27881no, we do n''t spoil sport; do we, Zelphine?"
37180And is not the coast very dangerous?
37180And when there is a wreck?
37180And why have you kept it in that state instead of washing it? 37180 Are there not wrecks sometimes along those reefs we see there?"
37180Are they pearls of my mother- in- law''s?
37180Are you quite sure?
37180Fie, fie,he cried, striking that horrid relic out of his brother''s hand,"are these fit sights for a lady, you hog, Simon?"
37180Hundreds and thousands of years ago?
37180It is too cold for you here,he said very tenderly after a moment,"had you not better go back to your rooms?"
37180Well, my dear?
37180What do you mean, Davies?
37180What do you say to that?
37180What has the sea- wall to do with my illness? 37180 Where have you seen drowned people, Penelope?"
37180Where is Davies? 37180 Where is she going, do you know?"
37180Why do you suspect these pearls of coming from the sea?
37180Would it not be worth while to break through such a habit,I asked,"to have a physician here at the proper time?
37180You are sure Davies is safe?
37180*****"Eustace,"I asked,"how did it begin?
37180And even the shameful question, asked with burning cheeks,"Did you know all?"
37180And if you were not spying for their benefit, why were you watching me as I came up the glen the day I was taken ill?
37180Are n''t you glad?
37180Are we not together, quite together, and together for always?"
37180At the turn of the road?
37180But Eustace, why should not our child be born in your house and mine?"
37180But I loosened your hands and kissed them one by one, and said,"Nay, Eustace, why should you grieve?
37180But have I been perfectly loyal in hiding my wonder, my disappointment, my sorrow?
37180But how elude the vigilance of our gaolers and overcome the obstacles they had built up around us?
37180But what to do?
37180But why have I recourse to such explanations?
37180But why have remained here?
37180Did I dream-- or did you find me lying by the fountain on the terrace-- the fountain of your poor water snake?"
37180Did he or did he not know?
37180Did it ever happen?
37180Did you-- was it picked up then or only now?
37180Do we not love each other?
37180Do you remember when I proposed sending you to Bath for our child''s birth?
37180Does he know yet?
37180Good God, is my husband a mere pensioner of all this hideousness, as his wretched brother seems to have been?
37180Had his suspicion been awakened?
37180Has any man been such a man in his gentleness and humility?
37180Have I a right to it?
37180Have you not learned your Catechism, my dear?
37180He sighed deeply,"A bishop?
37180I asked,"do your uncles go out to save the poor people with those boats?"
37180I cried,"do n''t you care?
37180I knew what she meant-- for are not my own thoughts for ever going over that same ground?
37180Indeed, may it not be that in taking away our child while yet unborn He did so in His mercy to it and to its wretched parents?
37180Is he our fellow- victim or the ringleader of this usurping gang of ruffians?
37180Is that hideous thing true?
37180Is that it?"
37180No one except-- except that dead man?"
37180Not in the house, at least, there is no one in the house?
37180On hearing the door open he started to his feet and cried in a terrible voice"What do you want with me?"
37180Only one evil chance remained, and that we none of us dared to mention: what if Hubert, as is sometimes the case, should stay behind?
37180Or is some shred of nightmare returning ever and again out of the black depths of my sickness?
37180Salvat''s?"
37180Shall I ever know whether it really happened?
37180Was Eustace there?
37180Was he ailing?
37180Was he detained on business?
37180Was it a coincidence; or had he overheard us appoint it as a signal, and was he mocking and torturing Eustace as well as me?
37180Was it a desire to threaten, a stupid, taunting spirit, or the reckless frankness of one who thought herself doomed?
37180Were ever those small words spoken so greatly?
37180What do you mean, dear Lady Brandling?"
37180What has befallen Eustace?
37180What made me say those last words?
37180Where shall I begin?
37180Why did I not recognise that your soul was strong enough to bear the truth?
37180Why do you talk only of plans and difficulties?
37180Why do you want to send me away, to leave me all alone when our child is born?"
37180Why should I believe one word of what you tell me?"
37180Why should I believe that you are with_ me_, and against_ them_?"
37180Why should I believe that you have really changed so completely?
37180_ I suppose some one else found it?
37180he asks insolently, and the notes seemed to ooze out from under his fingers,"have I got the tune right?
37180he cries--"is she gone?"
37180he said,"what is the matter?"
37180is it so?"
21455Are you going to send a boat?
21455Are you going, you villains?
21455Are you quite sure that you did not run away?
21455But whereabouts on the ground?
21455Ca n''t I have a little milk?
21455Ca n''t you find a shirt and a pair of trousers for the poor fellow?
21455Ca n''t you get any of your friends to go also? 21455 Can you swear this is the keg you took from the prisoner?"
21455Could n''t you get Sir Reginald to advance the money?
21455Could they have set the place on fire?
21455Do n''t you wish you may get it?
21455Do you bring any message for him? 21455 Do you feel better?"
21455Do you know you are whitened all over?
21455Has no one a further proposal to make?
21455Has no one any opinion to offer?
21455Has no one else an opinion to give?
21455Has your ship gone to the bottom?
21455Have n''t I?
21455Have they not been retaken?
21455Have you examined the keg, men,said the squire,"to ascertain if it contains spirits?"
21455Have you got far to go home?
21455Hillo, youngster, where are you going to?
21455How did you get up there?
21455I axes you, Captain Longfleet, whether you think this ere stuff is fit food for British seamen?
21455I say, Mr Riddle, were you ever shipwrecked?
21455I wonder what was the matter with Burden?
21455If it were not for young Cheveley, where should we be by this time, Captain Longfleet?
21455If, as I before observed, we were to kill the captain, officers, and crew, what''s to become of the ship without any one to navigate her? 21455 Is there any other case before me?"
21455Is this the young stowaway, Mr Huggins?
21455No, I do n''t think I ever saw you before,he answered;"but how do you happen to know my name?"
21455None of you young gentlemen have ever been to sea, I suppose?
21455Now where have you been all this time?
21455Oh, Master Cheveley, what did bring you aboard?
21455Out of your pay, Dick?
21455Please, sir,I said,"could you tell me where that ship is going to?"
21455Said Joe to Toney,` What are you doing in these''ere parts, old Ship?'' 21455 Shall we trust the young rascal?"
21455Well, Mr Jack Cope, what have you to say for yourself to induce me to refrain from making out a warrant to commit you to gaol?
21455Well, boy, what do you want?
21455What about Nero and Pincher?
21455What are you going to do with me?
21455What business had he to stow himself away, and make us all fancy that a ghost was haunting the ship?
21455What business had you to come aboard, boy, without leave?
21455What business had you to go to trouble Sir Reginald about that young scapegrace Riddle?
21455What can have made all that row?
21455What have I done, sir?
21455What is your name?
21455What ship do you belong to?
21455What ship is that? 21455 What ship is that?"
21455What will become of them, Brother Doublechops?
21455What''s all this about? 21455 What''s that you''re talking about, you mutinous rascals?"
21455What''s this about, you young rascal?
21455Where are you bound for, youngster?
21455Where did you come from, and for what port are you bound?
21455Where have you been, Master Dick?
21455Where you been all dis time, Dick?
21455Whereabouts were you sleeping?
21455Who are you, youngster?
21455Who are you?
21455Who are you?
21455Who have you got with you, my son?
21455Who is it from?
21455Who would have thought of finding you, Dick, all alone by yourself out on yonder rock?
21455Who''s that?
21455Who''s to take the ship round Cape Horn, if we do away with the officers?
21455Whom have you got here?
21455Why, Jack, I do believe it''s a boy,exclaimed a fourth;"we must get him up whatever he is, but how could he have come there?"
21455Why, my lad, who are you, and how came you here?
21455Why, what can that be?
21455Why, who are you? 21455 Why, youngster, how did you come aboard here?
21455Would you like to make some blocks? 21455 You contrived to live down in the hold in an extraordinary manner-- how did you manage it?"
21455You think Liverpool a very fine place?
21455` Are you going to join or are you not?'' 21455 ` Are you hungry, my man?''
21455` Come, my man, are you ready for your grub?'' 21455 ` This seems a curious job,''he said to himself;` have they taken me for a bale of goods and hove me down here to stay till they discharge cargo?''
21455` Who are you?'' 21455 And so you wish to become a second Nelson?
21455And this is John Cheveley''s boy, is he?
21455And what about the terrier?
21455And yet it must be; and are you really Dick Cheveley?"
21455Are you a good hand at figuring?
21455At last he said--"To what did Sir Reginald allude when he talked of your connexion with young Riddle?"
21455But how was I to get to sea?
21455But then the thought occurred to me, will the door be closed so that I shall be unable to open it?
21455Ca n''t you swim, master?"
21455Could it be possible that they intended to leave me here to perish by hunger?
21455Desert your family and me, your affectionate aunt, and the kind friend who so generously consents to become your patron from the regard he has for me?
21455Did I not mistake what you said?
21455Do n''t you hear me?
21455Do n''t you know me, Dick?"
21455Do you happen to know what a midshipman''s half- pay is?
21455Do you mean Mark Riddle?"
21455Do you recognise them?"
21455Do you want another dose of this rope?"
21455He made further inquiries about how I had been found, and asked the men whether they had before known of my being on board?
21455How did you know I wanted to get into the boat?"
21455How have you got into this plight?
21455How many days out?"
21455Hungry as I was I could not help exclaiming,"What, do n''t you know me, Mark?"
21455I was about to follow the latter course, when I heard the captain''s voice shouting,"Halloa, youngster, where on earth do you come from?"
21455I wonder whether the captain would like me as a midshipman?
21455I''ve just to ask you, Aunt Deb, what England would be without her navy, and what the navy would be unless boys were allowed to go into it?"
21455If I did so, what hope could I have of escaping?
21455If he would promise not to poach again, will it not be kind to let him off?"
21455In case of your father''s death, what would become of you all?
21455Is it not so?"
21455Is it not?"
21455Is that it?"
21455Is there no other way in?"
21455It had probably stood many a storm, but would it stand fast now?
21455My lad?
21455Oh, Aunt Deb, do tell me is she really dead?"
21455On getting up with me, he inquired,"What made you try to run off?
21455Putting up my hand, I felt a beam above my head; could it be one of the rafters, or the roof?
21455Shall we heave him over the cliffs, or what shall we do with him, mates?"
21455Should I be discovered?
21455Should I make a signal, and try to attract the attention of those on board?
21455So, brother rats, is not mine a bright idea, a grand idea, a superb idea?
21455Still, what other chance had I to get to sea?
21455Suddenly the idea seized me, should I stow myself away on board, and not appear until the ship had sailed out to sea?
21455Suppose just for one moment that we should succeed, and that we should put to death every human being on board, what would become of the ship?
21455Tell me what?
21455The act would be too diabolical for the worst of wretches to think of, and yet what other reason could they have for shutting me up in such a place?
21455The question, however, was, when would any one come down?
21455To throw away the brilliant prospects which through my means have been opened out to you?
21455What became of the rest of the crew, and the men engaged in landing the cargo?"
21455What do you say, John?"
21455What has happened?"
21455What if the pickles and biscuits had shared the same fate?
21455What if the ship should prove to be a pirate, instead of an honest trader?
21455What is your name, prisoner?"
21455What''s that?"
21455What''s your name?"
21455When are you going to finish off the mounseers?''
21455When the water rushes in, what will become of us?
21455Where do you come from?
21455Where have you been ever since we sailed from the Mersey?"
21455Where have you been?
21455Who are you?''
21455Who will second me?"
21455Why should we not do so through whole planks?
21455Will any one come to take me out of this place?
21455Will you promise to keep quiet?"
21455Would the captain take me without further introduction, if I should offer myself?
21455Would they have any suspicion of what had become of me?
21455Would you mind coming with me?"
21455You are pleased with your excellent prospects in his office, I hope?"
21455Youngster; what made you try to get away from us?"
21455inquired a rough, surly- looking old seaman, who was handling a large case?
21455shouted father,` what business have you here?''
39340''Course he did; why should n''t he? 39340 ''Tain''t Christmas, what''s the horrid row?
39340A little bit of chicken and bread- sauce done with broiled bacon-- at least I think so, dear-- why do you ask?
39340An''nen I says,''How can I be dood? 39340 And how do you come to have them all?"
39340And what did you buy with your half- crown?
39340And what do they yub on them when they do n''t fight bravely?
39340And what is his name?
39340And who may the young gentleman be?
39340And who may you be, little boy?
39340And why not?
39340And why?
39340And you know I remembered last night when I was lying awake that Catherine would have done this----"What Catherine?
39340Anybody might have seen you, and then what would they think?
39340Are you afraid?
39340Are you catching cold with the draught, Hugh John?
39340Are you not coming?
39340But did you ever hear such rot?
39340But look here, how are we to get back Donald unless we split? 39340 But suppose, father, that there was some one always there to see that they did behave, would you mind?"
39340But tell me, Toady Lion,she went on,"does Hugh John like going to church, and being washed, and things?"
39340But you won''t-- will you, dear Toady Lion?
39340But,said Prissy,"perhaps you forgot that a soft answer turneth away wrath?"
39340By the way, what is your name? 39340 Can I have the biggest and nicerest saucer of the scrapings of the preserving- pan to- night?"
39340Could n''t you say it now?
39340Course I would,agreed his officer,"do n''t you know that''s what generals are for?"
39340Course she does,sneered Napoleon;"think she''s out screeching like that for fun?
39340Did I not tell you not to go to the orchard?
39340Did n''t the fool ride a horse?
39340Did you call names at my mother?
39340Did you strike this boy to- day in front of his mother''s gate?
39340Did''oo find the funny fing behind the stable, Hugh John?
39340Do field- marshals_ all_ smell like that?
39340Do get me some mustard, Janet,he said, swinging his wet legs;"and where on earth have you put the pickles?"
39340Do n''t you know that''s the stuff they rub on the wounded when they have fought bravely? 39340 Do n''t you think the town''s people would if you gave them the sixpences all for themselves?"
39340Do n''t you think we should have the other children here?
39340Do n''t''oo know? 39340 Do you know me?"
39340Do you remember what you once made me say here, Cissy?
39340Do you take sugar?
39340Does Prissy have any of-- the missionary money?
39340Eh, what?
39340Father--she went a little nearer to him and stroked the cuff of his coat- sleeve--"does the land beyond the bridge belong to you?"
39340Father,she said at last,"you do n''t really want to keep people out of the castle altogether, do you?"
39340Get away out of my field, little boy-- where are you going? 39340 Go''way, Lepronia Lovell,"growled Billy;"do n''t you see that this is the young lady that cured my dog?"
39340Have you got a match- box?
39340Heavens and earth, Master Hugh-- what be you doing here? 39340 Hello,"cried Hugh John jovially,"at it already?"
39340How could you tell such a whopper? 39340 How different?"
39340I declare,she cried,"can you not give the poor little boy what he wants?
39340I say, Ashwell Major,he said,"about that Good Conduct Prize-- who are you going to vote for?"
39340Is n''t there something somewhere about helping the fatherless and the widow?
39340Is which? 39340 Jane,"he said to Mrs. Carter,"what does Cissy like most of all for supper?"
39340Just a little one to be going on with?
39340Just once?
39340Little girl,he said very gravely,"who has been putting all this into your head?
39340My wee man,she said,"what have they done to you?"
39340No, Prissy,he said wonderingly,"but what do you know about such things?"
39340No,said Toady Lion sadly;"do n''t you know?
39340Now speak up, Soulis,said General Smith;"I ask you would it be dasht- mean?"
39340Now, what''s all this?
39340One lump or two?
39340Say, chaps, did you hear her? 39340 So am I,"retorted Napoleon Smith sternly;"if I was n''t, do you think I would listen at all to your beastly old poetry?
39340Sodjers-- where?--what?
39340Sulky, hey?
39340Thank you,he said;"are you sure that the children are out?"
39340Then why does n''t_ it_ say so?
39340Then,answered Prissy,"would n''t it be all the nicer of you if you were to stop first?"
39340They ca n''t be at the castle all the time,said Billy;"why not let my mates and me go in before they get there?
39340This little boy wants to go on the island to find his brother,said the clergyman;"I suppose I may pass through your field with him?"
39340WILL YE SAY NOW THAT THE CASTLE IS YOUR FATHER''S?
39340Well, billies,he cried jovially,"what do you think?
39340Well, little girl, what is it? 39340 Well, sir, and what is this I hear?"
39340Well, what do you want?
39340Well, what is it? 39340 Well, what is the meaning of this?"
39340Well,said Cissy genially,"and what did you buy?"
39340Well?
39340Well?
39340What are n''t ready?
39340What are you going to do?
39340What did I tell you?
39340What did I understand you to say, little boy?
39340What in the world does he mean?
39340What is his other name?
39340What is it?
39340What is the matter with that boy? 39340 What now?"
39340What other?
39340What were you doing with my cannon?
39340What''s all this, I say-- you?
39340What''s that?
39340What''s this-- what''s this?
39340What''s''decision of character''when he''s at home?
39340When they what?
39340Where did you get all those nice new cannons? 39340 Who asked you to come here anyway to meddle with us?
39340Who found him?
39340Who''s afraid? 39340 Who''s touching your father?"
39340Who''s up there?
39340Who? 39340 Why did you tell the beak''s daughter your name, Bill, you blooming Johnny?"
39340Why do you want to go to the castle island?
39340Why is''oo so moppy?
39340Why, Hugh John,she cried,"have you really come?
39340Why, the same as his father of course, lass-- what else?
39340Wif my half- a- crown? 39340 Will_ you_ say''I love you, Cissy''?"
39340Yes, father; were you calling me, father?
39340You do n''t remember that either, I suppose?
39340You know that I did n''t come to spy or find out anything, do n''t you?
39340A rumble of wheels, a shout from the front door--"Hugh John-- wherever can that boy have got to?"
39340After all what save valour was worth living for?
39340After all, what did it matter about girls?
39340And he say,''What you doing there, little boy?
39340Are you sure there is no mistake?"
39340Besides, there are some dee- licious fruits which I have brought you; and if you will let me come in, I will make you some lovely tea?"
39340Besides, who''s to wash him first off, and him in a temper like that?"
39340But did General Napoleon stop to go to the schoolroom for clean ones?
39340But observing no gleam of fellow- feeling in his quondam comrade''s eyes, he added somewhat lamely,"I mean how do you do, Miss-- Miss Carter?"
39340But what use did they make of these god- like gifts?
39340By hokey, wo n''t I take this out of him with a wicket?
39340Could n''t he say grace?
39340Could there indeed be such dainties in the world?
39340Could this thing be?
39340Could''oo be dood wif all that sand in''oo trowsies?''
39340Did Sambo not wear a red coat?
39340Did n''t he remember the beginning?
39340Did they play with"real- real trains,"drawn by locomotives of shining brass?
39340Did ye think I was doon at Edam Cross?
39340Did you ever meet them at the tuck- shop down in the town buying fourteen cheese- cakes for a shilling, as any sensible person would?
39340Did you find it, or did some one give it to you?"
39340Did you think it was Blythe?"
39340Did''oo ever get sand in''oo trowsies, Cissy?"
39340Do n''t you see he is bashful before so many people?"
39340Do you hear-- you?"
39340Do you hear?"
39340Do you like to go to church?''
39340Do you take sugar in your tea?"
39340Does''oo fink so, Cissy?"
39340Drowned in the Edam Water-- killed by a chance blow in the great battle-- or simply hiding from fear of punishment and afraid to venture home?
39340For how could a Justice of the Peace and a future Member of Parliament demean himself to wink?
39340Had Mike or Peter?
39340Had Sammy Carter?
39340Has anybody told you to come to me about this?"
39340He owns the town, does he?
39340How do we know that you are n''t a spy?"
39340How much money had you, did you say?"
39340How were they to reach it?
39340Hugh John-- him?"
39340If that were Toady Lion''s attitude, how would it be with the enthusiastic Cissy Carter?
39340Is n''t it a beauty?
39340It would make him sick, Hugh John thought; but after all, what was a fellow to do?
39340May I sometimes, father?"
39340O- HO, JANE HOUSEMAID, WILL YOU TELL MY FATHER THE NEXT TIME I TAKE YOUR DUST SCOOP?"]
39340O- ho, Jane Housemaid, will you tell my father the next time I take your dust scoop out to the sand- hole to help dig trenches?
39340Of course he knew all about that, but would they join?
39340Oh, our father is the owner of this property, is he?
39340Oh, stone- broke,"laughed Cissy Carter, sitting down beside Toady Lion;"who taught you to say that word?"
39340Oh, the dear, dear lamb that he is; and will thae auld e''en never mair rest on his bonnie face?
39340Priscilla beamed gratefully upon her critic, and proceeded--"_ He rides him forth across the sand_----""Who rides whom?"
39340She turned away, calling over her shoulder to Cissy,"Can I tell your fortune, pretty lady?"
39340Smith?"
39340Smith?"
39340So no one contradicted him, and, indeed, who had a better right to know?
39340That was n''t fair, was it?"
39340There was yet another who rode in a mail- cart, and puckered up his face upon being addressed in a strange foreign language, as"Was- it- then?
39340There-- will that satisfy you?"
39340Thought you hurt, did n''t you?
39340Want to get knocked endways?"
39340Was Sambo not black?
39340Was n''t it nice of him?"
39340Were they not as gods, knowing good and evil?
39340Were they not rather on the side of the Smoutchies?
39340What are you doing there?"
39340What business have you in our castle?
39340What can I do for you?"
39340What did grown- ups know anyway?
39340What do ye want, callant, that ye deafen my auld lugs like that?
39340What does he want with that one too?"
39340What is it?
39340What is the matter, Arthur George?"
39340What then of Toady Lion?
39340What''s the matter, Grip?
39340What, then, could be clearer?
39340Whatever will I say to his faither when he comes hame?
39340Whatever will master say?"
39340When the dust finally cleared away, Peter was found sitting astride of Prince Michael, and shouting,"Are you the general- major, or am I?"
39340Where could he be?
39340Where ha''e ye been, and what ha''e ye done to these twa bairns?
39340Who else could have done that thing?
39340Who invited you into our parks?
39340Who is the youngest?"
39340Whom shall I ask for if you are not about to- morrow?"
39340Why ca n''t we all be nice together?
39340Why should not they against the son of that Smith and his allies?
39340Why should these glorious creations deign to notice him-- shining blades, shouldered arms, flashing bayonets, white pipe- clayed belts?
39340Why then plunder them now?
39340Will you allow me to conduct you across the policies by the shorter way?
39340Will''oo forgive me?"
39340Would it not be all right to split just to get Donald back?"
39340Would they never end?
39340You can have my ivory Prayer- book----""For keeps?"
39340[ Illustration:"''WASN''T IT SPLENDID?''"]
39340cried Prissy,"how could you?
39340ejaculated Hugh John, doubling his fist;"did you ever hear such rot?
39340he cried,"what''oo fink?
39340he demanded in his quick way--"Cissy and your son been fighting?"
39340roared his officer;"do n''t you know enough to salute when you speak to me?
39340said his chief;"who asked for your oar?
39340the herald angels sing, Glory to the new- born King, Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled._""What is''weconciled''?"
39340what have you been up to-- stealing apples, eh?
39340||||_ Subject._--"Is the Pen mightier than the Sword?"
13227And have you killed one yourself?
13227And is it very dangerous?
13227And our guests, mother-- why linger they still? 13227 And so thou hast we d a rebel, maiden?"
13227And what good is life to me if I take you at your word and fly this spot? 13227 And what good shall we reap from that?
13227And where is Gertrude? 13227 And wherefore should I spare you?
13227And why should thy life be loveless, Wendot?
13227Are both your parents dead, then?
13227Art regretting that thou leavest all for me?
13227Art thou a man, and claimest the blood of princes, and yet canst stoop to frighten an inoffensive child?
13227Art thou daring to raise thine arm against a child, a lady, and thy father''s guest? 13227 Arthyn-- where is she?
13227Brother, what ails thee?
13227But we need not tell him, need we?
13227Does it seem a sad thing to thee, Wendot? 13227 Dost not thou know?
13227Dynevor--did you say Dynevor? 13227 Gertrude?
13227Ha, Arthyn, is it thou, my child? 13227 Has he returned thither?"
13227How knowest thou that?
13227How long stays he, contaminating our pure air?
13227How now, malapert boy?
13227Howel, could she climb to the crag where we can look down upon the eyry if we helped her up the worst places?
13227I would fain see these youths; said you not they were but youths, Poleyn?
13227Is it a last farewell?
13227Is it thus you disgrace your manhood by falling upon the defenceless, and by brawling even within hearing of your sovereign? 13227 Is my father gone?"
13227Kill me not; what good would that do you or your cause? 13227 Llewelyn, Llewelyn, art mad?
13227Llewelyn? 13227 O Alphonso,"she cried,"did you do it on purpose?
13227Oh, who are you? 13227 Pardon?
13227Say, Gertrude, shall we tell Wendot on what we have set our hearts? 13227 Say, young man, wilt thou accept this charge, and be surety for these haughty youths?
13227Seest thou this deed? 13227 Shall I ever see this fair scene again?"
13227Take up arms against that false traitor- kinsman of mine? 13227 Think you I would we d one whose heart was given elsewhere?
13227Thinkest thou so? 13227 Thinkest thou that I will stand patiently by and hear such words?
13227Thinkest thou that such tempers as those will be easily controlled?
13227Wendot,whispered Joanna cautiously,"have you ever hunted a wolf in your mountains?"
13227Wenwynwyn, is it thou?
13227What can we do?
13227What is the matter, Wendot? 13227 What is your name?"
13227What knoweth our father of the matter? 13227 What means all this, Griffeth?"
13227What means this, boy?
13227What sayest thou? 13227 What think you of him, sweet Lady Gertrude?
13227Whence came they? 13227 Where are the other boys?"
13227Where is the maid, mother?
13227Who are these folks?
13227Who is the King of England that he should lay claim to our lands, our homage, our submission? 13227 You are not hurt, you are safe?"
13227You think he will? 13227 Young man,"he said,"I know not if thou hast any memory left of the words I spake to thee when last we met at Dynevor?"
13227-- does not thine own heart tell thee that one faithful heart beats for thee and thee alone?
13227Am I the first to bear the, news, or has it been known before?"
13227And Llewelyn and Howel, where are they?
13227And how came it that our father and our guest were with thee?
13227And how had he treated this act of painful submission?
13227And how long purpose they to stay?"
13227And how old are you, Wendot?"
13227And that will be almost the same as being married, will it not?
13227And what has raised this storm betwixt ye twain?"
13227And when did ever bold Welshmen fall upon unarmed strangers to smite with the sword?
13227And where are these gallant leaders?
13227And why have they thus presented themselves unarmed at Dynevor?
13227And why speakest thou of women and children?"
13227And you will never forget me, will you?"
13227Are there any more of you?
13227Are they not even now returning?
13227Are we not near in blood to Llewelyn of Wales, prince of the north?
13227Art thou, then, to be the one to break her heart, ay, and thine own, too, because thou art too proud to take more than thou canst give?
13227As for little Gertrude, she gazed up into the bold bright face of Wendot, and clasping his hand in hers, she said:"Am I to belong to you now?
13227Brother, why dost thou hesitate?
13227But could he do this?
13227But if she would have stood united against the foreign foe, thinkest thou they would ever have held back?
13227But tell me again, Lady Gertrude, what would be the penalty of such an act?
13227But tell me, have I been wrong?
13227But think you I love him less for his love to his country?
13227But what brings thee out so far from home?
13227But where are Llewelyn and Howel?
13227But why have we come so far to give up all the peril and the sport at the last moment?"
13227By what right are you here wringing our life blood from us?
13227Can we do nought to bring upon us an open war, which is a thousand times better than this treacherous, hollow peace?
13227Come these strangers from the north?
13227Could I have done other than I have?"
13227Could I leave my own brethren to languish in captivity, however honourable, when a word from me would free them?
13227Did Wendot know where they were?
13227Do not I know it?
13227Do we make war upon harmless travellers-- women and children?
13227Do you think when he has done so that he will come here and conquer you, too?"
13227Do you think you could walk along the ridge now, if I were to hold you up and help you?
13227Dost think that thou canst usurp his authority?
13227Doth not the tie of blood as well as the call of loyalty urge us to his side?
13227For is not Gertrude as our own sister in love?"
13227Had he not been born and bred at Dynevor?
13227Had not Wenwynwyn grown old in his father''s service?
13227Had they been here already, and had they carried off the prey?
13227Has she gone on to Iscennen to meet Llewelyn there?"
13227Hast not thou told me a hundred times that it would get me into trouble one of these days?
13227Hast thou broken away from his controlling hand?
13227Hast thou ever thought of such a thing?"
13227Hast thou not come to bid us draw the sword, and wrest our rightful inheritance from the hand of the spoiler and alien?"
13227Have I not lost all that makes life worth living?
13227Have I not seen thee with her times and again?
13227Have we not ever been brothers in all things?"
13227Have we not learned to love them for thy sake and their own?
13227Have we not proved it?
13227Have you any sisters?"
13227He had paid him homage for his lands: did that act bind him to obedience at all costs?
13227He would rise from his sickbed to find-- what?
13227How could I resist?
13227How couldst thou?"
13227How dare you thus insult me?
13227How did our parents receive them?
13227How many men canst thou summon to thy banner, and when can we be on the march for the south?
13227How shall I thank thee for the boon?"
13227How then can it be possible to trust you in the future?
13227How?"
13227If my spirit could not brook such control, how much less could theirs?"
13227If that were so, thinkest thou not that nought but open war would lie before us?"
13227Is he changed from what he was when last you saw him, ere the sickness had fastened upon him?"
13227Is it an errand of peace?
13227Is it meet that she should suffer so cruelly simply because her father has left her well endowed?
13227Is my father angry with them still?
13227Is not that so?"
13227It may be even yet-- for see, is not that bright sky, illumined by those quivering shafts of light athwart our path, an omen of good?
13227Knowest thou the king''s seal?
13227Llewelyn and Howel exchanged glances; and the former asked eagerly,"And the maid?"
13227Moreover, has he not given us a prince of our own, born upon Welsh soil, sprung of a kingly race?
13227Nothing can greatly hurt us now, for are we not one in bonds that no man may dissever?"
13227Now, therefore, he looked eagerly at his mother and said:"What is it he wishes to say Canst thou not tell me thyself?"
13227O Joanna, when shall it be?"
13227O Vychan, Vychan, have not I always said that thou shouldest live to call thyself Lord of Dynevor again?"
13227Or were they only on their way, and had he come in time to thwart their purpose yet?
13227Prince Alphonso, you are the king''s son; will you pardon Wendot his trespass, and stand his friend with your royal father?
13227Rememberest thou the Lady Arthyn, who was with us at Rhuddlan when thou wast there before?
13227Saw I not fear, distrust, and hatred in every line of that smooth face?
13227Say they not that the English tyrant is on our borders now, summoning him to pay the homage he repudiates with scorn?
13227Say, wilt thou still keep thy neck beneath the yoke, or wilt thou do battle like a warrior for liberty and independence?
13227Shall we men of Wales give right cause to the English to call us murderers, traitors, cowards?
13227Shall we repine at leaving the beauties of earth, when the pearly gates of Paradise are opening before our very eyes?
13227So you are a student as well as a soldier?
13227Spakest thou to him of Llewelyn and Howel?"
13227THE BROTHERS"What is that you dare to say?"
13227Tell me, boy, what can I do for thee when I tell this tale to my lord of England?
13227Tell us, has not that hour come?
13227The boy could have shouted aloud in his triumph and joy; but he held his peace, for who could tell what peril might not lie in the way?
13227Then how canst thou hold back, when thou hast confessed thine own love and learned that hers is thine?
13227There was something of sorrow and reproach in his glance as he said gently:"Griffeth, can it really be thou?
13227Think you that I have aught to reproach him with, when I know how he was forced into rebellion by others?
13227Think you that he is happy in the possession of what he sold his soul to gain?
13227Those are not hard names, are they?"
13227Thou hast no secrets for me which they may not hear?"
13227Thou wilt not be grieved to be left with us for a while, little one?
13227Thou wilt not forget me, Wendot?"
13227Thou wilt not pine in his absence?"
13227Understandest thou thus much?"
13227Was his word of honour in any wise pledged to Edward?
13227Was it greatly to be wondered at that their hearts burned with an unquenchable hatred?
13227Was it possible he had forgotten the half- pledge once given him?
13227Was not every son of Wales bound to his country''s cause at such a time?
13227Was that fear or shame or pride?"
13227We could do that, could we not, and come back with the young eaglets in our hands?
13227Wendot, why do you look like that?
13227Were you not all together?"
13227What are lands and gold to a woman if her lover share them not?
13227What better dost thou expect for thyself and thy lord than a lodging in the lowest dungeon of the keep?"
13227What boon hast thou to ask of him or of me?
13227What boy does not like the thought of being looked upon as his father''s substitute?
13227What has brought thee here alone and unannounced?
13227What have you done that we of Iscennen should look upon you as other than a bitter foe?
13227What is it thou fearest?
13227What is life to a man without honour?
13227What kuowest thou, Griffeth?"
13227What need of farther words?
13227What right hath she or any one besides to speak of that tyrant and usurper in such tones?"
13227What think you of this?
13227What thinkest thou of a troth plight with the little maid?"
13227What use is life to one so lonely and bereft?
13227When the party moved on again she stole up to Wendot''s side, and said as she glanced into his troubled face:"He did not mean it?
13227When was not Dynevor in the van when her country called on her?
13227Whence has come this bitter change in thy feelings?
13227Where are Llewelyn and Howell and what have they done with the maid?
13227Where can they have taken her so early?"
13227Where should I fly?
13227Who knows but that thou and she will not yet reign again in the halls of Dynevor?"
13227Who knows the way to his favourite haunts?
13227Who knows where the boys have gone this morning?
13227Why did not our good fellows fall upon them with the sword or drive them back the way they came?
13227Why do you get out that thing?
13227Why dost thou hesitate?
13227Why dost thou ponder still?
13227Why should I not stamp the miserable life out of you as you lie grovelling at my feet?
13227Why shouldst thou come forth with us?
13227Why were they received?
13227Why, does not he himself pay homage to the King of France for the lands he holds in his kingdom?"
13227Will he visit this rash deed upon my brother''s head?
13227Will the Prince of Dynevor be the man to bring ruin upon a noble cause, by banding with the alien oppressor against his own brethren?
13227Will you raise a tumult within hearing of his private apartments?
13227Wilt thou not heed that call?
13227Would he take care of her now, and bring her safe home?
13227Would it have been a sweet or a bitter thing to have felt himself pledged to a daughter of England?
13227Would you have me stain my name for the sake of saving my life?
13227You are not afraid?"
13227You are not going to fight?"
13227You will not take their lives, sweet sire?"
13227Your worthy wife will not refuse me, I trow?"
13227and what are their names?"
13227and what do they know?
13227and what is Wendot doing, who was to act as guardian toward his younger brethren?
13227and why didst thou hail us as if we were wanted?"
13227asked Wendot;"and whence come they?
13227come so quickly?
13227cried Wendot suddenly,"have I done wrong in this thing?
13227do n''t you know me?"
13227he will not do it again?"
13227is not that the sound of a horn?
13227or a series of petty feuds for supremacy, which went far to keep the land in a state of semi- barbarism?
13227or have they been punished and forgiven?"
13227said young Griffeth quickly;"is not our father lord of Dynevor?
13227what should I do?
13227what was that?
13227what was that?
13227why dost thou falter?
43126A boy,she exclaimed,"what kind of a boy?
43126And Ruby?
43126And did I plan to drown Mavis, my own darling little sister?
43126And have you never seen the beautiful lady again?
43126And how are we to go home?
43126And oh, Ruby, do look up at the sky-- isn''t it lovely? 43126 And sometimes you''d like to pat him to sleep, would n''t you?"
43126And the cross?
43126And what can I do to be able to see her? 43126 And what if it is the mermaids?"
43126And when I''m in bed, will you stay beside me, Mavis? 43126 And when you did wake up it was morning, I suppose, and it had all been a dream?"
43126And why did n''t you come back to me in the grotto? 43126 And you were n''t drowned, darling?
43126And you''ll tell us stories after tea, cousin Hortensia, wo n''t you?
43126And you''ll tell us stories, wo n''t you, dear good cousin?
43126And, oh Ruby,she said, as her sister and she were going slowly upstairs,"_ do n''t_ you wish we might sleep in the turret- room?"
43126And-- about Winfried?
43126Are little boats alive? 43126 Are n''t you sorry, Winfried, that you ca n''t stay here altogether?
43126Are you sure it''s safe?
43126Are you sure you can find your way? 43126 Are you sure you did n''t both fall asleep on the shore and dream it all?
43126Are you the fairy in the turret? 43126 Are you there?"
43126Are-- are you a mermaid, or a-- that other thing?
43126Bertrand is behind you, I suppose?
43126Bertrand,she said,"we are going to bed now; do you mind being left alone for the night?"
43126But do n''t you miss the sea things?
43126But if-- if-- they were to hurt or frighten old Adam or Winfried?
43126But might we really come to see your grandfather some day, do you think?
43126But the room looks dingy enough, does n''t it? 43126 But this weather can not last, and you are not cold at night, are you?"
43126But where''s the sea for it to sail on?
43126But wo n''t he miss you terribly?
43126But you can not see me? 43126 But-- they are rather frightening too, do n''t you think?"
43126Called,repeated Miss Hortensia,"why did n''t you_ go_?"
43126Can I?
43126Can it be father? 43126 Can-- can she have landed and dragged the boat ashore somehow?"
43126Could it have been she who put some on the terrace at the castle for us?
43126Could it have been true?
43126Dear princess,she went on,"could n''t you speak to her-- the way you do to me?
43126Did he come when baby was ill?
43126Did he get better?
43126Did n''t you say you and Mavis heard singing the day you were here before-- at the wizard''s cottage, I mean?
43126Did you know, Mavis, that he is going ever so far away? 43126 Did you speak, my dear?"
43126Did_ you_ make them?
43126Do n''t they just?
43126Do you keep the boat here, Winfried?
43126Do you know who he is?
43126Do you mean that Mavis may be drowned or drowning?
43126Do you mean you and me, Bertrand? 43126 Do you see anything?"
43126Do you see, Ruby,she said,"that all the flowers in this garden are our wild flowers, though they are such beauties?"
43126Do you think,she whispered,"do you think, Mavis, that he has seen_ her_, and that that''s it?"
43126Does he indeed?
43126Does she let you do whatever you like?
43126Hast thou seen that lordly castle, That castle by the sea? 43126 Have n''t you been dreadfully lonely without us all this time, dear cousin?"
43126Have you got it?
43126Have you lived here a long time, then?
43126How are we going?
43126How are you, Joan? 43126 How can I bear it?"
43126How can that be?
43126How did you come home, Ruby?
43126How did_ you_?
43126How is your gran different from others?
43126How many days ago was it?
43126I am sure you are very much obliged?
43126If you know so much about it, why do you keep teasing to have it told again?
43126Is it old Adam? 43126 Is it true that there''s something queer about him?"
43126Is n''t she stupid?
43126Is n''t the door locked?
43126Is she a lady, or-- or a fairy, or what is she, if she''s not a mermaid?
43126Is there a current hereabouts, Ruby?
43126Is there anything we can do for you, my poor boy?
43126Is there anything we can do for your grandfather?
43126Is this my own frock?
43126Is-- is she a mermaid?
43126It is n''t a bit slippery now, is it?
43126Mavis, Mavis,she called out every now and then,"are you there darling?
43126Mavis, dear little Mavis, Mavis darling, where are you?
43126Mavis, my dear, what is it? 43126 Mavis, why are you so cross?"
43126Mavis,said Ruby eagerly, pleased to find something to talk about,"have you heard about Winfried?
43126Mavis,said the soft yet clear and thrilling voice,"you see me, my child?"
43126Mavis,was the first word she whispered;"Mavis, are you alive?
43126May I go now, please?
43126May I tell cousin Hortensia?
43126May n''t I come to fetch the young ladies?
43126May we go up into the turret- rooms and everywhere?
43126My child,she said,"do they not_ know_ it would be wrong to do such a thing?"
43126My dear, are you very tired? 43126 My dear,"said Miss Hortensia,"do you know you have not taken off your cap yet?
43126My goodness, are you_ crying_?
43126No, it was n''t like that,said Mavis;"it was more like--""More like what?"
43126Now, let''s see-- where did Ruby say she''d left her cross? 43126 Oh, dear Princess Forget- me- not,"she said to her self,"why do n''t you make them see you, and understand how naughty they are?"
43126Oh, it''s you, is it?
43126Oh, these are out of your garden,said Ruby;"how do you manage to make them grow so well and so late in the year?"
43126Oh,said Ruby disappointed,"then we are to go home?"
43126Queer?
43126Really, Bertrand, my dear,began Miss Hortensia,"what have you brought that wet seaweed here for?
43126Ruby, how could you be so thoughtless? 43126 Ruby,"said a voice,"can you hear me?"
43126Shall we go into the house?
43126She told you the west turret was her own room, did n''t she? 43126 She_ will_ come, you''ll see,"said the boy,"and even if she does n''t, what does it matter?
43126Stop and listen-- hush-- there now, do you hear them ringing? 43126 Suppose the horrid things had bewitched the boat, is that any reason for not showing them up?
43126Then how could I stop them? 43126 Then why do n''t people like him?"
43126Then, where is she?
43126There now,said Bertrand, considerably surprised, to tell the truth, at his own success,"did n''t I tell you I could row?"
43126Try, Mavis, can you turn it?
43126Was it only_ this_ afternoon we went?
43126Was it the pain again?
43126Was our mother like us, Mr Adam?
43126We came out to catch them, did n''t we? 43126 We heard them-- don''t you remember?"
43126Well, here we are at the cove; what are we to do now?
43126Well, why do you laugh?
43126Well,said Ruby,"did you shut your eyes then, or what did you do?"
43126Were n''t you frightened?
43126Were you, dear?
43126What are you gaping at, Mavis?
43126What are you here for?
43126What are you so slow about?
43126What can be the matter with my eyes?
43126What do you mean by that?
43126What do you mean, Ruby?
43126What do you mean?
43126What do you say?
43126What does it matter about old rubbishing grandfathers and stuff like that?
43126What harm does it do?
43126What is it? 43126 What is it?"
43126What was that?
43126What will gran think?
43126What will they do now? 43126 What''s the matter with you?
43126What''s your name?
43126What''s, through there?
43126What?
43126What?
43126When is he coming?
43126Where is Winfried?
43126Which way shall we go?
43126Who can it be?
43126Who can that be?
43126Who could it be that spoke to me so strangely?
43126Who do you mean by` grandfather''?
43126Who ever told you she wore blue, Mavis?
43126Who showed it to you?
43126Who would have thought,said Mavis,"that we should ever be sorry to see him go?
43126Who''s there? 43126 Why ca n''t you give it me now?"
43126Why did n''t he? 43126 Why did n''t you ask me?
43126Why did n''t you come to the garden side? 43126 Why did n''t you come with us?"
43126Why not, pray?
43126Will you sit here?
43126Winfried, do you hear? 43126 You saw her?"
43126You speak as if there are no such things as mermaids; do you not think there are?
43126You will come to see us soon again, wo n''t you, Winfried?
43126You wo n''t, wo n''t you?
43126You''re not frightened of a little bit of the dark, are you? 43126 You''ve had no more headaches, I hope, Miss Mavis?
43126_ Are n''t_ they darlings? 43126 _ Can_ they?"
43126_ Me_ make you come, Ruby?
43126_ Now_,said Ruby, half triumphant and half frightened, in a whisper to Mavis,"now, can you say he''s not a wizard?
43126_ Oh_,he screamed;"_ oh_, what is it?
43126_ What_? 43126 A place where seaweeds and corals and all the loveliest sea things are taken care of, like the wild flowers here?
43126A soft whirr and rush-- where were they?
43126And Mavis, following his eyes, answered,"Yes-- there''s-- oh, there''s a little boat drifting in-- a tiny boat-- is it drifting?
43126And aloud she exclaimed:"My darling, where have you been?
43126And can they plan and feel?"
43126And the boy you met-- has he come to take care of the old man?"
43126And the first thought that flashed through the little girl was,"How could I bear her to look at me if I had been naughty?"
43126And were you afraid up there in the dark all by yourself?"
43126And what about Mavis?"
43126And what are you doing to my eyes?"
43126And what lovely blue ribbon my hair is tied with; and my hands are so white and clean Mavis, did the princess dress me while I was asleep?"
43126And where is Winfried?"
43126And why did you hide yourself up here, Bertrand, instead of coming to me?"
43126And, oh Ruby, is n''t it lovely to think that we may go sometimes to Forget- me- not Land?"
43126And-- oh, just look, Mavis, what a big fire he must have; do you see the red of it in the window?"
43126Are n''t you going to take us by the path between the rocks, down below the field?"
43126Are we out of the world?"
43126Are you both quite well?"
43126Are you not drowned, darling?
43126Are you sure it is n''t yours, Mavis?
43126Are you sure it will?"
43126At least;"and as she raised herself a little she looked round her doubtfully,"at least, not unless this is heaven?
43126At the kitchen- door, did you say, Ulrica?
43126BEGINNINGS?
43126Bertrand, do you think you can manage to get down to your own room?"
43126But is it your boat?"
43126But you wo n''t go far into them, will you, Bertrand?
43126Ca n''t you jump into the water and drag it back?"
43126Ca n''t you make her come to take it away?
43126Ca n''t you trust her to me?"
43126Can you find your way all down the stair alone, Mavis?
43126Did cousin Hortensia keep him for anything?"
43126Did n''t we come round by here, Mavis?"
43126Did you bring it, Winfried?
43126Did you ever hear of him, cousin?
43126Did you know, cousin, that there was a short way home from the sea- shore near old Adam''s cottage?
43126Do n''t you know there''s-- there''s a current hereabouts?"
43126Do n''t you know your mother is our father''s sister?"
43126Do n''t you love playing tricks on people-- people who set themselves up, you know, and preach at you?"
43126Do n''t you think we might run out and see?"
43126Do you know the old man who lives up there?"
43126Do you know who I am?"
43126Do you know, I believe I shall be a sailor too?
43126Do you think father will take me when I''m grown up, cousin Hortensia?"
43126Had Forget- me- not suddenly turned into the old woman who goes up to brush away the cobwebs in the sky?
43126Had she been asleep?
43126Had the fairy lady wrapped her round in her cloak of mist and flown with her to the castle?
43126Have you been working hard at your lessons?"
43126Have you got that boat of yours ready?"
43126Have you never seen her there?"
43126He''d like it; besides, you say yourself you think he''s a fairy boy, so why should he be afraid of fairies?"
43126Her talking was charming, her smile was bewitching, her grave sad looks were like solemn music-- what words have we left to describe her laugh?
43126How could they ever get up these stones?"
43126How do we get to the cottage?
43126How_ did_ you get back?"
43126I can fancy that,"he went on dreamily,"her eyes are a little like the sea, do n''t you think, Mavis?"
43126I may ask you, may I not?"
43126I mean to say, what would be the good of stopping them, if they know already it is wrong?"
43126I wish_ I_ could have got a cut at them-- what are horses for?"
43126I wonder how long he has lived here?"
43126I wonder if possibly I shall see her ever up here?
43126I wonder if she only comes in the night?
43126If so, how had she got home?
43126Is everything going wrong at the first trial?"
43126Is n''t it nonsense, cousin Hortensia?
43126Is n''t it_ very_ queer we never heard of that path before?"
43126Is n''t that a good name?
43126Is not that something to look forward to?
43126Is old Adam a wizard?"
43126Is the princess here?
43126It seemed a long time since Winfried told her and Ruby to wait for him in the grotto; and where was Ruby?
43126Listen,"and he drew her down to him,"do you think perhaps she''ll come again and take away the pain?
43126Look out to sea-- isn''t it splendid?"
43126Mavis, would you be glad for me to be a sailor?"
43126May n''t I go and speak to him, cousin?"
43126Much more interesting than the castle-- indeed, what would any castle or any house be without them?
43126Oh Mavis, will it ever go?
43126Oh dear princess, will you stop them?"
43126Oh, Mavis, Mavis, whatever shall I do?"
43126Oh, Ruby, you ca n''t say you like him?"
43126Oh, cousin Hortensia, we have had_ such_ adventures, and last of all, what_ do_ you think?
43126Oh, where has it gone to?"
43126Shall we put our fingers in our ears, Bertrand?"
43126She was a little girl then, and now she is quite old, and you look as young as-- as--""As who or what?"
43126She was dressed all in white, was n''t she?"
43126She was feeling tired-- and--_was_ it a dream?
43126She_ may_ have crept on shore, and be lying somewhere among those big stones; and if not, ca n''t your precious wizard friends look after her?
43126Some say he''s friends with the mermaids, and that they come to see him-- is that true?"
43126Surely she had been asleep-- for-- was she asleep still?
43126Then she said--"What is it you are afraid of Ruby doing-- Ruby and Bertrand?"
43126Then up, up-- dear, dear, where_ were_ they off to?
43126There now, did you ever look neater or nicer in your life?"
43126There, Ruby-- look-- there he comes; do you see him coming up that little hill?
43126Was it grandfather you meant when you said he was queer?"
43126Was it the reflection from the sky?
43126Well when am I to have something to eat?"
43126What are you looking for?"
43126What are you thinking of?"
43126What could it be?
43126What do you think has become of her?"
43126What is it all about?
43126What shall I do?
43126What were all the adventures you met with?"
43126What will they do?
43126What''s the matter, Ulrica?"
43126Where is he hurt?
43126Which way shall we go, Mavis?"
43126Who are you?
43126Who is it?"
43126Who knows when you may have such a chance again?"
43126Who''s there?
43126Why did she not come back?
43126Why did you, Joan?
43126Why do you repeat my words, and why do n''t you say` Miss,''or` My Lady?''
43126Why had she taken such a hatred to Winfried and his grandfather, especially since Bertrand''s arrival?
43126Will my eyes ever feel the same again?"
43126Would n''t you like to give your dear Winfried a posy of them?"
43126Would you, cousin Hortensia?"
43126You have n''t got any in the boat, I suppose?"
43126You should n''t have let me come out here, Ruby?"
43126You think it''s all your wonderful cleverness that got the boat round, do you, Mavis?"
43126You were wishing for wings-- isn''t this as good as wings?"
43126You wo n''t be tired will you, dear cousin?
43126` Are you a fairy?''
43126about his going to be a real sailor?"
43126ca n''t you answer?"
43126exclaimed Mavis, looking startled,"you do n''t mean that you are going to play him any tricks?"
43126exclaimed Miss Hortensia in surprise,"what does the child mean?"
43126said Ruby,"are we down below the world?
43126said Ruby,--and it must be allowed that goodness is a prettier word than rubbish,--"how in the world did that boat come here?
43126she exclaimed,"I''ve given you a toss up, have n''t I?
43126she exclaimed,"did you see it?
43126she exclaimed;"will it take us straight home?
43126what is it?"
43126who are you?"
10718A lot that would be useful to you, eh?
10718A remarkable discovery, eh?
10718A''?
10718Ah,laughed the old gentleman a trifle uneasily,"and so you''ve discovered the truth at last, eh?"
10718And I suppose he''s just as devoted to her as ever-- eh?
10718And am I to take it that you really do love me, after all?
10718And for ever, eh?
10718And he is your friend? 10718 And how are matters in Paris?"
10718And how does suspicion attach to the girl''s lover?
10718And if the girl really knows?
10718And is that the only reason you wish to meet me in secret?
10718And only you yourself suspect the truth?
10718And pray what is that?
10718And she broke the seals?
10718And suppose it were discovered?
10718And the girl?
10718And there are noises heard there the same as at Hetzendorf, you say?
10718And they''re gossiping as usual, eh?
10718And what about Walter?
10718And what is that?
10718And what is the future without money? 10718 And what need you fear when you have me as your friend?"
10718And what would the world say of me, her stepmother, if it were known that I had done such a thing?
10718And what''s occurring in Paris?
10718And when, pray, has it failed? 10718 And who, pray, Mr. Flockart, makes this allegation against my father?"
10718And yet you are not going to the ball, Gabrielle, eh?
10718And you still have the translations?
10718And you will dare to speak, and place yourself in a ridiculous position, you mean?
10718And you will do it?
10718Are not Flockart and mademoiselle also good friends?
10718At night what do you do with it?
10718But I wonder, Flockart, if I might take you at your word, and ask you to do me a favour? 10718 But can not a trap be laid to secure the thief before he approaches the people in Russia?"
10718But did you really hear them? 10718 But for your wife''s sake?"
10718But how are we to get money?
10718But how are you? 10718 But how can I act?"
10718But if he did, Walter, you would n''t believe him, would you?
10718But in a case like this, when you are worried and excited, as you are at this moment, why not confide in me and allow me to help you?
10718But in this case, how do you account for that report falling into the hands of the people in Athens? 10718 But the girl?"
10718But the match would be an advantageous one-- wouldn''t it?
10718But there is a legend which is supposed to account for them, is there not, dad? 10718 But we are not enemies-- I mean we will not be enemies as we have been, shall we?"
10718But what action of his can you fear? 10718 But what does it all mean?"
10718But what does she know? 10718 But what have you to fear, little one?"
10718But what is the secret, Sir Henry?
10718But what?
10718But while we keep Krail at arm''s length, as we are doing, what have we to fear?
10718But why are you so secret in all your actions?
10718But why do n''t you listen to reason, Gabrielle?
10718But why does Lady Heyburn go out of her way to throw cold water upon you and all your works?
10718But why should n''t I know?
10718But why should we meet in secret like this, when everybody knows of our engagement?
10718But why?
10718But you are not really going?
10718But you know-- I mean you''ve heard the legend, have n''t you?
10718But you''ll let me have the key of the cabinet, wo n''t you, dad?
10718But you''ve made inquiry?
10718But, after all, can not one very often trace the same legend through the folklore of various countries? 10718 But, my dear fellow,"exclaimed the blind man,"why do you suggest such a thing?"
10718By whom?
10718By whom?
10718Ca n''t you sing something in English, Gabrielle? 10718 Can you doubt of my great, great love for you?
10718Cotton, or steel, or soap, or some other domestic necessity, I suppose?
10718Could n''t we somehow watch and see where he hides the safe- key? 10718 Dad,"she cried suddenly,"do I not know all about your affairs already?
10718Dad,she faltered, advancing towards him and placing her soft, tender hand upon his shoulder,"wo n''t you listen to reason?
10718Did I not tell you often that, from her, we had all to fear?
10718Did anyone else hear them?
10718Did he express a wish to see me?
10718Do n''t my father and mother both know that we love each other? 10718 Do n''t you recollect our talk at your house in London two years ago, soon after you came back from school?
10718Do you actually refuse, then, to leave this dismal hole?
10718Do you allege, then, that Lady Heyburn is privy to all this?
10718Do you call placing me in peril nothing?
10718Do you deny that strange noises are heard there when there is so much evidence in the affirmative?
10718Do you know this neighbourhood?
10718Do you regret the end of that woman-- you know whom I mean?
10718Do you think I too am blind?
10718Does Walter really wish me to return?
10718Does she know I''m here?
10718Does the baron know?
10718Done?
10718Eh?
10718Examined them?
10718Fearless? 10718 Ford was very trustworthy, was he not?"
10718From what?
10718Gabrielle is at Glencardine, I suppose?
10718Gabrielle,he said in a low, intense voice,"why are n''t you open and frank with me as you once used to be?
10718Has any one actually heard them?
10718Has anyone else ever tried to glean information from you?
10718Has he brought back her ladyship?
10718Has no one else been able to open your safe and examine its contents?
10718Has she a lover?
10718Has she gone?
10718Have I not already told you that the reason I''m here is to crave your forgiveness? 10718 Have we not often discussed them?
10718Have you not often tried, and failed?
10718Have you the magnifying- glass, dear? 10718 He still believes in me, eh?"
10718He threatened you?
10718He told you that?
10718He wishes to see me?
10718Heyburn the blind man?
10718How are we to do it?
10718How can I tell you?
10718How can we tell? 10718 How can you prove that she knows nothing?"
10718How could I risk being ignominiously kicked out of Glencardine as a spy?
10718How could a poor devil like myself ever aspire to the hand of the daughter of the Baron de Hetzendorf? 10718 How did it happen?"
10718How did the girl manage to return to Glencardine?
10718How do you know he has n''t cleared himself of the suspicion? 10718 How do you know that the documents are stolen?"
10718How do you know that the scandal was started by her?
10718How do you know that your action the other night has not aroused her suspicions?
10718How do you know that?
10718How should I know?
10718How?
10718How?
10718I suppose he''s very wealthy?
10718I suppose they throw a good deal of light upon the history of the Grahams and the actions of the great Lord Glencardine?
10718I suppose you''ve already examined the ruins thoroughly, eh?
10718I wonder what he would say if he-- well, if he knew just a little of the truth, of what happened that day at Chantilly?
10718I''ve felt that was the case all along, yet I----"Yet what?
10718If he prefers the society of that chit of a girl of his to mine, how can I possibly help it? 10718 If you knew who it was who deliberately blinded you, why did n''t you prosecute him?"
10718If you really are bent upon providing the halfpenny newspapers with a fresh sensation, pray let me know in plenty of time, wo n''t you?
10718If-- if that man ever makes an allegation against me, you wo n''t believe him?
10718Is he still there?
10718Is it because I have annoyed you, that you perhaps think I am not keeping faith with you? 10718 Is it really the truth?"
10718Is it the truth?
10718Is she also your friend?
10718Is the matter so very serious, dad?
10718Is the mother wicked, then?
10718Is there anything concerning the mysterious fate of Cardinal Setoun within Glencardine?
10718May I dine with you, dad?
10718May not he be the instigator?
10718My dear Winnie,he said,"what''s the use of discussing such an old and threadbare theme?
10718My dear child, what do you mean? 10718 Not for Walter Murie''s sake?"
10718Not-- not if the charge he made against me was a terrible one-- a-- a disgraceful one?
10718Of course you are going?
10718Of what?
10718Oh, Flockart has been asking you, has he?
10718Oh, father, what are you saying?
10718Oh, he''s a mysterious person, is he?
10718Perhaps you''re disappointed over a new frock or something, eh?
10718Pray, what can he suspect?
10718Shall I put the casts into your collection, dad?
10718Shall we try?
10718She defied you-- eh?
10718So you defy me to speak?
10718Suppose I had, in retaliation, spoken the truth?
10718Surely it could not have placed either of you in any greater danger than you are in already?
10718Surely my own daughter can not be my enemy?
10718Surely you can repose confidence in me?
10718Surely your English laws do not allow thieves to go unpunished? 10718 Suspect what?"
10718Tell me, Walter,he said at last,"what kind of place is Glencardine Castle?
10718Tell me, child, what is troubling you?
10718Tell me, child,repeated Sir Henry at length,"what was it that upset you just now?"
10718Tell me,she urged anxiously,"what did he say concerning myself?"
10718The Baron transacts his business there, eh?
10718The Whispers-- eh, Goslin?
10718The clerks will speak, wo n''t they?
10718The truth about what?
10718Then I''m to understand that you refuse my proffered assistance?
10718Then how are we to make the_ coup_?
10718Then how do you now intend to act?
10718Then meetings of Frohnmeyer, Volkonski, and the rest were held here in secret sometimes?
10718Then other people have heard them, eh?
10718Then popular superstition points to the fact that anyone who accidentally acts as eavesdropper is doomed to death, eh? 10718 Then there is no little boy suffering from scarlet- fever?"
10718Then they''re regarded as a bad omen to those who overhear them?
10718Then what is meant by my safe being open?
10718Then why did you make that deliberate attempt upon my life at Fotheringhay?
10718Then why did you write breaking off your engagement?
10718Then why do you treat me like this?
10718Then why not apply for a warrant for his arrest?
10718Then you have enemies?
10718Then you know Sir Henry well?
10718Then you really intend to act vindictively?
10718Then, as far as you are aware, nobody has ever had possession of your key-- not even mademoiselle your daughter?
10718Then, what is the cause?
10718There are stories about her, eh?
10718Therefore, why discuss it?
10718To whom do you allege I have exposed your affairs?
10718Until what?
10718Was his name Edgar Hamilton-- my friend?
10718Was she pretty?
10718Was that not injudicious? 10718 Was the revelation of your financial dealings made in Paris, do you know?"
10718We have been betrayed, eh? 10718 We shall, I fear, never make it, unless----""Unless what?"
10718We were just about to look at those seals Professor Moyes sent you to- day, were n''t we? 10718 Well, my dear Krail,"exclaimed Flockart, after they had shaken hands and stood together leaning upon the sea- wall,"you got my wire in Huntingdon?
10718Well, suppose the worst happened, and it were discovered?
10718Well, they do n''t; so why worry your head, dear, over a mere fable? 10718 Well, what has happened?
10718Well, what''s to be done?
10718Well, you do n''t imagine I should be such a fool as to admit that what you said was true, do you?
10718Well,he asked defiantly, a few moments later, seeing that she had not moved,"are n''t you going?"
10718Well,she asked at last, stirring uneasily in her chair,"and suppose we are not able to raise the money, what do you anticipate will be the result?"
10718Well,she inquired at last in a blank voice,"and who are those others who, you believe, would be prepared to denounce me?"
10718Well,she laughed,"I must therefore content myself with the originals, eh?
10718Well?
10718What about the girl? 10718 What are they like?"
10718What are you doing there, examining my father''s papers?
10718What can this secret meeting mean? 10718 What caused you to suspect?"
10718What could it really mean?
10718What do you make it out to be, dad?
10718What do you mean by the source of dad''s income not being an honourable one?
10718What do you mean? 10718 What do you mean?"
10718What do you mean?
10718What do you mean?
10718What do you mean?
10718What do you mean?
10718What does that matter? 10718 What does the girl do?"
10718What does this mean?
10718What fool was it who, keeping him under surveillance, allowed him to slip from Paris?
10718What has happened?
10718What has this question-- whatever it is-- to do with you? 10718 What have you decided?"
10718What have you discovered concerning him?
10718What is that you say?
10718What is this man saying, dearest?
10718What reason? 10718 What theory?
10718What was their motive?
10718What will he say?
10718What will he think of me when he gets my letter? 10718 What work?"
10718What would Walter think if you elected to dine with me instead of meeting him at table?
10718What''s the matter with you to- day, darling?
10718What''s the use of beating about the bush?
10718What''s your decision regarding the girl?
10718What, dad?
10718What,gasped Lady Heyburn''s friend, his cheeks paling in an instant,"have you been so indiscreet as to inform the police?"
10718What?
10718Whatever you have to say may surely be said in the hearing of a third person?
10718When will his extraordinary energies be suppressed? 10718 Where is he?"
10718Where is my wife?
10718Who has heard them besides myself?
10718Who has not?
10718Who is the owner of Glencardine?
10718Who seeks your downfall, dad?
10718Who''s been trying to frighten you?
10718Whom do you fear?
10718Why are you prying into my affairs?
10718Why do n''t you tell me the truth?
10718Why do n''t you tell me?
10718Why do you ask that?
10718Why do you come here to taunt me like this?
10718Why do you say misfortune?
10718Why do you taunt me like this? 10718 Why have you obtained a key to it?"
10718Why need we speak of him?
10718Why not, dad?
10718Why not?
10718Why should I?
10718Why tell me such a lie?
10718Why worry, my dear Walter? 10718 Why, dear dad, how is it you''re sitting here all alone?
10718Why, what do you mean? 10718 Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Wo n''t you be more explicit? 10718 Yes, but how long can we keep him at arm''s length?"
10718Yes, strange, is n''t it, how two men may drift apart for years, and then suddenly meet in a club, as we have done, Murie?
10718Yes,he said at length,"I suppose the standard of honesty in business is nowadays just about as low as it can possibly be, eh?
10718Yes; but the flowers were a bit expensive, were n''t they?
10718You and your lover have formed another clever plot, eh? 10718 You apparently know this man, dad?"
10718You believe him to be your friend? 10718 You believe that I dare not-- dare not for my own sake, eh?"
10718You believe that Macdonald is dishonest, eh?
10718You dare now, eh?
10718You do n''t think that our friend Flockart had anything to do with the affair?
10718You have no suspicion that any other man may have committed the theft-- that fellow Flockart, for instance? 10718 You live always in Budapest, I suppose?"
10718You love me, do you not?
10718You mean the apparition of the Lady in Green, and all that?
10718You think that I will still remain in this accursed bondage of yours?
10718You threaten me, then?
10718You told him nothing?
10718You want a wash, eh?
10718You would prefer, then, that I should go up to my father and explain all I have seen?
10718You would tell the truth and-- and denounce me?
10718You''ll make nice excuses for me, wo n''t you?
10718You''ve had a letter from the old man, eh?
10718You''ve surely had time to think over it?
10718You-- you intend to give me into custody? 10718 _ Madonna mia!_"he cried, raising his face to the Frenchman,"why, what has happened?
10718_ Per Bacco!_ she''s not going to be such an idiot, surely?
10718_ She shall not!_"How, pray, can you close her mouth?
10718''Gabrielle,''she said,''what have you done?
10718A little box came this morning from the Professor, did n''t it?"
10718A woman can surely have a male friend without being subject to hostile and venomous criticism?"
10718After the usual conventionalities about the weather, he said,"I suppose you do n''t have very many strangers in Woodnewton, eh?"
10718Ah, shall I ever rid myself of the memory of that fatal afternoon?"
10718Am I not your friend?"
10718Am I right?"
10718And then-- then, what will he believe?
10718And yet was not the barrier between them insurmountable?
10718And yet was she not his most devoted-- nay, his only-- friend?
10718And, if so, did he know him?
10718Are you sure they were not imagination?
10718At one moment she believed in her lover''s strong, passionate devotion to her, for had she not seen it displayed in a hundred different ways?
10718Ay, what then?
10718Besides, what if Flockart spoke?
10718Besides, why should we wait?
10718But I wonder if it really does solve the mystery of the Whispers?"
10718But buried as you are down here instead, what chances have you?"
10718But by whom?
10718But by whom?"
10718But how could I avoid it?"
10718But now, having heard them with my own ears, how can I have further doubt?"
10718But was it worth while?
10718But what charge could he bring against you?
10718But where was Walter?
10718But will you not forgive mademoiselle?"
10718CHAPTER XX TELLS OF FLOCKART''S TRIUMPH"What are you doing here at this hour?"
10718CHAPTER XXVIII THE WHISPERS AGAIN Was it really true what Flockart had told her?
10718CHAPTER XXXIV SURPRISES MR. FLOCKART"Well, you and your friend Felix have placed me in a very pleasant position, have n''t you?"
10718CHAPTER XXXIX CONTAINS THE CONCLUSION THE HOUSE OF WHISPERS CHAPTER I THE LAIRD OF GLENCARDINE"Why, what''s the matter, child?
10718Can not you believe me, your daughter, before this man who is your enemy?"
10718Could she tell him an untruth?
10718Did Walter actually wish to see her again?
10718Did he intend to convey any hidden meaning?
10718Did he, too, believe in the fatal omen, though he was trying to mislead her and poke fun at the local superstition?
10718Disengaging herself, she rose to her feet, and, after a pause, asked,"What reply shall I send to the report, dad?"
10718Do I not act as your secretary?
10718Do they throw any further light upon the secret agreement in 1644 between the great Marquess of Glencardine, whose home was here, and King Charles?"
10718Do you agree?"
10718Do you deny that?"
10718Do you deny writing that letter?
10718Do you know the place?"
10718Do you know the place?"
10718Do you recollect how I spread a rug for her at that spot and preferred myself to stand?
10718Do you remember what Zarathustra says:''Verily, ye could wear no better masks, ye present- day men, than your own faces,''Who could recognise you?"
10718Do you remember what you then told me?"
10718Does she ever question you regarding them?"
10718For that reason, if for none other, is it not better for us to be friends?"
10718For what purpose was the place used, and by whom?
10718Gabrielle, dear, where are you?
10718Had Flockart spoken the truth?
10718Had he seen Krail?
10718Had mademoiselle''s lover had a hand in that revelation?
10718Had not Sister Marguerite always taught her to beseech the Almighty''s aid when in doubt or when in trouble?
10718Had she overheard any of that serious conversation between Lady Heyburn and himself while they walked together in the glen on the previous evening?
10718Hamilton?"
10718Has Miss Heyburn mentioned the man Krail?"
10718Has any girl ever loved a man better than I love Walter?"
10718Has n''t your father ever told you?"
10718Have I not always taken the most extraordinary precautions?"
10718Have I not kept eyes and ears open, and told you of all I have seen and learnt?
10718Have we not arranged a code in order to prevent her from satisfying her woman''s natural inquisitiveness?"
10718Have you ever heard any story concerning their origin?"
10718Have you heard from mademoiselle lately?"
10718He does not even speak of them to his wife; therefore why should strangers evince any interest in them?"
10718He started quickly at her words, and asked,"What do you know about them, dear?
10718Her father started, and raising his expressionless face to hers, asked in almost a snappish tone,"Well, and who has heard them now, pray?"
10718Her response was cold, for was not all her present unhappiness due to him?
10718How are things up at Glencardine?"
10718How are we to avert it?"
10718How can you ask me that question?
10718How can you ask such a question?
10718How could he tell her all that he had heard?
10718How could she tell her father-- the kindly but afflicted man to whom she was devoted-- the bitter truth?
10718How should she act?
10718How should she act?
10718How, indeed, could he know?
10718How?"
10718How?"
10718I could n''t afford to be found prying into the old man''s papers, could I?
10718I hope you have n''t heard them?"
10718I know that you would never willingly betray me to my enemies; but----""Well, but what?"
10718I ought now to have a revolver and threaten you, and then this scene would be complete for the stage-- wouldn''t it?
10718I suppose you fell in love with her, and all that, eh?"
10718I wonder where it has been found?
10718If he asked her point- blank, what could she reply?
10718If she dare, why did she not tell the truth about the safe?"
10718If she did, what then?
10718If she wrote, would it lower her dignity in her lover''s eyes?
10718In order to save her father, should she sacrifice herself-- sacrifice her own life?
10718Is he not over head and ears in love with you?
10718Is it an honest one?"
10718Is it not Tacitus who says,''_ Sua cuique vita obscura est_''?"
10718Is it really worth troubling over?
10718Is it your place to stand between father and daughter?"
10718Is it?
10718Is there much patina upon it?"
10718Is-- is the secret out?"
10718Just serve a snack here for me, will you?"
10718Now, do you believe in ghosts, you man- of- the- world that you are, my dear Felix?"
10718Now, what is it?
10718Or will you still remain buried here?"
10718Shall I open it?"
10718She regretted, yet what was the use of regret?
10718She smiled, with a frantic effort at unconcern, saying,"And what harm, pray, would they have done me, even if I had?"
10718Should she write to Walter?
10718Should she write to him?
10718So what have you to fear?"
10718So why need we waste further words?"
10718Somebody in my own house?"
10718Surely it is not the place of a man to poke fun at his friend?"
10718Surely that''s sufficient guarantee of my friendship?"
10718Surely you can rely upon my secrecy?"
10718Tell me, Gabrielle, where is young Murie just at present?"
10718The Green Lady is Glencardine''s favourite spectre, is n''t she-- perfectly harmless, I mean?"
10718The man placed his hand on her shoulder, saying,"May we not be friends, Gabrielle?"
10718The name does n''t convey much to you, I suppose?"
10718The question was, to what use that secret chamber was put?
10718Then, when they neared the first thatched cottage at the entrance to the village, he halted, asking,"May we not now become friends, Gabrielle?
10718Therefore, why should she now make a secret of their meeting after twelve months''separation?
10718They had been boy and girl together; therefore what more natural than that they should be friends in later life?
10718Though I''m blind, do you consider me a fool?
10718Time had crept on without her heeding it, for what did time now matter to her?
10718To him, what was the benefit of that beautiful Perthshire castle which he had purchased from Lord Strathavon a year before his compulsory retirement?
10718To whom did he deliver it?"
10718Was her ladyship really trying to rid herself of his influence?
10718Was it actually true, as the countryfolk declared, that death overtook all those who overheard the counsels of the Evil One?
10718Was it merely a phenomenon caused by the wind blowing through some crack in the ponderous lichen- covered wall?
10718Was it not only too true, as Lady Heyburn had vaguely suggested a dozen times, that her mouth ought to be effectually sealed?
10718Was it not quite likely that, being Walter''s friend, Hamilton on his return to London would relate the exciting incident of the river?
10718Was it not remarkable that he, Walter''s old friend, should come down into that neighbourhood?
10718Was it one of the omens believed in by the superstitious?
10718Was it possible that her ears had deceived her?
10718Was it possible that the blind man had any suspicion of what was intended?
10718Was it the Lady of Glencardine-- the apparition of the hapless Lady Jane Glencardine?
10718Was it?
10718Was not her refusal to attend the ball perhaps due to some sudden pique or unpleasantness with her giddy stepmother?
10718Was she not calmly and coolly contemplating telling the truth and putting an end to her existence after saving her father''s honour?
10718Was she still his, as she had ever been, or was she playing him false?
10718Was this the Mr. Hamilton who had snatched her from that deadly peril?
10718We were agreed long ago that he is not a gentleman, were n''t we?"
10718Well, this very day I intend to have a long chat with my wife, but before I do so will you promise me one thing?"
10718Well, what have you found out?"
10718What are you saying?
10718What can all this mean?"
10718What can she know?"
10718What cared any of those friends of her step- mother if she were in disgrace and an outcast?
10718What could it all mean?
10718What could it be?
10718What could it be?
10718What could she do?
10718What could she reply?
10718What did he suspect?
10718What do you happen to know about them?"
10718What do you imply?"
10718What do you mean?
10718What does it mean?
10718What else could she say?
10718What had he to say?
10718What has been discovered?"
10718What if he told the awful truth?
10718What if she flung her good name to the winds and actually carried out her threat?
10718What if she really spoke the truth?
10718What indeed?
10718What kind of man is Sir Henry Heyburn?"
10718What makes you think that?"
10718What motive had he?
10718What secret?"
10718What shall I tell your father?"
10718What should she do?
10718What was the_ coup_ in this particular instance?
10718What would he think if the bitter truth were exposed?
10718What would her lover think of her?
10718What would the man gain thereby?
10718What, indeed, did anything matter?
10718What, pray, is it worth?
10718What-- what makes you think that?"
10718When facing her again, he smiled, asking,"Tell me, Winnie, what does all this mean?"
10718When will you be convinced that the answer I gave you long ago was the actual truth?"
10718When would his welcome telegram arrive?
10718Whence did they come?
10718Where is that box from the Professor?"
10718Where was she?"
10718Who is it who compels you to act against your will and against your better nature?
10718Who keeps the key of the safe?"
10718Who knows?"
10718Who''s been telling you about the Whispers, child?"
10718Why are you so indifferent, dearest?"
10718Why did he not allow us to discuss the affair first?"
10718Why did she attempt to shield the man who, by his sudden flight, was self- convicted of an attempt upon her life?
10718Why do n''t you speak to me?"
10718Why do n''t you speak?
10718Why had Gabrielle met Felix Krail-- of all men?
10718Why had Krail attempted to get rid of her in that manner?
10718Why had he not replied to her letter?
10718Why had he not written?
10718Why had she, by her own action in writing to her lover, placed herself in that terrible position from which there was no escape-- save by death?
10718Why had that man followed her?
10718Why had their meeting been a clandestine one?
10718Why had this great calamity befallen her?
10718Why have n''t I seen you to- night?"
10718Why is it?
10718Why should Aunt Emily complain of me?
10718Why should Krail meet her by accident at that lonely spot?
10718Why should all this misfortune fall upon her, to wreck her young life?
10718Why should he be worried on her account?
10718Why should he enjoin such secrecy?
10718Why should not Flockart retaliate?
10718Why should you care now?
10718Why should you two not be happy?"
10718Why under compulsion?
10718Why was Mr. Hamilton in that neighbourhood?
10718Why, are n''t Walter Murie and his mother dining here to- night?
10718Why, darling, what allegation could such a man ever make against you?"
10718Why, does she not stand between us and fortune?"
10718Why, indeed, had he troubled to come there?
10718Why, my dear Walter,"she laughed,"whatever do you want to know about him?
10718Why, was not this man her father''s false friend?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?
10718Why?"
10718Why?"
10718Why?"
10718Will you be at home in the afternoon?"
10718Will you not listen, and take my advice?
10718With what motive should I open your safe?"
10718Wo n''t you sing another?"
10718Wo n''t you tell me the truth?
10718Would he never write again?
10718Would it be judicious to explain Flockart''s visit, and how he had urged their reconciliation?
10718Would it not be far better if he invited you to return?"
10718Would you?"
10718Yet surely she''s safer with her aunt?"
10718Yet was not his own poignant jealousy misleading him?
10718Yet-- yet is it not cruel that I dare not speak the truth and clear myself of this foul charge of betraying my own dear father?
10718You do n''t know where the old fellow keeps the key?"
10718You do now, I suppose?"
10718You know his daughter, then?"
10718You recollect her?"
10718You surely know what people are saying-- the construction they are placing upon your friendship for Lady Heyburn?"
10718You were alone, I suppose?"
10718You will pardon my resuming, wo n''t you?"
10718You''ve trusted me before,"he added;"why not again?"
10718an''ha''e ye actually h''ard the Whispers?"
10718cried Flockart, his eyes glaring angrily,"do you declare, then, that I am a murderer?"
10718cried Walter,"I wonder where this leads to?"
10718exclaimed the man, halting and looking her seriously in the face;"ha''e ye seen the ghaist?"
10718he cried cheerily, taking her hand,"what brings you over this morning, especially when we were told last night that you were so very ill?"
10718he cried,"what is the matter?
10718he gasped in distinct alarm,"has she told her father the truth?"
10718if ever she did know what was in progress it would be all up for both of us-- wouldn''t it?
10718if she does-- then-- then--""And what, pray, can you do?"
10718inquired Sir Henry,"when she herself admitted that she had been at the safe?"
10718laughed the sightless man,"he''s already beginning to understand the feminine perverseness, eh?
10718she gasped quickly;"do you think he suspects?"
10718then it''s a secret e''en frae the laird, eh?"
10718why, what''s happened?"
6325A change?
6325A dog?
6325A ladder?
6325A little remote from Britton, is n''t she?
6325A middle- aged man with the upper button of his waistcoat off?
6325Admitting that to be true, why should she marry me?
6325Alone?
6325Am I to assume that the newspapers were correct in stating that you mean to support my cause with-- I may say, to the full extent of your powers?
6325Am I to infer that you may have experienced a one- sided leaning toward matrimony?
6325Amberdale?
6325An hour from_ now_?
6325And find me here?
6325And how did you find it out?
6325And now will you be good enough to tell me who I am?
6325And now, Mr. Smart, will you be kind enough to explain this incomprehensible proceeding on your part?
6325And now, what do you say to our trip to the bottom of the castle?
6325And so my study is just beyond this mirror, eh? 6325 And the mother made way with him?"
6325And this Mr. Pless, who is he?
6325And what am I to call you?
6325And what did you say to that?
6325And where am I to get the hot water for shaving, sir?
6325And why not?
6325And-- you do n''t?
6325Any message?
6325Any one else getting off here?
6325Anythink more, sir?
6325Are we not to go searching for it?
6325Are you at home?
6325Are you giving a dinner party?
6325Are you going to hunt for it yourself?
6325Are you hungry?
6325Are you hurt, Colly?
6325Are you in earnest?
6325Are you really, truly in earnest?
6325Are you satisfied, Mr. Smart, that there are no counterfeits among them?
6325Are you so homely as all that?
6325Are you sure?
6325Assuming that you are right in regard to my feelings toward her, Fred, what leads you to believe that I would stand a chance of winning her?
6325Bad notions?
6325Besides, sir, would it not be safer to wait till the tourist party has come and gone?
6325Blows? 6325 Boy?"
6325Breakage?
6325Breakfast or-- you?
6325Britton, what''s all this gossip I hear going the rounds of the castle behind my back?
6325Britton,said I, as he closed the door,"do you think they will carry out their threat to have the law on me?
6325Britton,said I, wearily,"have you ever seen anything like it?"
6325But ca n''t you see how dreadful it would be if I were to kill Rosemary''s father?
6325But do n''t you love the view you have of the Danube?
6325But surely_ you_ see the danger?
6325But why did you suggest such a thing to him?
6325But why should you hide from him?
6325But why worry about that, Mr. Smart? 6325 But your mother?
6325But, of course, as you say, if they can get any pleasure out of it, why should we object? 6325 By the way, whose baby is it?
6325By the way,I said sternly,"how does that bedstead happen to be a yard or so lower than any other bed in this entire castle?
6325By the way,I went on, knitting my brows,"how am I to get into your side of the castle?
6325Ca n''t we effect a compromise? 6325 Ca n''t you see me?"
6325Ca n''t you see?
6325Can you expect me to indulge an extravagant wife, who seeks to become a social queen, and still save anything out of a paltry million?
6325Can you not see for yourself?
6325Can you think of a better way to kill it?
6325Circumstances?
6325Come here a minute, will you?
6325Cosy?
6325Could n''t Rudolph and Max stop them?
6325Count James Hohendahl?
6325Criminal news?
6325Did he leave any message for me? 6325 Did n''t he get his money?"
6325Do about it?
6325Do n''t you ever sit down?
6325Do n''t you know who this gentleman is? 6325 Do n''t you read the newspapers?"
6325Do n''t you see the advantage we gain by fooling him? 6325 Do n''t you think the roses are lovely in that old silver bowl?"
6325Do n''t you think your guests will consider you rather inhospitable if you stay away from them all morning?
6325Do n''t you want to know it? 6325 Do you also contemplate giving notice to the chef and his wife, our only chambermaid?"
6325Do you hear me?
6325Do you hear, sir?
6325Do you know her?
6325Do you know we''ve never given the buried treasure another thought?
6325Do you mean that it will arrive at two o''clock?
6325Do you mean to say that articles have been taken away from the castle since I came into possession?
6325Do you mean to say you wo n''t tell me his name?
6325Do you mean to tell me that these things have been sold and carried away without my knowledge or consent? 6325 Do you mind if I go on arranging them?"
6325Do you really consider him an ingenuous old soul?
6325Do you really think they would put me in prison?
6325Do you recognise it?
6325Do you serve me, or do you serve the lady in the east wing?
6325Do you smell_ that_?
6325Do you suppose, just to oblige you, I''ll get myself mixed up in this wretched squabble? 6325 Do you think I am blind?"
6325Does he?
6325Does it seem so to you?
6325Does n''t this castle belong to me?
6325Eh? 6325 Eh?
6325Eh?
6325For God''s sake,I whispered hoarsely in my humbleness,"say that you forgive me?"
6325Found out?
6325Gentlemen?
6325Going out, Mother?
6325Good looking?
6325Guests?
6325Has anything serious happened?
6325Has she ever said anything to you, old chap, that would lead you to believe she''s keen about him?
6325Has she never mentioned Lord Amberdale to you?
6325Hasn''t-- hasn''t she ever hinted at-- hasn''t she mentioned any one at all?
6325Hate''em?
6325Have I told you, Mr. Smart, that I am expecting my mother here to visit me week after next?
6325Have n''t I just said that I do n''t want to talk about literature? 6325 Have n''t you any more sense than to smash a golf club like that?
6325Have you a cold?
6325Have you had your breakfast?
6325Have you lost interest in it so soon?
6325Have you made out the papers?
6325Have you seen them?
6325Have you suddenly discovered the fact, sir?
6325He did, eh? 6325 He has?"
6325He knew all the time that you were napping in that chair, eh?
6325He owes it, does n''t he?
6325He wants the child and-- and-- well, you can see why he wants her, ca n''t you? 6325 Head her off?
6325Heavenly?
6325Herr Schmick,said I,"will you be so good as to inform me who the dickens that woman is over in the east wing of the castle?"
6325His stomach? 6325 How can you prove that it''s the genuine article?"
6325How can you publicly espouse the cause of one whose name you refuse to have mentioned in your presence?
6325How did it get there?
6325How did you get in?
6325How do you know?
6325How does your valet stand it?
6325How in the world did you guess?
6325How is Rosemary?
6325How is the baby?
6325How soon do they go?
6325I am quite sure, Mr. Smart, that Dillingham is a perfectly trustworthy detective, and--"But why take the slightest risk?
6325I am reading your last book-- Are you going?
6325I am sure you will pardon me if I very politely ask who you are?
6325I beg your pardon, Mr. Smart,he said in fairly good English,"may I have a word with you?
6325I beg your pardon, but would you mind doing me a slight favour?
6325I like_ this!_ Are they my servants or yours?
6325I manage it? 6325 I mean to say, sir, is n''t it true?"
6325I suppose Poopendyke told you the-- the gossip?
6325I? 6325 I?"
6325If I should write you a nice, agreeable letter, explaining as much as I can, wo n''t you be satisfied?
6325In those dark, dank, grewsome cellars?
6325In_ my_ bed? 6325 Indeed?"
6325Is Britton dead?
6325Is it necessary for Mr. Pless to resort to a subterfuge of this character in order to get a message to me?
6325Is it?
6325Is n''t he any good?
6325Is n''t it about time I was doing something for you in return for all that you have done for me?
6325Is n''t it getting to be a habit?
6325Is n''t it jolly, Mr. Smart? 6325 Is n''t it odd that the Countess, an American, should be descended from the old Rothhoefens?
6325Is n''t it perfectly ludicrous?
6325Is n''t it rather odd that he should still think she is here, in the castle?
6325Is n''t it, sir?
6325Is n''t she adorable?
6325Is n''t she lovely?
6325Is n''t what?
6325Is she pretty?
6325Is-- is he a count?
6325Is-- is there anything else?
6325Is_ this_ the way the wind blows?
6325It is something of a climb, is n''t it?
6325Jail?
6325Jappie,said his mother severely,"how often must I caution you not to speak of New York as Jew York?
6325John, will you ever forgive me?
6325Madam,I exploded,"will you be good enough to listen to me?
6325Maude, what do you know about the Roman- Teutonic treaty? 6325 May I enquire, madam, what you are doing in my hou-- my castle?"
6325May I enquire, madam,said I stiffly,"how you came to select my abode as your hiding place?"
6325May I inquire where and from whom you received the impression that I am a rich man?
6325May I inquire, Countess, how you manage to have letters delivered to you here? 6325 May I inquire, sir, where you are taking_ these_?"
6325May I offer you a brandy and soda?
6325Might I suggest that we also engage a chambermaid? 6325 Mr. Brewster gone out yet?"
6325Mr. Poopendyke,said I slowly, darkly,"what do you know about those violets?"
6325Mrs. Titus does n''t seem to realise the risk she runs in--"Risk? 6325 My dear fellow, shall we not shake hands?"
6325Next Thursday?
6325Not at home?
6325Nothing at all, I submit, in view of the fact that it may be the means of saving you from a term in prison for abducting Rosemary?
6325Notice?
6325Now, will you be good enough to get out of this house-- and stay out?
6325Now,_ is n''t_ she lovely?
6325Of course you_ were_ married in New York?
6325Oh, did it prick you?
6325Oh, how can you ask?
6325Oh, is that all? 6325 Oh, you do, eh?
6325Oh, you''ve seen her, eh?
6325Oh,said I, remembering,"I have n''t told you, have I?
6325One of the finest chaps I know, eh, George?
6325Out? 6325 Pains?"
6325Pardon me, sir, but would n''t it be a tip- top idea to have it out with the Schmicks to- night? 6325 Remainder?"
6325Save us a great deal of legging it over town and all that sort of thing, eh?
6325See here,I exclaimed, facing them angrily,"what does all this mean?
6325Shall we set to- morrow for the treasure quest?
6325She is n''t figuring on having it published, is she?
6325She is?
6325She won''t--"Why, you blithering idiot,I roared,"do you know what you are saying?
6325She-- she has arrived?
6325She? 6325 Sir?"
6325So she was out in it too, eh? 6325 Tell Hawkes, will you?"
6325That complicates matters, does n''t it? 6325 That is, who am I supposed to be?"
6325The Count?
6325The Schmicks?
6325The baby?
6325The buy and sell kind?
6325The express stops for him, eh? 6325 The family?
6325The shrinkage?
6325The sixth baron? 6325 The-- the what, sir?"
6325The_ what_?
6325Then how did the woman and her dog get into that part of the castle?
6325Then how_ did_ you get in?
6325Then it is true that you are going to marry?
6325Then why run the risk?
6325Then why wo n''t you admit that you are sorry for her? 6325 Then you do n''t intend to send out the statements?"
6325Then,--then, you are going to marry some one?
6325They have n''t moved it, have they? 6325 They''re very cute, ai n''t they, sir?"
6325Think she''ll have him?
6325Toward whom?
6325Turn you out of this delightful room after you''ve had so much trouble getting it into shape? 6325 Turn you out?"
6325Was it_ really_ signed here, right here in this hall? 6325 Was n''t he paid in full?"
6325Was n''t she at''ome, sir?
6325Was she?
6325Wass iss?
6325We?
6325Well, now that you are here, Mr. Smart, may I be so bold as to inquire what you are going to do about it?
6325Well, of all the-- Oh, I say, Countess, you do n''t believe a word of all this, do you?
6325Well, two days?
6325Well, we are bosom friends once more, are we not? 6325 Well, what does he say?"
6325Well,said I, seeing the point,"what are you doing here?"
6325Well,said I, somewhat feebly,"where do I come in?"
6325Well,said he, slowly and deliberately,"why do n''t you set about it, then?"
6325Well?
6325What about it? 6325 What became of the rag- doll, Britton?"
6325What did she have to say about it, Fred?
6325What do I do now?
6325What do you ask for this thing?
6325What do you know about clubs?
6325What do you mean?
6325What do you mean?
6325What do you mean?
6325What do you mean?
6325What do you take me for, madam? 6325 What does this mean?"
6325What happened to it?
6325What has become of all that?
6325What has happened?
6325What have you been doing all summer?
6325What have you been saying to mother?
6325What is it, sir? 6325 What is it, sir?"
6325What is it, then?
6325What is it?
6325What is it?
6325What is on your mind, Countess?
6325What is she like, Fred?
6325What is the use of going into all that?
6325What is your idea of borrowing, may I ask?
6325What kind of a shot is the baron?
6325What the devil do you mean by that, sir? 6325 What the devil is the matter with you?"
6325What the dickens is it doing down here?
6325What time do we dine?
6325What was her social standing in New York?
6325What would you think of me if I were to tell you I''m not?
6325What''s quite true, sir?
6325What''s that got to do with it?
6325What''s that? 6325 What''s that?"
6325What''s up? 6325 What''s up?"
6325What''s up?
6325When does the next train get in?
6325Where are the keys, you old rascal?
6325Where are you?
6325Where are your sons?
6325Where are your sons?
6325Where is she?
6325Who is he?
6325Who is she? 6325 Who is this mucker?"
6325Who let these people in?
6325Who the devil are you?
6325Why are you so keen to have me take sides with her?
6325Why are you so quiet, so funereal?
6325Why destroy a perfectly good padlock, mein herr?
6325Why did n''t he accept it?
6325Why did you ask if he is a count?
6325Why do you suppose he wants to see you?
6325Why not place a tall ladder in the courtyard and crawl in through one of the windows?
6325Why not? 6325 Why not?
6325Why not?
6325Why the deuce do n''t you stay on the upper floors?
6325Will you be good enough to explain this intrusion?
6325Will you be good enough to leave the room for awhile, Mr. Schymansky? 6325 Will you be good enough to send your-- your army away, or do you prefer to have it on hand in case I should take it into my head to attack you?"
6325Will you believe me if I say to you that I went into it blindly?
6325Will you come in now, and make yourself quite at home?
6325Will you forgive me if I submit that you sleep quite a distance from home?
6325Will you give me three days in which to think it over?
6325Will you have your shave and tub now, sir?
6325Will you please put a chair here so that I may hop down?
6325Will you please put a stop to the noise for a day or two?
6325Will you put in the telephone, sir?
6325Wo n''t he, Blake?
6325Wo n''t you be generous?
6325Wo n''t you take off your veil and stay awhile?
6325Woman, mein herr?
6325Women in the party?
6325Work? 6325 Would it not be better to discuss the question of payments before we go any further, Count Tarnowsy?"
6325Would n''t it?
6325Would n''t your heart be broken?
6325Would you be entertained by a real mystery?
6325Would you be vitally interested in the outcome of such an affair?
6325Would you like to hold her, Mr. Smart? 6325 Would you turn me out of my own house?
6325Yes, mein herr?
6325You are going to let every one think you are his friend and not mine?
6325You are sure there was a treaty, Maude?
6325You did not have to live in the same house with me to find it out, did you?
6325You do n''t despise me?
6325You do?
6325You know my name?
6325You mean since the-- er-- divorce?
6325You mean that there is a plan afoot to-- to smuggle you out of the country?
6325You were not thinking of the workmen just now, were you?
6325You will not fail to look us up when you come to New York, will you, Mr. Smart? 6325 You wish me to accept a third mortgage on the place?"
6325You would n''t have me turn her over to the law, would you?
6325You''ll come?
6325You_ are_ in love with me, are n''t you, John, dear?
6325Your bedroom?
6325Your father bought them?
6325Your husband? 6325 _ Have you deserted me entirely?
6325_ John Bellamy Smart, Esquire._Dear Mr. Smart: Will you put a price on Schloss Rothhoefen?
6325_ What_ will people think of you?
6325( Is whack the word?)
6325A few weeks ago you were saying he ought to pay it, that it would serve him right, and--""Did I say that?"
6325A long line of Baron Schmarts?
6325A new problem confronted me: what was I to say to her?
6325A rug?"
6325A sickening thought struck me: could it be possible that the Countess herself suspected me of being in love with her?
6325A truce, or something of the sort?
6325After all, was n''t it likely to prove a most unpleasant matter?
6325After all, why should I expend my unpleasant humour on her?
6325After he had mumbled something about rain or wet grounds, I coldly enquired:"Mr. Poopendyke, are you employed by me or by that woman upstairs?"
6325Am I right?"
6325An Englishman?"
6325And Lord Amberdale would grin in his beastly supercilious English way and say:"What else could you have expected from a bally American bounder?"
6325And may I ask who_ you_ are?"
6325And now do n''t you want to come with me to see Rosemary?"
6325And why not?
6325Are all American husbands so perfect that Count Tarnowsy would appear black among them?
6325Are not American women stealing their children from American husbands?
6325Are there no American men who marry for money, and are there no American girls given in marriage to wealthy suitors of all ages, creeds and habits?
6325Are there no bad husbands in America?"
6325Are you going out with us in the boat or would you prefer to browse about a little longer?
6325Are you scowling at me?"
6325Are-- are you all right, my dear?"
6325Are-- are you the author, James Byron Smart?
6325Ask him politely if he could oblige me by telling me whether I was in love?
6325Ask him what?
6325Better, I hope?"
6325But did you hear what I said a moment ago?"
6325But that came later, so why anticipate a joy with realisation staring one in the face?
6325But what I''d like to know is this: What became of the grouse you ordered for dinner, sir?
6325But when they''re still alive and as bad as ever,--well, do n''t you see it''s different?"
6325But why not allow myself the pleasure of enjoying the romantic feast that had been set before me by the gods of chance?
6325But would I ever settle down to work?
6325But, even so, what right had my secretary to constitute himself adviser and mentor to the charming invader?
6325Ca n''t you put them off?"
6325Ca n''t you see?"
6325Can you have luncheon with us to- morrow?
6325Can you imagine these expert, able- bodied men putting laths on a wall with screw- drivers?
6325Can you smuggle her into the castle without any one knowing a thing about it?
6325Can you-- will you pardon the coarse opinions of a conceited ass?
6325Collecting all the sarcasm that I could command at the instant, I inquired:"And you, Mr. Poopendyke,--are you not ticklish?"
6325Could it be possible that there was anything in the speculation of my servants?
6325Could there be anything in what he said?
6325Criminal?
6325D''you see?
6325Damme, I am strong for her, are n''t you?"
6325Detectives?"
6325Did I imagine that he chuckled?
6325Did you come to blows?"
6325Do n''t you see you could have telephoned for me and saved him the trip?"
6325Do n''t you see?"
6325Do n''t you think it would be proper at this point to tell me who you are?"
6325Do you see_ that_?"
6325Do you suppose, Mr. Smart, I would jeopardise my daughter''s--""What''s up?"
6325Do you understand, madam?"
6325Do you understand?
6325Do you understand?"
6325Do you understand?"
6325Do you want Mr. Smart to die of pneumonia?"
6325Does Britton know it?"
6325Does he appear to be unhappy?"
6325Does n''t it seem simple?"
6325Does n''t it simplify matters, knowing this?"
6325Doesn''t-- doesn''t that help matters a little bit?"
6325Eh, Rudolph?
6325Ever meet him?
6325Following close upon this came another and even graver question: what would she say to me?
6325For whom was I to inquire?
6325Get the idea?"
6325Good Heavens, had that idiotic Poopendyke started a menagerie in my castle?
6325Got a match?"
6325Granted that he suspected me of a secret amour, what right had he to concern himself about it?
6325Great Scott, man, do n''t you know a woman''s hair when you see it?"
6325Had he been visiting her without my knowledge or-- was I about to say consent?
6325Had he, by any chance, traced the fugitive countess to my doors?
6325Had she been unhappy because of my beastly behaviour?
6325Has she not the good, brave m''sieur to-- what you call it-- to shoulder all the worry, no?
6325Have I been dreaming all this?"
6325Have I mentioned that my worthy secretary is six feet four, and as thin as a reed?
6325Have n''t they told you that my great- grandmother was a Rothhoefen?
6325Have you any cousins and aunts?"
6325Have you not read of countless cases over there in which conditions are quite similar to those which make the Tarnowsy fiasco so notorious?
6325Have you seen them?"
6325Have you seen to that?"
6325Have you seen yesterday''s papers?
6325He did n''t?
6325He eyed me rather coldly, as if to say,"What right have you to suggest circumstances?"
6325He was to let me know whether he could play golf with-- eh?
6325Help her to get away?
6325Here was I racing along like a schoolboy, and wherefor?
6325How am I to take it, sir?"
6325How came these doors to be unlocked when the whole place was supposed to be as tight as a drum?
6325How can you think that of me?
6325How could I be expected to devote myself to fiction when fact was staring me in the face so engagingly?
6325How could I have been so slow in grasping this great, bewildering truth?
6325How did she get there?"
6325How is he looking?
6325How was I to know that sobs took refuge behind a simulated interest in philosophy?
6325How was I to know that tears lay close to the surface of those shimmering, vivacious eyes?
6325How was I to know that the beast had treed a lizard in the lower hall and could n''t dislodge it?
6325How''s that?"
6325How-- er-- how did she take it?"
6325How-- how did he like it?"
6325Hurt?
6325I did not repeat the question, but managed to demand rather fiercely:"Are you?"
6325I do n''t like to appear hypercritical, but what did you think of the dinner tonight, sir?"
6325I expected you to glower and growl and--""On a bright, glorious, sunshiny morning like this?"
6325I have wept, have n''t I, Gretel?
6325I insist on knowing who that woman is, why she is here in my hou-- my castle, and-- everything, do you understand?"
6325I suppose you know the whole story?"
6325I''ll be over to- morrow to close the deal, Mr.--Mr.--Now, where is the old Florentine mirror the Count was telling us about?"
6325I--""Oh, what do you know about it?"
6325If not, whose?
6325In the first place I was_ not_ in love, and in the second place whose business was it but mine if I were?
6325Is it quite necessary to have all this pounding and hammering going on in the castle?
6325Is it to the fashionable Bellevue that the nobility and the elect wend their way when they come to town?
6325Is it_ hair_?"
6325Is n''t it a lovely centre- piece?
6325Is n''t it extremely dangerous to have them go through the mails?"
6325Is n''t it true, Hawkes?"
6325Is n''t she a quaint old dear?"
6325Is n''t she delicious?"
6325Is n''t that something?"
6325Is there another train soon?"
6325Is there anything so sad as a glass of champagne when it has gone flat and lifeless?
6325It was she who spent the million?"
6325It would be the simplest way out of our troubles, would n''t it?
6325It''s rather calamitous, is n''t it?
6325Let up on that, will you?"
6325Look for you?"
6325Ludicrous?
6325Max, will you fetch up another scuttle of coal?"
6325May I come too?"
6325May I depend upon you to help me at this trying period?
6325May I enquire how you happen to know that I have my study there?"
6325May I expect you at five-- or thereabouts?"
6325Moreover, if every one was talking about it, what was to prevent the silly gossip from reaching the sensitive ears of the Countess?
6325Mr. Pless did none of these interesting things, so why should I say that he did?
6325My dear Countess, why speak of managing a thing that is so obviously to be desired?"
6325My secret seemed to be safely planted, but what would the harvest be?
6325Need I add that the Hazzards and the Smiths travelled second- class?
6325No?
6325Now do n''t you see your peril?
6325Now we will pass on to the room occupied by all of the great baronesses up to the nineteenth--"A resolute beholder spoke up:"Ca n''t we step inside?"
6325Now what are you going to do about it?"
6325Now why should she throw the''ooks into a fine, upstanding chap like''i m, even if he is an American?
6325Now, do you imagine for a single instant that a beautiful, adorable young woman of twenty- three is going to spend the rest of her life without a man?
6325Of course the Hazzards and the Billy Smiths were possible panaceas, but what could they bring to ease the pangs of a secret nostalgia?
6325Of course, there was a tragic side to the whole matter, but now that I was in for it, why minimise the novelty by adopting arbitrary measures?
6325Oh, I know I must seem awfully foolish and idiotic to you, but-- but it''s too late now to back out, is n''t it?"
6325Oh, mein herr, is it you?"
6325Old Ludwig the Red?"
6325Or could it be possible that he was crying instead of laughing?
6325Or had she betrayed herself by indiscreet acts during the past twenty- four hours?
6325Or is silly the word?
6325Or was I the last of the Rothhoefens and not John Bellamy Smart, of Madison Avenue, New York?
6325Or was it mortification?
6325Pathetic?
6325Playing with Logan, eh?
6325Pless?"
6325Pless?"
6325Put on the gloves with this strapping, skillful boxer?
6325Quite a pretty sentiment, eh?"
6325Schymansky?"
6325See how clever she is?
6325See wot I mean?
6325See wot I mean?"
6325Shall we return to our own ladies?"
6325She knows he''s here?
6325She was taller than I had thought at first sight, or was it that I seemed to be getting smaller myself?
6325She would be adorable, would n''t she?"
6325She''s got a good many months to wait before the matter of the child and the final decree--""Is n''t she worth waiting a year for-- or ten years?
6325Smart?
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325Smart?"
6325So why was I galloping like this?
6325Stupid way for two grown- up men to behave, was n''t it?
6325Surreptitiously?"
6325Tell me, who is she-- or was she?"
6325That one little sentence,_"Have you deserted me?
6325That would go to prove she''s related in some way to some one, would n''t it?"
6325That''s plain- speaking, is n''t it?"
6325The champagne?
6325The doctor was here to- day and he reassured me--""A-- a doctor here to- day?"
6325The next?
6325Then a clear soup, a fish aspec, a-- Why rhapsodise?
6325Then why, in the name of heaven, was n''t he man enough to put a stop to it?
6325They_ are_ onions, ai n''t they, Carrie?"
6325This fine old spinet?
6325Time enough, eh?"
6325Titus?"
6325To be perfectly honest with you, I went into this marriage with my you his queen?
6325Turn''i m down?
6325Turning to Poopendyke, I said:"You have not sent that statement to the newspapers, have you?
6325Two minutes''time would serve to convince him that he was my master, and then where would I be?
6325Understand?"
6325Was I awake?
6325Was I really living in a feudal castle with romance shadowing me at every step?
6325Was I, after all, parting with my money in the way prescribed for fools?
6325Was he right?
6325Was her poor little heart sore over my incomprehensible conduct?
6325Was it not possible for a new and mighty race to rise and take the place of the glorious Rothhoefens?
6325Was it not probable, therefore, that my habitual tendency to turn away wrath with a soft answer might suffer a more or less sanguinary shock?
6325Was it possible that she meant to have old man Titus reward me in a pecuniary way?
6325Was it possible that the corners of Hawkes''mouth twitched?
6325Was it relief at finding her so happy and unconcerned that swept through me?
6325Was n''t it a nice kiss, honey- bunch?
6325Was not I a glory- seeking American and he one of the glorious?
6325Was she preparing to swoon?
6325Was that the way it appeared to her?
6325Was there anger also?
6325Was there anything in this silly twaddle?
6325Was this I, the dreamer of twenty years ago?
6325Was this a part of the bleak, sinister, weather- racked castle in which I was striving so hard to find a comfortable corner?
6325We can afford to laugh in our sleeves, ca n''t we?"
6325We sha n''t feel like stopping for a lot of silly letters-- By the way, sir, when do you expect to start on the romance?"
6325Well, I can only say that Dillingham is a fool, and I do n''t purpose having my own safety threatened by--""Your safety?"
6325Well, is n''t that enough?
6325Well, what did he say?"
6325Well, will you be good enough to tell me what the devil is the meaning of all this two- faced, underhanded conduct on your part?"
6325Well?"
6325Were Tarnowsy''s spies so hot upon the trail that it was necessary for her to abandon the attempt to enter my castle?
6325Were his spies hot upon the trail?
6325What I ca n''t understand, for the life of me, is this: how did you happen to pick up two such consummate bounders as these fellows are?"
6325What are we coming to?"
6325What are you doing out here with a lantern?"
6325What are you driving at?"
6325What business has he to be out?"
6325What could have happened to upset the well- arranged plan?
6325What crime has she committed?
6325What did she mean?
6325What do you mean by that?"
6325What do you mean?"
6325What do you think of that?"
6325What do you think, sir?"
6325What do you want?"
6325What family?"
6325What had become of him?
6325What has the divorce got to do with it?"
6325What have you been up to, madam?"
6325What have you got to be afraid of?"
6325What in heaven''s name was I to do if she took it into her pretty head to do such a thing as that?
6325What in the world was she looking for?
6325What indiscretion had the Countess been up to?
6325What is his name?"
6325What man could have felt otherwise?
6325What more could a sensible, experienced bachelor expect than that?
6325What occasion was there for such unseemly haste?
6325What puts that idea into your head?"
6325What right had he to criticise my manner of speech?
6325What right had he to meddle in Britton''s affairs?
6325What right had he to suggest what she should do, or what her father should do, or what_ anybody_ should do?
6325What say to a half- hour or so every day?
6325What say?
6325What say?"
6325What sort of a rest cure am I conducting here?"
6325What the deuce do you mean, sir, permitting these scoundrels to raise the dead like this?
6325What then must have been the strength of Mrs. Titus''s resolution to overcome the objections he put in her way?
6325What was it that I had been thinking out there in those gloomy halls?
6325What work?"
6325What would become of me?
6325What''s the matter with women, anyhow?
6325What''s the price?"
6325What''s to become of_ me_?"
6325When am I to have the pleasure of meeting the less particular Rosemary?"
6325When are you coming over?
6325When can you give possession?"
6325When would they strike the trail?
6325Where are the originals, Countess?"
6325Where are they to begin, sir?"
6325Where my record as a conqueror?
6325Where the dickens are my trousers?"
6325Where would be the prestige I had gained?
6325Who brought the information?"
6325Who did it?"
6325Who is it that draws the salary checks for yourself and Britton, and who keeps the accounts straight?
6325Who is this woman, and why are you so infernally set upon shielding her?
6325Who knows?
6325Who knows?
6325Who knows?"
6325Who put it into that confounded head of yours that I am-- er-- in love with the Countess?
6325Who would have dreamed of your buying the place and coming here to upset everything?"
6325Who, I repeat?
6325Why add fuel to the already pernicious flame?
6325Why begrudge them the pleasure?
6325Why could n''t Count Tarnowsy have been the one to fall?
6325Why did n''t you write or telegraph Aline?
6325Why did they make her a blonde on the cover?"
6325Why do n''t you come with me when I leave?
6325Why do you call it''The Fairest of the Fair''?"
6325Why do you maintain that an unfortunate alliance with a foreign nobleman is any worse than an unhappy marriage with an ordinary American brute?
6325Why go on making a fool of myself?
6325Why is it that a woman can go downstairs so much faster than a man?
6325Why not head her off?"
6325Why not stay for supper, too?"
6325Why should they be here?"
6325Why should we discommode each other?
6325Why tar all of them with the same stick?
6325Why was I so eager?
6325Why wo n''t you be a little just to her?"
6325Why-- But what use is there in applying why s to a man who does n''t know what God meant when He fashioned two sexes?
6325Will you be good enough, Mr. Smart, to overlook my mistake?
6325Will you be offended if I add that it was rather unexpected?
6325Will you be so very, very kind as to cease bothering me, Mr. Smart?
6325Will you bear with me patiently for a little while longer?"
6325Will you excuse me?
6325Will you explain how it is that it is open to strange women and-- and dogs?"
6325Will you join me?"
6325Will you not let me dress it after this?"
6325Will you shake hands?"
6325Wo n''t you please come and see me?
6325Wo n''t you please understand?"
6325Would I be content to exercise it capably?
6325Would I be serving the Countess ill or well by selling the place to Tarnowsy?
6325Would I cease to be putty in the hands of other people?
6325Would I come to see her the next day?
6325Would he be known there as Pless?
6325Would it be too much trouble if we were to have it in the loggia?
6325Would it not be better for me to face it alone?
6325Would it not be better to live the life of a hermit?
6325Would she become hysterical and go all to pieces?
6325Would the plumbers ever get off the place?
6325Would the prospect of a week of propinquity be too much for her, even though thick walls intervened to put them into separate worlds?
6325You are quite cosy in there, are n''t you?
6325You have no objection, I trust, to my looking over the castle?
6325You have read that book of Mrs. O''Burnett''s, have n''t you?--''The Shuttle''?
6325You knocked Maris down?"
6325You see what I mean?
6325You understand my position?"
6325You will come up to see Mr. Bangs to- night?"
6325You''re not thinking of telling me his name, are you?"
6325You''ve heard of men being wrapped about little fingers, have n''t you?
6325You_ can_ steal up, ca n''t you?
6325You_ do_ know Gretel, then?"
6325You_ do_ see it, do n''t you?"
6325_ That_ woman?
6325or"I''m sure you have thought of it yourself,"or"Is n''t that your idea, too?"
2433''But frae that moment, think ye there was ony peace i''the hoose? 2433 Ah, but, do n''t you know?
2433Ah, why indeed?
2433Ah, why? 2433 Am I able to help others?
2433An''wha may he be?
2433An''what are we to think o''the man,he said,"at''s content no to un''erstan''what he was at the trible to say?
2433An''what for mak this room less?
2433An''what may that be ower the heid o''them?--A crest, ca''ye''t?
2433An''what may ye be pleast to ca''wark?
2433An''what micht ye think the probability gien they had come intil a lot o''siller whan their father dee''d?
2433An''ye''ll doobtless read the Greek like yer mither- tongue?
2433And after that?
2433And does he stop?
2433And here are thick walls, and hearts careless an timid!--Has any one ever set in earnest about finding it?
2433And is n''t God a man-- and ever so much more than a man?
2433And is not that what the God you believe in does every day?
2433And my poor Davie?
2433And ruin her, and perhaps me too, for life?
2433And shall I be allowed to carry up as much as I please?
2433And since then you have grown a man!--How many months has it taken?
2433And they became the children of another?
2433And which is she likely to take? 2433 And you do n''t want to see her?"
2433Angry because you love me?
2433Are n''t you glad to have such a castle all for your own-- to do what you like with, Arkie? 2433 Are there so many devils about me that an honest fellow ca n''t pray in my company?"
2433Are those the good things then that the Lord says the Father will give to those that ask him? 2433 Are we safe?"
2433Are ye gaein''to the kirk the day, Anerew?
2433Are ye winnin''ower''t, sir? 2433 Are you certain, Sophia,"rejoined Arctura,"that it is self- assurance, and not conviction that gives him his courage?"
2433Are you fond of my brother?
2433Are you quite sure of what you say?
2433Are you so sure we can?
2433Are you suffering much, my lady?
2433Are you sure of that? 2433 Are you sure,"suggested Donal,"that there was not a violin shut up with them?
2433Are you troubled in your mind on the subject?
2433Ashamed of giving me the chance of proving myself a true man?
2433Ay, what is''t? 2433 But are there not things he can not do for us till we believe in Christ?"
2433But could we love him with all our hearts if he were not altogether lovable?
2433But he is not infinite in all his attributes? 2433 But hoo mak ye a livin''that w''y?"
2433But how am I to put a force in operation, while I do not know whether I possess it or not?
2433But how can we love those who are nothing to us?
2433But how could there be an aeolian harp up here?
2433But how often have you gone up and down these walks at dead of night?
2433But how should sinners know what is or is not like the true God?
2433But if there be creatures of God that have turned to demons, may not human souls themselves turn to demons? 2433 But may she not suppose you love her?"
2433But might not that be his fault?
2433But might there not be something good for us to do that we were not told of?
2433But now you have the masons here, why not go on, and make a little search for the lost room?
2433But now, does she not take your words of love for more than they are worth?
2433But suppose I were to take that way?
2433But tell me, Mr. Grant-- how would you set about it?
2433But the thing is worth doing, is it not, even if we do not go so far as to pull down?
2433But then-- excuse me,said Donal,"--why shouldna ye haud yer face til''t, an''work openly, i''the name o''God?"
2433But there''s ae question I maun sattle afore I gang farther-- an''that''s this: am I to be less or mair nor I was afore? 2433 But what can you do with it?"
2433But what first?
2433But what if you are not sure that you do not agree with him?
2433But what then do you call the duties of property?
2433But why bother about his heid more than the rest of his bones?
2433But will there not be some preparations to make?
2433But would there be no objection to my using the place for such a purpose?
2433But ye''re no a shepherd the noo?
2433But you will, dearest?
2433But,said Arctura, in a deprecating tone,"are not those houses which have more influence more important than the others?"
2433But,said mistress Brookes,"beggin''yer pardon, sir, what ken ye as to what they think?
2433Can the darkness be a shield? 2433 Can you ride?"
2433Can you strike a light, and let me see you, Donal?
2433Can you tell me anything about the people at the castle?
2433Certainly not; but would he not be pleased?
2433Come, Davie, I will help you: is Jesus dead, or is he alive?
2433Compelled!--what should compel him?
2433Could you not do it now?
2433Cruel?
2433Damn you? 2433 Davie told me your room was there: do you not find it cold?
2433Davie,he said,"where do you fancy the first lesson in the New Testament ought to begin?"
2433Did it ever occur to ye, sir,he said,"''at maybe deith micht be the first waukin''to some fowk?"
2433Did ye cry, guidman?
2433Did ye no? 2433 Did you ever hear anything about that little room on the stair, mistress Brookes?"
2433Did you ever know a bad woman grow better?
2433Did you ever know a bad woman?
2433Did you ever know a good woman, my lord?
2433Did you ever see a ghost?
2433Didna she sweep oot the schoolroom first whan ye gaed, sir?
2433Didna yer lordship promise an en''to the haill meeserable affair?
2433Dinna ye see the twa reid horse?
2433Do n''t you think we had better tell her all about it?
2433Do n''t you think,suggested Arctura,"when you are not able to say anything, it would be better not to be present?
2433Do ye ken the lass, sir-- to speak til her, I mean?
2433Do you believe it?
2433Do you go any time you like?
2433Do you know any cause for the attack?
2433Do you know why things so often come right?
2433Do you know, my lady,he asked Arctura,"how the aeolian harp is placed for the wind to wake it?"
2433Do you mean to marry her, my lord?
2433Do you mean, go on the roof? 2433 Do you mind being left while I fetch my tools?"
2433Do you not find it very stiff and formal?
2433Do you not owe him justice?
2433Do you not think he would just go on doing the same thing as before?
2433Do you think God would have his child do anything disgraceful? 2433 Do you think he had any knowledge of this plot of his father''s?"
2433Do you think if a man died for a thing, he would be likely to forget it the minute he rose again?
2433Do you think it comes in all storms?
2433Do you think it very silly to mind one''s dreams?
2433Do you think,said Donal,"I ought to tell Simmons?"
2433Do you?
2433Does it need any explanation but that we loved each other?
2433Does she still that same?
2433Does your father often tell you a fairy- tale?
2433Does your lordship think you were in the right-- either towards me or the poor animal who could not obey you because he was in torture?
2433Eppy wha, said ye?
2433Even to the grinding of the faces of the poor?
2433Every day?
2433For no haein''a hoose ower their heads? 2433 For what end were they made?"
2433Gien ye come this gait again,she said,"ye''ll no gang by my door?"
2433H''ard ye never that''afore, maister Grant?
2433Had we not better lock the door, my lady?
2433Has anything fresh happened?
2433Has nothing occurred to wake a doubt in you?
2433Have you attended the scripture- lesson regularly?
2433Have you not suspected him of-- of using you in any way?
2433Have you seen it?
2433He is a man to enjoy having a secret!--But our discovery bears out what we were saying as to the likeness of house and man-- does it not?
2433He wo n''t let me study as I want.--How has he interfered with you?
2433Hoo ken ye that?
2433Hoo ken ye the auld yerl sae weel?
2433Hoo''s a''wi''yersel''?
2433Hoo''s my lord, lass?
2433Hoo''s things gaein''up at the castel?
2433How are we to manage it, mistress Brookes?
2433How can he? 2433 How can that be,"answered Davie,"when you are afraid of him?
2433How can that be-- between a little boy like you, and a grown man like me?
2433How can there be any other than a natural cause, my lady? 2433 How can there be free will where the first thing demanded for its existence or knowledge of itself is obedience?"
2433How can you? 2433 How could I, when I do not know what they are required for?
2433How could he have been cruel to her in the house of his brother? 2433 How did either of you know of my existence?
2433How did he get the ring on to your wrist?
2433How do you know I am afraid of him?
2433How do you know I do not mean to marry her?
2433How do you know it is nonsense?
2433How do you know that?
2433How do you know that?
2433How do you know we are?
2433How do you think you will do without it,Donal once rejoined,"when you find yourself bodiless in the other world?"
2433How far are you going?
2433How is it I find you here with this man?
2433How long will he be your guardian?
2433How long will you take to dress?
2433How long, pray, have you loved me?
2433How shall I find master Davie?
2433How was it?
2433How will she bear it,thought Donal;"how after such an experience, can she spend the rest of the day alone?
2433How would they live? 2433 How?"
2433I believe I know the house, my lord,answered Donal,"with strong iron stanchions to the lower windows, and--?"
2433I ca n''t think what made me sleep so long? 2433 I canna preten''to that; but she''s weel kent throu''a''the country for a God- fearin''wuman.--An''whaur''ll ye be for the noo?"
2433I confess you have the better of me.--But is there not a fallacy in your argument?
2433I did not notice it before.--Do you suppose he left me here to die?
2433I do n''t doubt it; but what could he have had it built for, if he was going to open the other wall? 2433 I do remember a certain thing!--Curious!--But what then as to the openin''o''''t efter?"
2433I have had a good deal,he went on,"to shake my belief in the common ideas on such points.--Do you believe there is such a thing as free will?"
2433I have some hope of it.--You are not frightened, my lady?
2433I hope you have known me long enough,he said,"to believe I have contrived nothing?"
2433I remember very well; why the deuce should I not remember? 2433 I should done better.--Where do you live?"
2433I want you to go to the house for me: you do not mind going, do you?
2433I want you to search a certain bureau there for some papers.--By the way, have you any news to give me about Forgue?
2433I will tell my brother what you say,answered Miss Graeme, with victory in her heart-- for was it not as she had divined?
2433I''ve a good hard head, thank God!--But what has become of them?
2433If God be at peace,he would say to himself,"why should not I?"
2433If I should say everywhere?
2433If a man desires God, he can not help knowing enough of him to be capable of learning more-- else how should he desire him? 2433 If he wanted me to talk to him,"he said,"why did he tell me that about Forgue?
2433If she had gone on, she might have got as good as your mother?
2433If the land were of no value, would the possession of it involve duties?
2433If the only way to life lay through a hair, what must you do but split it? 2433 If we do n''t, then we have n''t faith in him?"
2433In what does the property consist?
2433In what does the value of the land consist?
2433Is he making you still, Mr. Grant? 2433 Is is not grand,"it said,"to be all day with a man like that-- talking to you and teaching you?"
2433Is it a threat to warn you that your very consciousness may become a curse to you? 2433 Is it possible?"
2433Is it,returned Davie,"because they were made right to begin with?"
2433Is my leddy safe?
2433Is n''t it just as well to read such a book? 2433 Is not Christ the same always, and is he not of one mind with God?
2433Is she still-- is she-- alive?
2433Is that to say God has not done his part?
2433Is the factor anywhere in the running?
2433Is there anything you think I could do?
2433Is there no chance for Forgue then?
2433Is there not a duty owing to your family?
2433Is your lordship not aware of some not very pressing duty that you are neglecting to do? 2433 Isna she ower ye?
2433It is near the earl''s room: is there no danger of his hearing anything?
2433It will be time enough to answer that question,replied Donal,"when it changes to,''How did an aeolian harp get up here?''
2433It''s the varra place!--an''the sooner the better-- dinna ye think, my lady?
2433Ken ye my mither?
2433Know a bad woman? 2433 Like Abraham?"
2433Look after my mare, will you?
2433Maister Grant, wull ye ask a blessin''?
2433May he not come here?
2433May it not have been for the sake of shutting out, or hiding something?
2433Mistress Brookes,said lady Arctura,"I want to have a little talk with Mr. Grant, and there is no fire in the library: may we sit here?"
2433More than send his son to die for your sins?
2433Mr. Grant, how could anybody make a dead man live again?
2433Mr. Grant,he said,"will you help me with this passage in Xenophon?"
2433Mr. Grant,said Arctura, in dread of what Davie might say next,"what do you take to be the duty of one inheriting a property?
2433Must even the old titles of the country be buttressed into respectability with money? 2433 My lord,"he said,"I have given my word to the girl: would you have me disgrace your name by breaking it?"
2433No, I do not: who does?
2433No, sir; why should a man fear the presence of his saviour?
2433No; but what then did I give you the lesson for? 2433 Not nonsense to keep imagining what nobody can see?"
2433Now for the girl: who knows about it?
2433Now tell me, were you ever a ghost?
2433Now tell me-- what can the art of writing, and its expansion, or perhaps its development rather, in printing, do in the same direction as necromancy? 2433 Now you know all about the book, do n''t you?"
2433Now, Davie,said Donal,"what have you done since our last lesson?"
2433Now, my lord,said Donal, following his example and sitting down,"will you hear me?"
2433Of what consequence can my opinions be to you, ma''am? 2433 On a still day?"
2433On what grounds then would he say so?
2433One question more: what is faith-- the big faith I mean-- not the little faith between equals-- the big faith we put in one above us?
2433Or frightened?
2433Please, Mr. Grant,said Davie,"may I have a holiday?"
2433Pray what could be the good of that except--?
2433Required of him by what?
2433Shall I try how he takes to trigonometry? 2433 Shall we go on the roof?"
2433Should not the truth be found, whatever it may be? 2433 Suppose he found he had no will, for he could not do what he wished?"
2433Suppose you had been in her image, what then?
2433Suppose you said,''I daresay it is all as good as you say, but I do n''t care to take so much trouble about it,''--what would that be?
2433Suppose you were to say nothing, but go away and do nothing of what I told you-- what would that be?
2433Surely you will not leave me while--.--I thought-- I thought--.--What is it?
2433Surely, Anerew,interposed his wife, holding up her hands in mild deprecation,"ye wudna lat the lassie du wrang gien ye could haud her richt?"
2433Tell me something of your history: where were you born? 2433 The truth alone can be proved, my lord; how should a lie be proved?
2433Then God disowns his children, and when they are the children of another, adopts them? 2433 Then are you not now going to do so?"
2433Then did God repudiate them?
2433Then how are they to be blamed for doing the deeds of their father?
2433Then how should you know how a ghost would feel?
2433Then perhaps it is not a chimney: is there any sign of soot about, Davie?
2433Then she was nearer the image of God than you?
2433Then this may be the varra wa''he biggit?
2433Then what does he live for?
2433Then what is surprising in it?
2433Then what, in the name of God, have you done with my son?
2433Then why does n''t every boy go to him when he ca n''t get fair play?
2433Then why the devil kick up such an infernal shindy about it?
2433Then you allow that it is horrible to think oneself under the influence of the vices of certain wicked people, through whom we come where we are?
2433Then you can do nothing till the music comes again?
2433Then you did really write it?
2433Then you do n''t believe it?
2433Then you have forgiven me?
2433Then you intend neither to meddle nor make?
2433Then you saw a difference between such a woman and your mother?
2433Then you say there are more seeds than are required?
2433Then you think there is no use in going up?
2433Then you wo n''t ride to- day?
2433Then-- then--"What, my lady?
2433This''ll be the Morven Arms, I''m thinkin''?
2433To- morrow then?
2433Understand ignorance?
2433Wad ye lat a stranger put in a word, freen''s?
2433Wad ye objec''to maister ane by himsel''--or maybe twa?
2433Was it very dreadful?
2433Was there injustice than, or was there favour i''that veesitation o''the sins o''their father upo''them?
2433We shall be able at least to see and hear, else where were the use of believing in another world?
2433We shall have no more lessons this morning.--Was your papa with them?
2433We''ll bide till the day comes.--But what are ye stan''in''there for? 2433 Weel, hoo are ye gettin''on wi''the yerl?"
2433Weel, isna''t best to ken what''s intil''t?
2433Weel, wad ye please tell me what ye ca''the justice o''God?
2433Weel, what wad ye mak o''''t?
2433Weel, yoong Eppy, hoo''s a''wi''ye?
2433Well, what then?
2433Well, young man,he said, looking up at him with concentrated severity,"what would you have me do?"
2433Well-- where is the good of knowing that?
2433Were you ever afraid, my lord?
2433What address, please your lordship? 2433 What are sins, Davie?"
2433What are you going to do with her?
2433What are you two whispering at there?
2433What bad things do you do?
2433What book is that you are reading?
2433What ca''they yon castel?
2433What can that be? 2433 What can that be?"
2433What did he die for?
2433What did my father say?
2433What did she say, Davie?
2433What did you marry her for?
2433What do you know about such things? 2433 What do you mean?
2433What do you mean?
2433What do you mean?
2433What do you please to imagine I am doing now?
2433What do you say to that place in the park where was once a mausoleum?
2433What does he do?
2433What does it all mean?
2433What does it matter who said it?
2433What else can it be, standing with the rest?
2433What for no milk?
2433What for no?
2433What for thank ye God for that?
2433What good then can there be in wanting to be learned?
2433What if God be sending fresh light into the minds of his people?
2433What if she knows I do not intend to marry her?
2433What is behind that press there-- wardrobe, I think you call it?
2433What is being wicked?
2433What is his name?
2433What is it?
2433What is it?
2433What is the matter?
2433What kind of a book?
2433What makes a thing your own, do you think, Davie?
2433What makes you say that, mistress Brookes?
2433What makes you think I forgive you, Davie?
2433What name?
2433What objection?
2433What right have you to ask?
2433What shall we do first?
2433What should I say? 2433 What the deuce is that to you?"
2433What the devil are you doing here?
2433What then are all those beech- nuts under the leaves? 2433 What then would you say if the land were your own?
2433What think you of that, sir?
2433What time does he tell them?
2433What times were those?
2433What was it then, uncle?
2433What was it?
2433What was yon''at he said aboot the mirracles no bein''teeps?
2433What were you doing there,she asked, with a strange mingling of expressions,"in such a night?"
2433What were you doing this morning, uncle?
2433What would you like best to do-- I mean if you might do what you pleased?
2433What would you say to me?
2433What would you think of me, Davie,Donal was saying,"if I were angry with you because you did not know something I had never taught you?"
2433What''s that?
2433What''s that?
2433What?
2433Whaur am I wantit, mother?
2433Whaur are ye b''un''for, gien a body may speir?
2433Whaur''s Eppy Comin, gien ye please?
2433When shall we be married?
2433When shall we set about it?
2433When will you bring it me?
2433When would you call a man learned?
2433When you please, my lady.--To- night?
2433When?
2433Where are you, my lady?
2433Where do you mean to pass the night?
2433Where else is the music heard? 2433 Where is he gone?"
2433Where is that, sir?
2433Where is that?
2433Where is the good of fancying what is not true? 2433 Where is the use then of being great?"
2433Where shall we bury them?
2433Where were you, my lady,asked Donal,"when you heard it?
2433Where would Scotland be now but for resistance?
2433Where''s the harm, my lady? 2433 Where''s your money?"
2433Where?
2433Whether that be good or bad?
2433Which of us are you going to tell upon?
2433Which side will you have-- the broad or the narrow?
2433Which way are you going?
2433Who has not that lives?
2433Who is, then?
2433Who said it then?
2433Who taught you?
2433Who will have the property now?
2433Whom else could I mean?
2433Whose children?
2433Whose,insisted Donal,"are the children whom God adopts?"
2433Why did you not open the arches? 2433 Why do n''t you cry to him to deliver you?"
2433Why do things come right so often, do you think, Davie?
2433Why do you ask me?
2433Why do you live there? 2433 Why do you say they are lost?
2433Why do you say-- might have been?
2433Why do you tell me this?
2433Why does he not work here rather than in the archway?
2433Why else should he come and look till he find?
2433Why is he so long about it?
2433Why not?
2433Why not?
2433Why should I not?
2433Why should it look dreadful if it is not dreadful?
2433Why should you mind that?
2433Why so?
2433Why then should you trouble your fancy about them?
2433Why will you not, Arctura?
2433Why, Miss Carmichael, do you think the gospel comes to us as a set of fools? 2433 Why, did n''t you as much as offer to teach me the library?
2433Why, my lord, who said that?
2433Why, what the devil have you to do with it?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Why?
2433Will any saying keep her from being so in love with you as to reap misery? 2433 Will it be safe for Davie?"
2433Will peace come out of all storms?
2433Will you come out a bit, Andrew,he said,"--if you''re not tired?
2433Will you come with me?
2433Will you dine with me to- night?
2433Will you let me look at the passage?
2433Will you mind being left?
2433Will you tell her all about it?
2433Will you tell me what you mean by saying you have no ambition?
2433Would it be less mine,said Arctura,"if I was not at liberty to pull it all to pieces?
2433Would not such precaution as that keep you from gaining a true knowledge of many things? 2433 Would she speak to you again if she heard you talking so of the love you give her?"
2433Would that be faith in him?
2433Would you always do what he told you?
2433Would you have me marry the girl? 2433 Would you mind coming to my room?
2433Would you mind coming to the place?
2433Would you mind if I moved the wardrobe a little on one side?
2433Would you not like, my lady,said Donal,"to come to the schoolroom this afternoon?
2433Wrang!--in obeyin''my Maister, whase is the day, as weel''s a''the days? 2433 Wud ye du them a guid turn?"
2433Wud ye hae me lat the lassie tak her chance ohn dune onything?
2433Wull ye hae a drap mair?
2433Ye dinna surely think God fillsna a''thing?
2433Ye dinna think, than, there''s onything wrang in men''in''a pair o''shune on the Sabbath- day?
2433Ye wadna hang the puir craturs, wad ye?
2433Yes,she answered at once;"I should like it much!--Is there not something you could give me to do?--Will you not teach me something?"
2433You are not going to leave me?
2433You are not vexed with your pupil-- are you?
2433You did not?
2433You do n''t like it then?
2433You do n''t mean there is anything like that in me?
2433You do n''t mind if I make a little dust, my lady?
2433You do n''t surely hint,said Donal,"that there''s anything between her and lord Forgue?
2433You do not mind being left alone?
2433You doubt my honour?
2433You have never told her so?--never said or done anything to make her think so?
2433You have not then been much about yet?
2433You have probably guessed why I sent for you?
2433You know as well as I do the word has many meanings?
2433You know they say there is a hidden room in the castle, my lady?
2433You think I should make my castle my husband?
2433You will come out with me?
2433You will not be afraid to be left then when I go down?
2433You will not tell me his name?
2433You will take good care of her, Davie?
2433You will try again?
2433You would not care to come there with me?
2433You would not like having to give away your castle-- would you, Arkie?
2433You would wish then to retire, my lord, I presume?
2433You''ve been into it, my lady?--What-- what--?
2433Your uncle?
2433''An''hoo are ye to help it, sir?''
2433''Cause he seesna fit to gie me her I wad hae, is he no to hae his wull o''me?
2433''Did n''t you find a man''s head-- a skull, I mean, upon the premises?''
2433''Did ye show''t ony disrespec''?''
2433''That?''
2433''Then is the head in the way of being buried and dug up again?''
2433''Tis a night for all ghostly lovers To haunt the best- loved spot: Is he come in his dreams to this garden?
2433''What do you want with my child?''
2433''What''s either but an appearance?
2433--But had your uncle given you anything?"
2433--But what is that?"
2433--But, Mr. Grant, why should you make Arkie speak to me too?"
2433--How much did you drink, sir-- if I may make so bold?"
2433--Suppose now a man was unconscious of any ability to do the thing required of him?"
2433--what would you say?"
2433--would that be to believe in me?"
2433A bed in a chapel, and one dead thereon!--how could it be?
2433All the time her acceptance and defence of any doctrine made not the slightest difference to her life-- as indeed how should it?
2433An''syne what wud the earl say?
2433An''what brings the guid man til''s senses, div ye think?
2433And are n''t you going to teach yourself to me?"
2433And now what was she to conclude from his reading the Apocrypha?
2433And was that again the sound he had followed, fainter and farther off than before-- a downy wind- wafted plume from the skirt of some stray harmony?
2433And what would Sophia say?
2433And why did it content him to have only his head above ground?
2433And would it be more mine when I had pulled it to pieces, Davie?"
2433And you ca n''t say he shuffles, for he never stops till he has done his best to make you!--What have you been saying to him, Hector?"
2433And you wo n''t say any wicked things, will you?
2433Anyhow, what was to be done?
2433Are her fair feet bending the grasses?
2433Are they not the children of the tree?"
2433Are we never ta raise the han''to human bein'', think ye?"
2433Are ye comin''in, or are ye no?"
2433Are ye in want o''onything?
2433Are you sure he is not plotting to devour sheep and shepherd together?"
2433At what point did the aberration begin?
2433Because I believe the Bible, do I believe everything that comes from the pulpit?
2433Because she is mine, ought I of necessity to be enslaved to all her accidents?
2433But I dare not ask mistress Brookes whether she saw me--""You do not imagine you were out of the room?"
2433But I s''come to the table.--Wud ye alloo me to speir efter yer name, sir?"
2433But Miss Carmichael, stepping forward, said,"Mr. Grant, I can not let you go till you answer me one question: do you believe in the atonement?"
2433But are you not in danger-- you will pardon me for saying it-- of presumption?--How can all the good people be wrong?"
2433But could the voice be from the spirit- land?
2433But did he know mistress Brookes well enough?
2433But did you come here in the dark?"
2433But do you suppose I would take any situation on such a condition?"
2433But from the deafness burst and trickled a faint doubtful stream: could it be a voice, calling, calling, from a great distance?
2433But his lordship would see him-- and could Mr. Grant find the way himself, for his old bones ached with running up and down those endless stone steps?
2433But how did it get in to my head?"
2433But how was he to return?
2433But how was it?
2433But how would Forgue carry himself?
2433But if Eppy would meet him, how could he or anyone help it?
2433But if that had been the intent, what could the building of a wall, vaguely recollected by mistress Brookes, have been for?
2433But is it not strange the heart should be less ready to believe what seems worth believing?
2433But is there not something in your being able to write a poem like that about a garden such as you had never seen?
2433But noo I hae a fauvour to beg o''ye-- no for my sake but for hers: gien ye hae the warnin'', ye''ll be wi''me whan I gang?
2433But says he,''No, no, you must not go; who knows what it may be?
2433But surely there was hope for that world yet!--for whose were the words in which its indwelling despair grew audible?
2433But tell me one thing, my lord: if my lady''s horse was lame, how was it she did not know?
2433But the gudewife was a religions woman after her fashion-- who can be after any one else''s?
2433But was it ink?
2433But were there not now just as many evils as then?
2433But what can be the use of it?"
2433But what for sud I no say I dinna see''t?
2433But what was he to do?
2433But why should my lord be frightened so?"
2433But why was she so white?
2433But would not you be sorry to lose another mystery?"
2433But you will understand me?"
2433But-- excuse me, Mr. Grant-- you will understand me presently-- are you-- are you quite--?"
2433By degrees one might, you know,--eh?"
2433By their own power?
2433Ca n''t you teach me this great old castle?
2433Ca n''t you understand a fellow?
2433Can God be God and do anything conceivably to blame-- anything that is not altogether beautiful?
2433Can it be that he suspects something?
2433Can ye gie him a nicht''s lodgin''?"
2433Can you imagine what place it might be?"
2433Could anything be done that would not both be and cause a wrong?
2433Could it have been a draught down the pipe of the music- chords?
2433Could it have been drunkenness?
2433Could they have visited all the places whose remembrance lingered in his brain?
2433Could you not turn him loose upon sir Walter Scott?"
2433Did he actually hear the words?
2433Did you ever see an aeolian harp, my lady?"
2433Did you never make yourself unhappy about what might be on its way to you, and wish you could know beforehand something to guide you how to meet it?"
2433Do n''t you know that, besides being himself, and just because he is himself, Jesus is the living picture of God?"
2433Do you believe yourself one to be so trusted?"
2433Do you hear, Grant?
2433Do you know where to find him?"
2433Do you think Jesus came to deliver us from the punishment of our sins?
2433Do you think if the devil could create, his children could ever become the children of God?
2433Do you think it a good law, sir?"
2433Do you think there is any instrument in it from which such a sound might have proceeded?
2433Does God never visit the virtues of the father on the child?
2433Does it always take so much labour?"
2433Donal thought little of such things himself, but did that affect his duty in the matter?
2433Donal''s bosom swelled with delight; then came a sting: was he already forgetting his inextinguishable grief?
2433Examining it with his hands, he believed it the same he had ascended in the morning: even in a great castle, could there be two such royal stairs?
2433Few indeed have reached the point of health to laugh at disease, but are there none?
2433Five hundredth hand rather?
2433For the question had come to him-- might not the music hold some relation with the legend of the lost room?
2433For what can there be in heaven or earth for a soul that believes in an unjust God?
2433For who is a god But the man who can spring Up from the sod, And be his own king?
2433Gien a man ought to defen''himsel'', but disna du''t,''cause he thinks God wadna hae him du''t, wull God lea''him oondefent for that?
2433God bless you!--You will let me think of you as a friend?"
2433God is the causing Nature.--Tell me, is not the music heard only in stormy nights, or at least nights with a good deal of wind?"
2433Grant!--Mustn''t he, Arkie?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Grant?"
2433Had he any right to do anything?
2433Had he in any way been the earl''s companion through such a long night as it seemed?
2433Had he or had he not ever seen the place before?
2433Had he really seen it?
2433Had he remembered the fact, would he not have come to him to attempt securing his complicity?
2433Had he sent her mother to think her full of roses?
2433Had her presence dispelled darkness and death, and restored the lost chapel to the light of day?
2433Had it been slowly coming without his knowing it?
2433Had she haunted it ever since, dead yet alive, watching for his return to pardon him?
2433Had she sought refuge there from some persecutor?
2433Had the woman-- for Donal imagined the form yet showed it the body of a woman-- been carried thither of her own desire, to die in a holy place?
2433Had they not both a claim upon Donal for the truth?
2433Hae ye ony w''y o''approachin''the place?"
2433Haena ye to du as she tells ye?
2433Harper?''
2433Have you any sins, Davie?"
2433Have you been discovering anything more?"
2433Have you brought Simmons with you?"
2433He could hardly believe it?
2433He might be a priest in the temple; but was there not a Samuel in the temple as well as an Eli?
2433He might think little of money, but would he therefore look on while a pocket was picked?
2433He put out his hand to him, and said,"You''ll stand my friend, Grant?"
2433He that hath seen me hath seen the father, and how sayest thou then, Show us the father?''"
2433He thought she needed not have run away as from something dangerous: why did she not pass him like any other servant of the house?
2433He was gazing into a void-- was it not rather a condition of things inappreciable by his senses?
2433Head and all must soon follow.--But how am I to get rid of this plaster without being seen?"
2433His lordship maun be loot ken, as ye say; but wull his lordship believe ye, sir?
2433How can you worship a God who gives you all the little things he does not care much about, but will not do his best for you?"
2433How could he be asleep so early in the night?
2433How could she?
2433How do you know it?"
2433How is a Graeme to serve under a bumpkin?"
2433How is a power to be known but by being a power, and how is it to be a power but in its own exercise of itself?
2433How many would loathe the sin?
2433How many would remain capable of doing all again?
2433How quickest could he go?
2433How should such a one either enjoy or recommend her religion?
2433How then am I made in his image?
2433How then should they be beyond his reach?
2433How was he to feel sure of it?
2433How was she able to love the God she said she believed in?
2433How was she ever to know?
2433How was she to be accepted of God, who did not accept her own neighbour, but looked down, without knowing it, upon so many of her fellow- creatures?
2433How was she to know that he could not even feed himself?
2433How was she to please God, as she called it, who thought of him in a way repulsive to every loving soul?
2433How was she to think aright with scarce a glimmer of God''s truth?
2433How?"
2433I doubt if her love was of the deepest she had to give; but who can tell?
2433I left her fast asleep, and I hope she''ll sleep through it.--Did you ever hear anything strange about the house before we came?''
2433I must think it all over!--It was after his wife''s death, you say?"
2433I thoucht wi''mysel'', is''t possible she disna believe me?
2433I trust you have not brought Davie with you?"
2433I''ll go an''get it, my lady.--But wouldna''t be better for you and me, sir, to get a''that dune by oorsel''s?
2433If I did not do my best for the poor girl, I dared not look my Master in the face!--Where is your honour, my lord?"
2433If I were to make a creature needing all my love to make life endurable to him, and then not be kind enough to him, should I not be cruel?
2433If a fact, how could it have been?
2433If a fancy, how was he so weary?
2433If ever we hear a far- off rumour of angel- visit, it is not from some solitary plain with lonely children?
2433If he thought he was doing so well with Davie, why not send the two away together till things were settled?
2433If she died there, would Donal come one day and find her?
2433If there are in it rogues that look like honest men, how is any one, without a special gift of insight, to be always sure of the honest man?
2433If there should be ever so slight a leaning in the direction, might he not so give a sudden and fatal impulse?
2433If you admire her so much you must have behaved to her so much the more like a genuine lover?
2433If you saw a great dark cloak coming along the road as if it were round somebody, but nobody inside it, you would be frightened-- would you not?"
2433In the epistle to the Galatians, whose child does he speak of as adopted?
2433Is he not the Lord God merciful and gracious?"
2433Is it down in the dungeon of the castle, my lady?"
2433Is it in the farthest corner of the room?
2433Is it necessary to say she was not a weak woman?
2433Is it not enough to know that if the devil were the greater, yet would not God do him homage, but would hang for ever on his cross?
2433Is it not the evil thing?"
2433Is it such?
2433Is it true, Mr. Grant, that you are a dangerous man?
2433Is not the great misery of our life, that those dear to us die?
2433Is that a thing Jesus would have done when he was a little boy?"
2433Is there any way of truly or worthily receiving a message without understanding it?
2433Isna the blin''man to say he''s blin''?"
2433It came as of itself to her lips, and she said,"Mr. Grant, how are we to know what God is like?"
2433It''s agreed I canna be the same: if I canna be the same, I maun aither be less or greater than I was afore: whilk o''them is''t to be?
2433Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip?
2433Ken ye ony dacent, clean place, whaur they wad gie me a room to mysel'', an''no seek mair nor I could pey them?"
2433May not a man well long after personal communication with this or that one of the greatest who have lived before him?
2433Might a man so lose hold of himself as to be no more certain he had ever possessed or could ever possess himself again?
2433Might he not poison her, smother her, kill her somehow, anyhow that was safest?
2433Miss Carmichael looked at lady Arctura as much as to say--"Is he speaking the truth?"
2433Mr. Carmichael was older, and might be more experienced; but did his light shine clearer than Donal''s?
2433Mr. Grant would like to have your advice as to what--.--You''ll come and see them, wo n''t you?"
2433Must God be ever on the cross, that we poor worshippers may pay him our highest honour?
2433Must I, because I love her, hoard her gowns and shoes?"
2433My uncle--""Shall we go into the picture- gallery?"
2433Naebody there?
2433Noo, wad ye no say this was a veesitin''o''the sins o''the father upo''the children?"
2433Now where is the beginning of this marble?"
2433Now you are safe!--You were not afraid, were you?"
2433Now, I ask you, Davie, was it worth while for Jesus to do this for us?
2433Of course Lazarus was going to die again, but can you think his two sisters either loved him less, or wept as much over him the next time he died?"
2433Oh, why would not God tell her something about himself-- something direct-- straight from himself?
2433On the other hand it may have been known to many who held their peace about it.--Would you not like to know the truth concerning that too?"
2433Only the spiritual and the natural blend so that we may one day be astonished!--Would you like to join the music- hunt, my lady?"
2433Only what was a poor girl to do who did not know how to feed herself, but apply to one who pretended to be able to feed others?
2433Opening it-- was it a thinner darkness or the faintest gleam of light he saw?
2433Or gien a body stan''s up i''the name o''God, an''fronts an airmy o''enemies, div ye think God''ill forsake him''cause he''s made a mistak?
2433Or is God less beautiful and good than that?"
2433Or might there not be somebody else?
2433Or was it a stilled human moaning?
2433Ought a woman to get rid of it, or attend to it herself?"
2433Ought the chance to be allowed the nameless youth of marrying his cousin?
2433Ought the next heir to the lordship to go without his title?
2433Sae ye see, sir, we''re like John Sprat an''his wife:--ye''ll ken the bairns''say aboot them?"
2433Said Davie,"Must a woman, Mr. Grant, marry a man she does not love?"
2433Said the worm at his side, Sweet fool, Turn to thy bride; Is the night so cool?
2433Shall I go and fetch Miss Carmichael?"
2433Shall I go on, and see what it is?"
2433Shall I stay to look on her nearer?
2433Shall we leave it for the present?"
2433She did not know she could: how should she?
2433She had been listening intently: was the cloven foot of Mr. Grant''s heresy now at last about to appear plainly?
2433She had heard the music, she said-- very soft: would he go on the roof?
2433She lay quiet, slowly waking to fuller consciousness.--Was there not a strange air, a dull odour in the room?
2433She started: had she not heard it a hundred times before, as she lay there in the dark alone?
2433She tried to unclasp it, but could not: which of her bracelets could it be?
2433Should I be able?"
2433Should he tell the earl, or should he not?
2433Simmons tells me I may have as much coal and wood as I like: will you help me to get them up?"
2433So I can not tell a bit what God is like?
2433So long as she is able still to love, she is never quite to be pitied; but when the reaction comes--?
2433Some ghaists hae a cat- like natur for places, an''what for no for banes?
2433Something must be true: why not the worthy-- oftener at least than the unworthy?
2433Suddenly he stopped: were those the sounds of a scuffle he heard on the road before him?
2433That a wall had been built he did not doubt, for he believed he knew the wall, but why?
2433That which is confessedly false and worth nothing?"
2433That would account for a good deal-- would it not?"
2433That''s no the w''y o''his kingdom!--I suppose there''s nae doobt wha?"
2433The branch which could produce such scions, might well be itself a false graft on the true stem of the family!--if not, what was the family worth?
2433The earl himself wrote in reply, saying-- had he been out of the country that he did not know she was dead and six weeks in her grave?
2433The end must come, and what will it be?
2433The father might have a right to know, but had he a right to know from him?
2433Then how am I to love him?
2433Then how did it get into the place?
2433They''re weel eneuch worth duin''the best I can for them; but the morn''s Sunday, an''what hae ye to put on?"
2433Those high, intense, burning tones-- so soft, yet so certain-- what are they?
2433Unreal knowledge is worse than ignorance.--Would not Miss Graeme be a better friend?"
2433Wad he say things''at he didna mean fowk to un''erstan''whan he said them?"
2433Wad ye direc''me to the manse?"
2433Was God indeed to be reached by the prayers, affected by the needs of men?
2433Was anything required of him?
2433Was he in a terrible dream?
2433Was he not more childlike, more straightforward, more simple, and, she could not but think, more obedient than those?
2433Was he the fool of weariness and excitement, or did he actually hear his own name?
2433Was he to hold his tongue and leave the thing as not his, or to speak out as he would have done had the case been his own?
2433Was it God coming to her?
2433Was it a lost music- tone that had wandered from afar and grown faint?
2433Was it a moan of the river from below?
2433Was it a rude utterance?
2433Was it a vision she had had?
2433Was it anything?
2433Was it not while we were yet sinners that he poured out his soul for us?
2433Was it one of those mysterious sounds he had read of as born in the air itself, and not yet explained of science?
2433Was it then true?
2433Was it there, or had he only imagined it?
2433Was it, I say, a thing worth doing, to let us see that they are alive with God all the time, and can be produced any moment he pleases?"
2433Was not that another glimmer on the floor-- from the back of the room-- through a door he did not remember having seen yesterday?
2433Was she going out of her mind?
2433Was she going to die?
2433Was she there to assure him that he might yet hope for the world to come?
2433Was the man out of his mind, or only a sleep- walker?
2433Was the thing a fact or a fancy?
2433Was there anything very strange about it last night?
2433Was there no sin of murder on his soul?
2433Was this a case of the sins of the father being visited on the child?
2433We know very little about these things; but what if the brain give the opportunity for the action which is to result in freedom?
2433We love one another, not ourselves-- don''t we, Davie?"
2433We will call upon her another day.--It is funny, is n''t it, Davie, to go a bird''s- nesting after music on the roof of a house?"
2433What a priori reason do you see why I should not be able to write verses?
2433What business had ye to come efter me this gait, makin''mischief''atween my lord an''me?
2433What can be o''mair importance nor doin''richt i''the sicht o''God?"
2433What could be done?
2433What could he do?
2433What could he do?
2433What could it mean?
2433What could it mean?
2433What could it mean?
2433What could ye lat me hae''t for by the week?
2433What do you know about horses?"
2433What do you think, Davie?"
2433What does it mean?
2433What for sud I threip''at I oucht to hae her?
2433What for sudna I be disapp''intit as weel as anither?
2433What gives you a right to speak?"
2433What ground could such a parent have to complain of his children?"
2433What had befallen him?
2433What hae we sic as yersel''set ower''s for, gien it binna to haud''s i''the straicht path o''what we''re to believe an''no to believe?
2433What idea can a man have of religion who knows nothing of it except from what he hears at church?"
2433What if I imagine myself set in charge over young minds and hearts?
2433What if I know you better than the good man whose friendship for your parents gives him a kind interest in you?
2433What if there should come to him no answer?
2433What if there should, without the brain, be no means of working our liberty?
2433What is the imagination here for?"
2433What king was it, sir, that made the law that no lady, however disagreeable, was to have her ears boxed?
2433What matters the word but for the spirit?
2433What might be the cause of it?
2433What might not a man in the mental and moral condition of the earl, unrestrained by law or conscience, risk to secure the property for his son?
2433What ought he to attempt?
2433What salary do you want?"
2433What should he do?
2433What was Donal to do or think now?
2433What was he then?"
2433What was he to do?
2433What was he to do?
2433What was he to do?
2433What was it I told you?"
2433What was it to him?
2433What was it?
2433What was it?
2433What was required of him?
2433What would the earl think of him?
2433What''s a poet?"
2433What''s any thing of all the damned humbug but appearance?
2433Whaur wull ye be?"
2433When at last he lay quiet,"Will you promise to walk out if I let you up?"
2433When he calls my name shall I not answer?"
2433When he puts joy in my heart, shall I not be glad?
2433When he stopped,--"Now have you eased your mind?"
2433When it was ready,"Now, my lord,"said Donal,"will you come?"
2433When what may be makes no show, what more natural than to imagine about it?
2433When you are my teacher, Davie, I try-- don''t I-- to do everything you tell me?"
2433Whence then this sense of something akin to shame?
2433Where is the refuge of the child who fears his father?
2433Where was the use of giving in, when I kept her in hand so easily that way?
2433Who dared make changes in his house?
2433Who knows what the thing we call air is?
2433Who would know the shape of a chair who took his idea of it from its shadow on the floor?
2433Whose fault is that?"
2433Why did n''t you come and wake me, Davie, my boy?"
2433Why had he such a fancy for his old bones?
2433Why her mother?
2433Why say all you think?"
2433Why should I fear the best thing that, in its time, can come to me?
2433Why should he be ashamed of anything coming upon him from without?
2433Why should he move?
2433Why should she only hear of him at second hand-- always and always?
2433Why should the dead haunt their bones as if to make sure of having their own again?"
2433Why should we draw his plough?"
2433Why should you compel a confession of my faith?"
2433Why should you want to learn me?"
2433Why should you want to write one?"
2433Will it be in the library?"
2433Without means, what was he to do?
2433Would God leave his creature who trusted in him at the mercy of a chance-- of a glass of wine taken in ignorance?
2433Would I not be to blame?
2433Would his factor otherwise have dared such liberties with him, the lady''s guardian?
2433Would his wife so receive him at the last with forgiveness and endearment?
2433Would it have been a breach of your promise if you had gone to the castle on some service to the man you almost murdered?
2433Would she be prudent, or spoil everything by precipitation?
2433Would she claim his promise thence, tempting him thither?
2433Would she start and vanish away?
2433Would that be like a father?
2433Would the souls of the mariners shipwrecked this night go forth into the ceaseless turmoil?
2433Would they then be victorious over God, too strong for him to overcome-- beyond the reach of repentance?

2433You did n''t think I was afraid of him?"
2433You did not really see anything, did you?"
2433You do n''t mind, do you?"
2433You have testimonials?"
2433You said you heard the music in your own room: would you let me look about in it a little?
2433You say he hears prayer: why should n''t you ask him?
2433You threaten to leave the house-- can you pay for a railway- ticket?"
2433You will not obey my orders: am I to obey yours?"
2433You''ll do as you please-- will you?
2433and I think that is what we must come to.--But where shall we bury them?--where they lie, or in the garden?"
2433and on the altar what was hardly more than the dusty shadow of a baby?"
2433and once in possession of the property, who would dispute the title?
2433and why then should I want to hurt him?"
2433are you?
2433but because you love his memory must I regard him as a Solon?
2433could she be down in the chapel?
2433cried his lordship almost eagerly;"you intend giving your life to teaching?"
2433cried his lordship, glad to turn at right angles from the path of the conversation;"you do n''t surely believe in that legendary personage?"
2433did you say, Stephen?

2433he asked reproachfully:"do you not feel well?"
2433he kept repeating to himself; but what was it?
2433or how far can it be called free, consistently with the notion of a God over all?"
2433repeated the clergyman, with something very like a sneer;"--but what if I think that all a very great deal?
2433returned Andrew,"what ken ye aboot what''s no i''scriptur''?
2433said Donal sternly,"if you saw any impropriety in the ceremony, why did you perform it?
2433said Donal:"what could necromancy, which is one of the branches of magic, do for one at the best?"
2433second hand?
2433she''ll get it the easier oot o''her hert?

2433that to know yourself may be your hell?
2433that you may come to make it your first care to forget what you are?
2433thought Donal with himself;"an old withered grief looks almost as pitiful as an old withered joy!--But who is to say either is withered?
2433wha ever saw him cheenge word wi''brither man?"
2433what else are we offered in Jesus but the absolutely human?
2433what is that behind you?"
2433what was that shape in the middle?--what was that on the black pillow?--what was that thick line stretching towards one of the head- posts?
2433what were your parents?"
2433what''s come o''the bairn?''
