| 23528 | Good morning, Ida,he said, with a bow and a smile,"is that pretty little dog yours?" |
| 23528 | Here are five dollars; will that pay for Carlo?" |
| 23528 | May I keep him, dear Mamma?" |
| 23528 | The master of the dog, a tall, handsome boy, came running up,"Why, Carlo boy, what''s the matter?" |
| 23528 | Why, how in the world did you get in the water?" |

| 37511 | Did you give it to him because you thought I should call you a good boy?" |
| 37511 | Was I a good boy for so doing?" |
| 37511 | Was not Emily a kind little girl? |
| 37188 | Ca n''t I, as I pass,said he,"View the distant scenery? |
| 37188 | Nice dogs, friend, I''ll buy the two; How''ll a hundred dollars do? |
| 37188 | Now then,he spoke in a tranquil way,"Belovèd children, what do you say? |
| 37188 | Of what earthly use to me Can such brutes,he mutters,"be? |
| 37188 | What d''ye mean, to strike my creatur''? |
| 37188 | Are you content and are we agreed?" |
| 37188 | But, secondly, what good would all this do, Unless politeness were added thereto? |
| 37188 | Do they earn their vittles? |
| 37188 | Is that your plan?" |
| 37188 | Paul and Peter thought:"Old man, D''ye think us greenhorns? |
| 37188 | Shall that happen twice? |
| 37188 | What queer quadruped can he, Backing toward the doorway, be? |

| 37188 | Yet they live in close communion; And for that, in my opinion, They deserve some commendation; But will''t be of long duration? |

| 33775 | Did it remain on board the vessel? |
| 33775 | Do you suppose it could find its way back to its master? |
| 33775 | Do you suppose they really know what we have done for them? |
| 33775 | How long has this been done? |
| 33775 | Now,said Mrs. Robin to Jack,"I must go back to your sisters-- will you go with me?" |
| 33775 | O, does n''t it look pretty, grandpa? |
| 33775 | Were they alone? |
| 33775 | What does it mean? 33775 Why not?" |
| 33775 | Why not? |
| 33775 | Why, sis, do you want our chickens and birdies all carried off? |
| 33775 | Why, what are you doing here this bright morning? |
| 33775 | But where is Dick?" |
| 33775 | Grandpa, what would you do with this dead hawk?" |
| 33775 | run quick into the house, or you will be killed!''?]" |
| 35047 | But how will you get them back to the cage? |
| 35047 | Do you think so? |
| 35047 | Father,he exclaimed,"is n''t it real wicked to steal little birds from their nest?" |
| 35047 | How do you do? |
| 35047 | How many young ones were there? |
| 35047 | No, of course not,cried Fred;"but what did the others do, grandpa?" |
| 35047 | O grandpa,exclaimed Annie,"will you please to tell us a story to- day?" |
| 35047 | O, where is Fred? 35047 What are those?" |
| 35047 | What can they want? |
| 35047 | What is it? |
| 35047 | What makes you think they are yours? |
| 35047 | Why ca n''t we go at once? |
| 35047 | Do I express your opinion, my dear?" |
| 35047 | Have I ever told you how fast birds can fly?" |
| 35047 | When he saw his little sister, his face brightened, and he asked,"Do n''t you want me to cut you out some new dollies?" |
| 35047 | what do you think Fred is bringing?" |
| 32513 | ''Did I, Gran- ny? 32513 ''Now what''s to be done?'' |
| 32513 | ''Well, John,''she said,''have you had a good day?'' 32513 ''What? |
| 32513 | ''Why where_ can_ he be?'' 32513 But where must you go, Frisk?" |
| 32513 | But,said pa- pa,"if the show- man will sell him to me, do you not know it would be wrong to make the poor dog keep up his tricks?" |
| 32513 | Dear pa- pa, do buy one for us, wo n''t you? |
| 32513 | Do they? 32513 Do you feel quite warm?" |
| 32513 | ''Where could he have come from? |
| 32513 | * Pg 135 Added"closing quotation"to ending of"not a good dog?".] |
| 32513 | An''t that gay?'' |
| 32513 | But what shall we do to hide you?" |
| 32513 | Can you act?" |
| 32513 | Do n''t you think that would be a nice plan?" |
| 32513 | How have you been this long time?" |
| 32513 | Now tell me, how_ did_ you get off?" |
| 32513 | Then he gave a loud sniff, and said with an air:"Who are you? |
| 32513 | Was he not a good dog?" |
| 32513 | What if we were each to try to find a new place, and meet here in a month from now, to tell what has past in the mean time? |
| 32513 | Where did_ you_ come from?" |
| 32513 | Where_ did_ you learn all that?" |
| 32513 | Why, Jack, where_ did_ you hide all this time?" |
| 32513 | Wo n''t you pick me a few?'' |
| 32513 | You know Dash could not have a red coat on, and run on his hind- legs to bring Frisk back; and what would you do then?" |
| 32513 | and May, with her sweet blue eyes quite sad, cried out:"But you will let our Dash in, Mr. Show- man, wo n''t you? |
| 32513 | do n''t you think mam- ma would let us have him?'' |
| 32513 | he cried,''where did this dog come from?'' |
| 32513 | said Frisk in a sad tone,"will you speak to me now I am so poor? |
| 32513 | said Mop,"do n''t you call that prime? |
| 32513 | shake a paw with such an old flop- ear as you? |
| 32513 | what? |
| 32513 | why how, pa- pa?" |
| 20868 | On what day did we miss the dog? |
| 20868 | Take what? |
| 20868 | Where is Craven? |
| 20868 | Where is the wonder? |
| 20868 | Assault and robbery were perhaps not so mean as sneaking theft, but were they more allowable? |
| 20868 | But how? |
| 20868 | Can everybody say as much? |
| 20868 | Did any body ever see such a thing? |
| 20868 | Did she suppose there were no mice in London? |
| 20868 | Do you think master is on the road?" |
| 20868 | How and when did they come?" |
| 20868 | How can he have come? |
| 20868 | How did he ever come here?" |
| 20868 | I understood her language: it meant,"Oh, what shall I do? |
| 20868 | No wonder I had been so much excited; for who should be on the box but my old friend John? |
| 20868 | People had tried to bring me, and succeeded; why should not I try to bring Pussy? |
| 20868 | Perhaps she did not admire me quite so much as I admired myself; but perhaps she was right-- who knows? |
| 20868 | The Past I had lost, the Future was not in my power; and what remained to me? |
| 20868 | Then as for strange dogs, was I not there to protect her? |
| 20868 | Was it only the fear of blows that had kept me honest? |
| 20868 | Was my honesty worthy the name, if I was only honest when I had no temptation to be otherwise? |
| 20868 | What shall I do?" |
| 20868 | Who was to be the judge? |
| 20868 | Why, how did I come here myself? |
| 20868 | and did she not know that I would gladly shed the last drop of my blood in her cause, besides enjoying a fight on my own account? |
| 20868 | was I not a match for any dog? |
| 17961 | Did God make fishes? |
| 17961 | God blessed them;and what right have we to make their little lives miserable? |
| 17961 | Ask them if they think you so silly as to believe that walking in the summer sunshine will make you feel dark and cold? |
| 17961 | But surely this ought to be enough; and you would not be the cruel wretch to add to his pains? |
| 17961 | But what changed the animals so sadly as they must have been changed, to become what some of them are now? |
| 17961 | Can you not fancy how he must have admired the noble and beautiful creatures as they meekly and lovingly came to him? |
| 17961 | Can you put it to pain? |
| 17961 | Do you think He will forgive you? |
| 17961 | Does any boy''s conscience smite him at my naming the insects? |
| 17961 | Does not this alarm you? |
| 17961 | God made the animals to be loving and confiding towards man; and if this lonely creature wants me to be a friend to her, why should I not? |
| 17961 | He shook his head, and said,"No;"and what do you think was the reason he gave? |
| 17961 | I said to myself,"Why should I drive her away? |
| 17961 | Is it generous? |
| 17961 | Is it manly? |
| 17961 | Is it what you think God will approve? |
| 17961 | Perhaps you will ask, Has the cockatoo learned to sing? |
| 17961 | Was it not a wonderful and a beautiful sight? |
| 17961 | Why does a horse go as fast as he can when he is cruelly whipped, and his poor mouth wounded by the hard bit? |
| 17961 | Why does chaining or tying up a dog make him savage? |
| 17961 | Why should you? |
| 17961 | Will it make you wiser, or better, or happier to feel that you are giving pain to a poor creature? |
| 17961 | Yet you would not say that the grapes made the vine, would you? |
| 17961 | [ Illustration] Have you a cow? |
| 20741 | All alone? |
| 20741 | But do you not know who I am, and that I am forced to be your father''s greatest enemy? |
| 20741 | Have you been here long? |
| 20741 | Much work to do, eh? |
| 20741 | What have I done, Nip? |
| 20741 | What is it? |
| 20741 | After their thanks, Sir John began to talk to me about myself-- about my parents-- my wishes-- what I intended to do-- and what were my means? |
| 20741 | And what was the loud noise which startled me so that I had nearly let go my hold? |
| 20741 | Did I believe all the flattering praises which the lovely Fida had bestowed on me? |
| 20741 | Did you think there was not one sharp eye in Caneville to watch the saver, but that all were fixed upon the saved? |
| 20741 | Do n''t you know its the son of the old doggess who had you beat so soundly? |
| 20741 | Had I slept? |
| 20741 | I was awoke from this day- dream by the voice of an old, but very clean doggess, inquiring if my name was Mr. Job? |
| 20741 | If you were_ ashamed_ of your occupation, why had you chosen it? |
| 20741 | Is n''t she making a fuss? |
| 20741 | Is n''t this a game? |
| 20741 | Look at your shoulder, where the hair has been all knocked off with the blows?" |
| 20741 | That every tongue was so engaged in sympathizing with the mother, that not one was left to praise the brave? |
| 20741 | Was I still on the rolling water? |
| 20741 | What if I should suddenly dart on little Dicky, and make a meal of him? |
| 20741 | What though my weakness was so great that I tumbled over on to the beach and filled my mouth with sand? |
| 20741 | Where was I now? |
| 20741 | Where were the helpless puppies? |
| 20741 | Who does not? |
| 20741 | Why? |
| 20741 | [ Illustration: AFLOAT] Where was I hurrying to? |
| 20741 | change places with you, or with that poor fluttering bird?" |
| 20741 | dear Job, why? |
| 20741 | or, at least, hear the opinions of many before we decide ourselves? |
| 20741 | where is your courage, brother Job? |
| 58229 | Again: Does not she that is a kind mother know the wants and desires of her children? |
| 58229 | And is it not an unnatural operation that thus destroys many thousands of lives in embryo, over and above the"_ number unavoidably killed_"thereby? |
| 58229 | And is it not comparatively the same with Bees going through boxes C. and B. up into box A.? |
| 58229 | And where, I would fain know, is the humanity in increasing and obstructing the labours of these indefatigable, little insects? |
| 58229 | And, comparatively speaking, is it not so with_ driven_ Bees? |
| 58229 | And--- why? |
| 58229 | Are we not instructed by the sacred writings to go to the Bee and to the ant, and learn wisdom? |
| 58229 | But this mischief is corrected by ventilation: can then any reasonable man deny its powerful and useful effects in the management of Bees? |
| 58229 | But what do we behold when a box is taken from a storied pile?--what that in the least deserves to be termed humanity? |
| 58229 | But what is the consequence? |
| 58229 | But, notwithstanding what has been already said, the cottager may probably ask--"how can I feed my Bees without lifting up their hive?" |
| 58229 | Do not a thousand murders stare us in the face? |
| 58229 | I have been asked--"Of what use is ventilation in the domicil of Bees?" |
| 58229 | If practised, it will, however, soon cure itself: but is it not a strange practice for''The Voice of Humanity''to revive? |
| 58229 | Is not this, then, a rational and humane practice? |
| 58229 | Is there any excuse then for not knowing the Queen- Bee? |
| 58229 | Now, were it not for the drones-- those large bodied Bees-- what would become of the young larvà ¦ then in existence? |
| 58229 | Such inquirers might as reasonably ask what the mainspring of a watch has to do with the movements of that machine? |
| 58229 | The DOCTOR( and who so likely to prescribe properly for the case as the Doctor?) |
| 58229 | The question then is-- how are Bees to be managed, in order that they may be induced to rid themselves of these supernumeraries? |
| 58229 | Well might the little naturalist inquire--"what is that?" |
| 58229 | What then can be afterwards expected from such exhausted stocks but weakness and poverty? |
| 58229 | When, however, you do find the Queen in the box you are about to take off, is it not easy to draw the tin- slide up again? |
| 58229 | Why should the operator be veiled and muffled up and made sting- proof, if no conflict was expected-- if no deeds of violence were anticipated? |
| 58229 | Why should we lay the axe to the root of the tree that produces such good fruit? |
| 58229 | and I would ask further-- if Bees can bear this confinement with snow on the ground, why they can not bear it when there is no snow? |
| 58229 | and when its liberty is restored, does not consolation quickly follow? |
| 58229 | and will not the child''s screams show its affection for its fond parent? |
| 58229 | but who can tell how soon the bad weather may begin? |
| 35966 | About the dog? |
| 35966 | Has the knife touched him-- anywhere? |
| 35966 | In which direction is it? 35966 Papa,"said Adah, limping down the stairs,"where is Loveliness? |
| 35966 | Tired out, dear? |
| 35966 | What''ll the little_ gell_ dew? |
| 35966 | What''s de matter of de kid yonder, in de winder? |
| 35966 | Where is the janitor? 35966 Where''s me dog?" |
| 35966 | Will Loveliness be out and get wet? 35966 _ Gone?_""He''s dum goneter de college. |
| 35966 | Anything that I can do to help you, Professor Premice, in this-- real calamity-- How does the child bear it?" |
| 35966 | Did they cut you meat and warm you soup for you, and comfort you? |
| 35966 | Did they ever let you out to shi- shiver in''e wet and cold? |
| 35966 | Did you have a little baxet with blankets while you were away? |
| 35966 | Does_ she_ know?" |
| 35966 | Is there anybody to rub him dry and cuddle my Loveliness?" |
| 35966 | Or did she look so much more translucent, more pathetic, than on another day? |
| 35966 | Papa, Papa, will they be_ kind_ to Loveliness?" |
| 35966 | Papa, ca n''t you know enough to comfort you little girl? |
| 35966 | Papa, who will give him his little baxet, and cover him up warm? |
| 35966 | Papa? |
| 35966 | Really, I can not proceed in such a disturbance-- What_ is_ that noise?" |
| 35966 | Tell me about''e barber who shaved you hair so close,--was he_ kind_ to you?" |
| 35966 | The faculty and the neighbors did not ask,"How is the child?" |
| 35966 | The little girl was so weak that morning-- what might not have happened? |
| 35966 | Then she would ask the question that haunted her most:--"Mamma, who will put Loveliness into a little baxet to sleep, and cover him up? |
| 35966 | WHERE is my Loveliness?" |
| 35966 | Whatever''ll_ she_ do? |
| 35966 | Where''s my_ Love_-li- ness?" |
| 35966 | Which door did you say?" |
| 35966 | Who indeed? |
| 35966 | Who''ll tell_ her_?" |
| 35966 | Will he have warm milk for his supper? |
| 35966 | Will he shiver like''e black dog I saw to- day? |
| 35966 | You see-- Gentlemen? |
| 35966 | but always,"Have you heard from the dog?" |
| 35966 | who will be_ kind_ to Loveliness?" |

| 28552 | How do you know it? |
| 28552 | How do you like it? |
| 28552 | How far is it? |
| 28552 | How''s that? |
| 28552 | How''s that? |
| 28552 | I do n''t have to roll every minute to be a Rolling Stone, do I? |
| 28552 | I wo n''t have to fight that Carbolated Giant, will I? |
| 28552 | I''m glad of that,answered Twinkle;"but what will you do with a broken leg?" |
| 28552 | Is it far? |
| 28552 | Is that enough? |
| 28552 | Is_ that_ all you want? |
| 28552 | Really? |
| 28552 | Shall we go down? |
| 28552 | Solid what? |
| 28552 | Then I really must have heard you speak when I caught you; did n''t I? |
| 28552 | Then you think I''m dreaming? |
| 28552 | Very disagreeable dream, is n''t it? |
| 28552 | Was n''t that a fine, straight shot? 28552 Was your head gray?" |
| 28552 | We''ve come a good way, but it did n''t take us long to arrive, did it? |
| 28552 | Well, how does it strike you? |
| 28552 | Well, is n''t that the reason? |
| 28552 | Well, then, are n''t you Mister Woodchuck? |
| 28552 | Well, what are you doing here? |
| 28552 | Well, what are you staring at? |
| 28552 | Well,said Jim Crow, gruffly,"what''s the matter with you fellows? |
| 28552 | What are the ears for? |
| 28552 | What city is that? |
| 28552 | What do I care about my own folks? |
| 28552 | What do you feed to your horses? |
| 28552 | What do you suppose made me dream? |
| 28552 | What do you''spose is under it? |
| 28552 | What is it? |
| 28552 | What kind? |
| 28552 | What line of enchantment? |
| 28552 | What must I do? |
| 28552 | What were all you folks talking about? |
| 28552 | What will you do? |
| 28552 | What''s a Corrulated Giant? |
| 28552 | What''s inside you? |
| 28552 | What''s that? |
| 28552 | What''s that? |
| 28552 | What''s the difference? |
| 28552 | Where are we? |
| 28552 | Where are you going? |
| 28552 | Where is that? |
| 28552 | Where''s the flower? |
| 28552 | Where''s the key? |
| 28552 | Which-- this? |
| 28552 | Who do you suppose it is? |
| 28552 | Who ever heard of a stone rolling up hill? 28552 Who is Judge Stoneyheart?" |
| 28552 | Who''s going to make me? |
| 28552 | Who''s talking? |
| 28552 | Whom have we here? |
| 28552 | Why do n''t you set a trap for it? |
| 28552 | Why do they call it''Sugar- Loaf''? |
| 28552 | Why do you rob and steal? |
| 28552 | Why do you want to know? |
| 28552 | Why is it? |
| 28552 | Why not, my darling? |
| 28552 | Why not? |
| 28552 | Why not? |
| 28552 | Why not? |
| 28552 | Why should the child be afraid? |
| 28552 | Why should we? |
| 28552 | Why, I''ve always heard that a miss is as good as a mile, and you''re a miss, are you not? |
| 28552 | Wo n''t I step on some of you? |
| 28552 | Wo n''t he be sorry not to have his little children any more? |
| 28552 | Wo n''t it be dangerous? |
| 28552 | Wo n''t it hurt you? |
| 28552 | Wo n''t they hurt themselves? |
| 28552 | You do n''t for a moment think this is real, do you? |
| 28552 | You_ will_ throw rocks at me, will you? |
| 28552 | And I wonder what his thoughts were-- don''t you? |
| 28552 | And what is that?" |
| 28552 | Are you extra refined, my dear?" |
| 28552 | But are you willing to help me? |
| 28552 | But must you always be a mud- turtle?" |
| 28552 | But she managed to control her astonishment, and asked, in a voice that trembled a little:"Can you talk?" |
| 28552 | Chapter IV To the King''s Palace"WHAT, allow me to ask, is your grade of sugar?" |
| 28552 | Chapter VII The Mayor Gives a Luncheon"DON''T we have to go upstairs and out of doors?" |
| 28552 | Chapter VIII Jim Crow Has Time to Repent His Sins"WHERE are you going, my dear?" |
| 28552 | Have n''t you got tongues? |
| 28552 | Is n''t there a dome over the place where you live?" |
| 28552 | It''s even more respectable to be made of brown sugar, than to be hollow; do n''t you think so?" |
| 28552 | Just help me over this bump, will you?" |
| 28552 | Let''s see-- where is the thing?" |
| 28552 | So he said:"What are your laws?" |
| 28552 | That''s turning the tables, sure enough; is n''t it?" |
| 28552 | Then, addressing the turtle, she asked:"Did you say anything, a minute ago?" |
| 28552 | They call mountains funny names, do n''t they?" |
| 28552 | Up hill?" |
| 28552 | What have we here?" |
| 28552 | When this person opened the door and saw the Jack- Rabbit messenger- boy, he cried out:"Well, what do you mean by ringing my bell so violently? |
| 28552 | Why, what''s that?" |
| 28552 | Will you do this favor for me?" |
| 28552 | You''d like to see how we live, would n''t you?" |
| 28552 | You''re a Talking Girl, are you not?" |
| 28552 | You''re sometimes quiet, are n''t you?" |
| 28552 | and did n''t you go plump into the water, though?" |
| 28552 | cried Twinkle;"must I meet the Carbonated Giant?" |
| 28552 | did you hear what she called us, mommer? |
| 28552 | he chuckled hoarsely;"what do I care what you say about me? |
| 28552 | he exclaimed;"you''re spying upon me, are you?" |
| 28552 | she asked;"and did you have white whiskers?" |
| 28552 | she asked;"do n''t you know how to do sums?" |
| 28552 | sneered the lady woodchuck, looking at Twinkle in a very haughty way;"why will you bring such an animal into our garden, Leander? |
| 28552 | whispered Twinkle to herself;"how could all that have happened?" |
| 5730 | ''Are you a Band of Mercy boy?'' 5730 Anything else?" |
| 5730 | Are these your horses? |
| 5730 | Are you willing to take a good deal of trouble, Philip? |
| 5730 | Ca n''t You Talk? |
| 5730 | Can I help you about anything this morning? |
| 5730 | Can we get the children to a safe place? |
| 5730 | Can we not put her in a little tub and bathe her? |

| 5730 | Do you give meat to the hens? |
| 5730 | Do you suppose you can help me now? |
| 5730 | Do you think they do? |
| 5730 | Do you think,said Ned, with a superior smile,"that wars are going to stop because you disapprove of them?" |
| 5730 | Do you truly think that a man who stays at home can be as good a patriot as a soldier who goes to fight for his country? |
| 5730 | Does a bit need to be warmed? |
| 5730 | Does he need any food but hay and grass? |
| 5730 | Does he wriggle? 5730 He does n''t belong to you, does he?" |
| 5730 | How did you happen to own him? |
| 5730 | How do you keep him in such good condition? |
| 5730 | How far did she go with him? |
| 5730 | How often do you wash him? |
| 5730 | How was it? |
| 5730 | I said:''Does it belong to God?'' 5730 I suppose you know,"said Uncle Frank,"that a dog needs vegetable food, and that he can not keep well without it?" |
| 5730 | Is Chum a good watchdog? |
| 5730 | Is it easy to milk a cow? |
| 5730 | Is it possible this was once my little dog? |
| 5730 | May I go swimming with you then? |
| 5730 | May she eat meat and fish? |
| 5730 | May she have all the milk she wants? |
| 5730 | My dearest Chippy, how did you get out of the cage? |
| 5730 | Now who told you that? |
| 5730 | Please tell me,says Mr. Robin,"how I am to know that you care so much for some kinds of fruit, and so little for others? |
| 5730 | Well, Sammy? |
| 5730 | Were the ants doing any harm to you? 5730 What are you shooting, Frank?" |
| 5730 | What did you do that for? |
| 5730 | What do you mean by giving them green food? |
| 5730 | What do you think, Jack? |
| 5730 | What does he have to eat, and how often do you feed him? |
| 5730 | What does it cost, this garniture of death? 5730 What else do chickens eat?" |
| 5730 | What else may she have, mamma? |
| 5730 | What else must I do? |
| 5730 | What have they done to you? |
| 5730 | What is that yellow dish by the laundry door? |
| 5730 | What is this I am giving them? |
| 5730 | What shall I do? |
| 5730 | What would you like, and where shall I get it? |
| 5730 | Where are you going? |
| 5730 | Where does he sleep? |
| 5730 | Where is Rover? 5730 Where may she sleep?" |
| 5730 | Why did you chain him? |
| 5730 | Why do you have all these little houses besides your large hen- house? |
| 5730 | Why does a dog pant like that? |
| 5730 | Will his tail ever grow again? |
| 5730 | Will you let me feed them? |
| 5730 | Will you take me fishing this afternoon? |
| 5730 | Am I happy? |
| 5730 | And have you found the sheep?" |
| 5730 | And loved so well a high behavior, In man or maid, that thou from speech refrained, Nobility more nobly to repay? |
| 5730 | And the splendor of the Pashas there; What''s their pomp and riches? |
| 5730 | Are we not unjust to any living creature when we shrink from it because to us it does not seem beautiful? |
| 5730 | Are you coming with me, or shall I go alone?" |
| 5730 | As he passed me, whistling, I said:--"''Why did you pick up that pitcher?'' |
| 5730 | At rich men''s tables eaten bread and pulse? |
| 5730 | But can there be no other motive than a selfish one? |
| 5730 | But how can he fasten a nest of twigs to the upright chimney wall? |
| 5730 | Can any name too harsh be given to the men and women who turn adrift these timid, helpless creatures? |
| 5730 | Did you ever hear the story of Theodore Parker and the frogs?" |

| 5730 | Do n''t you know the old Welsh saying,''Happy is the man who is as wise as a pig''? |
| 5730 | Do n''t you remember, George, that day when we fought over the bag of marbles we found in an old cellar? |
| 5730 | Do n''t you think so, Robert?" |
| 5730 | Do the feathers look quite so pretty to you when you think of all this? |
| 5730 | Do they think we enjoy for our music Staccatoes of"scat"? |
| 5730 | Do you know the little woodmouse, That pretty little thing, That sits among the forest leaves, Or by the forest spring? |
| 5730 | Do you know who planted that little butternut tree in the field? |
| 5730 | Do you see, too, that the animals face the barn, instead of staring at a blank wall all day?" |
| 5730 | Do you think that a cage would make you happy if you had wings? |
| 5730 | Do you think, if you were I, you could be quite happy? |
| 5730 | Does not the horse on the right look quite as well as the other? |
| 5730 | Does the way grow harder? |
| 5730 | Hast thou named all the birds without a gun? |
| 5730 | Have the birds no rights which we are bound to respect? |
| 5730 | Have you ever looked at your cat''s eyes? |
| 5730 | Have you ever seen his cradle swaying from an elm branch? |
| 5730 | Have you ever thought what the world would be without the birds? |
| 5730 | He does n''t look like my other horses, does he?" |
| 5730 | He said as plainly as he could,"Am I not a clever dog?" |
| 5730 | He was delighted when Sandy said,"Would you like to go for a walk?" |
| 5730 | How do we know so much about them? |
| 5730 | How does Cruelty to Animals affect Meat, Milk, and Fish? |
| 5730 | How shall we protect the Birds? |
| 5730 | How then do you suppose he gathers the twigs for his nest? |
| 5730 | How would you like to be tied to a kennel all day, with no chance to run about? |
| 5730 | I do not fear for thee, though wroth The tempest rushes through the sky: For are we not God''s children both, Thou, little sandpiper, and I? |
| 5730 | If no woman would buy these feathers, do you suppose that milliners would keep them for sale? |
| 5730 | In return, what does he ask? |
| 5730 | In this free land of ours shall we deny freedom to the bird, which, above all other creatures, needs space and sunshine? |
| 5730 | In what way are her eyes different from ours? |
| 5730 | Is a spider an insect? |
| 5730 | Is it comfortable to feel that for the sake of being in the fashion you have been the cause of such distress? |
| 5730 | Is it not wonderful how they can make this long journey without a compass or map to guide them? |
| 5730 | Is it not worth while to think how much better it is to have no caged pets at all? |
| 5730 | Is the mother hen always fond of her chickens?" |
| 5730 | Is the pleasure of wearing a dead bird enough to pay for this suffering? |
| 5730 | Let us not be content with the smaller question, What can the birds do for us? |
| 5730 | Loved the wood- rose, and left it on its stalk? |
| 5730 | May I keep her for my own?" |
| 5730 | Must their claim to life be based on the fact that they do us good or give us pleasure? |
| 5730 | Oh, why did you follow? |
| 5730 | One of the party came up alone and we inquired:''Where is Lincoln?'' |
| 5730 | Poor harmless insect, thither fly, And life''s short hour enjoy;''Tis all thou hast, and why should I That little all destroy? |
| 5730 | Several appear to be looking at something off to the right-- Rover?] |
| 5730 | She turned as she saw Robert, and said pleasantly,"Do you want to help me feed the chickens?" |
| 5730 | Small Janet sits weeping''mid the daisies;"Little sister sweet, Must you follow Roger?" |
| 5730 | THE GOLDFINCH Have you ever noticed the downy white seeds of the thistle? |
| 5730 | Then he heard his mother say:"Why, my boy, what are you dreaming about? |
| 5730 | This is not a very good way to treat a friend, is it? |
| 5730 | To be treated, now, just as you treat us,-- The question is pat,-- To take just our chances in living, Would YOU be a cat? |
| 5730 | To what warm shelter canst thou fly? |
| 5730 | Unarmed, faced danger with a heart of trust? |
| 5730 | What are the Principal Lessons taught by"Black Beauty"? |
| 5730 | What becomes of the poor little defenseless things? |
| 5730 | What did that boy say to you about the frogs?" |
| 5730 | What else did he say?" |
| 5730 | What shall we do? |
| 5730 | What would have happened if I had not been here, I should like to know?" |
| 5730 | What would spring be without the bluebird, or June without the oriole? |
| 5730 | Where have you come from, old fellow, and where is your master?" |
| 5730 | Wherefore do you stop? |
| 5730 | Who would n''t?" |
| 5730 | Why do n''t they let me in? |
| 5730 | Why do they shut me out in the cold? |
| 5730 | Why do we see these birds so seldom? |
| 5730 | Why not protect your fruits by planting wild varieties that we like?" |
| 5730 | Why should my tyrant will suspend A life by wisdom giv''n, Or sooner bid thy being end Than was designed by Heav''n? |
| 5730 | Why? |
| 5730 | With forehead star, and silver tail, And three white feet to match, The gay, half- broken, sorrel colt, Which one of us could catch? |
| 5730 | Would the boy have been so proud of his good shot if he had known the whole story? |
| 5730 | Would you not think that they would be very tired after flying all night? |
| 5730 | You have always found it there, have n''t you, old fellow?" |
| 5730 | [ Illustration: Caption:"Ca n''t you talk?" |
| 5730 | but ask ourselves the larger one, What can we do for the birds? |
| 5730 | if that boy could know How glad they were when they saw him go, Say, say, do you think next day He could possibly steal those eggs away? |
| 5730 | if you wo n''t fight?" |
| 5730 | say, do yon hear? |
| 5730 | was there ever so merry a note? |
| 5730 | was there no better way A moment''s joy to gain Than to make sorrow that must mar the day With such despairing pain? |
| 39554 | ''"Is your name,"she said quite eagerly,--"is your name-- your first name''Jack''?" |
| 39554 | ''"Strangeness,"''Taisy repeated, while Geordie and I looked up in surprise,--''strangeness, with his own master holding him?'' |
| 39554 | ''A gypsy,''mamma exclaimed in great surprise;''how has she managed to get inside the grounds? |
| 39554 | ''And did Aunt Emmeline know about it?'' |
| 39554 | ''And getting shot by mistake for a rabbit?'' |
| 39554 | ''And how long may you stay?'' |
| 39554 | ''Are we to have two?'' |
| 39554 | ''Are you thinking of papa?'' |
| 39554 | ''But what do you want to see me for?'' |
| 39554 | ''But why did you, then?'' |
| 39554 | ''But, my child,''said she,''where----''''Where are you going to put me?'' |
| 39554 | ''But, my dear child, I must interrupt you,''said papa smiling,''before you go on to the"bits,"do tell us what the whole is?'' |
| 39554 | ''But,''said Geordie,''you''re forgetting the servants?'' |
| 39554 | ''Did she not wake you then?'' |
| 39554 | ''Did she say how she got into the grounds?'' |
| 39554 | ''Did you know of it, then?'' |
| 39554 | ''Did you make a voyage together?'' |
| 39554 | ''Did you meet on board ship, do you mean?'' |
| 39554 | ''Do n''t you think it was still cleverer of me to remember his name?'' |
| 39554 | ''Does he know about-- about our having to leave Eastercove?'' |
| 39554 | ''GEORDIE STOOD UP AND WAVED HIS CAP''52 V.''WHAT_ CAN_ SHE MEAN?'' |
| 39554 | ''Geordie,''I said at last,''what are you staring at so? |
| 39554 | ''Has it anything to do with the boy? |
| 39554 | ''Has the railway frightened him?'' |
| 39554 | ''How can I tell?'' |
| 39554 | ''How did the gypsy get through the lodge gates?'' |
| 39554 | ''How did you get through the gates?'' |
| 39554 | ''How have you managed to get together all that?'' |
| 39554 | ''How quietly you came,''I said;''and oh, mamma,_ does n''t_ it remind you of_ Les Ailes de Courage_?'' |
| 39554 | ''I ca n''t shake hands, Taisy-- but how are you?'' |
| 39554 | ''I do so like it, but-- didn''t you say-- something about papa-- and you and the sea, being mixed up?'' |
| 39554 | ''IT''S DREADFUL, ISN''T IT?'' |
| 39554 | ''Ida,''he said at last,''what are you thinking of? |
| 39554 | ''Ida,''said Geordie after a bit,''it''s dreadful, is n''t it?'' |
| 39554 | ''Is he so nervous?'' |
| 39554 | ''Is it all right?'' |
| 39554 | ''Is it big enough to hold both Denny and me together?'' |
| 39554 | ''Is it some one else coming to stay with us? |
| 39554 | ''Is it-- oh, is it, anything wrong with papa?'' |
| 39554 | ''It''ll be worse for us and for mamma than for papa, wo n''t it, Dods?'' |
| 39554 | ''It_ is_ cosy, is n''t it, mamma?'' |
| 39554 | ''Let me see which are the smallest, to take up the least room? |
| 39554 | ''Mamma need not say,"_ Among_ you, will he be looked after?"'' |
| 39554 | ''Mamma, do n''t you think he need n''t have said that?'' |
| 39554 | ''May I go with you when you do? |
| 39554 | ''May n''t I come with you, mamma?'' |
| 39554 | ''May we not join Mrs. Trevor on the terrace, for I suppose it is there you are sitting?'' |
| 39554 | ''My dearest child,''she said,''what_ is_ the matter? |
| 39554 | ''My dears,''she said, addressing everybody as far as I could make out,''will some of you disentangle me? |
| 39554 | ''Of course about a balloon is quite a joke, is n''t it?'' |
| 39554 | ''Shall I send some one to see you through the lodge gates?'' |
| 39554 | ''Shall we not have_ any_ servants then?'' |
| 39554 | ''That is n''t all, is it, mamma?'' |
| 39554 | ''The dog is_ not_ mad then? |
| 39554 | ''Then the young lady''s?'' |
| 39554 | ''Then, do you mean that you want me to go with you when you call on the Trevors, mamma?'' |
| 39554 | ''Then,''said mamma,''you had no sort of idea that the thing was the least possible?'' |
| 39554 | ''Unless,''said Geordie slowly,--''unless you would let me really camp out, mamma? |
| 39554 | ''Was Esmé to have come again?'' |
| 39554 | ''Was he chained up? |
| 39554 | ''Was she?'' |
| 39554 | ''We were coming to see you all,''said Miss Trevor smiling;''do you think your mother is at home and disengaged?'' |
| 39554 | ''Well,''began Geordie, after we were all seated comfortably at the table,''what is the interesting thing you have to tell about, Ida? |
| 39554 | ''What are you all about?'' |
| 39554 | ''What are you so sure about?'' |
| 39554 | ''What can that be?'' |
| 39554 | ''What can that be?'' |
| 39554 | ''What do you want to see me for?'' |
| 39554 | ''What is it, my little girl?'' |
| 39554 | ''What''s his name, Rolf?'' |
| 39554 | ''What_ can_ she mean?'' |
| 39554 | ''When will you ask about the parish room?'' |
| 39554 | ''Where are you going, Ida?'' |
| 39554 | ''Where shall we go?'' |
| 39554 | ''Who can have done it?'' |
| 39554 | ''Why does n''t he let him go? |
| 39554 | ''Will the people who are coming to live here have the hut too?'' |
| 39554 | ''Yes,''said mamma, glancing again at her letter;''but you know Rolf?'' |
| 39554 | ''You do n''t mean to say that your tea- things at the hut are all broken?'' |
| 39554 | ''You lazy little beggar, why do n''t you get up and go for a run? |
| 39554 | After that it would have been impossible to go on being vexed with any one, would n''t it? |
| 39554 | And Esmé''s just a----''''A what?'' |
| 39554 | And the curious, mingled sort of light in the room, faint and dreamy, though clear too, made me think to myself,''The sun is saying,"How do you do?" |
| 39554 | And the little ones too, Ida?'' |
| 39554 | And very likely, Doddie, things_ will_ get broken, more than----''''What are you talking about, my dear child?'' |
| 39554 | Another still smaller wild beast of some kind, or what? |
| 39554 | Are they not beginning to take away the iron room already?'' |
| 39554 | Boys, is there a gun about the place?'' |
| 39554 | But I wonder who the new one coming can be?'' |
| 39554 | But mother is quite strong except for rheumatism, and really who_ could_ have rheumatism in this dry, fragrant air? |
| 39554 | But now,''and she held out her hand,''you will let me tell your lines? |
| 39554 | But there''s one point you''ve forgotten, Ida, and mamma too, have n''t you?--where is this wonderful chair affair to be kept?'' |
| 39554 | But, auntie-- I was going to tell you all about it to- day-- you believe me, do n''t you?'' |
| 39554 | CHAPTER V''WHAT_ CAN_ SHE MEAN?'' |
| 39554 | Can he have broken loose?'' |
| 39554 | Did balloons come in vans, and what had we to do with them? |
| 39554 | Did n''t you hear the rattling, Mr. Trevor-- didn''t you see--_this_?'' |
| 39554 | Do you dislike this boy-- what is his name-- oh yes, Rolf-- Rolf Dacre-- that she writes about?'' |
| 39554 | For you would be very sorry not to go on with Mr. Lloyd-- wouldn''t you, Dods?'' |
| 39554 | Has he bitten you?'' |
| 39554 | How can you imagine such a thing? |
| 39554 | How would that do? |
| 39554 | I could rig up a little tent, or-- I would n''t much mind sleeping in Barnes''s hut?'' |
| 39554 | I do n''t think I shall mind that part of it so_ very_ much, Dods-- shall you?'' |
| 39554 | I exclaimed, horrified,''where_ did_ you learn anything so vulgar--"last Sunday as ever was"? |
| 39554 | I forget if I said that we happened to be in the middle of our Easter holidays just then, which was most lucky, was it not? |
| 39554 | I was velly neely drowned, was n''t I? |
| 39554 | I-- I only bought him this morning from the keeper at Millings-- you know Millings?'' |
| 39554 | If----''''If what?'' |
| 39554 | Is he quite good with strangers?'' |
| 39554 | Is he your son, or your grandson?'' |
| 39554 | Is it any use beginning before papa and mamma come down, do you think?'' |
| 39554 | Is it anything particular?'' |
| 39554 | Is your inspiration the old parish room? |
| 39554 | It''s the jolliest thing you ever saw, Dods-- isn''t it, mamma? |
| 39554 | Might n''t you perhaps gain a scholarship, or whatever you call them, that would make school cost less?'' |
| 39554 | Oh,_ do n''t_ you wish, Ida, we could live here always?'' |
| 39554 | Rolf by this time was saying:''Will you introduce me to your cousins? |
| 39554 | Shall we sit down here a little? |
| 39554 | Soldier,"she said,"will you tell me your name, so that mamma can write to thank you?" |
| 39554 | That does sound very''Irish,''does it not? |
| 39554 | The iron room they want to get rid of? |
| 39554 | The only thing is-- Why did you not unmask yourself at once? |
| 39554 | There is n''t really very much more to do, is there? |
| 39554 | There might be a partitioned- off little room for me, and a large curtain might do to separate mamma from you and Esmé?'' |
| 39554 | They smiled at us very kindly, and papa said in what he meant to be a cheery voice--''Well, young people, what have you been about? |
| 39554 | This sounds rather hard upon him, does n''t it, considering he was fully a year younger than she? |
| 39554 | Was n''t it sweet of her to think that? |
| 39554 | Was n''t that nice of him? |
| 39554 | Well, one morning, ever so long ago, as I said----''''Do you mean fifty years ago, or a hundred perhaps?'' |
| 39554 | What could he mean? |
| 39554 | What was it? |
| 39554 | What was it?'' |
| 39554 | What would mamma say if she heard you?'' |
| 39554 | What_ do_ you think it is? |
| 39554 | Where can they all be, I wonder?'' |
| 39554 | Where_ could_ we put any one?'' |
| 39554 | Will you ever forgive me? |
| 39554 | Will you join us at our schoolroom tea and forgive its being rather a scramble after all this upset?'' |
| 39554 | You and papa will come and have tea there, wo n''t you? |
| 39554 | _ Is_ it nonsense, Ida, about men and boys never thinking about their clothes? |
| 39554 | _ What''s the use?_''''Oh, Dods! |
| 16052 | ''And the caterpillars came down here?'' 16052 ''Did you ever meet with a too benevolent old gentleman wondering where on earth his sticks go to?'' |
| 16052 | ''How did you pass the sentries?'' 16052 ''How will they be punished?'' |
| 16052 | ''I suppose it does,''said the beetle politely;''will you walk in?'' 16052 ''Take a little tea, my love?'' |
| 16052 | ''The what?'' 16052 ''What are those sticks doing here?'' |
| 16052 | ''What are you doing?'' 16052 ''What are you staring at?'' |
| 16052 | ''What are you talking about?'' 16052 ''What''s that, my dear?'' |
| 16052 | ''Who is it, then?'' 16052 ''Why?'' |
| 16052 | And about the Owl? |
| 16052 | And pray do you think that the Brownies, whoever they may be, come into the house to save trouble for the idle healthy little boys who live in it? 16052 And so you have complained of them?" |
| 16052 | And then? |
| 16052 | And what are Brownies like, pray? |
| 16052 | And what can the word be? 16052 And what did you expect to see?" |
| 16052 | And what was he like? |
| 16052 | And what was that familiar figure among the rest, in a yellow silk dress and maroon velvet cloak and hood trimmed with black lace? 16052 And what was the Christmas tree like?" |
| 16052 | And what would you do meanwhile? |
| 16052 | And which of the three styles do you prefer? |
| 16052 | And who sets breakfast, and puts my things in order? |
| 16052 | And who sorts your grandmother''s scraps? |
| 16052 | And-- it is only common charity to ask-- how about North America? |
| 16052 | Are crackers all that you have for us, sir? |
| 16052 | Are there no Brownies but children? |
| 16052 | Bairns are a blessing,said the old lady tartly,"_ I told you so._"*****"That''s not the end, is it?" |
| 16052 | Be idle, I suppose; and what do you suppose is the use of a man''s having children if they do nothing to help him? 16052 Brownies?" |
| 16052 | But could n''t you make a little more end? |
| 16052 | But did you really and truly hear it? |
| 16052 | But how about the thrush? 16052 But how was it you never did it before?" |
| 16052 | But is it really and truly so? |
| 16052 | But what have the boys to do with it? |
| 16052 | But what must I say of the Boggarts? 16052 But what will you do?" |
| 16052 | But when I have done all my tasks,Amelia said;"will they let me go then?" |
| 16052 | But when do you do it? |
| 16052 | But who found my measure? |
| 16052 | But why do n''t the others work? |
| 16052 | Ca n''t you stop that fooling? |
| 16052 | Can I do nothing to get you back to your old home? |
| 16052 | Can we hold revel here to- night? |
| 16052 | Can you dance on glass and crockery sherds? |
| 16052 | Could you? |
| 16052 | Did n''t I say I should? |
| 16052 | Did she never come back? |
| 16052 | Did you ever go, Granny? |
| 16052 | Did you find out the word? |
| 16052 | Did you never cry? |
| 16052 | Do I not know the note of one bird from another? 16052 Do n''t they look splendid?" |
| 16052 | Do n''t you know, Deor? |
| 16052 | Do n''t you remember me? |
| 16052 | Do n''t you suppose I can light a fire? 16052 Do you ever think of old times? |
| 16052 | Do you know the''Hop, Skip, and a Jump''dance? |
| 16052 | Do you know this? |
| 16052 | Do you not care for crackers, Jim? |
| 16052 | Do you think I shall be allowed to go home now? |
| 16052 | Europe gone, did you say? 16052 Every one of us?" |
| 16052 | Every one of you.--Now, Tiny, how about that work? |
| 16052 | Good, was n''t it? |
| 16052 | Has he been as usual? |
| 16052 | Have I any other tasks? |
| 16052 | Have I not reason? |
| 16052 | Have you found everything? |
| 16052 | Have you heard it? |
| 16052 | How did you hear it? |
| 16052 | How is it possible,was the reply,"when there is not a place where one can so much as set down an acorn cup, for Amelia''s broken victuals?" |
| 16052 | I mean, did it really happen? |
| 16052 | I think you do them; what are you here for? |
| 16052 | In summer, do I say? 16052 Is all that true?" |
| 16052 | Is it safe? |
| 16052 | Is it? |
| 16052 | Is that the very very end? |
| 16052 | Is the Brownie a merman,said Tommy, wriggling himself along the beam,"that he lives under water?" |
| 16052 | Is there any supper, Father? |
| 16052 | Is there really nothing to eat, Granny? |
| 16052 | Is this a vision of the past? |
| 16052 | My dear, what_ are_ you screaming about? |
| 16052 | Not another earthquake, I hope? |
| 16052 | Nothing else to wish for, eh? |
| 16052 | Nothing to cry about, at any rate? |
| 16052 | Now, what do you want? |
| 16052 | O Granny dear, why do n''t they? 16052 O Granny, we are so hungry and miserable, what can it matter?" |
| 16052 | Of course it did,said his brother;"do n''t you believe it?" |
| 16052 | One night? |
| 16052 | Playthings? |
| 16052 | Please,said Tommy, who felt rather re- assured,"can you tell me where to find the Brownies, and how to get one to come and live with us?" |
| 16052 | Rather oppressive, eh? |
| 16052 | Shall we kick it into the house? |
| 16052 | Tell us more about Brownie, please,said Johnnie,"Did he ever live with anybody else?" |
| 16052 | That is not bad, is it? |
| 16052 | Then what did you ask for food for before you were hungry? |
| 16052 | There she comes,said his wife, looking out of the window,"by the garden- gate, with a great basket; what has she been after?" |
| 16052 | This very night? |
| 16052 | Very nice; eh, Deordie? |
| 16052 | Was that_ he_, Granny? |
| 16052 | Was there an angel? |
| 16052 | What are these? |
| 16052 | What are you pleased about now? |
| 16052 | What can I do for you, my poor bairns? |
| 16052 | What could I do, Grandmother? |
| 16052 | What did he do? |
| 16052 | What did you see in the mere? |
| 16052 | What do you think I have found? |
| 16052 | What do you think of it all, Mother? |
| 16052 | What do you think? |
| 16052 | What do you want? 16052 What do you want?" |
| 16052 | What for? |
| 16052 | What is the matter? |
| 16052 | What is the matter? |
| 16052 | What is the use of having Brownies if they do nothing to help us? |
| 16052 | What kind of a bird is this on my letter? |
| 16052 | What makes Father so cross, Granny? |
| 16052 | What nonsense have you been telling them, Mother? |
| 16052 | What was he like, Granny? |
| 16052 | What''s that about crackers? |
| 16052 | What''s that? |
| 16052 | What''s that? |
| 16052 | What''s this? |
| 16052 | When I was your age? 16052 Where are these to be kicked to?" |
| 16052 | Where do they live? |
| 16052 | Where have you been? |
| 16052 | Where is your nose? 16052 Where?" |
| 16052 | Where_ is_ Brownie? |
| 16052 | Whereabouts? 16052 Who knows the riches of a wood in summer?" |
| 16052 | Who''s Tommy Trout? |
| 16052 | Who''s the Old Owl, Granny? |
| 16052 | Why not? |
| 16052 | Will you be quiet? |
| 16052 | Will you mind your own business, and go to sleep? |
| 16052 | Would you mind our setting a pan of water, Father? |
| 16052 | You never had one here, I suppose? |
| 16052 | You''ll_ what_? |
| 16052 | You''re here, Doctor; are n''t you? |
| 16052 | You''re not so very angry at the sight of me to- day, my little lady, eh? |
| 16052 | _ Are they_? |
| 16052 | _ Is_ Europe found? |
| 16052 | ''How dare you?'' |
| 16052 | ''What are you doing here at this time o''night?'' |
| 16052 | ''What are_ you_ doing here at this time o''night?'' |
| 16052 | ''What did you give for_ that_?'' |
| 16052 | ''What do you mean?'' |
| 16052 | ''What''s a shilling? |
| 16052 | ''Who pulled her out? |
| 16052 | ''Why do they lend them to their grandchildren? |
| 16052 | *****"And did my godmother''s grandmother believe that Amelia had really been with the fairies, or did she think it was all fever ravings?" |
| 16052 | And did the tutor speak? |
| 16052 | And what right had you to cut short a life that might have been useful?'' |
| 16052 | And who are you, pray?" |
| 16052 | Any more news? |
| 16052 | Are you quite sure you did n''t see him?" |
| 16052 | Besides, it''s a moonlight night, and who knows what''s abroad? |
| 16052 | But when Brownie saw the things, he put them on, and dancing round the kitchen, sang,''What have we here? |
| 16052 | But why do you want to know?" |
| 16052 | But why not? |
| 16052 | Ca n''t you stand straight, man?'' |
| 16052 | Can we any of us forget the treatment we received at her hands? |
| 16052 | Can you dance?" |
| 16052 | Can you jump? |
| 16052 | Did n''t he like the new clothes?" |
| 16052 | Did the spirit whose body was with the dead, stand that morning by the body whose spirit was with the dead, and pity him? |
| 16052 | Did they give him any wages, Granny?" |
| 16052 | Did you ever think of what I might have been? |
| 16052 | Do n''t you pity him?" |
| 16052 | Do you remember that beautiful toy of yours--''The Besieged City''? |
| 16052 | Do you remember the old house, and the fun we used to have? |
| 16052 | Do you see that box? |
| 16052 | Europe and North America were behind the book- case; and, would you believe it? |
| 16052 | Have you given it to me? |
| 16052 | Here he blew again, and a head was put out as before; on which he said,"Can we hold revel here to- night?" |
| 16052 | How can you be such a silly little goose?" |
| 16052 | I had reached the open place with the lights and the music; but how shall I describe the spectacle that I beheld? |
| 16052 | I thought of the beetle, and said civilly,''Can you tell me, sir, if this is Fairyland?'' |
| 16052 | I wish I were a big man, and could make a fortune.--Will that do, Granny?" |
| 16052 | If you are the Brownie, who has been tidying the kitchen lately?" |
| 16052 | Is it a bargain?" |
| 16052 | Is it the same Tommy Trout, Doctor? |
| 16052 | Mary and I did tidy them once or twice; but the boys never put anything away, you know, so what''s the good?" |
| 16052 | Must all legends be about the loves and sorrows of our self- satisfied race alone?" |
| 16052 | Not bear you? |
| 16052 | Now go and ask Mother if we may go.--Will you let me come, Doctor,"she inquired,"if I do as you said?" |
| 16052 | Oh, I know--''What have we here? |
| 16052 | Or was it the voice of some sea- monster sounding in his ears? |
| 16052 | Perhaps your Sauciness is not quite aware how things are distributed in this world?" |
| 16052 | Shall I say yes or no?'' |
| 16052 | That is a matter of taste: what is a bad ending?" |
| 16052 | The Tailor''s voice rose to a pitch of desperation--"But if you did the work,"he shouted,"_ where is the Brownie?_""Here!" |
| 16052 | The laughter was mixed with singing, and he heard the words--"What have we here? |
| 16052 | Was it a magician''s powder? |
| 16052 | Was it all a dream? |
| 16052 | Was the powder one of those strange compounds that act upon the brain? |
| 16052 | Were they to stand inactive all the day? |
| 16052 | What are you grubbing at that rat- hole for?" |
| 16052 | What can it mean? |
| 16052 | What could be more meagre? |
| 16052 | What could this"awfully jolly"Doctor be thinking of to make him cry? |
| 16052 | What have you been thinking of?" |
| 16052 | What housework do the boys ever do but looking after the baby? |
| 16052 | What is the idea?" |
| 16052 | What is the matter? |
| 16052 | What is the row about, and how came you to get into it?" |
| 16052 | What was it Granny said he sang when he got his clothes? |
| 16052 | What will he say? |
| 16052 | What''s the good of asking boys to do anything? |
| 16052 | What''s the good of keeping this old basin? |
| 16052 | What, he asked, could be more delightful, more perfect than such a gathering as this, of the family circle round the Christmas hearth? |
| 16052 | Where are your wheels?" |
| 16052 | Where is the real Brownie, I say?" |
| 16052 | Where is your mane? |
| 16052 | Where''s your brother now?" |
| 16052 | Who could have believed it?" |
| 16052 | Who knows them? |
| 16052 | Who knows what I might have done? |
| 16052 | Who knows? |
| 16052 | Why did n''t they challenge you?'' |
| 16052 | Why do n''t you tell us about the Fairies?" |
| 16052 | Why do they do nothing?" |
| 16052 | Will_ that_ do?" |
| 16052 | Wilt thou be mine?" |
| 16052 | Wilt thou be mine?" |
| 16052 | Wilt thou be mine?''" |
| 16052 | Wo n''t you even say good- bye?" |
| 16052 | You do n''t care, do you? |
| 16052 | You do n''t mean to say you have any toys here? |
| 16052 | You have n''t such a thing as a fly anywhere about you, have you?'' |
| 16052 | You know I''m not a Brownie, am I?" |
| 16052 | You never tried walking on anything of that sort, did you?'' |
| 16052 | You remember what I was, do you? |
| 16052 | You, my children? |
| 16052 | _ Why_ wo n''t you tell us about the Fairies?" |
| 16052 | and the tutor whom you pelted with horse- chestnuts when you were a little girl? |
| 16052 | asked Deordie,"to tell us what became of them all?" |
| 16052 | said Tiny, as they stood by the garden- gate,"how long do you think gentlemen''s pocket- handkerchiefs take to wear out?" |
| 16052 | said he,"you can dance, can you?" |
| 16052 | said the Owl,"that''s it, is it? |
| 16052 | said the dwarf, and went on to the third, where all happened as before; and he asked the old question,"Can we hold revel here to- night?" |
| 16052 | she added,"what is the matter with my precious child? |
| 16052 | that''s you, is it?'' |
| 16052 | what is a Christmas tree?" |
| 16052 | why did he go?" |
| 16052 | why do n''t you speak? |
| 12879 | And how, then,rejoined the chief,"would the case have been decided in your country?" |
| 12879 | And if it do, And never prompt the bray of noisy brass, What need''st thou rue? 12879 And thou( addressing the other) a daughter?" |
| 12879 | And wilt thou, little bird, go with us? 12879 But what does it there, sister, tell me, Sitting lonely against the black sky?" |
| 12879 | Do you eat gold in this country? |
| 12879 | Do you ne''er think what wondrous beings these? 12879 Do you not hear the Aziola cry? |
| 12879 | Does it rain there? |
| 12879 | Does the sun shine on that country? |
| 12879 | Give me something this cold day? |
| 12879 | High over the sails, high over the mast, Who shall gainsay these joys? 12879 O pretty bird, do you not weary Of this gay summer so long and dreary?" |
| 12879 | Oh, came you from the isles of Greece, Or from the banks of Seine? 12879 Oh, what is the matter with Robin, That makes her cry round here all day? |
| 12879 | Oh, what was that, sister? 12879 Oh, where does faithful Gelert roam? |
| 12879 | Only death? 12879 Seest thou not,"Our Lord said,"how the heart of this poor bird"Grows by her love, greater than his who rides Full- face against the spear- blades? |
| 12879 | Think you my sentence unjust? |
| 12879 | What bird is that? 12879 What does he call now, loud and plain?" |
| 12879 | What is that great bird, sister, tell me, Perched high on the top of the crag? |
| 12879 | What shall I do to be forever known? |
| 12879 | What shall I do to gain eternal life? |
| 12879 | What shall I do, lest life in silence pass? |
| 12879 | Who loved me, when I was weak and old? 12879 Who pitied me, when I grew sick and poor, And neighbors turned me from their door? |
| 12879 | _ What_ did Don do? |
| 12879 | ''Afraid you shall fall?'' |
| 12879 | ''Tis very cruel, too, Said little Alice Neal; I wonder if she knew How sad the bird would feel? |
| 12879 | ***** CAN THEY SUFFER? |
| 12879 | ***** DO YOU KNOW? |

| 12879 | 1- 4. Who_ is_ a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? |
| 12879 | A crimson speck in the bright blue sky, Do you search for the secret of heaven''s deep glow? |
| 12879 | Already thou hast borne to forsake thy fondly loved brothers, and Draupadi; Why, then, forsakest thou not the dog? |
| 12879 | And after that-- thou dost not care? |

| 12879 | Are these elements that spring In a daisy''s blossoming, Or in long dark grasses wave Plume- like o''er your favorite''s grave? |
| 12879 | Are these less sad and real? |
| 12879 | Birds, joyous birds of the wandering wing Whence is it ye come with the flowers of spring? |
| 12879 | But I? |
| 12879 | But are there tame animals in the country that live on the grass and green herbs?" |
| 12879 | But long it wo n''t be, Unless we are as good as can be?" |
| 12879 | But suppose the case were otherwise, what could it avail? |
| 12879 | Ca n''t you guess, sir? |
| 12879 | Can I find one to guide me, so faithful and kind? |
| 12879 | Can I see a falling tear, And not feel my sorrow''s share? |
| 12879 | Can I see another''s grief, And not seek for kind relief? |
| 12879 | Can I see another''s woe, And not be in sorrow too? |
| 12879 | Can a father see his child Weep, nor be with sorrow filled? |
| 12879 | Can a mother sit and hear An infant groan, an infant fear? |
| 12879 | Can the woodpecker be coming After sap? |
| 12879 | Care for it? |
| 12879 | Come, my feathered friend, again? |
| 12879 | Did He who made the lamb make thee? |
| 12879 | Did ever man evince more devoted affection? |
| 12879 | Did fortune try thee? |
| 12879 | Did he go through the town, Or go sneaking aroun''Through hedges and byways, with head hanging down? |
| 12879 | Did he push when he was uncurled, A golden foot or a fairy horn Through his dim water- world? |
| 12879 | Did he stand at the diamond door Of his house in a rainbow frill? |
| 12879 | Did the shag bring the storm and the cloud, The wind and the rain and the lightning?" |
| 12879 | Did you hear What happened to Piccola, children dear? |
| 12879 | Do n''t you hear? |
| 12879 | Do n''t you know? |
| 12879 | Do n''t you see? |
| 12879 | Do they think we enjoy for our music Staccatoes of"scat"? |
| 12879 | Do you ne''er think who made them, and who taught The dialect they speak, where melodies Alone are the interpreters of thought? |
| 12879 | Does he who taught in parables speak in parables still? |
| 12879 | Dost remember their howlings? |
| 12879 | Dost thou despise the earth where cares abound? |
| 12879 | Dost thou know who made thee? |
| 12879 | Dost thou know who made thee? |
| 12879 | Dost thou the monarch eagle seek? |
| 12879 | Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south? |
| 12879 | Far on the billowy ocean A thousand leagues are we, Yet here, sad hovering o''er our bark, What is it that we see? |
| 12879 | Fled is that music:--do I wake or sleep? |
| 12879 | For us they toil, for us they die, These humble creatures Thou hast made; How shall we dare their rights deny, On whom thy seal of love is laid? |
| 12879 | For what reason, then, art thou come among us?" |
| 12879 | Four years!--and didst thou stay above The ground, which hides thee now, but four? |
| 12879 | Gave thee life and made thee feed By the stream and o''er the mead; Gave thee clothing of delight,-- Softest clothing, woolly, bright? |
| 12879 | Gave thee such a tender voice, Making all the vales rejoice; Little lamb, who made thee? |
| 12879 | Glad to see you, little bird;''Twas your little chirp I heard: What did you intend to say? |
| 12879 | Granted that any practice causes more pain to animals than it gives pleasure to man; is that practice moral or immoral? |
| 12879 | Has all perished? |
| 12879 | Has it not A claim for some remembrance in the book, That fills its pages with the idle words Spoken of man? |
| 12879 | Hast thou clothed his neck with his trembling mane? |
| 12879 | Hast thou given the horse strength? |
| 12879 | Hast thou taught him to bound like the locust? |
| 12879 | Hath hope been smitten in its early dawn? |
| 12879 | Have clouds o''ercast thy purpose, truth, or plan? |
| 12879 | Have you a warm shelter at night for your bed, Where under your wing you can tuck your brown head? |
| 12879 | He shook his wings and crimson tail, And set his head aslant, And, in his sharp, impatient way, Asked,"What does Charlie want?" |
| 12879 | His bulk and beauty speak no vulgar praise: If, as he seems, he was in better days, Some care his age deserves; or was he prized For worthless beauty? |
| 12879 | How long didst thou think that his silence was slumber? |
| 12879 | How many long days and long weeks didst thou number, Ere he faded before thee, the friend of thy heart? |
| 12879 | How would you be If He which is the top of Judgment should But judge you as you are? |
| 12879 | I do not fear for thee, though wroth The tempest rushes through the sky: For are we not God''s children both, Thou, little sandpiper, and I? |
| 12879 | In holy books we read how God hath spoken To holy men in many different ways; But hath the present worked no sign nor token? |
| 12879 | In what distant deeps or skies Burnt the fire of thine eyes? |
| 12879 | In what furnace was thy brain? |
| 12879 | Is God quite silent in these latter days? |
| 12879 | Is it in type, since Nature''s lyre Vibrates to every note in man, Of that insatiable desire Meant to be so, since life began? |
| 12879 | Is it the faculty of reason, or perhaps the faculty of discourse? |
| 12879 | Is mother earth With various living creatures, and the air Replenished, and all these at thy command To come and play before thee? |
| 12879 | Is not heaven_ within_, when you carol so? |
| 12879 | Is there aught of harm believing That, some newer form receiving, They may find a wider sphere, Live a larger life than here? |
| 12879 | Is there not something in the pleading eye Of the poor brute that suffers, which arraigns The law that bids it suffer? |
| 12879 | Know''st thou not Their language and their ways? |
| 12879 | Life is lovely and sweet; But what would it be if we''d nothing to eat?" |
| 12879 | Little lamb, who made thee? |
| 12879 | Never a bird its glad way safely winging Through those blest skies? |
| 12879 | Never, through pauses in the joyful singing, Its notes to rise? |
| 12879 | No new state I''ll covet; For how long should I love it? |
| 12879 | Not one of those who toil''s severest burdens So meekly bear, To find at last of faithful labor''s guerdons An humble share? |
| 12879 | Now such a story who ever heard? |
| 12879 | Now, is n''t it true Tom''s the best fellow that ever you knew? |
| 12879 | O Indra, and what of this dog? |
| 12879 | O Thou who carest for the falling sparrow, Canst Thou the sinless sufferer''s pang forget? |
| 12879 | Oh, how can I sing, Unless he will bring My three robins back, to sleep under my wing? |
| 12879 | Oh, where is the boy, dressed in jacket of gray, Who climbed up a tree in the orchard to- day, And carried my three little birdies away? |
| 12879 | On what wings dare he aspire? |
| 12879 | Or is thy dread account- book''s page so narrow Its one long column scores thy creature''s debt? |
| 12879 | Or off some tree in forests free That fringe the western main?" |
| 12879 | Or, while the wings aspire, are heart and eye Both with thy nest upon the dewy ground? |
| 12879 | Passers, crowding the pathway, staying your steps awhile, What is the symbol? |
| 12879 | Prescient, the tides or tempests to withstand, Build on the wave, or arch beneath the sand? |
| 12879 | Robbing all the summer long; Do n''t you think it very wrong? |
| 12879 | Seek''st thou the plashy brink Of weedy lake, or marge of river wide, Or where the rocking billows rise and sink On the chafed ocean side? |
| 12879 | Shocking tales I hear of you; Chirp, and tell me, are they true? |
| 12879 | That loving heart, that patient soul, Had they indeed no longer span, To run their course, and reach their goal, And read their homily to man? |
| 12879 | The first that the general saw were the groups Of stragglers, and then the retreating troops, What was done? |
| 12879 | The little bird opened his black bright eyes, And looked at me with great surprise; Then his joyous song broke forth, to say,"Weary of what? |
| 12879 | The question is not"Can they reason?" |
| 12879 | The spider and the dove,--what thing is weak If Allah makes it strong? |
| 12879 | The thunder? |
| 12879 | Then why, dear bird, must you soar so high? |
| 12879 | Then, after some reflection, he said,"Thou hast a son, friend, I believe?" |
| 12879 | There''s Tom, an''Tibby, An''Dad, an''Mam, an Mam''s cat, None on''em earning money-- What do you think of that? |
| 12879 | Think you I''d negotiate For my_ wife_, at any rate? |
| 12879 | Think''st thou perchance that they remain unknown Whom thou know''st not? |
| 12879 | Thinkest thou Such fire divine was kindled to be quenched? |
| 12879 | This presaging stir and humming, Thrill and call? |
| 12879 | Thomas says you steal his wheat; John complains his plums you eat, Choose the ripest for your share, Never asking whose they are? |
| 12879 | Thus far a gentleman addressed a bird; Then to his friend:"An old procrastinator, Sir, I am: do you wonder that I hate her? |
| 12879 | Tiger, tiger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? |
| 12879 | Tiger, tiger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Dare frame thy fearful symmetry? |
| 12879 | Till at length the portly abbot Murmured,"Why this waste of food? |
| 12879 | To be treated, now, just as you treat us,-- The question is pat,-- To take just our chances in living, Would_ you_ be a cat? |
| 12879 | To this the bird seven words did say:"Why not do it, sir, to- day?" |
| 12879 | To what warm shelter canst thou fly? |
| 12879 | Until I was robbed of my young, as you see? |
| 12879 | WHO CALLS THE COUNCIL, STATES THE CERTAIN DAY, WHO FORMS THE PHALANX, AND WHO POINTS THE WAY? |
| 12879 | Want any papers, Mister? |
| 12879 | Was no mind In that graceful form enshrined? |
| 12879 | Well, how did it end? |
| 12879 | What call''st thou solitude? |
| 12879 | What does all this haste and hurry Mean, I pray-- All this out- door flush and flurry Seen to- day? |
| 12879 | What does he care for the April rain? |
| 12879 | What dread grasp Dare its deadly terrors clasp? |
| 12879 | What else could reveal to the petrel the coming storm? |
| 12879 | What else is it that should trace the insuperable line? |
| 12879 | What fair renown, what honor, what repute Can come to you from starving this poor brute? |
| 12879 | What fields, or waves, or mountains? |
| 12879 | What is it? |
| 12879 | What is the happiest morning song? |
| 12879 | What love of thine own kind? |
| 12879 | What matter the region,--what matter the weather, So you and I travel, till death, together? |
| 12879 | What mean the Messieurs of police? |
| 12879 | What objects are the fountains Of thy happy strain? |
| 12879 | What shapes of sky or plain? |
| 12879 | What the anvil? |
| 12879 | What the hammer? |
| 12879 | What the hand dare seize the fire? |
| 12879 | What was it, that passed like an ominous breath-- Like a shiver of fear, or a touch of death? |
| 12879 | What was it, then? |
| 12879 | What was the sign? |
| 12879 | When downward they galloped to where we stood, Whilst I staggered with fear in the dark pine wood? |
| 12879 | When he heard the owls at midnight, Hooting, laughing in the forest,"What is that?" |
| 12879 | When our Judge shall reappear, Thinkest thou this man will hear, Wherefore didst thou interfere With what concerned not thee? |
| 12879 | When the stars threw down their spears, And watered heaven with their tears, Did He smile his work to see? |
| 12879 | When the wind waved his garment, how oft didst thou start? |
| 12879 | When they chatter together,--the robins and sparrows, Bluebirds and bobolinks,--all the day long; What do they talk of? |
| 12879 | Whence come they? |
| 12879 | Where now shall I go, poor, forsaken, and blind? |
| 12879 | Where, on thy dewy wing, Where art thou journeying? |
| 12879 | Wherefore builds he not again Where the wild thorn flowers? |
| 12879 | Wherefore now fails thy heart? |
| 12879 | Whistles the quail from the covert, Whistles with all his might, High and shrill, day after day,"Children, tell me, what does he say?" |
| 12879 | Whither hath the wood thrush flown From our greenwood bowers? |
| 12879 | Whither or whence, With thy fluttering golden band?" |
| 12879 | Whither,''midst falling dew, While glow the heavens with the last steps of day Far through their rosy depths, dost thou pursue Thy solitary way? |
| 12879 | Who Stole the Bird''s Nest? |
| 12879 | Who Taught? |
| 12879 | Who bid the stork Columbus- like explore Heavens not his own, and worlds unknown before? |
| 12879 | Who made the spider parallels design Sure as De Moivre, without rule or line? |
| 12879 | Who stole four eggs I laid, And the nice nest I made? |
| 12879 | Who taught the natives of the field and flood To shun their poison and to choose their food? |
| 12879 | Why does the course Of the mill- stream widen? |
| 12879 | Why not? |
| 12879 | Why start the listeners? |
| 12879 | Why, Mister, What''s a feller to do? |
| 12879 | Will nobody answer those women who cry As the awful warnings thunder by? |
| 12879 | Will nobody speak? |
| 12879 | Will you listen to me? |
| 12879 | Will you send?" |
| 12879 | Wilt thou have any other Lord than Allah, Who is not fed, but feedeth all flesh? |
| 12879 | Would I sell our little Ally, Barter Tom, dispose of Sally? |
| 12879 | Would you sell your brother? |
| 12879 | Your little pink feet-- do they never feel cold? |

| 12879 | dost remember the day When I fronted the wolves like a stag at bay? |
| 12879 | have you seen, in your travels to- day, A very small boy, dressed in jacket of gray, Who carried my three little robins away? |

| 12879 | into no more? |
| 12879 | nor"Can they speak?" |
| 12879 | stop just one moment, I pray: Have you seen a boy dressed in jacket of gray, Who carried my three little birdies away? |
| 12879 | their horrible speed? |
| 12879 | was thy little purse Perchance run low, and thou, afraid of worse, Felt here secure? |
| 12879 | what ignorance of pain? |
| 12879 | what little boy was so wicked?" |
| 12879 | what the chain? |
| 12879 | what to do? |
| 12879 | what was that, like a human shriek From the winding valley? |
| 12879 | what would be May Without your glad presence,--the songs that you sing us, And all the sweet nothings we fancy you say? |
| 12879 | why art thou the last, Llewellyn''s horn to hear? |
| 12879 | why should you cease to smile At death for a beast of burden?" |

| 43144 | Will you tell us precisely what your purse contained, and describe its appearance? |
| 43144 | Wot ails the young''un? |
| 43144 | Wot is it, Jenks? 43144 Wot''s glory?" |
| 43144 | Wot''s the message, mum? |
| 43144 | Wot''s''is name, ma''am? |
| 43144 | Wot''s` Read and Pray,''Janey? |
| 43144 | Wot''s` read and pray''? |
| 43144 | Wot? |
| 43144 | Would you let in your own lad? |
| 43144 | You are going to Wandsworth in the morning-- may I come with you? |
| 43144 | You was fond of poor Jenks? |
| 43144 | You wo n''t never do it again? |
| 43144 | You''ll translate the old boots and shoes wid me fur the next week? |
| 43144 | ''Ow was a_ man_ in yer locked hup cellar? |
| 43144 | A bone? |
| 43144 | A masterpiece of art it was-- of art, I say? |
| 43144 | And if only by stealing they could taste roast goose, was it very wrong, was it wrong at all to steal? |
| 43144 | And what''s the name of the big fellow? |
| 43144 | Are you willing when the time comes to try to be a faithful little servant to any master or mistress you may be with?" |
| 43144 | Besides, even if she could write, would she? |
| 43144 | Better''n wittles, eh?" |
| 43144 | But must they both go out into the world again? |
| 43144 | But the question was not, would he go, but should she take him? |
| 43144 | But you''re better, ai n''t you, dearie?" |
| 43144 | Come, that''s lettin yer off cheap, ai n''t it?" |
| 43144 | Could it be from Dick? |
| 43144 | Dick, who was also in prison, able to write to another boy? |
| 43144 | Did he lose it? |
| 43144 | Did they know that? |
| 43144 | Did yer foller''i m, Janey?" |
| 43144 | Do n''t his heavenly Father and his blessed Saviour care more fur the lad than I do? |
| 43144 | Do we blame them for their social standing? |
| 43144 | Do you know them?" |
| 43144 | Do you know what that means, my child?" |
| 43144 | Does n''t you know as dog- fight''s''gainst the law of the land? |
| 43144 | Does your brother translate also, Darrell?" |
| 43144 | Had any nourishment been ever poured down that baby''s throat? |
| 43144 | Had she ever seen the Queen? |
| 43144 | Had she forgotten Jenks? |
| 43144 | Had she, who could do so little for him, any right to take him? |
| 43144 | How did you spend your time on the Derby Day?" |
| 43144 | How do the characters in this little story fare now? |
| 43144 | How had she got here? |
| 43144 | How was it that in returning from his interview with Maxey his resolutions to do right wavered more and more? |
| 43144 | How was that supper bought? |
| 43144 | I say, worn''t they jist prime?" |
| 43144 | I ses, Flo, would you like to take''i m''ome?" |
| 43144 | If Dick_ could_"prig"something from that rich and greedy world that was letting them both starve, would it be so very wrong? |
| 43144 | If there was a good time coming, was it likely that her mother should have lived and died without ever hearing of it? |
| 43144 | If they could get money for the dog would they not be right to take it? |
| 43144 | Is it not enough?" |
| 43144 | Is you a lookin''hout o''the winder fur''i m any day?" |
| 43144 | Janey,"said Flo, with a great gasp of longing,"_ would n''t_ it be nice to be dead?" |
| 43144 | Just then another hand was laid on her shoulder, and a gentle voice said--"Is anything the matter, little child?" |
| 43144 | May I ask if there is hany particular case as you is wanting to hear?" |
| 43144 | Nevertheless Dick had often passed a day from morning to night without food rather than steal-- why was that? |
| 43144 | Or suppose He did allow her to go through privations? |
| 43144 | Perhaps you saw what he did just now?" |
| 43144 | She had a story-- who has n''t? |
| 43144 | She had met with sorrow-- who has n''t? |
| 43144 | Should he go and satisfy this terrible hunger, and feel comfortable once more? |
| 43144 | Smokin''''ot roast beef and taters, or roast goose full hup to chokin''o''sage and onions? |
| 43144 | Such as they too wicked for Heaven? |
| 43144 | Suppose the lad should refuse to come back?" |
| 43144 | The great, rich people always had the best of everything, why should they not have the best of God''s time too? |
| 43144 | Then hastening to turn the conversation--"Wot was it as you took, Dick?" |
| 43144 | Then she added after a pause,"_ Mother_ knowed me age, and she said ef I lived till this month( ai n''t this month June?) |
| 43144 | They had arranged the whole programme; the carriage was to drive off rapidly-- where? |
| 43144 | They had heard of it of course, as what London child has not? |
| 43144 | This corroboration of her desire startled Janey into quiet, and into a subdued--"_ What_, Flo Darrell?" |
| 43144 | This was the text:"And he said, Who art thou, Lord? |
| 43144 | Was he not a boy? |
| 43144 | Was her foot broken? |
| 43144 | Was it likely, when He was down with her in the dark cellar, that He would allow her to want, or even have things very hard for her? |
| 43144 | Was it possible that Jenks was a bad boy, and that he was teaching Dick to be a bad boy? |
| 43144 | Was it possible that Jenks was not honest, and that the delicious supper they had just eaten was not honestly come by? |
| 43144 | Was she old? |
| 43144 | Was she young? |
| 43144 | Was there ever before in the records of man, a London child so outrageously ignorant as this same little Flo? |
| 43144 | Well, what then? |
| 43144 | Were''s that ere dawg? |
| 43144 | What ailed Flo? |
| 43144 | What could she give Him in return? |
| 43144 | What day was she glad to see? |
| 43144 | What do you take me for? |
| 43144 | What railed Dick? |
| 43144 | What should he bring her? |
| 43144 | What were her feelings to Jenks now, that she should show him so great a kindness? |
| 43144 | What were they saying about the Queen? |
| 43144 | Where had the money come from? |
| 43144 | Where was he? |
| 43144 | Where was she now? |
| 43144 | Which fine lady''ll yer be? |
| 43144 | Who are these boys? |
| 43144 | Who could have written to him? |
| 43144 | Who was the Queen? |
| 43144 | Why did Janey go about singing such songs as nobody could understand? |
| 43144 | Why did he not go? |
| 43144 | Why did you give him so outlandish a name? |
| 43144 | Why was this? |
| 43144 | Why? |
| 43144 | Wot does I know of such? |
| 43144 | Wot does yer say to a ghost story?" |
| 43144 | Wot''ave come o''them, mum, and wot''s to come o''Scamp and me, mum?" |
| 43144 | Wot''s` Our Father,''Janey?" |
| 43144 | Would God allow such love as His Son''s love to be trampled on and used slightingly? |
| 43144 | Would I insult Maxey''s young dawg wid an hout and hout street cur wid no good points? |
| 43144 | Would she do this, and would he go with her? |
| 43144 | Would''ee make a swell o''me, missis?" |
| 43144 | You would n''t like to see the hinside of Newgate fur bringin''this''ere dog to me fur the purpose o''fightin''another dog? |
| 43144 | You''ll never, wot hever''appins, be jail- birds-- promise me that?" |
| 43144 | _ Is_ it, Dick?" |
| 43144 | _ Who_ wrote the letter? |
| 43144 | _ is_ it the shops, and the picters, and the fine ladies? |
| 43144 | and is there lace on''em? |
| 43144 | and is there welwet and silk dresses, Dick?" |
| 43144 | and was it not one of the first laws of nature that all girls should work and all boys should play? |
| 43144 | and which of the two is Dick to begin with?" |
| 43144 | asked Flo, who by this time was very hungry;"ai n''t it nothink but another` s''pose''arter all?" |
| 43144 | bless yer silly young heyes, where''ud be yer supper ef you did? |
| 43144 | but would n''t Dick be hangry?" |
| 43144 | can I abear so big an honour? |
| 43144 | do we blame them for filling their country with vice and crime? |
| 43144 | does n''t you know? |
| 43144 | however had she got here from that cellar where she had lain so ill and unable to move? |
| 43144 | is it time fur me to begin sellin''?" |
| 43144 | is it werry jolly?" |
| 43144 | it worn''t mother come back, wor it?" |
| 43144 | pray to God-- you knows that?" |
| 43144 | said Flo;"but is it as yer do n''t find sellin''make? |
| 43144 | said Jenks eagerly;"you''d like to be bringin''carrots and heggs out o''yer pocket fur supper? |
| 43144 | said the lady more kindly than ever,"that is the important question, what is to become of you and Scamp? |
| 43144 | she said,"ai n''t this a stiflin''''ole? |
| 43144 | were''s that hawful,''owlin''dawg?" |
| 43144 | what did you see them do?" |
| 43144 | where do you live?" |
| 43144 | why did he not at once go? |
| 43144 | why should she care? |
| 43144 | wo n''t it be fun to see the bull- dawg a tearin''of''i m? |
| 43144 | you are his sister too?" |
| 43144 | you knows--`I''m glad-- I hever--''""` Saw the day''?" |
| 37330 | A what? |
| 37330 | And do you enjoy yourself at a show? |
| 37330 | And now, then, what do you think made Jeannie such a bright, loving, and intelligent animal? 37330 And now,"said my wife,"what about the story?" |
| 37330 | And what is a dog- show like? |
| 37330 | And would n''t you like to have a nice long coat like mine? |
| 37330 | And you''re a great beauty, Bit- o''-Fun,I said;"but are n''t your legs rather long for your body?" |
| 37330 | But supposing,I asked,"you took no prize?" |
| 37330 | But supposing? |
| 37330 | But was n''t he a happy dog when he got me up and out again? 37330 But why,"said I,"did n''t you tell him to put his nasty old basket on his back and take it off with him?" |
| 37330 | But wo n''t you be tired, dear? |
| 37330 | But would it be believed that this boy, this London boy, did n''t know where chickens came from? 37330 By the way, did ever you hear of, or read the account of, poor young Gough and his dog? |
| 37330 | Ca n''t you kill it, sir? 37330 Dawson,"I said,"what have you done with her?" |
| 37330 | Did I ever know what it was to be hungry? 37330 Did ever I see such a parcel of numskulls?" |
| 37330 | Did you commence the study of natural history at an early age, Gordon? |
| 37330 | Do I come of a high family, now? |
| 37330 | Do I think that Master Nero knows we are talking about him? 37330 Do n''t you think, dear, that Ida had better go in?" |
| 37330 | Do they give you beef- steak for prizes, then? |
| 37330 | Do you know,I replied,"that the starling is the best of all talking pets? |
| 37330 | Doctor,he would commence,"_ is_ it, is it a nate Irish pet?" |
| 37330 | Eh? 37330 Eh?" |
| 37330 | Eh? |
| 37330 | Fun and romps did I say, Aileen? 37330 How about the dewy freshness?" |
| 37330 | I have often heard you speak of your dog Tyro, Gordon,said Frank;"ca n''t you tell us his history?" |
| 37330 | I thought you said a while ago I was a high- bred mongrel? |
| 37330 | Is it a thremendeous big brute''av a black dog you''ve come to meet, sorr? |
| 37330 | Is it likely I would be singing so blithely if there were? |
| 37330 | Is that possible? |
| 37330 | Is that something very nice? |
| 37330 | Is that the reason,asked Ida,"why you sometimes say eight o''clock to him when you want him to go and lie down?" |
| 37330 | Is the bird alive then? |
| 37330 | Is the extra glass for yourself or for me? |
| 37330 | Is what, Dick? |
| 37330 | Is,he would repeat--"Is the darling starling a pretty pet?" |
| 37330 | Is? |
| 37330 | Need I tell of the grief of that dog''s master? 37330 Not seeing me make any purchase, Nero had evidently said to himself--`Why, nothing to carry? |
| 37330 | Now tell me this, what do they mean by judging by points? |
| 37330 | Object? |
| 37330 | Old dog, you are dead-- we must all of us die-- You are gone, and gone whither? 37330 Poor master loves me very much, and I love master too; But if anything came over me, whatever_ could_ he do? |
| 37330 | Pray how many prizes have you taken? |
| 37330 | Pretty fellow you are, ai n''t ye? |
| 37330 | Some one, more seriously and thoughtfully:` No; but would n''t you like to be a farmer?'' 37330 Steward,"I cried, as we were just under weigh,"did a boy bring a white pigeon for me?" |
| 37330 | Stuffed, is n''t it? |
| 37330 | Tell you a few? 37330 That is quite a child''s story, is n''t it?" |
| 37330 | There, you know what I mean, do n''t you, when I fondle your ear, and smooth it and spread it over my note- book? 37330 They are difficult to rear, are they not?" |
| 37330 | To be sure, you blockhead,said I;"how can I make feather- flowers from a live pigeon?" |
| 37330 | Used to you? |
| 37330 | Was Eenie pretty, did you ask? 37330 We will,"said Frank;"wo n''t we, Ida?" |
| 37330 | Well, Dickie, what is it now? |
| 37330 | Well, my love? |
| 37330 | Well, puss,says Man,"and what can you To benefit the public do?" |
| 37330 | Were you never afraid of losing poor Nero? |
| 37330 | What breed do you think I am? |
| 37330 | What did you do? |
| 37330 | What do you think they are saying? |
| 37330 | What had it been doing? 37330 What is it now?" |
| 37330 | What is it, then, my dear? |
| 37330 | What is it? 37330 What is it?" |
| 37330 | What is that you are writing? |
| 37330 | What say you, then, to the Highlands? |
| 37330 | What says Tupper about Sandy, birdie? 37330 What was Jeannie like, did you ask? |
| 37330 | What,he wanted to know,"did she mean by going on shore without leave?" |
| 37330 | What? |
| 37330 | What_ are_ you going to do? |
| 37330 | Whatever is it, Tip? |
| 37330 | Who is your fat friend? |
| 37330 | Whom is it from, I wonder, Ida,I said;"so late in the evening, too?" |
| 37330 | Why do I not come and romp and play? 37330 Why is it we all love the robin so? |
| 37330 | Why should that be so, I wonder? |
| 37330 | Why? |
| 37330 | Wo n''t you tell us something,said Ida,"about the blackbird and thrush? |
| 37330 | Wo n''t_ you_ take me out of here? |
| 37330 | Would a human friend have been as careful? 37330 Would you like to try him?" |
| 37330 | Yes,I replied;"but do n''t you like it?" |
| 37330 | You always seem to be well and happy, Nero,I said to him one day;"how do you manage it?" |
| 37330 | You do n''t love that dog, mouse? |
| 37330 | _ Is_,he asked one day,"the darling doctor a rascal?" |
| 37330 | _ What_ is it? 37330 ` Am I?'' |
| 37330 | ` And please, my lord,''continued Peggy,` may-- may--''` Well? |
| 37330 | ` Are n''t we having a splendid time, master?'' 37330 ` But,''you will say,` is"Fredabel"Spanish too, because I never heard of such a name before?'' |
| 37330 | ` Did n''t I take a cup at the Crystal Palace?'' 37330 ` Do you take me for a dog?'' |
| 37330 | ` How ever shall I manage?'' 37330 ` I did n''t stop long,_ did_ I, master?'' |
| 37330 | ` I suppose,''he seemed to say,` you wo n''t object to a little music, will you?'' 37330 ` Intrude? |
| 37330 | ` Objection to your dog on board?'' 37330 ` Please, my lord,''said Peggy, modestly,` may I have a divorce?'' |
| 37330 | ` Send him away?'' 37330 ` That fright your father?'' |
| 37330 | ` They wo n''t bite or anything, will they?'' 37330 ` What shall it be-- Dibdin?'' |
| 37330 | ` What''s the correct way to eat it?'' 37330 ` Where is Potassium Pompey?'' |
| 37330 | ` Where is Potassium Pompey?'' 37330 ` Where is me chee-- ild?'' |
| 37330 | ` Who is afraid?'' 37330 ` Who is there?'' |
| 37330 | ` Will you indeed?'' 37330 ` Will you turn him out and send him away?'' |
| 37330 | ` Wo n''t he be a bit tough?'' 37330 ` You ugly, deformed little thing,''I cried,` what do you want in my lady''s room?'' |
| 37330 | ` You''re after the fruit, are n''t you?'' 37330 A fellow does want to go on the tiles now and then, does n''t he? 37330 A lament for brighter skies born of memories of glad Italy? 37330 Affianced? 37330 Afraid of thieves? 37330 Aileen''s master(_ speaks_):And so you have come and laid yourself down beside me, Aileen, and left your playmates every one? |
| 37330 | Aileen, Nero, Bob, Gipsy, Eily, Broom, Gael, Coronach? |
| 37330 | Am I not perfection itself?'' |
| 37330 | And I do wonder why people do n''t keep them more often than they do?" |
| 37330 | And every day when I went down to see him Annie would innocently ask me--"See any odds on him this morning, doctor?" |
| 37330 | And the question comes to be, what shall I do with the body? |
| 37330 | And were n''t the big lemon- tinted gooseberries bearing the bushes groundwards with the weight of their sweetness, and praying to be pulled? |
| 37330 | And were n''t there trees laden with crimson and yellow raspberries? |
| 37330 | And what do you think my mistress did? |
| 37330 | Answering each other all the livelong night, bursting into song at intervals all the day, when, we wondered, did they sleep? |
| 37330 | But where or whither? |
| 37330 | But whither wilt thou go? |
| 37330 | But wo n''t we have a day of it, just?" |
| 37330 | But, doctor, what''s the good of my objecting? |
| 37330 | Call me Mirram, please, wo n''t you?'' |
| 37330 | Can any one say? |
| 37330 | Can you fight? |
| 37330 | Come on, dogs; where are you all? |
| 37330 | Could any one ever be half so kind or careful of me as she is? |
| 37330 | Could that wild, attenuated image in the mirror be my reflection? |
| 37330 | Dead? |
| 37330 | Derogatory, is it? |
| 37330 | Dickie would say, and continue,"Doctor, will you go a- clinking?" |
| 37330 | Did I actually make use of those words? |
| 37330 | Did ever dogs deserve supper more? |
| 37330 | Did n''t you?" |
| 37330 | Did the reader ever hear of the sailor who tamed a cockroach? |
| 37330 | Did they take it in turns to make night and day melodious, keeping watches like the sailors at sea? |
| 37330 | Do n''t you feel all over joyful? |
| 37330 | Do n''t you think so, birdie?" |
| 37330 | Do parrots know what they say? |
| 37330 | Do you think now, Bit- o''-Fun, I would have any chance?" |
| 37330 | Do you understand?" |
| 37330 | Does she ever forget to give me milk of a morning or to share with me her own dinner and tea? |
| 37330 | Does she not always have my saucer filled with the purest, freshest water? |
| 37330 | Eh?'' |
| 37330 | Eh?'' |
| 37330 | Funny, was n''t it? |
| 37330 | Got on shore, have you? |
| 37330 | Have n''t you taught me to look upon the flowers as living things? |
| 37330 | He looked up anxiously in my face, as much as to say,` Do you think the poor thing can live?'' |
| 37330 | He would trot into a kitchen with a friendly wag or two of his little tail, which said, plainly enough,"Is n''t it wet, though?" |
| 37330 | How beautiful is night?" |
| 37330 | How dared you, when you knew I was coming home to supper, and there was n''t a morsel in the larder?'' |
| 37330 | How ever should I be able to face my mistress again? |
| 37330 | How goes it this morning, master?" |
| 37330 | I cried, getting up to greet him,"what wind blew you all the way here?" |
| 37330 | I daresay you think yourself a pretty fellow now? |
| 37330 | I exclaimed,` what can have sent you out of the house so early? |
| 37330 | I exclaimed;"from that impudent bird? |
| 37330 | I often come to the door of my garden study and say to myself,"Where can the bird be to- night?" |
| 37330 | I would steal myself if I were used like that, would n''t you, madam? |
| 37330 | I''m only two years old and little over, and is n''t a second prize at a Crystal Palace show a great honour for a youngster like myself?'' |
| 37330 | I''m talking Greek again, am I? |
| 37330 | I''ve a very good mind to--""To what, Master Bill?" |
| 37330 | If two people were talking together underneath his cage, he would cock his head, lengthen his neck, and looking down quizzingly, say:"Eh? |
| 37330 | Intellect? |
| 37330 | Is it any wonder, then, that I soon turned as reckless as any of them? |
| 37330 | Is it not cruelty on my part, you may inquire, to counsel the robbery of a rook''s nest? |
| 37330 | Is it of that he is so proud? |
| 37330 | Is that thy lesson in the limes?" |
| 37330 | Is this better? |
| 37330 | It was very amusing to see how Dick jumped, and his look of astonishment as he said:"Eh? |
| 37330 | Joy, did I say? |
| 37330 | Keeping the master company, eh? |
| 37330 | Let me see, what shall I do? |
| 37330 | Might it not have been more merciful to have done so? |
| 37330 | My niece put her soft little hand in mine, as she said--"You have n''t forgotten the manuscript, have you?" |
| 37330 | Need I speak of the sorrow of the villagers? |
| 37330 | Nice evening, is n''t it?" |
| 37330 | No, you would n''t mind the heat; were n''t there strawberries as large as eggs and as cold as ice? |
| 37330 | No? |
| 37330 | Now is n''t Don Pedro a dear, good fellow? |
| 37330 | Now is the time to start up, and batter the bulkheads with your slipper; you are sure of half an hour''s good sport; but what then? |
| 37330 | Now, did you ever see such beautiful eggs?" |
| 37330 | Out for a_ walk_ did I say? |
| 37330 | Poor Grey, did we say? |
| 37330 | Privacy? |
| 37330 | So it was you who loved my silly wife?'' |
| 37330 | So the question came to be asked--"Maggie, dear, what_ shall_ we do with Pepsy?" |
| 37330 | So without looking up I said--"By the way, birdie, did ever I tell you Nero''s story?" |
| 37330 | Steward,"I continued,"your fingers ai n''t itching, are they, to kill that lovely creature?" |
| 37330 | Tell you the story? |
| 37330 | The author:"Yes, puss; did n''t you order me to write you a tale with tiny, tiny, tiny people in it? |
| 37330 | The conversation between them seemed to be something like the following--"_ Nero_:` You''re drowning, are n''t you? |
| 37330 | The lifeboat, sir? |
| 37330 | Then, if I did n''t answer--"_ Is_ it sugar-- snails-- sugar, snails, and brandy?" |
| 37330 | This is all Greek to you, is it? |
| 37330 | Try to bite, would you? |
| 37330 | Vixen, did I say? |
| 37330 | Was he an artist? |
| 37330 | Welcome? |
| 37330 | Were they not pets of your boyhood?" |
| 37330 | Wha''ll gie an auld sang for him? |
| 37330 | What are those slow and mournful notes ringing out from the grove in the stillness of night? |
| 37330 | What breed is he? |
| 37330 | What can he know?'' |
| 37330 | What can you want with a muffler? |
| 37330 | What do we speak about? |
| 37330 | What do ye come pottering around here at midnight for?" |
| 37330 | What do you think of that for architecture? |
| 37330 | What do you think of yourself, eh? |
| 37330 | What more could I wish?" |
| 37330 | What sweet little voice is that repeating the same soft song over and over again, and dwelling on the last syllable with long- drawn cadence? |
| 37330 | What was up, I wondered? |
| 37330 | What would you think of my honest dog there if he told you the electric telegraph was an impossibility, simply because_ he_ could n''t understand it? |
| 37330 | What_ is_ it, eh?" |
| 37330 | What_ is_ it?" |
| 37330 | Whatever have you been telling that little fool of a Fiddler?" |
| 37330 | Whatever is up with you to- day that you are barred and bolted like this? |
| 37330 | Where could he be, what would become of him, my only friend, my gentle, loving, noble dog, the only creature that cared for me? |
| 37330 | Where were we seated? |
| 37330 | Where, they wondered, did he come from? |
| 37330 | Who indeed? |
| 37330 | Who ran through the yard yesterday and scared the senses out of half my harem? |
| 37330 | Who would leave the glorious land?" |
| 37330 | Whoever will sing?'' |
| 37330 | Why did n''t he give his name, and tell his story? |
| 37330 | Why do n''t you speak?" |
| 37330 | Why does the swallow sing in so low a voice? |
| 37330 | Why have you changed your mind?" |
| 37330 | Will that do? |
| 37330 | Would n''t you wag a tail if you had one? |
| 37330 | Would you like to know what her name was? |
| 37330 | Ye''ll no be waur than me?" |
| 37330 | You know those circular sweeping- machines with which they clean the mud off the country roads? |
| 37330 | You''re Nero, are n''t you?'' |
| 37330 | _ Ca n''t_ you leave a poor fellow alone? |
| 37330 | _ What_ d''ye say? |
| 37330 | _ What_ d''ye say?" |
| 37330 | _ What_ do you say?" |
| 37330 | _ What_ is it? |
| 37330 | _ you''re_ there, are you?" |
| 37330 | ` Could n''t you,''the dog would seem to ask--`couldn''t you get on your coat a little-- oh,_ ever_ so little-- faster? |
| 37330 | ` Give me back me chee-- ild?'' |
| 37330 | ` No, dear; you would n''t, would you, if you thought he was weary, hungry, and in sorrow for his lost mistress? |
| 37330 | ` Will you indeed?'' |
| 37330 | and do n''t I feel them to be so when I stoop to kiss the roses? |
| 37330 | and does she forget that I need a comfortable bed at night? |
| 37330 | and repeat the last note once or twice, as much as to say:"What comes after that?" |
| 37330 | but,"I reply,"I feel sure there is, else why are you dressed so gaily? |
| 37330 | cried Mr Polypus, fairly aghast with astonishment;` does-- she-- actually-- dare-- to-- defy me?'' |
| 37330 | cried another; and--"` To be sure, where is Potassium Pompey?'' |
| 37330 | dogs in a garden?'' |
| 37330 | he continued, talking to the little dog himself,"who let you out like that?" |
| 37330 | he said,"what''s that?" |
| 37330 | he seems to say,"nor you, nor you? |
| 37330 | he would cry,` do n''t I look lovely, and do n''t you look dowdy beside_ me_? |
| 37330 | he would say, talking with eyes and tail,"you''re here, are you, old girl? |
| 37330 | is it because of that that there comes ever and anon in his short and simple song a kind of half- hysterical note of joy? |
| 37330 | it''s chained ye are, is it? |
| 37330 | left your playmates roaming about among the trees, while you stay here by me? |
| 37330 | my Peggy, my loved, my lost, my half- digested Peggy, shall we never meet again?'' |
| 37330 | please, Peterie,''said poor little Mrs Polypus, beginning to cry,` I really did n''t mean to; but I was_ so_ hungry, and--''"` Hungry?'' |
| 37330 | roared the husband;` how dared you to be hungry?--how dared you be anything at all, in fact? |
| 37330 | robin would say;"do you know you''re wanted?" |
| 37330 | said Hurricane Robert,` you''ve come to raise the rent, have ye? |
| 37330 | said Jack--"an evil spirit?" |
| 37330 | said Pompey;` and does she agree any better with you now?'' |
| 37330 | she cried;"you''re never out of mischief; did Tip bite you?" |
| 37330 | sighed Peggy, and--"` When shall we we d?'' |
| 37330 | well?'' |
| 37330 | what is that? |
| 37330 | what trickery is this? |
| 37330 | what was I born for? |
| 37330 | whatever shall I do?'' |
| 37330 | where is Potassium Pompey?'' |
| 37330 | why have you cast aside your sombre hues and donned that crimson vest?" |
| 37330 | with strong emphasis on the`_ aik_,''and which in English means,` How dare you stand and stare at_ me_?'' |
| 37330 | wo n''t you be sorry to descend your bean- stalk and re- enter Sheerness once again? |
| 37330 | you''re there, are you?" |
| 10226 | A pretty fine- looking lot of horses, are n''t they? 10226 And auntie?" |
| 10226 | And ca n''t it be cured? |
| 10226 | And he is a new one, is n''t he? |
| 10226 | And how do they act? |
| 10226 | And how would he go? |
| 10226 | And what is it, what is it, madame, in your opinion? |
| 10226 | Are there none of the men about? |
| 10226 | Are we worse than other towns? |
| 10226 | Are you running away with the farm? |
| 10226 | Are you very miserable, and did you crawl away to die? 10226 Aunt Hattie, why is the farm called Dingley Farm?" |
| 10226 | Auntie,said Miss Laura,"What do those letters mean on that silver pin that you wear with that piece of ribbon?" |
| 10226 | Barron is gone,he said, and crumpling up a piece of paper, he put it in his pocket"What is to be done for these animals? |
| 10226 | Boys,she said,"did you ever see Joe act in that way before?" |
| 10226 | But you expected to sell that one, did n''t you? |
| 10226 | But, uncle,said Miss Laura,"is n''t there such a thing as hydrophobia?" |
| 10226 | Can you not come and spend the night here? |
| 10226 | Can you think of any one else I could visit? |
| 10226 | Dear old dog,she whispered,"You knew the snake was there all the time, did n''t you?" |
| 10226 | Did you let it go, uncle? |
| 10226 | Do n''t you hate to have these creatures killed, that you have raised and tended so carefully? |
| 10226 | Do n''t you keep your hens all together? |
| 10226 | Do n''t you mean Scamp? 10226 Do sheep have many diseases?" |
| 10226 | Do they always know their own mothers? |
| 10226 | Do they know this for certain, Jack? |
| 10226 | Do you ever call the parrot by her whole name? |
| 10226 | Do you suppose that it will always be summer there? |
| 10226 | Do your cattle stand in these stalls all winter? |
| 10226 | Does n''t this flock want to mix up with the other? |
| 10226 | Fleetfoot has had a happy life, has n''t he? |
| 10226 | For the land sakes, Miss Laura,said a woman who was bending over a stove,"what have you got there?" |
| 10226 | Had n''t we better go to bed? |
| 10226 | Harry,exclaimed Miss Laura,"ca n''t you take me to see them?" |
| 10226 | Harry,she said,"do you think that dumb animals will go to heaven?" |
| 10226 | Has any boy done anything about blinders and check- reins? |
| 10226 | Has any one seen the Montagues? |
| 10226 | Have you noticed that? 10226 He''s lost his bark, has n''t he?" |
| 10226 | He''s not much of a beauty, is he? |
| 10226 | How can you tell him from the others, uncle? |
| 10226 | How did he get to like you so much, Harry? |
| 10226 | How did you get him to consent to that? |
| 10226 | How many sheep have you, uncle? |
| 10226 | How much were you going to ask for him? |
| 10226 | I guess so,said the woman;"but he''s awful dirty; you''re not going to let him sleep in the house, are you?" |
| 10226 | I say, Missis, what did you do? 10226 I suppose farmers are like other people, and are always finding out better ways of doing their work, are n''t they, uncle?" |
| 10226 | I suppose we ought to do it,said Miss Laura, at last;"but how can we give him up?" |
| 10226 | I think I''d like sheep- raising,said Miss Laura;"wo n''t you have me for your flock mistress, uncle?" |
| 10226 | I think I''ve heard of him,said Miss Laura"Is n''t he the man whom the boys call Lord Chesterfield?" |
| 10226 | I wonder whether it''s Duke? |
| 10226 | I''ve wanted it for a long time;--it is n''t good to keep them in globes; but how in the world did she find out? 10226 Is any one here?" |
| 10226 | Is it like that now? |
| 10226 | Is it possible,he said,"that this well- conditioned creature is the bundle of dirty skin and bones that we nursed in Fairport? |
| 10226 | Is n''t that like a woman? |
| 10226 | Is the dog dead? |
| 10226 | Is there no mistake? 10226 Is this a place of punishment?" |
| 10226 | Joe, Joe, Beautiful Joe, where are you? 10226 Joe,"said Miss Laura,"what is the matter with you and Fleetfoot? |
| 10226 | May Joe go? |
| 10226 | No-- what? |
| 10226 | Now, what can we do for this Italian? |
| 10226 | Oh, Mrs. Morris,she said,"will you let Laura come over and stay with me to- night? |
| 10226 | Oh, boys,she said,"why did you make those dogs fight? |
| 10226 | Oh, uncle, what do you mean? |
| 10226 | Oh, yes; ma''am,said the younger one"I''ve got a recitation, do n''t you remember?" |
| 10226 | Oho,he said,"so you are going to be a fighter, are you? |
| 10226 | Poor Derry, did I hurt you? |
| 10226 | Poor doggie, have I hurt your feelings? |
| 10226 | Shall I help you, my dear? |
| 10226 | Suppose Susan makes him a nice bed by the kitchen stove? |
| 10226 | Sure? |
| 10226 | Susan, will you bring some supper to the dining- room, for Miss Morris and me? 10226 That''s a fine sheep, is n''t it?" |
| 10226 | There is no law to prevent that, is there? |
| 10226 | There will be some one in the house besides those two girls? |
| 10226 | These sheep are a long way from the house,said Miss Laura;"do n''t the dogs that you were telling me about attack them?" |
| 10226 | These sheep are larger than those in the orchard, are n''t they? |
| 10226 | Uncle, did he leave those animals to starve? |
| 10226 | Uncle,said Miss Laura,"people do n''t always die when they are bitten by dogs, do they?" |
| 10226 | Was there no more merciful way of catching them than by this trap? |
| 10226 | We''ve been comrades, have n''t we, Fleetfoot? 10226 What are you going to do now?" |
| 10226 | What are you going to do with yourself, Gray, when your college course is ended? |
| 10226 | What are you going to do, uncle? |
| 10226 | What are you going to have? |
| 10226 | What became of him? |
| 10226 | What difference does that make to me? |
| 10226 | What do you do if they get foot- rot? |
| 10226 | What do you mean? 10226 What do you think of them all?" |
| 10226 | What do you want me to do? |
| 10226 | What dog is that? |
| 10226 | What is it like? |
| 10226 | What is it, dear old fellow? |
| 10226 | What is that? |
| 10226 | What is that? |
| 10226 | What is the matter with your head, good dog? |
| 10226 | What is the use? 10226 What kind of traps were they, father?" |
| 10226 | What other animals did you catch when you were a boy? |
| 10226 | What shall I do? |
| 10226 | What shall I tell you? |
| 10226 | What would be your plan for checking it? |
| 10226 | What''s a vet.? |
| 10226 | What''s all this about? |
| 10226 | What''s the matter with him? |
| 10226 | What''s the matter with your feathered charges, Tommy, my lad? |
| 10226 | What''s the matter, Joe? |
| 10226 | What, be a farmer? |
| 10226 | When can you give me these addresses? |
| 10226 | Where are the Montagues? |
| 10226 | Where are you going? |
| 10226 | Where did you read it? |
| 10226 | Where did you say we were going? |
| 10226 | Where is he now, Cousin Harry? |
| 10226 | Where is this animal to sleep? |
| 10226 | Where is uncle this afternoon? |
| 10226 | Where was she? 10226 Where was she?" |
| 10226 | Where''s papa? |
| 10226 | Where''s the fire? |
| 10226 | Where''s uncle? |
| 10226 | Who has been doing it? |
| 10226 | Who has been doing it? |
| 10226 | Who hurt him? |
| 10226 | Who is it? |
| 10226 | Why did n''t they cut your tail, too? |
| 10226 | Why did n''t you have a deadfall for the foxes as you had for the bears? |
| 10226 | Why do you hate them? |
| 10226 | Why do you lay such stress on their walking fast? |
| 10226 | Why does he say that? |
| 10226 | Why does the Englishman live in this out- of- the- way place, if he is so fond of city life? |
| 10226 | Why is that? |
| 10226 | Why, Harry,exclaimed Miss Laura,"do n''t you know Beautiful Joe, that you rescued from that wretched milkman?" |
| 10226 | Why, what do you mean? |
| 10226 | Will you please warm a little milk for him? 10226 Yes, they did-- I am sure this is the car,"I heard in the voice I knew so well;"and wo n''t you get him out, please? |
| 10226 | Yes, were n''t we brutes? |
| 10226 | Yes, yes,she returned;"what shall I get?" |
| 10226 | Yes; is there any reason for it? |
| 10226 | Yes; that you are a temperance woman, does n''t it? |
| 10226 | Yes; why not? |
| 10226 | You are not hurt, are you? |
| 10226 | You do n''t like him to go too fast, do you? |
| 10226 | You have forgotten your whip, have n''t you Harry? |
| 10226 | You know what the white ribbon means, do n''t you? |
| 10226 | You like horses better than any other animals, do n''t you, Harry? |
| 10226 | You never put yourself out for any one, I notice; but, speaking of cropping ears, what do you think of it? |
| 10226 | You take a great interest in your poultry, do n''t you auntie? |
| 10226 | You will help me to care for them, will you? |
| 10226 | You''re going to stay all night with us, are n''t you? |
| 10226 | You''ve minded me from that day, have n''t you? 10226 ***** CHAPTER XIV HOW WE CAUGHT THE BURGLAR What was the wretch doing in the house with my dear Miss Laura? 10226 ***** CHAPTER XXIV THE RABBIT AND THE HENYou had foxes up in Maine, I suppose, Mr. Wood, had n''t you?" |
| 10226 | A good idea, is n''t it? |
| 10226 | After a while, she crept up to the dead dog, pawed him a little, and did n''t he jump up as much alive as any of them? |
| 10226 | And have you a box or a basket down here that he can lie in?" |
| 10226 | And how did I cure you, my beauty? |
| 10226 | Are you going to sleep in the kennel with me, or in the stable?" |
| 10226 | As yet we had seen no hens, except a few on the nests, and Miss Laura said,"Where are they? |
| 10226 | Beat you and make you stubborn? |
| 10226 | But it''s a few minutes after four-- how many?'' |
| 10226 | But what am I saying? |
| 10226 | But you have to use a whip for some horses, do n''t you, Cousin Harry?" |
| 10226 | By- and- by, I heard Miss Laura say:"Uncle John, have you a dog?" |
| 10226 | Can I do nothing?" |
| 10226 | Can it be so?" |
| 10226 | Can you imagine,"she went on, indignantly,"that any one could be cruel enough to torture such a harmless creature as a calf?" |
| 10226 | Carl, will you sell me one?" |
| 10226 | Could Mr. Wood tell them anything about him? |
| 10226 | Could you not coax him up?" |
| 10226 | Could you throw us down a bit of rope? |
| 10226 | Did Harry show you his note?" |
| 10226 | Did you ever hear that cows will give less milk on a dark day than on a bright one?" |
| 10226 | Did you ever see one, Laura?" |
| 10226 | Do you know how father and I settle it?" |
| 10226 | Do you know how to tell a sheep''s age?" |
| 10226 | Do you know what a Band of Mercy is?" |
| 10226 | Do you know what makes the nice, white veal one gets in big cities? |
| 10226 | Do you not remember better than anything else, standing at your mother''s knee-- the pressure of her hand, her kiss on your forehead?" |
| 10226 | Do you notice how she''s holding her head close to the ground?" |
| 10226 | Do you remember how I protested against the building of that deathtrap? |
| 10226 | Do you remember me?" |
| 10226 | Do you see that sheep over there by the blueberry bushes-- the one with the very pointed ears?" |
| 10226 | Do you see those bits of rock salt in each stall? |
| 10226 | Does n''t heat sometimes draw up and preserve things?" |
| 10226 | Does uncle approve of it?" |
| 10226 | Goodness, what appetites those walks gave us, and did n''t we make the dog biscuits disappear? |
| 10226 | Had a good time? |
| 10226 | Has any one else one?" |
| 10226 | Have you ever had a good run in the woods, Joe?" |
| 10226 | Have you ever heard anything about dehorning, Laura?" |
| 10226 | Have you ever heard it?" |
| 10226 | Have you ever heard the legend about him and Adam?" |
| 10226 | Have you ever seen sheep pass through a gate or door?" |
| 10226 | Have you heard of my latest escapade?" |
| 10226 | Have you noticed Scamp very much?" |
| 10226 | He looked at us with his large, intelligent eyes, and wagged his tail slowly, as if to say,"Well, what do you want of me?" |
| 10226 | He stepped to the door of the log hut, glanced in, and said, quickly:"Do you feel able to drive home?" |
| 10226 | How are we going to manage it?'' |
| 10226 | How can all this misery touch you? |
| 10226 | How could I enjoy myself with a dumb creature writhing in pain before me? |
| 10226 | How did it happen? |
| 10226 | How do you do, Carl? |
| 10226 | How''s the water supply now? |
| 10226 | How''s your health?" |
| 10226 | I did not want Miss Laura to come down, but how was I to make her understand? |
| 10226 | I do n''t see how you would get on without Joe, Miss Morris, and I want my birds, and my snake, and my horse-- how can I live without them? |
| 10226 | I have just been reading about some sewer rats, Louise Michel''s rats----""Who is she?" |
| 10226 | I said to him,"Jim, how is it that you never go out shooting? |
| 10226 | I think he was a little sorry, for he turned scornfully toward me and said,"She was worth two of you; why did n''t you go instead?" |
| 10226 | I wonder where Jim is? |
| 10226 | I wonder whether it''s true?" |
| 10226 | In the midst of my pain, I heard him in say fiercely"What have you been doing to that dog?" |
| 10226 | Is n''t he a great, fat, self- satisfied creature, and does n''t he look as if he thought the world owed him a living, and he ought to get it?'' |
| 10226 | Is n''t he pegging away at his studies with my hearty approval? |
| 10226 | Is there any stranger about?" |
| 10226 | It has been a terrible fire, has n''t it? |
| 10226 | It seemed to me a very strange thing for these creatures to be out this time of night, and why were they coming to Dingley Farm? |
| 10226 | Jack one day looked at me, and exclaimed:"Why does that dog stalk about, first after one and then after another, looking at us with such solemn eyes?" |
| 10226 | Just sketch an outline of that, will you, Gray?" |
| 10226 | Just think of it, girls, Is n''t it dreadful? |
| 10226 | Maxwell?" |
| 10226 | Miss Laura stroked and patted him, then she called to her cousin,"Harry, will you look at this?" |
| 10226 | Mr. Harry smiled, and getting up, said,"Wo n''t you have my chair, sir?" |
| 10226 | Mr. Harry was waiting at the gate for us, and when he saw Miss Laura, he said,"Why did you come jack again? |
| 10226 | Mr. Morris sprang up when he saw him, and said,"Where is your wife?" |
| 10226 | Mr. Wood looked very thoughtful when he got this letter, then he said,"Harry, how long is it since Barron ran away?" |
| 10226 | Mrs. Morris was very much alarmed, and cried out,"My dear William, what is the matter?" |
| 10226 | Mrs. Morris, tell me plainly, are there many such unhappy homes in Fairport?" |
| 10226 | Mrs. Morris, what can I do?" |
| 10226 | One day when he came into the kitchen inquiring for salt, Miss Laura said:"Is it for the sheep?" |
| 10226 | One of them, a little boy with eyes like Miss Laura''s, said,"What did Cousin Harry say the dog''s name was?" |
| 10226 | Plague on it, how was I going to know he''d kill the old cat? |
| 10226 | Presently Mr. Morris raised his voice above the uproar, and called,"Is every one out of the hotel?" |
| 10226 | Pretty fair, is n''t it?" |
| 10226 | Shall I tell you some of the sport we had when I was a youngster?" |
| 10226 | She drew my head up to her lap, and put her face down to me:"You like to be with us, do n''t you, Joe? |
| 10226 | She says,''What makes you so silly, Laura?''" |
| 10226 | Some boys were playing about the stable, and I heard them say, in horrified tones,"Oh, Cousin Harry, what is the matter with that dog?" |
| 10226 | Suppose a girl saw a mouse with her eyes half covered, would n''t she run?" |
| 10226 | The Italian pulled his watch out of his pocket and showed it to the first pony, whose name was Diamond, and said,''What time is it?'' |
| 10226 | The cabin boy looked at him shyly, and Jack, who was a very sharp boy, said quickly,"Is not that what you call her, Henry?" |
| 10226 | The sheep in the orchard are safe enough, for they''re near the house, and if a strange dog came around, Joe would settle him, would n''t you, Joe?" |
| 10226 | The wild- cat we ran down like the''loup cervier''--""What kind of an animal is that?" |
| 10226 | Their ill humor had gone, and when she turned to leave them, and said, coaxingly,"You wo n''t make those dogs fight any more, will you?" |
| 10226 | Then he looked at her anxiously, and said,"Show off now, ca n''t ye?" |
| 10226 | Then he said,"What do you think of that, Joe? |
| 10226 | Then the parrot began calling for Jim:"Where''s Jim, where''s good old Jim? |
| 10226 | There is a cow, is n''t there?" |
| 10226 | There was a house in the garden, and just at this minute some one opened a window and called out:"Hallo, there, what are you doing?" |
| 10226 | They are doing all this for us, and how are we rewarding them? |
| 10226 | Uncle, what is the most merciful way to kill a dog? |
| 10226 | Was her husband saved, and Charlie?" |
| 10226 | Was it the hotel?" |
| 10226 | We''re going out in the buggy this afternoon, will you come?" |
| 10226 | Well, Fleetfoot, do you want another spin? |
| 10226 | Well, Jack, what is the latest?" |
| 10226 | Well, Joe, how d''ye do, old boy? |
| 10226 | Well, Scamp, my beauty, how are you, this morning?" |
| 10226 | Well, old fellow, what do you think of my horse stable? |
| 10226 | Well, the old man grumbled and said he did n''t want any thoroughbred airs in his stable, so I bought you, did n''t I, Dutchman?" |
| 10226 | What does the Lord think of them when they say,''Am I my brother''s keeper?'' |
| 10226 | What have you been doing, Harry?" |
| 10226 | What have you got here?" |
| 10226 | What kind of food does their flesh make? |
| 10226 | What shall I do? |
| 10226 | What shall I take them?" |
| 10226 | What shall they be about?" |
| 10226 | What should we do to help these members of our common family, who are not as well off as we are? |
| 10226 | What sort of a garden would there be, and do you think it would be fair to take their playground from them?" |
| 10226 | What will you have, Laura?" |
| 10226 | What''s that stuff? |
| 10226 | When can you have him?" |
| 10226 | When he had finished his account of rescuing me from Jenkins, she said, quietly:"You will have the man punished?" |
| 10226 | Where did he come from? |
| 10226 | Where did you leave him?" |
| 10226 | Where do you suppose he would go from Penhollow?" |
| 10226 | Where is he? |
| 10226 | Where is our health inspector, that he does not exercise a more watchful supervision over establishments of this kind? |
| 10226 | Where is the human being that would put up with the tortures that animals endure and yet come out so patient?" |
| 10226 | Where is the remedy?''" |
| 10226 | Where''s Davy, the rat? |
| 10226 | Where''s pussy? |
| 10226 | Where''s the guinea pig? |
| 10226 | Where''s your tail? |
| 10226 | Who can tell us another story about a horse?" |
| 10226 | Who cut your ears off?" |
| 10226 | Who has hurt this dog?" |
| 10226 | Why did n''t she have some poor children at her table, and in her carriage, and let the dogs run behind?" |
| 10226 | Why do n''t you stand still? |
| 10226 | Why do you say that?" |
| 10226 | Why does n''t he cut these branches that overhang the road?" |
| 10226 | Will oor auld Donald gang? |
| 10226 | Will you hold Fleetfoot, Laura, while I go and see?" |
| 10226 | Wood?" |
| 10226 | Wood?" |
| 10226 | Wood?" |
| 10226 | Wood?" |
| 10226 | Would n''t he have sent me that note, instead of leaving it here on the table, if he''d wanted me to know? |
| 10226 | Would no one help him to get his animals out? |
| 10226 | You know that pretty hollow back of the pasture? |
| 10226 | You remember Jenkins?" |
| 10226 | You want him punished, do n''t you?" |
| 10226 | You want to know why it is so long, do n''t you?" |
| 10226 | Your Bible tells you that, does n''t it? |
| 10226 | and the young girl stood up very straight and tall, her brown eyes flashing, and one hand pointing at me;"will you let that pass? |
| 10226 | do you want more?" |
| 10226 | exclaimed Miss Laura,"his eyes are n''t open; why did you take him from his mother?" |
| 10226 | he exclaimed,"what are you doing?" |
| 10226 | she said;"and what are those funny things in your hands?" |
| 10226 | when will men cease to be fools? |
| 52018 | ''What about the chickings?'' 52018 A lady- board?" |
| 52018 | A lift-- where? |
| 52018 | Ai n''t it a pity? |
| 52018 | Ai n''t she a sight? |
| 52018 | Ai n''t she cute? 52018 Ai n''t there any good practisers in Ciscasset?" |
| 52018 | Ai n''t you goin''to give us any fresh meat, pop? |

| 52018 | And a kind o''sickly green dress? |
| 52018 | And a sort of steely air as if she''d dare the world? |
| 52018 | And can I not go to my friends now-- at once? 52018 And have you taken many jackets?" |
| 52018 | And she''ll be maddest with you? |
| 52018 | And what about your dog? |
| 52018 | And what became of that deer? |
| 52018 | And what do you propose to do? |
| 52018 | And when did he give away that leg? |
| 52018 | And you like that thing? |
| 52018 | And you wish some one to straighten you out? |
| 52018 | And you''ll keep that innocent child here all day, and she too frightened to breathe? |
| 52018 | Any relatives there? |
| 52018 | Are there many men killing deer? |
| 52018 | Are we to start soon? |
| 52018 | Are you an extry good man? |
| 52018 | Be you a creamery shark? |
| 52018 | Better for you-- what you going there for? |
| 52018 | Bill,he said, slowly,"what''s the name o''that man that holds forth in Molunkus Street Church?" |
| 52018 | Brother and sister? |
| 52018 | But can I drop in an''see you by spells? |
| 52018 | Ca n''t you give him some milk? |
| 52018 | Can I ask you a question or so afore you go? |

| 52018 | Did you bring that small dog across the ocean with you? |

| 52018 | Stop till I get some newspapers to put on the bed,said the landlady--"what''s in that package? |

| 52018 | What''s your name, little girl? |
| 52018 | When you hear those robins sing, do n''t it feel as if there was a little string squeakin''inside o''you? |

| 52018 | You the little girl carried beyond your station? |
| 52018 | You want to quit it? |
| 52018 | You would n''t shoot him, would you? |
| 52018 | You''re a mighty fine girl, sissy, how old are you now? |
| 52018 | You''ve visited creameries, sir? |
| 52018 | Your home is n''t quite so near as Ciscasset? |
| 52018 | Your name? |
| 52018 | _ Das Veilchen._"Captain''s name? |
| 52018 | _ Parlez- vous français_? |
| 52018 | _ Sprechen Sie Deutsch?_he asked, agreeably. |
| 52018 | ''Then he looked kind o''solemn, an''said,''Whose crutches was burnt up?'' |
| 52018 | ''Tilda Jane fell into blank astonishment for the space of one minute, then she asked, wistfully,"Do you mean that-- did I truly bring you bad luck?" |
| 52018 | Ai n''t they lovely?" |
| 52018 | Air you sighin''either o''ye to see the inside o''State''s prison? |
| 52018 | Air you, Zebedee?" |
| 52018 | An''you never want to be bad, do you, an''chase back to the woods?" |
| 52018 | And why, when it was so pure and clean without, did she not feel ashamed to keep so dull and untidy a house? |
| 52018 | Any one''ll tell you-- understand?" |
| 52018 | Are you doing right? |
| 52018 | Are you not a naughty little girl?" |
| 52018 | Bolingbroke,"he called, in a loud voice;"any passenger of that name in this car?" |
| 52018 | But was she on foot or driving?" |
| 52018 | But what was all this talk about deer? |
| 52018 | Ca n''t some one get the conductor? |
| 52018 | Ca n''t you come nigher the fire?" |
| 52018 | Can you go down- town with me?" |
| 52018 | Can you supply any information? |
| 52018 | Could she endure the thought of that little feeble frame subjected to torture? |
| 52018 | Did I think the devil had come after me? |
| 52018 | Did she feel this? |
| 52018 | Did you ever try to teeter along on snow- shoes?" |
| 52018 | Dillson''s?" |
| 52018 | Dillson?" |
| 52018 | Do n''t your mother wear aprons like it, or somethin''?" |
| 52018 | Do ye know why I''m givin''that dog to the little gal stid o''you?" |
| 52018 | Do you hear?" |
| 52018 | Do you know how they take in a community, sir?" |
| 52018 | Do you like dogs?" |
| 52018 | Do you think she''d let you stand between her and Mis''Grannis? |
| 52018 | Does bad men kill them?" |
| 52018 | Dog, is it? |
| 52018 | Give this little girl a place to lie down till dinner''s ready, will you? |
| 52018 | Going to visit friends?" |
| 52018 | Going to visit him?" |
| 52018 | Had any one else heard the insult? |
| 52018 | Had he one horse or two?" |
| 52018 | Had she been near the heaven that the matron and the"lady- boards"pictured, or would it have been the other place, on account of her disobedience? |
| 52018 | Had she died and gone to heaven? |
| 52018 | Had she stolen their rig? |
| 52018 | Had she-- a little girl-- any right to give so much trouble to grown people? |
| 52018 | Had some one come up the front walk and drawn the creature away? |
| 52018 | Have you got those diamonds in your pocket?" |
| 52018 | He forgot''Tilda Jane for an instant,"Sons-- ye know yer pop loves ye, do n''t ye?" |
| 52018 | He was not going to withdraw his protection from her, she saw that, but what would he direct her to do next? |
| 52018 | He''ll run behind, wo n''t he?" |
| 52018 | He''s given me pointers many a time-- where you hail from, leetle gal?" |
| 52018 | Hello, wood- lark,"as he observed the little girl peeping at him through the fence,"is there a hawk in your nest?" |
| 52018 | Hobart Dillson''s crutches,''an''he said,''What girl burnt''em?'' |
| 52018 | How can a child look like a monkey?" |
| 52018 | How many years was it since any one had kissed him? |
| 52018 | How much did father lose?" |
| 52018 | How much do you want-- that is, where did you come on?" |
| 52018 | I did n''t snuffle nor nothin'', but I just said,''Are you plannin''to kill that there dog?'' |
| 52018 | I guess I''ll tell you jus''where I come from-- I s''pose you know the Middle Marsden Orphan''Sylum?" |
| 52018 | I guess he is a good man, Lord, but if he kills deer, wilt thou not lay on his heart a coal from thy altar? |
| 52018 | I hope you''ve heard from your son I was comin''?" |
| 52018 | I know they''ll have one, but how can I wait? |
| 52018 | If she could only lie down again-- and what was the matter with her? |
| 52018 | Kin you foot it out on snow- shoes this mornin''to the nearest house, do you s''pose?" |
| 52018 | Know what that is, leetle gal?" |
| 52018 | Ladies, shall we keep this little disturving lellement in our''stution? |
| 52018 | Mr. Hank-- is it truly you I''m pinchin'', or is it a ghost?" |
| 52018 | Now ai n''t that awful? |
| 52018 | Now do you take it in?" |
| 52018 | Now she was comparatively safe, yet which way should she go? |
| 52018 | Now, grampa, wo n''t you let me get some work to do outside to help us?" |
| 52018 | Now-- what was she going to do with those crutches? |
| 52018 | Oh, ai n''t it lovely, ai n''t it lovely?" |
| 52018 | Oh, promise, will you?" |
| 52018 | Oh, sir, are we at Ciscasset yet?" |
| 52018 | Oh, sir, oh, sir, wo n''t you telegraph my mother?" |
| 52018 | Pg 163,''only onct a day?'' |
| 52018 | Say, is it a bargain, ole feller? |
| 52018 | Says she,''Will some lady make a commotion?'' |
| 52018 | See those ripples in his back? |
| 52018 | She could stand punishment herself-- but her dog? |
| 52018 | She paused suddenly, and her companion asked,"What''s up with you?" |
| 52018 | She went on boldly,"Can I lie in my soft, warm bed up- stairs an''you a- sufferin''? |
| 52018 | Should he warn him against the youthful adventuress? |
| 52018 | Some one out there hesitated, halted, and remarked to some other person behind,"Will you come in and have a bite of something to eat?" |
| 52018 | Suppose she should make way with herself? |
| 52018 | Then I said,''All right,''''cause what could I do agin a whole lot o''lady- boards? |
| 52018 | Then he said aloud,"Do n''t you suppose they''ll be worrying about you, sissy?" |
| 52018 | Then she said,"She ai n''t gone away?" |
| 52018 | Then with some curiosity he went on,"What did she do to make you talk like that?" |
| 52018 | Trains were coming and going all the time, and with this constant supervision below, how could she evade detection? |
| 52018 | Was no one perfect? |
| 52018 | Was she going to set the chimney on fire? |
| 52018 | Was you born in the asylum?" |
| 52018 | What conclusion have you reached?" |
| 52018 | What do you say-- is it a bargain?" |
| 52018 | What kind of folks must she have to let such a poor little innocent travel alone? |
| 52018 | What part shall we tackle fust? |
| 52018 | What shall I do? |
| 52018 | What should she do without him? |
| 52018 | What was a breath of smoke compared with her inward discomposure over her pecuniary difficulties? |
| 52018 | What was she doing? |
| 52018 | What was she going to do? |
| 52018 | What was she to do? |
| 52018 | What was that crashing through the alder bushes? |
| 52018 | What was the minister saying to Hank? |
| 52018 | What was you doin''so far from houses last night, leetle gal,''stead o''bein''tucked snug in bed?" |
| 52018 | What would the Lucases say if they knew of his untimely end? |
| 52018 | What would then be his position? |
| 52018 | What''ll we do, Zeb?" |
| 52018 | What''ll you do, pop?" |
| 52018 | What''s that?" |
| 52018 | What''s your name, sir? |
| 52018 | When they had finished, she piped through the screen,"Will you please gimme a lend o''the comb?" |
| 52018 | Where did that noise come from? |
| 52018 | Where had her adventures brought her this time? |
| 52018 | Where''d you get it, pop?" |
| 52018 | Where''s the conductor? |
| 52018 | Why did n''t you freeze on to him?" |
| 52018 | Why did not the woman shut it? |
| 52018 | Why had she waked with that terrible feeling of unhappiness? |
| 52018 | Would Hank talk to him freely? |
| 52018 | Ye jist understan''him without talk-- leetle gal, what''s Poacher sayin''now?" |
| 52018 | You ai n''t got any crackers round, have you?" |
| 52018 | You call up the cold spell we had a week ago?" |
| 52018 | You had a pretty long one, had n''t you?" |
| 52018 | You jus''creep away when you see some one comin''and do n''t say a word, do you? |
| 52018 | You say his health''s better?" |
| 52018 | You wrote me Mrs. Tracy was teaching you some, did n''t you?" |
| 52018 | he exclaimed, turning around,"did you make your sleep out?" |
| 52018 | murmured''Tilda Jane,"where your father used to be?" |
| 52018 | replaced by''only once a day?''. |
| 52018 | said the man, stepping inside the cabin;"what in the name o''creation''s this? |
| 52018 | said the young man, listlessly;"what''s he desponding about?" |
| 52018 | she murmured,"I wonder how long sence those blankets has been washed?" |
| 52018 | she said excitedly;"a poor little girl, very thin and miserable, and with a lame, brown dog limping after her? |
| 52018 | she said, wistfully,"an''have you got more family?" |
| 52018 | she went on, wistfully,"cats, birds, children-- do you like girls, sir, nice little girls with blue eyes an''curly hair?" |
| 52018 | the lady called back; then she added, wonderingly,"but I thought you met her driving with Farmer Dabley?" |
| 52018 | why does God let men be so wicked?" |
| 38029 | ''Spose dey ai n''t got de money fer ter pay right plank down, but kin pay de week atter? 38029 Ain''dat de very las''bit an''grain o''nonsense?" |

| 38029 | And what shall_ I_ be about while you are doing the pulling? 38029 And where are you minded to stroll on this charming afternoon when everybody else is glad to sit in a snug room and take a Saturday rest?" |
| 38029 | And who is Mammy, may I inquire? |
| 38029 | Are n''t we here to be done with after that showing? |
| 38029 | Are n''t you Mrs. Carruth''s little girl? |

| 38029 | But who will_ pay_ for him? 38029 But you surely do n''t want_ all_ that?" |
| 38029 | But you''ll tell me before_ next_ Saturday, wo n''t you? 38029 But, mother, suppose no one will take old Baltie and give him a home?" |
| 38029 | But_ how_ did you get Baltie and, greater marvel,_ how_ did you bring him all this way home? |

| 38029 | Do you object to telling me just what you wish to do and why you need an office? |
| 38029 | Do you think it would hurt her to go, Eleanor? |
| 38029 | Do you want to quite spoil me? |

| 38029 | Is Miss Jinny the older sister who manufactures that delicious candy? |
| 38029 | Is mother willing? 38029 Is n''t he a_ dear_, mother, to take so much trouble for me? |
| 38029 | Is n''t he splendid, mother? |

| 38029 | Not two yards of any one pattern? 38029 Now, Constance, what are you planning? |
| 38029 | Now, young lady, by- the- way, do you mind letting me know your name? 38029 O, but what_ will_ mother say? |
| 38029 | Oh, Baltie, dear, dear Baltie, how did you get out of your stable and come way off here? |
| 38029 | Oh, Mammy, did you_ sell_ some? |

| 38029 | Oh,_ where_ are you going to take him, please? |
| 38029 | Oh,_ why did_ you get up to meet me? 38029 Perhaps we would,"agreed Eleanor,"but where will we go if we give up the home? |
| 38029 | Seriously, Constance, what have you thought of doing, dear? |
| 38029 | Shall I have the men lead him up to your barn? |
| 38029 | Somebody gwine tek away dat old horse dat yo''love, an''breck yo''heart? 38029 Strike her? |

| 38029 | Wal,''spose he does; what then? 38029 Was there ever such a philosopher as Mammy?" |
| 38029 | Well, since it is a space we never thought to rent anyway, and could n''t use for anything else if we wished to, suppose we say five dollars a month? 38029 Well, you let me answer that question day after to- morrow, Mumsey? |
| 38029 | Well_ two_ of us have settled upon our plan of action, now what are_ you_ going to do, Connie? 38029 Wha'', wha'', wha'', yo say, suh?" |

| 38029 | What can I do? 38029 What did she do with her apples? |
| 38029 | What do_ you_ suggest for my boxes, mother? |

| 38029 | What is it, Mammy? 38029 What is it, Mammy?" |
| 38029 | What is it? 38029 What is the use of asking that? |
| 38029 | What''ll I do to him? 38029 What''s de matter, honey? |
| 38029 | What_ is_ the use of being so ridiculously high and mighty? 38029 When are you going to begin this enterprise?" |
| 38029 | Where has he been all these years, mother, that we have never met him in Riveredge? |
| 38029 | Where in this world have_ you_ sprung from? 38029 Where is Mammy? |
| 38029 | Where_ do_ you get hold of those awful expressions, Jean? 38029 Who said I had any notion of leaving school? |
| 38029 | Who sesso? |
| 38029 | Who''n thunder air you? |
| 38029 | Whom? 38029 Why not have an auction then? |
| 38029 | Why not, I''d like to know? |
| 38029 | Why nothing to_ you_? 38029 Why what in this world would you do with it if you_ did_? |
| 38029 | Will you? 38029 Would it not be kinder to end such a hapless existence than to leave it to an uncertain fate, dear?" |
| 38029 | Wul, why do n''t ye go home then? |

| 38029 | _ You_ do n''t know what all the fuss is about, and why Mammy is waiting to give me Hail Columbia? |

| 38029 | And now_ you_ want to quit school and go to work? |
| 38029 | And oh,_ how_ did the auction turn out, mother? |
| 38029 | And what is the matter? |
| 38029 | And you think of opening a_ stand_?" |
| 38029 | Are n''t we_ just right_, Mammy? |
| 38029 | Are you going to sell this set of furniture? |
| 38029 | Are you planning to sell candy? |
| 38029 | Are you the superintendent of the building?" |
| 38029 | Are you thinkin''of taking out a policy?" |
| 38029 | Are you_ all_ safe? |
| 38029 | Are your Pegasus Ponies as profitable?" |
| 38029 | Are your photos ready to paste on''em?" |
| 38029 | As he turned to go back a man who occupied a cigar stand near the door nodded and said with a laugh:"Got a new tenant, Mr. Porter? |
| 38029 | As they drew near the stairway, Miss Willing glanced up, gave an indifferent nod in answer to Constance''s"How do you do, Miss Willing?" |
| 38029 | Baltie?" |
| 38029 | Baltie?'' |
| 38029 | Bernard Carruth''s daughter? |
| 38029 | But I fear I shall intrude upon you?" |

| 38029 | But yo''ai nt gwine stan''behin''de counter is yo''? |
| 38029 | But you have n''t asked me what I''m going to charge you for your booth?" |
| 38029 | By- the- way, apropos of horses, what_ has_ Mammy done to poor old Baltie? |
| 38029 | By- the- way, how did you get on at the school to- day? |

| 38029 | Did you have time to go and see the prospective ones this afternoon? |
| 38029 | Did you make''em? |

| 38029 | Did_ you_ make''em?" |
| 38029 | Do n''t I b''long ter de fambly? |
| 38029 | Do n''t you have to pay board for horses just like people pay their board?" |
| 38029 | Do n''t you think I ought really to pay more? |
| 38029 | Do n''t you think that would be a good plan?" |
| 38029 | Do you always sell it? |

| 38029 | Do you mean to tell me''taint all alike?" |

| 38029 | Fine day, is n''t it?" |
| 38029 | Flingin''my earnin''s''way? |
| 38029 | For a few moments no one had a suggestion to offer, then Constance cried:"Mother could n''t we_ sell_ a good many of the things? |

| 38029 | Have you thought about that?" |
| 38029 | He was at the gate when I drove up, and what do you think he did? |
| 38029 | He_ would''nt_ have had to say''Whom? |
| 38029 | How about_ you_?" |
| 38029 | How am I ever going to pay for it though? |
| 38029 | How are you flourishing, Nornie? |
| 38029 | How came she to do such a thing?" |
| 38029 | How came you there?" |
| 38029 | How could Jabe Raulsbury have been so utterly heartless?" |
| 38029 | How did you happen to hear us?" |
| 38029 | How far have you come? |
| 38029 | How is_ that_ for a frolic? |

| 38029 | How much does Hadyn Stuyvesant ask you for it anyway? |
| 38029 | How much is I gotter pay yo''?" |
| 38029 | How much were the packages of candy? |
| 38029 | How old are you now?" |
| 38029 | How would you like to share your quarters with this enterprising young lady? |
| 38029 | How''s_ that_ for a little thoroughbred?" |

| 38029 | Huccum dat old horse here?" |
| 38029 | I call that pretty good for a ten- year- old business woman, do n''t you, Mumsey, dear?" |
| 38029 | I know my candy is good,''cause if it was n''t Mammy could not sell it so easily, and--""Candy? |
| 38029 | I''m half- starved? |
| 38029 | I''ve been to East Riveredge with the candy--""_ What_ candy, Jean? |
| 38029 | I_ know_ she will,"wailed Constance, as a man ran across the hall calling:"Miss Carruth, Miss Constance, where are you? |
| 38029 | If any one had been found to take him he_ would n''t_ have been there yet, would he? |
| 38029 | If you''re to be a coach- woman you''ve got to have some sort of an equine creature to hustle along, have n''t you? |

| 38029 | Is_ he_ de agen''?" |
| 38029 | Is_ that_ why she struck you?" |
| 38029 | It is a pretty wet, horrid one, and not a very nice one to be out in, is it?" |
| 38029 | It is always easier to talk business when seated, do n''t you think so?" |
| 38029 | It will make you happier to know he will be comfortable for a little while any way, wo n''t it?" |
| 38029 | It''s old Baltie; do n''t you know him? |
| 38029 | It_ does_ seem a shame to sell''em, do n''t it now? |
| 38029 | Jean told it from beginning to end, and ended by demanding:"Do n''t you really, truly, know anything about the candy Constance is making to sell?" |
| 38029 | Jis''tell me dat?" |
| 38029 | Just going? |
| 38029 | Madam Carruth, as she was often called, shook her niece''s hand, looked at her keenly for a moment and then said:"My stars, Jenny, what ails you? |
| 38029 | Mek a Blairsdale''ceited?" |
| 38029 | Miss Nornie would n''t never in de roun''worl''do_ dat_, would she, honey? |
| 38029 | Mr. Porter laughed in spite of himself, then sobering down again asked:"Have you time to come back to my office? |
| 38029 | Mrs. Carruth rested her cheek upon it as she replied:"What should I do without my girls? |
| 38029 | Mrs. Carruth turned toward her and asked with a quizzical smile;"What is spoiling, Mammy?" |
| 38029 | My goodness, is n''t that a lot? |
| 38029 | My niece has always been considered a most amiable woman, has n''t she? |
| 38029 | My, does n''t that sound business- like? |
| 38029 | Nornie, do n''t you wish_ you''d_ taken to a commercial rather than a professional life? |
| 38029 | Not Bernard Carruth''s daughter?" |
| 38029 | Now can I go out?" |
| 38029 | Now comes the fire insurance settlement and the interest on that wo n''t be over seven hundred at the outside, will it?" |
| 38029 | Now do you? |
| 38029 | Now whar in de name o''man_ is_ yo''been ter?" |
| 38029 | Now what am I offered for this roll of fine Japanese matting? |
| 38029 | Now what is the first step?" |
| 38029 | Now, she ca n''t possibly_ feed_, let alone clothe, us for less than twenty dollars a week, can she? |
| 38029 | Now, suh, who is_ yo''_?" |
| 38029 | Now_ what_ did you say Haydn Stuyvesant charged you for this house?" |
| 38029 | O_ where_ is Mammy?" |
| 38029 | Of this he speedily became aware, and looking at her keenly he asked:"Have you ever eaten any of the old Auntie''s candy? |
| 38029 | Oh, how long have you been here? |
| 38029 | Oh, what shall I do for you? |
| 38029 | One dollar for at least fifteen yards of perfectly new Japanese matting? |
| 38029 | Placing her arms upon her hips, and raising her head like a war- horse scenting battle, Mammy stamped her foot and cried:"Step down an''out? |
| 38029 | Porter?" |
| 38029 | Punch his head?" |
| 38029 | Say, Professor, do you really know her folks? |
| 38029 | Say, do n''t you think them Carruths were just a little mite extravagant? |
| 38029 | Say, where did yer git him?" |
| 38029 | See her?" |
| 38029 | She jist a projectin'', ai n''t she?" |
| 38029 | She was about to turn away when Jean made her way through the crowd to her side crying:"Did you really get them, Miss Pike? |
| 38029 | She was very white and asked almost breathlessly,"Girls, girls, is anyone hurt? |
| 38029 | Should it be rebuilt with the money to be paid by the insurance company, or should it be sold? |
| 38029 | Smack her kase she done plague yo'', or praise her kase she doin''her bes''fer ter mek t''ings go a little mite easier fer her ma?" |
| 38029 | So dey ai n''t gwine_ trus''_ you, Baby? |
| 38029 | So yo''want me fer ter state mine an''cl''ar long out, does yo''Mr.''Lijah? |
| 38029 | Sometimes we would rather sacrifice our time than our temper, do n''t you think so?" |
| 38029 | Sort o''fits yo''pine blank, don''it now? |
| 38029 | Stuyvesant?" |
| 38029 | Stuyvesant?" |
| 38029 | Successful business women and a firm of which you are proud to be a member? |
| 38029 | Surely you wo n''t leave Riveredge? |
| 38029 | That is the set mother felt so bad about selling, is n''t it, Connie?" |
| 38029 | That leaves fourteen hundred wherewith to feed and clothe five people, does n''t it? |
| 38029 | That one with the bronze bird on it, see?" |
| 38029 | The former slight might have been disregarded; the latter? |
| 38029 | The lad laughed and raising his hand stroked the warm neck as he said:"Found a friend at last, old boy? |
| 38029 | The superintendent noticing her hesitancy said kindly:"Wo n''t you be seated? |
| 38029 | Then she asked:"Am I to refrain from making inquiries?" |
| 38029 | Two? |
| 38029 | Want to see them? |
| 38029 | Was yo''ma a studyin''''bout yo''doin''s when she done giv''yo''dat name? |

| 38029 | When he had finished she looked at him sharply and said:"You know what dat chile''oughter be named? |
| 38029 | When we were talking about selling these things she almost cried when she spoke about the garden tools and the lamp----""_ What_ lamp, child? |
