5565	Before how many saints, and many another whom your Church desires to honour, do you bow the knee?
5565	If you had a son,asked Don Luis,"would you receive her gladly as a daughter- in- law?"
5565	Then,asked Wolf,"you boldly deny any saving power to good works?"
5565	What are we to think of the foe of heresy who exchanges tender kisses with the wife of the most energetic leader of Protestantism?
5565	Adrian started, and answered firmly:"For him, it seems to me, she will perhaps be the right one, for what power could she assert against his?
5565	And do you wish to know what Jesus Christ, the Son, is to me?
5565	But is it not the old house, and that alone, in which the martyrs shed their blood for Christianity?
5565	But what led the singer-- you know whom I mean-- to the same house?"
5565	But who had sought his life with this dainty steel blade?
5565	Had not Jesus Christ made the surrender of every old relation and the following after him the duty of those who were to become his disciples?

5565	The only question is, What the Saviour still is to you Protestants, what he is to you, my friend?"

5566	Are you really so inexorable about the dance?
5566	Does not every one who gazes at your beauty or listens to your song become such a monster, at least in thought?
5566	Will not the heretics themselves gradually feel that they are robbing the pasty of faith of its truffles-- what am I saying?--of its salt? 5566 And she, what could she do to win back the man who held every fixed resolve as firmly as the rocks of the cliff hold the pine which grows from them? 5566 But need she idly wait for the doom to which she was condemned? 5566 But what was the meaning of this? 5566 How could they know that she was more to the Emperor than the artist whose singing enraptured him? 5566 How should he not have heard gladly that the monarch, at every interview with Barbara, listened to her singing with special pleasure? 5566 How should she have noticed the scornful glances which her unrestrained vivacity elicited? 5566 How would it be when war actually came? 5566 If the luckless star was connected with it, why had he not blamed her openly? 5566 Of what use would it be if she had lost it, lost it forever? 5566 Or did the gentlemen consider that she deserved punishment for not treating Martina more kindly? 5566 Suppose she should summon courage to steal back to him and on her knees repentantly beseech him to forgive her? 5566 Suppose that she should profit by the wish he showed so plainly, and through jealousy bind the man whom she loved anew and more firmly than ever? 5566 Suppose the woman he loved did not accept them? 5566 Was his anger roused by the boldness of the city magistrates, who dared to favour the Saxon escutcheon and banners so openly? 5566 Was she no longer the love of the man who reigned over everything here? 5566 Was she not free, or when had she placed herself under obligation to render blind obedience to her lover? 5566 What did she care for the exhibition which was about to begin? 5566 What did she care for the magnificent robe if she regained Charles''s love? 5566 What did the nations of the earth know about him? 5566 What had happened more than she had expected? 5566 What had life to offer her without his love? 5566 Who would have ventured to apply this motet to the brave and clever Saxon, high as he, too, towered above most of his peers? 5566 Why had she not dared to confess the fault which, from a good and certainly pardonable impulse, she had committed? 5566 Why should not she, too, succeed in accomplishing a well- considered plan? 5566 Yet what did she care for them and their behaviour? 5566 Yet what gave these women the right to condemn her? 5561 And did not the conviction that he is in evil case force itself upon you?"
5561	And these things? 5561 And which remind you of Queen Juana, our unhappy mother?"
5561	But Wawerl,he interrupted dejectedly,"what could be better than true, loyal love?
5561	How can you talk so about your own mother?
5561	Inde- e- ed?
5561	Indeed?
5561	Is n''t it beautiful here?
5561	What was that?
5561	Would I as an honest man seek your hand if I had not made money enough to support a wife whose expectations were not too extravagant? 5561 And I? 5561 And besides, what more can the Emperor Charles gain, since there is no chance of obtaining the sovereignty of the world, of which he once dreamed? 5561 And do you know what gave you those few white hairs? 5561 And where are the millions which this excellent economist saves from his personal expenses? 5561 And you? 5561 But have I even the slightest knowledge of what you obtained abroad or what awaits you here?
5561	But was the stately city before him really his home?
5561	But what else can be done?
5561	But what have you there in your hand?
5561	But what should he do now?
5561	Did you see the Emperor yesterday after vespers?"
5561	Does n''t it just suit me, you little Wolf and great spendthrift?
5561	Has n''t the feather- head of those days become quite a charming young lady?"
5561	Have not you returned to the false doctrines with which your boyish head was bewildered in the school of poetry?"
5561	Have you given me even a single honest word of welcome?
5561	Here she hesitated and her eyes met his with distrustful keenness as she asked in an altered tone:"And you?
5561	How can others be interested in what befalls a lonely, quiet fellow like me?
5561	If you stand there already like a dumb sign- post, how will it be when I thoroughly turn your head like all the rest with my singing?"
5561	Is it anything pretty from Brabant?"
5561	Ought he to surprise her in this way?
5561	Suppose that he should find Wawerl below?
5561	The regent is graciously disposed toward you, and you praise her liberality, but do you yourself know the name of the office which you fill?
5561	Thus every year of government was equal to three of war; but you, Luis-- the question is allowable when put to a man- how old are you?"
5561	To whom did she owe this masterly training?
5561	Was it not utterly unprecedented?
5561	What had he expected from that parting hour-- the vow of eternal fidelity, a firm betrothal, ardent kisses, and a tender embrace?
5561	Who in Ratisbon could have been her teacher?
5561	Who in the world wrought this miracle with your voice?"
5561	Will you ever let your friend know what stirs your heart?"
5561	Wolf stooped, and, ere he had straightened himself again, he heard Barbara call in a questioning tone,"Father?"
5561	Yet how could it be otherwise?
5561	Yet what are you and the wise treasurer doing?
5561	You can not reasonably doubt that, and now, when the most sacred of bonds is in question, it ought--""It ought, you think, to satisfy me?"
5561	my poor, poor brother, who-- how long ago it is!--could once have thrown even you upon the sand, what can he do, with this accursed gout?
5570	A startling suspicion seized Barbara, and with anxious caution she whispered:"Do I see aright?
5570	Again, with the speed of lightning, the question darted through Don John''s mind:"Is this the woman whose voice, I was told, offended the ear?
5570	And I-- may I go with you?
5570	And his classmates and friends?
5570	And how did the rebels show their gratitude to him for his kindness and good will?
5570	But how would King Philip take it?
5570	Do you remember how they took him from me, Lamperi?
5570	Had he told her John of her entrance?
5570	How had Charles determined his fate?
5570	How had the happiness in which she fancied she saw him revelling been constituted?
5570	No?
5570	Ought they to wonder if another monarch, whom they had deeply angered, did not regard them as inviolable gifts of God?
5570	Should Barbara regard this as a good omen or an evil one?
5570	The words which he shouted to his retreating men:"Do you call yourselves Spaniards and not know what honour means?
5570	To secure splendour and grandeur for him, she had yielded to the most cruel demand, and what had been the result of this sacrifice?
5570	Was it possible that he still intended him for the monastic life, now that he had become acquainted with his talents and tastes?
5570	What could he mean by the"woe"after the"weal"?
5570	What did it avail that the King meanwhile left the government to the Council of State in Brussels?
5570	What gave it the air of such royal stateliness?
5570	What had he in view?
5570	What had she gained by it?
5570	What have you to fear when I am with you?"
5570	What is the warrior to do here?
5570	What more could now be given to him?
5570	What now awaited the omnipotent ruler''s son?
5570	What spirits were aiding the Prince of Orange to resist the King and the power of the Church so successfully?
5570	Who knows what the party has in store for you?
5570	Who, boy, do you think that I might be?''
5570	Why did her favourite of fortune bear these traces of former anxieties?
5570	Why should less honours await Charles''s son than his daughter?
5570	Why should she not have yielded to such hopes?
5570	Would you perhaps have preferred to see his Majesty''s mercy grant them their lives?''
5570	Yet he had scarcely raised his head again when he started, and in an agitated tone asked,''And Don Luis-- and my dear mother?''
5570	or, as she now signed herself,"Madame de Blomberg"?
5562	And did she give you hope?
5562	And what is that?
5562	But what do these impious wretches care about beautiful and sacred things? 5562 From Rome?"
5562	Where is he from, and what is his name?
5562	Who will see us in this little dark street?
5562	Why not, if your Majesty sends forth to seek it?
5562	Your time?
5562	And I?
5562	And she of whom seven years ago death had bereft him?
5562	And you are thinking of Wawerl?
5562	As his footsteps receded from her bedside, she pressed her lips more firmly together, thinking:"Why should I spoil his beautiful dream of happiness?
5562	But do you know the huge maggots she keeps under her golden hair?"
5562	But when the soul''s power of flight has failed, who will bestow the ability to traverse the half of the way allotted to it?"
5562	But who among the living would he have deemed worthy of them?
5562	Did she see him coming?
5562	Did she suspect who his companions were, and what awaited her through them?
5562	Did the sight of the silent brother alarm the sister?
5562	I suppose you have come to summon me to the table?"
5562	May I not linger at your side long enough to ask you one question, you severe yet ardently beloved maiden?"
5562	Of what consequence were the listeners before whom she had hitherto sung compared with those whose footsteps were now echoing on the lowest stairs?
5562	Ought he to blame her because she desired to change the life of poverty with her father for one which better harmonized with her worth and tastes?
5562	Singing is everything to her, and what else can I give the poor child?
5562	Then Pyramus Kogel changed his tone, and said bitterly:"So your victorious eyes were only carrying on an idle game with my unsuspecting heart?
5562	This place-- I will admit that it is ill- chosen-- but what other was open to me?
5562	What do I want there?
5562	What grander existence could earth offer?
5562	What is to become of the singing without Johann and Benevenuto?
5562	What reply would a woman with true love in her heart have made to such a demand?
5562	What was the probable value of this stately structure, this aristocratic imperial abode?
5562	Where had Appenzelder discovered the marvellous boy who sang this"Quia amore langueo"?
5562	Who could tell whether her surprise, instead of pleasing him, might not rouse his anger?
5562	Who the devil can philosophize with such twinges in the foot?"
5562	Who would trouble himself about me?
5562	Would he himself ever experience the relief which they were said to afford the human heart?
5562	Yet he waved back Luis Quijada with an angry glance and the sharp query,"Who summoned you?"
5562	You will not believe it?
5564	And that?
5564	And the result?
5564	And your Majesty did her the honour to feel her teeth?
5564	Business matters?
5564	Feel her teeth?
5564	For her?
5564	It will not?
5564	May I congratulate you on the really magical effect of your Majesty''s prescription?
5564	Shall I call her?
5564	The heretic''s wine,observed Dr. Hiltner, shrugging his shoulders regretfully, and then asked Wolf,"Do you know the queer fellow?"
5564	The splendid bouquet there-- do you suppose that she even looked at it? 5564 When she wheeled her horse to escape you?"
5564	Both will flow in streams, and, even if we were certain of victory-- which we are not-- what will the gain be?"
5564	But how could she retain this feeling if he no longer showed her that he, too, regarded her worthy of him?
5564	But how was it with the man who could trample them all in the dust like worms-- with her imperial lover?
5564	But if she imposed this constraint upon herself, would her love still remain the same?
5564	But one thing more: Do you know that his Majesty has just accepted the Marquise de Leria''s offer?"
5564	But what had followed her luckless regret about his lame foot?
5564	But whom should he trust to represent him?
5564	But why had not even one poor word from his own hand accompanied the summons?
5564	Do you know something, Luis?
5564	During this conversation?
5564	Had she, with her heart and her honour, also resigned her freedom to her lover?
5564	Had the power of love, or the magic spell which emanates from genuine royalty, forced her to silence?
5564	Has anything happened between you?
5564	How dared the man whom she had so positively and sternly refused venture to continue his suit?
5564	How did it happen that, if any affair of her own interested her, she always forgot what she owed to others?
5564	I bow to your masculine secrecy-- but why did my worldly- wise brother mingle a petticoat in this delicate business if he wishes to keep it hidden?"
5564	I have just come from his Majesty, and in what did I find him occupied?
5564	In doing so his glance fell upon Herr Schlumperger''s bouquet, and he wildly cried:"He?
5564	It was the greatest of all, the peril of losing him, for what would she be if he deserted her?
5564	Joy is the best thing in life, and who bestows it more certainly and lavishly than the little winged god?
5564	She was not in the habit of doing so at this hour, but the great favour shown her by the Emperor had probably gone to her head, and who could wonder?
5564	So, obeying a hasty impulse, he warmly extended both hands, and in a gentle, sympathizing tone exclaimed,"Wawerl, my dear girl, what troubles you?"
5564	Was she not, after all, under obligation to be grateful to him for everything for which she reproached him?
5564	What do you care for the tears of mothers and the blood of husbands and sons?
5564	What is the name of the cavalier, Malfalconnet, who spoke to you of the friendship which unites him to this brave old champion of the faith?"
5564	What should prevent her from becoming his now that he could promise an ample income?
5564	What would you think of an alliance between Leria and Blomberg?
5564	Where were they obtained, since April is scarcely past?
5564	Who had given the regent, to whom nothing attracted her, the right to dispose of her as though she were a chattel or her captive?
5564	Why did leaden weights seem to hang upon her soul when she attempted to soar upward?
5564	Why had he wounded her so deeply the night before?
5564	Why had his messenger been only a valet?
5564	Would Eve probably bite the apple of temptation also?"
5564	Would not the young nobleman accompany him?
5564	Yet what do we not at last forget?
5568	And he?
5568	Was Johanna beautiful?
5568	What can a poor girl give it save want and shame? 5568 Your sister?"
5568	And have you loved this wreck of a man with all the fervour of your heart?
5568	And suppose she should meet the Emperor Charles in Landshut, and be permitted to speak to him?
5568	And then what had brought her to this place and her companionship?
5568	But she quickly drew it back again; if any of her relatives should see her, what answer could she make to questions?
5568	But what did she care how they were called and who they were?
5568	But where, in Heaven''s name, would she be borne?
5568	Did he not possess the knowledge of everything that might have deterred another from wooing her?
5568	Did the Emperor intend to make her a prisoner?
5568	Had he learned what she feared to confess to him?
5568	Had she not showed him more than plainly how ill he had succeeded in gaining her affection?
5568	How was her father faring?
5568	Might not this admiration of his person be revived?
5568	Should she reject what the most powerful and wealthy sovereign in the world offered with contemptible parsimony?
5568	Suppose the Emperor Charles intended to lock her in one of these dungeons and withdraw her from the eyes of the world?
5568	Was there no room for unselfish love in the breast of any man?
5568	What could she, the poor, deserted, scorned toy of a king-- give to her child, and what the mightiest of the mighty yonder?
5568	What could such an amusement be to her now?
5568	What did this mean?
5568	What had befallen him, and what had the recruiting officer to tell of his fate?
5568	What should she do?
5568	Where were they taking her?
5568	Who could guard her from this horrible fate?
5568	Who gave her the right to commit so great, so execrable a robbery?
5568	Who would dare to resist him?
5568	Why do you care for one who can never love you, and to whom you will appear insignificant to the end?"
5568	Why should she spoil the delightful drive with her friend, which, besides, was nearly over?
5568	Would he appear on horseback, or had he dismounted at the gate and was advancing on foot?
5568	Would he now raise his eyes to her, though but for a brief space?
5568	Yet was it she who summoned him?
5568	could you even now expect from him a fairer happiness than from all these handsome warriors and nobles in the pride of their manly vigour?
5568	dare I, who already love it more than my own life, rob it of the happiness to which it has a right?
5568	the girl asked herself; does it still throb faster for him?
5568	who could prevent him from keeping her buried alive during her life?
5563	And may I perhaps also hope that it gives you pleasure to grant my entreaty?
5563	And, in spite of the praise of the gracious mother of God, a Protestant, like the other fools in this country?
5563	But the substitute, the admirable substitute?
5563	Desert?
5563	Has she already associated with the gentlemen of the court?
5563	Jest, or earnest?
5563	Of what rank?
5563	The German?
5563	The rats,repeated the old woman incredulously; and then, without moving her lips, thought:"Rats that shut the door behind them?
5563	What is his name?
5563	And for what boon could she beseech the Queen of Heaven?
5563	And she forbade you too, Malfalconnet, to give me your confidence?"
5563	And the second, less powerful voice, which accompanied her, was that a girl''s too?
5563	And you, maiden, you will not belie this hope?"
5563	But we, how are we to explain such a denial of an accomplished fact?"
5563	Could there be a greater happiness?
5563	Does her appearance harmonize with her voice?"
5563	Her warning,"Where are you, my darling?"
5563	How can this ardent yearning take root in my seared soul and grow so vigorously?"
5563	How it mastered me, who can describe?
5563	No?
5563	So, fairest of the fair, you refuse to acknowledge our glorious victory?
5563	Then he passed his hand across his lofty brow, and in a different tone asked Wolf,"So it is a girl, and a native of this city?"
5563	Then the cruel, tyrannical baton struck the wood a second time, and---- But what did this mean?
5563	Then, drawing herself up to her full height, she passed her hand across her brow and defiantly exclaimed:"And why should I think and ponder?
5563	Were the days to return when, in the Netherlands, Charles had condescended to treat even humble folk with blunt familiarity?
5563	What brings the Wolf in sheep''s clothing to us?"
5563	What had the syndic in view?
5563	What if the violent throbbing of her heart should silence her voice?
5563	What more had the woman, to whom the Emperor''s heart belonged, to desire?
5563	What was greater than the certainty of being beloved by the greatest of men?
5563	What was the big man doing here at this late hour?
5563	Whence could a boy learn the ardent, yearning longing of which that''Quia amore langueo''was so full?
5563	Would he really end the meal now?
5563	Would it not have been foolish to bear this intolerable, alarming mood until the midnight meal?
5567	As for the child, you still seem determined to withhold it from the man who will recognise it as his solely on this condition?
5567	But, so far as the convent is concerned, you persist in your refusal?
5567	Did the disease so cruelly mar this masterpiece of the Creator?
5567	Do you really think so?
5567	How?
5567	Is my strength of will, in your opinion, so far inferior to yours?
5567	To remain with the regent?
5567	And why, in Heaven''s name, why?
5567	And you?
5567	And you?
5567	But had not Dr. Mathys told him yesterday that the strongest remedial power was concealed in poisons, and that they were the most effective medicines?
5567	But who had ever addressed such a warning to her?
5567	But will she ever do what sensible people advise?
5567	Did it not seem as if she had intentionally done precisely what she ought most studiously to have left undone?
5567	Did she seem to him unworthy of being commended to the protection of the Queen of Heaven?
5567	Don Luis calmly allowed her to finish, and then asked:"So you refuse to take the veil?
5567	From kindness to me?
5567	Go out in this weather?
5567	Has he seen her?
5567	Have you gone crazy?
5567	How could one who had once dined at the table of the gods still relish the fare of mortals?
5567	If Heaven bestowed a son upon him, would not only the Church, but also the law, which he knew so well, refuse to recognise his rights?
5567	If her heart was still his, how could she have so inconsiderately favoured in his presence another, younger man?
5567	In short, you will not go to the convent?"
5567	In what form was he to clothe the bad news which he was bringing to the convalescent girl?
5567	It had given him hours of rapture; but were these joys worth the long repentance which was already beginning?
5567	No?
5567	Now she lowered her right hand, and with the question,"So this is what I must understand?"
5567	Ought he not to examine once more the reasons which had led him to this last resolution?
5567	Shall I myself ever grow accustomed to this discord?
5567	She was a woman, and a capricious one, too, and of what would not such a nature be capable?
5567	This plant took root only in a heart filled with love And his?
5567	To arouse his jealousy?
5567	Was he still angry with her?
5567	Was it conceivable that she loved him, after having wounded him, as if intentionally, by acts which she knew were detestable to him?
5567	Was it not as if she had expected to make a water- lily blossom in the sands of the desert?
5567	Were his wings broken, too, and did he desire only seclusion and quiet?
5567	What did the aspiring young musician seek with a nobleman''s wife in a lonely Spanish castle?
5567	What more must be done in this matter?
5567	What need he care for the opinion of the world?
5567	Why not?
5567	Why should you conceal it?
5567	Wo n''t you come to- morrow?
5567	Would Maurice impose greater moderation upon himself in political affairs?
5569	And his Majesty?
5569	And if his Majesty decides otherwise?
5569	And is the Emperor Charles satisfied with such a teacher for his son?
5569	And then?
5569	Do you really think so?
5569	Here in the Brabant palace?
5569	Is the man of the''More, farther,''also learning to be content?
5569	Then you have talked to the Emperor?
5569	What claims?
5569	What do you know about the boy''s mother?
5569	Where did you learn that?
5569	And now?
5569	And now?
5569	Are we not all born to suffer?"
5569	At this hour?
5569	Barbara shook her head angrily; but Wolf, noticing it, said:"He is the sovereign, and who would venture to withhold anything on which his will is set?
5569	Besides---- What right had this lady to the boy to whom Barbara gave birth, whose love would now be hers had it not been wrested from her?
5569	But what would it avail?
5569	But where were they taking her John?
5569	But where-- it is probably in the letter-- where is our child?"
5569	But why do I feed your vanity with such speeches?
5569	Could the Prince of Orange be destined to deal with the new king as Maurice of Saxony had treated his imperial father?
5569	Did Charles desire to rear it there to the grandeur and splendour for whose sake she had yielded him?
5569	Did it not seem as if her ardent royal partner of those days had become her avenger?
5569	Did not her little house look attractive and pretty?
5569	Did she find the way to the boy, and was your wife, who is usually a prudent woman, unwise enough to allow her to feast her eyes upon him?"
5569	Does it possess the power to render me happy?
5569	Had the father heard that she had discovered his abode, and did he wish to remove it from the mother whom he hated?
5569	Here he paused, and Barbara inquired uneasily,"And did he say nothing of Geronimo''s mother-- of me?"
5569	If he summoned up his courage and openly reproved her, she always answered in general terms, such as:"What do you mean?
5569	Nay, the gift would make her inferior to the poorest beggar, for who forbids the mendicant to utter his"May God reward you"?
5569	Or what shall it be called?"
5569	Other women would probably have thought him repulsively plain, but what did she care for his looks?
5569	She felt as if she must cry aloud to these good people:"What do you know about my lover''s kiss?
5569	Suppose that the gracious intercessor should punish her broken vow by raising her hand against the children sleeping there?
5569	The question,"For how long?"
5569	They were talking about the approaching abdication, and who knew the Emperor Charles better than these far- seeing men, who were so near his person?
5569	Was it being taken there merely that it might grow up a Castilian?
5569	Was this man chosen to avenge Charles''s sins upon his son and heir?
5569	What had Massi to do with him?
5569	What was the matter with her?
5569	Where can a suitable shelter for the boy be found in Spain?"
5569	Who is to take charge of him on the way?
5569	Why had she sent her boys away the day before, instead of showing them to the friend of her youth with maternal joy?
5569	Why should the boy be in Philip''s train?
5569	Why?
5569	Will you promise secrecy?"
5569	Would the resentment which, since the day before, had again filled her soul have permitted her to prevent it had she possessed the power?
5569	Yet what was the meaning of the compassionate manner with which she treated them, talked to them, spoke of them, until it nearly drove him frantic?
5569	You are aware of the paternal joys which await him through the boy Geronimo?"
5569	or,"Shall we envy them because they have entered life to endure pain and to die?"
15289	And but for that little bell, where should you be at this moment?
15289	And can you array me as your harpbearer, and alter this face and form of mine?
15289	And have I not? 15289 And leave you to perish alone?"
15289	And must this fatal feud last forever?
15289	And the Lady Margaret, from whom not a knight can boast a token, though all are striving to obtain one?
15289	And the castle?
15289	And the church?
15289	And what said the king?
15289	And who has written it?
15289	Are they in no danger from ill- disposed chieftains?
15289	Are you Gilbert de Hers?
15289	Are you here,continued his fair questioner, with more emphasis,"on a hostile mission?
15289	But could you not have prevented it?
15289	But is it not almost folly to trust the royal hypocrite to whom Suabia pays so heavy a tribute? 15289 But tell me first, has that young Gilbert seen the Lady Margaret?"
15289	Did you listen to that minion, Margaret?
15289	Do I seem happy?
15289	Do I seem overwhelmed with joy at my good fortune?
15289	Do you desire it for the love of God, and because our enmity displeases Him?
15289	Do you hold your reason more enlightened than that of His Holiness?
15289	Do you know me, Bertha?
15289	Do you remember Ailred of Zurich, the minnesinger?
15289	Do you remember me, my lady?
15289	Father,began the maiden, as they walked together,"when may we expect the duke?"
15289	Father,said the maiden to Father Omehr, who now stood at her at her pillow,"is Albert of Hers at home?"
15289	Friends?
15289	From what?
15289	Had the Lady Margaret recovered from her fright and fatigue?
15289	Had we not better wait until the rain abates?
15289	Has anyone hurt you?
15289	Has anything befallen you, sire?
15289	Have you sent for him?
15289	How fared Stramen Castle?
15289	How so?
15289	How was the chapel preserved?
15289	How?
15289	Is he yet consecrated?
15289	Is it not rather an exalted charity, of which you have no conception, and a Christian forgiveness which puts to shame your last ungenerous wish?
15289	Is my life nothing?
15289	Is the object of your visit fulfilled? 15289 Is there poison here?"
15289	May I ask the meaning of all this, without being referred to the prince of magic for an answer?
15289	Most humbly would I submit to His gracious interposition,said the duke, bending his head devoutly;"but can any human power prevent it?"
15289	No, my lord; are you unwell?
15289	Now, my son,he said,"tell me what in the world has brought you here alone?"
15289	Oh, what has become of those we left?
15289	Shall I go with you?
15289	Tell me, Gilbert de Hers,she said,"do you truly desire peace between us?"
15289	Tell me,said Albert of Hers, addressing Father Omehr,"did not the Pope revoke his pardon at this evident insincerity?"
15289	Then what has impelled you to this step? 15289 Then you will resign it?"
15289	To the other side of the drawbridge?
15289	To whom?
15289	What have we to do with that?
15289	What is your motive in coming here?
15289	What is your situation now,rejoined the missionary,"that you have anything else to expect than defeat and disgrace?
15289	What remains to His Holiness?
15289	When did he arrive?
15289	When?
15289	Where can they be?
15289	Where is Herman now?
15289	Where is she?
15289	Where?
15289	Where?
15289	Who are our assailants?
15289	Who are you?
15289	Who can prevent it?
15289	Who has sent you then?
15289	Who is that before us?
15289	Who is this you have brought us?
15289	Why have you come so mysteriously-- in such a strange disguise?
15289	Why? 15289 Will he soon be here?"
15289	You incorrigible trifler, can you disguise yourself as well now, as when you palmed yourself upon us all for the minstrel Guigo?
15289	You mean the death of Sir Sandrit''s brother?
15289	You refuse to surrender?
15289	Your wife and children are not out in this storm, I hope?
15289	And why should I return?
15289	Are we not safe?"
15289	Are you engaged in the prosecution of some criminal vow to injure us?
15289	Are you seeking vengeance on our house by stealth?
15289	But Father Omehr kept his seat, and said calmly:"Will your highness inform us more fully?"
15289	But how did you get this?"
15289	But tell me, when he endeavored to procure a divorce from Bertha, who prevented the criminal separation?
15289	But the moment her strange companion was silent, she minted to the knife, exclaiming:"Is this blood, Bertha?"
15289	But where was Gilbert, that he could not share in the blessed feast?
15289	CHAPTER V Fierce he broke forth:"And darest thou then To beard the lion in his den?
15289	Did you meet any one in the wood?"
15289	Feeling he could not long survive, Rodolph raised his head and asked, in a dying voice,"Whose is the day?"
15289	Gilbert started and stood still; then said, with cold contempt:"Do you flinch?"
15289	Has he been telling your fortune?"
15289	Have you come to draw blood?"
15289	He was far indeed from that exalted perfection of loving God for Himself alone; but who can predict what may spring from the mustard- seed?
15289	His first words, after hastily embracing Gilbert, were:"Where is the duke?"
15289	His son Henry, too, whom I knighted before the battle, and who won his spurs so nobly, how is he?"
15289	How long will virtue be accounted a crime?
15289	Is it an idle curiosity-- a mere piece of bravado?"
15289	Is there anything you would ask before leaving me?"
15289	Is this attenuated form all that remains of his noble, his beautiful, his darling Margaret?
15289	It was found( and how could it be otherwise?)
15289	My Lord of Stramen, do you remember the day we brought you your brother''s corpse?"
15289	Nothing?
15289	O nation miserable, With an untitled tyrant, bloody- sceptred, When shalt thou see thy wholesome days again?
15289	Selecting the groom who had announced the enemy, he whispered to him:"Do you wish to save your mistress?"
15289	Shall I stand still and tamely see them wreak their most unrighteous wrath upon my guiltless parent''s head?"
15289	Tell me-- what think you of it?"
15289	The Douglas in his hall?
15289	The clerks at his bedside conjured him not to rave in that manner; but he replied,"And why shall I not reveal what is clear to my soul?
15289	The great question was still undecided: Shall liberty or tyranny prevail-- barbarism or civilization?
15289	The missionary paused, unable to proceed, and then hurriedly exclaimed,"Who is to be his successor?
15289	This question depended upon the answer to another: Shall the Church of God be free or become the creature of temporal power?
15289	Throughout the empire the stern challenge was ringing:"Are you for the Pope or for the king?"
15289	To be reproached with having seduced my lord into danger, and then basely deserted him?
15289	Was it not as I have said?"
15289	Was it the boasted chivalry of Suabia?
15289	Was not this resistance to Henry expedient?
15289	Was she sick?
15289	Was the prophecy to be so swiftly consummated?
15289	What could she do now?
15289	What was the strain to him?
15289	When the youth entered the room with Margaret, Bertha, and his armed escort, the baron said, without any irritation:"Is this a Bohemian, my daughter?
15289	When they were a little within the wood, the palmer exclaimed"Can you find the road to Count Montfort''s?"
15289	Where is he?"
15289	Who has been impious enough to draw blood during the truce of God, upon the threshold of God''s sacred temple?"
15289	Why should not Sorbara be as magical a word as Thermopylà ¦?
15289	Will your harp weather this storm?"
15289	You certainly must feel its exalted piety?"
15289	Your father, I presume, is not anxious about their safety?"
15289	alone, Humbert?"
15289	exclaimed the youth, in a searching whisper,"would you like to play the minnesinger in this storm?"
15289	he exclaimed, bending forward to listen;"a horseman?
15289	this is wrong: I hope you have committed no violence?"
