31599 | Anything wrong, Joey? |
31599 | Anything wrong, kid? |
31599 | I''m not saying that Joey really moved those damn stars, Doc, but if he did he could have moved the light along with them, could n''t he? |
31599 | Moving_ stars_? |
31599 | Roy,he said, without taking his eyes off his toes,"did you know that Doc is an awfully wise man?" |
31599 | Then you''re really moving those stars up there? |
31599 | What''re you looking for up there, Joey? |
31599 | What''re you making up there? |
31599 | Who''s Charlie? |
31599 | Why could n''t You give the kid a break? |
31599 | Why not? |
31599 | You mean he''s been waiting a_ year_? |
31599 | You, up there-- what''s another lousy one- eyed mutt to You? |
31599 | ''s from drinking_ beer_?" |
31599 | Do you really believe Joey is moving those stars?" |
31599 | How can you talk to a kid like that? |
31599 | I said I''d always thought so, but why? |
31599 | So how do they know that whoever put them there wo n''t move them again? |
31599 | Where''s the opener?" |
31599 | Where?" |
31599 | Why else do you suppose I''d launder a shirt?" |
21217 | And you mean, I trust, to ask God''s Spirit to help you? |
21217 | But how could I ever meet Jacob in heaven? |
21217 | What have I done,asked old Meyers,"to deserve being turned adrift? |
21217 | What is the whole truth about this matter? |
21217 | What shall I do, Leonard, to show my sorrow? |
21217 | Who ever said I did Jacob Dobbin any harm? |
21217 | Why, what happened? |
21217 | Will you go and live in a new house, if I get papa to build one for you? |
21217 | And is it not often thus? |
21217 | And what fruit of pleasure had James Courtenay from his plunder of Jacob Dobbin''s rose? |
21217 | Page 16,"worst? |
21217 | The apostle says,"What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed?" |
21217 | Where was that rose? |
21217 | cried the young squire;"and pray, who''s your father? |
21217 | ejaculated the squire in astonishment;"I do n''t believe my son ever lifted a hand to him,--you mean the crippled boy that died some time ago?" |
21217 | murmured the young squire from between his hands, in which he had buried his face;"when I saw him, must not I feel I murdered him? |
21217 | what is it to an assault upon the person?" |
35966 | About the dog? |
35966 | Has the knife touched him-- anywhere? |
35966 | In which direction is it? 35966 Papa,"said Adah, limping down the stairs,"where is Loveliness? |
35966 | Tired out, dear? |
35966 | What''ll the little_ gell_ dew? |
35966 | What''s de matter of de kid yonder, in de winder? |
35966 | Where is the janitor? 35966 Where''s me dog?" |
35966 | Will Loveliness be out and get wet? 35966 _ Gone?_""He''s dum goneter de college. |
35966 | Anything that I can do to help you, Professor Premice, in this-- real calamity-- How does the child bear it?" |
35966 | Did they cut you meat and warm you soup for you, and comfort you? |
35966 | Did they ever let you out to shi- shiver in''e wet and cold? |
35966 | Did you have a little baxet with blankets while you were away? |
35966 | Does_ she_ know?" |
35966 | Is there anybody to rub him dry and cuddle my Loveliness?" |
35966 | Or did she look so much more translucent, more pathetic, than on another day? |
35966 | Papa, Papa, will they be_ kind_ to Loveliness?" |
35966 | Papa, ca n''t you know enough to comfort you little girl? |
35966 | Papa, who will give him his little baxet, and cover him up warm? |
35966 | Papa? |
35966 | Really, I can not proceed in such a disturbance-- What_ is_ that noise?" |
35966 | Tell me about''e barber who shaved you hair so close,--was he_ kind_ to you?" |
35966 | The faculty and the neighbors did not ask,"How is the child?" |
35966 | The little girl was so weak that morning-- what might not have happened? |
35966 | Then she would ask the question that haunted her most:--"Mamma, who will put Loveliness into a little baxet to sleep, and cover him up? |
35966 | WHERE is my Loveliness?" |
35966 | Whatever''ll_ she_ do? |
35966 | Where''s my_ Love_-li- ness?" |
35966 | Which door did you say?" |
35966 | Who indeed? |
35966 | Who''ll tell_ her_?" |
35966 | Will he have warm milk for his supper? |
35966 | Will he shiver like''e black dog I saw to- day? |
35966 | You see-- Gentlemen? |
35966 | but always,"Have you heard from the dog?" |
35966 | who will be_ kind_ to Loveliness?" |
33667 | ''Luncheon?'' 33667 Ai n''t you got no better sense''n to be chawing my frock, dog?" |
33667 | And did he sure''nough come back-- what you call rise again? |
33667 | And told your mother that you set him free? |
33667 | And where is He now? |
33667 | And your father? |
33667 | Are you a princess? |
33667 | Can He send back anybody he wants? |
33667 | Can I have a little piece of it? |
33667 | Do you think mamma would mind it? |
33667 | Do you think my mother will know me when I get to Heaven? 33667 Has n''t it?" |
33667 | Have you got anything to feed him on? |
33667 | Have you? 33667 How do you do?" |
33667 | If I had all the money in the world, do you know what I would do with it? |
33667 | In the whole world? |
33667 | Is he? 33667 Is that a fairy tale?" |
33667 | Mildred, what is Easter? |
33667 | Molly what? |
33667 | Molly,said Mildred,"I wonder if that is not your mocking- bird?" |
33667 | Mother? |
33667 | Oh, Mildred, is it--? |
33667 | Oh, will you? 33667 Well, what is it?" |
33667 | What is that? |
33667 | What is your name? |
33667 | What you squeezin''dat dog so for? 33667 What''s that dirty dog doin''in this room?" |
33667 | What? 33667 Where did ye git him?" |
33667 | Where is she? |
33667 | Where shall I put it? |
33667 | Who is Molly? |
33667 | Whom do you mean? |
33667 | Why, is he your dog, too? 33667 Why, it''s the day Christ rose from the dead-- Don''t you know?" |
33667 | Would you let me kiss you? |
33667 | Would you mind something? |
33667 | Would you? |
33667 | You did? 33667 Your nurse?" |
33667 | ''Ave I to be slavin''meself to death for the two of you? |
33667 | Are you going to wait till luncheon?" |
33667 | Could Molly be sending the mocking- bird to heaven with a message to her mother? |
33667 | Could they have set the bird free on purpose? |
33667 | Don''you heah him crying?" |
33667 | For my own? |
33667 | Johnson?" |
33667 | My very own?" |
33667 | O''Meath?" |
33667 | Then she said:--"What do you know about it?" |
33667 | This rose?" |
33667 | What''s that?" |
33667 | What?" |
33667 | Where did you get it? |

46159 | Aha,said Pwit- Pwit, into the ear of old Mahmoud,"did n''t I tell you I could manage the roar of the Jungle?" |
46159 | And the corroboration of all the other Menial People? |
46159 | Any brothers or sisters? |
46159 | Are you for the second time a father? |
46159 | Born so? |
46159 | But how could they live so long without eating? |
46159 | Canst thou remember the time long before we came to this pleasant place, when, for many weary months, we were separated, my beloved? |
46159 | Did he get away? |
46159 | Did n''t Grandfather get the hook after all? |
46159 | Do n''t seem to have much appetite for red feathers to- day, do they? |
46159 | Do try half a dozen raw, dearie, wo n''t you? |
46159 | Do you find it hard going without? |
46159 | Do you know what Dozel says about you? |
46159 | Do you mean to say,said Pwit- Pwit, in surprise,"that Fatimah found the baby in the water to begin with?" |
46159 | Do you suppose the sparrow has already told her of Mahmoud''s command? |
46159 | Eh? |
46159 | Good morning, Mr. Kelly,he said politely,"are you feeling quite well?" |
46159 | Have you lost your appetite? |
46159 | He''ll never swallow any more fish- hooks, will he, John? |
46159 | How old are you? |
46159 | If the sparrow were only here,said the Princess,"there would be a lot of gossip about it; would n''t there, Toots?" |
46159 | Is it indeed true? |
46159 | Look, Friend of my Youth,he said, after a moment,"is it the chirp of our merry little gossip, the sparrow, that I hear?" |
46159 | My little daughter calls you''Toots''; what''s your real name? |
46159 | Oh, would that be possible, sir? |
46159 | Pride of my Heart,said Mahmoud, turning eagerly to his faithful mate and stroking her cheek,"do you hear? |
46159 | Reel him in, why do n''t you? |
46159 | So that''s your opinion of''em, too, is it, Dozel, my dear? 46159 That so?" |
46159 | That''s so,answered John, good naturedly;"maybe you''d rather put him in the spring, and keep him for a pet?" |
46159 | The lions,said Mahmoud, eagerly,"are the lions ready?" |
46159 | Well, what do you think of that? |
46159 | What are they talking about? |
46159 | What are you up to now? |
46159 | What does he say? |
46159 | What on earth are you laughing at? |
46159 | What''s the matter, old chap? |
46159 | Where are Fatimah and the new baby? |
46159 | Where will the little pickerels get another father? |
46159 | Why are you so sad this morning? |
46159 | Why, certainly,answered Caliph,"where would you expect to find a new baby hippopotamus?" |
46159 | Would it hurt? |
46159 | Would you believe it? |
46159 | Again the lion cubs roared at Pwit- Pwit as he was passing, demanding the news:"Where did the hippopotamus baby come from? |
46159 | And of a truth this is meet, for is not the sparrow official news- gatherer and gossip for all the Menial People? |
46159 | And thy lameness this morning, my beloved, hath it disappeared?" |
46159 | And where wert thou, my Lord, during that dreary time of our separation?" |
46159 | At length he replaced the irons, looked the boy sharply in the face, and asked:"How would you like to wear it like the other one, for a change?" |
46159 | But how about bait? |
46159 | By the way, Pwit- Pwit, little one, how are Cleopatra and her monkey baby this morning?" |
46159 | Can it be that my ears are growing dull, also, that I failed to hear the clank of the iron on his leg?" |
46159 | Did n''t you hear her roaring at the little upstart to behave himself? |
46159 | Did somebody leave the door open?" |
46159 | Did you not observe them flying in all directions?" |
46159 | Did you notice what a horrid big mouth she has?" |
46159 | Didst thou say, my Lord, that the Master People imprison those scorching red tongues in iron boxes?" |
46159 | Do n''t you know it rained last night? |
46159 | Do you hear? |
46159 | Do you insist on bringing that young person into this respectable family?" |
46159 | Do you recall, O Light of my Life, how the little Limping Boy stood at our door and talked softly to himself? |
46159 | Grandfather Pickerel cast his eye over his audience, and asked:"Where is my son?" |
46159 | Have you named the baby yet, Fatimah?" |
46159 | How is it, Pwit- Pwit, that so much fuss is made over a single baby? |
46159 | Hum, ha, where did you get that story about the elephant skin- grafting you''ve just been telling?" |
46159 | Is n''t it disgraceful?" |
46159 | Is n''t it pitiful? |
46159 | Is there any one among all the Menial People whose word you will accept as the eternal truth?" |
46159 | Is this the truth? |
46159 | Look, Pwit- Pwit, little one, do you see that prong, broken short off?" |
46159 | Now will you be good?" |
46159 | Oh, what shall I do? |
46159 | Presently she said, with surprise and some reproach in her tones:"Why hast thou concealed thy wounds from me, thy faithful mate, my Lord? |
46159 | Pwit- Pwit flew up and alighted on one of the prongs and chirped merrily into the deer''s ear:"Glorious fun, this snow, is n''t it, old fellow?" |
46159 | She cuffed them right and left, saying:[ Illustration]"How often have I told you not to disturb your grandfather when he is taking his nap? |
46159 | Surely this is since we came from the Jungle? |
46159 | The sparrow hopped up on the rim of Mahmoud''s ear, and said cheerily:"Why do n''t you go home for a visit?" |
46159 | The sparrow hopped upon that of Mahmoud, and said:"Where are your eyes, old friend? |
46159 | These blue laws are beastly, are n''t they?" |
46159 | Toots reflected for several moments, and then inquired:"What becomes of the hook, John?" |
46159 | Verily, is not he the only one of our world that is not locked fast in a yard or in an iron cage by the Master People? |
46159 | Were the other eggs eaten by the crocodiles?" |
46159 | What do you say to that?" |
46159 | What does your father do?" |
46159 | What does your mother do?" |
46159 | What has befallen in the Lion House that gives cause for rejoicing?" |
46159 | What shall I do?" |
46159 | What''s the matter with you?" |
46159 | When the other voices had subsided, up spoke the aged striped hyena in his evil- tempered voice, demanding:"Wherefore rejoice? |
46159 | With these words the sparrow flew at the eyes of the oldest bear, pecking away with all his might, and chirping:"Come, now, will you wake up? |
46159 | You do n''t happen to have a cigar about you, I suppose?" |
46159 | [ Illustration]"Well,"chirped Pwit- Pwit,"did you hear the verdict of old Caliph?" |
46159 | chirped the sparrow, exultantly;"what about the tail?" |
46159 | he said finally;"the beautiful young Indian doe at whom you have been making eyes through the wires of your cage ever since she arrived?" |
46159 | only one? |
46159 | said Pwit- Pwit, astounded and quite off his guard,"you do n''t mean to say you smoke?" |
45975 | Am I? |
45975 | Am I? |
45975 | Am I? |
45975 | And about my mother? |
45975 | And are you very dull, my boy? |
45975 | And you want nothing? |
45975 | Are you very dull here? |
45975 | Ca n''t the world be made a little more level? 45975 Did I not tell you some people called me by that name? |
45975 | Do n''t you think it''s-- just a little old and shabby, for a prince? |
45975 | Do you? 45975 Does he?" |
45975 | Forsake you? 45975 He ought to be far more forward than he is now, ought he not, brother? |
45975 | How old is his Royal Highness? |
45975 | How shall I be able to rule all this great people? 45975 How?" |
45975 | I wonder-- is there a remedy now, and could I find it? |
45975 | Is n''t it rude?--won''t they think us-- intruding? |
45975 | Is that the King? |
45975 | Might he come and play with me? 45975 My pretty bird, what am I to do with you? |
45975 | Nurse-- dear nurse,said he,"I do n''t mean to vex you, but tell me-- what is a king? |
45975 | Outgrow-- what? |
45975 | Shall I turn back? |
45975 | Such a heap of untidy books; and what''s this rubbish? |
45975 | Suppose I say''Abracadabra?'' |
45975 | Tell me what, dear godmother? |
45975 | What does it matter though? |
45975 | What in the world am I to do? |
45975 | What is it? |
45975 | What is kissing? |
45975 | What is the matter with him? |
45975 | What shall we do now? |
45975 | What sort of thing? |
45975 | What will be fun? |
45975 | Where is the King? |
45975 | Who spoke to me? 45975 Why do you call me poor?" |
45975 | Will you tell her to come and see me then? |
45975 | Yes, I am a prince, and my name is Dolor; will you tell me yours, madam? |
45975 | You have never used it; you dislike it? |
45975 | You will not leave me now that I am a king? 45975 You''ve had enough, I suppose, of seeing the world?" |
45975 | And above it, high in air, how could he expect to find a well, or to get even a drop of water? |
45975 | And did he enjoy them? |
45975 | And even if he slung or flung himself down, and by miraculous chance came alive to the foot of the tower how could he run away? |
45975 | And it contained-- what do you think? |
45975 | And this was being dead? |
45975 | And what did he see? |
45975 | And what of the little lame prince, whom everybody seemed so easily to have forgotten? |
45975 | And what of the travelling- cloak? |
45975 | And what was the fact? |
45975 | As he spoke, there sounded behind him a slight tap- tap- tap, as of a stick or a cane, and twisting himself round, he saw-- what do you think he saw? |
45975 | But even if you did not know it, how dared you presume to hint that her most gracious Majesty is called Dolorez?" |
45975 | But he crouched down, silent and quiet; what was the use of making a fuss? |
45975 | But why do you talk of bearing it? |
45975 | But, suppose you were to see it from the upper air; where, with your eyes and ears open, you could take in everything at once? |
45975 | Can not you? |
45975 | Could n''t you show me just one little boy?" |
45975 | Did Prince Dolor become a great king? |
45975 | Did his reign last long-- long and happy?--and what were the principal events of it, as chronicled in the history of Nomansland? |
45975 | Did nobody remember? |
45975 | Did you know that all clay was mud made by the washing away of rocks? |
45975 | Do you? |
45975 | For what do you think the clever godmother did? |
45975 | Godmother, dear, have you quite forsaken me?" |
45975 | Had he got all the things he wanted, which another ought to have had? |
45975 | He ca n''t see you, but perhaps you might like to go and take a look at him, in a way I often do? |
45975 | He had nearly come to the end of his provisions-- and what was to happen next? |
45975 | His nurse and his godmother-- what would they say to one another? |
45975 | How did anybody know?--I mean, what business has anybody--?" |
45975 | How would you feel about it? |
45975 | I wonder"--the boy was always wondering--"Nurse"--and one day he startled her with a sudden question--"tell me-- shall I ever be a king?" |
45975 | If I take you into my room and shut you up there, you, a wild skylark of the air, what will become of you? |
45975 | If legs are no good, why can not one have wings? |
45975 | In case of my death, you will take care of my poor little boy?" |
45975 | In spite of his disappointment he examined it curiously._"]"And what use will it be to me?" |
45975 | Is there not something wrong about him?" |
45975 | May I ask who you are? |
45975 | Perhaps my mother?" |
45975 | Promise never to forsake me?" |
45975 | Shall I show you the royal palace?" |
45975 | She was not a stupid woman, and Prince Dolor was by no means a stupid boy; so they got on very well, and his continual entreaty"What can I do? |
45975 | So, even kings died? |
45975 | Something might happen-- who could tell? |
45975 | The idea came to her-- what harm would it be, even if he did know his own history? |
45975 | True, it kept out of the way; and though his nurse sometimes dimly heard it, and said,"What is that horrid noise outside?" |
45975 | Was he, though little more than a boy,"the father of his people,"as all kings ought to be? |
45975 | Was that it? |
45975 | Was there one-- was it his little lark, whom he had almost forgotten? |
45975 | Well for you that you have a godmother called----""What?" |
45975 | What has happened, I wonder? |
45975 | What he did there, or where he is now, who can tell? |
45975 | What sort of cloak was it, and what good did it do the Prince? |
45975 | What such want could possibly happen to the heir of the powerful monarch of Nomansland? |
45975 | What was Prince Dolor''s? |
45975 | What was he like, this great, bad, clever man? |
45975 | What would it look like? |
45975 | What, I wonder, would be most people''s idea of a king? |
45975 | Where is your travelling- cloak?" |
45975 | Who could oppose the good King, who was not a young king now? |
45975 | Why was this given me, I wonder? |
45975 | Will her coming drive you away, godmother?" |
45975 | Will you come and play with me?" |
45975 | Yes-- perhaps-- If you please, godmother, could you bring me just one more thing?" |
45975 | You will be so miserable, and suppose my nurse should find you-- she who ca n''t bear the sound of singing? |
45975 | [ Illustration:_"How old is his Royal Highness?" |
45975 | _ Why_ not?" |
45975 | a lark, for instance?" |
45975 | and what in the world am I to do with it? |
45975 | shall I ever be one?" |
45975 | what can you be thinking of? |
45975 | what can you find me to do?" |
45975 | what has become of your Royal Highness all this time? |
20052 | An accident? 20052 And did you enjoy the_ pater''s_ smashing the Doulton bowl?" |
20052 | And what do you suppose she came for? |
20052 | And what do_ you_ propose to do in that case? |
20052 | And why did my son put my most cherished work into a stranger''s hands without my knowledge? |
20052 | And will you promise not to tell anybody that I''m trying-- not a single creature-- not even Felix or Jack? |
20052 | And you wo n''t work so hard again, will you? |
20052 | Are you coming? |
20052 | Are you hurt, old fellow? 20052 Are you two coming, or are you not?" |
20052 | Are you_ sure_ about this? |
20052 | Art filled with fears for Thursday''s function? |
20052 | But why this absurd disguise, if all this is true? |
20052 | Ca n''t you behave yourselves, you young rascals? |
20052 | Ca n''t you find anything better to do, Jack, than encouraging Betty to be rude and unladylike? |
20052 | Coming, boys? |
20052 | Could such an accident--I''d told him that Fee had struck his back against a chair and then fallen--"do anybody--_harm_?" |
20052 | Did you think I was wound up to- night? |
20052 | Do n''t you know me, old fellow? |
20052 | Do n''t you want to get up? |
20052 | Do you hear me? |
20052 | Does n''t know you, old man, does she? |
20052 | Does that satisfy you? 20052 Fee, dear,"she said in an undertone,"do n''t you feel well? |
20052 | Fee,I whispered,--I did n''t want Nora to hear,--"can I do anything to help? |
20052 | Felix and I are here, papa; what can we do for you? |
20052 | Had n''t I better help you up, Fee? |
20052 | How is your head? |
20052 | I am, eh? |
20052 | I suppose you think, as Nora does, that we''re a pretty mean set? |
20052 | I wonder if Chad will be round? |
20052 | I wonder what''s up? |
20052 | I''ll see to that; do you suppose I''m_ utterly_ useless? 20052 I''m afraid Mädel will be off in a few minutes, too, if we do n''t quiet Kathie; had n''t I better call Nannie?" |
20052 | I-- I-- mean-- were you going to burn-- your book? |
20052 | If it is nervousness, why do n''t you do something for it?--go to a physician and get cured? |
20052 | In fact, I think it is good; only, instead of three of you going at papa about it, why not let one speak for all? 20052 Is it the same trouble?" |
20052 | Is that what you call it, Philip? |
20052 | Jack,called papa,"are there anymore of them to come? |
20052 | Jack,he said,"will you sit with Felix for a while? |
20052 | Jack,she said softly,"say our verse for the day, will you?" |
20052 | May I put this at your back? |
20052 | May I walk with you part way home? |
20052 | Meet whom? 20052 No,_ really_? |
20052 | No? |
20052 | Oh, Fee,I said nervously,"do you suppose he is ill,--that anything is going to happen to him? |
20052 | Oh, Jack, is everybody awfully mad? 20052 Oh, Phil,"she said, as soon as she saw him,"come right in here, wo n''t you? |
20052 | Oh, papa,I pleaded,"_ why_ are you doing this? |
20052 | Oh,_ wo n''t_ you go? |
20052 | Phil,_ Phil_, are n''t you coming to bed? 20052 See here, what''s the matter with Felix?" |
20052 | Shall I give your love? |
20052 | Shall I tell her first? |
20052 | Shall we go separately? |
20052 | So that''s what you''re up to, is it? |
20052 | Still here, Jack? 20052 Sure you feel all right, Master Felix?" |
20052 | Talking about conceit,--where do you put yourself? |
20052 | Tell me honestly, Jack,he said,"do you think that Phil cares as much for me as he used to,--I mean before that fellow Chad came?" |
20052 | Tell us, what_ did_ he do, Jack? |
20052 | Then where did the enjoyment come in? |
20052 | They feel just as badly as I do about you, but we thought''twas best for one to speak for the three; and I being the eldest,--you understand? |
20052 | Turn over,he said;"I want to talk to you,--d''you hear me?" |
20052 | Well, he''s years older than they, is n''t he? |
20052 | Well,he said breathlessly, taking a seat on the edge of the big table,"well, everything went off all right; quite a success, was n''t it? |
20052 | Well? 20052 Wha-- what''s wrong?" |
20052 | What are the stakes? |
20052 | What are_ you_ doing down here? |
20052 | What does the doctor say about him? |
20052 | What has Mr. Erveng to do with my book? |
20052 | What have you done? |
20052 | What''d he do? |
20052 | What''ll we do to- morrow evening? |
20052 | What''re you staring at, I''d like to know? |
20052 | What''s the matter? |
20052 | What''s the_ matter_ with you? |
20052 | What''ve I done? |
20052 | Who do you think has been here to- day? |
20052 | Who is taking my name in vain? |
20052 | Who''s going to take care of father? |
20052 | Who''s with you? |
20052 | Who, me? 20052 Why did n''t you let me know sooner? |
20052 | Why did n''t you say right out that you thought my dressing up and coming over to your house that way was very queer and unladylike? |
20052 | Why do n''t you run away to the house? |
20052 | Why do you want this-- why do you want me to live? |
20052 | Why, are n''t you going to school-- I mean college? |
20052 | Why, did n''t you hear him say last evening that he was going out of town for two or three days? |
20052 | Why, do n''t you remember I took you almost up to your room the other night? |
20052 | Why, you''re not ill, are you? |
20052 | Why, you''ve been doing that for a long time, have n''t you? |
20052 | Will Nora make us go to bed right away? |
20052 | Yes,Helen said, with a smile,"he is quite unlike any of the boys we know; who_ does_ he look like, Nora? |
20052 | Yes; but wo n''t it take an awfully long time at that rate to save enough to send Fee? |
20052 | You here? |
20052 | You look as sober as a judge; did n''t you enjoy yourself this evening? |
20052 | You mean to say you enjoyed sitting on that lounge and seeing Miss Devereaux snub that unfortunate little woman in the hideous bonnet? |
20052 | You think that''s very smart, do n''t you? |
20052 | _ Glad?_echoed Fee,"_ glad?_ why, I''m--"His voice failed, and turning hurriedly from us, he buried his face in the sofa cushions. |
20052 | _ Glad?_echoed Fee,"_ glad?_ why, I''m--"His voice failed, and turning hurriedly from us, he buried his face in the sofa cushions. |
20052 | _ Poetry!_--d''ye mind that, Mr. Wegge? 20052 _ What_ did he do?" |
20052 | _ Why?_ Because we love you! |
20052 | All right?" |
20052 | And I''ve come to ask you, for Phil, Felix, and myself, to let the hateful old book go, and just get well and strong again; will you?" |
20052 | And Phil kept saying,"Oh, Jack, he''ll soon be better,--don''t you think so? |
20052 | And even if it were so you could get to her, what do you suppose Nannie''d say when she found you had all_ run away from home_?" |
20052 | And he said,''A- a- h, what d''you take me for? |
20052 | And what excuse do you propose to offer Mr. Erveng when he makes his appearance here, as he will in a few minutes?" |
20052 | And while this thought was going through my brain, I heard myself say,"Did you tell your mother what I said to you?" |
20052 | And yet we were all_ very_,_ very_ glad and happy; queer, was n''t it? |
20052 | And yet-- a week more of nights to come home as he did last night, and the night before that--_ought_ I to let that go on? |
20052 | Are you coming or not, Felix?" |
20052 | Are you hurt? |
20052 | Are you ready?" |
20052 | Are you, Fee? |
20052 | Are you, like Nora, hankering after the unattainable in the shape of daily receptions?" |
20052 | Before I had time to ring the bell, Nora opened the front door; she looked very much excited, and asked breathlessly,"Did you meet them? |
20052 | Betty and Jack,_ are_ you going to bed, or not? |
20052 | But Felix only said,"How''s father? |
20052 | But he shook my hand again two or three times, saying impatiently,"Why do n''t you promise? |
20052 | But who_ could_ she be,--this double of mine? |
20052 | Ca n''t you find something for them to do, Nora? |
20052 | Can you carry him up? |
20052 | Come to notice, you do look rather white about the gills; do you feel ill, old fellow?" |
20052 | Coming over later in the evening to the corner of the room where Helen, Fee, Jack and I were, she said to Helen,"Is n''t he nice? |
20052 | D''you s''pose I knew''twas_ your_ brother?'' |
20052 | Dear mamma used to say that everybody had to have some responsibility or other; why not begin to take up yours now? |
20052 | Did you see the expression of his face as he looked around our shabby old schoolroom, and took in the simple birthday refreshments? |
20052 | Did you see the way he offered me his arm to the piano? |
20052 | Do you suppose they are crazy?" |
20052 | Dr. Archard was away, out of town, the sleepy boy who answered the bell told me; but Dr. Gordon, his assistant, was in,--would he do? |
20052 | Erveng?" |
20052 | Esmeralda Dorothea? |
20052 | HAVE YOU HURT YOURSELF?''"] |
20052 | Had I better just let things drift along as they are until we get in the country, and then speak to him? |
20052 | Have you seen them?" |
20052 | He asked, in a tone as if he meant it,"May n''t I bring you a cup of tea?" |
20052 | Hilliard did not come in with us, and when Mr. Erveng found that neither Phil nor I would answer Hannah''s"Please, what name shall I say?" |
20052 | I asked,"or shall I call"--I was going to say"Nannie or Phil,"but remembered they were helping papa, and ended up with"somebody?" |
20052 | I flashed out scornfully,"are you_ afraid_ of a thunder storm?" |
20052 | I hope you''re not hurt?" |
20052 | I sat on the steps listening, and what d''you think? |
20052 | I tell you what, Betty, I''m going to try to be a very,_ very_ good boy; now are n''t you glad for me?" |
20052 | I was afraid there''d be a fuss, so I sung out quickly,"Why do n''t_ you_ do it, Betty? |
20052 | I wondered if Hilliard had told his mother what I said; and what she thought of me? |
20052 | I''m going to save it up until I get a lot, and then,--what d''you think? |
20052 | I''ve always been a poor useless creature,--and now,_ now_, of what good am I in the world? |
20052 | I?" |
20052 | In a minute I was by his side, exclaiming,"Why, what''s the matter, Fee?" |
20052 | Indeed I_ was_ glad, and I told him so; and then what do you think he said? |
20052 | Is n''t it strange? |
20052 | Is n''t that a splendid scheme? |
20052 | It is n''t honourable to do those things,--don''t you know that? |
20052 | It seems as if I were an awful cry- baby those days; but how could a person help it, with such dreadful things happening? |
20052 | It was on the tip of my tongue to answer sharply,"I_ have_ fallen into the water; did you expect me to be dry?" |
20052 | Just poke that history under my head, will you, Jack? |
20052 | Kathie saw the likeness, too, for she pulled my elbow and whispered:"Oh, Jack, does n''t she look like Punch? |
20052 | Like a flash, Nannie was beside me on the floor, crying,"Oh,_ Fee!_ are you hurt?" |
20052 | May I count on your being kind to him?" |
20052 | Mr. Erveng said, appearing in the doorway behind us;"will you young people come in and have some breakfast?" |
20052 | My dear, is it your back again?" |
20052 | Nannie is miles and_ miles_ away from here by the cars, and how''re children like you ever going to get to her without money or anything? |
20052 | Now I''m sure you want to resume looking over that''Abbé Marité;''is n''t it quaint? |
20052 | Of course-- for old times''sake-- I looked her up and called,--handsome house, is n''t it? |
20052 | Oh, Felix, is n''t it_ splendid_?" |
20052 | Oh, may n''t I?" |
20052 | Oh, where_ am_ I to go?" |
20052 | Oh, why, then, did He not give me a body to match? |
20052 | Perhaps some of you would come over and see her? |
20052 | Say, who''s_ she_?" |
20052 | See? |
20052 | See?" |
20052 | Shall I run after him and_ make_ him come back?" |
20052 | Shall we make the selection? |
20052 | She said:"What''s wrong, Miss Elizabeth?" |
20052 | She was so sorry to hear that I was not well; was there nothing that she could do for me? |
20052 | So when I said,"Well, Jack, how''d you get along this morning?" |
20052 | Stop your noise this minute,--do you hear me?" |
20052 | That was the reason I wanted to go back to Chad''s that night,--was it_ only_ last night? |
20052 | The boys do n''t know I''ve come,--I thought I''d surprise them; and so I will, with the good news: you''ll promise, wo n''t you, papa?" |
20052 | The policemen may turn you out, and where will you all go_ then_? |
20052 | Then all at once I thought of that day I found Felix lying on the floor,--could this be an attack like that, only worse? |
20052 | Then he added abruptly,"_ Why_ did I do it? |
20052 | Then he added to himself,"I wonder if any one else in the world has such children as I have?" |
20052 | Then in the other hymn, where it says,"Finding, following, keeping, struggling, Is He sure to bless? |
20052 | Then presently, after Phil''d gone, he said:"Would you mind taking a seat over there in the window, Jack? |
20052 | Then, without waiting for an answer, he sat down on the edge of the bed, and went on, in an excited tone of voice,"Did you hear about the_ pater_? |
20052 | Well, let him; who cares? |
20052 | What are_ you_ doing here, in that outrageous costume, and in a stranger''s house? |
20052 | What can I do for you?" |
20052 | What d''you mean by behaving like this?" |
20052 | What d''you mean?" |
20052 | What do you think, Nannie?" |
20052 | What is the title of this''remarkable work''?" |
20052 | What possessed you? |
20052 | What shall we do to celebrate the occasion? |
20052 | What would_ she_ say to do?" |
20052 | What''d your pa say to such doin''s, an''Miss Marston? |
20052 | What''re you blushing for?" |
20052 | What''s the matter?" |
20052 | What''s up?" |
20052 | What''s up?" |
20052 | Whatever made you do it? |
20052 | Who else is to be a victim, Nancy?" |
20052 | Who is it to be,--Phil?" |
20052 | Why did n''t they ask_ you_?" |
20052 | Why do n''t you do it, old fellow?" |
20052 | Why do n''t you send Betty a few lines, Jack? |
20052 | Why do n''t you speak to them, Nannie?" |
20052 | Why so silent, most noble Felix?" |
20052 | Why, what are you doing?" |
20052 | Will you be kind enough to state your business as briefly as possible?" |
20052 | Will you, Jackie- boy?" |
20052 | Will you, dearie?" |
20052 | Will you? |
20052 | Without even a"how d''you do?" |
20052 | Wo n''t you? |
20052 | Would she send me home? |
20052 | You do n''t feel any worse for our talk,--do you, father?" |
20052 | You know nothing about cards; why do n''t you look on?" |
20052 | You know this park''s all very well for the day- time; but when night comes, and it gets dark, what''ll you do? |
20052 | You see,"he went on eagerly,"I''ve been praying for a way for Fee to go,--you have, too, have n''t you? |
20052 | [ Illustration:"''FEE, DEAR,''SHE SAID IN AN UNDERTONE,''DON''T YOU FEEL WELL? |
20052 | [ Illustration:"''OH,_ FEE!_ DID YOU FALL? |
20052 | [ Illustration:"''WHY, YOU''VE BEEN DOING THAT FOR A LONG TIME, HAVEN''T YOU?'' |
20052 | _ I_ thought he was rather a nice sort of fellow; what''s the matter, Betty, want any assistance?" |
20052 | _ did_ you?" |
20052 | _ do n''t_ you, Jack? |
20052 | and what''ll they do to us?" |
20052 | are n''t you glad? |
20052 | are you, Fee?" |
20052 | burn_ what_?" |
20052 | cried Nora, wheeling round on me,"and Jack? |
20052 | do you know why, Jack? |
20052 | dost thou see them On the holy ground, How the powers of darkness Rage thy steps around? |
20052 | exclaimed Phil, suddenly,"I say,--come to think of it,--how d''you suppose the_ Blackwoods_ enjoyed the orgy?" |
20052 | have you hurt yourself?" |
20052 | he exclaimed breathlessly,"what''s the matter? |
20052 | he exclaimed in astonishment;"_ two_ here? |
20052 | he gasped,"do you_ honestly_ think so? |
20052 | how do you do, my dear?" |
20052 | how is Fee?" |
20052 | in bed? |
20052 | is_ that_ so?" |
20052 | now is n''t it? |
20052 | nurse will be there in a minute,"adding impatiently to me:"What are you gaping at? |
20052 | really quite well?" |
20052 | really?" |
20052 | she asked anxiously;"before we get any dinner?" |
20052 | she exclaimed in astonishment,--adding, in a lower tone,"What''re you laughing at?" |
20052 | so polite, and different from the generality of boys,--don''t you think so?" |
20052 | we heard her say; then,"Have we time, Sanders? |
20052 | what''s happened to you,--crazy?" |
20052 | what_ have_ them boys been doin''?" |
20052 | what_ is_ the matter?" |
20052 | why''d you stop crying? |
20052 | will you?" |
20052 | you here?" |
11470 | ''Do you think we have been planted in this beautiful garden by mistake?'' 11470 ''Is that our fate?'' |
11470 | ''What are you here for?'' 11470 ''Why did you tell us to wait?'' |
11470 | Ah, nurse,she said, in her bright, brisk way;"he is like a cat, is n''t he? |
11470 | Am I a very selfish person, granny? |
11470 | Am I going to die? |
11470 | And I wonder which has the biggest soul? |
11470 | And is it hard being a soldier? 11470 And is that a will?" |
11470 | And what can a one- legged Bertram do? |
11470 | And who gave Rob to you, old chap? |
11470 | And who may ye be, a- wall climbin''and a breakin''over in folks''gardens to steal their fruit? |
11470 | And who will walk in mine when I''m dead, granny? |
11470 | And why have not two idle boys more time than a busy shopkeeper to do such a thing? |
11470 | And will he be sent to fight very soon? |
11470 | And wo n''t you like to come and live with me here? |
11470 | Are n''t you awfully hungry? 11470 Are you a drunkard?" |
11470 | Are you a fighter? |
11470 | Are you a liar? |
11470 | Are you going out this evening? |
11470 | Are you very hurt? 11470 But I shall go too, sha n''t I, Aunt Judy?" |
11470 | But most of the soldiers are n''t bad, are they? |
11470 | But will it? |
11470 | But, Aunt Judy, of course fighting is dreadful, but it is a soldier''s duty, is n''t it? |
11470 | Can we make our souls big? |
11470 | Can you lift yourself up, old Principle? 11470 Can you mend everything?" |
11470 | Did he get killed? |
11470 | Did the men stop swearing? |
11470 | Do legs_ never_ grow again like teeth? |
11470 | Do n''t you like Rob? |
11470 | Do n''t you like him? |
11470 | Do n''t you wish we could have a huge dust hole to empty all the nasty people and things in that we do n''t like? |
11470 | Do you believe in-- in God? |
11470 | Do you know Rob? 11470 Do you like it, David?" |
11470 | Do you think he is dead? |
11470 | Do you think he likes it? |
11470 | Do you think he might be strong enough? 11470 Do you think we ought to teach him?" |
11470 | Do you think your legs are broken like mine were? |
11470 | Does that mean he is going to cut it off? |
11470 | Dudley, are you asleep? |
11470 | Dudley, do you know what a will is? |
11470 | Dudley, we''ll always keep friends, wo n''t we? |
11470 | From Rob? |
11470 | Good- afternoon, Mrs. Cullen, how''s your husband to- day? |
11470 | Good- bye, Roy, ask to see me again, wo n''t you? |
11470 | Granny, if a person you like will do anything you like, ought you to make that person do what you like instead of what they like? |
11470 | Has he been wounded? 11470 Has he learned to read while I have been ill?" |
11470 | Has the hedge grown since our fathers were little boys? |
11470 | Have you been a naughty boy, Rob, and has old Hal been thrashing you? 11470 Have you ever been lost, Aunt Judy?" |
11470 | Have you ever killed anybody? |
11470 | He is an opportunity, and a pretty big one, is n''t he? |
11470 | He is busy in a cave now,said Dudley, eagerly;"would you like to come and see it one day?" |
11470 | He wanted to go first, and you did n''t like it, do n''t you remember? |
11470 | How are they going to cure me? |
11470 | How can we follow somebody we ca n''t see? |
11470 | How did it happen? |
11470 | How did you find us? 11470 How shall we get in?" |
11470 | How? |
11470 | Hulloo, you fellow,shouted Dudley in his shrill boyish treble;"where do you come from? |
11470 | I say--he gasped at last;"do you think-- I''m going to die-- this time?" |
11470 | I say, Roy,Dudley asked, very cautiously;"do n''t you feel very funny without it?" |
11470 | I shall have a lot of friends to stay with me, of course, and then I shall marry; men always do that, do n''t they? |
11470 | I wish,said Roy, reflectively,"that this cave was nearer home; it would be so lovely to come out whenever we wanted to, would n''t it, Dudley? |
11470 | I''m going to try and be very patient and not be cross once, for you''re our opportunity, or one of them, is n''t he, Dudley? |
11470 | I''m so sorry, old chap,he said, nervously;"do you feel really better? |
11470 | I''m very sorry, but do tell me if I died before I grew up, would Dudley have my house? |
11470 | I''ve always thought it would be very exciting to be lost,Roy said with a sigh;"but it does n''t seem very nice, does it? |
11470 | I''ve only made six mistakes and three blots,he said;"now may I drop the sealing wax over it? |
11470 | In the battle,''mid the rattle, and the deadly hail of lead, The two were in their glory-- What did they know of dread? 11470 Is it Master Roy?" |
11470 | Is it straight on? |
11470 | Is little Master Roy there? |
11470 | Is that all? |
11470 | Is that all? |
11470 | Is that the lad that brought you back? 11470 Is that the stream at the bottom of the back meadow?" |
11470 | Is that what makes a good soldier? |
11470 | It''s an opportunity, is n''t it, Dudley? 11470 John, it''s the most extraordinary thing-- oh, you are not here!--Where is Mr. Selby? |
11470 | Master Dudley, is it true, is he going to lose his legs? |
11470 | May I come in, granny? |
11470 | No,was the sleepy answer,"are n''t you well?" |
11470 | Now then, you rascals, what are you doing to my donkey? 11470 Now will you tell us the very bravest thing that you ever saw any soldier do?" |
11470 | Now, Aunt Judy, you would n''t have liked me not to have got out to that baby? |
11470 | Now, laddie, do n''t harden your heart, are you one of the Lord''s own children? |
11470 | Nurse,said Dudley that night as he was creeping into bed under her charge;"is Roy going to die?" |
11470 | Of course I do; what do you mean? 11470 Oh, nurse, he''s very bad, is n''t he? |
11470 | Oh, that''s the last idea, is it? 11470 Old Principle, do you think we ought to make opportunities?" |
11470 | P''raps you do n''t know about Jesus Christ? |
11470 | Please, can I speak to you on business, Master Roy? |
11470 | Regular little heroes, were n''t they? |
11470 | Shall I sing you something more cheerful? |
11470 | Shall I tell you a little story while we are waiting for tea? |
11470 | She ca n''t be lost; when did you have her last? |
11470 | Sit down, Fitz Roy; you are getting a big boy; have you been measured this morning? |
11470 | Sleep? 11470 Supposing if he does, and gets killed?" |
11470 | That''s a much nicer letter, is n''t it? |
11470 | Then there is hope I may do something,said Roy, brightening up;"I like that story about the walnuts, do n''t you, Dudley?" |
11470 | Then where were you going to sleep to- night? |
11470 | We have done him good already, have n''t we? |
11470 | We''re lost,shouted Dudley;"who are you? |
11470 | Well, I suppose they have been sailors? |
11470 | Well, old Principle, how are you? |
11470 | Well, what are you doing? |
11470 | What are you going to do, Rob? |
11470 | What do you mean? |
11470 | What do you think of my house, Rob? |
11470 | What have you been doing with yourselves? 11470 What is Rob going to do?" |
11470 | What is a philanthropist? |
11470 | What was it about? |
11470 | What''s the matter, Roger? |
11470 | When shall we have a letter from him? |
11470 | Where did you find it? |
11470 | Where do you live? 11470 Where do you live?" |
11470 | Where from? |
11470 | Who is Rob? |
11470 | Who is she? |
11470 | Who? 11470 Why do you write you''re my friend?" |
11470 | Why not? |
11470 | Would He forgive me, and help me? |
11470 | Would you rather see him die in lingering pain? |
11470 | Yes, please; we love a good rattling story; and make plenty of adventures in it, wo n''t you? |
11470 | Yes, what about it? |
11470 | Yes, what did you do with it? |
11470 | Yes,Dudley struck in:"you seem rather down, do you want anything that we can give you?" |
11470 | You are not going to die, Roy? |
11470 | You going to keep him back? 11470 You said a long time ago you could mend anything but broken hearts, but you ca n''t mend broken legs, can you? |
11470 | You think I''m like the dog in the manger? 11470 You''re going to get well, old chap, are n''t you? |
11470 | ''Comrades,''he cried;''would any of you allow your mother to be called evil names in the barrack- room?'' |
11470 | And are you lads still devoted friends?" |
11470 | And how does he look in his clothes?" |
11470 | And is he really going? |
11470 | And what''s your name?" |
11470 | And where do you sleep? |
11470 | And who else has been benefited by your good deeds?" |
11470 | Are you a thief?" |
11470 | Are you afraid?" |
11470 | Are you glad?" |
11470 | Are you hurt? |
11470 | Are you there?" |
11470 | Are your legs broken?" |
11470 | But I suppose you can learn, ca n''t you?" |
11470 | But we have helped to send you out to India to do it, Rob, so you wo n''t fail us, will you? |
11470 | But you did like saving a drowning fellow, did n''t you?" |
11470 | Ca n''t you think of him marching up to the enemy?" |
11470 | Can you tell me if it is far to fall?" |
11470 | Can you tell us where Crockton village is?" |
11470 | Could n''t I help you to roll over on your back, would n''t that be better?" |
11470 | Could you give him one of mine? |
11470 | Could you have put yourself in front of the sergeant, Dudley?" |
11470 | Could you teach him one day, and me the next? |
11470 | Did I make him go?" |
11470 | Did I send Rob to his death? |
11470 | Did you find Dudley very much heavier to carry than me?" |
11470 | Did you hear us shouting?" |
11470 | Did you tie up your feet like that yourself?" |
11470 | Do n''t you feel easier?" |
11470 | Do n''t you know much about God, Rob?" |
11470 | Do n''t you know who we are? |
11470 | Do n''t you long for something of that sort, eh?" |
11470 | Do n''t you think that''s a nice idea?" |
11470 | Do n''t you think we''d better be going in?" |
11470 | Do n''t you?" |
11470 | Do they let soldiers shoot rabbits on their half- holidays? |
11470 | Do you find broken bottles a soft cushion?" |
11470 | Do you not remember that I like you to come to me every afternoon about this hour?" |
11470 | Do you remember the picture gallery at the general''s the other day, Dudley?" |
11470 | Do you ride on a horse, and can you fire off the cannon? |
11470 | Do you see the outline of the fish? |
11470 | Do you think I''m a very poor body to look at, Rob? |
11470 | Do you think an opportunity is the same as an adventure? |
11470 | Do you think as how I could do it too?" |
11470 | Do you think that will do?" |
11470 | Does the band play while you are at dinner? |
11470 | Does the newspaper mention his name, Aunt Judy?" |
11470 | Dudley read the desired bit, and then with a deep drawn breath Roy said:"He acted out the song of the drummer boys, did n''t he? |
11470 | Dudley subsided at once; then after a silence he asked meekly,"Is that enough?" |
11470 | Dudley was silent for a minute, then he asked, solemnly,"And where is it, nurse?" |
11470 | Dudley, you just go and fetch him in, will you?" |
11470 | Have you been in many scrapes lately?" |
11470 | Have you been skylarking on the top of the greenhouse, and smashed through on Hal''s pate?" |
11470 | Have you brought me any message from your aunt?" |
11470 | Have you got a gun of your own? |
11470 | Have you got a sword and a medal? |
11470 | Have you made a choice of any profession yet, either of you?" |
11470 | He is well again, is n''t he?" |
11470 | He is what you call a discoverer, is n''t he?" |
11470 | How did you learn?" |
11470 | How do you think you two atoms could have got the better of a man like that? |
11470 | How is your friend old Principle? |
11470 | How is your grandmother? |
11470 | How many masters have you got? |
11470 | How many soldiers are there in the same house with you? |
11470 | I am going to the cave again-- will you come with me?" |
11470 | I do n''t think you have adventures of doing good, do you?" |
11470 | I like to think that Dudley may have it, he would make a grander master than me, would n''t he?" |
11470 | I never shall be much of a fellow, I know; but even with my cork leg I can do a good deal, ca n''t I?" |
11470 | I said''Are you comfortable, corporal?'' |
11470 | I say, do you think we could teach Rob cricket?" |
11470 | I suppose I would rather Rob was properly brave like that, than do great things in battle; but I should think he might do both, do n''t you think so?" |
11470 | I think I could stand fire like that, could n''t you?" |
11470 | I think I would rather die first, would n''t you?" |
11470 | I wish I could get you some water, but there''s none here, is there?" |
11470 | I''ve had a fall, have n''t I, Ben?" |
11470 | IV AN AWKWARD VISIT"And how do you know a river has been here?" |
11470 | Is he going to die? |
11470 | Is he still unearthing wonders and keeping them in his kettles?" |
11470 | Is it not a greater honor to help to save a soul from destruction, than bring glory to yourself by some feat of physical strength or skill? |
11470 | Is n''t that him walking along over there? |
11470 | Is n''t there enough room for me to get in, Dudley?" |
11470 | Is there anything else we can do for you?" |
11470 | It''s an opportunity, is n''t it?" |
11470 | It''s rather difficult to explain, but God punished Him_ instead_ of us, do you see? |
11470 | Now shall we go on with the reading?" |
11470 | Now tell me, are you really and truly happy?" |
11470 | Now tell me, could you do it? |
11470 | Now then, you do n''t mind my asking you a few questions, do you? |
11470 | Now what comfort can you find, may I ask, in such a blazing breakneck seat? |
11470 | Oh, dear, what can I do? |
11470 | Quite a Little Party of Friends to See Him Off Old Principle Laughed at Dudley''s Notion"Now Then, You Rascals, What Are You Doing to My Donkey?" |
11470 | Roy did not speak for a minute, then he said, slowly,"You remember my will that I made when I was so ill?" |
11470 | Roy lay back on his pillows to consider this; then he said in a tired voice:"Will you write what I want?" |
11470 | Roy nodded, then asked anxiously:"Dudley, were you rude to granny before you went out? |
11470 | Roy spoke scornfully, but his aunt shook her head at him:"Do you know this is the room I love best in the house? |
11470 | Said the Colonel,''How can babies of battle bear the brunt?'' |
11470 | Selby?" |
11470 | Shall we try again? |
11470 | Tell me, was it my fault? |
11470 | That is n''t very bad, is it?" |
11470 | That would be following him though he was dead, would n''t it?" |
11470 | Then after a pause--"I suppose he''ll be glad to see us?" |
11470 | There now, ai n''t that better?" |
11470 | They feel very heavy, and our stems ache with holding them up; do you think it just possible there may be something inside?'' |
11470 | They had been talking about Rob, when Roy said wistfully,"Rob used his opportunity when he got it, did n''t he? |
11470 | They never rode through a wood without having an adventure, and it was always doing good, was n''t it, granny?" |
11470 | They shut them up in it to talk, do n''t they, Aunt Judy?" |
11470 | We ca n''t get a word out of him; is there going to be any fighting? |
11470 | What are you doing?" |
11470 | What are your clothes like, and what are you to be called, now you''re a soldier? |
11470 | What did she mean? |
11470 | What do you have to eat? |
11470 | What do you think?" |
11470 | What have you been talking about? |
11470 | What is drill? |
11470 | What is the use of trying to grow? |
11470 | What mischief have you been up to?" |
11470 | What shall we do? |
11470 | What would you have done if I had n''t jumped in to save you?" |
11470 | What''s the good of being a soldier if you do n''t have any battles?" |
11470 | What? |
11470 | When do you begin to fight? |
11470 | When shall we see you again?" |
11470 | When will you be a sergeant, and is there any fighting coming off soon? |
11470 | Where are you?" |
11470 | Where have you been? |
11470 | Where?" |
11470 | Which do you?" |
11470 | Which is the elder? |
11470 | Why did she look so funny?" |
11470 | Wo n''t they make Rob see how he ought to write?" |
11470 | Would you like that?" |
11470 | XI A GIFT TO THE QUEEN"Can I see Master Roy, please?" |
11470 | You never guessed, did you? |
11470 | You will come with me, wo n''t you?" |
11470 | You wo n''t send me away, will you?" |
11470 | You would like to be free from it, would n''t you?" |
11470 | [ Illustration:"''Now then, you rascals, what are you doing to my donkey?''"] |
11470 | and oh, General Newton, is n''t that the Victoria Cross on his coat?" |
11470 | asked Dudley, eagerly;"the one with the hedge in front?" |
11470 | asked Rob;"are you quite sure He would care to have me for a servant?" |
11470 | asked Roy, anxiously;"do you like being a soldier?" |
11470 | asked Roy, eagerly, after their first greetings had been exchanged;"you are n''t going home again?" |
11470 | asked Roy;"why are you muttering away and shaking your head so?" |
11470 | laughed the sparrows;''who ever heard of the inside being better than the outside? |
11470 | questioned Roy, flushing up with eagerness;"do you think it will? |
4296 | Where be''est going? |
4296 | ''Ai n''t I to have no supper?'' |
4296 | ''Alfred,''said Ellen,''do you know where Harold is? |
4296 | ''All what?'' |
4296 | ''And before that?'' |
4296 | ''And can nothing be done, Sir, when he feels so sinking and weak?'' |
4296 | ''And does that make you glad?'' |
4296 | ''And he seems to be the chief sufferer.--Are you in much pain, Paul?'' |
4296 | ''And how did he teach you?'' |
4296 | ''And may I think that all my faults will be taken away and forgiven?'' |
4296 | ''And what did he say to that boy?'' |
4296 | ''And what did he say?'' |
4296 | ''And what good will that be to- night?'' |
4296 | ''And when he was not?'' |
4296 | ''And where did you say--?'' |
4296 | ''And where''s the grub?'' |
4296 | ''And who is the boy that came to help you?'' |
4296 | ''And you did n''t see which way he was gone?'' |
4296 | ''And you do not grieve over your year of illness?'' |
4296 | ''And you have not sent him to the workhouse yet?'' |
4296 | ''Ay? |
4296 | ''But did she say so?'' |
4296 | ''But does it mean me?'' |
4296 | ''But how ought I to believe, Sir?'' |
4296 | ''But if I ca n''t do anything to make up for them, what''s the use? |
4296 | ''But is n''t it punishment?'' |
4296 | ''But of this?'' |
4296 | ''But where did he come from?'' |
4296 | ''But where-- which way is he gone?'' |
4296 | ''But who taught him about Cayenne?'' |
4296 | ''But why do you think he would be?'' |
4296 | ''But you do n''t think I shall get well, Mother?'' |
4296 | ''D''ye know where Paul Blackthorn is?'' |
4296 | ''D''ye think I''d care for stuff like that?'' |
4296 | ''Did I?'' |
4296 | ''Did Miss Selby give you those flowers?'' |
4296 | ''Did he say so, Mother?'' |
4296 | ''Did n''t the inspector want you to go to a training- school?'' |
4296 | ''Did they ever know who he belonged to?'' |
4296 | ''Did you ever make out a bill?'' |
4296 | ''Did you like it?'' |
4296 | ''Did you never think it hard to be kept strictly, and punished by your good mother?'' |
4296 | ''Did you wish it?'' |
4296 | ''Do you know he slept all night on a hay- cock?'' |
4296 | ''Do you know if many of the boys are gone to the merry orchard?'' |
4296 | ''Do you know who the fellow was?'' |
4296 | ''Do you remember when we used to bathe together, Harold, and go after the minnows?'' |
4296 | ''Do you think you can keep the ticket safe if I give it you now, Paul?'' |
4296 | ''Does he think he shall get well?'' |
4296 | ''Eh?'' |
4296 | ''Every one is sinful,''said Alfred slowly;''but why have some more to bear than others that may be much worse?'' |
4296 | ''Have they? |
4296 | ''Have you not seen him since? |
4296 | ''Have you seen my boy Harold?'' |
4296 | ''Here, Nelly,''as she moved about, tidying the room,''do you hear? |
4296 | ''How can you, Alfred, speak so to Mother?'' |
4296 | ''How has he ever got the dog up the ladder?'' |
4296 | ''How is he, Paul?'' |
4296 | ''How long ago was this?'' |
4296 | ''How shall I, Sir?'' |
4296 | ''How should I know?'' |
4296 | ''However did you do it?'' |
4296 | ''I say, Harold, do n''t ye never put one of they letters in your pocket?'' |
4296 | ''I say, would n''t you like to be one of they chaps at Ragglesford School?'' |
4296 | ''Is Harold come safe?'' |
4296 | ''Is it-- is it very dreadful?'' |
4296 | ''Is not he come home?'' |
4296 | ''Is that another new parson?'' |
4296 | ''Is that boy gone?'' |
4296 | ''Is that he upon the bridge-- that chap about the size of our Harold?'' |
4296 | ''Is the ointment come?'' |
4296 | ''Is the pain so very bad?'' |
4296 | ''It is nothing infectious, of course, Sir?'' |
4296 | ''May I go up?'' |
4296 | ''Mother, Mother,''Alfred cried in a whisper, so eager that it made him cough,''you ca n''t never send him to the workhouse?'' |
4296 | ''No, Mother; but if it ai n''t here long? |
4296 | ''No,''he said, beginning to get sulky because he felt he was wrong;''only Peggy lost a shoe--''''Lame?'' |
4296 | ''Nobody got at the horses?'' |
4296 | ''Not all for me?'' |
4296 | ''O Mother, must you speak the truth?'' |
4296 | ''O mother, what do you think? |
4296 | ''Oh, did n''t you hear? |
4296 | ''Oh, will you tell Grandmamma?'' |
4296 | ''So you have this youth here?'' |
4296 | ''That''s to settle for me, then,''he said; and Harold who was at tea, asking,''What''s that?'' |
4296 | ''The Reverend-- what''s his name? |
4296 | ''The lad?'' |
4296 | ''The place is n''t to be harbouring thieves and vagrants, or who''s to pay the rates? |
4296 | ''Then she did n''t think I''d taken the eggs?'' |
4296 | ''Then what did you bring all that good- for- nothing set roaring and shouting up the road for? |
4296 | ''Then what''s all this? |
4296 | ''Then you do n''t think he is getting any better, Sir?'' |
4296 | ''Then you think this poor lad will be ill a long time, Sir?'' |
4296 | ''Then you ventured to wait?'' |
4296 | ''Then you wo n''t?'' |
4296 | ''There, wo n''t you be raised up to see her? |
4296 | ''Upon your word and honour?'' |
4296 | ''Was he there?'' |
4296 | ''Was it pain that kept you awake?'' |
4296 | ''Well, Alfred, how are you to- day?'' |
4296 | ''Well, Paul, then he is not worse?'' |
4296 | ''Well, and what you do think now you''ve tried your liberty?'' |
4296 | ''Well, but am I?'' |
4296 | ''Well, old chaps, have you quarrelled yet? |
4296 | ''Well, what are you doing here?'' |
4296 | ''Well, what is become of them?'' |
4296 | ''Well,''he said,''and what wilt get by it?'' |
4296 | ''What are you gaping at?'' |
4296 | ''What did you say?'' |
4296 | ''What do you mean, Mother?'' |
4296 | ''What do you say, Harold?'' |
4296 | ''What do you see, Mother?'' |
4296 | ''What is he, then? |
4296 | ''What is it? |
4296 | ''What was the chaplain''s name?'' |
4296 | ''What, Alfy dear? |
4296 | ''What, Mrs. King? |
4296 | ''What, and turned him off?'' |
4296 | ''What, is he asleep?'' |
4296 | ''What, quarrelling here? |
4296 | ''What, the dirty boy? |
4296 | ''What? |
4296 | ''What?'' |
4296 | ''Who taught you all this, Paul?'' |
4296 | ''Who told you I was with bad company?'' |
4296 | ''Who told you to put in your word, John Farden?'' |
4296 | ''Who''s there? |
4296 | ''Who? |
4296 | ''Who? |
4296 | ''Who?'' |
4296 | ''Why did n''t you bring him up with you?'' |
4296 | ''Why did n''t you lick him?'' |
4296 | ''Why did you never let me know how you were treated?'' |
4296 | ''Why do n''t thee cut?'' |
4296 | ''Why, did not we tell you what a real beautiful sermon the new clergyman preached on Sunday? |
4296 | ''Why, do n''t we all know that you''re one of the parson''s own sort? |
4296 | ''Why, how do you know?'' |
4296 | ''Why, old chap, what is it? |
4296 | ''Why, what harm is there in eating a few cherries?'' |
4296 | ''Why, what would he do to her? |
4296 | ''Why, what''ll they do to ye?'' |
4296 | ''Why, what''s put that in your head?'' |
4296 | ''Why, what''s the matter now?'' |
4296 | ''Would you take that?'' |
4296 | ''Yes,''said Harold,''I''d better have told him of that when I was about it; do n''t you think so, Nelly?'' |
4296 | ''You are quite sure it is not so?'' |
4296 | ''You going away, Paul?'' |
4296 | ''You''ll have him too ill to be moved; and then what will you do? |
4296 | ''You''ve not sent Harold off for the cart?'' |
4296 | ''You, going to cut?'' |
4296 | ''Your lass would n''t like to come too, I suppose, eh?'' |
4296 | Alfred answered rather fretfully,''But if it is good to be punished, why ai n''t all alike?'' |
4296 | Alfred smiled, and said,''Please, Sir, how old is he?'' |
4296 | Am I interrupting--?'' |
4296 | And Harold, he is but fourteen-- would he be old enough, Sir?'' |
4296 | And if he shot away his half- pence, how should he pay for the shoeing of the pony? |
4296 | And if you could make him look a little more decent?'' |
4296 | And the time? |
4296 | And was this his resolution? |
4296 | And what did you say you were to be, Paul?'' |
4296 | And what made you so taken up with that new boy that Ellen runs on against, and will have it he''s a convict?'' |
4296 | And what''s your name?'' |
4296 | And where was Harold? |
4296 | Betsey Hardman? |
4296 | But how did my Lady come to hear of it?'' |
4296 | But how ever did he know?'' |
4296 | But how long might this life be? |
4296 | But what could she say? |
4296 | But what did Ellen mean?'' |
4296 | But what did you say about some eggs?'' |
4296 | But what made you go off without a word to nobody?'' |
4296 | But who''s that?'' |
4296 | CHAPTER VI-- THE MERRY ORCHARD Where was Harold? |
4296 | Can you tell me what books you used to read to this master?'' |
4296 | Cope promised me?'' |
4296 | Cope pushed it towards him, and said,''Well, will you mind letting me see how you can write from dictation?'' |
4296 | Cope repeated,''Eh, Paul?'' |
4296 | Cope will know him?'' |
4296 | Cope''s doing, or my Lady''s?'' |
4296 | Cope''s droll way of putting it,''I never meant--''''Well, but what were you thinking of?'' |
4296 | Cope''s got an offer of a place for Paul-- five pounds a year, and board and lodging, to be school- master''s whipper- in, or what d''ye call it?'' |
4296 | Cope-- were you there? |
4296 | Could Jem think he had been a wicked boy, and take it as punishment? |
4296 | Dear dear Alf, is it anything dreadful?'' |
4296 | Did he make anything out of him?'' |
4296 | Did n''t he go to church with you?'' |
4296 | Did they disturb the pony? |
4296 | Did you ever see such a figure? |
4296 | Do not these cases often partially recover?'' |
4296 | Do you leave him quite alone? |
4296 | Does Mother keep you too short?'' |
4296 | Eh?'' |
4296 | Go on now, Harold; what about the boy?'' |
4296 | Harold made a very queer face, and said,''How is he to do it up in the hay- loft, Mother? |
4296 | Has he been begging?'' |
4296 | Has the doctor been?'' |
4296 | Have you been jolly together? |
4296 | Have you finished the last?'' |
4296 | Have you got knit up with cold, sitting here?'' |
4296 | He did once take courage to say to Harold,''Did your sister really say I had run away from gaol?'' |
4296 | He heard all, but he chose to seem to be asleep, and, would you believe it? |
4296 | He is merciful, do n''t you know?'' |
4296 | He is not gone, is he?'' |
4296 | He seemed to have a great mind not to hear, and turned very slowly with his shoulder towards her, making a sound like''Eh?'' |
4296 | How d''ye know?'' |
4296 | How did you come to think of it?'' |
4296 | How did you manage that, Paul?'' |
4296 | I hope his majesty does not like bad company?'' |
4296 | I see him under that shed, and who is that lad with him? |
4296 | If he should be worse, will you send this to Mr. Carter, at Ragglesford? |
4296 | Is Charlie Hayward there? |
4296 | Is he so very fractious, then?'' |
4296 | Is it the other monarch''s charge?'' |
4296 | Is n''t that the way you may be to follow Him?'' |
4296 | Is that it?'' |
4296 | Moreover, whither did that path of suffering lead? |
4296 | Mother, what are you thinking of?'' |
4296 | Mr. Blunt, however, came, and at any rate he would have it out with him; so he asked at once very straightforwardly,''Am I going to die, Sir?'' |
4296 | Mrs. King felt sorrowful; but, as Ellen said,''What could you expect of him?'' |
4296 | My eggs are gone, I tell you, and who should take''em but that lad, I''d like to know?'' |
4296 | Nay, had He not raised him up friends already in his utmost need? |
4296 | Now, do you know what they are?'' |
4296 | Oh dear, would the night never be over? |
4296 | Old pony tumbled down dead?'' |
4296 | Peter?'' |
4296 | Please, Sir, when I''m gone away, will you tell them all that I''ll never forget''em? |
4296 | She asked Harold about it, and had for answer,''Do you think he would, after the way you served him?'' |
4296 | She would have shrieked for her mother, but he held out his hand, and said, in a low hoarse whisper,''Ellen, is it true?'' |
4296 | Sure he is not gone to the merry orchard?'' |
4296 | That would just have made it up, but what hopes were there of that? |
4296 | Was it Harold? |
4296 | Was it because he had such an affliction?'' |
4296 | Was it brotherly love? |
4296 | Was it the taking up the cross so as to bear it like his Saviour, Who spoke no word of complaining, no murmur against His tormentors? |
4296 | Was not He touched with a fellow- feeling for the lonely boy? |
4296 | Was she coming? |
4296 | Was this patience? |
4296 | Was this the shewing the sincerity of his repentance through his conduct in illness? |
4296 | Well, and ca n''t you stop a minute to say how your poor brother is?'' |
4296 | Well, and do you know where this place was?'' |
4296 | Well, and how are the bones, Paul? |
4296 | Well, and then may n''t yours be being plagued and bullied, without any friends? |
4296 | What business had every one to set up that great hoarse laugh? |
4296 | What could he have been thinking about? |
4296 | What did they say? |
4296 | What do you think of it, Paul?'' |
4296 | What is the matter?'' |
4296 | What was his mother saying? |
4296 | What was that she had heard? |
4296 | What will become of me?'' |
4296 | What would become of Mother and me?'' |
4296 | What would they say at the post- office? |
4296 | What''s the row? |
4296 | Whatever does he want?'' |
4296 | Where does he come from?'' |
4296 | Which part of England?'' |
4296 | Which was nearest being right? |
4296 | Who could have said it? |
4296 | Who did you leave her with?'' |
4296 | Who is he, Ellen?'' |
4296 | Who said it? |
4296 | Who was ever a good boy if you was not?'' |
4296 | Who was he?'' |
4296 | Who would have thought, that not six months ago that poor cripple was the merriest and most active boy in the parish? |
4296 | Whom is he helping over the stile? |
4296 | Why did n''t you?'' |
4296 | Why do n''t you get some of them boxes of pills, that does cures wonderful? |
4296 | Why do you wish to know? |
4296 | Why had not he asked? |
4296 | Why, Mrs. King, what have I said? |
4296 | Why, what''s the matter?'' |
4296 | Will he beg of him?'' |
4296 | Wo n''t you?'' |
4296 | Would He not help him to bear his friendless lot as a share of His own Cross? |
4296 | You said nothing of Alfred; do you think he will not be well enough?'' |
4296 | You''ll be one with me then, Paul?'' |
4296 | and she was going to lift him up, but he only murmured a cross''Ca n''t you be quiet?'' |
4296 | and so they keep him for a school- master?'' |
4296 | are you worse?'' |
4296 | cried Alfred, raising himself and panting;''and where did he go first?'' |
4296 | cried Ellen eagerly,''is anything the matter?'' |
4296 | cried the farmer, turning on Paul angrily;''d''ye mean to waste any more of the day?'' |
4296 | does the doctor think so ill of him? |
4296 | exclaimed Alfred, in dismay;''you wo n''t let her come up here, Mother?'' |
4296 | how should I know?'' |
4296 | not since I''ve been at Friarswood?'' |
4296 | or ha''n''t you got the money? |
4296 | said Alfred;''do n''t you know how the Psalm says,"God careth for the stranger, and provideth for the fatherless and the widow"?'' |
4296 | said Ellen, who was busy shaking her mother''s bed, and had not heard at the first moment, but now turned eagerly;''what did you say his name was?'' |
4296 | said Harold--''an old skinflint like Farmer Shepherd''s old woman?'' |
4296 | said John,''what good''ll that do ye?'' |
4296 | said Paul,''what do you want of me?'' |
4296 | was it not crossing him how impossible it would seem to do anything to vex one who so cared for him? |
4296 | what could he do to her, with all the hay- field and Farmer Shepherd there to take care of her? |
4296 | what is that?'' |
4296 | what shall I do?'' |
4296 | what would she not have given for power to listen to her mother, and cry at her ease? |
52782 | ''Hello,''says I,''when did you git in? 52782 About what matter?" |
52782 | Ah, you''re finding our boy out, eh? |
52782 | Ai n''t you going for to make some sorter effort to git your hosses out of the field? |
52782 | Ai n''t you got no sense? 52782 All the way through the dark for that? |
52782 | And so this is Mr. Simmons, the famous negro hunter? |
52782 | And so you did n''t catch him; and your fine dogs are finer now than they ever were? |
52782 | And then what? |
52782 | And what was you doing all that time? |
52782 | And what wonderful person will do this for you, my boy? |
52782 | And when are you going home to your master? |
52782 | Are you still in the woods, Aaron? |
52782 | But if we find them, Son of Ben Ali? |
52782 | But what was the nigger doing at your place? |
52782 | But, Colonel, if he''s that, what do you want him caught for? |
52782 | But, Colonel,drawled Mr. Simmons,"what under the sun ever got the idee in your head that Addison Abercrombie_ is_ harboring your nigger?" |
52782 | But, Colonel,remonstrated Mr. Jim Simmons,"did n''t you send for me? |
52782 | By what means did you know that the horse had been left without food and water? |
52782 | Can you pass them here? |
52782 | Can you walk, Master? |
52782 | Dat ar Aaron had um atter''i m, an''what''d he do? |
52782 | Den how come I ca n''t fool dem ar dogs? |
52782 | Did I say that? 52782 Did anybody cross from the other side this morning?" |
52782 | Did he go into the cabins? |
52782 | Did n''t you hear him when he butted me? |
52782 | Did you fellows see It? |
52782 | Did you notice,said the young man who was first to see the apparition,"that the Thing that was riding the Thing had no head?" |
52782 | Do n''t he open on track? |
52782 | Do n''t you know dey done foun''out whar you stays at? 52782 Do n''t you know what a runaway is? |
52782 | Do you think you''d''a''caught him, Colonel, taking into account all the circumstances and things? |
52782 | Ear- marks? 52782 Got who?" |
52782 | Have you ever paid Abercrombie? |
52782 | Have you ever visited that country? |
52782 | Have you seen a pistol lying loose anywhere around here? |
52782 | Here? |
52782 | Honey, ai n''t it de trufe? |
52782 | How came it so red, den? |
52782 | How come any chil''out dis time er night? |
52782 | How come, I like ter know? |
52782 | How come? 52782 How come?" |
52782 | How long have you been standing here? |
52782 | How you know? |
52782 | Hurt much, Master? |
52782 | I charged you interest, did n''t I, Simmons? |
52782 | I did n''t say I was going to catch him, did I? |
52782 | I did n''t say he could n''t get away from my dogs, did I? |
52782 | I''d git de meat-- but dey mout ketch''i m, an''den what''d I look like? |
52782 | If they were after the runaway, what on earth did he mean by going in this direction? |
52782 | Is anybody ever hear de beat er dat? 52782 Is dat Aaron?" |
52782 | Is that Sound? |
52782 | Is that so? |
52782 | Is that so? |
52782 | Is that so? |
52782 | Jim Simmons? 52782 Jimmy, you did n''t go and apologize to that old buzzard for what I said, did you?" |
52782 | Kin you handle dish yer paddle? 52782 Man, ai n''t you tired?" |
52782 | Man, what you think? |
52782 | May I ask the old man there a few questions? |
52782 | Me? 52782 Me? |
52782 | Me? |
52782 | Mine? 52782 Nothing?" |
52782 | Of course they are-- how can they help themselves? |
52782 | Of course you believed in the country next door to the world? |
52782 | Oh, have you been admitted to the sanctum? |
52782 | On what bank, Gossett? |
52782 | Only three, Son of Ben Ali? 52782 Shall I go too?" |
52782 | Shall I have Timoleon put in the new stable to- night? |
52782 | Shall I ride him down, Son of Ben Ali? |
52782 | Shall I use a club on you, White Grunter? 52782 Sho nuff?" |
52782 | Suh? |
52782 | Supposing you had,suggested Mr. Simmons,"would you''a''done it? |
52782 | That you, Terrell? |
52782 | The child with the crutches? |
52782 | The missing boat? 52782 Then that''s the reason you think Abercrombie ai n''t harboring my nigger?" |
52782 | Up or down? |
52782 | Was a bateau missing from this side this morning? |
52782 | Was anybody with you in the bateau when you went down the river this morning? |
52782 | Was he in that one? |
52782 | Well? |
52782 | Were the bloodhounds after him? |
52782 | Were you hunting the runaway? |
52782 | Whar yo''huffs? 52782 What Aaron done done?" |
52782 | What are the ear- marks, ma''am? |
52782 | What are you crying about? |
52782 | What dat? |
52782 | What dey doin''out dar? |
52782 | What did you find? |
52782 | What did you see? 52782 What do I think? |
52782 | What do you see in the man? |
52782 | What do you suppose the trouble was? |
52782 | What do you think now? |
52782 | What has this great man ever done for you, Simmons? |
52782 | What horse? |
52782 | What is the noise about, Lucy? |
52782 | What is your name? |
52782 | What kind er folks is you? |
52782 | What two things, Colonel? |
52782 | What was that dog barking at just now? |
52782 | What was the trouble, Randall? |
52782 | What were they talking about? |
52782 | What wid? |
52782 | What yo''name? |
52782 | What you doin''? |
52782 | What you gwine ter do? |
52782 | What you gwine ter lan''on the same side wid Jim Simmons fer? |
52782 | What''s that? |
52782 | What''s that? |
52782 | What''s what? |
52782 | What''s your name? |
52782 | When was that? |
52782 | Where did the voice come from? |
52782 | Where is this country that is next door to the world? |
52782 | Where is your runaway? 52782 Where''s my pistol?" |
52782 | Where''s the ford? |
52782 | Whereabouts is that country? |
52782 | Which way did It go? |
52782 | Which way did he go, Uncle Jake? |
52782 | White er blue? |
52782 | Who are you? |
52782 | Who carried the bateau over the shoals this morning? |
52782 | Who is you? 52782 Who lives there?" |
52782 | Who said anything about fire? 52782 Who was it?" |
52782 | Who was with you in the bateau? |
52782 | Who''s behind you? |
52782 | Who? 52782 Who?" |
52782 | Why did you come? |
52782 | Why, confound it, do n''t you know this horse is as wild as a buck? 52782 Whyn''t you go in an''see whether Aaron was in there?" |
52782 | Would you teach me? |
52782 | Wuz you, sho nuff? |
52782 | Yes, ai n''t that Gossett? |
52782 | Yes, where? |
52782 | You are still anxious to punish the poor man who was hurt by the horse? |
52782 | You gwine dar to Gossett''s? 52782 You know that new school teacher at Abercrombie''s?" |
52782 | You wish what? |
52782 | You''ve saved your$ 30, hain''t you? |
52782 | You? 52782 Your runaway? |
52782 | A runaway sitting by his side and driving a fractious and easily frightened horse without bit or bridle? |
52782 | A''on gwine in dar en put dat ar hoss up? |
52782 | Ai n''t you coming? |
52782 | Am I a horse to be ridden? |
52782 | An''whar de lines? |
52782 | And more than that: do n''t I know from my own niggers that the yaller rapscallion comes here every chance he gets? |
52782 | And the reply was,"Well, why not?" |
52782 | And was it truly true that he had ever worn a shoe as small as that? |
52782 | And who''s going to hurt me, pap?" |
52782 | And why did Susy''s Sam hang back and want to turn his mule around before he had finished the furrow? |
52782 | And why should he come whirling back at dusk,--a red cloud of dust rising beneath the Gray Pony''s feet? |
52782 | Are you fixing to have me killed? |
52782 | But did Aaron have the same power over his own master? |
52782 | But what difference did that make? |
52782 | But what is it to be touched? |
52782 | But where? |
52782 | Ca n''t you put him in his stable?" |
52782 | Ca n''t you talk? |
52782 | Could it be that by some noiseless shifting of the scenery he was even now in the country next door to the world? |
52782 | De speckled pullet hollered shoo ter hawk, but what good did dat do?" |
52782 | Did he know the paths? |
52782 | Did n''t Aaron belong to Chunky Riley''s master? |
52782 | Did n''t he double and turn and go back the way he came, to be caught and killed on dry land? |
52782 | Did n''t he have the Simmons nigger- dogs after him that very day? |
52782 | Did n''t his master try to catch him? |
52782 | Did n''t the Colonel send one of his nigger women to the quarters on the Abercrombie plantation? |
52782 | Did n''t the woman say she had seen the runaway? |
52782 | Did n''t you buy him and pay your money down for him? |
52782 | Did n''t you say,''Glad to see you, Simmons; walk right in and make yourself at home''? |
52782 | Do n''t you know dey er gwine ter hunt you in de mornin''? |
52782 | Do n''t you know dey got de dogs dar? |
52782 | Do n''t you know he''ll ketch you ef you do dat? |
52782 | Do n''t you know some er de niggers''ll see you-- an''maybe de overseer? |
52782 | Do n''t you know you ca n''t git away fum dem dogs fer ter save yo''life?" |
52782 | Do n''t you reckon you could tell when anybody was trying to insult you? |
52782 | Do n''t you think it''s cunning?" |
52782 | Do n''t you want him out of the woods? |
52782 | Do n''t you want ter b''long ter Sally Ward?" |
52782 | Do you blame me, Colonel?" |
52782 | Do you keep him in a box and permit only your best friends to peep at him occasionally?" |
52782 | Ear- marks? |
52782 | Ef I squeeze too tight, des say de word;"and then,"Whar we gwine, honey? |
52782 | Fer catching the nigger? |
52782 | Fullalove?" |
52782 | Git him out, did I say? |
52782 | Had he seen the horses? |
52782 | Has he escaped?" |
52782 | Have stray dogs crept under the door? |
52782 | He felt that he and his father had been wronged by some one, he could n''t say who, but not by the runaway, for what was a"nigger,"anyhow? |
52782 | He jumped as if he had heard the report of a gun, and cried out in a tone of alarm:--"Who flung dat rock? |
52782 | He knew by the scent of the cigar that the voices he heard belonged to white men: but who were they? |
52782 | Him harbor niggers? |
52782 | Hit''s some trouble ter git de corn off''n de cob, but spozen dey want no corn on de cob, what den?" |
52782 | How am I to do it?" |
52782 | How come dey ai n''t no niggers but de Gossett niggers in de woods? |
52782 | How come you got ter go up de river?" |
52782 | How come you ter know''bout de missin''boat?" |
52782 | How could this be? |
52782 | How did Aaron know that the horse had gone without water and food? |
52782 | How did he know? |
52782 | How did the Swamp know? |
52782 | I tried to make the hoss stand, but he would n''t, and, just then, what should I see but two great big wildcats trying to sneak up on me? |
52782 | I wonder if he''s taken up over here? |
52782 | I''m so small, and-- and so crippled, you know, nobody would ever think I had a runaway?" |
52782 | If Aaron really had any influence over his own master, why did n''t he stay at home instead of going into the woods? |
52782 | If it was too late for him to learn the language of the animals, how could he hope to interpret the prophecies of the constellations? |
52782 | If we find them, shall I use my teeth?" |
52782 | Is anybody ever see de beat er dat? |
52782 | Is that it?" |
52782 | Is we dat close?" |
52782 | Jimmy do n''t owe you nothin'', does he?" |
52782 | Man, who is you?" |
52782 | Marster, how in de name er goodness kin you drive dish yer hoss widout bridle er lines?" |
52782 | May I examine your neck to see what can be done?" |
52782 | Me?" |
52782 | Now what do you pay me fer? |
52782 | Now, how come dat? |
52782 | Now, if he was n''t a nigger what was he trying to play nigger for? |
52782 | Now, was n''t he wise for his age? |
52782 | Now, where does he go?" |
52782 | Oh, is n''t there some one to hear me?" |
52782 | Once there, was there a hound that would venture to take a bath with him? |
52782 | Saddle''em by sun- up? |
52782 | Says he,''Will you please, sir, give me as much as a spoonful of low- wines for to rub on my legs?'' |
52782 | Shall I make bacon of you? |
52782 | She''s a scorcher, ai n''t she?" |
52782 | Smoke without fire? |
52782 | Suppose that some quagmire or other in that there swamp has gone and got up a ruction on its own hook? |
52782 | That is, if Aaron could n''t call the elements to his aid-- but suppose he could? |
52782 | Was he following the rolling echoes? |
52782 | Was he listening? |
52782 | Was it Mr. Coon or Cousin Coon? |
52782 | Was it for this,--for this,--her darling child had been born? |
52782 | Was it indeed true? |
52782 | Was it the runaway''s intention to jump suddenly from the buggy and strike the horse with the whip? |
52782 | Was n''t he a runaway? |
52782 | Was n''t there a snap and a snarl when the partridge- pea vine caught his foot? |
52782 | Was n''t there a splash and a splutter as he ran into the quagmire? |
52782 | Was one of the bateaux missing this morning?" |
52782 | Well, then, why did n''t his master keep Aaron while he had him in the buggy? |
52782 | Were n''t the chances ten to one that when she saw him she told him that Simmons would be after him in the morning? |
52782 | Whar you say de key is?" |
52782 | What about foxfire? |
52782 | What am I that my food should be thrown at me through the cracks? |
52782 | What am I to do to- day?" |
52782 | What are you doing now?" |
52782 | What could the Little Master want at this early hour? |
52782 | What could the rest hope for if so fierce a creature as the White Pig could be disposed of in this fashion? |
52782 | What demon was this that had seized the White Grunter and was carrying him off? |
52782 | What does that mean?" |
52782 | What have you done with your hosses?" |
52782 | What living and moving creetur could build a fire in that thicket? |
52782 | What man am I to carry, Son of Ben Ali?" |
52782 | What then? |
52782 | What then? |
52782 | What was he up to? |
52782 | What was the rider''s errand? |
52782 | What was this going on right before his eyes? |
52782 | What yo''name, honey?" |
52782 | What''d I do out dar by myse''f at night? |
52782 | What''s to hinder you? |
52782 | What, then, was to be done? |
52782 | When did you come to like me so well?" |
52782 | When everything was ready, the question arose, how was the horse to be removed to his new quarters? |
52782 | When the time comes for the cart I shall have-- what do you call it?" |
52782 | Where did the nigger go? |
52782 | Where''ve you been?" |
52782 | Who are you, anyhow?" |
52782 | Who else would dare to hurt him, or even threaten to hurt him? |
52782 | Who is dat? |
52782 | Who knows? |
52782 | Who stopped him?" |
52782 | Who talked of turns where the Little Master was concerned? |
52782 | Who''s going to know where the fire is?" |
52782 | Who, then, but Abercrombie? |
52782 | Why could n''t the track dogs catch him? |
52782 | Why did he sit still and allow the runaway to go back to the woods? |
52782 | Why not stay here with me to- morrow, and the next day?" |
52782 | Why should I doubt your word?" |
52782 | Why should he go skimming along the red road at day dawn? |
52782 | Why, then, should a thin but steady stream of blue smoke be constantly rising upwards from the centre of Spivey''s Canebrake? |
52782 | Why, what on the face of the earth do you mean? |
52782 | Why? |
52782 | Why? |
52782 | Why? |
52782 | Will dey ketch you ef I tell?" |
52782 | Would Mr. Coon of the Swamp ever be caught on dry land? |
52782 | Would she hasten it? |
52782 | You ca n''t help seeing what''s right at you, can you?" |
52782 | You reckon he gwine ter foller you ter de landin''en den turn right''roun''in his tracks en go back?" |
52782 | You''d have Jim Simmons''s nigger dogs atter you, an''den what''d you do?" |
52782 | Your name, Son of Ben Ali?" |
52782 | [ Illustration: HE EDGED AWAY AS FAR AS HE COULD]"What is it?" |
52782 | [ Illustration: THE EXCITED HORSE PLUNGED ALONG]"Hurt much?" |
52782 | [ Illustration: THE HORSES WERE RIGHT AT HIS HEELS]"Is anybody ever see de beat er dat?" |
52782 | and"Whar you been, Little Marster, dat we ai n''t seed you sence day''fo''yistiddy?" |
52782 | he cried;"ai n''t he your nigger? |
52782 | he cried;"what queer country is this, where all the birds are headless? |
52782 | how can you put such an idea in the child''s mind?" |
52782 | insisted Mr. Jim Simmons with his careless, irritating drawl,"ai n''t it a plum''fact that this nigger''s been in the woods a month or sech a matter? |
32279 | ''What is it, Rosalie?'' 32279 ''What is that, Brother? |
32279 | A what? |
32279 | About Jack? |
32279 | All right,he said bravely,"I''ll go, only-- only, may I kiss mother good- night first?" |
32279 | And Uncle Jack, was he angry too? |
32279 | And did n''t your father ever forgive you? |
32279 | And does that make a difference? |
32279 | And have you no relations who could afford to help you-- no uncles or aunts, for instance? |
32279 | And he thinks-- he thinks that something might be done, so that Jack would be able to walk like other people? |
32279 | And how did you amuse yourself all day in the house? |
32279 | And how is your little brother to- day? |
32279 | And if he is dead, who is the lord now? |
32279 | And is n''t it funny? 32279 And what am I?" |
32279 | And who will be Lord Carresford when you-- after you get through? |
32279 | And why lords in particular? |
32279 | And you have since discovered that I am not such a very solemn person after all, is that it? |
32279 | Are n''t you back earlier than usual, mother? |
32279 | Are n''t you glad you''ve got ancestors? |
32279 | Are you better, mother? |
32279 | Are you happy, Jack, darling? |
32279 | Are you quite sure you''re comfortable, Jack? |
32279 | Are you sure it''s quite safe? |
32279 | Are you sure you were warm enough all the time? |
32279 | Are you very frightened, Jack, dear? |
32279 | Are you very rich yourself? |
32279 | Betty, dear, what do you mean? |
32279 | Betty,she said tenderly,"poor little Betty, what is it?" |
32279 | Betty,whispered Jack, when their mother had left the room, and the two children were alone together,"do you suppose we shall ever see Uncle Jack?" |
32279 | But if she had n''t wanted to know us she would n''t have taken us to drive, would she? |
32279 | But nothing is going to happen, is it, mother? |
32279 | But you''ll come back very soon, wo n''t you, Betty? |
32279 | Could n''t I go there some time? |
32279 | Could n''t we jump out and wade ashore? |
32279 | Did Uncle Jack love him too? |
32279 | Did you ever know any of his people, Charlie? |
32279 | Did you really? |
32279 | Did you say you drew pictures? |
32279 | Did your mother send you for me? |
32279 | Do n''t know him, eh; but your mother knows him, does n''t she? |
32279 | Do n''t lessons cost a good deal, sir? |
32279 | Do n''t you hate being poor, Jack? |
32279 | Do n''t you know what a great help you have been to Miss Clark and me? 32279 Do n''t you think mother might write to him some time?" |
32279 | Do n''t you think you could possibly read it to her after I go home? |
32279 | Do you a favor? |
32279 | Do you like being a lord? |
32279 | Do you mean to tell me that they are almost total strangers to you, and yet that you are willing to take all this trouble for them? |
32279 | Do you really think so? |
32279 | Do you suppose he is to be found on the beach this afternoon? |
32279 | Do you suppose they''ll go to England and live in a castle? |
32279 | Do you think she''s very ill? |
32279 | Do you think the doctor will make her well right away, Betty? |
32279 | Do you think you would like to live in the country? |
32279 | Do you want a cab? |
32279 | Does he know about it? |
32279 | Does it feel funny to be so very rich, Betty? |
32279 | Does n''t he ever go out? |
32279 | Good- evening,said the visitor, smiling pleasantly,"is your mother at home?" |
32279 | Good- morning, little Miss Winnie,he said pleasantly,"and what can I do for you to- day? |
32279 | Has your father been long dead, dear? |
32279 | Have you a particular objection to housekeepers, then? |
32279 | Have you been drifting long? 32279 Have you got any nephews now?" |
32279 | Have you never happened to see any of his sketches? |
32279 | Have you really? |
32279 | He was your twin brother, was n''t he, mother? |
32279 | How could I? |
32279 | How did you get in? 32279 How did your family happen to know him?" |
32279 | How much are they? |
32279 | How old are you? |
32279 | How old is he now? |
32279 | How very sad,said Winifred sympathetically;"how did it happen?" |
32279 | I am sure Betty would enjoy it,she said;"you would like to go, would n''t you, dear?" |
32279 | I do n''t suppose your aunt cares who writes the stories, so long as she gets them, does she, Lulu? |
32279 | I love them,said Jack heartily,"but, Betty, do you suppose mother would like it?" |
32279 | I should not imagine the view could have been very interesting,said Lord Carresford, smiling;"but how did it happen that you so seldom went out?" |
32279 | I think I have seen several in my life,said Mrs. Randall, smiling;"why do you want to know?" |
32279 | I wish I could see her,said Jack wistfully;"do you suppose she would come up here if you asked her?" |
32279 | I wonder why mother is so very particular? |
32279 | If we do will you ask us to stay at your castle? |
32279 | If you please, sir,interrupted Betty--"I mean, your lordship-- do you know whether our families have been very much worried about us?" |
32279 | Is Jack your little brother? |
32279 | Is n''t it perfectly lovely here? |
32279 | Is n''t it strange that we live in the same house and never spoke to each other before? |
32279 | Is n''t it the very loveliest surprise you ever had? |
32279 | Is she better? |
32279 | Is that you, Betty? |
32279 | Is there something the matter with your mother? |
32279 | Is this Miss Betty Randall? |
32279 | Is your lord uncle in England now, mother? |
32279 | Is your mother a teacher? |
32279 | Is your mother at home now? |
32279 | Is your sketch finished? |
32279 | It would be rather a pity to go so far without seeing the ocean, do n''t you think so? |
32279 | It''s really quite like a book thing; do n''t you think so? |
32279 | Jack,he said pleasantly, sitting down beside the little boy,"what would you like to be when you grow up?" |
32279 | Lords do n''t look any different from other people, do they, mother? |
32279 | Lulu writes beautifully, do n''t you think so, mother? |
32279 | May I look at it? 32279 Mrs. Hamilton,"she added rather shyly,"do you suppose Dr. Bell has forgotten Jack, now that he does n''t come to see mother any more?" |
32279 | Must we go right back to New York again? |
32279 | My story is n''t nearly as nice as yours,said Winifred modestly;"are you sure you really want me to read it?" |
32279 | No friends? |
32279 | No, indeed,said Lord Carresford,"I am sure Miss Warren would much prefer your reading to mine, but may I not be permitted to hear the stories too?" |
32279 | No, never; are they worth anything? |
32279 | Not at all a bad idea, and in the meantime wo n''t you make yourselves at home on board my yacht? 32279 Not at all; what is it?" |
32279 | Now,said the gentleman, rising,"do you think you can manage to climb this ladder? |
32279 | Oh, I said you were a very clever boy, and-- why, there''s the door bell; I wonder who it can be? |
32279 | Oh, Jack, what is it? |
32279 | Oh, Jack, you would n''t dare? |
32279 | Oh, Jack, you''re not going to be ill too, are you? |
32279 | Oh, Uncle Jack, I''m so very happy; I was just thinking how beautiful everything is, and I was wishing----"Well, what were you wishing? |
32279 | Oh, are we really going to see the ocean? |
32279 | Oh, do you really think they''ll save us? |
32279 | Oh, is n''t it fun? |
32279 | Oh, mother, what shall we do? |
32279 | Oh, mother,she added eagerly, as the door closed,"did you see? |
32279 | Oh, my little boy, were you very, very much frightened? |
32279 | Oh, no, it is n''t that, only I do n''t think-- Lord Carresford, would you mind telling me something? |
32279 | Oh, what shall we do-- what shall we do? |
32279 | Oh, yes, I am gaining strength every day,said Mrs. Randall with a sigh,"but, Mrs. Hamilton, how can I ever repay you for all you have done for us? |
32279 | Oh, yes, certainly; and the children, what of them? |
32279 | Ought n''t we ask some one first? |
32279 | Ought n''t you to have a doctor come to see you? |
32279 | Please, sir,he said tremulously,"would you mind telling us-- is mother going to be well again pretty soon?" |
32279 | Rather a big wish, is n''t it, my boy? 32279 Shall I begin now, Aunt Daisy?" |
32279 | Shall we go down on the beach and play? |
32279 | Talent for what? |
32279 | That''s where we live,said Winifred;"do you know what the little girl''s name is?" |
32279 | The lord? |
32279 | The scene now changes to a dirty, crowded city street----*****Do n''t you think that''s a nice expression, Aunt Daisy,''the scene now changes''? |
32279 | They are English, are they not? |
32279 | This is the top floor, is n''t it? |
32279 | To spend the night? |
32279 | Too bad, is n''t it? |
32279 | Was it really? |
32279 | Well, I am afraid not always,said Lord Carresford, laughing;"do n''t you think that you may need a share for yourself?" |
32279 | Well, Winnie,said the lady smiling, as they approached the counter,"have you decided which it is to be to- day, macaroons or chocolate éclairs?" |
32279 | Well, and when did you first begin to think of the Thank Offering? |
32279 | Well, but there is a park here, too, is n''t there? 32279 Well, do you think he would mind very much if I spent it all on giving somebody else a good time?" |
32279 | Well, if I behave nicely and am ladylike, wo n''t they think so any way? |
32279 | Well, is it all right? |
32279 | Well, miss, what can I do for you? |
32279 | Well, mother''s a lady, is n''t she? 32279 Well, my boy, and how have you been amusing yourself to- day?" |
32279 | Well, my pet, what is it? |
32279 | Well, young ladies,he said pleasantly,"and what have you been doing all the morning?" |
32279 | Well, young people, are you having a good time? |
32279 | Were the carriages all engaged for the day after to- morrow? 32279 What did you tell her?" |
32279 | What for? |
32279 | What have you been reading? |
32279 | What is it, Jack? |
32279 | What is your uncle''s name? |
32279 | What kind of things do you want to see, Jack? |
32279 | What made him come over to this country? |
32279 | What makes you look so-- so queer? 32279 What was the lord''s name, by the way?" |
32279 | What would you like to do? |
32279 | What''s that? |
32279 | What''s the matter, Lulu? 32279 Where does he live, mother?" |
32279 | Where does this river go to, Lulu? |
32279 | Where is he coming from? |
32279 | Where''s your mother''s park? |
32279 | Where, where? |
32279 | Who taught you to draw? |
32279 | Why are you so anxious on the subject? |
32279 | Why do n''t you take him for a drive sometimes? |
32279 | Why not? |
32279 | Why not? |
32279 | Why were you surprised? 32279 Why, Betty, how could I possibly do such a thing as that?" |
32279 | Why, do n''t you know? 32279 Why, do n''t you know?" |
32279 | Why? 32279 Why?" |
32279 | Will you please go just as soon as you can? |
32279 | Wo n''t it be lovely when Jack gets well? 32279 Wo n''t you come in?" |
32279 | Wo n''t you please be a little kind to Betty too? 32279 Wo n''t you sit down?" |
32279 | Would n''t it be nice if Winifred Hamilton came to see us this afternoon,Jack remarked rather irrelevantly;"I do like her very much, do n''t you?" |
32279 | Would n''t you like to come in and speak to her yourself? |
32279 | Would n''t you like to go to Navesink and make Lulu a visit? |
32279 | Would n''t you like to go to Navesink too? |
32279 | Yes, I did think so; and the little lame boy-- isn''t he a Hamilton either? |
32279 | Yes, do you want to see it? |
32279 | Yes, mother; do you think I might? 32279 Yes; how did you know I had a little brother?" |
32279 | You are fond of the sea, then? |
32279 | You did n''t hurt yourself, did you? |
32279 | You did n''t say so, did you? |
32279 | You did n''t take it, did you? |
32279 | You do n''t know where he lives in England, do you? |
32279 | You do n''t love Winifred better than me, do you? |
32279 | You go to school, do n''t you? |
32279 | You have n''t ever been away from your mother before, have you? |
32279 | You have n''t really, have you, mother? |
32279 | You mean that you would like to spend your five dollars in hiring a carriage to take that little cripple boy and his sister for a drive? |
32279 | You mean the thing about you-- oh, Jack, you mean about your being made to walk? |
32279 | You want to make money, eh? 32279 You would n''t mind so much if you could be a great artist and paint beautiful pictures, would you, Jack?" |
32279 | You''ll save us if you possibly can, wo n''t you? |
32279 | You''re not a single mite jealous, are you? |
32279 | ''The Indian''is a nice name, is n''t it? |
32279 | ''Where is that strange figure that you saw, Rosalie?'' |
32279 | *****"Do n''t you think it was rather poor taste in the lady and gentleman to be so elegantly dressed under the circumstances?" |
32279 | A lord is n''t a bit different from anybody else,"to which Jack replied,"No, only rather nicer than most people, do n''t you think so?" |
32279 | Are you going in, Miss Warren?" |
32279 | Are you going to the beach, Lulu?" |
32279 | Are you not feeling as well this morning?" |
32279 | Are you quite sure it''s all true, and not a dream?" |
32279 | Are you sure you can really get away for a whole day, father?" |
32279 | Bradford?" |
32279 | But I mean the kind of ladies who have lords for their relations-- do they ever work?" |
32279 | But if your little brother wants to go so very much, and if it''s his birthday, do n''t you think your mother might possibly let you have the money?" |
32279 | But look, is n''t that the very child you are talking about? |
32279 | By the way, how long is it that you have been laid up like this?" |
32279 | CHAPTER XIV JACK''S NEW FRIEND"May I inquire what you are thinking of so intently, Miss Lulu?" |
32279 | CHAPTER XV SOMETHING HAPPENS"Is it finished, Winifred?" |
32279 | Ca n''t you really come and make me a visit? |
32279 | Can you tell me which is Mrs. Randall''s apartment?" |
32279 | Did n''t you always expect to be one?" |
32279 | Did n''t you get it, after all?" |
32279 | Did n''t you say to- morrow would be the little boy''s birthday?" |
32279 | Did you ever go to Manhattan Beach, Uncle Will?" |
32279 | Did you ever live there?" |
32279 | Did you ever see any one who was very ill, Winifred?" |
32279 | Did you think she was Winifred''s sister?" |
32279 | Do n''t you feel very well, sir?" |
32279 | Do n''t you know anything about her family, Charlie?" |
32279 | Do n''t you like teas, Lord Carresford?" |
32279 | Do you enjoy teas yourself?" |
32279 | Do you suppose it looks like this at Navesink?" |
32279 | Do you think Jack would like to have me stay with him for a while? |
32279 | Do you think we shall all perish, sailor?" |
32279 | Do you think your friends will be very much frightened about you?" |
32279 | Do you want to come too, Jack?" |
32279 | Does Betty know about what we''re doing?" |
32279 | Have you ever heard your father speak of Lord Carresford?" |
32279 | Have you got a beautiful castle in England, like the one Fauntleroy had?" |
32279 | Have you got a park with deer in it?" |
32279 | How did she obtain her superior knowledge about lords?" |
32279 | How shall we let them know we want them to help us?" |
32279 | I come-- that is, I want-- oh, Dr. Bell, will you please do me a very great favor?" |
32279 | I never do play with dolls-- boys do n''t, you know, but a boy doll-- well, that seems a little different, does n''t it?" |
32279 | I should like to see him, should n''t you, Betty?" |
32279 | I suppose you would n''t care to go with us? |
32279 | I wish we had an uncle, do n''t you?" |
32279 | If anything had happened-- Jack, old fellow, how can I thank you?" |
32279 | If you ever could be made to walk, Jack, would n''t you be the very happiest boy in the whole world?" |
32279 | Is Jack all right?" |
32279 | Is n''t it lovely having mother so much better? |
32279 | Is n''t that where your friends, the Bells, are spending the summer?" |
32279 | Is that the reason why you hate to accept things from people, mother?" |
32279 | Is yours done yet, Winifred?" |
32279 | It could n''t be more than a dollar, do you think it could?" |
32279 | It seems so queer not to know a person who lives in the same house that you do, does n''t it?" |
32279 | It was with a very bright face, however, that the little girl came running back into the sitting room, in answer to Jack''s eager"What is it, Betty?" |
32279 | It''s very interesting to look at things, do n''t you think so?" |
32279 | Jack was so happy; how could she tell him that their cherished plan must be given up? |
32279 | May I go?" |
32279 | No more difficulties about drawing lessons, eh?" |
32279 | Oh, Betty, I do think birthdays are lovely things, do n''t you?" |
32279 | Oh, Betty, you did n''t really think I could, did you?" |
32279 | Oh, do n''t you believe they''re going to help us after all?" |
32279 | Oh, mother, dear, do you really think we could?" |
32279 | Oh, mother, dear, does n''t it all seem just like a fairy story that''s come true?" |
32279 | Oh, papa, dear, you wo n''t be angry, will you?" |
32279 | Oh, what shall we do-- what shall we do?" |
32279 | Oh, what shall we do?" |
32279 | Oh, what will become of us? |
32279 | Oh, what''s the matter? |
32279 | Please, sir, would you mind telling me if it''s very bad?" |
32279 | Randall?" |
32279 | See those two men? |
32279 | Shall I send these things, ma''am, or will you take them with you?" |
32279 | Shall I take you in to have a peep at her?" |
32279 | They never work, do they?" |
32279 | They never work, do they?" |
32279 | Too bad your little brother ca n''t get out these fine spring days, is n''t it?" |
32279 | Was n''t it kind of her to send them? |
32279 | Were you very much frightened?" |
32279 | What day is it?" |
32279 | What does it feel like to be jealous?" |
32279 | What if Dr. Bell were angry-- what if he refused to go? |
32279 | What is it?" |
32279 | What''s the matter, Jack-- are mosquitoes biting?" |
32279 | What''s the use of it now when we have to live in a flat, and mother has to give music lessons and do all the housework herself? |
32279 | When her father came in she asked,''How did you get rid of him, father?'' |
32279 | Where do you live, by the way?" |
32279 | Where''s mother?" |
32279 | Why do n''t you have a doctor come to see your mother?" |
32279 | Why do n''t you light the gas stove, Betty, and get her slippers nice and warm? |
32279 | Why do you want to know?" |
32279 | Why, my darling, what are you crying for? |
32279 | Why, what''s the matter-- is Jack ill?" |
32279 | Will you tell your mother that Mrs. Martin called? |
32279 | Wo n''t that be fun?" |
32279 | Wo n''t they be surprised when they see who is with us?" |
32279 | Would n''t you like to begin by being a brave little soldier boy now?" |
32279 | Would n''t you like to have me get you some water or something?" |
32279 | Would you like to have me ask him to come and see your mother?" |
32279 | Would you like to read some of them now?" |
32279 | Would you like to see it?" |
32279 | Would you mind coming to look at her, Winifred? |
32279 | Would you please tell me how much it would cost to hire a carriage to take us to Central Park?" |
32279 | You do like chocolate éclairs very much, do n''t you, Jack, dear?" |
32279 | You do n''t mind our going, do you?" |
32279 | You do n''t think, do you, that anything dreadful is going to happen?" |
32279 | You have never heard very much about your father, have you, darling?" |
32279 | You know the five- dollar gold- piece that Uncle Will gave me for Easter?" |
32279 | You know you are to leave this house the day after to- morrow; now where should you like best to go?" |
32279 | You never heard my mother play on the piano, did you?" |
32279 | You will be good to the children, and love them for my sake, wo n''t you, Jack?" |
32279 | You will stay with her till the nurse arrives?" |
32279 | You wo n''t forget my message, will you?" |
32279 | You wo n''t forget to write, Mollie?" |
32279 | You would like to do something to help your mother get well, would n''t you?" |
32279 | You would like to go, would n''t you, Jack, darling?" |
32279 | Your mother''s awake now, is n''t she, Betty? |
32279 | and may I ask what your name is?" |
32279 | and what will you do with the money when it is made?" |
32279 | he asked eagerly;"is it too far for any one to carry me?" |
32279 | he cried eagerly;"are we going to have the carriage? |
32279 | he repeated;"no aunts or cousins?" |
59967 | ''To meet again''--those are lovely words, Aunt Lizzie, are they not? |
59967 | A fairy tale? |
59967 | A flower? 59967 A picture of what?" |
59967 | A secret? |
59967 | A telegram? |
59967 | A telegram? |
59967 | A what? 59967 About me, Aunt Lizzie?" |
59967 | About what war? 59967 Ah, dost thou not know that this is heaven, and that thou hast wings?" |
59967 | And Fritz; will he be there? 59967 And I shall see thee again, father?" |
59967 | And Violet will have wings!--thou knowest that? |
59967 | And art thou going out to see the angels? |
59967 | And besides,the doctor added kindly,"what should we all do here in Edelsheim without our little Violet? |
59967 | And can thy father never bake any more bread, nor stand any more at the door in the evening and kiss hands up to me? |
59967 | And didst thou not always say thy prayers every morning and every night? |
59967 | And father? |
59967 | And hast thou been long alone, poor little maiden? |
59967 | And hast thou been sick always? |
59967 | And he gave her wings? |
59967 | And he is to go away to the war? |
59967 | And he will not even try? |
59967 | And is any one hurt? |
59967 | And is he dark, or fair? |
59967 | And is it well now, Evelina? |
59967 | And is thy father very sick? 59967 And must he always walk with crutches, always, always?" |
59967 | And no one was here to tell the good news? |
59967 | And that is thy mother''s hair? 59967 And the children, the little cousins at Gützberg,--will not they too be delighted?" |
59967 | And the children? |
59967 | And this is all true, is it not, Evelina? |
59967 | And thou wilt be there, dearest mother? |
59967 | And thou, Evelina, wilt thou not be an angel too? 59967 And thy father-- what is he like?" |
59967 | And thy mother,--canst thou remember her? |
59967 | And thy mother-- was she dark also? |
59967 | And wert thou ever in a battle, father? |
59967 | And what did she say? |
59967 | And what does he put into them? |
59967 | And who is this little cherub with the red cheeks? 59967 And who was she? |
59967 | And why is the whole town up early-- why, Evelina? |
59967 | And will it be a long way off, down a far, far street? |
59967 | And will it be soon? |
59967 | Art thou searching for a wood- fairy amongst the leaves? |
59967 | Art thou sick? |
59967 | Aunt Lizzie will be glad when father comes home; will she not, Evelina? |
59967 | Aunt Lizzie, is it father? 59967 Aunt Lizzie, is it the drum? |
59967 | Aunt Lizzie, what is Fritz shouting about over there at the window? 59967 Aunt Lizzie, wilt thou do one more thing for Violet?" |
59967 | Aunt Lizzie? |
59967 | Beautiful, shining, silver wings; and no more hump and no more pain? |
59967 | Before the winter? |
59967 | Bones? |
59967 | But Fritz''s father can not be sent to the war; he is not a soldier, father? |
59967 | But are any of them sick-- sick, I mean, like me? |
59967 | But are they true? |
59967 | But dost thou see it, father? |
59967 | But has he any children, Fritz? |
59967 | But he does not want thee; he has not sent for thee? |
59967 | But in thine arms, Evelina; couldst thou not take me such a little way in thine arms? |
59967 | But thou rememberest the little sick girl in the book, dost thou not, Evelina? |
59967 | But thou wouldst like it, wouldst thou not? |
59967 | But we were not talking nonsense, were we, father? 59967 But what is it? |
59967 | But what would they say? |
59967 | But where is she? 59967 But where-- where? |
59967 | Can she, will she live, do you think, until he returns? |
59967 | Certainly; what is it? |
59967 | Come along, let''s have some fun.--May we take down all those old beasts overhead and have a game with them?--may we, Violet? 59967 Could not I go with the other little angels?" |
59967 | Couldst not thou dress me, father? |
59967 | Couldst not thou hold my hand on the pencil and show me how? |
59967 | Couldst thou not go across and see if she will soon be here? 59967 Darling, what is it?" |
59967 | Did any one ever hear of such an idea? |
59967 | Did the good Lord Jesus call my little mother away? |
59967 | Didst thou not hear them, Evelina? 59967 Didst thou see any violets there?" |
59967 | Does she sleep? 59967 Dost thou know what Kate said to Violet once?" |
59967 | Dost thou mean Evelina? |
59967 | Dost thou mean what is in thy hump-- this thing? |
59967 | Dost thou not see in the picture there, low down on the page, where it is written,''No more tears''? 59967 Dost thou see my face, father?" |
59967 | Ella did not make thee cry, Violet, did she? 59967 Ella, thou great goose, thou stupid little child, what art thou saying? |
59967 | Evelina, what was that dreadful noise? |
59967 | Evelina, where art thou? |
59967 | Fairy tales? 59967 Father will not forget his Violet; for thou seest I am his little Violet-- am I not, Aunt Lizzie? |
59967 | Father will write to Violet? |
59967 | Father, is it thou? 59967 Fritz asked was that why they called thee Violet, because thou also hast a hump? |
59967 | Fritz, what didst thou say? 59967 Fritz,"she said one evening suddenly, as he and she sat alone in the deep window- seat,"Fritz, tell me this one thing: dost thou love Evelina?" |
59967 | From the street? |
59967 | Go on,said Violet anxiously;"what more did Fritz say?" |
59967 | Good- evening,said the doctor as they met presently face to face;"how goes it with thee, William? |
59967 | Has she spoken at all to- day of her father? |
59967 | Has the king seen thee, father? |
59967 | Hast thou heard the news, Violet? |
59967 | Hast thou heard, Violet? |
59967 | He is not dead? |
59967 | Hist,he cried, leaning down and trying to catch the attention of some one immediately beneath the window,"what has happened?" |
59967 | How does he know about her? |
59967 | How dost thou know? |
59967 | How goes it with the little girl upstairs? |
59967 | How is that?--neither hat nor coat? |
59967 | How is this?--quite alone, little one? |
59967 | How long has she slept like this? |
59967 | How much do I owe thee for them? |
59967 | How soon? |
59967 | I fancied I had heard her crying this morning very early; was it not so? |
59967 | I may see Ella to- morrow, may I not? |
59967 | I suppose,replied Evelina with a short laugh,"any one who does not know thy father must be a blockhead, eh?" |
59967 | If-- if, dearest Lizzie, it should please God that I should not return-- what then? 59967 In my arms, dear love? |
59967 | In the basket? |
59967 | In what book? |
59967 | Is Fritz at the window? |
59967 | Is Fritz''s father safe? |
59967 | Is Madam Adler coming? |
59967 | Is it all over? |
59967 | Is it little Violet who has sent thee for them? |
59967 | Is it night? |
59967 | Is there not something inside of every poor hunchback''s hump? |
59967 | Is what true? |
59967 | It was not a fairy tale? |
59967 | It will not be for_ very_ long, will it? |
59967 | John, where is my darling? 59967 Kate, Kate, where art thou going?" |
59967 | Kate, Kate, where is father? |
59967 | Kate,she said presently, in a low, coaxing voice,"couldst thou not carry me in thy arms in there? |
59967 | Little goose,replied the girl, turning away her head suddenly from the sight of those pleading eyes;"how can I tell thee? |
59967 | Mother, dear, why dost thou want me in the night? |
59967 | Mother, what did he say I was? 59967 My father is not gone to heaven too?" |
59967 | My father is not in the Reserve? |
59967 | My father? 59967 My father?" |
59967 | My little life, my heart''s blood, what ails thee? 59967 No, my child; what was it?" |
59967 | No, no-- in a minute thou shalt see it; but first thou wilt tell me one thing, wilt thou not, Fritz? 59967 Not about the war?" |
59967 | Not to stay-- not to sleep? 59967 Of whom art thou speaking, darling?" |
59967 | Oh, how can I tell? 59967 Oh, wilt thou?" |
59967 | Or Ella? |
59967 | Poor child, why does she ask me such questions? |
59967 | Seest thou? 59967 Selling fish?" |
59967 | She is happy? |
59967 | Sick like thee? |
59967 | So many friends,she said softly; then added almost in a whisper,"and also, Aunt Lizzie, the Lord Jesus; he is my friend too, is he not?" |
59967 | So thou art thinking already of sending me back to Gützberg? |
59967 | That God gives the little hunchbacks these humps? |
59967 | The basket- bell? 59967 The children at Gützberg would not dare to speak to me like that; they have better manners.--Wilt thou have thy dinner now?" |
59967 | Then thou_ wilt_ take me? 59967 There, darling,"she cried, placing it on Violet''s head,"is not that lovely? |
59967 | They love me? |
59967 | Thinking of what? |
59967 | Thou art certain? |
59967 | Thou art sure, dear heart? |
59967 | Thou dost not know? |
59967 | Thou hast not been very long by thyself, hast thou, my sweet one? |
59967 | Thou thinkest so, my treasure? |
59967 | To die? |
59967 | Violet can not go down to the station and see her father off to the war, can she, Aunt Lizzie? |
59967 | Violet can see so much better all up and down the street, and thou canst put thy arms round me, and hold me so tightly;--is it not so, Kate? |
59967 | Violet, hast thou heard the news? 59967 Violets have got humps on their backs; and thou-- thou-- art a violet too, and thou hast a hump on thy back; and is not that funny?" |
59967 | Was she a little hunchback like me? |
59967 | Was she what? 59967 We must not quite cover up thy face for all that, my angel,"she added laughing,"or what would the old policeman say?" |
59967 | Well, Violet, what art thou thinking of, with thy great big eyes so wide open? |
59967 | Well, and what didst thou say? |
59967 | Well, and what is it, Fritz? 59967 Well, and what then?" |
59967 | Well, darling, hast thou been long awake? |
59967 | Well, now that father is returned, dost thou know-- canst thou guess what he has been about all the afternoon? |
59967 | Well, well, what does it signify? 59967 Well, well?" |
59967 | Well, what is it? 59967 Were there any poor little hunchbacks at the station at Edelsheim?" |
59967 | What about the wings? |
59967 | What about? |
59967 | What ails my treasure? |
59967 | What ails sweet mother? |
59967 | What are they all crying for in the street below? |
59967 | What art thou doing, Ella? |
59967 | What book? |
59967 | What do you wonder about? 59967 What does Fritz say?" |
59967 | What does it matter what we are like here? 59967 What does it matter?" |
59967 | What does it say? |
59967 | What good news? |
59967 | What hast thou been doing all this morning, Ella? |
59967 | What hast thou been reading? |
59967 | What is it, my little girlie? |
59967 | What is it, then? |
59967 | What is it? 59967 What is it? |
59967 | What is it? 59967 What is it?" |
59967 | What is it? |
59967 | What is that? |
59967 | What is that? |
59967 | What is the Reserve? |
59967 | What is the boy doing up there? |
59967 | What is this? |
59967 | What little girl? |
59967 | What paper? |
59967 | What rod? |
59967 | What secret? |
59967 | What thing, Fritz? |
59967 | What town? |
59967 | What troubles thee? 59967 What were they crying about?" |
59967 | What will not be for long? |
59967 | What would they say, Evelina? |
59967 | What? 59967 What? |
59967 | What? |
59967 | What? |
59967 | What? |
59967 | What? |
59967 | When the lambs are very tired, and can not walk any more, the Lord Jesus lifts them in his arms and carries them, does he not? |
59967 | When? 59967 When?" |
59967 | Where did Aunt Lizzie see so many tears? |
59967 | Where is dear mother, and why does she want me in the night? |
59967 | Where is father? |
59967 | Where is mother, dear father? 59967 Where is mother?" |
59967 | Where is thy maid? |
59967 | Where shall I put this Bible, darling? |
59967 | Where? |
59967 | Who gave thee the book, Violet? |
59967 | Who gave thee this new book, and what story hast thou been troubling thy poor head with? |
59967 | Who is the child? |
59967 | Who told her of it? |
59967 | Whom? |
59967 | Why am not I like other children? |
59967 | Why can not you write it for her, eh? |
59967 | Why did they take her away? |
59967 | Why not? 59967 Why some other day? |
59967 | Why, Fritz, did she say that? |
59967 | Why, dear Fritz? |
59967 | Why, father? |
59967 | Why? 59967 Why?" |
59967 | Why? |
59967 | Will Evelina soon be here? |
59967 | Will father say''Good- bye''to Violet? |
59967 | Will she know I am there? 59967 Wilt thou not carry Violet across to her chair?" |
59967 | Wilt thou not, Evelina? |
59967 | Yes, certainly; why not? 59967 Yes, here is Fritz; what is it, dear Violet?" |
59967 | Yes, my own Violet; what is it? |
59967 | Yes, thou and Fritz,she echoed softly;"and then I can go down the hill and see the place where mother is asleep; can not I, father?" |
59967 | Yes, yes; why not? 59967 Yes?" |
59967 | You are very kind to our Violet? |
59967 | Ah, is that it? |
59967 | Ah, seest thou not now Violet has wings?" |
59967 | And dost thou know what Fritz said? |
59967 | And he has known thee all thy life?" |
59967 | And if he does, I must go; must I not, Violet? |
59967 | And now thou wilt not be an ungrateful little girl, when Evelina has done all this for thee? |
59967 | And now thou wilt say''Good- night,''wilt thou not? |
59967 | And shall I see glow- worms, too, and those little mice which have wings?" |
59967 | And the Lord Jesus answered her, in a low, sweet voice,"Dost thou not know this is the little Violet from Edelsheim? |
59967 | And we shall have such fun; shall we not, thou little heart''s love? |
59967 | And who is the friend who has given our little Violet this beautiful present?" |
59967 | And-- and-- who is that sitting in the window beside thee?" |
59967 | As she did so, Violet looked up and said, rather wearily,--"Aunt Lizzie, canst thou help me?" |
59967 | At last she said, with a weak and somewhat complaining voice,"Evelina, why art thou making the room ready so early? |
59967 | Aunt Lizzie shook her head at this history; and Violet said in a very low voice,--"O Fritz, is not Ella joking?" |
59967 | But at the door he paused, and looking at Aunt Lizzie he asked, with an eye which for the moment burned with a suppressed anger,"Where is the girl?" |
59967 | But oh, there is such a lovely story in her book, Fritz, and I want so much to ask of thee,''Is it true?''" |
59967 | But was it, after all, so terrible that the women should faint, and the angels hide their faces in their hands? |
59967 | But what harm? |
59967 | But what is the use of talking? |
59967 | But who is to open this telegram and tell us what is in it?" |
59967 | Canst thou not answer me, Kate? |
59967 | Canst thou not tell me where is my little mother gone?" |
59967 | Did not he, Aunt Lizzie?" |
59967 | Dost thou think thou art an angel already?" |
59967 | Eh, little heart''s darling, what sayest thou?" |
59967 | Eh, my darling?" |
59967 | For was not she herself called Violet? |
59967 | For why had her mother called her in the middle of the night and said good- bye to her? |
59967 | Had the good doctor been to pay her a visit; was the canary well; did the poor back ache much? |
59967 | Has she spoken at all since morning?" |
59967 | Hast thou no sense, Master Fritz, but to go and ring bells in people''s ears when they are asleep? |
59967 | Hast thou not seen him? |
59967 | Hast thou seen the doctor?" |
59967 | He will cry out,''Where is my own little Violet?'' |
59967 | Her hands were just like claws, and-- but what is the matter with thee? |
59967 | How can I tell? |
59967 | I am afraid father is a poor old stupid, is he not?" |
59967 | I am not so heavy as Ella, am I, father?" |
59967 | I am what?" |
59967 | I could almost die of laughter.--But what is the matter with the child? |
59967 | I have but one or two nails to put in this hood, and then thy carriage will be finished; that is good, is it not?" |
59967 | I met him just at the corner by the flower- shop, and told him all about that promised drive to the hill this afternoon; and what dost thou think? |
59967 | I suppose thou art too grand to wear one of my hats?" |
59967 | I think now we may let her cry a little; is it not so, sir?" |
59967 | I will try to love thee better every day.--And all the poor sick hunchbacks have wings, have they not; and I, too, I shall have wings?" |
59967 | Is it not so, Evelina?" |
59967 | Is it not so, Evelina?" |
59967 | Is it not so, John? |
59967 | Is it not so, Violet?" |
59967 | Is it not so, my loved one?" |
59967 | Is it not so? |
59967 | Is it not true, mother?" |
59967 | Is mother gone out too? |
59967 | Is not Evelina good to thee?" |
59967 | Is not that lovely, Aunt Lizzie?" |
59967 | Is not that lovely?" |
59967 | Is not that lovely?" |
59967 | Is not this what thou meanest, dearest child?" |
59967 | Is she in the next room?" |
59967 | Is she too far up, father?" |
59967 | Is there anything more I can do for thee? |
59967 | It is at least likely; but wherefore, darling child, dost thou ask Aunt Lizzie this question?" |
59967 | It is quite true about the carriage, is it not? |
59967 | It was Noah of course-- only, what does it matter? |
59967 | Kate, canst thou not see them too?" |
59967 | Let me see now;--where is thy hat? |
59967 | May Aunt Lizzie come in?" |
59967 | May I have it?" |
59967 | Mother must say adieu to her poor sick girlie; but father will love thee, oh, so well.--Is it not so, beloved? |
59967 | My father, where is he? |
59967 | Now where are the violets?" |
59967 | O Evelina, can not I go in the carriage as Ella often goes in Fritz''s wooden cart? |
59967 | She has come all the way from Gützberg to take care of thee; is it not so, my treasure?" |
59967 | She hesitated a moment, then seeing Violet''s eyes open she asked her softly,--"Am I to open it, darling? |
59967 | So Ella and I laughed, for she would have a long way to run to tell her father-- would she not, Violet?" |
59967 | The doctor gazed out of the window for a moment, and then turning to her he said quickly,--"You are very good to the child-- careful, gentle, patient? |
59967 | Then suddenly raising her voice till it sounded quite shrilly through the house, she cried out,"Mother, mother, may I not go into thy room? |
59967 | Then turning her head suddenly, she said quickly,"Fritz, dost thou hear what the doctor says? |
59967 | There was a short pause, and then Violet said earnestly,--"Aunt Lizzie, wilt thou go to the shop and buy me some violets? |
59967 | They will look up and they will say,''Where is little Violet?'' |
59967 | Thou art one of God''s own little children, and is not that the best thing of all?" |
59967 | Thou rememberest all this, Evelina?" |
59967 | Thou rememberest, dost thou not? |
59967 | Thou wilt be brave, sweetest child, for his sake, wilt thou not? |
59967 | Thou wilt not say good- bye to- night?" |
59967 | Was ever anything so funny?" |
59967 | Was it not, Violet?" |
59967 | Was not that good of her?" |
59967 | Was she, after all, so unlike an angel, this"fat Miss Ella,"at whose appearance Evelina could not restrain her laughter? |
59967 | What ails thee, my sweetest treasure?" |
59967 | What ails thee? |
59967 | What art thou crying for, Violet?" |
59967 | What art thou doing?" |
59967 | What do you want to know? |
59967 | What does that mean, mother?" |
59967 | What dost thou see, father?" |
59967 | What is it, my little darling?" |
59967 | What is to become of my poor child?" |
59967 | What makes thee cry? |
59967 | What troubles thee? |
59967 | What wouldst thou have had me to do?" |
59967 | When will father be here?" |
59967 | Where was she going? |
59967 | Who gave it thee?" |
59967 | Whose hat is it?" |
59967 | Whose turn will it be next?" |
59967 | Why dost thou call for him so? |
59967 | Why is it a secret, and why should Ella not tell me?" |
59967 | Will he not, mother?" |
59967 | Will no one come to Violet?" |
59967 | ah, well; but is not this the time for his school?" |
59967 | all alone?" |
59967 | and are they only fireworks?" |
59967 | and is not his father also going away to the war?" |
59967 | and is that the reason why I sit in this chair and can not walk?" |
59967 | and what did she know of that peace which the doctor said passed all understanding? |
59967 | and what is in it that it pains me so?" |
59967 | and why did his mother slap him? |
59967 | but are fairy tales never true?" |
59967 | can she eat? |
59967 | canst thou not also give wings to Violet? |
59967 | canst thou not hear me, mother? |
59967 | cried Evelina, putting her arms suddenly round Violet''s neck and kissing her;"why art thou in such a hurry to leave us all? |
59967 | cried Violet eagerly;"why, didst thou see him?" |
59967 | cried her aunt excitedly, who had been standing all this time by the bedside with her eyes full of tears;"is it possible?" |
59967 | cried the old woman distractedly--"is the child dead?--tell me now at once, is our Violet dead?" |
59967 | echoed Violet in a tone of such concentrated interest that Evelina looked up startled and astonished;"when shall I have wings?" |
59967 | for me?" |
59967 | gasped Violet, still keeping her face pressed in close to the old man''s heart;"and thou art sure that they are only fireworks?" |
59967 | how couldst thou frighten her so?" |
59967 | is it not lovely?" |
59967 | is she also a friend?" |
59967 | is she heart- broken?" |
59967 | it is not a fairy tale, father?" |
59967 | or hast thou perhaps found out the name of the little mother?" |
59967 | or shall I give it to thee?" |
59967 | said Violet, opening her eyes suddenly and looking up;"is that true? |
59967 | said Violet, with a sound of such unmistakable dismay in her voice that Fritz looked up surprised;"thou dost not care for Bible stories, Fritz?" |
59967 | said the doctor, turning his eyes slowly away from her and looking at the sealed package on the table close to him;"what have we here? |
59967 | said the doctor;"and there was no name?" |
59967 | screamed Violet passionately;"he is not coming to call my father to the war? |
59967 | she asked curiously;"and why has Fritz not been at school? |
59967 | the splendid Leghorn with the blue silk ribbons? |
59967 | thou shouldst have heard all he said, and the names he called me; because why? |
59967 | thou wilt not even look at it?" |
59967 | what does the child say?" |
59967 | what is it, my poor little girlie?" |
59967 | what is that, and where is it?" |
59967 | what was her name?" |
59967 | what was that other sound without? |
59967 | what?" |
59967 | where art thou? |
59967 | where art thou?" |
59967 | where?" |
59967 | where?" |
59967 | who ever heard of such a thing?" |
59967 | who is that?" |
59967 | who listens to such a chattering magpie?" |
59967 | why art thou crying? |
59967 | why didst thou call so?" |
59967 | why dost thou not answer?" |
59967 | why not now?" |
59967 | will Violet soon have wings?" |
59967 | will he come home soon?" |

20071 | Father John,said Ronald--"who is he?" |

20071 | I do n''t want you to worry yourself, dear; but can you recall anybody ever calling to see your mother-- anybody who might be a relation of yours? |
20071 | I dunno; only Big Ben----"Giles dear, wot_ do_ yer mean? |

20071 | Is''e wery bad? |
20071 | It is certainly against the rules, but-- will you stay here for a few minutes and I''ll speak to the ward superintendent? |
20071 | It''s a beautiful verse, is n''t it, Connie? |
20071 | Little Ronald''s a real gent--_''e''s_ the son of a hofficer in''Is Majesty''s harmy, an''the hofficer''s name is Major Harvey, V. C."What? |

20071 | May I take Connie along, please, sir? |
20071 | May n''t I speak, sir? |
20071 | Mother,interrupted Sue,"does yer think as Providence''ull get me constant work at the sewing, enough to keep Giles and me?" |
20071 | Mr. Harris,said Sue, all of a sudden,"you were cruel to Connie last night; but w''en she comes back again you''ll be different, wo n''t yer?" |
20071 | Must I''ave a new name too? |
20071 | My father guv you your breakfast? |

20071 | No news of his sister, I suppose? |
20071 | No one has paid her, dear? |
20071 | No talk o''dark rooms and nasty nightmares and cruel old women? 20071 No, madam?" |
20071 | Not there? 20071 Now must I give her a blow, or must I not?" |
20071 | Now, Cinderella,he began,"you say as ye''re hinnercent o''that''ere theft?" |

20071 | Now, ai n''t I good? |
20071 | Now, what hever do yer mean by that? |
20071 | Now,said the widow,"what can I do for you?" |
20071 | Of course, there is little doubt that Major Harvey is dead; but you could call at the War Office and inquire, mother, could n''t you? |
20071 | Oh Giles-- wot? |
20071 | Oh, have you got a mother? |
20071 | Oh, how so, Connie? |

20071 | ''ow is Giles?" |
20071 | 12 Carlyle Terrace? |
20071 | A boy with two fathers need n''t feel starved about the heart, need he, now?" |
20071 | Agnes, now, can go and tell yer father, and bring wot clothes yer want to- morrow.--Agnes, yer''ll do that, wo n''t yer?" |
20071 | Ai n''t it natural that Mrs. Warren should want yer to stay now she ha''got yer? |
20071 | Ai n''t it now?" |
20071 | Ai n''t yer hin luck not to be in prison, and ai n''t that a subject for rejoicing? |
20071 | All those things quite forgot?" |
20071 | An''did yer never read that most touching story of the consumptive gel called the''May Queen''? |
20071 | And am I to have naught but grumbles for my pains? |
20071 | And does she find it wery beautiful?" |
20071 | And ef poor, ugly Mammy Warren''ave made herself still uglier for yer sweet sakes,''oo can but love''er for the ennoblin''deed? |
20071 | And may I ax how old you are, my love?" |
20071 | And now, do n''t you feel very anxious about your father and your old friends?" |
20071 | And she come''ere-- and I turned her off? |
20071 | And what amount of money ought I to give you for the woman?" |
20071 | And when''ull she be back?" |
20071 | And where are the stones? |
20071 | And would Father John look for her? |
20071 | And would her own people ever find her? |
20071 | And you would n''t like to give her a kiss fur me?" |
20071 | And''oo''s he?" |
20071 | And''ow''s Giles?" |
20071 | Are you taking me to him?" |
20071 | Are you? |
20071 | As soon as she entered the room he said one word to her--"When?" |
20071 | Be yer fond o''poetry yerself, Agnes?" |
20071 | But I ca n''t remember where the country is-- can you, Connie?" |
20071 | But about Sue? |
20071 | But do you want me to help you?" |
20071 | But now, ca n''t yer guess where she his?" |
20071 | But now, wot do you think of it all?" |
20071 | But where be she? |
20071 | But''ave yer nothing else to say''bout her?" |
20071 | C.?" |
20071 | Ca n''t you take me back to him now-- can''t you?" |
20071 | Can I help you?" |
20071 | Connie was the name of one----""Connie?" |
20071 | Connie, wull yer sing to me?" |
20071 | Could she not get out of that house and go back to Sue and Giles? |
20071 | Cricket?" |
20071 | Dare you?" |
20071 | Did Connie tell you about that?" |
20071 | Did yer never see the country?" |
20071 | Do n''t I work for yer, and toil for yer? |
20071 | Do n''t yer s''pose as yer''ll be advertised?" |
20071 | Do n''t yer think as it''ull break_ his_ heart ef yer is tuk ter prison? |
20071 | Do n''t you believe it?" |
20071 | Do yer mind?" |
20071 | Do you know anything about her?" |
20071 | Do you know why?" |
20071 | Do you promise?" |
20071 | Do you think I''d allow yer to spile yer purty face with the fire beatin''on it? |
20071 | Do you think, Connie, that Mammy Warren could have invented that story about him?" |
20071 | Dressed shabby, no doubt, and wid hard- hearted sisters-- but had n''t she small feet, now? |
20071 | Ere we to betray the hinnercent?" |
20071 | Father did worse things than that-- why should I be afraid?" |
20071 | First, tell me, how is the little lame chap as is fretting fur his sister wot is kept in the country?" |
20071 | Ha''n''t I jest rescued yer from the hands o''that''ere nipper?" |
20071 | Ha''n''t she, stoo- pid?" |
20071 | Had anything happened? |
20071 | Hanythink else?" |
20071 | Harris?" |
20071 | Have you been in a fire?" |
20071 | Have you brought news of Ronald? |
20071 | Have you ever considered what a truly fascinating thing a girl''s hand is?" |
20071 | He''ll be a nice companion for yer, Connie, and yer''ll like that, wo n''t you?" |
20071 | Her father and I are in great trouble about the child----""What child?" |
20071 | How do you do?" |
20071 | How do you s''pose, mother, as the locket did get inter Cinderella''s pocket?" |
20071 | How long? |
20071 | I ca n''t go back, can I, Giles-- can I?" |
20071 | I know all about it: Yer''ll stop that-- d''yer''ear-- d''yer''ear?" |
20071 | I s''pose, as the disguise is ter change me, will it make me beautiful? |
20071 | I think w''en they''re full- grown----""Wot then?" |
20071 | I was not a bit frightened at first, of course, for my father''s boy must n''t be a coward, must he, Connie?" |
20071 | I''d manage so to terrify him aforehand that he''d have ter confess----""And then he''d be put in prison?" |
20071 | I''m going away to a much better place, ai n''t I, Connie?" |
20071 | In his case, that is the best sort of illness, is it not? |
20071 | Is he wery cut up?" |
20071 | Is it in love you be-- an''you not fourteen years of age? |
20071 | Is that other little party alive or dead? |
20071 | Is that what she''s staying fur?" |
20071 | Is the furnace in proper order?" |
20071 | Is there a neighbor who would sit with him?" |
20071 | Is your story quite true, little girl?" |
20071 | It has been a long time-- wery, wery long-- but have I been patient''bout Sue all this long time, Connie?" |
20071 | It said in cheerful tones:"Why have n''t you fire here, and a candle? |
20071 | It''s a little bit hard to be very patient, is n''t it, Connie?" |
20071 | It''s a''most like''eaven to think of the country-- ain''t it, Connie?" |
20071 | Machine- work-- attic work?--Shop?" |
20071 | May I come?" |
20071 | Mr. Harris, wot does yer think? |
20071 | Never neglect a friend-- eh? |
20071 | Not to''ome?" |
20071 | Now speak the truth, full and solemn; be yer hinnercent?" |
20071 | Now then, look spruce, wo n''t yer?" |
20071 | Now then-- yer ai n''t frightened, be yer?" |
20071 | Now, Cinderella, wot kind o''man wor that''ere Peter Harris wot went wid yer to the shop?" |
20071 | Now, Pickles, my boy, wot have you got in the back o''your''ead? |
20071 | Now, do you want to have a shelter for yourself and your little brother to- night?'' |
20071 | Now, w''en a stranger seeks yer hout, is n''t it safe to s''pose as he brings news?" |
20071 | Now, will you speak? |
20071 | Now, wot''s yer favorite character? |
20071 | Now-- do yer promise?" |
20071 | Oh, could the awful moment ever come when Giles would look at him with reproachful eyes-- when Giles would turn away from him? |
20071 | Oh, sir, will you, jest because mother did trusten so werry much?" |
20071 | On their way Connie turned innocently to her companion and said:"Why ever did yer say as we lived in Portland Mansions?" |
20071 | One word has been changed from the original to correctly identify the speaker, Agnes, replying to Connie''s question: p. 27 original:"Wot sort?" |
20071 | Or do yer want somethin''better? |
20071 | Please, Father John,_ you_ wo n''t ask me?" |
20071 | Please, please, Pickles, where is she?" |
20071 | Shall I take yer''ome first, or wull yer come with me?" |
20071 | Shall I tell you other things that father did?" |
20071 | Shall I?" |
20071 | Shall us both come in?" |
20071 | She put her hand on my shoulder and said,''Wotever are you doing here?'' |
20071 | She went to the door and, before opening it, called out,"Who''s there?" |
20071 | She worn''t a wandering sort o''gel, as neglected her home duties, wor she?" |
20071 | She would n''t''ave tuk all her things ef she meant to come; would she, Ronald?" |
20071 | She''s not a real kind person, is she, Connie?" |
20071 | So late?" |
20071 | Suddenly, however, he winked, and said in a shrill, cheerful tone:"Well, then, plucky''un,''ow does yer find yerself now?" |
20071 | Sue, did you never consider that maybe ef we''re good and patient Lord Christ''ull take us to''eaven any day?" |
20071 | That was''ow I pulled''i m round.--Wasn''t it, Ronald, my dear?" |
20071 | Them be thieves, bean''t they?" |
20071 | There now,''oo''s that a- knockin''at the door?" |
20071 | There, now-- ain''t that fine?" |
20071 | This child is n''t for us; let her alone in future.--Are you ready, Connie?" |
20071 | WHAT WAS HARRIS TO HER? |
20071 | WHAT WAS HARRIS TO HER? |
20071 | Warren''s?" |
20071 | Warren?" |
20071 | Warren?" |
20071 | Warren?" |
20071 | Warren?" |
20071 | Was any one within? |
20071 | Was he drunk? |
20071 | Was it more than a coincidence? |
20071 | Was it the roar of human voices or the roar of something else-- a devouring and awful element? |
20071 | Was she late? |
20071 | Was this another and a rougher way of taking her to the lock- up? |
20071 | Was this queer boy friend or foe? |
20071 | Was this the man she was to be so dreadfully afraid of? |
20071 | Welcome my lass home? |
20071 | Well now, madam, will you see to this? |
20071 | What did the girl mean? |
20071 | What new and dreadful departure was this? |
20071 | What was it? |
20071 | What was the matter? |
20071 | What was the matter? |
20071 | What was this cowardly Harris to her that she should risk so much and suffer so sorely for his sake? |
20071 | What was to be done? |
20071 | What was wrong with pretty Connie, and why did she not go with her? |
20071 | What would she not give to hear his magnificent voice as he preached to the people once again? |
20071 | What would yer mother s''y ef she knew?" |
20071 | What_ did_ Cinderella mean? |
20071 | What_ has_ happened, Connie-- what_ has_ happened?" |
20071 | Where are yer to go to? |
20071 | Where be she? |
20071 | Where could she be? |
20071 | Where in all the world could she be? |
20071 | Where is she? |
20071 | Where was she? |
20071 | Where''ud she be likely ter be? |
20071 | Where? |
20071 | Wherever is my little gel?" |
20071 | Who are you running away from?" |
20071 | Who could tell if his father himself might not have returned, and might not be there, and might not hear him if he sang loud enough and sweet enough? |
20071 | Who, I''d like to know,''ud employ a prison lass-- and what else''ud you be?" |
20071 | Why be you so chuff to poor Sue, and whatever''ave you got to say?" |
20071 | Why did that boy speak like that? |
20071 | Why did yer say so?" |
20071 | Why did you run away?" |
20071 | Why should n''t it be for you? |
20071 | Why was she absent? |
20071 | Why, Connie, ca n''t you guess that we''ve been praying for you?" |
20071 | Why, oh why did not his father come to fetch him? |
20071 | Why, to mother, of course-- where else?" |
20071 | Why? |
20071 | Will it cost you so much money to keep yourself and Giles in that little attic?" |
20071 | Will yer take a message back to Sue?" |
20071 | Will you come in, and I''ll fetch him?" |
20071 | Will you come?" |
20071 | Will you wash first and have a bit of breakfast, or shall I tell you now?" |
20071 | Will you write the note, Connie?" |
20071 | Worn''t Cinderella wot might''ave bin called beautiful? |
20071 | Wot be Giles to me?" |
20071 | Wot could be wrong? |
20071 | Wot did yer do with her, Father John?" |
20071 | Wot do yer take me fur? |
20071 | Wot do yer think I come''ere for so often but jest to comfort the poor thing an''bring her news o''Giles? |
20071 | Wot do yer think Mammy Warren wanted yer for?" |
20071 | Wot''s to be done? |
20071 | Wot''s up? |
20071 | Wotever''s the hour? |
20071 | Wotever''s the matter with yer, Connie?" |
20071 | Wottever is to be done, father?" |
20071 | Wottever is to be done? |
20071 | Wottever''ud take her to the country at this time o''year?" |
20071 | Would Sue be satisfied that Connie was not quite lost? |
20071 | Would any one in all the world think of the little machinist if she sallied forth in purple silk and Paisley shawl? |
20071 | Would he again turn her out into the street? |
20071 | Would he give her up for ever? |
20071 | Would n''t I jest jump at gettin''into your shoes if I could? |
20071 | Would not her own father search heaven and earth to find his only child? |
20071 | Would that long day ever come to an end? |
20071 | Would you like to see her again?" |
20071 | Wull yer do that, Agnes-- wull yer, now?" |
20071 | Yer do n''t think as yer father''ll be''ome to- night, Connie?" |
20071 | Yer want to know who''s_ he_? |
20071 | Yes, she knows all, Sue does; but, Mr. Harris----""Yes; wot have I to say to this tale? |
20071 | You and me wo n''t disgrace our fathers, will we, Giles?" |
20071 | You could n''t help me, now, ter find a guilty party?" |
20071 | You go out arter you ha''been at my house? |
20071 | You ha''never seen little Giles Mason?" |
20071 | You have n''t an idea what it is like, have you?" |
20071 | You know the way there; you wo n''t let yourself be kidnapped any more, will you, Connie?" |
20071 | You know wot to do?" |
20071 | You refuse my goodness? |
20071 | You surely have not been frightening her with the base idea that we would give her up, my boy?" |
20071 | You wants ter live in a cottage in the country, do n''t yer?" |
20071 | You would n''t mind my treating yer, jest fer once, would yer?" |
20071 | You yere me, Connie? |
20071 | You''asn''t, so to speak, lost something lately-- thimble, or a pair of scissors, or something o''that sort?" |
20071 | You''ll take me to see him, and then you''ll bring me back, wo n''t you, Connie?" |
20071 | You_ ai n''t_ goin''to work to- day-- be you, Connie?" |
20071 | _ You would_ like that, would n''t you?" |
20071 | ai n''t the world strange and difficult to live in? |
20071 | and ai n''t it lucky for the kid? |
20071 | and wot''s yer name, boy?" |
20071 | but, mother, may n''t I tell her my own self? |
20071 | continued Mrs. Nelson,"w''y hever should Sue be so late-- and this night, of all nights?" |
20071 | could n''t yer take her a little bit of a present?" |
20071 | have yer heard of her?" |
20071 | how hever could he?" |
20071 | how is he? |
20071 | is she really lost? |
20071 | replacement:"Wot sort?" |
20071 | said Connie--"burglars? |
20071 | what do yer think? |
20071 | why did those words sound through the room unless there_ is_ trouble about Sue?" |
20071 | with that drinkin''father o''yourn, wot do you want all alone by yer lonesome? |
20071 | wo n''t my little Giles be glad?" |
20071 | wot do you want wid him?" |
20071 | wot is she staying fur? |
20071 | you back?" |
20071 | you have a little brother, Cinderella?" |
