25919 | And about her having been seen wearing it? |
25919 | And did she speak to you too? |
25919 | And for once Britain''s Navy was not invincible, eh, Puffin? |

25919 | And the Count? |
25919 | And was n''t Mrs. Plaistow down on her like a knife about it? 25919 And was the Prince of Wales there?" |

25919 | And where does your nice Captain, no, Major Flint live? 25919 And while Diva is checking the score may I have a peep at the stars, dear? |
25919 | And whose whisky is it? |
25919 | And why should there be nary a wee drappie o''champagne in it? |
25919 | And why, Major, was it necessary for you to pack a Gladstone bag in order to stop me from running away? 25919 And will no one touch my drawing? |
25919 | And your dear mother? |
25919 | Another visit of the Prince of Wales, I asked myself, or the Voice that breathed o''er Eden? 25919 Any message?" |
25919 | Are n''t you going to join me, Major? |
25919 | Are you coming with me? |

25919 | But how much do they allow you to have? |
25919 | But how shall we explain it all to everybody? |
25919 | But what does it contain, then? |
25919 | But where is your basket, Miss Mapp? |
25919 | But whomever for? |
25919 | But why should I want to make it up? 25919 But why top- hat and frock- coat, Major?" |
25919 | But woz''it all been about? |
25919 | But ye guid Dame Poppit has insisted that I take a wee hand at the cartes with them, the wifey and I. Prithee, shall we meet there? |
25919 | But, good Lord, where''s the connection? |
25919 | By the by, Elizabeth, what about the-- the teagown, if I go? 25919 By the way, are you Poppiting this afternoon?" |

25919 | Can you hear? |
25919 | Cribbed? |
25919 | Cup of tea, dear Susan? |
25919 | Dear Mrs. Poppit,she said,"if you are walking by my little house, would you give me two minutes''talk? |
25919 | Dear me, they are very much alike too, are n''t they? 25919 Did she suggest it?" |
25919 | Dinner? |
25919 | Diva, you''ve not been hoarding, have you? |
25919 | Do for it? 25919 Do n''t you think you overbid your hand just a little wee bit?" |
25919 | Do you like it, dear? 25919 Drowned, dear?" |
25919 | Eh? |
25919 | Ever occurred to you that they drink? |
25919 | Figgis, what do I do next? |
25919 | Found your hanky, dear? |
25919 | Going to let the world have a look at them some day? |
25919 | Got any big tins of corned beef? 25919 Has Mr. Wyse gone away already, dear Isabel?" |
25919 | Has all this happened this morning? |
25919 | Have you any pop- corn in your reservoir? |
25919 | Having a bit crack with wee wifey? 25919 How did such an idea get into your head, Kenneth?" |
25919 | How? |
25919 | I have your permission, I hope? |
25919 | I looked out of the window, dear, while you went for your hanky and peeped into dining- room and boudoir, did n''t you? 25919 I wonder if you''ve got a nice little dab for my dinner to- day? |
25919 | Is he not lively? 25919 Is it all too terribly true?" |
25919 | Is n''t it true? |
25919 | Is that not grand? 25919 It would really be a kindness to me, Mrs. Poppit,"she said;"( No diamonds at all, partner?) |
25919 | Kiss and friends again, then? |
25919 | Lunching at the Poppits''to- morrow? |
25919 | May I pop up for a moment, dear? |
25919 | May we go marketing together to- morrow, and we will measure the size of our baskets? 25919 Me to cut?" |
25919 | Miss Mapp,he said,"will you honour me by taking the head of my table and be hostess for me? |
25919 | Mr. Wyse himself? |
25919 | Much? |
25919 | Nay, prithee, why naughty? |
25919 | Never saw such stunning gowns, eh, Padre? |
25919 | Not hurt? |
25919 | Not very expensive, I trust? |
25919 | Now may I have your permission to lead what I think best? 25919 Now where''s that soda water you offered me just now?" |
25919 | Of course, you''re within your right, Bartlett: might is right, hey? 25919 Oh, Mamma, may I stand by you, or behind you?" |
25919 | Oh, my new frock? |
25919 | Oh, then, have n''t you heard, dear? |
25919 | On a string? 25919 Or did she go up to the hills on the deck of the P. and O.? |
25919 | Or do I understand that a monopoly of cutting up chintz curtains for personal adornment has been bestowed on you by Act of Parliament? |
25919 | Perhaps she was the cause of our quarrel, hey? 25919 Red currant fool at last,"thought Miss Mapp, adding aloud:"O poor little me, is it, to declare? |
25919 | Sables? |
25919 | Saw who? |
25919 | Say there''s nothing in it? |
25919 | See you at about four? 25919 Seen my Janet anywhere?" |
25919 | Shall I peep in for a moment? |
25919 | Shall we cut? |
25919 | Shall we have a rubber first and then some tea? 25919 Shall we pop into the garden, dear, till my guests come?" |
25919 | Should I be sitting here and drinking your whisky if I had? 25919 Should I, dearest?" |
25919 | So kind of you, Isabel,she said,"but I am very busy to- day, and you did n''t give me much notice, did you? |
25919 | Suicide? |
25919 | Then shall we cut for partners again? 25919 Think I do n''t know a worm- cast when I see a worm- cast?" |
25919 | Think he''ll marry her? |
25919 | Think it''s serious? |
25919 | Together? |
25919 | Toothache, darling? |
25919 | Very infectious, is n''t it? 25919 Want me?" |
25919 | Was she in it? |
25919 | Well, upon my word, what''s a game of golf compared with the pleasure of being with the ladies? |
25919 | Well, what more can I do? |
25919 | Well? |
25919 | Were you looking for me? |
25919 | What about the portmanteau? |
25919 | What am I to do? |
25919 | What are we to do, ma''am? |
25919 | What are you going to do, dear Padre? |
25919 | What can I do? |
25919 | What did they quarrel about? |
25919 | What do we suppose was the cause of the quarrel? |
25919 | What do you do for it, Major? |
25919 | What else does she know? |
25919 | What has happened to your devoted Lucy? |
25919 | What portmanteau? |
25919 | What time, dear? |
25919 | What was that? |
25919 | What''s that? |
25919 | What''s the news then? |
25919 | What? 25919 Which of you beat? |
25919 | Who? |
25919 | Why did Major Benjy pack it and send it to the station this morning? 25919 Why is that?" |
25919 | Why the hell-- hallelujah did you go on when I did n''t support you? |
25919 | Why, you do n''t think that was the Prince, do you, Miss Mapp? 25919 Will you put as many as you can back in the cupboard and take the rest indoors? |
25919 | Will you send it round immediately? |
25919 | Would you be very kind, Mrs. Dominic, and just see for certain that he is not in his room? 25919 Woz''it all been about?" |
25919 | Yes, Withers? |
25919 | Yes? |
25919 | You do n''t mean to say it''s empty? |
25919 | You going to cut me too? |
25919 | You know Miss Mapp, do n''t you? |
25919 | You wish to see me, Major Flint? |
25919 | Your deal, is it, Major Benjy? |
25919 | Your pardon? |
25919 | Your reservoir in the garden- room has n''t gone''pop''again, I hope, darling? |
25919 | ("What makes Diva''s face so red?" |
25919 | A little coarse too, at times, is n''t she? |
25919 | A little overbidding of your hand, perhaps, do you think? |
25919 | About Mrs. Poppit now: had she gone to see Mr. Wyse or had she gone to the dentist? |
25919 | All those shillings mine? |
25919 | An, an anonymous letter, eh?" |
25919 | And a little chocolate- cake?" |
25919 | And did he really find Roman roads so wonderfully exhilarating? |
25919 | And how, if it was all too true, should Tilling treat this hitherto unprecedented situation? |
25919 | And if( the only other alternative) it did not----? |
25919 | And should love be added to this august list? |
25919 | And was that not Miss Coles last night at my brother''s? |
25919 | And we meet for lunch at dear Mr. Wyse''s the next day? |
25919 | And what do you imagine was the root of the quarrel?" |
25919 | And what have you done to- day? |
25919 | And what is the news this morning? |
25919 | And what price, to put it vulgarly, Roman roads? |
25919 | And what was it about this time? |
25919 | And what''s the station for Ardingly Park if it is n''t Tilling? |
25919 | And who''s going to rub it in, my friend? |
25919 | And why seek any further for the explanation of the lump of ice and the red currants( probably damaged) which she had observed Isabel purchase? |
25919 | And will you wear your pretty rosebud frock?" |
25919 | And, better than either, was there not some sort of corn called pop- corn, which Americans ate?... |
25919 | And-- so stupid of me to forget just now-- will you come in after dinner on Wednesday for a little rubber? |
25919 | Any news this bright morning?" |
25919 | Anything special?" |
25919 | Are they sisters? |
25919 | Are you_ du demi- monde_, Miss Mapp?" |
25919 | As for Mr. Wyse, was he not a constant visitor to the fierce and fickle South, where, as everyone knew, morality was wholly extinct? |
25919 | At what time, in case you are ever so kind and indulgent as to come, shall we have it? |
25919 | Been for a walk? |
25919 | But a wee bit satirical, do you think?" |
25919 | But do n''t you find when you''re painting that all these bright colours disturb you?" |
25919 | But there was no sign at present of the red- currant fool, which was baffling...."And have you had a good game of golf, Major?" |
25919 | But what could the frock- coat mean? |
25919 | But what did a true Tillingite want with a butler and a motor- car? |
25919 | But what has happened to your pretty curtains?" |
25919 | But what on earth was she doing that for? |
25919 | But what would be done with ten? |
25919 | But when you have your bridge- party, wo n''t you perhaps cover some of them up, or turn them to the wall? |
25919 | But why are you not_ du monde_? |
25919 | But why did n''t they go? |
25919 | By what formula could this deadly antagonism be bridged without delay? |
25919 | Can you hear?" |
25919 | Can you hear?" |
25919 | Can you possibly forgive the joint stupidity of Figgis and me, and honour me after all? |
25919 | Captain Puffin has had too much to drink----""Woz that?" |
25919 | Dear Isabel, I wish you had been there to hear it, and then----""Oh, Mamma, what did he say?" |
25919 | Did Janet mind?" |
25919 | Did he then work at his diaries every evening? |
25919 | Did n''t want another, hey?" |
25919 | Did orchids grow on the lawn? |
25919 | Did you think it was hearts? |
25919 | Do n''t you see? |
25919 | Do they kiss? |
25919 | Dominic?" |
25919 | Eh?" |
25919 | For what garish purpose could she want to use bunches of roses cut out of chintz curtains? |
25919 | For which of them could be absolutely certain that next time the other of them might not be more courageous?... |
25919 | Forgotten the address, Miss Mapp? |
25919 | Give me the hole?" |
25919 | Had Diva and Miss Greele put their heads together too? |
25919 | Had Diva got a bit of old stuff...? |
25919 | Had a nice game of golf? |
25919 | Had she gone to put on her sable coat on this hot night? |
25919 | Had she just said to Hopkins one morning:"Will you come to my studio and take off all your clothes?" |
25919 | Has a little bird been whispering anything?" |
25919 | Have a drink-- one of mine, I mean? |
25919 | He had little bathing- drawers on...."Hullo, Hopkins, are you ready?" |
25919 | He is the intervener, or is it the King''s Proctor? |
25919 | He let this sink in, then added:"Have a drink, old chap?" |
25919 | How de do, Evie love?" |
25919 | How had Irene started the overtures that led to this? |
25919 | How is your dear Isabel?" |
25919 | How was the dear King?" |
25919 | I bought the biggest I could find: is it as big as yours?" |
25919 | If you are going into the town, will you take me with you? |
25919 | If you call him drunk, why should n''t he call you drunk? |
25919 | If you will do me the favour to consult the rules of golf----?" |
25919 | Is n''t that lucky?" |
25919 | Is she going to steal some of my luggage?" |
25919 | Married already is he to the mouse? |
25919 | May I assure you, with all delicacy, that you will not meet here anyone whose presence could cause you the slightest embarrassment? |
25919 | May I look? |
25919 | Meet you there? |
25919 | Mr. Figgis always took a long time in coming, and when he came he sneezed or did something disagreeable and said:"Yes, yes; what is it?" |
25919 | Mrs. Mapp, the little round one, and her sister, the big round one?" |
25919 | Not a little wee rubber more? |
25919 | Not another rubber? |
25919 | Not been hoarding food, too, dear Diva? |
25919 | Not quite well again, Major Benjy? |
25919 | Nothing more?" |
25919 | Now, what have we got for breakfast-- lunch, I should say?" |
25919 | One for your button- hole, Major Benjy? |
25919 | Or did Susan tell you?" |
25919 | Or should she poison Mr. Wyse''s mind with regard to Susan?... |
25919 | Or was she herself causelessly agitated? |
25919 | Playing? |
25919 | Poppit''s?" |
25919 | Poppit?" |
25919 | Query-- Whose? |
25919 | Remember? |
25919 | Shall I say''no trumps?''" |
25919 | Shall we go into my little garden shed, dear Mrs. Poppit, and have our tea?" |
25919 | Shall we see her at Tilling at all, do you think?" |
25919 | She gave a croak of laughter and tickled the crab...."Will he eat the steak, do you think?" |
25919 | Similar calls?" |
25919 | So I''ll try to look in if I can, shall I? |
25919 | So kind of him, is n''t it? |
25919 | Straight from Paris, eh? |
25919 | Such brave little darlings, are n''t they? |
25919 | Such late hours, of course, amply accounted for these late breakfasts; but why, so Miss Mapp pithily asked herself, why these late hours? |
25919 | Suppose they all go on making allusions to duelling and early trains and that? |
25919 | Tell me this, too: why are those ladies dressed alike? |
25919 | That Contessa Faraglione was rather a mythical personage to Miss Mapp''s mind: she was certainly not in a medià ¦ val copy of"Who''s Who?" |
25919 | That dinner_ en famille_, so Miss Mapp sarcastically reflected-- what if it was the first of hundreds of similar dinners_ en famille_? |
25919 | The Padre had said"What ho, i''fegs?" |
25919 | The one who spat in the fire when nobody but I was looking? |
25919 | Then what else do you think? |
25919 | Think they''ll remember it at the post office? |
25919 | To- day, is it?" |
25919 | To- morrow?" |
25919 | Was Mr. Wyse staggering under its weight as he fitted her into it? |
25919 | Was it possible that Mr. Wyse had been satirical about the affairs of Tilling? |
25919 | Was the news of the engagement coming to her at last? |
25919 | Was there another duel pending? |
25919 | Well, I''ll step across, shall I, about half- past nine, and bring my diaries with me?" |
25919 | What are we playing for, by the way?" |
25919 | What called him away? |
25919 | What day do you think? |
25919 | What do you say, Major?" |
25919 | What does Miss Poppit want?" |
25919 | What happened? |
25919 | What if Diva went flying round Tilling, suggesting that in addition to being cowards those two men were drunkards? |
25919 | What if he never did return? |
25919 | What if they have sent it away to some place where they are unknown, full of pistols and things?" |
25919 | What if this unseemly good- humour was due to incipient intoxication? |
25919 | What is Mr. Hopkins doing with Miss Coles? |
25919 | What says everybody?" |
25919 | What she said the other night when she was playing Patience, about the queens and kings, was n''t quite-- was it? |
25919 | What''s this all about now?" |
25919 | When do you expect her?" |
25919 | Where can I have seen something like it before?" |
25919 | Where has it come back from? |
25919 | Where is the list of things that Figgis told me to buy? |
25919 | Whether you ought to have any special hymn? |
25919 | Which of all you ladies do they love most? |
25919 | Who can tell the age of a kipper?... |
25919 | Who would not sooner play golf all alone( if that was possible) than with him, or spend an evening alone rather than with his companionship? |
25919 | Who''s been rubbing away for all she''s worth? |
25919 | Whom did you play with?" |
25919 | Why ask me?" |
25919 | Why did it go there?" |
25919 | Why does not one of you gentlemen marry her? |
25919 | Why had he ever attempted( and with such small success) to call this fire- eater a hippopotamus? |
25919 | Why this sober and chastened darkness?... |
25919 | Why, so she asked herself for the hundredth time, if the portmanteau contained the fatal apparatus of duelling, did not the combatants accompany it? |
25919 | Will no one have a little more red- currant fool? |
25919 | Will you have some more, Miss?" |
25919 | Will you send it up then, please? |
25919 | With what object then could the former have gone down to the station to catch the early train? |
25919 | Would Diva, she wondered, be at her window, snipping roses out of chintz curtains? |
25919 | Yes, Padre?" |
25919 | Yes? |
25919 | Yes? |
25919 | Yesterday, was it? |
25919 | You and I are quite one, are n''t we, about that? |
25919 | You going, dear?" |
25919 | You or I?" |
25919 | You say I''m drunk, do you? |
25919 | You shopping, too, like Major Benjy and me? |
25919 | You will have talked to them all before Wednesday, will you not, dear?" |
25919 | You would n''t like to sit for me till she''s well again?" |
25919 | Your wound troubled you, hey? |
25919 | _ Bene!_ Now where is his house?" |
25919 | cards everywhere, and saying only( so Miss Mapp gathered from Withers)"Your mistress not in? |
25919 | did she say to herself? |
25919 | how was that?" |
25919 | how''s that?" |
25919 | she said;"and why is everyone standing about this afternoon?" |
16389 | A connection? |
16389 | A relation? |
16389 | A what? |
16389 | An advertisement? |
16389 | An agreeable quest,remarked Mr. Wilkins,"May I assist in the search? |
16389 | And family affection,said Lady Caroline-- or was it the Chianti speaking? |
16389 | And pray how do you know? |
16389 | And this week that has just passed? |
16389 | Are you going upstairs? |
16389 | Are you reading about the mediaeval castle and the wisteria? |
16389 | Ask her if she needs assistance? 16389 But did n''t he?" |
16389 | But if she ca n''t come to the club how can she go to Italy? |
16389 | But then there''s only room for one? |
16389 | But there are no men here,said Mrs. Wilkins,"so how can it be improper? |
16389 | But why should we not have her? 16389 But would n''t you prefer coming out and finding me well than coming out and finding me ill?" |
16389 | But,she said"are n''t we the ones who ought to ask for some from you?" |
16389 | But-- didn''t my mother tell you I was doing a rest- cure? |
16389 | But-- do you mean you and I? |
16389 | But-- do you think he''ll come? 16389 But-- how do you mean, get it?" |
16389 | Did I? |
16389 | Did n''t I tell you? |
16389 | Do n''t you ever see things in a kind of flash before they happen? |
16389 | Do n''t you think darling Scrap is growing a little, just a little, peculiar? |
16389 | Do n''t you think some tea would do you good? |
16389 | Do sit down, wo n''t you? 16389 Do you invite me to tea?" |
16389 | Do you know the Italian for it? |
16389 | Do you speak Italian? |
16389 | Do you,asked her conscience,"see any real difference between an incomplete impression and a completely stated lie? |
16389 | Do you? |
16389 | Do you? |
16389 | Do you? |
16389 | Does this good lady want something? |
16389 | Eh? 16389 Every Sunday-- I see you every Sunday in church--""In church?" |
16389 | Four? |
16389 | Get it? |
16389 | Has it? |
16389 | Have you come to compare me with my original? |
16389 | Have you? |
16389 | Here? |
16389 | I do let her,said her mother meekly; and indeed if she did not, what difference would it make? |
16389 | I do n''t owe you anything? |
16389 | I hope nothing has happened? |
16389 | I say,he asked,"ought n''t I to have a fourth hostess? |
16389 | I suppose you realize, do n''t you, that we''ve got to heaven? |
16389 | If you see me in church,she said, kindly and attentively,"I suppose you live in Hampstead too?" |
16389 | In February? |
16389 | Invite whom? |
16389 | Is it the old one? |
16389 | Is it? |
16389 | Is it? |
16389 | Is n''t he? |
16389 | Is n''t his cricket wonderful? |
16389 | Is n''t it divine? |
16389 | Is n''t this a delightful place? |
16389 | Is she ill? |
16389 | Is this one of your friends? |
16389 | It is Lady Caroline Dester, is it not, to whom I am speaking? |
16389 | Lady Caroline? |
16389 | Love? |
16389 | May I really dine with you? 16389 Mellersh? |
16389 | Miss Lumley,said Mr. Wilkins,"--or should I,"he inquired of Mrs. Fisher,"say Mrs.?" |
16389 | Money? |
16389 | Mother did that? |
16389 | Mother said that? |
16389 | My father often took me, but I always remember this week- end particularly--"Did you know Keats? |
16389 | My things? |
16389 | Nothing? 16389 Now what does she think she sees now?" |
16389 | Oh yes, we did-- didn''t we, Rose? |
16389 | Oh, are you? |
16389 | Oh, why wo n''t they leave me alone? |
16389 | Oh? |
16389 | Oh? |
16389 | Only one? |
16389 | Ought I to know? |
16389 | Ought n''t they to be fetched? |
16389 | Ought we to open it? |
16389 | Perhaps,continued Mrs. Fisher, addressing Lady Caroline,"you know her?" |
16389 | Please,said Scrap, still more earnestly,"wo n''t you clear your mind of everything except just truth? |
16389 | Portraits? |
16389 | Really am I to understand,she asked,"that you propose to reserve the one spare- room for the exclusive use of your own family?" |
16389 | Really what? |
16389 | Really? 16389 San Salvatore?" |
16389 | San Salvatore? |
16389 | Shall I go and seek the young lady? |
16389 | Shall you? |
16389 | She is a lady, I take it,said Mr. Wilkins,"who would be unlikely to have anything on her mind?" |
16389 | Take it? |
16389 | Tea? 16389 The Roses?" |
16389 | The terrible bills of this first week? 16389 The whole idea of our coming here,"she went on again, as Lotty did n''t seem to have noticed,"was to get away, was n''t it? |
16389 | Then I sha n''t see you again till dinner? |
16389 | Then had n''t we better find out first if she invites me too? |
16389 | Then shall we go? |
16389 | Then there are four of you? |
16389 | Then who are in all the others? |
16389 | Then why did you send a message that you were ill? |
16389 | Then why should she say she has? |
16389 | Then you were reading it? |
16389 | Well-- what is it? |
16389 | Were you ever, ever in your life so happy? |
16389 | What did you tell her? |
16389 | What does one do with people like this? |
16389 | What empty beds? |
16389 | What has Lady Caroline, if I may inquire, to do with the bills here? |
16389 | What is funny? |
16389 | What is his name? |
16389 | What is? |
16389 | What letter? |
16389 | What time would you like to have lunch? |
16389 | What was the Blessed Damozel? |
16389 | What-- everything? |
16389 | What-- this old rag? |
16389 | When did you start? |
16389 | When he comes? |
16389 | Where are the others? |
16389 | Where is your luggage? |
16389 | Where will you sit? |
16389 | Where? |
16389 | Which mistress? |
16389 | Which mistress? |
16389 | Which of the other two ladies is it? |
16389 | Which room do you sit in? 16389 Who is Thomas Briggs?" |
16389 | Who is the Signora Fisher? |
16389 | Who is your husband? |
16389 | Who is--? |
16389 | Who''s the man with the voice? |
16389 | Who-- me? |
16389 | Why are you laughing? |
16389 | Why do you ask me that? |
16389 | Why not say the Arbuthnots, my dear? |
16389 | Why should I love you? 16389 Why, is n''t one room enough for him?" |
16389 | Why, what has happened? |
16389 | Why? |
16389 | Why? |
16389 | Why? |
16389 | Wilkins? |
16389 | Will you have some more coffee? |
16389 | Will you have some more tea? |
16389 | Wo n''t she keep? |
16389 | Wo n''t this save trouble? |
16389 | Wo n''t you come and see me, or let me come to you sometimes? 16389 Would a cup of strong black coffee--?" |
16389 | Would n''t it be wonderful? |
16389 | Yes,"Your name? |
16389 | You mean about the advertisement and my savings being spent? 16389 You owe me?" |
16389 | You would n''t mind Mr. Briggs having it for one night? 16389 You''re not going to pretend San Salvatore is like me?" |
16389 | You? |
16389 | A man? |
16389 | A party which includes my wife? |
16389 | A shining world, or a world of rain? |
16389 | And Mr. Wilkins said, smiling at her,"Does one?" |
16389 | And if a husband was not a relation, who was? |
16389 | And it is heaven, is n''t it, Rose? |
16389 | And was n''t it entirely thanks to him that she had come across Lotty? |
16389 | And what was it she was saying? |
16389 | And what was she, thanks to this love Lotty talked so much about? |
16389 | And would n''t one say,"Look-- dearest?" |
16389 | Another husband? |
16389 | Arbuthnot?" |
16389 | Arbuthnot?" |
16389 | Are n''t you pleased you''ve got a wife with hair like curly honey?" |
16389 | Besides, if she did, if she sacrificed her whole past, her bringing up, her work for the last ten years, would she bore him less? |
16389 | Besides, who was the mistress here? |
16389 | Briggs?" |
16389 | But did Ruskin say it? |
16389 | But how could she rejoice alone? |
16389 | But how? |
16389 | But might not this very retiringness, this tendency to avoid the others and spend her time alone, indicate that she too was troubled? |
16389 | But once frightened away, could it ever come back? |
16389 | But suppose it was only a noise about nothing? |
16389 | But then what about the parish''s boots? |
16389 | But this? |
16389 | But what could one say, how could one describe it? |
16389 | But why had Briggs''s telegram acted on the lady like a blow? |
16389 | But why had she not? |
16389 | But wo n''t you have some more?" |
16389 | But would they? |
16389 | Ca n''t we have them taken away too?" |
16389 | Confide in Mrs. Wilkins? |
16389 | Could it be that San Salvatore was capable of opposite effects, and the same sun that ripened Mr. Wilkins made her go acid? |
16389 | Could n''t people leave one alone? |
16389 | Could one really attain goodness so violently? |
16389 | Could she be quite well? |
16389 | Did I tell you?" |
16389 | Did happiness so completely protect one? |
16389 | Did it make one so untouchable, so wise? |
16389 | Did n''t he like fish? |
16389 | Did she put the big crimson brocade cushion in the drawing- room behind her little dark head? |
16389 | Did she really do that? |
16389 | Did you not hear me?" |
16389 | Do you know what aspirin is in Italian?" |
16389 | Do you mind taking off your hat?" |
16389 | Do you not know she is the daughter of the Droitwiches?" |
16389 | Do you really mean that? |
16389 | Fate? |
16389 | For what else, pray? |
16389 | Francesca did not recognize the liquid flow as invective; how was she to, when it came out sounding like that? |
16389 | Frederick did love her then-- he must love her, or why had he come? |
16389 | Had n''t she seen in a flash quite soon after getting to San Salvatore that that was really what kept him away from her? |
16389 | Had she heard the gong? |
16389 | Had she never read her Bible, Mrs. Fisher was tempted to inquire-- And they two shall be one flesh? |
16389 | Had she seen the portrait of herself on the stairs? |
16389 | Happy? |
16389 | Have you a mother? |
16389 | Have you had all you want?" |
16389 | Have you noticed,"she inquired of Mrs. Fisher, who endeavoured to pretend she did not hear,"How difficult it is to be improper without men?" |
16389 | Have you?" |
16389 | Having successfully escaped them for four weeks why continue, and with persons having no earthly claim on one, to herd? |
16389 | Her holiday of peace and liberation was interrupted-- perhaps over, for who knew if he would go away, after all, to- morrow? |
16389 | How could anybody rejoice and enjoy and appreciate, really appreciate, alone? |
16389 | How could gentlemen keep away from so much beauty? |
16389 | How could one read if one were constantly trotting in and out? |
16389 | How could she invite him? |
16389 | How could she stand up and ask people for money when she herself was spending so much on her own selfish pleasure? |
16389 | How long would it be on it after Lady Caroline''s entrance? |
16389 | How long would they go on doing that once Lady Caroline was there? |
16389 | How many good dinners could not a man have eaten by the time he was forty? |
16389 | How should you?" |
16389 | How was it possible for him to bother about anybody or anything else in this first moment of being face to face with his dream come true? |
16389 | How was it possible for it to come at all? |
16389 | How was it that Lotty, who saw so many things, did n''t see stuck on her heart, and seeing keep quiet about it, the sore place that was Frederick? |
16389 | Husband going?" |
16389 | I hope they''ve been kind to you? |
16389 | If Mr. Wilkins could be changed, thought Rose, why not Frederick? |
16389 | If she did n''t know, if she were too tough to feel it, then what? |
16389 | If they could happen to Mr. Wilkins, why not to Frederick? |
16389 | In the warmth and light of what she was looking at, of what to her was a manifestation, and entirely new side of God, how could one be discomposed? |
16389 | In these travelling things?" |
16389 | In what category would she, supposing she had to, put her? |
16389 | Is n''t it fortunate?" |
16389 | It is n''t much to want, is it? |
16389 | It looks two ways-- I adore a room that looks two ways, do n''t you? |
16389 | It punctuated her entreaties for divine guidance with disconcerting questions, such as,"Are you not a hypocrite? |
16389 | It was all very well to have suddenly become a saint and want to love everybody, but need she be so tactless? |
16389 | May I pay my respects this afternoon? |
16389 | May n''t I come too? |
16389 | Mellersh a poor lamb? |
16389 | Mellersh at San Salvatore? |
16389 | Mellersh, from whom Lotty had taken such pains so recently to escape? |
16389 | Mrs. Fisher was very fond, too, she said, of flowers, and once when she was spending a week- end with her father at Box Hill--"Who lived at Box Hill?" |
16389 | Nasty day, is n''t it? |
16389 | Nothing further was to be expected of them; while of the living, what might one not still expect? |
16389 | Now it appeared that she did not know, for was this behaving, to come dressed-- no, undressed-- like that to a meal? |
16389 | Ought n''t it to be beaten again? |
16389 | Ought she perhaps to refuse to touch the money, to avoid it as she would have avoided the sins which were its source? |
16389 | Ought they to pay him? |
16389 | Peculiar? |
16389 | Presently she would n''t be beautiful, and what then? |
16389 | She had invited somebody to come and stay? |
16389 | She had no wish to intrude on the others; why then should they intrude on her? |
16389 | She leaned across the table,"Why do n''t we try and get it?" |
16389 | She seemed quick, but would she be quick about just this? |
16389 | She seemed to understand and see inside one, but would she understand and see inside one when it came to Mr. Wilkins? |
16389 | She was not afraid, she dared anything, but Mellersh was in such an admirable humour-- why risk clouding it just yet? |
16389 | Should she run? |
16389 | Soon she would be back with them again, and what would a camellia behind her ear seem like then? |
16389 | Suppose her prayer were to be answered? |
16389 | Suppose she had n''t been in it long enough for her to have become fixed in blandness? |
16389 | Surely it could n''t be Mrs. Fisher, wanting to sit with her? |
16389 | Surely it was they who were taking Mrs. Fisher into their party, and not Mrs. Fisher who was taking them into it? |
16389 | Surely she could n''t, she would n''t ever do such a thing? |
16389 | Surely she would n''t, she could n''t ever forget her poor, forget misery and sickness as completely as that? |
16389 | Surely you admit that it is beautiful?" |
16389 | That leaves two over, and the owner told us there were eight beds-- did n''t he Rose?" |
16389 | That same Mellersh who a few hours before was mere shimmer? |
16389 | That which she had just said, for instance, about men-- addressed too, to her-- what could she mean? |
16389 | The drawing- room, or the small yellow room?" |
16389 | This resurrection of Frederick, or rather this attempt to resurrect him, what was it but the result of having nothing whatever to do? |
16389 | To whom was he talking? |
16389 | Was her health quite normal? |
16389 | Was her nature changing? |
16389 | Was it a game? |
16389 | Was it morning spirits impelling him to address Mrs. Fisher in the terms of a nursery rhyme? |
16389 | Was it possible Mrs. Wilkins liked her-- had liked her all this time, while she had been so much disliking her herself? |
16389 | Was it possible that loneliness had nothing to do with circumstances, but only with the way one met them? |
16389 | Was it the failing light making her so colourless, so vague- featured, so dim, so much like a ghost? |
16389 | Was not Lotty right when she said the other day that nothing at all except love mattered? |
16389 | Was she an ordinary, everyday, sensible woman? |
16389 | Was she going to be ill? |
16389 | Was she going to have to go on ordering the food? |
16389 | Was she really going to live in this for a whole month? |
16389 | Was she shy? |
16389 | Was she to be not only thrown back on long- stifled yearnings after Frederick, but also turned into somebody who wanted to fight over little things? |
16389 | Was she to deflect it from its intended destination, which alone had appeared to justify her keeping it, and spend it on giving herself pleasure? |
16389 | Was she, too, picturing what it would be like-- the colour, the fragrance, the light, the soft lapping of the sea among little hot rocks? |
16389 | Was tea being sent out to her? |
16389 | Was that really what her nest- egg was to be spent on after all? |
16389 | Was there to be no end to them? |
16389 | Was this a habit, this trick of answering a simple question with the same question? |
16389 | Were they the same goldfish? |
16389 | What about them?" |
16389 | What could have put it, at such a moment, into his self- possessed head? |
16389 | What could one do with men when one had got them? |
16389 | What could they possibly find to laugh at? |
16389 | What could they talk about? |
16389 | What did it matter? |
16389 | What did it matter? |
16389 | What did she want with Kate? |
16389 | What did she want with holidays? |
16389 | What did you expect? |
16389 | What had become of her? |
16389 | What had come over her? |
16389 | What had the future in it for her? |
16389 | What on earth had made her? |
16389 | What sort of a face did Lloyd George make? |
16389 | What was that? |
16389 | What was the matter with Briggs? |
16389 | What was the matter with Briggs? |
16389 | What was the matter with Briggs? |
16389 | What was this? |
16389 | What was to be done about it? |
16389 | What was to be done with Mr. Briggs? |
16389 | What was to be done with Mr. Briggs? |
16389 | What would each think? |
16389 | What would she see out of her window? |
16389 | What? |
16389 | Whatever does it matter?" |
16389 | When did you see her last? |
16389 | When they got to the dining- room Mrs. Fisher went to the head of the table-- was this Mrs. Fisher''s house? |
16389 | When would she leave off making mistakes about them? |
16389 | Where else abroad could she live as well for so little, and have as many baths as she like, for eight shillings a day? |
16389 | Where had it come from? |
16389 | Where was she? |
16389 | While as for the towel-- why had he come? |
16389 | Who could be acquisitive, selfish, in the old rasped London way, in the presence of this bounteous beauty? |
16389 | Who could be angry in the middle of such gentlenesses? |
16389 | Who is it?" |
16389 | Who was there now to put beside him? |
16389 | Who was there to mention in the same breath? |
16389 | Why could she not say"My husband"? |
16389 | Why did her eyes rake him persistently? |
16389 | Why did she do it? |
16389 | Why had he not stayed in Hampstead? |
16389 | Why had n''t that woman Kate Lumley arrived yet? |
16389 | Why had she let go the anchor of prayer? |
16389 | Why had she not been attractive sooner? |
16389 | Why herd? |
16389 | Why on earth-- the energetic expression matched her mood of rebelliousness-- shouldn''t she too be loved and allowed to love? |
16389 | Why should I not sit quietly and undisturbed, as I told you in London I intended to? |
16389 | Why should I?" |
16389 | Why should he come? |
16389 | Why should n''t she too be happy? |
16389 | Why should not this one spot be kept exclusively for her? |
16389 | Why should she be extraordinarily pleased to see him? |
16389 | Why should she go in to lunch if she did n''t want to? |
16389 | Why should she tell him beforehand? |
16389 | Why should such a telegram make the interesting lady turn pale? |
16389 | Why should you be humble? |
16389 | Why this sudden flowering? |
16389 | Why this talk? |
16389 | Wilkins?" |
16389 | Wilkins?" |
16389 | Will you?" |
16389 | Would it not be a little-- a little delicate to touch on such a question, the question whether or no a lady has something on her mind?" |
16389 | Would n''t there be an equally violent reaction? |
16389 | Would she be able in the morning to be full towards him, as she was at that moment full, of nothing at all but loving- kindness? |
16389 | Would she know she was being curbed? |
16389 | Would she never get away from being waited on, being made comfortable, being asked where she wanted things put, having to say thank you? |
16389 | Would there be that sense of freedom, that peace, after a night shut up with Mellersh? |
16389 | Would you advise it? |
16389 | Would you like an orange?" |
16389 | Would you not, frankly, be disappointed if that prayer were granted?" |
16389 | Would you?" |
16389 | Ye ca n''t hear anything of the blasted, blethering, doddering, glaikit fool- stuff yer maister talks, can ye?" |
16389 | Yet not wonderful, for was n''t he in heaven? |
16389 | Yet-- if Mr. Wilkins had telegraphed, why not Frederick? |
16389 | You and Mrs. Fisher have n''t got husbands, but why not give some friend a glorious time?" |
16389 | Your mother would wish-- have you a mother?" |
16389 | and immediately afterwards,"Can I have a hot bath?" |
16389 | no, it was too terrible, what could be more terrible? |
16389 | they both repeated incredulously, for where were the suit- cases, and why had they been forced to get out of the fly? |
16389 | what chance was there for poor Briggs? |
4687 | ''S''at so? |
4687 | ''S''at so? |
4687 | A nurse? |
4687 | A strike is pretty hard, when you have these to think of, is n''t it? |
4687 | A writer? |
4687 | All? 4687 And Billy, is he the one they talk to, the Carpenters I mean-- the authorities?" |
4687 | And Ma yells up,''What are you two layin''awake about?'' |
4687 | And Mary Peacock-- did you know her? 4687 And a little bit mad in spots?" |
4687 | And are Mr. Oliver''s-- are the men out? |
4687 | And he-- he cares, does he? |
4687 | And how''s Alfie doing? |
4687 | And how''s that? |
4687 | And if we were engaged it would be all right, is that it? |
4687 | And it''s all right? 4687 And just what has a strike like this to do with that, Billy?" |
4687 | And no''Halma''? |
4687 | And now, children,said the writer, when at last they were in the empty, chilly darkness of the street,"where can I get you a carriage? |
4687 | And now, why do n''t you go to bed, Jinny darling? |
4687 | And pwhats dthat, me dar- r- rlin''? |
4687 | And the day we marked up the steps with chalk and Auntie sent us out with wet rags? |
4687 | And to whom is this book going to be dedicated? |
4687 | And were you married then? |
4687 | And what about Jo? |
4687 | And what about the chiffon? |
4687 | And what about you, Sue? |
4687 | And what are your own plans, Sue? |
4687 | And what are your own plans, Sue? |
4687 | And what are your plans for to- morrow, girls? |
4687 | And what does Mr. Oliver say? |
4687 | And what does Verriker say of your eyes, Jinny? |
4687 | And what''s the significance of all that? |
4687 | And when do you think, children? |
4687 | And will she be cured? |
4687 | And will you really let it stay that way? |
4687 | And you will let me think it over? |
4687 | And you-- are you still crazy about that mutt? |
4687 | And-- and is there much suffering yet? |
4687 | Any plan for to- day, Sue? |
4687 | Anything I can do, Mary Lou? |
4687 | Anything new? |
4687 | Are n''t these cunnin'', Lou? |
4687 | Are n''t we all born pretty much as we''re going to be? 4687 Are n''t you coming, Em?" |
4687 | Are n''t you going over for the tennis? |
4687 | Are the Saunders here? |
4687 | Are we all actors? 4687 Are we all ready?" |
4687 | Are we going to have lunch to- day? |
4687 | Are you dated for to- morrow night? |
4687 | Are you going as far as Japan, my dear? |
4687 | Are you going to be open at all to- morrow? |
4687 | Are you so happy, Bill? |
4687 | Are you so sure that you have n''t a vocation, Georgie? |
4687 | Are you sure you''ve read every word on that page, Bill,--every little word? |
4687 | Are you taking something for it? |
4687 | Are you trying to throw me down? 4687 Aunt Josephine,"Susan said, really shaken out of her nonsense by the serious tone,"do you honestly think it''s a drawback? |
4687 | Beg pardon? 4687 Beg pardon?" |
4687 | Bill, do n''t you honestly think that they''re smarter than other children, or is it just because they''re mine? |
4687 | Billy, do you love me? |
4687 | Billy, how could I? 4687 Billy, why are n''t you asleep?" |
4687 | Billy,said Susan, taking his arm and walking him along very rapidly,"I''m going away--""Going away?" |
4687 | But Billy has a little preliminary conference in his room first? |
4687 | But I''m with Georgie now,--unless,she added prettily,"you''ll let me stay here for a day or two?" |
4687 | But Ma-- Ma and I-- and Sue, too, do n''t you, Sue? |
4687 | But WHY am I different? |
4687 | But are n''t there some exceptions? |
4687 | But better than all,Mary Lou announced,"that great German muscle doctor has been twice to see Mary,--isn''t that amazing? |
4687 | But do n''t you wish we did n''t? |
4687 | But do you love me? |
4687 | But have n''t you noticed how Ella tries to get you away from me? 4687 But honestly, Sue, do n''t you get mad when you think that about the only standard of the world is money?" |
4687 | But how can it be annulled, Mary Lou? |
4687 | But how did you get it? |
4687 | But how did you get it? |
4687 | But if the rich man was just as good and brave and honest and true as the poor one? |
4687 | But in the fall---she made a bold appeal to his interest,"--in the fall I think I shall go to New York?" |
4687 | But is he here? |
4687 | But suppose you''re one of those persons who get into a groove, and simply ca n''t live? 4687 But vurry, vurry de- ah,"supplemented Peter,"are n''t we?" |
4687 | But we never said nothing, did we, Gert? 4687 But what''s the difference?" |
4687 | But why wo n''t you and Miss Lord run up to see Chrissy for a few moments, Miss Brown? 4687 But why? |
4687 | But why? |
4687 | But you do n''t think that the poor, as a class, are happier than the rich? |
4687 | But you hate to go, do n''t you? |
4687 | But you will be when he asks you? |
4687 | But you would n''t marry just for that, dear? 4687 But you, you villain-- where''ve you been?" |
4687 | But, Aunt Jo, what does she pay? |
4687 | But, Auntie, are n''t they going to be divorced? |
4687 | But, Bill, how do we know we can manage it financially? |
4687 | But, Bill,said Susan to- night,"would n''t you like to order once without reading the price first and then looking back to see what it was? |
4687 | But, Billy, does n''t that seem terrible? 4687 But, Peter, is there really something in it?" |
4687 | But, Stephen-- what about tickets? |
4687 | But, Sue, shall you be content to have Billy slave as he is slaving now,she presently went on,"right on into middle- age?" |
4687 | But, Thorny,she presently submitted,"is n''t Peter Coleman in college?" |
4687 | But, darling, you honestly are n''t afraid? 4687 But, of course, if Mamma takes Baby abroad in the spring,--you see how it is? |
4687 | But,--good heavens, what happened? |
4687 | But-- can''t you see? 4687 But-- it might n''t be so-- with a rich man?" |
4687 | Ca n''t we have dinner together this evening, Sue? 4687 Can a nice girl DO that?" |
4687 | Can you HEAR me? 4687 Can you beat it?" |
4687 | Conceited? 4687 Could n''t he be cured, Miss Baker?" |
4687 | Could n''t? 4687 D''ye know what the old man is going to do now? |
4687 | D- d- did we? |
4687 | Did Ken say anything to you? |
4687 | Did YOU know that? |
4687 | Did he call? 4687 Did he call?" |
4687 | Did he send you a Christmas present? |
4687 | Did n''t I? 4687 Did n''t Peter send it to you?" |
4687 | Did n''t you like him? |
4687 | Did n''t you nearly DIE, Ma? |
4687 | Did n''t, hey? |
4687 | Did she-- did she seem to think it was odd, Betts? |
4687 | Did you know I was asked to the Juniors this year? |
4687 | Did you notice that Peyton Hamilton leaned over and said something to me very quickly, in a low voice, this morning? |
4687 | Did-- did Miss Thornton get home all right? |
4687 | Do I know him? |
4687 | Do I look like a person about to go to a Browning Cotillion, or to take a dip in the Pacific? |
4687 | Do I not know them myself? |
4687 | Do n''t let me interrupt you, but is Susan here? |
4687 | Do n''t that look like twenty cents? |
4687 | Do n''t the house seem still? 4687 Do n''t you LOVE it?" |
4687 | Do n''t you find her very dear and simple? |
4687 | Do n''t you know that a man has no respect for a girl who does n''t keep him a little at a distance, dear? |
4687 | Do n''t you like him? |
4687 | Do n''t you love it when we stop people on the crossings? |
4687 | Do n''t you love it? 4687 Do n''t you suppose I''d much RATHER not work?" |
4687 | Do n''t you want to take your hat off, Sue? |
4687 | Do n''t you? |
4687 | Do ye feel like ye could eat a little mite, Pa? |
4687 | Do you SUPPOSE so? |
4687 | Do you care a little, Susan? |
4687 | Do you know Pompilia? 4687 Do you know how to stuff them, Anna?" |
4687 | Do you know where Mrs. Fox went to? |
4687 | Do you like that, son? 4687 Do you love me, Billy?" |
4687 | Do you mean that she wo n''t let him bring Georgie there? |
4687 | Do you mean that you do n''t think he ever meant to get a divorce? |
4687 | Do you mean that you''ve been facing this for a month? 4687 Do you mean they-- FIRED you?" |
4687 | Do you mind my asking, Sue? |
4687 | Do you really think you''ll be rich some day, Billy? |
4687 | Do you really want me to take the boys away for a few days? |
4687 | Do you remember Miss Fish,--the old girl whose canary we hit with a ball? 4687 Do you think we will ever reach our ideals, Aunt Jo, as she has hers?" |
4687 | Do you think you can deceive me about it? |
4687 | Do you wonder people go crazy to get hold of money? |
4687 | Do you, Willie darling? |
4687 | Does anybody change? |
4687 | Does n''t he? |
4687 | Does n''t it seem FUNNY to you that we''re right in the middle of a strike, Bill? |
4687 | Does n''t it seem a shame? |
4687 | Does n''t that seem horrible? 4687 Does n''t the darling look comfortable and countryish, Bill?" |
4687 | Does n''t this kitchen look awful? |
4687 | Does this new thing worry you? |
4687 | Eleanor Harkness? 4687 Emily home?" |
4687 | Engaged? |
4687 | Everything else being equal, Sue,she pursued,"would n''t you rather be rich?" |
4687 | Excuse me,said Susan,"but do you know where Mr. William Oliver lives, now?" |
4687 | Fall? |
4687 | Feeling better? |
4687 | Friends? |
4687 | Gee, why not? |
4687 | Get busy at what? |
4687 | Get the butter, Mary Lou? |
4687 | Girls gone? |
4687 | Give her? 4687 Gosh, you''re crazy about it, are n''t you?" |
4687 | Green tea, dear? 4687 Had you a nurse in mind?" |
4687 | Had your breakfast? |
4687 | Has she been in bed? |
4687 | Has who come? |
4687 | Hat come? |
4687 | Have you any fault to find with Auntie''s provision for you, dear? |
4687 | He might do more good that way than in any other,mourned Anna rebelliously,"and my goodness, Sue, is n''t his first duty to you and the children?" |
4687 | He really has ever so much better brains than I have, do n''t you know? |
4687 | He said a man named Edward Harris---"Sure it was n''t Frank Harris? |
4687 | He-- WON''T? |
4687 | He-- but he-- he makes love to you, does n''t he? |
4687 | He-- he was glad, was n''t he? 4687 Headache?" |
4687 | Hello, Dan, hello, Gene; how are ye, Jim? |
4687 | Hello, Sue, that your oldest? 4687 Heroic? |
4687 | How about a fool trip to the Chutes to- morrow night? |
4687 | How about it, Sue? |
4687 | How about it, Sue? |
4687 | How are all of them? |
4687 | How are we better? |
4687 | How do I get to the library? |
4687 | How do you do, Miss Brown? |
4687 | How do you do, Peter? |
4687 | How do you do, how do you do? |
4687 | How do you mean that it''s not easy? 4687 How do you mean?" |
4687 | How goes it to- day? |
4687 | How late did you walk, Bill? |
4687 | How long are you going to call me that? |
4687 | How long are you going to wait? |
4687 | How much are these? 4687 How much money do you want?" |
4687 | How much? |
4687 | How should I take it? |
4687 | How''s it going, Jarge? |
4687 | How''s she? |
4687 | How-- why should that be so good? |
4687 | However, the next morning we rushed over to the Cudahys-- you remember that magnificent old person you and Conrad met here? 4687 Huh?" |
4687 | I adore you, Sue-- isn''t this fun? |
4687 | I beg pardon? 4687 I beg your pardon--?" |
4687 | I do n''t? 4687 I may not do that--""You may n''t? |
4687 | I said-- but where are you going? |
4687 | I think Fillmore Street''s as gay as Kearney, do n''t you, Mary Lou? 4687 I thought one day we said that when I was forty- five and you were forty- one we were going to get married?" |
4687 | I want this one-- I want these, please,--will you give me this one? |
4687 | I will the minute I get another,said Susan, morosely, adding anxiously,"Do I look a perfect fright, Thorny? |
4687 | I wonder if Ma would miss us if we took the car out to the end of the line? 4687 I wonder if, when we get to another world, EVERYTHING we do here will seem just ridiculous and funny?" |
4687 | I''ll bet he gets a good salary? |
4687 | I''ll get right into my things, a breath of air will do us both good, wo n''t it, Sue? |
4687 | I''m going to have this, are n''t I, Miss Brown? 4687 I''m not a monkey, and_ I_ do n''t think I''m a madcap? |
4687 | I-- get out? |
4687 | I? 4687 I? |
4687 | I? 4687 I?" |
4687 | I? |
4687 | If one of those girls came to us a stranger,Susan declared, with a heaving breast,"do you suppose we''d treat her like that?" |
4687 | If you do n''t care, why are you talking about it? |
4687 | Is either of you ladies sailing? |
4687 | Is n''t it damned interesting? |
4687 | Is n''t it gorgeous, girls? 4687 Is n''t it? |
4687 | Is n''t she sweet? |
4687 | Is n''t she wise? |
4687 | Is n''t this fun? |
4687 | Is n''t this little one with a baby''s face sweet? |
4687 | Is n''t this thrilling, Sue? |
4687 | Is that all? |
4687 | Is that so? |
4687 | Is that the boys coming back? |
4687 | Isabel? |
4687 | It does n''t sound like me now, does it? 4687 It would be the very quietest and quickest and simplest wedding that ever was, would n''t it?" |
4687 | It''s about the office, is n''t it? |
4687 | Just put your head in the door and say,''Mother, how do you stuff a turkey?'' |
4687 | Kate Richardson simply has n''t come, and if you''ll fill in until she does----You say hearts? |
4687 | Listen,said Miss Thornton, in a low tone,"I met George Banks on the deck this afternoon, see? |
4687 | Lizzie, who was it? |
4687 | Look here, who you pushing? |
4687 | Look there, Bill, what are those people getting? |
4687 | Lord, are n''t you working now? |
4687 | Lord, did n''t you hate French? |
4687 | Lord, where do all these widows come from? |
4687 | Love- letter, Sue? |
4687 | Mad at me, Thorny? |
4687 | Mama, did you ask that woman here to play cards? |
4687 | Married? |
4687 | Marry you? |
4687 | Me? |
4687 | Miss Brown, did you see this bill Mr. Brauer speaks of? |
4687 | Miss Cashell, did you? |
4687 | Miss Saunders? |
4687 | My fault? |
4687 | My little girl,he said, gravely,"did you think that I was going to leave you behind?" |
4687 | My very dear little girl, what IS it? |
4687 | New York? |
4687 | Next waltz-- one after that, then? |
4687 | No, but who have you got a date with? |
4687 | No, does it? 4687 No,"he said,"whatever comes of it, or however we suffer for it, I love you, and you love me, do n''t you, Susan?" |
4687 | No; but is it really and truly serious this time, Bill? |
4687 | Nobody else knows? |
4687 | Noisy, are n''t we, Sue? |
4687 | Not a quarrel with Peter? |
4687 | Not between you and Billy? |
4687 | Not dying? 4687 Now I was talking to Mrs. Carroll Sunday--""Oh, how are the Carrolls?" |
4687 | Now you mark my words, Susan, it wo n''t last-- things like this don''t--"But-- but do n''t they sometimes last, for years? |
4687 | Now, Bill, why do you worry---? |
4687 | Of course she''s better-- You''re all right, are n''t you? |
4687 | Of me? |
4687 | Oh, Billy,Susan''s eyes widened childishly,"do n''t you honestly think so?" |
4687 | Oh, Sue-- right down at the end of Fifth Avenue-- but you do n''t know where that is, do you? 4687 Oh, Susan?" |
4687 | Oh, and how''s Anna? |
4687 | Oh, are we going to be married? |
4687 | Oh, have you a ranch? |
4687 | Oh, honestly? |
4687 | Oh, what''s your hurry? |
4687 | Oh, why must you go, Sue? |
4687 | Oh, will you? |
4687 | Oh---? |
4687 | Oh? 4687 Oh?" |
4687 | On the Nippon Maru? |
4687 | Or''Has the governess of the gardener some meat and a pen''? |
4687 | Ought he marry? |
4687 | Ought n''t this be firm? |
4687 | Oysters? |
4687 | Pauline, put these back, will you, please? |
4687 | Perhaps tea will help it? |
4687 | Perhaps you''ve promised the next? |
4687 | Peter Coleman, is n''t it? |
4687 | Peter Coleman? |
4687 | Peter is in Santa Barbara, is n''t he? |
4687 | Peter, could n''t you dine with us, at Auntie''s, I mean? |
4687 | Peter? 4687 Planked steak,"Susan hunted for it,"would it be three dollars?" |
4687 | Positorily not? 4687 Quite a French sentence,''does the uncle know the aunt''?" |
4687 | Radiate happiness? |
4687 | Remember Stephen Bocqueraz that Brownie introduced to you just before supper? |
4687 | S''listen, Susan,said Miss Thornton, leaning on the desk,"are you going to the big game?" |
4687 | Say, Sue, ought n''t those blankets be out here, airing? |
4687 | Say, did you ever know that he made a pretty good thing out of Mrs. Carroll''s window washer? |
4687 | Say, let''s go over to the hotel and have a dance, what? |
4687 | Say, listen, Susan, can you come over to the Carrolls, Sunday? 4687 Say, look here, look here-- didn''t my uncle introduce us once, on a car, or something? |
4687 | Say, what''s that song about''I''d leave my happy home for you,''Bert? |
4687 | See here, Miss Brown,she called out, after a few moments, noticing Susan,"do n''t you want to come for a little spin with me?" |
4687 | See, now,said Madame Vera in a low tone, as she followed Susan to the door,"You do not come into my workshop, eh?" |
4687 | Serious? 4687 Shall I ask Santa Claus to send it?" |
4687 | Shall I get that? |
4687 | Shall you go to Nevada City with the Eastmans, Sue? |
4687 | Shall you stay here until Sunday, or would you rather be with your own people? |
4687 | She fainted away!--Didn''t you hear her fall?--I did n''t hear a thing!--Well, you fainted, did n''t you?--You felt faint, did n''t you? |
4687 | She says these are five, Lizzie; do you like them better than the little holly books? |
4687 | She''s quite wonderful, is n''t she? |
4687 | Sister, is it? |
4687 | So he goes away to Japan, does he? 4687 So you''re not going out with me any more?" |
4687 | Somebody coming to see you, dear? |
4687 | Stephen ca n''t shake his wife, I suppose? |
4687 | Still sleepy? |
4687 | Still, you could rent that house? |
4687 | Sue him? 4687 Sue, are n''t we going to have fun-- doing things like this all our lives?" |
4687 | Sue, dear,said the mother,"are you going to be warm enough up in the forest? |
4687 | Sue, do n''t you think it would be fun to try some of me in my Mandarin coat? 4687 Sue,--you wo n''t be angry?" |
4687 | Sunday too soon? 4687 Sure, but why do n''t you do''em yourself, Susan, and save your two bits?" |
4687 | Surely you have n''t equivocated about it, Susan? |
4687 | Surely, you''re going to open your presents to- night, Nance? |
4687 | Susan, when I was looking straight up into Mrs. Carter''s face,--you know the way I always do!--she laughed at me, and said I was a madcap monkey? 4687 Susan, you little turkey- buzzard--"It was the old Peter!--"where''ve you been all evening? |
4687 | Susan,he said, coming back, after a moment,"have I ever done anything to warrant-- to make you distrust me?" |
4687 | Susan,he said, very quietly,"you are my girl-- you are MY girl, will you let me take care of you? |
4687 | Susan? 4687 Susan?" |
4687 | Tell everyone that I''m lying down with a terrible headache, wo n''t you? |
4687 | That other fellow, eh? |
4687 | That you, Susan? 4687 That''ll suit you, Wil''lum, I dunno?" |
4687 | That''s so, he was coming down to- day, was n''t he? |
4687 | That''s so-- I was crazy about her once, was n''t I? |
4687 | Then hustle and unpack the eats, will you? 4687 Then you can see how it would cut a fellow all up to leave them?" |
4687 | There was a crash? |
4687 | Tired, dear? |
4687 | To whom? |
4687 | Too tired to go to church with Mary Lou and me, dear? |
4687 | Twenty cents for WHAT? |
4687 | Two in a cup, Martini,Emily would say, settling into her seat, and the waiter would look deferentially at Susan,"The same, madam?" |
4687 | WHAT''S none of his business? |
4687 | WON''T? |
4687 | Want some chocolates? |
4687 | Want to go to a bum show at the''Central''to- night? |
4687 | Was she going to wear it? |
4687 | Was that the day I broke the pitchers, Ma? |
4687 | Was there ever such a heavenly place, Billy? |
4687 | We could send that? |
4687 | We were-- How do you do? 4687 We''ll trim up the house like always, wo n''t we, Betts?" |
4687 | We''ve only been fooling, have n''t we? |
4687 | Well, Evangeline, how''s Sat.? 4687 Well, Susan, light of my old eyes, had enough of the rotten rich?" |
4687 | Well, WOULDN''T you? |
4687 | Well, are n''t they all darlings? |
4687 | Well, are n''t we? |
4687 | Well, but what then, Sue? |
4687 | Well, do n''t you think you are? |
4687 | Well, had you ordered a pillow of violets with shaky doves? |
4687 | Well, is n''t it? |
4687 | Well, let me see-- I''ve been thinking of you lately, Sue, and wondering why you never thought of settlement work? 4687 Well, suppose we go off and have dinner somewhere, to- morrow?" |
4687 | Well, then, are we to let people know that in twenty years we intend to be married? |
4687 | Well, then, shall I get tickets for Monday night? |
4687 | Well, then, why do they live here? |
4687 | Well, what did you have to SEE her for, Mama? |
4687 | Well, what do you care? |
4687 | Well, what do you think of the Ironworks Row? |
4687 | Well, what do you think? |
4687 | Well, what do you want me to do? 4687 Well, why do n''t you come?" |
4687 | Well, why do you make such a fuss about it? |
4687 | Well, will you girls call me? 4687 Well,"he laughed,"do n''t be so polite about it!--I''ll see you to- morrow?" |
4687 | Well-- well, did he make more than THAT? |
4687 | Well--Susan turned suddenly to Betsey,"Why do n''t you trot up and ask, Betts?" |
4687 | Well--? |
4687 | Well; at one? 4687 What IS it?" |
4687 | What WOULDN''T you give to be going? 4687 What YOU''D do?" |
4687 | What about that thing with the Persian embroidery? 4687 What are you afraid of, little girl?" |
4687 | What car are you making for? |
4687 | What d''ye mean by rotten? |
4687 | What did I come here for? |
4687 | What did you say, William dear? |
4687 | What did you say? |
4687 | What do YOU think? |
4687 | What do they concede, Bill? |
4687 | What do you care if she does? |
4687 | What do you do, just watch''em? |
4687 | What do you mean? 4687 What do you pay?" |
4687 | What do you think of sponging her face off with ice- water? |
4687 | What do you think, my own girl? |
4687 | What do you think? |
4687 | What does Anna say? |
4687 | What does she know about it? |
4687 | What else did he say? |
4687 | What first, Sue? |
4687 | What for? |
4687 | What for? |
4687 | What happened? |
4687 | What have you been doing now? |
4687 | What is it, Susan? |
4687 | What is it, dear? |
4687 | What is it- what is it? |
4687 | What is it? |
4687 | What is it? |
4687 | What is it? |
4687 | What looks odd? |
4687 | What makes my girl suddenly look so sober? |
4687 | What more can I do? 4687 What new thing?" |
4687 | What shall I do, Sue? |
4687 | What sort of a gown did you want, dear? |
4687 | What the DEUCE are you raving about? |
4687 | What was your rush yesterday? |
4687 | What was? |
4687 | What were you going to wear? |
4687 | What would it cost us, Thorny? |
4687 | What would you order if you could, Bill? |
4687 | What''s all the news, Sue? 4687 What''s he doing that for?" |
4687 | What''s that? |
4687 | What''s the conference about? |
4687 | What''s the matter with our-- our getting married, Susan? 4687 What''s the matter-- very sick?" |
4687 | What''s the matter? |
4687 | What''s the matter? |
4687 | What? |
4687 | What? |
4687 | What? |
4687 | When are you boys going to Mill Valley for greens? |
4687 | When are you going to come and spend a week with me? |
4687 | When has Philip ever been such an unmitigated comfort, or Betts so thoughtful and good? |
4687 | When you came here it was just an experiment, was n''t it? |
4687 | When''d they come? |
4687 | Where shall we walk? 4687 Where''s everybody?" |
4687 | Where''s your livery stable? |
4687 | Where''ve YOU been? |
4687 | Where''ve you been all this time? 4687 Where''ve you been?" |
4687 | While--? |
4687 | Who is it, dear? |
4687 | Who said so? |
4687 | Who was it, Mary Lou? |
4687 | Who''s Georgie talking to? |
4687 | Who''s she? |
4687 | Who''s that? |
4687 | Who''s that? |
4687 | Who? 4687 Who?" |
4687 | Why a special delivery-- and why here-- and what is it? |
4687 | Why could n''t I? |
4687 | Why did n''t you walk through Front Office? |
4687 | Why do n''t you forbid Joe O''Connor the house, Auntie? |
4687 | Why do n''t you talk to me? |
4687 | Why not take a magazine agency, then? 4687 Why not?" |
4687 | Why should I be? |
4687 | Why should she? |
4687 | Why should you? |
4687 | Why would n''t it be true? |
4687 | Why would n''t they? 4687 Why, Lord; why does n''t Ella count you in on these things?" |
4687 | Why, how do I know? |
4687 | Why, what is it? |
4687 | Why, what''s the matter? |
4687 | Why? |
4687 | Will she sue him, Thorny? |
4687 | Will they get it? |
4687 | Will you come across the hall into the little library with me and talk about it for two minutes? |
4687 | Will you hurry this bill, Miss Brown? |
4687 | Will you say that I am here, Hughes? |
4687 | With the others? |
4687 | Wo n''t you sit down? 4687 Wo n''t you tell me about it?" |
4687 | Wonderful sight, is n''t it? |
4687 | Would I have come straight to you, if I had agreed? |
4687 | Would a nice girl DO that? 4687 Would n''t you honestly like another piece of plum pie, Sue?" |
4687 | Would you advise it, Aunt Jo? |
4687 | Would you care, if it did? |
4687 | Would you? |
4687 | YOU''D rather be up here just quietly with me, would n''t you, Sue? |
4687 | Yes, I noticed those, did you see these, darling? |
4687 | You believe in the law of compensation, do n''t you, Aunt Jo? |
4687 | You ca n''t do it, and you''re afraid to say so, is that it? |
4687 | You ca n''t hurt that dress, can you, Sue? |
4687 | You could n''t come, anyway, I suppose? |
4687 | You do n''t know what to do? |
4687 | You do n''t like Con? 4687 You do n''t suppose God would take her away from me, Sue, because of that nonsense about wanting a boy?" |
4687 | You gave me a little cologne bottle filled with water, and one of those spools that one braids worsted through, do you remember? |
4687 | You have n''t wasted your good money on a ticket yet, I hope, dear? |
4687 | You know that it means going away with me, little girl? |
4687 | You know that mustard- colored linen with the black embroidery that Dolly''s worn once or twice, do n''t you? |
4687 | You mean,said Susan, scarlet- cheeked,"that-- that just my going with you will be sufficient cause?" |
4687 | You said''no''? |
4687 | You see that? 4687 You wo n''t? |
4687 | You''d like that, would n''t you? |
4687 | You''re dated three- deep for Thursday night, I presume? |
4687 | You''re dead, are n''t you? |
4687 | You''re young, are n''t you? 4687 Your lead, Miss Brown---""Mine? |
4687 | Your mother''s ill? |
4687 | ''Is it a sin to whistle?'' |
4687 | ''Watts?'' |
4687 | ''Why do n''t you?'' |
4687 | ''Will you tell me,''he says,''why I have to put my wife into rooms like these?'' |
4687 | ---But you do n''t mean that you want ME?" |
4687 | ---Is it going to be too cold out here for you, Sue?" |
4687 | A child of seven?" |
4687 | A four- spot? |
4687 | After all, why should she not call? |
4687 | After we''re married?" |
4687 | And Clem of course tore our little dream to rags---""Oh, HOW?" |
4687 | And Mary Lou,--did you know that they had a little girl? |
4687 | And Susan heard a jovial echo of"Can a nice girl DO that?" |
4687 | And after that---? |
4687 | And has n''t he an awful old mother, or someone, who said that she''d never let him come home again if he married?" |
4687 | And how would the thing SOUND-- a railroad magnate owning the''Protest''?" |
4687 | And just before lunch Ma came up, and-- she looked chalk- white, did n''t she, Jinny?" |
4687 | And somebody added thoughtfully,"Can a nice girl DO that?" |
4687 | And the child-- what could she teach a child of its mother? |
4687 | And the second- hand type- writer we were always saving up for?" |
4687 | And then he says,''Yes, I knew that,''he says,''but do you know who''s going to take her place?'' |
4687 | And to come home to that dreadful WOMAN, his mother? |
4687 | And what do they say now of Jinny? |
4687 | And what was she to do now, to- morrow and the next day and the next? |
4687 | And what will theirs, in time?--Peel these, will you?" |
4687 | And what would you like best to do, Sue?" |
4687 | And what''s that?" |
4687 | And what''s this I hear of your throwing down Phil completely, and setting up a new young man?" |
4687 | And when, in November, Peter stopped her on the"deck"one day to ask her,"How about Sunday, Sue? |
4687 | And who do you suppose it was?" |
4687 | And who knows? |
4687 | And who''s home?" |
4687 | And you''ll be here in the morning as usual, Miss Lord? |
4687 | And you''re good- looking, are n''t you?" |
4687 | And, Sue, did you know, the second gong has been rung? |
4687 | And, Sue, will you wait, like a love, and see that we get something to eat at twelve-- at one? |
4687 | And, as if the thought of Josephine had suggested it, she added to Philip in a low tone:"Listen, Phil, are we going to sing to- night?" |
4687 | And, beginning thus, what would he feel after a few years of poverty, dark rooms and unpaid bills? |
4687 | Anyway, it seemed a good chance to give them a lift, do n''t you know?" |
4687 | Anyway, then Papa-- dear me, how it all comes back!--Papa says, fairly shouting,''Well, why ca n''t I have that suite?'' |
4687 | Are n''t we going to tea with Isabel Wallace?" |
4687 | Are n''t you glad you do n''t have to go?" |
4687 | Are you going to dinner there? |
4687 | Are you on? |
4687 | As Clem said, where would Billy be the minute they questioned an article of his, or gave him something for insertion, or cut his proof? |
4687 | Auntie''s well, and Mary Lou? |
4687 | Baxter?" |
4687 | Baxter?" |
4687 | Billy''s a hero, if you like,"she added, suddenly,"Did I tell you about the fracas in August?" |
4687 | Brauer?" |
4687 | Brauer?" |
4687 | But by whose decree might some of these be set aside, and ignored, while others must still be observed in the letter and the spirit? |
4687 | But how did other girls manage it? |
4687 | But if Lydia''s life was limited, what of Mary, whose brain was so active that merely to read of great and successful deeds tortured her like a pain? |
4687 | But if you''re dead--?" |
4687 | But immediately he added,"How about to- morrow, Jimsky?" |
4687 | But in what was he ever conventional; when did he ever do the expected thing? |
4687 | But is n''t it wonderful to-- to do it all together-- to be married?" |
4687 | But it would hardly be my place to interfere in business, when I do n''t know anything about it, would it? |
4687 | But marry that pampered little girl to some young millionaire, Sue, and what will her children inherit? |
4687 | But mean odd to other people if you go and I don''t- don''t you think so, Sue?" |
4687 | But obviously, some of it was said in all honesty, she thought, or why should he take the trouble to say it? |
4687 | But what about Thursday night?" |
4687 | But what of Stephen? |
4687 | But what''s the rent?" |
4687 | But you wo n''t go back with the others, dear? |
4687 | But, Sue, if I were a divorced man now, would you let it be a barrier?" |
4687 | But-- did you see the''Protest''last week?" |
4687 | Carroll?" |
4687 | Coleman''s rich, he can marry if he pleases, and he wants what he wants--- You could n''t just stop short, I suppose? |
4687 | Coleman?" |
4687 | Come on, and we''ll have tea at the club?" |
4687 | Come on, now, what''s the matter, all of a sudden?" |
4687 | D''ye hear that, Mama?" |
4687 | Did Margaret tell you about Richard and Ward, last Sunday? |
4687 | Did you ask her to your bridge lunch?" |
4687 | Did you go down and see the cabins; are n''t they dear? |
4687 | Do YOU think I''m funny and odd, Sue?" |
4687 | Do my eyes show?" |
4687 | Do n''t you care, Susan, what''s the difference?" |
4687 | Do n''t you love it?" |
4687 | Do n''t you love that?" |
4687 | Do n''t you remember I said I needed it, too?" |
4687 | Do n''t you remember? |
4687 | Do n''t you remember?" |
4687 | Do n''t you think that''s better?" |
4687 | Do n''t you wish something exciting would happen?" |
4687 | Do you honestly think they are any better than you are?" |
4687 | Do you know Alice Meynell and some of Patmore''s stuff, and the''Dread of Height''?" |
4687 | Do you know Clare Yelland? |
4687 | Do you know where she kept them?" |
4687 | Do you see anything of our dear friend Emily in these days?" |
4687 | Do you think that this is fair?" |
4687 | Do you wonder I think it''s worth while to educate people like that?" |
4687 | Do you?" |
4687 | Does n''t he know your mother?" |
4687 | Does n''t that give her a chance for self- development, and a chance to make herself a real companion to her husband?" |
4687 | Does that seem very strange to you? |
4687 | Ella gave her little sister a very keen look,"Vera Brock?" |
4687 | Ella is dreadful when she''s angry,--I do n''t know quite what I will do, if this ends my being here---""Why should it?" |
4687 | Ella would irritably demand, when her autocratic"Who''d you see to- day? |
4687 | Emily chattered of Miss Polk,"she seemed to think I was so funny and so odd, when we met her at Betty''s,"said Emily,"is n''t she crazy? |
4687 | For we ARE very old friends, are n''t we, Peter?" |
4687 | For what? |
4687 | Gerald?" |
4687 | Going up to see Ken?" |
4687 | Had Mrs. Wallace telephoned-- had the man fixed the mirror in Mr. Furlong''s bathroom-- had the wine come? |
4687 | Had Susan noticed him with older people? |
4687 | Had n''t you better change your mind and send me a book? |
4687 | Had not the promise of that happy day been a thousand times fulfilled? |
4687 | Had one month''s work been so noticeable? |
4687 | Had she deserved this slight in any way? |
4687 | Half this fuss is because they want to get rid of him-- they want him out of the way, d''ye see? |
4687 | Have you any feeling of resentment?" |
4687 | Have you found the Saunders party?" |
4687 | He had n''t been seriously hurt?" |
4687 | He returned to his own thoughts, presently adding,"Why do n''t you borrow a dress from Isabel?" |
4687 | He was more polite, more gentle, more kind that she remembered him-- what was missing, what was wrong to- day? |
4687 | He''s at the Hall, Joe, I dunno?" |
4687 | Her life is full of ease and beauty and power-- doesn''t that count? |
4687 | Here''s what he said first: he says,''Miss Thornton,''he says,''did you know that Miss Wrenn is leaving us?''" |
4687 | How answer it most effectively? |
4687 | How are you going to make it?" |
4687 | How are you?" |
4687 | How are you?" |
4687 | How could he manage what he did n''t understand? |
4687 | How do you do, Miss Brown? |
4687 | How false and selfish and shallow it seemed; had Peter always been that? |
4687 | How long since you''ve been over there, Sue?" |
4687 | How many of them are already in institutions?" |
4687 | How many pieces?" |
4687 | How much was real on her own? |
4687 | How''s that?" |
4687 | How''s the kid, Sue?" |
4687 | I could n''t see who she was with--""A party?" |
4687 | I go up two or three times a day, but she wo n''t talk to me.--Sue, ought this have more paper?" |
4687 | I have a date, but I think I can get out of it?" |
4687 | I nearly put your eye out, did n''t I? |
4687 | I never dreamed that it was Miss Saunders; how should I? |
4687 | I suppose Auntie would n''t stand for a dinner?" |
4687 | I want to work, and do heroic things, and grow to BE something, and how can I? |
4687 | I was going off with Russ on Sunday, but I''ll get out of it, and we''ll go see guard mount at the Presidio, and have tea with Aunt Clara, what?" |
4687 | I wonder if you could fix her hair like she wore it, and I''ll have to get her teeth---""Her what?" |
4687 | I wonder, Sue,"the mild banter ceased,"if you could get Mary''s dinner? |
4687 | I''m chaperoning a few of the girls down to the Palace for a cup of tea, Miss Brown,--perhaps you will waive all formality, and come too?" |
4687 | If Peter Coleman went out of her life, what remained? |
4687 | If Susan wanted a position why did n''t she apply to Madame Vera? |
4687 | If it rains, you and I''ll go to the Orpheum mat., what do you say?" |
4687 | If they were to live there, would this thing fit-- would that thing fit-- why not see paperers at once, why not look at stoves? |
4687 | Instead of the natural"What on earth are you talking about?" |
4687 | Is Elsie Kirk there?" |
4687 | Is Phil behaving?" |
4687 | Is he crazy? |
4687 | Is n''t Joe my property? |
4687 | Is n''t anything real?" |
4687 | Is n''t it DREADFUL?" |
4687 | Is n''t it lovely?" |
4687 | Is n''t she a peach? |
4687 | Is n''t she awful, Margaret? |
4687 | Is n''t she sweet?" |
4687 | Is she going to get forty?" |
4687 | Is there somebody?" |
4687 | Just after dinner she had waylaid William Oliver, with a tense,"Will you walk around the block with me, Billy? |
4687 | Just say,''Mother, do you realize that Christmas is a week from to- morrow?'' |
4687 | Let them form another club, exactly like it, would n''t that be the wiser thing? |
4687 | Listen, girls, did you hear Ward to- day? |
4687 | Love''s token, do n''t you know?" |
4687 | Mama and Baby and I have talked this thing all over, Susan,"she added casually,"and we want to know what you''d think of coming to live with us?" |
4687 | Maybe you''d do it, Lizzie?" |
4687 | Mr. Oliver? |
4687 | My dearest, you DO care?" |
4687 | Now she asked simply:"Where can I serve?" |
4687 | Of course his wife is particularly well and husky?" |
4687 | Of course they do n''t pay much, but money is n''t your object, is it?" |
4687 | Of what could she complain? |
4687 | Oh, I see, you write notes in the margins-- corrections?" |
4687 | Only ourselves, and Billy, who is as close to you as a dear brother could be, and Joe---""Oh, is Georgie going to tell Joe?" |
4687 | Or,"Susan, when did you begin to like me?" |
4687 | Orange- Pekoe? |
4687 | Overshoes,"the inventor would pursue,"fleece- lined leggings, coming well up on your-- may I allude to limbs, Miss Wrenn?" |
4687 | Peter saw her to the door,"Shall you be going out to- night, sir?" |
4687 | Peter, will you take Connie? |
4687 | Presently she said:"Billy?" |
4687 | Ready to go down?" |
4687 | Say that if he''ll recognize the union-- that''s the most important thing, is n''t it?" |
4687 | Say, Susan, has he come?" |
4687 | See here, Susan, I''m dated with Barney White in Berkeley to- night-- is that all right?" |
4687 | She and Thorny departing never tailed to remark,"How can they do it for twenty- five cents?" |
4687 | She began to say"Not really?" |
4687 | She had not come to ask a favor of this more fortunate woman, but-- the thought flashed through her mind-- suppose she had? |
4687 | She herself hoped for a little girl, would n''t it be sweet to call it May? |
4687 | She would make some brief excuse to Mrs. Fox,--headache or the memory of an engagement--"Do you know where Mrs. Fox is?" |
4687 | She"had St. Joseph"for Easter, she said, would Virginia help her"fix him"? |
4687 | Should Peter be treated a little coolly; Emily''s next overture declined? |
4687 | Should she have come away directly after luncheon? |
4687 | So I just said,''What is it?'' |
4687 | So I said,''Well, is it a matter of international importance?''" |
4687 | So that if it had n''t been for me--''""But, Thorny, what''s she leaving for?" |
4687 | Steal?" |
4687 | Step in here, will you, please? |
4687 | Such varied and wonderful gifts? |
4687 | Suppose that she hinted at herself as consoled by some newer admirer? |
4687 | Suppose you died?" |
4687 | Suppose your aunt is out?" |
4687 | Susan could not turn over in the night without arousing Mary Lou, who would mutter a terrified"What is it-- what is it?" |
4687 | Susan had time to think his voice a little deep and odd before he added, with an effort,"We''ll come back here often, wo n''t we? |
4687 | Susan said, in quick uneasiness,"ARE you angry?" |
4687 | Susan thought of the woman in the next room, wondered if she was lying awake, too, alone with sick and sorrowful memories? |
4687 | Susan would have her hour, would try to keep the tenderness out of her"When do I see you again, Peter?" |
4687 | Tell me,"Miss Saunders lowered her voice,"is Mrs. Baxter in? |
4687 | That is something, eh? |
4687 | The blanket has n''t gotten over his little face, has it?" |
4687 | The doctor just came up the steps, Bill, will you go down and ask him to come right up? |
4687 | Then abruptly she added:"Can you lunch with me to- morrow-- no, Wednesday-- at the Town and Country, infant?" |
4687 | There''s only one thing for you to do?" |
4687 | Tickets? |
4687 | To C. G. N. How shall I give you this, who long have known Your gift of all the best of life to me? |
4687 | To- day the phrase,"Would a nice girl DO that?" |
4687 | Up behind the convent here?" |
4687 | Want to finish this with me?" |
4687 | Was he not still sweet and big and clean, rich and handsome and popular, socially prominent and suitable in age and faith and nationality? |
4687 | Was it Auntie? |
4687 | Was it something that she should, in all dignity, resent? |
4687 | Was n''t it better to do that sort of thing with money than to be a Mary Lou, say, without? |
4687 | Was that it?" |
4687 | We did n''t see this coming when we married on less than a hundred a month, did we?" |
4687 | We said we were going to start a stock- ranch, and raise racers, do n''t you remember?" |
4687 | Well, after we got seated-- we had a table way at the back-- I suddenly noticed Violet Kirk, sitting in one of those private alcoves, you know--?" |
4687 | Well, let''s walk the pup? |
4687 | Were you at the Columbia?" |
4687 | What ARE the blue- prints?" |
4687 | What WAS the secret of living honestly, with the past, with the present, with those who were to come? |
4687 | What about the net one she wore to Isabel''s?" |
4687 | What about the schools?" |
4687 | What at?" |
4687 | What consolation for a woman who set her feet deliberately in the path of wrong? |
4687 | What could she do, except appear friendly and responsive? |
4687 | What could she say to hold the interest of this radiant young princess? |
4687 | What could the happy Susan do but pin on a rose with the crescent, her own cheeks two roses, and go singing down to dinner? |
4687 | What did I break?" |
4687 | What did she know-- what could she do? |
4687 | What do they know?" |
4687 | What do you know about that, Clem?" |
4687 | What do you think?" |
4687 | What do you, of all women, know about the problems and the drawbacks of a life like mine?" |
4687 | What does she know about it, anyway? |
4687 | What girl, for instance?" |
4687 | What happens next?" |
4687 | What if she got up and went silently, swiftly out? |
4687 | What if vows and protestations, plans and confidences were still all to come, what if the very first kiss was still to come? |
4687 | What is it, Stephen? |
4687 | What is it?" |
4687 | What is it?" |
4687 | What is it?" |
4687 | What is there in that to embarrass you?" |
4687 | What is this special great need?" |
4687 | What more can I do?" |
4687 | What of these petty little hopes and joys and fears that fretted her like a cloud of midges day and night? |
4687 | What pleasanter prospect could anyone have? |
4687 | What should she be feeling now? |
4687 | What then? |
4687 | What then? |
4687 | What was it?" |
4687 | What was she to do this moment, indeed? |
4687 | What were you going to say?" |
4687 | What would a stronger woman have done? |
4687 | What''d you do?" |
4687 | What''ll it be?" |
4687 | What? |
4687 | When was I ever rude to your mother?" |
4687 | When was it that Billy always began to take his place at Susan''s side, at the campfire, their shoulders almost touching in the dark? |
4687 | When we were talking about it Monday she said she''d rather I didn''t--""Oh, she did? |
4687 | Where are these good people?" |
4687 | Where did you think?" |
4687 | Where do you THINK I got it? |
4687 | Where first? |
4687 | Where had Susan been hiding-- and how wonderfully well she was looking-- and why had n''t she come to see Isabel''s new house? |
4687 | Where''s everyone?" |
4687 | Where?" |
4687 | Who is it? |
4687 | Who said Joe Chickering belonged to you? |
4687 | Who would give away the bride? |
4687 | Whom are you going with to- night? |
4687 | Why are n''t they enough? |
4687 | Why ca n''t you stay at home, doing all the little dainty, pretty things that only a woman can do, to make a home lovely?" |
4687 | Why could n''t you?" |
4687 | Why did a keen pain stir her heart, as she stood idly twisting it in her fingers? |
4687 | Why did n''t you have Chow Yew say that you were out?" |
4687 | Why did she say that?" |
4687 | Why do n''t you come?" |
4687 | Why do n''t you go to bed, Sue?" |
4687 | Why do n''t you let us call for you? |
4687 | Why do n''t you stay in your own crowd?" |
4687 | Why not work for that?" |
4687 | Why not, having advanced a long way in this direction, to each other? |
4687 | Why not?" |
4687 | Why should she not trust this man, whom all the world admired and trusted? |
4687 | Why?" |
4687 | Will ye be seated, ladies? |
4687 | Will you do your fat friend a favor?" |
4687 | Will you let me take care of you, dear? |
4687 | Will you run up with these to Ken-- and take these violets, too?" |
4687 | Will you trust me? |
4687 | Will you? |
4687 | Would Susan come to them for Thanksgiving and stay until Josephine''s wedding on December third? |
4687 | Would n''t you honestly rather have Jo, say, marry a rich man than a poor man, other things being equal?" |
4687 | Would you like that?" |
4687 | Would you like to have a look downstairs before we go to lunch?" |
4687 | You and I''ll get married, d''ye see?" |
4687 | You ca n''t care for him?" |
4687 | You could n''t simply turn down all his invitations, and refuse everything?" |
4687 | You could n''t take the public school examinations, could you, Miss Lydia? |
4687 | You go to lunch with Miss Emily Saunders, and to Burlingame with Miss Ella Saunders, you get all sorts of handsome presents-- isn''t this all true?" |
4687 | You made it---?" |
4687 | You shall have your circle--""But I thought you were not going to Japan until the serial rights of the novel were sold?" |
4687 | You young folks going to give us a wedding?" |
4687 | You''re engaged to him?" |
4687 | Your scones on that side, and mine on this, and my butter- knife between the two, like Prosper Le Gai''s sword, eh?" |
4687 | and then, if you can, just go right on boldly and say,''Mother, you wo n''t spoil it for us all by not coming downstairs?''" |
4687 | gasped Mrs. Fox,--"ask Miss Brown to come and have tea with us, is that it? |
4687 | he asked for the third ensuing, and surrendered Susan to some dark youth unknown, who said,"Ours? |
4687 | he said absently, adding eagerly,"Say, why ca n''t you come and help me buy some things this afternoon? |
4687 | instead of"Sat- so?" |
4687 | mourned her aunt,"why ca n''t you stay here happily with us, lovey? |
4687 | or"Ca n''t you remember what it was Isabel said that she was going to get? |
4687 | pursued Dolly, to Susan,"why do n''t you come down and spend a week with me? |
4687 | said an aged gentleman who was known for no good reason as"Major,""what''s all this? |
4687 | said he,"do''ee smell asparagus?" |
4687 | said the young woman,"but AREN''T you Stephen Graham Bocqueraz? |
4687 | she laughed proudly,"Do you think you could have sent Ferd away with an excuse? |
4687 | she said, gaily,"be you a- follering of me, or be I a- follering of you?" |
4687 | sobbed Mary Lou,"will she get well?" |
4687 | whispered the foolish, fond little mother,"and we''ll go into town next week and buy all sorts of pretty things, shall we? |
5636 | What am I to do?... |
5636 | Who to?" |
5636 | ''Ad a nice day, miss? |
5636 | Alymer,she whispered, a little brokenly,"I wonder if I ought to be ready to give you all, and ask nothing? |
5636 | Am I to gather that you returned to London alone, in a motor- car, with a perfect stranger? |
5636 | Am I? 5636 And after all Lorraine did not help me to this hour of success, am I to throw away my chance?" |
5636 | And are you engaged to the young man whose steering gear went wrong? |
5636 | And before I came? |
5636 | And did it seem as if it would be impossible ever to reach the top? |
5636 | And did she sight of her robust health knock you backwards? |
5636 | And did you change your mind then? |
5636 | And did you tell him who you were? |
5636 | And do n''t most men take help from a woman at some time or other? |
5636 | And do n''t you agree with him? |
5636 | And do you go to people you do n''t know? |
5636 | And do you propose to try and help him to emulate the reasonable, rational condition of the potato and cabbage? |
5636 | And do you want to revolutionise society? |
5636 | And does n''t he know his own mother? |
5636 | And have you any theory about it? |
5636 | And here, was it just like this all the time? 5636 And if you had?" |
5636 | And in the meantime you will prove it by coming out to lunch on Sunday? 5636 And is Hal the model for your heroine?" |
5636 | And is he in love with you? |
5636 | And is she so strikingly lovely? |
5636 | And is your husband living? |
5636 | And of course she married him for his money? 5636 And she did n''t tell you anything?" |
5636 | And so the duchess took you into her boudoir? |
5636 | And supposing I were? |
5636 | And supposing you want it a few lines longer? |
5636 | And that is not the real sense? |
5636 | And then?... |
5636 | And was she very charming? 5636 And what became of the new doctor?" |
5636 | And what did she say about your companionship? |
5636 | And what has made you feel all that? 5636 And what if it ruins my life to marry him?" |
5636 | And what in the world should I do with a splendid wife? |
5636 | And what of you? |
5636 | And when he does? |
5636 | And when you want to marry? |
5636 | And where do the babies come in? |
5636 | And who may''G''be? |
5636 | And you are going at once? |
5636 | And you will go to see her, and persuade her to drop him; wo n''t you, Percy? 5636 Any one else?" |
5636 | Anything about what? |
5636 | Are n''t you a rather old? |
5636 | Are n''t you going to sit down? |
5636 | Are they still friends, then? 5636 Are we a decadent race?" |
5636 | Are you a doctor? |
5636 | Are you angry with me? |
5636 | Are you better? |
5636 | Are you ever reckless nowadays? |
5636 | Are you going into the country? |
5636 | Are you going to see Basil again? 5636 Are you going?..." |
5636 | Are you joining me this evening? |
5636 | Are you taking rooms at Colney Hatch while you do it? |
5636 | At your flat? |
5636 | Awful, is n''t it? |
5636 | Basil, why are so many humans just mere letters of the alphabet in the general scheme? |
5636 | Brother Dudley might see us? |
5636 | But I thought you were a clergyman''s daughter? |
5636 | But I''ve not the smallest wish to be in Sir Edwin''s clutches, so why should I try to imagine it?... 5636 But if the other man was the Lord of the Manor''s brother?" |
5636 | But it does n''t?... |
5636 | But it hurt, Lorraine?... 5636 But really, dear Alymer,"reverting again to the mocking tone,"at what period of your friendship with him have you had occasion to find him out?" |
5636 | But surely she could n''t actually fall in love with a man like Edwin Crathie? |
5636 | But what is the matter with Lorraine? |
5636 | But why did you, dear? |
5636 | But why have n''t you? 5636 But why should n''t I take any notice? |
5636 | But why wait until three? |
5636 | But why- her lips quivered a little-"did you think it necessary to insult both of us by, at the same time, becoming lover- like to me?" |
5636 | But you do n''t do it for the under- done young parson, surely? |
5636 | But you just said you were sorry for me? |
5636 | Ca n''t you tell him how to be clever in a useful sort of fashion, with all your practical experience? |
5636 | Child,he breathed,"have n''t I waited long enough? |
5636 | Come to the Carlton on Sunday, will you? |
5636 | Did Dudley give you that? 5636 Did he deliberately get engaged to the other girl, knowing he cared for you?" |
5636 | Did he give any name? |
5636 | Did n''t you? 5636 Did no one do any parish work then?" |
5636 | Did you do that? |
5636 | Did you take her by the shoulders? |
5636 | Do I get much pleasure out of anything? |
5636 | Do I suggest anything, except perhaps a butcher or an undertaker? 5636 Do n''t you think we are rather talking drivel? |
5636 | Do n''t you want to go? 5636 Do you always want to know the why of things?" |
5636 | Do you know it is half- past six? |
5636 | Do you know that Alymer Hermon has just got the chance of his life? |
5636 | Do you know the Duchess of Medstone? |
5636 | Do you know,he told her blandly,"you''re the dearest litte woman I''ve met for a long time? |
5636 | Do you mean that you wish me to give up the box? |
5636 | Do you really think I''m such a rotter as all that? |
5636 | Do you think I could be very wicked? |
5636 | Do you think you could lose your head? |
5636 | Do you usually tease your feminine friends? |
5636 | Do you wonder that? |
5636 | Does Dick Bruce consider himself entitled to every Sunday? |
5636 | Does Miss Hayward know? |
5636 | Does he? |
5636 | Does n''t it mean that she has passed some crisis and will live? |
5636 | Does n''t your great case come on this afternoon, or to- morrow morning? |
5636 | Dudley,she finished mischievously,"what are you going to give Lorraine for a wedding- present?" |
5636 | Eh? 5636 Ethel... chum... you will try and help her?" |
5636 | Full up of what? |
5636 | Hal?... |
5636 | Has he won any prizes? |
5636 | Has it come to that already? |
5636 | Has she? |
5636 | Have you ever been behind the scenes? 5636 Have you heard a rumour that he is going to marry Miss Bootes?" |
5636 | Have you seen Sir Edwin Crathie again? |
5636 | Have you seen Splodgkins lately? |
5636 | Have you seen your friend the duchess lately? |
5636 | Have you?... |
5636 | Have-_you_-come- about- Alymer- Hermon? |
5636 | He is nothing to you, is he- no relation, I mean? |
5636 | Her age? |
5636 | How can I let Dudley know? 5636 How can he take you for a fly if you do n''t know who he is?" |
5636 | How can mere beauty ever appeal to me, who have been accustomed to all you have besides? |
5636 | How could I help doing it? 5636 How could he?" |
5636 | How did you get on? |
5636 | How did you know? 5636 How did you leave Basil?" |
5636 | How do you like me? |
5636 | How do you manage it? |
5636 | How so?... |
5636 | How soon? |
5636 | How''s Basil? 5636 How?" |
5636 | Hullo, Baby,she said, addressing Hermon,"where have you sprung from?" |
5636 | I daresay with me he would have developed a little more soul, and a little less stomach- but what of it? 5636 I hope Lorraine is n''t ill?" |
5636 | I hope you are not intending to imply he is more richly endowed with dishonest purpose? |
5636 | I hope you did n''t tell the under- done young parson about''The Old Bull and Bush''? |
5636 | I hope you do n''t mind going slowly, it is so difficult to steer in te dark? |
5636 | I know I did n''t perhaps treat you quite well; but if there are any amends I can make now? 5636 I say, Hal, you''re coming to the Footer match to- morrow, are n''t you?" |
5636 | I say, may I come and dine with you some other time? |
5636 | I say, you''re giving me rather a rotten character, are n''t you? |
5636 | I suppose I must n''t take you home? |
5636 | I suppose Sir Edwin was in love with you? |
5636 | I suppose he would be horrified at this outing? |
5636 | I suppose it is n''t any use reminding you that your personal expenditure exceeds mine? |
5636 | I suppose poor Basil is much the same? |
5636 | I suppose,said Hal,"the other side have got a very small man, and they wanted a big one to frighten him?" |
5636 | I thought you said you were a music- teacher? |
5636 | I wonder if our escapade with Lady Bounce is out yet? 5636 I wonder sometimes if any of you honestly put the country first at any time; or whether it is just a popular name for a very big''me''?" |
5636 | I wonder what G would think of a sane man spending his evening ruling pointless- looking lines on a big sheet of paper? |
5636 | I wonder where she was? |
5636 | I wonder who we both are? |
5636 | I wonder why you do it? |
5636 | I wonder why you think that? |
5636 | I wonder why? |
5636 | I''m afraid I do n''t as a rule bother much, but this is a little amazing, is n''t it? |
5636 | I''m afraid by your manner you do disapprove? |
5636 | If I promise to run down and see you, will you go away at once, and try to get well again quickly? |
5636 | If you care, why ca n''t you have the courage to come to me? |
5636 | If you wo n''t listen to any plea from me, will you permit me to make one from his mother, and appeal to the woman in you to realise her anxiety? |
5636 | In conclusion,he was saying,"may I suggest a toast to Miss Pritchard? |
5636 | Is Hal trying to sharpen her wit at your expense? |
5636 | Is Lady Bounce Quin''s aunt? |
5636 | Is he a beautiful baby, or a youth, or a man? |
5636 | Is he away with Miss Vivian? |
5636 | Is it Lorraine? |
5636 | Is it because you find I am so dull, you still have to talk to me? |
5636 | Is it really past six?... |
5636 | Is it the women or the men of the family that are beautiful? |
5636 | Is n''t it rather sudden? |
5636 | Is n''t it sure to be? |
5636 | Is n''t there a Poor Law for that express purpose? |
5636 | Is she better herself? 5636 Is she far from a station?" |
5636 | Is that Miss Pritchard? |
5636 | Is that all? 5636 Is there any chance of fishing?" |
5636 | Is this all true, or am I dreaming? 5636 Is this where you live? |
5636 | It does n''t tire you... my being here?... |
5636 | It is more supervision, then, that you want? |
5636 | It sounds as if your book has a serious side in spite of its imbecility? |
5636 | It''s only pretence, then? |
5636 | Jean,she called to her maid, as she passed through the little hall,"Will you open the door for this gentleman?" |
5636 | Manage what? 5636 May I come in?" |
5636 | May I sing? |
5636 | May I stay? |
5636 | My dear old girl, what in the world is the matter? |
5636 | My only child is one of the first actresses in London, and what is it to me? 5636 Nay, worse- what will he have left to spur him to try and regain his proud position, and go on up the heights of fame? |
5636 | No; why? 5636 Not Dick?..." |
5636 | Not even if your brother expressed a wish on the subject? |
5636 | Nothing else than what? |
5636 | Now, what should you like to do to- morrow? |
5636 | Of course she would,he said decidedly- and to Hal:"What time do we leave Charing Cross?" |
5636 | Oh well, old man, you would n''t like me to be helpless, and foolish, and woolly- lambified, would you? 5636 Oh"- with a low laugh,"and is it quite hopeless?" |
5636 | Oh, I_ could_; but what''s the use? 5636 Oh, could I?" |
5636 | Oh, do n''t talk... how can I write? 5636 Oh, he did, did he? |
5636 | Oh, that''s why you did it, is it? 5636 Oh, wo n''t I?" |
5636 | Oh, wo n''t I? |
5636 | Oh, you have, have you? |
5636 | Oh, you''re a working young lady, are you? |
5636 | Oh, your are, are you? 5636 Perhaps the post is already filled?" |
5636 | Really, Hal,Miss Walton remonstrated,"ca n''t you even keep tidy for an hour in the evening?" |
5636 | Shall I bring any one else? |
5636 | Shall I call for you every day? |
5636 | Shall I go to Ethel? |
5636 | She''d be rather in the way, would n''t she? 5636 Should she go straight back to the little flat in Holloway, or should she go west, and get the drawing- paper Basil was wanting?" |
5636 | Sir Edwin Crathie? |
5636 | Sir Edwin''s motor? |
5636 | Some one with more money and influence, I suppose? 5636 Sould you have thought so?" |
5636 | Still no doubt she was very nice to you? |
5636 | Still, I do n''t think we can stop a''rather liking'', now- do you? |
5636 | Still, when it comes to being hungry and cold and having no money? |
5636 | Surely not Miss Vivian of the Queen''s Theatre? |
5636 | Tell me who you happen to be? |
5636 | That''s only thumping; and who wants thumping? |
5636 | That''s what Lorraine has sometimes said; but what can I do? 5636 The matter?..." |
5636 | Then dit you come home by train? |
5636 | Then he is engaged? |
5636 | Then may I have a Saturday afternoon? |
5636 | Then of course, you saw Lorraine? |
5636 | Then what about Sunday? |
5636 | Then what do you want? |
5636 | Then what is it?... 5636 Then who the devil is it?" |
5636 | Then why in the world do n''t you look after her a bit? 5636 Then you are reckless now?" |
5636 | Then you only had one, I suppose? |
5636 | Then you''ll try, Flip? |
5636 | Then you''ve seen him? |
5636 | There always has to be a beginning- does n''t there? |
5636 | There is a very pretty daughter, just out; is n''t there? |
5636 | Too many briefs, eh? |
5636 | Ver likely- only, since you wanted your day in the country, you kill two birds with one stone, do n''t you see? |
5636 | Very nearly perhaps? |
5636 | Was it all like this on Thursday night- all these delicious scents and sights and sounds cast broadcast, for all who passed to enjoy? |
5636 | Was it some one you knew, then? |
5636 | Well, am I forgiven? |
5636 | Well, if you''re going to Downing Street? |
5636 | Well, tell them you are going to be married... You_ are_ going to be married, are n''t you?... |
5636 | Well, there is n''t much to boast of in the way of men on the Conservative side, is there? 5636 Well, what is the matter with her?" |
5636 | Well, why do n''t you answer? 5636 Well, why not value the horse, as you think so much of it? |
5636 | Well, will you dream you are going to take her for a spin into the country shortly? 5636 Well, you have n''t yet told me what is?" |
5636 | Well,he suggested, a little daringly,"if he is able to chaperone you at the inn himself? |
5636 | Well- and what if I did? |
5636 | Well? |
5636 | Were n''t you introduced? |
5636 | What about Ethel and Basil? |
5636 | What about the love affair, is it all satisfactorily off? 5636 What about your victims?" |
5636 | What am I to think? 5636 What are they going to do?" |
5636 | What are you doing in the kitchen? |
5636 | What are you going to do? |
5636 | What business had he to call you by your Christian name? |
5636 | What can we expect from him any more? 5636 What can you mean, Dick? |
5636 | What do you call boys? |
5636 | What do you call it? |
5636 | What do you call''in the real sense''? |
5636 | What do you do on Sundays? |
5636 | What do you know of him? |
5636 | What do you mean by fair play? |
5636 | What do you mean? |
5636 | What do you think Lorraine has done now? 5636 What do you think?" |
5636 | What does the court physician say, Lorry? 5636 What else can we do?" |
5636 | What else is there so say? 5636 What has Brother Dudley go to do with it?... |
5636 | What has Hal been saying to you? |
5636 | What has become of Rod? |
5636 | What has happened to all the other moments? |
5636 | What has happened, Hal? |
5636 | What has happened?... 5636 What have my briefs to do with it?" |
5636 | What have you to do with mild fancies? 5636 What if he hears you were out motoring at Richmond with me?" |
5636 | What if it were true? |
5636 | What in the world are we to do? 5636 What in the world for?" |
5636 | What in the world has happened to you? 5636 What in the world is the matter with Alymer?" |
5636 | What in the world will become of Basil? |
5636 | What is anything in the world,''it seemed to cry,compared to being true to one''s friend; true to one''s word; true to one''s love?" |
5636 | What is he to you?... |
5636 | What is it? |
5636 | What is the matter? |
5636 | What is the matter?... 5636 What is your favourite pastime? |
5636 | What letter do you stand for? |
5636 | What of me?... 5636 What office?" |
5636 | What shall I do? |
5636 | What sort of dangers?... 5636 What then?" |
5636 | What time does the next train leave? |
5636 | What was the letter about? |
5636 | What would Brother Dudley do then? |
5636 | What''s making you so ratty to- night? 5636 What''s the good of putting that in?" |
5636 | What''s the good of that? 5636 What''s the matter, Dudley?... |
5636 | What''s the matter? 5636 What''s the matter?" |
5636 | When do you think I should go? |
5636 | When does the case come on? |
5636 | When? |
5636 | Where are the socks, G? |
5636 | Where are you going to- night, Baby? |
5636 | Where do you propose going? |
5636 | Where to? |
5636 | Where will you go? |
5636 | Where? 5636 Whereas you? |
5636 | Which is it to be? 5636 Which way?" |
5636 | Whither away at this hour? 5636 Who did bring you?" |
5636 | Who does the Baby belong to? |
5636 | Who has she gone with? |
5636 | Who is he? 5636 Who told you that?" |
5636 | Who was he? |
5636 | Who was in this other car? |
5636 | Who were you thinking of? |
5636 | Who''d ever have thought, to see the ugly little imp of a small child you were, that you would grow up into a fashionable, striking woman? 5636 Who''s the happy man to- night? |
5636 | Who''s your favourite poet? 5636 Why did n''t Dick come with you? |
5636 | Why did n''t you tell Jean to''phone me? |
5636 | Why do n''t you compose a masterpiece, and scale Olympus? |
5636 | Why do n''t you go? 5636 Why do you do all this for him?" |
5636 | Why do you do it? |
5636 | Why do you harp on my age so?... 5636 Why do you hope so?" |
5636 | Why do you mind? |
5636 | Why do you say it like that? |
5636 | Why do you suppose it? |
5636 | Why do you teach music? 5636 Why do you think I should be a doctor?" |
5636 | Why do you turn away when I am interested? 5636 Why do you want me?" |
5636 | Why have n''t I known you for years? 5636 Why in the world not? |
5636 | Why is he better than most men? 5636 Why need it end?... |
5636 | Why not bring Miss Vivian with you? |
5636 | Why not put angling, and give some of my dear enemies a chance to ask what for? |
5636 | Why not? |
5636 | Why not? |
5636 | Why should n''t I be going to a dinner- party? |
5636 | Why so far? |
5636 | Why, is he so big? |
5636 | Why, that is splendid news- do n''t you think so? |
5636 | Why? 5636 Why? |
5636 | Why? |
5636 | Will Brother Dudley be in? |
5636 | Will that make it possible for us to remain friends? |
5636 | Will you come in? |
5636 | Will you? |
5636 | Will you? |
5636 | Wo n''t you come and sit in front? |
5636 | Would n''t the dear old pater have enjoyed G? 5636 Yes- will you? |
5636 | Yes; why not? 5636 Yes; you''re not very surprised, are you?" |
5636 | Yes? 5636 Yes?... |
5636 | You absurd child, what in the world could he be to me? 5636 You could n''t possibly think seriously of marrying Doris Hayward?" |
5636 | You danced with her? |
5636 | You do n''t know Quin''s aunt, Lady Bounce, do you? 5636 You do n''t know his name?" |
5636 | You do n''t know when to expect her?... |
5636 | You like being here, like this? |
5636 | You liked it? |
5636 | You promise you wo n''t scratch me and bite me? |
5636 | You think he should stay for it? |
5636 | You think you will find me even duller than nothing? |
5636 | You will come again? |
5636 | You''ll stay with her if she wants you? |
5636 | You... you asked Doris to go to the White City?... |
5636 | _ Are_ you a Cabinet Minister?... |
5636 | _ Have you_? |
5636 | ''Know? |
5636 | - If you will let us be friends again? |
5636 | - What if she brought a shadow where there would otherwise have been no shadow, dimmed a brightness that, without her, had gone undimmed? |
5636 | -""You had heard of him?..." |
5636 | ... Do you mean Doris?" |
5636 | ... Is she Ill?" |
5636 | ... flowers, and sweet scents, and spring, and hopefulness? |
5636 | ... why? |
5636 | ... why? |
5636 | A little helpless, a little childish, she might be, but what clever man does not love a clinging woman? |
5636 | A roomy electric brougham was awaiting them, and then the watchers said it glided away:"Surely that is Lady Phyllis''s car and liveries?" |
5636 | After all, it is n''t any more incongruous than the music- is it?" |
5636 | Ah, I, with whom else ever dancing attendance, and changing in identity every few months?" |
5636 | All about her, as she moved towards him, she heard the low- voiced query:"Who is he?" |
5636 | Alymer insists she is a lady in the real sense; though, if so, why did she go on the stage?" |
5636 | And again,"Why had Dudley been so incredibly blind to Doris''s real nature? |
5636 | And all the time she asked herself with harried thoughts,"Who has brought this trouble into Lorraine''s life?" |
5636 | And are you as changeable?" |
5636 | And at the back of her mind was the dread premonition"Was it indeed Alymer Hermon?" |
5636 | And did you really suppose I should submit without making an effort to see you, and persuade you to be friends again?" |
5636 | And even if it did, could it make hi unlove her?... |
5636 | And even so, was it in any case likely to go undimmed much longer? |
5636 | And how to help him? |
5636 | And if so, what had prompted him? |
5636 | And if so- why? |
5636 | And instead had come... ah, what? |
5636 | And instead? |
5636 | And instead?... |
5636 | And now I suppose you are going straight off home to dress, and dine with some one else, and forget about me?" |
5636 | And now, if only her husband proved amenable, proved livable with, how different everything would be? |
5636 | And now? |
5636 | And then followed the dangerous thought:"Is it indeed too late?" |
5636 | And there again, where should he encounter such a desire? |
5636 | And what aged man might he be?" |
5636 | And what did it mean to her? |
5636 | And what did you say?" |
5636 | And when the only thing in all the world you want is your freedom, do you imagine he''ll give you that?" |
5636 | And which horse do you back for next year''s Derby?" |
5636 | And who are his people that they dare to treat me like this? |
5636 | And who in the world was she with? |
5636 | And why wo n''t she take your safe advice?" |
5636 | And yet why did she not look out for her numerous friends, down there in the stalls, and recognise them? |
5636 | And yet, if the rumour was not false, what else could result? |
5636 | And yet? |
5636 | And yet? |
5636 | And yet? |
5636 | And you? |
5636 | Anyhow, he did n''t think it a heinous crime did he? |
5636 | Are both Mr. Hayward''s sisters out?" |
5636 | Are n''t you labouring under the delusion that you''re a remarkable fine specimen of humanity? |
5636 | Are the babies talking philosophy over their bottles? |
5636 | Are you chasing a brief?" |
5636 | Are you engaged to Miss Bootes?" |
5636 | Are you going to mother him? |
5636 | Are you meditating upon Lorraine''s trouble, or my suggestion, that it is unlikely she could endure a whole week of you, unadulterated?" |
5636 | Are you one of them?" |
5636 | Are you still free?" |
5636 | Are you there?" |
5636 | Are you thinking of falling in love foolishly?" |
5636 | Are you?" |
5636 | As an afterthought he added:"I suppose Hal could n''t get off?" |
5636 | As long as the world does n''t know- who cares? |
5636 | At the door he asked her pleadingly:"May I came in for a moment? |
5636 | Awful thought, is n''t it? |
5636 | Be a sensible little girl, wo n''t you?" |
5636 | Besides, he did n''t worry much about getting you talked of, did he?" |
5636 | But how could she go alone? |
5636 | But how get it for him? |
5636 | But if you will pardon my curiosity, why take root in the middle of the road and ask for trouble?" |
5636 | But if you would go-?" |
5636 | But that, of course, no one could help; as how should they know the fine shades between the women who lived outside the conventions? |
5636 | But then again, they need not know that the great friendship existed- why should they? |
5636 | But then what of Alymer? |
5636 | But was it worht it? |
5636 | But why need she know? |
5636 | But, after all, if she did, what matter? |
5636 | CHAPTER XXXVI When they were half- way through dinner Hal asked, a trifle abruptly:"Now, what about this piece of news? |
5636 | Can you start to- morrow?" |
5636 | Come and see me again soon, wo n''t you?" |
5636 | Come down east with me next Wednesdayn evening, to a social evening in the slums, will you? |
5636 | Did Dudley suspect anything? |
5636 | Did he consent this time?" |
5636 | Did he try, Hal?" |
5636 | Did she call you Baby?" |
5636 | Did she or did she not?" |
5636 | Did she say when she might be coming back?" |
5636 | Did the Queen wear a black hat, or a dark purple one?" |
5636 | Did you ask him if anything was wrong?" |
5636 | Did you ask him?" |
5636 | Did you feel like a boiled owl at your first appearance? |
5636 | Did you get to see him?" |
5636 | Did you see much of her?" |
5636 | Did you want to punish my presumption for wishing to try and distinguish myself before you, as well as save a woman''s life and honour?" |
5636 | Did your hair require an extra half- hour? |
5636 | Do I have the pleasure of going abouth with her? |
5636 | Do I look too nice to care whether working women and outcast women are fairly treated or not?" |
5636 | Do n''t mince matters at all, will you? |
5636 | Do n''t they almost make you feel a corpse?" |
5636 | Do n''t you even want to plead in the greatest law court in the world as one of the first barristers in Europe?" |
5636 | Do n''t you think you might be a little pleased that I do n''t want you to forget me?" |
5636 | Do you always credit people with self- interested motives?" |
5636 | Do you imagine either Ethel or Doris Hayward would do the wild things you do?" |
5636 | Do you know Lottie Bird?... |
5636 | Do you know where you were born? |
5636 | Do you like men to have lofty ideas, and be priggish?" |
5636 | Do you mean the Cabinet Minister?" |
5636 | Do you mean the well- known celebrity?" |
5636 | Do you mind turning towards home now? |
5636 | Do you or do you not believe your escort was Sir Edwin Crathie?" |
5636 | Do you suppose I would consider it for a moment if I could find any other way out? |
5636 | Do you suppose I would risk losing you, would even dream of giving you up, if I were not driven to it by the very hell- hounds of circumstance? |
5636 | Do you think he will?" |
5636 | Do you understand? |
5636 | Do you want Alymer?" |
5636 | Do you- er- happen to know if she is of the nature one can offer money to?" |
5636 | Does he take Saturday afternoons as well?" |
5636 | Does it makes any difference?" |
5636 | Does that satisfy your curiosity, or do you want to know more?" |
5636 | Ethel and her inconsolable grief? |
5636 | Even putting aside the vexed question of suffragism, how little has she ever done to try and cope with the needs of working womanhood? |
5636 | Ever and anon her longing whispered,"Why seek a crisis yet? |
5636 | For a moment she looked steadily into his eyes, and then she asked:"How has this report of your engagement got into the papers?" |
5636 | Got any briefs yet?" |
5636 | Had he changed his mind, or had he possibly forgotten? |
5636 | Had not life itself mocked at her early aspirations, and trampled jeeringly on her untutored, unformed high desires? |
5636 | Had she not always dealt him laughter and careless scorn where other women bowed down? |
5636 | Had she not, over and over, weighed him in the balance, in that quiet, direct way of hers, and seen the weak strain that had always been there? |
5636 | Had you any idea who he was?" |
5636 | Had you better see Mr. Elliott about being absent from the office for a day or two, or shall I see him in the morning?" |
5636 | Hal commenced to pull on her gloves as if there were no more to say, and then Denton asked her:"Will you wait too?" |
5636 | Hal leant down and murmured:"What is it, Lorry?... |
5636 | Hal remained silent, though she felt her pulses quicken, and he added:"Come, we are going to be friends again; are n''t we? |
5636 | Hal, if you like me, why not take the sweets that offer? |
5636 | Hal, my darling, who is ever to be any the wiser if you and I are lovers? |
5636 | Has n''t she grown much better- looking?" |
5636 | Have n''t you any ambition? |
5636 | Have the carrots and turnips decided which take precedence yet? |
5636 | Have you any grave doubts yourself?" |
5636 | Have you any idea who he was?" |
5636 | Have you been consulting a beauty specialist?" |
5636 | Have you got to squeeze it all into thirty- six lines?" |
5636 | Have you had bad news?" |
5636 | Have you had supper?" |
5636 | Have you heard about the tin- pot organ that will play its own way, and the choir that gets convulsed, and the underdone young parson? |
5636 | Have you seen him before?" |
5636 | Have you seen him lately?" |
5636 | Hayward''s?" |
5636 | He does n''t put his knife in his mouth, and that sort of thing, does he?" |
5636 | He is n''t worrying her again, is he?" |
5636 | He looked at her a moment as if to make sure she was not joking, and then said, with sarcastic lips:"A man old enough to be her father? |
5636 | He paused a moment and then asked,"Is it Goliath to- night?" |
5636 | He paused, then added:"Do I?" |
5636 | He wanted to get there, and if Lorraine was ready to help him, why should she not? |
5636 | He was silent a few minutes, then added:"I suppose, down at that office they are all in love with you?" |
5636 | He''d say,''What would she do without a G in the alphabet?'' |
5636 | Hermon?... |
5636 | How are you ever going to get another such chance to make a hit?" |
5636 | How can you expect to get the vote on tea and buns?" |
5636 | How could they thwart their own sister; and in any case what would Dudley ever see in it but a persecution that would intensify his affection? |
5636 | How do you know I shall not bring the colours, and wave them wildly down the street, shouting''Votes for Women''?" |
5636 | How have you fared?" |
5636 | How is Sir Edwin? |
5636 | How many interviews shall you be having with her?" |
5636 | How shall I let you know if I change my mind?" |
5636 | How should she know, particularly if that artful monkey did not want her to? |
5636 | How they dare? |
5636 | How was Doris?" |
5636 | How was he to keep his freshness, when temptation hemmed him in on every side? |
5636 | How''s Johnnie? |
5636 | I do n''t think you do quite suggest a musician?" |
5636 | I have even dreamt she managed to put a motor bonnet on in half- an- hour- is it conceivable- or should it be half a day?" |
5636 | I hope you''re not?..." |
5636 | I love you? |
5636 | I mean romance... why not do it thouroughly? |
5636 | I only hope you have n''t made another engagement for Sunday? |
5636 | I shall expect you again soon, Alymer- I may call you Alymer, may n''t I?... |
5636 | I suppose you have n''t bothered to go and see her lately to cheer her up? |
5636 | I suppose you know it? |
5636 | I want to know which day next week?" |
5636 | I was curious to find out how I should enjoy an afternoon with you?" |
5636 | I wonder how soon_ he''d_ become a gargoyle? |
5636 | I wonder how you will each end? |
5636 | I wonder if it is anything the same again? |
5636 | I wonder if you will recognise me quickly? |
5636 | I wonder what you have a leaning towards?" |
5636 | I''d like to know what is anything, if he''s nothing?" |
5636 | I''m putting you in now,"scribbling on;"but I do n''t know your name?" |
5636 | IL do n''t seem much the worse for either encounter, do I? |
5636 | If I am old enough to be your father, it does n''t follow that I''m too old to be your lover?" |
5636 | If I am to realise my dream, how should I not be happy? |
5636 | If he is to be left without you, what will he have then to make up for the great moment lost? |
5636 | If he rang her up presently what was she going to say? |
5636 | If it were n''t for you, what in the world should I do now?... |
5636 | If one has sinned, and led another astray, might an act of renunciation perhaps save that other from the consequences of the sin that was not his?" |
5636 | If only Dudley had cared for her? |
5636 | If she ever knew of that, what must her indignation and scorn be then?... |
5636 | If she waited a little longer, a richer man might turn up?... |
5636 | If they did, who need know, or who, at any rate, need gossip? |
5636 | If they dreamed over a volcano, what of it? |
5636 | In the meantime why worry, in a world that it would seem worked out its own ends, sublimely indifferent to the individual? |
5636 | Is Lorraine Vivian the actress? |
5636 | Is he all right?" |
5636 | Is her ladyship, the onion, weeping upon the cabbage''s lordly bosom? |
5636 | Is it necessary to discuss anything else?" |
5636 | Is it the faithless swain?" |
5636 | Is it the same with men too? |
5636 | Is it your advancing success, or what? |
5636 | Is it your brother? |
5636 | Is n''t Dick coming in?" |
5636 | Is n''t that so, Baby? |
5636 | Is she any happier?" |
5636 | Is she going to stay to dinner?" |
5636 | Is she, by any chance, a chorus girl?" |
5636 | Is that the truth?" |
5636 | Is the onion or the mangel- wurzel to be your hero?" |
5636 | Is there a train anywhere near?" |
5636 | Is there any reason why Doris should not be invited to the theatre?" |
5636 | Is there any reason why I should n''t have tea with Mr. Hermon, if it amuses me?" |
5636 | Is there anything else you would like to know?" |
5636 | Is_ he_ going to stay to dinner, Lorraine?"" |
5636 | It could not be true; why worry? |
5636 | It was all quite simple, and she went to bed feeling rested and refreshed, and looking forward hopefully for the pleasant meetings to come? |
5636 | It''s been such a splendid day, has n''t it?" |
5636 | It''s idiotic of me, is n''t it? |
5636 | It''s no use talking about it, is it? |
5636 | It''s worry again; and she is looking thoroughly ill.""Why again?..." |
5636 | Just fancy if you had a sister like Doris Hayward, can you imagine anything tamer?" |
5636 | Let me come and see if I can help?" |
5636 | Lorraine looked up instantly with an eager, questioning glance- while Hal asked gaily:"What is it?... |
5636 | Mastering his unmanageable senses with an effort, he looked up again, and said:"Well, what is it? |
5636 | May I tell him to expect you to tea to- morrow?" |
5636 | May I?" |
5636 | My dear girl, why should I put myself out to acquire a brief for a rival?" |
5636 | Neither spoke for a moment, and then Miss Walton remarked:"You do not mean to be guided by me in this matter?" |
5636 | Noew, what have you to say?" |
5636 | Now, then, when will you come again?" |
5636 | Of a truth he was unspoilt yet, unspoilt and splendid as the dawn of the morning- but for how long? |
5636 | Of course he is generally fathering and brothering and mothering you as well as doctoring?" |
5636 | Of course he would ring her up again the next day, and then what was she to say? |
5636 | Of course if you''d rather be Apollo-""Good Lord, no: is that the only alternative?" |
5636 | Of course she must be fond of him, or she would not do it; but then he was fond of her too- very fond- and why not? |
5636 | Of course they could n''t stop where they were, he argued; but how, with a girl of Hal''s practical level- headedness get any farther? |
5636 | Oh, do you understand, Dudley? |
5636 | Oh, what did it matter? |
5636 | Or was it a physical allurement- the irresistible charm of bigness and strength, independent of anything else, drawing with its time- old sway? |
5636 | People who always think they are the only ones to work are very tiring; do n''t you think so?" |
5636 | Perhaps make you all the splendid man you might be, just for some one else, and get nothing myself but a heart- ache?" |
5636 | Ritz or Carlton?" |
5636 | Shall I ask him to come and pray, that peace may be given to the sick mind?" |
5636 | Shall I begin with a humble apology?" |
5636 | Shall I bring myself in, and dig up the dear old chestnut of David and Jonathan?... |
5636 | Shall I paint my face black?" |
5636 | Shall I put down shooting? |
5636 | Shall I run?... |
5636 | Shall we go to the drawing- room?" |
5636 | Shall we go to the lounge?" |
5636 | Shall we say the Piccadilly, for a change, at 1.30?" |
5636 | Shall we turn now, and go back by Rottingdean?" |
5636 | Shall you come and sit with us?" |
5636 | She grasped both Lorraine''s hands in hers and said resolutely:"Why are you crying, Lorry?" |
5636 | She leaned her head down on her hand, and wondered a little pitifully:"Why had the best she had ever known come to her too late?" |
5636 | She never seems to have any pleasure, does she? |
5636 | She spoke of Hal, and he immediately exclaimed:"Hal is a ripper, is n''t she? |
5636 | She was silent a few moments, and then said suddenly;"Do you know Sir Edwin Crathie, Lorraine?" |
5636 | She was silent, and after a pause he added:"I suppose it is Sir Edwin?" |
5636 | Should she make a bold bid to win that much from the years that were left? |
5636 | Sir Edwin Crathie?" |
5636 | Sir Edwin, and his secret bitterness? |
5636 | So now- when will you come again?" |
5636 | Some day you will see; unless... unles...""Well, unless what?" |
5636 | Still? |
5636 | Supposing the second miscarries and you do n''t get bored?" |
5636 | Surely Baby did n''t think it at all out by himself, and actually go into a shop and buy them?" |
5636 | Surely you know what he is? |
5636 | Tell me, were you fully determined not to speak to me on the telephone, and not to see me again?" |
5636 | The Right Honourable Sir Edwin Crathie?" |
5636 | The instant they met, Hal saw the change in him, and exclaimed in surprise:"Have n''t you had a holiday? |
5636 | Then I suppose you will go to Lorraine?" |
5636 | Then he said quietly:"Do you know that it may wreck my future to leave London to- night?" |
5636 | Then, after a pause:"Could n''t I meet you there about three?" |
5636 | There must surely be a train from somewhere?" |
5636 | There''s no harm in a kiss, is there?" |
5636 | They were going to be the best of pals- why not- and why seek to probe any further? |
5636 | This is very harmless, and I''ve been exceedingly good for a long time, now, have n''t I?" |
5636 | To what end?... |
5636 | True, the world was at her feet now, just as much as it would ever be at his, but with what a difference? |
5636 | Was Brother Dudley very angry?" |
5636 | Was it possible he thought his life would need no other help and comfort but that of a charming exterior in his wife?" |
5636 | Was it possible he was indeed so base as to love her and tell her in the very same week that he had asked another woman to be his wife? |
5636 | Was it possible she wanted to bring the shadows and dim its silver radiance for her own gratifications? |
5636 | Was it so small a thing to help a fine soul forward to its best attainment?... |
5636 | Was it the depth of her splendid friendship; or was it a naturally adaptable, common- sense nature; or was it non- comprehension? |
5636 | Was it?" |
5636 | Was that perhaps the very secret of his attraction? |
5636 | We might have dinner at a restaurant first; shall we?" |
5636 | Well, how''s East London?... |
5636 | Well, if she comes back suddenly will you ask her to''phone me? |
5636 | Well, what of it? |
5636 | Well?" |
5636 | Were they all then in the maelstrom of this gloomy sense of an engulfing cloud? |
5636 | Were you a prodigal as a kid? |
5636 | What I should like to know is, did you agree to come here on this errand, knowing who I was?" |
5636 | What a grotesque figurehead she looks, chum, does n''t she? |
5636 | What about the first time we met?" |
5636 | What are you going to do now?" |
5636 | What are you going to do?" |
5636 | What can any child have better than a life''s devotion?" |
5636 | What chance had she ever had, long as she might, to keep the morning freshness? |
5636 | What could Rod and I have done with £ 500 a year?" |
5636 | What could be the good of disfiguring a beautiful world with all these vacant, expressionless, hopeless masks? |
5636 | What could be the meaning of Doris''s behaviour? |
5636 | What could have happened to upset her so? |
5636 | What could have happened?... |
5636 | What could it mean? |
5636 | What did anything matter but that he had loved her so long and faithfully; and that at last she loved him? |
5636 | What did he care for their approval?" |
5636 | What did she want with a companion so undeveloped that she herself must awaken his strongest forces? |
5636 | What did she, on her high pedestal, want with his young admiration? |
5636 | What did the other women matter? |
5636 | What did you care for my youth or my future? |
5636 | What did you think, Hal?" |
5636 | What difference has it made between you and me anyhow?... |
5636 | What difference need it make? |
5636 | What dit it all mean? |
5636 | What do I want with amends from such as you?" |
5636 | What do other men like you care? |
5636 | What do you mean?" |
5636 | What does it matter? |
5636 | What does it mean?" |
5636 | What does the rest matter between you and me?" |
5636 | What else should I ask her for?" |
5636 | What had she- Lorraines- to place against that great fact? |
5636 | What has Sir Edwin done to hurt you?" |
5636 | What has happened?" |
5636 | What has he ever been to you?" |
5636 | What have I done?" |
5636 | What have you to do with Holloway, and shabbiness, and starving people? |
5636 | What if the wheels ran so smoothly for him that the latent forces were never aroused, and little achieved of all that might be? |
5636 | What in the world are you going to the Albert Hall for? |
5636 | What in the world more do you want? |
5636 | What in the world will Dudley say?" |
5636 | What is he to you anyway? |
5636 | What is it to you anyhow? |
5636 | What is the actress''s name, did you say?" |
5636 | What is the matter with the rest of us?" |
5636 | What is the use of talking like that now?... |
5636 | What is this tale about Thursday night? |
5636 | What is your alternative?" |
5636 | What is your favourite hors d''oeuvre? |
5636 | What need for more? |
5636 | What of Dudley and his hopeless love? |
5636 | What shall I do?... |
5636 | What shall you do with yourself? |
5636 | What should I have? |
5636 | What was in his mind? |
5636 | What was it Hal had said that evening before she left? |
5636 | What was it made him dally thus upon dangerous ground? |
5636 | What was it made him speak to Lorraine as he had never spoken before, on the very day after his mother''s admonition? |
5636 | What was it that gave her that strange sense of heartache to- night? |
5636 | What was she to do?... |
5636 | What was this gossip about Doris? |
5636 | What was this insistent, nameless fear at her own heart? |
5636 | What will be the result, do you think, if you refuse to listen, and perhaps ruin his prospects for your own pleasure?" |
5636 | What''s the matter?" |
5636 | What, after all, was size? |
5636 | What_ are_ you doing?" |
5636 | When Hal looked blankly into his face, as if quite unable to tell him, he added hurriedly:"Is your letter about Ethel? |
5636 | When do n''t you like me?" |
5636 | When she first entered his room so unexpectedly, his eyes had searched her face as if he would read instantly what she had come for?... |
5636 | When she had lost them both, what would become of her then? |
5636 | When she was pulling her gloves on later she asked:"Why do n''t von take a week''s holiday and go into the country, Lorry?... |
5636 | When will you come again?" |
5636 | When will you come again?" |
5636 | When will you come for another ride?" |
5636 | When''s the happy man coming along?" |
5636 | Where is she to- day?" |
5636 | Where is the politician to- day who cares tuppence for anything but the main chance? |
5636 | Where is you child''s father?" |
5636 | Where shall we go?" |
5636 | Which would you rather I called them? |
5636 | Who are Quin and the Baby?" |
5636 | Who had ever cared whether she kept her armour bright and her colours flying high? |
5636 | Who is Quin?" |
5636 | Who is that?" |
5636 | Who shall we take? |
5636 | Who ventured to send you royal highness anything so homely as violets?" |
5636 | Why a nunnery?" |
5636 | Why all this secrecy?" |
5636 | Why ask any inconvenient questions and spoil it all? |
5636 | Why ask her at all? |
5636 | Why bother to ask questions? |
5636 | Why did Alymer Hermon''s fine, boyish, refreshing face come so often to her mind? |
5636 | Why did he so steadily pursue, as far as she was concerned, his serene and passionless path? |
5636 | Why did n''t you invite Ethel instead? |
5636 | Why did n''t you let me come here instead of going to Norway?" |
5636 | Why did n''t you tell me? |
5636 | Why did you go to America?... |
5636 | Why had he not left things as they were, and refrained both from the kiss and the confession? |
5636 | Why had he of all men been caught by a pretty face? |
5636 | Why had her usual companions bored and irritated her? |
5636 | Why have n''t I known you all my life? |
5636 | Why is he in such a hurry?" |
5636 | Why may n''t I come in?" |
5636 | Why need any one know? |
5636 | Why not give Fate a chance to endow him quickly with the rich, blessed love that kept a man walking straight and strong along his steadfast way? |
5636 | Why not give life a chance to leave him so? |
5636 | Why not go at once, before you get any weaker?" |
5636 | Why not go on the same a little longer?" |
5636 | Why not now? |
5636 | Why not to some little French place? |
5636 | Why not?" |
5636 | Why not?" |
5636 | Why probe?... |
5636 | Why reason? |
5636 | Why should I? |
5636 | Why should anything be the matter?" |
5636 | Why should he? |
5636 | Why should it, since he had waited no encoouragement before he gave her all? |
5636 | Why should mankind be represented by babies? |
5636 | Why should n''t I kiss you? |
5636 | Why should you scorn me?... |
5636 | Why stop to question or demur? |
5636 | Why was Lorraine weeping when she found her yesterday? |
5636 | Why was trouble steadily gathering on Ethel''s face? |
5636 | Why, in the name of goodness, is she not acting this winter?" |
5636 | Why, in the tube railway, did all these people about her look so white and tired and lifeless? |
5636 | Why, she wondered, did he not seriously contemplate coming? |
5636 | Why?" |
5636 | Why?..." |
5636 | Will Dudley be at home?" |
5636 | Will you be there at five, near the Archway?" |
5636 | Will you come again soon?" |
5636 | Will you come on Wednesday? |
5636 | Will you come some afternoon, about half- past four?" |
5636 | Will you come up this evening?" |
5636 | Will you come?" |
5636 | Will you come?" |
5636 | Will you come?" |
5636 | Will you come?" |
5636 | Will you fetch me?" |
5636 | With a caressing hand on the sick woman''s, Hal asked in a low voice:"Why is n''t he here taking care of you now? |
5636 | Without money, without influence, without rich friends, what did the world at large hold for her? |
5636 | Wo n''t you go down to his room?" |
5636 | Would any other man she knew have ridden beside her thus after the gentleness she had shown? |
5636 | Would it not indeed separate them for ever? |
5636 | Would n''t every second man you know in my place act exactly as I am acting? |
5636 | Would she, perhaps, now that she had given him his start, cut all the friendship off for his good, and return to her old friends and admirers? |
5636 | Would you care to come too?" |
5636 | Would you care to go to the White City with me on Thursday evening?" |
5636 | Yet as she struggled to collect her thoughts and form plans, she was conscious of a dumb, nervous cry:"What will Dudley say?... |
5636 | Yet, how could she? |
5636 | You do care a little; do n''t you?" |
5636 | You do n''t propose to take my advice and run away from it?" |
5636 | You surely did n''t suppose I had forgotten you- did you?" |
5636 | You surely do n''t mean to tell me he interests you?" |
5636 | You will help me, wo n''t you?" |
5636 | You''ll keep an eye on her, wo n''t you? |
5636 | You''ve seen him grave yourself, have n''t you now?" |
5636 | and who is Lady Selon?" |
5636 | and you''re not at all polite, are you?" |
5636 | do n''t I?" |
5636 | do n''t tell me it did n''t hurt after... after-""Oh yes, it hurt,"with a low, bitter laugh;"but what of that eiter? |
5636 | is it possible you would like me to say it?" |
5636 | murmured the elderly beau,"so the young scamp has got entangled with an actress, has he? |
5636 | or living with her? |
5636 | or say that it snapped a trace in half which cost two guineas, and was bought in Bond Street?" |
5636 | or taking any part in her success?" |
5636 | or... shall I stay, and snatch joy, while there is still time?" |
5636 | said Ethel, with a little smothered gasp,"you do n''t mind if I laugh, do you? |
5636 | she asked, a little hoarsely? |
5636 | she breathed, and Hal, on her knees by the couch, in an unsteady voice replied:"Oh, why did n''t you send for me sooner? |
5636 | she breathed;"yes, why not? |
5636 | she hinted,"and that you have already far overstepped the allowance we stipulated?" |
5636 | the gaunt music- teacher and her barren, joyless life? |
5636 | was her thought,"and how in the world am I to convince Dudley that Lorraine does not represent a receptacle for all the deadly sins? |
5636 | was such an aim not worth some going aside for both? |
5636 | what a scene there will be if he hears about it; but what''s the odds so long as you''re happy? |
5636 | what am I to do?" |
5636 | what she had learnt?... |
5636 | which of''em''s yer sweet''eart?" |
5636 | who knows?... |
5636 | would n''t he? |
47319 | Am I fit for any man? |
47319 | Am I fit for any man? |
47319 | Spend it? 47319 Why so?" |
47319 | ''6A Danes Inn?'' |
47319 | ''A good thumping one, is n''t it, Airey?'' |
47319 | ''A lot more?'' |
47319 | ''A mark?'' |
47319 | ''A shilling?'' |
47319 | ''A word with me, Mervyn? |
47319 | ''About those little hints of yours? |
47319 | ''Ah, it''s always had to be just what you wanted, has n''t it? |
47319 | ''Airey Newton?'' |
47319 | ''Airey did?'' |
47319 | ''Airey, you''ll see her soon?'' |
47319 | ''All of them?'' |
47319 | ''All right? |
47319 | ''All right?'' |
47319 | ''All that?'' |
47319 | ''All what? |
47319 | ''Am I not most amiable to Mr. Fricker, and Mrs., and Miss?'' |
47319 | ''Am I to be treated like Fricker? |
47319 | ''And Beaufort Chance?'' |
47319 | ''And I daresay you do n''t mind hearing of a good thing if it comes in your way?'' |
47319 | ''And I suppose you''re going to begin about that wretched promise again? |
47319 | ''And Mrs. Trevalla is free of Glowing Stars? |
47319 | ''And how could such a woman as I am make any man better?'' |
47319 | ''And how was our friend Lady Blixworth?'' |
47319 | ''And how''s old Mervyn? |
47319 | ''And it works well?'' |
47319 | ''And she has n''t come either?'' |
47319 | ''And that finishes our business, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''And that was what you wanted your five hundred for?'' |
47319 | ''And the public interest? |
47319 | ''And the whole thing''s finished?'' |
47319 | ''And then you have plenty of fun?'' |
47319 | ''And what are we going to do?'' |
47319 | ''And what did he do? |
47319 | ''And what had I?'' |
47319 | ''And what will you do about the other man?'' |
47319 | ''And what''s to be the end of it with you?'' |
47319 | ''And where is she?'' |
47319 | ''And where''s dear Audrey?'' |
47319 | ''And who''s in love with you?'' |
47319 | ''And you bought Mr. Fricker off? |
47319 | ''And you can forget the failure and the shame?'' |
47319 | ''And you listened?'' |
47319 | ''And you live here?'' |
47319 | ''And you said no?'' |
47319 | ''And you want me to take care of it again?'' |
47319 | ''And you want me to take the risk on myself? |
47319 | ''And you''ll go soon?'' |
47319 | ''And you''re acting on that?'' |
47319 | ''And your poor wife?'' |
47319 | ''Any man she liked or had liked, you know?'' |
47319 | ''Any public men?'' |
47319 | ''Anyhow what''s the use of talking about it? |
47319 | ''Are cheques out of fashion, Miss Ryle?'' |
47319 | ''Are n''t these things in your mother''s department, Connie?'' |
47319 | ''Are n''t they for her too? |
47319 | ''Are you Bohemian?'' |
47319 | ''Are you Trix''s ambassador?'' |
47319 | ''Are you afraid of the responsibility?'' |
47319 | ''Are you enjoying yourself, Airey?'' |
47319 | ''Are you finding new words for love?'' |
47319 | ''Are you going to stand it? |
47319 | ''Are you going to throw yourself at Fricker''s feet, and ask him to give Trix''s money back?'' |
47319 | ''Are you going to work? |
47319 | ''Are you liking it, Airey?'' |
47319 | ''Are you sure? |
47319 | ''Are you two men telling anything like the truth?'' |
47319 | ''Are you waiting for me?'' |
47319 | ''Are you-- can you actually----?'' |
47319 | ''Are-- are greed and-- nonsense the only things you know?'' |
47319 | ''At not having it for nothing, I suppose? |
47319 | ''Bad luck, George? |
47319 | ''Because the drawing- room''s upholstered in red, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''Because you''re not the sort of girl to let a man----''''Then why do n''t you let go of my arm?'' |
47319 | ''Business done, old fellow? |
47319 | ''But I''m forced to ask you,''she continued with overriding imperturbability,''by what right you concern yourself in my affairs?'' |
47319 | ''But could the man do anything for her?'' |
47319 | ''But do n''t you think you were taking a liberty-- an enormous liberty? |
47319 | ''But if he never told you, and some day you found out?'' |
47319 | ''But if she never found it out?'' |
47319 | ''But if you tell mamma now----''''We upset the apple- cart, do we, Connie?'' |
47319 | ''But she would have?'' |
47319 | ''But should n''t she have the truth once? |
47319 | ''But the liability?'' |
47319 | ''But what about all the things for me?'' |
47319 | ''But what good could that do him?'' |
47319 | ''But what motive have I? |
47319 | ''But what?'' |
47319 | ''But who is she? |
47319 | ''But why only tea?'' |
47319 | ''But, I say, Peggy----''''Was n''t it just splendid that he should come then?'' |
47319 | ''But, I say, what''s happened, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Ca n''t I?'' |
47319 | ''Can one be taught to be different?'' |
47319 | ''Can you teach me, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Come now, where do you live?'' |
47319 | ''Could everything else seem perfect?'' |
47319 | ''Could n''t we go and dine?'' |
47319 | ''Could n''t you give her a hint? |
47319 | ''Could n''t you manage to convey that it was nobody''s fault in particular? |
47319 | ''Could you say you understood her feelings-- or, at any rate, allowed for them?'' |
47319 | ''Did I say that? |
47319 | ''Did I?'' |
47319 | ''Did n''t you lead me to suppose you liked me?'' |
47319 | ''Did n''t you suggest it all? |
47319 | ''Did we settle that you were to call me Trix?'' |
47319 | ''Did you ever think of anything like this?'' |
47319 | ''Did you mean it all the time?'' |
47319 | ''Did you tell her where it came from?'' |
47319 | ''Do n''t you get into any difficulties?'' |
47319 | ''Do n''t you remember being reviewed under the heading of"The Young Ravens"?'' |
47319 | ''Do n''t you see, Airey; do n''t you see?'' |
47319 | ''Do n''t you think it possible you might be in a difficulty some day?'' |
47319 | ''Do you generally find us differing?'' |
47319 | ''Do you know about----?'' |
47319 | ''Do you like him, Connie?'' |
47319 | ''Do you live, as you call it?'' |
47319 | ''Do you live?'' |
47319 | ''Do you mean he''d make money for me?'' |
47319 | ''Do you mean that I''m to forgive her?'' |
47319 | ''Do you press me as to that?'' |
47319 | ''Do you really mean I''m to say nothing?'' |
47319 | ''Do you really suppose,''he asked,''that old Fricker will disgorge three thousand pounds?'' |
47319 | ''Do you suppose I should ever willingly speak to you again?'' |
47319 | ''Do you suppose''( Connie''s face looked out of the other side of the cab)''that if I had n''t been awfully fond of you----?'' |
47319 | ''Do you think she''d give me a cup of tea?'' |
47319 | ''Do you think there''s another man?'' |
47319 | ''Does Beaufort think well of it?'' |
47319 | ''Does Mortimer feel like that too?'' |
47319 | ''Does Mr. Childwick mind?'' |
47319 | ''Does Mrs. Trevalla count much one way or the other?'' |
47319 | ''Does it make all that difference?'' |
47319 | ''Does it make no difference? |
47319 | ''Does it mean his seat as well as his place?'' |
47319 | ''Does n''t it strike you that she might forgive him what she would n''t forgive us?'' |
47319 | ''Does n''t the hansom present a difficulty?'' |
47319 | ''Does she know you''re telling me this?'' |
47319 | ''Does that do instead?'' |
47319 | ''Does that give you no hint of our mistake? |
47319 | ''Does that say nothing to you?'' |
47319 | ''Dramoffskys?'' |
47319 | ''End? |
47319 | ''Even this palace, and Glowing Stars, and being the laughing- stock of London have n''t tamed you?'' |
47319 | ''Frock had n''t come home, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''From the midst of the whirl?'' |
47319 | ''Generally?'' |
47319 | ''Girls are supposed not to see anything, are n''t they?'' |
47319 | ''Giving ourselves out?'' |
47319 | ''Glowing Stars? |
47319 | ''Going to force your way into her bedroom? |
47319 | ''Going to live on what you''ve got?'' |
47319 | ''Good news or bad? |
47319 | ''Gossip, I daresay, but who knows? |
47319 | ''Guessed it, did you?'' |
47319 | ''Has Peggy been up to mischief again?'' |
47319 | ''Has n''t it been a wonderful day? |
47319 | ''Has she got the money?'' |
47319 | ''Have I said a great deal?'' |
47319 | ''Have you anything quite definite-- besides the speculation, I mean?'' |
47319 | ''Have you anything that you think I sha''n''t like to tell me about Trix Trevalla?'' |
47319 | ''Have you anywhere else you want to go?'' |
47319 | ''Have you asked her? |
47319 | ''Have you ever had two people in love with you at the same time?'' |
47319 | ''Have you got an idea that you''ve done something clever?'' |
47319 | ''Have you got to pay too?'' |
47319 | ''Have you half a crown, Tommy?'' |
47319 | ''Have you heard of her being in any difficulty?'' |
47319 | ''Have you plenty of time?'' |
47319 | ''Have you spoken to him?'' |
47319 | ''Have you thought of anything else?'' |
47319 | ''He must have proved that he needs quite a different wife from Trix, and where could he find one more different?'' |
47319 | ''He said that?'' |
47319 | ''He''d be surprised to see us together here, would n''t he?'' |
47319 | ''Here?'' |
47319 | ''How can I tell, my dear? |
47319 | ''How can you help it? |
47319 | ''How could I love him?'' |
47319 | ''How could I?'' |
47319 | ''How could you be anything else, living here?'' |
47319 | ''How dare you?'' |
47319 | ''How did he come to be so foolish?'' |
47319 | ''How did you find out?'' |
47319 | ''How did you manage that?'' |
47319 | ''How does she strike you?'' |
47319 | ''How is Mortimer?'' |
47319 | ''How much do men love women?'' |
47319 | ''How much does Liffey know?'' |
47319 | ''How much have I escaped, and how much have I lost?'' |
47319 | ''How much money has he got?'' |
47319 | ''How soon are we to have a look- in, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''How the devil did you do it?'' |
47319 | ''How will you take it?'' |
47319 | ''How?'' |
47319 | ''I am, am I? |
47319 | ''I beg your pardon, Chance, may I have a word with you?'' |
47319 | ''I beg your pardon, Viola?'' |
47319 | ''I broke two promises----''''Two?'' |
47319 | ''I can trust you to do what you said you would?'' |
47319 | ''I could n''t wear mourning all my life, could I?'' |
47319 | ''I expect you do; lots of frocks, eh, and jewels, and so on?'' |
47319 | ''I have n''t seen you dancing with Chance-- or perhaps you sat out? |
47319 | ''I hope you have n''t found me very dull, Miss Ryle?'' |
47319 | ''I hope you''ve amused one another all this time?'' |
47319 | ''I mean, when you invent a-- a-- well, say a corkscrew, they give you something?'' |
47319 | ''I meant to stay with you, and perhaps to take you out to dinner----''''Well, why wo n''t you? |
47319 | ''I presume you are n''t interested in international politics as such?'' |
47319 | ''I shall hear what''s up afterwards?'' |
47319 | ''I shall make a lot, sha''n''t I?'' |
47319 | ''I should n''t wonder if you loved a fandango too?'' |
47319 | ''I suppose it would n''t do to have a song, Tommy?'' |
47319 | ''I suppose that idea always does console the other men? |
47319 | ''I suppose you get some money for your things sometimes?'' |
47319 | ''I thought it was a franc?'' |
47319 | ''I took your coming as a bad omen,''said Airey, smiling;''but I hope there''s nothing very wrong?'' |
47319 | ''I''m afraid I''m bothering you? |
47319 | ''I''m so sorry if I said anything wrong; but, oh, surely, there''s no truth in the report that you''re----?'' |
47319 | ''If Fricker fell, and I have fallen, who is Tommy Trent?'' |
47319 | ''If he loved you?'' |
47319 | ''If he never told her at all, would that be fair?'' |
47319 | ''If it came to the point, you''d stand by him and let me go?'' |
47319 | ''If she''d come in when I did-- eh, Connie?'' |
47319 | ''If the philosophy is great and true, is there to be no credit for the teacher?'' |
47319 | ''If we all knew all about one another, should we ever pay visits?'' |
47319 | ''If you knew the worst of him and would still look for something good-- something you could love and could use to make the rest better? |
47319 | ''If you wore the Koh- i- Noor should I ask you where you got it?'' |
47319 | ''If you''d really been a very poor man, as we all believed you were, would you ever have thought it wise or possible to marry a woman like me?'' |
47319 | ''In here?'' |
47319 | ''In return, what?'' |
47319 | ''In the hansom?'' |
47319 | ''Is Airey here?'' |
47319 | ''Is he prepared to put that down immediately?'' |
47319 | ''Is it a great change?'' |
47319 | ''Is it a-- an enthusiastic telegram?'' |
47319 | ''Is it good luck or bad luck for Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Is it ourselves or the world?'' |
47319 | ''Is it quite fair?'' |
47319 | ''Is it there still?'' |
47319 | ''Is it-- is it all right?'' |
47319 | ''Is it?'' |
47319 | ''Is n''t it kind of her?'' |
47319 | ''Is n''t it splendid?'' |
47319 | ''Is n''t she a picture, Arty? |
47319 | ''Is n''t there another room?'' |
47319 | ''Is she a new flame of Tommy''s?'' |
47319 | ''Is that all you wanted to say? |
47319 | ''Is that indifference-- or fidelity?'' |
47319 | ''Is that where we''re to pick up the other passenger?'' |
47319 | ''Is the cab there?'' |
47319 | ''Is the man in love with you?'' |
47319 | ''Is there any chance?'' |
47319 | ''Is there really any philosophy in it, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Is this a_ séance_?'' |
47319 | ''It is rather nice, is n''t it? |
47319 | ''It is to be Mortimer?'' |
47319 | ''It seems from the letter that they can go on making her pay money?'' |
47319 | ''It sounds as if it meant to keep whatever it gets, does n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''It would n''t be so bad, would it?'' |
47319 | ''It''ll be the first dinner- party he''s ever given,''whispered Peggy excitedly, and she added to Tommy,''Are you going to order it, Tommy?'' |
47319 | ''It''s beautiful here in summer, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''It''s better not to trust to memory, however great confidence we may have in one another, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''It''s no use trying to-- to beat you down, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''It''s not you that''s going in, is it?'' |
47319 | ''It''s rather unconventional, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''It''s understood that you do n''t worry Trix any more?'' |
47319 | ''It''s very tiring work, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''Magnifique?'' |
47319 | ''May I stay to- night?'' |
47319 | ''May n''t we even sit in the hall?'' |
47319 | ''May we congratulate you yet?'' |
47319 | ''Might do worse, and perhaps should n''t do much better, eh?'' |
47319 | ''Mind?'' |
47319 | ''Miss Ryle comes? |
47319 | ''Miss Ryle there? |
47319 | ''Miss Ryle told you that? |
47319 | ''Money?'' |
47319 | ''More than what you said to that man?'' |
47319 | ''Must you really? |
47319 | ''My God, child, have you got the money?'' |
47319 | ''My charity? |
47319 | ''New frock?'' |
47319 | ''No bad news in your letter, I hope?'' |
47319 | ''No reason, I think?'' |
47319 | ''No, but could n''t you?'' |
47319 | ''No, but you must have meant that there was a glimmer of hope?'' |
47319 | ''No, you''ve got nothing,''he said at last;''but supposing I say I do n''t mind that?'' |
47319 | ''No?'' |
47319 | ''Nor Childwick? |
47319 | ''Nor a stable perhaps?'' |
47319 | ''Not Arty Kane?'' |
47319 | ''Not in Danes Inn?'' |
47319 | ''Now am I a judge? |
47319 | ''Now did I say anything of the kind?'' |
47319 | ''Now how did I know?'' |
47319 | ''Now look at Audrey Pollington-- you know that big niece of Viola''s? |
47319 | ''Now what''s the meaning of that?'' |
47319 | ''Now where to,_ mon Général_?'' |
47319 | ''Now, Tommy, which has come for you and which for me?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, how can you be so wrong as that?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, is it?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, it''s all nonsense anyhow, is n''t it, Miss Ryle? |
47319 | ''Oh, that''s what you want me to believe?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, what did she want? |
47319 | ''Oh, what does last night matter?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, what is love if it''s not that?'' |
47319 | ''Oh, work''s your propensity, is it?'' |
47319 | ''On business?'' |
47319 | ''On the quiet?'' |
47319 | ''On your honour do you know nothing about it? |
47319 | ''One-- two-- three-- four----''''Why should he ever stop?'' |
47319 | ''Or is it a case of cutting down expenses and retiring to the country?'' |
47319 | ''Or with people who are down?'' |
47319 | ''Peggy, am I never to get any forwarder?'' |
47319 | ''Perhaps you''ll let me send a note in, to say what my business is? |
47319 | ''Remarkable fellow, was n''t he? |
47319 | ''Say he was a swindler-- could you keep him straight? |
47319 | ''Seen anything of Mrs. Trevalla lately?'' |
47319 | ''Shall I do you credit?'' |
47319 | ''Shall I?'' |
47319 | ''Shall we stroll?'' |
47319 | ''She did n''t tell you any news, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''She''ll have to pay, or-- or try to pay----''''She''ll be liable to pay----''''Yes, liable to pay three thousand pounds altogether?'' |
47319 | ''She''s going to have tea with you?'' |
47319 | ''She''s great too?'' |
47319 | ''Shoved you off it?'' |
47319 | ''So far as possible from that quarter, good news, I hope?'' |
47319 | ''So if I say yes to you, and run away----?'' |
47319 | ''So will you wear the pearls?'' |
47319 | ''So you heard from Mr. Fricker to- day?'' |
47319 | ''So you''re out of work, eh? |
47319 | ''So you''ve come back, Miss Ryle?'' |
47319 | ''Some day? |
47319 | ''Spoil it all?'' |
47319 | ''Suppose I said yes? |
47319 | ''Suppose he was a churl-- could you open his heart?'' |
47319 | ''Suppose you loved a man who had one great-- well, one great devil in him? |
47319 | ''Taken it for the Maharajeer of Kopang, have they?'' |
47319 | ''That I----?'' |
47319 | ''That a recommendation to you?'' |
47319 | ''That means you''re in communication with Trix?'' |
47319 | ''That would be too gentle? |
47319 | ''That''s a bargain, is it?'' |
47319 | ''That''s all you can do?'' |
47319 | ''That''s better, Trix, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''That''s the little plan, is it?'' |
47319 | ''That''s the simplest thing, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''The Devil, is it? |
47319 | ''The attractions are so numerous, so unrivalled?'' |
47319 | ''The fire? |
47319 | ''The poor?'' |
47319 | ''The unforgivable? |
47319 | ''Then I shall nip in, you mean? |
47319 | ''Then on whose?'' |
47319 | ''Then she scuttled off?'' |
47319 | ''Then surely you must be in love with her?'' |
47319 | ''Then twenty thousand marks----?'' |
47319 | ''Then what will be the good of them to me?'' |
47319 | ''Then will you put it in writing, please?'' |
47319 | ''Then you''ve sold your Glowing Stars?'' |
47319 | ''Then, if you took them, the most you''d lose would be three thousand pounds, and you''d have a very good chance of losing less?'' |
47319 | ''There''s gossip about Beaufort, is there?'' |
47319 | ''These little fits of restiveness-- I do n''t mean in you-- are nothing, Connie? |
47319 | ''They''ve fixed it up?'' |
47319 | ''Three thousand five hundred pounds?'' |
47319 | ''Till my lord has made up his mind?'' |
47319 | ''To Danes Inn?'' |
47319 | ''Under_ where_?'' |
47319 | ''Was it Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Was it all yours or any of hers?'' |
47319 | ''Was n''t I walking beside you all the way?'' |
47319 | ''Was there never more than one aspirant at a time when you were young?'' |
47319 | ''We must have our rules kept, Peggy, else where should we be? |
47319 | ''We should be able to manage him between us, should we, after the event as well as before?'' |
47319 | ''We''re the world, I suppose, like other people, are n''t we? |
47319 | ''We''ve no business, have we, Mrs. Trevalla? |
47319 | ''Well, Airey, I suppose you have n''t heard anything that''s happening?'' |
47319 | ''Well, Connie, is he very happy?'' |
47319 | ''Well, I suppose life is n''t altogether at an end?'' |
47319 | ''Well, I''ve arrears to make up, have n''t I?'' |
47319 | ''Well, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Well, Peggy?'' |
47319 | ''Well, Trix?'' |
47319 | ''Well, and if he is, my dear?'' |
47319 | ''Well, anyhow,''she suggested, as a last resort,''suppose you brush them?'' |
47319 | ''Well, is the unforgivable forgiven?'' |
47319 | ''Well, then, that the mistake was in trying it at all? |
47319 | ''Well, things have turned out funnily, have n''t they? |
47319 | ''Well, was there any compulsion, Miss Ryle?'' |
47319 | ''Well, what do they want of me?'' |
47319 | ''Well, what have you got to say?'' |
47319 | ''Well, what have you got to say?'' |
47319 | ''Well, what have you to say to that?'' |
47319 | ''Well, who am I?'' |
47319 | ''Well, you need n''t tell her everything, need you?'' |
47319 | ''Well, you never were enthusiastic about the match, were you?'' |
47319 | ''Well, you saw me making myself pleasant?'' |
47319 | ''Well- meant, I know, Beaufort; but it does put people in awkward positions, does n''t it?'' |
47319 | ''Well-- certainly pretty; probably clever; perhaps---- Is she a friend of yours?'' |
47319 | ''Well?'' |
47319 | ''Well?'' |
47319 | ''Well?'' |
47319 | ''Well?'' |
47319 | ''Well?'' |
47319 | ''Were n''t they kind to you?'' |
47319 | ''Were you kicking your idol for me? |
47319 | ''Were you thinking of me?'' |
47319 | ''What are the shares worth?'' |
47319 | ''What are they doing all this time, Tommy?'' |
47319 | ''What are we to spend them on?'' |
47319 | ''What are you doing?'' |
47319 | ''What can Fricker do for you? |
47319 | ''What can have driven her mad at Barslett?'' |
47319 | ''What church?'' |
47319 | ''What did she say?'' |
47319 | ''What did you say he said?'' |
47319 | ''What did you write to her?'' |
47319 | ''What do I mean?'' |
47319 | ''What do you mean by that?'' |
47319 | ''What do you mean, papa?'' |
47319 | ''What do you mean? |
47319 | ''What do you want?'' |
47319 | ''What do you want?'' |
47319 | ''What does Sarah say?'' |
47319 | ''What does it matter who made it as long as you have it?'' |
47319 | ''What does she want us for?'' |
47319 | ''What does such a man mean by love?'' |
47319 | ''What does the fellow mean?'' |
47319 | ''What else, Airey dear?'' |
47319 | ''What else?'' |
47319 | ''What from?'' |
47319 | ''What has Mrs. Bonfill been saying about me?'' |
47319 | ''What have I done that you should give me this?'' |
47319 | ''What if I think only of myself too?'' |
47319 | ''What in the world do you do it for?'' |
47319 | ''What is he thinking?'' |
47319 | ''What is it then?'' |
47319 | ''What is it you want?'' |
47319 | ''What is it? |
47319 | ''What is it?'' |
47319 | ''What letter?'' |
47319 | ''What makes you think she''d have him?'' |
47319 | ''What more is there to do?'' |
47319 | ''What of my essay?'' |
47319 | ''What of my poem?'' |
47319 | ''What other explanation is there?'' |
47319 | ''What right had you to turn me into a beggar, to make me take your money, to think I''d live on your charity?'' |
47319 | ''What should I say?'' |
47319 | ''What should you say,''she asked at last,''if I ever changed?'' |
47319 | ''What the deuce are you talking about?'' |
47319 | ''What the deuce has that got to do with it?'' |
47319 | ''What time is it?'' |
47319 | ''What was all that Beaufort had to say to you?'' |
47319 | ''What way do you mean?'' |
47319 | ''What would you have done, then?'' |
47319 | ''What you could n''t have forgiven Tommy, or Peggy, or anybody? |
47319 | ''What''s happened?'' |
47319 | ''What''s inside?'' |
47319 | ''What''s the hurry about?'' |
47319 | ''What''s the matter with you both?'' |
47319 | ''What''s the matter with you to- day?'' |
47319 | ''What''s the matter, dear?'' |
47319 | ''What''s the matter?'' |
47319 | ''What, Peggy? |
47319 | ''What, not with you and me? |
47319 | ''What, reconstruct all your theories----?'' |
47319 | ''What, you''re not tamed yet?'' |
47319 | ''What? |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''What?'' |
47319 | ''When is something else going to begin, Tommy? |
47319 | ''When was it sent you?'' |
47319 | ''When you were a boy, were you afraid of your father and mother?'' |
47319 | ''When?'' |
47319 | ''Where are our hats, Tommy?'' |
47319 | ''Where did you get the money from?'' |
47319 | ''Where had you been going to dine?'' |
47319 | ''Where have they gone? |
47319 | ''Where in the world is Danes Inn?'' |
47319 | ''Where is she now?'' |
47319 | ''Where is she?'' |
47319 | ''Where?'' |
47319 | ''Where?'' |
47319 | ''Which of them?'' |
47319 | ''Who are Brown, Jones, and Robinson?'' |
47319 | ''Who are the two men?'' |
47319 | ''Who are you, ma''am? |
47319 | ''Who cares, if you''ll come?'' |
47319 | ''Who have? |
47319 | ''Who is he?'' |
47319 | ''Who is she, then?'' |
47319 | ''Who paid the money? |
47319 | ''Who''s talking about tragedies?'' |
47319 | ''Who''s to pay the cab?'' |
47319 | ''Whom have you heard it from?'' |
47319 | ''Whom is it from?'' |
47319 | ''Whose half- crown on whose piano?'' |
47319 | ''Whose money did you give Mr. Fricker to buy me off?'' |
47319 | ''Whose?'' |
47319 | ''Whose?'' |
47319 | ''Why ca n''t I be angry with you?'' |
47319 | ''Why did n''t he mention you?'' |
47319 | ''Why did you try to get away?'' |
47319 | ''Why do n''t you go and congratulate her?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you ask me about her?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you do it?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you do that?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you have him here?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you suppose he interested himself in your affairs?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you think I know about such things?'' |
47319 | ''Why do you think she''s unscrupulous?'' |
47319 | ''Why have you been going to the Moresby- Jenkinses''and the Eli- Simpkinsons'', and places of that sort?'' |
47319 | ''Why not shut it?'' |
47319 | ''Why not?'' |
47319 | ''Why not?'' |
47319 | ''Why should n''t I be?'' |
47319 | ''Why should you play tricks on me? |
47319 | ''Why the deuce ca n''t we just like''em?'' |
47319 | ''Why? |
47319 | ''Why?'' |
47319 | ''Will that take very long?'' |
47319 | ''Will they come after me?'' |
47319 | ''Will you be promoted to Airey Newton''s place?'' |
47319 | ''Will you go with Miss Fricker, Miles? |
47319 | ''Will you go, if I do?'' |
47319 | ''Word of honour, Peggy,''he said,''to let neither Airey himself nor any of the rest know? |
47319 | ''Would n''t they be fools not to have a shot?'' |
47319 | ''Would she be happy if you lavished things on her and were still wretched if you had anything for yourself?'' |
47319 | ''Would you mind telling me-- man to man-- how you contrive to be my friend?'' |
47319 | ''Yes, I''ve shown such fine practical talents, have n''t I?'' |
47319 | ''Yes, but how did you know?'' |
47319 | ''Yes, but you ca n''t always have what you want, can you?'' |
47319 | ''Yet, if there were a man and a woman such as we''ve been speaking of, and there was half the shadow of a chance, ought n''t they to clutch at it? |
47319 | ''You and Peggy Ryle? |
47319 | ''You are n''t hurt with me, darling?'' |
47319 | ''You believe I never meant to break faith, old fellow? |
47319 | ''You brazen it out?'' |
47319 | ''You ca n''t conceivably mean that Mr. Fricker is wrong about them? |
47319 | ''You can feel it?'' |
47319 | ''You can find your own way?'' |
47319 | ''You can take care of that too, ca n''t you?'' |
47319 | ''You did it?'' |
47319 | ''You did n''t mean me to, when we had our talk in Paris?'' |
47319 | ''You do know that I''m a solicitor?'' |
47319 | ''You do n''t think Liffey knows----?'' |
47319 | ''You do n''t want to kill her?'' |
47319 | ''You do n''t want to speculate? |
47319 | ''You do, by Jove, do you?'' |
47319 | ''You give me leave? |
47319 | ''You like doing it?'' |
47319 | ''You love money, but----''''I love a moral lesson more? |
47319 | ''You may as well do the thing as well as you can, may n''t you?'' |
47319 | ''You meant to deceive me?'' |
47319 | ''You must have been very miserable?'' |
47319 | ''You must have heard from Fricker anyhow, if not from the ladies? |
47319 | ''You must n''t bother poor Mrs. Trevalla with business now, must he, Miss Ryle? |
47319 | ''You never see her now, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''You paid the money for me?'' |
47319 | ''You think of doing that?'' |
47319 | ''You went bail for him, did you?'' |
47319 | ''You were his friend?'' |
47319 | ''You were rich?'' |
47319 | ''You were sitting in the drawing- room devoured by curiosity?'' |
47319 | ''You will come to bed?'' |
47319 | ''You will not continue the exercise of your profession, I presume?'' |
47319 | ''You wish this done out of kindness? |
47319 | ''You wo n''t be cruel, will you, Beaufort dear?'' |
47319 | ''You wo n''t tell mamma?'' |
47319 | ''You would n''t be content to be poor?'' |
47319 | ''You would n''t care about it, anyhow, would you?'' |
47319 | ''You would n''t even look in between the two and-- and have an ice with us?'' |
47319 | ''You''d be mightily shocked, would n''t you?'' |
47319 | ''You''d like to?'' |
47319 | ''You''d try?'' |
47319 | ''You''ll go to her soon?'' |
47319 | ''You''ll go to her soon?'' |
47319 | ''You''ll see Liffey? |
47319 | ''You''ll tell mamma where I''ve gone, wo n''t you?'' |
47319 | ''You''re absolutely gravelled, are you?'' |
47319 | ''You''re in the thick of it all?'' |
47319 | ''You''ve been to Airey''s, and you''ve something to tell me?'' |
47319 | ''You''ve done that, after all?'' |
47319 | ''You''ve got it? |
47319 | ''You''ve got the money?'' |
47319 | ''You''ve told your father that you''re engaged to me? |
47319 | ''You? |
47319 | ''You? |
47319 | ''You?'' |
47319 | ''Your own money?'' |
47319 | ''Yours was all a lie too, I suppose?'' |
47319 | ''s, are n''t they?'' |
47319 | ( Do you trace any private history?) |
47319 | ( How''s the marital liver?) |
47319 | ( What did I mean? |
47319 | --a splendid semi- mendacity? |
47319 | A new loaf to- day?'' |
47319 | A sudden thought came and made her ask Airey,''Would you marry for money?'' |
47319 | After all, what would she matter? |
47319 | Am I fit for any man?" |
47319 | Am I living on your charity?'' |
47319 | Am I worth saving at all?'' |
47319 | And Connie herself? |
47319 | And I''m a free agent, I suppose?'' |
47319 | And I''ve had an offer----''''Another?'' |
47319 | And Peggy too?'' |
47319 | And Peggy''s anxious seriousness alternating with fits of triumphant vivacity? |
47319 | And after that----''''War?'' |
47319 | And did he put his traps in a bag, and take a special train, and come after you?'' |
47319 | And had she not liked him once? |
47319 | And he had sent her to that world? |
47319 | And now, as a formality-- and perhaps as a concession to the postman-- who are you?'' |
47319 | And she wants you to go with her?'' |
47319 | And the price? |
47319 | And the sinner herself? |
47319 | And what are you doing? |
47319 | And what do you think?'' |
47319 | And where to, General?'' |
47319 | And where, Sarah? |
47319 | And who gives either Fate or Frickers power? |
47319 | And you''ll tell her what you promised?'' |
47319 | And you''re fond of him, eh?'' |
47319 | And you, Airey?'' |
47319 | And, of course, the truth had yet to be told? |
47319 | And-- in the end-- what did the Tsar mean to do? |
47319 | And-- should you never have fallen if you''d been quite alone? |
47319 | Any more than, for instance, I should let-- shall we say-- Mrs. Bonfill in?'' |
47319 | Anyhow you''ll tell me what you think?'' |
47319 | Are n''t you for her? |
47319 | Are you anything that I do n''t know of? |
47319 | Are you feeling an admiration for this hero? |
47319 | Are you going to her as her saviour? |
47319 | Are you going to try and invent things?'' |
47319 | Are you in trouble?'' |
47319 | Are you inclined to come in?'' |
47319 | Are you mad? |
47319 | As a friend? |
47319 | As a woman? |
47319 | As an aunt? |
47319 | As they passed through the hall, Connie''s voice came from upstairs:--''Wo n''t Miss Ryle take a glass of wine before she goes, papa?'' |
47319 | At least-- you''re in them too, are n''t you?'' |
47319 | Because she''s in love with him?'' |
47319 | Besides, is not auntship also praiseworthy? |
47319 | Bohemian, is he? |
47319 | But Danes Inn is only a refuge, is n''t it?'' |
47319 | But I suppose you''re not?'' |
47319 | But Mortimer? |
47319 | But have n''t you learnt that that does n''t exactly work? |
47319 | But how much would it mean? |
47319 | But is that in your mind? |
47319 | But presently?'' |
47319 | But what are we to do with them?'' |
47319 | But where was the exultation of the achievement, where the glory? |
47319 | But with one-- one immense fellow-- a fellow who had sat on him and flattened him for years? |
47319 | But----''''You do n''t like the subject? |
47319 | By the way, do you know anything of this Airey Newton? |
47319 | Ca n''t you go now?'' |
47319 | Ca n''t you guess why?'' |
47319 | Ca n''t you save me, Peggy?'' |
47319 | Can I forget what I''ve been and what I''ve done? |
47319 | Can I never have the truth?'' |
47319 | Can I trust myself not to want to go back again? |
47319 | Can you guess? |
47319 | Chance has been gone ever so long, and that you made me stay with you?'' |
47319 | Chance?'' |
47319 | Concern themselves no more with her? |
47319 | Could Airey Newton, who had so often turned in impatience or deafness from the first gospel, perceive the truth of the second? |
47319 | Could it be abolished altogether? |
47319 | Could it possibly go wrong? |
47319 | Could n''t you have a power greater than the power of the enemy in him? |
47319 | Could n''t you make him cease being what he hated being? |
47319 | Could that be helped? |
47319 | Could you drive out his devil, and make a new man of him? |
47319 | Could you fight the fellow and beat him?'' |
47319 | Could you give him a new life, a new heart, a new character?'' |
47319 | Could you love a man with a devil in him?'' |
47319 | Could you?'' |
47319 | Cæsar''s wife?'' |
47319 | Did I ever drive it out? |
47319 | Did I tell you to----?'' |
47319 | Did Miss Ryle know the Rattledowneys? |
47319 | Did any man argue another''s case like this? |
47319 | Did he come after you? |
47319 | Did he know secrets? |
47319 | Did he say that? |
47319 | Did he suggest that she should retreat for a while and let the talk of her failures blow over? |
47319 | Did n''t you take me? |
47319 | Did she dare to think of meting out the same cavalier treatment to him? |
47319 | Did she know the step? |
47319 | Did the sight of its partial depletion vex him? |
47319 | Did this mean that it was ended? |
47319 | Do I give you any clear idea when I say that a certain young person wants a deal of hoisting-- and is very ponderous to hoist? |
47319 | Do I look like touching anybody''s imagination? |
47319 | Do n''t I?'' |
47319 | Do n''t people who know them generally keep their knowledge to themselves?'' |
47319 | Do n''t you remember? |
47319 | Do n''t you see how you lower yourself? |
47319 | Do n''t you see my right to pay the money in that again? |
47319 | Do n''t you sometimes think you''d better have stuck to me?'' |
47319 | Do n''t you think that the worst, the foolishest woman on earth would have been a bit too good for him? |
47319 | Do n''t you, Miss Ryle? |
47319 | Do they not play for us? |
47319 | Do you give it me? |
47319 | Do you intend to tell me that Airey-- Airey of all men-- is mean?'' |
47319 | Do you know Peggy Ryle?'' |
47319 | Do you mean Mervyn? |
47319 | Do you mean----?'' |
47319 | Do you really hesitate between doing what pleases me and what pleases Chance or the Frickers?'' |
47319 | Do you see?'' |
47319 | Do you suppose that, if Mortimer paid her attentions, she''d complain of him for being condescending? |
47319 | Do you want a husband? |
47319 | Do you want to have nothing more to do with me?'' |
47319 | Does Mortimer Mervyn mean it? |
47319 | Does Sarah know nothing more about Trix''s reasons for behaving in such a fashion?'' |
47319 | Effective, eh?'' |
47319 | Eh, Beaufort? |
47319 | Else, which must go to the wall? |
47319 | Even from me she has fled, because she has become unbearable to herself and is terrified of me"? |
47319 | Forgiving, but not forgetting-- don''t you recognise the twang of hard- hearted righteousness?'' |
47319 | Freely, freely?'' |
47319 | Fricker employed a man named Clarkson?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Fricker?'' |
47319 | Great or small, perhaps, but a price always? |
47319 | Had anybody very much to grumble at? |
47319 | Had escaping from Barslett something to do with it too? |
47319 | Had he not put it before her as impossible? |
47319 | Had he the courage? |
47319 | Had he the strength? |
47319 | Had her life now, her new life with all its brilliance, quite driven it away? |
47319 | Had n''t you better go up to her, Connie?'' |
47319 | Had not Beaufort Chance raved his worst? |
47319 | Had not generals uttered speeches and worked out professional problems? |
47319 | Had not that fact been bottled up in her for hours? |
47319 | Had not the demon summoned up all his most seductive arguments just because he was sore afraid? |
47319 | Had she ever promised to marry Chance, or to take the Frickers to Mrs. Bonfill''s or the Glentorly''s? |
47319 | Had she really struck on the way? |
47319 | Hardly sounds princely, does it, Connie?'' |
47319 | Has Mortimer come in too? |
47319 | Has Peggy Ryle got thousands to throw about? |
47319 | Has he taken as much as he himself could have claimed by the right of his nature and faculties? |
47319 | Have I no friend left-- nobody who''ll treat me openly, not play with me as if I were a child, and a silly child? |
47319 | Have I raised him?'' |
47319 | Have n''t we squandered, Airey?'' |
47319 | Have n''t you stumbled on the right principle, Trix?'' |
47319 | Have you any personal objection to my dropping a tear? |
47319 | Have you been treating yourself to Drury Lane?'' |
47319 | Have you had the Frickers to dinner since my eye was off you? |
47319 | Have you noticed that they''ve been falling a good deal lately? |
47319 | He abandoned himself to her persuasion; had not that been his bargain for the day? |
47319 | He can bid higher, eh? |
47319 | He carried it off well though, exclaiming:''What, you? |
47319 | He paused and asked,''Shall I proceed?'' |
47319 | He smiled bitterly at her mistake, and fixed his eyes on her as he asked:--''Could you change a man, if you gave yourself to him? |
47319 | He was just going to grab the twopence and put it back in his pocket again, when she said,"Would n''t it be nice to spend it?" |
47319 | He was puzzled; he hazarded a suggestion:''Do you-- er-- wish to open----?'' |
47319 | Heavens, do we want to be fit for or to please the Abstract Man? |
47319 | Here I wrote just as I should have spoken:''I''m sure you''ll be so happy, dear,''above my breath;''why, in Heaven''s name, does she do it?'' |
47319 | His mood bred no action; what stood between? |
47319 | His record was not very good, but had he deserved this? |
47319 | How am I to resist? |
47319 | How can you help loving her?'' |
47319 | How can you think that I or any of us mind a scrap whether you''re rich or poor?'' |
47319 | How could he bear to change his life for hers? |
47319 | How could the shade be taken away? |
47319 | How do I look?'' |
47319 | How do you mean?'' |
47319 | How had she come to desire it so urgently and to take it with such recklessness? |
47319 | How should she argue that it had not been? |
47319 | How was Mrs. Trevalla? |
47319 | How will she feel when it''s finished?'' |
47319 | How?'' |
47319 | I daresay you could convey----?'' |
47319 | I know who I was before dinner, but who am I now?'' |
47319 | I love it all, but just now and then''--she came to him and laid her hand lightly on his arm--''just now and then may I come again?'' |
47319 | I mean a burglar, or a swindler, or anything of that kind?'' |
47319 | I say, Airey, do n''t you think she''s got too much sense to marry a poet? |
47319 | I say, if we do it, old Mervyn''ll look pretty blue, eh? |
47319 | I say, ought n''t I to offer to go and call on her?'' |
47319 | I suppose some people can live in more than one?'' |
47319 | I suppose you know me? |
47319 | I wonder if we''ve got to say''Like to like''in any other way, Sarah? |
47319 | I wonder if you''d come? |
47319 | I wonder-- er-- how much she has made?'' |
47319 | I''m obedient up to now?'' |
47319 | I''ve been immortalised in a sonnet----''''Dissected in an essay too?'' |
47319 | I''ve spent all my money----''''You''ve spent----?'' |
47319 | If Fricker were minded to repay the obligation, was there any particular harm in that? |
47319 | If I''ve-- if I''ve made mistakes, I----''''You''ve suffered for them? |
47319 | If a man had loved an unworthy woman( supposing there are any), he should be most courteous to her always, should n''t he?'' |
47319 | If he could jest about the trouble, surely the trouble was well- nigh past? |
47319 | If he sent her away empty, what harm was done? |
47319 | If it saves her pain?'' |
47319 | If it went wrong-- if the five thousand or the bulk of it were lost, what was left to her? |
47319 | If she could do that for him, would he be unhappy? |
47319 | If the body were sold, did not the soul pass too? |
47319 | If the soul were bartered, what value was it to keep the body? |
47319 | If you did that, how much money should you want?'' |
47319 | If you ever thought of telling it all, whom were you going to tell it to? |
47319 | If you wanted to be free, for whom did you want your freedom? |
47319 | If you''ve given her back her self- respect, what has n''t she done for you? |
47319 | In a flash of salvation the picture of herself crumpling up the letter rose before her; the letter, yes, but the envelope? |
47319 | In the end he did not answer her question, but put one in his turn:--''So you hold me responsible?'' |
47319 | Indeed who else of the old life was left? |
47319 | Is it possible that my advice is working?'' |
47319 | Is it really you?'' |
47319 | Is it true there''s to be a question? |
47319 | Is it worth resisting? |
47319 | Is n''t it enough? |
47319 | Is n''t that about it?'' |
47319 | Is n''t that enough? |
47319 | Is n''t that the great refusal?'' |
47319 | Is she a friend of yours?'' |
47319 | Is there any harm in that?'' |
47319 | Is there any other diversion for your idle old father?'' |
47319 | It is heart- breaking-- heart----''''And what did Mortimer say?'' |
47319 | It was brutal; was it unjust? |
47319 | It was madness? |
47319 | It was rather a mistake to send me to the right- about, was n''t it? |
47319 | It was she who-- but shall I tell that to her?'' |
47319 | John?'' |
47319 | Listen, then:--_ Lord B._: Do you-- er-- know a Mr. Airey Newton-- Newton, Viola? |
47319 | Lord Barmouth attained a frigid amiability as he said with a smile:''Used to know him, perhaps you''ll say now?'' |
47319 | Manson, do you take an interest in humble tragedies?'' |
47319 | May I tell him that?'' |
47319 | May not''means''denote capital as well as income? |
47319 | Must Trix relinquish that golden dream of the Dramoffsky Concessions, and give up those hundreds-- welcome if few-- from the Glowing Star? |
47319 | Must a man be tempted to argue thus or to accept such arguments? |
47319 | Must it stand only as a fit of madness, to be looked back on with shame or spoken of with bitter ridicule? |
47319 | Must you say that again? |
47319 | Newton?'' |
47319 | No clue to where the rest of life lies? |
47319 | No more do I. Shall we join the ladies? |
47319 | No, would it? |
47319 | Not fully paid, I suppose?'' |
47319 | Now if you''d come----''''Me? |
47319 | Now is n''t she? |
47319 | Now what would you do in such a case, Herr Professor Sarah? |
47319 | Now why should I let Mrs. Trevalla in? |
47319 | Now, considering that Trix knocked him down, is n''t he an old dear of a gentleman? |
47319 | Oh, I do n''t mean a goose like Trix Trevalla, but----''''A clever girl like yourself, eh?'' |
47319 | Oh, do n''t you understand? |
47319 | Oh, you''re thinking of----? |
47319 | On the whole, were the four years misspent? |
47319 | On your honour did Peggy pay Mr. Fricker money? |
47319 | On your honour did you give it her?'' |
47319 | Or did I tear it up? |
47319 | Or did he own ancestral plate? |
47319 | Or did you fall and need to be picked up again?'' |
47319 | Or if he were dissuading her from the step she had hinted at, was not his method perversely roundabout? |
47319 | Or in being in a hurry? |
47319 | Or must I''--she broke into a smile of ridicule--''or must I try to work?'' |
47319 | Or precious-- and perhaps scandalous-- documents? |
47319 | Or should your mother----?'' |
47319 | Or something like that?'' |
47319 | Or was it the whole thing? |
47319 | Or was she to defy Mervyn and cast in her lot with the Frickers-- and with Beaufort Chance? |
47319 | Or would he spare it her? |
47319 | Or would they not rather keep her in prison and school her again? |
47319 | Or-- or that perhaps your manner----?'' |
47319 | Ought n''t they to play the bold game? |
47319 | Ought they to give it up?'' |
47319 | Peggy burst out joyously:''It''s really all right, then?'' |
47319 | Peggy looked at her curiously and risked the question:--''Did you care at all for him?'' |
47319 | Prudent man, was n''t he? |
47319 | Sad or humorous, serious or mocking? |
47319 | Say he was cruel-- could you make him kind?'' |
47319 | Scotland as misty and slaughterous as ever? |
47319 | Seen anything of our friends the Frickers lately?'' |
47319 | Sha''n''t I always hear them accusing me? |
47319 | Shall I give her a bracelet or a necklace, or-- could I give her a tiara, Tommy?'' |
47319 | Shall we say''Like to like''? |
47319 | She added, after a pause,''You''ll look at the statement and let me know what you think, wo n''t you? |
47319 | She amended the judgment she had given a minute before:''We could cry together, or laugh together, or something, could n''t we?'' |
47319 | She blushed painfully: could she point out how little that had mattered when she was going to be Lady Mervyn? |
47319 | She came quickly up to Peggy and implored her,''Will you hide me here for a little while?'' |
47319 | She came to him and said,"Well, you''re a pretty fellow, are n''t you? |
47319 | She could not prevent herself from saying:--''May I come again?'' |
47319 | She could not resist adding,''Have n''t you heard anything about me?'' |
47319 | She had given him the facts now; what would he make of them? |
47319 | She has n''t told you about them?'' |
47319 | She held out her hand to him, but added as an afterthought,''And you will tell me what to do about the investments, wo n''t you?'' |
47319 | She held out her hands to him, crying again for help:''How? |
47319 | She paused before she asked,''Do you see much of Beaufort now?'' |
47319 | She ran through it and along that road----_ Myself_(_ distrustfully_): That road, Lord B.? |
47319 | She smiled at him as she asked a question:--''Does money always make people what you are?'' |
47319 | She swung back the baize door of Peggy''s flat with a cheerful vigour, and called aloud:--''Peggy, where are you? |
47319 | She''s beautiful, I think; do n''t you?'' |
47319 | She''s not deep in them, is she? |
47319 | She''s so friendly and cordial, is n''t she? |
47319 | Should it be Mervyn, Mrs. Bonfill''s prime card, her chosen disciple? |
47319 | Should you be always throwing Mr. Fricker in my face?'' |
47319 | Since there''s no way not to do it, which of those two do you think best?'' |
47319 | So I went to Mr. Fricker----''''You went to Fricker?'' |
47319 | So Mrs. Trevalla wo n''t show, wo n''t she? |
47319 | Some chance, shall we say?'' |
47319 | Spills? |
47319 | Still, what then? |
47319 | Supposing I went to him with my hundred a year? |
47319 | Surely, surely, what she had done should turn to good? |
47319 | Tell me-- what will there be left? |
47319 | That''s all settled then? |
47319 | That''s hardly final, is it? |
47319 | That''s what you meant me to do?'' |
47319 | The butterman?'' |
47319 | The laugh''ll be against him then, wo n''t it?'' |
47319 | The old story or a new one? |
47319 | The purity of politics? |
47319 | Then Tommy said:--''Well, you can tell me?'' |
47319 | There''s nobody here, is there?'' |
47319 | They both seem to think that I''ve been such a-- such a---- Oh, what shall I do?'' |
47319 | This last circumstance she seemed to think would interest Beaufort; or did she merely aim at carrying off the situation by a tactful flow of talk? |
47319 | Till one day the girl came back again and----''''I thought she only asked for eightpence?'' |
47319 | To take a weight off Mrs. Trevalla''s mind?'' |
47319 | Trevalla has perhaps told you something of her relations with me?'' |
47319 | Trevalla has shown you my letter, you tell me, and you have come to make me a proposition?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trevalla?'' |
47319 | Trix? |
47319 | Under cover of it Peggy turned to Tommy and asked in a carefully subdued whisper:''How much is a mark?'' |
47319 | Want some more money?'' |
47319 | Was any man roused in this fashion by an abstract discussion? |
47319 | Was he the man that in Lady Blixworth''s opinion the situation needed? |
47319 | Was he unjust in that? |
47319 | Was he writing a great book? |
47319 | Was her power gone? |
47319 | Was it a mere test of your ingenuity, young friend?'' |
47319 | Was it an intrigue? |
47319 | Was it possible to pass from one to the other, to change your origin and name? |
47319 | Was it strange that she should talk of selling herself for money? |
47319 | Was n''t it for you that I did it?'' |
47319 | Was not the contrast to be made as wonderful and striking as possible? |
47319 | Was not this the revenge indeed? |
47319 | Was she all wrong? |
47319 | Was she already a woman of influence? |
47319 | Was that enough? |
47319 | Was that the difference between buying for yourself and for me?'' |
47319 | Was that too the way of the world? |
47319 | Was the idea of visiting so ludicrous? |
47319 | Was the position desperate? |
47319 | Was there always a price to be paid? |
47319 | Was there no thread to this labyrinth? |
47319 | Was this the existence to which she must come, a woman ruined, and content with these four walls? |
47319 | Was this to repent of her bargain? |
47319 | Wash their hands of her? |
47319 | Well, it does n''t matter, does it? |
47319 | Well, shall we give that half? |
47319 | Well, unless---- Well, as I said, why drive Mrs. Fricker round the Park? |
47319 | Well, what of the players in the pantomime? |
47319 | Well, you ca n''t tell her not to come, can you? |
47319 | Were you buying for me? |
47319 | What I really ask-- and I want to ask it in italics-- is,_ Whom is she in love with?_ Trix, I mean, of course. |
47319 | What about Dramoffskys? |
47319 | What about her precious money? |
47319 | What are you doing here? |
47319 | What are you going to do with me?'' |
47319 | What business was it of Mrs. Bonfill''s? |
47319 | What can I believe? |
47319 | What choice has he? |
47319 | What could a fool like Mervyn do with a woman like you? |
47319 | What did that signify? |
47319 | What did the vendor feel who bartered his right for a small price because he had overlooked the pearl? |
47319 | What do you mean by the rest of it?'' |
47319 | What do you mean?'' |
47319 | What do you mean?'' |
47319 | What does that matter?'' |
47319 | What does the world know or reck of thorns in exalted cushions? |
47319 | What else is there for me to try for? |
47319 | What else is there left for me? |
47319 | What else was he doing with himself? |
47319 | What good should I do? |
47319 | What had I to do with it? |
47319 | What happens to have painted you red to- day?'' |
47319 | What have you bought those for?'' |
47319 | What have you come for?'' |
47319 | What have you done for the Frickers?'' |
47319 | What her heart asked was, Could freedom and love be reconciled? |
47319 | What is the good of being statuesque if you may not live up to it? |
47319 | What made it harder to buy after lunch than before? |
47319 | What more do we ask of or about them? |
47319 | What of others? |
47319 | What of that? |
47319 | What of that? |
47319 | What of that? |
47319 | What of that?'' |
47319 | What on?" |
47319 | What other refuge had she? |
47319 | What sort of man is he? |
47319 | What then? |
47319 | What time is it? |
47319 | What turned his thoughts to that direful possibility? |
47319 | What was I to do?'' |
47319 | What was his tone? |
47319 | What was the upshot of the day? |
47319 | What was the use of that? |
47319 | What was there? |
47319 | What would any sober judgment on it say? |
47319 | What would happen? |
47319 | What would he do? |
47319 | What would he think when he realised the freak into which she had led him? |
47319 | What would they do? |
47319 | What would they do? |
47319 | What you could n''t possibly forgive me? |
47319 | What''s going to happen now? |
47319 | What''s going to happen to pretty Peggy Ryle?'' |
47319 | What''s left for me?'' |
47319 | What''s the matter? |
47319 | What''s the moral, Sarah? |
47319 | What''s your business here?'' |
47319 | When I helped you-- when I introduced Fricker to you-- was that only friendship? |
47319 | When does she want to come?'' |
47319 | When people come, how do you account for me?'' |
47319 | When the last of the money''s gone, perhaps? |
47319 | When''s the wedding- day?'' |
47319 | Where are you going?'' |
47319 | Where do you come from?'' |
47319 | Where had I met Miss Connie Fricker? |
47319 | Where have you got it from?'' |
47319 | Where is she, by the way?'' |
47319 | Where to? |
47319 | Where was Mrs. Trevalla? |
47319 | Where was the forlorn girl in the widow''s weeds? |
47319 | Where''s our friend Mrs. Trevalla? |
47319 | Where''s papa?'' |
47319 | Which of your charming new friends has? |
47319 | Whither now? |
47319 | Who cares for a whip if it be left hanging on the peg? |
47319 | Who now should call him narrow- minded? |
47319 | Who shall say that Beaufort Chance had not taken rich revenge? |
47319 | Who would have thought of Fricker''s taste for a good story or of that last kick of malice in Beaufort Chance? |
47319 | Who''s"any man,"Peggy? |
47319 | Who( this was an after- thought, coming very late in the day, but demanded by the facts of the case) was Mrs. Trevalla after all? |
47319 | Whose face was in your mind through the drive to- day? |
47319 | Whose was the whip on the peg-- Fate''s or Fricker''s? |
47319 | Why could n''t Fricker have held his tongue, instead of indulging his partner with such entertaining confidences? |
47319 | Why did she call it hard? |
47319 | Why do the things you deserve make you sick to think of them? |
47319 | Why give people other than what they want, better than they desire? |
47319 | Why must I? |
47319 | Why should he be robbed because this woman had been a fool? |
47319 | Why should he happen to come now? |
47319 | Why should n''t we be very jolly? |
47319 | Why should there be an end? |
47319 | Why should you laugh? |
47319 | Why take Connie Fricker to the Quinby- Lees''s dance?'' |
47319 | Why? |
47319 | Why? |
47319 | Will he come again, Peggy?'' |
47319 | Will there be enough to-- to exist upon? |
47319 | Will you give a name to what was my propensity?'' |
47319 | Will you leave her to me? |
47319 | Will you listen? |
47319 | Wo n''t you come to the soul shop too? |
47319 | Wo n''t you come too?'' |
47319 | Would Lady Blixworth have echoed that from Barslett? |
47319 | Would Miss Ryle mind waiting half an hour and having a cup of tea? |
47319 | Would he have the courage? |
47319 | Would he never speak? |
47319 | Would n''t you go to her as fine as you could?'' |
47319 | Would n''t you? |
47319 | Would she walk out again? |
47319 | Would they turn her out? |
47319 | Would they wash their hands of her? |
47319 | Would you rather speak to her yourself? |
47319 | Yet when she spoke of friends who loved Trix Trevalla, whom could she touch, whom could she move, as she touched and moved him? |
47319 | Yet, if he held these views about the way to treat life, why did he not live? |
47319 | You ca n''t suppose she''d like you with the one you''ve got?" |
47319 | You can drive me back home, ca n''t you?'' |
47319 | You can say something?'' |
47319 | You do n''t mind about not making any more money?'' |
47319 | You have your work; what have I? |
47319 | You mean to start afresh, eh? |
47319 | You meant I was to make other people happy too, did n''t you?'' |
47319 | You promise not to tell?'' |
47319 | You ransomed me?'' |
47319 | You remember?'' |
47319 | You see what I want, do n''t you?'' |
47319 | You see what it means?'' |
47319 | You think I''m nasty now, but I''m not generally, am I?'' |
47319 | You want me to make her think that she can get out of Glowing Stars without further loss?'' |
47319 | You were coming to Cadogan Square, were n''t you? |
47319 | You were hardly the stuff to fight Fricker, were you? |
47319 | You wo n''t forsake me? |
47319 | You wo n''t order me out? |
47319 | You worked well?'' |
47319 | You''ll tell me the truth?'' |
47319 | You''re not ashamed of me, I suppose?'' |
47319 | You''ve heard Beaufort mention the Dramoffsky Concessions, I daresay?'' |
47319 | You''ve put that in the letter?'' |
47319 | Your fun, my dear?'' |
47319 | _ Myself_(_ hedging_): Curious, is n''t it? |
47319 | _ Myself_: And she pushed you away? |
47319 | _ Myself_: Did that strike you at once? |
47319 | _ Myself_: Did you watch her? |
47319 | _ Myself_: He''d be nothing without it, would he, Lord B.? |
47319 | _ Myself_: Is that Audrey in her habit? |
47319 | _ Myself_: Well, it''s hardly the time----( Do wise people ever finish sentences, Sarah?) |
47319 | _ Myself_: What, Audrey dear, come in already? |
47319 | about nothing?'' |
47319 | and was not Fricker-- well, at heart a gentleman? |
47319 | murmured Peggy,''did I?'' |
599 | ------ it, how much is it? |
599 | A qui cette voiture la? |
599 | A rich some one, or a poor some one? |
599 | A sentimental song, and calling Rosa, Rebecca, what''s her name, Amelia''s little friend-- your dearest diddle- diddle- darling? |
599 | A what? |
599 | A what? |
599 | About George? |
599 | About what? |
599 | Against whom? |
599 | Am I to understand then, that you are going-- away, William? |
599 | And Amelia?--Who is to protect that poor little sister of yours? |
599 | And I''ll go and see her to- morrow? |
599 | And am I to credit my ears that you absolutely proposed to her, Sir Pitt? |
599 | And in what part of it? 599 And is your sister- in- law a nice pretty woman?" |
599 | And now who is it, my dear? 599 And she refused you as she says?" |
599 | And so the shepherd is not enough,said he,"to defend his lambkin?" |
599 | And so they took your darling child from you? |
599 | And the chilis? |
599 | And the--th? |
599 | And what do you think, my dear? |
599 | And you yourself? |
599 | And you''ll see her safe out of Brussels in the event of a defeat? |
599 | Ar''n''t you coming with me, dearest? |
599 | Are they not beautiful, Rebecca? |
599 | Are you a friend of Amelia''s? |
599 | Are you all here to insult me? |
599 | Are you ashamed of it? |
599 | Are you come to do anything in my way, sir? 599 Are you engaged?" |
599 | Are you going to stop in Pumpernickel? |
599 | Are you going to take her out for a walk? |
599 | Are you in your senses? 599 Are you well?" |
599 | But he is quiet to ride? |
599 | But what have I done to you,she continued in a more pitiful tone,"that you should try and take him from me? |
599 | But what is the use of disturbing her night''s rest? |
599 | But why, why wo n''t she see me again? |
599 | But wo n''t I flog''em on to Squashmore, when I take the ribbons? |
599 | Ca n''t you guess, Joseph Sedley? |
599 | Can I ever forget her who so befriended the friendless orphan? 599 Can we then begin too early, Pitt?" |
599 | Can you guess who we are, George? |
599 | Come-- as what, sir? |
599 | Could not you lock your wheels into theirs, dearest? |
599 | D---- your French,said the young gentleman,"where''s the biscuits, ay?" |
599 | Dear Lady Jane, what care we for poverty? 599 Dear Miss Osborne, is this the counsel I hear from you? |
599 | Dearest love,she said,"do you suppose I feel nothing?" |
599 | Defend you,he said,"and who? |
599 | Devlish fine horse-- who is it? |
599 | Did Dobbin kill the man who killed Papa? |
599 | Did he give you this? |
599 | Did he? |
599 | Did n''t you see how he shook all over when you asked if he was married and he said,''Who told you those lies?'' 599 Did you ever hear anything like your brother''s eloquence?" |
599 | Did you ever see a dun, my dear; or a bailiff and his man? 599 Did you ever see a pair of buckskins like those at Miss Pinkerton''s?" |
599 | Did you play? |
599 | Did you really now value it for my sake? |
599 | Did you see how he blushed at the mention of poor George on duty? |
599 | Do n''t he, Osborne? 599 Do n''t you know me, George? |
599 | Do n''t you remember me, Mrs. Clapp, and those good cakes you used to make for tea? 599 Do n''t you remember, Miss Briggs, how you peeped in at the door and saw old Sir Pitt on his knees to me?" |
599 | Do n''t you see I ca n''t leave my hosses? 599 Do n''t you see that creature with a yellow thing in her turban, and a red satin gown, and a great watch?" |
599 | Do n''t you think one of the daughters would be a good spec for me, Ma''am? |
599 | Do they talk the language of flowers at Boggley Wollah, Sedley? |
599 | Do you find it as good as everything else from India? |
599 | Do you know what I intend to do one morning? |
599 | Do you know, sir, Mrs. Osborne''s condition? 599 Do you play much?" |
599 | Do you remember the last time we met at Miss Crawley''s, when I was so rude to you, dear Captain Osborne? 599 Do you suppose I have no feeling of self- respect, because I am poor and friendless, and because rich people have none? |
599 | Do you suppose a man of my habits can live on his pay and a hundred a year? |
599 | Do you think he is up to my weight? |
599 | Do you think so? |
599 | Do you, Amelia? |
599 | Do you, Amelia? |
599 | Does he read ee very long zermons, my dear? 599 Does he?" |
599 | Does she really think I am handsome? |
599 | Faith, then, why did n''t you BOY one? |
599 | For God''s sake, what is it? |
599 | For thrashing him last night-- didn''t he, Dobbin? 599 For whom is this, Miss Jemima?" |
599 | From that woman? |
599 | From the Marquis of Steyne? |
599 | Go on about what, sir? 599 Going on a journey; and when is he coming back?" |
599 | Good God, who is it? |
599 | Good God, you do n''t mean to say you want to break off? |
599 | Good God,thought he,"and is it grief like this I dared to pry into?" |
599 | Good gracious, Rawdon,he said, with a blank face,"what brings you here at this time of the morning? |
599 | Good morning, your Honour,said Clink, in reply to the"How do, Clink?" |
599 | Good- bye? 599 Gracious goodness, and who''s to make my chocolate? |
599 | Had n''t you better come, Jos,the Major said,"with George and me?" |
599 | Had n''t you better, now that Miss Sedley is free, propose for her yourself, William? |
599 | Had you not better give Miss Briggs a glass of wine? |
599 | Had your dinner, I suppose? 599 Har you a goin''to pay me? |
599 | Has he been laughing about me to Joseph? 599 Has not the Captain-- or the Colonel as I may now style him-- done deeds which make the name of Crawley illustrious?" |
599 | Hast thou any money, Max? |
599 | Have I not tended that dear couch for years? |
599 | Have n''t they been engaged ever since they were children? 599 Have you completed all the necessary preparations incident to Miss Sedley''s departure, Miss Jemima?" |
599 | Have you done me no wrong, Rebecca? 599 Have you had a quarrel, Amelia? |
599 | Have you not heard the astonishing intelligence regarding her surreptitious union? |
599 | He DID give''em me,still cried poor Betsy;"did n''t he, Hester? |
599 | He is to make fun of me, is he? |
599 | Heigh ha? 599 Here''s Mrs. Bute Crawley just arrived by the mail from Hampshire, and wants some tea; will you come down and make breakfast, Miss?" |
599 | Hey, Mrs. O''Dowd? 599 Horrid, ai n''t he, hey?" |
599 | How are you, Sedley? |
599 | How are you, old fellow? 599 How can you-- how dare you have such wicked, revengeful thoughts?" |
599 | How could you do so, Rebecca? |
599 | How d''ye do, Crawley? 599 How dare Mrs. Crawley to enter the house of-- of an honest family?" |
599 | How dare you stay here when you heard me call? 599 How dare you, sir, break it?" |
599 | How dare you, sir, break the bottle? |
599 | How dare you, sir, mention that person''s name before Miss Swartz to- day, in my drawing- room? 599 How did this begin,"we say,"or where will it end?" |
599 | How do you mean? |
599 | How is Amelia? |
599 | How is Mrs. Crawley''s husband? |
599 | How is dearest Amelia? 599 How is that, dear love? |
599 | How is the worthy alderman, and my lady, your excellent mother, sir? |
599 | How many captains in the regiment have two thousand pounds to the fore, think you? 599 How much is it?" |
599 | How much money had he left to that boy? 599 How old is he?" |
599 | How old is she? |
599 | How was she after the events of the morning-- after the fatigues of the ball the night before? |
599 | How''s Amelia-- Mrs. George? 599 How''s little Miss Sharp, by- the- bye?" |
599 | Hurray? |
599 | Hwhat''s that gawky guggling about? |
599 | I beg your pardon, sir,says Bowls, advancing with a profound bow;"what''otel, sir, shall Thomas fetch the luggage from?" |
599 | I do n''t ask her,Jos shouted out--"I do n''t ask that-- that Irishwoman, but you Amelia; once for all, will you come?" |
599 | I have taken your son,it said,"why not you? |
599 | I hope you''ve forgot nothink? 599 I knew him very well, sir,"he said,"and his wife, his dear little wife, sir-- how is she?" |
599 | I knew it all along,William said;"but could I use that weapon against the poor fellow''s memory? |
599 | I regard her as a sister, of course--which means-- what does it mean when a lady says that she regards Jane as a sister? |
599 | I say come, Amelia,the civilian went on;"never mind what she says; why are we to stop here and be butchered by the Frenchmen?" |
599 | I say, what''ll Mrs. O. do, when O. goes out with the regiment? |
599 | I suppose no Briton''s afraid of any d---- Frenchman, hey? |
599 | I wonder what Major Dobbin has to say against Rebecca? |
599 | I wonder, does he wear a star? |
599 | I''m sure he did, or he would if he could have caught him, would n''t he, Mother? 599 I, Ma''am, ask a member of this family to marry a drawing- master''s daughter?" |
599 | If Gaunt dies, your husband may come to his honours; your little boys may inherit them, and who knows what besides? 599 If you are so ready, young ladies, to chop and change, do you suppose that she is? |
599 | If you had n''t sent for me,he added with a laugh,"who knows what Glorvina''s name might be now?" |
599 | In other words, you ask me if I''m a man of honour,said Osborne, fiercely;"is that what you mean? |
599 | Indeed I believe her to be--"To be what? |
599 | Indeed,said the General, with a very small bow;"of what regiment is Captain George?" |
599 | Is he a man in a line- regiment? |
599 | Is he a presentable sort of a person? |
599 | Is he very clever? |
599 | Is it a crime to try and look my best when YOU come here? |
599 | Is it her mother you''re going to take her to? |
599 | Is it his nose bleedn? 599 Is it only suspicion, you know, or-- or what is it? |
599 | Is jealousy nothing? |
599 | Is n''t he very rich? |
599 | Is n''t it a good salmi? |
599 | Is n''t it clever of me to remember that? 599 Is n''t she better on her bed? |
599 | Is not this a strange place,she continued,"for a woman, who has lived in a very different world too, to be found in? |
599 | Is she not better then? |
599 | Is that your church, sir? |
599 | Is the Major''s lady young and beautiful, Captain? |
599 | Is the girl making fun of me? |
599 | Is the regiment ordered away, George-- is it ordered away? |
599 | Is there no way out of it, old boy? |
599 | Is there to be nobody left in Brussels to protect us poor women? |
599 | Is this true, what I see in the paper then? |
599 | It seems like yesterday, do n''t it, John? |
599 | It''s rather slow work,said he,"down here; what shall we do?" |
599 | It''s you, Moss, is it? |
599 | Killing rats was I? 599 Last year you mean, when I was fresh from that horrid vulgar school? |
599 | Look at him, is n''t he handsome enough to dine anywhere, Miss Sharp? |
599 | Look at him,the old man would say, nudging his neighbour with a delighted purple face,"did you ever see such a chap? |
599 | Look,said Amelia,"this is his sash-- isn''t it a pretty colour?" |
599 | Lots of tin, I suppose, eh? |
599 | Married? 599 Marry that mulatto woman?" |
599 | Me? 599 Mine a yellow face? |
599 | Mon Dieu, madame, what has happened? |
599 | Mr. George Osborne, sir, how will you take it? |
599 | Mr. Raggles,said Becky in a passion of vexation,"you will not surely let me be insulted by that drunken man?" |
599 | Mrs. O''Dowd,he said,"had n''t you better get Amelia ready?" |
599 | My Lady Steyne,he said,"once more will you have the goodness to go to the desk and write that card for your dinner on Friday?" |
599 | My dear,interposed the Magistrate and Rector--"she''s only--""Are there no handcuffs?" |
599 | My place? |
599 | My poor dear child,cried Miss Crawley, who was always quite ready to be sentimental,"is our passion unrequited, then? |
599 | Near the pretty little woman in white? |
599 | Never be well or never go, Miss Briggs? |
599 | No bones broke? 599 No more gambling business, hay, like that when we shot Captain Marker?" |
599 | No such thing; why pay an extra place? 599 No,"he said, letting her hands go:"Who has told you those lies? |
599 | Not Pitt? 599 O George, what have you done?" |
599 | O he is, is he? 599 O, THAT''S your errand, is it?" |
599 | O, you''re a- going to call me out, are you? 599 Of course I do-- I always did, did n''t I?" |
599 | Oh, it was Madame de Belladonna, was it? |
599 | Ought I to be angry with her for being faithful to him? |
599 | Ought I to be jealous of my friend in the grave, or hurt that such a heart as Amelia''s can love only once and for ever? 599 Ought a man to give up the woman he loved, just when misfortune befell her?" |
599 | Poor Joe, why WILL he be so shy? |
599 | Pray, Miss Sharp, are you waiting for the Prince Regent''s divorce, that you do n''t think our family good enough for you? |
599 | Rawdon dear-- don''t you think-- you''d better get that-- money from Cupid, before he goes? |
599 | Rawdon married Rebecca-- governess-- nobod-- Get out of my house, you fool, you idiot-- you stupid old Briggs-- how dare you? 599 Reg''lar starved out, hey? |
599 | Ruined her? 599 SHOULD you?" |
599 | See whom? |
599 | Send the letters to the agents,he said;"they will forward them; for you will write to me, wo n''t you? |
599 | Shall I go and fetch you some? |
599 | Shall I sing''Blue Eyed Mary''or the air from the Cabinet? |
599 | Shall I wear the family diamonds, Jos? |
599 | Shall I write to your brother-- or will you? |
599 | Shall we go and look at some horses that Snaffler''s just brought from Lewes fair? |
599 | She asked you to sup with her? |
599 | She''s married to whom? |
599 | Should he go and fetch the truant? |
599 | Should you like to have a ride? |
599 | So Russell Square is not good enough for Mrs. Maria, hay? |
599 | So that old scoundrel''s dead, is he? 599 So the rascal ran off, eh?" |
599 | Soup? |
599 | Suppose the French do come,thought Becky,"what can they do to a poor officer''s widow? |
599 | Suppose we go and see the Lightning come in, it''s just about time? |
599 | Tell me the private reasons; what are the private reasons? 599 That I may be only the more unhap-- unwilling to lose you?" |
599 | The Alderman''s very rich, is n''t he? |
599 | The child, my child? 599 The feller has left you, has he?" |
599 | Then, why not come away with me? |
599 | There''s no way but one out of it,Rawdon replied--"and there''s only a way out of it for one of us, Mac-- do you understand? |
599 | This Sir Pitt Crawley''s? |
599 | This is my boy, Rebecca,Mrs. Osborne said-- as much as to say-- can the world produce anything like that? |
599 | This young lady is your friend? 599 To be a wicked woman-- a heartless mother, a false wife? |
599 | Very well? 599 WHY?" |
599 | Was I really? |
599 | Was Rebecca guilty or not? |
599 | Was he fair or dark? |
599 | Was n''t he, Georgy? |
599 | Was there ever a battle won like Salamanca? 599 Well, Firkin?" |
599 | Well, Jane? |
599 | Well, NOW will you go? |
599 | Well, sir, will you go? |
599 | Well? |
599 | Well? |
599 | Were you in Captain Osborne''s company? |
599 | What CAN you want with a shepherd''s dog? |
599 | What an honour to have had you for a brother- in- law, you are thinking? 599 What are those?" |
599 | What are you driving at, Dobbin? |
599 | What became of Captain Osborne''s widow? |
599 | What can they mean? |
599 | What could Lady Southdown mean by leaving a card upon you, I wonder, Miss Briggs? |
599 | What d''you mean, pretty clear, sir? |
599 | What do you mean-- law? |
599 | What do you mean? |
599 | What do you mean? |
599 | What do you say? |
599 | What do you want with driving to- night? |
599 | What do you want? 599 What engagements? |
599 | What good can I do her, suppose-- suppose the enemy arrive? |
599 | What have I done? 599 What have we for dinner, Betsy?" |
599 | What have you a been and given Pitt''s wife? |
599 | What is it I can do for you, Dobbin? |
599 | What is it, Dob, me boy? |
599 | What is it? 599 What is it?" |
599 | What is it? |
599 | What is it? |
599 | What is money compared to our souls, sir? |
599 | What is the matter, Mother? |
599 | What is the matter, then? |
599 | What is the other shop, my dear child? |
599 | What matters it,she asked,"For an old woman like me?" |
599 | What relation-- my cousin, hey, Mrs. Bute? 599 What right have you to ask me that question, sir? |
599 | What shall we do, boys, till the ladies return? |
599 | What sort of a person is this Miss Sharp, Firkin? 599 What the deuce can she find in that spooney of a Pitt Crawley?" |
599 | What the deuce right has he to give himself his patronizing airs, and make fools of us at Vauxhall? 599 What the deuce was the good of my telling you what any tom- fools talked about?" |
599 | What the deuce, man, are you alarmed about? 599 What the devil''s that to you or any one here if I am?" |
599 | What the devil''s that? |
599 | What was it: was he coming home? |
599 | What''ll you have, Crawley? 599 What''s that to me?" |
599 | What''s that? |
599 | What''s the matter now, my dear? |
599 | What''s the matter, Emmy? |
599 | What''s the matter, Miss Osborne? |
599 | What''s the row about, Crawley, my boy? |
599 | What''s the row there, you two? |
599 | What''s the salary? |
599 | What''s the use of going down to that stupid place? |
599 | What, YOU fly? |
599 | What, my boy? |
599 | What? 599 What?" |
599 | What? |
599 | What? |
599 | What? |
599 | When do you intend to give up play, George, as you have promised me, any time these hundred years? |
599 | When do you intend to give up sermonising? |
599 | When you were quite poor, who was it that befriended you? 599 Where are they? |
599 | Where are they? |
599 | Where is Sir Pitt Crawley? |
599 | Where''s Becky? |
599 | Where''s her traps? 599 Where''s the farden?" |
599 | Which very possibly may be fatal, I have come hither--"Why not say come here, Becky? 599 Who could quarrel with him?" |
599 | Who has told such calumnies? 599 Who is come?" |
599 | Who is it tu, then, you''re married? 599 Who is it?" |
599 | Who is it? |
599 | Who is it? |
599 | Who is that wonderful woman with Amelia, Rawdon, love? |
599 | Who is the master of it? 599 Who knows what sort of life she has been leading? |
599 | Who knows,the dear woman may have thought within herself,"perhaps he may give me a little more?" |
599 | Who the deuce asked you to talk about my affairs? |
599 | Who took any? |
599 | Who was Grandpapa? |
599 | Who''d have thought what? |
599 | Who''s that? |
599 | Who''s to prevent me? |
599 | Whom? 599 Why are you going to marry an Earl''s daughter?" |
599 | Why are you here, Rebecca? |
599 | Why did you ask that scoundrel, Rawdon Crawley, to dine? |
599 | Why did you not wait for me, sir, to escort me downstairs? |
599 | Why do n''t you pour, you rascal? |
599 | Why may n''t I hear her singing? 599 Why need we pay it?" |
599 | Why not she as well as another, Mrs. Sedley? 599 Why not?" |
599 | Why should I spare him? |
599 | Why should I? |
599 | Why the devil is all the regiment to know that I am going to be married? 599 Why, do you think Miss Pinkerton will come out and order me back to the black- hole?" |
599 | Why, hang it, man, you do n''t call offering him eight or ten thousand a year threatening him? |
599 | Why, sir, did n''t you order me to marry her, and ai n''t I a good boy? 599 Why, what is the moment to help her but when she is so miserable? |
599 | Why, why, Mr. Clump, did you not inform me sooner? |
599 | Why, will the black footman tell tales? |
599 | Why, you do n''t mean to say you are going to have that woman into the house? |
599 | Why? 599 Why?" |
599 | Why? |
599 | Why? |
599 | Will my dear Miss Crawley not cast an eye of compassion upon the heroic soldier, whose name is inscribed in the annals of his country''s glory? |
599 | Will you dine here? 599 Will you take six guineas a dozen for it, sir?" |
599 | Will you take some potage, Miss ah-- Miss Blunt? 599 Without my husband, Joseph?" |
599 | Wo n''t O. come round, sir, do n''t you think? |
599 | Wo n''t you? |
599 | Would it not be a privilege to be Miss Crawley''s sister? |
599 | YOU do n''t care, I suppose? |
599 | Yes, hang it,( said Sir Pitt, only he used, dear, A MUCH WICKEDER WORD);"how''s Buty, Hodson? |
599 | Yes, of course, I do-- only--"Only what? |
599 | Yes; how could you be so cruel as to make me eat that horrid pepper- dish at dinner, the first day I ever saw you? 599 You CAN''T?" |
599 | You CAN''T? |
599 | You are irritated against my noble friend,Mr. Wenham calmly resumed;"and now, in the name of common sense and justice, tell me why?" |
599 | You are not in debt, then? 599 You do n''t mean that these words, uttered in a hurried moment, are to weigh against a whole life''s devotion? |
599 | You do n''t mean that, Amelia? |
599 | You do n''t mean to go? |
599 | You do n''t mean to say that-- that Crawley''s mistaken? |
599 | You do n''t mind my cigar, do you, Miss Sharp? |
599 | You fool, why do you catch at a straw? |
599 | You found my cheque all right at the agent''s? 599 You have nevare played-- will you do me a littl''favor?" |
599 | You hint at something not honourable, then? |
599 | You mean that the old lady wo n''t leave the money to you? |
599 | You owe her her wages, I suppose? |
599 | You remember him, Mac, do n''t you, in the Riding School? 599 You should see me dance a reel with Mrs. Major O''Dowd of ours; and a jig-- did you ever see a jig? |
599 | You surely would not desert her? |
599 | You villain, why do you shrink from plunging into the irretrievable Gazette? |
599 | You will never go again, William? |
599 | You wonder at one so poor and friendless having an attachment, do n''t you? 599 You would have accepted it yourself, would n''t you, Briggs?" |
599 | You would n''t be such a flat as to let three thousand a year go out of the family? |
599 | You''re a military man,he went on;"I ask you, Bill Dobbin, could any man ever have speculated upon the return of that Corsican scoundrel from Elba? |
599 | Your mother has talked to you about me-- has she? |
599 | ''s acquaintances get cards)--who, I say, with the most good- natured feelings in the world, can help wondering how the Jenkinses make out matters? |
599 | ( Do you remember Vauxhall, Emmy, and Jos singing to his dearest diddle diddle darling?) |
599 | ( I propose, if you please); or a little pug that would go into one of Lord Steyne''s snuff- boxes? |
599 | ( I wonder whether he could really have been going to the troops, this great lazy gourmand?) |
599 | ( Would any man, the most philosophic, give twopence for a woman who was?) |
599 | --"Who,"I exclaimed,"can we consult but the excellent, the incomparable Miss Pinkerton?" |
599 | --and who knows but it was Mr. Crawley''s meaning? |
599 | A ball might have done for me in the course of the war, and may still, and how will Emmy be bettered by being left a beggar''s widow? |
599 | A pretty figure I''d be, would n''t I, stuck behind that chap on a pillion?" |
599 | About their complaints and their doctors do ladies ever tire of talking to each other? |
599 | About this who can tell? |
599 | Adamson''s or Carbonell''s?" |
599 | After all, what right have you to say I am engaged, or to meddle in my business at all, Dobbin?" |
599 | Ah, poor wretch, when was your lip pressed before by such pure kisses? |
599 | Ah, what shall I do, Lord Steyne? |
599 | Ai n''t there no one at the King''s Head to rub''em a little? |
599 | All the time she was here, did n''t you see, George, how she was acting at the General over the way?" |
599 | Always to be right, always to trample forward, and never to doubt, are not these the great qualities with which dullness takes the lead in the world? |
599 | Am I master of the house? |
599 | Am I right in my conjecture that Mr. Osborne entertained a society of chosen spirits round his sumptuous board last night?" |
599 | Am I wrong? |
599 | Amelia said, making a movement back-- why did n''t he speak? |
599 | Amelia that was at Miss P.''s at Hammersmith? |
599 | Amelia,"cried the brother, in serious alarm,"what do you mean?" |
599 | An''t the magnolias at Glenmalony as big as taykettles, O''Dowd?" |
599 | And I wonder what were diplomatists made for but for that? |
599 | And as he talked on, he grew quite bold, and actually had the audacity to ask Miss Rebecca for whom she was knitting the green silk purse? |
599 | And do you suppose that Rawdon is not big enough to take care of my honour? |
599 | And has not her own avarice been sufficiently punished by the ruin of her own hopes and the loss of the property by which she set so much store? |
599 | And how was I to know any better? |
599 | And if not? |
599 | And is there any news of the Collector of Boggley Wollah? |
599 | And suppose I had won her, should I not have been disenchanted the day after my victory? |
599 | And the diamonds--"Where the doose did you get the diamonds, Becky?" |
599 | And they wo n''t come to Russell Square, wo n''t they? |
599 | And what business has she here abroad and alone? |
599 | And what good could his wife get, he urged, by making curtsies every night to a whole circle of Princesses? |
599 | And wherefore? |
599 | And who is that nice good- natured looking creature with her-- a flame of yours? |
599 | And who on earth, after the daily experience we have, can question the probability of a gentleman marrying anybody? |
599 | And why not a bowl of rack punch as well as any other cause? |
599 | And why was it? |
599 | And yet, when I was at my father''s, did not the men give up their gayest balls and parties in order to pass the evening with me?" |
599 | Another would set a sum--"If a pound of mutton- candles cost sevenpence- halfpenny, how much must Dobbin cost?" |
599 | Any letters? |
599 | Any relation to the L------ Osbornes?" |
599 | Are not there little chapters in everybody''s life, that seem to be nothing, and yet affect all the rest of the history? |
599 | Are there many married officers of the--th, Captain Dobbin?" |
599 | Are there not moments when one grows sick of grinning and tumbling, and the jingling of cap and bells? |
599 | Are we pining in secret? |
599 | Are you aware how small his means are, and of the straitened circumstances of his widow?" |
599 | Are you come to fetch him from me?" |
599 | Are you coming to fetch me for the quadrille?" |
599 | Are you the little girl that George Osborne said should marry him? |
599 | As for Emmy, had she not done her duty? |
599 | As for poor Mrs. Winkworth, and her long hair and great eyes, which had made such an effect at the commencement of the evening-- where was she now? |
599 | As for that little Amelia, her folly had really passed all--""All what?" |
599 | As they were going out, however, he took Amelia''s hand and said--"Will you stay a moment and speak to me?" |
599 | As, indeed, how should any of those prim and reputable virgins? |
599 | Ask Miss Sharp if I have n''t? |
599 | At all events, what use was there in delaying? |
599 | Becky looked at her husband, and then at Sir Pitt, with an air of saucy triumph-- as much as to say,"Shall I betray you?" |
599 | Both, on the other hand, had joined pretty gaily in the conversation, for why should they interrupt it? |
599 | But have we not all been misled about our heroes and changed our opinions a hundred times? |
599 | But he wears well, my pretty Lady Jane, do n''t he? |
599 | But how many, my dear Madam, are endowed with your prodigious strength of mind? |
599 | But need we fear anything beyond a momentary anger? |
599 | But that talking French to Miss Pinkerton was capital fun, was n''t it? |
599 | But were there no reasons why I should avoid you? |
599 | But what avail all these accomplishments, in Vanity Fair, to girls who are short, poor, plain, and have a bad complexion? |
599 | But what man in love, of us, is better informed?--or is he much happier when he sees and owns his delusion? |
599 | But what was the grandfather''s pleasure compared to Amelia''s ecstacy? |
599 | But what would have become of our story and all our friends, then? |
599 | But where was it he learnt his art? |
599 | But who can tell you the real truth of the matter? |
599 | But who had made her tell it? |
599 | But why speak about her? |
599 | Bute, Bute, why did you break your collar- bone?" |
599 | Ca n''t you come Tuesday? |
599 | Ca n''t you keep it quiet? |
599 | Ca n''t you write to old Mother Figs to- morrow?" |
599 | Can one, Miss Sharp?" |
599 | Can she give lessons in anything? |
599 | Come to see the old man, hay? |
599 | Could a prince have been better cared for? |
599 | Could his own conscience ever forgive him if he deserted her? |
599 | Could it be the tempest which, as she passed the landing of the first floor, blew open the drawing- room door? |
599 | Could she help giving her hand to the man who had won her heart? |
599 | Could she not spare it? |
599 | Crawley?" |
599 | Dare any soul on earth breathe a word against the sweetest, the purest, the tenderest, the most angelical of young women?" |
599 | Dear Miss Osborne, can your generous heart quarrel with your brother for being faithful to her? |
599 | Dear kind Miss Crawley-- dear friend, may I say so?" |
599 | Did n''t Miss Crawley remark it, who has lived in the best company in Europe? |
599 | Did n''t he cross the fight between Bill Soames and the Cheshire Trump, by which I lost forty pound? |
599 | Did n''t he rob young Lord Dovedale at the Cocoa- Tree? |
599 | Did n''t he shoot Captain Marker? |
599 | Did n''t you?" |
599 | Did not Lord Eldon himself, the most prudent of men, make a runaway match? |
599 | Did she own to herself how different the real man was from that superb young hero whom she had worshipped? |
599 | Did she see him often? |
599 | Did these debt- difficulties affect Rawdon''s good spirits? |
599 | Did they sit up for little Mary Clapp, the landlord''s daughter, who actually caught the disease of little Georgy? |
599 | Did they sit up for the folks at the Pineries, when Ralph Plantagenet, and Gwendoline, and Guinever Mango had the same juvenile complaint? |
599 | Do n''t the barristers''wives talk about Circuit? |
599 | Do n''t the clergymen''s ladies discourse about Sunday- schools and who takes whose duty? |
599 | Do n''t the soldiers''ladies gossip about the Regiment? |
599 | Do n''t the very greatest ladies of all talk about that small clique of persons to whom they belong? |
599 | Do n''t they make a pretty little couple?" |
599 | Do n''t you know he has hit a man, and shot an injured father through the hat only? |
599 | Do n''t you know how careless he is of it, and could I dare to confide it to him?" |
599 | Do n''t you recollect me, Clapp? |
599 | Do n''t you remember singing a song?" |
599 | Do n''t you remember the catastrophe, Ma''am, seven years ago?" |
599 | Do n''t you remember the song we used to sing in old, dear old days? |
599 | Do you call that nothing?" |
599 | Do you expect my wife to take in soldiers''washing, or ride after the regiment in a baggage waggon?" |
599 | Do you grudge me even gratitude, Miss Crawley? |
599 | Do you put cayenne into your cream- tarts in India, sir?" |
599 | Do you remember when you wrote to him to come on Twelfth- night, Emmy, and spelt twelfth without the f?" |
599 | Do you suppose a Montmorency is not as good as a Crawley?" |
599 | Do you think I have no heart? |
599 | Do you think my husband was too much inclined to welcome you? |
599 | Do you think our little girl here need be afraid? |
599 | Do you think you could love him as I did? |
599 | Do you think, because I am a governess, I have not as much sense, and feeling, and good breeding as you gentlefolks in Hampshire? |
599 | Do you want any? |
599 | Do you want to see a dawg as CAN kill a rat? |
599 | Do you write a good hand? |
599 | Dobbin, where have you been?" |
599 | Dobbin?" |
599 | Dobbin?" |
599 | Does my lord carry bravos for couriers, and stilettos in the fourgons? |
599 | Does n''t every girl like to come home for the holidays? |
599 | Does she suit you well at Queen''s Crawley? |
599 | During the months of Rebecca''s stay in Hampshire, the eternal friendship had( must it be owned?) |
599 | Emmy, why did n''t you have a bouquet? |
599 | Ever since her womanhood almost, had she not been persecuted and undervalued? |
599 | From Solomon downwards, have not wiser men than he been cajoled and befooled by women? |
599 | Gad, how he did drop, sir, and what was it? |
599 | General, why have we not had any ices?" |
599 | George?" |
599 | Good God, John, what has happened?" |
599 | Governor come round?" |
599 | Had any difference arisen between him and her papa? |
599 | Had he ever refused a bill when George drew one? |
599 | Had his wife a private fortune? |
599 | Has Aunty relented?" |
599 | Has he frightened him? |
599 | Has he given you any?" |
599 | Has he not been a hundred times before in the same position? |
599 | Have I not learned in that time to read all your feelings and look into your thoughts? |
599 | Have n''t our Papas settled it ever so long?" |
599 | Have we a right to repeat or to overhear her prayers? |
599 | Have we not stated that he was attached to Lady Jane Sheepshanks? |
599 | Have you all loved me, and been so kind to the poor orphan-- deserted-- girl, and am I to feel nothing? |
599 | Have you and Emmy been quarrelling already with Joseph, that he wants to be off?" |
599 | Have you been in Russell Square? |
599 | Have you ever had a difference with a dear friend? |
599 | Have you not been everything to me and my boy? |
599 | He did not believe a word of the story, and yet, how discredit or disprove it? |
599 | He had his pretty Rose, and what more need a man require than to please himself? |
599 | He looked round gloomily at his eldest daughter; who, comprehending the meaning of his look, which asked unmistakably,"Why the devil is she here?" |
599 | He saw a woman coming to him with a child of five years old-- was that she? |
599 | He was a little wild: how many young men are; and do n''t girls like a rake better than a milksop? |
599 | He was as pale as a ghost and could hardly falter out the words--"Does Mrs. Osborne live here?" |
599 | He was pompous, but with such a cook what would one not swallow? |
599 | He was very much interested about his employer''s family; but, que voulez- vous? |
599 | He''s hankering about my house, is he still? |
599 | Here, my dear, I was interrupted last night by a dreadful thumping at my door: and who do you think it was? |
599 | Hey, Dobbin? |
599 | Hey, Mrs. O''Dowd? |
599 | Hey, sir? |
599 | His blushes, his stumbles, his awkwardness, and the number of feet which he crushed as he went back to his place, who shall describe or calculate? |
599 | His suspicions were excited,--the dreadful scene took place between my Lord and my cruel, cruel Rawdon-- and, O my God, what will happen next? |
599 | Honourables? |
599 | How Miss Sharp lay awake, thinking, will he come or not to- morrow? |
599 | How can one be condescending to a lady to whom one owes a matter of forty pounds, and who is perpetually throwing out hints for the money? |
599 | How could Betty tell that the letter was for Miss Briggs, I should like to know? |
599 | How could I love any other but him? |
599 | How could any parent be obdurate for a length of time against such a paragon as he was? |
599 | How could he? |
599 | How could he? |
599 | How cut up your pretty little friend will be; hey, Becky?" |
599 | How d''ye do, Crawley?" |
599 | How dare you sit down in my presence? |
599 | How did she bear it? |
599 | How did she look? |
599 | How do, Pitt? |
599 | How do, my dear? |
599 | How does Jenkins balance his income? |
599 | How is Mrs. Amelia after the storm of Waterloo? |
599 | How is Mrs. Sedley, sir? |
599 | How is he?" |
599 | How is our dear little Emmy? |
599 | How is this? |
599 | How long will a few hundred pounds last such a chap as that?" |
599 | How many of the wise and learned have married their cooks? |
599 | How much for this lot? |
599 | How shall I be a companion for him, she thought-- so clever and so brilliant, and I such a humble foolish creature? |
599 | How she had despaired and hoped to die there; and now were not all her wishes accomplished, and the lover of whom she had despaired her own for ever? |
599 | How the deuce am I to keep up my position in the world upon such a pitiful pittance? |
599 | How the deuce, my dear, would you have me behave respectfully to such a fool as your brother?" |
599 | How was it that no minister on the Continent would receive Madame? |
599 | How was it that she had come to that little town? |
599 | How was it that she had no friends and was wandering about alone? |
599 | How was little George to respect a man so prostrate? |
599 | How was she to bare that timid little heart for the inspection of those young ladies with their bold black eyes? |
599 | How was she? |
599 | How well he made that five stroke, eh?" |
599 | Hundredth Psalm, Evening Hymn, hay Pitt? |
599 | Hygeia herself would have fallen sick under such a regimen; and how much more this poor old nervous victim? |
599 | I ask you, William, could I suppose that the Emperor of Austria was a damned traitor-- a traitor, and nothing more? |
599 | I ask you, sir, how dare you do it?" |
599 | I can rough it well enough; but you, my dear, how will you bear it? |
599 | I dare say he is tres aimable; but how could one love a man with feet of such size? |
599 | I gave him the name; ai n''t it capital? |
599 | I hope not-- What has he done?''" |
599 | I know him; and Osborne''s a goodish- looking fellow, with large black whiskers?" |
599 | I know where she kept that packet she had-- and can steal in and out of her chamber like Iachimo-- like Iachimo? |
599 | I mean, have you enough gold to take you back to England in case of a misfortune?" |
599 | I only said I should like to go-- what Briton would not? |
599 | I presume you know, gentlemen, to whom my friend is indebted for this piece of patronage?" |
599 | I should like to know in what I''m your inferior?" |
599 | I should like to know what well- constituted mind, merely because it is transitory, dislikes roast beef? |
599 | I was all in all then to him; or would he have given up his fortune, his family, as he nobly did to make me happy? |
599 | I wonder was Lady Jane angry or pleased that her husband at last found fault with his favourite Rebecca? |
599 | I wonder where are they, those good fellows? |
599 | I''m glad Miss Sharp''s not hungry, ai n''t you, Tink?" |
599 | If Aunty does not relent, what shall we do?" |
599 | If I desert her, sir, do you suppose she forgets me?" |
599 | If I had forgiven it, ought he to have spoken? |
599 | If all the drops in it were dried up, what would become of the sea? |
599 | If he fails in distinction-- what then? |
599 | If he were to meet her with the little boy-- Good God, what should he do? |
599 | If she fails us, is n''t there what you call the Gazette? |
599 | If you take temptations into account, who is to say that he is better than his neighbour? |
599 | If you were heir to a dukedom and a thousand pounds a day, do you mean to say you would not wish for possession? |
599 | In a word, have you, dear madam, any ladies on your list, whose services might be made available to my kind friend and neighbour? |
599 | In the first place, though she held the town, was she sure of the principal inhabitant? |
599 | Is he going anywhere?" |
599 | Is his case a rare one? |
599 | Is it all too late?" |
599 | Is it her Ladyship that wants to escape, or her Ladyship''s femme de chambre?" |
599 | Is it of being poor, forsaken, wretched, that you accuse me? |
599 | Is it sheer love of their species, and an unadulterated wish to see young people happy and dancing? |
599 | Is it so, or is it not so? |
599 | Is it that pretty Miss Sedley''s brother? |
599 | Is it unfaithfulness to my husband? |
599 | Is n''t he a noble boy, William? |
599 | Is n''t he like an angel?" |
599 | Is n''t he, Rawdon?" |
599 | Is n''t it good fun?" |
599 | Is n''t it, Emmy?" |
599 | Is n''t that a stratagem?" |
599 | Is n''t the whole course of life made up of such? |
599 | Is old Weller alive or dead? |
599 | Is she living and thriving? |
599 | Is the circumstance strange or novel? |
599 | Is the quarrel of MY making? |
599 | Is there any cause for fear, Isidor? |
599 | Is there any in the world like it? |
599 | Is there no Chelsea or Greenwich for the old honest pimple- nosed coachmen? |
599 | Is your poor brother recovered of his rack- punch? |
599 | It is a shame, he owned to himself; but hang it, if a pretty woman WILL throw herself in your way, why, what can a fellow do, you know? |
599 | It is all vanity to be sure, but who will not own to liking a little of it? |
599 | It is history you are reading?" |
599 | It is not too warm for you? |
599 | It must have come some day: and why not now as at a later period? |
599 | It seems more humble--""Rawdy goes, of course?" |
599 | It was in vain that the old lady asked her if she was aware she was speaking to Miss Pinkerton? |
599 | It was not half handsome enough of course for the boy, but was n''t it noble of him to think of bringing it to his mother? |
599 | It''s all over, and--""And what?" |
599 | It''s her, and-- Tell me about her-- where is she?" |
599 | James sweet on her, hey?" |
599 | Jos walked up to his friend, and put the question for the hundredth time during the past hour,"Did she know where horses were to be had?" |
599 | Joseph simply said,"Cream- tarts, Miss? |
599 | Joseph?" |
599 | Joseph?" |
599 | Ladies, are you aware that the great Pitt lived in Baker Street? |
599 | Ladies, what man''s love is there that would stand a year''s nursing of the object of his affection? |
599 | Like a drop of beer?" |
599 | Like any warm water? |
599 | Lock? |
599 | Look at his boots and yellow jacket-- ain''t he a rum one? |
599 | Marry somebody else, hay?" |
599 | Mars, Bacchus, Apollo virorum, hey? |
599 | Master Rawdon, hey? |
599 | Miss Ann, did it not strike you that it was not YOU whom the Major wanted to marry? |
599 | Miss Moss, a dark- eyed maid in curl- papers, appeared with the teapot, and, smiling, asked the Colonel how he had slep? |
599 | Miss O., when you go out adriving to- day, leave my card upon Mr. Sedley, do you hear? |
599 | Miss Sharp adores pork, do n''t you, Miss Sharp?" |
599 | Miss''Melia''s gownds-- have you got them-- as the lady''s maid was to have''ad? |
599 | Mr. George sent you here to insult his father, did he?" |
599 | My darling Frederick must positively be an eldest son; and-- and do ask Papa to bring us back his account in Lombard Street, will you, dear? |
599 | Not Miss Binny, she was too old and ill- tempered; Miss Osborne? |
599 | Not half, surely? |
599 | Now he is gone, are you come to see how unhappy I am?" |
599 | O whom? |
599 | O''Dowd?" |
599 | O, my dear brethren and fellow- sojourners in Vanity Fair, which among you does not know and suffer under such benevolent despots? |
599 | Of course he would come; what could he do else but come? |
599 | Of what else do their dear mammas think? |
599 | Of what else have young ladies to think, but husbands? |
599 | Oh, why did Miss Pinkerton let such a dangerous bird into her cage? |
599 | One asked him if he was going to be married? |
599 | Only one feeling all day-- when will he come? |
599 | Or a Persian greyhound, eh? |
599 | Osborne rose too, and shook him heartily by the hand, and said,"How do, my dear boy?" |
599 | Ought he to forsake her? |
599 | Our dearest, truest, kindest friend and protector? |
599 | Perhaps it was the happiest time of both their lives, indeed, if they did but know it-- and who does? |
599 | Poor simple lady, tender and weak-- how are you to battle with the struggling violent world? |
599 | Pray, madam, shall I tell you some little anecdotes about my Lady Bareacres, your mamma?" |
599 | Pride has come down, has she?" |
599 | Provided there is no scene, why should n''t we meet? |
599 | Quartered here, Captain George?" |
599 | Rebecca, may I give you a wing?" |
599 | Remember me, do n''t you? |
599 | Sed?" |
599 | Sedley?" |
599 | Sedley?" |
599 | Sedley?" |
599 | See the chaps in a boat- race; look at the fellers in a fight; aye, look at a dawg killing rats-- which is it wins? |
599 | Send for her to Park Lane, do you hear?" |
599 | Shall I say Tuesday fortnight? |
599 | Shall I tell you a compliment the Captain paid me? |
599 | She asked him so frequently and pathetically, Will ye come to the bower? |
599 | She curled her hair and showed her shoulders at him, as much as to say, did ye ever see such jet ringlets and such a complexion? |
599 | She had had a season in Dublin, and who knows how many in Cork, Killarney, and Mallow? |
599 | She had loved him only too fondly: and was he not the father of her boy?) |
599 | She held out both her hands shaking--"Don''t you remember me?" |
599 | She said not, but who could tell what was truth which came from those lips, or if that corrupt heart was in this case pure? |
599 | She shall not go out as long as I remain to watch over her; And as for my health, what matters it? |
599 | She was awake, poor soul, and to what? |
599 | Should any mischance befall him: what was then left for her? |
599 | Should he continue to write to her from Paris, whither the army was marching? |
599 | Should he go in and wake Amelia, he thought, or leave a note for her brother to break the news of departure to her? |
599 | Should he take the journey on foot? |
599 | Should she astonish Raggles by settling his account? |
599 | Should she pay off old Briggs and give her her conge? |
599 | Should she take laudanum, and end it, to have done with all hopes, schemes, debts, and triumphs? |
599 | So I may give him your word of honour, may I, that in case of extremity you will stand by her?" |
599 | So that he had change, what cared he? |
599 | So they remember my speaking at Oxford, do they? |
599 | Some day people may be tired of play, and then where are we?" |
599 | Suppose Miss Polly would come with me and show me the way?" |
599 | Suppose we had laid the scene in Grosvenor Square, with the very same adventures-- would not some people have listened? |
599 | Surely share and share alike between the three?" |
599 | THE KING? |
599 | Tell me, Rebecca, did I ever do you anything but kindness?" |
599 | That comfortable home was shut, then, upon Amelia and her parents: where had they taken refuge? |
599 | The General, with the orders in his button, stared at the newcomer with a sulky scowl, as much as to say, who the devil are you? |
599 | The Major wanted to hear that Georgy was going to a school and hoped he would acquit himself with credit there: or would he have a good tutor at home? |
599 | The bailiffs and brokers seized upon poor Raggles in Curzon Street, and the late fair tenant of that poor little mansion was in the meanwhile-- where? |
599 | The curtain will be up presently, and he will be turning over head and heels, and crying,"How are you?" |
599 | The little pair looked so well together, she would say( but not to the folks in"the Square,"we may be sure)"who knows what might happen? |
599 | The little sly wretch: how dared she not tell me?" |
599 | The living has always belonged to the younger brother, and why should n''t you sell out and go into the Church?" |
599 | Then she resumed her conversation with General Tufto, who asked"who the fat officer was in the gold- laced cap?" |
599 | Then why do n''t you turn her out?" |
599 | There is some one; who is it that has touched your heart?" |
599 | This house?" |
599 | This is it, is it? |
599 | Those who wish to be safe had better go soon, for the dykes will be opened to- morrow, and who can fly when the whole country is under water?" |
599 | Though why should I complain of her,"Rebecca added;"though I have been her tool and the victim to her arts, do I not owe my dearest Rawdon to her?" |
599 | To be sister- in- law to George Osborne, Esquire, son of John Osborne, Esquire, son of-- what was your grandpapa, Mr. Osborne? |
599 | To have, and to be forced to yield; or to sink out of life, having played and lost the game? |
599 | To hide, in the nature of how many women? |
599 | To how many people can any one tell all? |
599 | To this Amelia did not answer, yes or no: and how do we know what her thoughts were? |
599 | To whom could the poor little martyr tell these daily struggles and tortures? |
599 | Two hundred-- it ca n''t be less than two hundred-- hey, Becky?" |
599 | Was I not a sister to you? |
599 | Was Mr. Sedley pretty comfortable now in a worldly point of view? |
599 | Was it because he was Sir Pitt at last, with a seat in Parliament, and perhaps future honours in prospect? |
599 | Was it her fault if she did not possess those sycophantic arts which her hypocritical nephew, Pitt Crawley, practised? |
599 | Was it not a charming evening? |
599 | Was it not enough to set this little heart beating with joy? |
599 | Was it possible? |
599 | Was it that his generous heart warmed to her at the prospect of misfortune; or that the idea of losing the dear little prize made him value it more? |
599 | Was n''t he dancing with Amelia?" |
599 | Was n''t it as good as a marriage? |
599 | Was n''t there a scandal about their separation? |
599 | Was not a bowl of prussic acid the cause of Fair Rosamond''s retiring from the world? |
599 | Was she going to be married or not? |
599 | Was she guilty or not? |
599 | Was she guilty or not? |
599 | Was the prize gained-- the heaven of life-- and the winner still doubtful and unsatisfied? |
599 | Was there any woman who could talk, or sing, or do anything like her? |
599 | We and they, are we not still the same men? |
599 | We must have a party, Mr. S. Why do n''t you speak, John? |
599 | Well, Pitt, are you a sporting man? |
599 | Were n''t you jealous of General Tufto, and the General of you, on the night of the Opera? |
599 | Were not Achilles and Ajax both in love with their servant maids? |
599 | Were you an accomplice of that abandoned wretch, I wonder, of whose vile arts he became a victim, and of whom you used to be such an admirer? |
599 | What City man could show such another? |
599 | What SHIP was it, Horrocks, and when did you kill?" |
599 | What a day, eh? |
599 | What an innocent mutton, hey? |
599 | What are benefits, what is constancy, or merit? |
599 | What business had he to be there? |
599 | What call was there to press it on so eagerly? |
599 | What can we do for you, sir? |
599 | What cared she so long as her husband was near her? |
599 | What causes young people to"come out,"but the noble ambition of matrimony? |
599 | What could Briggs do but accept the salutation? |
599 | What could Miss Jane say to such a question, and with her own peculiar views? |
599 | What could the Major mean, Mamma?" |
599 | What did she say? |
599 | What do I seek but his good, for which I''ve been toiling like a convict ever since he was born? |
599 | What do any of you care for the agonies and tortures of a poor forsaken woman? |
599 | What do men know about women''s martyrdoms? |
599 | What do you come in a chay for-- ain''t the coach good enough?" |
599 | What does he care? |
599 | What does the governor say? |
599 | What dulness may not red lips and sweet accents render pleasant? |
599 | What else did n''t he know, or could n''t he do? |
599 | What folly will not a pair of bright eyes make pardonable? |
599 | What good mother is there that would not commiserate a penniless spinster, who might have been my lady, and have shared four thousand a year? |
599 | What had happened? |
599 | What had that little Mrs. Crawley to say to him? |

599 | What has come of Major Dobbin, whose cab was always hankering about her premises? |
599 | What is Jenkins? |
599 | What is a buggy, Papa?" |
599 | What is it, on the other hand, that makes the lawyer eschew his own cause, and call in his learned brother as an adviser? |
599 | What is it? |
599 | What is that ghastly face looking out balefully after him from behind the arras? |
599 | What is the rack in the punch, at night, to the rack in the head of a morning? |
599 | What is there in a pair of pink cheeks and blue eyes forsooth? |
599 | What is your name?" |
599 | What keeps them dancing till five o''clock in the morning through a whole mortal season? |
599 | What love, what fidelity, what constancy is there equal to that of a nurse with good wages? |
599 | What mystery was there lurking? |
599 | What need to particularize? |
599 | What pangs of dim remorse and doubt and shame? |
599 | What person who loved a horse- speculation could resist such a temptation? |
599 | What qualities are there for which a man gets so speedy a return of applause, as those of bodily superiority, activity, and valour? |
599 | What recollections of boyhood and innocence might have been flitting across his brain? |
599 | What sayest thou? |
599 | What says the bard? |
599 | What sends them trooping to watering- places? |
599 | What shall we say, sir, for the elephant?" |

599 | What''s the good of being in Parliament, he said, if you must pay your debts? |
599 | What, it''s you who have been a setting of him up-- is it? |
599 | What, what is this?" |
599 | What? |
599 | When do n''t ladies weep? |
599 | When my poor James was in the smallpox, did I allow any hireling to nurse him? |
599 | When shall we have a meet? |
599 | When she got her money she gambled; when she had gambled it she was put to shifts to live; who knows how or by what means she succeeded? |
599 | When she saw the boy, at whose face she looked hard through her shining eyes and mask, she said,"Monsieur n''est pas joueur?" |
599 | When we heard that your aunt had left almost everything to Pitt and his wife, do you remember what a rage you were in? |

599 | Will he marry her? |
599 | Will you come back? |
599 | Will you come? |
599 | Will you do as I tell you, once for all, sir, or will you not?" |
599 | Will you like to take anything?" |
599 | Will you visit the parent''s offence upon the child''s head? |
599 | William knew her feelings: had he not passed his whole life in divining them? |
599 | With such eyebrows, and a look so decidedly bilious, how was he to extract that money from the governor, of which George was consumedly in want? |
599 | Would Miss Crawley herself hold out; and had she not a secret longing to welcome back the ousted adversary? |
599 | Would a man, think you, give YOU up if you were poor?" |
599 | Would his aunt relent towards him now that he was a Lieutenant- Colonel and a C.B.? |
599 | Would she have pitied him had she seen him? |
599 | Would they have done as much for other people? |
599 | Would you counsel him to do so?" |
599 | Yes or no?" |
599 | Yes or no?" |
599 | Yet, another mug of beer?" |
599 | You ai n''t got married? |
599 | You and I, my dear reader, may drop into this condition one day: for have not many of our friends attained it? |
599 | You ca n''t help your pedigree, and I quite agree with you that I would have married Mr. Joe Sedley; for could a poor penniless girl do better? |
599 | You do n''t suppose Crawley cheats? |
599 | You do n''t think I am afraid of him, Captain Crawley? |
599 | You know he has given his proofs, I presume, Colonel Crawley?" |
599 | You too, kindly, homely flower!--is the great roaring war tempest coming to sweep you down, here, although cowering under the shelter of Holborn? |
599 | You will go and see Georgy tomorrow, wo n''t you?" |
599 | You''ve not come here for to make me suppose that he wants to marry HER? |
599 | Young Stubble went about from man to man whispering,"Jove, is n''t she a pretty gal?" |
599 | about the way in which we''ve treated that angel of a girl? |
599 | and had not her brother Joseph just brought her two from India? |
599 | and how many of those gentle souls do you degrade, estrange, torture, for the sake of a little loose arithmetic, and miserable dog- latin? |
599 | and what is it? |
599 | and where are you going?" |
599 | and would that odious Rebecca once more get into favour? |
599 | asked Jos in a flurry of pleasure and perplexity;"what have I done-- to-- to--?" |
599 | assassinate poor little me?" |
599 | cried Miss Swartz, spinning swiftly round on the music- stool,"is it my Amelia? |
599 | did n''t he?" |
599 | did n''t you tell your mother you would dine here?" |
599 | do fine work? |
599 | do n''t you love him? |
599 | do you know that she tried to kill herself? |
599 | he said; and the question, the great question of all, was trembling on his lips, when Emmy replied--"Can I do otherwise?--did not he give it me?" |
599 | he was rather dull, perhaps, but would not such wine make any conversation pleasant? |
599 | how many of you have surreptitious milliners''bills? |
599 | how- dy- doo?" |
599 | is her life in danger?" |
599 | is she dead?" |
599 | is this the return to your poor, poor Arabella?" |
599 | leave our brother to come to us?" |
599 | may not my love, my life, my duty, try to repay the confidence you have shown me? |
599 | or will you forgive the child for poor George''s sake?" |
599 | paint card- racks? |
599 | perhaps he condoles with me, does he? |
599 | roared out Rawdon;"do you mean that you ever heard a fellow doubt about my wife and did n''t tell me, Mac?" |
599 | said Amelia,"who is it? |
599 | said Lady Southdown,"how can you think of such a thing?" |
599 | said her husband,"and that a woman of your years and size is to catch cold, in such an abominable damp place?" |
599 | said the old lady;"this language to me?" |
599 | says Mr. Cuff:"I should like to know why, pray? |
599 | shall I go up and see?" |
599 | she said;"or do you want to go to Mamma yourself, Mr. Sedley? |
599 | that Rawdon was making a victim of him as he had done of many before, and as soon as he had used him would fling him off with scorn? |
599 | they said he-- that is, they said you--""What the devil do you mean?" |
599 | though she, Rebecca, had seemed to act undutifully towards Miss Crawley; yet was not her fault a natural and excusable one? |
599 | thought he,"or is she only making game of me?" |
599 | thought she,"or is it only lords that wear stars? |
599 | was a man of intellect to waste his life, day after day, inspecting cross- belts and putting fools through their manoeuvres? |
599 | was ever such ill luck as mine?" |
599 | was; for the coaches, where are they? |
599 | what an ankle, eh, Jos?) |
599 | what have I done?" |
599 | what was it to George''s? |
599 | where was she?) |
599 | where''s Dob?" |
599 | which of us is happy in this world? |
599 | who can calculate the depth of affection expressed in that enthusiastic SO? |
599 | why should he? |
599 | will that zatusfy you? |
599 | you who have shown the poor orphan what happiness and love are for the first time in her life-- quit YOU? |
599 | you, who say you love everybody?" |
