6438 | THE MORAL: In the early spring A pumpkin- tree would be a thing Most gratifying to us all, But how about the early fall? |
6438 | The oak lay prone when the storm was done, While the rush, still quite erect, Remarked aside,"What under the sun Could one expect?" |
6438 | The rush was a proud patrician, and He retorted,"Do n''t you know, What the veriest boor should understand, That''Hi''is low?" |

20510 | A Hard Life, say you? |
20510 | And cynical? |
20510 | Aye, that is Blood gauming up the Scuppers, but is the Captain chicken- hearted? |
20510 | Could aught be more Piteous than to Witness a proud and haughty Income tottering along the Street, searching in vain for a Workingman''s Appetite? |

11930 | Are you a Yankee? |
11930 | Before I give you the Photograph of Myself which you requested last Night, would you care for anything in the way of Ice Water? |
11930 | But why Tear yourself away? |
11930 | Did I request a Photograph? |
11930 | Did he Call you Down? |
11930 | Did we go back there again? 11930 Has Edmund about finished his Fall Plowing?" |
11930 | How much does one of''em Fetch? |
11930 | I am Through,replied Jim,"So why Tarry?" |
11930 | Is n''t it a Bore? 11930 Is tha- a- at so- o- o?" |

11930 | Why do you ever come back? |
11930 | Why do you think so? |
11930 | Yes, but did you hear him use''Cahn''t''and''Glass''both in the same Sentence? 11930 You mean the Young Woman who was here a moment ago?" |
11930 | At 8:30 P.M. the Lady President stood out and began to read a few Pink Thoughts on"Woman''s Destiny-- Why Not?" |
11930 | Did he Fear that she would get next to his Past? |
11930 | Did n''t you hear him just now when he was complaining to the Porter because the Sun was on the wrong side of the Car?" |
11930 | Do I Eat?" |
11930 | Else why should he try to Fix her? |
11930 | Huh? |
11930 | Instead of Countering with the usual Gibe, he told her that she was the Only Woman he had ever Loved and would she go to a Show that Evening? |
11930 | So why should she have the Honor of entertaining the Club at the Annual Meeting? |
11930 | Was he an Englishman or an American? |
11930 | What had he been Doing that he should attempt to Coddle her into a Forgiving Mood? |
11930 | What was the Ulterior Motive? |
11930 | Why had he given her the Con Speech and all that Money? |
11930 | Will you Explain it to me?" |
11930 | Would Lutie sing such Trash? |
11930 | You saw her?" |
11930 | [ Illustration: ANCESTOR]"Then you are an Englishman?" |
11930 | [ Illustration: BABY] Then she would Fan herself rapidly and ask,"Are n''t you well, Dear?" |
20718 | And tell me, Sage, what became of the ear? |
20718 | And the man? |
20718 | And what was the good of all that? |
20718 | And what will be the end? |
20718 | And what will the Cockatoo do? |
20718 | But was it worth while to sell this rare thing for a very ordinary one? |
20718 | But what will be the very end? |
20718 | But who_ really_ benefited by all this? |
20718 | It 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? |
20718 | More so than if it returned your caresses? |
20718 | So you have come back? |
20718 | Then what will happen now? |
20718 | Then what_ could_ be the pleasure of it all? |
20718 | Upon an insensible object? |
20718 | Well? |
20718 | Well? |
20718 | Were you not content with my last utterances? |
20718 | What do you want now? |
20718 | What next? |
20718 | Why 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?" |
20718 | And what should the woman do?" |
20718 | And why does the fruit taste bitter in the mouth?" |
20718 | Now tell me, Sage, should the woman go on to the end and find perhaps a stone? |
20718 | Now tell me, Sage, which was right-- the man or the Tiger?" |
20718 | Or should she try to rewind the silk? |
20718 | S. C._ THE DAMSEL AND THE SAGE And the Damsel said to the Sage:"Now, what is life? |
20718 | Surely that is waste of time?" |
20718 | Tell me, Damsel-- you who ask questions and answer them finally yourself-- tell me, What did the Fish do?" |
20718 | Tell 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?" |
20718 | The 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? |
20718 | The thought came to her,''What if it should not be silk all through and I have come to the end of matters? |
20718 | What does it all mean, Sage?" |
20718 | What shall I do?'' |
20718 | What then?" |
20718 | Which is the best course?" |
20718 | Why did the man do this?" |
20718 | Why was this, Sage? |
20718 | Why was this, Sage?" |
20718 | Will you not come out and sit in the sun while you answer?" |
19994 | Did you see how I made them run? |
19994 | Do n''t you go wherever you please? |
19994 | Do you ever get anywhere? |
19994 | Do you pretend to know more than I? 19994 Do you really think you can provide for me?" |
19994 | Do 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?" |
19994 | Have n''t you got it? 19994 Have you heard the wonderful news?" |
19994 | Have you no manners? 19994 How could I have done so?" |
19994 | Is that the Ostrich you talked about? |
19994 | Is that the thanks I get for feeding you and treating you so well? |
19994 | Is this your axe? |
19994 | Is this your constancy? |
19994 | Making music, were you? |
19994 | Oho, what have we here? |
19994 | Very smart, are n''t you? 19994 Was he as big as this?" |
19994 | What are_ you_ afraid of? |
19994 | What did he tell you? |
19994 | What have you Wheels to complain about so loudly? 19994 What have you to compare with this? |
19994 | What is it you see? |
19994 | What is it? |
19994 | What is that on your neck? |
19994 | What makes you squeal like that? |
19994 | What must I do? |
19994 | What news? |
19994 | What use is it,said another,"to read the stars, when you ca n''t see what''s right here on the earth?" |
19994 | Who taught you to divide so fairly? |
19994 | Why are you doing that? |
19994 | Why do you do that? |
19994 | Why do you do that? |
19994 | Why do you look so woebegone? |
19994 | Why do you run? 19994 Why is there always this hostility between us?" |
19994 | You are a citizen of illustrious Athens, are you not? |
19994 | You think you are extremely clever, do n''t you? |
19994 | But let me ask one question: Who will bell the Cat?" |
19994 | But what''s the difference?" |
19994 | But where are your wits?" |
19994 | Can Mice fly? |
19994 | Can it be a crime to eat sheep, such stupid mutton heads? |
19994 | Can you guess who it was that our young Mouse was trying to describe to his mother? |
19994 | Did you buy it, or did the Shepherd make you a gift of it? |
19994 | Do you think you can move the wagon by simply looking at it and whining about it? |
19994 | Do you want everybody to know what a disgraceful and ill- natured Dog you are?" |
19994 | Is it his great size that makes your eyes pop out? |
19994 | Is n''t it enough that I let you take your head out of my mouth without snapping it off?" |
19994 | Is there any special food you eat, or is it some divine nectar that makes you sing so wonderfully?" |
19994 | Or is it his wrinkled hide? |
19994 | Pray tell me, how did you get it?" |
19994 | Pray tell me, how do your visitors find their way out again?" |
19994 | The Lion looked back, but as the Wolf was too far away to be taught a lesson without too much inconvenience, he said:"Your property? |
19994 | There in that hole? |
19994 | What in the world were you doing all last summer?" |
19994 | When the Frog saw the Mouse, he swam to the bank and croaked:"Wo n''t you pay me a visit? |
19994 | Where now his strength and his former graceful beauty? |
19994 | Why did you not keep it in the house where you could easily get it when you had to buy things?" |
19994 | Why did you put it there? |
19994 | Why 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?" |
19994 | cried Jupiter"Are you not yet content? |
19994 | cried the Ants in surprise,"have n''t you stored anything away for the winter? |
19994 | he asked very respectfully,"that has given you such beautiful voices? |
19994 | they said laughing,"what do you call it, father?" |
21446 | Ah, poor Reynard,says he,"I am sorry for you with all my heart; how could you possibly come into this melancholy condition?" |
21446 | But this surely will? |
21446 | Cousin,says the Fox,"what is it that you look at so earnestly?" |
21446 | Nay, pray cousin, do not go,says the Cock,"I am just coming down; surely you are not afraid of Dogs in these peaceable times?" |
21446 | No,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?" |
21446 | Shall I,says he,"of tender age, In this important care engage? |
21446 | The delicious story of Dicksy, Flapsy and Picksey-- who can have forgotten it? 21446 What,"says one of them,"Brother, do you hang Sheep?" |
21446 | Why was this idle charge? |
21446 | Will this? |
21446 | A 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? |
21446 | A Rat, who saw her lab''ring steps, Cried out,"Where in this hurry, pray? |
21446 | After puffing and swelling for some time,"What think you,"said she, to her young ones,"will this do?" |
21446 | And have you the conscience to demand a further reward?" |
21446 | And what''s a Butterfly? |
21446 | And why the plum''s inviting blue? |
21446 | Are those poor sweepings of a groom, That filthy sight, that nauseous fume, Meet objects here? |
21446 | But doth not he divide the care, Through all the labours of the year? |
21446 | But, pray( for I''m extremely dry), Know you of any water nigh?" |
21446 | Cousin Wolf, what say you to this matter?" |
21446 | Do 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? |
21446 | Have I not suffered you safely to draw your neck out of my jaws? |
21446 | He that is capable of injuring his benefactor, what would he scruple to do towards another? |
21446 | How can you bear to live in this nasty, dirty, melancholy hole here, with nothing but woods and meadows, mountains and rivulets about you? |
21446 | I marry without more ado; My dear Dick Redcap, what say you?" |
21446 | Or did she doubt my heart was brave, And, therefore, this injunction gave? |
21446 | Or does her harvest store the place, A treasure for her younger race? |
21446 | Shall haughty men my back bestride? |
21446 | Shall the sharp spur provoke my side? |
21446 | Shall we our servitude retain, Because our sires have borne the chain? |
21446 | Shall, then, our nobler jaws submit To foam and champ the galling bit? |
21446 | She was resolved to change, that''s poz; Could she be worse than where she was? |
21446 | So you see how you are to live.--Come, come along; what is the matter with you?" |
21446 | Speak out, silly Horse, would you wish to be him?" |
21446 | The 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? |
21446 | The Dog the parley thus begun:--"How can that strong, intrepid mind Attack a weak, defenceless kind? |
21446 | Were they to feast his taste designed, That vermin, of voracious kind? |
21446 | Were 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? |
21446 | What does he do in this sad plight? |
21446 | Who ever saw so fine a blue?" |
21446 | Why glows the peach with crimson hue? |
21446 | Why thus insulted, thus disgraced, And that vile Dunghill near me placed? |
21446 | Why wake you to the morning''s care? |
21446 | Why with new arts correct the year? |
21446 | cries the other, in a fury,--"Why, sir, d''ye think I''ve lost my eyes?" |
21446 | my good friend, are you there? |
21446 | said he,"why will ye learn so soon to be cruel? |
21446 | says he,"but what avails my silent, unmeaning beauty, when I am so far excelled in voice?" |
21446 | says he,"why so sparing of your litter? |
21446 | what is that?" |
16688 | And when no flower is seen Upon the hill and plain, Who''ll make it all so green, And bring the flowers again? |
16688 | And will my flowers come, too? |
16688 | Father, when people die, Will they come back in May? |
16688 | My 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? |
16688 | Tell me, who may her sewer be? 16688 Tell on; who are her faithful guards?" |
16688 | Tell on; who is her minstrel free? |
16688 | What, 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? |
16688 | And brings them back in May, When there is no more snow? |
16688 | And 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? |
16688 | And can I, free and unconfined, Taste of the joys that still are dear? |
16688 | And can I, may I, silent be? |
16688 | And can it be I am possessed Of something brighter far? |
16688 | And when I shall be sick and old, O, then will God be nigh? |
16688 | And who cupbearer, too?" |
16688 | Are all things here so bright and fair, And has he with a loving care My happy being given? |
16688 | Before 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? |
16688 | Echo from shore to shore? |
16688 | Frail pledges of the contrite heart, Wherefore so soon decay? |
16688 | Glows there a light within this breast Outshining every star? |
16688 | Have I been gentle, lowly, meek, And the small voice of conscience heard? |
16688 | Have 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? |
16688 | How did this nonsense first begin? |
16688 | How is it that we such multitudes raise? |
16688 | How shall it ever utterance find For all itself hath taught? |
16688 | I''m rather short and thick,''tis true; Who''d be so long and thin as you? |
16688 | If I am hungry, poor, and cold, Then will he hear my cry? |
16688 | In 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? |
16688 | My mother calls me her good boy, My father calls me brave; What wicked action have I done That I should be a slave? |
16688 | Our tears they will flow; But do we not know That thou art released from all pain? |
16688 | Perhaps the whole mischief is caused by the air, And who''gainst this evil can ever prepare? |
16688 | Praise 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? |
16688 | Senseless things have found a voice; Shall this throbbing heart be still, When all nature cries,"Rejoice"? |
16688 | Soon as he ceased,--"Suppose,"said she,"I could contrive to set you free; Would you those pretty wings give me?" |
16688 | Tears were in Charley''s eye,--"Will they, dear father, say?" |
16688 | That his right arm can save; O, is it, can it, be his will That I should be a slave? |
16688 | The king he thinks,--"What do I see? |
16688 | The little fellow said,"And all be bright and new, That now looks cold and dead?" |
16688 | The pertinent question, Who reads an American book? |
16688 | The voice of the old shoe now once more was heard:--"Master Frank, will you please to attend? |
16688 | Then who, forsooth, the glory wins? |
16688 | This 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? |
16688 | This is the world''s unjust decree, But what is this vain world to me? |
16688 | WHEN ARE WE HAPPIEST? |
16688 | Was it some sylph whose tender care Spangled thy robes so fine and fair, And wove them of the morning air? |
16688 | Was that the music of the wind, That whispered in my trembling ear? |
16688 | What bids the savage tempest speak Of terror and dismay, And wakes the agonizing shriek Of guilt that fears to pray? |
16688 | What gilds the evening hours? |
16688 | What in the gentle moon doth see Pure thoughts and tender love, And hears delicious melody Around, below, above? |
16688 | What is it makes the morning bright? |
16688 | What is it on the dizzy height, What in each glowing star, That speaks of things beyond the sight, And questions what they are? |
16688 | What is it to the murmuring stream Doth give so sweet a song, That on its tide my thoughts do seem To pour themselves along? |
16688 | What is this life- inspiring mind, This omnipresent thought? |
16688 | What makes our hearts seem gay and light, As if we trod on flowers? |
16688 | What makes us, when we look above, See smiling angels there, And think they look on us in love, As if we were their care? |
16688 | What was in the viewless wind, Wild rushing through the oak, Seemed to my listening, dreaming mind As though a spirit spoke? |
16688 | What''comes of all the birds Amidst the storms and snows?" |
16688 | What, in the glorious world above, Where all is beauty, all is love,-- What shall I be in heaven? |
16688 | When passion tempted me to speak, Have I repressed the angry word? |
16688 | Who at the moon and stars can gaze Without a gush of love and praise? |
16688 | Who made the winter and the spring? |
16688 | Who painted all the flowers? |
16688 | Who taught the little birds to sing, And made these hearts of ours? |
16688 | Who, with skilful fingers fine, Purpled o''er those wings of thine? |
16688 | Will God, who made the earth and sea, The night, and shining day, Regard a little child like me, And listen when I pray? |
16688 | art thou still? |
16688 | see I aright? |
16688 | what will she do? |
21943 | But, 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?" |
21943 | Let us not envy,I replied,"the poor devil this trifling booty; I scatter my money about profusely, why not to him? |
21943 | May I then be allowed to ask, what sort of a thing is your soul? 21943 What does that matter?" |
21943 | What was the man''s appearance? |
21943 | Who are you, then? |
21943 | You mean a reflected shadow? |
21943 | --"Where is he-- where? |
21943 | 12.--"Why, noble woman, expose yourself to the bad air which is so prevalent here? |
21943 | And I am then to be fooled at last? |
21943 | And have not I entwined in thy existence an olive- branch and a rose- bud, as in the garland which I dared to present thee? |
21943 | And how do you imagine I employed myself? |
21943 | And shall not the malignant world be tasked? |
21943 | And what-- what is the Shadow? |
21943 | And you-- do you not yet serve your master and friend in this godlike manner, with sweet and silent satisfaction?" |
21943 | At the gate I was again condemned to hear from the sentinel,"Where has the gentleman left his shadow?" |
21943 | Bendel asked from within,"who is there?" |
21943 | But did I ever attempt to strangle you in order to possess your valuable soul, to which I really have a great liking? |
21943 | But what king could I be? |
21943 | Did anybody ever hear of a shadow abandoning its master? |
21943 | Do you know what wealth he possesses? |
21943 | Do you know what will become of it when you are once departed? |
21943 | Dost thou know what is my misery? |
21943 | Far 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? |
21943 | Had she, too, recognized me? |
21943 | Have I, for the sake of my bartered purse, let loose a servant upon you, and endeavoured to run away with it?" |
21943 | Have you ever seen it? |
21943 | He spoke:"May I ask for a trifling memento? |
21943 | I angrily flung the door open, and called out to Rascal,"What dost want, thou scoundrel?" |
21943 | I gently asked him, who that courteous gentleman was in grey clothes.--"Who? |
21943 | I inquired hastily:"Did Mr. Jones give you his signature?" |
21943 | I 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? |
21943 | Is he well? |
21943 | Is it because, when you attacked me on the highway, you attempted to steal my charm by force? |
21943 | Is it too high a problem, then, to task ye? |
21943 | Is not your own shadow enough for you? |
21943 | Is your fate then so dreary that you long for death?" |
21943 | My hated evil genius fixed his eyes angrily on me, and whispered in these rapid words,"Can you bear_ that_ too? |
21943 | Of what use would wings be to him who is fast bound in iron fetters? |
21943 | On me-- though guiltless as a child-- the throng Flung all their mockery of thy naked being,-- And is the likeness then so very strong? |
21943 | Or will you rather deliver over the sweet maiden to that contemptible scoundrel, Mr. Rascal? |
21943 | Professor,"I began,"can you paint a false shadow for one, who in the most luckless way in the world has lost his own?" |
21943 | Promise me to give thy hand to Mr. Rascal; say, wilt thou promise me?" |
21943 | Shall I confess it? |
21943 | That thy beloved-- what he? |
21943 | What could I do? |
21943 | What could I make of this singular proposal for disposing of my shadow? |
21943 | What runs in your veins instead of blood?" |
21943 | but can it not be altered?" |
21943 | do n''t you hear?" |
21943 | dost thou know what is my curse? |
21943 | he that looks like an end of thread blown away from a tailor''s needle?" |
21943 | or is it because you endeavoured fraudulently to get possessed of my property, the shadow, which had been confided to your simple honour? |
21943 | replied he, with seeming surprise,"why not?" |
21943 | thought I; and with an altered tone, yet more forcible, as contrasted with the humility of his own, I replied:"How is this, good friend? |
21943 | you 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?" |
33888 | Quelle 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? |
33888 | Look on that Sheep, he thinks you''re mad; Has he spoke one Word good or bad? |
33888 | Must w''eat a Bit before we go? |
33888 | Nay, why not? |
33888 | Says the Satyr, Whose Palate could bear scalding- water, Friend, what the Devil are you a doing? |
33888 | She 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? |
33888 | The Cuckold and the God of War Were very hot, they''d have him dye; But when_ Minerva_ ask''d him, Why? |
33888 | The House is full of Dogs and Boys, And ev''ry where''s a horrid Noise, Well, Landlord, Come, What shall we do? |
33888 | The King would not be put upon: Asks all his Court what''s to be done? |
33888 | This was his Speech; when Chanc''lor Fox Cries out, what signifies an Ox, Or Horse? |
33888 | Thus spoke the Lyon to the Gnat; Who answer''d, Bully, Think ye that I''ll bear Affronts? |
33888 | Well, Brother, have I bulk enough, An''t I as large, as he? |
33888 | What Horseman''s yonder at the Door? |
33888 | What cares a Frog for Kites, in Water? |
33888 | What do you mean by all this blowing? |
33888 | What have you got? |
33888 | What need the Fool to have made such Faces? |
33888 | What, I a Mouse? |
33888 | What, says the Husband, do you think Never to bring them any Drink? |
33888 | What, says the Husband, do you think Never to bring them any Drink? |
33888 | When do we marry Mistress_ Ann_? |
33888 | Which are your Ministers of State? |
33888 | Who gives you reason to complain? |
33888 | Who is to be the happy Man? |
33888 | Your 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? |
33888 | a''nt you a Mouse? |
33888 | what Courts of? |
33888 | what Puppy calls''em so? |
21189 | Agreed,rejoined the wolf,"I''ll go: But pray, what work am I to do?" |
21189 | And so,said he, to him below,"How dare you stir the water so? |
21189 | Be it so,said his friend,"but what sound do I hear? |
21189 | But pray,said the lion,"who sculptured that stone?" |
21189 | But 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? |
21189 | Elf, durst thou call me, vile pretender? |
21189 | How d''ye do? |
21189 | How so? 21189 Ill luck to my hurry, what now shall I do? |
21189 | Is that the case? |
21189 | My brother, What can the matter be? 21189 Now is not this to be preferr''d To your green peas?" |
21189 | Now,thought he,"what''s the reason, I can not see any, That I have no favors, while he has so many? |
21189 | Pray,said the satyr,"may I know For what you blow your fingers so?" |
21189 | Six 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? |
21189 | Was it not then because of us,Said elephant,"that you descended?" |
21189 | What was his trade? |
21189 | What? |
21189 | Whose voice is that which growls at mine? |
21189 | A 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? |
21189 | A 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? |
21189 | A youth ask''d why so long in bed? |
21189 | And lift the axle from the bog; Think''st thou Gods nothing have to do But listen to such knaves as you?" |
21189 | But what d''ye call_ that_, hanging there? |
21189 | Can thy weak warbling dare approach the thrush Or blackbird''s accents in the hawthorn bush? |
21189 | Cries 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?" |
21189 | Do you not see That you''re the noisiest of the three? |
21189 | Eat sheep, and why not? |
21189 | Echo as stern cried,"Who art thou?" |
21189 | From this small hill you see a space Extended far beneath your view, I like it much; pray do not you? |
21189 | Hast thou no bowels for thy kind? |
21189 | Have I not learn''d from you to walk? |
21189 | How should we read his will, And know that which from us he would conceal? |
21189 | Idiot, what warning would''st thou have? |
21189 | If bees a government maintain, Why may not rats of stronger brain And greater power, as well bethought By Machiavelian axioms taught? |
21189 | Is it a sin? |
21189 | Is it an iron chain, or what?" |
21189 | Is this the knowledge to which we aspire, Is it an error or a crime thus to believe That future destiny can thus be known? |
21189 | Is this your gratitude?" |
21189 | Let me your story comprehend: Your bull, you say, my ox has gored?" |
21189 | Now in Chance there can no science be, Or why should it be called by them_ Chance_-- And things uncertain, who knows in advance? |
21189 | One day he bid the man attend-- And,"Well,"says he,"my honest friend, How is it that so well you thrive? |
21189 | Or with the lark dost thou poor mimic, vie, Or nightingale''s unequal''d melody? |
21189 | Others beneath their noon- tide sun-- Time''s deepest lines engrave thy brow, And dost thou hesitate to go? |
21189 | Pray, what may be the profit clear, That you can earn within the year?" |
21189 | Said the other,"Oh, what shall we do?" |
21189 | So said he,"Is it you? |
21189 | The carter to the porker turned,"Where have you manners learned, Why stun us all? |
21189 | The lad entreats his life to save: The Don replies with aspect grave,"Sirrah, what business had you there? |
21189 | The rustic then his axe did take,"Is this then the return you make? |
21189 | This done they next were thus address''d:"Two lubbers on a little beast? |
21189 | Were I to move the other way, How could I follow you I pray?" |
21189 | What more? |
21189 | What must be done?" |
21189 | Where are you? |
21189 | Which of the two best loved the other? |
21189 | cried he,"Shall I take the life Of a musical bird like this? |
21189 | do you so?" |
21189 | foolish kite, thou hadst no wing, How could''st thou fly without a string? |
21189 | is it a vice? |
21189 | quoth he,"what have we here? |
21189 | said his host, in accent rough,"Is not your pottage hot enough?" |
21189 | says the Lion:"Who art thou?" |
21189 | she cried,"puss are you there? |
21189 | your''s, my friend? |
41921 | A pot of gold? |
41921 | Are they worth the price of a rose? |
41921 | Are 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?" |
41921 | But what is this? |
41921 | But where_ is_ our dream? |
41921 | Did I not leave my treasure in exchange? |
41921 | Do you really understand how great a hardship it is? |
41921 | Do you remember what we said last night when we found the gold piece? |
41921 | Do you wonder that I am out of temper? 41921 How many times?" |
41921 | Share it with you? |
41921 | Well, little one,he said, when the wheel stopped whirling,"did you like what I made out of that sad little tear?" |
41921 | What can it all mean? |
41921 | What do you see in the mirror,said the old man,"that you gaze so earnestly in it?" |
41921 | What is it? |
41921 | What shall we do? |
41921 | What use are these to us now, without our dream? |
41921 | Where can it have gone? |
41921 | Where did you gather your water- lilies, child? |
41921 | Who and what are you? |
41921 | Who ever heard of such luck? |
41921 | Who knows? |
41921 | Why, what is this? |
41921 | Will you share it with me? |
41921 | Would you be so lonely then? |
41921 | A little sleep-- it matters not how deep; A little falling feather from Thy wing: Merciful Lord-- is it so great a thing? |
41921 | After all, what were worldly possessions compared with this natural boon of which he was about to rob the sleeping man? |
41921 | Am I not rich? |
41921 | And was he about to subject a fellow human being to the torture which he had endured to the verge of madness? |
41921 | And what more dream do you want than gold and precious stones?" |
41921 | But how could he cash a daisy or negotiate a lark? |
41921 | But when he looked into the mirror, expecting to see his own ancient face-- what did he see? |
41921 | Could he, a poet, exchange this celestial windfall for a meal and a new doublet? |
41921 | Do you think that you are the only dream in the world? |
41921 | Ferdinand is dead-- can you imagine anything more unreasonable of him? |
41921 | Have you heard her play Your soul away On a harp with moonbeam strings? |
41921 | In short, will you consent to be Archbishop of Bohemia?" |
41921 | Need one say that the usurper least of all understood? |
41921 | Of what use is a dream to any one? |
41921 | Only, where was that rose for the bosom of his sweetheart-- where was it growing? |
41921 | Or was it the long- threatened invasion of the King of France? |
41921 | THE PINE LADY O have you seen the Pine Lady, Or heard her how she sings? |
41921 | The 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?" |
41921 | Was she weary of being a Queen? |
41921 | Was there a sorrow in the world that no money could buy? |
41921 | What other dream could I have but you?" |
41921 | What-- what am I to do?" |
41921 | Where and how was it to be bought? |
41921 | Where can it be?" |
41921 | Where on earth-- he was wondering-- was there another man who would be so put out at being made a king? |
41921 | Will you look into it?" |
41921 | Would all his castles be a fair exchange for that? |
41921 | Would you seem so lonely then? |
41921 | Yet his heart was filled with a high happiness, for, the vision once his, would it not be his again? |
41921 | as it appears that I must consent to be Head of the World Temporal-- will you consent to be the Head of the World Spiritual? |
39499 | Do you ne''er love? |
39499 | Have you no friendship? |
39499 | No care for little ones? |
39499 | Pass 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? |
39499 | That''s made? |
39499 | Will 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? |
39499 | Along 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? |
39499 | And come, misfortune surely must; In the dread season of dismay, In that your hour of trial, say, Who then shall prop your sinking heart? |
39499 | And must weak WOMAN then disown The change to which a world is prone? |
39499 | And think you, with inferior art, To captivate the human heart? |
39499 | And will you then this wealth conceal, For AGE to rust, or TIME to steal? |
39499 | And, miser- like, withhold that store, Which, by imparting, blesses more? |
39499 | Are these the comforts of a wife? |
39499 | But must the gentle, and the kind, Thy fury, undistinguish''d find?" |
39499 | But stay-- The settlement? |
39499 | By 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? |
39499 | By treach''ry prompts the noisy hound To scent his footsteps o''er the ground? |
39499 | Ca 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? |
39499 | Did 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? |
39499 | Do those of your world never wive it?" |
39499 | From hence, if he rewards bestow, Why should your heart with gall o''erflow? |
39499 | Have I, for once, spoke reason, think you? |
39499 | I 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? |
39499 | I said, that DELIA''S fair;''tis true, But did I say she equall''d you? |
39499 | In one meridian brightness shine, And ne''er like ev''ning suns decline? |
39499 | Is JUSTICE grown so strange a name? |
39499 | Is this, dissembling rage, he cry''d, The gentle virtue of a bride? |
39499 | Me 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? |
39499 | NATURE, 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? |
39499 | Needs there no acquisition more, To keep contention from the door? |
39499 | Needs there such caution to delude The scaly fry, and feather''d brood? |
39499 | No more with virgin splendour burn? |
39499 | On one side only take the fee, Content with poverty and thee? |
39499 | Or teach the grateful breast to glow, The hand to give, or eye to flow? |
39499 | Or that your cheeks are beds of flow''rs, Enripen''d by refreshing show''rs? |
39499 | Or where the lily''s snowy white, That throws such beauties on the sight? |
39499 | Or, watchful for the lab''ring swain, From lurking rats secure the grain? |
39499 | Pray, madam, are you married? |
39499 | Shall envy then torment your breast, If you are lovelier than the rest? |
39499 | Shall ev''ry fowl the waters skim, Because we GEESE are known to swim? |
39499 | Shall we anticipate the hour, And, ere we feel it, own his pow''r? |
39499 | Sixteen, d''ye say? |
39499 | Sons of PLEASURE, sons of CARE, Tell me, mortals, tell me where? |
39499 | Sternly the white- rob''d shade reply''d,( A crimson glow her visage dy''d) Canst thou be doubtful who I am? |
39499 | Such 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?" |
39499 | Tell me, CORINNA, if you can, Why so averse, so coy, to man? |
39499 | That, leagu''d with man''s destroying race, She sets her husband for the chase? |
39499 | The great and good Are by their actions understood; Your monument if actions raise, Shall I deface by idle praise? |
39499 | The summer of your youth to rove, A stranger to the joys of love? |
39499 | This careful, cloister''d, moping life? |
39499 | Thou 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? |
39499 | Was it dress That gave your beauty pow''r to bless? |
39499 | Were not your courts for JUSTICE rais''d? |
39499 | What if I say your lips disclose The freshness of the op''ning rose? |
39499 | What rude offence alarms you now? |
39499 | What should she do; attempt once more To gain the late- deserted shore? |
39499 | When 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? |
39499 | Where is your asylum then? |
39499 | Who bear AFFLICTION''S weightier part? |
39499 | Who drives the vermin from the house? |
39499 | Whose claws destroy the pilf''ring mouse? |
39499 | Why knits my dear her angry brow? |
39499 | Why must the wrapping bed- gown hide Your snowy bosom''s swelling pride? |
39499 | Why pine my happiness to see, Since there''s enough for you and me? |
39499 | Why then''s my simple girl afraid? |
39499 | Why then, my AMORET, this care, That forms you, in effect, less fair? |
39499 | Why, CELIA, is your spreading waist So loose, so negligently lac''d? |
39499 | Would you the bloom of youth should last? |
39499 | You''ve rallied me with sense exceeding, With much fine wit, and better breeding; But pray, sir, how do you contrive it? |
39499 | can life contain? |
39499 | can wrongs impart Compassion to the feeling heart? |
39499 | thou curs''d insidious coast, Are these the blessings thou canst boast? |
39499 | thy airs give o''er, And let my contemplation soar-- What is the music of thy voice, But jarring dissonance and noise? |
19892 | And is this death? |
19892 | And who may you be? |
19892 | Bless your heart, my darling,said the mother;"why do you say that?" |
19892 | But are there not other children in the house yonder who would like to join us? |
19892 | But how about those others who wanted a change? |
19892 | But how came you there? |
19892 | But tell me, how will it come about? 19892 But what did you find on the way?" |
19892 | Did you ever play Gillyflower Gentleman? |
19892 | Do you know,he asked,"of any kingdom in these parts where the crown is ready and the folk wait for a king?" |
19892 | From the Primary Department? |
19892 | How are your scissors called, dear? |
19892 | How do you know that? |
19892 | How shall I know the house? |
19892 | How 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? |
19892 | I 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?" |
19892 | I was not naughty, was I? |
19892 | Is So- and- So ill? |
19892 | Is it your sin, that turned your cup blood red? |
19892 | Is it your sorrow, that changed the green world to black about you? |
19892 | Is there,he asked,"one here in whose breast these words strike like a barbed arrow, for the truth that is in them?" |
19892 | Little one,she said,"have you anything for me?" |
19892 | May I wrap me in the gown you are making? |
19892 | Might that be Wisdom? |
19892 | Must I tell you? |
19892 | My dear little boy,cried the brother,"why are you making yourself so hideous?" |
19892 | None else, save children: they cried about my path, but how could I stay for them while you waited? |
19892 | Oh, Love, what like was the pang? |
19892 | Ought we not to warn him of the danger? |
19892 | Outside it is cold and empty,said Love,"and the wind blows over the waste; may I come in and warm me by the fire?" |
19892 | Poor place, will nothing grow in you? 19892 Poor soul, did you know no better?" |
19892 | Sweethearts,cried the Little Sister;"dear loves, tell me, whose light and joy and blessing are you?" |
19892 | Was it so long? |
19892 | We are called Temptation and Opportunity,they answered;"but what matters this name or that? |
19892 | What God do you worship? |
19892 | What ails you at the place? |
19892 | What do you mean? |
19892 | What hurts my Love? |
19892 | What is a mother? |
19892 | What is all this ado? |
19892 | What is it? |
19892 | What is it? |
19892 | What is one''s frosting to this? 19892 What is the matter, dear?" |
19892 | What is the meaning of this? |
19892 | What is this,the child asked,"that is bitter, and yet sweeter than aught else in the world?" |
19892 | What is this? |
19892 | What is this? |
19892 | What men are ye? |
19892 | What shall I do with it, Lord? |
19892 | What then? |
19892 | What would you? |
19892 | Where is your home? |
19892 | Where is your ruler? |
19892 | Whither away so fast? |
19892 | Who are you, fair Spirit? |
19892 | Who are you, who keep my house? |
19892 | Who else? |
19892 | Who have been waiting? |
19892 | Who is this,he said,"that breaks my slumber?" |
19892 | Why are you not at home, tending your fire, instead of gadding along the road in this fashion? |
19892 | Why not? |
19892 | Why should I live longer? |
19892 | Why should I not give up,he said to himself,"and refuse to go on? |
19892 | Why,said the second child,"should such a thing be here? |
19892 | Will you kindly tell me what you would do with me if I should yield myself up to you? |
19892 | You have been much together, then? |
19892 | You say that I am not one being but many, and that your glass will show me my component parts as separate entities? |
19892 | You think you are ready to go? |
19892 | AT LONG LAST"Heart- of- mine, are you come at last?" |
19892 | And what of the Way?" |
19892 | But these white garments are not suitable for me; could I find a black robe, do you think?" |
19892 | But what is going on now? |
19892 | But what makes them so small?" |
19892 | But what of my wings, lest they put the flight in me once more?" |
19892 | But whom have we here? |
19892 | Do you see what you have done? |
19892 | Does thy sad- browed neighbor smile? |
19892 | GILLYFLOWER GENTLEMAN"Why do you play alone, dear,"asked the Play Angel,"and look so sadly over your shoulder at the other children?" |
19892 | Has that fair crown of rose and green drawn its life from so foul a source as this? |
19892 | Hast thou e''er a joy, love? |
19892 | He said to the first man,"What of your fire?" |
19892 | Heart- of- mine, whom met you by the way?" |
19892 | How shall I take this hard journey?" |
19892 | I am sorry that you do not approve of me, but this is the way I was made; do you see?" |
19892 | I must be free; I must fly, or of what use are my wings?" |
19892 | If I were dead, I should not feel the blows; why should I struggle further with this burden?" |
19892 | Said the eldest child to the Angel who was their guardian;"Dear, there is one seeking a home; shall we call her in?" |
19892 | THE NEIGHBOUR"What can you tell me of your neighbour?" |
19892 | THE STONE BLOCKS"Why is your little sister crying, dear?" |
19892 | THE TANGLED SKEIN"My dear child,"said the Angel- who- attends- to- things,"why are you crying so very hard?" |
19892 | Their faces are wholly strange to me; what are they?" |
19892 | Then came the second, and of him, too, that one asked,"What of your fire?" |
19892 | Was it not foolish of them, mother? |
19892 | What are these creatures?" |
19892 | What do you propose to do about it?" |
19892 | What do you take me for?" |
19892 | What place is this?" |
19892 | Who knows but he may amend, and do it yet?" |
19892 | Who should bear the torch but he?" |
19892 | Whom else again?" |
19892 | Why may we not call her in?" |
19892 | asked the child,"and shall I wear a crown?" |
19892 | but how does it grow? |
19892 | but what of the steps before the door?" |
19892 | dear me, what ever_ shall_ I do?" |
19892 | he said;"what is this you have done?" |
19892 | how was it empty, when I left the cup brimming over for you? |
19892 | said the other;"how can that be? |
19892 | was it you?" |
19892 | what is the reason of it?" |
19892 | what strange pigmies are these?" |
19892 | when I would make a path for my Love''s white feet, and set instead a snare for them, to her hurt?" |
19892 | whither, Beloved of my soul, from my arms that clasp yet can not hold you?" |
19892 | who keeps my house alight?" |
19892 | who keeps my house warm?" |
19892 | whom else?" |
19892 | will none help me out?" |
19892 | will 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?'' |
240 | Am I gaining or losing ground with Arissa? |
240 | And besides,continued an engineer,"how do these pictures get into the air in the first place? |
240 | And how do you control its motions? |
240 | And is this the effect of dotage or of primordial ignorance? |
240 | And is this the state of a wise man? |
240 | And may I remind you that slander is an offense punishable by law? |
240 | And now tell me, which is of more value, a bar of soap or a human soul? |
240 | And then where are you going? |
240 | And then where will you go? |
240 | And then where will you go? |
240 | And what is a bird? |
240 | And where can I find it? |
240 | Are you Chirpy Bird? |
240 | Are you accusing me of owning a television? |
240 | Arissa,he said,"how about a date anon?" |
240 | Back home, why? |
240 | Believe in it? |
240 | But after you retire, where will you go? |
240 | But how shall I know what beliefs I should hold in order to live the best life? |
240 | But when the physical evidence is clearly before you,said the traveler,"how can you not believe, even if your theories can not explain it?" |
240 | But where''s your blonde hair? |
240 | But why? |
240 | Cost cutting? |
240 | Did you ever seek help for yourself? |
240 | Do less? |
240 | Do n''t I get anything for my wisdom? |
240 | Do 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? |
240 | Do 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?" |
240 | Has n''t that plot already been done? |
240 | Have you seen anyone with a baby in the past week? |
240 | Hints? |
240 | How could anything be worse than this? |
240 | How do you get them all in there? |
240 | How many doors down from the elevator? |
240 | How''s that? |
240 | Is that like sleep? |
240 | Is the greenness I see all over you moss or envy? |
240 | Just what do you think you''re doing, anyway? |
240 | Just what is it the king wants to do? |
240 | Listen, 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? |
240 | My infirmity? |
240 | Oh, or like the chocolate- chip cookies you gave me that one time? |
240 | Oh? 240 Really? |
240 | Shall I hit you with the bloom or with the stem? |
240 | Since when did the television listings become''literature''? 240 Sir,"he asked,"have you any identification?" |
240 | So that''s how you make cement, huh? |
240 | So you are ready to end your life? |
240 | So you want power, huh? |
240 | Tell me,replied the old man,"when you drop your bar of soap while bathing, what do you do?" |
240 | Then what am I to do? |
240 | Then where are you going? |
240 | Then you really believe this madman''s drivel you''ve been feeding us? |
240 | This race is an allegory, is n''t it, Father? |
240 | We? 240 Well, what of that? |
240 | Well, why did n''t you just say something to me, like,''I love you''? |
240 | Well,asked the friend,"what does the building look like?" |
240 | What I want to know is, Why is it there in the first place? |
240 | What are you talking about? |
240 | What brings you here on a school day? |
240 | What do you mean? |
240 | What floor are you on? |
240 | What form does it take? |
240 | What kind of a jerk would fire people like that? |
240 | What shall I do with it? |
240 | What should I do with it? |
240 | What''s going on here? |
240 | What''s wrong with him? |
240 | What''s wrong? 240 What''s your name?" |
240 | What? |
240 | Where is your office? |
240 | Who invited this charlatan? |
240 | Who''s asking? |
240 | Whoever heard of a fish named Chirpy Bird? |
240 | Whom did you bet on, daddy? |
240 | Why did n''t you say anything? |
240 | Why do n''t you ask God to bless him while you''re at it? |
240 | Why do n''t you shoot me if you do n''t like my pecking? |
240 | Yeah, why not? |
240 | You do n''t even know what you''re doing, do you? |
240 | You know why you are n''t attacking the enemy, do n''t you? |
240 | You lazy little nut,said a spinning gear,"why do n''t you get to work?" |
240 | You love me after I have banished your daughter and proven unfaithful to you? |
240 | You love me? |
240 | You 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? |
240 | You want to hear something funny, Lissa? |
240 | You willingly gave me your son, even though I was evil? |
240 | You''ve always been sloppy with bibliography, have n''t you? |
240 | You? 240 A young woman once asked him,What can I do to make someone my friend? |
240 | Almost out of habit, Sir Percival spoke:"Arissa, sugar, would you like to go out with me sometime?" |
240 | And just what is mail? |
240 | And 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? |
240 | And what does thinking look like to you?" |
240 | And what human male could compete with an always confident, correct, and handsome construction? |
240 | Besides, what good would it do me to help her? |
240 | Besides, what would we do?" |
240 | But remember that note I wrote where I called you a''weird monster man''? |
240 | But what do you mean you sent me hints?" |
240 | But who knew what the fate of the cured natives would eventually be? |
240 | Do n''t you ever hope, Genie?" |
240 | Do n''t you see that? |
240 | How about tomorrow night?" |
240 | How can I not believe it? |
240 | How could you be so careless when we''re all dressed up like this, anyway?" |
240 | How do you pretend to instruct the ignorance of youth when you have never instructed yourself? |
240 | Pretty silly, huh?" |
240 | Quite a find, eh?" |
240 | Say, you feeling all right? |
240 | See the little sign pointing the way?" |
240 | Shall I oil my skin or brush my hair?" |
240 | Some new treasure of the Orient, or a lost clue to the secrets of nature? |
240 | That was a hint, huh?" |
240 | This question, together with the problem for the day,"Does man have a purpose?" |
240 | To which Arissa:"And when would this be?" |
240 | To which Arissa:"Like where, ifay?" |
240 | To which Arissa:"Oh, Perce, did n''t I tell you I was busy?" |
240 | To which Arissa:"Really? |
240 | To which the knight:"Well, when could you go then?" |
240 | Well, what can we say? |
240 | What could be worse?" |
240 | What do you take us for anyway-- a bunch of gullible greenhorn fools?" |
240 | What human female could compete with an always slim, beautiful, and lively imitation? |
240 | What is it?" |
240 | What makes it fly?" |
240 | What should I do with it?" |
240 | What should I do?" |
240 | What''s yours?" |
240 | Where are you going?" |
240 | Where are you going?" |
240 | Where do they come from?" |
240 | Which books should I keep and which should I burn?" |
240 | Which do you think I should ask for, Genie?" |
240 | While he held his bleeding nose, he was heard to mutter,"Now why did they move the door?" |
240 | Who are you, anyway?" |
240 | Why do n''t you get out?" |
240 | You are familiar with the English language, are n''t you? |
240 | You want people to laugh at me? |
240 | You''re one of those religious fanatics, right? |
240 | asked the beard, looking at the sky,"to threaten his friend for speaking truth?" |
2329 | And Betts Shoreham has nothing to do with all this dread? |
2329 | And did they take any, Mr. Bobbinet? 2329 And have n''t all girls mothers? |
2329 | And the DEAREST? 2329 And to whom will that difference belong?" |
2329 | And what did it cost, pray? 2329 And why not? |
2329 | And you will take her without a cent, you say? |
2329 | And you, Mademoiselle Hennequin; I hope you, too, were agreeably entertained? |
2329 | And your family name is not Hennequin? |
2329 | And, pray, sir, how can that handkerchief have brought about any such result? |
2329 | At home!--is there, indeed? 2329 But why not, Julia?" |
2329 | By the dozen, or by the gross, sir? |
2329 | Ca n''t I persuade you to take THIS? |
2329 | Consequences!--may I ask, sir, to what consequences you allude? |
2329 | Did I, sir? 2329 Did he?" |
2329 | Does this wish, then, extend to the plural number? |
2329 | Hang it,THOUGHT Tom, again,"who knows? |
2329 | Has my grandmother asked for me, Nathalie? |
2329 | Horses and carriages, of course? 2329 How much, sir? |
2329 | I hope YOU enjoyed yourself better, Julia? |
2329 | Is Miss Monson addicted to such VERY high spirits? |
2329 | It meant to FILL, as they call it, does it not? |
2329 | It''s all common property, Monson-- but, what have become of your sister and Mademoiselle Hennequin? 2329 Love? |
2329 | Mademoiselle Hennequin, for mercy''s sake, be as frank and simple as I know your nature prompts-- DO you, CAN you love me? |
2329 | No money, mademoiselle? 2329 No?" |
2329 | Now, Mr. Thurston, I believe I understand this matter,said the father, in a very business- like manner;"you wish to marry my daughter?" |
2329 | Pray, sir, may I ask,Mr. Monson now coming in,"did you pay for Jule''s handkerchief? |
2329 | Referred? 2329 Shall I send it, Miss Eudosia; or do n''t you like to trust it out of your sight?" |
2329 | Style? 2329 Tell me the worst at once-- is it true, HAVE you failed?" |
2329 | Tell me, mon cher cousin,said Adrienne, smiling through her tears--"were your grand- parents, my good uncle and aunt, were they happy? |
2329 | Then, so far as she herself is concerned, you wish me to understand that she accepts you? |
2329 | This shows that you are, in truth, a lover of plain- dealing, Mr. Thurston-- and now, as to the handkerchief? |
2329 | What CAN be the matter, Ma? |
2329 | What have we here? |
2329 | What is Betts Shoreham to me, or what am I to Betts Shoreham? 2329 What is the matter now, Jack?" |
2329 | What say the YOUNG gentlemen to this? |
2329 | What, alone with my daughter''s fine pocket- handkerchief? 2329 What, weary of beautiful dresses? |
2329 | When does your lease end, mademoiselle? |
2329 | When may I tell Mrs. Thoughtful, then, that you will send it to her? |
2329 | Who else can it be, then? |
2329 | Who is the lady to whom Mr. Shoreham is so devoue this evening? |
2329 | Who is your BOSS, pocket- handkerchief? |
2329 | Why do n''t Charley, then, take her himself? 2329 Why should I say''yes,''when it can lead to no good result?" |
2329 | Why so, chere Clara? |
2329 | Why, Mr. W., that is downright monarchical, is it not? |
2329 | Why, they are NOT in''statu quo''--but in a''semper eadem''--I beg pardon, do you understand Latin? |
2329 | Would it suit you, madame,she asked, as if dreading a repulse,"to part with one of these?" |
2329 | Yes, I see you are feminine, by your ornaments-- still, you might tell a fellow who is your boss? |
2329 | You do not expect to sell it at what it cost? |
2329 | You mean, Henry, that you have failed? |
2329 | You 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?" |
2329 | And that freedom is the greatest blessing of this happy country; and that trade ought to be as free as any thing else?" |
2329 | And what state is your militia actually in?" |
2329 | And why should she? |
2329 | And you are referred?" |
2329 | Are you European, also?" |
2329 | Bobbinet?" |
2329 | But what were you about to say of political economy? |
2329 | But you are of foreign birth, ma''am, I should think by your dress and appearance?" |
2329 | But, possibly, you do not wish to hear the calculation-- ladies, generally, dislike figures?" |
2329 | But, why should this handkerchief awaken any feeling in you, monsieur? |
2329 | COLONEL Silky? |
2329 | Could it be that the grateful girl still intended to make her offering to the Duchesse de d''Angouleme? |
2329 | Do you call a handkerchief with such lace, and all this magnificent work on it, and which cost a HUNDRED DOLLARS, foolish? |
2329 | Do you call a pocket- handkerchief useless?" |
2329 | Do you think she has an aristocratic air?" |
2329 | Eudosia said,"that every person in Mrs. Trotter''s rooms should stare so at me, this evening? |
2329 | Every thing on a genteel and liberal scale?" |
2329 | Had we not better remain under the influence of the poetical star?" |
2329 | Have you thought of your price, mademoiselle?" |
2329 | Here it is; what do you think of my choice?" |
2329 | How could such a thing be USED, for instance?" |
2329 | How much fortune do you think will be necessary to make such a couple happy, at starting in the world? |
2329 | How much is it? |
2329 | I dare say your Pa is worth as much as that?" |
2329 | I did hope that no sister of MINE would run into any such foolish extravagance-- do you own it, Jule?" |
2329 | I do n''t remember the name-- which of OUR editors is he?" |
2329 | I suppose you include dinners, sir, and a manly competition with one''s fellow citizens, in real New York form?" |
2329 | I suppose your Pa makes you study political economy, my dear?" |
2329 | I wonder if it be patriotic to say, OUR winters?" |
2329 | In the name of heaven, how are we to bury your grandmother?" |
2329 | Is Louis Philippe likely to maintain the throne, in France?" |
2329 | Is it foolish to have money, or to be thought rich?" |
2329 | It will say,''of what use are all my excellent lessons in taste and prudence, if an elder sister''s example is to counteract them?'' |
2329 | Julie is no ghost, though she is sometimes so delicate and ethereal, and as for Henny--""Who?" |
2329 | Let me see-- had I best begin to screw him up in this interview, or wait for the next? |
2329 | Monson?" |
2329 | Mr. Thurston-- and of what is it your pleasure to accuse me of being the image?" |
2329 | My father says it is----""What? |
2329 | Now, does not this alter the matter about the pocket- handkerchief? |
2329 | Now, how much do you guess?" |
2329 | Of course you know what that means?" |
2329 | Of what USE is a pocket- handkerchief like this? |
2329 | Pray, what may that mean in particular?" |
2329 | Shoreham?" |
2329 | Shoreham?" |
2329 | Surely-- surely-- this is not your work, mademoiselle?" |
2329 | That she was a little addicted to this weakness, is true-- who ever knew a commissionaire that was not? |
2329 | Thurston?" |
2329 | Thurston?" |
2329 | Was their union blessed?" |
2329 | What am I to understand, sir, by your being referred?" |
2329 | What do you think Pa is worth?" |
2329 | What do you think of THIS?" |
2329 | What is a BOSS?" |
2329 | What is the price?" |
2329 | What say you, mademoiselle-- will you accept the forty five francs, or would you prefer seeing the marchande de mode?" |
2329 | What 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? |
2329 | What young man will dare to choose a wife from among young ladies who expend so much money on their pocket- handkerchiefs?" |
2329 | What, just when I''ve paid a hundred dollars for a pocket- handkerchief? |
2329 | Whom do you think I could mean, else? |
2329 | Why ca n''t we aim higher at once, and get such girls as the Burtons, for instance?" |
2329 | Will you have the goodness to explain this matter to me?" |
2329 | Will you have the goodness to explain what you mean by that''yes?''" |
2329 | You are not about to enact the Moor, in your days of wooing?" |
2329 | You mean, to keep a liberal and gentlemanly establishment, as would become your son- in- law?" |
2329 | You must have observed something very peculiar in my language, at the commencement of this exceedingly interesting dialogue?" |
2329 | You own this handkerchief?" |
2329 | commenced the mother--"and so the general has it all to answer for-- why did you let him give so many notes for you?" |
2329 | exclaimed John Monson, in surprise;"has Miss Flowergarden made a call, and is this her card?" |
2329 | exclaimed the wife--"YOU up at this hour?--what CAN have happened? |
2329 | what HAS come to our door?" |
2329 | who entered the room at that instant--"is this bit of a rag yours, or is it not more likely to be Henny''s?" |
2329 | who, 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?" |
12793 | And the donkeys are yours, eh? |
12793 | And the wheat''s been yours all the time, has it? |
12793 | And what, pray, may you design doing with them? |

12793 | Now, who said anything about your astronomy? 12793 Oyster at home?" |
12793 | Pray how did you manage it? |
12793 | Requires a cat in the place, does it? |
12793 | Suppose,said the burden,"I were a man in a sack; what disposition would you make of me?" |

13815 | Lion, who is your father? |
13815 | May I depend upon your word? |
13815 | May we depend upon your word? |

13815 | Shall I,says he,"of tender age, In this important care engage? |
13815 | Then how can you expect your little ones to care for you? |
13815 | Then what was the smallest of all creatures of the wilderness that battled with a lion? |

13815 | What was the stake? |
13815 | What will be your reward? |

13815 | Where is your brilliancy now? |
13815 | Where will you go hereafter? |
13815 | Who art thou? |
13815 | Who art thou? |
13815 | Who is his friend? |
13815 | Who is that one? |
13815 | Who would venture to deny the fact? 13815 Whose voice is that which growls at mine?" |
13815 | Why art thou so sad, dear friend? |
13815 | Why do you do that? |
13815 | Why does the Master treat us so? |
13815 | Why were you turned out? |
13815 | Why, how now, my Son? |
13815 | Why, 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? |
13815 | Why, your majesty, what can be more wonderful than for Fish to escape in lots, each exceeding the other by one? |

13815 | ("When,"cry the botanists, and stare,"Did plants call''d Sensitive grow there?" |
13815 | --"But say, why doom yourself to sorrow so?" |
13815 | A great cry, however, arose from the people,"And Ceres? |
13815 | A 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? |
13815 | Am I not active, strong and supple? |
13815 | Am I to blame If men in morals are the same? |
13815 | And how comes it that Moles dare to meddle in the affairs of the king of Birds? |
13815 | And presently the Shark said:"Why have you made the line fast to my tail?" |
13815 | And she asked the King,"Where are all my Chickens?" |
13815 | And since that I have not power even to take leave, how can I endure the load of separation?" |

13815 | But hence what moral can I bring? |
13815 | But is it becoming that an Eagle should accept advice coming from a Mole in a hole? |
13815 | But tell me, have you already brought up your little ones? |
13815 | But the Mouse- deer answered,"What, Friend Shark, you''ll make a meal off me? |
13815 | But what do I care? |
13815 | But what happens? |
13815 | But what is the good of it if there''s neither warmth nor wear in it?" |

13815 | But why should he ponder long over it? |
13815 | By no means; why, we must all die; is not your father dead?" |
13815 | Can I do anything for you?" |
13815 | Can you not always run where you please, then?" |
13815 | Canst thou see the wale of a stick? |
13815 | Did it not tell thee what it was told by me, that thou art still sitting at home although it has become day?" |
13815 | Did not you give us leave to take from the Sheep a trifling contribution for our pelisses in winter? |

13815 | How shall we kill him?" |
13815 | How should they save their Egg-- and bacon? |
13815 | I grant, to man we lend our pains, And aid him to correct the plains; But doth he not divide the care Through all the labours of the year? |
13815 | I marry without more ado, My dear Dick Redcap; what say you?" |
13815 | If a dog were made king, would he not gnaw his shoe straps?'' |
13815 | If you like it, and it does you good, why not eat it all up? |
13815 | In 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? |
13815 | Is there a bird beneath the blue That has more charms than you? |
13815 | Is what I have said not the truth?" |
13815 | JOSEPH ADDISON How shall I bring to your mind the time and distance that separate us from the Age of Fable? |
13815 | Let me hear what word she spoke?" |
13815 | Listen to the cry of the dogs and the terrible sound of the horns? |
13815 | Look at the cells-- through every one Does not unvaried sameness run? |
13815 | May I hope to get a pension, and other privileges? |
13815 | My humble friend from danger free, While, weltering in my gore, I''m dying?" |
13815 | Nianga says:"What has done this to thee?" |
13815 | Nianga says:"Where shall I find food?" |
13815 | Not knowing how to guard your own?" |
13815 | Now, how do you wish that I should hold my tail?" |
13815 | Oh, such caressing was there ever? |
13815 | On seeing the little red Ants, our Lord asked them,"Why did you kill the man?" |
13815 | Or melody with such a quaver? |
13815 | Our 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?" |
13815 | Presently Father Elephant arrived, and Mother Elephant asked:"What were you sobbing for, Father? |
13815 | Presently the old man said:"Where has that bird got to? |
13815 | Presently, therefore, the Tiger asked the Elephant,"Well, Friend Elephant, would you like to try your luck again?" |
13815 | Said the King- crow to himself:"Who can it be coming up- stream that exclaims so loudly at the rapids? |
13815 | Said the old man,"Do you really mean it?" |
13815 | Seek ye to thrive? |
13815 | Shall every fowl the waters skim Because we Geese are known to swim? |
13815 | Shall haughty man my back bestride? |
13815 | Shall the sharp spur provoke my side? |
13815 | Shall we our servitude retain Because our sires have borne the chain? |
13815 | Shall, then, our nobler jaws submit To foam, and champ the galling bit? |
13815 | Should he choose the Panther? |
13815 | Should he trust him to the Mole? |
13815 | Should it in forward paws be taken, Or roll''d along, or dragg''d? |
13815 | So he turned to the Tiger and said,"Will you have some of this fine grass for your breakfast?" |
13815 | So 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?" |
13815 | Some people said:"How shall we kill it?" |
13815 | Soon after, he was accosted by one of them in this manner:"Is not that a dog? |
13815 | Suppose I lead him after another Lion? |
13815 | The Cat asked the Hen''s child,"Why did thy mother send thee to me?" |
13815 | The Cat of the old woman inquired:"What sort of a thing may fat meat be? |
13815 | The Cat said to the Hen''s child,"Go and tell thy mother to arise and come at the cockcrowing; for what should eat her?" |
13815 | The Cat said to the Hen,"What art thou afraid of that thou sayest,''I will never come out at night''? |
13815 | The Cattle said:"Who will be the leader of our party and do the inviting? |
13815 | The Crab said:"Would you like to run a race with a stupid creature like me? |
13815 | The Crabs in the holes around came up to him and said:"Friend, why are you wailing so loud?" |
13815 | The Fox bowed respectfully, and stood before the king, who said:"So you are to tell us stories without ceasing?" |
13815 | The Fox said:"Have you ever been out for a walk in the moonlight?" |
13815 | The Goat rose up and, advancing to the mouth of the cave, said,"Will you come back to- morrow?" |
13815 | The Hen arose, and asked it:"Thou child of the Cat, dost thou come to me in peace?" |
13815 | The Hen replied to the Cat:"Dost thou like me for a friend?" |
13815 | The Hen said to her child,"What did the Cat say? |
13815 | The Hen''s child said,"My mother said I must come and ask thee how early shall we go to the neighbouring town?" |
13815 | The Man of Luck and the Man of Pluck A King in the East said to his Minister;"Do you believe in luck?" |
13815 | The Mule asked,"Shall we go to any other place?" |
13815 | The Partridge, void of fear, Begins her friend to jeer:--"You bragg''d of being fleet; How serve you, now, your feet?" |
13815 | The Proud Fox and the Crab One day a Fox said to a Crab:"Crawling thing, did you ever run in all your life?" |
13815 | The Snake replied:"Who deserves more to grieve than I, whose maintenance was from hunting frogs? |
13815 | The 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?" |
13815 | The Tortoise wept at the intelligence and piteously exclaimed,"What words are these, and how can existence be supported without sympathizing friends? |
13815 | The bulk which makes a child afraid? |
13815 | The man replied,"''Tis true; And did the Lark to you?" |
13815 | The man said to the Tiger:"If I let you out of the trap will you promise not to attack me?" |
13815 | The people said:"This fellow, how shall we do? |
13815 | The people said:"What shall we kill him with?" |
13815 | The thief asked him:"Who art thou, and whither goest thou?" |
13815 | The young that through your teeth have passed, In file unbroken by a fast, Had they nor dam nor sire?" |
13815 | Then Friend Mouse- deer said,"When does your promise expire?" |
13815 | Then he said,"Do you think I came here myself? |
13815 | Then the King- crow asked:"And what will you stake?" |
13815 | Then the Mule asked his mother,"Will you allow me to go with Sii to see his friend?" |
13815 | Then the Toad said to the Rat,"Didst thou see me? |
13815 | Then they said to him,"Why do you live here so long? |
13815 | There 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? |
13815 | They gather, saying:"Why didst thou send for us?" |
13815 | They returned home, called a council together and said:"What shall we do? |
13815 | Think you I tremble at your power or fame? |
13815 | This is all thy run; and wilt thou say that thou canst do more than I?" |
13815 | This is my story which thou hast heard; now, tell me, who art thou and what is thy story?" |
13815 | To 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?" |
13815 | Was it a bird?" |
13815 | Was it such a return that I expected from them? |
13815 | Were Geese set off with half that show, Would men admire the Peacock? |
13815 | Were 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? |
13815 | What are you complaining about? |
13815 | What are you that you should have a place you call your home and tell me that I may or I may not?'' |
13815 | What could be better than a king as the tutor for a prince? |
13815 | What harm had e''er my victims done? |
13815 | What have you done to yourself?" |
13815 | What is it that thou dost want?" |
13815 | What is the cause of it?" |
13815 | What is there in the way?" |
13815 | What makes a bird, I pray? |
13815 | What makes your hair so smooth and beautiful? |
13815 | What more proofs do you want?" |
13815 | What on earth is the matter with him? |
13815 | What see ye, men, in this parade, That food for wonder need be made? |
13815 | What shall we do?" |
13815 | What!--dare_ you_ challenge me to sing, When there''s no voice, however fine, Can match the melody of mine?" |
13815 | When did you find time to build a nest? |
13815 | When he objected his companion exclaimed,"Did we not agree that Whatever plunged down the steps was to be my portion?" |
13815 | When 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?" |
13815 | When the Cat of the old woman saw this, it was astonished and cried out, saying:"Thou, whose state is thus pleasant, whence art thou? |
13815 | When the two hostile armies fall to strife, Then from its sheath what need to draw the knife? |
13815 | Where hath he strength who wanteth judgment? |
13815 | Where then would be the glory of an Eagle having such keen eyes? |
13815 | Who and what are you to talk so much? |
13815 | Who buildeth not, sometimes, in air, His cots, or seats, or castles fair? |
13815 | Who can say? |
13815 | Who dares the inference to blink, That beasts possess wherewith to think? |
13815 | Who gave you leave to plunder?" |
13815 | Who knows how that may turn out for me? |
13815 | Who put me here, do you know? |
13815 | Who told you such a lie? |
13815 | Why did you not give it to me?" |
13815 | Why do some try and not succeed; while others do not try and yet they do succeed? |
13815 | Why do some try and not succeed; while others do not try and yet they do succeed? |
13815 | Why do you children stay out here, when I have given you a good house to live in?" |
13815 | Why do you come?" |
13815 | Why do you not go back to your own place? |
13815 | Why do you not leave me in peace? |
13815 | Why do you want to keep it all to yourself?" |
13815 | Why have some longer life than others? |
13815 | Why have some longer life than others? |
13815 | Why should I go on suffering here in rain and mud, while our Diamond is, men say, in honour there? |
13815 | Why should I with this burden couple? |
13815 | Why so much noise, and why, just when the Rains are upon us, too, do you go fetching such lofty bounds?" |
13815 | Why was it, that, not fearing to sin, the Cuckoo praised the Cock? |
13815 | Why, have I even got the strength to lift it?" |
13815 | Why, then, am I not worthy of confidence?" |
13815 | Why, then, should we seek to die? |
13815 | Wilt play?" |
13815 | Would you not like to take a walk with me? |
13815 | You foolish old thing, do you think our fathers and mothers want you? |
13815 | Your friend is sick; Do not shun him''"Deer says:"Chief, the drum, how art thou playing it? |
13815 | _ The Ape was not to reason blind; For who in wealth of dress can find Such charms as dwell in wealth of mind? |
13815 | and Ceres?" |
13815 | and what kind of relish has bread, made of fine flour? |
13815 | but deprived of that too, whither, sir, shall we go? |
13815 | cried the Elephant,"what is to be done in this disaster? |
13815 | cried the Wolf;"pray, you greedy fellow, what greater reward can you possibly require? |
13815 | cried the next person they met;"are you not ashamed to ride and let your poor old Father go on foot?" |
13815 | demanded the Elephant,"and whence comest thou?" |
13815 | do 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? |
13815 | eat another''s grass? |
13815 | eating stupid sheep a crime? |
13815 | exclaimed the Wolf, with a sudden stop;"tied up? |
13815 | ho-- whither bound?" |
13815 | in 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? |
13815 | is that the way you serve Sheep in this part of the country?" |
13815 | my dear brother,"cried he, with affected concern,"can it really be you that I see down there? |
13815 | said he,"how is it I did not know of it?" |
13815 | said he,"is this the way My care and kindness you repay? |
13815 | said the Countryman,"have n''t you the manners to thank your host before you go?" |
13815 | said the Fly to the Ant,"can you for a moment compare yourself with me? |
13815 | said the Lion;"who ever heard of a Gadfly helping a Lion? |
13815 | said the old man;"do you expect me then to let you go?" |
13815 | she cried,"what''s the good of expecting a just reward? |
13815 | the Ass replied;"With heavier burdens will they ride?" |
13815 | the cricket answered;"why, God made them ears who can deny?" |
13815 | the man replies;"Shall Cats with us the game divide? |
13815 | thou art bound to me by neighbourship and kinship; why not this time, when thou goest, take me with thee? |
13815 | what art for a double part?_"The Hare and the Pig A Hare and a Pig once agreed to leap over a ditch. |
13815 | what great exaltation may I not bring about for myself?" |
13815 | what is it?" |
13815 | what movements are these which I behold in thee?" |
13815 | where can it be? |
13815 | why do n''t you invent something to protect you from the rain? |
19993 | ... but how could little Thumbelina ever care for him? 19993 A joiner?" |
19993 | A miller? |
19993 | A plowman? |
19993 | A present to us? |
19993 | A shoemaker? |
19993 | A smith? |
19993 | A useless little box,he said to himself, but back he raced with it to the soldier; and then-- what do you think happened? |
19993 | AND WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MINE? |
19993 | Alas, wife,he said,"art thou better off for being pope?" |
19993 | Alas, wife,said the man,"what should we be king for? |
19993 | Alas, wife,said the man,"what wilt thou not want? |
19993 | Alas, wife,said the man,"whatever dost thou want to be king for? |
19993 | Alas, wife,said the man,"why dost thou now want to be emperor?" |
19993 | Alas,said the man,"what am I to go back there for?" |
19993 | Am I to understand you have been doing all the work for me? |
19993 | An''are you sorry for our agreement? |
19993 | An''where would I get''em but in the heads of your own sheep? 19993 And do you blame me, master?" |
19993 | And do you say no more nor that? |
19993 | And how many pounds will you take, sir? |
19993 | And now, what are you doing here? |
19993 | And now, what funny thing was it you saw up yonder on the hillside? |
19993 | And now,asked the Fox,"what are you going to do with all that money?" |
19993 | And the cow? |
19993 | And the gold? |
19993 | And the horse? |
19993 | And the pig? |
19993 | And then? 19993 And then?" |
19993 | And what did Grethel give you? |
19993 | And what did Grethel give you? |
19993 | And what did Grethel give you? |
19993 | And what did she give you? |
19993 | And what did you do with it? |
19993 | And what did you hear, my Mary, All up on the Caldon hill? |
19993 | And what did you see, my Mary, All up on the Caldon Low? |
19993 | And what did you take to her? |
19993 | And what did you take to her? |
19993 | And what do you know? |
19993 | And what do you say to me,says Saint Kavin,"for making her the like?" |
19993 | And what good came of it at last? |
19993 | And what have you given her? |
19993 | And what might that one be? |
19993 | And what shall I bring for you, my Beauty? |
19993 | And what trade does he follow? |
19993 | And what was he doing? |
19993 | And what were the words, my Mary, That then you heard them say? |
19993 | And where are they? 19993 And where are you going?" |
19993 | And where do you wish to take me? |
19993 | And where have you left her, then? |
19993 | And where have you put it? |
19993 | And where have you put it? |
19993 | And where have you put it? |
19993 | And where is the Field of Miracles? |
19993 | And where may you be going, sweet lass? |
19993 | And where shall I look for''em? |
19993 | And who else should I mean? 19993 And who may you be, my pretty darling?" |
19993 | And who wo n''t you have, may I be so bold as to ask? |
19993 | And why did you shoulder it? |
19993 | And why were you wearing your sword? |
19993 | And your gold pieces? |
19993 | And,said the wolf,"where does your good Grannie live, little lady?" |
19993 | Are my companions ready? |
19993 | Are you afraid of poison? |
19993 | Are you awake, children? |
19993 | Are you friz? |
19993 | Are you having supper? |
19993 | Are you not very tired? |
19993 | Are you perhaps speaking of me? |
19993 | Are you warm, fair maiden? |
19993 | Are you warm, maiden? |
19993 | Are you warm, maiden? |
19993 | Ay,quoth Jack,"but pray tell me what is the meaning of your captivity?" |
19993 | BUT WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MINE AND TASTED IT ALL UP? |
19993 | Big? |
19993 | Blur- an- agers, how came ye to know about my goose? |
19993 | But are there really any brownies except children? |
19993 | But how is it possible that they could have become so many? |
19993 | But if you do the work, where is the brownie? |
19993 | But is it morning? 19993 But what am I to do under the tree?" |
19993 | But when do you do it? |
19993 | But where is Grannie? |
19993 | But why do n''t the other two do something? |
19993 | But will you gi''me all the ground the goose flew over? |
19993 | Can we gather some of these? |
19993 | Can you tell me,asked Sentaro,"where the hermits live who have the Elixir of Life?" |
19993 | Could you, could you? 19993 Dear friends,"said he,"whence come you?" |
19993 | Did I not say so? |
19993 | Did he not perform every task I required, even that of getting for me the water whereby I shall never grow old? |
19993 | Did n''t I always say so? |
19993 | Did they give him any wages, grandmother? |
19993 | Did they pay for supper? |
19993 | Did you ever see such stupid fellows? 19993 Did you find out the word?" |
19993 | Didst thou not wish for anything then? |
19993 | Do n''t be frightened,said the Beast gently,"but tell me, do you come here of your own free will?" |
19993 | Do n''t the clothes look fine? |
19993 | Do n''t you know me, my darling? |
19993 | Do n''t you wish you could_ see_ him? |
19993 | Do n''t you wish you were going to the ball? |
19993 | Do you hear that, wife, do you hear it? |
19993 | Do you know where you live? |
19993 | Do you only know one story? |
19993 | Do you see that big tree? |
19993 | Do you see that large white house? 19993 Do you think,"asked the King,"that she could be induced to change her mind?" |
19993 | Does he gain much? |
19993 | Does she indeed? |
19993 | Fanny, wouldst thou have the same gift as thy sister? |
19993 | Father,said Jack,"can you lodge a benighted traveler that has lost his way?" |
19993 | For why should I grumble and murmur? |
19993 | For yourself? |
19993 | Gain much? 19993 Give me a piece of your cake and a drink of your wine?" |
19993 | Good day, Master Antonio,said Geppetto;"what are you doing there on the floor?" |
19993 | Good day,replied Grethel,"what treasure do you bring to- day?" |
19993 | Have 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? |
19993 | Have you a passport? |
19993 | Have you come for me? |
19993 | Have you got the tinder- box? |
19993 | How can I get it? |
19993 | How can one be merry when one''s neck has been pinched like mine? |
19993 | How can such a ridiculous animal give me rational advice? |
19993 | How can we cross,said Hansel,"for there is no bridge anywhere?" |
19993 | How can you ask me? |
19993 | How come you to be here? |
19993 | How come you to be here? |
19993 | How dare you ride when your poor little boy is walking and can hardly keep pace with you? |
19993 | How do I know that she will not prove to be some old fright? |
19993 | How do you come to know my name? |
19993 | How do you know that? |
19993 | How 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?" |
19993 | How have you come to our house? |
19993 | How have you rested? |
19993 | How little was the pellet, uncle? |
19993 | How many are you, then,said I,"If they two are in heaven?" |
19993 | How many fingers before you? |
19993 | How many? 19993 How much money have you, fair Catherine?" |
19993 | How shall I reach home? |
19993 | How shall I set about it? |
19993 | How so? |
19993 | How tiny was the voice, Michael aroon? |
19993 | How was it, then,said the King,"that you came to kill them?" |
19993 | Husband,she said,"hast thou caught nothing to- day?" |
19993 | Husband,she said,"what art thou standing there for? |
19993 | I am King O''Toole,says he,"prince and plennypennytinchery of these parts,"says he;"but how came ye to know that?" |
19993 | I do n''t suppose you could tell me which way to go? |
19993 | I know that you are a great rascal; and where did you get the eyes? |
19993 | I 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?" |
19993 | I suppose you are a diamond? |
19993 | I want a little wood to make my puppet; will you give me some? |
19993 | I''ll give you whatever you ask,says the King;"is n''t that fair?" |
19993 | I? |
19993 | If you please, ma''am,said he,"will you give me some breakfast?" |
19993 | If you please, ma''am,said he,"would you kindly give me some breakfast? |
19993 | In what way? |
19993 | Is it a tinker you are? |
19993 | Is 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?" |
19993 | Is it fighting you''ve been? 19993 Is it making game of me you are? |
19993 | Is it possible to hear of anything more dreadful? |
19993 | Is it true that you have killed seven at one blow? |
19993 | Is it under your control? |
19993 | Is it where the feathery palm trees rise, And the date grows ripe under sunny skies? 19993 Is it you, Donald?" |
19993 | Is n''t your Buttercup at home to- day? |
19993 | Is she a good girl? |
19993 | Is that all true? |
19993 | Is that all? |
19993 | Is there any supper, grandmother? |
19993 | Is this splendid castle indeed yours? |
19993 | Is this the royal palace? |
19993 | Is this the way you are mending the path, Jack? |
19993 | Jack, you anointed scoundrel, what do you mean? |
19993 | Jack, you vagabone, do you see what the cows are at? |
19993 | Jack,Margaret whispered,"are you asleep?" |

19993 | Most gracious lord,said the Vizier,"what think you of these dignified long legs, and how would you like to know their chatter?" |
19993 | Must I thank you then,said the king,"Sir Lark, For flying so high and hating the dark? |
19993 | My good fellow,said a townsman whom they met,"is that ass your own?" |
19993 | No,said the man;"what was there to wish for?" |
19993 | Now who is cleverer? |
19993 | Now, Cinderella, can you find a coachman? |
19993 | Now, then, old shaver, what has crossed you? |
19993 | Now, what do you want? |
19993 | Now, what do you want? |

19993 | Now, what does she want? |
19993 | Now, what does she want? |
19993 | Now,said the woman,"is not this worth having?" |
19993 | Of course not, child; but do you know that I have some news for you? |
19993 | Of what use am I to you? |
19993 | Oh Giant,quoth Jack,"where are you now? |
19993 | Oh, dear Beast,she cried,"and are you really dead? |
19993 | Oh, grandmother, where did he go? |
19993 | Oh, heavens, where am I? |
19993 | Oh, must we walk across there? |
19993 | Oh, pray do n''t; why do you wish to do so? |
19993 | Oh, 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?" |
19993 | One puppy dog with brown spots on white? |
19993 | Or shall I tell you, children, About Red Riding Hood? 19993 Perhaps a broom- binder?" |
19993 | Pretty? 19993 Prithee,"quoth the giant,"what bad news can come to me? |
19993 | Ripe? |
19993 | Sisters and brothers, little maid, How many may you be? |
19993 | So you stand here all alone and hew, do you? |
19993 | So 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?" |
19993 | That''s it, is it? 19993 The first is: How many drops of water are there in the sea?" |
19993 | The second question,said the King,"is: How many stars are there in the sky?" |
19993 | Then the pardon is granted? |
19993 | Then you would have it that it was I? |
19993 | Then,said the door,"Broom, why do you sweep?" |
19993 | Then,said the window,"Door, why do you jar?" |
19993 | There is a large gray rat in the rat- trap-- would he do, Godmother? |
19993 | To whom does it belong? |
19993 | WHO HAS BEEN TASTING MY SOUP? |
19993 | Was it you, Woodpecker,said the King,"who sounded the war- gong?" |
19993 | Was she dreaming herself now? |
19993 | Was there no escape from the underground home? |
19993 | Well then, neighbor Geppetto,said the carpenter, to prove that peace was made,"what is the favor that you wish of me?" |

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

19993 | What shall we do now? |
19993 | What sort of animal has made this? |
19993 | What was your work? |
19993 | What wonder is it, pray, that a woodcutter should stand and hack up on a hillside? |
19993 | What would bring them there? |
19993 | What''ll you take for that hide? |
19993 | What''s going to be done? |
19993 | What''s that I heard you say? 19993 What''s the matter, friends?" |
19993 | What''s the matter? 19993 What''s the meaning of this?" |
19993 | What? |
19993 | Whatever is the matter? |
19993 | Where am I going now? |
19993 | Where are the real brownies, I say? |
19993 | Where are they all going? |

19993 | Who''s there? |
19993 | Whose wood is this? |
19993 | Why are you bringing me here? |
19993 | Why are you laughing? |

19993 | Why not? |
19993 | Why were they in such a hurry? |
19993 | Why were you, King- crab, trailing your three- edged pike? |
19993 | Why, then, are you such a glutton? |
19993 | Why, whatever is the matter? |
19993 | Why, who is that? |
19993 | Why, you are the kingdom, are you not? |
19993 | Why? |
19993 | Why? |
19993 | Wife,said the man, looking at her,"art thou now pope?" |
19993 | Will you be my bride? |
19993 | Will you let us set out a pan of water for the brownie, father? |
19993 | Will you now make my master the happiest of kings? |
19993 | Will you show me the sea, then? |
19993 | Will you take a gold piece? |
19993 | Would 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?" |
19993 | Would you not like to bring them their eyes again? 19993 Yes, so I am; now, is not that a pretty trade?" |
19993 | Yes,said the field- mouse;"what can a bird do but sing? |
19993 | You crow through marrow and bone,said the ass;"what do you do that for?" |
19993 | You must call them''squibs and crackers,''And what would you call her? |
19993 | You 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? |
19993 | You wo n''t go back o''your word? |
19993 | Your 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 | ( Eh, what is this? |

19993 | A courtier went round the King, and said,"Sire, may I have the prize?" |
19993 | A girl, seeing them, cried,"Why walk when you can ride?" |
19993 | A little girl passing by with a water- pitcher saw it shaking, and asked:"Why do you shake yourself, little tree?" |
19993 | A man goes riding by, Late at night when the fires are out, Why does he gallop and gallop about? |
19993 | ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON***** BABY- LAND Which is the way to Baby- Land? |
19993 | ARTHUR 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?" |
19993 | Accordingly he called together the foxes and said:"How is it that you still wear your tails? |
19993 | After some more talk the King says,"What are you?" |
19993 | Again he asked,"Are you still warm, dear maiden?" |
19993 | Again 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?" |
19993 | Ah, now, could n''t you take me with you?" |
19993 | Ai n''t you sorry for him? |
19993 | Aladdin and his Lamp? |
19993 | All that other folks can do, With your patience should not you? |
19993 | And Fox- lox said:"Where are you going?" |
19993 | And 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? |
19993 | And instead of two thousand supposing I found five thousand? |
19993 | And 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? |
19993 | And now tell me, girls, what shall I bring you when I come back?" |
19993 | And once when the queen asked her Looking- glass:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is the fairest of all?" |
19993 | And 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? |
19993 | And the Middling- sized Bear cried, in a Middling- sized Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR?" |
19993 | And 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?" |
19993 | And then the door asked:"Why are you screaming, Flea?" |
19993 | And then? |
19993 | And this, now,"showing the fire,"what would you call this?" |
19993 | And what did they want?" |
19993 | And what do you call all this?" |
19993 | And what do you call these?" |
19993 | And what do you think happened? |
19993 | And what do you think he did? |
19993 | And what do you think they are doing? |
19993 | And what would you call this?" |
19993 | And what, this?" |
19993 | And when she asked of the Looking- glass at home:"Looking- glass, Looking- glass, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all?" |
19993 | And when the Mouse- deer came into the presence of the King, the King inquired of the Otter,"What is your charge against him?" |
19993 | And when the lady had ceased to speak, the King said:"Connla, my son, has thy mind been moved by the words of the lady?" |
19993 | And where do you think she played? |
19993 | And where do you think she slept? |
19993 | And where was Grannie all this time, you will say? |
19993 | And why does that wheel go whirr, whirr, whirr?" |
19993 | And would n''t it be nicer For you to smile than pout, And so make sunshine in the house When there is none without? |
19993 | And would n''t it be nobler To keep your temper sweet, And in your heart be thankful You can walk upon your feet? |
19993 | And 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? |
19993 | And would n''t it be wiser Than waiting, like a dunce, To go to work in earnest And learn the thing at once? |
19993 | And ye do n''t know what this same gloomery is? |
19993 | And your papa and your mamma, are they still alive?" |
19993 | Are they nice apples?" |
19993 | Are you a beast of field and tree, Or just a stronger child than me? |
19993 | Are you a tailor?" |
19993 | Are you sorry for hiring me, master?" |
19993 | Are you sorry for it?" |
19993 | Are you sorry for our agreement?" |
19993 | Are you still warm, my dear?" |
19993 | As she did so, she heard-- what could it be? |
19993 | As 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?" |
19993 | At last Margaret said:"But where is Santa Claus? |
19993 | At last he spoke to the sisters, and asked:"To whom does this beautiful tree belong? |
19993 | At six o''clock the wolf came to the little pig''s house and said:"Little pig, are you ready?" |
19993 | At this the streamlet, from which she drew the water, asked:"Why do you break your pitcher, my little girl?" |
19993 | But 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? |
19993 | But how could she get it? |
19993 | But how was he going to find the way into the castle, that was the question? |
19993 | But in what way?" |
19993 | But is n''t he wise-- To jes''dream of stars, as the doctors advise? |
19993 | But 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?" |
19993 | But the Teeny Tiny Bear cried out, in a Teeny Tiny Voice of astonishment:"WHO HAS BEEN LYING ON MY BED AND LIES THERE STILL?" |
19993 | But they with gentle faces Sit quietly apart; What room have they for sorrowing While fairy minstrels sit and sing Close to each listening heart? |
19993 | But what am I to give you, old witch? |
19993 | But what became of the poor fox? |
19993 | But what could the little fish do to help Thumbelina? |
19993 | But 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? |
19993 | But when did that happen? |
19993 | But when they had gone a good bit she grew weary, and asked,"How far is it off to Snoring?" |
19993 | But where have you bought that fine goose?" |
19993 | But why do you want a baby? |
19993 | But 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? |
19993 | CHARLES KINGSLEY***** FOREIGN LANDS Up into the cherry tree Who should climb but little me? |

19993 | Do you blame me, sir?" |
19993 | Do you know how hard a hermit''s life is? |

19993 | Have you never heard how water rises from a spring in the earth?" |
19993 | He asked,"What reward will be given to the man who kills Cormoran?" |
19993 | He 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?" |
19993 | He heard the goose- girl say,"O Falada, hang you there?" |
19993 | He looked down at her as she stood by his horse, and said:"Little Two Eyes, what shall I give you for this?" |
19993 | He rubbed his eyes and said:"Alas, wife, what didst thou say?" |
19993 | He said to her:"What will you call me?" |
19993 | He said to the fox,"May I go into the sea?" |
19993 | He 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?" |
19993 | He stood before her, and said,"Alas, wife, art thou now king?" |
19993 | He then asked:"And where did my good friends say they would wait for me?" |
19993 | He then asked:"Is there anything else to be done?" |
19993 | He turned round, and what did he see? |
19993 | Her hair stood on end; she panted for breath, and screamed:"I wo n''t bear it any longer; wilt thou go?" |
19993 | Her husband stood still, and said,"Wife, art thou now emperor?" |
19993 | His eyes glistened and for the last time he asked,"Are you warm, now, beautiful maiden? |
19993 | His old favorite sadly knelt and kissed his hand, saying:"Sire, how have I offended?" |
19993 | How are you?" |
19993 | How can I feed my hungry little ones when we have no food for ourselves?" |
19993 | How could she reach the shore? |
19993 | How could she say good- by for ever to the beautiful sunshine? |
19993 | How could she tell which door she had marked? |
19993 | How could the King refuse so harmless a request? |
19993 | How dare you ask me how I am getting on? |
19993 | How do you do?" |
19993 | How do you do?" |
19993 | How do you do?" |
19993 | How do you do?" |
19993 | How do you do?" |
19993 | How do you manage yours?" |
19993 | How grieved she was, too, for had she not lost her little friend the butterfly? |
19993 | How many arts are you master of?" |
19993 | How slow its pace; and then its hue-- Who ever saw so fine a blue?" |
19993 | However long he lived here, life would always be the same, so was it not foolish and wearisome to stay on here for ever? |
19993 | Hungry? |
19993 | Hurrah for the pumpkin- pie? |
19993 | I am not a brownie, am I?" |
19993 | I have one which is a little damaged indeed, but for which I would ask nothing more than your goose; would that suit you?" |
19993 | I 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?" |
19993 | I wonder if trees will come out of the forest to look at me? |
19993 | I''ve as many legs as you: Why ca n''t we walk on two?" |
19993 | I''ve been to London To look at the Queen Pussy- cat, pussy- cat, What did you there? |
19993 | III"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling Your ring?" |
19993 | If I have money as often as I feel in my pocket, what else shall I have to care about?" |
19993 | If it were only not so dark here, and so terribly solitary!--not even a little hare? |
19993 | If we strive,''tis no disgrace Though we may not win the race; What should you do in that case? |
19993 | Immediately the Beast opened his eyes, sighed, and said:"Beauty, will you marry me?" |
19993 | In me he delighted, By him I was knighted; Did you never hear of Sir Thomas Thumb?" |
19993 | In 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?" |
19993 | In 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? |
19993 | In the spring, when the Swallows and the Stork came, the Tree asked them,"Do you know where they were taken? |
19993 | Is anything wrong, that you do not speak?" |
19993 | Is it nice and warm? |
19993 | Is it possible that this piece of wood can have learnt to cry and to lament like a child? |
19993 | Is it there, sweet mother, that better land?" |
19993 | Is it where the flower of the orange blows, And the fireflies dance through the myrtle boughs?" |
19993 | Is it you?" |
19993 | Is the pudding done? |
19993 | Is this Sunday?" |
19993 | JAMES MERRICK***** THE BLACKBERRY GIRL"Why, Phebe, are you come so soon? |
19993 | Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, How many were going to St. Ives? |
19993 | LEWIS CARROLL***** WHERE GO THE BOATS? |
19993 | Little 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? |
19993 | Little Snow- white looked out of the window and called out:"Good- day, my good woman, what have you to sell?" |
19993 | Margaret, do n''t you wish you could see Santa Claus? |
19993 | May I make bold to ask how is your goose, King O''Toole?" |
19993 | May n''t Massachusetts prove as great As any other sister state? |
19993 | Maybe you''re sorry for your bargain?" |
19993 | Meanwhile 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?... |
19993 | Mother opened the gate and said,--"Well, what have you seen to- day?" |
19993 | Next they met a herd of cattle, and again to the King''s question,"To whom do they belong?" |
19993 | No? |
19993 | Not having so much as a fish- bone to give to him, what did my friend, who has really the heart of a Cæsar, do? |
19993 | Now the mole was very wise and very clever, but how could little Thumbelina ever care for him? |
19993 | Now the question to be settled was, who should undertake to fasten the bell round the Cat''s neck? |
19993 | Now 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?" |
19993 | Now there was an old form outside the house, and when the window creaked, the form said:"Window, why do you creak?" |
19993 | Now what will you have?" |
19993 | Now, Nursey, what makes you remind me? |
19993 | Now, 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?" |
19993 | Now, do you know where your brother is?" |
19993 | Now, next the ashes there grew a tree, which asked:"Little heap, why do you burn?" |
19993 | Now, 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?" |
19993 | O gholes, You queer little drolls, Do you mean....?" |
19993 | O you that are so strong and cold, O blower, are you young or old? |
19993 | Of what use are they? |
19993 | Oh arriving he saw that his children had been killed, and exclaimed,"How comes it, Friend Mouse- deer, that my babies have died?" |
19993 | Oh do n''t you remember the babes in the wood?" |
19993 | Oh, who are so happy as we?" |
19993 | Oh, you think it was smaller than that? |
19993 | Once, 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?" |
19993 | One 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?" |
19993 | Only the Fir Tree was quite silent, and thought,"Shall I not be in it? |
19993 | Or how sweet Cinderella went So gaily to the ball?" |
19993 | Or shall I tell the story Of Puss in Boots-- the scamp? |
19993 | Or what befell those little Babes Who wandered in the Wood? |
19993 | Or would you like to hear the tale Of Blue Beard, fierce and grim? |
19993 | Or, where''s the boy but three feet high Who''s made improvement more than I? |
19993 | Or, where''s the town, go far or near, That does not find a rival here? |
19993 | Out came the cobbler:"How much for your hides, my men?" |
19993 | Out came the tanner:"How much for your hides, my good men?" |
19993 | Perhaps I may marry a Princess too?" |
19993 | Pif- paf Poltrie, what trade are you? |
19993 | Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day in the morning? |
19993 | Pray whither sailed those ships all three On Christmas day, on Christmas day? |
19993 | Pray, what do I want with a hundred men? |
19993 | Presently the wise woman stood again before her, and said,"Little Two Eyes, why do you weep?" |
19993 | Presently the wolf asked:"Why are you running about so, you fox, jumping in and out?" |
19993 | Prince, have you come at last? |
19993 | Quoth he,"What news with my poor cousin Jack?" |
19993 | ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** A LOBSTER QUADRILLE"Will you walk a little faster?" |
19993 | ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON***** THE SPIDER AND THE FLY"Will you walk into my parlor?" |
19993 | SYDNEY DOBELL***** THE DEATH AND BURIAL OF COCK ROBIN Who killed Cock Robin? |
19993 | Said the cunning spider to the fly:"Dear friend, what can I do To prove the warm affection I''ve always felt for you? |
19993 | See here, now, could we not be king over all this land? |
19993 | Shall I grow fast here, and stand adorned in summer and winter?" |
19993 | Shall I have nothing to do in it?" |
19993 | Shall we not seek it and weep no more? |
19993 | She took him by the hand, and said:"Come and look in here-- isn''t this much better?" |
19993 | Snapping his fingers in her lovely face, he asked:"Do you know who I am? |
19993 | So Mrs. Stone only asked,"Where were you going when you came to my house?" |
19993 | So Nora turned the key at once, and out stepped----""A fairy, Michael?" |
19993 | So all ended well, and what more could anyone wish? |
19993 | So he called out:"Little house, pretty house, my sweet little house, why do you not give an answer when I call? |
19993 | So, 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? |
19993 | Suppose 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?" |
19993 | Suppose you''re dressed for walking, And the rain comes pouring down, Will it clear off any sooner Because you scold and frown? |
19993 | Suppose your task, my little man, Is very hard to get, Will it make it any easier For you to sit and fret? |
19993 | Suppose, my little lady, Your doll should break her head, Could you make it whole by crying Till your eyes and nose are red? |
19993 | Surely you do not hang sheep?" |
19993 | That vagabond, bad luck to him----""You mean Donald O''Neary?" |
19993 | That, I suppose, would be quite impossible?" |
19993 | The Jogi, seeing the lad, called out fiercely,"What do you want here?" |
19993 | The King was astonished and asked:"What does this all mean?" |
19993 | The 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?" |
19993 | The 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?" |
19993 | The fifth,"Who has been using my fork?" |
19993 | The first said,"Who has been sitting on my chair?" |
19993 | The flounder came swimming up, and said:"Well, what do you want?" |
19993 | The fourth,"Who has been eating my fruit?" |
19993 | The giant cried out again,"Art thou that villain who killed my kinsmen? |
19993 | The giant roared out at this like thunder,"Who''s there?" |
19993 | The 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? |
19993 | The horseman, who heard this, pulled up and cried,"Hullo, Hans why do you trudge on foot?" |
19993 | The 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?" |
19993 | The latch was lifted, and a voice said,--"Have you seen a little girl in a white frock pass this way?" |
19993 | The 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?" |
19993 | The next morning, when she and Curdken drove their geese under the gate, the Princess wrung her hands and cried:"O Falada, hang you there?" |
19993 | The old woman nodded her head to them, and said:"Who brought you here, my pets? |
19993 | The same fond mother bent at night O''er each fair, sleeping brow; She had each folded flower in sight: Where are those sleepers now? |
19993 | The second,"Who has been eating off my plate?" |
19993 | The seventh,"Who has been drinking out of my mug?" |
19993 | The sixth,"Who has been cutting with my knife?" |
19993 | The third,"Who has been taking some of my bread?" |
19993 | The 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? |
19993 | The wolf said,"What is the sea?" |
19993 | The young Prince set out on his journey, but he sighed and felt very sorrowful, for where was he to find the golden horse? |
19993 | Then Jock said,"_ Little_ dogs?" |
19993 | Then Tatty sat down and wept, and a three- legged stool said:"Tatty, why do you weep?" |
19993 | Then a broom in the corner of the room said:"Stool, why do you hop?" |
19993 | Then he asked the third:"Why have you such a big thumb?" |
19993 | Then he looked at her for some time, and said,"Alas, wife, how much better off art thou for being emperor?" |
19993 | Then he said:"Little Two Eyes, can you break off a branch of the tree for me?" |
19993 | Then he said:"Whatever are you three doing, sitting there crying, and letting the beer run all over the floor?" |
19993 | Then he went to the second, and asked:"Why have you such an overhanging lip?" |
19993 | Then she asked,"Who will take this wheat to the mill?" |
19993 | Then the King commanded the Great Lizard to be summoned, and when he arrived, the King inquired,"Was it you, Lizard, wearing your sword?" |
19993 | Then the King said unto the Mouse- deer,"Was it your doing that the Otter''s children were killed?" |
19993 | Then the King sent for the Crayfish, and said,"Was it you, Crayfish, who was shouldering your lance?" |
19993 | Then the child said,"Good lark, will you send home Tiny Bill to play with me?" |
19993 | Then the envious mother cried out to poor little Two Eyes,"You wish to have better food than we, do you? |
19993 | Then the first looked round and saw that there was a little hole in his bed, and he said:"Who has been getting into my bed?" |
19993 | There must be something grander, something greater still to come; but what? |
19993 | There was a young lady in blue, Who said,"Is it you? |
19993 | There was a young maid who said,"Why Ca n''t I look in my ear with my eye? |
19993 | There was an Old Man who said"How Shall I flee from this horrible Cow? |
19993 | There was an old person of Ware Who rode on the back of a bear; When they said,"Does it trot?" |
19993 | Thereupon the King said:"The third question is: How many seconds are there in eternity?" |
19993 | Thereupon the door began to creak as if it were in pain; and a broom, which stood in the corner, asked,"What are you creaking for, door?" |
19993 | They are waiting on the shingle-- will you come and join the dance? |
19993 | They had gone almost half- way when the Fox, halting suddenly, said to the puppet:"Would you like to double your money?" |
19993 | This noise roused the giant, who rushed from his cave, crying:"You incorrigible villain, are you come here to disturb my rest? |
19993 | This piece of wood here it is; a log for fuel like all others, and thrown on the fire it would about suffice to boil a saucepan of beans.... How then? |
19993 | Turning to Pinocchio he asked:"Well, what do you want from me?" |
19993 | UNKNOWN***** THE FAIRIES OF THE CALDON LOW A MIDSUMMER LEGEND"And where have you been, my Mary, And where have you been from me?" |
19993 | VI THE SHOWMAN BECOMES GENEROUS The following day Fire- eater called Pinocchio to one side and asked him:"What is your father''s name?" |
19993 | Well, how about the seed of a coriander? |
19993 | Well, the long and the short of it was that Donald let the hide go, and, that very evening, who but he should walk up to Hudden''s door? |
19993 | What are little boys made of? |

19993 | What good will it do you to kill me? |
19993 | What good would forty heads do her? |
19993 | What happens then?" |
19993 | What have you there hanging at your belt?" |
19993 | What in the world did you make such a noise for?" |
19993 | What is to happen?" |
19993 | What kind of thing is this sea, and how does it look?" |
19993 | What more could I desire?" |
19993 | What place are you going to?" |
19993 | What shall be done for her who still From mischief can refrain?" |

19993 | What''s the matter?" |
19993 | What, leaving your Mother, you foolish young pig? |
19993 | Whatever can I do to get rid of him?" |
19993 | When may that be done? |
19993 | When the Great Big Bear went to sit down in his Great Big Chair, he cried out in his Great Big Voice:"WHO HAS BEEN SITTING ON MY CHAIR?" |
19993 | When the sun got low, the King''s son said,"Jack, since we have no money, where can we lodge this night?" |
19993 | When they said,"Is it small?" |
19993 | Whence came you? |
19993 | Where are they, and where are their tiny commodities? |
19993 | Where are you going to, you little pig? |

19993 | Where have you been?" |
19993 | Where have you been?" |
19993 | Where the burning rays of the ruby shine, And the diamond lights up the secret mine, And the pearl gleams forth from the coral strand? |
19993 | Where were they going? |
19993 | Whereabouts? |
19993 | Whither are they taken?" |
19993 | Who caught his blood? |
19993 | Who could it be? |
19993 | Who goes there? |
19993 | Who goes there?"... |
19993 | Who has been sweeping the kitchen lately, I should like to know?" |
19993 | Who is the Queen of Baby- Land? |

19993 | Why do n''t they work?" |
19993 | Why do they keep all their branches? |
19993 | Why do you not listen to my advice? |
19993 | Why should n''t I have them all to myself?" |
19993 | Why, just suppose it was you? |
19993 | Will no other diet serve you but poor Jack?" |
19993 | Will the sparrows fly against the panes? |
19993 | Will you begin, if you please, and put in the thatch again, just as if you were doing it for your mother''s cabin?" |
19993 | Will you come with us? |
19993 | Will you come with us?" |
19993 | Will you hear the story of Ivede- Avede, or of Klumpey- Dumpey, who fell downstairs, and still was raised up to honor and married the Princess?" |
19993 | Will you lend me your best pair of scales?" |
19993 | Will you not lend me your old yellow gown, that I may go to the ball to- morrow with you?" |
19993 | Will you rest upon my little bed?" |
19993 | Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, will you join the dance? |

19993 | Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, wo n''t you join the dance? |
19993 | Will you, wo n''t you, will you, wo n''t you, wo n''t you join the dance?" |
19993 | Would he fly away, she wondered, or would her sash hold him fast? |
19993 | Would n''t it be a fine thing for a farmer to be marrying a Princess, all dressed in gold and jewels?" |
19993 | Would you have me meddle with the bastes of any neighbor, who might put me in the Stone Jug for it?" |
19993 | Yes, then something even better will come, something far more charming, or else why should they adorn me so? |
19993 | You are asking me how tiny was the voice? |
19993 | You have eaten the whole as you stood godfather; first_ Top- off_, then_ Half- out_, then--""Will you be quiet?" |
19993 | You have heard the sound of the rivulet when it falls upon the mossy stones in the pasture by the bar- way? |
19993 | You make more noise in the world than I, But whose is the sweeter minstrelsy?" |
19993 | You might make her look all mended-- but what do I care for looks? |
19993 | You want to see Santa Claus? |
19993 | You will give me and baby bread and butter with sugar on it, wo n''t you?" |
19993 | You would n''t wish to keep the luck all to yourself?" |
19993 | _ All- out!_ What can that mean?" |
19993 | and going up to the one with a broad foot, he asked:"Why have you such a broad foot?" |
19993 | and instead of five thousand that I found a hundred thousand? |
19993 | and the echo in the surrounding hills repeated in the distance:"Who goes there? |
19993 | and what would you be taking their feet off for?" |
19993 | are you there? |
19993 | can I not cause the sun and the moon to rise? |
19993 | corrected to''?'' |
19993 | cried her sister angrily;"lend one of my dresses to a little cinder- maid? |
19993 | cried her sisters;"you, with your two eyes, what can you do?" |
19993 | cries the other in a fury--"Why, sir!--d''ye think I''ve lost my eyes?" |
19993 | do I dream, or am I awake? |
19993 | do n''t you wish that you were me? |
19993 | do n''t you wish that you were me? |
19993 | exclaimed the bridegroom,"how is it you have such ugly relations?" |
19993 | he cried,"what will my poor children do without me?" |
19993 | how are you, and how do you get along in these hard times?" |
19993 | is that the courteous way in which you make your presents, Master Antonio? |
19993 | laughed the little pig;"so I frightened you, eh? |
19993 | let us be married; too long we have tarried; But what shall we do for a ring?" |
19993 | oh!?''... |
19993 | oh, where is that radiant shore? |
19993 | or mayhap you met the police, ill luck to them?" |
19993 | quoth the Prince,"what shall we do there? |
19993 | quoth the giant;"did you not feel anything in the night?" |
19993 | quoth the old frog,"How big? |
19993 | said Jack again;"So you lie here, and trickle and run down all alone?" |
19993 | said he,"where shall I find a Princess now? |
