20718And tell me, Sage, what became of the ear?
20718And the man?
20718And what was the good of all that?
20718And what will be the end?
20718And what will the Cockatoo do?
20718But was it worth while to sell this rare thing for a very ordinary one?
20718But what will be the very end?
20718But who_ really_ benefited by all this?
20718It means, first of all,said the Sage,"that the woman is a fool, as what is the value of a Topaz in comparison with a Diamond or a Ruby?
20718More so than if it returned your caresses?
20718So you have come back?
20718Then what will happen now?
20718Then what_ could_ be the pleasure of it all?
20718Upon an insensible object?
20718Well?
20718Well?
20718Were you not content with my last utterances?
20718What do you want now?
20718What next?
20718Why do you come here demanding my advice if you moralize yourself? 20718 You asked me what was life-- and why the fruit tasted bitter in the mouth?
20718*****"More questions?"
20718And what should the woman do?"
20718And why does the fruit taste bitter in the mouth?"
20718Now tell me, Sage, should the woman go on to the end and find perhaps a stone?
20718Now tell me, Sage, which was right-- the man or the Tiger?"
20718Or should she try to rewind the silk?
20718S. C._ THE DAMSEL AND THE SAGE And the Damsel said to the Sage:"Now, what is life?
20718Surely that is waste of time?"
20718Tell me, Damsel-- you who ask questions and answer them finally yourself-- tell me, What did the Fish do?"
20718Tell me, Sage, why did this action cure the Dove of its great love for the man, when it had borne all the blows and cruelty without resentment?"
20718The Sage, however, was not in the mind to let her go so soon, so he began a question:"Why do you caress that bird so much?
20718The thought came to her,''What if it should not be silk all through and I have come to the end of matters?
20718What does it all mean, Sage?"
20718What shall I do?''
20718What then?"
20718Which is the best course?"
20718Why did the man do this?"
20718Why was this, Sage?
20718Why was this, Sage?"
20718Will you not come out and sit in the sun while you answer?"
19994Did you see how I made them run?
19994Do n''t you go wherever you please?
19994Do you ever get anywhere?
19994Do you pretend to know more than I? 19994 Do you really think you can provide for me?"
19994Do you think I would trust you on such security? 19994 Do you think,"he said spitefully to the Lion,"that I am afraid of you because they call you king?"
19994Have n''t you got it? 19994 Have you heard the wonderful news?"
19994Have you no manners? 19994 How could I have done so?"
19994Is that the Ostrich you talked about?
19994Is that the thanks I get for feeding you and treating you so well?
19994Is this your axe?
19994Is this your constancy?
19994Making music, were you?
19994Oho, what have we here?
19994Very smart, are n''t you? 19994 Was he as big as this?"
19994What are_ you_ afraid of?
19994What did he tell you?
19994What have you Wheels to complain about so loudly? 19994 What have you to compare with this?
19994What is it you see?
19994What is it?
19994What is that on your neck?
19994What makes you squeal like that?
19994What must I do?
19994What news?
19994What use is it,said another,"to read the stars, when you ca n''t see what''s right here on the earth?"
19994Who taught you to divide so fairly?
19994Why are you doing that?
19994Why do you do that?
19994Why do you do that?
19994Why do you look so woebegone?
19994Why do you run? 19994 Why is there always this hostility between us?"
19994You are a citizen of illustrious Athens, are you not?
19994You think you are extremely clever, do n''t you?
19994But let me ask one question: Who will bell the Cat?"
19994But what''s the difference?"
19994But where are your wits?"
19994Can Mice fly?
19994Can it be a crime to eat sheep, such stupid mutton heads?
19994Can you guess who it was that our young Mouse was trying to describe to his mother?
19994Did you buy it, or did the Shepherd make you a gift of it?
19994Do you think you can move the wagon by simply looking at it and whining about it?
19994Do you want everybody to know what a disgraceful and ill- natured Dog you are?"
19994Is it his great size that makes your eyes pop out?
19994Is n''t it enough that I let you take your head out of my mouth without snapping it off?"
19994Is there any special food you eat, or is it some divine nectar that makes you sing so wonderfully?"
19994Or is it his wrinkled hide?
19994Pray tell me, how did you get it?"
19994Pray tell me, how do your visitors find their way out again?"
19994The Lion looked back, but as the Wolf was too far away to be taught a lesson without too much inconvenience, he said:"Your property?
19994There in that hole?
19994What in the world were you doing all last summer?"
19994When the Frog saw the Mouse, he swam to the bank and croaked:"Wo n''t you pay me a visit?
19994Where now his strength and his former graceful beauty?
19994Why did you not keep it in the house where you could easily get it when you had to buy things?"
19994Why did you put it there?
19994Why do n''t you dress better?
19994_ Foolish curiosity and vanity often lead to misfortune._ THE YOUNG CRAB AND HIS MOTHER"Why in the world do you walk sideways like that?"
19994cried Jupiter"Are you not yet content?
19994cried the Ants in surprise,"have n''t you stored anything away for the winter?
19994he asked very respectfully,"that has given you such beautiful voices?
19994they said laughing,"what do you call it, father?"
21446Ah, poor Reynard,says he,"I am sorry for you with all my heart; how could you possibly come into this melancholy condition?"
21446But this surely will?
21446Cousin,says the Fox,"what is it that you look at so earnestly?"
21446Nay, pray cousin, do not go,says the Cock,"I am just coming down; surely you are not afraid of Dogs in these peaceable times?"
21446No,said the Lion,"you will not persuade me to that; for if the messenger he sends is so sharp, what must be the power of him who sends it?"
21446Shall I,says he,"of tender age, In this important care engage?
21446The delicious story of Dicksy, Flapsy and Picksey-- who can have forgotten it? 21446 What,"says one of them,"Brother, do you hang Sheep?"
21446Why was this idle charge?
21446Will this?
21446A Barley- Mow, which stood beside, Thus to its musing master cried:"Say, good sir, is it fit or right, To treat me with neglect and slight?
21446A Rat, who saw her lab''ring steps, Cried out,"Where in this hurry, pray?
21446After puffing and swelling for some time,"What think you,"said she, to her young ones,"will this do?"
21446And have you the conscience to demand a further reward?"
21446And what''s a Butterfly?
21446And why the plum''s inviting blue?
21446Are those poor sweepings of a groom, That filthy sight, that nauseous fume, Meet objects here?
21446But doth not he divide the care, Through all the labours of the year?
21446But, pray( for I''m extremely dry), Know you of any water nigh?"
21446Cousin Wolf, what say you to this matter?"
21446Do you not prefer the busy world to the chirping of birds, and the splendour of a court to the rude aspect of an uncultivated desert?
21446Have I not suffered you safely to draw your neck out of my jaws?
21446He that is capable of injuring his benefactor, what would he scruple to do towards another?
21446How can you bear to live in this nasty, dirty, melancholy hole here, with nothing but woods and meadows, mountains and rivulets about you?
21446I marry without more ado; My dear Dick Redcap, what say you?"
21446Or did she doubt my heart was brave, And, therefore, this injunction gave?
21446Or does her harvest store the place, A treasure for her younger race?
21446Shall haughty men my back bestride?
21446Shall the sharp spur provoke my side?
21446Shall we our servitude retain, Because our sires have borne the chain?
21446Shall, then, our nobler jaws submit To foam and champ the galling bit?
21446She was resolved to change, that''s poz; Could she be worse than where she was?
21446So you see how you are to live.--Come, come along; what is the matter with you?"
21446Speak out, silly Horse, would you wish to be him?"
21446The Ass, meeting him in this forlorn condition, thought that now it was his time to speak; and so, says he,"Heyday, friend, is it you?
21446The Dog the parley thus begun:--"How can that strong, intrepid mind Attack a weak, defenceless kind?
21446Were they to feast his taste designed, That vermin, of voracious kind?
21446Were we designed for daily toil, To drag the ploughshare through the soil; To sweat in harness through the road; To groan beneath the carrier''s load?
21446What does he do in this sad plight?
21446Who ever saw so fine a blue?"
21446Why glows the peach with crimson hue?
21446Why thus insulted, thus disgraced, And that vile Dunghill near me placed?
21446Why wake you to the morning''s care?
21446Why with new arts correct the year?
21446cries the other, in a fury,--"Why, sir, d''ye think I''ve lost my eyes?"
21446my good friend, are you there?
21446said he,"why will ye learn so soon to be cruel?
21446says he,"but what avails my silent, unmeaning beauty, when I am so far excelled in voice?"
21446says he,"why so sparing of your litter?
21446what is that?"
16688And when no flower is seen Upon the hill and plain, Who''ll make it all so green, And bring the flowers again?
16688And will my flowers come, too?
16688Father, when people die, Will they come back in May?
16688My royal brother, O King Charles, Why did I fly from thee? 16688 Stop,"cried the Needle,"you''re too much, You''ve brass enough to beat the Dutch; Do I not make the ladies''clothes, Ere I retire to my repose?
16688Tell me, who may her sewer be? 16688 Tell on; who are her faithful guards?"
16688Tell on; who is her minstrel free?
16688What, mother, makes it seem to me, When I am all alone, As if some one could hear and see, And all my thoughts were known? 16688 Who shows the birds the way, Father, that they must go?
16688And brings them back in May, When there is no more snow?
16688And can I skip from tree to tree, And fly along the flowery plain, Light as the wind, as fleet, as free, And make my winter''s nest again?
16688And can I, free and unconfined, Taste of the joys that still are dear?
16688And can I, may I, silent be?
16688And can it be I am possessed Of something brighter far?
16688And when I shall be sick and old, O, then will God be nigh?
16688And who cupbearer, too?"
16688Are all things here so bright and fair, And has he with a loving care My happy being given?
16688Before I close my eyes to- night, Let me myself these questions ask:-- Have I endeavoured to do right, Nor thought my duty was a task?
16688Echo from shore to shore?
16688Frail pledges of the contrite heart, Wherefore so soon decay?
16688Glows there a light within this breast Outshining every star?
16688Have I been gentle, lowly, meek, And the small voice of conscience heard?
16688Have I with cheerful zeal obeyed What my kind parents bid me do, And not by word or action said The thing that was not strictly true?
16688How did this nonsense first begin?
16688How is it that we such multitudes raise?
16688How shall it ever utterance find For all itself hath taught?
16688I''m rather short and thick,''tis true; Who''d be so long and thin as you?
16688If I am hungry, poor, and cold, Then will he hear my cry?
16688In hard temptation''s troubled hour, Then have I stopped to think and pray, That God would give my soul the power To chase the sinful thought away?
16688My mother calls me her good boy, My father calls me brave; What wicked action have I done That I should be a slave?
16688Our tears they will flow; But do we not know That thou art released from all pain?
16688Perhaps the whole mischief is caused by the air, And who''gainst this evil can ever prepare?
16688Praise to him who made the light, Praise to him who gave us sight, Praise to him who formed the ear; Will he not his children hear?
16688Senseless things have found a voice; Shall this throbbing heart be still, When all nature cries,"Rejoice"?
16688Soon as he ceased,--"Suppose,"said she,"I could contrive to set you free; Would you those pretty wings give me?"
16688Tears were in Charley''s eye,--"Will they, dear father, say?"
16688That his right arm can save; O, is it, can it, be his will That I should be a slave?
16688The king he thinks,--"What do I see?
16688The little fellow said,"And all be bright and new, That now looks cold and dead?"
16688The pertinent question, Who reads an American book?
16688The voice of the old shoe now once more was heard:--"Master Frank, will you please to attend?
16688Then who, forsooth, the glory wins?
16688This blessed day, when the pure air Is full of sweetness, full of joy,-- When all around is calm and fair,-- Shall we the harmony destroy?
16688This is the world''s unjust decree, But what is this vain world to me?
16688WHEN ARE WE HAPPIEST?
16688Was it some sylph whose tender care Spangled thy robes so fine and fair, And wove them of the morning air?
16688Was that the music of the wind, That whispered in my trembling ear?
16688What bids the savage tempest speak Of terror and dismay, And wakes the agonizing shriek Of guilt that fears to pray?
16688What gilds the evening hours?
16688What in the gentle moon doth see Pure thoughts and tender love, And hears delicious melody Around, below, above?
16688What is it makes the morning bright?
16688What is it on the dizzy height, What in each glowing star, That speaks of things beyond the sight, And questions what they are?
16688What is it to the murmuring stream Doth give so sweet a song, That on its tide my thoughts do seem To pour themselves along?
16688What is this life- inspiring mind, This omnipresent thought?
16688What makes our hearts seem gay and light, As if we trod on flowers?
16688What makes us, when we look above, See smiling angels there, And think they look on us in love, As if we were their care?
16688What was in the viewless wind, Wild rushing through the oak, Seemed to my listening, dreaming mind As though a spirit spoke?
16688What''comes of all the birds Amidst the storms and snows?"
16688What, in the glorious world above, Where all is beauty, all is love,-- What shall I be in heaven?
16688When passion tempted me to speak, Have I repressed the angry word?
16688Who at the moon and stars can gaze Without a gush of love and praise?
16688Who made the winter and the spring?
16688Who painted all the flowers?
16688Who taught the little birds to sing, And made these hearts of ours?
16688Who, with skilful fingers fine, Purpled o''er those wings of thine?
16688Will God, who made the earth and sea, The night, and shining day, Regard a little child like me, And listen when I pray?
16688art thou still?
16688see I aright?
16688what will she do?
21943But, Rascal, my dear Rascal, who has put this wild notion into your head? 21943 But,"he added,"through what awkwardness, or what negligence, could he lose his own shadow?"
21943Let us not envy,I replied,"the poor devil this trifling booty; I scatter my money about profusely, why not to him?
21943May I then be allowed to ask, what sort of a thing is your soul? 21943 What does that matter?"
21943What was the man''s appearance?
21943Who are you, then?
21943You mean a reflected shadow?
21943--"Where is he-- where?
2194312.--"Why, noble woman, expose yourself to the bad air which is so prevalent here?
21943And I am then to be fooled at last?
21943And have not I entwined in thy existence an olive- branch and a rose- bud, as in the garland which I dared to present thee?
21943And how do you imagine I employed myself?
21943And shall not the malignant world be tasked?
21943And what-- what is the Shadow?
21943And you-- do you not yet serve your master and friend in this godlike manner, with sweet and silent satisfaction?"
21943At the gate I was again condemned to hear from the sentinel,"Where has the gentleman left his shadow?"
21943Bendel asked from within,"who is there?"
21943But did I ever attempt to strangle you in order to possess your valuable soul, to which I really have a great liking?
21943But what king could I be?
21943Did anybody ever hear of a shadow abandoning its master?
21943Do you know what wealth he possesses?
21943Do you know what will become of it when you are once departed?
21943Dost thou know what is my misery?
21943Far different is the true beginning; but who would play over again the early game of life, though it is a blessing, on the whole, to have lived?
21943Had she, too, recognized me?
21943Have I, for the sake of my bartered purse, let loose a servant upon you, and endeavoured to run away with it?"
21943Have you ever seen it?
21943He spoke:"May I ask for a trifling memento?
21943I angrily flung the door open, and called out to Rascal,"What dost want, thou scoundrel?"
21943I gently asked him, who that courteous gentleman was in grey clothes.--"Who?
21943I inquired hastily:"Did Mr. Jones give you his signature?"
21943I opened my eyes; it was dark; my hated companion was there holding me, but scolding thus:"Now, is not that behaving like a silly old woman?
21943Is he well?
21943Is it because, when you attacked me on the highway, you attempted to steal my charm by force?
21943Is it too high a problem, then, to task ye?
21943Is not your own shadow enough for you?
21943Is your fate then so dreary that you long for death?"
21943My hated evil genius fixed his eyes angrily on me, and whispered in these rapid words,"Can you bear_ that_ too?
21943Of what use would wings be to him who is fast bound in iron fetters?
21943On me-- though guiltless as a child-- the throng Flung all their mockery of thy naked being,-- And is the likeness then so very strong?
21943Or will you rather deliver over the sweet maiden to that contemptible scoundrel, Mr. Rascal?
21943Professor,"I began,"can you paint a false shadow for one, who in the most luckless way in the world has lost his own?"
21943Promise me to give thy hand to Mr. Rascal; say, wilt thou promise me?"
21943Shall I confess it?
21943That thy beloved-- what he?
21943What could I do?
21943What could I make of this singular proposal for disposing of my shadow?
21943What runs in your veins instead of blood?"
21943but can it not be altered?"
21943do n''t you hear?"
21943dost thou know what is my curse?
21943he that looks like an end of thread blown away from a tailor''s needle?"
21943or is it because you endeavoured fraudulently to get possessed of my property, the shadow, which had been confided to your simple honour?
21943replied he, with seeming surprise,"why not?"
21943thought I; and with an altered tone, yet more forcible, as contrasted with the humility of his own, I replied:"How is this, good friend?
21943you hate me-- I know it: but why do you hate me?
21943{ Schlemihl and Fanny: p48.jpg} But why enter upon the details of an everyday story?
21943{ Schlemihl offered the parchment: p72.jpg} I stood there still, as if I were asleep--"Announced for to- day?"
33888Quelle personne es- tu? 33888 ''Tis he, that makes us look so thin, To stretch his everlasting Skin; Tho''we do all his Business, What did he ever give to us? 33888 And, if you do the same, you''ll see,} He''ll quickly be as lean as we;} What say ye, Brothers, do y''agree?} 33888 Are Taxes rais''d, without consent Of Parliament? 33888 Came to the Labourer, and said, Your Ax in''t lost, cheer up, my Lad: I''ve got it here; but can you tell Which is your own? 33888 For him we starve; for what d''ye think Becomes of all the Meat and Drink? 33888 His Friend the Black- bird says, if so,} Make haste to Court; why do n''t you go?} 33888 How so pray? 33888 I believe I can inform you better, Which way you may decide the matter What signifies our looking on, And hearing Council pro and con? 33888 I''m not inclin''d to''t, Or goes it loose when y''have a Mind to''t, Truely not always; but what''s that? 33888 Indeed, said Carp, he could not tell, Nor did much care, quoth Herring well What Laws, what Form of Government? 33888 Le mari repart, sans songer:Tu ne leur portes point à boire?
33888Look on that Sheep, he thinks you''re mad; Has he spoke one Word good or bad?
33888Must w''eat a Bit before we go?
33888Nay, why not?
33888Says the Satyr, Whose Palate could bear scalding- water, Friend, what the Devil are you a doing?
33888She would have Justice done, she swore, Call''d Folly Rogue and Son''f a Whore: How did you do''t; I''ll make you dance?
33888The Cuckold and the God of War Were very hot, they''d have him dye; But when_ Minerva_ ask''d him, Why?
33888The House is full of Dogs and Boys, And ev''ry where''s a horrid Noise, Well, Landlord, Come, What shall we do?
33888The King would not be put upon: Asks all his Court what''s to be done?
33888This was his Speech; when Chanc''lor Fox Cries out, what signifies an Ox, Or Horse?
33888Thus spoke the Lyon to the Gnat; Who answer''d, Bully, Think ye that I''ll bear Affronts?
33888Well, Brother, have I bulk enough, An''t I as large, as he?
33888What Horseman''s yonder at the Door?
33888What cares a Frog for Kites, in Water?
33888What do you mean by all this blowing?
33888What have you got?
33888What need the Fool to have made such Faces?
33888What, I a Mouse?
33888What, says the Husband, do you think Never to bring them any Drink?
33888What, says the Husband, do you think Never to bring them any Drink?
33888When do we marry Mistress_ Ann_?
33888Which are your Ministers of State?
33888Who gives you reason to complain?
33888Who is to be the happy Man?
33888Your Cries have stunn''d us; what d''ye make This horrid Noise for?
33888_ Thus Cits advise what''s to be done, This way they should attack the Town; Now here, then there, why do n''t they come?
33888a''nt you a Mouse?
33888what Courts of?
33888what Puppy calls''em so?
21189Agreed,rejoined the wolf,"I''ll go: But pray, what work am I to do?"
21189And so,said he, to him below,"How dare you stir the water so?
21189Be it so,said his friend,"but what sound do I hear?
21189But pray,said the lion,"who sculptured that stone?"
21189But then there''s their barley; how much will they need? 21189 Do you not know, my friend,"says he,"Bird, beast, fish, reptile, man agree, To live henceforth in amity?
21189Elf, durst thou call me, vile pretender?
21189How d''ye do?
21189How so? 21189 Ill luck to my hurry, what now shall I do?
21189Is that the case?
21189My brother, What can the matter be? 21189 Now is not this to be preferr''d To your green peas?"
21189Now,thought he,"what''s the reason, I can not see any, That I have no favors, while he has so many?
21189Pray,said the satyr,"may I know For what you blow your fingers so?"
21189Six shillings a pair-- five-- four-- three- and- six, To prevent all mistakes, that low price I will fix; Now what will that make? 21189 So,"says he,"do n''t be prating,--look yonder, I pray, At that sculpture of marble, now what will you say?
21189Was it not then because of us,Said elephant,"that you descended?"
21189What was his trade?
21189What?
21189Whose voice is that which growls at mine?
21189A crab one day her daughter chid;"You never do as you are bid, Have I not told you o''er and o''er, That awkward gait to use no more?
21189A travell''d swallow, learn''d and wise, To all his feather''d neighbors cries:"See you yon laborers there below; What is it, think ye, that they sow?
21189A youth ask''d why so long in bed?
21189And lift the axle from the bog; Think''st thou Gods nothing have to do But listen to such knaves as you?"
21189But what d''ye call_ that_, hanging there?
21189Can thy weak warbling dare approach the thrush Or blackbird''s accents in the hawthorn bush?
21189Cries one of these, with saucy sneer, To a plain fig- tree growing near,"How comes it, honest friend, that thou Dost in the spring no blossoms show?"
21189Do you not see That you''re the noisiest of the three?
21189Eat sheep, and why not?
21189Echo as stern cried,"Who art thou?"
21189From this small hill you see a space Extended far beneath your view, I like it much; pray do not you?
21189Hast thou no bowels for thy kind?
21189Have I not learn''d from you to walk?
21189How should we read his will, And know that which from us he would conceal?
21189Idiot, what warning would''st thou have?
21189If bees a government maintain, Why may not rats of stronger brain And greater power, as well bethought By Machiavelian axioms taught?
21189Is it a sin?
21189Is it an iron chain, or what?"
21189Is this the knowledge to which we aspire, Is it an error or a crime thus to believe That future destiny can thus be known?
21189Is this your gratitude?"
21189Let me your story comprehend: Your bull, you say, my ox has gored?"
21189Now in Chance there can no science be, Or why should it be called by them_ Chance_-- And things uncertain, who knows in advance?
21189One day he bid the man attend-- And,"Well,"says he,"my honest friend, How is it that so well you thrive?
21189Or with the lark dost thou poor mimic, vie, Or nightingale''s unequal''d melody?
21189Others beneath their noon- tide sun-- Time''s deepest lines engrave thy brow, And dost thou hesitate to go?
21189Pray, what may be the profit clear, That you can earn within the year?"
21189Said the other,"Oh, what shall we do?"
21189So said he,"Is it you?
21189The carter to the porker turned,"Where have you manners learned, Why stun us all?
21189The lad entreats his life to save: The Don replies with aspect grave,"Sirrah, what business had you there?
21189The rustic then his axe did take,"Is this then the return you make?
21189This done they next were thus address''d:"Two lubbers on a little beast?
21189Were I to move the other way, How could I follow you I pray?"
21189What more?
21189What must be done?"
21189Where are you?
21189Which of the two best loved the other?
21189cried he,"Shall I take the life Of a musical bird like this?
21189do you so?"
21189foolish kite, thou hadst no wing, How could''st thou fly without a string?
21189is it a vice?
21189quoth he,"what have we here?
21189said his host, in accent rough,"Is not your pottage hot enough?"
21189says the Lion:"Who art thou?"
21189she cried,"puss are you there?
21189your''s, my friend?
41921A pot of gold?
41921Are they worth the price of a rose?
41921Are you a wizard, that you change a child''s tears into laughter, and turn an old half- witted woman back to a young girl? 41921 Are you weary of being a Queen?"
41921But what is this?
41921But where_ is_ our dream?
41921Did I not leave my treasure in exchange?
41921Do you really understand how great a hardship it is?
41921Do you remember what we said last night when we found the gold piece?
41921Do you wonder that I am out of temper? 41921 How many times?"
41921Share it with you?
41921Well, little one,he said, when the wheel stopped whirling,"did you like what I made out of that sad little tear?"
41921What can it all mean?
41921What do you see in the mirror,said the old man,"that you gaze so earnestly in it?"
41921What is it?
41921What shall we do?
41921What use are these to us now, without our dream?
41921Where can it have gone?
41921Where did you gather your water- lilies, child?
41921Who and what are you?
41921Who ever heard of such luck?
41921Who knows?
41921Why, what is this?
41921Will you share it with me?
41921Would you be so lonely then?
41921A little sleep-- it matters not how deep; A little falling feather from Thy wing: Merciful Lord-- is it so great a thing?
41921After all, what were worldly possessions compared with this natural boon of which he was about to rob the sleeping man?
41921Am I not rich?
41921And was he about to subject a fellow human being to the torture which he had endured to the verge of madness?
41921And what more dream do you want than gold and precious stones?"
41921But how could he cash a daisy or negotiate a lark?
41921But when he looked into the mirror, expecting to see his own ancient face-- what did he see?
41921Could he, a poet, exchange this celestial windfall for a meal and a new doublet?
41921Do you think that you are the only dream in the world?
41921Ferdinand is dead-- can you imagine anything more unreasonable of him?
41921Have you heard her play Your soul away On a harp with moonbeam strings?
41921In short, will you consent to be Archbishop of Bohemia?"
41921Need one say that the usurper least of all understood?
41921Of what use is a dream to any one?
41921Only, where was that rose for the bosom of his sweetheart-- where was it growing?
41921Or was it the long- threatened invasion of the King of France?
41921THE PINE LADY O have you seen the Pine Lady, Or heard her how she sings?
41921The circus proprietor looked at him a long time in contemptuous silence, and then, with an ugly sneer, said:"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
41921Was she weary of being a Queen?
41921Was there a sorrow in the world that no money could buy?
41921What other dream could I have but you?"
41921What-- what am I to do?"
41921Where and how was it to be bought?
41921Where can it be?"
41921Where on earth-- he was wondering-- was there another man who would be so put out at being made a king?
41921Will you look into it?"
41921Would all his castles be a fair exchange for that?
41921Would you seem so lonely then?
41921Yet his heart was filled with a high happiness, for, the vision once his, would it not be his again?
41921as it appears that I must consent to be Head of the World Temporal-- will you consent to be the Head of the World Spiritual?
39499Do you ne''er love?
39499Have you no friendship?
39499No care for little ones?
39499Pass the world, and what''s behind? 39499 Shall not the bloody, and the bold, The miser, hoarding up his gold, The harlot, reeking from the stew, Alone thy fell revenge pursue?
39499That''s made?
39499Will the STORK, intending rest, On the billow build her nest? 39499 ''But think ye( tell me without feigning) Have all these charms no farther meaning? 39499 ''No, no,''How then?"
39499''Tis harder far( you''ll find it true) To keep the conquest than subdue; Admit us once behind the screen, What is there farther to be seen?
39499''What say you now, you pretty pink, you?
39499Along the forest as we stray''d, You saw the boy his lime- twigs spread; Guess''d you the reason of his fear, Lest, heedless, we approach''d too near?
39499And come, misfortune surely must; In the dread season of dismay, In that your hour of trial, say, Who then shall prop your sinking heart?
39499And must weak WOMAN then disown The change to which a world is prone?
39499And think you, with inferior art, To captivate the human heart?
39499And will you then this wealth conceal, For AGE to rust, or TIME to steal?
39499And, miser- like, withhold that store, Which, by imparting, blesses more?
39499Are these the comforts of a wife?
39499But must the gentle, and the kind, Thy fury, undistinguish''d find?"
39499But stay-- The settlement?
39499By nature''s author thus declar''d The woman''s sov''reign and her guard: Shall man, by treach''rous wiles invade The weakness he was meant to aid?
39499By treach''ry prompts the noisy hound To scent his footsteps o''er the ground?
39499Ca n''t I another''s face commend, Or to her virtues be a friend, But instantly your forehead lours, As if her merit lessen''d your''s?
39499Did NATURE, lavish of her care, From her best pattern form you fair, That you, ungrateful to her cause, Should mock her gifts, and spurn her laws?
39499Do those of your world never wive it?"
39499From hence, if he rewards bestow, Why should your heart with gall o''erflow?
39499Have I, for once, spoke reason, think you?
39499I listen not to wild delights, And transports of expected nights; What is to me your hoard of charms, The whiteness of your neck and arms?
39499I said, that DELIA''S fair;''tis true, But did I say she equall''d you?
39499In one meridian brightness shine, And ne''er like ev''ning suns decline?
39499Is JUSTICE grown so strange a name?
39499Is this, dissembling rage, he cry''d, The gentle virtue of a bride?
39499Me ample wealth and pow''r attend, Wide o''er the plains my realms extend; What midnight robber dare invade The fold, if I the guard am made?
39499NATURE, to hide her own defects, Her bungled work with fin''ry decks; Were GEESE set off with half that show, Would men admire the PEACOCK?
39499Needs there no acquisition more, To keep contention from the door?
39499Needs there such caution to delude The scaly fry, and feather''d brood?
39499No more with virgin splendour burn?
39499On one side only take the fee, Content with poverty and thee?
39499Or teach the grateful breast to glow, The hand to give, or eye to flow?
39499Or that your cheeks are beds of flow''rs, Enripen''d by refreshing show''rs?
39499Or where the lily''s snowy white, That throws such beauties on the sight?
39499Or, watchful for the lab''ring swain, From lurking rats secure the grain?
39499Pray, madam, are you married?
39499Shall envy then torment your breast, If you are lovelier than the rest?
39499Shall ev''ry fowl the waters skim, Because we GEESE are known to swim?
39499Shall we anticipate the hour, And, ere we feel it, own his pow''r?
39499Sixteen, d''ye say?
39499Sons of PLEASURE, sons of CARE, Tell me, mortals, tell me where?
39499Sternly the white- rob''d shade reply''d,( A crimson glow her visage dy''d) Canst thou be doubtful who I am?
39499Such beauties might the LION warm, Did not your folly break the charm; For who would court that lovely shape, To be the rival of an APE?"
39499Tell me, CORINNA, if you can, Why so averse, so coy, to man?
39499That, leagu''d with man''s destroying race, She sets her husband for the chase?
39499The great and good Are by their actions understood; Your monument if actions raise, Shall I deface by idle praise?
39499The summer of your youth to rove, A stranger to the joys of love?
39499This careful, cloister''d, moping life?
39499Thou blind to sense, and vile of mind, Th''exasperated shade rejoin''d, If virtue from the world is flown, Will others faults excuse thy own?
39499Was it dress That gave your beauty pow''r to bless?
39499Were not your courts for JUSTICE rais''d?
39499What if I say your lips disclose The freshness of the op''ning rose?
39499What rude offence alarms you now?
39499What should she do; attempt once more To gain the late- deserted shore?
39499When zephyrs o''er the blossoms stray, And sweets along the air convey, Sha n''t I the fragrant breeze inhale, Because you breathe a sweeter gale?
39499Where is your asylum then?
39499Who bear AFFLICTION''S weightier part?
39499Who drives the vermin from the house?
39499Whose claws destroy the pilf''ring mouse?
39499Why knits my dear her angry brow?
39499Why must the wrapping bed- gown hide Your snowy bosom''s swelling pride?
39499Why pine my happiness to see, Since there''s enough for you and me?
39499Why then''s my simple girl afraid?
39499Why then, my AMORET, this care, That forms you, in effect, less fair?
39499Why, CELIA, is your spreading waist So loose, so negligently lac''d?
39499Would you the bloom of youth should last?
39499You''ve rallied me with sense exceeding, With much fine wit, and better breeding; But pray, sir, how do you contrive it?
39499can life contain?
39499can wrongs impart Compassion to the feeling heart?
39499thou curs''d insidious coast, Are these the blessings thou canst boast?
39499thy airs give o''er, And let my contemplation soar-- What is the music of thy voice, But jarring dissonance and noise?
19892And is this death?
19892And who may you be?
19892Bless your heart, my darling,said the mother;"why do you say that?"
19892But are there not other children in the house yonder who would like to join us?
19892But how about those others who wanted a change?
19892But how came you there?
19892But tell me, how will it come about? 19892 But what did you find on the way?"
19892Did you ever play Gillyflower Gentleman?
19892Do you know,he asked,"of any kingdom in these parts where the crown is ready and the folk wait for a king?"
19892From the Primary Department?
19892How are your scissors called, dear?
19892How do you know that?
19892How shall I know the house?
19892How should so fair a thing come up out of this black and dirty soil? 19892 I am seeking crown and kingdom for myself,"cried one;"is it likely that I can be finding one for you, too?
19892I am the old woman you helped with the burden; do n''t you remember? 19892 I trust I am not disappointing any of them in taking up this dear old comfortable body again?"
19892I was not naughty, was I?
19892Is So- and- So ill?
19892Is it your sin, that turned your cup blood red?
19892Is it your sorrow, that changed the green world to black about you?
19892Is there,he asked,"one here in whose breast these words strike like a barbed arrow, for the truth that is in them?"
19892Little one,she said,"have you anything for me?"
19892May I wrap me in the gown you are making?
19892Might that be Wisdom?
19892Must I tell you?
19892My dear little boy,cried the brother,"why are you making yourself so hideous?"
19892None else, save children: they cried about my path, but how could I stay for them while you waited?
19892Oh, Love, what like was the pang?
19892Ought we not to warn him of the danger?
19892Outside it is cold and empty,said Love,"and the wind blows over the waste; may I come in and warm me by the fire?"
19892Poor place, will nothing grow in you? 19892 Poor soul, did you know no better?"
19892Sweethearts,cried the Little Sister;"dear loves, tell me, whose light and joy and blessing are you?"
19892Was it so long?
19892We are called Temptation and Opportunity,they answered;"but what matters this name or that?
19892What God do you worship?
19892What ails you at the place?
19892What do you mean?
19892What hurts my Love?
19892What is a mother?
19892What is all this ado?
19892What is it?
19892What is it?
19892What is one''s frosting to this? 19892 What is the matter, dear?"
19892What is the meaning of this?
19892What is this,the child asked,"that is bitter, and yet sweeter than aught else in the world?"
19892What is this?
19892What is this?
19892What men are ye?
19892What shall I do with it, Lord?
19892What then?
19892What would you?
19892Where is your home?
19892Where is your ruler?
19892Whither away so fast?
19892Who are you, fair Spirit?
19892Who are you, who keep my house?
19892Who else?
19892Who have been waiting?
19892Who is this,he said,"that breaks my slumber?"
19892Why are you not at home, tending your fire, instead of gadding along the road in this fashion?
19892Why not?
19892Why should I live longer?
19892Why should I not give up,he said to himself,"and refuse to go on?
19892Why,said the second child,"should such a thing be here?
19892Will you kindly tell me what you would do with me if I should yield myself up to you?
19892You have been much together, then?
19892You say that I am not one being but many, and that your glass will show me my component parts as separate entities?
19892You think you are ready to go?
19892AT LONG LAST"Heart- of- mine, are you come at last?"
19892And what of the Way?"
19892But these white garments are not suitable for me; could I find a black robe, do you think?"
19892But what is going on now?
19892But what makes them so small?"
19892But what of my wings, lest they put the flight in me once more?"
19892But whom have we here?
19892Do you see what you have done?
19892Does thy sad- browed neighbor smile?
19892GILLYFLOWER GENTLEMAN"Why do you play alone, dear,"asked the Play Angel,"and look so sadly over your shoulder at the other children?"
19892Has that fair crown of rose and green drawn its life from so foul a source as this?
19892Hast thou e''er a joy, love?
19892He said to the first man,"What of your fire?"
19892Heart- of- mine, whom met you by the way?"
19892How shall I take this hard journey?"
19892I am sorry that you do not approve of me, but this is the way I was made; do you see?"
19892I must be free; I must fly, or of what use are my wings?"
19892If I were dead, I should not feel the blows; why should I struggle further with this burden?"
19892Said the eldest child to the Angel who was their guardian;"Dear, there is one seeking a home; shall we call her in?"
19892THE NEIGHBOUR"What can you tell me of your neighbour?"
19892THE STONE BLOCKS"Why is your little sister crying, dear?"
19892THE TANGLED SKEIN"My dear child,"said the Angel- who- attends- to- things,"why are you crying so very hard?"
19892Their faces are wholly strange to me; what are they?"
19892Then came the second, and of him, too, that one asked,"What of your fire?"
19892Was it not foolish of them, mother?
19892What are these creatures?"
19892What do you propose to do about it?"
19892What do you take me for?"
19892What place is this?"
19892Who knows but he may amend, and do it yet?"
19892Who should bear the torch but he?"
19892Whom else again?"
19892Why may we not call her in?"
19892asked the child,"and shall I wear a crown?"
19892but how does it grow?
19892but what of the steps before the door?"
19892dear me, what ever_ shall_ I do?"
19892he said;"what is this you have done?"
19892how was it empty, when I left the cup brimming over for you?
19892said the other;"how can that be?
19892was it you?"
19892what is the reason of it?"
19892what strange pigmies are these?"
19892when I would make a path for my Love''s white feet, and set instead a snare for them, to her hurt?"
19892whither, Beloved of my soul, from my arms that clasp yet can not hold you?"
19892who keeps my house alight?"
19892who keeps my house warm?"
19892whom else?"
19892will none help me out?"
19892will none help me out?"
240''We can not see around corners,''says Germulphius,''so what is left to the man who refuses to see in a straight line?''
240Am I gaining or losing ground with Arissa?
240And besides,continued an engineer,"how do these pictures get into the air in the first place?
240And how do you control its motions?
240And is this the effect of dotage or of primordial ignorance?
240And is this the state of a wise man?
240And may I remind you that slander is an offense punishable by law?
240And now tell me, which is of more value, a bar of soap or a human soul?
240And then where are you going?
240And then where will you go?
240And then where will you go?
240And what is a bird?
240And where can I find it?
240Are you Chirpy Bird?
240Are you accusing me of owning a television?
240Arissa,he said,"how about a date anon?"
240Back home, why?
240Believe in it?
240But after you retire, where will you go?
240But how shall I know what beliefs I should hold in order to live the best life?
240But when the physical evidence is clearly before you,said the traveler,"how can you not believe, even if your theories can not explain it?"
240But where''s your blonde hair?
240But why?
240Cost cutting?
240Did you ever seek help for yourself?
240Do less?
240Do n''t I get anything for my wisdom?
240Do n''t you recall his dictum that''a second example is not an explanation''? 240 Do you expect us to believe that there are pictures floating around us in the air-- pictures we can not see?
240Do you think I''m going to walk into the party with a girl who''s all wet and disheveled, looking like a drowned rat? 240 Does he expect us to believe this?"
240Has n''t that plot already been done?
240Have you seen anyone with a baby in the past week?
240Hints?
240How could anything be worse than this?
240How do you get them all in there?
240How many doors down from the elevator?
240How''s that?
240Is that like sleep?
240Is the greenness I see all over you moss or envy?
240Just what do you think you''re doing, anyway?
240Just what is it the king wants to do?
240Listen, do n''t you think I know that your doctrine of cosmic mental states is just a front and that you''re a closet monotheist?
240My infirmity?
240Oh, or like the chocolate- chip cookies you gave me that one time?
240Oh? 240 Really?
240Shall I hit you with the bloom or with the stem?
240Since when did the television listings become''literature''? 240 Sir,"he asked,"have you any identification?"
240So that''s how you make cement, huh?
240So you are ready to end your life?
240So you want power, huh?
240Tell me,replied the old man,"when you drop your bar of soap while bathing, what do you do?"
240Then what am I to do?
240Then where are you going?
240Then you really believe this madman''s drivel you''ve been feeding us?
240This race is an allegory, is n''t it, Father?
240We? 240 Well, what of that?
240Well, why did n''t you just say something to me, like,''I love you''?
240Well,asked the friend,"what does the building look like?"
240What I want to know is, Why is it there in the first place?
240What are you talking about?
240What brings you here on a school day?
240What do you mean?
240What floor are you on?
240What form does it take?
240What kind of a jerk would fire people like that?
240What shall I do with it?
240What should I do with it?
240What''s going on here?
240What''s wrong with him?
240What''s wrong? 240 What''s your name?"
240What?
240Where is your office?
240Who invited this charlatan?
240Who''s asking?
240Whoever heard of a fish named Chirpy Bird?
240Whom did you bet on, daddy?
240Why did n''t you say anything?
240Why do n''t you ask God to bless him while you''re at it?
240Why do n''t you shoot me if you do n''t like my pecking?
240Yeah, why not?
240You do n''t even know what you''re doing, do you?
240You know why you are n''t attacking the enemy, do n''t you?
240You lazy little nut,said a spinning gear,"why do n''t you get to work?"
240You love me after I have banished your daughter and proven unfaithful to you?
240You love me?
240You philosophers all say that one''s life does not consist in material things because they disappear, but what then can I gain that I can keep?
240You want to hear something funny, Lissa?
240You willingly gave me your son, even though I was evil?
240You''ve always been sloppy with bibliography, have n''t you?
240You? 240 A young woman once asked him,What can I do to make someone my friend?
240Almost out of habit, Sir Percival spoke:"Arissa, sugar, would you like to go out with me sometime?"
240And just what is mail?
240And that twenty sets of these pictures are all present at once, scrambled together, just waiting for that little box to take them and sort them out?
240And what does thinking look like to you?"
240And what human male could compete with an always confident, correct, and handsome construction?
240Besides, what good would it do me to help her?
240Besides, what would we do?"
240But remember that note I wrote where I called you a''weird monster man''?
240But what do you mean you sent me hints?"
240But who knew what the fate of the cured natives would eventually be?
240Do n''t you ever hope, Genie?"
240Do n''t you see that?
240How about tomorrow night?"
240How can I not believe it?
240How could you be so careless when we''re all dressed up like this, anyway?"
240How do you pretend to instruct the ignorance of youth when you have never instructed yourself?
240Pretty silly, huh?"
240Quite a find, eh?"
240Say, you feeling all right?
240See the little sign pointing the way?"
240Shall I oil my skin or brush my hair?"
240Some new treasure of the Orient, or a lost clue to the secrets of nature?
240That was a hint, huh?"
240This question, together with the problem for the day,"Does man have a purpose?"
240To which Arissa:"And when would this be?"
240To which Arissa:"Like where, ifay?"
240To which Arissa:"Oh, Perce, did n''t I tell you I was busy?"
240To which Arissa:"Really?
240To which the knight:"Well, when could you go then?"
240Well, what can we say?
240What could be worse?"
240What do you take us for anyway-- a bunch of gullible greenhorn fools?"
240What human female could compete with an always slim, beautiful, and lively imitation?
240What is it?"
240What makes it fly?"
240What should I do with it?"
240What should I do?"
240What''s yours?"
240Where are you going?"
240Where are you going?"
240Where do they come from?"
240Which books should I keep and which should I burn?"
240Which do you think I should ask for, Genie?"
240While he held his bleeding nose, he was heard to mutter,"Now why did they move the door?"
240Who are you, anyway?"
240Why do n''t you get out?"
240You are familiar with the English language, are n''t you?
240You want people to laugh at me?
240You''re one of those religious fanatics, right?
240asked the beard, looking at the sky,"to threaten his friend for speaking truth?"
2329And Betts Shoreham has nothing to do with all this dread?
2329And did they take any, Mr. Bobbinet? 2329 And have n''t all girls mothers?
2329And the DEAREST? 2329 And to whom will that difference belong?"
2329And what did it cost, pray? 2329 And why not?
2329And you will take her without a cent, you say?
2329And you, Mademoiselle Hennequin; I hope you, too, were agreeably entertained?
2329And your family name is not Hennequin?
2329And, pray, sir, how can that handkerchief have brought about any such result?
2329At home!--is there, indeed? 2329 But why not, Julia?"
2329By the dozen, or by the gross, sir?
2329Ca n''t I persuade you to take THIS?
2329Consequences!--may I ask, sir, to what consequences you allude?
2329Did I, sir? 2329 Did he?"
2329Does this wish, then, extend to the plural number?
2329Hang it,THOUGHT Tom, again,"who knows?
2329Has my grandmother asked for me, Nathalie?
2329Horses and carriages, of course? 2329 How much, sir?
2329I hope YOU enjoyed yourself better, Julia?
2329Is Miss Monson addicted to such VERY high spirits?
2329It meant to FILL, as they call it, does it not?
2329It''s all common property, Monson-- but, what have become of your sister and Mademoiselle Hennequin? 2329 Love?
2329Mademoiselle Hennequin, for mercy''s sake, be as frank and simple as I know your nature prompts-- DO you, CAN you love me?
2329No money, mademoiselle? 2329 No?"
2329Now, Mr. Thurston, I believe I understand this matter,said the father, in a very business- like manner;"you wish to marry my daughter?"
2329Pray, sir, may I ask,Mr. Monson now coming in,"did you pay for Jule''s handkerchief?
2329Referred? 2329 Shall I send it, Miss Eudosia; or do n''t you like to trust it out of your sight?"
2329Style? 2329 Tell me the worst at once-- is it true, HAVE you failed?"
2329Tell me, mon cher cousin,said Adrienne, smiling through her tears--"were your grand- parents, my good uncle and aunt, were they happy?
2329Then, so far as she herself is concerned, you wish me to understand that she accepts you?
2329This shows that you are, in truth, a lover of plain- dealing, Mr. Thurston-- and now, as to the handkerchief?
2329What CAN be the matter, Ma?
2329What have we here?
2329What is Betts Shoreham to me, or what am I to Betts Shoreham? 2329 What is the matter now, Jack?"
2329What say the YOUNG gentlemen to this?
2329What, alone with my daughter''s fine pocket- handkerchief? 2329 What, weary of beautiful dresses?
2329When does your lease end, mademoiselle?
2329When may I tell Mrs. Thoughtful, then, that you will send it to her?
2329Who else can it be, then?
2329Who is the lady to whom Mr. Shoreham is so devoue this evening?
2329Who is your BOSS, pocket- handkerchief?
2329Why do n''t Charley, then, take her himself? 2329 Why should I say''yes,''when it can lead to no good result?"
2329Why so, chere Clara?
2329Why, Mr. W., that is downright monarchical, is it not?
2329Why, they are NOT in''statu quo''--but in a''semper eadem''--I beg pardon, do you understand Latin?
2329Would it suit you, madame,she asked, as if dreading a repulse,"to part with one of these?"
2329Yes, I see you are feminine, by your ornaments-- still, you might tell a fellow who is your boss?
2329You do not expect to sell it at what it cost?
2329You mean, Henry, that you have failed?
2329You will not deny, Clara, that any thing which is fettered is not free? 2329 You would not have a young lady use her pocket- handkerchief like a snuffy old nurse, Clara?"
2329And that freedom is the greatest blessing of this happy country; and that trade ought to be as free as any thing else?"
2329And what state is your militia actually in?"
2329And why should she?
2329And you are referred?"
2329Are you European, also?"
2329Bobbinet?"
2329But what were you about to say of political economy?
2329But you are of foreign birth, ma''am, I should think by your dress and appearance?"
2329But, possibly, you do not wish to hear the calculation-- ladies, generally, dislike figures?"
2329But, why should this handkerchief awaken any feeling in you, monsieur?
2329COLONEL Silky?
2329Could it be that the grateful girl still intended to make her offering to the Duchesse de d''Angouleme?
2329Do you call a handkerchief with such lace, and all this magnificent work on it, and which cost a HUNDRED DOLLARS, foolish?
2329Do you call a pocket- handkerchief useless?"
2329Do you think she has an aristocratic air?"
2329Eudosia said,"that every person in Mrs. Trotter''s rooms should stare so at me, this evening?
2329Every thing on a genteel and liberal scale?"
2329Had we not better remain under the influence of the poetical star?"
2329Have you thought of your price, mademoiselle?"
2329Here it is; what do you think of my choice?"
2329How could such a thing be USED, for instance?"
2329How much fortune do you think will be necessary to make such a couple happy, at starting in the world?
2329How much is it?
2329I dare say your Pa is worth as much as that?"
2329I did hope that no sister of MINE would run into any such foolish extravagance-- do you own it, Jule?"
2329I do n''t remember the name-- which of OUR editors is he?"
2329I suppose you include dinners, sir, and a manly competition with one''s fellow citizens, in real New York form?"
2329I suppose your Pa makes you study political economy, my dear?"
2329I wonder if it be patriotic to say, OUR winters?"
2329In the name of heaven, how are we to bury your grandmother?"
2329Is Louis Philippe likely to maintain the throne, in France?"
2329Is it foolish to have money, or to be thought rich?"
2329It will say,''of what use are all my excellent lessons in taste and prudence, if an elder sister''s example is to counteract them?''
2329Julie is no ghost, though she is sometimes so delicate and ethereal, and as for Henny--""Who?"
2329Let me see-- had I best begin to screw him up in this interview, or wait for the next?
2329Monson?"
2329Mr. Thurston-- and of what is it your pleasure to accuse me of being the image?"
2329My father says it is----""What?
2329Now, does not this alter the matter about the pocket- handkerchief?
2329Now, how much do you guess?"
2329Of course you know what that means?"
2329Of what USE is a pocket- handkerchief like this?
2329Pray, what may that mean in particular?"
2329Shoreham?"
2329Shoreham?"
2329Surely-- surely-- this is not your work, mademoiselle?"
2329That she was a little addicted to this weakness, is true-- who ever knew a commissionaire that was not?
2329Thurston?"
2329Thurston?"
2329Was their union blessed?"
2329What am I to understand, sir, by your being referred?"
2329What do you think Pa is worth?"
2329What do you think of THIS?"
2329What is a BOSS?"
2329What is the price?"
2329What say you, mademoiselle-- will you accept the forty five francs, or would you prefer seeing the marchande de mode?"
2329What was it to me whether I were a modest plant, of half a cubit in stature, or the proudest oak of the forest-- man or vegetable?
2329What young man will dare to choose a wife from among young ladies who expend so much money on their pocket- handkerchiefs?"
2329What, just when I''ve paid a hundred dollars for a pocket- handkerchief?
2329Whom do you think I could mean, else?
2329Why ca n''t we aim higher at once, and get such girls as the Burtons, for instance?"
2329Will you have the goodness to explain this matter to me?"
2329Will you have the goodness to explain what you mean by that''yes?''"
2329You are not about to enact the Moor, in your days of wooing?"
2329You mean, to keep a liberal and gentlemanly establishment, as would become your son- in- law?"
2329You must have observed something very peculiar in my language, at the commencement of this exceedingly interesting dialogue?"
2329You own this handkerchief?"
2329commenced the mother--"and so the general has it all to answer for-- why did you let him give so many notes for you?"
2329exclaimed John Monson, in surprise;"has Miss Flowergarden made a call, and is this her card?"
2329exclaimed the wife--"YOU up at this hour?--what CAN have happened?
2329what HAS come to our door?"
2329who entered the room at that instant--"is this bit of a rag yours, or is it not more likely to be Henny''s?"
2329who, even in this extravagant and reckless country, could be found to pay such a price?
2329{ Mais, le malle...= But, what about your trunk, sir?}
2329{ en famille= at home}"I''m sure I can scarcely be grateful enough, my dear fellow-- but, you do not call her so to her face?"
2329{ preferred= promoted}"What has Honor brought you NOW?"
2329{ tant soit peu= an ever so tiny amount}"What is the''yes,''of which you speak,"she inquired,"and, on which you seem to lay so much stress?"
2329{''statu quo''= in the same state as always( Latin)}"And the newspapers-- and the news-- and the politics?"
12793And the donkeys are yours, eh?
12793And the wheat''s been yours all the time, has it?
12793And what, pray, may you design doing with them?
12793And why should I not? 12793 And yer prismatic warter?"
12793Anything_ I_ can do for you?
12793Are you going to this great hop?
12793Awful dark-- isn''t it?
12793Been to dinner to- day?
12793But if I were a sack of gold, do you think you would find me very onerous?
12793But suppose,continued the burden,"I were a shoulder of beef-- which I quite as much resemble-- belonging to some poor family?"
12793But what,said the other,"is the meaning of the rein attached to it?"
12793By what?
12793Den vhere mine vheat is?
12793Did he give you much trouble?
12793Did it ever occur to you that this manner of thing is extremely unpleasant?
12793Did you happen to observe that man standing behind you with a club?
12793Do you really think so, sir?
12793Do you think,replied the Prince,"that I could be so sordid as to accept a single jewel from that glorious crown?
12793Eh?
12793Ever read any fables?
12793Exactly; the ludicrous part is the name of their country, which is--"What?
12793Gomblain? 12793 Got a ticket?"
12793How about the saddle?
12793How about those engagements?
12793How do you?
12793How near are they?
12793How then does it happen that when_ we_ remove the symptoms, the disease is gone?
12793I zay, Yo, where is dis oats I hear zo mooch dalk aboud still?
12793In whose good taste, my adipose censor?
12793Inside what, Sam?
12793Keep still, will you?
12793May I inquire how it happens to be any of your business whether I bellow or bray, or do both-- or neither?
12793Never told you anything about her?
12793Now look here, Hans; that wheat is yours, is it?
12793Now, I''d like to know what is the matter with_ you_?
12793Now, who said anything about your astronomy? 12793 Oyster at home?"
12793Pray how did you manage it?
12793Requires a cat in the place, does it?
12793Suppose,said the burden,"I were a man in a sack; what disposition would you make of me?"
12793Then you mean to eat me?
12793Und how you coom by dot oats pooty soon avhile ago?
12793Vell, den, you goes vetch me back to dot oats so gwicker as a lamb gedwinkle his dail-- hay?
12793Well, suppose I were,answered the man;"do you think_ you_ would like to pluck me?"
12793Well,said Bill Buckster, leaning on his rifle and surveying it critically,"what''s the matter with the pond?
12793Whar''s yer swans?
12793What am I to do with gridirons?
12793What do you mean by snaking, Sam?
12793What have you there on your back?
12793What is the matter with you?
12793What is''too bad?''
12793What''n thunder d''ye mean, you derned saddle- coloured fraud?
12793Who''s there?
12793Why did n''t they hang me?
12793Why do n''t you let your upper apartments to a respectable single party?
12793Why,said the sun,"when you have so much space to float in, should you be casting your cold shadow upon me?"
12793Yes, father, I think it may be a matter of thirty- five years; though it do n''t seem so long, does it? 12793 You mean, do you, to fly in the face of all the moral and social philosophers?"
12793Your excessive politeness quite overcomes me,said the porker,"but do n''t you think it rather ill bestowed upon a pig?

12793or does the rascal rather like it?
12793returned they,"if it is so very late, why are you out riding?"
12793roared the man;"have you no respect for the Human Eye?"
12793said he, thoughtfully;"ai n''t you playin''it on me?"
12793said he, triumphantly, to the flying legion;"did you ever hear of so dutiful and accommodating a son?

12793said she,"how dare you knock over that valuable urn?
12793said the giraffe, looking down,"what are you doing there?"

13815A truce?
13815Afraid? 13815 Ah, Reynard, may I relieve you, then?
13815And are you not afraid of trusting yourself to an element that has proved thus fatal to your family?
13815And wherefore so?
13815And why, then, are you not afraid of trusting yourself to your bed?
13815And you, Jackal, what is your father?
13815And you, Mule, what is your father?
13815Answer this question-- Do our people ever hurt your people? 13815 Are you sure I shall have all the corn at once?"
13815As big as this then?
13815As big as this, my children?
13815As big as this?
13815As this, then?
13815But do you know my little ones?
13815But know you mine?
13815But the Lion held his head high with pride and anger and said,''What are you, oh, small of the small? 13815 But wherein is the wonder?"
13815But which do you think is the greater, the number of the stars or of the fools?
13815But, my dear friend,Vaska says to the Pike,"do you understand that kind of work?
13815Can you prove it?
13815Certainly not,said the Tiger;"why, how in the world could Friend Mouse- deer swallow_ Me_?
13815Dear cousin,said he to her,"how do you do?
13815Do you think I shall be able to see you, at least, in the wood to- morrow?
13815Elf dost thou call me, vile pretender?
13815Go quickly,said the Lion in a rage,"and show me where this vile wretch may be found?"
13815Has not my service glorious Made both of us victorious?
13815Have you no more wit,said a passerby,"than for you and your Son to trudge on foot and let your Ass go light?"
13815Have you seen a Fox pass this way?
13815How are you silly, Reynard?
13815How can I help grieving, unhappy one that I am?
13815How can that strong intrepid mind Attack a weak defenceless kind? 13815 How do you feel to- day, friend Lion?"
13815How many are they?
13815How nothing?
13815How shall I place confidence in thee?
13815How so?
13815How so?
13815How spent you the summer?
13815How strong is the lion? 13815 How?"
13815Hullo, you there,said he,"where do you come from?"
13815If I could paint,said Fox,"I should delight T''anticipate your pleasure at the sight; But come; who knows?
13815If my monotony of song Displeases you, shall I be wrong,The Cuckoo answered,"if I find Your comb has little to my mind?
13815Is he a stouter one than we?
13815Is it because spring has passed away from us, and love with it; that the sun has sunk lower, and that we are nearer to the winter?
13815Is it not hot enough?
13815Is it possible,said the Ass, shaking its ears,"that you do n''t know how it has succeeded in making itself liked, and in becoming distinguished?
13815Is n''t it its tusks that have gotten it into favour?
13815Is''t this?
13815Lion, who is your father?
13815May I depend upon your word?
13815May we depend upon your word?
13815No; do you not remember the woodcutter who could put down five strong men? 13815 Now, friends, can you not see that this place and this food all belong to the Master?
13815Pray, what are you seeking for here?
13815Reynard,said the Peacock,"what have you been doing?"
13815Shall I,says he,"of tender age, In this important care engage?
13815Then how can you expect your little ones to care for you?
13815Then what was the smallest of all creatures of the wilderness that battled with a lion?
13815Thine,says the Lion;"who art thou?"
13815Think you,said he,"your royal name To me worth caring for?
13815This fruit so large, on vine so small,Surveying once, exclaim''d a bumpkin--"What could He mean who made us all?
13815Was it as big as this?
13815Well, Reynard,Said he,"and what scent do you discover here?"
13815Well, not quite always,said the Mastiff;"but what can that matter?"
13815Well, what does that matter? 13815 What death?"
13815What did Ceres do?
13815What do I hear, friend? 13815 What do you mean by muddling the water I am going to drink?"
13815What do you mean?
13815What do you mean?
13815What foe, to frustrate my designs, My schemes thus nightly countermines?
13815What ill fortune have you had, that you have sold nothing all day?
13815What is our food? 13815 What is that mark?"
13815What is to be the stake?
13815What need is there to go to Rhodes for witnesses?
13815What shall I have to do?
13815What sort of a scrape?
13815What sort of protection can you hope for here? 13815 What then?"
13815What then?
13815What use, I pray, of this expense?
13815What was the stake?
13815What will be your reward?
13815What? 13815 Where are you now?"
13815Where is your brilliancy now?
13815Where will you go hereafter?
13815Who art thou?
13815Who art thou?
13815Who is his friend?
13815Who is that one?
13815Who would venture to deny the fact? 13815 Whose voice is that which growls at mine?"
13815Why art thou so sad, dear friend?
13815Why do you do that?
13815Why does the Master treat us so?
13815Why were you turned out?
13815Why, how now, my Son?
13815Why, was it not foolish of me to count the stars in the sky, when I could have counted the stars in your brilliant plumage to better advantage?
13815Why, your majesty, what can be more wonderful than for Fish to escape in lots, each exceeding the other by one?
13815Will you tell your people not to break down the fences and spoil the place and eat our food? 13815 Wo n''t you come inside a little while?
13815Your axe must not be lost,said he:"Now, will you know it when you see?
13815( The Linnet warbled on)--"D''ye hear?
13815("When,"cry the botanists, and stare,"Did plants call''d Sensitive grow there?"
13815--"But say, why doom yourself to sorrow so?"
13815A great cry, however, arose from the people,"And Ceres?
13815A weary theme, and full of pain; For where''s the shade so cool and sweet, Protecting strangers from the heat, But might of such a wrong complain?
13815Am I not active, strong and supple?
13815Am I to blame If men in morals are the same?
13815And how comes it that Moles dare to meddle in the affairs of the king of Birds?
13815And presently the Shark said:"Why have you made the line fast to my tail?"
13815And she asked the King,"Where are all my Chickens?"
13815And since that I have not power even to take leave, how can I endure the load of separation?"
13815And soon he met with the Black Ape, and Friend Ape asked,"Why running so hard, Friend Tiger?
13815And yet I ask the whole world-- Whose work is the finer, mine or that Merchant''s?"
13815And, lest the guilty hear and dread, Shall not the decalogue be read?"
13815Are you hungry?
13815As she went across to the pigs''yard, all the young ones jumped up and grunted,"What are you coming here for?
13815At length, being tired, as well he might, Of standing such a time upright, He to a Monkey near advancing, Exclaimed:"What think you of my dancing?"
13815At this Friend Heron said:"Why does the boat fall off?
13815Bird, where is the Bezoar- stone you promised to bring me, the one that was worth at least a thousand?"
13815Brahmin, what is the reason thou carriest it upon thy shoulder?"
13815But am I free to choose my employment?
13815But could one expect that wise counsel could possibly come from a miserable Mole?"
13815But hence what moral can I bring?
13815But is it becoming that an Eagle should accept advice coming from a Mole in a hole?
13815But tell me, have you already brought up your little ones?
13815But the Mouse- deer answered,"What, Friend Shark, you''ll make a meal off me?
13815But what do I care?
13815But what happens?
13815But what is the good of it if there''s neither warmth nor wear in it?"
13815But what of that?
13815But what then?
13815But whom should he entreat, or compel, or induce by rewards, to instruct the czarevitch to become a czar?
13815But why do you come here, Sii?
13815But why on me those curses thrown?
13815But why should he ponder long over it?
13815By no means; why, we must all die; is not your father dead?"
13815Can I do anything for you?"
13815Can you not always run where you please, then?"
13815Canst thou see the wale of a stick?
13815Did it not tell thee what it was told by me, that thou art still sitting at home although it has become day?"
13815Did not you give us leave to take from the Sheep a trifling contribution for our pelisses in winter?
13815Did you know that you are really a very slow, stupid creature?
13815Do you know that?
13815Do you know what it was?"
13815Do you not think it a good plan to give a Peace Party and settle this trouble?"
13815Do you remember that not long ago our master brought three turtle eggs to feed your children?
13815Do you remember the great lion we saw one day, which Ah- Kay caught?
13815Do you suppose I like to be in jail?
13815Do you want to fight?"

13815Friend Tiger replied,"What do you mean by''so much noise''?
13815Hare comes; he finds them talking; says:"Why are you quarrelling?"
13815Have I come to the vile well of the silly Mosquitoes for wisdom?''
13815Have you any questions to ask?
13815He says:"How shall I do?
13815He was just about to kill and eat it when the bird cried out,"O Grandfather, surely you are not going to eat me?
13815Her friend said:"What dost thou want that thou art come to me?"
13815Hong- Mo said,"What are you doing?
13815How came you to fall in?
13815How can one tell?
13815How can we get our music right?
13815How is this, that you, who are blessed with hands and feet, yield to such sufferings?"
13815How is your helm, Friend Mouse- deer?"
13815How long have you been in the water?
13815How many feet and legs have you?
13815How shall I do?"
13815How shall I punish your impudence?"
13815How shall we kill him?"
13815How should they save their Egg-- and bacon?

13815If a dog were made king, would he not gnaw his shoe straps?''
13815If you like it, and it does you good, why not eat it all up?
13815In the winter, too, while I feed at my ease on the fruit of my toil, what more common than to see your friends dying with cold, hunger, and fatigue?
13815Is there a bird beneath the blue That has more charms than you?
13815Is what I have said not the truth?"

13815Look at the cells-- through every one Does not unvaried sameness run?
13815May I hope to get a pension, and other privileges?
13815My humble friend from danger free, While, weltering in my gore, I''m dying?"
13815Nianga says:"What has done this to thee?"
13815Nianga says:"Where shall I find food?"
13815Not knowing how to guard your own?"
13815Now, how do you wish that I should hold my tail?"
13815Oh, such caressing was there ever?
13815On seeing the little red Ants, our Lord asked them,"Why did you kill the man?"
13815Or melody with such a quaver?
13815Our Lord attended to the request of the Insects, and said to them,"Who will give notice that to- morrow all the Insects are to come?"
13815Presently Father Elephant arrived, and Mother Elephant asked:"What were you sobbing for, Father?
13815Presently the old man said:"Where has that bird got to?
13815Presently, therefore, the Tiger asked the Elephant,"Well, Friend Elephant, would you like to try your luck again?"
13815Said the King- crow to himself:"Who can it be coming up- stream that exclaims so loudly at the rapids?
13815Said the old man,"Do you really mean it?"
13815Seek ye to thrive?
13815Shall every fowl the waters skim Because we Geese are known to swim?
13815Shall haughty man my back bestride?
13815Shall the sharp spur provoke my side?
13815Shall we our servitude retain Because our sires have borne the chain?
13815Shall, then, our nobler jaws submit To foam, and champ the galling bit?
13815Should he choose the Panther?
13815Should he trust him to the Mole?
13815Should it in forward paws be taken, Or roll''d along, or dragg''d?
13815So he turned to the Tiger and said,"Will you have some of this fine grass for your breakfast?"
13815So they said to a Fox, who had been watching the race:"Will you tell us which of us is superior, and which inferior, in the race?"
13815Some people said:"How shall we kill it?"
13815Soon after, he was accosted by one of them in this manner:"Is not that a dog?
13815Suppose I lead him after another Lion?
13815The Cat asked the Hen''s child,"Why did thy mother send thee to me?"
13815The Cat of the old woman inquired:"What sort of a thing may fat meat be?
13815The Cat said to the Hen''s child,"Go and tell thy mother to arise and come at the cockcrowing; for what should eat her?"
13815The Cat said to the Hen,"What art thou afraid of that thou sayest,''I will never come out at night''?
13815The Cattle said:"Who will be the leader of our party and do the inviting?
13815The Crab said:"Would you like to run a race with a stupid creature like me?
13815The Crabs in the holes around came up to him and said:"Friend, why are you wailing so loud?"
13815The Fox bowed respectfully, and stood before the king, who said:"So you are to tell us stories without ceasing?"
13815The Fox said:"Have you ever been out for a walk in the moonlight?"
13815The Goat rose up and, advancing to the mouth of the cave, said,"Will you come back to- morrow?"
13815The Hen arose, and asked it:"Thou child of the Cat, dost thou come to me in peace?"
13815The Hen replied to the Cat:"Dost thou like me for a friend?"
13815The Hen said to her child,"What did the Cat say?
13815The Hen''s child said,"My mother said I must come and ask thee how early shall we go to the neighbouring town?"
13815The Man of Luck and the Man of Pluck A King in the East said to his Minister;"Do you believe in luck?"
13815The Mule asked,"Shall we go to any other place?"
13815The Partridge, void of fear, Begins her friend to jeer:--"You bragg''d of being fleet; How serve you, now, your feet?"
13815The Proud Fox and the Crab One day a Fox said to a Crab:"Crawling thing, did you ever run in all your life?"
13815The Snake replied:"Who deserves more to grieve than I, whose maintenance was from hunting frogs?
13815The Tortoise rejoined;"How can it be that ye should speak with a view to my advantage, and I fail to perform a compact which is for my own good?"
13815The Tortoise wept at the intelligence and piteously exclaimed,"What words are these, and how can existence be supported without sympathizing friends?
13815The bulk which makes a child afraid?
13815The man replied,"''Tis true; And did the Lark to you?"
13815The man said to the Tiger:"If I let you out of the trap will you promise not to attack me?"
13815The people said:"This fellow, how shall we do?
13815The people said:"What shall we kill him with?"
13815The thief asked him:"Who art thou, and whither goest thou?"
13815The young that through your teeth have passed, In file unbroken by a fast, Had they nor dam nor sire?"
13815Then Friend Mouse- deer said,"When does your promise expire?"
13815Then he said,"Do you think I came here myself?
13815Then the King- crow asked:"And what will you stake?"
13815Then the Mule asked his mother,"Will you allow me to go with Sii to see his friend?"
13815Then the Toad said to the Rat,"Didst thou see me?
13815Then they said to him,"Why do you live here so long?
13815There the Hen was standing and the people of the town said to her:"Foolish one, didst thou, a Hen, arise and go to befriend a Cat?
13815They gather, saying:"Why didst thou send for us?"
13815They returned home, called a council together and said:"What shall we do?
13815Think you I tremble at your power or fame?
13815This is all thy run; and wilt thou say that thou canst do more than I?"
13815This is my story which thou hast heard; now, tell me, who art thou and what is thy story?"
13815To this, however, the Mouse- deer replied:"What is the use of eating me, when there''s already plenty of butcher''s meat and to spare?"
13815Was it a bird?"
13815Was it such a return that I expected from them?
13815Were Geese set off with half that show, Would men admire the Peacock?
13815Were we designed for daily toil; To drag the ploughshare through the soil; To sweat in harness through the road; To groan beneath the carrier''s load?
13815What are you complaining about?
13815What are you that you should have a place you call your home and tell me that I may or I may not?''
13815What could be better than a king as the tutor for a prince?
13815What harm had e''er my victims done?
13815What have you done to yourself?"
13815What is it that thou dost want?"
13815What is the cause of it?"
13815What is there in the way?"
13815What makes a bird, I pray?
13815What makes your hair so smooth and beautiful?
13815What more proofs do you want?"
13815What on earth is the matter with him?
13815What see ye, men, in this parade, That food for wonder need be made?
13815What shall we do?"
13815What!--dare_ you_ challenge me to sing, When there''s no voice, however fine, Can match the melody of mine?"
13815When did you find time to build a nest?
13815When he objected his companion exclaimed,"Did we not agree that Whatever plunged down the steps was to be my portion?"
13815When it was gone the Hen arose, called a child of hers, and said:"Go and ask the Cat at what time we shall go to the neighbouring town?"
13815When the Cat of the old woman saw this, it was astonished and cried out, saying:"Thou, whose state is thus pleasant, whence art thou?

13815Who knows how that may turn out for me?
13815Who put me here, do you know?
13815Who told you such a lie?
13815Why did you not give it to me?"
13815Why do some try and not succeed; while others do not try and yet they do succeed?
13815Why do some try and not succeed; while others do not try and yet they do succeed?
13815Why do you children stay out here, when I have given you a good house to live in?"
13815Why do you come?"
13815Why do you not go back to your own place?
13815Why do you not leave me in peace?
13815Why do you want to keep it all to yourself?"
13815Why have some longer life than others?
13815Why have some longer life than others?
13815Why should I go on suffering here in rain and mud, while our Diamond is, men say, in honour there?
13815Why should I with this burden couple?
13815Why so much noise, and why, just when the Rains are upon us, too, do you go fetching such lofty bounds?"
13815Why was it, that, not fearing to sin, the Cuckoo praised the Cock?
13815Why, have I even got the strength to lift it?"
13815Why, then, am I not worthy of confidence?"
13815Why, then, should we seek to die?
13815Wilt play?"
13815Would you not like to take a walk with me?

13815cried the Elephant,"what is to be done in this disaster?
13815cried the Wolf;"pray, you greedy fellow, what greater reward can you possibly require?
13815cried the next person they met;"are you not ashamed to ride and let your poor old Father go on foot?"
13815demanded the Elephant,"and whence comest thou?"
13815do you dare,"she said,"to creep in The very bed I sometimes sleep in, Now, after all the provocation I''ve suffered from your thievish nation?

13815in struggling to repel His ruthless foes, he fell Stabb''d through; and with a bitter sighing, He cried:"Is this the lot they promised me?
13815is that the way you serve Sheep in this part of the country?"
13815my dear brother,"cried he, with affected concern,"can it really be you that I see down there?

13815said the Countryman,"have n''t you the manners to thank your host before you go?"
13815said the Fly to the Ant,"can you for a moment compare yourself with me?
13815said the Lion;"who ever heard of a Gadfly helping a Lion?
13815said the old man;"do you expect me then to let you go?"
13815she cried,"what''s the good of expecting a just reward?
13815the Ass replied;"With heavier burdens will they ride?"
13815the cricket answered;"why, God made them ears who can deny?"
13815the man replies;"Shall Cats with us the game divide?

19993Alas, wife,said the man,"what should we be king for?

19993Alas, wife,said the man,"whatever dost thou want to be king for?
19993Alas, wife,said the man,"why dost thou now want to be emperor?"
19993Alas,said the man,"what am I to go back there for?"
19993Am I to understand you have been doing all the work for me?
19993An''are you sorry for our agreement?
19993An''where would I get''em but in the heads of your own sheep? 19993 And do you blame me, master?"
19993And do you say no more nor that?
19993And how many pounds will you take, sir?
19993And now, what are you doing here?
19993And now, what funny thing was it you saw up yonder on the hillside?
19993And now,asked the Fox,"what are you going to do with all that money?"

19993And what did you take to her?
19993And what did you take to her?
19993And what do you know?
19993And what do you say to me,says Saint Kavin,"for making her the like?"
19993And what good came of it at last?
19993And what have you given her?
19993And what might that one be?
19993And what shall I bring for you, my Beauty?
19993And what trade does he follow?
19993And what was he doing?
19993And what were the words, my Mary, That then you heard them say?
19993And where are they? 19993 And where are you going?"

19993And who else should I mean? 19993 And who may you be, my pretty darling?"
19993And who wo n''t you have, may I be so bold as to ask?
19993And why did you shoulder it?
19993And why were you wearing your sword?
19993And your gold pieces?
19993And,said the wolf,"where does your good Grannie live, little lady?"
19993Are my companions ready?
19993Are you afraid of poison?
19993Are you awake, children?
19993Are you friz?
19993Are you having supper?
19993Are you not very tired?
19993Are you perhaps speaking of me?
19993Are you warm, fair maiden?
19993Are you warm, maiden?
19993Are you warm, maiden?
19993Ay,quoth Jack,"but pray tell me what is the meaning of your captivity?"
19993BUT WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MINE AND TASTED IT ALL UP?
19993Big?
19993Blur- an- agers, how came ye to know about my goose?
19993But are there really any brownies except children?
19993But how is it possible that they could have become so many?
19993But if you do the work, where is the brownie?
19993But is it morning? 19993 But what am I to do under the tree?"
19993But when do you do it?
19993But where is Grannie?
19993But why do n''t the other two do something?
19993But will you gi''me all the ground the goose flew over?
19993Can we gather some of these?
19993Can you tell me,asked Sentaro,"where the hermits live who have the Elixir of Life?"
19993Could you, could you? 19993 Dear friends,"said he,"whence come you?"
19993Did I not say so?
19993Did he not perform every task I required, even that of getting for me the water whereby I shall never grow old?
19993Did n''t I always say so?
19993Did they give him any wages, grandmother?
19993Did they pay for supper?
19993Did you ever see such stupid fellows? 19993 Did you find out the word?"
19993Didst thou not wish for anything then?
19993Do n''t be frightened,said the Beast gently,"but tell me, do you come here of your own free will?"
19993Do n''t the clothes look fine?
19993Do n''t you know me, my darling?
19993Do n''t you wish you could_ see_ him?
19993Do n''t you wish you were going to the ball?
19993Do you hear that, wife, do you hear it?
19993Do you know where you live?
19993Do you only know one story?
19993Do you see that big tree?
19993Do you see that large white house? 19993 Do you think,"asked the King,"that she could be induced to change her mind?"
19993Does he gain much?
19993Does she indeed?
19993Fanny, wouldst thou have the same gift as thy sister?
19993Father,said Jack,"can you lodge a benighted traveler that has lost his way?"
19993For why should I grumble and murmur?
19993For yourself?
19993Gain much? 19993 Give me a piece of your cake and a drink of your wine?"
19993Good day, Master Antonio,said Geppetto;"what are you doing there on the floor?"
19993Good day,replied Grethel,"what treasure do you bring to- day?"
19993Have I not fed you, lodged you, and clothed you, and now you must repay my hospitality by stealing the only thing I care for, my roses?
19993Have you a passport?
19993Have you come for me?
19993Have you got the tinder- box?
19993How can I get it?
19993How can one be merry when one''s neck has been pinched like mine?
19993How can such a ridiculous animal give me rational advice?
19993How can we cross,said Hansel,"for there is no bridge anywhere?"
19993How can you ask me?
19993How come you to be here?
19993How come you to be here?
19993How dare you ride when your poor little boy is walking and can hardly keep pace with you?
19993How do I know that she will not prove to be some old fright?
19993How do you come to know my name?
19993How do you know that?
19993How do you think we toys could live if we had no life but the one we endure at your hands? 19993 How far off is the Field of Miracles?"
19993How have you come to our house?
19993How have you rested?
19993How little was the pellet, uncle?
19993How many are you, then,said I,"If they two are in heaven?"
19993How many fingers before you?
19993How many? 19993 How much money have you, fair Catherine?"
19993How shall I reach home?
19993How shall I set about it?
19993How so?
19993How tiny was the voice, Michael aroon?
19993How was it, then,said the King,"that you came to kill them?"
19993Husband,she said,"hast thou caught nothing to- day?"
19993Husband,she said,"what art thou standing there for?
19993I am King O''Toole,says he,"prince and plennypennytinchery of these parts,"says he;"but how came ye to know that?"
19993I do n''t suppose you could tell me which way to go?
19993I know that you are a great rascal; and where did you get the eyes?
19993I see no cause to repent my choice; You build your nest in the lofty pine, But is your slumber more sweet than mine? 19993 I see our two relations are conversing over there; shall we join them?"
19993I suppose you are a diamond?
19993I want a little wood to make my puppet; will you give me some?
19993I''ll give you whatever you ask,says the King;"is n''t that fair?"
19993I?
19993If you please, ma''am,said he,"will you give me some breakfast?"
19993If you please, ma''am,said he,"would you kindly give me some breakfast?
19993In what way?
19993Is it a tinker you are?
19993Is it far away, in some region old, Where the rivers wander o''er sands of gold? 19993 Is it fearing I wo n''t pay you, you are?"
19993Is it fighting you''ve been? 19993 Is it making game of me you are?
19993Is it possible to hear of anything more dreadful?
19993Is it true that you have killed seven at one blow?
19993Is it under your control?
19993Is it where the feathery palm trees rise, And the date grows ripe under sunny skies? 19993 Is it you, Donald?"
19993Is n''t your Buttercup at home to- day?
19993Is she a good girl?
19993Is that all true?
19993Is that all?
19993Is there any supper, grandmother?
19993Is this splendid castle indeed yours?
19993Is this the royal palace?
19993Is this the way you are mending the path, Jack?
19993Jack, you anointed scoundrel, what do you mean?
19993Jack, you vagabone, do you see what the cows are at?
19993Jack,Margaret whispered,"are you asleep?"
19993Jewels, you say? 19993 May I be permitted to ask if you are of gold?"
19993May I go with you, my pretty maid?
19993May I have supper too? 19993 May I have supper with you?"
19993May I marry your daughter?
19993May I marry your daughter?
19993May I marry your sister?
19993May I marry your sister?
19993May I not creak?
19993May I not sweep?
19993May I try?
19993May we have one to keep?
19993May we have one?
19993Most gracious lord,said the Vizier,"what think you of these dignified long legs, and how would you like to know their chatter?"
19993Must I thank you then,said the king,"Sir Lark, For flying so high and hating the dark?
19993My good fellow,said a townsman whom they met,"is that ass your own?"
19993No,said the man;"what was there to wish for?"
19993Now who is cleverer?
19993Now, Cinderella, can you find a coachman?
19993Now, then, old shaver, what has crossed you?
19993Now, what do you want?
19993Now, what do you want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now, what does she want?
19993Now,said the woman,"is not this worth having?"
19993Of course not, child; but do you know that I have some news for you?
19993Of what use am I to you?
19993Oh Giant,quoth Jack,"where are you now?
19993Oh, dear Beast,she cried,"and are you really dead?
19993Oh, grandmother, where did he go?
19993Oh, heavens, where am I?
19993Oh, must we walk across there?
19993Oh, pray do n''t; why do you wish to do so?
19993Oh, where does faithful Gelert roam, The flower of all his race? 19993 Once for all,"shouted Pinocchio in a rage,"may I know, you ill- educated Parrot, what are you laughing at?"
19993One puppy dog with brown spots on white?
19993Or shall I tell you, children, About Red Riding Hood? 19993 Perhaps a broom- binder?"
19993Pretty? 19993 Prithee,"quoth the giant,"what bad news can come to me?
19993Ripe?
19993Sisters and brothers, little maid, How many may you be?
19993So you stand here all alone and hew, do you?
19993So you''ve come to visit me again, eh? 19993 Supposing you do pay for them,"the people answered,"where is the good of wasting your money in order to free such villains?"
19993That''s it, is it? 19993 The first is: How many drops of water are there in the sea?"
19993The second question,said the King,"is: How many stars are there in the sky?"
19993Then the pardon is granted?
19993Then you would have it that it was I?
19993Then,said the door,"Broom, why do you sweep?"
19993Then,said the window,"Door, why do you jar?"
19993There is a large gray rat in the rat- trap-- would he do, Godmother?
19993To whom does it belong?
19993WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MY SOUP?
19993Was it you, Woodpecker,said the King,"who sounded the war- gong?"
19993Was she dreaming herself now?
19993Was there no escape from the underground home?
19993Well then, neighbor Geppetto,said the carpenter, to prove that peace was made,"what is the favor that you wish of me?"

19993Well, Turkey- lurkey, where are you going?
19993Well, honest man,says the King,"and how is it you make your money so aisy?"
19993Well, now,said Peter and Paul,"have you found out where the water comes from?
19993Well, then,said the Fox,"you are quite decided to go home?
19993Well, was it so big?
19993Well, what was it, so rare and strange,said Peter and Paul,"that you saw up there at the top of the rock?"
19993Well, what would you say if I told you that it was as small as a humming bird''s egg? 19993 Well, who can know?
19993Well,said the fox,"but what sign shall we appoint?"
19993Were they of good birth?
19993What am I to do here? 19993 What are these three questions?"
19993What are they about?
19993What are you crying for, child?

19993What are you going to do with the tinder- box, just tell me that?
19993What are you thinking of? 19993 What are you to do?
19993What are you yawning for now, you big fellow?
19993What can I do for you, my poor children?

19993What is it?
19993What is the purpose of this man?

19993What is your fortune, my pretty maid?

19993What must I do for you,he said,"to make you stay with us here and be happy?"
19993What name shall I give him?
19993What pretty work you are doing there, Goody? 19993 What shall it be, my children?
19993What shall we do now?
19993What sort of animal has made this?
19993What was your work?
19993What wonder is it, pray, that a woodcutter should stand and hack up on a hillside?
19993What would bring them there?
19993What''ll you take for that hide?
19993What''s going to be done?
19993What''s that I heard you say? 19993 What''s the matter, friends?"
19993What''s the matter? 19993 What''s the meaning of this?"
19993What?

19993Why, who is that?
19993Why, you are the kingdom, are you not?
19993Why?
19993Why?
19993Wife,said the man, looking at her,"art thou now pope?"
19993Will you be my bride?
19993Will you let us set out a pan of water for the brownie, father?
19993Will you now make my master the happiest of kings?
19993Will you show me the sea, then?
19993Will you take a gold piece?
19993Would you have it then, that it was I? 19993 Would you like to make out of your five miserable gold pieces, a hundred, a thousand, two thousand?"
19993Would you not like to bring them their eyes again? 19993 Yes, so I am; now, is not that a pretty trade?"
19993Yes,said the field- mouse;"what can a bird do but sing?
19993You crow through marrow and bone,said the ass;"what do you do that for?"
19993You must call them''squibs and crackers,''And what would you call her?
19993You say that two at Conway dwell, And two are gone to sea, Yet ye are seven?--I pray you tell, Sweet maid, how this may be?
19993You wo n''t go back o''your word?
19993Your souls? 19993 _ Half- out!_ What do you mean?
19993_ Puppy_ dogs?
19993_ Top- off!_replied the mouse;"that is a curious and remarkable name; is it common in your family?"

19993***** THE LARK AND ITS YOUNG ONES A child went up to a lark, and said,"Good lark, have you any young ones?"
19993***** THE TINDER- BOX BY HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN A story about a tinder- box?

19993***** WHAT DOES LITTLE BIRDIE SAY?
19993***** WHERE DO ALL THE DAISIES GO?
19993***** What are little boys made of, made of?
19993A courtier went round the King, and said,"Sire, may I have the prize?"
19993A girl, seeing them, cried,"Why walk when you can ride?"
19993A little girl passing by with a water- pitcher saw it shaking, and asked:"Why do you shake yourself, little tree?"
19993A man goes riding by, Late at night when the fires are out, Why does he gallop and gallop about?
19993ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON***** BABY- LAND Which is the way to Baby- Land?
19993ARTHUR THOMAS QUILLER- COUCH***** LIMERICKS There was an Old Man in a tree, Who was horribly bored by a Bee; When they said,"Does it buzz?"
19993Accordingly he called together the foxes and said:"How is it that you still wear your tails?
19993After some more talk the King says,"What are you?"
19993Again he asked,"Are you still warm, dear maiden?"
19993Again the Sparrow brought out two wicker baskets, and asked as before,"Will you take the heavy one, or shall I give you the light one?"
19993Ah, now, could n''t you take me with you?"
19993Ai n''t you sorry for him?
19993Aladdin and his Lamp?
19993All that other folks can do, With your patience should not you?
19993And Fox- lox said:"Where are you going?"
19993And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day?
19993And instead of two thousand supposing I found five thousand?
19993And is n''t it, my boy or girl, The wisest, bravest plan, Whatever comes, or does n''t come, To do the best you can?
19993And now tell me, girls, what shall I bring you when I come back?"
19993And once when the queen asked her Looking- glass:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is the fairest of all?"
19993And suppose the world do n''t please you, Nor the way some people do, Do you think the whole creation Will be altered just for you?
19993And the Middling- sized Bear cried, in a Middling- sized Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR?"
19993And the Middling- sized Bear, seeing that the coverlet was all rumpled, cried out, in a Middling- sized Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED?"
19993And then the door asked:"Why are you screaming, Flea?"
19993And then?
19993And this, now,"showing the fire,"what would you call this?"
19993And what did they want?"
19993And what do you call all this?"
19993And what do you call these?"
19993And what do you think happened?
19993And what do you think he did?
19993And what do you think they are doing?
19993And what would you call this?"
19993And what, this?"
19993And when she asked of the Looking- glass at home:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all?"
19993And when the Mouse- deer came into the presence of the King, the King inquired of the Otter,"What is your charge against him?"
19993And when the lady had ceased to speak, the King said:"Connla, my son, has thy mind been moved by the words of the lady?"
19993And where do you think she played?
19993And where do you think she slept?
19993And where was Grannie all this time, you will say?
19993And why does that wheel go whirr, whirr, whirr?"
19993And would n''t it be nicer For you to smile than pout, And so make sunshine in the house When there is none without?
19993And would n''t it be nobler To keep your temper sweet, And in your heart be thankful You can walk upon your feet?
19993And would n''t it be pleasanter To treat it as a joke, And say you''re glad''twas Dolly''s, And not your head that broke?
19993And would n''t it be wiser Than waiting, like a dunce, To go to work in earnest And learn the thing at once?
19993And ye do n''t know what this same gloomery is?
19993And your papa and your mamma, are they still alive?"
19993Are they nice apples?"
19993Are you a beast of field and tree, Or just a stronger child than me?
19993Are you a tailor?"
19993Are you sorry for hiring me, master?"
19993Are you sorry for it?"
19993Are you sorry for our agreement?"
19993Are you still warm, my dear?"
19993As she did so, she heard-- what could it be?
19993As soon as the Great Big Bear looked at his bed, he cried out, in his Great Big Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED?"
19993At last Margaret said:"But where is Santa Claus?
19993At last he spoke to the sisters, and asked:"To whom does this beautiful tree belong?
19993At six o''clock the wolf came to the little pig''s house and said:"Little pig, are you ready?"
19993At this the streamlet, from which she drew the water, asked:"Why do you break your pitcher, my little girl?"
19993But he did n''t care a bit for that; up he climbed, and when he got near the top, what do you think he saw?
19993But how could she get it?
19993But how was he going to find the way into the castle, that was the question?
19993But in what way?"
19993But is n''t he wise-- To jes''dream of stars, as the doctors advise?
19993But the Teeny Tiny Bear cried out in a Teeny Tiny Voice of anger:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR, AND SAT THE BOTTOM OUT?"
19993But the Teeny Tiny Bear cried out, in a Teeny Tiny Voice of astonishment:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED AND LIES THERE STILL?"
19993But they with gentle faces Sit quietly apart; What room have they for sorrowing While fairy minstrels sit and sing Close to each listening heart?
19993But what am I to give you, old witch?
19993But what became of the poor fox?
19993But what could the little fish do to help Thumbelina?
19993But what would the Queen have said if she had known that what the Princess told them was no dream, but something that had really and truly happened?
19993But when did that happen?
19993But when they had gone a good bit she grew weary, and asked,"How far is it off to Snoring?"
19993But where have you bought that fine goose?"
19993But why do you want a baby?
19993But yet, being hungry, he did not wish to go without his dinner; so to make all as safe as he could, he cried:"Where are all the little crabs gone?
19993CHARLES KINGSLEY***** FOREIGN LANDS Up into the cherry tree Who should climb but little me?
19993Can anyone be hidden inside it?
19993Can the cruel Wolf have eaten her up?"
19993Can you guess who they were?...
19993Could he lift him?
19993Could it be the swallow?
19993Could the bird be alive?
19993Did I say alone?
19993Did n''t you know that?"
19993Did n''t you know, you bosthoon, that when I said''holding the plow,''I meant reddening[ plowing up] the ground?"
19993Did n''t you see the gold with your own two eyes?"
19993Did you not meet them?"
19993Did you sing to me through the long summer days, when the leaves were green and the sky was blue?
19993Do n''t you know any about bacon and tallow candles-- a store- room story?"
19993Do n''t you think so, you old Fir Tree?"
19993Do tell me?"
19993Do you blame me for what I have done?"
19993Do you blame me, sir?"
19993Do you know how hard a hermit''s life is?
19993Do you know how many children Go to little beds at night, And without a care or sorrow, Wake up in the morning light?
19993Do you know how many clouds Ev''ry day go floating by?
19993Do you know how many stars There are shining in the skies?
19993Do you know what this story teaches you?
19993Do you think that you would ever have the patience or the endurance to live a hermit''s life?
19993EDWARD LEAR***** PRECOCIOUS PIGGY Where are you going to, you little pig?
19993Every one flocked round to see him, and being carried to the King, he was asked who he was-- whence he came-- and where he lived?
19993FRANCIS C. WOODWORTH***** FOR A''THAT AND A''THAT Is there for honest poverty Wha hangs his head, and a''that?
19993GEORGE MACDONALD***** WHERE ARE YOU GOING, MY PRETTY MAID?
19993Green leaves a- floating, Castles of the foam, Boats of mine a- boating-- Where will all come home?
19993Had they not sung to her and fluttered round her all the long glad summer days?
19993Has n''t it kept me and mine for years?"
19993Have n''t I killed seven at one blow?
19993Have n''t I slain two giants, a unicorn, and a wild boar?
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you anything to give?"
19993Have you been there?
19993Have you got a baby to give me?"
19993Have you never heard how water rises from a spring in the earth?"
19993He asked,"What reward will be given to the man who kills Cormoran?"
19993He called to speak to the master in the haggard, and said he,"What are servants asked to do in this country after aten their supper?"
19993He heard the goose- girl say,"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993He looked down at her as she stood by his horse, and said:"Little Two Eyes, what shall I give you for this?"
19993He rubbed his eyes and said:"Alas, wife, what didst thou say?"
19993He said to her:"What will you call me?"
19993He said to the fox,"May I go into the sea?"
19993He sputtered it out, and cried,"Man o''the house, is n''t it a great shame for you to have any one in the room that would do such a nasty thing?"
19993He stood before her, and said,"Alas, wife, art thou now king?"
19993He then asked:"And where did my good friends say they would wait for me?"
19993He then asked:"Is there anything else to be done?"
19993He turned round, and what did he see?
19993Her hair stood on end; she panted for breath, and screamed:"I wo n''t bear it any longer; wilt thou go?"
19993Her husband stood still, and said,"Wife, art thou now emperor?"
19993His eyes glistened and for the last time he asked,"Are you warm, now, beautiful maiden?
19993His old favorite sadly knelt and kissed his hand, saying:"Sire, how have I offended?"
19993How are you?"
19993How can I feed my hungry little ones when we have no food for ourselves?"
19993How could she reach the shore?
19993How could she say good- by for ever to the beautiful sunshine?
19993How could she tell which door she had marked?
19993How could the King refuse so harmless a request?
19993How dare you ask me how I am getting on?
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you do?"
19993How do you manage yours?"
19993How grieved she was, too, for had she not lost her little friend the butterfly?
19993How many arts are you master of?"
19993How slow its pace; and then its hue-- Who ever saw so fine a blue?"
19993However long he lived here, life would always be the same, so was it not foolish and wearisome to stay on here for ever?
19993Hungry?
19993Hurrah for the pumpkin- pie?
19993I am not a brownie, am I?"
19993I have one which is a little damaged indeed, but for which I would ask nothing more than your goose; would that suit you?"
19993I have within my pantry good store of all that''s nice; I''m sure you''re very welcome-- will you please to take a slice?"
19993I wonder if trees will come out of the forest to look at me?
19993I''ve as many legs as you: Why ca n''t we walk on two?"
19993I''ve been to London To look at the Queen Pussy- cat, pussy- cat, What did you there?
19993III"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling Your ring?"
19993If I have money as often as I feel in my pocket, what else shall I have to care about?"
19993If it were only not so dark here, and so terribly solitary!--not even a little hare?
19993If we strive,''tis no disgrace Though we may not win the race; What should you do in that case?
19993Immediately the Beast opened his eyes, sighed, and said:"Beauty, will you marry me?"
19993In me he delighted, By him I was knighted; Did you never hear of Sir Thomas Thumb?"
19993In spite of being cross at Meg''s having run away, Nurse had to laugh; then she bent down and said,"But what made you run away like this, Miss Meg?"
19993In the meanwhile, during the night, the gold piece will grow and flower, and in the morning when you return to the field, what do you find?
19993In the spring, when the Swallows and the Stork came, the Tree asked them,"Do you know where they were taken?
19993Is anything wrong, that you do not speak?"
19993Is it nice and warm?
19993Is it possible that this piece of wood can have learnt to cry and to lament like a child?
19993Is it there, sweet mother, that better land?"
19993Is it where the flower of the orange blows, And the fireflies dance through the myrtle boughs?"
19993Is it you?"
19993Is the pudding done?
19993Is this Sunday?"
19993JAMES MERRICK***** THE BLACKBERRY GIRL"Why, Phebe, are you come so soon?
19993Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, How many were going to St. Ives?
19993LEWIS CARROLL***** WHERE GO THE BOATS?
19993Little Robin Redbreast jumped upon a wall, Pussy- cat jumped after him, and almost got a fall; Little Robin chirped and sang, and what did pussy say?
19993Little Snow- white looked out of the window and called out:"Good- day, my good woman, what have you to sell?"
19993Margaret, do n''t you wish you could see Santa Claus?
19993May I make bold to ask how is your goose, King O''Toole?"
19993May n''t Massachusetts prove as great As any other sister state?
19993Maybe you''re sorry for your bargain?"
19993Meanwhile he was thinking to himself:"And if instead of a thousand gold pieces, I was to find on the branches of the tree two thousand?...
19993Mother opened the gate and said,--"Well, what have you seen to- day?"
19993Next they met a herd of cattle, and again to the King''s question,"To whom do they belong?"
19993No?
19993Not having so much as a fish- bone to give to him, what did my friend, who has really the heart of a Cæsar, do?
19993Now the mole was very wise and very clever, but how could little Thumbelina ever care for him?
19993Now the question to be settled was, who should undertake to fasten the bell round the Cat''s neck?
19993Now there was a fine large walnut- tree growing by the cottage, and the tree said to the form:"Form, why do you run round the house?"
19993Now there was an old form outside the house, and when the window creaked, the form said:"Window, why do you creak?"
19993Now what will you have?"
19993Now, Nursey, what makes you remind me?
19993Now, do n''t be a dog in the manger, for, if_ you_ get all you want, what can it matter to you if_ I_ am rich or poor?"
19993Now, do you know where your brother is?"
19993Now, next the ashes there grew a tree, which asked:"Little heap, why do you burn?"
19993Now, the third little pig met a man with a load of bricks and mortar, and he said:"Please, man, will you give me those bricks to build a house with?"
19993O gholes, You queer little drolls, Do you mean....?"
19993O you that are so strong and cold, O blower, are you young or old?
19993Of what use are they?
19993Oh arriving he saw that his children had been killed, and exclaimed,"How comes it, Friend Mouse- deer, that my babies have died?"
19993Oh do n''t you remember the babes in the wood?"
19993Oh, who are so happy as we?"
19993Oh, you think it was smaller than that?
19993Once, in the midst of her sorrow she looked up, and saw a woman standing near her who said,"What are you weeping for, little Two Eyes?"
19993One day the King happened to be passing the tower and heard him exclaim:"I am the King''s most faithful subject; how have I incurred his displeasure?"
19993Only the Fir Tree was quite silent, and thought,"Shall I not be in it?
19993Or how sweet Cinderella went So gaily to the ball?"
19993Or shall I tell the story Of Puss in Boots-- the scamp?
19993Or what befell those little Babes Who wandered in the Wood?
19993Or would you like to hear the tale Of Blue Beard, fierce and grim?
19993Or, where''s the boy but three feet high Who''s made improvement more than I?
19993Or, where''s the town, go far or near, That does not find a rival here?
19993Out came the cobbler:"How much for your hides, my men?"
19993Out came the tanner:"How much for your hides, my good men?"
19993Perhaps I may marry a Princess too?"
19993Pif- paf Poltrie, what trade are you?
19993Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day in the morning?
19993Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
19993Pray, what do I want with a hundred men?
19993Presently the wise woman stood again before her, and said,"Little Two Eyes, why do you weep?"
19993Presently the wolf asked:"Why are you running about so, you fox, jumping in and out?"
19993Prince, have you come at last?
19993Quoth he,"What news with my poor cousin Jack?"
19993ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** A LOBSTER QUADRILLE"Will you walk a little faster?"
19993ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** THE SPIDER AND THE FLY"Will you walk into my parlor?"
19993SYDNEY DOBELL***** THE DEATH AND BURIAL OF COCK ROBIN Who killed Cock Robin?
19993Said the cunning spider to the fly:"Dear friend, what can I do To prove the warm affection I''ve always felt for you?
19993See here, now, could we not be king over all this land?
19993Shall I grow fast here, and stand adorned in summer and winter?"
19993Shall I have nothing to do in it?"
19993Shall we not seek it and weep no more?
19993She took him by the hand, and said:"Come and look in here-- isn''t this much better?"
19993Snapping his fingers in her lovely face, he asked:"Do you know who I am?
19993So Mrs. Stone only asked,"Where were you going when you came to my house?"
19993So Nora turned the key at once, and out stepped----""A fairy, Michael?"
19993So all ended well, and what more could anyone wish?
19993So he called out:"Little house, pretty house, my sweet little house, why do you not give an answer when I call?
19993So, as he went up and up, the brook got smaller and smaller, and at last, a little way farther on, what do you think he saw?
19993Suppose that some boys have a horse, And some a coach and pair, Will it tire you less while walking To say,"It is n''t fair?"
19993Suppose you''re dressed for walking, And the rain comes pouring down, Will it clear off any sooner Because you scold and frown?
19993Suppose your task, my little man, Is very hard to get, Will it make it any easier For you to sit and fret?
19993Suppose, my little lady, Your doll should break her head, Could you make it whole by crying Till your eyes and nose are red?
19993Surely you do not hang sheep?"
19993That vagabond, bad luck to him----""You mean Donald O''Neary?"
19993That, I suppose, would be quite impossible?"
19993The Jogi, seeing the lad, called out fiercely,"What do you want here?"
19993The King was astonished and asked:"What does this all mean?"
19993The Queen, at home, went in front of the Glass, and said:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is the fairest of all?"
19993The Wind he took to his revels once more; On down, In town, Like a merry- mad clown, He leaped and hallooed with whistle and roar--"What''s that?"
19993The fifth,"Who has been using my fork?"
19993The first said,"Who has been sitting on my chair?"
19993The flounder came swimming up, and said:"Well, what do you want?"
19993The fourth,"Who has been eating my fruit?"
19993The giant cried out again,"Art thou that villain who killed my kinsmen?
19993The giant roared out at this like thunder,"Who''s there?"
19993The giant turned round, and seeing nobody but the little tailor there, he cried with scorn:"And what might you be doing here, might I ask?
19993The horseman, who heard this, pulled up and cried,"Hullo, Hans why do you trudge on foot?"
19993The journey was made so entertaining for the Princess that she one day said to Charming:"Why did I not make you King, and remain in my own country?"
19993The latch was lifted, and a voice said,--"Have you seen a little girl in a white frock pass this way?"
19993The next morning they again came to the gate where Falada''s head was nailed, and the goose- girl said as before:"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993The next morning, when she and Curdken drove their geese under the gate, the Princess wrung her hands and cried:"O Falada, hang you there?"
19993The old woman nodded her head to them, and said:"Who brought you here, my pets?
19993The same fond mother bent at night O''er each fair, sleeping brow; She had each folded flower in sight: Where are those sleepers now?
19993The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?"
19993The seventh,"Who has been drinking out of my mug?"
19993The sixth,"Who has been cutting with my knife?"
19993The third,"Who has been taking some of my bread?"
19993The three little kittens washed their mittens, And hung them out to dry; O mother dear, Do not you hear, That we have washed our mittens?
19993The wolf said,"What is the sea?"
19993The young Prince set out on his journey, but he sighed and felt very sorrowful, for where was he to find the golden horse?
19993Then Jock said,"_ Little_ dogs?"
19993Then Tatty sat down and wept, and a three- legged stool said:"Tatty, why do you weep?"
19993Then a broom in the corner of the room said:"Stool, why do you hop?"
19993Then he asked the third:"Why have you such a big thumb?"
19993Then he looked at her for some time, and said,"Alas, wife, how much better off art thou for being emperor?"
19993Then he said:"Little Two Eyes, can you break off a branch of the tree for me?"
19993Then he said:"Whatever are you three doing, sitting there crying, and letting the beer run all over the floor?"
19993Then he went to the second, and asked:"Why have you such an overhanging lip?"
19993Then she asked,"Who will take this wheat to the mill?"
19993Then the King commanded the Great Lizard to be summoned, and when he arrived, the King inquired,"Was it you, Lizard, wearing your sword?"
19993Then the King said unto the Mouse- deer,"Was it your doing that the Otter''s children were killed?"
19993Then the King sent for the Crayfish, and said,"Was it you, Crayfish, who was shouldering your lance?"
