13934 | Miss Freer repeatedly asked herself the question,"How did this come into my head?" |
13934 | Was not this mere tricking action on the observer''s eye and ear? |
13934 | Was the gang larger, or were the assailants operators who had been afraid of the cold before? |
13934 | Why should not a nun''s apparition be transferred as was Father H.''s( to Miss Langton)? |
17190 | Art thou any thing? |
17190 | Art thou some god, some angel, or some devil, That mak''st my blood cold, and my hair to stare? |
17190 | Can these possibly be the prototypes of the Dances of Death so popular in the Middle Ages? |
17190 | He adds that the people of Marathon worship the men who fell in the battle as heroes; and who could be more worthy of such honour than they? |
17190 | Well; then I shall see thee again? |
17190 | Why com''st thou? |
17190 | who comes here? |
14522 | And you will tell our children some day, wo n''t you? |
14522 | Have you ever read the old prophecy on the library window? |
14522 | My dear Hiram,cried Mrs. Otis,"what can we do with a woman who faints?" |
14522 | Poor, poor Ghost,she murmured;"have you no place where you can sleep?" |
14522 | Starve you to death? 14522 Well, really,"said the Ghost, rather meekly,"what was I to do? |
14522 | I never told on you, though I was very much annoyed, and it was most ridiculous, the whole thing; for who ever heard of emerald- green blood?" |
14522 | Oh, Mr. Ghost-- I mean Sir Simon, are you hungry? |
14522 | Why, there was a buck I had shot in Hogley Woods, a magnificent pricket, and do you know how she had it sent to table? |
14522 | Would you like it?" |
14522 | You wo n''t send me back, will you? |
14522 | [ Illustration:"''POOR, POOR GHOST,''SHE MURMURED;''HAVE YOU NO PLACE WHERE YOU CAN SLEEP?''"] |
14522 | child, where have you been?" |
32841 | And do you think every Man has a Guardian Angel? |
32841 | And how long has he been with me? |
32841 | And what do you think is his Bussiness? |
32841 | Are you sure of that, Coul? |
32841 | But Coul, tell me in earnest, if there be a Devil that attends my Family, tho''invisible to us all? |
32841 | But might not you go, to the Mines of Mexico, where these little Sums would never be missed? |
32841 | C. Did I not say that whatever the Number be, yet the Spirits departed were employed in the same Bussiness? |
32841 | Does ever the like happen among good Angels? |
32841 | He asked me, if I had considered the matter he had recommended? |
32841 | How could I vindicate my Self, how should I prove, that ever you had spoken with me? |
32841 | I enquired-- j{st},"If he was the Laird of Coul, what brought him hither?" |
32841 | I know, said he, that this is a mere Evasion: but tell me, if your Neighbour, the Laird of Thurston will do it? |
32841 | Is then, Sir, this one of the Questions you_ will not_ answer? |
32841 | May I then ask you, if you be in a State of Happiness or not? |
32841 | O. I do n''t doubt of it, but what is that to my Question, concerning which I am sollicitous? |
32841 | O. Pray, Coul, who informed you that I talked at that Rate? |
32841 | Or, since your wife has sufficient Fund and more, why ca n''t you empty her Purse in your Hat invisibly to make the People amends? |
32841 | Well then, what sort of a Body is it that you appear in, and what sort of a Horse is it that you ride on, that appears so full of mettle? |
32841 | What hinders them, said I, Coul? |
32841 | What then are your Demands upon me? |
32841 | and"What was his Business with me?" |
16538 | ''Had she been in Scotland?'' 16538 Had we not room enough without?" |
16538 | What sort of voices? |
16538 | ''Why did she leave?'' |
16538 | 4? |
16538 | An old woman in the village asked Miss Moore to- day with interest,"Hoo''ll ye be liking B----?" |
16538 | Another thing; is it possible for any one to keep up a joke like that for three months? |
16538 | At breakfast I asked,''Has anybody ever heard this kind of noise?'' |
16538 | He at once said,"Yes, and might he go and see if any one were about?" |
16538 | He has had a conversation with the butler, whom he had been instrumental in engaging for us, which began by his asking how he liked his situation? |
16538 | I asked her had she seen anything? |
16538 | I jumped out of bed quickly, and opened my door, and called out in a loud voice,''Who is there?'' |
16538 | I said,"Do you mean she had no legs?" |
16538 | I suggested"The keeper?" |
16538 | If it is desirable, could we meet sometime,... and discuss what is to be said? |
16538 | If this is_ not_ desirable on May 28th, should you have second- sight material ready then? |
16538 | Just before dinner, Miss Freer, who was sitting between the writing- table and fireplace, suddenly called out,''What is Spooks running after?'' |
16538 | Miss Langton also observed this, and said,"What is Spooks after?" |
16538 | On this occasion, however, in reply to the question,"How old was Ishbel when she died?" |
16538 | Robinson?'' |
16538 | Soon after Miss Langton came into the drawing- room, and I said,''Well, you_ have_ been busy; I suppose Miss Freer has been dictating to you?'' |
16538 | Then Mr. MacP---- said to Mr. C----,"Did you see anything?" |
16538 | Were there none where I was? |
16538 | When we regained the avenue( in silence) Miss Moore asked Miss Langton,"What did you see?" |
16538 | Wherever the noise may have been produced, the question still remains,''What produced it?'' |
16538 | Why did I not hear the noises on the ninth night? |
16538 | | Mr."Etienne"|[?] |
40823 | In the morning my nephew said,''Well, Aunt, I hope you were comfortable and had a good night?'' 40823 What are you talking about?" |
40823 | Why ca n''t you? |
40823 | Again, and again, sceptics, with would- be smartness, have said to me,"Where do ghosts get their clothes? |
40823 | Ande here"into"illusionary? |
40823 | But what about the apparition? |
40823 | Can I do anything for you?" |
40823 | Can it be that it is, after all, the little learning that makes the man the fool? |
40823 | Can it be that these dreams are reminiscences of a former existence, of scenes with which I was once familiar? |
40823 | Could it have been a case of suggestion?" |
40823 | Dare I remain down there and wait for the phenomena? |
40823 | Did you see it?" |
40823 | I wonder if the sensations you experienced were in any way due to her?''" |
40823 | Is such a thing possible?" |
40823 | My curiosity, however, was far greater than my fear, and I kept asking myself what the Thing was, and why it was there? |
40823 | Now, was this a case of unconscious projection, or merely of suggestion? |
40823 | Or have they been vividly portrayed to me by an Elemental? |
40823 | Shall I tell you what I can see in this room?'' |
40823 | The question now arises-- to what cause could the vision be attributed? |
40823 | There are surely no tailoring establishments in the psychic world?" |
40823 | This being so, why, then, should not all such demonstrations, whether manifesting themselves individually or collectively, be objective? |
40823 | Unfortunately, I did not count the strokes; but what do you think it means?" |
40823 | Whatever makes you think of him?" |
40823 | You remember H. at school, do n''t you? |
6027 | ''Where?'' 6027 ''Why?'' |
6027 | Come here with your basket; what you staying for? |
6027 | Does she think the house is to let because it''s shut? |
6027 | Dreamed about her? 6027 Hullo,"said Jem;"it''s done you up, ai n''t it?" |
6027 | I suppose you are the caretaker? |
6027 | My little girl--she began,"her name is Judith--""Where is she?" |
6027 | That--? |
6027 | Wake up, Judy; have you gone off in a dream? 6027 What are you saying? |
6027 | What do you think she says to me to- night after I put her to bed? |
6027 | What is it? |
6027 | What is she like? |
6027 | What''ve you got there, Judy? |
6027 | Where''d you get''em from? 6027 Who''s been talkin''to her?" |
6027 | Who''s she? |
6027 | Who-- who-- was it? |
6027 | Why did they close it? |
6027 | Wo n''t you come up- stairs, ma''am? |
6027 | Would n''t you like to set in your own room perhaps? |
6027 | You do n''t mind, do you? |
6027 | Easy way to go, was n''t it?" |
6027 | How COULD it be? |
6027 | Looks like she''d had a day in the country, do n''t she, Jem?" |
6027 | What was it that she wanted-- that which was in the closed room? |
6027 | What was you lookin''at?" |
6027 | Where had the people gone and why had they left it all at once as if they were afraid? |
6027 | Why had it been done? |
6027 | Why had they locked the door? |
6027 | You could n''t get in?" |
6027 | You do n''t mind if I go play with her, do you? |
6027 | You do n''t mind, do you?" |
6027 | You do n''t mind?'' |
6027 | You''re pretty well, ai n''t you, Judy?" |
6027 | she began-- and ended:"She is DEAD?" |
16975 | Ask if it can hear us doctor? |
16975 | Can you, whatever you are, hear what we say? |
16975 | Great Heavens,exclaimed Olive,"What shall we do with her; she is crazy?" |
16975 | How many persons are in the room? 16975 I wonder what that awful noise was?" |
16975 | If you can see and hear, tell us how many persons are in this room? |
16975 | Jane, this is September the fourth, ai nt it? |
16975 | What in the name of the sun ails you to- day, Esther? |
16975 | Why what in the name of thunder ails you Esther? |
16975 | After looking at Esther and Olive a moment, she said,"What were you two putting your heads together about when I came in? |
16975 | All ate in silence for some minutes, when Jane inquires if the cow was milked again last night? |
16975 | Are you sure nothing can be done to relieve her?" |
16975 | But the writing on the wall-- what did it mean, and how came it there? |
16975 | But why speculate on so great a mystery? |
16975 | Do n''t you all see him? |
16975 | Do you think there is any truth in dreams? |
16975 | Has the house burned to the ground or has the girl burst all to pieces?" |
16975 | He looked at Dan a moment in amazement, and then exclaimed in an inquiring tone:"What''s the matter, Teed? |
16975 | Now come, tell me all about it; is it a great secret? |
16975 | Oh, what will become of me?" |
16975 | Q.--"Are you in heaven?" |
16975 | Q.--"Are you in hell?" |
16975 | Q.--"Have you seen God?" |
16975 | Q.--"Have you seen the devil?" |
16975 | The first question the author asked was:"Have you all lived on the earth?" |
16975 | What do you think about it Olive? |
16975 | What was to be done? |
16975 | What was to be done? |
16975 | What was to be done? |
16975 | Why, Jane, what has brought you home at this time of day? |
16975 | are you going without eating some of the bread pudding I went to the trouble of making because I thought you would like it?" |
16975 | exclaimed Olive,"the house has been struck by lightning and I know my poor boys are killed?" |
16975 | half- past two already? |
16975 | what shall we do,"cried Esther,"what shall we do?" |
36991 | An author man? |
36991 | Are your wits leaving you, Jerusalem? |
36991 | Can this Easter time never be kept without an infernal bell bombilation? 36991 Could that skulking Juma have helped her? |
36991 | Do you consent to the marriage,she whispered, bending over Jonathan,"or shall we come to- morrow night?" |
36991 | Have you ever heard of''The School for Scandal,''Miss Knickerbocker? |
36991 | Have you go- carts''neath your feet? |
36991 | I know what you are going to ask-- why did I make such a wide frill about the bottle''s neck? 36991 Shall we extend our hands to her, or just curtesy?" |
36991 | They kissed in the shrubbery-- My niece in love? |
36991 | What does he want here? |
36991 | Why not, miss? |
36991 | Why not? |
36991 | Will he know that I have changed my name? |
36991 | Will she come? |
36991 | Would you allow your niece to ruin her life by marrying a man who gains his livelihood playing a musical instrument? 36991 You will follow her?" |
36991 | You''ll not permit them to take you away from me? 36991 You?" |
36991 | But in another breath,"Oh, what will her father say?" |
36991 | Did Juma keep his promise and give her the arbutus? |
36991 | Did he really perfect their symmetry with cotton as was said, she wondered? |
36991 | Did the chair of Marie du Buc de Marcinelle, the Elizabethtown beauty, pause before the hair- dresser''s sign? |
36991 | Had she been tampering with her five- per- cents for Peruvian investments? |
36991 | Is it true that the town has seen you keeping trysts with him at the Battery? |
36991 | More unearthly visitants? |
36991 | Shall this girl who bears your blood marry yon youth?" |
36991 | She began to tremble-- where had she seen it? |
36991 | Think you they forgot they were born to superior circumstances and sullied their reputations?" |
36991 | Think you they stepped down from their high places for silly fancies? |
36991 | Was Toussaint calling him? |
36991 | Was it the old plaint-- Jerusalem''s frivolity? |
36991 | Were they of him? |
36991 | What cared the horn of plenty on the door for the profits of the Fleet Sally? |
36991 | What could she, frail and old, gain by wrestling with the times? |
36991 | What would Aunt Jane have thought?" |
36991 | What would poor Roberta Johnstone say if she were here? |
36991 | When that malignant crone, Gossip, started on her round, what would happen? |
36991 | Where is your boasted allegiance to those of your family who have gone before you?" |
36991 | Why did the woman gaze at him so mournfully? |
36991 | Why should she care if the wealthy Mrs. Snograss had come to York with her Trenton innovations? |
36991 | You will be mine forever and ever?" |
45362 | And how did you get in? |
45362 | Are you? |
45362 | D''ye say so? 45362 Had he any clothes on? |
45362 | Pretty well, thank ye,says he,"but pray, how do you know my name?" |
45362 | What''s that? |
45362 | Wo n''t ye? 45362 ''What ails thee, sepulchre? 45362 --Charles, what would thou do with me?'' 45362 A voice was then heard in the gloom asking in a strange intonation,What is wanted?" |
45362 | An amusing anecdote illustrative of this belief was related by the daughter of''the celebrated Mrs. S.''[ Siddons?] |
45362 | And I replied,''Why?'' |
45362 | And I said,''Father, shall I pray for you?'' |
45362 | Doth the earth press, or the black stone weigh on thee heavily?'' |
45362 | Elizabeth of Hungary, being on the point of expiring, said to those around him,"Do you see those doves more white than snow?" |
45362 | He also asks,"Art thou satisfied?" |
45362 | Mr. and Mrs. S---- coming in suddenly one day, heard her cry out,''Are you there again? |
45362 | Says the ghost,"Well, Tommy, how are ye?" |
45362 | The last point the old man quoted as at once settling the question,''How could I be mistaken? |
45362 | The late Charles Kingsley, in his''Yeast,''asks,''Who are the knockers?'' |
45362 | Then I said,''Where are all our fathers who did like to him?'' |
45362 | What sound is that comes from afar? |
45362 | Whence comes it? |
45362 | Who comes here? |
45362 | Who knoweth whether God will permit the persons, who have thus confederated, to appear in the world again after their death? |
45362 | Why thus so deeply groan and sigh? |
45362 | and if so, what were they like?" |
45362 | are ye sleeping, Margaret?'' |
45362 | he says,''Or are ye waking presentlie? |
45362 | what is that?" |
45362 | who comes here?'' |
61158 | Accompanied by a glockenspiel? |
61158 | All this time I was being so big- hearted, did I also say I was going to have to sell the house for non- payment of taxes? |
61158 | And who are_ you_, and what are_ you_ doing here? |
61158 | As a matter of curiosity,Jerry addressed his rival,"what makes you so sure Heather is going to marry you?" |
61158 | Gertrude? |
61158 | How much? |
61158 | I says,''Where do you live?'' 61158 If you ca n''t help yourself, I do n''t see how you''re going to be much help to me, but what''ve I got to lose?" |
61158 | If you do n''t believe it, why do n''t you come serenadin''with us, you and Miss Heather? |
61158 | Is that what it is? |
61158 | Just to satisfy my curiosity,Jerry pleaded,"where does the plaid skirt come in?" |
61158 | Oh no? |
61158 | See? |
61158 | The MacGreggor tartan? 61158 The pictures-- where are they now?" |
61158 | Were you laughing at me? |
61158 | What about Lovers Leaps? |
61158 | What about the glockenspiel? |
61158 | What did you say her name was? |
61158 | What''s that? |
61158 | Why ca n''t I get it now? |
61158 | You? 61158 _ Thief!_""Thief?" |
61158 | A disembodied voice said,"Now about that Scotch? |
61158 | A zero on the end?" |
61158 | And what would the Board of Directors think of a bank president''s wife who wrote claptrap about werewolves and spare- rib glockenspiels?" |
61158 | And where do you keep the scissors?" |
61158 | Are we to hand down to our children a community without pride of ancestry? |
61158 | Are we--?" |
61158 | But first--"he reached into a cupboard and produced Jerry''s safety razor--"do you mind if I borrow this? |
61158 | Could n''t you let me pay for the skirt?" |
61158 | Do I look like a criminal?" |
61158 | For sale?" |
61158 | Four canvases? |
61158 | Got a smoke, matey?" |
61158 | He asks what will you take within reason? |
61158 | Her handclasp carried a hint of finality that went beyond words, and Jerry said,"_ Been?_""Wesley gets back tomorrow." |
61158 | In addition, there was a sound that made Jerry''s curly hair crawl-- the baying of a wolf? |
61158 | Me? |
61158 | Meanwhile, what collector has n''t heard of J. Masterson- Junior, whose canvases are lauded for their"other world"quality? |
61158 | Now take Junior....""Junior?" |
61158 | One thousand?_ Jerry was sure of only one thing. |
61158 | Remorseless? |
61158 | Rye?" |
61158 | Wesley demanded,"Heather,"said Jerry,"will you marry me?" |
61158 | Why not throw himself into the sea? |
61158 | Why pick on me?" |
61158 | Why?" |
61158 | You remember how she scooted through the studio this afternoon with a werewolf after her?" |
61158 | Your betrothed?" |
14099 | ''Did you never hear of him?'' 14099 ''What man?'' |
14099 | So long as we leave the doors unclosed they do n''t harm us: why should we be afraid of them? |
14099 | We laughed at this and asked:''Who will be appointed to the dispensary?'' |
14099 | What exactly does it mean? |
14099 | What was about to happen? 14099 What was it?" |
14099 | What? |
14099 | Where? |
14099 | ''Is that a boat turned over?'' |
14099 | ''Why?'' |
14099 | ----?'' |
14099 | A few days later Miss B. said to E. C.:"I hear such strange noises every night-- are there any people in the adjoining part of the building?" |
14099 | All I could do was to speak; I cried out,"Who are you? |
14099 | And if so, what meaning would he put upon the word"spirits"? |
14099 | B. been down at our house that afternoon, and I casually asked her:"''Who was the man who was just behind me when I met you on Dick''s Brae?'' |
14099 | B., why have you come?" |
14099 | Can we contemptuously fling aside such a weight of evidence as unworthy of even a cursory examination? |
14099 | Coming back she met the boy pale and trembling, and on asking him why he left the room, he replied,"Who is that woman-- who is that woman?" |
14099 | Did he never hear of such- and- such a haunted house, or place?" |
14099 | For myself I can not guarantee the genuineness of a single incident in this book-- how could I, as none of them are my own personal experience? |
14099 | He does not therefore condemn these offhand; he is content to suspend judgment, is he not? |
14099 | However, we are not concerned with explanations( for who, as yet, can explain the supernatural? |
14099 | I called out in amazement,''What has happened to the chair?'' |
14099 | I said,''Who are you?'' |
14099 | I started up, and said,''Is there anything wrong?'' |
14099 | I to sleep in the tapestry chamber? |
14099 | Naturally I said,''What accident, Mary?'' |
14099 | Once again he appeared, and seemed to say to me,''Why did you do that, E----? |
14099 | She left the bedroom, and called to her daughter, who was in a lower room,"What do you want?" |
14099 | The question is, Why do they occur at all? |
14099 | The servants asked,"Corney, why did you not speak?" |
14099 | The two boys were moved to the haunted room[ which one? |
14099 | We asked, thinking that the answer was absurd, as we knew him to be alive and well:"''Are you dead?'' |
14099 | We said:"''Who are you?'' |
14099 | What do you want?" |
14099 | Where was I to get them from? |
14099 | Why can not he adopt the same attitude with respect to psychic phenomena? |
14099 | was he suffering from delusions? |
28699 | ''Doth this doctrine teach you to know God, or to be skilful in the heavens?'' 28699 A dreamer?" |
28699 | And what, pray, was the message? |
28699 | Can the truthfulness of the narrative,one skeptical inquirer wrote Mr. Roff,"be substantiated outside of yourself and those immediately interested? |
28699 | Do you mean this, aunty? |
28699 | Do you remember,Dr. Stevens asked her one day,"the time that you cut your arm?" |
28699 | How long did you live after taking it? |
28699 | How long was it after you took it before you told her? |
28699 | In what? 28699 Mean it, Daniel? |
28699 | Suppose you give me a tangible proof of your presence? |
28699 | Tell us his surname? |
28699 | What flowers? |
28699 | What sign do you bring? |
28699 | What think you, Fanny? |
28699 | What, my dear, are they all dead? |
28699 | Who has sent them? |
28699 | Why have you entered this maiden''s body? |
28699 | You heard it, then? |
28699 | ***** But what shall those of us who are not Swedenborgians think of the master? |
28699 | A ghost? |
28699 | A solitary figure? |
28699 | And another asked him,"Is it a fact, or is it a story made up to see how cunning a tale one can tell?" |
28699 | Can it be shown that there was no collusion between the parties?" |
28699 | God is with you, and who shall be against you? |
28699 | In the medium?" |
28699 | Is the"spirit"present in both places at the same time-- in the shadowy apparition, and in the living, breathing, busily- occupied human entity? |
28699 | Keeping these facts before us, what do we find? |
28699 | Ma, why did you not show me my letters and things before?" |
28699 | No doubt they would like to inspect the church, perhaps to visit the school; it might even be they were desirous of meeting the pastor? |
28699 | She glared wildly around, and in an agitated tone demanded,"Where am I? |
28699 | The critic in question writes:"what evidence has the author that an apparition of the living is not a spirit? |
28699 | VIII THE MYSTERIOUS MR. HOME"So you''ve brought the devil to my house, have you?" |
28699 | We--"He stopped short at sight of the changed expression on the other''s face, and breesquely demanded,"How now, man? |
28699 | What are you gaping at?" |
28699 | What, it is necessary to ask, did the Wesleys actually hear and see in the course of the two months that they had their ghost with them? |
28699 | Who might be this evil disposed person? |
28699 | Who, in truth, save Urbain Grandier? |
28699 | Who, then, was the agent? |
28699 | Why may not the spirit of the living person have left his body and appeared to his friend? |
28699 | With a smile of delight Lurancy picked up the hat, mentioned an incident connected with it, and asked,"Have you my box of letters also?" |
28699 | Would he, then, make the quest, and would he permit Myers to pursue it by his side? |
31341 | And did you not speak to it? |
31341 | And what answer, Mr. Justice, I pray you-- what answer did it make you? |
31341 | Are you quite sure of it? |
31341 | Are you sure it was an ass, Jervais? |
31341 | Do not you remember Mr.----, whose ghost has been so much talked of? 31341 My lord,"said they,"what can human force effect against people of t''other world? |
31341 | Who are you? 31341 Will Mary this charge on her courage allow?" |
31341 | ''Do not you remember, child,''said she,''that the pigeon- house fell the very afternoon that our careless wench spilt the salt upon the table?'' |
31341 | ''Tis true, thus far I''ve come with heedless haste; No reck''ning kept, no passing objects trac''d: And can I then have reach''d that very tree? |
31341 | ''_ How came you there?_''said they. |
31341 | ''_ Nay, how the devil know I?_''answered the mad- woman. |
31341 | After dinner, the merchant, taking him into his counting- room, said,"You do not recollect me?" |
31341 | Another question was, Whether some of the then company had not a relation that had been buried in the same vault where she lay? |
31341 | But pray, Sir, how went this affair? |
31341 | Had the story stopped here, what would not superstition have made of it? |
31341 | He suddenly stopped, and demanded who she was? |
31341 | I then leaped upon the forecastle, and asked of the people who were walking there, if such a figure had passed them? |
31341 | Is it a trick, or do I dream?" |
31341 | Is it for the credit of this philosophical age, that so bungling an imposture should deceive seven clergymen into a public act of exorcism? |
31341 | One of their Honours, this night, spoke; and, in the name of God, asked what it was? |
31341 | Or is its rev''rend form assum''d by thee?" |
31341 | The tallest of these young gentlemen then asked him, in a hoarse tone of voice, what was his heaviest sin? |
31341 | There it happened that a couple of young females, coming to the vault, heard a noise below, crying,''_ Who the plague are ye? |
31341 | They asked, severally, if it was their relation? |
31341 | Upon this, one of the company asked, whether it would return again, and at what time? |
31341 | Upon which they called out, and asked,''_ Who''s there? |
31341 | What are ye?_''''_ The Devil_,''replied the traveller below. |
31341 | What d''ye make that noise for? |
31341 | What is there in a church more than in any other building? |
31341 | When he had somewhat recovered his recollection, he ejaculated,"In the name of God, do tell me who you are? |
31341 | When knocking hard at the door, the maid- servant asked who was there? |
31341 | When shall I pass the vacant hours, Rejoicing in my woodbine bowers; To smoke my pipe, and sing my song; Regardless how they pass along? |
31341 | When take my fill of pastime there, In sweet forgetfulness of care?" |
31341 | Wherefore moan, and wherefore sigh? |
31341 | Who is she, the poor maniac, whose wildly fix''d eyes Seem a heart overcharg''d to express? |
31341 | and what they wanted? |
31341 | and why it disturbed them so? |
31341 | fathers, who was he, so gay, That stood beside the chapel door? |
31341 | the hollow- sounding gale Seems to sweep in murmurs by, Sinking slowly down the vale; Wherefore, gentle lady, sigh? |
31341 | what in darkness more than light, which in themselves should have power to raise such ideas as I have now experienced? |
31341 | what is it?'' |
12621 | ''I will do so,''said Glam;''but is there any trouble at your place?'' 12621 ''What is that?'' |
12621 | ''What work are you best fitted for?'' 12621 ''Will you look after_ my_ sheep?'' |
12621 | And what do the people do? |
12621 | Anybody see anything? |
12621 | Bad moral character? |
12621 | But she could surely have got him to keep them outside, however doggy he was? |
12621 | Did a lady pass part of Sunday night in the church? |
12621 | Did they shine in the dark? 12621 Did you act on it?" |
12621 | Did you ever read Dr. Gregory''s Letters on Animal Magnetism? |
12621 | Did you know Manning, the Pakeha Maori, the fellow who wrote Old New Zealand? |
12621 | Have the natives the custom of walking through fire? |
12621 | Have you then forgotten our promise to each other, pledged in early life? 12621 How did you enjoy yourselves?" |
12621 | How on earth did you know? |
12621 | In what country? |
12621 | No, what about him? |
12621 | Tell me,I said,"Lord Tyrone, why and wherefore are you here at this time of the night?" |
12621 | The cove that invented Gregory''s Mixture? |
12621 | The duchess said,''What earl?'' 12621 Then have they any spiritualistic games, like the Burmans and Maories? |
12621 | Think of your breakfast- table,he said;"is your mental picture of it as clearly illuminated and as complete as your actual view of the scene?" |
12621 | Well, what happened next? |
12621 | What about? |
12621 | What on earth are you talking about? 12621 ''I am little able to give that,''said Skafti;''but what is the matter?'' |
12621 | ''But what was it?'' |
12621 | ''Curious is n''t it? |
12621 | ( who is it? |
12621 | ), adding in English,"Hullo, what the devil do you want here?" |
12621 | After I had finished seeing him, we went into the drawing- room, where the duchess was, and the duke said,''Oh, Cooper, how is the earl?'' |
12621 | And I said,"In the name of God, what do you demand of me now?" |
12621 | And I spoke to it saying,"In the name of God and Jesus Christ, what are you that troubles me?" |
12621 | But you say Bolter did n''t see the dogs?" |
12621 | He answered:''Do you think I am come to amuse you, you--- idiot?'' |
12621 | Hysterical Disease? |
12621 | I asked again,"What is the reason you trouble me?" |
12621 | I asked,"Was there any more guilty of that action but you?" |
12621 | I said,"How shall I get these bones?" |
12621 | I was so surprised that I called out,''Who''s here?''" |
12621 | In that time she heard the bridge clock strike two, and a while after said,''In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, what art thou?'' |
12621 | In the course of dinner he asked a propos de bottes:--"Have you heard of the ghost in Blake Street?" |
12621 | Is there a nervous malady of which the symptoms are domestic arson, and amateur leger- de- main? |
12621 | It had not yet come in; and Sir Tristram asked:''Why are you so particularly eager about letters to- day?'' |
12621 | Lilly Wynyard said that the person pointed out was a Mr. Eyre( Hay? |
12621 | Little wonder though I am thoughtful--_ Always at the time when I go to bed The stones and the clods will arise-- How could a saint get sleep there_? |
12621 | Lord Nugent--"What made you think your husband''s ribs were broken?" |
12621 | Mr. Barter, knowing that there was no place they could go to but his own house, cried"Quon hai?" |
12621 | Mrs. Claughton said:"Am I dreaming, or is it true?" |
12621 | Mrs. Claughton went back to her room, where her eldest child asked:--"''Who is the lady in white?'' |
12621 | On the night on which he last made his presence felt, he went on the roof of the house and cried,"Are you asleep, Donald Ban?" |
12621 | One can only answer:"How do you define a ghost?" |
12621 | Probably the Rontgen rays are implicated therein, eh?''" |
12621 | Questions were asked of the agencies, and to the interrogation,"Are you a devil?" |
12621 | She became annoyed, and sitting up called out,"Marie, what are you about?" |
12621 | The author has frequently been asked, both publicly and privately:"Do you believe in ghosts?" |
12621 | The next evidence is ten years after date, the statements taken down by Jack Wesley in 1726( 1720?). |
12621 | The words, however, were hardly out of her mouth when the bocan answered her with,"Did n''t you get enough of him before, you grey tether?" |
12621 | Then Mr. Towse said''in ye Name of God, what art thou then?'' |
12621 | Then who_ did_ tell? |
12621 | When I narrated the story which follows to an eminent moral philosopher, he remarked, at a given point,"Oh, the ghost_ spoke_, did she?" |
12621 | While passing, Sir J. Sherbrooke exclaimed,''God bless my soul, who''s that?'' |
12621 | Who could disobey a ghost? |
12621 | Why, we may ask, were the old ghost stories so different from the new? |
12621 | Would anybody say:"There are no seismic disturbances near Blunderstone House, for I passed a night there, and none occurred"? |
12621 | { 158b} How did Inverawe get leave to wear the Highland dress? |
12621 | { 69b} Hence arises the old question,"How are we to account for the clothes of ghosts?" |
36595 | And now,she added,"would n''t you like me to put a curse on that woman? |
36595 | But how could they get in? |
36595 | But there is a dog,said Mrs. Hudson impatiently;"ca n''t you see it standing there looking at us?" |
36595 | How do you know that? |
36595 | I do n''t see one; where do you see it? |
36595 | I inquired then,''What did she say to you when this was over?'' 36595 On one occasion he asked her,''Well, Molly, have you seen a funeral lately?'' |
36595 | What didst thou hear? 36595 What dog?" |
36595 | What was he like? |
36595 | ''What was that?'' |
36595 | And what about this man, if he had not happened to find him lying there? |
36595 | Art thou frightened?" |
36595 | Borrow said:"They( corpse- candles) foreshadow deaths, do n''t they?" |
36595 | But that evening John went to the house of''Liza the Witch, and, knocking at the door, cried,"How be''st thou,''Liza?" |
36595 | But where was the hare? |
36595 | CHAPTER IV OTHER GHOSTS"What beckoning ghost along the moonlight shade, Invites my steps, and points to yonder glade?" |
36595 | CONCLUSION CHAPTER I INTRODUCTORY"Strange, is it not? |
36595 | Could it have been possible, I wonder, that the fruitless séance was answerable for the creature''s appearance? |
36595 | For surely the room, so short a time deserted, is nevertheless peopled-- and by what? |
36595 | For what general conclusion can be satisfactory, regarding all these instances of the supernatural? |
36595 | How did he get here?" |
36595 | How was he who had acted escort to reach his own home across the bridge alone? |
36595 | Is n''t that lucky?" |
36595 | Mrs. Jones said she was, as I know, not superstitious, but was it not odd? |
36595 | Much of the old silver was taken out of its wrappings and displayed, and at length Seaton said,"But where are those queer candlesticks? |
36595 | My last inquiry was,''Did you give her anything?'' |
36595 | Now the great question was, whose burial could it be? |
36595 | Now was this merely a wonderful coincidence? |
36595 | Seaton said to the butler:"You are certain you have not had these candlesticks out lately?" |
36595 | Such a"superstition"is possibly supposed to be extinct; yet this phenomenon has been witnessed by a friend of mine( need I say of Celtic race?) |
36595 | The ostler looked puzzled and said:"Yes, sir; but what man do you mean?" |
36595 | The other replied,"Hast thou got the cattle?" |
36595 | The question-- and a puzzling one-- is, why should these things occur at all? |
36595 | Then the point was, who was going to die? |
36595 | They were going along as fast as they could, when the woman asked the man,"Dost thou see a light, Tom?" |
36595 | Was it a spirit or the Toili?" |
36595 | When Captain Seaton heard the story he looked very grave and asked,"At which door in the corridor did the lady stop?" |
36595 | Wherein lies the decided element of creepiness contained in my next story? |
36595 | Whimpers and yelps of disappointment from the hounds proclaimed that their prey had escaped, but the question was, how? |
36595 | Why have n''t I heard about her before?" |
36595 | asked the princess,"have you anointed your eyes with the ointment?" |
36512 | _ Mrs. Veal had been, subject to fits, and she asks if Mrs. Bargrave does not think she ismightily impaired by her fits?" |
36512 | And I would also take the liberty to suggest that he should ask the ghost these questions:--"Who''s your tailor?" |
36512 | And also, if a_ goose_ would be frightened if it saw a ghost? |
36512 | And further-- If the Government were applied to, would they"lend the loan"of a proper and fitting building to exhibit the various works in? |
36512 | And out of whose"atmosphere,"or"life sphere"had the spirit made this hand? |
36512 | And then if the ghost of a chimney- sweep were to appear-- and why not the spirit of a sweep as well as anybody else? |
36512 | And then was this spirit_ dressed_ in his best? |
36512 | Are, or can these things be_ spiritual_? |
36512 | Can the believers in ghosts tell us that? |
36512 | Can this be a law or regulation amongst the ghosts? |
36512 | For instance, when Marcellus says to Horatio,"Is it not like the king?" |
36512 | Had they to return to purgatory by themselves-- had the heavy white walking- stick to walk off without its owner? |
36512 | If not, where did they go to? |
36512 | If the cloth is made out of stuff"_ permeated by our wills_"-- And further, if these ghosts are honest, and pay their tailors''bills? |
36512 | Mr. Owen here asks if the mastiff was cataleptic also? |
36512 | Now it will be as well here to inquire what good has ever resulted from this belief in what is commonly understood to be a ghost? |
36512 | Now one naturally asks here, why did not this old ghost go and point the place out to his son himself? |
36512 | One day at dinner he stood up, and said to those present,"Do n''t you see I''m going?" |
36512 | Query, If a horse is not frightened at a ghost, why should dogs be frightened at the sight of them? |
36512 | Query, What did the ghost come for, and was the second husband at all jealous of his coming? |
36512 | Query: How did Mr. H. know that this hand_ was so cold_? |
36512 | Suppose it was a_ spirit hand_, the hand of a soul that once did live on earth, could it be the_ spirit_ of a_ glove_? |
36512 | Then comes my_ clothes test_ again, where did the_ hand_ get the_ glove_? |
36512 | There now, there''s a secret for you-- what do you think of that? |
36512 | Well, some people will say that some little_ comfort_ was needed after so much_ dis_comfort and suffering-- but_ why_, all this suffering? |
36512 | Yes, why should a_ dog_, especially if he is a_ spirited_ dog, do so? |
36512 | [ 6] I should like to ask a question here-- Is Home by spirits lifted, or by"atmosphere?" |
36512 | and had it put the glove on because it felt itself so cold? |
36512 | and how is it that the same spirit can appear in_ several places_ at_ the same instant_? |
36512 | and if CLOTHED, of what those CLOTHES WERE MADE? |
36512 | and what A PAIR OF TOP- BOOTS are made of? |
36512 | and whether these materials are_ spiritualized_ by any process, or whether THE CLOTHES WE WEAR ON OUR BODIES BECOME A PART AND PARCEL OF OUR SOULS? |
36512 | and"Who''s your hatter?" |
36512 | and, further, whether the mutilation of the_ body_ can in any way affect the_ spirit_--the_ soul_? |
36512 | in turning their lights in the direction from which the sounds came, and advancing carefully, they discovered-- what do you think? |
36512 | oh dear!-- Are made in any kind of mould, Or how they trick''em out of our"life sphere?" |
59872 | And it would be a splendid place to----"To what? |
59872 | Are you better, now? |
59872 | Are you going to measure it to see if there''s room for the mysterious stranger to hide in? |
59872 | But where''s your box? |
59872 | But why has father never mentioned him? |
59872 | Can you make yourselves happy till the beginning of September? |
59872 | Did he look up? |
59872 | Did mother say you might have it? |
59872 | Did n''t I tell you we all promised not to go out? |
59872 | Do n''t you know us, uncle? |
59872 | Do n''t you remember we all three promised we would not go out of the house? 59872 Do you really think it would do the boy good to be tormented by a lot of rough, strong children? |
59872 | Do you want anything before I go, darling? |
59872 | How can I tell? |
59872 | How did you see all this in the dark? |
59872 | How ever did you get up here, darling? |
59872 | How long is it since this room was used? |
59872 | How should I know? 59872 I say, Rupert, is it any good fagging away with that oar to keep her in the middle of the stream? |
59872 | Is there danger there? |
59872 | It seems a pity that father should buy me such things, does n''t it, mother? |
59872 | Mischief again? |
59872 | Now, auntie, where''s our den? |
59872 | Now, what have you to say for yourselves? |
59872 | Now, what shall we do this afternoon? |
59872 | Oh, Edric, what shall we do? 59872 So it''s going to be your den as well as theirs, is it, young man? |
59872 | That''s my own fault, is n''t it, Edric? 59872 The oak chest?" |
59872 | We know each other already, do n''t we, dear? 59872 What do you think of that, Uncle John?" |
59872 | What happened next? |
59872 | What has he been doing all these years? |
59872 | What have you been up to? |
59872 | What have you got that for? |
59872 | What of them? |
59872 | What shall I bring you from Colchester? |
59872 | What''s that? |
59872 | What''s the joke now? |
59872 | Whatever made him think of that place? |
59872 | When are they coming? |
59872 | Where''s the foot rule? |
59872 | Who are they, father? |
59872 | Who in the world are you? |
59872 | Why are you waiting? |
59872 | Why had he locked the door? |
59872 | Why should n''t he go, too? |
59872 | Why, John, how can you make savages into bears? 59872 Will Edric come, too?" |
59872 | You''ll love me still, mother, wo n''t you,I whispered, clinging to her neck;"and you wo n''t let them make me do anything I do n''t want to?" |
59872 | And is there anything else you want, to rig up their den?" |
59872 | And, pray, what do you think we shall feel like when we come into this room and see your empty sofa?" |
59872 | Are you better now? |
59872 | But what about Kathleen? |
59872 | But what do you think I found out? |
59872 | Ca n''t you really walk, Edric?" |
59872 | Could he talk English, Harold? |
59872 | Do n''t you think we might as well let her run aground?" |
59872 | Do you know he hardly ever goes out except in the long perambulator, which is pushed as gently as possible?" |
59872 | Do you mind coming to see him, mum?" |
59872 | Do you think I might go with you, just to see it before they come?" |
59872 | Edric trying to walk? |
59872 | Halloa, Kathleen, what do you want?" |
59872 | Halloa, what are you about, Rupert? |
59872 | Halloa, what''s that? |
59872 | Have you looked in the oak chest for him?" |
59872 | He must be somewhere inside? |
59872 | How are you, old man? |
59872 | How came you to think of trying that? |
59872 | How can it be our duty to turn our house into a bear- garden for the sake of a lot of young savages? |
59872 | How do you like the idea of the invasion of the savages, my boy?" |
59872 | I am glad I came, mother: does n''t the water look lovely?" |
59872 | I wonder whether---- Do you know both our servants left last year because they said the place was haunted? |
59872 | I wonder-- oh, Edric, do you remember the footmarks in the mud?" |
59872 | Is he very cross?" |
59872 | Is n''t it lovely to think that we are going to be here six whole weeks? |
59872 | It was n''t likely we should do that, was it? |
59872 | Let me see, I said"rush off,"did I not? |
59872 | Nonsense; how could a ladder be there without our seeing it?" |
59872 | Now where shall I put this flag?" |
59872 | Now, are n''t you glad to see us, uncle?" |
59872 | Oh, did I hurt you? |
59872 | Or shall you go into the garden to look for him?" |
59872 | Perhaps he is asleep in bed; have you looked?" |
59872 | Rupert had suddenly sprung at Jack, and seizing him by the arm almost screamed out--"Spring, did you say? |
59872 | Rupert saw him coming, and cried out,''I say, Mr. Wilson, is father after you, too?'' |
59872 | Shall I ever forget those few minutes? |
59872 | Shall I send a telegram to Bath to say the youngsters can come? |
59872 | Shall we be like the monks who hid in the old water mill, and fish for our dinner? |
59872 | This is our castle, but what is a castle without fortifications? |
59872 | Was he very furious?" |
59872 | We ca n''t let her go before us?" |
59872 | What did you say about those steps? |
59872 | What do you say to my ghost being the one who rescued him? |
59872 | What do you say, captain? |
59872 | What do you think of it, Edric?" |
59872 | What do you want? |
59872 | What is he like? |
59872 | What is the time, Rupert?" |
59872 | What on earth is that?" |
59872 | What will uncle and aunt say? |
59872 | What''s the good of lovely windows like those, with old ivy climbing outside? |
59872 | What''s the matter? |
59872 | What''s the matter?" |
59872 | Whose doing is that?" |
59872 | Why did n''t you shout, captain?" |
59872 | Why did you leave the tower when I told you not to do so?" |
59872 | Your new man gave me a sandwich and something out of a little bottle, and I----""My new man?" |
59872 | how could you?" |
59872 | is there another river up there? |
59872 | what are you going to do?" |
59872 | who in the world is that? |
59872 | you, Joe?" |
34263 | , in such agitated tones, that Sir Jonah at once cried out:What''s the matter?" |
34263 | And he did n''t say where he had gone? |
34263 | And no one tried to save them? |
34263 | And the noise Bridget referred to,Miss S---- ventured to remark, somewhat timidly,"was that the Banshee?" |
34263 | And they were sure it was my father? |
34263 | Are you Mr Robert Dunloe? |
34263 | Are you sure it is n''t Mary, and they are not killing her? |
34263 | Are you sure? |
34263 | Are you sure? |
34263 | But did n''t he get my note? |
34263 | But who''s going to die here? 34263 Did that fellow Dick look at you? |
34263 | Did you hear that tremendous knock? |
34263 | Do you hear that screaming and clapping? 34263 Do you know her people, or anything about them?" |
34263 | Done what? |
34263 | How can I tell? 34263 Hullo,"Wilfred exclaimed,"who''s that?" |
34263 | Hulloa, Donald, is that you? |
34263 | I said:''When did you see it? |
34263 | I say, old fellow, why do n''t you congratulate me? |
34263 | Kindly explain what you mean? |
34263 | Oh, sir, are you one of the revellers? |
34263 | One of the revellers? |
34263 | She went? |
34263 | The Señors have been in a battle, yes? |
34263 | To- morrow, that is a tremendous way off, and is n''t it to- morrow that that fellow O''Flanagan is coming? |
34263 | Were they both drowned then? |
34263 | What are you doing? |
34263 | What are you up to? 34263 What on earth do you mean?" |
34263 | What was she like? |
34263 | What was she like? |
34263 | What''s wrong with that tree? |
34263 | What''s wrong with the tree? |
34263 | Whatever is happening? |
34263 | Where is cook? |
34263 | Where''s she gone? |
34263 | Which is the nearest town? |
34263 | Who are you, and what the---- do you want here? |
34263 | Who is that? |
34263 | You do n''t mean to say there really was a knock? 34263 And yet, why had Dick gone off in such a hurry? 34263 Are you alive? |
34263 | At that instant there was a noise outside, and, thinking it was O''Hara, he called out,"Hulloa, Bob, is that you?" |
34263 | Besides, how should I know him?" |
34263 | But how came you with a letter for me? |
34263 | But what are all these bricks for, and this mortar?" |
34263 | But what on earth does she think she''s doing? |
34263 | Can you?" |
34263 | Did he dare to look at you? |
34263 | Do you do all the work of this house? |
34263 | Do you think she will come again?" |
34263 | Had he got on a bit too rapidly? |
34263 | Have you ever met anyone who has seen one? |
34263 | Have you suddenly gone mad?" |
34263 | How the deuce do you account for it?" |
34263 | Is there no one else here to help you?" |
34263 | May I ask why?" |
34263 | Miss Bunworth, who, during this strange recital, was growing more and more bewildered, now exclaimed impatiently:"What_ is_ it you mean? |
34263 | Miss Georgina exclaimed,"whatever''s the matter, Bridget?" |
34263 | Ralph exclaimed,"and did n''t he leave any message?" |
34263 | The gentleman looks shocked, but is there anything so very dreadful in killing a pig? |
34263 | The good Banshee in a family is always supposed to make it, but why did n''t I hear her? |
34263 | The lady who requested me to give it you mentioned the fact that a relative of hers had been taken very ill.""When and where did you see her?" |
34263 | Was anyone with him at the time?" |
34263 | Was she old or young, dark or fair?" |
34263 | What do you mean?" |
34263 | What had this starry- eyed creature done to offend him? |
34263 | What in the world is it?" |
34263 | What is it? |
34263 | What on earth are you staring at it for in that ridiculous fashion? |
34263 | What then caused those sounds? |
34263 | What was he to do? |
34263 | What, he wondered, did they portend? |
34263 | Whatever can it mean?" |
34263 | Who can she be, and what was she like?" |
34263 | Whoever is she?" |
34263 | Why do you look like that?" |
34263 | Why should it only be you? |
34263 | You have n''t seen a ghost, have you?" |
34263 | exclaimed, on the verge of fainting,"what can be the meaning of it? |
34263 | my wife whispered, catching hold of me by the arm,"and what is it?" |
34263 | she asked,"and why are n''t you asleep?" |
46647 | ''But how did you get the money?'' 46647 ''But you are not going away with my money, are you?'' |
46647 | ''Can you give it back to me?'' 46647 ''So it is money you want?'' |
46647 | ''What do you mean bythis horrible place"? |
46647 | ''Will you stay where you are until I can get some?'' 46647 But why?" |
46647 | But, do you know? 46647 Can such things be?" |
46647 | Did I hear_ what_? |
46647 | Do those lines mean anything? |
46647 | Do you mean to tell me,he demanded, looking at me incredulously and with alarm still in his face,"that you did not hear that awful groan?" |
46647 | Do_ you_ know what has become of those tomatoes? |
46647 | Have you been playing me a trick? |
46647 | I said:''Who are you, and what do you want?'' 46647 In heaven''s name,"I cried,"what is it?" |
46647 | Is this insanity? |
46647 | Oh, no, dear,I said;"these are probably some other pansies; how can you tell they came from your bed?" |
46647 | So you did not give them to him, after all? |
46647 | Something very bad has happened-- do you want to tell me what it is? |
46647 | Tell me, has anyone passed through here into my room? |
46647 | Then what he said was true, that his mother comes back to trouble him? |
46647 | They call it''palmistry,''do n''t they? 46647 What is it, sir?" |
46647 | What is it? |
46647 | What is it? |
46647 | What on earth is the matter with those dogs? |
46647 | What were the clothes like? |
46647 | Where did you find it? |
46647 | Why do you come to me? |
46647 | Why, no,her friend replied;"how could anyone? |
46647 | Why,she exclaimed,"how did these come here? |
46647 | ''Do you need it now?'' |
46647 | ''Is n''t that enough?'' |
46647 | ( naming the Liberal clergyman and writer whom most of us had known in Boston, and who had died some five or six years before)"Why, is that you? |
46647 | --"And from where?" |
46647 | --I echoed her words:--"How do you know it is Deeming''s mother?" |
46647 | And how had it been extracted from the locked box inside the locked dressing table? |
46647 | And then, the dogs:--do you think_ they_ were dreaming, too?" |
46647 | Are you sure you were not dreaming?" |
46647 | But what happened then?" |
46647 | But why had he wished to sell it, and what help could he hope to gain thereby? |
46647 | Ca n''t you see that we want to talk?" |
46647 | Ca n''t_ you_ see her?" |
46647 | Do you remember that rhinestone brooch in the shape of a butterfly you bought for me one evening in Paris, four years ago?" |
46647 | Do you see_ that_?" |
46647 | Here is my question:--What is your opinion of Deeming?" |
46647 | How can I give these coins to you?'' |
46647 | I commented upon this circumstance to my hostess, who replied:--"Yes, it is very early for them, is it not? |
46647 | I cried;''are you Deeming?'' |
46647 | I exclaimed, interrupting the recital for the first time:"was_ that_ what he said?" |
46647 | I exclaimed:--"It was Deeming?--and he asked you to buy_ soap_?" |
46647 | I exclaimed;"what about the dogs?" |
46647 | I exclaimed;"what are those dogs doing here? |
46647 | I have always believed the stories of haunted houses were bally nonsense; but in heaven''s name what does all this mean?" |
46647 | I say-- what kind of a house_ is_ this? |
46647 | Is that what has disturbed you to- night?" |
46647 | Is there no significance, is there no consolation, not only to myself but to others who have been bereaved, in this episode? |
46647 | It said:''Madame, do you want to buy some_ soap_?''" |
46647 | It was not on the pin cushion last night; how in the world did it come here?" |
46647 | Oh, Minnie, Minnie, what are you doing?" |
46647 | Tell me, John Weiss, what it all means? |
46647 | The garments from the wardrobe of the hangman; was the murderer doomed to go through all Eternity in this hideous attire? |
46647 | The money was returned again, but had it meanwhile been entered in some misty ledger to the credit of its temporary bearer? |
46647 | The offered sale of soap; is the occupation of"drummer"or"bagman"practiced beyond the Styx, and for what ghostly manufacturers are orders solicited? |
46647 | Was it for the toilette or the laundry? |
46647 | Was the soap a sample? |
46647 | What are you doing here, and what does this mean? |
46647 | What could he mean by offering to sell me soap?" |
46647 | What do you mean?" |
46647 | What does she bother me so for? |
46647 | What was its price per cake, and was there any discount by the box? |
46647 | Why ca n''t she leave me alone?" |
46647 | Why do n''t the band play?" |
46647 | Why have you done so?'' |
46647 | Why should you distress me as you do?'' |
46647 | You ca n''t see her? |
46647 | exclaimed Mrs. Candler,"what in the world is the matter? |
46647 | he cried;"did you hear_ that_?" |
46647 | stammered my companion:--"did you hear it_ then_?" |
46647 | we inquired;"an apparition?" |
12674 | ''"We can not find your book,"I said;"where have you concealed it?" |
12674 | ''Am_ I_ going to die, grandmamma?'' |
12674 | ''If your spirits are spirits, why do they let the world wag on in its old way, why do they confine themselves to trivial effects?'' |
12674 | ''Is she going to die?'' |
12674 | ''Is there no one present,''the learned judge asked in general,''who can give better testimony?'' |
12674 | ''Soon?'' |
12674 | ''What friend?'' |
12674 | ''Where are the soules that swarmed in time past? |
12674 | ''Who knows?'' |
12674 | ''Why do you weep, grandmamma, are you not happy where you are?'' |
12674 | And whither has it led us? |
12674 | And why not toleration for''immoral''actions? |
12674 | Are the sounds in Haunted Houses real or hallucinatory? |
12674 | Being asked why she had always withdrawn before, she said she had seen''like a boyn( halo?) |
12674 | But this evidence is in itself a fact to be considered--''Why do these gentlemen tell this tale?'' |
12674 | But we still ask:''_ Do_ objects move untouched? |
12674 | But who ever swore that he_ saw_ witches so transported? |
12674 | But why is it always the same old story? |
12674 | But why not, as we know nothing about our relations with the invisible world? |
12674 | But, when they expect nothing, and are disappointed by having to witness prodigies, the same old prodigies, what is the explanation? |
12674 | By what sign can we be sure that the manifesting agency present is that of a god, an angel, an archon, or a soul? |
12674 | Can''high scientific attainments''leave their possessor with such humble powers of observation? |
12674 | Do impostors and credulous persons deliberately''get up''the subject in rare old books? |
12674 | Do the expenses of exorcism fall on landlord or tenant? |
12674 | Does Mr. Sully believe that the portrait was an original portrait of a real person? |
12674 | Finally, the author has often been asked:''But what do you believe yourself?'' |
12674 | First, why abuse the judge at Tours? |
12674 | From the hour of my marriage till this day, what have I wrought against thee that I need conceal?'' |
12674 | Have all other Mediums secret wires? |
12674 | Have you ever had any hallucination? |
12674 | He asks, among other things: How can gods, as in the evocations of gods, be made subject to necessity, and_ compelled_ to manifest themselves? |
12674 | He would ask:''Does M. Littre accept the alleged facts; if so, how does he explain them?'' |
12674 | How did his Zulu learn the method of Home, of the Egyptian diviners, of St. Joseph of Cupertino? |
12674 | How do''expectancy''and the''dominant idea''explain this experience, which Mr. Aide has published in the Nineteenth Century? |
12674 | How does a demon differ from a hero, or from a mere soul of a dead man? |
12674 | How is the identity of the spirit to be established? |
12674 | How is the inquirer, how was Porphyry to know that the assertion is correct, that it is not the mere''boasting''of some vulgar spirit? |
12674 | I have been at a loss ever since what to make of this last,''says Patrick Walker, and who is not at a loss? |
12674 | In either case, what causes the hallucination, or are there various possible sorts of causes? |
12674 | In what sorts of periods, in what conditions of general thought and belief, are the alleged abnormal phenomena most current? |
12674 | Is it a disease of observation? |
12674 | Is it not the business of the owner of the house to''whustle on his ain parten,''to have his own bogie exorcised? |
12674 | Is there a method of imposture handed down by one generation of bad little girls to another? |
12674 | Is there such a thing as persistent identity of hallucination among the sane? |
12674 | It is suggested that Graime himself was the murderer, else, how did he know so much about it? |
12674 | Now, could a hallucination lift a mosquito- curtain, or even produce the impression that it did so, while the curtain was really unmoved? |
12674 | Now, had the peay tradition reached Cock Lane, or was the peay- man counterfeiting, very cleverly, some real phenomenon? |
12674 | Now, if the committee do not provide themselves with a good''sensitive''comrade, what can they expect, but what they get, that is, nothing? |
12674 | On the night of Lindsay''s death, Pitcairn dreamed that he was in Edinburgh, where Lindsay met him and said,''Archie, perhaps ye heard I''m dead?'' |
12674 | On the other hand, if Reginald Scot asked today,''Who heareth the noises, who seeth the visions?'' |
12674 | On this turned the fate of Joan of Arc: Were her voices and visions of God or of Satan? |
12674 | Or are demons in some way evolved out of something abstracted from living bodies? |
12674 | Or are there certain mystic correspondences in the nature of things, which may be detected? |
12674 | Or, if we disbelieve this cloud of witnesses, if they voluntarily fabled, we ask, why do they all fable in exactly the same fashion? |
12674 | Saint or sorcerer? |
12674 | So far, everybody is agreed: the differences begin when we ask what causes hallucinations, and what different classes of hallucinations exist? |
12674 | That is simple, but why are sane, scientific, modern observers, and even disgusted modern sceptics, in a tale, and that just the old savage tale? |
12674 | The neighbours make the noises, and again the narrator asks''how?'' |
12674 | The question was, did an indicator move, or not, under a certain amount of pressure? |
12674 | The spiritus percutiens,''rapping spirit''(?) |
12674 | Then were the spectators of the agile crockery collectively hallucinated? |
12674 | They asked:''What is the difference between a living body and a dead one?'' |
12674 | Thyraeus now raises the difficult question:''Are the sounds heard in haunted houses real, or hallucinatory?'' |
12674 | To the friends of a force or faculty in our nature, M. Littre remarks, in effect,''Why do n''t you_ use_ your force? |
12674 | Vincent?'' |
12674 | Was he well? |
12674 | Was there any coincidence between the hallucination and facts at the time unknown to you? |
12674 | We do not so much ask:''Are these stories true?'' |
12674 | Well, be it so; what does anthropology study with so much zest as survivals? |
12674 | What have she- goats to do in the matter? |
12674 | What is his motive? |
12674 | What makes them repeat the stories they do repeat? |
12674 | What then is the type, the typical haunted house, from which, if narratives vary much, they are apt to break down under cross- examination? |
12674 | When they met, she said:''Did you take your friend with you?'' |
12674 | Whence, then, comes the uniformity of evidence? |
12674 | Why should the behaviour of ghosts be an exception? |
12674 | Why was there no trial of the case till''about 1798 or 1799''? |
12674 | Will can move my limbs, if it also moves my table, what is there superstitious in that? |
12674 | X X? |
12674 | Yes: but how does that explain volatile pots and pans? |
12674 | and how many portraits of mediaeval people does he suppose to exist in English country houses? |
12674 | and''why?'' |
12674 | as,''_ Why are these stories told_?'' |
12674 | what have I done that thou should''st help to assail me? |
12674 | where are the spirits? |
12674 | who heareth their noises? |
12674 | who seeth their visions?'' |
12674 | why do n''t you supply a new motor for locomotives? |
12674 | { 207b} Consequently, they, at least, were hallucinations; so what was Lieutenant B.? |
12674 | { 319b} Perhaps the unscientific reader supposes that Dr. Carpenter replied to the arguments of M. de Gasparin? |
12674 | { 65b} How do you discriminate between demons, and gods, that are manifest, or not manifest? |
12674 | { 70b} Or is there a blending of the soul''s operations with the divine inspiration? |
41739 | (_ Examines MRS. MILDEW''S bundle upon his knees._) What do you call this? |

41739 | If he wanted to keep''em after he was dead, a wicked old screw, why was n''t he natural in his life time? |

41739 | Will you decide what men shall live-- what men shall die? |
41739 | Yes-- you used to stop, and say"How d''ye do?" |
41739 | You do n''t mean to say you took''em down, rings and all, with him lying there? |
41739 | You went to day, then? |

30440 | ''And have you no explanation of these hauntings?'' 30440 ''But within a radius of a few miles?'' |
30440 | ''How far are the houses off the hill?'' 30440 ''Well,''William replied, a puzzled expression on his face,''you noticed an ebony chair in the room?'' |
30440 | And what would be the after- effect, Mr O''Donnell? |
30440 | But why did you venture here alone? |
30440 | Is n''t it terrible? |
30440 | Pray what was the matter with her? 30440 Well?" |
30440 | What is your opinion on that point? |
30440 | Where is she? |
30440 | Wo n''t you come with me? |
30440 | Yes,I replied;"but how on earth do you know?" |
30440 | You will let me know when you do? |
30440 | ''Are the houses close together-- in the same road or valley?'' |
30440 | ''Whoever can it be?'' |
30440 | ; or are they things that were never carnate? |
30440 | A phantasm of some dead tree? |
30440 | And, if they have one sense, have they not others? |
30440 | Another glass of Moselle?" |
30440 | Are the insects, the trees, the fish responsible for the diseases with which they are inflicted? |
30440 | Are their crude devices and mad, tomboyish pranks merely reactionary, and the only means they have of finding vent for their naturally high spirits? |
30440 | But are we always right? |
30440 | But be serious now, I beg you, and tell me what made you come to- night and what you have been doing all these years? |
30440 | But what caused the man in the street to notice me? |
30440 | But, of course, you wo n''t mind spending a night in it?'' |
30440 | CHAPTER VI COMPLEX HAUNTINGS AND OCCULT BESTIALITIES What are occult bestialities? |
30440 | Ca n''t you see it?" |
30440 | Can I expect you to believe that? |
30440 | Can they see, hear, or smell? |
30440 | Can they, like certain-- not all-- dogs and horses and other animals, detect the proximity of the unknown? |
30440 | Can you see any association in the two hauntings-- any possible connection between what you heard and what Mr Vercoe saw?" |
30440 | Could anyone save the blindest and most fanatical of biblical bigots call the ordainer of such a punishment merciful? |
30440 | Dingan exclaimed, when I approached him on the subject,''the mango tree on the Yuka Road, just before you get to the bridge over the river? |
30440 | Do they tremble and shake with fear at the sight of some psychic vegetation, or are they utterly devoid of any such faculty? |
30440 | Do you know what the sounds were, Baroness? |
30440 | Had she no dowry, or was she an heiress with an ogre of a father, or was she already married?" |
30440 | Hans inquired,"and why unarmed? |
30440 | Have I seen them? |
30440 | Have they any senses at all? |
30440 | Have you heard from Mr Vercoe lately?" |
30440 | How came you to get hold of such a crazy idea?'' |
30440 | How utterly futile, for who, in God''s name, would hear me? |
30440 | I fell on my knees before her and kissed-- what? |
30440 | I murmured,''why Dolmen?'' |
30440 | I was at an"at home"one afternoon several seasons ago, when an old friend of mine suddenly whispered:"You see that lady in black, over there? |
30440 | If the unknown brain has a separate existence, and can detach itself at times( as in"projection"), why must it wait for death to set it entirely free? |
30440 | In my dreams, in the wild fantasies that had oft- times visited my pillow at night-- in delirium, in reality, where? |
30440 | Is n''t she divine? |
30440 | Is n''t that so, Jacques?'' |
30440 | It is more than twelve hours since he was executed; will anything-- will the shape, the personality, I anticipate-- come? |
30440 | Leaning over the little tile- covered table at which we sat, the stranger suddenly said:"Do you see anything by me? |
30440 | May not that creaking be sometimes due to an invisible presence in the chair? |
30440 | Now, what do you think of that?" |
30440 | Or is it the reverse? |
30440 | Over and over again I asked myself the hackneyed, but none the less thrilling question,''What form will it take? |
30440 | Presently a voice, every whit as lovely as the face, said:"So you are Jack''s chum?" |
30440 | Shall we leave the beast here or take it with us?" |
30440 | Something is coming, and, if that something is not the phantasm of him whom I believe is earthbound, whose phantasm is it? |
30440 | The Crescent, Bath?" |
30440 | Then, quite suddenly, a man stepped out from the dark entrance to a by- street, and, touching me lightly on the arm, said,"Is there anything amiss? |
30440 | WHERE? |
30440 | Was it a shape of my fancy, or was it horrible reality that I heard and saw on that night? |
30440 | What ails you?" |
30440 | What are pixies? |
30440 | What do you think of them?" |
30440 | What had I seen? |
30440 | What is the matter?" |
30440 | What phantasm of any standing at all would be attracted by such baubles? |
30440 | What prompted him to lend me his aid? |
30440 | What shall I do?" |
30440 | What was it? |
30440 | What was it? |
30440 | What was the history of the house?" |
30440 | What, then, is it? |
30440 | When will you start, and what will you take with you?'' |
30440 | When would he begin his job and how? |
30440 | Whence came it? |
30440 | Whence come these strangers, to all appearance of flesh and blood like myself? |
30440 | Where could one find a greater combination of typically criminal characteristics? |
30440 | Who has not seen, or fancied he has seen, a fire- coffin? |
30440 | Why not? |
30440 | Why should He? |
30440 | Why? |
30440 | Will it be simply a phantasm of a dead Celt, or some peculiarly grotesque and awful elemental[1] attracted to the spot by human remains?'' |
30440 | Would it be rid of him? |
30440 | Would that God, if He were almighty, have permitted the existence of such an enemy( or indeed an enemy at all) as the Devil? |
30440 | Yet of what? |
30440 | Yet what could I do? |
30440 | Yet where did these articles go, and of what use would they be to a poltergeist? |
30440 | You ask me why? |
30440 | _ Fire- coffins_ Who has not seen all manner of pictures in the fire? |
30440 | _ Mermaids_ Who would not, if they could, believe in mermaids? |
30440 | or a vice- elemental, whose presence there would be due to some particularly wicked crime or series of crimes perpetrated on or near the spot? |
30440 | some peculiar species of spirit( I have elsewhere termed a vagrarian), attracted thither by the loneliness of the locality? |
30440 | some vicious, evil phantasm? |
30440 | was it true? |
30440 | what shall I do? |
42566 | Come, wots yer shout for liquor? 42566 Do ye me dear?" |
42566 | Ho, trespasser, what shall I do? |
42566 | It''s a fair deceit And I am a curious man-- Yes I am a curious man, my badge Is seventeen seventy- seven, But wot is a badge? 42566 Mein gott, vots them?" |

42566 | O WHERE is my Johnnie acushla? |
42566 | O troubadour, what brings you here, So lone and sad? |
42566 | O who am I? 42566 Then how on earth could you expect to be the man who could get on?" |
42566 | Thy name? |
42566 | What? 42566 Where is now, that love?" |
42566 | Why do n''t you get up out of that? |
42566 | Will you give that rose to me? |
42566 | Will you slack? |
42566 | Would you know him, an''he be Waiting there, by yonder tree? |
42566 | ''Twas on her mother''s sofa he looked at her, said he,"I''m kinder sweet on you, love, will you accept of me? |

42566 | Have we been privileged to pay our swollen rates and tax? |
42566 | He cried"Shall I evict by Law? |
42566 | He jumped up in bed, and he cried with an oath,"What''s that, that you''re doing, you scamp?" |
42566 | He stopped the old piano, and"Vot of zat?" |
42566 | He swigged the pint before him, then heaved a bitter sigh,"What? |
42566 | I heard a voice that muttered"What are ye doin''there?" |
42566 | Is there a green light, on my face, That you should spake to me? |
42566 | Mervyn Jones of Pontypridd?" |
42566 | Now shall I chuck you out myself, Or seek injunct, from Chancerie?" |
42566 | O have ye saw the blackberries, Upon the brambly bush? |
42566 | O have you ever saunthered out Upon a winther''s night, Whin the crispy frost, is on the ground, An''all the stars, are bright? |

42566 | O is she dead, thy wife? |
42566 | Or take the Law myself, on you?" |
42566 | PRETTY maiden, all the way, All the way, all the way, Pretty maiden, why so gay, On the road, to London? |
42566 | Said he,"What''s up? |
42566 | She greeted me upsmiling, with business kindled fire, And volunteered the question,"What rooms do you require?" |
42566 | Siz he"What''s all this squealin''for? |
42566 | THE tears were in her eye, Said I"what makes you cry?" |
42566 | That thou should''st cause the lieges to irradiate their hair, With horror at thy felon work? |
42566 | The groom ran down the stable stairs with horsey oathings dire, And a constable came knocking said he"are you''s on fire?" |
42566 | The iron ships, and bullet proof cuirass to scape the fight? |
42566 | The pensive penguin harkened unto his lonely wail; The albatross did follow he shrieked him for the clew,"O who am I? |

44625 | ''A stranger? 44625 ''And this?'' |
44625 | ''I will do anything you ask,''replied the passenger,''but what shall I write?'' 44625 ''The matter, sir? |
44625 | ''Well, Mr. Bruce,''said the Captain,''did not I tell you that you had been dreaming?'' 44625 ''What were you doing?'' |
44625 | ''Why, Mr. Bruce,''said the latter,''what in the world is the matter with you?'' 44625 ''You say that this is your handwriting?'' |
44625 | But are there no real ghosts? 44625 Have you then forgotten our promises to each other, pledged in early life? |
44625 | I again addressed it, this time in the language of the country,''What do you want?'' 44625 I strove to speak-- my voice utterly failed me; I could only think to myself, Is this fear? |
44625 | Tell me,I said,"Lord Tyrone, why and wherefore are you here at this time of the night?" |
44625 | The men saluted him; and the captain called out:''How''s she heading?'' 44625 This I immediately did; and the next day when my sister arrived, she asked me if I had complied with her request? |
44625 | Upon hearing this the captain said to the second mate:''When did you heave the lead? 44625 ''Could anyone have been stowed away?'' 44625 ''Well, do you like it?'' 44625 ''What are ye talkin''about?'' 44625 ''What is up?'' 44625 ''What was this gentleman about at noon to- day?'' 44625 13 The Terror of the Dark 14 What is a Ghost? 44625 18 Historic Investigations 20 Death Coincidences 21 Are They Due to Chance? 44625 ARE THEY DUE TO CHANCE? 44625 After all, is n''t there some reason for the fears that we all feel, more or less, at that time? 44625 After all, were not his arguments somewhat impressive? 44625 And why did_ It appear_? 44625 At last:''What is the meaning of this?'' 44625 Bruce?'' 44625 But how about those ghosts which appear some time after death? 44625 But you say,''he added, turning to the passenger,''that you did not dream of writing on a slate?'' 44625 But, after all, what_ is_ a ghost? 44625 CAN HAUNTED HOUSES BECURED"? |
44625 | Can I be of use to you?'' |
44625 | Can I do anything for you?'' |
44625 | Can not you see why I hate it so?" |
44625 | Can that be right? |
44625 | Can this be done? |
44625 | Chance, you say? |
44625 | Could a simple"hallucination"have been so widespread and so prevalent? |
44625 | Could a_ hundred_? |
44625 | Did the animal succeed in affecting his master by telepathy? |
44625 | For, if a living mind can influence the living by telepathy; why not a"dead"one? |
44625 | For, if the phantom were a mere hallucination, as many claim, how did several see it at once? |
44625 | Had n''t they seen him with a sword on every''quid''they''d ever seen? |
44625 | He then called his first mate, as he was going off watch, and asked him how all things fared? |
44625 | How came you here when you are so ill?" |
44625 | How can a telepathic impulse from a distant mind cause a picture to appear in space, as it were, before the recipient? |
44625 | How can there be real ghost stories when there are no real ghosts? |
44625 | How do they manifest? |
44625 | How is yours, sir?'' |
44625 | How many of us have seen the microbe that kills? |
44625 | I called aloud:''May n''t I strike a light and show you the way along this dark hall?'' |
44625 | I exclaimed,''Good God, how and where?'' |
44625 | I fell on my knees before her and kissed-- what? |
44625 | I got annoyed and said,''Can you not speak, man, and tell me if anything is wrong?'' |
44625 | I had not been awake long enough to remember that she was dead, and exclaimed quite naturally,''Why, dear, what''s the matter?'' |
44625 | I said:''Who are you?'' |
44625 | I started up and said:''Edward, is there anything wrong?'' |
44625 | If not, why the coincidence? |
44625 | If we were to believe that a simple hallucination caused the figure, how account for this identification? |
44625 | In my dreams, in the wild fantasies that had oft- times visited by pillow at night-- in delirium, in reality, where? |
44625 | In short, we are back to our original question: What are ghosts? |
44625 | In what do they consist? |
44625 | In what may it be supposed to consist? |
44625 | It asked:''Who is the lady in white?'' |
44625 | It had not yet come in, and Sir Tristram asked:''Why are you so particularly eager about letters to- day?'' |
44625 | It is this: Can so- called Haunted Houses be_ cured_? |
44625 | It would lie down by my side; perhaps touch me; perhaps-- who could tell? |
44625 | Mrs. Claughton said:''Am I dreaming, or is it true?'' |
44625 | My curiosity, however, was far greater than my fear, and I kept asking myself what the thing was, and why it was there? |
44625 | On seeing Z. a few days afterwards, I inquired:''Did anything happen at your rooms on Saturday night?'' |
44625 | So far so good, but how about apparitions of the living? |
44625 | So, after all, as I said, is n''t there some reasonable ground for one''s fear at such times?" |
44625 | TELEPATHIC HALLUCINATIONS How may the theory be said to work? |
44625 | TRUE GHOST STORIES CHAPTER I WHAT IS A GHOST? |
44625 | The first chapter deals with the interesting question,"What is a Ghost?" |
44625 | Then, before you could say"knife,"the Germans had turned, and we were after them, fighting like ninety....''"''Where was this?'' |
44625 | This, therefore, is one very strong point in favor of this hypothesis; but if the ghost is a real, outstanding entity, how account for his clothes? |
44625 | WHAT IS A GHOST? |
44625 | WHERE? |
44625 | Was it real? |
44625 | Was it the result of imposture? |
44625 | Was it the work of imagination? |
44625 | Was there something amiss with my own hearing, then, that I could distinguish no word amid these deeply emphasized tones? |
44625 | Was this hallucination, or some vision of the unseen, coming in so unexpected a fashion? |
44625 | What did your mate see?'' |
44625 | What do they do with themselves? |
44625 | What do we mean by this? |
44625 | What had I seen? |
44625 | What has been said by way of explanation of these cases? |
44625 | What should I do if I were in darkness?'' |
44625 | What water had you?'' |
44625 | When we regained the avenue( in silence) Miss Moore asked Miss Langton,''What did you see?'' |
44625 | Where do ghosts live, and how? |
44625 | Who else would venture down without orders?'' |
44625 | Who is that at your desk?'' |
44625 | Who wrote the_ other_?'' |
44625 | Who?'' |
44625 | Why do they believe? |
44625 | Why do they return? |
44625 | Why should not the surviving spirit of man continue to influence us, by telepathy? |
44625 | Would they believe if they had no cause to do so? |
44625 | Yet if we can not believe this, how are we to explain this difficulty-- and the fact that ghosts wear ghostly garments? |
44625 | Yet, after all, why should they? |
44625 | Yet, if there are real, objective, outstanding ghosts, how can we explain them? |
44625 | You ask me why? |
44625 | You do n''t mean to tell me you did n''t see her?'' |
44625 | _ One_ case of this character might be explained in such manner; but could_ fifty_? |
44625 | _ What is_ this connection? |
44625 | _ Who_ or_ what_ was it that waked the captain and bade him save the ship? |
44625 | _ Why_ should Lord Brougham have dreamed this particular dream at the very moment his friend died? |
44625 | during its early years-- a terror which is, to a certain extent, shared by animals and even insects-- does all this signify nothing? |

40729 | Is it good or bad? |
40729 | Is it not enough that you are one of those whose passions made this cap, and force me through whole trains of years to wear it low upon my brow? |

40729 | M._ You wish to be anonymous? |
40729 | May I make bold to enquire what business has brought you here? |
40729 | My dear Mr. Scrooge, are you really serious? |
40729 | Not the little prize turkey; the big one? |
40729 | Ought we not demand an explanation? |

40729 | Tut, do n''t I know(_ laughingly_), Mr. Scrooge? |
40729 | We''re not going to pick holes in each other''s coats, I suppose? |
40729 | Were there no poor houses to which its light would have conducted_ me_? |

40729 | Why give it as a reason for not coming now? |
40729 | Why have shown me all that you have, if I am past all hope? |
40729 | Why not? |
40729 | Why? |
40729 | Will you come and see me? |
40729 | Will you do me the favor? |
40729 | Will you let me in? |
40729 | Will you not speak to me? |
40729 | Would it apply to any kind of dinner on this day? |
40729 | You do n''t mean that, I''m sure? |
40729 | You see this tooth- pick? |
40729 | You went to- day, then, Robert? |
40729 | You''re not a skater, I suppose? |
40729 | [_ Exeunt._]_ Scro._ Spirit, is there a peculiar flavor in what you sprinkle from your torch? |
40729 | [_ Shakes chain and wrings his hands._]_ Scro._ You are fettered; tell me why? |
40729 | _ Enter Mr. Barnes_, L.,_ passes across stage; Scrooge follows and stops him.__ Scro._ My dear sir(_ taking both, his hands_), how do you do? |
40729 | _ Fred._ But why? |
40729 | _ Fred._ I want nothing from you; I ask nothing of you; why can not we be friends? |
40729 | _ Fred._ What is it? |
40729 | _ Gho._ Man of the worldly mind, do you believe in me, or not? |
40729 | _ Gho._ Slow? |
40729 | _ Gho._ What evidence do you require of my reality beyond that of your senses? |
40729 | _ Gho._ Why do you doubt your senses? |
40729 | _ Gho._ You do n''t believe in me? |
40729 | _ Joe._ His blankets? |
40729 | _ Joe._ What do you call wasting of it? |
40729 | _ Joe._ You do n''t mean to say you took''em down, rings and all, with Old Scrooge lying there? |
40729 | _ Joe._(_ Opening bundle._) What do you call this? |
40729 | _ Julia._ Is it a tiger? |
40729 | _ Mrs B._ We are quite ruined? |
40729 | _ Mrs M._ But, mother, did you really love him? |
40729 | _ Sarah._ Is it a cat? |
40729 | _ Sarah._ What is it? |
40729 | _ Scro._ And the union work- houses-- are they still in operation? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Are spirit''s lives so short? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Are there no prisons? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Can you-- can you sit down? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Could n''t I take''em all at once, and have it over, Jacob? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Do you know the poulterers in the next street but one, at the corner? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Going to church, eh? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Have they no refuge or resource? |
40729 | _ Scro._ How long since you contracted the debt? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Is it? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Is that the chance and hope you mentioned, Jacob? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Long past? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Spirit, tell me if Tiny Tim will live? |
40729 | _ Scro._ The tread- mill and the poor law are in full vigor, then? |
40729 | _ Scro._ To- night? |
40729 | _ Scro._ What else can I be when I live in such a world of fools as this? |
40729 | _ Scro._ What right have you to be passing here to remind me that it is Christmas? |
40729 | _ Scro._ What would you have me do? |
40729 | _ Scro._ What''s to day my fine fellow? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Where have I heard those words? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Who are you? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Who, and what are you? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Who_ were_ you then? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Why did you get married? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Why to a poor one most? |
40729 | _ Scro._ Why, James, how much do you owe me? |
40729 | _ Scro._ You travel fast? |
40729 | _ Spir._ Are there no prisons? |
40729 | _ Spir._ Have never walked forthwith the younger members of my family, meaning-- for I am very young-- my elder brothers, born in these later years? |
40729 | _ Spir._ What is the matter? |
40729 | _ Spir._ What is the matter? |
40729 | _ Spir._ You remember it? |
40729 | _ Stevens._ How are you? |
40729 | _ Topper._ Is it a dog? |
40729 | _ Voice outside._ Eh? |
40729 | _ Voice outside._ What do you take me for? |
40729 | _ Voice outside._ What the one as big as me? |
40729 | _ Young S._ Have I ever sought release? |
40729 | _ Young S._ Home, little Fan? |
40729 | _ Young S._ In what, then? |
40729 | _ Young S._ What idol has displaced you? |
40729 | _ Young S._ What then? |
40729 | _ Young S._ You think not? |
40729 | dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me? |
40729 | may I come in? |
40729 | not coming, on Christmas Day? |
40729 | who''s that? |
40729 | would you so soon put out, with worldly hands, the light I give? |
40729 | you boy in your Sunday clothes, what''s to- day? |
39485 | ''A black Newfoundland, with a large white streak on his flank?'' 39485 ''About what?'' |
39485 | ''And Monsieur Pelletier and the children, are they well?'' 39485 ''And the body of the dog?'' |
39485 | ''And the dog has attached himself to the regiment?'' 39485 ''And what did he say? |
39485 | ''And what did you do then, Mary?'' 39485 ''And,''said I,''how of the ghost? |
39485 | ''Are you afraid,''I said,''to go yourselves in the haunted chambers?'' 39485 ''Are you going up there now?'' |
39485 | ''Aye,''said he,''but where''s Robertson? 39485 ''Belonging to this regiment?'' |
39485 | ''But Fritz?'' 39485 ''But do you seriously mean to say, that you believe this to be a visionary dog, and not a dog of flesh and blood?'' |
39485 | ''But how can you live here then?'' 39485 ''But why did you leave? |
39485 | ''But why? 39485 ''Did you, sir?'' |
39485 | ''Do you mean to say you''ve really seen Mungo?'' 39485 ''Hamilton,''said he to the butler,''where did Captain S. sleep last night?'' |
39485 | ''Have you got my bat, Healy?'' 39485 ''He is dead, I suppose?'' |
39485 | ''How absurd,''said Mr. Zwengler;''and are you going to do it?'' 39485 ''How did he wake you?'' |
39485 | ''How?'' 39485 ''I suppose, Mary, you''ve never been away from home before?'' |
39485 | ''Into Jokel Falck, sir?'' 39485 ''Is Robertson here?'' |
39485 | ''Is any of your family ill?'' 39485 ''Is that the way he always wakes the men?'' |
39485 | ''Is there much game in the forest?'' 39485 ''Jacopo Ferraldi?'' |
39485 | ''Mais, ma bonne Françoise,''I said;''vous avez quelque chose-- est il arrivà © quelque malheur à Metz?'' 39485 ''Master wishes to know if you''ll soon be done, ma''am? |
39485 | ''My dear fellow, what are you talking about?'' 39485 ''Not been here?'' |
39485 | ''Nothing about farmer Gould?'' 39485 ''Of what period is it,''I asked,''and how happens it to have been made by an Italian?'' |
39485 | ''Perhaps the dog has taken a fancy to him?'' 39485 ''That''s a new name they''ve got for Schnapps, is n''t it?'' |
39485 | ''Then I suppose during the season the family live here?'' 39485 ''Then it is the upper floors that are haunted?'' |
39485 | ''Was it a white cat, ma''am?'' 39485 ''Well Healy,''said I, as he rolled in the barrel of beer; have you heard any news?'' |
39485 | ''Well, Healy,''I said,''is n''t this a shocking thing about poor Farmer Gould? 39485 ''Well, and what has happened?'' |
39485 | ''Well, sir, I''ve heard so; but how should he know? 39485 ''What does Healy say?'' |
39485 | ''What happened to him?'' 39485 ''What nonsense?'' |
39485 | ''What sort of unpleasant things?'' 39485 ''What''s the matter?'' |
39485 | ''What?'' 39485 ''Where did she go, James?'' |
39485 | ''Where''s Captain B?'' 39485 ''Where?'' |
39485 | ''Where?'' 39485 ''Who says so?'' |
39485 | ''Who was he?'' 39485 ''Whose dog is that?'' |
39485 | ''Why do n''t you abolish it?'' 39485 ''Why? |
39485 | ''Why?'' 39485 ''Why?'' |
39485 | ''Yes,''said he;''will you come?'' 39485 And are you convinced that it was a spectre, and not a dog of flesh and blood?" |
39485 | And did it seem generally believed? |
39485 | And have you ever seen Mungo again? |
39485 | Ar''n''t he come back with the stuff? |
39485 | Are you really venturing to accuse the General of cowardice? |
39485 | Arn''t he here? |
39485 | But what were these two helpless women to do, mutually confirmed in their apprehensions as they naturally were? 39485 Did you hear if he had been there?" |
39485 | Do you think the people who told you believed it? |
39485 | Have n''t you seen him? |
39485 | How should I know? |
39485 | I suppose he has been in England? |
39485 | If it is not a secret, perhaps you will tell it to me? |
39485 | Is Coullie come in? |
39485 | No.--Don''t you see he''s not? |
39485 | Then, she is dead? |
39485 | This question being answered, I said,''Did you meet anybody on the road that night?'' 39485 This was easily done, and we found the date and the name; the count paused, and then added,''I dare say you can guess it?'' |
39485 | Well, I think nothing can be so cowardly as to be afraid to own the truth? |
39485 | Wha''s that? |
39485 | What can that boy be doing, all this time? |
39485 | What did the host say to it? |
39485 | What is his name? |
39485 | Where''s Coullie? |
39485 | You did not meet him on the road, nor in the village? |
39485 | You have heard, I suppose of spectral illusions? |
39485 | You have n''t seen anything of Rob, have you? |
39485 | You might have been on that side of the hill? |
39485 | ''But do you mean to say,''said I,''that that is the reason the family do n''t live here, and that the castle is abandoned on that account?'' |
39485 | ''Did n''t you ask me to come and play a game at billiards; and did n''t I tell you I''d come as soon as I had finished my letter? |
39485 | ''Do you think I intend to become an assassin? |
39485 | ''Has he heard anything new about this affair?'' |
39485 | ''I saw him this evening-- who does he belong to?'' |
39485 | ''Let us take it out of the frame?'' |
39485 | ''What did you say?'' |
39485 | ''What has happened to Fritz?'' |
39485 | ''What is Mrs. Greathead''s attachment to the hedge?'' |
39485 | ''What reason have you for such an extraordinary belief?'' |
39485 | ''Which is the long room?'' |
39485 | Anything else wanted, sir?'' |
39485 | But everybody said,''Where did he get the money?'' |
39485 | But what could be his reason for so strange a proceeding, and why, if he wanted to evade the meeting, had he needlessly shown himself at all? |
39485 | Crowe?" |
39485 | Did any of your family ever say they saw anything extraordinary there?'' |
39485 | Did he meet Rob that day on his way to Gifford? |
39485 | Did n''t you like the place?'' |
39485 | Do you not think there_ are_ times when the material may give place to the supernatural? |
39485 | Even Annie no longer defended him, for where else could he be all night? |
39485 | H?'' |
39485 | Has Madame Pelletier got rid of her_ grippe_?'' |
39485 | He''s gone to Gifford ar''n''t he?" |
39485 | How are your friends? |
39485 | How beautiful are their characters when studied? |
39485 | How should they? |
39485 | How''s father?" |
39485 | However, I was just going to advance, and ask him what he was doing? |
39485 | I answered, rather indignant;''what do you mean by_ suppose_? |
39485 | I believe that''s all, Ma''am?'' |
39485 | I ca n''t think what he can mean by playing at Hide and Seek in this way?'' |
39485 | I do n''t know whether you saw the remains of an old tombstone in a corner of the garden? |
39485 | I had ceased to think of the circumstance, and inquired what old gentleman she meant? |
39485 | I said; how is that? |
39485 | I understand you lived in the house yourself a short time; may I ask if you found any similar difficulty?'' |
39485 | Is she to live with us?'' |
39485 | It was the first question addressed to him--"Where''s Rob?" |
39485 | Mary,''said one of the younger ones,''were n''t you frightened?'' |
39485 | Perhaps you''d too much to do?'' |
39485 | Shall I put the beer in the cellar?'' |
39485 | She called to him,"Is Rob come?" |
39485 | What could Rob be doing so much out of the road as the Quarry? |
39485 | What is their relation to the human race? |
39485 | What''s the use of trying to hoax one?'' |
39485 | Where in the world did this dog come from? |
39485 | Where was he when you saw him?" |
39485 | Which of the two should he follow? |
39485 | Who does he belong to?'' |
39485 | Who gave you the message?'' |
39485 | Who is she, mamma? |
39485 | Why are these creatures, sinless, as far as we see, placed here as the subjects of this barbarous, unthinking tyrant? |
39485 | Why did n''t he keep his word with us?'' |
39485 | Why not really stay away from Portree? |
39485 | Why? |
39485 | Will you take me up stairs and shew me those rooms?'' |
39485 | Wo n''t he sell her?'' |
39485 | You''ve heard he was found dead in the road this morning?'' |
39485 | do n''t you see it?'' |
39485 | exclaimed my friend, in evident surprise;''when did you tell me so? |
39485 | he chilled the marrow of my bones, and I could not away with him; so I said one day,"What if I go to England with the money?" |
39485 | how willing they are to serve us when kindly treated? |
39485 | how wonderful their intelligence when cultivated? |
39485 | no, why should I be frightened at a shadow?'' |
39485 | not this morning, as you were passing my quarter?'' |
39485 | said Mrs. Colman,''do you know what you''re saying?'' |
39485 | was he pleased or otherwise, by the_ denouement_?'' |
39485 | what''s the matter?" |
39769 | ''Are we not children born of the one Father?'' 39769 ''But,''I said at last,''are n''t you going to tell me what has so unnerved you?'' |
39769 | Am I my brother''s keeper? |
39769 | Are n''t you well? |
39769 | At last I said,''Do n''t you think we had better leave to- day? 39769 But surely you heard the piano being played?" |
39769 | But what sort of ghosts haunt it? |
39769 | Do we need anything else, Phædrus? 39769 Have many people seen him? |
39769 | Have you known any one who has ever seen anything? |
39769 | How is it done? |
39769 | Is it always the same figure? |
39769 | It is a very large house, I suppose? |
39769 | Seen things? 39769 Then what did you see?" |
39769 | Then you all heard it? |
39769 | Well, what of it? 39769 What did she think of the bathroom?" |
39769 | What sort of figures? |
39769 | What the devil is he to do? |
39769 | Who was the man who killed himself in this room? |
39769 | You also? |
39769 | ''What was it he had to do? |
39769 | A day or two afterwards I said suddenly to the old family lawyer,"Was there ever a question of Uncle William leaving his money to me?" |
39769 | After a few minutes of friendly conversation, which had taken an amusingly domestic turn, he said to me,"Now, how much has your husband got a year?" |
39769 | After a little trivial conversation I said,"By the way, who is that brown man, dressed like a Satyr, who has been with you lately?" |
39769 | Again, why did not Mrs. Sinclair see this ghost when her mother so plainly saw it? |
39769 | Are burglars ever as rash as that? |
39769 | Are the ghosts who haunt a dwelling indifferent to, or hostile to, the presence of their companions in the flesh? |
39769 | As the horses were starting I called out to Miss Bates--"Tell me what''s going to win''The Cambridgeshire?''" |
39769 | As the housemaid prepared to follow her I said,"Am I the only person sleeping on this floor?" |
39769 | But was every one in the house clairaudient? |
39769 | But where? |
39769 | CHAPTER IX POMPEY AND THE DUCHESS Have animals souls? |
39769 | CHAPTER XVIII HAUNTED ROOMS How is it that one can"feel"a room is haunted? |
39769 | Could anything be more banal, more commonplace? |
39769 | Did he contrive to drop the"tip"into my mind, open at that moment and eager to catch the response? |
39769 | Did not the Christ warn his followers that the Path must be trodden more or less alone? |
39769 | Do pictures originate the artist? |
39769 | Do you wish to see me or my husband?" |
39769 | Every one is interested in getting rid of this weird disturbance, but how to do it? |
39769 | For what, after all, is a mystic, but one who enters into possession of the inner life? |
39769 | Had I not heard them stealthily beginning the ascent of the stairs, and grow louder the nearer they approached me? |
39769 | He sat up in bed and called out,"Who is it?" |
39769 | How do ghosts contrive to make such a noise? |
39769 | How few people realize that they have never seen themselves? |
39769 | How many can tell what they really look like? |
39769 | How often one is asked the question:"What is a medium?" |
39769 | How shall I describe the sight? |
39769 | How treat, as having right to equal power, the wise and the ignorant, the criminal and the saint? |
39769 | How well I know the look and the words accompanying it:"Are you Violet Tweedale, the novelist? |
39769 | How would she deal with the next story I am going to relate? |
39769 | How would this lady treat the"Castel a Mare"scream? |
39769 | How, she asked, could a firm social foundation ever be built up on this utter disregard of nature? |
39769 | Human beings having a rag and trying to scare the neighborhood? |
39769 | I sat down again and began to wonder if Lord Colin was ill, or was he dead, and why was he carrying lilacs? |
39769 | I was alone, but for how long would I remain alone? |
39769 | I wonder why? |
39769 | I would have laid hold of them and said,"Do you hear that knocking? |
39769 | If God be just and good, then what is the explanation of this hideous discrepancy in human lives? |
39769 | If God is love, who could reconcile with any comprehensive idea of justice and law in the world the lives and experiences of common humanity? |
39769 | If I had the courage to destroy them, what sort of condition would the bed be in after? |
39769 | If the whole household was in the room what could they do? |
39769 | In spite of this long friendship they were not the sort of people to whom I could have said,"Would you mind giving me another room? |
39769 | Is he always there?" |
39769 | Is it logical to suppose that there is no scheme of evolution for the immortal soul, in which it can preserve its individuality through the ages? |
39769 | Lady Sykes laughed and replied,"Which are they?" |
39769 | May it not be that this disembodied entity attached itself to my brother whilst he was out, and like a lost dog followed him home? |
39769 | My father had put his invariable question to the old woman,"Have you seen her again?" |
39769 | Nothing to be frightened of in that, is there?'' |
39769 | Now what does the subconsciousness contain? |
39769 | Now will you give me your promise never to mention this subject to me again? |
39769 | On the spur of the moment I said to my host,"Would n''t it be uncanny if we were to see a strange face looking down on us?" |
39769 | Only then will come the perplexed question: Where can I see in all this overwhelming misery the Divine hand of love and justice? |
39769 | Rats? |
39769 | She paused, and I ventured to ask,"But what sort of shock?" |
39769 | She set the tea down on a table and turned to me a scared face, as she answered by another question:"How ever did you find out that?" |
39769 | Should I let go? |
39769 | Supposing I did fall asleep, what would happen? |
39769 | That was so, responded the ladies, and the burly Duchess inquired if Madame ever gave racing tips, or lucky numbers for Monte Carlo? |
39769 | The hallucinations of a tired woman? |
39769 | The question seems to me to hang more on the query-- do such creatures actually exist, than on the argument did I, or did I not see them? |
39769 | Then I rang the bell, and when the butler entered the following dialogue took place:----"Who was the caller who has just been?" |
39769 | There are people to- day who ask,"Is this the end of the world?" |
39769 | Was murder taking place out there? |
39769 | Was some spirit interested in racing hovering near? |
39769 | Was this the real man and dog at last? |
39769 | Were my nerves playing tricks with me? |
39769 | What am I? |
39769 | What are those entities working for? |
39769 | What better shroud could any man ask for? |
39769 | What brought about the decline of those mighty civilizations whose monuments of antiquity seem to mock our pride? |
39769 | What can one do when paying a visit if one is ushered into a bedroom by one''s hostess which one instantly knows to be"unhealthful"? |
39769 | What could I make of the affair? |
39769 | What could Wynford have to say to any servant of Lord Strathmore? |
39769 | What do you make of it?" |
39769 | What explanation have I to offer? |
39769 | What had I better do-- nothing? |
39769 | What had prompted me to put that sudden question to the chambermaid? |
39769 | What have we achieved? |
39769 | What insidious disease brought about the fall of Rome? |
39769 | What is an aura? |
39769 | What is an elemental? |
39769 | What is the Divine Law lying behind this seeming hideous injustice? |
39769 | What is the grand apotheosis of each human life? |
39769 | What is this astral counterpart of man? |
39769 | What is this mysterious ego that thinks and acts? |
39769 | What of our records? |
39769 | What possible excuse could I make for cutting short my visit? |
39769 | What should suddenly change a man''s whole disposition the moment he"shuffles off this mortal coil"? |
39769 | What species of moth would he have declared them to be? |
39769 | What then will be termed the severance we now call death? |
39769 | What theory will explain this species of haunting which is quite common? |
39769 | What was I to do? |
39769 | What was I to do? |
39769 | What was about to follow? |
39769 | What was the power in you, Prince Charles Edward Stuart, that drew from countless women and men that wild unswerving devotion? |
39769 | What was the secret of Helena Petrovski Blavatsky''s instant success? |
39769 | What will become of all those grand old places in the future? |
39769 | What would our grandparents have thought of this means of turning an honest penny? |
39769 | What, I wonder, would he have made of that fat, gray flock sprinkling the bed? |
39769 | What, it may be asked, is the value to a woman of psychic experiences, whose reality may be convincing to herself, but never to others? |
39769 | When Christ asked,"Who has touched Me? |
39769 | When I was once more alone with Madame Blavatsky, she turned to me with a wry smile and said,"Would you have me throw pearls before swine?" |
39769 | When a break comes, perhaps through third- party treachery, there may come the sense of eternal severance, but is it eternal? |
39769 | When were you last in Sicily?" |
39769 | Where am I going? |
39769 | Where are they now? |
39769 | Where could they all have vanished to? |
39769 | Where did that answer come from? |
39769 | Where did you see him?" |
39769 | Where had I seen this man before? |
39769 | Where have I come from? |
39769 | Where have they been lying hidden during all those flying years? |
39769 | Where was she going? |
39769 | Where was that stealthy watcher, whose baleful eyes I felt were fixed upon me? |
39769 | Where will you be led: supposing you yield your will, would it ever be yours again?" |
39769 | Where? |
39769 | Which has the best chance of enduring in the future? |
39769 | Which made light of terrible hardships, which followed you faithfully through glen and corrie? |
39769 | Which? |
39769 | Who and what are they, and for what distant shores are they bound? |
39769 | Who can the"joker"be who is demoralizing his household, who has even dared to lock him into his own room? |
39769 | Who on earth could she be? |
39769 | Who was the player, and what was his instrument? |
39769 | Why could we not leave to- day?'' |
39769 | Why did she come to that house, with which, it is certain, she had no connection? |
39769 | Why did she only appear twice, and both times on the same date? |
39769 | Why do ghosts suddenly take possession of a house with which, in their incarnate days, they have had no connection? |
39769 | Why not? |
39769 | Why should n''t you see a ghost?" |
39769 | Will a member of the Psychical Society not try his luck? |
39769 | Will these ancient civilizations be remembered when the fame of modern nations has vanished utterly? |
39769 | Would I go and make inquiries? |
39769 | Would I suddenly awake to the fact that some one unseen was pulling off the bedclothes? |
39769 | Would one of the ladies suggest something she would like done? |
39769 | Would some one come and try to strangle me in the night? |
39769 | been on the Astral Plane lately?" |
39769 | do books originate the author? |
39769 | do n''t you know what that is?'' |
39769 | exclaimed Prince Arthur,"that letter is written by''The Pretender,''is n''t it?" |
39769 | heard things?" |
39769 | how do you think I am looking?'' |
39769 | who''d have thought it? |
17229 | Ah, but mine? |
17229 | And did it go up by the town, Or went it down by the lake? 17229 And is it thou, my little dead child, Come in from out the storm? |
17229 | And was it so strange a sight That you should go like a child Thus to leave me to wait, forgotten, By a passing sight beguiled? |
17229 | And was it the innermost heart of the bliss To find out so, what a wisdom love is? 17229 And was she some friend once cherished, Or was she a sister dead, That you left your own true lover Till the trysting hour had sped?" |
17229 | And what have you met on the road That kept you so long and so late? |
17229 | And who art thou? |
17229 | Are ye sleeping, Margaret? |
17229 | Are you awake, sweet William? |
17229 | But how can I gang the nicht, When I''m new come hame frae sea? 17229 Did life roll back its record, dear, And show, as they say it does, past things clear? |
17229 | How should I be fair and fine? 17229 How should I be white and red, So long, so long have I been dead?" |
17229 | Is there ony room at your head, Saunders? 17229 MY LOVE THAT WAS SO TRUE"ONE OUT- OF- DOORS: SARAH PIATT A ghost-- is he afraid to be a ghost? |
17229 | Mother, Mother, and art thou here? 17229 O is it blood or is it rust That makes the knife so red, Or is it but the red firelight That''s shining on the blade?" |
17229 | O is it with the pale gray gleam That comes before the dawn, Or are ye weary with the road That ye look so ghastly wan? |
17229 | O it''s three maidens, Marjorie, That once I promised to we d."What three things are these, sweet William, That stand close at your side? |
17229 | O love Louise, have you waited long? |
17229 | O mother, come and take your rest, Since Evan stays so late; If we leave the door unbarred for him, What need to sit and wait? |
17229 | Oh, Mrs. B., O Mrs. B., Are these your sorrow''s deeds, Already getting up a flame To burn your widows''weeds? 17229 Oh, do you breathe, lad, that your breast Seems not to rise and fall, And here upon my bosom prest There beats no heart at all?" |
17229 | Oh, false in life, oh, false in death, Wherever thy mad spirit be, Could it not come this night,she saith,"And keep tryst with me?" |
17229 | Oh, is it weed, or fish, or floating hair-- A tress of golden hair, A drownéd maiden''s hair Above the nets at sea? 17229 Oh, lad, what is it, lad, that drops Wet from your neck on mine? |
17229 | Oh, say, is that my father? 17229 Or was it a greater marvel to feel The perfect calm o''er the agony steal? |
17229 | Out with the boat there,someone cried,--"Will he never come? |
17229 | See now; I will listen with soul, not ear: What is the secret of dying, dear? 17229 The deer is couched among the fern, The bird sleeps on the tree; O what can keep my only son, He bides so long from me?" |
17229 | Then have ye laid the quarrel by That was''twixt him and you, And given each other pledge of faith Ye will be friends anew? |
17229 | Thy faith and troth thou sall na get, And our true love sall never twin, Until ye tell wha''comes o''women, Wot ye, who die in strong traivelling? |
17229 | Was it the infinite wonder of all That you ever could let life''s flower fall? 17229 Was the miracle greater to find how deep Beyond all dreams sank downward that sleep? |
17229 | What three things are these, sweet William, That lie close at thy feet? |
17229 | What three things are these, sweet William, That stand beside your head? |
17229 | Who are you, brother? |
17229 | Who speaks? |
17229 | Why standest thou here, dear daughter mine? 17229 Yet I''ll dry my tears for your sake: Why should I tease you, who can not please you Any more with the pains I take?" |
17229 | ''Twas I that stood to greet you on the churchyard pave( O fire of my heart''s grief, how could you never see?) |
17229 | ''Twas I that went beside you in the gray wood- mist( O core of my heart''s heart, how could you never know?) |
17229 | ''Twas the Bridegroom sat at the table- head, And the lights burned bright and clear--"Oh, who is there?" |
17229 | -- Sir Ingoldsby Bray, he said in his rage,"What news? |
17229 | --''What Baron or Squire, Or Knight of the shire Is half so good as a holy Friar?'' |
17229 | 6_ Tlot- tlot; tlot- tlot!_ Had they heard it? |
17229 | A LEGEND: MAY KENDALL Ay, an old story, yet it might Have truth in it-- who knows? |
17229 | A ghost? |
17229 | Am I forbid To cross the room? |
17229 | And art thou saved or art thou lost?" |
17229 | And do they turn and turn in fright, Those little feet, in so much night? |
17229 | And is it for himself she moans, Who is so far away? |
17229 | And one laid hands on his own two hands,"O Brother o''mine,"quoth he,"What can I give to you who live Like gift you gave to me? |
17229 | And she said,"Oh, what evil things Did tonight my senses take?" |
17229 | And the ghost is a whim of an ailing mind? |
17229 | And through the leagues above her She looked aghast and said:"What is this living ship that comes Where every ship is dead?" |
17229 | And why is the old dog wild with joy Who all day long made moan? |
17229 | Are you the old, old dead, Creeping through the long grass, To see the green leaves move And feel the light wind pass? |
17229 | At the creeping mists when the hour grew late? |
17229 | Because it was old Martin''s lot To be, not make, a decoration, Shall we then scorn him, having not His genius of appreciation? |
17229 | Blood will flow, and bullets will fly,-- Oh, where will be then young Hamilton Tighe?" |
17229 | But he is off to Galway town,( And who dare tell her this?) |
17229 | Can ony say Wha is it taks my laddie''s hounds At brak o''day? |
17229 | Canst hear the curlew''s whistle through the darkness wild and drear,-- How they''re calling, calling, calling, Pentruan of Porthmeor? |
17229 | Canst hear the curlews''whistle through thy dreamings dark and drear, How they''re crying, crying, crying, Pentruan of Porthmeor? |
17229 | DRAKE''S DRUM: HENRY NEWBOLT Drake he''s in his hammock an''a thousand miles away,( Capten, art tha sleepin''there below?) |
17229 | Did he enter? |
17229 | Did they love the leaves and wind, Grass and gardens long ago With a love that draws them home Where things grow? |
17229 | Drake he was a Devon man, an''ruled the Devon seas,( Capten, art tha sleepin''there below?) |
17229 | Drake he''s in his hammock till the great Armadas come,( Capten, art tha sleepin''there below?) |
17229 | FIREFLIES: LOUISE DRISCOLL What are you, fireflies, That come as daylight dies? |
17229 | Fain would I hear Of my dainty dear; How fares Dame Alice, my Lady gay?" |
17229 | For faith and charitie, Will ye gie me back my faith and troth That I gave once to thee?" |
17229 | HAUNTED PLACES THE LISTENERS: WALTER DE LA MARE"Is anybody there?" |
17229 | HAUNTED: DON MARQUIS A ghost is a freak of a sick man''s brain? |
17229 | How fares it with brothers and sisters thine?" |
17229 | How had so frail a thing the heart To journey where she trembled so? |
17229 | I gave them the passing word-- Ah, why did I give thee more? |
17229 | I pray it may be Molly''s self The banshee keens and cries, For who dare breathe the tale to her, Be it her man who dies? |
17229 | In the darkness and the dew Come the little, flying flames, Are they the forgotten dead, Without names? |
17229 | Is it thus that you keep your word? |
17229 | Is there ony room at your feet? |
17229 | Is there ony room at your side, Saunders? |
17229 | Lean deeper in the settle- corner lest she find you-- Find and grow fearsome, too afraid to stay: Do you hear the hinge of the oaken press behind you? |
17229 | Lord, Lord, wilt Thou not see? |
17229 | Love master''d fear-- her brow she cross''d;"How, Richard, hast thou sped? |
17229 | Martin? |
17229 | Methought he said,"In this far land, O, is it thus we meet? |
17229 | O, sisters, cross the bridge with me, My eyes are full of sand, What matter that I can not see, If ye take me by the hand?" |
17229 | Oh, when will Sir Ingoldsby Bray come back?'' |
17229 | Oh, who is this comes in Over her threshold stone? |
17229 | Oh, why did my sister hate me so That she would not let me rest? |
17229 | Or did they strangle him as he lay there, With the long scarlet scarf I used to wear? |
17229 | Or is he sleeping, my scarf round his head? |
17229 | Or is it Molly Reilly''s death She cries until the day? |
17229 | Or is it my true love Willy, From Scotland new come home?" |
17229 | Or is''t my brother John? |
17229 | Or the carven cherub- hands Which hold thy shield to the font? |
17229 | Or the gauntlets on the wall Keep evil from its onward course as the great tides rise and fall? |
17229 | Or the great wind, or an army, Or the waves of the wild sea? |
17229 | Out and spake Sir Ingoldsby Bray,"What news? |
17229 | Shall thy hatchment, mouldering grimly in yon church amid the sands, Stay trouble from thy household? |
17229 | She heard the laughter from the house, she heard the fiddle played; She called her dead love to her side-- why should she be afraid? |
17229 | She standeth before the Lord of all:"And may I go to my children small?" |
17229 | Since I from Smaylho''me tower have been, What did my ladye do?" |
17229 | Sir Ingoldsby Bray in his rage drew near, That little Foot- page, he blanch''d with fear;"Now where may the Prior of Abingdon lie? |
17229 | Some people ask:"What cruel chance Made Martin''s life so sad a story?" |
17229 | Step out three steps where Andrew stood,-- Why blanch thy cheeks for fear? |
17229 | THE FETCH: DORA SIGERSON SHORTER"What makes you so late at the tryst, What caused you so long to be? |
17229 | THE GHOST: WALTER DE LA MARE"Who knocks?" |
17229 | That''s the sob and drip of a leaky drain? |
17229 | The Bridegroom in his robe of white, Sat at the table- head--"Oh, who is that who moans without?" |
17229 | The Bridegroom shaded his eyes and looked And his face was bright to see--"What dost thou here at the Lord''s Supper With thy body''s sins?" |
17229 | The dead they are dead, they are out of the way? |
17229 | The delicate odor of mignonette, The ghost of a dead- and- gone bouquet, Is all that tells of her story; yet Could she think of a sweeter way? |
17229 | The ghostly vessels trembled From ruined stern to prow; What was this thing of terror That broke their vigil now? |
17229 | The horse- hoofs ringing clear--_ Tlot- tlot, tlot- tlot_ in the distance? |
17229 | The little live son he clung to her knee-- And frightened his eyes and dim--"Have ye never, my mother, a word for me?" |
17229 | The three ghosts on the sunless road, Spake each to one another,"Whence came that red burn on your foot No dust or ash may cover?" |
17229 | The three ghosts on the windless road, Spake each to one another,"Whence came that blood upon thy hand No other hand may cover?" |
17229 | Their thoughts are in the night and cold, Their tears are heavier than the clay, But who is this at the threshold So young and gay? |
17229 | Then why did ye whiten with fear to- day When ye heard a voice in the calling wind? |
17229 | Then why do you start and shiver so? |
17229 | There in thy breast,''Neath thy silken vest, What scroll is that, false Page, I see?" |
17229 | Though he told me, who will believe it was said? |
17229 | Was it a bird? |
17229 | Was it the trick of a sense o''erwrought With outward watching and inward fret? |
17229 | Were they deaf that they did not hear? |
17229 | Wha is it taks them hence? |
17229 | What are you, fireflies, That come as daylight dies? |
17229 | What do you do there? |
17229 | What flitted in the corridor Like a boy''s shape so dear and slight? |
17229 | What have you found?" |
17229 | What if his hair that brush''d her cheek Was stiff with frozen rime? |
17229 | What is it falling on my lips, My lad, that tastes like brine?" |
17229 | What moved, what stirred? |
17229 | What news from the bold Buccleuch?" |
17229 | What news, what news from Ancram fight? |
17229 | What news? |
17229 | What news? |
17229 | What news? |
17229 | What of the woeful notes that had wailed and fled? |
17229 | What rower plies a reckless oar With mist on flood and strand? |
17229 | What to- day of those pallid wraiths of the night? |
17229 | What was the joyous whisper heard? |
17229 | What was the laughter ran before? |
17229 | What''s a- bringin''of you back aboard?'' |
17229 | When my heart is sair for the sicht O''my lass that langs for me?" |
17229 | When will Sir Ingoldsby Bray come back?''" |
17229 | Where fain, fain, I wad sleep?" |
17229 | Wherefore does he haunt me so; Coming from the misty shadows Of a hundred years ago? |
17229 | Who are then these cavaliers? |
17229 | Who are those who ride so light, Soundless in the flaming light, Where Rheims burns, that was given By France to Mary, Queen of Heaven? |
17229 | Who is he, my midnight guest? |
17229 | Why did ye falter and look behind? |
17229 | Yet in the quiet evening hour What comes, oh, lighter than a bird? |
17229 | Yet, where the moonlight makes Nebulous silver pools A ghostly shape is cast-- Something unseen has stirred.... Was it a breeze that passed? |
17229 | do n''t you hear the bells?" |
17229 | he cried,"hast thou come back To say thou lov''st thy lover still?" |
17229 | he says,"Or are you waking presentlie? |
17229 | she said,"Or, William, are you asleep? |
17229 | she said;"Why dost thou join our ghostly fleet Arrayed in living red? |
17229 | the Bridegroom said,"Whose weary feet I hear?" |
17229 | what news from Ingoldsby Hall? |
17229 | what news? |
17229 | what sound is in the breeze Like the sighing of forest trees? |
15258 | A waterproof? |
15258 | A what? |
15258 | About what? |
15258 | And I am sure your husband is not? |
15258 | And after all we can manage very well without Ann, but what are we to do about Mrs. Mallet? 15258 And all this came to you through something of an evil nature?" |
15258 | And did the figure remain for any time? |
15258 | And how is the kitchen- maid? |
15258 | And it could convince you of nothing? |
15258 | And on your way back,said Lady Atherley,"would you mind the carriage stopping to leave some brandy at Monk''s? |
15258 | And she believes? |
15258 | And that--? |
15258 | And that? |
15258 | And then? |
15258 | And what do they say to that? |
15258 | And what may that be? |
15258 | And what was it like, daddy? |
15258 | And why, my dear, did you break your own excellent rule by mentioning it to her? |
15258 | And yet you believe in a good God? |
15258 | And you have no hope for anything beyond this? |
15258 | Anything wrong? |
15258 | But I suppose you would prefer to walk? |
15258 | But how could Aunt Eleanour see the ghost when there is not any such thing? |
15258 | But is it a Bible- class, or is it only called so? 15258 But she is in London, is she not, with Aunt Henrietta?" |
15258 | But tell me, why should this discovery of this other life make you so miserable? |
15258 | But the ghost itself? |
15258 | But, George, if the pink- room ceiling is not put right by Saturday, where shall we put Uncle Augustus? |
15258 | But, my dear Cecilia,said Lady Atherley, looking up from the work which she pursued beside a shaded lamp,"why did not Parkins pack it up herself?" |
15258 | But, pray, what were you doing in old Mallet''s domain? |
15258 | By the way,said Atherley that night after dinner, when Mrs. Molyneux was not present,"where are you going to put Cissy to- night? |
15258 | Can any one help me, I wonder? |
15258 | Can you tell me what you saw? |
15258 | Cecilia? 15258 Charles, what is the meaning of that crying or howling which seems to come from your end of the house?" |
15258 | Cissy is to keep the ghost at bay, is she? |
15258 | Cissy,said Atherley, his arms on the gate, his eyes staring straight towards the opposite horizon,"tell us about the ghost; were you frightened?" |
15258 | Did she ask to see me? |
15258 | Did she cook that omelette? 15258 Do n''t they get on, then?" |
15258 | Do n''t they? 15258 Do you ever see her now, Lindy? |
15258 | Do you know what an atheist is? |
15258 | Do you mean by a lost soul, a soul that is in never- ending torment? |
15258 | Do you mean poor people from the East End? |
15258 | Do you really and truly believe, Mrs. Mostyn, that this will be the fate of any single being? |
15258 | Do you think it is nearly half- past four, Aunt Eleanour? |
15258 | Even if they repent and desire to be reunited to Him? |
15258 | George, do you remember the day that grandmother died, when they all broke down and cried a little at dinner, all except Uncle Marmaduke? 15258 Have you bought the ponies?" |
15258 | Have you found life so wretched? |
15258 | Have you never met her? 15258 Have you seen it?" |
15258 | How can I prevent her going? 15258 How can you be so greedy?" |
15258 | I should like to meet her very much; would not you, Lindy? 15258 I suppose she is sure to come?" |
15258 | I thought you had gone to pay calls with Lady Atherley? |
15258 | In what else could I believe, even without revelation? 15258 Is it likely? |
15258 | Is not Uncle Augustus a fine- looking man? |
15258 | Is she clever? |
15258 | Is that Weald down there? |
15258 | Is that all? |
15258 | Is this your view of all supernatural manifestations? |
15258 | Jane, what am I to do with Sir George? 15258 Last night? |
15258 | Monk, I presume, is a sick labourer? |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, how do you worm things out of people? |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, why are you going? 15258 Mr. Lyndsay,"he said, in a voice as strangely altered as his whole appearance,"may I sit here a little-- till it is light? |
15258 | Mrs. Mallet says that Cissy is perfectly respectable? |
15258 | My dear Jane, you do n''t mean to tell me you are afraid of ghosts? |
15258 | Nothing to do with what did you say? |
15258 | Of any single being? 15258 Only what?" |
15258 | Pray, how do you know Mrs. Mallet is going? |
15258 | Pray, what is Mrs. Mallet herself doing under the circumstances? |
15258 | Surely, under these circumstances, the best thing would be to commit suicide? |
15258 | The future? 15258 The ghost?" |
15258 | The ghost? |
15258 | Then if a miracle could be proven, it would be no miracle to you? |
15258 | Then it gave a terrible answer: it said,''What is God?'' 15258 Well, does the ghost usually appear in a ruff or in armour?" |
15258 | Well, my darling boys, have you had your cream? |
15258 | Well, what is a ghost? |
15258 | What do you think of that? |
15258 | What do you want to do at the other end of the village? |
15258 | What does all this mean? 15258 What horrid woman? |
15258 | What is the story of the ghost? |
15258 | What knock, my darling? |
15258 | What on earth have you been saying to her? |
15258 | What on earth is the matter now? |
15258 | What others? 15258 What was it like?" |
15258 | When is she coming, then? |
15258 | Where did you pick up this viper? |
15258 | Where the others will be? |
15258 | Where was her father, then? |
15258 | Who can disbelieve it, Mrs. Mostyn? 15258 Who else has seen the ghost?" |
15258 | Who was that young man who bowed to the altar and crossed himself? |
15258 | Why are you angry with her? 15258 Why should you suppose I am going to church, either walking or driving?" |
15258 | Why, I thought you sent to Whitford for a plasterer yesterday? |
15258 | Why, what is the difference? |
15258 | Would she tell me? |
15258 | Would you like to see him, sir? |
15258 | Yes, think of Mrs. de Noël, Mrs. Mallet; what will she say if you leave her cousin to starve? |
15258 | You do n''t mean the lady in green velvet with the snuff- box? |
15258 | You do not believe in ghosts? |
15258 | You were in pain? |
15258 | ''And how do you know they have?'' |
15258 | ''And what part of the Bible are you studying now?'' |
15258 | ''Pray, have you ever played a game of Russian scandal?'' |
15258 | ''Send for Mrs. de Noël?'' |
15258 | ''Whatever shall I do?'' |
15258 | --''What did that matter?'' |
15258 | And I said in my dream--"Oh, Gladys, will it be always like this, or must we part again?" |
15258 | And I said:''Why did you not turn for help to God?'' |
15258 | And pray how have they practised their preaching?" |
15258 | And that is quite scientific and philosophical, is it not? |
15258 | Are they still as good in your river?" |
15258 | Are you going to make a bachelor of her too?" |
15258 | As you are so kind, will you carry this in?" |
15258 | Because she has seen the ghost?" |
15258 | But where are you going to put her? |
15258 | But who on earth was he talking about-- those wonderful people who do n''t care for money or success, or the best of everything generally? |
15258 | But whom do you think I picked up on the way home? |
15258 | But you must have heard about him, and about his sermons? |
15258 | By the bye, Cissy, did you see it?" |
15258 | CHAPTER V AUSTYN''S GOSPEL"He did not see the ghost, you say; he only felt it? |
15258 | Castleman, is it true that Mrs. Mallet talks of leaving us because of the ghost?" |
15258 | Did you say it wore a ruff and puffed sleeves?" |
15258 | Do n''t you know the dream you make up in a few moments about the knocking at the door when they call you in the morning? |
15258 | Do n''t you know the poor creatures in the Eastend sometimes drink just that they may not feel how hungry and how cold they are? |
15258 | Do we not feel it passing quicker and quicker every year? |
15258 | Do we not know that it is what will happen to the greatest number? |
15258 | Do you believe in ghosts?" |
15258 | Do you know what they are like?" |
15258 | Do you remember the line,''Bring with you airs from heaven or blasts from hell''? |
15258 | Do you wish me to propose to you again? |
15258 | For what does the Book say? |
15258 | George, how do you explain the miracle of her existence?" |
15258 | Glancing from side to side I saw, standing at the far end of the platform, two women; one of them was tall; could this be Mrs. de Noël? |
15258 | Has nothing which has happened to you, nothing you have ever seen or read or heard, tempted you to hope in something better?" |
15258 | Have we not a plasterer in the village?" |
15258 | Have you ever dreamt you were tramping through snow, and felt cold in consequence? |
15258 | Have you ever heard him preach? |
15258 | Have you seen the ghost yourself?" |
15258 | Her husband, thus checked in full flight, seemed to reel for a moment, but quickly recovering himself, asked resignedly:"What noise?" |
15258 | Here? |
15258 | How am I to recognise a divine messenger? |
15258 | How can I explain things if you are so flippant and impatient? |
15258 | How can I explain? |
15258 | How can I possibly explain things if you will not be serious?" |
15258 | How does it affect his case that centuries later such pain may be unknown?" |
15258 | How many more assurances do you expect from me? |
15258 | I cried:''Oh, why do you look at me like that? |
15258 | I might have found a fly for her, might I not?" |
15258 | I sat down on a chair near her and said--"Do you think it would help you to talk of what has frightened you?" |
15258 | If I was like this, if I was like that, what should I do? |
15258 | If a man of his age who takes no exercise will eat three square meals a day, what else can he expect? |
15258 | In the bachelor''s passage? |
15258 | In the postscript? |
15258 | Is it raining?" |
15258 | Is that the carriage coming back from Rood Warren? |
15258 | Is the life of the world and of outward things like that, if we live too much in it? |
15258 | Is there nothing but this dark void beyond when life falls away from us?" |
15258 | Is this sort of thing all you came in for?" |
15258 | It was perhaps this remark that led the Canon to ask, on the way to church--"Is it true that Mrs. de Noël attends a dissenting chapel?" |
15258 | Lindy, would you like to come with me?" |
15258 | Lyndsay?" |
15258 | Lyndsay?" |
15258 | Lyndsay?" |
15258 | Lyndsay?" |
15258 | Lyndsay?" |
15258 | Mallet?" |
15258 | Mallet?" |
15258 | Mallet?" |
15258 | Many times during breakfast Denis looked thoughtfully at his great- uncle, and at last inquired--"Do you preach very long sermons, Uncle Augustus?" |
15258 | Mostyn?" |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, did you ever see anything like it?" |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, do you hear? |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, have you ever realised what the place of torment will be like?" |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, why have you chosen that uncomfortable chair? |
15258 | Mr. Lyndsay, would you be so kind as to look out and tell the coachman to drive round by Monk''s? |
15258 | Not in the bachelor''s room, where your poor uncle made such a night of it? |
15258 | Now? |
15258 | Of course it has other great advantages, which I will explain later, like its cultivation of a sixth sense, for instance--""Do you mean common sense?" |
15258 | Oh, are you off already? |
15258 | Poor people are so afraid of distressing one; they often make themselves out better off than they really are, do n''t they?" |
15258 | Pray what are we to do for dinner?" |
15258 | She fell asleep praying, thinking, as she says; what was more natural or inevitable than that she should dream of the ghost? |
15258 | She paused for a few moments and then continued--"Perhaps you are one of those who do not believe in the punishment of sin?" |
15258 | The one question we have to ask ourselves is this:''"What does the Book say?"'' |
15258 | The question is, do you want pretty colour or do you want clear daylight?" |
15258 | This and something in the whole outline--"Mrs. de Noël?" |
15258 | Though, did not that pretty niece of Mrs. Molyneux''s say she used to see those spots floating before her eyes when a misfortune was impending?" |
15258 | To dine?" |
15258 | Was Atherley right after all? |
15258 | Was I rude? |
15258 | What are we to do when the fishing season begins? |
15258 | What are you up to, George?" |
15258 | What can make the plaster fall in this way?" |
15258 | What do these excited females imagine she is going to do?" |
15258 | What do you suppose it is to those-- by far the largest number, remember-- who have had the worst of it? |
15258 | What does science discover in the universe? |
15258 | What had so suddenly and so completely overthrown, not his own strength merely, but the defences of his faith? |
15258 | What if he could bring me to life again? |
15258 | What if he could kill me by an effort of the will? |
15258 | What if it were true? |
15258 | What is this?" |
15258 | What more can you ask, if you are fit to live?" |
15258 | What on earth is the matter?" |
15258 | Why do you look so strange?" |
15258 | Why not face the worst like men? |
15258 | Why should indigestion take that mental form?" |
15258 | Will you not rest here?" |
15258 | Would it not be only wise, prudent even, to give the preference to that? |
15258 | Would she tell us or not? |
15258 | Would you be offended if I said how deeply I felt for you?" |
15258 | You are ill?" |
15258 | You know the long gallery?" |
15258 | You will allow there is nothing supernatural in all that?" |
15258 | You will like that, wo n''t you? |
15258 | Your too sympathetic kitchen- maid?" |
15258 | and how many times a year does he have a birthday?" |
15258 | and may I ask what Ann, the kitchen- maid, is supposed to be doing?" |
15258 | not to saint or apostle, but to you, yourself? |
15258 | says she,''what if we was to see the ghost?'' |
15258 | that little room? |
15258 | what?" |
15258 | whatever do you think?'' |
15258 | why?" |
38060 | After all, Glorious Lutie,she reflected contentedly,"why do I ever live in anything bigger than a hall bedroom? |
38060 | And oh, why did n''t I have regular gold hair like yours instead of this garnet mane? 38060 And yet how can it be anything but a dream? |
38060 | As for your noise about quitting six weeks ago,he said,"how was I to know that the suckers were going to stop running? |
38060 | Batching it? |
38060 | Ben waiting long? |
38060 | But how am I going to know that you''re-- all right? |
38060 | But that reminds me,the woman came on another difficulty,"what''s to guarantee that you''ll stay with me?" |
38060 | Can you tell me the exact spot? |
38060 | Could you tell me, I wonder, about the rest of Miss Murray''s furniture? |
38060 | Did Miss Murray die in her room? |
38060 | Did n''t they get as much as they should have? |
38060 | Did you by chance live here when Lutetia Murray was alive? |
38060 | Did you ever hear of any house in the country that''s been empty for a number of years that worn''t considered haunted? |
38060 | Did you see Mr. Lewis there? |
38060 | Do you feel all right now? |
38060 | Do you know of any place where a girl who''s a stranger in New York may find a cheap and respectable lodging? |
38060 | Do you mean to tell me I fainted? |
38060 | Do you remember who bought it? 38060 Do you think I could buy any of those things back?" |
38060 | Does it still belong in the Murray family? |
38060 | Does she want me to stay_ here_ or go_ there_? |
38060 | Er-- did you make out the signature on this? |
38060 | Glorious Lutie? |
38060 | Has anybody ever lived in the Murray place since the family left? |
38060 | Have I been out long? |
38060 | Have you a shovel handy? |
38060 | Have you ever noticed how satisfactory little beasties are? 38060 Have you seen the Dew Pond yet?" |
38060 | How did the rumor get about that the place was haunted, then? |
38060 | How did you know this was her room? |
38060 | How did you manage that exactly? |
38060 | How did you spread it? |
38060 | How soon can we go to the Murray place? |
38060 | How''d you know? |
38060 | How_ did_ they find me? 38060 I mean, what do you do with your leisure?" |
38060 | I wonder what she wants? |
38060 | I wonder what that post was for? |
38060 | If_ here_, what does she want me to do? 38060 Is it to let?" |
38060 | Is it true that I spent two years with the French Army? 38060 Is n''t it lucky I didn''t-- in my weakness-- say no?" |
38060 | Is n''t this a wonderful world? |
38060 | It is n''t occupied, you say? |
38060 | It''s the old game, is n''t it? |
38060 | May I leave this suitcase here? 38060 Meanin''--?" |
38060 | Meaning? |
38060 | Mike,he said,"you''re certain about your tip on the fly cops?" |
38060 | Miss Ayer,Warner went on after a pause,"you read that letter-- the one you handed to me this morning?" |
38060 | Mr. Lindsay-- that time you fainted when you first saw me, setting out there on the door- stone, you remember--? |
38060 | Oh, Lutetia, Lutetia, how could you, how could you? |
38060 | Oh, Mr. Lindsay, are n''t you heartbroken now that it is all over? 38060 Oh, Mrs. Spash,"he suggested,"would you be so good as to take me through this house? |
38060 | Oh, what was it you were going to tell me, Susannah,Eloise interrupted suddenly,"just before we left the Attic?" |
38060 | Oh,asked Mr. Warner, carelessly, casually,"did you have a pleasant evening?" |
38060 | Oh,asked blue dress,"did you sublet your room?" |
38060 | Suppose she beats it? |
38060 | Suppose,continued Warner in the manner of one weighing every chance,"she goes with her troubles to some wise guy?" |
38060 | That so? |
38060 | The old house with the fanlight entrance, is n''t it? 38060 There,"concluded Warner,"that''s the layout, is n''t it?" |
38060 | Was she very much in love with Lewis? |
38060 | Watch me, wo n''t you? 38060 Well, Mike and I can shadow her, ca n''t we?" |
38060 | Well, of course--Ernestine was beginning,"but what''s the use?" |
38060 | Well, were n''t there any heirs? |
38060 | Well, who was you expecting to see? |
38060 | Well, why has n''t it let or sold? |
38060 | What I would like to ask you,Mr. Phillips broke in,"does war seem such a pretty thing to you, young man, after you''ve seen a little of it? |
38060 | What are you doing here? |
38060 | What became of that cousin? |
38060 | What became of the little girl? |
38060 | What do they want? 38060 What is happening? |
38060 | What would you say, Joe? 38060 What''s Broadway got on Market Street?" |
38060 | What''s the matter, Sue? |
38060 | When can I see you?... 38060 Where did Miss Murray get all these toys?" |
38060 | Where did she write? |
38060 | Where is he? |
38060 | Where is she now? |
38060 | Where is the Murray place? |
38060 | Who are you? |
38060 | Who owns it now? |
38060 | Who took them? |
38060 | Why do they say it''s haunted? |
38060 | Why do we launder our tresses, I ask you, Glorious Lutie? |
38060 | Why, when did they bring them in from the Dew Pond? |
38060 | Wo n''t you have a seat? |
38060 | Yes, why? |
38060 | You was n''t thinking of hiring the place, was you? |
38060 | You wish me to see that he apologizes? |
38060 | *****"What rent do they ask for the Murray house?" |
38060 | After a while,"What''s become of that child?" |
38060 | After an instant,"How did you happen to be on the doorstep?" |
38060 | All except the little girl--""Do you see the little girl?" |
38060 | And how did you come to know Mrs. Spash? |
38060 | And my painted bedroom set? |
38060 | And of all his life here? |
38060 | And oh, dear Mrs. Spash-- do you remember how sometimes I used to call you Mrs. Splash? |
38060 | And that''s the only thing that counts, is n''t it?" |
38060 | And the sideboard there? |
38060 | And the six- legged highboy? |
38060 | And then suddenly that revolver which came from-- where? |
38060 | And what made you so heavenly good as to bring me here? |
38060 | And when did the idea of writing Glorious Lutie''s-- my aunt''s-- biography occur to you? |
38060 | And why did she keep repeating,"Number Fifty- seven and a Half, Washington Square, top floor, key under the rug?" |
38060 | And,''having fallen in love with me instantly,''how soon may I ask you to marry me?''" |
38060 | Another pause; and then Mr. Warner asked:"Would you mind waiting here for just a few moments before you make that decision final?" |
38060 | Are you getting all this, Spink? |
38060 | Are you my guardian angel, I wonder?" |
38060 | As I stood there, shading my candle from the draft, that door opened and there emerged from the room-- what do you suppose? |
38060 | As indeed, why should he? |
38060 | But after Mr. Lewis came-- Queer, worn''t it? |
38060 | But again where? |
38060 | But could she put it through? |
38060 | But do I? |
38060 | But do n''t you think--_don''t_ you think-- they stopped the war too soon? |
38060 | But first of all, how did you know that, now being Susannah Ayer, I was formerly Susannah Delano?" |
38060 | But how? |
38060 | But how? |
38060 | But of what? |
38060 | But what does she want me to do? |
38060 | But where could she go-- when-- how? |
38060 | But will you tell me how you_ do_ happen to be Susannah Ayer, when you were formerly Susannah Delano, alias Cherry-- or Cherie?" |
38060 | By the way, have you any pictures of Lutetia? |
38060 | Ca n''t you speak to me?" |
38060 | Could n''t I sit up now?" |
38060 | Did I ever fly? |
38060 | Did I hear the ghost of a click? |
38060 | Did she know of a good boarding- house in which to spend a month? |
38060 | Did you notice that part of the letter where he says that for the last year or two his mind has been full of her? |
38060 | Do n''t that sound pretty good to you? |
38060 | Do n''t you think so?" |
38060 | Do you know what that means? |
38060 | Do you mind if we go now? |
38060 | Do you remember my writing you that the chamber, just back of the one I occupy, must have been the room of a child-- Lutetia''s little niece? |
38060 | Do you think, Glorious Lutie, when I reach your age, I shall be as good- looking as you?" |
38060 | Do you understand? |
38060 | Do you want me to go to New York?" |
38060 | Early in the morning, Mr. Warner said:"Miss Ayer, I wonder if you can do a favor for us?" |
38060 | George Jennings died of the flu in Paris-- see that big blonde over there, Dave? |
38060 | Had her ruse fully succeeded-- would they mount at once to Room 9, fifth floor? |
38060 | Had she the nerve? |
38060 | Had she the strength? |
38060 | Have we not in this office paid you every possible respect?" |
38060 | Have you a bit of paper? |
38060 | Have you been upstairs in the barn?" |
38060 | Have you ever watched a bee fly? |
38060 | He should have his hat on-- or was she seeing through his hat? |
38060 | He turned abruptly with a--"Hello, old top, what do you want?" |
38060 | How are you, Ernestine?" |
38060 | How can I ever thank them enough? |
38060 | How can he put over what he wants to say?" |
38060 | How did I get back here? |
38060 | How did they do it? |
38060 | How did you find me? |
38060 | How did you happen to come here? |
38060 | How did you know who I was? |
38060 | How much is Cowler good for?" |
38060 | How soon before you''ll want to start back?" |
38060 | How soon would you like to go in, say?" |
38060 | How the devil_ can_ you describe a ghost? |
38060 | How to find them?" |
38060 | How, then, might she find a room and a hiding- place? |
38060 | I do want as soon as possible to see Mr. Lindsay and his cousin-- Miss Stockbridge, did you say? |
38060 | I guess I''ve never before even tried to guess what it means to be trapped?" |
38060 | I mean-- what is the next move? |
38060 | I suppose that is a great surprise to you?" |
38060 | I wonder if Byan is still in his room? |
38060 | I wonder what powder you did use? |
38060 | I wonder what your dresses were like? |
38060 | If I could have said anything it would have been:"What do you want of me, you handsome old beggar?" |
38060 | If I do n''t.... What do you suppose I''ve done? |
38060 | If the dead, who? |
38060 | If the living, who? |
38060 | If_ there_, what does she want me to do_ there_? |
38060 | If_ there_--where is_ there_? |
38060 | Is her errand concerned with the living or the dead? |
38060 | Is it true that I served two more with the American Army? |
38060 | Is there anyone here to drive me?" |
38060 | It was obvious that conflicting comments fought for expression, but all he managed to say-- and ineptly enough-- was:"Oh, you knew her, then?" |
38060 | It''s the key house of New York, is n''t it? |
38060 | Mary Merle used to have a ducky little flat on the second floor, did n''t she?" |
38060 | May I offer you my Rolls- Royce to bring you back and forth to work? |
38060 | May I see you alone for a moment?" |
38060 | Monroe?" |
38060 | Mrs. Spash asked this as casually as though she had said,"Has the postman been here this morning?" |
38060 | Now what in the name of heaven is the next move?" |
38060 | Now why not use a little sense? |
38060 | Now will you promise me that you''ll take the nine train tomorrow?" |
38060 | Now would n''t she? |
38060 | Oh, by the way, Mrs. Spash,"Lindsay veered as though remembering suddenly something he had forgotten,"do other people see them?" |
38060 | One place, I comes across several scores of_ poilus_--on their_ permissions_ similar-- squatting on the ground and doing-- what do you suppose? |
38060 | Or am I just piercing another dimension?" |
38060 | Or do you guess? |
38060 | Putty Doane was taken prisoner by the Germans at-- Oh, see that gang of up- towners-- aren''t they snippy and patronizing and silly? |
38060 | Queer idea, worn''t it?" |
38060 | She had a disposition to stay there-- why was she so weak? |
38060 | Somebody''s bound to get it-- and why not we? |
38060 | Spink, you have never heard of a jovial ghost, have you? |
38060 | That letter-- what did it mean? |
38060 | That''s very pathetic, is n''t it? |
38060 | Then I''ll go into-- what? |
38060 | They do n''t lay traps for you and try to put you in a tortured position that you ca n''t wriggle out of?" |
38060 | Try to get the wonder, the magic, the terror, the touch now and then of horror, but above all the fierce thrill-- of living with a family of ghosts? |
38060 | VI"How did they find me, Glorious Lutie?" |
38060 | Was it anxiety? |
38060 | Was it true? |
38060 | What are you doing with yourself, these days, Gratia?" |
38060 | What did we want with this royal suite here, and ours a correspondence game? |
38060 | What do we split if we stop today? |
38060 | What does_ she_ want?" |
38060 | What''s the news, Gratia? |
38060 | What, Glorious Lutie, tell me what? |
38060 | When do you propose to bring out this new edition, and how do you account for that recent demand for her? |
38060 | Where did you find the little Chinese toys? |
38060 | Where does one go after dinner? |
38060 | Where shall I begin?" |
38060 | Where to find them? |
38060 | Which of these six was it?" |
38060 | Who better qualified than Lutetia''s own niece? |
38060 | Who''d ever thought you''d turn out-- you big rough- neck you-- to be a collector of antiques? |
38060 | Why could she see that? |
38060 | Why did n''t you tell me that fish were interesting? |
38060 | Why do n''t we trust our intuitions? |
38060 | Why have they put the bureau over there?" |
38060 | Why was there effort about floating? |
38060 | Will you keep my trunk until I send for it? |
38060 | With a flourish, the waiter set the dinner- card before her, asking:"What will you have next, Madame?" |
38060 | Wonderful old place, is n''t it?" |
38060 | Worn''t that cute? |
38060 | Would n''t you prefer to make yourself presentable for the street and then join us there-- in about ten minutes, say?" |
38060 | Would you be willing to steer him through all this? |
38060 | You ai n''t an invalid, are you?" |
38060 | You know about that?" |
38060 | You like your work, do n''t you?" |
38060 | You''ve got the old dope worked up to the idea she''s interested in him, have n''t you? |
38060 | You''ve seen the slave quarters and the whipping- post upstairs?" |
38060 | he interrogated the empty air,"and what do you want? |
9312 | Afraid of him? 9312 After all, what does life in the other world amount to? |
9312 | Ah, well, there was no-- you''ll excuse me, I am sure-- no former lover in the case, was there? |
9312 | Ah,said Brenton, when he saw the Frenchman,"have you any news for me?" |
9312 | Ah,said that official, when they met,"you got your letter, did you? |
9312 | Ah,said the other,"in reference to what?" |
9312 | Alice,cried Stratton, impulsively grasping her hand in both of his,"do n''t you think you would like Chicago as a place of residence?" |
9312 | All? |
9312 | And I suppose, poor woman, she will furnish an interesting article for the paper? |
9312 | And are you sure she is the criminal? |
9312 | And have you not had experience enough? |
9312 | And how about heaven and hell? |
9312 | And how did you get in here? |
9312 | And if I wish to find you here, how do I set about it? |
9312 | And may not Stephen Roland be an innocent person? |
9312 | And might I ask what that motive is, or was? |
9312 | And what do you do with a man like that? |
9312 | And what is his case? |
9312 | And where is that, pray? |
9312 | And who are you? |
9312 | Anything more about the convention, George? |
9312 | Are n''t you afraid that_ you_ may find it a serious one? |
9312 | Are there matters here, then, that you think could be improved? |
9312 | Are those localities all a myth? 9312 Are you sure you discharged him before it was too late?" |
9312 | But do n''t you see,argued Brenton,"that all the time spent on his present investigation is so much time lost? |
9312 | Can we reach any of those places before the day is over? |
9312 | Can we see him for a few moments? |
9312 | Cincinnati, eh? 9312 Come, come,"said the man who stood beside Brenton,"have n''t you had enough of this? |
9312 | Could you give me the name of each of them? |
9312 | Dead? 9312 Did he object to any that were there?" |
9312 | Did you ever see anything in your husband''s actions that would lead you to think him a man who might have contemplated suicide? |
9312 | Did you leave your affairs in reasonably good order? |
9312 | Did you take the morphia with you, doctor? |
9312 | Do n''t you think, however, that we had better stay with her until she_ does_ confess? 9312 Do you find the prisoner guilty or not guilty?" |
9312 | Do you have names in this spirit- land? |
9312 | Do you imagine Roland had anything to do with it? |
9312 | Do you know any one who is interested in that sort of thing? 9312 Do you know if he had any enemy who might wish his death?" |
9312 | Do you know this writing? |
9312 | Do you mean to say,said Stratton,"that there is nothing but quinine in those capsules?" |
9312 | Do you think they will? |
9312 | Do? 9312 Done, my dear fellow? |
9312 | Even if she does, what of it? 9312 Generous?" |
9312 | Gentlemen of the jury,was the question,"have you agreed upon a verdict?" |
9312 | Had he ever spoken to you on the subject of suicide? |
9312 | Have n''t I told you time and again,answered Brenton, indignantly,"that it was a mistake? |
9312 | Have you ever heard him speak of anybody in a spirit of enmity? |
9312 | Have you looked into that Cincinnati case at all? |
9312 | He must have been a warm friend of yours? |
9312 | How can you talk in that cold- blooded way? |
9312 | How did the coffee cup reach him? |
9312 | How did_ you_ get in here? |
9312 | How do you know it? |
9312 | How long have you been married? |
9312 | How long have you been with us, and how do you like the country? |
9312 | How many people were there at the dinner? |
9312 | How much time do you give me? |
9312 | How would London do? |
9312 | How would Venice do? |
9312 | I am what? |
9312 | I have met a bluff before,he said carelessly;"but I should like to know what makes you think that such is our defence?" |
9312 | I? 9312 If you have not, will you undertake to answer any questions I shall ask you, and not take offence if the questions seem to be personal ones?" |
9312 | In Cincinnati? |
9312 | Individually or collectively? |
9312 | Is there, then,asked Brenton,"no communication between this world and the one that I have given up?" |
9312 | Is this a Chicago joke? |
9312 | It passed through no other hands, then? |
9312 | Let me see, this is the last day of the convention, is n''t it? 9312 May I ask how you arrived at that conclusion?" |
9312 | May I ask, then, what the defence is? |
9312 | May we look at that book? |
9312 | Mean? 9312 Much more of this, George?" |
9312 | My dear Mrs. Brenton,began Roland,"I hope you are feeling better to- day? |
9312 | My dear sir, do you not realize that I could knock you down or shoot you dead for what you have done, and be perfectly justified in doing so? |
9312 | My dear sir,said Speed,"do n''t you see he is just the man we want? |
9312 | My dear,said William Brenton to his wife,"do you think I shall be missed if I go upstairs for a while? |
9312 | Never had any quarrel? |
9312 | Novelist? 9312 Now, between ourselves, what do you think of the case?" |
9312 | Now, forgive me if I ask you if you have ever had any trouble with your husband? |
9312 | Overrate him, sir? 9312 Perhaps I shall,"said Brenton, with a sigh;"but, meanwhile, what am I to do with myself? |
9312 | Really? |
9312 | Sarah,she cried,"have I been dreaming, or is your master dead?" |
9312 | Seem? 9312 She appeared at the inquest, of course?" |
9312 | Still, why not try it with any of the passers- by? |
9312 | Suppose we open this package? |
9312 | Sure of it? 9312 Sure of that?" |
9312 | Taking it all in all,said Brenton,"do you think the spirit- land is to be preferred to the one we have left?" |
9312 | The second Chicago? |
9312 | Then how can you be sure she is not guilty? |
9312 | Then who is the guilty person? |
9312 | Then who is the person? |
9312 | Then you are not offended at what I have said? |
9312 | Then you have not made any discovery? |
9312 | Then you still believe that I am the murderer of William Brenton? |
9312 | Think it? 9312 Time?" |
9312 | Want to go down there, George? |
9312 | Was he ever queer in his actions? 9312 Was his name Stephen Roland?" |
9312 | Was morphia found in the coffee cup afterwards? |
9312 | Was the gentleman in Lucerne? |
9312 | Was your husband of a jealous disposition? |
9312 | Well, old man,he said,"anything new?" |
9312 | Well,said Speed,"you wo n''t come with me, then? |
9312 | Were your husband''s business affairs in good condition at the time of his death? |
9312 | What Cincinnati case? |
9312 | What do you know of our defence? |
9312 | What do you mean? |
9312 | What do you think might turn up? |
9312 | What have you done? |
9312 | What have you found out? |
9312 | What makes you think so? |
9312 | What next? 9312 What other way?" |
9312 | What part of the country are you from? |
9312 | What sort of a looking girl is Jane Morton? |
9312 | What was her name? |
9312 | What would old Ferris say_ now_, eh? |
9312 | What, is he dead, then? |
9312 | When did he leave? |
9312 | When you were in the world did you ever see a child cry over a broken toy? 9312 Where are you going?" |
9312 | Where can we find him? |
9312 | Where is she now, do you know? |
9312 | Who is John? |
9312 | Who is that? 9312 Who poured out that cup of coffee?" |
9312 | Who poured out the coffee he drank that night? |
9312 | Who sat next your husband at the head of the table? |
9312 | Who was the servant? |
9312 | Whom do you think Stratton suspects of the crime? 9312 Why are you so certain on that point?" |
9312 | Why do you not think so? |
9312 | Why, I thought you said I was a dead man? |
9312 | Why, of course he will,answered Speed, indignantly;"has n''t he given him his word that he will?" |
9312 | Why, what is there wrong about that? |
9312 | Why, what was her motive? |
9312 | Why, you are not afraid of him, are you? |
9312 | Will you let me look at that page? |
9312 | Will you tell me this-- was it about a gentleman? |
9312 | Will you tell me what it was about? |
9312 | Will,she said dreamily,"are you still asleep?" |
9312 | Yes, but what do you think of her guilt or innocence? |
9312 | You do n''t know about what time it was, do you? 9312 You evidently do not believe me?" |
9312 | You had another disagreement with him before, if I might term it so, had you not? |
9312 | You had no disagreement shortly before the dinner? |
9312 | You have no objection, have you, to going with me? |
9312 | You keep a book, of course, of all the prescriptions sent out? |
9312 | You see this portrait? |
9312 | You think nothing, then, of the disgrace of such a death-- of the bitter injustice of it? |
9312 | You were a reasonably good husband, I suppose? 9312 You were at one end of the table and he at the other, I suppose?" |
9312 | You will admit that you disliked Brenton? |
9312 | You will not tell him? |
9312 | You, perhaps, will admit that you are interested in her now? |
9312 | You_ believe_; are n''t you sure? |
9312 | _ Sure_ of it? |
9312 | *****"Did you know her husband?" |
9312 | After a talk on that momentous question, and when George Stratton held her hand and said good- bye, she asked him--"When do you go to Chicago?" |
9312 | Am I not right?" |
9312 | Am I right?" |
9312 | Am I right?" |
9312 | An ordinary policeman, or some one from the central office? |
9312 | And what is the piece of business?" |
9312 | Are you busy just now?" |
9312 | Are you sorry I am going?" |
9312 | But before you lay out any work for yourself, let me ask you if there is not some interesting part of the world that you would like to visit?" |
9312 | But what do you say to Naples, or Japan, or, if you do n''t wish to go out of the United States, Yellowstone Park?" |
9312 | By the way, Speed, what do you think of that line of defence?" |
9312 | Did n''t I say George Stratton was the brightest newspaper man in Chicago? |
9312 | Did the sight pain you to any extent? |
9312 | Did the simple griefs of childhood carry any deep and lasting consternation to the mind of a grown- up man? |
9312 | Did you find who the physician was that signed the certificate?" |
9312 | Did you not know that a new toy could be purchased that would quite obliterate all thoughts of the other? |
9312 | Did you not know that?" |
9312 | Did you wish to see me professionally?" |
9312 | Do n''t you appreciate the situation? |
9312 | Do n''t you see that?" |
9312 | Do n''t you see the force of that?" |
9312 | Do n''t you want the matter ferreted out at all?" |
9312 | Do you care to see any one?" |
9312 | Do you deny any of the facts I have recited?" |
9312 | Do you follow me?" |
9312 | Do you happen to know,"said Stratton, turning to the sheriff,"how they came to that conclusion?" |
9312 | Do you know_ anything_ about her?" |
9312 | Do you remember the girl Jane Morton?" |
9312 | Do you think Stratton will show the article to Brown if he gets what you call a scoop or a beat?" |
9312 | Do you want to get a message to anybody?" |
9312 | Finally she answered, dreamily--"Roland? |
9312 | Guilty of what?" |
9312 | Guilty of what?"] |
9312 | Have the newspapers got on to the fact?" |
9312 | Have you anything to propose?" |
9312 | Have you been ill? |
9312 | Have you got any light on the subject?" |
9312 | I admit that it is a grievance to me, as an old newspaper man, to see the number of scoops I could have on my esteemed contemporaries, but--""Scoop? |
9312 | I hope he was not seriously hurt?" |
9312 | I presume you have no objection at all to co- operate with me?" |
9312 | I presume you have them pretty well arranged in your own mind?" |
9312 | I said to him in your presence,''Did you poison yourself?'' |
9312 | I suppose they all got on to it at the same time?" |
9312 | I suppose you are engaged to be married?" |
9312 | If it were true that he was dead, he said to himself, was not the plan outlined for him by Ferris very much the wiser course to adopt? |
9312 | In short, did you ever notice anything about him that would lead you to doubt his sanity? |
9312 | Is n''t the lawyer going to see the letter before it is sent to the paper?" |
9312 | Is such communication possible?" |
9312 | Is there nothing of punishment and nothing of reward in this spirit- land?" |
9312 | Just let me see the last two pages, will you?" |
9312 | May she not change her mind?" |
9312 | My dear sir, did you administer this poison to yourself?" |
9312 | Now what were the circumstances, again?" |
9312 | Now where shall we spend the day?" |
9312 | Now, as you have practically taken charge of this case, why do n''t you go and see him?" |
9312 | Now, ca n''t you tell her I knew her husband, or something of that sort? |
9312 | Now, can you give us a little of your time? |
9312 | Now, what do you say to our trying whether or not we can influence Jane Morton to do what she ought to do, and confess her crime?" |
9312 | Now, what is the thing that I should do if I were in Cincinnati? |
9312 | Now, what is your trouble? |
9312 | Now, what were the circumstances of this crime? |
9312 | Now, who could have placed that poison in his cup of coffee? |
9312 | Now-- you''ll excuse me if I am frank-- your wife was the one who benefited most by your death, was she not?" |
9312 | Of course, you do not think it strong enough to convict a man of such a serious crime as murder?" |
9312 | Once, when the music had ceased for a time, Alice tiptoed into the room, and said in a quiet voice--"How are you feeling, Will? |
9312 | One of your victims, Ferris?" |
9312 | Rather generous with the cash?" |
9312 | She flung herself terror- stricken on the bed, after her room door was bolted, and cried,''Oh, why did I do it? |
9312 | Should we, then, be prepared to say that circumstantial evidence will not be taken by an American jury as ground for the conviction of a murderer? |
9312 | Stratton?" |
9312 | Suppose that what you would call the worst should happen-- suppose she is hanged-- what then?" |
9312 | The novelist?" |
9312 | Then he said eagerly--"When you return, or if I go over there to see you after a year or two, may I ask you that question again?" |
9312 | Then in other parts of the paper there were little items similar to this--"If Mrs. Brenton did not poison her husband, then who did?" |
9312 | Then, placing his hand on the bell, he continued--"Whom shall I send for? |
9312 | Was it to William Brenton?" |
9312 | What do you say to that bit of evidence added to the circumstantial chain which you say is ingenious?" |
9312 | What is a beat?" |
9312 | What is that?" |
9312 | What is the matter with you? |
9312 | What month or week?" |
9312 | What next?" |
9312 | What, then, can they learn by talking with her, or what good can they do her with their minds already prejudiced against her? |
9312 | When the sheriff and the newspaper man reached the other room, the former said--"Well, what do you think?" |
9312 | Why in the world should she want to poison me, when she had all my wealth at her command as it was?" |
9312 | Why, do n''t you see it? |
9312 | Will you bring him to me?" |
9312 | Will you come?" |
9312 | Wo n''t you tell her that I have come with a letter from her own lawyers? |
9312 | Wondering for a moment how he got there, and thinking that after all it was a dream, he said--"What is useless? |
9312 | You did not feel ill before last night, did you?" |
9312 | You got the letter, though, did you?" |
9312 | You know Roland; what do you think of him?" |
9312 | You never were in the newspaper business? |
9312 | You will admit also that you were-- well, how shall I put it?--let us say, interested in his wife before her marriage?" |
9312 | You will promise to come here and see me with him, will you not?" |
9312 | [ Illustration:"Do you think I shall be missed?"] |
9312 | [ Illustration:"How much time do you give me?"] |
9312 | [ Illustration:"Oh, why did I do it?"] |
9312 | and can you give me an introduction to him?" |
9312 | any better?" |
9312 | cried Brenton,"do you call it a trivial thing that a woman is in danger of her life for a crime which she never committed?" |
9312 | cried Brenton,"is locomotion so easy as that?" |
9312 | cried Mrs. Brenton, a strange fear coming over her as she stared at the girl;"guilty of_ what_?" |
9312 | cried Speed;"who is she?" |
9312 | did Brown say anything about the defence? |
9312 | he cried;"who got the thirty grains of morphia?" |
9312 | said Ferris;"doing him any good?" |
9312 | said Mrs. Brenton, sympathetically,"was that_ all_?" |
9312 | said Speed to Brenton, triumphantly,"what do you think of_ that_? |
9312 | who was to profit by your death?" |
9312 | why did I do it? |
44397 | ''Are you quite sure?'' 44397 ''Been to Helvore?'' |
44397 | ''But how about the speed with which the thing darted at us,''Parminter said,''and the feeling we all had that it possessed innumerable legs? 44397 ''But why did the monk crawl and make such a queer rattling noise?'' |
44397 | ''How are you, old chap?'' 44397 ''How dare you?'' |
44397 | ''Possibly,''Parminter said,''but how about the gas? 44397 ''Sounded like sighing, groaning, and so on?'' |
44397 | ''Then why the ghost?'' 44397 ''Then you feel certain the hauntings have now ceased?'' |
44397 | ''They have n''t seen anything?'' 44397 ''Well, how do you account for it?'' |
44397 | ''Where?'' 44397 ''Who are you?'' |
44397 | ''Who is it this time?'' 44397 ''Who is it?'' |
44397 | ''Will you come with me?'' 44397 ''You know the wood?'' |
44397 | A rum,John said at length,"or a gin? |
44397 | Am I? |
44397 | And big rents? |
44397 | And in each case death had taken place in bed? |
44397 | And in the event of your death,I remarked,"to whom do the title and estates revert?" |
44397 | And none of these symptoms were noticeable in the deceased? |
44397 | And the children? |
44397 | And what are your plans with regard to the Caspar Beeches? |
44397 | And you''ve forgiven me, John? |
44397 | And you''ve forgiven me? 44397 Anything the matter?" |
44397 | Are the Parrys of the ordinary servant class? |
44397 | But why should you haunt this place at all? |
44397 | But why this mystery? 44397 Ca n''t you appear to us with your head on,"Brown asked,"just as you were in your lifetime?" |
44397 | Can I be of any service to you? |
44397 | Can I ever forget it? 44397 Could the poison have been self- inflicted? |
44397 | Did you have the same doctor to all three of your relatives after their deaths had been discovered? |
44397 | Do I recollect it? |
44397 | Do you like them? |
44397 | Do you mean to tell me,Casson said"that neither of you saw a man in a blazer pass here just now?" |
44397 | Do you think of residing there? |
44397 | God''s truth, man, what do you mean by such a statement? |
44397 | Had he any children? |
44397 | Has all the furniture been taken away? |
44397 | Has the ghost been too much for you? |
44397 | Have the Parrys been with you long? |
44397 | Have you any idea what killed your late master and mistress? |
44397 | Have you come to consult me professionally? |
44397 | Have you no theory? |
44397 | Have you seen him? |
44397 | He ai n''t done nothing to you, has he? |
44397 | How did you come to suspect the clock, Vane? |
44397 | I did not answer her at once, but let her ramble on, till she suddenly turned to me and said,''Do you remember the last time I was here? 44397 Know of him?" |
44397 | May I speak to you in private, somewhere where there is no chance of our being overheard? |
44397 | Mercy on us, you do n''t intend going there? |
44397 | Mr. Wildbridge,he began, leaning forward and eyeing me intently,"do you believe in family curses?" |
44397 | Mr. Wotherall, was n''t it? |
44397 | New houses, are n''t they? |
44397 | No peculiarity in common? |
44397 | Now do you see it? |
44397 | Seen her? 44397 Seen who?" |
44397 | Sir Eldred? |
44397 | The son of Sir Thomas Mansfield, the Bornean explorer? |
44397 | The wind? |
44397 | Then you are the present baronet? |
44397 | Then you''re a rich man, John? |
44397 | Those candles,he said,"why do n''t they burn properly? |
44397 | Tired of life? |
44397 | Was there nothing else in the three cases that struck you as unusual? |
44397 | Well? |
44397 | What age is he? |
44397 | What do you mean? |
44397 | What do you want to interfere with Ephraim for? |
44397 | What do you want us to do? |
44397 | What is it? |
44397 | What is it? |
44397 | What is it? |
44397 | What is your opinion? 44397 What reason is there for your being earth- bound?" |
44397 | What was that? |
44397 | What''s become of him? |
44397 | What''s his name? |
44397 | What''s the matter? 44397 What, down there?" |
44397 | When were the deaths first discovered? |
44397 | Where is Rosalie? |
44397 | Which would render them more susceptible to the influence of poison? |
44397 | Who are you? |
44397 | Who are you? |
44397 | Who has the keys of the house? |
44397 | Who''s there? |
44397 | Who''s there? |
44397 | Who''s there? |
44397 | Whose funeral was it? |
44397 | Why are you standing? |
44397 | Why do you live alone? 44397 Why have you brought me here?" |
44397 | Why is the house in darkness? |
44397 | Why, what are you a- talking about? |
44397 | Why, whatever other kind of spirits are there? 44397 Why?" |
44397 | Would you like to go home? |
44397 | You are quite sure you have no near relatives? |
44397 | You are the only one left in your family? |
44397 | You do n''t know where he went, I suppose? |
44397 | You mean materialised thought forms? |
44397 | You think, of course, that you may share the fate of your mother, father, and brother? |
44397 | ''Do you want a job?'' |
44397 | ''How dare you annoy me like this? |
44397 | ''Was that all?'' |
44397 | ''What can have happened to him?'' |
44397 | ''What do you think it was?'' |
44397 | ''Who are you? |
44397 | ''Who is the poor wretch?'' |
44397 | ''You are not frightened,''I said;''you-- a member of the New Supernatural Investigation Society?'' |
44397 | ''You think you will see the murder, do you? |
44397 | -- Regency Square and fetch a lady and gentleman? |
44397 | --, ai n''t it?" |
44397 | And this house has none, has it? |
44397 | And yet, if that were so, why was I certain that they were not the footsteps of any trespasser from outside? |
44397 | And yet, what else could have produced that look of horror in the faces? |
44397 | And, after all, what is of more consequence than pure air which means health? |
44397 | Another pause, and then John said suddenly,"More brandy, Wilfred?" |
44397 | Any more questions?" |
44397 | Are n''t you coming?" |
44397 | Are people suffering with such a disease prone to suicide?" |
44397 | Are you sure? |
44397 | Are you tired of life, Wilfred?" |
44397 | Besides, why should a theatre be haunted? |
44397 | Bowles?" |
44397 | Brown ejaculated,"where was it?" |
44397 | But how did you know?" |
44397 | But what makes it blow about so? |
44397 | But why do you ask?" |
44397 | But why do you ask?" |
44397 | But why, I ask, do we not hear creaks in the daytime, when the traffic is more constant and changes in the temperature quite as marked? |
44397 | CHAPTER XIII THE PINES"Who is the most interesting person in this institution?" |
44397 | Comes to you regularly? |
44397 | Could it be the storm, or was it-- was it those trees? |
44397 | Dare you go on?" |
44397 | Did anyone recommend you?" |
44397 | Did he mean the wind? |
44397 | Did n''t you feel how intensely antagonistic it was to us?'' |
44397 | Did you want to see him?" |
44397 | Do n''t you know of any pretty cottage or picturesque old farm, near here, that I could stay at?'' |
44397 | Do you hear that?" |
44397 | Do you hear?'' |
44397 | Do you recollect the occasion?" |
44397 | Do you remember what you said? |
44397 | Do you remember your pet aversion in the way of ghosts?'' |
44397 | Do you see those shadows on the water? |
44397 | Do you still let rooms?" |
44397 | Do you think I should ask you round to my house, to drink the best vintage London can offer you, if I had n''t? |
44397 | Do you think he''s worth it?'' |
44397 | Does the general public know everything? |
44397 | Ever been there?'' |
44397 | Got over that little love affair, eh? |
44397 | Griffiths?" |
44397 | Have you never seen an almanac before?" |
44397 | He did n''t like my laugh, and he persisted:''Was that all you heard?'' |
44397 | He did n''t owe you anything, did he?" |
44397 | His eyes had tricked him in the kitchen; might they not trick him again out here, and in a rather more alarming manner? |
44397 | How can you see her, and why should she come to you?" |
44397 | How could a stone in a picture-- a thing of mere paint and canvas-- suddenly start rocking? |
44397 | How long had it been left, and where was its owner? |
44397 | I shouted out,"Can you tell me the way to the Gyp Mill?" |
44397 | I suppose, by the way, there is no doubt that this George Mansfield is my cousin?" |
44397 | I wonder if a murder did actually take place in that house? |
44397 | I wonder why he''s come back? |
44397 | If it wo n''t be tiring you too much, will you come and sit with me?" |
44397 | Is n''t it often used?" |
44397 | Is not the theatre, to it, simply the stage, and is it not profoundly ignorant of all that lies beyond the stage-- away back, behind the hidden wings? |
44397 | Is that you? |
44397 | Is there no way of seeing you-- just for a second?" |
44397 | It was rather lucky for me that I did n''t go there after all, was n''t it? |
44397 | May I take it home with me for a few nights?" |
44397 | Mrs. Griffiths demanded, abruptly breaking off from her pastry- making"A souvenir of your friend? |
44397 | Now, tell me-- of whom does your household at the Caspar Beeches consist?" |
44397 | Or both?" |
44397 | Or has my eyesight suddenly gone wrong?" |
44397 | Rats?" |
44397 | Rum or brandy?" |
44397 | Shall I marry him or not? |
44397 | Should I go? |
44397 | Sir George cried angrily,"what the deuce do you mean? |
44397 | Supposing you engage me as your secretary?" |
44397 | That does n''t look much like a disabled monk, does it?'' |
44397 | There was still time for flight, but whither could I go? |
44397 | Was n''t it funny?'' |
44397 | Was the terrible Bornean phantasm getting ready to manifest itself? |
44397 | Was there any family or hereditary disease?" |
44397 | Was there anything specially remarkable in the facial contractions or colour of the skin?" |
44397 | Was this the prelude to it? |
44397 | Water?" |
44397 | Were the victims in a normal state of health? |
44397 | What business had he there? |
44397 | What chance had I when you pointed to your bank- book and said,''If I die I can settle all that on her''? |
44397 | What could a black man and a young girl be doing prowling about the grounds of the Caspar Beeches at that hour of night? |
44397 | What did the wind sound like?'' |
44397 | What do you think, Mrs. de Roscovi?" |
44397 | What else could have killed them? |
44397 | What had become of him, he wondered? |
44397 | What had he been so carefully plotting with Craddock? |
44397 | What had he discovered? |
44397 | What in Heaven''s name can I do?" |
44397 | What in Heaven''s name had become of the thing? |
44397 | What is that?'' |
44397 | What is your opinion, Wilfred?" |
44397 | What should I see? |
44397 | What was it that made them different from other footsteps? |
44397 | What were we talking about? |
44397 | What''s that? |
44397 | What''s that?" |
44397 | What''s the good of love without prospects?" |
44397 | When would the horror drop from them? |
44397 | Whence would come the danger my instinct told me threatened him? |
44397 | Where could it be? |
44397 | Where had it got to? |
44397 | Where is he, I say?" |
44397 | Who do you mean?" |
44397 | Who sent for you?" |
44397 | Who were they? |
44397 | Why are you here?'' |
44397 | Why ask?'' |
44397 | Why could n''t he see it? |
44397 | Why did he stand in the moonlight? |
44397 | Why do n''t you use dough?" |
44397 | Why was it so deserted? |
44397 | Why were n''t there people about-- living beings among those dark swaying trees and bushes like there were in the London parks? |
44397 | Why, I asked myself, should these footsteps alarm me? |
44397 | Why? |
44397 | Why?" |
44397 | Wildbridge?" |
44397 | Will you go back with me to- night? |
44397 | Will you remain here?" |
44397 | Will you tell us what to do?" |
44397 | Wotherall?" |
44397 | Wotherall?" |
44397 | Would you like to hear it?" |
44397 | Would you like to see them?" |
44397 | Yet whence came the gas and how was it administered? |
44397 | You can invoke it, ca n''t you, Madame Valenspin?" |
44397 | You do like your bit of fun, do n''t yer?" |
44397 | You do n''t mind my playing the part of instructor?" |
44397 | You say it is new?" |
44397 | Your eyes are bad?'' |
44397 | he demanded,"and what right have you to fish here?" |
44397 | what does it know of the thoughts of all that host of bygones-- of their terrible anxieties, their loves, their passions? |
34171 | ''Again, I must ask,''said the fiend, in a manner that aggravated me as it had aggravated the old gentleman,''who, in all creation, is Arabella?'' 34171 ''And if I refuse to submit to this outrage?'' |
34171 | ''Are you there?'' 34171 ''Can you blame me for not being effusively grateful to you for having cut me out of three weeks of existence?'' |
34171 | ''Do you know the date upon which I visited you first?'' 34171 ''Edward,''she replied,''are you mad?'' |
34171 | ''Have I?'' 34171 ''Have I?'' |
34171 | ''How do you do, sir?'' 34171 ''Oh, Edward, Edward,''she cried--''I forgot to tell you, Hopkins,''explained the spirit,''my name was Edward''--''oh, Edward, what does this mean?'' |
34171 | ''Swallowing it; why?'' 34171 ''We?'' |
34171 | ''Well,''I said as soon as I was able to speak,''what new disgrace is this you have put upon me? 34171 ''Well?'' |
34171 | ''What can it mean?'' 34171 ''What does this mean?'' |
34171 | ''What is that?'' 34171 ''What the devil have you been doing with that brandy?'' |
34171 | ''Where have you been?'' 34171 ''Why not?'' |
34171 | ''You do not mean to say,''he said,''that you take this fiery stuff without water?'' 34171 Am I? |
34171 | An appeal to his vanity, eh? |
34171 | And have you no clue to the thieves? 34171 And how long was it before you encountered yourself once more?" |
34171 | And my hallucination was what? |
34171 | And the fiend''s present title is? |
34171 | And the fiend? |
34171 | And the poor soul whose place you took? |
34171 | And the real souls of these men? |
34171 | And the speech next day? 34171 And then, Hopkins, that infernal fiend looked my father- in law elect square in the eye and asked,--"''Who the devil is Arabella?'' |
34171 | And what is that? |
34171 | And when you meet him? |
34171 | And where do you suppose the meeting took place? |
34171 | Anything more, Toppleton? |
34171 | Are you sure he is not an impostor? |
34171 | At Buckingham Palace? |
34171 | Buried it? 34171 But how do you propose to reach him? |
34171 | But how is it,said Toppleton,"that this has never happened before?" |
34171 | But how the deuce did you come to lose it? 34171 But tell me how have you become infamously famous?" |
34171 | But what do you suggest as an alternative? |
34171 | But what happened next? 34171 But why do you think you will succeed, Hopkins? |
34171 | But you do n''t intend to let him back? |
34171 | But, my dear fellow, what more than a pigeon- hole do you need? |
34171 | Ca n''t you get a body in some way? 34171 Could I do anything but swear to what he asked?" |
34171 | Did he acquire his title by descent? 34171 Did n''t you know where?" |
34171 | Did n''t your father resist that? |
34171 | Did the old gentleman persist in his determination to leave the country? |
34171 | Did you find your head a little stretched when you got back into yourself again, or did he break his word and refuse to let you back? |
34171 | Do y-- you want to give me heart failure? |
34171 | Do you mean to say that the present occupant of your personality is the creature who robbed you of it? |
34171 | Do you remember any of your law now? |
34171 | Drowning? |
34171 | Every one of the volumes will be absolutely uncut, I suppose, eh? |
34171 | First we must decide,''What is the wrong that has been put upon you?'' 34171 Haunted, sir?" |
34171 | Have you been in this country long? |
34171 | Have you-- er-- have you considered what Barncastle''s servants will think of this strange performance? 34171 He?" |
34171 | How about the knock and the sigh? |
34171 | How about the third method? |
34171 | How can you talk if you stop your mouth up with a pipe? |
34171 | How could I forget that? 34171 How could you suspect me of that?" |
34171 | How did you get out of it? |
34171 | How goes it is Rocky Mountain for how''s things, all your family well, and your creditors easy? |
34171 | How goes it? |
34171 | How goes what? 34171 How''s that?" |
34171 | I found nothing wrong with it,said Hopkins;"did you suspect that anything was wrong there?" |
34171 | I have changed; have I not? |
34171 | I hope everything is-- er-- everything was all right with the room, sir? |
34171 | I will omit the details of my life up to the time when I became a lawyer and--"You do n''t mean to say you_ ever_ became a lawyer? |
34171 | I''m not, eh? 34171 I? |
34171 | I? |
34171 | I? |
34171 | I? |
34171 | If I did, where would your only material friend be? 34171 If you can lay all this misery bare to me, why ca n''t you lay it before those for whose good will and admiration you are lamenting?" |
34171 | Is there anything in this world,it asked,"is there anything too sacred for you Americans to joke about? |
34171 | Is this the way American lawyers do business generally? |
34171 | It has n''t lost its good looks altogether, has it? |
34171 | It''s a great custom, ai n''t it? |
34171 | My dear,he said in a moment,"I have been ill you say for three weeks, and with no lucid intervals?" |
34171 | Nearly, Hopkins? |
34171 | Nearly? 34171 Now what could I do under the circumstances, Toppleton?" |
34171 | Often,replied the spirit;"but the question has always been, how?" |
34171 | Or a bit of fog coming down the chimney, eh, Stubbs? |
34171 | Shall I open it for you? |
34171 | Shoot myself? 34171 Summon the fiend?" |
34171 | That I-- ah-- why, that I was writing an obituary poem on--"Me? |
34171 | That''s all true enough,returned Hopkins,"but where am I to keep my law library? |
34171 | They''ll think you are a craz--"What? |
34171 | True, Barncastle? |
34171 | We shall have a white Christmas after all, but,he added, gazing about him,"how the dickens did I ever come to be here, I wonder? |
34171 | Were you fool enough to give it to him without getting a receipt? |
34171 | Wh-- wh-- what sus-- seems to b-- be the m-- mum-- matter, sir? |
34171 | Wh-- whuh-- what the devil did you do tha-- that for? |
34171 | What are you talking about? |
34171 | What awful power have you that you can leave your body and appear as you do now? |
34171 | What could have induced you to fall in love with the daughter of a man like that? |
34171 | What devilish complication does this mean, I wonder? |
34171 | What did the thief who took your shape do with his old one? |
34171 | What is the meaning of it-- how-- how has it come that you-- that you are here? |
34171 | What the deuce is this? |
34171 | What the devil is he talking about? |
34171 | What''s come? |
34171 | What, summon that deadly green thing before those men, and change places with him in the presence of witnesses? 34171 What?" |
34171 | Where do you keep your face? |
34171 | Where? |
34171 | Which is? |
34171 | Which was? |
34171 | While acknowledging, Duchess, that I nevertheless am? |
34171 | Who''s there? |
34171 | Why did n''t you break them off and throw them at him? |
34171 | Why do n''t you buy a house- boat? |
34171 | Why not? |
34171 | Why, my dear fellow, what object could I have? 34171 You give him credit for that, do n''t you?" |
34171 | You know what? 34171 You mean to say that to all intents and purposes, an invisible being like yourself called on you as you have called on me?" |
34171 | You mean to say that when you recovered your senses, you had been deprived of your body? |
34171 | You must be a sort of cross between a rumour and a small boy, I suppose; is that it? |
34171 | You''re not going to send that, are you? |
34171 | ''Are you not aware that three weeks have elapsed since you and your body parted company? |
34171 | ''Do n''t you hear me, sweetheart? |
34171 | ''Do you call this a matter of love? |
34171 | ''Do you mean to say to me, Edward, that you did_ not_ ask me to be your wife?'' |
34171 | ''Have I been standing for Parliament?'' |
34171 | ''I should like to know what excuse you can have for such infernal duplicity as you have been guilty of?'' |
34171 | ''Mistake, you snivelling hypocrite? |
34171 | ''Murder or suicide? |
34171 | ''What is personal appearance to pre- eminent success? |
34171 | ''What_ does_ it all mean? |
34171 | ''Where have you been?'' |
34171 | ''Where have you?'' |
34171 | ''Why should you do all this for me who know you not, and without a price?'' |
34171 | ''You have n''t disgraced me in her eyes, have you?'' |
34171 | ''You meant that I should drink it, did n''t you?'' |
34171 | ''You''ve come to, at last, eh? |
34171 | Am I become a prey to hallucinations, and if so, am I not in grave danger of my personal liberty here if Barncastle should discover my weakness?" |
34171 | Am I never to have relaxation from office cares? |
34171 | Am I to make my mark now as an inebriate, or is this simply a little practical joke you are putting upon my sensibilities? |
34171 | And what am I to do in case I should have a client?" |
34171 | Are n''t there any comfortable chairs and beds there?" |
34171 | Are you an apparition or what?" |
34171 | As long as that?" |
34171 | Besides,"continued Toppleton,"why should I care what his servants think? |
34171 | But hurry up and get ready to relieve me of this mortal incubus of yours, and take your money-- it''s a nice little sum, eh?'' |
34171 | But let''s see; what_ does_ Barncastle say? |
34171 | But tell me, Chatford, how do I look?" |
34171 | But tell me, madame, are you Miss Arabella Hicksworthy- Johnstone?'' |
34171 | But, Stubbs, to what do you attribute these beastly disturbances? |
34171 | By occupancy? |
34171 | By purchase? |
34171 | By the way-- have you a mother living?'' |
34171 | Ca n''t you borrow one temporarily?" |
34171 | Can it be that Chatford is an illusion, a fanciful creation of a weak mind? |
34171 | Clear as crystal, eh?" |
34171 | Did Bonaparte die at the height of his glory? |
34171 | Did Grant die at the zenith of his power?" |
34171 | Did he keep his word?" |
34171 | Did the fiend depart as you spoke those words?" |
34171 | Did this private view you and the Nile- green apparition were having of each other last for ever?" |
34171 | Did you become a student of nature?" |
34171 | Did you ever know a genius in his infancy?" |
34171 | Do n''t you see that to be spoken impressively these words demand a certain venomous hiss? |
34171 | Do you know where it is?" |
34171 | Do you see anything?'' |
34171 | Do you see me? |
34171 | Do you see that note in this week''s_ Vanity Fair_, you vile deceiver? |
34171 | Do you suppose I want to be reminded at every step I take that I am a lawyer? |
34171 | Do you suppose that any woman, in fact, who would consent to marry you as your weak inefficient self could go anywhere and do me justice? |
34171 | Do you suppose you could take her to a ball at the Earl of Mawlberry''s? |
34171 | Do you think it''s a matter of love for an entire stranger to throw a two- pound crystal inkstand loaded with ink at the very core of my waistcoat? |
34171 | Eh?" |
34171 | Ever been in the Rockies, Barncastle?" |
34171 | Ghosts?" |
34171 | Has n''t somebody killed an office- boy in this apartment, for whistling?" |
34171 | Has this room a history?" |
34171 | Have I the honour of addressing Miss Arabella Hicksworthy- Johnstone?'' |
34171 | Have a pleasant trip?" |
34171 | Have n''t you any better sense than to suggest my carrying my profession into my home life? |
34171 | Have you discovered an Elixir of Life, then?" |
34171 | Have you enjoyed your life? |
34171 | Have you enjoyed your limbs? |
34171 | Have you heard from the Duchess of Bangletop?" |
34171 | Have you never observed how men of genius outlive their genius? |
34171 | Have you no office hours, say from ten to two, when you may be seen by those desirous of feasting their eyes upon your tangibility?" |
34171 | Have you thought of that?" |
34171 | He has made my name famous--""You do n''t mean to say that he took your name too?" |
34171 | How am I to understand you, when you sit around like a maudlin void lost in a vacuum? |
34171 | How did Keats, son of a stableman, become the sweetest of our sonneteers? |
34171 | How did you come to lose it, and is it still living?" |
34171 | How did you know he would n''t rob you?" |
34171 | How did you manage to live?" |
34171 | How else account for the evolution of genius? |
34171 | How goes it, anyhow?" |
34171 | How is it accounted for? |
34171 | How is that?" |
34171 | How was that? |
34171 | How? |
34171 | I fell asleep here last night and I suppose he has-- Hello!--Who''s that?" |
34171 | I sincerely hope you are not ill?" |
34171 | I sympathize with you? |
34171 | I want to know what your object is in coming here to expose me before my friends, to lay bare--""Object? |
34171 | I''ll have to cook up some explanation for that-- lost it in an Indian fight in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, or some equally plausible theory, eh?" |
34171 | If I had something to pull the trigger with, what should I fire at? |
34171 | If there were anything supernatural about them, why did n''t the air get blue, and where''s my cold chill and my hair standing erect? |
34171 | In short, madam, do you intend to claim me as your matrimonial prize or not? |
34171 | In your own country, how did Lincoln and Grant spring from nothing to greatness? |
34171 | It was only a sudden turn I had; only, my friend, go slow on the horrible, will you?" |
34171 | It''s hopeless, Edward; and now that I think of it, even if you did get a form and should go to court, where are your witnesses? |
34171 | Me? |
34171 | Must my business be rammed down my throat at all hours? |
34171 | See?" |
34171 | Take this case for me, wo n''t you?" |
34171 | That fiend who robbed me has my stomach, so what could I put the poison into?" |
34171 | The train?" |
34171 | To my eyes I appear rather plain and dusky- looking, but what''s the odds? |
34171 | To what extent do you retain that remarkable omniscient quality? |
34171 | Toppleton?" |
34171 | Toppleton?" |
34171 | Toppleton?" |
34171 | Toppleton?" |
34171 | Was the germ of greatness discoverable in them in their youth? |
34171 | Was the old gentleman hurt?" |
34171 | What am I here for, eh? |
34171 | What are looks compared to immortality? |
34171 | What are you, anyhow, a retired maniac or simply an active imbecile?'' |
34171 | What claim have I on you, eh? |
34171 | What did Arabella say?" |
34171 | What did you do?" |
34171 | What do I say?" |
34171 | What do you mean by your ill- timed levity?" |
34171 | What does he say?" |
34171 | What if the present occupant of my corse had again yielded to the seductive influence of the cup, and was off somewhere upon a prolonged spree? |
34171 | What is my object?" |
34171 | What mistake can there be? |
34171 | What the deuce are you, anyhow? |
34171 | What time is dinner? |
34171 | What''s my name, eh? |
34171 | What''s your price?" |
34171 | Where he is?" |
34171 | Where is your chin whisker?" |
34171 | Who am I, eh? |
34171 | Who in the name of my honoured partners are you?" |
34171 | Whom did you suppose?'' |
34171 | Why have you treated me so?'' |
34171 | Why not atone for the past by admitting him once more?" |
34171 | Will you not give it to me?" |
34171 | Would you like that, Hopkins Toppleton?" |
34171 | You are not ill, I hope?" |
34171 | You want instances? |
34171 | You will respect my confidence, will you not?" |
34171 | You''ll go, of course?" |
34171 | Your name is what?" |
34171 | cried Toppleton,"the famous novelist?" |
34171 | said Hopkins with enthusiasm,"that of being dunned by proxy, eh? |
34171 | what the deuce did I do then?" |
40453 | ''And you, Mr. Nicholls,''I said,''have you formed no theory of your own upon the subject?'' 40453 ''But where,''I said,''do you think he is likely to have found such a hiding- place?'' |
40453 | ''Can I see him?'' 40453 ''Can you tell me where he is living? |
40453 | ''Charles Ballingall?'' 40453 ''Did he? |
40453 | ''Do you hold the deeds of the house?'' 40453 ''Do you remember, Mr. Hurley,''I began,''the 22nd of October, 1892?'' |
40453 | ''Have you? 40453 ''Is that so?'' |
40453 | ''Is that you talking in here? 40453 ''Leaving instructions that you should act on his behalf?'' |
40453 | ''May I inquire, in return, why you ask the question?'' 40453 ''Not insane?'' |
40453 | ''Shall I answer this gentleman''s question, sir?'' 40453 ''Should you recognise Ossington''s signature-- and your own-- and the document to which they were attached?'' |
40453 | ''So you''re at it again, are you? 40453 ''The 22nd of October, 1892?'' |
40453 | ''Was there another witness?'' 40453 ''Were you acquainted with the nature of the document he was signing?'' |
40453 | ''What was her name?'' 40453 ''What''s the nature of your right?'' |
40453 | ''What''s your fortune to do with me?'' 40453 ''When found?'' |
40453 | ''You had reasons to suppose that he had means?'' 40453 ''Your fortune?'' |
40453 | A book? 40453 A favour? |
40453 | A jest at your expense? |
40453 | Ai n''t you coming with me? |
40453 | Am I to understand that you can give no description of the burglar-- that there''s no one you suspect? |
40453 | Am I? 40453 And he looked like a gentleman?" |
40453 | And he took nothing? |
40453 | And pray who are you? |
40453 | And pray, sir, what explanation have you to offer of the felony you are committing? |
40453 | And then? |
40453 | And what became of him? |
40453 | And you say he could play? |
40453 | And, Mr. Graham, you really think there is a hidden treasure? |
40453 | Are you quite a beginner? |
40453 | Are you so stupid? |
40453 | Are you sure Ossington was the name he mentioned? 40453 Are you sure he was alone?" |
40453 | Are you sure it''s a man? |
40453 | Are you sure? |
40453 | Are you sure? |
40453 | Are you-- pardon me-- but are you Miss Ossington? |
40453 | Are you? 40453 Ballingall?" |
40453 | Behind the washstand? |
40453 | But does n''t some one of that name live here? |
40453 | But he did n''t behave like one? |
40453 | But in the meantime? |
40453 | But whatever did you let such an extraordinary- looking creature into the house for? 40453 But you called him a thief?" |
40453 | But, my dear, how can you be so sure? |
40453 | Ca n''t you see the ghost? |
40453 | Can the catch have fallen? 40453 Can you describe him?" |
40453 | Can you see him? 40453 Cat-- dog? |
40453 | Did you give the alarm? |
40453 | Did you mention anything to Mr. Nicholls about the paper? |
40453 | Did you? 40453 Did-- didn''t I hear s- something in the kitchen?" |
40453 | Do any of you believe in ghosts?--in disembodied spirits assuming a corporeal shape?--in the dead returning from their graves? 40453 Do n''t be so tiresome, Madge; tell us what it is?" |
40453 | Do n''t you know who I am? 40453 Do n''t you see what the situation really is?" |
40453 | Do they? 40453 Do you authorise me to gain an entry?" |
40453 | Do you hear me? 40453 Do you mean that you''re the landlady?" |
40453 | Do you mean to say that she gained entrance to this house by means of a key which she took from her pocket? |
40453 | Do you see what''s written as a heading on that piece of paper? |
40453 | Do you think it was either of your visitors who has paid us another call to- night? |
40453 | Does it? 40453 Even if that is the case, as Miss Duncan puts it, where are you going to begin? |
40453 | False? |
40453 | First of all,struck in Madge,"how about the will?" |
40453 | Give you a music lesson? |
40453 | Gracious!--did she hit him? |
40453 | Have you a pocket- knife? |
40453 | Have you been able to make anything more of the writing which was left behind by your burglarious visitor? |
40453 | Have you? 40453 He came in through the back window and left through the front?" |
40453 | How about the landlord? |
40453 | How do you know that? |
40453 | How do you make that out? |
40453 | How does it effect our right of search? |
40453 | How much do you think they''ll give you for it? |
40453 | How? 40453 I presume there is a back door?" |
40453 | I suppose you are a genius? |
40453 | I suppose you know there''s been a burglary here before? |
40453 | I-- I beg your pardon-- but might I ask you a favour? |
40453 | If he came here in search of plunder?--what else could he have come for? |
40453 | In the meantime,suggested Ella, putting her hand up to her own lips,"what do you say to bed?" |
40453 | In the morning, perhaps at dinner- time, he''d come into the cell in the usual way, and ask me:''Charlie, do you remember last night?'' |
40453 | Indeed? 40453 Is it a will?--a valid one, I mean?" |
40453 | Is n''t it a voice from the grave? |
40453 | Is she dead? |
40453 | Is that the man who is watching you? |
40453 | Is that you, Tom Ossington? |
40453 | Is there anything in this room which gives you a hint? 40453 Is there no means of getting away by the back without returning to the front?" |
40453 | Is this the piece you wish me to play? 40453 Is your name Ossington?" |
40453 | It is true-- is it not? |
40453 | It''s a strange homecoming, is it not? 40453 Listen,"she exclaimed;"who''s that? |
40453 | Madge!--what do you mean? |
40453 | Madge!--who is this woman? |
40453 | Madge,cried Ella,"did you hear that? |
40453 | Madge,exclaimed a voice,"who is this woman?" |
40453 | Madge? |
40453 | May I ask,inquired Jack, with mock severity,"who is it who is interrupting now? |
40453 | Mr. Graham too? 40453 My dear, how can you be so certain? |
40453 | My dear, you do n''t mean to say that that crazy creature has left such an impression on your mind? |
40453 | Never mind what it shows; what''s the explanation? |
40453 | Nice? 40453 No? |
40453 | Northcote& Co? 40453 Now what?" |
40453 | Now, what are you going to do? |
40453 | Now, who''s that? 40453 Of course!--ain''t that what I''m saying? |
40453 | Oh-- Madge heard him first? |
40453 | Ossington? 40453 Ossington? |
40453 | Ossington? |
40453 | Pray what else is there to tell? 40453 See there-- what''s that?" |
40453 | She told you? 40453 So you have told them of me, have you? |
40453 | Something in the kitchen? 40453 Suppose the whole affair is a practical joke?" |
40453 | Suppose, Madge, there should be a fortune hidden somewhere in the house? |
40453 | Supposing this woman comes back again to- morrow? |
40453 | That''s all right-- we''ve got something, have n''t we, Jack? |
40453 | That''s very instructive, is n''t it? |
40453 | The burglar left behind him a scrap of paper----"Oh, I did, did I? 40453 The burglary last night-- do you think?" |
40453 | The key? |
40453 | The man who stared through the window? 40453 The notion is not altogether an agreeable one, I''ll allow; but facts are----""What''s that?" |
40453 | The paper says''three''--I measure three feet from where I am standing, along the wainscot-- you see? 40453 The point is,"said Ella,"where are you going to begin to look?" |
40453 | Then did n''t you see him at all? |
40453 | Then do you propose to dig up the whole of the back garden till you light upon their hallowed bones? |
40453 | Then is our search barred? 40453 Then what right had he to do that?" |
40453 | This is Clover Cottage? |
40453 | This is n''t a trap, or anything of that kind? |
40453 | Tom!--Are you a devil? |
40453 | Tom!--what''s he doing here? 40453 Tom-- Tom, what is he doing here?" |
40453 | Well, and what did they say? |
40453 | Well, and what did you do then? |
40453 | Well, has anything happened? |
40453 | Well-- I could n''t very well shoot him if I never caught a glimpse of him, could I? 40453 Were the people who lived here named Ossington?" |
40453 | What about his feelings? 40453 What affair is that of yours? |
40453 | What are those things which are cut or moulded on that strip of beading, if it is beading, under the ceiling? |
40453 | What are you doing here? |
40453 | What are you doing? |
40453 | What can have happened? 40453 What cause have you to suppose that?" |
40453 | What difference does that make?--Then what use does he make of what I said spontaneously? 40453 What do you mean by that?" |
40453 | What do you mean? |
40453 | What do you say to that? |
40453 | What is it which makes you-- all brimming over? |
40453 | What is the matter? 40453 What is what?" |
40453 | What man? |
40453 | What sort of stories? |
40453 | What''s the matter with you, Madge? 40453 What''s the odds? |
40453 | What''s this? |
40453 | What''s what? |
40453 | What,she asked,"are you doing there?" |
40453 | What-- Mr. Graham too? |
40453 | What? |
40453 | Whatever shall we do? |
40453 | When will you do this? |
40453 | Where shall I tear it off?--Here? 40453 Where?" |
40453 | Who are you, and what is the meaning of your presence on these premises? |
40453 | Who is she? 40453 Who on earth is that?" |
40453 | Who said Ossington? 40453 Who''s that downstairs?" |
40453 | Who''s that? |
40453 | Who''s there? |
40453 | Who-- who are these people? 40453 Who-- who''s this man?" |
40453 | Why do you ask us such a question? |
40453 | Why not commence,asked Madge,"with a thorough examination of the room which we''re now in?" |
40453 | Will no one go? |
40453 | Will you be so good as to tell me, at once, to whom I have the pleasure of speaking, and what business has brought you here? |
40453 | Will you come this way? 40453 Would you know him if you saw him again?" |
40453 | Yes, and then she came and told me----"Where was he all the time? |
40453 | You did n''t follow him? |
40453 | You fancy? 40453 You give music lessons?" |
40453 | You have come to do what? |
40453 | You hear him, Madge? |
40453 | You knew it was Ballingall?--How did you know it was Ballingall? 40453 You knew? |
40453 | You say you did n''t see him? |
40453 | You''re sure this was his property? |
40453 | You? 40453 Yours?" |
40453 | ''And whereabouts may Clover Cottage be?'' |
40453 | ''Are you aware?'' |
40453 | ''May I ask,''I said, beginning to think that his yarn smelt somewhat fishy,''what house this was?'' |
40453 | ''What''s the matter now?'' |
40453 | ''Why is n''t there a place in which they bring up babies so that they need n''t worry their mothers?'' |
40453 | --yes, I noticed it, but I do n''t know what it means-- do you?" |
40453 | AND THE PANEL"And is that all the story?" |
40453 | And have you no notion who the woman is? |
40453 | And what did they say?" |
40453 | And what''s yours-- cur, hound, thief? |
40453 | And who are you, that you ask such a question-- of a lady?" |
40453 | And who wants to live in a place with bare brick walls? |
40453 | And would you be so kind as to change the subject?" |
40453 | And you do n''t think the man in the road was a policeman?" |
40453 | And you''ve got a pencil, have you? |
40453 | Are n''t we to look at all?" |
40453 | Are n''t you conscious of a sense of mystery about the place, and do n''t you feel it''s haunted?" |
40453 | Are they all dried and withered? |
40453 | Are you coming?" |
40453 | As you are evidently aware that such a paper existed once upon a time, you are probably acquainted with its present whereabouts?'' |
40453 | At this point I would pause to inquire why, Miss Brodie, you did not take me into your confidence yesterday afternoon?" |
40453 | Beneath it, how shall she stagger to the footstool of her God? |
40453 | But perhaps you''ll tell us what is the key to the key?" |
40453 | But why did n''t you explain?" |
40453 | But why should n''t you make it yours? |
40453 | But you do seem so happy, and I think that sharing other people''s happiness is almost as good as being happy yourself-- don''t you? |
40453 | By the way, who is the landlord?" |
40453 | CHAPTER XIII AN INTERRUPTED TREASURE HUNT"Well,"inquired Martyn, when Graham? |
40453 | CHAPTER XVIII MADGE APPLIES MORE STRENGTH Was it imagination? |
40453 | CHAPTER XX THE FORTUNE And the fortune? |
40453 | Ca n''t you hear him crying now? |
40453 | Ca n''t you hear him crying now? |
40453 | Ca n''t you hear him saying it now? |
40453 | Ca n''t you hear his lame foot moving about the floor? |
40453 | Ca n''t you see it lying on the pillow, with a smile on its face? |
40453 | Ca n''t you see the ghost?" |
40453 | Ca n''t you see the ghost?" |
40453 | Ca n''t you see the ghost?" |
40453 | Ca n''t you see the ghost?''" |
40453 | Ca n''t you see them too?" |
40453 | Can you think of anything dirtier? |
40453 | Did n''t I tell you you''d see the hand of Providence? |
40453 | Did some one or something really pass from the room, causing in going a little current of air? |
40453 | Did they not tell you his name?" |
40453 | Did you bring-- me home-- for this?" |
40453 | Did you not say that you had been for some time seeking for an opportunity to take lessons in music?" |
40453 | Do n''t I tell you I''ve come to see the house?" |
40453 | Do n''t I tell you this is my show? |
40453 | Do n''t you know?" |
40453 | Do n''t you think so, Mr. Graham? |
40453 | Do you know any one of the name of Edward John Hurley?'' |
40453 | Do you know him?'' |
40453 | Do you know that we''re standing in the presence of a romance in real life-- on the verge of a blood- curdling mystery? |
40453 | Do you know the man''s history?'' |
40453 | Do you mean that you do n''t know who she is?" |
40453 | Do you remember witnessing Mr. Thomas Ossington''s attachment of his signature to a certain document on the 22nd of October, 1892?'' |
40453 | Do you want to queer it? |
40453 | Does n''t it strike you, under the circumstances, as odd that the paper the burglar has left behind him, should be headed''Tom Ossington''s Ghost''?" |
40453 | Does not all this suggest that we have here an explanation of part of what was written on the burglar''s paper?" |
40453 | Does that tend to strengthen the evidence which goes to show that the deed, on your part, was a courageous one?" |
40453 | Ella!--what are you doing?" |
40453 | Ella, what can you mean? |
40453 | Fact!--aren''t we, Graham?" |
40453 | Graham too?'' |
40453 | Graham?" |
40453 | Graham?" |
40453 | Graham?" |
40453 | Had n''t we better open the window and scream? |
40453 | Has he gone mad?" |
40453 | Has he gone?" |
40453 | Have you been recommended by one of my pupils?" |
40453 | Have you no bowels of compassion, Tom-- none? |
40453 | He repeated my words, then replied to my question with another,''May I inquire why you ask?'' |
40453 | He''s in it now-- don''t you feel that he is in it?" |
40453 | He''s lying there now-- can''t you see him lying there?" |
40453 | His touch had been solid enough, he looked solid enough, but how came he to be in Southampton Street if he was lying in Wandsworth Churchyard? |
40453 | How are you going to begin to take the house to pieces-- by taking the slates off the roof, and the chimney- pots down?" |
40453 | How dare you talk such nonsense? |
40453 | How did you know?" |
40453 | How do you suppose we came in?--through the window? |
40453 | How often I''ve thrown that lame foot in his face when I''ve been wild!--can''t you hear it hobble-- hobble?" |
40453 | I am a poor, starving, police- ridden devil, being hounded to hell, full pelt, by a hundred other devils-- but, Bruce Graham, what are you?" |
40453 | I believe, Graham, I am correct in saying so?" |
40453 | I cried,''that Clover Cottage, Wandsworth Common, is the residence of the lady whom I hope to make my wife?'' |
40453 | I cried;''what are five pounds?'' |
40453 | I cried;''what''s the child down here at this time of the night for?'' |
40453 | I suppose you''re not afraid?" |
40453 | If he were to come back----""Yes-- if he were to come back?" |
40453 | In the morning he''d come and ask:"''Charlie, you remember what we did last night?'' |
40453 | In this house my baby was born-- wasn''t it, Tom? |
40453 | Is his brain of necessity unhinged? |
40453 | Is it necessary for you to talk as if you thought we should?" |
40453 | Is it?" |
40453 | Is n''t he cold- blooded? |
40453 | Is n''t it blood- curdling? |
40453 | Is n''t the inference an obvious one? |
40453 | Is n''t there cowardice writ large?" |
40453 | Is not a quittance nearly due-- from you, Tom? |
40453 | Is she to add to it, still, the weight of your resentment? |
40453 | Is she very mad?" |
40453 | Is the man in front a policeman?" |
40453 | Is there anything about the house which gives you a hint as to the meaning?" |
40453 | It''s as if the house were full of ghosts-- isn''t it, Tom?" |
40453 | It''s-- it''s-- yes, Tom, it''s a dog''s head, I see it is.--What am I to do with it? |
40453 | May I ask who is the owner of the property?'' |
40453 | Me? |
40453 | Miss Brodie, have you a tape measure?" |
40453 | Must I repeat my invitation, and press you to enter, in face of the eagerness to effect an entrance which it seems that you have already shown?" |
40453 | Must he of a certainty be mad?" |
40453 | Not-- Ballingall?" |
40453 | Now did n''t you?" |
40453 | Now, honestly, Graham, is n''t it a most extraordinary thing?" |
40453 | Oh!--You do?" |
40453 | Oh!--one of your own writing? |
40453 | Only we intend to choose the particular kind of loneliness which we happen to prefer-- don''t we, Madge?" |
40453 | Or is it you, Jack? |
40453 | Or was it fact? |
40453 | Ossington?" |
40453 | Press?--Yes, Tom, I am pressing.--Press harder? |
40453 | Really you''re a trifle warm-- don''t you think you are?" |
40453 | Ruining him? |
40453 | She looked down, and she picked at the nap of her frock, and she asked, a tone or two under her usual key:"What is it? |
40453 | Stay!--what was that? |
40453 | Take the paper off the wall? |
40453 | That means, probably, that between the outer wall and the wainscot there''s an open space-- and who knows what beside? |
40453 | That''s a good house, is n''t it?" |
40453 | The author''s spoken-- you shall be the dedicatee?" |
40453 | The delights of the country, with the horrors of town thrown in.--Did you catch the ruffian?" |
40453 | Then if you are not afraid, why should you have been so anxious to avoid him as to seek refuge, on so shallow a pretext, in a stranger''s house?" |
40453 | Then we both of us heard him-- then Madge fired----""Fired?--what?" |
40453 | Then what did she fire at?" |
40453 | There was absolutely nothing to be seen; and why should she, a healthy- minded young woman, suffer herself to be frightened by the vacant air? |
40453 | There''s forgiveness for sinners, Tom, with God; is there none with you? |
40453 | They''ve been with me all through the years, wherever I''ve been-- and where have n''t I been? |
40453 | To this house he brought me when we were married-- didn''t you, Tom? |
40453 | Upstairs? |
40453 | Was it the creaking of a board? |
40453 | Was the woman mad? |
40453 | Were you speaking to me?" |
40453 | What are you doing here?" |
40453 | What did I tell you? |
40453 | What do you mean by a trap?" |
40453 | What do you mean by saying you''ve come to see the house?" |
40453 | What do you say?" |
40453 | What does it matter to me who has it-- now? |
40453 | What does my lawyer-- my own lawyer, who pressed on me his services, mind!--do, while I''m in prison for what I never did? |
40453 | What have you been doing? |
40453 | What he meant to infer, she did not know; but he laughed shortly,"What makes you ask such a thing?" |
40453 | What is it?" |
40453 | What is the matter with the man? |
40453 | What on earth do you mean?" |
40453 | What then?" |
40453 | What use does he make of the confidence which he worms out of me?" |
40453 | What was she to do? |
40453 | What would you do with it?" |
40453 | What''s happened?" |
40453 | What''s that? |
40453 | What''s the nature of your theory?'' |
40453 | What''s the use? |
40453 | When is it coming out?" |
40453 | When the police came today----""Do you mean to say that the police have been here to- day?" |
40453 | Where are the title deeds of Clover Cottage-- and of other properties, of which he was the undoubted owner? |
40453 | Where are those notes? |
40453 | Where do you wish me to go?" |
40453 | Where is the scrip? |
40453 | Where was he? |
40453 | Where''s that paper? |
40453 | Where''s that revolver of Jack Martyn''s, which he lent you?" |
40453 | Which one?--This one? |
40453 | Who asked if my name was-- Ossington?" |
40453 | Who said it? |
40453 | Who was she, that she should turn custom from the door? |
40453 | Who''s he? |
40453 | Who?" |
40453 | Whoever can it be-- at this hour of the night? |
40453 | Why are you afraid of him?" |
40453 | Why did n''t you come inside?'' |
40453 | Why should a board creak like that downstairs, unless-- it was being stepped upon? |
40453 | Why should n''t it be yours? |
40453 | Why then, at what from one point of view might be described as the very moment of his triumph, had he vanished? |
40453 | Why, Tom, how many years is it since I was here? |
40453 | Will you let the gentleman go on?" |
40453 | With the rest, has it vanished into air? |
40453 | You could hardly expect him to stop to close it, could you?" |
40453 | You know that Ossington was-- peculiar?'' |
40453 | You think so? |
40453 | You used to be of those who forgive till seventy times seven; are you now so unforgiving? |
40453 | and been writing in your Bible? |
40453 | and what''s she been doing? |
40453 | and what''s she want?" |
40453 | and whatever did she mean by screaming out that she''s a ghost''s wife? |
40453 | had finished,"what is the situation now?" |
40453 | he said,''but does n''t Mr. Ossington live here?'' |
40453 | he said,''why did n''t you come to Clover Cottage when I told you?'' |
40453 | not to speak of more unprofessional? |
40453 | or shall I open the door?" |
40453 | she exclaimed,"how about Tom Ossington''s Ghost?" |
40453 | that''s the time of day is it? |
13319 | Are the Dead Alive? |
13319 | What shall the wedding breakfast be? 13319 _] Who has been at the desk? |
13319 | --the rest of them? |
13319 | ... And with that child? |
13319 | ... Ca n''t I make my presence known to_ you_? |
13319 | ... No word?... |
13319 | ... What did you mean, Andrew? |
13319 | ... What made you think of it just then? |
13319 | ... You believe that? |
13319 | A busy girl about the house, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | A circus? |
13319 | A compact? |
13319 | A cup of coffee, sir? |
13319 | A scene took place, eh? |
13319 | A what? |
13319 | Ah, but who lays out my linen? |
13319 | Am I going to be a bone setter in the next life and he a tulip man?... |
13319 | An M--? |
13319 | An offer? |
13319 | And could I hear you? |
13319 | And he died believing you? |
13319 | And how many times do you think_ you''ve_ been a spook yourself? |
13319 | And some day, should your children wander far away and my gardens blossom for a stranger who may take my name from off the gates,--what_ is_ my name? |
13319 | And then? |
13319 | And why were n''t we_ all_ told?... |
13319 | And you want to stay here? |
13319 | Anybody in this house come to their senses yet? |
13319 | Anything distressing you this morning, Mrs. Batholommey? |
13319 | Are you feeling better? |
13319 | Are you going... after all? |
13319 | Are you in your senses? |
13319 | Are you really going to sacrifice yourself because of-- Am I really losing you?... |
13319 | Are you sure he''s dead? |
13319 | Are you sure you remember that? |
13319 | Are you sure you''ll want to come back to live here? |
13319 | Are your feet wet? |
13319 | As for the Colonel, who spent half his time with Mr. Grimm, what is his reward? |
13319 | As_ PETER''S_ eyes rest on_ MARTA,_ he nods and smiles in recognition, waiting for a response._] Well, Marta?... |
13319 | B.--er? |
13319 | But better than all that-- who brings youth into my old house? |
13319 | But did you want her to be happy simply because_ you_ are happy, sir? |
13319 | But you hear me? |
13319 | Ca n''t my love for you outlive_ me_? |
13319 | Ca n''t you even hope? |
13319 | Ca n''t you say it politely? |
13319 | Ca n''t you wait a little while? |
13319 | Ca n''t you_ think_ I''m trying to help you? |
13319 | Ca n''t_ you_ understand one word? |
13319 | Can you hypnotize a thermometer? |
13319 | Can you see me, William? |
13319 | Can you, James? |
13319 | Catherine, have you asked James to be present at the ceremony to- morrow? |
13319 | Circus music? |
13319 | Come, Katie, tell me, on this fine spring morning, what sort of husband would you prefer? |
13319 | Could you talk to me? |
13319 | Dear old gentleman-- and er-- yes? |
13319 | Did I disturb you, James? |
13319 | Did he seem inclined to stay? |
13319 | Did it cross over?... |
13319 | Did n''t you? |
13319 | Did you never hear the story of the lady who flattened her nose-- sticking it into other people''s business? |
13319 | Did you see him, too? |
13319 | Did you, William? |
13319 | Did you-- er-- tell him that we intend to leave to- morrow? |
13319 | Do n''t you call that sweating? |
13319 | Do n''t you consider William much better? |
13319 | Do n''t you hear it, sir? |
13319 | Do n''t you know your old master?... |
13319 | Do n''t you want her to be happy because_ she_ is happy? |
13319 | Do you believe that you could come back here into this room and I could see you? |
13319 | Do you expect nothing to change in your house? |
13319 | Do you feel it? |
13319 | Do you know how I was cured? |
13319 | Do you know what I should like to say to your uncle? |
13319 | Do you know where Annamarie is? |
13319 | Do you know why I was sent away? |
13319 | Do you know why-- of all this household-- you are the only one to help me?... |
13319 | Do you like your new work? |
13319 | Do you mean it? |
13319 | Do you mean it? |
13319 | Do you mean to tell me that any young girl should be freer? |
13319 | Do you really believe such stuff? |
13319 | Do you remember the clown that sang:"Uncle Rat has gone to town?" |
13319 | Do you think he could have seen Uncle Peter? |
13319 | Do you think it did n''t get on my nerves? |
13319 | Doctor, you''ve seen a good many cross to the other world; tell me-- did you ever see one of them come back-- one? |
13319 | Does the whole damned town know it? |
13319 | Done for you? |
13319 | Eh? |
13319 | Eh?... |
13319 | F--? |
13319 | Free? |
13319 | Free? |
13319 | Give Katie more freedom, eh? |
13319 | Grow up to fail? |
13319 | H''m.... You both ask the same question, eh? |
13319 | Had it anything to do with my little girl? |
13319 | Happy, eh? |
13319 | Happy? |
13319 | Has it ever occurred to you that Katie is not happy? |
13319 | Has my journey been in vain?... |
13319 | Have you noticed how she''s coming out lately, James? |
13319 | Have you seen our orchids? |
13319 | He gabbed, eh? |
13319 | He tosses his cap, coat and book on the sofa._] What''s the matter? |
13319 | His eye is suddenly riveted on the telegram resting against the candlestick on the desk._] Is that telegram for me? |
13319 | His watch fob? |
13319 | How are you, Frederik? |
13319 | How are you, Mr. Hicks? |
13319 | How are your plum trees? |
13319 | How can it turn out otherwise? |
13319 | How do you do, Hartman? |
13319 | How do you feel, laddie? |
13319 | How do you know? |
13319 | How do you think I got the money? |
13319 | How ever did it find its way here? |
13319 | How is he, Doctor? |
13319 | How would you mount it?''" |
13319 | How''s William? |
13319 | How? |
13319 | However, I think I''ve done away with them, for the whole town understands that Katie has n''t a penny-- doesn''t it, James? |
13319 | Hy''re you, Mrs. Batholommey? |
13319 | Hy''re, Henry? |
13319 | I know you''ve set your heart upon her marrying Frederik, and all that sort of nonsense, but will it work? |
13319 | I mean-- what would Katie''s position be in this house? |
13319 | I must know more of this--[_Pauses abruptly._] Think, William, who came to the house? |
13319 | I must n''t cry... others have troubles, too, have n''t they? |
13319 | I''ll be back in the morning.... Wo n''t you... see me to the door? |
13319 | I''m finished? |
13319 | I''ve virtually given up my business for him, and what have I got out of it? |
13319 | I-- suppose it_ is_ a little too late, is n''t it?... |
13319 | I? |
13319 | If my voice can be heard from San Francisco over the telephone, why can not a soul with a God- given force behind it dart over the entire universe? |
13319 | If not, who had the picture?... |
13319 | If she''s happy, why should I care? |
13319 | If the rest of them only knew what they''re missing, eh? |
13319 | If you can not make your presence known to me-- I know there are great difficulties-- will you try and send your message by William? |
13319 | Is Hicks willing to make it worth while? |
13319 | Is Thomas Edison greater than God? |
13319 | Is it for this you hauled us out in the rain, Frederik? |
13319 | Is it healthy-- that''s the idea-- is it healthy? |
13319 | Is it... Peter? |
13319 | Is n''t it curious... to hear your name and turn and...[_ Unconsciously, she looks in_ PETER''S_ face._] no one there? |
13319 | Is n''t it here in the home?... |
13319 | Is n''t my message any clearer to you? |
13319 | Is n''t the news splendid? |
13319 | Is that all? |
13319 | Is that clear? |
13319 | Is that so? |
13319 | Is there anything you need to- day, Katie? |
13319 | Is there no one in this house to hear me? |
13319 | Is there no second chance in this world? |
13319 | Is_ that_ what he left to_ Henry_? |
13319 | It did?... |
13319 | It popped out; did n''t it, William? |
13319 | It sounds so respectable and sane, does n''t it? |
13319 | It would be-- er-- unusual to do it now, would n''t it? |
13319 | It''s all guess work, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | James Hartman? |
13319 | James, do you know how I happened to meet Katie? |
13319 | James, it has just occurred to me-- that--[_James pauses._] What was your reason for wanting to give up your position? |
13319 | James? |
13319 | James? |
13319 | Letter?... |
13319 | May I go with you? |
13319 | May I have a drink of his plum brandy, Frederik? |
13319 | Mine? |
13319 | Mr. Frederik, where''s_ old_ Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | My hat? |
13319 | My home? |
13319 | Need you go right away-- Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Never have, eh? |
13319 | Never since? |
13319 | No letter? |
13319 | No one? |
13319 | No? |
13319 | No? |
13319 | No?... |
13319 | No?... |
13319 | Nothing remarkable in_ that_, is there? |
13319 | Now? |
13319 | Of course I do, and why not? |
13319 | Of course, she does; and why not, why not, dear friend? |
13319 | Or why did n''t he_ continue_ his work? |
13319 | Or, still worse-- to succeed-- to be famous? |
13319 | Pastor? |
13319 | Pastor? |
13319 | Perhaps you think the camera was hypnotized? |
13319 | Peter Grimm''s gardens? |
13319 | Peter, have you provided for everybody in this house? |
13319 | Really? |
13319 | Said to you, eh? |
13319 | Said to you? |
13319 | See it? |
13319 | Sell out? |
13319 | Sell out? |
13319 | Settle your worldly affairs? |
13319 | So this is the end of Peter''s great work? |
13319 | So you want to go downstairs, eh? |
13319 | Something new, eh? |
13319 | Supposing you do find her and learn that it''s all true: what do you prove? |
13319 | Swallowed up? |
13319 | Tell me, William-- you heard the Doctor say that? |
13319 | Than I_ was_? |
13319 | That little tattler? |
13319 | That you do n''t love him? |
13319 | The junk, you mean? |
13319 | The lovers are in the shadow, but_ PETER''S_ figure is marked and clear._] Why did you go away? |
13319 | The old man''s aging; do you notice it? |
13319 | The persistent personal energy must continue, or what_ is_ God? |
13319 | The question_ every man wants the answer to_: what''s to become of me--_me_--_my work_? |
13319 | Then how''d that picture get into the house? |
13319 | Then it all comes to this: are you going to live up to your promise? |
13319 | Then why tell me? |
13319 | There are kisses tangled in her hair where it curls... hundreds of them.... Are you going to let her go? |
13319 | There... you caught that.... Why ca n''t you take my message to Catherine? |
13319 | They laugh at my hat? |
13319 | Think before you speak, my boy; what did Mr. Grimm say to you? |
13319 | This is better than"Puss in Boots,"is n''t it, Katie? |
13319 | To wear a heavy laurel wreath? |
13319 | To whom does this picture belong?" |
13319 | To- morrow? |
13319 | Was Frederik the man that came to see Annamarie? |
13319 | Was William present? |
13319 | Was he? |
13319 | Was it Frederik Grimm? |
13319 | Was n''t it nice where you were? |
13319 | Was there ever a girl who did n''t cry?... |
13319 | We must show her to everybody in the house, so that everybody will say:"How in the world did she ever get here? |
13319 | We''ll print it, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | We''re all about you.... Look at the gardens: they''ve died, have n''t they? |
13319 | Well? |
13319 | Were n''t you too small? |
13319 | Were you speaking of-- of ghosts, Doctor? |
13319 | What I really wish to consult you about is this: should n''t the card we''re going to send out have a narrow black border? |
13319 | What I wish to ask is this: would you have any objection to the name of Mrs. Batholommey being used as a witness? |
13319 | What are you doing here? |
13319 | What are you doing? |
13319 | What are you talking about, William? |
13319 | What chance has the beginner compared with a fellow who knew his business before he was born? |
13319 | What chance have I had to answer? |
13319 | What claim has he on you-- on any of us? |
13319 | What could he say? |
13319 | What do you intend to do? |
13319 | What do you know? |
13319 | What do you mean, Doctor? |
13319 | What do you mean, Uncle Peter? |
13319 | What do you mean? |
13319 | What has he been saying to you? |
13319 | What is it, after all? |
13319 | What is it? |
13319 | What is it? |
13319 | What made you think someone called you? |
13319 | What makes you say that? |
13319 | What makes you think he was delirious? |
13319 | What man made Annamarie cry? |
13319 | What man? |
13319 | What more can a fellow do to earn his money? |
13319 | What occurred the last time you saw her? |
13319 | What of to- morrow? |
13319 | What question? |
13319 | What should I know of her? |
13319 | What''s that? |
13319 | What''s the matter? |
13319 | What, William? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What?... |
13319 | What?... |
13319 | What_ will_ become of William? |
13319 | When I''m a little old leaf ready to curl up, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | When a bachelor wants to order a three- rib roast, who''s to eat it? |
13319 | When did you last see Annamarie? |
13319 | When, William? |
13319 | Where are you going? |
13319 | Where are you? |
13319 | Where do you get these extraordinary ideas? |
13319 | Where''s Uncle? |
13319 | Where''s the bosom of Abraham, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Where''s your mother, William? |
13319 | Where? |
13319 | Where? |
13319 | Who can tell? |
13319 | Who could resist her smiles? |
13319 | Who gets up at dawn to eat breakfast with me? |
13319 | Who is arranging the marriage, you or I? |
13319 | Who knocked? |
13319 | Who opened the door? |
13319 | Who puts flowers on my desk every day? |
13319 | Who sees that I have my second cup of coffee? |
13319 | Who tore it up? |
13319 | Who was he? |
13319 | Who''s got to die? |
13319 | Who''s in this room? |
13319 | Who? |
13319 | Who_ was_ the other one? |
13319 | Whose business is it? |
13319 | Why I quarrelled with your uncle? |
13319 | Why are you unhappy, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Why ca n''t a telegram travel on a fence instead of on a wire? |
13319 | Why did you ask it? |
13319 | Why did you come back, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Why did you do it? |
13319 | Why did you lie to me? |
13319 | Why did you tell Marta that you''d had no message-- no news? |
13319 | Why did you tell me that you''d never seen her since she went away? |
13319 | Why do n''t you have more light? |
13319 | Why do n''t you tell the name, William? |
13319 | Why do you ask me? |
13319 | Why do you dislike him, Frederik? |
13319 | Why do you dislike him? |
13319 | Why do you hate that child? |
13319 | Why do you want to stay in this old cottage-- with its candles and lamps and shadows? |
13319 | Why do you wish to ship me off to Florida? |
13319 | Why does he always look towards that door? |
13319 | Why have n''t you told Frederik the truth? |
13319 | Why is he unhappy?... |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not_ now_? |
13319 | Why sell? |
13319 | Why should you carry out your uncle''s plans? |
13319 | Why should you worry over William? |
13319 | Why? |
13319 | Will nobody hear me? |
13319 | Will you have a glass of my plum brandy? |
13319 | Will you?... |
13319 | William, I want you to try to understand that you''re to help me, will you? |
13319 | William, do you think you could deliver a message for me... a very important message?... |
13319 | William, what makes you think that Mr. Grimm is in this room? |
13319 | William? |
13319 | With that sick child? |
13319 | Wo n''t you try and take it for me, eh? |
13319 | Would n''t you like a cup, Doctor? |
13319 | Would you mind handing me that telegram? |
13319 | Would you sell your great, great grandfather? |
13319 | Yes, Andrew?... |
13319 | Yes, yes....[_ Listens at the''phone._] The dear old man told you his plans never failed, eh? |
13319 | Yes, you_ did_ promise Uncle Peter you''d marry me, did n''t you? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | You ask me why? |
13319 | You ca n''t call Sir Charles Crookes, the inventor of Crookes Tubes,--a waster? |
13319 | You do n''t feel well, you say? |
13319 | You feel what I am saying.... You could n''t live without her, could you? |
13319 | You heard the Doctor say that? |
13319 | You mean that I-- You mean that I might... die? |
13319 | You mean that-- you-- you love her? |
13319 | You really do believe, Doctor, that the dead can come back, do n''t you? |
13319 | You remember many things, William... things that happened when you lived with Annamarie, do n''t you? |
13319 | You simply must live where things grow, must n''t you, James? |
13319 | You think so, my boy? |
13319 | You''ll be glad to see me, dear, wo n''t you? |
13319 | You''re a terrible man for planning, Peter; but what have you done? |
13319 | You''re looking me in the face, Andrew; can you see me? |
13319 | You''re not afraid now, William? |
13319 | You''re thinking of it, are n''t you? |
13319 | You''re very contented here with me, are you not? |
13319 | You''ve noticed it, too? |
13319 | You, too? |
13319 | Your uncle? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK,_ amused, listens in silence._] What should I be now-- a rough old fellow-- a bachelor-- without youth in my house, eh? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK_ gives_ PETER_ a glance as though to say,"Now, do you believe it? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK_ is silent._] What are you going to do for William? |
13319 | [ JAMES_ politely thanks him, but does n''t take one._] It''s a pleasure to talk to some one who''s interested; and you_ are_ interested, James? |
13319 | [ MARTA_ re- enters from_ WILLIAM''S_ room and closing the door comes down the stairs and passes off._] What_ are_ we to do with that child? |
13319 | [ PETER_ eyes him-- a faint smile on his lips._] If I got my price? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ has taken another piece of cake which he nibbles at-- now holding a piece in each hand._] Pretty substantial dream, eh? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ lays down the cake and, clasping his hands, thinks._ PETER_ answers his thoughts._] What? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ nods assent._]_ Old_ Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ nods._] Sure of that, William? |
13319 | [_ A rap sounds._] Who will that be at this hour?... |
13319 | [_ After a long pause._] Is it settled, sir? |
13319 | [_ After a shorter pause._] Is n''t she very young to marry, sir? |
13319 | [_ Alone._]"What shall the wedding breakfast be? |
13319 | [_ Aloud._] James, will you have dinner with us to- day? |
13319 | [_ Amazed._] Selling out? |
13319 | [_ Amused._] Why, James, what do you know about girls? |
13319 | [_ As though he recognizes the unseen guests._] I''ve been gone so long that you came for me, eh? |
13319 | [_ Astonished._] Sell? |
13319 | [_ At the''phone._] How are you, my old friend?... |
13319 | [_ Changing suddenly._] James: why do n''t you try to please Uncle Peter Grimm? |
13319 | [_ Covering the letter with his hand._] From whom?... |
13319 | [_ Echoing the_ DOCTOR''S_ words._] A sensitive? |
13319 | [_ Echoing._] Do I propose to live that long? |
13319 | [_ Echoing_ HICKS''_ words._] What would he say if he knew? |
13319 | [_ Enraged, raising his voice._] What? |
13319 | [_ Entering with a lamp._] Did someone call me? |
13319 | [_ Entering._] Did you wish to see me? |
13319 | [_ Enters-- evidently highly wrought up by the events of the evening._] Who was that? |
13319 | [_ For the first time fully realizing the situation._] Oh, must we stand or fall by the mistakes we made here and the deed we did? |
13319 | [_ Gives_ WILLIAM_ some pennies as he goes._] How he shoots up, eh, Marta? |
13319 | [_ Good- naturedly._] James? |
13319 | [_ Gruffly._] Why are n''t you in bed? |
13319 | [_ Her curiosity aroused._] What is it, Uncle?... |
13319 | [_ Hesitates._] What do you mean? |
13319 | [_ Hesitating._] Are you certain? |
13319 | [_ Ignoring her._] What did you tell Mr. Grimm when he asked you? |
13319 | [_ In a low voice._] Where''s Catherine? |
13319 | [_ Interested._] Yes? |
13319 | [_ Jots down a couple of notes._] Did you ever have this impulse before-- to give up Catherine-- to let her have the cottage? |
13319 | [_ Laughing._] Ah, Uncle Peter, have I made you take a liking to all the rest of the ladies? |
13319 | [_ Lightly._] Yes, yes, yes, let others take my work.... Why should_ we_ care? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] Bad, eh? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] To- night? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] You''ll come to- night?... |
13319 | [_ Looking towards the door of the office._] Did Hartman come? |
13319 | [_ Looks about uneasily, then glances towards the door leading into the hall._] Who is at the door? |
13319 | [_ Losing his temper._] What do you mean? |
13319 | [_ Nobody enters._] Where''s a light? |
13319 | [_ Not understanding the last word-- puzzled._] Eh? |
13319 | [_ Not understanding._] But what could Peter have to say to_ me_ concerning Annamarie? |
13319 | [_ Noticing an old gold- headed walking- stick in the hall._] Oh, er-- what are you going to do with all the old man''s family relics, Frederik? |
13319 | [_ Opening the door._] Yes? |
13319 | [_ Picks up the receiver._] Hello?... |
13319 | [_ Pointing to a glass of water on a tray._] Can I have a drink of water, please? |
13319 | [_ Pooh- poohing._] Crying? |
13319 | [_ Prints a kiss on her cheek._] Ca n''t you think I''m with you, dear child? |
13319 | [_ Puts his hand on_ PETER''S_ hand, which is still on his head._] But where''s your hand? |
13319 | [_ Putting his hand on_ WILLIAM''S_ head._] Now?... |
13319 | [_ Puzzled-- awed-- his voice almost dropping to a whisper._] How do you account for it, Doctor? |
13319 | [_ Questioningly-- dazed._] Dead? |
13319 | [_ Raises his hand for silence._] How did he look, William? |
13319 | [_ Recovering._] What''d he leave me? |
13319 | [_ Rising quickly._] Yes, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | [_ Rising to get his shawl-- gruffly._] Thought over what I told you concerning this marriage? |
13319 | [_ Seeing_ FREDERIK_ lay down the paper and rise._] Is that all? |
13319 | [_ She notices the lamp._] The night lamp for William? |
13319 | [_ Signing the letter._] Happy? |
13319 | [_ Slaps_ FREDERIK_ on the back._] You''re satisfied now, I hope? |
13319 | [_ Snapping his fingers._] What was the last offer the old man refused from Hicks, of Rochester, Jim? |
13319 | [_ Sticking her head in the door._] Ready for coffee? |
13319 | [_ Still dazed._] A prayer- book.... Me? |
13319 | [_ Suddenly changing-- dazed._] His prayer- book... me? |
13319 | [_ Suddenly noticing that_ CATHERINE_ seems more cheerful._] What''s happened? |
13319 | [_ Surprised._] Eh? |
13319 | [_ Surprised._] What? |
13319 | [_ Suspiciously._] Has Hartman been talking to you? |
13319 | [_ Taking her hand, drawing her towards the table with a change of manner._] Have you seen all the wedding presents, Kitty? |
13319 | [_ Taking the boy on his knee._] What makes you think Peter Grimm is in this room? |
13319 | [_ Taking the letter._] Prescribed? |
13319 | [_ The_ DOCTOR_ turns, facing_ PETER,_ looking directly at him as he puts his hand in his coat pocket._] You heard that, eh?... |
13319 | [_ Then changing._] Is it-- er-- a good offer? |
13319 | [_ To himself._] What in the world is the matter with me to- night? |
13319 | [_ Very low, as though afraid to interrupt_ WILLIAM''S_ train of thought._] What other? |
13319 | [_ Who has been looking down at the letter-- suddenly feeling_ PETER''S_ presence._] Who''s that? |
13319 | [_ Who has entered, saying carelessly to_ JAMES_ as he passes him._] Hy''re you, Jim? |
13319 | [_ With suppressed excitement-- half to herself._] Why are you afraid of him? |
13319 | [_ Without looking up, his hands folded in his lap._] Take me back with you, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | _ Can_ it be true? |
13319 | _ Our_ gardens? |
13319 | _ in a satisfied way, brushes the crumbs off his lap, and sits back in his chair._] Have you had enough? |
13319 | whatever put this notion into your head? |
37857 | ''Honesty is the best policy,''is it? |
37857 | A detective? 37857 A panther?" |
37857 | A waterspout? |
37857 | And I ca n''t be of any use to you there? |
37857 | And come back the same day? |
37857 | And did n''t they see the ghosts at all? |
37857 | And do you see those valises in the rack directly in front him? 37857 And do you wish me to take charge of the rental of your blocks of buildings?" |
37857 | And go out there and take possession of that property while there is another man waiting for it? |
37857 | And he does n''t come forward to claim his money? 37857 And how about your friend, here, John Sheldon?" |
37857 | And is the gold as thick as they say it is-- so thick that one can pick it up with his hands? |
37857 | And shall you keep still about this? |
37857 | And there was not a sign of gold about it? |
37857 | And what will we do if somebody else is working it? |
37857 | And what will_ you_ do? |
37857 | And what would I be doing in the meantime? |
37857 | And which of you boys was it who bid on the''old horse?'' |
37857 | And you are willing to give me half the contents of that box if I will get it for you? |
37857 | And you lacked only two feet of being rich? |
37857 | And you want the twenty thousand dollars changed, so that it will be subject to their order? |
37857 | And you? |
37857 | Are the boys plumb crazy? 37857 Are the ghosts so awful thick up there?" |
37857 | Are we not going to eat at all? |
37857 | Are you all fast there? |
37857 | Are you discharged, Julian? |
37857 | Are you fellows decided on that matter yet? |
37857 | Are you going down to- day? |
37857 | Are you going to see Mr. Wiggins about it? |
37857 | Are you going to stay here this winter? |
37857 | Are you not deciding on this matter suddenly? |
37857 | Are you still sorry that I bid on that''old horse?'' |
37857 | Are you sure it is gold in here, and not something else? |
37857 | Are you sure the mine is up here? |
37857 | Are you sure this key will open his door? |
37857 | But how are you going to steal their valises, if they have any? |
37857 | But if it goes under a cloud-- then what? |
37857 | But if that is the case, why did they not jump him on the way here? 37857 But if you ca n''t mingle with them as you did then, how are you going to find out about the haunted mine?" |
37857 | But suppose they see me? |
37857 | By George, Jack,said Julian, when he went home that night,"did I not tell you that that box was ours? |
37857 | By the way, whose name shall I sign to it-- yours or mine? |
37857 | Ca n''t we turn them loose? |
37857 | Can we get anything to eat along here? |
37857 | Can we help you a little? |
37857 | Can you tell when I did it? |
37857 | Claus, where are you going? 37857 Could n''t we tie them up?" |
37857 | Could not the sound they heard have been occasioned by bats that had been disturbed while trying to take a rest? |
37857 | Did anybody think a murder had been committed somewhere around there? |
37857 | Did n''t I tell you that if anybody came in here to look for that box while we were not here it would be Casper Nevins, and nobody else? |
37857 | Did n''t you see the trail we made in coming down? |
37857 | Did n''t you tell the men what we had done and all about the dust we had? |
37857 | Did not the lawyer say that he did not look for that? 37857 Did the boys get ten thousand dollars in two weeks?" |
37857 | Did the man find anything of value in your valises? |
37857 | Did they-- did they see the ghosts? |
37857 | Did those men see anything? |
37857 | Did you agree to hunt up this man Haberstro? |
37857 | Did you drop your roll down at Denver and come back to get more? |
37857 | Did you find many outlaws in this country when you first came here? |
37857 | Did you get our dust? |
37857 | Did you not care for your mother when she was sick? |
37857 | Did you not claim to be our uncle? |
37857 | Did you not nurse him while he was sick? |
37857 | Did you say anything to Mr. Wiggins about it? |
37857 | Did you say anything to the man about our claim up there? |
37857 | Did you see them go? |
37857 | Did you see them? |
37857 | Did you shoot them? |
37857 | Did you tell Mr. Wiggins about the way Casper acted? |
37857 | Disappointed over not finding that wealth, were you? |
37857 | Do I speak to Mr. Wiggins? 37857 Do n''t you see them hung up there, in plain sight?" |
37857 | Do n''t you suppose we know all that? 37857 Do n''t you wish you had not promised to go up there?" |
37857 | Do you believe you can buy another like it? |
37857 | Do you intend to make another effort to get the money? |
37857 | Do you know of a man of the name of Winkleman? |
37857 | Do you know that I have been thinking of something? 37857 Do you know that I looked upon it as gone when he first came here and handed out his card?" |
37857 | Do you know that I rather like that man? 37857 Do you know where it is?" |
37857 | Do you know where that man lives? |
37857 | Do you know, I have been on the watch for them fellows to get into a squabble of some kind before we saw the last of them? |
37857 | Do you mean that all comes to us? |
37857 | Do you mean the haunted mine? |
37857 | Do you never get tired of this business? |
37857 | Do you really think so? |
37857 | Do you remember a telegraph boy who was in here several months ago and bought a combination lock to fit his door? |
37857 | Do you remember how the key looked? |
37857 | Do you see that red- faced man sitting on the right- hand side? |
37857 | Do you see the rest of the papers there in that box? 37857 Do you suppose we will take any man''s word for that? |
37857 | Do you think I am afraid? |
37857 | Do you think of any questions you would like to ask us? |
37857 | Do you think their ears could be deceived, as well as their eyes? |
37857 | Do you think they can whip all these men? |
37857 | Do you think we tried every plan to get it? |
37857 | Do you think you could recognize me if you should chance to meet me again anywhere? |
37857 | Do you want this watch? |
37857 | Do you want to see me? |
37857 | Does he know about the box? |
37857 | Does he want us to work that mine or not? |
37857 | Does the noise of the bell frighten the game? |
37857 | Does you want to see somebody on dis train? |
37857 | Does your dirt pan out any better than it did last summer? |
37857 | Eh? 37857 Eh? |
37857 | Eh? 37857 Everybody kept still about the haunted mine, I suppose?" |
37857 | Everything? |
37857 | Go on-- what next? |
37857 | Grub- stake us? |
37857 | Grumbling again, are you? |
37857 | Had you not better stay with us here on the Flat? 37857 Has Casper got many friends among the boys of your office?" |
37857 | Has that Dutchman been around here? |
37857 | Have a cigar? 37857 Have any of the boys made their pile?" |
37857 | Have n''t I carried my telegraphic dispatches in as little time as anybody? 37857 Have you a cigar handy?" |
37857 | Have you a cigar? |
37857 | Have you a compass with you? |
37857 | Have you advertised for that man of yours yet? |
37857 | Have you anybody on a string that you are trying to make some money out of? |
37857 | Have you forgotten our mine? |
37857 | Have you given it up, too? |
37857 | Have you got something better on hand? |
37857 | Have you had any breakfast? |
37857 | Have you jotted down the street and number? |
37857 | Have you money with which to get breakfast to- morrow? |
37857 | Have you young fellows any money? |
37857 | He had n''t? |
37857 | He stole it, did n''t he? 37857 Here are a couple of tenderfeet, come away out West from-- where did you come from?" |
37857 | How am I going to get back to the city without money? |
37857 | How are you going to do that? |
37857 | How are you going to get your own luggage down? |
37857 | How do you account for that man in the mine up the country who always gets farther and farther away every time anybody tries to touch him? |
37857 | How do you account for that? |
37857 | How do you feel this morning? |
37857 | How do you know that I belong in the States? |
37857 | How do you know that? |
37857 | How far are they away from here? |
37857 | How far do_ you_ say it is, John? |
37857 | How far off are those peaks from here? |
37857 | How have you boys been, out here, so far away from home? 37857 How in the world did you get the mules and horses up there?" |
37857 | How is the brokerage business to- day? 37857 How is this, Casper?" |
37857 | How long before you will be paid? |
37857 | How long did you have to stay there? |
37857 | How much do you call enough? |
37857 | How much have you? |
37857 | How much will you charge me? 37857 I do n''t know how to go to work at it-- do you?" |
37857 | I do n''t know what he has been doing,said the boy;"do you?" |
37857 | I do n''t know whether the express clerks will want us to identify ourselves before they give us that box, but if they do-- then what? |
37857 | I tell you, he is big enough to scare anybody-- is he not? |
37857 | I think I would do this up and send it by express-- wouldn''t you? |
37857 | I wonder how they got that mine, in the first place? |
37857 | I wonder if I shall be the way he is? |
37857 | I wonder if it was Claus? |
37857 | I wonder if that is the way all Westerners talk? 37857 I wonder if there is any gold up there?" |
37857 | I wonder if there was a detective in there while I was at the office? 37857 I wonder what the poor fellow will do now?" |
37857 | I wonder what those men were thinking of when they started that story about this mine being haunted? |
37857 | If he sets the police onto me-- good gracious, what should I do? 37857 If he should ask us some questions that we could not answer-- then what?" |
37857 | If our grub stops, where are we going to get more? |
37857 | If they thought so much of the box, why did n''t they buy it in the first place? |
37857 | If, after waiting a few days, we do n''t hear from Mr. Haberstro or any of his kin, suppose I go to Mr. Wiggins with it? 37857 In America?" |
37857 | Is Mr. Fay in? |
37857 | Is a hundred thousand dollars such a sum in your eyes that you can afford to be merry over it? |
37857 | Is it as far as that? |
37857 | Is it gold or not? |
37857 | Is it the ghosts you are looking for? |
37857 | Is that all you have to tell? |
37857 | Is that any way for you to save your money? |
37857 | Is the boss mechanic anywhere about? |
37857 | Is there anything you do n''t stand in fear of out here? 37857 Is this our car?" |
37857 | Is this the Western Union Telegraph office? |
37857 | It is not iron pyrites, is it? |
37857 | It looks dark down there, does it not? |
37857 | It would not be of any use for me to ask for a letter of recommendation, would it? |
37857 | Jack often found fault with me for going to that office, but I struck it once,--didn''t I? |
37857 | Jack, did you fall out of the bucket? |
37857 | Jack, what do you mean? |
37857 | Jack, why do n''t you say something? |
37857 | Jack,said Julian, turning to his companion,"are you sorry, now, that I went to the express office and invested in that''old horse''?" |
37857 | Julian, have you some news about that box? |
37857 | Know him? |
37857 | No horses? 37857 No, sir,"replied Julian;"we could hardly go out there and come back in a week-- could we?" |
37857 | Now the next question is, are the papers all here? |
37857 | Now, Julian, are you sure you can hold me up? |
37857 | Now, boys, is there anything we can do for you before we bid you good- bye? |
37857 | Now, the question is, does the mine pay anything? |
37857 | Now, what are you going to say to him? |
37857 | Now, where is that other sound you heard? |
37857 | Now, whom have you to prove that you bought this''old horse''at the express office? |
37857 | Oh, boys, you surely have n''t made up your minds to go up to that mine next spring, have you? |
37857 | Oh, you want to know something about it, now, do n''t you? |
37857 | Pete, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Say, Jack, there''s more houses than wigwams here, is there not? |
37857 | Say, Julian,remarked Jack, as they stood by the stream washing their hands and faces,"why do n''t Banta talk to us the way he usually does? |
37857 | Say, Pete, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Shake hands with your uncle, why do n''t you? |
37857 | Shall I take charge of it for you? 37857 So you did n''t want that fellow to claim relationship with you?" |
37857 | That is just what I was afraid of,said Julian;"but I reckon iron pyrites comes in lumps, do n''t it? |
37857 | That man? |
37857 | That red- faced man kept his eyes on us, did n''t he? 37857 That was a pretty way to do business, was n''t it?" |
37857 | That will keep you going, wo n''t it? |
37857 | The boss mechanic? |
37857 | The gold- mine and all? |
37857 | Them mountains? |
37857 | Then the mine is deserted? |
37857 | Then we have purchased everything we want, have we? |
37857 | Then what made you go there in the first place? |
37857 | Then why did he not say something about it? 37857 Then you ca n''t get it for me?" |
37857 | Then you have never been down in it? |
37857 | Then, would it not be worth while for you to write to some of your friends there and get some letters of recommendation? 37857 There were two lions there-- how did you get the other one?" |
37857 | There; how will that do? |
37857 | These are ours, ai n''t they? |
37857 | They did not get a foothold here, did they? |
37857 | They have? 37857 Those are the ones, are they not?" |
37857 | To me? |
37857 | Well, Claus, you slipped up on one thing,said Julian;"you did n''t get any of that block of buildings-- did you?" |
37857 | Well, I could n''t help it-- could I? 37857 Well, I want to go up there, and who can I get to act as my guide?" |
37857 | Well, Jack,said Julian, as he buttoned his coat,"what do you think of our mine? |
37857 | Well, boys, are you going to leave us? |
37857 | Well, partner, how do you come on? |
37857 | Well, sir, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Well, sir, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Well, sir, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Well, sir, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Well, sir, what do you think of that? |
37857 | Well, sir, you have done it, have you not? |
37857 | Well, sir, you saw them, did you not? |
37857 | Well, suppose we do; what will we raise them on? 37857 Well, what about the men?" |
37857 | Well, what did you hear this time? |
37857 | Well, where is the money to come from? |
37857 | Well, why do n''t you go on with it? |
37857 | Well, why do n''t you pick up some money and go in yourself? 37857 Well, you have been to that old express office again and invested some of your hard earnings in''old horse,''have n''t you?" |
37857 | Well, you have found a place, have you? |
37857 | Well? |
37857 | Were the boys all right? |
37857 | Were they animals? |
37857 | Were you in earnest the other day when you said that if you had a chance to steal a hundred thousand dollars you would try it on? |
37857 | What a- doing? |
37857 | What about him? |
37857 | What about the box? |
37857 | What about the ghosts? |
37857 | What am I going to do now? |
37857 | What are these? |
37857 | What are you going to do with us? |
37857 | What did I tell you? |
37857 | What did he want to go after? |
37857 | What did he want to know that for? 37857 What did it sound like?" |
37857 | What did they see? |
37857 | What did you men do here last summer? |
37857 | What do you call that? |
37857 | What do you care for spies? |
37857 | What do you know about Casper? |
37857 | What do you mean by applying that name to me? |
37857 | What do you mean by that pantomime? |
37857 | What do you mean by that? 37857 What do you mean by that?" |
37857 | What do you suppose it was that those fellows saw in that mine? |
37857 | What do you think of that, Pete? |
37857 | What do you think of that? |
37857 | What do you think of that? |
37857 | What do you think of the situation now? |
37857 | What do you want to know for? |
37857 | What do you want to study? |
37857 | What else can I do? 37857 What else could we do?" |
37857 | What good will a revolver do you? |
37857 | What good will it do him to go on to Denver? 37857 What have these young men been doing?" |
37857 | What have you in this pack? |
37857 | What if you should chance to miss your way? |
37857 | What is in it? |
37857 | What is it, Julian? |
37857 | What is it? 37857 What is it?" |
37857 | What is that? |
37857 | What is the matter with those fellows? |
37857 | What is the matter with you, any way? |
37857 | What is the use of hiding it? |
37857 | What is up there, anyway? |
37857 | What kind of a looking man was he? 37857 What lawyer, and where has he been?" |
37857 | What made you do that, Jack? |
37857 | What made you let them go there, if you knew the mine was haunted? |
37857 | What made you say police at all? 37857 What made you think of that?" |
37857 | What must I do that for? |
37857 | What sort of a looking man was he? |
37857 | What sort of relationship do you bear to the two boys? |
37857 | What thing? |
37857 | What was he going to do when he got there? |
37857 | What was that? |
37857 | What will we do? |
37857 | What would you do if somebody should catch you along the trail, somewhere? 37857 What''s that?" |
37857 | What''s the matter? |
37857 | What''s the news to- day? 37857 What''s the news?" |
37857 | What''s the reason you do n''t? |
37857 | What''s the use of fooling away your time with that stuff? |
37857 | When do you start? |
37857 | Where are those bags? |
37857 | Where are you going? |
37857 | Where are you going? |
37857 | Where are you stopping? |
37857 | Where did he want to go? |
37857 | Where does he stay, principally? |
37857 | Where is it you are going? |
37857 | Where is that ten dollars you got out of the telegraph office when your time was up? |
37857 | Where were you when this man Winkleman was sick? 37857 Where''s your home?" |
37857 | Where''s your valise? |
37857 | Where_ is_ your mine? |
37857 | Which one of you boys is Julian Gray? |
37857 | Which one of you is Julian Gray? |
37857 | Which way did the noise come from? |
37857 | Who are they? |
37857 | Who do you suppose are haunting it? |
37857 | Who do you suppose is going to steal it? |
37857 | Who do you think is going to rob us? |
37857 | Who do you think it was? |
37857 | Who said anything about shooting a man? |
37857 | Who shot those two men? |
37857 | Who was that man who just went out? |
37857 | Who will you go to? |
37857 | Who''s Haberstro? |
37857 | Who-- me? 37857 Why are you so anxious to find out about where we are going?" |
37857 | Why ca n''t you let it go until to- morrow? |
37857 | Why ca n''t you let us go now? |
37857 | Why did I not dig out the moment I got that box? 37857 Why did n''t they think to look in my shoe? |
37857 | Why do n''t they go back farther and start another? |
37857 | Why do n''t you open it, and let us see what is in it? |
37857 | Why do you take the bell off when you want to go hunting with the mare? |
37857 | Why, Claus, you are not going in there? |
37857 | Why, the box is your own, ai n''t it? |
37857 | Why, the box was sold to you, was it not? |
37857 | Why, will we have to fight for it? |
37857 | Wiggins? |
37857 | Will it last you two weeks? |
37857 | Will you go down into the mine when you get there? |
37857 | Would not fifty thousand do you? |
37857 | Would you? |
37857 | You are a tenderfoot, ai n''t you? |
37857 | You are going to lay in a supply of things yourselves, I suppose? |
37857 | You are here yet, are you, Banta? |
37857 | You are in a fix, are n''t you? |
37857 | You are not going out there to- day, are you? |
37857 | You are on hand, like a bad five- dollar bill-- ain''t you? 37857 You are sure you have n''t got any about your clothes? |
37857 | You are the one? 37857 You are? |
37857 | You can spend all that money yourselves, can you? 37857 You did not expect to get it-- did you?" |
37857 | You do n''t believe everything he said, do you? |
37857 | You do n''t mind if I go and work my old claim, do you? 37857 You do n''t think of working there, do you?" |
37857 | You do n''t want anything? |
37857 | You do n''t? |
37857 | You got it, did n''t you? |
37857 | You have n''t got another ten cents, have you? 37857 You have? |
37857 | You have? |
37857 | You hope so, too-- don''t you, Jack? |
37857 | You know something about it-- don''t you? 37857 You know that haunted mine, do n''t you?" |
37857 | You know which way is east, do n''t you? 37857 You meant to catch them, did you? |
37857 | You were so busy with your own thoughts that you did n''t see how I was pumping him, did you? 37857 You will be around here before you go?" |
37857 | You will hear scurrying of feet-- What was that? |
37857 | You will tell me once for all-- what? |
37857 | You wo n''t think it hard of me if I hit him a time or two? |
37857 | You''ll let us go before that comes off? |
37857 | You''ve been into my room when I was not there? 37857 Your''three times and out''did not amount to anything-- did it?" |
37857 | ( This was a miner''s way of asking"Who''s dead?") |
37857 | 8 Station and ask the police to send a man up there and search him?" |
37857 | Ai n''t that so, boys?" |
37857 | And another thing-- do I have to pay you for waiting until spring?" |
37857 | And he could have seen them if he had a light, could he not?" |
37857 | And what should he say when he got home? |
37857 | And where were Julian and Jack all this while? |
37857 | Are you going already? |
37857 | Are you not going to put on another shirt?" |
37857 | Are you thinking of going out to Dutch Flat to try your hand at it? |
37857 | Banta?" |
37857 | Banta?" |
37857 | But first, ca n''t I get that box for my own? |
37857 | But if you are going to hire us-- you will be gone three or four months, wo n''t you?" |
37857 | But what is the matter with you?" |
37857 | But what shall I do when I get back to St. Louis? |
37857 | But what were you going to say?" |
37857 | But why was it that Casper got so mad, and threw his cigar spitefully down upon the pavement? |
37857 | But you''ll remember that I did n''t say a word about it-- won''t you?" |
37857 | But, in the first place, where are your revolvers?" |
37857 | Can you boys find the way back to your hotel?" |
37857 | Can you do it?" |
37857 | Did Mr. Wiggins suppose that he was going to spend all his month''s wages in two days? |
37857 | Did anybody ever hear of a fool notion like that? |
37857 | Did he get back to St. Louis in safety? |
37857 | Did he scare you out of going up there to that mine?" |
37857 | Did it ever occur to you that some of those people who saw me buy the box at the express office would come up here to take it?" |
37857 | Did n''t I pay thirty cents of my hard earnings for it?" |
37857 | Did you have a fair chance at his heart?" |
37857 | Did you see him?" |
37857 | Did you see how neatly all those students were dressed? |
37857 | Did you see the boys?" |
37857 | Did you?" |
37857 | Do I hear any more? |
37857 | Do n''t it you, Pete?" |
37857 | Do n''t you give that box up; do you hear me?" |
37857 | Do n''t you hear it?" |
37857 | Do n''t you see his face? |
37857 | Do n''t you see the slips in our caps?" |
37857 | Do you gather much of this stuff?" |
37857 | Do you know what sort of a key he has to fit his door?" |
37857 | Do you know where Salisbury''s hotel is?" |
37857 | Do you mean that he will come down on us while we are up at the mine?" |
37857 | Do you recognize these pictures?" |
37857 | Do you think it is ours sure enough?" |
37857 | Do you want to invest some property in a gold- mine?" |
37857 | Do you want to see me? |
37857 | Do you wish me to take charge of it for you?" |
37857 | Does Casper Nevins know all about it?" |
37857 | Does Casper know all about it?" |
37857 | Does this look like your hotel? |
37857 | Go on-- how did they treat you?" |
37857 | Had they given up all hopes of gaining possession of that hundred thousand dollars? |
37857 | Has you got a ticket?" |
37857 | Have you any money?" |
37857 | Have you any money?" |
37857 | Have you anybody here in St. Louis to whom you can recommend us? |
37857 | Have you been anywhere near this mine that we are going to work?" |
37857 | Have you been out to look at your gold- mine?" |
37857 | Have you got all the blood off? |
37857 | Have you made any money?" |
37857 | Have you made yourself rich by washing out the last bucket of earth I sent up?" |
37857 | Have you the property all in your hands?" |
37857 | He has not any closet in his room that I know of, and who knows but that he may have put that box in his trunk? |
37857 | He is bound to have that box, is he not? |
37857 | He stopped in front of the door, and called out to somebody he left below,"Does Mr. Julian Gray live here? |
37857 | He talked pretty readily, did he not?" |
37857 | He-- he is n''t dead, is he?" |
37857 | How do you know?" |
37857 | How high is that city above the sea- level?" |
37857 | How is he going to get the property, then?" |
37857 | How much money have you got in bank, anyway?" |
37857 | How, then, did Claus know anything about it? |
37857 | I got it, too----""You did? |
37857 | I guess the_ Republican_ is as good a paper as any, is n''t it?" |
37857 | I guess you are a tenderfoot-- ain''t you?" |
37857 | I remember that several years ago I was waiting for a partner of mine who had gone away to prospect a mine----""What was that?" |
37857 | I shall need a cigar once in a while, wo n''t I?" |
37857 | I suppose you have plenty of friends here to whom you can refer?" |
37857 | I tell you once for all----""Well, why do n''t you go on?" |
37857 | I tell you that bangs me; do n''t it you, Pete?" |
37857 | I wonder how they felt when they found their valises gone? |
37857 | I wonder if we are ever going to see the last of that man?" |
37857 | I''ve got one for you, Jack, from your boss; what do you call him?" |
37857 | If I killed him at once, how did he come to jump so far? |
37857 | If he charged that way for advising a man to keep out of law, what price would he demand for taking care of one hundred thousand dollars? |
37857 | If they had seen what made the noise, they would have been apt to shoot-- wouldn''t they?" |
37857 | If they wanted the box, why did they not buy it in the first place?" |
37857 | If they were worth anything do n''t you suppose that the people to whom they were addressed would have come after them? |
37857 | If we make a few holes in the skins by a slip of our knives, who cares?" |
37857 | If you think this Mr----what do you call him?" |
37857 | Is there any money in this thing you have to propose?" |
37857 | Is there much more of that lead down there?" |
37857 | Is this all you have made since you have been here?" |
37857 | Is this all you have to ease a man''s appetite? |
37857 | It is pretty cold up there in the mountains-- is it not?" |
37857 | Jack, is Claus your uncle?" |
37857 | Julian boarded the train first, and led the way along to their seats; but where were the valises they left there when they went out to breakfast? |
37857 | Louis?" |
37857 | Mr. Fay had evidently answered such questions before, for all he said in reply was,"How far do you think it is?" |
37857 | Mr. Fay listened, highly amused, and when Julian ceased speaking he said,"If you can see them, what''s the use of your being afraid? |
37857 | Now who am I going to get to hide that box for me? |
37857 | Now, I hope you fellows wo n''t object if I smoke a cigar?" |
37857 | Now, Jack, what are we going to do this winter? |
37857 | Now, Jack, when will we start?" |
37857 | Now, do you know where the business college is situated?" |
37857 | Now, he would not have used such an expression as that if he had been here in the city, would he?" |
37857 | Now, how shall we go to work to get the valises open? |
37857 | Now, what are you going to do with us?" |
37857 | Now, what can I give you?" |
37857 | Now, what did they do with their animals? |
37857 | Now, what do you want me to do?" |
37857 | Now, what is it?" |
37857 | Now, what shall I go at next?" |
37857 | Now, who have you told about it except Jack Sheldon?" |
37857 | Now, why could n''t I have bid on that box? |
37857 | Shall I go home, get my clothes, and spend the winter in Denver, or shall I go home and stay there? |
37857 | Shall we go up and try it? |
37857 | She listened in amazement, and then said:"Why, do you think you could write a book like that?" |
37857 | That is fair, is n''t it?" |
37857 | That proves others are there-- don''t it?" |
37857 | The German watched him, as he opened the door, and said to himself,"I wonder if that fellow knows what I am up to? |
37857 | The boy began by asking him,"Do you know the mine that Winkleman used to work when he was here?" |
37857 | Then he asked,"How far is Dutch Flat from here?" |
37857 | Then, perhaps you will tell me if you know anything about Dutch Flat, where there is--""Do n''t I know all about it?" |
37857 | There are no Indians out there, are there?" |
37857 | There was another thing that came into his mind every once in a while, and that was, where was his breakfast to come from? |
37857 | There was one thing that often came into their minds, and that was, What had become of Claus and Casper Nevins? |
37857 | They are a desperate lot; ai n''t they?" |
37857 | They had caught the robbers, so their dust was safe; but what were they going to do with the culprits, now that they had captured them? |
37857 | WHERE ARE THE VALISES? |
37857 | WHERE ARE THE VALISES? |
37857 | Was it work? |
37857 | We have a perfect right to work that mine, have we not?" |
37857 | We shall spend this before the winter is over, and how are we to get a hundred dollars to pay him? |
37857 | We snapped him up quicker''n a flash, and what does that man do? |
37857 | Well, did anybody follow you up to see what your name was?" |
37857 | What are you boys going to do with this?" |
37857 | What did Banta say the spirits looked like?" |
37857 | What did I do that for? |
37857 | What did I do? |
37857 | What did he say to you?" |
37857 | What did they do with them?" |
37857 | What do you care what is in those bundles? |
37857 | What do you suppose they intend to do with him?" |
37857 | What had he done?" |
37857 | What is it?" |
37857 | What is the reason that you and I have not some good friends to leave us that amount of money?" |
37857 | What is there to prevent some sharper from coming around and telling you that he is Haberstro? |
37857 | What loon has been so foolish as to grub- stake you?" |
37857 | What makes you think they would do anything else?" |
37857 | What property did he collect out there?" |
37857 | What sort of a looking man is he?" |
37857 | What sort of a looking place was Denver? |
37857 | What sort of a place did you expect to find Denver, anyway?" |
37857 | What time is it?" |
37857 | What was it?" |
37857 | What was that?" |
37857 | What will we do if this man Haberstro comes up, all on a sudden, and tells us he wants this hundred dollars?" |
37857 | What''s the matter with you, Julian? |
37857 | When do you start?" |
37857 | When you can get the packages for little or nothing, where''s the harm? |
37857 | Where are you going after you get the money?" |
37857 | Where are you going when you get the money? |
37857 | Where are your revolvers?" |
37857 | Where did you put it?" |
37857 | Where do you suppose that man Wiggins keeps the box?" |
37857 | Where does he hang out?" |
37857 | Where is it located?" |
37857 | Where is it?" |
37857 | Where is the box now?" |
37857 | Where is the man who owns this house?" |
37857 | Where was he going when he got the money? |
37857 | Where''s the money?" |
37857 | Who has passed in his checks since I have been gone?" |
37857 | Who is that? |
37857 | Who knows?" |
37857 | Who was it?" |
37857 | Who''s that coming upstairs, I wonder?" |
37857 | Why did n''t I happen into that express office and bid on that box? |
37857 | Why do n''t you grumble about that the way you did the last time we were here?" |
37857 | Why do n''t you play with somebody else?" |
37857 | Why do n''t you wish us good luck with that money we took from you?" |
37857 | Why, Casper, do you know what will become of you if you do not mend your ways? |
37857 | Wiggins?" |
37857 | Wo n''t somebody give me some more? |
37857 | Would you like to see him?" |
37857 | You are bound to have some of that money, are you not?" |
37857 | You boys do n''t know how to make a lean- to, do you? |
37857 | You did n''t see those little errors, did you?" |
37857 | You did n''t think of that, did you?" |
37857 | You did not know what was in that box when you bought it, did you?" |
37857 | You do n''t know anything about that, do you? |
37857 | You do n''t know him, do you?" |
37857 | You do n''t want to smoke more than two cigars every day, do you?" |
37857 | You have a gold- mine, have you?" |
37857 | You have money enough to pay for them, I suppose?" |
37857 | You know where he hangs out-- don''t you?" |
37857 | You know where that is?" |
37857 | You know where they sat, do n''t you?" |
37857 | You say he has not any friends on whom he can depend in the office?" |
37857 | You struck it rich once in buying''old horse,''did n''t you? |
37857 | You went up to the pool- room after you got through there? |
37857 | You were out in the mines, I suppose?" |
37857 | You''re lucky-- are you not? |
37857 | Your name is Haberstro, I believe?" |
37857 | boys,"he cried, taking down his feet and pushing chairs toward them;"you are here yet, are you? |
37857 | exclaimed Mr. Banta, stopping his horse and addressing himself to his men;"did n''t I tell you those boys would come back all right? |
37857 | he added, noting the expression that came upon Julian''s face,"you did n''t think of_ that_, did you?" |
37857 | he added, sinking his voice almost to a whisper,"you have n''t said a word to anybody about advertising for him, have you?" |
37857 | in?" |
37857 | said the boy who had once accused him of being a spy,"you have come up with a round turn, have you?" |
37857 | that he uttered every time he struck with his pick?" |
2433 | ''But frae that moment, think ye there was ony peace i''the hoose? 2433 Ah, but, do n''t you know? |
2433 | Ah, why indeed? |
2433 | Ah, why? 2433 Am I able to help others? |
2433 | An''wha may he be? |
2433 | An''what are we to think o''the man,he said,"at''s content no to un''erstan''what he was at the trible to say? |
2433 | An''what for mak this room less? |
2433 | An''what may that be ower the heid o''them?--A crest, ca''ye''t? |
2433 | An''what may ye be pleast to ca''wark? |
2433 | An''what micht ye think the probability gien they had come intil a lot o''siller whan their father dee''d? |
2433 | An''ye''ll doobtless read the Greek like yer mither- tongue? |
2433 | And after that? |
2433 | And does he stop? |
2433 | And here are thick walls, and hearts careless an timid!--Has any one ever set in earnest about finding it? |
2433 | And is n''t God a man-- and ever so much more than a man? |
2433 | And is not that what the God you believe in does every day? |
2433 | And my poor Davie? |
2433 | And ruin her, and perhaps me too, for life? |
2433 | And shall I be allowed to carry up as much as I please? |
2433 | And since then you have grown a man!--How many months has it taken? |
2433 | And they became the children of another? |
2433 | And which is she likely to take? 2433 And you do n''t want to see her?" |
2433 | Angry because you love me? |
2433 | Are n''t you glad to have such a castle all for your own-- to do what you like with, Arkie? 2433 Are there so many devils about me that an honest fellow ca n''t pray in my company?" |
2433 | Are those the good things then that the Lord says the Father will give to those that ask him? 2433 Are we safe?" |
2433 | Are ye gaein''to the kirk the day, Anerew? |
2433 | Are ye winnin''ower''t, sir? 2433 Are you certain, Sophia,"rejoined Arctura,"that it is self- assurance, and not conviction that gives him his courage?" |
2433 | Are you fond of my brother? |
2433 | Are you quite sure of what you say? |
2433 | Are you so sure we can? |
2433 | Are you suffering much, my lady? |
2433 | Are you sure of that? 2433 Are you sure,"suggested Donal,"that there was not a violin shut up with them? |
2433 | Are you troubled in your mind on the subject? |
2433 | Ashamed of giving me the chance of proving myself a true man? |
2433 | Ay, what is''t? 2433 But are there not things he can not do for us till we believe in Christ?" |
2433 | But could we love him with all our hearts if he were not altogether lovable? |
2433 | But he is not infinite in all his attributes? 2433 But hoo mak ye a livin''that w''y?" |
2433 | But how am I to put a force in operation, while I do not know whether I possess it or not? |
2433 | But how can we love those who are nothing to us? |
2433 | But how could there be an aeolian harp up here? |
2433 | But how often have you gone up and down these walks at dead of night? |
2433 | But how should sinners know what is or is not like the true God? |
2433 | But if there be creatures of God that have turned to demons, may not human souls themselves turn to demons? 2433 But may she not suppose you love her?" |
2433 | But might not that be his fault? |
2433 | But might there not be something good for us to do that we were not told of? |
2433 | But now you have the masons here, why not go on, and make a little search for the lost room? |
2433 | But now, does she not take your words of love for more than they are worth? |
2433 | But suppose I were to take that way? |
2433 | But tell me, Mr. Grant-- how would you set about it? |
2433 | But the thing is worth doing, is it not, even if we do not go so far as to pull down? |
2433 | But then-- excuse me,said Donal,"--why shouldna ye haud yer face til''t, an''work openly, i''the name o''God?" |
2433 | But there''s ae question I maun sattle afore I gang farther-- an''that''s this: am I to be less or mair nor I was afore? 2433 But what can you do with it?" |
2433 | But what first? |
2433 | But what if you are not sure that you do not agree with him? |
2433 | But what then do you call the duties of property? |
2433 | But why bother about his heid more than the rest of his bones? |
2433 | But will there not be some preparations to make? |
2433 | But would there be no objection to my using the place for such a purpose? |
2433 | But ye''re no a shepherd the noo? |
2433 | But you will, dearest? |
2433 | But,said Arctura, in a deprecating tone,"are not those houses which have more influence more important than the others?" |
2433 | But,said mistress Brookes,"beggin''yer pardon, sir, what ken ye as to what they think? |
2433 | Can the darkness be a shield? 2433 Can you ride?" |
2433 | Can you strike a light, and let me see you, Donal? |
2433 | Can you tell me anything about the people at the castle? |
2433 | Certainly not; but would he not be pleased? |
2433 | Come, Davie, I will help you: is Jesus dead, or is he alive? |
2433 | Compelled!--what should compel him? |
2433 | Could you not do it now? |
2433 | Cruel? |
2433 | Damn you? 2433 Davie told me your room was there: do you not find it cold? |
2433 | Davie,he said,"where do you fancy the first lesson in the New Testament ought to begin?" |
2433 | Did it ever occur to ye, sir,he said,"''at maybe deith micht be the first waukin''to some fowk?" |
2433 | Did ye cry, guidman? |
2433 | Did ye no? 2433 Did you ever hear anything about that little room on the stair, mistress Brookes?" |
2433 | Did you ever know a bad woman grow better? |
2433 | Did you ever know a bad woman? |
2433 | Did you ever know a good woman, my lord? |
2433 | Did you ever see a ghost? |
2433 | Didna she sweep oot the schoolroom first whan ye gaed, sir? |
2433 | Didna yer lordship promise an en''to the haill meeserable affair? |
2433 | Dinna ye see the twa reid horse? |
2433 | Do n''t you think we had better tell her all about it? |
2433 | Do n''t you think,suggested Arctura,"when you are not able to say anything, it would be better not to be present? |
2433 | Do ye ken the lass, sir-- to speak til her, I mean? |
2433 | Do you believe it? |
2433 | Do you go any time you like? |
2433 | Do you know any cause for the attack? |
2433 | Do you know why things so often come right? |
2433 | Do you know, my lady,he asked Arctura,"how the aeolian harp is placed for the wind to wake it?" |
2433 | Do you mean to marry her, my lord? |
2433 | Do you mean, go on the roof? 2433 Do you mind being left while I fetch my tools?" |
2433 | Do you not find it very stiff and formal? |
2433 | Do you not owe him justice? |
2433 | Do you not think he would just go on doing the same thing as before? |
2433 | Do you think God would have his child do anything disgraceful? 2433 Do you think he had any knowledge of this plot of his father''s?" |
2433 | Do you think if a man died for a thing, he would be likely to forget it the minute he rose again? |
2433 | Do you think it comes in all storms? |
2433 | Do you think it very silly to mind one''s dreams? |
2433 | Do you think,said Donal,"I ought to tell Simmons?" |
2433 | Do you? |
2433 | Does it need any explanation but that we loved each other? |
2433 | Does she still that same? |
2433 | Does your father often tell you a fairy- tale? |
2433 | Does your lordship think you were in the right-- either towards me or the poor animal who could not obey you because he was in torture? |
2433 | Eppy wha, said ye? |
2433 | Even to the grinding of the faces of the poor? |
2433 | Every day? |
2433 | For no haein''a hoose ower their heads? 2433 For what end were they made?" |
2433 | Gien ye come this gait again,she said,"ye''ll no gang by my door?" |
2433 | H''ard ye never that''afore, maister Grant? |
2433 | Had we not better lock the door, my lady? |
2433 | Has anything fresh happened? |
2433 | Has nothing occurred to wake a doubt in you? |
2433 | Have you attended the scripture- lesson regularly? |
2433 | Have you not suspected him of-- of using you in any way? |
2433 | Have you seen it? |
2433 | He is a man to enjoy having a secret!--But our discovery bears out what we were saying as to the likeness of house and man-- does it not? |
2433 | He wo n''t let me study as I want.--How has he interfered with you? |
2433 | Hoo ken ye that? |
2433 | Hoo ken ye the auld yerl sae weel? |
2433 | Hoo''s a''wi''yersel''? |
2433 | Hoo''s my lord, lass? |
2433 | Hoo''s things gaein''up at the castel? |
2433 | How are we to manage it, mistress Brookes? |
2433 | How can he? 2433 How can that be,"answered Davie,"when you are afraid of him? |
2433 | How can that be-- between a little boy like you, and a grown man like me? |
2433 | How can there be any other than a natural cause, my lady? 2433 How can there be free will where the first thing demanded for its existence or knowledge of itself is obedience?" |
2433 | How can you? 2433 How could I, when I do not know what they are required for? |
2433 | How could he have been cruel to her in the house of his brother? 2433 How did either of you know of my existence? |
2433 | How did he get the ring on to your wrist? |
2433 | How do you know I am afraid of him? |
2433 | How do you know I do not mean to marry her? |
2433 | How do you know it is nonsense? |
2433 | How do you know that? |
2433 | How do you know that? |
2433 | How do you know we are? |
2433 | How do you think you will do without it,Donal once rejoined,"when you find yourself bodiless in the other world?" |
2433 | How far are you going? |
2433 | How is it I find you here with this man? |
2433 | How long will he be your guardian? |
2433 | How long will you take to dress? |
2433 | How long, pray, have you loved me? |
2433 | How shall I find master Davie? |
2433 | How was it? |
2433 | How will she bear it,thought Donal;"how after such an experience, can she spend the rest of the day alone? |
2433 | How would they live? 2433 How?" |
2433 | I believe I know the house, my lord,answered Donal,"with strong iron stanchions to the lower windows, and--?" |
2433 | I ca n''t think what made me sleep so long? 2433 I canna preten''to that; but she''s weel kent throu''a''the country for a God- fearin''wuman.--An''whaur''ll ye be for the noo?" |
2433 | I confess you have the better of me.--But is there not a fallacy in your argument? |
2433 | I did not notice it before.--Do you suppose he left me here to die? |
2433 | I do n''t doubt it; but what could he have had it built for, if he was going to open the other wall? 2433 I do remember a certain thing!--Curious!--But what then as to the openin''o''''t efter?" |
2433 | I have had a good deal,he went on,"to shake my belief in the common ideas on such points.--Do you believe there is such a thing as free will?" |
2433 | I have some hope of it.--You are not frightened, my lady? |
2433 | I hope you have known me long enough,he said,"to believe I have contrived nothing?" |
2433 | I remember very well; why the deuce should I not remember? 2433 I should done better.--Where do you live?" |
2433 | I want you to go to the house for me: you do not mind going, do you? |
2433 | I want you to search a certain bureau there for some papers.--By the way, have you any news to give me about Forgue? |
2433 | I will tell my brother what you say,answered Miss Graeme, with victory in her heart-- for was it not as she had divined? |
2433 | I''ve a good hard head, thank God!--But what has become of them? |
2433 | If God be at peace,he would say to himself,"why should not I?" |
2433 | If I should say everywhere? |
2433 | If a man desires God, he can not help knowing enough of him to be capable of learning more-- else how should he desire him? 2433 If he wanted me to talk to him,"he said,"why did he tell me that about Forgue? |
2433 | If she had gone on, she might have got as good as your mother? |
2433 | If the land were of no value, would the possession of it involve duties? |
2433 | If the only way to life lay through a hair, what must you do but split it? 2433 If we do n''t, then we have n''t faith in him?" |
2433 | In what does the property consist? |
2433 | In what does the value of the land consist? |
2433 | Is he making you still, Mr. Grant? 2433 Is is not grand,"it said,"to be all day with a man like that-- talking to you and teaching you?" |
2433 | Is it a threat to warn you that your very consciousness may become a curse to you? 2433 Is it possible?" |
2433 | Is it,returned Davie,"because they were made right to begin with?" |
2433 | Is my leddy safe? |
2433 | Is n''t it just as well to read such a book? 2433 Is not Christ the same always, and is he not of one mind with God? |
2433 | Is she still-- is she-- alive? |
2433 | Is that to say God has not done his part? |
2433 | Is the factor anywhere in the running? |
2433 | Is there anything you think I could do? |
2433 | Is there no chance for Forgue then? |
2433 | Is there not a duty owing to your family? |
2433 | Is your lordship not aware of some not very pressing duty that you are neglecting to do? 2433 Isna she ower ye? |
2433 | It is near the earl''s room: is there no danger of his hearing anything? |
2433 | It will be time enough to answer that question,replied Donal,"when it changes to,''How did an aeolian harp get up here?'' |
2433 | It''s the varra place!--an''the sooner the better-- dinna ye think, my lady? |
2433 | Ken ye my mither? |
2433 | Know a bad woman? 2433 Like Abraham?" |
2433 | Look after my mare, will you? |
2433 | Maister Grant, wull ye ask a blessin''? |
2433 | May he not come here? |
2433 | May it not have been for the sake of shutting out, or hiding something? |
2433 | Mistress Brookes,said lady Arctura,"I want to have a little talk with Mr. Grant, and there is no fire in the library: may we sit here?" |
2433 | More than send his son to die for your sins? |
2433 | Mr. Grant, how could anybody make a dead man live again? |
2433 | Mr. Grant,he said,"will you help me with this passage in Xenophon?" |
2433 | Mr. Grant,said Arctura, in dread of what Davie might say next,"what do you take to be the duty of one inheriting a property? |
2433 | Must even the old titles of the country be buttressed into respectability with money? 2433 My lord,"he said,"I have given my word to the girl: would you have me disgrace your name by breaking it?" |
2433 | No, I do not: who does? |
2433 | No, sir; why should a man fear the presence of his saviour? |
2433 | No; but what then did I give you the lesson for? 2433 Not nonsense to keep imagining what nobody can see?" |
2433 | Now for the girl: who knows about it? |
2433 | Now tell me, were you ever a ghost? |
2433 | Now tell me-- what can the art of writing, and its expansion, or perhaps its development rather, in printing, do in the same direction as necromancy? 2433 Now you know all about the book, do n''t you?" |
2433 | Now, Davie,said Donal,"what have you done since our last lesson?" |
2433 | Now, my lord,said Donal, following his example and sitting down,"will you hear me?" |
2433 | Of what consequence can my opinions be to you, ma''am? 2433 On a still day?" |
2433 | On what grounds then would he say so? |
2433 | One question more: what is faith-- the big faith I mean-- not the little faith between equals-- the big faith we put in one above us? |
2433 | Or frightened? |
2433 | Please, Mr. Grant,said Davie,"may I have a holiday?" |
2433 | Pray what could be the good of that except--? |
2433 | Required of him by what? |
2433 | Shall I try how he takes to trigonometry? 2433 Shall we go on the roof?" |
2433 | Should not the truth be found, whatever it may be? 2433 Suppose he found he had no will, for he could not do what he wished?" |
2433 | Suppose you had been in her image, what then? |
2433 | Suppose you said,''I daresay it is all as good as you say, but I do n''t care to take so much trouble about it,''--what would that be? |
2433 | Suppose you were to say nothing, but go away and do nothing of what I told you-- what would that be? |
2433 | Surely you will not leave me while--.--I thought-- I thought--.--What is it? |
2433 | Surely, Anerew,interposed his wife, holding up her hands in mild deprecation,"ye wudna lat the lassie du wrang gien ye could haud her richt?" |
2433 | Tell me something of your history: where were you born? 2433 The truth alone can be proved, my lord; how should a lie be proved? |
2433 | Then God disowns his children, and when they are the children of another, adopts them? 2433 Then are you not now going to do so?" |
2433 | Then did God repudiate them? |
2433 | Then how are they to be blamed for doing the deeds of their father? |
2433 | Then how should you know how a ghost would feel? |
2433 | Then perhaps it is not a chimney: is there any sign of soot about, Davie? |
2433 | Then she was nearer the image of God than you? |
2433 | Then this may be the varra wa''he biggit? |
2433 | Then what does he live for? |
2433 | Then what is surprising in it? |
2433 | Then what, in the name of God, have you done with my son? |
2433 | Then why does n''t every boy go to him when he ca n''t get fair play? |
2433 | Then why the devil kick up such an infernal shindy about it? |
2433 | Then you allow that it is horrible to think oneself under the influence of the vices of certain wicked people, through whom we come where we are? |
2433 | Then you can do nothing till the music comes again? |
2433 | Then you did really write it? |
2433 | Then you do n''t believe it? |
2433 | Then you have forgiven me? |
2433 | Then you intend neither to meddle nor make? |
2433 | Then you saw a difference between such a woman and your mother? |
2433 | Then you say there are more seeds than are required? |
2433 | Then you think there is no use in going up? |
2433 | Then you wo n''t ride to- day? |
2433 | Then-- then--"What, my lady? |
2433 | This''ll be the Morven Arms, I''m thinkin''? |
2433 | To- morrow then? |
2433 | Understand ignorance? |
2433 | Wad ye lat a stranger put in a word, freen''s? |
2433 | Wad ye objec''to maister ane by himsel''--or maybe twa? |
2433 | Was it very dreadful? |
2433 | Was there injustice than, or was there favour i''that veesitation o''the sins o''their father upo''them? |
2433 | We shall be able at least to see and hear, else where were the use of believing in another world? |
2433 | We shall have no more lessons this morning.--Was your papa with them? |
2433 | We''ll bide till the day comes.--But what are ye stan''in''there for? 2433 Weel, hoo are ye gettin''on wi''the yerl?" |
2433 | Weel, isna''t best to ken what''s intil''t? |
2433 | Weel, wad ye please tell me what ye ca''the justice o''God? |
2433 | Weel, what wad ye mak o''''t? |
2433 | Weel, yoong Eppy, hoo''s a''wi''ye? |
2433 | Well, what then? |
2433 | Well, young man,he said, looking up at him with concentrated severity,"what would you have me do?" |
2433 | Well-- where is the good of knowing that? |
2433 | Were you ever afraid, my lord? |
2433 | What address, please your lordship? 2433 What are sins, Davie?" |
2433 | What are you going to do with her? |
2433 | What are you two whispering at there? |
2433 | What bad things do you do? |
2433 | What book is that you are reading? |
2433 | What ca''they yon castel? |
2433 | What can that be? 2433 What can that be?" |
2433 | What did he die for? |
2433 | What did my father say? |
2433 | What did she say, Davie? |
2433 | What did you marry her for? |
2433 | What do you know about such things? 2433 What do you mean? |
2433 | What do you mean? |
2433 | What do you mean? |
2433 | What do you please to imagine I am doing now? |
2433 | What do you say to that place in the park where was once a mausoleum? |
2433 | What does he do? |
2433 | What does it all mean? |
2433 | What does it matter who said it? |
2433 | What else can it be, standing with the rest? |
2433 | What for no milk? |
2433 | What for no? |
2433 | What for thank ye God for that? |
2433 | What good then can there be in wanting to be learned? |
2433 | What if God be sending fresh light into the minds of his people? |
2433 | What if she knows I do not intend to marry her? |
2433 | What is behind that press there-- wardrobe, I think you call it? |
2433 | What is being wicked? |
2433 | What is his name? |
2433 | What is it? |
2433 | What is it? |
2433 | What is the matter? |
2433 | What kind of a book? |
2433 | What makes a thing your own, do you think, Davie? |
2433 | What makes you say that, mistress Brookes? |
2433 | What makes you think I forgive you, Davie? |
2433 | What name? |
2433 | What objection? |
2433 | What right have you to ask? |
2433 | What shall we do first? |
2433 | What should I say? 2433 What the deuce is that to you?" |
2433 | What the devil are you doing here? |
2433 | What then are all those beech- nuts under the leaves? 2433 What then would you say if the land were your own? |
2433 | What think you of that, sir? |
2433 | What time does he tell them? |
2433 | What times were those? |
2433 | What was it then, uncle? |
2433 | What was it? |
2433 | What was yon''at he said aboot the mirracles no bein''teeps? |
2433 | What were you doing there,she asked, with a strange mingling of expressions,"in such a night?" |
2433 | What were you doing this morning, uncle? |
2433 | What would you like best to do-- I mean if you might do what you pleased? |
2433 | What would you say to me? |
2433 | What would you think of me, Davie,Donal was saying,"if I were angry with you because you did not know something I had never taught you?" |
2433 | What''s that? |
2433 | What''s that? |
2433 | What? |
2433 | Whaur am I wantit, mother? |
2433 | Whaur are ye b''un''for, gien a body may speir? |
2433 | Whaur''s Eppy Comin, gien ye please? |
2433 | When shall we be married? |
2433 | When shall we set about it? |
2433 | When will you bring it me? |
2433 | When would you call a man learned? |
2433 | When you please, my lady.--To- night? |
2433 | When? |
2433 | Where are you, my lady? |
2433 | Where do you mean to pass the night? |
2433 | Where else is the music heard? 2433 Where is he gone?" |
2433 | Where is that, sir? |
2433 | Where is that? |
2433 | Where is the good of fancying what is not true? 2433 Where is the use then of being great?" |
2433 | Where shall we bury them? |
2433 | Where were you, my lady,asked Donal,"when you heard it? |
2433 | Where would Scotland be now but for resistance? |
2433 | Where''s the harm, my lady? 2433 Where''s your money?" |
2433 | Where? |
2433 | Whether that be good or bad? |
2433 | Which of us are you going to tell upon? |
2433 | Which side will you have-- the broad or the narrow? |
2433 | Which way are you going? |
2433 | Who has not that lives? |
2433 | Who is, then? |
2433 | Who said it then? |
2433 | Who taught you? |
2433 | Who will have the property now? |
2433 | Whom else could I mean? |
2433 | Whose children? |
2433 | Whose,insisted Donal,"are the children whom God adopts?" |
2433 | Why did you not open the arches? 2433 Why do n''t you cry to him to deliver you?" |
2433 | Why do things come right so often, do you think, Davie? |
2433 | Why do you ask me? |
2433 | Why do you live there? 2433 Why do you say they are lost? |
2433 | Why do you say-- might have been? |
2433 | Why do you tell me this? |
2433 | Why does he not work here rather than in the archway? |
2433 | Why else should he come and look till he find? |
2433 | Why is he so long about it? |
2433 | Why not? |
2433 | Why not? |
2433 | Why should I not? |
2433 | Why should it look dreadful if it is not dreadful? |
2433 | Why should you mind that? |
2433 | Why so? |
2433 | Why then should you trouble your fancy about them? |
2433 | Why will you not, Arctura? |
2433 | Why, Miss Carmichael, do you think the gospel comes to us as a set of fools? 2433 Why, did n''t you as much as offer to teach me the library? |
2433 | Why, my lord, who said that? |
2433 | Why, what the devil have you to do with it? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Why? |
2433 | Will any saying keep her from being so in love with you as to reap misery? 2433 Will it be safe for Davie?" |
2433 | Will peace come out of all storms? |
2433 | Will you come out a bit, Andrew,he said,"--if you''re not tired? |
2433 | Will you come with me? |
2433 | Will you dine with me to- night? |
2433 | Will you let me look at the passage? |
2433 | Will you mind being left? |
2433 | Will you tell her all about it? |
2433 | Will you tell me what you mean by saying you have no ambition? |
2433 | Would it be less mine,said Arctura,"if I was not at liberty to pull it all to pieces? |
2433 | Would not such precaution as that keep you from gaining a true knowledge of many things? 2433 Would she speak to you again if she heard you talking so of the love you give her?" |
2433 | Would that be faith in him? |
2433 | Would you always do what he told you? |
2433 | Would you have me marry the girl? 2433 Would you mind coming to my room? |
2433 | Would you mind coming to the place? |
2433 | Would you mind if I moved the wardrobe a little on one side? |
2433 | Would you not like, my lady,said Donal,"to come to the schoolroom this afternoon? |
2433 | Wrang!--in obeyin''my Maister, whase is the day, as weel''s a''the days? 2433 Wud ye du them a guid turn?" |
2433 | Wud ye hae me lat the lassie tak her chance ohn dune onything? |
2433 | Wull ye hae a drap mair? |
2433 | Ye dinna surely think God fillsna a''thing? |
2433 | Ye dinna think, than, there''s onything wrang in men''in''a pair o''shune on the Sabbath- day? |
2433 | Ye wadna hang the puir craturs, wad ye? |
2433 | Yes,she answered at once;"I should like it much!--Is there not something you could give me to do?--Will you not teach me something?" |
2433 | You are not going to leave me? |
2433 | You are not vexed with your pupil-- are you? |
2433 | You did not? |
2433 | You do n''t like it then? |
2433 | You do n''t mean there is anything like that in me? |
2433 | You do n''t mind if I make a little dust, my lady? |
2433 | You do n''t surely hint,said Donal,"that there''s anything between her and lord Forgue? |
2433 | You do not mind being left alone? |
2433 | You doubt my honour? |
2433 | You have never told her so?--never said or done anything to make her think so? |
2433 | You have not then been much about yet? |
2433 | You have probably guessed why I sent for you? |
2433 | You know as well as I do the word has many meanings? |
2433 | You know they say there is a hidden room in the castle, my lady? |
2433 | You think I should make my castle my husband? |
2433 | You will come out with me? |
2433 | You will not be afraid to be left then when I go down? |
2433 | You will not tell me his name? |
2433 | You will take good care of her, Davie? |
2433 | You will try again? |
2433 | You would not care to come there with me? |
2433 | You would not like having to give away your castle-- would you, Arkie? |
2433 | You would wish then to retire, my lord, I presume? |
2433 | You''ve been into it, my lady?--What-- what--? |
2433 | Your uncle? |
2433 | ''An''hoo are ye to help it, sir?'' |
2433 | ''Cause he seesna fit to gie me her I wad hae, is he no to hae his wull o''me? |
2433 | ''Did n''t you find a man''s head-- a skull, I mean, upon the premises?'' |
2433 | ''Did ye show''t ony disrespec''?'' |
2433 | ''That?'' |
2433 | ''Then is the head in the way of being buried and dug up again?'' |
2433 | ''Tis a night for all ghostly lovers To haunt the best- loved spot: Is he come in his dreams to this garden? |
2433 | ''What do you want with my child?'' |
2433 | ''What''s either but an appearance? |
2433 | --But had your uncle given you anything?" |
2433 | --But what is that?" |
2433 | --But, Mr. Grant, why should you make Arkie speak to me too?" |
2433 | --How much did you drink, sir-- if I may make so bold?" |
2433 | --Suppose now a man was unconscious of any ability to do the thing required of him?" |
2433 | --what would you say?" |
2433 | --would that be to believe in me?" |
2433 | A bed in a chapel, and one dead thereon!--how could it be? |
2433 | All the time her acceptance and defence of any doctrine made not the slightest difference to her life-- as indeed how should it? |
2433 | An''syne what wud the earl say? |
2433 | An''what brings the guid man til''s senses, div ye think? |
2433 | And are n''t you going to teach yourself to me?" |
2433 | And now what was she to conclude from his reading the Apocrypha? |
2433 | And was that again the sound he had followed, fainter and farther off than before-- a downy wind- wafted plume from the skirt of some stray harmony? |
2433 | And what would Sophia say? |
2433 | And why did it content him to have only his head above ground? |
2433 | And would it be more mine when I had pulled it to pieces, Davie?" |
2433 | And you ca n''t say he shuffles, for he never stops till he has done his best to make you!--What have you been saying to him, Hector?" |
2433 | And you wo n''t say any wicked things, will you? |
2433 | Anyhow, what was to be done? |
2433 | Are her fair feet bending the grasses? |
2433 | Are they not the children of the tree?" |
2433 | Are we never ta raise the han''to human bein'', think ye?" |
2433 | Are ye comin''in, or are ye no?" |
2433 | Are ye in want o''onything? |
2433 | Are you sure he is not plotting to devour sheep and shepherd together?" |
2433 | At what point did the aberration begin? |
2433 | Because I believe the Bible, do I believe everything that comes from the pulpit? |
2433 | Because she is mine, ought I of necessity to be enslaved to all her accidents? |
2433 | But I dare not ask mistress Brookes whether she saw me--""You do not imagine you were out of the room?" |
2433 | But I s''come to the table.--Wud ye alloo me to speir efter yer name, sir?" |
2433 | But Miss Carmichael, stepping forward, said,"Mr. Grant, I can not let you go till you answer me one question: do you believe in the atonement?" |
2433 | But are you not in danger-- you will pardon me for saying it-- of presumption?--How can all the good people be wrong?" |
2433 | But could the voice be from the spirit- land? |
2433 | But did he know mistress Brookes well enough? |
2433 | But did you come here in the dark?" |
2433 | But do you suppose I would take any situation on such a condition?" |
2433 | But from the deafness burst and trickled a faint doubtful stream: could it be a voice, calling, calling, from a great distance? |
2433 | But his lordship would see him-- and could Mr. Grant find the way himself, for his old bones ached with running up and down those endless stone steps? |
2433 | But how did it get in to my head?" |
2433 | But how was he to return? |
2433 | But how was it? |
2433 | But how would Forgue carry himself? |
2433 | But if Eppy would meet him, how could he or anyone help it? |
2433 | But if that had been the intent, what could the building of a wall, vaguely recollected by mistress Brookes, have been for? |
2433 | But is it not strange the heart should be less ready to believe what seems worth believing? |
2433 | But is there not something in your being able to write a poem like that about a garden such as you had never seen? |
2433 | But noo I hae a fauvour to beg o''ye-- no for my sake but for hers: gien ye hae the warnin'', ye''ll be wi''me whan I gang? |
2433 | But says he,''No, no, you must not go; who knows what it may be? |
2433 | But surely there was hope for that world yet!--for whose were the words in which its indwelling despair grew audible? |
2433 | But tell me one thing, my lord: if my lady''s horse was lame, how was it she did not know? |
2433 | But the gudewife was a religions woman after her fashion-- who can be after any one else''s? |
2433 | But was it ink? |
2433 | But were there not now just as many evils as then? |
2433 | But what can be the use of it?" |
2433 | But what for sud I no say I dinna see''t? |
2433 | But what was he to do? |
2433 | But why should my lord be frightened so?" |
2433 | But why was she so white? |
2433 | But would not you be sorry to lose another mystery?" |
2433 | But you will understand me?" |
2433 | But-- excuse me, Mr. Grant-- you will understand me presently-- are you-- are you quite--?" |
2433 | By degrees one might, you know,--eh?" |
2433 | By their own power? |
2433 | Ca n''t you teach me this great old castle? |
2433 | Ca n''t you understand a fellow? |
2433 | Can God be God and do anything conceivably to blame-- anything that is not altogether beautiful? |
2433 | Can it be that he suspects something? |
2433 | Can ye gie him a nicht''s lodgin''?" |
2433 | Can you imagine what place it might be?" |
2433 | Could anything be done that would not both be and cause a wrong? |
2433 | Could it have been a draught down the pipe of the music- chords? |
2433 | Could it have been drunkenness? |
2433 | Could they have visited all the places whose remembrance lingered in his brain? |
2433 | Could you not turn him loose upon sir Walter Scott?" |
2433 | Did he actually hear the words? |
2433 | Did you ever see an aeolian harp, my lady?" |
2433 | Did you never make yourself unhappy about what might be on its way to you, and wish you could know beforehand something to guide you how to meet it?" |
2433 | Do n''t you know that, besides being himself, and just because he is himself, Jesus is the living picture of God?" |
2433 | Do you believe yourself one to be so trusted?" |
2433 | Do you hear, Grant? |
2433 | Do you know where to find him?" |
2433 | Do you think Jesus came to deliver us from the punishment of our sins? |
2433 | Do you think if the devil could create, his children could ever become the children of God? |
2433 | Do you think it a good law, sir?" |
2433 | Do you think there is any instrument in it from which such a sound might have proceeded? |
2433 | Does God never visit the virtues of the father on the child? |
2433 | Does it always take so much labour?" |
2433 | Donal thought little of such things himself, but did that affect his duty in the matter? |
2433 | Donal''s bosom swelled with delight; then came a sting: was he already forgetting his inextinguishable grief? |
2433 | Examining it with his hands, he believed it the same he had ascended in the morning: even in a great castle, could there be two such royal stairs? |
2433 | Few indeed have reached the point of health to laugh at disease, but are there none? |
2433 | Five hundredth hand rather? |
2433 | For the question had come to him-- might not the music hold some relation with the legend of the lost room? |
2433 | For what can there be in heaven or earth for a soul that believes in an unjust God? |
2433 | For who is a god But the man who can spring Up from the sod, And be his own king? |
2433 | Gien a man ought to defen''himsel'', but disna du''t,''cause he thinks God wadna hae him du''t, wull God lea''him oondefent for that? |
2433 | God bless you!--You will let me think of you as a friend?" |
2433 | God is the causing Nature.--Tell me, is not the music heard only in stormy nights, or at least nights with a good deal of wind?" |
2433 | Grant!--Mustn''t he, Arkie?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Grant?" |
2433 | Had he any right to do anything? |
2433 | Had he in any way been the earl''s companion through such a long night as it seemed? |
2433 | Had he or had he not ever seen the place before? |
2433 | Had he really seen it? |
2433 | Had he remembered the fact, would he not have come to him to attempt securing his complicity? |
2433 | Had he sent her mother to think her full of roses? |
2433 | Had her presence dispelled darkness and death, and restored the lost chapel to the light of day? |
2433 | Had it been slowly coming without his knowing it? |
2433 | Had she haunted it ever since, dead yet alive, watching for his return to pardon him? |
2433 | Had she sought refuge there from some persecutor? |
2433 | Had the woman-- for Donal imagined the form yet showed it the body of a woman-- been carried thither of her own desire, to die in a holy place? |
2433 | Had they not both a claim upon Donal for the truth? |
2433 | Hae ye ony w''y o''approachin''the place?" |
2433 | Haena ye to du as she tells ye? |
2433 | Harper?'' |
2433 | Have you any sins, Davie?" |
2433 | Have you been discovering anything more?" |
2433 | Have you brought Simmons with you?" |
2433 | He could hardly believe it? |
2433 | He might be a priest in the temple; but was there not a Samuel in the temple as well as an Eli? |
2433 | He might think little of money, but would he therefore look on while a pocket was picked? |
2433 | He put out his hand to him, and said,"You''ll stand my friend, Grant?" |
2433 | He that hath seen me hath seen the father, and how sayest thou then, Show us the father?''" |
2433 | He thought she needed not have run away as from something dangerous: why did she not pass him like any other servant of the house? |
2433 | He was gazing into a void-- was it not rather a condition of things inappreciable by his senses? |
2433 | Head and all must soon follow.--But how am I to get rid of this plaster without being seen?" |
2433 | His lordship maun be loot ken, as ye say; but wull his lordship believe ye, sir? |
2433 | How can you worship a God who gives you all the little things he does not care much about, but will not do his best for you?" |
2433 | How could he be asleep so early in the night? |
2433 | How could she? |
2433 | How do you know it?" |
2433 | How is a Graeme to serve under a bumpkin?" |
2433 | How is a power to be known but by being a power, and how is it to be a power but in its own exercise of itself? |
2433 | How many would loathe the sin? |
2433 | How many would remain capable of doing all again? |
2433 | How quickest could he go? |
2433 | How should such a one either enjoy or recommend her religion? |
2433 | How then am I made in his image? |
2433 | How then should they be beyond his reach? |
2433 | How was he to feel sure of it? |
2433 | How was she able to love the God she said she believed in? |
2433 | How was she ever to know? |
2433 | How was she to be accepted of God, who did not accept her own neighbour, but looked down, without knowing it, upon so many of her fellow- creatures? |
2433 | How was she to know that he could not even feed himself? |
2433 | How was she to please God, as she called it, who thought of him in a way repulsive to every loving soul? |
2433 | How was she to think aright with scarce a glimmer of God''s truth? |
2433 | How?" |
2433 | I doubt if her love was of the deepest she had to give; but who can tell? |
2433 | I left her fast asleep, and I hope she''ll sleep through it.--Did you ever hear anything strange about the house before we came?'' |
2433 | I must think it all over!--It was after his wife''s death, you say?" |
2433 | I thoucht wi''mysel'', is''t possible she disna believe me? |
2433 | I trust you have not brought Davie with you?" |
2433 | I''ll go an''get it, my lady.--But wouldna''t be better for you and me, sir, to get a''that dune by oorsel''s? |
2433 | If I did not do my best for the poor girl, I dared not look my Master in the face!--Where is your honour, my lord?" |
2433 | If I were to make a creature needing all my love to make life endurable to him, and then not be kind enough to him, should I not be cruel? |
2433 | If a fact, how could it have been? |
2433 | If a fancy, how was he so weary? |
2433 | If ever we hear a far- off rumour of angel- visit, it is not from some solitary plain with lonely children? |
2433 | If he thought he was doing so well with Davie, why not send the two away together till things were settled? |
2433 | If she died there, would Donal come one day and find her? |
2433 | If there are in it rogues that look like honest men, how is any one, without a special gift of insight, to be always sure of the honest man? |
2433 | If there should be ever so slight a leaning in the direction, might he not so give a sudden and fatal impulse? |
2433 | If you admire her so much you must have behaved to her so much the more like a genuine lover? |
2433 | If you saw a great dark cloak coming along the road as if it were round somebody, but nobody inside it, you would be frightened-- would you not?" |
2433 | In the epistle to the Galatians, whose child does he speak of as adopted? |
2433 | Is he not the Lord God merciful and gracious?" |
2433 | Is it down in the dungeon of the castle, my lady?" |
2433 | Is it in the farthest corner of the room? |
2433 | Is it necessary to say she was not a weak woman? |
2433 | Is it not enough to know that if the devil were the greater, yet would not God do him homage, but would hang for ever on his cross? |
2433 | Is it not the evil thing?" |
2433 | Is it such? |
2433 | Is it true, Mr. Grant, that you are a dangerous man? |
2433 | Is not the great misery of our life, that those dear to us die? |
2433 | Is that a thing Jesus would have done when he was a little boy?" |
2433 | Is there any way of truly or worthily receiving a message without understanding it? |
2433 | Isna the blin''man to say he''s blin''?" |
2433 | It came as of itself to her lips, and she said,"Mr. Grant, how are we to know what God is like?" |
2433 | It''s agreed I canna be the same: if I canna be the same, I maun aither be less or greater than I was afore: whilk o''them is''t to be? |
2433 | Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? |
2433 | Ken ye ony dacent, clean place, whaur they wad gie me a room to mysel'', an''no seek mair nor I could pey them?" |
2433 | May not a man well long after personal communication with this or that one of the greatest who have lived before him? |
2433 | Might a man so lose hold of himself as to be no more certain he had ever possessed or could ever possess himself again? |
2433 | Might he not poison her, smother her, kill her somehow, anyhow that was safest? |
2433 | Miss Carmichael looked at lady Arctura as much as to say--"Is he speaking the truth?" |
2433 | Mr. Carmichael was older, and might be more experienced; but did his light shine clearer than Donal''s? |
2433 | Mr. Grant would like to have your advice as to what--.--You''ll come and see them, wo n''t you?" |
2433 | Must God be ever on the cross, that we poor worshippers may pay him our highest honour? |
2433 | Must I, because I love her, hoard her gowns and shoes?" |
2433 | My uncle--""Shall we go into the picture- gallery?" |
2433 | Naebody there? |
2433 | Noo, wad ye no say this was a veesitin''o''the sins o''the father upo''the children?" |
2433 | Now where is the beginning of this marble?" |
2433 | Now you are safe!--You were not afraid, were you?" |
2433 | Now, I ask you, Davie, was it worth while for Jesus to do this for us? |
2433 | Of course Lazarus was going to die again, but can you think his two sisters either loved him less, or wept as much over him the next time he died?" |
2433 | Oh, why would not God tell her something about himself-- something direct-- straight from himself? |
2433 | On the other hand it may have been known to many who held their peace about it.--Would you not like to know the truth concerning that too?" |
2433 | Only the spiritual and the natural blend so that we may one day be astonished!--Would you like to join the music- hunt, my lady?" |
2433 | Only what was a poor girl to do who did not know how to feed herself, but apply to one who pretended to be able to feed others? |
2433 | Opening it-- was it a thinner darkness or the faintest gleam of light he saw? |
2433 | Or gien a body stan''s up i''the name o''God, an''fronts an airmy o''enemies, div ye think God''ill forsake him''cause he''s made a mistak? |
2433 | Or is God less beautiful and good than that?" |
2433 | Or might there not be somebody else? |
2433 | Or was it a stilled human moaning? |
2433 | Ought a woman to get rid of it, or attend to it herself?" |
2433 | Ought the chance to be allowed the nameless youth of marrying his cousin? |
2433 | Ought the next heir to the lordship to go without his title? |
2433 | Sae ye see, sir, we''re like John Sprat an''his wife:--ye''ll ken the bairns''say aboot them?" |
2433 | Said Davie,"Must a woman, Mr. Grant, marry a man she does not love?" |
2433 | Said the worm at his side, Sweet fool, Turn to thy bride; Is the night so cool? |
2433 | Shall I go and fetch Miss Carmichael?" |
2433 | Shall I go on, and see what it is?" |
2433 | Shall I stay to look on her nearer? |
2433 | Shall we leave it for the present?" |
2433 | She did not know she could: how should she? |
2433 | She had been listening intently: was the cloven foot of Mr. Grant''s heresy now at last about to appear plainly? |
2433 | She had heard the music, she said-- very soft: would he go on the roof? |
2433 | She lay quiet, slowly waking to fuller consciousness.--Was there not a strange air, a dull odour in the room? |
2433 | She started: had she not heard it a hundred times before, as she lay there in the dark alone? |
2433 | She tried to unclasp it, but could not: which of her bracelets could it be? |
2433 | Should I be able?" |
2433 | Should he tell the earl, or should he not? |
2433 | Simmons tells me I may have as much coal and wood as I like: will you help me to get them up?" |
2433 | So I can not tell a bit what God is like? |
2433 | So long as she is able still to love, she is never quite to be pitied; but when the reaction comes--? |
2433 | Some ghaists hae a cat- like natur for places, an''what for no for banes? |
2433 | Something must be true: why not the worthy-- oftener at least than the unworthy? |
2433 | Suddenly he stopped: were those the sounds of a scuffle he heard on the road before him? |
2433 | That a wall had been built he did not doubt, for he believed he knew the wall, but why? |
2433 | That which is confessedly false and worth nothing?" |
2433 | That would account for a good deal-- would it not?" |
2433 | That''s no the w''y o''his kingdom!--I suppose there''s nae doobt wha?" |
2433 | The branch which could produce such scions, might well be itself a false graft on the true stem of the family!--if not, what was the family worth? |
2433 | The earl himself wrote in reply, saying-- had he been out of the country that he did not know she was dead and six weeks in her grave? |
2433 | The end must come, and what will it be? |
2433 | The father might have a right to know, but had he a right to know from him? |
2433 | Then how am I to love him? |
2433 | Then how did it get into the place? |
2433 | They''re weel eneuch worth duin''the best I can for them; but the morn''s Sunday, an''what hae ye to put on?" |
2433 | Those high, intense, burning tones-- so soft, yet so certain-- what are they? |
2433 | Unreal knowledge is worse than ignorance.--Would not Miss Graeme be a better friend?" |
2433 | Wad he say things''at he didna mean fowk to un''erstan''whan he said them?" |
2433 | Wad ye direc''me to the manse?" |
2433 | Was God indeed to be reached by the prayers, affected by the needs of men? |
2433 | Was anything required of him? |
2433 | Was he in a terrible dream? |
2433 | Was he not more childlike, more straightforward, more simple, and, she could not but think, more obedient than those? |
2433 | Was he the fool of weariness and excitement, or did he actually hear his own name? |
2433 | Was he to hold his tongue and leave the thing as not his, or to speak out as he would have done had the case been his own? |
2433 | Was it God coming to her? |
2433 | Was it a lost music- tone that had wandered from afar and grown faint? |
2433 | Was it a moan of the river from below? |
2433 | Was it a rude utterance? |
2433 | Was it a vision she had had? |
2433 | Was it anything? |
2433 | Was it not while we were yet sinners that he poured out his soul for us? |
2433 | Was it one of those mysterious sounds he had read of as born in the air itself, and not yet explained of science? |
2433 | Was it then true? |
2433 | Was it there, or had he only imagined it? |
2433 | Was it, I say, a thing worth doing, to let us see that they are alive with God all the time, and can be produced any moment he pleases?" |
2433 | Was not that another glimmer on the floor-- from the back of the room-- through a door he did not remember having seen yesterday? |
2433 | Was she going out of her mind? |
2433 | Was she going to die? |
2433 | Was she there to assure him that he might yet hope for the world to come? |
2433 | Was the man out of his mind, or only a sleep- walker? |
2433 | Was the thing a fact or a fancy? |
2433 | Was there anything very strange about it last night? |
2433 | Was there no sin of murder on his soul? |
2433 | Was this a case of the sins of the father being visited on the child? |
2433 | We know very little about these things; but what if the brain give the opportunity for the action which is to result in freedom? |
2433 | We love one another, not ourselves-- don''t we, Davie?" |
2433 | We will call upon her another day.--It is funny, is n''t it, Davie, to go a bird''s- nesting after music on the roof of a house?" |
2433 | What a priori reason do you see why I should not be able to write verses? |
2433 | What business had ye to come efter me this gait, makin''mischief''atween my lord an''me? |
2433 | What can be o''mair importance nor doin''richt i''the sicht o''God?" |
2433 | What could be done? |
2433 | What could he do? |
2433 | What could he do? |
2433 | What could it mean? |
2433 | What could it mean? |
2433 | What could it mean? |
2433 | What could ye lat me hae''t for by the week? |
2433 | What do you know about horses?" |
2433 | What do you think, Davie?" |
2433 | What does it mean? |
2433 | What for sud I threip''at I oucht to hae her? |
2433 | What for sudna I be disapp''intit as weel as anither? |
2433 | What gives you a right to speak?" |
2433 | What ground could such a parent have to complain of his children?" |
2433 | What had befallen him? |
2433 | What hae we sic as yersel''set ower''s for, gien it binna to haud''s i''the straicht path o''what we''re to believe an''no to believe? |
2433 | What idea can a man have of religion who knows nothing of it except from what he hears at church?" |
2433 | What if I imagine myself set in charge over young minds and hearts? |
2433 | What if I know you better than the good man whose friendship for your parents gives him a kind interest in you? |
2433 | What if there should come to him no answer? |
2433 | What if there should, without the brain, be no means of working our liberty? |
2433 | What is the imagination here for?" |
2433 | What king was it, sir, that made the law that no lady, however disagreeable, was to have her ears boxed? |
2433 | What matters the word but for the spirit? |
2433 | What might be the cause of it? |
2433 | What might not a man in the mental and moral condition of the earl, unrestrained by law or conscience, risk to secure the property for his son? |
2433 | What ought he to attempt? |
2433 | What salary do you want?" |
2433 | What should he do? |
2433 | What was Donal to do or think now? |
2433 | What was he then?" |
2433 | What was he to do? |
2433 | What was he to do? |
2433 | What was he to do? |
2433 | What was it I told you?" |
2433 | What was it to him? |
2433 | What was it? |
2433 | What was it? |
2433 | What was required of him? |
2433 | What would the earl think of him? |
2433 | What''s a poet?" |
2433 | What''s any thing of all the damned humbug but appearance? |
2433 | Whaur wull ye be?" |
2433 | When at last he lay quiet,"Will you promise to walk out if I let you up?" |
2433 | When he calls my name shall I not answer?" |
2433 | When he puts joy in my heart, shall I not be glad? |
2433 | When he stopped,--"Now have you eased your mind?" |
2433 | When it was ready,"Now, my lord,"said Donal,"will you come?" |
2433 | When what may be makes no show, what more natural than to imagine about it? |
2433 | When you are my teacher, Davie, I try-- don''t I-- to do everything you tell me?" |
2433 | Whence then this sense of something akin to shame? |
2433 | Where is the refuge of the child who fears his father? |
2433 | Where was the use of giving in, when I kept her in hand so easily that way? |
2433 | Who dared make changes in his house? |
2433 | Who knows what the thing we call air is? |
2433 | Who would know the shape of a chair who took his idea of it from its shadow on the floor? |
2433 | Whose fault is that?" |
2433 | Why did n''t you come and wake me, Davie, my boy?" |
2433 | Why had he such a fancy for his old bones? |
2433 | Why her mother? |
2433 | Why say all you think?" |
2433 | Why should I fear the best thing that, in its time, can come to me? |
2433 | Why should he be ashamed of anything coming upon him from without? |
2433 | Why should he move? |
2433 | Why should she only hear of him at second hand-- always and always? |
2433 | Why should the dead haunt their bones as if to make sure of having their own again?" |
2433 | Why should we draw his plough?" |
2433 | Why should you compel a confession of my faith?" |
2433 | Why should you want to learn me?" |
2433 | Why should you want to write one?" |
2433 | Will it be in the library?" |
2433 | Without means, what was he to do? |
2433 | Would God leave his creature who trusted in him at the mercy of a chance-- of a glass of wine taken in ignorance? |
2433 | Would I not be to blame? |
2433 | Would his factor otherwise have dared such liberties with him, the lady''s guardian? |
2433 | Would his wife so receive him at the last with forgiveness and endearment? |
2433 | Would it have been a breach of your promise if you had gone to the castle on some service to the man you almost murdered? |
2433 | Would she be prudent, or spoil everything by precipitation? |
2433 | Would she claim his promise thence, tempting him thither? |
2433 | Would she start and vanish away? |
2433 | Would that be like a father? |
2433 | Would the souls of the mariners shipwrecked this night go forth into the ceaseless turmoil? |
2433 | Would they then be victorious over God, too strong for him to overcome-- beyond the reach of repentance? |
2433 | Would you have done it?" |
2433 | Would you like some now? |
2433 | Would you say you had it solely for your own and your family''s good, or for that of the tenants as well?" |
2433 | Wouldst thou lie like a stone till the aching morn Out of the dark be born? |
2433 | Ye hae seen a mither ower her wee lassie''s sampler? |
2433 | You can examine it when you please.--If only you could find my bad dream, and drive it out!--Will you come now?" |
2433 | You did n''t think I was afraid of him?" |
2433 | You did not really see anything, did you?" |
2433 | You do n''t mind, do you?" |
2433 | You have testimonials?" |
2433 | You said you heard the music in your own room: would you let me look about in it a little? |
2433 | You say he hears prayer: why should n''t you ask him? |
2433 | You threaten to leave the house-- can you pay for a railway- ticket?" |
2433 | You will not obey my orders: am I to obey yours?" |
2433 | You''ll do as you please-- will you? |
2433 | and I think that is what we must come to.--But where shall we bury them?--where they lie, or in the garden?" |
2433 | and on the altar what was hardly more than the dusty shadow of a baby?" |
2433 | and once in possession of the property, who would dispute the title? |
2433 | and why then should I want to hurt him?" |
2433 | are you? |
2433 | but because you love his memory must I regard him as a Solon? |
2433 | could she be down in the chapel? |
2433 | cried his lordship almost eagerly;"you intend giving your life to teaching?" |
2433 | cried his lordship, glad to turn at right angles from the path of the conversation;"you do n''t surely believe in that legendary personage?" |
2433 | did you say, Stephen? |
2433 | dinna ye ken, sir? |
2433 | do n''t you know that yet? |
2433 | does he wear his sheepskin so well? |
2433 | hae na ye h''ard?" |
2433 | he asked reproachfully:"do you not feel well?" |
2433 | he kept repeating to himself; but what was it? |
2433 | or how far can it be called free, consistently with the notion of a God over all?" |
2433 | repeated the clergyman, with something very like a sneer;"--but what if I think that all a very great deal? |
2433 | returned Andrew,"what ken ye aboot what''s no i''scriptur''? |
2433 | said Donal sternly,"if you saw any impropriety in the ceremony, why did you perform it? |
2433 | said Donal:"what could necromancy, which is one of the branches of magic, do for one at the best?" |
2433 | second hand? |
2433 | she''ll get it the easier oot o''her hert? |
2433 | something might suggest itself!--Is it the room I saw you in once?" |
2433 | that to know yourself may be your hell? |
2433 | that you may come to make it your first care to forget what you are? |
2433 | thought Donal with himself;"an old withered grief looks almost as pitiful as an old withered joy!--But who is to say either is withered? |
2433 | wha ever saw him cheenge word wi''brither man?" |
2433 | what else are we offered in Jesus but the absolutely human? |
2433 | what is that behind you?" |
2433 | what was that shape in the middle?--what was that on the black pillow?--what was that thick line stretching towards one of the head- posts? |
2433 | what were your parents?" |
2433 | what''s come o''the bairn?'' |
2433 | where and how was it to be met? |
2433 | will you preach to me?" |
2433 | would a man deny his own father or mother?" |
2433 | you have seen something?" |
2433 | you would not have God against you?" |
