31128	Will you do that for me, sir?"
31128	Would they ever try to get his body up?

15503	Ye''ll be gaun to do something decent the day, Tam, when we take ye hame?
15503	Yes, I know; but do you think, Robert, that the time has come to put it to the test?
15503	Yes, but when you know that why do you allow yourselves to be wheedled?
15503	You dinna mean tae tell me that Mysie Maitland has disappeared? 15503 You''ll no''ken, I suppose?"

15503	Am I just to disappear oot o''everybody''s kennin''altogether?
15503	Am I the lass you wad hae ta''en, Peter, if this hadna happened?"
15503	And forby,"he went on, as if now more sure of his ground,"what the hell''s wrang in it?
15503	And the sea?
15503	And what is it you want?"
15503	And what is the reason?
15503	Another silence; and then came the query--"What way do we not get plenty o''pieces when my daddy''s no''working?
15503	Are the handicaps out yet?"
15503	Are we a''goin''to be buried thegither?
15503	Are ye in there?"

15503	Could you care for me, Mysie?"
15503	Dae you think we dinna ken the reason that Sanny has lost his contracts an''the reason why Tam Granger has stepped into them?
15503	Did immortality carry with it pain and suffering for them?
15503	Did n''t I make a horrible mess of things in the Red Hose?"
15503	Did you see the look in her e''en?"
15503	Dis a''your customers get the Catechism when they come in here?"

15503	Does he mean to say that we can let folk starve?"
15503	Does she think I dinna ken her?
15503	God knows where she may be?"
15503	Had he at last spoken to her and been discouraged?
15503	Had the stranger any connection with her disappearance, he asked himself?
15503	Hae I vexed you by speakin''like that?
15503	Hae you been oot in it a''?"
15503	Have I done anything to ye, for I do n''t ken o''it?"
15503	Have you been oot in a''that rain?"
15503	He stepped out as Walker advanced, and said:"Is that you, Walker?"
15503	Hoo much will it be, think you?"
15503	How are they a''keepin''?"
15503	How big would it be?
15503	How tell her that John was dead, and her father perhaps dying?
15503	How tell of her mother eating out her heart in the hungry longing for news of the missing girl, and killing herself with work and worry?
15503	How was he to tell Mysie of this?
15503	How''s yersel''?"
15503	However, we hae a hale day to oorsel''s now, what dae you say to gaun to the length of Kew Gardens?
15503	I dinna ken what the world''s comin''to at a'', I''m sure?
15503	I wonder what''ll be the cause o''t?

15503	If not, did it carry happiness and balm?
15503	In the name o''a''that''s guid, what has happened to bring aboot sic news?"
15503	Is he awfu''ill?"
15503	Is it because they are honester than us?
15503	Is it me that is the cause o''you being vexed?"
15503	Is it true, mither?"
15503	Is n''t it?"
15503	Is she in want this nicht, the same as we are oorsels?
15503	Is the pain in your back worse the nicht, that you are so restless?"
15503	Is-- is it--?"
15503	My, it''s awfu'', is n''t it?"
15503	Now what do you say?"
15503	Oh, Matthew,"she cried out, again bursting into tears, and sobbing pitifully,"what is''t we hae done to be tried like this?
15503	Oh, can you no''see, lassie, that it wad be a''richt if you''d do as I want you?"
15503	Or if he was doing this deliberately, and did not mean to meet her?
15503	Rundell?"
15503	She stopped peeling the potatoes to look up and smile, as she replied:"Passed the fifth standard, Robin?"
15503	Should he tell of that?
15503	So ye mind, Mysie, hoo Tam Graham''s lass aye clashed on the rest o''us on the pit- head?
15503	Suppose Peter failed to be at the station, what would she do in a strange city?
15503	Tam Donaldson and Robert compared notes after the meeting was over in the following conversation:"What do you think o''it, Tam?"
15503	Tam, clearing his throat, led of: Hey, Johnnie Graham, are ye wauken yet, Or is yer fire no''ken''lt yet?
15503	Then after a short pause,"Wha was he, Mysie?
15503	Then as she choked and spluttered in her anger he said:"But what the hell odds is''t to you, you baggage?"
15503	Then the figure of the man drew nearer, and he whispered"Are they all sleeping?"
15503	Then, his voice becoming more pleading in its tones,"Wad you be feart to be my wife, Mysie?
15503	This was Robert Smillie''s task, and who shall say, looking at the rank and file to- day, that he has failed?
15503	Was he dreaming?
15503	Was it worth living and going on in this way?
15503	Was it worth while to continue?
15503	Was it yirsel''?"
15503	Was there nothing to be done?
15503	Was this Mysie-- this faint apparition of the girl whom he had loved?
15503	Were they awfu''vexed at what I did?
15503	Wha put it on for ye?
15503	Wha the hell hae we to quarrel wi''onyway, I''d like to ken?"
15503	What ails you?
15503	What are they but shameless lumps who dinna ken what modesty is?"
15503	What did my faither say aboot it?
15503	What do they think o''me, Rob?
15503	What do ye a''think o''it, men?"
15503	What do ye think?"
15503	What else is there to do?"
15503	What had happened to her?
15503	What had she done to reap all this suffering?
15503	What has happened to you a''this time?
15503	What has happened?"
15503	What if he were ill, and would not come?
15503	What is it, Mysie?
15503	What is the matter?"
15503	What kin''o''a man is Hardie?"
15503	What might his mother not do with a pound?
15503	What the hell right has ony gaffer wi''what a man does?
15503	What the hell wad a workin''man dae wi''three wives?
15503	What was a city like?
15503	What was beyond it after death?
15503	What was the meaning of all this?
15503	What was the meaning of life?
15503	What was the nature of her terrible grief?
15503	What was wrong with her?
15503	What way would the gentry hae a''thae things, an''us hae nane?"
15503	What would be waiting for her at the end of the journey?
15503	What''s that?"
15503	What''s the matter wi''ye?"
15503	What''s wrang?"
15503	What''s wrang?"
15503	What''s wrang?"
15503	Where are ye?
15503	Where are ye?"
15503	Where hae you been?
15503	Where has she gane?
15503	Where have you been?
15503	Where have you been?
15503	Where have you been?"
15503	Where was Mysie, he wondered?
15503	Who shall catch that glow of strength and health, and work it into deathless song?
15503	Who shall sing in lyrical language the exhilaration of such splendid men''s work?
15503	Why did you go away?"
15503	Why were you fighting with Peter?"
15503	Will I hae to gang away, an''no''tell her?"
15503	Will I kiss you held and make it better?"
15503	Will she be hungry an''homeless, ill clad, an''oot in the storm?
15503	Will you come?"
15503	Will you come?"
15503	Will you let me have a try?
15503	Will you let me try?"
15503	Will you marry me, Mysie?"
15503	Willn''t ye, Mysie?"
15503	Would he be in time to blast the barrier down before the steadily creeping moss rose to cut off his only avenue of escape?
15503	Would he, indeed, have to wait till after death before knowing anything of real happiness or comfort?
15503	Would immortality, if such there were, be worth having?
15503	Would n''t you like to marry me?"
15503	Would she choose him before all these others?
15503	Wull there be onything wrang?"
15503	Yet what could be the meaning of all this mystery?
15503	You are wet to the skin, an''there''s no a dry steek on you?
15503	You say you never intended to be onybody''s wife but mine; an''what wye should you no''do as I propose?
15503	You''re ill. What''s the matter?
15503	he enquired, his hands at once going tenderly over her bent head, and caressing it as he spoke,"What is it, Mysie?
15503	my dochter, what is it?"
15503	where have you come from?
56528	A strike? 56528 Afraid of what?
56528	And Cécile?
56528	And Lydie?
56528	And Maheude?
56528	And is your company rich?
56528	And let it be well glazed, wo n''t you?
56528	And my mother, eh, and the little girl? 56528 And school, mother?"
56528	And that imp, Jeanlin,cried the mother;"where is he now, I should like to know?
56528	And that makes you cough so?
56528	And the doctor?
56528	And the little one?
56528	And the means of execution? 56528 And the soup?
56528	And what steps do you decide on? 56528 And where do you come from?"
56528	And why pillage me?
56528	And you, my little darlings,asked Deneulin of his daughters;"have they broken any of your bones?"
56528	And you-- nothing new, always from bad to worse? 56528 Are our brawlers getting angry at last?"
56528	Are the little ones back?
56528	Are there factories at Montsou?
56528	Are they going to bed here?
56528	Are we Cossacks?
56528	Are we at the end?
56528	Are you a coward? 56528 Are you here?"
56528	Are you in pain?
56528	Are you never thirsty?
56528	Are you ready? 56528 Are you sorry?"
56528	Are you sure you have not made a mistake?
56528	But I shall see you again?
56528	But what has taken you? 56528 But where shall we go, mother?
56528	But, anyhow, do you know where to go to?
56528	But,said Négrel,"what in the name of creation have you come up for, then?
56528	Can I come down yet?
56528	Come down, will you?
56528	Did I beat her when she took this Chaval?
56528	Did n''t I say so?
56528	Did n''t I tell you that they care nothing?
56528	Do they want a hand here for any kind of work?
56528	Do you remember?
56528	Do you see that scoundrel, Rasseneur, over there on the threshold of the public- house?
56528	Do you see them?
56528	Do you think you will benefit me if you stop work at my place? 56528 Do you think, then, that I''ve got thousands coming in?
56528	Do you think,he asked,"if I''m not punished, that they''ll give me a month''s leave in two years?"
56528	Do you understand?
56528	Does it concern you?
56528	Eh, are you the father?
56528	Eh? 56528 Eh?
56528	Eh? 56528 Eh?
56528	Father, what is it?
56528	Getting up at this hour?
56528	Has it been windy? 56528 Have n''t the Piolaine people told you to go and see them?"
56528	Have n''t they ugly faces?
56528	Have the children had any of it?
56528	Have you anything to tell me?
56528	Have you been working long at the mine?
56528	Have you got money, then?
56528	Have you got one of your two rooms free, and will you give him credit for a fortnight?
56528	Have you seen in the paper about Pluchart''s success at Paris?
56528	He''s robbing us, Lydie, is n''t he? 56528 Here we are, are we not, Dansaert?"
56528	Here we are,said the former to Étienne;"will you come in?"
56528	Here, I owe you six francs; would you like to settle it? 56528 How are things going with Pluchart?"
56528	How can one stir with a child that''s always screaming? 56528 How can they live in such dirt?"
56528	How is the old man?
56528	How much have you in the fund?
56528	How the devil did I come to get such a jade? 56528 I say, Mouquet,"whispered Zacharie in the lander''s ear,"are we off to the Volcan to- night?"
56528	I say, then, is this how you make fun of people?
56528	I say,she murmured, all at once coming and putting her arms round him prettily,"why do n''t you like me?"
56528	I suppose no one has been left at the bottom?
56528	I thought,said Madame Grégoire,"that the Company gave you lodging and firing?"
56528	If I were to take the box?
56528	If Jean- Bart bothers you as much as that,said he, laughing,"why do n''t you give it up to us?"
56528	Is Jeanlin working?
56528	Is Rasseneur in?
56528	Is he going to drag me about long?
56528	Is it a nickname?
56528	Is it blood?
56528	Is it deep?
56528	Is it serious, then, that you look at us like this? 56528 Is it true, then,"asked Maheu of Chaval, whom he met before the Estaminet Piquette,"that they''ve played the dirty trick?"
56528	Is n''t it a pity, all this nonsense?
56528	Is not my husband with you?
56528	Is that meant for me?
56528	It is n''t that big Chaval now?
56528	Jealous of what?
56528	Just leave me alone, will you? 56528 Just leave me alone, will you?"
56528	Let me go, do you hear?
56528	Long? 56528 Mates, what is your decision?
56528	Now, come, decide; where would you like me to take you? 56528 On her?
56528	Over where? 56528 People can find lovers when they all live together, ca n''t they?"
56528	Rasseneur,called Étienne,"bring a glass, will you?"
56528	Shall I tell you what it is?
56528	Since the Company professes to leave us free,he repeated,"what is there to fear?
56528	Souvarine, wo n''t you have one?
56528	Tell me, what have you got in your skin, at your age?
56528	That''s it, old man, is n''t it? 56528 The little one?
56528	Then Maheude is not coming this morning?
56528	Then if you think the game''s lost,asked Rasseneur,"why do n''t you make the mates listen to reason?"
56528	Then it is at night that the moles come out? 56528 Then it''s to me that you''re saying that?"
56528	Then what''s your name?
56528	Then you are against the strike?
56528	Then you put yourself against me, wench? 56528 Then you''ll keep me, and it will be all right this time?"
56528	Then you''ll stay?
56528	Then you''re not afraid?
56528	Then you''re still going?
56528	Then, sir, that is all that you reply? 56528 Then, there''s no news?"
56528	Then, what? 56528 Then,"he murmured,"if I were to ask you to put a hundred thousand francs in my affair you would refuse?"
56528	Then,said Madame Grégoire,"you have worked for a long time at the mines?"
56528	Well, are you going to take it?
56528	Well, do you refuse?
56528	Well, my good man,said the father,"you have a cold, then?"
56528	Well, philosopher, what troubles you? 56528 Well, what are you going to do?"
56528	Well, what do you think of it?
56528	Well, what has that to do with us? 56528 Well, what''s going on then, my lads?"
56528	Well, what?
56528	Well, wo n''t you come in and drink a little glass?
56528	Well,he asked,"what have you to say to me?"
56528	Well,he asked,"what would you do in my place?
56528	Well,replied Mouquette, in a good humour,"what''s that to do with you?
56528	Well?
56528	What are we stuck here for, blast it? 56528 What are you angry about?
56528	What are you doing up there?
56528	What are you up to there, all of you? 56528 What do you mean, the Black Man?"
56528	What do you say about it, eh?
56528	What do you say? 56528 What do you want?"
56528	What do you want?
56528	What do you want?
56528	What does that matter, if it amuses her? 56528 What does that matter?
56528	What does that matter?
56528	What for?
56528	What have you come after here, you pack of meddlers?
56528	What have you done that for?
56528	What have you got to say, eh, about their society?
56528	What ideas?
56528	What is it now?
56528	What is it they have at the end of that stick?
56528	What is it, then?
56528	What is it?
56528	What is she doing, then?
56528	What is that lazy Chaval up to? 56528 What is that, then?"
56528	What on earth have you come here for?
56528	What other one?
56528	What the devil''s that to do with you?
56528	What would you have? 56528 What would you have?
56528	What''s that there? 56528 What''s that, then?"
56528	What''s to be done?
56528	What''s up with you?
56528	What''s up?
56528	What, then?
56528	What? 56528 What?
56528	Where are you going to?
56528	Where are you off to?
56528	Where are your sweethearts?
56528	Where is Jeanlin?
56528	Where is Poland, then?
56528	Where is she, then, your mother?
56528	Where''s my coffee and my sugar and the meat? 56528 Where, then, is Chaval?"
56528	Who does it all belong to, then?
56528	Who is it?
56528	Who is that?
56528	Who is that?
56528	Who says so? 56528 Who, then?"
56528	Whom do you mean?
56528	Whom do you mean?
56528	Why did you lie?
56528	Why, did n''t she have the cheek to say just now that she would strangle Catherine if she were to come to that? 56528 Why?
56528	Will you be still, vermin?
56528	Will you come and dine with me?
56528	Will you come for a moment, my child?
56528	Will you drink, by God? 56528 Will you drink?"
56528	Will you have a game?
56528	Will you hold your tongue, eh? 56528 Will you make them be still?"
56528	Will you share with me?
56528	Work for an engine- man? 56528 Would you rather he had remained below?"
56528	Yes, the Man-- you know? 56528 You after Chaval; and after you another, eh?
56528	You believe in those stupid things? 56528 You belong to Belgium, perhaps?"
56528	You come and gorge yourself here, when we are dying of hunger up above?
56528	You do n''t eat?
56528	You must be about fourteen then?
56528	You only have these two?
56528	You will allow me, will you not, my good woman?
56528	You''ll have a glass with me?
56528	Your notion, then, is to pillage over there?
56528	A bit of veal, eh?
56528	A little glass of sweet, wo n''t you?"
56528	A thing which we ca n''t get into our heads, do n''t you see?
56528	After an awkward silence he made up his mind:"Poland?
56528	All sorts of confused questions came before him: Why are some miserable?
56528	Already there was not enough to eat, and what would happen if wages were still further lowered?
56528	Am I not right to act as I do?
56528	And as he hesitated:"Then you''re still afraid of me?"
56528	And do n''t say anything, will you, if you want to be kind?"
56528	And first, who says that my wife said so?"
56528	And from behind, the Levaque woman added, more violently:"Must we eat you to get through?
56528	And he quickly spoke to the manager:"It has come, then?
56528	And he took her again and pressed her, out of bravado, crushing his red moustache against her mouth, and continuing:"Will you leave us alone, eh?
56528	And he went on calling to the men; did not the goods in there belong to the colliers?
56528	And his dream of popular leadership again soothed him: Montsou at his feet, Paris in the misty distance, who knows?
56528	And how can we set about it?"
56528	And how were they to prevent these furious people from impaling themselves?
56528	And it''s you that pay him, eh?
56528	And she questioned him; had she been seen so, without even a handkerchief around her waist to cover her?
56528	And the other struggled and protested furiously:"What''s all this for?
56528	And the others?
56528	And then, you silly beast, how can I divide eleven sous into three?
56528	And what do they pay you in your house, your wife and the gentleman who is this minute wearing out her skin?"
56528	And what have you invented instead?
56528	And what would be the end of it all if no help arrived, and starvation came to beat down their courage?
56528	And what''s to be done?
56528	And where do you go?"
56528	And who was cutting them, when the men were below?
56528	Another girl given a tumble on a pile of stones?
56528	Another?
56528	Any work here?"
56528	Are they going to send us any money?"
56528	Are they to come in here?"
56528	Are you coming, up there?"
56528	Are you going to fill your tub?
56528	Are you going to let your mates be carried off to prison?
56528	Are you going to try and create a section at Montsou?"
56528	As to the masters, they''re often rascals; but there always will be masters, wo n''t there?
56528	At last he said:"I suppose I ought to jump on the boss?
56528	At what spot should they cut into the bed?
56528	Besides, where could they fly?
56528	Besides, who would hear them?
56528	But at that moment Madame Hennebeau''s voice called from the first story:"Is that you, Paul?
56528	But he could not understand its presence here: how could it have got into Paul''s bed?
56528	But one thinks, does n''t one?
56528	But what could one do?
56528	But what was the good?
56528	But what was to be done?
56528	But why?
56528	Can it be possible?
56528	Can you believe that the Company has not as much to lose as you have in the present crisis?
56528	Chase them away on their return from Marchiennes, like stinking animals whom he would no longer have beneath his roof?
56528	Could he anticipate, for instance, that his followers in the settlement would one day stone him?
56528	Could it be that any were cowardly enough to go back on their word?
56528	Could they not go away quietly?
56528	Could you give it me back?"
56528	Did he frighten her, that she always refused?
56528	Did he still desire her, that he felt so troubled, gradually warmed at the heart by a fresh longing?
56528	Did he want to hurt such a little darling, who was as soft as silk, so tender that he could have devoured her?
56528	Did it matter a hang what the Company wanted?
56528	Did not my great- grandfather gain, and hardly, too, the sum originally invested?
56528	Did she not love him enough?
56528	Did she want, then, to remain in the pit to die of hunger?
56528	Did you hear?
56528	Did you see anything?"
56528	Do I know you?
56528	Do they want to make fools of people?"
56528	Do you call yourself a man to lower yourself like that before one of these beasts who devour us?"
56528	Do you know that it is beastly to stuff yourself like this?
56528	Do you see?
56528	Do you think the bourgeois would ever consent to work as we do?"
56528	Do you understand?
56528	Do you understand?"
56528	Do you vote for the strike to go on?"
56528	Do you want the strike to go on?
56528	Does it work?
56528	Does n''t Zacharie owe us any respect?
56528	Double the timbering-- do you understand?"
56528	Eh, do you hear?
56528	Eh, what do you say to it?"
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Eh?
56528	Even if he mended the cables and lit the fires, where would he find men?
56528	Had n''t we enough misery, that He had to make her ill too, just when I ca n''t even give her a cup of warm gruel?"
56528	Had she let her tongue fall?
56528	Had she not been with a man?
56528	Had she not made him suffer with the same suffering here, on this Réquillart road, when she had given herself to that man?
56528	Had she not suffered too much already?
56528	Had they not the right to take back their property from this thief who had exploited them so long, who was starving them at a hint from the Company?
56528	Have n''t we got enough to do with our misery?
56528	Have n''t you got it in your own power to make yourselves happy on earth?"
56528	Have they not a Provident Fund?"
56528	Have we not run all the risks of the enterprise, and do I today make a bad use of my income?"
56528	Have you examined?"
56528	Have you got nothing?"
56528	Have you just a little vermicelli by way of loan?"
56528	He asked:"Then Monsieur Hennebeau owns the mine?"
56528	He discussed no more, he simply said:"We have gone far; shall we go back?"
56528	He had, in fact, arrived, and another voice cried from the bottom of the cutting:"Well, is this the way to treat people?
56528	He has cost us something, has n''t he?
56528	He hesitated at first: was it indeed she, that young girl in the coarse blue dress, with that bonnet?
56528	He remained a moment motionless, then added, in his hollow voice:"What is it that you want?
56528	He said in a low voice, with abstracted gaze, as if to himself:"Raise wages-- how can you?
56528	He said, smiling:"Will you come and see?"
56528	He was expecting the postman at two o''clock; ought he at once to ask for troops?
56528	He was sleeping, then?
56528	He went on:"Do you see that?
56528	He went on:"Where is the beast who does not understand that?
56528	His anxiety became extreme, every minute was of importance; what decision should he take?
56528	His eyes lifted and his face was very pale; he said softly to his companion:"Did I ever tell you how she died?"
56528	His voice changed, his eyes grew bright, he fixed them on Étienne, directly addressing him:"Now, do you understand that?
56528	How can one tell how things are going to turn out?
56528	How can we make the strike general if we do n''t force all the mates to be on our side?"
56528	How can you do good to such creatures?"
56528	How can you talk such folly, you who ought to know the enormous risks which capital runs in industry-- in the mines, for example?
56528	How could Bonnemort, nailed to his chair, have been able to seize her throat?
56528	How could he defend these buildings, open on every side?
56528	How could he keep his engagements?
56528	How could she come back now if the miners were to prolong their joking?
56528	How do you expect me to go on?
56528	How do you reckon to set about it?"
56528	How far ought they to flee to reach shelter at the end of this abominable day, beneath this leaden cloud which also seemed about to crush the earth?
56528	How is it with you?"
56528	How many hours passed by thus?
56528	How was this known?
56528	How were nine people to live for a fortnight on fifty francs?
56528	How were they to live, seven persons without counting Estelle, on his three francs?
56528	How would the nations spring up again?
56528	I said nothing; and who told you so?"
56528	I say, you knew Roussie?"
56528	If any class must be devoured, would not the people, still new and full of life, devour the middle class, exhausted by enjoyment?
56528	Is it cooked, then?"
56528	Is it honest, whenever a crisis comes, to leave the workers to die with hunger in order to save the shareholders''dividends?
56528	Is it not so?
56528	Is it not true that all citizens are equal since the Revolution, because they vote together?
56528	Is it possible to make oneself so wretched through wanting justice?"
56528	Is it ready yet?"
56528	Is it you lighting up, Catherine?"
56528	Is n''t a man free?
56528	Is n''t it best for us to join this association?"
56528	Is n''t it enough, then, all these abominations?
56528	Is n''t it true, Alzire, that we have all had some?"
56528	Is n''t the good God making fun of us?
56528	Is that little chat nearly done?"
56528	Is that nice?"
56528	It is not the Emperor''s fault, perhaps; but why should he go and fight in America?
56528	It was Maheude who replied:"To mass, sir?
56528	It was good that they should want their work paid for at what it was worth, but why occupy oneself with such things as the bourgeois and Government?
56528	It was the downfall of their very life; what was the good of living, now that they would have to live without her?
56528	It was the end; what could they expect, reduced to this niche where they dared not move, exhausted, starving, having neither bread nor light?
56528	It''ll do, wo n''t it?
56528	It''s filling, then, to live on other people''s deaths?"
56528	It''s nothing, is it?"
56528	It''s the neighbour that you want?
56528	It''s to spare your arms, eh?
56528	It''s true, is n''t it, old un, that the doctor''s mistaken, and that you can still work?"
56528	Just tell me you did n''t say so, eh?"
56528	Let them pay you more, eh?
56528	M. Grégoire began again:"And everything goes well at the pit?"
56528	Maheu asked him another question:"Is it the Voreux''s turn now?"
56528	Maheude?
56528	Must I spit in your face before people to get your spirits up?"
56528	Must he leave his carcass behind a wall, like a strayed dog?
56528	Must he still push them on in obstinate resistance, now that there was neither money nor credit?
56528	Need one be so particular with these damned soldiers who were worrying the colliers in their own homes?
56528	No one knew exactly, the shouts made it impossible to hear; were they going to bed there?
56528	No politics, no conspiracies, is it not so?
56528	Nothing at Piolaine, nothing at Maigrat''s: then where?
56528	Négrel, who was exhausted, shouted to the overseers:"Ca n''t you make them be still?
56528	On what were they to count now since even their brothers had abandoned them?
56528	Only I say things as they are, and I know neighbours who could n''t say as much, do n''t you think?"
56528	Only what will that lead you to?"
56528	Perhaps it required a lawyer, a learned man, able to speak and act without compromising the mates?
56528	Pierronne, is it?
56528	Put some potatoes on to boil; we''ll eat them with a little butter and some coffee, eh?
56528	Say it''s time to get up?"
56528	Shall I go and fetch her?"
56528	Shall I try and get you credit somewhere?"
56528	She had then consented?
56528	She looked at him without listening, and said at last, speaking familiarly:"Eh?
56528	She said again, stammering:"What would you have?
56528	She was always there, looking at him with her large fixed eyes, laughing her good- natured laugh, as if to say:"Are you willing?"
56528	She was astonished; what had that got to do with politics?
56528	Should he remain?
56528	So what was to be done?--to go elsewhere, to die of hunger, to yield beneath the blows of every man who might pass?
56528	Speaking as though they had left each other good friends an hour before, he simply asked:"Have you looked down below?
56528	Strangle Pierronne and the others, and fight the whole settlement?
56528	Suddenly he called out:"I say there, Maheu; have you no care for life?
56528	The Company was, then, in luck since the terrible Montsou wrestler had come back to it to ask for bread?
56528	The best is, is it not, to try and live honestly in the place in which the good God has put us?"
56528	The former said at last:"Is it Chaval you''re waiting for?
56528	The little urchins came back hungry, they wanted to eat; why could they not have something to eat?
56528	The lodger, hiding his timid gentleness in his great beard, protested and stammered:"Oh, that?
56528	The manager went on:"But, as a matter of fact, is it our fault?
56528	The other man wanted to interrupt him, but he added:"Why do n''t you be frank?
56528	The other turned pale and his lips trembled; then, with a movement of excuse:"What would you have?
56528	The water had already filled that hole, then?
56528	Then he cried:"Have n''t you got any blood in your veins, by God?"
56528	Then he imagined that Catherine must be ill."I say, is it you?
56528	Then he made a gesture of resignation: what was the good?
56528	Then someone was dead?
56528	Then the colliers were no longer masters in their own place?
56528	Then they wanted to turn him into the street?
56528	Then what was to be done?
56528	Then what would they do afterwards?
56528	Then Étienne asked, pointing to the sombre pile of buildings at the foot of the platform:"A pit, is n''t it?"
56528	Then, as he still scraped, he added proudly:"Is n''t it comfortable in my house?
56528	Then, when he had expectorated and wiped the black froth from his lips, he replied in the rising wind:"Eh?
56528	There is nothing to say to them; what could you do?
56528	There was, then, not even passion, not even jealousy at the bottom of this persistent sensuality?
56528	There were twenty of them; were those bloody bosses going to abandon them thus?
56528	They are delicious, are they not?"
56528	They do tell stories--""Eh?
56528	They went back towards the Voreux slowly, and he added, after a few paces:"Have you seen the new placards?"
56528	They were known to be there; why weary oneself more?
56528	To listen to you talking useless foolery?
56528	Toussaint Maheu, is it not?
56528	Towards whom should they go, since no once appeared to be there?
56528	Unfortunately, the difficulty began when the question arose, What could be done?
56528	Was Darwin right, then, and the world only a battlefield, where the strong ate the weak for the sake of the beauty and continuance of the race?
56528	Was So- and- so among them?
56528	Was he going to be left on the road, hanging in the blackness?
56528	Was he, then, a coward?
56528	Was he, then, making fools of people?
56528	Was it his fault if they had left that fat lazy fellow to come to him?
56528	Was it not a cry of famine that the March wind rolled up across this naked plain?
56528	Was it not fearful?
56528	Was it not the common lot?
56528	Was it not what he always met, girls tumbled over at the bottom of every ditch, beggars who crammed themselves with the only joy that cost nothing?
56528	Was it possible to kill oneself at this hard toil, in this deadly darkness, and not even to gain the few pence to buy one''s daily bread?
56528	Was it resolved to destroy them?
56528	Was it some mates, then, who had also found the road barred and were returning?
56528	Was it the thunder of a landslip bringing on to their heads the enormous mass which separated them from the light?
56528	Was it true?
56528	Was it true?
56528	Was it, then, all over?
56528	Was it, then, done with for ever?
56528	Was life worth living when one had to keep one''s daughter''s fatherless children while she went off with her lover?
56528	Was n''t it so?"
56528	Was not justice on the side of the miners?
56528	Was not that Maheude beneath the beetroots, with bent back and hoarse respiration accompanying the rumble of the ventilator?
56528	Was not that a superb effort, a campaign in which justice would at last triumph?
56528	Was not that better than to roam the streets like a vagabond?
56528	Was that all?
56528	Was that the terrible thing which blew everything up?
56528	Was that the urchin whom he had seen in breeches, with her head in the canvas cap?
56528	Was the old social order cracking this very evening?
56528	Was there anything in life worth more?
56528	We are not going to leave off eating, I suppose?"
56528	We ca n''t pass through the cuttings, then?"
56528	We do n''t ask a man to cut his own throat, do we?
56528	We have left her free, have n''t we?
56528	We want five centimes more, do n''t we, you others?"
56528	We''ll go, eh?
56528	Well, are you coming, Louis?
56528	Were his eyes out?
56528	Were there, then, neither soldiers nor police at the Victoire?
56528	Were these people going to bed at the Maheus''?
56528	Were they being made fun of?
56528	Were they going to abandon the meeting?
56528	Were they making fun of people?
56528	Were they not very fortunate?
56528	Were they to let themselves be worried much longer?
56528	Were they very dirty?
56528	What a hustling, eh?
56528	What accident could thus have driven away their mates?
56528	What are you doing, then?"
56528	What do I want to do with the singers?
56528	What do they want me to do with him?"
56528	What do you think they can do with that?
56528	What does it matter to you?
56528	What does that matter?"
56528	What fault had she committed, then, that misfortune would never give her any rest?
56528	What for?
56528	What good would it do us, what you ask, now that I have a lover and you have a woman yourself?"
56528	What had he got in his bones, then?
56528	What has she got in her skin, then, not to be able to wait till I married her after she had helped to get us out of difficulties?
56528	What have we done, then, that we should have such troubles-- some under the earth, and the others with nothing left but to long to get there too?
56528	What he wants I''m obliged to want too, are n''t I?
56528	What is the good of letting men be killed for nothing?"
56528	What is the matter?"
56528	What is your aim?"
56528	What more could she take off?
56528	What now?
56528	What now?
56528	What rancour, unknown to himself, by some slow process of poisoning, had risen from his bowels to his brain?
56528	What right have they to freeze us in this way?"
56528	What shall we do with all this?"
56528	What should he do to them?
56528	What should he do with a putter?
56528	What stories?"
56528	What the devil are you doing there?"
56528	What the devil was she doing down there?
56528	What then had happened that they did not meet a soul?
56528	What then?
56528	What then?
56528	What then?
56528	What was going on, then, to bring all these people into the roads?
56528	What was it, then?
56528	What was the good of a scandal?
56528	What was the good of anything else?
56528	What was the good of bothering over the strike?
56528	What was the good of destroying the galleries?
56528	What was the good of disturbing him?
56528	What was the good of explaining, for she would not understand in her grief?
56528	What was the good of having a possible act of cowardice on one''s conscience?
56528	What was the good of it all?
56528	What was the good of knocking?
56528	What was the good of persisting?
56528	What was the good of risking a useless massacre?
56528	What was the good of stirring up this abomination?
56528	What was the good of this dream of fraternizing with the soldiers?
56528	What was the good?
56528	What was the good?
56528	What was the matter with her, then, today?
56528	What was the matter, then?
56528	What was the use?
56528	What was to be done?
56528	What was to be done?
56528	What was to become of them if Maigrat persisted in cutting short their credit, and if the Piolaine people would not give them the five francs?
56528	What will become of us, eh, if our children begin at once to work for others?
56528	What would his wife do, and what would become of them if she were to return with empty hands?
56528	What would you do?
56528	What would you have?
56528	What''s the use of doing it?"
56528	What''s the use of racking your brains over those things?"
56528	What''s this?"
56528	What, then, was going on outside?
56528	What, then, was happening?
56528	What, then, was happening?
56528	When a man came up, she rose and questioned him with her eyes: Nothing?
56528	When he saw Étienne he asked, with contemptuous surprise:"What''s that?"
56528	When justice came, would it be thanks to the cartridges distributed by the middle class?
56528	When one has right on one''s side, do n''t you think it gives you heart, and one ends always by being the strongest?"
56528	When one has to work, one works; is n''t it true?
56528	When shall it be?"
56528	When the young man had folded the letter, she questioned him:"Is the news good?
56528	When they had finished their omelette and cheese, the engine- man proposed to depart, and as the other tried to detain him:"What for?
56528	Where am I to get it from, eh?
56528	Where are you going to?"
56528	Where could he be?
56528	Where do the bandits spring from?"
56528	Where should he go, and what was to become of him in this country famished for lack of work?
56528	Where should they go to?
56528	Where the devil could that madcap Paul have stuffed it?
56528	Where was he going?
56528	Where was it, over there?
56528	Where was it, that Plogof which had appeared to him beneath the dazzling sun?
56528	Where was it, then?
56528	Where was it?
56528	Whispers ran around:"It''s Trompette, is n''t it?
56528	Who are those who want to work?"
56528	Who could say that the workers had had their reasonable share in the extraordinary increase of wealth and comfort during the last hundred years?
56528	Who had ever seen such boobies?
56528	Who knows whether Alzire had sponged over the table?
56528	Who then was the guilty one?
56528	Who thought of it first, eh?"
56528	Who was it?
56528	Who was the fool who placed earthly happiness in the partition of wealth?
56528	Who would dare to be first to speak of submission?
56528	Who would have expected such a thing?
56528	Who would pay the interest on the sums his friends had confided to him?
56528	Why are you going over to the bourgeois?"
56528	Why could he not imitate others, demand a part for himself, obtain shares, succeed in something at last?
56528	Why could no one say?
56528	Why could not things be done coolly?
56528	Why cut the cables?
56528	Why did he want her to leave her man?
56528	Why had Cécile come near?
56528	Why had he found her ugly?
56528	Why had she not seen them in the settlement?
56528	Why had the strikers gone to Deneulin instead of attacking one of the Company''s pits?
56528	Why had they not come across any soldiers?
56528	Why him, more than any one else?"
56528	Why lose a lunch that was already cooking?
56528	Why mix oneself up with other people''s affairs, when one would get nothing out of it but hard knocks?
56528	Why not hold this meeting?
56528	Why risk displeasing fate by doubting it?
56528	Why should he be so zealous, this man who had sold himself?
56528	Why should he interfere?
56528	Why should he not talk with this soldier?
56528	Why should it prove the stronger in this war of labour against gold?
56528	Why should the worker remain the slave of the master who pays him?
56528	Why should they not take a lodger?
56528	Why should they thus sulk against what they desired?
56528	Why, then, at the same idea to- day did she feel repugnance and something like regret?
56528	Why, was he afraid of a glass?
56528	Why?"
56528	Why?"
56528	Will it be soon?
56528	Will that hold?
56528	Will you be good enough to look over there if we are at it?"
56528	Will you come?"
56528	Will you just fill your tram and push?"
56528	Will you listen?"
56528	Would he then end as a murderer?
56528	Would it not be better if they were to shut up their bellies, and press their thighs together, as at the approach of misfortune?
56528	Would it not be better to die at once in the effort to destroy this tyranny of capital, which was starving the worker?
56528	Would it not soon be done with, this cursed life of misfortune?
56528	Would the Company refuse to take them on again?
56528	Would the settlement itself pass into it?
56528	Would they never dare to love each other some day, now that they were free?
56528	You are going to flog our daughters, are you?"
56528	You do n''t want to have anything to do with me?"
56528	You see if she is confined, and obliged to marry, what shall we do for a living then?"
56528	You were bothered, eh?
56528	Zacharie, is it done?"
56528	a bit of grilled cod?
56528	all that belong to?
56528	and if so, what do you expect to do to beat the Company?"
56528	and that one?
56528	and the marriage with little Négrel?"
56528	and this one?
56528	and why had this child just killed a soldier whose very name he did not know?
56528	and why this demand?
56528	and you, what do you say about it?"
56528	are you alone?"
56528	are you asleep?"
56528	asked Étienne again;"do you bring her here sometimes?"
56528	could tubbing be demolished like that?
56528	cried Chaval,"what the devil have you come here for?"
56528	did I tell you?
56528	did you hear?"
56528	do n''t you think so?"
56528	do they want a hand here for any kind of work?"
56528	exclaimed Maheu, furious at being dragged out of his dejection,"what is all this clatter again?
56528	exclaimed Étienne in a stifled voice;"where the devil is he going to?"
56528	from what side could they attack the rocks?
56528	gone away?"
56528	growled Étienne,"are they going to flatten us?
56528	had anything really changed in his house?
56528	had something happened?
56528	has the wind prevented you from sleeping, poor darling?"
56528	have n''t we got to the end yet?"
56528	he asked,"is n''t she up yet then?"
56528	how could they go down?
56528	how many are there in there?"
56528	is it forbidden to work, then?"
56528	is it possible?
56528	is it you?"
56528	is it you?"
56528	is it you?"
56528	is there any need to say where one goes?
56528	is this the rendezvous you called us to?"
56528	murmured the innkeeper;"what''s the good of it?
56528	or would it be better to wait patiently, and not to act until he had received the directors''orders?
56528	repeated M. Hennebeau;"am I happy?"
56528	said a miner grinning;"did that little fellow have you?
56528	said the young man;"why do you need a good God and his paradise to make you happy?
56528	she cried merrily;"was n''t it lucky that I leant my head?"
56528	so the strong man was thrown?
56528	that''s nice, is n''t it?
56528	the water was rising; what could he do?
56528	they come a little late, do n''t they, my worthy fellow?"
56528	they have money, why should they care?"
56528	to- morrow morning at Jean- Bart, is it agreed?"
56528	was it another accident?
56528	was it humbug, a pretence of going to sleep?
56528	was it possible that they were reduced to such misery?
56528	we are reaching the bottom: do you hear?"
56528	were the men also in the party?
56528	what has my little girl there done to Him, to be shaking with fever?
56528	what is it, then?"
56528	what is it?"
56528	what pleasant odour did he find in him?
56528	what the devil does it matter to me?"
56528	what will you do with all that?
56528	what''s happening, then?"
56528	what''s he done there?
56528	when your heads are smashed, is it you who will have to bear the consequences?
56528	where am I to get it from?
56528	where are you hurt?"
56528	where are you off to so quick?"
56528	where was it to be found, what was to be done?
56528	why are others rich?
56528	why are the former beneath the heel of the latter without hope of ever taking their place?
56528	why are the others such fools?"
56528	why did you take this trouble?"
56528	why do n''t you reply?
56528	why do you not take us?
56528	why have you done this?"
56528	why, in the devil''s name, do n''t you watch them?"
56528	why?
56528	will you climb up in front of me?"
56528	will you take that?
56528	would you like me to make it if you come back late?"
56528	you do n''t know?"
56528	you knew that, and said nothing?
56528	you''re going away?"
56528	Étienne narrated his vain wanderings of the past week: must one, then, die of hunger?
56528	Étienne recognized Rasseneur and was turning away, when the latter added:"You do n''t want to see me, eh?
56528	Étienne said again:"And if it breaks?"
56528	Étienne, for example, who was looking out for quarters?
56528	Étienne, losing his self- possession and trembling with anger, turned his eyes on his mate''s and stammered:"You''ve done that, you''ve done that?"
