11994Is there no distinction to be made between rigorous and barbarous measures?

16994how seldom do we hear a Frenchman speak English without betraying his country by his pronunciation?
43209But you have a camera; is n''t that enough? 43209 Have I the pleasure of addressing Madame Bazin?"
43209Indeed,I remarked, with every evidence of surprise,"and who got hold of the feather first?"
43209Then, of course, you must have known the noted village character Father Adam, who sold his donkey to this Scottish traveller?
43209These gentlemen travel for pleasure?
43209Well?

13048Do I not look well dressed, Mademoiselle?
13048Eh, what?
13048Have n''t you heard the news?
13048How do you expect me to earn my living if I have to go out of my way and wait a century outside a store?
13048Is it possible? 13048 Is it really so?

21256Is it possible,said I,"that there can be any gentleness in that creature?"
21256Where does Mademoiselle sleep?
21256Where is the masque?
21256Who are these ladies?
21256Who is it,demanded I,"that plays so well?"
21256A suggestion immediately arises in his mind-- how much might this land be made to produce under a more intelligent cultivation?
21256But who would feel any disposition to pilfer the wig of Sir Cloudesley Shovel, or the hat of General Monk, in Westminster Abbey?
21256Can your peasantry say the same?
21256For example, what could be so absurd as the natural realization of some of these capricious ornaments?
21256How is it, that the French, so generally gallant, can suffer their women to take the fork and hoe, and work so laboriously in the fields?
21256I demanded of this veteran, pointing to the flotilla, when the Emperor intended to invade England?
21256Indeed, why should we?
21256Is not the religion of our ancestors legible in the very ornaments of their house?
21256Is there any one oppressed with grief for the loss of friends, or what is still more poignantly felt, for their ingratitude and unkindness?
21256Now, why may not the same use be made of architecture?
21256Or is it with ladies as with the poet in Don Quixotte-- are love and flattery sweet, though they may come from a fool and a madman?
21256What artificial beauty can equal that of a corn- field?
21256What lady would chose to sleep in a bed, up the pillars of which serpents were crawling?
21256What would not English taste have effected with the capabilities of Rambouillet?
21256When he reached General Armstrong, he asked him, whether America could not live, without foreign commerce as well as France?
21256Whence does this happen, in a country where provisions are so much cheaper?
21256Where is it that I have read, that a Frenchman has no idea of gardening?
21256Who will now say that the French are not characteristically a good- humoured people, and that a lovely French girl is not an angel?
21256Why is a nation converted into a puppet- show?
21256Why might not Marmontel have lived in such a cottage?
21256Why, therefore, is not this disgraceful practice thrown aside?

2311How( cried he) cut my hair? 2311 You do not like the apartments?
2311But how were those victories obtained?
2311He asked in his turn if I was mad?
2311He asked whence we had come; and understanding we had been in Italy, desired to know whether the man liked France or Italy best?
2311How many high- sounding works on the other hand, are already worse than dead, or, should we say, better dead?

2311Then, addressing himself to me, asked, if the English did not every day drink to the health of madame la marquise?
2311They accosted my servant, and asked if his master was a lord?
2311What are the consequences of this cruel swaddling?
2311What glory is there in a man''s vanquishing an adversary over whom he has a manifest advantage?
2311What is the consequence?
2311What then, you will say, must a man sit with his chops and fingers up to the ears and knuckles in grease?

8412What had he to do, after forty years of reign; after having exhausted everything?
8412What had wealth to do there?
8412Who but men, architects, the artists of our day?
8412Who carved that new and bastard pointed arch in the very center of the middle door?
8412Who dared to insert that clumsy, tasteless, wooden door, carved in the style of Louis XV., side by side with the arabesques of Biscornette?
8412Who hath the oracle of his ashes, or whither they are to be scattered?"

46069And for what good was all this, one asks?
46069And how to repay such kindness?

35068He looked intelligent, too, and as a last resort I said:"''Could you, by any chance, tell me the name of the Swiss President?''
35068How can the French afford those roads-- how can they pay for them and keep them in condition?
35068How can they afford to keep it here?
35068How can they afford to maintain such a road through that sterile land?
35068How could Bonny, a mere village, ever have built a church like that-- a church that to- day would cost a million dollars?
35068How could they give a dinner like that, and a good bed, and coffee and rolls with jam next morning, all for four francs-- that is, eighty cents, each?
35068Keats( I think it was Keats, or was it Carolyn Wells?)
35068Mistral[ sa mère] eut une idée._"''_ Si nous faisons tapisser et plafonner ta chambre?''
35068Narcissa asked,"How would you get the car up there?"
35068Often we said as we drove along,"What little hotel do you suppose is waiting for us to- night?"
35068So I picked out a bright- looking subject, and said:"''What is the name of the Swiss President?''
35068What did the barbarians do there-- those hordes that swarmed in and trampled Rome?
35068What would you do then?"
35068Will the ships be running then?"
35068Would I go again, under the same conditions?
35068[ 11] The German Kaiser, once reviewing the Swiss troops, remarked, casually, to a sub- officer,"You say you could muster half a million soldiers?"
16943Are you master of your horses?
16943But,he persisted,"you will drink ale with me?"
16943But,said he,"you will give_ me_ a glass?"
16943How,they asked,"was she from home?"
16943Where shall we go?
16943Will it be worth our while to go so far to see a small cemetery?
16943You came to see these graves?
16943And how long can such a state of things continue without dragging down the women who marry such men?
16943And was it not very natural for it to jump from belief to infidelity?
16943Are such pictures as can be found in the French gallery, pictures which express sensuality and debauchery, productive of good?
16943Can we rest content with such a prospect?
16943Dead and buried nobility-- what is it?
16943Did I ever go out of my way to see even buried_ royalty_?
16943Do these things improve the morals of a city or nation?
16943Does the world not know him to have long been an open and thoroughly debauched libertine?
16943For should not the exchange for the greatest merchants of Paris be built in a stable rather than in a slight and beautiful manner?
16943Have you not thought to see the wide meadow rise before you, bathed in the rosy light of the evening when you saw it for the first time?
16943He met his friend, the marquis de Pastorel, one day, who said:"How are you, Horace; where have you kept yourself for these two years?
16943He wrote to a friend in France:"How can I forget the barbarous manner with which I have been treated in my own country?
16943His father at one time remonstrated with the old man for taking the boy thus early to the theater, and asked,"Do you mean to make an actor of him?"
16943How comes it, then, that so near Paris, agricultural implements are so far behind the age?
16943How could a man with an independent intellect succumb to such a church?
16943I wish to know what is deemed an outrage to the established government of France?''
16943If so, why is it that wherever naked pictures and sensual statuary abound, the people are licentious and depraved?
16943Is it well to look at so much nakedness, even if it be executed with the highest art?
16943Now is it not a significant fact, that within a bow- shot of Paris I found tools in use, which would be laughed at in the free states of America?
16943One of the men who had her in charge, cried out,"Do you wish the window of the carriage to be closed?"
16943Pure, guileless generous-- and poor, what could he do in New York?
16943Should a fiend be allowed to personate liberty longer?
16943Such is not the fact, as the Paris Exhibition proved, but_ who buys them_?
16943The gentlemen of the police knew nothing of bush- fighting, and might have exclaimed with the muse in Romeo,''Is this poultice for my aching bones?''"
16943The king was very angry, and asked,"Does he think that he knows everything because he writes verses?"
16943The subject is hackneyed and old-- what can_ I_ say about the Louvre which will be new to the reader?
16943This was the peasant under the walls of Paris-- what must he be in the provincial forests?
16943Was it not hard?
16943What can be the morality of any town, while such facts exist in reference to its condition?
16943What is the moral character of the first men in the empire?
16943When Aurore spoke of her snuff- boxes, he laughed heartily;"but,"said he to Sandeau,"why do not you become a journalist?
16943Who carries in his bosom that sentiment towards the man who procured his throne by perjury?
16943Who is the man now ruling France?
16943Will any one who has read Charles Dickens ever forget his"Curiosity Shop,"the old grandfather and little Nell?
16943said Dumas,"in what book?"
18080''But have you no partridges?''
18080''Et après?''
18080''Les liévres?
18080''Well, but have you no covert shooting-- no hares?''
18080''Why were they proud-- because red- lined accounts Were richer than the songs of Grecian years?

18080''[ 26]''What does Monsieur think?''
18080( for we are favoured with a little confidence from our young friend), and what can we say?
18080And as to girls-- who knows the impression left for life on young hearts, by the dead walls and silent trees of a French_ pension_?
18080Are either of our''memorials''likely to fulfil these conditions?
18080Are there bounds which they overstep and which we can not pass?
18080Are we really more straightforward and honourable than they?
18080Do these atoms on the earth''s surface hope to change the order of the elements, to serve their own purposes?
18080Do we dream dreams?
18080Do we exaggerate the evils of over- centralization?
18080Do we overdraw the picture?
18080How many"titled"people in these days possess the one, or accept the other?
18080How shall we describe it?
18080If rain were needed, would it not come?
18080It would seem reserved for the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to create a state of society when the question''Who is he?''
18080Le petit Alphonse s''est marié avec elle, comme ça il est un peu père de famille; nous l''épargnerons, n''est- ce- pas, monsieur?
18080Nous les chasserons sans doute si monsieur le veut;_ mais que feronsnous l''année prochaine_?
18080Of the ladies''attire what shall we say?
18080The mediæval architect is a sad and solitary man( who ever met a cheery one?
18080We are received in the ancient guard- room by a''young brother,''who has( shall it be repeated?)
18080What does it all mean?
18080What real sympathy has the kind, fat, fatherly figure before us with soldiers, saints, or martyrs?
18080Why do we speak of what is done every day in every city of France?
18080Why were they proud-- again we ask, aloud, Why in the name of glory were they proud?''
18080Why-- it may be asked in conclusion-- do we cling to costume, and prize so much the old custom of distinctive dress?
18080Would she be willing to repeat the follies of her ancestors in the days of the_ Trianon_ and Louis XIV.?
18080Would she complete the fall which began when knights and nobles turned courtiers-- and roués?
18080[ 13] We lately saw an english crest, bearing the motto"Courage without fear;"a piece of tautology, surely of modern manufacturer?
18080[ 63] Is it of no moment to be able to express our thoughts quickly and easily?
18080[ 6] All this, and much more the artist finds to his hand, and what does the architect discover?
18080for imaginary honours?
45790How old do you think?
45790I am a traveller, will it be permitted to inspect the château? 45790 No one save Jacques the huckster lives there, why should he excite any attention?"
45790Time hath wings; how, O mortal, hast thou spent thine?
45790( Just what sort of clients do chauffeurs have?)
45790And what, my dear Sir, may"Poliater"mean?
45790As for the springs, where are they and how are they used?
45790But which name stands first in the great court of God?
45790But, I exclaim, you say he never saw her until yesterday?
45790Can the naturalists inform me why all animals on the approach of a train or auto will, if possible, cross the track?
45790Certainly I do not propose to pay for an idle auto car, and can another chauffeur be gotten?
45790Certainly it does not seem a spot to offer much adventure, but then, who can tell?
45790Did he listen to the booming of these great bells rolling out their summons above us?
45790Do they dine here?
45790How did she use it?
45790How was it at Versailles in the days of the grand Louis?
45790How, by the way, came such a woman, as history paints her, to be daughter of a king who cared only for music and grapes, and the joy of laughter?
45790If so, how did the Terrorists overlook them?
45790Now,--stop.----What are all the cotton mills of earth compared to this stately shrine?
45790Shall we find it ahead of us; are there two such places in this world of the twentieth century?"
45790Should we pity her fate, or turn in disgust from a thing so degraded?
45790The Hôtel de Sens, unique and perfect but a year or so ago, is gone, and for what?
45790The heart of Louis le Grand mashed up by a painter''s knife and spread on canvas-- where now is your greatness, O King?
45790There must be young men there, but where are they?
45790Was there ever any more to him?
45790Were our late opponents such boys?
45790What is it,--why?
45790What were even French brutes made of to destroy a woman like that?
45790Where and how does the vast mass of the French nation bathe?
45790Where to now?
45790While singularly majestic, St. Étienne is simple to severity, but what do architects think about its façade and the odd- looking spires?
45790Why, since there would be few if any rivals on the earth, does not the nation complete it to its own glory?
45790Yet what do we find?
45790[ Illustration: THE CATHEDRAL AT AMIENS By permission of Messrs. Neurdein] Yes, yes, yes,--perhaps so, perhaps so, but, what is that to us?
45790[ Illustration: THE FORTIFICATIONS AT THE OLD TOWN OF CARCASSONNE From a photograph] But is that Carcassonne, or any town built by man''s hands?
45790[ Illustration: THE HOME OF MADAME DE SÉVIGNÉ AT VICHY By permission of Jules Hautecoeur] What do we find in Saratoga?
45790there would seem to have been no woman of importance though he had a queen-- Did that figure of leather ever know passion or love?
12990And the answer?
12990But you have been wounded in the leg, monsieur?
12990By the way,he suddenly asked me,"where was the idea of Harvey Birch, in the Spy, found?"
12990Could I tell him which was the window of his room?
12990Does Mein Herr see it?
12990Duke!--what Duke?
12990Madame goes to Paris?
12990Not left France!--Was he not carried into Switzerland?
12990Oh,said he,"it is a disease that only kills the rabble: I feel no concern-- do you?"
12990Sire, how would you like to be an honorary king?
12990That convent,I called out to the postilion,"is still inhabited?"
12990Wie ist diesen fluschen?
12990Would I try a bottle?
12990_ Et, il vino, signore; quale è il prezzo del vino?_demanded the_ padrone_.
12990--"And can we cross with your horses?"
12990Are rights thus to be purchased by concessions so unworthy and base?
12990Are they necessarily inseparable?
12990But why name a solitary instance?
12990Did you know him?"
12990How is it with, us?
12990How long would an English tide- waiter, for instance, keep his place should he vote against the ministerial candidate?
12990I asked him if he had ever known a true liberal in politics, who had been educated in the school of Napoleon?
12990I asked him why he remained in Paris, having no family, nor any sufficient inducement?
12990It may appear presumptuous in a foreigner to give an opinion against such high authority; but,"what can we reason but from what we know?"
12990Master Harry,"exclaimed the latter,"you are here, are you?"
12990My companion now looked at me as hard as a well- bred man might, and said earnestly,"Where did you learn to speak English so well?"
12990The family of Talleyrand- Perigord is so ancient, that, in the middle ages, when a King demanded of its head,"Who made you Count de Perigord?"
12990The"Par quelle route, monsieur?"
12990This he would not admit, for what man is ever willing to confess that his own opinions are prejudiced?
12990This is all that the throne does in England, and why need it do more in France?
12990Tieck?"
12990We got"_ monsieur sait-- monsieur pense-- monsieur fera_"--for"_ que voulez- vous, monsieur?_"We had no more to do with mountains.
12990We have some extraordinary words, too: who, but a Philadelphian, for instance, would think of calling his mother a_ mare_?

535And his soul was like a garden?
535And what although now and then a drop of blood should appear on Modestine''s mouse- coloured wedge- like rump?
535And when the present is so exacting, who can annoy himself about the future?
535And yet had not he himself tried and proved the inefficacy of these carnal arguments among the Buddhists in China?
535At what inaudible summons, at what gentle touch of Nature, are all these sleepers thus recalled in the same hour to life?
535But where one was so good and simple, why should not all be alike?
535Do the stars rain down an influence, or do we share some thrill of mother earth below our resting bodies?
535Durst I address a person who was under a vow of silence?
535Et d''ou venez- vous?''
535Gambetta moderate?
535I knew well enough where the lantern was; but where were the candles?
535Might he say that I was a geographer?

535Of what shall a man be proud, if he is not proud of his friends?
535Was I going to the monastery?
535Was I to pay for my night''s lodging?
535Was it Apollo, or Mercury, or Love with folded wings?
535What could I have told her?
535What shall I say of Clarisse?
535What the devil was the good of a she- ass if she could not carry a sleeping- bag and a few necessaries?
535What was left of all this bygone dust and heroism?
535What went ye out for to see?
535What were his reflections as this second martyrdom drew near?
535Where was it gone?
535Who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
535Who shall say?
535Who was I?
535Will you dare to justify these words?''
535he cried,''what does this mean?''
9480And when the start?
9480Can you imagine,wrote M. Edmond About, forty years ago,"an inn at the world''s end that cost a hundred thousand francs in the building?
9480Ho, mate, why thus so still and squat?
9480Is Thursday''s worldling, Friday''s sage? 9480 The lions?
9480What part, forsooth? 9480 Will folks read my stories when I am gone, doctor?"
9480A spaniel hastened at the cry,"Come, mate, what''s this to- do about?"
9480And did he not write--"I dreamed of an ideal love And Benedick remain?"
9480And how could it be otherwise?
9480Brother, pray with these, What part or lot have such as you?"
9480But why a disagreeable country?
9480But why write of Toulouse?
9480Can any indeed well be humbler?
9480Did she ever forgive the recalcitrant?
9480Did that backsliding in early life disturb the great painter''s stormy but dazzling career?
9480Did the lover look back, regretting the broken word, the wrong done to another?
9480Does the French language contain a more touching record than that of the great Navarre''s farewell to his Huguenot brethren?
9480Had, indeed, some worthy vine- grower poured out such a plaint in the poet''s ears?
9480How could he foresee the variety of new methods that were so soon to transform book illustration?
9480How long such a state of things will exist, who can say?
9480How to give some faint conception of the indescribable?
9480IV"Must all?"
9480Is it any wonder that facile success and excessive laudation should turn the stripling''s head?
9480Is not the solemn reception into Rome of instructed men and women among ourselves a matter of every day?
9480No tourists meet us here, yet whither shall we go for scenes sublimer or more engaging?
9480This was a towel- horse( perhaps the comfortably- appointed parsonage had set the fashion?
9480To which voice would he hearken?
9480Was it here that Richepin partly studied the mendicant fraternity, giving us in poetry his astounding appreciation, psychological and linguistic?
9480What must be their capacities in robust health?
9480What three words can convey so much pathos, heroism and generosity as"il gran riffiuto?"
9480What would my own Suffolk ploughmen have said to the notion of spending the night in an ox- stall?
9480When did a farm- labourer''s son among ourselves learn any more of agriculture than his father or fellow- workmen could teach him?
9480When did a rheumatic ploughman have recourse to Bath or Buxton?
9480When she sets about preparing a bed for him, he remonstrates--"Good dame, what means that new- made bed, Those sheets so finely spun?
9480When will Arthur Young have his tablet in Westminster Abbey, I wonder?
9480Where is the compensation of such liberality?
9480Where, tyrant, shall I shelter find; Advancing years what will they be, My home and comforts left behind?"
9480Who can say, this humble craftsman may yet have had much to do with his son''s aspirations?
9480Who can say?
9480Who can say?
9480Who can say?
9480Who cares a straw for the saint and her story now?
9480Who ever heard of an English labourer taking a fourteen days''rest at the seaside?
9480Who when visiting the beautiful little town of Saumur thinks of the historic figures connected with its name?
9480Who would choose to live on Ararat?
9480Why should Germans, Russians, Dutch, every other European nation, receive treatment equally generous?
9480Why should we be supplied, not only with every English newspaper we ever heard of, but with_ Punch_,_ Truth_, and similar publications to boot?
9480Would he yield, as have done thousands of well- intentioned men and women before him, to self- interest and worldly wisdom?
9480Would love and plighted troth overrule that insistent siren song, Vocation?
45567''Why, how does this relation affect her?'' 45567 A''igh wind, sir?
45567And if he did, would I need hear his suit? 45567 And where is Polperro, pray?"
45567Are you ill?
45567Do in winter? 45567 Do you own a house?"
45567Elsa, dearest, what are your wishes?
45567Fiend,he shrieked,"where is the parchment?
45567Fiend,he shrieked,"where is the parchment?
45567Fool, tenfold fool, dost thou call on my archenemy to adjure me? 45567 Fool,"replied the astonished artist,"who are you that thus accosts me on the highroad?"
45567In this room,she continued,"I would have the portrait painted, and as a setting can you not paint a portion of the room itself?"
45567Own a house?
45567The road to Tongue? 45567 Who shall describe the uproar and anger with which one was greeted as one stood in the midst of the nests?
45567Wie viel?
45567Will you let me see the book, please?
45567And who could be impervious to the charm of the English village?
45567Are you ready, lady, for the sitting?"
45567But why had this maiden so affected him?
45567But, after all, is not Rouen best known to the world because of its connection with the strange figure of Jeanne d''Arc?
45567Help themselves?
45567Her face bore a listless and far- away expression-- was it natural, or only assumed for artistic effect?
45567Here again a memory of Wordsworth is awakened, for did he not celebrate this valley in his series of"Sonnets to the Duddon?"
45567How can the poor devils who live in the foetid hovels which dot the Duchy of Cornwall''help themselves?''
45567Is it any wonder that the oft- trapped Englishman considers France a motorist''s paradise?
45567Shall he book us and our car for the boat?
45567She then appealed to her mother:"Will you permit the rash boy to leave in such a passion?
45567Show their gratitude?
45567Show their gratitude?
45567Sick with terror and yet determined even to death, Friedrich answered:"And knowest thou not?
45567This love in a day has become my life and what is mere breath without life?
45567To our half- serious remark that a lift would save visitors some hard work he replies with a shrug,"A lift in Mont St. Michel?
45567What have they to be grateful for-- these squalid, dependent, but always necessary outcasts of our civilization?"
45567What wilt thou?"
45567Who, though he had made a score of pilgrimages thither, could not find new beauties in this enchanted region?
45567Why give farther pain to the poor artist, who is already in deepest distress?"
45567Wot would you call a wind that piles up the waves so you ca n''t see yonder lighthouse, that''s two hundred and fifty feet tall?
45567XIV ODD CORNERS OF LAKELAND Who could ever weary of English Lakeland?
11298''And are the vines in a very bad way?''
11298''And do you never give him a lift?''
11298''And how did he behave?''
11298''And you do not put it elsewhere?''
11298''For the rats?''
11298''How many otters have you killed?''
11298''In winter,''I said,''you have an easier time?''
11298''So you have been to the Blessing of the Beasts?
11298''What do you want, cruel beast?''
11298''What is it?''
11298''Why?''
11298''Why?''
11298''Why?''
11298''Will you please tell me your quality?''
11298''_ Un peu de saucisson?_''he said to me, with a winning smile after handing me his snuff- box.
11298Addressing me, he said:''Pardon, monsieur, you are a stranger in this country?''
11298After all, why should not a beggar smoke?
11298All creatures seemed to grow drowsy, except the sociable little quails that kept calling to one another,''How are you?''
11298And what are the wages in return for such a life?
11298By what wonderful chance was it preserved intact, together with its towers, after the invention of gunpowder?
11298Can Nature never rest?
11298Could it be a cemetery, that grouping of stones that I saw upon the moorland?
11298Did he ever dream here of a great room in a palace, draped with black and silver, of a catafalque fit for a prince, of a coffin heaped with flowers?
11298Did the rock fall in here?
11298Do they think that they are going to make a hearty meal upon me this evening or to- morrow morning?
11298If I were not killed outright, who would be likely to come to my aid in such a solitude?
11298If tobacco is a blessing, why should a man be debarred from it because his legs are paralyzed, and he is obliged to live on charity?
11298In a few weeks what will have become of all this greenness and beautiful colour of flowers?
11298Is there no peace without bloodshed under the sun and moon, no respite from ravin even when the night is hooded like a dead monk?
11298Is this Albi?
11298Their appearance then is terrible enough; but what must that of the Red Penitents, who accompanied condemned wretches to execution, have been?
11298Then, changing the subject suddenly, he said:''What country do you belong to?''
11298Then, looking at me very fiercely, he said:''Are you an Englishman or a German?''
11298Was I in the grocery line, or the oil and colour line?
11298Was I_ dans les spiritueux_ or_ dans les articles d''église_?
11298Was it in time?
11298What if I were to slip and roll down the rocks?
11298What if I, were to get half- way, and were unable to go on or to retreat?
11298What is left of the feudal grandeur of Lescure?
11298What is my relation to them, and theirs to me?
11298What is the pale yellow flame that I see burning by the river where a slanted beam strikes down from a crenellated bastion of ruddy rock?
11298What more could I want?
11298What sort of face would a butcher of to- day make if he were asked to work on such terms?
11298Where now are the generous sentiments and the poetry traditionally associated with the vintage?
11298Where, we asked, could the otters be hiding themselves?
11298Why did it linger?
11298Why did men build houses in rows on the brink of these frightful precipices?
6164A shifting of the plane of the wings would, however, in all probability, give some impetus: the question is, would it be sufficient?
6164Almost too idle to rise, they arch their backs, and stretch their legs, as much as to say, Why trouble us?
6164And thunder-- how does thunder sound under the surface?
6164And what, oh blindest of the blind, do you imagine has become of the remaining four hundred and fifty?
6164Angles and wheels, cranks and cogs, where are they?
6164Are they dead?
6164Are"horse- stepple"and"stabbling"purely provincial, or known in towns?
6164At what price?
6164But see-- can it be?
6164Did he conclude he had a right to take what others only asked or worked for?
6164Did he dimly claim the rights of strength in his mind, and arrogate to himself the prerogatives of arbitrary kings?
6164Do the particles of water, as they brush his sides and fins, cause a sound, as the wind by us?
6164Does any one sorrow for the rook, shot, and hung up as a scarecrow?
6164Does he hear the stream running past him?
6164Does this reverie of flowers and waterfall and song form an ideal, a human ideal, in the mind?
6164Had they left her alone, would it have been any different?
6164Has your precious folly extinguished them?
6164Her brother Bill talked and threatened-- of what avail was it?
6164How are these people to be got at?
6164How are you going to capture people who blow themselves into atoms in order to shatter the frame of a Czar?
6164How is it to be distributed and placed in the hands of the people?
6164How should he sell any, pray, when he does not put the right sort into his window?
6164I wonder whether the man ever thought, as he reposed at noontide on a couch of grass under the hedge?
6164IV PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION When you have got your village library ready, how is it to be sold?
6164If so, why should not other books adapted to the villager''s wishes be on sale at a similar price in the country?
6164Is not theirs the preferable portion?
6164Is not this the most seductive of all characters in women?
6164Now, has not the farmer, even if covered by insurance, good reason to dread this horrible incendiarism?
6164Of course in winter it often happens that a flock of wild- fowl alight in passing; but how long do they stay?
6164Presently some one will ask,"Have you found a wicker''s nest?"
6164Put suddenly face to face with the transparent material which repelled him, what was he to think?
6164So, too, the summer days; the sun rises on the same grasses and green hedges, there is the same blue sky, but did we ever have enough of them?
6164That was all he knew of the Caesars: the apples were in fine bloom now, were n''t they?
6164The barrack- like Hotel des Invalides, the tomb of Napoleon-- was ever a tomb so miserably lacking in all that should inspire a reverential feeling?
6164The little lawn beside the strawberry bed, burned brown there, and green towards the house shadow, holds how many myriad grass- blades?
6164The marble tub in which the urn is sunk, the gilded chapel, and the yellow windows-- could anything be more artificial and less appropriate?
6164The next point is, Where does he hover?
6164The petty ripples of the Adriatic, what were they?
6164The real question is, how many breed?
6164The stoop, the dress which clothed, but responded to no curve, the sunken breast, and the sightless eye, how should he recognise these?
6164Three words, and where is the thought?
6164Venice has been made human by poet, painter, and dramatist, yet what was Venice to this-- this the Fact of our own day?
6164Was he not satisfied even yet?
6164What can be more explicit, and at the same time so aggravating, as to be told that you are a"mix- muddle"?
6164What have the sober mass of the working class to do with it?
6164What then is the cause?
6164What was the use of compelling him to do that?
6164What was there in Venice to arouse thoughts such as spring from the sight of this red bowsprit?
6164Where are the water- fowl?
6164Where is the kingfisher?
6164Where soon will be the water- lilies?
6164Who can doubt that the wild fowl come south because the north is frozen over?
6164Who knows what big processes of reasoning, dim and big, passed through his mind in the summer days?
6164Why are the rooks afraid of the little boy with the clapper?
6164Why did not the father interfere?
6164Why does not a painter come here and place the real romance of these things upon canvas, as Venice has been placed?
6164Why is the basking jack off the instant he hears the light step of a man?
6164Why omit fifty years from the picture?
6164Why, then, does the crow live on?
27881And is_ that_ all, Zelphine, and do n''t you think it about time that they should learn better; and who is the_ he_ in question, anyhow?
27881And pray who is this M. La Tour that you are all quoting? 27881 And what have we done to deserve such an opinion?"
27881And where did you come across them?
27881And why did Louis, the Father of his people, the good King Louis, imprison Ludovico all those years?
27881Are they crows''nests?
27881But how do they manage to sleep with the ghosts of all these good men who have been murdered here haunting the place at night?
27881Chenonceaux being Diane''s château and this her own room, what more natural than that her cipher should be here, as Rousseau says? 27881 Do n''t be_ too_ comforting, Walter, and why did n''t you tell me before that M. La Tour could not go with us to- morrow?"
27881Gentle Dauphin,she said to him one day,"Why do you not believe me?
27881How could I help asking him,this in Walter''s most persuasive tone,"when he has taken the trouble to come over here to dine with us?
27881How is Archie ever going to find out whether Lydia cares for him, Zelphine?
27881Pourquoi lui avez- vous coupé la gorge?
27881Then why have you added to Archie''s troubles by urging M. La Tour to go with us to- morrow?
27881Well, and even if she had been more than ordinarily nice to La Tour why do you trouble yourself about it, Zelphine? 27881 What became of her after Catherine turned her out of her château?"
27881What does it all mean?
27881What have we to do with St. Peter and his body? 27881 What is the little black- eyed woman talking about?"
27881Where the deuce does the fellow get them?
27881Why did you kill the Emperor Maximilian?
27881Why not tell him yourself, Zelphine? 27881 Why_ my_ friend?"
27881Yes, of course, how could I forget that evening? 27881 [ B]"And does he bring his family with him?"
27881And darest thou then To beard the lion in his den, The Douglas in his hall?
27881And hopest thou hence unscathed to go?
27881And what do you think that heartless Lydia said between her laughter and her sobs?
27881Angela immediately looked up trains and finding that the next train would be one hour too late for the boat, what do you think she did?
27881At first he looked perplexed and then indignantly turned to us for an explanation:"What ailed the lady, and why was she displeased?
27881Can you imagine anything more picturesque, or, as Miss Cassandra says, anything more unhealthy?
27881Did he kill the beasts with his big stick?"
27881Did you ever hear of anything so delicious?
27881Do n''t you think so yourself, Miss Cassandra?"
27881Do you remember how Angela and the Doctor trotted off to see the ruins at Exeter by moonlight?"
27881Do you remember what he said about having a tree planted over his grave?
27881Do you wonder that Lisa calls this a fairy journey?
27881Have you seen Chaumont, which she so unwillingly received in exchange?
27881I can hear you say,"Why not take them to Tours, for the French there?"
27881If her means were equal to her charitable intent, what would she not do for the benefit of mankind in all quarters of the globe?
27881It is quite evident that Brantôme''s eyes were bedazzled by the glitter of royalty, or was it the glitter of royal gold?
27881Not even when Miss Cassandra asked her favorite question in royal palaces,"How many in family?"
27881Now what is it to pass away, is it not to die, to vanish from the earth?"
27881Philippe is my name; why not Philippe?"
27881Polly has learned some English phrases from the numerous guests of the house, and cordially greets us with"Good- by"when we enter and"How do you do?"
27881Pourquoi avez- vous tué l''Empereur Maximilian?"
27881Walter calls it a piece of American effrontery, but I call it quickwitted, do n''t you?
27881We asked"Why?"
27881What did the good priest do when he landed on the island?
27881What do you think we have been doing this evening?
27881When she exclaimed with fervor,"Have you ever seen any one to be compared with the King?"
27881Why do many of the people, who do the châteaux so conscientiously, skip Angers?"
27881Why do n''t you and Mr. Leonard come too?"
27881You remember that her only reply was,''Is the King yet dead?''
27881no, we do n''t spoil sport; do we, Zelphine?"
13044And why, if the civil authorities are too weak to resist the torrent, is there not a sufficient military force to stem it?
13044Could this be said of a party in England, on a similar occasion?
13044How long will they continue so?
13044I suppose the French children are not so easily pleased as our English men and women are?"
13044Is Charles the Tenth ignorant of the actual state of things in Paris, and of the power of public opinion?
13044Is it possible your lordsip can taste any thing so barbarous?
13044L''estime, l''amitié, la confiance, ne suffisent- elles pas aux glaces de la vieillesse?"
13044Must she not tremble for the future, if not for the present, among a people so versatile as those among whom she is now thrown?
13044Of whom were they, the honoured dead, Whose mem''ry Love would here record?
13044Shall I ever see that delightful land again?
13044Shewing within their coral cell The shining pearls that there did dwell, But dwell no more?
13044Talk of the ideal in poetry?
13044The author must be a man of fine feelings, as well as of genius,--but were they ever distinct?
13044What cheered these men of genius during their toils and enabled them to finish their glorious works?
13044What may not to- morrow''s sun witness, ere it goes down?
13044What would our political friends say if they knew how strongly I urged him not to go, but to send his proxy to Lord Rosslyn?
13044Where are the civil authorities during all this commotion?
13044Who can be deceived in the house of a_ nouveau riche_?
13044Who can look on this heroic woman without astonishment at the power of endurance that has enabled her to live on under such trials?
13044Who is there that can boast an English birth, that would not wish to die at home and rest in an English grave?
13044Why fleets youth so fast away, Taking beauty in its train, Never to return again?
13044Why will health no longer stay?
13044You once more ask,"If he has got nothing to match the colour you require?"
13044and if mirrors could retain the shadows replete with despair they once reflected, who dare look on them?
13044exclaimed he,"is it possible that all my efforts to amuse that child have so wholly failed?
13044for when were the actions of public men judged free from the prejudices that discolour and distort all viewed through their medium?
13044how can I think that I must soon leave all those who love me so much, and whom I so dote on, without bitter regret?
13044it is now too late to think of marriage, and what, therefore, is to be done?
13044or does he hope to vanquish the resistance likely to be offered to this act?
13044where''s the crimson dye That youth and health did erst supply?
13044why is no second spring allowed to us?
14233At what time is the post due here in Auray?
14233But with what?
14233By whom?
14233Is this,he demanded,"the instrument with which the assault was committed?
14233Where''s the murderer?
14233Why?
14233You were not present, Monsieur le commissaire?
14233And are they not completed by death?
14233And charming ones, too, perhaps,--why not?
14233And did the rake belong to him or to some one else?
14233And how many draughts of it did it take for you to acquire all this wonderful knowledge?
14233And, indeed, what is there on which much can not be said?
14233Are n''t the saucepans like polished suns?
14233Are they a confused recollection of the monsters that existed before the flood?
14233As great as space appears to our eye, does it not always seem limited as soon as we know that it has a boundary?
14233But how can they?
14233But is the new as good as the old?
14233But what is, in fact, bad taste?
14233But where did the dragons come from?
14233But who cares about them?
14233But why bother about these things?
14233But, say others, do not his mission and his glory consist in going forward and attacking the work of God, and encroaching upon it?
14233By what magic will they be able to do so?
14233Do they know that we have cities and steeples and triumphal arches?
14233Do they wish to lodge a complaint?
14233Do you prefer Tom Thumb or the Museum of Versailles?
14233Does not this phrase of Fénelon apply wonderfully well to that period:"A sight well calculated to delight the eye?"
14233Has n''t this man had enough of slavery himself?
14233How many dreams have been dreamed beneath it?
14233How many nightmares have galloped under this cap?
14233Indeed, do not monuments grow greater through recollection, like men and like passions?
14233Is it not here that our own grief was nourished, is this not the very Golgotha where the genius that fed us suffered its anguish?
14233Is it not, then, their modesty that appeals to us?
14233Is not asceticism superior epicureanism, fasting, refined gormandising?
14233Is she dead to the world, and will men never see her again?
14233Jérôme, are you sure it is?"
14233Moreover, has it not been said that all the pleasure in these things was only imagination?
14233One is astonished at the way these people cling to their belief; but does one know the pleasure and voluptuousness they derive from it?
14233Or was it, I repeat, with a blunt instrument?
14233The oath?
14233Was it a temple?
14233Was it really with this that these women were hurt?
14233Was not the type of the old soldiers whose race disappeared around 1598, at the taking of Vervins, fine and terrible?
14233What are you regretting?
14233What do you think about it, Monsieur le commissaire?"
14233What has he ever been able to learn about them in the salons; could he see through the corset and the crinoline?
14233What is wanted nowadays is rather the opposite of nudity, simplicity and truth?
14233What was their use?
14233When do they open?
14233Where are the inhabitants?
14233Where can she be?
14233Where could the poor fellow ever have seen any?
14233Where is the poet, nowadays, even amongst the most brilliant, who knows what a woman is like?
14233Who has said:"Life is a hostelry, and the grave is our home?"
14233Who is the assailant?
14233Why does he torment this poor little beast?
14233Would their attitudes be more dejected, their eyes sadder or their prayers more pitiful?
14233where are you leading Father Mahé, canon of Vannes and correspondent of the Academy of Agriculture at Poitiers?
26524Brethren,said he,"why depart into the land of the stranger?
26524Have you no feeling of remorse for your crimes?
26524How many persons would wish to leave the kingdom?
26524Is it possible,he exclaimed,"that I have lost both the battle and my honour?"
26524The King,said Lalande,"wishes, in the exercise of his clemency, to terminate this war amongst his subjects; what are your terms and your demands?"
26524Then,said Cavalier,"if the King will not allow us to leave the kingdom, he will at least re- establish our ancient edicts and privileges?"
26524They pretend,said Louvois,"to meet in''the Desert;''why not take them at their word, and make the Cevennes_ really_ a Desert?"
26524What did you hear from the heretics?
26524What is the treaty, then,cried Ravanel,"that thou hast made with this marshal?"
26524What is your name?
26524What,cried Lalande,"are you the Catinat who killed so many people in Beaucaire?"
26524Whither wouldst thou go, traitor?
26524Why do they call you Esprit?
26524Your abode?
26524***** What are the prospects of the extension of Protestantism in France?
26524And does He not renew his miracles day by day?
26524And then, what is there to fear?
26524And what of the children left by De Péchels at Montauban?
26524And who would not have declared themselves"converted,"rather than endure these horrible punishments?
26524And, besides, if they were driven out of it, what would become of the industry and the wealth of this great province-- what of the King''s taxes?
26524As for arms, have we not our hatchets?
26524But if the place is thus stern and even appalling in summer, what must it be in winter?
26524But what became of the Huguenots at the galleys, who still continued to endure a punishment from day to day, even worse than death itself?
26524But what could he do?
26524But what had become of the insurgents themselves?
26524Catinat, of all others, to prove unfaithful?
26524Could she not fly, like so many other Protestant women, and live in hopes of better days to come?
26524Did not God nourish his chosen people with manna in the desert?
26524Fabre himself was consulted on the subject; his conscience was appealed to, and how did he decide?
26524For instance, there was a heretical syndic of Strasbourg, to whom Louvois wrote,"Will you be converted?
26524Had the priests themselves done_ their_ duty?
26524Have we not a country of our own, the country of our fathers?
26524He saw no prospect of his release, and why should he sacrifice her?
26524He was asked"Whether the Irish would fight any more?"
26524I know that you go to pray to God, and will you refuse me the favour of going to do so with you?"
26524I will give you 6,000 livres of pension.--Will you not?
26524In the streets, men meeting each other would ask,"Have you heard of Calas?"
26524It has corrupted the spring of life; it has delivered you over to the enemy.... Is this to last for ever?
26524Never say,''What can we do?
26524One day when passing along the Pont Royal, some person asked,"Who is that man the crowd is following?"
26524The King then rode up to the Enniskilleners, and asked,"What they would do for him?"
26524The furious brutes then took out the entrails and attached them to poles, going through the village crying,"Who wants preachings?
26524Was an assembly of Huguenots about to be held?
26524Was it because it was more conformable to the"genius"of its people?
26524Was she to abjure her religion?
26524What could they have done with you?
26524What has become of the family?"
26524What was she to do?
26524What was to be done?
26524What, then, had become of the Huguenots?
26524Where did he find refuge?
26524Who is to assume his mantle?
26524Who wants preachings?
26524Who was to be their leader?
26524Will not his Spirit descend upon his afflicted children?
26524Would_ he_ like to return to France at the daily risk of the rack and the gibbet?
26524are you one of the preachers, forsooth?"
26524do n''t you blush to look upon the man in whose blood you traffic?
26524now I have got you, how do you expect to be treated after the crimes you have committed?"
26524said Voltaire, on first seeing him,"my poor little bit of a man, have they put_ you_ in the galleys?
26524to massacre the Camisards by way of teaching them a better religion?
19983And Monsieur le Marquis?
19983Boat, sir, boat?
19983Coach, sir, coach?
19983Do you know that lady?
19983Do you not think the Signorina exceedingly like Madame Pasta?
19983Do you see Mademoiselle----, dancing in the set before you?
19983Désirée, où est Désirée?
19983Est- ce que monsieur compte me présenter tout ceci?
19983Go and see what?
19983How do you address this lady-- as Her Highness?
19983How do you make that out, Sir William?
19983How long do you mean to be absent?
19983I hope you have breakfasted?
19983Is America anywhere near Van Diemen''s Land?
19983It is, indeed; what is your fare?
19983London, sir, London?
19983Savez- vous, mon ami, où est l''Hôtel d''Angleterre?
19983Then why not adopt it?
19983Were is Désirée?
19983What do you think I_ ought_ to get for carrying this load,''sqire?
19983Where?
19983Why does she not bear his name, if that be the case?
19983You get notes occasionally from the lady, or you could not read her scrawl so readily?
19983_ N''est- ce pas_?
19983---- que j''ai l''honneur de voir?"
19983After a moment''s delay the door was cautiously opened, and the captain, in his gruffest tone, demanded,"Cur vully voo?"
19983After asking me a few questions concerning the country, he very coolly continued--"Et combien de temps avez- vous passé en Amérique, monsieur?"
19983As we were walking together, arm and arm, my companion suddenly placed a hand behind him, and said,"My fine fellow, you are there, are you?"
19983But did I not condemn the want of historical truth in its pictures?
19983But what is all this compared to the constant accessions of Europeans among ourselves?
19983Can your experience suggest anything more?
19983Did I not think he had done gross injustice to the noble and useful order of the Templars?
19983Does this augur good or evil, for the world?
19983He clearly does not love us; but what Englishman does?
19983He related the story of M. Cloquet and the cancer, with great unction, and asked me what I thought of that?
19983He who is all attention and smiles to the lady?"
19983How is it with you?"
19983How know we that such is not the origin of comets?
19983I get no privileges by my birth; whereas, in England, where I have been, it is so different-- And I dare say it is different in America, too?"
19983If any prince should inquire,--"Who is this that approaches me, clad so simply that I may mistake him for a butler, or a groom of the chambers?"
19983If these views are correct, why may not an English writer secure a right in this country, by selling it in season, to a citizen here?
19983If we are any better ourselves, is it not more owing to the absence of temptation, than to any other cause?
19983In putting into the mouth of Falstaff the words,"Shall I not take mine ease in mine inn?"
19983In what manner?"
19983It could not possibly be the consumption of a country-- he did not say it, but he evidently thought it-- so insignificant and poor?
19983Madame Pasta played_ Semiramide_"How do you like her?"
19983Now will it be pretended that his right is lost, always providing that his own is the first_ American_ publication?
19983Of what avails our beautiful glass, unless we know how to cut it?
19983On entering, they eagerly inquired if"I had not been charmed, fascinated; if any thing could be better played, or more touching?"
19983On whom do you imagine the curtain will rise?
19983This startled A----, who, having full faith in my nautical experience, asked what we were to think of it?
19983Were the earth dissolved into gases by fusion, what would become of its satellite the moon?
19983What became of the precedency of the married lady all this time?
19983What more could any reasonable man ask?
19983When two regiments assault each other, it is in compact line--""How,"I interrupted him,"do not you open, so as to leave room to swing a sabre?"
19983Why do not these people appear in America?
19983Why should we go to the_ restaurateurs_ to eat?
19983Will this happen?
19983_ Tenez_--do you see that gentleman who is standing so assiduously near the chair of Madame de S----?
19983exclaimed my country neighbour;"why so, sir?"
19983mon frère!--que fais- tu?"
19983my fancy, whither dost thou go?"
19983or of what great advantage, in the strife of industry, will be even the_ skilful_ glass- cutter, should he not also be the_ tasteful_ glass- cutter?
19983or, do they come, and get absorbed, like all the rest, by the humane and popular tendencies of the country?
8819Are you a Belge?
8819But how in the world,I asked of my guide,"did you know that all these people were wanting to sell?"
8819But why?
8819Do?
8819Have you?
8819How so?
8819Où allez- vous, Monaco?
8819Vat ish he? 8819 What am I to do?"
8819What countryman are you?
8819What countryman do you say you are?
8819What is this life, if it be not mixed with some delight? 8819 Which monsieur is the happy possessor of card number nine?"
8819Who art thou?
8819Why do you want to see Brueghel?
8819Why? 8819 Yet you say you are English?"
8819You think I am a German?
8819''Why then,''said they,''do you not immediately lead us thither, before our blood is quite parched?''
8819An inflammation of the lungs?
8819And what delight is more pleasing than to see the fashions and manners of unknown places?
8819And, after having looked and dreamed over that figure, could one come to Bourges and not think of that heroic and fatal struggle?
8819Are you German?"
8819Are you a doctor, and do not recognise Jäger garments?
8819Bourges, which is in Berry, which is in the very centre of France?
8819Brightening to greater brilliancy as he turns to me:"Will you buy de last number of my paper?
8819But what were these_ utriculares_?
8819But why a lighthouse here?
8819But-- had I come upon a nursery of hallelujah lasses?
8819But-- is not that sufficient?
8819Does the reader know how strictly the observance of Lent was enforced down to the Civil Wars in England?
8819Had a cunning jackdaw, as in the''Gazza di Ladra''carried it off, or had a child tumbled it out of an attic window on to the leads?
8819Had he been so left, what would she have done?

8819Now what is the origin of this extraordinary custom-- a custom that is childish, and yet is so curious that one would hardly wish to see it abolished?
8819Now, what is the result of all this outlay?
8819On the obverse it bears a representation of an inflated skin of a beast( a calf?
8819One morning my Jew friend said to me:"Do you want to see de, what you call behind- de- scenes of Florence?
8819Or-- is it possible that there is such a little creation only visible to man when he is subject to certain influences?
8819Presently after me came the guard:"Would not Monsieur like to descend?
8819She vas a very vicked voman; she poisoned her fader.--Do you see dis littel nick?
8819The Teutons looked up at the military on the cliffs and flung at them the insolent question:"Have you any messages for your wives in Italy?
8819The reader may ask-- If you are writing a book on Provence and Languedoc, why give us Bourges?
8819Tink so?"
8819Warts( a labourer held up a horny hand, the middle joint of the little finger disfigured with such excrescences)?
8819Was it of silver or of brass?
8819Was it worth soiling his fingers over or not?
8819Were the nights to be made hideous with Salvation Army howls?
8819What had or would happen?
8819What is M. Sadi- Carnot?
8819What was to be done?
8819When the retreat was at an end he button- holed him, and asked,"Well, how did you get on?"
8819Where is the wife?"
8819Why did I wander through Provence, the land of troubadours, if I were no troubadour?
8819Why not?
8819Will you come to my office, and bring your luggage?"
8819Would any English and American travellers desert Montecarlo for a day to see a Sadi- Carnot?"
8819Would you like to see my drawings?
8819You understand?

17624And the_ Catullus_,_ Tibullus_, and_ Propertius_?
17624And the_ Prudentius_--good M. Hartenschneider-- do you possess it?
17624But have you no old paintings, Mr. Vice Principal-- no Burgmairs, Cranachs, or Albert Durers?
17624But is it_ too late_ to erect his statue? 17624 But our Shakspeare and Milton, Sir-- what think you of these?"
17624But tell me, worthy and learned Sir,( continued I) why so particular about the_ Statius_? 17624 But where( replied I) is the_ statue_ of this heroic collector, to whom your library is probably indebted for its choicest treasures?
17624But you have doubtless_ dined_?
17624Could the Professor facilitate that object?
17624Do you observe, here, gentlemen?
17624Do you then overlook the_ Danube_?
17624If_ these_ delight you so much, what would you say to our_ professors_?
17624Might I have a copy of it-- for the purpose of getting it engraved?
17624Observe yonder--continued the Abbot--"do you notice an old castle in the distance, to the left, situated almost upon the very banks of the Danube?"
17624Placetne tibi, Domine, sermone latino uti?
17624What is the matter, Sir, am I likely to be intrusive?
17624What, BUT the edifice which contains THE PUBLIC LIBRARY?
17624Where are your_ Aldine Greek Hours_ of 1497?
17624Wherefore was this?
17624Which be they?
17624Who might this be?
17624Would I allow him to engrave it?
17624Would any sum induce you to part with it?
17624_ Bibliothecam hujusce Monasterii valdè videre cupio-- licetne Domine? 17624 ( Upon whom, NOW, shall this task devolve?!) 17624 ( exclaimed the professor-- for M. Le Bret is a Professor of belles- lettres),I observe that you are perfectly enchanted with what is before you?"
17624Among the female figures, what think you of MARY MAGDALENE-- as here represented?
17624And where will you find female penance put to a severer trial?
17624Below the colophon, in pencil, there is a date of 1475: but quære upon what authority?
17624Bernhard?"
17624But what has an honest man to fear?
17624But what then?
17624But why do I talk of monastic delights only in_ contemplation_?
17624But you will doubtless take the_ Monastery of Göttwic_ in your way?"
17624Can not he displace one of these nameless marshals, who are in attitude as if practising the third step of the_ Minuet de la Cour_?"
17624Do you forbid the importation of an old Greek manual of devotion?"
17624He ought to have a splendid monument( if he have it not already?)
17624He said--"where will you find truth unmixed with fiction?"
17624He talked French readily, and we all four commenced a very interesting conversation,"Did any books ever travel out of this library?"
17624Here are twenty golden pieces:"( they were the napoleons, taken from the forementioned silken purse[91])--"will these procure the copy in question?"
17624I asked him, why?
17624I asked my sable attendant, if this book could be parted with-- either for money, or in exchange for other books?
17624In a word, allegory, always bad in itself, should not be_ mixed_; and we naturally ask what business lions and human beings have together?
17624Is he alive?
17624Is it thus, thought I to myself, that"they order things in"Germany?
17624Is one word further necessary to say that a finer copy, upon paper, can not exist?
17624It must be an exquisite production; for if the_ plaster_ be thus interesting what must be the effect of the_ marble_?
17624Le Bibliographe?"
17624N''est- ce- pas possible que vous passiez par Munich à votre retour de Vienne?
17624Need I again remark, that this country was enchantingly fine?
17624Silence ensuing, we were asked how we liked the church, the organ, and the organist?
17624Tell me, who are these marshals that seem to have no business in such a sanctuary of the Muses-- while I look in vain for the illustrious Eugene?"
17624The roof, which is of an unusual height, is supported by pillars in imitation of polished marble... but why are they not marble_ itself_?
17624To another question--"which of Shakspeare''s plays pleased him most?"
17624What might not the pencils of Turner and Calcott here accomplish, during the mellow lights and golden tints of autumn?
17624What might this be?
17624What shall we say?
17624Why should not the book have been printed in Bohemia?
17624Will you allow me to propose a fair good copy of that admirable performance, in exchange for your Statius?"
17624Will you believe it-- I have not visited, nor shall I have an opportunity of visiting, the_ Interior_?
17624Would you believe it?
17624You would not like to tumble down from hence?"
17624[ 38] What think you of undoubted proofs of STEREOTYPE PRINTING in the middle of the sixteenth century?
17624[ 4] And what should be the_ object_ of this courtly visit?
17624and PRINTED BOOKS?
17624said the guide-- pointing to the coping of the parapet wall, where the stone is a little rubbed,"I do"--(replied I)"What may this mean?"
44777But what, Doctor, what do you mean? 44777 Did you try, Jim?"
44777Do you see this knife and bloody cravat, gentlemen? 44777 Have you seen him?"
44777I have been told,said one of the ladies,"that some of the Indians have a number of wives: is that so?"
44777In what way?
44777Oh, I am so happy to have the honour of seeing you, Sir, and of speaking to you-- you have made all these paintings?
44777Seen him? 44777 Seen them?
44777So he did,said Jim;"and who could say otherwise, when the Doctor poked his ugly face so suddenly in amongst them?
44777Then you have seen them''?
44777Then you have seen them?
44777There,said he,"is n''t she a roarer?
44777This leather strap-- gentlemen, do you see it? 44777 Well, Jim,"said I,"what do you think of the King, Louis Philippe?"
44777Well, now,said Jeffrey,"you do n''t say so?"
44777Well, tell the Doctor I want to know what they do with so many?
44777Well,said I,"never mind, he and I will manage that; it is after midnight, and I suppose the other houses are all shut?"
44777Well,said Jim, in broad English,"some_ fish_ there, I guess, ha?
44777What do you call a tax?
44777Where you live?
44777Why is that?
44777Why not kill them?
44777You sweep dirt in the road?
44777You think so?
44777''Do you know the white chief who is visiting his friends this night on the bank yonder where we see the lights?''
44777--e--(hic)--e-- and the-- r breathin, he--(hic)--e-- in thee-- ir noses?"
44777And they naturally put the question at once--"What state would the country be in if the military and police were all taken away?"
44777But I dare say a little_ washing_ and living in a city would bring them nearly white?
44777But stop, he wo n''t tell the Doctor that, will he?
44777By the way, these fellows are not from the coast-- they are from a great way back, I dare say?"
44777Come, will you, Daniel?
44777Do n''t you think it is wrong?"
44777Doctor,"said she,"I hope you do n''t accuse the ladies of London of drinking gin?"
44777He said, the gentleman asked him if he believed it?
44777He said, the gentleman then asked him why he thought those poor ignorant animals the hyenas would go there?
44777He''ll recollect me, wo n''t he, Daniel?
44777How can any good result from this?
44777How long have_ you_ bin from there, sir?"
44777I do n''t suppose there is another house open in this darned outlandish place at this time of the night; what the devil shall I do?
44777I hope you have not so bad an opinion of white women as that?"
44777I suppose you are going to stop awhile in Birmingham?"
44777I suppose you kept pretty much back in the mountains?
44777I told her I was n''t from_ any quarter_, I was from_ half_--half the globe, by God, and the better half too-- wasn''t I right, stranger?
44777I would n''t for the world hurt the poor old man''s feelings-- no, Daniel, not for twenty bracelets-- what shall we do?"
44777I would now ask why it do n''t make good people of the pale faces living all around us?
44777I''m damned anxious to meet them: you''ve seen them, I suppose?"
44777In advancing towards them, the one who seemed to be the leader of the party turned around and exclaimed,"Oh, here comes Mr. Catlin, I believe?"
44777Jeffrey said,"Why, ma''am, it is what in our country means a''_ lot_:''you know what they call a''_ lot_''here?"
44777Jim asked,"What have all those poor animals and birds done that they should be shut up to die?
44777Madam,"said he,"what have you?"
44777Some one of the ladies then told him she feared he did not admire the ladies enough?
44777That_ Roman- nose_ is a magnificent fellow-- he''s got no wife, has he, Daniel?"
44777The chief said,''But you did not intrust your dog to my care, did you?''
44777The reverend gentleman inquired--"Do you not think that the Great Spirit sometimes punishes the Indians in this world for their sins?"
44777These are fine men-- they grow tea, I suppose, though?"
44777They had first asked him if he was married?
44777They never have murdered anybody-- they have not been guilty of stealing, and they owe no money; why should they be kept so, and there to die?"
44777They then asked him why he did not get him a wife?
44777Two or three inquired what a"_ heap_"was?
44777When he got through, and entered his estimates in his book, Jim asked him"if he found anything in his head?"
44777You''ll think by and by that I am a pretty good customer; ha, Daniel?
44777[ 7] What could be done?
44777_ Both were hung._"Do you see this short gun, gentlemen?
44777_ Chee- au- mung- ta- wangish- kee, Bobasheela._"My friends, will you allow me to move along towards that good old fellow?
44777_ She was hung._"Do you see that club, gentlemen?
44777asked one of them,"if a poor man is hungry and sees a fine fish in the water, is he not allowed to spear it out and eat it?"
44777they put me out at every step; they are so eternally ignorant; did you ever see the like?
44777what a beautiful colour he was, ha?
44777what are you about?
21996Are not German names taboo?
21996Did many travelers come to Mougins from America?
21996Did you know Lamy?
21996Do any fat men live up here?
21996Had you looked up before you spoke?
21996Is it old and all right?
21996Perhaps we can drive down through the city-- why not?
21996Pierre,I cried,"where did you drop from?
21996Say, where is this town Fréjus?
21996So even in Cagnes the young girls know how to give orders to M. le Curé? 21996 Tell me, then,"he said,"what was your thought of me when you saw me coming up the hill to the promenade with my burden of lettuce heads?
21996What do you say,_ mon vieux_?
21996Where is Fréjus?
21996Why not?
21996Why should one poke around a church, especially at night and this night?
21996And another world even from that of the rest of the French Riviera?
21996And in the brief time that we are a- wing, do we really love unusual sights and novel things?
21996And when I told you that I had seen Lamy playing as a boy on the spot where his statue stands?
21996And where would it go after you opened the waste- pipe?
21996And you are an American, are n''t you?"
21996Are Germans and Russians disturbing the peace of Europe any more or any differently than Northern Europeans have always done?
21996But could a chorus of milkmaids to satisfy New York or Paris be recruited outside New York or Paris?
21996But could we correct the mistake?
21996But in the twilight, what skeptic, what Puritan resists the call to worship of the Catholic ritual?
21996But is it known that he is responsible for the most exquisite of scents of milady''s boudoir?
21996But we?
21996But why another world?
21996Did we not agree that Villeneuve- Loubet was superb?
21996Do fruit blossoms, utilitarian embryo, compare for a minute with real flowers?
21996Even when they are of one''s own blood, is there inspiration in the daily reminder of heroes?
21996Had there been a gate in her grandmother''s time?
21996Had we been hurrying through toward Grasse in automobile or tram, we would probably have exclaimed"how picturesque"or"interesting, is n''t it?"
21996Had we come up from Nice that afternoon and did we plan to stay for a day or two with Jean Alphonse at the Hôtel Beau- Site?
21996Have you been mistaken?
21996Have you ever lived in a wagon, Monsieur?
21996How could they get a hold on the sand with some tentacles while others were grabbing you?
21996How do I know?
21996How do you manage when the rock is frozen over with snow and ice?"
21996How many from Mougins have followed Lamy''s example?
21996How much did the Englishman''s love of the Riviera have to do with the Entente Cordiale?
21996How was the music going?
21996I would surely be lacking in my duty--""What is Mougins?"
21996If they had limitations, would they have wanted to come?
21996If this was learning to fly, what was flying?
21996In buildings and villagers have you found anything as fascinating as that purple and red on the mountain snow over there?
21996In exploring, is not our greatest joy and delight in finding something familiar, something we have already known, something we are used to?
21996In the town you are just at the beginning of the peninsula whose conical form and unshutinness( is that a word: perhaps I should have used hyphens?)
21996Is it the Arab at his tent door, looking with dismay and dread at the approach of the Bagdad Railway, who is the fool, or we?
21996Is not lavender the only scent in the world that does not lose by an overdose?
21996Is she going to watch the sunset?
21996Is there any place desirable for living purposes in which the railway does not obtrude?
21996Is wisteria useful?
21996No?
21996Perhaps we were artists?
21996Put them all under the same dispensation and where would be your races?
21996Since human nature is the same the world over, is it surprising that the tricks calculated to captivate and deceive are the same?
21996Sorry for me, were you not?
21996The following morning he looked out of the window, and asked,"What is that town up there behind Cannes, the big one right under the mountains?"
21996To whom was the mediocrity?
21996Trout?
21996Unless you have come to Cagnes to stay?"
21996Was not her lot, cast in this picturesque spot, most enviable?
21996Was not that a reason for going there?
21996What equals the color of the judas- tree in bloom?

21996What part did the Riviera play in the Franco- Russian Alliance?
21996What was our impression of her country?

21996Why is it that some of the most delicate things are associated with the pig, who is himself far from delicate?

11996_**And you, Sir, are without doubt, a good patriot?"
11996_--Is it for Nantes that you petition?

11996_[It''s unlucky, but what can be said in such cases?"]
11996* What are the death of the King, and the murders of August and September, 1792, but the Magna Charta of the republicans?
11996*"And how the deuce can you expect me to march well, when you have made my shoes too tight?"

11996--"Well, but the Robespierrians-- you must have gained by them?"
11996--"You are an aristocrate then, I suppose?"
11996--(Frenchmen, Frenchmen, will you never cease to be Frenchmen?)
11996--Do you not read, and call me calumniator, and ask if these are proofs that there is no public spirit in France?
11996--Patriots of the North, would you wish to see our soldiers clothed by the same means?
11996Admitting these accusations to be unfounded, what ideas must the people have of their magistrates, when they are credited?

11996Are our principles every where the mere children of circumstance, or is it in this country only that nothing is stable?
11996Are these literary miners to penetrate the recesses of private life, only to bring to light the dross?
11996But what can compensate for the injury done to the people?
11996Can they with safety suffer it to be exercised by any other persons?
11996Could the aristocrates, then, flatter themselves with the hope of making you believe I had the intention of disarming you?

37937But what is this that, with Legislative Insignia, ventures through the hubbub and death- hail, from the back- entrance of the Manège? 37937 But who,"my countryman went on, in the relentless English way,"checks the weigher?"
37937Who can help the inevitable issue; Marseillese and all France on this side; granite Swiss on that? 37937 ''He had on the sky- blue coat he had got made for the Feast of the_ Être Suprême_''--O Reader, can thy hard heart hold out against that? 37937 ''It is for a very important personage, then?'' 37937 ( Why did n''t we stay in the Salon Carré?) 37937 ( Why should he?) 37937 --Forgive me, yes"--"What is it?"

16224Where was the attendant guard?--or pursuivants-- or men at arms?
16224Where was the harp of the minstrel?
16224Where was the warder?
16224Wherefore was this?
16224Who in France would dare to risk such a sum-- especially for three, volumes in octavo?
16224Why is it endured?
16224Why is it persevered in?
16224Would not the_ Debure_ Vocabulary have said"non rogné?"]
16224[ 47] How long will this monument--(matchless of its kind)--continue unrepresented by the BURIN?
16224[ Has my friend Mr. Hawkins, of the Museum, abandoned all thoughts of his magnificent project connected with such a NATIONAL WORK?]
16224[ dans un lit_ comfortable_?]
16224_ Saint Joseph_, que vous ai- je fait?
16224et par quel changement Abandonner ton ame à la melancholie?"
16224said he!--"How, Sir,"( replied I, in an exstacy of astonishment)--you mean to say fourteen_ louis_?"
16224the baseness of John of Luxembourg, or the treachery of the Regent Bedford?
16224who, by his strength, policy and wit kept them all out of the principal dominions of France, and out of this noble duchy of Normandy?
43844A sort of living frontier?
43844And Basque,said I,"you speak that also?"
43844And do you say it?
43844And how do your witches work?
43844And it runs both ways along the ridge of the hill?
43844And now,said the old gentleman, the poodle''s proprietor and instructor,"what does Madame Tetard do when Monsieur Tetard comes home late?"
43844And so they all sleep here together?
43844And what does he grow there?
43844And what is your request?
43844And why have n''t you?
43844And you speak Spanish, too?
43844Are there any young women witches?
43844Are you mad, duke?
43844As ours in England used to do-- by spell and charm?
43844But do the Pyrenean wolves ever attack men?
43844But if there come rain?
43844But was not the experiment ever tried?
43844But where is the inn?
43844Could anything be more lucky? 43844 Did the power that formed the Adour intend its streams to be made use of to deprive an honest man of his daily bread?
43844He sails to- day-- so; and the maiden''s name-- your niece''s name-- what is that?
43844I can have a room?
43844I suppose you are speaking Bearne?
43844I suppose,I said to the clerk who showed me the works,"you have had many offers for that dog?"
43844Is it not beautiful?
43844Is there not the summer of St. John to come yet?
43844Lady,said she to the Lady of Bearne,"did you ever see your father?"
43844Monsieur,he said,"is an artist, or a poet?"
43844Niniche,said the patriarch,"what does Monsieur Tetard do when he comes home late?"
43844Or was it not,I asked, with hazy reminiscences of Juvenal floating about me,--"was it not a certain sewer-- the Cloaca Maxima, perhaps?"
43844Rather unruly, I should suppose?
43844That is a beautiful scarf,I said to the girl next me;"how much will they give you for making it?"
43844The Landes people have, or had, other queer notions, as well as the witch ones?
43844Tohua- Cohoa,he said;"it has a_ sacré tonnerre_ of a barbarous sound; has it any meaning?"
43844Was water made to weave cloth?
43844Well, and if you are, what then, eh? 43844 Well, now, did they ever do any harm to you?"
43844What do you do with them?
43844What do you think of that?
43844What harvest? 43844 What made him think so?"
43844Who are you?
43844Why so? 43844 Why so?"
43844Will you pay me?--ay or no?
43844You mean the Mediterranean?
43844Your niece,said the baron,"who comes hither from the town of Bordeaux to visit you, and whom I saw but yester even,--has she returned?"
43844_ Mais, monsieur_, where should they come from, but from the sea?
43844''Will you let me try?''
43844Ah, well, what is this poor unhappy world coming to?"
43844And meantime what was Jaques Fort doing in his new ship?
43844And, after all, what could be expected?
43844And, even if they were emblems, was not the point at issue the best gift-- not the best allegorical symbol?
43844As I was getting out, M. Martin stopped me:"Wait,"he said,"and we will drive into the house-- don''t you see how big the door is?"
43844As Quin used to say,"Anybody drink port?
43844As we talked, he inquired whether I were not a foreigner-- an Englishman-- and, with some hesitation, but with great eagerness-- a Protestant?
43844But what claim has it to beauty?
43844But who-- our friends the Russians, and their cousins the Esquimaux excepted-- could possibly be jolly over the idea of oil?
43844Can you see a valley or a ravine just over the olive there?
43844Could I believe my eyes?
43844Could it set without a sub- prefect?
43844Could the planets shine on France unless they were furnished with passports for the firmament?
43844Could the rain on France unless each drop came armed with the_ visé_ of some wonderful bureau or other?
43844Could the sun rise without a prefect?
43844Did you ever see such odd fish?
43844Do you know the meaning of Masdeu?
43844Do you wish sweet liqueur wines from Italy and the Levant?
43844Do you wish to make new Claret old?
43844How comes this?
43844However-- were there many handloom weavers like himself in England?
43844I asked again, then, how the poor people remained in such a hot- bed of pestilence?
43844I was not a native of this part of France?
43844Learn Basque, indeed!--_Mon Dieu, monsieur!_ Do n''t you know that the Devil once tried, and was obliged to give it up for a bad job?
43844No?
43844Not a native of France at all?
43844Now, I would put this question to Olympus:--How could the olive or the horse be emblems before they were created?
43844Now, what must be the common sense of a country which permits, for one instant, the continuance of this wretched little tyrannical humbug?
43844Of course I knew her?
43844Our wine-- bah!--what is it?
43844Perhaps from across the sea?
43844The Baron Armand turned to Klosso:"Does he speak truth?"
43844The Breton, who shot extraordinary well with a cross- bow, says to him,''Would you like to have that porter killed at a shot?''
43844The diligences had stopped running for the season; but what of that?
43844The people of Nismes and Montpellier were afraid of the fever; and even if they were not, why should they come there?
43844Then I came from some place far away?
43844Then recovering himself, he inquired triumphantly whether I meant to say that the process of grinding corn was like the process of weaving cloth?
43844Then the cavalier, trembling with anxiety, exclaimed:"What fountain is this?"
43844Then why did not the farmers use spade- husbandry?
43844Was the house shut up?
43844Well, then, how could the vintage begin until the people, who know nothing about the vintage, command it?
43844Were they not all French?--all the children of a king of France?
43844What could they find to occupy them among these drear pine- woods?
43844What harvest?"
43844What should the tide of progress or of improvement do in these deserts of pine and sand?
43844What thief, who had not made a vow of voluntary starvation, or who had not a morbid taste for living upon resin, would ever have ventured among them?
43844What was one to do?
43844What would France be without_ les autorités_?
43844Where have you seen such a landscape before?
43844Where, indeed, in France will you not?
43844Who built these gloriously fretted Gothic towers, rising high into the air, and sentinelled by so many minor steeples?
43844Who could resist this last attraction?
43844Who was the doughty warrior, thus resting in his mail?
43844Who will give us francs?
43844Who would have the heart to prescribe cold political economy in such a case?
43844cried the baron;"but who is the rascal with her?"
43844did they weave by water- power there, too?
43844said Armand;"you come without being called?"
43844said he of Bordeaux;"you do n''t expect to find French in this chaos?
43844said the baron;"and to whom?"
43844were the folks as bad as some of the people in his country?
43844what is that?"
43844what see I?"
17107!--as if every reader of common sense would not have given_ me_, rather than the_ Abbé Bétencourt_, credit for this bad speaking?
17107Are the old and more curious books deposited here?
17107But see, Sir,( continued he) is not this curious?
17107Could Monsieur refuse this trifling payment?
17107Had he any thing old and curious?
17107Have you no curiosities of any kind--(said I to him) for sale?
17107Is it possible to obtain a copy of this picture?
17107Is it the top of the spire of Strasbourg Cathedral?
17107Is the Son at home?
17107Now that I am in this magical region, my good friend, allow me to inspect the famous PRAYER BOOK of CHARLEMAGNE?
17107Vous le connoissez parfaitement bien, sans doute?
17107Was the date legitimate?
17107What is that?
17107What is the subject to be?
17107What might have been the charge per sheet?
17107What might it have been?
17107What might that be?
17107What might that be?
17107What might this mean?
17107What want you there?
17107Where is the original?
17107Again-- if you convert them to_ other_ purposes of destruction, how can you hope to prevent the same example from being followed in other places?
17107And do not mental affliction and bodily debility generally go together?
17107And now, my good friend, suppose I furnish you with an outline of the worthy head- librarian himself?
17107And to have it engraved there?"
17107And wherefore?
17107And who, think you, should that stranger turn out to be?
17107And why is it thus?
17107And yet it may be doubted whether the latter were absolutely printed by Sweynheym and Pannartz for their_ first_ edition?
17107And yet, when will nations learn that few things tend so strongly to keep alive a pure spirit of PATRIOTISM as_ such_ a study or pursuit?
17107And yet, where have I spoken ungraciously and uncourteously of Madame?]
17107Are you thoroughly awake, and disenchanted from the magic which the contents of the preceding letter may have probably thrown around you?
17107At least he must have a_ missal_ or two?"
17107Barbier?"
17107But I think I hear the wish escape him-- as he casts an attentive eye over the whole--"why do they not imitate us in a publication relating to them?
17107But what do I see yonder?
17107But what then?
17107But"where are my favourite ECCLESIASTICAL EDIFICES?"
17107But, what do you think supplied its place during the late Revolution, or in the year of our Lord 1794, on the 4th day of May?
17107But, you may be disposed to add,"has this celebrated man no collection of Books?--no LIBRARY?
17107Can it be so?
17107Can such an union, therefore, be quite correct?
17107Can there be the smallest shadow of doubt about the truth of the above assertion?
17107Can this be in nature?
17107Certainly the whole book has very much the air of a_ Copy_: and besides, would not the originals have been upon separate rolls of parchment?
17107Could they not be placed in the chapel of St. Lawrence, or of St. Catharine, in the cathedral?
17107Crapelet.?]
17107Did the_ remaining_ volumes ever so exist?
17107Did you ever, my dear friend, approach a fortified town by the doubtful light of a clouded moon, towards eleven of the clock?
17107Do you ask this question?
17107Does any perfect copy, of this kind, exist?
17107Et votre grand capitaine, le DUC DE VELLINGTON, comment se porte il?
17107Every now and then Louis turned round, and said to Bignon,"Bignon, have I got that book in my library?"
17107Geneviève among the spectators.. and turning to his prime minister, exclaimed"Choiseul, how can one distinguish the_ true_ Bible of Sixtus V.?"
17107I have lived fifty- nine years, the happiest of men-- and should I not be ungrateful towards Providence, if I complained of its decrees?!"
17107I put it to the conscience of the most sober- minded observer of men and things-- if any earthly object can be more orthodox and legitimate?
17107If you set fire to them, can you say how far the flames shall extend?
17107In its original binding, with the ornaments tolerably entire:--and what binding should this be, but that of Henry the Second and Diane de Poictiers?
17107Is it because some few hundred thousand_ printed volumes_ are deposited therein?
17107Is there any representation of him, in the same situation, upon his_ return_?
17107It is of the size of life; but surely a statue of_ Minerva_ would have been a little more appropriate?
17107James''s Place_?
17107Langlès?"
17107Le Comte... comment vont les affaires en Angleterre?
17107Most true-- and who has said that HE DOES?
17107Next to Pascal is a prodigiously fine oval portrait( is it of_ Fontaine_?)
17107Or rather, speaking more correctly, why are not the_ Marlborough Gems_ considered as an object of rivalry, by the curators of this exquisite cabinet?
17107Ought not M. Crapelet to have said"il mourrira?"
17107Possibly I might wish to possess them?"
17107Quære tamen?
17107Renouard, in consequence, venture upon the transportation of the_ remaining_ portion of his Library hither?
17107Shall I tell you wherefore?
17107The arms of_ Graville_( Grauille?)
17107The attendant sees your misery, and approaches:"Que desirez vous, Monsieur?"
17107The other day, when dining with some smart, lively, young Parisians, I was compelled to defend RAFFAELLE against David?
17107The present is a sound, clean, and desirable copy: but why in such gay, red morocco, binding?
17107The question therefore, was, after a good deal of pertinacious argument on both sides-- which of the two impressions was the MORE ANCIENT?
17107Was it_ originally_ more_ piquan?_ I have reason not only to suspect, but to know, that it WAS.
17107Was this object necessary to tell the tale?--or, rather, did not the sculptor deem it necessary to_ balance_( as is called) the figure?
17107What is this singular portrait, which strikes one to the left, on entering?
17107What may this mean?
17107What must repeated glimpses have produced?
17107What say you to this, Messrs. Lesné and Crapelet?
17107What then?
17107What therefore is to be done?
17107What think you, among these"choice copies,"of the_ Cancionero Generale_ printed at Toledo in 1527, in the black letter, double columned, in folio?
17107Who could say"nay?"
17107Who is its fortunate Possessor?]
17107Why do they not put forth something similar to what we have done for our_ Museum Marbles_?
17107Why does he not visit us?
17107Will the reader object to disporting himself with some REMBRANDTIANA, in the_ Bibliomania_ p. 680- 2.?
17107Would I do him the favour of a visit?
17107Would you believe it-- here are absolutely TWO copies of this glorious effort of the Aldine Press, printed UPON VELLUM!?
17107Would you believe it-- nearly one half of the illumination, at top, has been sliced away?
17107Would you believe it?
17107Yet why do I find it in my heart to tell you that, towards the middle, many leaves are stained at the top of the right margin?!
17107You enquire"whether Monsieur BARBIER, the chief Librarian, be within?"
17107[ 149]["Would one not suppose that I had told M. Dibdin that it was impossible for the French to execute as fine plates as the English?
17107[ 150] What then remains, in the book way, worthy of especial notice?
17107[ 172]"What,( said its owner,) must you have an engraving of_ that_ head also?
17107[ 75] Suppose, now, I throw in a little variety from the preceding, by the mention of a rare_ Italian_ book or two?
17107[ Can I ever forget, or think slightly of, such kindness?
44776Ah, well, I did n''t think it was so late-- be sure to have the dinner up at seven-- do you hear?
44776Are they out?
44776Bless me!--ah, well!--did you see the present I made him, Daniel?
44776But can you read writing?
44776He ca n''t be married yet?
44776Hif this gentleman is really Mr. Rankin, or hif ee is not, its hol the same-- wot''s the hods? 44776 I am Mr. Rankin, Sir: what do you want?"
44776I am so sorry,she exclaimed;"but look ye, can you read?"
44776I''m the vaterman, sir; you''ll recollect the vaterman?
44776My dear, look at the clock-- what time is it?
44776No you woan''t-- ain''t you old enough to know which side of a carriage to pass?
44776No, you are not Mr. Rankin neither: why do you tell us that nonsense? 44776 Sale?
44776So, you cruel man, you think the poor fellow is in love, do you?
44776Vy, sir, did n''t you ear the gentleman?
44776Well, how is Cadotte? 44776 Well, my good fellow, what do you want of me?"
44776Well, there''s a brute for you; is''nt he-- that Rankin? 44776 Well,"said he,"you know_ that_ portrait too, do you?"
44776What business is it of yours? 44776 What country is that, I should like to know?"
44776Where''s Catlin?
44776Where, sir?
44776Who are you?
44776Why not?
44776Will you take another?
44776You do n''t think he would come out a minute? 44776 You do n''t think he''ll come into the exhibition- room to- night?"
44776--"Not all the afternoon?"
44776--"Well, at two?"
44776--"Well, in the morning, at eight?"
44776--"Well, ten."--"To- morrow?"
44776--"Well, then, say ten?"
44776--"What time do you breakfast?"
44776All inquired for me:"Where''s Mr. Catlin?
44776Are you not well?
44776But why did the policeman and the conductor say we were both right or"all right?"
44776But you are jesting, Daniel?"
44776But, look ye, Daniel; that''s been a sad affair with poor Cadotte, has it not?
44776Ca n''t Mr. Catlin do something for him?
44776Cado-- with two t''s, or one?"
44776Cadotte has not gone?"
44776Can not we yet prevent such a spot upon our city''s bright escutcheon?
44776Can they boast of Catlin''s_ powers_ as a national glory?
44776Catlin, my dear fellow, come, join us in a glass of good old sherry-- it will give you an appetite for your dinner-- Is it to your liking?"
44776Catlin?''
44776Did you examine his hand?
44776Do n''t you think he has been married to some of those little squaws?
44776Do you know Murray, my good fellows?
44776He comes here occasionally?"
44776He will be in the exhibition, I suppose, to- night?"
44776He''ll recollect me, wo n''t he?
44776How do you say?
44776I came ere, like the rest of you, an ard- working man, to spend my shilling, hand for wot?
44776I have a nice present for him, d''ye see?--is''nt that a fine brooch?
44776I paid the poor fellow a sixpence for his ingenuity; and as he left, a third one stepped up, of whom I inquired,"What do_ you_ want?"
44776I shall be here every night, I assure you; and you will always let me in early?
44776I suppose you saw him?"
44776I_ must_ go-- you_ do n''t think_ he would come out?"
44776Il y avait là une magnifique collection, un musée rare, que dis- je?
44776Is it_ yet_ too late to avert such a result?
44776Is n''t that a fine spirit?
44776Not gone, ha?
44776Oh, dear, what shall we do?
44776Où vont- ils?
44776Qu''est- ce donc qui distingue l''art grec entre tous les arts?
44776Rankin?"
44776She seemed delighted at this, and, turning to Daniel, said,"Oh, did you hear the poor fellows rejoicing?
44776She''s pretty enough; but what''s that to such a man as Cadotte?
44776That Interpreter!--what''s his name?
44776That''s what he should do, should n''t he?
44776They are here, I suppose, before this?"
44776To be oaxed, gentlemen?
44776To be umbugged, gentlemen?
44776Well, oh, but what a wonderful collection this is-- Ha?
44776Well, they have all gone, I suppose?"
44776What do you think is the matter with him?"
44776What is he to do here?
44776When meeting a friend, it is the first salutation, meaning"How goes it?"
44776Where are you from, I should like to know?"
44776Where''s Catlin?"
44776Where''s Murray?
44776Where''s sister Ellen, and Betty?"
44776Will he stay in London?
44776Will or can any one with a spark of curiosity, not to name enthusiasm, in his composition, begrudge a shilling for the sight?
44776Wo n''t it be delightful to see her and Mr. Catlin come together?
44776You say he is in the dressing- room?"
44776_ Kút- tee- o- túb- bee_, How did he kill?
44776and the bus goes hon, d''ye see, sir?"
44776n''est- ce pas la simplicité et le naturel?
44776now, but you_ do n''t think_ so, do you, really?"
44776or"How do you do?"
44776où s''arrêteront- ils?
44776said Cadotte,"do you know what_ medicine_ is?"
44776said Cadotte,"why, do you suppose that women can eat at a_ medicine feast_?"
44776said I, as we were moving off, and he held the door open with one hand and his hat raised with the other;"what do you want?"
44776said he,"who the devil ever heard of such a thing as turning to the right?
44776said the landlady,"are they not as good as the men?
44776some more of them damned grisly bears, have you?"
44776to which he grumly replied as he snapped his whip,"I should like to know what business you have in there?"
44776yes; why, do you think they are wild beasts?
44776you do n''t mean to say that he is dead?"
44776you do n''t say so?
44776you do n''t think I''m a grizly bear, do you?"
35125''Ah,_ mon Dieu!_ at Strasbourg?'' 35125 ''And paper, pens, ink?''
35125''And what did you do with it?'' 35125 ''And where are you two going?''
35125''And where is Auteuil?'' 35125 ''But do they not eat, too?...
35125''But reflect, first,''said the king,''if there be a crowd, are you sure of your building?'' 35125 ''But you, my poor child?''
35125''By whom, then?'' 35125 ''Can it be that those cries are addressed to us?''
35125''Doubtless; for, after all, what is my principality of Béarn? 35125 ''Have we, do you think, run over any one?''
35125''Have you brought it?'' 35125 ''Have you no prisoners, then, at less than ten francs?''
35125''Have you shown this letter to any one?'' 35125 ''How should I know it?
35125''I?'' 35125 ''Insane?''
35125''Is the deed of sale ready?'' 35125 ''It is a conspiracy, then?''
35125''It is an excellent lodging,''said Gaston, smiling,''though ill furnished; can I have some books, some paper, and pens?'' 35125 ''Manuscripts as well, sir?''
35125''Scratches himself?'' 35125 ''Sire, it is, then, the King of Navarre?''
35125''So near as that?'' 35125 ''Tell me now, Father Billot,''inquired Pitou, after having carried the timber some thirty yards,''are we going far in this way?''
35125''Tell me where you are conducting me?'' 35125 ''The Château d''If?''
35125''True, your Grace, but--''''In the first place, at what time do we dine?''
35125''Very well; and where is this house that I purchase?'' 35125 ''Well, am I so poor as to have no Tokay in my cellar?
35125''Well, do you think Count Haga will drink sixty bottles with his dinner?'' 35125 ''What do you want?''
35125''What in heaven''s name does it all mean?'' 35125 ''What is it?''
35125''What the devil are you doing here, Vatel?'' 35125 ''Where are we to go?''
35125''Where are we?'' 35125 ''Who may they be?
35125''Why do you ask that question?'' 35125 ''With a post- chaise and_ valet de chambre_?''"
35125''Yes, your Grace, like the king--''''And why like the king?''
35125''Yes,''said Dantès;''do you then know him?'' 35125 ''You are a native of Marseilles, and a sailor, and yet you do not know where you are going?''
35125''You are the notary empowered to sell the country- house that I wish to purchase, monsieur?'' 35125 ''You have the list of my guests?''
35125''You think, then,''said he,''that I am conducted to the château to be imprisoned there?'' 35125 ''You would much like to hold Cahors, Sire?''
35125''Your Grace, the citizens dine at two, the bar at three, the nobility at four--''''And I, sir?''
35125''Your master? 35125 And what then?"
35125But Latude, poor devil, what had he done? 35125 Have you read it?"
35125Have you read it?
35125Henri thought he recognized the voice, and, advancing toward the individual, said,''Ah, is it you, Beaulieu? 35125 Indeed,"said Delacroix, who kept on painting.--"You are angry with me, are you not?
35125La Hurière advanced, and looked at Henri; and, as his large cloak did not inspire him with very great veneration:''Who are you?''
35125What made you go away?
35125What then? 35125 What was the good?
35125Why did I not come earlier to Paris?
35125''Are you buying wine at a_ cabaret_ in the Place de Grève?''...
35125''That book you are reading, does it not give recipes for cooking eggs in sixty different ways?''
35125''To whom is it addressed?''
35125''What are we going there for?''
35125''What does your Majesty mean?''
35125''Where must I stop, ladies?''
35125''Why so?''
35125''You see I am generous; am I not, mother?''
351251?''
35125And what the devil do you do here?''
35125And where are they?''
35125And who was your master at that time?''
35125Are there any magistrates or judges at the Château d''If?''
35125Bertuccio?''
35125But did not the history of Paris itself furnish the romancer with these very essential details?
35125But what about England''s peculiar dishes?
35125But what about the actual condition of the people at the time?
35125Did you forget that this great man, this hero, this demigod, is attacked with a malady of the skin which worries him to death,_ prurigo_?''
35125Do not the prisoners leave some scraps?''
35125Dumas recounts the incident thus:"''And the cards I ordered to be engraved as soon as you knew the number of the house?''
35125Have you any good wine of Artois?''
35125He raised his head and asked,''Where are we?''
35125He says,"I address him....''Pardon my impertinence, but are you very fond of eggs?''
35125I suppose M. le Comte has the tastes of the day?''"
35125It is an interesting subject, to be sure, but a trifling one for one of the world''s greatest writers to spend his time upon; say you, dear reader?
35125It runs thus:"''Who is this man?''
35125It were not possible to produce a complete or"exhaustive"work on any subject of a historical, topographical or æsthetic nature: so why claim it?
35125Marrow- bones and stewed eels, for instance?
35125Noirtier?''
35125Now, you must agree these are indubitable symptoms of weakness?''
35125One is in the cellar of his Majesty Louis XVI.--''"''And the other?''
35125Sixty?''...
35125The Parisian has, perhaps, cause to regret that these turf- covered battlements somewhat restrict his"_ promenades environnantes_,"but what would you?
35125The corvette must now, I think, be on her way to Fécamp, must she not?''"
35125Then she cried in a loud voice,''Do you know who I am?
35125To take Cahors, which is held by M. de Vezin, one must be a Hannibal or a Cæsar; and your Majesty--''"''Well?''
35125Were these men who blocked up the Rue Vivienne friends or enemies?
35125Whom, if you please, have we to- day whose name and fame is as wide as those just mentioned?
35125Why have people accused me of prodigality?
35125Why should this be the case, unless it be to enjoy the pleasures of my kitchen?
35125Why then these green cockades?
35125You will never forgive me?"
35125_ En route_ to the_ cabaret_, D''Artagnan asked of his companion,"Is there a procession to- day?"
35125_ Quelle couleur voulez- vous?_"With almost a common accord the tricolour was adopted-- and the next day the Bastille fell.
35125_"Votre Majesté,"dit le maire,"veut- elle accepte le signe distinctif des Français?
35125a hanging on the Grève?
35125do you not see I reserve eighty francs for myself?
35125le Comte does not know it?''
35125said Henri,''is this the way to my apartment?''
35125said he,''does not M. le Comte know where the house he purchases is situated?''
35125you imagine that I can be beaten by wool- merchants and beer- drinkers?''
42231A pin?
42231And what is it, pray?
42231Are you Coligny?
42231But how can we reward devotion like yours?
42231Can you cure me?
42231Demolish the tower of Saint- Jacques- de- la- Boucherie?
42231Did you never before hear of a man fighting two antagonists?
42231Didier de quoi?
42231Eh, bien, monsieur,he said,"êtes- vous arrivé pour voir ce spectacle?"
42231How?
42231I am,he replied with calmness;"but will you not respect my age?"
42231Is it a revolt, then?
42231It will take you a long time to pay it off at that rate,said Laffitte,"and who knows whether you will ever bring me the first instalment?"
42231Ought a man who can paint like that to be in want of a glass of sherry?
42231Shall I never have any peace?
42231Vous êtes bourreau?
42231We are to take away M. de Lavalette, are we?
42231What are you?
42231What do you say?
42231What have I done to be thus beloved?
42231What have you there?
42231What is it? 42231 What is it?"
42231What poor devil has lost these?
42231What was that?
42231What would become of society?
42231When?
42231Who is that young man contradicting me so loudly?
42231Why does n''t he appeal to arms?
42231Why should he not? 42231 Why,"exclaimed the public accuser,"after a virtuous life of seventy- two years, must you now be declared guilty?
42231Why?
42231Would you,he said,"be kind enough to place this at the bottom of my portmanteau?"
42231''Does monsieur wish to eat?''
42231''Does monsieur wish to read?''
42231''To bind me?''
42231''What are you attempting?''
42231''What do you want?''
42231''What have I done to my cousin,''he exclaimed,''that he should so persecute me?
42231After supper his inquiry was:"Maître Nicholas, what shall we have for to- morrow''s dinner?"
42231All those who have any share in the administration keep carriages, and what care they for the pedestrian traveller?
42231Among the questions put to candidates for election to the Jacobin Club were the following:"What were you in 1789?
42231And when?
42231At the end of dinner he was accustomed to send for Maître Nicholas, his cook, and say:"Maître Nicholas, what shall we have for supper?"
42231At the military post where he was taken upon his arrest, a National Guard having asked him who he was,"What''s that to you?"
42231But what ought I to do in the matter?"
42231Demolish the architect who suggests such a thing?
42231Demolish the architect?
42231Does he want us to perish of thirst now that he is dead?"
42231Had Paris been destroyed and something like it raised up with a new population?
42231He exclaimed with his last gasp,''Pas de Crême?''"
42231His wandering eye seems to interrogate every passenger, saying with heartrending accents of despondency:''Where shall I find my wife?
42231How can she replace this torn dress?
42231How indeed, without such a reflection, could he from day to day exist?
42231If they notice abuses why should they not point them out, when so many persons, reputed sage, are unwilling to do so?"
42231Is he not dead?"
42231Is it not the same fire and courage which you demand when you summon such youths to defend the country?
42231Is this a service or injury to the language?
42231King Louis IX., my brother, grants me 30,000 Paris livres, and the question is, shall I found a convent or a hospital?"
42231Ours are more sober, no doubt, but is this sobriety the companion of health?
42231She has no costume?
42231Should he not be clad in garments more suitable to the minister of death?
42231Soldiers of the 4th regiment of artillery, may the Emperor''s nephew reckon on you?"
42231The two establishments were only separated by a street very much too narrow; if the theatre caught fire, was it not sure to burn the Library?
42231They have fire, you say, in their nature; they love liberty: and at what age would you wish men to love liberty and defend it with courage?
42231They talk of a reformation, but when is it to take place?
42231Was I in Germany or in Russia?
42231Was it as patriot, people asked, or as minister of a would- be despotic king, that M. Thiers proposed to raise around Paris a new and formidable wall?
42231We see him still, coffee- pot in hand, saying in a voice profound,''Pas de Crême?''
42231What are your arms?"
42231What becomes of him after that?
42231What can be more admirable than Delacroix''s"Nymph,"at whose feet crouches a panther?
42231What colours do you prefer-- green, the colour of hope, or the blue of Cincinnatus, the colour of American liberty and of democracy?"
42231What crime have they committed?"
42231What had such inquiries to do with springs and volcanoes?
42231What has this brilliant college produced?
42231What have you done since?
42231What is the consequence of so gross an absurdity?
42231What is the consequence of this unnatural restraint?
42231What object could he have?
42231What was your fortune until 1789, and what is it now?"
42231What, it may be asked, had a quiet, peaceful, and eminently respectable monarch like Louis Philippe done to provoke repeated attempts upon his life?
42231What,"Barère went on to say,"has ever come out of the Military School?
42231When Richard III., in Shakespeare''s play, says to one of his pages,"Know''st thou a murderer?"
42231Whence the name?
42231Where are my children?''
42231Where is the turtle?"
42231Whilst Cléry, bathed in tears, ran for it, the King said,''Are there amongst you any members of the Commune?
42231Who can hear of the death of all he held dear and precious, and not wish to die?
42231Who ever heard of the"Earl of Chatham"being converted into the"Sir Robert Peel,"or of"Lord Nelson"turning into"Sir Charles Napier"?
42231Who has not read of Les Trois Frères Provençaux in Balzac''s"Scenes from Paris Life"?
42231Who is it that can survive his friends, his relations, nay, a whole generation?
42231Who will venture within a house where the bed of mercy is far more dreadful than the naked board on which lies the poorest wretch?
42231Who would not fly from the bloody, detested spot?
42231Who, meanwhile, was to live at the Tuileries?
42231Why describe the ancient monument, when it is so much simpler to represent through drawings and engravings its most characteristic features?
42231Why is one of them too rich, and the others too independent to write at so much per sheet?"
42231Why should he who puts the last hand to the work be reputed infamous for duties which are simply the complement of those of the magistrate?"
42231Will you, in your turn, reassure those who are attached to me in your neighbourhood?
42231Without them what should I now be?
42231You think, perhaps, that the dancer or the singer paid for the representatives of the people?
42231for what frightful calamity was I reserved?
42231had he not some personal vengeance to exercise against me?''
42231will you, then, to oblige the_ canaille_, compel me to hear out a whole play, when I am rich enough to see only the last scene?
37344And that?
37344Are you well seated? 37344 Do you love me, my dear son?"
37344Elle est sourde?
37344For whom is that seat?
37344Have you_ Pluralities Indefensible_, by Dr. Newton, founder of Hertford College?
37344How would you have us be gay?
37344I am giving you an useless trouble; but can any thing be done to relieve him?
37344Into what part of their country?
37344Mais que voulez- vous? 37344 May I ask, have you consulted your family and friends?"
37344Mend_ you_?
37344Pourquoi me fuient- ils?
37344Quel est_ votre_ prix, Monsieur? 37344 Shall we set_ him_ down in the list?"
37344Tu n''es pas royaliste? 37344 Veux- tu mourir en capucin?
37344Vous l''avez vu, l''Empereur?
37344What do you call the dark ages?
37344What would the world think of such a step? 37344 What?"
37344Why did you not come sooner?
37344Why do you call him English?
37344Why does he not go away? 37344 Why not four?"
37344Will not the papists murder me?
37344[ 33] Ask where''s the north? 37344 [ 40]--"Qu''importe?
37344--"And my brother?
37344--"Are you aware of all the_ civil_ consequences?
37344--"But the title passes current?"
37344--"But you do not allow the orders of the Anglican church?"
37344--"But your expectations?"
37344--"Do you forgive me the faults I may have committed in regard to you?"
37344--"How do they put out candles in this country?"
37344--"How do_ you_ administer it?"
37344--"Me alone?
37344--"Moi seul?
37344--"Où donc?"
37344--"Perhaps you will lose some ecclesiastical benefice?"
37344--"What is there to laugh at in that?"
37344--"What use do they make of it?"
37344--"Why did not you propose this business to me this morning when I paid my rent?"
37344--"Why not two?"
37344--"Will you give me leave to send you a treatise on this subject, entitled_ La perpétuité de la foi de l''église touchant l''eucharistie_?"
37344--"You think so?

37344A lad of twelve years old, who had heard the question, volunteered as interpreter:"Quanti anni ai?"
37344A third cried out,"D-- n your jacobin eyes, what do you mean by that?"

37344After a little consideration,"Would you wish your priest to be an old man or a young one?"
37344Ai- je mérité cela?
37344An Anglican clergyman put the question,"What is the mass?"
37344And how do they maintain it?
37344And why should he not be equally capable of learning Latin in the same space of time?
37344Another, a little perplexed on the subject of unity, asked,"What is the catholic church?"
37344At his first visits, early in the morning, he used to ask the servants,"Où en sommes nous?
37344Breugne?"
37344But, on such important occasions, how can discretionary powers be entrusted to custom- house officers?
37344By these wounds Kenelm was urged to exclaim,"O why do I suffer so much?"
37344Do you think it would be easy at this day to make the people of England believe in the real presence?"
37344Does any spiritual grace follow the blessing of the bishop?
37344Even if it were fine and rare, it would be there misplaced:"fortasse cupressum scis simulare,"but what has that to do with a shipwreck?
37344FOOTNOTES:[ 87]"Have you seen the Emperor?"--"Yes."--"Where?"

37344Gentlemen travellers drinking claret?
37344Had this body the privilege of infallibility while deciding on the canon, and were they immediately deprived of it?
37344He heard the bell of the church of St. Agricol, and cried,"Why do they ring that bell?
37344He said,"Yes, I will, if you will not cry: why do you cry?"
37344He suspects his brother''s death: he asked me yesterday,''Why does he not write?
37344How big is it?"
37344How far did his intelligence enable him to presage the fate that awaited him?
37344How then are the dead to be disposed of?
37344I addressed him in a hurried manner:--"Is my son to take the bark, since he is vomiting?"
37344I said to M. Breugne,"What am I to do?
37344I said,"Madame, you bring us good news from your campagne?"
37344I saw no light, and asked,"Where?"
37344In his weak state, how enter on such a topic?
37344In war, in politics, in civil contracts, in common life, men universally thus express themselves; and why not in religion?
37344It is easy to say, and it has often been said, that the gallery is too long,--too long, that is, for its breadth: but who would wish it to be shorter?
37344Kenelm''s mother approached the bed:"Will you pray for me------"she had not force to add, as she wished,"when you are in heaven?"
37344M. Breugne said,"Puisqu''il vomit?
37344My friend asked,"Why do you not speak to the administrators?"
37344Notwithstanding what she had heard and what she saw before her, the mother was alarmed, and cried out,"You think he will not live till morning?"
37344Other indications he gave, that he thought his end to be near: he said to me, with a pensive and composed look,--"Monument?
37344St. John Chrysostom, who lived in the fourth age, preached on this subject like a catholic doctor of the present day."--"Really?
37344The congratulator explained,"Why, does n''t see, that, for us to have good news of peace again, we must first have war again?
37344The next morning, Antoine asked Roche on his first visit,"Is M. Kenelm worse, Sir?
37344The priest, addressing him, said,"You see this is the crucifix?"
37344There are then sins that are forgiven in the world to come: but when?
37344There occurred besides another English prejudice: I was to have but a part of the house: who might they be who should inhabit the other part?
37344They returned consoled, but still dejected: the expression of their faces said plainly,--"It is not he; but then, where is he?"
37344Thou hast not conspired against the state?
37344Tu n''as pas conspiré contre l''état?
37344What can it mean?

37344Within a minute, my wife, who had raised herself in her bed, asked me,"What light is that?"
37344Yet it is written that, when the disciples asked our Lord,"Did this man sin or his parents, that he was born blind?"
37344You know, I presume, that you must begin by that?"
37344You were at confession and communion five days ago: has any thing occurred since, on which you would consult your director?"

37344a question to my mind more difficult to answer than"how are the dead raised up?"
37344and soon after,"How far is it to the bridge of the Durance?"
37344as an answer, I asked,"What is the church of England?"
37344do you feel any cold?"
37344have I deserved that?"

37344said I;"an English catholic?"
37344said the chairman to Mr. Pope, in reply to his accustomed exclamation,--"God mend me,""Mend_ you_?

37344what, have you got a park?"
22956A dollar for every hour?
22956And Jennie?
22956And Jennie?
22956And did all the pictures have an old chestnut tree in them?
22956And did you go?
22956And did you invite Carlos to go with you?
22956And did you?
22956And how much do they generally please?
22956And how much would it cost me at a boarding house, in Paris, to pay my board?
22956And may I go, too?
22956And tea?
22956And then, dinner?
22956And what did he say?
22956And what did you do next?
22956And where did you go next?
22956And where is father?
22956Are you going to the Garden of Plants?
22956Are you going with mother?
22956Are you his father, sir?
22956Are you sure that they will come?
22956Are you there, Rollo?
22956Blind?
22956But suppose I lose it?
22956But what are the people doing in that ring?
22956But which way are we to go?
22956Ca n''t you find any one to play with you?
22956Can it be possible?
22956Children,said Mr. Holiday,"do you come here to listen, or to talk?"
22956Could not you ask some of them,said Rollo,"what we are to do next?"
22956Did a building tumble down?
22956Did it look like one of our schools?
22956Did n''t you like it?
22956Did she find her own hotel?
22956Did they rock?
22956Did you go in?
22956Do n''t we have any thing, then, after dinner?
22956Do you feel any anxiety about our trunks coming?
22956Do you speak English, sir?
22956Do you speak English?
22956Do you speak English?
22956Five francs is about a dollar, is it not?
22956Have you any change,said Mr. George,"to pay your ferriage back?"
22956Have you got a purse?
22956How big was it?
22956How did she learn French, do you suppose?
22956How do you feel, father?
22956How long?
22956How much is the fare?
22956I shall say,''How much?'' 22956 I wonder what they do in there?"
22956In French?
22956Is it possible?
22956Is that the emperor?
22956May I go, too?
22956May I?
22956Nothing at all?
22956Sir?
22956Then how can we get in?
22956Was any body preaching to them?
22956Was it a pretty place?
22956We put it upon a cart at the custom- house, and why does not it come?
22956Well, children,said Mrs. Holiday,"have you had a pleasant walk?"
22956Well,said Mr. George, after hearing his story,"and what do you propose that we should do?"
22956Were the pictures very pretty?
22956Were the students there?
22956Were they all crying?
22956What are the Boulevards?
22956What are they doing there?
22956What are we waiting for?
22956What are you going to do about it, then?

22956What is it?
22956What is that?
22956What is the reason that our baggage does not come?
22956What is your reason, then?
22956What made you go away from this hotel, uncle George?
22956What mistake?
22956What places did you go to?
22956What was it?
22956What was the subject?
22956What''s that? 22956 What''s that?
22956What''s that?
22956What''s the common custom?
22956What''s the ferriage?

22956Why did not you bring me home some of them?
22956Why does not it come?
22956Why not?
22956Why not?
22956Why?
22956Would you go out there and see what it is?
22956Would you, Carlos?
22956Would you?
22956Yes,said Estelle;"but, Charley, do n''t you think it would have been better for us to have brought our trunks with us on the omnibus?"
22956Yes,said Jennie;"do n''t you see the little dog leading her?"
22956After a moment''s pause, the boatman said again,--"Would you like to go, sir?
22956And have you been staying here to take care of me?"
22956Are there any more?"
22956Are you willing that I should invite him to go with us to the Garden of Plants?"
22956As soon as he opened the door, Jennie pushed aside the curtains, and said,--"Ah, Rollo, is that you?
22956Besides, if there were a roof over it, how could the balloons go up?
22956Do you suppose, Jennie, that it can be possible that there is any way to get up to the top of the column by going in at that door?"
22956He got up from his seat and opened the door, gently, saying,--"Father, are you awake?"
22956How much would you like?"
22956If not, how could those men get up?"
22956Is it French?"
22956Is not it so?"
22956Is there a room for me at your hotel?"
22956Jennie?"
22956Rollo wished very much to find out his new companion''s name; so he asked him, in English,--"What is your name?"
22956The only question is, Which way will be the pleasantest and the most comfortable?"
22956Then do n''t you think you could find your way home?"
22956Uncle George, what''s that?"
22956What are you going to do all that time?"
22956What language is it that he talks?
22956What shall we do?
22956Which way will you go?"
22956Why_ ca n''t_ you ask somebody, Charles?"
22956Will there be room for me?"
22956Would not you like to read with me?"
49318And of what?
49318And you came here?
49318And you have never heard anyone speak of your family, of your father, or mother?
49318And you have never seen your family since?
49318Are we going to be left all alone?
49318At least, then, you have been happy?
49318At what hour must I get up?
49318But of what?
49318She is dead?
49318What wind?
49318Why was I not there with my Franks?
49318You have never written to anyone?
49318A mind?
49318Again, wherefore?
49318And the suns, whence do they come from?
49318And then?
49318And what do they earn, these starvelings?
49318Another adds:"How can you expect people to care for you, if you run away in this fashion from your friends?
49318Art?
49318Because it gives me pleasure to see and talk with some one, does it follow that I should be permitted to know what he does, and what he likes?
49318Bread?
49318But suddenly an official stopped him:"Are you not banished, sir?"
49318But where do those microbes come from?
49318By what sombre spirit Is thy face or profile, Swung as from a thread Through the shadows of the sky?
49318Can anything be more dreary than_ table d''hôte_ conversation?
49318Clovis, the Christian king, cried on hearing the story of the Passion:"Why was I not there with my Franks?"
49318Could justice be more gentle?
49318Did Napoleon the First continue the great intellectual movement begun by the philosophers at the end of the last century?
49318Do mothers even possess their children?
49318Do we ever think of the aged famished creatures in the garrets?
49318Do we love it because it is dead?
49318Do you know what she thinks, whether even she really adores you?
49318Does a woman ever really belong to you?
49318Does not that phrase remain to this day as good as a victory?
49318Each one inquires, although written by different hands:"Where are you?
49318For where can they go without money?
49318From whence, therefore, arises this anguish at living, since to the generality of men it only brings satisfaction?
49318Has it not made this prince more illustrious, than the conquest of a kingdom?
49318He asked again:"You have never told this to anyone?"
49318He inquired anxiously:"All?"
49318He who worthily fulfils all the kingly functions without the title, or he who bears the title without knowing how to reign?"
49318How can he have grown old without any event having occurred, without having been shaken by any of the surprises of existence?
49318How can he have reached this point?
49318How could a man fail to be victorious, who knew how to speak thus to his captains and his troops?
49318How many panting pauses on the steps, in the little stairway so black and winding?
49318I called out to them:"What on earth are you doing?"
49318I inquired:"What o''clock is it?"
49318I went towards her:"Will you drink?"
49318I went towards him, and he said:--"Will you help me to nurse a case of diphtheria?
49318Is a proof needful?
49318Is it not a fact, however, that the witticism caused a ready acceptance of the deed?
49318Is it true that such things happen?
49318Is she great by what she conquered, or by what she produced?
49318Nevertheless-- Who can tell?
49318Now why does not the mob reason, since each particular individual in the crowd does reason?
49318Of what use is all this?
49318Of what use is it to me to learn what I am, to read what I think, to see myself portrayed in the trivial adventures of a novel?
49318Our diseases are due to microbes?
49318She stammered out:"Is it done?"
49318Should we not have spurned any other than Victor Hugo, who should have launched forth the grand cry of deliverance and truth?
49318The doctor inquired:"Have you got a candle?"
49318They are striking resemblances?"
49318Those who fight to eat the vanquished, or those who fight to kill, only to kill?
49318Was I dreaming?
49318Was it the invasion of the Persians that prevented her from falling into the most hideous materialism?
49318Was it the invasion of the barbarians that saved Rome and regenerated her?
49318What are you doing?
49318What can be more curious, and more surprising, than the events which have been accomplished in the last century?
49318What could surprise them?
49318What did it matter?
49318What difference is there then between monarchies and republics?
49318What do we know of Louis VI.?
49318What had they done?
49318What have they ever done to show their intelligence, these valiant warriors?
49318What have they invented?
49318What have they to expect?
49318What horrible nightmare was this?
49318What ideas?
49318What is it?
49318What matter?
49318What remains of Greece?
49318What was it?
49318What was it?
49318What was it?
49318What was to be done?
49318What will come out of the sea?
49318What will to- morrow bring forth?
49318What would you have me do?
49318When would she get there?
49318Where was I?
49318Where was she going?
49318Wherefore such a vain imitation?
49318Wherefore such efforts?
49318Wherefore this trivial reproduction of things in themselves so dull?
49318Wherefore this unknown torture, which preys upon me?
49318Which are the savages, the true savages?
49318Why disappear in this way, without telling us where you are going?
49318Why do all the French laugh, while all the English and all the Germans can understand nothing of the fun?
49318Why have they killed her boy, her beautiful boy, her sole hope, her pride, her life?
49318Why indeed?
49318Why should I not know the reality of pleasure, expectation, and possession?
49318Why should I undergo these worries, these sufferings, these struggles?
49318Why should a crowd do spontaneously, what none of the units of the crowd would have done?
49318Why should not governments be judged after the declaration of every war?
49318Why?
49318With one_ bon mot,_ might he not perhaps have escaped the guillotine?
49318With whom are you hiding?"
49318Yes, indeed, why?
49318[ Illustration 028] And is it not he, the mocking poet, who immediately presents it to us through his eyes?
49318about what?
49318and the diseases of these invisible ones?
49318and what would become of me in that case?
49318l''Ambassadeur?"
49318that one dies like this?
49318what is it?
49318where from?"
8998Does that bird come from China, my dear?
8998In what part of the_ château_ were you, Jean,said I,"when these balls were aimed at the windows?"
8998Is he gone to rest? 8998 What''s your business, citizen?"
8998When will men in power know how to disdain equally the interested encomiums of intriguing flatterers and the satires produced by hunger? 8998 Whence proceeds the decree of proscription?
8998Who can not but be fond of having recourse to a flame so subservient? 8998 Why can not the French government partly adopt this indifference?
8998''What''s the matter, sir?''
8998--"And does not the king,"continued Henry,"intend to lighten these taxes?"
8998--"And how am I to give it to him?"
8998--"And how did you contrive to escape,"said I?
8998--"The_ poissardes_,"added I,"set no bounds to their cruelty?"
8998--"What is God?"
8998--"What is duration?"
8998--"What is eternity?"
8998--"What is friendship?"
8998--"What is gratitude?"
8998--"What is happiness?"
8998--"What the devil does this mean?"
8998----''What has he done?''
8998----''_Moi, Monsieur_?''
8998And must a painful remembrance come to interrupt a recital which ought to recall cheerful ideas only?
8998And whence came most of these generals who have shewn this inspiration, if I may so term it?
8998And, indeed, how could they answer the most trifling question?
8998Are you an epicure?
8998Boileau has said,"_ Aimez- vous la muscade?
8998But the parties interested should abstain from pronouncing; for where then would be the proportion between the punishment and the crime?
8998But to what degree are these unfortunates deaf, and why are they dumb?
8998But what can compensate for the absence of the tide?
8998But what could the feeble remonstrances of the old against the warm applause of the young?
8998But what have these_ would- be_ republicans to allege as an excuse in their favour?
8998But what more horrid than the reverse, that is, two beings cursing the fatal hour which brought them together in wedlock?
8998But why meddle with the cold remains of any great genius?
8998Endeavours are made by the government to repair the mischief by forming pupils; but how are they to be formed without good masters or good models?
8998Have they been to blame in refusing?
8998He is asked,"What is Time?"
8998He went up and said to him with eagerness:"Where''s the king?"
8998How can he, in fact, contemplate these different flags, without regretting the torrents of blood which they have cost his fellow- creatures?
8998How happens it that, in all countries on the continent, ladies flock to these odious spectacles?
8998How then could it be dispensed with?
8998In fact, what can well be more tiresome than a place where you find persons masked, without wit or humour?
8998In general, they are coquetish; but, without coquetry, would they be deemed qualified for their employment?
8998Instead of copying the French in objects of fickleness and frivolity, why not borrow from them what is really deserving of imitation?
8998Is it not astonishing that the government should suffer, still more promote the existence of an evil so pernicious in every point of view?
8998Is it to gratify an excess of national vanity, or create a superior degree of admiration in the mind of foreigners?
8998Is then a mixture of horror and ridicule one of the characteristics of the revolution?
8998No delicacy of the table but may be eaten in Paris.--Are you a toper?
8998No delicious wine but may be drunk, in Paris.--Are you fond of frequenting places of public entertainment?
8998No description of female beauty but may be obtained in Paris.--Are you partial to the society of men of extraordinary talents?
8998No great genius but comes to display his knowledge in Paris.--Are you inclined to discuss military topics?
8998No kind of instruction but may be acquired in Paris.--Are you an admirer of the fair sex?
8998No sort of spectacle but may be seen in Paris.--Are you desirous of improving your mind?
8998On my asking M. HAÜY, whether he would not retire, as it was intended he should, on his pension?
8998On the first experiments being made of it, some one asked him:"Of what use are balloons?"
8998Qui veut boire?_"here take their stand as they used, though not in such numbers.
8998This is commonly nothing more than the fruit of anonymous and envenomed revenge: for what are the secret intrigues of courts to any man of letters?
8998We scarcely dare say,_ we have read it_:''tis the scum of low literature, and what is there without its scum?
8998What are their crimes?
8998What are we doing in England?]
8998What can well surpass an example of this kind mentioned by a celebrated French writer?
8998What else but thou Giv''st safety, strength, and glory to a people?"
8998What establishment then can be more convenient than that of a_ restaurateur_?
8998What greater proof can be adduced of the vitiated taste of the male part of the audience?
8998What is their number?
8998What other city in Europe can boast of such an assemblage of accommodation?
8998What should it be but a subpoena for a divorce?
8998What strange fatality impels men to persevere in such unprofitable erections?
8998What then can be said of a work in which they are all united?
8998What then would be the admiration of such an_ amateur_, could he now behold the perfection attained here by some of the beauties of the present day?
8998What was to be done?
8998What will not gallantry suggest to a man of fashionable education?
8998What, in fact, can be more liberal than this gratuitous diffusion of knowledge?
8998Who are its occupiers?
8998Who can accurately determine the best means for bringing the good to overbalance the evil?
8998Who can fairly estimate the extent of the mischief which they produce, or of that which they obviate?
8998Who has not heard the lay which records the defeat of Tourville?
8998Who therefore need travel farther than Paris to enjoy every gratification?
8998Why does not the British government follow an example so justly deserving of imitation?
8998Why else should apples of irresistible ripeness and beauty have presented themselves to the eye of our first parents in the garden of Eden?
8998Why then are not theatrical representations here so regulated, that the stage may conduce to the amelioration of morals?
8998Will it remove his prejudices and errors?
8998Will the contemplation of them render him more wise, more temperate, more liberal in his ideas?
8998You will stare when I tell you to fill up the blank with the name of her who is now become the first female personage in France?
8998exclaimed I again,"what, is a counterrevolution at hand, that the_ Fête des Rois_ must also be celebrated?"
8998rejoined he;"who then shall I get to love me?"
8998said ROBESPIERRE to him,"do you dare to drink these poisoned brandies?"
8998says another to him--"It is a day without yesterday, or to- morrow,"replies the pupil.--"What is a sense?"
8998you have made very fine and majestic laws; but would you have divined these?
20124''And by what enchantment,''rejoined Dame Garsende,''does your knight- errantship behold in us giants or monsters?'' 20124 ''And what is your name, who are so good a messenger?''
20124''And who sends you?'' 20124 ''Have you never seen him?''
20124''What voice is that?'' 20124 ''What?''
20124''You are, then, obstinately resolved to drive me to extremity,''said he,''and will not consent to my demand?'' 20124 After long months of sad regret Returned!--return''d?
20124And were these fairies?
20124But, if he loves, why does he thus conceal himself?
20124By love and hate''s alternate passions torn, How shall I turn me from my thronging woes? 20124 Do you know what you would destroy?"
20124Is it even so?
20124Is it sin to love him yet? 20124 Is this coast, then, indeed, so dangerous?"
20124Now, Orton had_ taken a fancy_ to the Lord of Coarraze; and, after a pause, he said,''Are you in earnest?''
20124Poustillou qué lettres portis Que si counte tà Paris?
20124Renté, renté, Rey de France, Que si non, qu''en mourt ou pris,Quin seri lou Rey de France?
20124Say, ye waters raging round, Say, ye mountains, bleak and hoar, Is there quiet to be found, Where the world can vex no more? 20124 Tchorittoua, nourat houa Bi hegaliz, aïrian?
20124Tell me, Count, if you would rather Owe your lands and castles high To the Pope, our holy father, Or to sacred chivalry? 20124 What were you dreaming, dear grandmother-- answer me-- what is it?"
20124Why do you moan thus, Françonnette?
20124Why should we not be quite as blest, Without the wealth the great may own? 20124 Yield thee, yield thee straight, King Francis, Death or prison is your lot;""Wherefore call you me King Francis?
20124--"What simple squire art thou, To bid King Henry yield him, And to thy bidding bow?"
20124--exclaimed he, at length, in a terrible voice--"do_ you_ open your arms to me as to your son?
20124Again came the question--"When, in England?"
20124And shall I coldly from thy arms remove, Blush for my birth- place, and disown my love?
20124And to my heart I whisper''d low, When to my fields return''d again,"Is not the Gascon Poet now As happy as the shepherd swain?"
20124And why not, at my bidding, leave me?
20124Borne on thy wings amidst the air, Sweet bird, where wilt thou go?
20124Brilliant and gorgeous as was the present scene, what would have been that which should have welcomed the affianced bride of his son to his court?
20124But who is she advancing this way?
20124But why is her cheek so covered with blushes?
20124Could she be capable of deceiving his affection?
20124Did he gain any by combating against true religion and his conscience?
20124Did not the sorcerer say she was sold to the evil one, and that man bold enough to seek her would find only death in the nuptial chamber?
20124Do I then sigh in vain for thee; And wilt thou, ever thus severe, Be as a cloistered nun to me?
20124Do you not see her cottage shining white through the thick hazel branches?
20124From whence come you, friend?''
20124He sprang towards him, and throwing himself into his arms, exclaimed--"Where are they taking you, dear grandfather?
20124Her husband would say:"''Well, what news have you?--from what country do you come?''
20124I have no longer a relish for that which interested me before-- to what end do I seek to gain wealth?
20124I will forget the brilliant scenes that have bewildered me too long; but to what do I now return?
20124Is he, then, indeed so wretched?"
20124Is my torture, my regret, For his loss-- or for my fall?
20124Is the great merchant, Alexander Auffrédy, still, as he once was, the ornament and benefactor of his native town?"
20124Is there not in yonder tower an_ oubliette_ that yawns for the disobedient vassal?
20124Is this the cold return My tenderness should find?
20124Let them go instantly, or we burn them!--Who presses forward there?"
20124Of all his hosts,--of all his friends, and guards, and warriors, and nobles, what remains to the French king?
20124Qui est celluy qui plus et oultre moy usera de ta saincte force, mais qui sera desormais ton possesseur?
20124Shall I go secretly, as if I were but a disgraced woman?
20124She has such power over those who love her, one would say she was a witch; but with her magic what does she seek?
20124The knight then could not but rouse himself; and, sitting up, cried out,''Who knocks so loud at my chamber at such an hour?''
20124The next day was a triumph for Pau:--"When,"asked every one we met--"when, in_ England_, would you see such a 1st of November?"
20124The question is, could they read_ at all_, and if the epistle were read for them by a more learned neighbour, would not French be as easy as Basque?
20124The sun broke forth, and all looked promising; but where were the towers of the castle?
20124This being the case, how does it agree with the extraordinarily antique origin of the Basques?
20124This news made a strange impression on the mind of Auffrédy,--could it be possible, after all, that she loved him?
20124To conduct me to my grave,[21] I require a friend-- I have none-- will you act the part of one?"
20124Was it possible, thought he, that she had some other attachment?
20124Was it sin to love at all?
20124Were it best a knight and noble Conquer''d by his sword alone, Bearing heat, and cold, and trouble, By his arm to gain his own?"
20124What cries are those so near and so loud?
20124What do I say?
20124What friend''s mansion did he still honour with his presence, and which of his admirers was made happy by seeing him partake of his hospitality?
20124What has the day?
20124What now remained to the brilliant Gaston Phoebus?
20124What wilt thou do for her-- thou whose heart is so soft?"
20124When will my truth be paid, And all thy coldness cease?"
20124Where are the splendid crowns you held out to him?
20124Where is he?"
20124Where is now thy name, thy titles, thy prerogatives?
20124Where is she?
20124Where is the lively maiden?
20124Where was Françonnette?
20124Where was he at the expiration of the second year?
20124Where was the young, blooming, accomplished, and promising heir, so loved by his people, and once the object of his pride and hope?
20124Why banish love and joy thy bowers-- Why thus my passion disapprove?
20124Why did you not let me live and die a Cagot as I was born?
20124Why does she sing no more?
20124Why is my coldness all forgot?
20124Why might not this carefully- attended and richly- adorned queen be the beautiful and fatal"serpent of old Nile"--the fascinating Cleopatra herself?
20124Would they have us hold an open council to hear them, or unite in one common opinion against the Catholic Church?
20124and comes not yet?
20124and how render the whole place sightly without clearing away the rubbish of the old_ Tour__ de la Monnaie_, now built in with shabby tenements?
20124are you not my father?
20124believe me,''tis not bliss, Such triumphs do but purchase pain; What is it to be loved like this, To her who can not love again?
20124desolate, and lamenting for thy noble heir, what is to be thy fate?
20124disé l''infourtunat,"La tendresse et l''amou qui t''ey pourtat Soun aco lous rébuts qu''ey méritat?
20124exclaimed Odon d''Artignelouve;''dost thou give me the lie?
20124for whom should I hoard treasure?
20124he says,''what is there in the world that can compare to liberty?
20124how restore those beautifully- carved door- ways, and cornices, and sculptured windows, elaborate to the very roof?
20124in what have I offended him?
20124must she behold Pascal dead before her?
20124my lords, what have I done to the king that he should quit me?
20124roared the pitiless Odon;''who now is a false traitor, who now has lied, and proved himself a vile impostor?
20124said Guiton;"you all desire it?
20124said he, musing;"you do n''t surely imagine--_do_ you think she would have me?"
20124said the unhappy youth;"for the tenderness and the affection which I have borne towards you, is this wretchedness a fitting reward?
20124say, fair prince, where is your wound?"
20124seest thou not Those words have only pow''r to grieve me?
20124to sing in our distress; It seems the bitterness of woe is less; But if we may not in our language mourn, What will the polish''d give us in return?
20124traitor!--why will you not eat?''
20124what defect finds he in my person?
20124where are thy fiefs and thy domains?
20124who art letters bringing, Tell me what in France is said?"
20124who composed so sweet a lay?"
20124why did you let me wander into a world which I ought never to have known?
20124why did you offend your father?
20124why do you leave us who love you so dearly?"
20124why do you weep?
20124without him what have I?
18327A debt?
18327And Enghien?
18327And he has never left this since?
18327And he?
18327And pray what''s that, Sophy?
18327And where have you been all day, my dear?
18327And who is this Matthew Glendore, whom you are going to see?
18327Any news of the handsome Mr. Daker? 18327 At the_ L''Ombre_--what do you call it, my dear?"
18327Ay; and about ice?
18327Baden-- Homburg, I suppose?
18327But after all, why should n''t he sell the flowers also, when he sells the pretty things he writes about them?
18327Chablis?
18327Do n''t you know the secret? 18327 Do you hear that?"
18327Do you know anything of Amiens?
18327Does she take us to be school girls? 18327 How on earth shall we find our way out?"
18327Is he? 18327 Is it a large place-- busy, thriving?"
18327Is this ever to end? 18327 Laugh and be cheerful?"
18327Lay that roll upon the table-- or I''ll shiver it into a thousand pieces-- and then-- and then----Am I to say more?
18327My dear Q. M., when you have had a headache, has it ever fallen to your lot to be in the company of a pretty woman?
18327My dearest Emmy,--No answer from you? 18327 Nice?"
18327Not a husband''s, you think?
18327Not a word? 18327 Of course not, Mr. Cockayne,"said the lady;"who would look at me, at my time of life?"
18327Perhaps you''ll direct me?'' 18327 Plenty of palavering,"Sharp muttered; then shouted--"Does she know the scoundrel?"
18327Pray, sir-- you have been in London lately-- what did you pay for veal cutlet?
18327The what, my dear? 18327 Was madame ill?
18327What do I know about him? 18327 What do you know about Herbert Daker?"
18327What do you say,he asked,"to a linen- draper''s called the''Siege of Corinth?''
18327What is the matter now, my dear?
18327What kind of fellow was the husband? 18327 What on earth can your father want here?"
18327What then, an entanglement; the old story, petticoats?
18327What''s the matter now?
18327Where is she? 18327 Where is she?
18327Who admires domestic women now? 18327 Whom do you want?"
18327Will you allow me time to get change?
18327Would it be decent to intrude at such a moment?
18327You can not, she''s very ill So ill, I doubt----"And you are here, Bertram?
18327_]Now, my dear, shall I give you_ my_ idea of the mischief?
18327And is it not a good quarter of an hour''s amusement every afternoon to watch the gourmets feasting their eyes on the day''s fare?
18327And suddenly what do we hear?
18327Are you bound south?"
18327Are you his friend?"
18327Ask her how long he has been here?"
18327Ask her-- Does she know anything of this Matthew Glendore?"
18327But are we monsters for all this?
18327But how many have imitated her?
18327But how shall she honour me?
18327But what do we find?
18327But what is that you were reading, my dear Sophonisba, about the_ grande occasion_ near the Louvre Hôtel?
18327But who the deuce was Daker?"
18327But why should I dwell on infelicitous unions of this kind?
18327But,_ que voulez- vous?_ she has not yet given me the opportunity.
18327Can I see her?"
18327Cockayne?"
18327Daker?"
18327Did good country families frequent it?
18327Did n''t you get my letters?"
18327Did you ever see such ears?
18327Did you or I invent racing, and betting, and gambling?
18327Did_ we_ build the clubs, I wonder?
18327Do you hear that?"
18327Do you mean to tell me that a woman must be a fool to have a light hand at pastry?
18327Do_ you_ like being lonely, as you are, my dear?
18327Had I seen a gentleman-- fair,& c.,& c.?
18327Had Mrs. Grundy cast an approving eye into every nook and corner?
18327Have you no shame?
18327He took, therefore, a very early opportunity of asking his betrothed"what this all meant about Monsieur de Gars?"
18327How did the Major get the key into the lock?
18327How gets on the German?
18327How is it that girls delight in stable- talk, and imitate men in their dress and manners?
18327How many women in England, France, and America have taken to the platform?
18327How often in the course of your hypocritical days have you wished me dead?
18327I have heard of people who like to nurse vipers; can friend C. be of this strange band?
18327I wonder whether there are any cheap white elephants in Paris?"
18327In a lottery, somebody must draw the prize; if I have drawn it, am I to be ashamed of my luck?
18327Is it necessary for me to explain myself?
18327Is n''t it quite poetical?"
18327Is that true?
18327Miss Sophonisba, with her grand airs, in her critical letters from Paris-- what kind of a heart had she?
18327New comer, I suppose?"
18327Now, why should not a lady be able to ring for an ice-- and an exquisitely- flavoured Neapolitan ice-- on the shores of"perfidious Albion?"
18327On the other hand, how had she offended Mrs. Cockayne?
18327Passing from my grip, is he?
18327Pray who brought it into the drawing- room?
18327Shall I ever be worthy of her?
18327Shall I ever be worthy of the glorious sky overhead, or of the flowers at my feet?
18327Shall I go further, Emmy, and speak all my mind?
18327Shall I show him in?"
18327That friend of yours did n''t recognise me, did he?"
18327The Cockayne girls are prospering in all the comfort of maternal dignity in the genteel suburbs; and yet were they a patch upon forlorn Emmy Sharp?
18327The demand creates the supply-- is that sound political economy?"
18327The''Butterfly''s Chocolate''?"
18327Then what had become of Mrs. Daker?
18327Unhappy little head, why stir again?
18327Very quiet- looking kind of place, is n''t it?"
18327Was it genteel?
18327Was it likely that a child put thus into the harness of life, would pass the talk of her aunt with Mr. Mohun as the idle wind?
18327Was it respectable?
18327Was not the folding department just as much a sight of Paris as that wretched collection of lumber in the Hôtel Cluny?
18327Was not the shawl- room a sight more than equal to anything to be seen in any other part of Paris?
18327Was somebody wanted?
18327Was there ever an uglier woman?
18327Were all the comforts of an English home to be had?
18327Were not the silks marked at ridiculously low prices?
18327What do we want?
18327What do you want to know about the massacre of St. Bartholomew now?
18327What do_ you_ about him?
18327What has happened?"
18327What hotel were they to use?
18327What is she like in society?
18327What is she?
18327What on earth can you be thinking about?
18327What was it they said, Sophy, my dear?"
18327What was it we saw, my dear, in the Rue Saint Honoré?
18327When I turn the corner just outside the hotel, what do I see in one of the most fashionable print- shops?
18327When did you meet him?"
18327When women go wrong, who leads the way?
18327Where has the slang come from?
18327Where is he?"
18327Where was her husband''s portmanteau?
18327Where?
18327Which is the way?
18327Who could be near her, and not feel the chivalry in his soul warm to such a woman?
18327Who created the uproar?
18327Who paid for Todger''s last go?
18327Who the devil is this Viscount de Gars, to begin with?"
18327Who was drunk last night?
18327Who was hiding at Marquise?
18327Why should I envy him?
18327Why should there not be a Neapolitan ice_ café_ like this in London?
18327Would she have some_ eau sucrée?_"She had fainted!
18327You found no clue to a history?"
18327You got his name, of course?"
18327You have been to Chantilly, of course?"
18327living for appearances?"
18327or the''Good Devil''?"
18327or the''Great Condé?''
18327what would you have?
18327where is she, Glendore?
38997''Is it possible that you have not heard what has happened to her?'' 38997 A quoi pensez- vous, Madame Trollope?"
38997An Irish republic? 38997 And I,"says another,--"is it of such as I and my cotemporary fellow- labourers in the vast field of new- ploughed speculation that you speak?"
38997And how old is she, this unhappy Mademoiselle Isabelle?
38997And in sufficient force, are they not, to keep Paris quiet if she should feel disposed to be frolicsome?
38997And that little odd- looking man in black,said I,"who is he?...
38997And that pretty woman in the corner?
38997And that, you think, would be accepted as a passport through any scene of treason and rebellion?
38997And what do you think of the troops?
38997And why?
38997And, I too,groans another,--"am I not famous?
38997Anything?--or nothing?
38997Are not those young ladies who have just finished their quadrille unmarried?
38997But are all the National Guards true?
38997But how can you help it? 38997 But how is this repose to be obtained?"
38997But such is your opinion?
38997But surely, being brought forward to dance in a waltz or quadrille, is not the sort of consequence which we either of us mean?
38997But what would your inference be as to the state of the country from such reports as these?
38997But when she is given to him, do you think this process more desirable than before?
38997Comment?--de la trahison?... 38997 Did you not say you had seen the review?"
38997Do you know--------?
38997Does the_ anything_ mean a revolution? 38997 Et quel est ce repos?
38997Et quel est donc ce repos? 38997 Have you heard l''Abbé Coeur?"
38997Have you read it?
38997I rejoice to hear this,said I:"but may I, as a matter of curiosity, ask you what you think about this famous trial?
38997Intéressante? 38997 Is there any interesting news to- day in any of the papers?"
38997Is this interval of calm likely to be followed by a storm?
38997Mais ne voyez- vous pas que l''eau tombe, messieurs?
38997Mais... que sais- je?... 38997 N''est- ce pas?
38997Ne sont- ce point là, mes frères, les paroles qui tombent chaque jour menaçantes de la chaire de l''Eglise Romaine?... 38997 Non, sans doute... vous dira le clergé romain, puisque Dieu a consacré le septième jour au repos?
38997Not enter?
38997Or----?
38997Or----?
38997Precise? 38997 Seen what?"
38997That is true; but do you not find that what you hear from one person is often contradicted by another?
38997The ostensible heroines?...
38997Then what can you do at last but judge by what you see?
38997Unmarried women?... 38997 Vous m''avez oublié donc?"
38997What call you reputation, woman?
38997What can be the difference, ma''am,said the poor body who told me this,"between us and Madame C---- in this illness?
38997What is there in a name?
38997What, then, becomes of them?
38997Where is the law, my good lady, that may control necessity?... 38997 Who is there can endure fire and flame for ever, for ever, and for ever?"
38997Whom can you have been listening to?
38997Will they do anything to assist it?
38997Will you then have the kindness to explain to me the difference in this respect between France and England?
38997You do not know M. de Châteaubriand?
38997... à présent il n''y a que cela au monde.... You read the journals?"
38997After she had run her tilt against authority, she broke off, exclaiming--"Mais, après tout,--what does it signify?...
38997An old noble-- page to Louis Seize-- a royalist soldier in La Vendée,--how could I think otherwise?
38997And how do they support this claim?
38997And might we not exclaim for her in all kindness--"Let but the cheat endure!--She asks not aught beside?"
38997And where is the living artist who could stand his ground against such cruel odds?
38997And you really have been fortunate enough to fall in with one of these_ enfans perdus_?
38997Apropos de quoi, s''il vous plaît?...
38997Are not my delicious tales of unschooled nature in the hands of every free- born youth and tender maid in this our regenerated Athens?
38997Are the execrations of the noble beings enslaved, imprisoned, tortured, trampled on by tyranny, a result?
38997But against this, it were a vain boast to add,"And for my soul, what can it do to that, Being a thing immortal as itself?"
38997But do you not think that the irritation produced by these preparations at the Luxembourg is of considerable extent and violence?"
38997But you will allow also that, however rare they may be in England, such records of scandal and of shame are rarer still in France?"
38997Can anything be imagined more tantalising than this?
38997Can the place where one comes to look for this be favourable for hanging our illustrious countryman''s representation of the same subject?
38997Could it be memory?
38997Depuis quand n''est- il plus permis à un roi de courtiser sur la scène une servante d''auberge?...
38997Did Greece ever show any combination of stones and mortar more graceful, more majestic than this?
38997Do I not receive yearly some hundreds of francs for my sublime familiarity with sin and misery?
38997Do they not group well together?
38997Do you know of any English ladies thus devoted to the study of the soul?"...
38997Do you think that the best smile of Louis le Grand could be worth this?
38997Do your countrymen think so?
38997Est- ce un malheur si grand que de cesser de vivre?
38997Have you not tried, and found you could make nothing of it?"
38997Have you seen it yet?"
38997How do you think it will end?"
38997I am no longer a true and loyal knight in your estimation... but something, perhaps, very like a rebel and a traitor?...
38997I believe my countenance expressed my astonishment; for the old gentleman smiled and said,"Do I frighten you with my revolutionary principles?"
38997If it cost too much to have a good new piece, would it not be better to have a good old one?
38997In England, if a woman is seen going through all the manoeuvres of the flirting exercise, from the first animating reception of the"How d''ye do?"
38997Is he not handsome?
38997Is it not so?"
38997Is it not that they declare themselves to be more true to nature?
38997Is it not wonderful what a difference twenty- one miles of salt- water can make in the ways and manners of people?
38997Is it thus that the Reform Bill, and all the other horrible Bills in its train, are to be interpreted?
38997Is not that your meaning?"
38997Is not this fame, infamous slanderer?"
38997Is not this fame?"
38997Is not this marvellous?
38997Is not this using the spur where the rein is most wanting?
38997Is not what is good for the poor, good for the rich too?"
38997Is she married, then?''
38997Is the burning indignation of millions of Frenchmen a result?
38997Is there anything in the world that can be fairly said to resemble the Gardens of the Tuileries?
38997Is there in any language a word that can raise so many shuddering sensations as"_ La Morgue_?"
38997It is for the justification and protection of the National Guard;--and are we not all National Guards?"
38997Mais c''est égal-- they are all very good friends again.... Now, tell me whom I shall introduce to you?"
38997Might we not say, that Thought and affliction, passion, death itself, They turn to favour and to prettiness?
38997N''aura- t- il à espérer aucun adoucissement à ses peines?...
38997Now you understand it?...
38997O, what could be the fleeting visions formed that worked her fancy thus?
38997Oh, by the way, that is a peer that you are looking at now;--he has refused to sit on the trial.... Now, have I not done_ l''impossible_ for you?"
38997Or was it none of this, but a mere meaningless movement of the muscles, that worked in idle mockery of the intellect that used to govern them?
38997Or was the fitful emotion caused by the galloping vagaries of an imagination which outstripped the power of reason to follow it?
38997Où suis- je?
38997Que peut être le motif d''une pareille mesure?...
38997Qui est- ce qui veut les nier?...
38997Shall we ever experience this?
38997Tell me truly, is there any chance of a riot?"
38997The important question of"What colours shall we mix?"
38997The weather is so fine now, you know.... And the opera?
38997They are yet to come, but come they will; and when they do, think you that the next revolution will be one of three days?
38997They did make you master-- they have had their holiday, and now....""And now..."said I,"what will come next?"
38997Was it cannon?...
38997Was it possible to doubt that the paper in his hand was"Le Journal des Débats?"
38997What do you call result, madam?
38997What is it you mean?
38997Whence comes this change?
38997Where could be found a lesson so striking as this to a people who are weary of being governed, and desire, one and all, to govern themselves?
38997Where do all the externals of happiness meet the eye so readily?--or where can the heavy spirit so easily be roused to seek and find enjoyment?
38997Which of the most accomplished Hellenists of either country would be found capable of sustaining a familiar conversation in Greek?
38997While they remained there, a royal carriage passed, and one of the party said--"It is the queen, I believe?"
38997Who can wonder at his madness?
38997Why can no arms move with the same beautiful and easy elegance?
38997Why is it that none of the young heads can learn to turn like hers?
38997Why might not our National Gallery have risen as noble, as simple, as beautiful as this?
38997Why should the lowest passions of our nature be for ever brought out in parade before us?
38997Why should we make a pastime of looking upon vulgar vice?
38997Will you hear it, Madame B...?"
38997Would it be a pun to say that there is poetical justice in this?
38997You think, then,"she continued,"that our young married women are made of too much importance among us?"
38997Your orders precise to refuse me?"
38997and are not my works read by''Young France''with ecstasy?
38997cries one;"have not I achieved a reputation?
38997does Europe think so?
38997qu''est- ce que cela fait?
38997que puis- je au milieu de ce peuple abattu?
38997que t''a- t- on fait?
38997said he coaxingly,"will you let me tell you a little word of treason?"
38997says a third:"do not the theatres overflow when I send murder, lust, and incest on the stage, to witch the world with wondrous wickedness?"
38997was it possible to believe that this man was other than a prosperous doctrinaire?
39710And in what manner does this activity of intellect interfere to impede the course of justice?
39710And what is the effect which this strangely assumed power has produced on your administration of justice?
39710And what is the recompense which you would propose, sir?
39710And your jurymen, according to a phrase of contempt common among us, are in fact judge and jury both?
39710Are you not gênés,said he,"by my being here to listen to all that you and yours may be disposed to say of us and ours?...
39710Are you prepared to be very much enchanted by what you are going to hear?
39710Because we are virtuous, shall there be no more cakes and ale?
39710But I presume you do not yourself subscribe to the sentence pronounced by these young critics?
39710But the single ladies no longer young?
39710But what right have they to doubt it?... 39710 Can not Alexa go too, mamma?"
39710Can you not tell me something of her character?
39710Certainly I do, sir,I replied:"how can I interpret it otherwise?"
39710Combien de temps vous faut- il pour vous préparer? 39710 Did you dine much in private society?"
39710Did you ever see anything like the fashion which this man has obtained?
39710Do you consider their appearing here a proof that they are religious?
39710Does public opinion sanction this strange abuse of the functions of jurymen?
39710Have I not told you?... 39710 Have you never met her before?
39710Have you read the works of the_ young men_ of France?
39710I presume,said I,"that Madame de C*** is not the only person towards whom this remarkable species of tolerance is exercised?"
39710I will tell you of what you all remind me at this moment,said he, reseating himself:"Did you ever see or read''Le Médecin malgré Lui''?"
39710Il eut la bonté de me lire les sommaires des chapitres-- Lequel choisir, lequel préférer? 39710 In what respect?"
39710Invariably?
39710Is it possible that the escape of a bird can have brought all these people together?
39710Is it possible you can really think so, my dear sir?
39710Is it since your last revolution,said I,"that the punishment of death has been commuted for that of imprisonment and labour?"
39710Is that all?
39710Is this the use your French romancers make of letters?
39710Non?... 39710 Où?
39710Pensez- vous Qu''Arthur voulût revoir Mademoiselle de Sommery?
39710Prête à quoi? 39710 Que puis- je dire maintenant de ces Mémoires?"
39710Quel poison? 39710 Voulez vous, madame?
39710Vous savez qui je suis? 39710 Well?"
39710What did happen to him?
39710What did we fight for?
39710What is this, Betty?
39710Who is that very elegant- looking woman?
39710Will you do me the favour to let me copy this receipt?
39710You are astonished at seeing her here? 39710 You are in earnest?"
39710You have, I think, no national cuisine?
39710... did you not see that?...
39710... is not this too hard?"
39710... le grand opéra?
39710... might one not fancy oneself at a première représentation?"
39710... said he, pointing to the tombs within the enclosure:"was it not to make France and Frenchmen free?...
39710Alexa dear, what will you do without us?"
39710And do they call it freedom to be locked up in a prison... actually locked up?...
39710And is it possible that such a mind as hers can be insensible to the glory of enchanting the best and purest spirits in the world?...
39710And what has been the result of all this?
39710And what was the piece, can you guess, which produced this effect upon us?...
39710Au lieu de demander où elle est, ne devrait- on pas demander où n''est- elle pas?
39710But must I write to you in sober earnest about this comic tragedy?
39710But what can not zealous kindness effect?
39710But when did ever the surface of human affairs present an aspect so full of interest?
39710Can I better keep the promise I gave you yesterday than by writing you a letter of and concerning le grand opéra?
39710Can we fairly doubt that, in many cases where we consider ourselves as perfectly well- informed, we may be quite as much in the dark respecting them?
39710Can we wonder that feelings, and even principles, are found to bend before an influence so salutary and so strong?
39710Can we wonder that the Morgue is seldom untenanted?...
39710Can you wonder that I was delighted?
39710Do they not seem an echo to the sound she describes?
39710En avez- vous eu une, vous?...
39710Est- ce qu''il y a quelque mouvement?"
39710Est- ce que c''est coupable tout ce que je dis là de lui?
39710Et savez- vous ce que c''est que Venise?...
39710Gaillardet et***** have brought together?
39710Has the dialogue either dignity, spirit, or truth of nature to recommend it?
39710Have you got Bernardin de Saint Pierre, ma chère?"
39710His first remark after we were placed at table was,--"You do not, I think, use table- napkins in England;--do you not find them rather embarrassing?"
39710How can you expect such blind confidence from me?"
39710How can you get away?
39710How is it possible to find or invent any device that can save you from enduring to the end?
39710I confess that I envy them their beautiful giraffe; but what else have they which we can not equal?
39710I fancied that I misunderstood him, and repeated his words,--"With the jury?"
39710Is it not wonderful that the Emperor of Constantinople could consent to part with such precious treasures for the lucre of gain?
39710Is it possible to conceive affected sublimity and genuine nonsense carried farther than this?
39710Is it to the Convention, or to the Directory?--Is it to their mimicry of Roman Consulships?
39710Is there a single sentiment throughout the five acts with which an honest man can accord?
39710Is there anything in the world so perfectly French as this?
39710Is there even an approach to grace or beauty in the_ tableaux_?
39710Is there, in truth, any picture much less new than that of a gondola, with a guitar in it, gliding along the canals of Venice?
39710Is this possible?...
39710Is this tact?
39710Justice encore rendu, que ne t''a- t- on?
39710Le monde nous demande de belles peintures-- où en seraient les types?
39710Ma mère fut saisie sur- le- champ-- elle ne dit rien... a quoi bon?
39710Mais que voulez- vous?
39710My voice may well falter-- unknown is my name, But say, must my accents prove therefore in vain?
39710My words, I think, were,--"Pourriez- vous me dire, madame, ce que signifie tout ce monde?...
39710Ne le croyez pas; c''est la mienne qu''il vous faut...""Et vous, monsieur-- c''est un cheval qui vous manque, n''est- ce pas?
39710Non, n''est- ce pas?"
39710Or is it knowledge,--real, genuine, substantial information respecting all things?
39710Quand donc au corps qu''académique on nomme, Grimperas- tu de roc en roc, rare homme?"
39710Que veux- tu que je te dise?
39710Query-- Do not the Germans furnish something very like this juste milieu?
39710Savez- vous ce que c''est que d''avoir une mère?
39710Shall I have the amiability to depart?"
39710Shall I tell you how it has been done in Paris?
39710Slaves have got chains on... qu''est- ce que cela fait?...
39710Suis- je un hors- d''oeuvre, un inutile article, Une cinquième roue ajoutée au tricycle?"
39710Surely he would hardly be permitted to preach at Notre Dame, where the archbishop himself sits in judgment on him, were he otherwise than orthodox?"
39710Tell me-- is there not some truth in this idea?"
39710Then Rodolpho says to Catarina,"Par qui as- tu été sauvée?"
39710This is a strange statement, is it not?
39710Treason and rapine, of course, if time be ripe for it-- but_ en attendant_?
39710Trouves- tu cela bien arrangé ainsi?"
39710What can be said in defence of such an act?...
39710What is there which men, and most especially Frenchmen, will not suffer and endure to hear that note?
39710What may it be?...
39710What would Saintfoix say to the notion that Victor Hugo had"heaved the ground from beneath the feet of Corneille and Racine"?
39710What would become of all the parties for amusement which take place morning, noon, and night in Paris, if this race were extinct?
39710What would the LIBERALS of Europe have said of King Louis- Philippe, had he acted upon this republican principle?
39710Where is the retreat that can be secured from it?
39710Why trembled the tear- drop so oft in mine eye?
39710Why, what would you do for an old nurse?"
39710With cheeks burning from steam and vexation, can you plead a sudden faintness?
39710a- t- il raison, ce Bernardin?"
39710and if it be not, what follows?...
39710c''est la première idée qui vous vient?"
39710can a slave be worse than that?
39710can you love me?"
39710huchera- t- on ton nom?
39710or has his restless star to rise again?
39710or skill in the arrangement of the scenes?
39710or that I have thought the occurrence worth dwelling upon with some degree of lingering fondness?
39710or, in short, any one merit to recommend it-- except only its superlative defiance of common decency and common sense?
39710said I:"what is it that you suppose was out of the common way?"
39710she continued;--"forgive me... but is it really supposed that they pass their entire lives without any indiscretion at all?"
39710she repeated with a very speaking smile:"est- ce que madame est effrayée?...
39710she repeated, laughing;"then you really find nothing extraordinary in this proceeding-- nothing out of the common way?"
39710why was my bosom with sorrow oppress''d?
39710y a- t- il une autre bête comme la mienne?..."
33319''Afraid of thieves? 33319 ''And what are_ you_ doing?''
33319''And where is my fine gray mare?'' 33319 ''Are you in pain?''
33319''But why do you not take a_ man_?'' 33319 ''But why is your music so sad, my good harper man; what is there that you would have that fortune denies?''
33319''Colic, said ye? 33319 ''From whence does it come?''
33319''Has your Worship no commands?'' 33319 ''I wish that old Stephen Sly was here, and John Naps and Peter Turf, and my wife Joan, and Marian Hacket: would n''t it be jolly?''
33319''See you not Loch Lomond silvered in the moon?'' 33319 ''Then why are you not married?''
33319''Then why not leave the door at home too?'' 33319 ''To the priest''s, to be married?''
33319''What are those queer- looking things yonder?'' 33319 ''What are you doing?''
33319''What is to be done?'' 33319 ''What is your wish?''
33319''What will your Worship have this morning?'' 33319 ''What''s here?''
33319''What,''said Robert,''shall we let our brother die of thirst? 33319 ''Whither away?''
33319''Who is your lord?'' 33319 ''Why do you carry that door?''
33319''Why do you wander here, my good harper?'' 33319 A what?"
33319And what is the result?
33319And what is_ that_?
33319Are the passengers here more likely to be sick than in the first cabin?
33319Are they like Mrs. Jarley''s''wax figgers?''
33319Are you sure you treated Tommy quite right at the first meeting?
33319Are you sure?
33319Before we go to Windsor Castle,said Frank Gray to Master Lewis,"will you not tell us something about the place?"
33319But how should they accomplish the end? 33319 But why a secret society?"
33319By whom?
33319Can a ship meeting another ask other questions in this way?
33319Can you now repeat it?
33319Can you tell us the story?
33319Carlisle? 33319 Carlisle?"
33319Did Prince Henry succeed his father as king? 33319 Did the mighty Guy drink as much porridge as that at every meal?"
33319Did you ever know any thing like it in your life? 33319 Did you ever see a bear in the backwoods?"
33319Did you ever see a wild man?
33319Did you think I could not speak French well enough to go out alone?
33319Do you collect leaves at all the historic places you visit?
33319Do you ever sing the songs of Burns?
33319Do you sing?
33319Do? 33319 Dunno,"said Sad Eyes;"''ave ye got a penny?"
33319Had the poet been to London when he wrote,--''Oh, then and there was hurrying to and fro''?
33319Have you decided upon a secret?
33319Have you obtained your return tickets?
33319He presently added;''Do you not hear the music?'' 33319 He stripped his back, and allowed the monks to whip him, did he not?"
33319Highland Mary?
33319How could it be done? 33319 How far can that boat go on in that way?"
33319How many feet high is the Countess? 33319 How much do you think their whole tour will cost them?"
33319How much does it hold?
33319How much will the whole trip cost you?
33319I guess yer lost, ar''n''t ye?
33319In midsummer?
33319Is Chateaubriand living yet?
33319Is he thrown to the ground?
33319Is he wounded?
33319Is my son killed?
33319Is that the secret?
33319Is the story a true one?
33319Is_ she_ living?
33319Is_ she_ living?
33319It is a very old city, is it not?
33319Now perhaps you would like to hear''When first I came to merry Carlisle''?
33319Now, what do you suppose the jolly harper man did? 33319 O Frank,"he said,"how could you?
33319Of course there can be no truth in the tradition of Joseph of Arimathæa and the White Thorn?
33319Punch- and- Judy hunting?
33319Return a watch?
33319She dropped the frog into the plate of the startled guest, and passing around the table, with a liberal supply of the reptiles, said,''Have some? 33319 The Louvre?"
33319The Tuileries?
33319The bark that held a prince went down, The sweeping waves roll''d on; And what was England''s glorious crown To him that wept a son? 33319 The cow?"
33319The first question to be decided,said Tommy, when the boys had met in his room,"is, Shall we organize a secret society?"
33319The flies, or water- omnibuses?
33319Then it is correct?
33319Then the jolly harper man returned the king''s horse to the royal owner: and who ever heard of such a thing as a king breaking his promise? 33319 Then what is the difference between the cabin and the steerage?"
33319To- night?
33319Tommy,said Master Lewis, from within the coach,"are you_ sure_?"
33319Were you afraid to trust me alone this morning?
33319What are signals of distress?
33319What book?
33319What did she do?
33319What did you do?
33319What do you intend to do with them?
33319What for?
33319What has interested you most in Scotland?
33319What is it?
33319What is?
33319What kind of a cow was that?
33319What made that cow come up from the ground?
33319What shall we see there?
33319What time of the evening do you think it is?
33319What was Joan of Arc made of?
33319What was to be done? 33319 What will you have?"
33319What, Frank, has been the most interesting object you have seen?
33319When will you return?
33319Where are the ruins caused by the siege and the Commune?
33319Where are yer going,_ yer honor_?
33319Where are your bow and arrows?
33319Where did you get_ them_?
33319Where is Frank?
33319Where is your home?
33319Where were the children of Edward murdered?
33319Where will you go to- day?
33319Where?
33319Which is the way to Regent Street?
33319Who may that be?
33319Who shall decide upon a secret?
33319Who was her daughter?
33319Who was the Man of the Iron Mask?
33319Who went to sea in a bowl?
33319Who will prepare the rules for the society?
33319Who would volunteer? 33319 Who, then, was this person of mystery, familiarly known as the Man of the Iron Mask?
33319Why did n''t you tell me the thing was bewitched?
33319Why good- by?
33319Why, did you never hear of the Letters of Madame de Sévigné?
33319Why?
33319Wild people?
33319Will some one collect the slips?
33319Will you direct me to a street where I can find a hack?
33319Will you not let me go with you?
33319Will you not read their letter to us?
33319Will you not tell us the history of Rizzio?
33319Will you not tell us the story?
33319Would you like to hear me try''Highland Mary''?
33319Would you like to know what lovely- looking creatures these Norman peasant girls are, and how they look?
33319Would you like to visit Chateaubriand''s birthplace with me?
33319You do not think that a church like this would be guilty of imposture, do you?
33319You remember the story?
33319Your meaning I discern; Such honest lads are seldom found: And when would_ you_ return?
33319_ Voulez- vous m''indiquer quelqu''un qui parle l''Anglais?_"_ Je ne comprends pas._"_ Ne comprenez- vous Français?_said Tommy.
33319_ Voulez- vous m''indiquer quelqu''un qui parle l''Anglais?_"_ Je ne comprends pas._"_ Ne comprenez- vous Français?_said Tommy.

33319Are her letters there?"
33319Are there wild animals in the woods here?"
33319Are you surprised that Frenchmen should rise against such a state of things as this?"
33319Can I forget the hallowed grove, Where by the winding Ayr we met, To live one day of parting love?
33319Can this be done?
33319Could you not make some arrangement to admit us?"
33319Did you ever hear of Peter the Wild Boy found in the woods in Hanover?"
33319Do you think it will?"
33319Do you think we shall ever see land again?"
33319Do you wonder the people of France desired a Constitution for their protection?
33319Ernest Wynn was at the bottom of this, was n''t he?"
33319He gave me a dreadful cut across my back, and said,--"Where''d yer come from?
33319He said to one after another of the very polite people he chanced to meet,--"Please, sir[ or madam], do you speak English?"
33319How did we get here?
33319I handed him the bow, and what do you think he did with it?
33319I say,''ave you han hache or a pain?
33319It is a letter written--""By Shakspeare?"
33319It was this king, was it not, whose mother offered a beautiful manuscript to the one of her four sons who would first learn to repeat it from memory?
33319Louis?"
33319Now, Tommy, what is the most attractive thing_ you_ have seen?"
33319Perhaps you would like to hear''Mona''s Waters?''"
33319That sacred hour can I forget?
33319The boys''faces, too, were cloudy, and each one pressed Master Lewis with the question,"What shall we do?"
33319There stood proud forms around his throne, The stately and the brave; But which could fill the place of one, That one beneath the wave?
33319Were you ever sick on the ocean?
33319What became of their children?"
33319What good will that do?"

33319Who ever knew any mischief to happen when everybody was asleep?
33319Who that has read of the London"Zoo"has not wished to visit it?

33319Who wrote that?"
33319Will you go with me?"

7373'';_ for''what is the road to?''
7373''Anything else?''
7373''Can not you see for yourself that it is open?''
7373''Can you in an hour,''said I,''give me a meal to my order, then a bed, though it is early day?''
7373''How many Jews have you in your town?''
7373''Men?''

7373''The poor in our great towns, Sir Charles''( for the Learned Man had been made a Baronet),''the condition, I say, of the-- Don''t I feel a draught?''
7373''Tourist- e?''
7373''What do you mean?''
7373''What have you?''
7373''Why then?''
7373''Yes, of course,''I said,''but what is its name?''
7373''_ meaning''Dare you ask fivepence?''
7373--Where was I?
7373...?...
7373And I say to them, what about the distribution of the ownership of the concentrated means of production?
7373And did you see nothing of Piacenza?
7373And how far on was that?
7373And if you are so worn- out and bereft of all emotions, how can you tell a story?
7373And it rained all the time, and there was mud?
7373And so I was forced to consider and to be anxious, for how would this money hold out?
7373And was it not his loneliness that enabled him to see it?
7373And what art or songs have you?
7373And what do you think he did at that?
7373And what is there else but pleasure, and to what else does beauty move on?
7373And what of that?
7373And when you have arrested him, can you do more than let him go without proof, on his own word?
7373And where are you?''
7373And who is a penny the better for it?
7373And why do you suppose I got it?
7373And why( you will say) is all this put by itself in what Anglo- Saxons call a Foreword, but gentlemen a Preface?
7373And, by the way, would you like to know why universities suffer from this curse of nervous disease?
7373And, tell me-- what can it profit you to know these geographical details?
7373As_ La Croix_ said in a famous leading article:_''La Presse?
7373But Mr_( deleted by the Censor)_ does not think so?
7373But all that does not excuse an intolerable prolixity?
7373But all this is by the way; the point is, why was the eight francs and ten centimes of such importance just there and then?
7373But could it be done?
7373But do you intend to tell us nothing of Rome?
7373But perhaps you have been reading little brown books on Evolution, and you do n''t believe in Catastrophes, or Climaxes, or Definitions?
7373But what is it?
7373But what rule governs all this?
7373But why did_ this_ tenth milestone from_ this_ Roman town keep its name?
7373But, frankly, do you suppose I came all this way over so many hills to talk economics?
7373Can the sun be said truly to rise or set, and is there any exact meaning in the phrase,''Done to a turn''as applied to omelettes?
7373Che sono forestiere?
7373Che vole?
7373Che?
7373Come, let me do so... Where are you?
7373Could you give me a little red wine?''
7373Could you give me a little red wine?''
7373Did something in my accent suggest wealth?
7373Did you suppose that I thought it was called Decimo because the people had ten toes?
7373Did you think I missed you, hiding and lurking there?)
7373Do I make myself clear?
7373Do you follow?
7373Do you know those books and stories in which parts of the dialogues often have no words at all?
7373Do you want it made plainer than that?
7373Eh?
7373Eh?
7373Eh?
7373Eh?
7373For who, having noise around him, can strike the table with pleasure at reading the Misanthrope, or in mere thirst or in fatigue praise Chinon wine?
7373Had he opinions?
7373Have you a priest in Calestano, and does he know Latin?''
7373Have you not read in books how men when they see even divine visions are terrified?
7373Have you seen anything moving on the heights?''
7373He said,''What do you want?''
7373How came I at such an hour on foot?
7373How can a man draw pain in the foot and knee?
7373How does their opinion flourish?''
7373How many more interior brackets are we to have?
7373How much more interesting must Old Lodi be which is the mothertown of Lodi?''
7373How much more is it the duty of a Christian man to pity the rich who can not ever get into prison?
7373How then would you write such a book if you had the writing of it?
7373How''German''?
7373I approached a priest and said to him:_''Pater, quando vel a quella hora e la prossimma Missa?
7373I caught him up, and, doubting much whether he would understand a word, I said to him repeatedly--_''La granda via?
7373I know that; but what am I to do?
7373I put my head in at the door and said--''Am I in Switzerland?''
7373I said''_ Molinar_?''''
7373I said,''Have you any beans?''
7373I should very much like to know what those who have an answer to everything can say about the food requisite to breakfast?
7373I spoke to the woman, and pointing at the tin cans, said--''Is this what you call open wine?''
7373I thought you said you were not going to talk economics?
7373I wonder what the people are paid for it?
7373II san Gottardo?
7373If it did, I think there is a little question on''why should habit turn sacred?''
7373In the name of all decent, common, and homely things, why not begin and have done with it?
7373Indeed?
7373Is it not art?
7373Is it not much wiser to arrest such a man?
7373Is this algebra?
7373It is worth eight''scutcheons the hectolitre, that is, eight sols the litre; what do I say?
7373It is years ago now... Michael, what are those little things swarming up and down all over it?''
7373Just as I neared them, hobbling, I met a man driving two cows, and said to him the word,''Guest- house?''
7373La via a Piacenza?
7373May he not cut off it, as his due, twenty- five miserable little miles in the train?''
7373Non se vede che non parlar vestra lingua?
7373Now, why did he say this and grin happily like a gargoyle appeased?
7373Only dots and dashes and asterisks and interrogations?
7373Pray are we to have any more of that fine writing?
7373Pray, sir, will you not look at other maps for a moment?''
7373Shall I detail all that afternoon?
7373Shall a man march through Europe dragging an artist on a cord?
7373Shall an artist write a book?
7373She was moreover not exactly of- what shall I say?
7373So I, very narrowly watching him out of half- closed eyes, held up my five fingers interrogatively, and said,_''Cinquante?
7373So you think one can say a plain thing in a plain way?
7373Tell me at least one thing; did you see the Coliseum?
7373Tell me, Lector, had this man any adventures?
7373Tell me, do you believe in the peak of the Matterhorn, and have you doubts on the points of needles?
7373Tell me, why is not every place ten miles out of a Roman town called by such a name?
7373The woman as sulkily said to me, not looking me in the eyes--''How much will you pay?''
7373Then I added,''Can you make omelettes?''
7373Then I gave a lira to the molinar, and to his companion on stilts 50 c., who said,''What is this for?''
7373Then I said to the molinar,_''Quanta?
7373Then I said,_''Soixante Dix?
7373Then I thought,''Shall I take a favour from such a man?''
7373Then tell me, how would you treat of common things?
7373Then the soldiers began calling out to him singly,''Where are you off to, Father, with that battery?''
7373Then they say to me, what about the concentration of the means of production?
7373Then they talked a great deal together, while I shouted,_''Quid vis?
7373Then what emotions have you had, unimprisonable rich; or what do you know of active living and of adventure?
7373Then you will say, if I felt all this, why do I draw it, and put it in my book, seeing that my drawings are only for fun?
7373Then, to make conversation, I said,_''Diaconus es?
7373This comfort I ascribe to four causes( just above you will find it written that I could not tell why this should be so, but what of that?
7373Thus he told me the name for a knife was_ cultello;_ for a room,_ camera par domire;_ for''what is it called?''
7373Thus she would say:''Perhaps the joint would taste better if it were carved on the table; or do the gentlemen prefer it carved aside?''
7373To the man who had brought me I gave 50 c., and so innocent and good are these people that he said_''Pourquoi?
7373To what emotion shall I compare this astonishment?
7373Tu ris?
7373Vis ne me assassinare?
7373Visne mi dare traductionem in istam linguam Toscanam non nullorum verborum?
7373Was it in so small a space that all the legends of one''s childhood were acted?
7373Was the defence of the bridge against so neighbouring and petty an alliance?
7373Well, it was a short play and modern, was it not?
7373What I want to know is, why a duchess?
7373What about him?
7373What about that great work on The National Debt?
7373What about that little lyric on Winchelsea that you thought of writing six years ago?
7373What about the Brigand of Radicofani of whom you spoke in Lorraine, and of whom I am waiting to hear?
7373What could prevent me?
7373What did I at Lodi Vecchio?
7373What did the old sailor say to the young fool?
7373What do you think, then, was the consequence?
7373What do you turn out, you higglers and sticklers?
7373What else is Venice?
7373What is all this?
7373What is it, do you think, that causes the return?
7373What is ninety miles?
7373What is that in a Book?
7373What is that in the mind which, after( it may be) a slight disappointment or a petty accident, causes it to suffer on the scale of grave things?
7373What is the Grand Climacteric?
7373What is the meaning of that?''
7373What rhodomontade and pedantry is this talk about the shape of a window?
7373What road could it be?
7373What was it I saw?
7373What will you do for fame?
7373Where are they?
7373Where could such a road lead, and why did it follow right along the highest edge of the mountains?
7373Where had I come from?
7373Where( if I was honest) had I intended to sleep?
7373Who began it?
7373Who but Germans would so feel the mystery of the hills, and so fit their town to the mountains?
7373Who but Germans would so preserve-- would so rebuild the past?
7373Who can not live on four francs a day?
7373Who does not need for either of these perfect things Recollection, a variety of according conditions, and a certain easy Plenitude of the Mind?
7373Who else can give benedictions if people can not when they are on pilgrimage?
7373Who knows?
7373Who would change( says Aristippus of Pslinthon) the moon and all the stars for so much wine as can be held in the cup of a bottle upturned?
7373Why are the few lines still in your head and not on paper?
7373Why could it not be crossed?
7373Why do you use phrases like_''possible exception''?_ AUCTOR.
7373Why not?
7373Why on earth did you write this book?
7373Why should I?
7373Why should the less gracious part of a pilgrimage be specially remembered?
7373Why was I there?
7373Why was the guardian a duchess?
7373Why your benediction?
7373Why, what was the next point in the pilgrimage that was even tolerably noteworthy?
7373Why?
7373Why?
7373Why?
7373Why?
7373You follow?
7373You think that, do you?
7373You would simply say what you had to say?

7373or was he naturally kindly?
7373said the Padre Eterno, a little puzzled...''The Earth?
7373sneered the Devil,''are you an anti- vaccinationist as well?
7373without a ghost of an idea what you are talking about, do you know what is meant by the god?
21498Pray why?
21498What is the use of that?
21498''And, pray, why not?''
21498''Are they Boulangists, or do they simply dislike Carnot?''
21498''Are you speaking seriously?''
21498''But how is it with the royalists?''
21498''But if this is the way in which they look at things, why do they clamour for Boulanger?''
21498''But the President is going on to Boulogne, is he not?''
21498''Did all this give the man any right to destroy and carry away a costly piece of artistic work, the property of the city?''
21498''Did he like this?''
21498''Do you know Lens?
21498''Do you remember,''he went on,''how Ferry went to Rome after his expulsion from power?
21498''Do you speak for the Government?''
21498''For having trouble with the Christian Brothers?''
21498''Had there been any disturbances anywhere?''
21498''He is beginning to stand out against the horizon, is he not?''
21498''How did he take it?
21498''How do you find the plan work?''
21498''How many years ago was it,''I asked,''when this Congregation began its work in the United States?''
21498''If there are many?
21498''Is it possible,''he said,''to mistake either the spirit or the object of such a law?
21498''Is not this charming?
21498''Is that legend of grandfather Carnot very strong in this region?''
21498''It is pleasanter, do n''t you think?''
21498''May I ask,''I replied,''what can possibly have given you such an impression as this?''
21498''More so than his nephew the Comte de Paris?''
21498''Perhaps it was not a bad thing for us,''he said,''that the Mexicans shot their first Emperor-- but was it a good thing for them?''
21498''President?
21498''That is to say,''I asked,''the law officer of the department?
21498''That journal, Monsieur?''
21498''That weighs more than a napoleon,''she said;''and who is the young lady?
21498''The other generals are not very fond of him, you say?
21498''Then they want war with Germany?''
21498''Then you would prefer to organise a pension fund in your syndical chamber?
21498''Ulysses bewailing the departure of Calypso is charming, is it not?''
21498''Was M. Grévy, then, popular with them?''
21498''Were there many people of Figaro''s mind in Laon and in the Department?''
21498''What has come of all that fury and folly?''
21498''What is the feeling of the people here on this question of clerical teaching?''
21498''What is the matter with the people here?''
21498''What legend had Bonaparte when Barras put him at the head of the home army, and Pétiet sent him to Italy?
21498''What right had they to do this?''
21498''What sort of a newspaper is this?''
21498''What then happened?''
21498''What would you think?''
21498''Where did all this money come from?''
21498''Why do you feel sure of this?''
21498''You want to see your War Minister made president, then?''
21498''[ 2] St.-Omer, then, not having been besieged in 1710, why should a statue be set up in honour of an Audomaraise dame for delivering it?
21498''_ Dame_, Monsieur,''she said to me,''if M. Boulanger is not the best General in France, why did they make him Minister of War?
21498= Archer.=--_MASKS OR FACES?_ A Study in the Psychology of Acting.
21498A project of a law to relieve the co- operative idea from the crushing weight of the Imperial law of 1867?
21498And doubtless you know what efforts he made there at that time to bring about a subterranean understanding between himself and the Vatican?''
21498And how did he become a Deputy?
21498And if not in the case of Artois, why in the case of any other French province?
21498And on what scale do you do this sort of thing?''
21498And this studious Committee eventually evolved-- what?
21498And to what use?
21498And what other end but Nihilism can there be of your"neutral"obligatory schools and your atheistic laws?
21498And whom had the elective principle put into his place, under the pressure of irreconcilable personal rivalries, and of a threatened popular outbreak?
21498And why should anybody in or out of France celebrate them?
21498Are they not paganizing the country?
21498Are they not trying to make a"great Frenchman"now of Carnot?
21498As for the eventual results, what mattered these to them?
21498Ask men to give you their votes, and what authority will be left to you?
21498But has the modern and scientific way of looking at the relations of capital and labour, so far, been what may be called a great success?
21498But he did not show you the correspondence about it between the bishop and this charlatan of twopenny Atheism?
21498But how is a workman in such circumstances to call upon the laws?
21498But how is anybody to fix and celebrate the''centennial''of a set of notions called''the principles of 1789''?
21498But in what way?
21498But really is it not grotesque to see such cotton- velvet senators as this mayor of Amiens going about to decide questions of fidelity to public duty?
21498But was there no pretence of constitutional authority for the passage of this law which you so strongly denounce?''
21498But what are the reasonable demands of Labour?
21498But, the window being barred, what should restrain him from walking rationally out of the doorway?
21498Can anybody fail to see what this means?
21498Can there be any mistake as to the meaning of this?
21498Can you ask for a more flagrant illustration of the state to which this Republic is bringing our public services?
21498Could labour reasonably demand more than this of capital?
21498Could such a law possibly have been passed in your republic?''
21498Did he ever earn 250,000 francs in his life?
21498Did the French Government intend to invite the monarchies of Europe to celebrate the destruction by a mob of the Bastille on July 14, 1789?
21498Do we seem to be in the way of organizing a solid modern society on the principles of the"struggle for life"and of the"survival of the fittest"?
21498Do you imagine that Christianity, if it be your enemy, is an enemy as terrible as Nihilism?
21498Do you know Bapaume?
21498Do you see that high chimney across the road some way off among the trees?
21498Do you wonder I am a pessimist?''
21498Do you wonder that thoughtful men look with horror on the current which is carrying us in such a direction as that?
21498Does not that take us a long way on towards savage life?
21498Does not the best old inn in the comfortable town of Châlons- sur- Marne to this day bear the name of''La Haute Mère de Dieu''?
21498Does that mean that the Carnots are of this country?''
21498For upon what does human society rest in the last resort if not upon the two great pillars of the rule of St. Benedict-- Obedience and Labour?
21498Furthermore, what sort of a republic is it in which a family of princes can not live without tempting the whole population to make one of them king?
21498Had I not seen the votes, the credits given to the Ministers for entertaining?
21498Has he not shown more firmness than people expected of him when this Boulangist business began?''
21498Have they been intelligently adopted and loyally carried out in that distracted country to- day?
21498He took it upon himself to issue a decree-- instituting what?
21498How can France hope to find liberty within her own borders, or peace with honour abroad, under the domination of such men?
21498How can an independent Executive ever be restored in France excepting in the person of Philippe VII.?
21498How can you ask me to forget that?''
21498How is he to face the organised hostility of men of his own class?
21498How is he to meet the legal cost of defending his rights?
21498How is that to be brought about without endangering the success of the enterprises?
21498How many are they?
21498How many young women applied?
21498I had surely heard of that?''
21498I should be glad to know what''employer''ever devised a more shameless plan than this for reducing workmen to slavery, moral and financial?
21498If General Boulanger for their own sake could not be allowed to represent them, why not M. Cercueil?
21498If they succeed in unmaking their legend of Boulanger, where are they?
21498Is it France alone which is thus threatened?
21498Is it not avowedly because they think this will stop the recruiting for the ranks of the clergy?
21498Is it not because the French magistrates stand between them and the rights of the French clergy as French citizens?
21498Is it not clear that, in losing the notion of duty to his employer, the workman has necessarily lost the idea also of duty to his fellow- workmen?
21498Is it possible that in the actual condition of France and of Europe such a system as this should last?
21498Is it transparent, that?
21498Is it"clericalism"which is stirring up Labour against Capital?
21498Is it"clericalism"which is transforming your literature into ribaldry and your theatres into brothels?
21498Is it"clericalism"which manufactures dynamite and blows up houses?
21498Is it"clericalism"which preaches and supports"strikes"?
21498Is it"clericalism"which shuts up your schools?
21498Is it"clericalism"which transforms all the actions and relations of life into matters of contract and of calculation?
21498Is not that liberty?
21498Is not this plain?
21498Is not universal suffrage a natural and easy weapon of capital in any"struggle for life"with labour?
21498Is that liberty I ask you?''
21498Is there any respect for equal rights-- for the rule of the majority, for freedom of conscience in such proceedings?
21498Is this a confirmation, I wonder, of the theory entertained by Mr. Emerson and other philosophers, that woman is not a''clubbable''animal?
21498It is not the Pucelle who would have put them out, do you think?
21498Jefferson had sense enough to decline the invitation; but what gleam of sense, political or other, had the blundering tinkers who gave it?
21498LUCK, OR CUNNING, AS THE MAIN MEANS OF ORGANIC MODIFICATION?_ Cr.
21498Le Royes and Jules Ferry?
21498Monsieur does not know him?
21498Moreover, our farmers say,"Why vote at all, for the Mayors and the Prefect throw our votes out and cheat us?"
21498Must not all taxes be paid by the ultimate consumer?
21498My son when he gets his stripes is to marry-- she is a very nice girl, an only child, do you know?
21498No?
21498Of all which let us say with Mr. Carlyle,''What should Falsehood do but decease, being ripe, decompose itself, and return to the Father of it?''
21498Of course the Chamber eagerly adopted it?
21498Of how many towns of twenty thousand inhabitants could the same thing be truly said in England or the United States?
21498Or the Convocation of the States- General at Versailles on May 5, 1789?
21498So-- what does he care?
21498Strike out of the theory of representative institutions the right divine of the people to choose the wrong men, and what is left of it?
21498The Comte de Chassepot told you the story, did he not, of the Calvary in the cemetery of the Madeleine?
21498This being her character, what did she do?
21498To what will the''civic duties''of man bring France, and, with France, the civilization of Christendom, in 1892?
21498Was I not right?
21498Was it natural?
21498Was it not my duty to see no favouritism shown to one commune at the expense of another?''
21498Was the new republic hailed with enthusiasm?
21498What Sister could resist such an appeal?
21498What are the''principles of 1789''?
21498What did it mean?
21498What did that signify?
21498What do you say to that?''
21498What followed?
21498What good has their exile done to Eu?
21498What harm did the Sisters do there?
21498What has been the result?
21498What is the difference in principle between such a declaration as this and the attempt of the third Napoleon to establish an empire in Mexico by arms?
21498What is the ordinary proportion between the house- rent and the income of a respectable tradesman or mechanic in New York?
21498What is the result?
21498What is the sanction of the measures ordered by such syndicates excepting the fear in which every member goes of his fellow- members?
21498What is to become of the 730 unsuccessful competitors?
21498What more and what less than this is there in the history of Alfred the Great?
21498What really happened?
21498What was to be done?
21498What we want is a man; where are we to find him?''
21498What will become of them?
21498What would the Egyptians, who paid their tribute in glass to Rome, have thought of a serious order to pave the Via Sacra with blocks of purple glass?
21498What would then become of M. Doumer?
21498What, in such a case, would become of a French President?
21498Where are they to find the balloon?
21498Where else can the country bring up?
21498Who actually fills that most important post?
21498Who knows how long he will be President?
21498Why are they attacking the foundations of the magistracy?
21498Why do they wish to force the seminarists into the service?
21498Why not?
21498Why should he be brought into the business?''
21498Why should not Anzin set up a statue of Pierre Mathieu?
21498Why should''horrors''have been committed at Arras in 1789?
21498Why?
21498Why?
21498Why?
21498Why?
21498Will France be a nobler and stronger country when the priests who train the children of her peasantry into this spirit are driven out of the land?
21498With Brother Allain- Targé as Prefect, what could be easier?
21498With such men as this in the French Senate do you wonder the country laughs at senatorial courts of justice?
21498With these short leases what can be done for the land?"
21498Would I object to their dining with me-- there was no other good room?''
21498Would not England necessarily stand by France in such a proposal?
21498Would you trust him with your pocket- book?
21498Yes?
21498Yet what did he say in 1888?
21498You can find the bottom of it if you keep on long enough-- and then?
21498You have seen, of course, his_ Catéchisme du Patron_?''
21498You saw at Chauny the building of the local journal there,_ La Défense Nationale_''?
21498You tell me people in England and America have no idea of what is going on in France?
21498_ INDIA, WHAT CAN IT TEACH US_?
21498_ PROSPERITY OR PAUPERISM?_ Physical, Industrial, and Technical Training.
21498and on what pretext?
21498and will they spend all this money on dinners and punches?
21498broke in M. de Mortillet;''pray, what is God?''
21498but what of that?
21498he replied with a kind of''sniff'':''that leaf?
21498he replied,''I do n''t think they care much about Boulanger, and why should they dislike Carnot?
21498he replied,''in those days what did they know about good wine?''
21498he said scornfully;''why should it be?
21498he said,"it is money out of pocket, and for what?
21498he said;''how can a sensible man think of such a thing?
21498liberty for all?''
21498no value of his own?
21498what does that signify?
7961Ah, Henri, you have come for these ladies?
7961Ah, mesdames, what will you have? 7961 Ah, monsieur, how could you pass us by?"
7961Ah- h- h, ya- as-- lovely porch-- isn''t it?
7961Ah- h-- do you, really? 7961 Ah-- you found him too highly seasoned?"
7961And Molière? 7961 And do those gentlemen complain and put upon us the death of their horses?
7961And the blonde one-- what do you think of her,_ hein_?
7961And the blonde-- the handsome man at the creamery, he is the future--?
7961And the change-- why has it come?
7961And the widow,_ La Veuve_, shall she be dry or sweet?
7961And what do you call his first period, dear mademoiselle?
7961And what news, Victor-- is there any?
7961And why not, if they are young and can pay?
7961And why not? 7961 Another carriage-- and why?"
7961Augustine-- at our inn?
7961Been here a year-- but you, when did you arrive? 7961 Bored-- with all the tricks I was playing?
7961Bossuet, if I remember rightly, was with the Duke de La Rochefoucauld at the last, was he not?
7961But these people, who are they, and how did you--?
7961Could n''t have chosen better if we''d tried, could we? 7961 Dear Madame Le Mois-- and it goes well with you?
7961Did she not once write you a pretty little series of epigrams about not writing?
7961Did you ever read Zola''s''Quatre Saisons?''
7961Do you hear that, mesdames? 7961 Do you know our curé?
7961Do you think these ladies want to spend the night on the_ grève_? 7961 Economical?"
7961Fine--_beau-- ca?_And there was a deep scorn in Jacques''s voice.
7961For your horse? 7961 Good- day, good- day, my friend; how goes it?
7961Guide- books-- what''s the use of guide- books? 7961 Happy,_ mesdames?
7961Have you Poulette?
7961Have you been out on the mussel- beds?
7961Have you heard from Madame de La Fayette recently?
7961Henri, did you get in all the rags?
7961Henri-- you think we should go back; you think going on to Honfleur a mistake?
7961Here''s a church-- he said nothing about a church, did he?
7961How can any town have such a stench with all this river and water and verdure to sweeten it?
7961How did they abuse it?
7961How many times in the annals of crime is a man guilty-- really guilty? 7961 I wonder how posterity will treat them?
7961If Filon is condemned, what would happen to them?
7961Is he afraid?
7961Is it dangerous? 7961 Is she-- young?"
7961It goes well, Madame Jean? 7961 It is she who will not sleep--""Poor soul, are her children with her?"
7961It''s a beautiful scheme, and it''s as dramatic as the fifth act of a play; but what shall we do with her?
7961It''s fine,_ hein_, and beautiful,_ hein?_ It is the Duke''s!
7961It''s the curé dusting the altar-- shall I go in?
7961Madame de La Fayette truly mourned him-- don''t you think so? 7961 Of what crime is the defendant guilty-- he who is to be tried to- night?"
7961Oh, I loved him tenderly; how could one help it? 7961 Oh, you do them injustice, I think-- the guides do go in for a little more of the picturesque than that--""And how-- how do they do it?
7961Oh-- the De Troisacs? 7961 Pretty?"
7961Protestants? 7961 Shall I conduct you?"
7961Shall you be going to the trial to- night?
7961She could rule a kingdom-- hey, Paul?
7961Speaking of dying reminds me--cried suddenly Madame de Sévigné--"how are the duke''s hangings getting on?"
7961Splendid creature, is n''t she?
7961Surely, mesdames, you will not miss the_ fête_? 7961 That will be the next wedding-- what shall I devise for that?
7961The seats to be reserved in the tribune were for these ladies?
7961The very best patch- maker I have found lives in the rue St. Denis, at the sign of La Perle des Mouches; have you discovered him, dear friend?
7961The village?
7961Then, if you have ceased to believe in love, why did you go so religiously to Monsieur Caro''s lectures?
7961Was she so handsome then as they say she was-- at that time?
7961We came over by boat-- from Havre,we murmured meekly; then,"Is there a cake- shop near?"
7961We''ll go this afternoon-- Have you been to Honfleur? 7961 Well, and who asked you to talk?"
7961What will you have? 7961 When were you ever under sentence?"
7961Where are they going-- along the highroad?
7961Where did he say the old curé was?
7961Where is your daughter, and how is she?
7961Who is she? 7961 Why are they so unlike?"
7961Why did n''t you let me know you were here, yesterday,_ Hein_? 7961 Why do n''t you show them how it can be done?"
7961Why should they all be old?
7961Why should we not go,she asked,"across the next field, into that farm house yonder, and beg for a glass of milk?"
7961Will not_ ces dames_ give themselves the trouble of entering? 7961 Will you not come in, mesdames?
7961Will_ ces dames_ join me in a marauding expedition? 7961 Wo n''t she be hard to get?
7961Yes, ca n''t you see? 7961 You have children-- you have lost someone?"
7961You know Lower Brittany very well, do you not, dear friend?
7961You permit me, mesdames?
7961You were not bored,_ chère enfant_, driving Monsieur d''Agreste all that long distance?
7961You-- you esteemed him yourself very highly, did you not?
7961_ Ah, ma bonne_, how came that? 7961 _ Ah, mesdames-- que voulez- vous?_"was the old priest''s broken chant; he was bewailing the woes that had come to his order, to religion, to France.
7961_ Allons, mes filles-- doucement, là- bas-- et vos lits? 7961 _ Bonjour, mère--_""_ Bonjour, ma fille_--it goes well?"
7961_ Bonjour, mère_, how goes it?
7961_ C''est joli à voir_--it''s a pretty sight,_ hein_, my ladies? 7961 _ C''est très femme, çà-- hein, mademoiselle?_"And the cobbler cocked his head in critical pose, with a philosopher''s smile.
7961_ Ces dames_ wished rooms, they desired lodgings and board--_ces dames_ were alone?
7961_ Could_ you go this afternoon? 7961 _ E''ben, toi_--and thou wishest to proclaim to the world what a gymnast thou art-- swinging on thy perch?
7961_ E''ben-- et toi_--what do you want?
7961_ Est- il assez ridicule, lui?_ with his cap over his nose, and his knees knocking at everyone''s door? 7961 _ Est- il assez ridicule, lui?_ with his cap over his nose, and his knees knocking at everyone''s door?
7961_ Pas mal-- e''vous, M''sieur Renard?_"All right-- and the mortgage, how goes that?
7961_ Pas mal-- e''vous, M''sieur Renard?_"All right-- and the mortgage, how goes that?
7961_ Que voulez- vous, mesdames?_ Who could have told that the wind would play us such a trick?
7961_ Que voulez- vous, mesdames?_ Who could have told that the wind would play us such a trick?
7961_ Vous permettez?_asked the baroness, leaning over coquettishly to Monsieur d''Agreste''s cigar.
7961_ Were_ you there this morning?
7961Again I ask, why did he not disfigure this fair scene, and put out something of the beauty of the day?
7961Ah, madame, you are off already?
7961And Monsieur Paul?"
7961And by what magic also does a French village or city, even at its least animated period, convey to one the fact of its nationality?
7961And if of a hobby you can make a principle--""A principle?"
7961And madame herself was only mortal, for what woman lives but feels herself uplifted by the sense of having found favor in the eyes of her priest?
7961And now,"waving his hand toward us,"what do you propose to do with these ladies while you are painting?"
7961And the good citizen answers-- he has gone with the mayor to prop him up--''Which half will you take?
7961And the gout and the rheumatism, they have ceased to torment you?
7961And the picture, where is it?"
7961And the pilgrim, abashed, ashamed, would quickly make answer, if he were born of the right parents:"_ Chère_ madame, how was I to believe my eyes?
7961And tired, too,_ hein_, with the long walk?
7961And why?
7961And you, monsieur, you too leave us?
7961And you-- you''ve lost your tongue, it seems?"
7961As reminders of this old life, what is left?
7961Between the two, sea and river meet; is the river really trying to lose itself in the sea, or is it hopelessly attempting to swallow the sea?
7961But Monsieur d''Alençon, what did you think of him,_ hein_?
7961But here we are, at the top; it''s a fine outlook, is it not?"
7961But it is only a little danger, and danger makes the charm of travel, is it not so, my ladies?
7961But what can quench the fountain of French vivacity?
7961But what will you have?
7961But when are such things investigated?
7961Curse thy withered legs, and is it thus thou stumbleth?
7961Did you know she had had un_ nini_ this morning?
7961Did you see Jésu and the Magdalen?
7961Dieu-- why could n''t the republic have continued those glories--_ces gloires?
7961Do sane, reasonable mortals travel three thousand miles to read ancient history done up in modern binding, served up a la Murray, a la Baedeker?"
7961Do you really wish to rent the house?"
7961Do you remember how alarmed she would become when listening to music?"
7961Germain?"
7961Have you your little victoria and Poulette?"
7961He pleads for Filon, the culprit, to- night, does he not?"
7961He was desolated, but his inn was already full; it was crowded to repletion with people; surely these ladies knew it was the week of the races?
7961He went on in a quieter key:"But why am I always preaching and talking about death and eternity to two such ladies-- two such children?
7961He, the horse, the omnibus, and we, all waited for, what do you suppose?
7961Henri, did you bring any ice?"
7961Henri, just help the ladies, will you?"
7961Horace had need of rose- leaves to embalm his disappointments, for had he not cooled his passions by plunging into the bath of literature?
7961How can she be made to sit, a stiffened image of clay, after this life of freedom, this athletic struggle out here-- with these winds and tides?"
7961How could one eat seriously, with vulgar, gluttonous hunger, of a feast spread on the parapet of a terrace- wall?
7961How could we hope to make a Frenchman comprehend an instinctive impulse to turn our backs on the Trouville world?
7961How could you keep_ ces dames_ waiting like this?
7961How does it come about, that he is converted?
7961How goes it?
7961How goes the picture?
7961How is this?
7961How many I use?
7961How old, for instance, should you think that girl was, over there?"
7961I hear she has been fortunate in her choice of directors, has she not?
7961If the children did n''t walk, how could the procession be so fine?"
7961Is it Greek, is it Christian, this festival?
7961Is it because the French peasant seems now to be an inseparable adjunct of the Frenchman''s landscape?
7961Is it set up yet?
7961Is it that we have such a respect for French thrift, that a real forest seems a waste of timber?
7961Is it the mission of all flowing water to create an unrest in men''s minds?
7961It is a meekness, however, which does not hint of humiliation; for, after all, what humiliation can there be in being thoroughly understood?
7961It is idyllically lovely, is it not-- under such a sun?"
7961It was surely a stage set for a real comedy; some of these high- coiffed ladies, who knows?
7961It was to remind monsieur le president that the_ concierge_ was in a temper; would it not be better for him, the_ huissier_, to close the windows?
7961It''s a fair deal, is n''t it?
7961Last year I did the Jumièges sculptures; they fit in well, do they not?"
7961Loisette is waiting;_ la pauvre enfant_--perhaps suffering too-- how do I know?
7961Not quite so stiff,_ hein_--in such a bath of sunlight as this?
7961Now, however, he broke forth:"Shall we enter, my ladies?"
7961One must go as far as Paris-- to the theatre; one must hear a great play-- and even there, when does an actor make you weep as he did?
7961One of your models?"
7961Perhaps_ ces dames_, being strangers, did not know that Trouville was now beginning its real season-- its season of baths?
7961Pray pardon the impertinence of a personal question-- but we hear that American young ladies read Zola; is it true?"
7961Really, were you?"
7961Shall I conduct you to your rooms?"
7961She responded, with perfect good humor:"Why not?--why not try to discover beauties in nature?
7961So you are_ deux affreuses hérétiques_?
7961That even deformity has been so handled by the realists as to make us see beauty in ugliness?
7961That long scroll of tapestry, for truth and a naive perfection of sincerity-- where will you find it equalled or even approached?
7961The dove''s voice was trolling its sweetness, as she went on--"Eggs, monsieur?
7961The driver turned to look in at the window-- and to nod as he turned-- he felt so certain of our sympathy; had he not made sure of them at last?
7961The innkeeper was only a man; and since Adam, when has any member of that sex been known to say"No"to a pretty woman?
7961The mère''s insult was drowned in a storm of voices?
7961The priests?
7961The spectacle went to his heart; these gentlemen were again in a draught?
7961Their neighbors stopped to cry up to them:"_ Tendez vous, aujourd''hui?_"It is the universal question, heard everywhere.
7961There should be a trifle more shadow under the chin, what do you think?"
7961They also were looking at the moonlight, and one of them was singing to it:"_ Te souviens- tu, Marie, De notre enfance aux champs?_"_ Te souviens- tu?
7961They also were looking at the moonlight, and one of them was singing to it:"_ Te souviens- tu, Marie, De notre enfance aux champs?_"_ Te souviens- tu?
7961Think you, with such a task on hand, this city- ful of artists had time for frivolous idling?
7961This spring in the air was all very well, but how would it affect the sauces?
7961Was it even conceivable a father of a young family would lead an innocent lad into error, fraud, and theft?
7961Was it her fault if_ ces dames_ knew what comfort and cleanliness were?
7961Was the priest''s summary the last word of truth about modern France?
7961We had come far?
7961We were as wet as ducks, but what cared we?
7961Well, and how about obedience to our parents,_ hein_--how about that?"
7961Well, how are you?
7961Well, think you the subscription was for restorations,_ mesdames_?
7961Well,_ hein_, also?
7961Were the maids-- were Marianne or Lizette neglecting their work to flirt with the coachmen in the sheds yonder?
7961What a day,_ hein_?
7961What are juries for if they do n''t kill such rascals as he?"
7961What can I do with them?
7961What did the provinces want with Paris?
7961What do I hear?"
7961What do they teach you, anyway?
7961What do you think of old Dives and Monsieur Paul, and the rest of it?
7961What is his reputation worth, as a shrewd, sharp man of business, if a little thing like cheating stops him?
7961What is it to be a Protestant?
7961What is that?
7961What of_ his_''Misanthrope?''
7961What possible difference could it make to us whether we were landed at Trouville or at Villerville?
7961What shall I wear?"
7961What was it this world of sight- seers came up to the Mont for to see?
7961What was this order, this command the quick Percheron hearing had overheard?
7961What, pray, had we just now to do with fashion-- with the purring accents of boudoirs, with all the life we had run away from?
7961What?
7961What?
7961When at Rome was he not always sighing for his Sabine farm, and when at the farm always regretting Rome?
7961When one has an instep of ideal elevation, what is the use of being born a Frenchwoman, unless one knows how to make use of opportunity?
7961Where do you breakfast?"
7961Where was the_ concierge_?
7961Who and what was this neighbor, that he should have so curious and eccentric a taste in clothes?
7961Who cares whether Honfleur has been done to death by the tourist horde or not?
7961Who could stand by and see good candles blowing uselessly in the wind, and one''s money going along with the dripping?
7961Who does not know and love a French window, the higher up in the world of air the better?
7961Who really enjoys being left behind, to mope in a corner of the world others have abandoned?
7961Who would have looked to see a company of Norman provincials talking morality, and handling ethics with the skill of rhetoricians?
7961Why can not we all attain to an innkeeper''s altitude, as a point of view from which to look out upon the world?
7961Why does a man''s presence always seem to communicate such surprising animation to a woman-- to any woman?
7961Why is it that a forest is always a surprise in France?
7961Why is it that one is made to feel the companionable element, by instantaneous process, as it were, in a Frenchman and in his towns?
7961Why not emulate his calm, when people who have done with us turn their backs and stalk away?
7961Why not push on to Coutances, where the Fête was still celebrated with a mediaeval splendor?
7961Why not, like him, count the pennies as not all the payment received when a pleasure has come which can not be footed up in the bill?
7961Why should not a peasant, in blouse and sabots, with a grinning idiot face, have put the picture out?
7961Will you come?"
7961Will you have a less stormy and belligerent company to people the hill?
7961Will you have a''Marie Louise,''mademoiselle?"
7961Will you join me-- over there?"
7961Will you not rest a while after your long walk?"
7961With a charming outburst of enthusiasm she exclaimed aloud:"What a beauty, and youth, and tenderness this spring has, has it not?"
7961Would we wait for another cup?
7961Would you call it a town-- this one straggling street that begins in a King''s gateway and ends-- ah, that is the point, just where does it end?
7961Would_ ces dames_ give themselves the trouble of entering?
7961You are not Catholics?
7961You forgot?"
7961You hoped for a landau, and feathers and cushions, perhaps?
7961You remember what one of her commands was, do n''t you?"
7961You took the trouble to drive along the coast this fine day?
7961You were in luck-- in luck; why was n''t I there?"
7961You were with her a great deal, were you not, after his death?"
7961_ En voilà une_--did you remark the pretty one, with the book, seated, all in white?
7961_ Mais, que voulez- vous?
7961_ Tiens_--who was he talking to now?
7961and been painted until one''s art- stomach turns?
7961are there deep holes?"
7961c''est gai par ici, n''est- ce pas?_ One has the sun all to one''s self, and air!
7961if they preferred"_ des chambres garnies avec goût, vraiment artistiques_"--to rooms fit only for peasants?
7961mesdames, you did n''t expect this,_ hein_?
7961pay two_ sous octroi_ on a bottle of one''s own wine, that one had had in one''s cellar for half a lifetime?
7961qui les fait-- les bons saints du paradis, peut- être?_"And Marianne and Lizette would slink away to the waiting beds.
7961these gentlemen proposed to walk, in the sun, through clouds of dust, when here was a carriage, with ladies for companions, at their command?
7961with the bad season, the rains, the banks failing, the-- but you, madame, are well?
7961would they permit their trunks to be sent for?
7961would they see the house or the garden first?
7961you are Protestant?
