36650Supposing Bacon had prepared either the one or the other, what could he do with it?
36650Those of his own age, or those who were living at the time?
36650Upon the conviction_ This must be done_ followed at once_ How_ may it be done?
36650Was its significance of general knowledge amongst printers and readers, or was it an earmarking device used by one person, or by a Society?
36650Was the"French Academie"Bacon''s_ temporis partus maximus_?
36650What are the published writings referred to?
36650What can these allusions mean but that Burghley had been rendering financial assistance to his nephew?
36650What effect might the advancement of Francis Bacon have on Robert Cecil''s career?
36650What had happened to the translators''work whilst it was left in his hands?
36650What justification is there for calling him the father of the Inductive Philosophy?
36650What might be the outcome if this rare and unaccustomed suit were granted?
36650What was his motive in selecting this insignificant little volume of essays whereby to proclaim himself a writer?
36650What was this enterprise?
36650What was this suit?
36650Where are these works to be found?
36650Where are they to be found?
36650Where can the fulfilment of his promise be found?
36650Where had all the money gone?
36650Where is Bacon''s library?
36650Who but the writer of the Shakespeare plays could have written that specimen of musical language?
36650Who can explain the"Latent Process"?
36650Who does bury manuscripts?
36650Who were the contemporaries alluded to?
36650Who, to use a Baconian expression, could have depicted man and all his passions more_ ad vivum_?
36650Why should I sacrifice them to a study of the common laws?
36650Why were they published, and how was the cost provided?
36650_ Ingenioso._--40 shillings?
36650_ Rea._--But who is he that hath thy books repar''d, And added moe, whereby thou are more graced?
2431What others?
2431Ah, now, what do you take me for?
2431Am I in the right?
2431And people will say,"Whose business is it, what gods I worship and what things hold sacred?
2431And permanently so?
2431And what does the same high authority say about Shakespeare?
2431Approach thou_ what_ are you laying in the leads for?
2431But not as a_ celebrity_?
2431CHAPTER IX Did Francis Bacon write Shakespeare''s Works?
2431CHAPTER XI Am I trying to convince anybody that Shakespeare did not write Shakespeare''s Works?
2431CHAPTER XII-- Irreverence One of the most trying defects which I find in these-- these-- what shall I call them?
2431Can we then for a moment believe that, if this had been so, tradition would have been absolutely silent on the matter?
2431Did he have something to say-- this Shakespeare- adoring Mississippi pilot-- anent Delia Bacon''s book?
2431Did she forget me, in the course of time?
2431Did these labors of Hercules fill up his time to his contentment, and quiet his appetite for work?
2431Do you remember"Beautiful Snow"?
2431Do you remember"Rock Me to Sleep, Mother, Rock Me to Sleep"?
2431Does this mean that in Stratford he was not regarded as a celebrity of_ any_ kind?
2431Had the inquirer an engagement to see a dog- fight and could n''t spare the time?
2431Have the Works been claimed by a dozen?
2431Here, master; what cheer?
2431How did he acquire these rich assets?
2431IS SHAKESPEARE DEAD?
2431If I am better than a thug, is the merit mine?
2431If she had lived in Stratford in Shakespeare''s time, would she have forgotten him?
2431Make me a child again just for to- night"?
2431Maybe it is so, but have the experts spoken, or is it only Tom, Dick, and Harry?
2431Of Stratfordians who had known Shakespeare or had seen him?
2431Shall I set down the rest of the Conjectures which constitute the giant Biography of William Shakespeare?
2431The mouse is missing: the question to be decided is, where is it?
2431Then of Stratfordians who had seen people who had known or seen people who had seen Shakespeare?
2431Was he disarmed?
2431Was he prejudiced against the art?
2431Was he silenced?
2431Was n''t it worth while?
2431Was n''t the matter of sufficient consequence?
2431Was there any doubt as to who had made that mighty trail?
2431Were there a dozen claimants?
2431Were there two?
2431Were they asked?
2431What did Mr. Barclay do then?
2431What does the Hindu say?
2431What would the captain of any sailing- vessel of our time say to that?
2431Who did write these Works, then?
2431Who has the right to dictate to my conscience, and where did he get that right?"
2431Who was it, then?
2431Why a dozen, instead of only one or two?
2431Why did not the inquirer hunt them up and interview them?
2431Why were n''t they?
2431Why?
2431Would I be so soft as that, after having known the human race familiarly for nearly seventy- four years?
2431Would they if they had been asked?
2431_ Materials_?
2431did n''t you_ know_ she''d smell the reef if you crowded it like that?
36837But how ought I to start with writing?
36837But why should n''t the public buy my first attempt?
36837But,commented_ Punch_,"could she do any better than that even after she_ had_ slept on it?"
36837Did_ I_ write that beautiful passage about the moon silvering the tree- tops? 36837 He ran joyfully to meet his master, wagging his tail the while"?
36837I expect you are saying to yourself,''What was it that happened?'' 36837 Just give this story to the editor will you, please?"
36837Mr. Blank of our city-- never heard of him? 36837 The newspaper is read by everybody every day,"you may tell me,"and what has it done for their style?"
36837The pleasure has been mine,I assured him, and inquired how long he had been in England?
36837What is wrong with it?
36837Who desires to be''ladylike''?
36837Almost unconsciously the back of his mind is filled with the thought,"What will the public think of ME when they read this?"
36837And a very pretty home it was, no doubt; but why spoil it by the introduction of"to wit"?
36837And have you ever read a story that opened with"A dripping November fog enveloped the city"?
36837And then the question arise-- Why should all the eligible men in the town have proposed to her?
36837And would it not be more straightforward to say,"He was two years older than she"?
36837But do you, I wonder?
36837But in any case, do n''t sit down at the first rebuff and say,"What''s the good of anything?
36837But it does not wear-- why?
36837Cut it out?
36837Do they know everything about you-- your ideals and inner struggles, and aims and aspirations?
36837Does your heroine decide to leave her millionaire- father''s palatial home and hide her identity in slum- work and a room in a tenement?
36837How does he know?
36837If not-- why not?
36837Is it likely, then, that he would want another contribution calmly informing his readers that the previous article was entirely wrong and unreliable?
36837Is it to expose some social wrong, or to enlist sympathy for suffering and misfortune?
36837Is it to induce a light- hearted and care- free frame of mind, or to make the reader think?
36837Is it to make people smile, or to make them weep?
36837Is it to pander to a vicious taste, or to foster clean ideals?
36837Is it to provide excitement, or to act as a soothing restorative to tired nerves and brain?
36837Misnamed, you say?
36837Now why is it that the girl who starts out to write fiction loves to introduce her heroine in this wise?
36837Now, would she have said that, personally, either to a friend or to a class, if they were going out for a country walk?
36837Perhaps you feel that you are a Dante?
36837Something like that?
36837The astonished preacher asked, indignantly,"Where?"
36837The beginner seldom pauses to inquire: What is my object in writing this article?
36837The craving for"self- expression"is one of the characteristics of this century; and what better medium is there for this than writing?
36837Three Essentials in Training"How am I to set about training for literary work?"
36837What are_ you_ proposing to say about the dog?
36837What can be easier therefore than to write a story in diary form?
36837What does it all amount to, this perversion of legitimate words or introduction of meaningless ones?
36837What, I have secrets from you?
36837Who would dream of measuring the influence of_ Punch_, for instance, by the figures of its circulation?
36837Why did she make that irritable remark?
36837Why is it that the amateur so often describes the cottager in this"poor but pious"strain?
36837Why not have said,"The sun was setting"?
36837Why should n''t we do likewise?
36837Why"some"two summers, I wonder?
36837Why?
36837Why?
36837Yet how few amateurs stop to consider whether what they write is really entertaining?
36837Yet what is gained by all this, save a definite amount of delay?
36837You think this sounds like reducing writing to a purely mechanical process, in which genius does not count?

5384Admitting?
5384Am I to understand that you wish me to do my part in concealing your identity?
5384And can you account for his coming to Asquith?
5384And can you expect a man to like a book which admits that women are the more constant?
5384And is the resemblance so close as that?
5384Any more what?
5384Anything else?
5384But it is like him?
5384But why did he come out here?
5384Can you tell me that?
5384Did any one else come?
5384Do n''t you think this a little uncalled for?
5384Do you know anything about that man, Miss Trevor?
5384Do you know whom he took for Desmond, Mr. Allen? 5384 Does n''t Mr. Allen remind you a little of Desmond?"
5384Does n''t it make you wish to dance?
5384Does she appear to be in,--ah,--in good spirits?
5384Found that out long ago,he replied with conviction, and added:"Then you think I need not anticipate any trouble from her?"
5384Have you read his books?
5384How do I stand over there?
5384How do you do, Jennie?
5384How do you manage to do it?
5384How many gowns believe in their own sermons? 5384 I do n''t set up for a prophet,"said Mr. Cooke,"but I did predict that I would start a ripple here, did n''t I?"
5384I wonder how she will get along with the Ten?
5384If you were I, would you go?
5384If you will forgive my curiosity,I said,"what has he told you?"
5384Is he handsome? 5384 Is n''t it awful?
5384Is the judge locked up, old man?
5384Is your master leaving?
5384Of what use is tact to a woman if not for just such occasions?
5384Or with Allen?
5384Professional?
5384Something compromising?
5384Then he has broken it?
5384True,I said;"why do you ask?"
5384Well?
5384What can you mean?
5384What do you mean?
5384What do you think of that? 5384 What does he look like, Irene?"
5384What if the other man should happen along?
5384What is it you know about this queer but gifted genius who is here so mysteriously?
5384What the deuce do you mean?
5384Who is that beautiful girl he is dancing with?
5384Why do n''t you come over to see us oftener?
5384Why not? 5384 You have broken the engagement, then?"
5384You know Mr. Allen, then, Miss Thorn?
5384Allen?"
5384Allen?"
5384But how about the woman to whom he has not given his word?
5384But let me ask you something: did you ever yet know a woman who was not inconsistent?"
5384But why go farther?
5384Did it ever strike you that the Celebrity had some exceedingly fine qualities?"
5384Do n''t you think so?"
5384Do you remember how long we tarried over this bit on Friday?"
5384Guilty or not guilty?"
5384Had she fallen in love with him, as was the common fate of all young women he met?
5384How many lawyers believe in their own arguments?"
5384Is n''t she?
5384My invitation had this characteristic note tacked on the end of it"DEAR CROCKER: Where are you?
5384Rollins, where''s the cart?
5384Something of a sendoff, eh?"
5384Tell me,"said he, diving desperately at the root of it,"how does Miss Trevor feel about my getting out?
5384Then she added with a fair unconcern,"do you happen to know where Mr. Allen is this morning?"
5384We are the best of friends already,"she added, turning towards us,"are we not?"
5384What do you think of a man who deserts a woman under those conditions?"
5384What in the world are you thinking of, with your brow all puckered up, forbidding as an owl?"
5384What man, I thought resentfully, would not travel a thousand miles to be near her?
5384What shall I do, Mr. Crocker?
5384What shall I do?"
5384Where is the judge?
5384Why do n''t you come up, Crocker?
5384Why have you been such a stranger?"
5384You remember, do you not, that the hero of that book sacrifices himself for the lady who adores him, but whom he has ceased to adore?"
5384they shouted scornfully,"and do n''t you admit it?"
34214What are thou,he asks of this devilish unexpected lust-- What are thou, that dost creep into my breast; And dar''st not see my face?
34214Why may not_ I_ be a favourite on the sudden?
34214--And not a little of life at Court, and of the favourites with whom King James surrounded himself:--"They say one shall see fine sights at the Court?

34214An allusion to King James''s weakness for handsome young men,"Why may not_ I_ be a favourite in the sudden?"
34214An honest moral man?
34214And then, Why didst thou die so soon?
34214And to conceive it without the remotest suggestion from_ Don Quixote_?
34214And when the Duke asks Lazarillo, thus instructed,"how old are you?"
34214And, for"alls,"and triplets: And whose are all these glories?

34214Are the rooms| made read|y To en|tertain| my friends|?
34214But does that play reveal anything of manlier, sounder fibre than Beaumont''s_ A King and No King_?
34214But how came I( you ask) so much to know?
34214CHAPTER XXVIII DID THE BEAUMONT''ROMANCE''INFLUENCE SHAKESPEARE?
34214Doth not this captive prince Speake me sufficiently, and all the acts That I have wrought upon his suffering land?
34214Fear your great master?
34214Give to each his due?
34214Has it one tithe of the serious insight into human life of any of Beaumont''s plays involving ethical conflict?
34214His Arethusa in_ Philaster_ expresses it in a nutshell: If destiny( to whom we dare not say, Why didst thou this?)
34214Is the great| couch up| the Duke| of Medi|na sent?
34214Is there a hope beyond it?
34214Is| there in me,| to draw submission From this rude man and beast?
34214Or is this purely dramatic utterance?
34214Returning to our young lion, he will, I fear me, exult( with lust of chase or laughter?)
34214Should I then boast?
34214Since many of Collier''s"earnests"turn out to be"jests,"why not the other way round?
34214So far as Fletcher''s_ dramatis personae_ are concerned, there is truth in this; but why couple Beaumont with him?
34214The following lines may be regarded as typical: Is great Jove jealous that I am imploy''d On her Love- errands?
34214To| the fair Prin|cess?
34214What art is thine, that so thy friend deceives?
34214What fate is mine, that so it selfe bereaves?
34214Where lies that foot of ground Within| his whole| realme ¦ that| I have| not past Fighting and conquering?
34214Where other than in Shakespeare do we find among the Jacobean poets such verse?

5385Allen?
5385And do you mean to say in soberness, Uncle Fenelon, that you believe the author of The Sybarites to be a defaulter?
5385And the moral?
5385And what about it?
5385Are you going to do it?
5385Did n''t any of you fellows strike a cave, or a hollow tree, or something of that sort, knocking around this morning?
5385Did she say that?
5385Do n''t much blame him, do you? 5385 Do n''t you think we had better leave them alone?"
5385Do you know a dish- cloth when you see one?
5385Do you refuse to say anything in the face of such evidence as that?
5385Do you remember the night she came,I asked,"and we sat with her on the Florentine porch, and Charles Wrexell recognized her and came up?"
5385Do you think we had better go?
5385Does the study of law eliminate humanity?
5385Escaped?
5385Extraordinary? 5385 Fenelon,"said Mrs. Cooke, gravely,"do you realize what you are saying?"
5385Have you read The Sybarites?
5385Hold on,said the Celebrity,"who told you to do that?"
5385How about hoisting the spinnaker, mate?
5385How long am I to be made a butt of for the amusement of a lot of imbeciles?
5385How long is this little game of yours to continue,--this bull- baiting?
5385Irene,said Mr. Trevor,"can it be possible that you have stolen away for the express purpose of visiting this criminal?"
5385Is that so?
5385Miss Thorn?
5385Mr. Cooke, do you happen to have any handcuffs on the Maria?
5385Mr. Crocker,he cried,"are you, as attorney of this district, going to aid and abet in the escape of a fugitive from justice?"
5385Mr. Crocker,she called,"would you like to make yourself useful?"
5385Oh, is that all?
5385See here, Farrar,said I,"what is your opinion of Miss Thorn?"
5385Should n''t we be getting back?
5385Take the helm until I get my mackintosh, will you, Farrar?
5385Tell me, Mr. Trevor,said he,"why I should sit before you as a tribunal?
5385We?
5385What about it?
5385What action do you mean?
5385What are you going to do about it?
5385What are you going to do?
5385What did you put in?
5385What do you mean?
5385What evidence?
5385What in hell do you make of that, Crocker?
5385Where the devil is Allen?
5385Why, then, does she accept and return the attentions of the Celebrity?
5385You certainly do n''t imagine that I am going to be left behind?
5385You here, Crocker?
5385Allen?"
5385And how could they have foreseen that a detective was on his way to the island?"
5385And if a bear should devour the author of The Sybarites, would the world ever forgive me?
5385And that''s the fastest sail- boat he could hire there, is n''t it?"
5385And why have I been made a fool of by two people whom I had every cause to suppose my friends?"
5385And you claim to be he?"
5385Because a man who happens to be my double commits a crime, is it right that I, whose reputation is without a mark, should be made to suffer?
5385But are n''t they damned handsome?"
5385But what did she say?"
5385But where is the reason in all this?
5385But why should I be justifying myself?
5385Could I ever repay the debt to the young women of these United States?
5385Crocker?"
5385Did she wink?
5385Do n''t you see we''d all be jugged and fined for assisting a criminal over the border?
5385Do you know whether this gentleman is Charles Wrexell Allen, or whether he is the author?
5385Farrar?"
5385Had she not praised him, and defended him, and become indignant when I spoke my mind about him?
5385I ask you, is it reasonable for him to state coolly after all this that he is another man?
5385In short, do you know who he is?"
5385Is it not so?"
5385Is that what troubles you?"
5385Presently she burst out:"Mr. Crocker, why is it that you avoid Miss Thorn?
5385That he is a well- known author?
5385That you intend to assist him to escape from justice?
5385Was the Celebrity not undergoing the crucial test of a true sport?
5385What do you think of that?"
5385What in Halifax do I care for your divine- right- of- authors theory?
5385What put Miss Thorn into your head?"
5385What the devil could I do with him?"
5385What''s the use of bucking when you''re saddled with a thing like that?"
5385Who shall criticise Mr. Cooke''s code of morality?
5385Why I should take the trouble to clear myself of a senseless charge?
5385Why is it you wish to get Mr. Allen over the border, then?"
5385Why should he, when he was innocent?
5385Why, in the name of all his works, did he stay there?
5385you deny me?"

34940''Do you often have such lively times in Virginia City?''
34940''How''s your arm, Jack?''
34940''Were you not,''he asked eagerly,''Senior Wrangler in''43?''
34940''What in the name of common sense has that got to do with you?''
34940''What you mean by pigeon milk, homepatty soup, and de brick?
34940''Where did you hear about that battle?''
34940''Why, my dear fellow,''he said,''do n''t you see?
34940''Ye did n''t expect her to marry a nobleman, did ye?''
34940After a careful survey of the magistrate and a pinch of the flesh to make sure that he was not dreaming, he exclaimed:--"Ned McGowan, is that you?"
34940After a pause he said with a half- pitying, half- humorous smile:--"''Pike-- aren''t you?''
34940Are you and she any blood relation that you know of?''
34940But did it fail?
34940But the Reader may ask, why were the laws not enforced?

34940Then, after a pause of reflection, he looked up and said:"Will your Honor_ lend_ me fifty dollars so that I can pay this last fine?"

47455If so, about how long would it take you to write 40,000 words?
47455In this little world, so crowded with sorrow and tragedy, what is it worth to have had a share in making life pleasant for a stranger?
47455Is THAT the kind of an incident you want?
47455Is he careful to count the letters and spaces in his story title and figure to place the title in the exact middle of the page?
47455Is it because of their interest in their writers?
47455Is it necessary to dwell upon the importance of a carbon copy of every story offered through the mails, or entrusted to the express companies?
47455Is it pleasant for an author to see his cherished Western idea worked out with painted white men for Indians and painted buttes for a background?
47455Is this easy?

47455It is related that the actress, who was probably as excited as Ade, answered,"What''s the difference?"
47455John Peter, should this ever meet your eyes will you please communicate further with the author of"A Study in Red?"

47455Mr. Howells asked:"Did you write this poem yourself?"
47455Now, if I told that editor what an ass he had made of himself, would he ever buy another manuscript of me again?
47455Now, pray, what is one to think of this?
47455O. K.?
47455Or did his father really die by giving up his pony to the"beautiful young white girl?"
47455Or is that just a part of the story?

47455Sleek.--We''ve got you at last, eh?
47455The quality of mind possessed by the scholarly editor and the street boys who read''Bowery Billy''must be somewhat the same-- eh?
47455This doctrine, I am afraid, is at present carried much too far; for why should writing differ so much from other arts?
47455To draw the matter still finer, is either form of fiction vicious?
47455WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH IT?
47455Was the purely commercial aim, although held to with a strong sense of moral responsibility, the correct aim?
47455We''ll be taking a few chances, but what of that?
47455Were the nickel novels and the popular paper- backs to rise in judgment against him?
47455What affairs had Edwards to settle?
47455What are the feelings of an author when he opens his first book for the first time?
47455What if the Happy Idea does not come when I am ready for it?
47455What shall these men do with their"little gift"but keep it grinding, merciless though the grind may be?
47455What should he do with it?
47455What was the very lowest figure Edwards would take for it?
47455What was there in the work he had done which made it impossible to put"John Milton Edwards"on the title page of his most ambitious effort?
47455Where should they go?
47455Where, he asked himself, was he to place his material in the meantime?
47455Who can measure the debt?
47455Who have been the patrons of the Factory for these twenty- two years, and what have been the returns?
47455Why a nickel library and not a"yellow"newspaper?
47455Why in blazes ca n''t people think up something new?''"
47455Why not have the underscore raised to the position of a hyphen and so have a dash that_ is_ a dash?
47455Why not turn the marked paragraphs into verse, with strong influence on story?
47455Why should Edwards write one when he already had on hand the mystery story unsuccessfully entered in the old_ Chicago Daily News_ contest?
47455Why should n''t the dollar book show a higher grade of craftmanship?
47455Will you pardon my display of interest?
47455Yet, what was the result?
5386Algiers, for one place, and whom do you think I saw there, in the lobby of a hotel?
5386And they''re telling me he was on Bear Island with ye? 5386 And what brings you here?"
5386But did n''t Allen tell you any more?
5386But what in mystery are you doing there?
5386But why?
5386Crocker,he said,"how far is it to the Canadian Pacific?"
5386Crocker,said our host,"do you happen to have met the author of that book?
5386Dead?
5386Did he write The Sybarites?
5386Do n''t you see that I''m ruined if we''re caught?
5386Do you really believe that?
5386Do you see that stream which comes foaming down the notch into the lake in front of us?
5386Do you think his principles contagious?
5386Do you think me a very wicked girl?
5386Do you, now?
5386Drew, of course,I said;"who else?"
5386Engaged to you?
5386Go on with your story,said Marian;"what did he do?"
5386Hello, Crocker, old man,shouted my client,"did you think I was never coming back?
5386How did you know?
5386How much are you fellows equal to?
5386How near are they, old man?
5386How will that suit you?
5386How?
5386Is it the truth you''re saying, sir?
5386Is it too much to ask what you were thinking of?
5386Is it true,Miss Trevor asked,"that a story must contain the element of love in order to find favor with the public?"
5386Is n''t that rather natural?
5386Is n''t the man?
5386Is that Mr. Cooke''s yacht, the Maria? 5386 Is this so?"
5386John,said Marian to me, a suspicion of the truth crossing her mind,"John, can it be the bicycle man?"
5386McCann,I asked sternly,"what have you had on the, tug?"
5386McCann,said I,"what made you come back to- day?"
5386Mr. Cooke,said the senator,"may I suggest something which seems pertinent to me, though it does not appear to have occurred to you?"
5386Mr. Crocker, do you think there is any danger that he will lose his way?
5386Mr. Crocker,she began again, when she had regained her speech,"shall I tell you of a great misfortune which might happen to a girl?"
5386My opinion?
5386Now, sir,asked Farrar,"what do you propose to do with Allen?"
5386Sure, Mr. Crocker,he said,"what would you be doing in such company as I''m hunting for?
5386The gentleman was aboard your boat, sir, when you left that country place of yours,--what d''ye call it? 5386 Then what''s the use of asking me?"
5386Then you believe they''re after us?
5386What are we doing this for?
5386What can it mean?
5386What did he do?
5386What do you mean?
5386What do you think of it?
5386What is it?
5386What was he? 5386 Where, in India?
5386Who could have informed?
5386Who told him?
5386Why did n''t you say something about this before?
5386Why do you say that? 5386 Why do you suppose I came out?"
5386Why not?
5386You are quite beyond me, Miss Trevor,I answered;"may I request you to put that remark in other words?"
5386You do n''t suppose I think you fool enough to risk this comedy if the man were guilty, do you? 5386 You say he was here in October?"
5386''My dear fellow,''said he,''you did me the turn of my life.--How can I ever repay you?''
5386''Why not go West?''
5386--Mohair?
5386A police commissioner?"
5386And Miss Thorn?
5386And how?
5386And this most embarrassing young woman demanded presently:"How did it happen, Marian?
5386By the way, he''s the very deuce of a man, is n''t he?
5386CHAPTER XVII"Crocker, old man, Crocker, what the devil does that mean?"
5386Can it be that ye''re helping to lift a criminal over the border?"
5386Can they sentence me for assisting Allen to get away, Crocker?
5386Could it be that the district attorney was looking calmly on while Mr. Cooke wilfully corrupted the Far Harbor chief- of- police?
5386Could she really have meant it, after all?
5386Crocker?"
5386Crocker?"
5386Crocker?"
5386Did it electrify his hearers?
5386Did you know that he actually believed you were doing your best to get married to the Celebrity?"
5386Did you propose to him?"
5386Do you happen to have such a thing?"
5386Do you know where I would put you, Mr. Trevor?
5386Do you know where you ought to be?
5386Do you remember the cotillon, or whatever it was, that Cooke gave?
5386Does n''t your conscience smart?"
5386Had he come to the conclusion that it was just as well to submit to what seemed the inevitable and so enjoy the spice of revenge over me?
5386Had she not practised insincerity before?
5386Have I done wrong in leading the Celebrity to the point where you saw him this morning?"
5386Have you reflected that there are some others who deserve to be consulted and considered beside Mr. Allen and yourself?"
5386Have you reflected that you are about to ruin your careers?"
5386His face was a study:"And-- And you think I am going to get in there?"
5386How was it possible when I did n''t know myself?
5386I was blindly seeking some way of escape when she said softly:"Did you really care?"
5386If we''d fixed the thing up between us it could n''t have been any neater, could it?
5386Mr. Crocker, will you be my attorney if he should offer any objections?"
5386Or was it at one of those drawing- room shows where a medium holds conversation with your soul, while your body sleeps on the lounge?
5386Was it possible that I, like Mr. Trevor, had been deprived of all the morals I had ever possessed?
5386Was it the yacht?
5386Was one standing on the ground looking at his double go to heaven?
5386Was there?
5386Was this audacity or stupidity?
5386Was this cherished scheme a whim or a joke to be lightly cast aside?
5386What but such could have commanded the unremitting labors of that morning?
5386What did the man mean?
5386What else was there to be done?
5386What if Miss Thorn had warned me in order to save the Celebrity from humiliation?
5386What man in a public position, however humble, has not political enemies?
5386What more natural than, with her cleverness, she had hit upon this means of terminating the author''s troubles by working upon my fears?
5386What would you do if a man who had gone a little out of his mind asked you for a gun to shoot himself with?
5386What''s a pipe and a trail of smoke?"
5386Why in the name of the law did n''t he make a move?
5386Why not carry the thing farther?
5386Why was it?"
5386Why was that abominable word"like"ever put into the English language?
5386Will ye listen to this?"
5386said the Englishman;"what a very entertaining chap he is, is he not?
5386she demanded;"is it true that you are engaged to marry Miss Trevor?"
33148I beg your pardon, sir,he says,"will you take a seat in here for a moment?"
33148''And do you like this evening time?''
33148''And do you live far away?''
33148''And do you try to be awfully good, Valentine?''
33148''And do you understand them?''
33148''And have you ever tried writing anything?''
33148''And the bright wit, the rollicking humour with which I made your pages sparkle, where are they?''
33148''And what do you read now?''
33148''And what do you think about?''
33148''And what does Mama think of it?''
33148''And what else does your Mama say about literature, Valentine?''
33148''And what makes you like to come and sit here?''
33148''And what would you do, Valentine, with heaps of money?''
33148''And who was that old fellow that helped us so much?''
33148''And you do n''t know where he is now?''
33148''But do n''t you think your invention would give way ultimately?''
33148''Could n''t you sort of shake''em up and condense''em, you know?
33148''Did anyone ever read you out of all those I sent you to?''
33148''Do editors read manuscript by unknown authors?''
33148''Have n''t an idea-- isn''t he in school?''
33148''Have you seen what they say about your_ Cornhill_ story?''
33148''I see,''said the publisher thoughtfully--''well, could n''t you pare''em down; give the first verse entire and sorter sample the others?''
33148''Is Mr.---- at home?''
33148''Never thought there were so many of the blamed things alive,''said the latter with great simplicity,''had you?''
33148''Now why?''
33148''Well, my boy?''
33148''Well, sir?''
33148''Well, then, why did you tell the boy that it should be taken with water?''
33148''Well,''he says,''are we finished?
33148''Well,''said he,''what would you think of trying to write a story?''
33148''Well?''
33148''What can you read?''
33148''What is a book?''
33148''What is a pound?''
33148''What is the use of saying I am?''
33148''What things?''
33148''What''s that?''
33148''Where then?''
33148''Where''s my dear old Blackstone?''
33148''Why?''
33148''Yes,''I said to the little pink imp;''as a study the room had its drawbacks, but we lived some grand hours there, did n''t we?
33148''Yes,''he answered;''do n''t you?''
33148''Yes?''
33148''You read it to her?''
33148After he had read it he said,''I suppose you want my_ candid_ opinion?''
33148And was I to be dubbed a scribbler, and pitied for my weakness?
33148And what the reason that stood between its inheritors and their enjoyment of it?
33148Are our young men, as are the youth of China, to be forbidden to think, because Confucius thought years ago?
33148At the end of about five minutes, he, without looking up, says curtly,"What name?"
33148But he only said,''Where is Y.?''
33148But is it not singular that you should doubt the only incident in the story which I personally verify?
33148But, says the eminent literary authority, why write at all, at any time, about the supernatural?
33148Did he die mad, or was he a MAN, and did he rise out of all doubt and terror?
33148Did he not come to me in the days of weariness, making my heart glad and proud?
33148Do I not love him the more for his shortcomings?
33148Does he come up to your ideal?''
33148From the sorrow that he dreams, may he not learn sympathy with the sorrow that he sees?
33148Has the deeply- cherish''d Aspiration perished, And are you happy, David, in that heaven where you dwell?
33148Have we talked about ourselves, glorified our profession, and annihilated our enemies to our entire satisfaction?
33148Have you found the secret We, so wildly, sought for, And is your soul enswath''d at last in the singing robes you fought for?
33148How could I expect to dispose of work subject to such a legal''servitude''?
33148I asked myself, Who is interested in the Merchant Service?
33148I replied,''How should I know?
33148I suppose I ought to be ashamed of him, but how can I be?
33148I wrote at the close of the story:''Are there no troubles now?''
33148In a few seconds he flies back again with"Will you kindly step this way, sir?"
33148Is he not my first- born?
33148May not his own brave puppets teach him how a man should live and die?
33148Mr. William Stevens was the only editor that I knew to whom I could go and say,''Is this right?''
33148Need I say that it was told in the first person and in the present tense, and that the heroine was anything but good- looking?
33148One of them asked at once''Is it Klaas Lammerts''s?''
33148Our friend with his infinite variety and flexibility, we know-- but can we put him in?
33148People would lounge into the shop, turn over the leaves of other volumes, say carelessly,''Got a new book of California poetry out, have n''t you?''
33148See?''
33148Seeing the book lying on the table, she took a volume up, saying--[ Illustration: A STUDY CORNER]''Oh, have you read''Dawn''?
33148So far, so good; but what was the treasure to be?
33148Stay-- did I not say my literary history?
33148Suddenly it said, a little more distinctly:''Please, sir, could you tell me the time?''
33148The talk turned upon early struggles, and, with a laugh, he said:''Do you know one of the foolish things I love to do?
33148The wit you appreciate now needs to be more pungent than the wit that satisfied you at twenty; are you sure it is as wholesome?
33148Therefore, when I hear that editors will not read contributions, I ask if things have changed in twenty years-- and why?
33148Thinking of his heroine''s failings, of his villain''s virtues, may he not grow more tolerant of all things, kinder thinking towards man and woman?
33148This apologetic attitude, is it not the ca nt of the literary profession?
33148Was I not ready to write an acrostic at a moment''s notice on the name of the sweetheart of any fellow who asked me to do it?
33148We can put in the quaint figure that spoke a hundred words with us yesterday by the wayside; but do we know him?
33148What became of him?
33148What did he feel?
33148What did he think?
33148What did my isolation matter, when I had all the gods of Greece for company, to say nothing of the fays and trolls of Scottish Fairyland?
33148What has happened to you?
33148What have you done with it all?''
33148What have you done with them?
33148What is it?''
33148What mercy could_ I_ expect from one who had never forgiven''Johnny''Keats for his frightful perversion of the sacred mystery of Endymion and Selene?
33148What public shall I find to listen to me?
33148What were his superstitions?
33148What wicked fairy has bewitched you?
33148What''s the good?
33148Where are the roses of last summer, the snows of yester year?
33148Where are they all now?
33148Who ever lost a manuscript that was n''t?
33148Why?
33148Why?''
33148Will he please her to all time?
33148Will it be possible to interest ladies in forecastle life and in the prosaics of the cabin?
33148Will she always be sweet and gracious to him?
33148Will she never tire of him?
33148Would the editor only-- only take their article?
33148Yet what could one do?
33148You can not smile at humour you would once have laughed at; is it you or the humour that has grown old and stale?
33148You giving more soon?
33148[ Illustration: A POLICEMAN TOLD HIM TO GET DOWN]''When did you last see Y.?''
33148[ Illustration: IT''TOOK OFF''FROM HIS SHOULDER]''Are you never afraid?''
33148[ Illustration: MRS. HALL CAINE(_ From a photograph by A. M. Pettit_)] Shall I ever forget the agony of the first efforts?

33148and who was horrified at the base''modernism''of Shelley''s''Prometheus Unbound?''
33148now?
33148or''Is that wrong?''
33148what has become of all these ladies?
38887All those hours were required?

38887Can Dickens, Thackeray, and George Meredith be reduced to an academic schedule?
38887Can it be defined?
38887Can the diamonds be taken from the lady while she is wearing them?
38887Can you imagine Drumsheugh in Gallic?
38887Could anything be more wooden than this perpetual"said he, said she,"which I have accentuated by putting into italics?
38887Did Homer satisfy our love of recorded adventure once and for all?
38887Do we not selfishly wish that Miss Olive Schreiner had never left the veldt, in the loneliness of which she produced"The Story of an African Farm"?
38887Do you feel the throb of the life of that period about which you are going to write?
38887Do you know how a cab- driver mounts on to the box, or the shape of a coal- heaver''s mouth when he cries"Coal!"?
38887Do you know how their minds work?
38887Do you suppose you are infallible in these commonplace things?
38887Does it mean"seeing things"?
38887Does this seem to be too big a programme?
38887E. P. Roe: why have they a circulation numbered by the million?
38887First of all, What kind of a novel is yours to be?
38887First of all, what is the difference between a novel and a short story?
38887For what reason?
38887Have the stress and turmoil of a political career no charm?
38887Have those who object to this recommendation ever thought of what practising novel- writing means?
38887Have we not noticed over and over again that the first book of a novelist is his best?
38887Have you never read novels where the characters are made to walk miles of country in as many minutes?
38887Here is a sample from"The Egoist":"Have you walked far to- day?"
38887Historical?
38887How can the strong room be entered and robbed?
38887How is that knowledge to be obtained?
38887How long does it take to make a couple of experiments of 80,000 words each?
38887How many Words a Day?
38887How shall we find it?
38887How will this affect your choice of characters?
38887If so, have you read all the authorities?
38887If, as has been said,"windiness"is the chief fault of the beginner, where can he learn to correct that error more quickly?
38887Is it exhausted?
38887Is it that the dignity of genius forbids it, or that pupilage is half a disgrace?
38887Is not the plot concealed in the idea?
38887Is the idea any good?
38887Is there a Deeper Question?
38887Is there anything new?
38887It may be a disputed question as to whether women understand women better than men: the point is, do_ you_ understand them?
38887Male devil or female devil?
38887Men and women have written about love from time immemorial, but have we finished with the theme?
38887Might the house be broken into by a burglar on a night when a lady had worn them and returned?
38887Novelty, freshness, and excitement are to be sought for at all hazards, and where can they be found?
38887Now the question arises: What was the quarrel about?
38887Now, in what way will our would- be artist become acquainted with those rules?
38887Now, to which class is your projected novel to belong?
38887Now, what is the first thing to do?
38887Perhaps you object to this kind of literary dissection?
38887Should not a man perfect himself in the less minute and less delicate methods of the novel before he attempts the finer art of the short story?
38887The man who sits at the far end of the car in a shabby coat, and who is regarding his boots with a fixed, anxious stare-- what is he thinking about?
38887The next question is, How are you to make a start?
38887Then by whom?
38887Then where, it may be asked, do novelists get their stories?
38887There were plenty of dramas before Shakespeare but there were no Shakespeares; and to- day there are thousands of novels but how many real novelists?
38887To what use will they put the unprecedented opportunity thrown in their way?
38887Was style communicable?
38887We have schools of Painting, Sculpture, and Music-- why not a school of Fiction?
38887Well, what do you know about women?
38887What About Dialect?
38887What about the Newspapers?
38887What are they to talk about?

38887Where shall I go to find my thoughts with the greatest ease and most perfect freedom?
38887Where to obtain this knowledge?

38887Why all this careful detailing of the Customs House, the manners and the talk of the people?
38887Why do the American novelists inveigh against plots?
38887Why should it not be developed into a matured school?

38887Why?
38887Why?
38887Will they listen to Robert Louis Stevenson?
38887You think it spoils the effect of a work of art to be too familiar with its physiology?
38887_ Is_ style communicable?

38887and the thousand and one trivialities that go to make up character portrayal?
38887and what is his history?

38887or Jamie Soutar?
38887or a woman when hiding feelings of love?
38887or is it likely to be obsolete in the near future?
38887or was it not?

21755''Ow much for a fard''n?
21755Ah, ai n''t it prime? 21755 An''did ye see nothin''more of''er arter that?"
21755An''what are statters?
21755An''what was they?
21755Are there many winzes, Captain Jan?
21755Are you all right on deck?
21755Are you an honest boy?
21755Are you goin''to bust yourself wi''larfin'', by way of gettin''a happetite for the breakfast that you hain''t no prospect of?
21755But suppose he is not ruined-- that he manages, by gambling, to support himself?
21755But what if the gambler has no family?
21755Could I find Saint Paul''s, or the Moniment? 21755 Could you find it again?"
21755D''ye want''em?
21755Do you believe that a miser is a morally diseased man?
21755Does he?
21755Does it not?
21755For why?
21755For_ one_ fard''n?
21755Haere du, fiskman,( hear you, fisherman), she cried,"vil du har otte skillings?"
21755How deep is it?
21755How ever did you manage it, Dick?
21755How many child''n, say''ee? 21755 How many have you had altogether, Dan?"
21755Howlet,said the other impressively,"d''ye think the Wilkins is livin''in the same place still?"
21755I see you''re in a hurry; how much do you want?
21755If so, why do you lose interest in the game when there are no stakes?
21755Is n''t that much the same thing?
21755Is not that fatalism of the most pronounced nature, Tom?
21755Man alive I do n''t ye know? 21755 May I sit up in the dining- room to- night, father, till two in the morning?"
21755Please, sir, does the Wilkins stop here?
21755Pump, sur?
21755That, sur? 21755 Then I suppose that you consider gambling, even to the smallest extent, to be sin?"
21755There-- wasn''t that a light?
21755Under which of the ten commandments does it fall?
21755Well, what happened arter that?
21755Well,said he,"what would you think of trying to write a story?"
21755What d''ee want?
21755What disease?
21755What does it pump?
21755What ever is it?
21755What may be your text?
21755What street?
21755What was the use o''my goin''to see''em w''en I''ad nothin''to give''em?
21755What would you advise, old man?
21755What''s that?
21755What''s that?
21755What-- the young man from the country as I''ve see''d standin''at the dock gates day after day for weeks without getting took on?
21755Where away?
21755Where?
21755Why so, Captain Bolter?
21755Why, what ever is the matter with you?
21755Wonder if his mother''as any more like''i m?
21755Would I wait where I was until he returned?
21755Yes-- ain''t it jolly convenient?
21755You do n''t mean it, do you?
21755You mind Dick Wilkin, do n''t you?
21755You see that mark there, sir, on Smith''s Ledge?
21755You''ve not mentioned this to any one, have you, Pat?
21755` Are you a gardener?'' 21755 ` Did you expect to find me in the dinin''-room?''
21755` Do it?'' 21755 ` That?''
21755''Ave you forgotten Howlet?"
21755( will you have eight skillings?)
21755An anxious father says-- if he does not also pray--"What shall I train my boy to be?"
21755And what says the word?
21755But go on, old fellow, what more have you to say against gambling-- for you have not yet convinced me?"
21755But how to do it?
21755But is it not singular that you should doubt the only incident in the story which I personally verified?
21755But what did you dream about''em?"
21755But what fraction of good is done by the gambler in all the wide world?"
21755But what has all this to do wi''your dream?"
21755Comed it soft over the''ousemaid; said I was a gardener in search of a job, an''would she mind tellin''me where the head- gardener was?
21755Did you ever notice that?"
21755Do you know how to tie two blankets or sheets together, so that the knot shall not slip?
21755Do you know how you would attempt to throw water on the walls of one of your rooms, if it were on fire near the ceiling?
21755Do you know of any other mode of exit from your house than by the front or back doors and the staircase?
21755Does not the rich gambler walk away with the money that was due to the poor one''s butcher, baker, brewer, etcetera?"
21755Does the agreement make wrong right?"
21755Fire away, Dick; what see''d you about the statoos?"
21755Has it ever occurred to you to think what you would do if your house took fire at night?
21755Have I not rather, on the contrary, got credit among my friends for being somewhat of a spendthrift?
21755Have you a rope at home which would support a man''s weight, and extend from an upper window to the ground?
21755Have''ee seen anything o''the Red Cross Fleet?"
21755Hence devolves upon every one the responsibility of putting and finding an answer to the question-- How shall I make the best of life?
21755Is it for the sake of getting money that you gamble?"
21755Is it then between themselves?
21755Is not that fair?"
21755Is not this partly owing to that fatal habit of nailing the colours?
21755Is there not something very mean and contemptible in this state of being?
21755Looking at their clean, wholesome faces, neat attire, and orderly demeanour, I thought,"Is it possible that these are the sweepings of the streets?"
21755Man''s first prayer in all his plans of life should be--"Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do?"
21755Need we say that it was a glorious feast?
21755Or is it a matter for surprise that her temper began to give way under the strain?
21755Shall I consult the Pater?
21755Shall I invite the aid of the police?
21755Suddenly she paused, and in a tone of the deepest solemnity, said--"Haere du, fiskman, vil du har ti( ten) shillings?"
21755That''s fair, is n''t it?"
21755The cure for this is to be found-- as usual-- in the Scripture:"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?
21755Vil du tak am dram?
21755W''ereabouts is the cellar?"
21755Was he not in his native wilds?
21755Was he not the son of a noted brave?
21755Was_ he_ going to submit to the disgrace of losing his way; and, what was much worse, losing his feast?
21755Wery odd, ai n''t it, eh, Howlet, that people never is surprised at anything they sees in dreams?
21755What was he to do?
21755What was it, then?"
21755What was yours?"
21755What, then,_ is_ best?
21755Where was the smallest mite of all the guests?
21755With, such a sea running the venture was perilous in the extreme, but when the mission skipper said"Who''ll go?"
21755You see, I did n''t want for to have no more words wi''the gardener,--for why?
21755` Look''ere, my man, what d''ee call that there tree?''
21755` What d''ee want wi''me?''
21755because I''d seen all I wanted to see-- d''ee see?
21755but I_ was_ bad-- that bad that it seemed as if I should be cleared out o''my mortal carcase entirely--""Mulligrumps?"
21755har du fisk to sell?"
21755said I,"wait in a draughty level with an extinguishable candle close to the main shaft, with 30 or 40 miles of levels around, and no end of winzes?
21755she cried,"vil du har_ ni_( nine) skillings?"
61859And to get the_ Jefferson''s_ motors started?
61859But this cavern, Doctor? 61859 But what are you doing here?
61859Camouflage?
61859Danny? 61859 Do n''t look like much from topside, eh, Krassner?
61859Do n''t you see, Brian, this is how you can best serve your country? 61859 Do n''t you understand?
61859Do you,I asked the girl,"know where Mallory is?"
61859Eh?
61859Extra- sensory perception?
61859Glad? 61859 Got a blighty one, did you?"
61859How do we know she''s telling the truth, O''Shea? 61859 How long?
61859How many men have you working here below?
61859I came to you,he said,"because I understand you write stories of-- er-- pseudo- science?"
61859I-- I beg your pardon?
61859Is that you, O''Shea?
61859Is there?
61859It never occurred to you, did it, O''Shea, that I might have concealed on me a portable transmitter? 61859 Janowsky?"
61859Krassner, you mean?
61859Magazines for amusement? 61859 Magazines?"
61859New course? 61859 No one saw you come here, Captain?
61859Oh-- that? 61859 Old man?"
61859Some?
61859That yellow mutt? 61859 The physicist?
61859Then you_ did_ hear us that day?
61859Thomas Mallory?
61859Thought Mallory was insane, eh, Krassner? 61859 Well, Brian O''Shea?"
61859What are you whispering about out there? 61859 What if your granules_ do_ put the Toties to sleep for years instead of days?
61859What is that?
61859What''s the matter, my friend? 61859 What?"
61859When does our flight depart?
61859Where is he? 61859 Where''s Frazier?"
61859Where''s the Old Man, O''Shea?
61859Who-- who are you?
61859Why?
61859Why?
61859Wilson?
61859Yes, Irish?
61859You mean,I asked,"telepathy?"
61859You wonder where it is hidden? 61859 You''re the leader here?
61859_ Eben_ Clinton?
61859_ Jefferson?_repeated Maureen wonderingly.
61859_ Les sales cochons!_ Will it never end, O''Shea, the triumph of these devils? 61859 A moment''s silence, then Krassner, suspiciously,Well?"
61859And now, my friends, if you are ready to return to the surface--?"
61859Are honor and mercy dead?
61859Are n''t you like the man who, in his spare time, built a yacht in his cellar?
61859Are you going to turn the ship?"
61859Are you, or are you not, going to turn about?
61859As she faltered, I snapped,"Know what?
61859Brian, ca n''t I sneak a few of them into my berth instead of sealing them up in the library?
61859But before you leave the laboratory, you know what must be done?"
61859But have n''t you got a radio?
61859But is there any way I can convince you that the words which follow are not my own?
61859But putting a simple message into story form is-- well, why not just let me_ tell_ the guy?
61859But why do you ask--?"
61859But, why--?"
61859But--""But, Brian--?"
61859By word of mouth?"
61859Clinton?"
61859Could I?"
61859Danny Wilson said eagerly,"Did you say the Fourth?
61859Danny, where did Krassner go?"
61859Did you ever hear the name of Frazier Wrenn?"
61859Did you hear anything about--?"
61859Do I?
61859Do n''t you realize--?"
61859Do you mean Antarctica?"
61859Do you think Doc would mind?"
61859Does anyone aboard this ship, now_ he_ is gone?"
61859Does this look like the work of a madman?"
61859Dr. Winslow suggests the philological similarity of such words as_"inertron"_ and_"inactron"?
61859Each new generation of spores would deepen the slumber into which mankind had been soothed by the first--"I said,"But why keep them, Doctor?"
61859Even more important, is there a way I can make you believe that this is not merely another amusing tale, to be read today and forgotten soon?
61859Even then there must have been rumblings in the Balkans, on the Mediterranean?
61859For it was after that I asked Mallory,"Do we go now?
61859From a laboratory out west somewhere?"
61859Go where?"
61859Go?
61859Had it not been told by a wise man, centuries before that,"In Union there is Strength?"
61859He said amiably,"Ay tank maybe you batter lissen to Captain, hey?"
61859He said laboriously,"You would n''t kid a guy, would you, Brian?
61859He said,"Brian--""Yes?"
61859He was pleading with Mallory,"How about it, Doc?
61859How are we ever going to get this monster out of here?"
61859How are we to grow food in the lightless grottoes of the moon?"
61859How long will it take to get everyone out of here?"
61859How swiftly do they propogate?"
61859I cried,"Mac, is he--?"
61859I mean_ him_, Doctor?"
61859I said slowly,"So you''re not one of us, after all, Krassner?
61859I said to the girl,"How about it?"
61859I said, shaken,"But astronomers tell us the Moon is a barren, lifeless world?"
61859I said,"Do n''t look now, but is n''t that doing it the hard way?
61859I said,"You have your dent?"
61859I wanted to ask if--""How long have you been here?"
61859I, Maureen?
61859I, who have written fantasies woven of thin air, now thus to be suddenly thrust into a fantasy beyond my own wildest imaginings?
61859I--""Were you listening to our conversation?"
61859If they hold the east?"
61859In as even a voice as I could muster, I said,"Perhaps you''d like to tell me more?
61859Is God dead?
61859Is he the one you mean?"
61859Is he--?"
61859Is n''t it?
61859Is n''t that better than seeing our countrymen die beneath the sword of the aggressor?
61859Is n''t there some way to effectively destroy them?"
61859Is that you, Ronnie?
61859Is there any way I can tell you how I felt?
61859Is there anything wrong in that?
61859Just one of them anti- craft guns?
61859Mac, do you think you can handle this job alone?"
61859Mallory raised his voice, called mildly,"Krassner?"
61859Mallory?"
61859Maureen said,"But the moon, Doctor?
61859My pal Ross being funny from out Chicago way, maybe?
61859Or Palmer, deserting Tark long enough to joyride me over the well- known hurdles?
61859Pelham- Jones demanded harshly,"St. Louis?
61859Perhaps you''d better start from the beginning?"
61859Red complected?"
61859She cried,"But why the moon, Dr. Mallory?
61859She said, curiously,"Is n''t he the traitor who disappeared from Earth with a group of followers?
61859She said,"Dead, Doctor?"
61859Suppose something should-- I mean-- if anything might happen to you--?"
61859Surely they must have known, as early as 1940, that Sweden would not be the last neutral to be drawn into the conflict?
61859Surely you would n''t be attempting to escape the Toties in this direction?
61859Surely you, who invented the spores, know some way to counteract their action?
61859Tell me-- do you know the formula for chlorophyll?
61859That is why I-- shall we say''dropped into the picture''?
61859The one who pestered the daylights out of the government about some crack- brained invention during the early days of the war?
61859Then,"Now can we have a look at her?
61859They''re so damned weak...."I said,"One of those magazines?
61859This yere Mall''ry-- he a big man?
61859We do n''t seem to be moving toward it?"
61859We go to join Preston?"
61859Well, Cap''n?"
61859What is it you want?"
61859What on earth are you doing in this desolate spot?"
61859What''s the news?"
61859What''s the payoff?"
61859When I permitted small animals-- those you see before you-- to inhale some of the delicate granules--""Granules, Doctor?"
61859Where are you?
61859Where do you think you''re going?"
61859Where is it?"
61859Whether O''Shea was-- or should I say''will be?''
61859White hair?
61859Who are_ you_?
61859Who put you up to this crystal ball stuff?
61859Why not follow the Wrenn expedition--?"
61859Why?
61859Why?"
61859Years ago?
61859You are undoubtedly familiar with his work?"
61859You destroyed the spores?
61859You know him?"
61859You want to save your command, do n''t you, Captain?
61859You''re one of them?"
61859You''re sure of that?"
61859You''re_ sure_ the spores escaped, Brian?"
61859_ now_?"
15762And you earn six shillings per week? 15762 Are we wealthy?"
15762Is this wealthy England?
15762Surely you can not call this anything but poor?
15762Who now reads Bolingbroke?
15762''Surely you can not call this anything but poor?''
15762''Will you step into my room if you have anything to discuss?''
15762***** Who has lived as long as he chose?
15762A rather popular writer, who first came into notice by dint of naming a book of essays,"Is Life worth Living?"
15762ARE WE WEALTHY?
15762Ah, who dares talk of a commonplace or disagreeable sea?
15762Am I colour- blind?"
15762And the landlord takes four shillings for your one room?
15762And yet against the whole current of this tendency to despondency and despair, we have such an essay as"Are we Wealthy?"
15762And you have-- let me see-- four from six leaves two-- yes-- you have two shillings a week to keep you and your three children?
15762Are not the cases analogous to those of the sound reverent student and the weary_ blasà ©_ skimmer of books?
15762Are such people fit for political power?
15762At this point some hard- headed person says,"What about the workhouses?"
15762But had he not savoured joy to the full?
15762But have you seen Thomson''s attack on the Apocrypha?"
15762But, when he writes the glorious passion beginning,"Is that enchanted moan only the swell Of the long waves that roll- in yonder bay?"
15762Ca n''t he go faster over the treble, or whatever they call it?"
15762Can any creature be more dainty, more sweet, more pure, than the ordinary English girl of our day?
15762Can we blame the poor fellow?
15762Can we expect such a collection to contain a large percentage of seemly and useful children?
15762Caw number one says,"Did you notice anything queer about Ishmael as he passed?"
15762Could anything be more graceful and courtly?
15762Do we not observe something analogous taking place in the terrible crush of civilised human life?
15762Do you mean to discourage the honest but poverty- stricken parents who do their best for their children?
15762Do you pay my sixpence for the gallery?
15762Do you think the doleful one would have seen the fun of the remark if she had any power over the body or soul of that devoted child?
15762Does any reader wish to have a perfectly pleasant half- hour?
15762Does anybody in England know a curate who has a salary like that?
15762Does the sentimentalist imagine that the brick- and- mortar structures about which he wails were always centres of festering ugliness?
15762Education?
15762Go to bed?
15762Hard, is it not?
15762Have we gone very far in the direction since Job raged and mourned?
15762He happened to be in a bookseller''s shop when a lady entered and said,"What is the price of Mr. Blank''s works?"
15762Here in rhythmic form we have the thought of the mighty apostle--"O Death, where is thy sting?
15762How could anybody expect a girl to turn out well after the usual course of workhouse training?
15762How would she have fared had that changeable firebrand Romeo taken to wandering once more?
15762I know that the demand is a heavy one; but, ah, when it is adequately met, is not the gain worth all the sacrifices a thousand times over?
15762If a woman is married to a man of limited means, does that give her any right to starve and bully a fellow- creature?
15762If we played Browning''s"Strafford"for them, how much would they be"raised"?
15762If, on the contrary, the sufferer cries,"Why on earth do you go on repeating what you have done?
15762Is a nation rich that can not afford even to keep the kind of men who once defended her?
15762Is it a fact that the Unions usually supply domestics worth keeping?
15762Is it fair that a wearied world and a toil- worn society should maintain them?
15762Is it in the least likely that any sane manager would ill- treat a little child that was required to be pleasing?
15762Is it not to amuse themselves and to pass away time amid false exhilaration?
15762Is it not to gain money without working for it?
15762Is there anything new to say about it?
15762Is there no way of appealing to reason so that they may be led to see that inflicting pain can never bring them anything but a low degree of pleasure?
15762It is useless to say,"What can you expect?"
15762It maybe said,"Would not your hints tend to make people frivolous?"
15762It sounds very horrible, does it not?
15762Joints in his armour who can spy?
15762Need I mention Gibbon, or Froude, or Lingard, or Freeman, or the novelists?
15762Need we pity them?
15762Now I ask plainly,"Can the croakers declare that England was better under Grafton and''Jemmy Twitcher''than she now is?"
15762Now do you think we might vary that noble masterpiece with a waltz?"
15762O Grave, where is thy victory?"
15762One of our poets goes so far as to inquire in an amiable way,"What have we done to thee, O Death?"
15762People meet, and the usual inquiries are exchanged--"Have you read Brown on the Union of 1707?"
15762Shall I talk of the drunken shrew?
15762Shall I tell you, dear sentimentalist, that the Hopeless brigade would not accept your kindness if they could?
15762Superb, is it not?
15762Surely jarring and misery are not necessary in the great world of nations or in the little world of the family?
15762The excessive luxury of the ball shows that some one has wealth, but does it not also seem to show that some one has too much?
15762The fighting was very terrible at the beginning; but we shall be forced at last to adopt a system of truces, and then the question"Are we wealthy?"
15762The housewife was washing some Brussels sprouts, when the little stray said timidly,"Please, may I eat a bit of that stalk?"
15762The poor plutocrat''s face changed instantly, and he would ask,"What is the matter?"
15762The query"Are we wealthy?"
15762The tailors and bootmakers gaze on the gallant Rover with joy and admiration, for does he not carry the triumphs of their art on his person?
15762Then once again the query"Are we wealthy?"
15762To Scott he addressed a series of questions--"Surely you must own that this is bad?"
15762To Scott he addressed a series of questions--''Surely you must own that this is bad?''

15762What matters it?
15762What shall I say about the literary shrew?
15762What shall we do with them?
15762What were their names?
15762What will be found at the end of that time?
15762What would be thought if Lord Salisbury reeled into the House in a totally drunken condition?
15762What would the mean shrew have made of Margaret Catchpole, the Suffolk girl who was transported about one hundred years ago?
15762When she first saw a daisy on the green, she gazed longingly, and then asked plaintively,"Please, might I touch that?"

15762Why should he not?
15762Why should men be mournful because what they call their aspirations-- precious aspirations-- are frustrated?
15762Why should the meanest and most unlearned of us all not strive to follow in the footsteps of the hero?
15762Why should the mighty king have bidden the youth to rejoice after so many awful words had been penned to show the end of all rejoicing?
15762Why should we not speak as frankly of Death as we do of love and life?
15762Why should we uplift our voices in pettish questioning?

8489And can such a feeling be without its effect on the estimation of the wedded life in general?
8489And how could a_ man_ be a mediator between God and man?
8489And shall man alone stoop?

8489As for the House of Lords, what is the use of ever so much fiery spirit, if there be no principle to guide and to sanctify it?
8489At last I was so provoked, that I said to him,"Pray, why ca n''t you say''old clothes''in a plain way as I do now?"
8489Ay, thou unreverend boy, Sir Robert''s son: why scorn''st thou at Sir Robert?
8489Belike you found some rival in your love, then?
8489Besides, can we altogether disregard the practice of the modern Greeks?
8489Bowyer asked me why I had made myself such a fool?

8489But how can it be shown that the principles applicable to an interchange of conveniences or luxuries apply also to an interchange of necessaries?

8489First, however, what does O. P. Q. mean by the word_ happiness_?
8489First, where will you begin your collection of facts?
8489For, has any thing happened that has happened, from any other causes, or under any other conditions, than such as I laid down Beforehand?"
8489G."And why not, Signor?"
8489G."But do you not worship Jesus, who sits on the right hand of God?"
8489G."I''m thinking, Signor, what is the difference between you and us, that you are to be certainly damned?"
8489G."Then why not worship the Virgin, who sits on the left?"

11483***** CHAPTER VI( 1883- 1887)"The Profits of Authorship"--"Rhyme?
11483A portrait of Ellen Terry on the wall had attracted his attention, and one of the first questions he asked was,"Do you ever go to the theatre?"
11483AND REASON?"
11483All of these, except"Novelty and Romancement,"have since been republished in"Rhyme?
11483And afterwards I said to her elder sister"What made you say Barbara could n''t read?
11483And how he got the bicycle?
11483And when I opened the door, who do you think they were?
11483And why not?
11483And, now, what is the"thick end"of the wedge?
11483And, please, what is_ Euclid_ to be doing all that time?
11483Are they not hungering for bones; yea, panting for sulphuretted hydrogen?"
11483At this the boy turned to his sister with an air of great relief, saying,"Do you hear_ that_, Mary?
11483But after all, what does it signify?
11483But alas, what are the means?
11483But need it be so?
11483But the_ perfect_ human form, free from these faults, is surely equally applicable to men, and fairies, and angels?
11483But what of that?
11483But when safe on terra firma His brother he did spy,"What_ did_ you do that for?"
11483But wherefore all this mustering?
11483But why fear a"thick end"at all?
11483But why should I trouble you with foolish reminiscences of_ mine_ that_ can not_ interest you?
11483CHAPTER VI( 1883- 1887)"The Profits of Authorship"--"Rhyme?
11483Could you live happy with such a name?
11483Did you ever hear of any one being so tired as_ that?_..._ November_ 7, 1882.
11483Did you ever see the Rhinoceros, and the Hippopotamus, at the Zoölogical Gardens, trying to dance a minuet together?
11483Do n''t you think so?"
11483Do they let you say"awfully"?
11483Do they still go up and down Finborough Road, and teach the cats to be kind to mice?
11483Do we blame the wanton schoolboy, with a pebble in his hand, all powerless to resist the alluring vastness of a barndoor?
11483Do you know, ever since that night they first came, they have_ never left me?_ Is n''t it kind of them?
11483Do you know, ever since that night they first came, they have_ never left me?_ Is n''t it kind of them?
11483Do you think that arises from their having"position,"which they feel might be compromised by such conduct?
11483Do you think that it''s in the lips?"
11483First, what sum shall we ask for the whole?
11483For what else is the assumption underlying this anxious urging- on of organisations for teaching?
11483Ham with your eggs?
11483Has Natural Science shown any such tendency, or given any reason to fear that such a concession would lead to further demands?
11483Have you also got"The Hunting of the Snark"?
11483Have you succeeded in drawing the three squares?"
11483How are Arthur, and Amy, and Emily?
11483How can I sit all alone on those wooden steps?
11483How can I walk on the beach alone?
11483How did you like it?
11483How do you pronounce your surname?
11483How far from a point is the"next"point?
11483How long can you wait for me to get some?"
11483How many can he force B to use?
11483How many did he make them out to be?
11483How many instances of this kind would you demand to prove that he did come to an untimely end?
11483How may we see in them all that is to be seen in them by the finest senses?
11483How would you draw King Arthur when he first met Guinevere?
11483How would you receive him?
11483I could not help saying to the child next me--"That was like the Whiting, was n''t it?"
11483I do n''t believe he ever saw you, and you''re not a bad one, are you?
11483I hope your little daughter, of whose arrival Mrs. Eschwege told me in December, 1893, has been behaving well?
11483I mean, what''s the good of little girls, when they send such heavy letters?"
11483I pluck in remorse My hands from my pockets and wring''em: Oh, why did not I, dear, as a matter of course, Ere I purchas''d thee purchase a gingham?
11483I said,"Do you remember when we all met at Sandown?"
11483I sometimes wish I was back on the shore at Sandown; do n''t you?
11483I thought of railway travelling, and ventured to ask how he got from London to Oxford?
11483I trust it reached you safely?
11483I will drink your health, if only I can remember, and if you do n''t mind-- but perhaps you object?
11483I wonder if you saw him?
11483I wonder if you will ever get as far as Jersey?
11483I''m to divide the kisses myself, am I?
11483If it is less, the next question is,_ How much less?_ These are serious questions, and you must be as serious as a judge in answering them.
11483If not, how_ are_ we to meet?
11483If so, may I call?
11483If you can do"Doublets,"with how many links do you turn KATH into LEEN?
11483If you were to ask yourself,"What test should I use in distinguishing what_ has_, from what has_ not_, personality?"
11483Invented, in(?
11483Is it a German name?
11483Is it not as high a form of education as any other?
11483Is it possible that one so gentle in manner, so full of noble sentiments, can be hardhearted?
11483Is it possible that that bank director, with his broad honest face, can be meditating a fraud?
11483Is n''t it bewildering?
11483Is she sorry, or disappointed?
11483Is this latter usually possible?
11483London(?)
11483May I trust that you will give your immediate attention to this most important subject?
11483May we, then, regard the practice of vivisection as a legitimate fruit, or as an abnormal development, of this higher moral character?
11483My Dear Stuart,--(Rather a large note- sheet, is n''t it?
11483My dear Ada,--(Isn''t that your short name?
11483My dear Gaynor,--So you would like to know the answer to that riddle?
11483My only excuse is, that I know no other; and how_ am_ I to guess what the full name is?
11483On August 31st he wrote, in a letter to a friend, Miss Mary Brown:"And now what am I to tell you about myself?
11483Or have the years( untouched by charms), With joy and sorrow laden, Rolled by, and brought unto thy arms A dainty little maiden?
11483Perhaps that is what you mean-- that the Artist can imagine, and design, more perfect forms than we ever find in life?
11483Replete with thee, e''en hideous night grows fair: Then what would sweet morn be, if thou wert there?
11483Secondly, how shall we apportion that sum between the two kinds of wine?
11483Shall I put"Rachel Manners"in the book?
11483Shall we blame him?
11483Some higher and more glorious state?
11483Some might say,"Why not write_ at once?
11483Suppose that the monkey begins to climb the rope, what will be the result?
11483That flecks the green meadow with sunshine and shadow, Till the little lambs leap with delight?
11483That my wine merchant, so outspoken, so confiding, can be supplying me with an adulterated article?
11483That the chairman of that meeting of shareholders, whose every tone has the ring of truth in it, can hold in his hand a"cooked"schedule of accounts?
11483That the schoolmaster, to whom I have entrusted my little boy, can starve or neglect him?
11483The O''Rixes, I suppose?
11483The next question is,_ How far is it from Winckfield to Rotherwick?_ Now do not deceive me, you wretched child!
11483Then he looked a good deal graver, and said,"Have you been walking much on your chin lately?"
11483Then it was time for us to go to the train, and who do you think came to the station to see us off?
11483Thomson, who was illustrating his"Three Sunsets":-- Would you kindly do_ no_ sketches, or photos, for_ me_, on a Sunday?
11483To which I as frankly smiled, and said,"How did you know me so soon?"
11483Was n''t it curious?
11483Was n''t it sad?
11483Well, I hope you will soon see your beloved Pa come back-- for consider, should you be quite content with only Jack?
11483Were you frightened?
11483What do I mean by"them"?
11483What else am I good for?
11483What was his name?"
11483What?
11483When a little girl is hoping to take a plum off a dish, and finds that she ca n''t have that one, because it''s bad or unripe, what does she do?
11483Wherefore this vast array?
11483Which way along a line are"preceding"points to be found?
11483Who can doubt that he was fully prepared for a change however sudden-- for the one clear call which took him away from us?
11483Who do I mean by"them"?
11483Who would go into trade if there were no gain in it?
11483Why is a pig that has lost its tail like a little girl on the sea- shore?
11483Why should our ears be shocked by such words merely because they are Shakespeare''s?
11483With a very pitiful look she turned to him and said,"Do n''t they give them any towels?"
11483Yes,"time is fleet,"and we have gained Years more than twice eleven; Alice, dear child, hast thou remained"Exactually"seven?
11483Yet what can one poor voice avail Against three tongues together?
11483You see, if I were to sit by you at breakfast, and to drink your tea, you would n''t like_ that_, would you?

47424Was there ever a more wonderful phenomenon?
47424What child is there, that, coming to a play, and seeing Thebes written in great letters upon an old door, doth believe that it is Thebes?
47424Where did he get his material?
47424Who shall, say Heminges and Condell lied?
47424Why two days? 47424 ( But if Shakespeare put them in tocatch the ear of the groundlings,"who took{ 309}them out again for the folio of 1623?
47424* As to Miss Bacon''s question,"What did William Shakespeare do with Bacon''s manuscripts?"
47424* Besides, if he had revised them for the glory of his own name, why did he not cause them to be printed?
47424* See"Was Shakespeare ever a Soldier?"
47424* as well as,"Did Lord Bacon write William Shakespeare''s work?"
47424*"Could rare Ben Jonson, who is worthy of our love and respect, have lied?"

47424--and they point to the Chandos portrait--"is not that the head of a genius?"
47424Actors, fellows of W. S. Did they suspect imposition?
47424Again, Sharpham, in his"Fleire,"printed in 1607, has this piece of dialogue:"_ Kni_.--And how lives he with''am?
47424And are et ceteras nothing?
47424And did Hamlet''s"pretended madness"cause"much mirth"to the age, or only to{ 028}Samuel Johnson?
47424And does the mere name of William Shakespeare make that, which is otherwise expedient, infamous?
47424And see"Was Shakespeare a Lawyer?"
47424And shall we require less or more proof, in proportion as the fact to be proved is nearer or more remote?
47424And to fit it, Antigonus, the first speaker, says to the mariner:"Art thou perfect, then?
47424And was agriculture taught at this Stratford school, and politics and the art of war?1 And was there any thing that William Shakespeare did not know?
47424And was there a further change made also to suit Mr. Burbadge, the leading tragedian of the time?
47424And were the modern languages also taught by this myriad- minded Jenkins?
47424And yet are men to believe that the writer of these pages left no impress on the history of his age and no item in the chronicle of his time?
47424And, when we wit{012}ness it, the question is: Do we enjoy it-- or does it bore us?
47424Born versed in all knowledge?
47424But as the world advanced and culture increased, why did not the question arise before?
47424But did William Shakespeare ever try his hand at verse- making?
47424But did none of William Shakespeare''s contemporaries suspect the harmless deception?
47424But how{ 080}about Edmund Spenser?
47424But if, diverging from the scanty records, we go to the testimony of contemporaries, what do we find there?
47424But were these plays, so printed_ outside_, the same plays as those acted_ inside_ the theater?
47424But where did these printers procure the"copy"from which to set up the plays they printed?
47424But who can tell of more than he knows?
47424But why need Dr. Harvey have resorted to vivisection to make his"discovery"?
47424But why should these great minds have chosen to put their philosophy into enigmas and ciphers?
47424But, Spanish, Italian, Greek and Latin aside, was English taught at Stratford school?
47424But, if there was but one author for these two contemporary works, why not William Shakespeare as well as Francis Bacon?
47424Can we imagine a reason why the same process should have been improbable in the days of Elizabeth and James?
47424Could we imagine it as the record of a Milton?
47424Could_ he_ be guilty of a lie?"
47424Detain them, and what departs?
47424Did Shakespeare practice a deceit upon his{ 250}noble and generous patron?
47424Did William Shakespeare own a library?
47424Did he forget his caste?
47424Did the great fire of London affect his chronicle and his labors?
47424Didst thou never hear that?
47424Does it"draw?"
47424Does our thrifty Shakespeare forget that he has written them?
47424Except that Mr. Spedding, in the"Gentleman''s Magazine"for February, 1852, printed a paper"Who wrote{ 184}Shakespeare''s Henry VIII?"
47424For example, if it is asked, Why reject the story of King James''s autograph letter, and retain the story of the trespass on Sir Thomas Lucy''s deer?
47424For, it can not be too incessantly reiterated, the question is not,"Was Shakespeare a poet?"
47424Had the busy manager been studying them as well?
47424Had the busy{ 298}manager followed or preceded the philosopher''s footsteps, step by step, up through them all?
47424Having lost"our Shakespeare"both to- day and forever, it will doubtless remain-- as it is-- the question,"Who wrote the Shakespearean dramas?"
47424How does he dispose of them?
47424How must it be fed?
47424How old, then, was Hamlet when Yorick died?
47424How otherwise are they to be accounted for?
47424Humor?
47424If I remain, who goes?"
47424If he was not, to whose interest was it to steal the mask from the family who cared enough about the dead man''s memory to go to the expense of it?
47424If this transcendent literature had come down to us without the name, would it have been sacrilege to search for its paternity?
47424In fact, is it not William Shakespeare the editor, and not the author, to whom our veneration and gratitude is due?
47424Is it a misprint?
47424Is there any more evidence to be examined?
47424Is this compatible with a genius thus culminating, on any other supposition than the death of the poet and the survival of the employer?"
47424Left in possession of the secret of the Baconian authorship, how could such a one as Matthew let the secret die with him?
47424Manager Shakespeare discharging the same duties as Mr. Wal- lack, Mr. Daly, or Mr. Boucicault?
47424Mr. William Henry Smith, of London, in September, 1856, appeared with his"Was Lord Bacon the Author of Shakespeare''s Plays?
47424Must Shakespeare have been a physician?
47424Must Shakespeare have been at the bar?
47424Must the man that wrote the dramas have visited Italy?

47424Not one of them has paused to ask the Scriptural question,"How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?"
47424Opinion of English of plays, 218. Who wrote Shakespeare?
47424Or, how about Chaucer?
47424Query: How did Sir Thomas know that the young man resembled Shakespeare?).
47424Shakespearean question, not what, but who?
47424Take the Shakespearean pages away from English literature, and what remains?
47424The Baconians would probably ask:"Did Bacon, after Shakespeare was dead?"
47424The awakening ages will put you on the stand, and you will not leave it until you answer the question, what did you do with them?"
47424The problem she proposed to herself was not,"Did Bacon and others write the plays?"
47424The time for the question,"Who wrote them?"
47424This is his own business, and who has any thing to say?
47424Thy rheum, Cob?
47424Various translations of, 279. Who was he?
47424Was all this money made by writing plays for the Globe, or by working on Bacon''s Novum Organum, or by other literary labor?
47424Was he a Roman Catholic?
47424Was he a lawyer?
47424Was he admitted to noble companionship?
47424Was his family name"Shakespeare,"and was he christened"William"?
47424Was it added to suit Burbadge?
47424Was it found that the bard had, of all his worldly goods, left the wife of his bosom no recognition save the devise of a ramshackle old bedstead?
47424Was there any- thing he did not know?
47424Were medicine and{ 215}surgery taught there?
47424Were the question before us,"Was the author of these works a poet, statesman, philosopher, lawyer?"
47424Were the theory and practice of the common law taught there?
47424Were these the ones?
47424Were they not of as much value, to say the least, as a damaged bedstead?
47424Were they not, as a matter of fact, not only invaluable, but the actual source of his wealth?
47424Were{ 258}they ever performed at his theater?
47424What are the general indications of death from violence?
47424What becomes of his plays?
47424What can remain with the audience to carry home with them?
47424What did he do with them?
47424What else could it have been that"the players"( according to Ben Jonson) saw?
47424What indeed, but"the true original copies"of these plays which were in William Shakespeare''s handwriting?
47424What is that humor?
47424What papers?
47424What says my Æsculapius?
47424What sort of testimony is this as to a fact?
47424What was to be the employment of Ariel during two days?
47424What was to hinder William Shakespeare from reading, appreciating, and purchasing these dramas, and thereafter''keeping his poet,''like Mrs. Packwood?
47424When we are about to visit a theater in these days, what we ask and concern ourselves with is: Is the play entertaining?
47424Where did he find his leisure?
47424Where did he get his material?
47424Where did they come from?
47424Where is the scholar who glories not in his scholarship?
47424Which is right?
47424Which of these two portraits is nearest to the life?
47424Who are these who find this book, and make this man to fit it?
47424Who is it-- his reason and judgment once enlisted-- who believes this thing?
47424Who wrote these plays?
47424Who wrote those, and why?
47424Why not ask the question,"Did William Shakespeare write Lord Bacon''s works?"
47424Why- should he call attention to the fact, publish it to the rabble, or record it on his stage whenever he found opportunity?
47424Will we recommend our friends to come that they may be entertained, too, and that we may discuss it with them?
47424William Shakespeare may have remembered this when he wrote:=````"Wherefore stand you on nice points?"
47424[ Illustration: 9135] UT what is the summing up on the other side?

15718Why is it, then, that the people make such a sorry exhibition of themselves when they attempt to sing the patriotic songs of our country?
15718Why not a little farm?
15718Why not in my own department?
15718Why not?
15718Why should I pay back the money?
15718Why?
15718Why?
15718Why?
15718Will you help me to get a job?"
15718Will you mind if I eat supper here?"
15718Will you?"
15718With what other flower can you do that?
15718Would You Rather Work For a Man or For a Machine?
15718Would n''t you rather they worked her nine hours a day instead o''ten-- such a soft little kid with such a lot o''growin''to do?
15718Would the beginning attract the attention and hold the interest of the average reader?
15718Would you rather not have a good interested worker for eight hours a day than none at all?
15718You never heard of him?
15718You never step on your own toe, do you, or hit yourself in the face-- if you can help it?
15718and what do you get out of it?
15718and,"What do I expect to accomplish?"
15718and,"Will they furnish food for thought?"
15718¶"How old are you?"
33103A child indeed? 33103 Alison?"
33103And did he?
33103And so,asked Ruth,"you mean to write another book?"
33103And so,said Mrs. Hallam, trying not to smile,"you want to marry Mr. Brett because he made you feel so silly when you talked to him?"
33103And thank God you''re alone?
33103And when is it to be?
33103And yet,swiftly interrupted Helena in triumph,"you ask me to give up mine?"
33103And you wo n''t ever long to-- well, to be Zoë again?
33103Anyhow let me? 33103 Anyhow,"he answered sulkily, acknowledging defeat in that one word,"you must see_ she_ is in the wrong?
33103Are n''t you happy, have n''t you been happy here?
33103Are you blaming me, now?
33103Are you disappointed?
33103Are you quite sure you''re not, Hugh?
33103Are you too among the authors?
33103Ask him?
33103Before lunch?
33103Better ones?
33103But why on earth not?
33103But wo n''t the critics hate that?
33103But would n''t you mind?
33103But you do n''t think,she said,"they really can ever find out who the writer was?
33103But, Hubert,she said finally,"why did she do that?
33103But----? 33103 But----?"
33103Ca n''t afford it, Hugh?
33103Ca n''t understand?
33103Curious? 33103 Did he what, dear?"
33103Dining out?
33103Do n''t you like it?
33103Do n''t you like them?
33103Do you mean I have kept you back?
33103Do you really think the husband stands out as such a brute as all that?
33103Does n''t it occur to you,she asked,"that it''s not very pleasant for me, just now, to be always left alone?
33103For_ me_?
33103Forbid? 33103 Found one?"
33103Got your camera, my dear?
33103Have you been to the Institute? 33103 Have you_ got_ the book?"
33103Helena,he said, storming in,"why did you pretend you were n''t going to the show to- night?"
33103How dare they call me insincere? 33103 How headlines?"
33103How often do you have these dinners?
33103How sort of?
33103How?
33103Hubert? 33103 Hugh,"she said presently,"are n''t I to know who it is?"
33103Hugh,she said, ludicrously horror- struck,"it''s not another pot- boiler?"
33103I am forgiven then?
33103I hope not a bad one?
33103I only know I lent it you and not to him; do you think I want everybody reading all my diaries?
33103I suppose as your husband I''ve the right to read it?
33103I suppose we ca n''t possibly suppress the book?
33103I thought you despised politics and everything like that?
33103If you''re quite, quite sure?
33103Is Mrs. Brett at home?
33103Is he still sick?
33103Is n''t it awful?
33103Is n''t it?
33103Is that likely?
33103Is that very kind, dear?
33103It would n''t really bring much money, would it?
33103Jealous?
33103Just like him, is n''t it?
33103Leave him when I''m fond of him?
33103Leave him?
33103Leave him?
33103Lily,she asked, trying to compromise between an obvious whisper and a voice too audible,"were there any press- cuttings this morning?"
33103Marriage? 33103 May I?"
33103Me?
33103Mind?
33103Mr. Brett, did you say, sir?
33103Must it be different?
33103Must n''t?
33103My dear Zoë( he felt bound to soothe her and it was so thrilling to say),"how can they possibly?
33103My dear fellow,he said, patting him again upon the back in a most soothing way,"what do you imagine?
33103My dear girl,he said,"is that quite logical?"
33103My dear,he said coldly,"I know all about that, but do you think you need interrupt my argument to tell me?
33103No, but honestly,she said,"why are things worse than in the old days?
33103No, why should he be? 33103 No,"she was bound to answer, and when he asked,"Fiction?"
33103Not give me away again?
33103Odd of her, this thirst for culture, is n''t it?
33103Oh Hugh,she cried, forgetting all their differences,"do you mean you are really thinking----?
33103Oh Hugh,she said( she never could quite manage"Hubert"),"I_ am_ so sorry, but what do you think?"
33103Oh, how dare you?
33103Oh, is n''t it awful?
33103Oh, it''s you, Alison,he said, not holding out his hand; and then with an obvious sneer,"As busy as ever?"
33103Perhaps it will just make the book sell? 33103 Perhaps there are some better ones?"
33103Proud?
33103Really, Helena,he said,"you do n''t mean you''ve broken my whole morning''s work just to tell me you''ve lost some silly trinket?
33103Really?
33103Say?
33103Say?
33103Shall_ I_ be Zoë''s husband?
33103Should I invite you, otherwise? 33103 So this is it?"
33103Stay here?
33103Suppress it on the strength of the first notice? 33103 Surely that''s not really short for Hubert?
33103Surely there''s some other way? 33103 Tell me,"he asked almost in a whisper,"is he very sick?"
33103Tell me?
33103That''s likely, is n''t it? 33103 That_ is n''t_ the title?"
33103The last one is sometimes the best, is n''t it?
33103Then are they really pilots?
33103Then why do people write or read them?
33103This, I suppose?
33103Well, and how do you like it? 33103 Well, how many authors do you think there are?"
33103Well, was n''t that artistic?
33103Well, what about men then?
33103Well, what news have_ you_ got?
33103Well, what_ can_ I do then?
33103Well, who would n''t be? 33103 Well, will you let me read it?"
33103Well,he asked,"and how is the new book going?"
33103Well,said Helena, giving him his tea,"you know you said I ought to follow up the other with a second book and I said no?
33103Well,she said, leaping up and forcing herself, like a trained wife, to be cheery,"what success to- day?"
33103Well,she said,"if you must really go so early?"
33103What am I to do,she said,"all these lonely afternoons?"
33103What are you asking me to do then?
33103What did he say then?
33103What did n''t he say? 33103 What do most wives do,"he asked,"whose husbands are away?
33103What do you expect me to do, otherwise? 33103 What do you mean, Helena?"
33103What do you mean?
33103What do_ I_ mean?
33103What does your brother review for?
33103What exactly do you mean by that?
33103What have they said now, dear?
33103What have you got against him then?
33103What is it, Hubert?
33103What is it, Hugh?
33103What is it, dear?
33103What is it, then?
33103What is it? 33103 What is it?
33103What is it?
33103What is it?
33103What on earth makes you ask that? 33103 What should I call myself?"
33103What sort?
33103What time about?
33103What whole idea?
33103What will you say?
33103What''s the use?
33103What, good news, Hugh dear?
33103What, married you?
33103What, something worse than you need?
33103What? 33103 What?
33103What?
33103What_ do_ you mean, Hugh?
33103When will it appear?
33103Where did you get these most extraordinary notions? 33103 Where will the newspapers ever stop?"
33103Who else would it be, you stupid boy? 33103 Who is it then?"
33103Who is it?
33103Who wants his damned opinion?
33103Who what is?
33103Why do you call him Hugh?
33103Why not dine with me one night to show there''s no ill- will? 33103 Why what''s brought you back?"
33103Why, did he become an author?
33103Why, do I cost so much? 33103 Why, how old is he?"
33103Why, my dear fellow? 33103 Why, what is it?"
33103Why, what?
33103Why,she demanded passionately,"should everything in the house hinge round_ his_ career?
33103Wo n''t Hugh be convulsed?
33103Yes?
33103You kept them, I hope?
33103You know that, Zoë, do n''t you? 33103 You know then?"
33103You mean it''s just my nature, and not you? 33103 You surely do n''t imagine,"he said,"writers really have to wait for times and seasons and the proper mood?
33103You''re sure it is the twenty- ninth of this month?
33103You''ve what, dear?
33103You_ did n''t_ write it? 33103 _ Are_ those literary names?
33103_ Is_ it?
33103_ What_ do they say?
33103_ Why_ ought I to marry?
33103( she cried impatiently):"Must I put it in words?
33103... How could men be so curious?
33103A little dinner somewhere gay, then the Empire or a supper-- well, no details!--but what of something like that?
33103An opus?
33103And every one agreed that_ Was it Worth While?_ was bad of its sort.
33103And its constant sequel: Why?
33103And was she to sacrifice her work to satisfy the petty vanity of such a man?
33103And when the notice says there ca n''t be any doubt about its popularity?
33103And who shall blame her if she was a little immature?
33103Another review?"
33103Are we honestly hard up?"
33103Besides,"critic"--did he mean professional?
33103Besides-- did she feel dimly, ever so little even, that she was somehow getting even with him?
33103Betray Helena, dear little girl?
33103Brett?"
33103Brett?"
33103Brett?"
33103But I''m not sure we want to have him calling?"
33103But do you think it right,"and now her voice grew very feeble, very plaintive,"after I''ve done all I have for you, not to think of me at all?"
33103But for the rest, she had her little cottage on the Norfolk coast and he his little home; so why should either trouble with the other?
33103But maybe Mr. Alison had not got many friends as yet or was n''t as nice to them all?
33103But probably brides always felt like that?
33103But this life of a housekeeper-- how could she endure it after what had been?
33103But what''s all that?
33103But who did?
33103CHAPTER XIV WAS IT WORTH WHILE?
33103Ca n''t we just go on as we have been doing?
33103Constant companion and all that stuff, indeed?
33103Did other wives spend awful hours like this or was it just that she was silly?
33103Did she try, or was she really meaning to be kind?
33103Did she want to marry Hubert Brett?
33103Did this explain his harshness?
33103Do I cost more than Ruth?"
33103Do n''t you know anybody?--really know, I mean-- old friends, who are n''t too far away?"
33103Do n''t you usually wait a bit?"
33103Do these terrible things really happen?"
33103Do you imagine I expect you to remain a bachelor your whole life long, just to look after me?
33103Do you imagine nothing''s good unless it''s written with a lobelia in front of you and all that sort of thing?
33103Do you know what is wrong with me?"
33103Do you really love Hubert?
33103Do you really want to marry him?"
33103Do you think I can live like that?
33103Do you think I do n''t know how true the whole book was?"
33103Do you think_ I_ do n''t know what I''ve been to you?
33103Face Mrs. Boyd exultant?
33103For, after all, he asks, what really wicked man would ever trouble to live out at a tube''s end?
33103From somewhere( who can say whence, since some things are inborn in Man?)
33103Had he been impatient?
33103Had he sometimes wronged her?
33103Had n''t he just told her not to interrupt?
33103Had she forgotten about her MS.?
33103Had she played fair?
33103Have you read his new novel?
33103He found, himself, his work was getting stale.... And then the help that she---- But who?
33103He had been very short with her pleasantry, and now was he doubting about Harold?
33103He paused and then;"_ Was It Worth While?_""Oh, Hugh,"she could not help exclaiming.
33103He skimmed a page and chuckled Fiction?
33103He stood in silence until Lily''s heavy steps had died away and then, in a stage whisper:"Is Hubert safely out of hearing?"
33103He surely was n''t serious now?
33103He wanted somebody to help, encourage; could she be his rival?
33103He was in the middle of a paragraph, sometimes: and what did she do after dinner, anyhow?
33103He was n''t serious?
33103He''s difficult, I know, when you''re with him, but when you get away-- isn''t he a dear?"
33103Helena loathed herself for not destroying this as well; but she had sold her happiness, so why not take the price?
33103How can you forbid?
33103How could a man like that endure to be just Helena Brett''s husband?
33103How could he possibly know, when he had never seen it?
33103How could it make any difference at what hour she dined?...
33103How could it matter?
33103How could she explain?
33103How could you?
33103How did other men get on?
33103How do you expect a man to write when he''s just had a row that''s brought his soul red- hot into his throat?
33103How do you think he could ever endure that, he who-- I tell you-- is nothing but a child?
33103How does it strike you?"
33103I am, however, puzzled as to how he accounts for his own admirable pamphlets?"
33103I do n''t suppose you realise that, do you?
33103I do n''t think you keep him in at_ all_ good order; does she, Kenneth?"
33103I knew that I had bullied Ruth, sacrificed her life to mine, and I vowed when I married you-- but what''s the use?
33103I meant, is he jealous?"
33103I shall find work to do or something; and anyhow, what is my life by the side of your career?"
33103I still do n''t see why it''s not cricket?"
33103I suppose essays never sell, though, and plays are quite impossible?"
33103I want them when they go to the seaside library and pay their twopences to notice_ Was It Worth While?_ in big letters on a purple ground.
33103I''d get annoyed whichever way it was?
33103I''m just a selfish sort of cross- grained swine?"
33103I''m the only person in the world who knows and I suppose you can trust_ me_?"
33103If only he would even be amusing...."Have you seen my snap- shot album?"
33103If she refused it, what would be the end?
33103If so-- but why make plans until things happened?
33103In bold print it ran thus:"WHO?
33103In_ Was It Worth While?_ he seems to have thought, for a change, of almost nothing else.
33103Is he ill?
33103Is it because I am a woman?
33103Is it good?"
33103Is your mother dead?"
33103It had a silly black cat in silhouette upon it and she_ had_ thought he would come at last...."Why Klub with a K?"
33103It interested her: why should it not interest others?
33103It tried to be something it was not, and what can be more shocking?
33103It would only be one evening alone, one lecture missed;--and who was Mrs. Boyd?
33103It''s jolly, is n''t it?"
33103It''s no use having scenes, is it?"
33103It''s no use killing love in this world, is it?
33103It''s pretty damnable, that, is n''t it?
33103Monday?"
33103No husband again?
33103No more dignity for me: you want to make them think, to make them wonder"Why?"
33103Not Hubert back?
33103Not for a million pounds would she have told him it was Freedom...."Tell me, Hugh,"she added quickly,"what has happened?
33103Now just be good instead and say that we may be at any rate engaged?
33103Of course it would be a big change, she supposed?
33103Of what?"
33103Oh, I''m so sorry,"she said, noticing his look--"but you do understand, do n''t you?"
33103Oh, do n''t you see?"
33103Oh, what would happen now?
33103Or even Whistler?"
33103Or would a cook- housekeeper be worse?
33103Perhaps heroic centuries of motherhood have taught her to endure her own pain with a smile, where she can scarce bear to conceal another''s folly?
33103Perhaps you mean, though, you do n''t want me?"
33103Possibly he had written and left it in the hall?
33103Probably his medical work-- it was not nice, quite, to think of it like that-- made him a restful person to consult?
33103Proud, indeed?
33103Ruth was a nuisance, frankly; she jarred upon him constantly: their life was one long quarrel nowadays; but-- how would solitude affect his work?
33103Shall I tell you_ my_ idea of bliss?"
33103She could not bring herself to be amused and he went on more moodily:"Do you imagine any woman wants novels with titles that are dignified?
33103She did not answer for a few moments: then she said very gently but with a new firmness;"Hugh dear, is it really necessary to do all this?
33103She had been so proud of them, until_ Was It Worth While?_ appeared; and now it seemed that all the others had belonged to a class of no merit, too.
33103She had not read a word of his until she was engaged: and how could she judge after that, if she had been the best of critics?
33103She knew she always had despised him, now-- but he had been so kind.... Why had she trusted a weak man like him?
33103She paused for a moment, and then without enthusiasm, almost sulkily;"What did you do for him?"
33103She surely could n''t mind?
33103She was almost too ignorant, of course-- knew nothing about life-- but her naïve remarks amused him: so what did it matter?
33103So long as we have money, what does it matter everybody knowing you think me a selfish brute or that----?"
33103So soon as he had got up, with his horribly polite;"Finished?"
33103So that was all, was it?
33103So there, Miss Zoë, what do you think of your agent now?"
33103Sometimes she supposed he must be very funny?
33103Sometimes, after one, he would ask in a thoughtful, puzzled way;"Why do n''t we ever go to a theatre, dear?"
33103Suppose she boxed his ears or anything like that?
33103Supposing she told Brett?...
33103Surely as it grew and there was still no prospect of detection, she would begin to think of all the money she was earning and enjoy the praise?
33103Surely he was sorry?
33103Surely we''re not so hard up as all that?
33103Surely you ca n''t believe I think of you like that?
33103Tear the whole book up?
33103That''s another way of making money, eh?"
33103The only thing was-- how did one begin?
33103Then I suppose you asked him in to give you his advice?"
33103Then he would surely not object, and be pleased; or if not-- well, why worry about that?
33103Then not waiting for any reply,"What do you know about marriage, my dear child?
33103Then, greatly daring, with a swift rush;"May I call you Zoë?"
33103Then, letting himself go;"Early works?
33103Then, once his wife-- well, who would tell her anyhow?
33103They probably knew all about it?
33103To- night, no doubt, had run him generously into double figures: but what might that sum not produce in interest?
33103WAS IT WORTH WHILE?
33103WHO?"
33103Was he growing selfish?...
33103Was he really jealous?
33103Was n''t she fond of her husband?
33103Was she really fond of him; trying to consult his wishes and not to irritate him?
33103Was she to admit her failure, to feign life- long admiration for his work, when she knew that with practice she could almost certainly do better?
33103Was there a tinge of the old- time suspicion?
33103Was this the man who had been almost throttled by a jealous husband?
33103We expected them to be all nasty, did n''t we?"
33103We''ve not been sloppy, have we?
33103What a slave of habit;--or was he trying to punish her by this suspense?...
33103What about Rossetti?
33103What about friend Blatchley?"
33103What am I to do?
33103What could a man so selfish know of happiness?
33103What could it be, possibly?
33103What did it matter really?
33103What do you forbid?
33103What do you think?
33103What had it been all about to- night?
33103What harm?
33103What has happened?
33103What must he think of her, when they took place each week and he had offered to come to another?
33103What then more natural than that she should value his ideas on Art?
33103What was it like?"
33103What was the use if she was just going to destroy it?
33103What were resolves?
33103What, not read it?
33103When I get selfish, when I begin forgetting_ your_ side of the thing, you''ll have to tell me; see?
33103When it''s been out two days?
33103When''s dinner?"
33103Where is it?"
33103Who could he marry, possibly?
33103Who could tell whether Ruth were not to be installed as her perpetual guardian, to watch over the wicked child?
33103Who in the world could guess?
33103Who is she?
33103Who were they both?"
33103Why am I not to write another book?
33103Why could n''t he be natural?
33103Why did you wire for me?
33103Why do you let him treat you like that?
33103Why had he said this second book would never sell?
33103Why had she ever written-- married-- been born-- anything?
33103Why had she lent him all that stuff about Virginia?
33103Why should she be sorry?
33103Why should she spare him?
33103Why, after all,_ did_ they live together?
33103Why, he was wondering, had he telephoned for Boyd to come along at all?
33103Would he be happier without her?
33103Would he never come?
33103Would n''t Helena be pleased to hear it all?
33103Would n''t it be awful to feel you had thrown away a chance that lots of women, she had gathered, never got?
33103Yet Blatchley, without any of that awkward"Where shall we dine?"
33103Yet was it wise to risk offending this man, a hard business devil, who already thought he was not playing cricket?
33103You and I collaborate?"
33103You could have, in the old days; I would n''t have done anything if you had asked me not; but now-- how can you forbid?"
33103You know how press- notices upset poor Hubert?
33103You must forgive my stupidity, please?"
33103You surely do n''t think three years have made you like_ that_?"
33103You surely see the difference?
33103You want to know who she is, do n''t you?
33103You were a simple, jolly girl when I first married you, and now-- writing this popular clap- trap!--you must see, Helena, it is n''t fair?"
33103You''ll go and talk to her quite firmly, wo n''t you?"
33103_ Why_ should she destroy her work?
33103and then read out with a naïve joy"_ Was It Worth While?_""Good,"exclaimed Helena, still doubtful.
33103as dear old''Bertie''Zoda used to say at the never- to- be- forgotten Pen- Pushers''Saturday nights( or were they Sunday mornings?
33103business common to bad hosts, had instantly said;"Shall we try the Ritz?"
33103he said, holding her by both arms,"what''s happened?
33103repeated Geoffrey Alison,"Well then, you''re free to come along like all the other ones?"
33103she said, good wife; and then,"What_ is_ the Kit Kat Club?"
33103they would reply:"M''yes?
42831''Love in a Cloud''?
42831''Love in a Cloud,''he repeated,"''Love in a Cloud''?
42831A dragooned wife?
42831A mistake?
42831A red carnation?
42831Ah, May,Miss Wentstile observed,"what do you settle down there for?
42831Alice,he said,"what are you darting off in that way for?"
42831An errand to me?
42831An_ affaire d''honneur_?
42831And if I do?
42831And speaking of engagements, is it proper to offer congratulations on yours?
42831And the other letters before it?
42831And you have never paid him?
42831And you never meant to marry me? 42831 And you think the Count would give up that letter for this?"
42831Anything better?
42831Anything new?
42831Anything to say?
42831Are n''t you engaged to May Calthorpe?
42831Are you one of the Baltimore Fairfields?
42831Are you really fond of Miss Calthorpe, Jack?
42831Are you running it down just for modesty?
42831Are you sure he meant it?
42831Are you sure?
42831As you are going that way, Richard,she said without preface of salutation,"do you mind taking my cup to the table?"
42831Ashamed-- Alice?
42831Ask me, Jack? 42831 Business?"
42831But did they believe it?
42831But for what you speak of Monaco here?
42831But if I ca n''t pay up, what else can I do?
42831But is it true?
42831But suppose,Dick urged again,"suppose she--""Suppose she what?"
42831But what are you going to do about it?
42831But what can I do?
42831But what is life for?
42831But what to- day?
42831But what weell be weetheen dat lettaire?
42831But what will she say to me?
42831But who can get it?
42831But who wrote it?
42831But why do you come to me?
42831But why in the world should I look worried?
42831But why should I give it to you? 42831 But why should n''t she write to me for them?"
42831But why was I not told of this?
42831But you did n''t really think he wrote my letters?
42831But you never suspected that I wrote the book?
42831But-- but,he stammered,"what am I to do?
42831But-- but,she stammered, apparently fairly out of breath with amazement,"how often do you write now?"
42831By the way, do you know who Christopher Calumus really is?
42831Ca n''t you get that letter away from him?
42831Carnation?
42831Challenge my husband?
42831Challenged me?
42831Coming here?
42831Count Shimbowski and Alice Endicott?
42831Count,the spinster asked, turning to that gentleman, who towered above her tall and lowering,"have you ever fought a duel?"
42831Damn it, Dick,he ejaculated, coming back with a face of anger,"what did you let her go off like that for?"
42831De oder?
42831Dear little woman,he said;"are you sure you have got entirely over being fond of me?"
42831Delivered it? 42831 Den you weell know who have wrote eet?"
42831Determined to believe the worst?
42831Did I show it so much?
42831Did Jack send you?
42831Did n''t Fido always bark at you, Louisa?
42831Did n''t she? 42831 Did n''t write it?"
42831Did n''t you see Dick and May?
42831Did n''t you?
42831Did you give it to her?
42831Did you read it?
42831Did you say that you had business with me?
42831Do I understand,he said,"that you expect me to go to Count Shimbowski and announce myself as May''s representative, and demand her letter?"
42831Do n''t I always take things seriously? 42831 Do n''t you know, old man, that I''ve sold my polo ponies, and taken a place in the bank?"
42831Do n''t you think a girl that leaves civilization, and goes to live in the wilderness just to follow a man, shows a lack of cleverness?
42831Do n''t you?
42831Do you de handwrite know?
42831Do you expect to recognize this unknown paragon?
42831Do you know him?
42831Do you mean it?
42831Do you mean that Miss Calthorpe wrote those letters?
42831Do you mean that for me?
42831Do you mean those two sentences to go together, Count?
42831Do you suppose other people noticed me?
42831Do you suppose the Count will tell?
42831Do you suppose,he answered,"that I should be willing to see a friend of mine throw herself away on that old roué?
42831Do you think I do n''t know you well enough to see when you have some especial purpose in mind?
42831Do you think it''s the square thing to marry a young girl like that, and tie her up for life when she does n''t know what she''s doing?
42831Do you think,he urged, with some heat,"that I do n''t see through the whole thing?
42831Do you weelleengly come wid us a leettle, for dat I say to you ver''particle?
42831Does Bradish know it?
42831Does Mrs. Langdon go with you?
42831Does everybody know?
42831Does he know who wrote to him?
42831Does our spring weather affect you unpleasantly?
42831Does she know?
42831Does that mean that you are out of it? 42831 Does that mean that you''ll be his second, Jack?"
42831Does this prove that she is n''t?
42831Doubtful characters?
42831Ees eet dat de amiable Mrs. Croydon she do have a deeferent husband leek a sailor mans een all de harbors?
42831Ees eet dat de wonderful Mees Wentsteele would marry wid me for all dat_ dot_?
42831Ees eet dat we weell marry wid me? 42831 Eet weel have been Paris_ certainement_, ees eet not?"
42831Eh?
42831Exchange eet?
42831For Heaven''s sake, mother,he said,"what are you after that you are going on so?
42831For giving her a husband? 42831 For what weell eet be exchange''?"
42831For what weell not een Amereeca fight? 42831 For which is she to be pitied the more?"
42831Given me up?
42831Good gracious, May, what is it now? 42831 Hard for her?
42831Has anything gone wrong?
42831Has he ever spoken of it?
42831Has she really told of it?
42831Has the Count challenged him? 42831 Have n''t I done enough for you to be able to get a civil answer out of you?"
42831Have n''t got it? 42831 Have you dared to ask a strange man to meet you at my house, May Calthorpe?"
42831Have you known a great many literary men?
42831Help me?
42831Her son?
42831Here I have told everybody that I should pass next summer at the Count''s ancestral castle in Hungary, and how can I if you wo n''t marry him?
42831How about flirting with Sibley Langdon?
42831How are you, Bradish?
42831How are you?
42831How could I pay him? 42831 How could you write to a man you do n''t know,"insisted Mrs. Harbinger,--"a man of whom you do n''t even know the name?
42831How d''y''do, Miss Calthorpe? 42831 How d''y''do?"
42831How dare you speak of that lovely book in that way?
42831How did dear Miss Wentstile like that?
42831How did you know that I needed to have a plank thrown to me?
42831How do you do, Count?
42831How do you feel to- day, Count?
42831How do you know that?
42831How do you know that?
42831How in the world could I help it?
42831How in the world, Jack, do you ever know what you owe?
42831How long has this nonsense been going on?
42831How many lumps?
42831How often do you write now?
42831How was it addressed?
42831How will you help it?
42831I beg your pardon, but may I speak with you a moment?
42831I ca n''t just let the thing go, can I?
42831I have been talking to her about--"Aunt Sarah,interposed Alice hurriedly,"may I give you some tea?"
42831I hope I do n''t intrude?
42831I must give them if she wishes it; but may I ask one question first? 42831 I suppose there''s no doubt he''s to marry Alice Endicott, is there?"
42831I suppose you think that''s absurd, do you? 42831 I thank you, Louisa,"she said gravely;"you meant well, but how dared you?"
42831I think it? 42831 I thought that to- day-- Louisa, for heaven''s sake, do you care for me?"
42831I was only going-- I was going to--"Then why in the world did n''t you?
42831I weell range my own self;--say you een Eengleesh''arrange my own self''?
42831I wonder if Ethel will have to milk?
42831If I tell you a secret,she said in a low tone,"can I trust you?"
42831If I tell you that she did n''t find it easy to write, will that be sufficient? 42831 If we are yours what is there left for me?"
42831If you cared for the credit of the family why did n''t you tell me about the Count sooner? 42831 If you do n''t believe in marriages without money, Mrs. Neligage,"asked Mrs. Wilson,"what do you think of Ethel Mott and Thayer Kent?"
42831If you wanted to tell me,Miss Wentstile went on,"why did n''t you tell me when he was not here?
42831If you were going to give your name to the book why did n''t you do it then?
42831Indeed? 42831 Insult you, my dear Louise?
42831Is Mr. Neligage in the house?
42831Is he so bad then?
42831Is it so bad as that?
42831Is it your general custom,drawled Jack, between puffs of his cigarette,"to give a Wild West show at every house you go into?"
42831Is n''t it best that we do n''t go into that?
42831Is n''t that reason enough?
42831Is n''t there anything better to talk about than kissing?
42831Is that an allusion?
42831Is that the latest? 42831 Is that true?"
42831Is this a comic opera?
42831It is really too early to go to the field,May said,"why do n''t we walk out to the new golf- holes first?
42831It was at-- Where was it, Count? 42831 Jack Neligage?
42831Jack, of course you did n''t write''Love in a Cloud''?
42831Jack,called Tom Harbinger from the other end of the table,"did n''t the Count say:''Stones of a feather gather no rolls''?"
42831Jack,he said under his breath,"do you believe Mrs. Harbinger wrote me those letters?"
42831Jack,she said pleadingly, changing her voice into earnestness,"wo n''t you marry May?
42831Jealous, old man?
42831Know what I owe? 42831 Let it pass?"
42831Look here, Tom,he said,"What are you driving at?
42831Loomps? 42831 Louisa,"he said with awkward abruptness,"what did you mean this afternoon?"
42831Louisa,she demanded,"do you know anything about this affair?"
42831Louisa,she demanded,"where did you know the Count?"
42831May I ask,he said at length, raising his glance to the Count''s face,"what you propose to do with the letter?"
42831May I come in?
42831Mean? 42831 Mean?
42831Miss Calthorpe? 42831 Miss Calthorpe?"
42831Miss Endicott? 42831 Miss Wentstile,"the hostess said,"do n''t you know Mr. Fairfield?
42831Money?
42831Mother,he said in a voice of new seriousness,"are you marrying him to get that money for me?"
42831Mr. Barnstable? 42831 Mrs. Neligage and Jack want it?"
42831My adventures?
42831My part of it?
42831No; but if I did not give it to her, how can I give it to you?
42831Now you have my hand, what are you going to do with it?
42831Now?
42831Of course now we have been engaged a week,he said,"I am at liberty to read that letter you wrote to Christopher Calumus?"
42831Of doing something?
42831Oh, I never thought he was the man; but who the deuce is it?
42831Oh, I say:''You be so freesh, Mees Wentsteele,''and she, she say:''Freesh, Count Shimbowski? 42831 Oh, Jack, you old goose, I''ve been fond of Harry Bradish for years, only I did n''t dare show it because--""Because what?"
42831Oh, did I call up that old unpleasantness?
42831Oh, did Mr. Harbinger like it?
42831Oh, did he?
42831Oh, do you think so?
42831Oh, do you think we could?
42831Oh, does he know too?
42831Oh, how did you know?
42831Oh, is it the Count really?
42831Oh, is that all?
42831Oh, it strikes you as uncommon nonsense, does it? 42831 Oh, my dear child,"she said dramatically,"how could you be so imprudent?"
42831Oh, my dear,returned Mrs. Neligage quickly,"do you suppose that if I made an alliance for Jack, he would be so undutiful as to object?"
42831Oh, what ees eet de weder een one land w''ere de peoples so heavenly keent ees?
42831Oh, you did? 42831 Pardon me, but is it too intrusive in me to ask if I may go home with you?"
42831Pardon me,Neligage asked with the utmost suavity,"but is it proper to ask if it was your temper that was incompatible?"
42831Paris? 42831 Pays so well?"
42831Read it, May? 42831 Really, Mrs. Croydon,"she suggested, smiling,"do n''t you think that is bringing Western brusqueness home to us in rather a startling way?
42831Ruined? 42831 Run it down?"
42831Say? 42831 She said-- Oh, Jack, what am I to do if she goes away and leaves me without a home?
42831Since she is so damned particular,said he,"do n''t you think you''d better let me have the other letter for this?
42831So I do, but you ca n''t help doing a fellow a good turn, can you, just because you do n''t happen to like him?
42831So much the worse for us both, is n''t it, Jack? 42831 So she have to marry, ees eet not?"
42831So you are sure I wo n''t give Alice anything if she marries Jack, are you?
42831Something particular to say to me, Count?
42831Stop talking about it? 42831 Surely you do n''t mean that you are going to fight?
42831Tell me, what are you doing in this country,--besides taking the town by storm, that is?
42831Tell me,he remarked, flinging his cigarette end into the grate and taking out his case again,"did you see the Kanes in Washington?"
42831Tell what''s in it, my boy? 42831 The Count and Miss Endicott?"
42831The Count?
42831The book, Miss Calthorpe?
42831Then I am probably right, Count, in thinking you would n''t care to have her read this letter?
42831Then it is only the book itself that you admire, and not the author?
42831Then it''s folly for a man to resent an insult to his wife, is it? 42831 Then she weell not to marry wid me?"
42831Then this whole thing is a ruse, is it? 42831 Then what did you pretend to be engaged to her for?"
42831Then who did?
42831Then why am I not to believe it?
42831Then why did Letty say she wrote it?
42831Then why did she say she did?
42831Then why not let the matter pass? 42831 Then why should n''t he-- whoever he might be-- break yours?"
42831Then you decline to let me have it, Count?
42831Then you do n''t expect him to ask you?
42831Then you do n''t think it is cynical?
42831Then you mean that I can not be more than a friend?
42831Then you will not give it to me?
42831Then you''re going to sell?
42831To a lady?
42831To say to you, my dear? 42831 To the author of''Love in a Cloud''?
42831Two favors?
42831Was he received?
42831Weell you for myself de condescension to have dat you weell be one friend to one_ affaire d''honneur_?
42831Well, I did n''t promise not to kiss you, did I?
42831Well, May,Jack said, smiling upon her as they drove over the Mill Dam,"how do you like being engaged?"
42831Well, were n''t you saying them then?
42831Well, what about her?
42831Well, what of it? 42831 Well,"observed Jack after a moment,"why the dickens do n''t you say something?
42831Well,she asked,"did your unknown author come?"
42831Well?
42831Well?
42831Well?
42831Well?
42831What about them? 42831 What am I going to do?"
42831What are these?
42831What are you laughing at?
42831What can a man mean when he begins to distrust his wife? 42831 What could you do on a salary like that?
42831What did Mrs. Harbinger mean by thanking you for arranging something with the Count? 42831 What did he do?"
42831What did she say?
42831What did you come to say?
42831What did you do with the letter?
42831What do I care for his beautiful letters? 42831 What do you expect me to say to that?"
42831What do you mean by that?
42831What do you mean by that?
42831What do you mean?
42831What do you mean?
42831What do you mean?
42831What do you say?
42831What do you suppose he was doing?
42831What do you want me to say?
42831What do you want to do?
42831What does she want?
42831What does the dago mean? 42831 What else can I do?
42831What has all this to do with Sibley Langdon?
42831What have I to be angry with myself about?
42831What have you been telling her?
42831What in the deuce do you mean?
42831What in the world are you driving at, mother? 42831 What in the world can have set them on?
42831What is it to you, Jack, if it were?
42831What is there for me to say more, Aunt Sarah?
42831What is this amazing story that you are engaged to Count Shimbowski?
42831What is worrying you?
42831What kind of a sign?
42831What line do you like best to cross by?
42831What right had you to put my wife in a book?
42831What right have you to ask me a question like that?
42831What sort of a concession do you want to make you hold your tongue?
42831What the deuce do you mean?
42831What the devil am I to do? 42831 What was I going to say?
42831What was that stuff you were talking about my being engaged?
42831What weell eet be?
42831What you say?
42831What? 42831 What?"
42831When did you write to him last?
42831When do you go into that beastly old bank?
42831When more one teeme eet ees de oder?
42831When?
42831Where are you going?
42831Where is Fido?
42831Who are they?
42831Who in the world was that horror that made the exhibition of himself?
42831Who is there here that could have written it?
42831Who should it be against? 42831 Why ca n''t you stop talking about our being engaged?"
42831Why did he give it to you?
42831Why did n''t you mean to tell me?
42831Why did n''t you tell me then?
42831Why do n''t you speak?
42831Why in the world, mother,he said,"must you come harping on that string again?
42831Why is it lucky?
42831Why is it necessarily disagreeable?
42831Why not believe that it was because I put so much value on your opinion?
42831Why not?
42831Why should I? 42831 Why should she want it?"
42831Why should you care?
42831Why, how can you say that?
42831Why, something, you know, to please--"Oh, to please your wife? 42831 Why, suppose she-- suppose she-- she liked somebody else?"
42831Why?
42831Will you call him, please?
42831Will you give it to me, please?
42831Wo n''t have what?
42831Wo n''t you sit down?
42831Would he? 42831 Would you have me read it for a pair of gloves?"
42831Yes, Jack,she said,"we have always been friends; but has any man, simply because he is a friend, a right to ask a girl a question like that?"
42831You are not in earnest?
42831You are not really going to leave the club?
42831You ca n''t be serious, Bradish?
42831You did n''t suppose I had an amanuensis, did you?
42831You did?
42831You do n''t mean that she showed you my letters?
42831You do n''t mean to marry her?
42831You do n''t think he despised me, and would n''t come?
42831You knew him in Europe, did n''t you?
42831You made an offer in my name?
42831You mean to tease me with--"Tease you, May? 42831 You remember perhaps that letter that I gave you from May?"
42831You''re all right, Barnstable,Bradish observed;"but what are we to do with the Count?"
42831You''re not in love with her?
42831You''ve always teased me, Louisa, from the days we were babies, and of course I''m an old fool; but-- Were you willing I should kiss your hand?
42831You?
42831Your husband?
42831Your wife?
42831And what should I do if anything happened to Jack?"
42831Are you Christopher Calumus?"
42831Are you resting from the strain of continual adulation?"
42831Bradish?"
42831But since you speak of it, what good would it do to write to her now?
42831But what are you mixed up in the Count''s transactions for?"
42831But what have you to say about my reading this letter?"
42831But what''s the row?"
42831But who is it has insulted you?"
42831But why do n''t you take the aunt instead of the niece?
42831By the way, do you happen to have with you that letter I gave you at Mrs. Harbinger''s yesterday?"
42831By the way, what do you think of my going there, and setting up as a lobbyist?
42831Can you let me have the money?"
42831Can you raise any money?"
42831Chauncy, why do n''t we buy a ranch?
42831Count Shimbowski dat lettaire he keep, weell eet not?"
42831Did they ask you for it?"
42831Did you know that the Count actually challenged him?"
42831Do n''t know him?"
42831Do n''t you know that now you have been brought out in society you are expected to make your market?"
42831Do n''t you remember how we talked about the book at Mrs. Harbinger''s tea?"
42831Do n''t you think so?"
42831Do you know where I can see him?"
42831Do you know who wrote that beastly book?"
42831Do you mean that that beastly foreign ape dared to challenge him for that?
42831Do you suppose I''m such a cad as really to propose to marry May when she''s fond of you and you''re fond of her?
42831Do you suppose, May, that there is anybody I know who has n''t told me a secret about the author?
42831Do you think your wife would mind much?"
42831Does n''t she send for them because she''s engaged?"
42831Does the idea of marrying Harry Bradish make you sentimental?"
42831Ees eet not so?
42831Ees she not good for me?"
42831Eet weell be a meellion francs, ees eet not?"
42831Fairfield?"
42831Harbinger?"
42831Has she been after the letter too?
42831Have n''t I been saving you as well as myself?
42831Have n''t I said that I do n''t even know who the author is?
42831Have n''t we always been good friends enough for me to speak to you in earnest without your treating me as if I was either impertinent or a fool?"
42831Have you ever played in amateur theatricals, May?"
42831Have you read''Love in a Cloud''?"
42831He merely held his pen suspended, and said coldly:--"Well?"
42831How can I take her?
42831How can anybody say that?
42831How could you do such a thing?"
42831How did you dare to write to any young girl like that?"
42831How did you know him?"
42831How in the world came you to write to him?"
42831How in the world could we miss it?
42831How is she to- day?"
42831How should they know about marriage in any case?
42831How would you feel if it were your wife?"
42831I ca n''t help my disposition, can I?"
42831I hope you do n''t mind, Alice?"
42831I said that I admired the novel, did n''t I?"
42831I write''Love in a Cloud''?"
42831If I ca n''t play polo what good is money?"
42831If he did write it, Mr. Barnstable, how in the world could he know anything about your affairs?
42831In love with me?
42831In the face of a fact like that what is the use of words?"
42831Is he really a fast man?"
42831Is n''t it your business to do what your clients want done?"
42831Is that what you mean?"
42831Is the lady Miss Endicott?"
42831Is there any danger that Mr. Fairfield may come in?"
42831Is there any one of them that you''d think had a right to come here to- night and question me about my engagement?"
42831Is there anybody else?"
42831Is this a transaction in real estate?"
42831Langdon?"
42831Loomps?
42831Mrs. Neligage, you ought to know-- is it true that Richard Fairfield got Jack to go and propose for him?"
42831Must I say it in words?
42831My dear young lady, eet ees not dat you can be jealous dat once I have known Madame Neleegaze?"
42831Neligage?"
42831Neligage?"
42831Neligage?"
42831Of course the Count did n''t write it either?"
42831Oh, Jack,"she went on, her manner suddenly changing to one of appeal, and the tears starting into her eyes,"why ca n''t you be a man?"
42831See here, are you coming the Othello dodge?"
42831She looked at him with contracting brows, and ignored his question as she demanded abruptly:--"What did you come to say to me?"
42831She regarded him shrewdly, then dropping her eyes, she asked:--"Was it better than the other one?"
42831That''s why you have a red carnation at your throat, is it?
42831The other considered a moment, and then said with his usual bluntness:--"I suppose it''s none of my business what you want of it?"
42831Then what did you get engaged to me for?"
42831Then with the air of a puppet pronouncing words by machinery he ejaculated:--"You wrote to the Count?"
42831There,"he concluded, looking at Harbinger and Neligage with a grin,"I think I did that right, did n''t I?"
42831Was that what you wanted to tell, Mr. Langdon?
42831Weell I not to have hees blood?"
42831Weell she truthfully ride de cow?"
42831What are you driving at?"
42831What did you come here for this morning?
42831What did you want to drag me into this mess for?
42831What do you mean?"
42831What do you young things know about love anyway, or how to recognize it?
42831What fun do I have as it is but quarreling with Miss Wentstile and snubbing Harry Bradish?
42831What have you been doing?"
42831What have you done with it?"
42831What have you to do with him?"
42831What is it?
42831What is she going to do about it I''d like to know?"
42831What kind of a story do you like?"
42831What language ees dat?"
42831What marriage is this?"
42831What of it?"
42831What time is it?"
42831What under the canopy do you mean, mother?
42831Where did you hear the word?
42831Where is Mr. Harbinger to defend his reputation?"
42831Who else should write letters in this house?"
42831Who''s had the impertinence to couple their names?"
42831Whom did you write to?"
42831Why ca n''t you understand?
42831Why do n''t you go there to find out who wrote it?"
42831Why do n''t you say it?
42831Why do n''t you say that I''m too old, and too ugly, and too ridiculous?
42831Why in the world should he pitch upon him?"
42831Why should she say anything?
42831Why, do you mean to tell me that you did n''t understand perfectly well that you had no business to write to a man that you do n''t know?
42831Will you believe me when I tell you something?
42831Will you kindly name a friend?
42831Would n''t I, though?
42831You ca n''t mean a duel?"
42831You do n''t mind if I smoke?"
42831You never really meant to bring a suit for libel?"
42831You will take tea?
42831You wo n''t break the engagement when you see May this afternoon, will you?
42831You wrote it to him, did n''t you?"
42831You''ve seen Laura Seaton, have n''t you?

8207How to_ prevent_ the fiend?
8207I am afeared that few die well, that die in battle; for how can they_ charitably_ dispose of anything_ when blood is their argument_?
8207I will die bravely, like a bridegroom: What?
8207I will make my very house reel to night:--A letter for me?

8207If you did wear a beard upon your chin, I''d shake it on this quarrel:_ What do you mean_?
8207If you have mistaken one of the Scipios for another, what is all the rest you have to say worth?

8207Informed them?
8207Is it a manuscript?
8207Is it the beast, or is it''the fiend?''
8207Is it the recent invention of goose- quills which he is celebrating here with so much lyrical pomp, in so many, many lyrics?
8207Is it, that that characteristic of Elizabeth''s time-- that same thing which Seneca complained of in Nero''s,--is it that_ that_ is not yet obsolete?
8207Is not this a man for particulars, then?
8207Is that the reason, this so magnificent part, this radical part of the new discovery of the Modern Ages, is still held''superfluous?''
8207Is the Poet so too?
8207Is there any cause in NATURE that makes these hard hearts?''
8207Is there any intimation as to the particular form of writing in which we are to find it?
8207Is there no offence in it?
8207Is there not a ballad, boy, of the King and the Beggar?
8207Is this done?

8207Is_ it not as this mouth should tear this hand For lifting food to it_?''
8207Is_ man_ no more than this?
8207It gives me an estate of seven years''health; in which time I will make a lip at the physician... Is he not wounded?
8207It is the Poet, who says elsewhere,''Can''st thou not minister to a_ mind_ diseased?
8207It was a brute part of him to kill so capital a calf there.--Be the players ready?

8207Marcius coming home?
8207Marcius is coming home: he has--_more cause to be_--PROUD.--Where is he wounded?

8207Must I give way and room to your rash choler?
8207Must I go show them my unbarbed sconce?
8207Must all determine here?
8207Must_ I stand_ and_ crouch Under your testy humour_?
8207Must_ I_ budge?
8207Must_ I_ observe_ you_?
8207Must_ these_ have voices that can yield them now, And straight disclaim their tongues?
8207My lord,--you played once in the university, you say?
8207No rescue?
8207No seconds?
8207No?
8207No?
8207Now, what is it that we have to find?
8207O Sir, you are not right: have you not known The worthiest men have done it?
8207O none, unless_ this_ miracle[ this_ miracle_] have might, that in_ black ink_--''Is this printer''s ink?
8207On whose side?
8207Or is it the ink of the prompter''s book?
8207Or what_ strong hand_ can hold his swift foot back?
8207Or, seeing it, of such_ childish friendliness To yield your voices?__ Bru_.
8207Or_ who_ his spoil of beauty can forbid?
8207Shall I be charged no further than this present?
8207Shall I be frighted_ when a madman stares_?''
8207Shall it be put to_ that_?
8207Shall the blessed''Son of England''prove a thief, and take purses?
8207Shall''s have a Play of_ this_?
8207Shall_ Rome_ stand under_ one man''s awe_?
8207Shall_ time''s best jewel_ from_ time''s chest_ lie hid?
8207Sir, I pray let me ha''t: I have wounds to show you, Which shall be yours in private.--Your good voice, Sir; What say you?
8207So that it be known in its real comprehension, in its true relations to the weal of the world, what matters it?
8207So young, and so untender?
8207Soft; who comes here?
8207Softly, in thine ear,--_ which is the_ JUSTICE, and which is THE THIEF?''
8207THEY SAY?
8207The matter?
8207The queen apprehending it gladly, asked,''How?''
8207The time when?
8207The trick of that voice I do well remember: Is''t not THE KING?
8207The_ service_ of the_ foot_, Being once_ gangren''d_, is not then respected_ For what before it was_?
8207These are murderers,--count them-- they are all murderers, wholesale murderers, perhaps,--but of what?
8207These new Georgics of the mind whose_ argument is here_,--where are they?
8207They know the corn Was not our RECOMPENSE; resting well assured_ They ne''er did service for it_?
8207Think upon_ me?
8207Think you so?
8207Think''st thou it honourable for a NOBLE MAN Still to remember wrongs?
8207Think''st thou it honourable for a noble man_ Still_ to remember wrongs?''
8207Thinkest thou the_ fiery fever will go out_ With_ titles blown from adulation_?
8207This is abhominable which he would call abominable; it insinuateth me of insanie;_ Ne intelligis, domine_?
8207This is the play in which one asks''Which is the princess?''
8207This new Virgil who might promise himself such glory,--such new glory in the singing of them,--where is he?
8207Thou hast seen a farmer''s_ dog_ bark at a_ beggar_?
8207Thou seest how this world goes?
8207Tis_ Caesar_ that you mean: Is it not, Cassius?
8207To what effect?
8207To whom came he?
8207Traitor!--How now?
8207True?
8207True?
8207Trust ye?
8207Under what captain serve you?
8207Videsne quis venit?__ Ho.
8207WHERE IS THIS VIPER, That would_ depopulate_ the city, and BE EVERY MAN HIMSELF?
8207Was the crown offered him thrice?
8207Was there any cause in nature for it?
8207We have yet many among us can gripe as hard as Cassibelan_: I do not say, I am one; but I have a hand.--Why tribute?
8207Well then_, I pray, YOUR PRICE O''THE CONSULSHIP?
8207Well, What then?
8207Well, what then?

8207What has he done to Rome, that''s worthy death?

8207What is it that is missing out of this philosophy?
8207What is it that is wanting then?

25971About Prothero?
25971About the child?
25971Afraid of what?
25971After all,she said,"I have n''t turned out so badly; even from Henry''s point of view, have I?"
25971Ah, Jinny,she said,"could_ you_ have borne to pay my price?"
25971Ah, it''s come to that, has it? 25971 Ah, why are you so good to me?"
25971Ah?
25971Am I not to come, too?
25971Am I so disagreeable that they couldn''t-- without that?
25971Am I?
25971And I am not to read any more proofs?
25971And I may continue to adore your tenderness?
25971And I suppose your uncle and aunt want you to marry him?
25971And I suppose,he said,"he bored you?"
25971And I-- wasn''t I born? 25971 And Mr. Tanqueray''s?
25971And did n''t you?
25971And do you like my gown and the way I do my hair?
25971And do you remember-- afterwards-- before he came-- how quiet I was and how contented? 25971 And do you suppose I''m going to let you go?
25971And do you suppose Owen was thinking of Nina''s genius when he married Laura instead of her?
25971And do you think you''ll bring it on before the tenth?
25971And does it? 25971 And fling her at it?"
25971And have n''t we always told the truth to each other?
25971And have n''t you got it?
25971And he,she said,"has still a chance if I fail you?"
25971And he,she said,"has still a chance if-- I fail you?"
25971And his address?
25971And how I''m not clever, and how it is n''t a bit as if I''d any head for studyin''and that?
25971And how about Nicky''s?
25971And how much work do you suppose I should get through?
25971And how you''d be if you was to marry some one who was a lady? 25971 And if I do n''t want,"she murmured,"to get out----?"
25971And if he dies, Rose? 25971 And if it comes to that, why should it?"
25971And if_ you_''re being hammered at to satisfy an instinct for perfection that you''re not aware of----?
25971And is it really,she said,"as bad as that?"
25971And it does n''t matter if a lady comes to tea?
25971And it means nothing now-- you do n''t like it-- my poor genius? 25971 And so you''re going to look after me, are you?"

25971And that reminds me, how''s Rose?
25971And that she''s never written a line since?
25971And that when you''re working like ten horses you''re in misery half the time?
25971And that''s a misfortune, is it?

25971And you believed him?
25971And you came,she said,"just for that?"
25971And you create,Brodrick said,"an atmosphere----""A what?"
25971And you do n''t mind-- now?
25971And you hold us, his friends, responsible for that?
25971And you think it does n''t hurt him?
25971And you wanted me to be happy?
25971And you''d like it?
25971And you''ll have me then?
25971And you''re going?
25971And you,she said, as if she read him,"are not quite sure whether you really want me?"
25971And your aunt, you think, really wo n''t be equal to it?
25971And your mother?
25971And yours is?
25971And-- he''s just married, is n''t he?
25971And_ why_ do you want to marry her, sir? 25971 And_ you_, Jinny?
25971Another author?
25971Any aitches?
25971Anyhow,said Mrs. Eldred,"you let''i m see as''ow we was n''t any way snatchin''at''i m?"
25971Apart from Hambleby what are you? 25971 Are n''t we going,"said she,"to have tea with Miss Collett?"
25971Are n''t you afraid of my biting the bulb off, and the quicksilver flying down my throat, and running about inside me for ever and ever?
25971Are n''t you coming in?
25971Are n''t you going to drink your coffee?
25971Are n''t you proud of him? 25971 Are they so difficult?"
25971Are you always going to bring that up against me? 25971 Are you certain sure of your feelin''s, sir?"
25971Are you fond of cats, sir?
25971Are you going to let me have the next?
25971Are you going to stay here, then?
25971Are you going to take my little girl away from me?
25971Are you going with them,she said,"or will you stay with me?"
25971Are you happy_ now_?
25971Are you quite sure?
25971Are you sure now?
25971Are you sure they do take it out of her? 25971 Are you sure you do n''t want to leave us?
25971Are you sure you want to?
25971Are you sure you''re not just a little bit in love with that little banker''s clerk?
25971Are you sure,said she,"that he''s the horrid Sybarite you think him?"
25971Are you sure,she said,"that Mrs. Brodrick would n''t mind?"
25971As much as you think you do?
25971At any rate you knew that it was touch and go with me? 25971 At any rate,"said he,"you''ll let me come and see you now?
25971At the Post Office?
25971Aunt says, sir, do you mind my waitin''on you?
25971But inevitable?
25971But was n''t she glad to know you were different?
25971But what can we do?
25971But when you remind me of it every minute? 25971 But why God?"
25971But why am_ I_ down there?
25971But why? 25971 But why?"
25971But you care?
25971But you did n''t, and you do n''t want me to be happy-- in my own way?
25971But you know?
25971But you wanted to escape, all the time?
25971But you will, because I''m a poor one?
25971But you''re tired?
25971But you, my dear-- you?
25971But, surely, you do n''t want to do them_ well_?
25971But-- from what?
25971By everything you mean----?
25971By the way,said Caro Bickersteth,"where_ is_ George Tanqueray?"
25971By what, then?
25971By what? 25971 Ca n''t anything be done,"Brodrick said irritably,"to stop that screaming?"
25971Ca n''t understand what?
25971Ca n''t you hear him saying,''Come on, come on, what the dickens does it matter if I do see you? 25971 Ca n''t you see that anything creative-- everything creative must be like that?"
25971Ca n''t you understand that I do n''t want to see my wife working for me?
25971Ca n''t you? 25971 Ca n''t you?"
25971Can it be done?
25971Can they hold Hughy?
25971Can they?
25971Can you afford to have him done for?
25971Can you be ready by three o''clock?
25971Can you catch it and stroke it?
25971Can you help looking?
25971Can you imagine George Tanqueray,said Nina,"throwing himself away on anybody?"
25971Can you see what''s going on inside_ me_?
25971Can you wait?
25971Can you,said he,"adore a little devil when it teases?"
25971Can you?
25971Carrying the coals?
25971Come, you do n''t want them to be unhappy, do you?
25971Common?
25971Could n''t? 25971 Could_ I_ stop you?"
25971Dear Nicky,she said,"are you consoling me?"
25971Dear Owen,said Jane,"do you think they''ll sink him?"
25971Did I ever want to make her unhappy?
25971Did I look as if I did?
25971Did I look intoxicated?
25971Did n''t I get you out of that nicely?
25971Did n''t I?
25971Did n''t realize what?
25971Did she say so?
25971Did she wire?
25971Did you ever put your foot through a rule? 25971 Did you like taking care of the baby?"
25971Did you mind my showing them to George Tanqueray?
25971Did you tell him plain,said Mrs. Eldred,"that we''d''ave no triflin''?"
25971Did you tell''i m that if''e was not certain sure''e wanted''er, there was a young man who did?
25971Did you think I cared for it so frightfully?
25971Did you think I wanted you to go?
25971Did you? 25971 Did''e always work that''ard?"
25971Die?
25971Different?

25971Do I know, George? 25971 Do I like him?
25971Do I misunderstand you? 25971 Do I now?"
25971Do I startle you?

25971Do I?
25971Do n''t I?
25971Do n''t you know,said she,"that it''s in Mr. Brodrick''s hands entirely now?"
25971Do n''t you love him?
25971Do n''t you really think,said he,"that this sort of thing is nicer?"
25971Do n''t you see that his being my husband robs the situation of its charm, the vagueness that might have been its danger?
25971Do n''t you see that that makes it all the worse for her? 25971 Do n''t you see, dear, that it''s the price of peace?
25971Do n''t you want them to press?
25971Do you call_ this_ a home?
25971Do you hate it?
25971Do you know her, Jinny?
25971Do you know me?
25971Do you know what I should do with you if I could have my way? 25971 Do you know what I should like to do?"
25971Do you know what you are?
25971Do you know what_ her_ dream is?
25971Do you know,he said,"that you''ve come home?
25971Do you know? 25971 Do you like him, Jinny?"
25971Do you like him?
25971Do you like him?
25971Do you like my hair?
25971Do you like reading them?
25971Do you like taking care of me?
25971Do you like the way I make love?
25971Do you mean Hugh?
25971Do you mean to say you do n''t know what''s the matter with him?
25971Do you mean to say you''ve given up that Dog Show-- with Joey in it-- for me?
25971Do you mean to say, Jinny, that if he did n''t you would n''t go?
25971Do you mean to tell me that you--_you_ care about it more than you care about him? 25971 Do you mean to tell me,"said Brodrick,"that it''s that?"
25971Do you mean-- for Him?
25971Do you mind telling me if you''ve any other chance?
25971Do you mind,she said,"if I go out?
25971Do you mind?
25971Do you never take risks? 25971 Do you often come over to Wendover?"
25971Do you remember how you came to see me there?
25971Do you remember saying,''When you''ve made yourself an absolutely clear medium, then you can begin''?
25971Do you remember two years ago-- when you would n''t drink?
25971Do you remember, Jinny, how we were all in love with George, you and I and Nina and poor old Caro? 25971 Do you remember?"
25971Do you suppose I''ve given her away to him?
25971Do you suppose Laura thinks so?
25971Do you suppose,she said,"it is n''t awful for me to have to stand by and see it, and do nothing?
25971Do you suppose,she said,"that woman counts?
25971Do you suppose_ I_ like it? 25971 Do you think I can ever creep back into my hole again and be obscure?"
25971Do you think I do n''t?
25971Do you think he cared in the very least for her?
25971Do you think he''ll fall in love with Laura?
25971Do you think so? 25971 Do you think, sir, Joey''ll get a prize?"
25971Do you think, sir, you could do without me on the tenth?
25971Do you think,he said,"it does mean most to her?"
25971Do you think,he said,"she minds being left?"
25971Do you think,he said,"she''ll stand beside Jane Holland?"
25971Do you think,said Frances,"we''d better open his eyes?"
25971Do you think,said Laura,"I''d better wake Papa?"
25971Do you think,said he,"she''s happy?"
25971Do you think,said she, as they crowded on his doorstep,"do you think he''ll be at home?"
25971Do you think,she said,"you could get me a cup of tea from the servant''s breakfast?"
25971Do you want me to go?
25971Do you want to go in?
25971Do you want to please me, Rose?
25971Do you want to see him very much?
25971Do you write in this room? 25971 Do you, you of all people, tie me down to that?"
25971Do you? 25971 Does Rose not know what that hat means?"
25971Does anybody know what''s become of Tanks?
25971Does anybody,said Jane,"know how the really beautiful things are done?"
25971Does he really mind seeing people?
25971Does he suggest that_ you_ do n''t understand her?
25971Does he think I wanted him to see it?
25971Does it look as if I''d given it up?
25971Does it matter why?
25971Does it seem to you, then, that_ I_''ve defeated my end?
25971Does it think,he said,"that it crushed poor Nina with its beauty?"
25971Does n''t he kick?
25971Does n''t it look, Jinny, as if genius were the biggest curse a woman can be saddled with? 25971 Does n''t that Nicholson man know?"
25971Effy?
25971Even? 25971 Everything?"
25971Except by some sudden, unconsidered movement of your own?
25971Experience? 25971 Feel?
25971Flagrant?
25971From what?
25971Genius?
25971George Tanqueray?
25971George dear, ca n''t you do something? 25971 George, is he really there?"
25971George,she said,"you know women as God knows them; why did n''t you know me?
25971George-- do you think it''ll ever come back to me?
25971Gertrude knows that for a fact?
25971Gertrude-- do_ you_ think I''m bad for him?
25971Go farther? 25971 Has he known her long?"
25971Has n''t it?
25971Have I done it very badly?
25971Have I? 25971 Have her?
25971Have n''t I told you I''m going to marry her?
25971Have n''t I told you?
25971Have n''t you been sleeping?
25971Have the children been too much for you?
25971Have you always lived here?
25971Have you any idea, Jinny, how it goes?
25971Have you come to turn me out?
25971Have you liked it as much as you used to like our other days?
25971Have you thought of how I''m not a lady? 25971 Have you_ got_ to go?"
25971He got fifteen pounds for an article the other day, and what do you think he did with it? 25971 He is a great poet?
25971He is a very great friend of yours?
25971He''s been going it, has he? 25971 He''s had to wait, then, six months?"
25971He?
25971Henry, is it true that if Mabel had had children she''d have been all right?
25971Henry? 25971 Her health?
25971Her? 25971 Here have I been away from you, how long?
25971His hair never_ has_ come on, has it? 25971 His life?
25971Honourable?
25971How about the new gown?
25971How about_ them_, though?
25971How am I to get round them''eaps to dust?
25971How are you going on?
25971How can I go and leave him?
25971How can I?
25971How can I?
25971How can any idea be mine,said Gertrude,"if I always agree with Mr. Brodrick?
25971How can you stand his eyes?
25971How could I know,she said fiercely,"what would wring your heart?"
25971How could I?
25971How could I?
25971How did you know?
25971How do you know it''s all wrong?
25971How do you know she''s pretty?
25971How do you know she''s simple?
25971How do you know what I call good- looking?
25971How do you know what it would be?
25971How do you know?
25971How do you know?
25971How do you know?
25971How do you mean?
25971How do you think I want you to?
25971How have you managed to preserve your beautiful innocence? 25971 How long will you be?"
25971How much do you think he cares for poor Rose when he''s in the state I''m in?
25971How much? 25971 How old is she?"
25971How on earth did you get in without my hearing you?
25971How should I know? 25971 How should I know?"
25971How would you deal,said Brodrick suddenly,"with mixed marriages?"
25971How''s the''Monthly Review''?
25971How?
25971How_ could_ you know a thing like that?
25971How_ do_ you know?
25971Hugh dear, did it never strike you that you are a very large family? 25971 Hugh,"she said,"was I unkind to her?"
25971I did n''t jump,said Jane,"did I?"
25971I do n''t irritate you, sittin''here, do I, sir?
25971I hope,he said,"it has n''t spoilt you, Jinny?"
25971I know,she said,"but if I don''t----""Well?"
25971I know; but----Is there anything for tea?
25971I may keep him, too?
25971I meant-- supposing he were ill----"You meant to frighten me?
25971I say, Gee- Gee''s going strong, is n''t she?
25971I say, Infant,she said suddenly,"were you ever in love?"
25971I say, Mummy, do n''t you like her awfully?
25971I say, but would n''t you mind?
25971I say, may n''t I be both?
25971I say, shall we go to the play to- night?
25971I say, what''s_ he_ been doing?
25971I say, where are you going?
25971I say, you''re not expecting anybody else?
25971I say,he said,"you do n''t think they''re unhappy?"
25971I sha n''t spoil him then if I stay?
25971I suppose I_ shall_''ave to talk to her?
25971I suppose you never realized till now how wonderful that woman was?
25971I suppose,he said,"you think that when we go in I shall let you wait on me, and it''ll be just the same as it was before?"
25971I suppose,he said,"you''re really afraid that they''ll get too fond of you?"
25971I suppose,said Brodrick,"what we_ are_ discussing is her genius?"
25971I wonder,said Jane,"how much George will have to pay?"
25971I''d rather you let it be?
25971I''ve pleased you?
25971I, then?
25971I? 25971 I?
25971I?--Bully her?
25971I_ do_ help you by staying?
25971If I did n''t what?
25971If I did win, would n''t it prove that the handicap was n''t what you thought it?
25971If I feel it,said he,"what must_ you_ feel?"
25971If nothing''s left of a big strong man like George Tanqueray, how much do you suppose is left of me? 25971 If the date''s not settled, surely I''ve still a chance?"
25971If,she said,"I was a virtuous woman, the sort of woman who sits on her husband''s head like an uncomfortable crown?"
25971Ill? 25971 Ill?
25971In what way?
25971Injure it? 25971 Irritate me?
25971Is Joey a pedigree dog, too?
25971Is anybody ill?
25971Is anything wrong with my hair?
25971Is he asking their advice?
25971Is he finished?
25971Is it Rose?
25971Is it a garden- party?
25971Is it absolutely necessary for you to live in Camden Town?
25971Is it all right, George?
25971Is it all right?
25971Is it any use trying to bring it up to Gertrude''s standard?
25971Is it my house? 25971 Is it those horrible accounts?"
25971Is it,she said,"the masterpiece of folly?"
25971Is it-- the same thing that my child has?
25971Is it?
25971Is it?
25971Is n''t he funny?
25971Is n''t he,said Tanqueray,"a little young?"
25971Is n''t he?
25971Is n''t it about time she_ did_ come back?
25971Is n''t it rather a pity that she ever left?
25971Is n''t it-- horrible?
25971Is n''t she?
25971Is she ill?
25971Is she like Miss Kentish? 25971 Is she like Mrs.''Enderson down at Fleet?"
25971Is that why you hate it? 25971 Is that your fault or hers?"
25971Is there anything in those letters you mind my seeing?
25971Is there anything you want that you do n''t have here? 25971 Is there,"said Miss Collett,"a lady coming to tea?"
25971Is your tea as you like it?
25971Is''E lookin''for anything to do besides''Is writin''?
25971Is_ that_ what you think of him?
25971It does n''t make you unhappy?
25971It does n''t mean that you''re not well, Jinny?
25971It gives you, does n''t it, an agreeable sense of impropriety at your own fireside?
25971It looks as if you were alone a lot, does n''t it?
25971It''s awful, is n''t it,said she,"not knowin''wot really is for people''s good?"
25971It''s got as far as that, has it? 25971 It''s his pleasure, is n''t it?"
25971It''s killing her then-- not having them?
25971It''s not as if I bothered you-- I say,_ they_ do n''t bother you, do they?
25971It''s not my fault, is it?
25971It''s that, is it?
25971Jane,he said,"will you forgive me for never coming to see you?
25971Jinny, why are n''t you always like this? 25971 Jinny,"he had said,"why do n''t you do as I do?
25971Jinny,he said gently,"what''s the matter with you?"
25971Jinny,he said,"what are you doing in that galley?"
25971Jinny,he said,"where do you get the fire that you put into your books?"
25971Jinny,she said,"have you any idea how it happened?"
25971Jinny-- do you remember that walk we had once, coming back from Wendover?
25971Jinny-- have you ever reckoned with your beastly genius?
25971Jinny? 25971 Kiddy,"she said,"how_ will_ you----?"
25971Kind? 25971 Let him_ in_?"
25971Let it out? 25971 Like me?"
25971Little dogs? 25971 May I come and see you again some day?"
25971May I come in?
25971May I give you some more tea?
25971May I look?
25971May I see her-- afterwards?
25971May I show them to Jane Holland?
25971May I sit with_ you_ now?
25971May I speak to you a moment?
25971May I turn the light up?
25971May I? 25971 May n''t I be?"
25971Me? 25971 Meaning?
25971Meet? 25971 Minded?
25971Minny?
25971Miss''Olland--''ow many hours do_ you_ sit at it?
25971Mixed----?
25971More so than her last?
25971Mr. Brodrick,she said presently,"do you really want a serial from me?"
25971Mr. Brodrick? 25971 Mrs. Tanqueray''s got the wrong one, then?"
25971Must I do it?
25971Must n''t I?
25971My dear John, why should n''t he?
25971My dear Miss Collett, do you know who she is? 25971 My dear Rose,"said Jane,"whatever do you think she''ll do?"
25971My dear-- you know what''s the matter with her?
25971My handicap?
25971My head----?
25971My little one,he murmured,"ca n''t you understand it?
25971My opinions? 25971 Natural?
25971Need you do it quite so soon?
25971Need you,said Nina to Prothero,"spread the butter quite so thick?"
25971Never-- anything else?
25971Nicky,she said,"why do you look like that?
25971Nina,he said,"why did you write this terrible book?
25971No difference?
25971No?
25971Not here? 25971 Not if I went mad, Rose?
25971Not just for the tenth?
25971Not my business? 25971 Not odder than you, do I?
25971Not to do things-- that''s the secret, is it?
25971Not to the angel in the house?
25971Not,he said,"if she were to marry Him?"
25971Not_ right_?
25971Now?
25971Of course Mr. Robinson wants you to marry him?
25971Of immortality?
25971Of what, then?
25971Of what?
25971Of yourself?
25971Oh, George, is anything the matter?
25971Oh, I make it come, do I?
25971Oh, Jane,said Sophy,"what are you made of?"
25971Oh, Jinny, is there no one to take care of you? 25971 Oh, Miss Lempriere, will you go to Laura?"
25971Oh, Nicky, how do you know what''s good for him? 25971 Oh, do n''t you want,"said Winny,"do n''t you want to kiss his little feet?
25971Oh, is that all? 25971 Oh, so that was it, was it?
25971Oh, that''s it, is it? 25971 Oh, was n''t it?
25971Oh, what?
25971Oh,said she,"it makes_ that_ difference, does it?"
25971Oh-- my career----"The question is,he meditated,"would it?"
25971On their account?
25971One thing?
25971Or has he left Wilbury?
25971Or is he,said Tanqueray,"too true to be altogether good?"
25971Or is it too late?
25971Or,Jane amended,"why not make the marriage of geniuses a criminal act, like suicide?
25971Or,said he,"may I come again?
25971Ought I to deprive you of his society?
25971Owen,she said suddenly,"do you mind seeing?"
25971Owen,she said,"do n''t you want to get away?
25971Owen,she said,"how did George Tanqueray strike you?"
25971Owen,she said,"since I''m breaking all the rules, why ca n''t I go out, too, and look after you?"
25971Owen,she said,"will you bring the rest?
25971Owen-- does it never occur to you that any human being can be of use?
25971Owen-- shall I ever be where you are now?
25971Playing with her? 25971 Risked it?"
25971Rose, do you know when I''m delirious and when I''m not?
25971Rose, do you remember how I came to you at Fleet, and brought you the moon in a band- box?
25971Rose, why are you sitting in this room?
25971Rose, why did you marry me? 25971 Rose,"he said severely,"why are you not at the Rose Show?"
25971Rose,he said suddenly,"do you know what a wood- nymph is?"
25971Rose,he said,"do you think I''m good- looking?"
25971Rose,he said,"have you thought it over?"
25971Sensible?
25971Shall I have to see him?
25971Shall I?
25971Shall you mind, Hugh?
25971She would n''t''ave you? 25971 She?"
25971Should I ask you if I did n''t want you? 25971 Since he went to Hampstead then?"
25971Sir?
25971Sir?
25971So at last you gave it up? 25971 So it''s come back, Jinny?"
25971So soon? 25971 So that''s how you''ve solved your problem?"
25971So that, but for this all- important question of the date, I might have had you?
25971So you think you know a man of brains when you see him, do you?
25971So you thought I would be kind to you?
25971So you''ve had_ your_ talk, have you?
25971Sorry? 25971 Sunday?"
25971Supposing,said Frances presently,"it did happen-- what then?"
25971Supposing,said Jinny,"you asked her, very nicely, to come back-- don''t you think that would save us?"
25971Supposing,she said,"you repulse me?
25971Supposing?
25971Take it back? 25971 Tanqueray?
25971That he''ll get better?
25971That means the best tea- service and my best manners?
25971That''s how he has you, is it?
25971That''s where he has you?
25971That''s why you''ve been killing yourself, is it?
25971That''s why, then, is n''t it?
25971The baby?
25971The best man-- to die?
25971The best thing I could do? 25971 The fiery lady?"
25971The fiery lady?
25971The gate?
25971The general effect? 25971 The praise, Jinny, did n''t you like the praise?
25971The tenth?
25971Then I oughtn''t-- ought I-- to take up any of it?
25971Then that,said she, pointing,"that is not to stand?"
25971Then w''y,said Rose, coming straight to her point,"is he doin''it now?"
25971Then why does n''t''E take a little''ouse?
25971Then why not you?
25971Then( she almost cried it)"why should he suffer?"
25971Then, Rose, Mrs. Eldred is not your aunt?
25971Then, my dear,said Frances,"you would say that geniuses would do very much better not to marry?"
25971Then,said Miss Bickersteth,"how_ did_ it happen?"
25971Then-- you''ll stay?
25971There are no alterations to be made, thank heaven----"How about this?
25971There, do you see the full horror of it?
25971They might have known what?
25971They''re very fond of their mother, are n''t they?
25971They? 25971 Tired, Laura?"
25971To call on_ me_?
25971To her?
25971To leave? 25971 To throw himself away?
25971Together? 25971 Too well?"
25971Uncle Hugh? 25971 Uneducated?"
25971Unkind?
25971Us?
25971Was I a brute? 25971 Was it any good?"
25971Was it really mine? 25971 Was it so hard?"
25971Was it so very often?
25971Was it? 25971 Was that your idea, or his?"
25971Was there, or was there not to be a place for poets in the magazine?
25971We really came,Winny said,"to know whether Jinny_ is_ going away?"
25971We''re a poor lot, are n''t we?
25971We?
25971Wearing it? 25971 Well, Jinny, so you''ve seen my aunt- in- law?"
25971Well, have you ever seen a lady Uncle Hugh could really stand-- except Miss Holland?
25971Well, if you think it''s wise to give her her head to that extent-- a woman with Jane''s temperament----"What do you know about her temperament?
25971Well, sir, if it''s not inconvenient, and you do n''t really mind Aunt----"Does n''t she want to see Joey, too?
25971Well, was I kind enough?
25971Well, what are you two putting your heads together about?
25971Well, you have spoken, have n''t you?
25971Well,he said presently,"what are you going to do?"
25971Well,he said,"do you still want to go away for three months?"
25971Well,he said,"have you seen enough of me?"
25971Well,he said,"have you written to the lady?"
25971Well,said Nicky,"he seemed to have kept it so carefully from all his friends----""He told_ you_----Why, you were there, were n''t you?"
25971Well-- isn''t it?
25971Well-- what would you think of Putney or Wimbledon as a compromise?
25971Well-- you''ve had the courage to get so far, why have n''t you the courage to go on?
25971Well?
25971Well?
25971Well?
25971Were you by any chance making it-- the crown?
25971Were you really, Jinny?
25971What I want to know is why she does n''t have them? 25971 What are you crying about?"
25971What are you doing in it yourself, George?
25971What are you doing there?
25971What are you going to do now?
25971What are you going to do with me now?
25971What are you going to do with my little girl?
25971What are you going to do?
25971What are you looking at?
25971What business have we----"To go putting one and one together so as to make two?
25971What can I do?
25971What can you expect when a man mates like that?
25971What could I do?
25971What did she tell you?
25971What did you come back for?
25971What did you know?
25971What did you mean, then?
25971What did you say to your Uncle Henry?
25971What did you talk about?
25971What did your Uncle say to that?
25971What do you expect,he said presently,"to happen?"
25971What do you mean by that?
25971What do you say to that?
25971What do you say?
25971What do you suppose happens when I''m-- away?
25971What do you think would tear her most?
25971What do you think you''re doing?
25971What do you think? 25971 What do you want to know him for?"
25971What does he do for it?
25971What does she complain of?
25971What else did you say to him?
25971What had he to do with it?
25971What has n''t?
25971What have they done to look so happy, and so perfectly at peace?
25971What have you done this for?
25971What have you done to agitate him?
25971What have you done with my hat?
25971What have_ you_ been doing?
25971What is Henry''s point of view?
25971What is it then?
25971What is it then?
25971What is it, Jinny?
25971What is it, Nina?
25971What is it, Papa dear, have you had a little dream? 25971 What is it, then?"
25971What is it? 25971 What is it?
25971What is it?
25971What is it?
25971What is there to make up for? 25971 What made you think that?"
25971What made''er take to writin''? 25971 What makes you think so?"
25971What makes you think so?
25971What makes you think so?
25971What makes you think you ca n''t write? 25971 What man?"
25971What of?
25971What on earth do you know about George Tanqueray?
25971What should I stay for?
25971What sort of woman?
25971What the devil do you mean by asking me that?
25971What things, Kiddy, what things?
25971What things?
25971What things?
25971What things?
25971What was it you said?
25971What was it?
25971What was it?
25971What were you doing with those gloves?
25971What were you, Rose, before you came here?
25971What will you do?
25971What will you_ do_, dear child? 25971 What wo n''t I tell you?"
25971What would you do,he said,"if the little chap were to get ill?"
25971What''s Brodrick doing?
25971What''s all this? 25971 What''s bad for him?"
25971What''s become of the things that made Papa so adorable?
25971What''s been the matter?
25971What''s he been saying to you?
25971What''s his name again?
25971What''s horrible?
25971What''s the good of_ my_ believing in him? 25971 What''s the matter with her?"
25971What''s the matter? 25971 What''s this?"
25971What''s wrong with your mind, Jinny?
25971What, Nina? 25971 What, indeed?
25971What, not this outrageous hussy, flinging herself at your head, and rumpling your nice collar?
25971What,he said presently,"is Miss Lempriere''s work like?
25971What,said he,"do you really think of her?"
25971What-- do you want-- to see?
25971What? 25971 What?
25971What? 25971 What?
25971What?
25971What?
25971What?
25971What_ did_ it mean-- to you?
25971Whatever brought you here?
25971When a norm-- an ordinary-- person marries a genius? 25971 When did you begin to love me, Rose?"
25971When will Eldred be back?
25971When''s Jane coming back?
25971When,she said,"can you let me know?"
25971When?
25971When?
25971Where have you been?
25971Where indeed?
25971Where is she?
25971Where''s Gertrude gone?
25971Where''s that address? 25971 Which way?"
25971Who is this man of Nina''s?
25971Who looked after you?
25971Who was she?
25971Who will?
25971Who''s he?
25971Who? 25971 Who_ is_ Brodrick?"
25971Whoever_ does_ come down on you?
25971Why am I marked out for this? 25971 Why apologize?"
25971Why are n''t we talking,she said,"about George Tanqueray?"
25971Why are n''t you at his feet?
25971Why are you glad?
25971Why are you going?
25971Why are you so unkind to Nicky?
25971Why ca n''t we be happy now?
25971Why ca n''t you now?
25971Why ca n''t you say at once what''s wrong?
25971Why care,he said,"for things that are so bent on dying?"
25971Why could n''t you?
25971Why did n''t I feel it then? 25971 Why did n''t you call out?"
25971Why did n''t you do it like that before?
25971Why did n''t you go with her?
25971Why did n''t you marry her? 25971 Why did n''t you tell me, then?"
25971Why did you go away,she said,"and make me cry?"
25971Why did you let her go away without telling me?
25971Why did you tell them?
25971Why did you?
25971Why do her people let her?
25971Why do we like anybody?
25971Why do you blame me? 25971 Why do you choose it?"
25971Why do you do it? 25971 Why do you like him?"
25971Why do you like it?
25971Why do you like me?
25971Why do you like my green and brown dress?
25971Why do you talk about my heart?
25971Why do you talk about my heart?
25971Why does he let his beastly relations worry you? 25971 Why ever not,"he repeated,"when we want you?"
25971Why have you come, then?
25971Why indeed?
25971Why not I?
25971Why not? 25971 Why not?
25971Why not? 25971 Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why not?
25971Why on earth do n''t you send him away?
25971Why should I take it back?
25971Why should I? 25971 Why should I?"
25971Why should n''t I be? 25971 Why should n''t I tell you that I care for you?
25971Why should n''t he be?
25971Why should n''t he?
25971Why should n''t he?
25971Why should n''t it be Hambleby? 25971 Why should n''t there be?"
25971Why should you?
25971Why the tenth?
25971Why would you be glad to nurse Miss Kentish?
25971Why''of course''?
25971Why, after all, should n''t you have told me?
25971Why, indeed?
25971Why, is n''t Hambleby----?
25971Why, what else could the poor woman do?
25971Why,said Sophy,"does he say anything at all?
25971Why? 25971 Why?"
25971Will his wife be here?
25971Will you come to my den, Jinny, and talk about Hambleby?
25971Will you tell her,said Brodrick,"or shall I?"
25971With Book, Jinny?
25971With Hugh''s_ ideas_,said John,"he''s hardly likely to make this thing pay, is he?
25971Wo n''t it be the proprietors of the''Morning Telegraph''who''ll be responsible-- if I die?
25971Wo n''t that ever be better?
25971Wo n''t that limit your circulation?
25971Wo n''t there be moments?
25971Wo n''t you care for them, Jinny?
25971Wo n''t you sit down?
25971Women? 25971 Work?
25971Wot am I to do with that''at?
25971Wot''s she like?
25971Wot, a dinner- party?
25971Would he mind your bringing him to see me some day? 25971 Would it have been happiness to have given my heart and my soul to somebody who had no use for them and showed it?"
25971Would it not be better,she said,"for me to go?"
25971Would it worry you?
25971Would it? 25971 Would n''t I?"
25971Would n''t he have liked you to keep it up?
25971Would n''t it be better just to accept the fact that she was wonderful?
25971Would n''t you?
25971Would you like to have Minny, sir? 25971 Would you like to see the little dogs, sir?"
25971Would you mind taking it off?
25971Would you mind very much,she said,"if I never wrote anything again?"
25971Would you rather?
25971Would you say it to Hugh?
25971Would you? 25971 You are n''t afraid of me now?
25971You are not,he said,"expecting either of my sisters?"
25971You bought it?
25971You can think of no reason why it would be better for me to go?
25971You consider him a lunatic, do you?
25971You consider that equivalent to calling her a beast, do you?
25971You did n''t throw cold water on his magazine, did you?
25971You did, did you?
25971You do believe in him?
25971You do n''t deny his genius?
25971You do n''t dine, do you,he said suddenly,"till half- past seven?"
25971You do n''t mean to tell me,he said sternly,"that you dream of answering?"
25971You do n''t want to be alone in your immortality?
25971You do n''t want to make her unhappy, do you?
25971You fainted?--You were ill on the spot?
25971You insist that I showed it?
25971You kept it to yourself?
25971You like living here? 25971 You mean that you were entertaining Rose?"
25971You mean that, sir?
25971You mean,she said,"a visionary would see more?"
25971You mean,she said,"she wo n''t understand it if I do n''t come?"
25971You sat up half the night to correct this, I suppose?
25971You saw me?
25971You think I''d better keep clear of him?
25971You think I''m a beast, do you?
25971You think I''m a coward still?
25971You think I''m bad for him?
25971You think he''s that sort?
25971You think it''s so terrible?
25971You think so? 25971 You think so?
25971You think them gods, then, your creators?
25971You think too then,the blameless youth continued,"that if Miss Holland-- married it would injure her career?"
25971You think,said she,"that it''s odd of her-- the last thing anybody could want?"
25971You thought you saw that in me?
25971You tried?
25971You understand clearly, Jinny,Tanqueray had said,"that you''re paying for Prothero''s poems?"
25971You want me to be poor?
25971You want me to be thoroughly uncomfortable? 25971 You want to help them?"
25971You were going?
25971You wo n''t be busy in August, will you? 25971 You would n''t call this country, would you?"
25971You''d have been burnt sooner?
25971You''d like some coffee?
25971You''ll stay, wo n''t you?
25971You''re just going out?
25971You''re not going to take her away? 25971 You''re_ not_?
25971You''ve got him so safe?
25971You''ve seen it?
25971You''ve thought of how I have n''t a penny and never shall have?
25971You? 25971 You?
25971You? 25971 You?
25971You? 25971 You?
25971You?
25971You?
25971You?
25971Your chance?
25971Your coming, Nicky?
25971Your genius?
25971Your stepmother?
25971_ Does_ he see her on business?
25971_ I_ make you feel----?
25971_ Is_ it too good to live, Gertrude?
25971_ Should_ you?
25971_ Their_ nerves? 25971 _ When_,"said he, by way of being irrelevant,"are you going to give us another big book?"
25971_ Whose_ illness?
25971_ You_ clear out? 25971 _ Your_ nerves?"
25971( They wondered had she heard?)
25971( Where should he be if Rose were to let herself go?)
25971--Without their mother?"
25971A feeling for Joey?"
25971A house, Laura declared, was all very well for a poet like poor Nicky( what would poor Nicky be without his house?
25971About that serial----""What serial?"
25971After last night?"
25971After that infernal row he made?
25971After your letter?
25971Ah, Jinny, how could I ever want to write again?"
25971All alone?
25971All the same----""Well?"
25971And I suppose you consider Mr. Robinson a better dressed man than I am?"
25971And Jane heard herself saying,"Why do n''t you look where you''re going?"
25971And Nina was saying,"Ca n''t you take it into your own hands?
25971And before George Tanqueray-- How could you?"
25971And did he think that he could play the fool with a paper like the"Morning Telegraph"?
25971And for her, also, was it not the law?
25971And in the same breath of thought she asked herself,"What_ did_ he see?"
25971And it ca n''t be unsettled?"
25971And since she felt like that about it, beast or no beast, would n''t even Owen say that she was not so dreadful after all?
25971And that when it comes down on me it''s in the proportion of about seven to one?"
25971And that, if they did fall on his head, he could take them on and off like his hat?
25971And the day is very long, is it?"
25971And then where would you have been?"
25971And what does it matter which of us earns it, or who spends it?"
25971And which of them?
25971And who cares about George Tanqueray?
25971And who ever would have thought that he''d have cared?"
25971And why he let her break her neck, running round after Aunt Mabel?
25971And why should I?"
25971And you do n''t love me when I look like that?"
25971And you never told us?"
25971And you would n''t think, would you, she was a marrying woman?"
25971And your small friend, Miss Gunning?
25971And, after all, what was it but the power, developed with opportunity, of doing for Brodrick whatever it was that Jane at the moment could not do?
25971Are n''t we, Gee- Gee?"
25971Are you actin''honest by that girl, or are you not?"
25971As it is, wot is there for her to look forward to?"
25971At her, not through her, and she wondered, had he seen enough?
25971At that table?"
25971At this moment Tanqueray said,"How''s Hambleby?"
25971Aware now, vividly aware, of the thing he was doing, he asked himself why, if he was not in love with Jane, he had not been in love with Nina?
25971Because, if she''ad been, there might be something----""Something?"
25971Besides, if you went, what on earth would they do without you?"
25971Besides, what should I do?"
25971Brodrick inquired who was to make her?
25971Brodrick intimated that the state of the"Monthly Review"was prosperity itself, and he asked her if she had heard lately from Mr. Prothero?
25971Brodrick?"
25971But all she said was,"He''s like that, is he?"
25971But he told them all straight out, laughing, and asking them if she was n''t very clever?
25971But how can you when he''s unhappy?
25971But is n''t it getting rather cold?"
25971But it is unfortunate, is n''t it, that she-- er-- wheezes?"
25971But now you''ve begun knowing all sorts of people----""Is that why you''ve kept away from me?"
25971But they had got wind of him somehow, and had written many times inquiring when he would be ready?
25971But though she was sorry for Gertrude, her heart exulted and cried out in her,"Do you think He cares for the little squat god?
25971But what are you to do if you''ve nobody to talk to?"
25971But whatever should I do with it?
25971But wot is that_ but_ settin''?
25971By my vanity?"
25971Ca n''t you save me?"
25971Ca n''t you see how awful it is for me?"
25971Ca n''t you see it?
25971Ca n''t you see that it''s just as natural and normal-- for me?"
25971Ca n''t you see that it''s you she''s in love with-- and that''s why she_ must_ have a carpet- sweeper?"
25971Ca n''t you see what I was afraid of?
25971Ca n''t you see, ca n''t you see,"she implored,"how, literally, I''m living on you?"
25971Ca n''t you take your hair out of Miss Holland''s face?
25971Ca n''t you understand, George?"
25971Can you forgive me?"
25971Caro would have kept them with her distressed, emphatic"_ Must_ you go?"
25971Could anybody?"
25971Could anything be more fatuous, more perverse?"
25971Could my cup of agony be fuller?"
25971Could she have borne to be, really, such a beast as that?
25971Could you have stood it?"
25971Could you repulse me?"
25971Could you?
25971Cut off from everybody?"
25971Deprived of everything that makes life amusing?"
25971Did Henry?
25971Did John?
25971Did he imagine that appointments hung on lamp- posts ready to his hand?
25971Did he know it?
25971Did he see, and yet did he not condemn her?
25971Did he suppose that she had forgotten the moment, four years ago, when Tanqueray had read the poem to them, and it had flashed on her----?
25971Did he, she wondered, recognize that she too had her problem; and was he providing for her too the simple and beautiful solution?
25971Did n''t he mention it?"
25971Did n''t she think it was about time to haul them up?
25971Did n''t the one stupendous obligation cover everything, and lay him, everlastingly abject, at her feet?
25971Did she indeed know her place?
25971Did she?
25971Did_ I_ ever pursue you?"
25971Do I?"
25971Do n''t I know how happy you are?"
25971Do n''t I tell you you''re always being had?"
25971Do n''t these walls press on you and hurt you?"
25971Do n''t you adore me in my other moods?"
25971Do n''t you know that you''re happiest like this?"
25971Do n''t you remember?"
25971Do n''t you see that you''re cruel to her?
25971Do n''t you?"
25971Do you always go about with your head among the stars?"
25971Do you hear?"
25971Do you know what you''ve done to me, you unspeakably divine person?
25971Do you like jam?"
25971Do you mean to tell me that was what you did it for?"
25971Do you mind so very much-- my wandering?"
25971Do you need me to tell you that?"
25971Do you never fling your heart down?"
25971Do you really think so?"
25971Do you remember?"
25971Do you remember?"
25971Do you remember?"
25971Do you see?"
25971Do you suppose I do n''t know?
25971Do you suppose anybody who cares for him will care a rap whom he marries?"
25971Do you think, if I became celebrated, I should give myself up to be devoured?"
25971Do you think_ her_ nice?"
25971Do_ I_ tire you?"
25971Do_ you_ know?"
25971Does it not stand?"
25971Does_ he_?"
25971Else why did he say that Susan was superior?
25971For a moment her eyes pleaded:"May n''t I be a woman?"
25971For your not getting me?"
25971Frances looked at Sophy and said,"Whoever would have thought that Jinny----?"
25971Had he not been first to recognize it?
25971Had they?
25971Has Nina told you?"
25971Has he ever given you anything?"
25971Has she anything of your breadth, your solidity, your fire?"
25971Has she----?"
25971Have I done that for you?"
25971Have n''t I seen you?
25971Have n''t I told you that I''m like a man?
25971Have n''t I?"
25971Have you any idea how much she cares for him?"
25971Have you thought of that?"
25971Have you told Jane about Prothero?"
25971Have you?"
25971He asked her if three months was not rather a long time for a woman to leave her home and her children?
25971He asked in quiet tones what it was all about?
25971He asked then( what they were all longing to know) when she was going to give them another book?
25971He had said he supposed she had seen the way"they had been going for him,"and she had asked him was it possible he minded?
25971He might make you----""What has he ever made me do?"
25971He wondered,"What does Brodrick do?"
25971He''ll always remind me----""_ Remind_ you?"
25971He''s worse than a family----""Worse than a----?"
25971Her aunt?
25971Her?"
25971How can I be happy going on-- giving myself to the people who rejected_ him_?
25971How can I?"
25971How can he?
25971How can we, when you''ve done so much?"
25971How can you hope, how can you possibly hope to do anything original, if you''re constantly breathing that atmosphere?
25971How can you tell?"
25971How could I?
25971How could he think of anything but that?
25971How could she forget it?
25971How could she refuse him anything on his birthday?
25971How could she?
25971How could there be any honour if he did not want his sisters to be there?
25971How could you think I would?"
25971How do you know that you''re going to get me?"
25971How on earth did you get hold of him?"
25971How on earth does she do it?"
25971How they''re all praising him?"
25971How was it, he said, that they were let in for him?
25971How will you live?"
25971How would Jane take it?
25971How would Laura?
25971How would Nina?
25971How, in the future, was he going to manage about birthdays?
25971How?"
25971However did you think of him?"
25971I do n''t know----""How on earth do you go on?"
25971I give them what they want, do I?
25971I have n''t made it go?
25971I say, would you mind awfully putting it on instead of that thing?"
25971I was only----""Does Henry say he''s ill?"
25971I''m not asking too much of you?"
25971I''m only asking you which is likely to be stronger?"
25971I_ was_ right?"
25971If Brodrick was n''t fine, if he was n''t perceptive, if he had n''t got the scent, Caro challenged them, how on earth did he discern Jane Holland?
25971If I do n''t do it now, when_ shall_ I do it?"
25971If he could take that from her, if he was in for it to that extent, why_ did_ he bother about the other stupid things?
25971If he dies?"
25971If he wanted to marry Gertrude, why on earth could n''t he marry her and have done with it?
25971If it was that he came for----"I do n''t know whether you''ve heard that I''m bringing out a magazine?"
25971If not Nina, why not Laura?
25971If you ca n''t admire him, what is the use of your admiring me?"
25971If you really do----""Have you had any other offers?"
25971If you wo n''t pay for peace, what will you pay for?"
25971In that case, why does n''t he practise, instead of living on his wife?"
25971Inside, to be sure, there was n''t any drawing- room; for what did Rose want with a drawing- room, she would like to know?
25971Is a poet not supposed ever to see anything under his exquisite nose?"
25971Is it Book?"
25971Is it very bad?"
25971Is n''t it funny?"
25971Is n''t it simple?"
25971Is n''t it splendid how he''s brought them round?
25971Is she ill?"
25971Is she married?"
25971Is that burn hurting you?"
25971Is that it?"
25971Is that it?"
25971Is that the fact?"
25971Is there any mortal thing that can be done that is n''t done?"
25971Is there anything wrong with him?"
25971Is there no one to keep you from that woman?"
25971It could n''t have been me, could it?"
25971It wants sticks and straws and feathers and things----""Do you mean I''ve got to go and find a beastly house?"
25971It was as if she had said,"Oh, Nicky-- to please me-- won''t you say nice things about her?"
25971Jane?
25971Laura answered quietly,"Owen would say what was his health compared with a set of verses?
25971Look at_ me_?"
25971May they come up, sir?"
25971Most of all Rose dreaded the question,"Wen is''E goin''to take a little''ouse?"
25971My dear-- on a little servant- girl without an aitch in her?"
25971Never?"
25971Not often; for Rose did not hold with gadding about when you had a husband; besides, she was afraid of Aunt asking her,"Wot''s_''E_ doin''?"
25971Not what you''d call a lady?"
25971Obedience, immitigable, unrelenting?
25971Or Laura?"
25971Or rather, why had they ever let him in?
25971Or shall we say to an honourable scruple?"
25971Or that they only waited for his appearance, to fall instantly upon his head?
25971Playing?"
25971Poor Baby has got nerves----""Well, my dear girl, is n''t it all the more reason why he should be with somebody who has n''t got''em?"
25971Poor little Laura, do n''t you remember how frightened we always were?"
25971Prothero inquired gaily, if they could n''t make a good fight there, where could they make it?
25971Prothero?"
25971Rather than not be honest you prefer to limit your circulation?"
25971Raving?"
25971Robinson?"
25971Robinson?"
25971Robinson?"
25971Robinson?"
25971Robinson?"
25971She added with her seeming irrelevance,"You did n''t go all the way to Putney then?"
25971She added, after a thoughtful pause,"What did you think of him?"
25971She asked herself why she had not obeyed the profounder instinct that had urged her to hold him as long as she had the power to hold?
25971She began by asking Rose when she was coming out to Putney?
25971She had a will; why could n''t she use it?
25971She had been the genius of order ever since she had come into his house-- good gracious, was it ten years ago?
25971She is n''t cut out for a contemplative, though she''s in a fair way of becoming a saint and----"She filled his blank,"And a martyr?"
25971She left him with that, turning on the threshold to add,"Why bother, then, about the other stupid things?"
25971She remembered how she had said to him that night,"May n''t I be a woman?"
25971She was positively asking herself,"What am I doing here?"
25971She was, Henry admitted, a great genius; but great genius, what was it, after all, but a great Neurosis?
25971She wondered, did they say of her and of_ her_ malady, how terrible it was for Hugh?
25971She_ was_ at it again, and the question was how to stop her?
25971Six months, is it?
25971So_ that_ was your view of it?
25971Soon?"
25971Supposing he had to face the chances of degeneration?
25971Surely, she said, it was the same thing, the same vision, the same ecstasy, or, if he liked, the same experience?
25971THE CREATORS I Three times during dinner he had asked himself what, after all, was he there for?
25971Tanqueray?"
25971Tanqueray?"
25971That address?"
25971That if_ you_''d chosen you might have done anything with me?"
25971That it''s you that''s making her ill?
25971The first thing he''ll ask is,''Where''s Jane?''"
25971The only thing is, would you like it?"
25971The question was, what was George coming back to?
25971Then the horrible thought would occur to him: supposing Gertrude were to go?
25971Then why these pitiable attempts at concealment, at the covering of the tracks?
25971Then, depend upon it, that''s wot made''er ill.""Ill?"
25971There, what more do you want?"
25971They knew Miss Bickersteth?
25971They were silent, and he gathered up, as it were, the burden of their silence when he stopped and faced her with his question--"How are you going on?"
25971Thinking about it-- that meant, of course, that he had for a moment doubted it?
25971To his surprise Winny kissed him and kept her face against his as she whispered,"And_ if_--she has to stay a year?"
25971To marry Gertrude?"
25971Uncommon?"
25971Was I a brute to you, Jinny?"
25971Was it I who went wrong?"
25971Was it not possible that she might be happier with somebody rather less eccentric?
25971Was it really so?
25971Was it?
25971Was n''t it clever of him to know?
25971Was n''t it funny of us never to have thought of it before?"
25971Was she a drawing- room author or a library author?
25971Was that what you went out to India and Central Africa to see?"
25971Well then, why make such a fuss about it?
25971Well, did he ever take you anywhere?"
25971Well, was n''t it?
25971Well-- what do you propose?"
25971Were n''t you just a little bit intoxicated?"
25971Were they pledged to chastity and obedience, too?
25971What about him?"
25971What am I to do?"
25971What are you going to do with him?"
25971What can I do?"
25971What did_ you_ risk?"
25971What do I do to him?"
25971What do I think?"
25971What do you suppose I did?"
25971What do you think I''m made of?"
25971What does Hugh think of it?"
25971What does he know about it?"
25971What does it matter if he never writes another line?"
25971What does it matter?
25971What does she do?"
25971What else should I mean?"
25971What have they got to do with you and me?"
25971What have you all been doing to her?
25971What have_ you_ been doing to her, Uncle Hughy?"
25971What is it?"
25971What is the use of lying, to me of all people?
25971What keeps you?"
25971What more do you want?"
25971What more, she said to herself, could a woman want?
25971What on earth did you do before you married me?"
25971What on earth possessed you to go and marry me?"
25971What we''re all afraid of?
25971What we''re eternally trying to escape from?
25971What would she do herself?
25971What''s a set of verses compared with his health?"
25971What''s all this?"
25971What''s made you cry?"
25971What''s put that into your head?"
25971What_ made_ you love me?"
25971What_ was_ Jinny like?
25971When it''s everlastingly, if I may say so, on the carpet?"
25971When people ask the Brodricks, What does that fellow Prothero do?
25971When they heard that he, George Tanqueray, was marrying a servant in a lodging- house?
25971When you said it?"
25971When''er father left''er to me?
25971Where is she?
25971Who was he to judge George Tanqueray?
25971Why are n''t you always adorable?"
25971Why ca n''t the Brodricks look after her?"
25971Why ca n''t you have the courage of your opinions?"
25971Why ca n''t you look at it in that light?"
25971Why could n''t he when he knew we were so rushed?"
25971Why could n''t he?
25971Why could n''t you_ tell_ me he was ill?"
25971Why did n''t you ask Prothero to meet her?"
25971Why do n''t you go away, if it was only for a few months every year?"
25971Why do you do it, Jinny?"
25971Why do you do these things?"
25971Why had she not told him?
25971Why is it, George?
25971Why not a quadruple arrangement if necessary?"
25971Why not?
25971Why on earth should she keep it in?"
25971Why on earth, if he had to marry one of them, had n''t he married_ her_?
25971Why should I be ashamed of it?
25971Why should I keep it up?"
25971Why should he not marry her?
25971Why should n''t I tell you?
25971Why should n''t he marry his landlady''s daughter if he likes?
25971Why should she?
25971Why should they take me and leave you alone?"
25971Why should they?"
25971Why should we_ seek_ to know?"
25971Why should you let these people decide your fate for you?"
25971Why throw it away on a wretched, clever little imp like me?"
25971Why was it that with all her feminine smallness and prettiness and pathos he had never cared for her?
25971Why"( she persisted),"did you come to me before him?"
25971Why, how old is that child?"
25971Why,"she asked abruptly,"do n''t I mind?"
25971Why,"she asked suddenly,"did you?"
25971Will you come some day and stay with me?"
25971Will you do me the honour of going for a drive with me?"
25971Will you have it?"
25971Will you look at it?"
25971Will you really let me save you?"
25971Will you?
25971Will you?"
25971With_ those_ feet?"
25971Wot do you say to that, Mrs. Smoker, old girl?"
25971Wot else is it?
25971Wot else_ is_ it, when''E shuts''imself up with''is writin''all day long and''alf the night, and she a- settin''and a- frettin''?"
25971Would he care to take it?
25971Would he?
25971Would n''t any other hairless little dog have done as well?"
25971Would n''t you have given him what he wanted?"
25971Would n''t you love to have him for your very own?"
25971Would this, after all, be possible?
25971Would you like me better if I did n''t?"
25971Would you love me if my hair came off?"
25971You can contemplate it''s going smash?"
25971You could buy him out, you could buy out the whole lot of them if you had the money; but, if you had n''t, where were you?
25971You did n''t want me to get ill, did you?"
25971You do n''t suppose she''s thinking of_ us_?"
25971You do n''t think me a parvenu, do you?"
25971You do n''t want her to die of an unhappy passion for a besom?"
25971You had only to say to Mr. Gunning,"Is n''t that so?"
25971You have n''t lost it through me?"
25971You know Nina?"
25971You live alone?"
25971You remember Miss Kentish at Hampstead?"
25971You shall go-- I say, supposing you go for a drive with me?"
25971You''ll stay?"
25971Your divine genius?"
25971[ Illustration: She had wrung it from him, the thing that six days ago he had come to her to say]"How do you know?
25971[ Illustration:"And he,"she said,"has still a chance if-- I fail you?"]
25971[ Illustration:"Why do you talk about my heart?"]
25971_ That''s_ why you care for me?"
25971he cried;"have you got such a thing as a band- box?"
25971she replied placably,"when it was the foundation of our delightful friendship?"
