8090 | Were you born in Uttoxeter? |
8090 | And is it possible, after all, that there may be a flaw in the title- deeds? |
8090 | And where are the graves of another daughter and a son, who have a better right in the family row than Thomas Nash, his grandson- in- law? |
8090 | As for the remainder,--the hundred pale abortions to be counted against one rosy- cheeked boy,--what shall we say or do? |

8429 | And what can be your connection with all the error and trouble, and involuntary wrong, through which I have wandered since our last meeting? 8429 And what is this?" |
8429 | And who then was he? |
8429 | Are you a poacher, or what? |
8429 | Can you tell me the name of the family in which this secret was kept? |
8429 | Do you know any such tradition as you have hinted at? |
8429 | Do you recognize nothing there? 8429 Do you remember our conversation on that evening when I first had the unlooked- for pleasure of receiving you as a guest into my house? |
8429 | Do you speak,asked Middleton, from a sudden impulse,"with any secret knowledge affecting a matter now in my mind?" |
8429 | Have you been all along in England? 8429 How come you here? |
8429 | Indeed, my young friend,said the Master,"if that be the case, I should like to[ speak?] |
8429 | Is there nothing here that you ought to recognize?--nothing that you kept the memory of, long ago? |
8429 | Is your friend ill? |
8429 | It is the old manor- house of Smithell''s,replied Hammond,"one of those old wood and timber[ plaster?] |
8429 | Shall I ever understand it? 8429 Smithell''s?" |
8429 | To what do you allude? |
8429 | Was it Wentworth? |
8429 | We are friends, then? |
8429 | What business have you here? |
8429 | What could induce you to undertake it? |
8429 | What have you to do here? |
8429 | What object do you suppose me to have? |
8429 | What? 8429 Whence comes this expression?" |
8429 | Where? |
8429 | Whither have you led me now? |
8429 | Who are you? |
8429 | Why do not you renew your quest? |
8429 | And how is it that you know how to awake these sympathies, that have slept perhaps too long?" |
8429 | And is it possible that you even then held the clue which I was seeking?" |
8429 | And why has not Alice returned?--and what is your connection with her?" |
8429 | And you have the key?" |
8429 | And, as he gazed at it, he half thought himself an actor in a fairy portal[ tale? |
8429 | And[ is] this, then, he thought to himself, the establishment of which some rumor had been preserved? |
8429 | Are you even now ready to confide wholly in me?" |
8429 | But are you at liberty to tell me the nature of the incidents to which you allude?" |
8429 | But now what do you mean to do?" |
8429 | But was not the risk too great? |
8429 | But whence,--whence came that malevolence which your father''s conduct has so unmistakably shown? |
8429 | But where have you learned these ideas? |
8429 | By and by, the internal influence[ evidence?] |
8429 | Do you know how to find that secret chamber?" |
8429 | Do you mean ever to explain it to me? |
8429 | Eldredge?" |
8429 | Have you ever heard any such instances as you speak of?" |
8429 | Have you forgotten your description? |
8429 | In fact, Middleton, recovering himself, apologized to Mr. Hammond[ Eldredge? |
8429 | Is it not a singular story?" |
8429 | Might I inquire what those legends are?" |
8429 | Might not some fatal treasure like this, in a moral view, be brought to light by the secret into which he had so strangely been drawn? |
8429 | Now where, let me ask you, did you ever hear this strange name, which you then spoke, and which I have since spoken?" |
8429 | Pray, are you staying hereabouts?" |
8429 | The beer of Pemberton Manor has been reckoned good these hundred years; will you taste it?" |
8429 | The more serious question, what shall be the nature of this tragic trouble, and how can it be brought about? |
8429 | What else can I do?" |
8429 | What[ is] his relation to you?" |
8429 | Why did he do so? |
8429 | Why do you draw my attention so strongly to it?" |
8429 | Will you explain what you would suggest by this badinage?" |
8429 | Would it be possible for a stranger to get an opportunity to inspect it?" |
8429 | said Middleton,--"a cabinet? |
8429 | said he;"and the nature of the secret?" |
513 | Am I here, or there? |
513 | And are those the red roofs of the Shaker village? |
513 | And did n''t He help thee, friend? |
513 | And must the world wait longer yet? |
513 | And what may be the value of the whole,continued the stranger,"with all the buildings and improvements, pretty nearly, in round numbers?" |
513 | And what would thee advise Josiah and me to do? |
513 | And why not? 513 And why?" |
513 | Are not those thoughts divine? |
513 | But thy wife, friend? |
513 | Can I be of service to you in any way? |
513 | Can you describe the man who told you this? |
513 | Can you give a traveller a night''s lodging? |
513 | Dear father, do not you see how it is? 513 Do you now perceive a corresponding difference,"inquired I,"between the passages which you wrote so coldly, and those fervid flashes of the mind?" |
513 | Does she live near us? |
513 | Does she not look sweetly? |
513 | Father, what is that? |
513 | From the country, I presume, sir? |
513 | Good evening, stranger,said the lime- burner;"whence come you, so late in the day?" |
513 | Have you any objection to telling me the nature of your business with him? |
513 | If the question is a fair one,proceeded Bartram,"where might it be?" |
513 | Is it far to the Shaker village? |
513 | Is that white building the Shaker meeting- house? |
513 | May not a man have several voices, Robin, as well as two complexions? |
513 | O majestic friend,he murmured, addressing the Great Stone Face,"is not this man worthy to resemble thee?" |
513 | Pray, what little girl may that be? |
513 | The man that went in search of the Unpardonable Sin? |
513 | Violet my darling, what is this child''s name? |
513 | Was the fellow''s heart made of marble? |
513 | Well, my good lad, why are you sitting here? |
513 | What became of the pretty girl, like Miriam? 513 What have we here?" |
513 | What is strange, dear mother? |
513 | What is the Unpardonable Sin? |
513 | What may be the meaning of this uproar? |
513 | What more have I to seek? 513 What other children could have made anything so like a little girl''s figure out of snow at the first trial? |
513 | What prophecy do you mean, dear mother? |
513 | Wherefore are you sad? |
513 | Who are you, my strangely gifted guest? |
513 | Why, who are you? |
513 | Why, you uncivil scoundrel,cried the fierce doctor,"is that the way you respond to the kindness of your best friends? |
513 | Will they live by literature, and yet risk nothing for its sake? 513 Will you be kind enough to show me the way to the ferry?" |
513 | Will you recognize your kinsman, if he passes in this crowd? |
513 | You have, then, adopted a new subject of inquiry? |
513 | You saw him? 513 Young man,"said he, abruptly,"what quantity of land do the Shakers own here, in Canterbury?" |
513 | *****"Well, Robin, are you dreaming?" |
513 | Ah, but whom or what did she see besides? |
513 | Am I to bear all this, when yonder fire will insure me from the whole? |
513 | And do we want anything more, Miriam?" |
513 | And was there, indeed, such a resemblance as the crowd had testified? |
513 | And what do you think she saw there? |
513 | And what remains? |
513 | And what was the Great Stone Face? |
513 | But where was the heart? |
513 | Did not we, Peony?" |
513 | Did she send any word to her old father, or say when she was coming back?" |
513 | Did you never hear of Ethan Brand?" |
513 | Do you happen to know such a man, sir?" |
513 | Had nature, in that deep hour, become a worshipper in the house which man had builded? |
513 | Have you felt nothing of the same influence?" |
513 | How can I rejoice in my strength and delicacy of feeling, when they have but made great sorrows out of little ones? |
513 | I''ve been searching, half the night, for one Major Molineux, now, sir, is there really such a person in these parts, or am I dreaming?" |
513 | Is it not a nice''ittle child?" |
513 | Is not he the very picture of your Old Man of the Mountain?" |
513 | Is not she a nice one? |
513 | Is she not beau- ti- ful? |
513 | May I hope for the honor of your commands in respect to supper?" |
513 | May he not have spent an hour of his immortality in playing with those dear little souls? |
513 | Now, what under the sun can they do with this poor varse- maker?" |
513 | Of course, you must have heard of my failure?" |
513 | Or was that heavenly light the visible sanctity of the place,--visible because no earthly and impure feet were within the walls? |
513 | Sha''n''t you love her dearly, Peony?" |
513 | Shall we step round the corner by that darkish house and take our share of the fun?" |
513 | Shall we tell our stories, here by this pleasant spring, for our own pastime, and the benefit of these misguided young lovers?" |
513 | Well, and so you have found the Unpardonable Sin?" |
513 | What did the benign lips seem to say? |
513 | What for did you bring her in?" |
513 | What had he seen? |
513 | What if his kinsman should glide through yonder gate, and nod and smile to him in dimly passing by? |
513 | What if the object of his search, which had been so often and so strangely thwarted, were all the time mouldering in his shroud? |
513 | What is the voice of song, when the world lacks the ear of taste? |
513 | What say you?" |
513 | What would the sisters say, if thee were to sit so close to me?" |
513 | Whereabouts is the dwelling of my kinsman, Major Molineux?" |
513 | Who is this little girl?" |
513 | Why, then, pure seeker of the good and true, shouldst thou hope to find me, in yonder image of the divine?" |
513 | Will you show me the way to the ferry?" |
513 | Wo n''t it be nice?" |
513 | Would you have her freeze to death?" |
513 | must I wait here all night for my kinsman, Major Molineux?" |
513 | sternly replied Ethan Brand,"what need have I of the Devil? |
513 | then you are Ethan Brand himself?" |
513 | what more to achieve?" |
513 | who is it?" |
513 | why hast thou warred with Nature, turning all her higher and more perfect gifts to the ruin of me, their possessor? |
513 | will you guide me to the house of my kinsman, Major Molineux?" |
39716 | And must the world wait longer yet? |
39716 | And what is this? |
39716 | And why not? 39716 And why?" |
39716 | And will you,said he to the carver,"permit this masterpiece to become the figure- head of a vessel? |
39716 | And you did dream of it? |
39716 | Are not those thoughts divine? |
39716 | Are we grown old again, so soon? |
39716 | Are you mad, old man? |
39716 | Aylmer, are you in earnest? |
39716 | But did Ponce de Leon ever find it? |
39716 | But why do we speak of dying? 39716 Can you give a traveller a night''s lodging?" |
39716 | Danger? 39716 Do you see it?--do you see it?" |
39716 | Father, what is that? |
39716 | Georgiana,said he,"has it never occurred to you that the mark upon your cheek might be removed?" |
39716 | Good evening, stranger,said the lime- burner;"whence come you, so late in the day?" |
39716 | How dare you stay the march of King James''s Governor? |
39716 | How otherwise should this carver feel himself entitled to transcend all rules, and make me ashamed of quoting them? |
39716 | If the question is a fair one,proceeded Bartram,"where might it be?" |
39716 | Is it with this lotion that you intend to bathe my cheek? |
39716 | Is the man thinking what he will do when he is a widower? |
39716 | My dear old friends,repeated Dr. Heidegger,"may I reckon on your aid in performing an exceedingly curious experiment?" |
39716 | O majestic friend,he murmured, addressing the Great Stone Face,"is not this man worthy to resemble thee?" |
39716 | Poor? 39716 See you not, he is some old round- headed dignitary, who hath lain asleep these thirty years, and knows nothing of the change of times? |
39716 | Shall I tell the secrets of yours? 39716 The man that went in search of the Unpardonable Sin?" |
39716 | The same? |
39716 | Then why did you take me from my mother''s side? 39716 Then you are going towards Vermont?" |
39716 | Was the fellow''s heart made of marble? |
39716 | What does this old fellow here? |
39716 | What has come over you? 39716 What is here? |
39716 | What is it, mother? |
39716 | What is the Unpardonable Sin? |
39716 | What more have I to seek? 39716 What prophecy do you mean, dear mother?" |
39716 | Whence did he come? 39716 Where am I? |
39716 | Wherefore are you sad? |
39716 | Who are you, my strangely gifted guest? |
39716 | Who do you mean? 39716 Who is this gray patriarch?" |
39716 | Who is this venerable brother? |
39716 | Why did you hesitate to tell me this? |
39716 | Why do you come hither? 39716 Why do you keep such a terrific drug?" |
39716 | Why, who are you? |
39716 | Why, you uncivil scoundrel,cried the fierce doctor,"is that the way you respond to the kindness of your best friends? |
39716 | Would you throw the blight of that fatal birthmark over my labors? 39716 And was there, indeed, such a resemblance as the crowd had testified? 39716 And what speak ye of James? 39716 And what was the Great Stone Face? 39716 And which of these designs do you prefer? 39716 And who was the Gray Champion? 39716 But I trust you do not mean to desecrate this exquisite creature with paint, like those staring kings and admirals yonder? |
39716 | But where was the Gray Champion? |
39716 | But where was the heart? |
39716 | But, how is he to attain his ends? |
39716 | Can it be that nobody caught sight of him? |
39716 | Can it have been my work? |
39716 | Can not you remove this little, little mark, which I cover with the tips of two small fingers? |
39716 | Did she send any word to her old father, or say when she was coming back?" |
39716 | Did you never hear of Ethan Brand?" |
39716 | Had the changes of a lifetime been crowded into so brief a space, and were they now four aged people, sitting with their old friend, Dr. Heidegger? |
39716 | Have you no trust in your husband?" |
39716 | How is it that, possessing the idea which you have now uttered, you should produce only such works as these?" |
39716 | Is not he the very picture of your Old Man of the Mountain?" |
39716 | Is not the kindred of a common fate a closer tie than that of birth? |
39716 | Is this beyond your power, for the sake of your own peace, and to save your poor wife from madness?" |
39716 | Not a soul would ask,''Who was he? |
39716 | Now what should an old woman wish for, when she can go but a step or two before she comes to her grave? |
39716 | Now, would you deem it possible that this rose of half a century could ever bloom again?" |
39716 | Or, if you prefer a female figure, what say you to Britannia with the trident?" |
39716 | Shall I put these feelings into words?" |
39716 | Was it an illusion? |
39716 | Was it delusion? |
39716 | Well, and so you have found the Unpardonable Sin?" |
39716 | What did the benign lips seem to say? |
39716 | What had he seen? |
39716 | What inspired hand is beckoning this wood to arise and live? |
39716 | What is his purpose? |
39716 | What sort of a man was Wakefield? |
39716 | Whither did the wanderer go?'' |
39716 | Who can this old man be?" |
39716 | Who has done this?" |
39716 | Who has not heard their name? |
39716 | Who knows but I may take a glimpse at myself, and see whether all''s right?" |
39716 | Whose was the agony of that death moment? |
39716 | Whose work is this?" |
39716 | Why, then, pure seeker of the good and true, shouldst thou hope to find me, in yonder image of the divine?" |
39716 | Will she die? |
39716 | Would you go to the sole home that is left you? |
39716 | said Colonel Killigrew, who believed not a word of the doctor''s story;"and what may be the effect of this fluid on the human frame?" |
39716 | sternly replied Ethan Brand,"what need have I of the Devil? |
39716 | then you are Ethan Brand himself?" |
39716 | what more to achieve?" |
39716 | whither are you going? |
39716 | who is it?" |
7085 | A young lady? |
7085 | And does it concern my father? |
7085 | And have they heard nothing of him since? |
7085 | And how happens this, friend Hugh? 7085 And how is the old tree to decide the question?" |
7085 | And was this indeed so? |
7085 | And what if I come to settle down among these quiet hills where I was born? |
7085 | And what if I refuse to put myself under your orders? |
7085 | And what is to be the proof? |
7085 | And what is your concern with her? 7085 And where is he now?" |
7085 | And wherefore was it dangerous? |
7085 | And why at that time more than at all times? |
7085 | And you are certain that, if they passed at all, it must have been before that hour? |
7085 | And, if I should, how am I like to be bettered by it? |
7085 | And, when her father comes to demand his daughter of me, what answer shall I make? |
7085 | Are you so soon weary of this quiet retreat? |
7085 | But who would know me now? |
7085 | But why were they abroad on such a night? |
7085 | But will not the young lady try her skill? |
7085 | By what authority have you absented yourself from the walls of Alma Mater during term- time? |
7085 | Can it be misery? 7085 Did he obtain any information from you as to the course?" |
7085 | Do you bring news of him? |
7085 | Do you meet with much success, sir? |
7085 | Do you repent so soon? |
7085 | Do you still refuse my request, when its object is but your own good, and that of one who should be most dear to you? |
7085 | Do you take my best parlor for the cabin of the Black Andrew, where a pistol- shot was a nightly pastime? |
7085 | Dr. Melmoth, am I so fortunate as to meet you? |
7085 | Ellen, dearest child,at length said the doctor,"what is the meaning of this?" |
7085 | Forget her? 7085 Had we not better proceed with our breakfast? |
7085 | Has he then lost his senses? |
7085 | Have I not just informed you that she has gone, fled, eloped? 7085 Have you forgotten your father and his misfortunes? |
7085 | Have you the means of compelling obedience? 7085 Have you, then, forgotten your old friend?" |
7085 | How could you forbear to enter? |
7085 | How shall we break the intelligence to her? 7085 I am to understand, then, that you refuse my offer?" |
7085 | I have brought my mother to her grave,--and what can a son do more? 7085 In the Devil''s name, woman, of what are you speaking?" |
7085 | Is he ill? 7085 Is there a door in all the Province that is barred or bolted, night or day? |
7085 | Lonely, is it, sweet Ellen? |
7085 | Misguided youth, did your reverence say? |
7085 | Miss Langton, is it the evening breeze alone that sends you homeward? |
7085 | Miss Langton,he inquired,"what do you here at such an hour, and with such a companion?" |
7085 | My husband stands gazing on me,she said again;"but my son,--where is he? |
7085 | My old comrade, will you not give up this scheme? |
7085 | Oh, do you not know him? 7085 Or has your anxiety for your father induced you to set forth alone in quest of the afflicted old man?" |
7085 | Perhaps, sir,said Edward, with much gravity,"you might yourself be prevailed upon to accept the professorship of poetry?" |
7085 | She had a son, then? |
7085 | Tears, were there? 7085 The gray? |
7085 | The world is wide enough for both of us; and why should you wish me out of it? |
7085 | Then this is your living self, Hugh Crombie? |
7085 | Was it wise, then, to tempt it thus, when, if it yield, the result must be your own misery? |
7085 | Was she not out of her right mind, Dolly? |
7085 | Well, Dolly, what news this morning? |
7085 | Well, master; and what is your business with me? |
7085 | What do you mean? 7085 What if I, too, am weary of the life we have led,--or afraid, perhaps, that it will come to too speedy an end? |
7085 | What is your pleasure with me, sir? |
7085 | What know you of ladies? 7085 What know you respecting my purpose?" |
7085 | What right have you to speak of her innocence? 7085 What say you? |
7085 | What shall it be?--a bumper of wine with an egg? 7085 What would you with me?" |
7085 | When may we look for your return? |
7085 | Where is my father? 7085 Where-- where are they?" |
7085 | Who is this angel, mine host, that has taken up her abode in the Hand and Bottle? |
7085 | Why do you interfere, sir? |
7085 | Why is it singular? |
7085 | Why, Hugh, what has come over you since we last met? 7085 Will Professor Crombie favor us with a specimen of his productions?" |
7085 | Will he return to me? 7085 Will you not attend your mother''s funeral?" |
7085 | Will you take it now? |
7085 | Woman, whither do you go? |
7085 | Would it not be well to return? |
7085 | Would you have me tell it to the bare walls? |
7085 | You have kept watch, then, since midnight? |
7085 | You have not told her the bad news, I trust? |
7085 | Your father,he began,--"do you not love him? |
7085 | And now, Hugh, how is it that you have become possessed of this comfortable dwelling and of these pleasant fields?" |
7085 | Any commands in my line?" |
7085 | But now he felt the first thrilling of one of the many ties, that, so long as we breathe the common air,( and who shall say how much longer?) |
7085 | But now to be serious,--and there has been something serious in your eye all this while,--what is your purpose in coming hither? |
7085 | But who is this, who rides on so slowly before us?" |
7085 | But, if I choose the former, what then?" |
7085 | By what claim can either man or woman henceforth expect mercy from me? |
7085 | Can I trust you?" |
7085 | Can it be?" |
7085 | Did you see her, Edward?" |
7085 | Do you mean Ellen Langton, daughter of the old merchant Langton, whom you have some cause to remember?" |
7085 | Do you mean to take the law with you? |
7085 | Does a girl call it ruin to be made an honest wedded wife? |
7085 | Does your power extend to men? |
7085 | Ellen, I trust, is well?" |
7085 | Ellen, shall we alight?" |
7085 | Else why do I stand before you a living man?" |
7085 | For what purpose?" |
7085 | Has he, then, the start of me?" |
7085 | Have we not done twenty worse deeds of a morning, and laughed over them at night?" |
7085 | He continued aloud,"Well, what is your will with me? |
7085 | How is my child? |
7085 | Is he in danger?" |
7085 | Is it not so, Ellen? |
7085 | Langton?" |
7085 | May I beg,"he continued, nothing the superior condition of his rival''s horse,"that you will not attempt to accommodate your pace to mine?" |
7085 | May I hope that, in consideration of my mental distraction and the causes of it, you will forget what has passed?" |
7085 | May there not be happiness in the life of a fish?" |
7085 | Melmoth?" |
7085 | My dame advised strong waters;''But, Dame Crombie,''says I,''would ye corrupt their youth?'' |
7085 | My mother-- what could I hear of her but misery? |
7085 | Or do you rule only over simple girls? |
7085 | Or will you make me a partner in your trade, since you know my qualifications? |
7085 | Ruin, do you say? |
7085 | Shall I have your good word, Hugh, to set me up in an honest way of life? |
7085 | Shall I see him before I die?" |
7085 | Shall we try the adventure now, Ellen?" |
7085 | The motto on the title- page of the original was from Southey:"Wilt thou go on with me?" |
7085 | Theirs was a long life of calm and quiet bliss; and what matters it, that, except in these pages, they have left no name behind them? |
7085 | Think you her father will rest easy in the ocean, Hugh Crombie, when I am his son- in- law?" |
7085 | What is the meaning of this?" |
7085 | What reason have you to suppose that the persons for whom you watch are not already beyond the village?" |
7085 | What should be my next measure after arriving at the town?" |
7085 | What think you of the plan?" |
7085 | Where is our son? |
7085 | Whither is she gone?" |
7085 | Will he not comfort me now?" |
7085 | Will it not be happiness to form the tie that shall connect you to the world? |
7085 | Would you do aught for his welfare?" |
7085 | and when shall I meet him?" |
7085 | has she gone?" |
7085 | he rejoined;"am I not with you? |
7085 | murmured the doctor, in a perfectly inaudible voice,"Well-- and when I reach the town, what then?" |
7085 | or a glass of smooth, old, oily brandy, such as Dame Crombie and I keep for our own drinking? |
7085 | or will you right your wrongs, if you have any, with your own right hand?" |
7085 | what do I see?" |
7085 | what is this?" |
7085 | who ride yonder?" |
976 | And how dare you make this disturbance, while I am sacrificing a black bull to my father Neptune? |
976 | And how soon shall I be strong enough? |
976 | And is he a live giant, or a brazen image? |
976 | And what do you want in my dominions? |
976 | And will you carry me back when I have seen it? |
976 | Are they as good as the first? |
976 | Are you awake, Prince Theseus? |
976 | Are you sure, beautiful Medea,asked Jason,"quite sure, that the unguent in the gold box will prove a remedy against those terrible burns?" |
976 | But can I do nothing to help them? |
976 | But how shall I ever find him,asked Theseus,"if the labyrinth so bewilders me as you say it will?" |
976 | But is not this enough? 976 Did there really come any words out of the hole?" |
976 | Did you see that flash of light? |
976 | Do not you see you are lost, without me as your good angel? 976 Do you not know that this island is enchanted? |
976 | Do you see it? |
976 | Do you see? 976 Do you, indeed, my dear child?" |
976 | Does it presume to be green, when I have bidden it be barren, until my daughter shall be restored to my arms? |
976 | Does the earth disobey me? |
976 | Does your majesty see his confusion? |
976 | Foolish woman,answered Ceres,"did you not promise to intrust this poor infant entirely to me? |
976 | Have they undergone a similar change, through the arts of this wicked Circe? |
976 | Have you anything to tell me, little bird? |
976 | Have you come so far to seek it,exclaimed Medea,"and do you not recognize the meed of all your toils and perils, when it glitters before your eyes? |
976 | Have you forgotten what guards it? |
976 | Have you seen a beautiful maiden, dressed like a king''s daughter, and mounted on a snow- white bull, that gallops as swiftly as the wind? |
976 | How will you prevent me,asked Hercules,"from going whither I please?" |
976 | Is it a wholesome wine? |
976 | Is it much farther? |
976 | Is it not a very pleasant stream? |
976 | Must we wait long for harvest time? |
976 | My child,said she,"did you taste any food while you were in King Pluto''s palace?" |
976 | My pretty bird,said Eurylochus-- for he was a wary person, and let no token of harm escape his notice--"my pretty bird, who sent you hither? |
976 | O brindled cow,cried he, in a tone of despair,"do you never mean to stop?" |
976 | O my dear son,cried King Aegeus,"why should you expose yourself to this horrible fate? |
976 | O my sweet violets, shall I never see you again? |
976 | O, daughter of the Talking Oak,cried he,"how shall we set to work to get our vessel into the water?" |
976 | O, where is my dear child? |
976 | On what errand? |
976 | Pray, nurse,the queen kept saying,"how is it that you make the child thrive so?" |
976 | Sacred oracle of Delphi,said he,"whither shall I go next in quest of my dear sister Europa?" |
976 | See if you can lift this rock on which we are sitting? |
976 | That little bird, which met me at the edge of the cliff,exclaimed Ulysses;"was he a human being once?" |
976 | Well, but, dear mother,asked the boy,"why can not I go to this famous city of Athens, and tell King Aegeus that I am his son?" |
976 | What does this mean? |
976 | What hast thou to do with an affair like this? 976 What in the world, my little fellow,"ejaculated Hercules,"may you be?" |
976 | What is it? |
976 | What is the matter, Jason? |
976 | What is there to gratify her heart? 976 What is this wonder?" |
976 | What kind of a monster may that be? 976 What mean you, little bird?" |
976 | What says King Aetes, my royal and upright father? |
976 | What shall I do,said he,"in order to win the Golden Fleece?" |
976 | What shall I do? |
976 | What''s all this? |
976 | What''s your name? 976 What, then, shall I do?" |
976 | What,said Hecate,"the young man that always sits in the sunshine? |
976 | Whence come you, strangers? |
976 | Where are your two and twenty comrades? |
976 | Where is Proserpina? |
976 | Where is my child? 976 Where was the sound, and which way did it seem to go?" |
976 | Whither are you going in such a hurry, wise Ulysses? |
976 | Whither are you going, Jason? |
976 | Who are you, I say? |
976 | Who are you? |
976 | Who are you? |
976 | Why do you come alone? |
976 | Why should you be so frightened, my pretty child? |
976 | Will he give you the Golden Fleece, without any further risk or trouble? |
976 | Will not you stay a moment,asked Phoebus,"and hear me turn the pretty and touching story of Proserpina into extemporary verses?" |
976 | Will the dog bite me? |
976 | Will you trust the child entirely to me? |
976 | Young man,asked he, with his stern voice,"are you not appalled at the certainty of being devoured by this terrible Minotaur?" |
976 | And do n''t you see how careful we are to let the surf wave break over us every moment or two, so as to keep ourselves comfortably moist? |
976 | And what do you think the snowy bull did next? |
976 | And what is the message which you bring?" |
976 | And whence could this bull have come? |
976 | And, indeed, why not? |
976 | Are not these gems, which I have ordered to be dug for you, and which are richer than any in my crown-- are they not prettier than a violet?" |
976 | Are you an enchantress?" |
976 | Are you not terribly hungry? |
976 | But how can you help me to do the things of which you speak? |
976 | But to test how much you have profited under so excellent a teacher, will you allow me to ask you a single question?" |
976 | But, a little farther on, what should she behold? |
976 | But, by the by, have you added any more legends to the series, since the publication of the''Wonder- Book''?" |
976 | Can you guess who I am? |
976 | Can you tell me what has become of my dear child Proserpina?" |
976 | Could you help smiling, Prince Jason, to see the self- conceit of that last fellow, just as he tumbled down?" |
976 | Did the roots extend down into some enchanted cavern? |
976 | Do n''t you see I''m sleepy? |
976 | Do you imagine that earthly children are to become immortal without being tempered to it in the fiercest heat of the fire? |
976 | Do you see that tall gateway before us? |
976 | Do you see this splendid crown upon my head? |
976 | Dost thou not tremble, wicked king, to turn thine eyes inward on thine own heart? |
976 | How are you, my good fellow?" |
976 | How was the blessed sunshine to be thrown into them? |
976 | How were they to be purified? |
976 | I wonder what the blacksmith charged him for a set of iron shoes? |
976 | Instead of his ordinary milk diet, did he not eat up two of our comrades for his supper, and a couple more for breakfast, and two at his supper again? |
976 | Is it because I too am a king, that you desire so earnestly to speak with me? |
976 | Is it not possible, at the risk of one''s life, to slay him?" |
976 | Is there nothing which I can get you to eat?" |
976 | May I not run down to the shore, and ask some of the sea nymphs to come up out of the waves and play with me?" |
976 | Now, who do you imagine these two voyagers turned out to be? |
976 | Or is he afraid of wetting his fine golden- stringed sandals? |
976 | Pray what may I call your name? |
976 | Pray, how big may your soul be?" |
976 | Pray, what would you advise me to do with him?" |
976 | Proserpina, did you call her name?" |
976 | Shall I never hear them again? |
976 | Shall we not rather compel him to leave his bones here on our soil, by the side of our slain brother''s bones? |
976 | Tell me, for pity''s sake, have you seen my poor child Proserpina pass by the mouth of your cavern?" |
976 | Tell me, you naughty sea nymphs, have you enticed her under the sea?" |
976 | The gentle and innocent creature( for who could possibly doubt that he was so?) |
976 | This showed some intelligence in the oak; else how should it have known that any such person existed? |
976 | Was Theseus afraid? |
976 | Were we to drown the world with them, could the world blame us? |
976 | What are all the splendors you speak of without affection? |
976 | What are kings made for, save to succor the feeble and distressed? |
976 | What can I do with him?" |
976 | What can we do to drive them away?" |
976 | What do you think of this, my brave Jason?" |
976 | What does he mean to do? |
976 | What harm can the lady of the palace and her maidens do to mariners and warriors like us?" |
976 | What will the king say to the one- sandaled man?" |
976 | Whence has he come? |
976 | Where are you all? |
976 | Why did not I think of him before? |
976 | Why do you come hither? |
976 | Will you go with me you go with me, Phoebus, to demand my daughter of this wicked Pluto?" |
976 | Will you not like to ride a little way with me, in my beautiful chariot?" |
976 | and where did you receive your education?" |
976 | do you smell the feast? |
976 | do you think me so?" |
976 | he exclaimed:"how came you by it?" |
976 | if the fathers and mothers were so small, what must the children and babies have been? |
976 | nor taste those nice little savory dishes which my dearest wife knew how to serve up?" |
976 | thought Cadmus;"or have I been dreaming all this while?" |
976 | was there ever such a gentle, sweet, pretty, and amiable creature as this bull, and ever such a nice playmate for a little girl? |
976 | you have been gathering flowers? |
7372 | A married woman is no sister; nothing but a married woman till she becomes a mother; and then what shall I have to do with you? |
7372 | Ah, is it so? 7372 Ah, yes; and you are not frightened at me? |
7372 | Am I not your sister still, Septimius? |
7372 | And I may say, Is it you? 7372 And after that another play- day?" |
7372 | And as to its medical efficacy? |
7372 | And have I convinced you of all this? |
7372 | And how did you do that? |
7372 | And shall I see you again? |
7372 | And what do you want of him yourself, Septimius? |
7372 | And what has been the history of the thing after his death? |
7372 | And what is it? |
7372 | And what is that? |
7372 | And what shall that be? |
7372 | And what will you do, Septimius? |
7372 | And what would the people do who wish to fill our places? 7372 And you took it from him?" |
7372 | And you want to know how I make it? 7372 Are they coming, then, Aunt Keziah?" |
7372 | Are we friends? |
7372 | Are you alone here? 7372 Are you going?" |
7372 | Are you in search of flowers? |
7372 | But who knows? |
7372 | Can not I know it? |
7372 | Can not you allow me that? |
7372 | Canst thou not conceive that mortal brain and heart might at length be content to sleep? |
7372 | Dear auntie, what can I do for you? |
7372 | Did you like her? |
7372 | Do I ever frighten you then, Rose? |
7372 | Do I? |
7372 | Do you call it hatred? |
7372 | Do you find fault with Providence, Septimius? |
7372 | Do you know the way, then? |
7372 | Do you know this plant? |
7372 | Do you know what you ask? |
7372 | Do you really think the redcoats are coming? 7372 Do you remember any more of this?" |
7372 | Do you see anything remarkable there? |
7372 | Do you tell me,said he,"that the plant has been found indigenous in this country, and in your part of it? |
7372 | Do you think God''s work is not to be done in the field as well as in the pulpit? 7372 Do you think it well to snatch this little lull that is allowed you in the wild striving of war to try to make a peaceful home? |
7372 | Do you think so? |
7372 | Do you, then, dwell hereabout? |
7372 | Do your speculations take a scientific turn? |
7372 | Dying, Aunt Keziah? |
7372 | Flower, do you call it? |
7372 | Forever? |
7372 | Forever? |
7372 | Good God, Sibyl, is this possible? |
7372 | Have I not aided you, thought with you, encouraged you, heard all your wild ravings when you dared to tell no one else? 7372 Have you pursued this object so long,"said Sibyl,"to have these fears respecting it now? |
7372 | Have you spoken with her? |
7372 | Have you, sir? |
7372 | Here, in secret? |
7372 | How can you say so, Robert? |
7372 | How can you tell that, Rose? |
7372 | How is that? |
7372 | How was it,said he,"that I can have been so untrue to my convictions? |
7372 | I? 7372 Indeed, Aunt Keziah, is that so?" |
7372 | Is it you? |
7372 | Is that the drink of immortality? |
7372 | Is there anything more that I can do for you? |
7372 | Is this still so? |
7372 | It is young, is it not? 7372 It looks like bloodroot, do n''t it?" |
7372 | Let me run for the doctor,--for the neighbors? 7372 Mr. Septimius Felton, I suppose?" |
7372 | No old furniture, desks, trunks, chests, cabinets? |
7372 | Not at present, I thank you, Aunt Keziah,said Septimius, gravely;"but will you tell me what the ingredients are, and how you make it?" |
7372 | Now,said Septimius, laughing again,"you shall have your choice, to be beaten on the spot, or suffer another kind of punishment,--which?" |
7372 | O Aunt Keziah,said he, with a longing earnestness,"are you sure that you can not remember that one ingredient?" |
7372 | Of whom do you speak? |
7372 | Oh dear, what shall we do? |
7372 | Poison, do you call it? |
7372 | Seppy, you good- for- nothing, are you going to see me lying here, dying, without trying to do anything for me? |
7372 | Septimius, how long do you wish to live? |
7372 | Septimius, my young friend,said he,"are you yet ready to be a preacher of the truth?" |
7372 | Septimius, who is this you have brought here? |
7372 | Shall I send for the minister, Aunt Keziah? |
7372 | Shall she do so? |
7372 | Sibyl, what have you done? |
7372 | Surely,said the maiden, with a look of surprise;"where else should I dwell? |
7372 | Then the poor thing is crazy? |
7372 | Then why not come with me? |
7372 | Then why were you here with your gun amongst the shrubbery? 7372 Think what?" |
7372 | Well, Septimius,said the minister, kindly,"have you yet come to any conclusion about the subject of which we have been talking?" |
7372 | Well; but how did it come there? 7372 What can I do for you?" |
7372 | What can I do,asked Septimius, gloomily,"what business take up, when the whole land lies waste and idle, except for this war?" |
7372 | What could have been its motive? 7372 What flower do you speak of?" |
7372 | What has come to Robert Hagburn? |
7372 | What is the strange flower? |
7372 | What use can one make of abortive thoughts? |
7372 | When has Robert Hagburn been heard from? |
7372 | Where did you get it, Robert? |
7372 | Where is Robert Hagburn? |
7372 | Where? 7372 Why do you talk such nonsense, Sibyl?" |
7372 | Why hast thou spilt the drink? |
7372 | Why should it be so cold? |
7372 | Will you come with me to my residence at the foot of the hill, Doctor Portsoaken? |
7372 | Will you not be weary in the time that we shall spend together? |
7372 | Wo n''t you taste it, Seppy, my dear? |
7372 | Yes,said Robert Hagburn;"but in hot blood, and for a good cause, who cares for death? |
7372 | You are the uncle of Sibyl Dacy? |
7372 | You meant, then, to take up with my hint of shooting at me from behind a hedge? 7372 Ah, is it surely so? 7372 Ah, what shall we do? 7372 Am I certainly not dreaming? 7372 Am I sure of it? 7372 And by what other strange chance had the document come into the hand of him who alone was fit to receive it? 7372 And could it be that poor Septimius was typified by the fascinated fly, doomed to be entangled by the web? 7372 And how has been my learned young friend Dr. Septimius,--for so he should be called,--and how have flourished his studies of late? 7372 And how is the old aunt yonder, with her infernal nostrum, the bitterness and nauseousness of which my poor stomach has not yet forgotten? |
7372 | And how was it with Septimius? |
7372 | And in what locality?" |
7372 | And what matters a little tyranny in so short a life? |
7372 | And who knows where it will end?" |
7372 | And why, moreover, Septimius, did you listen so earnestly for any sound in Aunt Keziah''s chamber? |
7372 | And you want to know what it is made of? |
7372 | And you, Septimius? |
7372 | Are you hurt?" |
7372 | But first, child, tell me honestly, do you love this drink of mine? |
7372 | But how did you come by it?" |
7372 | But look, Septimius,--could it be worse than this? |
7372 | But on what terms? |
7372 | But what brings you to Boston?" |
7372 | But why was he so pale? |
7372 | But you are not going to the village, too, and leave us all alone?" |
7372 | But, Septimius, what is this little hillock here so close to our path? |
7372 | Can not you interest yourself in the state of this country, in this coming strife, the voice of which now sounds so hoarsely and so near us? |
7372 | Can you read these old characters?" |
7372 | Could he give them all up,--the sweet sister; the friend of his childhood; the grave instructor of his youth; the homely, life- known faces? |
7372 | Could this be called life, which he was leading now? |
7372 | Could you fetch me a drop of water? |
7372 | Did I not take it very demurely, and answer thee in the same style? |
7372 | Do n''t you think so?" |
7372 | Do we exhaust it in our little life? |
7372 | Do you feel no interest in such a prospect?" |
7372 | Do you not feel it so? |
7372 | Do you remember this broken miniature? |
7372 | Does my face tell such stories?" |
7372 | Does not thine?" |
7372 | Does this look like it?" |
7372 | Had he not time for waiting? |
7372 | Had you not better take shelter in the village?" |
7372 | Have you heaped it up here for a seat? |
7372 | Have you no documents, I say, no muniment deed?" |
7372 | How can I know my brethren, unless I do that once? |
7372 | How else, in the infinite chances of human affairs, could the document have found its way to its destined possessor? |
7372 | If this could not be, what should he do? |
7372 | Is it not a lovely sight?" |
7372 | Is it not well, therefore, that, sharing none of its pleasures and happiness, I should be free of its fatalities its brevity? |
7372 | It had a queer taste, methought; or is it that my mouth is getting out of taste? |
7372 | Might he not seek some one own friend-- one single heart-- before he took the final step? |
7372 | Must I sweep you out with the broomstick? |
7372 | No-- you will not? |
7372 | No? |
7372 | Shall I go for Rose? |
7372 | Shall I make you a fresh pot of it? |
7372 | Shall we talk of botany, the virtues of herbs?" |
7372 | Shall you be as cheerful among dangers afterwards, when one sword may cut down two happinesses?" |
7372 | Shall you like to be summoned from it soon? |
7372 | So Septimius looked up out of his thoughts, and said proudly:"Why should I die? |
7372 | So thou wilt not drink with me?" |
7372 | Some have pretended to say that this appearance of blood was but dew; but can dew redden a cambric handkerchief? |
7372 | Then why so ghastly pale? |
7372 | Then why was he so pale? |
7372 | This spider, now, is not he a lovely object? |
7372 | Was Rose Garfield a deception too, with her daily beauty, and daily cheerfulness, and daily worth? |
7372 | Was it merely dried leaves, the refuse of the forest, or something else?" |
7372 | Was it not better worth his while to take this English position here so strangely offered him? |
7372 | Was it you-- were they your features-- which that young soldier kissed as he lay dying?" |
7372 | Well, no matter; whom could he have loved? |
7372 | Well, what next?" |
7372 | What can I do for you? |
7372 | What could it do for him there,--this beautiful grace and elegance of feature,--where there was no form, nothing tangible nor visible? |
7372 | What could you have put into it, Seppy, darling? |
7372 | What icy hand had written, it, so that the heart was chilled out of the reader? |
7372 | What if I should say this moment that I will not die, not till ages hence, not till the world is exhausted? |
7372 | What if this shiver should last us through eternity?" |
7372 | What matters a form of government for such ephemeral creatures?" |
7372 | What news do you bring? |
7372 | What next?" |
7372 | What next?" |
7372 | What shall we do? |
7372 | What sort of manure had been put into that hillock? |
7372 | What to do, if this be so?" |
7372 | What was the harm of that? |
7372 | What was the matter with this document, that the young man''s youth perished out of him as he read? |
7372 | What''s that? |
7372 | Whence came that dark and dull despair that weighed upon me? |
7372 | Whence did it come? |
7372 | Where will you bury me?" |
7372 | Who should know, if not you?" |
7372 | Why could not Septimius love too? |
7372 | Why did I let the mocking mood which I was conscious of in that brutal, brandy- burnt sceptic have such an influence on me? |
7372 | Why did you creep on tiptoe, once, twice, three times, up to the old woman''s chamber, and put your ear to the keyhole, and listen breathlessly? |
7372 | Why does not the Black Man have the meeting at his own kitchen hearth? |
7372 | Will it crimson the fingertips when you touch it? |
7372 | Will not that be tiresome?" |
7372 | Will you drink?" |
7372 | Will you not tell me what it is?" |
7372 | Would he venture onward into such a wintry futurity, symbolized, perhaps, by the coldness of the crystal goblet? |
7372 | Would you like to hear it, Rose?" |
7372 | You''ll die when your time comes; wo n''t you, Seppy, my darling?" |
7372 | are you quite sure you remember how to make that precious drink?" |
7372 | asked Septimius, with pale lips:"or did your fell purpose change?" |
7372 | had she indeed?" |
7372 | how can I expect anybody but myself to make this precious drink as it should be?" |
7372 | kept up your hopes; suggested; helped you with my legendary lore to useful hints; helped you, also, in other ways, which you do not suspect? |
7372 | or call a neighbor in? |
7372 | or the doctor?" |
7372 | said she;"if my drink could not save me, what would a doctor''s foolish pills and powders do? |
7372 | what are you doing here?" |
7372 | what do you tell me? |
7372 | whispered Rose,"why should we shoot these men, or they us? |
7372 | would you wish to see the features that were destroyed when that bullet passed? |
7372 | you have seen that, have you?" |
512 | A private entrance into Dr. Rappaccini''s garden? |
512 | Ah, and is that the rub? |
512 | Ah, forsooth, and is it your worship indeed? |
512 | Ah,exclaimed Owen, who had drank freely,"are you alive again, child of the sun and playmate of the summer breeze, after your dismal winter''s nap? |
512 | Alive? 512 Alive? |
512 | All pure and wholesome? 512 Am I awake? |
512 | And because you have been a father to me, should I therefore leave you to perish and to lie unburied in the wilderness? |
512 | And did you return in time to save him? |
512 | And is it lawful, now, to inquire what the secret is? |
512 | And must I believe all that I have seen with my own eyes? |
512 | And what are they? |
512 | And what else? |
512 | And what if he should hear me? |
512 | And what is this? |
512 | And what one is that? |
512 | And what says Miss Annie to that doctrine? 512 And what was that?" |
512 | And will you,said he to the carver,"permit this masterpiece to become the figure- head of a vessel? |
512 | And yet, worshipful professor, is it not a noble spirit? 512 And you did dream of it?" |
512 | And your daughter,--how shall I dare to meet her eye? |
512 | Are there such idle rumors? |
512 | Are you in the garden? |
512 | Aylmer, are you in earnest? |
512 | Beatrice,asked he, abruptly,"whence came this shrub?" |
512 | Beyond a doubt the directors have engaged that famous old champion to be chief conductor on the railroad? |
512 | But how is your own breast? |
512 | But is it alive? |
512 | But what is this? |
512 | But what then? 512 But what was his origin?" |
512 | But where is Faith? |
512 | But why conceal those imperfections? |
512 | But, my good Mr. Take- it- easy,cried I,"why take up your residence here, of all places in the world?" |
512 | By the by,said the professor, looking uneasily about him,"what singular fragrance is this in your apartment? |
512 | Can this be so? |
512 | Danger? 512 Did the girl scorn my precious one?" |
512 | Did yonder sniffling hypocrite thrust my darling from his door? 512 Did you not start,"said I,"for the Celestial City?" |
512 | Did you take counsel with him this morning when you should have been saying your prayers? 512 Do my eyes deceive me?" |
512 | Do n''t you go over to the Celestial City? |
512 | Do n''t you know Apollyon, Christian''s old enemy, with whom he fought so fierce a battle in the Valley of Humiliation? 512 Do people say that I am skilled in my father''s science of plants? |
512 | Do you know me, George Herkimer? |
512 | Do you remember, my dear Aylmer,said she, with a feeble attempt at a smile,"have you any recollection of a dream last night about this odious hand?" |
512 | Do you see it?--do you see it? |
512 | Do you see the star at his breast? |
512 | Does not your worship see that I am in haste? |
512 | Does this garden belong to the house? |
512 | Dost thou pretend ignorance? |
512 | Georgiana,said he,"has it never occurred to you that the mark upon your cheek might be removed?" |
512 | Giovanni,said Beatrice, calmly, for her grief was beyond passion,"why dost thou join thyself with me thus in those terrible words? |
512 | Has he ever seen your face before? |
512 | Has my friend Giovanni any disease of body or heart, that he is so inquisitive about physicians? |
512 | Hast thou grown so poisonous that this deadly insect perishes by thy breath? |
512 | Have you forgotten me? 512 How is this, Reuben? |
512 | How otherwise should this carver feel himself entitled to transcend all rules, and make me ashamed of quoting them? |
512 | I wonder whether it would condescend to alight on such a great clumsy finger as mine? 512 Is it alive? |
512 | Is it alive? |
512 | Is it possible that you view that affair in an objectionable light? 512 Is it with this lotion that you intend to bathe my cheek?" |
512 | Is that,inquired I,"the very door in the hill- side which the shepherds assured Christian was a by- way to hell?" |
512 | Mrs. Bullfrog, upon your honor,demanded I, as if my life hung upon her words,"is there no mistake about those five thousand dollars?" |
512 | My father, Reuben? |
512 | Now, my love, are not you a most unreasonable little man? |
512 | Ought a woman to disclose her frailties earlier than the wedding day? 512 Poor? |
512 | Sayest thou so? |
512 | Sir,inquired he, with a sad, yet mild and kindly voice,"do you call yourself a pilgrim?" |
512 | The perpetual motion? 512 The same?" |
512 | Then Goody Cloyse knows her old friend? |
512 | Then why did you take me from my mother''s side? 512 Thou canst speak, darling, canst thou?" |
512 | Thou,--dost thou pray? |
512 | Was ever so original and exquisite a compliment? |
512 | Was it a hard doom? |
512 | Well, Owen,inquired the old watchmaker, as his first greeting,"how comes on the beautiful? |
512 | Well, but, Owen, what are you about? |
512 | Were your situation mine, would you desert me while life remained? |
512 | What God doth the wizard pray to? |
512 | What bosom serpent has the sharpest sting? |
512 | What can Owen Warland be about? |
512 | What can the fellow be about? 512 What did he say in that sharp voice?" |
512 | What do you say? |
512 | What has befallen me? |
512 | What has come over you? 512 What has gone wrong?" |
512 | What have we here? 512 What is here? |
512 | What is this being? 512 What mean you, Beatrice?" |
512 | What mean you, foolish girl? 512 What''s this, my dear?" |
512 | Whence came this strange calamity? |
512 | Where am I? 512 Where am I? |
512 | Where did you get that idea, Annie? |
512 | Where is the police? |
512 | Wherefore ask who created it, so it be beautiful? |
512 | Who do you mean? 512 Why did you hesitate to tell me this?" |
512 | Why do you come hither? 512 Why do you keep such a terrific drug?" |
512 | Why is this lunatic allowed to go at large? |
512 | Why lurkest thou in the corner, lazy one? |
512 | Why need you ask? |
512 | Will you make a fool of me? |
512 | Would I not? 512 Would you throw the blight of that fatal birthmark over my labors? |
512 | You dug a grave for my poor father in the wilderness, Reuben? |
512 | A living creature? |
512 | Alive? |
512 | And is it so?" |
512 | And the Signora Beatrice,--what part does she act in this mystery?" |
512 | And this man, with such a perception of harm in what his own hands caused to grow,--was he the Adam? |
512 | And what effect could be anticipated from such unsubstantial stuff?" |
512 | And which of these designs do you prefer? |
512 | And why should my poor puppet be the only one to know himself and perish for it?" |
512 | Are there many men capable of so spiritual a love of science?" |
512 | Art thou of the brotherhood of the empty skull, and demandest of me what thou shalt say? |
512 | Beautiful shall I call her, or inexpressibly terrible?" |
512 | Bless my wits, what is the matter with me?" |
512 | But I trust you do not mean to desecrate this exquisite creature with paint, like those staring kings and admirals yonder?" |
512 | But by what conveyance, think you, can his lordship have voyaged or travelled hither? |
512 | But come, will you mend this poor thimble of mine?" |
512 | But how is this? |
512 | But such must have been Reuben''s own fate had he tarried another sunset; and who shall impute blame to him if he shrink from so useless a sacrifice? |
512 | But what is this cloud of pale- cheeked, slender girls, who disturb the ear with the multiplicity of their short, dry coughs? |
512 | But what then? |
512 | But, were I to go on with thee, how should I meet the eye of that good old man, our minister, at Salem village? |
512 | Can a breast, where it has dwelt so long, be purified?" |
512 | Can it have been my work? |
512 | Can not you remove this little, little mark, which I cover with the tips of two small fingers? |
512 | Could it be Beatrice''s breath which thus embalmed her words with a strange richness, as if by steeping them in her heart? |
512 | Did he caper for joy, when you remembered the profligacy of his only son? |
512 | Did he sting, when you thought of your brother''s health, wealth, and good repute? |
512 | Did it contain water, reddened by the lurid light? |
512 | Did not I make thee? |
512 | Did you ever hear of a blacksmith being such a fool as Owen Warland yonder?" |
512 | Dim and faded did you call him? |
512 | Do you find this old mansion gloomy? |
512 | Does it gnaw you?" |
512 | Does none answer to the call? |
512 | Greatheart?" |
512 | Had Goodman Brown fallen asleep in the forest and only dreamed a wild dream of a witch- meeting? |
512 | Had I taken that very fairy to be the wife of my bosom? |
512 | Had a sudden weariness overcome the youthful hunter? |
512 | Have I my senses?" |
512 | Have you created it at last?" |
512 | Have you no trust in your husband?" |
512 | Have you slain the deer and fallen asleep over him?" |
512 | Have you succeeded in creating the beautiful?" |
512 | How comes on the beautiful? |
512 | How is it that, possessing the idea which you have now uttered, you should produce only such works as these?" |
512 | I would fain speak; but being without wits, what can I say?" |
512 | If they should be cruel to one another, who was there to be kind to them? |
512 | Is it alive?" |
512 | Is it an objection that I have triumphantly defended myself against slander and vindicated my purity in a court of justice? |
512 | Is it so unusual a misfortune, so rare a triumph? |
512 | Is it the perfume of your gloves? |
512 | Is not that the truth?" |
512 | Is not this a marvellous tale?" |
512 | Is this beyond your power, for the sake of your own peace, and to save your poor wife from madness?" |
512 | Must I tell her that he travelled three days''march with me from the field of battle and that then I left him to perish in the wilderness? |
512 | No reptile there? |
512 | Oh, was there not, from the first, more poison in thy nature than in mine?" |
512 | Oh, what is death after such words as thine? |
512 | Or do you complain because your wife has shown the proper spirit of a woman, and punished the villain who trifled with her affections?" |
512 | Or, if you prefer a female figure, what say you to Britannia with the trident?" |
512 | Ought not, then, the desert of humanity around them to press this insulated pair closer together? |
512 | Roderick, amidst the throng of the street, laid his hand on this man''s chest, and looking full into his forbidding face,"How is the snake to- day?" |
512 | Shall I confess the truth? |
512 | Shall I exorcise him?" |
512 | Shall we bid the trumpet sound again? |
512 | Shall we not quaff it together, and thus be purified from evil?" |
512 | Should you meet one of these and guide them hither, who can tell but that I may sit by my own fireside again?" |
512 | Tell me, Roderick Elliston, is there any remedy for this loathsome evil?" |
512 | Then, would he add another verse to any strain that he had left unfinished here? |
512 | Think you that my last moments will be eased by the thought that I leave you to die a more lingering death? |
512 | Was it his mother? |
512 | Was it merely the tooth of physical disease? |
512 | Was it sorrow? |
512 | Was this garden, then, the Eden of the present world? |
512 | Well, what did you expect? |
512 | Were it not better to lie down and die by your side than to return safe and say this to Dorcas?" |
512 | What class is next to take its place in the procession of mortal life? |
512 | What could it be that gnawed him? |
512 | What could it be that gnawed the breast of Roderick Elliston? |
512 | What could the witch expect? |
512 | What has befallen you? |
512 | What have I done?" |
512 | What if I should let him take his chance among the other men of straw and empty fellows who go bustling about the world?" |
512 | What inspired hand is beckoning this wood to arise and live? |
512 | What say you, daughter Annie?" |
512 | What shall be their principle of union? |
512 | What were the recollections now breaking upon him? |
512 | What would you?" |
512 | What, my sweet, pretty wife, dost thou doubt me already, and we but three months married?" |
512 | What, then, will be your fate? |
512 | Where did I leave him?" |
512 | Where shall I find a name vile enough to call thee by? |
512 | Whither am I wandering? |
512 | Whither, then, could these holy men be journeying so deep into the heathen wilderness? |
512 | Who could the phantom be? |
512 | Who else could assume the guidance of a procession that comprehends all humanity? |
512 | Who has done this?" |
512 | Whom shall we choose for his companion? |
512 | Whose guilt had blasted it? |
512 | Whose skeleton is out of its grave now, I wonder?" |
512 | Whose work is this?" |
512 | Why do I find you thus?" |
512 | Why tarriest thou? |
512 | Why tarriest thou? |
512 | Would his mother''s voice arouse him? |
512 | Wouldst thou, then, have preferred the condition of a weak woman, exposed to all evil and capable of none?" |
512 | and shall his son pass me like a stranger in these old streets of Padua? |
512 | did I grow up side by side with your father? |
512 | do n''t you know that my daughter Annie is engaged to Robert Danforth? |
512 | exclaimed the brother hater--"what do you mean?" |
512 | or was it blood? |
512 | or, perchance, a liquid flame? |
512 | replied her husband"But why do we speak of dying? |
512 | thought the old witch,"what step is that? |
2081 | A very great favor, do you say? 2081 A very great one?" |
2081 | Again, what is the matter? |
2081 | And at this very instant you feel her to be your dearest friend? |
2081 | And by which of my qualities,inquired he,"can you suppose me fitted for this awful ministry?" |
2081 | And how have you prevailed with such a woman to work in this squalid element? |
2081 | And how is it with you? |
2081 | And of what nature? |
2081 | And on the whole, which of the two characters do you like best? |
2081 | And so you think she''s drowned herself? |
2081 | And what is that? |
2081 | And what is your answer now? |
2081 | And what was your purpose? |
2081 | And why not? |
2081 | And you will not join me? |
2081 | Angry with you, child? 2081 Are you angry with me?" |
2081 | Are you deserting us? |
2081 | As for the present moment, if we could look into the hearts where we wish to be most valued, what should you expect to see? 2081 But how can there possibly be any interest or connecting link between him and her?" |
2081 | But how can you be my life- long friend, except you strive with me towards the great object of my life? |
2081 | But how if she were sixty, and a fright? |
2081 | But she loves you now, of course? |
2081 | But,said I,"whence can you, having no means of your own, derive the enormous capital which is essential to this experiment? |
2081 | Can I do you any service? |
2081 | Can not we soften it a little? |
2081 | Can you tell me,I inquired,"what families reside in any of those houses opposite?" |
2081 | Despise her? 2081 Did I call you hither from among the masqueraders yonder? |
2081 | Did you bring Priscilla with you? |
2081 | Did you come away of your own free will? |
2081 | Do not you need this? |
2081 | Do you despise woman? |
2081 | Do you know Hollingsworth personally? |
2081 | Do you love her? |
2081 | Does Hollingsworth know that you are here? |
2081 | Does she love her? |
2081 | Does that fact lessen my availability for your purpose? |
2081 | Dost thou hesitate,said the Veiled Lady,"to pledge thyself to me, by meeting these lips of mine, while the veil yet hides my face? |
2081 | Has my pale little girl a bloom? |
2081 | Has there been any call for Priscilla? |
2081 | Have not you learnt as much from your chamber window? 2081 Have we our various parts assigned?" |
2081 | Have you any objection,said I,"to telling me who made those little purses?" |
2081 | Have you anything to ask of this lady? |
2081 | Have you bewitched her? |
2081 | Have you given up Blithedale forever? |
2081 | Have you learned anything of his history? |
2081 | Have you none to care for you? |
2081 | Have you nothing dismal to remember? |
2081 | Have you nothing to do in life,asked Hollingsworth,"that you fancy yourself so ready to leave it?" |
2081 | Have you seen Zenobia,said I,"since you parted from her at Eliot''s pulpit?" |
2081 | How can you decide upon her so easily? |
2081 | How could I possibly make myself resemble this lady merely by holding her letter in my hand? |
2081 | How do you find yourself, my love? |
2081 | How is it possible to doubt that, Priscilla? |
2081 | I wonder, sir,said he,"whether you know a lady whom they call Zenobia?" |
2081 | I would first inquire whether you have supposed me to be wealthy? |
2081 | Is Zenobia to take a part in your enterprise? |
2081 | Is it all true, that Mr. Coverdale and Zenobia have been saying? |
2081 | Is it irksome to you to hear your own verses sung? |
2081 | Is it wise to go, and is it your choice to go? |
2081 | Is it you, Coverdale? |
2081 | Is it you, Miles Coverdale? |
2081 | Is not she worth a verse or two? |
2081 | Is not that a little more than you are entitled to inquire? |
2081 | Is she crazy? 2081 Is this true?" |
2081 | It is genuine tragedy, is it not? |
2081 | Like a gentlewoman and her maid- servant, I fancy? |
2081 | Mr. Coverdale,said he softly,"can I speak with you a moment?" |
2081 | Mr. Moodie,said I,"do you remember selling me one of those very pretty little silk purses, of which you seem to have a monopoly in the market? |
2081 | Mr. Moodie,said I,"shall we lunch together? |
2081 | No daughter?--no kind- hearted neighbor?--no means of procuring the attendance which you need? 2081 Priscilla,"I inquired, lowering my voice,"when do you go back to Blithedale?" |
2081 | Priscilla,I inquired,"did you ever see Miss Margaret Fuller?" |
2081 | Priscilla,said I, in the hearing of them all,"do you know whither you are going?" |
2081 | Shall I find you here, on my return? |
2081 | True,--what is it? |
2081 | Up to this moment,I inquired,"how many criminals have you reformed?" |
2081 | Well, boys,cried he peevishly,"what is to pay now?" |
2081 | Well, folks, what are ye about here? |
2081 | What I desire to know of you is,--and you can tell me in one word,--whether I am to look for your cooperation in this great scheme of good? 2081 What can be the reason? |
2081 | What do you think of her? |
2081 | What do you want with me? |
2081 | What does he say? |
2081 | What does the fact mean? 2081 What does the girl mean?" |
2081 | What have I done? 2081 What have they to do with the proposal which I make you? |
2081 | What is the matter now? |
2081 | What is the matter? |
2081 | What is the message? |
2081 | What is the use or sense of being so very gay? |
2081 | What is there further to be said between us? |
2081 | What is to become of Priscilla? |
2081 | What matter of ridicule do you find in this, Miles Coverdale? |
2081 | What now? |
2081 | What on earth should the young woman do that for? |
2081 | What shall it be, Zenobia? |
2081 | What wouldst thou with me? |
2081 | What''s in the wind now, Miles? |
2081 | What, then, is your own view of it? |
2081 | Whither? |
2081 | Who are you,I exclaimed indignantly,"that dare to speak thus of the dead? |
2081 | Who is that laughing? |
2081 | Who is this? |
2081 | Who? 2081 Why are you so secret in your operations?" |
2081 | Why did not the Frenchman make punch of it at once? |
2081 | Why do you ask me that question? |
2081 | Why do you bring in the names of these women? |
2081 | Why do you bring up his name at every turn? |
2081 | Why do you call me a dream? 2081 Why do you trouble him with needless questions, Coverdale?" |
2081 | Why not fling the girl off,said Westervelt,"and let her go?" |
2081 | Why should you think so? |
2081 | Why so? |
2081 | Will you give me that purse, Priscilla,said I,"as a parting keepsake?" |
2081 | Will you give me the letter, Priscilla? |
2081 | With what kind of a being am I linked? |
2081 | You require charity, perhaps? 2081 Zenobia, whither are you going?" |
2081 | A moral? |
2081 | Above all, was it better to have a fever and die blaspheming, as I was like to do? |
2081 | And am I just to her, in surrendering all to this beautiful Zenobia? |
2081 | And did she fling herself along with it? |
2081 | And if so, did the Veiled Lady seek or did she shun him? |
2081 | And is she happy?" |
2081 | And on what conditions was it to be had? |
2081 | And so, my good friend, you have come to see her? |
2081 | And what more do you want of it? |
2081 | And what of that? |
2081 | And what right has he to be the driver? |
2081 | And what subjects had been discussed here? |
2081 | And why, being now free, should I take this thraldom on me once again? |
2081 | And why, when there is enough else to do, should we waste our strength in dragging home the ponderous load of his philanthropic absurdities? |
2081 | And would you like to drink a glass of wine?" |
2081 | And, in either case, will it be possible ever to redeem them?" |
2081 | Are there any figs ripe, do you think? |
2081 | Are they not warm with the beacon- fire which we have kindled for humanity?" |
2081 | Are you a man? |
2081 | But are we his oxen? |
2081 | But have you a literary turn, Mr. Moodie? |
2081 | But how is it with you? |
2081 | But is there not something very characteristic of his nation in Fourier''s manner of putting forth his views? |
2081 | But was it a vision that I had witnessed in the wood? |
2081 | But what can this business be, Mr. Moodie? |
2081 | But what was rank to the colonists of Blithedale?" |
2081 | But what, after all, have I to tell? |
2081 | But what, in good sooth, had become of the Veiled Lady? |
2081 | But, indeed, what could mortal do for her? |
2081 | By the bye, has Hollingsworth ever seen her in this dress?" |
2081 | Can I be of any service to you before my departure?" |
2081 | Can it be you, sir, who thus summoned me?" |
2081 | Can it be, Zenobia, that you ever really numbered yourself with our little band of earnest, thoughtful, philanthropic laborers?" |
2081 | Can you bear with me, if such should prove to be the case?" |
2081 | Can you imagine what is the matter with her?" |
2081 | Could it be that a subtile presentiment had informed her of the young man''s presence? |
2081 | Could you possibly afford me the means of speaking with her?" |
2081 | Could you?" |
2081 | Coverdale!--is it not so? |
2081 | Coverdale?" |
2081 | Coverdale?" |
2081 | Did she fling it into the scheme with the uncalculating generosity that characterizes a woman when it is her impulse to be generous at all? |
2081 | Did you ever see a happy woman in your life? |
2081 | Do I assume to be your judge? |
2081 | Do n''t you mean to get up to- day?" |
2081 | Do we dream the same dream twice? |
2081 | Do you feel suddenly ill? |
2081 | Do you forgive me?" |
2081 | Do you know such a person?" |
2081 | Do you know, Mr. Coverdale, I have been on trial for my life?" |
2081 | Do you know, Mr. Coverdale, that I have been several times on the point of making you my confidant, for lack of a better and wiser one? |
2081 | Do you love this girl?" |
2081 | Do you seriously imagine that any such realities as you, and many others here, have dreamed of, will ever be brought to pass?" |
2081 | Do you suppose he will be content to spend his life, or even a few months of it, among tolerably virtuous and comfortable individuals like ourselves?" |
2081 | Dost thou come hither, not in holy faith, nor with a pure and generous purpose, but in scornful scepticism and idle curiosity? |
2081 | For instance:--"Which man among you,"quoth he,"is the best judge of swine? |
2081 | For, was mine a mere vulgar curiosity? |
2081 | Had all her existence been comprehended within that mysterious veil, and was she now annihilated? |
2081 | Had it never failed her before? |
2081 | Has not thy heart recognized me? |
2081 | Has she no tongue?" |
2081 | Have I not said enough, Zenobia?" |
2081 | Have the pineapples been gathered to- day? |
2081 | Have you any impressions of this nature?" |
2081 | Here,"he added, addressing Hollingsworth,"would you like to keep the shoe?" |
2081 | How can I be dismal, if my heart will not let me?" |
2081 | How do you mean to manage this business?" |
2081 | How else be inspired to say his prayers? |
2081 | How else could he be imbued with energy enough to hope for a happier state hereafter? |
2081 | How should she?" |
2081 | In what attitude did Zenobia present herself to Hollingsworth? |
2081 | Is it finished yet?" |
2081 | Is it their nature? |
2081 | Is she a protegee of yours? |
2081 | Looks this like ostentation? |
2081 | Miles Coverdale, where are you?" |
2081 | No sooner did I behold the bearded enchanter, than, laying my hand again on Hollingsworth''s shoulder, I whispered in his ear,"Do you know him?" |
2081 | One evening, months after Priscilla''s departure, when Moodie( or shall we call him Fauntleroy?) |
2081 | One''s own likeness, in the innermost, holiest niche? |
2081 | Or is it, at last, the result of ages of compelled degradation? |
2081 | Or, supposing them to bear sterling weight, was it a perilous and dreadful wrong which she was meditating towards herself and Hollingsworth? |
2081 | Put passionate warmth into his heart, when it shall be chilled with frozen hopes? |
2081 | Shall I reveal it? |
2081 | Shall I run out and pluck you some roses? |
2081 | Strengthen his hands, when they are weary with much doing and no performance? |
2081 | Tell me fairly,--did you never drink it where the grape grows?" |
2081 | Tell me once again, can I do nothing for you?" |
2081 | The melancholy Jacques, perhaps? |
2081 | To be sure, there are more to be had; but who cares about making a new set of friends, even should they be better than those around us?" |
2081 | Was Westervelt a goblin? |
2081 | Were they formed of a material lighter than common air? |
2081 | Were those words of passion and agony, which Zenobia had uttered in my hearing, a mere stage declamation? |
2081 | What are ye about, now? |
2081 | What are you seeking to discover in me?" |
2081 | What can I do for her?" |
2081 | What can Priscilla do for him? |
2081 | What can you say to that?" |
2081 | What charm was there in his rude massiveness that so attracted and soothed this shadow- like girl? |
2081 | What else could possibly be done for him? |
2081 | What girl had ever laughed as Zenobia did? |
2081 | What girl had ever spoken in her mellow tones? |
2081 | What had I ever had to do with them? |
2081 | What had I to offer him? |
2081 | What had become of her? |
2081 | What is its use, except to fling a golden radiance around those who grasp it? |
2081 | What is your name?" |
2081 | What on earth do you want more? |
2081 | What retribution is there here? |
2081 | What will you do, Priscilla, when you find no spark among the ashes?" |
2081 | What, in the name of common- sense, had I to do with any better society than I had always lived in? |
2081 | What, then, had become of all the fraternity and sisterhood? |
2081 | Where will he find it now?" |
2081 | Why could not she have allowed one of the other women to take the gruel in charge? |
2081 | Why should he seek me? |
2081 | Why should we be content with our homely life of a few months past, to the exclusion of all other modes? |
2081 | Why, then, does he not come forward to defend her character, unless he is conscious that an investigation would only make the matter worse?" |
2081 | Will not Nature shed a tear? |
2081 | Will you devote yourself, and sacrifice all to this great end, and be my friend of friends forever?" |
2081 | Will you tell me what I can do for you?" |
2081 | Would it not be well, even before we have absolute need of it, to fix upon a spot for a cemetery? |
2081 | Would my friends like to know what brought it thither? |
2081 | Would you like a bread- fruit, or a cocoanut? |
2081 | Would you like to see her?" |
2081 | are you there, Miles Coverdale? |
2081 | do we part so?" |
2081 | had we come out from among the swinish multitude for this? |
2081 | or have you taken up the advocacy of women''s rights? |
2081 | or what else can have interested you in this lady? |
2081 | where have you left Zenobia?" |
33 | , said he;is it thou? |
33 | Am I mad? 33 And I!--how am I to live longer, breathing the same air with this deadly enemy?" |
33 | And about what? |
33 | And now what wouldst thou with me touching this man? |
33 | And what am I now? |
33 | And what of him? |
33 | And what other time? |
33 | And what reason is that? |
33 | And wherefore? |
33 | And why not, mother? |
33 | And will he always keep his hand over his heart? |
33 | And will he hold out both his hands to me, as when thou ledst me to him from the brook- side? |
33 | And will the minister be there? |
33 | Art thou like the Black Man that haunts the forest round about us? 33 Art thou my child, in very truth?" |
33 | Ay-- how is that, good Master Dimmesdale? |
33 | Better? 33 But did your reverence hear of the portent that was seen last night? |
33 | But how to avoid it? 33 But where is this mother of thine? |
33 | But wilt thou promise,asked Pearl,"to take my hand, and mother''s hand, to- morrow noontide?" |
33 | Child, what art thou? |
33 | Didst thou ever awake and find thy mother gone? |
33 | Do I feel joy again? |
33 | Do you see that woman with the embroidered badge? |
33 | Dost thou know me so little, Hester Prynne? 33 Dost thou know thy mother now, child? |
33 | Dost thou know, child, wherefore thy mother wears this letter? |
33 | Dost thou mock me now? |
33 | Dost thou not think her beautiful? 33 Dost thou remember me, Hester, as I was nine years agone? |
33 | Dost thou think I have been to the forest so many times, and have yet no skill to judge who else has been there? 33 Dost thou think the child will be glad to know me?" |
33 | Doth he love us? |
33 | Doth the universe lie within the compass of yonder town, which only a little time ago was but a leaf- strewn desert, as lonely as this around us? 33 Has he not paid thee all?" |
33 | Hast thou not tortured him enough? |
33 | Hast thou seen it? |
33 | Hast thou? |
33 | Have you another passenger? |
33 | Hester,said he,"hast thou found peace?" |
33 | How can you question it? |
33 | How knewest thou that I was here? |
33 | I wonder if mother will ask me what it means? |
33 | Is it the Black Man? |
33 | Is not this better,murmured he,"than what we dreamed of in the forest?" |
33 | Is the world, then, so narrow? |
33 | Is the worshipful Governor Bellingham within? |
33 | Mother,said she,"what does the scarlet letter mean?" |
33 | Never, sayest thou? |
33 | Now, what mortal imagination could conceive it? |
33 | Sayest thou so? |
33 | Shall we not meet again? |
33 | Shall we not spend our immortal life together? 33 Tell me, then, what thou art, and who sent thee hither?" |
33 | Then why not reveal it here? |
33 | This woman has brought shame upon us all, and ought to die; is there not law for it? 33 Thou wilt not reveal his name? |
33 | Thy mother is yonder woman with the scarlet letter,said the seaman,"Wilt thou carry her a message from me?" |
33 | Welcome home, reverend sir,said the physician"And how found you that godly man, the Apostle Eliot? |
33 | Were it not better,said he,"that you use my poor skill tonight? |
33 | What choice had you? |
33 | What do we talk of marks and brands, whether on the bodice of her gown or the flesh of her forehead? |
33 | What does the letter mean, mother? 33 What does this sad little brook say, mother?" |
33 | What else could I look for, being what I am, and leading such a life as mine? 33 What evil have I done the man?" |
33 | What evil thing is at hand? |
33 | What has the letter to do with any heart save mine? |
33 | What have we here? |
33 | What have you to do with us? |
33 | What is he? |
33 | What is it that haunts and tempts me thus? |
33 | What is it, good Mistress Hibbins? |
33 | What little bird of scarlet plumage may this be? 33 What mean you?" |
33 | What say you, worshipful Master Bellingham? 33 What see you in my face,"asked the physician,"that you look at it so earnestly?" |
33 | What sent you hither? |
33 | What shall I say? |
33 | What should ail me to harm this misbegotten and miserable babe? 33 What should he say, Pearl,"answered Hester,"save that it was no time to kiss, and that kisses are not to be given in the market- place? |
33 | What wouldst thou say, child? |
33 | Whence come you, Hester? |
33 | Wherefore dost thou desire it? |
33 | Wherefore have all the people left their work to- day? 33 Who is he? |
33 | Who is that man, Hester? |
33 | Who speaks? |
33 | Why dost thou smile so at me? |
33 | Why doth the minister sit yonder? |
33 | Why not announce thyself openly, and cast me off at once? |
33 | Why should not the guilty ones sooner avail themselves of this unutterable solace? |
33 | Why, know you not,cried the shipmaster,"that this physician here-- Chillingworth he calls himself-- is minded to try my cabin- fare with you? |
33 | Why, what is this, mother? |
33 | Will he go back with us, hand in hand, we three together, into the town? |
33 | Will not it come of its own accord when I am a woman grown? |
33 | Wilt thou come across the brook, and own thy mother, now that she has her shame upon her-- now that she is sad? |
33 | Wilt thou die for very weakness? 33 Wilt thou go and play, child?" |
33 | Wilt thou go with us to- night? 33 Wilt thou let me be at peace, if I once tell thee?" |
33 | Wilt thou not frown? 33 Wilt thou stand here with mother and me, to- morrow noontide?" |
33 | Wilt thou yet forgive me? |
33 | Wouldst thou avenge thyself on the innocent babe? |
33 | Yes, mother,answered Pearl,"But if it be the Black Man, wilt thou not let me stay a moment, and look at him, with his big book under his arm?" |
33 | You would tell me, then, that I know all? |
33 | ( Had Hester sinned alone?) |
33 | And didst thou ever meet him? |
33 | And does he now summon me to its fulfilment, by suggesting the performance of every wickedness which his most foul imagination can conceive?" |
33 | And dost thou go to meet him in the nighttime?" |
33 | And is this his mark?" |
33 | And thou, Arthur Dimmesdale, dost thou yet live?" |
33 | And was this the man? |
33 | And what hast thou to do with all these iron men, and their opinions? |
33 | And wherefore should it not bring you peace?" |
33 | And whither was he now going? |
33 | And, moreover, is there not a quality of awful sacredness in the relation between this mother and this child?" |
33 | Are my purposes wo nt to be so shallow? |
33 | Are you there?" |
33 | Art thou a Christian child-- ha? |
33 | Art thou in life?" |
33 | Art thou not afraid of nightmares and hideous dreams?" |
33 | But dost thou know, my child, what this letter means which thy mother is doomed to wear?" |
33 | But how gat such a guest into my hall?" |
33 | But how? |
33 | But now thou wilt?" |
33 | But now-- since I am irrevocably doomed-- wherefore should I not snatch the solace allowed to the condemned culprit before his execution? |
33 | But where was his mind? |
33 | But where was little Pearl? |
33 | But who art thou, that meddlest in this matter? |
33 | But who can see an inch into futurity beyond his nose? |
33 | But why does he not wear it outside his bosom, as thou dost, mother?" |
33 | Canst thou do nothing for me? |
33 | Canst thou tell me, my child, who made thee?" |
33 | Could it be true? |
33 | Could there be plainer speech than this? |
33 | Couldst thou surely tell, Hester, whether he was the same man that encountered thee on the forest path?" |
33 | Did I make a contract with him in the forest, and sign it with my blood? |
33 | Did he wish to die? |
33 | Did the sun, which shone so brightly everywhere else, really fall upon him? |
33 | Didst thou ever meet the Black Man, mother?" |
33 | Dost know thy catechism? |
33 | Dost thou know the man? |
33 | Dost thou not see what I would say? |
33 | Dost thou remember me? |
33 | Doth this bring thee no comfort?" |
33 | Doth thy sentence bind thee to wear the token in thy sleep? |
33 | Ha, Hester Prynne?" |
33 | Had Mr. Dimmesdale actually spoken? |
33 | Had seven long years, under the torture of the scarlet letter, inflicted so much of misery and wrought out no repentance? |
33 | Hast thou enticed me into a bond that will prove the ruin of my soul?" |
33 | Hast thou exhausted possibility in the failure of this one trial? |
33 | Hast thou forgotten it?" |
33 | Hath he not pleaded well for the poor woman?" |
33 | Hath she affections? |
33 | Hath she any discoverable principle of being?" |
33 | Hath she not expressed this thought in the garb of the poor child, so forcibly reminding us of that red symbol which sears her bosom?" |
33 | How can it be otherwise? |
33 | How fared it with him, then? |
33 | How is it, Hester? |
33 | How may this be unless you first lay open to him the wound or trouble in your soul?" |
33 | Is Hester Prynne the less miserable, think you, for that scarlet letter on her breast?" |
33 | Is it a play- day for the whole world? |
33 | Is it because, when the minister wrote his name in the book, the Black Man set his mark in that place? |
33 | Is it true, mother? |
33 | Is the imp altogether evil? |
33 | Is there no reality in the penitence thus sealed and witnessed by good works? |
33 | Is there not shade enough in all this boundless forest to hide thy heart from the gaze of Roger Chillingworth?" |
33 | Is there such a Black Man? |
33 | Must I sink down there, and die at once?" |
33 | Must it be thou, or I, that shall deal with this poor sinner''s soul?" |
33 | O Thou to whom I dare not lift mine eyes, wilt Thou yet pardon me?" |
33 | Or art thou one of those naughty elfs or fairies whom we thought to have left behind us, with other relics of Papistry, in merry old England?" |
33 | Or is she an elfish spirit, who, as the legends of our childhood taught us, is forbidden to cross a running stream? |
33 | Or might it suffice him that every wholesome growth should be converted into something deleterious and malignant at his touch? |
33 | Or was there, as it rather seemed, a circle of ominous shadow moving along with his deformity whichever way he turned himself? |
33 | Or would he spread bat''s wings and flee away, looking so much the uglier the higher he rose towards heaven? |
33 | Or, if not, thou strange and elfish child, whence didst thou come?" |
33 | Or, must she receive those intimations-- so obscure, yet so distinct-- as truth? |
33 | Prithee, young one, who art thou, and what has ailed thy mother to bedizen thee in this strange fashion? |
33 | See ye not, she is the scarlet letter, only capable of being loved, and so endowed with a millionfold the power of retribution for my sin? |
33 | Shall I lie down again on these withered leaves, where I cast myself when thou didst tell me what he was? |
33 | So thou thinkest the child will love me?" |
33 | That unsunned snow in the matron''s bosom, and the burning shame on Hester Prynne''s-- what had the two in common? |
33 | Then she spoke aloud--"Silly Pearl,"said she,"what questions are these? |
33 | Then what was he?--a substance?--or the dimmest of all shadows? |
33 | Thou wilt love him-- wilt thou not?" |
33 | Was I not all this?" |
33 | Was existence worth accepting even to the happiest among them? |
33 | Was he weary of his labours? |
33 | Was it but the mockery of penitence? |
33 | Was not the secret told me, in the natural recoil of my heart at the first sight of him, and as often as I have seen him since? |
33 | Were such a man once more to fall, what plea could be urged in extenuation of his crime? |
33 | Were there not the brilliant particles of a halo in the air about his head? |
33 | What can a ruined soul like mine effect towards the redemption of other souls?--or a polluted soul towards their purification? |
33 | What can thy silence do for him, except it tempt him-- yea, compel him, as it were-- to add hypocrisy to sin? |
33 | What canst thou do for the child in this kind?" |
33 | What choice remains to me? |
33 | What did it betoken? |
33 | What have they all come to do, here in the market- place?" |
33 | What is that the minister seeks to hide, with his hand always over his heart? |
33 | What kind of business in life-- what mode of glorifying God, or being serviceable to mankind in his day and generation-- may that be? |
33 | What know I of the minister''s heart? |
33 | What mean you?" |
33 | What say you to it, once again, brother Dimmesdale? |
33 | What sayest thou?" |
33 | What think ye, gossips? |
33 | What was it? |
33 | What were they? |
33 | What will now be the course of his revenge?" |
33 | What would the minister have said, mother? |
33 | What, could he, whose sphere was in great cities, be seeking in the wilderness? |
33 | What, in heaven''s name, is she? |
33 | When hast thou been so sluggish before now? |
33 | When the whole had gone by, she looked up into Hester''s face--"Mother,"said she,"was that the same minister that kissed me by the brook?" |
33 | Where are you?" |
33 | Wherefore should we linger upon it now? |
33 | Whither leads yonder forest- track? |
33 | Who is he? |
33 | Who is he?" |
33 | Who made me so?" |
33 | Whom would they discern there, with the red eastern light upon his brow? |
33 | Why did I not understand? |
33 | Why did we not find it sooner?" |
33 | Why does he do so, mother?" |
33 | Why hast thou not avenged thyself on me?" |
33 | Why shouldst thou tarry so much as one other day in the torments that have so gnawed into thy life? |
33 | Why, then, had he come hither? |
33 | Why, with such rank in the learned world, had he come hither? |
33 | Will he continue, then, to keep our secret? |
33 | Will not my aid be requisite to put you in heart and strength to preach your Election Sermon?" |
33 | Wilt thou forgive?" |
33 | Wilt thou give up that only privilege? |
33 | Wilt thou not love him? |
33 | Wilt thou reject that priceless benefit?" |
33 | Wilt thou ride with me some fine night to see thy father? |
33 | Wilt thou tell her this, thou witch- baby?" |
33 | Wilt thou yet purge it out of thee, and be once more human? |
33 | Would he arouse him with a throb of agony? |
33 | Would he have clapped his hand over his heart, and scowled on me, and bid me begone?" |
33 | Would he startle him with sudden fear? |
33 | Would not the people start up in their seats, by a simultaneous impulse, and tear him down out of the pulpit which he defiled? |
33 | Would you bring infamy on your sacred profession?" |
33 | Would you, therefore, that your physician heal the bodily evil? |
33 | and is it Mistress Hester that has a word for old Roger Chillingworth?" |
33 | and why does the minister keep his hand over his heart?" |
33 | and why dost thou wear it? |
33 | can this be you? |
33 | cried Pearl, after listening awhile to its talk,"Why art thou so sad? |
33 | exclaimed a man in the crowd,"is there no virtue in woman, save what springs from a wholesome fear of the gallows? |
33 | or am I given over utterly to the fiend? |
33 | that dares thrust himself between the sufferer and his God?" |
33 | that have made thee feeble to will and to do? |
33 | that will leave thee powerless even to repent? |
33 | what is your purpose?" |
33 | what right had infirmity like his to burden itself with crime? |
33 | why dost thou not come to me?" |
35377 | And can I assist your Majesty in obtaining it? |
35377 | And can not you rest the sky upon a mountain? |
35377 | And do you know,asked the damsel who had first spoken,"that a terrible dragon, with a hundred heads, keeps watch under the golden apple- tree?" |
35377 | And have you never seen him, my fair maiden? |
35377 | And how big was the box? |
35377 | And how broad, I wonder, were the shoulders of Hercules? |
35377 | And how dare you make this disturbance, while I am sacrificing a black bull to my father Neptune? |
35377 | And how happens that? 35377 And how long a time,"asked the hero,"will it take you to get the golden apples?" |
35377 | And how soon shall I be strong enough? |
35377 | And is he a live giant, or a brazen image? |
35377 | And pray what would satisfy you? |
35377 | And was she not his sister? |
35377 | And what do you want in my dominions? |
35377 | And what has become of the pitcher now? |
35377 | And what in the world can be inside of it? |
35377 | And what is there in this magnificent golden rose to make you cry? |
35377 | And what of it? |
35377 | And what say you, venerable sir? |
35377 | And what would become of Ben and Bruin? |
35377 | And where did it come from? |
35377 | And why not? |
35377 | And will you carry me back when I have seen it? |
35377 | And will you never regret the possession of it? |
35377 | And will you stay with us,asked Epimetheus,"forever and ever?" |
35377 | And would Tanglewood turn to smoke, as well as we? |
35377 | And, besides, what would my dear mother do, if her beloved son were turned into a stone? |
35377 | And, pray, who may the Old One be? |
35377 | Are they as good as the first? |
35377 | Are you awake, Prince Theseus? |
35377 | Are you sure, beautiful Medea,asked Jason,"quite sure, that the unguent in the gold box will prove a remedy against those terrible burns?" |
35377 | But can I do nothing to help them? |
35377 | But how shall I ever find him? |
35377 | But is not this enough? 35377 But what must I do,"asked Perseus,"when we meet them?" |
35377 | But where can the monster be? |
35377 | But who gave it to you? |
35377 | But, can you show me the way to the garden of the Hesperides? |
35377 | But,said Perseus,"why should I waste my time with these Three Gray Women? |
35377 | Ca n''t I see into a thick bush as easily as yourself? 35377 Can you believe,"asked Eustace,"that there was once a winged horse?" |
35377 | Can you tell me, pretty maidens,asked the stranger,"whether this is the right way to the garden of the Hesperides?" |
35377 | Cousin Eustace,said Sweet Fern,"did the box hold all the trouble that has ever come into the world?" |
35377 | Did there really come any words out of the hole? |
35377 | Did you ever hear the like? |
35377 | Did you see that flash of light? |
35377 | Do n''t you think that I succeeded pretty well in catching that wonderful pony? |
35377 | Do not you see you are lost, without me as your good angel? 35377 Do you call that a wonderful exploit?" |
35377 | Do you not believe,said he, looking at the damsels with a smile,"that such a blow would have crushed one of the dragon''s hundred heads?" |
35377 | Do you not know that this island is enchanted? 35377 Do you see it?" |
35377 | Do you see? 35377 Do you, indeed, my dear child?" |
35377 | Does it presume to be green, when I have bidden it be barren, until my daughter shall be restored to my arms? |
35377 | Does the earth disobey me? |
35377 | Does your Majesty see his confusion? |
35377 | Dost thou bleed, my immortal horse? |
35377 | Foolish woman,answered Ceres,"did you not promise to intrust this poor infant entirely to me? |
35377 | Have they undergone a similar change, through the arts of this wicked Circe? |
35377 | Have we not an author for our next neighbor? |
35377 | Have you anything to tell me, little bird? |
35377 | Have you brought me the head of Medusa with the snaky locks? 35377 Have you come so far to seek it,"exclaimed Medea,"and do you not recognize the meed of all your toils and perils, when it glitters before your eyes? |
35377 | Have you forgotten what guards it? |
35377 | Have you performed your promise? |
35377 | How could it fail? |
35377 | How will you prevent me,asked Hercules,"from going whither I please?" |
35377 | How, then, can I tell you what is inside? |
35377 | Is it a wholesome wine? |
35377 | Is it much farther? |
35377 | Is it not a very pleasant stream? |
35377 | Is the sky very heavy? |
35377 | Is there something alive in the box? 35377 Just take the sky upon your head one instant, will you? |
35377 | Must we wait long for harvest- time? |
35377 | My child,said she,"did you taste any food while you were in King Pluto''s palace?" |
35377 | My dear Epimetheus,cried Pandora,"have you heard this little voice?" |
35377 | My pretty bird,said Eurylochus,--for he was a wary person, and let no token of harm escape his notice,--"my pretty bird, who sent you hither? |
35377 | O Primrose and Periwinkle, do you hear what he says? |
35377 | O brindled cow,cried he, in a tone of despair,"do you never mean to stop?" |
35377 | O daughter of the Talking Oak,cried he,"how shall we set to work to get our vessel into the water?" |
35377 | O my dear son,cried King Ægeus,"why should you expose yourself to this horrible fate? |
35377 | Oh, my sweet violets, shall I never see you again? |
35377 | Oh, what shall we do, sisters? 35377 Oh, where is my dear child?" |
35377 | On what errand? |
35377 | Pandora, what are you thinking of? |
35377 | Perseus,said the voice,"why are you sad?" |
35377 | Pray what is the matter with you, this bright morning? |
35377 | Pray, my good host, whence did you gather them? |
35377 | Pray, my young friend,said he, as they grew familiar together,"what may I call your name?" |
35377 | Pray, nurse,the queen kept saying,"how is it that you make the child thrive so?" |
35377 | Pray, what do you want with me? |
35377 | Pray, who are you, beautiful creature? |
35377 | Quicksilver? 35377 Sacred oracle of Delphi,"said he,"whither shall I go next in quest of my dear sister Europa?" |
35377 | See if you can lift this rock on which we are sitting? |
35377 | Shall I lift the lid again? |
35377 | Shall we not meet her soon? |
35377 | So you have got the golden apples? |
35377 | Tell me,cried he, before the Old One was well awake,"which is the way to the garden of the Hesperides?" |
35377 | That little bird, which met me at the edge of the cliff,exclaimed Ulysses;"was he a human being once?" |
35377 | The Golden Touch,asked the stranger,"or your own little Marygold, warm, soft, and loving as she was an hour ago?" |
35377 | The Golden Touch,continued the stranger,"or a crust of bread?" |
35377 | Then you are not satisfied? |
35377 | Was it the girdle of Venus,inquired the prettiest of the damsels,"which makes women beautiful?" |
35377 | Well, and what of that? |
35377 | Well, but, dear mother,asked the boy,"why can not I go to this famous city of Athens, and tell King Ægeus that I am his son?" |
35377 | Well, friend Midas,said the stranger,"pray how do you succeed with the Golden Touch?" |
35377 | What can it be? |
35377 | What can that be? |
35377 | What could induce me? |
35377 | What do you want there? |
35377 | What does this mean? |
35377 | What hast thou to do with an affair like this? 35377 What in the world do you want here? |
35377 | What in the world, my little fellow,ejaculated Hercules,"may you be?" |
35377 | What is it? |
35377 | What is the matter, Jason? |
35377 | What is the matter, father? |
35377 | What is there to gratify her heart? 35377 What is this wonder?" |
35377 | What kind of a monster may that be? 35377 What mean you, little bird?" |
35377 | What says King Æetes, my royal and upright father? |
35377 | What shall I do,said he,"in order to win the Golden Fleece?" |
35377 | What shall I do? |
35377 | What sort of a staff had he? |
35377 | What will Epimetheus say? 35377 What''s all this?" |
35377 | What''s your name? 35377 What, then, shall I do?" |
35377 | What,said Hecate,"the young man that always sits in the sunshine? |
35377 | Whence can the box have come? |
35377 | Whence come you, strangers? |
35377 | Where are you, Perseus? |
35377 | Where are your two- and- twenty comrades? |
35377 | Where is Proserpina? |
35377 | Where is my child? 35377 Where is she?" |
35377 | Where was the sound, and which way did it seem to go? |
35377 | Where? |
35377 | Which shall I strike at? |
35377 | Whither are you going in such a hurry, wise Ulysses? |
35377 | Whither are you going, Jason? |
35377 | Who are you, I say? |
35377 | Who are you, down at my feet there? 35377 Who are you, inside of this naughty box?" |
35377 | Who are you? |
35377 | Who are you? |
35377 | Who are you? |
35377 | Whose garment is this,inquired Perseus,"that keeps rustling close beside me in the breeze?" |
35377 | Why do you come alone? |
35377 | Why do you squeeze me so hard? 35377 Why should you be so frightened, my pretty child?" |
35377 | Will he give you the Golden Fleece, without any further risk or trouble? |
35377 | Will not you stay a moment,asked Phoebus,"and hear me turn the pretty and touching story of Proserpina into extemporary verses?" |
35377 | Will the dog bite me? |
35377 | Will you be kind enough to tell me whether the fountain has any name? |
35377 | Will you trust the child entirely to me? |
35377 | Wretch,cried Circe, giving him a smart stroke with her wand,"how dare you keep your human shape a moment longer? |
35377 | You silly children, what do you want of more snow? |
35377 | Young man,asked he, with his stern voice,"are you not appalled at the certainty of being devoured by this terrible Minotaur?" |
35377 | Your sister? |
35377 | Alas, what had he done? |
35377 | And almost the first question which she put to him, after crossing the threshold, was this,--"Epimetheus, what have you in that box?" |
35377 | And do n''t you see how careful we are to let the surf wave break over us every moment or two, so as to keep ourselves comfortably moist? |
35377 | And how can I possibly tie it up again?" |
35377 | And how long was his little finger?" |
35377 | And now, my little auditors, shall I tell you something that will make you open your eyes very wide? |
35377 | And pray, adventurous traveller, what do you want there?" |
35377 | And this, then, is Pirene? |
35377 | And was Cousin Eustace with the party? |
35377 | And what could that favor be, unless to multiply his heaps of treasure? |
35377 | And what do you think the snowy bull did next? |
35377 | And what else did Bellerophon behold there? |
35377 | And what is the message which you bring?" |
35377 | And what was to be done? |
35377 | And whence could this bull have come? |
35377 | And whence do you come, in that little cup?" |
35377 | And who are you?" |
35377 | And your companion there? |
35377 | And, as your next effort, what if you should try your hand on some one of the legends of Apollo?" |
35377 | And, indeed, why not? |
35377 | And, on that island, what do you think he saw? |
35377 | And, truly, my dear little folks, did you ever hear of such a pitiable case in all your lives? |
35377 | Are not these gems, which I have ordered to be dug for you, and which are richer than any in my crown,--are they not prettier than a violet?" |
35377 | Are there no better walkers than yourself in the island of Seriphus?" |
35377 | Are you an enchantress?" |
35377 | Are you not terribly hungry? |
35377 | But are you quite sure that this will satisfy you?" |
35377 | But how can you help me to do the things of which you speak? |
35377 | But was it really and truly an old man? |
35377 | But, a little farther on, what should she behold? |
35377 | But, by the by, have you added any more legends to the series, since the publication of the Wonder Book?" |
35377 | But, in the first place, do any of you know what a Gorgon is?" |
35377 | But, pray, have you lost a horse? |
35377 | But, to test how much you have profited under so excellent a teacher, will you allow me to ask you a single question?" |
35377 | Can not I carry the golden apples to the king, your cousin, much quicker than you could? |
35377 | Can you guess who I am? |
35377 | Can you tell me what has become of my dear child Proserpina?" |
35377 | Could he drag the plough so well, think you? |
35377 | Could you help smiling, Prince Jason, to see the self- conceit of that last fellow, just as he tumbled down?" |
35377 | Dear Bellerophon, do you not see that it is no bird? |
35377 | Did the roots extend down into some enchanted cavern? |
35377 | Do n''t you pity me, Primrose?" |
35377 | Do n''t you see me?" |
35377 | Do n''t you think her the exact picture of yourself? |
35377 | Do you imagine that earthly children are to become immortal without being tempered to it in the fiercest heat of the fire? |
35377 | Do you know whether the winged horse Pegasus still haunts the Fountain of Pirene, as he used to do in your forefathers''days?" |
35377 | Do you perceive no nice workmanship in that? |
35377 | Do you see that tall gateway before us? |
35377 | Do you see this splendid crown upon my head? |
35377 | Do you think that you should be less curious than Pandora? |
35377 | Do you think you could tell us another as good?" |
35377 | Do you, then, love this king, your cousin, so very much?" |
35377 | Dost thou not tremble, wicked king, to turn thine eyes inward on thine own heart? |
35377 | Has he as strange a one?" |
35377 | Have I not faithfully kept my promise with you? |
35377 | Have you burnt your mouth?" |
35377 | Have you never made the sunshine dance into dark corners, by reflecting it from a bit of looking- glass? |
35377 | Have you not everything that your heart desired?" |
35377 | How are you, my good fellow?" |
35377 | How could a helmet make him invisible, unless it were big enough for him to hide under it? |
35377 | How many days, think you, would he survive a continuance of this rich fare? |
35377 | How shall I make him believe that I have not looked into the box?" |
35377 | How was the blessed sunshine to be thrown into them? |
35377 | How were they to be purified? |
35377 | If I should lose you, too, as well as my little Europa, what would become of me?" |
35377 | If any such misfortune were to happen, how could he ever get rid of the sky? |
35377 | If you were left alone with the box, might you not feel a little tempted to lift the lid? |
35377 | In those days, spectacles for common people had not been invented, but were already worn by kings; else, how could Midas have had any? |
35377 | Instead of his ordinary milk diet, did he not eat up two of our comrades for his supper, and a couple more for breakfast, and two at his supper again? |
35377 | Is it because I too am a king, that you desire so earnestly to speak with me? |
35377 | Is it not possible, at the risk of one''s life, to slay him?" |
35377 | Is there nothing which I can get you to eat?" |
35377 | May I not run down to the shore, and ask some of the sea- nymphs to come up out of the waves and play with me?" |
35377 | Now, who do you imagine these two voyagers turned out to be? |
35377 | Of that you may be certain; else how could the book go on a step further? |
35377 | Of what use would wings be to a horse? |
35377 | Oh, what a good time was that to be alive in? |
35377 | On which side of us does it lie? |
35377 | Or could it be the beating of her heart? |
35377 | Or is he afraid of wetting his fine golden- stringed sandals? |
35377 | Or was it merely the singing in Pandora''s ears? |
35377 | Pray, how big may your soul be?" |
35377 | Pray, what may I call your name? |
35377 | Pray, what would you advise me to do with him?" |
35377 | Pray, why do you live in such a bad neighborhood?" |
35377 | Proserpina, did you call her name?" |
35377 | Quicksilver?" |
35377 | Shall I never hear them again? |
35377 | So you have made a discovery, since yesterday?" |
35377 | THE MIRACULOUS PITCHER The Hill- Side_ Introductory to"The Miraculous Pitcher"_ And when, and where, do you think we find the children next? |
35377 | Tanglewood Play- Room_ After the Story_"Primrose,"asked Eustace, pinching her ear,"how do you like my little Pandora? |
35377 | Tanglewood Porch_ After the Story_"Was not that a very fine story?" |
35377 | Tell me, for pity''s sake, have you seen my poor child Proserpina pass by the mouth of your cavern?" |
35377 | Tell me, now, do you sincerely desire to rid yourself of this Golden Touch?" |
35377 | Tell me, you naughty sea- nymphs, have you enticed her under the sea?" |
35377 | The Hill- Side_ After the Story_"How much did the pitcher hold?" |
35377 | The Three Golden Apples Did you ever hear of the golden apples, that grew in the garden of the Hesperides? |
35377 | The ancient poets remodelled them at pleasure, and held them plastic in their hands; and why should they not be plastic in my hands as well?" |
35377 | The gentle and innocent creature( for who could possibly doubt that he was so?) |
35377 | This showed some intelligence in the oak; else how should it have known that any such person existed? |
35377 | Was Theseus afraid? |
35377 | Were we to drown the world with them, could the world blame us? |
35377 | What are all the splendors you speak of, without affection? |
35377 | What are kings made for, save to succor the feeble and distressed? |
35377 | What can I do with him?" |
35377 | What can have been the matter with them?" |
35377 | What can we do to drive them away?" |
35377 | What could it be, indeed? |
35377 | What do you think has happened? |
35377 | What do you think of this, my brave Jason?" |
35377 | What does he mean to do? |
35377 | What harm can the lady of the palace and her maidens do to mariners and warriors like us?" |
35377 | What harm can there be in opening the box? |
35377 | What if you should take my burden on your shoulders, while I do your errand for you?" |
35377 | What in the world could we do without her? |
35377 | What mortal, even if he possessed a hundred lives, could hope to escape the fangs of such a monster? |
35377 | What say you, Sweet Fern, Dandelion, Clover, Periwinkle? |
35377 | What should it be but the most magnificent palace that had ever been seen in the world? |
35377 | What sort of a contrivance may that be, I wonder? |
35377 | What will the king say to the one- sandalled man?" |
35377 | Whence has he come? |
35377 | Where are you all? |
35377 | Which of the three is Medusa?" |
35377 | Which of these two things do you think is really worth the most,--the gift of the Golden Touch, or one cup of clear cold water?" |
35377 | Why did not I think of him before? |
35377 | Why do you come hither? |
35377 | Why, friend, are you in your senses? |
35377 | Why, what could have become of the child? |
35377 | Will not you like to ride a little way with me, in my beautiful chariot?" |
35377 | Will you go with me, Phoebus, to demand my daughter of this wicked Pluto?" |
35377 | Would any of you, after hearing this story, be so foolish as to desire the faculty of changing things to gold?" |
35377 | Would he be less so by dinner- time? |
35377 | Would it not be better to set out at once in search of the terrible Gorgons?" |
35377 | Yet, what other loaf could it possibly be? |
35377 | You have been gathering flowers? |
35377 | Your mother, beholding you safe and sound, will shed tears of joy; and what can she do more, should you win ever so great a victory? |
35377 | and where did you receive your education?" |
35377 | asked Theseus,"if the labyrinth so bewilders me as you say it will?" |
35377 | cried Perseus, to whom this seemed only a new difficulty in the path of his adventure;"pray who may the Three Gray Women be? |
35377 | cried little Marygold, who was a very affectionate child,"pray what is the matter? |
35377 | cried the student,"do you think I was there, to measure him with a yard- stick? |
35377 | cried these kind- hearted old people,"what has become of our poor neighbors?" |
35377 | do you smell the feast? |
35377 | do you think me so?" |
35377 | he cried;"how came you by it?" |
35377 | if the fathers and mothers were so small, what must the children and babies have been? |
35377 | must you go so soon?" |
35377 | nor taste those nice little savory dishes which my dearest wife knew how to serve up?" |
35377 | shouted Hercules, very wrathfully,"do you intend to make me bear this burden forever?" |
35377 | sisters, what Nymphs does he mean?" |
35377 | thought Cadmus;"or have I been dreaming all this while?" |
35377 | was there ever such a gentle, sweet, pretty, and amiable creature as this bull, and ever such a nice playmate for a little girl? |
35377 | what is the young man talking about?" |
35377 | what shall we do? |
35377 | why did n''t we go without our supper?" |
35377 | why have you opened this wicked box?" |
13707 | ''Where are you going, my pretty maid?'' |
13707 | A procession of the regicide judges of King Charles the martyr? |
13707 | All have been her victims; who so worthy to be the final victim as herself? |
13707 | And did you also hear them? |
13707 | And did you really see him at the province- house? |
13707 | And do you feel it, then, at last? |
13707 | And how,inquired I,"did his wife bear the shock of joyful surprise?" |
13707 | And must I also pick up such worthless luggage in my travels? |
13707 | And shall not the youth''s hair be cut? |
13707 | And so, Peter, you wo n''t even consider of the business? |
13707 | And the cost, Peter? 13707 And this dancing bear?" |
13707 | And what shall be the token? |
13707 | And what,inquired Ralph Cranfield, with a tremor in his voice--"what may this office be which is to equal me with kings and potentates?" |
13707 | And who is there by this green pool that can bring thee news from the ends of the earth? |
13707 | And yet,whispered Alice Vane,"may not such fables have a moral? |
13707 | Are we grown old again so soon? |
13707 | Are you mad, old man? |
13707 | Are you sure it is our parson? |
13707 | Art thou here with me, and none other? 13707 But did Ponce de Leon ever find it?" |
13707 | But how if he wakes? |
13707 | But in what capacity? |
13707 | But what has good Parson Hooper got upon his face? |
13707 | But what if the world will not believe that it is the type of an innocent sorrow? |
13707 | But what is the meaning of it all? |
13707 | But who were the three that preceded him? |
13707 | But will ye lead him in the path which his parents have trodden? |
13707 | But would it be possible,inquired her cousin,"to restore this dark picture to its pristine hues?" |
13707 | Call you this liberty of conscience? |
13707 | Can that be my old playmate Faith Egerton? |
13707 | Can there be a funeral so late this afternoon? |
13707 | Can ye teach him the enlightened faith which his father has died for, and for which I-- even I-- am soon to become an unworthy martyr? 13707 Catharine, blessed woman,"exclaimed the old man,"art thou come to this darkened land again? |
13707 | Come,said I to the damsel of gay attire;"shall we visit all the wonders of the world together?" |
13707 | Couldst thou have thought there were such merry times in a mad- house? |
13707 | Cruel? |
13707 | Dark old man,exclaimed the affrighted minister,"with what horrible crime upon your soul are you now passing to the judgment?" |
13707 | Did not my great- grand- uncle, Peter Goldthwaite, who died seventy years ago, and whose namesake I am, leave treasure enough to build twenty such? |
13707 | Did not the door open? |
13707 | Did you never hear of the Fountain of Youth? |
13707 | Didst thou see it too? |
13707 | Dighton,demanded the general,"what means this foolery? |
13707 | Do we not all spring from an evil root? 13707 Do you see no change in your portrait?" |
13707 | Does Fate impede its own decree? |
13707 | Dost thou desire nothing brighter than gold, that thou wouldst transmute all this ethereal lustre into such dross as thou wallowest in already? 13707 Edith, sweet Lady of the May,"whispered he, reproachfully,"is yon wreath of roses a garland to hang above our graves that you look so sad? |
13707 | Elinor,exclaimed Walter, in amazement,"what change has come over you?" |
13707 | For heaven''s sake, what is the matter? |
13707 | Friend Tobias,inquired the old man, compassionately,"hast thou found no comfort in these many blessed passages of Scripture?" |
13707 | Had not you better let me take the job? |
13707 | Hath she not likewise a gift to declare her sentiments? |
13707 | Have any ever planned such a temple save ourselves? |
13707 | Have you a mother, dear child? |
13707 | Have you done much for the improvement of the city? |
13707 | Have you torn the house down enough to heat the teakettle? |
13707 | Hide it under thy cloak, sayest thou? 13707 How came it there?" |
13707 | How dare you stay the march of King James''s governor? |
13707 | How many stripes for the priest? |
13707 | How, fellow? |
13707 | I am a woman-- I am but a woman; will He try me above my strength? |
13707 | If I hide my face for sorrow, there is cause enough,he merely replied;"and if I cover it for secret sin, what mortal might not do the same?" |
13707 | In mine? 13707 In the devil''s name, what is this?" |
13707 | Is he one whom the wilderness- folk have ravished from some Christian mother? |
13707 | Is it known, my dear uncle,inquired she,"what this old picture once represented? |
13707 | Is the man thinking what he will do when he is a widower? |
13707 | Is there not a change? |
13707 | Is, then, the picture less like than it was yesterday? |
13707 | Mistress Dudley, why are you loitering here? |
13707 | Mr. Peter,remarked Tabitha,"must the wine be drunk before the money is found?" |
13707 | Must he share the stripes of his fellows? |
13707 | My dear old friends,repeated Dr. Heidegger,"may I reckon on your aid in performing an exceedingly curious experiment?" |
13707 | My poor boy, are you so feeble? |
13707 | No,said his bride,"for how could we live by day or sleep by night in this awful blaze of the Great Carbuncle?" |
13707 | Oh, Tabitha,cried he, with tremulous rapture,"how shall I endure the effulgence? |
13707 | Oh, maiden,said I aloud,"why did you not come hither alone?" |
13707 | Pray, how was it effected? |
13707 | See you not he is some old round- headed dignitary who hath lain asleep these thirty years and knows nothing of the change of times? 13707 Shall I tell the secrets of yours? |
13707 | Shall we go on? |
13707 | Shall we not waken him? |
13707 | So, Faith, you have kept the heart? |
13707 | Stern man,cried the May- lord,"how can I move thee? |
13707 | That, I suppose, will be provided for off- hand by drawing a check on Bubble Bank? |
13707 | The portraits-- are they within? |
13707 | Then who shall divulge the secret? 13707 Then you are going toward Vermont?" |
13707 | They are not under the sod,I rejoined;"then why should I mark the spot where there is no treasure hidden? |
13707 | To what purpose? |
13707 | Valiant captain,quoth Peter Palfrey, the ancient of the band,"what order shall be taken with the prisoners?" |
13707 | Walter, are you in earnest? |
13707 | We are not wo nt to show an idle courtesy to that sex which requireth the stricter discipline.--What sayest thou, maid? 13707 What castle- hall hast thou to hang it in?" |
13707 | What does this old fellow here? |
13707 | What does this rascal of a painter mean? |
13707 | What else have you brought to insure a welcome from the discontented race of mortals? |
13707 | What grievous affliction hath befallen you,she earnestly inquired,"that you should thus darken your eyes for ever?" |
13707 | What hast thou to do with conscience, thou knave? |
13707 | What have you been doing in the political way? |
13707 | What is here? 13707 What is it, mother?" |
13707 | What is that to the purpose? |
13707 | What is the coroner''s verdict? 13707 What may this portend?" |
13707 | What means the Bedlamite by this freak? |
13707 | What means this blaze of light? 13707 What new jest has Your Excellency in hand?" |
13707 | What pale and bright- eyed little boy is this, Tobias? |
13707 | What sweeter place shall we find than this? |
13707 | What thing art thou? |
13707 | What worthies are these? |
13707 | What''s here? |
13707 | When did you taste food last? |
13707 | When have I triumphed over ruined innocence? 13707 Whence did he come? |
13707 | Where has this mad fellow stolen that sacramental vessel? |
13707 | Where in this world, indeed? |
13707 | Where in this world,exclaimed Adam Forrester, despondingly,"shall we build our temple of happiness?" |
13707 | Where is the Lady Eleanore? |
13707 | Where is your great humbug? |
13707 | Who is this gray patriarch? |
13707 | Who is this insolent young fellow? |
13707 | Who is this man of thought and care, weary with world- wandering and heavy with disappointed hopes? 13707 Who is this venerable brother?" |
13707 | Who undid the door? |
13707 | Whose grand coach is this? |
13707 | Whose voice hast thou stolen for thy murmurs and miserable petitions, as if Lady Eleanore could be conscious of mortal infirmity? 13707 Why do I waste words on the fellow?" |
13707 | Why do you haunt me thus? |
13707 | Why do you look back? |
13707 | Why do you seek her now? 13707 Why do you tremble at me alone?" |
13707 | Why had that young man a stain of blood upon his ruff? |
13707 | Why should we seek farther for the site of our temple? |
13707 | Will not Your Excellency order out the guard? |
13707 | Wilt thou betray me? |
13707 | Wilt thou still worship the destroyer and surround her image with fantasies the more magnificent the more evil she has wrought? 13707 Would Your Excellency inquire further into the mystery of the pageant?" |
13707 | Would you forget your dead friends the moment they are under the sod? |
13707 | Wouldst thou hear more? |
13707 | Wretched lady,said the painter,"did I not warn you?" |
13707 | Wretched lunatic, what do you seek here? |
13707 | Yes,said she, blushing deeply; then, more gayly,"And what else have you brought me from beyond the sea?" |
13707 | You positively refuse to let me have this crazy old house, and the land under and adjoining, at the price named? |
13707 | Young man, what is your purpose? |
13707 | Am I not thy prophet?" |
13707 | And could such beings of cloudy fantasy, so near akin to nothingness, give valid evidence against him at the day of judgment? |
13707 | And did her beauty gladden me for that one moment and then die? |
13707 | And did she dwell there in utter loneliness? |
13707 | And had he found them? |
13707 | And has he sent for me at last? |
13707 | And the man? |
13707 | And were the Lily and her lover to be more fortunate than all those millions? |
13707 | And what are the haughtiest of us but the ephemeral aristocrats of a summer''s day? |
13707 | And what is time to the married of eternity?" |
13707 | And what means it?" |
13707 | And what news from Boston?" |
13707 | And what speak ye of James? |
13707 | And what the feast? |
13707 | And who are these on whom, and on all that appertains to them, the dust of earth seems never to have settled? |
13707 | And who was the Gray Champion? |
13707 | And will Death and Sorrow ever enter that proud mansion? |
13707 | And wilt thou sink beneath an affliction which happens alike to them that have their portion here below and to them that lay up treasure in heaven? |
13707 | And, after all, can such philosophy be true? |
13707 | Are the murderers apprehended? |
13707 | Are there any two living creatures who have so few sympathies that they can not possibly be friends? |
13707 | Are they spent amiss? |
13707 | Are we not all in darkness till the light doth shine upon us? |
13707 | Are you all satisfied? |
13707 | Are you quarrelling with the Old Scratch?" |
13707 | Are you ready for the lifting of the veil that shuts in time from eternity?" |
13707 | Are you telling me of a painter, or a wizard?" |
13707 | Art thou come to bear a valiant testimony as in former years? |
13707 | As we went on--""Have I not borne all this, and have I murmured?" |
13707 | At"Yet... profit?" |
13707 | But did the dead man laugh? |
13707 | But how is he to attain his ends? |
13707 | But what cares Annie for soldiers? |
13707 | But what dismal equipage now struggles along the uneven street? |
13707 | But what think ye now? |
13707 | But what was the wild throng that stood hand in hand about the Maypole? |
13707 | But where are the hulks and scattered timbers of sunken ships? |
13707 | But where is the Lady Eleanore?" |
13707 | But where was the Gray Champion? |
13707 | But where was the mermaid in those delightful times? |
13707 | But where would Annie find a partner? |
13707 | But why had she returned to him when their cold hearts shrank from each other''s embrace? |
13707 | But would it influence the event?" |
13707 | By her long communion with woe has she not forfeited her inheritance of immortal joy? |
13707 | Can I decline? |
13707 | Can it be that nobody caught sight of him? |
13707 | Could Mr. Hooper be fearful of her glance, that he so hastily caught back the black veil? |
13707 | Could it be that a footstep was now heard coming down the staircase of the old mansion which all conceived to have been so long untenanted? |
13707 | Did Annie ever read the cries of London city? |
13707 | Did he seek to hide it from the dread Being whom he was addressing? |
13707 | Did his broken spirit feel at that dread hour the tremendous burden of a people''s curse? |
13707 | Do ye touch bottom, my young friends? |
13707 | Do you believe it?" |
13707 | Do you not envy her, Elinor?" |
13707 | Do you not feel it so?" |
13707 | Do you remember any act of enormous folly at which you would blush even in the remotest cavern of the earth? |
13707 | Do you remember it? |
13707 | Do you see that bundle under his head?" |
13707 | Does any germ of bliss survive within her? |
13707 | Does he strive to be melancholy and gentlemanlike, or is he merely overcome by the heat? |
13707 | Doth he stand here among this multitude of people? |
13707 | Doubtless you know their purport?" |
13707 | Eh?" |
13707 | Eh?" |
13707 | Forget them? |
13707 | Had I created her? |
13707 | Had I ever heard that sweet, low tone? |
13707 | Had it passed away or faded into nothing? |
13707 | Had the changes of a lifetime been crowded into so brief a space, and were they now four aged people sitting with their old friend Dr. Heidegger? |
13707 | Has it been merely this? |
13707 | Has it talked for so many ages and meant nothing all the while? |
13707 | Hath he cast me down never to rise again? |
13707 | Hath he crushed my very heart in his hand?--And thou to whom I committed my child, how hast thou fulfilled thy trust? |
13707 | Have I not achieved it? |
13707 | Have men avoided me and women shown no pity and children screamed and fled only for my black veil? |
13707 | Have not I resolved within myself that the whole earth contains no fitter ornament for the great hall of my ancestral castle? |
13707 | Have not my musings melted into its rocky walls and sandy floor and made them a portion of myself? |
13707 | Have you been hanged, or not?" |
13707 | He often paused with his axe uplifted in the air, and said to himself,"Peter Goldthwaite, did you never strike this blow before?" |
13707 | He then added with his usual good- nature,"How can Cupid die when there are such pretty maidens in the Vineyard?" |
13707 | Heap of diseased mortality, why lurkest thou in my lady''s chamber?" |
13707 | Honestly, now, doctor, have you not stirred up the sober brains of some of your countrymen to enact a scene in our masquerade?" |
13707 | How came I among these wanderers? |
13707 | How came it in your mind too?" |
13707 | How could I ever reach her? |
13707 | How does Winter herald his approach? |
13707 | How does our worthy Governor Winthrop? |
13707 | How goes it, friend Peter?" |
13707 | How mean you, good sir, to enjoy the prize which you have been seeking the Lord knows how long among the Crystal Hills?" |
13707 | How shall the widow''s horror be represented? |
13707 | How, then, came the doomed victim here? |
13707 | If not sunshine, what can it be?" |
13707 | If the murder had not been committed till Tuesday night, who was the prophet that had foretold it in all its circumstances on Tuesday morning? |
13707 | Is Annie a literary lady? |
13707 | Is Mr. Higginbotham''s niece come out of her fainting- fits? |
13707 | Is he in doubt or in debt? |
13707 | Is he-- if the question be allowable-- in love? |
13707 | Is it accomplished? |
13707 | Is not little Annie afraid of such a tumult? |
13707 | Is not the kindred of a common fate a closer tie than that of birth? |
13707 | Is the doorkeeper asleep?" |
13707 | Is there not a deep moral in the tale? |
13707 | Is this a toyshop, or is it fairy- land? |
13707 | Is this like Elinor?" |
13707 | It was musical, but how should there be such music in my solitude? |
13707 | Kind patrons, will not you redeem the pledge of the New Year? |
13707 | May I rest its weight on you?" |
13707 | May I rest its weight on you?" |
13707 | Nevertheless, as slight differences are scarcely perceptible from a church- spire, one might be tempted to ask,"Which are the boys?" |
13707 | Not a soul would ask,''Who was he? |
13707 | Now think ye that I would have done this grievous wrong to my soul, body, reputation and estate, without a reasonable chance of profit?" |
13707 | Now, hoping no offence, I should like to know where this young gentleman may be going?" |
13707 | Now, think ye that I would have done this grievous wrong to my soul, body, reputation and estate without a reasonable chance of profit?" |
13707 | Now, what should an old woman wish for, when she can go but a step or two before she comes to her grave? |
13707 | Now, which of these slabs would you like best to see your own name upon?" |
13707 | Now, would you deem it possible that this rose of half a century could ever bloom again?" |
13707 | Of sunken ships and whereabouts they lie? |
13707 | Of what mysteries is it telling? |
13707 | Oh, when the deliverer came so near, in the dull anguish of her worn- out sympathies did she never long to cry,"Death, come in"? |
13707 | Or, in good truth, had a lovely girl with a warm heart and lips that would bear pressure stolen softly behind me and thrown her image into the spring? |
13707 | Perhaps little Annie would like to go? |
13707 | Peter?" |
13707 | Possibly, could it be made visible, it might prove a masterpiece of some great artist; else why has it so long held such a conspicuous place?" |
13707 | See how lightly he capers away again!--Jowler, did your worship ever have the gout? |
13707 | Shall I put these feelings into words?" |
13707 | Shall thy silken bridegroom suffer thy share of the penalty besides his own?" |
13707 | Shall we waken him?" |
13707 | She broke forth with sudden and irrepressible violence:"Tell me, man of cold heart, what has God done to me? |
13707 | Supposing the legend true, can this be other than the once proud Lady Eleanore? |
13707 | Take a passenger?" |
13707 | The boy has been baptized in blood; will ye keep the mark fresh and ruddy upon his forehead?" |
13707 | Then would she mark out the grave the scent of which would be perceptible on the pillow of the second bridal? |
13707 | Time-- where man lives not-- what is it but eternity? |
13707 | Unhang the old gentleman? |
13707 | Was he not alive within five years, and did he not, in token of our long friendship, bequeath me his gold- headed cane and a mourning- ring?" |
13707 | Was her existence absorbed in nature''s loveliest phenomenon, and did her pure frame dissolve away in the varied light? |
13707 | Was it an illusion? |
13707 | Was it delusion? |
13707 | Was it not for liberty to worship God according to our conscience?" |
13707 | Was it not for the enjoyment of our civil rights? |
13707 | Was it worth while to rear this massive edifice to be a desert in the heart of the town and populous only for a few hours of each seventh day? |
13707 | Was not Martha wedded in her teens to David Tomkins, who won her girlish love and long enjoyed her affection as a wife? |
13707 | Was not her white form fading into the moonlight? |
13707 | Was not his own the form in which that Destiny had embodied itself, and he a chief agent of the coming evil which he had foreshadowed? |
13707 | Was she the daughter of my fancy, akin to those strange shapes which peep under the lids of children''s eyes? |
13707 | Was the King of Terrors more awful in those days than in our own, that wisdom and philosophy have been able to produce this change? |
13707 | Was the old fellow actually murdered two or three nights ago by an Irishman and a nigger?" |
13707 | Were we not like ghosts? |
13707 | What but the mystery which it obscurely typifies has made this piece of crape so awful? |
13707 | What cares the world for that? |
13707 | What clouds are gathering in the golden west with direful intent against the brightness and the warmth of this summer afternoon? |
13707 | What does old Esther''s joy portend?" |
13707 | What has she to do with weddings? |
13707 | What have we to do with England?" |
13707 | What have we to do with this mitred prelate-- with this crowned king? |
13707 | What have you been about during your sojourn in this part of infinite space?" |
13707 | What heart could resist him? |
13707 | What if Remorse should assume the features of an injured friend? |
13707 | What if he should stand at your bed''s foot in the likeness of a corpse with a bloody stain upon the shroud? |
13707 | What if the fiend should come in woman''s garments with a pale beauty amid sin and desolation, and lie down by your side? |
13707 | What if this embassy should bring me the message of my fate?" |
13707 | What is guilt? |
13707 | What is his purpose? |
13707 | What is the mystery in my heart?" |
13707 | What is there for me but your decay and death? |
13707 | What made him hide it so snug, Tabby?" |
13707 | What miracle shall set all things right again? |
13707 | What news from the camp- meeting at Stamford?" |
13707 | What other shelter is there for old Esther Dudley save the province- house or the grave?" |
13707 | What saith the people''s orator? |
13707 | What say you, again?" |
13707 | What sort of a man was Wakefield? |
13707 | What to me is the outcry of a mob in this remote province of the realm? |
13707 | What were you thinking of?" |
13707 | What''s the latest news at Parker''s Falls?" |
13707 | What, then, in sober earnest, were the delusive treasures of the chest? |
13707 | What, then? |
13707 | Whence come they? |
13707 | Whence comes that stifled laughter? |
13707 | Where do they build their nests and seek their food? |
13707 | Where would be Death''s triumph if none lived to weep? |
13707 | Wherefore have all other adventurers sought the prize in vain but that I might win it and make it a symbol of the glories of our lofty line? |
13707 | Wherefore have we come hither to set up our own tombstones in a wilderness? |
13707 | Wherefore, I say again, have we sought this country of a rugged soil and wintry sky? |
13707 | Whither did the wanderer go?'' |
13707 | Who are the choristers? |
13707 | Who but the fiend and his bond- slaves the crew of Merry Mount had thus disturbed them? |
13707 | Who can this old man be?" |
13707 | Who has not heard their name? |
13707 | Who heeds the poor organ- grinder? |
13707 | Who knows but I may take a glimpse at myself and see whether all''s right?" |
13707 | Who reared it? |
13707 | Who shall enslave us here? |
13707 | Who stands guard here? |
13707 | Whom had my heart recognized, that it throbbed so? |
13707 | Why should not an old man be merry too, when the great sea is at play with those little children? |
13707 | Why should we follow Fancy through the whole series of those awful pictures? |
13707 | Why will they disturb my pious meditations? |
13707 | Why, at least, did no smile of welcome brighten upon his face? |
13707 | Will she ever feel the night- wind and the rain? |
13707 | Will you meet me there? |
13707 | With that sentiment gushing from my soul, might I not leave all the rest to him? |
13707 | Would it not be so among the dead? |
13707 | Would you go to the sole home that is left you? |
13707 | Would you have me wait till the mob shall sack the province- house as they did my private mansion? |
13707 | Yet why should it be so? |
13707 | You are repairing the old house, I suppose, making a new one of it? |
13707 | asked Dr. Heidegger,"which Ponce de Leon, the Spanish adventurer, went in search of two or three centuries ago?" |
13707 | cried Mr. Brown, again;"what the devil are you about there, that I hear such a racket whenever I pass by? |
13707 | cried old Gascoigne;"is the stream yet pure from the stain of the murderer''s hands?" |
13707 | have you already asked yourselves that question?" |
13707 | inquired he of the domestic; then, recollecting himself,"Your master and mistress-- are they at home?" |
13707 | or"Peter, what need of tearing the whole house down? |
13707 | or, rather,"Which the men?" |
13707 | said Colonel Killigrew, who believed not a word of the doctor''s story;"and what may be the effect of this fluid on the human frame?" |
13707 | where the corpses and skeletons of seamen who went down in storm and battle? |
13707 | where the corroded cannon? |
13707 | where the treasures that old Ocean hoards? |
13707 | will she die? |
13707 | you do not fear to sit beneath the gallows on a new- made grave, and yet you tremble at a friend''s touch? |
