32830And our present consideration is, What, on that resurrection, is the next thing which shall befall them?
32830And that this is so held up, who that knows his Bible can for a moment doubt?
32830And why?
32830Are we likely to know much of it?
32830Besides, how then would the Lord''s promise to the thief be fulfilled?
32830But to the believer, who has died in the Lord, what is the judgment?
32830But to what end?
32830For who knows whither the departed spirit has betaken itself when it has left us here?
32830How can it be true that while others shall rise to a resurrection of judgment, he shall rise to a resurrection of life?
32830How could one endowed with them ever remain idle?
32830Now ask yourselves, what does the child at its play know of the employments of the man?
32830Now what is our present state with reference to Him whom all Christians love?

704Tell me, then,he cried, brokenly,"since my life has been so little worth, how came I here at all?"

704But are you sure he has always been so inerrant?"
704But is n''t it a mistake not to allow us to make our own mistakes, to learn for ourselves, to live our own lives?

38312You remember Tom Rollins, the Junior who was so good to me when I entered college?"
38312he cried,"is that you?"
30540And I, then, as the most unworthy part of it?
30540And that?
30540And the child?
30540Are you a stranger in the country-- but newly come to us?
30540But have you no sick here?

30540Helen? 30540 How does it happen that Mrs. Thorne-- You say this message was dated at midnight?"
30540How is it she did n''t_ know_ by that time? 30540 Is it a kind of game?"

30540Jason,he said, after an instant''s pause,"pick up the''Herald,''will you?
30540Mrs. Decker dead? 30540 Oh,"I said indifferently,"is that all?"
30540Oh,she said joyously,"have you seen Him_ yet_?"
30540Papa, who is worship?
30540Tell me,I said, turning toward him who had brought me thither,"how shall I make compensation for my entertainment?
30540Was n''t he a quick- tempered man?
30540Was she conscious to the end?
30540Was there by chance nothing more?
30540What did you say? 30540 What do you desire for him?"
30540What had you?
30540What is Christ, papa? 30540 What is that dog about?"
30540What were your possessions in the life yonder?

30540When did this dispatch come, Jason?
30540Where are you hurt?
30540Where''s the baby, Helen?

3054025 What Can She Do?

30540A chance to endow him with every social opportunity, every educational privilege, such as it is a father''s pride to enrich his child wherewith?
30540A father''s personal position?
30540Alas, what art had I, in that high science so far above me, that my earth- bound gaze had never reached unto it?
30540All those forms of personality which go with intellectual position and the use of it?
30540Alone in all that blessedness, was I bereft?
30540And how should I be understood if I told the story?

30540How, now, was I to compass this national kind of happiness for my son?
30540I answered,"how can I teach you that which I myself know not?"
30540I caught myself thinking this preposterous thing: Suppose it were all over?
30540I cried, as she made a signal of farewell,"are you not going to help me-- is nobody going to help me take care of this child?"
30540I cried,"_ you_ know me, do n''t you?
30540I cried,"what is the meaning of this?
30540I have been thinking that possibly you may be able-- and willing-- to approach her for me?"
30540I might be a spiritual outcast, but what was to become of Boy?
30540I must say to her-- I must tell her-- Why, who in all the world but me could do_ anything_ for Helen now?
30540I pleaded,"no hospitals or places of need?
30540I was silenced by being gently asked: What could I do?
30540I wonder if we have any scale of measurement for what women suffer?"
30540If I cherished her as my own soul, what could I give her back, who had given herself to me?
30540If in the body, where was the common element between that attenuated invalid and my robust organization?
30540If in the soul, between the suffering saint and the joyous man of the world, where again was our common moral protoplasm?
30540If she tripped upstairs?
30540If the child''s crib took fire and she put it out, and herself received one of those deadly shocks from burns not in themselves mortal?
30540If the last, what species of vigour?
30540In a world of souls, what was mine-- miserable, ignorant, half- developed, wholly unfit-- what was mine to do with his?
30540In that spot, in that way, of all others, why was I withheld?
30540Is it people''s Mother?
30540Is n''t that dinner ready?
30540Is there no use for it all, in this state of being which I have come to?"
30540Is there_ no one_ in this place who hears?
30540It said:"_ Have you seen my husband, to- night?_"and it was signed,"_ Helen Thorne._"Oh, poor Helen!...
30540It seems to me impossible in any set of conditions that memory could blot that experience from my being; but of that what know I?
30540Loving influence?
30540Might not a woman_ love_ herself into continued existence who felt for any creature what she did for that child?
30540Oh, how can they?"
30540Or am I struck dumb?
30540Or sees me,_ either_?"
30540Or selection?
30540Or shall I get a waggon, and a farm- hand?
30540Or the surgeon who had created and sustained it?
30540Passed beyond the old system of suffering, why should he?
30540Power to push the little fellow to the front?
30540Public power?
30540Quail?
30540Rather, I might say, when does the blue become the violet, within the prism?
30540Sacrifice for a surgical doctrine?
30540So much of self and gain?
30540So wholly did she rule my soul-- how could I stoop to care the more for hers, because she was beyond my reach?
30540So?--Will you try it?
30540Suppose Helen thought that my unaccountable absence had something to do with that scene between us?
30540Suppose my wife were to die?
30540Suppose some accident befell her?
30540Suppose somebody had got the news to her that the horse had been seen dashing free of the buggy, or had returned alone to the stable, panting and cut?
30540Suppose we never saw each other again?
30540Sympathy with the wretched?
30540Tell me, Doctor, what do you think of this place?
30540The love of healing?
30540The relief of suffering?
30540The sum of the false so large?
30540The''Herald''says-- Where is that paper?"
30540Thought?
30540To what had all those old attainments come?
30540To- night?
30540Vigour?
30540Was it possible that I could stand by and see Charley_ die_?
30540Was it thus, I said, or so?
30540Was the balance of motives so disproportionate after all?
30540Was the item of the true so small?
30540Was there so little love of wife and child?
30540Were it for me to expect to be successful in that solemn effort which is as old as time, and as hopeless as the eyes of mourners?
30540Were these the motives, all the motives, the_ whole_ motives, of him who had in my name ministered in that place so long?
30540What does this mean?"
30540What fine, unclassified senses had the highly- organized animal by which he should become aware of me?
30540What has become of your wisdom and your power?
30540What is it for?"
30540What is the custom of the country?
30540What is the sum of wealth represented within these walls to- day?
30540What is to be said?
30540What knew I of the system of things on which a blow upon the head had ushered me all unready, reluctant, and uninstructed as I was?
30540What shall I call that difference with which the man''s love differs when he has won the woman?
30540What shall I say?
30540What she, for instance, by that time was suffering, oh, who in the wide world else could guess or dream?
30540What then?
30540What was death?
30540What was that in the individual which gave it strength to stay?
30540What was the life- force in this new condition of things?
30540What went I out, with the heavenly, happy people, for to see?
30540What word is there to say?
30540What worse punishment were there, verily, than the consciousness of having done the sort of deed that I had?
30540What would Helen say?
30540What would Helen think by this time?
30540What wouldst Thou with me?
30540What young creature ever loved like that?
30540What_ made_ us go on living?
30540When does the dawn become the day upon the summer sky?
30540When does the high tide begin to turn beneath the August moon?
30540Whence came that awful order?
30540Whence came the reproductive power which was able to carry on the species under such terrible antagonism as the fact of death?
30540Where did the alloy come in?
30540Where did the motive deteriorate?
30540Where gainest Thou Thy force upon me?
30540Where has it all gone to, Doctor?
30540Where is that advertisement of Grope County Iowa Mortgage?
30540Where was the central cell?
30540Where was the highly organized one of all my patients, who had baffled death for love of me?
30540Who and what are you, that make of death a bitterer thing than life can guess?
30540Who but me could understand?
30540Who could be?
30540Who ever thought anything could happen to the_ Doctor_?
30540Who had the clairvoyance or clairaudience, or the wonderful tip in the scale of health and disease, which causes such phenomena?
30540Who knew better than he what would be the professional significance of the circumstance that Dr. Thorne was seen intoxicated down town at midnight?
30540Who notices when the useful thing gets too full?
30540Who of us has not felt at the Play, the strong allegorical power in the coming of the first actress before the house?
30540Whom, for very rapture, did they melt to welcome?
30540Why, Doctor, are_ you_?"
30540Why, then, should he not the better love?
30540You''re in my way-- don''t you see?
30540do n''t you_ see_ me, Brake?"
30540exclaimed the broker sharply,"what is this?
30540said a low, sweet voice,"Doctor?"
39212And are you glad to see me, Gertie?
39212And do you care for me still?
39212And if you touched and handled them?
39212And see you?
39212And the same silk?
39212And what can I do, May?
39212And what is your name?
39212And will it?
39212And your famous knots?
39212Anything wrong?
39212Are there any letters from China?
39212Are those your daughters, sir?
39212Are you Kate''s friend?
39212Are you any relation to Major M----?
39212Are you coming to see us to- morrow?
39212Are you my little Gertie, darling?
39212Are you_ quite sure_,I asked,"that it is the same paper in which you wrapt it?"
39212But how about the arterial silk?
39212But how can I marry again unless he dies?
39212But if you heard them speak?
39212But where are your sisters?
39212But where is''Yonnie''?
39212But why should it make her ill?
39212But why? 39212 But your crest and seal?"
39212But_ when_ do you see me?
39212But_ when_?
39212Ca n''t you tell us who you are?
39212Can not you see?
39212Can you tell me why that gentleman left so suddenly?
39212Did I weep?
39212Did n''t I say it was in the church at----?
39212Did you know the spirit?
39212Do n''t you remember I cut it off just before I left this world?
39212Do you expect to see any friends to- night?
39212Do you know who_ I_ am?
39212Do you mean to tell me you are frightened of your medium? 39212 Florence, my darling,"I said,"is this_ really_ you?"
39212Good gracious,they said,"do n''t you know that that hotel was built on the site of the old barracks?
39212Had she any peculiarity about her feet?
39212Has not the coffin left my house?
39212Has not the death you spoke of taken place_ now_?
39212Have you come for me, my friend?
39212Have you ever seen anybody whom you recognized?
39212Have you ever seen your grave?
39212Have you never lost a relation of her age?
39212How can I tell this is_ your_ hand?
39212How could she come to me then?
39212How did you meet him?
39212How do you account for it?
39212How long will it take you to do so?
39212How was it your body was never found?
39212Is it my husband''s?
39212Is it you, Emily?
39212Is there anyone here who recognizes the name of''Bluebell''?
39212Is_ this_ the death you prophesied?
39212It is, indeed,said the man;"and it is in the church at----?"
39212It seems too marvellous to be true; but how_ can_ I disbelieve it, when_ here she is_?
39212Jones,she falters,"are you happy?"
39212Katieenjoyed my surprise, and asked me,"Ai n''t I prettier than Florrie now?"
39212May I take you in my arms?
39212My darling child,I said, as I embraced her,"why did you ask for''Bluebell''?"
39212Nor your seal been tampered with?
39212Of what was my chasuble made?
39212Pourquoi, Valerie?
39212QUI BONO?
39212Sha n''t I come soon, darling?
39212Stop a minute,I said,"this person whom you have alluded to so often-- have I ever met him?"
39212Surely you are not suffering still?
39212Then by what means,I argued,"do you know that I am Florence Marryat?
39212Then will you open the packet?
39212To which medium shall I go?
39212Was there foul play?
39212What a mother?
39212What are_ graves_ to us? 39212 What did you do to me last night?"
39212What do you make of it?
39212What do you wish me to do for you?
39212What is the matter with me, Sir John?
39212What is the matter, dear?
39212What is the matter?
39212What is your own name?
39212What is your real name?
39212What necktie?
39212What shall I call you, then?
39212What was his name?
39212What was his object in doing so?
39212What where you doing there?
39212What''s a dog?
39212What''s the matter, Peter?
39212When did he murder you?
39212Where am I to send?
39212Where did you meet him?
39212Where is my chasuble?
39212Where is your dress, Katie?
39212Whereabouts?
39212Who are you?
39212Who are you?
39212Who has told you of it?
39212Who is he, Dewdrop?
39212Who is it for?
39212Who_ can_ it be?
39212Whom have you seen?
39212Whom will you bring?
39212Why do you wish to know?
39212Will you come to me, darling?
39212Will you explain your meaning to me?
39212Will you fetch some one for us, Charlie?
39212Yes, I do recognize you, my dear child,I replied;"but what makes you come to me?"
39212You do n''t want to come back then, Ted?
39212You know her name, do n''t you?
39212Your knots have not been untied?
39212_ Forgive!_I repeated,"What have I to forgive?"
39212_ Not alive!_she echoed;"did n''t God make it?"
39212_ You do n''t recognize him?_she repeated in an incredulous tone,"then you must be very dull.
39212( At this juncture I asked,"How can I prevent it?")
39212("Did the trouble I had before your birth affect your spirit, Florence?")
39212("Do you ever see your father?")
39212("Do you know your sisters, Eva and Ethel?")
39212("What can I do to bring you nearer to me?")
39212Abrow?"
39212And did it ever strike you that there is something else recorded in the Bible?
39212And if Mr. Haxby has played a trick on me, as you suppose, why did you not discover the slit when you examined the box, before opening?"
39212And what_ good_ does it do?
39212And which, amongst the philosophers I have alluded to, could suggest a simpler mode of communication?
39212Are you quite happy?"
39212At this remark I laughed; and Mr. Abrow said,"Is she come for you, madam?
39212But do we not often ask the same question with respect to those still existent here below?
39212But how did I know of the occurrence the_ night before_ it took place?
39212But shall I gain it?"
39212But what has Religion given us instead?
39212But why afraid of an impossibility?
39212Ca n''t you stop them?"
39212Did you ever pay Johnson the seventeen pounds twelve you received for my saddlery?"
39212Did you suppose I was going to let you waste all your power with them, when I knew I was going home with you and Mrs. Ross- Church?
39212Do n''t you wish you had my garden?
39212Do you answer to the description?"
39212Do you know who I am?"
39212Do you see that it is Florrie lying there?"
39212Do you suppose that we poor mortals have been thus abandoned?
39212Do you think I have never seen you since that time, nor heard anything about you?
39212Do you think it is possible he may not have sailed after all?"
39212Does the cap fit?"
39212Fitzgerald?"
39212For whom do you come?"
39212Have they been ordered back?
39212Have they perished?
39212Have you been playing any of your tricks upon me?"
39212Have you quite forgotten?"
39212He kept on reiterating,"Who brought me here?
39212He replied,"Forgotten little Flo?
39212He says,''Is Mrs. Ross- Church at home?''
39212He seemed quite delighted to be able to manifest so indisputably like himself, and remarked more than once,"I''m not much like a girl now, am I, Ma?"
39212Her incessant questions of"What''s a father?"
39212How was that?"
39212How_ dared_ you send for me?"
39212I am sure when she let it fall again there must have been thirty or forty holes, and"Katie"said,"Is n''t that a nice cullender?"
39212I asked her,"Are you cold?"
39212I asked her,"When will my husband die?"
39212I asked the influence,"Who are you?"
39212I asked,"Are you_ quite_ sure that the packet could not be undone without your detecting it?"
39212I asked,"By what name shall we pray for him?"
39212I asked,"Is it my own coffin?"
39212I asked,"Who are you?"
39212I asked,"and for whom do you come?"
39212I exclaimed,"have you come back to see me at last?"
39212I exclaimed,"is anything wrong with her?"
39212I exclaimed,"where is your beard?"
39212I had never set eyes on him till that moment; but I said at once to Mr. Grossmith,"Do you see that officer in the undress uniform?
39212I said,"What''s the good of my coming here?
39212I said,"_ Who is this?_"and she whispered,"_ Florence_,"and laid her head down on my shoulder, and kissed my neck.
39212I said,"after all these years?"
39212I said,"why did you come to me last night in a green riding habit?"
39212I said;"ca n''t you speak to me to- night?"
39212I suppose you are a Catholic?"
39212I whispered,"Who is this?"
39212If I had not been convinced before, how could I have helped being convinced then?
39212If her story was untrue,_ who_ had so minutely informed her of a circumstance which it was to the interest of all concerned to keep to themselves?
39212In"Young Mr. Ainslie''s Courtship"he has written a story which is charming, witty?
39212Is it to be wondered at?
39212Is that the case?"
39212Is that the certificate you want?"
39212Is this logical?
39212Is this_ your_ room?
39212Is_ this_ belief in the existence of a tender Father and a blessed home waiting to receive them on the other side?
39212Johnny Cope, is it you?"
39212Lean,"she said, hurriedly, noting my surprise,"do n''t you know me?
39212May I take it away with me?"
39212Mr. Stacke said to me,"Who is this?"
39212Mrs. Holmes said to me,"Can not you remember_ anyone_ of that age connected with you in the spirit world?
39212Necromancy is a terrible word, is it not?
39212No cousin, nor niece, nor sister, nor the child of a friend?"
39212Presently a soft voice said,"Aunt Flo, do n''t you know me?"
39212Presently he turned to me and said, rather sheepishly,"Do you believe in this sort of thing?"
39212Presently she asked me,"Who are you?"
39212Prince Albert whispered to me,"Have you got anything?"
39212Several times he exclaimed with knitted brows,"What is the matter with that door?
39212Shall I ever hear from you again?"
39212She and I were quite alone in the drawing- room, and after a little while I whispered softly,"Bessie, are you asleep?"
39212She said to me,"Is that_ you_, Miss Marryat?"
39212The only question appears to be,"_ What_ is it, and_ whence_ does the power proceed?"
39212The priest started, but continued--"Who put it there?"
39212Then Mr. Eglinton said to Mr. Lee,"Have you any friend in the spirit- world from whom you would like to hear?
39212They were negroes without doubt; but how about the negro bouquet?
39212Towns prognosticated on that occasion) Page 201,"conducter"changed to"conductor"("Did you know the spirit?"
39212What are you doing?"
39212What becomes, in the face of this story, of the impassable gulf between the earthly and spiritual spheres?
39212What good do they do?
39212What good is it to have one''s faith in Immortality and another life confirmed in an age of freethought, scepticism and utter callousness?
39212What has become of them?
39212What is more wonderful than the hatching of an egg?
39212What is there to prevent your senses misleading you at the present moment?"
39212What were they born for?
39212When it came to my turn to question him, I said,"Do you see where I shall be to- morrow morning?"
39212When we asked him what he was doing, he turned to us and said,"Are you ladies Spiritualists?"
39212Wherein, then, lies the terror of the idea that these liberated spirits will have the privilege of roaming the universe as they will?
39212Who brought me here?"
39212Who can account for such things?
39212Who can say where it dwells, or that it is not permitted to return to this world, perhaps to live in it altogether?
39212Who does not remember the picture of the afflicted widow, for whom the medium has just called up the departed Jones?
39212Who has fixed the abode of the spirit after death?
39212Why ca n''t I speak at other places?
39212Why do you never write to me?"
39212Why has n''t Johnson received that money?"
39212Why should I be disbelieved?
39212Why should I be so?
39212Why should I?
39212Why should I?
39212Why should he expect to be more kindly welcomed by a spiritual one?
39212Why should it be?
39212Why should what was_ then_ not be_ now_, and what more harm is there to apply for their aid now than a few thousand years ago?
39212Why should you deceive him by saying so?
39212Why should you suppose that they were permitted on the earth then and not permitted now?
39212Why should you trust your senses in one case more than in the other?
39212Why were they ever permitted to come?
39212Why?
39212Will he die?"
39212Will you be my wife?''
39212Will you forgive too?"
39212Will you not come to me?"
39212Women would be told they should look after their own interests in the one case-- so why not in the other?
39212You are not afraid of me, are you?"
39212You''ll come here again, wo n''t you?"
39212_ What is it?_"There, my friends, I confess you stagger me!
39212_ What_ was it that had made this old lady foresee what no one else had seen?
39212_ whom_ have you there?
39212and I replied,"Yes; did n''t you send for me?"
39212and she said,"Would n''t you be cold if you had nothing but this white thing on?"
39212and the answer came back,"Do n''t you know me?
39212do n''t you know me?"
39212does it seem strange to you to hear your''baby''say things as if she knew them?
39212is it really you?
39212is n''t it lovely?
39212is this really you?"
39212mamma, why did you go away?--why did you go away?"
39212may I try if your hair is a wig?"
39212she exclaimed,"I said I would come with you and look after you-- didn''t I?"
39212to where?--to heaven?
39212what did Captain Gordon die of?"
39212what did you do that for?
39212what do you see?"
1908211Is not He who created man able to quicken the dead?
1908212The scoffers say,''Shall we be raised to life, and our forefathers too, after we have become dust and bones?
1908214What does Abraham to those circumcised who have sinned too much?
1908222 Does it not seem perfectly plain that John''s doctrine of the Christ is at bottom identical with Philo''s doctrine of the Logos? 19082 32 And again he writes,"If souls survive, how has ethereal space made room for them all from eternity?
1908234 Was Jesusfrom above,"while wicked men were"from beneath"?
190827 Origen also and who, after the apostles themselves, knew their thoughts and their use of language better than he? 19082 All things remain as they were: where is the promise of his appearing?"
19082But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? 19082 Can you cast a pair for me?"
19082Else why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
19082For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?
19082Hath the news of the overwhelming day of judgment reached thee? 19082 If souls be substances corporeal, Be they as big just as the body is?
19082In this tabernacle we groan, being burdened,and,"Who shall deliver me from this body of death?"
19082Is the law against the promises of God? 19082 Jesus said not unto him,''He shall not die;''but,''If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?''"
19082Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost?
19082O Charidas, what are the things below? 19082 O eternity, what art thou?
19082So, thou hast immortality in mind? 19082 That I can,"says the man:"will you have them large or small?"
19082Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall be those things thou hast gathered?
19082What aileth them, that they believe not the resurrection? 19082 What and if ye shall see the Son of Man ascend up where he was before?"
19082What if some did not believe? 19082 When bodies are raised, will each soul spontaneously know its own and enter it?
19082Wherefore, if ye be dead with Christ, why are ye subject to worldly ordinances? 19082 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ?"
19082Why is God here? 19082 Why,"complainingly sighed the afflicted patriarch,"why died I not at my birth?
19082Will all have one size and one sex?
19082Will all rise of the same age?
19082Will each one''s hairs and nails all be restored to him in the resurrection?
