40236	All princes who are disposed to become tyrants must probably approve of this opinion, and be willing to establish it; but is it not a dangerous one?
40236	An odd volume of a set of books bears not the value of its proportion to the set: what think you of the odd half of a pair of scissors?
40236	And why is it not fulfilled?
40236	And why?
40236	And, after all, of what use is this pride of appearance, for which so much is risked, so much is suffered?
40236	And, pray, would you have them hoard the money they get?
40236	Are they, then, any better or other than pickpockets?
40236	Are we farmers the only people to be grudged the profits of our honest labour?
40236	Are you, then, your own master?
40236	As it is impossible to know what your ideas are of the_ maniére convenable_, how can one answer this?
40236	As you are now free from public cares, and I expect to be so in a few months, why may we not resume that kind of correspondence?
40236	Being thus attacked by both ends_ of the constitution_, the head and tail_ of government_, what am I to do?
40236	But I ask, why a partial tax?
40236	But now, when you find yourself incapable of aiding a private man, how can you think of behaving yourself so as to be useful to a whole people?
40236	But though it be true to a proverb that lazy folks take the most pains, does it follow that they deserve the most money?
40236	But were you to succeed, do you imagine any good would be done by it?
40236	But what will fame be to an ephemera who no longer exists?
40236	But why more than any other workman?
40236	But you object, if water may be thus carried into the clouds, why have we not salt rains?
40236	Can I be assured that I shall be allowed to come back again to make the report?''
40236	Can he possibly preserve a right to that character, if by fraud, stratagem, or contrivance, he avoids that payment in whole or in part?
40236	Can we easily conceive how the strata of the earth could have been so deranged, if it had not been a mere shell supported by a heavier fluid?
40236	Can you not, when your children are all at school, make a little party and take a trip hither?
40236	Can you, my lord, forgive my long silence, and my not acknowledging till now the favour you did me in sending me your excellent book?
40236	Could all these people, now employed in raising, making, or carrying superfluities, be subsisted by raising necessaries?
40236	Do we know the limit of condensation air is capable of?
40236	Do you possess it?
40236	Does it rise above our atmosphere, and mix with the universal mass of the same kind?
40236	For he governed his passions,''& c."But what signifies our wishing?
40236	Has the question, how came the earth by its magnetism, ever been considered?
40236	Has your Society among its books the French work_ Sur les Arts et les Metiers_?
40236	Have you been upon the place?
40236	Have you seen them?''
40236	He began with him thus:"''You have a mind, then, to govern the republic?''
40236	How much more than is necessary do we spend in sleep?
40236	How shall we ever be able to pay them?
40236	How so?
40236	How, then, is it possible, said my friend, that you can keep on your business?
40236	If he is a just man, has he not the virtue of justice?
40236	If men are so wicked_ with religion_, what would they be if_ without it_?
40236	If one servant is more valuable than another, has he not more merit than the other?
40236	If the earth is at present magnetical, in virtue of the masses of iron ore contained in it, might not some ages pass before it had magnetic polarity?
40236	If you were a servant, would you not be ashamed that a good master should catch you idle?
40236	Is a pacing- horse less valuable for being a natural pacer?
40236	Is a patriot not praiseworthy if public spirit is natural to him?
40236	Is any gentleman ashamed to undertake and execute the commission?
40236	Is it likely that_ iron ore_ immediately existed when this globe was at first formed; or may it not rather be supposed a gradual production of time?
40236	Is it not the Bible of the Massachusetts language, translated by Elliot, and printed in New- England about the middle of the last century?
40236	Is it not thus that fire is amassed, and makes the greatest part of the substance of combustible bodies?
40236	Is not all punishment inflicted beyond the merit of the offence, so much punishment of innocence?
40236	Is not the natural heat of animals thus produced, by separating in digestion the parts of food, and setting their fire at liberty?
40236	Is there, then, no difference in value between property and life?
40236	May it not have been from such considerations that the ancient philosophers supposed a sphere of fire to exist above the air of our atmosphere?
40236	Mean as this practice is, do we not daily see people of character and fortune engaged in it for trifling advantages to themselves?
40236	Might not that woman, by her labour, have made the reparation ordained by God in paying fourfold?
40236	Must I keep my corn in the barn, to feed and increase the breed of rats?
40236	Or do they employ these your darling manufacturers, and so scatter it again all over the nation?
40236	Or has he not the virtue of industry?
40236	Ought a man, who has not strength enought to carry a hundred pound weight, to undertake to carry a heavier burden?''
40236	That soldiers and seamen, who must march and labour in the sun, should in the East or West Indies have a uniform of white?
40236	Their fine clothes and furniture, do they make themselves or for one another, and so keep the money among them?
40236	They ought to be repressed; but to whom dare we commit the care of doing it?
40236	To put a man to death for an offence which does not deserve death, is it not a murder?
40236	Under all these obligations, are our poor modest, humble, and thankful?
40236	Was it not as worthy of his care that the world should say he was an honest and a good man?
40236	We could not all conveniently start together; and why should you and I be grieved at this, since we are soon to follow, and know where to find him?
40236	What becomes of that fluid?
40236	What now avails all my toil and labour in amassing honey- dew on this leaf, which I can not live to enjoy?
40236	What occasions, then, so much want and misery?
40236	What science, then, can there be more noble, more excellent, more useful for men, more admirably high and demonstrative, than this of the mathematics?
40236	What signifies philosophy that does not apply to some use?
40236	What though you have found no treasure, nor has any rich relation left you a legacy?
40236	What was that saying?
40236	What was the consequence of this monstrous pride and insolence?
40236	What would you advise us to?"
40236	When will human reason be sufficiently improved to see the advantage of this?
40236	Why should not the law of nations go on improving?
40236	Why, then, should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals, a new member added to their happy society?
40236	Will not these heavy taxes quite ruin the country?
40236	Would it not be better for you to move into the house?
40236	Would you have me give them to, or drop them for a stranger I may find next Monday in the Church of Notre Dame, to be known by a rose in his hat?
40236	You ask what I mean?
40236	You saw that we, who understand and practise those rules, believed all your stories; why do you refuse to believe ours?"
40236	and if the law itself be unjust, may it not be the very"instrument"which ought"to raise the author''s and everybody''s highest indignation?"
40236	and what mean, low, rascally pickpockets must those be that can pick pockets for halfpence and for farthings?
40236	for, in politics, what can laws do without morals?
40236	is it then impossible to make an unjust law?
40236	may not even gold and silver be thus valued?
40236	says another,"have we then_ thieves_ among us?
40236	why laid on us farmers only?
26295	A capital subject,said Benjamin;"what do you say to taking that, Ralph?"
26295	A dollar and a half? 26295 A mean( humble) mechanic,--who can tell what an engine of good he may be, if humbly and wisely applied unto it?"
26295	Am I not going to Mr. Brownwell''s school any longer?
26295	And I go with you, did you say?
26295	And came all the way from Boston alone?
26295	And not go to school any more?
26295	And what is that? 26295 And what will be the probable expense of all these?"
26295	And where did you get your stones?
26295	And why do you deem such a pledge necessary?
26295	Any whistles?
26295	Are you about ready, Benjamin, to come into the shop and help me?
26295	Are you hungry?
26295	Are you satisfied,inquired Mrs. Franklin,"that Benjamin can not be prevailed upon to take the place of John in your shop?"
26295	Are you the young man,said Mickle,"who has lately opened a new printing- house?"
26295	Are your parents not willing that you should go to sea?
26295	Because Philadelphia is degenerating, and half the people are now bankrupt, or nearly so, and how can they support so many printers?
26295	Benjamin,said his father,"where was you last evening?"
26295	But did you not like the brazier''s business?
26295	But dost thou love life? 26295 But how can you expect to get all the business when there is another printer here, who has been established some time?"
26295	But would it not prove an advantage for you to be there yourself, to select the types, and see that everything is good?
26295	But your father was not thus persecuted, was he?
26295	By changing the name?
26295	Can I have more coppers when these are gone?
26295	Can I see him?
26295	Can any one particular form of government suit all mankind?
26295	Can it be,he exclaimed to Collins,"that you are intemperate?"
26295	Can it be?
26295	Can you take a friend of mine to New York?
26295	Can you take me in? 26295 Did they belong to you?"
26295	Did you not know that man?
26295	Did you not know that they belonged to the man who is building the house?
26295	Do n''t you believe it?
26295	Do you call me drunk?
26295	Do you intend to take Benjamin away from school at once?
26295	Do you know of any deserving young beginner lately set up, whom it lies in the power of the Junto any way to encourage?
26295	Do you think of anything at present in which the Junto may be serviceable to_ mankind_, to their country, to their friends, or to themselves?
26295	Do you think you will learn a lesson from this, and never do the like again?
26295	Do you understand all parts of it so that you can go on with it?
26295	Does Benjamin Franklin work for you?
26295	Doing?
26295	Go to see what?
26295	Going back?
26295	HOW MUCH DID YOU GIVE FOR YOUR WHISTLE?
26295	Hath any citizen failed in business, and what have you heard of the cause?
26295	Have you a subject to suggest?
26295	Have you any particular trade in view?
26295	Have you anything in view for him to do?
26295	Have you biscuit?
26295	Have you heard what they are doing in the Assembly?
26295	Have you lately heard of any citizen''s thriving well, and by what means?
26295	Have you lately observed any defect in the laws of your country, of which it would be proper to move the Legislature for an amendment? 26295 Have you met with anything, in the author you last read, remarkable, or suitable to be communicated to the Junto?
26295	Have you read them all?
26295	Have you seen all that is to be seen?
26295	Here I am among strangers without the means of returning, and what shall I do?
26295	How can you get away without letting him know it?
26295	How did you lose that?
26295	How does he feel about it?
26295	How does it happen, then, that some of their works are so popular?
26295	How far is it to Philadelphia?
26295	How happened it that he should come here with you?
26295	How is that,said James,"does he dislike your pieces?"
26295	How long ago was that?
26295	How long have you worked at the business?
26295	How long since you left home?
26295	How many copies of them would you print?
26295	How may smoky chimneys be best cured?
26295	How may the phenomena of vapours be explained?
26295	How much did you give for your whistle?
26295	How much do you make by boarding yourself, Ben?
26295	How much money have you?
26295	How much will you allow me a week if I will board myself?
26295	How old are you?
26295	How old is he?
26295	How so?
26295	How so?
26295	How so?
26295	How so?
26295	How so?
26295	How will it do to issue it in Benjamin''s name?
26295	How would you like to learn the printer''s trade with your brother James?
26295	I am from Boston?
26295	I should like to know where you discover the evidence of it?
26295	I suppose you can readily get work here, can you not?
26295	I suppose you do n''t mean to make me editor also?
26295	I would like such an enterprise myself,added Benjamin;"but can we succeed against Keimer?
26295	In what has he the advantage?
26295	Is the emission of paper money safe?
26295	Is there another printing- office here?
26295	Is there any man whose friendship you want, and which the Junto, or any of them, can procure for you?
26295	May I have some----?
26295	Mr. Franklin, what is the lowest you can take for this book?
26295	No work in Boston I''spose, hey? 26295 No work, hey?
26295	One dollar,said the lounger,"ca n''t you take less than that?"
26295	Shall I do it immediately?
26295	So you will decide to take that trade, will you?
26295	Then you are really in earnest? 26295 Then you deliberately resolved to steal them, did you?"
26295	Then you do not believe all that you have been taught about religion, if I understand you?
26295	Then you experienced the rigours of intolerance there, in some measure, did you?
26295	Then you think I am paying more a week for your board than it is worth?
26295	Then you think of opening a boarding- house for the special accommodation of Benjamin Franklin?
26295	Then, if you ca n''t go to sea, and you wo n''t be a tallow- chandler, what can you do?
26295	To New York?
26295	Used to the printing business?
26295	Want more gingerbread I''spose?
26295	Want to be a sailor? 26295 Want work at your old business, I suppose?"
26295	What are you going to buy?
26295	What can I do here now?
26295	What could possibly be your object in doing so?
26295	What did you come here for?
26295	What do you think of that, my son? 26295 What do you think of the prospect of getting work at some other office in the town?"
26295	What do_ you_ say, Ralph?
26295	What does your father say about your going off so far?
26295	What else is there for you to do, Benjamin?
26295	What had you to build it with?
26295	What happy effects of temperance?--of prudence?--of moderation?--or of any other virtue?
26295	What has happened now?
26295	What has happened to lead you to desire this?
26295	What has started you off there?
26295	What have you there, Benjamin?
26295	What have you there?
26295	What is that?
26295	What is that?
26295	What is the subject?
26295	What is there left to eat when meat is taken away?
26295	What is your opinion of my article?
26295	What is your opinion with regard to the truth of the Scriptures?
26295	What kind of a place is it?
26295	What kind of money do you have there?
26295	What particular service can I render?
26295	What qualifications have I for this that I have not for the cutler''s trade?
26295	What shall I ever want of Rhetoric or Logic?
26295	What shall you do now?
26295	What trade have you decided to follow, Benjamin?
26295	What unhappy effects of intemperance have you lately observed or heard?--of imprudence?--of passion?--or of any other vice or folly?
26295	What was you doing there?
26295	What was your business?
26295	What would you have if you could get it,--roast chicken and plum pudding?
26295	What would you like to do?
26295	What ye goin''to Philadelphy for?
26295	What, then, shall I do?
26295	When shall I begin, if you decide to let me go?
26295	Where are you from, my lad?
26295	Where are you from?
26295	Where did you get your bread, boy?
26295	Where have you been, Ben?
26295	Where shall you go to find one?
26295	Where will you get your lumber?
26295	Where will you go?
26295	Which is least criminal,--a_ bad_ action joined with a_ good_ intention, or a_ good_ action with a_ bad_ intention?
26295	Whither bound?
26295	Who can the author be?
26295	Who is the author of it?
26295	Who is your friend?
26295	Who will prepare them? 26295 Why can I not attend school till I am old enough to help you?"
26295	Why did_ he_ bring home my turkey?
26295	Why do n''t he get work in Boston?
26295	Why have you not disclosed it before?
26295	Why is that?
26295	Why not? 26295 Why so, father?"
26295	Why, then, did you take them in the evening, after the workmen had gone home? 26295 Will you row now?"
26295	Will you tell me who the author is now?
26295	You have? 26295 You know?"
26295	( turning to the drunken man)"how do you like diving?"
26295	After waiting some time he asked:"Is Mr. Franklin at home?"
26295	Again and again they allowed him to approach the boat, when they repeated the question:"Will you promise to row?"
26295	And have we now forgotten that powerful Friend, or do we imagine we no longer need his assistance?
26295	And how can you want to leave your good home, and all your friends, to live in a ship, exposed to storms and death all the time?"
26295	And, if a sparrow can not fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can arise without his aid?
26295	As he passed on, the young man turned to a person near by, and inquired,"Who is that polite old gentleman who brought home my turkey for me?"
26295	Do you ask how he likes it?
26295	Do you think I shall succeed in my business?"
26295	Does the young reader appreciate the privileges which he enjoys?
26295	Has he thought more of the quality of his food than of anything else at the family board?
26295	Have you any other pieces?"
26295	How can you tell whether they are mentally inferior or not, until they are permitted to enjoy equal advantages?"
26295	How could he write letters of credit, when he has no credit of his own to give?
26295	How did it happen that you formed this evil habit?"
26295	How long since you left home?"
26295	How long will it take to learn the trade?"
26295	I want to know whether you will lend me money to pay my bills here and go on my journey?"
26295	Is it not so?"
26295	Is there any other conveyance to Philadelphia?"
26295	May I have some, father?"
26295	Now, honestly, is not this much better for me, and for you, than the same amount of beer?"
26295	Perhaps he wanted to get away where he could eat as he pleased, with no one to say,"Why do ye so?"
26295	Seest thou a man diligent in his business?
26295	Some of the questions discussed by the members of the Junto were as follows:--"Is_ sound_ an entity or body?"
26295	Then you are a poet, are you?
26295	This question being answered, he continued,"Have you friends in Philadelphia?"
26295	What is the matter with it?"
26295	What kin ye du?"
26295	What put that into your head?"
26295	What should he do?
26295	What''s your name?"
26295	When they came to the house, the young fop asked,"What shall I pay you?"
26295	When will you begin?"
26295	While sitting at the dinner- table, his host asked,"Where are you from?"
26295	Who is it?"
26295	Why did you not go after them when the workmen were all there?"
26295	Why may not truth appear in such a dress as successfully as fiction?
26295	Why may not_ actual_ lives be presented in this manner as vividly as_ imaginary_ ones?
26295	Why, you offered it yourself for one dollar and a quarter?"
26295	You like to study, do you not?"
26295	You mean to go?"
26295	a gambler, too?"
26295	all you have?"
26295	and away off here so far?
26295	back again?"
26295	exclaimed James, astonished almost beyond measure by the disclosure;"do you mean to say that you wrote those articles?"
26295	exclaimed his brother,"did you give all your money for that little concern?"
26295	exclaimed the heroic lad,"I never saw fear,--what is it?"
26295	inquired John,"I do n''t understand you?"
26295	is it you, Benjamin?
26295	or do you know of any beneficial law that is wanting?"
26295	poetry, is it?
26295	what sort of work are you after that you find it so scarce?"
26295	who can it be?"
36376	''Why, how came this picture here, Sarah?'' 36376 All this looks very fair, Ben; but yet after all what are we to do without FAITH?"
36376	And in addition to all this, are they not daily paying large monies in secret taxes to Great Britain? 36376 But does not the Bible, in a thousand places, say that without faith no man can please God?"
36376	But is not faith a great virtue in itself, and a qualification for heaven?
36376	But suppose,asked some of them,"we were to quit our beer with bread and cheese for breakfast, what substitute should we have?"
36376	But what do you mean by_ their_ religion, my son?
36376	But why do you pitch on his GOODNESS rather than on any other of his attributes?
36376	But why do you suppose that so readily, Ben?
36376	But why, my son, did you keep me so long unhappy about your fate, and not write to me sooner?
36376	God''s mercy, child, what do you mean by that?
36376	Heavens, sir,said he to Keimer, one day in the midst of a hot argument,"Who can think, with common sense, A smooth shaved face gives God offence?
36376	How can that be,said Ben,"seeing you have a young wife and child?"
36376	I may have heard of him, child-- I''m not positive-- but what of governor Keith?
36376	No, child; what is it, for I have forgotten it?
36376	Sir,resorted the other,"what do you mean?
36376	So then, you look on faith as no virtue in itself, and good for nothing unless it exalt men to the likeness of God?
36376	Ungrateful?
36376	Well then, father, what''s to be done, for I know that the governor is so very anxious to get me into this place, that he will hardly be said nay?
36376	Well, but child, do you make no account of faith?
36376	Well, but how is this to be done?
36376	Well, doctor,said lord Spencer,"what is your opinion on this subject?"
36376	Well, reverend sir,said he, looking at the preacher, as he took up the Bible,"shall I read this chapter?"
36376	Well, sir,said the governor, sensibly staggered,"and how would you alter it?"
36376	What am I to understand by that, Ben?
36376	What have you got there?
36376	What imports it to the government, whether a merchant, a smith, or a hatter, grows rich in Old England or New England? 36376 What is it, Ben?"
36376	What shall we do to save our Bible?
36376	What, Tom,cried the doctor,"have you not got the silver hook yet?"
36376	Where, father,said Ben, roused up,"where?"
36376	Why not, my son?
36376	Why not, sir?
36376	Why so, my son?
36376	Why, do n''t you think them necessary?
36376	Why, father, must not that which moves be greater than that which is moved?
36376	Why, sir, the governor of Pennsylvania, sir William Keith-- I dare say, father, you have often heard of governor Keith?
36376	Why, what use can you have for so many books? 36376 Yes, father, and for the best reason in the world; for who can ever hope to please the Deity without his moral image?
36376	Zounds, man, what can it be?
36376	_ Pray, my little man, and what''s that that you are crying there so bravely?_Ben told them it was poetry.
36376	_ So Ben!_said he to him as he pressed his beloved hand,"_ you have got into a paper war already, have you?_"Ben blushed.
36376	_ To be sure, madam_,replied he with his usual gallantry,"_ and suppose we order one?_"She looked surprised.
36376	_ What luck? 36376 _ What!_"replied she, with sarcastic pleasantry,"_ do n''t the young ladies with you, read_ POOR RICHARD''S ALMANAC?"
36376	After a short pause, with a sigh, he thus resumed his speech--"Then, O my son, what a wretch were man without religion?
36376	An odd volume of a set of books bears not the value of its proportion to the set: what think you of the_ half_ of a pair of scissors?
36376	And at midnight God called unto Abraham, saying, where is the stranger?
36376	And besides, sir, where is the necessity for this_ most degrading_ measure?
36376	And have I indeed been all this time throwing away Vernon''s money for brandy to addle the brain of this poor_ self- made_ brute?
36376	And how is this to be done?
36376	And in this grand view, do not the holy apostles, and even Christ himself treat these things in the same way?
36376	And pray what has that butterfly philosopher to say against the immortal Newton?
36376	And pray what is the anecdote?
36376	And pray, sir, answered Ben, do you know any young man of your acquaintance that would?
36376	And pray, sir, continued Collins, tauntingly, do you know of any_ young woman_ of your acquaintance that would make a Newton?
36376	And pray, sir,"continued Ben,"where''s the wonder of all this?
36376	And then, as the spirits depend on the blood, must not the spirits secreted from such blood be the purest too?
36376	And what do you suppose they gave for it?
36376	And what do you suppose they immediately asked for it?
36376	And who knows but that old Jacob''s joys may be mine?
36376	And, after all, of what use is this pride of appearance, for which so much is risked, so much is suffered?
36376	Are you then your own master?
36376	As we entered, she pointed to him, where he lay on his bed, and said,''_ there_, did thee ever see any thing look so natural?''
36376	Aye, how will you prevent it?
36376	But do the buckskins generally stir so early as this?"
36376	But is this the way to recover our friendship and trade?
36376	But now taking all this for granted, what is still your idea of the true religion?"
36376	But now that the money is all gone, and I without a shilling to replace it, what''s to be done?
36376	But were you to succeed, do you imagine any good would be done by it?
36376	But what brain of man could have suspected this of him?
36376	But what can I write?
36376	But what is still your inference from all this, as to true religion?"
36376	But what madness must it be to run in debt for these superfluities?
36376	But whence, my son, could these prejudices have arisen?"
36376	But who does not see what will be the consequence of submitting to it?
36376	Ca n''t you take a passenger aboard?
36376	Did he, even at the early age of twenty- five, form an acquaintance with young persons fond of reading, but unable to purchase books?
36376	Do n''t they keep up family prayer?
36376	Do n''t you know Indian Dick?
36376	Do n''t you see the child is never happy but when he has a book in his hand?
36376	Do you suppose, my dear sir, that if I had but dreamt it was you, I would ever have touched the hair of your head?
36376	Every thing, you know, suffers by going to the_ West_, as the great French philosophers have proved; then why not the sun?"
36376	Faith, they are told, has done wonders for other people; why not for them?
36376	For who, for example, will ever get drunk who has no_ debts_ nor_ duns_ nor vices of any sort to make him_ uneasy_?
36376	From such an assembly, can a perfect production be expected?
36376	Have not the Americans ever shown themselves the warmest friends of their king and country?
36376	Have they not, in all cases of danger, most readily voted both their men and money to the full extent of their means, and sometimes far beyond?
36376	How can one of God''s attributes be greater than another, when all are infinite?"
36376	How much more than is necessary do we spend in sleep?
36376	How shall we be ever able to pay them?
36376	How then, without tears, could he for the last time, feel the strong pressure of his hand, and catch the parting glance?
36376	I do n''t understand you, child: what do you mean by the fig- leaf?"
36376	I, for my part, always takes great notice of dreams, they generally turn out so true._ And now can you tell what a droll dream I had last night?
36376	If men are so wicked_ with_ religion, what would they be_ without_ it?
36376	If they should, as_ merchants_, sand their sugar, or water their molasses, what great matter is that?
36376	If you were a servant, would you not be ashamed that a good master should catch you idle?
36376	If, as men of HONOUR, they should accept a challenge, and receive a shot in a duel, what of that?
36376	In short, why should the countenance of a state be_ partially_ afforded to its people, unless it be most in favour of those who have most merit?"
36376	Is it not in this way that the devil himself most effectually works our ruin?
36376	Is it not the more dangerous for being a trifle?
36376	Look among the Egyptians-- the Greeks-- the Romans, to equal him?
36376	Methinks I hear some of you say,"must a man afford himself no leisure?"
36376	Must not the blood that is formed of vegetables be the purest in nature?
36376	Must not the regret of our parents be excessive, at having placed so great a distance between sisters who are so perfectly equal?
36376	Near eighty letters set up in less than four minutes, and without a blunder?
36376	No, indeed, replied Ben; well what do you think of that anecdote of him, lately published in the New England Courant from a London paper?
36376	Now gentlemen, can any of you make this lovely child the minister of Dives''bounty to poor Lazarus?
36376	Now what can be more reasonable than doctor Franklin''s remarks on this very remarkable occurrence?
36376	Now, do you know what was my first employment, when I was a boy?"
36376	O say, my father, wo nt you come and live with me?"
36376	O, God bless you, Mr. CAT, is that you?
36376	One night Denham asked Ben how he would like a trip to America?
36376	Or that a whisker hath a charm, Eternal justice to disarm?"
36376	Or where was the land of Nod?
36376	Or, was it in the shape of a_ serpent or a monkey_ that the devil tempted Eve?
36376	Presently down came Sir Isaac-- was very glad to see his friend Sloan-- how had he been all this time?
36376	Ralph, it is true, did no work; but what of that?
36376	So then you''ll let Ben run free?
36376	So what signifies wishing and hoping for better times?
36376	Solomon, we know, was fallible; what wonder then young Franklin?
36376	Soon as she saw me, she said,''Well David, how dost?''"
36376	The moment for trial being come, and the minister giving the signal to begin, the speaker thus commenced:--_ Q._ What is your name and place of abode?
36376	Thee remembers the story of Joseph, does thee not?
36376	Their assent was quickly obtained: but what shall we make it of?
36376	Then measuring Ben from head to foot, he said with a sly quizzing sort of air, and pray now my little man where may you have come from?
36376	They seemed to say to him,"_ O my father, must we part to- morrow?_""Yes, Ben, we part to- morrow, and perhaps never to meet again!"
36376	They were not born for any such thing._ Ben wanted to know what they_ were_ born for?
36376	We could not all conveniently start together; and why should you and I be grieved at this, since we are soon to follow, and know where to find him?
36376	Well, I wonder now if they have any such thing as_ money_ in Philadelphia?
36376	What luck?_"cried the doctor.
36376	What made him so importunate with his young acquaintance in London, to divert them from their brutalizing and fatal intemperance?
36376	What made him so liberal of his money and services to the base Collins and Ralph?
36376	What made him so patient and forgiving of the injuries done him by the worthless Keimer and Keith?
36376	What success?_"Ben, with a smile, drew his father''s letter from his pocket.
36376	What would you advise us to do?"
36376	What, that the women are as capable of studying the sciences as the men?
36376	Who can tell what this anxious father felt when he saw his son return as he did?
36376	Who depopulated the fine negro- coasts of Africa?
36376	Who extirpated many of the once glorious Indian nations of America?
36376	Who,"he asks crowingly,"filled Asia with fire and sword in the bloody wars of the Crusades?
36376	Whoever saw a meeting- house before without a pulpit?_ He could not for his life conceive where the preacher was to stand.
36376	Why then should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals-- a new member added to their society?
36376	Why, sure, Mr. Tenant, you are the man that converted me?_"_"I converted you!"
36376	Will not these_ heavy taxes_, quite ruin the country?
36376	Yes, Ben, without the hopes of immortality, how much better he had never been born?
36376	You have eyes, sir; and do n''t these show you that the sun rises in the east and travels to the west?"
36376	You remember father, the old story of the pork, do n''t you?"
36376	_ But_, said some,_ will not the assembly haul you over the coals for thus attempting to whip the d----l round the stump?_ No, replied James.
36376	_ Monster!_ cried Newton with a face inflamed as if it had been toasting at the tail of one of his comets,_ did you mean to burn me alive?
36376	_ Where are you bound?_ said he.
36376	and how did he leave his good lady and family?
36376	and mark the deep distress of the citizens, as with tearful eyes they beheld the flames swallowing up their pleasant habitations and furniture?
36376	but how are we to imitate him?"
36376	d- d- d- don''t you know me, Mr. Tenant?
36376	has he so?"
36376	his having been_ born and brought up in a land of Gospel light and love_?
36376	how do, Mr. Tenant?_"Tenant could not look at him.
36376	how he was betrayed by his brethren into Egypt, not only a poor lad like thee, but indeed a slave too?
36376	or rather did they not display a rouge of health and fire of genius, far beyond those silly youths who crammed on all the luxuries of the royal table?
36376	retorted the cat, with a tiger- like growl, dare you talk of_ mercy_ after treating me thus, who never injured you?"
36376	said Ben,"and pray what''s become of the Scotch?
36376	said Ben,"who can that be?"
36376	said I,''what''s all this?''
36376	that is, what_ good_ would it be to the world?
36376	well, and where-- where did you get your education, pray?"
36376	what can that mean, my son?"
36376	what do you suppose they gave for seven millions of acres of rich, heavy timbered Pennsylvania land?
36376	what signifies making two bites at a cherry?
36376	what, beyond sir Isaac?"
36376	where then,"said Palmer;"in Paris?"
36376	who was Melchizedeck?
36376	why that''s a droll dream sure enough, replied Ben; and pray, Madam, what do you ask for your old book?
36376	would it not be better for you to go to London, and choose these things yourself?
36376	you have not dined?
38469	For,said he,"I am often asked by those to whom I propose subscribing,_ Have you consulted Franklin on this business?
38469	Methinks I hear some of you say,''Must a man afford himself no leisure?'' 38469 Philadelphia?"
38469	So what signifies wishing and hoping for better times? 38469 What,"said the stranger,"is Ben Franklin, the printer, your son?
38469	Who, madam?
38469	Why,said one of them,"you surely do not suppose that the fort will not be taken?"
38469	''But dost thou love life?
38469	''If you were a servant, would you not be ashamed that a good master should catch you idle?

38469	And what does he think of it?_ And when I tell them I have not, they do not subscribe, but say,_ they will consider it_."
38469	And, after all, of what use is this pride of appearance, for which so much is risked, so much is suffered?

38469	the ease of his circumstances?
9607	''Why not?'' 9607 And I am to board with him, also, if I understand you, father?"
9607	And came all the way from Boston alone?
9607	And have poverty for our capital?
9607	And he owes you for board and lodgings?
9607	And how about money? 9607 And only seventeen years old now?"
9607	And spurious religion is all religion that he do not believe in, I suppose,suggested John,"come from above or below?
9607	And starve, too?
9607	And what are your prospects at Keimer''s?

9607	Any whistles?
9607	Are all Americans like you?
9607	Are you acquainted with him?
9607	Are you bringing forth more poetry?
9607	Are you hungry?
9607	Are you the young man who has opened this printing house?
9607	Because Philadelphia is degenerating, and half the people are now bankrupt, or nearly so, and how can they support so many printers?
9607	Because you think it is wicked to kill harmless animals of any kind?
9607	Been to see the governor, hey?
9607	Benjamin,said Mr. Franklin, after a little,"where were you last evening?"
9607	Boston, hey? 9607 But I suppose you want to go to work at your old trade?
9607	But are there such men as these in thee, O New England? 9607 But can you tell me what selfish end he has in view, for Keimer would never come down like that unless he had an axe to grind?"
9607	But dost thou love life? 9607 But how am I going to get along without you, Ben?
9607	But how can I get aboard? 9607 But how do you propose to reach the public, and interest them in your plan?"
9607	But if we sinners do not object, why should you saints? 9607 But will you not allow some comfort to hard- working men?"
9607	But you did not work at the candle business long, if you became a printer at twelve?
9607	But, do you notice,added one of the club,"that no one but James Franklin is forbidden to publish the_ Courant_?
9607	Ca n''t you see it?
9607	Can I find employment in your printing office?
9607	Can I see him?
9607	Can I see him?
9607	Can any one particular form of government suit all mankind? 9607 Can it be you, my son?
9607	Can it be you?
9607	Can that be?
9607	Can you give me any idea of the time it will take, after you return, to get a printing house in running order?
9607	Can you take a friend of mine to New York?
9607	Can you take me in? 9607 Can you teach my two sons the art at once?"
9607	Come here dead broke? 9607 Come, Ben, let us row him; he do n''t know what he is about,"said one of the other boys;"what signifies it?"
9607	Did he say so?
9607	Did they belong to you?
9607	Did you ask the price of it?
9607	Do n''t that sound well, my boy? 9607 Do n''t they smell good?"
9607	Do n''t you ever drink it?
9607	Do n''t_ you_ eat fish?
9607	Do you find all the books you want to read?
9607	Do you know him?
9607	Do you know his name?

9607	Do you think I pay more for your board than it is worth?

9607	Do you think he means to make Philadelphia his home in the future?
9607	Do you understand a printing press well enough to repair it?
9607	Do you understand all parts of it so that you can go on with it?
9607	Do you understand that part of the business?
9607	Does Mr. Keimer suspect that any thing in particular is on the tapis? 9607 Does your father know about it?"
9607	Each man to arm himself at his own expense, I suppose?
9607	Employ you?
9607	Goin''to stop some time in Philadelphy?
9607	Going back?
9607	Going out for your employer?
9607	Going?
9607	Good pay?
9607	Got brothers and sisters?
9607	Got friends in Philadelphia?
9607	Had any ill- luck on your way?
9607	Has the governor of the Massachusetts Province sent for you?
9607	Have any trouble to accomplish it? 9607 Have you a subject to suggest?"
9607	Have you spoken with your father about it?
9607	He does; do you wish to see him?
9607	Here, Jake, where are you?
9607	How about articles for it? 9607 How can you expect to get all the business when there is another printer here, who has been established some time?"
9607	How did they feel about your going so far from home?
9607	How do you propose to get to New York? 9607 How does Philadelphia compare with Boston?"
9607	How does it happen, then, that some of their works are so popular?
9607	How expensive will such a measure be? 9607 How far is it to Philadelphia?"
9607	How in the world did he happen to come here with you?
9607	How is James? 9607 How is that, Ben?
9607	How is that? 9607 How is that?
9607	How is that? 9607 How is that?"
9607	How large is the place?
9607	How long have you worked at the business?
9607	How long shall I have to wait?
9607	How long will you be gone?
9607	How many copies shall you publish in the first issue?
9607	How many copies will you print?
9607	How many members should the organization embrace?
9607	How many subscribers have you?
9607	How may smoky chimneys be best cured? 9607 How may the phenomenon of vapors be explained?
9607	How may the possession of the lakes be improved to our advantage? 9607 How much did you give for the whistle?"
9607	How much further you going?
9607	How much money have you?
9607	How old are you?
9607	How old?
9607	How so?
9607	How so?
9607	How so?
9607	How so?
9607	How so?
9607	How soon will the sloop sail?
9607	How soon will you return?
9607	How soon will you want the inventory of articles?
9607	How will it do for me to return with you?
9607	How would this plan do?
9607	How would you like to learn the printer''s trade with your brother James?
9607	How would you like to return to Philadelphia?
9607	How, then, can you meet the difficulty?
9607	How?
9607	I am a stranger in this town; arrived here this morning; can you tell me where I can get a night''s lodging?
9607	I am booked for the mercantile business in Philadelphia"How is that? 9607 I shall like that,"answered Benjamin;"but why can I not attend school until I am old enough to help you?"
9607	I should like to know what?
9607	I want to see him; will you call him?
9607	I would like to know where you discover evidence of it?
9607	If you know, why have you not disclosed it before?
9607	Is he a young man of standing and good habits?
9607	Is it inconsistent with the principles of liberty in a free government, to punish a man as a libeller when he speaks the truth?
9607	Is self- interest the rudder that steers mankind, the universal monarch to whom all are tributaries? 9607 Is that so?
9607	Is that so?
9607	Is the emission of paper money safe? 9607 Is there a man at work in your printing house by the name of Franklin-- Benjamin Franklin?"
9607	May I have some?
9607	May not a military force carry the Stamp Act into execution?
9607	Mr. Franklin, what is the lowest price you will take for this book?
9607	No work in Boston, I s''pose, hey? 9607 No work in New York, hey?
9607	No; I have followed the land mostly; but there are hard storms on the land, are there not?
9607	Not just now,replied Benjamin;"but what chance is there for landing on such a rocky shore?"
9607	Of what use are Rhetoric and Logic? 9607 One dollar,"repeated the lounger;"ca n''t you take less than that?"
9607	Only ninety?
9607	Perhaps Boston is tired of him-- is that so? 9607 Pray, tell us how?
9607	Raising money for the same by subscription, do you mean?
9607	Second- hand, I conclude?
9607	Shall I do it immediately?
9607	Suppose a military force sent into America; they will find nobody in arms; what are they, then, to do? 9607 That is very kind on your part; but is it not true, that two printing houses are as many as this town can support well?"
9607	That is what I want,he said to the boy;"where did you get that?"
9607	That is, become a water- drinker, you mean, Ben?
9607	That is, you propose to board me for one shilling and sixpence a week?
9607	The printing business bring you that?
9607	Thee going to remain here some time?
9607	Then he could not take the concern into his own hands for you to run?
9607	Then he ran away from Boston?
9607	Then he was a minister, was he?
9607	Then you are a poet are you?
9607	Then you do n''t believe a man can do more work for drinking strong beer?
9607	Then you do n''t think I am good enough to go back with you?
9607	Then you do n''t want I should go with you?
9607	Then you do not consider it a complete success?
9607	Then you do not now believe all that you have been taught about religion, if I understand you?
9607	Then you had to resort to falsehood to carry your point, did you? 9607 Then you have followed the sea, have you?"
9607	Then you stole them, did you?
9607	Then you think more of the style than you do of the matter?
9607	Then you will sell out your interest to me, if I understand you?
9607	Then, we are to understand that his name is Benjamin?
9607	Then, why is not the whole subject fairly before us?
9607	There is another printer here, is there not?
9607	There, are you all right now?
9607	Think you can do better in trading than printing?
9607	Want more gingerbread?
9607	Well, Philadelphy is a great place for work; what sort of work do you want?
9607	Well, what do you think of the plan?
9607	What are the body of the people in the Colonies?
9607	What are you going to buy, Ben?
9607	What book have you there, Ben?

9607	What did you build it with?
9607	What did you come here for?
9607	What do you propose to do if you leave your brother?
9607	What do you say to taking that, Ralph?
9607	What do you say, Ralph?
9607	What do you suppose that fellow has done? 9607 What do you think of my going to Philadelphia with you?"
9607	What do you think of my prospects here, sir?
9607	What do you think of the idea of taking this baby into the house of God to- day, and consecrating him to the Lord?
9607	What do you want of such a book as that?
9607	What does he do that is so bad?
9607	What else would you like to do?
9607	What experience have you had?
9607	What has happened now, Ben?
9607	What have you there, Ben?
9607	What have you there, Ben?
9607	What have you to propose? 9607 What in the world could suggest such a_ nom de plume_ to a writer?"
9607	What is cruel?
9607	What is it?
9607	What is it?
9607	What is that?
9607	What is that?
9607	What is the conveyance there?
9607	What is the reason that men of the greatest knowledge are not the most happy? 9607 What is the reason that the tides rise higher in the Bay of Fundy than the Bay of Delaware?
9607	What is there about it that interests you so much?
9607	What is your opinion of my article?
9607	What kind of a place is it?
9607	What kind of money do you have there?
9607	What makes you think he has gambled?
9607	What makes you think so?
9607	What now?
9607	What of that?
9607	What put such a queer notion as that into your head?
9607	What sort of an invention? 9607 What was your business?"
9607	What were you doing there?
9607	What would you have if you could get it; roast chicken and plum pudding?
9607	What ye goin''to Philadelphy for?
9607	What you got there?
9607	When shall I begin?
9607	When will you go?
9607	When will you let us see it on trial?
9607	Where are you from, young man?
9607	Where are you from?
9607	Where are you from?
9607	Where did you come from?
9607	Where did you get your stones?
9607	Where have you been, Ben?
9607	Where have you been?
9607	Where will you get your lumber?
9607	Where?
9607	Wherein is my reasoning illogical or incorrect?
9607	Whether it ought to be the aim of philosophy to eradicate the passions? 9607 Which is the best form of government, and what was that form which first prevailed among mankind?
9607	Which is the least criminal, a_ bad_ action joined with a_ good_ intention, or a_ good_ action with a_ bad_ intention? 9607 Who is Governor Burnet, that he should want to see me?"
9607	Who is your friend? 9607 Who is''Silence Dogood''?"
9607	Why are tumultuous, uneasy sensations united with our desires? 9607 Why did you think so?"
9607	Why do n''t you learn? 9607 Why does n''t he find work in Boston?
9607	Why does the flame of a candle tend upwards in a spire? 9607 Why not get into one of the other printing offices in town?
9607	Why not? 9607 Why so, father?
9607	Why, then, did you take them in the evening, after the workmen had gone home? 9607 Why?"
9607	Will the Americans consent to pay the stamp duty if it is lessened?
9607	Will you employ me as journeyman printer?
9607	Will you row now?
9607	Will you row, John?
9607	Will you tell who the author is now?
9607	Would n''t it be a joke on those fellows if they should find their pile of stones missing in the morning?
9607	Would n''t you like to go, Ben?
9607	Would the people of Boston discontinue their trade?
9607	Would they suffer the produce of their lands to rot?
9607	Would you be willing that I should exchange Bunyan''s works for them?
9607	Writing a sermon or your will? 9607 Yes, there''s three- penny worth; that is what you said, was it not?"
9607	You are the author of a pamphlet called,and he gave the title,"are you?"
9607	You did not know that man, did you?
9607	You have a purse, I understand, made of the_ asbestos_, which purifies by fire?
9607	You have no idea who wrote it, then?
9607	You have? 9607 You think that Sir William Keith is reliable, do you?"
9607	You will give him an education, I suppose?
9607	You will not take him out of school until John leaves, will you?
9607	Your father and mother living?
9607	Your work is increasing, I suppose?
9607	''_ Sells_ hats?''
9607	A member raised the question,"Can another printing house prosper in town?"
9607	All that?"
9607	And have we now forgotten that powerful Friend?
9607	And he is settled now in Philadelphia?"
9607	And in what fair, likely way may we endeavor it?
9607	And why, Benjamin, do you deem an engagement necessary in the circumstances?"
9607	And, if a sparrow can not fall to the ground without his notice, is it probably that an empire can rise without his aid?
9607	Are you a printer?"
9607	Are you acquainted here?"
9607	Benjamin?
9607	But I shall want to hear from you, Ben,--can''t you write?"
9607	But I wanted to ask you about your Boston experience in a printing office; what office was you in?"
9607	But are you not a little odd in discarding what nearly every one uses?"
9607	But does it work easy?"
9607	But he inquired:"How about the price to be paid for the passage?"
9607	But how about Shaftesbury?
9607	But how could he prove it?
9607	But how should he disclose?
9607	But how will you dispose of it?"
9607	But how will you get along with your indenture if you leave him?"
9607	But just what will you do at your public meeting?"
9607	But must I discard it because some men use it to their injury?"
9607	But suppose the captain is very inquisitive about me, how will you get along with the case?
9607	But the senior broke the silence by saying:"You write for the press?
9607	But what sort of a swimming apparatus have you in mind?"
9607	But why do you seek work in this country?"
9607	By changing the name of the paper?"
9607	Ca n''t you make it go?"
9607	Can I look them over for my letters?"
9607	Can we not arrange to go into business together?"
9607	Could n''t you turn your hand to something else?"
9607	Could she believe her eyes?
9607	Could we get work at our business?"
9607	Could we, who were lookers on, think it real?
9607	Denham?"
9607	Did I not prophesy that he would make his mark in manhood?"
9607	Did I not say that Benjamin would not always make candles?
9607	Do n''t he think they are worthy of print?"
9607	Do we know of any person languishing under sore and sad affliction; and is there any thing we can do for the succor of such an afflicted neighbor?
9607	Do you love truth for truth''s sake; and will you endeavor impartially to find and receive it yourself, and communicate it to others?
9607	Do you mean to say that you wrote those articles?"
9607	Do you sincerely declare that you love mankind in general, of what profession or religion soever?
9607	Do you think any person ought to be harmed in his body, name, or goods, for mere speculative opinion, or his external way of worship?
9607	Does James know how you feel about it?"
9607	Does there appear any instance of oppression or fraudulence in the dealings of any sort of people that may call for our essays to get it rectified?
9607	Entering the bake- shop, he inquired:"Have you biscuit?"
9607	Expect that your brother will lay violent hands upon you to prevent?"
9607	Finally, however, James''curiosity grew to such proportions that he inquired one day,--"Ben, how much do you make by boarding yourself?"
9607	Got any plans ahead?"
9607	Had they not bound themselves by solemn covenant to aid the devil in destroying human souls and afflicting the elect?
9607	Has not Captain Homes told you where I was?"
9607	Have you any other pieces?"
9607	Have you any particular disrespect to any present member?
9607	He ventured to inquire:"What can you tell me about Mrs. Read and her daughter?"
9607	How about your books-- can you sell them?"
9607	How can I make the best on''t?"
9607	How can you tell whether they are mentally inferior or not, until they are permitted to enjoy equal advantages?"
9607	How can you want to leave your good home, and all your friends, to live in a ship, exposed to storms and death all the time?"
9607	How did Captain Homes discover his place of residence?
9607	How is that?"
9607	How long have you been on the way?"
9607	How long since you left?"
9607	How long will it take to learn the trade?"
9607	How much will he pay for his passage?"
9607	How was that, John?"
9607	How would that do?"
9607	How would you like to number Sir Isaac Newton among your friends?"
9607	How would you like your Cousin Samuel''s business?"
9607	I can tell better when have looked in upon other trades When shall we go?"
9607	I suppose he is at the printing office?
9607	I would like to educate you for the ministry if I could; how would you like that?"
9607	If beer imparts the strength you imagine, any one of you ought to do more work and lift more than I can; is n''t that so?"
9607	In his walk he came around to the river, and, as he approached it, he discovered a boat with several people in it, and he hailed them:"Whither bound?"
9607	Is it not enough that we have lost one son in that way?
9607	Is there any matter to be humbly moved unto the Legislative Power, to be enacted into a Law for the public benefit?
9607	Is there any other conveyance to Philadelphia?"
9607	Is there any remarkable disorder in the place that requires our endeavor for the suppression of it?
9607	Is there any sort of officers among us to such a degree unmindful of their duty that we may do well to mind them of it?
9607	Is there any special service to the interest of Religion which we may conveniently desire our ministers to take notice of?
9607	Is there any thing more I can do for you?"
9607	Is there any thing we may do well to mention unto the justices for the further promoting good order?
9607	It requires activity of thought-- but without that what is any reading but mere passive amusement?
9607	May I have some, pa?"
9607	Now, honestly, is not this much better for me, or for yourself, than the same amount of filthy beer?"
9607	On returning, one of the gentlemen said:"Franklin, why can you not give us an exhibition of your antics in the water?"
9607	One day a lounger stepped into his shop, and, after looking over the articles, asked:"What is the price of that book?"
9607	One of the first questions that Benjamin asked was:"How did you learn that I was living in Philadelphia?"
9607	Or, are there any contending persons whom we should admonish to quench their contentions?
9607	People on every hand inquired,"Who is_ Busy Body_?"
9607	The editor had some trouble with the Government, did he not?"
9607	The following are some of the questions discussed by members of the Junto:"Is sound an entity or body?
9607	The governor of New York sent for me-- Governor Burnet-- what do you think of that?"
9607	Then Benjamin would cry out:"Will you row now, John?"
9607	They are for my good; and, besides, what are the pains of a moment in comparison with the pleasures of eternity?"
9607	This forward spring foretells a plenteous crop; For, if the bud bear grain, what will the top?
9607	Waiting a few moments, and still looking over the book, he said, at length:"Is Mr. Franklin at home?"
9607	Was it any wonder?
9607	Watts?"
9607	Were they not in league with Satan, the arch- enemy of God and man?
9607	Were you not a printer in London?"
9607	What does paving cost a square yard?"
9607	What has he written?"
9607	What is the matter with it?"
9607	What is your name?"
9607	What kin ye du?"
9607	What should he do?
9607	What sort of a boy must he be?
9607	What sort of work do you do, that you find it so scarce?"
9607	What will you have done?"
9607	What would you advise me to do?"
9607	What, then, is the use of that word?''
9607	When will you begin to keep your boarder?"
9607	Where is your home?"
9607	Whether it was so or not, his father replied:"I should like to read it; what is it about?"
9607	Who can be so thoughtless?"
9607	Who can it be?"
9607	Why did you not go after them when the workmen were all there?
9607	Will you have any trouble about getting articles?"
9607	Will you learn a lesson from this, and never do the like again?"
9607	With an effort to conceal his surprise and interest, he asked:"For whom does he work?"
9607	You ask what I mean?
9607	You can teach two as well as one, ca n''t you?"
9607	You did not awaken his suspicion, did you?"
9607	Your parents living?"
9607	all you have?"
9607	back again?"
9607	can it be you?"
9607	continued his mother;"Something to make us crazy?"
9607	exclaimed John with surprise,"did you give all your money for that little concern?"
9607	exclaimed his father,"can that be you?"
9607	exclaimed the captain;"how you goin''to eat''em before you catch''em?"
9607	or do we imagine we no longer need his assistance?
9607	poetry is it?"
9607	responded Potts, who had listened to Franklin''s plan;"is that all it will cost?"
48138	What,say they,"shall we lay out our money to protect the trade of Quakers?
48138	Would twenty shillings have ruined Mr. Hampden''s fortune? 48138 Your reasons for that opinion?"
48138	Your reasons for that opinion?
48138	''Methinks I hear some of you say,"must a man afford himself no leisure?"
48138	''So what signifies wishing and hoping for better times?
48138	Admit it to be true, though perhaps the amazing increase of English consumption might stop most of it here,--to whose profit is this to redound?
48138	Among these witty gentlemen let us take a view of Ridentius: what a contemptible figure does he make with his train of paltry admirers?
48138	An odd volume of a set of books bears not the value of its proportion to the set: what think you of the odd half of a pair of scissars?
48138	And are not the public the only judges what share of reputation they think proper to allow any man?
48138	And are not the_ royal_ governments around us exempt from_ these_ misfortunes?
48138	And are ye still?
48138	And can you really, gentlemen, find matter of triumph in this_ rejection_ as you call it?
48138	And do they know that, by that statute, money is not to be raised on the subject but by consent of parliament?
48138	And do those of you, gentlemen, reproach me with this, who, among near four thousand voters, had scarcely a score more than I had?
48138	And if I draw ill ones, can they fit any but those that deserve them?
48138	And is our_ country_, any more than our city, altogether free from danger?
48138	And others who live in the country, when they are told of the danger the city is in from attempts by sea, may say,"What is that to us?
48138	And ought any but such to be concerned that they have their deserts?
48138	And possess it they did, even without a standing army:( what can be a stronger proof of the security of their possession?)
48138	And what are the advantages they may reasonably expect?
48138	And what hast thou here?_[ Would to God no such priests were to be found among us].
48138	And why do you think I have a fixed enmity to the proprietaries?
48138	And why may not a man use the boldness and freedom of telling his friends, that their long visits sometimes incommode him?
48138	And why"except the Indian ravages,"is a_ little intermission_ to be denominated"the most perfect tranquillity?"
48138	And would it not seem less right, if the charge and labour of gaining the additional territory to Britain had been borne by the settlers themselves?
48138	And would they not then object to such a duty?
48138	And yet is there not too much of it?
48138	And yet_ here_ was no proprietary clamour about bribery,& c. And why so?
48138	And, after all, of what use is this pride of appearance, for which so much is risked, so much is suffered?
48138	Are not the people of city and country connected as relations, both by blood and marriage, and in friendships equally dear?
48138	Are there not pamphlets continually written, and daily sold in our streets, to justify and encourage it?
48138	Are these agents or commissaries to try causes where life is concerned?
48138	Are they not likewise united in interest, and mutually useful and necessary to each other?
48138	Are you then your own master?
48138	As how?
48138	But are these the sentiments of true Pensylvanians, of fellow- countrymen, or even of men, that have common sense or goodness?
48138	But if I go into a white man''s house at Albany, and ask for victuals and drink, they say, Where is your money?
48138	But is it not a fact known to you all, that the assembly_ did_ endeavour to strengthen the hands of the government?
48138	But is this right reasoning?
48138	But what does that avail to you, who are in the proprietary interest?
48138	But what is the testimony of the assembly; who in his opinion are equally rash, ignorant, and inconsiderate with the petitioners?
48138	But what will fame be to an ephemera, who no longer exists?
48138	By the colony assemblies, or by parliament?
48138	By whom are they to be repealed?
48138	By whom were they quieted?
48138	Called in again._]_ Q._ Is the American stamp act an equal tax on the country?
48138	Can no one bear it for me?
48138	Can this be from proprietary partizans?
48138	Can you really, gentlemen, by no means conceive, that proprietary government disagreements are incident to the nature of proprietary governments?
48138	Could he do this in Ireland?
48138	Could_ you_, much respected[ Mr. Norris], go but a little farther, and disapprove the application itself?
48138	Did you embrace it, and how often?
48138	Do_ you_ intend to give them up, when at the next election_ you_ are made assemblymen?
48138	For he govern''d his passions,& c. What signifies our wishing?
48138	For what have I done, that they should think unfavourably of me?
48138	From such an assembly can a perfect production be expected?
48138	Has the government sufficient strength, even with all its supports, to venture on the apprehending and punishment of those notorious offenders?
48138	Have we then any thing that we can call our own?
48138	Have you ever seen the barometer so low as of late?
48138	His circumstances are such, as only put him above necessity, without affording him many superfluities: yet who is greater than Cato?
48138	How different from this character is that of the good- natured, gay Eugenius?
48138	How many impertinencies do we daily suffer with great uneasiness, because we have not courage enough to discover our dislike?
48138	How shall we ever be able to pay them?
48138	How then can my going to England prevent this accommodation?
48138	How very few of us continue so long?
48138	I suppose it can not exceed 40,000_l.__ Q._ How then do you pay the balance?
48138	If I know a man to be a designing knave, must I ask his consent, to bid my friends beware of him?
48138	If any thing is meant by asking, why any man''s picture should be published which he never sat for?
48138	If it has not, why are you angry at those who would strengthen its hands by a more immediate royal authority?
48138	If it has, why is not the thing done?
48138	If it is asked,_ What_ can such farmers raise, wherewith to pay for the manufactures they may want from us?
48138	If so, tell it us honestly beforehand, that we may know what we are to expect when we are about to choose you?
48138	If such should be the case, which God forbid, how soon may the mischief spread to our frontier countries?
48138	If then we consider and compare Britain and America, in these several particulars, upon the question,"To which is it safest to lend money?"
48138	If you were a servant, would you not be ashamed that a good master should catch you idle?
48138	In fine, why should the countenance of a state be_ partially_ afforded to its people, unless it be most in favour of those who have most merit?
48138	In the mean time, why do you"believe it will preclude all_ accommodation_ with them on just and reasonable terms?"
48138	Is it as unpopular as it was at first?
48138	Is it not I, who, in the character of your physician, have saved you from the palsy, dropsy, and apoplexy?
48138	Is it right to encourage this monstrous deficiency of natural affection?
48138	Is not the parliament?
48138	Is not the whole province one body, united by living under the same laws, and enjoying the same privileges?
48138	Is our tranquillity more perfect now, than it was between the first riot and the second, or between the second and the third?
48138	Is there then the least hope remaining, that from that quarter any thing should arise for our security?
48138	It is true, that in some of the states there are parties and discords; but let us look back, and ask if we were ever without them?
48138	Must not the regret of our parents be excessive, at having placed so great a difference between sisters, who are so perfectly equal?
48138	Of what kinds of people are the members; landholders or traders?
48138	On whom may we fix our eyes with the least expectation, that they will do any thing for our security?
48138	Or can they be_ deprived_ of their charter rights without their consent?"
48138	Or, since they_ were not_ left there, why was the American dispute begun?
48138	Probably; but is there any case in any government where it is not possible to_ endeavour_ such a discovery?
48138	Shall we fight to defend Quakers?
48138	She may doubtless destroy them all; but if she wishes to recover our commerce, are these the probable means?
48138	Suppose either Indian or trader is dissatisfied with the tariff, and refuses barter on those terms, are the refusers to be compelled?
48138	That, at his honour''s instance, they prepared and passed in a few hours a bill for extending hither the act of parliament for dispersing rioters?
48138	The hasty gentleman, whose blood runs high, Who picks a quarrel, if you step awry, Who ca n''t a jest, or hint, or look endure: What''s he?
48138	The power of_ appointing public officers_ by the representatives of the people, which he so much extols, where is it now?
48138	Vos cunctamini etiam nunc,& dubitatis quid faciatis?
48138	Was it not worthy of his care, that the world should say he was an honest and a good man?
48138	Was it with an intent to reproach me thus publicly for accepting it?
48138	We all know how they were supported; but have they been_ fully_ supported?
48138	We can not all fly with our families; and if we could, how shall we subsist?
48138	We could not all conveniently start together: and why should you and I be grieved at this, since we are soon to follow, and know where to find him?
48138	Wedderburn._ The address mentions certain papers: I could wish to be informed what are those papers?
48138	Well, Hans, says I, I hope you have agreed to give more than four shillings a pound?
48138	What are our poets, take them as they fall, Good, bad, rich, poor, much read, not read at all?
48138	What could they desire more?
48138	What do they do there?"
48138	What do they spend it in when they are here, but the produce and manufactures of this country;--and would they not do the same if they were at home?
48138	What have I done to merit these cruel sufferings?
48138	What is your opinion they would do?
48138	What makest thou in this place?
48138	What other moves can I make to support it, and to defend myself from his attacks?"
48138	What then could their lordships mean by the proposed amendment?
48138	What use can my adversary make of it to annoy me?
48138	What would you advise us to?''
48138	What?
48138	When wilt thou be esteemed, regarded, and beloved like Cato?
48138	When wilt thou, among thy creatures, meet with that unfeigned respect and warm good- will that all men have for him?
48138	Where then shall we seek for succour and protection?
48138	Wherewith, they say, shall we show our loyalty to our gracious king, if our money is to be given by others, without asking our consent?
48138	While the mornings are long, and you have leisure to go abroad, what do you do?
48138	Who shall pay that expence?
48138	Why should it?
48138	Why then should we grieve, that a new child is born among the immortals, a new member added to their happy society?
48138	Why then were the French_ not left_ in Canada, at the peace of 1763?
48138	Why was it so long delayed?
48138	Why was the bringing and the delivery of such orders so long_ denied_?
48138	Why was this man received with such concurring respect from every person in the room, even from those, who had never known him or seen him before?
48138	Why were those healing instructions so long withheld and concealed from the people?
48138	Will any paper match him?
48138	Will not the colonies view it in this light?
48138	Will not the first effect of this be, an enhancing of the price of all foreign goods to the tradesman and farmer, who use or consume them?
48138	Will not these heavy taxes quite ruin the country?
48138	Will the people that have begun to manufacture decline it?
48138	Will the wolves then protect the sheep, if they can but persuade them to give up their dogs?
48138	Would it not be better, to send the criminals into some civil well settled government or colony for trial, where good juries can be had?
48138	Would not the profits of the merchant and mariner be rather greater, and some addition made to our navigation, ships and seamen?
48138	Would this be right, even if the land were gained at the expence of the state?
48138	Would you have had your representatives give up those points?
48138	Would you know, how they forward the circulation of your fluids, in the very action of transporting you from place to place?
48138	Would you wish to see your great and amiable prince act a part that could not become a dey of Algiers?
48138	You ask, what I mean?
48138	You saw that we, who understand and practice those rules, believed all your stories, why do you refuse to believe ours?"
48138	Your reasons for that opinion?
48138	Your reasons for that opinion?

26442	Know? 26442 Like Uncle Ben''s?"

26442	Like''The noblest question in the world is what good may I do in it?'' 26442 May I go with you, Jane?
26442	Mercy-- daughter-- and what was that?

26442	Sir?
26442	So you eat fish,said Franklin, addressing the prize;"then why may I not eat_ you_?"
26442	So, what signifies wishing and hoping for better times? 26442 That''s right, my man.--Now, Jenny, what did I say?"
26442	The Governor looked upon the heart, did n''t he? 26442 The principal question in life is, What good can I do in the world?"
26442	Then why, my son, should not a governor of a rich province himself provide you with means to become a printer for the advancement of the province?
26442	They do to sail away with, but where will one land if he has not got the steering gear? 26442 True, true, my boy; and what of that?"
26442	Uncle Ben, do you not think that it is the hardest thing in life for one to be told that he can not do what he most wants to do?
26442	Uncle Ben,she asked,"was Uncle Tom ever laughed at?"
26442	Uncle,said Jenny,"why do you always have something solemn to say?
26442	Was Solomon a poet? 26442 Was his father''s advice sound, after all?"

26442	Well, what is to hinder you, Ben? 26442 What Jane-- who?"

26442	What are_ you_ shouting for?
26442	What did I tell you before Ben came in?
26442	What did I tell you?
26442	What did I tell you?
26442	What did he say his name was?
26442	What did he say?

26442	What is coming?
26442	What is it for?

26442	What is it? 26442 What is that, sir?"
26442	What is that?
26442	What is the banquet to be for?
26442	What is this I hear? 26442 What is your opinion, doctor?"
26442	What makes people who come to the shop laugh at Ben? 26442 What was it, Abiah?"
26442	What was that, Jane?
26442	What was the man''s name that bought them, uncle?
26442	What was the name of that man to whom I sold the pamphlets?
26442	What were your pamphlets, uncle? 26442 What were your pamphlets?"
26442	What will that man Franklin do next?
26442	What will we do without a king?
26442	What, Philadelphia?
26442	What, father?
26442	What, sir, is it about Earls-- Barton, and Mears-- Ashby?
26442	What, sir?
26442	What-- what is that?
26442	What-- what is this I hear?
26442	What?
26442	What?
26442	Where do you keep him?
26442	Where from?
26442	Where''s Ben to- night?

26442	Who, brother?
26442	Who, uncle?
26442	Whose name you bear? 26442 Why are you sorry, sir?"
26442	Why can not I do as other boys?
26442	Why do you call him a guinea pig, uncle?
26442	Why do you cry, papa?
26442	Why do you think so much of the lost pamphlets, uncle?
26442	Why should these inhabitants of the sea be deprived of their lives and opportunities of enjoyment? 26442 Why, boys, are you watching the old gentleman?"
26442	Why, father?
26442	Why?
26442	Will what?
26442	Wo n''t that be a good one? 26442 Would he have me, father?
26442	Would n''t a spinet be rather out of place in a candle shop?
26442	Would n''t it be saving of time to say grace now over the whole barrel of provisions, and then you could omit it at meals?
26442	Would you like to know who wrote it, Jenny?
26442	You did, hey? 26442 You do?
26442	You sold them, uncle?
26442	You think that the book is interesting?

26442	Admit a man to the royal presence in his own head alone?
26442	And if we need an agent abroad, why should we send a printer and a lightning- rod man?
26442	And why?
26442	And you are going to print the paper money for the province, are you?
26442	And you will never forget me, will you, Ben?"
26442	And, after all, of what use is this pride of appearance, for which so much is risked, so much is suffered?
26442	Are the Proverbs poetry?"
26442	Are you ready?
26442	Are you, then, your own master?
26442	Ben is n''t solemn, is he?"
26442	Ben, wot will ever become of you, I wonder?"
26442	Brother Benjamin, how did you get the money to cross the ocean?"
26442	Business, I tell you, is going to die here, and who would want to read what a stripling like you would write outside of business?
26442	But I sold them, for what were they if I could have the chance to live another life in little Ben?"
26442	But did n''t I tell you he was an honest man?
26442	But dost thou love life?
26442	But how about Titian Leeds, who was to die after the astrological prediction?
26442	But how are mistakes to be avoided in life?

26442	But why did boys have this peculiar fever in Boston and other New England towns at this time?
26442	But why did you take the name of_ Silence Dogood_?"
26442	Ca n''t you see what is coming?"
26442	Could he turn his own dreams into gold, or into that which is better than gold?
26442	Could it be possible that this woman, who was received at the Province House, had lost her moral and physical control?
26442	Did any one ever tell you that the people used to think him to be a wizard?"
26442	Did he come from the King of France?
26442	Did he ever see Governor Keith again?
26442	Did he intend to deceive?
26442	Did little Ben''s trumpet and gun indicate that he would become a statesman whose cause would employ armies?
26442	Did n''t you have the sense to know that those stones were building stones and belonged to the workmen?"
26442	Did you find the volume interesting?"
26442	Do n''t laugh at your old uncle; you can do it, little Ben-- can''t he Jenny?"
26442	Do n''t the king know how to govern his colonies?
26442	Do you hear it-- that awful, awful word_ bankruptcy_?
26442	Do you know what the king may yet be compelled to do?
26442	Do you know?"

26442	Do you think, Ben, that you will ever make the river run uphill?
26442	Does electricity fill all space?"
26442	Does he not know this rivalry and hear the plaudits that surround the name of Saratoga?
26442	Esther and Martha from school?
26442	Eureka!_""Wot did he do that for?"
26442	FACING PAGE Little Ben''s adventure as a poet_ Frontispiece_ Uncle Benjamin''s secret 52"Are you going to swim back to London?"
26442	Father Humphrey, what do you think of such things?"
26442	Father Humphrey, who do you suppose made those notes?
26442	Franklin read,"_ Eripuit coelo fulmen, sceptrumque tyrannis._""Brother, what does that mean?"
26442	Had he a chance?
26442	Have n''t you any eyes?"
26442	Have you any fuel?''
26442	Have you not heard?"
26442	Have you one entitled Human Freedom''?
26442	Have you thought of that?"
26442	He attended the conventicles, sir, and became a Brownite, sir, and----"Was the American gentleman going daft again?
26442	He had tried to profit by the old man''s lesson in answer to his own question,"Have I a chance?"
26442	He heard about the"morning stars singing together,"the"sweet influences of Pleiades,"and the question,"Canst thou bind the sea?"
26442	He is one of the human family, like all the rest of us.--Are you going to the lecture?
26442	He is the boy to do it, and I am the sister to help him to do it-- ain''t I, Uncle Benjamin?"
26442	He lifted his eyes and looked into the teacher''s face, and said:"Why do you reprove me?
26442	He looked up to his Uncle Ben with an earnest face, and said:"I would like to help folks, too; why can I not, if Uncle Tom did?"
26442	He might like to send me a harp, but what is a spinet but a harp in a box?"
26442	He saw that his new way of life led to somewhere-- where?
26442	He was soon in bed, the question,"Have I a chance?"
26442	His constant question was, What have I the chance or the opportunity to do?
26442	His inquiry was, What can the kite be made to teach that is useful?
26442	Homer was no printer, was he?"
26442	Horace, a little, blear- eyed, contemptible fellow, yet who so sententious and wise?
26442	How could he get over his principles and share the meal with the sailors?
26442	How could he increase electrical force?
26442	How did that come about?"
26442	How did there come into existence the"magical bottle"known as the Leyden jar?
26442	How did they come to you?"
26442	How did you get up the resolution to cross the sea in your old age?"

26442	How would Folger do-- Folger Franklin?
26442	I do pity him, do n''t you?
26442	I like to see him go-- don''t you?"
26442	I wonder if anybody will ever find her?''
26442	I wonder who wrote it?
26442	If electricity could be secured, accumulated, and discharged, what might not follow as the results of further experiments?
26442	If not, what would the_ next_ almanac say of him?
26442	If the king thinks it is advisable to tax the colonies for their own support, why should not his ministers be instructed to do so?
26442	If you were a servant, would you not be ashamed that a good master should catch you idle?
26442	Into what companies will he hereafter go with an unembarrassed face, or the honest intrepidity of virtue?
26442	Is a royal messenger coming?"
26442	Is he a genius or a fool?
26442	Is his mother at work now that she is nearly blind?
26442	Is not that right, brother?"
26442	It cut the little shaver to the quick, did n''t it?
26442	It is not the answer to the question, What are you worth?
26442	It may be that I will be blessed in my children-- who knows?
26442	Jenny, what did father say when he read the piece by Silence Dogood in the Courant?"
26442	Josiah?"
26442	Let us give you some of them:"Who has deceived thee so oft as thyself?"
26442	Maybe it will be some day, who knows?
26442	Might not some very old person know the place where the ship was wrecked?
26442	None of the great men of old were printers, were they?
