7196 | AIN''T it gay? |
7196 | Say-- boys, do n''t say anything about it, and some time when they''re around, I''ll come up to you and say,''Joe, got a pipe? 7196 Say? |
7196 | That''s just the way with me, hain''t it, Huck? 7196 Well, the things is ours, anyway, ai n''t they?" |
7196 | Well, we''ll let the cry- baby go home to his mother, wo n''t we, Huck? 7196 Well, what would you do?" |
7196 | What makes the candle blow so? |
7196 | What sail''s she carrying? |
7196 | What would the boys say if they could see us? |
7196 | Who? |
7196 | And when we tell''em we learned when we was off pirating, wo n''t they wish they''d been along?" |
7196 | Do n''t you remember, Huck,''bout me saying that?" |
7196 | Do n''t you remember, Huck? |
7196 | How''d you feel to light on a rotten chest full of gold and silver-- hey?" |
7196 | How''d you get around it?" |
7196 | Now I wonder what?" |
7196 | Poor thing-- does it want to see its mother? |
7196 | Presently Huck said:"What does pirates have to do?" |
7196 | Then a guarded voice said:"Who goes there?" |
7196 | We''ll stay, wo n''t we, Huck? |
7196 | We''ll stay, wo n''t we?" |
7196 | What right had the friendless to complain? |
7196 | You like it here, do n''t you, Huck? |
7196 | You''ve heard me talk just that way-- haven''t you, Huck? |
7193 | Did n''t you want to go in a- swimming, Tom? |
7193 | Hang the boy, ca n''t I never learn anything? 7193 Like it? |
7193 | No-- is that so? 7193 Oh come, now, you do n''t mean to let on that you LIKE it?" |
7193 | Oh, you think you''re mighty smart, DON''T you? 7193 Powerful warm, warn''t it?" |
7193 | Well why do n''t you DO it then? 7193 Well why do n''t you DO it? |
7193 | Well why do n''t you? |
7193 | Well, you SAID you''d do it-- why do n''t you do it? |
7193 | What do I care for your big brother? 7193 What''s gone with that boy, I wonder? |
7193 | What, a''ready? 7193 Why, ai n''t THAT work?" |
7193 | Ah, how would she feel then? |
7193 | Ai n''t he played me tricks enough like that for me to be looking out for him by this time? |
7193 | Ben said:"Hello, old chap, you got to work, hey?" |
7193 | But my goodness, he never plays them alike, two days, and how is a body to know what''s coming? |
7193 | But of course you''d druther WORK-- wouldn''t you? |
7193 | Do n''t you wish you could? |
7193 | Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?" |
7193 | He said:"May n''t I go and play now, aunt?" |
7193 | He wondered if she would pity him if she knew? |
7193 | How much have you done?" |
7193 | Now do n''t you see how I''m fixed? |
7193 | Or would she turn coldly away like all the hollow world? |
7193 | Said she:"Tom, it was middling warm in school, warn''t it?" |
7193 | See?" |
7193 | Then Tom said:"What''s your name?" |
7193 | Then she had a new inspiration:"Tom, you did n''t have to undo your shirt collar where I sewed it, to pump on your head, did you? |
7193 | Tom contemplated the boy a bit, and said:"What do you call work?" |
7193 | Was the sacred presence there? |
7193 | What IS that truck?" |
7193 | What do you keep SAYING you will for? |
7193 | What you been doing in there?" |
7193 | Why do n''t you DO it? |
7193 | Would she cry, and wish that she had a right to put her arms around his neck and comfort him? |
7193 | You think you''re SOME, now, DON''T you? |
7197 | And Joe? |
7197 | And me, too? |
7197 | And me? |
7197 | And then-- and then-- well I wo n''t be certain, but it seems like as if you made Sid go and-- and--"Well? 7197 Are you sure you did, Tom?" |
7197 | Auntie, what have I done? |
7197 | Benjamin Rogers, did you tear this book? |
7197 | DID you kiss me, Tom? |
7197 | Did you? 7197 Gracie Miller?" |
7197 | How could I know you was looking at anything? |
7197 | I did come-- didn''t you see me? |
7197 | Joseph Harper, did you? |
7197 | Oh, may I come? |
7197 | Oh, you do, do you? 7197 Say, now, would you, if you''d thought of it?" |
7197 | Susan Harper, did you do this? |
7197 | Well, try to recollect-- can''t you? |
7197 | What bark? |
7197 | What did you come for, then? |
7197 | What did you kiss me for, Tom? |
7197 | Would you, Tom? |
7197 | And then what? |
7197 | But it ai n''t reasonable; because, why did n''t you tell me, child?" |
7197 | Did you dream any more?" |
7197 | Did you? |
7197 | I wo n''t ever, ever do that way again, as long as ever I live-- please make up, wo n''t you?" |
7197 | That''s something, ai n''t it?" |
7197 | The first composition that was read was one entitled"Is this, then, Life?" |
7197 | The master scanned the ranks of boys-- considered a while, then turned to the girls:"Amy Lawrence?" |
7197 | Then he spoke:"Who tore this book?" |
7197 | Tom thought,"Oh, hang her, ai n''t I ever going to get rid of her?" |
7197 | Tom was so stunned that he had not even presence of mind enough to say"Who cares, Miss Smarty?" |
7197 | Well? |
7197 | What did I make him do, Tom? |
7197 | What did I make him do?" |
7197 | What did he say, Tom?" |
7197 | What did you dream?" |
7197 | When is it going to be?" |
7197 | Where did you sit?" |
7197 | Who''s going to give it?" |
7197 | You going to have all the girls and boys?" |
7197 | You holler''nough, do you? |
7197 | you bad girl, why did n''t you come to Sunday- school?" |
7200 | And kill them? |
7200 | Ca n''t let me in, Tom? 7200 Have the which?" |
7200 | Hey, Huck!--you hear that? |
7200 | Huck, I would n''t want to, and I DON''T want to-- but what would people say? 7200 Is it far in the cave? |
7200 | NOW where''s your Number Two? 7200 Now, Tom, hain''t you always ben friendly to me? |
7200 | Secret about what, Sid? |
7200 | Sid, was it you that told? |
7200 | Sid, what ails Tom? |
7200 | Tom, have you got on the track of that money again? |
7200 | Tom-- honest injun, now-- is it fun, or earnest? |
7200 | Well, what? |
7200 | What orgies? |
7200 | What''s a ransom? |
7200 | What''s that? |
7200 | Why? |
7200 | Will you, Tom-- now will you? 7200 YOU followed him?" |
7200 | ''UNDER THE CROSS,''hey? |
7200 | Ai n''t you and the widow good friends?" |
7200 | And who''ll we rob?" |
7200 | Are you strong enough?" |
7200 | But do you see that white place up yonder where there''s been a landslide? |
7200 | Did n''t you let me go for a pirate?" |
7200 | Did this drop fall patiently during five thousand years to be ready for this flitting human insect''s need? |
7200 | Do n''t you remember you was to watch there that night?" |
7200 | Do you see that? |
7200 | Got bricks in it?--or old metal?" |
7200 | Has everything a purpose and a mission? |
7200 | Injun Joe was believed to have killed five citizens of the village, but what of that? |
7200 | Just as they were about to move on, the Welshman stepped out and said:"Hallo, who''s that?" |
7200 | Now, what''s that for? |
7200 | Oh, good- licks; are you in real dead- wood earnest, Tom?" |
7200 | Say-- ain''t this grease and clay, on your clothes?" |
7200 | Tom Sawyer''s Gang-- it sounds splendid, do n''t it, Huck?" |
7200 | Tom poured the mass of yellow coin upon the table and said:"There-- what did I tell you? |
7200 | What do you want to be afraid for?" |
7200 | What was the matter with you, Tom?" |
7200 | What''s all this blow- out about, anyway?" |
7200 | When do you say?" |
7200 | When you going to start the gang and turn robbers?" |
7200 | Will you go in there with me and help get it out?" |
7200 | You would n''t do that, now, WOULD you, Tom?" |
7200 | You would n''t shet me out, would you, Tom? |
7200 | and has it another important object to accomplish ten thousand years to come? |
7200 | and leave the treasure?" |
7200 | what do you want to slope for?" |
7199 | Can you find the way, Tom? 7199 Could you see the rags by the light of the cigars?" |
7199 | Do it NOW? 7199 Do you remember this?" |
7199 | How''ll she ever know? |
7199 | How? |
7199 | I wonder how long we''ve been down here, Tom? 7199 Joe Harper, have you seen my Tom this morning?" |
7199 | Kill? 7199 Lordy, what did you do? |
7199 | Say, Tom, did you see that box? |
7199 | Tom, it might be dark then-- would they notice we had n''t come? |
7199 | Well, Becky? |
7199 | What!--what''d you see, Tom? |
7199 | What''s the row there? 7199 When did you see him last?" |
7199 | When would they miss us, Tom? |
7199 | Why, who are you? |
7199 | Yes,with a startled look--"didn''t she stay with you last night?" |
7199 | Your Becky? |
7199 | And company there? |
7199 | And why should he give it up, he reasoned-- the signal did not come the night before, so why should it be any more likely to come to- night? |
7199 | But what could she be crying about? |
7199 | But what did give you that turn? |
7199 | But why do n''t you want it known?" |
7199 | But you could n''t see what they were like, in the dark, lad, I suppose?" |
7199 | By- and- by somebody shouted:"Who''s ready for the cave?" |
7199 | Did he wake up?" |
7199 | Did you hear that?" |
7199 | Do n''t you see, now, what''s the matter with that ha''nted room?" |
7199 | Do you understand that? |
7199 | HORSEWHIPPED!--do you understand? |
7199 | Huck started up in bed, wild- eyed:"What? |
7199 | If she bleeds to death, is that my fault? |
7199 | Maybe ALL the Temperance Taverns have got a ha''nted room, hey, Huck?" |
7199 | Now, where you going to sleep?" |
7199 | Now-- this way-- now you see, do n''t you?" |
7199 | The old man promised secrecy once more, and said:"How did you come to follow these fellows, lad? |
7199 | Then Becky reflected a moment and said:"But what will mamma say?" |
7199 | Then he said:"Becky, can you bear it if I tell you something?" |
7199 | They found none, but captured a bulky bundle of--"Of WHAT?" |
7199 | Was it Tom Sawyer that found it?" |
7199 | Was there any use? |
7199 | Was there really any use? |
7199 | Were they looking suspicious?" |
7199 | What do you want?" |
7199 | What was it?" |
7199 | What were YOU expecting we''d found?" |
7199 | Who said anything about killing? |
7199 | Who''d''a''thought such a thing? |
7199 | Who''s banging? |
7199 | Why call Tom now? |
7199 | Why did n''t you come and wake me?" |
7199 | Why not give it up and turn in? |
7199 | Why, what''s the MATTER with you?" |
7199 | You go back and watch that long, will you?" |
7199 | Your mother wo n''t know, and so what''s the harm? |
7195 | Do you though? |
7195 | Hucky, do you das''t to go if I lead? |
7195 | Look here, what does this mean? |
7195 | Lord, how is this, Joe? |
7195 | No--''tain''t so, is it? |
7195 | Now, sir, what did you want to treat that poor dumb beast so, for? |
7195 | Then art thou indeed that famous outlaw? 7195 They do, do they?" |
7195 | Tom, what on earth ails that cat? |
7195 | Tom,whispered Huckleberry,"does this keep us from EVER telling--ALWAYS?" |
7195 | What are you talking about? 7195 What did you do it for?" |
7195 | What is it, Huck? |
7195 | What is it, Tom? |
7195 | What is it? |
7195 | What you got on your mind, Tom? |
7195 | What''s the reason he do n''t know it? |
7195 | What''s verdigrease? |
7195 | Which of us does he mean? |
7195 | Who art thou that dares to hold such language? |
7195 | Who''s accused you? |
7195 | Who? 7195 Why did n''t you leave? |
7195 | You DO? |
7195 | After another reflective silence, Tom said:"Hucky, you sure you can keep mum?" |
7195 | By and by their pulses slowed down, and Tom whispered:"Huckleberry, what do you reckon''ll come of this?" |
7195 | Can you pray?" |
7195 | Could it be possible that she was not aware that he was there? |
7195 | D''you reckon he could see anything? |
7195 | D''you reckon he knowed anything?" |
7195 | Did he before?" |
7195 | Did n''t Gracie Miller fall in the kitchen fire and burn herself terrible the very next Saturday?" |
7195 | Did n''t you hear it?" |
7195 | Did you think I''d forget? |
7195 | Do n''t you remember? |
7195 | He saw Injun Joe, and exclaimed:"Oh, Injun Joe, you promised me you''d never--""Is that your knife?" |
7195 | How can he tell?" |
7195 | It''s awful solemn like, AIN''T it?" |
7195 | NOW who can he mean?" |
7195 | S''pose something happened and Injun Joe DIDN''T hang? |
7195 | So he said in a whisper:"Hucky, do you believe the dead people like it for us to be here?" |
7195 | Tell WHAT? |
7195 | Tell me, Joe-- HONEST, now, old feller-- did I do it? |
7195 | Then Tom whispered:"Say, Hucky-- do you reckon Hoss Williams hears us talking?" |
7195 | Think they''ll see us?" |
7195 | Tom thought a while, then he said:"Who''ll tell? |
7195 | We''d drop down dead-- don''t YOU know that?" |
7195 | We?" |
7195 | What did make him act so?" |
7195 | What did you want to come here for?" |
7195 | What had he done? |
7195 | What has that got to do with it?" |
7195 | What if he turned his back, now, and disappeared mysteriously? |
7195 | What is it you''ll tell?" |
7195 | What kin they be up to?" |
7195 | What''ll we do?" |
7195 | What''s that?" |
7195 | Where''bouts is it, Huck?" |
7195 | Who comes here into Sherwood Forest without my pass?" |
7195 | Who does he mean?" |
7195 | Who?" |
7195 | Why do n''t you fall yourself? |
7195 | Why do n''t you fall?" |
7195 | Why had he not been called-- persecuted till he was up, as usual? |
7195 | You WON''T tell, WILL you, Joe?" |
7194 | Becky, wo n''t you say something? |
7194 | Did he say anything? |
7194 | Do you? 7194 Everybody?" |
7194 | Good for? 7194 Have you? |
7194 | In the daytime? |
7194 | Kiss? 7194 Like? |
7194 | Look here, Joe Harper, whose is that tick? |
7194 | Oh, auntie, I''m--"What''s the matter with you-- what is the matter with you, child? |
7194 | Oh, will you? 7194 Oh, you do n''t, do n''t you? |
7194 | Say, Hucky, when you going to try the cat? |
7194 | Say-- what is dead cats good for, Huck? |
7194 | Shall I tell YOU? |
7194 | Tom, why did n''t you wake me sooner? 7194 Was you ever at a circus?" |
7194 | Well, what of it? 7194 Well, why do n''t you? |
7194 | What did you give? |
7194 | What was it? |
7194 | What''ll you give? |
7194 | What''ll you take for her? |
7194 | What''ll you take for him? |
7194 | What''s that you got? |
7194 | What''s that? |
7194 | Where''d you get him? |
7194 | Where''d you get the blue ticket? |
7194 | Why, what''s the matter, Tom? 7194 With his face to the stump?" |
7194 | Would you like to? |
7194 | You wo n''t tell anybody at all? 7194 You would n''t, would n''t you? |
7194 | At last he said:"Is it genuwyne?" |
7194 | At the door Tom dropped back a step and accosted a Sunday- dressed comrade:"Say, Billy, got a yaller ticket?" |
7194 | But say-- how do you cure''em with dead cats?" |
7194 | But you must n''t ever tell anybody-- WILL you, Tom? |
7194 | But you''ve another one I daresay, and you''ll tell it to me, wo n''t you?" |
7194 | By jings, do n''t you wish you was Jeff?" |
7194 | D''you ever try it, Huck?" |
7194 | D''you ever try it?" |
7194 | Did n''t they get him Saturday night?" |
7194 | Do you go home to dinner?" |
7194 | Do you remember what I wrote on the slate?" |
7194 | Ever, as long as you live?" |
7194 | He said to himself, it is not possible that the boy can answer the simplest question-- why DID the Judge ask him? |
7194 | He said:"Do you love rats?" |
7194 | How did he know she was a- witching him?" |
7194 | How long you been this way?" |
7194 | How many of my readers would have the industry and application to memorize two thousand verses, even for a Dore Bible? |
7194 | Is that so? |
7194 | Lemme go with you?" |
7194 | Now you wo n''t, WILL you?" |
7194 | Now, sir, why are you late again, as usual?" |
7194 | Say, Becky, was you ever engaged?" |
7194 | Say-- what''s that?" |
7194 | So all this row was because you thought you''d get to stay home from school and go a- fishing? |
7194 | The master said:"You-- you did what?" |
7194 | Tom, what is the matter?" |
7194 | Tom, what''s the matter with you?" |
7194 | What do you kiss for?" |
7194 | What is it like?" |
7194 | What is it?" |
7194 | What is the matter, Tom?" |
7194 | What''s the matter with your tooth?" |
7194 | What''s your name?" |
7194 | What''s your way?" |
7194 | What''s yours? |
7194 | When I''m gone--""Oh, Tom, you ai n''t dying, are you? |
7194 | When?" |
7194 | Where''d you get him?" |
7194 | Why do n''t you tell me, Mary?--what do you want to be so mean for?" |
7194 | Will you meow?" |
7194 | Will you?" |
7194 | Wo n''t you tell us the names of the first two that were appointed?" |
7194 | You call me Tom, will you?" |
7198 | ''Bout what? |
7198 | Any one with you? |
7198 | Do n''t they come after it any more? |
7198 | Do they hop? |
7198 | Get me to tell? 7198 Have you got one of them papers, Tom?" |
7198 | Huck, have you ever told anybody about-- that? |
7198 | HyroQwhich? |
7198 | Is it under all of them? |
7198 | Never a word? |
7198 | No? |
7198 | Revenge? 7198 Richard? |
7198 | Save it? 7198 Say, Huck, if we find a treasure here, what you going to do with your share?" |
7198 | Talk? 7198 Then how you going to know which one to go for?" |
7198 | Thomas Sawyer, where were you on the seventeenth of June, about the hour of midnight? |
7198 | Well then, how you going to find the marks? |
7198 | Well, I never said I was, did I? 7198 Well, ai n''t you going to save any of it?" |
7198 | Well, what did you say they did, for? |
7198 | Well, what of that? 7198 Well-- if you say so; what''ll we do with this-- bury it again?" |
7198 | Were you anywhere near Horse Williams''grave? |
7198 | Were you hidden, or not? |
7198 | What ai n''t a dream? |
7198 | What is it? |
7198 | What is it? |
7198 | What is the talk around, Huck? 7198 What''ll it be?" |
7198 | What''s a YEW bow? |
7198 | What''s that?. |
7198 | Where''ll we dig? |
7198 | Where? |
7198 | Who hides it? |
7198 | Why, is it hid all around? |
7198 | Why, robbers, of course-- who''d you reckon? 7198 After a pause:Huck, they could n''t anybody get you to tell, could they?" |
7198 | Anyway, what''s her name, Tom?" |
7198 | But anyway they do n''t come around in the daytime, so what''s the use of our being afeard?" |
7198 | But say-- where you going to dig first?" |
7198 | But wo n''t the widow take it away from us, Tom? |
7198 | Can you get out?" |
7198 | Did they fight?" |
7198 | Did this attorney mean to throw away his client''s life without an effort? |
7198 | Do n''t you feel sorry for him, sometimes?" |
7198 | Do you know Robin Hood, Huck?" |
7198 | Do you reckon they can be up- stairs?" |
7198 | Follow? |
7198 | Hain''t you ever seen one, Huck?" |
7198 | Have you heard anybody?--seen anybody? |
7198 | He gathered himself up cursing, and his comrade said:"Now what''s the use of all that? |
7198 | Hear it?" |
7198 | How near were you?" |
7198 | How''s that?" |
7198 | Huck said:"Do they always bury it as deep as this?" |
7198 | If it''s anybody, and they''re up there, let them STAY there-- who cares? |
7198 | If they want to jump down, now, and get into trouble, who objects? |
7198 | Is that so?" |
7198 | Now what you going to do?" |
7198 | Presently he said:"Who could have brought those tools here? |
7198 | S''pose we tackle that old dead- limb tree on the hill t''other side of Still- House branch?" |
7198 | Sunday- school sup''rintendents?" |
7198 | The poor fellow had got the attorney to promise secrecy, but what of that? |
7198 | Tom was impatient to go to the haunted house; Huck was measurably so, also-- but suddenly said:"Lookyhere, Tom, do you know what day it is?" |
7198 | What business has a pick and a shovel here? |
7198 | What business with fresh earth on them? |
7198 | What did you take there?" |
7198 | What do you reckon it is?" |
7198 | What do you think?" |
7198 | What for?" |
7198 | What makes you ask?" |
7198 | What you going to do with yourn, Tom?" |
7198 | What''ll we do with what little swag we''ve got left?" |
7198 | What''s his other name?" |
7198 | What''s the name of the gal?" |
7198 | Who brought them here-- and where are they gone? |
7198 | Who did he rob?" |
7198 | Who''s Robin Hood?" |
7198 | You mean Number One?" |
7198 | bury it again and leave them to come and see the ground disturbed? |
7198 | have I been asleep?" |
2370 | Allow me to ask, are you a minister of the gospel, and stir up a child against her own father? |
2370 | An''hoo wan ye here? |
2370 | An''what for no an angel? |
2370 | An''what''s my chop but my hoose? 2370 An''whaur''s yer dummie?" |
2370 | An''yersel''? |
2370 | An''yet,argued Robert,"ye''ll tak thoucht aboot an auld umbrell? |
2370 | And what is that, Donal? |
2370 | And what right has any such fellow to bid my daughter good- bye? 2370 Are they not in fact wasting the rocks away by slow degrees?" |
2370 | Are you sure there are no holes-- full of water, down there? |
2370 | As Mistress Bonniman''s, for enstance? |
2370 | Ay,answered Janet, sending for the serpent to aid the dove;"an''what may be yer wull wi''him?" |
2370 | Boy,said the laird, rolling his eyes, more unsteady than usual with indignation, in the direction of Gibbie,"what have you to say for yourself?" |
2370 | But do n''t you see them? |
2370 | But michtna the Maister himsel''forgie her? |
2370 | But might not some be frightened by it, and brought to repentance, Donal? |
2370 | But what can he dee? 2370 But what had ye to say till him?" |
2370 | But what is good time? |
2370 | But where''s Mistress Mac Farlane? |
2370 | But why did you make your appointment here? |
2370 | But would n''t you like to have a wife, Donal, and children, like your father and mother? |
2370 | Can ye hear? |
2370 | Can ye read, cratur? |
2370 | Canna ye come ower, Donal? |
2370 | Canna ye speyk, man? |
2370 | Did ye that, man? 2370 Div ye believe this, Robert''--at we''re a''ane, jist ane, in Christ Jesus?" |
2370 | Div ye hear yon burn efter ye gang to yer bed, mem? |
2370 | Div ye railly think it, mem? |
2370 | Div ye railly think''at there is sic craturs as broonies, Mistress Jean? |
2370 | Div ye think the burn''s ony happier i''the summer, mem? |
2370 | Div ye want me to say, mem? |
2370 | Do you desire me to tell you, papa, why I thought it might be painful to you to make that young man''s acquaintance? |
2370 | Do you think it''s Latin, Nicie? |
2370 | Fergus,returned the laird,"do you imagine things inanimate can of themselves change their relations in space? |
2370 | Forby( besides), sir,he went on,"gien tongues didna wag, what w''y wad you,''at has to set a''thing richt, come to ken what was wrang?" |
2370 | Gibbie,resumed Sir George, after a brief pause,"div ye ken what fowk''ll ca''ye whan I''m deid?" |
2370 | Gien the j''ists be strang, an''weel set intil the wa''s, what for sudna ye tak the horse up the stair intil yer bedrooms? 2370 Ginevra, you do n''t mean you would?" |
2370 | Has the ill- guideship ta''en the tongue frae''i m, think ye? |
2370 | He kens the toon as weel''s ony rottan kens the drains o''''t.--But whaur div ye pit up? |
2370 | Hoo cam he by the bonnie nickname? |
2370 | Hoo cam ye to tyne yer bairn, wuman? |
2370 | Hoo ken ye, mither, she''ll be soary for''t? |
2370 | Hoo likit ye the sermon, mem? |
2370 | Hoo wad I du that, laddie? 2370 Hoo wad ye dee that?" |
2370 | Hoo''s that, mem? |
2370 | How am I to do that, Donal? 2370 How can I tell you what you should call a creature that has no existence?" |
2370 | How do you do, Sir Gilbert? |
2370 | How old are you to- day? |
2370 | I am sorry I have hurt you,said the minister, not a little relieved at the sound;"but how dared you write such a-- such an insolence? |
2370 | I ask you, Joseph,answered the laird,"what this-- this outbreak of superstition imports? |
2370 | I ca n''t go with you,said Mrs. Sclater,"for I expect my husband every moment; but what occasion is there, with two such knights to protect you?" |
2370 | I cud gie ye sicht o''''i m, I daursay, but what better wad ye be for that? 2370 I dinna doobt ye wad sweir; but what neist?" |
2370 | I have been waiting for it, and now it is time, and why should I wait still? |
2370 | I should be sorry to have hurt you.--Going to college, I presume, Sir Gilbert? |
2370 | If they do n''t know what they are about, how can you be so foolish as talk of their design? |
2370 | Ir ye gauin''to hang me, ye she- deevil? |
2370 | Is anything the matter, papa? |
2370 | Is he a good boy, Mistress Grant? |
2370 | Is it possible your duplicity reaches so far? |
2370 | Is n''t it now? 2370 Is she a sinner?" |
2370 | Is there no means of getting at him, my good woman? |
2370 | Is this a day to be thinkin''o''warl''''s gear? |
2370 | Is''t lang sin''ye lost him? |
2370 | Isna that jist what ye micht be singin''yersel'', efter what ye was sayin''last nicht? 2370 It''s the muckle quarry, mem,"answered Donal:"div ye no ken that? |
2370 | Ken ye a place they ca''--Daurside? |
2370 | Ken''i m? 2370 Lassie,"said her mother solemnly,"ye dinna surely think''at the Lord''s forgifness is to lat fowk aff ohn repentit? |
2370 | Me a minnister? |
2370 | Ow, guid dale fleers-- what ither? |
2370 | Ow, is he there? |
2370 | Should I say brownie, papa? |
2370 | That''s what they ca''ye, is''t? |
2370 | The meanin''o''what, sir? |
2370 | Then,returned Ginny, quite satisfied,"would you mind telling me what book you were reading?" |
2370 | There''s nane ta''en, nor like to be,answered the woman.--"Ken ye a place they ca''Mains o''Glashruach?" |
2370 | Think what? |
2370 | Wad ye ken''i m again gien ye saw''i m? |
2370 | Wad ye like a drink o''milk? |
2370 | Wad ye like to hear''t again? |
2370 | Wad ye no tak my airm, mem? |
2370 | Wad ye no tak up the carpets first, wuman? |
2370 | Wadna ye think me some fule to hearken till ye? |
2370 | Was ye oot o''meal? |
2370 | Well, but, Donal, can a man be a burn? |
2370 | Wha ca''d ye that? |
2370 | Wha did it, than? |
2370 | Wha kens what there is an''what there isna? |
2370 | Wha wad hae thoucht we wad hae to lea''the rock to win oot o''the water? 2370 Wha was sayin''onything aboot merryin''or giein''in merriage, Robert? |
2370 | Wha''s that ye''re colloguin''wi'', Mysie? |
2370 | Whan saw ye Donal? |
2370 | What are ye efter, Janet? |
2370 | What are you looking at up there? |
2370 | What comes o''yer seemile than, anent the vainity o''their endeevour? 2370 What do you say to mother?" |
2370 | What foolish person has been insinuating such contemptible superstition into your silly head? |
2370 | What for no, Robert? |
2370 | What for sud ye, in that case, gang on preachin'', sae settin''them an ill exemple? |
2370 | What for that, lassie? |
2370 | What garred the Maister say onything aboot it than? |
2370 | What have they done to ye, my bairn? |
2370 | What have you got there? |
2370 | What have you got to do with it? |
2370 | What ill''ill that dee me, mem? |
2370 | What is it, Donal? |
2370 | What is the matter with you, Nicie? |
2370 | What is the meaning of this, Joseph? |
2370 | What is your name? |
2370 | What is''t yer wull''at we ca''ye, than, cratur? |
2370 | What kin''o''a din dis''t mak''? |
2370 | What learned him that? |
2370 | What mean ye by that? |
2370 | What neist but ye''ll lowse my han''s? |
2370 | What sort of a woman? |
2370 | What sort of lad is this son of yours? 2370 What the devil does this mean? |
2370 | What think ye, Maister Fergus, you''at''s gauin''to be a minister? |
2370 | What wad ye hae me perswaud him till, sir? 2370 What was aboot him ye wad ken sae weel?" |
2370 | What was it all about? |
2370 | What was yer father, cratur? |
2370 | What will you do when you are a minister? |
2370 | What''s Euclid, Nicie? |
2370 | What''s come o''the laddie? |
2370 | What''s that''at ye ca''oor lives, Robert? 2370 What''s that, Donal?" |
2370 | What''s the eese o''lo''denin''yersel''wi''the umbrell? |
2370 | What''s yer wull, noo''at ye are here? |
2370 | What''s yer wull, sir? |
2370 | What''s yer wull? |
2370 | Whaur are ye gauin'', Robert? |
2370 | Whaur come ye frae? |
2370 | Whaur come ye frae? |
2370 | Whaur come ye frae?--Wha''s yer fowk?--Whaur div ye bide?--Haena ye a tongue i''yer heid, ye rascal? |
2370 | Whaur did ye get it? |
2370 | Whaur div ye think o''gauin''? |
2370 | Why did n''t he speak up then, and defend himself, and not be so damned obstinate? |
2370 | Why do n''t you speak, you fool? |
2370 | Why do you ask me? |
2370 | Why should I make both him and you uncomfortable, papa-- when there was not going to be anything more of it? |
2370 | Why should n''t we go now, Nicie? 2370 Why then do you go hankering after him still, and refusing Mr. Duff? |
2370 | Why!--What!--Are you aware of what you are saying, sir? |
2370 | Will you go with me to Mr. Torrie to- day? |
2370 | Will you never have done masquerading, Jenny? |
2370 | Wo n''t I, Gibbie? 2370 Ye ken him than, laddie?" |
2370 | Ye ken, of coorse,he happened to say,"''at Gibbie''s wi''Maister Sclater?" |
2370 | Ye wadna be my lady yersel'', wad ye, mem? |
2370 | Ye''re luikin''efter Angus? |
2370 | Ye''re no angry at me for ca''in ye by yer name? 2370 Ye''re no cauld, are ye, mem?" |
2370 | Ye''re no gauin to kill me, Rob Grant? |
2370 | You do not mean,he spelled very hurriedly,"that you would marry me?--Me? |
2370 | ( lark) THE MAN SAYS: Laverock i''the lift,( sky) Hae ye nae sang- thrift,''At ye scatter''t sae heigh, an''lat it a''drift? |
2370 | --"Whaur got ye''i m?" |
2370 | --who could tell? |
2370 | A business call? |
2370 | A fearful remembrance of the blow he had given him on the head rushed back on Mr. Sclater: could it be the consequence of that? |
2370 | A loving hand laid on his feet or legs would have found them like ice; but where was the matter so long as he never thought of them? |
2370 | A morning call? |
2370 | A pastoral visitation? |
2370 | After thus hunting her as a cat might a mouse, or a lion a man, what could she look for but that he would pounce upon her, and tear her to pieces? |
2370 | Am I to have no pity because I am neither hungry nor cold?" |
2370 | Among women, was it not always to peasant women that heavenly messages came? |
2370 | And did the fellow challenge him to a discussion? |
2370 | And what great occasion was there? |
2370 | And what had they whipped the creature for? |
2370 | And what is this person doing here?" |
2370 | Ay!--An''syne ye set tee, an''did the wark yersel to save yer auntie Jean''s auld banes?" |
2370 | But aye& c. Sing ye yoong sorrow to beguile Or to gie auld fear the flegs? |
2370 | But he never made the smallest acknowledgment to Gibbie for the saving of the said Snowball: what could an idiot understand about gratitude? |
2370 | But how to get in? |
2370 | But if it lay before us, and we could watch its current approaching from a long distance, what could we do with it before it had reached the now? |
2370 | But may be my jography buik''s some auld- fashioned.--Didna ye un''erstan''me, mem?" |
2370 | But now, when or where was she ever to see them more? |
2370 | But syne what wad hae come o''the gran''delicht o''seein''auld age rin hirplin awa''frae the face o''the Auncient o''Days?" |
2370 | But the excess of his joy had not yet turned to light, was not yet passing from him in physical flame: whence then the glow that illumined the court? |
2370 | But was the beast- boy ubiquitous? |
2370 | But wha''ll tak the trible needfu''to the learnin''o''a puir dummie?" |
2370 | But whan ye''re lyin''hearkenin''to the burn, did ye never imagine yersel''rinnin''doon wi''''t-- doon to the sea?" |
2370 | But what could he mean, she said, by wasting the good corn to put devilry into the horses? |
2370 | But what was he to do? |
2370 | But where ever could he have been brought up? |
2370 | But would they hurt the little girl? |
2370 | Can they take to themselves wings and fly? |
2370 | Could it be allusion to the way he spent his time when out with the cattle that Mistress Jean intended? |
2370 | Could it be that she was dreaming? |
2370 | Could it really be the beast- boy? |
2370 | Could she be, and look so lost? |
2370 | Did God like to look at the storm he made? |
2370 | Did he not sleep in the same chamber with them? |
2370 | Did he think of his own? |
2370 | Did her old eyes deceive her? |
2370 | Did she not forsake him too when she forsook his Donal? |
2370 | Did the laird know that the enemy was within his gates? |
2370 | Did you?" |
2370 | Dinna ye ken''At ye hing ower men Wha haena a sang or a penny to spen''? |
2370 | Do you know the writing?" |
2370 | Does the questioning thought arise to any reader: How could a man be conscious of bliss without the thought of himself? |
2370 | Donal remaining silent, Ginevra presently returned him his own question:"How did you like the sermon, Donal?" |
2370 | Donal rose, replying,"Think ye sae, sir? |
2370 | Even the brightening of the harness- brass, in which Gibbie sometimes indulged, was an offence; for did it not imply a reproach? |
2370 | For I ken he''s luikin''an''waitin'', Luikin''aye doon as I clim'': Wad I hae him see me sit greitin'', I''stead o''gaein''to him? |
2370 | For had not Gibbie himself had a father, to whose bosom he went home every night? |
2370 | Gibbie shut the door, placed a chair for Mistress Croale by the fire, seated himself, took out his tablets, wrote"Will you be my housekeeper? |
2370 | Gien he be the life o''me, what for sud I trible mysel''aboot that life?" |
2370 | Gien ye be droont oot o''the hills, what''s to come o''hiz i''the how? |
2370 | Guid day to ye, Janet.--What neist, I won''er?" |
2370 | Had he a glimmer of the return of the buried mother? |
2370 | Had he mistaken his bearings? |
2370 | Had it, some time before this, become at length easier for a rich boy to enter into the kingdom of heaven? |
2370 | Had not Donal said twenty times he would not mind being a herd all his life, if only he could go to college first? |
2370 | He could swim to the tree well enough, and, he thought, back again, but how was that to be made of service to Angus? |
2370 | Her questioning cogitation was to this effect:"What need has a man to know anything but what the New Testament teaches him? |
2370 | His mother did not believe such things, but she believed nothing but her New Testament!--and what if there should be something in them? |
2370 | His relatives ought to do something: they failing, of whom could further requisition be made? |
2370 | Hoo wad an auld wife like me luik in sic a place-- an''in sic duds as this? |
2370 | How could a man be a burn, or a wind, or the sun? |
2370 | How did the horses manage to get such dry stuff down their throats? |
2370 | How was Sir George to glorify the God whom he could honestly thank for nothing but whisky, the sole of his gifts that he prized? |
2370 | Hurriedly Gibbie asked on his fingers:"Was Donal not good to you?" |
2370 | I can not have a woman like that sitting at my table.--Do you know what sort of a person she is?" |
2370 | I could n''t let him think I might have married him-- in any case: could I now, Gibbie?" |
2370 | I suppose he told you he was your injured, neglected, ill- used cousin? |
2370 | If Jesus did, would he have left it all and gone to sleep, when the wind and waves were howling, and flinging the boat about like a toy between them? |
2370 | If he should never come back, what would become of her? |
2370 | If it was like this already, how would it be in the time to come? |
2370 | If mere battle with storm was a delight to the boy, what would not a mortal tussle with the elements for the love of men be? |
2370 | If the Lord were to appear in person amongst us, how much would the sight of him do for the sinners of our day? |
2370 | If you know him, why do I not know him? |
2370 | In other words, are the utensils in your kitchen endowed with powers of locomotion? |
2370 | Is not your father your best friend?" |
2370 | Is that to say''at you an''me''s to be no more to ane anither nor ither fowk? |
2370 | Is there naebody there to gie ye a daud? |
2370 | It may be well for drunkards that they are social outcasts, but is there no intercession to be made for them-- no excuse to be pleaded? |
2370 | It must mean that she was to ask God to help her: was that the same as saying prayers? |
2370 | It''s not a dangerous place, is it?" |
2370 | Janet was arrested in her turn: could the fierce, repellent, whisky- craving woman be the mother of her gracious Gibbie? |
2370 | Kenna ye''at the mair shame the mair grace? |
2370 | Match such as hers with thy love, maiden of twenty, and where wilt thou find the man I say not worthy, but fit to mate with thee? |
2370 | Matthew Kimble of the next parish to your own?" |
2370 | Meantime was there nothing he could do for the splendid creature? |
2370 | Night on the hillsides and in the fields he knew well; but this was like a place of tombs-- what else, when all were dead for the night? |
2370 | O God, what garred ye mak things''at wad mak whusky, whan ye kenned it wad mak sic a beast o''me?" |
2370 | Or did he presume on the familiarity of their boyhood, and wish to sport his acquaintance with the popular preacher? |
2370 | Or to use a figure more to the point, are they provided with members necessary to the washing of their own-- persons, shall I say? |
2370 | Returning presently, he spelled with fingers and signed with hands to Ginevra that it was a glorious night: would she not come for a walk? |
2370 | Sae first ye turnt me oot o''my ain hoose, an''noo ye turn me oot o''yours; an''what''s left ye to turn me oot o''but the hoose o''the Lord? |
2370 | Sclater?" |
2370 | Shall I not hear them again?" |
2370 | She concluded she must be mistaken, for who could have touched it? |
2370 | She could not find her way down the mountain; and if she could, where was she to go, with all Daurside under water? |
2370 | She had a twistit brainch o''blew berries aboot her helmet, an''they ca''d her Juniper: wasna that queer, noo? |
2370 | She laughed also-- who could have helped it? |
2370 | She looked up therefore from her book, and said--"Can ye read, laddie?" |
2370 | She rose, cast an angry look at the dumb prophet, a look which seemed to say"How dare you suggest such a thing?" |
2370 | She was eating porridge and milk: with spoon arrested in mid- passage, she stopped suddenly, and said:--"Papa, what''s a broonie?" |
2370 | She was straining hard on the bit of propriety; but she knew them all so well? |
2370 | She would soon have eaten up all the food in the cottage, and the storm might go on for ever, who could tell? |
2370 | Tell me about it, Donal.--Do you know what it means, Nicie?" |
2370 | That cudna be as things war inten''it, ye ken; sae what was to be said but set them richt?" |
2370 | That was no matter: what else were teeth made strong and sharp for? |
2370 | The Lord himself seems not to have been very hopeful about us, for he said, When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? |
2370 | The last one he ever read to her in that meadow was this: What gars ye sing, said the herd laddie, What gars ye sing sae lood? |
2370 | Then Fergus said to the laird:"Did you see that young man, sir? |
2370 | Then suddenly starting to his feet, he cried,"What do you mean, you rascal, by daring to insult me in my own house? |
2370 | Then, if he was only the God of the good people, what was to become of the rest when they were lost on mountains? |
2370 | They are the sort he was accustomed to when he received his first impressions, and how could it be otherwise? |
2370 | Things were with him as they had always been, and whence was he to take a fresh start, and question what had been from the beginning? |
2370 | Think ye sae, sir? |
2370 | To Robert, Janet was one who knew-- one who was far ben??? |
2370 | To Robert, Janet was one who knew-- one who was far ben??? |
2370 | To Robert, Janet was one who knew-- one who was far ben??? |
2370 | Torrie?" |
2370 | Wad that be to wuss him weel? |
2370 | Wad ye even( compare) my hoose to Jock Thamson''s or Jeemie Deuk''s, baith i''this perris?" |
2370 | Wad ye hae a fellow- cratur live to a''eternity ohn been ashamed o''sic a thing''s that? |
2370 | Was a child with a Sir to his name, anything more in the eyes of God than a child without a name at all? |
2370 | Was affront lying in wait for her again? |
2370 | Was he going to drown her in that hole? |
2370 | Was he gone where Gibbie''s father was gone? |
2370 | Was it dissatisfaction then with herself that his look had waked? |
2370 | Was it fear? |
2370 | Was it impossible to gather such under the wings of any night- brooding hen? |
2370 | Was it only that he might be the first in the race to right him?--and if so, then again, why? |
2370 | Was it the good men that stopped breathing and grew cold? |
2370 | Was the boy paralyzed? |
2370 | Was this the answer God sent to the prayer she had offered in her sore need-- the beast- boy? |
2370 | Was this then the voice into which the silence had been all the time deepening?--had the Presence thus taken form and declared itself? |
2370 | Was''t yer soup or yer grace I soucht till, sir? |
2370 | Were they not for the like of Donal? |
2370 | Wha wad hae thoucht it?" |
2370 | Wha was to tell wha was or wha wasna my brither? |
2370 | Wharfor did ye doobt? |
2370 | What ca''they ye, man?" |
2370 | What could be the matter with the curious creature? |
2370 | What could their landlady think?--the very first night?--and a lodger whom he had recommended? |
2370 | What did his father''s herd- boy mean by talking such English to the ladies, and such vulgar Scotch to him? |
2370 | What did it matter who or what her brownie was? |
2370 | What do you mean by such impertinence?" |
2370 | What garred ye rin upo''the deevil''s verra horns that gait?" |
2370 | What harm had he done? |
2370 | What if he did not intend going to church the next day? |
2370 | What if the angel, to try her, had taken to himself the form of the beast- boy? |
2370 | What if this cold in her bones were the cold of coming death? |
2370 | What makes you think that?" |
2370 | What right had his father''s herd- boy to question him as to his conduct? |
2370 | What said ye till''i m?" |
2370 | What should he do next? |
2370 | What should we poor humans do without our God''s nights and mornings? |
2370 | What wad be the use o''forgiein''ye, or hoo cud it win at ye, or what wad ye care for''t, or mak o''t, cairryin''a hell o''hate i''yer verra hert? |
2370 | What wad ye hae here? |
2370 | What was that cry from far away? |
2370 | What was the cratur punished for? |
2370 | What would Mrs. Sclater say to it? |
2370 | What would her late aunt think to see her now? |
2370 | What''s broucht ye here at sic a time?" |
2370 | What, then, I repeat and leave it, did all this excitement on the part of one of the iron pillars of the church indicate? |
2370 | Whaur come ye frae?" |
2370 | Whaur''s yer boatle, sir?" |
2370 | Whaur''s yer consistency, lass?" |
2370 | Where could he get something to eat? |
2370 | Where could horses be with such a depth of water about the place? |
2370 | Where was the great matter? |
2370 | Wherein then is the commonplace man to be blamed, for as he is, so must he think? |
2370 | Who was there to tell? |
2370 | Why do you not come and help me too? |
2370 | Why had she been marked out for such misfortunes? |
2370 | Why indeed? |
2370 | Why should it be painful to me-- except indeed that it breaks my heart as often as I see you betray your invincible fondness for low company?" |
2370 | Why should not Mr. Sclater manage somehow that Donal should go at once? |
2370 | Winna ye haud? |
2370 | With what? |
2370 | Would Mistress Murkison be saved if she died that night? |
2370 | Would all the good people be laid into holes and leave Gibbie quite alone? |
2370 | Would any title-- even that of Earl or Duke, be recognized in the kingdom of heaven? |
2370 | Would the foundations of the house outstand it? |
2370 | Ye wad think she had licht eneuch to haud the cloods aff o''her, wad ye no, mem? |
2370 | Ye wadna be fleyt to come an''see what the meen maks o''''t, wad ye, mem?" |
2370 | Ye wadna think waur o''the angel Gabriel''at he hedna jist read Homer clean throu'', wad ye?" |
2370 | Ye''ll come up the stair an''see?" |
2370 | accepting the evil, slaying it, and returning none? |
2370 | and what use was money to a boy who did not set his life at a pin''s fee? |
2370 | and-- was she still so dazzled by the red sun as to see red where red was none?--or were those indeed blood- red streaks on his white skin? |
2370 | are those lovely words gone-- altogether-- for ever? |
2370 | but, Donal, that would n''t be enough!--Would it, Nicie?" |
2370 | cried Mistress Croale, drawing herself up suddenly, with a snort of anger:"whan turnt I beggar? |
2370 | exclaimed the laird,"you do not mean to tell me you have ever spoken to a young man like that?" |
2370 | he said, as the two stood for a moment regarding him, a little doubtfully, but with smiles of welcome,"what is the meaning of this? |
2370 | he said,"we canna follow her a''nicht; an''gien we did, what better wad she be i''the mornin''? |
2370 | how could you?" |
2370 | or what was it? |
2370 | please the Lord, I wad fain gang wi''him.--An''what better wad Robert be to be laird? |
2370 | said Janet, looking motherly at him:"--Sir Gibbie Galbraith?" |
2370 | said Mr. Galbraith;"excuse me, but would you oblige me by giving your arm to my daughter? |
2370 | said his master,"hoo cud she win sae far ohn gane to the boddom?" |
2370 | she cried, jumping to her feet,"hae ye tint yer wuts? |
2370 | she said to herself,"wha kens whan he may be at the door? |
2370 | she said, in the pitying voice of a mother,"hoo cam ye here sic a hicht? |
2370 | she said,"was that hoo the fowk wad hae''t o''me?" |
2370 | that''s where the nickname comes from.--And you think she keeps up a communication with the clown through him?" |
2370 | the little hussey dared to say I struck her?" |
2370 | was he looking in a wrong direction? |
2370 | was it a spectre? |
2370 | what are ye efter? |
2370 | what could have become of her little mistress? |
2370 | what think ye o''me noo?" |
2370 | whaur do ye bide, auld Death?" |
2370 | whaur do ye bide, auld Death?" |
2370 | whaur do ye bide, auld Death?" |
2370 | where was the bridge? |
2370 | where was the wall, and the gravelled road to the house? |
2370 | ye''ll be the laird, wull ye, than? |
