42299 | --Where could he such examples see As in an artist''s gallery? |

47400 | Arrah, Pat, why did yez bring me here into this dark hole now? 47400 At what hour did Mr. Heartwell quit this office?" |
47400 | At what hour, madam? |
47400 | At what hour? |
47400 | At whose suit? |
47400 | But are you not soon to leave me, Frank? |
47400 | But do they serve the officers so? |
47400 | But if this destruction of tea is to go on, what are_ we_ to do? 47400 But in Ormond Street,"urged the magistrate,"there you possibly had better light and more time-- what took place there?" |
47400 | But why are you dressed thus? |
47400 | But( we asked in continuation of our conversation) how could you talk with Buonaparte-- did he speak English? |
47400 | By whose authority? |
47400 | Can these be clocks? |
47400 | Can you bear an introduction to one who is able to explain every particular? |
47400 | Can you grope your way? 47400 Cease, my friends,"continued Polverel;"know ye not that deputies have arrived from San Domingo to sit in the great council of the nation? |
47400 | Cork is it? 47400 D''ye think, sir, that the gods above Shave themselves with razors?" |
47400 | Danger, sir? |
47400 | Did Mr. Heartwell take his timepiece with him? |
47400 | Did n''t you heear me call vater afore? |
47400 | Did you ever hear of such a_ dreadful_ creature? |
47400 | Did you see any more of him, sir? |
47400 | Did you see wot a imperent grin the little beast give? |
47400 | Do n''t be foolish, Mary,said my host, scarcely less frightened;"what should it be but the old sign? |
47400 | Do they call them Jem Pansies? 47400 Do you intend to open the window?" |
47400 | Donder und blitzen-- what wo n''t do? |
47400 | Donder und vind-- where are the crew? |
47400 | Euphemius Hipson, my dear, you can assist me to another lump of sugar? |
47400 | Fools!--do you believe in such nonsense as ghosts and spectres? |
47400 | Has anything occurred? |
47400 | Hauled his wind out of this? |
47400 | Have I been dreaming? 47400 Have I the honour to address his worthy lady?" |
47400 | Have a slice o''cold pudden, Bill? |
47400 | Have n''t I been a faithful and thrue wife to yez? 47400 Have not the wretches denounced me, because of the money they owed me, and their base designs upon my child? |
47400 | Have you seen my tiger? |
47400 | Have you seen the tiger? 47400 Have you seen the tiger?" |
47400 | How-- what is this? |
47400 | I have put a plain and simple question to you, sir; will you oblige me with an answer? |
47400 | I knew I was right,said he:"Brady, do you know me now?" |
47400 | I suppose, sir, we had better_ get the man together_? |
47400 | I''ll have a bit of fish, waiter,--which do you recommend to day? |
47400 | I''m bless''d, young gentleman, but you do shake a cloth or two in the wind-- but there, what''s the odds so as you''re happy? 47400 In the event of your leaving, would the gentleman you have named feel disposed to part with it, think you?" |
47400 | In the name of wonder,said he,"what''s the matter?" |
47400 | In vain,she cried,"your powers, Take any shape you may; Are hearts less wise than flowers, That know the night from day?" |
47400 | Is it a fairy,said the Jewess,"or a household demon? |
47400 | Is there any strange watch or clock in the house that you know of? |
47400 | Is your tea agreeable, my dear Miss Dibsley? |
47400 | It must be some trick,said Mrs. Heartwell;"can you hear it distinctly?" |
47400 | Keep her right before it, my man; how''s her head now? |
47400 | Lately, why have n''t you heard? 47400 Mr. Heartwell has been heard of; but are you really able to endure whatever of joy or sorrow may betide--""Joy?--joy?" |
47400 | My dear fellow, I''m going out-- a particular engagement-- been kept in all the morning;--will Friday do? 47400 My dearest madam,_ you_ eat a sausage?" |
47400 | Now, Tim, who_ is_ that? 47400 Now, then, young imp, wot''s the damage?" |
47400 | Of course I must,replied the gentleman;"I can not expect you to trust me; what can I do? |
47400 | Of whom are you speaking? |
47400 | Of_ what_? |
47400 | Oh, what is this, Frank? |
47400 | Pray, Mr. Shipkins, do you remember the number of the coach in which Mr. Heartwell left here last night? |
47400 | Pray,said the magistrate, addressing the coachman,"had you sufficient light or opportunity to observe the person of the officer?" |
47400 | Shall we take possession of the land, in the name of his most Christian Majesty? |
47400 | Shipkins has been taken,said Mr. Wendover,"and he has confessed--?" |
47400 | Should you know the gentleman again? |
47400 | So when master said,''Well, Jacky, will you have any more pudding?'' 47400 So you''ve heard tell of that, have you?" |
47400 | That young gemman''s in a very good humour, ai n''t he, Tom? 47400 These, sir?" |
47400 | Vant a cab, sir? |
47400 | Vhere''s shall I drive, sir? |
47400 | Was Mr. Heartwell here yesterday? |
47400 | Was it all a delusion? |
47400 | Was the officer sober? |
47400 | Wel sie valtz, Fraulein? |

47400 | What shall it be-- my surtout coat? 47400 What sort of a man was he?" |
47400 | What was that? |
47400 | What write you, troubled spirit? |
47400 | What''s that? |
47400 | What, a real tiger, yer honour? 47400 What, what has he confessed?" |
47400 | What-- what is it? |
47400 | What? |
47400 | What? |
47400 | Where have you been, scoundrels? |
47400 | Where is he, Ben, where is he? |
47400 | Where''s my tiger? |
47400 | Where''s this egg? |
47400 | Who cares for mocking billows, Or demons of the deep? 47400 Who has dared to let him loose? |
47400 | Who has let loose my tiger? |
47400 | Who, and what are you? |

47400 | Will you, Sir, or will you not put down that window? |

47400 | Yes, sir-- we have the same bin now-- the port you mean, sir? |
47400 | You are, I presume, in Mr. Brady''s service? |
47400 | You wish to speak to me, sir? |
47400 | You''ll take a glass of ale or so? 47400 Your H- opposition coach and a pair of horses?" |
47400 | ''All right?'' |
47400 | ''Ay,''says Tom and the others,''now you''ll believe it, von''t you?'' |
47400 | ''Did n''t you?'' |
47400 | ''Done vot?'' |
47400 | ''Lost, how?'' |
47400 | ''No,''says, he;''shall I say you''re a coming into Bristol?'' |

47400 | ''Well, Quashie,''I said,''you have got here I see, but which of you won?'' |
47400 | ''and, Mr. Banks,''says I,''what shall I order for your supper?''" |
47400 | ( I had light-- very light hair)"vot are yer a looking at now?--a com- paring that ugly phiz o''yourn with a gen''leman''s?" |
47400 | ("What, all?" |

47400 | --"Hadn''t I better read it for myself?" |
47400 | --"They were gained,"he would say,"under Nelson, fighting for my king and country-- and what''s the odds so as you''re happy?" |
47400 | --"What danger can there be when there''s hardly wind enough to fill the canvas?" |
47400 | --"Why not, man?" |
47400 | --''But will he pay?'' |

47400 | Again, mark you his freckles-- whoever saw such in the face of beauty? |
47400 | Am I to read? |
47400 | And Sarah faintly answers,"Yes, did you hear that?" |
47400 | And for the_ life_ of the scene? |
47400 | And thou, O Dog, with deep- set eyes, Wert thou, like Love, once blind; With helpless limbs, of pigmy size, And voice that scarcely whined? |
47400 | And what is friendship but a name, That boils on Etna''s breast of flame? |
47400 | And what''s become of him, my boy?" |
47400 | And when did he first see your phiz Reflected in his own? |
47400 | And when your guns are run out, why what''s the use on''em if you do n''t clap a match to the touch- holes and pour in a reg''lar broadside?" |
47400 | And where could he have found a more fitting place? |
47400 | Are you determined to destroy yourself, or are you aware of your danger?" |
47400 | Art thou descended from the pair From whom the Cæsars came? |

47400 | But how far does it go? |

47400 | But is n''t this a good deal like cutting his own nose off?" |
47400 | But may not patent- ice pavements be laid down in our popular thoroughfares? |
47400 | But there, what''s the odds so as you''re happy?" |

47400 | But what is a dun? |
47400 | But what poet ever found a steep so difficult as that_ gradus ad Parnassum_ to the seemingly dislocated donkey? |

47400 | By twelve o''clock in the day there was a vast accumulation; and at that hour, the master of the house would say,"James, are all the doors shut?" |
47400 | Can they well be otherwise, when they worship a deity so remorseless and so unfeeling? |
47400 | Can we assume that, in the nature of a mountebank balancing on his chin a ladder surmounted by a long- eared brute, there is no room for vanity? |
47400 | Cavil?" |
47400 | Cold and wet, is n''t it?" |
47400 | Come, roundly, your reason, sir? |
47400 | Commonplace and even plebeian, as is the simple question"Who are you?" |
47400 | Could I think of treading in the boots of a blackleg, albeit they never were his own? |
47400 | Could ever flower with thee compare? |
47400 | Could his eyes have ceased to possess discriminating power? |

47400 | Do you suppose that a gentleman would come here_ without_ such an_ indispensable_ article of dress?" |
47400 | Do you think other people is as vicked as yerself?" |
47400 | Does Jack heave one sigh in compliment to the illustrious absentees, and in depreciation of the company who_ have_ assembled? |
47400 | Does he mean to say he has ever met with any one of these lines_ before?_][ Footnote 3: Burke.] |
47400 | Euphemius, my dear, will you read?--Martha, you can take away.--Beg pardon, any more tea, Miss Dibsley? |
47400 | Haste then and flee from the wrath to come, for have I not prophesied, and it hath come to pass?--Have I not foretold, and the fulfilment is at hand? |
47400 | Have I not declared that England would be deserted by her allies? |
47400 | Have you ever been to sea?" |
47400 | Have you seen my Ben-- g- g- gal?" |
47400 | He turned to Peach and demanded--"Who and what are you?--how came you here?--who has dared to let you in?--speak-- who are you?" |
