cane?''
36532''Where is your husband?''
36532''Where shall I spend the night?''
36532''Who are you who dare to knock at my door and wake me?''
36532''Who are you, and where do you come from?''
36532''Who are you?''
36532''Who are you?''
36532''Who is it,''he said,''making that fire smoulder around my feet?''
36532''Who was it soothed you in your trouble?
36532''Why are you so angry with us?''
36532''Why did no one tell me?
36532''Why did you summon me?''
36532''Why do you give yourself so much trouble for nought, when you might know what you want to know for the asking?
36532''Why do you have that look in your eyes?''
36532''Why do you sit there and get wet?
36532''Why may I not go where you can go?''
36532''Why should you hide me anywhere?''
36532''Why, I have given you your dinner, and what more do you want?''
36532''Why, what is the matter?''
36532''Will any one go down and see where the passage leads to?''
36532''Will you climb up and get it for me?''
36532''Will you give me a piece of tobacco?''
36532''You did not heed my counsel,''said she;''and who knows if it is not too late to win over the sea?
36532''You have failed, then?''
36532''You hear?''
36532''You seem in pain,''said one of them, fluttering close to him,''can we help you?''
36532''You sold your dead wife?''
36532''You will not mind?''
36532''You would not have had me leave them to die of hunger,''answered he,''or be swallowed up by the waves of the sea?
36532***** Who can guess the delight of the sister at the sight of her brother, bearing the Bird of Truth?
36532*****''Are you Ian, the soldier''s son?''
36532*****''Are you Ian, the soldier''s son?''
36532*****''Who has taught you this wisdom?''
36532*****''Who is there?''
36532Am I to give you tobacco for trying to peck my eyes out?''
36532And Ian made answer:''Why may I not go where you can go?''
36532And Ian made answer:''Why may I not go where you can go?''
36532And Ian took no heed, and only said:''How can I bring him home?''
36532And again he answered:''Yes, I am; but tell me, why you are weeping?''
36532And does the linnet dress herself as smartly?''
36532And has she her equal in the whole world?''
36532And how was the panther to know which was his enemy?
36532And what_ was_ it he had seen?
36532And where have you been this year past?''
36532And while these things were happening, what had become of the white doe?
36532And, even if there were, how could I catch them?''
36532Are you in search of anything?''
36532At length, one morning, the hedgehog suddenly said:''You never told me what you did with those jars?''
36532At that the man entered the gate, and beholding a strange youth, he said to him:''What is your trade, boy?''
36532But do you think he was happy?
36532But he only said:''Do you need anything to help you?''
36532But how could he do it?
36532But perhaps you will allow me to go with you and show you the way?''
36532But that was not possible, of course; and besides, what sort of companion could an ugly thing like him be to those beautiful beings?
36532But what has all this to do with the White Slipper?
36532But what is the matter with_ you_?
36532But why are you so pale, mother?''
36532But why does not my lazy girl bring the wood I sent her for, it will soon be too dark for her to find her way?
36532But will you swear never to part from it, and to keep it safely about you always?
36532But, tell me, how am I to get it?
36532But,''she added politely,''I hope that you and all your family are well?''
36532By- and- by the Sodno asked again:''And where may my second brother''s money be?''
36532Chi- gwísa- míti was taller than either of his brothers, but Makóma was not afraid and called out to him:''Who are you, O Big One?''
36532Close around the hut was thick darkness, but what was that bobbing light that streamed across the water?
36532Could anything be more exciting or more useful?
36532Could the portrait have flattered her?
36532Did you not know it?''
36532Do you mind telling me who made them?''
36532Do you see this cornet?
36532Do you think we could have something to eat?''
36532Does the lark soar as high as ever?
36532Down, down, down he went; would he_ ever_ stop going?
36532For a while he kept silence, then he whispered gently:''Tell me, dear mother, where did my eldest brother conceal his riches?''
36532For who will give you back your dowry if they are all dead?''
36532For whom, then, are prefaces written?
36532He demanded of me"Who is thy master?"
36532He had guessed truly: the tall lady was Eglantine herself; but the other-- where had he seen her?
36532Here he is well fed and lies on soft grass; but how can you tell what will befall him in another country?
36532How do you think we can feed them?''
36532How shall I punish this unnatural father, for it is left to me to give judgment?''
36532How was he to do it?
36532I hope you are quite well?''
36532I wonder how_ he_ will taste?''
36532If the castle had been gloomy, what did the queen feel about this?
36532Is not this such a place as would suit a hero for his home?
36532Is she not a miracle of beauty and grace?
36532Is the pain bad?
36532My dear friend, what are you saying?''
36532Nothing happened, so he hit again and then again until, presently, he heard a tired, far- away voice saying:''Who is it that scratches my feet?''
36532One day his mother said to him:''My child, by what name shall we know you?''
36532Only, are you not afraid to be left without my protection?
36532Shall I go to the king instead of you, and tell him of your sufferings, and that he has the most charming baby in the world for his daughter?
36532Shall I send for your ladies to bathe the place?''
36532She turned round, and-- was it her fancy?
36532Standing on her hind legs, and bowing low before her, she said gently:''Beautiful lady, by what mischance do you come here?
36532Still no doubt your father and mother will come themselves and bring the dowry?''
36532That night he asked Zéngi- mízi, in whom sat the spirit of his father, what he had better ask Sipáo for next?
36532The girl''s heart sank at this order; for how was it possible for her to do her mistress''s bidding?
36532The old puzzle remains a puzzle-- why do the stories of the remotest people so closely resemble each other?
36532The old woman started, but answered quietly:''It is a Sodno, I suppose?''
36532The princess is known to love beautiful things, perhaps she might like to buy some?''
36532The wound was certainly cured on that side, but how about the other?
36532The yard is full already; and did you_ ever_ see anything quite as ugly as that great tall creature?
36532The young man stared, not knowing what he meant, and answered, wonderingly:''I shot a buffalo; is that why you call me a murderer?''
36532Their sound awoke the witch, who cried out as before:''Is that you, Pinkel?''
36532Then he stopped, turned solemnly to his companion, and, with a movement of his hand, drew aside as it were a heavy curtain, and revealed-- what?
36532Then he turned to the jackal and said:''How would you divide them?''
36532They rode on till they came to the ant- hill, and then the horse asked:''Would you like to have the bran?''
36532Was ever any king so happy as Balancin when he satisfied himself of this?
36532Well, Hans could do that; but what would his wages be?
36532What do you mean?''
36532What do you say?''
36532What do you want?
36532What had we better do with it?''
36532What is it you want?''
36532What is this that you have done, and whither are we going?''
36532What oath would he not have taken so as to clasp his wife and child in his arms?
36532What shall we call it?''
36532What was he to do?
36532What_ is_ it?''
36532When did it begin?
36532When the village people saw him, they ran out in surprise, and said:''Where on earth do you come from, and where did you get that buffalo?''
36532Where are my lantern and my goat?
36532Where did I hide my own money?''
36532Which should she choose, the yellow or the blue, the red or the green, the gold or the silver?
36532Who can tell how long it may be?''
36532Who taught you such wisdom?''
36532Who was it brought you back in safety to your home again?
36532Who was it led you to the fairies?
36532Why have you done all this for me?''
36532Will you come with us?''
36532Will you come?''
36532Will your majesty deign to buy it?''
36532[ Illustration: MAKÓMA LEAPS INTO THE POOL OF CROCODILES]''Who are you,''cried Makóma,''that pulls up the earth in this way?''
36532[ Illustration: THE PRINCESS RETURNS FROM THE SEA]''_ Now_ what do you say?''
36532[ Illustration:''WHO ARE YOU WHO DARE TO KNOCK AT MY DOOR?'']
36532[ Illustration:{''WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FROM?''
36532answered he;''and why are you weeping?''
36532answered she,''what can I do?
36532are you_ deaf_?''
36532asked the king;''and what has the Bird of Truth to do with you?''
36532cried he;''and how much precious time have I wasted?
36532did I not speak well?
36532he cried waving his hand,''you know my name-- I am Makóma,"the Greater"; for have I not slain the crocodiles in the pool where none would venture?''
36532he said, while they all listened,''which of you will leap into the pool and overcome the crocodiles?''
36532he said,''what now shall I do?''
36532or did the fire burn more dimly than before?
36532she cried,''where could it have come from?''
36532she said;''could you give me a night''s lodging for myself and my doe?''
36532tell me, I pray you, where is the castle of Come- and- never- go?''
36532what has happened?
36532what is that bright thing that is moving so swiftly towards us?''
36532what is that?''
36532what is the use of you?''
36532what is there that you do not possess already?''
36532why were you ever born?''
36532you diggers, tell me: Who was it you heard singing over the work?''
48593Am I that Story?
48593And are you Mother Goose?
48593And did she tell you all about the Queerbodies''house and the golden jars?
48593And did you really see that enchanted Prince with your very own eyes?
48593And did you see anything of the big doll that beats you with flails?
48593And did you stop there?
48593And he would do whatever you bade him?
48593And is it still there?
48593And now what will you have as a reward?
48593And the story grandmother forgot-- oh,_ do_ you suppose I could find that story?
48593And what was it?
48593And who lives in the little furry house with the chimneys like pointed ears?
48593And you passed the dragon?
48593And you''ll bring me back word?
48593Are you real, or are you only a dream?
48593Are you really that Fatima?
48593But could n''t you let me see it? 48593 But how about the rhyme?"
48593But how did you happen to come here?
48593But is this magic gold so hard to find? 48593 But what would become of Aladdin and his castle and everything if I did?"
48593But where are they? 48593 But why not?
48593But wo n''t he follow us?
48593But, brother, how can we do that?
48593Ca n''t you unlock it?
48593Ca n''t you use something else?
48593Can everybody that comes here make puzzles like those?
48593Can you hear any sound?
48593Could n''t I go there to find it?
48593Could n''t we go round?
48593Dear Fairy Tale, where are you?
48593Did you come to look for me?
48593Did you ever see a Queerbodies''puzzle when it was finished?
48593Did you say that if you held that lamp and rubbed it a genie would come?
48593Did you want to see me?
48593Do n''t you remember the story begins with a castle where the princess lives?
48593Do you have puzzles like that at home?
48593Do you indeed dare to weave your spells against the queen?
48593Do you mean,said Ellen,"that if you had anything to begin with you could_ really_ make something to ride on?"
48593Do you suppose that is one of the Queerbodies?
48593Do you think we can get there before him?
48593Do you want to go and see mistress?
48593Do you? 48593 Give me a ride?"
48593Has Middling finished his roast beef?
48593Hast thou any further commands?
48593Have n''t you anything in your pocket to begin on?
48593Have you dolls?
48593He frightens me,Ellen whispered back,"but what can I do?"
48593How do you come to be leading it about the country? 48593 How is that?"
48593How would you do it?
48593How?
48593I do n''t suppose your gander could carry double?
48593I suppose you know my story? 48593 I wonder if I were to blow upon the horn the huntsman gave me whether some one would hear and answer?"
48593I wonder if they thought I had come here to steal the lamp?
48593If I were to get a castle for you could you finish the story?
48593Is it not just as I told you? 48593 Is not this the magic gold?"
48593Is that the story?
48593Is there no light before us yet?
48593May I come in?
48593May my gander come in too?
48593Me go?
48593Mistress, did I not beat them well?
48593Mistress, do you see light before us?
48593Mistress,said the gander,"Where is the key that the lady Fatima gave you?
48593Now, what have you been doing?
48593Oh, what''s that?
48593Shall I return it to the castle?
48593Sister Anne, Sister Anne, do you still hear nothing?
48593So then you cooked some porridge?
48593Stringing stars?
48593Then what are you going to do?
48593Then what shall we do?
48593Then what_ am_ I to do?
48593Then what_ are_ we to do?
48593Was that you blowing a horn?
48593We are safe now, but we ca n''t stay here; and how are we to get away without his catching us?
48593Well, is n''t that it there?
48593Well, the great thing now is how are you to get out?
48593What are some of the other tricks he plays?
48593What are some of the things they do?
48593What are you listening to? 48593 What became of it?"
48593What can I do, mother?
48593What did you forget?
48593What did you suppose would live in Mother Goose''s house?
48593What do you mean by coming and disturbing me here in my cave?
48593What in the world''s the matter now?
48593What is a scarecrow?
48593What is it, Jack?
48593What is it, Sister? 48593 What is it, mother?"
48593What is that?
48593What is that?
48593What is this task they have set you?
48593What mischief shall we begin with?
48593What shall I do with the lamp?
48593What story is he in?
48593What was it about?
48593What was that?
48593What was the trick?
48593What wouldst thou have?
48593What''s its name?
48593What''s that?
48593What''s the matter, you poor little pig?
48593What''s this?
48593What_ do_ you mean?
48593Where are we now?
48593Where are you going this pleasant day?
48593Where do you live?
48593Where do you live?
48593Where''s our good dinner of soup and meat?
48593Who are these whom you have dared to bring hither?
48593Who are you, and what do you want here?
48593Who are you?
48593Who caught it?
48593Who is it?
48593Who is there?
48593Who is there?
48593Who is this?
48593Who live in all these other houses?
48593Who lives in the house beyond that?
48593Who lives there?
48593Who was Snowdrop?
48593Why are you here?
48593Why did n''t you say so before? 48593 Why did n''t you see it before?"
48593Why do n''t you make a scarecrow to frighten them away? 48593 Why do n''t you take me up on your wings and fly out of the window?"
48593Why do you say that?
48593Why, granny, do n''t you know the little bear''s voice was so thin and shrill it woke little Silverhair right up? 48593 Why, is that a forgotten story?"
48593Why, one time when our raspberries were ripe old Shave- head came here--"Who''s Shave- head?
48593Why, what is it made of?
48593Why, what is this?
48593Why? 48593 Will you have the golden harp?
48593Wilt thou now have the castle, the treasures, the slaves and horsemen that I promised thee?
48593Would you like to look inside?
48593Wouldst thou not wish to keep it?
48593Yes, but where could you get a castle, you little girl?
48593You are a real child, are n''t you? 48593 You have escaped me this time, but I have as much time to spend as you, and how will it be when you have to come out again?"
48593You naughty little pig, why did n''t you come home?
48593_ Aladdin!_ Do you mean the Aladdin who has the wonderful lamp?
48593After Ellen had looked at them she asked,"Did the goat paint them that way?"
48593Again the same voice within called,"Sister Anne, Sister Anne, do you hear nothing now?"
48593And then you have to come all that long way to get here again?"
48593And what do you want to set about, now that you are here?"
48593And where wilt thou have it?"
48593Are they good to eat?"
48593As the little pig hurried in through the door, Ellen asked of the other,"Is this your house?"
48593But did you come across the desert?"
48593But do you want to make it over?"
48593But hast thou no further wishes?"
48593But how about this lad?
48593But how did you find your way to the door, in the first place?"
48593But how will you get me down?"
48593But the father always wanted to be sure his goat had had enough, so he would go out himself and say,''Goat have you had enough to- day?''
48593But what did your forgotten story look like?
48593But what was all that we saw?
48593But would n''t you like to see it closer?
48593Ca n''t you remember?
48593Can you tell me anything about it?"
48593Did he come on the gander too?"
48593Did they think they could scare us with that?
48593Do n''t you think I look like the pictures?"
48593Do n''t you think he would let me look at it?"
48593Do n''t you?"
48593Do you know whether they''re cross giants or not?"
48593Do you see all these doorways?"
48593Do you think they''ll hurt us?
48593Every time before the boy brought the goat home he would ask,''Goat, have you had enough?''
48593Have I sent three sons packing from their father''s house and frightened a bear from his cave to be ordered out of my house at last by some pigs?"
48593Have you ever seen a bird after a little butterfly?
48593How do you suppose there could be rhymes unless there was something to make them about?"
48593How long is it since it was forgotten,--this story that you want?"
48593How_ can_ I destroy it?"
48593I guess I''ve been forgotten, have n''t I?
48593I meant are they pleasant, merry people?"
48593I punished him well for it, but what good did that do?
48593I suppose you''ve heard of Bluebeard, have n''t you?"
48593If you live near here would you mind taking care of him and seeing that he gets food and water?"
48593Is it your goat?"
48593Is that your gander?
48593Now you do n''t happen to have such a thing about you as a twig or a chip of wood?"
48593Only, how would you get there?
48593Or what?"
48593Or will you have a bag of golden money?
48593Presently she asked,"How many brothers have you?"
48593Queer looking house is n''t it?"
48593Shall I tell you the story?"
48593Suddenly a voice beside her said,"Why do you weep so bitterly, Princess?"
48593The slaves now rose from the ground with a relieved look,"And you are really not a magician?"
48593Then she asked,"Where do you live?"
48593Then,"Are you,--are you the forgotten Story I came to find?"
48593There Ellen knocked and a rough voice within asked,"Who is that knocking at my door?"
48593There was a moment''s silence, and then a voice within called,"Sister Anne, Sister Anne, did you hear anything?"
48593What are you doing here, child?"
48593What are you going to do with it?"
48593What did he do?"
48593What for?"
48593What was it, little Clara?
48593What was it?
48593What was it?
48593When she had reached that point she would stop and say,"Ah, what was it that came next?
48593Where did you come from, and where are you going?
48593Where did you get it?"
48593Who is there?"
48593Why did they shut the door?"
48593Will you let me see it?"
48593You wo n''t go away and leave me here alone again, will you?"
48593You''ll stay made up now, wo n''t you?"
48593[ Illustration]"Was that a parade that just went away?"
48593_ Chapter Eight__ Bluebeard''s House_"Mistress, do you see that gray mist before us?"
48593_ Do_ you suppose it''s there?"
48593he said to Ellen, looking at the pig with pride,"how is that for a riding- horse?"
40573Afraid of the dark?
40573All right; but you wo n''t be long, will you?
40573And have you found any one yet who has so brave a heart that the thistles can not hurt it?
40573And now you are here, do you think it is true?
40573And what is that?
40573And what is that?
40573And whose Prince may he be, then?
40573And why should you do anything so useless? 40573 Are not the beautiful sounds of life enough for you?"
40573Are these the beautiful scarlet beans that grow in my kitchen- garden? 40573 Are they all cowards in your country, then?"
40573Are those beans?
40573Are you a witch?
40573Are you not the King, then?
40573But do you see nothing else?
40573But does it not scratch your fingers to gather those large prickly thistles?
40573But how is it, little lady, that you can see me?
40573But if I can not hear you cry, how am I to comfort you?
40573But in what direction?
40573But they wo n''t come off the dishes, will they?
40573But what if she pulls down your wonderful palace?
40573But what sounds do you call beautiful?
40573But where are the eyes and the nose and the mouth?
40573But who lives here?
40573But why did it not fly to the moon this afternoon, when all the other boys were looking on?
40573But why does not someone disenchant your kingdom?
40573But,stammered the King,"how am I to appease the army?
40573Can it be that you do not feel happy at court?
40573Can you not go to court without being a princess? 40573 Can you not hear my music?"
40573Can you not try to be happy, just for five minutes?
40573Can you tell me where she is?
40573Can you tell me where she is?
40573Can you tell me why my kite wo n''t fly?
40573Could anything be more foolish than to keep away from some one whom you want to be with?
40573Crying? 40573 Did n''t I tell you my kite was going to the moon?"
40573Did you ever see anything so dull?
40573Did you say_ foolish_?
40573Do n''t you?
40573Do the wymps disappear every night, too?
40573Do they?
40573Do you know that you are the first person I have met, and that you are going to tell me how to become a real boy?
40573Do you know,he said,"that I have only to pull out the brick on which I am standing, and the whole palace will tumble down on your head?"
40573Do you mean to say we have disappeared now?
40573Do you mean to say you know where the kite has gone?
40573Do you mean to say you''ve stopped the war?
40573Do you steer by the points of the compass?
40573Do you suppose the Witch''s daughter wants anybody else''s Prince, either?
40573Do you suppose we would allow ourselves to be commanded by a mere Prince? 40573 Do you think she will?"
40573Do you think we shall find it soon?
40573Do you want me to teach you a new spell?
40573Do_ you_ know the way to make your legs grow long?
40573Does it not smell sweet?
40573Enough?
40573Father,he cried,"why did you ask the wymps to my christening?"
40573Foolish?
40573Funny? 40573 Has your Majesty decided how to punish the prisoner?"
40573Have n''t you done that sum yet?
40573Have you always been deaf?
40573Have you had good sport to- day?
40573Have you something to eat in your bag, something that will please a hungry little girl who has had no tea?
40573How are we going to discover why your kite wo n''t fly?
40573How can I do sums when my kite wo n''t fly?
40573How can I find out the way?
40573How can I help seeing you, if you are there?
40573How can you expect me to be happy, even for five minutes, when every five minutes is exactly like the last five minutes?
40573How dare you hesitate when I tell you to come here?
40573How is it to be done?
40573How long do you think we shall have to go on walking before we find the right person?
40573How_ did_ you learn to grow so tall?
40573Hunt?
40573If you please,she said as politely as she could,"will you lift me over this great, big, high stile?"
40573If you please,she said politely,"can you tell me when we shall get to the moon?"
40573If you will not let me play with a boy who is deaf, how can you expect me to play with a_ doll_?
40573Is it not hard,pouted the Green Enchantress,"that I can not bewitch the King?"
40573Is it-- can it be the man in the moon?
40573Is n''t it a nice change to have somebody else''s eyes?
40573Is n''t it wonderful?
40573Is that true?
40573Is there a witch in the forest?
40573It is n''t any use; I never said I wanted to be King, did I?
40573It-- it is rather full of fog, is n''t it?
40573May I ask what you want with her?
40573May I play with you, then?
40573Must I live to the end of my days without hearing any of the things that other boys hear?
40573Next time?
40573Now, what ever induced you to paint a thing like the moon on anybody''s kite, eh?
40573Now, what is it you want me to do for you?
40573Of course it is,answered Kit, who liked to have_ his_ talking done for him;"but how shall I find something worth fighting about?"
40573Of course not,sighed the Prince;"you ca n''t expect people to talk about a thing that is n''t there, can you?
40573Of course, I should like to paint your side of the sun very much, but it is a little difficult when I have n''t ever been there, is n''t it?
40573Perhaps it does,the old woman said shortly;"but who do you suppose is going to gather them for me?"
40573Please, may I take my kite back with me?
40573Shall I never go to court, then?
40573Silent?
40573Tell us,they begged her afterwards,"are you really the Green Enchantress?"
40573The wymp was quite wrong, was n''t he?
40573Then do you think the Princess_ will_ marry me?
40573Then how is it that you do not know the magician?
40573Then what about to- night?
40573Then why are you looking for the bravest boy of all?
40573Then why do n''t you go and learn to be a real boy?
40573Then you do n''t really think he is an old muddler?
40573There is always a prince on the other side; but why should that make you unhappy? 40573 Well, my little fellow,"he said in a friendly tone,"what do you want out of my bag?"
40573Well, my little friend,he said to the Prince,"where are you running so fast, this fine morning?"
40573Well, what can I do for you?
40573Well,he said at last,"can you not hear the sounds of the forest?"
40573Well,said Dimples, demurely,"_ has_ your Majesty made up his mind?"
40573Well,said a voice somewhere near,"what do you think of it?"
40573Well,said his Majesty,"did you discover the reason?"
40573Well,she said,"I suppose you are real, though I did n''t think so before; and I suppose I am real, too; but it is rather confusing, is n''t it?"
40573What are all those soldiers doing on the table?
40573What are you doing, Prunella?
40573What are you doing?
40573What are you going to do when you have rescued her?
40573What are you looking for?
40573What did you see when you looked over your wall, little daughter?
40573What difference does that make?
40573What do you all mean by nine times?
40573What do you know about it?
40573What do you mean?
40573What do you suppose they have four legs for?
40573What do you want?
40573What does it matter how the stars are painted? 40573 What for?"
40573What has the prisoner done?
40573What hunt? 40573 What is that creature doing in my country?"
40573What is that girl doing in my palace?
40573What is that?
40573What is the matter now?
40573What is the matter with the child?
40573What is the matter with you?
40573What is the matter, my son?
40573What is the matter?
40573What is the use of a kite that wo n''t fly?
40573What is the use of being King, if you do not know everybody who lives in your kingdom?
40573What is the use of being an enchantress if people refuse to be enchanted?
40573What more can the child want?
40573What shall I do when I get there?
40573What, already?
40573What?
40573When are you going to tell me all the things you know?
40573When shall I be as tall as the Lady Daffodilia?
40573When will that be, Jerry?
40573Where are we going, Jerry?
40573Where are you going?
40573Where are you going?
40573Where are you going?
40573Where did you come from and who are you and how long have you been here?
40573Where does the magician live?
40573Where else should you be at your time of life?
40573Where is the hundredth Princess?
40573Which is the way?
40573Who are you?
40573Who are you?
40573Who is daring to make all this commotion in my country?
40573Who is he? 40573 Who is the King?"
40573Who said anything about shining? 40573 Who taught you to sing that song about me?"
40573Why are you looking so sad?
40573Why could n''t we go to- night?
40573Why did n''t I think of that before?
40573Why did they throw dust in my eyes?
40573Why did you say he was a muddler?
40573Why did you want to bewitch me, dearest?
40573Why do n''t you look where you are going?
40573Why do you want to be executed?
40573Why have I got to invade the country of King Topsyturvy?
40573Why not?
40573Why should I come twice when once would do?
40573Why should it be dull? 40573 Why should we bring any more crying children into the palace?
40573Why?
40573Will it please you to tell me now?
40573Will not your father go and live in the forest for a change, so that we can play there together, instead of in this horrible, silent place?
40573Will you come to the ball and dance with me?
40573Will you come to the ball?
40573Will you let me look at them?
40573Will you promise?
40573Will you tell me why you are so sad?
40573Will you?
40573Will_ you_ tell me what is on the other side of my wall?
40573Wo n''t it do if you invent a reason?
40573Would it please your Majesty to tell me what she is like?
40573Would n''t your kite fly? 40573 Would the conductor show us the way?"
40573Yes, yes,said deaf Robert;"but what else?"
40573You are not going to punish the prisoner at all?
40573You mean on the spur of a moment, do n''t you?
40573You would sooner go to the moon than the back of the sun? 40573 _ Now_ may I come and play in your garden?"
40573And who told you children that you might come into my country, I should like to know?"
40573Are you a witch?"
40573But do you know where they are?"
40573But does it not make you very thirsty to lie in this hot dusty road?"
40573But how am I to find him?"
40573But supposing that I find your Prince first, how shall I know that he_ is_ your Prince?"
40573But tell me, why is it that you are invisible?"
40573But then, as he could not hear what she said to him, what was the use of speaking like a princess?
40573Ca n''t we go home, Jerry, and put off seeing the world until to- morrow?"
40573Can you not choose one of these others instead?"
40573Can you not hear them all talking,--the bees and the flowers and the great pine- trees?"
40573Can you not tell me something new?"
40573Did n''t you say something about a Princess?"
40573Do n''t you think it_ is_ a beautiful kingdom?"
40573Do you mean to say that all this while I have been playing with somebody else''s Prince?"
40573Do you not hear anything either?"
40573Do you think she can?"
40573Do you think she will want to marry him, when she hears that he is somebody else''s Prince?"
40573Has any one ever gone after it to see?"
40573Has not her godmother given her such wonderful toys that they can play with her as well as be played with?"
40573How are we to get there, magician?"
40573How is that?"
40573Is he not a nice prince?"
40573Is it not very unpleasant to be so short, when you are a boy?"
40573Is n''t that it?"
40573It is not at all a nice place for a Princess to be in, but how am I to get her away?"
40573Meanwhile, where is the Princess?"
40573Now, would you like to have it on the floor, or shall I call up a table?"
40573Shall I send you up in a flash of lightning or on the spur of a lark?"
40573Shall we go home now?"
40573So you can not hear the Princess cry, eh?
40573They stop all the games by fighting about nothing at all; and it''s dreadfully dull when you''re a girl, is n''t it?"
40573Was something really going to happen at last?
40573What are you doing here?"
40573What is his name?"
40573What is that?"
40573What is the meaning of this?"
40573What is the use of having a palace when you do n''t know what it is like inside?"
40573What is to be done?"
40573What more can you want?
40573What will people say next?"
40573When do you want to begin?"
40573When will you tell me?"
40573Where am I?"
40573Where have you been, Jerry?"
40573Where would you be, if you did n''t borrow bits of light from the countries of the sky, eh?"
40573Who said it did n''t disappear, eh?
40573Will you come?"
40573Will you manage it alone, or shall I send a conductor with it?"
40573Will you please send for the Princess?"
40573Will you tell me?"
40573Wo n''t you let me come and play in your garden?
40573Would it not be wiser to make friends with him?"
40573You ca n''t do much more than that with three paints and a brush that''s got hardly any hairs, can you?"
40573You could n''t even say the exports and imports of Fairyland without looking in the book first; now, could you?"
40573exclaimed the Princess;"you have promised to marry a witch''s daughter?
40573said the Weird Witch, with her voice full of kindness;"why should I make them climb up all this way, just to see me?"
40573said the giant, in a huge voice that made the grass stand on end with fright, just as it does after a hoar- frost;"what''s this?
40573she said,"why have you come back again?"
36385''A platter it shall be,''said the man;''but what have you in your knapsack?'' 36385 ''Am I to have your daughter?''
36385''And are you full of fun, that you carry a fiddle about with you?'' 36385 ''And pray what did you do with the gimlet?''
36385''And pray what shall I say to them?'' 36385 ''And pray whom did you meet?''
36385''And what did you do with it?'' 36385 ''And what did you do with the meal, I''d like to know?''
36385''And what did you take to- day?'' 36385 ''And what then did you do with the needles?''
36385''And what was it you met?'' 36385 ''And what was it you met?''
36385''And what was that?'' 36385 ''And what was that?''
36385''And whom did you meet?'' 36385 ''And whom did you meet?''
36385''Are they?'' 36385 ''Are you poor?
36385''Are you? 36385 ''Art thou come into the pit at last, Reynard?''
36385''But now do you know what I have hit upon?'' 36385 ''But what does it cost?''
36385''But what have you done with that new green gown I meant for my daughter- in- law?'' 36385 ''But what was his wrong- doing?''
36385''But what was it you said?'' 36385 ''But where shall I find him?''
36385''But whither was it that I rolled you that you got all this wealth?'' 36385 ''Ca n''t you befool me, now?''
36385''Ca n''t you drink as well with me as with anyone else?'' 36385 ''Ca n''t you drink as well with me as with anyone else?''
36385''Ca n''t you drink with me as well as with any one else?'' 36385 ''Ca n''t you go and fetch them?''
36385''Can that be your father? 36385 ''Cats?''
36385''Dear friend, give me a morsel of food, do?'' 36385 ''Did you ever feel such hot pitch?''
36385''Did you ever see such a wide mouth?'' 36385 ''Do you know who that is in there, mother?''
36385''Do you know,''said the sheep,''why it is you are so well off, and why it is they fatten you and take such pains with you?'' 36385 ''Do you mean business?''
36385''Do you see anything now?'' 36385 ''Do you see anything now?''
36385''Do you see anything now?'' 36385 ''Do you see anything?''
36385''Do you think now there would be any one who would be willing to pay all this for an executed sinner?'' 36385 ''Do you think this is big enough?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy,''said Bruin;''have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy,''said the bear- cub;''have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy,''said the sun;''have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?''
36385''Good day, Mrs. Pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, good sirs, and thanks for our last merry meeting,''said the goose;''whither away so fast to- day?''
36385''Good day, good sirs, and thanks for our last merry meeting,''she said,''how far are you trotting to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, good sirs,''said the cock,''and thanks for our last merry meeting; whither are ye going to- day, gentlemen?''
36385''Good day, grandsire,''said the fox,''what''s that so nice that you have there?'' 36385 ''Good day, pussy,''said the bell- cow;''have you had any food to- day?''
36385''Good day, pussy,''said the goodman;''have you had any food to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day, pussy,''said the goody;''are you here, and have you eaten up your food yet?''
36385''Good day, pussy; have you had anything to eat to- day?'' 36385 ''Good day,''said Reynard,''I heard you crowing so nicely; but can you stand on one leg and crow, and wink your eyes?''
36385''Have n''t you made a bargain that you would always keep the ship dry and tight?'' 36385 ''Have you met my horse and sledge?''
36385''Have you seen any one riding by here with a lovely maiden, and a horse with a gold bit, and a golden bird and a gilded linden- tree?'' 36385 ''Have you seen anything of King Valemon, the white bear?''
36385''Have you seen my horse and sledge?'' 36385 ''Have you seen my horse and sledge?''
36385''Here''s the palace right and ready,''he called out''may I have her now?'' 36385 ''How is that?''
36385''I can but try,''said Boots;''I may have leave, perhaps, to take one of my crew with me?'' 36385 ''I dare say,''said the lad,''it''s a long way off?''
36385''I wonder, now,''said the man on Whitsun- eve,''whether the mill will burn down this Whitsuntide, too?'' 36385 ''Is it so?''
36385''Is it?'' 36385 ''Is n''t it to be had for any other price?''
36385''Is that you, master?'' 36385 ''Is the wort strong enough?''
36385''Is there no one else on board the ship than those I see?'' 36385 ''MAY I HAVE YOUR DAUGHTER NOW?''
36385''Maybe it was you who was to have him?'' 36385 ''Must I go all the way back to the town for the sake of a silver penny?
36385''Nay, nay, never fear, he would n''t look inside it; was it likely?'' 36385 ''No doubt you have got what I thought of?''
36385''No, no,''she cried,''can it be that Christian folk dare to come hither? 36385 ''Now what will you have?''
36385''Oh, shall I, shall I?'' 36385 ''Oh?''
36385''Sha''n''t I have anything, then, for clothes?'' 36385 ''Shall we reap the field now?''
36385''So soon home, master?'' 36385 ''Tell me first,''said the king;''how far the east is from the west?''
36385''Then you can tell me,''said the king,''who has taken my ring?'' 36385 ''This you call living well, and you say that you live best?''
36385''WHO IS IT THAT STEALS MY LINDEN AND MY BIRD?'' 36385 ''WHO IS IT WHO TRIES TO STEAL MY HORSE AND MY BIT?''
36385''WHO IS THAT,''said some one inside the hill,''that knocks at my door, and spoils my rest?'' 36385 ''Was it you, maybe, who was to have him?''
36385''Well, what shall I buy with this?'' 36385 ''Well; what did he want for it?''
36385''Were you gone after christening water, that you were gone so long?'' 36385 ''What ails you, dame Partlet, that you sit there sobbing and sighing?''
36385''What are these,''asked the bridegroom,''who have so little to live on, and yet are in such good plight? 36385 ''What are you digging for?''
36385''What are you to do out in the world?'' 36385 ''What did you buy to- day now?''
36385''What did you do with the hay?'' 36385 ''What did you get?''
36385''What did you take for toll to- day?'' 36385 ''What do you say,''said the man;''shall we shear it?
36385''What do you sit here for, you sir?'' 36385 ''What do you want for that pot?''
36385''What does it cost?'' 36385 ''What have you done?''
36385''What have you got in your bag, mother?'' 36385 ''What have you got in your basket to- day?''
36385''What have you got in your basket?'' 36385 ''What have you got in your basket?''
36385''What have you got in your wallet?'' 36385 ''What have you got in your wallet?''
36385''What have you got there?'' 36385 ''What is going on here?''
36385''What is that?'' 36385 ''What is this you have done?''
36385''What kind of chap are you?'' 36385 ''What shall I do now?''
36385''What sort of a chap are you?'' 36385 ''What sort of a chap are you?''
36385''What sort of a chap are you?'' 36385 ''What sort of a chap are you?''
36385''What was it you bought?'' 36385 ''What was it you did?''
36385''What will you give for the lift?'' 36385 ''What will you give me if I free you from the Dragon?''
36385''What will you take to roll me down the same way?'' 36385 ''What''s all this?''
36385''What''s all this?'' 36385 ''What''s that you say?''
36385''What, you here, my boy?
36385''What, you here, my boy?'' 36385 ''Whatever have you got there?''
36385''When rides the princess to her lover to- night?'' 36385 ''Where does he live, then?''
36385''Where is he?'' 36385 ''Where is that Peik?''
36385''Where is the Sound due? 36385 ''Where is your daughter?''
36385''Where is your mistress, pray?'' 36385 ''Where was it you hid the golden scissors I gave you yesterday, my darling?''
36385''Whither away so fast, Reynard?'' 36385 ''Whither away?''
36385''Whither away?'' 36385 ''Whither away?''
36385''Whither away?'' 36385 ''Whither away?''
36385''Whither away?'' 36385 ''Whither away?''
36385''Whither in heaven''s name is the sheriff bound to- day? 36385 ''Who am I?
36385''Who was it you were talking with? 36385 ''Why are you lying there, and what are you gazing at?
36385''Why do n''t you eat out of the tub of oats?'' 36385 ''Why is it you are such a figure?''
36385''Why is it,''said the young man,''that the king''s castle is hung with black?'' 36385 ''Why not, when goodman Chanticleer has fallen into the cask and drowned himself; and dame Partlet sits in the ingle, and sighs and sobs?
36385''Why not? 36385 ''Why not?''
36385''Why not?'' 36385 ''Why not?''
36385''Why not?'' 36385 ''Why who in the world is this?''
36385''Will you buy a pig to- day?'' 36385 ''Will you sell it then?''
36385''Yes; why not?'' 36385 ''You gather these nuts and carry them to your house?''
36385And what do you think she saw there? 36385 And what made it?"
36385And, pray, what was that?
36385But can you guess what there was in the box? 36385 Did n''t he know?
36385So they went on far and farther than far, and then the ass said again,''Do you see anything now?''
36385So when he got to the spot where he had buried the parson the sheriff pulled out the billy- goat, and asked--''Had your parson horns?''
36385So when they had been a while on the way, and had travelled far, far away over land and strand, the ass said one day,''Do you see anything?''
36385So when they had gone far, and farther than far away, over land and strand, and hill and heath, the ass asked,''Do you see anything now?''
36385So when they had gone on farther and farther than far again, the ass asked again,''Do you see anything now?''
36385So when they had travelled on a while, the ass asked,''Do you see anything now?''
36385The Birds saw this, and twittered out,--''Why do you quiver and quake, Miss Aspen?''
36385Then the merchant said to himself,''Did n''t the lad say I was to buy what I could get for his penny?'' 36385 What sort of a chap are you?''
36385When the Chair heard that, it said--''What ails you, Handquern, that you grind and groan so fast and oft?''
36385When the Door heard that, it said,--''What''s the matter?
36385When the church- goers came on board, the captain said,''Wherever did you get all that food for the dog? 36385 When they had gone a good bit still, the ass asked,"''Do you see anything now?''
36385Why, Peter,said Anders,"what brought you out in such Deil''s weather?"
36385''Almost as pretty as when the parson preaches in church; but can you stand on one leg and wink both your eyes at once?
36385''Are you standing there whetting your nose, poor old cripple that you are?''
36385''But do n''t folk keep cats here?''
36385''But what sort of man are you?''
36385''Can I get house- room here to- night?''
36385''Can I get house- room here to- night?''
36385''Can I get house- room to- night?''
36385''Can I have house- room here to- night?''
36385''Do I meet my kinsfolk here so far out in the country?''
36385''Do n''t you remember how I served you three years for three pence?''
36385''Have you lost anything here?''
36385''Have you seen anything of King Valemon, the white bear?''
36385''How can you think of such a thing?
36385''How far off is it to the inn?''
36385''It did not fare so well either with Peter or Paul, and what do you think will become of you?''
36385''It was you, maybe, who was to have him?''
36385''May I have house- room here to- night?''
36385''What is it you''re thinking of?''
36385''Where else should I sit?"
36385''Why should it?
36385''Why, of course, you must bid them"God''s Peace,"Do n''t you know that?''
36385''Will you let me have house- room here to- night?''
36385''Would n''t it boil?''
36385''You would eat the man, would you, who saved your life?''
36385And pray how was it that you got to be such a fine gentleman?''
36385And then again,''Are you poor?
36385And then he went on,''When was I ever your master?''
36385And what do you think he did with the ring when he got it?
36385And when they had gone far, and farther than far, the white bear asked,--"''Have you ever sat softer, and have you ever seen clearer?''
36385Are you there?''
36385As for food he got none, was it likely?
36385At last Edward, who was rather afraid of Anders and his jokes on his sportsmanship, whispered to me,"Ca n''t you make him tell us some more stories?
36385At last he said,''Shall we swop our fare?''
36385Axe?''
36385Besides, brownies hated water, they could n''t bear to cross a running stream; then how could they live in a mill?
36385But for how many do you work, I should like to know?''
36385But he knew a way how to get in, for he crept through the key- hole, and what do you think he saw there?
36385But sometimes ye stand and loiter on the way, and then it may well be asked, What will become of you?
36385But the old lass cried out,--"''Canst thou not sit still, thou whirligig thief, and not go twisting and turning?
36385But then there came about him such a swarm of little Trolls, and each asked the other in full cry,--"''What has my lord to order?
36385Ca n''t you tell us''Grumblegizzard?''"
36385Can you do that?''
36385Chair?''
36385Did you see the deer yesterday?"
36385Do you beg for a penny for Heaven''s sake?
36385Do you beg?''
36385Do you hear what I say?''
36385Do you hear?''
36385Do you know now what it is good for?''
36385Do you see that magpie yonder, sitting in the spruce fir?
36385Do you think he can get that, my darling?''
36385Does n''t the Bible speak of evil spirits?
36385Good or bad, why should n''t I believe in them?
36385Halloa, you sir, why are you sitting there, blocking up the way?
36385Have n''t I carried him till the sweat ran down my face?''
36385Have you any lead, master?
36385Have you ropes and cord, master?
36385Have you seen if King Valemon, the white bear, has passed this way?''
36385How can you ever help us to build a house?''
36385How did we get there?
36385I have three daughters,''said the King;''it rests with you which you will have?''
36385It''s full to the brim,''roared out the king;''do n''t you see how it is foaming over?''
36385May n''t we just as well reap it?''
36385May n''t we just as well reap the field after all?''
36385Now if that were not a fairy I should like to know what it was?"
36385So he took the Three- Sister Sword, and gave it a stroke between the horns, and said,--"''When rides the princess to see her lover to- night?''
36385So when he got home, the goody asked again--"''What did you take to- day?''
36385So when they had travelled far and farther than far, the white bear asked,--"''Have you ever seen clearer, and have you ever sat softer?''
36385Solvy, Solvy, Is my darling?''
36385Stove?''
36385Stretch out well, do you hear?''
36385Then he went on,''Have you any meat in the house, old lass?''
36385Then he''ll ask,"What''s become of the ferry- boat?"
36385Then he''ll ask,"Where''s your grey mare?"
36385Then he''ll ask,"Whereabouts is your sheepcote and shieling?"
36385There stood the King in the porch, and as soon as he set eyes on the lad, he said,--"''Whither away to- day, Peik?''
36385What has my lord to order?''
36385What was to be done?
36385What''ll you bet I do n''t bag it, as we stand here?''
36385When did you ever hear of shearing a field?''
36385Where have you put the soul?''
36385Who could it be?
36385Who could it be?
36385Why in the world do you sit so far back in the church?''
36385are you sitting there, Peik?''
36385art thou, too, sitting in this room, thou mare- flayer?
36385asked Boots''and what good is it that you lie there on the ground, listening?''
36385asked Boots, and what good is it that you lie there sucking at that tap?''
36385asked Boots,''and why in the world do you stand here holding your throat?''
36385asked Boots;''and what''s the good of your limping and hopping on one leg, with seven hundred weight on the other?''
36385asked Edward;"was it anything like this?"
36385but I may put my silken pockethandkerchief between us?''
36385but blindman''s buff,''said Boots,''have n''t you a mind to play blindman''s buff?''
36385but"Fat"and"Lean,"said the goody, who wished to turn it off;''what have you done with them?''
36385can you kill folk and blow life into them again?
36385cried out the king,''how could you say you did not know?''
36385here I sit, sure enough; where else should I sit?''
36385it is something like a pipe,''said Boots,''and it''s not to be had for money; but do you see that white horse yonder down there?''
36385said Boots,''and why is it that you stand there aiming and aiming?''
36385said Boots,''that you lie here eating granite?''
36385said Peik,''how could I get on at all if I could n''t?
36385said dame Partlet;''when goodman Chanticleer has fallen into the cask and drowned himself, and lies dead?
36385said his mother;''do you think a stone can freeze?
36385said the cat, and purred and was in a sad way,''what''s to be done now?
36385said the goody,''where is it?''
36385said the king;''but as you are so wise, perhaps you can tell me what I am thinking about now?''
36385said the king;''but tell me now what you think I am worth, as you see me stand here?''
36385said the king;''who was it, then?''
36385said the lad;''but tell me, whence do you come, and what sort of man are you?''
36385said the lad;''but who are you, and whence do you come?''
36385said the troll,''are you sitting here combing Christian folk''s hair?
36385said the troll,''what are you gazing at now?''
36385said the troll,''what are you staring at?
36385she bawled out, and came running out with the ladle of porridge in her fist,''may I have leave to stroke that pretty bird of yours?''
36385she called out;''what are you tearing the brooms to bits for?''
36385that''s your game, is it?''
36385that''s your game, is it?''
36385then you believe in the Good People?"
36385was it likely?
36385what shall we do?''
36385what was it you said?''
36385where should I get meat?''
36385who can tell what will become of every one of us?
36385why all this slamming and banging?''
36385why not?
36385why not?''
36385why should n''t I?''
36385will you all go?
36385will you let me have house- room here to- night?''
36385wo n''t you stop?
36385you are surely ill, if you are not at death''s door?''
36385you sitting here, you Peik?''
37455''Ave a bit o''orange, dearie?
37455A nice comparison people would draw, eh?
37455All in my bag? 37455 Already?
37455Am I King of Fairyland? 37455 Amusing, is n''t it?"
37455And does he never grow older, Mummy?
37455And pray, sire, where did you hear about that? 37455 And so your father married at the age of ten or thereabouts, did he?
37455And what brings me this honour?
37455And where did he come from?
37455And where might that happen to be?
37455And who are you, please?
37455And who do you fancy it was, dearie?
37455Any particular Thompson? 37455 Are you children ready?"
37455Are you sure?
37455Are you taking leave of your senses? 37455 Besides, what will you do with it?"
37455Bless me, what''s that?
37455But have you got the fee?-the half- crown you must pay for the search?
37455But how do you know that?
37455But if he invites me to tea with him?
37455But is it true?
37455But who are you, my dear? 37455 But why did the Hedgehog titter?
37455But you require an answer, or why knock?
37455But,said the cautious Dulcie,"sha''n''t we be drownded?"
37455Ca n''t I?
37455Ca n''t you do it for less?
37455Can Grandnurse really think there is a man in the moon?
37455Can I fetch it? 37455 Can I help you, as you have no maid?"
37455Chimney?
37455Come with me, indeed? 37455 Could this,"he asked himself,"be some dreadful trick of the Wizard''s-- likely to occur at the last?"
37455Did he recognise you, do you think?
37455Did you really?
37455Did you, too, see the Fish- King during the storm?
37455Do n''t you remember, Cyril, my saying how gloomy this place looked when we entered it the first time? 37455 Do they race better than new ones?"
37455Do you believe there is such a thing as a Sea- serpent, little Sis?
37455Do you call coming here no harm?
37455Do you ever see the_ Times_, boys?
37455Do you give it up?
37455Do you know, Mother, I always wonder, when there''s snow, where all the grass is and what''s underneath? 37455 Do you mind holding my crown one moment, my dear?"
37455Do you want to see him? 37455 Eh, what''s that?
37455Eh, what? 37455 Eh,_ what_?"
37455Give you the blessed bird and be reported too, Missy? 37455 Guide to the fairy ring?"
37455Guide, sire?
37455Happy with your betrothed?
37455Have you a House of Parliament?
37455Have you been long in this cave?
37455Have you got it?
37455Have you heard,asked Veronica faintly,"that I-- I-- I am maimed for life?
37455Have you twopence?
37455Her ladyship?
37455How about that ship?
37455How can I take it, then?
37455How can it be''and eleven days''if it''s your birthday, your Worship?
37455How could I? 37455 How could he?
37455How dare you come here and try to thwart me?
37455How did you know it?
37455How did you manage it after being in the pool?
37455How much do you want?
37455However did you get it back?
37455I say, is n''t it curious how I''ve brought you back so easily?
37455I suppose you know you''re trespassing? 37455 I wish-- oh what?
37455I''m going now,he said;"will you come?"
37455If you please,asked Dulcie shyly,"what advice?"
37455In what? 37455 Is Father Christmas at home, please?"
37455Is it still so bad?
37455Is it to be another tussle between us?
37455Is n''t it a shame, Wilfrid, to have to prepare lessons when it''s such a fine afternoon?
37455It was very kind of her, was n''t it?
37455It''s very healthy, I suppose,remarked Dulcie,"living out at sea like this?"
37455Lend me your paint- box when we''ve finished our lessons, will you, Norah dear?
37455Let go, signorina? 37455 May I tell?"
37455Mr. Santa Claus,whispered Nancy, who had been wondering all the time,"how did we get here?"
37455Not let me in? 37455 Not the winners of the races and of the sports?"
37455Now shall I see you home before I continue my rounds?
37455Now, Missy, what can I do for you?
37455Now, what are you doing here?
37455Now, what were we talking about before? 37455 Of course your young Majesty has got the key?"
37455Oh no, we do n''t want any answer,said Dulcie,"so why do it?"
37455Oh, how can I do that? 37455 Oh, it''s you, is it?"
37455Oh, may I come with you?
37455Oh, where''s he gone?
37455Oh, why ca n''t you?
37455Oh,she cried, in a hushed voice,"has he gone back there?"
37455Old? 37455 Or could that last one have become loose and got lost?"
37455Please, ought I to be going?
37455Quite warm, eh?
37455Saw him, did you?
37455Stolen property?
37455Suppose?
37455Surprising how we got here, is n''t it?
37455That mother of yours interferes rather too much, eh?
37455Then Father_ is_ twenty- one?
37455To Order or Bearer-- which do you want?
37455Truly, Daddy, how old are you?
37455Turn you out, do you mean?
37455Was he a King- fisher too?
37455Was n''t that beautiful? 37455 Well, the funny monkey-- me, you know----""_ You_, Cyril?"
37455Well, what do you think of it, Cyril?
37455Well, what was it like?
37455What are you King of?
37455What are you doing with the doll''s house? 37455 What can be wrong?"
37455What do you think about it, Spoonies?
37455What do you want here?
37455What for?
37455What have you won, your Worship?
37455What is it?
37455What labours?
37455What name?
37455What toys are_ you_ going to get?
37455What will it come in?
37455What''s his name?
37455What''s the use of being King of Fairyland if I have to be plotted against every hour of the day?
37455What''s to be done, then?
37455What''s without?
37455What''s your name?
37455What''s?
37455What? 37455 What?"
37455What_ are_ you putting on, Christobel? 37455 Whatever has happened, Robert?"
37455When did you meet him, little woman?
37455When is a door not a- jar?
37455Where am I?
37455Where did he live?
37455Where''s that?
37455Where''s your check?
37455Wherever am I?
37455Wherever are you? 37455 Which''s?"
37455Who are you, please?
37455Who are you, then?
37455Who are you?
37455Who is that charming young girl?
37455Who was she?
37455Who will it be?
37455Who''s Santa Claus? 37455 Who''s there?"
37455Who''s won the prizes?
37455Who''s your ancestor?
37455Who''s_ us_?
37455Who, dear?
37455Whose voice is that?
37455Why did you warn me not to part with it? 37455 Why do you take some toys yourself,"she asked,"and send others away in the great carts?"
37455Why is n''t it true, lass?
37455Why only now?
37455Why should I be? 37455 Why, how old are you?"
37455Why, how old can you possibly be?
37455Why?
37455Will you kindly show me the door?
37455Will you marry me?
37455Will you take a drink of water?
37455YOU CAN JUST HAND OVER THAT PHEASANT"WHO ARE YOU, THEN?
37455Yes, Mother?
37455Yes, and what happened then?
37455Yes, but who''s going to bring it?
37455You both have your catseyes on, I presume?
37455You saw the Bird- Fairy; did you hear what she said?
37455You want to order a baby, I suppose?
37455You will not be merciful?
37455You''re glad to have got rid of those ducks, I s''pose?
37455You''re not afraid of bumping up against the moon?
37455_ Now_ will you take a cup of something?
37455_ Ought_ we to go, do you think, Cyril, without asking?
37455_ Saves_ trouble?
37455(_ Will_ yer lie down, Muffins?)
37455Alec, where did you find that paper?
37455All killed by the freeze?"
37455And then I s''pose they''ll all be duffers, eh, Cyril?
37455And, Cyril, are n''t these adventures rather too-- too dangerous, do n''t you think?"
37455Are n''t you frightened?"
37455Are you not frightened?"
37455Are you willing to go on putting up with it?
37455But I''m wanted downstairs; can you spare me, Poppets?
37455But after all, I suppose you prefer an English one?
37455But how can any one in their senses imagine plaice fielding at slip?
37455But who tells him what you want?"
37455But wo n''t you love me, Christobel?"
37455But, noticing a distant Plate who was openly laughing at him, he cuttingly remarked:"Seen the plumber, lately?"
37455CHAPTER II THE WIZARD AT HOME"How do you do?"
37455Ca n''t I order myself through?"
37455Can he be going to bring the baby?
37455Can you do this sum?"
37455Can you make it out, my dears?"
37455Cedric did n''t care to trouble with it, but instinctively he picked it up, and said--"I wonder where this key belongs to?"
37455Come with me?
37455Come, that ai n''t''ardly fair, is it?
37455Could it possibly belong to Cyril?
37455Did you know that every one said_ I_ had the best chance of being Queen?"
37455Do n''t you know that my full name is Christmas Time?"
37455Do you follow me?"
37455Do you think I did n''t know you all the time?"
37455Does your ankle hurt much?
37455Eh?"
37455Fish- King?"
37455Has that nice little venture proved successful, Sire?"
37455Have I got to buy it?
37455Have you been successful in that last little financial venture, Sire?"
37455How can I do my lessons with all this going on?"
37455How can you say such unkind, unjust things?"
37455How did it come here?"
37455How was he to escape?
37455How''s Mamma?"
37455However did it get there?"
37455I ca n''t think-- let me see, what were we talking about before I went away?
37455I''ve got four shillings in my money- box; what have you got?"
37455If I give yer the bird, will y''promise not to say a word as it was Tom Grollins-- on yer davey, now?
37455Is it your aunt, Miss?"
37455Is n''t it clever?"
37455Is n''t that the state of Home Affairs?"
37455May I-- may I tell the prisoner that now all is well she is forgiven?"
37455Mollikins, what have you got in your purse?"
37455Not"comic,"Mr. Folk- lorist?
37455Now what shall we do?
37455Now what''s to be done?
37455Oh, beg pardon-- I see you''ve no watch on; pawnbroken, eh?"
37455Or maybe you know what the Financial Time is?
37455Perhaps you would kindly help me to find my way?"
37455Really?
37455Same old crew about, I suppose?"
37455See my point?"
37455See?"
37455See?"
37455Softly, softly: would n''t that be highway robbery, with threats?"
37455Somehow, I''m always in trouble-- I''ve spoilt my velvet frock washing your feet-- and you did n''t want them washed, did you?"
37455Stella turned her head on the pillow towards him again, and asked timidly--"Are you better?"
37455Tell me, what of all your treasures do you like most?"
37455That was what you wanted to find out, was n''t it?"
37455Then Norah heaved a sigh and remarked--"Wilfrid, is n''t Cinderella lovely?"
37455Then she inquired anxiously:"Do you think it was the Wizard''s trick, that losing of the stone?"
37455Then turning to Cyril he asked:"How''s that old rascal of a Wizard?
37455They''re all going in for safety, you see-- all the birds, all the beasts----""Where are the fishes?"
37455Toodleums, do you hear?
37455Was it joy for her sister?
37455Were n''t you born in Oxford Square, Father?"
37455What did you say?
37455What do you say to going up with me in my airship next time I go?
37455What does it matter telling stories and stealing, so long as you''re not found out?"
37455What was the use of its trained voice now?
37455What would poor Cyril do?
37455What''s all that to me?
37455What''s that snoring so loud?"
37455What''s the good of going on like that, Sis?"
37455What_ were_ we talking about, Cyril?"
37455When can I fetch it?"
37455When''s it coming?
37455Where have they moved to?
37455Where is it?
37455Where was your bracelet, Dulcie, when you were an oyster?"
37455Where''s mine?"
37455Wherever have you all got to?"
37455Which of us triumphed throughout?"
37455Who are you?"
37455Who can truly say that I have found Contentment here?"
37455Who cares if_ my_ eyes are red?"
37455Who ever heard of a middle- aged fairy?
37455Who''s going to bring it?"
37455Who''s making the noise now?"
37455Why did n''t he change?
37455Why not?
37455Will y''promise, Missy?"
37455Will you come?"
37455Will you graciously tell me how it feels?"
37455Would n''t you like toys?"
37455You are tired of control, eh?
37455You do not understand it, eh?"
37455You find it difficult?
37455You remain to mock me?
37455[ Illustration:"_ Who are you, then?_"]"Yes, little woman, I am Santa Claus-- himself!"

37455[ Illustration:_ The Man lifted his arm so that his face was once more hidden in gloom_]"Oh, Grandnurse, what_ have_ you done with the new baby?"
37455canst thou help me in my distress?''
37455did you now?
37455it''s you, is it?
37455laughing in his dressing- gown, eh?"
37455she exclaimed, catching her breath,"I never thought of that-- was it my last?
37455what do you say to that?
37455what''s this?"
37455|| If not, why?
5243Canst thou[ bring me to] lay hold of them?
5243Hast thou a house?
5243Hath there been feud between us aforetime?
5243How so?
5243How so?
5243Is it lawful,continued she,"in any one that he should slander me and say that I am humpbacked?"
5243O my lord,rejoined I,"what story is this that thou desirest of me and of what kind shall it be of the kinds?"
5243Sayst thou this to me,asked she,"and thou captain of men?"
5243The wife rejoiced in her saying and said to her,And when shall this be?"
5243Well?
5243What is the cause of this?
5243What is thine advertisement?
5243Where is the contract?
5243Who is thy father,asked the young merchant,"and what is his condition?"
5243Yes,answered the draper, and the other said,"Knowest thou what is come of it?"
5243[ FN#186]''And where,''asked Er Reshed,''is this Tuhfeh, who hath not her like in the world?'' 5243 ''And what hast thou in mind of device?'' 5243 ''And what is the deposit?'' 5243 ''Canst thou direct me where it is sold?'' 5243 ''Didst thou not hear the first of the speech?'' 5243 ''How so?'' 5243 ''How then deemest thou we should do?'' 5243 ''Is that thy desire?'' 5243 ''Is there a way for me to see it?'' 5243 ''Nay,''answered I;''but tell me[ first], hath there befallen thee aught?'' 5243 ''O my lord,''answered she,''what am I that thou shouldst kiss my hand? 5243 ''Out on thee, O dog of the Jinn,''replied she,''knowest thou not thy place?'' 5243 ''Was it not on such a day, by such a token, and thus and thus?'' 5243 ''What is it?'' 5243 ''What is that?'' 5243 ''What is their story?'' 5243 ''What proof hast thou of that?'' 5243 ''What was it?'' 5243 ''What was that?'' 5243 ''What was their case?'' 5243 ''Yes,''answered he, and the other continued,''And wilt thou buy that which is with me?'' 5243 ''Yes,''answered she, and he said,''Leave frowardness,[FN#175] for to whom doth it happen to be in the house of Ishac the boon- companion? 5243 ''Yes,''answered she; and he continued,''Is he not a Jew and is not his ailment indigestion?'' 5243 ''[ FN#102] The Cadi will say,''What is the meaning of thy saying,The two words are not alike"?''
5243''[ FN#174]''What is the meaning of El Hemca?''
5243''[ FN#200] Then said her father Es Shisban to her,''What is this laughing?''
5243And Dukhan answered, saying,''And who abideth in the palace?
5243And he answered,"How shall any missay of thy charms, and thou the sun of loveliness?"
5243And he said to her,''Art thou indeed Tuhfeh?''
5243And my friend said to me,''Behold, we are two, and what can they avail to do with us?''
5243And the merchant said,''When didst thou give it me?''
5243And the thief said,"Art thou the Sultan?"
5243And they said,"Is she thy wife by contract[FN#118] or without contract?"
5243As he was about to go away, the cook said to him,''O youth, doubtless thou art a stranger?''
5243But was it thou who was singing but now?''
5243But, when she and my family knew me, they rejoiced and said to me,"What aileth thee?"
5243Can any one part with his life?
5243Canst thou not hold thy peace till thou goest forth of the festival and this bride- feast[FN#222] be accomplished?
5243Doth any praise himself?
5243Hast thou not seen this in a dream?''
5243Hast thou skill in the delivering of women?''
5243He in turn kissed her hand and called down blessings on her and said,''How deemest thou?
5243How canst thou feel assured of safety, after that which thou hast done?
5243How shall I bring forth my wife?"
5243How shall it be permitted that the daughter of the Cadi of the Muslims abide with a man of the dancers and vile of origin?
5243How wilt thou make out that the right is on thy side?"
5243I looked at the place[ behind the door] and said,"What is yonder dark place that I see?"
5243I marvelled at her words and said to her,"What wouldst thou have me do?"
5243Indeed thou exceedest: knowest thou not that her sister Wekhimeh is doughtier than any of the Jinn?
5243Indeed, thou hast done me kindness, and what is the reason of this?"
5243Is not this marvellous?''
5243Is she not such an one whose marriage contract we drew up in such a place?"
5243Is[ not] this place pleasant, for all its loneliness and desolation?''
5243Know ye not that the day belongeth to you and the night to us?
5243Knowest thou not that Imlac is of the chiefs of the Jinn?
5243Learn to know thyself: hast thou no regard for thy life?''
5243Next morning, up came the Cadi, with his face like the ox- eye,[FN#104] and said,"In the name of God, where is my debtor and where is my money?"
5243Now each of them had it in mind to cheat his fellow; so El Merouzi said to Er Razi,''Wilt thou sell me that?''
5243Now he was ware of the king''s love for women; so he said to his wife,''What is this that I see with thee?''
5243On the fourth day, Er Razi said to him,''Know, O my brother, that I purpose to do somewhat''''What is it?''
5243Presently, up came El Merouzi, for the division of the money, and hearing the crying[ of the mourners], said,''What is to do?"
5243Quoth El Melik ez Zahir,''What was that?''
5243Quoth I to her,"O my lady, who art thou?"
5243Quoth I,"How so?"
5243Quoth I,"Thinkest thou to delude me?"
5243Quoth I,"What have I to do with the daughter of the Cadi Amin el Hukm?"
5243Quoth I,''I have been on a journey;''and she said,''Why didst thou wink at the Turcoman?''
5243Quoth I,''We are the first of the folk; but where are their voices?
5243Quoth Iblis,''And what befitteth it to do?''
5243Quoth Wekhimeh to her,''Who is like unto thee, O Anca?
5243Quoth he,"Are ye not ashamed?
5243Quoth he,"What deemest thou of cozenage?"
5243Quoth he,''Ye tell a marvellous story; but what hath[ Fate] done with your father?''
5243Quoth she,"Is it fair of any one to missay of my charms?"
5243Quoth she,''And what wilt thou have of me?''
5243Quoth she,''What sayest thou?''
5243Quoth she,''Why didst thou that?''
5243Quoth the cook,''What is the craft?''
5243Quoth the merchant,"Knowest thou not, O my lord, that I am of this tribe?
5243Quoth the other,''Wilt thou not make haste and awaken the Commander of the Faithful?''
5243Quoth the prefect,"Did its owner sell it to thee?"
5243Quoth the sage,''Dost thou know Galen?''
5243Quoth they,''And who was this dog that we should send to thee, on his account?
5243Quoth they,''Lewd fellow that thou art, dost thou bespeak us thus?
5243Said ye not truly, aforetime, that we should live and meet?
5243Seest thou default[ in the entertainment] or dost thou mock at us, of thy lack of breeding?"
5243Seest thou in me any default?"
5243Seest thou not that I am a stranger?
5243Shall he carry off Tuhfeh from my very palace and outrage mine honour?
5243She heard our voices and raising her eyes to us, said,"Are ye not ashamed to deal with us thus and discover our nakedness?
5243She told him their names and her own, whereby he knew that it was she whose belly he had slit and said to her,''And where are thy father and mother?''
5243So I said,"O my lord, what is this thou sayest?"
5243So he betook himself to her, and said to her,''Wilt thou be sold to Ishac ben Ibrahim el Mausili?''
5243So he repaired to the draper''s shop and sat down by him and said to him,"Thou knowest the turban- cloth I bought of thee?"
5243So he said,''O Sewab, what aileth thee?''
5243So he stood and said to her,''Who art thou and what is thy need?''
5243So she improvised and sang the following verses: Beard of the old he- goat, the one- eyed, what shall be My saying of a knave, his fashion and degree?
5243So the highwayman took the saddle- bags and offered to kill the traveller, who said,"What is this?
5243So the thief returned in haste to his fellows, who said,''What is behind thee?''
5243So they arose in haste and betaking themselves to the Khalif''s presence, said to him,''O Commander of the Faithful, what is to do?''
5243So they brought him into his presence on the speediest wise, and when Galen saw him before him, he said to him,''Knowest thou me?''
5243So they laid hands on me and carried me to the chief of the police, who said,"What hast thou to do with this fellow?"
5243Tell me, was ever yet a mortal spared of thee?
5243The Khalif was amazed at his speech and said to him,''What sayst thou?''
5243The assessor looked out of window and seeing the folk, said,"What aileth you?"
5243The deputy was angered against him and said to him,"What is the meaning of thy laughter?
5243The doorkeepers thought that he was the washer and said to him,''Hast thou made an end of the washing, so we may tell the Amir?''
5243The folk marvelled at this story and as for the prefect and El Melik ez Zahir, they said,''Wrought ever any the like of this device?''
5243The old man kissed his hand and went away; whereupon quoth Er Reshid to him,''O Ishac, who is yonder man and what is his occasion?''
5243The thief turned to me and looking a long while in my face, said,"Who took this man?"
5243Then Selim turned to Selma and said to her,''O sister mine, how deemest thou of this calamity and what counsellest thou thereanent?''
5243Then he accosted Er Razi''s wife and said to her,''How came his death about?''
5243Then he rushed in upon them, and when El Merouzi saw him, he marvelled at him and said to him,''How didst thou make thine escape?''
5243Then he turned to the woman and said to her,''And thou, what sayst thou?''
5243Then he wept and cried out and said to the prefect,"Where is that ill- omened fellow, who aboundeth in thievery and villainy?"
5243Then said Er Razi,''What is this, O fool?''
5243Then said Galen,''What prompted thee to that which thou dost?''
5243Then said I to her,"Belike thou wilt seek us another pitcher of water?"
5243Then said he to me,''O my friend, hath there befallen thee in thy life aught of calamity?''
5243Then said she,"Hath any the right to say of me that I am lophanded?
5243Then said the Amir to me,"What aileth thee that thou answerest not?"
5243Then said the magistrate,"How camest thou to bring it[ for sale] to the place whence thou stolest it?"
5243Then she went on before me and I followed her till she came to a lodging- house and said to the housekeeper,"Hast thou an empty chamber?"
5243Then will he say to thee,''Then thou art an ape- leader of the tribe of the mountebanks?''
5243Therewith the prefect turned to me and said,"Why dost thou not answer the Cadi?"
5243What art thou that thou shouldst bespeak us thus?
5243What had it irked them, had they''d ta''en farewell of him they''ve left Lone, whilst estrangement''s fires within his entrails rage amain?
5243What is her price in money and how much dost thou ask for her?, Quoth the slave- dealer,''She whom thou mentionest is called Tuhfet el Hemca.
5243What is the pleasance of the world, except it be to see My lady''s face, to drink of wine and ditties still to hear?
5243What is there in thee to love?"
5243What is this thou sayst?
5243What is to do?''
5243What manner of thing is this?''
5243What wilt thou have me do now?''
5243When I saw her make the ablution, I said in myself,"This woman doth on this wise, and shall I not do the like of her?"
5243When Iblis heard this, he gave a cry, to which the earth trembled, and said,''What is to be done?
5243When he heard her voice, he recovered from his swoon and said to her,''Who art thou?''
5243When her husband heard this, he said to her,''What is thy name and what are the names of thy father and mother?''
5243When she saw him, she knew him and said to him,''What prompteth the king unto this that he doth?''
5243When the morning morrowed, he recited the following verses: How long, O Fate, wilt thou oppress and baffle me?
5243Where an the sweetmeats?
5243Where is a man''s resource and what can he do?
5243Where is the coffee?
5243Who am I that thou shouldst say all this to me?
5243Who brought thee into this water- wheel?"
5243Who is stronger than Thou in resource?
5243Whom hast thou left in the palace?''
5243Why wilt thou slay me?''
5243Wilt thou bespeak the like of me with these words?''
5243Wilt thou have God punish me for this and that my term should come to an end and my felicity pass away?
5243Yet how can I let this knavish dog die and lose the money?
5243[ FN#170]?
5243[ FN#173] For not selling me?
5243[ FN#194] Dost thou know me?''
5243[ FN#223] Where, then, is the worth that in aught with my worth can compare And where is the rank in men''s eyes can be likened to mine?
5243[ FN#22] Then said the woman,''What is the remedy?''
5243[ FN#242] Couldst thou find none on whom to vent thy drunken humour and whom to maltreat save Tuhfeh, more by token that she is a queen?
5243[ FN#2] i.e., he dared not attempt to force her?
5243and said to them,''Why have ye broken open my chest?
5243answered I, and he said,"What is that thou hast with thee?"
5243asked Selim and she said,''Is there nothing for it but to slay him?

28096Where are we going, sir?
28096''"Oh, it is_ you_, is it?"
28096''"Well, and suppose it is?"
28096''"Well, lion, have you killed her?"
28096''"What is the good of telling me that?"
28096''"Will you not come and tell him so yourself?"
28096''Ah, lord, hast thou not received all thou didst ask?''
28096''Am I naked?
28096''Am I?''
28096''And do you know exactly the spot in the river which lies over the horse fair?''
28096''And how are you going to stop that, my fine fellow?''
28096''And how can I do that?''
28096''And how did you manage to catch him?''
28096''And how didst thou get it?''
28096''And my child?''
28096''And next?''
28096''And suppose I were to give you more pounds than Marzinne ever dreamed of?''
28096''And to whom do these wonders belong?''
28096''And was I not right to do it, seeing that your soul is in it?''
28096''And what bridge may this be?''
28096''And what did the hermit tell you?''
28096''And what dost thou here?''
28096''And what is the prize that you will choose?''
28096''And what is your business at Kerglas?''
28096''And what may that be?''
28096''And what shall be done to your brother?''
28096''And what work art_ thou_ upon?''
28096''And wherefore came she to me?''
28096''And wherefore?''
28096''And who art thou?''
28096''And who is"I"?''
28096''And why do you want to go to Kerglas?''
28096''And you?''
28096''Anything more?''
28096''Are they?''
28096''Are you asleep?''
28096''Are you asleep?''
28096''Are you at it again?''
28096''Are you in earnest?''
28096''Are you satisfied now?''
28096''Are you so lonely, then?''
28096''Are you stopping many teeth just now?''
28096''Are you the fellow,''says he,''that made these crowns?''
28096''Are you there?''
28096''Are you, indeed?''
28096''Are you_ there_?''
28096''Art thou satisfied now?''
28096''Ay, ay,''says he,''is supper ready?''
28096''But do we know anything of that craft?''
28096''But how are you going to do it?''
28096''But how can we do that?''
28096''But how could I get there?
28096''But if I kill him, how am I to get the golden bowl and the diamond lance that are hidden in the cellar without a key?''
28096''But is not that a_ mouse_ that I see in thine hand?''
28096''But tell me, where are you going?''
28096''But what are you doing in this nest?''
28096''But what are you whistling like that for?''
28096''But what sort of a tree is it, and how did it get here?''
28096''But where am I to find a young man''s clothes?''
28096''But where_ are_ you?''
28096''But who are you, my little friend?''
28096''But why are you naked?''
28096''But why do you choose that beast?''
28096''But why should you take all this interest in me?''
28096''Can I do anything for you, my friend?''
28096''Can you tell me the way to the castle of Kerglas?''
28096''Dame, did I not give you all you asked for-- nay, even more?''
28096''Daughter- in- law?
28096''Did I not tell thee that there is no luck in Sunday fishing?''
28096''Did you hear what he said?''
28096''Did you_ really_ never hear of the washerman''s donkey?''
28096''Do n''t you remember our three babes, that are still alive?''
28096''Do n''t you remember, prince, that I was your wedded wife for four years?''
28096''Do n''t you see the tiger away there by the pepper plant?
28096''Do you know how to kill the magician?''
28096''Do you know me?''
28096''Do you remember when you were digging in the field near the river, three months ago, you found a robin redbreast caught in a net?''
28096''Do you see that house yonder?''
28096''Do you want to know the way to Kerglas?''
28096''From singing in England; but wherefore dost thou ask?''
28096''Going_ where_?''
28096''Good master, what shall we do for thee?''
28096''Good- day to thee, lord; and what art thou doing?''
28096''Hast thou cleaned the byre, king''s son?''
28096''Hast thou thatched the byre, king''s son?''
28096''Have you forgotten me so soon?''
28096''Have you found him this time?''
28096''Have you got it?''
28096''Have you no friends who would welcome you into their houses?''
28096''Heavens, mother,''said he,''where are you coming from at such a whirlwind pace, and what makes you in such a dripping condition?''
28096''How am I to live without him?''
28096''How did you find me out?''
28096''How did you kill him?''
28096''How do I look in this new suit?''
28096''How is my wife?''
28096''How?''
28096''I am hungry, will you give me something to eat?''
28096''I do not,''replied he,''but is it a good place to live in?''
28096''I think, prince,''says he,''you''re getting a little tired of my castle?''
28096''If thy father had that rod, what would he do with it?''
28096''If your father had that stick, what would he do with it?''
28096''Is it indeed?''
28096''Is it likely to be a fruit or a flower?
28096''Is it possible I can have forgotten her so soon?
28096''Is it possible that you are really so foolish as to despise money?
28096''Is it thou that seekest my daughter?''
28096''Is it thou?''
28096''Is it time for us to go to meat?''
28096''Is it true what I hear of thee, that thou canst burnish swords?''
28096''Is she finished already?''
28096''Is that what you want?''
28096''Is thy daughter mine now?''
28096''Is_ that_ it?''
28096''It does seem odd, does n''t it?''
28096''It is all very fine to possess a cow,''said Matte, as he cleaned the fish;''but what are we going to feed her on?''
28096''It was lucky indeed,''answered the queen;''but tell me, where is thy soul, that I may take care of it?''
28096''Know''st thou, good man, that we are far too cramped on this wretched rock, and where am I to find room for so many cows?''
28096''Larks?''
28096''Marry you?''
28096''My lord, has anything befallen thee?''
28096''No, she would certainly be frightened,''said Walter,''and how would it do for a girl to go wolf- hunting?
28096''Nothing unpleasant, I hope, for you sound rather grave?''
28096''O king, what has brought you here to- day?''
28096''Oh, am I not?''
28096''Oh, am I?''
28096''Oh, then no one has mentioned a trade to you?''
28096''Oh, you must n''t lose time in grumbling,''rejoined the donkey gaily,''and do n''t you see that the wizard is asleep?''
28096''Oh,''says she to him,''would you put your hand out at the window and cut me off a sprig or two of honeysuckle?
28096''Our big house, and the flower garden, and the men and the maids, and the thirty beautiful cows, and the steamer, and everything else?''
28096''Perhaps we should sail back to Polynesia now?''
28096''Property, certainly,''answered the son,''And you, my daughter?''
28096''Seest thou yonder hill?
28096''Shall I go back and say that I struck one wolf and it escaped?''
28096''Shall it be burnished white or blue?''
28096''Shall we land here?''
28096''Shall we land here?''
28096''Shall we land here?''
28096''Shall we land here?''
28096''Shall we land here?''
28096''So much for the gold; and the jewels?''
28096''That shall never be,''said Owen;''but what form hath this monster?''
28096''That_ is_ unlucky; and did n''t you tell me that the dressmaker was coming in to- morrow?''
28096''The silver you find will pay for all that, and what about the gold?''
28096''Then why are you here?''
28096''Then why do you cry?''
28096''Thou art tired, king''s son?''
28096''Thus, Kai, I stood listening to the birds, when lo, a murmuring voice approached me, saying:''"O knight, what has brought thee hither?
28096''To Kerglas?
28096''Walter is not a coward is he?''
28096''We seek Olwen the maiden for this youth,''answered Kai;''does she ever come hither so that she may be seen?''
28096''Well, daughter, will you marry the fellow that made these crowns?''
28096''Well, have you got any news to tell me?''
28096''Well, my dear cousin,''said she,''and how have you fared since last Christmas Eve, when we had a conversation together?''
28096''Well, now?''
28096''Well, suppose you get through safely?''
28096''Well, what harm?''
28096''Well, where is the gold from the sun and the silver from the moon that you promised me?''
28096''Well,''he said,''where has Little Lasse been so long?''
28096''Well,''says he,''what trouble is on you now?''
28096''What aileth thee, mistress?''
28096''What aileth thee, my son?''
28096''What am I doing?
28096''What are you doing now, you rascal?''
28096''What are you doing there?''
28096''What are you thinking of?''
28096''What can that be?''
28096''What charge have you against her?''
28096''What craft shall we follow?''
28096''What craft wilt thou follow?''
28096''What did I tell you?
28096''What do you mean about a washerman''s donkey?
28096''What do you mean?''
28096''What do you mean?''
28096''What do you mean?''
28096''What does fortune matter when one is young and strong?''
28096''What does fortune matter?''
28096''What dost thou here?''
28096''What else should one beg of the sea- king but fish?
28096''What harm is there in that, lady?''
28096''What has happened?''
28096''What hast thou there?''
28096''What house?''
28096''What if I were to try?''
28096''What is a Groac''h?''
28096''What is his name?''
28096''What is it?
28096''What is it?''
28096''What is it?''
28096''What is that shining so brightly in the waves?''
28096''What is that?
28096''What is the matter with me?''
28096''What is the matter with you?''
28096''What is the matter, Jégu?
28096''What is the matter, O son of a king?''
28096''What is the matter, my dove?''
28096''What is the matter?''
28096''What is the matter?''
28096''What is the matter?''
28096''What is the matter?''
28096''What is the matter?''
28096''What is the prize that you will choose?''
28096''What is the use of being clever when it is beauty that men want?
28096''What is the use of talking,''he replied roughly,''when a good- for- nothing creature like that can hear all we say?''
28096''What is the use of that?''
28096''What is your errand here?''
28096''What kind of a thief may it be which thou couldst put in thy glove?''
28096''What manner of thief is that?''
28096''What manner of thief, lord?''
28096''What news from the court?''
28096''What news is there of my sister?''
28096''What now?''
28096''What people have you converted lately?''
28096''What piece of luck?''
28096''What reward dost thou ask?''
28096''What reward wilt thou give me if I put it back in the bundle?''
28096''What spell didst thou lay upon Pryderi and Rhiannon?''
28096''What will you drink, Maurice?''
28096''What will you give me for my horse?''
28096''What work art thou upon?''
28096''What would you do with a cow?''
28096''What''s that you''re humming?''
28096''What''s the name of this little stone in the middle of the ocean?''
28096''What,''he gasped--''what is this dreadful thing?
28096''What_ can_ have become of her?''
28096''What_ do_ you mean?''
28096''What_ is_ it?''
28096''When will you marry me?''
28096''Whence came this ring?''
28096''Whence comes this gust of wind?''
28096''Whence comest thou, O man?''
28096''Where are thy friend and thy dogs?''
28096''Where are you?''
28096''Where is he that seeks my daughter?
28096''Where is the earl?''
28096''Where is the water?''
28096''Where is the wolf?''
28096''Whither have they gone, and my host also?''
28096''Who can pump out the sea?''
28096''Who has cooked this feast?''
28096''Who is it that thus laments in this house of stone?''
28096''Who is it whispering in the golden pot, Groac''h?''
28096''Who is she?''
28096''Who is there?''
28096''Whose is this castle, O herdsman?''
28096''Why are you so silent?''
28096''Why are you so silent?''
28096''Why did Walter scream so terribly?''
28096''Why did you refuse to sell my wife a pumpkin yesterday when she wanted one?''
28096''Why did you throw stones at me?''
28096''Why do you want the ring and casket so much?
28096''Why hast thou kept far from me in my grief, Luned?''
28096''Why have they shut you up, poor boy?''
28096''Why should we wish to?
28096''Why was she crying?''
28096''Why, what have you done to the Bonnach stone?''
28096''Why, where are my clothes?''
28096''Why?''
28096''Will she come if she is bidden?''
28096''Will silver or gold bring thy freedom, or only battle and fighting?''
28096''Will you cook the wedding feast in place of me?''
28096''Will you dare to eat it?''
28096''Will you give me your gun, and your dog, and your falcon?''
28096''Will you indeed?''
28096''Wilt thou we d me, farmer''s daughter?''
28096''Wilt thou we d me, thou farmer''s daughter?''
28096''Wo n''t you speak to me to- day?''
28096''Would it not be well,''said Owen,''to go and discover the place?''
28096''Would you not like to stay here always?''
28096''Wouldst thou rather I should be a hoodie by day and a man by night, or a man by day and a hoodie by night?''
28096''You have been there without being killed by the magician?''
28096''You have killed our father, do you see?
28096''You know my brother, then?''
28096''You speak truth,''they answered,''nor you either?''
28096''You would like to sit down and rest, granny?''
28096''You?''
28096''You?''
28096''Your father?
28096( Why, is n''t your heart here?)
28096( as if they should ask a painter''Are you painting anything now?''
28096*****''Didst thou get the sword?''
28096*****''Does your bride please you?''
28096*****''Is there a porter?''
28096*****''So you think I am a washerman''s donkey?''
28096*****''Were n''t they_ silly_?''
28096About midnight the fisherman sat up, and said to his wife:''Dost thou hear anything?''
28096After a while, he called a third time,''Are you asleep?''
28096And if she asks,"Wert thou at the battle of the birds?"
28096And what was the prince doing?
28096And what were those grey forms trotting away in the distance?
28096And who are you, and what do you here?''
28096And who is there that can teach him?''
28096And you-- what are you doing up in this tree?''
28096Are they really pearls?''
28096Are you any good with hammer and tongs?
28096Are you not ashamed, girl, to behave so?''
28096At last Lisa said:''Are you awake, Aina?''
28096Bellah felt as if fingers were tightening round her throat, but she managed to cry:''Is this you, my Houarn?
28096Besides that, they had bread, butter, fish, a beer cask, and a buttermilk jar; what more did they require?
28096But choose: will you have my blessing or my property?''
28096But if they do not know me, or do not know me well, they generally ask''Are you writing anything now?''
28096But tell us now, Whene''er you roam, Do you not find the best is home Of all the lands you''ve looked upon, Lasse, Little Lasse?
28096But the following day he came back again, and said to the second girl:''Wilt thou we d me, farmer''s daughter?''
28096But what has happened?
28096But will you play a game to- day?''
28096Choosing the best- looking horse amongst them he went up to it and said:''Is this horse for sale?
28096Could any one so rich and so beautiful really wish to be his wife?
28096Could her husband be among them?
28096Could it be that they were ashamed of themselves?
28096Could that really be his wife-- that beautiful, beautiful creature?
28096Do ladies put these questions to the men-- lawyers, dentists, clergymen, and so forth-- who happen to sit next them at dinner parties?
28096Do n''t you know that I am addressed as Madam?''
28096Do you know why she has lost it?
28096Do you take me for a washerman''s donkey?''
28096Do you think it would do any good to beat her a little?''
28096Have you a large quantity with you?''
28096Have you slept well and eaten well and drunk well?''
28096He came to Little Lasse and said,''Would you like to sail round the world?''
28096He had a wife called Maie; could you find a better name for her?
28096He lived by the shore of the big sea; where else could he live?
28096He opened the lid, and three tiny little birds flew out, and flapping their wings they asked,''Good master, is there anything we can do for thee?''
28096His brother and sister ran to meet him, and called out from the distance,''Where have you been so long, Lasse?
28096How am I to know it and to catch it?
28096How could we be so ungrateful as to disobey you, when you are so kind?''
28096If that were to be, what should I do?''
28096If the donkey had had a heart would she be here now?
28096Is anyone coming now?''
28096Is it possible you do n''t know that when we leave home we always hang up our hearts on trees, to prevent their being troublesome?
28096Is it raining?''
28096Is n''t it queer?''
28096Is this you?''
28096Look at my wings also-- are they not withered stumps?
28096Maie looked around her amazed, and said,''Where is our two- story house?''
28096Marriage?''
28096May I inquire what the business is?"
28096Now what fruit without much scent is in season just now?
28096Now_ would_ she?"
28096On hearing these words the brother stopped and asked,''Where did he find such a woman?''
28096One nymph who, like the rest, could not keep off the horrid topic of my occupation, said''You never write anything but fairy books, do you?''
28096Perhaps they would think that Walter is a coward?''
28096Quickly regaining his feet Moti began to swing his plant round his head and to shout:''Where are your men?
28096Says she,''Did you drink any sleepy posset either of these evenings before you went to bed?''
28096Shall_ I_ go and bring you your dinner?"
28096She stopped, and added carelessly after a pause,''Do n''t you ever wonder what is in that soup- tureen?''
28096So, as well became him, for he was always a decent man, says he,''Did you drink, piper?''
28096Sometimes they are more definite and inquire''What are you writing now?''
28096Such a thing must never be; what would people say?
28096Suddenly a hand was laid on his shoulder, and a voice said to him:''Will you sell me your horse, son of the fisherman?''
28096Suppose it was useless; suppose the mare, and not the colt, ate the crumbs?
28096Tell me; are you very unhappy?''
28096The king could hardly speak from alarm, but at last he said:''How am I to distinguish this awful thing when I see it?''
28096The witch''s daughter looked on with greedy eyes, and, says she,''What would you be satisfied to take for that scissors?''
28096Then Glewlwyd went into the hall, and Arthur said to him:''Hast thou news from the gate?''
28096Then he said:''Now, lady, I have finished, and am refreshed, therefore tell me, I pray you, who you are, and whence you come?
28096Was that the wolf which Walter was to take by the neck and shake and throw down on its back, no matter how much it struggled?
28096Was this_ really_ the quiet girl who had been so anxious to learn all he could teach her, or was it somebody else?
28096Well, if she had had a heart would she have come back a second time?
28096Well, prince and princess flew into one another''s arms, and says the little man, says he,''Why are n''t you eating?''
28096Well, well, was that the wolf?
28096Were they-- could they be--_wolves_?
28096What could Little Lasse do now?
28096What did Walter do now?
28096What do you mean?"
28096What do you mean?''
28096What in the world is the matter with you?
28096What is the matter?
28096What news have you got?"
28096What should he do?
28096What was it he saw there?
28096What would two do with one ram?
28096What''s to be done?''
28096When wilt thou that I present to thee the knight who has returned with me?''
28096Whence dost thou come?''
28096Where''s your king?
28096While he was waiting for the meat to cook he heard a sound of deep sighing close to him, and he said:''Who art thou?''
28096Who has told you of them?''
28096Who knew how many wolves there might be hidden there?
28096Who would give three straws for such a miserable little thing?
28096Who would have believed a woman past ninety could walk with such speed?
28096Why did they lie to me?
28096Why had n''t you patience for five years?
28096Why, is n''t your heart here?''
28096Will you be kind enough to teach him?''
28096Will you stay and do it?''
28096Would the lady be there, as the old man had told him?
28096Yes, and what more is there to tell about a raspberry worm?
28096Yes, who knows?
28096You notice that soup- tureen in the middle of the table?
28096[ Illustration: Four long years I was married to thee Three sweet babes I bore to thee Brown Bear of Norway-- won''t you turn to me?]
28096[ Illustration: How the King''s Son saved the Raven from the Snake by H. J. Ford 1910]''Is there a raven hereabouts?''
28096_ Which_ was the youngest?
28096and why did you leave my house where you were safe?''
28096answer that thou wert, and if she asks,"Didst thou see my likeness?"
28096are you_ really_ going to Kerglas?''
28096asked they,''and whose is that castle?''
28096called the wizard,''do you mean to hollow out for yourself a bed in that huge column?''
28096cried Matte,''have your worships really seen all that?''
28096cried he;''are you making yourself miserable because of_ that_?
28096do you see?''
28096have n''t you got a cow?''
28096may I try it?''
28096or a lawyer''Have you any cases at present?'').
28096repeated the dwarf,''and who, then, are you?''
28096said Walter,''do you think that there were many?''
28096said he gently, and, as she only sobbed louder, he continued:''Are you a woman, or a spirit of the woods?''
28096said his conscience,''Do you not remember that a lie is one of the worst sins, both in the sight of God and man?
28096she asked,''when it has no hand to feel with?''
28096she said,''and how am I to deliver you?''
38005Am I a queen?
38005Am I happy? 38005 And fly?
38005And now will you just see me dance?
38005And the Bacchantes, then?
38005And where are the luminous streaks of the far- off land?
38005And why did you want to see me quite near, little princess with the wings?
38005And why, dear father,whispered Psyche, secretly,"has Emeralda a heart of ruby?..."
38005And would Emeralda permit me to sue for her love and her hand?
38005And you, wise Astra, Royal Highness of the Star, will you, like Emeralda, allow me to sue for your hand and heart?
38005Are they always so merry?
38005Are we going thither?
38005Are you collecting my tears? 38005 Are you in trouble?
38005Are you not afraid?
38005Are you wounded?
38005As a penitent?
38005Behind us, under us...."Why did you not descend sooner?
38005Behind us...."But I do not see them.... Have we passed them without my seeing them? 38005 But Psyche, do you know what it is?"
38005But first tell me: why are you here and sleeping by the Sphinx?
38005But if they go to dust, of what value are they?
38005But tell me, Psyche, what conditions do you impose upon me?
38005But what does he do-- what is he? 38005 But what then does the Power want?
38005But who says so, my child?
38005But why then have I wings?
38005Can you really speak?
38005Chimera, why is the air so full of joy here...? 38005 Do you know what it is that prevents you from being happy, and why you are not like all of us?
38005Do you not see it?
38005Do you remain there, Chimera? 38005 Do you see nothing?"
38005Do you understand me, Emeralda? 38005 Do you want to rest, Psyche?"
38005Does not Psyche feel happy? 38005 Father, dear,"asked Psyche once;"why have I wings, and can not fly?"
38005God...."Who is God? 38005 Have we not yet reached the ground of light?"
38005How far and how wide is the widest sphere?
38005I do n''t quite know, my child...."Why have I wings, and Astra a living star upon her head, and Emeralda eyes of jewels?
38005I see wood and meadow, towns and mountains.... Is the world, then, the same everywhere? 38005 I was, long ago....""Your eyes glow: have you a fever?"
38005Immeasurably far, indescribably wide...."And what stretches away round the widest sphere?
38005Is little Psyche ill?
38005Later...."When is that?
38005Little Psyche,said her old father,"will you now promise me something?"
38005Look below: can you see nothing...?
38005Monsters of the sea of pain, where shall I find the Jewel for Emeralda?
38005No, Psyche, I am not a king, and that Land...."--And that Land...?
38005No...."Chimera, is that the land of happiness? 38005 No....""Do you hear nothing?"
38005No...."Then it is gone...."Whither?
38005No...."Why not?
38005Not now...."When, then?
38005Princess, what is it?
38005Psyche,said he, gently,"will the Sphinx give me an answer to my question this morning?"
38005Should she go back?
38005So soon? 38005 Splendid, beautiful horse,"said Psyche,"who are you?"
38005Tell me, Psyche, what is the matter?
38005The night is dark, Astra: there are few stars in the sky, and the torches are not yet lit...."No? 38005 Then why do n''t you remain in the wood, devil, she- devil?"
38005There is another kingdom...."What kingdom?
38005What are you going to do? 38005 What do you want, little Psyche?"
38005What does my Psyche think about? 38005 What is it, darling?"
38005What is it, little Psyche?
38005What is it, little Psyche?
38005What is nothingness?
38005What is power?
38005What is that, child? 38005 What is that?"
38005What is your name?
38005What is your own object, little Psyche? 38005 What problem, Prince Eros?"
38005What was impossible? 38005 What, Psyche?"
38005What, Psyche?
38005What, little Psyche?
38005What...? 38005 Where am I?"
38005Where are you going?
38005Where are you going?
38005Where do you come from? 38005 Where do you come from?"
38005Where do you wish to go?
38005Where is she? 38005 Where is she?"
38005Where is the land of silver light, the land of the people of light? 38005 Where?"
38005Where?
38005Whither are you going?
38005Who am I? 38005 Who are you?"
38005Who are you?
38005Who are you?
38005Who comes there?
38005Who compels you, O powerful horse, quick as lightning?...
38005Who could love him, and not weep over him?
38005Who could see the Chimera and not love him more than me?
38005Who lays the task upon you, witch, devil?
38005Who speaks there?
38005Who will tell me where Psyche is?
38005Why do you fly from one end to the other, O splendid Chimera? 38005 Why have you called me, little princess?"
38005Will he come again? 38005 Will you always stay with me, little Psyche?
38005Will you hold fast to my neck?
38005Will your Majesty not permit me to ask for the hand and heart of your third daughter, the princess?
38005Wo n''t you just see them?
38005Yes, will you go thither?
38005Am I dead, or do I live?
38005Am I dead...?
38005And so she only stammered:"None, prince....""Could you love me?"
38005And still much more, O Psyche, I ask the Sphinx, that I will not tell you now, because....""Because...?"
38005And what are nymphs?
38005And what is going on around me?
38005And what is the viol that is playing?
38005And where are you taking me to, Chimera?
38005Are the torches not yet lit?
38005Are these the fore- spheres of the farthest sphere...?
38005Are those groves of light, cities of light, in a land of light?
38005Are those spheres?
38005Are you going to ascend higher, higher still?
38005Are you not thirsty?
38005Are you not tired, and never dizzy and cold?
38005Are you seeking here for the Jewel, or the Glass that magnifies?"
38005But if she loves you, then I will give her up to you, for then she will be happy....""Tell me, Psyche, will you be my wife?"
38005But may I suffer it with you?
38005But no lands of light.... And yet there, in the distance, very far away-- what is that, Chimera?
38005But tell me, who am I now, and what am I?
38005But we are always very merry and sociable together; but you must come once....""Are you going?"
38005But why are you now spreading out your wings?"
38005But why this restless flying from East to West, from West to East?"
38005But yet... there, behind the horizon, behind the sand of the desert, is a dazzling scene.... Are those silver grottos on a sea of light?
38005But your wings I do not feel.... Have you none now?
38005But... no.... Is that trouble?
38005CHAPTER VIII"Psyche, where do you wish to go?"
38005Can grief... be happiness in the Present?"
38005Can you not go faster?
38005Chimera, are you king there?"
38005Chimera, is that the rainbow?"
38005Chimera, what are those circles all round us, the splendour of which makes me giddy?
38005Chimera, where are you going so high?
38005Could not everything be possible?
38005Did she hear aright?
38005Do I not shine like a light?
38005Do n''t you know anything about it?"
38005Do they get wider and wider?
38005Do we remain there together?"
38005Do you dare, Psyche?"
38005Do you never, never rest?
38005Do you see anything?"
38005Do you see those distant regions yonder, of silver and opal?
38005Do you still see its faint splendour between my grey hair?
38005Does not Psyche feel happy?"
38005Does she long for the Chimera?"
38005Does the light there wave like water?
38005Eros, do I love you out of gratitude and respect, my husband and my king...?"
38005Eros, do you love me?
38005For what are flowers, men, the stars?
38005Had he not followed the track of her tears?
38005Have they been cut off?
38005Have you found the Mystery of the Godhead, and,"--Do you rule with me the Universe and God?"
38005He had forsaken her.... Why...?
38005He smiled, and she said:"Why do you come here in the desert?
38005Here in the desert?"
38005How dare you?
38005How long did we travel...?
38005How long have I slept?
38005I am old, but you-- are you still young?
38005I have trusted, hoped, given my soul in happiness.... Is happiness then punished?
38005I will go down into Hell; I will seek.... Shall I find?
38005Is it dark about me?
38005Is it good to be what we have to be?
38005Is it not good to hope, to trust, and to love?
38005Is it not true?"
38005Is that Paradise?"
38005Is that a black star?"
38005Is that happiness?
38005Is that the kingdom of happiness?
38005Is that the land of happiness, and are you the king?"
38005Is that the rainbow?
38005Is that the way through circles to... the....?
38005Is that water, or air, or light?
38005Is the night dark?
38005Is the night too dark?
38005Is there then sadness in my kingdom?
38005Is this the happiness of the Present?
38005May I not leave her any more, alone by the brook?"
38005My God, what have I done?
38005Naked she stood before Emeralda, and said:"Emeralda, do n''t you recognise me?
38005O Chimera, where are you taking me to?
38005O father, father, why have you left me?
38005Oh, why are you going so soon, splendid Chimera?"
38005On the purple strand I see a town of light, palaces of light, gates of light.... Do beings of light dwell there...?
38005Or have I seen him for the first and last time?"
38005Or is it not the horizon?
38005Ought I then to have mistrusted and hated?
38005Poor sister, are you blind?
38005Psyche, dear Psyche, listen: shall I tell you something....?
38005Put me down somewhere.... Can you not rest with me in a beautiful valley, amongst flowers, near a brook?
38005She saw someone coming; along every winding of the brook, she saw someone approaching.... Who was it coming there?
38005Spider, were it not more human to love, to live, and even to sin, than to weave web upon web?
38005Surely you will rest here with me in the soft violet night and amongst the blue flowers?
38005Tell me why?
38005Tell me, Chimera, do people of light live there?
38005Tell me, do you forgive me for that?"
38005Tell me, have you any wish that I can satisfy?
38005Tell me, what do you see?"
38005Tell me, would n''t you like to see them?"
38005Tell me, ye wise men of the land-- tell me, Astra, my sister, does the Jewel exist?"
38005That, that was her great grief-- that, that made her think, what were they for, those wings on her shoulders?
38005The nymphs find your wings pretty, but what do you want with things that are pretty, yet of no use whatever?
38005The....""The...?"
38005Then after weeks... after months, perhaps, you will see me again in the air....""You will forsake me?
38005Then he said to her, gently:"Your Highness is called Psyche?
38005Then she turned to a saleswoman and asked:"What is the feast for?"
38005Was she dreaming?
38005Was the answer not always more distinct and unchangeable?
38005We are going to the South, and Prince Bacchus is seeking for you.... What are you doing here, and why are you crouching down and weeping?
38005What are Bacchantes?
38005What are you for?"
38005What are you yourself for?
38005What are you?
38005What are you?"
38005What could Emeralda do to her to make her afraid?
38005What did the shepherds know of Emeralda?
38005What do I ask?
38005What do you know of soul and life and power?
38005What do you mean?
38005What do you say, Chimera?"
38005What do you see?
38005What has happened?
38005What have I done?
38005What is a Satyr?
38005What is that I see on the horizon?
38005What is that beautiful country?
38005What is their life there in the wood?
38005What is your object?
38005What land is that?
38005What round things are falling over my fingers?"
38005What strange element is this?
38005When shall I see him again, and when shall I soar again...?
38005Whence?
38005Where are the limits?"
38005Where are the opal islands?"
38005Where is it gone?"
38005Where is she?"
38005Whither shall I flee?
38005Whither?
38005Whither?
38005Whither?
38005Whither??
38005Whither??
38005Who are going up with us-- ethereal faces, ethereal forms?
38005Who is the Sphinx?
38005Who is there to love me now?
38005Who knows?"
38005Why did she not tell it?
38005Why do you punish me so?
38005Why is everything so dazzlingly bright about us?
38005Why was she not afraid?
38005Will the Future not prove to be a delusion...?"
38005Will you hear them?
38005Will you not graze and lie in a meadow?
38005Will your Majesty permit me to kneel and pay my homage to you as an obedient vassal?"
38005With me you will refresh yourself with dates and water?
38005Would the castle, the Babel of pinnacles, the town of towers remain ever inaccessibly high in the clouds?
38005You are safe here, are you not?
38005You have come to bring me jewels?"
38005You have come to bring me jewels?"
38005You will let me sleep in the shadow of your wings, and watch over me during the dreadful night?"
38005a Satyr?
38005are you blind?"
38005had he not found her in the arms of the Sphinx?"
38005had she not trod a paradise, the sweet Present, the adorable garden of a moment, so little and so short in duration?
38005said Psyche,"born in the moss, withering when you are plucked, what do you know of gods and mortals?
38005said he,"what are you doing here, so far away from all of us?
38005she whispered, trembling,"why have you gone?
38005where is Psyche?"
38005who to protect me now in the world?
38005wo n''t you just see me dance again?"
34705Are ye truants and rest, or are ye in quest?
34705Art thou warm, maiden? 34705 Bread and salt, good youth, why dost thou eat in the courtyard?"
34705But where is my faithful servant Ivan?
34705Can that which I see be fire?
34705Canst thou not listen to me?
34705Did not I tell thee, my son, to go and chop thine own wood? 34705 Do you want work, young man?"
34705Does any one know where in all the world dwells the Tsar Afron, and by what way one can get to his kingdom from here?
34705Good,said the uncle to the nephew;"but I am sure thou didst not work this out with thine own wits, eh?
34705Good- day, uncle; at what are you aiming? 34705 Good- day, uncle; what are you hopping on one leg for?"
34705Good- day, uncle; what are you looking for?
34705Good- day, uncle; whither are you carrying that straw?
34705Good- day, uncle; whither are you going?
34705Good- day, uncle; why are you dragging about wood in the forest?
34705Hast thou spoken about me to Tsar Serpent?
34705Hi, Shmat- Razum, can we not build us a little castle here?
34705How and by what road can my son- in- law go?
34705How is it that it is always one and the same voice?
34705How is that to be managed?
34705How will a simple muzhik be able to form an army?
34705However did that pike get there? 34705 I have no money,"said the peasant.--"But did n''t I tell thee thou canst always raise it, honey?
34705I say, master, wouldst thou like me to teach thee my favourite song? 34705 I thank thee, thou good youth and faithful servant, for thy services,"said the Tsarevich''s sister to Ivan,"but say now, how shall I reward thee?"
34705Is it not time for us to hasten home?
34705Or hast thou heard unpleasant words from thy father the Tsar?
34705Shmat- Razum, art thou there?
34705Tsar- Maiden, and ye, lovely damsels,said the Tsarevich Ivan,"wherefore do ye fear me?
34705Well, gossip fox,said he,"you have plainly had your fill, or what has come over you to make you roll about in the grass so merrily?"
34705What are you thinking of?
34705What art thou doing?
34705What art thou going to wear?
34705What do ye want for your labours, my friends?
34705What do you want? 34705 What dost thou require of me?"
34705What hast thou bought, my son?
34705What hast thou to say, old woman?
34705What is it?
34705What is the price of thy mares?
34705What is this?
34705What is thy pleasure, and what is thy command?
34705What is thy pleasure, and what is thy desire?
34705What is thy pleasure, and what thy command?
34705What marvel is this?
34705What shall I do now?
34705What sort of a horse is the fellow riding on?
34705What strong and stalwart heroes are these?
34705What task has he given thee?
34705What treasure?
34705What''s come to thee?
34705What''s the matter?
34705What''s to be done now?
34705Whence and wherefore hast thou come hither, good man?
34705Where am I?
34705Where hast thou been, and why art thou come so late?
34705Where shall I hide thee from the Monster of the Forest?
34705Which among you is the biggest?
34705Whither art thou going?
34705Whither would you go, fool?
34705Who is that singing? 34705 Who then is this presumptuous stranger who builds on my land without my leave?"
34705Why art thou so racking thy brains again, good youth?
34705Why did I answer the old man so rudely? 34705 Why dost thou keep standing there?"
34705Why should I not be thinking? 34705 Why should I remain a bachelor any longer?"
34705Why, what is this?
34705Why, what marvel is this?
34705Why, what''s this?
34705Will you take hire from me?
34705Wo n''t you take me with you?
34705Would it please your Majesty to look at the carpet I have bought to- day?
34705You''re a pretty fellow,said the man with the bundle of wood;"why, you''ve clean forgotten me, have n''t you?"
34705--"''Tis I, the old leafless oak, and I ask thee whither art thou going, and is thy journey far?"
34705--"A pike?"
34705--"And can you then make such a ship?"
34705--"And dost thou think that I can not prove it against thee?
34705--"And how dost thou come to know of this monster?"
34705--"And on what shall we go, then?"
34705--"And thou art able to help the Tsarevich?"
34705--"And what besides?"
34705--"And what have you done with them?"
34705--"And what then is the price?"
34705--"And what then was it that you found?"
34705--"And what wage do you require?"
34705--"And where is that somewhere?"
34705--"And wherefore, pray, dear father Tsar?"
34705--"And wherefore, pray?
34705--"And who then is thy son, dear old man?"
34705--"And why, pray?"
34705--"Art thou in thy senses, old woman?"
34705--"Art thou warm, maiden?"
34705--"But how about me?"
34705--"But how can I share it then?"
34705--"But how canst thou help?"
34705--"But is it a wise thing to make thy way thither?
34705--"But then I dreamed that I came to a river, and the ferryman on the ferry- boat said to me:''Shall I ferry here long''?"
34705--"But what about me?"--"You?
34705--"But what marvels have ye then?"
34705--"But wo n''t that be too much?"
34705--"Do ye know how one can manage to go I know not whither, and fetch I know not what?"
34705--"Hail to thee, Tsarevich Ivan; hast come to rest, or art thou in quest?"
34705--"Have I not cause to be sad?
34705--"Have I not cause to grieve?
34705--"How could I help guessing it?"
34705--"How dost thou know what I am?
34705--"How much dost thou want for it?"
34705--"How shalt thou reward me?"
34705--"How so?"
34705--"How, thou sage damsel?
34705--"I am going to beat Verlioka; dost know him?"
34705--"I asked thee whether thy journey was far?"
34705--"I thank thee, good man, for thy interpretation; and now wilt thou not tell me who can get me this horse?"
34705--"Is there little straw in the village then?"
34705--"Lying, dost thou call it?
34705--"Not know?
34705--"Rather dear, eh?"
34705--"Surely thou hast dreamt it in thy dreams?"
34705--"Then canst thou show me his dwelling?"
34705--"Then for what dost thou do it?"
34705--"Then what dost thou say to 10,000 rubles?"
34705--"Then whence shall I get me an extraordinary horse?"
34705--"Then why didst thou not bring it hither?"
34705--"There, honoured sirs,"said the old man,"how can you believe her if she goes on talking such rubbish?"
34705--"Well, really,"thought Martin,"why should I go on dragging this load about on my shoulders?
34705--"What are you doing?"
34705--"What are you dreaming about?
34705--"What are you thinking of?
34705--"What dost thou mean?
34705--"What is it, what is it, hubby darling?
34705--"What is your pleasure?"
34705--"What sort is it then?"
34705--"What''s the good, when thou wilt only blab it all about?"
34705--"What''s the matter, dear little foxy?"
34705--"What''s to be done then, and what will become of me?"
34705--"Whence do you come?"
34705--"Where dost thou dwell, and whither dost thou wander?"
34705--"Where dost thou dwell, and whither dost thou wander?"
34705--"Where have you left them?"
34705--"Where is he buried that he does not come himself?"
34705--"Where is it?"
34705--"Where was such a thing ever seen, where was such a thing ever heard of, to take a wife away from her living husband?
34705--"Wherefore so vexed at it, dear father?"
34705--"Whither art thou striding away like that?"
34705--"Who art thou?"
34705--"Why be afraid before the time?
34705--"Why didst thou not tell it me long ago?
34705--"Why not?
34705--"Why should I make them when they are ready made?
34705--"Why should I not be sad?
34705--"Why should I not serve you?
34705--"Why should I not?
34705--"Why should I not?"
34705--"Why should we not beat him, when he has spoiled a whole quarter of beef?"
34705--"Why, how''s that?
34705--"Why, what art thou thinking about, little hubby?
34705--"Why, what has he done?"
34705--"Wilt thou go on before and show me the way?
34705--"Won''t you sit with us, then?"
34705--Vasily looked around him on all sides and answered:"Who called me?
34705A lovely damsel passed by that way, and she said to him:"Of what art thou thinking, good youth?"
34705After that the Tsar said to the orphan:"Didst thou hit upon these answers thyself, or did some one else tell thee?"
34705Again the brothers returned and asked,"What''s the matter, brotherkin?
34705And Moroz- ruby- nose came and looked at his guest, and began to ask her,"Art thou warm, maiden?"
34705And again Ivan the merchant''s son met him and consoled him with a friendly smile:"Come, Tsarevich, wherefore grieve?
34705And at midnight the gravestone was torn from the tomb, and the old man came out and asked:"Who''s there?"
34705And his wife asked him:"Why art thou so sorrowful, darling; has any misfortune befallen thee?"
34705And if they ask thee what is the sweetest thing in the world, say:''Why, what sweeter thing can a man have than the wife of his bosom?''"
34705And she began flattering her godson, and said to him:"My dear little dovey godson, thou art tired to- day, wilt thou not stop and have a bath?
34705And the Forest Monster said,"Where then is thy guest who climbed over the wall?"
34705And the Giant said to the Tsarevich Ivan:"Whither art thou going, oh worm?"
34705And the Prince heard the lament, called the witch to him, and said:"Wife, hast thou heard this thing, this thing unheard of?"
34705And the Tsarevich Ivan answered him:"What is that to thee?
34705And the Tsarevich asked one of the people he met:"What''s the meaning of all this commotion in the city?"
34705And the elder brothers began to ask the younger one:"Hast thou got the living- water for our father?"
34705And the fox turned up from somewhither and said to him:"Whither away, little Kuz''ma?"
34705And the horse spoke to him with a man''s voice:"Wherefore dost thou beat me, Tsarevich Ivan?
34705And the old men said to Vasily:"Dost thou not see, Vasily, how the Lord has blessed thee?"
34705And where didst thou pick up such a beauty?
34705Art thou warm, beauty?
34705Art thou warm, beauty?"
34705Art thou warm, sweet clover?"
34705As soon as Verlioka saw her in the field, he cried:"What dost thou want here, old hag?
34705Bruin straightway began to beg the fox to let him go:"Little fox, wo n''t you lead me also to the Tsar''s banquet?"
34705But Tommy put on a long face and said,"What''s that?
34705But his wife began screeching at him, and said,"What art gaping at now?
34705But now, dear little Granny, tell me, if thou knowest, what way must I go, and where shall I find them?"
34705But the bird Mogol answered and said:"Art thou mad, Tsarevich Ivan?
34705But what am I to do with it?
34705But what then didst thou see in thy dream?"
34705But who is he?"
34705But why hast thou tied thy forehead round with rags, or hast thou damaged it?"
34705Canst thou not show me the way home?"
34705Did n''t some one or other teach it thee?"
34705Do you mean to say that you''ve not been invited there, gossip?
34705Dost thou want to eat and drink?
34705For what hast thou come, good youth?"
34705Foxy?"
34705Hast thou come hither to shell peas?
34705Hast thou not swallowed my brother, the Tsarevich Ivan?
34705He came to the straits of the sea where the whale- fish lay, and the whale- fish asked:"Did he say anything about me?"
34705He happened to fall in with the fox, and she asked him:"Whither away, little Kuz''ma?"
34705He said with a human voice:"What dost thou require?"
34705His mother fell a- scolding him, and reproached him bitterly:"Art thou not ashamed?
34705How can I go to the King and ask him for his daughter for thee?
34705How can I show thee to people?"
34705How dare you cut up my ram?"
34705How shall I escape old age?"
34705How will it be with me henceforth?
34705I am speaking the truth-- or hast thou forgotten how we found a hare in thy fishing- basket in the stream?"
34705I offer thee a high and honourable place with a great recompense; why then canst thou not share this reward with this youth?"
34705I saved thee from a cruel death, and thou wilt not do this trifle for me in return?
34705I suppose thou didst search through all the swamps fairly?"
34705I wo n''t,"said the Princess; but she thought to herself,"But why not?
34705I wonder if she would like to filch this one from me also?
34705Ilia Muromets and Alesha Popovich came to Thomas and said to him,"Wilt thou go thyself against the foe, or wilt thou send one of us?"
34705Ilia Muromets and Alesha Popovich said to Thomas,"Wilt thou go against them, or wilt thou send us?"
34705In the night the witch came to their door and said:"Are you asleep, little children, or not?"
34705Is there not a star on thy forehead?"
34705Is this what I must say to my son?"
34705Is thy journey far?"
34705Is your journey far?"
34705It cried with a human voice:"What dost thou require?"
34705Ivan looked about him and considered--"Whither does my way lie now?"
34705Ivan named his name and added:"I suppose thou hast heard, O Tsarevna, of the trickeries and the cunning wiles of the thrice- wise Helena?
34705Ivan the Tsarevich, however, took off his invisible cap, bowed to the Forest Monster, and said,"Why do you want to eat me?
34705Judge now thyself and tell me, wouldst thou not have thought me half mad if I had told thee all?"
34705Little fool Ivan awoke, made himself snug on his stove, and his brother asked him:"Well, what happened?"
34705Little fool Ivan went home and threw himself on the top of the stove, and his brother asked him:"Well, what happened?"
34705Marko looked at Vasily, fell into a furious passion with his wife, and said to her:"How darest thou we d our daughter away without my consent?"
34705Morozko crackled more than ever, and snapped his fingers harder and yet harder, and he said to the maiden for the last time,"Art thou warm, maiden?
34705Must I hide myself in armour from this shaven pate?
34705Not tell me?
34705Not tell?
34705One of the old men, the oldest of them all, looked at the others and said:"What news from the wide world?"
34705Or hast thou heard cruel, unfriendly words from thy father the Tsar?"
34705Or hast thou heard words unkind from thy father the Tsar?"
34705Or have the people been speaking the truth to thee after all?"
34705Say now, what wilt thou take for this carpet?"
34705So he went up to them and said,"What is the matter?"
34705So the nephew went to town to sell the uncle''s corn, and on the way he met a rich miller.--"Why art thou off to town?"
34705So they gave the archer their wonders, and said:"Well, Shmat- Razum, we''ll take thee with us; wilt thou serve us well and loyally?"
34705Softly, very softly, the Tsarevna raised the cloth from the dish, took out the duck, and said to the Tsarevich:"Well, didst thou guess my riddle?"
34705Stop here, stay with us, sit down and be our guest, wo n''t you?
34705Suppose now I were to give you a sword apiece?"
34705Surely thy fault was not small?"
34705Tell me, therefore, straight out, wo n''t you give your daughter to my son?"
34705The Baba- Yaga answered:"Though I have not seen it with my eyes, I have heard of it with my ears; but thou wilt never get there."--"Wherefore?"
34705The King observed the change in him, and asked him,"What ails thee?
34705The King received her with joy and led her into his golden halls, and said to her:"Wilt thou be a Queen?
34705The King saw that all his host was flying, rushed forward to stop them-- but how?
34705The Tsar asked her:"Where, then, is our destined son- in- law?"
34705The Tsarevich Ivan said to his father:"How can I ever take this quacker to wife?
34705The Tsarevich thought the matter over and said:"How can I help taking such gallant youths into my service?
34705The abbot wavered; he began to consult the brothers, and the brothers said to him:"Why should we stand in Vasily''s way?
34705The brothers laid their heads together and talked the matter over:"People can live without brains, why not without fingers also?"
34705The brothers returned and asked,"What''s the matter?
34705The brothers stood still, read the inscriptions, and fell a- thinking:"Whichever way shall we go?
34705The cat immediately climbed up to the window, and called to its master,"Art thou alive, Martin the widow''s son?"
34705The elder brothers had got only a hundred miles and no more from home, when they met an old man, and he asked them:"Whither are ye going, young men?
34705The fox ran all round the hut, and saw that the door and window were nailed up strongly, oh so strongly; how was she to get into the hut?
34705The fox said to him:"Why dost thou lie down like that?
34705The grandfather awoke, looked at his granddaughter, and said sleepily:"Art thou mad?
34705The merchants considered amongst themselves:"What''s the use of this garden, these ships, and these hosts to us?
34705The old man asked the fool,"Whither are you going?"
34705The peasant again said to his wife,"Recollect thyself, old woman; dost thou not see that every one is laughing at thee?
34705The peasant was quite petrified with horror, and he said to the monster,"Who art thou?"
34705The shoemaker was in great consternation: what was the meaning of it?
34705The soldiers of the Tsar saw him, and asked:"Why hast thou bound up thy forehead?
34705The twelve youths immediately appeared:"What is thy pleasure, and what thy command?"
34705Their mother then began, and asked them:"Well, my dear children, have you bought yourselves a little nag apiece?"
34705Then he awoke, beat off the black crows, looked hither and thither, and asked himself,"Where am I?"
34705Then one of the wood demons said to him,"Wherefore should we not fight?
34705They came home, and their mother asked them:"Well, my children, have you bought yourselves a sword apiece?"
34705They tried to look at the horses''teeth, but how was it to be done?
34705Thomas Berennikov answered thus:"How then?
34705Thomas looked at them over his shoulder, and without moving his head, said,"Who are you?"
34705Tsar Umnaya Golova immediately rushed out and asked,"What is the matter?"
34705Tsarevich Ivan, why didst thou burn that frog- skin?
34705Tsarevich Ivan, why hath God sent thee hither?"
34705Verlioka fell a- shrieking, fought about the air with his arms, and would have made for the door; but where was the door?
34705What business is it of yours?"
34705What could he do?
34705What do you want?"
34705What nice little piece of good news hast thou brought us?"
34705What provision do ye require for your journey?"
34705What shall I do, and how can I discover this Tsarevna?"
34705What tribute must we give thee that thou mayst trouble us no more, and leave our realm in peace?"
34705What was she to do?
34705What was to be done now?
34705When she saw Vasily, she cried:"Is it Vasily the Luckless that has fallen into this accursed place?"
34705Where hast thou been knocking about all these years?"
34705Whither has he gone?
34705Whither was he to go to find his sisters?
34705Who would be able to wield a machine like that?
34705Why do you tie up your head with rags?"
34705Why dost thou not tell me?"
34705Why hast thou been awaiting me?"
34705Why have you bandaged your head?"
34705Will ye agree to what I say if I divide what ye have found?"
34705Wilt thou be my servant?
34705Wilt thou not tell me where to find him?"
34705Ye who swim everywhere, have ye perchance heard how to go I know not whither, to fetch I know not what?"
34705Yet for all the good life he led, Martin seemed sorrowful; and why should he not?
34705You wanted to starve me to death in there, did you?
34705[ 52] The old woman did not want to waste this money, but what was to be done?
34705[ 53] Martin then went home, and his mother asked him,"What hast thou bought?"
34705[ 55] But what art thou thinking of?
34705art thou out of thy wits?
34705asked the Tsarevich Ivan.--"Well, what''s the use of haggling?
34705asked the Tsarevich;"how is it I do not see him here?"
34705did not our father leave us some money?
34705good man, whence hath God sent thee?
34705good youth, why dost thou visit me?"
34705how didst thou get hither?"
34705how long have I slept?"
34705is thy journey far?"
34705little sister, what is that thou hast got?"
34705me, the Tsarevich?
34705replied the old woman''s daughter,"or are you blind not to see that my arms and legs are quite benumbed with cold?"
34705roared the clerk at the old woman;"or dost thou want to make a fool of me?"
34705said he,"Shmat- Razum, dost thou not see how weary I am?
34705said he,"tell me the real truth; where didst thou get this lordly carpet?"
34705said he,"what dost thou seek, and whither art thou going?"
34705said she to the King,"is this thy final sovereign word?
34705said the Tsar to Thomas,"one half of my golden treasures and my daughter into the bargain, or one half of my glorious kingdom?"
34705said the Tsarevich Ivan,"what is there to fear?
34705said the Tsarevich Ivan;"yet tell me, dost thou not know the place where our sister the Tsarevna Beztsyenaya dwells?"
34705said the father;"and what didst thou dream, Vania?"
34705screeched the monster to Zor''ka;"what brings you hither?"
34705shrieked Martin,"whither art thou dragging Vaska?"
34705so you are asleep beneath the mill, are you?"
34705thought he;"can the unclean spirit[ 60] be playing his tricks with me?"
34705what are you quarrelling for?"
34705what hast thou done?
34705what have we done?
34705what is this treasure you are talking of?
34705what shall I buy for you at the fair?"
34705whence hast thou got that handkerchief?"
34705wherefore art thou grieved?
34705wherefore art thou so sad?
34705wherefore art thou so sad?"
34705whither is God leading you?"
34705who was it who burned me?"
34705why do you beat the poor dog so unmercifully?"
34705why hast thou come hither without thy wife?
34705wilt not thou lead us to the Tsar?
34705ye live in the wood and yet do n''t know that I am held in great honour by the Tsar?
709''And am I not one of his miners?''
709''And how has my beloved king slept tonight?''
709''And is there no hope for him?
709''And now can you show me a way to the king''s chamber not through the servants''hall?''
709''And pray, pretty prophetess,''he said, attempting to chuck her under the chin,''what have I got to repent of?''
709''And what was in yours, Curdie, for your first word was of battle?''
709''And who would n''t drink when he had a chance?
709''Are we all dirt?''
709''Are you willing to die for the king?''
709''But how, dear Curdie?''
709''But ma''am,''said Curdie,''where is the good of knowing that there is such a difference, if you can never know where it is?''
709''But may not one sometimes make a mistake without being able to help it?''
709''But then how can all the shapes speak the truth?''
709''But what have you done with the crown, Curdie?''
709''But what if the thief were to come, and she not to wake?''
709''But what is to be done?
709''But where am I to go, ma''am, and what am I to do?
709''But where is the crown?''
709''But would she like it any better if it were true?''
709''Can you do as you are bid?''
709''Can you lead a horse?''
709''Can you tell me, then, what I have to repent of?''
709''Did I make a noise and vex you?''
709''Did I not tell you the truth when I sat at my wheel?''
709''Did it not startle the king dreadfully?''
709''Did the messenger mention me in particular?''
709''Did you feel it too then?''
709''Did you never see moonlight before?''
709''Did you not know?
709''Do n''t you know then?''
709''Do n''t you see by my dress that I am in the king''s service?''
709''Do you think you will know me again?''
709''Do you want to be treated as you deserve, or will you speak, you hussy?''
709''Does he always sleep better after having it?''
709''Does it follow then that, as you are saying so much, you''re not thinking at all?''
709''Does the king wander like this every night?''
709''Even when it''s with his own will?''
709''Has your king- father been long ill?''
709''How can I tell, ma''am,''he returned,''seeing I do not know what it is, or what preparation it needs?
709''How can you be?''
709''How did you manage that?''
709''How do you know I''m thinking of anything?''
709''How has His Majesty slept?''
709''How much?''
709''How should it be, madam, that a grand lady like you should take notice of a poor man like me?''
709''How was it you came?
709''I hope you have not hurt yourself?''
709''I suppose you mean when I told you yesterday you were a pretty girl when you did n''t pout?
709''I suppose you mean, Mother,''answered Curdie,''that I must do as the old lady told me?''
709''Is it not time to rise, Curdie?''
709''Is the king dead, ma''am, that he has left it to you?''
709''It''s easy enough to see what Curdie has got to make of it, is n''t it, Peter?''
709''Ma''am,''said Curdie,''may I ask questions?''
709''May I kiss your hand, little Princess?''
709''Most likely; but will you give them the chance?''
709''No?''
709''Now what am I to make of it, Mother?
709''Now, Curdie, are you ready?''
709''One thing more,''said Curdie:''have you courage as well as truth?''
709''Please, King Papa,''she said,''can I not have my white pony?''
709''Please, am I to go now?''
709''Please, ma''am-- what am I to call you?''
709''Shall I take her with me or leave her?''
709''Shall I try her?''
709''Tell me this,''said Peter,''why do people talk about going downhill when they begin to get old?
709''That is what I mean: what else could it be?
709''That''s you, is it, my fine fellow?
709''The good food?
709''Then why do n''t you do as I tell you, and hold your tongue?''
709''Then will you tell Curdie?''
709''Then would you mind telling me now, ma''am, for I feel very confused about it-- are you the Lady of the Silver Moon?''
709''They want my crown, darling; and I ca n''t give them my crown, can I?
709''Was it your head or your feet that ought to bear the blame of your fall?''
709''Well, Curdie, what is it?''
709''What are you thinking about?
709''What do you break my window for, you rascal, with your pickaxe?''
709''What do you come here for, Curdie?''
709''What have you got there?''
709''What is it saying?''
709''What is it singing?''
709''What is it, ma''am?''
709''What must we be doing today, Curdie?''
709''What right has any one to bring an abomination like that into our city?
709''What should I want with a stone?''
709''What sort of man is your doctor?''
709''What wrong were you doing all day, Curdie?
709''What''s come to the wench?''
709''What''s that to me?
709''What''s that to my window?''
709''When will the doctor be here?''
709''Where do you come from, hussy?''
709''Where else, man?
709''Where is he?''
709''Where then are our soldiers?''
709''Who are you to make game of the king''s baker?''
709''Who is it?''
709''Who wants your preachments?
709''Why do n''t you come in, Curdie?''
709''Why not, Curdie?''
709''Why should you doubt it, Curdie?''
709''Why then, ma''am, should n''t she have it?''
709''Will Your Majesty please sign your royal name here?''
709''You say you did n''t mean any harm: did you mean any good, Curdie?''
709''You want to know where the light comes from?''
709Am I not right, Peter?''
709And how am I to believe such horrible things of Dr Kelman?''
709And if she kept a great Many pigeons-- and white ones, as Irene had told him, then whose pigeon could he have killed but the grand old princess''s?
709And what lord chancellor would, so attired in the street, proclaim his rank and office aloud?
709And why, pray, should we be turned out?
709And yet what did that signify, when there was the white globe shining, and here was the dead white bird in his hand?
709At the same time there was his mother''s testimony: what was he to do with that?
709But could he be awake, or was he not dreaming?
709But his silence at last drew attention upon it, and one of them said:''Come, young Curdie, what are you thinking of?''
709But how can I tell what you may look like next?''
709But love makes all safe-- doesn''t it, Curdie?''
709But the inside, who shall tell what lies there?
709But what was that in the sky, straight in front of him?
709CHAPTER 7 What Is in a Name?
709Can nothing be done?
709Can you call it stealing to take a thing from such a place as that?
709Can you find me a horse, think you, Sir Bronzebeard?
709Can you trust me?''
709Come, what is it you stole?
709Could he have opened a wrong door?
709Do n''t we, Lina?''
709Do n''t you know this is my house?''
709Do you feel none?''
709Do you think you are prepared for it?''
709Far away-- it looked miles away-- shone one minute faint point of green light-- where, who could tell?
709For if the butchers sent meat to the palace, was it not likely enough to be poisoned?
709For what is a king without his crown?''
709Gently he opened the door through which the sound came, and what did he see?
709Have n''t you had enough of it?''
709Have you ever heard what some philosophers say-- that men were all animals once?''
709Have you seen yourself in the glass this morning, miss?''
709How are we to get it, Curdie?
709How can you tell?
709How could she be there?
709How would you like to be served like that because you were ugly?
709If it were n''t mine, what would become of it now?''
709If their best and wisest were treated with such contempt, what might not the rest of them look for?
709Is it possible Kelman can be such a wretch?
709Is not your beautiful father sleeping better since he had the wine?''
709It was nothing but a pigeon, and why should he not kill a pigeon?
709May I ask why you are up so late, Princess?''
709Now I need n''t tell you, surely, Curdie, what you''ve got to do with this?''
709Now that would not be the case-- would it, Curdie?''
709Or how could I expect you should?
709Or shall I call the lord chancellor?''
709Or who would repent it, except that the drink was gone?
709Pray, Miss judgement, who gave you such an impertinent message to His Majesty''s household?''
709Shall I tell you again what I told my wheel, and my wheel told you, and you have just told me without knowing it?''
709She''s not a bit fonder of her looks than you are-- only what can she do to change them?''
709Sir Bronzebeard, will you die with me if need be?''
709So it''s you that''s up to her tricks, is it?''
709Tell true now: was n''t it the same that stole the loaf and the pie that sent you with the impudent message?''
709The straits of isolation were soon found in the palace: its invalids were requiring stronger food, and what was to be done?
709This was as he had hoped, for what could he have said if he had had to knock at it?
709Was it?
709Was the king''s chamber on fire?
709Was the whole world going to cast him out?
709Was the whole world going to make a work about a pigeon-- a white pigeon?
709What could it mean?
709What could it mean?
709What do you go breaking the rock for-- the very rock upon which the city stands?''
709What does it matter how many names if the person is one?''
709What had he been sent into the world for?
709What have I to repent of now, your holiness?''
709What is it?''
709What is the matter?''
709What messenger?''
709What other thing was in your brave brain when you donned your armour, friend?''
709What sort of a place is that for a jewel?
709Where were you, Curdie, that they could n''t find you?''
709Where''s the other now?''
709Which should he knock at?
709Who then am I to trust?''
709Why did she appear only now and then, and on such occasions?
709Why did she go about at night?
709Will you go fooling it still?
709Would he have to stand there forever, not knowing what to do, with the dead pigeon in his hand?
709Would he try to do as little as he could for his wages?
709Would you like to know why I made You put your hands in the fire?''
709one word more: may I tell my father and mother all about it?''
709she said,''it''s you, is it, young man?
709thought Curdie to himself;''but what is to be done with the rest?''
38112A Princess, did you say, Veikko? 38112 Ah, Harakka, is that you?
38112Ah,Mikko remarked, casually,"is that you, Osmo?
38112Am I not your sweetheart? 38112 And did you go through the castle, Pilka?"
38112And did you see the remains of the wedding feast?
38112And who is the awful looking old hag that has come with you?
38112And why not? 38112 And you wo n''t look inside, will you?
38112And you, Veikko, has your sweetheart not given you a sample of her weaving?
38112Are n''t you destroying my rye?
38112Are n''t you going to help me burn the brush?
38112Are you any good at mourning? 38112 Are you mad?
38112Are you really glad to see me, little mouse?
38112But how are we to get it away from the Worm?
38112But sister, sister,the two old hags asked,"how will you get them?"
38112But tell me, what were you hoping to find?
38112But where are you going?
38112But where shall we go?
38112But you ca n''t sing lullabies, can you?
38112Ca n''t you hear her crying? 38112 Can it be true?"
38112Can that be the old woman singing? 38112 Can you sing lullabies?"
38112Could n''t you prevail on him to come to me disguised as a poor woodsman?
38112Did n''t I tell you?
38112Did n''t he tell us she was a Princess? 38112 Did they treat you badly?"
38112Did you do anything to that cat?
38112Did you see him?
38112Did you wash your meal before you put it into the pot?
38112Do n''t you hear what''s going on?
38112Do n''t you know that disrespect to the dead is disrespect to God? 38112 Do n''t you remember what the King said?"
38112Do you mean to say you brought the oxen and the sledge and the logs through the hole in the gate?
38112Do you suppose we''ll be able to keep off the Wolves?
38112Do you think the Princess can bake bread?
38112Do you want to kill us?
38112Do you want to wake the family, Pekka? 38112 Father, are you sure that log ca n''t roll off?"
38112Father,called the Fox in a voice that sounded like the Hunter''s,"what''s that big brown thing lying on the ground near you?
38112Fight?
38112Fight?
38112Fight?
38112Give you one of my daughters? 38112 H''m,"thought the Ermine,"that''s the Farmer himself, is n''t it?
38112Has your sweetheart pretty pointed ears or sharp white teeth?
38112Have you got my coverlet woven of silk and gold?
38112Have you got my golden bell?
38112How can I get married? 38112 How can that be?"
38112How, sister, how?
38112How-- did you get here?
38112I mean-- I mean where is my wife?
38112I wonder why he does n''t want me to open just that door?
38112I''d like to spare you,he said,"but what would my wife say if I came home empty- handed?"
38112I?
38112If I am mistress of the house,Lisa said to herself,"why should I not unlock every door?"
38112In this sack?
38112Is it for this you made me leave the home of my fathers?
38112Is n''t it from the South, Osmo?
38112Is n''t it time we got up and killed Erkki?
38112Is n''t she beautiful?
38112Is there no one in all this kingdom strong enough to drink nine bottles?
38112Is there no way for us to escape?
38112Is this any way to treat a relation? 38112 Me?
38112Me? 38112 Me?"
38112Middle? 38112 Mikko,"said the Fox one day,"why are you so sad?"
38112Now then,the Farmer said as soon as the Bear was freed,"how are you going to reward me?"
38112Now, Mirri, tell me: what would you do if you suddenly met a Bear?
38112Now, sister, you''ll come, will you not?
38112Olli, have you got my horse?
38112Olli, have you got my money- bag?
38112One thing more, Olli: did you roast my old woman?
38112Or here? 38112 Osmo,"he said,"have you heard about that awful creature that Mikko has for a servant?"
38112Really, Mikko?
38112Really?
38112Say, Mikko,she called down,"what are you looking at?"
38112Say, Pekka, have you gone crazy?
38112See here, Veikko,the little mouse said,"why do n''t you take me for your sweetheart?"
38112Shall we fight, little one, you and I? 38112 Shall we fight, poor infant, you and I?
38112Shall we fight, pretty boy, you and I? 38112 Shall we stop here?"
38112Shall we?
38112So you''re the one who spoiled my little game with Harakka, are you? 38112 Tell me, granny, why did the Evil One curse the Sun?"
38112Tell me, granny,Log said,"where do the three Serpents keep prisoner the Sun and the Moon and the Dawn?"
38112Tell us,they beg him,"how did you get the Devil''s hide in the first place?"
38112That? 38112 The treasure?
38112Then you found something in the woodpile, did n''t you?
38112There now, master,Erkki said soothingly,"you''re not going to lose your temper over a little thing like a dead cat, are you?
38112There now, master,Erkki said,"you''re not going to lose your temper over a little thing like a dead wife, are you?"
38112Top? 38112 Wash it?
38112Well now,Pekka asked,"how shall we divide this our harvest?"
38112Well, Mikko,the Wolf said,"is the christening over?"
38112Well,his wife said,"if you feel that way about it, why do n''t you kill him to- night when he''s asleep?
38112Well,said the Wolf, pausing a moment in his work,"what did they name the baby this time?"
38112Were you the little mouse?
38112What about the Princess?
38112What ails you two?
38112What ails you?
38112What are they doing hereabouts?
38112What are you doing up there?
38112What are you doing?
38112What can this mean?
38112What did they name the child?
38112What do you think you''re doing biting that old root? 38112 What do you think you''re good for, anyway?
38112What do you want this time?
38112What do you want?
38112What does she look like?
38112What had I to do with it?
38112What have you done to my poor little dog?
38112What is it, brother?
38112What is it, brother?
38112What is it, sister? 38112 What is it?"
38112What is keeping my sons?
38112What is the use of riches,he asked himself,"if one ca n''t travel over the broad world and see wonderful sights?
38112What is this you are doing?
38112What news, Pilka? 38112 What would you have said?"
38112What''s that dog saying?
38112What''s that you''ve got in that sack? 38112 What''s that?"
38112What''s that?
38112What''s the matter with my porridge?
38112What''s the matter with you?
38112What''s the matter, Veikko?
38112What''s the matter? 38112 What''s the matter?"
38112What''s the matter?
38112What''s this? 38112 What''s what?"
38112What, little one? 38112 When is the King coming?"
38112When will you give me the Cow?
38112Where are you going with your Cow?
38112Where have you been all night?
38112Where will you get the vodka?
38112Where''s my Cow?
38112Who are you?
38112Who have taken from us the Sun and the Moon and the Dawn?
38112Who is your master and why does he want my bushel measure?
38112Who made this?
38112Who made what?
38112Who made what?
38112Who would turn you into a blue cross and stand you forever in the cemetery?
38112Who''s looking inside?
38112Whoever heard of a mouse that could weave?
38112Whose men are you?
38112Why are you sitting there like a wooden image instead of cooking my dinner?
38112Why can you tell me no more? 38112 Why did we dismount?"
38112Why did you open your mouth?
38112Why do n''t you begin?
38112Why have n''t we a little sister?
38112Why have n''t you got my dinner ready?
38112Why should n''t I kill you?
38112Why, Olli,she said,"is that you?
38112Will I be safe with you?
38112Will I?
38112Will nothing make you leave this tree stand?
38112Will you protect me?
38112Wonder what''s become of wicked old Wetehinen?
38112You can tell me no more?
38112You do n''t want the officers of the law coming and taking it all from us, do you?
38112You promise to let the tree stand,she said,"if I give you one of my children?"
38112You say it is from the South, Osmo? 38112 You thought I was the Three- Headed Serpent, did n''t you?"
38112You will hurry back, wo n''t you? 38112 You''re not going, are you, Mikko?
38112You''re the Worm, are n''t you?
38112You''re the sons of the Finn who lives across the Bay, are n''t you?
38112You, Mikko?
38112Your old woman?
38112Your wife? 38112 A second time Osmo paused and asked his sister:Do n''t you think we ought to take her?"
38112Are we to have no satisfaction at all?"
38112Are you sure?"
38112At the turnip field the Man said:"Now what do you want as your share-- the part that grows above the ground or the part that grows below?"
38112But Erkki quieted him by saying:"There now, master, you''re not going to lose your temper over a trifling matter like this, are you?
38112But before one day was past, he called Osmo to him and asked him angrily:"What did you mean by telling me your sister was beautiful?"
38112But where else could they go?
38112But why in the world had he given her the key if he really did n''t want her to open the door?
38112But, by the way, where are Three Bottles and Six Bottles?"
38112But, tell me, now that I am married what am I to do?
38112Ca n''t you lay her out in the storehouse?"
38112Can you mourn?"
38112Can you mourn?"
38112Can you recommend one?"
38112Can you tell me?"
38112Come and take our treasure that you found yourself in the forest?"
38112Could n''t you suggest to him to travel with a modest retinue this time?"
38112Did he tell his wife so?
38112Do n''t you hear me?
38112Do n''t you hear the rattle of his musket?"
38112Do n''t you hear the rattle of his musket?''
38112Do n''t you think we ought all of us to flee?"
38112Do n''t you want to bathe?"
38112Do you agree to this test?"
38112Do you understand?"
38112Do you want to kill all my children?
38112Does your father want something more this time, Veikko?"
38112Harakka, the Magpie, again called down:"What are you looking at, Mikko?"
38112How are you?"
38112How can they be having another christening?"
38112How do you wash meal?"
38112How fares my brother and how is my poor love, the King''s Son?"
38112I should have stopped and told you yesterday but your husband was beating you--""What''s that?"
38112Is it a Bear?"
38112Is that she?"
38112It looks very pretty, does n''t it?
38112Like a good girl wo n''t you run and get them for me?"
38112Me?"
38112Mercy me, where did my boy find a Princess?"
38112Mikko said,"what''s that you three are hauling?"
38112Oh, Olli, are you there?"
38112Oh, Olli, are you there?"
38112Oh, Olli, are you there?"
38112Oh, Olli, are you there?"
38112One morning when she saw her husband taking out his bow and arrows she said:"Where are you going now?"
38112Or here?"
38112Osmo rumbled,"what''s that you five are hauling?"
38112Pekka cried,"what''s that you four are hauling?"
38112Presently Osmo said:"Sister, what ails you?
38112Say, Veikko, when a Princess wants fine white flour, how does she get it?"
38112She beckoned to Veikko and when he came close she said:"Wo n''t you come sit beside me?"
38112She was always running to the neighbors and exclaiming:"Oh, my dear, have you heard so and so?"
38112That night at supper the Devil said:"Well, Erkki, did you come home the way I told you?"
38112That night at supper the Devil said:"Well, Erkki, did you finish the work I gave you?"
38112The Fox was already at the door but at the Worm''s entreaty he paused and said over his shoulder:"Why, my poor fellow, you surely know, do n''t you?
38112The King''s Son heard them in his sleep and for a moment woke and said:"What''s that?"
38112The brogues stopped walking and Wetehinen said:"Well, do you promise to give her to me?"
38112Then from what direction is it blowing?"
38112Then he asked Pekka:"What will you do for us if we spare you?"
38112Then he said:"My poor lads, do n''t you know that the King is coming with a great force to destroy the Worm and all his people?"
38112They''re well, are n''t they?"
38112Veikko cried,"do n''t you know me?"
38112We found a grouse--""A grouse?"
38112We have n''t had any Wolf meat now for some time, have we, Dinas?
38112What about the shed where the linen is stored?
38112What are they?"
38112What are we going to do about him?"
38112What are we going to eat now?"
38112What are you doing with my brogues?"
38112What are you talking about?
38112What can that mean?
38112What could the farmer do?
38112What could the poor Magpie do?
38112What could the poor Magpie say?
38112What do you say to my helping you?"
38112What do you say, Mikko?"
38112What do you want?"
38112What do you want?"
38112What do you want?"
38112What do you want?"
38112What if I have nothing left?
38112What is it you say?"
38112What more could a princess ask?"
38112What shall I do?
38112What was the evil adventure in which they perished?"
38112What way is the wind blowing to- day?
38112What will you take not to cut down this tree?"
38112What would you think of marrying her?"
38112What''s the matter?"
38112Whatever has become of them?"
38112Whatever shall I do?
38112When you eat me whose turn will it be then?
38112Where, O where are the heroes who will undertake to find the Sun and the Moon and the Dawn and return them to their places in the sky?"
38112Who best loves you, do you think?
38112Who on faithful guard will keep?
38112Who told you about that?
38112Who was it?"
38112Who will be the smallest then?"
38112Who will give you food and drink?
38112Why are n''t you howling?"
38112Why do n''t you take service with me?"
38112Why do you sigh?"
38112Wo n''t you and he come and visit me?"
38112Wo n''t you let me hang my pot on your crane?
38112Would n''t it be better to sacrifice another fledgling on the chance of saving the rest?
38112You will, wo n''t you?"
38112You wo n''t disappoint me, will you?"
38112[ Illustration:_ And Mikko, beginning with a little whimpering sound, slowly rose to a high heartrending cry_]"Can I?
38112cried the Devil in amazement,"did n''t you feel anything strike you last night while you were asleep?"
38112he cried,"have you been at my butter?"
38112he cried,"however did your sweetheart get threads for so fine a web?"
38112he cried,"what''s that you two are hauling?"
38112he shouted, shaking him awake,"have you been asleep all night?"
38112he sighed at last,"who made this?"
38112said the other Wolves,"thirteen Wolves turn tail on one Goat and one Ram?
38112the Farmer exclaimed,"is that your idea of a reward for kindness?"
38112the Squirrel exclaimed,"what''s that you''re hauling behind you?"
38112the Wolf cried,"it will be my turn then, wo n''t it?"
38112the farmer cried, wishing he were safe on shore,"it''s you, is it?
38112the youngest brother said, reproachfully,"is that any way for a human, kindhearted girl like you to talk?
38112without opening your mouth, can you?"
19461Abdul Kassim? 19461 Ah, but you will give me the Emperor''s royal crown and his sword and jewelled sceptre, if I do?"
19461Ah,thought he,"can this be a woman or a spirit?
19461Am I dead or alive?
19461And I wonder,says Jack, says he,"I wonder what can be in there, and what is the reason he wants me on the peril of my life not to go into it?
19461And how do you know it?
19461And now, what funny thing was it you saw up yonder on the hillside?
19461And now,says he,"Billy, was n''t that wonderful?"
19461And so you have had all this toil and labour on account of a foolish speech of mine? 19461 And what about me?"
19461And what have you done with this knight, so accomplished in all things, and so skilled?
19461And what is my name?
19461And what is that? 19461 And what is the last news in your town?"
19461And what son of a Rajah is the man in the palkee?
19461And what,cried Rustem,"has become of that cruel Ebony, with his two black wings?
19461And what,he continued,"is the use of your wand?"
19461And where is the sky- dragon to be found?
19461And where is this castle?
19461And where is your sister Reutha?
19461And who art thou?
19461And why do n''t you do it yourself?
19461And you will not go to sleep?
19461Are there any German merchants in the city?
19461Are you Abdul Kassim,he said,"son of Kalif, the merchant who lived by the Golden Bridge?"
19461Are you not able to afford me the enjoyment of some rest at this hour of the night? 19461 Are you thinking of revisiting that accursed castle?
19461Arndt,whispered he,"did you ever hear of the Hill- men?
19461Baba,answered the Malee''s wife,"do not think of such a thing; are you mad?
19461But how can I do this, perfidious witch?
19461But how is it,asked the Rajah,"that he thus dazzles our eyes?"
19461But what news have you to relate to me, friend Beatrice? 19461 But, my poor Hookedy- Crookedy,"says she,"it was better so, for what could you do?"
19461But,said Hans, with tears in his eyes,"how can I do that?
19461Can I find her?
19461Can there be anything better for me than to secure for myself an additional life?
19461Can you tell me, now,said the lad,"which is the horse I have caught and broken, and which is the one I had before?
19461Command, and whatever it is I will obey?
19461Could this be true,he thought,"or was it all a dream?
19461Could you provide me with a cup of water and a mouthful of something to eat? 19461 Cruel that you were,"said he;"why did you desert me?
19461Daintily reared, and perhaps of noble birth is she, but should I gratify her desire, how can she bear the poverty to which we are accustomed? 19461 Did I not expressly forbid you to enter the ninth room?"
19461Did not I see you,asked the unicorn,"put some sand and stones of pure gold into your pocket as you went to the fountain?
19461Did you see anything in the orchard the day?
19461Did you see nothing in the orchard the day, Billy?
19461Do n''t you remember this?
19461Do you hear anything?
19461Do you know that our august Prince lost some time ago a diamond and a javelin, on which his heart was greatly set?
19461Do you see anything strange about him, Jack?
19461Do you see this tree?
19461Do you think you should know my father, mother darling, if you were to see him again?
19461Fritz, eh? 19461 Has the whole population been robbed and murdered by the Giants?"
19461Have I really lost my friend Topaz?
19461Have any of the Ranees been unkind to you?
19461Have you,he asked,"the crystal ball?
19461Holy Father,said Zadig,"what does all this mean?
19461How am I ever to see my own son again?
19461How can I tell?
19461How dare you disturb me, impudent beggar,she exclaimed,"by coming to knock at my door?
19461How dare you keep my sister? 19461 How dare you say that?"
19461How did you get across?
19461How does it come here?
19461How dost thou think that?
19461How is that?
19461How long have I been sleeping?
19461How would it be,he thought,"if I placed my wisdom at the Caliph''s disposal, became his first adviser, and finally married the lovely Fatma?"
19461I am after breaking my heart riding this ass of a horse; but will you give me the limping white garron for him?
19461I wonder now what it is that is hewing away up yonder?
19461I wonder, now,said Youngling,"what it is digging and shovelling up yonder at the top of the rock?"
19461I wonder,says Jack,"how the poor mare and the poor bear are getting along and what the Giant of the Hundred Hills was doing here to- day?
19461I would give my life to win her,he said, earnestly,"but I am certain to fail, and then what will my poor mother do?
19461I? 19461 If everything does not deceive me,"he said,"there is a secret connection between our fates; but where can I find the key to this riddle?"
19461If you please,said Hans,"will you set Fritz and Franz free first?"
19461If you wish to be one of us, are you ready to eat human flesh and take a share in our Adventures?
19461In what direction did he go from the foot of the garden?
19461Is it me ye want?
19461Is it possible? 19461 Is there no one to see to a knight who craves shelter?
19461Is your Highness dreaming?
19461It is the Book of Destiny,replied the hermit;"would you like to read it?"
19461My tight little fellow,says a man that was passing to Billy,"why do n''t you come to see the great fight?"
19461Now, master,said the unicorn when Hans got back,"do you still intend to return to those brothers of yours?
19461O fool,said he,"what is the matter?
19461O my Lord,they cried,"what offerings will please you?
19461Of which jewels are you speaking?
19461Oh, dearest Princess,exclaimed the Caliph,"tell me when does he come and where is the hall?"
19461Oh, my poor Hookedy- Crookedy,says she,"it was better so, for what could you do?"
19461Oh, you wo n''t, wo n''t you?
19461Poor Hookedy- Crookedy,says she,"what could you do if you were there yourself?"
19461Poor boy,responded the turtle- dove,"who bore you such ill- will as to send you there?"
19461Sha n''t I have anything at all, then, out of father''s and mother''s goods?
19461Sir Count, what did I dream last night?
19461So you lie here and trickle, and run down all alone?
19461So you stand here all alone and hew, do you?
19461So you stand here all alone, and dig and delve?
19461Tell me, what are the people talking about?
19461That any one has dared to accuse us, the most truthful and discreet of birds, of being gossips?
19461That is very sad,said the first little jackal;"but could he never by any chance come to life again?"
19461The Oracle was plain; why did not you understand it? 19461 Then will nobody be able to inform the poor queen''s son where they have hidden the Bird of Truth?"
19461There is gloom on your face, girl,said the youth;"what do you here?"
19461They are doing very well there,he said;"why should you disturb them?
19461They said to us--''Whither do we go? 19461 Well, I suppose it can not be helped, then; but how much would the young man give you for the cub?"
19461Well, Jack, my fine boy,says he,"how have you got on to- day?"
19461Well, now,said Peter and Paul,"have you found out where the water comes from?
19461Well, what next?
19461Well, what was it, so strange and rare,said Peter and Paul,"that you saw up there at the top of the rock?"
19461Well,smiled the Caliph,"which jewels should I mean but those you have inherited from your father?"
19461What about my wages now?
19461What about my wages now?
19461What about my wages, now?
19461What are the proper remedies, and how could he be cured?
19461What became of my mother?
19461What castle is that?
19461What day will the three of you come?
19461What did they say?
19461What do you mean? 19461 What do you mean?"
19461What do you want, impudent disturber?
19461What do you want?
19461What does it matter to you?
19461What fight?
19461What harm will it do?
19461What has kept you so long, father? 19461 What have you done with all the melons I gave you?"
19461What have you got there?
19461What is that?
19461What is the meaning of it?
19461What is the meaning of the red cord around your foot, too?
19461What is the meaning of this?
19461What is this that I see?
19461What is this?
19461What man? 19461 What profit would you get from my death?
19461What reward would you give me for sending plenty of fish to you?
19461What seek you here?
19461What set you weeping for the black horse?
19461What shall we call it?
19461What suitor is that?
19461What want you with the sparkling golden water, which is in my charge?
19461What want you with the sparkling golden water, which is in my charge?
19461What will you give me,says the hen- wife,"and I''ll very soon part them?"
19461What wonder is it, pray, that a wood- cutter should stand and hack up on a hillside?
19461What would take the likes of me there?
19461What''s your news?
19461Where do you come from? 19461 Where do you come from?"
19461Where have you been all night, my children?
19461Where is Destiny?
19461Where is it?
19461Where is my brother, ugly old traitress?
19461Where is the maiden to be seen?
19461Where shall we go, since Steelpacha can overtake us in a moment? 19461 Where were you hiding?"
19461Which way did she go?
19461Who are you, sir, and what do you want?
19461Who are you? 19461 Who could tell you were still alive, when you''ve been wandering about so long?"
19461Who else took the head off the beast but you?
19461Who is the honourable That Side, and how comes she into this miserable hut?
19461Who should take the heads off the knot but the man that put the heads on?
19461Who told you so, barbarian?
19461Why are you not here to see all these wonders? 19461 Why are you weeping thus?"
19461Why did you do thus?
19461Why do you ask foolish questions?
19461Why do you do that?
19461Why do you fight like this?
19461Why do you ring again, Guzra Bai?
19461Why have you come here?
19461Why have you left my parents? 19461 Why should I go away?"
19461Why, then,asked her brothers and sisters,"why do you not tell the Rajah that you are living, and that you are the Ranee Surya Bai?"
19461Wife, did you sweep the courtyard?
19461Wife,replied the poor fisherman,"what could I do?
19461Will the beautiful Princess of Cashmere recover?
19461Will you give me the first son you have?
19461Will you take it on your shoulder or on your head?
19461Wo n''t they come back?
19461Wo n''t you be silent, cursed chatterers?
19461Would the Emperor like to hear another song?
19461Would you have me marry you? 19461 Would you like, perhaps, a piece of a duck or the leg of a frog?"
19461Would you take me for him?
19461Ye''re too big,says he,"for one bite, and too small for two, and what will I do with you?"
19461Yes,answered the princess in astonishment;"but why do you ask?"
19461Yes,he said;"but tell me the very truth; am I your own child, or the child of someone else, adopted as yours?
19461Yes,she answered;"what of them?"
19461You remember that I gave you three lives? 19461 You will not be afraid, Reutha?"
19461You would like it, then?
19461Your wife?
19461''And this bird, where is it?''
19461''Sir, are you crazy?''
19461''Yours?''
19461--"Who lost the sparkling golden water?"
19461--"Will your Highness remember your poor brother, the Burgomaster?"
19461A traveller passed along the way, and said to him:"Whose is this wheat?"
19461Again, a third time, when some weeks had passed, the Barber said to him,"Is there no ripe fruit in our garden yet?"
19461And as he went up and up, the brook grew smaller and smaller, and at last, a little way farther on, what do you think he saw?
19461And how do you come to know Yun- Ying?"
19461And how shall you, a single man, overmaster him?
19461And running home to the Ranee( his adopted mother), he said to her,"Are you really my mother?
19461And there lay the poor Moon, dead and buried in the bog; till some one would set her loose; and who''d know where to look for her?
19461And when the Giant came home that night, says he to Jack,"Well, Jack, what sort of a day have you had this day, and how did you get along?"
19461And when the conjurors said to him,"Why should you go away?
19461Are there not enough Queens and Princesses in the world, that you should wish to marry a wretched old beggar- woman?"
19461As she walked forth, very sad at missing her disguise, her husband ran to meet her, smiling and saying,"How do you do, my dear?
19461As soon as the wedding was over, the Prince said to his wife,"Gentle wife, tell me how much longer you intend to wear that old skin?
19461At last he turned to the three brothers with the question,"And what doughty deeds have you done up to this time?"
19461At last she opened her eyes, and seeing the Malee''s wife, said,"Where am I?
19461At last, after talking for some time of this thing and that, she asked him,"Would you do any harm to my brothers if they were to come here?"
19461At this she smiled and dried her eyes, but quickly added,"You will let me take these crows with me, will you not?
19461At this the rose bush trembled very much, and sighed and said,"I am a little girl as well as you; how can you be so cruel?
19461Behold, who comes to meet him?
19461Besides, are we not your servants now that you are so rich?
19461But about the time when he should drive the cattle home- wards, whom should he see coming but a great giant with a sword in his hand?
19461But he did n''t care a bit for that; up he clambered, and when he got near the top, what do you think he saw?
19461But no sooner did the jeweller see them than he said,"How could such a poor man as you become possessed of such precious stones?
19461But the old woman answered,"Are you mad?
19461But the question is, do you want to go back there?"
19461But where was it?
19461But where was the Nightingale?
19461But who can describe their astonishment as they looked about them?
19461But why is not Ebony at my side?
19461But,"and here the Princess''s voice grew very sad,"how will that poor boy ever guess this dream to- morrow?"
19461By and by the Wise Old Man of the Sea came to him and asked:"Why are you crying so bitterly, Prince Fire- fade?"
19461Ca n''t you take it off, dear?"
19461Can I help you?
19461Can he be my son?
19461Can you tell me where to find him?"
19461Care you not whether they curse me and I die?
19461Could she be really the world- renowned Panch- Phul Ranee, or was he dreaming still?
19461Dare we cross it?"
19461Did you see anything in the orchard?"
19461Do Caliphs taste and unafraid, Turn storks, and weeping night- owls aid?
19461Do you not remember his having said anything of the way which he intended to go when he left you?"
19461Do you not think it fair that the one who kills the other should marry the Princess?"
19461Do you think I am going to give my child up at your command?
19461Does the lark soar as high as of yore?
19461Does the linnet still prune itself?"
19461Does the nightingale still sing well?
19461During supper she asked him, as if by chance,"Would you do any harm to my brothers if they should suddenly arrive?"
19461Ebony was right; but why is he not here?"
19461Ebony, my dear Ebony, where are you?"
19461Even though age and sickness and want had done their utmost to change him?"
19461Fair Princess of Cashmere, when shall I again behold your charms?"
19461Finally he said to himself,"After all, why should I be afraid?
19461For he thought to himself,"Why should I not?
19461For who would hurt the white- breasted creature, that every one called the Honourable Lord Crane?
19461Grieved at heart, the young man would work harder than ever and think to himself:"How shall I earn some more money?
19461Had it, indeed, been only a single night, the months that seemed to have passed while they were under the hill?
19461Has not my husband come back?
19461Have I found you after these many years?"
19461Have I not three lives?"
19461Have you already forgotten our father''s command?"
19461Have you brought a flask with you?"
19461Have you forgotten how, when you were a little boy, you were taught to jump by conjurors and tumblers( for the parrot knew all the Rajah''s history)?
19461Have you no friends?"
19461Have you quite forgotten what our father charged us on his dying bed?
19461He got black in the face with rage when he saw this, and he said,"Jack, did I not warn you on the peril of your life not to go into that stable?"
19461He pulled it out, and no sooner had he done so than Surya Bai opened her eyes, and stood up, crying,"Where am I?
19461He said,"What do you mean by putting the castle on fire?"
19461He will ask you,''What is the use of such a fire as that?''
19461He would have turned back, but whither should he go?
19461His mother also was overjoyed at his return, and they said to him,"Since you have been restored to us again, why should you wander any more?
19461How can I ever repay you?"
19461How can I pay him?
19461How could I stand by and see life taken?
19461How could he leave two families in despair, and cut his parents to the heart?
19461How dare you say so?
19461How did I come to lose you?
19461How do you live in the palace?"
19461How long is it since you came here?"
19461How shall I get a little sakà © for my poor father, who really needs it in his weakness and old age?"
19461How shall we hand him over to you?"
19461How would it be if I gave him a palace and raised him to be the husband of my daughter?"
19461If you laugh, why do you weep?
19461If you weep, why do you laugh?"
19461In Bagdad, may there still be found That potent powder, finely ground, Which changes all who on it feast, Monarch or slave, to bird or beast?
19461In reply to the usual question, given in the usual tone of thunder:"What seek you here?"
19461Is it a dream, or true?"
19461Is it a dream?
19461Is it his fault that I am dying so dreadful a death?"
19461Is it me ye want?"
19461Is it not true that you became in turn an eagle, an elephant, an ass, a doctor, and a magpie, to protect me from ill?"
19461Is it with a swing by the back, a cut of the sword, or a square round of boxing?"
19461Is life so hateful that you come back again for me?"
19461Is not that far better than having a poor helpless sister to work for?"
19461Is that possible?"
19461Is that the way to speak to a Prince of Cashmere of the son- in- law he has chosen?"
19461Is there no governor, nor squire nor even a groom, to take my horse away?"
19461Is there nothing we can do?"
19461Mahdeo answered,"What would be the use of that?
19461Must you never hear her ask your pardon for the past, nor know her cruel punishment?
19461Must you now never know that you won your wife?
19461My dear friend, what do you tell me?"
19461On a day of days, while he was fishing, there rose a sea- maiden at the side of his boat, and she asked him,"Are you getting much fish?"
19461Or shall I put you out of the forest at some other point?"
19461Or, shall we be separated, and that which promises love and happiness last only a little while, to pass away, leaving gloom and sorrow behind?"
19461Prepare till I kill you,"says he;"you''re too big for one bite, and too small for two; what will I do with you?"
19461Says they to Hookedy- Crookedy,"What will you take for your two bottles?"
19461Shall I call him down?"
19461She answered,"Are you sure it is quite fresh?
19461She held out her hand to the Caliph saying:"Do you no longer recognize your night owl?"
19461She was not a little surprised to see him, and cried out to him,"In the name of heaven, husband, how came you here?"
19461Should we not go to look at the castle?
19461Simple customs and innocence not to be found in the country, nor among birds?
19461So he went to the town, and took the precious stones to a jeweller, and said to him,"What will you give me for these?"
19461So the Caliph, too, took him for the possessor of the magic stones?
19461So when they said to her,"Can you kill these children?"
19461Son- in- law Jackal, can not you help me?"
19461The Caliph grew serious,"Do you think, Vizier, that this man could usurp my throne?
19461The Caliph looked at him, and said:"Grand Vizier, why is thy countenance so sad?"
19461The Farmer asked of him what he meant?
19461The Farmer met him at the door, and asked him whither was he going, or what was he seeking?
19461The King flew into a rage, and said,"How dare you do that to the two finest and bravest men of this world?"
19461The Prince caught hold of her hand, and said,"Now, tell me true, who are you?
19461The Sea- king at once called together all the fishes of the sea, great and small, and asked:"Has any fish taken this fish- hook?"
19461The barber bowed to the ground and said:"What should they speak of, O King of the Faithful, if not of your goodness and wisdom?"
19461The elder, who did everything about the estate, said to himself one day:"Why should I toil for this lazy fellow?
19461The farmer''s wife saw her and said,"Poor old woman, who are you?
19461The giant laughed at him, and says he,"How will I kill you-- with a swing by the back, a cut of the sword, or a square round of boxing?"
19461The giant laughed at the size of him, and says he,"Well, how will I kill you?
19461The giant laughed heartily at the size of him, and says he,"What way do you prefer being killed?
19461The nobles went out to meet them, and called out,"What great Rajah is this who is dressed so royally, and comes flying through the air so fast?
19461The old man asked him,"Jack, where are you going?"
19461The son asked his father one day,"Is any one troubling you?"
19461The two storks upon the roof of the palace looked at each other, and the Caliph said:"Canst thou now divine, Grand Vizier, why I am enchanted?
19461The wife answered,"What are you thinking of, husband?"
19461The young Prince saw her, and calling the Malee''s wife, said to her,"What beautiful lady is that in your house?
19461Then Guzra Bai began to cry, for she knew it was not true; but what could one poor woman do against thirteen?
19461Then Surya Bai''s attendant said,"Have you ever asked her her history?
19461Then for the first time Destiny spoke to his guest, and said to him:"Why hast thou come to me?"
19461Then he said to her:"Who art thou then, who wouldst have hindered me from having these sandals?"
19461Then he said,"Ah, Princess, is it indeed you?
19461Then his mother said to Surya Bai,"Why should you be in such a hurry to go home?
19461Then the Prince asked,"Sister, whom have you married?"
19461Then the boy sprang up and said,"Which way did your brothers take when they met the Rakshas?"
19461Then the traveller was seized with wrath and envy, and cried out:"And where is_ my_ fortune?"
19461Then, turning to Surya Bai, she said,"Who are you, and what do you want?"
19461They all asked Billy was not he going to the king''s castle, but Billy said,"Arrah, what would be bringin''the likes of me there?"
19461Thus one day he said to her,"Good mother, what is the use of all those little jars of water you have arranged round your house?"
19461Upon this the Prince asked him,"In the name of heaven, who are you?"
19461Was it for this I was cold, and proud, and stern-- to break the cup of my own happiness and to be the death of such as you?
19461We have been tricked and deceived by a parcel of made- up stories-- where is that young fellow?
19461Well, look just in front of you; do you see those two?"
19461What can I do to requite them?
19461What can that black stuff be on her face and hands?
19461What can the meaning of it be?"
19461What can we do?"
19461What do you think about it?"
19461What do you want?
19461What do you want?
19461What dog?"
19461What dost thou ask from this day to the day when the crop will be gathered in?"
19461What else do you want?"
19461What good would it do me?
19461What has become of our sisters?
19461What have you been doing and where are you going?"
19461What if we should become storks?"
19461What is that?"
19461What is the name of your country?"
19461What on earth are you going to keep that fox for?"
19461What power do you think you possess, to succeed where all before you have failed?
19461What should he hear behind him but"All hail, my brother- in- law!"?
19461What side are you going to fight on?"
19461What will I do with you?"
19461When he reached the old tree the parrot said to him,"It is two days since you left us; what news have you brought from the village?"
19461When she saw the jewel, the Princess asked her maidens:"Is there anyone inside the gate?"
19461When, however, the Barber said to him,"What is the garden like which you bought with the money I gave you?"
19461Whence come_ you_, gossips, Who travel so little And talk so much?''
19461Where are you going and what do you want?"
19461Where can they be?"
19461Where have you been?"
19461Where is your skin now?
19461Where was there a way of escape for him?
19461Who are you?"
19461Who are your father and mother?
19461Who can express the anguish, the tenderness, the horror of that meeting?
19461Who gave thee to me?"
19461Who is here?
19461Why are you here?
19461Why can not we both live happily together like two sisters?"
19461Why did n''t you do as we advised you, and jump up nicely?"
19461Why do you insult me in my last moments?"
19461Why has no one told me about it before?"
19461Why have you been so long without coming here?
19461Why should I, when I know neither who nor whence you are?
19461Why should not we give them life?"
19461Why should we not buy one?"
19461Wife, did you do this?"
19461Will it be by a swing by the back, a cut of the sword, or a square round of boxing?"
19461Will she be patient, when she has to suffer hunger?
19461Will you let me try?"
19461Will you never remember what our father commanded?"
19461Would you do any harm to my brothers if they happened to come here?"
19461Yes or no?"
19461You are a wise man-- can you guess what this means?"
19461You are sure it is the best butter?"
19461a devil or an angel in disguise?"
19461and how did she come there?"
19461and what then am I to do?"
19461and who are you?
19461and who are you?"
19461and why are you here alone by yourself in the jungle?
19461and"Can you recall that?"
19461answered the old parrot,"of course we could; but what would be the good of doing so?
19461both?"
19461cried Zadig;"and even if you read the issue in your Book of Destiny, who gave you power to drown a youth who never injured you?"
19461cried the Rajah,"how many and how many brave men has my daughter killed?
19461cried the brothers,"ca n''t you take us, too?"
19461cried the recent arrival,"I have come to ask where a knight is who has been here?"
19461he cried out,"you would steal my wife, would you?"
19461he inquired;"and what are you going to do, my son?"
19461he said,"even when eighteen years have gone by since you saw him last?
19461he said,"that wretched- looking man who is beating the drum?"
19461screamed the old woman--"your wife?
19461she replied;"have I not always treated you as a son?"
19461thought he;"am I to die like the scores of young men before me?"
19461thought the Prince,"this, then, is the thief; but what can this queer old woman want with lotus flowers?"
19461was that indeed your thought?
19461what are you doing with that fox?"
19461what can I do for my seven daughters?
19461what could I, a poor weak woman, do here alone?
19461what is there to be alarmed about?
19461what shall I do to bring back my poor sister?
19461what shall I do?"
19461whatever has become of it?"
19461where do you come from?
19461wo n''t you buy some fresh butter?"
16865A present to us?
16865A puppet?
16865Ah, little thief,said the angry peasant,"then it is you who carries off my chickens?"
16865Alone? 16865 And after that?"
16865And do you make the journey on foot?
16865And how can you possibly know that I have told a lie?
16865And how did you find him?
16865And how did you manage to escape?
16865And how have you managed to live? 16865 And how long have you been shut up here?"
16865And if I study hard, what concern is it of yours?
16865And if I wish to continue my studies?
16865And if the Fairy scolds me?
16865And in what did it consist?
16865And my mamma?
16865And my papa?
16865And no masters either?
16865And no one is ever made to study?
16865And now, what are you doing here?
16865And now,asked the Fox,"what are you going to do with all that money?"
16865And that is?
16865And that trade-- what is it?
16865And the Fairy?
16865And the coat, papa?
16865And the four pieces-- where have you put them?
16865And the money?
16865And this attention?
16865And to whom does this belong?
16865And what are you doing here?
16865And what are you going to do? 16865 And what have you done with your jacket, your trousers, and your cap?"
16865And what is it called?
16865And what is it?
16865And what is your opinion of him?
16865And what road must I take to go there?
16865And what trade does he follow?
16865And what was he doing?
16865And when will it come back?
16865And where are you going?
16865And where did you lose them?
16865And where do you wish to take me?
16865And where has the goat gone?
16865And where has the old wooden Pinocchio hidden himself?
16865And where is the Field of Miracles?
16865And where shall we go?
16865And who has eaten your feet?
16865And who is Pinocchio?
16865And who is the Fairy?
16865And who is this Candlewick?
16865And who is this Pinocchio?
16865And who is your papa?
16865And who threw it at him?
16865And why are you all covered with white?
16865And why did you buy me? 16865 And why did you follow the advice of that false friend?
16865And with what was he wounded?
16865And you are acting as watch- dog?
16865And you think I am not?
16865And you-- have you nothing to say?
16865And you?
16865And your gold pieces?
16865And your new coat?
16865Are my companions ready?
16865Are you not afraid of death?
16865Are you perhaps speaking of me?
16865Are you saying that seriously?
16865At the hospital?
16865But do you know for certain that the holidays begin on the first of January and finish on the last day of December?
16865But have you by chance taught him to talk?
16865But how are the days spent in the''Land of Boobies''?
16865But how came you to come to the cave?
16865But how can you, who but a short time ago were a little donkey, have become a wooden puppet, only from having been left in the water?
16865But how is it possible that they could become so many?
16865But if I come with you, what will my good Fairy say?
16865But is it really so?
16865But is it really true,asked the puppet,"that in that country boys are never obliged to study?"
16865But now,continued Pinocchio,"are you really certain that there are no schools in that country?"
16865But what do you suppose that I can do all day nailed to this door?
16865But what will the master say?
16865But where is this blessed shore?
16865Can he really be dead?
16865Dead? 16865 Did Melampo act in this manner?"
16865Did it really say that? 16865 Did they pay for the supper?"
16865Do n''t you see? 16865 Do you also know Geppetto?"
16865Do you grieve for a donkey that cost you nothing?
16865Do you know this Pinocchio?
16865Do you know what I will do?
16865Do you mean to pretend that a little donkey like you must be kept on breasts of chickens, and capons in jelly?
16865Do you not know me?
16865Do you promise me?
16865Do you promise me?
16865Do you remember? 16865 Do you see that puppet dangling from a branch of the Big Oak?"
16865Do you suppose that a fish of that size will wait your convenience? 16865 Do you think I called myself Pudding?
16865Do you think, my little donkey, that I bought you only to give you food and drink? 16865 Do you want me to tell you?"
16865Does he gain much?
16865Does not hay please you either? 16865 Excuse me; but why, then, do you keep that cotton cap on your head which covers up your ears?"
16865For yourself?
16865Gain much? 16865 Good- day, Master Antonio,"said Geppetto;"what are you doing there on the floor?"
16865Good? 16865 Has he been hurt?"
16865Has the play begun long?
16865How came you to be here?
16865How can you tell that, when you have not even tasted it?
16865How come you to be here?
16865How do you come to know my name?
16865How far is it from here to the shore?
16865How far off is the Field of Miracles?
16865How long does it take to go from here to the shore?
16865How much does it cost to go in?
16865How much will you give me for my cap?
16865How my doing?
16865How? 16865 How?"
16865How?
16865How?
16865I came into the field to pick two bunches of these Muscatel grapes, and--"But were the grapes yours?
16865I want a little wood to make my puppet; will you give me some?
16865I? 16865 If it was not you, who then did it?"
16865In what way?
16865Is he dead? 16865 Is it possible to hear of anything more dreadful?"
16865Is it really so? 16865 Is the Fairy at home?"
16865Is this Dog- Fish very big?
16865Is this Dog- Fish who has swallowed us very big?
16865It seems to me-- and yet I am not sure--"Do you not remember the Snail who was lady''s- maid to the Fairy with blue hair? 16865 No, not yet?
16865Not a dog? 16865 Not really?
16865Not really? 16865 Not really?
16865Nothing, really nothing?
16865Now, then,demanded the assassins,"will you open your mouth-- yes or no?
16865Of escaping? 16865 Once for all,"shouted Pinocchio in a rage,"may I know, you ill- educated Parrot, what you are laughing at?"
16865Peel them?
16865Pinocchio? 16865 Precisely; and you?"
16865Really?
16865See, then, if I was not right?
16865Shall I ever have the happiness of seeing him again and kissing him?
16865Six hundred miles? 16865 Tell me quickly, my beautiful little Snail, where have you left my good Fairy?
16865Tell me, Cricket, who may you be?
16865Tell me, you impertinent rascal, does your story end here?
16865Tell me,continued the Pigeon,"amongst your companions, do you happen to know a puppet who is called Pinocchio?"
16865The Fairy is asleep and must not be awakened; but who are you?
16865Then my eyes tell me true?
16865Then the pardon is granted?
16865Then the wound was not serious?
16865Then what must I do to please you?
16865Then what shall I be?
16865Then where is Melampo? 16865 Then who taught you to carry off other people''s property?"
16865Then why on earth did you require so much persuasion to take it?
16865Then you would have it that it was I?
16865Then, if you are not a fish, why did you let yourself be swallowed by the monster?
16865To make game of you? 16865 To take me?
16865Well, master, do you wish to know the true story? 16865 Well, then, neighbor Geppetto,"said the carpenter, to prove that peace was made,"what is the favor that you wish of me?"
16865Well, then,said the Fox,"you are quite decided to go home?
16865Well, will you go with me? 16865 What are these conditions?"
16865What are you doing there, lying on the ground?
16865What are you doing there?
16865What are you doing with your foot stuck in the door?
16865What are you dreaming of?
16865What are you dreaming of?
16865What are you laughing at?
16865What are you muttering between your teeth?
16865What are you thinking of? 16865 What are your orders, gracious Fairy?"
16865What can that music be? 16865 What do you think that I could do with a jacket of flowered paper?
16865What do you want with me?
16865What do you want with me?
16865What does that matter? 16865 What fever is it?"
16865What has brought you to me, neighbor Geppetto?
16865What has happened?
16865What has surprised you so much?
16865What is it?
16865What is it?
16865What is that building?
16865What is that little light I see in the distance?
16865What is the matter now?
16865What is the matter with you?
16865What is the pumping machine?
16865What matters my new coat? 16865 What matters school?
16865What must it be to me, who bought him for ready money?
16865What was he doing?
16865When do you start?
16865When the thieves got into the yard, were you asleep or awake?
16865Where are they?
16865Where are you rushing off to in such a hurry?
16865Where can my papa be?
16865Where did you see him?
16865Where is the Dog- Fish?
16865Where is the little boat?
16865Where is the lump of sugar?
16865Where shall we meet again?
16865Who are you?
16865Who calls me?
16865Who can say? 16865 Who do you think could save you, unhappy wretch?"
16865Who insults you?
16865Who is I?
16865Who is speaking?
16865Who is there?
16865Who is there?
16865Why are you laughing?
16865Why ca n''t you?
16865Why did you sell it?
16865Why do you pity me?
16865Why have you come to raise a disturbance in my theater?
16865Why not? 16865 Why should I tell you a lie?"
16865Why were they in such a hurry?
16865Why will you not come also?
16865Why? 16865 Why?"
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Why?
16865Will you buy my shoes?
16865Will you do me a kindness, Candlewick?
16865Will you let me drink a little water out of your can?
16865Will you let me see your ears?
16865Will you permit me,said the puppet to the soldiers,"to go and get my cap?"
16865Will you take me to see him?
16865Will you tell me another thing? 16865 Would you be kind enough to give me a little bread?"
16865Would you have the charity, good man, to give a nickel to a poor boy who is yawning for want of food?
16865Would you like to make out of your five miserable sovereigns, a hundred, a thousand, two thousand?
16865You also? 16865 You are right: but what shall we do to get one?"
16865You?
16865Your friend?
16865A little old man appeared at a window with a night- cap on his head and called to him angrily:"What do you want at such an hour?"
16865And as he kissed it he said:"And now, how shall I cook it?
16865And as he wept he said:"Oh, little Fairy, why did you die?
16865And do you know the reason?
16865And do you know what this sea- monster was?
16865And has my papa waited for me?
16865And if the Fairy scolds you?"
16865And instead of two thousand, supposing I found five thousand?
16865And my papa?
16865And now, what are we to do here in the dark?"
16865And now, where shall I find another skin?"
16865And now, who will give me back my good money?"
16865And the coachman?
16865And the matches to light it?
16865And what can I do to deserve it?"
16865And what did they want?"
16865And what fish are you?"
16865And where did you get the candle?
16865And which of your ears hurts you?"
16865And will the Fairy forgive me my bad conduct to her?
16865And you have quite forgiven me, have you not?
16865And you, dear puppet, why have you got on that cotton cap pulled down over your nose?"
16865And you?"
16865And you?"
16865And your papa and your mamma, are they still alive?"
16865And, bending over him, he asked him in asinine language:"Who are you?"
16865And, pretending to have observed nothing, he asked him, smiling:"How are you, my dear Candlewick?"
16865Answer me, for pity''s sake: is he still alive?"
16865Are you coming with us or are you going to remain behind?"
16865Are you going alone or with companions?"
16865Are you not ashamed of being always so punctual and so diligent with your lessons?
16865Are you not ashamed of studying so hard?"
16865At last he said:"Will you give me a dime for this new spelling- book?"
16865At last the puppet said in a soft voice to his companion:"Satisfy my curiosity, my dear Candlewick: have you ever suffered from disease of the ears?"
16865At the sight of the cap Pinocchio felt almost consoled and thought to himself:"Has my friend got the same illness that I have?
16865Besides, supposing I was to come across them here in the road, do you imagine they would frighten me?
16865But do you know that the other night, when you left me alone at the inn, I met with assassins on the road?"
16865But do you know what the master used to say when he talked to me of you?
16865But do you know what was the worst moment for these two wretched boys?
16865But do you not know that in that way you will grow up a perfect donkey, and that every one will make fun of you?"
16865But do you remember the time when you threw the handle of a hammer at me, to drive me from your house?"
16865But how did you manage to grow so fast?"
16865But what am I saying?
16865But when he reached the door he remembered his donkey''s ears, and, feeling ashamed to show them in public, what do you think he did?
16865But whom can I ask?
16865Can I go and see her?"
16865Can anyone be hidden inside it?
16865Can it be the same Dog- Fish that was there when my papa was drowned?"
16865Can we have got the same illness?"
16865Can you guess who they were?
16865Did you say Pinocchio?"
16865Do I dream or am I awake?
16865Do n''t you see?
16865Do you agree?"
16865Do you dare to make game of me?"
16865Do you hear that I talk and reason as you do?"
16865Do you imagine that I would lose the opportunity of tasting such a rare fish?
16865Do you not remember the time when I came downstairs to let you in, and you were caught by your foot, which you had stuck through the house- door?"
16865Do you not think that it may by chance be some old fish who perhaps could show us how to escape?"
16865Do you take me for a craw- fish?
16865Do you understand counting a pulse?"
16865Do you understand?"
16865Do you weigh much?"
16865Does it not grieve you to see me alone and abandoned by everybody?
16865Does she still remember me?
16865Does she still wish me well?
16865Geppetto, seeing himself stared at by those two wooden eyes, said in an angry voice:"Wicked wooden eyes, why do you look at me?"
16865Has he perhaps spoken to you of me?
16865Has she forgiven me?
16865Have we understood each other clearly?"
16865Have you understood?"
16865Having somewhat recovered from his first stupefaction, he asked in a quavering voice:"And the little donkey that I threw into the sea?
16865He asked the stable- boy:"How much do you want for that lame donkey?"
16865He called to it and said:"Oh, little Firefly, will you have pity on me and liberate me from this torture?"
16865He swam until he had no breath left; then he turned his head to Geppetto and said in broken words?
16865He then approached Pinocchio and began to caress him, and amongst other things he asked him:"How did you manage to discover the four thieves?
16865He then asked:"And where did my good friends say they would wait for me?"
16865He then asked:"Is there anything else to be done?"
16865He then said to him:"Why should I make you new feet?
16865He therefore asked her:"What have you done with your paw?"
16865He turned round, and what did he see?
16865Hearing the barking, the peasant jumped out of bed and, taking his gun, he came to the window and asked:"What is the matter?"
16865How can I ever have the courage to go back to my good mamma?
16865How then?
16865How?"
16865I should go to meet them and cry:''Gentlemen assassins, what do you want with me?
16865I will go and dry and warm myself, and then?
16865I wished to study, but Candlewick said to me:''Why should you bother yourself by studying?
16865In less than half an hour twenty other people went by, and Pinocchio asked charity of them all, but they all answered:"Are you not ashamed to beg?
16865In the meanwhile, during the night, the gold piece will grow and flower, and in the morning when you get up and return to the field, what do you find?
16865Is he also suffering from donkey fever?"
16865Is he still alive?
16865Is it possible that this piece of wood can have learned to cry and to lament like a child?
16865Is she afraid that the bats will eat you?"
16865Is she far from here?
16865Meanwhile he was thinking to himself:"And if, instead of a thousand gold pieces, I were to find on the branches of the tree two thousand?
16865Not having so much as a fish- bone to give him, what did my friend, who has really the heart of a CÃ ¦ sar, do?
16865Not knowing its name, the puppet called to it in a loud voice to make himself heard:"Eh, Sir Fish, will you permit me a word with you?"
16865Now that I have lost you and my papa, who will give me food?
16865Now will you come, yes or no?"
16865Or shall I simply boil it?
16865Or would it not be more savory to fry it in the frying- pan?
16865PINOCCHIO THE TALE OF A PUPPET By C COLLODI[ Illustration:"HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO GO IN?"]
16865Pinocchio looked at the tumbler, made a wry face, and then asked in a plaintive voice:"Is it sweet or bitter?"
16865Pinocchio ran all the way to Giangio''s house, and the gardener asked him:"How much milk do you want?"
16865Quite the contrary, my dear master?
16865Seeing the puppet in such grief she asked earnestly:"What has happened to you, my dear fellow- lodger?"
16865Shall I find him at the Fairy''s house?
16865Shall I make an omelet?
16865Shall I tell you what I will do?
16865She called to him:"Who is there at this hour?"
16865Should he go to school?
16865Sir Serpent, but would you be so good as to move a little to one side-- just enough to allow me to pass?"
16865So what do you think he did?
16865Taking it very badly, he said to them angrily:"And now, may I ask what fun you could find in deceiving me with the story of the Dog- Fish?"
16865Tell me, good old man, could you perhaps give me some clothes to return home in?"
16865The director then said to the stable- boy:"What do you suppose I can do with a lame donkey?
16865The father and son were on the point of drowning when they heard a voice like a guitar out of tune saying:"Who is it that is dying?"
16865Then he asked the Cricket:"Tell me, little Cricket, where can I find a tumbler of milk for my poor papa?"
16865Then what are you doing there at the window?"
16865Then what are you?"
16865Then, raising his face and looking at her lovingly, he asked:"Tell me, little mamma: then it was not true that you were dead?"
16865They had gone almost half- way when the Fox, halting suddenly, said to the puppet:"Would you like to double your money?"
16865To enable you, perhaps, to escape again from home?"
16865Turning to Pinocchio, he asked:"Well, what do you want from me?"
16865What do you imagine that I can do here alone in the world?
16865What do you think of it?"
16865What do you think of it?"
16865What had he seen?
16865What has become of him?"
16865What is she doing?
16865What was he to do?
16865What was he to do?
16865What will become of me?
16865What will she say when she sees me?
16865Where can I fly to?
16865Where can he be?
16865Where can respectable people like us find a safe refuge?"
16865Where could happier or more contented boys be found?
16865Where could he search for him?
16865Where could you find a better country for us boys?
16865Where is my poor papa at this moment?"
16865Where is the old dog who lived in this kennel?"
16865Where shall I go to sleep at night?
16865Who gave them to you?"
16865Who goes there?"
16865Who will make me a new jacket?
16865Who wounded him?"
16865Who, then, could it be?
16865Whom, if there is nobody?"
16865Why did I listen to my companions?
16865Why did I not die instead of you, I who am so wicked, whilst you were so good?
16865Why do you not answer?
16865Why do you not come, too?"
16865Why do you not listen to my advice?
16865Why should you go to school?
16865Why will you not go and bury them in the Field of Miracles?"
16865Will nobody come to save me?"
16865Will she forgive me this second escapade?
16865Will you come with us?
16865Will you come with us?"
16865Will you come with us?"
16865Will you take me to him?
16865Will you undertake to turn the pumping machine?"
16865Will you, therefore, allow me to continue my road?"
16865Would it be possible to find a more ungrateful boy, or one with less heart than I have?"
16865Would you like to be fried in the frying- pan, or would you prefer to be stewed with tomato sauce?"
16865Yes or no?
16865You promised me that I should, did you not?"
16865You who swim about the sea all day and all night, have you by chance met a little boat with my papa in it?"
16865[ Illustration: A Little Chicken Popped Out, Very Gay and Polite]"What name shall I give him?"
16865and he said to me,''I will take you,''and I said to him,''How?''
16865and instead I met on the road a Fox and a Cat, who said to me:''Would you like those pieces of gold to become a thousand or two?
16865and instead of five thousand, that I found a hundred thousand?
16865and the echo in the surrounding hills repeated in the distance:"Who goes there?
16865but in what way?"
16865but who will take me to him?''
16865but will you understand that I am not a fish?
16865had you donkeys for school- fellows?
16865how did you ever discover who I was?"
16865how did you manage to burn your feet?"
16865how shall I ever return home?
16865if I also had wings,''and he said to me,''Do you want to go to your father?''
16865is that it?"
16865is that the courteous way in which you make your presents, Master Antonio?
16865no answer?
16865not really?"
16865of that bad companion?"
16865oh!''?
16865or should he go after the fifes?
16865said Pinocchio to the Cat,"why did you treat him so badly?"
16865said the Firefly, stopping and looking at him with compassion;"but how could your legs have been caught by those sharp irons?"
16865said the little man, turning in a flattering manner to Pinocchio,"what do you intend to do?
16865said the little old man, rubbing his eyes;"then you are really my dear Pinocchio?"
16865then who are you?"
16865what shall I do?
16865what will become of me, what will become of me, what will become of me?"
16865where is the master of the house?"
16865you pretend to be deaf, do you?
33547How did you get here?
33547What have you got there, Zinebi?
33547''A_ man_, do you say?''
33547''Ah,''replied the owner of the golden horse,''but who will undertake that you will ever come back?''
33547''All right,''replied the man;''what shall I have to do?''
33547''And have you found her?''
33547''And if she does?''
33547''And my sister?''
33547''And supposing he does?''
33547''And this darning needle?''
33547''And this hatchet?''
33547''And what am I to do?''
33547''And what are we to do?''
33547''And what did the ox say to you?''
33547''And what errand did he send you on?''
33547''And what is the good of the pin you always keep here so carefully?''
33547''And who are you?''
33547''And why are your eyes bandaged?
33547''And you have been travelling for a month, you say?
33547''And you?''
33547''Are you safe?''
33547''Azemi,''he said,''did I not order you to stand no more in my presence?''
33547''But how can I give it you?
33547''But it is so far off-- why not stay here?''
33547''But supposing he does?''
33547''But what is to be done with you?''
33547''But what shall I do when the ogre returns?''
33547''But what will you do with all the cushions and carpets, and beautiful things you bought for your house?''
33547''But what will you eat and drink if you should become hungry and thirsty by the way?''
33547''But where is he?
33547''But where_ shall_ I find her?''
33547''But who made it?''
33547''But who pulled out the nail?''
33547''But why are you vexed?''
33547''But why did she do it?
33547''But why did you kill the ram, instead of one of the sheep?''
33547''But why,''exclaimed Bobino,''does he want me to die?
33547''But why?
33547''But why?''
33547''But, my dear, why should I?
33547''But,''asked the prince,''could I not send a line by the pigeon to tell the princess of my love?''
33547''But,''said the Bassa,''where is the little black pig of which the voice spoke just now?''
33547''By contract?''
33547''Ca n''t we think of some plan for turning out the robbers, and taking possession of the house ourselves?''
33547''Can you give me a pinch of snuff?''
33547''Dear cousin,''she whispered,''what has brought you here?''
33547''Dear daughter,''she cried,''what evil fate has befallen you?''
33547''Dear father, if you are really asleep, why are your eyes always open?''
33547''Did they remember to wind you up at midnight?''
33547''Did you not see me before my transformation?
33547''Did you part company with the man who started with you?''
33547''Do you call_ these_ wonders?''
33547''Do you know the place where you slew him?''
33547''Do you think that is anything wonderful?
33547''Does an ogre really live in this castle?''
33547''Does the man- eater come here every night?''
33547''Donkey Skin?''
33547''Dschemila, what are you doing?
33547''Forgive me, noble lord,''interrupted Sumi,''but what is this mystery?
33547''Has the girl appeared yet?''
33547''Have you sent for"Donkey Skin,"who made me the cake?''
33547''How am I to get in?''
33547''How are you, good old Barka?''
33547''How are you, my unlooked- for Prince?''
33547''How are you?''
33547''How can I be silent, when my ram, which I loved like a child, has been slain by your daughter?''
33547''How can I help looking melancholy when your father has ordered me to make him a pair of boots?
33547''How can the ogre get at you when we are all here?''
33547''How can you know,''they said,''that a band of robbers mean to attack us?
33547''How could any one have come to this desert place?''
33547''How dare you attack those whom the Bassa has taken under his protection?''
33547''How in the world did you guess?''
33547''How much do you want for it?''
33547''How what happened?''
33547''I have got a woman to sell; what will you give me for her?''
33547''I wonder,''said the thief, addressing the stranger,''if you have ever seen a stone swimming?''
33547''I wonder,''said the wolf,''what your father would do if this forest belonged to him?''
33547''If I let you down a cord, can you make it fast under your arms, and climb up?''
33547''If I take you into the town, everyone will laugh, and say,"Is that a new kind of toy you have got?
33547''If that is the case,''said the servant,''you can tell me to what size cauliflower grows in your country?
33547''Is it very heavy to wear?''
33547''Is that Dschemil?''
33547''Is there no way of satisfying these poor things?''
33547''It was not your fault,''replied the Cadi,''you are no magician; and who could guess that the watch must be wound at such an hour?
33547''May all good luck be with you,''said she;''but what has brought you into this land of ogres and horrors?''
33547''Mother,''sobbed Dschemila,''do you really not know your own daughter?''
33547''My son, are you mad?''
33547''No, why should I be anxious?
33547''Now, how could any man get down here?''
33547''Now, how was I to know that my father was lying in that straw, instead of in the kitchen?''
33547''Now, what has happened to upset your happiness, friend puss?''
33547''Oh, I just wanted to know; and how could anyone find me out here?''
33547''Oh, did n''t I?''
33547''Oh, master, said I not well that your dog would eat my thong?''
33547''Oh, monster,''cried Toupette, bursting into tears,''is that all the comfort you can give me?''
33547''Oh, then, you have fairies, too?''
33547''Oh, what can I do for you?''
33547''Oh, where is she?
33547''Open your mouth, and let me see,''The girl did as she was told, and then the cat said''Why did you not give me half?''
33547''Poison?''
33547''Shall I explain to you what he is saying?''
33547''Shall I explain to you?''
33547''Shall I tell you the truth?''
33547''Surely the princess is beautiful enough to please anyone?''
33547''Tell me, who painted you over like this?''
33547''Then what am I to do?''
33547''Then what must I do?''
33547''Then,''continued the ogre,''what has brought you to my house to- day for the first time?''
33547''Three daughters have I lost, and two generals, and shall I lose you also?''
33547''Unhappy Izouf,''she murmured,''why do you suffer yourself to be led into such dangerous adventures?
33547''Well, brother,''said the donkey,''what''s the matter with you?
33547''Well, greyhead, what do you see?''
33547''Well, what do you mean to do with me?''
33547''Well, what is it?''
33547''Well, what is it?''
33547''Well, why do you want to know?''
33547''What are her two scars then?''
33547''What are you crying for?''
33547''What are you doing wandering about my castle?''
33547''What are you doing?''
33547''What are you dreaming about, Prince?''
33547''What are you eating?''
33547''What are you staring at so?''
33547''What are you staring at?''
33547''What brings you here, Udea?''
33547''What can be the matter with the beast?''
33547''What did it say, Dschemila?''
33547''What did it say, Dschemila?''
33547''What did she do it for?
33547''What did you say?''
33547''What do you mean by letting the fire burn so low?''
33547''What do you mean?''
33547''What do you think of doing?''
33547''What do you want?''
33547''What have you done with her?''
33547''What in the world has happened?''
33547''What in the world is the matter with you?''
33547''What is he doing here?''
33547''What is it?''
33547''What is it?''
33547''What is it?''
33547''What is it?''
33547''What is that you say?''
33547''What is the matter, little girl?
33547''What is the matter?
33547''What is the matter?''
33547''What is the use of waiting, if it must be done?''
33547''What is your case?''
33547''What service have you done me?''
33547''What shall I do?''
33547''What shall we do?''
33547''What wages do you give?''
33547''What was I to do?''
33547''What will you eat and drink if you should become hungry and thirsty by the way?''
33547''What,''exclaimed one,''are the sorrows of lovers to us?
33547''When did you come back?''
33547''When did you come back?''
33547''Whence do you come, and whither do you go?''
33547''Where are my mother and sister?''
33547''Where are you going, Prunella?''
33547''Where are you going, brother?''
33547''Where are you?''
33547''Where did you meet him?''
33547''Where have you buried him?''
33547''Where have you come from?''
33547''Where is my supper, and is it you who have opened the upper chamber?''
33547''Where?''
33547''Where?''
33547''Which one was that?''
33547''Which way did you come?''
33547''Who are you,''she asked,''and how do you know my name?''
33547''Who are you?''
33547''Who are you?''
33547''Who are you?''
33547''Who comes there?''
33547''Why are you weeping?''
33547''Why did you marry a serpent?''
33547''Why did you not speak of them before?''
33547''Why did you put the fire out?''
33547''Why do you ask that, Dschemila?
33547''Why do you look so melancholy, my handsome Prince?''
33547''Why do you not eat too?''
33547''Why do you try to steal my vine?''
33547''Why do you want to know?''
33547''Why has the ogre not eaten her?''
33547''Why not?''
33547''Why should I stay here?''
33547''Why should he bark at me like that, when he knows me quite well?''
33547''Why should you wish me harm,''asked the raven, pausing in his flight,''when I have done you a service?''
33547''Why, how in the world could any man get down here?''
33547''Why, what difference does it make?''
33547''Will you come with me?''
33547''Will you give me a kiss if I tell you?''
33547''Will you hold your tongue with your explanations?''
33547''Will you listen to what I have to say, my brothers?''
33547''Yes, I know,''said she,''but how can you go on caring for a person who is as old and plain as I?''
33547''Yes, why not?''
33547''Yes, why not?''
33547''You have not been anxious?''
33547''You see these two roads?
33547''Zelida,''said the stranger,''was I not quite right when I told you that I should bring back a friend to sup with us?''
33547A burst of laughter was the only answer, and the voice continued,''What have I done to earn such contempt?
33547A few minutes after the crowing was heard again, and the voice of the witch demanding''Which one was that?''
33547Am I to be tied to a goat all my life?
33547An ogre or an ogress must have snapped her up, and how can you expect to find her?''
33547And Mohammed touched him on the arm, and spoke:''Dear uncle, did I not warn you never to take service under any blue- eyed red- haired man?''
33547And a maiden looked out of a window and said,"Are you a ghost or a man?"
33547And as they parted, the prince said to his guest,''You will not forget the bargain we have made?''
33547And he called through them''Oh Udea, what did you see your grandfather doing?''
33547And how dare you address me in such a way?''
33547And how dare you not make me a deeper curtsy?''
33547And on the morning of the fourth day the eldest brother said,''Dear father, would you like to hear our adventures?''
33547And the king asked him:''Well, is it true about the hops?''
33547And the people came running fast, saying:''What has happened?
33547And the stranger remembered his message and said:''Is there a man here named"Dschemil"?
33547And they replied,''How should we not hear you?
33547And this caused her to be so long away that the Sunball asked her, when she came back:''Eh, Letiko, where have you been so long?''
33547And throughout all the kingdom nothing else was spoken about, and all the people said:''Who can the hero be who has fought for us in so many battles?
33547And when the man- eater came, and called as usual,''Udea, what did you see your grandfather doing?''
33547And whoever heard of a bridegroom with a black hand?
33547And why do you make all this fuss?
33547Antonio greeted him cordially, and said:''My friend, will you kindly take care of this stick for me?
33547Are you not our father as well as our brother?''
33547As he was trotting along the road he met a sparrow, who stopped him and said:''Brother, why do you look so sad?''
33547At last, one night, he began to weep, and cried:''Oh, what have I done, that I should have to perform such hateful tasks?''
33547At the end of a few minutes he said to his companions,''Do you know what those sparrows are saying?
33547At these words the Bassa rent his robe for joy, and embracing Neangir, he cried,''Oh, my son, my son, have I found you at last?
33547Both Cornichon and Toupette were equally dear to her, and how could she favour one at the cost of the other?
33547But Dschemil had heard, and came forward and said:''What did you see?
33547But he replied:''How can I eat till I know what has become of them?''
33547But may not the Book of Spells teach us how to deliver Ibrahim also?''
33547But she laughed at it, and called to him:''And you grieve over that?
33547But tell me, O wise Sumi, where I can find the last of the accursed race who has brought this doom on my son?''
33547But tell us, how came you here?''
33547But the people only answered the louder:''Are you deaf?
33547But what do you think of the lover you have captivated?''
33547But when the poor woman caught sight of her daughter, she shrieked, and exclaimed,''Are you making fun of me?
33547But why do you ask all these questions?
33547But why do your eyes kindle with the flames they shot forth on that fearful day?
33547But you, my brother, how did you get here?''
33547But, why should I blame my father?
33547Could you kindly tell me how far it is from here to the place where I wish to go?''
33547Curious to know the reason he said to him:''Why are you so sad?
33547Did n''t you boast you were very sharp?
33547Did n''t you tell me to do what I liked?''
33547Do you consider yourself a soothsayer or a magician?''
33547Do you know what has become of the princess?''
33547Do you mean to say you never thought of that?
33547Do you not come from the house of Mohammed and Zinebi?''
33547Do you see her?''
33547Do you see that nest up there on the top of that pine- tree?
33547Do you want to deal treacherously with me?''
33547Does he take me for a shoemaker?''
33547Does the king imagine that I am going to comb and feed a dog with my own hands?''
33547For three days they travelled from sunrise to sunset, then the stranger said:''Dschemil?''
33547Had he been mistaken after all?
33547Hardly a day passed without his mother saying to him;''What are you doing, you useless creature?
33547Have I come among a lot of lunatics?
33547Have you anything to sell?''
33547Have you quarrelled with anyone, or has the poor donkey fallen down?''
33547Have you seen some travellers on horseback pass this way?''
33547He stretched himself out comfortably, and was almost asleep, when he heard a voice calling to him softly:''Are you a ghost,''it said,''or a man?''
33547He took it down to examine it, and nearly let it fall with surprise when a voice came from the purse saying:''What commands have you?''
33547Her eyes flashed, as in furious tones she asked her,''Did you meet Bensiabel?''
33547How can I see her?''
33547How can you explain what the sparrows say?
33547How could I, and what would be the use of it?''
33547How did he learn those odd tricks?''
33547How did she die?''
33547How have they died?''
33547How should you be able to overtake them?''
33547How were they to know which of the three roads the fugitives had taken?
33547How will you know which way to go?''
33547I have not offended you, I hope?''
33547I inquired,"and what has happened to you since we parted?"
33547I suppose all men are not like him?''
33547If their fate happened to be in your hands, would you not do all in your power to restore them to happiness and liberty?''
33547In the evening the ogre saw him there and said to him,''Jew, what are you doing here?
33547Is it likely that he keeps a maiden in his upper chamber?''
33547Is it so large that one head fills twelve water- tubs?''
33547Is she the only maiden in the world?
33547Is this the reward I have a right to expect when I have bestowed on you the little black pig, who is certain to bring you good luck?''
33547It was quite clear that the little black pig must be dead-- but how, and when?
33547May she not be a friend in disguise?
33547Moscione felt so sorry for them, that he said:''My dear friends, how can you endure working so hard in heat that would cook an egg in a minute?''
33547Now, which of these keys is the better?''
33547One day an old woman came to his wife and said:''What use is all your prosperity to you when you have no children?''
33547One day when they were sitting at supper, the boy said to Theodorus,''Father, why do you look so sad?
33547Shall it be wisdom, strength, long life, riches, health, or beauty?
33547She went up to the eldest girl, and said:''Where shall I begin on you, you fat bolster?''
33547So she drew them on, and she walked to the moon, and she said:''Dear moon, have you not seen the white wolf?''
33547So she went to the sun, and said:''Dear sun, have you seen the white wolf?''
33547So the witch gobbled her up, and when the last scrap had disappeared, she came to the second and asked:''Where shall I begin on you, my fat bolster?''
33547So they all three sat down to the table, but before they helped themselves the boy said,''I am thirsty, mother; will you get me some milk?''
33547Surely, even in this desert there must be some spring?''
33547The man jumped up at once and was about to start, when the maiden spoke again:''Tell me, where you are going?''
33547The master came running and asked,''What is the matter?''
33547The merchant looked at his son in astonishment, and answered:''What can you mean?
33547The next morning the Fairest in the Land sent for the old woman and asked her,''Who is it that lives with you, and plays the zither so well?''
33547The next night he said to her,''Dear wife, are you afraid that something dreadful will happen if you speak to me?
33547The ogre moved sleepily, and asked,''What did the meat say, Dschemila?''
33547The youth was called, and Moscione asked him:''What''s your name; where do you come from, and what can you do?''
33547Then Bensurdatu turned to her, and said:''And if I were Bensurdatu, would you give the same answer to me?''
33547Then Dschemil turned to his family and said:''Is this true?
33547Then he sent them away, and called two hares to him, and said:''Will you take Letiko home to her mother?''
33547Then he turned to her and said:''I wonder what your father would do if this forest belonged to him?''
33547Then he turned to one of the crowd who had gathered round him, and asked:''Where have they buried her?''
33547Then he went home, called two foxes to him, and said:''Will you take Letiko home?''
33547Then his dog came to him and said,''O, sleeper, are you having pleasant dreams?
33547Then his wife called out:''Shall I wring her neck?''
33547Then she asked him:''Well, brother, are you satisfied?''
33547Then she called to him:''Why are you so cast down this evening, that you do not play on your zither?''
33547Then she stole back to her cousin, and asked,''But how are we to get out?''
33547Then she walked through the air till she reached a star, and she said:''Tell me, star, have you seen the white wolf?''
33547Then the animals said,''Who can we trust to mount guard now?''
33547Then the maiden was called, and she came out of her hiding place, and went up to the Jew, saying,''Where have you come from, Jew?''
33547Then the man came up and said to Mohammed:''What was the matter?
33547Then, trembling, Prunella knocked on the wall and whispered:''Bensiabel, Bensiabel, tell me, which cock crowed?''
33547Then, when he was almost fainting, a stranger met him and said,''Will you work for me?''
33547This time she found an old man at the door of the fairy''s palace, who said to her:''Who are you, and what do you want?''
33547Thus she again remained so long away that the Sunball asked her:''Eh, Letiko, why have you remained so long away?''
33547To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?
33547Toupette had taken her place, but where was the bridegroom?
33547Towards sunset he woke up and said to the old woman:''Where are the singing birds which you have got to catch?''
33547Udea did not answer, but went home to her mother and asked her,''Have I really got brothers?''
33547Was this what you promised me when I managed to get for you the talismans of beauty?
33547Well, did you see anything remarkable?''
33547What am I to do, and how in the world am I to get out of the difficulty?''
33547What are we to say to the man to whom Dschemila is betrothed?
33547What does the ogre want with me?''
33547What evil have I done him, or what fault have I committed that he should wish to bring about my death?''
33547What harm have I ever done to you?''
33547What have you done?
33547What ill fate has brought him here?''
33547What is there in the whole world that we would not do for you?''
33547What is there to frighten me?''
33547What matter if we anticipate our decay, if we only anticipate our happiness too?''
33547What they meant by these words I know not, but perhaps you can tell us?"
33547What, may I ask, has brought you to this pass?''
33547When Renzolla heard his question she answered angrily:''Do n''t you know me, old Goat- beard?
33547When did I ever give birth to an ass?''
33547When his wife had heard all he had to say, she said to him:''How do you know, my dear husband, that the lizard is really our enemy?
33547When she came home the Sunball asked her again:''Eh, Letiko, why do you come home so late?''
33547When the dog had finished the second piece of meat, the sparrow asked him:''Brother, have you had enough now?''
33547When the feast was over the stranger went away'', and the king asked Cannetella:''Well, what did you think of the youth?''
33547When they could both speak, he said:''My sister, were you by when they killed my mother?''
33547When they got back, the son said to his mother:''That is a good shepherd I''ve got, is n''t he?''
33547Which of you shall I touch first?''
33547Who is holding me?''
33547Who is there to tell my husband what I do?
33547Who shall be our next watchman?
33547Who told you so?''
33547Why did you ask me here?
33547Why did you force me to drink this dangerous liquid which has set fire to my blood?
33547Why did you leave me?
33547Why do n''t you take up music as a profession and come along with me?
33547Why do those odious sharks let him come near the tower?
33547Why do you heap such humiliations upon me?
33547Why have you shown me this picture which has almost deprived me of reason?''
33547Why should not we have our share?
33547Will you give me a kiss, if I fill your basket?''
33547Would it not be better if I fed them every day?''
33547Would you draw down on you by imprudence the fate of your unhappy sisters?''
33547You are thinking how you would be able to kill me?
33547[ Illustration: MY UNCLE IS COMING]''Where is he?''
33547[ Illustration: THE GUARDIANS CAUGHT NAPPING]''Get up, get up, Quickeye, and tell me where is the princess?''

33547and did you not watch it happen under your very eyes, when the ogre bewitched me?''
33547and is Dschemila not dead at all, but simply stolen from her home?''
33547and where are you taking me?''
33547answered she,''and what do you call our lost beauty and the dreadful future before us?
33547asked the prince,''and what can you do?''
33547asked the prince,''and what can you do?''
33547asked the princess,''and can you find the body?''
33547cried she,"is it thus that you have followed the counsels of your father?
33547cried the king,''who is it you want to marry?
33547demanded he;''and how did you manage to get past the guards?''
33547exclaimed the queen, who thought her son had gone mad;''and who or what is that?''
33547exclaimed the rest;''how can the ogre get hold of her?''
33547he said to himself,''put the hempen halter on an animal like that?
33547if there are, I do n''t suppose I shall ever see them or they me, so what is the use?
33547is it you, my dear Siroco?''
33547it said,''is this the way you treat me?
33547said Zambac,''do you forget that this is the hour when Hassan weeps on his hand, and Ibrahim gathers up his coral beads?''
33547said the master;''are the animals far off?''
33547said they,''and have you found Dschemila?''
33547she exclaimed,"what snare have you laid for me?"
33547they said to the negro;''and how comes it that we never knew that we had a sister till now?''
33547why did nobody warn me?''
33547wilt thou make me burst with misery?''
33547wilt thou make me burst with misery?''
33547wilt thou make me burst with misery?''
33547you were afraid of the children of Herr Lazarus?
52309Is this a fancy of mine? 52309 Where did you get these?"
52309Where would you go? 52309 Why should you make way with yourself?
52309***** When he had told this story, the goblin asked:"O King, which of them was the most delicate?"
52309***** When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, when the king was so happy, why should the counsellor''s heart break?
52309***** When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, who murdered the Brahman?
52309***** When the goblin had told this story on the road in the night, he said:"O King, which was the most foolish among those who died for love?
52309***** When the goblin had told this story, he asked King Triple- victory:"O King, which of all these was the most worthy?
52309***** When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, when they were mingled in this way, which should be her husband?
52309***** When the goblin had told this strange story, he asked the king:"O King, why did the boy laugh at the moment of death?
52309A star- gazer and a chariot- maker work for other people, do they not?"
52309And Calamity seemed to be looking on, thinking:"Whom shall I embrace?"
52309And Cloud- banner said:"My son, I only want the kingdom for you, and if you give it up from benevolent motives, what good is it to me?
52309And Hero was amazed, and timidly asked her:"Who are you, and why do you weep?"
52309And King Shudraka saw all this and went back without being seen himself, and climbed to the roof, and called:"Who is there at the gate?"
52309And again the king thought to test his behaviour, and climbing to the roof he called out toward the palace gate:"Who is there?"
52309And as he walked along, the goblin on his shoulder said to him again:"O King, why do you take such pains for that wretched monk?
52309And as soon as the counsellor was refreshed, the king said:"Counsellor, why did you leave us?
52309And as to his knowledge of the speech of beasts and birds, of what practical use is it?
52309And he also thought:''Why does this girl reject kings and fall in love with a thief like me?
52309And he asked her:"What does it mean, dearest?
52309And he ran between them and spoke again to the agitated bird:"O Garuda, what madness is this?
52309And he thought:"If I am born a prince, why am I so poor?
52309And he thought:"Who is this who laments so piteously, as if in deep despair?
52309And he wondered:"Oh, where has my wife gone?
52309And her mother and father were surprised and asked her:"Why did you come back so soon, and in this condition?"
52309And how can you blame either or both of the charitable people who gave food to a guest who arrived unexpectedly?
52309And if I am to be poor, why did God give me so many desires?
52309And if this is a usual occurrence at sea, why do not other goddesses arise?"
52309And she thought:"Who can he be in this forest?
52309And the concealed thief saw it all and thought:"What has the wicked woman done?
52309And the counsellor''s son said to the old woman:"Old woman, do you know anybody named Bite in this city?"
52309And the goblin on his shoulder saw that he was silent and said:"O King, why are you so obstinate?
52309And the goblin spoke to him again:"O King, why do you go to such pains in this cemetery at night?
52309And the hermit said:"My boy, what is this wailing we hear?
52309And the king fell in love with her and thought:"Who is she?
52309And the king respectfully asked her:"My good girl, what happy family does your friend adorn?
52309And the king said:"What can I say?
52309And the king said:"Why are you so sad, my dear?
52309And the king thought:"Ah, what does this mean?
52309And the loud shouts of angry gamblers seemed to suggest the question:"Who is there that would not be fleeced here, were he the god of wealth himself?"
52309And the prince mounted his father''s judgment throne, and when he had heard the cause of the quarrel, he asked the thrush:"How are men ungrateful?
52309And the princess trusted him and said after a little hesitation:"My dear girl, why should I not trust you?
52309And the spell appeared in bodily form, and said:"What shall I do?"
52309And then she spoke to Sandal with words punctuated by smiles:"My dear, why do you not show hospitality to the fairy prince?
52309And what child would give his body?"
52309And what did you fall into?"
52309And what good is a Brahman who neglects his own affairs and turns magician, despising real courage?
52309And what good is there except helping others?
52309And what is this hermit garb?
52309And when he saw that he had come there so suddenly, he thought:"Oh, what does it mean?
52309And when he saw that the culprit was dressed like a hermit, he asked him very gently:"Holy sir, where did you get this pearl necklace?
52309And when the king saw him following, he spoke lovingly:"My good man, do you perhaps know the way we came?"
52309And when the monk came the next day, he asked him:"Monk, why do you keep honouring me in such an expensive way?
52309And where are they now?
52309And where are you going?"
52309And where did you come?
52309And where did you stay?
52309And why should feet fit to saunter in a court, press this thorny ground?
52309Are men bad, or women?
52309Are the crows to blame when the geese eat up the rice?"
52309Are you not aware that I am a connoisseur in food?
52309At that moment a serving- maid came into the room and said to the king:"Your Majesty, why have you come into the jaws of death?
52309Besides, what nonsense are you talking?"
52309Besides, you have surely heard what the poet says:''What fool would go into a house?
52309But Cloud- chariot said to his father:"Father, how can you take your weapons and fight?
52309But Fierce- lion said:"My son, what do you mean?
52309But after all, who can understand the strange workings of stern necessity?
52309But her father said:"What do you mean, my daughter?
52309But his parents immediately said:"Son, what are you saying?
52309But presently she rose, lamenting for the pair so unexpectedly dead, and thought:"What is my life good for now?"
52309But the goblin said:"How could it be the king''s fault?
52309But the goblin said:"Why not Hero, the like of whom as a servant is not to be found in the whole world?
52309But when the eldest said this, the two younger said:"Sir, if you feel disgust, why should n''t we?"
52309But while he reflected, Cloud- chariot said:"O king of birds, why do you stop?
52309Can women be so dreadful as this?
52309Did he weep or laugh?_ 117 14.
52309Did he weep or laugh?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started.
52309Did you understand the signs I made, or was it the counsellor''s son?"
52309Do you not know that money is uncertain as an autumn cloud?
52309Do you not know this, you who know things above and things below?
52309Do you not see how gentle his appearance is?"
52309Do you not see that I have the hood and the forked tongue?
52309Do you not see the home of the ghosts, full of dreadful creatures, terrible in the night, wrapped in darkness as in smoke?
52309Do you not see the rock of sacrifice wet with the blood of serpents, the terrible plaything of Death?
52309Have you no sense about this fruitless task?
52309Have you the rheumatism?
52309He thought:"Is she the goddess of love, plucking the spring flowers in person?
52309He went himself to see Good, and asked him soothingly:"What does this mean?
52309How about generosity and that kind of thing?
52309How can I comfort it?
52309How can I do such a wicked thing?
52309How can I find her?
52309How can I partake of such a meal?"
52309How can I save him from the king?
52309How can I touch this loathsome thing?"
52309How can a good counsellor be happy when his master devotes himself to a vice?
52309How can he live then?
52309How can it bear the pangs of being eaten by Garuda?
52309How could I be mad enough to eat a future Buddha?
52309How could a man in my position overlook such a transgression?
52309How could a teacher with such powers promise falsely?
52309How could a warrior''s daughter be given to a working- man, a weaver?
52309How could he be so mean as to beg Garuda to destroy his own race?
52309How could this woman have a goaty smell?"
52309How could you bring yourself to do so harsh and loveless a thing?
52309How could you do this thoughtless thing?"
52309How did you come to this inaccessible under- world?
52309How much less in the case of others?
52309How shall I find another such master?
52309How shall I live without you?"
52309If I should transgress, who would be virtuous?
52309If not, why do you talk nonsense?
52309If the counsellor is lost, the fundamental principle is lost; how then can virtue be preserved?
52309In this strange world who else is so brave as that, to give his son, his family, and his life for his king?
52309Is it good manners to enter the heart of an innocent girl by force, steal her thoughts, and run away?
52309Is n''t it possible to prepare for heaven in your own house?"
52309Is she a goddess come to bathe in these waters?
52309Is she angry with me?
52309Is there no other kind of virtue except in pilgrimages?
52309Is this a dream, or an illusion?"
52309Is this hermit manners, to run away?"
52309Just then the thief came up and said to the king''s men:"Why do you kill this man without any good reason?
52309Or Gauri, separated from her husband Shiva, leading a hard life to win him again?
52309Or a dream?
52309Or an illusion?
52309Or are you possessed by a devil?
52309Or from sorrow because the king came back, and he could no longer act as king?
52309Or how can Garuda, the heavenly bird, do such a crime?
52309Or is she a forest goddess, come here to worship the spring- time?"
52309Or is she playing hide- and- seek with me, to see how I will take it?"
52309Or the favour of the goddess?"
52309Or the lovely moon, taking a human form, and trying to be attractive in the daytime?
52309Or to a farmer, either?
52309Or why at her age does she torture a body as delicate as a flower with a hermit''s life in a lonely wood?"
52309Or why is not the boy Trusty the most worthy, who showed such wonderful manhood when only a little boy?
52309Or why should not his wife receive the most praise, who did not waver when she saw her son killed like a beast before her eyes?
52309Otherwise, why did the fire seem cool to you?
52309Shall I go into the fire, or go home?
52309So Spotless went and saw how his son was acting, and said:"My son, why should you be downcast?
52309So at night he climbed to the palace roof and cried:"Who is there at the gate?"
52309So how can I touch it?"
52309So now I say: What good is life to me without my children?
52309So now why should I want to live alone?
52309So the eldest brother straightway plucked up heart, and said:"What virtue is it which we should acquire?"
52309So the king knew that a goblin lived in it, and said without fear:"What are you laughing about?
52309So what shall I do now?"
52309The brave man said:"If I had not killed the giant in the fight, who would have saved her in spite of all your pains?
52309The wise man said:"If I had not discovered her by my wisdom, how could you have found her hiding- place?
52309Then Cloud- chariot asked one of her friends:"My good girl, what is your friend''s sweet name?
52309Then a voice cried from heaven:"O Hero, who else is devoted to his master as you are?
52309Then she slowly spoke:"Who are you, sir?
52309Then the chief of police went and asked him:"Holy sir, how did this pearl necklace come into your pupil''s hand?"
52309Then the counsellor''s son said:"Did you not see all that she hinted with her signs?
52309Then the goblin said reproachfully:"O King, why was not the general better?
52309Then the king broke silence and said:"Who did the murder?
52309Then the younger brothers said to him:"Sir, why is an intelligent man sad for lack of money?
52309There he saw great heaps of bones, and he asked Friend- wealth:"What creatures did these heaps of bones belong to?"
52309Therefore, as you are a wise man, tell us what you mean by embracing this dead body?"
52309To which should the girl be given?_ 51 6.
52309To which should the girl be given?_ 81 10.
52309To which should the girl be given?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started.
52309Was his wife his or the other man''s?_ 125 15.
52309Was it from grief because he did not win the fairy himself?
52309Was not Rama forced to abandon his good wife by popular clamour?
52309Was the night jealous of your beauty; did she carry you away?
52309What advantage would it be to you if all the serpents were slain at once?"
52309What are the syllables of her name, which must be a delight to the ear?
52309What could she do, poor woman?
52309What do you mean by your hour for begging?
52309What does the question mean?
52309What family does she adorn?"
52309What fool would begin a thing and then stop?"
52309What good would life be to us otherwise?"
52309What happiness is there in a life of constant mourning for your children?
52309What high- minded man would want a kingdom after killing his relatives just for the sake of this wretched, perishable body?
52309What is it to them, or they to it?
52309What is the use of throwing him into a well now?
52309What madness is this?
52309What might she not do next?"
52309What need of more words?
52309What rights have you in my wife?
52309What shall I do?"
52309What will happen now, when he loves a fairy?
52309What will holy men not do out of regard to those who seek aid?
52309What would my father say if he saw me now, or any relative, or any friend?
52309When Hero heard this, he was frightened and said:"Goddess, is there any remedy for this, any way in which the king might be saved?"
52309When Lotus- lake saw that terrible fall, he cried:"Oh, what does it mean?"
52309When so good a wife is gone, how could I think of another?"
52309When the counsellor was rested, the merchant asked him:"Who are you?
52309When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, which of these two deserves more credit for plunging into the sea?"
52309When the king saw this, he took it and asked the treasurer:"Where have you been keeping the fruits which the monk brought?
52309Whence do you come?
52309Where can I find such a sacrifice for the giant?
52309Where did you go?
52309Where has the great being been carried by my enemy?
52309Where is that heavenly garden?
52309Where is the great man?
52309Where shall I go now, naked and dusty as I am?
52309Where shall I see you again?
52309Which are worse, men or women?_ 25 4.
52309Which are worse, men or women?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin.
52309Which combination of head and body is her husband?_ 57 7.
52309Which is the cleverest?_ 75 9.
52309Which is the more deserving?_ 63 8.
52309Which is the more deserving?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started.
52309Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ 135 16.
52309Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ So the king walked along with the goblin.
52309Which is the more worthy?_ 157 17.
52309Which is the more worthy?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started.
52309Which is the most delicate?_ 87 11.
52309Which is the most delicate?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder once more, and started toward the monk.
52309Which is to blame when he kills them all?_ 197 21.
52309Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ 37 5.
52309Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree and caught the goblin, who gave a horse- laugh.
52309Which of these are you?
52309Which of these are you?
52309Which was the more self- sacrificing, Cloud- chariot or Shell- crest?
52309Which was the most foolish?_ 187 20.
52309Which was the most foolish?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, took the goblin on his shoulder, and set out in haste.
52309Who can she be?"
52309Who could expect a good result from creating a bad- tempered creature?
52309Who is to blame for his death?_ 109 13.
52309Who is to blame for his death?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started as before.
52309Who killed the Brahman?
52309Who will save my son?"
52309Who would break a promise that had been made solemnly?
52309Who would sacrifice his child for money?
52309Who would save a common stone at the cost of a pearl?
52309Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ 5 2.
52309Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ There is a city called Benares where Shiva lives.
52309Whose wife is she?
52309Whose wife should she be?
52309Whose wife should she be?_ 19 3.
52309Whose wife should she be?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin.
52309Why did he fail to win the magic spell?_ 163 18.
52309Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ 173 19.
52309Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started in silence.
52309Why did he weep and dance?_ 203 22.
52309Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ 91 12.
52309Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ Then the king went as before to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started back.
52309Why did the Creator and the serpent- king choose my only son from the broad serpent- world, and seize upon him?"
52309Why did they lose their magic, when everything had been done according to precept?"
52309Why did you not save me?"
52309Why do we keep such a wishing- tree for the sake of transient blessings?
52309Why do you not seize her?"
52309Why do you say that King Shudraka was the best among them?"
52309Why do you urge me to a sin which is pleasant for the moment, but causes great sorrow in the next world?
52309Why do you vainly try to comfort me?"
52309Why do you work so hard and grow weary for the sake of that monk?
52309Why does that magic goblin keep wasting my time?
52309Why does the fruit of the poison- tree of sin taste sweet?"
52309Why have you come into this lonely wood?
52309Why have you killed my husband and my brother at one fell swoop?
52309Why insist on more?
52309Why not trust a loving, innocent girl like me?
52309Why not?"
52309Why seek the pains of hell by suicide?''
52309Why should I deceive an honourable man, especially as your noble character has made me feel like a servant?
52309Why should I not please the goddess by sacrificing myself?"
52309Why should I not win her favour by sacrificing myself?"
52309Why spend your time in such an evil pursuit?"
52309Why then delay?
52309Why then do you uselessly kill the wild beasts?
52309Why torture me yet more?
52309[ Illustration:"Shall I go into the fire or go home?"]

708''But you still think the lode does come through into our house?''
708''But, Curdie,''said his mother,''why should n''t you go with the king?
708''By came a birdie:"Goblin, what do you do?"
708''Can you tell me what I am spinning?''
708''Did n''t I tell you the first was from upstairs?''
708''Did n''t she speak as if she saw those other things herself, Curdie?''
708''Did she die very soon?
708''Did you expect me to believe you, princess?''
708''Do n''t see my grandmother, when I''m sitting in her lap?''

708''Does it, Lootie?''
708''Had n''t we better be moving?

708''Have you, indeed, my boy?''
708''How can that be?''

708''How do you get your dinner, then?''
708''How far on have you got?''
708''How is it that I can, then?
708''How long will it take?''
708''How should I feed them, though?''
708''I wonder, Lootie''--that was her pet name for her nurse--''what pigeons''eggs taste like?''
708''Is it because you have your crown on that you look so young?''
708''Is it long since you came?
708''Is it naughty of Lootie, then?''
708''Is that what makes your hair so white?''
708''Is this all your spinning, grandmother?''
708''Just as bad to say nothing at all as to tell stories?''
708''Might n''t I stay and sleep with you tonight, grandmother?''
708''Nor the blue bed?
708''Now, Curdie,''said the king,''what does it mean?
708''Now,''insisted Irene,''you will come and see my grandmother-- won''t you?''
708''Nursie,''said the princess,''why wo n''t you believe me?''
708''Please, Mrs Housekeeper,''said the princess,''will you take me to your room, and keep me till my king- papa comes?
708''Please, am I to keep it?''
708''Please, king- papa,''she said,''Will you tell me where I got this pretty ring?
708''Sha n''t we, king- papa?''
708''Shall I see if we can manage that?''
708''That reminds me-- there is one thing that puzzles me,''said the princess:''how are you to get the thread out of the mountain again?
708''Then how was it?
708''Then if you do n''t know what I mean, what right have you to call it nonsense?''
708''Then what can be the matter with your finger?

708''What can that noise be?''
708''What did they want there?
708''What did you have for breakfast this morning?''
708''What did you see?''
708''What difference does that make?''
708''What do they do to him?''
708''What do you mean by that?''
708''What do you mean?''
708''What does that matter?''

708''Why not?''
708''Why were n''t you in your workroom when we came up, grandmother?''
708''Why, child?''
708''Why, how ever did you come here, Irene?''
708''Why, please?''
708''Why, what do you mean?''
708''Why, what else could he be?''
708''Why, what have you been doing with your eyes, child?''
708''Why, what''s the matter?''
708''Why, who are you?''
708''Why?''
708''Will you be quiet, then?''
708''Will you give me an egg to eat?
708''Without her shoes?''
708''Wo n''t you hold it to my frock and my hands and my face?
708''Wo n''t you, Curdie?''
708''Would you like to sleep with me?''
708''You confess, my boy,''she said,''there is something about the whole affair you do not understand?''
708''You do n''t mean you''ve got the thread there?''
708''You do n''t think I''m doubting my own mother?''
708''You will let me take you to see my dear old great big grandmother, wo n''t you?''
708''You wo n''t be afraid, then, to go to bed with such an old woman?''
708''You wo n''t come up and see my huge, great, beautiful grandmother, then, king- papa?''
708''You''re not afraid of the rose-- are you?''
708''You''re not coming, are you?''
708After the king had eaten and drunk he turned to the princess and said, stroking her hair:''Now, my child, what shall we do next?''
708And he was prowling about, was he?
708And what am I to say to her when she asks me where I have been?''
708Are n''t you glad you''ve got him out?''
708Are the eggs nice?''
708Are you all smelling very sweet this morning?
708Are you fifty?''
708But how was she to find her way back?
708But what could he do?
708But why should I be there rather than in this beautiful room?''
708CHAPTER 4 What the Nurse Thought of It''Why, where can you have been, princess?''
708Can you believe it?
708Could his string have led him wrong?
708Could it be that the thread was leading him home to his mother''s cottage?
708Could it be the rain?
708Could it be--?
708Could it really be that an old lady lived up in the top of the house, with pigeons and a spinning- wheel, and a lamp that never went out?
708Could the princess be there?
708Did n''t the air agree with her?''
708Did you?
708Do n''t you see that funny man peeping over the rock?''
708Do n''t you smell the roses?
708Do you see a slab laid up against the wall?''
708Do you see that bath behind you?''
708Does he, nursie?''
708Does it not, Harelip?''
708Finding no change on the other side,''Shall I ever get back?''
708Had n''t you a handkerchief to wipe your eyes with?''
708How could the king have fallen in love with her?''
708How much wiser will you be then?''
708How was it?''
708I know I''ve had it a long time, but where did I get it?
708Is this what you expected?''
708It was your lamp I saw-- wasn''t it?''
708It''s prettier than anything I ever saw, except those-- of all colours- in your-- Please, is that your crown?''
708May n''t I call this my home?''
708Nor the rose- coloured counterpane?--Nor the beautiful light, like the moon, hanging from the roof?''
708Or was it today, because it was so wet that I could n''t get out?''
708Please will you take me back to her?''
708Shall I carry your little Highness?''
708Shall I go in first?''
708Shall I take you in my arms?''
708She did take you out, and she must have had something to guide her: why not a thread as well as a rope, or anything else?
708Sir Walter, will you take charge of me?''
708Surely you wo n''t have to make another for me?
708That is not much like an old lady-- is it?
708That would n''t be comfortable-- would it?
708The king looked grave And said:''What does my little daughter mean?''
708The king took her on his knee, and she said in his ear:''King- papa, do you hear that noise?''
708Then perhaps you can tell me why my grandmother has brought me here?
708Then turning again to the lady:''What does it all mean, grandmother?''
708Then turning to the miners, he said:''Will you do the best you can for my servants tonight?
708Then what was it?
708There was a good bunch of it on the distaff attached to the spinning- wheel, and in the moonlight it shone like-- what shall I say it was like?
708They did n''t tease her to death, did they?''
708Was it yesterday?
708What am I to do with it, please?''
708What am I to do with it, please?''
708What are you about here?''
708What are you doing?''
708What can it be?''
708What can you mean?''
708What could it be?
708What could it mean?
708What could that light be?
708What do you think she saw?
708What has happened to you?
708What have you found out?''
708What more is my name, Lootie?''
708What more?''
708What should she do if she lost her hold?
708What was then to be done?
708What were they about?
708What''s that?
708What''s that?''
708What''s the matter, my dear?''
708What''s your name, please?''
708When the old lady had got her thread fairly going again, she said to the princess, but without looking at her:''Do you know my name, child?''
708Where are their nests?''
708Where could it come from?
708Who are you?''
708Who would turn you away?''
708Why could n''t I find you before, great- great- grandmother?''
708Why do we not destroy them entirely, and use their cattle and grazing lands at our pleasure?
708Why should I, when I know you will not believe me?''
708Why should he marry an outlandish woman like that- one of our natural enemies too?''
708Why should she?
708Will Your Majesty give orders that everybody leave the house as quickly as possible and get up the mountain?''
708Will you all please to go away?
708Will you malign your native realms and reduce them to a level with the country upstairs?
708Would n''t it be better to keep hens, and get bigger eggs?''
708Would n''t you like to know who I am, child?''
708Would you like to see my bedroom?''
708Would you like to see them?''
708You ca n''t get out, I suppose?''
708You do believe me now, do n''t you?''
708You know she''s there, do n''t you?''
708You remember?''
708You wo n''t mind sleeping with such a very young woman, grandmother?''
708You''ll be sure to take care of yourself, wo n''t you?''
708do you think I care more for my dress than for my little girl?
708said her grandmother,''what is the matter?''
708said her grandmother,''you wo n''t mind coming to me now?''
708she added, guiding Curdie''s hand to the thread,''you feel it yourself-- don''t you?''
708she cried,''wo n''t you believe what I told you about my grandmother and her thread?''
708where have you been?
708why do you run so fast?
708you do believe in my grandmother, then?
5242And what is his story?
5242And what is the story of King Bihkerd?
5242And what is the story of the merchant and his son?
5242And what is the[ cause of] discord, O my mother?
5242And who is he, the Devil?
5242And why wilt thou not acquaint me with thy case?
5242As thou wilt,answered she;"but what thinkest thou to do?"
5242Dost thou remember what he said?
5242How so?
5242How was that?
5242Is he her father?
5242My name is Miskeh,replied she, and he said to another,"What is thy name?"
5242No,answered I; and she said,"Art thou for breakfast?"
5242O accursed one,''said the Khalif,is this a time for laughter?
5242O king,answered the young man,"how shall they testify of that which they saw not?
5242O wicked viziers,answered he,"shall a man of understanding renounce hope in God the Most High?
5242What is his story?
5242What is it, O king?
5242What is it?
5242What is the story of the merchant,asked the king,"and how was his luck changed upon him by the sorriness of his fortune?"
5242What sawest thou in this youth[ to make thee trust in him]? 5242 Wherefore?"
5242Who is Commander of the Faithful?
5242Who was Abou Sabir,asked the king,"and what is his story?"
5242Whom meanest thou?
5242Why so?
5242Yes, O Commander of the Faithful,answered she; and he said,"What prompted thee to this?"
5242[ FN#86] Quoth the Khalif to those who were present with him,Know ye what this woman meaneth by her saying?"
5242[ FN#92] Then he turned to the woman and said to her,Is it not thus?"
5242''And whoso entereth the king''s house and playeth the traitor with him,''continued the king,''what behoveth unto him?''
5242''Hath a pearl then an outward and an inward?''
5242''How much will that be?''
5242''How so?''
5242''It is well,''answered the eunuch;''what is it?''
5242''O fool,''answered she,''how shall I let thee go thy way?
5242''O king,''answered he,''what matter is graver than that which I see?''
5242''O king,''answered they,''what is this boy and what power hath he?
5242''O my lady,''answered the old woman,''sawst thou not the madman who came hither yesterday with the old woman?
5242''Then said he to his officers,''Who is in yonder prison?''
5242''What dost thou in this desolate place?''
5242''What is that?''
5242''What is that?''
5242''What seest thou?''
5242''What wouldst thou have?''
5242''What[ meanest thou]?''
5242''Who killeth the folk?''
5242''Why didst thou not tell me?''
5242''Yes,''answered he, and the prince said to him''What bringeth thee here?''
5242''Yes,''answered he; and she arose and opening the door to the master of the house, said to him,''Where hast thou been?
5242?"
5242?"
5242Abideth there husband for me, after the son of my uncle?''
5242After he left her, he found his camels, by her blessing, and when he returned, King Kisra asked him,''Hast thou found the camels?''
5242And En Numan said,"What is thy religion?"
5242And he fell to shampooing his hands and feet, whilst the youth called down blessings on him and said,''O my lord, who art thou?
5242And he said to her,''How shall we contrive in this affair?''
5242And he said,''I know not if my father be dead, and he hath none other heir but myself; and how shall I win to him, seeing I have not a dirhem?''
5242And he said,''Is King Belehwan well?''
5242And he,''What offence can be greater than this?
5242And she answered him, saying,"O dotard, is thy wit like unto my wit?
5242And she said,''Did I not tell thee that she resembleth me and I her, and there is nought to distinguish between us but our clothes?
5242And the king said,''Why didst thou not take somewhat of that which thou sawest of jewels and the like?
5242Art thou overcome with grief for[ the loss of] the treasure or[ for that which hath befallen] the eunuch?''
5242As for the man, he committed his affair to God the Most High, relying upon Him for deliverance, and said in himself,''What is this affair?''
5242At this, the king was troubled and said,''What is to do?''
5242Azadbekht knew not[ of their design] till the noise[ of the invasion] beset his capital city, when he said to his wife Behrjaur,"How shall we do?"
5242But he said to her,''O woman, said I not to thee that he who doth evil shall suffer it?
5242But the governor said in himself,''How shall I go to his father and say to him,"Thy son hath wasted thy money and wantoned it away"?
5242But the man said to him,''How long shall I have patience?''
5242By what wickedness cometh this child here?"
5242Canst thou not bring us together?''
5242Dost thou want aught?''
5242For that I will never again foregather with any''?"
5242Hadst thou wrought deliberately, the false had been made manifest to thee from the true; so where was thy judgment and thy sight?"
5242He opened the door and entering, saw the youth lying on the bed, whereupon he turned to his wife and said to her,"What doth this youth here?
5242His hospitality pleased the Khalif and the goodliness of his fashion, and he said to him,"O youth, who art thou?
5242How can it be lawful that this youth should live for a single hour?"
5242How deemest thou of the affair?"
5242How hast thou wasted all this wealth and now comest telling lies and saying,"The dog hath mounted on the shelf,"and talking nonsense?''
5242How long shall I delay this?
5242How long shall the folk upbraid me on thine account and blame me for delaying thy slaughter?
5242How many a body hath he slain, how many a bone laid bare?
5242How shall I go about in quest of a wight whom I know not and whom, if I saw him face to face, I should not know?''
5242How shall he stop all the holes and deliver himself from the vipers?''
5242However, the Khalif accosted him and said to him,"O my brother, did I not say to thee that I would return to thee?"
5242I conjure thee, by Allah, say, was not Aboulhusn with me but now?"
5242If thou wert denied this draught, with what wouldst thou buy it?"
5242Indeed, I am bewildered, and how shall I do, and I alone, forlorn?
5242Is he not vile of origin, the son of thieves?
5242Is it not enough that Aboulhusn is dead, but thou must kill my slave- girl also and bereave us of the two and style me little of wit?"
5242Is not the treasure buried in yonder chamber?''
5242Is this of envy or no?
5242It may be here observed that the word keif( how?)
5242Know ye not that whoso diggeth a pit for his brother shall fall into it?
5242Moreover, he gave him the ornaments of his sword; and Jerir went forth to the[ other] poets, who said to him,"What is behind thee?
5242Presently, he met a friend of his, to whom he discovered his case, and the other said to him,''Art thou not ashamed to talk thus?
5242Presently, there met him a man, a treasure- seeker, and said to him,''Whither goest thou, O youth?''
5242Presently, up came the overseer of the[ Sultan''s] kitchen and said,''What is this man?''
5242Quoth Aboulhusn,"By the protection of God, am I in truth Commander of the Faithful and dost thou not lie?
5242Quoth Bihkerd,''Who shot that arrow?''
5242Quoth En Numan,"What prompted thee to keep faith, the case being as thou sayest?"
5242Quoth Firouz''s wife,"Who is at the door?"
5242Quoth Kisra,''And what is thine occasion unto this?''
5242Quoth Omar,"And who praised him?"
5242Quoth Omar,"What have I to do with the poets?"
5242Quoth Omar,"Who is at the door?"
5242Quoth he,"Knowest thou why this befell thee and thou wast defeated?"
5242Quoth he,''And what is your warning?''
5242Quoth he,''To- day?''
5242Quoth he,''What aileth thee?''
5242Quoth he,''Whence hadst thou these?''
5242Quoth she to him,''Hast thou a wish?''
5242Quoth she,"By Allah, it was ye set me on against him, and what shall I do[ now]?"
5242Quoth she,''Thou sayst truly; but how shall we do with him?''
5242Quoth she,''What is it?''
5242Quoth she,''What offence have I committed?''
5242Quoth she,''What wilt thou do with me, O king, and I a woman abandoned in the desert?''
5242Quoth she,''Why dost thou thus?''
5242Quoth she,[FN#193]''What aileth thee to stand there?
5242Quoth the Khalif,"And what is the cause?"
5242Quoth the boys,''What is it ye would have us do?''
5242Quoth the cadi,"What sayst thou, O youth?"
5242Quoth the cook,''We have experienced the old man''s just judgment; what deemeth the king of fetching him?''
5242Quoth the dealer,''Who will buy this fellow, and he a man of fourscore?''
5242Quoth the king''How knowest thou that?''
5242Quoth the king,"And what is his story?"
5242Quoth the king,"Who was Bekhtzeman and what is his story?"
5242Quoth the king,"Who was King Ibrahim and who was his son?"
5242Quoth the king,''Dost thou call thyself a cavalier and a man of learning and deemest that victory is in abundance of troops?''
5242Quoth the prince,''What is it?''
5242Quoth the superintendant,"What aileth this youth?"
5242Quoth the thief,''And what is the amount of the rent?''
5242Quoth the thief,''What is the sum of this?''
5242Quoth the vizier,''What is the weight of the elephant?''
5242Quoth they,''What proof wouldst thou have?
5242She wept and answered, saying,''O king, how canst thou find it in thy heart to bespeak me thus?
5242She will say to thee,''What aileth thee?''
5242So Mesrour went out, running, and the Khalif said to Zubeideh,"Wilt thou lay me a wager?"
5242So he acquainted them with his history, from first to last, whereby they knew him and said to him,''Art thou[ such an one] son of such an one?''
5242So he ate thereof with all his might, till he had gotten his fill, when he called one of the slave- girls and said to her,"What is thy name?"
5242So he bade bring them before him, and when they came into his presence, he questioned them, saying,''Where are the two boys ye took on such a day?''
5242So he betook himself to his house; but when the artful baggage his wife saw him, she cried out in his face, saying,''Whither away, O trooper?
5242So he looked at them and rising up, for that he knew them not, said to them,"What say ye?
5242So he opened his eyes and finding an old woman at his head, raised his eyes and said to her,"Who art thou?"
5242So he said to her,''Do thou excuse me, for my servant hath locked the door, and who shall open to us?''
5242So he said to the folk,''Know ye not who I am?''
5242So he said to the singer,''And what said she to thee at thy going away?''
5242So he said,''O strumpet, what doings are these?''
5242So he turned to those who were present and said to them,"To whom belongeth yonder house?"
5242So his friend said to him,''How often did I tell thee thou hadst no luck in wheat?
5242So how wilt thou return and cast thyself again into thine enemy''s hand?
5242So she donned a devotee''s habit and betaking herself to the goldsmith, said to him,''To whom belongeth the bracelet that is in the king''s hand?''
5242So she took the knife from him and said to her husband,''Art thou a woman and he a man?
5242So the cadi said to the brother,"Hath he delivered thee the garden, as he saith?"
5242So the king said to him,''Why dost thou not go about thy business?''
5242So the king said to his vizier,''How shall we avail to abide in this city, and we in this state of poverty?''
5242So the lackpenny stopped and said to him,''Dost thou cry out upon me and becall[ me] with these words, O cuckold?''
5242So the master of the police refrained from slaying him and said to the third,"Who art thou?"
5242So the trooper said to him,''What ails thee to be thus?''
5242So they did as he commanded and the merchant took his eyes in his hand and said,''How long[ wilt thou afflict me], O star of ill- omen?
5242So they presented themselves before him,[ and the boy with them,] whom when the king saw, he said to them,"To whom belongeth this boy?"
5242The cadi turned to Firouz and said to him,"What sayst thou, O youth?"
5242The damsel opened to her and seeing her clad in devotee''s apparel,[FN#184] saluted her and said to her,''Belike thou hast an occasion with us?''
5242The eunuch fell a- weeping in the pit and the youth said to him,''What is this weeping and what shall it profit here?''
5242The prince thanked them and said to them,''God requite you with all good, for indeed ye give me loyal counsel; but whither would ye have me go?''
5242The youth sighed and answered,''I am a stranger;''and the eunuch said,''From what land art thou and who is thy father?''
5242Then he girt his middle with a handkerchief and entering, saluted the young merchant, who said to him,''Where hast thou been?''
5242Then he said to the chief eunuch,"Who am I?"
5242Then he turned to Abou Temam and said to him,''Wilt thou not go with my message and seek me[ in marriage] the king''s daughter of the Turks?''
5242Then he turned to a damsel of the damsels and said to her,"Who am I?"
5242Then he turned to another eunuch and said to him,"O my chief,[FN#20] by the protection of God, am I Commander of the Faithful?"
5242Then he went on, but, before he had gone far, he said in himself,"If I take up the money and spur my horse and forego him, how shall he overtake me?"
5242Then let his fellow say,"Knowest thou this for truth?"
5242Then let the other of you ask,"And what is his transgression?"
5242Then one of the crew questioned her, saying,''Whose wife art thou?''
5242Then said En Numan to the Tai,"And thou, what prompted thee to return, knowing that therein was death and thine own destruction?"
5242Then said he to Arwa,"What wilt thou that I do with them?"
5242Then said he to Sherik,"What prompted thee to become warrant for him, knowing that it was death?"
5242Then said he to a third,"What is thy name?"
5242Then said he to her,''Shah Khatoun, Shah Khatoun, is this my recompense from thee?''
5242Then said he to the king,''In what crafts dost thou excel?''
5242Then said she to him,"O my son, was there any one with thee yesternight?"
5242Then said she to him,''When the king saw him and questioned thee of him, what saidst thou to him?''
5242Then said she,"O king, comest thou to a[ watering-]place whereat thy dog hath drunken and wilt thou drink thereof?"
5242Then said the goldsmith to the prince,''Whence hadst thou these rubies?''
5242Then said the king,"How long wilt thou beguile us with thy prate, O youth?
5242Then said the wife,''O man, how much do we owe the baker and the greengrocer?''
5242Then she brought out a rosary and began to tell her beads thereon, and the damsel said to her,''Whence comest thou, O pilgrim?
5242Then the king acquainted the people[ of his court] with the matter and said to them,''O folk, how deem ye of my looking to the issues of affairs?''
5242Then we questioned him, saying,''Who is thy father?''
5242Then, when he had drunken, he said to him,"If thou wert denied the going forth of the draught from thy body, with what wouldst thou buy its issue?"
5242There he saw a man tilling; so he sought guidance of him and the husbandman said,''Art thou a stranger?''
5242They saw him weeping and mourning and said to him,''What is thy case and what maketh thee weep?''
5242Thinkest thou to appease my heart with thy prate, whereby the days are spent in talk?
5242This came to Abou Sabir''s knowledge and he said to his wife,''Said I not to thee, O woman, that whoso doth evil, it shall revert upon him?
5242Thou art a stranger and a beggar, and what concern hast thou with the king''s health?''
5242What did ye?
5242What doth this gold profit us?
5242What excuse is left you?"
5242What is come of the troops that were encamped beside my palace?''
5242What is his offence that he should merit this punishment?
5242What is thy story and what maketh thee weep?"
5242What possessed thee to leave the door open, so that the Devil came in to me and there befell me with him this and that?"
5242What sayst thou?''
5242What then dost thou counsel me that I should do in this matter?"
5242What then,"continued the young treasurer,"is more grievous than the lack of looking to the issues of affairs?
5242What token, then, hast thou of the truth of thy saying?''
5242When Abou Sabir''s troops saw this, they marvelled and said,''What is this deed that the king doth?
5242When I arose in the morning, there came the chamber- woman and said to me,"Hast thou occasion for the bath?"
5242When Nuzhet el Fuad heard this, she started up from her lying posture and said,"How shall we do?"
5242When she heard this, her wits fled and she would have cried out, but her reason restrained her, and the king said to her,''What is this?
5242When the damsel heard these verses, she wept till her clothes were drenched and drew near the old woman, who said to her,''Knowest thou such an one?''
5242When the folk saw them on this wise, they came up to them and said to them,''What is this strife between you, and no cause for it?''
5242When the king heard this, he was perplexed and amazed and said to her,''Hast thou a proof that this youth is thy son?
5242When the king heard this, his colour changed and he said to them,''Have ye proof of this?''
5242When the king saw him do thus, he was sore disquieted and bade seize him and said to him,''Is this my requital from thee?
5242When the letter reached the chiefs[ of the people and troops], they all assembled together to Isfehend and said to him,"What is to do with him?
5242When the prince heard this, he looked in his face and knowing him, cried out and said,''Art thou not Bihkerd the king?''
5242Whence knowest thou him?''
5242Whence pretendest thou to kinship with the king?
5242Where was the eye of your father this day, that it might have seen you?''
5242Whereupon the sleeper awoke and sat up; and the eunuch said to him,''Who is thy father in this village and where is thy dwelling?''
5242Who is at the door other than he?"
5242Who is at the door other than he?"
5242Who is at the door, other than he?"
5242Who is at the door, other than he?"
5242Who is at the door?"
5242Who is at the door?"
5242Why, then, dost thou postpone the putting him to death?"
5242Why, then, hast thou not looked upon her?''
5242Wilt thou break into the house of Ahmed the fuller, and he a man of repute, having a brother- in- law a Turk, a man of high standing with the Sultan?
5242Wilt thou divorce me?
5242Wilt thou not have me to husband?''
5242With this, the druggist was certified that the house was his house and the wife his wife, and he said,''And what wilt thou do to- day?''
5242[ FN#180] With what eye shall I look on him, and indeed, I am he in whom he confided and to whom he hath entrusted his son?
5242[ FN#257] Heads of families?
5242[ The thing is settled;] so say the word, how much wilt thou have[ to her dowry]?"
5242["Yes, O Commander of the Faithful,"answered Mesrour] Quoth the Lady Zubeideh, laughing from a heart full of wrath,"Wilt thou not leave thy jesting?
5242[''How so?''
5242],"as it were the thing had not been, and payest down nought for it?''
5242answered she, and he said,"What then saidst thou?"
5242is constantly used in the Breslau Text in the sense of ma( what?).
5242odorem pudendorum amicà ¦?
5242spare strings, etc.?
5242what is the matter?''
5242what is thy news?
5242what was his affair?
36696Ah, my dear friend,Butti would answer,"why will you go roaming about the country by yourself?
36696Ah, where indeed?
36696Ah,thought he,"can this be a woman or a spirit?
36696And do tell me,she said,"are you quite immortal?
36696And what is the last news in your town?
36696And what is this act of devotion?
36696And what more has Fate in store for this poor Wuzeer?
36696And what next?
36696And what son of a Rajah is the man in the palkee?
36696And what then?
36696And what will he do after that, dear husband?
36696And what,he continued,"is the use of your wand?"
36696Baba,[71] answered the Malee''s wife,"do not think of such a thing; are you mad?
36696But how is it,asked the Rajah,"that he thus dazzles our eyes?"
36696Can no one get it out?
36696Can not the Peri be caught?
36696Can we go to this country?
36696Did n''t you?
36696Do n''t you know?
36696Do you know what the child''s name is?
36696Do you see this tree?
36696Do you think you should know my father, mother darling, if you were to see him again?
36696Every day,she replied,"when he has shot the pearl, he comes to me quite happy and proud, and says,''Was there ever a man as clever as I am?''
36696Exactly there, was it?
36696Has no one been able to manage it?
36696Have any of the Ranees been unkind to you?
36696How can I tell?
36696How can I?
36696How can that be done?
36696How do you mean?
36696How is that?
36696How is this?
36696How long ago was it?
36696How much do you want for him?
36696I meant no harm,I said; and when we got home I told my father what my mother had done, and he said to her,"Why did you slap the child?"
36696In what direction did he go from the foot of the garden?
36696My father?
36696O my Lord,they cried,"what offerings will please you?
36696Of whom do you speak?
36696Oh, pray do n''t; why do you wish to do so?
36696Old woman,said Seventee Bai,"what is the matter?"
36696On what must I give judgment?
36696On what must I give judgment?
36696On what must I give judgment?
36696On what shall I give judgment?
36696Shall I pay you in horses? 36696 Sister dear,"said she,"what is the matter?"
36696That is very sad,said the first little jackal;"but could he never by any chance come to life again?"
36696What are the proper remedies, and how could he be cured?
36696What are they doing here? 36696 What became of my mother?"
36696What can I do? 36696 What did he dream?"
36696What do you mean?
36696What do you want?
36696What does he say to you himself about it?
36696What harm will it do?
36696What have you done with all the melons I gave you?
36696What is the matter, my son?
36696What secret?
36696What will you have?
36696What would you have for the journey, my son?
36696What, both?
36696Where and how will you go?
36696Where can it have gone?
36696Where is he now?
36696Where is our friend the Shepherd?
36696Where is your solemn council held?
36696Where was the Tiger, then?
36696Where, child, where?
36696Which way did she go?
36696Who are these people?
36696Who ever heard of a Rajah in such a miserable plight?
36696Who is he?
36696Why are you traveling about, then, and where are you going?
36696Why do you ask foolish questions?
36696Why do you ask?
36696Why do you ring again, Guzra Bai?
36696Why, then,asked her brothers and sisters,"why do you not tell the Rajah that you are living, and that you are the Ranee Surya Bai?"
36696Why,he answered,"I thought perhaps you might remember on which side they returned that first night to you, after being bewitched?"
36696Wife, did you sweep the courtyard?
36696Will he always remain stone?
36696Wo n''t they come back?
36696Yes,he said;"but tell me the very truth, am I your own child, or the child of some one else, adopted as yours?
36696Yes,she answered;"what of them?"
36696You silly bird, who''d be so foolish as to give a thousand gold mohurs for a parrot?
36696You would like it then?
36696Your wife?
36696), could you not have told me when we first saw her in that Glass Palace, and I would have exiled myself that she might be your wife?
36696Again the captain looks out; the sailors say to him,"What do you see?"
36696Again, a third time, when some weeks had passed, the Barber said to him,"Is there no ripe fruit in our garden yet?"
36696And Seventee Bai said,"What do you suppose your Rajah would give to any one who could show him the tree of which he has so often dreamed?"
36696And are you too great an enchanter ever to feel human suffering?"
36696And running home to the Ranee( his adopted mother), he said to her,"Are you really my mother?
36696And the assembled Rajahs and Ranees were surprised beyond measure, saying,"Did any one ever hear of a woman doing so much?"
36696And they said to her,"Daughter, why do you come?
36696And when the conjurors said to him,"Why should you go away?
36696Are there not enough Queens and Princesses in the world, that you should wish to marry a wretched old beggar- woman?"
36696Are we not sisters?"
36696Are you a Rakshas or a spirit?"
36696As Punchkin passed through the palace gate the servants said to him,"Where did you get that pretty little dog?"
36696As she walked forth, very sad at missing her disguise, her husband ran to meet her, smiling and saying,"How do you do, my dear?
36696As soon as the wedding was over, the Prince said to his wife,"Gentle wife, tell me how much longer you intend to wear that old skin?
36696At hearing this, the Sowkar''s wife said,"Since we are all journeying on the same errand, why should we not go together?"
36696At last she opened her eyes, and seeing the Malee''s wife, said,"Where am I?
36696At last, the Pearl- shooter said to his friend,"What is the reason of your journey, and where are you going?"
36696At this moment the Rajah started up, and seeing him, said:"O Wuzeer, Wuzeer, is this well done of you?
36696At this she smiled and dried her eyes, but quickly added,"You will let me take these crows with me, will you not?
36696At this the rose bush trembled very much, and sighed and said,"I am a little girl as well as you; how can you be so cruel?
36696Balna turned to her, angrily, and said,"Why do n''t you keep fuel in your own house, and not come here every day and take ours?
36696But no sooner did the jeweler see them than he said,"How could such a poor man as you become possessed of such precious stones?
36696But now what good?
36696But the Blind Man was very brave( because he could n''t see), and went up to the door and called out,"Who are you?
36696But the Sowkar''s wife answered,"Shall we be deterred by this after having come so far?
36696But the old woman answered,"Are you mad?
36696But the other sisters would answer,"Be quiet, Balna; why must you always be quarreling with this poor woman?
36696But yet, being hungry, he did not wish to go without his dinner; so to make all as safe as he could, he cried,"Where are all the little crabs gone?
36696Ca n''t you take it off, dear?"
36696Can I help you?
36696Can I take it away with me when I die?
36696Can death never touch you?
36696Can he be my son?
36696Can not you find some beautiful Prince to be my husband?"
36696Can not you get me a wife?"
36696Can she be ill?
36696Can you help me to get there?"
36696Champa Ranee recognized the voice as Vicram''s; he went on:"Will you go body and soul to heaven?
36696Could she be really the world- renowned Panch- Phul Ranee, or was he dreaming still?
36696Do n''t you yet know the looks of these old beggars?"
36696Do you know the road to heaven?"
36696Do you know what is the cause of your daily death?
36696Do you not hear voices?
36696Do you not remember his having said anything of the way which he intended to go when he left you?"
36696Do you not think they look well even on me?
36696Do you see these people encamped under our tree?
36696Do you think I am going to give my child up at your command?
36696Even though age and sickness and want had done their utmost to change him?"
36696First,"Buy some milk-- who''ll buy milk-- who''ll buy?"
36696Have I found you after these many years?"
36696Have my words come true, think you, or yours?"
36696Have you any reason for always wearing the same ones?"
36696Have you forgotten how, when you were a little boy, you were taught to jump by conjurors and tumblers( for the parrot knew all the Rajah''s history)?
36696Have you forgotten it?
36696Have you no friends?"
36696He accosted the Wrestler and the Pearl- shooter and said to them,"Who are you, friends, and where are you going?"
36696He answered,"Why should you be miserable on that account; though you have no children, your sister has eight or nine; why not adopt one of hers?"
36696He pulled it out, and no sooner had he done so than Surya Bai opened her eyes, and stood up, crying,"Where am I?
36696Her father and mother said to her,"Why will you not choose a husband?
36696Hera Bai immediately appeared, saying,"Husband, what can I do for you?"
36696His mother also was overjoyed at his return, and they said to him,"Since you have been restored to us again, why should you wander any more?
36696How came you here?"
36696How can I learn?"
36696How did it come here?
36696How do you think you will find Mahdeo?
36696How into this land, and into this town and bazaar, among these wicked people?
36696How is it you never told me of them?
36696How was the latter to be expelled to make way for the former?
36696I am the Rajah of a neighboring land; pray tell me who are you?"
36696I do not cry for the dead man: can you not see that my chattee is broken and all the milk spilt?
36696I feel convinced it is as you say; but what can we do?"
36696I often think,"Where find such good Christian people in these days?"
36696I wonder who can have done it?
36696If I give you some of my dinner, what will you give me in exchange?"
36696If I give you some, what have you to give me in exchange?"
36696If indeed you loved her( as who could help it?
36696Is anything wrong, that you do not speak?"
36696Is it a dream, or true?"
36696Is it fair he should do so or no?"
36696Is it just that he should do so or no?"
36696Is it nice and warm?
36696Is it not enough to make one weep?"
36696Keep a cheerful mind, and all will be well; who knows but we may yet find our husband?
36696Mahdeo answered,"What would be the use of that?
36696Meanwhile the Blind Man called out to his friend,"Where am I?
36696Must you never hear her ask your pardon for the past, nor know her cruel punishment?
36696Must you now never know that you won your wife?
36696Next day, while the Princesses were eating the cream cake, who should come by but their step- mother''s daughter?
36696Now the Wuzeer wondered much why she came to see him, and he said,"Who are you, and what is your errand?"
36696Now, about this time, Seventee Bai one day found Parbuttee Bai crying, and said to her,"Little sister, why are you unhappy?"
36696O Luxman, who have been to me as a brother, who have saved me from so many difficulties, why do you treat me thus, to kiss her holy forehead?
36696O husband, have you forgotten her whom you left in the jungle with Parbuttee Bai twelve years ago?
36696O my brother, my brother, why did you mock me thus?"
36696On Luxman''s return, the young Rajah said to him,"What did the woman want?"
36696Poor Logedas Rajah said to them,"Why has this wicked Rajah had me taken prisoner?
36696Rama Rajah replied,"Oh, why did you give the order for him to be put to death?
36696Seventee Bai answered,"May I not come to see you, beautiful lady?"
36696She answered,"Are you sure it is quite fresh?
36696She answered,"Who are you?
36696She cried,"Do none of your family know of this?
36696Since my life is thus maimed, what would it avail to tell my family?
36696Six of us are given only common wooden stools to sit upon, but the seventh has an emerald chair?"
36696So he called out to his wife, and said,"Where did you get this beautiful dog?"
36696So he called out,"Little house, pretty house, my sweet little house, why do you not give an answer when I call?
36696So he went to the town, and took the precious stones to a jeweler, and said to him,"What will you give me for these?"
36696So she called out,"Father Cobra, father Cobra, my husband has come to fetch me; will you let me go?"
36696So the hunter took him into the town, crying"Who''ll buy?
36696So when they said to her,"Can you kill these children?"
36696So, next time her husband shot the pearl from her nose- ring, and said to her,"Was there ever a man as clever as I am?"
36696Son- in- law Jackal, can not you help me?"
36696Speak, beautiful Prince-- tell me how you came here, and who you are?"
36696Tell me what attendants you would like to accompany you?"
36696Tell me why did you come?"
36696That night, when the Chundun Rajah came to life, he called the Brahmin, and said to him,"Is the Princess still here?"
36696The Brahmin told his story, and said to him,"Mama[80] Jackal, mama Jackal, say what is your judgment?"
36696The Magician saw him, and came to him quickly, and said,"My boy, where did you get that parrot?
36696The Prince caught hold of her hand, and said,"Now tell me true, who are you?
36696The Rajah at hearing this was deeply grieved, and said to his wife,"What can I do for you?"
36696The Rajah said,"Where is the maiden to be seen?"
36696The Wrestler was much surprised to find that the Pundit knew where the cauldron was hidden, and said,"Who can have put it there?"
36696The Wuzeer answered,"Is there any supernatural power you at all desire to possess?
36696The farmer''s wife saw her and said,"Poor old woman, who are you?
36696The nobles went out to meet them, and called out,"What great Rajah is this who is dressed so royally, and comes flying through the air so fast?
36696The old woman tried to comfort her, saying,"Why should you fancy he is dead?
36696The sailors say to him,"What do you see?"
36696The sailors say to the captain,"What do you see?"
36696The ship comes home to land-- What cargo does it bring?
36696The ship comes home to land-- What does it bring?
36696The ship comes to our doors-- Who brings it home?
36696The ship''s on the sea-- Which way is it coming?
36696The ship''s on the sea-- Which way is it coming?
36696The young Prince saw her, and calling the Malee''s wife, said to her,"What beautiful lady is that in your house?
36696Then Balna said to her sisters,"Do you see that girl watching us?
36696Then Coplinghee Ranee asked the Nautch woman the same question, saying,"And who may you be, and where are you going?"
36696Then Gunputti said to the Rajah,"Vicram, what gift do you choose?"
36696Then Guzra Bai began to cry, for she knew it was not true; but what could one poor woman do against thirteen?
36696Then Logedas Rajah said,"Why do you seize me?
36696Then Surya Bai''s attendant said,"Have you ever asked her her history?
36696Then Vicram said,"Did I not tell you how it would be?
36696Then he called after her,"Bai, Bai, where are you going?
36696Then he said to him again,"Good bangle- seller, I would see these strange people of whom you speak; can not you take me there?"
36696Then he said,"Ah, Princess, is it indeed you?
36696Then he said,"And will you now come home with me?"
36696Then his mother said to Surya Bai,"Why should you be in such a hurry to go home?
36696Then his wives said to him,"Why do you laugh?
36696Then she said,"Sir, three women came seeking you, but two stayed by the river of fire, for they were afraid; may not they also have children?"
36696Then the Magician said,"If it is an old favorite, I can understand your not caring to give it away; but come, what will you sell it for?"
36696Then the Parrot said to her,"Tell me now where was the house of this husband of yours, to which he took you?"
36696Then the Ranee thought,"What will the Rajah say when he finds I have been telling him such stories?
36696Then the boy sprang up and said,"Which way did your brothers take when they met the Rakshas?"
36696Then they said to him,"What is this you have done?"
36696Then, in her turn, she said to the Ranee,"And pray who are you, and where are you going?"
36696Then, turning to Surya Bai, she said,"Who are you, and what do you want?"
36696Then, very angry, he came to the first Ranee and said,"Tell me where the child is?
36696They asked her attendants, who slept just outside her door, whether she had been ill that night, or if any one had gone into her room?
36696They next met an Eagle flying through the air, to whom the Brahmin cried,"O Eagle, great Eagle, hear and give judgment?"
36696This Cobra was a very wise animal, and seeing the maiden, he put his head out of his hole, and said to her,"Little girl, why do you cry?"
36696This puzzled us children, and we would say to her,"Granny, are there any seven- headed Cobras now?
36696Thus one day he said to her,"Good mother, what is the use of all those little jars of water you have arranged round your house?"
36696To blow the fire?
36696Vicram thought to himself,"Can this possibly be Butti?"
36696Was it for this that I was cold, and proud, and stern-- to break the cup of my own happiness and to be the death of such as you?
36696Was the cage door open or shut?"
36696We used sometimes to ask my grandmother,"Are those stories you tell us really true?
36696Well, look just in front of you; do you see those two?"
36696Were ever any so divinely beautiful?
36696Were there ever such people in the world?"
36696What are we to do?"
36696What can that black stuff be on her face and hands?
36696What can we do?"
36696What cargo has it?
36696What cargo has it?
36696What could six poor women do?
36696What do you think I had better do?"
36696What does she want with ours?
36696What good will that do you?
36696What in the world did you make such a noise for?"
36696What is all this about?"
36696What is the good of your paying him so much, unless he can be of use when he is wanted?"
36696What is the name of your country?"
36696What nonsense is this?
36696What people?"
36696What power do you think you possess to succeed where all before you have failed?
36696What should I care to live for?
36696What use?
36696What will my husband think if he learns that this wretched, ugly, miserable- looking dog is my mother?"
36696What''s the good of my saving money?
36696When all the Ranees were taken to their places, the six eldest complained, saying,"How is this?
36696When he reached the tree the old parrot said to him,"It is two days since you left us; what news have you brought from the village?"
36696When she saw the stranger, she gave a little cry, and said,"Ah, my lord, why do you come here?"
36696When the party returned home, the Rajah''s brother said to him,"Where did you get these magnificent presents?"
36696When they saw her, they said,"Well, Sowkar''s wife, what news?"
36696When, however, the Barber said to him,"What is the garden like which you bought with the money I gave you?"
36696Where am I?
36696Where can they be?"
36696Where did it come from?
36696Where do they live?"
36696Where have you been so long?"
36696Where is your house now?
36696Where is your skin now?
36696Whereupon the Rajah of that country sent to Seventee Bai, and asked her who she was, and why she had come?
36696Who are your father and mother?
36696Who''ll buy?
36696Who''s going to give you such a sum for a parrot?
36696Why can not we both live happily together like two sisters?"
36696Why did n''t you do as we advised you, and jump up nicely?"
36696Why do you not get one too?"
36696Why do you now bring him back?"
36696Why do you?
36696Why should not we give them life?"
36696Why should she come here for no purpose?
36696Why should we disagree?
36696Why should we not buy one?"
36696Wife, did you do this?"
36696Will no one go to the diggings?
36696Will you let me try?"
36696Will you never be cured of it?"
36696Would it be possible, think you, to escape?"
36696Would you like to hear their story?"
36696You are a wise man-- can you guess what this means?"
36696You are sure it is the best butter?"
36696You have not laughed for such a long time: what amuses you so much now?"
36696[ 2] Was this narrative of feminine sagacity invented by some old woman, who felt aggrieved at the general contempt entertained for her sex?
36696[ 77]"Who are you, sir, and what do you want?"
36696_ LESS INEQUALITY THAN MEN DEEM._ A young Rajah once said to his Wuzeer,"How is it that I am so often ill?
36696a devil or an angel in disguise?"
36696and how did she come there?"
36696and if so, why do you stay here in a dismal tomb?"
36696and what do you mean by coming battering at the door in this way and at this time of night?"
36696and what it is that brings you to life each night at twelve o''clock?"
36696and who are you?
36696and who are you?"
36696and why are you here alone by yourself in the jungle?
36696answered her husband;"why not be content with your lot?
36696answered the Deaf Man,"there are seven great Rakshas with tusks like an elephant''s coming to kill us; what can we do?"
36696answered the old parrot;"of course we could; but what would be the good of doing so?
36696asked the merchant--"two rupees?
36696cried the Rajah,"how many and how many brave men has my daughter killed?
36696do you know it is twelve years since you left us all?"
36696has not my husband come back?
36696have you forgotten polly''s words?"
36696he cried,"is this the way you serve me, obliging me to come out and look for you in such pouring rain and on such a dark night as this?
36696he said,"even though eighteen years have gone by since you saw him last?
36696he said,"that wretched- looking man who is beating the drum?"
36696here have I been waiting ever so long, wondering what has become of you; where have you been all this time?"
36696how can you think so?"
36696is your husband unkind to you, or what is the matter?"
36696or can our Tara Bai be unhappy in the beautiful house we have given her?"
36696or in gold?"
36696or in silver?
36696said Chandra Rajah;"will you have elephants and how many?--attendants, how many?"
36696said Rama;"and what is your interpretation of the dream?"
36696said the Jackal;"how were you within the cage?
36696said the wife,"what next?"
36696screamed the old woman--"your wife?
36696she replied;"have I not always treated you as a son?"
36696thought the Alligator,"is that all?
36696thought the Jackal to himself,"what can I do?
36696thought the Prince,"this then is the thief; but what can this queer old woman want with lotus flowers?"
36696what can I do for my seven daughters?
36696what can we do?
36696what could I, a poor, weak woman, do here alone?
36696what do you want?
36696what has happened?
36696what have you done?
36696what have you done?"
36696what is the matter?"
36696what is there to be alarmed about?
36696what shall we do?
36696what story can I tell you?
36696what will my mistress say?
36696when the good Brahmin opened your cage door, is to eat him the only return you would make?
36696where am I?"
36696where do you come from?
36696where your servants and all your possessions?
36696which way were you looking?"
36696who is right now, I wonder?"
36696who''ll buy?
36696who''ll buy?"
36696why are you here?
36696why did you ever leave my house?"
36696why is the Rajah so far from his kingdom?"
36696wo n''t you buy some fresh butter?"
7885''Why will you be silent? 7885 An''are you sorry for our agreement?"
7885An''what are you doing with that box and dice I see in your hand?
7885An''where would I get em''but in the heads of your own sheep? 7885 And do you blame, master?"
7885And do you say no more nor that?
7885And how did you know there were six, you poor innocent?
7885And how did you like the sport?
7885And what do you say to me,says''Saint Kavin,"for making her the like?"
7885And where will I look for''em?
7885And who else should I mean? 7885 And who wo n''t you have, may I be so bold as to ask?"
7885And will you direct me to where she dwells? 7885 Are you doing any soothsaying?"
7885Are you making game of me, man; what else have I to stake?
7885Are you strong?
7885Are you wishful to hang me a third time?
7885Art thou shaved, man?
7885Blur- an- agers, how came ye to know about my goose?
7885But will you gi''e me all the ground the goose flew over?
7885But you''ll keep your word true?
7885Dear me,said Tom,"but is n''t it surprising to hear the stonechatters singing so late in the season?"
7885Devil a one of me knows,said Tom;"but of malt, I suppose, what else?"
7885Did you ever see Fin?
7885Do n''t you see her there away from you?
7885Do you see that black thing at the end of the field?
7885Have n''t you chariot and horses and hounds?
7885Have you any more to stake?
7885He''ll do well enough,said one;"but who''s to mind him whilst we''re away, who''ll turn the fire, who''ll see that he does n''t burn?"
7885Heardst thou ever the like?
7885How could I go?
7885How could I kill you,asked the king''s son,"after what you have done for me?"
7885How could I?
7885How did you forget?
7885How do you know that?
7885How much for your hides, my men?
7885I am King O''Toole,says he,"prince and plennypennytinchery of these parts,"says he;"but how came ye to know that?"
7885I know that you are a great rascal; and where did you get the eyes?
7885I suppose,said the Lepracaun, very civilly,"you have no further occasion for me?"
7885I''ll give you whatever you ask,says the king;"is n''t that fair?"
7885I''m much obleeged to you: where is the baste and yourself going?
7885I''m sure I beg your pardon,said my grandfather"but might I ask you a question?"
7885If thy father had that rod,says the giant,"what would he do with it?"
7885Indeed it is, honest man,replied Oonagh;"God save you kindly-- won''t you be sitting?"
7885Is it a story you want?
7885Is it a tinker you are?
7885Is it fearing I wo n''t pay you, you are?
7885Is it fighting you''ve been? 7885 Is it me myself, you mean?"
7885Is it you, Donald?
7885Is it you,said she,"that were there?"
7885Is that the way you''re leaving me?
7885Is there any other young woman in the house?
7885Is this the way you are mending the path, Jack?
7885Is thy daughter mine now?
7885It''s daybreak that''s the matter: do n''t you see light yonder?
7885Jack, you anointed scoundrel, what do you mean?
7885Jack, you vagabone, do you see what the cows are at?
7885Jewels, do you say? 7885 May your hand turn into a pig''s foot with you when you think of tying the rope; why should you speak of hanging me?"
7885Never welcome you in,cried the captain of the guard,"did n''t we hang you this minute, and what brings you here?"
7885Now, O Conall,said the king,"were you ever in a harder place than to be seeing your lot of sons hanged tomorrow?
7885Now,said he to the story- teller,"what kind of animal would you rather be, a deer, a fox, or a hare?
7885Now,said the lank grey beggarman;"has any one a mind to run after the dog and on the course?"
7885Now,said the raven,"see you that house yonder?
7885Now,says he,"she''ll be without talk any more; now, Guleesh, what good will she be to you when she''ll be dumb?
7885O musha, mother,says Jack,"why do you ax me that question?
7885Oonagh,said he,"can you do nothing for me?
7885So the sea- maiden put up his head(_ Who do you mean? 7885 So,"says Tom to the king,"will you let me have the other half of the princess if I bring you the flail?"
7885Thank you, ma''am,says he, sitting down;"you''re Mrs. M''Coul, I suppose?"
7885The host,they cried;"what do you want with the host?
7885There is gloom on your face, girl,said the youth;"what do you here?"
7885This is the third time, and who knows what luck you may have? 7885 To be sure, you lazy sluggard, I do?"
7885To whom art thou talking, my son?
7885Troutie, bonny little fellow,said she,"am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
7885Troutie, bonny little fellow,said she,"am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
7885Well, honest man,says the king,"and how is it you make your money so aisy?"
7885Well, may be you''d be civil enough to tell_ us_ what you''ve got in the pitcher there?
7885Well, well,cried them all, when he came within hearing,"any chance of our property?"
7885Well, what about_ them_?
7885What are you doing there, you rascal?
7885What are you doing, you contrary thief?
7885What canst thou do?
7885What colour do you want the mare to be?
7885What could I do with the twelve iron ones for myself or my master? 7885 What gift,"said his wife,"would you give me that I could make you laugh?"
7885What is the good of that? 7885 What is the reason of your journey?"
7885What like are these men when seen, if we were to see them?
7885What men are these you refer to?
7885What news have you to- day?
7885What news the day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news to- day?
7885What news today?
7885What piercing, shrill cry is that-- the most melodious my ear ever heard, and the shrillest that ever struck my heart of all the cries I ever heard?
7885What purse is that you are talking about?
7885What reason had you to strike the man who won my daughter?
7885What reward would you give me for sending plenty of fish to you?
7885What robe will you wear?
7885What scoundrel struck that blow?
7885What suitor is that?
7885What work can ye do?
7885What would bring them there?
7885What''ll you take for that hide?
7885What''s the matter, friends?
7885What''s the matter? 7885 What''s the matter?"
7885What''s the reward for putting it back in the bundle as it was before?
7885What''s the reward you would ask?
7885When he felt the birds calling in the morning, and knew that the day was, he said--''Art thou sleeping? 7885 When will he be here?"
7885Whence come you, and what is your craft?
7885Whence comest thou, maiden?
7885Where did I get it, is it? 7885 Where is the water, wife?"
7885Where will I look for them?
7885Where? 7885 Who are you, my good man?"
7885Who deluded you? 7885 Who else took the head off the beast but you?"
7885Who else?
7885Who has dared to interfere with my fighting pet?
7885Who is there?
7885Who is this beauty and where is she to be seen, when she was not seen before till you saw her, if you did see her?
7885Who knows,they replied,"who committed the crime?"
7885Who should take the heads off the knot but the man that put the heads on?
7885Who then?
7885Who then?
7885Who then?
7885Why do n''t you come to breakfast, my dear?
7885Why should n''t I be satisfied?
7885Will you give a body a taste of your beer?
7885Will you give me the first son you have?
7885Will you not put out,said Silver- tree,"your little finger through the key- hole, so that your own mother may give a kiss to it?"
7885Will you play again?
7885Will you play again?
7885Will you take a gold piece?
7885Will you take me?
7885Would you tell a body,says the cock that was perched on the ass''s head,"who was it that opened the door for the robbers the other night?"
7885You home- spun shoe carle, do you think I am fit to be your thrall?
7885You wo n''t go back o''your word?
7885You would not cheat the poor man, would you?
7885You, you poor creature, what good would you do?
7885''Hast thou boiled that youngster for me?''
7885''Play up with you, why should you be silent?
7885''Strike up with you,''said the head bard,''why should we be still?
7885A LEGEND OF KNOCKMANY What Irish man, woman, or child has not heard of our renowned Hibernian Hercules, the great and glorious Fin M''Coul?
7885A while after this he called again:"Are your asleep?"
7885After some more talk the king says,"What are you?"
7885After they had gone and were out of sight, the henwife came to the kitchen and said:"Well, my dear, are you for church to- day?"
7885After they had gone, the henwife came in and asked:"Will you go to church to- day?"
7885Ah, now, could n''t you take me with you?"
7885Ah, will any of you pull a bed of dry grass for me?
7885And again the mighty voice thundered:"Do you see this great chest of mine?"
7885And if she asks you, Were you at the battle of the birds?
7885And now tell me what dress will you have?"
7885And she said to me,''What brought you here?''
7885And the giant asked him,"Where is thy father when he has that brave rod?"
7885And the voice said:"Do you see this great head of mine?"
7885And what do you think I made it of?"
7885And when its neck was shown, the thundering voice came again and said:"Do you see this great neck of mine?"
7885Are you in need of soothsaying?"
7885Are you satisfied, Guleesh, and will you do what we''re telling you?"
7885Are you sorry for hiring me, master?"
7885Are you sorry for it?"
7885Are you sorry for our agreement?"
7885At last they stood still, and a man of them said to Guleesh:"Guleesh, do you know where you are now?"
7885But about the time when he should drive the cattle homewards, who should he see coming but a great giant with his sword in his hand?
7885But does that hare come here still?"
7885But have you seen her, and are Deirdre''s hue and complexion as before?"
7885Connachar came out in haste and cried with wrath:"Who is there on the floor of fight, slaughtering my men?"
7885Deirdre heard the voice and said to her foster- mother:"O foster- mother, what cry is that?"
7885Did I not hear you speaking to the king''s son in the palace to- night?
7885Did n''t you see the gold with your own two eyes?"
7885Did you never hear tell of the Danes?"
7885Do you blame me for what I have done?"
7885Do you blame me, sir?"
7885Do you think for all the money in Ireland, I''d run the risk of seeing my lady tramp home on foot?"
7885Fin, who was dressed for the occasion as much like a boy as possible, got up, and bringing Cucullin out,"Are you strong?"
7885For the comic relief of this volume I have therefore had to turn mainly to the Irish peasant of the Pale; and what richer source could I draw from?
7885Guleesh, is n''t that a nice turn you did us, and we so kind to you?
7885Guleesh, my boy, are you here with us again?
7885Guleesh, you clown, you thief, that no good may happen you, why did you play that trick on us?"
7885Has n''t it kept me and mine for years?"
7885He called to speak to the master in the haggard, and said he,"What are servants asked to do in this country after aten their supper?"
7885He gave a cross look to the visitors, and says he to Jack,"What do you want here, my fine fellow?
7885He shouted,''Where art thou, ring?''
7885He sputtered it out, and cried,"Man o''the house, is n''t it a great shame for you to have any one in the room that would do such a nasty thing?"
7885Her husband forgot, and touched her rather roughly on the shoulder, saying,"Is this a time for laughter?"
7885Her husband tapped her on the shoulder, and asked her,"Why do you weep?"
7885How are you getting on with your woman?
7885I thought to myself that I was near my foe and far from my friends, and I called to the woman,''What are you doing here?''
7885I went in, and I said to her,''What was the matter that you were putting the knife on the neck of the child?''
7885In comes the giant, and he said:"Hast thou cleaned the byre, king''s son?"
7885Is he at home?"
7885It was a good trick you played on us last year?"
7885Just then we could be hearing the footsteps of the giant,''What shall I do?
7885Keep your toe in your pump, will you?
7885May I be so bold as to ask where yez are all going?"
7885May I make bold to ask how is your goose, King O''Toole?"
7885Maybe I wo n''t remember your kindness if ever I find you in hardship; and where in the world are you all going?"
7885Maybe you''re sorry for your bargain?"
7885My wings, are they not withered stumps?
7885Now, when they told Arthur how they had sped, Arthur said,"Which of these marvels will it be best for us to seek first?"
7885On a day of days, while he was fishing, there rose a sea- maiden at the side of his boat, and she asked him,"Are you getting much fish?"
7885Or has that devil made you really dumb, when he struck his nasty hand on your jaw?"
7885Out came the tanner:"How much for your hides, my good men?"
7885Said Gwrhyr,"Who is it that laments in this house of stone?"
7885Said Silver- tree,"Troutie, bonny little fellow, am not I the most beautiful queen in the world?"
7885Said Yspathaden Penkawr,"Is it thou that seekest my daughter?"
7885Said a man of them to him:"Are you coming with us to- night, Guleesh?"
7885Say, knowest thou aught of Mabon?"
7885Seeing her so vexed and so changed in the face, the old woman asked:"What''s the trouble that''s on you now?"
7885She asked the boy"Did you tell the master what I told you to tell him?"
7885She cried:"Naois, son of Uisnech, will you leave me?"
7885She rose up before him, and said:"Did n''t I tell you not to leave a bone of my body without stepping on it?
7885So Conn of the hundred fights said to him,"Is it to thy mind what the woman says, my son?"
7885Suddenly she paused, and said aloud:"Where are the women?
7885Thackeray?)
7885That vagabond, bad luck to him--""You mean Donald O''Neary?"
7885The eldest sister came home alone, and the husband asked,"Where is your sister?"
7885The giant asked him--"If thy father had that rod what would he do with it?"
7885The giant awoke and called,"Are you asleep?"
7885The son asked his father one day,"Is any one troubling you?"
7885The very letters that have spread through all Europe except Russia, are to be traced to the script of these Irish monks: why not certain folk- tales?
7885The woman said:"Whose else should they be?"
7885The wren threshed( what did he thresh with?
7885Then he said,''Where art thou, ring?''
7885There was once a farmer who was seeking a servant, and the wren met him and said:"What are you seeking?"
7885Well, the long and the short of it was that Donald let the hide go, and, that very evening, who but he should walk up to Hudden''s door?
7885What dress would you like?"
7885What has happened to you, Gelban?
7885What kind of soothsaying do you want?"
7885What''s the matter?"
7885What''s the matter?"
7885When he said me then,''Is the ring fitting thee?''
7885When she perceived that he was asleep, she set her mouth quietly to the hole that was in the lid, and she said to me''was I alive?''
7885When the giant came home, he said:"Hast thou thatched the byre, king''s son?"
7885When the sisters came home, the henwife asked:"Have you any news from the church?"
7885When the two sisters came home the henwife asked:"Have you any news to- day from the church?"
7885Where are you going?"
7885Where have you been so long?"
7885Where''s all your invention?
7885Which of the keys should I keep?"
7885Who is she, or how did you get her?"
7885Why say so when you were at home every Sunday?"
7885Why should n''t I have them all to myself?"
7885Why what has a poor old man like you to play for?"
7885Will you begin, if you please, and put in the thatch again, just as if you were doing it for your mother''s cabin?"
7885Will you lend me your best pair of scales?"
7885Would n''t it be a fine thing for a farmer to be marrying a princess, all dressed in gold and jewels?"
7885Would you have me meddle with the bastes of any neighbour, who might put me in the Stone Jug for it?"
7885Would you not sooner stay with me than with them?"
7885You would n''t wish to keep the luck all to yourself?"
7885an''who is it, avick?
7885and what would you be taking their feet off for?"
7885dost thou reproach Arthur?
7885he shouted;"how is this?
7885here I am, and what do you want with me?"
7885or mayhap you met the police, ill luck to them?"
7885said Fin again;"are you able to squeeze water out of that white stone?"
7885said Tom, bursting out laughing;"sure you do n''t think me to be such a fool as to believe that?"
7885said he, suddenly, as he looked again at the young girl,"in the name of God, who have you here?
7885said he;"is this where the great Fin M''Coul lives?"
7885said the giant;"but were n''t you impudent to come to my land and trouble me in this way?
7885says Ould Nick;"is that the way?
7885then,"says the king,"who are you?"
7885to take a woman with him that never said as much to him as,''How do you do?''
7885what for?"
7885what made your sons go to spring on my sons till my big son was killed by your children?
7885what shall I do?''
7885where did you get it?"
7885where?"
7885who was calling him, and not a soul in sight?
5667Ah, why didst thou act thus, leave me in such affliction, and plunge thyself into such distress, which, indeed, thy conduct hath almost deserved?
5667And pray what have you brought?
5667And what stratagem is it you would employ?
5667And where is he now?
5667Art thou from Cairo?
5667Art thou the destroyer of the monster?
5667But how earnest thou here?
5667But they who will attack you are not to be seen,replied the dervish;"how will you defend yourself against invisible persons?"
5667By no means,said Mazin;"canst thou point me out the way to it without making me forfeit my integrity?
5667Canst thou admit us to thy lodging,rejoined the sultan,"that we may see her?"
5667Canst thou doubt it?
5667Do you see that mountain?
5667Father,replied the sultan,"what occasion is there that I should learn a mean occupation, when I have the wealth of a kingdom at my command?"
5667From whence?
5667Hath not a prophet come unto you of your own nation? 5667 Heaven protect us,"said the cauzee,"how can men of our gravity dance?
5667How am I,said he,"to pass this sea, and enter the islands?"
5667How can you do that,replied the sultan,"when the other evening you could not prevent your guest escaping, though you had him by the nose?"
5667How comes it,rejoined the sovereign,"that you have not visited the sultan?
5667How should the sultan hear us?
5667I wish it may be so,replied the sultan;"but upon what ground do you build an expectation, the gratification of which appears to me so improbable?"
5667Inform me,replied the sultan,"of whom am I the son?"
5667Inform me,said Mazin,"what is the name of this country?"
5667Is it possible?
5667It is true he is our sovereign,exclaimed the youngest sister,"but how can he know whether we are starving or in affluence?"
5667Light of my eyes,said the husband,"didst thou meet with any thing amusing to- day in thy visit to the bath?
5667My daughter,said he to the princess,"where are the musicians whom I hear?
5667My dear friend,replied Abou Neeut,"why should we travel?
5667My good mother,replied the princess Perie- zadeh,"what are those?
5667My son,said the sage,"why shouldst thou do so?
5667No, by Allah, most liberal host,replied the other;"but who art thou?"
5667On what account?
5667On what account?
5667Sister,said prince Bahman,"what is become of all your mirth and gaiety?
5667Tell me how I can reward thee?
5667That is true,replied I;"but in the name of Allah, from whence dost thou come?"
5667True,said the old man of Hijjem,"yet if Providence puts affluence and distinction in our way, should we refuse it?"
5667Upon what dost thou travel?
5667Well, my son,said the Hijjemmee,"art thou now convinced of my skill, and my sincerity in offering to promote thy fortunes?"
5667Well, prince Ahmed,said she,"will you pledge your faith to me, as I do mine to you?"
5667Well,said the emperor,"have you spoken to your sister?
5667What are your professions?
5667What can I do more fortunate for myself, or with greater pleasure? 5667 What can that be?"
5667What can that blemish be?
5667What do you here, my dear brothers?
5667What dost thou mean to ask him?
5667What good,said he,"will my death do you or your employers?
5667What is that?
5667What more pressing business,said prince Perviz,"can we have than to be informed of what concerns us so much?
5667What motive can hinder you?
5667What novelty is this?
5667What was the cause of your flight?
5667Where art thou going?
5667Wherefore?
5667Why askest thou?
5667Woe to thee, rash boy,exclaimed Hyjauje;"who is he that can prevent my executing thee instantly?"
5667Abou Neeut having retired with him into a closet, said,"Knowest them me not, my old friend?"
5667After concerting among themselves, one of them coming up, said,"My lad, dost thou mean to sell this she- goat?"
5667Ali, who had arrived some time before Ahmed, asked Houssain how long he had been there?
5667And can it be supposed she will let it go unrevenged?
5667And has she consented to the pleasure I expect of seeing you?"
5667Are not the proofs I have repeatedly given you of my affection sufficient?"
5667Are they under ground, or invisible in the air?
5667Are ye not, however, fearful lest the sultan should hear you on his rounds, and punish you for an infringement of the laws?"
5667Are you not well?
5667At length Abou Neeut exclaimed,"Dost thou not recollect me, my brother?"
5667At this instant the sultan, who had been listening, entered hastily, and exclaimed,"Wherefore utter ye these affronting speeches?"
5667But do you think it an easy matter absolutely to refuse the emperor what he seems so earnestly to desire?
5667But may I, without being guilty of rudeness, presume to inquire by what adventure you know me?
5667But whence comest thou, youth?
5667By thy art and skill canst thou tell me what is become of him?
5667Do not you remember that you came to fetch the speaking bird, the singing tree, and the yellow water?
5667Do not you remember the promise you made to pay your duty to him occasionally?
5667Do they think it will be so easy to surprise, seize, and secure their persons?
5667H. By what means?
5667H. Dost thou guard the Koran?
5667H. Hast thou read and understood it?
5667H. Knowest thou thy God?
5667H. Thou hast spoken justly, young man; but inform me what God hath daily and nightly commanded us as obligatory to do?
5667H. Truly said; but what hath mostly dignified and enlightened Arabia?
5667H. What dost thou learn from it?
5667H. What to observe in each year?
5667H. What to perform in the course of life?
5667H. What tribe of Arabs is most famous for benevolence, and celebrated for liberality?
5667H. Wherefore?
5667H. Wherefore?
5667H. Which of the tribes have been most disgraceful to Arabia, and most oppressive to its inhabitants?
5667H. Who were the most skilful in horsemanship in all Arabia, the most valiant, and of best conduct in war?
5667H. Why so?
5667H. Why think you so?
5667H. With whom?
5667Has any body given you reason to be so melancholy?
5667Hast thou not already suffered sufficiently?"
5667Hast thou, indeed, young man,"said the sultan,"been at the Black Island?"
5667Having finished the above prayer, Mazin turning humbly towards his accursed betrayer, said in a supplicating tone,"What hast thou done, my father?
5667Having made his obeisance, the sultan returning his salute, said,"Father, what hast thou brought with thee?"
5667He concealed his agitation, and said,"To whom does this necklace belong?"
5667He made the customary obeisance to the governor, who returned his salute, and said,"Who art thou, boy?
5667He muttered and growled, saying,"For what, my lord, hast thou summoned me here?
5667He then ordered the genealogist into his presence, and said,"Dost thou think thou canst prove my descent?"
5667How can I be happy or merry, while they are perhaps involved in misery?"
5667How can I invite the sultan here?"
5667How can the creature approach the perfection of the Almighty?
5667However, the sultan knew her; and said to the labourer,"Wilt thou dispose of this damsel?"
5667I am doomed to death by thy arrival here; but what, my lord, was thy object in coming?"
5667I know the place well where these things are to be found: but what makes you ask me this question?"
5667I returned her salute, when she sat down, and said,"Sir, have you any choice Indian cloths?"
5667I said to myself,"What can mean this tent, which has a grand appearance, in so solitary a plain?"
5667I was enraged, and began to abuse her, saying,"Wherefore hast thou put upon me such a stratagem?"
5667I was lost in astonishment, and said to myself,"Do I dream, or am I awake?"
5667I was overcome with astonishment; but said,"Of what use is all this wealth in a depopulated city?
5667I wish to Heaven she had never addressed herself to me?
5667If I had been capable of such unworthy apathy, what would the court and city have thought of my love, or what your majesty?
5667If he be alive, where he is?
5667Immediately on their knocking the youngest sister called out,"Who is at the door?"
5667In short, how can we suppose that I should lay hold of a man so small, armed as he describes?
5667In the middle he found a flaw, at which he was astonished, and exclaimed to the sharper,"By what means couldst thou discover the blemish?"
5667Is it possible that ye have not put them to death?
5667Is it possible you should have forgotten that you have pledged your faith to me, or have you ceased to love one who is so passionately fond of you?
5667May not he imagine that he alone deserved her; and that your majesty, by leaving the match to be decided by chance, has done him injustice?
5667Mazin now arose, unloosed his wife''s hair, and pulling off the cap, appeared before her, when she exclaimed,"From whence didst thou come?"
5667My curiosity was raised; but I said within myself,"I am his guest, why should I intrude upon him by painful questions?"
5667On his appearance he said,"Thou canst trace the descent of man?"
5667On his coming to the mouth of the cave, the sultan addressed him, saying,"Whence comest thou, where art thou going, and what dost thou carry?"
5667On his recovery he turned to the vizier, and said,"Is it possible thou canst have spoken the truth?"
5667On their appearance, he said,"What have you done in execution of the charge I gave you?"
5667S. Does it fly from me, that I should guard it?
5667Shall I send for him to the presence?"
5667She addressed me, saying,"Young man, have you in your warehouse any female ornaments?"
5667She exclaimed,"What can you want at such a late hour, and where did you lodge last night?"
5667She replied,"Dost thou really love me?"
5667She replied,"Is it thy wish to know who slew the monster, and to reward the courageous hero?"
5667She said to him,"What disgust can I have given to you to ask me this permission?
5667She took it into her hand, and examined it on all sides; after which she exclaimed,"Didst thou really purchase this on my account?"
5667Some moments after, the fairy said to prince Ahmed,"Prince, there comes my brother; do you see him?"
5667Some said,"Where is that fool going?
5667The Hindoo, with great impudence, replied,"That she was his wife, and what had any one to do with his quarrel with her?"
5667The butcher now began to be somewhat alarmed, asking me who I was, and whence I came?
5667The cauzee laughed, and turning to the koord, said,"Friend, thou hast heard what has past; what further canst thou say?"
5667The fisherman replied,"My dear mistress, how shall I bear the least absence from you?"
5667The matron guessing that he was in fear of her, said to him,"What is thy name, what are thy wants?
5667The prince no sooner heard these words than he rubbed his hand over the ring, when a good genie appearing, said,"Prince, what are thy commands?"
5667The pupil, in astonishment, exclaimed,"My lord, this abode is a heap of ruins, how can I invite the sultan here, it would only disgrace us?"
5667The queen, trembling with alarm, said,"What dost thou ask of me?"
5667The sage exclaimed,"What have such as we to do, my son, with the daughters of sovereigns or of others?
5667The sage observing his distress was afflicted at it, and at length said to the youth,"Will one look at the princess satisfy thy wishes?"
5667The sultan addressed himself to the Hindoo, demanded who he was, and wherefore he ill treated the lady?
5667The sultan at these words exclaimed in agony,"Have ye slain them, or do they yet live?"
5667The sultan did so; when I said,"If I present two, will you give me your daughter?"
5667The sultan exclaimed,"Why answer ye not, and wherefore are ye silent?"
5667The sultan replied,"What reason have you for such a supposition?"
5667The sultan replied,"You have indeed judged truly, but inform me how happens it, that you have with you no male protectors?"
5667The sultan, after a long pause, again said to the two attendants,"Have you really put to death my innocent children with their guilty mother?"
5667The sultan, eager to shew his gratitude to the gallant youth, said to the princess,"Shouldst thou know thy deliverer wert thou to see him again?"
5667The sultan, upon hearing this, said to the vizier,"We must enter this house;"and knocked at the door, when a person cried out,"Who is there?"
5667The tyrant laughed, and continued his questions as follows: H. Wert thou ever in love?
5667Thus it happened to the persons above mentioned, but how was it with the affairs of Mazin?
5667Upon entering into her presence, Zobeide exclaimed,"Where have ye loitered, and what has been the cause of your unusually long stay at the hummaum?"
5667Upon this I replied,"My dear lady, how can I allot for you a proper dowry?"
5667Upon this Mazin exclaimed,"Wherefore, my lord, did you look at the book and then at me so earnestly?"
5667Upon this she frowned angrily upon me, and exclaimed,"What means that wound upon thy cheek?"
5667Upon this the young Syed said,"Thou ravest, O Hyjauje; who art thou that an angel should be commissioned for thy sake?"
5667Upon which the sultan exclaimed,"What fault appeared to thee in my mistress?"
5667Was it a reason sufficient for him not to cast his eyes on you, because she was somewhat younger?
5667We have at present all we want, and what can riches give more?"
5667What name do you call it by?"
5667When I had heard these words, I replied,"How, dear lady, dare I presume, who am not worthy to be your servant, to arrive at such an honour?"
5667When he appeared, the sultan said,"Art thou a judge of horses?"
5667When he beheld them he was struck with awe and dread; but recovering, he said to himself,"Why should I be afraid?
5667When he had finished his communication, I said,"But where is the abode of thy beloved and thy successful rival?"
5667When he had reached the palace he found the sultan expecting him; upon which he made his obeisance, and said,"Will my lord honour me by his company?"
5667When he had ruminated thus, he said,"I am acquainted with the properties of the cap, what are those of the drum?"
5667When she had rested a little, she said,"Were you not conversing about your unfortunate sister?
5667When the master of the colt appeared before him, the sultan inquired whether it was purchased of another person, or had been bred by himself?
5667When the sultan had entered the princess''s apartment, he said,"What can have happened which has occasioned you to send for me so suddenly?"
5667When they had rested a little, the fisherman perceiving the sultan, said,"Whence comest thou?"
5667Where could such a form as this have been created?"
5667Who ever saw it rain any thing but water?"
5667Who knows whether I shall ever see you again?
5667Why should you now doubt of the truth of what the holy woman told you?
5667Will not this step be injurious to that friendship?"
5667Will you permit me to visit her and look after my warehouse?"
5667added she,"is this the return you have made for the kind reception I gave you?
5667and did not you see, as you came along, the place covered with black stones?
5667and how can I be a sultan without subjects?"
5667and how you who live in the same neighbourhood should be so little known by me?"
5667and if I may hope ever to see him again?"
5667and is it thus thou hast estranged from me my beloved wife and innocent children?"
5667and that she invented them on purpose to deceive you, who had given her no cause to do so, but received her with so much goodness and civility?
5667art thou of this country?
5667but can ye reverse the decrees of God?"
5667can you favour me with a dance?"
5667didst thou not promise me enjoyment and pleasure?"
5667do you think she spoke to you of three things that were not in being?
5667exclaimed the walee,"dost thou dare to utter falsehoods before me?
5667has that accursed wretch betrayed thee, and torn thee from thy wife?"
5667have we not here affluence and ease, and what more can we enjoy in any part of the world?"
5667how could a buffalo bring forth a colt?"
5667my queen,"replied prince Ahmed,"do you say Schaibar is your brother?
5667or give him reason to flatter himself a moment with being allied to one of the most powerful monarchs in the world?
5667or has some misfortune befallen you?
5667prince,"cried she,"do you think I jest with you?
5667princess, what do I say?
5667replied the prince;"and what difficulties do you find in so doing?"
5667said he to himself,"has my fate brought me hither to deprive me of my liberty, which hitherto I have always preserved?
5667said he"and with what design were these cucumbers stuffed thus with pearls, since pearls are not to be eaten?"
5667said the boy?
5667said the father,"is it not enough that I have lost them, but thou also wilt rush into destruction?
5667shall I be your partner and you mine?"
5667shall I tear up this eminence by the roots, and hurl it beyond the mountains of Kaaf?"
5667what arms can I use to reduce him to submission?
5667what hast thou to say, and wherefore hast thou intruded thyself into the company of princes, as if thou wert invited?
5667what he is doing?
5667what would he have?
5667when the old woman entered; to whom she said,"Hast thou brought the young man?"
5667where can ye hide yourselves?"
5667where is he going?
5667who art thou, and of whom art thou the son?"
5667who will say to an unhappy Bulbul, Lodge?"
5664Alas,replied the princess,"how is it possible that I should execute such an act?
5664And for what,cried the lady, feigning astonishment,"would they have used you so cruelly?
5664And what did Imama to Ateca?
5664And what is that?
5664But tell me,replied he,"can you shoot with a bow?"
5664But wherein have I offended you?
5664But, Sir,said I,"may I presume to ask your majesty, if strangers be obliged to observe this law?"
5664But,resumed he,"how came you into my dominions, and from whence came you last?"
5664But,said the genie,"if I grant you the time you ask, I doubt you will never return?"
5664By what adventure,said she, fetching a deep sigh,"are you come hither?
5664Captain,said I,"was the merchant''s name, to whom those bales belonged, Sinbad?"
5664Dear cousin,I cried,"what is the meaning of this?"
5664Did not you sit down when you came hither?
5664Do you take heaven to be witness to this promise?
5664From whom,demanded the king,"have you the suggestion which you dare pronounce?
5664Genie,said he,"will not you keep the oath you just now made?
5664He your husband,replied he:"can you retain those thoughts so long?
5664Heavens,exclaimed the merchant,"how could I kill your son?
5664Honest man,said the vizier,"who art thou?"
5664How could you, said he,"resolve to bring me your own daughter?"
5664How little reason had I,said he,"to think that none was so unfortunate as myself?
5664How, madam,he demanded,"what then am I to believe?
5664How,said Buddir ad Deen,"must I be rifled; must I be imprisoned in a chest, and at last impaled, and all for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?
5664How?
5664I am a genie,said he, speaking to me,"son of the daughter of Eblis, prince of genies: is not this your hatchet, and are not these your cords?"
5664I own I am the man,replied Buddir ad Deen,"but pray what crime is that?"
5664If Ganem alone be guilty,thought he to himself,"why should the mother and the daughter, who are innocent, be punished?
5664If I do not know him,said the princess,"would you have me lie on purpose to ruin him?"
5664Inform me,said he,"for God''s sake, where I am, and what you would have?"
5664Is it possible that he does not perceive it?
5664Is it so?
5664Is it thus,asked the physician,"that you reward me for curing you?"
5664Is that your reward for the service I have rendered you?
5664Knowest thou,said the king, when he saw him,"why I sent for thee?"
5664Knowst thou not that lake?
5664Look,said the genie, shewing her Buddir ad Deen Houssun,"did you ever see a youth more beautiful?"
5664Madam,demanded the caliph,"where is the bundle of hair?"
5664May not I have so much time,said he,"as to take some money and jewels along with me?"
5664Mother,said he"for the love of God be pleased to tell me who is my father?"
5664My abused daughter,said he,"can you give me no farther light in this miraculous affair?"
5664My dear little one,said he,"what hast thou in thy bosom?"
5664My dear lord,cried she,"do not I deceive myself; is it certain that I hear you, and that you speak to me?"
5664My good lady,said he,"I was looking for your son, Ganem, is he here?"
5664My lord,said the Jew,"then you sell me for a thousand sequins the lading of the first of your ships that shall arrive in port?"
5664My lovely black,resumed the queen,"what do you mean by the root?"
5664No,said the younger"I will not consent to that; are we not brethren, and equal in title and dignity?
5664Potent monarch, to whom I am so much indebted,replied the king,"you think then that you are near your capital?"
5664Pray, Sister,said the beautiful portress,"come in, what do you stay for?
5664Princess,cried I,"what means all this?"
5664Sir,said he,"why would your majesty take my life?
5664That is strange,said the fisherman,"are you resolved to reward good with evil?
5664This is the history of myself and this hind: is it not one of the most wonderful and surprising?
5664Those admirable characters, are they not written by the hands of a man?
5664Those negroes,replied they,"eat men, and by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?"
5664Unhappy woman,said the sultan,"art thou worthy that I should answer thee?"
5664Very well,replied the fisherman,"shall I speak to you more civilly, and call you the owl of good luck?"
5664Was it not you,replied they,"that made the cream- tart you sold to the eunuch?"
5664Was it not you,said they,"that sold this eunuch the cream- tart?"
5664Well,cried Shumse ad Deen,"after all this, will you continue to deny that you entered the pastry- cook''s house, and ate there?"
5664Well,said Haroon al Rusheed, seeing him come into his closet,"have you executed my orders?"
5664Well,said the enchantress,"to pacify you, I am ready to execute your commands; would you have me restore him?"
5664Were you born blind of the right eye,continued she?
5664What do you mean, Sinbad?
5664What do you say?
5664What do you wait for?
5664What fable do you tell me?
5664What had the vizier done,demands the Grecian king,"to deserve punishment?"
5664What is it,demanded the king,"that makes it so valuable?"
5664What is the meaning of this,said Ganem''s mother;"do we carry the plague about us?
5664What is the meaning of this?
5664What misfortune befell the ass?
5664What then is become of her,demanded the caliph,"if she is not dead?"
5664What time do you require then?
5664What will I do?
5664What,cried she, much louder than before,"are the dead raised?
5664What,demanded she"hinders you from revealing the secret?"
5664What,said he,"can be the matter with the king of Tartary that he is so melancholy?
5664What,said the caliph,"are you not of the family?
5664Whither are you going?
5664Why, you wretch,exclaimed the vizier"was it not you that made the cream- tart you sent me?"
5664Woe be to thee,replied the genie,"hast thou the presumption to venture to marry my mistress?"
5664Yes,replied he,"I am the man; and who says any thing against it?
5664You believe him then to be dead?
5664You have travelled,said I,"and what have you gained by it?
5664Your stubbornness,resumed the vizier"will rouse my anger; why will you run headlong to your ruin?
5664After his arrival, he heard the ass say to the ox"Comrade, tell me, I pray you, what you intend to do to- morrow, when the labourer brings you meat?"
5664After the experience you have had of the little satisfaction there is in wedlock, is it possible you dare venture a second time?
5664And all this, for what crime?
5664And do you not agree that there is no wickedness equal to that of women?"
5664And what have I done to deserve one so wretched?"
5664And, in short, why do not you frighten them by bellowing aloud?
5664Another voice asked,"What need had the princess of the dervise''s prayers?"
5664Are these the actions of Moosulmauns, of persons who make a profession of probity, justice, and good works?"
5664Are you resolved to let me die, without affording me the comfort of hearing again from your own lips that you love me?
5664As soon as my wife heard me give this order, she exclaimed,"What are you about, husband?
5664At length he broke out in these words:"Beautiful Fetnah, may I give credit to what you tell me?
5664At these words all the children cried out,"Agib, what do you say?
5664At this answer, the furious genie told her,"You are a false woman, and speak not the truth; how came that axe and those cords there?"
5664Besides, I want to know what is become of my vest, my turban, and the bag of sequins I had at Cairo?"
5664Besides, can you think of leaving me, and adding to that sorrow with which I am already oppressed?
5664Blood is no less powerful than love in great minds; but why should we despair of seeing him again?
5664Buddir ad Deen, astonished at the sight, said with a pitiful tone,"Pray, good people, why do you serve me so?
5664But suppose I had discovered him, is it not easily seen that his conduct must have proceeded from absolute power?
5664But then, brother,"said he farther,"if this marriage should happen, would you expect that my son should settle a jointure on your daughter?"
5664But whither does this pleasing transport carry me?
5664But whose son am I?"
5664Can the wife of a sovereign be capable of such infamous conduct?
5664Can you not resolve us concerning the two black bitches and the lady that fainted away, who appears to have been so basely abused?"
5664Did I not just now set you at liberty, and have you already forgotten my services?"
5664Did not crook- back lie with you tonight?"
5664Did not you rise from me but now?
5664Did you really appear before my eyes, or was it only an illusion?"
5664Do not you and I know what is just?
5664Do you assure me that you will cure my leprosy without potion, or applying any external medicine?"
5664Do you know,"continued he,"that I am master of the secret to make you white, instead of being black as you are?"
5664Do you remember you ever saw me before?"
5664Does not thy barbarity surpass my vengeance?
5664Has any thing disquieted you?"
5664Has he any cause to complain of his reception?
5664Has not the genie a very faithful mistress?
5664Hast thou closed those eyes that evinced so much love, and were all my delight?
5664He addressed himself to the two former, and asked why the merchant who sat with them looked so melancholy?
5664He advanced towards the pan, and touching one of the fish with his staff, said with a terrible voice,"Fish, are you in your duty?"
5664He asked me who I was, and by what adventure I had come into his dominions?
5664He asked why they had disturbed his rest?
5664He caused the slave, who was not far off, to be brought immediately, and when he came,"Rascal,"said he,"where hadst thou this apple?"
5664He commanded her to rise, and having made her sit down, asked whether she had heard any news of Ganem?
5664He has perhaps cured you only in appearance, and not radically; who knows but the medicine he has given you, may in time have pernicious effects?"
5664He returned my salutation, and continued,"Is it possible you do not know me?"
5664He sent for the fisherman, and when he came, said to him,"Fisherman, the fish you have brought us, make me very uneasy; where did you catch them?"
5664He soon heard a voice, however, which said,"Do you know what honest man this is, to whom we have done this piece of service?"
5664He stepped towards the bed, and said to her,"Is it long since I left you?"
5664He went forthwith to his sister- in- law''s tent, and said to the eunuch,"Wretch, have you the impudence to abuse the trust I repose in you?"
5664How do you propose to effect your purpose?"
5664How is it possible that you, being this morning at Damascus, could be last night at Cairo?"
5664How it has happened that each of you has but one eye?
5664How then could I dare to complain?
5664Hump- back, who was enraged at Buddir ad Deen, suspecting him to be his rival, gave him a cross look, and said,"And thou, what dost thou wait for?
5664I also knew the captain; but being persuaded that he believed me to be drowned, I went, and asked him whose bales these were?
5664I asked him what reason he had thus to despair?
5664I believe such an act of violence was never heard of before; but against whom could I complain?
5664I called to him, and said,"Good slave, pr''ythee tell me where thou hadst this apple?"
5664I have only sent for you to know who you are, and to ask for what reason one of you, after severely whipping the two black bitches, wept with them?
5664I sat up, and asked her who she was?
5664I then asked them what they did in such a desert place?
5664I therefore answered the genie,"How should I know her, when I never saw her till now?"
5664I told him I had the head- ache, which I hoped would have satisfied him, but he took a candle, and saw my cheek was hurt:"How comes this wound?"
5664If thy own breast can not keep thy counsel, how canst thou expect the breast of another to be more faithful?''"
5664Is it from insensibility, or contempt?
5664Is it not just to kill him that has killed another?"
5664Is it not reasonable that, after all this I should enjoy a quiet and pleasant life?"
5664Is it not sufficient justification that he is accused of a design against your life?
5664Is it possible that a man could yesterday be at Bussorah, the same night at Cairo, and this morning at Damascus?
5664Is it possible they should be capable of taking a man''s life for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?
5664Is it possible, my son, that your quarrel should rise so high about an imaginary marriage?
5664Is the day of judgment come?
5664May I believe that the caliph really resigns you to Abou Ayoub''s son?"
5664Must fortune needs add new misfortunes to just complaints?"
5664Must the unjust and barbarous usage we have received render us odious to our fellow- citizens?
5664One of them said to the other,"Is not the queen wrong, not to love so amiable a prince?"
5664Or rather, did she not promise to see you, and restore those bitches to their natural shape?"
5664Perhaps it grieves him to be at such a distance from his dominions, or from the queen his wife?
5664Pray tell me what I am to think; whether my marriage with you is an illusion, or whether my absence from you is only a dream?"
5664Pray tell us your history, for it must be extraordinary; how did you venture yourself into this river, and whence did you come?"
5664She drew near them, and having overheard them speaking pretty loud, said,"Gentlemen, what is the subject of your conversation?
5664Some days after, not knowing who I was, he asked me if I understood any trade?
5664Such being the case, what a fool am I to kill myself with grief?
5664Supposing you could resolve to give him up for me, and that you would follow me, ought I to consent?
5664The caliph asked the criminals which of them it was that so cruelly murdered the lady, and threw her into the Tigris?
5664The caliph was not displeased with Fetnah for the freedom of these words;"But may I,"said he,"rely on the assurance you give me of Ganem''s virtue?"
5664The caliph, moved with compassion, said to the fisherman,"Hast thou the courage to go back and cast thy net once more?
5664The caliph, who heard this, came to him and the other calenders, and asked them what might be the meaning of all this?
5664The cock answered the dog''s reproof thus:"What, has our master so little sense?
5664The cock standing up on tiptoe, answered fiercely:"And why not to- day as well as other days?"
5664The eunuch perceiving he followed them, was extremely surprised:"You impertinent fellow,"said he, with an angry tone,"what do you want?"
5664The farmer''s daughter then came to us:"My good maid,"said I,"can you restore my son to his former shape?"
5664The fisherman then said to him,"I wish to know if you were actually in this vessel: Dare you swear it by the name of the great God?"
5664The king having asked what it was?
5664The lady immediately took up the veil, and delivered it to him, asking him whether he could read?
5664The lady, who was pleased to see his confusion, said, once more,"My lord, what do you wait for?"
5664The people who gathered pepper came to meet me as soon as they saw me, and asked me in Arabic who I was, and whence I came?
5664The pretended princess appeared that very moment, and perceiving she had missed her prey, exclaimed,"Fear nothing, prince: Who are you?
5664The sultan asked the fisherman, how far the lake might be from the palace?
5664The sultan caused to be brought to him a chessboard, and asked me by a sign if I understood that game, and would play with him?
5664The sultan, being much surprised, sent immediately for the fisherman, and said to him,"Friend, can not you bring me four more such fish?"
5664The unfortunate youth lifting up his head, exclaimed,"What news dost thou bring?"
5664The young man having recovered, looked all around, and not seeing what he sought, exclaimed,"What is become of you, charming Fetnah?
5664The young man turned his eyes towards me, and said,"My good lady, pray let me know who you are, and what has brought you to this desolate city?
5664This made me one day take the liberty to ask the king how it came to pass?
5664Unable, however, to withstand the earnest desire of being satisfied,"Ganem,"said she, with a trembling voice,"is it you I behold?"
5664Upon this I looked at him narrowly, and recognised him:"Ah, brother,"cried I, embracing him,"how could I know you in this condition?"
5664Upon this the sultan said again to his daughter,"How do you know that this prince has been transformed by enchantments into an ape?"
5664Upon which, turning to me,"And thou,"said he,"dost thou not know her?"
5664Was it not enough to be afflicted by the death of so dear a father?
5664Was there any need of staying a whole month after my return, before you sent me word where you were?"
5664What a wonderful change is this from evening to morning?"
5664What are you disputing about?"
5664What crime have I committed?"
5664What do you think of this plan?"
5664What has he done to obtain from thee a lot so agreeable?
5664What have I done?"
5664What impudence is this?
5664What is the matter?
5664What melancholy return have you received for your care and respect?
5664What shall I say to him at his return, when he inquires of me after her?"
5664What will the world say of such sanguinary violence?"
5664Whatever misfortune befalls me, I can not forbear asking, why you bedaubed your faces with black?
5664When he saw that the slave hesitated to obey him,"Why do you not strike?"
5664When she had done speaking, the caliph said to her,"I believe all you have told me; but why was it so long before you let me hear from you?
5664When the fisherman heard these words of the genie, he recovered his courage, and said to him,"Thou proud spirit, what is it you say?
5664When they come to fasten you to the stall, why do you not resist?
5664Where are they who enjoy quietly the happiness which they hold of her, and whose day is always clear and serene?"
5664Where does he live?
5664While she was thus bewailing herself, the grand vizier entered, and asked her if the fish were ready?
5664Whilst I was admiring its beauty, I heard from beneath the voice of a man, who immediately appeared, and asked me who I was?
5664Whither canst thou fly for refuge against the unjust prince who persecutes thee?
5664Who can assure me, that I shall be more successful than you have been?"
5664Who is he, that, notwithstanding the regard and respell he had for me, is in a miserable condition?
5664Whom do you seek?"
5664Why art thou not gone as well as the rest?
5664Will you absolutely take away the life of a poor innocent?"
5664Will you be pleased to allow me the consolation of giving her this last testimony of my affection?"
5664You know by what medicine, or rather by what miracle, he cured me of my leprosy: If he had had a design upon my life, why did he save me then?
5664You know the conditions on which these ladies consented to receive us, and which we agreed to observe; what will they say of us if we break them?
5664after the hideous sacrifice you have just consummated, can you see me with so much satisfaction?"
5664and do not you know that you are at one of the gates of Damascus?"
5664and why you are alone?"
5664dare you say that the vizier is not my father?"
5664demanded the dog;"what would you have him do?"
5664demanded the genie:"did you not take dates out of your wallet, and as you ate them, did not you throw the shells about in different directions?"
5664do not you think it very extraordinary?"
5664exclaimed Buddir ad Deen,"is it a capital crime to make a bad cream- tart?"
5664exclaimed the merchant,"can nothing prevail with you?
5664hast thou destroyed that excess of affection which he bare me?
5664he exclaimed,"whom can we trust in these times?
5664he replied in a passion,"have you lost your senses, daughter, that you make such a dangerous request?
5664how you came to be here?
5664in attempting the life of the object which I adore, hast thou not robbed me of mine?
5664is possible that you are still alive?
5664ladies, whither do you command me to go in my present condition?
5664madam,"answered Harem, concerned for himself than for Fetnah,"you only take care of me, what will become of you?"
5664madam,"exclaimed he, eagerly interrupting her,"what miracle has restored you to my sight?
5664my dear friend,"said she,"by your being here at this time of night you must be my husband''s comrade?"
5664my good lord, of what crime can I be guilty towards you, that you should take away my life?"
5664my lord,"replied the young man,"how is it possible but I should grieve, and my eyes be inexhaustible fountains of tears?"
5664replied he,"how do you think I should obtain the favour you wish me?
5664replied the fisherman,"why would you kill me?
5664replied the queen,"why do you reproach me thus?"
5664said Buddir ad Deen,"what do you mean to do with a stake?"
5664said he in a passion,"do you appear before me thus?
5664said he to himself,"I am scarcely out of my palace, and but just under the walls of Samarcand, and dare they put such an outrage upon me?
5664said he, rubbing his eyes,"am I asleep or awake?"
5664said he,"can you suffer me to die an ignominious and painful death?
5664said he,"must I suffer a death as cruel as it is ignominious, for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?"
5664said he,"unfortunate Buddir ad Deen, what will become of thee?
5664said he;"who placed you thus?"
5664said she,"does my child thus despise the work of my hands?
5664said she,"what will become of me?
5664said the first,"how should he?
5664said the genie to her, pointing at me,"is not this your gallant?"
5664said the genie,"he is the cause of thy being in the condition thou art justly in; and yet darest thou say thou cost not know him?"
5664said the vizier,"what favour?
5664said they,"what but the necessity of parting from you could thus afflict us?
5664says the genie,"if you have a mind to be informed, open the vessel: do you think that I can be in an humour to relate stories in so strait a prison?
5664shouldst thou not rather have remained at home, and quietly enjoyed the fruits of thy labour?"
5664what are they, madam?"
5664what did you hear?"
5664where are you at this time, whither has thy cruel fate led thee?
5664where are you?"
5664who can assure you of that?
5664whose this castle is?
5664why did you not let me perish miserably, rather than afford me your generous relief?
5664why do you not gore them with your horns, and shew that you arc angry, by striking your foot against the ground?
5664why dost not thou swallow up that monster so revolting to human nature, or rather why dost not thou swallow up both the lover and his mistress?"
5665Agreeable Maimoune,replied Danhasch,"may I presume to ask who this prince you speak of is?"
5665Alas,thought I,"this misfortune and affront are unsufferable; how shall I dare to return to Moussol?
5665Am not I unhappy to be born to dove, without hope of enjoying the object of my passion? 5665 Amgiad,"cried he,"what shall we do now?
5665And does this magnificent pavilion also belong to you?
5665And to whom, think you, belongs this slave?
5665And why, fool,said the man of the house,"do not you answer at first, when people ask you who is there?
5665Buddir ad Deen,said I to the merchant,"what is the price you must have for this stuff that belongs to me?"
5665But is what you say true?
5665But sir,said he,"will it not be more convenient for you to go home?"
5665Can you play upon it?
5665Children,said he to them,"are you all here?
5665Come, bring the ragout; I fancy you will like that as well as you did the lamb: Well, how do you relish it?
5665Commander of the true believers,replied the grand vizier,"if that is your intention, I wish to God she may play ill.""Why so?"
5665Cursed genie,replied Maimoune,"what hurt canst thou do me?
5665Dear sister,said they to her,"what has happened since we left you?
5665Devout adorers of fire,said he to them,"this is a happy day for us; where is Gazban?
5665Do you come to affront and contradict me,said the prince in a rage,"and to tell me to my face, that what I have told you is a dream?"
5665Do you really mean,said she,"that he is descended from the kings of Persia?"
5665Ever since I have known this young man,said I inwardly,"he has always appeared very polite; is it possible he can do this out of contempt?
5665Gentlemen,said he,"I am much troubled for that young man and lady; can you give me any tidings of them?"
5665Good man,replied the servant,"whence do you come that you ask me such a question?
5665Good people,replied the magistrate,"for what should I assassinate your master, whom I do not know and who has done me no harm?
5665Great queen,he replied, with tears in his eyes,"does your majesty ask what my name was formerly, or what it is now?"
5665Hagi Hassan,said he,"here is a slave whom I mean to sell; what will they give for her?"
5665How did they bear their punishment?
5665How did you manage,said he,"to avoid being taken by the watch?"
5665How know you,asked the jeweller,"that I have another house?"
5665How like you this bread,said the Barmecide;"do not you find it very good?"
5665How so?
5665How so?
5665How, sir,replied the princess, without giving him time to go on,"do you ask me if any one lay with me last night?
5665How,said my brother,"what have you to say against me?
5665How,thought I,"shall I get rid of this cursed barber?
5665I beseech you, madam,replied the fair slave,"what prejudice can this action of Noor ad Deen''s do to you or him?"
5665I sent for you,resumed the sultan,"to inform you that it is my intention to provide a proper marriage for you: what do you think of my design?"
5665I will call another barber, sir,replied he, with a coolness that put me out of all patience;"what reason have you to be angry with me?
5665In what can I serve you?
5665Is Schemselnihar then dead?
5665Is it bashfulness,said she,"that keeps you silent?
5665Is it possible that Scheich Ibrahim makes a custom of leaving it thus all night? 5665 Is it true,"demanded he,"that you are willing to sell it for fifty sherifs,?"
5665Is it true,demanded the Barmecide,"that you are fasting till now?
5665Is not this she,said he,"that the sultan my father would have had me marry?
5665Is there any thing, my charming lady, wanting to render the pleasure of the evening more complete?
5665Is this garden your own?
5665It is wine then you mean?
5665Jaaffier,said he to the grand vizier,"what excuse have you for the door''s being open at this unseasonable hour?"
5665Madam,said he,"how could you live with such wicked people, as I have so justly revenged myself upon?"
5665Madam,said she,"may I presume to ask you the occasion of your concern; and what accident has happened in the bath, to make you leave it so soon?"
5665May one ask,said I,"by what mischance you lost your right hand?"
5665Miserable debauchee,cried he,"wouldst thou have me believe thou hast any thing else left to make money of but thy slave?"
5665My lord,replied the slave,"I swear I know of no such lady; and how should she come in without my knowledge, since I lay at the door?"
5665Scheich Ibrahim,said Noor ad Deen, in great surprise,"did you not tell us that this was your garden?"
5665Silent man,said he to him,"I understand that you know wonderful stories, will you tell me some of them?"
5665Silent man,said the sultan,"why do you laugh?"
5665Sir,exclaimed one of the domestics,"will you listen to a robber, who enters people''s houses to plunder and murder them?
5665Sir,said the barber,"pray what do you mean?
5665Sirrah,said Amgiad, with a fierce tone, and angry look,"where have you been?
5665Softly, sir,said he, very calmly, without being moved by my anger:"are you not afraid of a relapse?
5665Son,said she,"I beg of you, if it be not disagreeable, to tell me what reason you have for your great aversion to marriage?
5665Tell me,said the princess,"what is become of the young man that has passed the night with me, and whom I love with all my soul?"
5665The lady is in the right,answered Scheich Ibrahim;"but what can you do with your fish, unless it were dressed?
5665Vizier,said the king immediately,"look yonder; what is the meaning of those horsemen?"
5665Well, sir,said she,"are you now convinced of the truth of what I told you?"
5665Well,said the king,"in what condition did you find my son?"
5665What do you mean?
5665What do you mean?
5665What do you want, my son?
5665What harm could your master do to me,replied the cauzee,"to oblige me to abuse him at that rate?
5665What hast thou got in these trunks?
5665What is it,demanded the prince,"that could give my father so much uneasiness?"
5665What is that? 5665 What is the reason I must be gone so soon?"
5665What liquor would you have?
5665What mean you, sir,said some that were nearest to him,"thus to expose a life of such promising expectations to certain death?
5665What riotous doings are here?
5665What shall I do?
5665What urgent affair,demanded Noor ad Deen,"obliges you to be going so soon?"
5665What will become of me?
5665What will you do with me then?
5665What, son,exclaimed Fatima;"have you then more reasons after those you have already alleged?
5665Where are you going?
5665Where is the fair Persian, then?
5665Why do you not open the gate then,demanded the lady;"what do you wait for?"
5665Why do you sigh and weep so bitterly?
5665Why, madam?
5665Why,said my brother,"can not a man carry a knife about him without being a robber?
5665Why,said the lady in surprise,"do you use me so?
5665You jest, sir,said he;"if your friends have invited you to a feast, what should prevent you from allowing me to go with you?
5665You were about,added he,"to put to death an innocent person; for how can he be guilty of the death of a man who was dead before he touched him?
5665replied Scheich:what more service can I do you?"
5665â � � As we went along, one of those that had charge of us demanded of me who I was? 5665 About the middle of the night, the miller came to my brother, and said,Neighbour, are you asleep?
5665After supper the men asked him, if he knew whom he spoke to?
5665Am I not handsome and agreeable?"
5665Amgiad drank and rose:"Where are you going?"
5665Amgiad then demanded how far it was to the isle of Ebene?
5665And how can I, when I am taken up with your dear image, express to that prince the joy which he always observed in my eyes whenever he came to see me?
5665As my brother went out of the house, two blind men, his companions, were going by, knew him by his voice, and asked him what was the matter?
5665As soon as I saw the young man, I intreated him to alight, and asked him if he would not take his money?
5665As soon as the prince saw him, he asked earnestly what news he had to communicate?
5665At that instant his mother arrived, and catching hold of the vizier''s arm, cried,"Sir, what are you doing?"
5665At the end of the year he took him aside, and said to him;"My son, have you thoroughly considered what I proposed to you last year about marrying?
5665Besides, what is become of Schemselnihar and the prince of Persia?
5665But before he had time to answer, the master of the house exclaimed,"Is it thus you honour my table?
5665But how could she get into this tower without my consent?
5665But suppose me so vile a wretch, could I do it without being guilty of perjury, after the oath I have taken to my late father never to sell you?
5665But tell me what sort of men were your brothers, were they like you?"
5665But the cursed barber followed me close, crying,"Stay, sir; why do you run so fast?
5665But where shall I seek her?
5665But why do I talk of that?
5665Can I relish his kind words and caresses?
5665Can I see the caliph familiar with the objets of my love, and not die of grief?
5665Can my happiness be greater in this world, than to have you on one side of me, and my glass on the other?"
5665Can not the heads you see on all the gates of this city deter you from such an undertaking?
5665Can there happen a greater misfortune to him or me?"
5665Canst thou flatter thyself so far as to believe that the trifling adventures of a young debauchee are more interesting than those of my jester?
5665Could I, after the civility I shewed thee, expect such inhuman and barbarous usage?
5665Did I not tell you truly, that you would expose your life by your obstinate refusal to let me go with you?
5665Did not he throw himself into danger, and could he have come off so well without my assistance?
5665Did not their wisdom, their modesty, their obedience, their submission to thy will in all things, their virtue, all plead in their behalf?
5665Do you doubt the effect of my promise?
5665Do you see this charming beauty?
5665Do you think I would suffer such a polluted wretch to poison me?
5665Does not all that you behold point out to you that it is the palace of a Barmecide?"
5665Does not your majesty find it more surprising than that of the hunch- back buffoon?
5665Dost thou think I am as perfidious as thyself, and capable of breaking the solemn oath I have made?
5665Had I not better have tarried in Bagdad, and awaited my death?"
5665Has Ebn Thaher, who was all my comfort, in whom I put all my confidence, left me?
5665Has he any reason to complain of and abuse me?
5665Have I given you such slender proofs of my love, that you should think me capable of so base an action?
5665Have I unthinkingly given you any occasion of uneasiness?
5665Have you seen her confidant?
5665He asked them where his mother was?
5665He then demanded of him who he was, and whence he had come?
5665He was going to give him another blow, but the Barmecide holding up his hand to ward it off, cried,"Are you mad?"
5665How came she here, and by what conveyance, without my consent?
5665How came the lady hither who lay with me to- night, and who brought her?"
5665How came you to know her?"
5665How can I appear abroad again without moustaches?"
5665How can I have contributed to it?''
5665How shall I dare appear before my princess without her talisman?"
5665How will you now carry on your correspondence with Schemselnihar?
5665Hypocritical hag, do not you remember?"
5665I am a poet, I am an architect; and what is it I am not?
5665I answered, â � � Perhaps it may, and if you will permit me, I will try the remedy.''?
5665I asked them, what brought them there?
5665I asked,"wherein have I deserved your displeasure?"
5665I said to him,"Pardon, Sir, the liberty I take in asking you what reason you have for not using your right hand?
5665I suffered myself to be bound as well as the rest, without speaking one word: for what would it have availed to have spoken, or made any resistance?
5665I think you told me you left him behind in the city of the idolaters; can you tell me what is his employment there?"
5665If he is, how came he in, or who could have introduced him?"
5665If you speak of the Nile, where is there a more wonderful river?
5665Is he in my house?
5665Is it just, tell me, to impute a misfortune to persons who have no ways contributed towards it?
5665Is it possible they can be insensible of the danger of their correspondence?
5665Is it possible, sir, that you took me for one of those impudent beggars who push into people''s houses to ask alms?
5665Is not Grand Cairo the largest, the most populous, and the richest city in the world?
5665Kummir al Zummaun entered, and demanded of the gardener why he was so cautious?
5665Maimoune now cried out to Danhasch,"Ah, cursed genie, art thou not now convinced how much thy princess is inferior to my prince?
5665May I flatter myself that yours have the same impatience to see me?
5665Must so ardent a passion as mine be disturbed with so potent a rival?
5665My brother made no answer, and knocked a second time: the master of the house asked again and again,"Who is there?"
5665Never was grief equal to Kummir all Zummaun''s, when he recovered from his fit:"Barbarous father,"cried he,"what hast thou done?
5665Noor ad Deen hearing him first, told Scheich Ibrahim of it, who asked who was there?
5665Noor ad Deen was loth to resort to this expedient; but what could he do in the necessitous circumstances to which he was reduced?
5665On his arrival there, Kummir al Zummaun inquired if he had done as commanded?
5665One day he knocked thus, and the master of the house, who was alone, cried,"Who is there?"
5665One day, as I sat taking the cool air at my gate, a very handsome, well- dressed lady came to me, and asked if I did not sell stuffs?
5665Or do you come on purpose to tell me you no longer love me?"
5665Or is it want of confidence in me?
5665See what has happened to you, by your own fault; and if I had not resolutely followed, to see whither you went, what would have become of you?
5665Seeing a handsome young man, she lifted up her veil, asked him with a smiling air, and bewitching look, whither he was going?
5665Seeing he did not enter, she asked,"Why do not you come into your house?"
5665Shall I go down the hills and valleys which I have passed overt''Shall I wander in darkness?
5665She asked who he was, and what he cried for?
5665She is not afraid to expose her life for me, and would you have me regard mine?
5665She returned a third time; and at that interview, when we were both warm with wine, she spoke thus:"My dear love, what do you think of me?
5665She shook him several times, and finding he did not awake, exclaimed,"What is come to thee?
5665Tell me then, wandering spirit, whence thou comest, what thou hast seen, and what thou hast done this night?"
5665Tell me, I beseech you, how I shall reclaim a disposition so rebellious to my will?"
5665Tell me, I conjure you,"added he,"what cruel lady is this, who forces people to love her, without giving them time to reflect?"
5665Tell us truly who you are?"
5665The caliph fell a laughing at his astonishment; and calling to him,"Scheich Ibrahim,"said he,"What dost thou want?
5665The caliph fell a laughing; by which the vizier recognising him,"Commander of the true believers,"said he,"is it possible it can be you?
5665The captain in his turn demanded of the prince, whether he was not a debtor of the king of Ebene?
5665The commander of the brigade demanded of the prince, Schemselnihar, and the jeweller, who they were, and whence they had come so late?
5665The eunuch redoubling his pace, with difficulty got up to him,"Wither so fast?""
5665The first question the vizier asked was, If Noor ad Deen was living?
5665The jeweller alarmed, asked her what was the matter?
5665The jeweller was much surprised at this resolution of the confidant, and said,"Certainly you do not consider that the caliph will never suffer this?"
5665The judge did not give ear to all that was said; but asked the cavalier if he suspected any body else beside me?
5665The judge perceiving that he looked upon him with his eyes open, was much surprised, and said to him,"Rogue, what is the meaning of this miracle?"
5665The lady loves you, and has a mind to make you happy; and will you, for a nasty whisker, renounce the most delicious favours that man can obtain?"
5665The lady, on the contrary, transported at the sight, exclaimed,"How, my lord, did you fear there was nothing ready?
5665The neighbours collected, and asked what assistance he wanted?
5665The prince, vexed to the heart at having taken so much pains to no purpose, thought of returning;"But,"said he to himself,"which way shall I return?
5665The princess demanded how much the fifty jars might be worth in the isle of Ebene?
5665The queen answered,"Have you two names then?"
5665The sultan perceiving his constraint, addressed him with great mildness,"Do you know, son, for what reason I have sent for you?"
5665The sultan smiled at the barber''s freedom, and replied,"Why do you ask?"
5665The vizier having stayed some time, and finding none of the merchants outbid him,"What do you stay for?"
5665The wicked old woman came running at the noise, and my brother seizing her, said to her,"Treacherous wretch, do not you know me?"
5665They insolently said to him,"You cursed cauzee, what reason have you to assassinate our master?
5665Thou oughtest also to remember what another of our books says, â � � What signifies if one dies the next day after the death of his enemy?''"
5665Was it you that took the gentleman''s purse from him?
5665Was there ever finer singing, or better playing upon the lute?
5665What answer could the jeweller have made in the condition he was in?
5665What can be the reason he does not use his right hand?"
5665What could I say when I saw myself so cruelly delayed?
5665What crime can he have committed, that a man of his high rank can deserve to be treated thus rigorously?"
5665What has he done to you?"
5665What have I done to subject myself to the severe law of not being able to join with the only person I love?"
5665What have you been doing, that you came no sooner?"
5665What have you done to kill this man?"
5665What proportion is there between the punishment and the crime?
5665What says she to you?"
5665What water was ever lighter or more delicious?
5665What will it be when you are obliged to part?
5665When Bahader and Amgiad were in the court, Bahader demanded of the prince, how the lady came into his house?
5665When Noor ad Deen came aboard, the first question he asked was, whither the vessel was bound?
5665When Noor ad Deen had ended his story,"And whither are you going now?"
5665When she had taken her seat, she asked him, whether that was his house?
5665When the officers brought him before the magistrate, he asked him where he had the goods which he had carried home the preceding evening?
5665When the thieves were gone, the prince said to the jeweller,"What think you of our adventure and condition?
5665When they approached, she arose and went to meet Mesrour, who advanced first; she asked what news he brought?
5665When they had recovered, the first thing Schemselnihar did was to look about: and not seeing Ebn Thaher, she asked, with eagerness, where he was?
5665When they reached the chamber, the man let go his hand, and sitting down, asked him again what he wanted?
5665When will the time come that I shall enjoy it without fear of a separation?
5665Whither do you go, sir?
5665Who could ever have believed, that persons so highly obliged to me, and on whom I have spent my estate, could have used me so ungratefully?
5665Who knows but he has brought her himself, and is hidden behind the hangings, to observe me, and make me ashamed of my dissimulation?
5665Why did not you request money of me, and I would have lent it you?
5665Why did you not take care to wash your hands after eating of that cursed dish?"
5665Why do you give any body the trouble to come and open the door when they speak to you?"
5665Will not the arrival of the caliph put me in mind of your departure?
5665Will you do me the honour to come to my residence?
5665Will you stain your hands and your palace with your own blood?
5665Will you still refuse me that pleasure I expect from your obedience, and suffer me to die without affording me that satisfaction?"
5665Would it not have been more for his honour and quiet that he had never run such a risk?"
5665You would have me then believe all you have told me?
5665Your company alone relieves me; but I conjure you not to dissemble with me: what news do you bring of Schemselnihar?
5665and how durst Scheich Ibrahim give them admittance, and partake of the diversion with them?
5665and why they broke open his door?
5665and will my strength bear me out?
5665answered she trembling,"who are you?
5665as soon as he had perused it through,"is this the fidelity thou owest thy master and thy king?"
5665asked the lady;"and why do you take the cup with your left hand, rather than your right?"
5665brother, are you one of those who believe me mad?
5665brother,"said Assad,"we have so little time to live, what need have we to quench our thirst?
5665but to no purpose, no one answered; upon which he came down, opened the door, and asked my brother what he wanted?
5665continued he,"how do I know she is alive?"
5665cried Noor ad Deen,"is it possible you can entertain such a thought?
5665cried she,"is it you the king my father has designed me for a husband?
5665cried they, laying hold of him,"and dare you say that you are not a robber?"
5665daughter,"said the king,"has any one lain with you last night?"
5665did you not tell me you had forsworn wine?
5665dost thou deserve to live after the execrable crime thou hast committed?
5665exclaimed my brother,"why do you beat me?"
5665hast thou at last thrown thy father from the highest pinnacle of happiness into a misfortune that must inevitably involve thee also in his ruin?
5665have any of you any more business to do in the city?
5665have you the insolence to talk thus to your father and sultan?"
5665how would you have us go?"
5665insolent,"said he,"darest thou insult me yet?
5665is that charming prince then dead?
5665or have you left any thing behind you?"
5665or shall we flatter ourselves that we may ever see it?
5665question, after my son has been with you alone in your chamber?
5665replied I; â � � did not you tell me the other day, that he sat down before your window when you opened it to water your flower- pot?
5665replied Scheich Ibrahim--"Sherbet?
5665replied Scheich Ibrahim;"who are you, and whence came you?"
5665replied Schemselnihar,"You, who know the cause of my tears, have you no pity for my unfortunate condition?
5665replied he,"is that wretch still living?
5665replied the gardener:"do you imagine I will take these riches as mine?
5665replied the vizier,"could you think me capable of being so extremely afflicted at losing ten thousand pieces of gold?
5665said I,"will you have done, and begin to shave me?"
5665said he,"I thought the rats and mice ate my butter and tallow; but it is you who come down the chimney to rob me?
5665said he,"Scheich Ibrahim, have I caught you at last?
5665said he,"is it thus that a Christian dares to assassinate a Mussulmaun?"
5665said she,"what is the meaning of this?
5665said the caliph to him:"who are these people that have presumed to take the liberty of diverting themselves in my garden and pavilion?
5665said the prince,"do you not awake at these testimonies of love?"
5665said they to them;"do you not see that one is a vizier, the other a vizier''s son?
5665was there ever a greater resemblance?"
5665whom dost thou look after?"
5665you bring me the news of my son''s death?"
5665â � � Do you believe,''said she, â � � that the hopes of seeing me would at all contribute to rescue him from his danger?''
5665â � � Has he actually no other disorder than what is occasioned by his love of me?''
5665â � � How?''
5665â � � Is your account true?''
5665â � � My good mother,''demanded she â � � what is the matter with you, why are you so cast down?''
5665â � � Why would you require of me,''said she, with a profound sigh, â � � to renew my grief?
5666Abdallah,( so was the old man named) said she to him,"tell me, I beseech thee, does that beautiful and charming slave belong to thee?
5666Almost two- and- twenty years,replied Mobarec;"but how can you convince me that you are his son?"
5666Am I awake, or do I sleep?
5666And what may that reason be, sir,replied Ali Baba,"if I may be so bold as to ask you?"
5666And what more is there?
5666And what,added she, addressing herself to her treasurer,"did I order you to give her?"
5666Are all my sons,demanded he,"in the tower?"
5666Are you olive- merchants?
5666But, my lord,said he,"suppose I should be so fortunate as to meet with such a maid as you require, how shall I know that I have found her?"
5666But,answered the caliph,"do you know one thing?
5666Child,said she,"to whom are we obliged for this great plenty and liberality?
5666Do not lie now,said he,"but tell me truly who I am?"
5666Father,said she,"will you not oblige me so far as to make me a present of this young man?
5666Friend Ali Khaujeh,said he,"when you brought your jar to me did I touch it?
5666From whence come you?
5666Good woman,said he,"do you not perceive I have bantered you all this while?
5666Have you forgotten already what we agreed on? 5666 Ho, brother Abou Hassan,"said he,"is it you?
5666How can we,answered Zeyn,"when we have no boat?"
5666How long is it since you left my father''s court?
5666How many of these pieces,added he,"have you?
5666How, brother?
5666If it be so,answered the cauzee,"look into that jar, and tell me how long it is since those olives were put into it?"
5666Is the question at present,replied Zobeide,"if your garden is more valuable than my palace?
5666It is true,said I to her,"we live but poorly; but what have the rich which we have not?
5666Mesrour,said he, to the eunuch,"what do you think of the princess''s discourse?
5666Mother,replied he,"how do you know the sultan has been guilty of a breach of promise?"
5666Mother,said he,"have I an uncle?"
5666My brave boys,said the vizier,"which of you was the cauzee when you played together last night?"
5666My dear husband, what have you done?
5666My good mother,said the princess,"what bird is a roe, and where may one get an egg?"
5666My son,said she to him,"would you go into Egypt on the faith of an illusive dream?"
5666No indeed,said the wife,"I have not been there; that was too far off, and if I had gone, do you think I should have found any?
5666Princes,cried he,"am I not deceived?
5666Sir,said Codadad,"give me leave to ask how you could know the adventure of the castle?
5666Sir,said the old man, stopping him,"may I presume to ask from what part of the world you come?"
5666Sire,cried his friends, the moment he joined them,"who has insulted you?
5666That sovereign,said Mobarec,"was formerly my master; but, my lord, I never knew of any children he had: what is your age?"
5666The sorceress,said some,"has got a new subject to exercise her wickedness upon; will heaven never deliver the world from her tyranny?"
5666Vizier,replied the sultan,"why will you have it to be enchantment?
5666Well daughter,said he,"are you in a better humour than yesterday?"
5666Well, Alla ad Deen,replied the magician,"what business do you follow?
5666Well, I suppose,said the caliph,"you wish to have a stop put to this disorder?"
5666Well, brother,said she, with great impatience,"what news do you bring me of my husband?
5666Well, giggler,said the princess,"will you tell me what you laugh at?"
5666Well, mother,said he,"may I entertain any hopes, or must I die with despair?"
5666Well, my son,said she, wiping her tears,"how do you do, and how do you find yourself?
5666Well, then, sorry slave,said Zobeide to Mesrour, in passion,"what have you to say to all this?
5666Well, vizier,said he aloud,"who do you think it can be that has sent me so extraordinary a present, and neither of us know?
5666Well,continued the sultan,"what sayst thou to such a present?
5666Well,said the sultan,: have you seen Alla ad Deen''s palace?"
5666What assurance do you require?
5666What can be the meaning of this mark?
5666What could you sew up a dead body for? 5666 What do I hear?"
5666What is that bit of lead worth,said he,"a farthing?
5666What is that, good mother?
5666What is the matter with you, son?
5666What would you do if you were?
5666What would you have me do with it?
5666What wouldst thou have me to do with him,answered the citizen,"but roast and eat him?"
5666What wouldst thou have?
5666What, Abou Hassan,said he, continuing to laugh aloud,"hast thou conspired against my life, to kill me a second time with laughing?
5666Where are you, my brave lads,cried he,"old companions of my watchings, inroads, and labour?
5666Where is she?
5666Where,says she,"can he get so many large gold trays, and such precious stones to fill them?
5666Who is this difficult man,said she,"who eats no salt with his meat?
5666Why are you so altered, so dejected, and so different from yourself? 5666 Why not, madam,"answered Zeyn,"do you imagine all dreams are chimerical?
5666Why should I not give so much?
5666Why you,answered his mother very mildly;"are not you Abou Hassan my son?
5666Why, are we not at Grand Cairo?
5666You are in the right,answered the prince;"but how shall we explore where they are?"
5666You are skilled then in physiognomy?
5666Abou Hassan continued to beat her, at every stroke asking her if he was the commander of the faithful?
5666Accordingly, he set out again for his kingdom, and as soon as he arrived there, the queen asked him, whether he returned well pleased?
5666After several compliments had passed on both sides, Boubekir said to the prince,"Sir, do you design to stay long at Bagdad?"
5666After the proof we have had of his riches, can we think it strange, that he should raise a palace in so short a time?
5666Ali Khaujeh,"said he, addressing himself to the boy who acted that part,"have you brought the jar?"
5666Alla ad Deen got up trembling, and with tears in his eyes, said to the magician,"What have I done, uncle, to be treated in this severe manner?"
5666Am I come to the court of Harran to be the occasion of giving the sultan so much anxiety?"
5666And if I could, can I undertake it without exposing so much gold and treasure to him who hath already enriched himself out of it?
5666And if you had any that were worthy of the least attention of so great a monarch, what proportion could they bear to the favour you would ask?
5666And ought I not to bestow her on one who values her at so great price?"
5666And who your nephew?
5666And will you not own that you have lost your wager?"
5666Are you all here alive?
5666Are you allied by blood or love?"
5666Are you fallen into the hands of our enemies?
5666Are you of any trade?"
5666Are you worthy of it?
5666As for her beauty, I can depend on you; but what assurance can you give me in relation to her virtue?"
5666As he expected what had happened at Ali Baba''s might make a great noise, he asked his host what news there was in the city?
5666As soon as he was come into the market, a citizen stops him, and asked how much he would have for his bird?
5666As soon as she saw the surgeon, she asked him eagerly, what news he had to tell her of Codadad?
5666At last he got up, opened the lattice, and putting out his head, cried"Abou Hassan, Abou Hassan, have you a mind to kill me with laughing?"
5666At that summons the genie appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
5666But how can you speak to me if you are dumb?
5666But if I should make you a present of a purse of two hundred pieces of gold, would not you make a good use of it?
5666But is that your case?
5666But now I am speaking of the palace, pray how do you like it?
5666But to come to what most particularly concerns me; tell me, I conjure you, how so wicked and perfidious a man treats you?"
5666But what presents have you to make?
5666But where will he get so many such slaves as the sultan requires?
5666But who,"added he, looking upon the sultan my husband,"is that man?
5666But will he not have some one to lament?
5666But, madam,"continued he,"let us drop this discourse; and since I have eaten of your cake, would you do me the favour to taste mine?"
5666Can I believe these are your brothers who have treated you so unmercifully, those brothers whom thy valour had saved?
5666Can not these inspire you with joy and pleasure, and make you forget the fancies of an imagination disturbed by what can have been only a dream?"
5666Codadad, my dear Codadad,"cried she,"is it you whom I behold just departing this life?
5666Could I guess that a sandman should come by that very day, my wife have no money, and would make such an exchange?
5666Could you conceive a thought of aspiring in marriage to a princess, the daughter of so powerful a monarch as myself?
5666Did ever a son so well brought up as you dare to strike his mother?
5666Did you ever tell me that such a sum was in the jar?
5666Do not we breathe the same air, enjoy the same light and the same warmth of the sun?
5666Do not women sometimes lose their senses; for you have heard and seen all as well as myself?"
5666Do not you hear the trumpets of congratulation, and concerts of the finest music?
5666Do not you think with me, that it would be complete if a roe''s egg were hung up in the midst of the dome?"
5666Do you know what she wants?"
5666Do you mourn for your country, your friends or your relations?
5666Do you not know it?
5666Do you not know that â � � walls have ears?''"
5666Do you not remember the evening we spent together at your house this day month, where you did me the honour to treat me very generously?"
5666Do you not think the first person I should speak to would take me for a mad woman, and chastise me as I should deserve?
5666Do you think him worthy of the princess Buddir al Buddoor, my daughter?"
5666Do you think you have merited the honour you would have me ask for you?
5666Give me leave to embrace you?"
5666God confound thee, Satan?
5666Has the sultan been made acquainted with our poverty, and had compassion on us?"
5666Have I not always preferred your will to my own?
5666Have any of my brothers, repenting, owned it to you?"
5666Have not you been an eye- witness of what it has procured us?
5666Have you any other commands?"
5666Have you renounced all those whims and fancies which the devil had put into your head?"
5666He asked Morgiana, who opened the door, and had let all things stand as they were, that he might see them, the reason of it?
5666He asked the princess where Codadad''s widow had taken up her lodging?
5666He clapped his hands before his eyes, and lowering his head, said to himself,"What means all this?
5666He could not check his anger:"Indiscreet stranger,"said he to Codadad,"why did you let my sons go without bearing them company?
5666Her sister- in- law asked her, whether she would have a great or a small one?
5666How came that vile genie to address himself to me, and not to you, to whom he had appeared before in the cave?"
5666How came this thought into your head, to surprise Zobeide and me thus, when we least thought of such a trick?"
5666How can I doubt, since you still torment me with silence, after having for a whole year in vain supplicated you to speak?
5666How can I open my mouth to make the proposal to the sultan?
5666How do we know but that this unknown person is some villain, who has committed a robbery in his own country, and comes hither to enjoy himself?
5666How have you distinguished yourself?
5666I desire you only to tell me what he has done with the lamp, and where he has put it?"
5666I had best return to Bussorah; what should I do here any longer?
5666I had just embraced him and bade him adieu; but as I turned about from him, I said,"What will you do with that little box of ointment?
5666I immediately jumped on the counter, and the baker throwing the money down before me, said,"See, and tell me which of these pieces is bad?"
5666I separated it presently from the others, and setting my paw upon it, looked in the woman''s face, as much as to say,"Is it not so?"
5666I took the oil- pot, went directly to the jar which stood nearest to me; and when I came to it, heard a voice within, saying, â � � Is it time?''
5666If you have done nothing to merit so high a distinction, nor are worthy of it, with what face shall I ask it?
5666In what province, country, or part of the world, shall I find that and my dear princess, whom the sultan expects from me?
5666Instead of answering, the peasant demanded of the citizen what he would do with him in case he should buy him?
5666Is it me you call by that name?"
5666Is it not worthy of the princess my daughter?
5666Is it thus you discharge the trust I have reposed in you?
5666Is it you whom I behold?
5666Is not the king of Persia, who loves and adores you, capable of comforting you, and making you amends for every loss?"
5666Is not your majesty the commander of the faithful, monarch of the world from east to west, and vicar on earth to the prophet sent of God?
5666Is there anything you wish for?
5666King Beder and the old man left off discoursing, to look at the old woman, whom the king asked, what cause she had to be so much afflicted?
5666King Beder satisfied him in a few words; and the old man farther asked him if he had met anybody on the road?
5666Look round you, prince; can there be a more delightful spot?
5666Madam,"added he, addressing himself to the Princess of Deryabar,"do you also forgive me for having concealed my birth from you?
5666May I flatter myself that it may be in my power to restore you to the sultan your father, who is inconsolable for the loss of you?
5666Must I spend my life in sloth, when all my brothers have the happiness to be fighting by his side?"
5666Must he go again to that subterraneous abode, the entrance into which is stopped up, and gather them off the trees?
5666Ought you to treat your mother after this manner?
5666Remember, too, that he would eat no salt with you; and what would you have more to persuade you of his wicked design?
5666Shall we be soon in the dominions of the prince my husband?"
5666She looked through a lattice and saw them, seemed frightened, and cried out,"What shall we do?
5666She was in as great amazement at what her son told her, as at the appearance of the genie; and said to him,"But, son, what have we to do with genii?
5666Speak, and tell me frankly, wherein I can serve you?"
5666Tell me, I beseech you, where was your wit or discretion, when you formed to yourself such a chimera as you have proposed to me?
5666The apothecary inquired who was ill at her master''s?
5666The feigned cauzee, turning about to the merchant, then asked him why he did not return the money which Ali Khaujeh demanded of him?
5666The first question he asked on his arrival was,"Where was the king his nephew?"
5666The first who entered the room got between him and his mother, and taking the switch out of his hand, said to him,"What are you doing, Abou Hassan?
5666The mother was alarmed when she saw the grand vizier would take her son with him, and asked, upon what account the caliph wanted him?
5666The nobles of Cairo were surprised, and whispered to one another,"Who is this stranger, to whom Mobarec pays so much respect?"
5666The officer going to the peasant, demanded of him how much he would have for the bird?
5666The pretended cauzee then directing his discourse to the feigned Ali Khaujeh, asked him what he had to lay to that merchant''s charge?
5666The sultan growing impatient, demanded of him again,"Where is your palace, and what is become of my daughter?"
5666The surgeon paid her the same respect, and then asked a calender, who happened to stand by him,"Whether that lady was one of the sultan''s wives?"
5666Then addressing himself to Zobeide,"Well, madam,"said he,"have you yet any thing to say against so certain a truth?
5666Then he said to them,"How will you carry away your goods?
5666There, possessed by his despair, he said to himself,"Where shall I seek my palace?
5666Therefore what conveniences have they more than we, that we should envy their happiness?
5666Was not his father a dog, and the son of a dog, like you?
5666We have often asked her,"Madam, do you want anything?
5666What can Hassan do with that?"
5666What can I do without you?
5666What could Cassim''s widow do better than accept of this proposal?
5666What could hinder me from being a little moved at the pronouncing of so strange a transformation?
5666What cruel hands have put you into this condition?
5666What evil genius possesses you, to make you talk at this rate?
5666What have vultures to do with turbans?
5666What have you done to claim such a favour, either for your prince or country?
5666What relation does he bear to you?
5666What say you, daughter, am I deceived in my conjecture?"
5666What say you, my lads?"
5666What would she say of you and me?
5666What would the world say to hear you rave in this manner?
5666Whatever be the value of a diamond statue, is it worth the satisfaction of having you mine?
5666When he came to the door, he said,"Go in; you ought to know whereabouts your palace stood: look round and tell me what is become of it?"
5666When shall I enlist so gallant a troop again?
5666When they both had their cups in their hands, she said to him,"I know not how you express your loves in these parts when drinking together?
5666When they were gone, Codadad, directing his discourse to the lady, said,"What place, madam, do you desire to go to?
5666Where am I?
5666Where has that poor wretch got all this wealth?
5666Where shall I find this sandman?
5666Whilst he was mounting,"I forgot,"said the queen to Abdallah,"to ask you your nephew''s name; pray how is he called?"
5666Whither were you bound when you were seized by the black?
5666Who are you?
5666Who is your sister?
5666Who was that who came and spoke with me a little before the caliph entered?"
5666Who was your father?
5666Whom do you think now I ought to believe, you or my treasurer, my women, and myself?"
5666Why did you leave me?
5666Why do not you tell me which is dead, the husband or the wife?"
5666Why does he leave me here so long in obscurity?
5666Why does he not call me to his assistance?
5666Why should I not have been attended by eunuchs, and their chief, and a crowd of beautiful ladies?
5666Why should the grand vizier, and all those emirs and governors of provinces, who prostrated themselves at my feet, forsake me?
5666Why, who are you, son,"continued she,"that you can have the assurance to think of your sultan''s daughter?
5666Will you still believe that Nouzhatoul- aouadat is alive, and that Abou Hassan is dead?
5666Will you vouchsafe to come and be merry with us?"
5666Would you have him send you away with the same confusion?
5666Zeyn was conducted thither, knocked at the gate, which a slave opened, and demanded,"What is it you want, and who are you?"
5666and do not you believe, that with such a sum you could become soon as rich as the principal of your occupation?"
5666and hast thou long been in possession of him?"
5666and to whom does this palace belong?
5666answered Abou Hassan, raising his voice; but looking at the lady, he said,"Is it me you call the commander of the faithful?
5666answered king Beder,"how can I be tired of so many favours and graces as your majesty perpetually heaps upon me?
5666answered the caliph,"do you not know me?
5666are you not ashamed so to treat yours, who loves you so tenderly?"
5666brother,"replied Queen Gulnare,"is not the princess yet married?
5666child,"said she,"what are you thinking of?
5666cried Zeyn, in astonishment,"where could my father find such rarities?"
5666cried he, calling the ladies of the palace by their names, as he remembered them;"where are you?
5666cried she,"what have I done that you should leave me so soon?
5666cried the mother,"was your lamp then the occasion of that cursed genie addressing himself rather to me than to you?"
5666cried the sultan,"is it possible that you are restored to me?
5666did I say, madam?
5666exclaimed Ali Baba,"what have you done to ruin me and my family?"
5666exclaimed he;"whence came you, and where do those happy parents live who brought into the world so surprising a masterpiece of nature?
5666have you lost all fear of God and your reason?
5666how could you make so ungrateful a return for the service he has done you?
5666my brothers,"said he,"what is become of you?
5666my son,"cried the African magician with a sigh,"how can I forbear?
5666once so beautiful, what relief can you expect from us?
5666prince,"cried he,"do you call so inestimable a present a small token of your gratitude, when you never have been indebted to me?
5666replied he,"you would have me do something against my conscience, or against my honour?"
5666replied the sultan;"who can have that audacity?"
5666said Ali Baba,"what is it you shew me?
5666said Codadad:"Whence come these miserable lamentations, which pierce my ears?"
5666said Mobarec:"shall we not there find beautiful maidens?"
5666said he who spoke first,"do not you know your mother who brought you up, and with whom you have always lived?"
5666said he, in a tone of indignation,"have not you been the cause of your wife''s death by your ill treatment of her?
5666said he,"do you make a jest of me and laugh in my face, or do you believe I laugh at you when I speak seriously?
5666said she,"has Ali Baba gold so plentiful as to measure it?
5666said the person whom he addressed,"have you never seen or heard of her?
5666sir,"replied Gulnare"could I do less?
5666that thy unworthy uncle and thou repay me for all the kindnesses I have done you?
5666thought he to himself, when he awoke,"how much was I mistaken?
5666what can we do for thee?
5666what has happened to you?"
5666what will become of poor Nouzhatoul- aouadat?"
5666which has condemned me to lead a life of calamities, if you will not permit me to have a consort, why did you permit me to find one?
5666who is it you call son?"
5666why?"
5666wicked Nouzhatoul- aouadat,"cried she,"what have I suffered for your sake?
8656And dost thou know Sherkan?
8656And how did the holy man reach you?
8656And how much wilt thou give me for her?
8656And what can this irk thee,rejoined she,"seeing thou knowest the cock''s craft, of which I told thee?"
8656And what didst thou see in thy dream, O King of the age?
8656And what is in this cauldron?
8656And what is it the cock does?
8656And what is the meaning of her signs?
8656And what,rejoined the Khalif,"should Omar know of their case?"
8656And who is she?
8656And who is the most foolish of mankind?
8656And who should have her but I?
8656Can I look to enter the sea, without wetting my clothes?
8656Canst thou not go in to them and guard thyself from loving them?
8656Did she then know of us?
8656Dost thou ask what is my name now,said she,"or what it was formerly?"
8656Dost thou wish to destroy thyself?
8656For what dost thou sigh?
8656Hast thou not had enough of wrestling, O conquered one?
8656Hast thou not seen this holy man excite the faithful to battle, recking nought of spears and swords? 8656 Hast thou requited him his kindness to thee?"
8656Hast thou then two names?
8656How can we beat thee,replied they,"who art our sovereign lady and mother of the supreme King?"
8656How could this traitress impose upon us twice?
8656How so?
8656How so?
8656How so?
8656How so?
8656In what house is he imprisoned?
8656In what respect?
8656O Kings of the age,said he,"if I tell you a rare story, will you pardon me?"
8656O holy man,said Behram,"when didst thou leave them?"
8656O holy man,said they,"didst thou not hear us weeping round thee?"
8656O my cousin,said I,"what shall I do?
8656O my friend, who hath made thee Sultan?
8656O my lady,answered he,"how should one not be beaten, who plays with the like of thee?"
8656O my lord,replied the stoker,"how can I let thee go alone, and thou a young lad and a stranger?
8656O my lord,replied the stoker,"said I not I feared thou wouldst not choose to grant me what I should ask or be not able thereto?"
8656O noble princess and unpeered pearl,replied the knight their chief,"dost thou know who is this man with thee?"
8656O thou that answerest my complaint and wouldst know my history,rejoined the other,"who art thou amongst the cavaliers?
8656Six days''journey,answered the stoker"Wilt thou send me thither?"
8656They are all well,answered the prince;"but who brought thee tidings of us?"
8656Verily, he is a friend of God,said Sherkan;"but where is he now?"
8656What ails these children that they weep?
8656What hath befallen thee?
8656What is it, O Commander of the Faithful?
8656What is it?
8656What is it?
8656What is that, O King of the age?
8656What is that?
8656What is the cause of thy vow?
8656What is the history of this letter?
8656What is the use of my eyes,rejoined Thabit,"if they do not weep?"
8656What is thy name?
8656What is thy sister''s name?
8656What regret is that, O my father?
8656What then dost thou purpose to do?
8656What was it that ye won?
8656Whence comest thou and whither art thou bound?
8656Who art thou?
8656Who art thou?
8656Who is he?
8656Who is thy father, O thou that hast no( known) mother?
8656Who sleeps in this unmarked grave?
8656Who then was it?
8656Why is thy writing thus,my lover said to me,"Attenuate and small, uneath to read and ill?"
8656Why then,said she,"should he undertake the governance of the people''s affairs and yet be unmindful of them?"
8656Wilt thou bear my burden for me on the Day of Resurrection?
8656[ FN#27] When the merchant heard this, his eyes filled with tears, and he said to her,Hast thou not a sick brother?"
8656''After awhile,''say they; and I,''Who will ensure me life, O fools, until the hands of grief their grip of me release?''
8656''And how dost thou,''said the Khalif,''when thou goest in to thy chiefs?''
8656''And how, when thou goest in to thine equals?''
8656''And how,''asked the Khalif,''dost thou when thou hast a mind to lie with her?''
8656''And what was this dream?''
8656''And whither wilt thou go?''
8656''How dost thou with thy wife?''
8656''How so?''
8656''How wilt thou go to her?''
8656''How,''asked the Khalif,''dost thou carry thyself, when thou goest in to the common folk of thy tribe?''
8656''O my lord,''rejoined the other,''what is that?''
8656''Shall I haggle with the like of thee about this paltry price?''
8656''What is in the letter,''asked the old woman,''to trouble thy heart and move thine anger thus?
8656''What is this dog,''replied the old woman,''that he should conceive hopes of thee?''
8656''What is thy counsel to thyself?''
8656''What is thy wage?''
8656''What stuffs has thou brought with thee?
8656''What then wouldst thou have, O light of my eyes and fruit of my entrails?''
8656''When is our meeting to be?''
8656''Whither shall I flee,''asked the King,''and where is that I must seek?''
8656''Who is he?''
8656''Why dost thou weep?''
8656''Yes,''replied the King, and the other said,''Dost thou judge thy present state to be temporary or enduring?''
8656''[ FN#10] So how canst thou speak thus to me?
8656A little after thy departure, fortune came to me: so now wilt thou go with me and work thine intent in my company and journey with me in this desert?"
8656Ah, who shall give me back the abode of my belov''d, wherein The Age''s Joy[FN#63] and Place''s Light[FN#64] erst dwelt in peace and bliss?
8656And I said to her,"What is the meaning of the two words she taught me?"
8656And I,"Can one consoled for country be?"
8656And I,''O thou that blamest me, whence should I patience get?''
8656And Othman said,''Where wilt thou find the like of Omar?''
8656And doth not this suffice you, but ye must adventure yourselves and give us such words as these?
8656And she began to pour water on him, weeping, till he revived, and seeing her in tears, said to her,''O Fatimeh, why dost thou weep?''
8656And she buffeted her face, saying,''What have we done that we should come in converse with shopkeepers?
8656And she was wroth with him and said,"What words are these?
8656And the sixth,''When shall the day betide of meeting for us twain?
8656Are they living, I wonder, or dead?
8656Art thou a man or a genie?
8656Art thou not ashamed to say to me,''O damsel''?
8656Art thou not glad and easeful and blest with happy life, Whilst I, for thee, an exile from folk and country stray?
8656Art thou, then, minded to him as he to thee?''
8656As for anecdotes of devotees( continued the maiden), quoth Hisham ben Besher,"I said to Omar ben Ubeid,''What is true devoutness?''
8656At this Kanmakan smiled and answered,"Why should I turn my back for thee?
8656Azizeh, seeing me, raised her head and sat up and said,"O Aziz, didst thou repeat the verse to her?"
8656Being asked the reason of this, he replied,"Do ye not know before whom I stand and to whom I address myself?"
8656But I fear lest the King take thee to wife, for he loves thee and I saw in him signs of desire for thee: so what wilt thou say, if he wish this?"
8656But canst thou endure the parting from thy father and thy folk?"
8656But he refused and the young man said to him,"What ails thee, O man, that thou wilt not eat?"
8656But what manner of man art thou?"
8656But what would Butheineh have done with him that he says,''Thou wishest to kill me and nought else?''"
8656But where am I now?"
8656Can it be that their life''s race is run?
8656Come ye as guests or are you minded to cut and thrust?
8656Did I not tell thee that lying is shameful?"
8656Did ever any of a moon get union and liesse?
8656Did it not suffice thee to take my kingdom and that of my father, but thou must go about to kill me?"
8656Did not what I endured suffice, but thou must depart from the place of my abiding?
8656Did they fail of respect to the holy man or disobey him, or what?"
8656Didst thou not give me a jewel and say to me,''This jewel was thy father''s''?
8656Do ye think to escape out of our hands and return to your country?"
8656Do you remember aught that the poets have said in praise of the bath?''
8656Dost thou bandy words with me?
8656Dost thou not know that pride angers the Lord and hardens the heart and brings men to the fire?''
8656Doth it contain a complaint of oppression or demand for the price of the stuff?''
8656Doth she o''the anklets hold me in mind, whilst far away, Though between me and Saada were solemn vows and dear?
8656For already I feel the pangs of labour, and if I abide other four or five days, I shall be brought to bed here, and how then can I go to my country?
8656Full fain would I forget her; but how can I forget, When for desire my patience is wasted all away?
8656Hast thou any more?"
8656He blessed her and they sat talking awhile, till she said to him,"Knowest thou aught touching lovers and slaves of passion?"
8656He gave not over laughing for some time and saying to himself,''What ails them to bespeak me as if I were a Vizier and style me"Master"and"our lord"?
8656Her grief became known and all the people of the town and country wept with her and said,"Where is thine eye, O Zoulmekan?"
8656How can I win to join them, since that the ways with wars Are blocked and the gate of succour is barred with many a chain?''
8656How can he dare to use such language to me and not dread the Sultan''s wrath?
8656How can thy cousin be a king''s daughter?
8656How comes it that thou art thus afflicted with love of this young man?
8656How comes it your memory maketh the fire in my heart to rage?
8656How couldst thou leave the daughter of thine uncle in ill case and not ask what ailed her?"
8656How darest thou demand this of me, O son of shame and nursling of lewdness?
8656How didst thou pass the night, O hero, after we went away and left thee?
8656How dost thou?"
8656How is it with the Muslims?"
8656How long shall I be tender to her, despite my pain?
8656How long shall she ride roughshod o''er my weakness night and day?
8656How many have fallen to thy spear?"
8656How shall I be consoled for thee, and thou a sapling slight?
8656How should I do what thou sayest, when I know that, if I came to thy King Omar ben Ennuman, I should never win free of him?
8656How then dar''st thou hope my favours and aspire to twinned delight And my spear- straight shape and slender in thine arms to girdle sigh?
8656How well says the poet: Wherewith shall I be comforted, that am of all bereft, To whom nor folk nor home nor friend nor dwelling- place is left?"
8656How, then, must it be with one from whom thou hast been absent a whole year, and I knew thee before she did?
8656I did so; and behold a black eunuch put out his head through the wicket and said,"O elder, is there any one with thee?"
8656I refused it, but she said to me,"Didst thou not promise to do my bidding?
8656I thought them to be dogs, for I had never before seen wolves; so I said to the shepherd,"What dost thou with these dogs?"
8656I was abashed at her words and said,"Is that the cock''s business?"
8656I wonder, is the damsel still in her old case?
8656I wondered at this and said to her,"What then didst thou purpose to do with me, and we lovers?"
8656If I say to Butheineh,"What is this love, that eateth my life away?"
8656If he say to you,''What profit had ye of your commerce in the land of the Greeks?''
8656Is the indweller of the tomb the hostage of a pit, In which, for that his face is there, splendour and light abide?
8656Is there no equity in thee?
8656Is this forbidden to us?"
8656Is''t thus with each lover remembers a dear one far away?
8656It is no fault of mine: didst thou not bid me ask some considerable thing?
8656It was asked of Abou Hazim,[FN#86]"Who is the most fortunate of men?"
8656It was asked of a certain wise man,"Who is the most ill- conditioned of men?"
8656Knowst thou not that a neighbour has a claim upon his neighbour, even as the right of kindred?"
8656Liar that thou art, why didst thou tell me that thou knewest not who it was, when it was thy companion?
8656Nor was it long before he left him also drowned in his blood and cried out,''Who will come out to me?''
8656O my son, from what land shall I call thee?
8656O soft- shining lightnings, tell me true, Are the days of happiness past fore''er?
8656One day, Kuzia Fekan took her aside and said to her,"Alas, my aunt, how is it with thy son?"
8656One night, as he lay awake, he communed with himself and said,"Why should I keep silence, till I consume away, and see not my love?
8656Presently the Vizier said to the gardener,''Tell me about this garden: is it thine or dost thou rent it?''
8656Presently the stoker came in and seeing him sitting up and showing signs of amendment, said to him,"How dost thou now, O my son?"
8656Presently, Sherkan turned to his brother Zoulmekan and said to him"My brother, how shall we get free?"
8656Presently, he turned and said to me,''Dost thou want aught?''
8656Presently, her husband entered and seeing her feeding him, sat down at his head and said to him,"How is it with thee now, O my son?"
8656Quoth Dendan,"See ye not yon other man that is before us?"
8656Quoth I,"Can wolves be with sheep and not hurt them?"
8656Quoth I,''What is secret hypocrisy?''
8656Quoth Ibrahim to Shekic,''What is your fashion in your country?''
8656Quoth Mohammed ben Amran,"A man once asked of Hatim el Asemm[FN#89],''What maketh thee to trust in God?''
8656Quoth Sherkan,"How wilt thou win to them, O holy man, seeing that the valley is blocked up by the infidels on all sides?"
8656Quoth Sherkan,"I am well and in good case; but where is the holy man?"
8656Quoth Taj el Mulouk to Aziz,''Is this the resort of the merchants?''
8656Quoth Zoulmekan,"How far is it hence to Damascus?"
8656Quoth Zoulmekan,"Whence comes this bitch that seeks for me?
8656Quoth his father,"What made thee change colour, when I told thee of this, seeing that the kingdom is assured to thee after me?
8656Quoth one of the merchants,"How old is she?"
8656Quoth she,"And how camest thou in to me without my leave?"
8656Quoth she,"Perfidy is a foul thing with strangers, and how much more with kinsfolk?
8656Quoth she,"What is this, O my son?"
8656Quoth she,''I commend thee to God;''and he said,''When shall I see thee again, O pious lady?
8656Quoth the Vizier,"And who should have been the cause of this our affliction, save that devotee of Satan?
8656Quoth the other,"I have been distracted from thee by Ibn Shihab; dost thou know him?"
8656Quoth the princess,''Didst thou ask him if he had any need, that we might satisfy it?''
8656Quoth the stoker,"Hast thou not seen me sitting here and dost thou not know my station?
8656Quoth the stoker,"Why wilt thou obey thine own inclinations and the promptings of the devil?
8656Quoth they,"Who art thou?"
8656Shall I tell thee any more?''
8656Shall the nights e''er unite us, the nights of dear delight, And shall we tell our suff''rings, each in the other''s ear?
8656Shall we then die of hunger?
8656Shall we walk abroad to view Damascus and cheer our spirits?"
8656She laughed and said,"If I sang to thee in Arabic, what wouldst thou do?"
8656She took the pen and wrote the following verses:"What ails me that sleep hath forsaken my eyes and gone astray?
8656So come, let us win?
8656So he laid all the blame on himself, saying,"How came I to venture myself in the country of the Greeks?"
8656So he said to him,"O youth, of what tribe art thou and to whom art thou kin among the Arabs?
8656So he said to the Syrians,"Did ye rescue the holy man or is he still in the hermitage?"
8656So he turned to the Vizier and said to him,"What art thou that thou shouldst beat me?
8656So she bade fetch a hundred men, natives of Nejran in Syria, and said to them,"Ye have heard what has befallen the Christians with the Muslims?"
8656So she came, and he showed her the letter and said to her,"O my sister, what answer wouldst thou have me make to this letter?"
8656So she chose goods worth a thousand dinars and said,''How much is this?''
8656So she said to him,''O my son, what is there in this scroll, that makes thee weep?''
8656So she took an instrument and changing the measure, sang the following verses: Parting must ever bitter be; How shall one bear it patiently?
8656So she turned to him, laughing, and said,"What wouldst thou?
8656So tell me, what and whence art thou and whither art thou bound?"
8656So the Khalif said to his attendants,''Who is at the door?''
8656So what hast thou to boast of?
8656So what is thy counsel, O Vizier?
8656Tell me, dost thou know the Koran?"
8656The King thanked her and said,''But that I fear to cross thee, I would not accept the treasure or aught else: but when wilt thou set out with them?''
8656The King wondered at this and said,''O my lady, what is their price?''
8656The bystanders said to her,"Why hast thou made haste to slay him?"
8656The fifth,''When shall mine eyes behold thee?
8656The nurse gave her his second letter, whereupon her anger redoubled and she said,''Did I not say he would conceive hopes of us?''
8656The prince wondered greatly at his behaviour, and said to him,''What is that piece of linen?''
8656The princess took the letter and reading it, exclaimed,''Who and what is this merchant that he should dare to write to me thus?''
8656Then Kanmakan rose and said to Sasan,"Is there aught of bitterness left in thy heart against me?"
8656Then he carried him to his palace and said to him,''Where didst thou leave the Vizier?''
8656Then he fell to comforting her and kissing her head, and she said to him,"What wilt thou call the child?"
8656Then he said to her,"Hast thou then been shown to him?"
8656Then he sent for Aziz and said to him,''O my son, dost thou know the way to the Camphor Islands?''
8656Then he smote him on the breast, that the spear- point issued from his back, and cried out, saying,''Will another come out?''
8656Then he stayed his steed in the midst of the field and cried out,"Where is Afridoun, that I may make him drink the cup of humiliation?"
8656Then he took courage and giving loose to his tongue, repeated the following verses: When shall the mourning heart be healed of anger and disdain?
8656Then he turned to Bakoun and said to her,"My life on thee, knowest thou any story better than those thou hast told me?"
8656Then he turned to me and said,''Harkye, Hemmad, dost thou know me?''
8656Then he turned to the lady to reproach her, but saw that she had changed colour; and she sprang to her feet and said to the new- comers,"Who are ye?"
8656Then he went in to his mother Dhat ed Dewahi and said to her,"Shall the Muslims deal thus with my daughter?
8656Then he went to his house and said to his mother,"O my mother, how is it with my cousin?"
8656Then he went up to her, confounded at her beauty and grace, and seating himself by her side, said to her,"O my mistress, what is thy name?"
8656Then said I to him,''O brother of the Arabs, tell me who thou art and what is this damsel to thee?''
8656Then said Kanmakan,"Whither dost thou now intend?"
8656Then said Zoulmekan,"Know ye who did this, and how is it I see not the recluse, him who hath put away the things of the world?"
8656Then said he to his wife,"Wilt thou go with me to Damascus or wilt thou abide here, whilst I bring this my lord thither and return to thee?
8656Then said he,''This, O prince, is my story: hast thou ever heard a stranger one?''
8656Then said she,"O Aziz, which wouldst thou rather, life or death?"
8656Then said she,''O my son, what is thy name?''
8656Then said the Christians to each other,"When shall these battles have an end?
8656Then said the Muslims to him,"What is thy news?"
8656Then said the Vizier,''Which of you is the overseer of the market?''
8656Then said the folk,''Art thou not ashamed, O hashish- eater, and thou lying asleep and naked, with thy yard on end?''
8656Then she said to Merjaneh,"I wish to set out to- night, but how shall I do?
8656Then she said to Sherkan,"O king''s son, dost thou know aught of Jemil''s[FN#14] verses to Butheineh?"
8656Then she said to him,"O Muslim, dost thou understand what I say?"
8656Then she said to him,"O Muslim, it is lawful among you to kill Christians; what sayst thou to my killing thee?"
8656Then she said to me,"O my cousin, meseems thou didst sleep again last night?"
8656Then she said, with clear and dulcet speech, never heard I sweeter,"O my mother, is this he who cometh to read the letter?"
8656Then she turned to them and greeted them, saying,"Wherefore come ye?"
8656Then she went in to King Afridoun and said to him,"What is this I hear from the Muslims?
8656Then she wept, and my heart was sore for her by reason of her much weeping, and I said to her,"What is the charge thou gavest me?"
8656Then sobs burst up out of her breast, and she repeated these verses also: What ails me?
8656Then the eunuch cried out at him, saying,"Who was it recited the verses?
8656Then the grandees and courtiers came to me and said,"What is this thou hast done with the Commander of the Faithful?
8656Then the hundred cavaliers made towards Kanmakan from all sides, and one of them accosted him, saying,"Whither goest thou with this good?"
8656Then the princess cried out to her damsels, saying,"Who is left in the monastery?"
8656Then they turned to the second prisoner, who was a black slave, and said to him,"What is thy name?
8656Then,"Fearest thou not disgrace?"
8656There withal there entered into me pride, whence I know not, and I said to myself,''Who can walk upon the water, like unto me?''
8656Thereupon one of Sherkan''s men came out from the ranks and spurring between the two parties, cried out,"Who is for jousting?
8656These words should come from none but a doughty champion: what wantest thou of equity?
8656This is all through thee: else how should this devil know me?''
8656This was grievous to him and he said,"How did she leave the palace, unknown of any?
8656Thou hast not strength enough to defend thee against women; so how couldst thou make head against men and cavaliers?"
8656Thou smitest me with cruel words, that yet are sweet to me: Wilt thou one day, though but in dreams, to look upon me deign?
8656Thou talkest of my serving thee; who then art thou and what moved thee to speak thus?"
8656Thou that forbidst my passion the sweets of happy love, Art thou then safe from fortune, that shifts and changes aye?
8656Up, drinker of the vine- juice, and forth, for seest thou not Earth gilt with blooms and waters all welling forth like wine?
8656What country hath given thee refuge?"
8656What deemest thou of this?"
8656What hath befallen thee to make thee tarry till now?"
8656What is thy history and wherefore goest thou by night, after the fashion of champions?
8656What kin is she, who spoke thus, to thee?"
8656What man is free from wants?''
8656What say ye?
8656What sayst thou, O my son?
8656What shall I do and what answer shall I make my father and my mother, when they say to me,''Whence hadst thou thy daughter''?"
8656When Behram saw her, he dismounted and kissing the earth before her, said,"What is behind thee, O friend of God?
8656When I heard this, I marvelled exceedingly and said,"Who made thee to know of her, O my lady?"
8656When Sherkan heard this all was certified that she was indeed his sister, he said to himself,"How can I have my sister to wife?
8656When Sherkan saw this, the case was grievous to him, and he said to his comrades,"What shall we do?"
8656When Zoulmekan heard this, he wept and said,"Who is it would forbid me to recite?
8656When Zoulmekan saw them, he was ware that they were a mighty host and said,"Who can have given these troops advice of us?"
8656When he heard her words, he cried out,"O insolent wretch, dost thou dare to bandy words with me?"
8656When he heard her words, he hardened his heart and said to her,"O pestilent baggage, wilt thou bandy words with me?"
8656When he heard this, he said,"How is it with Kuzia Fekan?"
8656When she heard my voice, she opened her eyes and said,"O Aziz, didst thou repeat the verses to her?"
8656When she heard this, she looked at the knight and said to him,"What is thy name?"
8656When she heard this, she shrieked aloud and wept, saying,"Did I not tell thee that thou hadst slain her?
8656When she saw me, she said to me,"O my son, canst thou read?"
8656When the gardener saw this, he came up to the prince and said to him,''O my lord, what is to be done?
8656When the latter saw her, she said to her,''O my nurse, what is it he asks, that we may fulfil his wish to him?''
8656When the sun rose, he said to him,"Meseems thou yearnest for thy native land?"
8656When, rigour ceasing, shall the lips of union smile again?
8656Whence art thou?
8656Whence comest thou and whither art thou bound?
8656Who is for fighting?
8656Who is there can have patience after his friend and who Bows not the head to parting, that comes with rapid stride?
8656Who is thy father and what hath emboldened thee to debauch my daughter?''
8656Who will deliver her into our hands, that we may avenge ourselves upon her and wipe out our dishonour?"
8656Why didst thou not come with us and bathe in our company?''
8656Why didst thou not pass the night with thy beloved and why hast thou not fulfilled thy desire of her?"
8656Why didst thou not tell me the truth?"
8656Why dost thou say that she is illustrious,[FN#25] for all she is of the scum of slave- girls and of the refuse of the people?
8656Will they not come out against me, ten by ten?"
8656Wilt thou give me leave to answer?''
8656Wilt thou have me cast into the fire by the wrath of the All- powerful King?
8656[ FN#111]"What news bringest thou, O saint?"
8656[ FN#11] Quoth he( Solomon),"O chiefs, which of you will bring me her throne?"
8656[ FN#47]''It was said to Sufyan,[FN#48]''Can a man be devout and yet possess wealth?''
8656and called for aid upon the priests of the monasteries, saying,"Where are the crosses?"
8656and the hand of thy bounty fled?
8656cried the Bedouin;"what should the baggage want with clothes?
8656replied he; but he said to himself,"How shall I take this sick man to Damascus, and he nigh upon death?"
8656said Omar, for he misliked to say,"folk of the fire;"[FN#42]"what ails you?"
8656they say; and I,"What have I to do with waging war except among the fair?"
8656what shall she do?
8656what shall she do?"
8933''And have n''t I eaten you up after all, then?''
8933''And how will you set about it?''
8933''And it is you who took my bed- quilt, with the gold and silver patches?''
8933''And now you have taken off my gold harp?''
8933''And now, have you taken my bed- quilt, with silver patches and gold patches, and gold patches and silver patches?''
8933''And now, what funny thing was it you saw up yonder on the hill- side?''
8933''And now?''
8933''And pray what does she spae?''
8933''And pray what does the spae- maiden say now?''
8933''And what should take you down to the strand?''
8933''And, pray, what''s the meaning of all this tom- foolery?''
8933''And, pray, what''s the meaning of all this?''
8933''Are you afraid?''
8933''Are you ready?''
8933''BLAST YOU BOTH, WHAT DO YOU WANT?''
8933''But do you know how to settle him?
8933''But does n''t it hurt one cruelly?''
8933''But how shall we let it be known that it is you that have saved me?''
8933''But how'', asked the wife,''can the Stargazers answer that?''
8933''But what errand can you have in coming hither?''
8933''But what have you been turning your hand to, that you have made yourself so great a man in such haste?''
8933''But what have you got there?''
8933''But what''s come over your mother?''
8933''But where shall I ever get thistle- down enough for so many neckerchiefs, and shirts, and coats?''
8933''But where shall I find him?''
8933''But where''s Katie Woodencloak?''
8933''But you shall eat'', said the youth;''I''m only half done; why do n''t you do as I did, and cut a hole in your paunch?
8933''But, my dear friend'', he said,''who in the world is it that sends me such a fine gift?''
8933''Ca n''t they?''
8933''Ca n''t you spare me that lad yonder?''
8933''Can I get leave to have a bed and shelter here to- night?''
8933''Can I get my magpie cooked here?''
8933''Can I have lodging here to- night?''
8933''Can I lodge here to- night?''
8933''Can I lodge here to- night?''
8933''Can this be me now?''
8933''Can you brandish the sword?''
8933''Can you fight?''
8933''Can you fight?''
8933''Can you fight?''
8933''Can you wash this shirt clean, lassie, you?''
8933''Could n''t it be me, now?''
8933''Did you see if he had any money?''
8933''Do n''t you know me again?''
8933''Do n''t you know?''
8933''Do you feel any change?''
8933''Do you hear anything?''
8933''Do you know me again?''
8933''Do you know what your daughter says?''
8933''Do you see anything now?''
8933''Do you see anything now?''
8933''Do you see anything now?''
8933''Do you see anything?''
8933''Do you see anything?''
8933''Do you see anything?''
8933''Do you see anything?''
8933''Do you think I look fit to stand in the bride''s place?
8933''Do you think I''ll do any such thing?''
8933''Do you think now you''re fit to show yourself before folk'', said the skipper,''why, you''ve no clothes but those rags you stand in?''
8933''Do you think now'', said he,''you can steal the horse from under me while I am out riding on his back?''
8933''Do you think now'', said the Prince,''I''d have anything to do with the water you bring?''
8933''Go out'', said the Devil to the watch,''and ask him who he is?''
8933''Good day'', said the Smith;''whither are you off to?''
8933''Good day, Cocky- Locky'', said the Duck,''whither away so early?''
8933''Good day, Ducky- Lucky'', said the Goose,''whither away so early?''
8933''Good morning, Mr Lion, what are you doing there?''
8933''Halloa, you sir'', he said, as they were going off,''did you ask the Dragon what I begged you to ask?''
8933''Have you been to Hell after my fire- tax?''
8933''Have you brought the wether?''
8933''Have you cleaned the stable?''
8933''Have you got an axe?''
8933''Have you got it still?''
8933''Have you got your big cat with you still?''
8933''Have you lost the little brains you had, Goody?''
8933''Have you said this?
8933''Have you seen any bears about here, Eric?''
8933''Have you seen any lassie pass here, you cow?''
8933''Have you seen any lassie pass here, you sheep?''
8933''Have you seen any lassie pass this way, you hedge?''
8933''Have you watched true and well the whole day, now?''
8933''Have you watched well and true the whole day?''
8933''How can you be so silly as to believe any such thing?''
8933''How did you come to know about him?''
8933''How do you know that, Henny- Penny?''
8933''How much will you have then?''
8933''How shall I know your children?''
8933''How you do know that, Henny- Penny?''
8933''How, now'', said the king;''have you got the golden apple?
8933''I have a hundred dollars at the bottom of my chest at home; will you lay as many against them?''
8933''I wonder now what it is that is hewing away up yonder?''
8933''I''ll go off to Tom Totherhouse with a snack-- shan''t I, mother?''
8933''I''m glad you spoke of the Ogre'', said Shortshanks;''''twould be fine fun to see him; whereabouts is he?''
8933''I''m sure I ca n''t tell how to put this lad out of the way-- he is so awfully strong; ca n''t you think of some way?
8933''If it''s not for sale for gold or money, what is it that you will sell it for?
8933''If you might have three wishes from me'', said our Lord,''what would you wish for?''
8933''If you only knew how to call the flock; just let me hear?''
8933''In heaven''s name, who''s there, and what ails you?''
8933''Is he fat?''
8933''Is it an ugly goat?
8933''Is it an ugly hood?
8933''Is it an ugly spoon?
8933''Is it me, or is it not me?
8933''Is it true, now'', said the lad,''what they say, that the Deil can make himself as small as he chooses, and thrust himself in through a pinhole?''
8933''Is n''t your Buttercup at home to- day?''
8933''Is that what you''re going to kill me with?''
8933''Maybe it''s you who ought to have had the Prince?''
8933''Might I have leave to shoe it?''
8933''Might she see it?''
8933''Nay, nay'', called out the Princess,''dare Christian folk come hither?
8933''Nay, nay, mother'', cried out the man;''shall we have custards to- day?''
8933''Nay, nay, mother'', said the man,''it ca n''t be you any longer; are we to have a snack between meals too?''
8933''Now then'', said the Foal,''do you see anything now?''
8933''Now'', she cried,''what shall I do with such a wretch as you?
8933''Oh, dear friend'', said Shortshanks,''do let me go?
8933''Oh, do you mean him?''
8933''Oh, you think so, do you?''
8933''Oh?''
8933''Pack yourself off, you ugly Troll'', he cried;''do you think I''d have a towel which you have touched with your smutty fingers?''
8933''Sha n''t I have anything at all, then, out of father''s and mother''s goods?''
8933''Shall we lay a bet upon it?''
8933''Shall you be back soon?''
8933''Shall you come back again?''
8933''Sitting all alone there, you little Annie?''
8933''So you lie here, and trickle and run down all alone?''
8933''So you stand here all alone and hew, do you?''
8933''So, so; it''s you, is it?''
8933''Such fir- stumps we always bind fast on our sledges in our part of the world'', bawled out the voice;''shall I come and help you?''
8933''THOU MOON, THOU MOON'', she screamed,''canst thou tell me the way to SORIA MORIA CASTLE?''
8933''The deuce take your dreams'', roared the Dragon;''what did you dream this time?''
8933''The same to you; whither are you going so late?''
8933''The same to you; whither are you going so late?''
8933''To the kingdom of Heaven'', said the Tailor,''if I can only get into it''--''but whither are you going yourself?''
8933''Very good'', said Shortshanks;''but do you know I''ve come to fetch you?''
8933''Very well, I daresay I can do it'', said the Master Thief;''but shall I really have your daughter if I can?''
8933''Very well, and how will you set about it?''
8933''WHO IS THIS THAT TOUCHES MY WOOD?''
8933''WHO''S THAT tramping over my bridge?''
8933''WHO''S THAT tripping over my bridge?''
8933''WHO''S THAT tripping over my bridge?''
8933''We''d better get on then'', said the Eagle; and after a while it said again:''Do you see anything?''
8933''Well now'', said Peter and Paul,''have you found out where the water comes from?
8933''Well'', asked the Goody,''how do things go with him, poor dear soul?''
8933''Well'', said the owner of the house,''how did things go with you in town?''
8933''Well, I think I must be mad'', he said;''what am I to do with this coach and horses?''
8933''Well, but have you much money?''
8933''Well, has it lain still?''
8933''Well, have you a mind to steal?''
8933''Well, what do you want for her?''
8933''Well, what was it, so rare and strange'', said Peter and Paul,''that you saw up there at the top of the rock?''
8933''Well, why not?
8933''Well, why not?''
8933''Well, why not?''
8933''What ails you, child?''
8933''What are you weeping for?''
8933''What did you dream about?
8933''What did you give for that spae- maiden?''
8933''What do you say, sir?''
8933''What do you say?''
8933''What do you want for it?''
8933''What do you want for your gold apple, you lassie?''
8933''What have you done?''
8933''What in the world is it that mother is running after now?''
8933''What is it my brother says?''
8933''What is it my brother says?''
8933''What is your will?''
8933''What sort of an earthworm is this?''
8933''What sort of folk, then, are they who live here?''
8933''What the devil do you want?''
8933''What thing is that?''
8933''What will you give me to get your eye back?''
8933''What will you give me'', asked Shortshanks,''if you get your eye back?''
8933''What wonder is it, pray, that a woodcutter should stand and hack up on a hill- side?''
8933''What''s all this about?''
8933''What''s all this?''
8933''What''s all this?''
8933''What''s that then, that stands alongside your sledge?''
8933''What''s that you''ve got in your flask, old girl?''
8933''What''s the good of your going?''
8933''What''s the good?''
8933''What''s the matter now?''
8933''What''s the matter now?''
8933''What''s the matter now?''
8933''What''s the matter?''
8933''What''s the name of this land?''
8933''Whence did you get those from?''
8933''Whence do you come then?''
8933''Where have you put it?''
8933''Wherever in the world have you been?''
8933''Whither away yourself, Goosey- Poosey?''
8933''Whither away, Foxy- Cocksy?''
8933''Whither away, Goody?''
8933''Whither away, Goody?''
8933''Whither away, Goody?''
8933''Whither away, now?''
8933''Whither away?''
8933''Whither away?''
8933''Whither away?''
8933''Who are you?''
8933''Who are you?''
8933''Who could tell you were still alive, when you went gadding and wandering about so long?''
8933''Who is it you''re talking with?''
8933''Who is most worthy to have one of us'', she said,''he that has set us free, or he that here sits by me as bridegroom?''
8933''Who is that calling me?''
8933''Who knows?''
8933''Who sent for you, I should like to know?
8933''Who told you that, Cocky- Locky?''
8933''Who told you that, Cocky- Locky?''
8933''Who told you that, Cocky- Locky?''
8933''Who told you that, Ducky- Lucky?''
8933''Who told you that, Ducky- Lucky?''
8933''Who told you that, Goosey- Poosey?''
8933''Who told you that, Henny- Penny?''
8933''Who?--I?''
8933''Why do n''t you talk?''
8933''Why do you ride on that ugly goat?''
8933''Why do you ride with that ugly spoon?
8933''Why do you stand here fighting for ever and a day?
8933''Why do you stand here fighting for ever and a day?
8933''Why do you wear that ugly grey hood on your head?''
8933''Why not have me for a herdsman?''
8933''Why not have me for a herdsman?''
8933''Why not have me for your herdsman?''
8933''Why then print them at all?''
8933''Why what, by the Deil''s skin and bones, is it that you are standing there gaping at out of the window?''
8933''Why, what did you get for your tattered one, now?''
8933''Why, what should I talk about?''
8933''Why, what''s the matter?''
8933''Why, where in all the world did you come from?''
8933''Why, you know well enough'', said the Troll;''you used it last; where should it be but over the door yonder?
8933''Why, you seem full of dreams to- night'', said the Dragon what was your dream now?''
8933''Will he?''
8933''Will you come and serve me?''
8933''Will you give me your youngest daughter?
8933''Will you have fresh meat, or salt, or sausages, or oat- cake?
8933''Will you serve me?''
8933''_ That_ Auntie to my bride?''
8933A little while after, he was accosted by the second thief, who said,"Brahmin, why do you carry a dog on your back?"
8933After a while it asked again:''Do you see anything now?''
8933After a while it said:''Do you see anything now?''
8933After that he went in and asked if he could have a lodging?
8933All believed it, as her mouth was covered with blood; and, besides, what would be expected of a girl brought out of the wood?
8933And now, can you tell me which of them ought to have the cow?
8933And pray, what did you dream now?''
8933And straightway out came a man, who said:''What''s your will?''
8933And what do you think?
8933And when they had travelled a long long way, the Foal asked:''Do you see anything?''
8933Are you at it again?''
8933At last he began to toss about a little, and cried out:''Do you hear what I say; will it be soon done?''
8933At last the Foal asked again:''If Boots did n''t see anything?''
8933At last the Fox said:''Sha n''t we, each of us, tell a little story while we sit here?''
8933But as soon as ever she got in she began to scream,''Will you have goose or gander?
8933But he did n''t care a bit for that; up he clomb, and when he got near the top, what do you think he saw?
8933But next morning, when they were to get up, the Prince asked the stone again:''Who is this that steps out of my bed?''
8933But she was very woeful, and said to him:''Why did you not mind what I told you; and why did you not listen to what your father said?
8933But what do''Lady Landers''and''Lady Ellison''mean, as applied to the''Lady- Bird''in Scotland?
8933But what do''Lady Landers''and''Lady Ellison''mean, as applied to the''Lady- Bird''in Scotland?
8933But when the King asked the lad:''Can you tell me now, what my seven foals eat and drink?''
8933But when they had gone a bit of the way, the White Bear asked if all had n''t happened as he had said?
8933But when they had gone a good bit, she grew weary, and asked:''How far is it off to Snoring?''
8933But you must know he had a way of saying_ Quan?
8933Can any beggar''s trull look worse than I?''
8933Canst thou tell me the way to SORIA MORIA CASTLE?
8933Close by the town she met a butcher, who asked:''Will you sell that cow, Goody?''
8933Comes this spark from earth, Piercing and all pervading, or from Heaven?
8933Do n''t you know what grand folk we have in the house to- day?''
8933Do you hear?''
8933Do you think you could do that?''
8933Have I won the hundred dollars?''
8933Have you never heard how water rises from a spring in the earth?''
8933He found there a Princess who lived with the Dragon all alone; and she said:''But, dear friend, how can Christian folk dare to come hither?
8933He had not gone very far when he met Lion, and Lion said to him'':''Well, brother Ananzi, where have you been?
8933He said this to his wife, and added:''I wonder now if they would sell me the boy; then I''d soon put him out of the way?''
8933He said to her,''Will you wash my head?''
8933He said,''It is all that fellow Ananzi who has tied me to the tree, but will you loose me?''
8933Here who should come out into the kitchen but the Queen, and she asked him whence he came, and on what errand he was bound?
8933How did the fables and apologues which are found in_ Aesop_, and which are also found in the_ Pantcha Tantya_ and the_ Hitopadesa_ come West?
8933Is it likely now that they should have been so heavy at heart as to hang themselves, all these three?
8933Is it true what people say, that the Devil can make himself as small as he pleases?''
8933Is it you who took my seven silver ducks?''
8933Is it you'', he roared,''that took my seven silver ducks?''
8933Is that what you''re thinking of?''
8933Is there any rhyme or reason in giving me such a box on the ear?''
8933Is there anything you want?
8933Just as he said that, up came the Troll:''Who is this'', he said,''that touches my wood?''
8933Let''s hear?''
8933Meantime Shortshanks went to the kitchen- maid, and asked her so prettily if he might n''t go down to the strand for a bit?
8933Next morning, when they were to get up, the Prince asked:''Who is this that steps out of my bed?''
8933Now I think it over, what should I do with a pig?
8933One day Shortshanks and the king were out walking, and Shortshanks asked the king if he had n''t any more children?
8933QUA?
8933Sha n''t we ask him in and treat him a little; he looks as if he needed it, poor chap?''
8933She asked the girl several times,''Nancy Fairy, did you see what I was doing?''
8933She had scarce time to slam to the trap- door before the Man o''the Hill came to her and asked:''Will you be my sweetheart?''
8933She said to Snow- white and Rosy- red,''Why are you so sorrowful, my daughter?
8933So Peter went down to the mill, and asked the miller''s wife whether she would sell him her son; she should get a heap of money for him?
8933So Shortshanks came in, and the Ogre asked him if it were true that he could brew a hundred lasts of malt at a strike?
8933So he asked the lad who watched them, whose all these blacks, and bays, and browns, and chesnuts were?
8933So his bride asked him again why he did n''t talk, and bade him ask now, why her face was so ugly and ashen- grey?
8933So one day they had sent her to the burn to fetch water: and what do you think?
8933So the Giant came home again at even with his goats; and the first words he said were:''Have you brought my horse down from the hill?''
8933So the old woman asked her,''Nancy Fairy, did you see what I was doing?''
8933So the wife asked how things had gone with him in town?
8933So they did that, and when Annie the goose- girl came and stepped upon the stone the Prince asked:''Who is this that steps into my bed?''
8933So ugly have I never been; it''s surely the Deil himself?''
8933So when Boots came up to the palace, the Princess asked whether it were true he had a tap which could do such and such things?
8933So when Putraka had heard that he said''Why fight about it?
8933So when Putraka had heard that, he asked them with a laugh:''Why, what''s the good of owning these things?''
8933So when he went in, the mistress asked him:''Whence do you come, master?''
8933So when she went up the stairs, her wooden cloak made such a clatter, the Prince came out and asked:''Pray who are you?''
8933So when the Giant had slumbered a good bit, he began to stretch himself as he lay on the bench and called out,''Will it be soon done?''
8933So when they had gone a great, great way farther-- I''m sure I ca n''t tell how far-- the Foal asked again:''Do you see anything now?''
8933So, as he went up and up, the brook got smaller and smaller, and at last, a little way farther on, what do you think he saw?
8933So, when he came home at even, the woman asked what he had done with all her flocks?
8933So, when they got to the first palace, the Queen asked if he had spoken to the Dragon about her gold keys?
8933So, when they had gone a bit of the way, the White Bear said:''Are you afraid?''
8933So, when they had sat a while, Little Peter began to mutter to his skin:''What are you saying now?
8933So, whenever they came to grand castles, and woods, and parks, and she asked whose they were?
8933Soon after he was stopped by the third thief, who said,"Brahmin, why do you carry a dog on your back?"
8933Soon after they got to the end of the wood, and a Troll with three heads came running up:''Who is this that touches my wood?''
8933Stay for us, stay for us, how long will you stay for us?
8933That''s she, is it?''
8933The Gods themselves came later into being-- Who knows from whence this great creation sprang?
8933The Lion said,''Are you come; what news?''
8933The folk from the palace were all amazed at this sight, and asked, were there not more on board?
8933Then Atoukama called to Quanqua to drive the ox across, but all she could get out of him was,''QUAN?
8933Then Dapplegrim began to prick up his ears again, and at last he asked the lad if he heard anything?
8933Then Gudbrand opened the door and said;''Well, what do you say now?
8933Then Gudrun laughed, and said''Thinkst thou that Gunnar really rode the flame?
8933Then Peter stood and looked at him for some time, wondering what had come over him; but at last he asked:''What do you lie there staring at?''
8933Then he blew his horn and called them, and asked if any of them knew where Whiteland lay?
8933Then seeds were sown, and mighty powers arose-- Nature below, and power and will above-- Who knows the secret?
8933Then she asked if she might n''t go with him?
8933Then the King asked him whence he came, and whither he was going?
8933Then the Princess asked the Ogre if he had laid hold of any one who could brew a hundred lasts of malt at one strike?
8933Then the Princesses asked him what he lacked, and if he did n''t like to live with them any longer?
8933Then the man said,''Why, what''s the matter?
8933Then the old man said,''What are you after now?
8933Then they went on eating, but Ananzi wanted to revenge himself, and he said to the Lion,''Which of us do you think is the strongest?''
8933There she sat again, sobbing and crying, and not knowing which way to turn, when another old woman came in and asked:''What ails you, child?''
8933There she went from room to room, and in the innermost one the Man o''the Hill came to her and asked if she would be his sweetheart?
8933There stood the King out on the steps, and asked whither he was bound?
8933This caused him to laugh, whereupon his wife said to him''What dost thou hear that thou laughest?''
8933Towards evening he met a funeral, and asked whose it was?
8933WHAT DO YOU WANT?''
8933Was it the water''s fathomless abyss?
8933Was n''t that a great shame?
8933Well, the Mastermaid asked him, as she had asked the Constable, if he had a good lot of money?
8933What are we to say of such a remarkable resemblance as this?
8933What covered all?
8933What do we want with a horse?
8933What should we do with a goose?
8933What should we do with the cock?
8933What''s the good of my dragging this chest about?
8933When he came to the third King''s palace, out came the King and asked if he had asked the Dragon of what he begged him?
8933When he got home, his brothers laughed and asked how he had fared?
8933When she passed out of her father''s land into another, she asked whose it was?
8933When the Brahmin, who carried the goat on his back, approached the first thief, the thief said,"Brahmin, why do you carry a dog on your back?"
8933When the Princess heard what was going on, she came to the window, and asked him how he did, and whether he would sell the golden wool- winder?
8933When they came to the second palace, the King asked if he had spoken to the Dragon of what he begged him?
8933Whilst she was eating, a voice said,''Do you know what you are eating?
8933Who then died with fear but I?
8933Whose is it?
8933Why?
8933_ Quan?
8933are we to go home already?''
8933asked the Prince,''why is your face so ugly and ashen- grey?''
8933asked the Sportsman;''what are they like?''
8933asked the kitchen- maid,''and what business have you down there?''
8933asked the old hag;''but maybe you are the lassie who ought to have had him?''
8933but is it you after all, Halvor?''
8933but will you have a wether or a ewe?
8933but will you have goose or gander-- goose or gander?
8933ca n''t you stop?
8933can you see anything now?''
8933can you see anything?''
8933cried his wife;''why, you do everything to please me, just as if I had been with you; what do we want with a goat?
8933do n''t you know I''m inside the purse?''
8933do n''t you see the bright light?''
8933for the love of heaven, can I get leave to stay here a while, and sit inside the stable door?''
8933groaned the Priest inside the sack,''wherever are we going?''
8933he asked,''what are you doing?''
8933he asked,''will you beat your husband to death?''
8933he said to Shortshanks,''did n''t I say you were not to call me except in your utmost need?
8933he said,''ca n''t you hold your jaw?''
8933if you can only call the flock; let me hear?''
8933in Heaven''s name'', she said,''what do you want here?''
8933is that you?
8933it is, is it?
8933may I have leave to go up with it?''
8933qua?_''At last she said,''Oh!
8933qua?_( how?
8933qua?_( how?
8933roared the Troll;''is it you who took my seven silver ducks?''
8933said Boots to himself;''it''s you that gobbles up our hay, is it?
8933said Boots;''is that all?
8933said he,''how can I forget you; you with whom I have gone through so much, and whom I love so dearly?''
8933said he;''this comes from Peter the Pedlar, does it?
8933said his brothers,''you would, would you?
8933said his wife;''and what have you done with the sheet and shift?''
8933said she,''what should I care for a bundle of twigs?''
8933said she;''if you only knew how to call the flock; let me hear?''
8933said the Fox;''why are you so down in the mouth?''
8933said the Ogre;''why did you let him go away then, when you knew he was the very man I wanted?''
8933said the Prince, who looked as stupid as an owl,''what sort of thing is that, master?
8933said the Smith;''it_ is_ true, is it?
8933said the Snipe,''why did you shoot my children after all?''
8933said the Snipe;''do n''t you know that each one thinks his own children the prettiest in the world?''
8933said the Squire,''has he taken me in this time too?''
8933said the elder,''and what shall your name be?''
8933said the girl,''why did you do that?
8933said the hag, as she came in at the door;''is your Buttercup at home to- day?''
8933said the hag,''is your Buttercup at home to- day?''
8933said the kitchen- maid,''what should take you down there?''
8933said the lad to himself,''it''s you, is it, that comes here eating up our hay?
8933said the man,''were you really so heavy at heart that you hanged yourself up there-- or is it only a piece of witchcraft that I see before me?
8933said the old wife,''how can I lend any one house- room?
8933said the younger,''my name shall be Shortshanks; and yours, what shall it be?''
8933screamed the Devil,''are you mad?
8933screamed the hag,''what has become of my eye?''
8933screeched Grizzel, who stuck to her own;''but will you have a wether or a ewe-- a wether or a ewe?
8933she called out,''dare Christian folk come hither?
8933she kept on screaming,''you might as well have said whether you would have goose or gander?''
8933she screamed;''is he fat?''
8933that she might really know the truth, she went off and knocked at her master''s door, and asked,''Is your Girzie at home the day, father?''
8933they were both ready to go, and on the way his mother talked to him, and asked,''How it was he had got so strong?''
8933thought the lad;''it''s you, is it, that eats up our hay?
8933what a stout heart you have got'', said the old dame;''do n''t you see we have got amongst Trolls?''
8933what ails you?''
8933what concealed?
8933what have you done now?''
8933what have you done now?''
8933what sheltered?
8933what''s that?''
8933what?)
8933whence have you come?''
8933who proclaimed it here, Whence, whence this manifold creation sprang?
8933why do n''t you show me the thing at once?
8933why, ca n''t you sleep?''
8933will you have a wether or a ewe?
8933with all my heart'', cried his wife;''what should I do with a sheep?
8933you do, do you?''
40359Ah, did I not say as much?
40359And a very good trade, too; and what have you brought home with you?
40359And how would you do so?
40359And how?
40359And what besides?
40359And what have you brought home with you?
40359And what if he be Satan himself?
40359And what is there wanting in mine?
40359And what,says he,"shall I now do for my poor mother?"
40359And would you be glad if you were?
40359And you call her a dove?
40359Are these your tricks upon travelers? 40359 Are they?"
40359Are you afraid?
40359Are you mad?
40359Are you my son- in- law?
40359Be content,answered the Frog,"I dare say I can give you some good advice; but what will you give me if I bring back your plaything to you?"
40359But is there no way to save him?
40359But since you are so terribly learned, I''ll put a question to you, and that shall not be a long one:Twigmuntus, Cowbelliantus, Perchnosius?
40359But suppose you get tired of me?
40359But tell me, child, how came you here, and how is it you have neither father nor mother nor friend?
40359But where are my two Sisters?
40359But why should you be unhappy, my Princess?
40359But, my son, have you never looked in the brook?
40359But,said Prince Cherry,"shall I not be disgraced if I harm a creature so perfectly innocent?"
40359Ca n''t anybody make that fellow hush?
40359Can not all your learning help you to open your mouths, so that I can have an answer to my question?
40359Can you wash this clean, lassie?
40359Can your name be RUMPEL- STILTS- KEN?
40359Canst thou show anything like it?
40359Did I frighten you, my Princess?
40359Did I not come here yesterday, and was not the whole palace gone, and was there not an old hut in its place? 40359 Did I not order you to be hanged yesterday like any common thief?"
40359Did you do well?
40359Did you have pity on me when I implored your aid, ungrateful wretch?
40359Did you have pity on me when I implored your aid, ungrateful wretch?
40359Did you sell her well, Jack?
40359Did you sell her well?
40359Do I displease you?
40359Do I look like one whose business it is to sweep the brooks? 40359 Do n''t you know that you lack an eye, a leg, and a wing?
40359Do n''t you see that horrid fish is trying to drag me in?
40359Do n''t you think that it is a shameful thing for a man like you, young and with a good, healthy appearance, to be demanding charity of people? 40359 Do you care more for a miserable mouse than for your own baby?
40359Do you know what the child''s name is?
40359Do you know who that is in there, mother?
40359Do you know why they make you so comfortable, and why they feed you and look after you so well?
40359Do you remember the promise you made to my friend, the Yellow Dwarf? 40359 Do you see that great rock yonder?"
40359Do you see the palace over there?
40359Do you see the palace over there?
40359Do you see the palace over yonder behind the forest?
40359Do you see the palace there?
40359Do you take me for a clerk? 40359 Do you think I am the man to let myself be hanged?
40359Do you think that I do, either?
40359Do you think, now, you are big enough to revenge yourself?
40359Do you think,said she, with a pettish air,"that a good husband would leave that door wide open, and not know that his wife was freezing with cold?"
40359Do you want to try for the Princess''s hand?
40359Exactly there, was it?
40359Explain yourself, dear Finette; what farce are we playing now?
40359Five kittens?
40359Five kittens?
40359Good day, Granny,said the Princess;"what are you doing?"
40359Good day, my good people, and thanks for your kindness last time we met,said the Cock;"where are you all going to- day?"
40359Good morning, ducky darling,said the lady friend,"whither away, so bold and gay, this fine, new day?"
40359Good morning, my good neighbor,said friend Fox;"where are you going so early in the day?"
40359Good morning, my spoonbill,she said,"whither do you go, so happy and slow, while the soft breezes blow?"
40359Good morning, neighbor Bill,said Wasp- nest;"whither do we run, so full of fun, in the bright warm sun?"
40359Hark ye, bumpkin?
40359Hast thou the golden apple?
40359Have I not ordered you to pull down the palace and hang the builder?
40359Have a lad and a lass passed by this way?
40359Have you been to the bottomless pit to collect my rent?
40359Have you brought back the horse?
40359Have you cleaned the stable?
40359Have you hold of the knob?
40359Have you lost your wits? 40359 Have you seen anyone passing here with a fair damsel, a horse with a golden bridle, a golden bird, and a gilded linden tree?"
40359Have you the tongs?
40359How can I break this spell?
40359How can I have eaten well? 40359 How can I have eaten well?
40359How can that be done?
40359How can you still doubt that I love you with all my heart?
40359How dare you come into my garden like a thief, and steal my corn salad?
40359How did you come here, my sweet child?
40359How did you come to know about him?
40359How did you get the ring which was in the soup?
40359How do you mean?
40359How far are you going to- day?
40359How is it possible for me to marry?
40359How much did you get for her?
40359How much did you get for her?
40359How much did you get for her?
40359How much do you want?
40359I come? 40359 I think the trolls must have bewitched your eyes in the forest and made you quite crazy; or what do you think?"
40359If it''s not for sale for gold or money, what is it that you will sell it for?
40359In mine?
40359In truth, madam,answered Desire,"do not say any more about my nose; it is as it is, and in what does it concern you?
40359Is it JEMMY?
40359Is it JOHN?
40359Is it TOM?
40359Is it one of the animals that you have in this country? 40359 Is the woman out of her mind?"
40359Is there no one else on board the ship than those I see?
40359Is there no way to save him?
40359Is this house and furniture yours?
40359It is easy to say,''Let us go,''but how can we walk so far?
40359It is you, you villain, is it? 40359 Jack,"says he,"I am glad to see you; how would you like to have these animals?"
40359Jack,says he,"how would you like to be master of all these animals?"
40359Maybe it''s you who ought to have had the Prince?
40359My cat?
40359Nay, but,said the man,"what if some evil befall me?"
40359Nothing else?
40359Nothing,said the Duke;"but, bless me, what could I have given you, who are not of flesh and blood, and whom I can not see either?"
40359Now, little Niels,said he,"what dost thou say to this sword?"
40359Of what, my dear child?
40359Oh, do n''t you know that the King owes me money? 40359 Oh, pray do n''t; why do you wish to do so?"
40359Oh, what is the pain in my fingers to the torment which my heart endures?
40359Oh, you wicked child, what do you say? 40359 On what must I give judgment?"
40359On what must I give judgment?
40359On what must I give judgment?
40359On what shall I give judgment?
40359Rubbish, do you call it, Madam Grumbly?
40359Say you so?
40359So, so, it''s you, is it?
40359Speak with the King? 40359 Surely for one hundred florins you''ll sell it?"
40359Then how is it that I have never seen you before?
40359There are lots of bushes, but where are the berries? 40359 There you stick and grin at me; but who knows if I may not be keeping you company before the day is over, and be grinning with you at others?
40359Very well,said Finette;"how will you set to work to ride him?"
40359WHAT DO YOU WANT?
40359Was it long ago?
40359Well, I''m very comfortable where I am,said the Goose;"but why should n''t I join you?
40359Well, how are you getting on?
40359Well, my dear boy,said the old man,"what have you been doing all these months?"
40359Well, my good old dame, what can I do for you?
40359Well, then,says the man,"how will you and me make a bargain about them?"
40359Well, where is thy sword?
40359Well,said the Tailor,"has the Goat eaten well?"
40359What am I doing on this horse?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are master''s orders?
40359What are you crying for?
40359What are you doing, rascal?
40359What are you looking for?
40359What are you looking for?
40359What are you standing there gaping for?
40359What are you thinking of, my son?
40359What can have happened?
40359What can it do, then?
40359What could possibly happen if I did?
40359What did you dream then, my girl?
40359What do I see?
40359What do I want with the little wretches? 40359 What do you mean?"
40359What do you say?
40359What do you think you can do?
40359What do you want for your golden apple, lassie?
40359What do you want?
40359What does this mean?
40359What harm has the poor beast done?
40359What hast thou done?
40359What have you done, Zelia?
40359What heads are these?
40359What is it, pray?
40359What is myfinette?
40359What is the thing that whirls round so merrily?
40359What is to become of me?
40359What is your name, and what do you want here?
40359What is your name, my little one?
40359What is your name, vassal?
40359What matters it to you, old fool?
40359What matters that?
40359What means this pony that I am leading? 40359 What news to- day?"
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news to- day?
40359What news, courier? 40359 What should I do without you, Percinet?"
40359What were you doing, little man?
40359What will I have to do?
40359What will I have to do?
40359What will I have to do?
40359What will you give me,said the hobgoblin,"to do it for you?"
40359What work can your daughter do?
40359What''s the meaning of this?
40359What''s to be done?
40359What, still more? 40359 Where are you dragging that poor cat?"
40359Where are you going to, dear bear?
40359Where are you going to?
40359Where are you off to?
40359Where are you, Tommy, my dear Tommy?
40359Where did you find these fine things?
40359Where did you find these fine things?
40359Where has it gone to, then?
40359Where shall I find it, then?
40359Where was the Tiger, then?
40359Whereabouts does he live, then?
40359Who else should I be?
40359Who has put such a folly into your head? 40359 Who is it that has dared to build such a palace on my grounds?"
40359Who is that stealing my horse and my bridle?
40359Who is that stealing my tree and my bird?
40359Who''s there?
40359Why can not you marry some one in your own rank? 40359 Why can not you?"
40359Why did you bring only two? 40359 Why didst thou not tear that old man and the wheat to pieces?"
40359Why didst thou not tear the black monk to pieces and pull down the monastery? 40359 Why have you come here, my child?"
40359Why have you come here? 40359 Why have you returned?"
40359Why so?
40359Why?
40359Will you give me your youngest daughter? 40359 Will you just cut the thread, master?"
40359Will you let me pass the night here, good people?
40359Will you please to drink?
40359Yes, and how will you set to work to sweep it?
40359Yes, but what have I got in return?
40359Yes,said the father,"you are just the right sort of fellow; if the clever ones ca n''t succeed, what will you be able to do?"
40359You are jesting?
40359You here again, my child?
40359You''re surely not going to jump into the water?
40359You?
40359A voice came from within and asked her:"Where do you come from and where do you want to go?"
40359Again the eagle asked him:"How dost thou feel?"
40359Again the other servants set up a murmur:"What is he about?
40359Ah, beautiful king''s daughter, what is going to befall you now?
40359All night long he sat sighing to himself:"How can I ever find a ring which she dropped into the river a month ago?
40359Am I going to abandon you?
40359Am I not here?
40359And Drakesbill was off again, spruce and fresh as a busy bee, and singing,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359And Drakesbill, spruce and fresh as ever, began to sing again,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359And Drakesbill, spruce and fresh as ever, swam hither and thither, singing,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359And did not I go into that hut, and did not you stand stark naked right before my eyes?"
40359And he said:"How can I help weeping?
40359And immediately he knew her again and said:"Do you remember how I told you that day that you would betray me?
40359And the answer came as before:"What are master''s orders?"
40359And the archer replied:"What can I give?"
40359And the eagle said to the archer:"Go to my house, and when they ask thee:''Hast thou not seen our poor child?''
40359And the eagle''s father said to him:"What good will such a thing do thee?
40359And the girl asked him:"Why art thou weeping?"
40359And what became of the fair- haired lady?
40359And what have you brought home with you?"
40359Are you dissatisfied with my birth, my understanding, my temper, or my manners?"
40359As he pronounced these words something answered right in his ear:"What are master''s orders?"
40359As she cried an ugly woman with a monstrously big nose came into the room and asked:"Why do you cry?"
40359As soon as she was alone the dwarf came in and said:"What will you give me to spin gold for you this third time?"
40359At that moment an old she dragon came up to him and said:"What wilt thou give me, O man, if I chase this ox back again into the egg for thee?"
40359At the sound the crone awoke, ran down to the water, and cried in an angry tone:"Is that thou, Pinkel?"
40359At this sight she was sorely vexed, and hurrying down to the shore, cried aloud:"Is that thou, Pinkel?"
40359Avenant came, creeping feebly along, fell at the King''s knees, and kissed his feet:"O sire, what have I done that you should treat me so cruelly?"
40359Bartolo moved away in a desponding mood, saying to himself as he walked on:"Is this the justice of the world?
40359But his daughter, in utter amazement, cried out:"But what if he be a wicked elf, and all he does be witchcraft?"
40359But how could I be sure that you would not be like other men and tire of me from the moment you were sure I loved you?"
40359But of what use is the stick, except to make the sack heavier?"
40359But she said to them very politely:"Pray tell me what you are looking for here?"
40359But the King, looking at her with a friendly glance, reached her his hand, saying,"Will you go with me to my castle and be my dear wife?"
40359But the Mother refused, and said:"Shall I lose my youngest child too?"
40359But the father wanted to make sure; so he went into the stable and stroked the Goat, saying:"Goat, have you eaten well?"
40359But what about the light?
40359But what matter?
40359But where can you have been all this time?"
40359Ca n''t you come and help me?"
40359Can not you get me a wife?"
40359Can you assert this-- you who have so much, and who so earnestly desired to possess it?
40359Can you give me an answer to that?"
40359Did I not cast her into prison and intend to sell her as a slave?
40359Did not I see the mother once?
40359Did nothing come out, then?"
40359Did they live here all alone in the wild wood?
40359Did you hear or see anything in the dead of the night?"
40359Do you believe that Providence has saved us from the fangs of that monster to wreck us in port?"
40359Do you hear that?"
40359Do you hear?
40359Do you not think that at Rome itself you will regret the ease and plenty of such a life?"
40359Do you see the stinging nettle which I hold in my hand?
40359Does it not strike you that you have a duty to earn your living by working at your trade?"
40359Does nothing better occur to you than that?"
40359Had he brought the bride the jewels of some queen?
40359Had he conquered a kingdom, a duchy, or a barony?
40359Had the fairies protected him?
40359Hast thou forgotten me then altogether?"
40359Have you courage to go with us?
40359Have you forgotten me altogether?"
40359Have you lost your senses?
40359He glared at the girls with his fiery red eyes and screamed out:"What are you standing there for?
40359His wife, he was sure, would not like such a guest, and who could say what he might take it into his head to do?
40359How could anyone dare to say such a thing?
40359How is it you never told me of them?
40359How many rivals had he overthrown?
40359How shall I know now whether my Delicia is being taken care of or not?
40359How should she get out there?
40359How was she to go farther?
40359How?
40359I have driven all the rest of the live stock out of the house, and why should I be afraid of sending this brute after them?"
40359I have sought you and have crossed a glassy mountain, three sharp swords, and a great lake before I found you, and will you not hear me now?"
40359I wonder if you can read what is written on this bit of paper, and if you recognize it?"
40359I wonder if you guessed that when that happened, I should tell you that I love you with all my heart, and will marry you whenever you like?"
40359I''ll turn myself into standing wheat and thee into an old man guarding me, and if he ask thee,''Hast thou seen a lad and a lass pass by this way?''
40359I, the master of a great empire, can not I kick my own dog?"
40359If the King is killed, what will become of me and of my little daughter?"
40359In the evening he went into the nursery, and about midnight the Queen appeared and said:"How fares my child, how fares my Fawn?
40359In the evening, when it was time to return, he said:"Goat, have you eaten well?"
40359In the poultry yard?
40359Is a giant standing outside the door to carry you off?"
40359Is it almost ready?"
40359Is it fair that he should do so or not?"
40359Is it just that he should do so or no?"
40359Is it reasonable that persons of intellect should be in a worse position than those that have none?
40359Is it you?
40359Is not my place in my father''s house at my sister''s wedding?
40359Is thy great cat alive, and at home still?"
40359It happened once when a great feast was being held in the palace that she said to the cook:"Can I go upstairs for a little bit and look on?
40359Judging from her costume she was a foreigner; could she be the Duchess of Normandy or the Queen of France?
40359Marriage or prison, which do you choose?"
40359Must I take this order to my poor son?"
40359My arm is strong enough to carry you through the wood; and will not all our wings be strong enough to fly with you over the sea?"
40359Not long after news was brought him; but what think you it was?
40359Now tell me, O King, plump and plain, will you give your daughter to my son as wife?"
40359Now the King loved money more than anything else in the world, so he cried joyfully:"Marry you?
40359Now, the poor old woman was mortally afraid, and in a trembling voice she asked:"Is that really your royal will, O King?
40359Of what use would riches, power, or beauty be to him if he were an evil man?"
40359Oh, when shall I get my money back?"
40359On hearing their story, the King was greatly excited, and said:"Where is this goat to be found, and who can procure it for me?"
40359On hearing this the King''s attention was excited, and he asked:"Where is this lantern to be found, and who can procure it for me?"
40359On perceiving him, the Troll cast on him a savage glance, and said:"Pinkel, is that thou?"
40359Or is there anyone here who dares to believe it?"
40359Overcome with pity, Martin spoke to the butchers, saying:"Friends, why are you beating the poor dog so cruelly?"
40359Pray how did you sleep last night?
40359Pressed by hunger Bartolo, taking his cap off respectfully, approached and said:"Excuse me, sir, but could you kindly give me a trifle?
40359Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359Said the Hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
40359Said the Hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
40359Said the Hag:"How would you like to stay here with me, for I want a maid?"
40359Said the limekiln:"Do you think I have nothing to do but watch your maids for you?
40359Setting aside my ugliness, is there anything in me that displeases you?
40359Shall I let him alone or drive him out?
40359Shall I look about the house?
40359Shall I slay it, or shall I not slay it?"
40359She was very much surprised, and running to her husband, awoke him, saying:"Do you know what animal you fetched home last night?"
40359So he called out to his wife, and said:"Where did you get this beautiful dog?"
40359So he went home and greeted them all, and as he did so he thought to himself:"Why should I not greet my uncle''s daughter like the rest of them?
40359So she called out:"Father Cobra, father Cobra, my husband has come to fetch me; will you let me go?"
40359So she crept into the hole again and began to beat for game, and out came an old woman, who said to the youth:"What art thou poking about there for?"
40359So the general went and said to him:"Come, why do n''t you marry?
40359So they went home, and he put it in the stable; but as he was going, he said once more:"Goat, have you eaten well?"
40359So when he came thither and fell a- weeping, she asked him:"Wherefore dost thou weep?"
40359So, when they had gone a bit of the way, the White Bear said:"Are you afraid?"
40359Some time passed by, and one evening the Duke heard these words:"Are you satisfied now?"
40359Soon afterwards the dragon came flying past, and asked the monk:"Hast thou seen a lad and a lass pass by this way?"
40359Soon he met a bear, who, noticing how frightened he looked, said:"What has happened, Brother Fox, to make you look like that?"
40359Tell me a little how things are going on at court now; are the ladies still as fond of running about?
40359That''s she, is it?"
40359The Brahman told his story, and said to him:"Uncle Jackal, Uncle Jackal, say what is your judgment?"
40359The King dared not speak, but he watched the following night, and this time she said:"How fares my child, how fares my Fawn?
40359The King saw that her heart was beating violently, and said:"Well, my child, why are you afraid?
40359The Man of the white beard asked his animals again:"Pretty Hen, and pretty Cock, And pretty brindled Cow, What have you to say to that?"
40359The Man said:"Pretty Hen, pretty Cock, And pretty brindled Cow, What have you to say to that?"
40359The Old Man asked the animals a third time in the same words:"Pretty Hen, pretty Cock, And pretty brindled Cow, What have you to say to that?"
40359The Old Man replied as before:"Pretty Hen, pretty Cock, And pretty brindled Cow, What have you to say to that?"
40359The Queen sent for Graciosa, and said to her:"Do you see this skein?
40359The Troll continued:"Art thou not a big knave?"
40359The Troll continued:"Art thou not a great knave?"
40359The Troll continued:"Art thou not a great knave?"
40359The cow said:"Do you think I have nothing to do but watch your maids for you?
40359The crone said to him:"What is thy name, my boy?"
40359The crone said:"Hast thou stolen my golden goat?"
40359The crone said:"Hast thou taken my beautiful golden cloak?"
40359The first words that he uttered were:"Who is the lady of the beautiful picture?"
40359The girl consented, and standing by the river bank, said to her stepsister:"Sister, may I try on your jewels?
40359The goat said:"Do you think I have nothing to do but watch your maids for you?
40359The horse said:"Do you think I have nothing to do but watch your maids for you?
40359The landlord opened his round eyes, saying:"I wonder what it is?"
40359The maiden answered:"How can I go to the well?
40359The man asked him where he was bound for?
40359The man did not want to sit on him, but what could he do?
40359The next morning, when the King awoke, what do you think he saw?
40359The poor King was horrified when he heard this, for how could he do such an awful deed as to kill his own children?
40359The servant stood there in amazement, and he thought to himself:"However in this world shall I be able to drive all these cattle back again?"
40359The sheep said:"Do you think I have nothing to do but watch your maids for you?
40359The wicked Goat replied:"How can I have eaten well?
40359The wicked animal, not thinking for the moment to whom he was replying, answered with the usual complaint:"How can I have eaten well?
40359Then Drakesbill was off again, all spruce and fresh as a spring morning, and still singing,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359Then Drakesbill was off again, spruce and fresh as any dapper little dandy, and singing,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359Then he again went to the fence and wept, and the maiden said to him:"Why dost thou weep?"
40359Then he asked her:"What do you do in my palace?"
40359Then he said to him again:"Good bangle seller, I would see these strange people of whom you speak; can not you take me there?"
40359Then he said,"And will you now come home with me?"
40359Then he stretched his limbs, half opened one eye, and cried out,"Do you hear me?
40359Then he yawned, stretched his great limbs, and cried out impatiently,"Is n''t it ready yet?"
40359Then her husband became alarmed, and said:"What ails you, my dear wife?"
40359Then her mother flew into a passion, gave her a box on the ear, and cried out:"Does not even that prince please you, you fool?"
40359Then one of them, who looked up, asked the lad in ordinary language:"Who are you?"
40359Then she grew frightened and thought:"What can a young lassie do with an iron stove?"
40359Then she knew not what to do, and sat down once more to weep; but the dwarf soon opened the door and said:"What will you give me to do your task?"
40359Then the Maiden asked:"Shall we not also take our rest?"
40359Then the Ranee thought:"What will the Rajah say when he finds I have been telling him such stories?
40359Then the father was very grieved for a time, but what could he do?
40359Then the girl replied:"Why didst thou not lay hold of her?
40359Then the hen dove said to him again:"And hast thou forgotten how we two went together in search of the golden hare?
40359Then the man thought to himself:"What shall I do?
40359Then they asked him:"Hast thou seen our son?
40359Then they asked:"Hast thou smelt out anything of our poor youngster?
40359Thinking he might belong to the household of the Duchess, she said:"How long have you been one of the King''s pages?"
40359This Cobra was a very wise animal, and seeing the maiden, he put his head out of his hole and said to her,"Little girl, why do you cry?"
40359Two days longer we can remain here, and then must we fly away to a beautiful land which is not our home; and how can we take you with us?
40359Was it at all likely?
40359Was the cage door open or shut?"
40359Waska, being very agile, climbed up by the outside to the grated window and called in an anxious voice:"Are you alive, master?"
40359Waska, my faithful little cat, is that you?"
40359Were ever any so divinely beautiful?
40359What can you want with me?"
40359What could there be inside that chest?
40359What do you think about it yourself?"
40359What do you want?
40359What has come over you?"
40359What in the world did you make such a noise for?"
40359What is he doing here?"
40359What is the good of being a Queen, if one is to be slighted like this?"
40359What is this myfinette?
40359What is your advice upon the matter?"
40359What news?"
40359What other woman than Finette could be by the side of Yvon?
40359What people?"
40359What pleasure would you get from a poor, feeble little fellow like me?
40359What present shall we send our royal brother as a pledge of our good will, this Christmas- time?"
40359What punishment shall be dealt to her?"
40359What right has an eagle to eat up a raven?"
40359What shall I do meanwhile to amuse myself?
40359What shall I do?
40359What shall I find in the fourth room, I wonder-- diamond soup?"
40359What sort of a soup is this?
40359What were they to do?
40359What will my husband think if he learns that this wretched, ugly, miserable- looking dog is my mother?"
40359What?"
40359When Finette had learned what was the task of the day,"Well,"said she,"how will you go to work to do it?"
40359When Martin got home his mother met him with the question:"Well, what have you bought?"
40359When he had snored a full hour, the giant stretched his limbs, half opened one eye, and cried,"Is it ready?"
40359When he reached his home his mother greeted him with the question:"Well, what have you brought back?"
40359When he went into the house, the Tailor met him, and asked him:"Has the Goat eaten well?"
40359When she had done she said:"I am very tired; where is my bed, where I shall lie down and sleep?"
40359When some time had passed away, the Queen one night began to speak, and said:"How fares my child, how fares my Fawn?
40359When the King heard all this he became very thoughtful, and said:"Where is this cloak to be found, and who can procure it for me?"
40359When the church- goers came on board, the captain said:"Wherever did you get all that food for the dog?
40359When the dwarf had recovered from the first shock he screamed in his squeaking voice:"Could n''t you have treated me more carefully?
40359When the last had finished his harangue he asked:"Can you reply to that?"
40359When the party returned home, the Rajah''s brother said to him:"Where did you get these magnificent presents?"
40359When you come, will you bring a skein of silk with you every time?
40359Where are you going?"
40359Where could he come from, and how came he here?
40359Where did he come from?
40359Where did you get these apples?"
40359Where do they live?"
40359Where had he been?
40359Where have you been all these years?"
40359Where was she?
40359Which do you like, canary, St. Julien, champagne, hermitage sack, raisin, or cider?"
40359While she was thus lamenting, some one called to her:"What is the matter with you, King''s daughter?
40359Who could believe such a thing?
40359Who else was there to take care of them?
40359Who knows how much more wickedness I might not have done to her and others if Heaven''s justice had not stopped me in time?"
40359Who knows what danger he has averted?"
40359Who knows what he has saved us from?"
40359Why did you not say so before?"
40359Why not make him commander- in- chief?
40359Why should I quit the castle?"
40359Will you accompany me?"
40359Will you stay here with me till that time is over?"
40359You can speak, can you, you ridiculous crab?"
40359[ Illustration:"''WHAT ARE YOU STANDING THERE GAPING FOR?''
40359cried she, in a trembling voice,"what are you doing here?"
40359cried the Princess,"is it really you?
40359cried the skrattel;"canst thou hear, fellow?
40359has nothing come out?"
40359hast thou not caught them or met them on the road?"
40359hast thou not got the hare?
40359he cried,"is this the way you serve me, obliging me to come out and look for you in such pouring rain and on such a dark night as this?
40359he said;"but what should the fool do with his stupidity if he did not make use of it?"
40359how soon he was up and singing louder than ever,"Quack, quack, quack, when shall I get my money back?"
40359howled he,"why is n''t the table set?"
40359is n''t there a quicker way of knowing than that?"
40359replied the Queen;"but are there no means whereby a little more understanding might be given to the elder, who is so lovely?"
40359said the Jackal;"how were you within the cage?
40359said the imp,"that''s all, is it?
40359said the old hag;"but maybe you are the lassie who ought to have had him?"
40359says she,"what do you mean?"
40359says she,"what have you done?"
40359she cried,"what has happened?
40359she said,"do you dare to dispute with me for the prize of beauty, and expect me to endure this insult to my knights?
40359snapped the dwarf;"what''s the good of calling anyone else?
40359the rainy day was close at hand, for their meal was all consumed, and who is prepared to face starvation with two hundred florins at their disposal?
40359thought he,"I am furious against these wicked men, who are carrying her away, and did I not do the same myself?
40359thought the boy,"is it thou who eatest up our hay in the night?
40359to disfigure a fellow''s face?
40359what am I coming to?"
40359what are you coming to look for here?
40359what could a poor little dog do to defend her?
40359what does all this mean?"
40359what does this mean?
40359what will become of me?"
40359when the good Brahman opened your cage door, is to eat him the only return you would make?
40359where are you?
40359where are you?"
40359which way were you looking?"
40359who would not be vexed?"
40359why did you ever leave my house?"
40359why do n''t you love my son, who is far too handsome and too good for you?
40359you great stupids,"murmured Michael;"is it very marvelous that a man should carry his saddle when it will not carry him?"
40359you here, my boy?"
40359you here, my boy?"
5612About a year after, he took him aside, and said to him, Well, son, have you thoroughly considered of what I proposed to you last year about marrying?
5612About the middle of the might, the miller came to my brother, and said, Neighbour, are you asleep?
5612After the first compliments were passed, they inquired what had brought me hither?
5612Agreeable Maimoune, replied Danhasch, may I presume to ask you what this prince is called?
5612Alas, sir, answered she, trembling, who are you?
5612Am I not handsome and agreeable?
5612Am not I a customer to your shop?
5612Am not I unhappy to be born to love, without hope of enjoying him whom I love?
5612Amgrad did all he could to hinder her: What are you doing, madam?
5612Amgrad drank and rose: Where are you going?
5612Amgrad, cried he, what shall we do?
5612And do not you agree that there is no wickedness equal to that of women?
5612And for what crime?
5612And how can I, when I think of your sweet face, entertain that prince with that joy which he always observed in my eyes whenever he came to see me?
5612And what did Imama to Ateca, replies the fisherman?
5612And what hinders you from revealing the secret, says she?
5612And what is that, says the fisherman?
5612And why should I endeavour to live after she is dead?
5612And why should not my eyes be inexhaustible fountains of tears?
5612And why, fool, said the man of the house, do you not answer at first, when people ask you who is there?
5612Another voice asked, What need had the princess of the dervize''s prayers?
5612Are these the actions of Mussulmen, of persons who make professions of probity and justice, and practise all manner of good works?
5612Are you in the contrivance, then, villain?
5612Are you resolved to let me die, without giving me so much comfort as to tell me that you love me?
5612Art thou not now convinced how much thy princess is inferior to my prince in charms?
5612As soon as I saw him, I entreated him to alight, and asked him if he would not take his money?
5612As soon as my wife heard me say so, she immediately cried out, What do you do, husband?
5612Assad awoke at the noise he made, and asked, Who''s there?
5612At these words the children cried out, Agib, What do you say?
5612Bedreddin, astonished at the sight, said, with a pitiful tone, Pray, good people, why do you serve me so?
5612Bedreddin, lifting up his head, said, What is the matter?
5612Before I took leave of the merchant, I asked him if he knew the lady?
5612Before we told down the money, she asked me several questions, and particularly if I was married?
5612Besides, what is become of Schemselnihar and the prince of Persia?
5612But captain, says I, was the merchant''s name, to whom those bales belonged, Sindbad?
5612But for what, good nurse?
5612But he soon heard a voice, which said, Do you know what honest man this is to whom we have done this piece of service?
5612But how could she get into this tower without my consent?
5612But is what you say true?
5612But must we stop here?
5612But pray, replies the cadi, what offence could your master do to me, to oblige me to use him after that rate?
5612But shall we rather flatter ourselves that we may see one another?
5612But tell me what sort of men your brothers are: were they like you?
5612But tell me, replies he, Can you shoot with a bow?
5612But then, brother, says he further, if this marriage should happen, would you expect that my son should settle a jointure on your daughter?
5612But what do I say?
5612But what means have I to come at the knowledge of her?
5612But wherein have I offended you, replies the fisherman?
5612But why do I talk of that?
5612But why should your fear of wronging an innocent man hinder your putting this physician to death?
5612But, replies he, how came you into my dominions, and from whence came you last?
5612But, sir, says I, may I presume to demand of your majesty, if strangers be obliged to observe this law?
5612By what adventure, said she,( fetching a deep sigh,) are you come hither?
5612By what means will you now carry on your correspondence with Schemselnihar?
5612Can I relish his kind words and caresses?
5612Can I see the caliph cheek to cheek with her that I love, and not die of grief?
5612Can not the heads you see on all the gates of this city deter you from such an undertaking?
5612Can the wife of a sovereign, such as I am, be capable of such an infamous action?
5612Can you flatter yourself so far as to believe that the trifling adventures of a young rake can make such an impression upon me as those of my jester?
5612Dare you swear it by the name of the great God?
5612Daughter, said she, you know well you was alone in this apartment; how then could any man come to you?
5612Dear sister, said they to her, what is the matter?
5612Dear sister, says Dinarzade, how surprising are the last events you have told us?
5612Did not I expose myself to a greater danger in getting him out of a house where I thought he was ill- treated?
5612Did not I tell you truly that you would expose your life by your obstinate refusal to let me go with you?
5612Did not he throw himself into danger, and could he have come off so well without my assistance?
5612Did not you sit down when you came hither, replies the genie?
5612Did not you take dates out of your portmanteau, and, as you ate them, did not you throw the shells about on both sides?
5612Did you not rise from me but now?
5612Did you think I came so boldly into your house to ask alms?
5612Do not you and I both know what is just?
5612Do you assure me, then, that you will cure me of my leprosy, without making me take any potion, or applying any external medicine?
5612Do you believe, said she, that the hope of seeing me would contribute any thing to rescue him from the danger he is in?
5612Do you imagine that she has any real occasion for your stuffs?
5612Do you know me?
5612Do you know, continued he, that I am master of the secret to make you white, instead of being black as you are?
5612Do you not see this poor man so heavy loaded, that he is scarcely able to stand under it?
5612Do you remember ever seeing me before?
5612Do you see this charming beauty?
5612Do you take Heaven to be witness to this promise, says the genie?
5612Do you think that I would suffer such a filthy fellow to touch me?
5612Do you think there may not be a pastry- cook in the world who knows how to make cream- tarts as well as your son?
5612Does not all that you see make you understand that it is the palace of a Bermecide?
5612Dost thou think I am as perfidious an elf as thyself, and that I am capable of breaking the serious oath I have made?
5612From whom have you this, answered the king, that you dare tell it me?
5612Gentlemen, said he, I am much troubled for that young man and the lady; can you tell me any thing of them?
5612God help you also, answered he, is it possible you do not know me?
5612Good God, cried Bedreddin, what news is this?
5612Good man, replied the servant, whence do you come, that you ask such a question?
5612Good people, replied the cadi, for what should I assassinate your master, whom I do not know, and who has done no offence?
5612Great queen, replied Assad, with tears in his eyes, does your majesty ask what my name was formerly, or what it is now?
5612Had I not better, think you, have tarried in Bagdad, and undergone any fate, rather than have been reduced to this extremity?
5612Has any thing disquieted you?
5612Has he actually no other disease than what is occasioned by the love of me?
5612Has he any reason to complain of me, and to give me so many bad words?
5612Have I given you any occasion to be uneasy?
5612Have you not read the inscription over the gate?
5612Have you seen her confident?
5612Have you shut those eyes that showed me so much love, and were all my joy?
5612Having let down her veil, she told me that she wanted several sorts of the richest and finest stuffs, and asked me if I had them?
5612He advanced towards the pan, and touching one of the fishes with his baton, says to it with a terrible voice,"Fish, art thou in thy duty?"
5612He asked me who I was, and by what adventure I came into his dominions?
5612He asked the princess, in great anger, what has happened to you, and why did you call me?
5612He entered the court full of fear, and perceived a man, who asked him who he was?
5612He has perhaps cured you only in appearance, and not radically; who knows but the medicines he has given you may in time have pernicious effects?
5612He saluted me, and pulling out his handkerchief, where he had a sample of sesame and Turkey corn, asked me what a bushel of such sesame would fetch?
5612He sent for the fisherman; and when he came, says to him, Fisherman, the fishes you have brought us make me very uneasy; where did you catch them?
5612He stopped his horse, asked who she was, how she came to be alone in that place, and what she wanted?
5612He then stepped towards the bed, and said to her, Pray, madam, tell me, is it long since I left you?
5612He your husband, madam?
5612Honest man, said the vizier, who art thou?
5612How came that axe and those ropes there?
5612How came the lady hither who lay with me tonight, and who brought her?
5612How can I appear abroad again without mustachos?
5612How can I have contributed to it?
5612How could she get in here, and by what conveyance, without my consent?
5612How could you resolve, says he, to bring me your own daughter?
5612How did they take the punishment I commanded to be executed on them?
5612How didst thou do, said he, to avoid being taken by the watch?
5612How it comes that each of you have but one eye?
5612How know you, replied the jeweller, that I have another house?
5612How like you this bread?
5612How little reason had I, says he, to think that no one was so unfortunate as myself?
5612How long will you be silent?
5612How shall I get rid of this cursed barber?
5612How, madam, said he, what is it I must believe?
5612How, replied I, did not you tell me the other day that he sat down before your window when you opened it to water your flower- pot?
5612How, replied the gardener, do you imagine I will take these riches as mine which you found out?
5612How, says the dog,, what would you have him to do?
5612Hump- back, who was furiously mad at Bedreddin, suspecting him to be his rival, gave him a cross look, and said, And thou, what dost thou wait for?
5612I also knew the captain; but, being persuaded that he believed me to be drowned, I went and asked him whose bales these were?
5612I am a poet, an architect, nay, what is it I am not?
5612I asked him what reason he had thus to despair?
5612I asked the old woman what was become of the favourite lady?
5612I asked them what brought them there?
5612I believe such a violent proceeding was never heard of before; but against whom should I make my complaint?
5612I called to him, and said, Good slave, pray thee tell me where thou hadst this apple?
5612I cried, Dear cousin, what is the meaning of this?
5612I entertained him very kindly, and asked him how his mistress did?
5612I have e''en made an end of the fellow who was brought to me to be cured?
5612I lifted up my head, and looking wistfully to my husband, Alas, said I, to what condition am I reduced?
5612I must obey him; and what a dismal employment is that for a father?
5612I own I am the man, replied Bedreddin; but pray what crime is that?
5612I put on a sad countenance, and fetched many deep sighs, and began to squeeze out some tears: My good mother, said she, what is the matter with you?
5612I question if ever you come back again on the same errand?
5612I sat up, and asked her who she was?
5612I saw Sindbad perish with my own eyes, and the passengers on board saw it as well as I, and yet you tell me that you are that Sindbad?
5612I saw three apples lying by her, and asked where she had them?
5612I should be glad to know of your majesty for what reason?
5612I suffered myself to be tied as well as the rest, without speaking one word: for to what purpose should I have spoken, or made any resistance?
5612I think you told me you left him behind in the city of the idolaters: can you tell me what he does there?
5612I told him I had the headache, and hoped he would inquire no further; but he took a candle, and saw that my cheek was hurt: How comes this wound?
5612I took out what was most valuable in my bales, and presented it to King Mihrage, who, knowing my misfortune, asked me how I came by such rarities?
5612If I do not know him, said the princess, would you have me to make a lie on purpose to ruin him?
5612If he is, how came he in, or who could have introduced him?
5612If you cast your eyes on the other side, steering up towards Ethiopia, how many other objects of admiration?
5612If you look, added he, towards the island that is formed by the two great branches of the Nile, what variety of verdure have you there?
5612If you speak of the Nile, pray where is there a more admirable river?
5612If your own breast can not keep your secret, how do you think that another person will keep it?
5612Immediately the cadi ran himself, opened the door, and asked what they wanted?
5612In the mean time, what advantage do you reap by all the indignities you suffer?
5612In this condition, and after the thieves had left them, the prince said to the jeweller, What is to be done, my friend, in this conjuncture?
5612In what can I serve you?
5612In what terms shall I express the trouble that I am in?
5612Is Schemselnihar then dead?
5612Is he in my house?
5612Is it a capital crime to make a bad creamtart?
5612Is it bashfulness, said she, that keeps you from speaking?
5612Is it from want of sense, or out of contempt?
5612Is it not enough that he is accused of a design against your life to authorize you to take away his?
5612Is it not just to kill him that has killed another?
5612Is it not reasonable, that, after all this, I should enjoy a quiet and pleasant life?
5612Is it possible they can be insensible of the dangerous consequences of their correspondence?
5612Is it possible they should be capable of taking a man''s life for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?
5612Is it possible, sir, said she, that you take me for an impudent beggar?
5612Is it possible, thought I to myself, that these ladies can be so nice and vindictive for so small a fault?
5612Is it so?
5612Is it thus, replies the physician, that you reward me for curing you?
5612Is it true what you say?
5612Is it true, said he, that you are willing to deliver it for fifty sherriffs?
5612Is not Grand Cairo the largest, the most populous, and the richest city in the universe?
5612Is not this she, said he, whom the sultan my father would have had me marry?
5612Is not this your hatchet?
5612Is that true?
5612It is your company alone that is comfortable to me: but, in a word, I conjure you not to dissemble with me; what news do you bring of Schemselnihar?
5612Know ye, says the king, when he saw him, why I sent for you?
5612Know you that pond, says the sultan to the vizier?
5612Madam, answered the nurse, is it to jest and impose upon us that your highness asks these questions?
5612Madam, said he, how could you live with such wicked people as I have now so justly revenged myself upon?
5612Madam, says the caliph, where is the bundle of hair?
5612May I flatter myself that yours have the same impatience to see me?
5612May not I have so much time, said he, as to take some money and jewels along with me?
5612May one ask you; said I, by what mischance it was that you lost your right hand?
5612Mr Bedreddin, said I to the merchant, what do you say, you must have for this stuff that belongs to me?
5612Must I be rifled, and have all the godds in my house broken in pieces, imprisoned in a chest, and at last nailed to a stake?
5612Must fate add new misfortunes to just complaints?
5612Must such a passionate love as mine be disturbed by so potent a rival?
5612My brother gave no answer, and knocked a second time: the master of the house asked again, Who is there?
5612My dear little one, said he, what hast thou in thy bosom?
5612My dear lord, says she, do not I deceive myself?
5612My dear sisters, says she, are you content that they come in?
5612My lord, replied the slave, I know of no such lady; and if there was any such, how should she come in without my knowledge, since I lay at the door?
5612My lord, said the Jew, then you sell unto me, for a thousand sequins, the lading of the first of your ships that shall arrive in port?
5612My lovely black, replies she, what do you mean by the roots?
5612My son, said, he, you seem to be a young man well educated, and of good sense; how is it possible that you could be guilty of such an unworthy action?
5612No, let me rather die, said the prince; for what signifies it whether I die here or elsewhere?
5612No, said the younger, I will not consent to that; are we not brethren, and equal in title and dignity?
5612Oh, Lord, and for what( cried the lady, feigning astonishment) would they have used you so cruelly?
5612On his arrival, king Camaralzaman asked him if he had done what he ordered?
5612One day as I sat taking the cool air at my gate, a very fine lady came to me, and asked if I did not sell stuffs?
5612One day he knocked thus at a door, and the master of the house, who was alone, cried, Who is there?
5612One of them says to the other, Is not the queen much in the wrong not to love such an amiable prince as this?
5612Perfidious wretch, said the genie to her, pointing at me, is not this your gallant?
5612Pray tell us your history, for it must be extraordinary; how did you venture yourself into this river, and whence did you come?
5612Pray, tell me what crime I am guilty of, to have deserved this usage?
5612Princess, cried I, what means all this?
5612See now what has happened to you by your own fault; and if I had not resolutely followed you to see whither you went, what would have become of you?
5612Seeing that he did not enter, Why do not you come into your house?
5612She is not afraid to expose her life for me, and would you have me to regard mine?
5612She returned a third time; and, at that interview, when we were both warm with wine, she spoke thus: My dear heart, what do you think of me?
5612Should not I and my family be quite destroyed?
5612Silent man, said he to him, I understand that you know wonderful stories; will you tell me some of them?
5612Silent man, said the sultan, speak to me; why do you laugh so hard?
5612Sir, replied one of the domestics, will you listen to a robber, who enters people''s houses to plunder and murder them?
5612Sir, said he, with a dulness that put me out of all patience, what reason have you to be angry with me?
5612Sir, said the barber, what do you mean by that?
5612Sir, says he, why would your majesty take away my life?
5612Some days after, not knowing who I was, he asked me if I knew any trade?
5612Son, said he, I desire you to tell me what lady that was who lay with you last night, as I have been told?
5612Son, said he, what are you going to do?
5612Tell me rather by what miracle you became intrusted with the rarest treasure that ever was in the world?
5612Tell me, I conjure you, added he, what cruel lady this is, who forces people to love her, without giving them time to advise?
5612Tell me, is it just to impute an unhappy accident to people who no ways contributed towards it?
5612Tell me, said the princess, what is become of the young man that has lain with me to- night, and whom I love with all my soul?
5612Tell me, then, wandering spirit, whence thou comest, what thou hast seen, and what mischief thou hast done this night?
5612That is very strange, says the fisherman, are you resolved to reward good for evil?
5612The brokers and criers having thus promised to put me in a way of losing nothing by my goods, I asked them what course they would have me take?
5612The caliph, moved with compassion, says to the fisherman, Hast thou the courage to go back and cast thy nets once more?
5612The caliph, perceiving that he did not meddle with me, grew angry: Did not I command thee, said he, to cut off the heads of ten highwaymen?
5612The caliph, who heard this, came up to him and the other calenders, and asked them what might be the meaning of all this?
5612The captain, in his turn, demanded of the prince whether he was not a debtor to the king of Ebene?
5612The case being so, what a fool am I to kill myself with grief?
5612The cock, standing up on tip- toe, answers the dog fiercely, And why should I not do it to- day as well as other days?
5612The day after the death of the youngest, not finding her at table, I asked her eldest sister what was become of her?
5612The eunuch, perceiving that he followed them, was extremely surprised: You impertinent fellow, said he, with an angry tone, what do you want?
5612The eunuch, redoubling his pace, with much difficulty got up with him, when, taking him by the arm, he cried, Whither away so fast, sir?
5612The farmer''s daughter came: My good maid, says I, can you restore my son to his former shape?
5612The genie( continued she) having promised to speak the truth, the fisherman says to him, I would know if you were actually in this vessel?
5612The grandmother, frowning on the eunuch, said, How now, Schaban?
5612The judge did not give ear to all that was said in my behalf, but asked the cayalier if he suspected anybody else besides me?
5612The lady hearing of my arrival, and that I was not well, came to me in all haste: My dear soul, said she, what is the matter with you?
5612The lady, on the contrary, being transported at the sight, cried out, How, my lord, did you fear there was nothing ready?
5612The lady, seeing a handsome young man just come out of the bath, asked him, with a smiling air, whither he was going?
5612The lady, who enjoyed his confusion, said, Once more, I pray you, my lord, come to bed again; why do you stand?
5612The master of the house being surprised, stopped him: Where are you going?
5612The neighbourhood came, and asked what ailed him, and what relief he wanted that they could give?
5612The pastry- cook, seeing them all gone, asked him what he was, and who brought him hither?
5612The people who gathered pepper came to meet me, and, as soon as they saw me, asked me in Arabic, who I was, and whence I came?
5612The queen answered, have you two names then?
5612The sultan asked the fisherman, how far the pond might be from the palace?
5612The sultan caused them to bring in a chess- board, and asked me, by a sign, if I understood that game, and would play with him?
5612The sultan smiled at the barber''s liberty, and replied, Why do you ask?
5612The sultan, perceiving his surprise, said to him in a mild way, Do you know, son, for what reason I have sent for you hither?
5612The young man cast his eyes upon me, and said, My good lady, pray let me know who you are, and what has brought you to this desolate city?
5612Then addressing himself to the audience, Did you ever hear, said he, such a surprising story as has happened on account of my little crooked buffoon?
5612Then she will prostrate herself at my feet, kiss them, and say to me, Sir, is it possible that you can suspect my daughter''s chastity?
5612Then tell me sincerely, said he, how you came by this wound?
5612Then the caliph asked the criminals which of them it was that so cruelly murdered the lady, and threw her into the Tigris?
5612Therefore I answered the genie, How should I know her, that never saw her till now?
5612This action frightened the fisherman: Genie, says he, what is the meaning of that; will not you keep the oath you made, just now?
5612This is my history, O prince of genies, do not you think it very extraordinary?
5612This is the history of myself and this bitch, is it not one of the most wonderful and surprising that can be?
5612This, sir, is the story I had to tell you: does not your majesty find it yet more surprising than that of the crooked buffoon?
5612Those blacks, replied they, eat men; but by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?
5612To this end, he sent immediately for the fisherman, and says to him, Friend, can not you bring me four more such fishes?
5612To whom, think you, belongs this slave?
5612Unhappy wretch, said the sultan, art thou worthy that I should answer thy discourse?
5612Upon this the sultan said again to his daughter, How do you know that this prince has been transformed by enchantment into an ape?
5612Upon this, the beautiful lady says to her, Pray sister, come in, what do you stay for?
5612Upon which, turning to me, And thou, said he, dost thou hot know her?
5612Very well, replies the fisherman, shall I speak to you with more civility, and call you the owl of good luck?
5612Very well, says the enchantress, to pacify you, I am ready to do what you will command me; would you that I restore him as he was?
5612Was it not enough to be afflicted for the death of so dear a father?
5612Was it not you, replied they, who made the cream- tart you sold to the eunuch?
5612Was it not you, said they, who sold this eunuch the cream- tart?
5612Was it you that took the gentleman''s purse from him?
5612Well then, my abused daughter, said he, can you give me no further light into this matter?
5612Well, cried Schemseddin, turning to Schaban, after all this, will you continue to deny that you entered the pastry- cook''s house, and ate there?
5612Well, how do you relish it?
5612Well, replies the king, why is that book so precious as you talk of?
5612Well, said the king, in what condition did you find my son?
5612Were you born blind of the right eye?
5612What a prodigious number of cities, villages, canals, and a thousand other agreeable objects?
5612What answer, however, could the jeweller have made, in the deplorable condition he was placed?
5612What are you afraid of?
5612What beauty, or rather what prodigy of beauty, said she within herself, will this youth appear, when his so well formed eye- lids shall be open?
5612What can the matter be that he does not make use of his right hand?
5612What can this mean?
5612What could I say when I felt myself so cruelly tortured?
5612What crime can he have committed, to deserve this rigorous treatment?
5612What crime have I committed?
5612What do you mean, Sindbad?
5612What do you mean, sir, said some who stood near him, to expose thus your life, which promises so much, to certain death?
5612What enamel of all sorts of flowers?
5612What fable do you tell me?
5612What had that vizier done, says the Grecian king, to deserve punishment?
5612What has he done to obtain from thee a lot so agreeable, and what have I done to deserve one so miserable?
5612What has he done to you?
5612What hast thou got in these trunks?
5612What have I done to be subject to the severe law of not being able to enjoy the person whom I love?
5612What have I done?
5612What have you been doing, that you came no sooner?
5612What impudence is this?
5612What is the matter?
5612What is the meaning of this?
5612What misfortune befel the ass?
5612What news is that, replied the prince, which could give my father so great uneasiness?
5612What proportion is there between the punishment and the crime?
5612What said she to you?
5612What shall I do?
5612What time do you demand then, replies the genie?
5612What water was ever lighter or more delicious?
5612What will I do?
5612What will it be when you are obliged to part?
5612What will not the world say of such a bloody rage?
5612What will they say of us if we break them?
5612What will you do with me, then?
5612What would you say, if you had seen the fine prince whom I am just come from, and whom I love with a passion equal to his desert?
5612What, said the genie, he is the cause of thy being in the condition thou art justly in; and yet darest thou say thou dost not know him?
5612What, says the caliph, are you not of the family?
5612What, son, replied Fatima; have you then more reasons than those you have already advanced?
5612Whatever misfortune befals me, I can not forbear asking, why you bedaubed your faces with black?
5612When Bahader and prince Amgrad were in the court, Bahader demanded of the prince, how the lady came into his house, and why they broke open his door?
5612When he arrived, he heard the ass say to the ox, Comrade, tell me, I pray you, what you intend to do to- morrow, when the labourer brings you meat?
5612When he had ended his story, without hiding any part of it, he asked him which was the nearest way to his father''s territories?
5612When he had got the purse in his hand, he asked the horseman if it was his, and how much money was in it?
5612When he had read what the king of Serendib wrote to him, he asked me if that prince was really so rich and potent as he had said in his letter?
5612When he saw that the slave made no haste to obey his orders, Why do not you strike?
5612When the captain heard me speak thus, O heaven, says he, whom can we ever trust now- a- days?
5612When the officers brought him before the magistrate, he asked him where he had the goods which he carried home last night?
5612When they come to fasten you to the stall, why do not you make resistance?
5612When will the time come that I shall enjoy it without fear of being ever deprived of it?
5612Where are they who enjoy quietly the happiness which they hold of her, and whose day is always clear and serene?"
5612Where does he live?
5612Where have you been?
5612Where shall I find her, and how seek for her?
5612Whilst I looked upon her, I heard the voice of a man from under ground, who immediately appeared to me, and asked who I was?
5612Whilst she was thus bewailing herself, in comes the grand vizier, and asked her if the fishes were ready?
5612Whither art thou going?
5612Whither canst thou fly for refuge against the unjust prince who persecutes thee?
5612Whither could he go?
5612Whither do you go then, sir?
5612Who are you?
5612Who can assure me that I shall be more successful than you have been?
5612Who knows but fortune waits, upon my getting off this dangerous shelve, to compensate my shipwreck with usury?
5612Whom do you seek?
5612Whom do you wait for?
5612Why are you so cast down?
5612Why art thou not gone as well as the rest?
5612Why did she come to sleep only, inflame you with her beauty, and then leave you while you was in a slumber?
5612Why did you not ask money of me, and I would have lent it you?
5612Why did you not take care to wash your hands after eating of that cursed ragoo?
5612Why do you give any body the trouble to come and open the door when they speak to you?
5612Why do you sigh and cry so bitterly?
5612Why should you require of me, said she, with a profound sigh, what will but renew my grief?
5612Why, I sent for you, said the sultan, to let you know that I design to marry you: what do you think of it?
5612Why, how did you kill this man?
5612Why, madam, said I, wherein have I deserved your displeasure?
5612Why, said my brother, can not a man carry a knife without being a highwayman?
5612Why, said the lady in a surprise, why do you offer to use me so?
5612Why, then, do not you enter?
5612Why, then, hast thou cut off but nine?
5612Will not the arrival of the caliph put me in mind of your departure?
5612Will you absolutely take away the life of a poor innocent?
5612Will you be pleased to allow me the comfort of giving her this last testimony of my friendship?
5612Will you do me the honour to come to my home?
5612Will you not tell us whether she received the chastisement she deserved?
5612Will you stain your hands and your palace with your own blood?
5612Will you still refuse me the satisfaction I desire, and let me die without seeing myself revive in your posterity?
5612Woe be to thee, replies the genius, hast thou the boldness to venture to marry my mistress?
5612Would it not have been better, think you, and much more for his honour and quiet, that he had never run such a risk?
5612Would you have me to transport all the stones of those walls, so solidly built, beyond mount Caucasus, and out of the bounds of the habitable world?
5612Yes, replied he, I am the man, and who says any thing against it?
5612You believe him then to be dead, said I?
5612You do not tell me truth, said he; he is your father, not mine; but whose son am I?
5612You have lost your thumb, said the master of the house; how came that about?
5612You have travelled, said I, and what have you gained by it?
5612You impertinent prattler, said I, will you have done, and begin to shave me?
5612You jest, sir, said he; if your friends have invited you to a feast, why should you hinder me to accompany you?
5612You know by what medicine, or rather by what miracle, he cured me of my leprosy; if he had a design upon my life, why did he save me?
5612You were about, added he, to put to death an innocent person; for how can he be guilty of the death of a man who was dead before he saw him?
5612You, who know the cause of my tears, have you no pity for my unfortunate condition?
5612Your stubbornness, replies the vizier, will make me angry; why will you run headlong to your ruin?
5612Zobeide says to the two ladies, when she came to them, Sisters, do not you see that this honest man is like to sink under his burden?
5612], to write?
5612a man or a genie?
5612after the hideous sacrifice you have just consummated, can you see me with so much satisfaction?
5612and I am no less curious to know why another of you has her bosom full of scars?
5612and do you not know that you are at one of the gates of Damascus?
5612and it is you that come down the chimney to rob me, is it?
5612and whereabouts do you live?
5612and why you are alone?
5612and, in short, why do not you frighten them by bellowing aloud?
5612are you mad?
5612brother, are you then one of those who believe me mad?
5612can not I prevail with you then?
5612cried I, embracing him, how could I know you in this condition?
5612cried I, why do you not swallow up that monster in nature, or rather why do you not swallow up the gallant and his mistress?
5612cried he, what hast thou done?
5612cried she, is it you the king my father has designed me for a husband?
5612cried the prince, how would you have me answer so kind a letter?
5612cried they, laying hold of him; and dare you say that you are not a robber?
5612cried they, redoubling their blows, would you have us to believe you are an honest man, when your back convinces us to the contrary?
5612dare you say that the vizier Schemseddin is not my father?
5612did not Crook- back lie with you last night?
5612do not you know me?
5612does not thy barbarity surpass my vengeance?
5612dost thou deserve to live after the execrable crime which thou hast committed?
5612dost thou not now see what thy contest is come to?
5612has not the genie a very faithful mistress?
5612has our master so little sense?
5612have you abated that excessive love he had for me?
5612have you the insolence to talk thus to your father and sultan?
5612how came you to know her?
5612how could he find out the untracked way of the mountains, and the untrodden paths of the vallies?
5612how would you have us go?
5612how you came to be here?
5612in attempting the life of the object whom I adore, hast thou not robbed me of mine?
5612is it certain that I hear you, and that you speak to me?
5612is it possible that I am still alive after so many torments as I have suffered?
5612is that charming prince then, dead?
5612ladies, whither do you command me to go in the condition I am in?
5612must I then die in the prime of my youth?
5612my dear friend, said she, by your being here at this time of night, you must be my husband''s comrade?
5612my good lord, of what crime can I be guilty towards you, that you should take away my life?
5612my lord, replies the young man, how is it possible but I should grieve?
5612nor can you resolve us concerning the two black bitches and the lady that fainted away, and has been so basely abused?
5612or do you come on purpose to tell me you do not love me?
5612or is it want of confidence in me?
5612or rather did she not promise to see you, and restore those bitches to their natural shape?
5612replied Maimoune, what hurt canst thou do me?
5612replied he; can you retain these thoughts so long?
5612replied the Bermecide; and are you fasting till now?
5612replied the lady; is it not your house?
5612replied the merchant, can nothing prevail with you?
5612replied the princess, how is it possible I should execute what you would force me to do?
5612replied the princess, without giving the king leave to go on; do you ask me if any one lay with me last night?
5612replied the queen: what occasion did you give my daughter for using you so ill?
5612replies he, how do you think I should obtain that favour you wish me?
5612replies he, in a passion, have you lost your senses, daughter, that you make such a dangerous request to me?
5612replies the queen, why do you reproach me thus?
5612said Amgrad, with a fierce tone and a fiery look, is there such a slave as thou in all the world?
5612said Assad, we have but a short time to live, and what need have we to quench our thirst?
5612said Bedreddin, what do you mean to do with a stake?
5612said I to myself, this affront is insufferable; how shall I dare to return to Moussol?
5612said Schemseddin roughly?
5612said he in a passion, do you appear before me thus?
5612said he to my brother; ought you not to be ashamed to abuse thus a young spouse, who gave you no cause to complain?
5612said he to the eunuch, as soon as he had read it through, is this the fidelity thou owest thy master and thy king?
5612said he, canst thou suffer me to die an ignominious and painful death?
5612said he, do not you remember it?
5612said he, do you feign yourselves blind then, and under that pretext cheat people, by begging their charity, and abusing poor women?
5612said he, is it thus that a Christian dares to assassinate a Mussulman?
5612said he, rubbing his eyes, am I asleep or awake?
5612said he, speaking to me, and are not these your cords?
5612said he, unfortunate Bedreddin, what will become of thee?
5612said he, what induced me to come down without a light?
5612said he, where hadst thou this apple?
5612said he, you pitiful wretch, have you the impudence to abuse the trust I repose in you?
5612said he; what have I done?
5612said he; who is it that holds you?
5612said he; who placed you thus?
5612said my brother, what have you to say against me?
5612said my brother, why do you beat me?
5612said she, does my child thus despise the work of my hands?
5612said she, what is the meaning of this?
5612said the Bermecide; do not you find it very good?
5612said the despairing lover, if I knew which way to return, how durst I appear before my princess without her talisman?
5612said the king, has any one lain with you last night?
5612said the lady; and why do you take the cup with your left hand instead of your right?
5612said the prince, do you not awake at these testimonies of love given you by prince Camaralzaman?
5612said the vizier, was it not you who made the cream- tart you sent me?
5612said the vizier, what favour?
5612said they, what other thing could be capable of grieving us, but the necessity of parting from you?
5612says he to himself, I am scarce out of my palace, and but just under the walls of Samarcande, and dare they put such an outrage upon me?
5612says he, is the sultaness of the Indies capable of prostituting herself in so base a manner?
5612says she, addressing herself to the sultan, while she thought she spoke to the black, my soul, my life, will you always be silent?
5612says she, what will become of me?
5612says the first, how would you have him to perceive it?
5612says the genie, if you have a mind to know it, open the vessel; do you think that I can be in a humour to tell stories in so strait a prison?
5612says the merchant, how should I kill your son?
5612says the sultan, are not these admirable characters written by the hands of a man?
5612shouldst thou not rather have staid at home, and quietly enjoyed the fruits of thy labour?
5612thinks I within myself: What will become of me?
5612thou wretch, said he, is this your inspection into the actions of my people?
5612was the care of my grandchild committed to you to carry him to eat at pastry- shops like a beggar?
5612what are you disputing about?
5612what art thou waiting for?
5612what did you hear?
5612what is that news, madam, said I?
5612what is the meaning of this miracle?
5612what news dost thou bring?
5612what obligations, said she, are the prince of Persia and I under to that honest man you speak of?
5612what this castle is?
5612which way return?
5612who can assure you of that?
5612who ever heard of such a thing?
5612why do not you ease him of it?
5612why do not you strike them with your horns, and show that you are angry by striking your foot against the ground?
8657And he who sold thee and took thy price,asked the princess,"did he not tell thee that the Khalif had bought thee?"
8657And how camest thou to give her leave for this?
8657And how long,asked he,"has she sojourned in this country?"
8657And what is this tale?
8657And what is thy daughter''s name?
8657And who knows the hidden things save God, may He be glorified and exalted?
8657Art thou a spunger?
8657Can aught befall me worse than death?
8657Dost thou fear then that he will kill thee?
8657Hast thou a child or a husband?
8657Hast thou a necklace of jewels fit for me?
8657Have patience,quoth my censurer,"and thou shalt win them yet,"And I,"O thou that blamest me, whence should I patience get?"
8657How can the phantom visit a lover''s eyes,quoth they,"From which the grace of slumber is banned and banished sheer?"
8657I am a merchant in the Baghdad bazaar,replied I, and she,"Canst thou repeat any verses?"
8657I hear and obey, O my lady,rejoined I;"but where is my husband?"
8657Is she married?
8657Meseemeth thou hintest a wish for the lute to be brought?
8657O Nimeh,quoth the princess,"dost thou love thy slave Num?"
8657O fair- faced one,said Num,"what King''s palace is this?"
8657O my brother,rejoined the whelp,"what manner of words are these?"
8657O my lady,answered the Persian,"how should my son not weep, seeing that this is his slave- girl and he her lord Nimeh ben er Rebya of Cufa?
8657O so and so,said she,"what hath befallen thee?"
8657Since when has this been her wo nt,asked Nimeh,"and at what hour went she forth?"
8657What hast thou eaten to- day?
8657What hast thou then to say?
8657What is it, O Commander of the Faithful?
8657What is that?
8657What is that?
8657What is this?
8657What makes thee go doubled this fashion?
8657When didst thou leave the son of Adam?
8657When didst thou lose it?
8657Which of you is the complainant?
8657Whither away, O my mother?
8657Who has taken her?
8657Who knows the old woman?
8657Why dost thou not begin by healing thyself?
8657[ FN#84] When he read these verses, his eyes ran over with tears and the old woman said to him,What ails thee to weep, O my son?
8657''All I have is for sale,''answered Alaeddin; and the Frank said,''Wilt thou sell it me for fourscore thousand dinars?''
8657''And how is it with him whose seed is thin?''
8657''And how much cost thou expect of us?''
8657''And if he say yet,"Too much"?''
8657''And if he say,"Too much"?''
8657''And if he still say,"Too much"?''
8657''And what are they worth here?''
8657''And what befell Nimeh and Num?''
8657''And what did I promise thee?''
8657''And what is it thou hast seen this night, O liar, O accursed one?''
8657''And what is my father''s trade?''
8657''And what is that?''
8657''And what is thy clothing?''
8657''And what wilt thou do?''
8657''And what,''asked Kemerezzeman,''hath he told you of me, to trouble my father?
8657''And wherefore?''
8657''And whither wilt thou go?''
8657''And who and what is this youth?''
8657''And who is he?''
8657''And who was thy father''s murderer?''
8657''And why so?''
8657''And why,''continued the bird,''hast thou chosen this place rather than another?''
8657''And why?''
8657''And yet,"Too much"?''
8657''And yet,"Too much"?''
8657''And yet,"Too much"?''
8657''Art thou not an( orthodox) Muslim?''
8657''At what dost thou marvel, O my chief?''
8657''But where is my friend and she who was singing to him?''
8657''Did he give thee any charge?''
8657''Dost thou also presume to hoodwink me and wilt thou not tell me what is come of the young lady who lay with me last night and who took her away?''
8657''Dost thou not know me?''
8657''Doth she please thee?''
8657''Harkye, traitor,''said the Khalif,''whence hadst thou this lantern?''
8657''Hast thou then two names?''
8657''How bore they themselves,''asked the King,''and did they give thee any charge?''
8657''How can I do this,''said the pigeon,''I that am a bird and may not go beyond the palm- tree whereon is my food?
8657''How can we avail to do this thing,''answered they,''and whence shall we get the chrysolites and rubies and pearls whereof thou speakest?''
8657''How have I failed in good breeding before the Commander of the Faithful,''asked he,''and which of you is he?''
8657''How knowest thou that it is not he?''
8657''How many hands have I,''answered he,''that I should suffice for all this work?''
8657''How much cost thou hope to get of him?''
8657''How shall this youth descend,''replied he,''seeing that he hath not strength to rise?''
8657''How so, O Commander of the Faithful?''
8657''How so?''
8657''How so?''
8657''How so?''
8657''How so?''
8657''How so?''
8657''How so?''
8657''I have a thickener,''said Sheikh Mohammed;''but what wilt thou say to him who makes thy wife conceive by thee, after forty years''barrenness?
8657''I hear and obey,''answered he, and going in to his mother, said to her,''Who is my father?''
8657''Know then,''rejoined I,''that my case is strange and my affair marvellous: but do you know aught of me?''
8657''Knowest thou not, O Commander of the Faithful,''replied Jaafer,''that death( by hanging) causes blackness?''
8657''Look to it well,''said the King;''is this news true?''
8657''O Alaeddin,''said Ahmed,''what is this thou hast done?
8657''O Commander of the Faithful,''answered she,''how should women have knowledge of men?''
8657''O Commander of the Faithful,''said he,''shall I tell thee what I have seen with my eyes or what I have heard with my ears?''
8657''O Hassan Shouman,''said Ahmed,''What sayst thou of this?''
8657''O Queen,''asked Amjed,''what is thy slave''s name and what like is he?''
8657''O Vizier,''said the prince,''what did this pestilent slave say of me?''
8657''O dupe,''rejoined she,''would this stuff be sold under its value, except it were stolen?
8657''O my brother,''rejoined she,''thinkest thou it is madness ails me?''
8657''O my brother,''said Kemerezzeman,''what is this thou hast done and how will it profit us?''
8657''O my father,''answered she,''where is the young man that lay with me last night?''
8657''O my father,''asked Alaeddin,''why dost thou spread two tables, one for men and another for youths?''
8657''O my lady,''replied he,''I am a Muslim and thou art a Nazarene; so how can I marry thee?''
8657''O my lord, what young lady?''
8657''O my lord,''said Alaeddin,''and whence then came they?''
8657''O my lord,''said she,''is the marriage bond in thy hand or in theirs?''
8657''O my mother,''rejoined he,''where is a place of refuge against destiny?
8657''O my son,''rejoined she,''hast thou a mind for travel?''
8657''O my son,''replied the muleteer,''did I not forbid thee to go with him?
8657''O my son,''said the old man,''what sayst thou to a thousand dinars and a suit of clothes and a mule worth other two thousand?''
8657''O old man,''said Er Reshid,''doth the Khalif come down the river every night?''
8657''O wily deceiver,''answered the wolf,''how hopest thou to work my deliverance and thine own, that thou wouldst have me grant thee time?
8657''O wretched old man,''answered Kemerezzeman,''thinkest thou I saw her with my ears?
8657''O wretched old woman,''answered the princess,''where is my beloved, the handsome youth that lay last night in my bosom?
8657''That shall he not,''rejoined Kemerezzeman;''but how is thy master called in the land of the Persians?''
8657''That which is written on our foreheads,''said the peahen,''we must indeed fulfil, and when our appointed day draws near, who shall deliver us?
8657''To what end wilt thou give me this?''
8657''True, O my friend,''answered the mouse,''and I delight in thee and in thy neighbourhood; but what is the motive of thy speech?''
8657''What art thou?''
8657''What befell the sparrow?''
8657''What boy is this that sits beside thee,''asked the Deputy,''and thou a man of years and chief of the merchants?
8657''What countryman is he?''
8657''What do they say?''
8657''What has vexed thee?''
8657''What if he say,"This is too much"?''
8657''What is it thou hast to propose?''
8657''What is it?''
8657''What is the lady''s name?''
8657''What is the matter?''
8657''What is the story of the weaver?''
8657''What is thy condition?''
8657''What is thy food?''
8657''What is to do?''
8657''What matters it?
8657''What means this saying?''
8657''What possesses thee to kill my slave?''
8657''What proof hast thou of what thou sayest?''
8657''What then shall I do,''asked the pigeon,''that I may be freed from the bonds of the world and give myself up altogether to the service of my Lord?''
8657''What thickens seed?''
8657''What was it thou sawest?''
8657''What was that?''
8657''Whence knowest thou that, O Commander of the Faithful?''
8657''Where didst thou buy it?''
8657''Where is Dhoulkeraa, prince of Himyer?''
8657''Where is he?''
8657''Whither shall I go, O my father?''
8657''Whither shall I go?''
8657''Who can help me,''rejoined Ali,''and how wilt thou do with her, when she takes umbrage like a wilding of the desert?''
8657''Who is his father?''
8657''Who may go a- pleasuring on the Tigris?''
8657''Who told thee I was a leper?''
8657''Who told thee of this?''
8657''Who told thee of this?''
8657''Who told thee this?''
8657''Whose life?''
8657''Why dost thou thus?''
8657''Why not?''
8657''Why so?''
8657''Wilt thou sell it for a hundred thousand dinars?''
8657''Yes,''answered she; whereupon the lady turned to the jeweller and said to him,''How is it with thee?''
8657''[ FN#106]''What has happened?''
8657''[ FN#110]''Why should we give thee guard- money?''
8657''[ FN#71] Her heart inclined to him and she said,''Canst thou write?''
86572, FN#29}[ FN#117] Confessional?
8657A man saw her affrighted and said to her,"What ails thee, O serpent?"
8657After awhile, the Khalif said to Jaafer,''O Vizier, what is the cause of Alaeddin''s absence from the Divan?''
8657Alaeddin gave him five dinars and said to him,''O serjeant, by what code am I bound to marry at night and divorce next morning?''
8657Alaeddin knocked at the door, and his mother said,''Who is at the door, now that we have lost our beloved?''
8657Amjed looked at him with angry eyes and said,''Why hast thou tarried till now, O most pestilent of slaves?''
8657And how shall I hide the tears, that flow in streams adown The table of my cheek for his evanishment?
8657And she said,"How would it be, if thou heardest this song from himself?"
8657Art thou a god, that thou, indeed, by favouring whom thou wilt And slighting others, canst at once bring back to life and slay?
8657Art thou for wine?
8657Art thou mad to even thy beloved with mine?''
8657As I spoke, O my sister, the camel came up and saluted the lion- whelp, who returned his greeting and said to him,"What brings thee hither?"
8657As for me, I was in a trance, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself with the princess; so I said to her,"Why hast thou bought me hither?"
8657As for thee, thou art great in years and little of wit: hast thou not, twice before this, questioned me of the matter of marriage, and I refused thee?
8657At break of day, the prince awoke from sleep and turned right and left, but found not the young lady by him and said in himself,''What is this?
8657At this the King rejoiced exceedingly and spat in the Vizier''s face, saying,''O wicked old man, how canst thou pretend that my son is mad?
8657At this, she wept and said,''Who told thee this?''
8657At this, the young lion''s anger and vexation redoubled, and he said to the horse,"When didst thou leave the son of Adam?"
8657Behold, I have chosen to be near thee and desire to enjoy thy company; so who shall forbid thee from me?
8657Belike, it may come to thy father''s ears and who shall deliver us from his hand?''
8657But Jessamine answered,''O bitch, by what code is it lawful for a woman to marry two husbands, and how shall the dog take the lion''s place?''
8657But have ye no last wishes or injunctions that I may fulfil or message that I may carry?''
8657But he answered,''Harkye, sirrah, art thou master or servant?
8657But how did he wrong thee?''
8657But if thou art handsome, so am I; what then is this thou dost?
8657But tell me, which of the two is the handsomer?''
8657But thou art like a certain sick man, who went to another, suffering from the same disease, and said to him,"Shall I heal thee of thy disease?"
8657But thou, O my brother,''added he,''wilt thou lodge with me?''
8657But what is thy condition?"
8657But what vast army is this that covers the country?''
8657But why dost thou not bid him cast about to get the girl Jessamine for my son Hebezlem Bezazeh?''
8657But why, O my mother, did you put me in the underground chamber and leave me prisoner there?''
8657But, O my brother, hast thou seen the damsel or heard any news of her?''
8657But, O my lord, didst thou ever recover the lantern that was stolen from thee?''
8657By Allah, O my son, I know nothing of the affair, and I conjure thee, tell me if it be a delusion of sleep or a hallucination caused by food?
8657Can it be love hath wounded thee or art thou shot with shafts?
8657Did I not tell thee that, were I wo nt to sell this merchandise to other than thee for gold, I would sell it thee for silver?''
8657Didst thou not know this?"
8657Dost thou carry adulterous messages for thy lord''s wife?
8657Dost thou count me thy friend?
8657Dost thou dare to answer me thus before my captains and officers?
8657Dost thou not know that he who buys a ware, without examining it, erreth?
8657Dost thou not see his beauty and grace and symmetry?
8657Doth passion blaze up in thy heart like to mine?
8657Each of the others told a like tale, till it came to Alaeddin''s turn, when they said to him,''And thou, O my lord Alaeddin?''
8657Grant with the border of her sleeve she hide her brows and doff Her ornaments, how shall she do her scent away from her?
8657Hast seen a lover hating love at any time or tide?
8657Hast thou any device to bring us to our desire of yonder dinars?"
8657Hast thou any stories of beasts?"
8657Hast thou any stories of birds?"
8657Hast thou gone in to Cout el Culoub?''
8657Hast thou gone in to her?''
8657Hast thou more of the like edifying tales?"
8657Hast thou no fear of God, and He of exceeding great might?
8657Hast thou not heard the saying of God the Most High?
8657Hast thou not heard what the poet says?
8657Have they lessoned thee to flout me or has the wretched old man, my father, made thee swear not to speak to me to- night?''
8657Have ye any tidings of them?''
8657His comrades came up to him and set him on horseback again, saying,''What hath befallen thee?''
8657How can I hope to be secret and hide the love that I feel, Whenas the stress of my longing my passion for thee doth speak?
8657How can I trust in this world or hope to be secure from misfortune therein?
8657How canst thou let this strange slave in upon us?
8657How comes he lying in one bed with me?''
8657How darest thou stay her?"
8657How is it with Shemsennehar?''
8657How long This deadly distance and despite?
8657How long, I wonder, shall the hands of passion sport with me And love and dole and sleeplessness consume me, heart and brain?
8657How many murders hast thou done ere this?''
8657How shall I be consoled for thee, and thou a sapling slight?
8657How shall a heart be joyous, that''s all fulfilled of dole?
8657How shall he have pleasure in life or hold it goodly, He unto whose cheeks the dust must soon adhere?''
8657How shalt thou be burdened with inquietude and harm?''
8657How should she have come in to thee, when the door was locked and I asleep before it?
8657How then can this have been a dream and a delusion, seeing that the ring is a reality?
8657How would it be if thou sawest my beloved?
8657I agreed to this and we both presented ourselves before the Cadi, who said,"What brings you hither and what is your case?"
8657I answer,"And where is my heart?
8657I cry, whilst my night for care grows long and longer aye,"O light of the morning, say, is there no returning for thee?"
8657I found him seated on a chair, wroth with me, and he said to me,"O Isaac, art thou a traitor to thine allegiance?"
8657I prayed a two- bow prayer, after which I turned to her, sighing, and said,''What dost thou want?''
8657I wonder what is come of him?''
8657If my foeman in love be my judge, to whom shall I make my complaint?
8657If ye weep thus, what while ye are yet together, how will it be when ye are parted?
8657Is every fair one so disdainful?
8657Is he a slave or akin to thy wife?
8657Is it no wonder that thou art a moon for ever full And that thy lovers''tis, not thou, that wane and waste away?
8657Is it not time, O thou whose heart is as the rock, that thou My long estrangement and my dole shouldst pity and allay?
8657Is not the house thine?''
8657Is there any one that seeketh?''
8657Is this bag a bottomless sea or the Day of Resurrection, that shall gather together the just and unjust?"
8657Kemerezzeman told them that he was sick, and they said,''Where is the young man that is minded to go with us to the Ebony Islands?''
8657Knowest thou not that modesty is a point of the Faith?''
8657Knowest thou not that there is a Helper for the oppressed?
8657Knowest thou not that this thou hast done were disgraceful in the meanest of my subjects?''
8657Knowest thou who I am?"
8657Meanwhile Ajlan said to his men,''O Arabs, was this caravan bound from Egypt for Baghdad or from Baghdad for Egypt?''
8657Meanwhile, the old woman went to Num''s bed- chamber and said to her,"Has thy lord come to thee?"
8657Meanwhile, they carried Alaeddin to the Divan and brought him, together with the stolen goods, before the Khalif, who said,''Where did ye find them?''
8657Muawiyeh wondered greatly ad Kaab''s story and said to him,"Hath any mortal ever made his way to the city?"
8657Next morning, the soldiers came for him and he mounted and rode away; whereupon she came in to me and said,"Sawst thou yonder man?"
8657No harm shall befall thee: how can the son of Adam come at us and we in this island midmost the sea?
8657Now her father''s house faced that of Alaeddin, and he, hearing her cry out, came in and said,''What is the matter, O my lord Alaeddin?''
8657Now the Khalif set thee in high place about him and styled thee"Trusty"and"Faithful;"how then couldst thou deal thus with him and steal his goods?''
8657O witless wolf, knowest thou not the proverb,"He who taketh no thought to results, Fate is no friend to him, nor shall he be safe from perils?"''
8657O ye full moons, whose place of sojourn is my heart, Amongst the human race whom can I choose but you?
8657One[FN#141] came to us with God''s command And summoned us to the right way"Is there no''scaping from this thing?"
8657Presently she came in to him, rejoicing, and he said to her,''What news, O damsel?''
8657Presently, Mehmoud bent towards Alaeddin, to kiss him, but the youth received the kiss on his hand and said to him,''What wilt thou do?''
8657Presently, a man entered and saluting us, prayed a two- bow prayer, after which he turned to us and said,''O folk, are ye strangers?''
8657Presently, he saw the Khalif and Jaafer whispering together and said to them,''What is the matter, gentlemen?''
8657Presently, the old woman came in and said to him,''Why hast thou not done thy service?''
8657Quaere, the name of a town in Egypt?
8657Quo the Khalif,''What is this thou sayest?''
8657Quoth Ahmed,''What counsellest thou?''
8657Quoth Aslan,''And how was that?''
8657Quoth Ed Denef,''What ails thee, O Aslan?''
8657Quoth I( and indeed I thought not that he knew me),"How knowest thou that I excel in song?"
8657Quoth I,"My name is''duck,''and I am of the bird- kind; but thou, why tarriest thou in this place till now?"
8657Quoth I,"What ails the folk to run away?"
8657Quoth I,''For myself, thou canst find me where thou wilt; but thou, who can come at thee where thou art?''
8657Quoth he,''Dost thou ask my present or my former name?''
8657Quoth he,''Know ye not that all the kings of the word are under my hand and that none that is therein dare gainsay my commandment?''
8657Quoth he,''What possessed thee to do this?''
8657Quoth he,''What say you?
8657Quoth he,''Why dost thou send me forth of the church?''
8657Quoth she,''Thou art the son of a Provost of the merchants yet did thy hand lack of a para; how then should it be with poor dervishes?''
8657Quoth she,''What is the lading of thy ship and whom hast thou with thee?''
8657Quoth she,''Where didst thou leave the owner of these olives?''
8657Quoth she,''Wherefore come- ye?''
8657Quoth she,''Who saith so?''
8657Quoth the Cadi to me,"And what sayst thou, O Ali?"
8657Quoth the Khalif to Ahmed,''Dost thou repent of thy sins?''
8657Quoth the Khalif,''Where is Alaeddin Abou esh Shamat?''
8657Quoth the Vizier,''Dost thou ask of the young lady with the fair face and perfect shape?''
8657Quoth the boatman,''Did I not tell you that the Khalif passed every night?
8657Said I,''Have ye a mind for food?''
8657Seest not that loved and loathed at once In every way of life unite?
8657She alighted at my shop and seating herself by me, said to me,"Art thou Mohammed the jeweller?"
8657She guessed by these words that her son was dead and wept sore, then she said to me,''I conjure thee by Allah, tell me, is my son dead?''
8657She knew by my case that I had a mind to enjoy her; so she said to me,"O my lord, dost thou think to foregather with me unlawfully?
8657Shemseddin looked on his face and seeing it like a shining full moon, with moles on both cheeks, said to his wife,''What hast thou named him?''
8657So Aslan interceded for him with the Khalif, who said,''What hath God done with this lad''s mother?''
8657So I brought him in and said to him,''What hast thou to say to me?''
8657So I rose and followed her into the presence of the princess, who said to me,"O light of the eye, art thou the lady Dunya''s beloved?"
8657So I turned to my neighbour and said to him,''Thou art my brother and my neighbour and wilt cover my nakedness; what dost thou counsel me to do?''
8657So I went up to him and he said to me,"What is thy name and thy kind?"
8657So Kemerezzeman entered the garden, amazed, and said to the keeper,''Who and what then are the people of this city?''
8657So Khatoun told her the whole story, and she said,''What wouldst thou say of him who should find means to save thy son?''
8657So he beckoned to the broker and said to him,"What is the price of this woman and her child?"
8657So he carried him, still chained, to the Divan and kissed the earth before the Khalif, who said to him,''O Amir Khalid, what seekest thou?''
8657So he said to her,''O King, I can not find that thou hast any manly gear, even as other men; what then moved thee to do thus?''
8657So he said to him,''O Alaeddin, whence cometh this trouble in which I see thee?
8657So he said,''What is the matter, O Amir Khalid?''
8657So he saluted him and Maan said to him,''O brother of the Arabs, what brings thee?''
8657So he sat down on one of the benches and the lady on the other; and she said to him,''O my lord, wherefore waitest thou?''
8657So he set down the cup and rose, whereupon quoth the lady,''Whither away?''
8657So he took her hand, and she alighted and said to him,"Art thou the Persian physician from Irak?"
8657So he walked on and she followed him from street to street, till she was tired and said to him,''O my lord, where is thy house?''
8657So he went down and bringing them up, said to them,''Have you brought me the ten thousand dinars?''
8657So he went down and finding four dervishes standing without, said to them,''What do you want?''
8657So he went to her forthright and said to her,''O my daughter, what ails thee?''
8657So he went with them to the Cadi, who, as soon as he saw Alaeddin, was moved to love of him and said to the old man,''What is your will?''
8657So he wrote the following verses: Harkye, O thou that judgest, what can a mortal do, When fate, in all conditions, doth him to death ensue?
8657So leave arguing and hear what the poet says: Seest not the fruits of the market, how of two kinds they be?
8657So one of the attendants said to him,''O dog of the Arabs, what ails thee that thou salutest not the Commander of the Faithful?''
8657So she came to him, and he said to her,''Whose son is this?''
8657So she rose and made rare music; and the Khalif said to Alaeddin,''What sayst thou of this damsel''s voice?''
8657So she said to her husband,''Why didst thou not buy him the girl?''
8657So she took him and carried him forth of the palace to the church, where he said to her,''What service must I do?''
8657So she turned to Alaeddin and said to him,''Wilt thou serve in the church, or shall I let the King kill thee?''
8657So she went away and after awhile in came Hassan, to whom said Mamoun,"Hath thou a daughter?"
8657So she went away and presently returned with a bag of money, which she handed to me, saying,''O my lord, where shall we meet?''
8657So the Khalif went in to Cout el Culoub, who rose and kissed the ground before him, and said to her,''Hath Alaeddin gone in to thee?''
8657So they said to him,''Whose goods are these?''
8657So what misery can surpass this, and what calamities can be greater than these?"
8657So when the old woman came in to the Lady Khatoun, she found her bound with the fillets of mourning and said to her,''Wherefore dost thou mourn?''
8657So where is she now?''
8657So wilt thou go with me to him and get his reply?''
8657That by the annoy of hoary hairs Embittered is long life''s delight, And that the bristling thorns beset The branch with pleasant fruits bedight?
8657The Amir''s son was vexed at this and said to the broker,''Who is it that bids against me for the slave- girl?''
8657The Vizier wondered at his words and said to him,''Didst thou see this damsel with thine eyes and on wake, or in sleep?''
8657The crow at once flew up to the top of the tree; but the cat abode confounded and said to the crow,''O my friend, hast thou no device to save me?
8657The cup went round till it came to Er Reshid, who refused it, and the mock Khalif said to Jaafer,''What ails thy friend that he drinks not?''
8657The doorkeeper opened and said to her,"What dost thou want?"
8657The girl stands even now at the door: shall she have leave to enter?''
8657The horseman said to us,''Whence come ye?''
8657The male pigeon saw him praying and worshipping and inclined to him for his much devoutness and said to him,''How long hast thou been thus?''
8657The merchant returned his salute, and the other, seeing him vexed, said to him,''O my lord, what hath crossed thee?''
8657The old man replied,''Did I not warn thee, many a time, when the oath of divorce was always in thy mouth, as it were thy Koran?''
8657The old man smiled in his face and said,''O my son, meseems thou art a stranger?''
8657The railers say,"Who''s this for love of whom thou art distressed?"
8657The serving- women said to her,''What wilt thou name him?''
8657The shepherd returned his greeting and embraced him, weeping and saying,''What brings thee hither, where no man hath ever come in to me?''
8657The wishes of my heart do bring thee near to me For''gainst the speed of thought what is the levin''s ray?
8657Then he brought forward Ahmed Kemakim, shuffling in his fetters, and the Khalif said to him,''O Kemakim, art thou yet alive?''
8657Then he called Aslan and said to him,''What is thy mother''s name?''
8657Then he looked at Nimeh( who was still disguised as a woman) and said to the princess,"O my sister, what damsel is this by Num''s side?"
8657Then he prostrated himself in prayer a long while, after which he raised his head and said to me,"O uncle, knowest thou why I prostrated myself?"
8657Then he said to his son,''Art thou indeed resolved to travel and wilt thou not turn back from it?''
8657Then he said to the young man,"O Nimeh, who told thee where she was and taught thee how to get at her?"
8657Then he took the lute and sang an air, after which she said to me,"And is thy cousin also a merchant?"
8657Then he turned and seeing Alaeddin, as he were a piece of the moon, said to him,''Who art thou, O my son?''
8657Then he turned to Kemerezzeman and said,''O king''s son, art thou minded to marry my daughter and become my son- in- law?''
8657Then he turned to the prince and said to him,''O my son, what is to- day called?''
8657Then he was silent awhile, and presently said to the jeweller,''Knowest thou what the girl whispered to me?''
8657Then he went in to his mother and said to her,''O my mother, what is my father''s trade?''
8657Then he went in to his mother, whom he found sitting with her cheek on her hand, and said to her,"O my mother, where is Num?"
8657Then he went to the market and accosting a druggist, said to him,''Hast thou wherewithal to thicken the seed?''
8657Then he will say,"What dost thou want?"
8657Then said he to Ahmed ibn Ali Khalid,[FN#134]"And what sayst thou, O Ahmed?"
8657Then said he to the youth,"What is thy name?"
8657Then said he,"O Num, is this thy lord?"
8657Then said he,''When the boy grows up and says to thee,"Who is my father?"
8657Then said his mother to her,''O harlot, how canst thou make me thus to sorrow for my son?
8657Then said she to Alaeddin,''Art thou steadfast in battle?''
8657Then said she to her husband,"O my cousin, what wilt thou call her?"
8657Then said she to her slave- girl,''Is this the man of whom thou spakest to me?''
8657Then said she to the physician,"O brother of the Persians, is this thy slave or thy son?"
8657Then said she to the woman,"What is thy name?"
8657Then said she,"Is thy bashfulness gone?"
8657Then said she,"Knowest thou who made the air and words of this song?"
8657Then said the Cadi to me,"And thou, what sayst thou?"
8657Then said the Khalif to the Amir,''Why have thou brought him hither?''
8657Then said the Khalif,''O Alaeddin, why hast thou absented thyself from the Divan?''
8657Then said the King to him,''And thou, what countryman art thou?''
8657Then said the King,''From what country comest thou?''
8657Then said the lion to the ass,"Whither goest thou?"
8657Then said the princess to Alaeddin,''Wilt thou go to Cairo or to Alexandria?''
8657Then said the wolf,''O fox of little ruth, why didst thou exult over me, thou that wast my companion and under my dominion?
8657Then said the( chief) chamberlain to him,''O vilest of the Arabs, what art thou to bandy words with the Commander of the Faithful?''
8657Then said they to me,''Dost thou know us?''
8657Then she came up to me and said,"Methinks thou art the man in question?"
8657Then she looked at Asaad and taking him for a slave, said to him,''What is thy name?''
8657Then she said to Nimeh,"Art thou indeed her lord?"
8657Then she said to the damsel,"O Num, dost thou love thy lord Nimeh?"
8657Then she turned to go, and I said to her,''What is to be done?''
8657Then she went up with him to the door, and the chamberlain on guard hailed her, saying,"What damsel is that?"
8657Then the Khalif bade bring the smiter of the ball before him and said to him,''Who moved thee to do this thing and art thou friend or foe?''
8657Then the King said to Kemerezzeman,''O my son, what is this thou sayest to the eunuch and the Vizier of a fair damsel that lay with thee last night?
8657Then the Sultan sent for Behram and bade strike off his head; but he said,''O most mighty King, art thou indeed resolved to put me to death?''
8657Then the princess turned to him and said,''O my lord Alaeddin, wilt thou accept of me to wife?''
8657Then they all sallied forth with us and I went up to the two lovers and saluting them, said to them,''What became of the damsel and the two maids?''
8657Then they said to Ali ben Bekkar,''And who art thou and what is thy condition?''
8657Then they sprinkled salt[FN#87] and the merchant, going in to his wife, gave her joy of her safe delivery and said,''Where is the gift of God?''
8657Then they turned to Ali ben Bekkar and said to him,''And thou, who and whence art thou?
8657Then they went in to Zubeideh, after the goods had been brought in, and she said to her father,''O my father, whose goods are these?''
8657Then they went to the court and the Cadi said to Alaeddin,''Why dost thou not divorce the woman and take what falls to thee by the contract?''
8657Thou that for loving censures the votaries of love, Canst thou assain a heart diseased or heal a cankered brain?
8657To whom of injustice complain, to whom for redress shall I sue?
8657What ails thee to stand thus?''
8657What ails thee?''
8657What damsel is this of whom thou speakest?''
8657What doth thou counsel me to do now?''
8657What good was there in imprisoning him?''
8657What has this poor scavenger done that he should be bound with ropes?"
8657What hath befallen him?''
8657What is its price?"
8657What is this great army?
8657What is this present month called in Arabic?''
8657What is thy case?"
8657What is thy kind and what brings thee hither?"
8657What sayest thou, O Commander of the Faithful, of this King''s conduct?"
8657What sayst thou?"
8657What sayst thou?''
8657What wantest thou of the market?''
8657What young lady is this of whom thou talkest?
8657What, then, maketh thee seek that thou mayst not come at and desire what may not be, seeing that thou art of the beast and I of the bird kind?
8657When Ali ben Bekkar had read this letter, he said,''With what hand shall I write and with what tongue shall I make moan and lament?
8657When Budour heard this, she bowed her head and her forehead sweated for shame, and she said to herself,''How shall I do, and I a woman?
8657When Budour heard this, she sat down again and said,''O my beloved, what is this thou sayest?''
8657When Kemerezzeman saw them on this wise, he said to them,''What ails you?''
8657When Maimouneh saw this, she was glad and said,''Saw ye how my beloved Kemerezzeman forbore this young lady?
8657When he heard this, he said to her,''Wilt thou come to my lodging or shall I go with thee to thine?''
8657When he saw Maimouneh, he kissed the earth before her and standing with his hands clasped behind him, said,''What is thy will, O king''s daughter?''
8657When his mother saw him thus, she said to him,''What ails thee to weep, O my son?''
8657When his wife saw it, she said,''What is this?''
8657When his wife saw the slave, she said to her husband( who was the son of her father''s brother),"O my cousin, what is this damsel?"
8657When shall we meet again?
8657When she came, he said to her,"What moved thee to deal thus with thy lord?"
8657When she heard talk of Asafiri olives, her heart yearned for them and she said to the captain,''How much olives hast thou?''
8657When she heard this, she smiled and said to Aboulhusn,''What is the name of this young man?''
8657When she stood before the Khalif, he said to her,''Dost thou know who this is?''
8657When the broker returned, after having delivered the girl and received his brokerage, Hebezlem called him and said to him,''Where is the girl?''
8657When the prince heard this, he left beating him and said,''Why couldst thou not tell me without blows and humiliation?
8657When the shepherd saw the woman seated before him, his flesh shuddered with horror of her and he said to her,''O woman, what brings thee hither?
8657When the slave saw him, he alighted and kissed his hands: and Alaeddin said,''What dost thou want?''
8657When the year came to an end, the King called his son to him and said,''O my son, wilt thou not hearken to me?''
8657When they heard it, they said,''And is this young man Ali ben Bekkar and this damsel Shemsennehar?''
8657When they revived, they missed Aboulhusn, who had hidden himself behind a couch, and the young lady said,''Where is Aboulhusn?''
8657Where is my husband?
8657Where is she?"
8657Where then is he that seeketh?"
8657Where then is the seeker?''
8657Whilst yet there is left me a share in the world, Shall I see him, I wonder, or ever I''m sped?
8657Whither can he have gone?
8657Who is it doth good deeds alone And who hath never wrought unright?
8657Who killed this young lady?''
8657Who was it came hither and took away the young lady from beside me, whilst I slept?''
8657Why then dost thou laugh in mockery of thyself?''
8657Will you come home with me?''
8657Wilt have me, O my censor, be solaced for my loves?
8657Wilt thou be my Vizier?''
8657With this the young man turned towards Jaafer and said to him,''What ails thee and thy friend to be whispering together?
8657Would''st have me be a slave, the bondsman of a slave, One cloistered and confined behind a wall alway?
8657Ye spoke us a word aforetime; as ye spoke to us, will ye not do?
8657[ FN#25] Wilt thou hide the truth?
8657[ FN#60] What ails the nights?
8657[ FN#91] Presently, in came the slaves with his father''s mule, and he said to them,''Whence comes this mule?''
8657answered I; and she said,"Hath thou made our house thine abiding- place?"
8657asked Jaafer, and the Khalif answered,''Sawst thou not the marks of whips on his sides?''
8657said the Khalif,''and who could come by its like to sell it to thee?''
8657such a talent?"
8657why art thou so self- satisfied?''
8655Am I mad,answered the groom,"that I should go with thee without the Afrit''s leave?
8655And because it lacked pepper,said Bedreddin,"wilt thou do all this to me?
8655And did not thy mistress escape?
8655And how came it to be cut off?
8655And how fared it with thee in the house?
8655And is all this in the world?
8655And what befell thee after this?
8655And what happened to them?
8655And what is in this book?
8655And what was that?
8655And why wilt thou use me thus? 8655 Art thou blind?"
8655Art thou he who made the mess of pomegranate- seed?
8655Can this be true?
8655Did not my younger daughter escape?
8655Dost thou not know,answered I,"that I am bound by an oath?"
8655How call''st thou this thy dress?
8655How much longer must I wait?
8655How should the groom have access to thee,asked Bedreddin,"and how should he share with me in thee?"
8655How was that? 8655 I am a man,"answered I; and she said,"And who brought thee to this place, where I have dwelt five- and- twenty years without seeing man?"
8655I will well, O my lady,rejoined my brother;"but what made thee choose me of all men for this affair and what is it pleases thee in me?"
8655In what wilt thou expose me?
8655No,replied I; and he said,"What became of the mule I use to ride?
8655Not even thy master, my elder son?
8655O Beauty,said they,"dost thou know his like?"
8655O King,said Douban,"is this my reward from thee?
8655O accursed one,answered she,"how could there be a compact between me and the like of thee?"
8655O dog, son of a dog,exclaimed my master,"O most accursed of slaves, is this but a half lie?
8655O folk,said my brother,"what ails you?"
8655O loser,answered he,"why didst thou not answer me, when I asked who was at the door?"
8655O man,answered my brother,"why couldst thou not tell me this downstairs?"
8655O mighty King,answered the Vizier,"what harm has this physician done me that I should wish his death?
8655O my father,answered she,"what more can I tell thee?
8655O my lord,replied my brother,"how should one who has eaten of all these dishes be hungry?"
8655O my lord,said Bedreddin,"wilt thou not tell me my crime and what ails the pomegranate- seed?"
8655O my mother,asked he,"how shall I do to come at her?"
8655O my son,said Bedreddin,"hast thou then suffered the loss of friends, at thy tender age?"
8655O my son,said his grandmother,"dost thou find fault with my cookery?
8655Out on thee,rejoined Mesoudeh;"has our lord any knowledge of this or does she leave him any choice?
8655What crime could be greater than this?
8655What dost thou want?
8655What hurry is there?
8655What is it, O my lady?
8655What is it?
8655What is that?
8655What is that?
8655What is this thou sayest?
8655What is thy story?
8655What wouldst thou have me do?
8655Where is the man?
8655Wherefore?
8655Who brought thee hither?
8655Who has done this thing unto them?
8655Who is she?
8655Why dost thou look on one, who loves thee, as if she were a beggar? 8655 Wilt thou ruin all the folk on my account,"said I,"when this that befell me was decreed of God?"
8655Yes,replied Bedreddin;"didst thou find aught in it to call for the cutting off of my head?"
8655[ FN#12] But he said to me, weeping,Dost thou not recognize me?"
8655''And thou art my Vizier and I came hither with thee; yet thou knewest me not; so how should Gaffer Ibrahim know me, and he drunk?
8655''And what ails his daughter?''
8655''And what ails our master, O dog?''
8655''And what did Umameh with Aatikeh?''
8655''And what is the remedy?''
8655''And what is there to hinder?''
8655''And why dost thou weep and laugh?''
8655''Art thou not ashamed?''
8655''Art thou not ashamed?''
8655''Art thou not ashamed?''
8655''Belike,''said Ibrahim,''thou wishest for wine?''
8655''Did I not tell thee,''replied the Marid,''that is why I kill thee?''
8655''Did he nought else with thee?''
8655''Didst thou not say that thou wast a King''s son?''
8655''Do I not use to take great store of costly stuffs of thee, at a greater profit than thou askest, and send thee the money?''
8655''Do n''t you know?''
8655''Does not what thou hast brought upon me suffice thee,''replied I,''but thou must pursue me with the like of this talk through the public streets?''
8655''For whom is the second bed?''
8655''Hast thou not heard it said......?''
8655''Have I not told thee that I am bidden abroad to- day?
8655''Have ye not heard what the poet says?
8655''How did I slay thy son?''
8655''How many days''journey hence?''
8655''How shall the dog sit in the lion''s place?
8655''How should I not weep,''answered he''being in such a plight?''
8655''How so?''
8655''How so?''
8655''How so?''
8655''How so?''
8655''How so?''
8655''I will well,''replied I;''how could I hope for such good fortune?''
8655''If,''said Noureddin,''that unlucky ass there be cursed, will any part of the curse fall on thee?''
8655''Is this my reward for setting thee free?''
8655''May God show no mercy to my father,''exclaimed I,''for knowing the like of thee?''
8655''Must I tell thee?''
8655''O Ali,''replied the Vizier,''dost thou think to fright me with this talk?
8655''O Commander of the Faithful,''replied the Vizier,''am I inspector of murdered folk, that I should know who killed her?''
8655''O Gaffer Ibrahim,''said the Khalif,''what state is this in which I see thee?''
8655''O Ilmeddin,''asked Noureddin,''what is the matter?''
8655''O King of the age,''rejoined he,''dost thou know how far it is from here to thy capital?''
8655''O King of the age,''replied the barber,''why are all these men and this dead hunchback before thee?''
8655''O fisher man,''said Noureddin,''wilt thou hear our story in prose or verse?''
8655''O madman,''answered she,''what made thee eat of ragout of cumin- seed, without washing thy hands?
8655''O my beloved and light of my eyes,''rejoined he,''how shall I do to get away, when they have surrounded the house?''
8655''O my beloved, O my little black,''said she,''what is the root?''
8655''O my father,''replied Noureddin,''how should I not deal fairly by her?''
8655''O my father,''said Noureddin,''who is like unto thee?
8655''O my lady,''answered she,''as I was sitting here, there came in a handsome young man, who said to me,"Art thou she whom my father bought for me?"
8655''O my lady,''replied he,''what ails him?''
8655''O my lord,''said Noureddin,''to whom does the garden belong?''
8655''Then what is become of Cout el Culoub?''
8655''Then,''said she,''why dost thou not give thine enemy money and so appease him?''
8655''Was any one else by thee?''
8655''Well, Kezib el Ban?''
8655''Were we not here at nightfall,''asked the first,''and did we not leave the gate open?''
8655''What ails thee, O Kafour?''
8655''What but that thou advisest me?''
8655''What has he done that I should beat him?''
8655''What hurry is there?''
8655''What is my crime?''
8655''What is that?''
8655''What is that?''
8655''What is that?''
8655''What is to be done?''
8655''What is to be done?''
8655''What is to be done?''
8655''What makes thee think me mad?''
8655''What news?''
8655''What shall I do?''
8655''What words are these, O my lord?''
8655''What words are these?''
8655''Where are the strange men?''
8655''Where is he?''
8655''Who are they,''asked the Afrit,''and what is their story?''
8655''Who art thou?''
8655''Who ever heard of a fisherman writing to kings?''
8655''Who is at the door?''
8655''Why dost thou laugh?''
8655''Why dost thou waste time in idle lamentation?''
8655''Why so?''
8655''Why wilt thou go away to- day?''
8655--''Why wilt thou open them?''
8655After awhile, the Vizier died, and the King said,''Whom shall we make Vizier in his stead?''
8655And Noureddin said to his father''Am I of so little account with thee?''
8655And another,"Thou art mad; how couldst thou lie yesternight in Cairo and awake this morning in Damascus?"
8655And behold, he went up to the door of the damsel''s chamber and entering, said to her,''Art thou she whom my father bought for me?''
8655And he said to the King,"Is this my reward from thee?
8655And his best friends fell to beating him and saying,"Dost thou give us man''s flesh to eat?"
8655And in came the old woman, to whom said he,"Dost thou know me, O pestilent old woman?"
8655And indeed she was confounded and her reason fled, when she saw him, and she said,"O my lord, how did you escape, thou and thy friends the merchants?"
8655And repeated the following verse: How long ere this rigour pass sway and thou relent?
8655And she repeated the following verses: What ails me that I waste the time in idle grief, Until I find no friend mishap for me to bear?
8655And she said to Agib,"O my son, where hast thou been?"
8655And she said to one of them,''Wast thou born blind of one eye?''
8655And she was restored to her right mind and veiled her face, saying,''What has happened and who brought me hither?''
8655And the Sultan said,"How comes it that we have never heard of him?"
8655And they answered,''What sayest thou to the peeled barleycorn?''
8655And they cursed me and reviled me, whilst I stood laughing and saying,"How can my master kill me, when he bought me with this fault?"
8655And they made signs to each other to pass first, till she said,"Why do I see you make signs to each other?
8655And turning to my brother,"O my guest,"said he,"sawst thou ever aught better than this frumenty?
8655And what ails thee to take the cup with thy left hand?''
8655And who hath provoked thee to turn from my pain?
8655And yet if one asked,''Who''s the happiest man alive?''
8655Are not the tears that I have shed enough to soften thee?
8655Are you secure against the shifts of time and evil chance, That you''ve no mercy on my love nor aught of pity deign?
8655Art thou not ashamed of thyself?''
8655Art thou not ashamed?''
8655As we sat talking, my sisters said to me,"O sister, what wilt thou do with this handsome young man?"
8655At last he said,''O my sisters, what is its name?''
8655At last they said,''O our brother, and what is its name?''
8655At the door he found his steward and said to him,''What is the matter?''
8655At the end of this time, the slave- girl came to him and said,"What hast thou done?"
8655At this Bedreddin wondered and mourned for himself, till the Vizier said to him,"Of what art thou thinking?"
8655At this I rejoiced greatly and said,"What favour wilt thou grant me?"
8655At this her colour changed and she said,"Is all this on my account?"
8655At this she gave a loud cry and said to me,''What makes thee weep?
8655At this sight, my eyes ran over with tears; but the Afrit unbound her and veiling her, said to her,"O wanton, is not this thy lover?"
8655At this the Khalif laughed, and Jaafer knew him and said,''Surely thou art our lord the Khalif?''
8655At this the King marvelled greatly and shook with delight and said,"O physician, will thy head indeed speak to me, after it is cut off?"
8655At this the King wondered and turning to me, said,"Is this true that she says of thee?"
8655At this the first lady was secretly jealous and said to me,''Is not this girl more charming than I?''
8655Aversion and distance eternal and rigour and disdain; How can youthful lover these hardships all sustain?
8655Belike something ails thy right hand?"
8655Belike, thou grudgest at thy pay?''
8655Bravo for him who says,''And he repeated the following verses: Shall I from Cairo wend and leave the sweets of its delight?
8655But love of thee has got hold upon my heart; so wilt thou accept of my daughter to thine handmaid and be her husband?
8655But my brother was silent and heard him repeat, in a loud voice,"Who is there?"
8655But she looked at him and said,''O my lord, art thou going away without bidding me adieu?
8655But she replied,''Didst thou show me any mercy or spare my beloved?''
8655But she signed to me with her eyebrows, as who should say,"What hurt have I done thee?
8655But she wept, and he said to her,"Why dost thou weep?"
8655But the two men said to the prefect,"Wilt thou listen to a robber, who beggars the folk and has the scars of beating on his back?"
8655But they refused and dragged him before the prefect, who said to him,"Whence hadst thou these stuffs and money?"
8655But we stopped him and the host seized him and adjured him, saying,"What is the reason of thy coming in and going out again at once?"
8655But what is thy history and how comest thou in this vessel?''
8655But what is to be done with him?"
8655But where can I be?
8655But, O my sister, shall I tell thee what I have seen this day?"
8655Can it be lawful, O my wish, that thou another bless With thine embraces, whilst I die, in spite of Love''s decree?
8655Can this sick man be he?''
8655Canst thou tell me the points of excellence in beauty?"
8655Could ye find none to whom to marry me but the mistress of an Afrit and the beloved of a buffalo?
8655Did I not adjure thee just now, and thou refusedst, saying,"I have not done such a thing these thirteen years"?''
8655Did I not deliver thee from the abysses of the sea and bring thee to land and release thee from the vase?''
8655Did I not say to thee,"Spare me, so God may spare thee; and do not kill me, lest God kill thee?"
8655Did we not swear that neither of us should molest the other?"
8655Didst thou not see the singers and tire- women laughing at him and how thy people displayed thee before me?"
8655Didst thou steal this purse?''
8655Does she not drug him every night in the cup of drink she gives him before he sleeps, in which she puts henbane?
8655Dost thou not know the saying: Love without money Is not worth a penny?''
8655Dost thou not see that for pleasure four several things combine, Instruments four, harp, hautboy and gittern and psaltery?
8655Dost thou not see that the huckster''s son knows his own father?
8655Dost thou think I mean to leave this gown on my body?''
8655Dost thou wish to be polled or let blood?
8655Douban wondered greatly at these words and said,"O King, wherefore wilt thou kill me and what offence have I committed?"
8655For whom indeed is life serene, for whom is Fortune fast?"
8655From whom then dost thou veil thy face?"
8655Ghanim also sat up beside her and she said to him,''What dost thou want?''
8655Has this gallows- bird aught left to buy girls withal?''
8655Hast thou a pair of scales wherein I may weigh nine hundred dinars?
8655Hast thou aught left to sell?''
8655Hast thou lost thy wits?"
8655Hast thou not heard the saying of the poet?
8655Have ruth on me, for thy disdain is heavy on my heart; Is it not time that thou relent at last, my king, to me?
8655Have ye any victual?''
8655Have you not read what is written on the door?
8655He did so, and it was asked him,"What is his fault?"
8655He kissed them and laying them on his head, said to the Vizier,"Who is it hath offended against thee?"
8655He laughed and said to her,"How long have I been absent from thee?"
8655He went up to the first door and knocked, whereupon a maid came out and said,''Who art thou?''
8655How comes it the chase doth the hunter enchain?
8655How comes it then that mire and coal at once in thee are found?
8655How couldst thou be in Bassora yesterday and in Cairo last night and yet awake in Damascus this morning?"
8655How didst thou find the bath?''
8655How if he had told a whole one?
8655How is''t I have no pitying friend to help me in my need?
8655How long dost thou expect I shall live to save thee?
8655How long must I endure estrangement and despite?
8655How shall I escape from these blacks?''
8655How shall I get the body out of my house?''
8655How shall I leave its fertile plains, whose earth unto the scent Is very perfume, for the land contains no thing that''s naught?
8655How then should I omit to give your praise its full desert And celebrate with heart and voice your goodness ever new?
8655I abode with him three days, at the end of which time he said to me,"Dost thou know any craft by which thou mayst earn thy living?"
8655I am not vexed with thee: why shouldst thou be vexed with me?
8655I ate and drank and laying down the purse, would have gone out; but she said to me,''Whither goest thou?''
8655I cry,"What''s knowledge, indeed, unattended by might?"
8655I looked for the apples and finding but two of them, said to my wife,"Where is the third apple?"
8655I rose and saluted him and said to him,"Wilt thou not eat somewhat with me?"
8655I rose and saluted him and said,"Wilt thou not eat a morsel with me?"
8655I saluted her and told her what had befallen me; and she said,"O my sister, who is safe from the vicissitudes of fortune?
8655I saw no more of him for a month, at the end of which time he came to me and said,"Where is the money?"
8655I was alarmed and trembled, not knowing what was the matter, and the girls said to her,''What ails thee, O sister?''
8655If I''m jealous for thee Of thyself how much more of myself?
8655If thine own bosom can not thy secrets hold, Why expect more reserve from another wight?
8655If thou deny this, where is he who first on earth held sway?
8655If, to interpret for us, we trust to a messenger, How can a message rightly a lover''s plaint convey?
8655Is all well with thee?"
8655Is an anemone''s cup Perfect, except in its midst an eyelet of black it wear?
8655Is it not enough for me to have killed a Muslim, without burdening my conscience with the death of a Christian also?
8655Is it not enough that thou hast brought him to beggary, thou and thy comrades?
8655Is it not enough that thou hast laid my shop in ruins and smashed my gear and imprisoned me and fed me but once a day?"
8655Is it not more marvellous than that of the hunchback?''
8655Is it not more wonderful than that of the hunchback?''
8655Is it not yet enough of the tears that I have spent?''
8655Is it thus thou requitest me?"
8655Is there never a merciful friend will help me of all mankind?
8655Is this a time for sport and diversion?
8655Is thy hand thus by the creation of God or has it been mutilated by accident?"
8655It was asked me,"What is the taste of love?"
8655Jaafer, concluding that it was Kerim the fisherman, was alarmed for him and said,''O Kerim, what brings thee hither?
8655Knowest thou not that we are brothers and both by God''s grace Viziers and equal in rank?
8655May God curse him who married me to her and him who was the cause of it?"
8655May I not light one of these lamps?''
8655May he come in, O lady fair, to gaze upon thy charms?
8655Must I then die of thirst, what while thy lips with nectar flow?
8655My every wish with him I loved is fled away: What can I do or say?
8655My time of life is past away and death draws nigh to me: Will no one earn the grace of God by standing me in stead?
8655Nor again, As long as life lasteth in me, will I say,"O marvel of beauty, how long this disdain?"''
8655Now the man had said to his wile,"How shall we do to turn him away from thee?"
8655O Muslims, O soldiers all, did you ever in your lives see a man die and come to life again?
8655O accursed one, wilt thou play fast and loose with us at thy pleasure, O stinkard, O bitch, O vilest of whites?"
8655O my daughter, dost thou know who took thy maidenhead?"
8655O thou who art as a chestnut, black without, but with a white heart,[FN#68] thou of whom the poet says..........."The eunuch laughed and said,"What?
8655O tomb, O tomb, thou art neither earth nor heaven unto me: How comes it then that sun and moon at once in thee are found?
8655O ye, one thought of whom clings round me like a cloak, Whose love it as a shirt about my body dight, O my beloved ones, how long will ye delay?
8655Or hast thou e''en forgotten her who for love of thee, In tears and sickness and passion, hath wasted many a day?
8655Or if longing assail us, where shall we take our way?
8655Presently I heard the Khalif say to my mistress,''Harkye, what is in those chests of thine?''
8655Presently Noureddin said,''O Gaffer Ibrahim, how stands my favour with thee?
8655Presently he came upon a damsel, weeping, and said to her,''Who art thou?''
8655Presently, she said to me,''Hast thou a wife?''
8655Presently, the Vizier came to the prison, attended by ten armed slaves, and the gaoler said to him,''What seekest thou, O our lord the Vizier?''
8655Presently, the watchman came up and finding a Christian kneeling on a Muslim and beating him, said to the former,''What is the matter?''
8655Quoth Bedreddin,"Is there time for me to go in and take somewhat to stand me in stead in my strangerhood?"
8655Quoth Bedreddin,"What wilt thou do with it?"
8655Quoth I,"O my lord, what is it?"
8655Quoth Jaafer( and indeed he trembled in every limb),''Who told thee that the pavilion was illuminated and the windows open?''
8655Quoth Kheizuran,''And is not the lady Cout el Culoub dead?''
8655Quoth King Younan( and indeed he was troubled and his colour changed),"Of whom dost thou speak?"
8655Quoth Noureddin,''O fisherman, doth this damsel please thee?''
8655Quoth Noureddin,''Whither bound, O captain?''
8655Quoth he,"And how was that?"
8655Quoth he,"What is it?"
8655Quoth he,"Wilt thou not confess after all this torture?"
8655Quoth he,''And what has your master done to me that I should kill him?
8655Quoth he,''Are you not then of the household?''
8655Quoth her father,"Must it be so?"
8655Quoth my brother,"What wilt thou with me now?"
8655Quoth she"Who is my husband, thou or he?"
8655Quoth she( and indeed her heart was moved to pity),"And who is this youth of whom thou speakest?"
8655Quoth she,"Did I not bid thee be sparing of speech?
8655Quoth she,"Wilt thou come with me and look on the beauty of a youth who sleeps in the burial- ground yonder?"
8655Quoth she,''Thou hast lost thy hand for love of me, and how can I requite thee?
8655Quoth she,''Why dost thou sit still?
8655Quoth she,''Why dost thou weep?''
8655Quoth the Afrit,"Is the world so small that thou canst find none to marry but my mistress?''''
8655Quoth the Barmecide,"Didst thou ever taste aught more delicious than the seasoning of these dishes?"
8655Quoth the Khalif,''Who art thou?''
8655Quoth the King( and indeed the Vizier''s words troubled him),"What is thy warning?"
8655Quoth the King,"What is the story of the crocodile?"
8655Quoth the Sultan,''Wilt thou abide in this thy city or come with me to mine?''
8655Quoth the Vizier to him,''Art thou content to sell this damsel to the Sultan for ten thousand dinars?''
8655Quoth the dog,''What, then, should our master do?''
8655Quoth the fisherman,''This vessel would not suffice for thy hand or thy foot: so how could it hold the whole of thee?''
8655Quoth the hunchback,"What ails thee?"
8655Quoth the master of the house,"Who is at the door?"
8655Quoth the old man,''O my son, whence art thou?''
8655Quoth the old woman,"What will a kiss profit thee?"
8655Quoth the other,"Is our lord then a fool, that, when he wakes in the night and finds her not by his side, he makes no enquiry after her?"
8655Quoth the prefect,''What made thee kill him?''
8655Said I to the girl,"Is it true what I hear about this calf?"
8655Said the Afrit,''Dost thou doubt that I was in it?''
8655Said the Khalif,''Wilt thou not tell us thy story and acquaint us with thy case?
8655Said the King,''Why dost thou ask?''
8655Say not to me, beloved one,"Thou''lt grow consoled for me;"When such affliction holds the heart, what is there can console?
8655Say unto him that taunteth us with fortune''s perfidy,''At whom but those whose heads are high doth Fate its arrows fling?''
8655Shall all that are thirsty drink of thy water- tanks And shall I thirst in thy courts, whilst thou art a rain- fraught cloud?
8655Shall the like of thee come to bed to the like of me, with unwashed hands?''
8655Shall wolves devour me, whilst thou art a lion proud?
8655She came up to the brazier and thrust the rod into the frying- pan saying''O fish, are you constant to your covenant?''
8655She pleased him and he said,''O Hassan, what is bidden for this damsel?''
8655She said to her father,"How comes it that I see thee troubled and oppressed with care and anxiety?
8655She saw that my colour was changed and said to me,''What ails thee and why do I see thee thus changed?''
8655She touched the wine- cup with her lips, and laughing roguishly,"How canst thou proffer me to drink of my own cheeks?"
8655So I sat down, and she said,''Has thy love for me brought thee to such a pass, that thou hast wasted thy substance and lost thy hand on my account?
8655So I went to the closet and bringing a fine melon I found there on a platter, said to him,"O my lord, hast thou no knife?"
8655So has the sun risen or no?
8655So he called Jaafer the Barmecide and said to him,''O dog of a Vizier, has the city of Baghdad been taken from me and thou hast not told me?''
8655So he rose and girt his middle and said,''What would you have me do?''
8655So he sold all that was in the house, till there was nothing left, when he turned to her and said,''What is to be done now?''
8655So he spared her and said to her,"How camest thou to consort with this black?"
8655So he told her what the children and the monitor had said and said to her,"Who is my father, O my mother?"
8655So he told him the whole story from beginning to end, and the Khalif said to him,''Whither dost thou now intend?''
8655So is it not enough for me to have killed one Muslim unwittingly, without burdening myself with the death of another wittingly?''
8655So she looked at him earnestly and knew him and said to him,''Surely thou art Ghanim ben Eyoub?''
8655So she resumed and opened the gate to them, and they said,''Have we thy leave to enter?''
8655So the eldest lady said to him,''What ails thee that thou dost not go away?
8655So they both flew down to the tomb and she showed him Bedreddin, saying,"Sawest thou ever the like of this young man?"
8655So we said to him,"God on thee, what has become of thy thumb?
8655So when afflictions press upon the noble mind, Where shall a man from Fate and Destiny take flight?
8655So when they brought me bound before him, he commanded my head to be smitten off; and I said,"For what crime wilt thou put me to death?"
8655Still he made no answer and presently heard the master come to the door and open it and say,"What dost thou want?"
8655The Khalif granted her prayer, and she said,''O Commander of the Faithful, if I bring him to thee, wilt thou bestow me on him?''
8655The Khalif looked at me and said to the headsman,''What ails thee thou thou struck off but nine heads?''
8655The Khalif looked at them and said,''Which of you killed the damsel?''
8655The Khalif marvelled at her story and said to the portress,''And thou, how camest thou by the weals on thy body?''
8655The Khalif turned to them and said,''How so?''
8655The King marvelled and said to him,''What makes thee weep, O youth?''
8655The King replied in a weak voice,''What hast thou done?
8655The King saw his attendants nodding and winking to one another about him and said to his Vizier,''O Vizier, what say my men?''
8655The King stood and wondered and said to his attendants,''Has any one of you ever seen this lake before?''
8655The Sultan rejoiced in his converse and said to him"What is the meaning of the popular saying,''Shureih is more cunning than the fox''?"
8655The ass shook his head and said,''Beware of doing that I''''Why?''
8655The cock began to crow and clap its wings and signed to us with his beak, as who should say,"Are there any grains left?"
8655The cook looked at Bedreddin and noting his beauty and grace, fell in love with him and said to him,"Whence comest thou, O youth?
8655The envied man bade him welcome and drawing near to him, said,''Shall I tell thee the object of thy visit?''
8655The eunuch turned and said to him,"What dost thou want?"
8655The noise drew the notice of the lady of the house, who said to them,''O guests, what is the matter and what are you talking about?''
8655The ogress came out after him and finding him terrified and trembling, said to him,''Why dost thou fear?''
8655The prefect said to him,"O villain, what made thee enter their house with murderous intent?"
8655The slaves did as she bade, and said,''O noble lady, is it thy will that we strike off their heads?''
8655Then Bedreddin turned to the eunuch and said,"O noble sir, why wilt thou not gladden my soul by entering my shop?
8655Then Cuteyt went into the prison, where he found Noureddin repeating the following verses: Who shall avail me against the woes that my life enwind?
8655Then I said to Bedreddin,''What is the price set upon this piece?''
8655Then Muin looked at the broker and said to him,''What ails thee to stand still?
8655Then came up one of the merchants and said to the broker,"How much have they bidden for this slave, with his fault?"
8655Then he called for a chess- board and said to me,"Wilt thou play with me?"
8655Then he called his slave- girl and said to her,''O Enis el Jelis, hast thou seen what has befallen me?''
8655Then he called out,"Where is the cellaress?"
8655Then he gave him a dress of honour and made much of him, saying,"Wilt thou indeed cure me without drugs or ointment?"
8655Then he gave him a second cuff and the host exclaimed,"What is this, O vile fellow?"
8655Then he lighted a candle and drew near and looked at me and said,"What is that wound on thy cheek, in the soft part?"
8655Then he pulled out a handkerchief, containing a sample of sesame, and said to me,"What is the worth of an ardebb[FN#74] of this?"
8655Then he said to the Afrit,''Is there no help for it, but thou must kill me?''
8655Then he said to the Jew,''Is not this the truth?''
8655Then he said to the eldest lady,''Knowst thou where to find the Afriteh who enchanted thy sisters?''
8655Then he said to the mule,''Is it true?''
8655Then he sent for the fisherman and said to him,''Hark ye, sirrah, whence hadst thou those fish?''
8655Then he sent for the slave and said to him,''Harkye Rihan, whence hadst thou this apple?''
8655Then he turned to his officers and said,''How say you?
8655Then he turned to me and said,"O mortal, dost thou not know this woman?"
8655Then he turned to the gardener and said to him,''O Gaffer Ibrahim, hast thou no drink here, for folk use to drink after eating?''
8655Then he went up to him and said,''O old man, what is thy trade?''
8655Then said Cout el Culoub,''Where is the sick man who is with thee?''
8655Then said Ibrahim to himself,''What ails me to sit apart?
8655Then said he to his daughter,"Whence knewest thou that he was enchanted?"
8655Then said he to me,"What ails thee, O Kafour?
8655Then said he to me,''O silent man, are thy six brothers like thee distinguished for wisdom and knowledge and spareness of speech?''
8655Then said he to my brother,"What dost thou want, O blind man?"
8655Then said he to the Khalif,''O fisherman, why didst thou not bring us the fish ready fried?
8655Then said he,"Wilt thou journey with me to my native country, whither I am about to return with a lading of Cairo and Alexandria stuffs?"
8655Then said my brother,"Is there aught of his in the house?"
8655Then said one of the Jinn to the others,''Know ye who this is?''
8655Then said she,''O my lord, shall I come to thee or wilt thou come to me?''
8655Then said the Khalif to me,''What made thee keep silence at such a time and how camest thou in company with these men of blood?
8655Then said the Lady of Beauty to him,"What ails thee to stand agape and seem perplexed?
8655Then said the husband"What is thy hire for this?"
8655Then said the monitor to him,"O Agib, knowst thou not that the Vizier is thy mother''s father, thy grandfather and not thy father?
8655Then said the portress to the cateress,''O my Sister, why tarriest thou?
8655Then said they to the old man,"O elder, wilt thou not bring us our ordinary?
8655Then she called an old woman, who was with her, and discovered her secret to her, saying,''What shall I do, seeing that Cout el Culoub is no more?''
8655Then she laughed and said to me,''O my father, am I become of so little account in thine eyes that thou bringest in to me strange men?''
8655Then she rose and coming with a stately gait to meet her sisters in the middle of the saloon, said to them,''Why stand ye still?
8655Then she rose into the air to fly about, as was her wo nt, and met an Afrit flying, who saluted her, and she said to him,"Whence comest thou?"
8655Then she said to Bedreddin,''Hast thou any stuffs of figured cloth of gold?''
8655Then she said to me,''O youth, hast thou any handsome stuffs?''
8655Then she said,"O youth, art thou for wine?"
8655Then she said,''Can it be true that thou art indeed come to me?''
8655Then she threw down the sword and said,"How shall I strike off the head of one whom I know not and who has done me no hurt?
8655Then she was glad and rose and putting off her clothes, said to the slave,"O my lord, hast thou aught here for thy handmaid to eat?"
8655Then the Afrit made his voice small and humbled himself and said,''What wilt thou do with me, O fisherman?''
8655Then the lady said to the Calenders,''Are ye brothers?''

8655Then the swordbearer came forward and bandaged his eyes and baring his sword, said to the King,"Have I thy leave to strike?"
8655Thinkest thou I covet thy money?''
8655Thinkst thou that what is past can recur or the dead come back to life?
8655Thou returnest evil for good?"
8655Thy face is Paradise to me; must I in hell- fire groan?
8655Till fortune aimed at us the shafts of severance And parted us; for who her arrows can defy?
8655To every gathering of friends there comes a parting day: And few indeed on earth are those that are from parting free?

8655When Bedreddin heard this, he trembled and said,"What is the matter?"
8655When I saw him, I rose and saluted him and kissed his hand, saying,"O my lord, wilt thou not take thy money?"
8655When I saw this, the fumes of the wine left my head and I said to the lady,"What is the matter?"
8655When Noureddin heard this, he looked at the broker and said to him,''What is to be done?''
8655When Noureddin heard this, he said,"What dowry is this thou wouldst impose on my son?
8655When Noureddin returned, they read trouble in his face; so one of them rose and said to him,''O my lord, maybe thou wilt give me leave to retire?''
8655When he had finished, the King said to him,"Dost thou know why I have sent for thee?"
8655When he saw his uncle, he wept sore and said,"O my lord, what is my offence against thee?"
8655When he saw me, he looked at me out of the corner of his eye and said to those present,''Why did ye cut off his hand?
8655When he saw me, he rejoiced and said,"O my brother, where didst thou pass the night?
8655When he saw this, he was confounded and advanced one foot and drew the other back, saying,"Am I asleep or awake?"
8655When her father heard this, the light in his eyes became darkness, and he cried out at her, saying,"O wanton, what is this thou sayest?
8655When it was night, my husband came in to me and said,"O my lady, what has befallen thee in this excursion?"
8655When shall I find myself in company with the like of these two, who are like two moons?''
8655When she heard his sobs and saw his tears, her heart was on fire for him and she said to him,"O my son, why dost thou weep?
8655When she heard this, she turned to the others and said to them''Is this true that he says of you?''
8655When the King heard this, he wondered and said to him,"How wilt thou do this?
8655When the Vizier saw her she pleased him exceedingly, so he turned to the broker and said to him,''What is the price of this damsel?''
8655When the Vizier saw her thus, he said to her,"O accursed woman, dost thou rejoice in this groom?"
8655When the chief of the police saw this, he said to him,"What is this, O accursed one?"
8655When the people of the house saw him, they said to him,"What dost thou here?"
8655Where are now the old Chosroes, tyrants of a bygone day?
8655Where are they?
8655Where are thy senses?"
8655Where didst thou lie last night?"
8655Where has this smallpox attacked thee and in what part dost thou feel pain?''
8655Where is Zehr el Bustan?''
8655Where then is that for which good grace and generous mercy call?
8655Where wilt thou go now?
8655Whereat the King marvelled exceedingly and said,"O physician, when wilt thou do as thou hast said?
8655Whereto he answer made"What wonder though the scavenger have turned a fire- man[FN#97] now?"
8655Whereupon he wept and sobbed and repeated the following verses: Shall fortune oppress me, and that in thy day, O King?
8655Whereupon the Vizier''s eyes filled with tears and he replied,''O my son, is the loss of my goods and my life of so little account in thine eyes?''
8655Whilst he was debating with himself, the Lady of Beauty lifted the curtain of the alcove and said to him,"O my lord, wilt thou not come in?
8655Who but a fool would sit upon an unquenched fire?
8655Who has been with thee?"
8655Who is left to take pity on me, now that my mistress is dead?
8655Who is this that hath guarded my honour and whose honour I have violated, and who hath protected my harem, whilst I have enslaved his?''
8655Who then is my father?
8655Who would dare to do this except the Khalifate were taken from me?''
8655Why dost thou not answer me, O my lord?"
8655Why dost thou not give me to drink, O my brother?
8655Why is the softness not transferred from this to that, ah why?
8655Why should I not sit with them?
8655Why wilt thou kill me and what calls for my death?
8655Will no one answer my complaint or heed the tears I shed?
8655Will none take pity on my state and succour my despair With but a cup of water cold, to ease my torments dread?
8655Wilt thou cut off my hand, because I ate of a ragout and did not wash?''
8655Wilt thou not now rise and depart?"
8655Wilt thou not rise, O my son, and pass into the garden and take thy pleasure therein and gladden thy heart?''
8655Wilt thou therefore spend five days with me and depart the day before his coming?"
8655Wouldst thou debauch my wife?"
8655Yet in thy presence, by my side, what peace should I enjoy, Since he I love doth ever strive to heap despite on me?
8655[ FN#110] Is not this Enis el Jelis, whom thy father bought of me for ten thousand dinars?''
8655[ FN#56] Moles?
8655art thou not ashamed?''
8655asked the Khalif;''and how can it be more marvellous than this story?''
8655do I need thy price, that I should sell thee?
8655exclaimed the Sultan( and indeed he was angry);''what made thee do that?''
8655how came I to kill this man?
8655how much more of this mourning?"
8655is there no shame in thee?''
8655rejoined they,''how could they get in here?''
8655repeated the Cadi;''and what brings him into my house?''
8655said Jaafer''Why so?''
8655said he;''and whither shall I go, seeing that my substance and fortune are in this house?''
8655shall this rigour last and this inhumanity?
8655shall we say?
8655should I recur; Shall I come back to a body whence the life and blood are flown?

8658And again: I prithee, tell me, friend of mine, stands there beneath the sky A building with the Pyramids of Egypt that can vie In skilful ordinance?
8658And again: Where''s he the Pyramids who built?
8658And all the people marvelled at the prince''s words, saying,''How can a horse come down the steps from the roof?
8658And as saith another:"The script of whiskers on his cheek,"quoth they,"is plain to see: How canst thou then enamoured be of him, and whiskered he?"
8658And he would fain have gone down and fled from her; but, before he could do this, she overtook him and said to him,''Whither away?''
8658And one said,''Did I not tell you that he would do him no hurt?
8658And quoth El Heriri[FN#185] and saith well: My censors say,"What is this love and doting upon him?

8658At this the Khalif was exceeding wroth and said to the Imam,''What is to be done, O Abou Yousuf?''
8658At this the Vizier rejoiced and said,''Is this true that thou sayest?''
8658But he made him no answer, and the girl said to him,''O my lord and darling of my heart, what ails thee that thou wilt not bid for me?
8658But his Viziers and officers said to him,''O King, how shall we overtake the flying bird?
8658But she rejoined,''Tell me the truth of the case, that I may order my affair; and what wantest thou with the mug of water?''
8658But what hast thou seen of them that thou shouldst muse upon?"
8658But who is dead unto thee?"
8658But, belike, this is a dream; for how could I hope that the family of the Khalifate should visit me in my own house and carouse with me this night?"
8658But, when thou camest and we accosted thee by thy name and that of thy father, saying,"Shall we send thee down the gold?"
8658Can life be sweet to me after thee?''
8658Did he leave any children?"
8658Did the notched arrow reach me from midst a host, indeed, Or was it from a lattice that launched at me it flew?
8658Didst ever see aught uglier than a scald- head, with his beard plucked out?
8658Didst thou know of our coming and make this preparation for us?''
8658Dost thou give me leave to reply to her?"
8658Dost thou not see that the growth on his cheek, forsooth, A violet is, that forth of its leaves doth peer?
8658Dost thou not see the Pyramids?
8658Dost thou understand its interpretation and hast thou studied it, according to the various versions and readings?''

8658He opened the first and the second, and I looked at them; after which he said to me,"Of which of them shall I give thee the key?"
8658He replied,"No;"and I said,"Thy mother?"
8658He returned my greeting and I said to him,"Whose house is that?"
8658He sprinkled water on his face and when he revived, he said to him,''What has betided thee?

8658He went out and returned, pale and trembling in every nerve; so I said to him,"What ails thee?"
8658Here he met a man, between whom and his father there had been friendship; and he saluted him and said to him,''Whither away?''
8658His eyelids warranted me the keeping of his troth; But how shall they, that bankrupt[FN#16] are, fulfil their warranty?
8658His next neighbour said to him,''Why dost thou not eat of what is before thee?
8658His wife asked him,''What ails thee and where is the ass?''

8658How many pigeons were there in all?''
8658How shall I do with her seeing I can not read writing?''
8658How shall I go forth against them, seeing that I am afoot and they are mounted?''
8658How shall I live after him?
8658How shall I one forget who is my heart and soul, My malady and he that healing can apply?
8658How shall my life be sweet to me, while she''s afar, That is my life, my wish, the apple of my sight?
8658How shall the marriage be brought about, seeing it misliketh me to open the matter to him?''
8658How should a dog of mine make gift to thee of a dish of gold and I receive back its price?
8658How then can I return without him?''

8658Is there a bitterer thing than distance and disdain?
8658Is there no judge, in Love its law, to judge betwixt us twain, to do me justice on thy head and take my wreak of thee?
8658Is''t grudgingness in her or inhumanity?
8658Is''t not enough for thee to have a weeping eye And vitals still on fire for memory and despite?

8658Knowest thou not that mighty kings and captains and noble princes still submit themselves humbly to women and depend on them for delight?
8658Knowest thou not that the beard is to men as the side- locks to women; and what is the difference between the chin and the cheek?
8658Living can it not be reckoned, neither may we count it dead: Tell me, then, what is this wonder, rarity of all things rare?''
8658Moreover, is the companying together of lovers good but in the night?

8658Whom then dost thou love?"
8658Whose song is that?"
8658Why''mongst the visitors wast thou then not to see?
8658Why, then, do censors blame me for loving one who''s all A mole?
8658Will none my murderess ensue and wreak me on her head?
8658Wilt thou not follow in its track, that so thou mayst salute The sepulchre of one who''s dead, committed to the pit?
8658Wilt thou sell me the ape for that sum?"

19993A useless little box,he said to himself, but back he raced with it to the soldier; and then-- what do you think happened?
19993AND WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MINE?
19993Alas, wife,he said,"art thou better off for being pope?"
19993Alas, wife,said the man,"what should we be king for?
19993Alas, wife,said the man,"what wilt thou not want?
19993Alas, wife,said the man,"whatever dost thou want to be king for?
19993Alas, wife,said the man,"why dost thou now want to be emperor?"
19993Alas,said the man,"what am I to go back there for?"
19993Am I to understand you have been doing all the work for me?
19993An''are you sorry for our agreement?
19993An''where would I get''em but in the heads of your own sheep? 19993 And do you blame me, master?"
19993And do you say no more nor that?
19993And how many pounds will you take, sir?
19993And now, what are you doing here?
19993And now, what funny thing was it you saw up yonder on the hillside?
19993And now,asked the Fox,"what are you going to do with all that money?"
19993And the cow?
19993And the gold?
19993And the horse?
19993And the pig?
19993And then? 19993 And then?"
19993And what did Grethel give you?
19993And what did Grethel give you?
19993And what did Grethel give you?
19993And what did she give you?
19993And what did you do with it?
19993And what did you hear, my Mary, All up on the Caldon hill?
19993And what did you see, my Mary, All up on the Caldon Low?
19993And what did you take to her?
19993And what did you take to her?
19993And what do you know?
19993And what do you say to me,says Saint Kavin,"for making her the like?"
19993And what good came of it at last?
19993And what have you given her?
19993And what might that one be?
19993And what shall I bring for you, my Beauty?
19993And what trade does he follow?
19993And what was he doing?
19993And what were the words, my Mary, That then you heard them say?
19993And where are they? 19993 And where are you going?"

19993And who wo n''t you have, may I be so bold as to ask?
19993And why did you shoulder it?
19993And why were you wearing your sword?
19993And your gold pieces?
19993And,said the wolf,"where does your good Grannie live, little lady?"
19993Are my companions ready?
19993Are you afraid of poison?
19993Are you awake, children?
19993Are you friz?
19993Are you having supper?
19993Are you not very tired?
19993Are you perhaps speaking of me?
19993Are you warm, fair maiden?
19993Are you warm, maiden?
19993Are you warm, maiden?
19993Ay,quoth Jack,"but pray tell me what is the meaning of your captivity?"
19993BUT WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MINE AND TASTED IT ALL UP?
19993Big?
19993Blur- an- agers, how came ye to know about my goose?
19993But are there really any brownies except children?
19993But how is it possible that they could have become so many?
19993But if you do the work, where is the brownie?
19993But is it morning? 19993 But what am I to do under the tree?"
19993But when do you do it?
19993But where is Grannie?
19993But why do n''t the other two do something?
19993But will you gi''me all the ground the goose flew over?
19993Can we gather some of these?
19993Can you tell me,asked Sentaro,"where the hermits live who have the Elixir of Life?"
19993Could you, could you? 19993 Dear friends,"said he,"whence come you?"
19993Did I not say so?
19993Did he not perform every task I required, even that of getting for me the water whereby I shall never grow old?
19993Did n''t I always say so?
19993Did they give him any wages, grandmother?
19993Did they pay for supper?
19993Did you ever see such stupid fellows? 19993 Did you find out the word?"
19993Didst thou not wish for anything then?
19993Do n''t be frightened,said the Beast gently,"but tell me, do you come here of your own free will?"
19993Do n''t the clothes look fine?
19993Do n''t you know me, my darling?
19993Do n''t you wish you could_ see_ him?
19993Do n''t you wish you were going to the ball?
19993Do you hear that, wife, do you hear it?
19993Do you know where you live?
19993Do you only know one story?
19993Do you see that big tree?
19993Do you see that large white house? 19993 Do you think,"asked the King,"that she could be induced to change her mind?"
19993Does he gain much?
19993Does she indeed?
19993Fanny, wouldst thou have the same gift as thy sister?
19993Father,said Jack,"can you lodge a benighted traveler that has lost his way?"
19993For why should I grumble and murmur?
19993For yourself?
19993Gain much? 19993 Give me a piece of your cake and a drink of your wine?"
19993Good day, Master Antonio,said Geppetto;"what are you doing there on the floor?"
19993Good day,replied Grethel,"what treasure do you bring to- day?"
19993Have I not fed you, lodged you, and clothed you, and now you must repay my hospitality by stealing the only thing I care for, my roses?
19993Have you a passport?
19993Have you come for me?
19993Have you got the tinder- box?
19993How can I get it?
19993How can one be merry when one''s neck has been pinched like mine?
19993How can such a ridiculous animal give me rational advice?
19993How can we cross,said Hansel,"for there is no bridge anywhere?"
19993How can you ask me?
19993How come you to be here?
19993How come you to be here?
19993How dare you ride when your poor little boy is walking and can hardly keep pace with you?
19993How do I know that she will not prove to be some old fright?
19993How do you come to know my name?
19993How do you know that?
19993How do you think we toys could live if we had no life but the one we endure at your hands? 19993 How far off is the Field of Miracles?"
19993How have you come to our house?
19993How have you rested?
19993How little was the pellet, uncle?
19993How many are you, then,said I,"If they two are in heaven?"
19993How many fingers before you?
19993How many? 19993 How much money have you, fair Catherine?"
19993How shall I reach home?
19993How shall I set about it?
19993How so?
19993How tiny was the voice, Michael aroon?
19993How was it, then,said the King,"that you came to kill them?"
19993Husband,she said,"hast thou caught nothing to- day?"
19993Husband,she said,"what art thou standing there for?
19993I am King O''Toole,says he,"prince and plennypennytinchery of these parts,"says he;"but how came ye to know that?"
19993I do n''t suppose you could tell me which way to go?
19993I know that you are a great rascal; and where did you get the eyes?
19993I see no cause to repent my choice; You build your nest in the lofty pine, But is your slumber more sweet than mine? 19993 I see our two relations are conversing over there; shall we join them?"
19993I suppose you are a diamond?
19993I want a little wood to make my puppet; will you give me some?
19993I''ll give you whatever you ask,says the King;"is n''t that fair?"
19993I?
19993If you please, ma''am,said he,"will you give me some breakfast?"
19993If you please, ma''am,said he,"would you kindly give me some breakfast?
19993In what way?
19993Is it a tinker you are?
19993Is it far away, in some region old, Where the rivers wander o''er sands of gold? 19993 Is it fearing I wo n''t pay you, you are?"
19993Is it fighting you''ve been? 19993 Is it making game of me you are?
19993Is it possible to hear of anything more dreadful?
19993Is it true that you have killed seven at one blow?
19993Is it under your control?
19993Is it where the feathery palm trees rise, And the date grows ripe under sunny skies? 19993 Is it you, Donald?"
19993Is n''t your Buttercup at home to- day?
19993Is she a good girl?
19993Is that all true?
19993Is that all?
19993Is there any supper, grandmother?
19993Is this splendid castle indeed yours?
19993Is this the royal palace?
19993Is this the way you are mending the path, Jack?
19993Jack, you anointed scoundrel, what do you mean?
19993Jack, you vagabone, do you see what the cows are at?
19993Jack,Margaret whispered,"are you asleep?"
19993Jewels, you say? 19993 May I be permitted to ask if you are of gold?"
19993May I go with you, my pretty maid?
19993May I have supper too? 19993 May I have supper with you?"
19993May I marry your daughter?
19993May I marry your daughter?

19993May I not creak?
19993May I not sweep?
19993May I try?
19993May we have one to keep?
19993May we have one?
19993Most gracious lord,said the Vizier,"what think you of these dignified long legs, and how would you like to know their chatter?"
19993Must I thank you then,said the king,"Sir Lark, For flying so high and hating the dark?
19993My good fellow,said a townsman whom they met,"is that ass your own?"
19993No,said the man;"what was there to wish for?"
19993Now who is cleverer?
19993Now, Cinderella, can you find a coachman?
19993Now, then, old shaver, what has crossed you?
19993Now, what do you want?
19993Now, what do you want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now,said the woman,"is not this worth having?"
19993Of course not, child; but do you know that I have some news for you?
19993Of what use am I to you?
19993Oh Giant,quoth Jack,"where are you now?
19993Oh, dear Beast,she cried,"and are you really dead?
19993Oh, grandmother, where did he go?
19993Oh, heavens, where am I?
19993Oh, must we walk across there?
19993Oh, pray do n''t; why do you wish to do so?
19993Oh, where does faithful Gelert roam, The flower of all his race? 19993 Once for all,"shouted Pinocchio in a rage,"may I know, you ill- educated Parrot, what are you laughing at?"
19993One puppy dog with brown spots on white?
19993Or shall I tell you, children, About Red Riding Hood? 19993 Perhaps a broom- binder?"
19993Pretty? 19993 Prithee,"quoth the giant,"what bad news can come to me?
19993Ripe?
19993Sisters and brothers, little maid, How many may you be?
19993So you stand here all alone and hew, do you?
19993So you''ve come to visit me again, eh? 19993 Supposing you do pay for them,"the people answered,"where is the good of wasting your money in order to free such villains?"
19993That''s it, is it? 19993 The first is: How many drops of water are there in the sea?"
19993The second question,said the King,"is: How many stars are there in the sky?"
19993Then the pardon is granted?
19993Then you would have it that it was I?
19993Then,said the door,"Broom, why do you sweep?"
19993Then,said the window,"Door, why do you jar?"
19993There is a large gray rat in the rat- trap-- would he do, Godmother?
19993To whom does it belong?
19993WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MY SOUP?
19993Was it you, Woodpecker,said the King,"who sounded the war- gong?"
19993Was she dreaming herself now?
19993Was there no escape from the underground home?
19993Well then, neighbor Geppetto,said the carpenter, to prove that peace was made,"what is the favor that you wish of me?"
19993Well, Drake- lake, where are you going?

19993Well, honest man,says the King,"and how is it you make your money so aisy?"
19993Well, now,said Peter and Paul,"have you found out where the water comes from?
19993Well, then,said the Fox,"you are quite decided to go home?
19993Well, was it so big?
19993Well, what was it, so rare and strange,said Peter and Paul,"that you saw up there at the top of the rock?"
19993Well, what would you say if I told you that it was as small as a humming bird''s egg? 19993 Well, who can know?
19993Well,said the fox,"but what sign shall we appoint?"
19993Were they of good birth?
19993What am I to do here? 19993 What are these three questions?"
19993What are they about?
19993What are you crying for, child?
19993What are you doing there, you rascal?
19993What are you doing, you contrary thief?
19993What are you dreaming of?
19993What are you dreaming of?
19993What are you going to do with the tinder- box, just tell me that?
19993What are you thinking of? 19993 What are you to do?

19993What name shall I give him?
19993What pretty work you are doing there, Goody? 19993 What shall it be, my children?
19993What shall we do now?
19993What sort of animal has made this?
19993What was your work?
19993What wonder is it, pray, that a woodcutter should stand and hack up on a hillside?
19993What would bring them there?
19993What''ll you take for that hide?
19993What''s going to be done?
19993What''s that I heard you say? 19993 What''s the matter, friends?"
19993What''s the matter? 19993 What''s the meaning of this?"
19993What?

19993Will you take a gold piece?
19993Would you have it then, that it was I? 19993 Would you like to make out of your five miserable gold pieces, a hundred, a thousand, two thousand?"
19993Would you not like to bring them their eyes again? 19993 Yes, so I am; now, is not that a pretty trade?"
19993Yes,said the field- mouse;"what can a bird do but sing?

19993And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day?
19993And instead of two thousand supposing I found five thousand?
19993And is n''t it, my boy or girl, The wisest, bravest plan, Whatever comes, or does n''t come, To do the best you can?
19993And now tell me, girls, what shall I bring you when I come back?"
19993And once when the queen asked her Looking- glass:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is the fairest of all?"
19993And suppose the world do n''t please you, Nor the way some people do, Do you think the whole creation Will be altered just for you?
19993And the Middling- sized Bear cried, in a Middling- sized Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR?"
19993And the Middling- sized Bear, seeing that the coverlet was all rumpled, cried out, in a Middling- sized Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED?"
19993And then the door asked:"Why are you screaming, Flea?"
19993And then?
19993And this, now,"showing the fire,"what would you call this?"
19993And what did they want?"
19993And what do you call all this?"
19993And what do you call these?"
19993And what do you think happened?
19993And what do you think he did?
19993And what do you think they are doing?
19993And what would you call this?"
19993And what, this?"
19993And when she asked of the Looking- glass at home:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all?"
19993And when the Mouse- deer came into the presence of the King, the King inquired of the Otter,"What is your charge against him?"
19993And when the lady had ceased to speak, the King said:"Connla, my son, has thy mind been moved by the words of the lady?"
19993And where do you think she played?
19993And where do you think she slept?
19993And where was Grannie all this time, you will say?
19993And why does that wheel go whirr, whirr, whirr?"
19993And would n''t it be nicer For you to smile than pout, And so make sunshine in the house When there is none without?
19993And would n''t it be nobler To keep your temper sweet, And in your heart be thankful You can walk upon your feet?
19993And would n''t it be pleasanter To treat it as a joke, And say you''re glad''twas Dolly''s, And not your head that broke?
19993And would n''t it be wiser Than waiting, like a dunce, To go to work in earnest And learn the thing at once?
19993And ye do n''t know what this same gloomery is?
19993And your papa and your mamma, are they still alive?"
19993Are they nice apples?"
19993Are you a beast of field and tree, Or just a stronger child than me?
19993Are you a tailor?"
19993Are you sorry for hiring me, master?"
19993Are you sorry for it?"
19993Are you sorry for our agreement?"
19993Are you still warm, my dear?"
19993As she did so, she heard-- what could it be?
19993As soon as the Great Big Bear looked at his bed, he cried out, in his Great Big Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED?"
19993At last Margaret said:"But where is Santa Claus?
19993At last he spoke to the sisters, and asked:"To whom does this beautiful tree belong?
19993At six o''clock the wolf came to the little pig''s house and said:"Little pig, are you ready?"
19993At this the streamlet, from which she drew the water, asked:"Why do you break your pitcher, my little girl?"
19993But he did n''t care a bit for that; up he climbed, and when he got near the top, what do you think he saw?
19993But how could she get it?
19993But how was he going to find the way into the castle, that was the question?
19993But in what way?"
19993But is n''t he wise-- To jes''dream of stars, as the doctors advise?
19993But the Teeny Tiny Bear cried out in a Teeny Tiny Voice of anger:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR, AND SAT THE BOTTOM OUT?"
19993But the Teeny Tiny Bear cried out, in a Teeny Tiny Voice of astonishment:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED AND LIES THERE STILL?"
19993But they with gentle faces Sit quietly apart; What room have they for sorrowing While fairy minstrels sit and sing Close to each listening heart?
19993But what am I to give you, old witch?
19993But what became of the poor fox?
19993But what could the little fish do to help Thumbelina?
19993But what would the Queen have said if she had known that what the Princess told them was no dream, but something that had really and truly happened?
19993But when did that happen?
19993But when they had gone a good bit she grew weary, and asked,"How far is it off to Snoring?"
19993But where have you bought that fine goose?"
19993But why do you want a baby?
19993But yet, being hungry, he did not wish to go without his dinner; so to make all as safe as he could, he cried:"Where are all the little crabs gone?
19993CHARLES KINGSLEY***** FOREIGN LANDS Up into the cherry tree Who should climb but little me?
19993Can anyone be hidden inside it?
19993Can the cruel Wolf have eaten her up?"
19993Can you guess who they were?...
19993Could he lift him?
19993Could it be the swallow?
19993Could the bird be alive?
19993Did I say alone?
19993Did n''t you know that?"
19993Did n''t you know, you bosthoon, that when I said''holding the plow,''I meant reddening[ plowing up] the ground?"
19993Did n''t you see the gold with your own two eyes?"
19993Did you not meet them?"

19993Do n''t you think so, you old Fir Tree?"
19993Do tell me?"

19993Do you blame me, sir?"
19993Do you know how hard a hermit''s life is?
19993Do you know how many children Go to little beds at night, And without a care or sorrow, Wake up in the morning light?

19993Do you know how many stars There are shining in the skies?
19993Do you know what this story teaches you?
19993Do you think that you would ever have the patience or the endurance to live a hermit''s life?
19993EDWARD LEAR***** PRECOCIOUS PIGGY Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Every one flocked round to see him, and being carried to the King, he was asked who he was-- whence he came-- and where he lived?
19993FRANCIS C. WOODWORTH***** FOR A''THAT AND A''THAT Is there for honest poverty Wha hangs his head, and a''that?
19993GEORGE MACDONALD***** WHERE ARE YOU GOING, MY PRETTY MAID?
19993Green leaves a- floating, Castles of the foam, Boats of mine a- boating-- Where will all come home?
19993Had they not sung to her and fluttered round her all the long glad summer days?
19993Has n''t it kept me and mine for years?"
19993Have n''t I killed seven at one blow?
19993Have n''t I slain two giants, a unicorn, and a wild boar?
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you been there?
19993Have you got a baby to give me?"
19993Have you never heard how water rises from a spring in the earth?"
19993He asked,"What reward will be given to the man who kills Cormoran?"
19993He called to speak to the master in the haggard, and said he,"What are servants asked to do in this country after aten their supper?"
19993He heard the goose- girl say,"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993He looked down at her as she stood by his horse, and said:"Little Two Eyes, what shall I give you for this?"
19993He rubbed his eyes and said:"Alas, wife, what didst thou say?"
19993He said to her:"What will you call me?"
19993He said to the fox,"May I go into the sea?"
19993He sputtered it out, and cried,"Man o''the house, is n''t it a great shame for you to have any one in the room that would do such a nasty thing?"
19993He stood before her, and said,"Alas, wife, art thou now king?"
19993He then asked:"And where did my good friends say they would wait for me?"
19993He then asked:"Is there anything else to be done?"
19993He turned round, and what did he see?
19993Her hair stood on end; she panted for breath, and screamed:"I wo n''t bear it any longer; wilt thou go?"
19993Her husband stood still, and said,"Wife, art thou now emperor?"
19993His eyes glistened and for the last time he asked,"Are you warm, now, beautiful maiden?
19993His old favorite sadly knelt and kissed his hand, saying:"Sire, how have I offended?"
19993How are you?"
19993How can I feed my hungry little ones when we have no food for ourselves?"
19993How could she reach the shore?
19993How could she say good- by for ever to the beautiful sunshine?
19993How could she tell which door she had marked?
19993How could the King refuse so harmless a request?
19993How dare you ask me how I am getting on?
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you manage yours?"
19993How grieved she was, too, for had she not lost her little friend the butterfly?
19993How many arts are you master of?"
19993How slow its pace; and then its hue-- Who ever saw so fine a blue?"
19993However long he lived here, life would always be the same, so was it not foolish and wearisome to stay on here for ever?
19993Hungry?
19993Hurrah for the pumpkin- pie?
19993I am not a brownie, am I?"
19993I have one which is a little damaged indeed, but for which I would ask nothing more than your goose; would that suit you?"
19993I have within my pantry good store of all that''s nice; I''m sure you''re very welcome-- will you please to take a slice?"
19993I wonder if trees will come out of the forest to look at me?
19993I''ve as many legs as you: Why ca n''t we walk on two?"
19993I''ve been to London To look at the Queen Pussy- cat, pussy- cat, What did you there?
19993III"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling Your ring?"
19993If I have money as often as I feel in my pocket, what else shall I have to care about?"
19993If it were only not so dark here, and so terribly solitary!--not even a little hare?
19993If we strive,''tis no disgrace Though we may not win the race; What should you do in that case?
19993Immediately the Beast opened his eyes, sighed, and said:"Beauty, will you marry me?"
19993In me he delighted, By him I was knighted; Did you never hear of Sir Thomas Thumb?"
19993In spite of being cross at Meg''s having run away, Nurse had to laugh; then she bent down and said,"But what made you run away like this, Miss Meg?"
19993In the meanwhile, during the night, the gold piece will grow and flower, and in the morning when you return to the field, what do you find?
19993In the spring, when the Swallows and the Stork came, the Tree asked them,"Do you know where they were taken?
19993Is anything wrong, that you do not speak?"
19993Is it nice and warm?
19993Is it possible that this piece of wood can have learnt to cry and to lament like a child?
19993Is it there, sweet mother, that better land?"
19993Is it where the flower of the orange blows, And the fireflies dance through the myrtle boughs?"
19993Is it you?"
19993Is the pudding done?
19993Is this Sunday?"
19993JAMES MERRICK***** THE BLACKBERRY GIRL"Why, Phebe, are you come so soon?
19993Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, How many were going to St. Ives?
19993LEWIS CARROLL***** WHERE GO THE BOATS?
19993Little Robin Redbreast jumped upon a wall, Pussy- cat jumped after him, and almost got a fall; Little Robin chirped and sang, and what did pussy say?
19993Little Snow- white looked out of the window and called out:"Good- day, my good woman, what have you to sell?"
19993Margaret, do n''t you wish you could see Santa Claus?
19993May I make bold to ask how is your goose, King O''Toole?"
19993May n''t Massachusetts prove as great As any other sister state?
19993Maybe you''re sorry for your bargain?"
19993Meanwhile he was thinking to himself:"And if instead of a thousand gold pieces, I was to find on the branches of the tree two thousand?...
19993Mother opened the gate and said,--"Well, what have you seen to- day?"
19993Next they met a herd of cattle, and again to the King''s question,"To whom do they belong?"
19993No?
19993Not having so much as a fish- bone to give to him, what did my friend, who has really the heart of a Cæsar, do?
19993Now the mole was very wise and very clever, but how could little Thumbelina ever care for him?
19993Now the question to be settled was, who should undertake to fasten the bell round the Cat''s neck?
19993Now there was a fine large walnut- tree growing by the cottage, and the tree said to the form:"Form, why do you run round the house?"
19993Now there was an old form outside the house, and when the window creaked, the form said:"Window, why do you creak?"
19993Now what will you have?"
19993Now, Nursey, what makes you remind me?
19993Now, do n''t be a dog in the manger, for, if_ you_ get all you want, what can it matter to you if_ I_ am rich or poor?"
19993Now, do you know where your brother is?"
19993Now, next the ashes there grew a tree, which asked:"Little heap, why do you burn?"
19993Now, the third little pig met a man with a load of bricks and mortar, and he said:"Please, man, will you give me those bricks to build a house with?"
19993O gholes, You queer little drolls, Do you mean....?"
19993O you that are so strong and cold, O blower, are you young or old?
19993Of what use are they?
19993Oh arriving he saw that his children had been killed, and exclaimed,"How comes it, Friend Mouse- deer, that my babies have died?"
19993Oh do n''t you remember the babes in the wood?"
19993Oh, who are so happy as we?"
19993Oh, you think it was smaller than that?
19993Once, in the midst of her sorrow she looked up, and saw a woman standing near her who said,"What are you weeping for, little Two Eyes?"
19993One day the King happened to be passing the tower and heard him exclaim:"I am the King''s most faithful subject; how have I incurred his displeasure?"
19993Only the Fir Tree was quite silent, and thought,"Shall I not be in it?
19993Or how sweet Cinderella went So gaily to the ball?"
19993Or shall I tell the story Of Puss in Boots-- the scamp?
19993Or what befell those little Babes Who wandered in the Wood?
19993Or would you like to hear the tale Of Blue Beard, fierce and grim?
19993Or, where''s the boy but three feet high Who''s made improvement more than I?
19993Or, where''s the town, go far or near, That does not find a rival here?
19993Out came the cobbler:"How much for your hides, my men?"
19993Out came the tanner:"How much for your hides, my good men?"
19993Perhaps I may marry a Princess too?"
19993Pif- paf Poltrie, what trade are you?
19993Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day in the morning?
19993Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
19993Pray, what do I want with a hundred men?
19993Presently the wise woman stood again before her, and said,"Little Two Eyes, why do you weep?"
19993Presently the wolf asked:"Why are you running about so, you fox, jumping in and out?"
19993Prince, have you come at last?
19993Quoth he,"What news with my poor cousin Jack?"
19993ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** A LOBSTER QUADRILLE"Will you walk a little faster?"
19993ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** THE SPIDER AND THE FLY"Will you walk into my parlor?"
19993SYDNEY DOBELL***** THE DEATH AND BURIAL OF COCK ROBIN Who killed Cock Robin?
19993Said the cunning spider to the fly:"Dear friend, what can I do To prove the warm affection I''ve always felt for you?
19993See here, now, could we not be king over all this land?
19993Shall I grow fast here, and stand adorned in summer and winter?"
19993Shall I have nothing to do in it?"
19993Shall we not seek it and weep no more?
19993She took him by the hand, and said:"Come and look in here-- isn''t this much better?"
19993Snapping his fingers in her lovely face, he asked:"Do you know who I am?
19993So Mrs. Stone only asked,"Where were you going when you came to my house?"
19993So Nora turned the key at once, and out stepped----""A fairy, Michael?"
19993So all ended well, and what more could anyone wish?
19993So he called out:"Little house, pretty house, my sweet little house, why do you not give an answer when I call?
19993So, as he went up and up, the brook got smaller and smaller, and at last, a little way farther on, what do you think he saw?
19993Suppose that some boys have a horse, And some a coach and pair, Will it tire you less while walking To say,"It is n''t fair?"
19993Suppose you''re dressed for walking, And the rain comes pouring down, Will it clear off any sooner Because you scold and frown?
19993Suppose your task, my little man, Is very hard to get, Will it make it any easier For you to sit and fret?
19993Suppose, my little lady, Your doll should break her head, Could you make it whole by crying Till your eyes and nose are red?
19993Surely you do not hang sheep?"
19993That vagabond, bad luck to him----""You mean Donald O''Neary?"
19993That, I suppose, would be quite impossible?"
19993The Jogi, seeing the lad, called out fiercely,"What do you want here?"
19993The King was astonished and asked:"What does this all mean?"
19993The Queen, at home, went in front of the Glass, and said:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is the fairest of all?"
19993The Wind he took to his revels once more; On down, In town, Like a merry- mad clown, He leaped and hallooed with whistle and roar--"What''s that?"
19993The fifth,"Who has been using my fork?"
19993The first said,"Who has been sitting on my chair?"
19993The flounder came swimming up, and said:"Well, what do you want?"
19993The fourth,"Who has been eating my fruit?"
19993The giant cried out again,"Art thou that villain who killed my kinsmen?
19993The giant roared out at this like thunder,"Who''s there?"
19993The giant turned round, and seeing nobody but the little tailor there, he cried with scorn:"And what might you be doing here, might I ask?
19993The horseman, who heard this, pulled up and cried,"Hullo, Hans why do you trudge on foot?"
19993The journey was made so entertaining for the Princess that she one day said to Charming:"Why did I not make you King, and remain in my own country?"
19993The latch was lifted, and a voice said,--"Have you seen a little girl in a white frock pass this way?"
19993The next morning they again came to the gate where Falada''s head was nailed, and the goose- girl said as before:"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993The next morning, when she and Curdken drove their geese under the gate, the Princess wrung her hands and cried:"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993The old woman nodded her head to them, and said:"Who brought you here, my pets?
19993The same fond mother bent at night O''er each fair, sleeping brow; She had each folded flower in sight: Where are those sleepers now?
19993The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?"
19993The seventh,"Who has been drinking out of my mug?"
19993The sixth,"Who has been cutting with my knife?"
19993The third,"Who has been taking some of my bread?"
19993The three little kittens washed their mittens, And hung them out to dry; O mother dear, Do not you hear, That we have washed our mittens?
19993The wolf said,"What is the sea?"
19993The young Prince set out on his journey, but he sighed and felt very sorrowful, for where was he to find the golden horse?
19993Then Jock said,"_ Little_ dogs?"
19993Then Tatty sat down and wept, and a three- legged stool said:"Tatty, why do you weep?"
19993Then a broom in the corner of the room said:"Stool, why do you hop?"
19993Then he asked the third:"Why have you such a big thumb?"
19993Then he looked at her for some time, and said,"Alas, wife, how much better off art thou for being emperor?"
19993Then he said:"Little Two Eyes, can you break off a branch of the tree for me?"
19993Then he said:"Whatever are you three doing, sitting there crying, and letting the beer run all over the floor?"
19993Then he went to the second, and asked:"Why have you such an overhanging lip?"
19993Then she asked,"Who will take this wheat to the mill?"
19993Then the King commanded the Great Lizard to be summoned, and when he arrived, the King inquired,"Was it you, Lizard, wearing your sword?"
19993Then the King said unto the Mouse- deer,"Was it your doing that the Otter''s children were killed?"
19993Then the King sent for the Crayfish, and said,"Was it you, Crayfish, who was shouldering your lance?"
19993Then the child said,"Good lark, will you send home Tiny Bill to play with me?"
19993Then the envious mother cried out to poor little Two Eyes,"You wish to have better food than we, do you?
19993Then the first looked round and saw that there was a little hole in his bed, and he said:"Who has been getting into my bed?"
19993There must be something grander, something greater still to come; but what?
19993There was a young lady in blue, Who said,"Is it you?
19993There was a young maid who said,"Why Ca n''t I look in my ear with my eye?
19993There was an Old Man who said"How Shall I flee from this horrible Cow?
19993There was an old person of Ware Who rode on the back of a bear; When they said,"Does it trot?"
19993Thereupon the King said:"The third question is: How many seconds are there in eternity?"
19993Thereupon the door began to creak as if it were in pain; and a broom, which stood in the corner, asked,"What are you creaking for, door?"
19993They are waiting on the shingle-- will you come and join the dance?
19993They had gone almost half- way when the Fox, halting suddenly, said to the puppet:"Would you like to double your money?"
19993This noise roused the giant, who rushed from his cave, crying:"You incorrigible villain, are you come here to disturb my rest?
19993This piece of wood here it is; a log for fuel like all others, and thrown on the fire it would about suffice to boil a saucepan of beans.... How then?
19993Turning to Pinocchio he asked:"Well, what do you want from me?"
19993UNKNOWN***** THE FAIRIES OF THE CALDON LOW A MIDSUMMER LEGEND"And where have you been, my Mary, And where have you been from me?"
19993VI THE SHOWMAN BECOMES GENEROUS The following day Fire- eater called Pinocchio to one side and asked him:"What is your father''s name?"
19993Well, how about the seed of a coriander?
19993Well, the long and the short of it was that Donald let the hide go, and, that very evening, who but he should walk up to Hudden''s door?

19993What do they say in Baby- Land?
19993What do you think of it?"
19993What do you want of me?"

19993What does little birdie say, In her nest at peep of day?
19993What good will it do you to kill me?
19993What good would forty heads do her?

19993What in the world did you make such a noise for?"
19993What is to happen?"
19993What kind of thing is this sea, and how does it look?"

19993What would young life be without"Puss in Boots"and"Little Red Riding Hood"and"The Sleeping Beauty"?
19993What''s that?"
19993What''s the matter?"
19993What, leaving your Mother, you foolish young pig?
19993Whatever can I do to get rid of him?"
19993When may that be done?
19993When the Great Big Bear went to sit down in his Great Big Chair, he cried out in his Great Big Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR?"
19993When the sun got low, the King''s son said,"Jack, since we have no money, where can we lodge this night?"
19993When they said,"Is it small?"
19993Whence came you?
19993Where are they, and where are their tiny commodities?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Where are your berries, child?
19993Where can respectable people like us find a safe refuge?"
19993Where did you get those from?"
19993Where do all the babies go?
19993Where do all the birdies go?
19993Where do all the daisies go?
19993Where does the tongue- cut Sparrow stay?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where have you been?"
19993Where the burning rays of the ruby shine, And the diamond lights up the secret mine, And the pearl gleams forth from the coral strand?
19993Where were they going?
19993Whereabouts?
19993Whither are they taken?"
19993Who caught his blood?
19993Who could it be?
19993Who goes there?
19993Who goes there?"...
19993Who has been sweeping the kitchen lately, I should like to know?"
19993Who is the Queen of Baby- Land?
19993Who is there?"
19993Who saw him die?
19993Who would buy gallows''-flesh, and when have I ever had the slightest desire to sit on the brink of a well?"
19993Who would have believed it?"
19993Who''ll be chief mourner?
19993Who''ll be the clerk?
19993Who''ll be the parson?
19993Who''ll bear the torch?
19993Who''ll dig his grave?
19993Who''ll make his shroud?
19993Who''ll sing his dirge?
19993Who''s nibbling at my house?"
19993Who, then, could it be?
19993Why did n''t you measure out small ones?"
19993Why do n''t they work?"
19993Why do they keep all their branches?
19993Why do you not listen to my advice?
19993Why should n''t I have them all to myself?"
19993Why, just suppose it was you?
19993Will no other diet serve you but poor Jack?"
19993Will the sparrows fly against the panes?
19993Will you begin, if you please, and put in the thatch again, just as if you were doing it for your mother''s cabin?"
19993Will you come with us?
19993Will you come with us?"
19993Will you hear the story of Ivede- Avede, or of Klumpey- Dumpey, who fell downstairs, and still was raised up to honor and married the Princess?"
19993Will you lend me your best pair of scales?"
19993Will you not lend me your old yellow gown, that I may go to the ball to- morrow with you?"
19993Will you rest upon my little bed?"
19993Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, will you join the dance?
19993Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, will you join the dance?
19993Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, wo n''t you join the dance?
19993Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, wo n''t you join the dance?"
19993Would he fly away, she wondered, or would her sash hold him fast?
19993Would n''t it be a fine thing for a farmer to be marrying a Princess, all dressed in gold and jewels?"
19993Would you have me meddle with the bastes of any neighbor, who might put me in the Stone Jug for it?"
19993Yes, then something even better will come, something far more charming, or else why should they adorn me so?
19993You are asking me how tiny was the voice?
19993You have eaten the whole as you stood godfather; first_ Top- off_, then_ Half- out_, then--""Will you be quiet?"
19993You have heard the sound of the rivulet when it falls upon the mossy stones in the pasture by the bar- way?
19993You make more noise in the world than I, But whose is the sweeter minstrelsy?"
19993You might make her look all mended-- but what do I care for looks?
19993You want to see Santa Claus?
19993You will give me and baby bread and butter with sugar on it, wo n''t you?"
19993You would n''t wish to keep the luck all to yourself?"
19993_ All- out!_ What can that mean?"
19993and going up to the one with a broad foot, he asked:"Why have you such a broad foot?"
19993and instead of five thousand that I found a hundred thousand?
19993and the echo in the surrounding hills repeated in the distance:"Who goes there?
19993and what would you be taking their feet off for?"
19993are you there?
19993can I not cause the sun and the moon to rise?
19993corrected to''?''
19993cried her sister angrily;"lend one of my dresses to a little cinder- maid?
19993cried her sisters;"you, with your two eyes, what can you do?"
19993cries the other in a fury--"Why, sir!--d''ye think I''ve lost my eyes?"
19993do I dream, or am I awake?
19993do n''t you wish that you were me?
19993do n''t you wish that you were me?
19993exclaimed the bridegroom,"how is it you have such ugly relations?"
19993he cried,"what will my poor children do without me?"
19993how are you, and how do you get along in these hard times?"
19993is that the courteous way in which you make your presents, Master Antonio?
19993laughed the little pig;"so I frightened you, eh?
19993let us be married; too long we have tarried; But what shall we do for a ring?"
19993oh!?''...
19993oh, where is that radiant shore?
19993or mayhap you met the police, ill luck to them?"
19993quoth the Prince,"what shall we do there?
19993quoth the giant;"did you not feel anything in the night?"
19993quoth the old frog,"How big?
19993said Jack again;"So you lie here, and trickle and run down all alone?"
19993said he,"where shall I find a Princess now?
19993said his wife;"is n''t it bad enough always to live in this wretched hovel?
19993said the hag, as she came in at the door;"is your Buttercup at home to- day?"
19993said the hag;"is your Buttercup at home to- day?"
19993said the man;"the cottage is good enough for us; what should we do with a castle?"
19993said the woman,"is not this nice?"
19993then,"says the King,"who are you?"
19993thought the Alligator,"is that all?
19993thought the Jackal to himself,"what can I do?
19993was it as big"--and she puffed herself out--"as big as this?"
19993what am I to do?"
19993what am I to do?"
19993what for?"
19993what has come into your head?
19993what shall I do if I can not find him?"
19993what was that Thumbelina heard?
19993what will become of us?
19993where are they, at all?
19993where can poor Grannie be?
19993where?"
19993who can describe a robe made by the fairies?
19993why art thou the last Llewellyn''s horn to hear?
19993why will you not go and bury them in the Field of Miracles?"
19993young man, art thou come to be one amongst us in this miserable den?"
5245And how cometh it,asked I,"that the Commander of the Faithful trusteth her to go out?"
5245And thou,asked she,"hast thou never been in love?"
5245And what is his story?
5245And what is the cause of this?
5245And what is the story of King Bihkerd?
5245And what is the story of the merchant and his son?
5245And what is the[ cause of] discord, O my mother?
5245And what is thy want?
5245And what,asked El Abbas,"hath Akil done with King Zuheir?"
5245And where is King El Aziz?
5245And who is he, the Devil?
5245And why wilt thou not acquaint me with thy case?
5245As thou wilt,answered she;"but what thinkest thou to do?"
5245Canst thou[ bring me to] lay hold of them?
5245Dost thou remember what he said?
5245Forget him,quoth my censurers,"forget him; what is he?"
5245Hast thou a house?
5245Hath there been feud between us aforetime?
5245How call''st thou this thy dress?
5245How so?
5245How so?
5245How so?
5245How so?
5245How was that?
5245How, then, shall we do with him?
5245I do not want this,answered she, and he rejoined,"What then is it that is called wood, other than this?"
5245Is he her father?
5245Is it lawful,continued she,"in any one that he should slander me and say that I am humpbacked?"
5245My name is Miskeh,replied she, and he said to another,"What is thy name?"
5245No,answered I; and she said,"Art thou for breakfast?"
5245O Saad,asked the king,"whence cometh this man?"
5245O accursed one,''said the Khalif,is this a time for laughter?
5245O elder,added she,"if Muslims and Jews and Nazarenes drink wine, who are we[ that we should abstain from it]?"
5245O king,answered the young man,"how shall they testify of that which they saw not?
5245O my lord,rejoined I,"what story is this that thou desirest of me and of what kind shall it be of the kinds?"
5245O nurse,rejoined the princess,"who is this that presumeth upon me with this letter?
5245O wicked viziers,answered he,"shall a man of understanding renounce hope in God the Most High?
5245Quoth she,Why wilt thou forbid me to drink thereof in thy house?"
5245Sayst thou this to me,asked she,"and thou captain of men?"
5245Since when hath this befallen her?
5245The wife rejoiced in her saying and said to her,And when shall this be?"
5245Well?
5245What is his story?
5245What is it, O king?
5245What is it?
5245What is the cause of this?
5245What is the story of the merchant,asked the king,"and how was his luck changed upon him by the sorriness of his fortune?"
5245What is the taste of love?
5245What is thine advertisement?
5245What is to be done?
5245What sawest thou in this youth[ to make thee trust in him]? 5245 What would the king with me?"
5245Whence hast thou this servant?
5245Where is the contract?
5245Wherefore?
5245Who is Commander of the Faithful?
5245Who is thy father,asked the young merchant,"and what is his condition?"
5245Who was Abou Sabir,asked the king,"and what is his story?"
5245Whom meanest thou?
5245Why so?
5245Why, then, O my lord,asked the nurse,"didst thou conceal the secret of thy rank and lineage and passedst thyself off for a wayfarer?
5245Yes, O Commander of the Faithful,answered she; and he said,"What prompted thee to this?"
5245Yes,answered the draper, and the other said,"Knowest thou what is come of it?"
5245[ FN#10] Then he accosted the young Damascene and saluting him, said to him,Why do I see my lord alone and forlorn?
5245[ FN#186]''And where,''asked Er Reshed,''is this Tuhfeh, who hath not her like in the world?'' 5245 [ FN#86] Quoth the Khalif to those who were present with him,"Know ye what this woman meaneth by her saying?"
5245[ FN#92] Then he turned to the woman and said to her,Is it not thus?"
5245whatever may betideor"will I, nill I"?
5245''And how earnest thou hither?''
5245''And what hast thou in mind of device?''
5245''And what is the deposit?''
5245''And whoso entereth the king''s house and playeth the traitor with him,''continued the king,''what behoveth unto him?''
5245''Canst thou direct me where it is sold?''
5245''Didst thou not hear the first of the speech?''
5245''Hath a pearl then an outward and an inward?''
5245''How much will that be?''
5245''How so?''
5245''How so?''
5245''How then deemest thou we should do?''
5245''Is that thy desire?''
5245''Is there a way for me to see it?''
5245''It is well,''answered the eunuch;''what is it?''
5245''Nay,''answered I;''but tell me[ first], hath there befallen thee aught?''
5245''O fool,''answered she,''how shall I let thee go thy way?
5245''O king,''answered he,''what matter is graver than that which I see?''
5245''O king,''answered they,''what is this boy and what power hath he?
5245''O my lady,''answered the old woman,''sawst thou not the madman who came hither yesterday with the old woman?
5245''O my lord,''answered I,''my name is Sindbad the Sailor;''and he said,''And what countryman art thou?''
5245''O my lord,''answered she,''what am I that thou shouldst kiss my hand?
5245''Out on thee, O dog of the Jinn,''replied she,''knowest thou not thy place?''
5245''Then said he to his officers,''Who is in yonder prison?''
5245''Was it not on such a day, by such a token, and thus and thus?''
5245''What dost thou in this desolate place?''
5245''What is it?''
5245''What is that?''
5245''What is that?''
5245''What is that?''
5245''What is their story?''
5245''What proof hast thou of that?''
5245''What seest thou?''
5245''What was it?''
5245''What was that?''
5245''What was their case?''
5245''What wouldst thou have?''
5245''What[ meanest thou]?''
5245''Who killeth the folk?''
5245''Why didst thou not tell me?''
5245''Yes,''answered he, and the other continued,''And wilt thou buy that which is with me?''
5245''Yes,''answered he, and the prince said to him''What bringeth thee here?''
5245''Yes,''answered he; and she arose and opening the door to the master of the house, said to him,''Where hast thou been?
5245''Yes,''answered she, and he said,''Leave frowardness,[FN#175] for to whom doth it happen to be in the house of Ishac the boon- companion?
5245''Yes,''answered she; and he continued,''Is he not a Jew and is not his ailment indigestion?''
5245''[ FN#102] The Cadi will say,''What is the meaning of thy saying,"The two words are not alike"?''
5245''[ FN#174]''What is the meaning of El Hemca?''
5245''[ FN#200] Then said her father Es Shisban to her,''What is this laughing?''
5245?"
5245?"
5245?"
5245Abideth there husband for me, after the son of my uncle?''
5245After he left her, he found his camels, by her blessing, and when he returned, King Kisra asked him,''Hast thou found the camels?''
5245All charms, indeed, thou dost comprise; so who shall vie with thee And who shall blame me if for love of such a fair I''m sped?
5245And Dukhan answered, saying,''And who abideth in the palace?
5245And En Numan said,"What is thy religion?"
5245And I said,''By Allah, O youth, whence cometh thou?''
5245And Zuheir said,"Whence comest thou and whither wilt thou?"
5245And he answered,"How shall any missay of thy charms, and thou the sun of loveliness?"
5245And he fell to shampooing his hands and feet, whilst the youth called down blessings on him and said,''O my lord, who art thou?
5245And he said to her,''Art thou indeed Tuhfeh?''
5245And he said to her,''How shall we contrive in this affair?''
5245And he said,"Art thou in my presence and bespeakest me with the like of these words?
5245And he said,"Didst thou not bid me bring thee wood?"
5245And he said,"With whom?"
5245And he said,''I know not if my father be dead, and he hath none other heir but myself; and how shall I win to him, seeing I have not a dirhem?''
5245And he said,''Is King Belehwan well?''
5245And he,''What offence can be greater than this?
5245And how Of all things in the world should I forget the love of thee?
5245And my friend said to me,''Behold, we are two, and what can they avail to do with us?''
5245And she answered him, saying,"O dotard, is thy wit like unto my wit?
5245And she said,''Did I not tell thee that she resembleth me and I her, and there is nought to distinguish between us but our clothes?
5245And the king said,''Why didst thou not take somewhat of that which thou sawest of jewels and the like?
5245And the merchant said,''When didst thou give it me?''
5245And the slave- dealer said to him,"What is her name?"
5245And the thief said,"Art thou the Sultan?"
5245And they said,"Is she thy wife by contract[FN#118] or without contract?"
5245And who can tell if ever house shall us together bring In union of life serene and undisturbed content?
5245Art thou overcome with grief for[ the loss of] the treasure or[ for that which hath befallen] the eunuch?''
5245As for the man, he committed his affair to God the Most High, relying upon Him for deliverance, and said in himself,''What is this affair?''
5245As he was about to go away, the cook said to him,''O youth, doubtless thou art a stranger?''
5245At this, the king was troubled and said,''What is to do?''
5245Azadbekht knew not[ of their design] till the noise[ of the invasion] beset his capital city, when he said to his wife Behrjaur,"How shall we do?"
5245But he said to her,''O woman, said I not to thee that he who doth evil shall suffer it?
5245But the governor said in himself,''How shall I go to his father and say to him,"Thy son hath wasted thy money and wantoned it away"?
5245But the man said to him,''How long shall I have patience?''
5245But was it thou who was singing but now?''
5245But, when she and my family knew me, they rejoiced and said to me,"What aileth thee?"
5245By what wickedness cometh this child here?"
5245Can any one part with his life?
5245Canst thou carry her another letter, and with God the Most High be thy requital?"
5245Canst thou not bring us together?''
5245Canst thou not hold thy peace till thou goest forth of the festival and this bride- feast[FN#222] be accomplished?
5245Dost thou want aught?''
5245Doth any praise himself?
5245Doth it not suffice thee that thou hast orphaned his children[FN#94] and slain his men?
5245Doth it not suffice thee that thou hast quelled El Akil''s repute, but thou art minded to quell that of those who sojourn round about him?
5245Fawn of the palace, knowst thou not that I, to look on thee, The world have traversed, far and wide, o''er many a hill and plain?
5245For that I will never again foregather with any''?"
5245Hadst thou wrought deliberately, the false had been made manifest to thee from the true; so where was thy judgment and thy sight?"
5245Hast thou any want unto which thou availest not, so I may endeavour for thee therein and lavish my treasures in quest thereof?"
5245Hast thou not seen this in a dream?''
5245Hast thou skill in the delivering of women?''
5245Hath there betided thee a pain from God the Most High or hath aught of vexation befallen thee?
5245He in turn kissed her hand and called down blessings on her and said,''How deemest thou?
5245He opened the door and entering, saw the youth lying on the bed, whereupon he turned to his wife and said to her,"What doth this youth here?
5245His hospitality pleased the Khalif and the goodliness of his fashion, and he said to him,"O youth, who art thou?
5245His neighbour the Jew met him and said to him,"How comes it that I see thee confounded?"
5245How can it be lawful that this youth should live for a single hour?"
5245How canst thou feel assured of safety, after that which thou hast done?
5245How deemest thou of the affair?"
5245How deemest thou, O King, of fetching El Abbas and drawing up the contract of marriage between Mariyeh and him?"
5245How hast thou wasted all this wealth and now comest telling lies and saying,"The dog hath mounted on the shelf,"and talking nonsense?''
5245How long shall I anights distracted be for love Of thee?
5245How long shall I delay this?
5245How long shall I thus question my heart that''s drowned in woe?
5245How long shall I, in weariness, for this estrangement pine, What while the spies of severance[FN#106] do watch me all the night?
5245How long shall the folk upbraid me on thine account and blame me for delaying thy slaughter?
5245How long th''assaults of grief and woes abide?
5245How long will ye admonished be, without avail or heed?
5245How long, O Fate, wilt thou oppress and baffle me?
5245How many a body hath he slain, how many a bone laid bare?
5245How shall I bring forth my wife?"
5245How shall I go about in quest of a wight whom I know not and whom, if I saw him face to face, I should not know?''
5245How shall he stop all the holes and deliver himself from the vipers?''
5245How shall it be permitted that the daughter of the Cadi of the Muslims abide with a man of the dancers and vile of origin?
5245How wilt thou make out that the right is on thy side?"
5245However, the Khalif accosted him and said to him,"O my brother, did I not say to thee that I would return to thee?"
5245I conjure thee, by Allah, say, was not Aboulhusn with me but now?"
5245I looked at the place[ behind the door] and said,"What is yonder dark place that I see?"
5245I marvelled at her words and said to her,"What wouldst thou have me do?"
5245If thou wert denied this draught, with what wouldst thou buy it?"
5245Indeed thou exceedest: knowest thou not that her sister Wekhimeh is doughtier than any of the Jinn?
5245Indeed, I am bewildered, and how shall I do, and I alone, forlorn?
5245Indeed, thou hast done me kindness, and what is the reason of this?"
5245Is he not vile of origin, the son of thieves?
5245Is it not enough that Aboulhusn is dead, but thou must kill my slave- girl also and bereave us of the two and style me little of wit?"
5245Is it of the sons of Adam or of the Jinn?"
5245Is not the treasure buried in yonder chamber?''
5245Is not this marvellous?''
5245Is she not such an one whose marriage contract we drew up in such a place?"
5245Is there a man of you will come, that I may heal his paint With blows right profitful for him who''s sick for lust of fight?
5245Is this of envy or no?
5245Is[ not] this place pleasant, for all its loneliness and desolation?''
5245It may be here observed that the word keif( how?)
5245Know ye not that the day belongeth to you and the night to us?
5245Know ye not that whoso diggeth a pit for his brother shall fall into it?
5245Knowest thou not that Imlac is of the chiefs of the Jinn?
5245Knowest thou not that he is of the lieutenants of Kundeh ben[ Hisham of the Benou] Sheiban, a man renowned for prowess?
5245Learn to know thyself: hast thou no regard for thy life?''
5245Moreover, he gave him the ornaments of his sword; and Jerir went forth to the[ other] poets, who said to him,"What is behind thee?
5245Next morning, up came the Cadi, with his face like the ox- eye,[FN#104] and said,"In the name of God, where is my debtor and where is my money?"
5245Now Er Reshid was leaning back; but, when he heard this, he sat up and said to her,"By my life,[ is this thou sayest] true?"
5245Now each of them had it in mind to cheat his fellow; so El Merouzi said to Er Razi,''Wilt thou sell me that?''
5245Now he was ware of the king''s love for women; so he said to his wife,''What is this that I see with thee?''
5245O blamer of me for the love of him who denieth his grace, Which be the delightsome of things, but those which the people deny?
5245O thou my inclining to love him that blamest, Shall lovers be blamed for the errors of Fate?
5245On the fourth day, Er Razi said to him,''Know, O my brother, that I purpose to do somewhat''''What is it?''
5245One day my master said to me,''Knowest thou not some art or handicraft?''
5245Presently, he met a friend of his, to whom he discovered his case, and the other said to him,''Art thou not ashamed to talk thus?
5245Presently, there met him a man, a treasure- seeker, and said to him,''Whither goest thou, O youth?''
5245Presently, up came El Merouzi, for the division of the money, and hearing the crying[ of the mourners], said,''What is to do?"

5245Then he turned to another eunuch and said to him,"O my chief,[FN#20] by the protection of God, am I Commander of the Faithful?"
5245Then he turned to the woman and said to her,''And thou, what sayst thou?''
5245Then he went into the harem and gave the rubies to his wife Afifeh, who said to him,"What is the worth of these with thee and with[ other] the kings?"
5245Then he went on, but, before he had gone far, he said in himself,"If I take up the money and spur my horse and forego him, how shall he overtake me?"
5245Then he wept and cried out and said to the prefect,"Where is that ill- omened fellow, who aboundeth in thievery and villainy?"
5245Then let his fellow say,"Knowest thou this for truth?"
5245Then let the other of you ask,"And what is his transgression?"
5245Then one of the crew questioned her, saying,''Whose wife art thou?''
5245Then said El Fezl to the gaoler,"Is there any prisoner left in the prison?"

5245Then said he to Arwa,"What wilt thou that I do with them?"
5245Then said he to Sherik,"What prompted thee to become warrant for him, knowing that it was death?"
5245Then said he to a third,"What is thy name?"
5245Then said he to her,''Shah Khatoun, Shah Khatoun, is this my recompense from thee?''
5245Then said he to me,''O Sindbad, is this king, indeed, such as he avoucheth in this letter?''
5245Then said he to me,''O my friend, hath there befallen thee in thy life aught of calamity?''
5245Then said he to the king,''In what crafts dost thou excel?''
5245Then said one of them to other,"Verily, the king is slain; so with whom do we wage war?
5245Then said she to him,"O my son, was there any one with thee yesternight?"
5245Then said she to him,''When the king saw him and questioned thee of him, what saidst thou to him?''
5245Then said she,"Hath any the right to say of me that I am lophanded?
5245Then said she,"O king, comest thou to a[ watering-]place whereat thy dog hath drunken and wilt thou drink thereof?"
5245Then said she,"Where is the goal of thine intent, so we may know thy news and solace ourselves with thy report?"
5245Then said the Amir to me,"What aileth thee that thou answerest not?"
5245Then said the goldsmith to the prince,''Whence hadst thou these rubies?''
5245Then said the king,"Hast thou a need we may accomplish unto thee?
5245Then said the king,"How long wilt thou beguile us with thy prate, O youth?
5245Then said the magistrate,"How camest thou to bring it[ for sale] to the place whence thou stolest it?"
5245Then said the prince,"Wilt thou play another game?"
5245Then said the wife,''O man, how much do we owe the baker and the greengrocer?''
5245Then she broke out again into song and chanted the following verses:"Forget him,"quoth my censurers,"forget him; what is he?"
5245Then she brought out a rosary and began to tell her beads thereon, and the damsel said to her,''Whence comest thou, O pilgrim?
5245Then she slept awhile and presently awaking, said,"O elder, hast thou what we may eat?"
5245Then she went on before me and I followed her till she came to a lodging- house and said to the housekeeper,"Hast thou an empty chamber?"
5245Then the king acquainted the people[ of his court] with the matter and said to them,''O folk, how deem ye of my looking to the issues of affairs?''
5245Then they took him and carried him to[ their king] Zuheir ben Shebib; and when he came before him, he said to him,"Of which of the Arabs art thou?"
5245Then we questioned him, saying,''Who is thy father?''
5245Then will he say to thee,''Then thou art an ape- leader of the tribe of the mountebanks?''
5245Then, when he had drunken, he said to him,"If thou wert denied the going forth of the draught from thy body, with what wouldst thou buy its issue?"
5245There he saw a man tilling; so he sought guidance of him and the husbandman said,''Art thou a stranger?''
5245Therewith the prefect turned to me and said,"Why dost thou not answer the Cadi?"
5245Therewithal Noureddin''s life was troubled; so he arose and donned his clothes, and his host said,"Whither away this night, O my lord?"
5245Therewithal the king''s chamberlains and officers accosted them and said to them,"What is behind you and what hath befallen you?"
5245They gave not over going till they came up to me, when the woman stopped and said to me,''Hast thou a draught of water?''
5245They saw him weeping and mourning and said to him,''What is thy case and what maketh thee weep?''
5245Thinkest thou to appease my heart with thy prate, whereby the days are spent in talk?
5245This came to Abou Sabir''s knowledge and he said to his wife,''Said I not to thee, O woman, that whoso doth evil, it shall revert upon him?
5245This pleased her and she said to him,"Whence hadst thou this?"
5245Thou art a stranger and a beggar, and what concern hast thou with the king''s health?''
5245To lovers,"What see ye?"
5245To whom save thee shall I complain, of whom relief implore, Whose image came to visit me, what while in dreams I lay?
5245To whom shall I complain of what is in my soul, Now thou art gone and I my pillow must forswear?
5245What art thou that thou shouldst bespeak us thus?
5245What care I If thou have looked on me a look that caused thee languishment?
5245What did ye?
5245What doth this gold profit us?
5245What excuse is left you?"
5245What had it irked them, had they''d ta''en farewell of him they''ve left Lone, whilst estrangement''s fires within his entrails rage amain?
5245What hath befallen thee?"
5245What is come of the troops that were encamped beside my palace?''
5245What is her price in money and how much dost thou ask for her?, Quoth the slave- dealer,''She whom thou mentionest is called Tuhfet el Hemca.
5245What is his offence that he should merit this punishment?
5245What is the cause of this?"
5245What is the pleasance of the world, except it be to see My lady''s face, to drink of wine and ditties still to hear?
5245What is there in the tents?
5245What is there in thee to love?"
5245What is this thou sayst?
5245What is thy story and what maketh thee weep?"
5245What is to do?''
5245What leach such madness can assain or what medicament?
5245What manner of thing is this?''
5245What possessed thee to leave the door open, so that the Devil came in to me and there befell me with him this and that?"
5245What sayst thou?''
5245What shall be our excuse with the king?
5245What shall be our excuse with thee, and thou of the sons of the kings?"
5245What then dost thou counsel me that I should do in this matter?"
5245What then,"continued the young treasurer,"is more grievous than the lack of looking to the issues of affairs?
5245What token, then, hast thou of the truth of thy saying?''
5245What wilt thou have me do now?''
5245When Abou Sabir''s troops saw this, they marvelled and said,''What is this deed that the king doth?
5245When Er Reshid heard this, he was sore chagrined and waxed exceeding wroth and said,"Shall this happen in a city wherein I am?"
5245When I arose in the morning, there came the chamber- woman and said to me,"Hast thou occasion for the bath?"
5245When I saw her make the ablution, I said in myself,"This woman doth on this wise, and shall I not do the like of her?"
5245When Iblis heard this, he gave a cry, to which the earth trembled, and said,''What is to be done?
5245When Nuzhet el Fuad heard this, she started up from her lying posture and said,"How shall we do?"
5245When he heard her voice, he recovered from his swoon and said to her,''Who art thou?''
5245When he named Akil, those who were present were agitated; but Zuheir signed to them with his eyes and said to him,"What is thine errand with Akil?"
5245When he saw this, he was amazed and said to them,"What is to do?"
5245When her husband heard this, he said to her,''What is thy name and what are the names of thy father and mother?''
5245When she awoke, she said to the old man,"O elder, hast thou aught of food?"
5245When she heard this, her wits fled and she would have cried out, but her reason restrained her, and the king said to her,''What is this?
5245When she saw him, she knew him and said to him,''What prompteth the king unto this that he doth?''
5245When she saw the young man, she said to him,"Art thou here?"
5245When such a fever fills the heart, what leach can make it whole?
5245When the damsel heard these verses, she wept till her clothes were drenched and drew near the old woman, who said to her,''Knowest thou such an one?''
5245When the folk saw them on this wise, they came up to them and said to them,''What is this strife between you, and no cause for it?''
5245When the king heard this, he was perplexed and amazed and said to her,''Hast thou a proof that this youth is thy son?
5245When the king heard this, his colour changed and he said to them,''Have ye proof of this?''

5245Whenas he runs, his feet still show like wings,[FN#140] and for the wind When was a rider found, except King Solomon it were?
5245Whence knowest thou him?''

5245With this, the druggist was certified that the house was his house and the wife his wife, and he said,''And what wilt thou do to- day?''
5245With thy rhymes What wouldst of me?
5245Yet how can I let this knavish dog die and lose the money?
5245[ FN#170]?
5245[ FN#173] For not selling me?
5245[ FN#180] With what eye shall I look on him, and indeed, I am he in whom he confided and to whom he hath entrusted his son?
5245[ FN#194] Dost thou know me?''
5245[ FN#223] Where, then, is the worth that in aught with my worth can compare And where is the rank in men''s eyes can be likened to mine?
5245[ FN#22] Then said the woman,''What is the remedy?''
5245[ FN#242] Couldst thou find none on whom to vent thy drunken humour and whom to maltreat save Tuhfeh, more by token that she is a queen?
5245[ FN#257] Heads of families?
5245[ FN#2] i.e., he dared not attempt to force her?
5245[ The thing is settled;] so say the word, how much wilt thou have[ to her dowry]?"
5245["Yes, O Commander of the Faithful,"answered Mesrour] Quoth the Lady Zubeideh, laughing from a heart full of wrath,"Wilt thou not leave thy jesting?
5245[''How so?''
5245],"as it were the thing had not been, and payest down nought for it?''
5245and said to them,''Why have ye broken open my chest?
5245answered I, and he said,"What is that thou hast with thee?"
5245answered she, and he said,"What then saidst thou?"
5245asked Selim and she said,''Is there nothing for it but to slay him?

5245why tarriest thou to make an end of her?
5245women''s tricks?
2032A husband worthy of her,moaned Robin Rue,"and how can I suppose that I am he?
2032A party? 2032 A toy farm?"
2032Ah, have they?
2032All astir, my maids?
2032All?
2032Am I to go with you always, following chance and making no plans?
2032And apples?
2032And are you not? 2032 And are you wedded yet?"
2032And has n''t my story come to its end?
2032And have you returned to us for the final blessing?
2032And is this all?
2032And is this really all?
2032And that our proud lady Rosalind, having, it seems, found a grander castle to live in, has given hers up to young Maudlin?
2032And what is yours?
2032And what of your Gillian?
2032And what shall I give you?
2032And what will you do?
2032And what''s this here?
2032And who will come to it?
2032And whose cause do you serve?
2032And why not quite?
2032Are n''t they? 2032 Are n''t they?"
2032Are n''t you coming? 2032 Are these your handicraft?"
2032Are they all dried up?
2032Are we not all bidding it in?
2032Are you a sailor?
2032Are you certain we shall be out of the orchard to- morrow, Master Pippin?
2032Are you ever honest about anything, Master Pippin?
2032Are you going to pray in one?
2032Are you ill, Hugh?
2032Are you in love?
2032Are you ready?
2032Are you satisfied, Rusty Knight,said he,"with what you have done in Proud Rosalind''s honor?"
2032Are you sure the keys are in the right keyholes?
2032Are you sure? 2032 As much as that?
2032Ay; but what''s that to you?
2032But are you sure you feel better?
2032But did n''t you think I might be a scamp?
2032But how,asked the King,"during my vigils shall I know when midnight is due?"
2032But is it not our own wood?
2032But is this the end?
2032But tell me, if Gillian''s prison were indeed unlocked, would all be well with you for ever?
2032But what about your own supper?
2032But what of the mistress?
2032But when it does know?
2032But when my love did become too strong for my vow, and opened my lips at last,said the King,"why did you run away?"
2032But who brought them?
2032But who will give it?
2032But why did you call me a nuisance?
2032But why did you choose to bathe at midnight?
2032But you do n''t know much about the water, do you?
2032By what name shall we know you?
2032Ca n''t she?
2032Can I have a bit of bread?
2032Can I trust you? 2032 Can nothing save you?"
2032Can you see me now?
2032Can you see?
2032Could any be commoner,said Martin,"than Robin- run- by- the- Wall?
2032Dear Mistress Jennifer,said Martin gently,"why do you weep?"
2032Did I go off again?
2032Did I not say so?
2032Did ever lady have a sorrier champion?
2032Did it?
2032Did n''t it hurt?
2032Did n''t you know?
2032Did n''t you see me look?
2032Did n''t you? 2032 Did she?"
2032Did you come to the mill?
2032Did you fall in the water?
2032Do I like butter?
2032Do I?
2032Do I?
2032Do I?
2032Do YOU know it, boy?
2032Do YOU like butter, Master Pippin?
2032Do children play in it still?
2032Do children play there now?
2032Do n''t they?
2032Do robbers ask leave?
2032Do the women of this land hold themselves so light? 2032 Do these things matter?"
2032Do you call that thing a little worth,said one,"which to us were more than a star plucked out of heaven?"
2032Do you feel them?
2032Do you know tales?
2032Do you know what I should have said? 2032 Do you know what I thought as I saw you coming so bravely and so badly?
2032Do you know what happens to servants who defy their masters?
2032Do you not see how black it is in there? 2032 Do you now?"
2032Do you see the stars?
2032Do you think I am here to bargain? 2032 Do you think so?"
2032Do you want it to be to- morrow so much?
2032Do you? 2032 Does Gillian still sit in her own shadow?"
2032Does she never eat?
2032Does the water burn?
2032Even so?
2032Excuse me, master,said Jane,"but is Nellie, my little Dexter Kerry, doing nicely?"
2032For us?
2032For what does furniture matter as long as Sussex grows bedstraw for ladies to sleep on?
2032For what?
2032From what do you guard her?
2032From whom should I bear her a word?
2032Give it up?
2032Great- Niece,said the Wise Woman,"how can I give you what you already have?
2032Has he his lute with him?
2032Has my daughter stopped weeping yet?
2032Has n''t he asked her to marry him?
2032Have n''t I?
2032Have n''t you been the curse of my life for twenty- one years?
2032Have not the rains done their work?
2032Have you a bigger one?
2032Have you been getting your feet wet in the duckpond again?
2032Have you come from my castle?
2032Have you do drink?
2032Have you ever seen me before?
2032Have you forgotten that she is locked with six keys inside her father''s Well- House?
2032Have you never been there?
2032Have you no other?
2032Have you not found,said Martin,"that after thinking all the morning it is necessary to jump all the afternoon?"
2032Have you seen him?
2032Have you taken cold, Master Pippin?
2032Have you?
2032Have you?
2032How COULD you make fun of me then?
2032How came she to lose them?
2032How can I get on with it?
2032How can I yet? 2032 How can trouble touch us who love each other?"
2032How can you think so?
2032How could I be?
2032How could I help it?
2032How could I know? 2032 How could you not feel them?"
2032How did it happen?
2032How did that come about?
2032How did the pretty go?
2032How do I know what happened to em?
2032How do you know I did not look at the cake?
2032How do you know they do n''t see you?
2032How do you know? 2032 How do you know?
2032How long is it?
2032How shall I go?
2032How should I know? 2032 How should you guess it?"
2032How will these help us?
2032I know they are,whispered Gillian,"but if all men were like Robin Rue, what would become of us?
2032I would like to know if Blossom my Shorthorn is well?
2032I''m not really-- am I?
2032I''m rather bucked about them myself,whispered the first half,"or ought I to say about IT?"
2032If what, Joscelyn?
2032In love''s name,cried Martin Pippin, putting his hands to his head,"what more do you want?"
2032Indeed?
2032Is Pepper your nag''s name?
2032Is a dog got into the orchard, maids?
2032Is all well?
2032Is he coming on a raft?
2032Is he your slave?
2032Is it a man?
2032Is it difficult?
2032Is it not enough that I am your beloved?
2032Is it very gold?
2032Is it,said Martin,"because the grass is not green enough?"
2032Is love then,said little Joan,"so rare a thing in the world?"
2032Is my bread sweet to you?
2032Is my daughter any merrier this morning?
2032Is my daughter come to her mind yet?
2032Is she there yet?
2032Is that the right ending?
2032Is the mess ready?
2032Is the time not yet?
2032Is there one?
2032Is there?
2032Is this what you call better than bread?
2032Is this your palace?
2032Kisses, will ye?
2032Love- tales?
2032MUST my lashes shut because others''do?
2032Maids,said Joscelyn,"what is this coming across the duckpond?"
2032May not lashes have whims of their own?
2032May not people walk late,said she,"as well as work late?"
2032Mine?
2032Must I eat it all, Martin?
2032Must you be playing with meanings even in dreams? 2032 My apple- gold maidens,"said Martin Pippin, leaning on the gate in the bright night,"may I come into your orchard?"
2032My black hair? 2032 My foolish lover, are you amazed that when her hour comes a woman knows not whether she is happy or unhappy?
2032My green maidens,said Martin,"may I not come into your orchard?
2032My rose- white maidens,said Martin,"will you not let me into your orchard?
2032Neither of yourself nor of Ambrose?
2032No, Hobb,said Hugh,"but need we stay here now?"
2032None of us like getting old, do we?
2032Now and then, for a treat?
2032Now you will play for us, wo n''t you?
2032Of what other life will it tell me?
2032Of you? 2032 Of your life on the sea?
2032Oh, ca n''t we die now?
2032Oh, child, why did n''t you tell me?
2032Oh, did I?
2032Oh, did you see? 2032 Oh, do I?"
2032Oh, what is it?
2032Oh, why did n''t you tell me, boy?
2032Oh, why did you come back?
2032Oh, you CAN smile, can you?
2032One day will it be?
2032Or this other powder shall charm him to love you, if he love you not?
2032Pepper, should we go further?
2032Places hold one, do n''t they?
2032Pray how does Lemon, Joscelyn''s Sussex, fare?
2032Pray, Pepper, can this advice be bettered?
2032Promise?
2032Rather have a what?
2032Rough as a porcupine, are n''t I? 2032 Seven minutes at the door, was n''t it?
2032Shall I make something of you? 2032 Shall I never be rid of this swing?"
2032Shall I now, for both times?
2032Shall I tell you, Rusty Knight, what you have got for it? 2032 Shall a man not racket at another man''s wedding?"
2032Shall it be steel?
2032Shall we try elsewhere?
2032Shall we,said Martin,"forego the stories?"
2032Six of them?
2032So they maids have cut too, have they?
2032Something I had-- where''s my clothes?
2032Suppose I should sneeze?
2032Suppose I''d been a cross old woman?
2032Suppose I''d been a king?
2032Suppose you faint again?
2032Tales?
2032Tell me-- WERE you frightened?
2032The sun''s on my face and in my eyes, do n''t you see?
2032Then shall it be some other kind of tale?
2032Then what must I do with this key?
2032Then what of houses?
2032Then why are you idle to- day,sneered Old Gerard,"of all the days in the year?"
2032Then why were you as mum as a fish?
2032Thought better of it?
2032Tis well to be laughing,said Old Gillman,"but have ye heard my daughter laughing yet?"
2032To drown in the floods together?
2032To keep myself from--"Laughing at me?
2032To see her free? 2032 To what better use could you dedicate it?"
2032WASN''T it?
2032Was I?
2032Was n''t it?
2032Was that it? 2032 Was the woman your mother?"
2032Wedded?
2032Well, racketer?
2032Well?
2032Were you?
2032What DID you think when you saw me in the tree? 2032 What about Ballad- Singers, Master Pippin?"
2032What are your friends like?
2032What became of him?
2032What but a kingcup?
2032What cup''s that, boy?
2032What dial''s that?
2032What did you dream of?
2032What did you see?
2032What do any of us?
2032What do you call the commonest?
2032What do you hear?
2032What do you mean by that?
2032What do you require?
2032What does that mean?
2032What does?
2032What drew you there, big man? 2032 What else have you got there?"
2032What else is it?
2032What folly is this?
2032What for?
2032What frightened you? 2032 What has happened?"
2032What has she given you?
2032What have you to sell?
2032What is it called?
2032What is it doing?
2032What is it, child?
2032What is it, child?
2032What is it, you little thing?
2032What is it, you silly thing?
2032What is it? 2032 What is it?"
2032What is this you are telling me?
2032What is yours?
2032What jewels are those?
2032What kind of tales?
2032What lies beyond?
2032What made you stick on in this place?
2032What metal then? 2032 What need of so many words?"
2032What should a King do in a Barn?
2032What sort of advice is this, Pepper?
2032What then?
2032What thing draws you, Red Smith?
2032What was it?
2032What was she like to look at?
2032What will to- morrow''s victor think his due?
2032What will ye buy?
2032What work, dame?
2032What would poor men do without your help?
2032What would you call this but Cow Parsley?
2032What would you choose, Ambrose?
2032What would you do then if you were a maid?
2032What would you do with them?
2032What would you have done?
2032What''s High and Over?
2032What''s amiss with ye?
2032What''s an unfair price for a pretty girl, Master Pippin?
2032What''s that?
2032What''s the matter with you all?
2032What''s the matter?
2032What''s this but nonsense?
2032What''s your will, Queen?
2032What, a bauble for my jewel, too- eager lady?
2032What, none of you?
2032What? 2032 When I told you my name, were you disappointed?"
2032When did Maudlin ever meet reluctance?
2032When is the New Moon?
2032When the old man laughed because you laughed, and you laughed for another reason-- hadn''t I a third reason to laugh? 2032 When you played with the seagull...""Yes?"
2032When, I wonder,said Martin,"will women cease to want to know little things more than big ones?
2032When?
2032Where am I?
2032Where are we going?
2032Where are you bound for, master?
2032Where are you going to?
2032Where are you, my boy, where are you?
2032Where are you, my lamb?
2032Where can you get meat?
2032Where did they come from?
2032Where has that brought us?
2032Where have I seen you before, hag?
2032Where is the bride?
2032Where is the bride?
2032Where to?
2032Where to?
2032Where''s High and Over?
2032Where''s that?
2032Where?
2032Which bit''s that?
2032Which of us is good enough?
2032Which way?
2032Who are you?
2032Who else lives in your palace with you?
2032Who is that?
2032Who is the bride?
2032Who said so?
2032Who should the bride be? 2032 Who''ll buy trinkets?"
2032Who''s burning?
2032Why did n''t you call to me?
2032Why did you come back? 2032 Why did you give them up?"
2032Why did you laugh?
2032Why did you not feel their blows?
2032Why did you put your hand over your mouth?
2032Why did you weep?
2032Why do n''t you have that?
2032Why do n''t you look up, you silly child? 2032 Why do they call him the Rough Master?"
2032Why do ye stare so? 2032 Why do you laugh?"
2032Why do you water the earth?
2032Why is it like that?
2032Why not through the gate like a gal?
2032Why not? 2032 Why not?"
2032Why not?
2032Why not?
2032Why not?
2032Why, Red Boatman,said they,"did you not know that the Queen of Bramber was coming to make merry at Amberley?"
2032Why, lad,said he,"do you not know me again?"
2032Why, neither was I,said Martin;"for did you never hear that cowslips, among all the golden flowers of spring, are the Keys of Heaven?"
2032Why, where have you lived?
2032Why, whither would she follow it?
2032Why? 2032 Why?"
2032Why?
2032Why?
2032Why?
2032Will they ALWAYS be adding and changing this detail and that? 2032 Will they ALWAYS stare over a wall, and if they''re not tall enough to try to stare through it?
2032Will they never be done with disturbing the newts and me? 2032 Will women NEVER let a man make a thing in his own way?"
2032Will women NEVER see what lies under their noses?
2032Will you get supper?
2032Will you have milk?
2032Will you sit in the swing?
2032Will you? 2032 Wise Woman,"he said respectfully,"you know most things, but do you know this-- whether a King should dance or pray or rule in his Barn?"
2032Without the vital tool?
2032Wo n''t it come right?
2032Wo n''t what come right?
2032Wo n''t you?
2032Would n''t she?
2032Would this have distressed you?
2032Would this really content you?
2032Would this satisfy you?
2032Would you like some?
2032Would you, if I misjudged you?
2032YOU to accost so one of my blood?
2032Yes, dear?
2032Yes, you''ve never seen that, have you, child?
2032Yet suppose it were some other end than I set out for?
2032You are a silly, are n''t you?
2032You are a silly, are n''t you?
2032You are there waiting for me, are n''t you, child? 2032 You knew, did n''t you, why it was I had stayed on at the mill?
2032You swear you wo n''t tell?
2032Your brother was it?
2032Your hair used to be quite brown, did n''t it?
2032Your riddle?
2032''And what''s THE News?''
2032( Joscelyn: Why?
2032( Martin: Are you not quite comfortable, Mistress Jane?
2032( Martin: What is it, Mistress Joyce?
2032("Will you be so good, Mistress Jane,"said Martin,"as to sew on my button?"
2032--come to fetch her himself, Martin?"
2032A dream- book, a crystal, a charmed powder that shall make you see your sweetheart in the dark?"
2032A- floating, a- floating, what saw I a- floating?
2032A- floating, a- floating, what saw I a- floating?
2032ALL lovers?--are they green enough?"
2032After a short pause she said timidly,"Are you sore, shepherd?"
2032All the Milkmaids: What is it?
2032Although they say-- Martin: What do they say?
2032Am I not nearly sixteen?
2032Am I?
2032And Harding said,"Will you come over the ferry with me, Proud Rosalind?"
2032And Harding thought,"Is she angry because SHE is not the Queen of the chase?"
2032And Hobb, lifting a wave of her glittering hair and making a rose of it between his fingers, asked,"How can you be jealous of yourself?"
2032And Martin looking down on the top of her smooth little head, which was all he could see of her, said anxiously,"You wo n''t prick me, will you?"
2032And Rosalind answered,"What is your fee, Red Boatman?"
2032And Rosalind stopped and looked at them, longing to say,"The white hart?
2032And Rosalind,"Would HE be the lord who kneels to Queen Maudlin?"
2032And William put his arm about her a little tighter-- because it was there already-- and said,"What might you not wish, beloved?"
2032And a man demanded,"What blood''s good enough to mix with hers, if ours be not?"
2032And a voice from the east shrieked,"What will you have, and lose yourself to have?"
2032And a voice from the south murmured,"What is the wish of your heart?"
2032And a voice from the west sighed,"What is it that life has not given you?"
2032And again he heard a mysterious voice whisper,"How could you keep yourself so secret all these months?
2032And as they pushed and scrambled through the bushes, what do you think they saw?
2032And at the very crisis of the churning a voice in the wind from the north roared in his ear:"What do you want that you lack?"
2032And at this his brother looked up and eyed him childishly, and said"Who is Ambrose?"
2032And did you ever succeed in finding the Murray River?"
2032And for what?
2032And has my daughter taken the right road yet?"
2032And hath her sorrow a name, sweet sir?
2032And he shook his head, adding,"Nay, when the thief and the theft are in collusion, what say is left to the owner of the treasure?
2032And his hand tightened again over hers and he said gravely,"Is it a needle?"
2032And how did she crown you for your fall, Rusty Knight?"
2032And how have you drawn it?
2032And how have you used it?
2032And in her thoughts she was crying,"The last time?
2032And is there still a Wishing- Pool on Rewell and a ferry at Bury?
2032And of a tree''s dreaming who shall speak?
2032And she hid her face on the King''s shoulder, and he tried to kiss her but could not make her look up until he said,"Or even a woman''s waywardness?"
2032And so that''s you, is it?"
2032And still keeping his eyes fixed on Gillian he thrummed and sang-- Toad, toad, old toad, What are you spinning?
2032And the head workman looked at the ruin and her rags and said,"What halls, girl?
2032And the seven weaponless men stood rooted there, and one said,"Where are the dogs?"
2032And then he stopped laughing and said,"Is an echo got into the orchard?"
2032And this pool in the Red Copse, is it hard to find?
2032And what did you say?
2032And what do you do all day long?
2032And what does the happiness or unhappiness of an idle story weigh?
2032And what have you got for it?"
2032And when will Gillian Gillman change her name?"
2032And who can measure fountains?
2032And why does Gillian sigh?
2032And why, the better my shoes the worse your temper?
2032And will you always stand with me here in the loneliness that has been so dark?
2032And would you let any man take your own upon his shoulders, even your own mistakes, and shoulder at last the praise after the blame?"
2032And yet-- One half of the shadow whispered,"Do you like my new corduroys?"
2032And, oh, Jane, why are you sighing?
2032Are not you, Mistress Joscelyn?"
2032Are these things for a hero?
2032Are you all right?
2032Are you still mad?
2032At his next coming Martin inquired,"What is the name of your sorrow?"
2032At that she cried out hotly,"Does not your shop invite trade?"
2032Because the beautiful lady is dead, and how can a love- story be, if half the lovers are dead?
2032Before I opened the door I stood there guessing... And how could I have guessed this?
2032Besides, who does not love fairy- tales?"
2032Bound to, are n''t we?"
2032Boy, is there drink within?"
2032But I say, will patience keep us all from rack and ruin?"
2032But Margaret pushed his arm away and rose restlessly to her feet, and paced up and down, muttering,"What do I care for these boys?
2032But Old Gillman thought he said,"What''s THAT?"
2032But Young Gerard raised himself a little, and groaned,"The Wildbrooks-- are they going to the Wildbrooks?"
2032But Young Gerard sprang upon one, and gripped him by the shoulder and shook him, and for the third time cried:"Where is the bride?"
2032But all the same I wish-- Martin: You wish?
2032But are you better now?
2032But as though her thoughts had taken voice of themselves, she heard the sharp questions uttered aloud,"What white hart, chatterers?
2032But at what price would you sell Joscelyn?"
2032But certain words of the stranger had pricked his attention, and now he said:"Where is Gay Street?"
2032But did the story please you?
2032But if you look so fair from the hilltops, what must you appear from the very sky?"
2032But in what have I exceeded?
2032But oh, if you appear so beautiful from this summit, what must you appear from the summit of the clouds?"
2032But on this day he says, News?
2032But shall I not play a little on my lute?
2032But shall I not sing you a tune you may dance to?
2032But since you find the hours so tedious, will you not let me sing and play to you upon my lute?
2032But suppose it were more than seven days?"
2032But surely he had heard her?
2032But tell me, if you can, what should a King do in a Barn?"
2032But twas a Billinghurst lad got her, d''ye see?"
2032But what business have we to be choosing presents?
2032But what does it matter how she looked?
2032But what has she given you in exchange for what she has taken from you?"
2032But what''s to- day?"
2032But where do you live, then, that you''ve never seen the sea?
2032But why am I sitting on-- Why am I sitting here?
2032But why are they coming here?"
2032But you, did you look at me?"
2032CAN''T you say it louder?"
2032Ca n''t you see I''m busy?"
2032Can I ever?
2032Can I leave you?
2032Can I sleep by your hearth to- night?"
2032Can you make me sure that you need me?
2032Can you talk straight, Jessica?
2032Combe Ivy''s mother?"
2032Could n''t he see even now that it had once been as black as jet?
2032Could two things more antagonistic conclude in union?
2032Could you not find it in your heart, Mistress Jessica, to put up with a Thatcher?"
2032Daughter, have you considered that he is a lord?"
2032Did Hugh bring him home?
2032Did I not say Hobb had a loving heart?
2032Did I sigh?
2032Did he feel nothing?
2032Did n''t you know then?"
2032Did n''t you know?"
2032Did n''t you know?"
2032Did not Rosalind''s wishes come true, and can there be magic without a magician?
2032Did you ever watch them at it?
2032Did you guess too on the other side?"
2032Did you not see her come up the green hillside with singing and dancing?
2032Did you tell her you fell when you came to her, crownless?
2032Did you think I was a scamp?"
2032Do n''t I know?
2032Do n''t you ever smile or laugh, child?"
2032Do not you, Mistress Joscelyn?"
2032Do the wildflowers not know?"
2032Do we not look like drowned men?
2032Do you know?
2032Do you know?
2032Do you not love nuts and cherries on a cake?"
2032Do you not remember where you lost them?"
2032Do you think it''s with our tongues we tell each other things?
2032Do you think, Mistress Jane, if you sat in the swing I should think twice, or even once, before giving it a push?"
2032Do you want your nag shod?"
2032Does he remember it is his birthday?
2032Does the grass grow high enough by the swing for you to pluck me two blades?
2032Fairy ships rocking with pink sails and white Smoothly as swans on a river of light Saw I a- floating?
2032Five of the Milkmaids: Oh, what?
2032For did not a young lifetime lie behind them, and did they not foresee a longer life ahead, and between lovers must not all be told and dreamed upon?
2032For had Margaret not done ill, who would have discovered how well Hobb could do?
2032For how can what is immortal depend on what is mortal?
2032For how could it be otherwise, seeing that he was a shepherd and she a lord''s daughter?
2032For it is six months now since I tasted water, and how can a man follow his business who is fuddled day and night with Barley Wine?
2032For one is something and the other nothing, and what in the very nature of things could be more antagonistic than these?
2032For suppose Peter had never returned, or when he did she had found him dead in the tree?
2032For to tell you the truth we have heard that nothing but six love- tales will wash from her mind the image of--""Of whom?"
2032For was this Heriot?
2032For who can pronounce upon anything but a plain truth or a plain falsehood?
2032For who could have divined reality to be the illusion and dreams the truth?
2032For who could have suspected that the Lad was a Woman?
2032For who would have imagined the young Shepherd to be in reality a lord?
2032Four of the Milkmaids: What then?
2032From leagues away she heard him whispering,"Child, can you help yourself a little?"
2032Gillman: What d''ye say to the King''s own cup?
2032Gillman: What d''ye think?
2032Gold?"
2032Harding glanced to and from the scornful tawny girl and said,"Well?"
2032Has he seen Hugh?
2032Has she given you a gift?"
2032Have these ever been to Open Winkins?"
2032Have you any more questions?"
2032Have you not had a lifetime of gardens and roses which you have brought to perfection?
2032Have you really got a Great- Aunt, and where does she live?
2032Have you seen Heriot?"
2032Have you some milk for me?"
2032Have you the hilt too?"
2032He looked across at the women and raised his voice to ask,"Did ye come through the floods?"
2032Helen looked at him and said slowly,"It will be, wo n''t it?
2032Helen said slowly,"Why did you ask me for bread?"
2032Hobb said,"Will you not tell me what makes you unhappy?"
2032How CAN this be the end?
2032How DARE you leave this story where it is?
2032How can I be jolly when my story upsets you?
2032How can I tell what of her?
2032How can it be, with him on one side of the door and her on the other?
2032How can she stop in a place like this?
2032How can the children be expected to remember?
2032How can there be barriers between us any more?"
2032How can you want to go there?
2032How come you to be so masterful a smith?
2032How could I dream it would be as quick for you as for me?"
2032How could I have been so deceived?)
2032How could I speak to you?
2032How could he ever have thought her hair was brown?
2032How could you tell stories else?"
2032How dare I?
2032How dare YOU cry your eyes out because my lovers had an unhappy ending?
2032How dare YOU have us all under your thumb?
2032How dare YOU play the Gorgon to Gillian?
2032How does your cherry- tree?"
2032How else can we allay our doubts and our confusions and our sorrows if you who are wise, and see motives so clearly, will not give us the key?
2032How is it that we can not see the wonder of our surroundings until we gaze upon them from afar?
2032How is it that when I possess you I know you not as I know you now?
2032How long did you hear me coughing?
2032How long have you been in danger?"
2032How often, by the way, have you saved a lady''s life?"
2032How old are you?
2032How old are you?
2032How shall we ever get back to Combe Ivy, and warmth and drink and comforts?
2032How will you be able to sleep to- night with a hair on your conscience?
2032How?
2032However can girls keep secrets so long?"
2032However, I suppose they must be indulged in little things, lest--""Lest?"
2032I never told you, did I?"
2032I should have fancied that, seeing the dear sweetheart had hung the veil over her face, she might-- Martin: Yes?
2032I thank fortune, I''ll be quit of you tomorrow-- What''s that to- do in the valley?"
2032I''ve never thanked you, have I?"
2032If I had a secret-- but I have not-- do you think I would trust it to a man?
2032If a lump of chalk rolled under his shoe he blanched and cried,"What''s that?"
2032If she will not go to sleep in heaven to- night, why on earth should we?
2032In the middle of the earth?"
2032In the swing he saw a shadow-- or was it two shadows?
2032Is he hurt, or hungry?
2032Is it the boldness of the boughs?
2032Is it the dancing of the leaves in the wind?
2032Is it the same thing that opens your lips and peeps through the doorway and runs away again?"
2032Is it true that in April the country north of the hills is filled with lakes?"
2032Is n''t it?
2032Is n''t it?"
2032Is the case so bad?"
2032Is this keeping a secret?
2032Is this mill still to be found on the Sidlesham marshes?
2032Is your cherry- tree in flower yet, Shepherd?"
2032It was Where''s my six yards of dimity?''
2032Jane: And if they did not, what became of them?
2032Jane: And what about the ring and the girdle and the circlet and the silver gown?
2032Jane: Did you?
2032Jane: I was just about to break off the thread when you-- Martin: When I what?
2032Jane: Mine?
2032Jane: Or of foxes running in gloves?
2032Jane: The key?
2032Jane: Then how can a good song be told from a bad?
2032Jane: What did he have in his box?
2032Jane: What was her name?
2032Jane: What?
2032Jane: Where are your manners, Master Pippin?
2032Jane: Who disturbed the swing, pray?
2032Jennifer: It is t- t- too old, is n''t it?
2032Jennifer: Oh, is this true?
2032Jennifer: They say women cannot-- cannot-- Martin: Can not?
2032Jennifer: W- w- w- w- why, Master Pippin?
2032Jennifer: What is the jewel like in the toad''s head, Master Pippin?
2032Jennifer: What was the end of the Rough Master of Coates?
2032Jennifer: Which of the answers to the King''s riddle was the right one?
2032Jennifer: Who has punished you?
2032Jessica: Did I?
2032Jessica: Did I?
2032Jessica: Did not the lovers drown in the floods?
2032Jessica: Have you gone mad, Master Pippin?
2032Jessica: How do YOU know?
2032Jessica: How do you know it upsets me?
2032Jessica: Or what if, by some unlucky chance, he had never come to the forge at all?
2032Jessica: Was it possible, Jane, that YOU could be deceived as to the conclusion of this love- story?
2032Jessica: What did you think of this story, Jane?
2032Jessica: What happened to the cake?
2032Jessica: What is your opinion of this tale, Jane?
2032Jessica: What''s nineteen, or even twenty, in a man?
2032Jessica: Who does n''t?
2032Jessica: Why-- why!--where else would it be?
2032Jessica: You thought I was going to beg the question-- didn''t you, Martin?
2032Jessica:( Why?)
2032Joan and Joyce and Jennifer and Jessica and Jane and Joscelyn, will you come to my party in the Apple- Orchard?"
2032Joan( whispering very shyly): Why must the young King join a Brotherhood?
2032Joan: But had not he a-- mustache?
2032Joan: But, Master Pippin!--why must the poor sweetheart be punished?
2032Joan: Or of butterflies going in ones?
2032Joscelyn, how old are you?
2032Joscelyn: Have you a corset- lace of yellow silk?
2032Joscelyn: How could it be two people''s fault?
2032Joscelyn: How dare you ask me?
2032Joscelyn: How dare you say it''s with my help?
2032Joscelyn: I?
2032Joscelyn: What ABOUT their faces?)
2032Joscelyn: What is the other thing?
2032Joscelyn: What will you give me?
2032Joscelyn: Why seven?
2032Joyce: Is it a little thing?
2032Joyce: Oh, did I say so?
2032Joyce: Then why did you give them to Young Gerard?
2032Joyce: What dresses do they wear?
2032Joyce: What makes you say so?
2032Joyce: What of the four jewels?
2032Joyce: Who was the lovely lady, his mother?
2032Joyce: Why, what do I owe you?
2032Lal, Lal, where is Hugh?"
2032Look at this one-- you''re a beauty all right, are n''t you, my pretty?
2032Martin, is it very wicked to poach?"
2032Martin: Am I to believe you?
2032Martin: And can you think of two things at once?
2032Martin: And what of your thoughts?
2032Martin: And wo n''t you give me the key?
2032Martin: Are you certain it is the same hair?
2032Martin: Because how else can the clouds which overshadow our stories be cleared away?
2032Martin: Because you dreaded lest Hobb''s rose was blighted for ever?
2032Martin: Dear Mistress Jane, where were your eyes?
2032Martin: Dear Mistress Jessica, did I say it was his left cheek?
2032Martin: Dear Mistress Joscelyn, is it my fault?
2032Martin: Dear Mistress Joscelyn, why are you so agitated?
2032Martin: Dear Mistress Joyce, what has love to do with death?
2032Martin: Dear, dear Mistress Joscelyn, what more is there to be told?
2032Martin: Did I?
2032Martin: Did I?
2032Martin: Did he really say that?
2032Martin: Did he?
2032Martin: How can I say, Mistress Jennifer?
2032Martin: How could it be anything else?
2032Martin: How long did it take you to discover my paltry ruse?
2032Martin: I hope, Mistress Joscelyn, you found my story worthy of study?
2032Martin: Is it not as good a number as another?
2032Martin: Is it too late to ask?
2032Martin: Is n''t it?
2032Martin: Is this possible?
2032Martin: MEN say so?
2032Martin: May I have my apple?
2032Martin: Men say so?
2032Martin: Nearly?
2032Martin: No?
2032Martin: No?
2032Martin: Please, Mistress Jane, are you in a temper?
2032Martin: Put in your tongue, or-- Jessica: Or what?
2032Martin: Red wine?
2032Martin: So do lots of things, do n''t they?
2032Martin: Then tell me this-- what is your quarrel with men?
2032Martin: They look quite green, do n''t they?
2032Martin: Too old for what?
2032Martin: Two things?
2032Martin: Was it a sigh?
2032Martin: Were you not about to fall again?
2032Martin: What in fine, What wine then?
2032Martin: What is it, then, you love in an apple- tree?
2032Martin: What shall we drink of when we sup?
2032Martin: What would that matter?
2032Martin: What''s the drink?
2032Martin: Which was?
2032Martin: White wine?
2032Martin: Who began it?
2032Martin: Who would n''t?
2032Martin: Why not?
2032Martin: Why should you be?
2032Martin: Will you tell me?
2032Martin: Wine?
2032Martin: Yellow wine?
2032Martin:( with great concern): Are you better, Mistress Jane?
2032Maybe you think my Jill has her share of looks?
2032Might one, by going to Rackham Hill, see this same cherry- tree and this same shed?
2032Must things be ALL dark or ALL light?"
2032Must we be punished for what we ca n''t help?"
2032My serving- wench?"
2032My story?
2032Now at first Hobb thought to pluck the serpent from her breast, but then he said,"Of what use to destroy the children of evil?
2032Of all the lands and life I''ve never seen, and dream of all wrong?
2032Of storms and islands and flashing birds, and strange bright flowers?
2032Of the countries over the water?
2032Of what hunt are you talking?"
2032Oh, Margaret, did you think I had another love?"
2032Oh, Pepper, how could you be so careless?
2032Oh, are you here?
2032Oh, but first, I take it you love apple- trees?
2032Oh, did n''t you understand?
2032Oh, how can you say so?
2032Oh, if I had guessed you meant that, do you suppose for a moment that I would have--?
2032Oh, when joy is so great that it has come full circle with pain, what wonder that laughter and weeping are one?"
2032Oh, you on my earth and I on your ocean, how shall we meet?"
2032Old Gerard said,"What if I was?"
2032Or again the fruit that ripens of the flower amongst the leaves on the boughs?
2032Or perhaps the loveliness of the flower in spring?
2032Or was it my dream, my dream only-- who knows?-- As frail as a snowflake, as flushed as a rose, I saw a- floating?
2032Out upon all love- charms!--And what will she have that sits crouched in the Well- House?
2032PRELUDE TO THE FIRST TALE"And now,"said Martin Pippin,"what exactly do you require of me?"
2032Peter stroked his bird and whistled his tune and stopped abruptly and said,"Will you marry me, Helen?"
2032Please wo n''t you tell us how it all ended?"
2032Please, what are you counting?"
2032Round?
2032Round?
2032Shall I, child?"
2032Shall she be shut in a dungeon?
2032Shall she be thrown before elephants?
2032Shall she be whipped for her theft?
2032She felt his lips on her hair and heard him whisper,"You''re not frightened of me, are you, child?
2032She looked at him anxiously and cajolingly and said,"You are not going away?"
2032She looked up...."What''s your name?"
2032She said eagerly,"A boat?
2032She shook her head, and he pulled at his grass whispering-- Jennifer, Jessica, Jane, Joan, Joyce, Joscelyn, Gillian--""And the last one?"
2032She turned then, whispering,"How can I go with you?
2032She will not stop and ask for a cup of milk, or say, Let me see the young lambs, or say, Is your cherry- tree in flower yet, shepherd?
2032Sir, have you considered that she is a gardener''s child?
2032So he called louder:"What?"
2032So if I should let a woman help me, why not you a man?"
2032So please would n''t he tell them a story?
2032So this fellow said,"Is that all?"
2032So what could I do but whistle mine to the winds?
2032South they went, with the great Downs ahead of them, and who knew what beyond?
2032Suddenly her mouth quivered and she cried passionately,"What''s the use?"
2032Suppose e''er a one of them Refuses to be we d?
2032THE LADIES O if you play a Serena, singer, How can that harm the Emperor''s Daughter?
2032THE LADIES O if you play us a Roundel, singer, How can that harm the Emperor''s Daughter?
2032THE LADIES O if you play us an Alba, singer, How can that harm the Emperor''s Daughter?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my apple- gold lady, But will you not hear a Serena, lady?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my apple- gold lady, May I come into your orchard, lady?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my rose- white lady, But will you not hear a Roundel, lady?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my rose- white lady, May I come into your orchard, lady?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my spring- green lady, But will you not hear an Alba, lady?
2032THE WANDERING SINGER Lady, lady, my spring- green lady, May I come into your orchard, lady?
2032Tell me, if you please, what is your quarrel with girls?"
2032That is Lionel''s right before ours, for is n''t his birthday next month?
2032That no man in a love- tale should be wiser or braver or more beautiful or more happy than the hero; or how can he be the hero?
2032The Rough-- did you see his eyes when you--?
2032The Shepherd looked at this strange pair and said surlily,"What want ye?"
2032The miserable crew broke out into plaints and questions--"Have you no fire?
2032The murmur and the doubt went round,"Is it the Rusty Knight?"
2032The satin Lords and Ladies Are all dressed up so fine, But if you do not skim and churn How can they dine?
2032The tenth time this happened Martin said:"What keeps your lashes open, Mistress Joyce, when your comrades''lie tangled on their cheeks?
2032Then Ambrose looked at him with apprehension, and said in a low voice,"Hobb, what have you lost?"
2032Then Hobb said to Margaret,"What place is this?"
2032Then Hobb tried to soothe and comfort him, asking him little questions in a coaxing voice--"Where has the child been?
2032Then Martin looked down at the patch on his shoe saying,"And tell me now, if you knew Gillian happily we d, would you ask nothing more of life?"
2032Then Martin said,"Who cares?"
2032Then Maudlin stamped her foot as a butterfly might, and cried,"Where is this lady whom you keep as hidden as your face?"
2032Then from his pouch he snatched a crust of bread and flung it to her, and said,"Proud Rosalind, will you stoop for your supper?"
2032Then in the autumn the Squire said to the Wanderer,"Who can live on flowers and rings?
2032Then she asked,"What is that funny tree by the door?"
2032Then she said faintly:"Is it my boy?"
2032This was surely Jessica; but who was the first speaker?
2032This would have been a lark thirty years ago, would n''t it?
2032Three of the Milkmaids: What thing?
2032Two of the Milkmaids: What catastrophe, pray?
2032Under the Ring?"
2032Viola said,"Had you not run away the week before?
2032Was even Euclid impervious to midges?
2032Was it because he would not let her?
2032Was it that her longing had been satisfied?
2032Was n''t I plain wi''her mother?"
2032Water?
2032We must always stand by the truth, do n''t you think?
2032Were you?"
2032What DID you think?"
2032What about my button?
2032What are you looking at?"
2032What can I do for you in such a home?"
2032What can I do for you?''
2032What can I give you, Thea, I, a shepherd?"
2032What can a man know who lives all his life on a hill with pewits for gossips?"
2032What can a stupid little boy know about it?"
2032What can words ever tell?
2032What d''ye say, lads?''
2032What did I want wi''a minx about the place?"
2032What did YOU guess?"
2032What did the young King look like?
2032What did you see when you got there?
2032What do you mean?"
2032What do you mean?"
2032What do you want with them?
2032What does a man do with a secret?
2032What does it matter where we came from by night?

2032What was I sighing for?
2032What was the beginning of your quarrel with men?

2032What would she lose by opening the door?
2032What would unsettle me?
2032What''s your name?"
2032What''s your name?"
2032What, Mistress Joscelyn, was the conclusion you expected?
2032When I came every April to ask for your cherry- tree, what did it matter to me that it was not in bloom?
2032When he had done Martin Said,"Will you go traveling, Gillian?"
2032When it was burned she asked very low,"Will you be lonely?"
2032When no one has ever needed you, how can you believe...?
2032Where are you-- where are you?
2032Where can it be?"
2032Where could she find a shore?
2032Where did he get this pretty, wonderful toy?
2032Where did you get all this knowledge?
2032Where do these beasts come from?"
2032Where''s my bag of comfits?
2032Which among YOU would spurn my kiss?"
2032White clouds at eventide blown to and fro Lightly as bubbles the cherubim blow, Saw I a- floating?
2032Who ever heard of cuckoos flying in shoes?
2032Who helped you tell this one?
2032Who lives here with you?"
2032Who taught you to do this?"
2032Who would have daughters when he might have sons?
2032Who''ll drink of it now?"
2032Who''s the Rough Master of Coates?"

2032Why ca n''t you leave me in peace?"
2032Why did I sigh, Jane?
2032Why did he run away and leave us?
2032Why did n''t you tell me your name?"
2032Why did you never tell me who you were?
2032Why did you run away from me a week ago?
2032Why did you sit six months in the Well- House weeping for love?"
2032Why do n''t you look at me, dear?"
2032Why do n''t you?"
2032Why do two people make light?
2032Why do you live as a black Lad all the week and turn only into a white Woman on Saturdays?
2032Why does a black cloud have an edge of light?
2032Why does a blackbird have white feathers in his body?
2032Why have you tormented me for a whole month?

2032Why should I make her hate me?"
2032Why was the Woman a woman on Saturday night and a lad all the rest of the week?
2032Why were you beating the boy?"
2032Why were you disturbed?
2032Why were you so hard to please about the shoeing of Pepper?
2032Why when I had you did you not hold me by force, and tell me what you were?
2032Why will you keep on saying I''m things I''m not?"
2032Why, even if I were a maid like yourselves, do you think I''d give fate the chance to set me on my husband''s cross- knees for the rest of my life?"
2032Why?
2032Why?
2032Will it be to- night, do you think?"
2032Will that tree at the other end hold?"
2032Will they ONLY know that a thing has come to its end when they see it making a new beginning?
2032Will you be with me always?"
2032Will you chance it?"
2032Will you come again?"
2032Will you give me your key to Gillian''s prison?
2032Will you leave everything else but me to chance?
2032Will you, because I have answered many questions, now answer one?
2032Will you?"
2032With one of her quick changes Margaret frowned and answered,"Why is the black yew set with little lamps?
2032Would the lambs be brought alive into the world?
2032Would the sheep get their straw?
2032Would you keep a garden or a baby so?
2032Yet there are still a few things you might do if-- Jennifer: Oh, if?
2032Yet who would wish her, or any woman, to do ill?
2032You always will be, wo n''t you?"
2032You knew what it was that held me, and why I could never leave it?"
2032You know that, do n''t you?"
2032You never will be, will you?"
2032You''re full of storms, are n''t you?"
2032You''re old, like the withered branch of a tree, but did you not see with your old eyes, and hear with your old ears?
2032You''ve seen the threads spiders spin on blackened furze that gypsies have set fire to?
2032Young Gerard whispered,"Why are you crying?"
2032and Jennifer murmured"How could you?"
2032and what have you done?"
2032and where are these fathers?
2032and who are you?"
2032and who the old crone?
2032are they?
2032are you going in a boat?"
2032are you not ashamed to offer us a broken gift?
2032are you sure of that?
2032cried Joscelyn,"have you among your charms one that will make a maid fall OUT of love?"
2032cried she, shaken with new dreams,"what would I not give to the man who would strike a blow for our house?"
2032d''you think I''ve the four quarters of heaven in my lungs, or what?"
2032did n''t you?"
2032do you hear?
2032do you truly love me?
2032do you-- do you-- do you--?"
2032even for the proof of his, or any man''s, good?
2032from one, and Have you my coral necklace?''
2032from the children; and I ca n''t wait for my ivory fan?''
2032have you gone mad?
2032have you no food?
2032he cried dismayed,"how has this happened, and where?
2032he cried,"when will ye come into your senses and out of the Well- House?"
2032he cried,"when will ye learn that old heads are wiser than young ones?"
2032he exclaimed,"when will ye give up this child''s whim to learn by experience, and take an old man''s word for it?"
2032he implored,"when will ye think better of it, and save an old man''s life?"
2032he shouted,"when will ye make the best of a bad job and a solid man of your dad again?"
2032he whispered,"why do you appear most fair and most desirable now that I am about to lose you?
2032how can I take it with my hands on the ropes?"
2032how dare you?
2032how do you expect it to stay there while I swing?"
2032if you are so wonderful from these great hills, what must you be from the greater hills of air?"
2032in what way should I discover you from heaven itself?"
2032no coverings?"
2032of caravans and towers of ivory?
2032of haunted caverns and deserted temples?
2032oh, my heart, is a month much to ask when you and I found each other but an hour ago?
2032or because the thing she wished to find in him was not really there?
2032said Jennifer anxiously,"we surely are to have a story to- night?"
2032said Martin Pippin,"am I never to have my apple?"
2032said she,"and will it never be?
2032sang she, ere fall of even Shall I not be we d O?
2032she said in scorn,"what should they profit my fathers''house?
2032they cries, and me the loudest,''to whom?''
2032was ever so giddy a statement?
2032what is it?"
2032what was the letter you threw with the Lady- peel?"
2032what was the name on the eighth floret of grass?"
2032what will a Queen do in a Barn?"
2032what''s the news?''
2032what?"
2032when I saw you at the door?"
2032when you laugh I must-- I must--""Yes?"
2032where''s my hundreds and thousands?''
2032who has been your schoolmaster?
2032why ca n''t these young things be plain and say what they want, and get it?
2032why do you bother me so about an old key?
2032why is my silver ring all chased with little apples?"
2032why?
2032why?--if you were n''t frightened?
2032will they NEVER be done with disturbing the newts and me?
2032you Rough Master of Coates, what are you like, what are you like?"
2032you mean my brown hair, do n''t you?"
27200''And why did you leave her?
27200''But where do babies come from, then?'' 27200 ''How do we make it?''
27200''Shall I be crowned now?'' 27200 ''Shall I go with you?''
27200''Well, do you remember?'' 27200 ''What are you looking at?''
27200A writer? 27200 Ah, ah,"said an old hunter,"he has kissed Annette, has he?
27200Ah,said she,"what bird of ill omen art thou?"
27200Am I looking at my own image in the deep water?
27200Am I not just as good as that great creature yonder, who is waited upon and brushed, and has food and drink placed before him? 27200 And can I not obtain rest in the grave for you?"
27200And how do you think men appreciate this poetry? 27200 And how?"
27200And is not our play just as good as those which the others have in the real theatre?
27200And now the old Pipe- head replies:''Though I''m all ear, Very stupid I appear: Where''s my humor?
27200And pray what do you want?
27200And pray what was his profession and his standing in respectable society?
27200And she has had just as much this morning already?
27200And so he spoke to you in that way, did he, my child?
27200And the crow?
27200And then,asked the fir- tree, trembling through all its branches,"and then what happens?"
27200And what can the next daughter do?
27200And what did they say? 27200 And what did you receive?"
27200And what didst thou see?
27200And what else have you done?
27200And what has become of the little elder- tree mother?
27200And what next?
27200And what will the young ones say to it, I wonder?
27200And when are they coming?
27200And when will Spring come?
27200And who was Little Christina?
27200And who was my father?
27200And whom do you love?
27200Are they the same kind of beings as you and I?
27200Are those the duck''s children swimming here?
27200Are those the high mountains I have heard spoken of?
27200Are we now in the garden of paradise?
27200Are we to sit here forever?
27200Are you an artist?
27200Are you going to travel far?
27200Are you ill? 27200 Are you mad?"
27200Are you really going away so soon?
27200Are you sure you are very grateful for it?
27200Boys,said the old man,"a hole goes in, and a hill stands out; have you no eyes in your heads?"
27200But can you not give little Gerda something to help her to conquer this power?
27200But flowers can not dance?
27200But have you anything you can roast it in? 27200 But how can I get through the little mouse- hole in the floor?"
27200But how can one flower tell another? 27200 But how did the little fellow get his wet feet?"
27200But how do you know all this?
27200But how is it you did not break your neck?
27200But if she were to say she was sorry, and ask pardon, and promise never to do so again?
27200But if you take away my voice,said the little mermaid,"what is left for me?"
27200But may we not punish those naughty boys?
27200But must we not all here on earth give up our best parts to others, and offer as much as lies in our power? 27200 But my washing yonder?"
27200But now, if I have been lying the whole winter in the moor,said the swallow,"and suppose I slept the whole time, would that be taken into account?"
27200But should I in that case still retain my memory?
27200But the beautiful thyme of last summer, where is that? 27200 But the naughty boy, who began the song first, what shall we do to him?"
27200But what am I to do, down there in the tree?
27200But what are they?
27200But what did you see? 27200 But what is this change?
27200But what shall we do for sauce?
27200But what was the something more of which you spoke just now?
27200But when will spring come?
27200But where is the little blue flower that grows by the water?
27200But where will you put them?
27200But wherever did you get all these fine beasts?
27200But why did you come up again,said Great Claus,"if it was all so beautiful down there?
27200But why does the horse have golden shoes?
27200But, by what time can I be one?
27200But,said little Ida,"is there no one there to hurt the flowers for dancing in the king''s castle?"
27200Can I be of any service to you?
27200Can I believe it?
27200Can I stay here forever?
27200Can children go to these balls?
27200Can no one else do this?
27200Can one not persuade them to live in peace and quietness, so that each one may mind his own business?
27200Can the Snow Queen come in here?
27200Can the flowers from the Botanical Gardens go to these balls?
27200Can the professor understand the signs?
27200Can you find that out?
27200Can you lay eggs?
27200Can you never get beyond asking about that?
27200Can you raise your back, or purr, or throw out sparks?
27200Can you tell me anything about the poetry of the future?
27200Can you tell me how the Will- o''-the- Wisps deport themselves, and how they behave? 27200 Could he conjure up the evil one?"
27200Darest thou to follow me?
27200Dear me, what have they been erecting here?
27200Did I not drown you just now?
27200Did I not say so?
27200Did not a star fall? 27200 Did you hear him read aloud what I had written down?"
27200Did you hear what was said? 27200 Do n''t make such a long story of it,"said the mother of the winds;"what sort of a place is Bear''s Island?"
27200Do n''t you know me? 27200 Do n''t you know what is the matter with them?"
27200Do n''t you see that they are feathers, such as I wear and you will wear too? 27200 Do we meet here?
27200Do you ask nothing more than that?
27200Do you call that a shilling?
27200Do you call this beautiful? 27200 Do you hear?
27200Do you imagine this is the whole world?
27200Do you know any one here with whom I could lodge cheaply?
27200Do you know me? 27200 Do you know only one story?"
27200Do you know,said the shadow,"that in the house opposite to you lived the most glorious creature in the world?
27200Do you not hear?
27200Do you not love me the best of them all?
27200Do you notice this, little Anna?
27200Do you recollect that?
27200Do you remember this?
27200Do you remember what the flowers told you to say to me?
27200Do you remember,said the canary,"the pretty maidens who used to dance in the tents that were spread out beneath the sweet blossoms?
27200Do you repeat your invitation, General?
27200Do you see all this?
27200Do you see how she swallows the peas? 27200 Do you see now that my bow was not spoilt?"
27200Do you see that pouter pigeon?
27200Do you see the shimmer of the rainbow, which unites earth to heaven?
27200Do you see,said the sunbeam,"do you see the beauty of these flowers?
27200Do you think I should get any sea- cattle if I went down to the bottom of the river?
27200Do you think he cares for the money? 27200 Do you think so?"
27200Do you think so?
27200Do you want to be put in the sack, both of you?
27200Do you weep for me?
27200Do you wish to see golden fruit?
27200Does a stove look beautiful?
27200Does he live with a princess?
27200Does it not smell delicious?
27200Does no one give any more? 27200 Does not my suit fit me marvellously?"
27200Does the gentleman wish to be ferried over the Holm?
27200Every- day stories?
27200Father, dear,said the youngest daughter,"may I now hear who our high- born visitors are?"
27200Felicita,she said,"what are you doing to the child?"
27200For each man?
27200Good day, emperor,he said,"could you not give me some employment at the court?"
27200Good gracious, what has come over me? 27200 Had you not better first try to take down the moon?
27200Has anything happened? 27200 Has the pope a great family?"
27200Hast thou a lover?
27200Have they a queen bee?
27200Have you a passport?
27200Have you any milk in the house?
27200Have you been obliged to toil in this way from your childhood?
27200Have you ever been in the Emperor''s stable?
27200Have you got the tinder- box?
27200Have you heard the fresh news at the mill?
27200Have you heard? 27200 Have you not seen Death go by, with my little child?"
27200Have you obtained an appointment here in the city?
27200Have you really courage enough to go out into the wide world with me?
27200Have you seen the most beautiful places in the world, and can you tell us all about them? 27200 He is merciful; will you not be merciful too?
27200Hearest thou?
27200Here''s my brother''s old waistcoat-- could not that play in our piece, too?
27200Hiss- s- s, hiss- s- s.What could that be by the stove?
27200How I left the world?
27200How are you going on now?
27200How are you now?
27200How can I break this spell?
27200How can anyone put such notions into a child''s head?
27200How can you talk in that manner?
27200How could you give up such a comfortable place?
27200How cruel,murmured Babette;"why should he die just as the day of happiness drew near?
27200How did you come here, my sweet child?
27200How did you come here?
27200How did you find your way hither?
27200How did you get all this money?
27200How have you found your way here? 27200 How is this?"
27200How is this?
27200How is this?
27200How is this?
27200How is this?
27200How should there be room in a little nut like this for the best thing of all? 27200 How very terrible,"cried the princess;"is he locked up?"
27200I am going into the wide world also,replied the stranger;"shall we keep each other company?"
27200I can endure it no longer,said he;"how beautiful it looks when it stretches out its tongue?"
27200I can give her no greater power than she has already,said the woman;"do n''t you see how strong that is?
27200I hope you will delight us all with the little instrument-- will you not?
27200I presume you have never heard of what is called''European necessity?''
27200I say, you Turkish nurse,cried he,"what castle is that near the town, with the windows placed so high?"
27200I suppose they are of shiny leather?
27200I suppose you are really a diamond?
27200I suppose you know the history of''the Girl who Trod on the Loaf, so that she might not soil her shoes''? 27200 I think it will be better for me to take a coach; but where are they?"
27200I wonder if the Story will ever come back again and knock?
27200I wonder what is to be found up here? 27200 I wonder why grandmother looks at the withered flower in the old book that way?
27200If human beings are not drowned,asked the little mermaid,"can they live forever?
27200In a pot or in a frame?
27200In what manner did you leave the world?
27200Is any one up there?
27200Is he dead?
27200Is it Kay you mean?
27200Is it anything about the Story?
27200Is it myself that I see represented on a white shield?
27200Is it not a beautiful piece of cloth?
27200Is it not clever?
27200Is it not magnificent?
27200Is it possible that I have been lying here in the street dreaming?
27200Is it possible?
27200Is it really true,he asked,"that you do not know what poetry is?"
27200Is it true that you have taken my little playmate away from me?
27200Is it true what they say, that she was good for nothing?
27200Is that a hill?
27200Is that the little Zephyr?
27200Is that thing up yonder to teach me to run? 27200 Is that to- day''s number of the Day?"
27200Is the play over already?
27200Is there anything more to see?
27200Is there in this nut a carriage, with a pair of horses?
27200Is there, in this nut, a pretty little neckerchief like the one Christina has on her neck?
27200It is very easy to ask that,replied the crow,"but how are we to manage it?
27200It must be quite awful,said little Gerda,"but did Kay win the princess?"
27200Kay, what are you doing?
27200MARCH, March,the fourth called after him, slapping him on the shoulder,"do n''t you smell something?
27200May I ask to whom I have the pleasure of speaking?
27200May I ask when it will appear?
27200May I be allowed to ask if you are made of gold?
27200May I see you paint?
27200Mrs. Meta Mogen,said the fellow,"do you still remember how my father, when your husband was still alive, had to ride on the wooden horse?
27200My betrothal ring?
27200My father has answered?
27200No? 27200 Now whatever is the meaning of this?"
27200Now who do you think this poor woman was? 27200 Now, have you got nothing to say?"
27200Oh dear, what was that?
27200Oh dear,he thought,"can I be so stupid?
27200Oh, how I have wasted my time?
27200Oh, is he the publisher? 27200 Oh, it is very cold,"said the little mouse,"or else we should be so comfortable here, should n''t we, you old fir- tree?"
27200Oh, those are the gentlemen, are they?
27200Oh, what is the pain in my fingers to the torment which my heart endures?
27200Oh, what will become of her?
27200Oh, when any one is as beautiful as you are,said the shirt- collar,"is not that encouragement enough?"
27200Oh, why did Eve pluck the fruit from the tree of knowledge? 27200 Oh, you come from that quarter, do you?"
27200Oh,exclaimed Little Claus, pretending to be frightened,"he is in there still, is he?
27200Pray who are you, my good woman?
27200Pride,said the dead woman;"do you see him?"
27200Sayest thou so?
27200Shall I ever get in there? 27200 Shall I sing once more before the emperor?"
27200Shall I tell you news, Peter?
27200Shall we be hanged and roasted?
27200Shall we beat him?
27200Shall we fly down, and pick their eyes out?
27200Shall we go to a country house, or travel?
27200Shall we thrash him? 27200 She who sprung from the race of the fairies, is it?"
27200Should I be able to see these flowers?
27200Skins, skins, who''ll buy skins?
27200Skins, skins,he cried again,"who''ll buy skins?"
27200So he is promoted,said the darning- needle,"while I remain here; I am too fine, but that is my pride, and what do I care?"
27200So that is a burning mountain; but is it not very dangerous to the people who live near it?
27200So this then is the way to the garden of paradise?
27200Suppose he had one?
27200Surely you do not doubt the existence of a future life?
27200Tee- wit, tee- wit; is spring coming at last?
27200Thank you,said little Gerda, and then she went to the other flowers, and looked into their little cups, and asked,"Do you know where little Kay is?"
27200That I will,said the East Wind;"but why have you put my brother South in a bag?
27200That does not matter,said the old snail;"has she a house?"
27200That is a strange sort of soup,said the mouse- king;"shall we not now hear about the preparation?"
27200That is not what I asked,persisted the widow;"I mean, has he a wife and children?"
27200That is your opinion, is it?
27200That one poor?
27200That was just a chance,people said; but do things happen by chance?
27200That was not at all a bad proposal,said the other mouse;"but how is the soup made?"
27200The footman?
27200The vault of heaven is above me everywhere,he says,"and what do I want more?"
27200The whole world is mine, why therefore should I grieve?
27200Then will you give me the beautiful golden sword and that rich banner? 27200 Then will you write a few words to her?"
27200They are not taller than I am: indeed, one is much less; and why are the branches not cut off? 27200 This is not a bad story,"said the soldier;"but what am I to give you, you old witch?
27200To whom have I the honor of speaking?
27200Tweet, where has the master of the nest gone?
27200Was it there like a cool grove, or like a holy temple? 27200 We do n''t understand you?
27200We have driven well,said she,"but why do you tremble?
27200We will have some claret, or mead, or Bremen beer,said one of the guests;"will you drink with us?"
27200Well, and what have you done-- what great deed have you performed down below?
27200Well, how are you getting on?
27200Well, then, why do you lie in my way?
27200Were they not high- born?
27200What are they doing? 27200 What are those swans flapping their wings for?"
27200What are yonder white clouds that rise so high?
27200What are you doing, you children?
27200What are you going to do with the tinder- box?
27200What are you running away with there?
27200What are you saying up there?
27200What are you talking of there?
27200What are you thinking of?
27200What can he want it for?
27200What can it be? 27200 What can that be now?"
27200What can this be? 27200 What can you want with those three fern rods?"
27200What could I be made?
27200What did he say?
27200What do they cost a yard?
27200What do you mean by that?
27200What do you mean by that?
27200What do you mean?
27200What do you say now? 27200 What do you think of that crowing?"
27200What does all this mean?
27200What does he say now?
27200What does he say?
27200What does this mean?
27200What does this mean?
27200What does this mean?
27200What good will that do you?
27200What happens to man,asked the wise man of himself,"when touched by the angel of death?
27200What has a woman to do with rule?
27200What has happened?
27200What have I given? 27200 What have I thought of?"
27200What have you brought home?
27200What have you in that sack?
27200What have you there?
27200What have you to say to me now?
27200What is in it?
27200What is it o''clock, watchman?
27200What is that noise about?
27200What is that?
27200What is the first prize?
27200What is the matter with you?
27200What is the news at the mill?
27200What is the sea, and what does it look like?
27200What is this I hear?
27200What is this woman''s name?
27200What is this? 27200 What is this?"
27200What is your name?
27200What kind of creatures are those little grey ones that run about behind us?
27200What matters it?
27200What must I do to earn my bread by poetry?
27200What question of debt can there be between us? 27200 What shall we do to- night?"
27200What sort of a duck are you?
27200What tricks have you been playing?
27200What was going to happen to him now?
27200What was that?
27200What was the appearance of the inner rooms?
27200What were you doing there?
27200What will I give? 27200 What will you give me for the sackful?"
27200What will you give the old lamp?
27200What will you take for your pot?
27200What''s become of that one whom they drew away with the hook? 27200 What''s the matter, little missie?"
27200What''s your pleasure?
27200What, are there no roses here?
27200When God is so hard to me, how can I expect men to be better?
27200When will Spring come?
27200When will Spring come?
27200When will it be summer?
27200Whence do you come?
27200Where am I going now?
27200Where am I?
27200Where are they going?
27200Where are you coming?
27200Where are your sons?
27200Where can I see her?
27200Where can Rudy and Babette be in this awful weather?
27200Where can mother be so long? 27200 Where did you get this singular sheet?
27200Where do the beautiful flowers dance?
27200Where do you come from? 27200 Where do you reside when you are at home?"
27200Where does Paris begin, and when shall I be there?
27200Where does he rest now? 27200 Where hast thou stolen that beauteous maiden?"
27200Where have you stolen that pretty dog?
27200Where is the house?
27200Where is the nest? 27200 Where shall I find Death, who went away with my little child?"
27200Where was the Snow Queen going? 27200 Where were they going?
27200Where? 27200 Which is the despised plant you so specially pity?"
27200Which is the unhappy flower, and which is the blessed one?
27200Which of these shall we take with us to heaven to be transplanted there?
27200Whither art thou leading me?
27200Who are these two?
27200Who are you? 27200 Who are you?"
27200Who art thou?
27200Who can the strangers be?
27200Who does that stand for?
27200Who is Humpty Dumpty?
27200Who is that black domino with whom you were dancing, Emily?
27200Who is that old man?
27200Who is that?
27200Who is that?
27200Who is the dead man?
27200Who is there?
27200Who is to be invited?
27200Who knows? 27200 Who may that young stranger be?"
27200Who should know better than I do?
27200Who were they? 27200 Whom in the world do I not know?"
27200Whose is it, and where did you get it?
27200Why are you angry with me?
27200Why are you lying up there? 27200 Why did not somebody tell me?"
27200Why do n''t you go?
27200Why do the flowers look so faded to- day?
27200Why do you cry?
27200Why do you do this?
27200Why have not we an immortal soul?
27200Why should I have such a precious thing? 27200 Why, what have you found this time?"
27200Will it cost much, I wonder?
27200Will it ever knock at my door again?
27200Will not one knock soon?
27200Will the naughty boys freeze and fall in pieces?
27200Will you be quiet? 27200 Will you come and help me hold it?"
27200Will you dance with me?
27200Will you do that?
27200Will you have that knife with you while you are asleep?
27200Will you have your child back? 27200 Will you really take so much trouble, young lady?"
27200Will you take care of my cattle?
27200Will you tell me a story?
27200Will you tell us a story?
27200Wilt thou sail with me to- night, little Hjalmar?
27200With the crow? 27200 Wo n''t there be a noise?"
27200Woe is me,she said;"was the germ of sin really in my heart?
27200Would you like to have your freedom?
27200Would you like to stay here and freeze when the winter comes?
27200Yes, certainly,replied Martha;"but why do you take it so much to heart?
27200Yes, then,you say;"but in our own days?"
27200Yes; but what do you think it is?
27200You are invited to the elf hill for this evening,said she;"but will you do me a great favor and undertake the invitations?
27200You are surely Annette, the schoolmaster''s daughter,cried he;"will you give me a kiss?"
27200You have become quite an Italian,said the General''s lady,"and I presume you speak the language like a native?"
27200You have been here longer than I have; do you know them?
27200You have poetry in bottles?
27200You poor little child,said the old woman,"how did you manage to come all this distance into the wide world on such a rapid rolling stream?"
27200You say you are unhappy; and would you make another mother as unhappy as yourself?
27200You speak our language,said he,"what do you wish?
27200You speak without knowing the facts,replied the beetle;"do n''t you see that I am a prisoner?"
27200You think I shall keep him, do you not?
27200Your name and profession?
27200''Are they dead?''
27200''Did you laugh at the duck too?''
27200''Do you remember how we got our first boy, and then Mary, Niels, Peter, John, and Christian?''
27200''For whom was that star intended?''
27200''How is it,''she asked,''that when you have prayed for daily bread, you always add something I can not understand?
27200''How so?''
27200''I have not read it yet; what think you of the contents?''
27200''Mother,''she cried,''what will the little dogs think, when they see me in these splendid new things?''"
27200''Tramp, tramp''--somebody was coming upstairs: who might it be?
27200''What are you about here?''
27200''What is it you say after our daily bread?''
27200''What use will it be,''I asked,''to the mouse- king or to our whole mighty kingdom that I have seen all these beautiful things?
27200''Why not indeed?''
27200''Will you, then, marry a maiden who honors and esteems you, although she can not offer you her love?
27200A little?
27200Ah, ah, is he not clever?
27200Ah, can you tell me that?
27200Ah, wilt thou pity me?
27200Am I stupid?
27200Am I then in my old days so completely changed?''
27200Am I to have her or not?"
27200Am I unfit to be emperor?
27200Among them was a singer, and he approached the royal spirit, and said,"Why mournest thou, and wherefore dost thou suffer thus?"
27200And am I to stand here and listen to you?"
27200And did that occupation seem more agreeable to him than watching the wax lights in the temple?
27200And do n''t I belong to the royal stables?"
27200And do you know what''s in that egg?
27200And have you not fed the swans with bread when they swam towards you?
27200And here is a nettle: what may its leaves tell us?
27200And how did all this come about?
27200And if sometimes the mocking strain reached her--"Why not join in the jesting cry That contemns all gifts from the throne on high?"
27200And if the son of the house felt himself honored, what were the feelings of the Thistle bush?
27200And now there was a ball to be given in the General''s house for Emily, and could Mr. George be invited to it?
27200And she asked,''Wilt thou be buried on the rock, in the firm snow?
27200And tearless, but sunk in bitter reflection, he sat upon his hard couch, and then knelt down-- before whom?
27200And then as the thought arose in her mind,"Does God reckon by days and hours?"
27200And then what happened?
27200And was this one of God''s creatures, fashioned in His own likeness, to have no better fate?
27200And what about the genius of the family-- the fourth brother-- who wanted to invent something new and original?
27200And what became of Waldemar Daa and his daughters?
27200And what became of the little lad?--the poor boy of the humble town of Marbach?
27200And what became of them?
27200And what did he see?
27200And what did the potato sing?
27200And what is the Bell telling?
27200And what is the moral?
27200And what news did Giuseppe bring back?
27200And what then?
27200And what, said the tiger- lily?
27200And when is it to be undertaken?
27200And who could the sculptor have been?
27200And who is the handsomest marksman?
27200And who were these distinguished guests?
27200And who were these strangers?
27200And why did it come no longer?
27200And why not?
27200And would you then be quite happy?''
27200And you saw all that with your own eyes?"
27200And you will come to me soon, will you not, dear mother?"
27200Are air balloons invented yet?"
27200Are there no neighbors or any one whom I can call?"
27200Are we spending the evening properly?
27200Are you a he or a she?
27200Are you all out?"
27200Are you all over too?"
27200Are you not up yet?"
27200Are you standing on a ladder?"
27200Art thou happy now?
27200As John left the wood, a strong man''s voice called after him,"Hallo, comrade, where are you travelling?"
27200At last she went to a fairy, and said,"I should so very much like to have a little child; can you tell me where I can find one?"
27200BABETTE Who was the best marksman in the canton Valais?
27200Be a good boy, Tuk, and run across and help the old woman, wo n''t you?"
27200Beetle?"
27200Before the stone cross fastened to the wall?
27200Bishop Olaf of Borglum, what dost thou purpose?
27200But I suppose you heard what was said?
27200But an hour had scarcely passed, when the knight stood before the captive pasha, and inquired,"What do you suppose awaiteth thee?"
27200But are you aware that every word we speak is being taken down, and will be published in the paper to- morrow?
27200But do not men sometimes act quite as cruelly towards their own fellow- men?
27200But has he well- grounded knowledge?
27200But have you ever thought where we are to get a wife for him?
27200But he did not enjoy it; how, indeed, could he enjoy anything when he was"stove sick?"
27200But how can houses build a house?
27200But how comes it that one relation is always harder towards another than even strangers would be?
27200But how did the conversation come to turn on these pictures?
27200But how was the Dryad ever to see such beings?
27200But how were they represented in the world?
27200But just look at all the others, are they not the prettiest little ducklings you ever saw?
27200But she will return, will she not?
27200But the fir- tree remained quite still, and thought to himself,"Shall I have anything to do with all this?"
27200But the jewel in the head of the toad?
27200But the spark that had shot forth from her eyes; what became of that?
27200But this other book-- I suppose the author expects me to purchase it?
27200But what became of the other peas?
27200But what compensation did he get for having been imprisoned a whole year, and shut out from all communication with his fellow creatures?
27200But what could he say?
27200But what could she find more charming and beautiful?
27200But what did he see in the clear stream below?
27200But what do you think I ought to do?
27200But what might this something be?
27200But what was it the farrier asked me?
27200But what will you give me, if I tell you what more you will have to do?
27200But what will you have?
27200But when he came to the words,"the nightingale is the most beautiful of all,"he exclaimed,"What is this?
27200But where are the lads?"
27200But where bloomed the flower that could bring him health?
27200But where did Inge go?
27200But where was she?
27200But where was the nightingale to be found?
27200But which of our deeds is selected and given to us?
27200But which one did he like?
27200But would he also attempt to pass me?
27200But would this ever happen?
27200But you-- you who are so richly endowed-- what have you given to the world?
27200But, in his pain, he had not noticed that his friend Angelo stood beside him; and Angelo held back his arm with a strong grasp, crying,"Are you mad?
27200By this there will be always''something''to make me remembered, and is not that worth living for?"
27200Can a dog or a horse laugh?
27200Can not I be left in peace on my own property?
27200Can not you give this little maiden something which will make her as strong as twelve men, to overcome the Snow Queen?"
27200Can such happiness be imagined?"
27200Can the fire of the heart be extinguished in the flames of the funeral pile?"
27200Can the incomprehensible happen?
27200Can they do anything more than dance and throw about their legs, and make a whirlwind?"
27200Can your papa do that?"
27200Could he confess to Babette, indeed, every thought which in the hour of temptation might have led him to wrong doing?
27200Could it be the Metal Pig?
27200Could not all these bricks and pieces be as a wall of stone to prevail for him?
27200Could she expect him to confess?
27200Daa and his daughters could not help hearing it, so I blew about their ears to drown the noise; what use was it that they should listen?
27200Did I not tell you so?"
27200Did he drive away to meet death, or hasten to the embraces of his beloved?
27200Did it come from the picture or from the animal?
27200Did it escape from some confessional in a distant corner, or from the bosom of the Dryad?
27200Did old heroes fight their battles over again?
27200Did she recognize him?
27200Did she remember anything about it?
27200Did the gods of ancient times pass through the rooms?
27200Did they speak?"
27200Did you ever hear your papa and mamma talk about spitting?
27200Did you meet them?"
27200Distractedly?
27200Do n''t you know the announcement that has been made all through the country?"
27200Do n''t you see that?"
27200Do the dancing maidens sleep, or are they dead?
27200Do we not, in our dreams, show a wonderful dramatic talent?
27200Do you consider yourself more clever than the cat, or the old woman?
27200Do you imagine you are a poet?
27200Do you know anything about it?"
27200Do you know of anything prettier than we are, you old willow- tree?"
27200Do you know one?"
27200Do you know what dwells in the glass?"
27200Do you know where Lapland is?"
27200Do you know where he is?"
27200Do you know?"
27200Do you not recognize your old shadow?
27200Do you not smell the sweet perfume from flower and bush?
27200Do you notice the variegated splendour of the walls and windows?
27200Do you pretend to be a guide, and not know the road better than that?"
27200Do you remember the dead man whom the bad people wished to throw out of his coffin?
27200Do you remember the delicious fruit and the cooling juice from the wild herbs?"
27200Do you see how splendidly the tree has grown?
27200Do you see that wall of rocks, and the cavern beneath it, over which the grape vines hang like a green curtain?
27200Do you see the beautiful blue sky above you?
27200Do you see the farmhouse there, with the large baking stove, which projects like a gigantic egg out of the wall into the road?
27200Do you see the stinging nettle which I hold in my hand?
27200Do you see the winged lion on the pillar?
27200Do you see those four sacks hanging on the wall?
27200Do you think he ever has friendly looks, or a Christmas tree?
27200Do you think he gets any kisses?
27200Do you think she would like to swim, or to let the water close over her head?"
27200Do you think that farther out in the wood there may be others of our race?"
27200Do you think this a sad story?
27200Do you think you have?"
27200Do you understand it?
27200Do you understand me?
27200Do you understand me?"
27200Do you understand what I say?"
27200Do you wish for some more trefoil leaves?
27200Do you?"
27200Does all the beauty of the world cease when you die?"
27200Does the crater of the volcano know that the glowing lava is pouring from it?
27200Dost thou know this city?
27200Dost thou not fashion for thyself a religion and a dreamy life after thine own idea, as almost all do?
27200Dost thou not know me?
27200Down into the depths below Paris?
27200Even afterwards, when they were left alone, and she asked,"Did you know me again, Ib?"
27200Every time I fly up in the air, he puts his head out of the nest, and says,''Will you?''
27200Everything looked more beautiful than in the theatre at Copenhagen, but then Joanna had been there, and-- could it be?
27200Flat and faded she certainly was, but why should she be thrown on the ground?
27200Flowers can not speak?"
27200For her sake, could he not love this child, who was a stranger to him?
27200Give me what?"
27200Had all the past been a dream?
27200Had his thoughts ventured to fly with the ships of the barbarians, to their homes in far distant England?
27200Had she come to the enchanted Garden of Armida?
27200Had she not been brought by a wonderful miracle to all this joy and happiness?
27200Had, perhaps, every one of them a longing in her breast, like the Dryad?
27200Has not so much been given us in this world that we ought to be, we must be, contented with it?"
27200Have I written this tragedy?"
27200Have you anything to say in defence?
27200Have you brought anything for me?"
27200Have you courage to creep with me through the fire- box, and the iron pipe?
27200Have you courage to go with us?
27200Have you ever given yourself an account why you bloomed, and how your blooming comes about-- why just in that way and in no other?"
27200Have you heard?
27200Have you never thought of being engaged?"
27200Have you not often seen that when the wind blows they nod at one another, and rustle all their green leaves?"
27200Have you not seen a person who is always at my side?
27200Have you not seen those beautiful red, white, and yellow butterflies, that look like flowers?
27200He did not offer his hand, but she seized it, and said--"Will you not shake hands with your sister at parting, my old playfellow?"
27200He had a golden shoe on each foot, and why was this?
27200He had studied, too, and had been assistant teacher and deputy clerk; but of what service was all that to him?
27200He has genius, certainly: do n''t you think so?''
27200He summoned the widow before a law court; but what did he gain thereby?
27200He who was in the wrong, and who ought to ask her forgiveness; for did she not love him with her whole heart?
27200He wished to make a picture of that which was within him, stirring upward from his heart to the realms of the Infinite; but how, and in what form?
27200Helga must have helped him in his flight, for it was her horse that was missed from the stable; but by what power had all this been accomplished?
27200Her rich silk rustles as she bends over and exclaims,''Will he not come?''
27200His dwelling was cold and comfortless; and how long would he be obliged to bear all this?
27200How brightly began the history of this tree, and what is it now?
27200How can I reward you?"
27200How comes this in a room at the Hall?"
27200How could I fancy that I should ever be the means of bringing knowledge and joy to man?
27200How could he explain?
27200How could it have got into this crack?
27200How could she be a wicked witch, as all the people asserted?
27200How did you manage to conquer it?"
27200How does the city look when you enter in at the gate?"
27200How does this happen?
27200How had they come here, so many miles inland?
27200How many have been cast into this world only to endure poverty, shame, illness, and misfortune?
27200How might the good folks be getting on, up stairs and down stairs?
27200How much have you got in it?"
27200How should she get out there?
27200How was she to go farther?
27200However did I get all this?
27200However, he could not endure it: and why?
27200I could not speak; but he seized her hand and said,"Our brother yonder loves you, and is he not dear to you?
27200I exclaimed,"and what wonders you can relate?"
27200I hope it is not disagreeable to you that I should have touched upon it?
27200I know that I have a clever head; and what more do I want?
27200I know that you have now another shadow; do I owe you anything?
27200I shall start on my travels, but what conveyance shall I choose?
27200I should like a travelling companion; will you travel with me as my shadow?
27200I should not have done so?"
27200I suppose you knew him years ago, when you were in service there?"
27200I suppose you know how many days there are in a year?"
27200I went up to him, and took his hand, and said,''Do you still feel the same for me?''
27200I will bore a hole through thee, that everyone may know that thou art a false and worthless thing; and yet, why should I do that?
27200I wonder if I have done anything wrong?''
27200I wonder if the sparrows will peep in at the windows as they fly?
27200I wonder if those in there like it?''
27200I wonder what will become of it?
27200Ida and Anna Dorothea wept bitterly, Joanna stood, pale and proud, biting her lips till the blood came; but what could that avail?
27200If it were nothing but a consolation?
27200In a year we will see each other again, but then you will be married; shall it not be so?
27200In the country they have more knowledge; shall we fly away there and wait?
27200In this nest was a young eagle; but who would venture to take it?
27200In what form did this wonder exhibit itself?
27200Is it not just the same thing with men?
27200Is it paralysis, or something dazzling my eyes?"
27200Is it patriotic?
27200Is it possible that I am not fit for my office?
27200Is it really you?"
27200Is not that written in the Koran?"
27200Is the bottle empty?"
27200Is there anything I can do to win an immortal soul?"
27200Is there not even a dunghill here in this garden, where a person of rank, like myself, could take up his abode and feel at home?"
27200Is there such a bird in my empire?
27200Is this evening the last time we shall meet?
27200It is a curious man''s nest all the same; and what have they put up here?
27200It was rather bold of him that he went and asked the emperor''s daughter:"Will you marry me?"
27200Joanna pressed his hand, and said,"Have you ever been to the theatre?
27200Joy again overwhelmed me; for was I not good silver, and had I not a genuine stamp?
27200Kill the prince and come back; hasten: do you not see the first red streaks in the sky?
27200Lovers pluck off the leaves, and as they pluck each leaf, they ask a question about their lovers; thus:"Does he or she love me?--Ardently?
27200May I not fly away?
27200May I venture to ask your name?"
27200Mother, do you not see them all?
27200My arm is strong enough to carry you through the wood; and will not all our wings be strong enough to fly with you over the sea?"
27200My career has been very interesting, but what''s the use of that if nobody knows anything about it?
27200My little singing- bird do you wish me to prepare another bath for you?"
27200Not at all?"
27200Now and then, certainly, a door is seen; but it is locked, for what does the Chinaman care about the outer world?
27200Now the world is written out, and what can I write poetry about?"
27200Now when might that have been washed overboard?
27200Now, from whom might this saddle come?
27200Oh, did not the youngest sister listen eagerly to all these descriptions?
27200Oh, how would it end?
27200Oh, will you take me to the palace?"
27200On seeing the sparrow which the boys had brought, and which they said they did not want, he asked,"Shall we make it look very pretty?"
27200One drop out of me is enough for half a page of paper, and what can not half a page contain?
27200One evening the other large birds of the forest said to the ostrich,"Brother, shall we fly to the river to- morrow morning to drink, God willing?"
27200Or did he wish to sit at the rich feast, wiping his mouth with silver paper between each course?
27200Or is the sun the great bucket?
27200Or was his sin so great that, if he dared utter it, the Celestial Empire would punish it with death?
27200Or wouldst thou rather be buried in the sea?''
27200People say so; but is it so?
27200Perhaps it has been here once, and has knocked; but who had eyes or ears for it in those times?
27200Poor blind child, what would become of her in those distant regions?
27200SATURDAY"Am I to hear any more stories?"
27200Shall I exchange?"
27200Shall I tell you what we had?
27200Shall I tell you?
27200Shall it be a tragedy, or a domestic drama?"
27200Shall it live in consciousness?
27200Shall we be engaged to each other?
27200Shall we exchange?
27200Shall we exchange?"
27200Shall we go there and see what the cause of it is?"
27200Shall we read the story all over again?
27200She asked,"What will the play be to- morrow?"
27200She has left us the house as an inheritance; but to which of us is it to belong when we have families of our own?"
27200She paused for a moment-- of what might she be thinking?
27200She possessed beauty enough-- nobody could be more elegant or prettier than she was; but what of that?
27200She was over- powered with her good fortune, which seemed always increasing, and therefore what might it become in the future?
27200She, on the contrary, used to announce the coming of autumn, with"Have you heard they''re selling boxes for the theatre?
27200Should he never be able here on earth to obtain a light by which everything written in the Book of Truth should become clear to him?
27200So the seventh and last came; and what could she do?
27200Some he seated in front of him, and some behind, but always inquired first,"How stands the mark- book?"
27200Sometimes, when they went at night to spread their nets, they would hear her sing, and say,"Oh, is not that beautiful?"
27200Suddenly her name was called from above; what could it mean?
27200THE OLD STREET LAMP Did you ever hear the story of the old street lamp?
27200THE SHEPHERDESS AND THE SHEEP Have you ever seen an old wooden cupboard quite black with age, and ornamented with carved foliage and curious figures?
27200THIRD STORY THE FLOWER GARDEN OF THE WOMAN WHO COULD CONJURE But how fared little Gerda during Kay''s absence?
27200THURSDAY"What do you think I have got here?"
27200TWO MAIDENS Have you ever seen a maiden?
27200Tell me, you were on the balcony that evening; you went through the door, and what did you see?"
27200That is a very old name,"said the counsellor;"was it not the name of the first publisher in Denmark?"
27200That''s what all the reports said, and who did not hear them?
27200The Lord our Creator is wise and full of loving kindness-- who can doubt it?
27200The Phoenix bird, dost thou not know him?
27200The Phoenix bird, dost thou not know him?
27200The boys in Denmark make a song of it, thus:--"Poor old bachelor, cut your wood, Such a nightcap was never seen; Who would think it was ever clean?
27200The emperor immediately sprang out of bed, and called for his physician; but what could he do?
27200The flower must be one from the garden of love; but which of the roses there showed forth the highest and purest love?
27200The goloshes of Fortune were the wet pair; and, besides, why should not a clerk in a police office be wrong sometimes?
27200The green band which fastened the wings of the bird to the mother''s heart, where did it flutter now?
27200The little daisy would have liked so much to help it, but what could be done?
27200The magnetic sparks come to it,--but how?
27200The old women who drank brandy would color it quite black before they drank it, to show how they mourned; and what more could they do?
27200The other roses looked after their sister, and asked each other,"Where can she be going to?"
27200The rich widow over the way in the basement has made advances to me; she will make me rich, but you are in my heart; what do you advise me to do?"
27200The snow crackled, the sparrows hopped about in the wheel- ruts, and shivered, crying,"Tweet, tweet; when will spring come?
27200The splendid black horses, where are they?
27200The visit to her, the feast at the tavern, the evening with the purple carnations of the Campagna?
27200The world knew not which was the true, and indeed how should the world know?
27200Then came the sparrows again out of the town, and asked,"Who is that old man?"
27200Then he recognized Gerda, and said, joyfully,"Gerda, dear little Gerda, where have you been all this time, and where have I been?"
27200Then her husband asked,"From whence hast thou all at once derived such strength and comforting faith?"
27200Then she stooped down quite close to the flower, and listened; and what did he say?
27200Then the mother screamed aloud with terror,"Which of them belongs to my child?
27200There was an old lady''s glove, too: I wonder what that was thinking of?
27200They had never heard such an account in their lives; and after they had listened to it attentively, they said,"What a number of things you have seen?
27200They were both arrogant, but which of the two rendered most service?
27200Through the spheres echoed the words:"What is near, what is far, when thou art lifted by the mighty genius of mind?"
27200To thee I dedicate these lines of woe; Wilt thou not understand the mournful tale?
27200To- day the Will- o''-the- Wisps are in the town, and have taken the matter in hand-- but where and how?
27200Towards evening, however, he came to Rudy, and said,"Will you write a letter for me?
27200Two days longer we can remain here, and then must we fly away to a beautiful land which is not our home; and how can we take you with us?
27200Very much?
27200Was he dreaming, or what was happening?
27200Was he rising higher, or sinking lower and lower into the deep, deadly abyss?
27200Was he still at Montreux, and should she meet him there on her wedding day?
27200Was he thinking, perchance, of his fair young wife?
27200Was he to be only the plaything of fortune?
27200Was he, perhaps, dreaming of working in the little flower garden behind the high street wall?
27200Was it a bird, a bat or an owl?
27200Was it a waterspout, or a heavy sea rolling suddenly upon them?
27200Was it in their house, or a neighbor''s?
27200Was it really a ghostly apparition, or a fever dream?
27200Was it the death- hymn he wrote there?
27200Was it the effect of prayer and praise that caused this?
27200Was it the spirit of life or of death that overpowered him?
27200Was n''t it a good thing that we did n''t bind George apprentice to a handicraftsman?
27200Was not that witty?
27200Was not the knight Sir Bugge murdered by wicked people?
27200Was she to be left sitting on the bough all night long?
27200Was this building, perhaps, the wonder of the world?
27200Was this the one they had heard?
27200We all three offered a silent prayer, and then she said to us,"Will you be friends in life and in death?"
27200Well, have you lost your courage?
27200Well, what can the seventh and last do?"
27200Well, what have you to ask me?
27200Were not these the words of the serpent, the father of lies?"
27200Were the chambers like a starry sky seen from the top of a high mountain?"
27200Were there lovely children at play, who related their dreams?"
27200Were these the glad notes of joy?
27200Were they each nothing or something?
27200What am I going to give?
27200What are you about?"
27200What became of the cows in the field, the old gold and silver vessels in cupboards and chests, and even the house and home itself?
27200What can death be?
27200What can it be?
27200What could be the end of such a state of things?
27200What did the Englishman want there?
27200What did the agent say?
27200What did they talk about?
27200What did you want out here?
27200What do the hyacinths say?
27200What does''the beautiful''mean?"
27200What dost thou bring?
27200What else could it be?
27200What had become of those wonderful pearls?
27200What had happened?
27200What had happened?
27200What had not been won and achieved by this love?
27200What has a little mouse to do with a Maypole dance?
27200What has struck the boat?
27200What hast thou found?
27200What hast thou gained?
27200What have I to do with the world?
27200What have you to ask me?
27200What is he to do in Rome?
27200What is in this one?
27200What is it you are talking about?"
27200What is it you say?
27200What is it you want?
27200What is it?"
27200What is the matter with me?"
27200What is the old maid thinking of?
27200What kind of a play will you have now?
27200What might he have thought when he plucked and kept it?
27200What might that be?
27200What possesses you to break into my house?
27200What song could the buttercups sing?
27200What sort of a little snip are you, and how did you find your way to the cavern of the Winds?"
27200What the Bell tells?
27200What then must happen to us, who only grow out of the earth, and are so inferior to them, if we venture to do so?"
27200What to him were the minstrel''s songs?
27200What was he about?
27200What was it she saw lying there?
27200What was it that had happened to him on the mountain?
27200What was it?
27200What was the name of the place?
27200What were her feelings?
27200What were they looking at?
27200What will be done with me now, I wonder?
27200What will come next?
27200What will happen next?"
27200What will he be like?"
27200What will our successors do?''
27200What will you give it?"
27200What would become of them?"
27200What would become of this young man, and what would become of the old bell?
27200What, said the little snow- drop?
27200What, says the convolvulus?
27200Whence?
27200Where and how shall we exist?"
27200Where are all the things of which I heard, for which I longed, and for whose sake I wanted to come hither?
27200Where are the arches of triumph, the Boulevards, the wondrous building of the world?
27200Where are they going?"
27200Where are they?
27200Where could he be?
27200Where could he have fallen?
27200Where could it be?
27200Where did they live?
27200Where does he dwell now?
27200Where does she dwell?"
27200Where indeed were they?
27200Where is it?"
27200Where is she to be found?
27200Where now were the tears he had shed?
27200Where shall I find my little child?"
27200Where shall I go?"
27200Where was I to find it?
27200Where was the real entrance?
27200Where were the heads, where the feet?
27200Where were they?
27200Where would Joanna''s place be on that wall some day?
27200Wherefore do you weep, old willow- tree?"
27200Which are we to believe, the rats or the lovers?"
27200Which of our deeds will Death take out of the savings bank, and give to us as provision?
27200Which of the children whose prattle we have described, could call this house his own?
27200Which will be my bride?
27200Whither had the Dryad come?
27200Whither?
27200Whither?
27200Who can replace it?
27200Who can understand you, I wonder?
27200Who could be weeping for Inge?
27200Who could live there?
27200Who could resist sitting down on such a beautiful carpet?
27200Who has not had, for once in his life, a moment of poetic inspiration?
27200Who has not, in reading this story, thought of his own strife, and of his own numerous"difficulties?"
27200Who is the man?
27200Who would be able to loosen this wicked charm which the sorcerer had worked upon it?
27200Who would trouble themselves about such trifles?
27200Whose little lambs will they one day become?
27200Why did he not leave them alone?
27200Why did you let yourself be tempted?
27200Why do you appear,--you-- a strange woman?"
27200Why do you not laugh?
27200Why have I not been told of it?"
27200Why should he be entertained, and waited upon by Babette?
27200Why was not I lying on a lap and travelling in a coach?
27200Why?
27200Will no one give any more?"
27200Will the trees of the forest come to see me?
27200Will you come and drive them away, that we may have a good night''s rest?''
27200Will you go with me?
27200Will you go with us, and become a bird of passage?
27200Will you hear what I have to say?
27200Will you now set the kettle on the fire-- so?
27200Will you take her a glass of mead?
27200Will you think it over?''
27200Would Jurgen fare better?
27200Would her husband and her daughters flit past?
27200Would it not be more sensible to put the house in order?
27200Yes, but where, and when?
27200Yes, indeed; what would the miller say?
27200Yes; what is the soul, and whither does it go?"
27200You could make yourself useful in this way,"said he, jokingly;"be so good as to step in now, will you?"
27200You do not understand the world; you will make yourself ill about it; you ought to travel; I am going on a journey in the summer, will you go with me?
27200You have, no doubt, heard of the CATACOMBS?
27200You know him very well, do you not?
27200You know it all very well, do n''t you, old lady?"
27200You know what a falling star is, do you not?
27200You must have understood what is going on?"
27200You suffer, you best and most pious woman?"
27200You will also wear a red shawl; and what if it hang too far down?
27200Young and old, the whole city, were there; who was to warn them, if no one noticed the sign, or knew what it meant as I did?
27200among the many in the big grave that they have dug for the dead?
27200and even in my garden?
27200and have you been in the storeroom, where cheeses lie on the shelf, and hams hang from the ceiling?
27200and how would he look,--her noble lord and husband?
27200and in what shapes they have aforetime appeared and led people into crooked paths?"
27200and the lilies- of- the- valley, which last year covered the earth with their bloom?
27200and the wild apple- tree with its lovely blossoms, and all the glory of the wood, which has flourished year after year?
27200and what did they bring with them?"
27200and what do you know?"
27200and what in that one yonder?"
27200and where lies the garden of paradise?"
27200and where was the land which might lie nearest to her home?
27200and who helped you?"
27200and will you give me the emperor''s crown?"
27200as the old lady called it;"what would be the end of this?"
27200asked he;"how could you come here faster than I have?"
27200asked one;"shall we not become hard by sitting so long?
27200asked the Snow Man,"is it at all like me?"
27200asked the boy;"may I see you put the picture on this white canvas?"
27200asked the farrier;"of course you understand the reason?"
27200asked the lizards;"what can the matter be?
27200asked the man,"and what do you know of the world?
27200asked the oak,"and the purple bell- flower, and the daisy?"
27200asked the princess,"or would you prefer to be raised to the position of court crows, with all that is left in the kitchen for yourselves?"
27200but did she think of him?
27200cried the old goblin,"is that the only house- keeping they can perform?
27200do they never die as we do here in the sea?"
27200do you see their powers of giving pleasure?"
27200do you think so?
27200exclaimed Jack the Dullard,"for I suppose you''ll let me roast my crow at the same time?"
27200exclaimed the Portuguese duck:"would you compare me with the cat-- that beast of prey?
27200exclaimed the brothers,"what are you going to do with that?"
27200exclaimed the woman,"have n''t you got stories enough?
27200have you been here all day?"
27200he asked,"whose outward appearance is that of an animal, while thou willingly performest acts of mercy?"
27200he exclaimed;"what in the world has happened to the bishop?
27200he exclaimed;"where do they find pasture?
27200how did you entice her out?
27200is he going to propose to me?"
27200is little Kay really dead then?
27200or shall I carry him away to a place that you do not know?"
27200or, was she shuddering in the cold morning air at the thought of approaching twilight?
27200repeated the General and afterwards the General''s lady;"what is meant by one of our first families?"
27200repeated the fly;"what is the meaning of all over?
27200replied Little Claus,"my conjuror can do anything I ask him,--can you not?"
27200replied the little singing- bird,"what have I done?"
27200said Care;"what happiness have your goloshes brought to mankind?"
27200said Gerda,"was he amongst the crowd?"
27200said Great Claus; so he ran off directly to Little Claus, and asked,"Where did you get so much money?"
27200said Jack the Dullard,"where are you going?
27200said Rudy;"who do you wish to write to?"
27200said he;"How did I get up here and fall asleep in this way?
27200said he;"do you want to get in here too?"
27200said he;"that you are going away to- morrow?
27200said the East Wind,"would you like to go there?
27200said the chimney- sweep;"have you thought how large it is, and that we can never come back here again?"
27200said the lecturer, as if the idea pleased him;''are you really happy?''
27200said the old goblin,"is that what she means?
27200shall I ever see thee again?
27200shall I grow faster here, and keep on all these ornaments summer and winter?"
27200she asked of my golden crescent;''Are they dead?''
27200she asked the roses;"do you think he is dead?"
27200she cried,"have I had a wicked dream?
27200she said;"could he not bear even such a little peck as I gave him?
27200sighed I to myself,''am I also to be a burden on the conscience of this poor woman?
27200the cold makes you shiver, little ones, does it not?"
27200they all cried;"do you think we have money to spend by the bushel?"
27200they asked;"are we going farther into the country?"
27200they cried,"that is only an old wooden shoe, and the upper part is missing into the bargain; are you going to give that also to the Princess?"
27200thought Great Claus;"did I not kill him?
27200thought the princess;"am I really cured?
27200thought the tree,"what am I to do here?
27200was my dream a glimpse into the course of my future life, whose thread must be violently broken to rescue me from sin?
27200well,"he thought,"who knows?
27200were these the sort of people he should see at his new home?
27200what can he be thinking about?"
27200what did they want?
27200what do you mean?"
27200what does it mean?"
27200what have I done?"
27200what have I seized, found, won?
27200what is that?
27200what was lying yonder?"
27200what''s the matter with you?"
27200when will Christmas be here?
27200where am I?"
27200where do you live?
27200where is my tinder- box?"
27200where was the furrier''s daughter?
27200where?"
27200whither had it been wafted?
27200why did Adam eat the forbidden fruit?"
27200you are one of that sort, are you?
5668''As we went along, one of those that had charge of us demanded of me who I was? 5668 Abdallah,"( so was the old man named) said she to him,"tell me, I beseech thee, does that beautiful and charming slave belong to thee?
5668Agreeable Maimoune,replied Danhasch,"may I presume to ask who this prince you speak of is?"
5668Ah, why didst thou act thus, leave me in such affliction, and plunge thyself into such distress, which, indeed, thy conduct hath almost deserved?
5668Alas,replied the princess,"how is it possible that I should execute such an act?
5668Alas,thought I,"this misfortune and affront are unsufferable; how shall I dare to return to Moussol?
5668Almost two- and- twenty years,replied Mobarec;"but how can you convince me that you are his son?"
5668Am I awake, or do I sleep?
5668Am not I unhappy to be born to dove, without hope of enjoying the object of my passion? 5668 Amgiad,"cried he,"what shall we do now?
5668And does this magnificent pavilion also belong to you?
5668And for what,cried the lady, feigning astonishment,"would they have used you so cruelly?
5668And pray what have you brought?
5668And to whom, think you, belongs this slave?
5668And what did Imama to Ateca?
5668And what is that?
5668And what may that reason be, sir,replied Ali Baba,"if I may be so bold as to ask you?"
5668And what more is there?
5668And what stratagem is it you would employ?
5668And what,added she, addressing herself to her treasurer,"did I order you to give her?"
5668And where is he now?
5668And why, fool,said the man of the house,"do not you answer at first, when people ask you who is there?
5668Are all my sons,demanded he,"in the tower?"
5668Are you olive- merchants?
5668Art thou from Cairo?
5668Art thou the destroyer of the monster?
5668Buddir ad Deen,said I to the merchant,"what is the price you must have for this stuff that belongs to me?"
5668But how earnest thou here?
5668But is what you say true?
5668But sir,said he,"will it not be more convenient for you to go home?"
5668But tell me,replied he,"can you shoot with a bow?"
5668But they who will attack you are not to be seen,replied the dervish;"how will you defend yourself against invisible persons?"
5668But wherein have I offended you?
5668But, Sir,said I,"may I presume to ask your majesty, if strangers be obliged to observe this law?"
5668But, my lord,said he,"suppose I should be so fortunate as to meet with such a maid as you require, how shall I know that I have found her?"
5668But,answered the caliph,"do you know one thing?
5668But,resumed he,"how came you into my dominions, and from whence came you last?"
5668But,said the genie,"if I grant you the time you ask, I doubt you will never return?"
5668By no means,said Mazin;"canst thou point me out the way to it without making me forfeit my integrity?
5668By what adventure,said she, fetching a deep sigh,"are you come hither?
5668Can you play upon it?
5668Canst thou admit us to thy lodging,rejoined the sultan,"that we may see her?"
5668Canst thou doubt it?
5668Captain,said I,"was the merchant''s name, to whom those bales belonged, Sinbad?"
5668Child,said she,"to whom are we obliged for this great plenty and liberality?
5668Children,said he to them,"are you all here?
5668Come, bring the ragout; I fancy you will like that as well as you did the lamb: Well, how do you relish it?
5668Commander of the true believers,replied the grand vizier,"if that is your intention, I wish to God she may play ill.""Why so?"
5668Cursed genie,replied Maimoune,"what hurt canst thou do me?
5668Dear cousin,I cried,"what is the meaning of this?"
5668Dear sister,said they to her,"what has happened since we left you?
5668Devout adorers of fire,said he to them,"this is a happy day for us; where is Gazban?
5668Did not you sit down when you came hither?
5668Do not lie now,said he,"but tell me truly who I am?"
5668Do you come to affront and contradict me,said the prince in a rage,"and to tell me to my face, that what I have told you is a dream?"
5668Do you really mean,said she,"that he is descended from the kings of Persia?"
5668Do you see that mountain?
5668Do you take heaven to be witness to this promise?
5668Ever since I have known this young man,said I inwardly,"he has always appeared very polite; is it possible he can do this out of contempt?
5668Father,replied the sultan,"what occasion is there that I should learn a mean occupation, when I have the wealth of a kingdom at my command?"
5668Father,said she,"will you not oblige me so far as to make me a present of this young man?
5668Friend Ali Khaujeh,said he,"when you brought your jar to me did I touch it?
5668From whence come you?
5668From whence?
5668From whom,demanded the king,"have you the suggestion which you dare pronounce?
5668Genie,said he,"will not you keep the oath you just now made?
5668Gentlemen,said he,"I am much troubled for that young man and lady; can you give me any tidings of them?"
5668Good man,replied the servant,"whence do you come that you ask me such a question?
5668Good people,replied the magistrate,"for what should I assassinate your master, whom I do not know and who has done me no harm?
5668Good woman,said he,"do you not perceive I have bantered you all this while?
5668Great queen,he replied, with tears in his eyes,"does your majesty ask what my name was formerly, or what it is now?"
5668Hagi Hassan,said he,"here is a slave whom I mean to sell; what will they give for her?"
5668Hath not a prophet come unto you of your own nation? 5668 Have you forgotten already what we agreed on?
5668He your husband,replied he:"can you retain those thoughts so long?
5668Heaven protect us,said the cauzee,"how can men of our gravity dance?
5668Heavens,exclaimed the merchant,"how could I kill your son?
5668Ho, brother Abou Hassan,said he,"is it you?
5668Honest man,said the vizier,"who art thou?"
5668How am I,said he,"to pass this sea, and enter the islands?"
5668How can we,answered Zeyn,"when we have no boat?"
5668How can you do that,replied the sultan,"when the other evening you could not prevent your guest escaping, though you had him by the nose?"
5668How comes it,rejoined the sovereign,"that you have not visited the sultan?
5668How could you, said he,"resolve to bring me your own daughter?"
5668How did they bear their punishment?
5668How did you manage,said he,"to avoid being taken by the watch?"
5668How know you,asked the jeweller,"that I have another house?"
5668How like you this bread,said the Barmecide;"do not you find it very good?"
5668How little reason had I,said he,"to think that none was so unfortunate as myself?
5668How long is it since you left my father''s court?
5668How many of these pieces,added he,"have you?
5668How should the sultan hear us?
5668How so?
5668How so?
5668How, brother?
5668How, madam,he demanded,"what then am I to believe?
5668How, sir,replied the princess, without giving him time to go on,"do you ask me if any one lay with me last night?
5668How,said Buddir ad Deen,"must I be rifled; must I be imprisoned in a chest, and at last impaled, and all for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?
5668How,said my brother,"what have you to say against me?
5668How,thought I,"shall I get rid of this cursed barber?
5668How?
5668I am a genie,said he, speaking to me,"son of the daughter of Eblis, prince of genies: is not this your hatchet, and are not these your cords?"
5668I beseech you, madam,replied the fair slave,"what prejudice can this action of Noor ad Deen''s do to you or him?"
5668I own I am the man,replied Buddir ad Deen,"but pray what crime is that?"
5668I sent for you,resumed the sultan,"to inform you that it is my intention to provide a proper marriage for you: what do you think of my design?"
5668I will call another barber, sir,replied he, with a coolness that put me out of all patience;"what reason have you to be angry with me?
5668I wish it may be so,replied the sultan;"but upon what ground do you build an expectation, the gratification of which appears to me so improbable?"
5668If Ganem alone be guilty,thought he to himself,"why should the mother and the daughter, who are innocent, be punished?
5668If I do not know him,said the princess,"would you have me lie on purpose to ruin him?"
5668If it be so,answered the cauzee,"look into that jar, and tell me how long it is since those olives were put into it?"
5668In what can I serve you?
5668Inform me,replied the sultan,"of whom am I the son?"
5668Inform me,said Mazin,"what is the name of this country?"
5668Inform me,said he,"for God''s sake, where I am, and what you would have?"
5668Is Schemselnihar then dead?
5668Is it bashfulness,said she,"that keeps you silent?
5668Is it possible that Scheich Ibrahim makes a custom of leaving it thus all night? 5668 Is it possible that he does not perceive it?"
5668Is it possible?
5668Is it so?
5668Is it thus,asked the physician,"that you reward me for curing you?"
5668Is it true,demanded he,"that you are willing to sell it for fifty sherifs?"
5668Is it true,demanded the Barmecide,"that you are fasting till now?
5668Is not this she,said he,"that the sultan my father would have had me marry?
5668Is that your reward for the service I have rendered you?
5668Is the question at present,replied Zobeide,"if your garden is more valuable than my palace?
5668Is there any thing, my charming lady, wanting to render the pleasure of the evening more complete?
5668Is this garden your own?
5668It is true he is our sovereign,exclaimed the youngest sister,"but how can he know whether we are starving or in affluence?"
5668It is true,said I to her,"we live but poorly; but what have the rich which we have not?
5668It is wine then you mean?
5668Jaaffier,said he to the grand vizier,"what excuse have you for the door''s being open at this unseasonable hour?"
5668Knowest thou,said the king, when he saw him,"why I sent for thee?"
5668Knowst thou not that lake?
5668Light of my eyes,said the husband,"didst thou meet with any thing amusing to- day in thy visit to the bath?
5668Look,said the genie, shewing her Buddir ad Deen Houssun,"did you ever see a youth more beautiful?"
5668Madam,demanded the caliph,"where is the bundle of hair?"
5668Madam,said he,"how could you live with such wicked people, as I have so justly revenged myself upon?"
5668Madam,said she,"may I presume to ask you the occasion of your concern; and what accident has happened in the bath, to make you leave it so soon?"
5668May not I have so much time,said he,"as to take some money and jewels along with me?"
5668May one ask,said I,"by what mischance you lost your right hand?"
5668Mesrour,said he, to the eunuch,"what do you think of the princess''s discourse?
5668Miserable debauchee,cried he,"wouldst thou have me believe thou hast any thing else left to make money of but thy slave?"
5668Mother,replied he,"how do you know the sultan has been guilty of a breach of promise?"
5668Mother,said he"for the love of God be pleased to tell me who is my father?"
5668Mother,said he,"have I an uncle?"
5668My abused daughter,said he,"can you give me no farther light in this miraculous affair?"
5668My brave boys,said the vizier,"which of you was the cauzee when you played together last night?"
5668My daughter,said he to the princess,"where are the musicians whom I hear?
5668My dear friend,replied Abou Neeut,"why should we travel?
5668My dear husband, what have you done?
5668My dear little one,said he,"what hast thou in thy bosom?"
5668My dear lord,cried she,"do not I deceive myself; is it certain that I hear you, and that you speak to me?"
5668My good lady,said he,"I was looking for your son, Ganem, is he here?"
5668My good mother,replied the princess Perie- zadeh,"what are those?
5668My good mother,said the princess,"what bird is a roe, and where may one get an egg?"
5668My lord,replied the slave,"I swear I know of no such lady; and how should she come in without my knowledge, since I lay at the door?"
5668My lord,said the Jew,"then you sell me for a thousand sequins the lading of the first of your ships that shall arrive in port?"
5668My lovely black,resumed the queen,"what do you mean by the root?"
5668My son,said she to him,"would you go into Egypt on the faith of an illusive dream?"
5668My son,said the sage,"why shouldst thou do so?
5668No indeed,said the wife,"I have not been there; that was too far off, and if I had gone, do you think I should have found any?
5668No, by Allah, most liberal host,replied the other;"but who art thou?"
5668No,said the younger"I will not consent to that; are we not brethren, and equal in title and dignity?
5668On what account?
5668On what account?
5668Potent monarch, to whom I am so much indebted,replied the king,"you think then that you are near your capital?"
5668Pray, Sister,said the beautiful portress,"come in, what do you stay for?
5668Princes,cried he,"am I not deceived?
5668Princess,cried I,"what means all this?"
5668Scheich Ibrahim,said Noor ad Deen, in great surprise,"did you not tell us that this was your garden?"
5668Silent man,said he to him,"I understand that you know wonderful stories, will you tell me some of them?"
5668Silent man,said the sultan,"why do you laugh?"
5668Sir,exclaimed one of the domestics,"will you listen to a robber, who enters people''s houses to plunder and murder them?
5668Sir,said Codadad,"give me leave to ask how you could know the adventure of the castle?
5668Sir,said he,"why would your majesty take my life?
5668Sir,said the barber,"pray what do you mean?
5668Sir,said the old man, stopping him,"may I presume to ask from what part of the world you come?"
5668Sire,cried his friends, the moment he joined them,"who has insulted you?
5668Sirrah,said Amgiad, with a fierce tone, and angry look,"where have you been?
5668Sister,said prince Bahman,"what is become of all your mirth and gaiety?
5668Softly, sir,said he, very calmly, without being moved by my anger:"are you not afraid of a relapse?
5668Son,said she,"I beg of you, if it be not disagreeable, to tell me what reason you have for your great aversion to marriage?
5668Tell me how I can reward thee?
5668Tell me,said the princess,"what is become of the young man that has passed the night with me, and whom I love with all my soul?"
5668That is strange,said the fisherman,"are you resolved to reward good with evil?
5668That is true,replied I;"but in the name of Allah, from whence dost thou come?"
5668That sovereign,said Mobarec,"was formerly my master; but, my lord, I never knew of any children he had: what is your age?"
5668The lady is in the right,answered Scheich Ibrahim;"but what can you do with your fish, unless it were dressed?
5668The sorceress,said some,"has got a new subject to exercise her wickedness upon; will heaven never deliver the world from her tyranny?"
5668This is the history of myself and this hind: is it not one of the most wonderful and surprising?
5668Those admirable characters, are they not written by the hands of a man?
5668Those negroes,replied they,"eat men, and by what miracle did you escape their cruelty?"
5668Traitor,said he, to the eunuch as soon as he had perused it through,"is this the fidelity thou owest thy master and thy king?"
5668True,said the old man of Hijjem,"yet if Providence puts affluence and distinction in our way, should we refuse it?"
5668Unhappy woman,said the sultan,"art thou worthy that I should answer thee?"
5668Upon what dost thou travel?
5668Very well,replied the fisherman,"shall I speak to you more civilly, and call you the owl of good luck?"
5668Vizier,replied the sultan,"why will you have it to be enchantment?
5668Vizier,said the king immediately,"look yonder; what is the meaning of those horsemen?"
5668Was it not you,replied they,"that made the cream- tart you sold to the eunuch?"
5668Was it not you,said they,"that sold this eunuch the cream- tart?"
5668Well daughter,said he,"are you in a better humour than yesterday?"
5668Well, Alla ad Deen,replied the magician,"what business do you follow?
5668Well, I suppose,said the caliph,"you wish to have a stop put to this disorder?"
5668Well, brother,said she, with great impatience,"what news do you bring me of my husband?
5668Well, giggler,said the princess,"will you tell me what you laugh at?"
5668Well, mother,said he,"may I entertain any hopes, or must I die with despair?"
5668Well, my son,said she, wiping her tears,"how do you do, and how do you find yourself?
5668Well, my son,said the Hijjemmee,"art thou now convinced of my skill, and my sincerity in offering to promote thy fortunes?"
5668Well, prince Ahmed,said she,"will you pledge your faith to me, as I do mine to you?"
5668Well, sir,said she,"are you now convinced of the truth of what I told you?"
5668Well, then, sorry slave,said Zobeide to Mesrour, in passion,"what have you to say to all this?
5668Well, vizier,said he aloud,"who do you think it can be that has sent me so extraordinary a present, and neither of us know?
5668Well,continued the sultan,"what sayst thou to such a present?
5668Well,cried Shumse ad Deen,"after all this, will you continue to deny that you entered the pastry- cook''s house, and ate there?"
5668Well,said Haroon al Rusheed, seeing him come into his closet,"have you executed my orders?"
5668Well,said the emperor,"have you spoken to your sister?
5668Well,said the enchantress,"to pacify you, I am ready to execute your commands; would you have me restore him?"
5668Well,said the king,"in what condition did you find my son?"
5668Well,said the sultan,"have you seen Alla ad Deen''s palace?"
5668Were you born blind of the right eye,continued she?
5668What are your professions?
5668What assurance do you require?
5668What can I do more fortunate for myself, or with greater pleasure? 5668 What can be the meaning of this mark?"
5668What can that be?
5668What can that blemish be?
5668What could you sew up a dead body for? 5668 What do I hear?"
5668What do you here, my dear brothers?
5668What do you mean, Sinbad?
5668What do you mean?
5668What do you mean?
5668What do you say?
5668What do you wait for?
5668What do you want, my son?
5668What dost thou mean to ask him?
5668What fable do you tell me?
5668What good,said he,"will my death do you or your employers?
5668What had the vizier done,demands the Grecian king,"to deserve punishment?"
5668What harm could your master do to me,replied the cauzee,"to oblige me to abuse him at that rate?
5668What hast thou got in these trunks?
5668What is it,demanded the king,"that makes it so valuable?"
5668What is it,demanded the prince,"that could give my father so much uneasiness?"
5668What is that bit of lead worth,said he,"a farthing?
5668What is that, good mother?
5668What is that?
5668What is that?
5668What is the matter with you, son?
5668What is the meaning of this,said Ganem''s mother;"do we carry the plague about us?
5668What is the meaning of this?
5668What is the reason I must be gone so soon?
5668What liquor would you have?
5668What mean you, sir,said some that were nearest to him,"thus to expose a life of such promising expectations to certain death?
5668What misfortune befell the ass?
5668What more pressing business,said prince Perviz,"can we have than to be informed of what concerns us so much?
5668What motive can hinder you?
5668What novelty is this?
5668What riotous doings are here?
5668What shall I do?
5668What then is become of her,demanded the caliph,"if she is not dead?"
5668What time do you require then?
5668What urgent affair,demanded Noor ad Deen,"obliges you to be going so soon?"
5668What was the cause of your flight?
5668What will I do?
5668What will become of me?
5668What will you do with me then?
5668What would you do if you were?
5668What would you have me do with it?
5668What wouldst thou have me to do with him,answered the citizen,"but roast and eat him?"
5668What wouldst thou have?
5668What, Abou Hassan,said he, continuing to laugh aloud,"hast thou conspired against my life, to kill me a second time with laughing?
5668What, son,exclaimed Fatima;"have you then more reasons after those you have already alleged?
5668What,cried she, much louder than before,"are the dead raised?
5668What,demanded she"hinders you from revealing the secret?"
5668What,said he,"can be the matter with the king of Tartary that he is so melancholy?
5668What,said the caliph,"are you not of the family?
5668Where are you going?
5668Where are you, my brave lads,cried he,"old companions of my watchings, inroads, and labour?
5668Where art thou going?
5668Where is she?
5668Where is the fair Persian, then?
5668Where,says she,"can he get so many large gold trays, and such precious stones to fill them?
5668Wherefore?
5668Whither are you going?
5668Who is this difficult man,said she,"who eats no salt with his meat?
5668Why are you so altered, so dejected, and so different from yourself? 5668 Why askest thou?"
5668Why do you not open the gate then,demanded the lady;"what do you wait for?"
5668Why do you sigh and weep so bitterly?
5668Why not, madam,answered Zeyn,"do you imagine all dreams are chimerical?
5668Why should I not give so much?
5668Why you,answered his mother very mildly;"are not you Abou Hassan my son?
5668Why, are we not at Grand Cairo?
5668Why, madam?
5668Why, you wretch,exclaimed the vizier"was it not you that made the cream- tart you sent me?"
5668Why,said my brother,"can not a man carry a knife about him without being a robber?
5668Why,said the lady in surprise,"do you use me so?
5668Woe be to thee,replied the genie,"hast thou the presumption to venture to marry my mistress?"
5668Woe to thee, rash boy,exclaimed Hyjauje;"who is he that can prevent my executing thee instantly?"
5668Yes,replied he,"I am the man; and who says any thing against it?
5668You are in the right,answered the prince;"but how shall we explore where they are?"
5668You are skilled then in physiognomy?
5668You believe him then to be dead?
5668You have travelled,said I,"and what have you gained by it?
5668You jest, sir,said he;"if your friends have invited you to a feast, what should prevent you from allowing me to go with you?
5668You were about,added he,"to put to death an innocent person; for how can he be guilty of the death of a man who was dead before he touched him?
5668Your stubbornness,resumed the vizier"will rouse my anger; why will you run headlong to your ruin?
5668''Do you believe,''said she,''that the hopes of seeing me would at all contribute to rescue him from his danger?''
5668''Has he actually no other disorder than what is occasioned by his love of me?''
5668''How?''
5668''Is your account true?''
5668''My good mother,''demanded she''what is the matter with you, why are you so cast down?''
5668''Why would you require of me,''said she, with a profound sigh,''to renew my grief?
5668Abou Hassan continued to beat her, at every stroke asking her if he was the commander of the faithful?
5668Abou Neeut having retired with him into a closet, said,"Knowest them me not, my old friend?"
5668About the middle of the night, the miller came to my brother, and said,"Neighbour, are you asleep?
5668Accordingly, he set out again for his kingdom, and as soon as he arrived there, the queen asked him, whether he returned well pleased?
5668After concerting among themselves, one of them coming up, said,"My lad, dost thou mean to sell this she- goat?"
5668After his arrival, he heard the ass say to the ox"Comrade, tell me, I pray you, what you intend to do to- morrow, when the labourer brings you meat?"
5668After several compliments had passed on both sides, Boubekir said to the prince,"Sir, do you design to stay long at Bagdad?"
5668After supper the men asked him, if he knew whom he spoke to?
5668After the experience you have had of the little satisfaction there is in wedlock, is it possible you dare venture a second time?
5668After the proof we have had of his riches, can we think it strange, that he should raise a palace in so short a time?
5668Ali Khaujeh,"said he, addressing himself to the boy who acted that part,"have you brought the jar?"
5668Ali, who had arrived some time before Ahmed, asked Houssain how long he had been there?
5668Alla ad Deen got up trembling, and with tears in his eyes, said to the magician,"What have I done, uncle, to be treated in this severe manner?"
5668Am I come to the court of Harran to be the occasion of giving the sultan so much anxiety?"
5668Am I not handsome and agreeable?"
5668Amgiad drank and rose:"Where are you going?"
5668Amgiad then demanded how far it was to the isle of Ebene?
5668And all this, for what crime?
5668And can it be supposed she will let it go unrevenged?
5668And do you not agree that there is no wickedness equal to that of women?"
5668And has she consented to the pleasure I expect of seeing you?"
5668And how can I, when I am taken up with your dear image, express to that prince the joy which he always observed in my eyes whenever he came to see me?
5668And if I could, can I undertake it without exposing so much gold and treasure to him who hath already enriched himself out of it?
5668And if you had any that were worthy of the least attention of so great a monarch, what proportion could they bear to the favour you would ask?
5668And ought I not to bestow her on one who values her at so great price?"
5668And what have I done to deserve one so wretched?"
5668And who your nephew?
5668And will you not own that you have lost your wager?"
5668And, in short, why do not you frighten them by bellowing aloud?
5668Another voice asked,"What need had the princess of the dervise''s prayers?"
5668Are not the proofs I have repeatedly given you of my affection sufficient?"
5668Are these the actions of Moosulmauns, of persons who make a profession of probity, justice, and good works?"
5668Are they under ground, or invisible in the air?
5668Are ye not, however, fearful lest the sultan should hear you on his rounds, and punish you for an infringement of the laws?"
5668Are you all here alive?
5668Are you allied by blood or love?"
5668Are you fallen into the hands of our enemies?
5668Are you not well?
5668Are you of any trade?"
5668Are you resolved to let me die, without affording me the comfort of hearing again from your own lips that you love me?
5668Are you worthy of it?
5668As for her beauty, I can depend on you; but what assurance can you give me in relation to her virtue?"
5668As he expected what had happened at Ali Baba''s might make a great noise, he asked his host what news there was in the city?
5668As my brother went out of the house, two blind men, his companions, were going by, knew him by his voice, and asked him what was the matter?
5668As soon as I saw the young man, I intreated him to alight, and asked him if he would not take his money?
5668As soon as he was come into the market, a citizen stops him, and asked how much he would have for his bird?
5668As soon as my wife heard me give this order, she exclaimed,"What are you about, husband?
5668As soon as she saw the surgeon, she asked him eagerly, what news he had to tell her of Codadad?
5668As soon as the prince saw him, he asked earnestly what news he had to communicate?
5668As soon as they were sat down,"well,"said Abdallah to the king,"and how have you passed your time with that abominable sorceress?"
5668At last he got up, opened the lattice, and putting out his head, cried"Abou Hassan, Abou Hassan, have you a mind to kill me with laughing?"
5668At length Abou Neeut exclaimed,"Dost thou not recollect me, my brother?"
5668At length he broke out in these words:"Beautiful Fetnah, may I give credit to what you tell me?
5668At that instant his mother arrived, and catching hold of the vizier''s arm, cried,"Sir, what are you doing?"
5668At that summons the genie appeared, and said,"What wouldst thou have?
5668At the end of the year he took him aside, and said to him;"My son, have you thoroughly considered what I proposed to you last year about marrying?
5668At these words all the children cried out,"Agib, what do you say?
5668At this answer, the furious genie told her,"You are a false woman, and speak not the truth; how came that axe and those cords there?"
5668At this instant the sultan, who had been listening, entered hastily, and exclaimed,"Wherefore utter ye these affronting speeches?"
5668Besides, I want to know what is become of my vest, my turban, and the bag of sequins I had at Cairo?"
5668Besides, can you think of leaving me, and adding to that sorrow with which I am already oppressed?
5668Besides, what is become of Schemselnihar and the prince of Persia?
5668Blood is no less powerful than love in great minds; but why should we despair of seeing him again?
5668Buddir ad Deen, astonished at the sight, said with a pitiful tone,"Pray, good people, why do you serve me so?
5668But before he had time to answer, the master of the house exclaimed,"Is it thus you honour my table?
5668But do you think it an easy matter absolutely to refuse the emperor what he seems so earnestly to desire?
5668But how can you speak to me if you are dumb?
5668But how could she get into this tower without my consent?
5668But if I should make you a present of a purse of two hundred pieces of gold, would not you make a good use of it?
5668But is that your case?
5668But may I, without being guilty of rudeness, presume to inquire by what adventure you know me?
5668But now I am speaking of the palace, pray how do you like it?
5668But suppose I had discovered him, is it not easily seen that his conduct must have proceeded from absolute power?
5668But suppose me so vile a wretch, could I do it without being guilty of perjury, after the oath I have taken to my late father never to sell you?
5668But tell me what sort of men were your brothers, were they like you?"
5668But the cursed barber followed me close, crying,"Stay, sir; why do you run so fast?
5668But then, brother,"said he farther,"if this marriage should happen, would you expect that my son should settle a jointure on your daughter?"
5668But to come to what most particularly concerns me; tell me, I conjure you, how so wicked and perfidious a man treats you?"
5668But what presents have you to make?
5668But whence comest thou, youth?
5668But where shall I seek her?
5668But where will he get so many such slaves as the sultan requires?
5668But whither does this pleasing transport carry me?
5668But who,"added he, looking upon the sultan my husband,"is that man?
5668But whose son am I?"
5668But why do I talk of that?
5668But will he not have some one to lament?
5668But, madam,"continued he,"let us drop this discourse; and since I have eaten of your cake, would you do me the favour to taste mine?"
5668By thy art and skill canst thou tell me what is become of him?
5668Can I believe these are your brothers who have treated you so unmercifully, those brothers whom thy valour had saved?
5668Can I relish his kind words and caresses?
5668Can I see the caliph familiar with the objets of my love, and not die of grief?
5668Can my happiness be greater in this world, than to have you on one side of me, and my glass on the other?"
5668Can not the heads you see on all the gates of this city deter you from such an undertaking?
5668Can not these inspire you with joy and pleasure, and make you forget the fancies of an imagination disturbed by what can have been only a dream?"
5668Can the wife of a sovereign be capable of such infamous conduct?
5668Can there happen a greater misfortune to him or me?"
5668Can you not resolve us concerning the two black bitches and the lady that fainted away, who appears to have been so basely abused?"
5668Canst thou flatter thyself so far as to believe that the trifling adventures of a young debauchee are more interesting than those of my jester?
5668Codadad, my dear Codadad,"cried she,"is it you whom I behold just departing this life?
5668Could I guess that a sandman should come by that very day, my wife have no money, and would make such an exchange?
5668Could I, after the civility I shewed thee, expect such inhuman and barbarous usage?
5668Could you conceive a thought of aspiring in marriage to a princess, the daughter of so powerful a monarch as myself?
5668Did I not just now set you at liberty, and have you already forgotten my services?"
5668Did I not tell you truly, that you would expose your life by your obstinate refusal to let me go with you?
5668Did ever a son so well brought up as you dare to strike his mother?
5668Did not crook- back lie with you tonight?"
5668Did not he throw himself into danger, and could he have come off so well without my assistance?
5668Did not their wisdom, their modesty, their obedience, their submission to thy will in all things, their virtue, all plead in their behalf?
5668Did not you rise from me but now?
5668Did you ever tell me that such a sum was in the jar?
5668Did you really appear before my eyes, or was it only an illusion?"
5668Do not we breathe the same air, enjoy the same light and the same warmth of the sun?
5668Do not women sometimes lose their senses; for you have heard and seen all as well as myself?"
5668Do not you and I know what is just?
5668Do not you hear the trumpets of congratulation, and concerts of the finest music?
5668Do not you remember that you came to fetch the speaking bird, the singing tree, and the yellow water?
5668Do not you remember the promise you made to pay your duty to him occasionally?
5668Do not you think with me, that it would be complete if a roe''s egg were hung up in the midst of the dome?"
5668Do they think it will be so easy to surprise, seize, and secure their persons?
5668Do you assure me that you will cure my leprosy without potion, or applying any external medicine?"
5668Do you doubt the effect of my promise?
5668Do you know what she wants?"
5668Do you know,"continued he,"that I am master of the secret to make you white, instead of being black as you are?"
5668Do you mourn for your country, your friends or your relations?
5668Do you not know it?
5668Do you not know that''walls have ears?''"
5668Do you not remember the evening we spent together at your house this day month, where you did me the honour to treat me very generously?"
5668Do you not think the first person I should speak to would take me for a mad woman, and chastise me as I should deserve?
5668Do you remember you ever saw me before?"
5668Do you see this charming beauty?
5668Do you think I would suffer such a polluted wretch to poison me?
5668Do you think him worthy of the princess Buddir al Buddoor, my daughter?"
5668Do you think you have merited the honour you would have me ask for you?
5668Does not all that you behold point out to you that it is the palace of a Barmecide?"
5668Does not thy barbarity surpass my vengeance?
5668Does not your majesty find it more surprising than that of the hunch- back buffoon?
5668Dost thou think I am as perfidious as thyself, and capable of breaking the solemn oath I have made?
5668Give me leave to embrace you?"
5668God confound thee, Satan?
5668H. By what means?
5668H. Dost thou guard the Koran?
5668H. Hast thou read and understood it?
5668H. Knowest thou thy God?
5668H. Thou hast spoken justly, young man; but inform me what God hath daily and nightly commanded us as obligatory to do?
5668H. Truly said; but what hath mostly dignified and enlightened Arabia?
5668H. What dost thou learn from it?
5668H. What to observe in each year?
5668H. What to perform in the course of life?
5668H. What tribe of Arabs is most famous for benevolence, and celebrated for liberality?
5668H. Wherefore?
5668H. Wherefore?
5668H. Which of the tribes have been most disgraceful to Arabia, and most oppressive to its inhabitants?
5668H. Who were the most skilful in horsemanship in all Arabia, the most valiant, and of best conduct in war?
5668H. Why so?
5668H. Why think you so?
5668H. With whom?
5668Had I not better have tarried in Bagdad, and awaited my death?"
5668Has Ebn Thaher, who was all my comfort, in whom I put all my confidence, left me?
5668Has any body given you reason to be so melancholy?
5668Has any thing disquieted you?"
5668Has he any cause to complain of his reception?
5668Has he any reason to complain of and abuse me?
5668Has not the genie a very faithful mistress?
5668Has the sultan been made acquainted with our poverty, and had compassion on us?"
5668Hast thou closed those eyes that evinced so much love, and were all my delight?
5668Hast thou not already suffered sufficiently?"
5668Hast thou, indeed, young man,"said the sultan,"been at the Black Island?"
5668Have I given you such slender proofs of my love, that you should think me capable of so base an action?
5668Have I not always preferred your will to my own?
5668Have I unthinkingly given you any occasion of uneasiness?
5668Have any of my brothers, repenting, owned it to you?"
5668Have not you been an eye- witness of what it has procured us?
5668Have you any other commands?"
5668Have you renounced all those whims and fancies which the devil had put into your head?"
5668Have you seen her confidant?
5668Having finished the above prayer, Mazin turning humbly towards his accursed betrayer, said in a supplicating tone,"What hast thou done, my father?
5668Having made his obeisance, the sultan returning his salute, said,"Father, what hast thou brought with thee?"
5668He addressed himself to the two former, and asked why the merchant who sat with them looked so melancholy?
5668He advanced towards the pan, and touching one of the fish with his staff, said with a terrible voice,"Fish, are you in your duty?"
5668He asked Morgiana, who opened the door, and had let all things stand as they were, that he might see them, the reason of it?
5668He asked me who I was, and by what adventure I had come into his dominions?
5668He asked the princess where Codadad''s widow had taken up her lodging?
5668He asked them where his mother was?
5668He asked why they had disturbed his rest?
5668He caused the slave, who was not far off, to be brought immediately, and when he came,"Rascal,"said he,"where hadst thou this apple?"
5668He clapped his hands before his eyes, and lowering his head, said to himself,"What means all this?
5668He commanded her to rise, and having made her sit down, asked whether she had heard any news of Ganem?
5668He concealed his agitation, and said,"To whom does this necklace belong?"
5668He could not check his anger:"Indiscreet stranger,"said he to Codadad,"why did you let my sons go without bearing them company?
5668He has perhaps cured you only in appearance, and not radically; who knows but the medicine he has given you, may in time have pernicious effects?"
5668He made the customary obeisance to the governor, who returned his salute, and said,"Who art thou, boy?
5668He muttered and growled, saying,"For what, my lord, hast thou summoned me here?
5668He returned my salutation, and continued,"Is it possible you do not know me?"
5668He sent for the fisherman, and when he came, said to him,"Fisherman, the fish you have brought us, make me very uneasy; where did you catch them?"
5668He soon heard a voice, however, which said,"Do you know what honest man this is, to whom we have done this piece of service?"
5668He stepped towards the bed, and said to her,"Is it long since I left you?"
5668He then demanded of him who he was, and whence he had come?
5668He then ordered the genealogist into his presence, and said,"Dost thou think thou canst prove my descent?"
5668He was going to give him another blow, but the Barmecide holding up his hand to ward it off, cried,"Are you mad?"
5668He went forthwith to his sister- in- law''s tent, and said to the eunuch,"Wretch, have you the impudence to abuse the trust I repose in you?"
5668Her sister- in- law asked her, whether she would have a great or a small one?
5668How came she here, and by what conveyance, without my consent?
5668How came that vile genie to address himself to me, and not to you, to whom he had appeared before in the cave?"
5668How came the lady hither who lay with me to- night, and who brought her?"
5668How came this thought into your head, to surprise Zobeide and me thus, when we least thought of such a trick?"
5668How came you to know her?"
5668How can I appear abroad again without moustaches?"
5668How can I be happy or merry, while they are perhaps involved in misery?"
5668How can I doubt, since you still torment me with silence, after having for a whole year in vain supplicated you to speak?
5668How can I have contributed to it?''
5668How can I invite the sultan here?"
5668How can I open my mouth to make the proposal to the sultan?
5668How can the creature approach the perfection of the Almighty?
5668How do we know but that this unknown person is some villain, who has committed a robbery in his own country, and comes hither to enjoy himself?
5668How do you propose to effect your purpose?"
5668How have you distinguished yourself?
5668How is it possible that you, being this morning at Damascus, could be last night at Cairo?"
5668How it has happened that each of you has but one eye?
5668How shall I dare appear before my princess without her talisman?"
5668How then could I dare to complain?
5668How will you now carry on your correspondence with Schemselnihar?
5668However, the sultan knew her; and said to the labourer,"Wilt thou dispose of this damsel?"
5668Hump- back, who was enraged at Buddir ad Deen, suspecting him to be his rival, gave him a cross look, and said,"And thou, what dost thou wait for?
5668Hypocritical hag, do not you remember?"
5668I also knew the captain; but being persuaded that he believed me to be drowned, I went, and asked him whose bales these were?
5668I am a poet, I am an architect; and what is it I am not?
5668I am doomed to death by thy arrival here; but what, my lord, was thy object in coming?"
5668I answered,''Perhaps it may, and if you will permit me, I will try the remedy.''?
5668I asked him what reason he had thus to despair?
5668I asked them, what brought them there?
5668I asked,"wherein have I deserved your displeasure?"
5668I believe such an act of violence was never heard of before; but against whom could I complain?
5668I called to him, and said,"Good slave, pr''ythee tell me where thou hadst this apple?"
5668I desire you only to tell me what he has done with the lamp, and where he has put it?"
5668I had best return to Bussorah; what should I do here any longer?
5668I had just embraced him and bade him adieu; but as I turned about from him, I said,"What will you do with that little box of ointment?
5668I have only sent for you to know who you are, and to ask for what reason one of you, after severely whipping the two black bitches, wept with them?
5668I immediately jumped on the counter, and the baker throwing the money down before me, said,"See, and tell me which of these pieces is bad?"
5668I know the place well where these things are to be found: but what makes you ask me this question?"
5668I returned her salute, when she sat down, and said,"Sir, have you any choice Indian cloths?"
5668I said to him,"Pardon, Sir, the liberty I take in asking you what reason you have for not using your right hand?
5668I said to myself,"What can mean this tent, which has a grand appearance, in so solitary a plain?"
5668I sat up, and asked her who she was?
5668I separated it presently from the others, and setting my paw upon it, looked in the woman''s face, as much as to say,"Is it not so?"
5668I suffered myself to be bound as well as the rest, without speaking one word: for what would it have availed to have spoken, or made any resistance?
5668I then asked them what they did in such a desert place?
5668I therefore answered the genie,"How should I know her, when I never saw her till now?"
5668I think you told me you left him behind in the city of the idolaters; can you tell me what is his employment there?"
5668I told him I had the head- ache, which I hoped would have satisfied him, but he took a candle, and saw my cheek was hurt:"How comes this wound?"
5668I took the oil- pot, went directly to the jar which stood nearest to me; and when I came to it, heard a voice within, saying,''Is it time?''
5668I was enraged, and began to abuse her, saying,"Wherefore hast thou put upon me such a stratagem?"
5668I was lost in astonishment, and said to myself,"Do I dream, or am I awake?"
5668I was overcome with astonishment; but said,"Of what use is all this wealth in a depopulated city?
5668I wish to Heaven she had never addressed herself to me?
5668If I had been capable of such unworthy apathy, what would the court and city have thought of my love, or what your majesty?
5668If he be alive, where he is?
5668If he is, how came he in, or who could have introduced him?"
5668If thy own breast can not keep thy counsel, how canst thou expect the breast of another to be more faithful?''"
5668If you have done nothing to merit so high a distinction, nor are worthy of it, with what face shall I ask it?
5668If you speak of the Nile, where is there a more wonderful river?
5668Immediately on their knocking the youngest sister called out,"Who is at the door?"
5668In short, how can we suppose that I should lay hold of a man so small, armed as he describes?
5668In the middle he found a flaw, at which he was astonished, and exclaimed to the sharper,"By what means couldst thou discover the blemish?"
5668In what province, country, or part of the world, shall I find that and my dear princess, whom the sultan expects from me?
5668Instead of answering, the peasant demanded of the citizen what he would do with him in case he should buy him?
5668Is he in my house?
5668Is it from insensibility, or contempt?
5668Is it just, tell me, to impute a misfortune to persons who have no ways contributed towards it?
5668Is it me you call by that name?"
5668Is it not just to kill him that has killed another?"
5668Is it not reasonable that, after all this I should enjoy a quiet and pleasant life?"
5668Is it not sufficient justification that he is accused of a design against your life?
5668Is it not worthy of the princess my daughter?
5668Is it possible that a man could yesterday be at Bussorah, the same night at Cairo, and this morning at Damascus?
5668Is it possible that ye have not put them to death?
5668Is it possible they can be insensible of the danger of their correspondence?
5668Is it possible they should be capable of taking a man''s life for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?
5668Is it possible you should have forgotten that you have pledged your faith to me, or have you ceased to love one who is so passionately fond of you?
5668Is it possible, my son, that your quarrel should rise so high about an imaginary marriage?
5668Is it possible, sir, that you took me for one of those impudent beggars who push into people''s houses to ask alms?
5668Is it thus you discharge the trust I have reposed in you?
5668Is it you whom I behold?
5668Is not Grand Cairo the largest, the most populous, and the richest city in the world?
5668Is not the king of Persia, who loves and adores you, capable of comforting you, and making you amends for every loss?"
5668Is not your majesty the commander of the faithful, monarch of the world from east to west, and vicar on earth to the prophet sent of God?
5668Is the day of judgment come?
5668Is there anything you wish for?
5668King Beder and the old man left off discoursing, to look at the old woman, whom the king asked, what cause she had to be so much afflicted?
5668King Beder satisfied him in a few words; and the old man farther asked him if he had met anybody on the road?
5668Kummir al Zummaun entered, and demanded of the gardener why he was so cautious?
5668Look round you, prince; can there be a more delightful spot?
5668Madam,"added he, addressing himself to the Princess of Deryabar,"do you also forgive me for having concealed my birth from you?
5668Maimoune now cried out to Danhasch,"Ah, cursed genie, art thou not now convinced how much thy princess is inferior to my prince?
5668May I believe that the caliph really resigns you to Abou Ayoub''s son?"
5668May I flatter myself that it may be in my power to restore you to the sultan your father, who is inconsolable for the loss of you?
5668May I flatter myself that yours have the same impatience to see me?
5668May not he imagine that he alone deserved her; and that your majesty, by leaving the match to be decided by chance, has done him injustice?
5668Mazin now arose, unloosed his wife''s hair, and pulling off the cap, appeared before her, when she exclaimed,"From whence didst thou come?"
5668Must I spend my life in sloth, when all my brothers have the happiness to be fighting by his side?"
5668Must fortune needs add new misfortunes to just complaints?"
5668Must he go again to that subterraneous abode, the entrance into which is stopped up, and gather them off the trees?
5668Must so ardent a passion as mine be disturbed with so potent a rival?
5668Must the unjust and barbarous usage we have received render us odious to our fellow- citizens?
5668My brother made no answer, and knocked a second time: the master of the house asked again and again,"Who is there?"
5668My curiosity was raised; but I said within myself,"I am his guest, why should I intrude upon him by painful questions?"
5668Never was grief equal to Kummir all Zummaun''s, when he recovered from his fit:"Barbarous father,"cried he,"what hast thou done?
5668Noor ad Deen hearing him first, told Scheich Ibrahim of it, who asked who was there?
5668Noor ad Deen was loth to resort to this expedient; but what could he do in the necessitous circumstances to which he was reduced?
5668On his appearance he said,"Thou canst trace the descent of man?"
5668On his arrival there, Kummir al Zummaun inquired if he had done as commanded?
5668On his coming to the mouth of the cave, the sultan addressed him, saying,"Whence comest thou, where art thou going, and what dost thou carry?"
5668On his recovery he turned to the vizier, and said,"Is it possible thou canst have spoken the truth?"
5668On their appearance, he said,"What have you done in execution of the charge I gave you?"
5668One day he knocked thus, and the master of the house, who was alone, cried,"Who is there?"
5668One day, as I sat taking the cool air at my gate, a very handsome, well- dressed lady came to me, and asked if I did not sell stuffs?
5668One of them said to the other,"Is not the queen wrong, not to love so amiable a prince?"
5668Or do you come on purpose to tell me you no longer love me?"
5668Or is it want of confidence in me?
5668Or rather, did she not promise to see you, and restore those bitches to their natural shape?"
5668Ought you to treat your mother after this manner?
5668Perhaps it grieves him to be at such a distance from his dominions, or from the queen his wife?
5668Pray tell me what I am to think; whether my marriage with you is an illusion, or whether my absence from you is only a dream?"
5668Pray tell us your history, for it must be extraordinary; how did you venture yourself into this river, and whence did you come?"
5668Remember, too, that he would eat no salt with you; and what would you have more to persuade you of his wicked design?
5668S. Does it fly from me, that I should guard it?
5668See what has happened to you, by your own fault; and if I had not resolutely followed, to see whither you went, what would have become of you?
5668Seeing a handsome young man, she lifted up her veil, asked him with a smiling air, and bewitching look, whither he was going?
5668Seeing he did not enter, she asked,"Why do not you come into your house?"
5668Shall I go down the hills and valleys which I have passed overt''Shall I wander in darkness?
5668Shall I send for him to the presence?"
5668Shall we be soon in the dominions of the prince my husband?"
5668She addressed me, saying,"Young man, have you in your warehouse any female ornaments?"
5668She asked who he was, and what he cried for?
5668She drew near them, and having overheard them speaking pretty loud, said,"Gentlemen, what is the subject of your conversation?
5668She exclaimed,"What can you want at such a late hour, and where did you lodge last night?"
5668She is not afraid to expose her life for me, and would you have me regard mine?
5668She looked through a lattice and saw them, seemed frightened, and cried out,"What shall we do?
5668She replied,"Dost thou really love me?"
5668She replied,"Is it thy wish to know who slew the monster, and to reward the courageous hero?"
5668She returned a third time; and at that interview, when we were both warm with wine, she spoke thus:"My dear love, what do you think of me?
5668She said to him,"What disgust can I have given to you to ask me this permission?
5668She shook him several times, and finding he did not awake, exclaimed,"What is come to thee?
5668She took it into her hand, and examined it on all sides; after which she exclaimed,"Didst thou really purchase this on my account?"
5668She was in as great amazement at what her son told her, as at the appearance of the genie; and said to him,"But, son, what have we to do with genii?
5668Some days after, not knowing who I was, he asked me if I understood any trade?
5668Some moments after, the fairy said to prince Ahmed,"Prince, there comes my brother; do you see him?"
5668Some said,"Where is that fool going?
5668Speak, and tell me frankly, wherein I can serve you?"
5668Such being the case, what a fool am I to kill myself with grief?
5668Supposing you could resolve to give him up for me, and that you would follow me, ought I to consent?
5668Tell me then, wandering spirit, whence thou comest, what thou hast seen, and what thou hast done this night?"
5668Tell me, I beseech you, how I shall reclaim a disposition so rebellious to my will?"
5668Tell me, I beseech you, where was your wit or discretion, when you formed to yourself such a chimera as you have proposed to me?
5668Tell me, I conjure you,"added he,"what cruel lady is this, who forces people to love her, without giving them time to reflect?"
5668Tell us truly who you are?"
5668The Hindoo, with great impudence, replied,"That she was his wife, and what had any one to do with his quarrel with her?"
5668The apothecary inquired who was ill at her master''s?
5668The butcher now began to be somewhat alarmed, asking me who I was, and whence I came?
5668The caliph asked the criminals which of them it was that so cruelly murdered the lady, and threw her into the Tigris?
5668The caliph fell a laughing at his astonishment; and calling to him,"Scheich Ibrahim,"said he,"What dost thou want?
5668The caliph fell a laughing; by which the vizier recognising him,"Commander of the true believers,"said he,"is it possible it can be you?
5668The caliph was not displeased with Fetnah for the freedom of these words;"But may I,"said he,"rely on the assurance you give me of Ganem''s virtue?"
5668The caliph, moved with compassion, said to the fisherman,"Hast thou the courage to go back and cast thy net once more?
5668The caliph, who heard this, came to him and the other calenders, and asked them what might be the meaning of all this?
5668The captain in his turn demanded of the prince, whether he was not a debtor of the king of Ebene?
5668The cauzee laughed, and turning to the koord, said,"Friend, thou hast heard what has past; what further canst thou say?"
5668The cock answered the dog''s reproof thus:"What, has our master so little sense?
5668The cock standing up on tiptoe, answered fiercely:"And why not to- day as well as other days?"
5668The commander of the brigade demanded of the prince, Schemselnihar, and the jeweller, who they were, and whence they had come so late?
5668The eunuch perceiving he followed them, was extremely surprised:"You impertinent fellow,"said he, with an angry tone,"what do you want?"
5668The eunuch redoubling his pace, with difficulty got up to him,"Wither so fast?"
5668The farmer''s daughter then came to us:"My good maid,"said I,"can you restore my son to his former shape?"
5668The feigned cauzee, turning about to the merchant, then asked him why he did not return the money which Ali Khaujeh demanded of him?
5668The first question he asked on his arrival was,"Where was the king his nephew?"
5668The first question the vizier asked was, If Noor ad Deen was living?
5668The first who entered the room got between him and his mother, and taking the switch out of his hand, said to him,"What are you doing, Abou Hassan?
5668The fisherman replied,"My dear mistress, how shall I bear the least absence from you?"
5668The fisherman then said to him,"I wish to know if you were actually in this vessel: Dare you swear it by the name of the great God?"
5668The jeweller alarmed, asked her what was the matter?
5668The jeweller was much surprised at this resolution of the confidant, and said,"Certainly you do not consider that the caliph will never suffer this?"
5668The judge did not give ear to all that was said; but asked the cavalier if he suspected any body else beside me?
5668The judge perceiving that he looked upon him with his eyes open, was much surprised, and said to him,"Rogue, what is the meaning of this miracle?"
5668The king having asked what it was?
5668The lady immediately took up the veil, and delivered it to him, asking him whether he could read?
5668The lady loves you, and has a mind to make you happy; and will you, for a nasty whisker, renounce the most delicious favours that man can obtain?"
5668The lady, on the contrary, transported at the sight, exclaimed,"How, my lord, did you fear there was nothing ready?
5668The lady, who was pleased to see his confusion, said, once more,"My lord, what do you wait for?"
5668The matron guessing that he was in fear of her, said to him,"What is thy name, what are thy wants?
5668The mother was alarmed when she saw the grand vizier would take her son with him, and asked, upon what account the caliph wanted him?
5668The neighbours collected, and asked what assistance he wanted?
5668The nobles of Cairo were surprised, and whispered to one another,"Who is this stranger, to whom Mobarec pays so much respect?"
5668The officer going to the peasant, demanded of him how much he would have for the bird?
5668The people who gathered pepper came to meet me as soon as they saw me, and asked me in Arabic who I was, and whence I came?
5668The pretended cauzee then directing his discourse to the feigned Ali Khaujeh, asked him what he had to lay to that merchant''s charge?
5668The pretended princess appeared that very moment, and perceiving she had missed her prey, exclaimed,"Fear nothing, prince: Who are you?
5668The prince no sooner heard these words than he rubbed his hand over the ring, when a good genie appearing, said,"Prince, what are thy commands?"
5668The prince, vexed to the heart at having taken so much pains to no purpose, thought of returning;"But,"said he to himself,"which way shall I return?
5668The princess demanded how much the fifty jars might be worth in the isle of Ebene?
5668The pupil, in astonishment, exclaimed,"My lord, this abode is a heap of ruins, how can I invite the sultan here, it would only disgrace us?"
5668The queen answered,"Have you two names then?"
5668The queen, trembling with alarm, said,"What dost thou ask of me?"
5668The sage exclaimed,"What have such as we to do, my son, with the daughters of sovereigns or of others?
5668The sage observing his distress was afflicted at it, and at length said to the youth,"Will one look at the princess satisfy thy wishes?"
5668The sultan addressed himself to the Hindoo, demanded who he was, and wherefore he ill treated the lady?
5668The sultan asked the fisherman, how far the lake might be from the palace?
5668The sultan at these words exclaimed in agony,"Have ye slain them, or do they yet live?"
5668The sultan caused to be brought to him a chessboard, and asked me by a sign if I understood that game, and would play with him?
5668The sultan did so; when I said,"If I present two, will you give me your daughter?"
5668The sultan exclaimed,"Why answer ye not, and wherefore are ye silent?"
5668The sultan growing impatient, demanded of him again,"Where is your palace, and what is become of my daughter?"
5668The sultan perceiving his constraint, addressed him with great mildness,"Do you know, son, for what reason I have sent for you?"
5668The sultan replied,"What reason have you for such a supposition?"
5668The sultan replied,"You have indeed judged truly, but inform me how happens it, that you have with you no male protectors?"
5668The sultan smiled at the barber''s freedom, and replied,"Why do you ask?"
5668The sultan, after a long pause, again said to the two attendants,"Have you really put to death my innocent children with their guilty mother?"
5668The sultan, being much surprised, sent immediately for the fisherman, and said to him,"Friend, can not you bring me four more such fish?"
5668The sultan, eager to shew his gratitude to the gallant youth, said to the princess,"Shouldst thou know thy deliverer wert thou to see him again?"
5668The sultan, upon hearing this, said to the vizier,"We must enter this house;"and knocked at the door, when a person cried out,"Who is there?"
5668The surgeon paid her the same respect, and then asked a calender, who happened to stand by him,"Whether that lady was one of the sultan''s wives?"
5668The tyrant laughed, and continued his questions as follows: H. Wert thou ever in love?
5668The unfortunate youth lifting up his head, exclaimed,"What news dost thou bring?"
5668The vizier having stayed some time, and finding none of the merchants outbid him,"What do you stay for?"
5668The wicked old woman came running at the noise, and my brother seizing her, said to her,"Treacherous wretch, do not you know me?"
5668The young man having recovered, looked all around, and not seeing what he sought, exclaimed,"What is become of you, charming Fetnah?
5668The young man turned his eyes towards me, and said,"My good lady, pray let me know who you are, and what has brought you to this desolate city?
5668Then addressing himself to Zobeide,"Well, madam,"said he,"have you yet any thing to say against so certain a truth?
5668Then he said to them,"How will you carry away your goods?
5668Then she will throw herself at my feet, kiss them repeatedly, and say to me,''Sir, is it possible that you can suspect my daughter''s virtue?
5668There, possessed by his despair, he said to himself,"Where shall I seek my palace?
5668Therefore what conveniences have they more than we, that we should envy their happiness?
5668They insolently said to him,"You cursed cauzee, what reason have you to assassinate our master?
5668This made me one day take the liberty to ask the king how it came to pass?
5668Thou oughtest also to remember what another of our books says,''What signifies if one dies the next day after the death of his enemy?''"
5668Thus it happened to the persons above mentioned, but how was it with the affairs of Mazin?
5668Unable, however, to withstand the earnest desire of being satisfied,"Ganem,"said she, with a trembling voice,"is it you I behold?"
5668Upon entering into her presence, Zobeide exclaimed,"Where have ye loitered, and what has been the cause of your unusually long stay at the hummaum?"
5668Upon this I looked at him narrowly, and recognised him:"Ah, brother,"cried I, embracing him,"how could I know you in this condition?"
5668Upon this I replied,"My dear lady, how can I allot for you a proper dowry?"
5668Upon this Mazin exclaimed,"Wherefore, my lord, did you look at the book and then at me so earnestly?"
5668Upon this she frowned angrily upon me, and exclaimed,"What means that wound upon thy cheek?"
5668Upon this the sultan said again to his daughter,"How do you know that this prince has been transformed by enchantments into an ape?"
5668Upon this the young Syed said,"Thou ravest, O Hyjauje; who art thou that an angel should be commissioned for thy sake?"
5668Upon which the sultan exclaimed,"What fault appeared to thee in my mistress?"
5668Upon which, turning to me,"And thou,"said he,"dost thou not know her?"
5668Was it a reason sufficient for him not to cast his eyes on you, because she was somewhat younger?
5668Was it not enough to be afflicted by the death of so dear a father?
5668Was it you that took the gentleman''s purse from him?
5668Was not his father a dog, and the son of a dog, like you?
5668Was there any need of staying a whole month after my return, before you sent me word where you were?"
5668Was there ever finer singing, or better playing upon the lute?
5668We have at present all we want, and what can riches give more?"
5668We have often asked her,"Madam, do you want anything?
5668What a wonderful change is this from evening to morning?"
5668What answer could the jeweller have made in the condition he was in?
5668What are you disputing about?"
5668What can Hassan do with that?"
5668What can I do without you?
5668What can be the reason he does not use his right hand?"
5668What could Cassim''s widow do better than accept of this proposal?
5668What could I say when I saw myself so cruelly delayed?
5668What could hinder me from being a little moved at the pronouncing of so strange a transformation?
5668What crime can he have committed, that a man of his high rank can deserve to be treated thus rigorously?"
5668What crime have I committed?"
5668What cruel hands have put you into this condition?
5668What do you think of this plan?"
5668What evil genius possesses you, to make you talk at this rate?
5668What has he done to obtain from thee a lot so agreeable?
5668What has he done to you?"
5668What have I done to subject myself to the severe law of not being able to join with the only person I love?"
5668What have I done?"
5668What have vultures to do with turbans?
5668What have you been doing, that you came no sooner?"
5668What have you done to claim such a favour, either for your prince or country?
5668What have you done to kill this man?"
5668What impudence is this?
5668What is the matter?
5668What melancholy return have you received for your care and respect?
5668What name do you call it by?"
5668What proportion is there between the punishment and the crime?
5668What relation does he bear to you?
5668What say you, daughter, am I deceived in my conjecture?"
5668What say you, my lads?"
5668What says she to you?"
5668What shall I say to him at his return, when he inquires of me after her?"
5668What water was ever lighter or more delicious?
5668What will it be when you are obliged to part?
5668What will the world say of such sanguinary violence?"
5668What would she say of you and me?
5668What would the world say to hear you rave in this manner?
5668Whatever be the value of a diamond statue, is it worth the satisfaction of having you mine?
5668Whatever misfortune befalls me, I can not forbear asking, why you bedaubed your faces with black?
5668When Bahader and Amgiad were in the court, Bahader demanded of the prince, how the lady came into his house?
5668When I had heard these words, I replied,"How, dear lady, dare I presume, who am not worthy to be your servant, to arrive at such an honour?"
5668When Noor ad Deen came aboard, the first question he asked was, whither the vessel was bound?
5668When Noor ad Deen had ended his story,"And whither are you going now?"
5668When he appeared, the sultan said,"Art thou a judge of horses?"
5668When he beheld them he was struck with awe and dread; but recovering, he said to himself,"Why should I be afraid?
5668When he came to the door, he said,"Go in; you ought to know whereabouts your palace stood: look round and tell me what is become of it?"
5668When he had finished his communication, I said,"But where is the abode of thy beloved and thy successful rival?"
5668When he had reached the palace he found the sultan expecting him; upon which he made his obeisance, and said,"Will my lord honour me by his company?"
5668When he had ruminated thus, he said,"I am acquainted with the properties of the cap, what are those of the drum?"
5668When he saw that the slave hesitated to obey him,"Why do you not strike?"
5668When shall I enlist so gallant a troop again?
5668When she had done speaking, the caliph said to her,"I believe all you have told me; but why was it so long before you let me hear from you?
5668When she had rested a little, she said,"Were you not conversing about your unfortunate sister?
5668When she had taken her seat, she asked him, whether that was his house?
5668When the fisherman heard these words of the genie, he recovered his courage, and said to him,"Thou proud spirit, what is it you say?
5668When the master of the colt appeared before him, the sultan inquired whether it was purchased of another person, or had been bred by himself?
5668When the officers brought him before the magistrate, he asked him where he had the goods which he had carried home the preceding evening?
5668When the sultan had entered the princess''s apartment, he said,"What can have happened which has occasioned you to send for me so suddenly?"
5668When the thieves were gone, the prince said to the jeweller,"What think you of our adventure and condition?
5668When they approached, she arose and went to meet Mesrour, who advanced first; she asked what news he brought?
5668When they both had their cups in their hands, she said to him,"I know not how you express your loves in these parts when drinking together?
5668When they come to fasten you to the stall, why do you not resist?
5668When they had recovered, the first thing Schemselnihar did was to look about: and not seeing Ebn Thaher, she asked, with eagerness, where he was?
5668When they had rested a little, the fisherman perceiving the sultan, said,"Whence comest thou?"
5668When they reached the chamber, the man let go his hand, and sitting down, asked him again what he wanted?
5668When they were gone, Codadad, directing his discourse to the lady, said,"What place, madam, do you desire to go to?
5668When will the time come that I shall enjoy it without fear of a separation?
5668Where am I?
5668Where are they who enjoy quietly the happiness which they hold of her, and whose day is always clear and serene?"
5668Where could such a form as this have been created?"
5668Where does he live?
5668Where has that poor wretch got all this wealth?"
5668Where shall I find this sandman?
5668While she was thus bewailing herself, the grand vizier entered, and asked her if the fish were ready?
5668Whilst I was admiring its beauty, I heard from beneath the voice of a man, who immediately appeared, and asked me who I was?
5668Whilst he was mounting,"I forgot,"said the queen to Abdallah,"to ask you your nephew''s name; pray how is he called?"
5668Whither canst thou fly for refuge against the unjust prince who persecutes thee?
5668Whither do you go, sir?
5668Whither were you bound when you were seized by the black?
5668Who are you?
5668Who can assure me, that I shall be more successful than you have been?"
5668Who could ever have believed, that persons so highly obliged to me, and on whom I have spent my estate, could have used me so ungratefully?
5668Who ever saw it rain any thing but water?"
5668Who is he, that, notwithstanding the regard and respell he had for me, is in a miserable condition?
5668Who is your sister?
5668Who knows but he has brought her himself, and is hidden behind the hangings, to observe me, and make me ashamed of my dissimulation?
5668Who knows whether I shall ever see you again?
5668Who was that who came and spoke with me a little before the caliph entered?"
5668Who was your father?
5668Whom do you seek?"
5668Whom do you think now I ought to believe, you or my treasurer, my women, and myself?"
5668Why art thou not gone as well as the rest?
5668Why did not you request money of me, and I would have lent it you?
5668Why did you leave me?
5668Why did you not take care to wash your hands after eating of that cursed dish?"
5668Why do not you tell me which is dead, the husband or the wife?"
5668Why do you give any body the trouble to come and open the door when they speak to you?"
5668Why does he leave me here so long in obscurity?
5668Why does he not call me to his assistance?
5668Why should I not have been attended by eunuchs, and their chief, and a crowd of beautiful ladies?
5668Why should the grand vizier, and all those emirs and governors of provinces, who prostrated themselves at my feet, forsake me?
5668Why should you now doubt of the truth of what the holy woman told you?
5668Why, who are you, son,"continued she,"that you can have the assurance to think of your sultan''s daughter?
5668Will not the arrival of the caliph put me in mind of your departure?
5668Will not this step be injurious to that friendship?"
5668Will you absolutely take away the life of a poor innocent?"
5668Will you be pleased to allow me the consolation of giving her this last testimony of my affection?"
5668Will you do me the honour to come to my residence?
5668Will you permit me to visit her and look after my warehouse?"
5668Will you stain your hands and your palace with your own blood?
5668Will you still believe that Nouzhatoul- aouadat is alive, and that Abou Hassan is dead?
5668Will you still refuse me that pleasure I expect from your obedience, and suffer me to die without affording me that satisfaction?"
5668Will you vouchsafe to come and be merry with us?"
5668Would it not have been more for his honour and quiet that he had never run such a risk?"
5668Would you have him send you away with the same confusion?
5668You know by what medicine, or rather by what miracle, he cured me of my leprosy: If he had had a design upon my life, why did he save me then?
5668You know the conditions on which these ladies consented to receive us, and which we agreed to observe; what will they say of us if we break them?
5668You would have me then believe all you have told me?
5668Your company alone relieves me; but I conjure you not to dissemble with me: what news do you bring of Schemselnihar?
5668Zeyn was conducted thither, knocked at the gate, which a slave opened, and demanded,"What is it you want, and who are you?"
5668added she,"is this the return you have made for the kind reception I gave you?
5668after the hideous sacrifice you have just consummated, can you see me with so much satisfaction?"
5668and did not you see, as you came along, the place covered with black stones?
5668and do not you believe, that with such a sum you could become soon as rich as the principal of your occupation?"
5668and do not you know that you are at one of the gates of Damascus?"
5668and hast thou long been in possession of him?"
5668and how can I be a sultan without subjects?"
5668and how durst Scheich Ibrahim give them admittance, and partake of the diversion with them?
5668and how you who live in the same neighbourhood should be so little known by me?"
5668and if I may hope ever to see him again?"
5668and is it thus thou hast estranged from me my beloved wife and innocent children?"
5668and that she invented them on purpose to deceive you, who had given her no cause to do so, but received her with so much goodness and civility?
5668and to whom does this palace belong?
5668and why they broke open his door?
5668and why you are alone?"
5668and will my strength bear me out?
5668answered Abou Hassan, raising his voice; but looking at the lady, he said,"Is it me you call the commander of the faithful?
5668answered king Beder,"how can I be tired of so many favours and graces as your majesty perpetually heaps upon me?
5668answered she trembling,"who are you?
5668answered the caliph,"do you not know me?
5668are you not ashamed so to treat yours, who loves you so tenderly?"
5668art thou of this country?
5668asked the lady;"and why do you take the cup with your left hand, rather than your right?"
5668brother, are you one of those who believe me mad?
5668brother,"replied Queen Gulnare,"is not the princess yet married?
5668brother,"said Assad,"we have so little time to live, what need have we to quench our thirst?
5668but can ye reverse the decrees of God?"
5668but to no purpose, no one answered; upon which he came down, opened the door, and asked my brother what he wanted?
5668can you favour me with a dance?"
5668child,"said she,"what are you thinking of?
5668continued he,"how do I know she is alive?"
5668cried Noor ad Deen,"is it possible you can entertain such a thought?
5668cried Zeyn, in astonishment,"where could my father find such rarities?"
5668cried he, calling the ladies of the palace by their names, as he remembered them;"where are you?
5668cried she,"is it you the king my father has designed me for a husband?
5668cried she,"what have I done that you should leave me so soon?
5668cried the mother,"was your lamp then the occasion of that cursed genie addressing himself rather to me than to you?
5668cried the sultan,"is it possible that you are restored to me?
5668cried the vizier''s lady,"can you so calmly ask that question, after my son has been with you alone in your chamber?
5668cried they, laying hold of him,"and dare you say that you are not a robber?"
5668dare you say that the vizier is not my father?"
5668daughter,"said the king,"has any one lain with you last night?"
5668demanded the dog;"what would you have him do?"
5668demanded the genie:"did you not take dates out of your wallet, and as you ate them, did not you throw the shells about in different directions?"
5668did I say, madam?
5668did you not tell me you had forsworn wine?
5668didst thou not promise me enjoyment and pleasure?"
5668do not you think it very extraordinary?"
5668do you think she spoke to you of three things that were not in being?
5668dost thou deserve to live after the execrable crime thou hast committed?
5668exclaimed Ali Baba,"what have you done to ruin me and my family?"
5668exclaimed Buddir ad Deen,"is it a capital crime to make a bad cream- tart?"
5668exclaimed he;"whence came you, and where do those happy parents live who brought into the world so surprising a masterpiece of nature?
5668exclaimed my brother,"why do you beat me?"
5668exclaimed the merchant,"can nothing prevail with you?
5668exclaimed the walee,"dost thou dare to utter falsehoods before me?
5668has that accursed wretch betrayed thee, and torn thee from thy wife?"
5668hast thou at last thrown thy father from the highest pinnacle of happiness into a misfortune that must inevitably involve thee also in his ruin?
5668hast thou destroyed that excess of affection which he bare me?
5668have any of you any more business to do in the city?
5668have we not here affluence and ease, and what more can we enjoy in any part of the world?"
5668have you lost all fear of God and your reason?
5668have you the insolence to talk thus to your father and sultan?"
5668he exclaimed,"whom can we trust in these times?
5668he replied in a passion,"have you lost your senses, daughter, that you make such a dangerous request?
5668how could a buffalo bring forth a colt?"
5668how could you make so ungrateful a return for the service he has done you?
5668how would you have us go?"
5668how you came to be here?
5668in attempting the life of the object which I adore, hast thou not robbed me of mine?
5668insolent,"said he,"darest thou insult me yet?
5668is possible that you are still alive?
5668is that charming prince then dead?
5668ladies, whither do you command me to go in my present condition?
5668madam,"answered Harem, concerned for himself than for Fetnah,"you only take care of me, what will become of you?"
5668madam,"exclaimed he, eagerly interrupting her,"what miracle has restored you to my sight?
5668my brothers,"said he,"what is become of you?
5668my dear friend,"said she,"by your being here at this time of night you must be my husband''s comrade?"
5668my good lord, of what crime can I be guilty towards you, that you should take away my life?"
5668my lord,"replied the young man,"how is it possible but I should grieve, and my eyes be inexhaustible fountains of tears?"
5668my queen,"replied prince Ahmed,"do you say Schaibar is your brother?
5668my son,"cried the African magician with a sigh,"how can I forbear?
5668once so beautiful, what relief can you expect from us?
5668or give him reason to flatter himself a moment with being allied to one of the most powerful monarchs in the world?
5668or has some misfortune befallen you?
5668or have you left any thing behind you?"
5668or shall we flatter ourselves that we may ever see it?
5668prince,"cried he,"do you call so inestimable a present a small token of your gratitude, when you never have been indebted to me?
5668prince,"cried she,"do you think I jest with you?
5668princess, what do I say?
5668replied I;''did not you tell me the other day, that he sat down before your window when you opened it to water your flower- pot?
5668replied Scheich Ibrahim--"Sherbet?
5668replied Scheich Ibrahim;"who are you, and whence came you?"
5668replied Scheich:"what more service can I do you?"
5668replied Schemselnihar,"You, who know the cause of my tears, have you no pity for my unfortunate condition?
5668replied he,"how do you think I should obtain the favour you wish me?
5668replied he,"is that wretch still living?
5668replied he,"you would have me do something against my conscience, or against my honour?"
5668replied the fisherman,"why would you kill me?
5668replied the gardener:"do you imagine I will take these riches as mine?
5668replied the prince;"and what difficulties do you find in so doing?"
5668replied the queen,"why do you reproach me thus?"
5668replied the sultan;"who can have that audacity?"
5668replied the vizier,"could you think me capable of being so extremely afflicted at losing ten thousand pieces of gold?
5668said Ali Baba,"what is it you shew me?
5668said Buddir ad Deen,"what do you mean to do with a stake?"
5668said Codadad:"Whence come these miserable lamentations, which pierce my ears?"
5668said I,"will you have done, and begin to shave me?"
5668said Mobarec:"shall we not there find beautiful maidens?"
5668said he in a passion,"do you appear before me thus?
5668said he to himself,"I am scarcely out of my palace, and but just under the walls of Samarcand, and dare they put such an outrage upon me?
5668said he to himself,"has my fate brought me hither to deprive me of my liberty, which hitherto I have always preserved?
5668said he who spoke first,"do not you know your mother who brought you up, and with whom you have always lived?"
5668said he"and with what design were these cucumbers stuffed thus with pearls, since pearls are not to be eaten?"
5668said he, in a tone of indignation,"have not you been the cause of your wife''s death by your ill treatment of her?
5668said he, rubbing his eyes,"am I asleep or awake?"
5668said he,"I thought the rats and mice ate my butter and tallow; but it is you who come down the chimney to rob me?
5668said he,"Scheich Ibrahim, have I caught you at last?
5668said he,"can you suffer me to die an ignominious and painful death?
5668said he,"do you make a jest of me and laugh in my face, or do you believe I laugh at you when I speak seriously?
5668said he,"is it thus that a Christian dares to assassinate a Mussulmaun?"
5668said he,"must I suffer a death as cruel as it is ignominious, for not putting pepper in a cream- tart?"
5668said he,"unfortunate Buddir ad Deen, what will become of thee?
5668said he;"who placed you thus?"
5668said she,"does my child thus despise the work of my hands?
5668said she,"has Ali Baba gold so plentiful as to measure it?
5668said she,"what is the meaning of this?
5668said she,"what will become of me?
5668said the boy?
5668said the caliph to him:"who are these people that have presumed to take the liberty of diverting themselves in my garden and pavilion?
5668said the father,"is it not enough that I have lost them, but thou also wilt rush into destruction?
5668said the first,"how should he?
5668said the genie to her, pointing at me,"is not this your gallant?"
5668said the genie,"he is the cause of thy being in the condition thou art justly in; and yet darest thou say thou cost not know him?"
5668said the person whom he addressed,"have you never seen or heard of her?
5668said the prince,"do you not awake at these testimonies of love?"
5668said the vizier,"what favour?
5668said they to them;"do you not see that one is a vizier, the other a vizier''s son?
5668said they,"what but the necessity of parting from you could thus afflict us?
5668says the genie,"if you have a mind to be informed, open the vessel: do you think that I can be in an humour to relate stories in so strait a prison?
5668shall I be your partner and you mine?"
5668shall I tear up this eminence by the roots, and hurl it beyond the mountains of Kaaf?"
5668shouldst thou not rather have remained at home, and quietly enjoyed the fruits of thy labour?"
5668sir,"replied Gulnare"could I do less?
5668that thy unworthy uncle and thou repay me for all the kindnesses I have done you?
5668thought he to himself, when he awoke,"how much was I mistaken?
5668was there ever a greater resemblance?"
5668what are they, madam?"
5668what arms can I use to reduce him to submission?
5668what can we do for thee?
5668what did you hear?"
5668what has happened to you?"
5668what hast thou to say, and wherefore hast thou intruded thyself into the company of princes, as if thou wert invited?
5668what he is doing?
5668what will become of poor Nouzhatoul- aouadat?"
5668what would he have?
5668when the old woman entered; to whom she said,"Hast thou brought the young man?"
5668where are you at this time, whither has thy cruel fate led thee?
5668where are you?"
5668where can ye hide yourselves?"
5668where is he going?
5668which has condemned me to lead a life of calamities, if you will not permit me to have a consort, why did you permit me to find one?
5668who art thou, and of whom art thou the son?"
5668who can assure you of that?
5668who is it you call son?"
5668who will say to an unhappy Bulbul, Lodge?"
5668whom dost thou look after?"
5668whose this castle is?
5668why did you not let me perish miserably, rather than afford me your generous relief?
5668why do you not gore them with your horns, and shew that you are angry, by striking your foot against the ground?
5668why dost not thou swallow up that monster so revolting to human nature, or rather why dost not thou swallow up both the lover and his mistress?"
5668why?"
5668wicked Nouzhatoul- aouadat,"cried she,"what have I suffered for your sake?
5668you bring me the news of my son''s death?"
