4114	Here is my plan: you have a good canoe; why should some one not go over to Espanola in it and send back a ship for us?"

1488	And yet what man to- day is more highly honored than Christopher Columbus?

1488	But did Columbus discover America?

1488	Did you ever set out, in the dark, to walk with your little brother or sister along a road you did not know much about or had never gone over before?

1488	Is not this so?
1488	It was almost another case of the blind leading the blind, was it not?
1488	It was not an easy thing to do, was it?
1488	Now, how does this story that we have been reading together turn out?
1488	That was a curious way to discover Cathay, was it not?
1488	To hear of a great man who has fallen low or of a rich man who has become poor, always makes us say: Is not that too bad?

63173	And for what does her Majesty, the Queen, wish me to return?
63173	And why,cried Prince Juan, shaking Diego,"can not I see that glorious sight as well as you and Don Felipe?"
63173	But, my father,answered Diego,"do you think that I am not, after all, human, and that I am not filled with pride at the thought of being your son?
63173	Could you, my Lord Duke, grant the request of this young man?
63173	Does Don Felipe know?
63173	Doña Christina, will you say to the Princess Katharine and to Doña Luisita that they may be present to see the exercises in the manège?
63173	I wonder,said Diego,"if we will find at the castle your cousin, Don Tomaso de Gama, the daredevil knight of whom you have so often told me?
63173	Is the castle of Langara very grand?
63173	What does it mean?
63173	When will your father return?
63173	Where are your ten men- at- arms, Don Tomaso?
63173	Are you frightened at the thought of the court?"
63173	But in the morning my father asked me:"''Diego, do you like this place?''
63173	Do you think our great Queen Isabella in the place of the Moorish king would have so acted?
63173	Do you understand this?"
63173	Do you understand?"
63173	Fernando''s first question was:"Diego, when will our father come back?"
63173	He seized Don Felipe and shouted:"Is that a caravel I see?"
63173	He went up to the Queen''s chair and, kneeling on one knee, said:"Will your Majesty pardon me for what I am about to ask?
63173	How are you, lad?"
63173	Is that much to ask?
63173	May I go with that messenger to La Rabida?
63173	May I go, my Queen?
63173	Ought we not to consecrate them with prayer as knights do?"
63173	Shall he, the discoverer, be under the authority of a viceroy or another admiral?
63173	Suppose you had been caught asleep while waiting for the Queen?"
63173	Tell me when does the exercise in the manège begin for Prince Juan and the pages?"
63173	That is enough to make one silent, is it not, your Highness?"
63173	Why should the Admiral land in Portugal before coming to Spain?"
63173	You bear a letter, I suppose, from the Admiral?"
63173	You were often tired and footsore, too, were you not?
6810	Then why did n''t the sailor get it all?
6810	There now,cried Christopher in glee,"did I not tell you gold was sure to come?"
6810	What other method has he in mind?--robbery, piracy, murder, forsooth? 6810 And then again, good Admiral, why did you make the great mistake of bringing no women colonists with you? 6810 And what had Columbus himself done to help matters along? 6810 And who could tell whether it would end in favor of the Spanish? 6810 Besides, argued the Portuguese, would there be any profit at the end of the enterprise? 6810 But the Bahama natives knew of no race but their own; so what could these undreamed- of visitors be but divine? 6810 But why not, good Admiral? 6810 Can you not let others solve the great problems across the ocean? 6810 Can you not see that you have been greatest of them all, and that nothing more is required of you? 6810 Did ever a Christmas morning dawn more dismally? 6810 Did he recall the beautiful climate of Haiti which he said waslike May in Cordova"?
6810	Had he ever known much else from those under him but incivility and rebellion?
6810	Had not this same Ovando refused to let you enter the harbor of San Domingo last year when the frightful hurricane was gathering?
6810	Had the brave Diego Mendez gone to the bottom?
6810	Here the deplorable business of kidnapping began again, and quite legitimately, the Spaniards thought, for were not the miserable creatures cannibals?
6810	How could men found homes and work when there were no wives and little ones to be housed and fed?
6810	How did Columbus happen to know that it would be wise to carry rubbish along with him?
6810	How, we ask ourselves as we sit in our comfortable, solid houses, did they endure it?
6810	If gold could do all that, who would not try to possess it?
6810	If, as he had probably begun to hope, the western path might ultimately lead to India, why not at once adopt that important name?
6810	Now, when you see this from the Spaniards''point of view, can you not understand their indignation?
6810	What are you going to do about it?"
6810	What had happened meanwhile to lift him out of misery and disgrace?
6810	What has the Admiral been doing since the Palos bells pealed out their joyous welcome to him?
6810	What should he write to the sovereigns waiting for news?
6810	Who could tell when the Moorish war would end?
6810	Why, he groaned, had_ his_ India been so barren of riches?
6810	Why, he must have asked himself, should he, no longer young, wait to see?
6810	Why, then, if it brought all these arts and inventions and discoveries, do we not call it the birth, instead of the_ re_-birth?
6810	Why?
6810	Yet why, we ask, should Columbus have been so astonished?
6810	can you not realize that your work is done now, for better or worse?
8519	How many may accompany me?
8519	Villejo,said he, mournfully,"whither are you taking me?"
8519	What power,exclaimed she indignantly,"has the admiral to give away my vassals?"
8519	3) exclaims,"Who can believe all that, he says of the city of Quinsai?
8519	Abraham was above an hundred years when he begat Isaac; and was Sarah youthful?
8519	But how was this message to be conveyed?
8519	Columbus, thinking that he had been in the very vicinity of Cathay, exclaims with sudden zeal,"Who will offer himself for this task?
8519	If so, how long were they to remain here, vainly looking for relief which was never to arrive?
8519	If that had really been the case, what motive could he have for concealing the fact?
8519	If this were not the case, why did not the ships arrive, or why did not Fiesco return, as had been promised?
8519	Might not this arise from the weakness and incapacity of the rulers?
8519	Need I tell you how deeply interesting and gratifying it has been to me?
8519	Or for David, whom, from being a shepherd, he made a king in Judea?
8519	What did he more for Moses, or for his servant David, than he has done for thee?
8519	What did he more for the great people of Israel when he led them forth from Egypt?
8519	What has become of the countless multitudes this fortress was intended to awe?
8519	What monarch would not rejoice to gain empire on such conditions?
8519	What then?
8519	What tie had he upon their fidelity stronger than the sacred obligations which they had violated?
8519	Who is he to be?
8519	Who will doubt that this light was from the holy Scriptures, illumining you as well as myself with rays of marvelous brightness?"
8519	Why should Colnmbus feel this strong interest in Genoa, had he been born in any of the other Italian states which have laid claim to him?
8519	Why should he, therefore, confer princely dignities and prerogatives for that which men were daily offering to perform gratuitously?
8519	and why, if they knew it, should they not proclaim it?
8519	do you speak the truth?"
8519	who hath afflicted thee so much, and so many times?--God, or the world?
8519	why art thou cast down?
42059	Is it just,said Diego,"that I should suffer for a son which I may never have?"
42059	To embark, Villejo? 42059 Villejo,"said the prisoner,"whither do you take me?"
42059	What authority had my viceroy to give my vassals to such ends?
42059	153; did he propose to those of Venice?
42059	154; did he leave a wife in Portugal?
42059	Are we sure that he did?
42059	Did the cartographers of that time have anything more than conjecture by which to run such a coast line?
42059	Did they not come from the Persian gulf, round the Golden Chersonesus, and so easterly, as he himself had in the reverse way tracked the very course?
42059	Had it ever been passed before?
42059	Had not the great discoverer fulfilled his mission when he unveiled a new world?
42059	Had the Admiral not discovered already the course of the ships which sought it?
42059	He might better have remembered the words of warning given to Baruch:"Seekest thou great things for thyself?
42059	He remembered that Josephus has described the getting of gold for the Temple of Jerusalem from the Golden Chersonesus, and was not this the very spot?
42059	How did he command this rich resource?
42059	If all this was found on the surface, what must be the wealth in the bowels of these astounding mountains?
42059	Is it such?
42059	Is that the truth?"
42059	Meanwhile, what was going on in the north, where Portugal was pushing her discoveries in the region already explored by Cabot?
42059	Rabida, Convent of, 154; at what date was Columbus there?
42059	The question which complicates the decision is: When did Columbus consider his sailor''s life to have ended?
42059	WAS COLUMBUS IN THE NORTH?
42059	WAS COLUMBUS IN THE NORTH?
42059	WAS SHAKESPEARE SHAPLEIGH?
42059	Was it a fancy or a deceit?
42059	Was it a torch carried from hut to hut, as Herrera avers?
42059	Was it not certain that something must be wrong, or these accusations would not go on increasing?
42059	Was it not that he was slipping easily down this wonderful declivity?
42059	Was it on either of the other vessels?
42059	Was it on some small, outlying island, as has been suggested?
42059	Was it on the low island on which, the next morning, he landed?
42059	Was it quite sure that the ability to govern it went along with the genius to find it?
42059	Was it the discovery of some of those against whom a royal prohibition of discovery was issued by the Catholic kings, September 3, 1501?
42059	Was it the result of one of the voyages of Vespucius, and was Varnhagen right in tracking that navigator up the east Florida shore?
42059	Was not Mangi the richest of the provinces that Sir John Mandeville had spoken of?
42059	Was the light on a canoe?
42059	Was this an honest statement?
42059	Was this coast in the Cantino map indeed not North American, but the coast of Yucatan, misplaced, as one conjecture has been?
42059	We may perhaps ask, Was Irving''s hero a deceiver, or was he mad?
42059	Were not these parrots which Columbus had exhibited such as Pliny tells us are in Asia?
42059	What is that source?
42059	What next?
42059	What were the discoveries of the Phoenicians to this?
42059	Where, then, was this Greenland?
42059	Why is it that we know no more of these voyages of the Cabots?
42059	[ Sidenote: Cabot in Seville?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Date of the voyage, 1494 or 1497?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Did Columbus hear of the saga stories?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Did Columbus land on Thule?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Did he exceed his powers?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Was Vespucius on this voyage?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Was the Florida coast known?]
42059	[ Sidenote: What is the coast north of Cuba?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Who discovered South America?]
42059	[ Sidenote: Who first landed on the southern main?]
27019	Are you feeling better, Martin Pinzon?
27019	But, it was so--"Sudden? 27019 But--""And believes the world is flat and if you sail far enough west you''ll fall off?"
27019	But_ why_, uncle?
27019	Columbus?
27019	Did n''t you know that papa sails tomorrow?
27019	Do n''t you see? 27019 Do n''t you,"he said,"do n''t you indeed?
27019	Does it hurt much?
27019	Drink too much, Martin Pinzon?
27019	Even if Columbus tells you different?
27019	Even if I give one set of orders and Columbus another?
27019	Important?
27019	Is that correct?
27019	My dear Mr. Jones,he said slowly, acidly,"do n''t you think we''ve had enough of fantasy?
27019	So you have spirit, do you? 27019 The Western Sea?
27019	Wait a minute,Danny said,"do n''t tell me they already had the funeral?"
27019	Want to talk about it?
27019	Were n''t you listening?
27019	Were you very close to him, Danny?
27019	What did you say?
27019	What does it do, uncle?
27019	What is it?
27019	What''s so funny?
27019	Why''s everyone laughing?
27019	Would you take orders from me?
27019	Yes, but--"And does n''t want to see anything happen to you?
27019	You mean, what he left me? 27019 You take orders from Columbus?"
27019	You''ll help us you mean?
27019	***** But why?
27019	*****"But why ca n''t I come back and see you?"
27019	All right?"
27019	And-- you know what ruins that faith?"
27019	Are you all set?"
27019	Are you going with him?"
27019	Are you this Don Pinzon?"
27019	Because I''ll be getting him up before the sun to--""Are you a sailing man too?
27019	But what are you going to do?
27019	Ca n''t you?"
27019	Columbus gasped,"What did you say?"
27019	Danny whispered fiercely,"Your father loves you very much?"
27019	Did you see Columbus land?
27019	Do n''t you think we ought to return to history?"
27019	Do you believe the way I have in mind?
27019	Do you believe the world to be round, little Nina?"
27019	Do you believe?
27019	Do you think your uncle left you anything-- well-- important?"
27019	Does it hurt much?"
27019	Eh, mates?"
27019	Eighteen?
27019	Faith in what?
27019	Faith not to believe in historical fairy tales?
27019	Faith to doubt when one ought to doubt?
27019	Funny, is n''t it, Martin?"
27019	How he would n''t let a soul near it, ever?
27019	I thought I''d at least get to see his--""His body?
27019	I--""You hear that?"
27019	If you know more or better history than the history books do, is n''t it your duty to tell us?"
27019	It''s probably not much more than a better mousetrap, but you want to believe it is, do n''t you?
27019	Know what it is?"
27019	Martin, tell me, do you believe the world is round?"
27019	Maybe-- at least you did n''t have to worship him as a hero just because he happened to discover... Now, what did he discover?
27019	Naturally, I''ll have to leave the house while you do so and I wo n''t be able to return until you tell me I can--""But why?"
27019	Now do you understand?
27019	Now, is it?
27019	Now, then, you know why you''re here?"
27019	On faith, you understand?
27019	Papa, do n''t you realize you''re sailing tomorrow?"
27019	Promise?"
27019	Right, Nina?"
27019	See what I mean?
27019	Seventeen?
27019	She said,"Then, then it''s no use?"
27019	So when you have a grand- nephew, see that his name''s Averill, understand?
27019	Sonny,"the lawyer asked abruptly,"how well did you know the old man?"
27019	There is nothing further, ca n''t you see?
27019	There were no surviving documents, so why should he?
27019	Think I want to fall over the edge?
27019	Try the trunk then?
27019	Twenty?
27019	Want me to read you the clause?"
27019	Want to try it?"
27019	Was n''t that the sort of faith Uncle Averill had in mind?
27019	Were you there?
27019	When they''re pretty as a rose, like you, who''s to care?"
27019	Why did he leave it to you?"
27019	Why do n''t you kind of make yourself scarce for a few years?"
27019	Wo n''t somebody help me?
27019	You get me?"
27019	You got to have this dream, see?
27019	You have been out on the Western Sea, as far as the Canary Islands, perhaps?"
27019	You know that contraption he had in the basement, do n''t you?
27019	You see, sonny?
27019	You see?"
27019	he thought, why should it surprise me?
8683	( Superior hosts o''er every canton wheel) Or how behold their wanton carnage spread, Himself stand idle and his country bleed?
8683	And does the God obscure his golden throne In mournful darkness for my slaughter''d son?
8683	And hast thou now, to stay the whelming flood, No son to offer to the furious God?
8683	And lurks no spot in that bright sun of thine?
8683	And on his Guide Columbus fixt his sight: Kind messenger of heaven, he thus began, Why this progressive laboring search of man?
8683	And when shall solid glory, pure and bright, Alone inspire us, and our deeds requite?
8683	And where has man''s fine form so perfect shone In tint or mould, in canvass or in stone?
8683	And why not lapse again?
8683	And why should we write at all, if not to benefit mankind?
8683	And why so distant rolls the bounteous main?
8683	And why, sweet Minstrel, from the harp of fame Withhold so long that once resounding name?
8683	At length, as thro disparting clouds they rise, And hills above them still obstruct the skies, While a dead calm o''er all the region stood?
8683	But ah, forbear to tell my stooping sire His darling hopes have fed a coward fire; Why should he know the tortures of the brave?
8683	But who that chief?
8683	But, Susan, why that tear?
8683	Can Europe''s realms, the seat of endless strife, Afford no trophies for the waste of life?
8683	Can monarchs there no proud applauses gain, No living laurel for their people slain?
8683	Can these be fashion''d on the social plan, Or boast a lineage with the race of man?
8683	Could their weak sires, unskill''d in human lore, Build the bold bark, to seek an unknown shore?
8683	Could thy dark fiend, that hides his blind abode, And cauldrons in his cave that fiery flood, Yield the rich fruits that distant nations find?
8683	Did not his Babylon exulting say, I sit a queen, for ever stands my sway?
8683	Does all this eloquence suspend the knife?
8683	Does no superior bribe contest her life?
8683	Dwells here the secret of thy midsea tomb?
8683	Dwells here the secret of thy midsea tomb?_ Book I.
8683	For stript of health, benumb''d thy vital flood, Thy muscles lax''d and decomposed thy blood, What is thy courage, man?
8683	Frazer in quest of glory seeks the field;-- False glare of glory, what hast thou to yield?
8683	From plains like ours, by holy demons fired?
8683	Greene views the tempest with collected soul, Arid fates of empires in his bosom roll; So small his force, where shall he lift the steel?
8683	Have thy brave people in the flames expired?
8683	He turn''d, and sorrowful besought the Power: Why sinks the scene, or must I view no more?
8683	How long, deluding phantom, wilt thou blind, Mislead, debase, unhumanize mankind?
8683	How then are young readers to be sensible of it?
8683	Indeed in what else should it be found?
8683	Is nothing sacred to thy venturous might?
8683	Must here the fame of that young world descend?
8683	Nor Belgia''s plains, so fertile made with gore, Hide heroes''bones nor feast the vultures more?
8683	On those scorch''d plains for ever must they lie, Their bones still naked to the burning sky?
8683	Or praise or punish or behold mankind?
8683	Or she be told the foes besiege the gate?
8683	Say, Palfrey, brave good man, was this thy doom?
8683	Shall our brave children find so quick their end?
8683	The Hero heard, and thus resumed the strain: Who led these wanderers o''er the dreary main?
8683	The howling storm, the holy truce of night, High tossing ice- isles crashing round thy side, Insidious rocks that pierce the tumbling tide?
8683	Think''st thou no dangerous deed the course attends, Alone, unaided by thy sire and friends?
8683	Thy pride to pamper, thy fair face to show; Dwells there no blemish where such glories shine?
8683	Traced I these deserts but to see thee fall?
8683	War sure hath ceased; or have my erring eyes Misread the glorious visions of the skies?
8683	When shall we be able to account for this fact?
8683	Where flee the glories of your absent Sun?
8683	Where shall we find them now?
8683	Where shall we trace him next, the migrant man, To try once more his meliorating plan?
8683	Where slept thy shaft of vengeance, O my God, When those fell tigers drank his sacred blood?
8683	Where the rent robes thy hapless mother made?
8683	Where then that proud preeminence of birth, Thy Moral Sense?
8683	Where then the promised grace?
8683	Where, my lost Rocha, rests thy lovely head?
8683	Who speaks of eloquence or sacred song, But calls on Greece to modulate his tongue?
8683	Who will say that the progress of society will stop short in the present stage of its career?
8683	Why fruitless sorrows bend him to the grave?
8683	Why should he cease to ward the coming fate?
8683	Why the wild woods for ever must they rove, Nor arts nor social joys their passions move?
8683	Will then my fair, at my returning hour, Forsake these wilds and hail a happier bower?
8683	Ye starry hosts, who kindle from his eye, Can you behold him in the western sky?
8683	_ Here is the wood and fire, but where is the lamb to sacrifice?_ Eponina with her children giving bread to her husband when in concealment.
8683	_ Say, Palfrey, brave good man, was this thy doom?
8683	and that their pretensions to a very high antiquity, which we have been used to think extravagant and ridiculous, are really not without foundation?
8683	and what yon purple tide?
8683	is this the whole we owe?
8683	must thy shame be told?
8683	that great communities will not discover a mode of arbitrating their disputes, as little ones have done?
8683	where the lasting gain?
29496	How,they thought,"was navigation possible in seas where the compass, that unerring guide, had lost its virtue?"
29496	My Dawn? 29496 Shall he perish?"
29496	What shall I say, brave Adm''ral, say, If we sight naught but seas at dawn?
29496	''Well, Sanchez of Segovia come and try; What seest?''
29496	And are we prepared to barter these hopes, this sublime moral empire, for conquests by force?
29496	And his reward?
29496	And that terrible day of dark despair, When Columbus, under the lowering sail, Sent out to the hidden lands his prayer?
29496	And these by vacant Wests and Wests increased-- One pain of space, with hollow ache on ache, Throbbing and ceasing not for Christ''s own sake?
29496	And when he reached Spain, he told the King and Queen,"That they may ask all the pilots who came with him, Where is Veragua?
29496	Brave Adm''ral, say but one good word; What shall we do when hope is gone?"
29496	Brave Adm''ral, speak; what shall I say?"
29496	But inferior in what?
29496	But what can we make of"Tallarte"?
29496	But what shall we say of the man who carried Christ across the stormy terrors of the unknown sea?
29496	But where is he, that light whose radiance glows, The loadstone of succeeding mariners?
29496	COLUMBA CHRISTUM- FERENS-- WHAT''S IN A NAME?
29496	Can volume, pillar, pile, preserve thee great?
29496	Did not Columbus study and read and think, and then go out and load his ship with slaves?
29496	Do we not remember the olden tale?
29496	Do you ask how you are to get them?
29496	Else to what end does the world go on, and why was America discovered?
29496	Given thee the keys of the great ocean- sea?
29496	How if it never break?
29496	How many were there of them?
29496	I prithee stand and gaze about the sea; What seest?''
29496	In national spirit and patriotic achievement?
29496	Inferior in deeds of zeal and valor for the Church?
29496	Inferior in enterprise?
29496	Inferior in science and letters and the arts?
29496	Is it I who have deceived thee or the world?
29496	Is it by any means probable he would have persevered had he not possessed that earnest enthusiasm which was characteristic of the great discoverer?
29496	Is it even improbable?
29496	Is it likely that$ 56 would have been the pension settled upon a lady of such rank?
29496	Is not our own history one witness and one record of what it can do?
29496	Is this the vision of romantic fancy?
29496	Now, is it possible that monarchy, plutarchy, or any other archy, can long withstand this curriculum of instruction?
29496	Oh, who shall lightly say that fame Is nothing but an empty name?
29496	Oh, who shall lightly say that fame Is nothing but an empty name?
29496	Or is it unimportant how many foggy days there are in his life?
29496	Search creation round, where can you find a country that presents so sublime a view, so interesting an anticipation?
29496	Set thee in light till time shall be no more?
29496	Shall not that New World greet him as the Christ- bearer?
29496	Shall that sea, on the morrow, with pitiless waves, Fling his corse on that shore which his patient eye craves?
29496	Shall we be ashamed of so glorious a rank?
29496	Shall we be indifferent to the effects which our religion may work in the world?
29496	Shall we be regardless of our duty as creatures of the Divine Power and recipients of His goodness?
29496	Shall we leave those wide regions to despair and anarchy?
29496	So thought Palmyra; where is she?
29496	Star?
29496	Teems not each ditty with the glorious tale?
29496	Then some one standing by my grave will say,"Behold the bones of Christopher Colòn,"Ay, but the chains, what do_ they_ mean-- the chains?"
29496	This day, the 4th of July, and all which it stands for-- did it not give us these?
29496	Thou hast done so well for men, that men Cry out against thee; was it otherwise With mine own son?"
29496	Was anything wanting to perfect him in the unresisting gentleness of the dove?
29496	Was he alone in his piracy?
29496	Was not the scholar Columbus part pirate?
29496	Was there anything dove- like about Columbus?
29496	Was this Charleston harbor or Hampton Roads?
29496	Was this his face, and these the finding eyes That plucked a new world from the rolling seas?
29496	What came ye forth to see?
29496	What fairer prospect of success could be presented?
29496	What hath he said?
29496	What is the emancipation of woman but the filtration of old thought?
29496	What manner of man was this Columbus, this admiral of the seas and lord of the Indies, who gave to Castille and Leon a new world?
29496	What means more adequate to accomplish the sublime end?
29496	What more is necessary than for the people to preserve what they themselves have created?
29496	What treasure found he?
29496	What was in that atmosphere of the fifteenth century which could have given peculiar thoughts to Columbus alone?
29496	When we reflect on what has been, and is, how is it possible not to feel a profound sense of the responsibilities of this Republic to all future ages?
29496	Who has not seen in imagination, when looking into the sunset sky, the gardens of the Hesperides, and the foundation of all those fables?
29496	Who shall say for what purpose mysterious Providence may not have designed her?
29496	Who were the strange people who met him at the end of his long and perilous voyage?
29496	Why allow the noxious weeds of Eastern politics to take root in your new soil, when by a little effort you might keep it pure?
29496	Why can not we rise to noble conceptions of our destiny?
29496	Why do rudely and ill things which need to be done well, seeing that the welfare of your descendants may turn upon them?
29496	Why do we not feel that our work as a nation is to carry freedom, religion, science, and a nobler form of human nature over this continent?
29496	Why not make its outlines and beginnings worthy of these destinies, the thought of which gilds your hopes and elevates your purposes?"
29496	Why sacrifice the present to the future, fancying that you will be happier when your fields teem with wealth and your cities with people?
29496	Why should we be specially interested?
29496	Why should we?
29496	Why, in your hurry to subdue and utilize nature, squander her splendid gifts?
29496	Why, then, seek to complete in a few decades what the other nations of the world took thousands of years over in the older continents?
29496	Will not man grow to greater perfection intellectually as well as physically under these influences?
29496	Would a census have strengthened them to resist the threatened tide of invaders that the coming of Columbus heralded?
29496	Would they have lived any longer if they had been counted?
29496	Wouldst leap ashore, Heart?
29496	You have no heart?
29496	[ Illustration: THE WEST INDIES] And Christopher--_Christum- ferens_--the Christ- bearer?
29496	can a nation die?
29496	my Dawn?
29496	o''er- defalking to thine crew Against thyself, thyself far overfew To front yon multitudes of rebel scheming?''
29496	or shall we basely desert our place and throw away our distinction?
29496	people who walk with their heels upward and their heads hanging down?"
29496	shall the world- linking sea, He traced, for the future his sepulcher be?
36406	A cat may look at a king, Señor Conde; and why not a mariner on his passenger? 36406 An Indian princess, say''st thou?
36406	An acquaintance of the court, Señor?
36406	And Don Luis de Bobadilla was ever with the admiral?
36406	And am I a hypocrite, Marchioness? 36406 And are these obstacles getting to be more serious than we could hope, Señor?"
36406	And by what lucky chance have I obtained thy services, good Sancho, in this great expedition?
36406	And can it be necessary, Luis, when thou art the danger apprehended?
36406	And do all your followers, noble admiral, act under the same guidance?
36406	And do you partake of all this hope, Don Christopher?
36406	And dost thou really mean that persons of this high rank have returned with the admiral?
36406	And doth the learned Tuscan say aught of the riches of those countries?
36406	And how is this to be done, Mercedes? 36406 And in what can all this harm thy husband?
36406	And in what manner wilt thou open the acquaintance, son?
36406	And is this true?
36406	And thou believest that nobles and cavaliers can be found willing to embark with this obscure Genoese, in his bold undertaking?
36406	And thou!--would this adventure win thee, too, to view me with kindness?
36406	And thou, Pepe? 36406 And thou, my aunt-- thou, Mercedes-- dost thou, too, believe me capable of this?"
36406	And were thy father and thy mother called Mundo, also? 36406 And what are thy feelings, daughter?
36406	And what hath Guinea, or what have the mines of the Portuguese to do with this western voyage? 36406 And when thou didst send it back to me, now within the week, how was it thy wish to be understood?"
36406	And who may this misguided youth be, Señora?
36406	And why art thou so particular in desiring this favor in behalf of these poor islanders, and that, too, Sancho, at the expense of thine own bones?
36406	And why not as respects the honor, friend Sancho?
36406	And why should I do this, good woman?
36406	And why should I give this information to thee, young man, more than to another?
36406	And why should I return to a hesitating, cold, and undecided court?
36406	And yet, Señor, thou enterest on it with the confidence of a man certain of reaching his haven?
36406	And you, Don Christopher, where do you place the caravels, since there is no motive to conceal the truth?
36406	And you, too, Señor?
36406	Are not my children thine, Fernando? 36406 Are the joyful tidings that my people bring me true?"
36406	Are there fresh tidings from the unfortunate and deluded Hebrews, Lord Archbishop?
36406	Art certain of this?
36406	Art certain, Sancho? 36406 Art certain, St. Angel, that the Genoese hath gone for France?"
36406	Art thou a compelled adventurer, on this service?
36406	Art thou a seaman, and disregardest thy course, in this heedless manner?
36406	Art thou in so great haste to quit a banquet such as Spain hath not often seen, except in the palaces of her kings?
36406	Art thou serious in demanding these terms, Señor?
36406	Art thou uneasy, friend Sancho, that thou puttest thy question thus earnestly?
36406	Beatriz, what meaneth this? 36406 But hast thou no feeling for success-- no gratitude to God for this vast discovery?
36406	But thou thinkest well of his project; or have I mistaken thy meaning?
36406	But thou thinkest-- thou feelest, Mercedes, that it was in fear of me that Her Highness extorted the vow?
36406	But where is Harold? 36406 But, blessed Mercedes,_ you_ never imputed to me this act of deception and unfaithfulness?"
36406	By whom, young Lord?
36406	Call ye this stagnant and immovable?
36406	Call you this a court, Señor? 36406 Can any think them otherwise, Señora?
36406	Can it be otherwise? 36406 Can this be so, Beatriz?"
36406	Can this be so?
36406	Can this be true?
36406	Can this mean treachery, Señor?
36406	Canst thou explain this, Beatriz?
36406	Canst thou tell them, and let me know their numbers?
36406	Canst thou think of naught else, son, that should not lie hid from before the keeper of all consciences?
36406	Caonabo?
36406	Christian marry first lady he love best?
36406	Christian no marry heathen?--Christian marry Christian?
36406	Conde de Llera, dost thou admit, or dost thou deny, that thou art the husband of the Lady Ozema?
36406	Daughter,said Isabella, who frequently addressed those she loved by this endearing term,"thou hast not forgotten thy freely- offered vow?"
36406	Daughter- Marchioness,asked the queen, turning as usual to her tried friend, in her doubts,"what thinkest thou of this weighty matter?
36406	Did he give thee his name, good Sancho?
36406	Did they seem warlike, and made they any pretensions to a right to interrupt our voyage?
36406	Didst thou attend to what he said, touching the gentleness and mildness of the inhabitants? 36406 Didst thou duly explain to Señor Colon, the nature of our proposals, Lord Archbishop?"
36406	Do I not, also, dear aunt, in my attachment to thy ward? 36406 Do I not?
36406	Do the English put the largest of their sails uppermost on the masts?
36406	Do the learned favor the man''s notions?
36406	Do these Indians eat flesh as remarkable as their bread?
36406	Do they not see that these shadows are round, and do they not know that a shadow which is round can only be cast by a body that is round?
36406	Do you believe us in danger, Señor?
36406	Do you still remark those unaccountable changes in the needles, Señor?
36406	Don Luis, dost thou confirm this statement, and also assert that thy gift was made solely with this object?
36406	Dost think, Sancho, that Cipango is as large as the admiral hath got the island on the chart?
36406	Dost thou acknowledge this, Doña Mercedes?
36406	Dost thou bring any tidings from Ferro?
36406	Dost thou detect aught fluttering in the rigging, Luis?
36406	Dost thou fancy, Pepe, that thy love can keep those flowers in bloom, until the good caravel shall recross the Atlantic?
36406	Dost thou find our female friends terrified by this appalling scene, son Luis?
36406	Dost thou know one Sancho Mundo, a common seaman of this crew?
36406	Dost thou not know, fellow, that I, too, am a father, and that the dearest objects of a father''s hopes are left behind me, also? 36406 Dost thou not perceive, Don Luis, the grave and dejected countenances of the mariners, and hearest thou the wailings that are rising from the shore?"
36406	Dost thou say, father, that the man hath long been in Spain?
36406	Dost thou see him, Sancho?
36406	Dost thou see in it aught to satisfy thee that we are approaching the Indies, and that our time of trial draweth rapidly to an end?
36406	Dost thou think it hath limits?
36406	Dost thou think it is so, Pepe? 36406 Doth Martin find any to believe this silly notion?"
36406	For the last time, Señor,he said,"I ask if you still insist on these unheard- of terms?"
36406	For what reason hast thou so suddenly paused in thy course?
36406	From all of which you infer that the world is round, wherein we are to find the certainty of our success?
36406	Hadst thou a Señor de Muños of thy party?
36406	Harkee, Pepe; is not the queen of Castile our mistress? 36406 Hast looked for Pepe, this morning, among our people?"
36406	Hast thou bethought thee of Doña Beatriz Enriquez? 36406 Hast thou lost all interest in Colon?"
36406	Hast thou never stood before a priest with her, nor in any manner abused her guileless simplicity?
36406	Hast thou not heard of shoals so wide that a caravel could never find its way out of them, if it once entered?
36406	Hast thou nothing to say, Señor de Muños, in support of our petition? 36406 Hast thou seen Don Andres de Cabrera?"
36406	Hast thou truly brought away with thee the princess thou hast named?
36406	Hast thou, then, wronged her, and given her a right to think that thou didst mean wedlock?
36406	Hast thou_ concealed_ aught? 36406 Hath aught been received, that cometh from that quarter?"
36406	Hath he not had Luis de St. Angel of his side?
36406	Hath he the aspect of a messenger from the court?
36406	Hath he the gold to prefer so long a suit?
36406	Hath the Moor another kingdom of which to be despoiled,she asked;"or would the receiver of the church''s revenues have us war upon the Holy See?"
36406	Have I done harm, where I most intended good? 36406 Have I not often seen him with his visor up, and followed him, time and again, to the charge?"
36406	Have I not wasted years in striving to urge it to its own good? 36406 Have I your leave, noble admiral, to push ahead in the Pinta, that our eyes may first be greeted with the grateful sight of Asia?
36406	Have any here ever navigated the Mediterranean, or visited the island of which Don Ferdinand, the honored consort of our lady the queen, is master?
36406	Have none of them ever observed the shadows cast by the earth, in the eclipses of the moon?
36406	Have none seen the Pinta?
36406	Have these blackguards found out the true value of hawk''s- bells, after all, and do they mean to demand the balance due them?
36406	Have we gained aught by changing our course in this direction? 36406 Holy Franciscan!--why wilt thou not mention the names of one or two of these?"
36406	How far do you really think us from land, Señor Almirante? 36406 How is this, Sancho of the ship- yard- gate?"
36406	How know we that the cavalier you mention, Señora, may not have his weeks of penance and his hours of prayer?
36406	How know''st thou this, Beatriz?
36406	How now, holy archbishop,--demanded Isabella--"doth thy new flock vex thy spirit, and is it so very hard to deal with an infidel?"
36406	I am Isabella, the queen,she said, prising, without any further suspicion of danger;"and thou art a messenger from Colon, the Genoese?"
36406	I have erred as a man, father; but do not my confessions already meet those sins?
36406	I have heard much of one Pinzon,added Luis,"who went forth as pilot of a caravel in the voyage; what hath become of him?"
36406	I hope you do not distrust my nerves, Don Christopher, that this matter is kept a secret from me?
36406	I shall inquire into this of the illustrious admiral; but, next to this star, Master Sancho, what deem you most worthy of observation? 36406 I wish to inquire if thou wouldst consent to become the wife of Don Luis de Bobadilla?"
36406	If Her Highness is disposed to favor this Colon,he asked,"why hath the measure been so long delayed?"
36406	If the earth be round,continued Don Luis, with a musing air,"what preventeth all the water from flowing to the lower parts of it?
36406	If thou hast this faith in thy leader, what other distrust can give thee concern?
36406	If we will obey three days longer, Señor, will you then turn toward Spain, should no land be seen?
36406	In God''s time, my good-- how art thou named?
36406	In the name of all the devils, Roderique, of what art thou thinking, that thou likenest this knave to a young noble? 36406 In what direction, good Martin Alonzo?"
36406	In what way could this thing be, unless the earth were round-- the Indies lying east, and not west of us?
36406	In which quarter dost thou perceive this welcome neighbor?
36406	Is Ozema Christian now?
36406	Is Señor Don Christopher at his post, as usual?
36406	Is he of thy watch, or sleepeth he with his fellows of the relief below?
36406	Is it known that islands have ever produced this effect on the needle?
36406	Is it, then, known who my nephew really is? 36406 Is not this a most wonderful reward, for efforts so small, my husband and love?"
36406	Is not this the course of things, Señor, throughout the earth? 36406 Is that a hummock of land?"
36406	Is that truth established? 36406 Is the Señor Gutierrez equally enlightened in this manner?
36406	Is there aught of interest in that quarter?
36406	Is there aught wonderful in this, my worthy friend? 36406 Is there no hope, noble admiral?
36406	Is this Cipango known to produce spices, or aught that may serve to uphold a sinking treasury, and repay us for so much cost and risk?
36406	Is this cross, then, held so common, that it hath gotten to be the subject of discourse even for men of thy class?
36406	Is this just to Ozema? 36406 Is this lady a Christian princess, Sancho?"
36406	Is this quite honest, Sancho, to rob an Indian of his gold, in exchange for a bauble that copper so easily purchaseth? 36406 Is this so, Don Christopher?"
36406	Is this so, Señor?
36406	Is this true? 36406 Is this young Indian, then, so very perfect, Beatriz, that thy ward need fear or envy her?
36406	Keep they close in with the island, or stretch they off to seaward?
36406	Know ye the distance that lieth between us and Ferro, that ye come to me with this blind and foolish request? 36406 Know you any thing of the rare birds the admiral exhibited to their Highnesses to- day?"
36406	Knowest thou the stones?--was it of turquoise, embellished with the finest gold?
36406	May I presume to ask if I am meant in these severe remarks?
36406	Mercedes, thou canst not deny that thou believest Her Highness extorted that vow in dread of me?
36406	Mercedes?
36406	Nay, I will not be denied-- hast thou any such notion as this, which the wife of Pepe hath so plainly avowed?
36406	Nay, what more can I say, my beloved mistress? 36406 No answer, daughter?
36406	Not so, my poor benighted girl--"What benighted?"
36406	Now, Gondarino, what can you put on now That may deceive us? 36406 Of whom else should we be speaking, or to whom else allude?
36406	Of whom speakest thou?
36406	Princes and princesses!--What mean you, friend, by such high- sounding terms?
36406	Pronounce what sea, what shore is this? 36406 Sancho, art thou, too, of the party of these mutineers?
36406	Saving his life!--the life of Luis-- of Don Luis de Bobadilla-- an Indian princess?
36406	Seest thou aught unusual, westward? 36406 Seest thou that dark, gloomy pile, which is heaving up out of the darkness, here at the south and west of us?"
36406	Señores,he said,"is there one here of sufficient expertness to cause this egg to stand on its end?
36406	Speak-- art thou wedded to Luis de Bobadilla, or not?
36406	Still, she hath a name?
36406	Tell me,answered the youth, as if disdaining to be questioned himself--"who holds this borough?
36406	That Luis''God?
36406	The very same, Señor,answered he above, with a mollified tone:"but what can a set of travelling traders know of His Excellency?
36406	Then how happened it that thou sawest the smaller object before the larger?
36406	Then thou agreest with this Colon, and thinkest the earth round?
36406	Then you think, Señor, that we may really expect land, ere many days?
36406	Then, Señor, what will there be to prevent the doblas of that country from falling off into the air, leaving us our journey for our pains?
36406	Then, hast thou letters? 36406 Thou art a Christian, Sancho, and hast a desire to aid in carrying the cross among the heathen?"
36406	Thou comest from Colon, I say?
36406	Thou comest not out upon the sea, Mercedes, contrary to thine own wishes?
36406	Thou hast long known this Martin Alonzo, Don Luis de Bobadilla?
36406	Thou hast well considered, Don Fernando, the treaty of marriage, and accepted cheerfully, I trust, all of its several conditions?
36406	Thou hast, then, none of these unsuitable and unseamanlike apprehensions?
36406	Thou know''st me, knave? 36406 Thou knowest the queen, holy monk?"
36406	Thou thinkest his designs, then, great, Daughter- Marchioness?
36406	Thou thinkest, then, he will not be apt to know me again?
36406	Thou wilt say nothing of this, Sancho?
36406	Thou wilt, at least, prove discreet?
36406	Thou would''st not have me understand, father, that a man can walk on his head-- and that, too, with the noble member in the air? 36406 Thou, then, thinkest thyself, truant, every way worthy to be the husband of Mercedes de Valverde?"
36406	Thou? 36406 To whom speak ye in this shameless manner, graceless knaves?"
36406	Viceroy over what?
36406	Was this altogether discreet, Don Christopher, or as one prudent as thou shouldst have consented to?
36406	Well, be it so; and why should a Bobadilla be proscribed by even a Queen of Castile?
36406	What certainty have I that this condition will be respected?
36406	What do you, then, take this light to signify, Don Christopher?
36406	What has brought the Señor St. Angel and the Señor Quintanilla, as suitors, so early to my presence?
36406	What hast thou thought of the chart I sent thee three days since, good Martin Alonzo?
36406	What hath been said?
36406	What have I to gain by the destruction of thy husband, or by the destruction of any of his comrades?
36406	What is the name of this princess, and whence doth she come?
36406	What is there that the Conde de Llera can have to say to one like me, that_ thou_ mayest not hear?
36406	What meaneth this haste, good Martin Alonzo?
36406	What now, Martin Alonzo?
36406	What now, good Vicente Yañez?
36406	What protect?
36406	What thing a right line is,--the learned know; But how availes that him, who in the right Of life and manners doth desire to grow? 36406 What weightier than this can be found?
36406	What will you, Señor Christoval? 36406 What would he then have thought had he known the truth, of which, young count, even thou art ignorant?"
36406	What would ye?
36406	What would you, Señora?
36406	What wouldst thou, good Martin Alonzo?
36406	Where cross? 36406 Where cross?"
36406	Where is Colon?
36406	Whither goest thou, in this hurry, Don Luis?
36406	Whither hath he been?
36406	Whither hath the Señor Colon sped?
36406	Whither, Luis?
36406	Whither,''midst falling dew, While glow the heavens with the last steps of day, Far, through their rosy depths, dost thou pursue Thy solitary way?
36406	Who has seen aught of Martin Alonzo within the hour?
36406	Who hath aided him more than thyself, friend Luis?
36406	Who is that person?
36406	Who knoweth, Señor Gutierrez? 36406 Why not, daughter?
36406	Why, then, didst thou see the upper sails of the Englishman first?
36406	Would it make aught different in thy opinions and feelings, young man, were I to answer no?
36406	Wouldst thou aught with me, Sancho?
36406	You have seen her, Señor, and can say whether she be not worthy to occupy the minds of all the youth of Spain?
36406	Your Highness-- can a Christian contract marriage with one that is yet unbaptized?
36406	_ Here_, say''st thou, Marchioness? 36406 A Castilian thyself, dost_ thou_, too, really think one of thy kingdom better than one of Genoa?
36406	Am I to land you, lady?"
36406	Am I to understand, Mercedes, it is thy wish that I should make one of the adventurers?"
36406	Am I, then, never to be believed-- never again to be happy?
36406	And are not subjects-- true and lawful subjects, I mean, like thee and me-- are not such subjects worthy of being the queen''s countrymen?
36406	And if round, how can a vessel that hath descended the side of the earth for days, ever return?
36406	And is not this, Don Luis, a most heavenly sight?
36406	And then the benefits that will flow on Castile and Aragon-- are they not incalculable?
36406	And thou, Pepe, what dost thou find in those flowers to draw thy attention so early from all these wonders?"
36406	And wert thou not struck with the simple, confiding aspects of those he hath brought with him?
36406	Angel?"
36406	Are feigned feelings of more repute with the queen and thyself, than real feelings?
36406	Are many persons acquainted with his secret?"
36406	Are there really a Prince Mattinao, and a Princess Ozema his sister, and have both accompanied the admiral to Spain?"
36406	Are they not such as becometh their Highnesses to accept on bended knees, and with many thanks?"
36406	Beatriz, thou dost agree with me, and it can not find an apology for this recreant knight, even though he were once the pride of thy house?"
36406	Behold!--dost thou remark that further sign of the warring of the elements?"
36406	Bethink thee well-- did he mention no other name to thee?"
36406	But didst thou say that thou wast_ known_ to him?"
36406	But doth your correspondent, Señora, say aught of what hath become of the graceless lover?"
36406	But thou hast been over sea, and may have observed something of this?"
36406	But what are gravity and decorum, if sustained by an inflated pride and inordinate rapacity?
36406	But what are the tidings of the Pinta, thine own vessel?
36406	But what can I do against this tempest?"
36406	But what is thy will, friend, that thou seemest in waiting for me, to disburden thyself of something?
36406	But what meaneth all this movement on deck?
36406	But what more hast thou to offer concerning my suitors?"
36406	But you, Señor Don Christopher, did you deem yourself an agent of heaven in this expedition?"
36406	But, Señor, have you thought maturely on the advantages that are to accrue to the sovereigns, should they sustain you in this undertaking?"
36406	But, touching this Ozema-- can I see her, Beatriz?"
36406	But, who is the maid, in whom thy feelings seem to take so deep, although I question if it be not an unrequited, interest?"
36406	CHAPTER V."Who hath not proved how feebly words essay To fix one spark of beauty''s heavenly ray?
36406	Can I trust thee now, to keep the ship on her course, or must I send for another mariner to relieve the helm?"
36406	Can good happen to one, without its equally befalling the other?
36406	Can it be, de Ojeda, that they have met in some of their earlier nautical wanderings?"
36406	Can we put credit in thy words?"
36406	Can you tell us what hath befel the Señor Christoval Colon, the Genoese navigator, with whom, they inform me, you have some intimacy?"
36406	Canst thou account for it by any wandering inclination, Lady of Moya?"
36406	Could''st thou, Luis, see with indifference the proceedings of one thou hast known from childhood, and esteemed as a friend?"
36406	Did I ever fail to show my preference for thee when we were boy and girl, in all the sports and light- hearted enjoyments of that guileless period?"
36406	Did I not tell thee that I went at the bidding of an angel?"
36406	Did that vagabond, Sancho, dare to wound thy ear, Mercedes, with an insinuation that touched the strength or the constancy of my love for thee?"
36406	Didst ever see a calm so profound, that the water left a straight circle on the horizon?
36406	Didst not notice the capes, and bays, and headlands, all laid down as plainly as on any other well- known coast?
36406	Didst thou bethink thee, to intercede again with the admiral, to do all service to Mattinao, on reaching Española?"
36406	Didst thou not remark, friend Luis, as we passed through the streets, that divers Spaniards pointed at me, as the object of scorn?"
36406	Didst thou not swear to thy fellows, that thou hadst often seen this deviation before; ay, even on as many as twenty occasions?"
36406	Do I hear aright?"
36406	Do they savor of the terms that have already been in discussion between us?"
36406	Dost fancy him a Guzman, or a Mendoza, in disguise, that thou speakest thus of chivalry?"
36406	Dost not hear angry and threatening words from the mouths of the troublesome ones?"
36406	Dost not see, that the men who gave us most concern, on account of their discontent, are now the loudest in their applause?"
36406	Dost really think thy ward would overlook the want of preparation and time?"
36406	Dost think Cathay much more remote than Cyprus, Señor Almirante?"
36406	Dost think Pepe would have married a Moorish girl?"
36406	Dost thou not fear to offend the admiral?"
36406	Dost thou not go forth, on this great voyage, carrying with thee more of our hopes than of our fears?"
36406	Dost thou not know that we churchmen are not permitted to betray the secrets of the confessional, or to draw comparisons between penitents?
36406	Dost thou wish, in truth, to sail with the admiral, Pepe?"
36406	Dost thou, too, think the services of the Genoese can not be bought at too high a price?"
36406	Doth not thy discretion rebuke thy indiscretion in this matter, Lord Admiral?"
36406	Doth the man really propose to venture out into the broad Atlantic, and even to cross it to some distant and unknown land?"
36406	Else, why hath the Moor so long been permitted to rule in Spain?
36406	Haply, thou may''st know that illustrious heiress?"
36406	Hast thou any real idea of the length of the road we have come?"
36406	Hast thou any such love for Don Luis as would induce thee to forget thine own country, and to adopt his in its stead?"
36406	Hast thou ever expressed a wish, that I have not proved an eager desire to see it accomplished?"
36406	Hast thou not seen in all my looks-- all my acts-- all my motives-- a desire to please thee, and thee alone, lovely Mercedes?
36406	Hast thou so forgotten thy duty as to come with this language to thy commander?
36406	Hath Doña Beatriz ever exercised a tithe of thy power over me, and hast thou ever failed to tame even my wildest and rashest humors?"
36406	Hath aught justifiable occurred to warrant this change of feeling?"
36406	Hath she been finally put into a condition to buffet the Atlantic?"
36406	Hath this princess attendants befitting her rank and dignity?"
36406	Hath thy discourse been of aught but love, since thou hast known and cared for me?"
36406	Have I Her Highness''scruples to overcome, as well as those of my cold- hearted and prudish aunt?"
36406	Have I not loved thee since thou and I were children?
36406	Have I your Highness''permission to inquire into the affair, myself?"
36406	Have we been thus deceived, and has so much evil been said of the admiral and his motives, wrongfully?"
36406	Have we made all sure in the caravel?"
36406	Have ye more strange illusions, yet more mists, Through which the weak eye may be led to error?
36406	Have you entirely forgotten our Genoese admiral, Don Fernando?"
36406	How and when did Luis we d thee, Ozema?"
36406	How fareth the Lady of Valverde, and when will she deign to reward thy constancy and love?"
36406	How go matters with Colon-- and when is he like to quit the court?"
36406	How is it, that we have any seas at all?
36406	How long is it that your Highness holdeth court, and giveth receptions, past the hour of midnight?"
36406	How stand thy people affected on taking leave of the land?"
36406	I take it, Señor, your Excellency would not willingly exchange the castle of Llera for the palace of this Great Cacique?"
36406	I think, friend Sancho, I may count on thee as a true and faithful follower, even in extremity?"
36406	I trust thou hast none of this silly apprehension?"
36406	If he succeed, who so great as he?
36406	If he succeed, will not the discovery eclipse all others that have been made since the creation of the world?
36406	If there were honor and profit in success, what would there be in failure?
36406	If this expedition end as we trust, all who engage in it will be honored and advanced; and why not I, as well as another?"
36406	If thou hast never felt otherwise, why was the cross that I gave thee at parting, bestowed on another?"
36406	In matters of the church, now, its interests being entrusted to a ministry, what have the unlearned and ignorant to say of its affairs?
36406	In the one case, he is too great and exalted to heed idle words; and in the other, what is there too bad for a Castilian to tell him?"
36406	In what, then, dost thou differ from me, my son being also without a mother''s care?"
36406	Is Doña Isabella, too, my enemy?
36406	Is all thou hast said about the princes and princesses true?"
36406	Is it more preferable to leave another arbitress of thy fate, than to exercise that office for thyself?
36406	Is it not a most curious dish to taste of?"
36406	Is it not his besetting sin to think good of himself, and evil of his neighbor?"
36406	Is it not the noble Count of Treviño?"
36406	Is it that thou repentest embarking, or dost thou merely muse on the charms of thy mistress?"
36406	Is not my very choice, in some sort, a pledge of the truth and justice of my feelings in these particulars?"
36406	Is not the value of a thing to be settled by what it will bring in the market?
36406	Is poverty a crime at Palos?"
36406	Is the name of the lady, also, given in your letter?"
36406	Is the princess really of sufficient beauty to supplant a creature as lovely as the Doña Mercedes?"
36406	Know''st thou her rank, Don Christopher, and the circumstances that have brought her to Spain?"
36406	Let me humbly demand my offence?"
36406	Look in this direction-- here, more on the vessel''s beam; seest thou aught uncommon?"
36406	Look to the west, and what dost see there?
36406	May it not be a hint to turn aside, and to look further in this quarter?"
36406	Monica,"calling her kindly and familiarly by name,"art thou a Christian?"
36406	Moreover, can one truly love the wife and not esteem the husband?
36406	No possible?"
36406	Now, we do know that the church, at some day, is to prevail throughout the whole world; and why may not this be the allotted time, as well as another?
36406	Or, are we to look upon this voyage as the only known way in which all these heathen could be rescued from perdition?"
36406	Or, is this name taken in order to give thee an occasion to show thy smartness, when questioned by thy officers?"
36406	Ought we so to humble ourselves as to recal this haughty Genoese?"
36406	Pepe, thou hast none of these weaknesses; but hast set thy heart on Cathay and a sight of the Great Khan?"
36406	See no cross-- up in heaven?--or where?
36406	Seest thou any sail, Luis, in that quarter of the ocean?"
36406	Señor Almirante, what else should I be?
36406	Señor, will you suffer Pepe to pass the night with his family, on condition that he goeth on board the Santa Maria in the morning?"
36406	Señor-- when?"
36406	Shall I punish him that merely depriveth his neighbor of some paltry piece of silver, and let him escape who woundeth the soul?
36406	Shall I then forget To urge the gloomy wanderer o''er the wave?
36406	Tell me of my nephew:--did he, too, write?
36406	The gulf, the rock of Salamis?"
36406	Then there is the bread that grows like a root-- what think_ you_ of that, Señor Don Luis?
36406	There has been no deception practised on this wild girl, to lead her into sin and misery?"
36406	This being so, and all who have voyaged on the ocean know it to be thus, why doth not the water flow into a level, here, on our own shores?
36406	Thou appearest to be friendly to the designs of this navigator, Colon?"
36406	Thou art the husband with whom I held discourse on the sands, the past evening, and thy name is Pepe?"
36406	Thou assentest to all that hath hitherto been said?"
36406	Thou canst conceive that, Pepe?"
36406	Thou hast frequently perused, and sufficiently conned the marriage articles, I trust?"
36406	Thou mightst mould me to all thy wishes"--"My wishes, Don Luis?"
36406	Thou rememberest the tourney that took place just before thou left us on thy last mad expedition?"
36406	Thou thinkest the Santa Maria will be in a state for service by the end of the month?"
36406	Thou wast journeying between Moguer and Palos, I think thou saidst, when this discourse was had with our acquaintance, the good Martin Alonzo?"
36406	Thou wilt bestow on us a few masses?"
36406	Thy name is Sancho Mundo, if I remember thy countenance?"
36406	Thy thoughts, of late, have been bent on matrimony?"
36406	Were those Polos pious missionaries, Señor?"
36406	What can ye say that may do satisfaction Both for her wronged honor and your ill?"
36406	What care I for gold, who already possess-- or shall so soon possess-- more than I need?
36406	What danger have we here?
36406	What diamonds, therefore, can I command?"
36406	What force in vessels and equipments do you demand, in order to achieve the great objects you expect, under the blessing of God, to accomplish?"
36406	What is thy opinion, daughter?"
36406	What know I of the wonders of Cipango, since Candia lieth in an opposite course?
36406	What sum doth Colon need, Señor de St. Angel, to carry on the adventure in a manner that will content him?"
36406	What then are all these humane arts, and lights, But seas of errors?
36406	What would prevent the sea from tumbling out of its bed, and falling on the Devil''s fires and extinguishing them?"
36406	When Her Highness gave her royal approbation of my success, in the last tourney, did I not seek thine eye, in order to ask if thou notedst it?
36406	When and where didst thou meet him before a priest?"
36406	When hath Mercedes de Valverde ever shown either, to_ thee_?"
36406	Where is the spring that is to furnish water to the parched lip, when our stores shall fail; and where the field to give us its bread and nourishment?
36406	Where is thy ward?"
36406	Who among ye dare use language so bold, to your admiral?"
36406	Who and what is the man?"
36406	Who are ye?
36406	Who is, or can be, exactly worthy of so much excellence?
36406	Who sitteth on the top- gallant yard, there, on watch for wonders ahead?"
36406	Why abandon a certainty for an uncertainty?
36406	Why dost thou thus regard the people beneath, with a steady eye and unwavering look?
36406	Why doth the princess couple the name of thy ward with that of Colon, with mine, and even with that of the young Count of Llera?"
36406	Why tell us that the earth is round, Señor, when our eyes show that it is flat?
36406	Wilt thou charge thyself with the introduction?"
36406	With thee-- the impatience produced by thy doubts excepted-- am I not ever tractable and gentle?
36406	Would it be exceeding discretion to ask who or what hath thus riveted thy gaze?"
36406	You can not seriously mean to maintain them?"
36406	You expect, Señor, to be intrusted with the command of the expedition, in your own person?"
36406	You speak of omens, Señor; are there any physical signs of our being near the land of Cathay?"
36406	_ Can_ this be true, Don Luis?"
36406	_ Thou_, surely, wilt not pretend that the earth is round?"
36406	and am I not the very youth to render such a creature happy?
36406	and must we quit all these cheering signs, without endeavoring to trace them to some advantageous conclusion?"
36406	and who art thou, that speakest up as sharply and as proudly as if thou wert a grandee?"
36406	demanded Luis;"are we really to expect the Indies as a consequence of these marine plants, or is the expectation idle?"
36406	dost thou own even that little in my favor?"
36406	exclaimed Ferdinand, in his quick, sharp voice:"dost thou think, Señor, of a crusade, as well as of discovering new regions?"
36406	exclaimed Mercedes, the color mounting to her pale cheek, and joy momentarily flashing in her eyes,"can this be so?"
36406	exclaimed Pinzon:"how is it known, or is it known at all, of a certainty?"
36406	he said;"is this the way you treat peaceful travellers; merchants, who come to ask hospitality and a night''s repose at your hands?"
36406	of thy son Fernando, who tarrieth, at this moment, in our convent of la Rabida?"
36406	said the great navigator;"thou lookest on this glorious scene as coolly as thou wouldst regard a street in Moguer, or a field in Andalusia?"
36406	she said;"ever ready to support him, and foremost in all hazards?"
36406	she said;"hath Colon so convinced thee, that thou art thus zealous in his behalf?"
36406	the greater for the less?
36406	to gain the approbation of her guardian?
36406	to put to sleep the vigilance of her friends?
36406	to the admiral and viceroy of thy sovereign, the Doña Isabella?"
36406	turning quickly to Luis de Bobadilla;"is it to serve God that you also go on this unusual voyage?"
36406	what hath called thee from thy position in the van, to this unseemly familiarity with the varlets in the rear?"
36406	what is the extension of the sway of Castile to me, who can never be its king?
36406	what meanest thou?
36406	why hath the Infidel, at this moment, possession of the Holy Sepulchre?
