38389''Where has he been so long? 38389 ''Who are you?''
38389''Who succeeds the sultan? 38389 ''Why,''said she,''is he not one of us?
38389After throwing over his shoulders his_ robe de chambre_, Mr. Bennett asked:''Where do you think Livingstone is?'' 38389 And is he now stopping at Ujiji?"
38389Are raids of this kind frequent?
38389Did you know him?
38389Eh-- eh?
38389How is he dressed?
38389How long is he going to stay there?
38389Is he young or old?
38389Is it necessary for me to proceed further to teach you?
38389Shaw, did you fire?
38389The following conversation occurred between myself and a Wagogo trader:''Who do you suppose made your parents?''
38389Was he ever there before?
38389Was it Providence or luck? 38389 What could a man have exaggerated of these facts?
38389What do you mean?
38389What is this?
38389Where has he come from?
38389Who fired that gun?
38389''Cast off,''the little master said,''nothing will happen; am I not here?''
38389''Will you hush?''
38389At this moment an Arab, who had approached from behind, struck up the wretch''s gun and exclaimed,"Man, how dare you point your gun at the master?"
38389But the great wonder of all was,''How did you come from Unyanyembe?''
38389But this-- where is the nobleman''s park that can match this scene?
38389But what would Livingstone do locked up at Ujiji?
38389But why should I feel as if baited by these stupid, slow- witted Arabs, and their warnings and croakings?
38389Could he get canoes-- could he surmount difficulties that neither Livingstone nor Cameron were able to overcome?
38389Did I not well remember my first bitter experience in African jungles, when in the maritime region?
38389Do you know that the Suez Canal is a fact-- is opened and a regular trade carried on between Europe and India through it?''
38389Do you know that you are my servant, sir, not my companion?"
38389Do you know why?
38389Do you mean me to go to Central Africa?''
38389Do you realize where you are?
38389Does he not bring plenty of cloth and beads?
38389Halting, I asked what was the matter, and what they wanted, and why they made such a noise?
38389Has he not taken possession of your soil, in that he has put his horse into your ground without your permission?
38389Have I uttered a prayer?
38389Have you considered well your position?
38389Have you never seen the effect of water thrown upon lime?
38389He snatched his revolver and rushed out from the tent, and asked the men around the watch- fires,"Who shot?"
38389He was spared the stormy scenes we went through afterwards in our war with the Waturn: and who knows how much he has been saved from?
38389How can they all be brought out of here?
38389How long, I wonder, had it remained at Unyanyembe, had I not been dispatched into Central Africa in search of the great traveler?
38389How many beads?
38389How many pigeons as carriers?
38389How many soldiers?
38389How much cloth?
38389How much wire?
38389I suppose you have heard of the New York_ Herald_?"
38389Instead of doing so, he exclaimed, in an insulting tone,"What dog''s meat is this?"
38389Is he not a thief?''
38389Is he the eldest son?''
38389Is there really no way of getting a satisfactory, true explanation of all this?
38389It occurred thus: The poor fellow asked,"Will the master give his slave liberty to speak?"
38389Kingaru--"Why?"
38389Livingstone, I presume?''
38389Livingstone?''
38389Livingstone?''
38389No, he could not give it up, but what then-- fight one against four, all armed with muskets, to retain it?
38389No; tell me the general news; how is the world getting along?''
38389Now you may ask how came these once solid rocks, which are now but skeletons of hills and stony heaps, to be thus split into so many fragments?
38389On my side I may ask, what have you been doing?
38389On yours you may ask, and what have you been doing?
38389That one man fixed his destiny for this world, and who knows but for the eternal ages?
38389The first things to decide were: How much money is required?
38389The question each one kept asking himself was, how long will this last and when shall we see smooth water again?
38389Then turning to Stanley, he said:"Was he not a very good man?"
38389Therefore have I come to ask you who gave you permission to use my soil for a burying- ground?"
38389This enraged them, and they walked backward and forward like angry tom- cats, shouting,"Are the Wagogo to be beaten like slaves?"
38389This was natural, for Stanley had already won fame there, and why should he not win still greater laurels in the same field?
38389W. M.--"How many fighting men have you?"
38389W. M.--"How many soldiers have you?"
38389W. M.--"The great, great chief?"
38389W. M.--"Why do you come and make trouble, then?"
38389Was he, indeed, so near this great inland sea, of which Ujiji was the chief harbor?
38389What about?
38389What could I do but lift up my face toward the pure, glowing sky, and cry,''God be thanked?''"
38389What did these dumb witnesses relate to me?
38389What else?''
38389What happy influence was it that restrained me from destroying all those concerned in it?
38389What is there to fear?
38389What kinds of cloth is required for the different tribes?
38389What-- who is there?
38389When saw you a road so wide?
38389Where do you suppose your father has gone to, now that he is dead?''
38389Who are they, that they should be compared to white men?
38389Why can not your black women do the same?
38389Why should he not be happy?
38389Why, what''s the matter?"
38389Would I be right in leaving them to their fate?
38389Would it not be consigning them all to ruin?
38389Would they ever return?
38389You surely would not leave them, and they can not travel?''
38389and''Where have you been all this long time?
38389carriers for what?''
38389did you fire that shot?"
38389is Dr. Livingstone here?''
38389said he, suddenly awakening;"me?--me fire?
38389was the terrible question Stanley was perpetually putting to himself, and if not, what desperate movement should he attempt?
38389we mutually asked questions of one another, such as:''How did you come here?''
60328''What was the cause of your war, Mirambo, with the Arabs?"
60328''A white man, or a Turk?'' 60328 ''Ah,''said he, breathlessly, and looking up,''did he come from above?''
60328''And do you believe, Frank, that you are in Manyema now?'' 60328 ''Are they good eating?''
60328''But what do you think, Frank? 60328 ''Can a man contend with God?
60328''Did you know the old white man? 60328 ''Do you hear him, Arabs?
60328''Do you think you can settle all this, if we commission you?'' 60328 ''Eh, do you hear that?''
60328''I am the king, and how can you pass through my country without paying me?'' 60328 ''Is she quite well?
60328''Leave off talking, men,''said Muini Pembé,''and allow others to speak, wo n''t you? 60328 ''Oh, do we not see that you have met your friends, and all these days we have felt that you will shortly leave us?''
60328''Rum?'' 60328 ''Sokos from the forest?''
60328''Speak, my friend; what is it the Mundelé can give you?'' 60328 ''Then what am I to do?''
60328''Well, Frank, what was the matter?'' 60328 ''Well, Mabruki, tell me, did you see your mother?''
60328''What do you say to Lake Lincoln, Lake Kamolondo, Lake Bemba, and all that part, down to the Zambezi?'' 60328 ''What is it?''
60328''What shall we do,''he asked,''to welcome him?'' 60328 ''What then?
60328''Where has he gone to?'' 60328 ''Which do you think best, Stamlee-- Karagwé or Uganda?''
60328''Who are these?'' 60328 ''Who told you so?''
60328''Why not call itStanley Pool,"and these cliffs Dover Cliffs?
60328''Why should you ask, master? 60328 ''Why?''
60328''Will they sell us food?'' 60328 ''Would you eat one if you had one now?''
60328After that I had a very good mind to come back to America and say, like the Queen of Uganda,''There, what did I tell you?'' 60328 And ca n''t Emin Pasha get away from where he is?"
60328And what did his people do without water?
60328Are you sure about the mention of the high mountains in that Portuguese book?
60328Did Mr. Stanley visit Alexandra Lake and find out what streams flowed into it?
60328Did he get to the summit of the mountain?
60328Did he go back to King Mtesa''s capital,asked one of the listeners,"or continue his journey another way?"
60328Did he know anything about geography outside of his own country?
60328Do all the wild animals of Africa observe this rule?
60328Do they hunt him with anything else than guns?
60328Does the gorilla walk erect like man, or on all- fours like the other members of the ape family?
60328Have n''t I read of lions watching by the roadside and killing men and women without provocation?
60328Hitherto they had called us Wasambye; we were now called Wajiwa( people of the sun? 60328 How did he do it?"
60328How did it happen that he ventured there?
60328How did they go from Zanzibar to Mombasa?
60328How do they get up their hunting expeditions?
60328How is that?
60328I was received by the Paris Geographical Society, and it was then I began to feel,''Well, after all, I have done something, have n''t I?'' 60328 If the old chief appeared so unprepossessing, how can I paint without offence my humbler brothers and sisters who stood round us?
60328In a composed and consequential tone he asked,''Know you I am the king of this country?'' 60328 Is a lion more dangerous than an elephant in a case of this kind?"
60328Safeni and Baraka turned to me triumphantly, and asked,''What did we say, master?'' 60328 Uledi, coming forward, impetuously asked,''What does this old man want, master?''
60328Was nothing known about the gorilla until Mr. Du Chaillu hunted him?
60328What can you tell us about Masai Land?
60328What do you think of the relation of the gorilla to man?
60328What is he going to Africa for now?
60328What is the nationality of Emin?
60328What would we not have given for a pair of shoes apiece? 60328 When the chief came to see me, I said to him,"''Why is it, my friend, that your name goes about the country as being that of a bad man?
60328Why did the king wish to put him to death?
60328''Are we bushmen?''
60328''For cloth?''
60328''For cowries?''
60328''For wire?''
60328''Not for rewards and extra pay?''
60328''What do you think it is, Msenna?''
60328''What is it, my friends?
60328''What will you do?
60328''Wo n''t we Kachéché?''
60328''Would any one volunteer to accompany me?''
60328(_ From a Photograph by Mr. Phillips, of Kabinda._)]"''Do you wish to see Zanzibar, boys?''
60328(_ From a Photograph by Mr. Stanley._)]"Are there any other falls on the Victoria Nile besides the Ripon Falls just mentioned?"
60328After asking various questions as to who I was, where I came from, and whither I was going, the Masai leader inquired,''Had we any sickness?''
60328And shall we fire guns, Stamlee?''
60328And what is there to do?''
60328Are you all ready, and do you think you can do it?
60328Are you not our father?''
60328Are you ready, your guns and revolvers loaded, and your ears open this time?''
60328Back to Africa?
60328Baraka held his hands palms outward, asking, with serene benignity,''What, my friends, ails you?
60328Besides, if we leave here without food, where shall we obtain it?''
60328But food?
60328But what rude blast can visit these imprisoned shades?
60328Cameron?"
60328Could I complain?
60328Did we love them because, from being hunted by our kind, and ostracized from communities of men, we had come to regard them as our homes?
60328Do n''t you think we could explore to the east of Cameron''s road?''
60328Do they not?
60328Do you fear empty hands and smiling people like us?
60328Does he not speak well?
60328Edwin Arnold, the author of''The Light of Asia,''said,''Do you think you can do all this?''
60328Had he done so, he would have been eaten, for what could he have done?
60328How came they to be on board the man- of- war?
60328How does it happen that later travellers have found the country so much more difficult of access?"
60328How does she look?
60328How is it that this poor Arab has had to pay so much for going through Ubagwé?
60328I hear he is dead?''
60328I wonder if the art grew by perceiving nature''s fashion and mould of his country?
60328If it is agreeable to the white man, will he send words of peace to Mirambo?''
60328In reply to an eager remark which I made, he asked:"''Could you, and would you, complete the work?
60328Is Ubagwé Unyamwezi, that Ungomirwa demands so much from the Arabs?
60328Is it not so?''
60328Meanwhile, where should we apply for food?
60328Now, where is there in all the pagan world a more promising field for a mission than Uganda?
60328Nyama of what?''
60328Or will you, to whom I have been so kind, whom I love as I would love my children, will you bind me, and take me back by force?
60328STODDARD.--WHO WAS PAUL GRAYSON?
60328Safeni asked of one of them,''Why do you do that?''
60328Shall I and my white brother go alone?
60328Shall I ever forget him?
60328Shall a man refuse meat?''
60328Speak, Arabs?
60328Speak, Wangwana, and show me those who dare follow me?''
60328The gray parrots with crimson tails here also first began to abound, and the hoarse growl of the fierce and shy''soko''( gorilla?)
60328The king recollected these facts, and said,''You will stop to fight Mirambo, will you not?''
60328The lake was so large it would take years to trace its shores, and who then at the end of that time would remain alive?''
60328Then why further spend needlessly vast sums upon black pagans of Africa who have no example of their own people becoming Christians before them?
60328They replied,''sokos''--chimpanzees(?).
60328U- Kutu, land of ears( long ears?).
60328Under such circumstances what prospect of exploration had we?
60328Was he not a good man?''
60328Was he your father?''
60328Was it a spirit, the Wazimu of all Uganda, more propitious to their enemy''s prayers than those of the Wavuma?
60328Was it from gratitude at the security they afforded us from the ruthless people of these regions?
60328Was it not I, by means of that little compass which could not lie like the guide?''
60328Was the expedition to end here?
60328Were they slaves-- or what?
60328Were we to continue our journey through Uhha, that land which, in 1871, had consumed at the rate of two bales of cloth per diem?
60328What arrested the twanging bow and the deadly trigger of the cannibals?
60328What can you be thinking of?
60328What did she say when she saw her son such a great strong lad?
60328What had they seen?
60328What has Ungomirwa to say to his friend?''
60328What is there to fear?
60328What kind of thing is this Nyama of the forest?''
60328What right had Mkasiwa or the Arabs to say what I ought to do?
60328What river is this?''
60328What shall we do?
60328What should we do when all were gone?
60328What should we do with our sadly weakened force, were we to experience the same horrible scenes again?
60328What were Tata, Meginna, Uregga, Usongora Meno, and such uncouth names to me?
60328When did you journey along a path like this?
60328When saw you a road so wide?
60328When the door opened she cried out,"Who?"
60328Where are my young men, with hearts of lions?
60328Where had they been?
60328Where is So- and- so?
60328Whither should we turn for it?"
60328Whither?
60328Who could doubt a pacific conclusion to the negotiations?
60328Who fears death?
60328Who was dead?
60328Why not attempt the carriage of this ivory to the Congo?
60328Why not build them?''
60328Why?
60328Will the master eat us?''
60328Will you go back and tell my friends that you left me in this wild spot, and cast me adrift to die?
60328Will you let me go alone?''
60328Will you make peace and submit to Mtesa, or shall we blow up the island?
60328Would I, could I, sell it to them?
60328Would they?''
60328Yet what could they be?
60328You have gone beyond Nyangwé to the other sea?
60328You remember King Mtesa of Uganda, whom Mr. Stanley converted to Christianity and who asked that missionaries should be sent to instruct his people?
60328You remember while going to Ujiji I permitted the guide to show the way, but when we were returning who was it that led the way?
60328and of the things around their necks-- brain of mice, skin of viper,''adder''s fork, and blind worm''s sting?''
60328and would it please you if I accompanied you to Zanzibar?''
60328he lived here, did he?''
60328queried Fred;"and why is he sometimes called Emin Bey and sometimes Emin Pasha?"
32877Ah, Monkey, why are you so cruel? 32877 Ah, has thy wife had a child lately?
32877Ah, is that you, Lion? 32877 And art thou clever at it?"
32877And how do you name the victor?
32877And how, Naku, dost thou propose to act? 32877 And if I do this, what will you do for me?"
32877And if you lose, what will be the forfeit?
32877And what follows it?
32877And what is that?
32877And what may that be, greedy one?
32877And where did he live?
32877And where do you all sleep?
32877And who is Gumbi?
32877Are you Lion?
32877Are you the rogue who killed our child?
32877Black is it?
32877But are you so much cleverer than you have already shown yourself? 32877 But do you know that it strikes me that she is very fat?"
32877But do you think these things of which you talk are true?
32877But is it in the direction of sunrise, or sunset, is it north or is it south of here?
32877But is it possible to reach the moon in this manner?
32877But whither shall we fly, my son?
32877But whose child is it?
32877But,said Salimba,"why should you wish to kill him, when we have enough meat still with us?
32877Do you also wish to fight?
32877Do you doubt it?
32877Do you mean to say that you do not envy me my regal dignity and strength?
32877Dost thou think she will be kind to me?
32877Eh? 32877 Excellent, O Bateta; and what may the next be?"
32877Go to the Soko( Gorilla? 32877 How can I tell thee that?
32877How could an elephant understand our wishes?
32877How is this, Sebwana? 32877 I do n''t know; but you have always been good to me, and you surely would not refuse me this favour, father?"
32877I, Jackal? 32877 Is his ma not dead then?"
32877Is she?
32877Is this Bungandu?
32877Is_ that_ all?
32877Miserable,he cried,"what hast thou done?"
32877Now, friend Buffalo, what sayest thou?
32877Pardon, mighty Leopardess, but let me ask how do you propose to slay me?
32877Then what is the object of such a story?
32877Then why does it not suck?
32877Thine?
32877We heard them, of course,replied Baruti, with an indignant look;"for how could Kassim or I imagine such things?
32877Well, but I am Gumbi myself, and how canst thou be my daughter?
32877Well, my friends, do you hear what Mugassa says?
32877Well, sister Crane, I hope you are all right this morning?
32877Well,said Serpent, languidly,"what is it that you wish me to do?"
32877What can that be?
32877What do you mean by that?
32877What do you mean, Parrot?
32877What do you mean?
32877What dost thou want?
32877What is it you say, my son, you want the moon?
32877What is that?
32877What is the matter, my friend?
32877What may this change portend, O Bateta?
32877What may this tiny thing be that is so dreadful?
32877What thing is that which I may not call my own, when I see it-- and what is it that is not in the king''s power to give me?
32877What work canst thou do?
32877What-- you mean about the disposing of my old ma?
32877What? 32877 What?
32877Where are you taking that cow to?
32877Where are you, Jackal?
32877Where is Jackal? 32877 Where is Jackal?"
32877Where is this Serpent that will fight with me?
32877Who art thou?
32877Why are you standing there looking at me in that way?
32877Why do you want to know?
32877Why, miserable slave, how else should I kill you but with one scratch of my claws?
32877Why, what ails thee, Kimyera?
32877Why, what can be the matter with the brute, trifling with me in this manner? 32877 Why, what is the matter?"
32877Why, what kind of a story is this, that finishes in that way?
32877Will you match it against my strength?
32877Yes, I am; and who are you that do not know me?
32877Yes,replied Terrapin,"here I am, and you-- how do you feel now?
32877You give it up, do you?
32877You killed my ma, did you not?
32877Ah, but it is a cruel death, though, is it not?"
32877And what next?"
32877Another question he gave me was,"What is it that looks both ways when you pass it?"
32877Are we not partners?"
32877Are ye all asleep?
32877Art thou not our brother?"
32877At it again, eh?"
32877But how is your family to- day?"
32877But what may that be which is secured in thy girdle?"
32877But what will you give me if you lose?"
32877But where is yours?
32877But, Rabbit, you who are always wise, tell me how I may avenge myself?"
32877By- the- bye, what about that trade you proposed to me?"
32877Come, Ma Lion, had you not better try now, just to see if you wo n''t have better luck?
32877Did not her father welcome her, and pardon the mother for very joy?
32877Did not the girl find her father?
32877Did not the old woman warn them of what would happen, and point to them how they might live in peace once again?
32877Did you ever burn a dog before that you know the smell of its burnt body so well?"
32877Did you ever see the likes of me before?
32877Did you not hear him say he would carry you?"
32877Did you not hear me ask you to say it was mine?
32877Did you not succeed after all?"
32877Do get it for me at once, wo n''t you?"
32877Do you hear?
32877Do you not know yet that I live only for your sake?
32877Do you not think that I am very strong?
32877Has he not yet returned?
32877Have you no sense?
32877Have you not heard of the feast he is about to give?
32877He then asked me,"What is it that is bone outside and meat within?"
32877How are the little ones?"
32877How do you do to- day?"
32877How do you do, Lion?"
32877How likest thou its fragrance?"
32877How many fingers hast thou?"
32877How may I dare to again face my companions after my proud boast before them of your might and goodness?
32877How may you be able to perform what you promise?"
32877How shall we be ever able to reach it?"
32877How would a little fellow like me have the courage to go so far from home if it were not that I am on service for Mugassa?
32877I heard it first when on a visit to Gabunga''s; but who can tell it like him?
32877I wonder what you will say to my plan?
32877If I promise that I will never speak of you to any person again, will you help me more than you have done, if I am in distress?"
32877Is it not a heavy one?
32877Know you not that I am the strongest of all who dwell in the forest or wilderness?
32877May it not be that they will ask,` who is this stranger that he should reign over us?''
32877May we not go shares and eat a little bit?
32877Mugema, was ever anybody''s luck like this of ours?
32877Munu, Munu, Munu, why do you doubt me?"
32877My own mother, too?"
32877One was,"What is it that always goes straight ahead, and never looks back?"
32877Shall I help you?"
32877Tell me why is this?"
32877The Goat said to the Lion:"Well, now, my friend, where do you come from this day?"
32877The bales were set down on the ground, and then their friend asked of Dudu and his wife--"Know you where you are?"
32877The people belonged to her also, as well as their corn, and who could object to Wanyana''s cattle eating Wanyana''s corn?
32877The woman upon seeing the body, stopped and asked,"What is the meaning of this?"
32877Then Jackal turned to Dog, on recovering from his astonishment, and angrily asked,"Oh, Dog, do you know what you are doing?
32877Then how can you say that I killed her?"
32877They began their conversation by the Terrapin asking:"How is your family to- day, Miss Crane?"
32877To Mugassa?
32877To which of you does it belong?"
32877Upon this he resolved to go himself, and when he met her he asked--"Who art thou, child?"
32877Vexed and annoyed, Elephant cried angrily to Rabbit,"Why did you not answer as I told you?
32877Was not her own choice of a husband found for her?
32877Was not the young chief fortunate in possessing such a beautiful wife?
32877What can I do now?"
32877What can Kimyera do for Queen Naku?''
32877What do you say now to making another bargain?"
32877What do you want?"
32877What may be my father''s name, mother?"
32877What say you?"
32877What sayest thou?
32877What shall I do?"
32877What will you do?"
32877What work, O Serpent?"
32877What would they say, however, if they really knew how very sagacious I am?
32877What?
32877When have I chatted about you?
32877When shall it be?"
32877When she was seated, she cried out,"Come, Dudu, what are you looking at?
32877Where are you going with that cow?
32877Who will assist me now?"
32877Whose is it?"
32877Why did you not put that in the story?"
32877Why didst thou not do as the soothsayer commanded thee?
32877Why do n''t you step right in?
32877Why do you stand guard over me to prevent my escape?"
32877Why not have stayed at home instead of wandering into strange lands of which they knew nothing?
32877Why should they have become discontented?
32877Will ye not let a poor benighted stranger in?
32877You confess it then?
32877You remember the rubber, do n''t you?
32877am I not strong, Ma Lion?
32877and they will be wroth with me and try to slay me?"
32877cried Jackal,"do you hear that?
32877do you hear?
32877dropped the goat for an instant and said,"Ah, it is you, my false friend, is it?
32877shall we rear the child, or leave it here to perish?"
32877that when I roar all who hear me bow down their heads, and shrink in fear?"
32877to whom does it belong?"
43654And I suppose you will ask me next how does it affect your personal interests? 43654 And you-- you are the only one left?"
43654But tell me, Mr. Stanley, how long do you suppose it will be before we meet?
43654But what would be the fate of thousands of people who have remained loyal on the Upper Nile? 43654 By whom?"
43654Carriers for what?
43654Dead? 43654 Did the others?"
43654Do you allow only 100 left? 43654 Failing the King of the Belgians, who else will undertake your support and maintenance, befitting your station and necessity?
43654For surely, dear master,he said,"after the longest night comes day, and why not sunshine after darkness with us?
43654Had any of them heard of Muta, or Luta Nzige?
43654Have you anything to say before I pass the word?
43654Have you anything to say before the word is given?
43654How many hours to the next village?
43654If you stay here during life, what becomes of the provinces afterwards? 43654 Know ye not one village or country beyond here?"
43654May I suggest then, Pasha, if you elect to remain here, that you make your will?
43654Muini Sumai told me that one of Sanga''s women was beating the drum when the Major came up, and the Major went to the house saying''Who is that?'' 43654 Nay,"said one in reply, mockingly,"do n''t you also see the lake, and the steamer, and that Pasha whom we seek?"
43654Not one; how should I?
43654Now supposing you resolve to stay, what of the Egyptians?
43654Now which would you personally prefer doing? 43654 Now, my man, have you anything to say to us before you join your brother who died yesterday?"
43654Of Unyoro?
43654Of a great water near Unyoro?
43654Really,I said;"Why?"
43654Shall Mazamboni be a son of''Bula Matari?''
43654Shall there be true peace between us and the strangers?
43654That is very true,replied the Pasha;"but supposing the men surround me and detain me by force?"
43654The Ituri, you mean?
43654The Ituri?
43654Unyoro? 43654 Well"--here there was a little hesitation--"do you remember when Mr.----, of the India Office, introduced me to you?
43654Well, Sir Evelyn,I said,"do you not think that there are as clever men in England as Messrs. Schweinfurth and Junker?
43654Well, do you begin to understand why I have been sweet, and good, and liberal to Tippu- Tib? 43654 Well, now, say do you think Tippu- Tib will keep his contract, and bring his 600 people?"
43654Well, what are they?
43654Well, what can we do else than kill those who are trying to kill us? 43654 Were you all equally desirous to be on the road?"
43654Were you not burning to be off from Yambuya?
43654What is he doing there, in the name of goodness?
43654What land is this? 43654 What makes you think so, particularly now?"
43654What would you, unruly men?
43654Which is the way, guide?
43654Which way, sir?
43654Who else, then, will be so quixotic as to cast a covetous eye on these Provinces? 43654 Why,"said they,"who can gather bananas if they are continually watched and told to''Fall in, fall in?''"
43654Why? 43654 Why?"
43654You still think, then, that in some way Major Barttelot is the cause of this delay?
43654-----[ I] Was he very unfortunate?
43654A hundred-- two hundred-- three hundred miles?
43654About 200 yards from the village we stopped paddling, and as I saw a great number of strangers on the shore, I asked,"Whose men are you?"
43654Ah, but we have seen a thing to- day that our fathers never saw, eh?"
43654And disloyal to whom?"
43654And how far is the Nyanza?"
43654And if 60 rations can only be procured for 146 people by the State authorities, how were we to supply 750 people?
43654And of the gallant band of Englishmen?
43654And supposing you reach the sea, what will you do then?
43654Are you now satisfied?"
43654Besides, may I ask you if, with your recent experience, you think it likely that communication could be kept open at reasonable cost?"
43654But can black men, the"brutes,""niggers,""black devils,"feel so?
43654But was there an effective Government?
43654But what does it matter to you if he does not come within twenty days?
43654But why need we say over again what I have already said?
43654By the way of the Ituri?
43654Can it be possible that we are near the end of this forest hell?"
43654Could I possibly leave you here, with my knowledge of what they are capable of-- alone?
43654Could I, could anybody suggest anything else?"
43654Did Dr. Junker report you correctly, Pasha?"
43654Do n''t the natives know their own country better?
43654Do they not all say that all the world is covered with trees and thick bush?
43654Dost thou not remember the crocodile?"
43654During your lifetime?
43654Eight years I believe you said?
43654Fever?"
43654For if you have no rifles left, or ammunition, can you march either forward or backward?"
43654For what does it matter after all?
43654Had they ever heard of such a man?
43654Has he then altered his mind about the Victoria?
43654Have I said well, oh, warriors?"
43654Have you not told me over and over again that you are burning to accompany us, that you would infinitely prefer marching to waiting here?
43654He also said that his raiders had gone eastward a month''s journey, and had seen from a high hill( Kassololo?
43654He asks me to banish(?)
43654How can they all be brought out of here?
43654How could it be otherwise with the pioneers''shouts, cries, noise of cutting and crushing, and pounding of trees, the murmur of a large caravan?
43654How could the Arabs of Ujiji resist the Wajiji and Warundi, or how could those of Unyamyembé live among the bowmen and spearmen of Unyamwezi?
43654How dead?
43654How do you like it?"
43654How far does the forest reach inland?
43654How far was it permissible for me to deviate from my course?
43654However, will you leave the Pool?
43654I remember the circumstance well?"
43654I shook hands with all, and asked which was Emin Pasha?
43654I turn to Mr. Bonny, and ask,"Were you not all anxious to be at work?"
43654I wonder if any one will minister unto us?"
43654If he with his 4000 soldiers appealed for help, what could we effect with 173?
43654If not, what had occurred?
43654Is it all in his stomach?
43654Is it no hoax?
43654Is it not the fear of this desertion that was one of the reasons I chose the Congo?
43654Now tell me, who would you wish for your second?"
43654One asked my servant with a grim smile,"Did you say the other day that you believed there was much honey in these brown paper nests of the wasps?
43654Or perhaps you meditate leaving it to Nubar Pasha?"
43654Pressing his hand, I said,"Well, Bonny, how are you?
43654Say that you reach the Congo, and are nearing civilization; how will you maintain your people, for food must then be bought for money or goods?
43654Scores of voices would cry out,"Wherein lies this fellow''s merit?
43654See, is not my body a ruin?"
43654She cried out,"It is true, then?
43654Sick, I suppose?"
43654The King of the Belgians?
43654The Parasite echoed,"Where are you going?"
43654The age of miracles is past, it is said, but why should they be?
43654The fifth rain of this month began at 8 A.M. Had we not enough afflictions without this perpetual rain?
43654The first Speaker said,"Hey, strangers, where are you going?"
43654The men crowded up the slope eagerly with inquiring open- eyed looks, which, before they worded their thoughts, we knew meant"Is it true?
43654The pioneers halted, reflecting, and remarking somewhat after this manner:"What does this mean?
43654They asked,"How can the master tell?
43654They said, with solemn shaking of their heads,"Know you that such and such a man is dead?
43654Tippu- Tib opened his eyes and snapped them rapidly, as his custom is, and asked,"Me?"
43654Troup?"
43654Was the man deaf and dumb?
43654Well, what do you think of the honey now?
43654Well, where is Jameson?"
43654What are these doing?
43654What are they?
43654What can it be made of?
43654What could I have possibly said that was any way peculiar to cling to your memory like this?
43654What could possibly have happened except wholesale desertion caused by some misunderstanding between the officers and men?
43654What did he say to you before you left him?"
43654What did such names convey to dull senses and blank minds?
43654What do you say?"

43654What does the field hand want on the Continent?
43654What for?"
43654What had the Government officials to offer?
43654What is such a sum to a man about to be shelved?
43654What men are these?
43654What nameless horrors awaited them further on none could conjecture?
43654What ought we to say of Hicks?
43654What position remains for the methodical, business- like, and zealous Mr. John Rose Troup?
43654What possible chance could Tippu- Tib, Abed bin Salim, Ugarrowwa and Kilonga- Longa have against the Basongora and Bakusu?
43654What remains for the faithful Jameson,"whose alacrity, capacity, and willingness to work are unbounded,"to do?
43654What right has he to the honour of a shroud and a burial?"
43654What then?
43654What was said that was in any way peculiar?"
43654What will the Egyptian Government think of my conduct in venturing to treat of such a matter?"
43654What would the Government do with such a mass of people?
43654When do you think all this will happen?
43654When has this self- interest of the people been cultivated or fostered?
43654Whence are they?"
43654Whence do they come?"
43654Where are the sentries?
43654Where are these fifty dollar men?"
43654Where is the Major?
43654Where is the promising, intelligent, and capable Ward?
43654Which of them has seen grass?
43654Which way did you come here?
43654While they shot their arrows, and crept nearer to their intended victims, they cried,"_ Ku- la- la heh lelo?_"--"Where will you sleep to- night?
43654Who ever heard of good people coming from that direction?
43654Who is your chief?
43654Who will assist you to convey your people to their homes?
43654Whom after all does this bloody seizure of ivory enrich?
43654Whose wish was that?
43654Why I have given him free passage and board for himself and followers from Zanzibar to Stanley Falls?
43654Why I have shared the kid and the lamb with him?"
43654Why are they not at their posts?"
43654Why did he fail?
43654Why do you adjure me to abandon the Mission?
43654Why do you grieve to- day?"
43654Why do you not go on and try your luck elsewhere?
43654Why does it not tell us, then, that we may see and believe?
43654Why how can you-- grown to the rank of Major-- ask such questions, or doubt the why and wherefore of acts which are as clear as daylight?
43654Why not attempt the carriage of this ivory to the Congo?
43654Why not?
43654Why should any one be disloyal?
43654Why should the herd hear State policy?"
43654Why should we think of the distresses of to- morrow?
43654Why should we wonder that the servant runs away from his master when he can not feed him?"
43654Why, Major, I am surprised that you who have seen Stanley Falls, and some hundreds of the Arabs should ask the question?
43654Why, whoever put you in mind of that word?
43654Why?
43654Will it tell him which is the path?
43654Will that instrument show him the road?
43654Will we carry a letter for you to Unyoro?
43654Will we sell a canoe?
43654With eighty rifles against probably 3000, perhaps 5000 guns?
43654Would I be right in leaving them to their fate?
43654Would it feed them?
43654Would it have been prudent for me to have left this man in such a state?
43654Would it not be consigning them all to ruin?
43654You are the carriers of the boat-- not we, Do you speak, what shall be done unto her?"
43654_ Malleju_ with a deep deep voice asked about you-- his brother?
43654and what do you think of them now?"
43654cried the native boy--"Nyanza?
43654do n''t you know you are surrounded?
43654do n''t you think it is rather a bitter sort?"
43654master, how do you like that style for high acting?"
43654was it he said?
43654what can he be doing there?"
41003Always?
41003And canst thou direct us thither?
41003And his wife? 41003 And if not?"
41003And if so?
41003And if thou failest?
41003And shall I see her?
41003And the dwelling- place of the Ruler of the World is that high land, towards which, at sunrise, we shall be pushing forward to discover?
41003And thou desirest to return because thou lovest her?
41003And thou desireth me to set forth in search of this legendary spot which no man hath yet discovered?
41003And thou wilt not fail to render me assistance in the hour of my need?
41003And thy parentage?
41003And what is the name of this unknown country?
41003And what manner of things were revealed?
41003And wilt thou not explain thy reason?
41003Are the others spies?
41003Are we not friends?
41003Art thou actually one of his handmaidens?
41003Art thou an Arab from the North?
41003Art thou bearer of a message from her?
41003Art thou certain that yonder crest is actually the rock we seek?
41003Art thou dazzled?
41003Art thou not afraid to accompany me in this search?
41003Art thou on thy way to them?
41003Believest thou that the Evil Spirit hath power supreme?
41003But are not its waters fatal? 41003 But hadst thou no motive in bringing me into this thine apartment, even at the imminent risk of detection and disgrace?"
41003But how came I to bear the mark?
41003But how dost thou know my innermost secrets?
41003But how is the extraordinary effect produced?
41003But if, while I sought to alienate the guards and soldiers against the Sultan, my seditious words should be whispered into his ear? 41003 By what means did the dog obtain admission?"
41003By whom?
41003Can not she write?
41003Canst thou not reveal to me anything now?
41003Canst thou not see that the asp''s poison is fatal?
41003Couldst thou not guide me thither?
41003Daughter of whom?
41003Did we not set forth to seek the Rock of the Great Sin, and didst thou not express thy readiness to accompany me whithersoever I went?
41003Didst thou have speech with him?
41003Didst thou not declare thou wouldst engage Malec in single combat in thine endeavour to fathom the Secret of the Asps?
41003Didst thou not witness in the prism the decree of Fate? 41003 Do all the versions agree that the Rock of the Great Sin is the gate of a region unknown?"
41003Do our enemies pursue us?
41003Do they eat human flesh?
41003Dost thou not fear to have a son of Anu as thy body- servant?
41003Dost thou promise to we d me if I am successful in my search after the truth?
41003Dost thou reside here always?
41003Dost thou think thou wilt succeed where valiant men for ages past have failed?
41003Even though thy Pearl may be daughter of the Evil One, and able to accomplish things superhuman?
41003Fearest thou to return?
41003For what reason hast thou sought to thus keep observation upon me?
41003From Omdurman?
41003From my camp?
41003From what destiny?
41003From whom hast thou heard mention of it?
41003From whom?
41003Has his Majesty given utterance to such a threat?
41003Hast thou ever seen Ea mirrored on the clouds?
41003Hast thou never seen its counterpart?
41003Hast thou still an amulet thy father gavest unto thee before his death?
41003Hast thou, in the course of thy many journeys afar, learned nothing of its existence beyond what the wise men and story- tellers relate?
41003Hath no man ever been able to penetrate into the mysterious abode?
41003Have thine eyes ever gazed upon the Rock of the Great Sin?
41003How camest thou, son of_ sebel_ to pass the guards of mine innermost court?
41003How didst thou detect their presence?
41003How earnest thou hither in company with horsemen of the Sultan''Othman, who fled at our approach?
41003How earnest thou hither?
41003How earnest thou to bear the brand of the serpents?
41003How was my life spared?
41003How?
41003How?
41003How?
41003In my harem?
41003In which direction?
41003Is it not folly, O friend, to trust thyself in yon sacred lake? 41003 Is it not written that we should bear no malice?"
41003Is the Lalla so carefully guarded that none can approach her?
41003Knowest thou any of that name?
41003Knowest thou mine enemies?
41003Knowest thou not the punishment meted out to those who dare to pass the Janissaries and tread the sacred courts of the harem?
41003Knowest thou not the writing upon my foundation- stones, offspring of Anu, defiler of the holy Ziggurratu?
41003Knowest thou the reason?
41003Knowest thou the routes in the forest?
41003Knowest thou the words graven upon the great image? 41003 Knowest thou where the Rock of the Great Sin is situated?"
41003Lovest thou me fondly enough to marry?
41003May I not investigate its contents now?
41003Not alone?
41003Of what tribe art thou? 41003 Of what?"
41003Or peradventure thy marriage?
41003Shall I go back and tell her, while thou remainest here until my return?
41003So thou art the Arab Zafar- Ben- A''Ziz, the horseman who alone escaped death at the well of Sabo- n- Gari?
41003Tell me, in which direction doth it lie?
41003Tell me, whence comest thou?
41003The right path? 41003 Then how can we we d?"
41003Then thou art not a Dervish?
41003Then thou canst give me absolutely no clue to its position?
41003Then, according to thy belief, the Good Spirit is powerless?
41003Then, in acting as our guide, thou art running a risk of death?
41003Then, thou didst discover the secret entrance; the mystery that hath remained hidden through an hundred ages?
41003Then, whither dost thou advise me to search for information? 41003 Then, why dost thou desire to leave our land of Ea?
41003Think, what art thou now? 41003 Thinkest thou that thou canst save a man whom thou bringest unto thine apartment in secrecy, dressed in woman''s garments?"
41003Thou hast chosen?
41003Thou, O friend, art not alone in seeking to discover it?
41003To show me favour, wilt thou not accept it, in order to pay those who perform service for thee?
41003Was he the Arab horseman captured at the well of Sabo- n- Gari?
41003Well,I said, after a pause,"believest thou that I am the prophesied doer of evil?"
41003Well?
41003Well?
41003Well?
41003What beholdest thou?
41003What didst thou discern?
41003What dost thou recognise?
41003What hast thou done?
41003What hideous shape hath frightened thee?
41003What is it? 41003 What is its name?"
41003What is the nature of her peril?
41003What knowest thou of my goal?
41003What knowest thou of the rock?
41003What message bearest thou?
41003What name bearest thou?
41003What revelation have I made?
41003What secret doth it contain?
41003What secret?
41003What seekest thou? 41003 What seest thou in the Mark of the Asps to amaze thee?"
41003What time has elapsed since we set forth?
41003What truth?
41003What was his name?
41003What was it?
41003What was the nature of thine offence?
41003What, I wondered, had I done that I was allowed to sit in the royal presence?
41003Whence comest thou?
41003Whence comest thou?
41003Whence didst thou obtain it?
41003Where be those owls, those oxen of the oxen, those beggars, those cut- off ones, those aliens, those Sons of Flight? 41003 Where, then, have I taken mine ease?"
41003Wherefore art thou unhappy?
41003While thy fellows have been making merry thou hast been gazing up at yonder lattice? 41003 Whither goest thou?"
41003Who art thou, son of_ sebel_, who vouchest for this dyer''s loyalty, and darest to give orders unto the emissaries of his Majesty?
41003Who art thou, that thou shouldst speak our sacred tongue?
41003Who dareth to gaze upon her with thoughts of affection?
41003Who is the woman?
41003Who seeketh it beside myself?
41003Who was the man who escaped?
41003Whom dost thou mean?
41003Why desirest thou to return to thy land of evil?
41003Why did this tou bab( European) desire to discover it?
41003Why hast thou approached me?
41003Why hast thou given warning?
41003Why standest thou here aloof from thy comrades, O friend?
41003Why? 41003 Why?"
41003Why?
41003Why?
41003Why?
41003Will any act of mine place about thee the walls of security and the stillness of peace?
41003Wilt thou not rest yonder for a while before returning?
41003Yet, during thy travels, hast thou never discovered the Rock of the Great Sin of which the wise men tell?
41003Yukub Sarraf, the Kaid of El- Manaa?
41003Am I a slave, that spies should be set to report upon my doings?"
41003Among the pigmies of the Wambutti?"
41003Are there not many regions still unknown to men?"
41003Art thou ready to adopt my suggestion?"
41003But have we not been told that they kill and eat their captives?
41003But how?
41003But if I failed to discover any exit?
41003But what mission bringest thou hither from the far north, without fighting- men?"
41003By whose hand had those marvellous pictures been chiselled?
41003By whose order had that tablet been prepared?
41003Canst thou not hear the thud of horses''hoofs?
41003Could that spot have been the actual entrance to the Unknown Land?
41003Did she know anything?"
41003Fearest thou to investigate the mysteries of Eblis, or to serve his handmaiden?"
41003From which of its small, closely- barred lattices had the city been revealed to me?
41003Had I not read on the tablet of Semiramis that no stranger was permitted to enter the Kingdom of Ea on penalty of death?
41003Had he ever heard of such a rock?
41003Had not the Sultan warned me that if I again set foot within his empire my life would pay the penalty?
41003Had she, I wondered, lonely and sad, watched from behind the lattice the festivities in the courts below?
41003Hast thou never seen it?"
41003Hast thou not warned thy father of the approach of the hosts of the Khalifa?"
41003Hast thou seen her?"
41003Have I not already expelled thee from this my kingdom?"
41003Have we not been warned that they are among the fiercest cannibals of the Forest of the Congo?"
41003He answered eagerly:"Meanest thou the Great Rock where dwelleth the bird- god Zu,` the wise one''?"
41003Her surprise found echo in the murmurings of the eager, excited crowd; but a moment later she asked,--"How camest thou hither?"
41003How earnest thou by that mystic mark of the serpents?"
41003How many persons inhabit this, thy palace?"
41003I looked at her a moment, dazed, then, rising slowly to my feet, seized her hands, asking,"When shall I set forth?"
41003If it were a man, as I supposed, why should the mark upon my breast have such attraction for him?
41003Might not the exit have been sealed in the same manner as the entrance?
41003Might not the zealously- guarded gate have closed and sunk beneath the surface of the unfathomable waters?
41003Of what character are they?"
41003On earth, who is supreme?
41003Our destinies are written in the Book, and therefore what is there left but to submit?
41003Tell me, why do thy people of the Avejeli regard it as sacred?"
41003Tell me, why shouldst thou interest thyself in my well- being?"
41003Then the Arabs asked,--"Speak, O leader, in what manner shall the pagan''s life be taken?"
41003Then turning, he added,"Hast thou forgotten thou still wearest the silk robe of a eunuch?
41003Then, after blowing out his torch, he addressed me, saying,"Art thou the friend of the Lalla Azala?"
41003There is the sign?"
41003Was I not actually within the Rock of the Great Sin?
41003Was it my ragged, unkempt appearance that had caused her such terror?
41003Was this chamber the sanctum of some seer whose duty it was to forecast the good or evil fortune of the doves of the harem?
41003Was this the Land of the Myriad Mysteries, that region dreaded by my clansmen of the deserts from the Atlas to the Niger?
41003Was this the cavern described in the legends as the entrance to the Land of the No Return?
41003Was this weird, misty gorge, devoid of herbage, and exuding a death- dealing breath, the actual entrance of the territory of all- consuming terror?
41003What could be the significance of the two asps?
41003What meanest this?
41003What meanest thou?"
41003What was she?
41003What was there beyond that impassable barrier?
41003What, I wondered, could these entwined asps denote?
41003What, I wondered, had been their crimes?
41003What, I wondered, was the nature of the great sin to which the rock had remained a mute witness?
41003When may these secrets be revealed unto me?
41003Whence comest thou?"
41003Whence comest thou?"
41003Where is their country?"
41003Whither will it lead us?"
41003Who are they?
41003Who was she?
41003Who were these emaciated, half- starved wretches?
41003Who, we wondered, were the assailants?
41003Why demandest thou an audience in this my dwelling- place?
41003Why dost thou taunt me?"
41003Why goest thou not unto the temple to make sacrifice before the golden image?"
41003Why had unhappiness consumed her?
41003Why not remain here in happiness and contentment?"
41003Why, indeed, had she concealed so much from me?
41003Why?"
41003Would she, I wondered, be successful in releasing me from this horribly maddening captivity?
41003Yet we love each other, though I am a disgraced outcast from the harem, in peril of my life--""Why art thou in such deadly peril?
41003the dwelling- place of the savage reptile that acted as janitor?
47030Alone?
47030And all you ask,said the Marquis, after carefully examining the warrant,"is the surrender of this girl?
47030And do you think that nothing more is needed-- that it is enough to contemplate the happiness of my subjects?
47030And do you think that should make me happy, mademoiselle?
47030And he said that I was to be the man?
47030And he told all this to you?
47030And how can I serve you further?
47030And how can I serve your majesty there?
47030And is it the white flour you bring me from your dusty mill?
47030And may it not be the teacher who was at fault?
47030And was his daughter coming with him?
47030And what of the man?
47030And what right have you,he continued as coldly as ever,"to crave mercy for him?
47030And what, sire,he asked diffidently,"shall I do with the girl?"
47030And who do you suppose she is?
47030And whose silent voice was this?
47030And why do you think I am that one, mademoiselle?
47030And why not, my son?
47030And why not?
47030And why should you not in any case?
47030And will it really bring you and Trecenito together if I go?
47030And yet you do not believe a man may be infatuated with her?
47030And you know why she is coming?
47030And you will let me do this little thing?
47030And your majesty denied me the pleasure of waiting on you?
47030Are you better?
47030Are you deceived by such a trick as that? 47030 Are you not well, Kophetua?"
47030Are you sure of this?
47030Are you sure?
47030Are you the great God?
47030But I have no money?
47030But are you sure no one will see me?
47030But do you not know?
47030But how are we to travel?
47030But how can you arrange this delicate mission,objected the Marquis,"while you are under arrest?"
47030But how did you come here?
47030But how do you come by it?
47030But is there the slightest chance of success?
47030But it wo n''t suit you, sir?
47030But of what kind was he?
47030But she is clever, is n''t she, General?
47030But what about the daughter?
47030But what were you doing there?
47030But where did you get it from?
47030But where have you been?
47030But where-- where am I to seek?
47030But why are you not to be with Mlle de Tricotrin? 47030 But why are you thus,"he said, irresolute and unable to comprehend whether it was play or earnest,"if it was not your desire?
47030But why did you not tell me this?
47030But why do you say all this?
47030But why not, madam, why not?
47030But why not? 47030 But will it take hold of me too?"
47030But, mademoiselle, how can I claim such a service at your hands? 47030 By what right,"said he,"do you conjure me by our old love?
47030Can you not think there may be something else a man may crave for, something still higher?
47030Child,said Héloise, in a hoarse whisper,"is it you?"
47030Did he come himself before?
47030Did my good mistress not tell you?
47030Did you not know?
47030Did you not say you were Trecenito''s soldier?
47030Did you recognise the girl in the stocks?
47030Do n''t you see? 47030 Do you intend to give me back the girl you stole from me?"
47030Do you know those men?
47030Do you know who it was?
47030Do you love me then so much?
47030Do you mean to allow a silly freak, in which we were both engaged, to sever our lifelong friendship?
47030Do you mean to thwart me again, Chancellor?
47030Do you not know, madam?
47030Do you not know?
47030Does he really mean to come in person?
47030Does your majesty insist on an answer?
47030Does your majesty threaten me?
47030Have you any light to throw on the parties concerned?
47030How am I to tell it is not the husk that is only fit for swine?
47030How can I be happy, how can I live according to nature, leading the life I do, without an annoyance, literally without an annoyance? 47030 How can I?
47030How is our Penelophon, mademoiselle?
47030How will you prevent it?
47030I do not understand; what do you mean?
47030I presume your majesty has nothing to put on the orders of the day?
47030In what capacity?
47030Is he hurt?
47030Is he? 47030 Is it possible you distrust your_ déesse_?"
47030Is it thinking of Trecenito that keeps you awake?
47030Is she a Girondist or a Jacobin, or whatever they are?
47030Is that all you have to say to me, Chancellor?
47030Is that the handsomest one you have?
47030Is there any business?
47030Is there nothing you have kept back? 47030 Is there something else?"
47030Is your majesty serious?
47030May I know nothing before I grant it?
47030May I not know who were your allies?
47030Must we wait very long?
47030My child, my child,said her mistress in a hushed voice, as of one who speaks in some vast, solemn cathedral,"whence and what are you?
47030My girl,said the Queen, with severity, though not unkindly,"why are you here?
47030My son, my son,he cried,"what do you here?
47030No, child; what was it?
47030None in the world,answered Turbo;"why should I?"
47030Not safe?
47030O base Assyrian knight, what is thy news? 47030 See, see,"whispered Penelophon, suddenly pointing to the window,"I knew you would save me; why did you frighten me so?"
47030Shall I bring my papers to this end of the room?
47030Shall I take his excellency''s parole?
47030Shall Mlle de Tricotrin retire?
47030That depends upon what you intend to do?
47030The discovery of my daughter''s complicity? 47030 Then she has told you the whole story?"
47030Then what do you mean to do?
47030Then what do you propose?
47030Then what is the meaning of this?
47030Then whom do you blame for the unfortunate intervention of the gendarmes?
47030Then why do n''t you stand yourself?
47030Then why refuse to receive your sword?
47030Then you accept my terms?
47030Then you are aware,continued the King,"that she is the person whom you allowed to escape from your custody?"
47030Then you can understand, mademoiselle,he said quite softly,"that I am perfectly miserable rather than perfectly happy?"
47030Then you will manage it?
47030To recapture the girl yourself, I presume?
47030To what end have I spent all these years in the study of politics? 47030 Trecenito,"she said again,"why did you let them call us man and wife?
47030Turbo,answered Kophetua hotly,"what folly is this?
47030Was not the King pleased with you, then?
47030Well, my child?
47030Well, sir?
47030What can she do? 47030 What did he say, sir?"
47030What do you mean by all this?
47030What do you mean, sir?
47030What do you mean?
47030What do you mean?
47030What do you propose to do?
47030What duty is it speaks so big?
47030What good can it do to gall your wounds and mine like this?
47030What is in it, sir?
47030What is the meaning of this?
47030What is this sin, my son? 47030 What is thy name, faire maid?
47030What is your name?
47030What monarch had a happier life or left a happier memory behind him? 47030 What must it be, then?"
47030What steps then,asked the General,"would your majesty desire me to take?"
47030What sudden chance is this? 47030 What thing, my girl?"
47030What things are those? 47030 What, now?
47030When will he be here?
47030When will you take me away? 47030 Where am I?"
47030Where is the note I shall take?
47030Where will you find truer nature, and, therefore, truer nobility, than there? 47030 Where you were to go, child?"
47030Who do you say, girl?
47030Who is this,he cried,"that dares to make arrest in a royal borough?
47030Who is your mistress?
47030Why all this nonsense about demanding a trial?
47030Why did you run away?
47030Why do they come to look at me?
47030Why do you do that, child?
47030Why so?
47030Why, deary,said Frampa,"what is the matter?
47030Why, my poor friend,she answered,"do you think they will go back now, with their hands on the prize?
47030Why, what folly is this?
47030Why, what is it you fear?
47030Why, what is that?
47030Will it bring Trecenito nearer to you, then?
47030Will you undress now?
47030Would your majesty wish to make the examination in private?
47030Yes, sir?
47030Yes, sire?
47030Yes?
47030Yes?
47030You do not mind that?
47030You look pale and tired; have you not slept?
47030You mean that I should arrange with your party which way it means to go, that you may be in a position to know how to lead it?
47030You must remember, my dear,said the Marquis,"they have been playing hero and heroine together in a very romantic drama?
47030You see he asked if he might bring her, and what could I say? 47030 You see?"
47030And yet, was it not the truth?
47030And, after all, where was the crime?
47030Are you ill?"
47030Are you sure you are right in your story of this romantic abduction?
47030But do you think you will bring her to it easily, Frampa?
47030But how was it to be done?
47030But the only question after all was, What would the King think?
47030But to what end is it all, I say?
47030But what is the need?
47030But where could he take her?
47030But where was ever a woman,"he added, with the sweetest smile,"who would not take a mean advantage if she could?"
47030But why are you glad?"
47030Can you not see what sweet solace there was for me there?
47030Can you not see?
47030Can you not send another?"
47030Could such beauty be the outward sign of the baseness which he had been taught to believe in?
47030Did this hermit give the key of the mystery why his own life had been as great a failure as the beggar- guild?
47030Did you show any to me?
47030Didst thou not feel it last night, when thou couldst not deny she was thy wife?"
47030Do n''t you see that?"
47030Do you hear?
47030Do you not know that no one is allowed in the park without leave?"
47030Find me a woman where the seraphic matter is unpoisoned with the spirit of Eve, and why should I not love her?
47030Have you not one blow in reserve?"
47030Have you told him this too?"
47030He could feel her trembling in his embrace, and his voice was very gentle as he answered,"Why, pretty one,"he said,"what were they?"
47030He knew the face well; where had he seen it?
47030How can I ever rival the knight,"he went on,"with nothing to overcome, with nothing to stand in my way?
47030How can a thing so beautiful know the ugliness of sorrow?
47030How can nobility grow out of such pettinesses as are our highest employments?
47030How could they ever recover their reputation?
47030How did you come to leave her?"
47030How shall I ever be able to return your devotion?"
47030How will you find reward for me, if to him you would give so much?"
47030I ask you, do you mean to make my son refuse again?"
47030I believe my orders are plain?"
47030I have come a long way to you, will you not make one step to meet me?
47030If General Dolabella would not accept his assurance of the girl''s innocence and danger, who would?
47030If one woman could be as good and pure and gentle as Penelophon, why should not another?
47030If she had jarred upon him so last night, did it not show that she was not the perfect schemer he had thought her?
47030Is it not lovely?"
47030Is there evidence of it?"
47030May I venture to ask whether the usual procedure in this country is to deal with the two things separately?"
47030Say now, my dear General, will you give my daughter this one last satisfaction before her marriage?"
47030Shall I go with you now?"
47030She could imagine, perhaps, a painter, or a sculptor, or a poet-- yes, but was not Kophetua a poet after all?
47030Surely you have not come to mock me like the rest?
47030Tell me, am I-- am I indeed your wife?"
47030To what end is all this?
47030To which voice would she give ear at last?
47030Was it not a gentle solace?"
47030Was it not for this you ran away to the players?
47030Was not the sublime life, after all, the life of moral influence rather than the life of action?
47030Was she so suddenly changed, or were his eyes dazzled by the vision on which he had been gazing too long?
47030Was this indeed the idol he had been gilding so long?
47030What are we beside them, with our empty, easy, untried lives?
47030What can you want with the child?"
47030What could it mean?
47030What could they be?
47030What devotion has he ever shown you?
47030What do you mean?
47030What do you mean?"
47030What else did you expect?
47030What had happened?
47030What has he ever sacrificed for you?
47030What is he to you that I was not a thousandfold?
47030What is it I shall do for you?"
47030What is it to me that my people are contented, rich, and unoppressed?
47030What is this lie?"
47030What law was ever proclaimed that did not bring evil in its train?
47030What might my lonely life have been with a daughter like you to warm and brighten it?
47030What of that?"
47030What ridiculous farce is this we are playing?"
47030What shall I do?
47030What sound has power like that?
47030What was he to do with her?
47030What will happen if he is not married this year?
47030When did I ever say a word against the material part of women?
47030When did he ever love you more than his dogs?
47030Where could he be going?
47030Where did she come from?"
47030Where else could you lodge her?
47030Where is the true woman who would not do the same, and do it well in a good cause?
47030Which department is it?"
47030Which thought was it that made her heart ache so as she reached her room that night, and saw how she was losing him?
47030Who can read aright the thoughts that vexed that lovely figure which had thrown itself in weary grace upon the soft divan?
47030Who can wonder that when the brilliancy of the career was so dazzling, that the shame on which it rested could hardly be seen?
47030Who shall tell?
47030Why are you not beside your wife?"
47030Why did he fetch her at the risk of his life and in disguise out of the Liberties?
47030Why did he place her with the most accomplished woman he knew, to be refined and sweetened for him?
47030Why do you think he chose the very hour when your daughter was with the Queen?
47030Why do you think he used to watch the beggar- maid continually from his windows?
47030Why does he sit continually before the old picture in the library?
47030Why should not this one?
47030Why should she feel for him, who had no spark of sympathy for her?
47030Will you not take me away where it can not come?
47030Yes, it is hard, but is not my lot harder still?
47030Yes; no doubt the Marquis was right unconsciously; but how to live the life he praised?
47030You are not afraid of the dark?"
47030You have reasons, have you, why you may not say who this lady is?
47030You know?"
47030You know?"
47030You understand?"
47030You-- you, who knew best how my heart could feel, what think you was in it then?
47030asked the General,"or will your majesty?"
47030cried the General in alarm,"what do you mean?"
47030exclaimed Penelophon, casting herself at Margaret''s feet,"what shall I do?
47030exclaimed the astonished King,"my mother took you to them?
47030if she had only been what he had almost thought her, how all his troubles would have been ended?
47030in the dark?"
47030lass,"he burst out,"could iron and stone help loving such a little flower?
47030my night- hawk,"cried the officer of the party, in a round laughing voice;"is that your note?
47030said he, starting back to see the haggard spectacle the King presented after the horrors he had gone through,"what has happened?
47030she cried, in a hushed voice of anguish,"what have you done?
47030she whispered,"or only an angel?"
47030to- night?
47030will you let him laugh at our noses like this?"
47030you think that?
5157A white man?
5157After me?
5157Ah, Mirambo is where? 5157 And how long do you think this little journey will take you?"
5157And is the- Doctor well?
5157And whither art thou bound with thy caravan?
5157And why?
5157And you, Chowpereh?
5157Any more of my people dead?
5157Anybody with him?
5157Are you sure?
5157Are you sure?
5157Are you well?
5157As it has turned out, though, do n''t you think I did right?
5157But do n''t you see us halted, and the bale opened to send it to you? 5157 But do n''t you think I did perfectly right?"
5157But do you not think, Mr. Dawson, you have been rather too hasty in tendering your resignation, from the more verbal report of my men?
5157But where is this Kazeh, Sheikh Sayd?
5157Did Mionvu tell you that this is the last time we would have to pay?
5157Did you have to pay much tribute to the Wagogo?
5157Do you hear?
5157Do you think he is alive?
5157Do you think he will do so?
5157Do you think he will stop there until we see him?
5157Hallo,said I,"is this another one?"
5157Halloa, Doctor!--you up already? 5157 Have the Turks many soldiers?"
5157Have these men-- these black savages from pagan Africa,I asked myself,"the qualities which make man loveable among his fellows?
5157Have you found him?
5157Have you heard, master, of Suleiman bin Ali?
5157Have you seen Kerbela, Bagdad, Masr, Stamboul?
5157Have you seen the northern head of the Tangannka, Doctor?
5157How do you like Zanzibar?
5157How goes the war?
5157How is he dressed?
5157How long ago?
5157How many beads?
5157How many has Persia?
5157How many pagazis, or carriers? 5157 How many soldiers?"
5157How much cloth?
5157How much did you pay?
5157How much wire?
5157How will it ever be possible,I thought,"to move all this inert mass across the wilderness stretching between the sea, and the great lakes of Africa?
5157How?
5157In this village?
5157Is Mr. Oswell Livingstone here?
5157Is Persia fertile?
5157Is he young, or old?
5157Is this true, Wallahi?
5157Kabogo? 5157 Kazeh?
5157My friendly Sheikh, wilt thou smoke?
5157Now, Doctor,said I,"you are, probably, wondering why I came here?"
5157Oh, if you do n''t, perhaps you would not object to me smoking, in order to assist digestion?
5157Oh, indeed?
5157Oh-- who has not heard of that newspaper?
5157Then it is settled, is it, that we go?
5157Was he ever at Ujiji before?
5157Was this the place where Burton and Speke stood, Bombay, when they saw the lake first?
5157Well, Dr. Livingstone is relieved and found, as Mr. Henn tells me, is he not?
5157Well, how did you come to Ukaranga?
5157Well, then, is Mirambo dead?
5157Well, then, where is Kazeh? 5157 Well, then,"said I,"if Hamed wants to be a fool, and kill his pagazis, why should we?
5157Well, what are you going to do now?
5157Well, what is your name?
5157What are you going to do now?
5157What did he die of?
5157What do you say, Asmani? 5157 What do you say, Mabruki?"
5157What has thou to tell me of the white man at Unyanyembe?
5157What is the matter with you, Bombay?
5157What kinds of cloth are required for the different tribes?
5157What news from Zanzibar?
5157What was I sent for?
5157What will it cost?
5157What will you have to drink-- beer, stout, brandy? 5157 Where else could it flow to?"
5157Where has he been so long?
5157Where has he come from?
5157Where is that Hajji Abdullah( Captain Burton) that came here, and Spiki?
5157Where is the Doctor?
5157Which white man?
5157Who are you?
5157Why did you go away, Bombay, when you knew I intended to go, and was waiting?
5157Why not? 5157 Why,"said she,"is he not one of us?
5157Why?
5157Wo n''t you walk in?
5157Yes, master; you no do it, when you go away? 5157 Yes, of course; am I not in his house?
5157You do not mean to say the white man is dead?
5157You?
5157( how are you, master?)
5157), and impassioned force(?
5157), rhythmic excellence(?
5157* Livingstone"Speak, men, freedmen, shall we not?--shall we not go to the Tanganika without any more trouble?
5157************ Dear me; is it the 21st of July?
5157--"Nor over the left nipple sometimes-- a quick throbbing, with a shortness of breath?"
5157After he was seated, and had taken his coffee, I asked,"What is thy news, my friend, that thou bast brought from Unyanyembe?"
5157After throwing over his shoulders his robe- de- chambre Mr. Bennett asked,"Where do you think Livingstone is?"
5157Against whom?
5157Also would they take hold of your watch and ask you with a cheerful curiosity,"What is this for, white man?"
5157And I?
5157Are not these the sources of the Nile mentioned by the Secretary of Minerva, in the city of Sais, to Herodotus?
5157Are there no bullocks, and sheep, and goats in the land, from which far better soup can be made than any that was ever potted?
5157Are we prepared to give up the ivory of Ujiji, of Urundi, of Karagwah, of Uganda, because of this one man?
5157Are you deserting the Musungu, for we know you belong to him, since you bought from us yesterday two doti worth of meat?''
5157Art thou mad?"
5157But I was madly rejoiced; intensely eager to resolve the burning question,"Is it Dr. David Livingstone?"
5157But Khamis broke out impatiently with,"Would you advise us to stop in our tembes, for fear of this Mshensi( pagan)?
5157But the great wonder of all was,"How did you come from Unyanyembe?"
5157But this-- where is the nobleman''s park that can match this scene?
5157But was it not England''s place to be in the front here?
5157But what could he do, with five men and fifteen or twenty cloths?
5157But what should I do at all, at all?
5157But why should I feel as if baited by these stupid, slow- witted Arabs and their warnings and croakings?
5157By anything in Asia?
5157By anything in Europe?
5157By what shall I gauge the loveliness of the wild, free, luxuriant, spontaneous nature within its boundaries?
5157Can these men-- these barbarians-- appreciate kindness or feel resentment like myself?"
5157Cazembe asked,"What can you want to go there for?
5157Children of Oman, shall it be so?
5157Did not Burton write much about black mud in Uzaramo?
5157Do n''t you hear my men call you the''Great Master,''and me the''Little Master?''
5157Do n''t you see, old fellow, the importance of the mission; do n''t you see what reward you will get from Mr. Bennett, if you will help me?
5157Do you hear them, Wanyamwezi?
5157Do you know that the Suez Canal is a fact-- is opened, and a regular trade carried on between Europe and India through it?"
5157Do you mean me to go to Central Africa?"
5157Do you not see he is sick?"
5157Do you understand them well?
5157Do you wish to die?
5157Do you?"
5157Does he not bring plenty of cloth and beads?
5157Does not the white man know there lives a king in Uhha, to whom the Wangwana and Arabs pay something for right of passage?"
5157Does not the white man mean to pay the King''s dues?
5157Does the white man mean to fight?
5157Every village will rise all about us, and how can forty- five men fight thousands of people?
5157Evidently Sheikh Hamed was gone stark mad, otherwise why should he be so frantic for the march at such an early hour?
5157FOREVER?
5157Forty spears against forty guns-- but how many guns would not have decamped?
5157Had HE heard of my coming?
5157Halting, I asked what was the matter, and what they wanted, and why they made such noise?
5157Has he not taken possession of your soil, in that he has put his horse into your ground without your permission?
5157Have I not been battered by successive fevers, prostrate with agony day after day lately?
5157Have I not clenched my fists in fury, and fought with the wild strength of despair when in delirium?
5157Have I not raved and stormed in madness?
5157Have I uttered a prayer?
5157He said aloud to himself, in my hearing,''Why should I get the Musungu pagazis?
5157Highness to me.--"Are you well?"
5157How am I to reach Livingstone, without being beggared?
5157How is His Highness?"
5157How long, I wonder, had it remained at Unyanyembe had I not been despatched into Central Africa in search of the great traveller?
5157How many of their friendly faces shall I see again?
5157How much would Shaw be willing to give to be in my place now?
5157I asked Selim,"Why did you not also run away, and leave your master to die?"
5157I asked him why he purchased such a slave, and, while he was with him, why he did not feed him?
5157I asked,"Do you not sometimes feel pain on the right side?"
5157I asked,"did you come so far back without finishing the task which you say you have got to do?"
5157I felt very much like going out to help them; but after debating long upon the pros and cons of it,--asking myself, Was it prudent?
5157I had to feel my way, and every step of the way, and was, generally, groping in the dark-- for who cared where the rivers ran?
5157I hear, also, that there are white men at Bagamoyo, who are about starting into the country to look after me(?).
5157I hope you have slept well?"
5157I replied cordially also,"Yambo, mutware?--How do you do, chief?"
5157If I am a rich sultan why comes not the chief with a rich present to me, that he might get a rich return?"
5157If I do a friendly part by him, will he not do a friendly part by me?
5157If I shot a buffalo cow, she was sure to be the best of her kind, and her horns were worth while carrying home as specimens; and was she not fat?
5157If the cloth was my own, could I not purchase what I liked?
5157If you have been long in your hut you must have seen him, Can you tell us where he is?''
5157In view of which, what is to be done?
5157Instead of submerging himself as others had done he coolly turned round his head as if to ask,"Why this waste of valuable cartridges on us?"
5157Is Dr. Livingstone here?"
5157Is it a wonder, then, that all felt happy at such a moment?
5157Is it not so?"
5157Is not that near Betlem el Kuds?"
5157It is of no use for you to tell me you are all one caravan, otherwise why so many flags and tents?
5157It was not my fault, was it?
5157Kaif- Halek...."How do you do?"
5157Kazeh?
5157Kingaru.--"Why?"
5157Livingstone?"
5157My days seem to have been spent in an Elysian field; otherwise, why should I so keenly regret the near approach of the parting hour?
5157No, tell me the general news: how is the world getting along?
5157Now, will you promise me that you will follow him-- do what he tells you, obey him in all things, and not desert him?"
5157On the 2(7?
5157Ough-- Mirambo is where?
5157Ought I to go?
5157Replied he, tartly,"Was he not my slave?
5157Said he to me,"I am your friend; I wish to serve you., what can I do for you?"
5157Said he,"Could I leave Thani, my friend, behind?"
5157Selim, my Arab servant, asked him,"What are you doing here, Sheikh Hamed?
5157Shall we fight or pay?"
5157Shall we give this fellow everything he asks?
5157Shall we submit to be robbed?
5157Shaw?"
5157Should you happen to fall sick in Kwihara who knows how to administer medicine to you?
5157Speak, Salim, son of Sayf, shall we go to meet this Mshensi( pagan) or shall we return to our island?"
5157Spiki dead?
5157Supposing you are delirious, how can any of the soldiers know what you want, or what is beneficial and necessary for you?
5157The Consul now introduces business; and questions about my travels follow from His Highness--"How do you like Persia?"
5157The Sultan was very much inebriated, and was pleased to say,"What is it you want, you thief?
5157The question,"Was the Rusizi an effluent or an influent?"
5157The soups-- who cared for meat soups in Africa?
5157Then began the questions, the gossipy, curious, serious, light questions:"How came the master?
5157Therefore have I come to ask you, who gave you permission to use my soil for a burying- ground?"
5157These are some of the questions I asked myself, as I tossed on my bed at night:--"How much money is required?"
5157They paced backwards and forwards, asking themselves,"Are the Wagoga to be beaten like slaves by this Musungu?
5157They would kill us all in a few minutes, and how would you ever reach Ujiji if you died?
5157This is the last time; and what are one hundred cloths to you?"
5157This is the singular farewell which I received from the Wanyamwezi of Singiri, and for its remarkable epic beauty(?
5157Three bottles of curry were next produced-- but who cares for curry?
5157To which of these rains should I compare this dreadful Masika of East Africa?
5157W. M.--"How many fighting men have you?"
5157W. M.--"How many soldiers have you?"
5157W. M.--"The great, great chief?"
5157W. M.--"Why do you come and make trouble, then?"
5157Was HE still there?
5157Was it not an afternoon march to enable caravans to reach water and food?
5157Was it not in Musa Mzuri''s house?"
5157Was not the cloth with which I bought him mine?
5157Was the Makata bad?"
5157We called to him when he was near, saying,''Master, where are you going so fast?
5157We knew them to be the men we were expecting; so we hailed them, and said,''Masters, what are ye looking for?''
5157What Hajji Abdullah?
5157What a deplorable state of mind, is it not?
5157What about?
5157What could a man have exaggerated of these facts?
5157What did these dumb witnesses relate to me?
5157What else?"
5157What if he were marching to Unyanyembe directly into the war country?
5157What is it?
5157What shall I do?
5157What were two antelopes for one day''s sport to the thousands that browsed over the plain?
5157What will become of the people if I were killed?
5157What will the leaders of it do now?
5157When did Mionvu ever hear of white men warring against black men?
5157When did you ever see him lift his hand against an offender?
5157When my advice was asked by Thani, I voted the whole thing as sheer nonsense; and, in turn, asked him what a terekeza was for?
5157When near to us, he hailed me with the words,"Yambo, bana?--How do you do, master?"
5157Where are the other warriors of whom the Wangwana and Wanyamwezi bards sing?
5157Where are ye going?
5157Where did Hajji Abdullah and Spiki live when they were in Unyanyembe?
5157Where is Sayd, the son of Majid?
5157Where is mighty Kisesa-- great Abdullah bin Nasib?
5157Where?
5157Who are they that they should be compared to white men?
5157Who can imagine the position?
5157Who could have desecrated this solemn, holy harmony of nature?
5157Who goes with me?"
5157Who is he that having read them will not remember with horror the dreadful account given by Speke of his encounters with these pests?
5157Who is your master?
5157Who knows how long his weak health had borne up against the several disappointments to which he would be subjected?
5157Who reads those newspapers, those''Saturday Reviews''and numbers of''Punch''lying on the floor?"
5157Who will be the next?"
5157Who will come to East Africa without reading the experiences of Burton and Speke?
5157Whose clothes, whose boots, are those?
5157Whose compass is that hanging on a peg there?
5157Why do you molest him and his people?
5157Why do you talk so?"
5157Why does he not come to our village?
5157Why does he stop on the road?
5157Why does the white man halt in the road?
5157Why is man so feeble, and weak, that he must tramp, tramp hundreds of miles to satisfy the doubts his impatient and uncurbed mind feels?
5157Why should I go home before my task is ended, to have to come back again to do what I can very well do now?"
5157Why should I trouble myself about him?
5157Why will he not enter the village of Lukomo, where there is food and shade-- where we can discuss this thing quietly?
5157Why, do you come to trouble the Wakonongo: What have you to do with them?
5157Will Mionvu say what I can do for him?"
5157Will the white man have war or peace?"
5157Will they not desert me again?
5157Will you walk to our village, and rest yourselves under the shade of our trees until we can send messengers to Kawanga?"
5157With this small body of men, whither can I go?
5157Would HE fly?
5157Yambo....."How are you?"
5157You have heard of the''New York Herald?''"
5157You wo n''t?
5157and is he stopping at Ujiji now?"
5157are you Chumah, the friend of Wekotani?"
5157said I,"do you really think I can find Dr Livingstone?
5157we mutually asked questions of one another, such as"How did you come here?"
5157what is that?"
5157where do you come from?"
32923Ah, but, father,said Selim;"do you not think the Nazarenes are accursed of God, and of the prophet Mohammed-- blessed be his name?
32923Ah, when shall I forget her, master, or you?
32923Ah, who does not know Simba and Moto?
32923All, except one, and--"And his name was--?
32923And how many days from here, Abdullah, is the spot from whence Selim disappeared?
32923And my brother, what of him?
32923And shall we see-- never more see Kalulu?
32923And thou art going with him-- thou, a child? 32923 And thou art the new brother of my boy Kalulu, art thou, pale- faced boy?"
32923And thou too, Moto, here? 32923 And thou, Sheikh Mohammed?"
32923And what didst thou, too, Simba?
32923And what do my friends think of the two roads? 32923 And what wilt thou give him as a sign?"
32923And what wilt thou give him as a sign?
32923And what, my father,replied the boy, bending a loving look on him,"couldst thou fear?
32923And where did you meet elephants?
32923And where did you meet the Arabs?
32923And where shall I go when I die?
32923And who gave thee such ideas, son Selim? 32923 Are ye Arabs, children?"
32923Art thou afraid of a dead boy? 32923 Art thou mad?"
32923Art thou sick?
32923Art thou willing further to drink his blood, that his blood may pass unto thee, that the bond of eternal brotherhood may be made strong and sure?
32923Art thou willing, further, to drink his blood, that his blood may pass unto thee, that the bond of eternal brotherhood may be made strong and euro?
32923Brave Simba and faithful Moto, where are ye? 32923 But this is murder, is it not?"
32923But what are you going to do with him?
32923But what art thou going to do with the head, Keklu?
32923But where is Zanzibar?
32923But where is that whip of thine, Tifum?
32923But, Selim, tell me; why do thy people wear clothes? 32923 But, father Amer, what harm can my uncle do me, and why should he wrong me, who have never done him wrong in word, or thought, or deed?"
32923But, father, thou art not offended with me? 32923 But, my brother,"urged Moto, with anger in his tones,"how could the gun have come there if some one had not left it?"
32923Dead, is he? 32923 Did ye not tell me ye were Arabs?"
32923Did you ask them where they were going?
32923Didst thou hear Soltali''s words?
32923Do ye hear, children of the Arabs? 32923 Do ye understand?"
32923Do you hear and understand, asses and sons of asses?
32923Do you not hear the young master ask you? 32923 Do you think Abdullah will come to soon?"
32923Does Moto say he tickled the tail of an elephant? 32923 Dost thou know that thou art my slave now, Kalulu?
32923Dost thou know what chapter of the Kuran fits our case better than any other, Selim?
32923Dost thou not fear the fate Soltali promised thee?
32923Dost thou not know Moto, master?
32923Dost thou not know, mother? 32923 Dost thou really like big Simba?"
32923Dost thou see Simba, how thin he is? 32923 Dost thou suffer much, lea?"
32923False mganga, seest thou you tree and that fire?
32923Fool, do you know what you say?
32923How can you talk so, Master Isa?
32923How didst thou find the crocodile, Kalulu?
32923How is Katalambula''s village to be taken? 32923 How is it, then, in the name of Allah,"said the aged Sheikh,"that ye come in this guise, naked, into the presence of true believers?"
32923How many cloths did Kisesa give you?
32923How many men canst thou take with thee, Sheikh Thani?
32923How serious?
32923I? 32923 In what direction is his country?
32923Is Mommed alive now?
32923Is he the little fellow who used to play tricks upon Isa, son of Thani, Selim?
32923Is it Selim, the son of Amer, whose eyes are like the singwe of Urundi, and whose limbs are like ivory? 32923 Is it strong?
32923Is that a beast, or is it my timid fancy which creates such a shape? 32923 Is that the Mienzi Mungu who left the gun?"
32923Isa, son of Mohammed, is a boy and can not understand-- and can not understand what-- will you tell me, brave Simba?
32923Let us go on, then, and find out; let us follow this road until we come to some village where we can ask?
32923Mother, canst thou tell me what I have come to say to thee?
32923Moto,answered that great and tender- hearted giant,"Tell me, what could have done this?
32923Moto,shouted Simba, raising himself up,"art thou revenging thyself on me for making thee unhappy with the mention of him?
32923Not even you? 32923 Now, Master Selim, speak, what is to be done?"
32923Oh, I shall have my eyes on him, depend on it; but when shall we go, Kalulu?
32923Oh, Simba, how canst thou ask? 32923 Perhaps you can tell us where they came from?"
32923Say you so, my brothers?
32923Say, auctioneer, why is he handcuffed? 32923 See, Kalulu, dost thou not know Selim?"
32923Selim, son of Amer, permit Simba, the Mrundi, to ask thee if thou hast already forgotten thy dead father, thy kinsmen, thine own miseries? 32923 Selim?
32923Shall I fire now?
32923Somewhere about twelve, I should say? 32923 Speak, Ferodia, O chief, when wilt thou that we go and punish Soltali, and those who have chosen another in thy place?"
32923Speak, Selim; what can Kalulu do for thee? 32923 That is a very good way of putting it,"said Amer,"but what dost thou say, Khamis, about the comparative safety of the two roads?
32923That is well- spoken, Moto,replied Mohammed; and turning to Sheikh Khamis, he asked:"Hast thou decided what to do, son of Abdullah?"
32923Then do the Warori carry guns nowadays? 32923 Then if ye are Arabs, what does this violence mean?"
32923Then it is settled; eh, Simba and Moto?
32923There, Simba,said Isa, triumphantly,"what do you think now of slaves and true believers?
32923These are the King''s words, which he commanded me to tell you:` Why have you come to my country? 32923 Those cruel people make clean work of it when they fight, but I--""Were they all made prisoners?"
32923Thou dost remember her, dost thou not, Niani?
32923Tifum, what dost thou advise? 32923 Tifum,"said Ferodia, aloud,"what ails this tallest lad?
32923War, Moto? 32923 Was not that the Gombe River we passed?"
32923Well, I will give him to Kalulu; but I thought there were three of them; or were there four?
32923Well, well, we will talk of this another time,said Moto quietly,"eh, Simba, my brother?
32923Well, what became of the elephant you shot?
32923Well, what makes him so white? 32923 What Arab tribe can boast a lad of your years with so much beauty and heart?
32923What ails thee, boy? 32923 What beast can it be?
32923What can be the matter with the boy? 32923 What country is this?"
32923What do you know of it, Moto?
32923What does he say?
32923What dost thou say, Simba? 32923 What dost thou think, Simba?"
32923What harm can happen to him about here, except from a lion or a leopard? 32923 What is it?"
32923What is that?
32923What is the Sky- spirit like?
32923What is the matter, Selim?
32923What made you run away? 32923 What means this, Ferodia?"
32923What need he cover his nakedness, boy? 32923 What of him?"
32923What road did he take; dost thou know, Moto?
32923What sayest thou, Abdullah? 32923 What sayest thou, Kalulu?"
32923What should it be, my brothers, but the head of Tifum the Wicked?
32923What would be their reception?
32923What, will he do nothing, then? 32923 What?
32923When did a son of the great tribe of Beni- Hassan show fear? 32923 Whence come you?"
32923Where am I?
32923Where does he live?
32923Where is the Arab who does not love the Nedjid mare, which partakes of his food, as the wife of his bosom? 32923 Where is this Paradise to which the good men go?
32923Where?
32923Which?
32923Who are ye? 32923 Who art thou speaking of, Ferodia?"
32923Who do you think these people are, Kalulu?
32923Who of us knows much about arrows? 32923 Who were these people?"
32923Who?--I? 32923 Why did he run away?"
32923Why do the pale- faces obey a thing that can not be seen?
32923Why need I ask him? 32923 Why with you?"
32923Why, Simba,asked the eldest of the sons of Mussoud,"do you know what the sacred Kuran says?
32923Why, then, Unyanyembe is not far from here?
32923Why, what can the matter be with thee, my friend?
32923Why, what is the matter with you to- night?
32923Why? 32923 Will I do thee a favour?
32923Wilt thou stay with me now? 32923 With what wilt thou seal thy promise?"
32923With what wilt thou seal thy word?
32923Yes, Simba, what is it?
32923Yes, Simba; and wouldst thou believe it? 32923 Yes, my brother, we are safe for the present; but Zanzibar is yet far, is it not?"
32923Yes, yes, that''s very funny; very funny,said Moto, trying to curb his impatience;"but did your man find nothing else near it?"
32923Yes; why?
32923_ Only_ forty? 32923 ` Is Moto your name?''
32923` You are a Mrori,''said the boy,` and will you make Mostana''s son a slave to those robbers?'' 32923 A white Arab boy, of my size?
32923A wild beast would have advanced with as much circumspection and caution-- why not a human enemy?
32923Abdullah, Moto, do ye hear?"
32923Abdullah?
32923Abdullah?
32923After a long march we came before a Tillage near Ututa, governed by--""By whom?"
32923Am I a slave?"
32923Am I deaf?"
32923Am I more a slave than before?"
32923Am I not good now, and shall I not go to Paradise?"
32923Am I not good, Kalulu?
32923Am I not with my father, the brave Amer son of Osman?
32923And did He not find thee needy, and hath He not enriched thee?
32923And did He not find thee wandering in error, and hath He not guided thee into the truth?
32923And how is it that you wear such fine clothes?"
32923And if thou art of the complexion of ivory, what are we, I wonder-- I, Isa, son of Mohammed, and Khamis, son of Khamis?"
32923And the natural questions the warriors would ask themselves and each other in the morning would be,"Which way have they gone?
32923And then in a louder tone he said,"Selim, young master, dost thou know me?"
32923And where have they gone to?
32923And why is the chain about his neck?
32923And you refuse it, too?
32923Are my words nothing?
32923Are not all bystanders in all parts of the world always wondering why such and such things happen?
32923Are they Arabs?
32923Are they Wanyamwezi?
32923Are they Waruga- ruga( bandits)?
32923Are they from Ugala or Ukonongo?
32923Are they natives?
32923Are they not pretty?
32923Are we not, Moto?"
32923Art thou going to get rich too?"
32923Art thou not our King?
32923Art thou not surrounded by kind friends and servants who love thee as their father?"
32923Art thou not the child of my loins, and of my dear Amina?
32923Art thou satisfied?"
32923Art thou sorry thou hast left thy home-- eh, Selim?"
32923As Moto finished this part of his story, the boy chief sprang forward and embraced Moto, saying:"Dost thou not know me?
32923But how can I ever pay thee for all?
32923But it is thou who art unjust, not I. Hast thou not received a fourth of all thou didst bring me?
32923But say, is not this beautiful?"
32923But tell me, my brother, how comes thy back so scarred and wealed?"
32923But tell us, son of Abdullah, what of the Pagans of Rua, and those lands near the Great Lakes?
32923But what is thy bright idea, Selim?"
32923But what meanest thou, Moto?"
32923But where are the mourners?
32923But who are those people?
32923But who has a better right to fill his place than I, Ferodia?
32923But who is this little fellow-- thy son, Simba?"
32923But why dost thou wish to leave thy mother, child, so soon?"
32923Can Abdullah swim?"
32923Can he punish me more?
32923Can it be the hyaena?"
32923Can many more miracles happen to us like this?"
32923Canst thou not give him something to cover his nakedness?"
32923Canst thou not guess?
32923Canst thou speak Kinyamwezi?
32923Canst thou speak Kirori?
32923Canst thou tell me?"
32923Could anything have been more fortunate?
32923Could anything have been more tempting than this?
32923Did He not find thee an orphan, and did He not take care of thee?
32923Did I not hear thee say, Kalulu, that there lay a lake, a large body of water somewhere about here?"
32923Did he say, Abdullah, whether he would go north or south first?"
32923Did you think to better yourself by doing so?
32923Do I not tell you that he commands you to dance, and the other slave to sing?"
32923Do they make good slaves, and do they sell well in our market?
32923Do ye hear?"
32923Do ye see yon slave about to be sold now?"
32923Do ye understand?"
32923Do you call forty cloths a great deal?"
32923Do you call my brother a slave?
32923Do you hear me, white face?"
32923Do you know Selim?"
32923Do you not remember how pretty he looked when he hinted to his father, that perhaps Simba would like his freedom?
32923Do you not think it right for us to take and capture those who waylay us, and make them slaves for their perfidy and savagery?"
32923Do you see that big man with the great battle- axe in his belt, and a long ivory horn slung to his shoulder?
32923Do you see that woman before you?
32923Do you think Mombo will live, Simba?
32923Do you understand this feeling, father Amer, or is it singular in me?"
32923Does Kisesa usually fight in such a hurry?
32923Does he think that cloth, and guns, and powder grow in the jungles of Africa?
32923Dost thou know Leilah?"
32923Dost thou know that my soul feels heavy to- night, as if some great affliction was about to visit me?"
32923Dost thou need a gun?
32923Dost thou not know that in the night we can do nothing to hunt him up, when he may be anywhere but in the place where we are looking for him?
32923Dost thou not know them?"
32923Dost thou not see that he is handcuffed?
32923Dost thou not think he looks a warrior in his marching dress?
32923Dost thou promise?"
32923Dost thou speak their language, Tifum?"
32923Dost thou think he could get lost, Moto?"
32923Dost thou think that Kalulu''s friendship changes like the antelope, which roameth about for the sweet grass, now here, now there?
32923Dost thou want a wife?
32923Dost thou wish me to take that from him which he has won by his spear and his bow?"
32923Eh, Khamis, my brother?
32923Finally, after going through the ceremony of greeting, like an assiduous old diplomat that he was, he asked:"Whence come ye, my brothers?
32923Had he parted for ever from freedom and friendship?
32923Has Simba paid thee full valuation for the purchase- money thou didst pay for him when he was a child?"
32923Has he not slain my father, and has he not dishonoured me by causing me to stand naked before him?
32923Has he tried to run away?"
32923Hast thou any idea, Simba?"
32923Hast thou anything very important to tell me?"
32923Hast thou forgotten the slaves, the cloth, the powder, and guns I gave thee?
32923Hast thou never heard him mention the word Soul-- that unseen, unfelt thing, which is as light as air, yet is the most important part of a man?
32923Hast thou never thought how pretty and sweet sound the songs of birds, Kalulu?
32923Hast thou not asked for Kisesa, the great Arab warrior, that thou mightest flay him alive and make clothes of his skin to cover thy nakedness?
32923Hast thou not been beating the prisoners with sticks until many of them have died under the torture?
32923Hast thou not been mutilating their young sons by cutting off their right hands?
32923Hast thou not, Tifum?"
32923Hast thou seen the kidling by the side of its dam?
32923Have I not my gun and long- sword?
32923Have I not said well?"
32923Have ye seen a caravan lately going by here towards Unyanyembe?"
32923He will roar no more, will he, chief?"
32923Heh, what is the matter with the man to- night?"
32923How are the warriors in the village to be brought to submission to Ferodia, if they have made Kalulu king?"
32923How can we get away to Zanzibar?"
32923How his eyes, always beautiful, seemed filled with softness, and love, and gratitude to me?
32923How is Kalulu to be ousted out of his right?
32923How is this, Simba?"
32923How many frasilah dost thou think there are in the three?"
32923How shall I praise thee?
32923How shall I thank thee, my Kalulu?
32923How was Abdullah treated?
32923How, hast thou two mothers?
32923How, then, shall I fill Katalambula''s place?
32923I a slave?"
32923I see Amer and Mohammed in your eyes, children; how came I to forget that fatal day of Kwikuru?
32923I see we shall have a glorious company; and thou, Mussoud?"
32923I will take it with thanks, since you say you do n''t want it; but wo n''t you keep a little of it for yourself?"
32923If Fate decrees my death and misery, then why should I try to escape its sure laws by remaining behind?
32923If Kalulu permits us to go, would it be well for us to remain here?"
32923If one of these people can trust himself in the forest, why may I not do so?
32923If we all had been together those fellows might have killed two or three of us, and whom could we have spared?--Selim?
32923In this case what do you propose?"
32923In what battle were your fathers slain?"
32923Is Selim, the son of Amer, turned a girl, that his ears court such music?
32923Is he hard or soft to the touch?"
32923Is he not a handsome brother?
32923Is he not an unbeliever, father?"
32923Is he not as white as any Nazarene?
32923Is he not, Moto?"
32923Is his skin like the shell of an egg?
32923Is it a man?
32923Is it agreed that we go to Rua with the son of Abdullah, to get ivory, slaves, and copper, and light- coloured wives?"
32923Is it another sign of the growth of thy mind?"
32923Is it brave to do what thou hast done?
32923Is it north, south, east, or west?
32923Is it not a happy thought, Moto, that master Amer is not quite, quite dead, and that we shall see him again?"
32923Is it nothing, what Kalulu has done for me all these months?
32923Is it right, or is it not, to own slaves?"
32923Is it thou?"
32923Is not one white slave enough for thee, that thou wouldst deprive me of the other?
32923Is not the world for ever in a maze, and deeming many things of like nature to be incomprehensible?
32923Is there more danger to be apprehended from the Warori and the Watuta than we, a trading caravan, would care to meet?"
32923It is in his caravan as fundi I finished my education as a hunter)--travelling through Ukonongo, I--""Have you been to Ukonongo, Moto?"
32923Katalambula-- even I-- was poor, whereas who is to be compared to me now in wealth?
32923Kibena, perhaps?
32923Know you not that there is enmity between the Warori and the children of the Arabs?
32923Knowest thou the spot where thy man found this wonderful gun?"
32923Leilah, the daughter of Khamis bin Abdullah?"
32923Look at the water of Liemba, so beautiful, so clear, so deep; and, does it not shame the sky with its blueness where it is deep?
32923Mombo die?
32923Moto, where dost thou think Amer is now?"
32923Mrori, speak; must I ask twice for that which was never yours to give?
32923My white brother, canst thou swim?"
32923Niani?
32923No, again?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923Out spoke Amer bin Osman:"Do you think, Moto, if we offered half he would accept?"
32923Said he:"Well, Simba;--ah, Isa, you do not know what a treasure Simba is; he is so great, so wise, so strong!--what do you think of the southern road?
32923Say, Kalulu, wilt thou come, and share my sweet mother''s love with me?
32923Say, Selim, how wouldst thou like it?"
32923Say, Simba, how much money would the ivory of these three elephants bring at Zanzibar, dost thou think?"
32923Say, what is thy answer?"
32923Say, where is Isa?
32923Say, whither hast thou gone, that thy voice may no longer be heard, nor thy ears may longer hear Kalulu''s Voice?
32923Say, wilt thou come, and let me show thee the wonders of Zanzibar?"
32923See you not the gate is closed?"
32923Seest thou not it is but my duty to search for him?
32923Selim turned round to Kalulu and asked:"How does the young King of Ututa like his brother Selim''s house?"
32923Selim turned to Moto, and asked:"Oh, if thou canst give me the slightest hope that I shall see Kalulu again, I will bless thee?"
32923Shall I go to Paradise?"
32923Shall I never see dear master again?
32923Shall I remain at Zanzibar eating mangoes when Amer, my kinsman, is in danger?
32923Shall these baby- faces beard me before my own people?"
32923Shall we await here in the camp the coming of the infidel savages, or shall we sally out of the camp and attack them in their boma( palisade)?"
32923Shall we deny him our faint praise?
32923Shall we not wish him happiest days?
32923Shall we refuse him wedlock lays?
32923Should Moto take that from Kalulu which was not his to take?
32923Should he go back at once and gladden the hearts of his friends with the good news?
32923Sickness may come; but who can prevent the bad spirits that visit us with baleful disease and thin our warriors, and make us poor in flocks and herds?
32923Simba waited patiently for the first feeling of numbness to wear away, then whispered to him:"Kalulu, dost thou remember Soltali''s words?
32923Since when came you to be the brother of Kalulu, you son of an ass?"
32923Some were for slaying the boys at once; but the majority interposed, and said in an inquiring tone,"Why slay boys, when you can make slaves of them?"
32923Speak, Simba and Moto, where do ye both intend to go?"
32923Tell me, Sheikh Amer, how many of thy people armed canst thou take with thee?"
32923Tell me, son of Mohammed, where are Selim, and Mussoud, and Isa?"
32923That was a good deal, was it not?"
32923The excitement became general, and the question which first came to each lip was,"Where are they?"
32923The following verses are sufficient as an example:-- Canst thou love me as I love thee?
32923The shriller horn belonged to Amer bin Osman, and was blown by Moto; but what did the bass horn from the interior of the village mean?
32923Their hides are as white almost as the yolk of eggs but how came the tallest one, I wonder, to have so many wounds?"
32923Then our fears, my friend, have turned out true, and it is because of the battle which thou wert in with Kisesa against Mostana, eh?"
32923Then what language dost thou talk?
32923There is nothing specially dangerous in smoke, he thought; but what smoke could this be in the forest?
32923This, thought Kalulu, was friendly; and in pure guilelessness he asked him:"Are ye Arabs?"
32923Thou dost not mean the mainland, surely?"
32923Thou hast said thou art not going to die, then why torment me?"
32923Thou robber, cutthroat, and coward, dost thou hear me?"
32923Thou wilt not want to go at once, Selim, wilt thou?
32923Twelve frasilah of ivory at 50 dollars the frasilah( 35 pounds) would make how much?"
32923Was it Ferodia?"
32923Was it not the road on which caravans journeyed to Unyanyembe?
32923Was not Kalulu a slave yesterday?
32923Was not the finding of a gun strange enough in a forest which, for aught I know, never saw one before?
32923We must be back by noon, for if Kalulu is not here by then, and neither of us have found him, then he is--""What, Moto?"
32923We shall be sons of Arabs, and true believers now, eh?"
32923We shall watch him-- eh, Selim?"
32923Well, I was saying, I--""But, Moto,"broke in Selim again,"Ukonongo is the best country for shooting, is it not?"
32923Were not our children hungry when he departed?
32923Were not our maidens in tears when he and his warriors left us?
32923Were they not victors?
32923Were those people Wazavila or wild Wanyamwezi?
32923Wert thou a man, thou shouldst never have seen her face?
32923What Selim?
32923What actor could have imitated Ferodia?
32923What amount of cloth dost thou think will suffice this man''s greed?
32923What became of Kalulu, thy friend?
32923What can be more enjoyable?
32923What can he want there now?"
32923What can my mother object to?"
32923What can the Pagan dogs do against all the great Arabs, and my father''s kinsmen, when Khamis bin Abdullah, and Amer bin Osman lead?
32923What canst thou find there to learn?
32923What civilised king ever possessed that gait?
32923What civilised monarch ever acted the triumph he felt so well as Ferodia?
32923What could it be?
32923What crime has ever my brain meditated, that I must be reft of my life at so early an age?
32923What did you take us for?"
32923What do ye say, Selim-- Abdullah?"
32923What do you mean?
32923What do you say now, Moto?"
32923What do you suggest, Moto?"
32923What does Kisesa mean?''
32923What does Sultan bin Ali say?"
32923What dost thou think, Moto?
32923What evil spirit is this, that makes me suffer so?
32923What folly is this, Selim, my son?
32923What guile has ever my childhood''s heart conceived for which my youth must pay the penalty?
32923What has Kalulu done unto thee or thy friends, that thou wouldst leave him?"
32923What has become of the village of Katalambula?
32923What has prompted thee to such a question?
32923What hast thou to say to Simba, Selim?"
32923What have I done, that all should leave me?
32923What is it thou wouldst ask?"
32923What is it to thee what the thoughts of a forward Nazarene lad are?
32923What is this new sight or feeling, my father?
32923What joy is left for me-- my son and lord both going?
32923What king has a warrior like Ferodia?
32923What makes thee think that?"
32923What may that be?
32923What news?"
32923What rich man''s house is there in America which has not some trophy of its master''s hunting prowess?
32923What said I?
32923What sayest thou, Moto, my friend?
32923What should he do?
32923What should we have done without thy friendship?
32923What sin has my infancy committed that my youth must be punished so severely?
32923What thing on earth does its work so quietly as the eye?
32923What was it?
32923What wrong have these boy- hands performed, that their owner merits death?
32923Whatever Amer bin Osman does is right; at least, so I have heard men say, and shall I, his son, judge him?"
32923When he had seated himself, he asked Selim:"What book is that thou wert talking of to me yesterday?"
32923When the Arab boy sank in the deep waters brown, Gripped by the greedy crocodile, and sank deep down, Who div''d to rescue him?
32923When was the world not shocked at an exhibition of nature?
32923Where art thou, Selim, son of Amer, pride of the Beni- Hassan?
32923Where canst thou meet with a land so fair, my Selim?
32923Where have those people gone to?"
32923Where is Soltali?
32923Where is little Mussoud?
32923Where is that?
32923Where is the Homer who shall arise and sing of thy prowess?
32923Which way wilt thou take, south or north?"
32923Who and what are ye?"
32923Who are stronger, richer than the Nazarenes of England?"
32923Who art thou?
32923Who but young Kalulu?
32923Who can forget him?
32923Who conquered the Wabona, the Wumarungu, the Wakonongo, the Wanyamwezi, the Wasowa, the Wakawendi, and the Warimba, but I, Forodia?
32923Who goes beyond twenty?"
32923Who is Kalulu?
32923Who is he that has run away?"
32923Who is like unto Ferodia in the battle?
32923Who is like unto Ferodia?
32923Who is like unto Forodia in wisdom?
32923Who is stronger than thou in the battle?
32923Who is this boy?"
32923Who knows how many of these stalwart and stout- hearted people will return to those from whom they are now almost tearfully withdrawing?
32923Who knows what has happened to my brother Kalulu?
32923Who sav''d Kalulu?
32923Who sent thee there but I?
32923Who shall tell the wide, wide world all the deeds done by thy mighty hands?
32923Who told thee thou wert too big to remain with thy mother?"
32923Who won his battles for him, but I, Ferodia?
32923Who would believe it?"
32923Who would have thought that such large independence could hide within the little body of the American balyuz''s son?
32923Whose were the warriors with whom the battle was won at Kwikuru?
32923Why do you not go about without clothes, as we do?"
32923Why does he not come down and show himself?
32923Why had he come so far at all?
32923Why had he not listened to his brother Selim and his friends, who begged him not to go out?
32923Why not now?
32923Why should I suffer, when all other men are happy?
32923Why shouldst thou fear for me?
32923Why was it that, before coming to these mountains, I never thought upon this subject?
32923Why wilt thou, oh Selim, shake thy head so stubbornly?
32923Why wilt thou, who art but a boy, tell me these things concerning Ferodia?
32923Why?
32923Will that content thee, Kalulu?"
32923Will the brave and noble Amer son of Osman, who is now bending over his beautiful wife, in earnest conversation, ever come back?
32923Will you not let me depart to my uncle, to remember the friendly Mrori who scorned to take advantage of a boy?''
32923Will you submit?''
32923Wilt thou be one of us?"
32923Wilt thou come?
32923Wilt thou come?"
32923Wilt thou do Selim a favour, Kalulu?"
32923Wilt thou leave thy mother, the orange- groves, the palms, the cool fountains, for scorching days and arid plains?
32923Wilt thou leave thy mother, these delights, these joys, for the cruel heat, and thirst, and jungle- thorn of negro- land?
32923Wilt thou not come and live with me?
32923Wilt thou not let me go after one moon, my brother?
32923Wilt thou not let thy mother''s voice plead, and prevail with thee, Selim?
32923Wilt thou that he shall choose for himself what he shall please to reserve, or wilt thou choose what he shall have and what thou wilt keep?"
32923Wilt thou, Selim?"
32923With whom can I be safer than with thee?
32923Would the children of the Arabs say any of these sang?
32923Would there ever be an end to the indescribable misery he suffered now?
32923Would there ever be hope for him more?
32923Yet what have I to give thee?
32923Yet who can insure his return?
32923You are Warori?"
32923You have been unsuccessful?"
32923` Hast thou not been making war upon our merchants, killing them in the forest for the sake of their ivory?
32923and have I ever failed in my love for thee?"
32923and shall I, the son of a chief of that tribe-- the son of Amer bin Osman-- look upon the faces of the Pagans with fear in my heart?"
32923and thou, Moto?
32923and what is your purpose?"
32923and wilt thou repeat what thou hast said about the Pagan wife, of Sayd''s son?"
32923anything else for me to do?
32923art thou much hurt?"
32923but, Abdullah, did he tell you which way he was going after he would leave you?"
32923cried Kalulu,"why dost thou not say a kind word to my white brother?
32923cried Selim,"good Simba, do you hear the words of my father?
32923did he try to murder his master?
32923did you not hear your young master say you were brave and strong, and why should you fear we should have some fun?"
32923do n''t I?"
32923do you hear that?
32923do you think we shall see more fun?"
32923dost thou know?"
32923dost thou not hear the deep lake sing?
32923dost thou think that, because I am King of the Watuta, I can forget our brotherhood?
32923ejaculated Selim, profoundly astonished;"what is this?"
32923etc.?
32923how came you here?"
32923in tears, my son?
32923is that what thou meanest by shaking thy head?
32923is this forest likely to last much longer?"
32923it is not as good as Paradise, then?"
32923little Selim my brother?"
32923look at him; do ye not see that dark form slowly moving past that big tree now?
32923must we give him up for ever?"
32923my friend, can I decide upon so important a subject as giving away thy property to this greedy infidel?
32923or any other of the lesser or intermediate points?"
32923or the young fawn frisking by the side of its mother?
32923replied Kalulu, embracing him in return,"has Kalulu, the son of Mostana, pleased thee?
32923said Khamis, to that florid- faced chief, who was proud of his intensely black and handsome beard,"How many canst thou muster?"
32923shall I suffer these tortures?
32923thou hast a good memory, Moto; but who, thinkest thou, is the happiest-- master Amer, up above there, or young master Selim, a prisoner?"
32923thou who art an Arab, and the son of an Arab?"
32923what has a slave to give?"
32923what is it?"
32923what sheitan( bad man, fiend) has done this?
32923where are ye now, chiefs of Zanzibar?"
32923where is it possible thou couldst have gained such ideas, child?
32923where?"
32923who can be strong after feeding on grain- food for sixteen days?
32923who shall sing thy praises?
32923why didst thou thus die?
