32603The theme was already suggested, but of its wild and terrible development who could have had any foreknowledge?
32603These friends all accosted us with eager questions:--"Addonde estan las muchachas?"
32603Thou going eastward, and I to the west?"
32603Tom Appleton disposed of the water- cure theory in the following fashion:"Water- cure?

32603Was this door to be shut in their face?
32603We waited long for him, and I at last said to Mrs. Longfellow,"What can it be that detains your brother so late?"
32603What are they waiting for, and why do they look as they do?"
32603What can I say of it that has not already been said?
32603What may I chronicle as its successes?
32603What was Maria Mitchell?
32603What?
32603When I made my appearance, standing erect, and in my right clothes and mind, people did not recognize me, and asked,"Where did that lady come from?"
32603When I repeated this to Horace Mann, it so vexed his gentle spirit as to cause him to exclaim,"House of Lords?
32603Where should freedom come from?
32603Who can say what joy there is in the rehabilitation of human nature, which is one essential condition of the liberal Christian faith?
32603Who was Maria Mitchell?
32603Why do n''t you ask him about them?"
32603Why do you ask?"
32603is this all?
32603or did it symbolize a sacred truth?

13105''Do you really believe there is anything"all- comprehending"but religion?

131051838.--Which of us has not felt the questionings expressed in this bold fragment?
13105All this I did not understand as I do now; but this destiny of the thinker, and( shall I dare to say it?)
13105Am I wise enough to hear such things?
13105Am I, can I make myself, fit to write an account of half a century of the existence of one of the master- spirits of this world?
13105Am not I, too, one of the band who know not where to lay their heads?
13105Are not these distinctions imaginary?
13105Are the facts very interesting?
13105Are you vexed by my keeping the six volumes of your Goethe?
13105But all occasional poems must be moods, and can a mood have a form fixed and perfect, more than a wave of the sea?''
13105But particular topics were such as these:--"Is the ideal first or last; divination or experience?"
13105But shall I be fit for anything till I have absolutely re- educated myself?
13105But to laugh a whole evening at vulgar nondescripts,--is that an employment for one who was born passionately to love, to admire, to sustain truth?
13105But to what_ aim_ were these powers directed?
13105But two or three things I would ask:--''What do you think of Charlotte''s proposition, that the accomplished pedagogue must be tiresome in society?
13105But what business had he to talk about time?
13105By the way, do you know his"Happy Warrior"?
13105C----, what is life?''
13105Can I ever forget that to your treatment in that crisis of youth I owe the true life,--the love of Truth and Honor?''
13105Can he escape from himself?
13105Can it be that this peace will be mine for five whole months?
13105Can you forgive the past?"

13105Do you know whether I could get Matthieu, or de Thou, or the Memoirs of the House of Nevers?
13105Do you not admire Lord Herbert''s two poems on life, and the conjectures concerning celestial life?
13105Do you remember what he says of the want of brilliancy in Priestley''s moral sentiments?
13105Does it not seem, were we gods, or could steal their fire, we would make men not only happier, but free,--glorious?
13105Does water meet water?--no need of wine, sugar, spice, or even a_ soupçon_ of lemon to remind of a tropical climate?

13105Have you looked through it, and do you remember his intercourse with the Wertherian Plessing?
13105He says:--"How do you think I offered myself?
13105He seems to remind of Mr. E.''s view, and ask,"Why did you not question whether there was not aught else?

13105I had stopped myself one day on the stairs, and asked, how came I here?
13105If I should go, you will be with mother the while, will not you?
13105In future I may sorrow, but can I ever despair?
13105Is it because of the superficial mind, or the believing heart, that I can say this?''
13105Is it because, as a woman, I am bound by a physical- law, which prevents the soul from manifesting itself?
13105Is it then my fault that the palsy of my affections benumbs my whole life?
13105Is not Thy paternal benevolence impatient till such films be dissipated?"
13105Is there any tinge of love in this?
13105Life is worth living, is it not?
13105Meanwhile, I have no fetter on me, no engagement, and, as I look on others,--almost every other,--can I fail to feel this a great privilege?
13105Never?

13105These grub- like lives, undignified even by passion,--these life- long quenchings of the spark divine.--why dost Thou suffer them?

13106As I went along, it seemed as if all I did was for God''s sake; but if it had been, could I now thus fear?
13106At length, as Margaret rose to go, she said:''Is there not anything I can do''for you?''

13106Can I say, our social laws are generally better, or show a nobler insight into the wants of man and woman?

13106How will it end?
13106How would I pile up the votive offerings, and crowd the fires with incense?
13106I am deeply homesick, yet where is that home?
13106I had, afterward, some talk with Mrs. C., whom hitherto I had only_ seen_, for who can speak while her husband is there?
13106I pass whole days abroad; sometimes I take a book, but seldom read it:--why should I, when every stone talks?
13106I thought I should not survive: but if I did, and my child did, was I not cruel to bring another into this terrible world?
13106I would be gone; but whither?
13106If Britomart finds Artegall bound in the enchanter''s spell, can she doubt therefore him whom she has seen in the magic glass?
13106If not on earth, why should we look to heaven?
13106If they thought so before, will they not far more now?
13106In that calm, summer sunset funeral, what eye foresaw the morning of horror, of which it was the sad forerunner?
13106Is it not cruel that I can not earn six hundred dollars a year, living here?
13106Is it not the object of all philosophy, as well as of religion and poetry, to prevent its prevalence?
13106Is it not too long?
13106Is it such as the public should know?''
13106Is not that the very time for me to love most tenderly, when I must see his life in despite of seeming?
13106It was sad; yet who would have seen sadness in me?
13106Long has been my consecration; may I not meet those I hold dear at the altar?
13106Margaret requested to be left alone with her; and to her question,''Are you''willing to die?''
13106May not thine own soul have been made morbid, by retiring too much within?
13106May there not be a mediation, rather than a conflict, between piety and genius?
13106Meantime Ossoli writes:--"Why do you not send me tidings of yourself, every post- day?
13106Must not those who see most truly be ever making statements of the truth to combat this sluggishness, or worldliness?
13106My numerous friendly acquaintances are troubled if they see me ill, and who so affectionate and kind as Mr. and Mrs. S.?
13106Shall I never be able to act and live with persons of views high as my own?
13106She never asked how this would sound, nor whether that would do, nor what would be the effect of saying anything; but simply,''Is it the truth?
13106Should I venture to complain?
13106Speaking of the republic, you say, do not I wish Italy had a great man?
13106Surprised and moved, I said,''Why?''
13106This is rather an odd affair; will it make any difference in our relations?"
13106Was it not a sin to exchange friendly greeting as we parted, and yet tell him no word of what was in my mind?
13106Was not this because spiritual imagination makes light of results, and needs only a germ whence to unfold Olympic splendors?''
13106Were ye the persons who should stab thus?
13106What else are sages, poets, preachers, born to do?
13106When there is anything really lovely and tranquil, he often says,"Would not''_ La Madre_''like that?"
13106Where can I hide till I am given to myself?
13106Where was he?

13106Why am I to love my friend the less for any obstruction in his life?
13106Why did you not try to be in Paris at the opening of the Assembly?
13106Why should not a spirit, so consecrate and intent, develop new laws, and make matter plastic?
13106Why should not---- and I enjoy this fantastic luxury of_ incognito_ also, when we can so much more easily?
13106Why shouldst thou judge of the consciousness of others by thine own?
13106Will you, dear E----, do the same?
13106Would it not suit little---- to go to school to the cardinal flowers in her boat, beneath the great oak- tree?
13106Would not genius be common as light, if men trusted their higher selves?''

13106or, at least, with some steadiness of feeling for me to calculate upon?
13106shall I never know the deep delight of gratitude to any but the All- Knowing?
13106why do they question me, who never question them?
13106why persist to regard as a meteor an orb of assured hope?
23233''Not by her husband?'' 23233 ''Of the black rod?''
23233Are you sure that he is mad?
23233Did you ever see the unfortunate being to whom these books belong?
23233Do you really think me mad?
23233I had two mattrasses on my bed; what did I want with two, when such a worthy creature must lie on the ground? 23233 I have no appetite,"replied Maria, who had previously determined to speak mildly,"why then should I eat?"
23233If the state of this child affected me, what were my feelings at a discovery I made respecting Peggy----? 23233 Let me see it,"demanded Maria impatiently,"You surely are not afraid of trusting me with the effusions of a madman?"
23233Woman,interrupted a sepulchral voice,"what have I to do with thee?"
23233''Indeed what could most women do?
23233''Necessity,''said Mr. S----; why should I reveal his name?
23233''Was it possible?
23233''Why was I,''I would ask thee, but thou didst not heed me,--''cut off from the participation of the sweetest pleasure of life?''
23233--Maria sighed intelligibly.--"Could any thing but madness produce such a disgust for food?"
23233Are we ever to meet again?
23233Are you tired of playing?
23233Are you very busy?
23233At breakfast, Jemima enquired whether she understood French?
23233Besides, might not a woman, anxious to escape, conceal some of the circumstances which made against her?
23233But I calmly silenced her, in the midst of a vulgar harangue, and turning to him, asked,''Why he vainly tormented me?
23233But I must not dwell on this subject.--Will you not endeavour to cherish all the affection you can for me?
23233But where are these reflections leading me?
23233But, on the contrary, when we peruse a skilful writer, who does not coincide in opinion with us, how is the mind on the watch to detect fallacy?
23233By force, or openly, what could be done?
23233Did you fall?
23233Do not tell me, that you are happier without us-- Will you not come to us in Switzerland?
23233Do you think that the creature goes regularly to sleep?
23233Do you want to know?
23233For what am I reserved?
23233For, feeling that I am happier than I ever was, do you wonder at my sometimes dreading that fate has not done persecuting me?
23233Have I any thing more to say to you?
23233Have you seen the baby?
23233Have you yet heard of an habitation for me?
23233He asked me, giving me a kiss,''If I had lost my senses?''
23233He fixed his eyes on me for a moment, then, calling me a fool, asked''How long I intended to continue this pretty farce?
23233Here, alone, a poor solitary individual in a strange land, tied to one spot, and subject to the caprice of another, can I be contented?
23233How are your affairs going on?
23233How can passion gain strength any other way?
23233How can you love to fly about continually-- dropping down, as it were, in a new world-- cold and strange!--every other day?
23233How could you, with your discernment, think it so?
23233How did you do when you were a baby like him?
23233How does the woman deserve to be characterized, who marries one man, with a heart and imagination devoted to another?
23233I HAVE been hurt by indirect enquiries, which appear to me not to be dictated by any tenderness to me.--You ask"If I am well or tranquil?"
23233I burst into tears, I thought it was killing myself-- yet was such a self as I worth preserving?
23233I have the sincerest esteem and affection for you-- but the desire of regaining peace,( do you understand me?)
23233I hope this will be the last letter I shall write from England to you-- are you not tired of this lingering adieu?
23233I shut the door, and, giving him the letter, simply asked,''whether he wrote it, or was it a forgery?''
23233I was indignant, especially when I saw her endeavouring to attract, shall I say seduce?
23233In answer to any question, in his best humour, it was a drawling''What do you say, child?''
23233In the course of near nine- and- twenty years, I have gathered some experience, and felt many_ severe_ disappointments-- and what is the amount?
23233Is it surprising then that they are often overlooked, even by those who are delighted by the same images concentrated by the poet?
23233Is it then surprising, that so many forlorn women, with human passions and feelings, take refuge in infamy?
23233Is she not an object of pity or contempt, when thus sacrilegiously violating the purity of her own feelings?
23233Maria had no fear but of being detained--"Who are you?
23233Now I am going towards the North in search of sunbeams!--Will any ever warm this desolated heart?
23233Now she endeavoured to brace her mind to fortitude, and to ask herself what was to be her employment in her dreary cell?
23233Peggy too was thrifty, and how could she manage to put his plan in execution alone?
23233Perceiving his mistake, I seriously asked him how, using such language to me, he could profess to be my husband''s friend?
23233Remember that it is not the morals of a particular people that I would decry; for are we not all of the same stock?
23233Such angelic confidence demanded the fidelity of honour; but could he, feeling her in every pulsation, could he ever change, could he be a villain?
23233The wind does not appear inclined to change, so I am still forced to linger-- When do you think that you shall be able to set out for France?
23233These are attentions, more grateful to the heart than offers of service-- But why do I foolishly continue to look for them?
23233They were silent-- yet discoursed, how eloquently?
23233This is my third letter; when am I to hear from you?
23233This morning I am better; will you not be glad to hear it?
23233To put her children out to nurse was impossible: how far would her wages go?
23233Venables''door was indeed open to me-- nay, threats and intreaties were used to induce me to return; but why?
23233WHAT, you think that you shall soon be able to dress yourself entirely?
23233Was I, indeed, free?''
23233Was it not to effect her escape, to fly to the succour of her child, and to baffle the selfish schemes of her tyrant-- her husband?
23233Was truth to be expected from one who had been entrapped, kidnapped, in the most fraudulent manner?"
23233Well, this you will say is trifling-- shall I talk about alum or soap?
23233What a torrent of abuse rushed out?
23233What are you about?
23233What did this laugh say, when you could not speak?
23233What do you want to say to me?
23233What have I to do here?
23233What indeed can equal the wretchedness of that state, in which there is no alternative, but to extinguish the affections, or encounter infamy?''
23233What shall we give him to eat?
23233When do the trees put out their leaves?
23233Where indeed could I go from his presence?
23233Whither could I creep for shelter?
23233Who had they to maintain them, but their husbands?
23233Why are positive punishments?
23233Why are women expected to surmount difficulties that men are not equal to?
23233Why do you cry?
23233Why do you smile?
23233Why was I not born a man, or why was I born at all?
23233Will you not grant you have forgotten yourself?
23233Will you not then be a good boy, and come back quickly to play with your girls?
23233Will you walk in the fields?
23233With these assurances, is it extraordinary that I should believe what I wished?
23233Would it not now be possible to arrange your business in such a manner as to avoid the inquietudes, of which I have had my share since your departure?
23233Yes, says papa, and he tapped you on the cheek, you are old enough to learn to eat?
23233and will you endeavour to render that meeting happier than the last?
23233before she enquired--"Why?"
23233but how can I expect that she will be shielded, when my naked bosom has had to brave continually the pitiless storm?
23233can any thing?
23233is he so unruly?"
23233is our life then only to be made up of separations?
23233or, to write very considerately, when will business permit you?
23233what are you?"
23233when do you think of coming home?
23233who can paint thy power; or reflect the evanescent tints of hope fostered by thee?
23233why was I not permitted to perform the last duties of one, and smooth the pillow of death?
23233why were you suffered to adorn a world exposed to the inroad of such stormy elements?"
23233you will ask, what is the result of all this reasoning?
19717A radical? 19717 And Mr. Matthias Pardon?
19717And did she bring her back?
19717And do n''t you sympathise with such an aspiration?
19717And who in the world is Miss Tarrant?
19717And who is Miss Birdseye?
19717Apart--_apart_?
19717Are n''t you going on there to see----"To see whether Miss Tarrant''s mind is formed?
19717Are they very much united, the two young ladies?
19717Are you against our emancipation?
19717Are you going to let ten years elapse again before you come?
19717Are you really going? 19717 But did she bring them round, did she swell the host that is prepared to march under her banner?"
19717But we ca n''t pretend to be on the other side, just to start her up, can we?
19717Capacity for what?
19717Convince me of what, sir?
19717Dear me, what''s the good of being a Southerner?
19717Did n''t you fight once?
19717Did n''t you see her when she returned?
19717Did n''t you think her very reasonable?
19717Did you get in on purpose?
19717Do n''t you care for human progress?
19717Do n''t you want any promise at present?
19717Do you flee before the individual male?
19717Do you know that''s very cruel to me? 19717 Do you live here all alone?"
19717Do you make it a reproach to me that I happen to have a little money? 19717 Do you mean on account of the negroes?"
19717Do you mean the law- courts? 19717 Do you mean the-- a-- rather striking young lady whom I met in Boston a year ago last October?
19717Do you mean to say your sister''s a roaring radical?
19717Do you mean your voting and preaching and all that sort of thing?
19717Do you mean, to give_ you_ up?
19717Do you really believe all that pretty moonshine you talked last night? 19717 Do you regard us, then, simply as lovely baubles?"
19717Do you think she is very dreadful?
19717Do you understand German? 19717 Do you want me to give up----?"
19717Do you wish me to conceal----?
19717Does it, should you say-- our scheme of work?
19717Does n''t it look as if you had my sympathy, when I get into a car on purpose to see you home-- one of the principal agitators?
19717Does she give public addresses?
19717Does she speak often-- is there any chance of my hearing her now?
19717Does your scheme of work exclude all distraction, all recreation, then?
19717Fail you? 19717 For Miss Verena?
19717Have n''t you seen her? 19717 Have you been in Europe?"
19717Have you ever heard me? 19717 Have you forgotten that too?
19717Have you got money?
19717Heard you? 19717 How could I see her?
19717How much can we count upon them? 19717 How should I be?
19717I thought her home was in Charles Street?
19717I want to give myself up to others; I want to know everything that lies beneath and out of sight, do n''t you know? 19717 If she was not going to like me, why in the world did she write to me?"
19717If you thought I lived in New York, why in the world did n''t you come and see me?
19717In sympathy with what, dear madam?
19717Is it a party? 19717 Is it possible you do n''t sleep yet?"
19717Is it something terrible?
19717Is it something very Bostonian? 19717 Is she making a speech there?"
19717Is this a South End car?
19717Just as I am?
19717Look here, Miss Olive, what did you write to me to come and see you for?
19717Look here, Miss Tarrant; do you want to save Harvard College, or do you not?
19717Mrs. Farrinder, the celebrated----?
19717My dear madam,said Ransom,"does a woman consist of nothing but her opinions?
19717Of what kind?
19717Oh yes; where do you live?
19717Oh, indeed; and your subject, my dear young lady?
19717See her at home? 19717 So why should you make a distinction?"
19717That''s what they call in Boston being very''thoughtful,''Mrs. Luna said,"giving you the Back Bay( do n''t you hate the name?)
19717The ladies?
19717The truth? 19717 Thinks it?"
19717To whom do you mean, Olive? 19717 Verena-- is that her name?"
19717Want to try a little inspiration?
19717Well, did she convince you?
19717Well, now,_ is_ he to be respected?
19717Well, perhaps, after all, I have a general idea,he confessed;"but do n''t you see how this little reunion will give me a chance to fix it?"
19717Well, what is it, then, since she continues to remain silent?
19717What I mean is-- is your sympathy a sympathy with our sex, or a particular interest in Miss Tarrant?
19717What did I do?
19717What do you know about ladies?
19717What do you mean?
19717What do you want to make then?
19717What good will that do_ you_? 19717 What is it, then?"
19717What kind of meetings do you refer to? 19717 What the deuce does she want of me now?"
19717What_ have_ you got?
19717Where do you live?
19717Who is that charming creature?
19717Whom do you mean by''us''--your whole delightful sex? 19717 Why in the world?
19717Why, is it going to be a spiritual_ sà © ance_?
19717Why, you do n''t mean to say you do n''t believe in our cause?
19717With her grace and beauty, her general style, how could she help that?
19717You do n''t mean to say you ai n''t going to be supported?
19717You do n''t mean to say you are converted-- already?
19717You do n''t mean to say you are going already? 19717 You might have known what?"
19717You see, what I should like to know is this: do you consider that she belongs to you, or that she belongs to the people? 19717 You would stay if you liked it, would n''t you?"
19717Your work?
19717After this she added, with a friendliness more personal,"Ai n''t you going to see your cousin too?"
19717And I did n''t feel the want of a vote to- day at all, did you?"
19717And do they mean to go on living together for ever?"
19717And then-- won''t Verena tell her?"
19717And where, in Cambridge, do her family live?"
19717Are you going into that business?"
19717Are you going to show me some?"
19717Are you not going to pay your sister another visit?"
19717Are you not visiting?"
19717Are you very ambitious?
19717But for us?"
19717But he put out his hand to Verena and said,"Good- bye, Miss Tarrant; are we not to have the pleasure of hearing you in New York?
19717But they had been the happiest days, for when causes were embodied in foreigners( what else were the Africans?
19717Could anything, in effect, be less underhand than such an indifference to what she supposed to be the best opportunities for carrying on a flirtation?
19717Could n''t they run Miss Verena together?
19717Did n''t I tell you of the sensation she produced there, and of what I heard from Boston about it?
19717Did n''t I tell you that last summer?
19717Did n''t you know I had been to Europe?"
19717Did you come out on wheels?
19717Do n''t all the trouble of humanity come from our being pressed back?
19717Do n''t you recollect that?"
19717Do you know''Faust''?"
19717Do you mean to say I did n''t give you that"Transcript,"with the report of her great speech?
19717Do you really take the ground that your sex has been without influence?
19717Do you remember a party you gave, a year ago last October, to which Miss Chancellor came, and another young lady, who made a wonderful speech?"
19717Do you want to keep her all to yourself?"
19717Does Miss Chancellor like her as much as ever?"
19717Farrinder?"
19717Farrinder?"
19717Had Miss Chancellor no faith in her girlhood?
19717Had n''t she come out yet in public?
19717Had she not said that Verena often went back there for visits of several days-- that her mother had been ill and she gave her much care?
19717Has your sister?"
19717Have n''t you?"
19717He had n''t seen her there, and he had no recollection of having encountered any mention at the time( last June, was it?)
19717Her eyes charged him a moment with this perverse intention; then she exclaimed,"Basil Ransom,_ are_ you in love with that creature?"
19717How can I fail?"
19717How can I know?
19717How did the ladies on Beacon Street feel about the ballot?
19717How do you get on with Olive Chancellor?"
19717How long did you expect her to endure it?"
19717How much?
19717I have asked you before-- are you prepared to give up?"
19717If it gave one time, if it gave one leisure, was not that in itself a high motive?
19717If she belongs to you, why do n''t you bring her out?"
19717If they were all in all to each other, what more could they want?
19717Impressed too?
19717Influence?
19717Instead of answering this sally, Ransom said,"Are you not going one of these days to Boston?
19717Is n''t Miss Chancellor your cousin?"
19717It was her theory that Verena( in spite of the blood of the Greenstreets, and, after all, who were they?)
19717Miss Chancellor herself had thought so much on the vital subject; would not she make a few remarks and give them some of her experiences?
19717Moreover, he felt that any gentleman who should lead her to success would win her esteem; he might even attract her more powerfully-- who could tell?
19717Oh, you do n''t know?
19717Olive repeated;"in public?
19717Olive, why do n''t you take him to your female convention?"
19717Perhaps she should take a house in Washington; did he ever hear of that little place?
19717Ransom demurred to the implication that Miss Tarrant was famous; if she were famous, would n''t she be in the New York papers?
19717She turned an instant, glanced at him, and then said,"Do you think so?"
19717She was Miss Tarrant, the daughter of the healer; had n''t she mentioned his name?
19717She wished immensely to be generous, and how could one be generous unless one ran a risk?
19717That he should agree she did not in the least expect of him; how could a Mississippian agree?
19717The Abolitionists brought it on, and were not the Abolitionists principally females?
19717The stronger?
19717Then Olive exclaimed to herself,"Is it a plot?
19717Then she added:"Did you come here to meet her-- the inspirational speaker?"
19717Therefore, would Miss Chancellor just tell him this: How long did she expect to hold her back; how long did she expect a humble admirer to wait?
19717Thorough study of the question he cared for most-- was not the chance for_ that_ an infinitely desirable good?
19717To my parents?"
19717Was it not one''s duty to put one''s self in the best conditions for such action?
19717Was it possible she did n''t know the kind Verena was of, and with what vulgar aspirants to notoriety did she confound her?
19717Was it too much to ask whether he could tell her at least in what manner she had offended him?
19717We could n''t possibly make it worse, could we?
19717Well, is her mind formed?"
19717What do you call success?"
19717What do you say to Helen of Troy and the fearful carnage she excited?
19717What does it matter?
19717What have I done?"
19717What was her name?--Miss Tarrant?
19717What was the matter with him?
19717When Ransom approached her and, raising his hat with a smile, said,"Shall I stop this car for you, Miss Birdseye?"
19717When the great reforms should be consummated, when the day of justice should have dawned, would not life perhaps be rather poor and pale?
19717Whereupon Olive insisted"Will you come very soon?"
19717Why did n''t you show her to me?
19717Why do we talk of this?
19717Why had she made advances, if she wanted to pinch him this way?
19717Why in the world ca n''t they let her alone?"
19717Why should he share, and what was more natural than that the things which concerned her closely should not concern him at all?
19717Why should n''t tenderness come in?
19717Why should she be so insincere?
19717Why should she?
19717Why was she morbid, and why was her morbidness typical?
19717Why, what''s the use of that?
19717Why, you do n''t imagine that pure voice is to be hushed?"
19717Will you come and see me?"
19717Would Miss Chancellor be willing to divide a-- the-- well, he might call it the responsibilities?
19717You are under no obligation to tell Miss Chancellor everything that happens to you, are you?"
19717You do n''t think him plain?
19717You only stay to- morrow?
19717_ Must_ she go, Miss Olive?"
19717did n''t she know what a card that would be?
19717do n''t you know she took her to Europe?
19717have you forgotten that too?
19717he asked himself; five thousand, ten thousand, fifteen thousand a year?
19717her success at the convention was very great?"
19717in what numbers would they flock to our standard?
19717or an old monarchical_ à © migrà ©_ from the Languedoc?
19717was he not like a French_ gentilhomme de province_ after the Revolution?
19717was she not coming to stir them up in New York?
6855Afraid? 6855 Am I interfering with your work to- day?"
6855And do you call that kind of thing new?
6855And does he, of all people in the world, presume to sit in judgment on you?
6855And how did it end?
6855And how long did all this take, Ideala?
6855And if you do n''t what will become of you? 6855 And in that case,"she continued,"I suppose my duty would be to evade the law, and act on my conscience?"
6855And that made you desperate?
6855And what did you do?
6855And what did you say, Ideala?
6855And what did you think when you found he was not there?
6855And what have you had?
6855And where have you come from, Ideala?
6855And who on earth is Lorrimer?
6855And you did sleep, Ideala?
6855And you propose to be an Aspasia to this modern Pericles?
6855And you went?
6855And you would like to see the Hospital?
6855Are they not beautiful? 6855 Are they not?"
6855As one man''s meat is another man''s poison?
6855But are men clinging to it?
6855But before, when his moods varied so often, did it ever seem to you that he was troubled and dissatisfied with himself? 6855 But do you mean to say society is less sinful than it was?"
6855But how am I to help it? 6855 But mentally?"
6855But supposing he did mean to be rude? 6855 But what did he mean when he talked of conscience and scruples?"
6855But what else could I have done?
6855But what is the reason of all this dissatisfaction?
6855But what_ would_ satisfy you? 6855 But where?"
6855But why did you marry him, then?
6855But why do you talk of the death of manliness? 6855 But why may I not?"
6855But why_ should_ she bear it?
6855But you have not told us what you propose to do, Ideala?
6855But, Ideala,Claudia protested,"what is the use of drawing degrading comparisons between ourselves and other nations?
6855But, Ideala,I asked her, after a little pause,"have you never felt that what you are doing is wrong?"
6855By- the- by, what was the bet?
6855Can I go to her now?
6855Can you read between the lines of that letter?
6855Could you take anything?
6855Dare you?
6855Did he ever say anything that showed he was yielding to a strong inclination which he could not justify and would not conquer?
6855Did he leave no note, no message for me?
6855Do n''t you see how ill this girl is? 6855 Do you know Mrs. Polter at the fish- shop?
6855Do you know what I have been doing?
6855Do you know what there is beyond those hills?
6855Do you live much in cloudland?
6855Do you think it was the same with him?
6855Do you think so?
6855Do you think that, although I love another man, it would be right for me to go back and live with my husband?
6855Does Mr. Lorrimer suffer in that way?
6855Does she seem at all unhappy?
6855Englishmen in the 5th, and some other regiments, are apt to have but the one idea----"And that is?
6855Even on the last occasion?
6855Had I better give it up, or re- write it?
6855Has she written?
6855Have n''t you done being surprised yet?
6855Have you felt the fascination of the trains? 6855 Have you noticed that they go in pairs?
6855He''s a charming fellow-- don''t you think so?
6855How can I help you?
6855How could I want you to help me when I do n''t mean to do anything? 6855 How do you mean''a two- reason man,''Ideala?"
6855How do you suppose all this is going to end?
6855I am free, am I not, to dispose of myself as I like--to give myself to whomsoever I please?
6855I said I''d bring her, now did n''t I?
6855I suppose you know him? 6855 Ideala, do you remember telling me once that you had a strange feeling about yourself?
6855Ideala, how_ dare_ you?
6855Ideala, what nonsense are you talking about sculptors and newspaper- boys?
6855Is anything the matter?
6855Is he kind to you?
6855Is there a chance for Lorrimer?
6855Is there anything wrong? 6855 Is this death?"
6855Like a top-- why not? 6855 May I look at the books?"
6855May n''t I stay here and read?
6855Mr. Lorrimer is very kind to all of you, I suppose?
6855Must I give you up?
6855Now, are you going to obey me?
6855Oh, Ideala, do you know nothing of the charm of colour?
6855Oh, is n''t it very strange, the life in China?
6855Oh, you are obstinate, are you?
6855Or is it not just possible that he was disappointed when he found you better than he had supposed? 6855 Shall I go to hell?"
6855Shall I take it down for you?
6855Something for which you can get legal redress?
6855Spooney, then?
6855Talking about charm,the sculptor broke in, enthusiastically,"I suppose you have n''t seen the new picture,''Venus getting into the Bath?''
6855Tell me what you thought of me when I came to you that first day? 6855 The feeling_ I_ excite?"
6855Then you are not content, after all, to be merely a poem?
6855Then you mean to be happy in spite of him? 6855 They go their own way, too, do they not, and are lost?"
6855This is delightful, is it not?
6855Unconsciousness of what?
6855Well?
6855Were you happy while you were with Lorrimer, Ideala?
6855What I want to do is to make women discontented-- you have heard of a noble spirit of discontent? 6855 What do you call a gentleman, then?"
6855What do you think?
6855What dreadful mistake did I make this evening?
6855What has happened?
6855What is it? 6855 What is the matter with you to- day?"
6855What is the matter?
6855What is the meaning of this?
6855What is your conscience troubling you about now?
6855What madness this?
6855What makes a man one?
6855What on earth do you mean, Ideala? 6855 What sort of a person are you, I wonder?"
6855What spirit of dissatisfaction has got hold of you?
6855What? 6855 What_ is_ she doing with her other hand?"
6855When are you coming to go on with your work?
6855Who knows what pain is at the bottom of it all?
6855Why do n''t you go to your husbands and brothers to be set right, as of old?
6855Why do n''t you help me?
6855Why do you call the opening verses a riddle?
6855Why do you try to?
6855Why on earth does a lady always carry her purse in her hand?
6855Why wait till I''ve gone? 6855 Why was he not there that day to receive you?"
6855Why, where are you looking for it?
6855Why?
6855Why?
6855Will it always be like this?
6855Will you read it for me, Mr. Lloyd? 6855 Will you speak to her, Claudia, and see what your influence will do?"
6855Wo n''t it do?
6855Wo n''t you kiss me once after my long, long voyage?
6855Would he have known you had a conscience, do you think, if he had had none himself?
6855Would you mind being there to receive him?
6855Would you?
6855You are not afraid to touch me-- you do n''t mind?
6855You come to me from Ideala?
6855You do not think people write books about what they really feel?
6855You have been happy, then?
6855You have read, I suppose?
6855You know Mr. Lorrimer very well, then, I suppose?
6855You would like to do as well as to be?
6855Your husband has done you some great wrong?
6855_ He_--who, in God''s name?
6855_ I_? 6855 ''What is she like?'' 6855 Am I never jealous? 6855 And downward slopes a beam of light divine, The perfumed clouds are cleft: he looks up wond''ring-- Looks up-- what does he there before the shrine? 6855 And how about The rugged brows of those old rocks, storm- rent and hoary, Are quivering in their grim surprise?
6855And how has it been with you since your return?"
6855And should she fly and leave her wretched wealth?
6855And then, addressing us all, he asked:"Did I ever tell you about her coming to borrow five shillings from me one day?
6855And was it a religious difficulty?
6855And was not the loneliness itself an added misery?
6855And was she impure?
6855And was she low?
6855And was there never a one in the whole wide world to help her to bear her own sorrow and ease her pain?
6855And what then?"
6855And where was she now?
6855Are men self- denying?
6855Are respectability and imbecility nearly allied, I wonder?
6855Are they disinterested?
6855Are they scrupulous to a shadow of the truth?
6855As they left the building Lorrimer asked her:"Where on earth did my cousin meet_ you?
6855Barbarous, do n''t you think it?
6855But do n''t you think it absurd to cling to old customs that are dying a natural death?
6855But have you never been conscious of the tender pressure that is brought to bear when a desirable suitor offers?
6855But if such an idea were placed before you, and you did not know the language in which it was written, what good would it do you?
6855But many and many a time, and in many a way, she had made glad hearts by deeds like that; and now where was she?
6855But should I always suffer for their false, inhuman pride?
6855But what do you think I did?
6855But what does she mean by''On with rush and ring''?"
6855But why not educate us to the limit of our capacity, and leave it there?
6855But will you kindly tell me where a woman''s duty to her husband ends and her duty to herself begins?
6855But, Lorrimer-- what sort of a man was he?
6855Can you not free your mind from the trammels of it, and grasp something higher, better, and nobler?
6855Claudia had maintained latterly that her illness arose more from mental than from physical trouble; did this explain it?
6855Could she?
6855Did he, or did he not, mean it?
6855Did it always make him happy to have you there?"
6855Did the Archangel Michael, standing there Upon her left, in shining silver, hear?
6855Did you ever read that paper of his,''After Death,''in the_ Nineteenth Century_?
6855Do I fail in any duty of life since I knew him in which I previously succeeded?
6855Do n''t you love the time of nasturtiums?
6855Do you hear?
6855Do you like flowers?"
6855Do you not know that he is mine, mine through every change?
6855Do you not understand what I want?
6855Do you read the reviews?
6855Do you still write verses?"
6855Do you think it possible for men, while they cling to it, to''reel back into the beast and be no more''?"
6855Do you think my suffering might be taken as expiation for his sins?
6855Do you think we are allowed the happiness of bearing each other''s burdens in that way if we will?
6855Do you think women are less brave?
6855Do you think you did?
6855Do you wonder that some of us ask: Why should we keep ourselves pure if impurity is to be our bedfellow?
6855Does this seem fanciful to you?
6855For what_ did_ she know about him?
6855For why do they keep us pure?
6855Have they kissed her--- The angels that bend down to pull Our buds of the Beautiful, And whispered their own little Sister?"
6855Have you?"
6855He took her to the station, and when they parted he said,"You will write and tell me?"
6855How are you getting on?
6855How can we, any of us, say we owe nothing to society, when we owe every pleasure in life to it?
6855How can you think it?"
6855How could she harbour suspicion when she did not know what to suspect?
6855How many_ gentlemen_ have you met in the course of your life?
6855How was it you married him?
6855I am, therefore, always prepared to find myself mistaken, even when I am surest about a thing-- for What am I?
6855I can only answer with another question: Why are we what we are?
6855I do remember it, and it comforts me; but why?"
6855I exclaimed, involuntarily,"what have they done to you?
6855I exclaimed,"and why?"
6855I felt responsible for this last hard blow; had I done well?
6855I must get some one to try him first''--and he looked at me--''Perhaps you would n''t mind?''
6855I suppose you are an Englishman?"
6855I suppose you go over for shopping,& c.?
6855I suppose you know him?"
6855I suppose you will allow that she has a duty to herself?
6855I suppose, now, you would n''t like to do that?"
6855I want to know what you mean by that phrase?"
6855I wonder if you can understand what the shame of that doubt was?
6855I wonder why I told you?"
6855Ideala sighed, and after a short pause she said:"I have been wondering what makes it possible for a woman to love a man?
6855If I devote my life to him, as I propose, who would be hurt by it?
6855If I had never known the horror of doubt, how could I have known what certainty is?
6855If he thought he was being deceived, do you think it likely he would feel bound to be scrupulous?"
6855If men were all they ought to be, would n''t we obey them gladly?
6855If your example were followed by all the unhappy people in the world, how would it end, do you think?
6855In my last letter I bade him good- bye, adding''since that is what you wish,''and he has replied:''I never said I wished it; will you remember that?''
6855In what have I changed for the worse?
6855Is it real or pretended, your unconsciousness?"
6855Is she ill?"
6855Is there any wonder that we are losing what is best in life when only women are left to defend it?
6855It is horrid to feel you do n''t deserve the confidence that is placed in you, Bishop, is n''t it?"
6855It is moral courage that makes a man, and where do you find it now?
6855It is sin that degrades, and sin is something that corrupts our minds, is it not?
6855It was Tourgenieff, was it not, who said that the age of talkers must precede the age of practical reformers?
6855Ladies and gentlemen, do you or do you not consider that this lady has won her bet?"
6855Lloyd, can you lend me five shillings?''
6855Mind?"
6855No one who could be all her own?
6855Now, are you satisfied?"
6855Or cast more subtle scents abroad upon the night?
6855Or is he priest, or is he acolyte, Or layman devotee who prays in novice robes bedight?
6855Or raise such sun- kissed lips aglow to meet cool showers?
6855Out of the castled- gate she hurried forth: What matter''d where she went, to east or west?
6855Perhaps if I heard your name----?"
6855Presently I asked:"But why not have a legal separation, a divorce, from your husband now?"
6855Shall I read it?"
6855Shall I tell, Ideala?"
6855Should I be less pure- minded, and would he be less upright in all his dealings?
6855Should she tell him of those things which she had not been able to confide to him on the last occasion of their meeting?
6855Should you not say that in acting against my conscience I acted immorally?"
6855That satisfies, does it not?"
6855The feeding and flattering?"
6855The leafless tree may pray for the time of buds and blossoms; will the time come the sooner?
6855The rush and rattle of the train shaped itself into a sort of sub- chorus to my thoughts as we sped through the pleasant fields:_ Was it right?
6855The story ends there, but I like it, do n''t you?
6855Their pungent scent, and their colours?
6855There had been little joy in her life, and she had borne her cross long and bravely; what wonder that she should rebel at last, and claim her reward?
6855This suggested new possibilities to Claudia, and when Ideala joined us presently, she asked, abruptly:"Are you going back to China?"
6855Was Aspasia vile?
6855Was it right?
6855Was there any witness?"
6855Was there anything in your conduct that might have given him a low estimate of your character to begin with?
6855Was there no peace on earth for Ideala?
6855We should never have received them in society; why do we tolerate them in books?
6855Were you very much in love with him?"
6855What are you going to do?"
6855What could I do?
6855What does she want?''
6855What help is there in the contemplation of perfection ready made?
6855What is the use of offering people everything but the one thing needful?
6855What matter''d peasant''s warning that the sand Was shifting ever, and the rushing tide Gave them no quarter whom it overtook?
6855What power would take you from me now, when there is no one else in the whole wide world for me_ but_ you?
6855What was I to say?
6855What was the matter with her?
6855When things can be legally right though morally wrong, can they not also be morally right though legally wrong?"
6855Whence comes this bursting sense of life, and love, and gladness, This pain of pleasure, perfected, without alloy?
6855Where are our men?
6855Where is our manhood?
6855Who knows?
6855Why did you not leave your husband when Lorrimer advised you to?"
6855Why do you want to go?"
6855Why, if we are inferior, should there be any fear of making us superior?
6855Why, what are you going to do?"
6855Will he also, when he grows up, have''the conscience of a saint among his warring senses''?
6855Will it be so for ever?"
6855Will you kindly take us to the Palace this evening?
6855Will you sit beside me here?
6855Will you?"
6855Would it always be so?
6855Would she ever see it again in the old way?
6855Would such a state of things account for moods that vary perpetually, I wonder?"
6855Would you have me believe that he was sent to me then only for an evil purpose?
6855Would you have me turn from it and call it sin, when I feel that God Himself is the giver?"
6855You call this rank irreverence, do you not?
6855You did not write the word, you only left a space, and do you know how I filled it at first?
6855You do not think ill of me: why do you think ill of him?"
6855You were talking at random, surely?
6855You would have society turned topsy- turvy, and all for what?
6855and is this joy?
6855and is this madness?
6855and was it madness?
6855and was she learning to see again?
6855exclaimed the Bishop, waking up with a start--"whole fabric of society going to pieces?
6855how can you be so tranquil?
6855how did it ever come to this?"
6855it is not a sort of Woman''s Rights business, and all that, you are going in for, is it?
6855she exclaimed,"could he-- could any one-- think such a thing possible?"
6855that you thought you would be made to go down into some great depth of sin and suffering, in order to learn what it is you have to teach?"
6855then whence came her power to raise others?
6855whence comes this feeling?
6855where else do flowers Open their velvet lids like these to greet the light?
6855why can we not be true to ourselves?"
6855why did you tell me?
43502''Appy? 43502 Dizzy?
43502Fear?
43502Got us----?
43502How did you get here so early?
43502I knew you''d be surprised-- wasn''t it clever of me to manage it? 43502 Intriguing to get hold of?"
43502Keep quiet, cawn''t yer?
43502Mrs. or Miss?
43502Political dynamite,eh?
43502W''y do n''t the men''elp ye to get your rights?
43502Women--"children"--wot about the_ men_?
43502Yes, how about_ that?_) MISS E. B.
43502_) MISS L. Accept it? 43502 ''E was awskin''me:''Ow would you like men to st''y at''ome and do the fam''ly washin''?"
43502''Elp us?
43502''Oo among you workin''men''as the most comfortable''omes?
43502''Oo are you talkin''to?
43502''Oo yer talkin''to?
43502''Oo''s Pilcher?
43502''Ow''re we goin''to know if you ca n''t tell us?
43502(_ A great shout._) Yes-- seems funny, does n''t it?
43502(_ Debating with herself._) You do n''t know about her, I suppose?
43502(_ Hastily._) At least the papers said so, did n''t they?
43502(_ He stares bewildered._ JEAN_ drops her hands in her lap and steadies her voice._) She went away from you, then?
43502(_ Her watchful eye, leaving her husband for a moment, catches_ MISS LEVERING''S_ little involuntary gesture._) What''s the matter?
43502(_ Hurries after_ MISS LEVERING_ as she advances to speak to the_ FREDDYS,_& c._) Why, God bless my soul, do you realise that''s_ drains_?
43502(_ Laughter._) MR. P. Per''aps''e does n''t know much about women?
43502(_ Pause._) After all... women are much more conservative than men-- aren''t they?
43502(_ Quite low._) Then do n''t you know you must pay me in kind?
43502(_ Raising his voice._) Why should I remind anybody of what I want only to forget?
43502(_ She is about to speak, he advances on her._) Do you deny that you returned my letters unopened?
43502(_ She stands looking out into the void._) One woman''s mishap?--what is that?
43502(_ Voice_:"Mill?
43502(_ With a sudden thought._) What has changed her?
43502(_ With sudden change of tone._) Why do I waste time over myself?
43502(_ goes straight on as if she had not heard_)--man asking: if the women get full citizenship, and a war is declared, will the women fight?
43502--don''t you think?
43502... To have lived through_ that_ when she was... how old?
43502A pilgrimage?
43502And did n''t he?
43502And if Geoffrey Stonor offered you-- what''s called"reparation"--you''d refuse it?
43502And it''s like that?
43502And it_ is n''t_ so?
43502And still no work?
43502And what did they decide?
43502And what difference did it make?
43502And why should n''t she?
43502And why"could n''t"you?
43502And you''re unchanged-- is that it?
43502Angelic?
43502Any complication?
43502Any men here belongin''to the Labour Party?
43502Are all who avail themselves of Lord Rowton''s hostels, are_ they_ all angels?
43502Are we down-''earted?
43502Are we down-''earted?
43502Are you quite ready?
43502Are you threatening me?
43502Are you?
43502Are-- you-- married?
43502Are_ they_ all''appy?
43502At the door I saw the helmets of two policemen, and I said to myself:"What sort of crime shall I have to sit and hear about?
43502Bless me, am I such a chicken?
43502But the time has come when a woman may look about her, and say,"What general significance has my secret pain?
43502But where did you go-- dressed like that?
43502But(_ pity and annoyance blended in her tone_)--you care about him still, Vida?
43502But_ how_ did you get here?
43502Ca n''t you do what the other four hundred have done?
43502Ca n''t you see that this crazed campaign you''d start her on-- even if it''s successful, it can only be so through the help of men?
43502Can you tell me, my man, which are the ones that-- a-- that make the disturbances?
43502Could n''t you see the men were at their old game?
43502D''you think_ we_ ought to st''y''ome and wash the dishes?
43502Did he say anything?
43502Did n''t Mr. Greatorex say women had been politely petitioning Parliament for forty years?
43502Did n''t know?
43502Did n''t the women sit quiet till ten minutes to closing time?
43502Did n''t you say the 1.10?
43502Did nobody want you to teach French or sing the little songs?
43502Did you hear what Mrs. Heriot said about him?
43502Did you know she''d got that old horror to give Lady John £ 8,000 for her charity before he died?
43502Did you mean you are ready to do that?
43502Did you want to?
43502Do I always talk about Stonor?
43502Do n''t you know there''s a third of the women o''this country ca n''t afford the luxury of stayin''in their''omes?
43502Do n''t you think_ they_ know there''s been more said and written about it in these ten days since the scene, than in the ten years before it?
43502Do you deny that you refused to see me-- and that, when I persisted, you vanished?
43502Do you know that out of every hundred women in this country eighty- two are wage- earning women?
43502Do you mean then that, after all-- it lived?
43502Do you reely think we tyke them there low wyges because we got a_ lykin''_ for low wyges?
43502Do you think the result should make us proud of our policy?
43502Does it''join on''to anything?"
43502Does she come every week- end?
43502Does the Government want to punish_ all_ women because they do n''t like the manners of a handful?
43502For what are you thanking God?
43502For what was Mrs. Freddy too happily married and all the rest?
43502For what?
43502Freedom?
43502Geoffrey Stonor is n''t going to be-- a little too old for you?
43502Geoffrey Stonor?
43502Go?
43502Had n''t it been just as"favourable"before?
43502Has Miss Levering come down yet?
43502Has she never paid it back?
43502Has_ she_ been seeing visions too?
43502Have I ever failed?
43502Have n''t you noticed that all their worst disturbances come when men are in charge?
43502Have you got your lesson(_ with a little broken laugh_)_ by heart_ at last?
43502Help you?
43502How d''ye do, Mr. Freddy?
43502How did the working man get the Suffrage, we asked ourselves?
43502How do they know what''s womanly?
43502How do you do, Mr. Stonor?
43502How do you do, aunt?
43502How do you do?
43502How do you do?
43502How do you do?
43502How do you do?
43502How do you know?
43502How do you know?
43502How do you know?
43502How do_ you_ know?
43502How many Platos are there here in this crowd?
43502How many Shakespeares are there in all England to- day?
43502How will he do that?
43502How_ are_ you to know if we ca n''t somehow manage to tell you?
43502How_ could_ you?
43502I began to say to myself:"Is n''t it time the women lent a hand?"
43502I forget, do you know Mr. Stonor personally, or(_ smiling_) are you just dazzled from afar?
43502I s''y, Miss,''oo killed cock robin?
43502I wonder if they did spit?
43502I?
43502I?
43502If I gave you that much-- for your little projects-- what would you give me?
43502If I hear that you persist in it I shall have to---- MISS L. What?
43502If everybody said we were nice, well- behaved women, who''d come to hear us?
43502If it wus only to use fur_ our_ comfort, d''ye think many o''you workin''men would be found turnin''over their wyges to their wives?
43502If the House of Commons wo n''t give you justice, why do n''t you go to the House of Lords?
43502If the vote ai n''t done us any good,''ow''ll it do the women any good?
43502If the women want the vote w''y ai n''t they''ere to s''y so?"
43502If women must be freed by women, we have need of such as--(_her eyes go to_ JEAN''S_ door_)--who knows?
43502In the case of this poor little abandoned working girl, what man can be the fit judge of her deeds in that awful moment of half- crazed temptation?
43502In_ our_ debt?
43502Is it a woman, I wondered?
43502Is n''t it angelic of him?
43502Is n''t she wonderful?
43502Is n''t that so?
43502Is n''t the phrase consecrated to a different class?
43502Is she here with you?
43502Is she here?
43502Is she one of them?
43502Is that true?
43502Is this a burglar coming along between the two big policemen, or will it be a murderer?
43502Is this the effect seeing Geoffrey has?
43502Is your grandfather worse?
43502It''s only an effort to meet the greatest evil in the world?
43502It''s so strange, Geoffrey, to see a man like you as much deluded as the Hyde Park loafers who say to Ernestine Blunt,"Who''s hurt_ your_ feelings?"
43502Just tell me, my child, is it all right?
43502Let me see, was n''t a deputation sent to you not long ago?
43502Let us see, how we shall put it-- when the time comes-- shall we?
43502MISS L. And now...?
43502MISS L. At eleven at night?
43502MISS L. At last?
43502MISS L. But for the tramp population less conducive to savouriness, do n''t you think, than-- baths?
43502MISS L. Do you picture the Suffragettes sitting in sackcloth?
43502MISS L. Do you?
43502MISS L. I-- I----(_ Stumbles and stops._)(_ Talking and laughing increases._"Wot''s''er name?"
43502MISS L. Is that what he says?
43502MISS L. Then why keep up that old pretence?
43502MISS L. To keep you and her apart?
43502MISS L. Well, have they primed you?
43502MISS L. What terrible thing?
43502MISS L. What?
43502MISS L. When did you write this?
43502MISS L. Why could that great, all- powerful body do nothing?
43502MISS L. Why do you think I know?
43502MISS L. You are_ not_ certain?
43502MISS L. You think we would n''t be glad to go straight to the goal?
43502MRS. F. Homeless women?
43502MRS. F. My friends?
43502MRS. F. Who got him to?
43502MRS. F. You are n''t saying you think it was a good way to get what they wanted?
43502MRS. F._ Here?_(_ Shrugs._) I do n''t beat the air.
43502MRS. H. How did_ you_ happen to be there?
43502May I?
43502Mine?
43502Miss Levering is?
43502Mr. Greatorex-- he''s a Radical, is n''t he?
43502My dear(_ to_ MISS LEVERING), have your things been sent down?
43502My engagement?
43502No?
43502Not down yet-- the Elusive One?
43502Not to your mother?
43502Nothing reprehensible in what_ she_ said, was there?
43502Now, are n''t you glad I brought you?
43502Oh, have you been hearing him speak?
43502Oh, is it question time?
43502Oh, is she?
43502Oh, is that true?
43502Oh, shut up, cawn''t yer?
43502Oh, was it like the papers said?
43502Oh, why did you do it?
43502Oh?
43502Oh?
43502Only one vacancy?
43502Or does wrong- doing in a man not matter?
43502Or(_ her eyes blaze_) did you dare to be afraid I would n''t?
43502Power!--_you?_ JEAN.
43502Rather too much, is n''t there, little girl?
43502Run away?
43502Said that, did he?
43502Shall I tell you a secret?
43502She went away from you?
43502Slight pause._)(_ The words escaping from her in a miserable cry_) Why did you desert her?
43502So that justice should n''t miscarry-- wasn''t it?
43502Soper?
43502Still talking over the Shelter plans?
43502Still, you_ are_ an advocate of the Suffrage, are n''t you?
43502Than men?
43502That she was four years older than you?
43502That you have very pink cheeks?
43502The only question is upon what terms shall she continue to be in?
43502Then what''s all the chatterment about?
43502They are often asked elsewhere; and I would like to ask in return: Since when was human society held to exist for its handful of geniuses?
43502They study music by thousands; where''s their Beethoven?
43502This afternoon?
43502Till----?
43502To- day?
43502Trent?
43502W''y do n''t you stop in it?
43502Was that because you would n''t marry her?
43502Was that why you... was_ that_ why?
43502Was there never a mysogynist of my sex who ended by deciding to make an exception?
43502We were so happy out there in the summer- house, were n''t we?
43502Well, Mrs. Freddy, what do you think of your friends now?
43502Well, did he get back alive?
43502Well, how spoilt is the great man?
43502Well, why should n''t a man- hater on your side prove equally open to reason?
43502Well----?
43502Well?
43502Well?
43502Well?
43502Were they Guelf or Ghibelline?
43502What a pity she has n''t got a husband and a baby to keep her quiet"?
43502What about my brother?
43502What about?
43502What advertisement is so sure of being remembered?
43502What can I do for you?
43502What did you do?
43502What do you call the greatest evil in the world?
43502What do you know about it?
43502What do you mean?
43502What do you mean?
43502What do you propose she shall do, poor child?
43502What do you say?
43502What do you say?
43502What do you think he was charged with?
43502What do you think she said to me in London the other day?
43502What does she do to tire her?
43502What excuse shall you make your own soul for not going straight to the goal?
43502What had he been stealing-- that small criminal?
43502What happened?
43502What if there is n''t?
43502What in the name of---- What has she been saying to you?
43502What is it you are asking of me?
43502What made her write like that?
43502What makes you think...?
43502What men?
43502What name?
43502What news?
43502What on the whole are the prospects?
43502What others?
43502What reason did she give?
43502What resolution?
43502What revolting views?
43502What sort of felon is to stand in the dock before the women whose crime is they ask for the vote?"
43502What they want?
43502What woman is tried by hers?
43502What''ave you done for yours?
43502What''s the use of your going on denying it?
43502What''s up?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What?
43502What_ could_ I do?
43502When did he do anything like that?
43502Where are you going?
43502Where are you going?
43502Where in all this were_ her_"peers"?
43502Where is she now?
43502Where''s the woman Shakespeare?
43502Where''s their Plato?
43502Whereabouts are you?
43502Which of us d''you mean?
43502Which?
43502Who cartoons people who are of no importance?
43502Who did?
43502Who do you think is motoring up the drive?
43502Who else?
43502Who has?
43502Who is Miss---- You do n''t mean to say there are other people?
43502Who is he when he''s at home?")
43502Who is the Elusive One?
43502Who tells you that?
43502Who told you that?
43502Who told you that?
43502Who?
43502Whose story?
43502Why are you catechising me?
43502Why are you saying goodbye as if you were never coming back?
43502Why are you so sure of that?
43502Why did men so long ago insist on trial by"a jury of their peers"?
43502Why did n''t you telegraph?
43502Why do you dislike her so?
43502Why do you say it like that?
43502Why does he behave like that?
43502Why does n''t she marry?
43502Why have n''t I seen her before?
43502Why is she intriguing to get hold of a man that, ten years ago, she flatly refused to see, or hold any communication with?
43502Why not realise(_ going quite close to him_) this is a thing that goes deeper than personal experience?
43502Why not?
43502Why not?
43502Why should it?
43502Why should it?
43502Why should you think that it''s only you, these ten years have taught something to?
43502Why was it, then?
43502Why, I thought you said you wanted me----?
43502Why, where is he, then?
43502Why?
43502Why_ will_ you go on talking of what''s so long over and ended?
43502Will that ghost give you no rest?
43502Will you come?
43502With Miss Levering?
43502With----?
43502Wot about the 96,000 textile workers?
43502Wot about the Yorkshire tailoresses?
43502Wot d''you expect from a pig but a grunt?
43502Wot next?
43502Wot''s the reason thousands do-- and the best and the soberest?
43502Wot''s_ politics_?
43502Would you have women magistrates?
43502Yes-- what''a''they ever_ done_?
43502Yes?
43502You are n''t serious?
43502You did n''t get it, then?
43502You know one another?
43502You may as well tell me-- do you mean to----?
43502You mean that rowdy scene in the House of Commons?
43502You must think he has a great deal of power---- MISS L. Power?
43502You never asked yourselves,"_ Wot''s a Liberal, anyw''y?_"A VOICE.
43502You remember Mrs. Freddy''s friend who came to tea here in the winter?
43502You think I do n''t recall it correctly?
43502You think that night of the scene-- you think the men did n''t_ mean_ to play fair?
43502You think they were just putting off the issue till it was too late?
43502You two still talking Soper?
43502You want me to have a_ real_ share in it all, do n''t you, Geoffrey?
43502You wanted it_ overlooked_?
43502You''ll remind her of that first of all, wo n''t you?
43502You''re trying to shield him---- MISS L. Why should I-- what is it to me?
43502You''ve come to realise, then-- after all these years-- that you owed me something?
43502_ Cleared up?_ JEAN.
43502_ Does_ he?
43502_ I?_ JEAN.
43502_ I_ did n''t know her name was Vida; how did you?
43502_ Is n''t_ it fun?
43502_ One?_ Oh- h!
43502_ Saw?_ Where?
43502_ Saw?_ Where?
43502_ W''y_ does any woman tyke less wyges than a man for the same work?
43502_ What!_ Then how in the name of Heaven do you know-- that she wants-- what you ask?
43502_ Whose?_ JEAN.
43502_ Will_ you?
43502_ You_ went?
43502_''Ome_ do you call it?
43502how am I ever going to be able to behave like a girl who is n''t engaged to the only man in the world worth marrying?
43502what are the women of this country coming to?
43502what can a woman like you_ know_ about it?
19718A convert-- me? 19718 A few more interviews?
19718Adeline Luna, what_ do_ you mean?
19718Ah, do n''t be rough with me,he said, in his soft Southern voice;"do n''t you remember how you knocked me about when I called on you in Boston?"
19718Ai n''t she up there now?
19718All about me?
19718All what, Miss Tarrant?
19718Alone, do you mean? 19718 Am I not an outsider?
19718And breathe forth my views in glowing messages to a palpitating Senate? 19718 And could n''t he get hold of any one but you-- among all the exposed millions of our sex?"
19718And did she press the question of my coming there?
19718And did you find that they were in advance?
19718And do n''t you despise him for it?
19718And do n''t you remember what I told you I wanted to do? 19718 And do you think I understand any better?
19718And do you think that''s a delicate inquiry to make of_ me_?
19718And does she make speeches too?
19718And have you sent for me only for that?
19718And in that case-- poor Newton''s education?
19718And now you give me up?
19718And pray what do you want to do with her?
19718And pray what is it you suspect?
19718And shall you go to the Music Hall to- night?
19718And she has asked you to keep me out? 19718 And that''s the time you choose for your walk?"
19718And this is the preparation?
19718And this time your visit is also for Miss Chancellor?
19718And this vision of a literary career is based entirely upon an article that has n''t yet seen the light? 19718 And what did you say?"
19718And what do you want?
19718And what in the world is the Wednesday Club? 19718 And what will the people do?
19718And what you want is that I should n''t undeceive her?
19718And where did they take you?
19718And where is she gone?
19718And why not, pray?
19718And would you go and stay with Mrs. Burrage, after all, if she should say anything to me that seems to make it desirable?
19718Any sacrifice for affection?
19718Anything more? 19718 Are you a member?"
19718Are you successful in New York? 19718 Are you very sure that last night was only the third time?"
19718Are you very sure?
19718As if what?
19718As much as what?
19718As you had n''t the least acquaintance with Mrs. Burrage, who else could it have come from?
19718But as much as that?
19718Charming to me, charming to all the world? 19718 Curious-- how do you mean?"
19718Despise him? 19718 Did Mr. Burrage try to make love to you?"
19718Did he tell you that in his letter?
19718Did he tell you that, pray? 19718 Did n''t you expect me, and were n''t you sure?"
19718Did she tell you that?
19718Did you ask for me-- did you want me?
19718Did your son know that you were going to speak to me about this?
19718Do I look like the heroine of an occasion?
19718Do n''t seem as if_ you_ could make it much worse, does it?
19718Do n''t you know that some minds, when they see a mystery, ca n''t rest till they clear it up?
19718Do n''t you regard her as a wonderful genius?
19718Do n''t you remember I showed it to you?
19718Do n''t you remember my hearing her speak that night at Miss Birdseye''s?
19718Do n''t you see how good, how sweet they are-- giving us all this time? 19718 Do n''t you want him, then, to be a man of the world?"
19718Do you call these''the people''?
19718Do you consider it such a tremendous sacrifice?
19718Do you desert me already?
19718Do you know Cambridge?
19718Do you leave it all to me? 19718 Do you mean at that house where I heard you speak?"
19718Do you mean for the public? 19718 Do you mean she wishes to impose on him the yoke of matrimony?"
19718Do you mean she''s excited, emotional?
19718Do you mean the contents of that tumbler? 19718 Do you mean to say you are not going?"
19718Do you mean to tell me you do n''t know everything about Miss Tarrant that can be known?
19718Do you still make speeches?
19718Do you suppose any journey is too great, too wearisome, when it''s a question of so great a pleasure?
19718Do you then advocate a system of education in common?
19718Do you think any movement is going to stop that-- or all the lectures from now to doomsday? 19718 Do you want to hear all the infamy that is in the world?"
19718Do you want us all murdered by the mob, then?
19718Does he believe in all those lunacies?
19718Enough? 19718 Flee from him again, as I did in New York?
19718For what do you take me? 19718 Get my articles published?"
19718Given it up-- the poor, dear, desolate old South? 19718 Go home?
19718Has it been such a source of happiness to me that I belong to it?
19718Has n''t he the delicacy of one of his own slave- drivers? 19718 Has she seemed very gay?"
19718Have n''t you been there-- on secret visits?
19718Have n''t you really any idea where she is living? 19718 Have they any happiness?"
19718Have you made an exhaustive search for Miss Tarrant?
19718He asks you that, just that way?
19718Help to what?
19718Help you? 19718 Her speech?
19718Hidden her away, with all the walls and fences of Boston flaming to- day with her name?
19718His address?
19718How can we tell till we try? 19718 How can you know that?
19718How could she do that? 19718 How do you know it was a mistake?
19718How do you know that, Verena?
19718How do you know that?
19718How do you know what she is saying?
19718How will she know, unless you tell her?
19718I beg your pardon-- is it Doctor Prance?
19718I said very little, but she gave me such assurances----"That you thought I ought to go?
19718I suppose, by the way, you know Miss Tarrant and Miss Chancellor are staying down here?
19718I, my dear? 19718 If Miss Birdseye knew you were coming out to see me, ca n''t_ she_ easily tell Olive?
19718If it''s forbidden to me to go and see you there, why did you send me a card?
19718If she''s sick, why does n''t she send for a doctor? 19718 If the door was locked, what was the good of your standing before it?"
19718If we should stay, would you see him-- at eleven o''clock?
19718Is Miss Chancellor your cousin? 19718 Is Miss Tarrant going to lecture, or ai n''t she going to lecture?
19718Is he asking for a doctor?
19718Is it for papers, magazines?
19718Is it such a_ corvà © e_? 19718 Is that why you call it her great effort?"
19718Is there anything against Mississippi?
19718It was in about the same place you were, was n''t it?
19718Kindly? 19718 Love him, Olive?
19718May I inquire whether you are going to Europe in consequence of your disapproval of your sister''s views?
19718Me-- why in the world should it have been me?
19718Miss Tarrant''s? 19718 Miss Tarrant-- gone away?"
19718Money and presents? 19718 My darling child, have n''t you a shawl or a mantle?"
19718My sister? 19718 My views, Miss Prance?
19718Not to mind me? 19718 Oh indeed?
19718Oh yes, Mrs. Luna-- isn''t she fascinating?
19718Oh, are_ you_ going to speak?
19718Oh, is it printed-- when does it appear?
19718Oh, why did you come-- why, why?
19718On the chance?
19718One of them? 19718 One spoonful-- two?"
19718Quiet? 19718 Really?
19718Ruined? 19718 Seen Olive?
19718She''s always interested in something, is n''t she?
19718Should you like me to go out and look for her? 19718 So that you may meet him in other places-- on the shore, in the country?"
19718Still? 19718 That evening at Mrs. Burrage''s?
19718That runs her?
19718That''s all very well,Ransom returned;"but does she think that she only has a right to go out?
19718The Music Hall-- isn''t that your great building?
19718The civilisation of the Turks, then, strikes you as the highest?
19718The leaders?
19718The lecture?
19718The same things you said in New York? 19718 Then how can we leave Miss Birdseye, in her state?
19718Then why did you think I would refuse?
19718Then why in the world_ did_ she ask you?
19718Then, I presume, she_ has_ shaken you?
19718There''s one thing I want to know: are we going to spend half an hour talking over our domestic affairs?
19718They can have their money-- can''t you give them back their money?
19718To save it from what?
19718To see and to hear what, please? 19718 To spare me?
19718To walk round-- with you to show me?
19718To whom else, pray? 19718 Trusts you?
19718Up there? 19718 Verena Tarrant, what_ is_ there between you?
19718Verena Tarrant, you do n''t mean to say you are going to back down?
19718Verena-- to him? 19718 Vibrate?"
19718Was it very obvious when it brought you on here?
19718Well, Miss Tarrant, do n''t you think you''d better be on the platform?
19718Well, do you consider that you have advanced far in that direction, as yet?
19718Well, if I were to say it may-- should you think me too miserably changeful?
19718Well, if it''s all a mere delusion, why should this facility have been given me-- why should I have been saddled with a superfluous talent? 19718 Well, it''s delightful to see the way it goes on, is n''t it?"
19718Well, what good will it do, if I''m going to tell Olive about your visit?
19718Were the emperors impertinent, in addition to their other vices? 19718 What could I say?
19718What did she feel?
19718What difference does that make to me-- once you leave these shores?
19718What do I care about Miss Tarrant? 19718 What do you care about the work it accomplished?"
19718What do you know about her? 19718 What do you know about my will?"
19718What do you think of Miss Chancellor-- how does she strike you?
19718What does it matter-- why should you care about him?
19718What have you understood, then?
19718What is that-- for a man? 19718 What others do you mean?"
19718What the h---- are they doing in the parlour? 19718 What under the sun is the man talking about?
19718What''s the matter with you, Basil Ransom, and what are you after?
19718Where are you staying? 19718 Where should I have seen her?
19718Who do you s''pose will call you?
19718Who has she sent, do you s''pose?
19718Whom do you mean by''she''?
19718Why ca n''t I go in, I should like to know? 19718 Why do you ask that-- when I have given it up?"
19718Why do you talk of being poor and unheard of? 19718 Why for an hour, when it''s all false and damnable?
19718Why have you done this? 19718 Why in the name of goodness do n''t she go on?
19718Why in the world not-- since she knows him?
19718Why is it impossible?
19718Why must he pick you out, when everything he knew about you showed you to be, exactly, the very last?
19718Why not be honest, if you have been false-- really honest, not only half so? 19718 Why should n''t I see you, if I should take it into my head?
19718Why should you ever listen to me again, when you loathe my ideas?
19718Why will it be different?
19718Why, Adeline Luna, when did I ever----?
19718Why, Olive Chancellor, how can you ask?
19718Why, Olive Chancellor, what do you think?
19718Why, do n''t you consider her career very remarkable?
19718Will you come somewhere apart, where I can speak to you alone?
19718Without my father?
19718Yes, what can you expect of a gentleman? 19718 You mean because she has brought you out?
19718You mean they are absolutely fearful? 19718 You mean you have got to go back to work?"
19718You remember that I would n''t do that when I met you last?
19718You think not?
19718You think we are feigning an interest, only to get hold of her? 19718 Your applause?
19718_ Back?_ I shall never come back!
19718--after this he put on a look of innocence sufficient to carry off the inquiry,"Forgiven her for what?"
19718All, all?
19718An accident was perfectly possible( what could Ransom, with his plantation habits, know about the management of a sail?
19718And now you want me to dine with you?
19718And of what consequence, anyway, was the missing?
19718And what do you call adequate expression?
19718And what does anything matter when he has come after you now?
19718And who was he, what was he?
19718Any one sick at the hotel?"
19718Are Miss Olive and she not constantly together?"
19718Are n''t you getting on quite well in this city?"
19718Are you a little girl of ten and she your governess?
19718Are you not aware that your son, a year ago, desired to marry her?"
19718Are you not going into the other room to hear the speech?
19718Are you not going to see her at all?"
19718Are you really not faint and weak?"
19718As for me, you do n''t suppose I do n''t want everything we poor women can get, or that I would refuse any privilege or advantage that''s offered me?
19718As soon as she saw him, she put out her left hand to him-- the other was in Mr. Burrage''s arm-- and said:"Well, do n''t you think it''s all true?"
19718At last Olive asked:"Is that what he told you, off there by the water?"
19718Burrage?"
19718Burrage?"
19718Burrage?"
19718But ca n''t you tell me any little personal items-- the sort of thing the people like?
19718But does n''t it make your life a burden thinking what you can possibly have?"
19718But even if she should remain obdurate, should you consider yourself quite safe as regards others?"
19718But everywhere we heard one cry--''How long, O Lord, how long?''"
19718Did Olive ask herself whether, for so many months, her companion had been only the most unconscious and most successful of humbugs?
19718Did he too want to make love to her?
19718Did n''t it come from Verena Tarrant?"
19718Did people lie like that in Mrs. Luna''s set?
19718Did she say that Verena was attempting to smother her now in her own phrases?
19718Did you see the colleges as you came?"
19718Do n''t you know that kind of nature?
19718Do n''t you remember you asked for him?"
19718Do n''t you suppose every one knows_ your_ life?"
19718Do n''t you think that when they behave like that-- without a sound, for five minutes-- they ought to be rewarded?"
19718Do you ask how we should get on with them?
19718Do you call such a man as that a gentleman?
19718Do you mean of Miss Tarrant''s?"
19718Do you remember the last time I asked you to help me?"
19718Do you remember the little visit I paid to Cambridge last spring, when I saw you at his rooms?
19718Do you suppose I care whether I see you or not?"
19718Do you suppose it matters a straw to me?"
19718Do you think I am so fond of the creature that I want to keep her all to myself?"
19718Do you think any state of society can come to good that is based upon an organised wrong?"
19718Does n''t he know it''s my house?"
19718Does n''t he know you loathe him?"
19718Does she expect you to keep the house because she''s abroad?
19718Filer?"
19718Filer?"
19718For what was their brutality given them, but to make that up?"
19718Had not his kinswoman quite made the subject her own during their drive that afternoon?
19718Had she forgotten where she was, and did she take him for a full house?
19718Have n''t you any liberty at all, and is she always watching you and holding you to an account?
19718Have n''t you any pity; do you want me to be hooted?
19718Have n''t you any soul?"
19718Have n''t you been seeing Miss Tarrant, too?"
19718Have n''t you seen her here?
19718Have you got the doctor with you?"
19718Have you seen my delightful sister yet?
19718Have you such vagabond instincts that you are only thought safe when you are between four walls?"
19718He took for granted the matter of her speech was ridiculous; how could it help being, and what did it signify if it was?
19718He, of course, was one of the systematic scoffers, one of those to whom she said--"Do you know how you strike me?
19718How can I consent to that?"
19718How can I marry every man that hangs about me-- that dogs my footsteps?
19718How can I possibly hurt you, when I feel to you as I do?"
19718How could it hurt Adeline that he should turn his attention to Verena?
19718How could you possibly doubt of my coming?"
19718I left you alone for ten weeks; but could that make you doubt it was coming?
19718I made a speech-- don''t you remember?
19718I presume you would like to be President of the United States?"
19718I wo n''t go to them-- I won''t-- do you understand?"
19718If I have mollified her, madam, why should n''t I mollify you?
19718If you want to see the speaker why do n''t you go and set round in the hall, with the rest of the public?"
19718Is her condition very precarious?"
19718Is it possible she has n''t sent you one?"
19718Is it possible to be more quiet than I am?"
19718Is n''t that a great waste, a great violation of nature?
19718Is n''t that true?
19718Is she aware that every quarter of a second, at the present instant, is worth about five hundred dollars?"
19718Is she going to deliver one here?"
19718Is some one going to offer up a prayer?
19718Is that all there is between you?"
19718Is that the way a Southern gentleman treats a lady?
19718It does seem as if she had found the right thing; do n''t you think so?"
19718It was no use her saying that Mrs. Burrage might have sent it of her own movement, because she was n''t aware of his existence, and why should she be?
19718Might she not at least talk over the question with Miss Chancellor?
19718Might she not see her on the morrow, and might she ask of her the very great favour that the interview should be at Mrs. Burrage''s own house?
19718Miss Chancellor gave him no information on the point he had mentioned; she only said, in a moment:"Do you go wherever you are invited?"
19718Mrs. Tarrant, do you suppose I pretend not to be selfish?"
19718My dear young lady, I wonder if I might give you three words of advice?"
19718Now, this woman to- night; is n''t she from Boston?"
19718Olive gave her a sidelong look; then, catching her up and facing her again--"Will you come away, now, by the next train?"
19718Pray, who shall judge what we require if not we ourselves?
19718Ransom complimented Doctor Prance on the lucidity of her mind, and then he said:"Is Miss Birdseye really sick?
19718Ransom made no answer to this appeal, but after an instant he broke out:"Honestly, Mrs. Luna, can you give me no clue?"
19718Ransom to her party?
19718Ransom''s-- to enable Mrs. Burrage to invite him?"
19718Ransom, do you know what strikes me?"
19718Ransom,"she cried out,"where in the world were_ you_ washed ashore?"
19718Ransom?"
19718Ransom?"
19718She paid no attention to this, she went on,"And those who have got no home( there are millions, you know), what are you going to do with_ them_?
19718She turned her eyes from Olive to Verena; then she said,"Does n''t it seem as if we had room for all?
19718She was capable of noticing this, and in a moment she asked--"Why do n''t you write out your ideas?"
19718So he went on:"Is it only with him you can go out?
19718The fancy suddenly struck Ransom of asking, in response to this,"And you?
19718The next moment she inquired, in an appeal half comical, half touching,"My dear colleague, why do you make me say such conceited things?"
19718The reporter stared; then, eagerly,"You have nothing to do with it-- you take an unfavourable view, you protest?"
19718Then Olive asked abruptly, looking at her,"How did you know his address?"
19718Then Ransom added,"How is Miss Tarrant to- day?
19718Then he said, with abruptness, in a different tone:"If this house has been, as you say, headquarters, how comes it you have n''t seen her?"
19718Then she added, suddenly,"Have you noticed that I am afraid to face what I do n''t like?"
19718Then she added,"How then did you know I was out here?"
19718Then the policeman added, as to himself,"Why the devil do n''t it?"
19718Then wo n''t Olive make her reflexions about your neglect of herself?"
19718They are perfectly quiet-- don''t you see how quiet they are?
19718They trust me, they trust me, do n''t they, father?
19718Two hours, in Cambridge, before we went to New York?"
19718Verena replied, with a tremor in her voice which was not that of passion, but of charity:"Do you mean that I expected him, that I brought him?
19718Were not her views the same as Olive''s and had n''t Olive and he signally failed to hit it off together?
19718Were not our talents given us to use, and have we any right to smother them and deprive our fellow- creatures of such pleasure as they may confer?
19718What Olive did, in fact, was simply to inquire, by way of rejoinder:"Why did you ask us to come on?"
19718What do they care for you but to gape and grin and babble?
19718What do you mean by enough?"
19718What does he want-- what has he come for?"
19718What has that to do with it?
19718What if I do like him?
19718What is it they are always doing to the armies in Europe?--mobilising them?
19718What is she going to have for supper?
19718What observation have you had?"
19718What put such an idea into your head?"
19718What the plague are they after?"
19718What was Verena to her?
19718What will become of your charm?--is that what you want to know?
19718What would be her state now, poor forsaken friend, if some of them had been borne to her in the voices of the air?
19718What''s that?"
19718Where is she-- why is n''t she near me, to bid me farewell?
19718Where will you take me?"
19718Who dares to say''all''when we are not there?
19718Who would n''t pay half a dollar for such an hour as he had passed at Mrs. Burrage''s?
19718Why did n''t she go on?
19718Why did n''t she honestly send for a_ ballerina_ from Niblo''s-- if she wanted a young woman capering about on a platform?
19718Why have you a manner as if I had to be watched, as if I wanted to run away with every man that speaks to me?
19718Why in the world----?"
19718Why not take a stroll with me there as I did with you in the little park at Harvard?"
19718Why not tell him plainly that you love him?"
19718Why should n''t I be?
19718Why, except that she knew he was there, and was gaining time?
19718Why, what are you afraid there will be-- if I should simply walk home with you?"
19718Wo n''t he like it, and may you only do what he likes?
19718Wo n''t you even tell me whether you enjoyed it?
19718Wonderful creature, is n''t she?
19718Would she send me a word on a card?"
19718You do n''t mean to say they''ve locked themselves in?
19718You wo n''t come and dine, then?"
19718and why should n''t she trust you?
19718are you going to put_ that_ in the paper?"
19718ca n''t they give her more than that?"
19718did she view with dismay the fatal effect of trying to have an answer for everything?
19718do you like it?"
19718for Newton''s education?"
19718have n''t I told you what I think of her?"
19718is she more calm?"
19718or is she going to speak-- a-- without previous nourishment?"
19718what does it matter?
19718what_ can_ I hold on to, what_ can_ I believe?
19718why do you want her socially?
19718would you make any?"
43152Accident? 43152 Affronted?
43152Ah, why? 43152 Ah, why?"
43152And are you going in for polo?
43152And how are our dear cousins? 43152 And may I ask what has brought about this sudden change?"
43152And pray, where are you moving?
43152And she would recommend you?
43152And take pay?
43152And we shall all be expected to look on, I suppose?
43152And what does the college do?
43152And why yesterday?
43152And will she go to Thornbury?
43152And yet remain a sort of society? 43152 And you are engaged in the object- lesson?
43152And you''ll really be on my side?
43152And,she went on slowly,"do you always care about it when you have got it?"
43152And?
43152Are n''t we the People, with a capital letter?
43152Are n''t you a little-- in advance of the situation?
43152Are n''t you getting rather mixed?
43152Are n''t you hard on him? 43152 Are n''t you tired?
43152Are you aware that we are affording much food for remarks?
43152Are you going to cut down many more of poor Harry''s favourite trees?
43152Are you musical?
43152Arthur, why did n''t you give me a hint? 43152 Arthur,"she said impressively,"you are not getting tired of her, are you?"
43152Arthur,she said,"many words are not necessary, are they?
43152Blame? 43152 Bless you, my dear Anne, have n''t you yet learned to keep in your own sphere?
43152But I sha n''t interfere with them?
43152But he is much better?
43152But if you think it fairly over, I believe I may get you to own that it ca n''t have been very pleasant for me to speak?
43152But what is it? 43152 But you do n''t require us to write to the Principal?"
43152But you''ve tumbled into love?
43152But,burst from honest Harry,"you do n''t mean--?
43152But-- if I have proved to you that it is worthless?
43152But-- when you think you must cut, you wo n''t mind, will you, telling me beforehand?
43152By what?
43152Ca n''t you see what you''re doing?
43152Can I do anything for you in the town? 43152 Can you tell me anything about Mr Hilton?
43152Can you?
43152Captain Fenwick? 43152 Claudia again, I suppose?"
43152Could he have worked such a miracle if she did not?
43152Cricket? 43152 Days-- weeks-- what have they to do with the matter?"
43152Did Arthur ask you to say anything?
43152Did I not tell you she was a Radical?
43152Did n''t it really ever strike you,he said,"that Fenwick cared?"
43152Did n''t you hear me call out to you to look out for that turn?
43152Did not Mr Hilton explain that my profession was landscape gardening?
43152Did you do it on my account, or because you disliked any one you had to do with being laughed at?
43152Did you speak?
43152Did you suppose I should want to marry a place? 43152 Did you?
43152Do n''t you ever try to gloss over your feelings? 43152 Do n''t you find that people always know either too much or too little?
43152Do n''t you like it, then?
43152Do n''t you think it''s nice to have friends? 43152 Do n''t you think you''ve been hasty?"
43152Do n''t you?
43152Do you advise me, then, to go and live in a hut?
43152Do you always get what you want?
43152Do you find fault with your picture?
43152Do you mean,he asked sharply,"that you wish to break off our engagement?"
43152Do you not see,she said slowly and cruelly,"that you are not in the way?
43152Do you really intend to marry him?
43152Do you really think so, or are you only-- saying it?
43152Do you speak yourself?
43152Do you suppose I mind, when if you were n''t going I should go by myself?
43152Do you suppose I should allow my wife to make a fool of herself?
43152Do you take me for a stone? 43152 Do you think you could?"
43152Do you? 43152 Does he object?"
43152Does he take you?
43152Does n''t he think you ought to keep quiet a little longer?
43152Does yes signify yes?
43152For more than that?
43152Gardens? 43152 Gertrude, what''s this about Helen Arbuthnot?"
43152Good gracious, what do you mean?
43152Good? 43152 Hard?
43152Harry tells me you will like to have your morning to yourself, and I dare say you have letters to write, have n''t you, my dear? 43152 Harry?"
43152Has Arthur not told you that I was-- that I am a landscape gardener?
43152Has anything gone wrong?
43152Has he told you he does n''t work?
43152Has she gone back to that rubbish? 43152 Have n''t I seen you since?
43152Have n''t you guessed how I love you?
43152Have you done?
43152Have you impressed that upon the individual to your right?
43152He''s not very brilliant, is he?
43152He? 43152 Helen Arbuthnot?
43152How am I to answer?
43152How are you getting on? 43152 How are you getting on?
43152How can I say anything when you speak in such a tone?
43152How can one always be exactly the same?
43152How can one see them otherwise?
43152How can they? 43152 How have you managed?"
43152How have you slept? 43152 How is he?"
43152How much longer am I going to be tied by the leg?
43152How?
43152I remember you now,she said to Harry;"at least I think it was you who told me about a fox- terrier?"
43152I say, how could you be such a duffer?
43152I suppose she knows her own mind? 43152 I suppose you mean that women are jealous?"
43152I suppose,Anne hesitated and sighed--"I suppose it would not do to have Harry?
43152I suppose,he went on more quietly,"you are vexed with something I have done or left undone?"
43152I thought I had heard you protest against early rising?
43152I thought you hated calls?
43152I was wondering who would do the washing?
43152I wish you''d tell me seriously, Arthur, whether you really mean it?
43152I wonder why it should be, I wonder what has brought them together?
43152I''ve enjoyed it so much, every bit of it, have n''t you?
43152I''ve never set you up on a pinnacle for admiration, have I? 43152 I?
43152I? 43152 I?"
43152If not, you think I was a fool? 43152 If not?"
43152If she sticks on here, whether she may n''t find her remorse just a little boring?
43152If that means we are to have more than ever to do, what will become of us?
43152If the woman has learnt her business, why on earth should n''t she grind, as you call it, as well as her husband?
43152If you do n''t care for me now,he went on, unheeding,"do n''t you think you might some day?
43152Inscrutable? 43152 Is Claudia come?"
43152Is he very much hurt?
43152Is it Claudia?
43152Is it wrong, then?
43152Is it?
43152Is it?
43152Is n''t there something wrong with the wheel?
43152Is she a lady doctor?
43152Is she miserable, or only sore?
43152Is that a compliment?
43152Is that all you have against Claudia?
43152Is that all you have to say after what I''ve been going through? 43152 Is that it?"
43152Is that recommendation likely to last?
43152Is that the polo man?
43152Is that where you live? 43152 Is there anything surprising in that?"
43152It is n''t the bicycling, but-- I-- I thought we should have done so much together, and-- do you mean that you have always disliked it?
43152It''s a little the case of_ toujours perdrix_, is n''t it?
43152Its capabilities?
43152Let me see; how much time will you want, and when?
43152Married? 43152 May n''t I say if I admire anything very much?"
43152Meaning Mr Pelham, and a future twenty thousand a year?
43152Miss Hamilton, has Peter told you? 43152 Must I go?"
43152Must you have gone to Dresden? 43152 My darling, do you really mind very much?
43152My rival?
43152Need you ask?
43152No? 43152 No?"
43152Now, is she good enough for him, or is she going to make ducks and drakes of the honestest heart in the county? 43152 Now, will you come to your room?"
43152Offended me? 43152 Oh, Mrs Leslie,"she said at last, forcing back her attention,"is n''t she like her brother?"
43152Oh, did n''t I tell you? 43152 Oh, do you think so?"
43152Oh, why?
43152Oh,said Helen sleepily,"do you want encouragement?"
43152One can see for one''s self, I suppose?
43152Or help?
43152Perhaps I should n''t have said that? 43152 Pity?"
43152Really?
43152Really?
43152Really?
43152Really?
43152Right? 43152 Shall I call the nurse?"
43152She has n''t said anything herself?
43152She''s my sister, do n''t you know? 43152 Shop- dressing?"
43152Since when have you been so desirous for a conversation_ a deux_?
43152Since when have you indulged in such high aspirations?
43152So that you are less hard on him than on poor idle Harry?
43152So that you forgive me?
43152Teach? 43152 Tell me, has your Claudia really given up her career and her pocket- book?"
43152That fellow-- that Pelham-- can you tell me honestly that you care for him?
43152The soup, or the line, or what?
43152The work, my clear?
43152Then I suppose you''ll be going over again?
43152Then do you suppose?
43152Then why blame me?
43152Then why do you speak?
43152Then wo n''t you admit him as one of the People?
43152Then you own I was right?
43152Then,remarked his sister,"you heard whether the report about Helen Arbuthnot is true?"
43152There''s no actual danger, is there?
43152There''s nothing so wonderful about it, is there?
43152They are down?
43152Think? 43152 This other man, who got the chance--""Captain Fenwick?"
43152Three?
43152To Claudia? 43152 To help Harry?"
43152To make a speech?
43152To that man?
43152Tossed up?
43152Very ill."His leg is broken, is n''t it?
43152Was it? 43152 Was that why you came to Thornbury?"
43152Was there ever such a heavenly day? 43152 Well, is n''t it?"
43152Well, why` Oh, Arthur!''?
43152Well,she asked abruptly,"what have you to say?"
43152Well?
43152Well?
43152Well?
43152Well?
43152Well?
43152Well?
43152What are they?
43152What are you going to wear?
43152What are you up to now?
43152What can you be thinking of?
43152What did he say?
43152What do you mean?
43152What do you mean?
43152What do you mean?
43152What does it matter?
43152What does it matter?
43152What has that to do with it?
43152What have I said? 43152 What is it?"
43152What makes you so awfully down on me to- day?
43152What on earth has that to do with it?
43152What other excellent characteristics does he boast?
43152What was she saying about the Thornbury trees?
43152What woman does? 43152 What would our little cousin say if she saw?"
43152What''s a broken leg or two?
43152What''s wrong?
43152What?
43152When? 43152 Where are the Greys, I wonder?"
43152Where''s Harry?
43152Where''s the use, when you''ll do the contrary? 43152 Who does she say she is going to marry?"
43152Who is ironic to abdicate?
43152Who is it by?
43152Who told you so?
43152Who''s Carry?
43152Who?
43152Why am I to be held responsible for the past? 43152 Why could n''t Arthur have let us know?"
43152Why curious?
43152Why did n''t you look ahead?
43152Why did they ask me to come? 43152 Why did you take it for granted that you had?"
43152Why do I talk to him like that, when he has n''t a glimmer of understanding about art or anything beyond the commonplace, poor fellow?
43152Why do you say this to me?
43152Why impossible?
43152Why not? 43152 Why not?"
43152Why not?
43152Why on earth must one explain why one does this, or does n''t do that? 43152 Why should I?
43152Why should I?
43152Why should we? 43152 Why should you call him poor Harry?"
43152Why trouble her? 43152 Why?
43152Why? 43152 Why?
43152Why? 43152 Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Why?
43152Will half- past three suit you, my dear? 43152 Will he care?"
43152Will he?
43152Will she have me?
43152With a map and a compass? 43152 Wo n''t I?"
43152Wo n''t she? 43152 Women are inexplicable, but is n''t there still some sort of necessity to pretend that a little more than money is wanted for a husband?"
43152Yes?
43152Yes?
43152Yes?
43152You call that luck, do you?
43152You can say this-- Helen, you? 43152 You can stop here with him, ca n''t you?"
43152You did not know it? 43152 You do n''t suppose I had the trees cut down except where it would be an improvement?
43152You do n''t want to be shown the stables, do you?
43152You know about the accident?
43152You like it?
43152You mean I''ve no chance?
43152You say so? 43152 You think, perhaps, then, that I am the cause of your unhappiness?"
43152You wish it to go?
43152You wo n''t faint, or anything?
43152You''ll forgive my coming at this unearthly hour, wo n''t you?
43152You''ve really enjoyed it?
43152You?
43152You?
43152Your day?
43152And I suppose you''ll own that I''ve knocked about the world more than you?
43152And did she-- Claudia, I mean-- enjoy her mission?"
43152And do you mean to say you have n''t thought of him-- seriously, I mean?"
43152And how can one take one''s part in the movement without enthusiasm?"
43152And pity for me?"
43152And suppose the wrong man comes up?"
43152And what is she like?"
43152And what ought you to do?
43152And when are you really going to begin?
43152And why did n''t you have your tea?
43152And yet you are not offended?
43152And you encouraged it?"
43152Another time he remarked to his sister--"Ca n''t you give Claudia a hint not to be so tremendously excited about the band in church?
43152Are you going?"
43152Are you rested?
43152As Anne did not speak, she went on hurriedly,"You do n''t mind my not saying more, do you?"
43152As Claudia struggled breathlessly against the hill, he added in a vexed tone,"Why on earth must you be in such a hurry?"
43152As no one answered her question she turned again to Fenwick,"Wo n''t you let me come, this once, this first time?
43152Besides, after all, have I said anything that should affront you?
43152Bored?"
43152Bring your philosophy to bear, for, after all, you find him more endurable than the others-- him or his bicycle, which is it?"
43152But I am afraid it must be a long business, and,"--she hesitated--"don''t you think he deserves a little reward?"
43152But I imagine you are prepared to hear of such episodes?"
43152But after luncheon you must come for a drive, and later perhaps a little tennis?
43152But did you really come alone on a bicycle?
43152But from his?"
43152But is n''t she engaged to young Pelham?"
43152But meanwhile?
43152But now,"--another pause--"I wonder if he does like me very much?
43152But she has said a few words which make me think she wants to be off, and I''m not sure whether--""Whether?"
43152But what is the use of them?
43152But what of that?
43152But what of us?
43152Ca n''t I help you?"
43152Ca n''t you give me a little hope?
43152Ca n''t you see for yourself that nobody has any chance-- yet?
43152Can I do anything for you in the town?"
43152Can nothing be done?"
43152Can you get along by yourselves?
43152Claudia, ca n''t you love me?"
43152Come, was n''t that in your mind?"
43152Could this be love?
43152Did n''t I advise you to keep quiet?"
43152Did n''t you know that I had been studying at the college?"
43152Did you really suppose I cared to find myself at Barton Towers?"
43152Do n''t you know me well enough to see that I am at this moment dying of jealousy?
43152Do n''t you see that it gives me the power of understanding you?"
43152Do n''t you see, ca n''t you see, that your very lack of power to do this for yourself shows what a gulf has opened between us?
43152Do n''t you think one more often meets with original women?"
43152Do n''t you understand that we hold there ought not to be the social differences which have hitherto existed?
43152Do n''t you want something?
43152Do they ever do any one any good?
43152Do you begin at once, or is this to be an off day?"
43152Do you imagine that if I married, for instance, I should be content to merge all my interests in ordering dinner, or talking about servants?"
43152Do you know that all your life, and all your love-- such as it is!--has hinged only upon what_ you_ feel, what_ you_ want?
43152Do you know that she calls herself a landscape gardener?"
43152Do you know you have wasted a great deal of my time this morning?"
43152Do you mind going to Barton on your bicycle?
43152Do you play, my dear?"
43152Do you really suppose that half the convictions in the world are capable of being proved by argument?"
43152Do you refuse even to throw me a few crumbs?"
43152Do you suppose it is the vicar?
43152Do you teach?"
43152Does he really care?
43152Does n''t that mollify you?"
43152Does the one thing invariably imply the other?"
43152Emily said eagerly--"Your profession?
43152Finally she said--"I wonder whether the report about her is true?
43152For my sake?"
43152Gardens on a great scale, I suppose?"
43152Granted that I was a fool-- a double- distilled fool-- would it have been for her happiness to have persisted in the folly?"
43152Had you a particular fondness for gardening?"
43152Harry says that is what every one plays now, and I believe there are some links-- isn''t that the name?
43152Have I ever coursed cookery through lectures, or passed the mildest of exams?
43152Have I offended you?"
43152He did not answer, and she asked, with a touch of anxiety--"Now, Harry, you''re not pretending to be affronted with me?"
43152He did, when I did not, and why was he so cruel as to force me into loving him, if he was not certain of himself?
43152He is much too good for her, but I imagine you ca n''t tell him so?"
43152How are we ever to hope to set matters right?"
43152How are your improvements getting on here, Miss Hamilton?"
43152How can it be otherwise?
43152How could I?"
43152How did you come upon it?"
43152How do it?
43152How do you do it?"
43152How long have you played with this amazing fancy?"
43152How''s everybody?"
43152However, if they please you, and you find them about-- May I ask for the mustard?"
43152I could n''t do more, could I?"
43152I dare say that horrifies you?"
43152I have just had a letter from Helen Arbuthnot; you remember her, do n''t you?"
43152I hope he is better?"
43152I say, do you think you''re strong enough to pull, or could you get under and keep his leg quiet while I draw him out?"
43152I suppose if I went away he would be here as much as he used to be?"
43152I suppose that is the sort of thing you do?"
43152I suppose you have happened to notice a big group of firs, the only fine thing about the place?"
43152I suppose you have sense enough left to go on just as usual?
43152I suppose, now,"she added,"you think there is a difference between me and-- say a charwoman?"
43152I thought you might find out for yourself, but-- who can account for impulses?
43152I wonder if I''m falling in love?
43152I wonder whether Mr Hilton has had his paper?"
43152I wonder why you say all this?"
43152I''ve never liked to tell you, but-- you''re sure you wo n''t mind?"
43152If I were only sure of him, should I mind one bit all his sister''s domineering ways?
43152If she''s satisfied, what have you to say?"
43152If we felt we had made a mistake, was it only I who found it out?"
43152If we were, I suppose the estate would have to be kept going, or there would n''t be much good in beautifying it?"
43152If you think of it, how should the planting at haphazard which went on everywhere, produce the best combinations?
43152In spite of your hard hitting, ca n''t you see that it was you who drove me to distraction?
43152Is any woman prepared?
43152Is n''t it idiotic?"
43152Is n''t she nice?"
43152Is n''t that always desirable?
43152Is n''t that enough?"
43152Is not any man the better for such a benediction?
43152Is she so inscrutable?"
43152Is that how you talk to other men?
43152Is that really a river?
43152Is that you, Anne?
43152Is there anything extraordinary in the fact?"
43152Is there ever any change at Elmslie?"
43152It is true that she said hastily to Anne,"My taking this does n''t mean anything?"
43152Let me see, Claudia, I quite forget if you know our country?"
43152May I hear more?"
43152May n''t I come and help?"
43152May n''t we all come and help?"
43152Might he not in these last days have been playing the fool, and losing ground?
43152Miss Arbuthnot?
43152No?
43152Nothing about marrying her myself, have I?
43152Now have I set myself low enough?"
43152Now will you allow me to offer you a little advice?
43152Now will you please go away?"
43152Now, as she began to gather her fluttering leaves together, he said eagerly,"You''re not going?"
43152Oh, Claudia, Claudia, is this the end of all your fine theories?"
43152Oh,"she broke out more wildly,"ca n''t you let it be over and done with without words?"
43152One after your own mind, is n''t it?"
43152Only, would you mind saying this to your sister yourself, and telling her that I must-- I must go away to- day?"
43152Only,"--she drew a deep breath--"these are wonderful times, are n''t they?
43152Only--""What?"
43152Or golf?
43152Otherwise of what good is it?"
43152Perhaps you would rather not have any one asked here just now?
43152Philippa, however, asked at once--"Well, but the result, the outcome?
43152Pray do you suppose the situation will be agreeable for us?"
43152Shall you practice?"
43152She added, very kindly,"What is it, Harry?"
43152She had come for a three weeks''stay, and of this only a fortnight-- was it credible?
43152She has n''t been talked into it?"
43152She only inquired--"And what do you intend to do?"
43152She said slowly--"Have you done?"
43152She went on--"May I really cut freely?
43152She''s--""Yes?"
43152Should she telegraph and go back to them the next day, throwing up her work?
43152So do n''t you think we had both better keep to what we know?"
43152So you think Harry commonplace?
43152Still-- Harry has not complained, has he?"
43152Sugar?"
43152Suppose we walk across to that clump?"
43152Surely I can arrange it with you?"
43152That I have n''t talked over my ideas with you?
43152That I left you to go back alone yesterday?
43152Then Miss Arbuthnot spoke without turning her head--"He goes there too, I suppose?"
43152Then he asked suddenly--"Who''s that man with the Thorntons?"
43152Then she said more slowly--"You''re not afraid for me, are you?
43152Then what stands in your way?
43152Then why are you so different from what you were ten days ago?"
43152Then you''d expect me to stick to my work, would n''t you?"
43152This morning?"
43152To whom?"
43152Was it by Harry, who now came towards her, walking as quickly as if he had just successfully accomplished the aim of a day''s search?
43152Was it so?
43152Was n''t it a fortnight that you had known me?"
43152Well, whatever it is, does nothing tell you what is labour lost?"
43152Well?"
43152Were they not her own convictions which had taken shape from the mouth of another?
43152What attracts you?
43152What could she say?
43152What did he care for all the hills in the country?
43152What did his heart tell him?
43152What do you complain of?
43152What do you do?"
43152What do you suppose I''m going to say, that you wo n''t listen?"
43152What do you think about it?"
43152What excuse could she offer?
43152What excuse, at any rate, which Lady Wilmot''s sharp eyes would not see through?
43152What extraordinary craze is this of Claudia''s?
43152What for?"
43152What have I to do with it?"
43152What have you heard?"
43152What is it?"
43152What is she like?"
43152What is that to me?
43152What magic do you use?"
43152What mission has been mine?
43152What of your own?"
43152What on earth makes you cram all these people about your business here?"
43152What ought she to do?
43152What was Harry by the side of Arthur Fenwick?
43152What was earth and air crying out?
43152What was there to do at Elmslie?
43152What were people compared with those green masses in which she read promise of fame?
43152What were the birds singing?
43152What will you say next about Peter?"
43152What''s the good of all their carrying dodges if they do n''t use them?"
43152What''s the use of having a will of one''s own if one ca n''t use it?
43152When do you go?"
43152When she''s out of this preposterous nonsense she''s charming, but where are her eyes, where''s her sense of the ridiculous?"
43152Which, I wonder?
43152Who is she?
43152Who is the man in the distance?"
43152Who will race me down the hill?"
43152Whose business is it what I wear?
43152Why am I here to- night?"
43152Why ca n''t I hold my own?
43152Why did he not?
43152Why do I give way?
43152Why had he been so stupid?
43152Why must you be a boy to feel the enchantment of them all?"
43152Why on earth do n''t you get away, and find some real manly occupation?"
43152Why should we not show the world that it is mistaken?"
43152Why should you go?
43152Why should you take the blame?"
43152Why should you think so?"
43152Why, when both were free, he should have preferred her to Helen Arbuthnot, who could tell?
43152Why?
43152Why?"
43152Will that suit you?"
43152Will you come?"
43152Will you ring the bell that I may send this?"
43152Will you?"
43152Women were women all the world over, and why should not his mother be as right as Helen Arbuthnot?
43152Would Thornbury do to begin with?
43152You are your own mistress, are n''t you?"
43152You do n''t want me to cut down all your trees, do you?"
43152You have also had a fall, I understand?"
43152You know that day we went to Barton Towers?"
43152You''ll come to Thornbury, wo n''t you?"
43152You''ll see that some one goes with her?"
43152Your father will not object?"
43152exclaimed Claudia scornfully,"do_ you_ think it worthless?"
43152ringing in her ears, how could she deny it, even to herself?
43152said Mrs Hilton, vaguely--"to look on at matches?"
43152she exclaimed with a change to enthusiasm,"do you mean this place?
43152she said, with a gasp,"you think so?"
43152what is it now?"
